If it is necessary to determine whether the clothes are completely dried, the unit that detects the status of clothes can only be placed at the air inlet and outlet of the clothes processing drum. The difference in airflow at the air inlet and outlet is used to determine whether the clothes are dried. This method has low detection accuracy, and the electrical components cannot sense the status of clothes at close range and perform specific functions. Utility Model Content

[0055] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0056] The specific technical features described in the specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. For example, different combinations of specific technical features can form different embodiments and technical solutions. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in this invention will not be described separately.

[0057] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used merely to distinguish different objects and do not indicate that the objects have the sameness or relationship. It should be understood that the directional descriptions "above," "below," "outside," and "inside" refer to the orientation under normal use conditions, while "left" and "right" refer to the left and right directions shown in the corresponding diagrams, which may or may not be the left and right directions under normal use conditions.

[0058] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Unless otherwise specified, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element. "A plurality of" means two or more.

[0059] It is understood that the type of clothing processing device 1 provided in this application embodiment is not limited, and can be a dryer, washer-dryer combo, etc., and is not limited here. Exemplarily, this application embodiment uses a dryer as an example to illustrate the clothing processing device 1.

[0060] The garment processing device 1 includes a garment processing cylinder 10, which has a garment processing chamber 10a.

[0061] It is understandable that the garment processing cylinder 10 can be a single-cylinder structure, meaning that the garment processing device 1 has only one cylinder, the garment processing cylinder 10. Of course, in other examples, the garment processing device 1 may also include an outer cylinder, and the garment processing cylinder 10 may be fitted inside the outer cylinder.

[0062] This application describes an embodiment of a garment processing device 1 with a single-tube structure as an example.

[0063] For example, the garment processing drum 10 is generally hollow and cylindrical. The garment processing drum 10 may be made of metal, such as stainless steel, etc., and there is no limitation on this.

[0064] The garment processing device 1 provided in this application includes the box assembly in any embodiment of this application, and / or the tube assembly in any embodiment of this application.

[0065] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The housing assembly 11 defines an accommodating space, within which the garment processing tube 10 is located. Specifically, the housing assembly 11 is an external component of the garment processing equipment 1, which protects the internal garment processing tube 10.

[0066] The clothes handling drum 10 is rotatably disposed within the housing assembly 11. Exemplarily, the clothes handling drum 10 can be used to place and dry clothes, and it can rotate the clothes. Taking a tumble dryer as an example, the rotation axis of the clothes handling drum 10 is horizontal, and the front side of the clothes handling drum 10 has a clothes inlet, through which the user inserts or removes clothes from the clothes handling chamber 10a. During rotation, the clothes handling drum 10 moves the clothes from bottom to top, and under the action of gravity, the clothes fall from top to bottom. Thus, the clothes are dispersed, shaken, and their posture changed under the combined action of the clothes handling drum 10 and gravity.

[0067] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 20 This application provides a housing assembly for a garment processing device 1. The housing assembly includes a housing component 11 and a transmitting module 12. The housing component 11 is provided with a protrusion 114, which has a first outer edge 114a. At least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed on the housing component 11, wherein the transmitting module 12 has a first inner edge 12a, and at least a portion of the first outer edge 114a is located within the area defined by the first inner edge 12a.

[0068] The first outer edge line 114a refers to the edge line of the outer contour of the protrusion 114. The first outer edge line 114a can be a continuous line or a discontinuous line. The first outer edge line 114a can be a complete closed line or an open, non-closed line.

[0069] The protrusion 114 is used to accommodate the bearing housing; in other words, at least a portion of the bearing housing is accommodated within the space formed by the protrusion 114.

[0070] The bearing housing is used to mount the bearing. For example, the garment processing device 1 includes a support shaft, which can be connected to the bearing housing via a bearing. The bearing housing can be fixed to the housing assembly 11, and the support shaft is fixedly connected to the garment processing drum 10. The bearing can be a rolling bearing to reduce frictional losses between the support shaft and the bearing housing during the rotation of the garment processing drum 10.

[0071] For example, at least a portion of the bearing housing is accommodated in the protrusion 114, and the bearing housing can be connected to the housing assembly 11.

[0072] For example, the bearing housing can be detachably or non-detachably connected to the housing assembly 11. Non-detachable connections include, but are not limited to, welding. For example, the bearing housing can be detachably connected to the housing assembly 11 via fasteners, including but not limited to screws or bolts.

[0073] At least a portion of the launch module 12 is disposed in the housing assembly 11. The entire structure of the launch module 12 may be disposed in the housing assembly 11, or a portion of the structure of the launch module 12 may be disposed in the housing assembly 11, while another portion of the structure of the launch module 12 may be disposed in other structural components.

[0074] The transmitting module 12 is part of a wireless power supply component, which is a device that can transfer energy in a contactless manner. The transmitting module 12 is used to emit energy.

[0075] The first inner edge line 12a refers to the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the transmitting module 12. The first inner edge line 12a can be a continuous line or a discontinuous line. The first inner edge line 12a can be a complete closed line or an open, non-closed line.

[0076] At least a portion of the first outer edge line 114a is located within the area defined by the first inner edge line 12a, that is, at least a portion of the outer edge line of the protrusion 114 is located within the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the transmitting module 12.

[0077] For example, in some embodiments, the entire first outer edge line 114a is located within the area defined by the first inner edge line 12a. In other words, the entire outer edge line of the protrusion 114 is located within the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the transmitting module 12, and the entire structure of the protrusion 114 is surrounded by the transmitting module 12. In other embodiments, a portion of the first outer edge line 114a is located within the area defined by the first inner edge line 12a. In other words, a portion of the outer edge line of the protrusion 114 is located within the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the transmitting module 12, and another portion of the outer edge line of the protrusion 114 is located outside the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the transmitting module 12. A portion of the structure of the protrusion 114 is surrounded by the transmitting module 12, and another portion of the structure of the protrusion 114 is located outside the enclosed area of ​​the transmitting module 12.

[0078] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 6 to 9 This application provides a cylindrical assembly of a clothing processing device 1. The cylindrical assembly includes a clothing processing cylinder 10 and a receiving module 13. The clothing processing cylinder 10 has an air inlet area 100 and a non-air inlet area 200. The air inlet area 100 has an air inlet 100a and / or an air inlet hole 100c. The air inlet 100a and the air inlet hole 100c are adapted for airflow to pass through and enter the clothing processing cylinder 10. The air inlet area 100 has a second inner edge 100b. The non-air inlet area 200 is located within the area defined by the second inner edge 100b. At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is disposed in the clothing processing cylinder 10. The receiving module 13 includes a second outer edge 13a. At least a portion of the second outer edge 13a is located within the area defined by the second inner edge 100b.

[0079] The air inlet 100a and the air inlet hole 100c can send airflow into the clothes processing drum 10. In other words, the air inlet 100a and the air inlet hole 100c are connected to the clothes processing chamber 10a. The airflow enters the clothes processing chamber 10a through the air inlet 100a and the air inlet hole 100c for drying clothes.

[0080] The non-air intake zone 200 is located within the area defined by the second inner edge 100b, that is, the air intake zone 100 surrounds the non-air intake zone 200.

[0081] The second inner edge line 100b refers to the inner edge line of the area enclosed by the air intake zone 100. The second inner edge line 100b is also the boundary between the air intake zone 100 and the non-air intake zone 200. The second inner edge line 100b can be a continuous line or a discontinuous line. The second inner edge line 100b can be a complete closed line or an open, non-closed line.

[0082] At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is disposed in the clothing processing tube 10. Alternatively, all of the receiving module 13 may be disposed in the clothing processing tube 10, or a portion of the receiving module 13 may be disposed in the clothing processing tube 10, and another portion of the receiving module 13 may be disposed in other structural components.

[0083] The garment handling drum 10 may include a rear drum and a front drum. The front drum is connected to the front end of the rear drum and forms a garment inlet. The rear drum has a rear cover 102, and at least a portion of the receiving module 13 may be disposed in the rear drum. The front drum may be generally cylindrical with openings at both ends, and the rear drum may be generally cylindrical with an opening on one side of the front.

