[0049] In this utility model, "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" all refer to... Figure 1 The markings in the text shall prevail.

[0050] The following is based on Figures 1 to 9 This invention provides a detailed description of the garment processing equipment.

[0051] In this embodiment, the clothing handling device includes a body (not shown in the figure) and a door structure 100. The body includes a drying assembly and a drum for holding clothes. The door structure 100 is used to close the clothing loading port of the drum. When it is necessary to expose the clothing loading port of the drum, the door structure 100 is rotated to the open position, and the user can take out clothes from the drum or place clothes in the drum.

[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the door structure 100 includes a lint filter device 2, which includes a dust cup 21 and an air duct 23. The dust cup 21 includes an airflow inlet, an airflow outlet, and a filter assembly (not shown in the figure). The air duct 23 includes an air duct inlet 231, a transfer outlet 232, a transfer inlet 233, and an air duct outlet 234. The transfer outlet 232 is connected to the airflow inlet of the dust cup 21, and the transfer inlet 233 is connected to the airflow outlet of the dust cup 21.

[0053] When the garment processing equipment runs the drying program, the drying components in the machine operate to generate hot airflow. The hot airflow enters the drum, carrying away the water from the clothes, becoming humid hot airflow. The humid hot airflow exits the drum, and after removing moisture, it becomes dry hot airflow again. The dry hot airflow then enters the drum, and the cycle repeats to achieve drying. During this process, the airflow will be mixed with lint from the clothes. In this solution, the airflow in the drum of the garment processing equipment can enter the air duct 23 through the air inlet 231, and then sequentially enter the dust cup 21 through the transfer outlet 232 of the air duct 23 and the airflow inlet of the dust cup 21. The airflow is filtered by the filter component in the dust cup 21, and the filtered lint remains in the dust cup 21. The resulting clean airflow (filtered airflow) flows into the air duct 23 sequentially through the air outlet of the dust cup 21 and the transfer inlet 233 of the air duct 23, and then exits through the air outlet 234. The clean airflow formed by the lint filter device 2 finally enters the drum to dry the clothes. It should be understood that "clean airflow" in this article refers to airflow whose dust content meets the basic standard requirements of clothing processing equipment. The dust content of the clean airflow can be adjusted by adjusting the performance of the filter components and the filtration effect.

[0054] In the above technical solution, by configuring a lint filter device 2 in the door structure 100, the airflow during the drying process of the clothing processing equipment can be filtered. Furthermore, the lint filter device 2 includes a dust cup 21 and an air duct 23 that cooperate with each other. The dust cup 21 filters and collects lint, while the air duct 23 guides the airflow. The air duct 23 introduces dust-laden airflow into the dust cup 21 and discharges the clean airflow filtered by the dust cup 21 through the air duct outlet 234, allowing the airflow to flow along a defined path. This avoids or reduces direct contact between the airflow and the wall surface of the door structure 100, thereby preventing stains from remaining on the wall surface of the door structure 100. In other words, by optimizing the structural design of the lint filter device 2, the cleanliness of the door structure 100 can be ensured while providing the door structure 100 with lint filtering functionality.

[0055] In one embodiment, the garment processing equipment includes a body air duct with a filter element installed in it to trap lint mixed in with the airflow. A lint filter 2 mounted on the door structure 100 works in conjunction with the filter element in the air duct to ensure drying efficiency. When the garment processing equipment runs a drying program, it can simultaneously form two circulating airflow channels. One channel is formed by the air duct and the drum, and the other is formed by the door structure 100 and the drum. The simultaneous operation of these two channels improves drying efficiency. Alternatively, when running a drying program, the garment processing equipment can choose to open one circulating airflow channel and close the other. When the filter element in the air duct becomes clogged, the door structure 100, in conjunction with the drum, can form a circulating airflow channel to ensure drying efficiency.

[0056] In one embodiment, the air duct 23 is a one-piece molded structure, which reduces the number of parts, simplifies the assembly process, and reduces the space occupied by the air duct 23.

