Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of household appliance technology, specifically, it relates to a washing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing technology, with the development of science and technology and the continuous improvement of user needs, washing machines are constantly being optimized and upgraded in terms of functionality and energy efficiency. For example, functions such as drying and sterilization have been added, reducing energy consumption and greatly improving work efficiency and ease of use.

[0003] A washing machine consists of a cabinet and a control panel mounted on it. The control panel typically houses components such as the computer board, water inlet valve, and water level sensor. To facilitate precise installation of these electrical components, a protruding section is provided on the top of the control panel, with internal mounting positions to accommodate each component. During the washing process, existing washing machines cause the hot, humid water vapor inside the drum to rotate and be expelled through the gap between the lid and the machine body. However, current washing machines rely solely on this gap for venting, which can easily lead to poor venting and inconvenience for users. Therefore, improving the venting efficiency of washing machines is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.

[0004] In view of this, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0021] The air inlet is located on the bottom wall of the groove, and the air outlet is located on the side wall of the groove so that the axes of the air inlet and the air outlet are staggered.

[0022] Furthermore, both the air inlet and the air outlet extend a certain length along the length direction of the groove;

[0023] Alternatively, multiple air inlets and multiple air outlets may be provided, with each air inlet arranged linearly along the length of the groove and each air outlet arranged linearly along the length of the groove.

[0024] Furthermore, the tray body is provided with a drainage groove, which is connected to the clothing inlet;

[0025] The air inlet is connected to the drain groove when the upper cover assembly is closed;

[0026] The vent is connected to the drain channel when the upper cover assembly is opened.

[0027] Furthermore, the main body of the tray includes

[0028] Control panel socket, used to install the control panel;

[0029] Mounting section, used for mounting the upper cover assembly;

[0030] The control panel is located on one side of the mounting portion, and the control panel is higher than the mounting portion;

[0031] The drainage channel is provided on the mounting part, and the exhaust chamber is located above the drainage channel.

[0032] Furthermore, there is an exhaust channel between the rear side of the upper cover assembly and the control panel base, which communicates with the clothing loading port of the panel base body;

[0033] The air outlet is connected to the exhaust channel.

[0034] Furthermore, when the top cover assembly is closed, there is a discharge channel between it and the clothing inlet;

[0035] The discharge channel is connected to the drainage trough;

[0036] A multi-bend path is formed between the discharge channel and the air outlet.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art.

[0038] 1. The washing machine of this utility model adds an exhaust chamber to the top cover assembly, thus adding an exhaust passage on the basis of the original exhaust.

Detailed Implementation

[0055] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0057] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0058] Depending on the method of loading clothes, washing machines can be divided into top-loading and side-loading types. The solution in this embodiment is applied to washing machines with top-loading, i.e., washing machines. The washing machine relies on the pulsator installed at the bottom of the washing tub to rotate forward and backward, causing the clothes to tumble up and down and left and right continuously. This allows the clothes to gently rub against each other and against the tub wall in the water, achieving cleaning under the action of detergent.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the washing machine of this utility model includes a cabinet, a drum module, an impeller, and a motor disposed within the cabinet. The impeller is located at the bottom of the drum module, and a shaft hole is provided at the bottom of the drum module. A drive shaft passes through the shaft hole. The motor is located outside the inner drum, and the main shaft of the motor is connected to the bottom end of the drive shaft, while the top end of the drive shaft is connected to the impeller. An impeller is disposed on the upper surface of the impeller. In use, clothes are placed inside the inner drum and positioned above the impeller. The motor drives the impeller to rotate via the drive shaft, which in turn agitates the clothes inside the inner drum through the impeller, thereby achieving the washing of the clothes.

[0060] In this embodiment, the washing machine also includes a washing machine base body 1 and a top cover assembly 2. The washing machine has an opening at the top of the casing, and the washing machine base body 1 is located at the opening. The washing machine base body 1 has a clothes inlet 11, and the inner circumferential side of the top of the clothes inlet 11 extends downwards to form the peripheral wall of the clothes inlet 11. The top cover assembly 2 is rotatably mounted on the washing machine base body 1 to seal the clothes inlet 11. A main control board module is also provided inside the washing machine base body 1 for controlling the washing mode, washing time, etc.

