The terms "two or more", "two or more than two", "two or more than three", and the like, do not exclude the presence of a single item or of two or more items.

[0051] The present application provides a laundry treating apparatus 1000, which can be a washing machine, a dryer, or the like, without limitation.

[0052] In some implementations, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 can be a washing machine, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The washing machine can be a drum washing machine, and the washing machine can be a single drum washing machine, or please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The washing machine can be a double drum washing machine, and of course, the washing machine can also be a multi-drum washing machine, without limitation.

[0053] The laundry treating apparatus 1000 includes a housing 1002 and a laundry containing member 1001, the outer drum of the laundry containing member 1001 is installed in the housing 1002 and connected with the housing 1002, the inner drum 1001b of the laundry containing member 1001 is provided with a containing space 10011 with an opening 10012, and the laundry can be placed in the containing space 10011, the housing 1002 is provided with a door body 1003 for opening or closing the opening 10012, so as to open or close the opening 10012, and then facilitate the taking and placing of laundry, and the sealing member 300 is used for sealing between the door body 1003 and the laundry containing member 1001, so as to ensure the sealing of the containing space 10011 when the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is working.

[0054] In the related art, the laundry containing member is installed in the housing in a buffering manner, and when the laundry treating apparatus is working, the laundry containing member will vibrate relative to the housing, and accordingly, the sealing member is provided with a plurality of wrinkles to adapt to the vibration of the laundry containing member, but dirt and bacteria are easy to breed at the wrinkles of the sealing member, and frequent cleaning is required, which increases the maintenance and cleaning cost.

[0055] To this end, the present application provides a laundry treating apparatus 1000.

[0056] As shown in Figure 5 The laundry treating apparatus 1000 includes a housing 1002, a laundry containing member 1001, an outer door 1003, and a seal member 300.

[0057] The laundry containing member 1001 is disposed in a space defined by the housing 1002, and includes an outer tub 1001a and an inner tub 1001b. The outer tub 1001a is disposed in the housing 1002 and fixedly connected to the housing 1002. The inner tub 1001b is rotatably installed in the outer tub 1001a, so that laundry can be placed in the inner tub 1001b, and then the laundry can be washed, spun, and the like by rotation of the inner tub 1001b. The inner tub 1001b has a receiving space 10011 with an opening 10012. The outer door 1003 is used to open or close the opening 10012, so that the opening 10012 of the inner tub 1001b can be opened or closed by the outer door 1003, thereby allowing the laundry to be put in or taken out.

[0058] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The outer door 1003 includes a door body 10031 and a door bowl 10032. The door body 10031 is movably connected to the housing 1002. The door bowl 10032 is connected to the door body 10031 and protrudes toward the opening 10012.

[0059] As shown in Figure 7 The seal member 300 includes a door seal portion 300a and a tub seal portion 300b. The seal member 300 is fixed at the opening 10012 of the outer tub 1001a. The tub seal portion 300b is connected to the outer tub 1001a. The door seal portion 300a is connected to the outer door 1003 when the outer door 1003 is closed. The tub seal portion 300b and the door seal portion 300a together seal the opening 10012 and the outer door 1003. For example, the door seal portion 300a is directly connected to the outer door 1003. The tub seal portion 300b can be directly connected to the outer tub 1001a or indirectly connected to the outer tub 1001a.

[0060] The door seal portion 300a is an annular piece coaxially disposed with the inner tub 1001b and connected to the tub seal portion 300b, as shown in Figure 5As shown, at least part of the door bowl 10032 penetrates the center hole of the annular sheet when the outer door 1003 closes the opening 10012, and the side of the annular sheet away from the outer cylinder 1001a abuts against the outer side wall of the door bowl 10032. It can be understood that the annular sheet has a certain thickness, so the annular sheet includes two end faces, an outer side wall and an inner side wall, the annular sheet is coaxial with the inner cylinder, the inner side wall of the annular sheet is the side wall away from the outer cylinder, and the outer side wall of the annular sheet is the side wall close to the outer cylinder. The side of the annular sheet away from the outer cylinder is the inner side wall of the annular sheet. The two end faces of the annular sheet are respectively an end face facing the opening 10012 and an end face away from the opening 10012.

