Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning boxes for fabric cleaning machines, and in particular to a split-type cleaning box for fabric cleaning machines. Background Technology

[0002] The cleaning tank is a crucial component of a fabric cleaning machine. It stores clean cleaning water, providing a water supply for the cleaning process. Cleaning tanks are typically made of durable and hygienic materials, effectively preventing leaks and contamination. Some cleaning tanks are designed with a reasonable capacity to meet single or multiple cleaning needs, and are easy to fill and drain. Their water dispensing system is precisely controllable, ensuring an appropriate amount of water is evenly sprayed onto the fabric surface. Combined with the cleaning machine's functions, this better removes stains, guaranteeing effective and efficient fabric cleaning.

[0003] In traditional designs, cleaning agents are often pre-mixed with water in the cleaning tank or added via a built-in mixing device in a fixed ratio. Users find it difficult to adjust the amount of cleaning agent according to the actual stains. Using too much cleaning agent for light stains is wasteful and may leave residue, damaging the items being cleaned; while for heavy stains, the fixed ratio may be insufficient, resulting in poor cleaning results. To address this problem, we designed a separate cleaning tank that allows users to add cleaning agent as needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a split-type cleaning box for fabric cleaning machines, aiming to solve the problems of traditional designs where cleaning agents are often pre-mixed with water in the cleaning box or added via a fixed-ratio built-in mixing device. This makes it difficult for users to flexibly adjust the amount of cleaning agent according to the actual stains. Excessive use of cleaning agent for light stains is wasteful and may leave residue, damaging the cleaned items; while for heavy stains, a fixed ratio of cleaning agent may be insufficient, resulting in poor cleaning effects.

[0005] To solve the above problems, this utility model proposes a split cleaning box for a fabric cleaning machine, including a cleaning machine body and a cleaning box body located on the left side of the cleaning machine body;

[0006] A cleaning agent supply box is provided on the main body of the cleaning machine adjacent to the main body of the cleaning tank. A supply switch is provided at the lower rear side of the cleaning agent supply box. A supply pipe is provided at the connection position between the main body of the cleaning tank and the lower rear side of the cleaning agent supply box. An output pipe is provided at the lower right side of the main body of the cleaning tank.

[0007] A connecting buckle is provided at the connection position between the main body of the cleaning tank and the main body of the washing machine. An end cap is embedded in the upper part of the main body of the cleaning tank, and a connecting snap is provided at the connection position between the lower left side of the end cap and the cleaning water tank.

[0008] In one embodiment, the cleaning agent supply box is filled with cleaning agent medium inside, and the cleaning agent supply box is connected to the main body of the cleaning box through a supply pipe.

[0009] In one embodiment, the detergent supply tank is equipped with an extrusion pump for driving, and the end of the extrusion pump is connected to a supply pipe, while the front end is connected to the supply switch via a transmission connection.

[0010] In one embodiment, a groove is recessed at the middle position of the end cap, and a sleeve is provided at the inner middle position of the groove.

[0011] In one embodiment, a pressing head is provided at the upper end of the sleeve, and a rotating tube is sleeved and connected at the lower middle position of the sleeve.

[0012] In one embodiment, the upper middle of the rotating tube has an inner cavity, the middle of the sleeve has a cavity, and the lower middle of the pressing head has a rotating rod, which is connected to the inner wall of the upper middle cavity of the rotating tube by a threaded connection.

[0013] In one embodiment, the rotating tube can be rotated on the rotating rod via a thread, and a return spring is provided on the outside of the sleeve cavity where the rotating rod is located.

[0014] In one embodiment, the pressing head and the sleeve can move up and down on the outside of the rotating tube. The sleeve is connected by an insertion connection and a groove. A dome is provided at the lower end of the rotating tube, and five stirring blades are arranged in an equidistant array on the outside of the dome.

[0015] In one embodiment, a wastewater tank is provided on the right side of the main body of the cleaning machine, the main body of the cleaning machine is powered by an external power source, and a handle is provided on the upper middle side of the main body of the cleaning machine.

[0016] In one embodiment, a cleaning pipe is connected to the rear side of the main body of the cleaning machine, and a cleaning head is provided at the end of the cleaning pipe.

[0017] Beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. With independently designed cleaning water tank and detergent supply tank, users can flexibly control the amount of detergent added according to different cleaning tasks and the degree of stains. When cleaning light stains, add less detergent to save on usage; for heavy stains, add more as needed to ensure cleaning effectiveness while avoiding waste, meeting diverse cleaning needs.

[0019] When one component malfunctions or needs replacement, there is no need to replace the entire complex water tank system. For example, if the cleaning water tank is heavily soiled, it can be disassembled and cleaned separately; if the cleaning agent supply tank leaks, the entire tank can be replaced, reducing maintenance costs and complexity.

[0020] 2. The internal pressing and rotating structure of the cleaning tank allows the rotating tube to drive the stirring blades at high speed, thoroughly mixing the liquid and cleaning agent within the tank in a short time. Compared to natural mixing or simple manual stirring, this significantly improves mixing efficiency, enabling the cleaning solution to quickly reach its optimal ratio and enhancing cleaning effectiveness.

[0021] Users can start the mixing process simply by pressing the pump head, without any additional complicated steps or tools. This simple and direct operation lowers the barrier to entry for users, making it easy for both the elderly and children to use, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0022] The five equidistant stirring blades can fully cover the liquid in the tank during rotation, ensuring that the cleaning agent and liquid in every corner are fully mixed, avoiding uneven mixing in certain areas, and making the cleaning effect more stable and reliable.

