[0048] It should be noted that, Figure 2 As shown, the drum assembly 120 includes the inner drum 122 and the outer drum 121, which is a well-known technical means in the art. The inner drum 122 is rotatably arranged in the outer drum 121. The outer drum 121 is fixed in the cabinet 110. The inner part of the inner drum 122 is the washing cavity S3. The connection structure between the door body, the cabinet 110, the door seal 130 and the drum assembly 120 adopts the conventional structure in the art, which does not belong to the improvement focus of the present application and will not be described in detail. Further, it should be noted that the inner drum 122 is provided with a water permeable hole, and the washing machine cavity is communicated with the radial space between the inner drum 122 and the outer drum 121 through the water permeable hole.

[0049] In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, the negative oxygen ion generating module 150 can be fixed on the cabinet 110 or the outer drum 121 of the drum assembly 120 or the detergent dispenser 160 of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000. For example, the negative oxygen ion generating module 150 can be screwed or clamped or welded on the cabinet 110 or the outer drum 121 of the drum assembly 120 or the detergent dispenser 160 of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000. The detergent dispenser 160 can be a quantitative dispenser, a timing dispenser, or a detergent storage device for temporarily storing a detergent in a quantitative or timing manner. The detergent dispenser 160 is fixed inside the cabinet 110.

[0050] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the negative oxygen ion generating module 150 comprises a negative oxygen ion generator 151, which comprises a jet 1511 for ionizing air. The negative oxygen ion generator 151 is a commercially available product for ionizing air to generate negative oxygen ions; wherein the jet 1511 is an element for ionizing air in the negative oxygen ion generator 151. The detergent dispenser 160 comprises a detergent box 161; the detergent box 161 is connected with the cabinet 110 or the outer drum 121 of the drum assembly 120; the negative oxygen ion generator 151 is arranged on the detergent box 161; a first cavity S1 is formed on the detergent box 161, and the jet 1511 is arranged in the first cavity S1; and the air supply pipe 140 communicates with the first cavity S1. In this embodiment, the negative oxygen ion module is integrated on the detergent box 161, so that the negative oxygen ion air supply and the detergent dispensing of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 are integrated into one module, which can help save the space of the apparatus and reduce the structural modification of the cabinet 110 or the outer drum 121, thereby saving the mold opening cost.

[0051] In embodiments, after the jet 1511 ionizes the air in the first cavity S1 to generate negative oxygen ions, the negative oxygen ions are sent into the washing cavity S3 through the air supply pipe 140.

[0052] In embodiments, the detergent box 161 can be mounted on the cabinet 110 or fixed on the outer drum 121 of the drum assembly 120. For example, the detergent box 161 can be screwed, clamped or welded on the cabinet 110 or the outer drum 121.

[0053] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the negative oxygen ion generating module 150 further comprises a first fan 153 and a first housing 152; the first housing 152 is connected with the detergent box 161 and forms a second cavity S2 which communicates with the first cavity S1; and a fan wheel of the first fan 153 is arranged in the second cavity S2 for driving air to flow through the first cavity S1 to the air supply pipe 140. In embodiments, when the first fan 153 is started, it drives air to flow, so that the ionized air flows to the air supply pipe 140 through the air supply pipe 140, and the air that is not ionized is sent into the first cavity S1 for connection.

[0054] In some embodiments, the second cavity S2 can be located upstream of the first cavity S1 in the flow direction, i.e. the air is first driven into the second cavity S2 by the impeller of the first air blower 153 and then flows into the first cavity S1 for ionization. In other embodiments, the second cavity S2 can be located downstream of the first cavity S1, i.e. the air is first ionized in the first cavity S1 and then flows into the second cavity S2 and then flows into the air supply pipe 140.

[0055] In embodiments, the first shell 152 and the detergent box 161 can be connected by a threaded member. In order to avoid air leakage, a sealing structure is provided at the interface position of the first shell 152 and the detergent box 161.