[0061] Therefore, when the outer door 1003 closes the opening 10012, the side of the annular sheet away from the outer cylinder 1001a abuts against the outer side wall of the door bowl 10032 to seal the gap between the outer door 1003 and the edge of the opening 10012, so as to improve the sealing performance of the containing space 10011. It can be understood that the annular sheet refers to a ring-shaped sheet structure, that is, the end part in the axial direction of the annular sheet is a plane, which is beneficial to reducing the hiding of foreign matters and makes the structure of the sealing member 300 relatively simple, thereby reducing the maintenance and cleaning costs of the sealing member 300.

[0062] The cylinder sealing part 300b is a structure connected with the door sealing part 300a and in contact with the outer cylinder to seal the outer cylinder. For example, the cylinder sealing part is arranged on the outer periphery or the inner periphery of the door sealing part, or is arranged on the end face of the door sealing part and the end face of the annular sheet facing the opening 10012.

[0063] It can be understood that the overall volume of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 of the present application is relatively small, and the laundry containing member 1001 is also relatively small. When the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is working, the vibration transmitted from the outer cylinder 1001a to the outer shell 1002 is also relatively small. Therefore, the outer cylinder 1001a can be fixedly connected with the outer shell 1002, and it is not necessary to connect the outer cylinder 1001a with the outer shell 1002 through a suspension device, a damping and shock absorbing member or the like to reduce the vibration transmitted from the outer cylinder 1001a to the outer shell 1002. In this way, it is not necessary to arrange a wrinkle on the sealing member 300 to reserve a space for the movement of the outer cylinder 1001a.

[0064] In some implementations, the sealing member 300 can be made of silica gel, rubber or other materials capable of achieving sealing, which is not limited herein.

[0065] According to the laundry treating apparatus 1000 of the embodiments, when the outer door 1003 closes the opening 10012, the side of the annular piece away from the outer cylinder 1001a abuts against the outer side wall of the door bowl 10032 to seal the gap between the outer door 1003 and the edge of the opening 10012, so as to improve the sealing performance of the containing space 10011. Meanwhile, the door sealing part 300a is configured as the annular piece, i.e., the end in the axial direction of the annular piece is a flat surface, which is beneficial to reduce the hiding of foreign matters and simplify the structure of the sealing part 300, thereby reducing the maintenance and cleaning costs of the sealing part 300.

[0066] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 the end surface of the door sealing part 300a away from the opening 10012 is a sealing flat surface 301, which abuts against the door body 10031 when the outer door 1003 closes the opening 10012.

[0067] As described above, the door sealing part 300a includes two end surfaces, and the end surface away from the opening 10012 is the sealing flat surface 301. Thus, when the outer door 1003 closes the opening 10012, the side of the annular piece away from the outer cylinder 1001a abuts against the outer side wall of the door bowl 10032, and the sealing flat surface 301 abuts against the door body 10031, so that the door sealing part 300a and the outer door 1003 can be doubly sealed, thereby further sealing the gap between the outer door 1003 and the edge of the opening 10012, and improving the sealing performance of the containing space 10011.

[0068] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 the cylinder sealing part 300b is arranged at the end surface of the annular piece facing the opening 10012, and the cylinder sealing part 300b is arranged circumferentially around the axis of the central hole and is connected to the outer cylinder 1001a. Thus, the connection difficulty of the cylinder sealing part 300b and the outer cylinder 1001a can be reduced, and the cylinder sealing part 300b can be used to seal the opening 10012 of the outer cylinder 1001a while achieving the connection of the cylinder sealing part 300b and the outer cylinder 1001a.

[0069] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 the cylinder sealing part 300b is connected to the outer cylinder 1001a, which can improve the connection stability of the cylinder sealing part 300b and the outer cylinder 1001a, improve the sealing effect, and reduce the assembly difficulty.

[0070] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 further comprises an intermediate piece 600 fixed at the open mouth 10012 of the outer tub 1001a, the intermediate piece 600 comprising an end face extending from the outer edge of the outer tub 1001a to the central hole axis, and the tub sealing part 300b is engaged with the end face of the intermediate piece 600.

[0071] Thus, by arranging the intermediate piece 600, the tub sealing part 300b can be connected with the outer tub 1001a through the intermediate piece 600, and the tub sealing part 300b is engaged with the end face of the intermediate piece 600, so that the engagement structure engaged with the tub sealing part 300b is arranged on the end face, thus, the engagement structure engaged with the tub sealing part 300b does not need to be arranged directly on the outer tub 1001a, which facilitates to reduce the difficulty of arrangement.

