Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application relates to a garment processing device. [Background Technology]

[0002] Clothing handling devices, such as washing machines and washer-dryer combos, typically have an overflow outlet. This outlet is used to allow water to overflow when the water level is too high, to allow ventilation throughout the machine, and to serve as a primary outlet for foam when the customer adds too much detergent. Currently, the common practice is to have an opening on the outer surface of the detergent dispenser. This opening serves two purposes: it allows the detergent dispenser to be pulled out and it also acts as an overflow outlet.

[0003] However, with the improvement of people's living standards and the advancement of technology, more and more household appliances are entering thousands of households to assist and enrich people's lives. Consumers' requirements for household appliances are no longer limited to functionality, but also include aesthetically pleasing design. Due to the opening, the outer surface of the detergent dispenser has complex lines and exposes the internal structure, which is not only unattractive but also difficult to clean, affecting the overall appearance of the laundry detergent dispenser and the user experience.

[0004] Therefore, there is still a need for continued improvement. [Utility Model Content]

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0036] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial technical effects of this application clearer, the following will provide a more detailed description of this application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and several exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Various embodiments may share the same view or multiple views for description, but not all features appearing in the same view should be interpreted as features that an embodiment must possess. Instead, they can be combined in any suitable manner as long as they are not technically mutually exclusive. Moreover, for the sake of brevity, different embodiments of different aspects may be presented in the same specific design; however, such presentation does not mean that embodiments of these aspects should appear together. The disassembly and / or combination of all possible embodiments and / or technical features should also take into account the description in the specification and what a person skilled in the art can directly and unambiguously determine based on the description in the specification.

[0037] Before beginning the description, it should be noted that, for convenience, this document may use directional or orientational terms in relation to the conventional use of the drum washing machine. Those skilled in the art will understand this from the description and will not be confused. In this context, these directional and orientational terms should not be simply interpreted as orientation or direction in any given state.

[0038] Figure 1 The garment handling device 100 is shown. Figure 1 The garment handling device 100 illustrated herein may be, for example, a washing machine or a washer-dryer combo. The garment handling device 100 includes a housing 10 having an outer housing 11. A tub 20 defining a garment handling chamber S is arranged within the housing 10. The housing 10 substantially includes a front wall 101, side walls 102, and a top plate 103. In this embodiment, the tub 20 is arranged laterally, substantially considering the outer housing 11 of the front wall 101 of the garment handling device 100. Hereinafter, “outer housing” refers to the side closer to the user, i.e., the side away from the tub 20; correspondingly, “inner housing” refers to the side closer to the interior of the garment handling device 100, i.e., the side closer to the tub 20.

[0039] At least one door opening S1 is formed on the housing 10, through which the clothing processing chamber S of the tub 20 can be accessed. The door opening S1 can be closed by a door unit 30. The housing 10 includes a door opening portion 12 disposed around the door opening S1, and the door unit 30 is mounted on the door opening portion 12, such as being substantially anti-torsively connected to the door opening portion 12 or rotatably fastened to the door opening portion 12. In the closed state where the door unit 30 closes the door opening S1, a gap communicating with the outside of the housing is formed between the door opening portion 12 and the door unit 30 to provide for the installation and rotation of the door unit 30. In this embodiment, the door opening S1 is constructed in the front wall 101 of the housing 10, and the door opening portion 12 is formed by a recess 121 on the front wall 101, such that the door unit 30 and the connection structure between the door unit 30 and the door opening portion 12 can be at least partially accommodated in the recess 121 on the front wall 101, and a gap communicating with the outside of the housing 11 is formed between the recess 121 and the door unit 30.

[0040] Furthermore, the garment handling device 100 also includes a pull-out box 40 that slidably enters and exits the housing 10 along the pull-out direction D, and the pull-out box 40 is slidably supported within a pull-out box seat 50 disposed within the housing 10. The pull-out box seat 50 includes a connecting portion 51 that communicates with the container 20. Figure 1 A pull-out box 40 and a pull-out box base 50 are schematically shown above the front wall 101. As an example, the pull-out box 40 is a detergent container containing various liquid and / or gel and / or powdered chemical agents for clothing care; combined with... Figure 3 As shown, the connecting part 51 is a water guiding part located below the detergent container (pull-out box body 40), and the water guiding part is connected to the bucket 20. The pull-out box body base 50 also includes a water distribution part 52 located above the detergent container (pull-out box body 40). Water enters the water distribution part 52 from the fresh water inlet pipe (not shown in the figure), then flows into the detergent container, then into the water guiding part, and then into the bucket 20.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the garment handling device 100 also includes a communication channel 60 connecting the interior of the pull-out box 50 to the exterior of the housing 11. This communication channel 60 is configured to allow the introduction or removal of fluids, water, detergent, foam, or air. In the event of overflow from the tub 20 or the pull-out box 40, water, detergent, foam, etc., can flow out to the outside of the garment handling device 100 through the communication channel 60. When a negative pressure is created inside the tub 20, such as during high-speed spin-drying, outside air flows into the negative pressure area inside the tub 20 through the communication channel 60. When the pressure inside the tub 20 is high, such as during water intake or drying, the airflow inside the tub 20 can be discharged through the communication channel 60. When the pull-out box 40 is a detergent container, the communication channel 60 can also introduce air when there is a pressure deficit in the fresh water inlet pipe.