[0057] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the door structure 100 also includes a door body 1, which is used to close the clothing inlet of the roller, and a lint filter 2 is disposed in the door body 1. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body 1 of the door has an air inlet 12 and an air outlet 13. The air duct inlet 231 is connected to the air inlet 12, and the air duct outlet 234 is directly or indirectly connected to the air outlet 13. When the clothes handling equipment runs the drying program, the airflow in the drum enters the air duct 23 through the air inlet 12, and then enters the dust cup 21 for filtration. The resulting clean airflow enters the air duct 23 and is then passed into the drum through the air duct outlet 234 and the air outlet 13 in sequence.

[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the front of the door body 1 is concave inward to form a cavity 16. An air duct 23 is housed within this cavity 16. By arranging the air duct 23, the airflow entering the cavity 16 is prevented from directly contacting the cavity wall, thus avoiding contamination of the cavity 16. Furthermore, because the front of the door body 1 is concave inward, therefore, as... Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, while forming the cavity 16, a protrusion 17 is formed on the back of the door body 1. When the door structure 100 closes the roller, the protrusion 17 extends into the roller at least partially. By using the cavity 16 of the door body 1 to accommodate the air duct 23, the impact of structural modifications to the door structure 100 on the front-to-back dimensions of the garment processing equipment can be reduced, which is beneficial for miniaturizing the front-to-back dimensions of the garment processing equipment.

[0059] In one implementation, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air inlet 12 of the main body 1 is arc-shaped and is arranged around the central axis of the drum. Specifically, when the drum rotates, the clothes usually move along an arc-shaped path under the centrifugal force provided by the drum. During the movement, the clothes collide with the airflow. In this solution, by limiting the shape of the air inlet 12, the air inlet 12 can match the movement trajectory of the clothes, which is beneficial for the airflow in the drum to pass through the air inlet 12 and enter the air duct 23. That is, it can increase the speed at which the airflow in the drum enters the air duct 23 and improve the drying efficiency.

[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air duct 23 includes an air inlet section 235, which is arc-shaped and extends in the same direction as the door air inlet 12. The side of the air inlet section 235 facing the door air inlet 12 is open, forming the air duct inlet 231. The air duct inlet 231 is large, facilitating rapid airflow. The outer end of the air duct inlet 231 abuts against the door body 1 and communicates with the door air inlet 12. In this design, by setting the air inlet section 235 in an arc shape that matches the door air inlet 12, the air inlet section 235 has few or no dead angles, and its channel faces the door air inlet 12. This reduces airflow turbulence when air enters the air inlet section 235, preventing a decrease in airflow velocity due to turbulence, and facilitating rapid entry of airflow from the roller into the air duct 23. Preferably, the shape and size of the air inlet section 235 are matched with the air inlet 12 of the door, which ensures effective air intake of the air inlet section 235 while facilitating the miniaturization design of the air inlet section 235.

[0061] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 7 As shown, the protrusion 17 on the back of the door body 1 is partially recessed to form an installation cavity 11, in which the dust cup 21 is housed. The door body 1 has a clearance air inlet 191 and a clearance air outlet 192. The transfer air outlet 232 of the air duct 23 is connected to the airflow inlet of the dust cup 21 through the clearance air inlet 191, and the airflow outlet of the dust cup 21 is connected to the transfer air inlet 233 of the air duct 23 through the clearance air outlet 192. The installation cavity 11 and the door air inlet 12 are staggered, and the door air inlet 12 is positioned opposite the cavity 16 to facilitate communication between the door air inlet 12 and the air duct 23.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the air duct 23 is located in front of the mounting cavity 11. Specifically, since the mounting cavity 11 is formed by the protrusion 17 on the back of the door body 1 recessed in the direction away from the roller, the installation cavity 11 results in a limited space in the cavity 16. This solution utilizes the empty space in front of the mounting cavity 11 to accommodate the air duct 23, which is beneficial to reduce the size of the door structure 100 in the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0063] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cavity wall of the chamber 16 of the main body 1 of the door is provided with a first annular air guide structure 161. The extension direction of the first air guide structure 161 matches the air inlet 12 of the door. The first air guide structure 161 is provided with an air guide channel 1611. The first air guide structure 161 is arranged around the air inlet 12 of the door. The outer end contour of the air inlet 231 is sealed to the first air guide structure 161. The air inlet 12 of the door is connected to the air inlet section 235 through the air guide channel 1611. The air guide channel 1611 and the air inlet section 235 cooperate to form the air inlet channel of the door structure 100. The air inlet section 235 and the first air guide structure 161 can be connected by plugging, and a sealing ring is provided at the plugging point to ensure a sealed connection. In this design, because the air duct 23 is located in front of the mounting cavity 11, the distance between the air inlet section 235 and the door air inlet 12 is relatively large. The first air guide structure 161 facilitates the connection between the air duct 23 and the door air inlet 12. Of course, the door body 1 may not have the first air guide structure 161. Alternatively, the dimensions of the air inlet section 235 in the front-rear direction of the door body 1 can be increased to allow the air inlet section 235 to connect with the door air inlet 12. However, in this design, the mounting cavity 11 causes some interference to the connection between the air inlet section 235 and the door body 1, and the depth to which tools need to be inserted during assembly is relatively large, making assembly inconvenient.

