Therefore, this application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the broadest scope of the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0036] This application provides a garment processing device, which can be a drum-type washing machine, a washer-dryer combo, a shoe washing machine, or other equipment for processing garments. For example, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1-4 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the garment processing equipment provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The shown is a cross-sectional view of the garment processing equipment along the AA direction. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The sectional view shown is an enlarged view of region B. Figure 4 for Figure 1 An exploded view of the garment processing device shown. The garment processing device 10 includes a roller 100 and a turntable 200.

[0037] The rear cover 110 of the roller 100 has a mounting hole 130 that communicates with the internal accommodating space 120. The dial 200 is disposed in the accommodating space 120 and includes a body 210 and a connecting post 220. One end of the connecting post 220 is connected to the body 210, and the other end is provided with an elastic buckle 230. The elastic buckle 230 passes through the mounting hole 130 and engages with the rear cover 110 so that the dial is rotatably connected to the rear cover 110.

[0038] The connecting post 220, the elastic buckle 230, and / or the body 210 can be integrally molded. For example, the dial 200 is a one-piece injection-molded plastic part. See the example below. Figure 5 , Figure 5This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the dial provided in this embodiment. One end of the elastic latch 230 is connected to the end face of the connecting post 220, and the other end is the insertion end 231. The elastic latch 230 includes at least one set of two opposing elastic engaging members 232, with a clearance space 233 formed between the two elastic engaging members 232. When the elastic latch 230 moves along the insertion direction to the first opposing position of the mounting hole 130, the elastic engaging member 232 undergoes elastic deformation and moves into the clearance space 233. When the elastic latch 230 continues to move along the insertion direction to the second opposing position of the mounting hole 130, the elastic engaging member 232 moves away from the clearance space 233 and returns to its original shape, and engages with the back cover 110. The elastic latch 230 engages with the back cover 110 through the mounting hole 130, thereby limiting the elastic latch 230 in the front-rear direction, so that the dial 200 is rotatably mounted on the back cover 110.

[0039] The main body 210 and the rear cover 110 are fitted with a clearance fit, for example. This prevents direct friction and interference between the main body 210 and the rear cover 110, which would affect the smoothness of the rotation of the dial 200.

[0040] Optionally, a receiving groove 111 is formed on the wall of the back cover 110 facing the dial 200, and a mounting hole 130 is formed at the bottom of the receiving groove 111. The receiving groove 111 is suitable for accommodating part of the main body 210. The receiving groove 111 is, for example, disc-shaped, and its diameter is slightly larger than the diameter of the dial 200. This can prevent foreign objects from entering the interior of the main body 210 through the gap between the main body 210 and the back cover 110, and improve the overall aesthetic appearance.

[0041] In practical applications, when the clothing handling device 10 is washing clothes, the drum 100 is driven by a motor to rotate, causing the deflector wheel to move axially relative to the back cover 110 under the drive of water flow and / or clothes. When there are few clothes in the drum 100, the deflector wheel 200 rotates relative to the back cover 110, which can agitate the water flow to change the direction of the water flow, increase the form and force of the water flow on the clothes, and thus improve the cleaning effect on the clothes. When there are many clothes in the drum 100, the deflector wheel 200's blades 212 can hook nearby clothes and drive the clothes to move relative to each other, forming a rubbing effect on the clothes, so as to improve the cleaning effect on the clothes.

[0042] The garment processing device 10 provided in this application embodiment can complete the assembly of the dial wheel 200 and the roller 100 simply by inserting the elastic buckle 230 into the mounting hole 130 in the insertion direction until it is engaged with the back cover 110. This is very convenient and quick.

[0043] Optionally, the mounting hole 130 includes a flange extending toward the opening of the roller 100, the flange surrounding the outer periphery of the connecting post 220. The flange is spaced apart from the connecting post 220, for example. Thus, by limiting the connecting post 220 with the flange, the structural stability of the connecting post 220 and the rotational stability of the dial wheel 200 can be improved. Preferably, the edges of the mounting hole 130 are all designed with rounded chamfers to prevent scratches when the dial wheel 200 rotates and to improve the smoothness of the dial wheel 200's rotation.

[0044] For further details, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 for Figure 5 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the dial. The body 210 may include a center seat 211 and a dial blade 212 arranged circumferentially around the center seat 211. The center seat 211 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting post 220 and connected to the end of the connecting post 220. The center seat 211 has a plurality of first drain holes 2112. A flow space 2111 is formed between the center seat 211 and the connecting post 220. The flow space 2111 communicates with the receiving space 120 through the first drain holes 2112.

[0045] Understandably, the center seat 211 is fitted around the outer periphery of the connecting column 220, which can improve the overall structural strength of the dial wheel 200. The flow space 2111 is connected to the receiving space 120 through the first drain hole 2112 to form a drain channel on the center seat 211, thereby allowing washing water to flow inside the center seat 211, reducing the resistance of the fluid to the rotation of the dial wheel 200, enhancing the rotational force of the dial wheel 200 relative to the drum 100, and improving the stirring effect of the dial wheel 200.

[0046] Optionally, a drain cavity 2121 is formed inside the deflector 212, and the drain cavity 2121 has a plurality of second drain holes 2122 communicating with the receiving space 120. The drain cavity 2121 allows washing water to flow inside the deflector 212, reducing the resistance of the fluid to the movement of the deflector 212, thereby enhancing the rotational force of the deflector 200 relative to the drum 100 and improving the stirring effect of the deflector 200.

[0047] The deflector 212 includes a friction end located away from the center seat 211. To improve the deflecting effect of the deflector 200 on clothing, a concave-convex structure can be provided on the friction end. This enhances the frictional force at the friction end. Preferably, the concave-convex structure is made of a flexible material such as rubber, silicone, or other materials to avoid scratching clothing. The concave-convex structure can be wavy, diamond-shaped, or other shapes; no specific limitation is made here.

[0048] In some embodiments, the rear cover 110 has an annular groove on its wall facing the dial wheel 200, the annular groove surrounding the mounting hole 130, and the body 210 has a rib, which is adapted to slide along an annular trajectory in the annular groove. The rib cooperates with the annular groove to improve the structural stability of the dial wheel 200.

[0049] The garment processing device 10 provided in this application embodiment can complete the assembly of the dial wheel 200 and the roller 100 simply by inserting the elastic buckle 230 into the mounting hole 130 in the insertion direction until it is engaged with the back cover 110. This is very convenient and quick.

[0050] The above provides a detailed description of the garment processing device 10 provided in the embodiments of this application. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