[0042] Figures 3-6 The construction and installation location of the connecting channel 60 are specifically shown. Combined with... Figure 3 As shown, the connecting channel 60 is at least partially disposed on the housing 10 and connected to the outer side 11 of the housing, which can avoid forming an opening on the outside of the pull-out box 40. While satisfying the overflow and ventilation functions, it provides the possibility of optimizing the appearance aesthetics and user experience of the pull-out box.

[0043] The connecting channel 60 includes a pipe 63, which is separate from the housing 10 and installed on the housing 10. The pipe 63 itself requires a circumferentially closed flow channel design, and its separate design from the housing 10 will not affect the design or molding complexity of the housing 10 itself.

[0044] The connecting channel 60 also includes a first flow port 61 and a second flow port 62 disposed on the housing 10 and connected by a pipe 63. The first flow port 61 communicates with the internal space of the pull-out box base 50, and the second flow port 62 communicates with the outer side 11 of the housing. Specifically, the first flow port 61 and the second flow port 62 are disposed on the inwardly bent portion 13 of the housing 10, and the pipe 63 is disposed on the inner side of the housing 10, without affecting the outer side of the housing 10, thus enhancing its versatility.

[0045] In this embodiment, the pipe 63 extends through the first guide port 61 and the second guide port 62. Therefore, the fluid flows inside the pipe 63 without passing through the first guide port 61 and the second guide port 62, eliminating the need for a sealing structure between the housing 10 and the pipe 63. In other embodiments, the pipe 63 may not extend through the first guide port 61 and the second guide port 62, but may be positioned between the first guide port 61 and the second guide port 62.

[0046] like Figure 4As shown, a flange 631 is formed at one end of the first flow guide 61, and the pipe 63 is installed at the first flow guide 61 through the flange 631. As an example, an elastic buckle 632 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the pipe 63. The first flow guide 61 has a mounting hole 611 at a position corresponding to the elastic buckle 632, and the first flow guide 61 and the mounting hole 611 are interconnected. When the pipe 63 is inserted from the first flow guide 61, the elastic buckle 632 extends into the mounting hole 611 and clamps the bent portion 13 between the flange 631 and the elastic buckle 632, thereby fixing the pipe 63. In other embodiments, the elastic buckle 632 may also be provided on the flange 631; the first flow guide 61 and the mounting hole 611 may also be independent of each other; the pipe 63 may also be installed in other ways. A positioning rib 633 may also be provided on the outer periphery of the pipe 63 for positioning the pipe 63 at the first flow guide 61.

[0047] In this embodiment, the pull-out box 40 is disposed above the front wall 101, and the first guide port 61 and the second guide port 62 are disposed on the front wall 101. The first guide port 61 is positioned adjacent to the bottom of the pull-out box seat 50, thereby having a lower overflow surface; at the same time, the first guide port 61 is located above the second guide port 62 in the direction of gravity, so that overflowing water, washing liquid, foam, etc. can flow to the outer side 11 of the shell under the action of gravity. Specifically, the first guide port 61 is disposed on the upper flange 131 (i.e., the bent portion 13 mentioned above) of the front wall 101.

[0048] In this embodiment, the second flow guide 62 communicates with the gap between the door opening 12 and the door unit 30. The second flow guide 62 is located on the door opening 12 at the position where the gap is formed. The gap allows the second flow guide to be hidden, making it more aesthetically pleasing. Specifically, the recess 121 includes a folded edge 132 (i.e., the folded portion 13 mentioned above) that bends inward from the front wall 101 and extends at an angle to the wall surface of the front wall 101. The second flow guide 62 is located on the folded edge 132.

[0049] The second guide port 62 and the first guide port 61 are located on the same side of the vertical plane containing the central axis X of the tub 20, and the second guide port 62 is located above the door opening 12. The pipe 63 can have a small extension length, occupy less space, and will not cause interference. As an example, the pull-out box 40 and the handle area 31 on the door unit 30 are located on different sides of the vertical plane containing the central axis of the tub. Therefore, the second guide port 62 is located on the opposite side of the handle area 31 on the door unit 30, so that the handle area will not be soiled when overflowing. As an example, the pull-out box 40 is located at the upper left corner of the clothing handling device 100, the first guide port 61 is located on the upper flange 131 corresponding to the position of the pull-out box 40, and the second guide port 62 is located on the upper left side of the folded edge 132 of the recess 121.

[0050] In addition to the pull-out drawer 40, the garment handling device 100 also includes a control panel 70, which can be arranged adjacent to the pull-out drawer 40, such as being arranged together above the front wall 101. In other embodiments, the pull-out drawer 40 and / or the control panel 70 can also be arranged in other areas of the front wall 101 of the garment handling device 100 as needed; the control panel 70 can be provided with a control section, a display section, etc., and the control section can be touch control or mechanical control, such as a knob or button.