[0072] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 As shown, the tub sealing part 300b is provided with the engagement groove 10013 in one of the end faces and the engagement protrusion 302 in the other one, and the engagement protrusion 302 is engaged with the engagement groove 10013.

[0073] For example, the tub sealing part 300b is provided with the engagement groove 10013 and the end face is provided with the engagement protrusion 302, or as shown in Figure 7 As shown, the end face is provided with the engagement groove 10013, and as shown in Figure 9 As shown, the tub sealing part 300b is provided with the engagement protrusion 302, and the engagement protrusion 302 is engaged with the engagement groove 10013 to realize the engagement of the tub sealing part 300b with the end face.

[0074] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 As shown, the engagement groove 10013 is open towards the direction away from the axis of the open mouth 10012.

[0075] For example, the cross section of the engagement protrusion in the axial direction of the inner tub can be substantially L-shaped, and the engagement groove is of a shape matched therewith. Thus, the engagement groove 10013 is open towards the direction away from the center of the open mouth 10012, so that the engagement protrusion 302 can be inserted into the engagement groove 10013 radially outside the open mouth 10012, thus, the sealing between the engagement protrusion and the engagement groove can be improved, and the arrangement of the engagement protrusion 302 does not occupy the inner space of the open mouth 10012, thus, the space utilization can be improved.

[0076] For example, the cross section of the engagement protrusion in the axial direction of the inner tub can be substantially "I" shaped.

[0077] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 10As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the clamping protrusion 302 is provided with at least one limiting protrusion 3021 for abutting against the inner wall of the clamping groove 10013. Exemplarily, the outer peripheral wall of the clamping protrusion is provided with two limiting protrusions for abutting against the inner wall of the clamping groove.

[0078] In this way, after the clamping protrusion 302 is clamped in the clamping groove 10013, on the one hand, the at least one limiting protrusion 3021 can improve the sealing between the clamping protrusion and the clamping groove, and on the other hand, the at least one limiting protrusion 3021 can abut against the inner wall of the clamping groove 10013 to achieve limiting cooperation, thereby improving the clamping stability of the clamping protrusion 302 and the clamping groove 10013, and reducing the risk of disengagement of the clamping protrusion 302 and the clamping groove 10013.

[0079] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12 The clothes treating apparatus 1000 further includes a pressing plate 400 for pressing the sealing member 300 to abut against the outer tub 1001a.

[0080] In this way, the sealing member can be pressed against the outer tub by the pressing plate in the axial direction of the inner tub, thereby enhancing the sealing between the sealing member and the outer tub.

[0081] Exemplarily, the sealing member can be fixed at the open mouth of the outer tub by the connection of the tub sealing part and the outer tub, or a fixing member other than the tub sealing part can be provided on the sealing member to fix the sealing member at the open mouth of the outer tub. The fixing member is, for example, a fixing lug provided at the outer periphery of the annular sheet. As described above, the annular sheet includes an end face facing the opening and an end face away from the opening, and the fixing lug can be provided at the outer periphery of the end face facing the opening.

[0082] Exemplarily, in actual assembly, a through hole can be provided on the sealing member, a through hole with a screw thread can be provided on the pressing plate, and a threaded hole can be provided on the outer periphery of the outer tub, and then a bolt can be sequentially threaded through the pressing plate and the tub sealing part and screwed with the threaded hole on the outer tub, so that the sealing member can be pressed on the outer tub by the pressing plate.

[0083] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 15 The pressing plate 400 extends along the circumference of the opening 10012. In this way, the pressing plate 400 can press the tub sealing part 300b on the outer tub 1001a at any position in the circumferential direction of the opening 10012, thereby enhancing the pressing effect of the pressing plate 400 on the tub sealing part 300b.

[0084] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 16 and Figure 17As shown in FIG. 1, the outer periphery of the open end 10012 of the outer cylinder 1001a is provided with an outer cylinder lug 10014, and the outer periphery of the intermediate piece 600 is provided with an intermediate piece lug 601, and the outer cylinder lug 10014 and the intermediate piece lug 601 are connected.

[0085] That is, the cylinder sealing part is clamped with the end face of the intermediate piece, and the outer cylinder lug and the intermediate piece lug are connected.

[0086] The outer cylinder lug and the intermediate piece lug are connected, which facilitates the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a and the intermediate piece 600 at the outer periphery of the open end 10012, reduces the difficulty of connection, and avoids interference between the connection and fixation and the inner cylinder 1001b, so as to facilitate the connection and fixation of the intermediate piece 600 and the outer cylinder 1001a. The connection mode of the outer cylinder lug 10014 and the intermediate piece lug 601 includes but is not limited to clamping, inserting, welding or bolt connection.

