[0040] In related technologies, dryers are equipped with impellers to drive airflow circulation inside the dryer, thereby drying clothes. In some existing technologies, the impeller and the inner drum share a single motor. In this case, the impeller is located at the rear of the dryer, resulting in high noise levels during operation and a poor user experience.

[0041] The following is for reference. Figures 1-7 Description of a garment processing device 1 according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0042] like Figure 3As shown, the garment processing device 1 according to this utility model includes: a housing 10, a base 20, and an air supply component 30. The housing 10 forms an installation space, and a cylindrical body is disposed within the installation space. The interior of the cylindrical body forms a garment processing chamber. The base 20 is disposed at the bottom of the housing 10 to cover the installation space. The base 20 is located at the bottom of the cylindrical body and forms an installation cavity 21a. The installation cavity 21a is provided with a cavity outlet 20a communicating with the garment processing chamber. The air supply component 30 is housed within the installation cavity 21a and is adapted to rotate within the installation cavity 21a to drive airflow between the installation cavity 21a and the garment processing chamber. Specifically, when the air supply component 30 rotates in the mounting cavity 21a, it generates noise. At this time, a housing 10 and a base 20 are provided between the air supply component 30 and the external space of the clothing processing equipment 1. By providing the housing 10 and the base 20 between the air supply component 30 and the external space of the clothing processing equipment 1, the air supply component 30 and the external space of the clothing processing equipment 1 can be separated multiple times to attenuate the wind noise transmitted to the external space of the clothing processing equipment 1, thereby achieving noise reduction of the air supply component 30.

[0043] According to the clothing processing device 1 of this utility model, the air supply component 30 is separated from the external space of the clothing processing device 1 by the outer shell 10 and the base 20 more times, so that at least two layers of sound insulation structure are added in the wind noise transmission path, the sound energy is attenuated, the wind noise generated by the air supply component 30 during operation is effectively reduced, and the user experience is improved.

[0044] In some embodiments, the air supply element 30 is configured as an impeller.

[0045] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, the outer casing 10 includes a rear cover 12, which extends in the height direction and the bottom of the rear cover 12 is adapted to cooperate with the base 20. The rear cover 12 forms a first air vent 12a and a second air vent 12b spaced apart, and a first air duct 12c connecting the first air vent 12a and the second air vent 12b. The first air vent 12a is located at the bottom end of the rear cover 12 and is directly opposite the cavity outlet 20a. The second air vent 12b is located above the first air vent 12a and is connected to the clothing processing cavity. Specifically, the cylinder is generally positioned above the base 20 in the height direction, and the first air duct 12c formed by the rear cover 12 extends in the height direction to connect the garment processing chamber of the cylinder with the mounting chamber 21a of the rear cover 12. This facilitates the flow of air driven by the air supply component 30 between the mounting chamber 21a and the garment processing chamber. During the operation of the air supply component 30, the rear cover 12 and the base 20 can separate the air supply component 30 from the external space of the garment processing equipment 1, reduce the wind noise generated by the air supply component 30, reduce the operating noise of the garment processing equipment 1, and improve the user experience.

[0046] In some embodiments, the housing 10 may include a rear cover 12 and a surrounding panel, the rear cover 12 and the surrounding panel enclosing an installation space that opens toward the bottom, the base 20 being disposed at the bottom of the housing 10 to cover the installation space, and the surrounding panel having an inlet that communicates with the tubular garment processing chamber.

[0047] In some embodiments, the bottom of the rear cover 12 engages with the base 20.

[0048] In some embodiments, the bottom of the rear cover 12 is fixedly connected to the base 20 by fasteners.

[0049] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 20 includes a housing 21 and a cover plate 22. The housing 21 forms a mounting cavity 21a that opens towards the top. The cover plate 22 is disposed on the top of the housing 21, and its edge is spaced apart from the housing 21 to define the cavity outlet 20a. The bottom of the rear cover 12 is connected to the edges of the housing 21 and the cover plate 22. Specifically, an air supply component 30 and other structures (such as a drive motor, heat exchange component 40, etc.) can be disposed in the mounting cavity 21a formed by the housing 21. The cover plate 22 covers the open opening of the mounting cavity 21a. At this time, the cover plate 22, the housing 21, and the rear cover 12 can all serve as sound insulation structures for the air supply component 30. Furthermore, the edge of the cover plate 22 is spaced apart from the housing 21 to define the cavity outlet 20a that connects the mounting cavity 21a with the clothing processing cavity. The bottom of the rear cover 12 is connected to the edges of the housing 21 and the cover plate 22 so that the first air vent 12a can be directly opposite to and connected to the cavity outlet 20a.

