[0065] BACKGROUND
[0066] Detergent foam can play a good cleaning and softening role in the laundry process. At present, the existing washing machines usually do not have a active foam generating device, and foam can be generated only after a period of washing, the effect of the detergent is slow, and part of the detergent cannot be completely dissolved in water, affecting the cleaning effect.
[0067] Based on this, as Figures 1-7 shown, the first aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides a fabric treatment device, comprising:
[0068] a fabric treatment drum 100;
[0069] a detergent feeding device, the detergent feeding device comprising a detergent dissolving cavity 200 for mixing detergent and washing water; preferably, the detergent dissolving cavity 200 has a flow disturbance or water jet structure inside, so that the detergent and the washing water are more fully mixed and dissolved;
[0070] The detergent water conveying pipeline 300 is connected between the detergent dissolving cavity 200 and the foam generator 400, and is used to convey the mixed detergent water in the detergent dissolving cavity 200 to the foam generator 400 for foaming;
[0071] The water inlet pipeline 500 includes a first water inlet pipeline 501 that communicates with the fabric treatment drum 100;
[0072] The first water inlet pipeline 501 is provided with a mixing device that communicates with the foam generator 400, and the foam generated by the foam generator 400 can be mixed with the water in the first water inlet pipeline 501 through the mixing device and discharged into the fabric treatment drum 100 through the first water inlet pipeline 501.
[0073] In the embodiment, the detergent and the washing water are mixed in the detergent dissolving cavity 200, and then conveyed to the foam generator 400 for foaming, so that the detergent can be fully dissolved and dispersed in the water, thereby improving the washing efficiency and the cleaning effect. The foam generated by the foam generating device is mixed with another water through the mixing device, the foam is diluted, and the pressure and the flowability of the foam are increased, so that the foam entering the fabric treatment drum can be sprayed into the drum, thereby enabling the foam to cover the surface of the clothes in the drum more quickly and more completely, and improving the washing effect of the clothes.
[0074] Further, in some possible implementation manners, the fabric treatment apparatus further includes:
[0075] The ozone generating device 700 is connected with the foam generator 400, so that the ozone gas generated by the ozone generating device 700 is attached to the foam generated by the foam generator 400.
[0076] It should be noted that ozone is a strong oxidant and has high sterilization and disinfection capacity. By introducing ozone gas into the foam at the same time of foaming, the ozone gas is attached to the surface of the foam film and wrapped in the foam, to form high-concentration ozone foam, which has good sterilization, enhanced cleaning, soft protection, and anti-color bleeding effects, and can improve the sterilization effect of the fabric treatment apparatus. In this way, the detergent can more effectively remove stains, especially organic stains that are difficult to clean, and the addition of ozone can improve the cleaning effect.
[0077] Further, in some possible implementation manners, the ozone generating device 700 includes an ozone generator 701, an air pump 702, an air pipe 703, and an air inlet one-way valve 704, and the ozone generator 701 is connected with the foam generator 400 through the air pipe 703;
[0078] The air inlet one-way valve 704 is designed to allow fluid to flow out of the ozone generator 701 and restrict fluid from flowing into the ozone generator 701.
[0079] In the embodiments of the present application, the cooperation of the air pump 702 and the air pipe 703 can accurately control the generation and supply amount of ozone gas, ensuring that the ozone concentration of the foam in the foam generator 400 is appropriate, meeting the need for sterilization and avoiding potential harm to the human body and the environment caused by excessive ozone. The design of the air inlet one-way valve 704 allows ozone gas to flow from the ozone generator 701 to the foam generator 400, while preventing reverse flow. This one-way flow control can prevent foam or water from flowing back to the ozone generator, protecting the ozone generator from damage, prolonging its service life, and improving the safety of the entire system.
[0080] Further, in some possible embodiments, the foam generator 400 includes a foam generation chamber 401 and a foaming device 402, the foaming device 402 is arranged in the foam generation chamber 401, and the mixing device includes a jet device 600, the jet device 600 has a suction cavity 601.
[0081] The jet device 600 sucks the foam generated by the foaming device 402 in the foam generation chamber 401 into the first water inlet pipeline 501 through the suction cavity 601 to mix with water.
[0082] In the embodiments of the present application, the design of the suction cavity 601 of the jet device 600 allows the foam to be sucked in and mixed with water in the first water inlet pipeline 501, which can dilute the foam, increase its flowability, and maintain a certain degree of fineness, which is beneficial to the spraying and distribution of the foam. The mixed foam can more evenly cover the clothes, improving the washing and sterilization effect. Especially when combined with the ozone generation device, the sterilization effect of the ozone foam is enhanced.
[0083] Further, in some possible embodiments, the foam generator 400 and the jet device 600 are integrated together, and the foam outlet of the foam generator 400 is in communication with the inlet of the suction cavity 601 of the jet device 600.
[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, by integrating the foam generator 400 and the jet device 600 together, the number of additional pipelines and connecting components can be reduced, thereby simplifying the overall structure, reducing the space occupation, and making the device more compact. The integrated design reduces the number of separate components, simplifies the manufacturing and assembly process, helps to reduce production costs and improve production efficiency, and at the same time, since the number of connection points is reduced, the integrated design reduces the risk of leakage caused by improper connection or poor sealing, improving the reliability and safety of the device.
[0085] Further, in some possible embodiments, the foam generating cavity 401 and the foamer 402 are both configured as a cylindrical structure extending vertically, and the shaft centers of the cylindrical foam generating cavity 401 and the foamer 402 coincide with each other;
[0086] The jetting device 600 is arranged below the foam generator 400, and the bottom of the foam generating cavity 401 is provided with a foam outlet communicating with the suction cavity 601 of the jetting device. Preferably, the foamer 402 is a porous aeration head with fine and dense pores, which can foam the liquid when gas is introduced.