[0064] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air duct 23 also includes a connecting section 236 and an air outlet section 237. The air inlet section 235, the connecting section 236, and the air outlet section 237 are connected sequentially. The air duct 23 is a one-piece molded structure. In addition, the air outlet section 237 gradually expands along the airflow direction, which is conducive to the rapid discharge of clean air in the air duct 23. The transfer air outlet 232 and the transfer air inlet 233 are provided on the connecting section 236, and the air outlet 234 is provided on the air outlet section 237. The transfer air outlet 232 is connected to the air inlet section 235, and the transfer air inlet 233 is connected to the air outlet 234.

[0065] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the inlet section 235 and the connecting section 236 are connected to form a roughly D-shaped structure, which can extend the length of the air duct 23. Specifically, when the airflow passes through the filter assembly of the dust cup 21, the flow velocity will decrease to a certain extent. By extending the length of the air duct 23 as much as possible within the limited space of the cavity 16, the residence time of the airflow in the air duct 23 is extended, which is beneficial for the stable passage of airflow through the dust cup 21. In addition, the outlet section 237 is connected to the side of the connecting section 236 away from the inlet section 235. The structural design of the air duct 23 is more rational, which can make full use of the limited space of the cavity 16 to ensure that the air duct 23 has a certain length.

[0066] In one implementation, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the door air inlet 12 includes multiple air inlet holes 121, and all the air inlet holes 121 are arranged in an arc shape as the door air inlet 12.

[0067] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lint filter device 2 also includes a fan 22. The air outlet 234 of the air duct is connected to the inlet end of the fan 22 through a rubber joint to achieve active air intake. Thus, if the door structure 100 is required to participate in airflow filtration, the fan 22 is turned on; if the door structure 100 is not required to participate in airflow filtration, the fan 22 is turned off. Furthermore, the fan 22 is housed in the cavity 16, making full use of the internal space of the door body 1, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the door structure 100.

[0068] Furthermore, the main body of the door 1 is provided with a door air outlet 13 and a ring-shaped second air guide structure 18. The second air guide structure 18 is arranged around the door air outlet 13 and is sealed to the fan 22. In this solution, the door air outlet 13 of the main body of the door 1 is connected to the fan 22 through the second air guide structure 18, which can reduce the assembly difficulty of the fan 22 and the door air outlet 13.

[0069] Furthermore, the second air guide structure 18 includes an arc-shaped air guide wall 181, which is located on the side of the door air outlet 13 away from the air duct outlet 234. The arc-shaped air guide wall 181 partially surrounds the door air outlet 13 along its circumference. In this way, when the airflow in the fan 22 enters the second air guide structure 18, part of the airflow, guided by the arc-shaped air guide wall 181, can more easily flow towards the center of the drum, which is beneficial for the airflow to fully contact the clothes in the drum. Furthermore, the outer contour of the door air outlet 13 is consistent with the inner contour shape of the second air guide structure 18 to facilitate smooth airflow.