[0084] In some embodiments, the entire structure of the receiving module 13 may be located on the circumferential sidewall of the rear barrel around the axis of rotation.

[0085] In other embodiments, a portion of the receiving module 13 may be disposed on the side wall of the rear tub facing the rear plate, such as the rear cover 102, while another portion of the receiving module 13 may be disposed on the circumferential side wall of the rear tub around the axis of rotation.

[0086] The second outer edge line 13a refers to the edge line of the outer contour of the receiving module 13. The second outer edge line 13a can be a continuous line or a discontinuous line. The second outer edge line 13a can be a complete closed line or an open, non-closed line.

[0087] The receiving module 13 is part of the wireless power supply module and is used to receive energy from the transmitting module 12. The wireless power supply component is a device that can transfer energy in a contactless manner. For example, the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 can be wirelessly connected through electromagnetic induction. The receiving module 13 receives electrical energy wirelessly. During the synchronous rotation of the receiving module 13 with the clothes handling drum 10, there is basically no problem of interference between the conductive wire and the clothes handling drum 10.

[0088] Exemplarily, the transmitting module 12 can be electrically connected to the main control board of the clothing processing device 1. The main control board is used to control the operation of the clothing processing device 1 and supply power to various parts within the clothing processing device 1, enabling the circuits of each part to work normally, so as to realize functions such as drying control. Exemplarily, the transmitting module 12 is electrically connected to the main control board through a conductive wire harness to receive the power supplied by the main control board and transmit electromagnetic signals to the receiving module 13.

[0089] The transmitting module 12 is wirelessly connected to the receiving module 13, meaning that the transmitting module 12 can wirelessly transmit power to the receiving module 13. Thus, the electrical components installed in the clothing handling drum 10 can be electrically connected to the receiving module 13, which supplies power to the components to meet their power needs.

[0090] It should be noted that an electrical component can be a structural element capable of performing an electrical function and / or used in a circuit to perform at least one electrical function. The number of electrical components can be one, two, three, or more.

[0091] The electrical components can be units for detecting the condition of the clothing, as well as other units that can have specific functions to improve drying performance. For example, the unit for detecting the condition of the clothing can be for detecting the temperature, conductivity, etc. of the clothing.

[0092] For example, the receiving module 13 is disposed in the clothing processing drum 10. Electrical components, such as units for detecting the state of clothing, can be disposed inside the clothing processing drum 10 and electrically connected to the receiving module 13 to obtain electrical energy. When the clothing processing drum 10 rotates, the receiving module 13 and the electrical components rotate synchronously. The electrical connection between the receiving module 13 and the electrical components is relatively stable, and the receiving module 13 can also receive electrical energy transmitted from the transmitting module 12 during rotation. In this way, the electrical components disposed inside the clothing processing drum 10 can sense the state of clothing at close range and perform specific functions, thereby improving the working performance of the clothing processing device 1. For example, the judgment performance of the clothing processing device 1 can be improved.

[0093] The housing assembly provided in this application embodiment has two aspects. First, the transmitting module 12 is part of a wireless power supply component, which is a device capable of transmitting energy in a contactless manner. The transmitting module 12 is used to emit energy, facilitating the installation of electrical components on the clothing processing drum 10 for close-range detection of clothing and execution of specific functions, thereby increasing the reliability of the clothing processing device 1. Second, at least a portion of the first outer edge 114a is located within the area defined by the first inner edge 12a. That is, at least a portion of the protrusion 114 is located within the area defined by the first inner edge 12a, and at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 surrounds at least a portion of the protrusion 114. With this design, during the assembly of the transmitting module 12 to the housing assembly 11, the protrusion 114 constrains the installation position of at least a portion of the transmitting module 12, providing positioning and limiting functions for the transmitting module 12, reducing assembly difficulty, and improving assembly efficiency.

[0094] The cylinder assembly provided in this application embodiment has two aspects. First, the receiving module 13 is part of the wireless power supply assembly. The receiving module 13 receives electrical energy wirelessly, which facilitates the installation of electrical components on the clothing processing cylinder 10 for close-range detection of clothing and execution of specific functions, thereby increasing the reliability of the clothing processing device 1. Second, at least a portion of the second outer edge line 13a is located within the area defined by the second inner edge line 100b, and at least a portion of the receiving module 13 is located in the non-air inlet area 200. During the assembly of the receiving module 13 to the clothing processing cylinder 10, the second outer edge line 13a constrains the installation position of at least a portion of the receiving module 13, serving as an installation positioning and limiting function, reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.

[0095] In some embodiments, the entire second outer edge 13a is located within the area defined by the second inner edge 100b. That is, the second outer edge 13a does not protrude into the second inner edge 100b, and the receiving modules 13 are all located in the non-air inlet area 200. The receiving modules 13 will not significantly affect the airflow entering the garment processing chamber 10a through the air inlet area 100, thereby reducing wind resistance and improving the operational reliability of the garment processing equipment 1.

[0096] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 20 The protrusion 114 protrudes toward the interior of the housing assembly 11 for mounting the bearing housing. That is, the protrusion 114 protrudes toward the receiving space, and the recessed space formed by the protrusion 114 is used to receive the bearing housing.

[0097] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 20The transmitting module 12 and the protrusion 114 are located on the same side of the same sidewall of the housing assembly 11. For example, the protrusion 114 protrudes inward, and the transmitting module 12 is located on the inside of the sidewall where the protrusion 114 is located. Or, for another example, the protrusion 114 protrudes outward, and the transmitting module 12 is located on the outside of the sidewall where the protrusion 114 is located.

[0098] In this embodiment, the protrusion 114 and the transmitting module 12 are located on the same side of the same side wall of the housing assembly 11, which to some extent avoids interference between the transmitting module 12 and the bearing seat.

[0099] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 The air intake zone 100 includes multiple air inlets 100a, which are arranged at intervals around the non-air intake zone 200. The edges of the multiple air inlets 100a form a second inner edge 100b.

[0100] Air inlet 100a is connected to clothing processing chamber 10a, and air inlet 100a is used to guide airflow into clothing processing chamber 10a. The airflow can be used to dry clothes, and clothing processing equipment 1 can have a drying function.

[0101] The edge line of the air inlet 100a refers to the edge line of the air inlet 100a near the non-air inlet area 200. For example, multiple air inlets 100a can be formed on the rear-facing side wall of the clothes handling drum 10, such as the rear cover 102, and the edge lines of the multiple air inlets 100a can be the edge lines of each air inlet 100a near the rotation axis of the clothes handling drum 10.

[0102] In this embodiment, multiple air inlets 100a can increase airflow, thereby improving drying efficiency. Multiple air inlets 100a are arranged at intervals around the non-air inlet area 200. The area of ​​each air inlet 100a is moderate, balancing ventilation and the strength requirements of the clothes handling drum 10. The inner edges of the multiple air inlets 100a form a second inner edge 100b. At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is surrounded by the multiple air inlets 100a, which fully utilizes the non-air inlet area 200 to provide an installation location for the receiving module 13, reducing the impact on the air inlets 100a.

[0103] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 21 , Figure 21 The dashed line in the middle is a virtual extension line 100ca. The air inlet area 100 includes multiple air inlets 100c. The virtual extension line 100ca, which is formed by the edge line of the air inlet 100c closest to the non-air inlet area 200, is the second inner edge line 100b.

[0104] The arrangement of the multiple air inlets 100c is not limited. For example, the multiple air inlets 100c can be arranged in a matrix, or the multiple air inlets 100c can be arranged in multiple concentric circles with the non-air inlet area 200 as the center. Of course, the multiple air inlets 100c can also be arranged in other forms, which are not limited in this application.

[0105] As an example, the multiple air inlets 100c can be arranged in concentric circles with the non-air inlet area 200 as the center. The air inlet 100c closest to the non-air inlet area 200 is the first air inlet 100c, which forms the innermost circle. The virtual extension line 100ca formed by the edge lines of the multiple first air inlets 100c is the second inner edge line 100b. In other words, the virtual extension line 100ca can be the envelope of the air inlet 100c closest to the non-air inlet area 200.