[0050] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the base 20 also includes a volute 23, which is disposed within the mounting cavity 21a. The volute 23 forms an airflow inlet 23a, an airflow outlet 23b, and a second air duct 23c communicating with the airflow inlet 23a and the airflow outlet 23b. The air supply component 30 is rotatably disposed in the second air duct 23c. The airflow inlet 23a communicates with the mounting cavity 21a, and the airflow outlet 23b faces the cavity outlet 20a and is directly opposite and connected to the first air outlet 12a. Specifically, the air supply component 30 is disposed within the volute 23. At this time, the noise generated by the air supply component 30 during operation is attenuated multiple times by the volute 23, the housing 21, the cover plate 22, and the rear cover 12, thereby reducing the noise of the clothing processing equipment 1 during operation. The volute 23 is provided to further separate the air supply component 30 from the external space of the clothing processing equipment 1, thereby improving the noise reduction effect.

[0051] Here, the airflow in the mounting cavity 21a enters the second air duct 23c through the airflow inlet 23a of the volute 23. After the air supply component 30 is working to drive the airflow, the airflow with a higher velocity flows from the airflow outlet 23b of the volute 23 to the first air duct 12c of the rear cover 12, and flows into the garment processing cavity under the guidance of the first air duct 12c. Alternatively, when the air supply component 30 is working, the airflow in the garment processing cavity is driven to flow from the second air outlet 12b into the first air duct 12c of the rear cover 12, and then from the first air outlet 12a to the second air duct 23c, thereby entering the mounting cavity 21a.

[0052] In some embodiments, the volute 23 is fixedly disposed in the mounting cavity 21a by fasteners.

[0053] In some embodiments, the air supply element 30 is rotatably disposed on the volute 23 to drive airflow within the second air duct 23c.

[0054] In some existing technologies, the air ducts inside dryers have many bends, resulting in high air resistance and low energy efficiency.

[0055] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the base 20 also has a cavity inlet 20b communicating with the mounting cavity 21a. A heat exchanger 40, suitable for heat exchange with the airflow within the mounting cavity 21a, is also provided inside the mounting cavity 21a. The heat exchanger 40 is located between the cavity inlet 20b and the airflow inlet 23a of the volute 23. Specifically, external airflow from the garment processing device 1 can enter the mounting cavity 21a through the cavity inlet 20b. Under the action of the air supply component 30, the airflow in the mounting cavity 21a flows through the heat exchanger 40 and enters the second air duct 23c. Then, the airflow flows towards the first air duct 12c of the rear cover 12 and, guided by the first air duct 12c, flows into the garment processing cavity. Alternatively, the airflow within the garment processing cavity of the tubular body can be driven by the air supply component 30 to flow from the second air outlet 12b into the first air duct 12c of the rear cover 12, and then from the first air outlet 12a to the second air duct 23c, thus entering the mounting cavity 21a and flowing towards the outside of the garment processing device 1 through the cavity inlet 20b.

[0056] In some embodiments, the heat exchanger 40 includes a condenser and an evaporator.

[0057] Here, in the direction of airflow from the installation cavity 21a to the clothing processing cavity, the air supply component 30 is located downstream of the heat exchange component 40 in the direction of airflow. At this time, the airflow flows through the heat exchange component 40, the volute 23, and the rear cover 12 in sequence, and then enters the interior of the cylinder. The entire airflow channel structure is simple and has no unnecessary bends, which reduces the resistance when the airflow flows.

[0058] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5As shown, the volute 23 includes an arc-shaped plate 231, a first side plate 232, and a second side plate 233. One end of the arc-shaped plate 231 is bent toward each other and spaced apart in the extension direction. The other end of the arc-shaped plate 231 is located on the radially outer side of one end of the arc-shaped plate 231. The first side plate 232 and the second side plate 233 are respectively disposed on both sides of the arc-shaped plate 231 in the axial direction to define the second air duct 23c together with the arc-shaped plate 231. The first side plate 232 and / or the second side plate 233 are provided with airflow inlets 23a. The first side plate 232 and the second side plate 233 together with one end of the arc-shaped plate 231 and the other end of the arc-shaped plate 231 define the airflow outlet 23b. Specifically, the airflow inlet 23a of the volute 23 is opened in the axial direction and is located on the first side plate 232 and / or the second side plate 233; the airflow outlet 23b of the volute 23 is opened in the circumferential direction and is defined by the two ends of the arc-shaped plate 231. In the extension direction of the arc-shaped plate 231, from one end of the arc-shaped plate 231 to the other end of the arc-shaped plate 231, the structural radius enclosed by the arc-shaped plate 231 gradually increases, so that the volute 23 can play a centrifugal acceleration role on the airflow flowing through the second air duct 23c.