[0087] That is, in the embodiment, the foam generating cavity 401 and the foamer 402 with the porous aeration head are both cylindrical, and the shaft centers coincide or completely coincide with each other, so as to form an annular aeration space in the foam generating cavity 401, and the generated foam can be uniformly dispersed, then gathered below the foam generating cavity 401, and then enter the suction cavity 601 of the jetting device through the connecting part or connecting pipeline at the bottom.
[0088] It should be noted that, since the shaft centers of the foam generating cavity 401 and the foamer 402 coincide with each other, the generated foam can be directly gathered downward and enter the suction cavity 601 of the jetting device through the foam outlet, and this direct connection mode helps the foam and water to be mixed more quickly and uniformly.
[0089] Preferably, the foam outflow side of the foam generating cavity 401 is provided with a foaming net (not shown in the figure), so that the bubbles generated in the foaming cavity can flow out in the form of fine and dense bubbles.
[0090] Further, in some possible embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The jetting device 600 includes a transversely extending water inlet part 600a and a water outlet part 600b, one end of the water inlet part 600a in the transverse extension direction is formed with a jetting device water inlet, and the other end is arranged inside the transversely extending water outlet part 600b and is formed with a jetting device water outlet.
[0091] The water inlet part 600a arranged inside the water outlet part 600b and the inner cavity of the water outlet part 600b define a suction cavity 601 communicating the foam generator 400 and the first water inlet pipeline 501.
[0092] The transverse extension design of the fluidic device 600 in the embodiments of the present application helps to optimize the water flow dynamics, so that the water can generate negative pressure more effectively when flowing between the water inlet portion 600a and the water outlet portion 600b, thereby sucking in the foam. Further, the air suction chamber 601 is formed between the inner cavities of the water inlet portion 600a and the water outlet portion 600b, which helps to improve the efficiency of the foam being sucked from the foam generator 400 into the first water inlet pipeline 501. Due to the presence of the air suction chamber 601, the foam and water are mixed more fully inside the fluidic device, which helps to form a uniform foam water solution and enhances the washing effect.
[0093] Further, in some possible embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 the water outlet portion 600b is formed with an outlet communicating with the first water inlet pipeline 501 at one end in the transverse extension direction and an inlet communicating with the foam generator 400 at the top of the other end;
[0094] The water outlet portion 600b is formed with a tapered cavity 602 tapering along the water flow direction at the end provided with the inlet, and the water inlet portion 600a is formed with a tapered nozzle 603 tapering along the water flow direction at the end provided with the fluidic device water outlet, and the tapered cavity 602 and the tapered nozzle 603 define a ring-tapered channel 604 extending along the water flow direction and being part of the air suction chamber 601;
[0095] Wherein, when the fluidic device water outlet discharges water, the ring-tapered channel 604 can generate negative pressure, so as to suck the foam in the foam generator 400 into the ring-tapered channel 604 under the action of the negative pressure, so that the foam can be discharged into the fabric treatment drum 100 together with the water flow.
[0096] In the embodiments of the present application, the tapered cavity 602 of the water outlet portion 600b and the tapered nozzle 603 of the water inlet portion 600a are designed so that the water flow is accelerated at the ring-tapered channel 604, generating negative pressure, thereby more effectively sucking the foam in the foam generator 400 into the channel. The design of the ring-tapered channel 604 enables the foam to be fully mixed with the water flow during the suction process, forming a uniform foam water solution and improving the washing effect. The design of the tapered cavity 602 and the tapered nozzle 603 optimizes the water flow dynamics, making the water flow smoother inside the fluidic device and reducing energy loss. The setting of the negative pressure area enables the foam to be strongly sucked in and mixed with the water, enhancing the penetration of the detergent and improving the washing effect. Due to the negative pressure effect, the loss of foam during the suction process is reduced, improving the utilization rate of the foam. Specifically, when the water flow is sprayed through the tapered nozzle 603 into the circular tube-shaped inner cavity of the water outlet portion 600b, a lower pressure or even negative pressure can be formed at the ring-tapered channel 604, so as to suck the foam generated in the foam generator 400 into the air suction chamber 601 of the fluidic device 600.

[0107] At least two of the first water inlet pipeline 501, the second water inlet pipeline 502, the third water inlet pipeline 503 and the fourth water inlet pipeline 504 share one water inlet valve.
[0108] In the embodiment of the present application, each water inlet pipeline is independently provided with a water inlet valve, so that the water flow of each pipeline can be accurately controlled, and the water flow requirements of each part in the washing process can be ensured to be met, for example, Figure 1 as shown.
[0109] It should be noted that, when considering the arrangement of the water inlet pipeline from the perspective of saving cost and installation space, at least two water inlet pipelines can share one water inlet valve.

[0116] The application embodiments can control the operation of the dispensing pump 1000 to accurately control the amount of detergent and / or softener pumped from the storage cavity 900 into the detergent dissolving cavity 200, thereby improving the washing effect and the quality of clothes care. Meanwhile, since the detergent and / or softener is pumped into the detergent dissolving cavity 200 by the dispensing pump 1000, the pressure of the detergent and / or softener when entering the detergent dissolving cavity 200 can be improved, so that the detergent and / or softener can be fully mixed with the washing water entering the detergent dissolving cavity 200 through the water inlet pipeline to form detergent water, thereby improving the foaming effect of the subsequent foam generating device 400 on the detergent water.