[0106] In this embodiment, multiple air inlets 100c can increase airflow, thereby improving drying efficiency. The virtual extension line 100ca formed by the edge lines of the air inlets 100c closest to the non-air inlet area 200 is the second inner edge line 100b. At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is surrounded by multiple air inlets 100c, which can make full use of the non-air inlet area 200 to provide an installation position for the receiving module 13 and reduce the impact on the air inlets 100c.

[0107] Understandably, the area of ​​the air inlet 100c can be smaller than the area of ​​the air inlet 100a. In some cases, the area of ​​the air inlet 100c can be much smaller than the area of ​​the air inlet 100a. For example, the area of ​​the air inlet 100a can be five times or more the size of the area of ​​the air inlet 100c. In this way, the air inlet 100c can, to some extent, help to block lint and hair.

[0108] In some embodiments, the second inner edge line 100b is a continuous line or a discontinuous line. That is, the second inner edge line 100b can be a continuously extending line without interruption, or the second inner edge line 100b can be multiple discontinuous line segments.

[0109] For example, the inner edges of multiple air inlets 100a form a second inner edge 100b, the multiple air inlets 100a are arranged at intervals, and the second inner edge 100b is a discontinuous line.

[0110] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 At least a portion of the launch module 12 is in the form of a first annular structure, the first annular structure having a first inner edge 12a.

[0111] The first ring structure refers to a structure that is hollow and ring-shaped.

[0112] The shape formed by the outer edge of the first ring structure includes, but is not limited to, circles, ellipses, polygons, or irregular shapes. Irregular shapes refer to irregular shapes. For example, the first ring structure can be a circular ring structure or an elliptical ring structure, etc.

[0113] The edge line of the hollow space enclosed by the first annular structure is the first inner edge line 12a.

[0114] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is in the form of a first annular structure so that the first annular structure surrounds the protrusion 114.

[0115] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is in the form of a second ring structure, the second ring structure having a second outer edge 13a.

[0116] The second ring structure refers to a ring-shaped structure with a hollow space.

[0117] The shape formed by the outer edge of the second ring structure includes, but is not limited to, circles, ellipses, polygons, or irregular shapes. Irregular shapes refer to irregular shapes. For example, the second ring structure can be a circular ring structure or an elliptical ring structure, etc.

[0118] The outer edge line of the second ring structure is the second outer edge line 13a.

[0119] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the receiving module has a second annular structure so that the air intake area 100 surrounds the second annular structure.

[0120] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 20 The transmitting module 12 includes a transmitting coil 121, and the receiving module 13 includes a receiving coil 131. The transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 are arranged at intervals relative to each other. The receiving coil 131 is used to receive the electromagnetic signal emitted by the transmitting coil 121 and generate an induced current.

[0121] Specifically, the transmitting coil 121 generates a changing magnetic field, and the receiving coil 131 generates an induced current through electromagnetic induction, receives electrical energy from the transmitting coil 121, and outputs electrical energy.

[0122] The transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 are arranged at a distance from each other. For example, there is a certain distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131, and the projection of the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 overlap at least partially with a plane perpendicular to the front-back direction as the projection plane.

[0123] In this embodiment, the receiving coil 131 can be disposed in the clothing processing drum 10, and the receiving coil 131 can rotate with the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10. The transmitting coil 121 can be disposed in the housing assembly 11. During the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the receiving coil 131 rotates relative to the transmitting coil 121. The receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121 are arranged at a distance from each other. During the rotation, the receiving coil 131 can also receive electrical energy transmitted from the transmitting coil 121. In this way, the electrical components disposed in the clothing processing drum 10 can sense the status of the clothing and perform specific functions at close range, thereby improving the working performance of the clothing processing equipment 1. Exemplarily, this can improve the judgment performance of the clothing processing equipment 1.

[0124] In some embodiments, the first ring structure includes a ring-shaped transmitting coil 121.

[0125] In some embodiments, the second ring structure includes a ring-shaped receiving coil 131.

[0126] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The transmitting module 12 includes a first bracket 122 and a transmitting coil 121. The first bracket 122 includes an annular body 1221 with a first annular groove 1221a. The transmitting coil 121 is accommodated in the first annular groove 1221a. The annular body 1221 has a first inner edge 12a.

[0127] As an example, the first ring structure includes a ring-shaped body 1221 and a ring-shaped transmitting coil 121.

[0128] Specifically, the first annular groove 1221a is the annular space defined by the structure of the annular body 1221 itself.

[0129] In this embodiment, the first annular groove 1221a provides installation space for the transmitting coil 121. Both the annular body 1221 and the transmitting coil 121 are annular. The annular body 1221 has a first inner edge line 12a, that is, the annular body 1221 surrounds the protrusion 114, and the protrusion 114 provides positioning and limiting function for the annular body 1221.

[0130] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The receiving module 13 includes a second bracket 132 and a receiving coil 131. The second bracket 132 includes an annular portion 1321 with a second annular groove 1321a. The receiving coil 131 is accommodated in the second annular groove 1321a. The annular portion 1321 has a second outer edge 13a.

[0131] As an example, the second annular structure includes an annular portion 1321 and an annular receiving coil 131. The shape of the receiving coil 131 may be approximately the same as the shape of the second annular groove 1321a.

[0132] Specifically, the second annular groove 1321a is the annular space defined by the structure of the annular portion 1321 itself.

[0133] In this embodiment, the receiving coil 131 is used to generate an induced current to achieve wireless energy transmission. The second annular groove 1321a provides installation space for the receiving coil 131 to facilitate its positioning and installation. Both the annular portion 1321 and the receiving coil 131 are annular, and the annular portion 1321 has a second outer edge 13a. That is, the air inlet area 100 surrounds the annular portion 1321, and the air inlet area 100 provides positioning and limiting functions for the annular portion 1321.

[0134] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 16 The garment processing device 1 includes a detection unit 15, which is used to detect the electrical conductivity of the garments in the garment processing drum 10. The detection unit 15 is electrically connected to the receiving module 13.

[0135] It is understood that the detection unit 15 is one of the aforementioned electrical components.

[0136] The detection unit 15 can detect the conductivity of the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 10a. The clothing processing equipment 1 can determine the degree of drying based on the conductivity detected by the detection unit 15. For example, the detection principle of the detection unit 15 can be as follows: the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 10a contacts the two detection electrodes of the detection unit 15, causing the detection circuit of the detection unit 15 to conduct. The resistance values ​​of the load, such as clothing, vary depending on its moisture level; that is, the moisture level of the load, such as clothing, is related to its conductivity, and the degree of drying is determined based on the conductivity.

[0137] In this embodiment, the detection unit 15 is disposed inside the clothing processing drum 10, and the receiving module 13 provides power to the detection unit 15. The detection electrode of the detection unit 15 can contact the clothing and other loads in the clothing processing chamber 10a, thereby sensing the degree of drying of the clothing at close range and effectively improving the accuracy of judging the degree of drying of the clothing and other loads in the clothing processing drum 10.

[0138] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 The garment processing tube 10 includes a tube body 101 and a rear cover 102. The rear cover 102 is located at the rear end of the tube body 101 and has an air inlet area 100 and a non-air inlet area 200. At least a portion of the receiving module 13 is located on the rear cover 102.

[0139] Specifically, the front of the tube body 101 is open to form a clothing loading port, and the rear end of the tube body 101 cooperates with the rear cover 102. The tube body 101 and the rear cover 102 together define the clothing processing chamber 10a. Exemplarily, the rear end of the tube body 101 can be detachably connected to the rear cover 102.

[0140] It is understandable that the side of the rear cover 102 away from the cylinder body 101 is sealed to the rear plate 111, and the rear cover 102 can rotate relative to the rear plate 111 to form a dynamic sealing connection.

