Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of clothing processing equipment, and specifically provides a clothing processing device. Background Technology

[0002] In real life, the clothes we wear come into contact with the outside world and accumulate a lot of bacteria. These bacteria are difficult to see with the naked eye. If people are infected by bacteria, it will reduce their immunity and resistance, affecting their health and increasing the risk of illness. Furthermore, the secretion of human sweat or the long-term storage of clothing can easily cause clothes to develop odors, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0003] While existing garment processing equipment can sterilize and deodorize clothing by applying high temperatures, its effectiveness is limited. Furthermore, due to the different materials used in clothing, high-temperature treatment may damage heat-sensitive materials, thus damaging the garments.

[0004] In summary, existing garment processing equipment, which uses high-temperature treatment technology to sterilize and deodorize garments, is ineffective and can easily damage them.

[0005] Accordingly, there is a need in the field for a new garment processing device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the light source device is configured to illuminate the clothing receiving cavity with light.

[0017] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the clothing processing equipment is a washing machine, and the washing machine further includes a clothing processing tub, a door, and a seal.

[0032] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments as needed to adapt to specific application scenarios.

[0033] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," indicating directional or positional relationships, are based on the directional or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These are merely for ease of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," and "fourth" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection or a detachable connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] First refer to Figure 1 The first preferred embodiment of the clothing processing device of this utility model includes: a box 1, a clothing processing bucket 2, and a door 3. The clothing processing bucket 2 is disposed inside the box 1, and the door 3 is configured to control the opening and closing state of the bucket opening of the clothing processing bucket 2. The clothing processing bucket 2 includes an outer bucket 21 and an inner cylinder 22. The inner cylinder is disposed inside the outer bucket 21, and a clothing receiving cavity is formed inside the inner cylinder 22. The inner cylinder 22 is provided with multiple holes (not shown in the figure). The clothing receiving cavity is used to place clothing. The clothing processing device also includes a light source device 4 and an active oxygen generator 5. The active oxygen generator 5 is used to generate and provide active oxygen, and the light source device 4 is capable of emitting full light. Under the full spectrum of sunlight, active oxygen (O3) in the air can generate hydroxyl radicals (·OH). These hydroxyl radicals can thoroughly sterilize and deodorize the clothes in the clothing compartment, and also give the clothes a slight sunshine smell. An air outlet 211 is provided on the outer tub 21, which is connected to the clothing compartment. A filter device 9 is installed in the air outlet 211, which can decompose the active oxygen in the air discharged from the clothing compartment. This invention can not only sterilize and deodorize the clothes, but also decompose the discharged active oxygen, prevent active oxygen leakage, and thus prevent discomfort to the human body.

[0036] Preferably, the wavelength range of the full-spectrum lamp band of the light source device 4 is 300nm-1000nm, with a color rendering index Ra greater than 80. Further, the wavelength range of the full-spectrum lamp band of the light source device 4 is 350-780 nm, with a color rendering index Ra greater than 90. Even further, the wavelength range of the full-spectrum lamp band of the light source device 4 is 350nm-780 nm, with a color rendering index Ra greater than 97. The 350nm-780nm wavelength band covers the range of visible light, from ultraviolet (350nm) to infrared (780nm), and simultaneously covers ultraviolet, infrared, and visible light, which can both sterilize and deodorize, and also slightly heat the clothes to enhance the effect of sunshine smell.

[0037] The Color Rendering Index (CRI) is a metric used to evaluate a light source's ability to reproduce the colors of objects. Ra is one common CRI, representing a light source's ability to reproduce a set of standard colors, ranging from 0 to 100. A higher Ra value indicates better color reproduction by the light source. A CRI greater than 80 means the light source has a CRI above 80. This is generally considered a relatively good color rendering performance, helping to ensure that the colors of objects can be accurately identified under lighting conditions.

[0038] In this invention, the wavelength range of the full-spectrum lamp band of the light source device 4 is preferably 350nm-780nm, with a color rendering index Ra greater than 97, so as to most closely simulate sunlight irradiation of clothing, improve the sterilization and deodorization effect of clothing, and enhance the sunshine smell of clothing.

[0039] In another preferred embodiment of the garment processing apparatus, the full-spectrum lamp band of the light source device 4 includes visible light and UVC ultraviolet light, and the UVC ultraviolet light will not cause aging of the garment and the components of the garment processing apparatus.

[0040] The light intensity of the light source device 4 during operation is controlled within a preset range to avoid damage to clothing caused by excessive light intensity. The preset range of light intensity can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual conditions, such as the light intensity of sunlight shining on the ground at noon at a certain temperature.

[0041] Furthermore, in this preferred embodiment, the filtration device 9 includes a filter body made of manganese dioxide nanoparticles. The filter body covers the air outlet and has a block structure that matches the air outlet 211. It is provided with multiple filter holes. When air passes through the filter body at the air outlet 211, since the filter body is an oxide nanocatalytic material based on manganese dioxide nanoparticles, it can decompose trace amounts of active oxygen. First, an ozone molecule is adsorbed onto the active site on the catalyst surface of the filter body and decomposes to form a gaseous oxygen molecule and an atomic oxygen substance. The adsorbed atomic oxygen reacts with another gaseous ozone molecule to form an adsorbed peroxide and a gaseous oxygen molecule. Finally, the adsorbed peroxide intermediate decomposes to form a gaseous oxygen molecule that detaches from the catalyst surface, decomposing the active oxygen and preventing active oxygen leakage.