[0061] In this embodiment, after installation, the side of the washing machine facing the user is considered the front side. A hinge seat is provided on the upper side of the tray body 1, near the rear of the washing machine. The upper cover assembly 2 is connected to the hinge seat via a pivot, allowing it to rotate freely. The upper cover assembly 2 rotates downwards from back to front to close the clothes loading port 11.

[0062] During the washing process, the washing machine generates hot and humid vapor in the drum module. As the drum module rotates forward and backward, this vapor swirls and flows within the relatively enclosed environment. Some of the hot and humid vapor circulates continuously within the drum, while some escapes through the gap between the top cover assembly 2 and the drum base body 1. However, relying solely on this gap for venting can easily lead to poor airflow, causing inconvenience to the user.

[0063] In order to overcome the problems in the washing process of the washing machine, the top cover assembly 2 is provided with an exhaust chamber 22. The exhaust chamber 22 has at least one air inlet 23 and an air outlet 24 to connect the inside of the washing machine with the outside. The air inlet 23 is connected to the clothes loading port 11.

[0064] During the washing process, the water vapor in the drum module enters the exhaust chamber 22 through the clothes loading port 11 and the air inlet 23, and then is discharged to the outside through the air outlet 24. On the basis of the original exhaust (it escapes through the gap between the cover assembly 2 and the main body 1), an additional exhaust passage is added, which improves the efficiency of water vapor discharge.

[0065] After washing or when not in operation, the washing machine maintains constant contact with the outside world through the channel formed by the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24. This allows for real-time exchange and flow of water vapor, effectively drying the inside of the washing machine and preventing the growth of bacteria in the damp internal environment after washing.

[0066] In this embodiment, the exhaust chamber 22 is located at the rear of the upper cover assembly 2, that is, the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are located on the rear side of the upper cover 21. During the washing process, the water vapor in the drum module enters the air inlet 23 through the rear side of the clothes loading port 11, and then exits from the rear side of the washing machine through the air outlet 24, thus preventing water vapor from exiting from the front of the washing machine and affecting the user experience.

[0067] In this embodiment, the upper cover 21 includes a housing 211 and a panel 212. The rear side of the housing 211 is provided with a groove 2111 that is closed at both ends, with the opening of the groove 2111 facing upwards. The panel 212 covers the opening of the groove 2111. The panel 212 and the groove 2111 form an exhaust chamber 22, with an air inlet 23 and an air outlet 24 both located on the groove 2111. Of course, the groove 2111 can also be arranged in a ring shape for ease of processing, but it is necessary to ensure that the groove 2111 on the rear side of the housing 211 is a closed section, that is, water vapor is discharged from the rear side of the upper cover assembly 2 only through the air outlet 24.

[0068] In this embodiment, the upper cover assembly 2 includes an upper cover 21, on which an air inlet 23 and an air outlet 24 are provided. The air inlet 23 is located on the bottom wall of the groove 2111, and the air outlet 24 is located on the side wall of the groove 2111. Since the air inlet 23 is located on the bottom wall of the groove 2111, it facilitates communication between the air inlet 23 and the clothes loading port 11. By placing the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 at different positions in the groove 2111, i.e., on two adjacent walls, the axes of the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are staggered; preferably, the axes of the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are perpendicular. By adjusting the layout of the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24, moisture can be prevented from being directly discharged from the top of the washing machine during the discharge process, thus preventing moisture from falling onto the panel surface and affecting the user experience.

[0069] During the washing process, some of the water vapor in the drum module enters the exhaust chamber 22 through the air inlet 23, and the water vapor is directly discharged through the air outlet 24. Some of the water vapor is discharged through the gap between the upper cover assembly 2 and the main body 1 of the tray, thereby improving the water vapor discharge efficiency.