[0141] In this embodiment, the rotation axis of the clothing processing tube 10 can extend in the front-to-back direction, the rear cover 102 has an air inlet area 100 and a non-air inlet area 200, the airflow enters the clothing processing chamber 10a from the rear side, and at least a portion of the receiving module 13 is disposed on the rear cover 102, so that at least a portion of the receiving module 13 is coaxially disposed with the clothing processing tube 10.

[0142] In some embodiments, the annular portion 1321 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 away from the body 101. That is, the annular portion 1321 is located outside the garment processing tube 10, and the annular portion 1321 is located on the rear side of the garment processing tube 10. With this design, the garments in the garment processing cavity 10a will not come into contact with and abrade the annular portion 1321, and the distance between the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121 disposed on the annular portion 1321 can be relatively close.

[0143] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 19 The housing assembly 11 includes a rear plate 111 with a protrusion 114, and at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed on the rear plate 111.

[0144] It should be noted that the rear panel 111 refers to the component of the housing assembly 11 located on the rear side of the garment processing device 1 in the front-to-back direction. The rear side is the side of the garment processing device 1 that is furthest from the user after installation.

[0145] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed on the rear plate 111 so that the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 are spaced apart relative to each other.

[0146] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 The rear cover 102 includes a core 1021, an outer ring structure 1022, and a support arm 1023. The outer ring structure 1022 surrounds the outer periphery of the core 1021, and the support arm 1023 connects the core 1021 and the outer ring structure 1022. The core 1021, the outer ring structure 1022, and the support arm 1023 together define the air inlet 100a. The annular portion 1321 and the bearing seat are both disposed on the core 1021.

[0147] The core 1021 is located approximately in the central area of ​​the back cover 102. The support arm 1023 connects the core 1021 to the outer ring structure 1022, which enables the back cover 102 to have sufficient structural strength and increases the structural stability of the clothing treatment tube 10.

[0148] For example, the support arm 1023 can be integrally formed with the core 1021 and the outer ring structure 1022; or, the support arm 1023 can be connected to the core 1021 and the outer ring structure 1022 by means of rivets, welding, threaded connection, etc., without limitation.

[0149] In this embodiment, the annular portion 1321 and the bearing seat are both disposed in the core portion 1021. That is, the annular portion 1321 and the bearing seat are approximately disposed in the central area of ​​the rear cover 102, which facilitates the receiving coil 131 to be coaxially disposed with the clothing processing tube 10 and facilitates the increase of the stability of the receiving coil 131 as it rotates with the clothing processing tube 10.

[0150] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 Multiple support arms 1023 are distributed circumferentially along the core 1021 to define the space between the core 1021 and the outer ring structure 1022 as multiple air inlets 100a.

[0151] In this embodiment, multiple air inlets 100a are spaced out by multiple support arms 1023, which can not only meet the structural strength requirements of the clothes processing drum 10, but also meet the air volume requirements during the clothes drying process.

[0152] It should be noted that at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed on the rear plate 111. This can be because the transmitting module 12 is an integrated component and is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102 or on the side of the rear plate 111 away from the rear cover 102. Alternatively, the various components of the transmitting module 12 can be distributed in different locations on the rear plate 111. For example, some components are disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, while other components are disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 away from the rear cover 102.

[0153] It should be noted that the annular portion 1321 is disposed on the rear cover 102, which means that at least a part of the receiving module 13 is disposed on the rear cover 102. In this case, the entire structure of the receiving module 13 can be disposed on the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111 or the rear cover 102 facing the cylinder body 101. Alternatively, a part of the structure of the receiving module 13 can be disposed on the rear cover 102. This part of the structure can be disposed on the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111 or the rear cover 102 facing the cylinder body 101. The other part of the structure of the receiving module 13 can be disposed inside the cylinder body 101 or in other positions. No restrictions are imposed here.

[0154] Understandably, the receiving module 13 can rotate along with the clothes processing drum 10. During the rotation of the clothes processing drum 10, the receiving module 13 rotates relative to the transmitting module 12. The distance between the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 can be relatively short, ensuring the installation safety of the transmitting module 12 while enabling the transmitting module 12 to transmit sufficient electrical energy to the receiving module 13 without increasing its operating power.

[0155] In this embodiment, the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 can transmit electrical energy without contact, realizing the transmission of electrical energy between the relatively rotating clothing processing drum 10 and the relatively stationary rear plate 111. This power transmission is achieved without wire connections, ensuring high reliability. Furthermore, the electrical components of the clothing processing device 1 can be housed within the clothing processing drum 10, with the receiving module 13 supplying power to them. This facilitates meeting the power requirements of the electrical components and allows for close-range sensing of the clothing status, improving the overall performance of the clothing processing device 1. The placement of the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 provides sufficient installation space and safety for the transmitting module 12 while minimizing the distance between them, increasing the reliability of power transmission. Simultaneously, it reduces the likelihood of interference between the electrical connection between the transmitting module 12 and the main control board and the clothing processing drum 10, increasing the reliability of the electrical connection between the transmitting module 12 and the main control board.

[0156] Understandably, in some examples, the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 can transmit signals in addition to transmitting electrical energy. That is, the clothing information detected by the electrical components can be transmitted to the receiving module 13, and the receiving module 13 can then transmit the information to the transmitting module 12.

[0157] Of course, in other embodiments, the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 may only transmit electrical energy. The clothing processing device 1 may be equipped with a wireless transmission unit. The receiving module 13 can provide electrical energy to the wireless transmission unit, and the wireless transmission unit can receive clothing information detected by electrical components and transmit it wirelessly.

[0158] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 7 The garment processing device 1 includes a rear cover 17, which covers the rear surface of the rear plate 111 and together with the rear plate 111 defines an air supply channel. The rear plate 111 has an air outlet. The airflow in the air supply channel flows through the air outlet and the air inlet 100a to the garment processing chamber 10a. At least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed in the part of the rear plate 111 not covered by the rear cover 17.

[0159] Exemplarily, the garment processing drum 10 also has an air outlet, and the garment processing chamber 10a connects the air inlet 100a and the air outlet. Dry hot air enters the garment processing chamber 10a from the air inlet 100a, and humid hot air leaves the garment processing chamber 10a from the air outlet. The rear sidewall of the rear plate 111 forms a return air inlet and an air supply inlet communicating with the air inlet 100a. The height of the return air inlet is lower than the height of the air supply inlet. The rear cover 17 covers the area around the air supply inlet and the return air inlet, and together with the rear sidewall of the rear plate 111, defines an air supply channel. The air supply channel connects the return air inlet and the air supply inlet. Dry hot air enters the garment processing chamber 10a through the return air inlet, the air supply channel, and the air supply inlet to dry the clothes.

[0160] For example, please refer to Figure 13 The garment processing equipment 1 may also include a base 16, which has a drying tunnel, an air supply channel and a drying tunnel together to form a circulating air duct. The drying tunnel is located upstream of the air supply channel along the airflow direction in the circulating air duct. The drying tunnel is connected to the air outlet. The airflow after heat and moisture exchange with the garment can enter the drying tunnel through the air outlet, complete condensation dehumidification and heating in the drying tunnel, and form a new dry hot airflow. The new dry hot airflow then enters the garment processing chamber 10a through the return air port, the air supply channel and the air supply port.

[0161] There is no limit to the number of air outlets; there can be one or more air outlets, for example, two, three, four, or five air outlets.

[0162] It should be noted that at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed in the part of the rear plate 111 not covered by the rear cover 17, that is, at least a portion of the transmitting module 12 is disposed in the part of the rear side of the rear plate 111 outside the rear cover 17. It is possible that the entire structure of the transmitting module 12 is located in the part of the rear plate 111 outside the rear cover 17, or it is possible that a part of the structure of the transmitting module 12 is located in the part of the rear plate 111 outside the rear cover 17. In this case, the other part of the structure of the transmitting module 12 can be located in the air supply channel or on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the clothing processing drum 10.

