[0082] Please refer to Figure 9 , in some embodiments, the control module 4 can have a first state. When the control module 4 is in the first state, the control module 4 can disconnect between the first connecting end 311 and the third connecting end 321, so that the live wire L, the third connecting end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the heating element 31 can be connected in series. In this way, when the clothes treatment apparatus heats water, the control module 4 can be in the first state, so that the heating element 31 and the first temperature controller 32 are connected in series, and the heating element 31 and the first temperature controller 32 can work at the same time, so that the first temperature controller 32 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time. When it is detected that the heating element 31 reaches above the preset temperature, the first temperature controller 32 can cut off the circuit, so as to avoid dry burning of the heating element 31, so as to ensure that the heating element 31 can avoid dry burning when heating water, thereby preventing the heating element 31 from being damaged.
[0083] Please refer to Figure 10As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can have a second state. When the control module 4 is in the second state, the control module 4 can short-circuit the connection between the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321, so that the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited, and then the live wire L, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, and the heating element 31 can work alone. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus performs drying heating, the control module 4 can be in the second state, and the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited by short-circuiting the connection between the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321, and the heating element 31 is heated alone. At this time, the first temperature controller 32 does not work, and the first temperature controller 32 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, so that the heating element 31 can be heated to above the preset temperature, and then the heating element 31 can heat the air inside the outer tub 21.
[0084] By providing the control module 4 with the first state and the second state, the heating assembly 3 can realize water heating of the clothes treatment apparatus and drying heating of the clothes treatment apparatus by cooperation of the control module 4 and the heating assembly 3, so that the washing demand of the user can be met, and the drying function of the clothes treatment apparatus can be realized, and then the production cost of the clothes treatment apparatus can be effectively reduced.
[0085] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can include a first switch K1. One end of the first switch K1 can be connected to the first connection end 311 through a wire. The other end of the first switch K1 can be connected to the third connection end 321 through a wire. The first switch K1 can have a closed and open state, and by closing or opening the first switch K1, the short-circuit connection or disconnection between the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321 can be controlled.
[0086] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the first switch K1 is open, so that the wires on both sides of the first switch K1 are disconnected, thereby disconnecting the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321, so that the live wire L, the third connection end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, thereby connecting the first temperature controller 32 and the heating element 31 in series. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus is performing water heating, the control module 4 can be in the first state, the first switch K1 is open, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the heating element 31 are connected in series, and the heating element 31 and the first temperature controller 32 can work at the same time, so that the first temperature controller 32 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time.
[0087] Referring to Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the first switch K1 is closed, so that the wires on both sides of the first switch K1 are conductive, thereby connecting the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321 through the first switch K1, so that the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited, and thereby the live wire L, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus is performing drying heating, the control module 4 can be in the second state, so that the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited and the heating element 31 is heated alone. At this time, the first temperature controller 32 does not work, and the first temperature controller 32 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, thereby enabling the heating element 31 to heat to above the preset temperature, and thereby enabling the heating element 31 to heat the air inside the outer tub 21.
[0088] By the first switch K1, the open or closed state of the control module 4 can be switched in different states, thereby enabling the first switch K1 to quickly switch the different states of the control module 4, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the heating element 31 work at the same time or the first temperature controller 32 works alone, thereby enabling the switching between water heating and drying heating, thereby enabling the first switch K1 to improve the efficiency of the clothes treatment apparatus in switching between water heating and drying heating, and making the switching operation very convenient.
[0089] Referring to Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can comprise a third switch K3. The third switch K3 can be disposed between the live wire L and the third connecting terminal 321. One end of the third switch K3 can be connected with the live wire L through a wire. The other end of the third switch K3 can be connected with the third connecting terminal 321 through a wire. When the third switch K3 is closed, the live wire L, the third connecting terminal 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting terminal 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting terminal 312 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the power supply to the heating element 31.
[0090] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the third switch K3 is closed, the first switch K1 is opened, the live wire L, the third connecting terminal 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting terminal 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting terminal 312 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the water heating function of the clothes processing device. When the control module 4 is in the second state, the first switch K1 is closed, the third switch K3 is closed, so that the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited, and the live wire L, the first connecting terminal 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting terminal 312 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the power supply to the heating element 31, thereby realizing the drying heating function of the clothes processing device.
[0091] In some embodiments, when the clothes processing device does not need to be heated, the third switch K3 can be opened, so that the heating element 31 is disconnected with the live wire L, and the heating element 31 can stop working.
[0092] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the third switch K3 can also be disposed between the zero wire N and the second connecting terminal 312. At this time, one end of the third switch K3 can be connected with the zero wire N through a wire. The other end of the third switch K3 can be connected with the second connecting terminal 312 through a wire.