[0087] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the outer periphery of the open end 10012 of the outer cylinder 1001a is provided with an outer cylinder lug 10014, and the outer periphery of the intermediate piece 600 is provided with an intermediate piece lug 601, and the outer cylinder lug 10014 and the intermediate piece lug 601 are connected.

Figure 19 As shown in FIG. 4, the sealing piece 300 further includes a fixing lug 300c arranged on the outer periphery of the annular sheet, and the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate piece lug 601 and the fixing lug 300c are connected.

[0088] That is, the cylinder sealing part is clamped with the end face of the intermediate piece, and the sealing piece is connected with the intermediate piece through the fixing lug, and the outer cylinder lug and the intermediate piece lug are connected. Compared with the scheme that the cylinder sealing part is connected with the intermediate piece only by clamping with the end face of the intermediate piece, the sealing performance can be further improved.

[0089] Therefore, the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate piece 600 and the cylinder sealing part 300b at the outer periphery of the open end 10012 is facilitated, the connection difficulty is reduced, and interference between the connection and fixation and the inner cylinder 1001b is avoided, so as to facilitate the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate piece 600 and the cylinder sealing part 300b. The connection mode of the adjacent two of the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate piece lug 601 and the fixing lug 300c includes but is not limited to clamping, inserting, welding or bolt connection.

[0090] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the outer periphery of the open end 10012 of the outer cylinder 1001a is provided with an outer cylinder lug 10014, and the outer periphery of the intermediate piece 600 is provided with an intermediate piece lug 601, and the clothes treatment apparatus 1000 further includes a pressing plate 400, and the pressing plate 400 further includes a pressing plate lug 402, and the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate piece lug 601 and the pressing plate lug 402 are connected.

[0091] That is, the end surface of the cylinder sealing part and the intermediate part are clamped, the pressing plate is pressed against the sealing part, and the outer cylinder lugs and the intermediate part lugs and the pressing plate lugs are connected. Compared with the scheme without the pressing plate, the sealing performance can be further improved.

[0092] Thus, the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate part 600, and the pressing plate 400 at the outer periphery of the open hole 10012 is facilitated, the connection difficulty is reduced, and the connection and fixation does not interfere with the inner cylinder 1001b, so that the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate part 600, and the pressing plate 400 is facilitated. The connection modes of the adjacent two of the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate part lug 601, and the pressing plate lug 402 include but are not limited to clamping, plugging, welding, or bolt connection.

[0093] Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the outer periphery of the open hole 10012 of the outer cylinder 1001a is provided with the outer cylinder lug 10014, the outer periphery of the intermediate part 600 is provided with the intermediate part lug 601, the sealing part 300 further includes the fixing lug 300c arranged at the outer periphery of the annular sheet, the clothes treatment apparatus 1000 further includes the pressing plate 400, the pressing plate 400 further includes the pressing plate lug 402, and the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate part lug 601, the fixing lug 300c, and the pressing plate lug 402 are connected.

[0094] That is, the end surface of the cylinder sealing part and the intermediate part are clamped, the sealing part is connected to the intermediate part through the fixing lug, the pressing plate is pressed against the sealing part, and the outer cylinder lugs, the intermediate part lugs, the pressing plate lugs, and the sealing part fixing lugs are connected. In this way, the sealing part is connected to the intermediate part in double, and the pressing plate is pressed against the sealing part, so that the sealing performance can be further improved.

[0095] Thus, the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate part 600, and the pressing plate 400 at the outer periphery of the open hole 10012 is facilitated, the connection difficulty is reduced, and the connection and fixation does not interfere with the inner cylinder 1001b, so that the connection and fixation of the outer cylinder 1001a, the intermediate part 600, and the pressing plate 400 is facilitated. The connection modes of the adjacent two of the outer cylinder lug 10014, the intermediate part lug 601, the fixing lug 300c, and the pressing plate lug 402 include but are not limited to clamping, plugging, welding, or bolt connection.