[0042] It should be noted that this utility model does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure of the filter device 9 and the filter body. The filter device 9 may also include a housing and a filter body disposed within the housing. The housing can serve to include the filter body and is detachably disposed at the air outlet 211 for easy disassembly and assembly. The filter body may also be an integrally formed honeycomb block, plate, membrane, or granules. The filter device 9 may also be a honeycomb block, plate, membrane, or granules made of activated carbon. Those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation.

[0043] In another preferred embodiment, the outer tub 21 is connected to an air outlet duct, and an air outlet 211 is formed at the end of the air outlet duct. The filter device 9 is disposed in the air outlet 211 or at the connection between the air outlet duct and the outer tub 21.

[0044] It should be noted that this utility model does not impose any restrictions on the type of clothing processing equipment. The clothing processing tub 2 of the clothing processing equipment may only include an outer tub 21 for holding water. A pulsator (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the outer tub 21. The sealing element 8 may not be provided between the door 3 and the outer tub 21. Those skilled in the art can set it according to the type of clothing processing equipment. It may be a drum-type clothing processing equipment, a pulsator-type clothing processing equipment, or a washer-dryer combo.

[0045] Continue reading Figure 1 In this preferred embodiment, the garment processing device further includes an air inlet duct 6 and a fan 7. The air inlet duct 6 is connected to the garment receiving cavity, and the fan 7 is configured to drive air from outside the garment receiving cavity into the garment receiving cavity through the air inlet duct 6. Specifically, one end of the air inlet duct 6 is connected to the garment receiving cavity through the outer tub 21, and the other end of the air inlet duct 6 is provided with an air inlet that is connected to the outside of the garment receiving cavity. The fan 7 is located near the air inlet. When the fan 7 is started, air enters the air inlet duct 6 through the air inlet, then enters the garment receiving cavity through the air inlet duct 6, and finally exits through the air outlet 211.

[0046] The air inlet duct 6 includes a first air duct 61 and a second air duct 62 connected in sequence. The lower end of the first air duct 61 is connected to the upper end of the right side of the outer tub 21, and the left end of the second air duct 62 is provided with an air inlet that communicates with the outside of the clothing storage cavity. Of course, this is only a preferred arrangement. In another preferred embodiment, a sealing member 8 is provided between the outer tub 21 and the door 3. The sealing member 8 is used to seal the gap between the outer tub 21 and the door 3. The sealing member 8 is provided with a connecting hole, and the first air duct 61 is connected to the clothing storage cavity through the connecting hole. Alternatively, the first air duct 61 can extend into the connecting hole to communicate with the clothing storage cavity. Regarding the connection method between the air inlet duct 6 and the clothing storage cavity, those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation, as long as a circulation path can be achieved.

[0047] Furthermore, the diameter of the first air duct 61 is smaller than that of the second air duct 62. Based on this, when the fan 7 drives air to flow from the second air duct 62 into the first air duct 61, the air velocity increases due to the narrower pipe diameter and smaller cross-section. This allows active oxygen or hydroxyl radicals to come into contact with the clothes at a faster speed when they enter the clothing compartment through the first air duct 61, preventing them from accumulating above the clothing compartment. In addition, the air outlet 211 is connected to the upper left end of the outer tub 21. When the airflow is flowing, the airflow can reach the bottom of the clothing compartment and then enter the air outlet 211 from the bottom of the clothing compartment.

[0048] In addition, the door 3 of the garment processing equipment of this utility model is also provided with a guide surface 31, which is inclined from top to bottom toward the direction of the garment receiving cavity, thereby promoting the flow of air.

[0049] In another preferred embodiment, the clothing processing device of this utility model may not include the fan 7 and the air inlet 6. An axial fan blade (not shown in the figure) is provided at the left end of the inner tube 22, and an air inlet is provided on the door 3 or the outer tube 21. The inner tube 22 is driven by a motor, and when the motor rotates, the axial fan blade drives the air to flow.

[0050] In another preferred embodiment, a control valve is provided at both the air inlet and the air outlet 211, and the control valve can control the opening and closing state of the air inlet and the air outlet 211.

[0051] Preferably, the air inlet duct 6 and the clothing storage cavity together form a reaction chamber. Within the reaction chamber, an active oxygen generator 5 and a light source device 4 are sequentially arranged according to the airflow direction. Specifically, the active oxygen generator 5 is located upstream of the light source device 4 in the airflow direction. Considering that the air inlet duct 6 may have bends, if the light source device 4 is in front and the active oxygen generator 5 is behind, separated by two sides of the bend, the light source device 4 may not reach the active oxygen generated by the active oxygen generator 5. By sequentially arranging the active oxygen generator 5 and the light source device 4 according to the airflow direction, this problem is avoided regardless of whether the air inlet duct has bends.