[0036] refer to Figure 1-7 A split-type cleaning box for a fabric cleaning machine is provided, including a cleaning machine body 1 and a cleaning box body 3 located on the left side of the cleaning machine body 1;

[0037] A cleaning agent supply box 4 is provided on the main body 1 of the cleaning machine and adjacent to the main body 3 of the cleaning box. A supply switch 21 is provided at the lower rear side of the cleaning agent supply box 4. A supply pipe 10 is provided at the connection position between the main body 3 of the cleaning box and the cleaning agent supply box 4 at the lower rear side. An output pipe 14 is provided at the lower right side of the main body 3 of the cleaning box.

[0038] A connecting buckle 11 is provided at the connection position between the cleaning tank body 3 and the washing machine body 1. An end cap 9 is embedded in the upper part of the cleaning tank body 3. A connecting snap 8 is provided at the connection position between the lower left side of the end cap 9 and the cleaning water tank.

[0039] The cleaning agent supply box 4 is filled with cleaning agent medium inside, and the cleaning agent supply box 4 is connected to the main body of the cleaning box 3 through the supply pipe 10. The cleaning agent supply box 4 is equipped with an extrusion pump for driving, and the end of the extrusion pump is connected to the supply pipe 10, and the front end is connected to the supply switch 21 for transmission.

[0040] A wastewater tank 2 is provided on the right side of the main body 1 of the cleaning machine. The main body 1 of the cleaning machine is powered by an external power source. A handle 7 is provided on the upper middle side of the main body 1 of the cleaning machine. A cleaning pipe 5 is connected to the rear side of the main body 1 of the cleaning machine, and a cleaning head 6 is provided at the end of the cleaning pipe 5.

[0041] Preferably, in this device, the cleaning tank body 3 and the cleaning agent supply tank 4 are each formed independently. The cleaning tank body 3 is used to store clean water and has a large volume to meet the water demand during regular fabric cleaning, while the cleaning agent supply tank 4 is relatively small in size and is mainly used to store cleaning agent media. Both are made of corrosion-resistant plastic material.

[0042] A supply pipe 10 is provided between the cleaning tank body 3 and the cleaning agent supply tank 4. One end of the supply pipe 10 is tightly connected to the bottom of the cleaning agent supply tank 4 near the outlet, and the other end is connected to the side of the cleaning tank body 3 near the top. The connection method is a quick-plug connection.

[0043] The supply switch 21 is designed as a push-button type, with an internal extrusion pump valve. When the user presses the supply switch 21, the valve opens, and the cleaning agent medium in the cleaning agent supply tank 4 flows into the cleaning tank body 3 through the supply pipe 10. After releasing the supply switch 21, the valve automatically closes to prevent the cleaning agent medium from continuing to flow out.

[0044] During use, users can press the supply switch 21 at any time to control the amount of cleaning agent added according to cleaning needs. When the water in the cleaning tank body 3 or the cleaning agent in the cleaning agent supply tank 4 is insufficient, the cleaning tank body 3 or the cleaning agent supply tank 4 can be easily disassembled for replenishment. The cleaning water tank is connected to the washing machine body 1 through the output pipe 14 to supply water to the washing machine body 1. The washing machine body 1 is equipped with a water pump that can spray water through the cleaning pipe and use the cleaning head 6 to clean the fabric.

[0045] like Figure 4-7 As shown, a groove 12 is recessed in the middle of the end cap 9. A sleeve 15 is located on the inner side of the middle of the groove 12. A pressing head 13 is located at the upper end of the sleeve 15. A rotating tube 16 is connected to the lower middle of the sleeve 15. An inner cavity is opened in the middle of the upper side of the rotating tube 16. A cavity is opened in the middle of the sleeve 15. A rotating rod 20 is located in the middle of the lower side of the pressing head 13. The rotating rod 20 is connected to the rotating tube 16 by a threaded connection. The upper middle inner wall is connected, and the rotating tube 16 can rotate on the rotating rod 20 through the thread. A return spring 19 is provided on the outside of the cavity of the sleeve 15 where the rotating rod 20 is located. The pressing head 13 and the sleeve 15 can move up and down on the outside of the rotating tube 16 respectively. The sleeve 15 is connected to the groove 12 by the insertion connection. A dome 18 is provided at the lower end of the rotating tube 16, and five stirring blades 17 are arranged in an equidistant array on the outside of the dome 18.

[0046] Preferably, when the user needs to mix the liquid and detergent in the cleaning tank, they can press down on the press head 13. The press head drives the rotating rod 20 downward, and because the rotating rod is threadedly connected to the rotating tube 16, the rotating tube 16 begins to rotate around its own axis. At the same time, the press head 13 and the sleeve 15 move downward outside the rotating tube 16, compressing the return spring 19. The rotating tube 16 presses against the bottom of the cleaning tank body through the dome 18, and the rotation of the rotating tube 16 drives the lower dome 18 and the five equidistantly arranged stirring blades 17 to rotate together. The stirring blades 17 rotate at high speed in the liquid, and through shearing and pushing action, they powerfully stir the liquid and detergent, promoting thorough mixing. After the user releases the press head 13, the return spring 19 releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the press head 13 and the sleeve 15 upward to return to their original position. During this process, the rotating tube 16 continues to rotate at a certain angle due to the thread action until the press head 13 completely returns to its initial position, and the rotating tube 16 stops rotating. The user can complete multiple mixing operations to ensure efficient and stable mixing results.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