[0059] Furthermore, the second air duct 23c inside the volute 23 is defined by the arc plate 231, the first side plate 232, and the second side plate 233. The second air duct 23c can provide centrifugal force for the airflow passing through the second air duct 23c, which facilitates airflow and reduces wind resistance.

[0060] In some embodiments, airflow inlets 23a are provided on both the first side plate 232 and the second side plate 233. At this time, the volute 23 has dual air inlets, and the air supply component 30 provided in the volute 23 also has bidirectional air intake function. This volute 23 structure can greatly increase wind pressure and improve the overall airflow of the machine under the same size.

[0061] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, on the axial cross section of the volute 23, the part of the surface of the arc plate 231 facing the air outlet 23b is recessed in the direction away from the air outlet 23b, so as to provide centrifugal force for the airflow flowing through the second air duct 23c, so that the volute 23 can play a centrifugal acceleration role for the airflow flowing through the second air duct 23c, which facilitates airflow and reduces wind resistance.

[0062] In some existing technologies, the impeller and inner drum of a dryer share the same motor. When the motor reverses, the air volume generated by the impeller is small, and the inner drum cannot reverse for a long time, which affects the working efficiency of the dryer.

[0063] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 4-5As shown, the volute 23 includes a first volute 231 and a second volute 232. The airflow inlet 23a of the first volute 231 and the airflow inlet 23a of the second volute 232 are arranged opposite each other. A first air supply component 31 is arranged inside the first volute 231, and a second air supply component 32 is arranged inside the second volute 232. A first motor 50 is also arranged inside the mounting cavity 21a. The first volute 231 and the second volute 232 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first motor 50 along its axial direction, and a first motor shaft 51 and a second motor shaft 52 are respectively arranged at both ends of the first motor 50 along its axial direction. The first motor shaft 51 is adapted to cooperate with the first air supply component 31 and drive the first air supply component 31 to rotate, and the second motor shaft 52 is adapted to cooperate with the second air supply component 32 and drive the second air supply component 32 to rotate. Specifically, the mounting cavity 21a is provided with multiple volutes 23 and multiple air supply components 30, which makes the air volume of the whole machine large and meets the air volume requirements of the whole machine. The volute 23, the air supply component 30, and the first motor 50 constitute the air-generating component of the clothing processing equipment 1.

[0064] An air supply component 30 is placed inside the first volute 231 and the second volute 232. The first motor 50 is placed between the two volutes 23, and the two motor shafts of the first motor 50 extend to both sides, so that the first air supply component 31 and the second air supply component 32 are fixed on the same motor and driven simultaneously. This increases the overall air volume of the machine while reducing the space occupied by the air-generating components in the mounting cavity 21a, which facilitates the arrangement of other structures and improves space utilization. Furthermore, one motor drives two air supply components 30 to work, which can also reduce the number of parts in the clothing processing equipment 1 and reduce the overall cost. Moreover, the simultaneous operation of the two air supply components 30 also has the advantage of controllable air production of the whole machine.

[0065] Furthermore, this application conceals the first motor 50, the air supply component 30, and the volute 23 inside the base 20. During the sound radiation process, the noise generated by the first motor 50 and the air supply component 30 will be partially blocked by the base 20. In addition, it will be transmitted to the outside of the garment processing equipment 1 through the structure of the outer shell 10, such as the rear cover 12. This method has multiple layers of sound insulation structure in the transmission path, which attenuates the sound energy and has a better noise reduction effect.

[0066] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, a guide plate 121 is provided in the first air duct 12c of the rear cover 12. The guide plate 121 is directly opposite the first air outlet 12a and is inclined toward the second air outlet 12b to guide the airflow in the first air duct 12c toward the first air outlet 12a or the second air outlet 12b.

[0067] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the garment processing device 1 further includes a second motor, which is disposed on the base 20 and / or the outer casing 10 and cooperates with the cylinder to drive the cylinder to rotate. Specifically, the cylinder is driven to rotate by the second motor, and the air supply component 30 is driven to rotate by the first motor 50, which can reduce the noise generated by the whole machine and allow the cylinder and the air supply component 30 to work independently without affecting each other.

[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the base 20 is provided with a second motor mounting position 60 for mounting a second motor.

[0069] Here, clothing processing equipment 1 can refer to drying equipment.

[0070] In summary, according to the clothing processing device 1 of this utility model, by setting the outer shell 10 and the base 20 between the air supply component 30 and the external space of the clothing processing device 1, the air supply component 30 and the external space of the clothing processing device 1 can be spaced out multiple times to attenuate the wind noise transmitted to the external space of the clothing processing device 1, thereby reducing the noise of the air supply component 30 and improving the user experience.
