[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning technology, and in particular to a noise reduction structure and a cleaning machine for fabric cleaning machines. Background Technology
[0002] A fabric cleaning machine is a specialized device for cleaning various fabric items. It uses high-pressure jet technology to spray a mixture of cleaning agent and water onto the stains to dissolve and remove them.

They are simple and convenient to operate, and can quickly and effectively complete the cleaning of fabric items.
[0003] However, the fabric cleaning machine relies on a fan to draw in the dirt, and the fan generates a lot of noise during use, which affects the user experience. Research and development is still needed to optimize the air duct structure of the fabric cleaning machine to reduce the noise.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a noise reduction structure for a fabric cleaning machine and a cleaning machine in general to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0038] This utility model embodiment discloses a noise reduction structure for a fabric cleaning machine.
[0039] like Figure 1 and 9 As shown, it includes a fan 2, a motor lower cover 3, an air outlet frame 4, a motor cover 5, and a motor air duct cover 6. The fan 2, the motor lower cover 3, and the air outlet frame 4 are connected in sequence from top to bottom. The motor cover 5 covers the outside of the fan 2, and a heat cavity is formed between the motor cover 5 and the fan 2. The motor air duct cover 6 is connected to the heat cavity of the motor cover 5 and is used to guide and dissipate the heat generated by the fan 2.
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the fan 2 includes a motor 201, an impeller 202, a shroud 203, and a first row of air holes 204. The impeller 202 is rotatably mounted inside the shroud 203. The output end of the motor 201 is coaxially connected to the impeller 202. The shroud 203 and the two ends corresponding to the two ends of the impeller 202 are both open. The first row of air holes 204 are set as a plurality of holes opened on the side wall of the shroud 203. The plurality of first row of air holes 204 are arranged in a ring array along the circumferential surface of the side wall of the shroud 203.
[0041] Motor 201 drives impeller 202 to rotate and draw air. The air enters the shroud 203 from the end away from motor 201 and is discharged from the first exhaust hole 204 and the other end of the shroud 203. The air is dispersed from the two parts, which disperses the wind force and reduces wind noise. The exhaust air passes through motor 201, which helps to cool motor 201.
[0042] like Figure 4 and 10 As shown, the motor lower cover 3 includes a housing 301 and an air inlet duct 302. The housing 301 has a partition 304 inside, which divides the inner cavity of the housing 301 into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The ends of the upper cavity and the lower cavity of the housing 301 are open. The air inlet duct 302 is located in the lower part of the housing 301. An air inlet interface 303 is opened at the outer end of the air inlet duct 302. A central hole 305 is opened in the middle of the partition 304. The air inlet duct 302 passes through the side wall of the housing 301 to its lower cavity, and the end of the air inlet duct 302 is sealed and connected to the central hole 305. Several second exhaust holes 306 are opened on the side of the partition 304 near the edge for the exhaust output of the first exhaust hole 204.
[0043] like Figure 5As shown, the air outlet frame 4 includes a frame body 401. The surface of the frame body 401 is provided with an interface 403 for sealing connection with one end of the housing 301. The frame body 401 is also provided with an air duct 402. One end of the air duct 402 extends to the inner middle of the interface 403. The frame body 401 is provided with an air outlet 404. The air outlet 404 is an arc-shaped strip opening. Multiple air outlets 404 are provided, and they are all located inside the interface 403. The frame body 401 is also provided with a heat dissipation vent 405, which is located outside the interface 403.
[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, the bottom edge of the frame 401 is provided with a first partition 406, which is provided in multiple ways and arranged in one direction. The bottom edge of the frame 401 is also provided with a second partition 407, which is provided in multiple ways and arranged in one direction. The second partition 407 is located on the side close to the heat dissipation port 405. The multiple first partitions 406 and the multiple second partitions 407 are used to disperse the output air and reduce wind noise. The arrangement of the first partitions 406 and the second partitions 407 allows the output air to be output from two directions, further dispersing the airflow and reducing wind noise.
[0045] It should be noted that the bottom opening of the air inlet duct 302 is used for a sealed connection with the air duct 402. The bottom opening of the air inlet duct 302 reduces the amount of material used in the product, thereby reducing costs.
[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, the motor cover 5 is also provided with a sewage inlet 19 and an air pipe inlet 20, which are used for the flow of sewage and the flow of air respectively. The motor cover 5 is also provided with a heat exhaust port for the heat dissipation of the motor 201.
[0047] This utility model also discloses the installation method of the noise reduction structure of the fabric washing machine:
[0048] like Figure 2 , 9 As shown in Figure 10, the motor cover 5 encloses the motor 201, the fan cover 203 is placed in the upper cavity of the housing 301, and the bottom end of the fan cover 203 is sealed and connected to the central hole 305, and the top of the fan cover 203 is sealed and connected to the top end of the housing 301. The top end of the housing 301 is detachably fixed to the motor cover 5. The detachable fixing includes, but is not limited to, fixing with buckles. The air pipe interface 20 of the motor cover 5 is sealed and connected to the air inlet interface 303. The bottom end of the housing 301 is sealed and connected to the interface 403 of the air outlet frame 4, and the air inlet duct 302 is correspondingly sealed and connected to the air duct 402. One end of the motor air duct cover 6 is sealed and connected to the heat exhaust port of the motor cover 5, and the other end is sealed and connected to the heat dissipation port 405.