[0093] Figure 11 is a circuit schematic diagram of a clothes processing device provided by the utility model in another embodiment. Figure 12 is Figure 11 a schematic diagram in a state. Figure 13 is Figure 11 a schematic diagram in another state.
[0094] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, in some embodiments, the heating assembly 3 may further include a second thermostat 33. One end of the second thermostat 33 may be connected to the second connection terminal 312. The other end of the second thermostat 33 may be located outside the outer cylinder 21 to form a fourth connection terminal 331. The fourth connection terminal 331 may be connected to the neutral wire N. Thus, the live wire L, the first connection terminal 321, the heating element 31, the second connection terminal 312, the second thermostat 33, the fourth connection terminal 331, and the neutral wire N are connected in series to form a circuit. The second thermostat 33 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time. When it detects that the heating element 31 has reached a preset temperature or higher, it can cut off the circuit, thereby preventing safety accidents.
[0095] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the fourth connection terminal 331 can be connected to the live wire L, and the first connection terminal 321 can be connected to the neutral wire N. In this case, the neutral wire N, the first connection terminal 321, the heating element 31, the second connection terminal 312, the second thermostat 33, the fourth connection terminal 331, and the live wire L are connected in series to form a circuit.
[0096] In some embodiments, the second thermostat 33 may be located outside the outer cylinder 21. One end of the second thermostat 33 may be connected to the second connection terminal 312 via a second connecting wire. Thus, the second thermostat 33 can be separated from the water phase inside the outer cylinder 21, thereby preventing water from entering the second thermostat 33. It should be noted that the second connecting wire may be a conductor.
[0097] Please see Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can be connected to the second connection terminal 312 and the fourth connection terminal 331 respectively. The control module 4 can be used to control the short-circuit connection or disconnection between the second connection terminal 312 and the fourth connection terminal 331.
[0098] Please see Figure 12As shown, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the control module 4 is disconnected between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331, and then the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the zero line N can be connected in series to form a loop, so that the second temperature controller 33 and the heating element 31 can be connected in series. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus performs water heating, the control module 4 can be in the first state, so that the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 are connected in series, and the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 can work at the same time, so that the second temperature controller 33 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time. When it is detected that the heating element 31 reaches a preset temperature or above, the second temperature controller 33 can cut off the circuit, thereby avoiding dry burning of the heating element 31, so as to ensure that the heating element 31 can avoid dry burning when heating water, thereby preventing damage to the heating element 31.
[0099] Please refer to Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the control module 4 is short-circuited between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end, so that the second temperature controller 33 is short-circuited, and then the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312 and the zero line N can be connected in series to form a loop, and the heating element 31 can work alone. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus performs drying heating, the control module 4 can be in the second state, and the second temperature controller 33 is short-circuited by short-circuiting between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331, so that the heating element 31 heats alone. At this time, the second temperature controller 33 does not work, and the second temperature controller 33 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, so that the heating element 31 can heat to a preset temperature or above, and then the heating element 31 can heat the air inside the outer tub 21.
[0100] By providing the control module 4 with the first state and the second state, the heating assembly 3 can realize water heating of the clothes treatment apparatus and drying heating of the clothes treatment apparatus through cooperation of the control module 4 and the heating assembly 3, so as to meet the washing needs of users and realize the drying function of the clothes treatment apparatus, thereby effectively reducing the production cost of the clothes treatment apparatus.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 may include a second switch K2. One end of the second switch K2 can be connected to the second connection terminal 312 via a wire. The other end of the second switch K2 can be connected to the fourth connection terminal 331 via a wire. The second switch K2 can have closed and open states. By closing or opening the second switch K2, the short-circuit connection or disconnection between the second connection terminal 312 and the fourth connection terminal 331 can be controlled.
[0102] Please see Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the second switch K2 is open, causing the wires at both ends of the second switch K2 to disconnect, thereby disconnecting the second connection terminal 312 and the fourth connection terminal 331. This allows the live wire L, the first connection terminal 311, the heating element 31, the second connection terminal 312, the second thermostat 33, the fourth connection terminal 331, and the neutral wire N to be connected in series to form a circuit, thereby allowing the second thermostat 33 and the heating element 31 to be connected in series. Therefore, when the clothing processing equipment heats water, the control module 4 can be in the first state, the second switch K2 is open, and the second thermostat 33 and the heating element 31 are connected in series. The heating element 31 and the second thermostat 33 can work simultaneously, allowing the second thermostat 33 to monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time.