[0163] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the launching module 12 is disposed on the rear plate 111 outside the rear cover 17, which can reduce the impact of airflow on the launching module 12 and also ensure a sufficient safe distance between the launching module 12 and the clothing handling tube 10, thereby increasing the installation stability and operational safety of the launching module 12.

[0164] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 13 The transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131, and the clothing processing tube 10 are arranged coaxially.

[0165] The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the rear plate 111. Specifically, the transmitting coil 121 can be disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, or it can be disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 away from the rear cover 102.

[0166] The receiving coil 131 can be located on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the cylinder 101 or on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111.

[0167] For example, the transmitting coil 121 is arranged opposite to the receiving coil 131, so as to reduce the impact of the rotating clothes handling drum 10 on the transmitting coil 121 and increase installation safety.

[0168] It should be noted that the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can always remain coaxial and relative to each other, that is, no matter where the clothes handling drum 10 rotates, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 always remain coaxial and relative to each other. Alternatively, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can be coaxial and relative to each other at a specific position, that is, the receiving coil 131 can move to that set position and be coaxial and relative to the transmitting coil 121 as the clothes handling drum 10 rotates.

[0169] In this embodiment, during the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, regardless of the position of the receiving coil 131 as it rotates with the clothing processing drum 10, the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121 always maintain a relative state. This allows the receiving coil 131 to continuously and stably receive the electrical energy transmitted by the transmitting coil 121, thereby continuously providing power to the electrical components of the clothing processing drum 10. In other words, during the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the receiving coil 131 can always provide effective and sufficient power to the electrical components, eliminating the need for additional auxiliary power supply structures and increasing the power supply reliability of the clothing processing device 1.

[0170] In some embodiments, the receiving module 13 includes a receiving circuit board 133 (see [link to documentation]). Figure 12 The receiving circuit board 133 is electrically connected to the receiving coil 131.

[0171] For example, the receiving circuit board 133 includes a modulation / demodulation circuit and a power output circuit. The modulation / demodulation circuit can realize signal conversion, and the power output circuit can realize the output of electrical energy.

[0172] The receiving module 13 can be electrically connected to electrical components through the receiving circuit board 133.

[0173] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 12 The garment processing device 1 includes a lifting rib 14, which protrudes radially from the circumferential inner wall of the garment processing cylinder 10, and a receiving circuit board 133 is disposed within the lifting rib 14.

[0174] Specifically, the lifting rib 14 can contact the clothes inside the clothes processing chamber 10a and drive the clothes to rotate with the clothes processing cylinder 10. For example, the clothes move upward under the action of the lifting rib 14, and then move downward under the action of gravity and centrifugal force, so that the clothes continuously change their posture inside the clothes processing chamber 10a.

[0175] For example, please refer to Figure 15 The lifting rib 14 may have a connecting channel 14a extending along the length direction of the lifting rib 14, and the receiving circuit board 133 may be disposed in the connecting channel 14a.

[0176] In this embodiment, the lifting rib 14 provides mounting space for the receiving circuit board 133, reducing the chance of the receiving circuit board 133 coming into contact with clothing and increasing the installation reliability of the receiving circuit board 133. Of course, electrical components can also be housed within the lifting rib 14, and there are no restrictions on this.

[0177] In this embodiment, the receiving circuit board 133 and the receiving coil 131 are arranged separately, and the receiving circuit board 133 is arranged inside the lifting rib 14, which facilitates the electrical connection between the lifting rib 14 and the electrical components, increases the reliability of power supply, and reduces power loss.

[0178] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 11 The garment processing device 1 includes a conical cap 18, one end of which is connected to the side of the rear cover 102 near the cylinder 101, and the receiving circuit board 133 is located inside the conical cap 18.

[0179] Specifically, a conical cap 18 is disposed on the clothes processing drum 10. One end of the conical cap 18 is connected to the side of the rear cover 102 near the drum body 101, and the other end extends toward the inside of the drum body 101. The conical cap 18 can disperse the clothes during the rotation of the clothes processing drum 10, reducing the chance of clothes tangling or knotting, making the drying of clothes more uniform and improving the drying effect of clothes.

[0180] For example, the conical cap 18 can be connected to the portion of the rear cover 102 that is approximately at the center.

[0181] In this embodiment, the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed inside the conical cap 18. The conical cap 18 provides installation space for the receiving circuit board 133, and the conical cap 18 can reduce the probability of the receiving circuit board 133 coming into contact with clothing to a certain extent, thereby increasing the installation reliability of the receiving circuit board 133.

[0182] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8The receiving module 13 includes a receiving circuit board 133 and an extension structure 1323. The extension structure 1323 is connected to the radially outer side of the annular portion 1321, and the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed on the extension structure 1323.

[0183] In this embodiment, the extension structure 1323 is connected to the outer side of the annular portion 1321 in the radial direction. The extension structure 1323 will not interfere with the bearing seat. The extension structure 1323 provides space for the receiving circuit board 133, so that the distance between the receiving circuit board 133 and the receiving coil 131 is relatively close, which facilitates the electrical connection between the receiving circuit board 133 and the receiving coil 131.

[0184] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second bracket 132 includes a connecting portion 1322, which is connected to the radial inner side of the annular portion 1321 and is connected to the rear cover.

[0185] In this embodiment, the connecting part 1322 is connected to the rear cover, which avoids setting fasteners on the annular part 1321, thereby preventing fasteners from damaging the receiving coil 131 in the annular part 1321.

[0186] The distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 is unlimited.

[0187] In some embodiments, the distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 is 4 mm to 10 mm. For example, 4 mm, 4.5 mm, 5.5 mm, 5.7 mm, 6 mm, 6.2 mm, 6.6 mm, 7 mm, 7.4 mm, 8 mm, 8.6 mm, 9 mm, 9.3 mm, 9.8 mm, 10 mm, etc.

[0188] It should be noted that the distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 refers to the distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 along their axial direction when they are arranged opposite each other.

[0189] Understandably, if the distance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil is too large, the induced current generated by the receiving coil will be smaller, and thus the main control board of the garment processing equipment will need to provide more operating power to the transmitting coil. If the distance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil is too small, the distance between the transmitting coil and the garment processing drum will be smaller, which will increase the probability of interference between the transmitting coil and the garment processing drum and increase the probability of damage to the transmitting coil.

[0190] In this embodiment, the distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 is neither too large nor too small, and there is a sufficient safe distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the clothes handling drum 10. While increasing the working safety of the transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131 can generate a sufficient induced current to meet the power demand of the electrical components.

[0191] It is understood that the arrangement of the transmitting circuit board 123 on the rear plate 111 outside the rear cover 17 is not limited. The transmitting circuit board 123 may be directly connected to the rear side wall of the rear plate 111, or the transmitting circuit board 123 may be integrated into other circuit modules of the garment processing device 1 located on the rear side of the rear plate 111.

[0192] In some embodiments, the transmitting circuit board 123 may also be integrated into the voltage conversion module of the garment processing device 1, which is used to convert alternating current to direct current.

[0193] For example, the voltage conversion module is electrically connected to the main control board to convert AC power to DC power.

[0194] The transmitter circuit board 123 is integrated into the voltage conversion module, eliminating the need for additional installation space for the transmitter circuit board 123 and making it easier to achieve electrical connection between the transmitter circuit board 123 and the main control board.

[0195] In some embodiments, the transmitting circuit board 123 is electrically connected to the transmitting coil 121; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The transmitting circuit board 123 is located on the side of the rear plate 111 away from the clothes handling drum 10, and the transmitting coil 121 is located on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the clothes handling drum 10.

[0196] In this embodiment, both the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are disposed on the rear plate 111, which facilitates shortening the connection distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123, reducing the probability of electromagnetic interference and reducing power loss.

[0197] The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the garment processing drum 10, that is, the transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the front side of the rear plate 111. The transmitting coil 121 can be disposed close to the receiving coil 131 to reduce the distance between them. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can be arranged along the axial direction of the garment processing drum 10, so that during the rotation of the garment processing drum 10, no matter where the receiving coil 131 rotates with the garment processing drum 10, the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121 can always maintain a relative state, which facilitates the receiving coil 131 to continuously and stably receive the electrical energy transmitted by the transmitting coil 121, and achieves effective and sufficient power supply.