[0056] As an alternative embodiment of the above embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 7 , the first shell 152 is formed with an air suction port S22 and an air outlet S21, and the air suction port S22 and the air outlet S21 are in communication through the second cavity S2; the air outlet S21 communicates with the first cavity S1, and the air suction port S22 communicates with the outside. In this embodiment, when the impeller rotates, the external air is sucked into the second cavity S2 through the air suction port S22, the impeller works on the sucked air, and the air is discharged into the first cavity S1 through the air outlet S21, so that the air flows.

[0057] In embodiments, the first shell 152 can be a volute, which is provided with an air suction port S22 in the axial direction of the impeller and an air outlet S21 in the radial direction of the impeller, i.e. end face air inlet and radial side air outlet. The radial side of the first shell 152 is connected with the detergent box 161.

[0058] As an alternative embodiment of the above embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 , the detergent box 161 is formed with an air inlet port S11 and an air outlet port S12; the air inlet port S11 communicates with the air outlet port S12 through the first cavity S1, the air outlet port S12 is connected with the air supply pipe 140, and the air inlet port S11 is connected with the first shell 152. In embodiments, the air flows out of the second cavity S2 after being worked by the impeller, flows into the first cavity S1 through the air inlet port S11, so that the negative oxygen ion generator 151 ionizes the air, and then the air is sent into the air supply pipe 140 through the air outlet port S12 and then delivered into the washing cavity S3.

[0059] As an alternative embodiment of the above embodiments, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the detergent box 161 is provided with a detergent dispensing structure 162, which is arranged on the front side plate 111 of the cabinet 110; the negative oxygen ion generator 151 and the detergent dispensing structure 162 are arranged opposite to each other in the front-rear direction of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000. The space at the rear of the detergent box 161 is relatively larger, and thus, in the embodiment, the negative oxygen ion generator 151 is mounted at the rear of the detergent box 161 and arranged opposite to the detergent dispensing structure 162 in the front-rear direction.

[0060] It should be noted that the detergent dispensing structure 162 is a dispensing window of the detergent of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000. In some embodiments, the detergent dispensing structure 162 is arranged in a drawer structure, which is slidingly connected to the front side plate 111 and communicates with the detergent containing cavity in the detergent box 161. In some embodiments, the detergent dispensing structure 162 includes a flip cover structure and a detergent dispensing opening covered by the flip cover structure, the flip cover structure is rotatably connected to the front side plate 111, and the detergent dispensing opening can be configured on the detergent box 161 and communicate with the detergent containing cavity in the detergent box 161.

[0061] In some other embodiments, the negative oxygen ion generator 151 can be arranged on the left side, the right side, the upper side or the lower side of the detergent box 161 in combination with the space inside the laundry treatment apparatus 1000.

[0062] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the laundry treatment apparatus 1000 further includes an exhaust pipe 170, which communicates with the outside and is arranged on the outer drum 121 of the drum assembly 120 and communicates with the washing cavity S3; wherein the exhaust pipe 170 is arranged away from the drum opening S31. In the embodiment, in order to balance the internal pressure of the washing cavity S3, the exhaust pipe 170 is arranged on the outer drum 121. When the negative oxygen ion air is delivered into the washing cavity S3, the exhaust pipe 170 exhausts the air in the washing cavity S3. At the same time, the exhaust pipe 170 is arranged away from the drum opening S31, so that the negative oxygen ion air flows from front to back in the washing cavity S3, and can flow in the axial direction of the washing cavity S3 for a sufficient time before being exhausted, so that the washing cavity S3 is completely cleaned.

[0063] In the embodiment, the outer drum 121 is provided with an exhaust structure configured to be connected with the exhaust pipe 170. For example, the exhaust structure can be a threaded interface, a flange interface, etc. Alternatively, the exhaust structure is welded with the exhaust pipe.