[0049] It should be noted that after installation, the second exhaust vent 306 is offset from the air outlet 404. That is, the exhaust air passes through the second exhaust vent 306 and enters the lower cavity of the housing 301. It comes into contact with the part of the frame 401 where the air outlet 404 is not located, which acts as a buffer. Then, it moves in the lower cavity of the housing 301 and is discharged along the arc-shaped trajectory of the air outlet 404. This avoids the airflow direction being vertically straight out of the air outlet 404, further reducing wind noise. In addition, the air outlet 404 is an arc-shaped strip, and the exhaust air is output along its arc-shaped trajectory. The arc-shaped structure can further reduce the wind force and further reduce wind noise.
[0050] This utility model also records the airflow trajectory:
[0051] like Figure 6 , 10 As shown in Figure 11, the blower 2 is used for suction of dirt in the fabric cleaning machine. The air enters from the air inlet 303, passes through the air inlet duct 302 and the middle hole 305 in sequence, enters the hood 203 and is discharged from the first exhaust hole 204. It is then diverted through multiple second exhaust holes 306 and discharged. After flowing in the lower cavity of the housing 301, it is diverted from the exhaust holes 404. Furthermore, the airflow is diverted to the first partition 406 and the second partition 407 respectively, and is output by several first partitions 406 and several second partitions 407.
[0052] The induced airflow is guided through a sealed channel, multi-layered diversion, and with the second air vent 306 and the air outlet 404 staggered to avoid direct discharge, the impact force of the airflow is dispersed or reduced in multiple stages to achieve the purpose of noise reduction.
[0053] like Figure 10 and 12 As shown, part of the air drawn by the fan 2 is also discharged from the top of the shroud 203. The airflow flows through the motor 201, carrying away the heat generated by the motor 201 during operation, and is then guided out through the motor duct cover 6. The air drawn by the fan 2 plays a role in heat dissipation for its own operation, thereby improving the working stability of the fan 2.
[0054] This utility model embodiment discloses a fabric cleaning machine.
[0055] like Figure 1 and 7 As shown, the fabric cleaning machine includes a noise reduction structure, a main housing 1, a clean water tank 8, a wastewater tank 9, a water pump 10, and a boiler 11.
[0056] The main housing 1 includes a front housing 101, a rear housing 102, a handle seat 104, and a base 103, which are respectively provided at the front, rear, top, and bottom and can be detachably installed to form the main housing 1. A cavity is formed inside the main housing 1, and installation positions are reserved on the left and right sides of the main housing 1 for the detachable installation of the clean water tank 8 and the sewage tank 9.
[0057] Both the water pump 10 and the boiler 11 are installed in the cavity of the main housing 1, and are used to draw clean water and heat water, respectively. It should be noted that the boiler 11 can heat water in two modes: hot water and hot steam, for hot water cleaning and steam cleaning.
[0058] like Figure 8 As shown, a hose connector 12 is installed on the main housing 1, and the inner end of the hose connector 12 is sealed and connected to the sewage interface 19.
[0059] like Figure 7 As shown, the outer end of the hose connector 12 is sealed with a hose 13, the end of the hose 13 is connected to a handle 15, the end of the handle 15 is connected to a brush head 16, and the hose 13 is provided with a water outlet pipe 14 inside, with the end of the water outlet pipe 14 near the brush head 16 connected to the water inlet of the brush head 16.
[0060] like Figure 1 and 8 As shown, the input end of the water pump 10 is connected to the inner cavity of the clean water tank 8, and the output end of the water pump 10 is connected to the outlet pipe 14 through the boiler 11 via a pipe. The water pump 10 draws clean water from the clean water tank 8, which is heated by the boiler 11 to form hot water or steam, or cold water that is not heated by the boiler 11 is introduced into the outlet pipe 14 and output by the brush head 16 for cleaning fabric products.
[0061] like Figure 8 and 9 As shown, a suction pipe is installed inside the sewage tank 9. The suction pipe includes a sewage suction pipe 17 and a sewage suction air pipe 18. The sewage suction pipe 17 has an inlet at the bottom and an outlet at the top. The sewage suction air pipe 18 has an inlet at the top and an outlet at the bottom. The inlet at the top of the sewage suction air pipe 18 is at a higher level than the outlet at the top of the sewage suction pipe 17, forming a height difference.
[0062] The bottom inlet of the sewage suction pipe 17 is sealed and connected to the sewage interface 19, and the bottom outlet of the sewage suction air pipe 18 is sealed and connected to the air pipe interface 20.
[0063] The working principle of the fabric cleaning machine is as follows: the water pump 10 draws water through the boiler 11 and sprays it out through the outlet pipe 14 and brush head 16 to contact the fabric products. The fan 2 draws in the sewage after cleaning the fabric products. The sewage flows back from the hose 13 and enters the sewage tank 9 through the hose connector 12, sewage interface 19 and sewage suction pipe 17 in sequence. The sewage sinks to the bottom of the sewage tank 9 under the action of gravity. Air is introduced into the suction air pipe 18 and discharged after being reduced by the noise reduction structure of the fabric cleaning machine.
[0064] like Figure 2As shown, the base 103 has an air outlet 7 for airflow discharge, and the base 103 has at least three air outlets 7, which correspond to the first partition 406 and the second partition 407 of the heat dissipation port 405, respectively.
[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a control panel 23 for operating the fabric cleaning machine.
[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the base 103 is also equipped with wheels for moving the fabric cleaning machine. The wheels include casters 21 and pulleys 22, and there are two casters 21 and two pulleys 22. This ensures that the fabric cleaning machine has a turning function while reducing the number of casters 21 used, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.
[0067] Fabric cleaning machines also include at least a power cord for power supply.
[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, a rear seat 24 is also provided on the rear side of the main housing 1. The rear seat 24 is provided with a cord hook 25 and a brush head holder 26, which are used for storing the power cord and the handle 15, respectively.
[0069] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