[0198] The transmitting circuit board 123 is located on the side of the rear plate 111 away from the clothes handling drum 10. The rear plate 111 provides some protection for the transmitting circuit board 123, reducing the impact of airflow on it and decreasing the likelihood of lint and other impurities carried by the airflow adhering to it, thus increasing the installation safety of the transmitting circuit board 123. It also facilitates wired connection between the transmitting circuit board 123 and the main control board.

[0199] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 The garment processing device 1 includes a first bracket 122, a transmitting circuit board 123 electrically connected to a transmitting coil 121, and the transmitting circuit board 123 and the transmitting coil 121 are integrated on the first bracket 122.

[0200] In this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are integrated by the first bracket 122, eliminating the need to connect the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 with wires. This reduces the high assembly load caused by interlaced wires, facilitates power transmission, and reduces power loss and electromagnetic interference. Since the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are disposed on the same plane, the overall structure of the transmitting module 12 is simple and compact, and the installation and maintenance of each component are highly convenient. The first bracket 122 provides mounting support for the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123, increasing the installation stability of the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123.

[0201] It is understood that in this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are integrated on the first bracket 122 to form a whole. This whole can be located on the side of the back plate 111 facing the clothing processing tube 10, or it can be located on the part of the back plate 111 outside the back cover 17. There is no limitation here.

[0202] It is understood that in embodiments where the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are spaced apart, the transmitting coil 121 can also be supported on the first bracket 122, and the connection with the rear plate 111 can be achieved through the first bracket 122.

[0203] The specific structure of the first support 122 is not limited.

[0204] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The first bracket 122 includes an annular body 1221, a connecting ear 1222 connected to the annular body 1221, a transmitting coil 121 disposed on the annular body 1221, and the connecting ear 1222 connected to the rear plate 111.

[0205] In this embodiment, the annular body 1221 provides installation space for the transmitting coil 121, and the connecting ear 1222 is connected to the rear plate 111. The annular body 1221 and the connecting ear 1222 stabilize the installation position of the transmitting coil 121 in the clothing processing equipment 1, reduce the probability of damage to the transmitting coil 121, and increase the working stability of the transmitting coil 121.

[0206] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The annular body 1221 has a first annular groove 1221a, which is open on the side facing the clothing processing tube 10, and the transmitting coil 121 is housed in the first annular groove 1221a.

[0207] Specifically, the first annular groove 1221a is an annular space defined by the structure of the annular body 1221 itself. The side of the first annular groove 1221a facing the clothing processing drum 10 is open, which facilitates the relative arrangement of the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131, and realizes effective power transmission. The side of the first annular groove 1221a facing the rear plate 111 can be closed to provide support for the transmitting coil 121 and reduce the probability of the transmitting coil 121 detaching from the first annular groove 1221a.

[0208] The specific structure of the annular body 1221 is not limited.

[0209] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The annular body 1221 includes a first annular plate 12211, a first inner annular wall 12212, and a first outer annular wall 12213. The first inner annular wall 12212 is disposed on the radial inner edge of the first annular plate 12211, and the first outer annular wall 12213 is disposed on the radial outer edge of the first annular plate 12211. The gap between the first inner annular wall 12212 and the first outer annular wall 12213 forms a first annular groove 1221a.

[0210] Specifically, when the transmitting coil 121 is engaged with the annular body 1221, the transmitting coil 121 is wrapped around the outer circumferential side of the first inner annular wall 12212 and located on the inner circumferential side of the first outer annular wall 12213. One end of the transmitting coil 121 along the axial direction abuts against the first annular plate 12211, thereby realizing the docking of the transmitting coil 121 and the annular body 1221.

[0211] The connecting ear 1222 is disposed on the radially outer side of the first outer ring wall 12213, or the connecting ear 1222 is disposed on the radially inner side of the first inner ring wall 12212.

[0212] In other words, one end of the connecting ear 1222 can be connected to either the first outer ring wall 12213 or the first inner ring wall 12212, and the other end of the connecting ear 1222 is connected to the rear plate 111 to achieve the connection between the first bracket 122 and the rear plate 111. For example, the connecting ear 1222 is located radially outward of the first outer ring wall 12213, thus providing sufficient extension space for a stable connection with the rear plate 111.

[0213] In this embodiment, the connection between the transmitting coil 121 and the annular body 1221 is convenient, making it easy to disassemble and inspect the transmitting coil 121. The annular body 1221 has a simple structure, which can reduce the manufacturing requirements of the first bracket 122. The setting position of the connecting ear 1222 can also reduce the probability of interference with the transmitting coil 121, making it easy to realize the relative arrangement of the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131.

[0214] The connecting ear 1222 can be detachably connected to the rear plate 111. For example, the connecting ear 1222 can be connected to the rear plate 111 by screws, which is not limited here.

[0215] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 The receiving coil 131 is located on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111.

[0216] This facilitates shortening the distance between the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121, enabling efficient power transmission. It also reduces the likelihood of the receiving coil 131 coming into contact with moisture and clothing inside the clothing treatment drum 10, increasing the installation reliability of the receiving coil 131.

[0217] In an embodiment where the transmitting coil 121 is located on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the receiving coil 131 is located on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111. The distance between the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 is reasonable, and the two can be arranged opposite each other without obstruction, making the power transmission more reliable.

[0218] The specific construction of the back cover 102 is not limited.

[0219] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 Multiple support arms 1023 are radially distributed along the circumference of the core 1021, and the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the core 1021 facing the rear plate 111.

[0220] It is understood that the core 1021 is roughly located in the central area of ​​the back cover 102, and the multiple support arms 1023 are radially distributed along the circumference of the core 1021. This means that the multiple support arms 1023 are arranged around the axis of the core 1021. The support arms 1023 can extend in a straight line or in a curve, and there is no restriction here.

[0221] In this embodiment, the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the core 1021 facing the rear plate 111, that is, the receiving coil 131 is approximately disposed in the central area of ​​the rear cover 102. This facilitates the coaxial arrangement of the receiving coil 131 with the clothes processing drum 10 and increases the stability of the receiving coil 131 as it rotates with the clothes processing drum 10. Furthermore, the receiving coil 131 does not affect the airflow entering the clothes processing chamber 10a through the air inlet 100a of the rear cover 102, resulting in high operational reliability of the clothes processing device 1. Additionally, it facilitates the coaxial arrangement of the receiving coil 131 with the clothes processing drum 10.

[0222] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The garment processing device 1 includes a second bracket 132, and a receiving circuit board 133 and a receiving coil 131 are integrated into the second bracket 132.

[0223] In this embodiment, the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 are integrated by the second bracket 132, eliminating the need to connect them with wires. This reduces the high assembly complexity caused by intertwined wires, facilitates power transmission, and minimizes filtering losses and electromagnetic interference. Since the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 are located on the same plane, the overall structure of the receiving module 13 is simple and compact, and the installation and maintenance of each component are highly convenient. The second bracket 132 provides mounting support for the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133, increasing their installation stability.

[0224] The specific structure of the second support 132 is not limited.

[0225] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second support 132 includes an annular portion 1321, a connecting portion 1322, and an extension structure 1323. The connecting portion 1322 and the extension structure 1323 are respectively connected to the annular portion 1321. The receiving coil 131 is disposed in the annular portion 1321. The connecting portion 1322 is connected to the rear cover 102. The extension structure 1323 is disposed on the side of the support arm 1023 away from the clothing processing chamber 10a.

[0226] In this embodiment, the extension structure 1323 provides space for the receiving circuit board 133, and the support arm 1023 provides support for the extension structure 1323, thereby increasing the installation stability of the receiving circuit board 133.

[0227] The annular portion 1321 can be disposed on the side of the core portion 1021 facing the rear plate 111, that is, the annular portion 1321 can be disposed approximately in the central area of ​​the rear cover 102. In this way, the receiving coil 131 can also be disposed approximately in the central area of ​​the rear cover 102. The core portion 1021 has sufficient installation space to accommodate the annular portion 1321, thereby increasing the movement stability of the receiving coil 131.

