[0044] In existing multi-drum washing machines, an air intake device is needed to provide airflow for drying the clothes. However, the existing technology has shortcomings in air intake design. The air intake duct is too long, resulting in significant air loss during transmission. Ultimately, this leads to insufficient air intake, resulting in low drying efficiency and failing to fully meet consumers' expectations for efficient drying.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model creatively provides a clothing processing device with a drying function. The clothing processing device is a heat pump type clothing processing device. The clothing processing device includes an upper clothing processing drum 11, a lower clothing processing drum 12, and an air inlet device. The upper clothing processing drum 11 and the lower clothing processing drum 12 are arranged vertically opposite each other. The upper clothing processing drum 11 has an upper drying inlet, and the lower clothing processing drum 12 has a lower drying inlet. Specifically, the axis of the upper clothing processing drum 11 is parallel to the axis of the lower clothing processing drum 12, and the openings of the upper clothing processing drum 11 and the lower clothing processing drum 12 face the same direction. The air inlet device includes:

[0046] The first air distribution assembly comprises a first air distribution cavity, an axial inlet of the first air distribution cavity communicating with the first air distribution cavity, an axial outlet 223 of the first air distribution cavity, an upper radial outlet 221 of the first air distribution cavity, and a lower radial outlet 222 of the first air distribution cavity; the lower radial outlet 222 of the first air distribution cavity is connected to the lower drying inlet; specifically, the axial inlet of the first air distribution cavity and the axial outlet 223 of the first air distribution cavity are respectively located at both ends of the axial direction of the first air distribution cavity, and the axial outlet 223 of the first air distribution cavity has a fan-shaped structure;

[0047] A first fan 51 is disposed at the other axial end of the first air distribution cavity and located outside the first air distribution cavity; the first fan 51 has a first fan inlet and a first fan outlet 511, and the first fan inlet and the axial outlet 223 of the first air distribution cavity are connected; specifically, the first fan inlet is located at the end of the first fan 51 close to the first air distribution cavity, and the first fan outlet 511 is located at the upper end of the first fan 51;

[0048] The air collecting component 52 and the air inlet duct 41 are provided. The air collecting component 52 forms an air collecting duct, which includes a first air collecting inlet 531, a second air collecting inlet 532, and an air collecting outlet 533 connected to the air collecting duct. The first air collecting inlet 531 is connected to the radially upward outlet 221 of the first air distribution chamber, and the second air collecting inlet 532 is connected to the first fan outlet 511. The air collecting outlet 533 is connected to the upper drying inlet through the air inlet duct 41.

[0049] The axial inlet of the first air distribution chamber is used to deliver drying airflow into the first air distribution chamber. The first air distribution chamber is used to directly deliver the first part of the drying airflow into the air collection duct, deliver the second part of the drying airflow into the air collection duct via the first fan 51, and deliver the third part of the drying airflow into the downward clothes processing drum 12. The air collection duct is used to deliver drying airflow into the upward clothes processing drum 11.

[0050] When the garment processing equipment is running the drying program, the drying airflow can enter the first air distribution chamber through the axial inlet of the first air distribution chamber. The first part of the drying airflow in the first air distribution chamber can enter the upper garment processing drum 11 through the air collecting duct and the air inlet duct 41. The second part of the drying airflow in the first air distribution chamber can enter the upper garment processing drum 11 through the first fan 51, the air collecting duct and the air inlet duct 41. The third part of the drying airflow in the first air distribution chamber can enter the lower garment processing drum 12.

[0051] The first fan 51 promotes the circulation of drying airflow, increases the flow rate of drying airflow into the upper garment processing drum 11, and solves the problem of insufficient drying airflow and low drying efficiency caused by the excessive length of the air inlet duct 41.

[0052] Specifically, the air collection duct includes a main air collection duct 521 and a branch air collection duct 522. The main air collection duct 521 includes a first air collection inlet 531 and an air collection outlet 533. One end of the branch air collection duct 522 is connected to the main air collection duct 521, and the other end of the branch air collection duct 522 forms a second air collection inlet 532. The flow area of ​​the main air collection duct 521 is larger than that of the branch air collection duct 522. The main air collection duct 521 extends vertically, and the branch air collection duct 522 is located on one side of the main air collection duct 521.