[0070] In this embodiment, the air inlet 23 is located on the bottom wall of the groove 2111, and the air outlet 24 is located on the side wall of the groove 2111, meaning the axes of the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are perpendicular. When the top cover 21 is closed, the opening direction of the air inlet 23 faces the drum module, and the opening direction of the air outlet 24 faces the rear of the washing machine. During the washing process, the water vapor in the drum module passes through the air inlet 23 and the exhaust chamber 22, and is finally discharged from the rear of the washing machine through the air outlet 24.

[0071] After the washing cycle is complete, when the top cover 21 is in the open position, that is, when the top cover 21 is in a basically vertical position, the air inlet 23 faces the front of the washing machine, and the air outlet 24 faces downward. Even if there is condensation in the groove 2111, it can flow downward under the action of gravity and eventually be discharged through the air outlet 24.

[0072] In this embodiment, the housing 211 includes a support portion 2112 for supporting and fixing the panel 212. The housing 211 is arranged in a ring along the edge of the support portion 2112. Taking the support portion 2112 as rectangular as an example, the housing 211 is arranged in a ring around the support portion 2112, and the panel 212 covers both the support portion 2112 and the housing 211. The air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are located on the same side of the support portion 2112. The panel 212 is completely covered by the housing 211, which can improve the flatness and aesthetics of the top cover 21.

[0073] In this embodiment, the groove 2111 is formed between the rear sidewall of the support portion 2112 and the rear sidewall of the housing 211. The air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are located on the rear side of the support portion 2112. When water vapor is discharged from the air outlet 24, the water vapor is discharged from the rear side of the washing machine, avoiding excessive water vapor condensation on the panel 212 and improving the user experience.

[0074] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the support portion 2112 includes a support plate and a support frame. The groove 2111 is provided along the edge of the support plate, and the support frame is provided on the upper surface of the support plate to provide support and ensure that the panel 212 has a certain load-bearing capacity.

[0075] In this embodiment, the material of the panel 212 can be glass, plastic, or metal, etc. The connection method between the panel 212 and the housing 211 is preferably a detachable connection, such as a snap-fit ​​connection or a screw connection.

[0076] In this embodiment, an exhaust chamber 22 is formed between the panel 212 and the groove 2111, and a cavity is also formed between the panel 212 and the support plate. The cavity and the exhaust chamber 22 are not connected, preventing water vapor from entering the cavity through the exhaust chamber 22. Specifically, the sealing between the cavity and the exhaust chamber 22 can be ensured by setting a sealing element, so that water vapor only flows within the exhaust chamber 22.

[0077] In this embodiment, to improve the efficiency of water vapor discharge, both the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 extend a certain length along the length of the upper cover 21. This ensures that more water vapor enters the air inlet 23 from the clothing inlet 11 at the same time, and more water vapor is discharged from the exhaust chamber 22 at the same time. In this embodiment, both the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 are elongated.

[0078] Of course, multiple air inlets 23 and air outlets 24 can be provided individually, with multiple air inlets 23 arranged at intervals and linearly arranged along the length of the upper cover 21. Specifically, each air inlet 23 is arranged linearly at intervals at the bottom of the groove 2111, and each air outlet 24 is arranged linearly at intervals on the side wall of the groove 2111.

[0079] In this embodiment, the size, shape, and number of the air inlet 23 and the air outlet 24 can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0080] In this embodiment, the main body 1 of the washing machine includes a control panel 12 and a mounting part 13. The control panel 12 and the mounting part 13 are arranged along the front-rear direction of the washing machine, with the control panel 12 located on one side of the mounting part 13. The control panel 12 is higher than the mounting part 13, that is, the control panel 12 and the mounting part 13 are stepped. There is an exhaust channel 4 between the control panel 12 and the rear side of the top cover assembly 2, which communicates with the clothes loading port 11 of the main body 1 of the washing machine.