[0228] It is understood that in embodiments where the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 are spaced apart, please refer to... Figure 9 The receiving coil 131 can also be supported on the second bracket 132, and the connection with the back cover 102 can be achieved through the second bracket 132.

[0229] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The second annular groove 1321a is open on the side facing the rear plate 111.

[0230] Specifically, the second annular groove 1321a is open on the side facing the rear plate 111, facilitating the relative arrangement of the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121 to achieve effective power transmission. The side of the second annular groove 1321a facing the rear cover 102 can be closed to provide support for the receiving coil 131 and reduce the probability of the receiving coil 131 detaching from the second annular groove 1321a.

[0231] The specific structure of the annular portion 1321 is not limited.

[0232] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The annular portion 1321 includes a second annular plate 13211, a second inner annular wall 13212, and a second outer annular wall 13213. The second inner annular wall 13212 is disposed on the radial inner edge of the second annular plate 13211, and the second outer annular wall 13213 is disposed on the radial outer edge of the second annular plate 13211. The gap between the second inner annular wall 13212 and the second outer annular wall 13213 forms a second annular groove 1321a.

[0233] Specifically, when the receiving coil 131 is engaged with the annular portion 1321, the receiving coil 131 is wrapped around the outer circumferential side of the second inner annular wall 13212 and located on the inner circumferential side of the second outer annular wall 13213. One end of the receiving coil 131 along the axial direction abuts against the second annular plate 13211, thereby realizing the docking of the receiving coil 131 and the annular portion 1321.

[0234] The connecting portion 1322 is disposed on the radially outer side of the second outer ring wall 13213, or the connecting portion 1322 is disposed on the radially inner side of the second inner ring wall 13212.

[0235] In other words, one end of the connecting portion 1322 can be connected to either the second outer ring wall 13213 or the second inner ring wall 13212, and the other end of the connecting portion 1322 is connected to the rear cover 102 to achieve the connection between the second bracket 132 and the rear cover 102. For example, the connecting portion 1322 is located radially inside the second inner ring wall 13212. This reduces the likelihood that the connecting portion 1322 will affect the air intake of the clothing handling drum 10 at the rear cover 102.

[0236] In this embodiment, the receiving coil 131 and the annular portion 1321 are easy to connect, which facilitates the disassembly and inspection of the receiving coil 131. The annular portion 1321 has a simple structure, which reduces the manufacturing requirements of the second bracket 132. The location of the connecting portion 1322 also reduces the probability of interference with the receiving coil 131, making it easier to achieve the relative arrangement of the receiving coil 131 and the transmitting coil 121.

[0237] The connecting part 1322 can be detachably connected to the rear cover 102. For example, the connecting part 1322 can be connected to the rear cover 102 by screws, which is not limited here.

[0238] The following combination Figures 10 to 13 The location of the transmitting module 12 and the receiving module 13 in the embodiments of this application will be illustrated by example.

[0239] First embodiment: Please refer to Figure 10 The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the transmitting circuit board 123 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111, and the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111. The transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131 and the clothing processing tube 10 are coaxially arranged.

[0240] In this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 can be integrated on the first bracket 122, and the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 can be integrated on the second bracket 132. During the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can always remain in a relative position to achieve continuous power transmission.

[0241] Second embodiment: Please refer to Figure 11The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the transmitting circuit board 123 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111, and the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed in the conical cap 18 inside the clothing processing tube 10. The transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131 and the clothing processing tube 10 are coaxially arranged.

[0242] In this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 can be integrated on the first bracket 122, while the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 are distributed separately. During the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can always remain in a relative position to achieve continuous power transmission.

[0243] Third embodiment: Please refer to Figure 12 The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the transmitting circuit board 123 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111, and the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed in the connecting channel 14a inside the lifting rib 14. The transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131 and the clothing processing tube 10 are coaxially arranged.

[0244] In this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 can be integrated on the first bracket 122, while the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 are distributed separately. During the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can always remain in a relative position to achieve continuous power transmission.

[0245] Fourth embodiment: Please refer to Figure 13 The transmitting coil 121 is disposed on the side of the rear plate 111 facing the rear cover 102, the transmitting circuit board 123 is disposed between the rear cover 17 and the rear plate 111, the receiving coil 131 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111, and the receiving circuit board 133 is disposed on the side of the rear cover 102 facing the rear plate 111. The transmitting coil 121, the receiving coil 131 and the clothing processing tube 10 are coaxially arranged.

[0246] In this embodiment, the transmitting coil 121 and the transmitting circuit board 123 are distributed separately, while the receiving coil 131 and the receiving circuit board 133 can be integrated onto the second bracket 132. During the rotation of the clothing processing drum 10, the transmitting coil 121 and the receiving coil 131 can always remain in a relative position to achieve continuous power transmission.

[0247] The installation position of the detection unit 15 inside the garment processing drum 10 is not limited.

[0248] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 16The detection unit 15 includes a detection electrode 151 and a detection circuit that are electrically connected to each other. The detection electrode 151 is disposed on the outer surface of the lifting rib 14, and the detection circuit is disposed inside the lifting rib 14. The detection circuit is electrically connected to the receiving module 13.

[0249] Specifically, the detection electrode 151 is disposed on the outer surface of the lifting rib 14, which facilitates close contact with loads such as clothing. The detection circuit is disposed inside the lifting rib 14. That is, while the lifting rib 14 can be used to move the clothing in the clothing processing cavity 10a, it can also provide installation space for the detection circuit, thereby reducing the probability of the detection circuit contacting the clothing to a certain extent and increasing the installation and working reliability of the detection unit 15.

[0250] In this embodiment, the receiving circuit board 133 of the receiving module 13 can be disposed in the lifting rib 14, or it can be integrated with the receiving coil 131 in the second bracket 132, and the second bracket 132 is connected to the core 1021.

[0251] For example, the detection electrode 151 may be entirely located on the outer surface of the lifting rib 14 along the circumferential direction, or a portion of the detection electrode 151 may be located on one outer side of the lifting rib 14 along the circumferential direction, and another portion may be located on the top side of the lifting rib 14 along the radial direction away from the peripheral sidewall of the clothing processing cylinder 10.

[0252] The specific structure of the detection electrode 151 is not limited.

[0253] For example, please refer to Figures 16 to 19 The detection electrode 151 includes a first electrode and a second electrode, both located on the outer surface of the lifting rib 14. The first electrode includes a first connecting structure 1511 and at least two first teeth 1512 connected to the first connecting structure 1511. The second electrode includes a second connecting structure 1513 and at least two second teeth 1514 connected to the second connecting structure 1513. The first teeth 1512 and the second teeth 1514 are arranged alternately. That is, there is one second tooth 1514 between any two adjacent first teeth 1512, and the distance between the first teeth 1512 and the second teeth 1514 is greater than zero.

[0254] In this embodiment, the first tooth 1512 and the second tooth 1514 are arranged alternately to form an interdigitated structure. One first tooth 1512 and one second tooth 1514 constitute an electrode pair. The detection electrode 151 has at least two electrode pairs. The clothing contacts at least two electrode pairs. The conduction between each electrode pair can be regarded as a resistor. At least two electrode pairs can be regarded as at least two resistors in parallel, thereby making the detection of changes in conductivity more sensitive, improving the detection accuracy and sensitivity of the detection electrode 151, reducing problems such as incomplete drying or over-drying to a certain extent, and improving drying performance.

[0255] The specific structural form of the first tooth 1512 is not limited; it can be plate-shaped or columnar, etc. The specific structural form of the second tooth 1514 is not limited; it can be plate-shaped or columnar, etc. Among them, the cross-sectional shape of the columnar shape is not limited; it can be circular or polygonal, etc. Polygons include quadrilaterals, pentagons, etc. It can be understood that polygons can include rounded polygons.