[0064] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, in combination with Figure 7As shown, the housing 110 has an exhaust hole connecting the outside of the housing 110 to the inside of the housing 110. The exhaust pipe 170 is located inside the exhaust hole or extends through the exhaust hole to the outside of the housing 110. In this embodiment, the housing 110 has an exhaust hole that connects the inside and outside of the housing 110, and the exhaust pipe 170 is located inside the exhaust hole or extends through the exhaust hole to the outside of the housing 110, so that the air after washing is discharged outside the clothing processing equipment 1000.

[0065] In one embodiment, the exhaust pipe 170 has an exhaust port 171, which can be located inside the exhaust vent or extend outside the exhaust vent. The exhaust port 171 discharges the cleaned air.

[0066] As an optional implementation of the above embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the clothing processing device 1000 also includes a fresh air module 180; the fresh air module 180 is connected to the negative ion generating module 150. That is, the clothing processing device 1000 ionizes the fresh air before introducing it into the washing chamber S3. Specifically, the fresh air module 180 includes a second housing 182, a fresh air duct 181, and a second fan. The second housing 182 forms a third cavity, and the impeller of the second fan is located within the third cavity; the fresh air duct 181 connects to the outside of the clothing processing device 1000; the fresh air duct 181 is connected to the second housing 182 and communicates with the third cavity; the negative ion generating module 150 communicates with the third cavity. When the impeller of the second fan rotates, it draws in air from outside the clothing processing device 1000 into the fresh air duct 181, flows into the third cavity, and then into the negative ion generating module 150 to ionize the fresh air. The ionized fresh air then enters the washing chamber S3. In this embodiment, the air inside the garment processing device 1000 can be ionized during the renewal process, further reducing bacterial growth and odor generation.

[0067] It should be noted that the connection structure between the second housing 182 and the negative ion generating module 150 can be referred to the connection structure between the first housing 152 and the negative ion generating module 150, and will not be discussed further here. In both structures, the air intake S22 of the first housing 152 draws in air from inside the housing 110 of the clothing processing device 1000; while the air intake S22 of the second housing 182 draws in air from outside the housing 110 of the clothing processing device 1000.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first housing 152 and the second housing 182 may be configured as the same housing, and a valve is provided on the fresh air duct 181 to control the valve to open when it is necessary to ionize the fresh air, so that the inside of the housing is connected to the outside.

[0069] In some embodiments, a shielding member may be provided at the air intake S22. The shielding member is connected to the transmission member and has an open position (open air intake S22) and a closed position (closed air intake S22). The transmission member is used to drive the shielding member to move between the open and closed positions; for example, the transmission member is a gear, and the shielding member has a matching rack. For example, the shielding member is a damper, which is rotatably connected to the housing and moves between the open and closed positions by a motor.

[0070] In this embodiment, when the garment processing device 1000 does not require fresh air, the obstruction can be opened to introduce air from inside the garment processing device 1000 for ionization; when the garment processing device 1000 requires fresh air, the valve can be opened and the obstruction closed to introduce air from outside the garment processing device 1000 for ionization. In this embodiment, when the garment processing device 1000 has no specific requirement for the air source, the valve and the obstruction can be opened to allow air to come from both inside and outside.

[0071] Of course, in some other embodiments, the fresh air module 180 may be set up independently from the negative oxygen ion generating module 150.

[0072] As an optional implementation of the above embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, an interface portion 132 is formed on the door seal 130, and the air supply duct 140 is sealed to the interface portion 132. In an embodiment, the interface portion 132 can be a threaded interface portion 132, a flange interface portion 132, or a duct column. The air supply duct 140 is threaded to the threaded interface portion 132, or connected to the flange interface portion 132, or it can be heat-welded or expanded to the duct column.

[0073] As in a part of the aforementioned embodiment, the negative ion generator 151 on the detergent box 161 can generate negative ions and deliver them to the door seal 130 through a fan (first fan 153 or second fan). The channel 131 of the door seal 130 is connected to the washing chamber S3. The negative ion air enters the washing chamber S3 through the door seal 130 and is finally discharged through the exhaust pipe 170 installed on the outer cylinder 121.

[0074] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the content of the specification and drawings of this application under the concept of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