[0103] Please see Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the second switch K2 is closed, making the wires at both ends of the second switch K2 conductive. This causes the second connection terminal 312 and the fourth connection terminal 331 to be short-circuited through the second switch K2, thereby short-circuiting the second thermostat 33. This allows the live wire L, the first connection terminal 311, the heating element 31, the second connection terminal 312, and the neutral wire N to be connected in series to form a circuit. Therefore, when the clothing processing equipment is drying and heating, the control module 4 can be in the second state, causing the second thermostat 33 to be short-circuited, and the heating element 31 to heat independently. At this time, the second thermostat 33 is not working and cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, thus allowing the heating element 31 to heat to a temperature above the preset temperature, thereby enabling the heating element 31 to heat the air inside the outer drum 21.
[0104] The second switch K2 can switch the control module 4 to open or closed states under different conditions, thereby enabling the control module 4 to switch between different states quickly. This allows the second thermostat 33 and the heating element 31 to work simultaneously or the second thermostat 33 to work alone, thus enabling the switching between water heating and drying heating. The second switch K2 can improve the efficiency of the clothing processing equipment in switching between water heating and drying heating, and makes the switching operation very convenient.
[0105] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 , in some embodiments, when the third switch K3 is closed, the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the power supply to the heating element 31.
[0106] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the third switch K3 is closed, the second switch K2 is opened, and the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the water heating function of the clothes processing device.
[0107] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the second switch K2 is closed, the third switch K3 is closed, so that the second temperature controller 33 is short-circuited, and the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, so as to realize the power supply to the heating element 31, and realize the drying heating function of the clothes processing device.
[0108] In some embodiments, when the clothes processing device does not need to be heated, the third switch K3 can be opened to disconnect the heating element 31 from the live wire L, so that the heating element 31 can stop working.
[0109] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the third switch K3 can also be arranged between the zero wire N and the fourth connecting end 331. At this time, one end of the third switch K3 can be connected to the zero wire N through a wire. The other end of the third switch K3 can be connected to the fourth connecting end 331 through a wire.
[0110] Figure 14 is a circuit schematic diagram of part of Figure 7 . Figure 15 is a schematic diagram in a state. Figure 14 is a schematic diagram in another state. Figure 16 is a schematic diagram in another state. Figure 14 is a schematic diagram in another state.
[0111] Please refer to Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 16As shown, in some embodiments, the heating assembly 3 can simultaneously include the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33. One end of the first temperature controller 32 can be connected with the first connecting end 311 of the heating element 31. The other end of the first temperature controller 32 can be arranged outside the outer cylinder 21 to form a third connecting end 321. The third connecting end 321 can be connected with the live wire L. One end of the second temperature controller 33 can be connected with the second connecting end 312. The other end of the second temperature controller 33 can be arranged outside the outer cylinder 21 to form a fourth connecting end 331. The fourth connecting end 331 can be connected with the neutral wire N. Thus, the live wire L, the third connecting end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting end 321, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the neutral wire N are sequentially connected in series to form a loop. The first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, and when it is detected that the heating element 31 reaches above the preset temperature, the circuit can be cut off, thereby avoiding safety accidents.
[0112] As shown, when the control module 4 is in the first state, Figure 15 the control module 4 is disconnected between the first connecting end 311 and the third connecting end 321, and the control module 4 is disconnected between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331, and thus the live wire L, the third connecting end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the neutral wire N can be sequentially connected in series to form a loop, so that the first temperature controller 32, the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 can be connected in series. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus performs water heating, the control module 4 can be in the first state, so that the first temperature controller 32, the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 are connected in series, and the first temperature controller 31, the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 can work simultaneously, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 can detect the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time. When it is detected that the heating element 31 reaches above the preset temperature, the first temperature controller 32 or the second temperature controller 33 can cut off the circuit, thereby avoiding dry burning of the heating element 31, so as to ensure that the heating element 31 can avoid dry burning when heating water, thereby preventing damage to the heating element 31.
[0113] As shown, when the control module 4 is in the second state, Figure 16As shown, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the control module 4 can be short-circuited between the first connecting end 311 and the third connecting end 321, so that the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited. The control module 4 can be short-circuited between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331, so that the second temperature controller 33 is short-circuited. At this time, the live wire L, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, and the heating element 31 can be heated alone. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus is in the drying heating mode, the control module 4 can be in the second state, the first temperature controller 32 is short-circuited by short-circuiting between the first connecting end 311 and the third connecting end 321, and the second temperature controller 33 is short-circuited by short-circuiting between the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331, and the heating element 31 is heated alone. At this time, the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 do not work, and the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, so that the heating element 31 can be heated to above the preset temperature, and the heating element 31 can heat the air in the outer tub 21.