[0256] For some examples, please refer to Figure 17 and Figure 19 The first connecting structure 1511 and the second connecting structure 1513 both extend linearly in parallel, and all the first teeth 1512 and all the second teeth 1514 are located between the first connecting structure 1511 and the second connecting structure 1513. That is to say, the first connecting structure 1511 and the second connecting structure 1513 can be roughly in the form of a straight line or a curved structure.

[0257] For example, the shape of the first tooth 1512 is approximately the same as that of the second tooth 1514, the first tooth 1512 is approximately parallel to the second tooth 1514, and the first connecting structure 1511 and the second connecting structure 1513 are both straight lines and approximately parallel.

[0258] In this embodiment, the first electrode and the second electrode have a simple and compact structure and a neat and beautiful appearance.

[0259] For some examples, please refer to Figure 19 The first electrode and the second electrode are roughly in the same plane. Thus, the first electrode and the second electrode are roughly flat, occupying less space and saving space inside the clothing processing tube 10.

[0260] Both the first electrode and the second electrode are made of conductive materials; for example, both the first electrode and the second electrode are made of metal.

[0261] For some examples, please refer to Figure 16 and Figure 17 A portion of the first tooth 1512 protrudes away from the lifting rib 14 to form a first protrusion 1512a. The first protrusion 1512a not only enhances the structural strength of the first tooth 1512 but also facilitates contact with clothing, increasing the contact area. The first protrusion 1512a may be convex-arc shaped. The surface of the first protrusion 1512a away from the lifting rib 14 is arc-shaped.

[0262] For some examples, please refer to Figure 16 and Figure 17A portion of the second tooth 1514 protrudes away from the lifting rib 14 to form a second protrusion 1514a. The second protrusion 1514a not only enhances the structural strength of the second tooth 1514 but also facilitates contact with clothing, increasing the contact area. The second protrusion 1514a may be convex-arc shaped. The surface of the second protrusion 1514a away from the lifting rib 14 is arc-shaped.

[0263] In some examples, the surface of the first tooth 1512 away from the lifting rib 14 is curved. The surface of the first tooth 1512 away from the lifting rib 14 needs to come into contact with the clothing, and the curved surface can, to some extent, prevent the clothing from getting caught and reduce mutual wear between the clothing and the first tooth 1512.

[0264] In some examples, the surface of the second tooth 1514 away from the lifting rib 14 is curved. The surface of the second tooth 1514 away from the lifting rib 14 needs to come into contact with the clothing, and the curved surface can, to some extent, prevent the clothing from getting caught and reduce mutual wear between the clothing and the second tooth 1514.

[0265] For some examples, please refer to Figure 18 The detection electrode 151 includes a first terminal 1515 and a second terminal 1516. The first terminal 1515 is connected to the first electrode component, and the second terminal 1516 is connected to the second electrode component. Both the first terminal 1515 and the second terminal 1516 extend into the lifting rib 14 and are electrically connected to the detection circuit.

[0266] For example, the first terminal 1515 is connected to one of the first teeth 1512, and the second terminal 1516 is connected to one of the second teeth 1514.

[0267] In this embodiment, the first terminal 1515 and the second terminal 1516 are connected to the detection circuit to transmit electrical signals between the detection circuit and the detection electrode 151. The first terminal 1515, the second terminal 1516, and the detection circuit are all located within the lifting rib 14, reducing the probability of the first terminal 1515, the second terminal 1516, and the detection circuit coming into contact with clothing and improving safety.

[0268] In some embodiments, the first electrode element can be a one-piece molded structure. That is, the first connecting structure 1511 and the first tooth 1512, etc., can be manufactured as a single piece.

[0269] In some embodiments, the first electrode and the first terminal 1515 can be integrally formed.

[0270] In some embodiments, the second electrode can be a one-piece molded structure. That is, the second connecting structure 1513 and the second tooth 1514, etc., can be manufactured as a single piece.

[0271] In some embodiments, the second electrode and the second terminal 1516 can be an integrally formed structure.

[0272] The specific construction of the lifting rib 14 is not limited; please refer to some examples. Figure 14 and Figure 15 The lifting rib 14 includes a main body 141 and an extension 142. The main body 141 is disposed on the circumferential surface of the garment processing cavity 10a, and the extension 142 is connected to the rear end of the main body 141 and disposed on the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a. The space within the main body 141 and the space within the extension 142 define a connecting channel 14a. Without increasing the radial dimension of the lifting rib 14, the extension 142 being disposed on the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a can increase the volume of the connecting channel 14a, thereby accommodating the receiving circuit board 133, the detection circuit of the detection unit 15, etc.; the extension 142 can cover a portion of the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a to shield the holes for wire passage provided on the rear sidewall of the garment processing cylinder 10.

[0273] For some examples, please refer to Figure 15 The extension 142 has a rearward opening 142a, and the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a can cover the rearward opening 142a of the extension 142.

[0274] In some examples, the extension 142 may extend toward the rotation axis of the garment processing drum 10, and the apex of the extension 142 protrudes beyond the apex of the main body 141 in the radial direction of the garment processing drum 10. That is, the outer contours of both the main body 141 and the extension 142 are approximately L-shaped.

[0275] In some examples, the rearward surface of the extension 142 is fitted to the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a. This reduces the gap between the extension 142 and the rear surface of the garment processing cavity 10a, preventing lint and debris from entering the communicating channel 14a through the gap.

[0276] In some embodiments, the garment processing device 1 further includes a heat exchange component located within the drying tunnel. The heat exchange component is used to exchange heat with the airflow within the drying tunnel, thereby dehumidifying and heating. The humid and hot airflow within the garment processing cylinder 10 can enter the drying tunnel through the air outlet and exchange heat with the heat exchange component, transforming into dry and hot airflow. The dry and hot airflow enters the air supply channel through the return air inlet and then flows back into the garment processing chamber 10a through the air supply outlet and air inlet 100a.

[0277] In some embodiments, the heat exchange assembly includes a condenser and an evaporator. The clothing processing device 1 also includes a compressor and a throttling device. The compressor, condenser, throttling device, and evaporator are connected by pipes to form a heat pump system, and the refrigerant can circulate within the heat pump system. The airflow in the circulating duct exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the evaporator and condenser to form a dry hot airflow. The evaporator is used to cool and dehumidify the humid hot airflow from the clothing processing chamber 10a into a dry cold airflow; the condenser heats the dry cold airflow into a dry hot airflow and returns it to the clothing processing chamber 10a.

[0278] The working principle of a heat pump system is as follows: The compressor draws in low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and compresses it into high-pressure gaseous state before discharging it. The discharged high-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the condenser, where it transfers heat to the airflow, causing it to condense into a high-pressure liquid. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant is then throttled and depressurized by a throttling device, becoming a low-pressure, low-temperature gas-liquid two-phase mixture that enters the evaporator. The refrigerant in the evaporator absorbs heat from the airflow, becoming a low-pressure gaseous state, which is then drawn back into the compressor. This cycle repeats, achieving heat exchange. In other words, the evaporator cools and dehumidifies the humid airflow from the clothing processing chamber 10a, forming a dry, cool airflow. The condenser heats the dry, cool airflow into a dry, hot airflow, which then flows back into the clothing processing chamber 10a. The dry, hot airflow returning to the clothing processing chamber 10a comes into contact with the damp clothing, forming a humid, hot airflow again, completing one drying cycle. By repeatedly running the drying cycle, circulating airflow is continuously supplied to the clothing processing chamber 10a to dry the clothes.

[0279] For example, both the evaporator and the condenser can be finned tube heat exchangers.

[0280] For example, throttling devices include, but are not limited to, electronic expansion valves.

[0281] In some examples, the garment handling apparatus 1 also includes an impeller for driving airflow. Exemplarily, the impeller is located within the drying duct and between the heat exchange components and the return air vent. During the drying process, the impeller drives the airflow passing through the garments sequentially through the evaporator and condenser before being blown back onto the garments to create a circulating airflow. The impeller can accelerate airflow and improve drying efficiency.