[0070] In one implementation, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the air duct 23 is connected to the door body 1 by fasteners (such as screws), resulting in a simple and stable assembly structure. Specifically, the cavity wall of the cavity 16 is provided with multiple mounting posts 162, each with a first mounting hole 1621. The outer peripheral wall of the air duct 23 is provided with multiple lugs 238, each with a second mounting hole 2381. The first mounting holes 1621 and the second mounting holes 2381 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence and fixed with screws to install the air duct 23 onto the door body 1. Furthermore, since the side of the air inlet section 235 facing the door air inlet 12 is an open structure, in order to ensure a sealed connection between the air inlet section 235 and the first air guide structure 161, some of the mounting posts 162 are integrally formed on the outer peripheral wall of the first air guide structure 161 and arranged around the first air guide structure 161, so that the air inlet section 235 and the first air guide structure 161 fit together tightly.

[0071] In one implementation, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the dust cup 21 is detachably connected to the mounting cavity 11 located on the back of the door body 1. Specifically, the mounting port (not shown in the figure) of the mounting cavity 11 is located on the back of the door body 1, opposite to the roller, and the dust cup 21 is inserted through the mounting port of the mounting cavity 11. When it is necessary to clean the dust cup 21, the door structure 100 is rotated to the open position, and the user can remove the dust cup 21 from the back of the door body 1. The disassembly is convenient and facilitates timely cleaning of the lint collected in the dust cup 21 and cleaning of the filter components in the dust cup 21.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the door structure 100 also includes a rear cover 3, which is detachably connected to the door body 1. The rear cover 3 is used to seal the mounting port of the mounting cavity 11. The rear cover 3 improves the aesthetics of the back of the door structure 100 and prevents water from flowing into the mounting cavity 11. Of course, the door structure 100 may also omit the rear cover 3. For example, the outer contour of the dust cup 21 directly forms part of the back contour of the door structure 100, and a sealing element is provided between the dust cup 21 and the mounting cavity 11 to ensure airtightness.

[0073] In one embodiment, the connection between the dust cup 21 and the mounting cavity 11 includes snap-fit ​​and / or fastening. That is, the dust cup 21 and the mounting cavity 11 can be connected by snap-fit, fastening, or both. The assembly structure is simple and easy to install and remove.

[0074] In one implementation, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the main body 1 of the door also includes a locking element 141 and an unlocking element 151. When the dust cup 21 is installed in the mounting cavity 11, the locking element 141 at least partially blocks the path of the dust cup 21 as it leaves the mounting cavity 11, thereby preventing the dust cup 21 from leaving the mounting cavity 11 and locking the dust cup 21. When the unlocking element 151 moves under external force, it drives the locking element 141 to the unlock position to release the lock on the dust cup 21, allowing the user to easily remove the dust cup 21. In this solution, the locking and unlocking of the dust cup 21 are achieved through the cooperation of the locking element 141 and the unlocking element 151. The locking structure is simple, and the unlocking is easier and less strenuous.

[0075] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the dust cup 21 is provided with a locking groove 211, and a locking member 141 is inserted into the locking groove 211 to lock the dust cup 21. The locking is achieved through the insertion of the locking member 141 into the locking groove 211, and the locking is more stable. Of course, the dust cup 21 may not have a locking groove 211. When the locking member 141 is in the locked position, the locking member 141 can directly abut against the outer wall of the dust cup 21 to prevent the dust cup 21 from falling out of the mounting cavity 11.

[0076] In one implementation, such as Figure 8 As shown, the dust cup 21 has a snap-fit ​​protrusion 212, and the mounting cavity 11 has a snap-fit ​​hole 111. When the dust cup 21 is installed in the mounting cavity 11, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 212 is first snapped into the snap-fit ​​hole 111, and then the assembly is achieved by the insertion of the locking member 141 into the locking groove 211. In this design, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 212 and the snap-fit ​​hole 111 cooperate to position the dust cup 21, achieving pre-installation and facilitating rapid assembly.

[0077] It should be understood that "the back of the door body 1" in this article refers to the side surface of the door body 1 facing the drum, and "the front of the door body 1" refers to the side surface of the door body 1 facing away from the drum. When a user uses the dryer, the user usually faces the front of the door body 1.

[0078] It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and are not intended to encompass all possible implementations included in the claims. Various modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope of this disclosure. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form other embodiments of this utility model that may not be explicitly described. Therefore, the above embodiments only illustrate several implementations of this utility model and do not limit the scope of protection of this utility model patent.