[0081] In this embodiment, the clothing loading port 11 is located at the center of the mounting part 13, and the upper cover assembly 2 is mounted on the mounting part 13. The mounting position of the upper cover 21 and the mounting part 13 is close to the control panel base 12. When the upper cover 21 is fastened, the upper surface of the upper cover 21 and the upper surface of the control panel base 12 are flush, forming a plane to ensure the aesthetic appearance.

[0082] In this embodiment, the control panel 12 extends upward to a certain height so that electronic components (such as computer board, water level switch, power switch, micro switch, reed switch, safety switch, stop switch, water inlet switch, water inlet valve, etc.) can be installed inside or wires can be routed. The control panel 212 is installed on the upper surface of the control panel 12 for controlling the water inlet or drainage mode, selecting the washing mode, selecting the washing time, selecting the washing parameters, etc.

[0083] In this embodiment, the tray body 1 is provided with a drainage groove 14, which is connected to the clothing inlet 11. The hinge of the upper cover 21 can be installed in the drainage groove 14 for fixed positioning. Since the drainage groove 14 has a concave structure, when there is condensation, it can accumulate in the drainage groove 14 and return to the cylinder module through the clothing inlet 11.

[0084] Specifically, the drain trough 14 is located on the mounting part 13, the exhaust chamber 22 is located above the drain trough 14, and the drain trough 14 is located between the clothing inlet 11 and the control panel 12. When there is condensate or washing water on the control panel 12, it can also enter the drain trough 14.

[0085] In this embodiment, when the top cover 21 is closed, there is a discharge channel 3 between it and the clothes loading port 11, and the discharge channel 3 is connected to the drain trough 14. When the washing machine is working normally, the water vapor in the drum module enters the discharge channel 3 through the clothes loading port 11, and then enters the drain trough 14. Further, the water vapor in the drain trough 14 enters the exhaust chamber 22 through the air inlet 23, and finally exits the washing machine through the air outlet 24.

[0086] In this embodiment, a multi-bend path is formed between the discharge channel 3 and the air outlet 24. Specifically, the water vapor flows from front to back within the discharge channel 3, and from bottom to top from the drain trough 14 to the air inlet 23. Within the exhaust chamber 22, the water vapor can first flow upwards and then be discharged horizontally from the air outlet 24, or it can circulate within the exhaust chamber 22 and then be discharged horizontally from the air outlet 24. By optimizing the path, it can be ensured that all water vapor inside the washing machine can be discharged; simultaneously, extending the path for water vapor discharge improves the efficiency of water vapor discharge.

[0087] In this embodiment, the air inlet 23 is connected to the drain trough 14 when the top cover 21 is closed, and the air outlet 24 is connected to the drain trough 14 when the top cover 21 is open. When the washing machine is working normally, the water vapor in the drum module enters the discharge channel 3 through the clothes loading port 11, and then enters the drain trough 14. The water vapor in the drain trough 14 enters the exhaust chamber 22 through the air inlet 23, and is finally discharged from the inside of the washing machine through the air outlet 24.

[0088] In this way, when the washing machine is working, the path for water vapor to be discharged is unique, that is, water vapor is discharged only from the air outlet 24. When the top cover 21 is open, that is, when the top cover 21 is in a vertical position, the air outlet 24 is at the bottom of the top cover 21, so even if there is condensate in the exhaust chamber 22, it can still enter the drain tank 14 through the air outlet 24.

[0089] In this embodiment, there is a gap between the air outlet 24 and the side wall of the control panel 12 to ensure that water vapor can be discharged through the air outlet 24. Furthermore, the air outlet 24 is lower than the control panel 12. When water vapor is discharged from the air outlet 24, it impacts the side wall of the control panel 12, which also has a condensation effect, and the resulting condensate flows into the drain trough 14. This prevents water vapor from being directly discharged onto the control panel 212 of the control panel 12, thus avoiding impacting the user experience. Therefore, when the washing machine is operating, the path for water vapor discharge is not unique, but the outlet is unique; that is, all water vapor is discharged from the exhaust channel 4.

[0090] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-described technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. The implementation schemes in the above embodiments can also be further combined or replaced. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