[0051] The pull-out box base 50 and control panel 70 are mounted on the mounting base 14, which is fixedly connected to the housing 10, for example, by screws. Figure 5 As shown, the mounting base 14 has a pull-out box opening S2 and a panel display area opening S3. In this embodiment, the mounting base 14 is integral, meaning the pull-out box opening S2 and the panel display area opening S3 are formed in different areas of the mounting base 14. For example, the pull-out box opening S2 and the panel display area opening S3 are arranged side-by-side on the left and right sides of the mounting base 14. In other embodiments, the mounting base 14 may also include two independent parts with the pull-out box opening S2 and the panel display area opening S3 respectively formed; the control panel 70 may also be installed in other ways. The pull-out box 40 enters the pull-out box base 50 through the pull-out box opening S2.

[0052] The connecting channel 60 also includes a third flow port 64 on the mounting base 14, corresponding to the position of the first flow port 61, which connects the second flow port 61 to the pull-out box base 50. Figure 6 As shown, in a plane perpendicular to the direction of gravity, the cross-section of the inner circumference of the third guide port 64 is smaller than the cross-section of the inner circumference of the pipe 63 at one end of the first guide port 61, ensuring that water in the bucket 20 will not overflow between the mounting base 14 and the housing 10. In one embodiment, in the direction of gravity, the third guide port 64 extends into one end of the pipe 63 at the first guide port 61, further ensuring that water overflowing from the bucket 20 into the pull-out box seat 50 enters the pipe 63 through the third guide port 64, thereby being discharged between the door unit 30 and the door opening 12 on the housing 10.

[0053] A partition plate 641 / 634 can be provided within the third flow port 64 and / or the pipe 63 to improve strength and prevent deformation, which is particularly advantageous when the mounting base 14 and the pipe 63 are made of plastic. In this embodiment, since the flange 631 provided at one end of the pipe 63 can also increase strength, the partition plate 634 is only provided at the other end of the pipe 63 opposite to the flange 631.

[0054] like Figure 1As shown, the pull-out box 40 has an exemplary box body 40a and a handle assembly 40b. The box body 40a is configured to receive, for example, detergent. The handle assembly 40b is mounted on the box body 40a, and a person holds the handle assembly 40b to pull out the box body 40a. The outer side of the handle assembly 40b constitutes the entire outer side of the pull-out box 40. Here and below, the handle assembly 40b or the outer side of the pull-out box 40 refers to the state in which the pull-out box 40 is fully contained within the pull-out box base 50 and is in the closed position.

[0055] When there is no need to form an opening on the outside of the pull-out box 40 due to the need for overflow or ventilation, the pull-out box 40 without an opening on the outside can be obtained by setting the handle assembly 40b, while meeting the pull-out requirements of the pull-out box. For example, the handle assembly 40b is set such that when the handle assembly 40b is not subjected to external force, there is no gripping part on the outside of the handle assembly 40b; when the outside of the handle assembly 40b is pressed, the gripping part (not shown in the figure) of the handle assembly 40b appears, thereby pulling the pull-out box 40 out of the shell 10 through the gripping part.

[0056] The entire outer side of the handle assembly 40b can also be designed without dividing lines, such as the outermost part of the handle assembly 40b being a single integral piece, thereby achieving a unified, simple, beautiful, and easy-to-clean appearance of the pull-out box. In one embodiment, the handle assembly 40b can be configured as a press-open type, that is, pressing the outer side of the handle assembly 40b unlocks the grip and the outer side of the handle assembly 40b together and pops outward. When it is necessary to close, pressing the outer side of the handle assembly 40b again closes the grip and the outer side of the handle assembly 40b together into the locked position.

[0057] The outer side of the handle assembly 40b can also be flush with the outer side of the housing 11 and / or the outer side of the control panel 70 of the garment handling device 100 adjacent to the handle assembly 40b. This creates a visually coherent front surface of the garment handling device 100 in which essentially only the door unit 30 protrudes from the outer side of the housing 11. Preferably, when the outer side of the handle assembly 40b is substantially flat, and the outer side of the housing 11 and / or the outer side of the control panel 70 is also substantially flat, the garment handling device 100 thus has a flat design.

[0058] The outer side of the handle assembly 40b may also have similar and / or the same and / or consistent characteristics (or composition) with the outer side of the housing 11 (especially the front wall 101) and / or the outer side of the control panel 70, including but not limited to color composition, material composition, etc. Thus, the outer side of the garment handling device 100 has a consistent visual effect.

[0059] Although specific embodiments have been described above, these embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of this application, even when only a single embodiment is described with respect to a particular feature. The feature examples provided in this application are intended for illustrative purposes and not for limitation, unless explicitly stated otherwise. In specific implementations, multiple features may be combined with each other where technically feasible and according to actual needs. Any modifications made to this application by those skilled in the art within the scope of its basic technical concept are within the protection scope of this application.