[0053] Preferably, the main air collection duct 521 and the branch air collection duct 522 form an inverted Y-shaped structure, and the air collection component 52 is made of flexible material. The air collection component 52 has a certain amount of tension, which on the one hand ensures reliable connection between the air inlet duct 41, the first air distribution chamber, and the first fan 51 when the clothing processing equipment is running the drying program and the upper clothing processing drum 11 is vibrating; on the other hand, the distance between the first air distribution shell 21 and the upper clothing processing drum 11 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0054] This embodiment also proposes that the garment processing equipment further includes a second air distribution component and a second fan 61. The second air distribution component forms a second air distribution cavity, an upper inlet 321 of the second air distribution cavity connected to the second air distribution cavity, a lower inlet 322 of the second air distribution cavity, and a second air distribution cavity outlet. The upper inlet 321 of the second air distribution cavity and the upper drying outlet are connected through an air outlet 42, and the lower outlet of the second air distribution cavity and the lower drying outlet are connected.

[0055] The second fan 61 is located close to the second air distribution assembly. The second fan 61 has a second fan inlet and a second fan outlet, and the second fan inlet and the second air distribution cavity outlet are connected. The second fan outlet and the axial inlet of the first air distribution cavity are connected through the two-component assembly.

[0056] Furthermore, the air outlet of the air outlet duct 42 and the upper inlet 321 of the second air distribution chamber and the lower drying outlet and the lower inlet 322 of the second air distribution chamber are all connected by a flexible component 43. The flexible component 43 has a certain amount of tension, which on the one hand ensures a reliable connection between the air outlet duct 42 and the first air distribution chamber when the clothing processing equipment is running the drying program and the upper clothing processing cylinder 11 and the lower clothing processing cylinder 12 are vibrating; on the other hand, the distance between the second air distribution shell 31 and the upper clothing processing cylinder 11 and the lower clothing processing cylinder 12 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0057] Specifically, the upper garment processing cylinder 11 includes an upper cylinder opening wall 111, an upper front end wall 112, an upper main body wall 113, and an upper rear end wall connected sequentially from front to back; the upper cylinder opening wall 111 is formed at one end away from the upper front end wall 112 to form an upper cylinder opening, the upper front end wall 112 extends radially along the upper garment processing cylinder 11, and the upper front end wall 112 forms an upper drying inlet; the upper front end wall 112, the upper main body wall 113, and the upper rear end wall form an upper garment processing cavity;

[0058] The air inlet duct 41 is fixedly installed on the front side of the upper front end wall 112, and the air inlet duct 41 extends circumferentially along the upper front end wall 112; the air inlet duct 41 and the upper garment processing chamber are connected through the upper drying inlet.

[0059] An upper drying outlet is formed on the upper side of the upper main body wall 113; the air outlet 42 includes a first air outlet section 421 and a second air outlet section 422. The first air outlet section 421 is disposed on the upper main body wall 113 and extends along the axial direction of the upper clothes processing cylinder 11; the second air outlet section 422 is disposed on the rear side of the upper rear end wall and extends along the circumferential direction of the upper clothes processing cylinder 11; the upper drying outlet, the first air outlet section 421 and the second air outlet section 422 are connected in sequence.

[0060] This embodiment also proposes that the first air distribution assembly includes a first air distribution shell 21 and a first air distribution plate 24; the first air distribution shell 21 is arranged to form a first air distribution cavity, which is a cylindrical structure; one axial end of the first air distribution cavity has an axial inlet, and the other axial end of the first air distribution cavity has an axial outlet 223, which is a fan-shaped structure; the first air distribution cavity has a radially upward outlet 221 and a radially downward outlet 222 in its circumferential direction.