[0096] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, the door sealing part 300a is provided with the reinforcing ribs 303 distributed along the circumference of the central hole on the side facing the opening 10012. Figure 15

[0097] ​Thus, by arranging the reinforcing ribs 303, the structural strength of the door sealing part 300a is enhanced by the reinforcing ribs 303 when the door sealing part 300a abuts against the door bowl 10032, which is conducive to reducing the deformation of the door sealing part 300a, thereby enhancing the sealing performance of the door sealing part 300a. Meanwhile, the reinforcing ribs 303 are distributed circumferentially along the central hole, so as to enhance the structural strength of the door sealing part 300a at different positions in the circumferential direction of the door sealing part 300a, thereby making the stress of the door sealing part 300a at different positions in the circumferential direction more balanced when the door sealing part 300a abuts against the door bowl 10032.

[0098] In some embodiments, the diameter of the inner cylinder is 140mm-200mm. In some embodiments, the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 160mm-180mm.

[0099] For example, the depth of the inner cylinder is 130mm-170mm, such as 150mm.

[0100] For example, the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 165mm, or the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 170mm, or the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 172mm, or the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 175mm, or the diameter of the inner cylinder is 180mm. That is, when the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is within the above range, the size of the inner cylinder 1001b is small, so that the vibration of the inner cylinder 1001b itself is small when the inner cylinder 1001b rotates. Thus, the door sealing part 300a can be arranged as an annular sheet, that is, the axial end surface of the door sealing part 300a is a plane, which has a design of multiple folds relative to the sealing element 300. The sealing element 300 of the present application can seal the gap between the sealing door body 10031 and the edge of the opening 10012 while reducing the hiding of foreign matter, and the structure of the sealing element 300 is relatively simple, thereby reducing the maintenance and cleaning cost of the sealing element 300.

[0101] In some embodiments, the rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b is 600r / min-1000r / min.

[0102] For example, the inner cylinder 1001b has a rotation speed of 600 r / min, or the inner cylinder 1001b has a rotation speed of 700 r / min, or the inner cylinder 1001b has a rotation speed of 750 r / min, or the inner cylinder 1001b has a rotation speed of 800 r / min, or the inner cylinder has a rotation speed of 850 r / min, that is, when the rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b meets the above value range, the rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b is relatively small, so that the vibration of the inner cylinder 1001b itself is relatively small when the inner cylinder 1001b rotates, thereby the door sealing part 300a can be provided as an annular sheet, that is, the axial end surface of the door sealing part 300a is a plane, and the sealing element 300 has a plurality of wrinkle designs, the sealing element 300 of the present application can reduce the hiding of foreign matters in the gap between the sealing door body 10031 and the edge of the opening 10012 at the same time, and the structure of the sealing element 300 is relatively simple, and the maintenance and cleaning cost of the sealing element 300 is reduced.

[0103] In some embodiments, the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 160 mm-180 mm, and the rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b is 600 r / min-1000 r / min. For example, the diameter of the inner cylinder 1001b is 175 mm, and the rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b is 800 r / min, so that the size and rotation speed of the inner cylinder 1001b are relatively small, and the door sealing part 300a can be provided as an annular sheet, that is, the axial end surface of the door sealing part 300a is a plane, and the sealing element 300 has a plurality of wrinkle designs, the sealing element 300 of the present application can reduce the hiding of foreign matters in the gap between the sealing door body 10031 and the edge of the opening 10012 at the same time, and the structure of the sealing element 300 is relatively simple, and the maintenance and cleaning cost of the sealing element 300 is reduced.

[0104] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 16-19 The laundry treating apparatus 1000 further includes a base 500, the outer cylinder 1001a is provided with a connecting leg 10015, the base 500 is provided with a connecting groove 501, the connecting leg 10015 is inserted into the connecting groove 501, and a damping element (not shown in the figure) is clamped between the connecting leg 10015 and the connecting groove 501.

[0105] Thus, by the insertion of the connecting leg 10015 and the connecting groove 501, the outer cylinder 1001a can be fixed on the base 500, so as to facilitate the enhancement of the structural stability of the outer cylinder 1001a, and the damping element is clamped between the connecting leg 10015 and the connecting groove 501, so as to facilitate the absorption of the vibration of the outer cylinder 1001a transmitted to the outer shell 1002 by the damping element.

[0106] In some implementations, the shock-absorbing member can be a sponge, a rubber pad, or other structure capable of shock absorption, which is not limited herein.

[0107] In some implementations, the end surface of the outer shell facing the outer door is in the same plane as the annular flange, and a gap is formed between the end surface of the outer shell facing the outer door and the annular flange. In this way, interference between the seal and the outer shell can be avoided.
