Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing machines, and in particular to a washing machine for aging clothes. Background Technology
[0002] Denim is a special type of fabric, and washing is an important step in its production. Denim fabric is often quite stiff, and washing softens it, making denim garments more comfortable to wear. Unlike regular fabrics, denim is often associated with vintage style, a fashionable and trendy aesthetic. This vintage aesthetic creates a demand for distressed denim fabrics. Denim's stiff texture and thick layers make it well-suited for distressing, and performing this distressing process during the washing stage is a standard industry practice.
[0003] The most common method for distressing clothes is pumice distressing. This involves placing a lot of pumice in the device and using the friction between the pumice and the fabric surface to distress the fabric. However, after the washing is finished, a large number of pumice will become entangled in the fabric. After the fabric is removed, the pumice must be picked out of the fabric, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a washing machine for distressing clothes to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a washing machine for aging clothes, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A washing machine for aging clothes includes: a washing machine body, a fixed cylinder fixedly connected to the inner side of the washing machine body, and a shell fixedly connected to the rear side of the fixed cylinder. A first circular plate is rotatably connected to the rear side of the shell. Multiple connecting columns are fixedly connected to the rear side of the first circular plate. Small connecting rods are rotatably connected to the outer sides of the multiple connecting columns. Long rods are rotatably connected to the other ends of the multiple small connecting rods. Movable plates are fixedly connected to the front sides of the multiple long rods. Multiple friction blocks are fixedly connected to one side of the multiple movable plates. Multiple sliding holes adapted to the friction blocks are opened inside the fixed cylinder. The outer sides of the multiple friction blocks are slidably connected to the inner sides of the corresponding sliding holes. An agitation mechanism is provided inside the washing machine body.

The other end of the rotating connecting rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the movable frame. An L-shaped block is integrally formed on the front side of the fixing block, and a bolt is threadedly connected to the inner side of the L-shaped block. A handwheel is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating rod, and a plurality of round holes adapted to the bolts are opened on the front side of the handwheel. The outer side of the bolt is movably inserted into the inner side of the corresponding round hole, and a friction pad is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the handwheel.
[0010] Preferably, a controller is fixedly connected to the front side of the washing machine body, the controller is electrically connected to the motor, and an outflow pipe is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed drum, with the other end of the outflow pipe extending to the outside of the washing machine body.
[0011] Preferably, a glass door is rotatably connected to the front side of the washing machine body, and a glass window is fixedly connected to the front side of the glass door.
[0012] In this utility model, a washing machine for aging clothes is described. By opening the glass door, the jeans to be washed and the washing liquid are poured into the device. After closing the glass door, the washing process of the jeans can be observed through the glass window. The motor is started, which causes the No. 1 shaft to drive the stirring shaft to rotate, thereby stirring the jeans. The friction block can be controlled to enter the inside of the fixed drum, so that the jeans are stirred when the fixed drum is turned over.
[0013] In this invention, a washing machine for aging clothing is described. By contacting a friction block, friction is generated, thereby creating aged marks. When the friction block needs to be inserted into the device, the handwheel is turned, causing the rotating rod to start rotating, which in turn causes the moving frame to move, thereby driving the first connecting rod to rotate. Furthermore, the circular block begins to move synchronously, causing the second circular plate to start rotating. When the second circular plate rotates, it drives the first circular plate to start rotating. As the first circular plate rotates, the small connecting rod begins to rotate. Furthermore, the long rod drives the moving plate to move horizontally, thereby allowing the friction block to enter the inside of the fixed cylinder, and the liquid inside the fixed cylinder can be discharged from the outlet pipe.
[0014] This utility model has a reasonable structural design. Through the cooperation between the handwheel, the first connecting rod, the first circular plate, the moving frame, the second circular plate, and the small connecting rod, the friction block can be inserted into the device, allowing the jeans to come into contact with it and generate friction, thereby helping to distress the jeans.