[0114] The first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 can simultaneously detect the temperature of the heating element 31 at different positions in real time, so that the heating element 31 can realize water heating while avoiding dry burning of the heating element 31, thereby preventing damage to the heating element 31.
[0115] Please refer to Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can simultaneously include the first switch K1 and the second switch K2. When the control module 4 is in the first state, the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are open, so that the wires between the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are disconnected, the first connecting end 311 and the third connecting end 321 are disconnected, and the second connecting end 312 and the fourth connecting end 331 are disconnected. The live wire L, the third connecting end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the neutral wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, and the first temperature controller 32, the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 can be connected in series.
[0116] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are closed, so that the wires between the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are conducted, thereby causing the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321 to be short-circuited, the second connection end 312 and the fourth connection end 331 to be short-circuited, thereby causing the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 to be short-circuited, and further causing the live wire L, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312, and the zero wire N to be connected in series to form a loop. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus is performing drying heating, the control module 4 can be in the second state, causing the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 to be short-circuited, and the heating element 31 to be heated alone. At this time, the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 do not work, and the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, thereby causing the heating element 31 to be able to heat to above the preset temperature, and further causing the heating element 31 to be able to heat the air inside the outer tub 21.
[0117] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, and 4, Figure 14 、 Figure 15 and Figure 16 In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the third switch K3 is closed, the first switch K1 is open, and the second switch K2 is open, and the live wire L, the third connection end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connection end 331, and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, thereby realizing the water heating function of the clothes treatment apparatus. When the control module 4 is in the second state, the first switch K1 is closed, the second switch K2 is closed, and the third switch K3 is closed, thereby causing the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 to be short-circuited, and further causing the live wire L, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312, and the zero wire N to be connected in series to form a loop, thereby realizing the power supply to the heating element 31, and further realizing the drying heating function of the clothes treatment apparatus.
[0118] In some embodiments, when the clothes treatment apparatus does not need to be heated, the third switch K3 can be open, thereby causing the heating element 31 to be disconnected from the live wire L, and further causing the heating element 31 to stop working.
[0119] As shown in FIG. 4, Figure 7 In some embodiments, the control module 4 can further include a first relay 41. The first relay 41 can be used to control the closing or opening of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2. The first relay 41 can be a double-pole double-throw relay, to control the closing or opening of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2.
[0120] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the first relay 41 can also be a single-pole single-throw relay. At this time, the first relay 41 can be provided with two, and the two first relays 41 can control the closing or opening of the first switch K1 and the second switch K2, respectively.
[0121] Referring to FIG. 1, Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the first relay 41 is not working, so that the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are in the open state, so that the wires between the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are disconnected, so that the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321 are disconnected, and the second connection end 312 and the fourth connection end 331 are disconnected. The live wire L, the third connection end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connection end 331 and the zero line N can be connected in series to form a loop, and then the first temperature controller 32, the heating element 31 and the second temperature controller 33 can be connected in series.
[0122] Referring to FIG. 1, Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the first relay 41 is working, so that the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are closed, so that the wires between the first switch K1 and the second switch K2 are connected, so that the first connection end 311 and the third connection end 321 are short-circuit connected, and the second connection end 312 and the fourth connection end 331 are short-circuit connected, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 are short-circuit connected, and then the live wire L, the first connection end 311, the heating element 31, the second connection end 312 and the zero line N can be connected in series to form a loop. Thus, when the clothes treatment apparatus is in the drying heating state, the control module 4 can be in the second state, so that the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 are short-circuit connected, and the heating element 31 is heated alone. At this time, the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 are not working, and the first temperature controller 32 and the second temperature controller 33 cannot monitor the temperature of the heating element 31 in real time, so that the heating element 31 can be heated to above the preset temperature, and then the heating element 31 can heat the air inside the outer tub 21.
[0123] Referring to FIG. 1, Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the control module 4 can further include a second relay 42. The second relay 42 can be used to control the closing or opening of the third switch K3.
[0124] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the first state, the second relay 42 is operated so that the third switch K3 is closed. The first relay 41 is not operated, the first switch K1 is open, the second switch K2 is open, the live wire L, the third connecting end 321, the first temperature controller 32, the first connecting end 311, the heating element 31, the second connecting end 312, the second temperature controller 33, the fourth connecting end 331 and the zero wire N can be connected in series to form a loop, thereby realizing the water heating function of the clothes treatment device.
[0125] In some embodiments, when the control module 4 is in the second state, the first relay 41 is operated so that the first switch K1 is closed and the second switch K2 is closed. The second relay 42 is operated, and the third switch K3 is closed.
