Description

Technical Field

[0002] Washing machines are household appliances used to clean clothes. Traditional washing machines typically have a capacity of 5 to 10 kg, which can wash a small family's clothes for a day at a time. Since their introduction to the market, washing machines have truly brought a lot of convenience to people's lives.

[0003] In recent years, with the continuous improvement of people's living conditions, more and more people have higher and higher requirements for their living standards and their lives have become more and more refined. For example, in the past, people would throw all their clothes into the washing machine at once, and the clothes accumulated throughout the day could be washed at once. However, now many people will sort their clothes when washing them, especially underwear and socks, which will be washed separately. In this case, traditional large-capacity washing machines are hard to use. Therefore, to meet the needs of these consumers, small-capacity, portable washing machines have emerged. Since these portable washing machines do not require high power, most of them can be connected to an external mains power supply using a low-voltage adapter. However, since washing machines work in a humid environment for a long time, using a corded adapter to provide power not only poses a safety hazard, but also requires a power outlet to work properly, making them very inconvenient to use and unsuitable for carrying when going out.