[0061] The first air distribution plate 24 is rotatably disposed within the first air distribution cavity. The first air distribution plate 24 is arc-shaped and coaxially disposed with the first air distribution cavity. When the first air distribution plate 24 is controlled to rotate, the first air distribution plate can open or close either the radially upward outlet 221 or the radially downward outlet 222 of the first air distribution cavity. Specifically, the first air distribution assembly also includes a first air distribution frame 23. The first air distribution frame 23 is rotatably disposed within the first air distribution cavity around the center line of the first air distribution cavity, and the first air distribution plate 24 is disposed at one end of the first air distribution frame 23 away from the center line of the first air distribution cavity. The first air distribution plate 24 can rotate with the first air distribution frame 23. A sealing element is disposed on the side of the first air distribution plate 24 away from the first air distribution frame 23.

[0062] The second air distribution assembly includes a second air distribution shell 31 and a second air distribution plate; the second air distribution shell 31 is configured to form a second air distribution cavity, which is a cylindrical structure; the second air distribution shell 31 has an outlet for the second air distribution cavity at one axial end, and the second air distribution cavity has an upper inlet 321 and a lower inlet 322 in the circumferential direction of the second air distribution cavity.

[0063] The second air distribution plate is rotatably disposed inside the second air distribution cavity. The second air distribution plate is arc-shaped and coaxially disposed with the second air distribution cavity. When the second air distribution plate is controlled to rotate, the second air distribution plate can open or close either the upper inlet 321 of the second air distribution cavity or the lower inlet 322 of the second air distribution cavity.

[0064] Therefore, when the radial upper outlet 221 of the first air distribution chamber and the upper inlet 321 of the second air distribution chamber are opened, the upper garment processing cylinder 11, the air outlet 42, the second air distribution chamber, the second fan 61, the two-component assembly, the first air distribution chamber, the first fan 51, the air collector 52 and the air inlet 41 are connected in sequence to form an upper drying airflow circuit, and the upper garment processing cylinder 11 can be dried.

[0065] When the radial lower outlet 222 of the first air chamber and the lower inlet 322 of the second air chamber are opened, the lower garment processing drum 12, the second air chamber, the second fan 61, the two-component assembly, and the first air chamber are connected in sequence to form a lower drying airflow circuit, and the lower garment processing drum 12 can be dried.

[0066] When both the upper and lower drying airflow circuits are connected, the upper garment processing drum 11 and the lower garment processing drum 12 can dry simultaneously; the structure is simple, the size is small, and multiple drying modes can be achieved, reducing the weight and cost of the garment processing equipment.

[0067] Furthermore, the two-device assembly includes a two-device box 621, in which two devices 622 are disposed, and the two-device box 621 forms two device inlets and two device outlets disposed opposite to each other. The two devices 622 include an evaporator and a condenser. The evaporator is used to dehumidify the drying airflow, and the condenser is used to heat the drying airflow. The outlet of the second fan is connected to the inlet of the two devices, and the outlet of the two devices is connected to the inlet of the first air distribution chamber.

[0068] Specifically, the upper garment processing drum 11 includes an upper inner drum and an upper outer drum. The upper inner drum is rotatably disposed inside the upper outer drum and is used to hold garments. The upper outer drum forms an upper drying inlet and an upper drying outlet. The lower garment processing drum 12 includes a lower inner drum and a lower outer drum. The lower inner drum is rotatably disposed inside the lower outer drum and is used to hold garments. The lower outer drum forms a lower drying inlet and a lower drying outlet.

[0069] In summary, the air inlet duct 41 is fixed to the upper outer drum and swings synchronously with it during the operation of the garment processing equipment. It does not require any clearance with the upper outer drum, which greatly increases the flow area of ​​the air inlet duct 41 and effectively improves drying efficiency. The air outlet duct 42 is also fixed to the upper outer drum. Both the air inlet duct 41 and the air outlet duct 42 have a certain weight, so the air inlet duct 41 and the rear air outlet duct can be used as counterweights; or counterweight blocks can be installed on the air inlet duct 41 and the rear air outlet duct. This helps reduce the swing amplitude of the upper outer drum during movement, reduces the need for additional counterweight parts, and lightens the overall weight of the machine. The air inlet duct 41 and the air outlet duct 42 form a balanced state, reducing the swaying of the garment processing drum during movement and lowering noise.