[0052] Continue reading Figure 1 Both the active oxygen generator 5 and the light source device 4 are located inside the air inlet duct 6. The air inlet duct 6, the outer tub 21, and the inner tub 22 are all made of transparent material so that the light source device 4 can transmit full-spectrum sunlight through the air inlet duct 6, the outer tub 21, and the inner tub 22 to irradiate the clothing storage cavity. Since the active oxygen generated by the active oxygen generator 5 may exist in various places in the air inlet duct 6 and the clothing storage cavity, making the air inlet duct 6, the outer tub 21, and the inner tub 22 all made of transparent material can irradiate the active oxygen present in the inner tub 22, improve the decomposition rate of active oxygen, and thus generate more hydroxyl free radicals, promoting the sterilization and deodorization effect. In addition, the full-spectrum sunlight can directly irradiate the clothes, promoting the sunshine smell effect of the clothes.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the difference between the second preferred embodiment of the clothing processing device of this utility model and the first preferred embodiment is that the light source device 4 is disposed on the sealing member 8, and the rest of the settings are the same, which will not be described in detail here.

[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, the difference between the third preferred embodiment of the clothing processing device of this utility model and the first preferred embodiment is that the light source device 4 is set on the inner wall of the outer tub 21, and the rest of the settings are the same, which will not be described again here.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, the difference between the fourth preferred embodiment of the clothing processing device of this utility model and the first preferred embodiment is that the light source device 4 is disposed on the door 3. All other settings are the same and will not be described again here.

[0056] In the second to fourth preferred embodiments, the light irradiation direction of the light source device 4 is all towards the clothing storage cavity. In this case, even if the air inlet duct 6, outer tub 21 and inner tub 22 are not made of transparent material, it can still promote the sunshine smell effect and the sterilization and deodorization effect of the clothing. As long as the light source device 4 is set to be able to irradiate the light into the clothing storage cavity, those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation.

[0057] Furthermore, the active oxygen generator 5 of this utility model includes an active oxygen generating component 51 and a driving power supply 52 connected together. The driving power supply 52 is a high-voltage driving power supply, a high-voltage power board, or a high-voltage coil driving device. The active oxygen generating component 51 is an active oxygen generating plate or an active oxygen generating needle. When the driving power supply 52 is energized, active oxygen can be generated at the active oxygen generating component 51, that is, oxygen is converted into O3. In this utility model, the driving power supply 52 is located outside the air inlet duct 6, and the active oxygen generating component 51 is located inside the air inlet duct 6. The two are electrically connected by wires. Of course, this is only a preferred arrangement. Alternatively, the active oxygen generator 5 can be located entirely outside the air inlet duct 6. In this case, a connecting hole is opened on the air inlet duct 6, and the active oxygen generator 5 provides active oxygen to the air inlet duct through the connecting hole. The active oxygen generator 5 is sealed to the connecting hole. Alternatively, the active oxygen generator 5 can be located entirely inside the air inlet duct 6. Those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation.

[0058] Those skilled in the art will understand that in other types of clothing processing equipment, the light source device 4 can also be installed inside the clothing receiving cavity or on the inner wall of the housing 1, as long as the light source device 4 is configured to illuminate the clothing receiving cavity. Those skilled in the art can set it according to the actual situation.

[0059] In an embodiment where the light source device 4 is located within the second air duct 62, a reflector can be installed within the first air duct 61 to reflect full-spectrum sunlight into the clothing storage cavity.

[0060] Furthermore, the garment processing equipment also includes a heating device (not shown in the figure), which is configured to heat and decompose the active oxygen generated by the active oxygen generator. When both the active oxygen generator 5 and the light source device 4 are working, activating the heating device can promote the decomposition of active oxygen. When neither the active oxygen generator 5 nor the light source device 4 are working, activating the heating device can decompose the remaining active oxygen, preventing active oxygen from leaking to the outside of the garment processing equipment and thus avoiding harm to the human body.

[0061] Those skilled in the art will understand that the active oxygen generating device 5 can be the device described in this utility model, or other existing devices capable of generating active oxygen, such as an ozone generator. Changes to the structure of the active oxygen generating device 5 do not deviate from the basic principles of this utility model and will fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0062] It should be noted that this utility model does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure of the light source device 4. The light source device 4 can be an LED lamp that can emit full-spectrum sunlight, or it can be a specific fluorescent tube, metal halide lamp or mercury vapor lamp, or it can be an illumination device that includes ultraviolet lamp beads, visible light lamp beads and infrared lamp beads. The light source device 4 can also include a lamp that can emit full-spectrum sunlight and a moving component that drives the lamp to rotate or move, so that the lamp can be adjusted and illuminated more comprehensively.

[0063] In another preferred embodiment, the garment processing apparatus further includes an oxygen storage tank for supplying oxygen to the garment processing apparatus, thereby facilitating the production of living oxygen.

[0064] After the active oxygen generator 5 and the light source device 4 are activated, the spectrum of the light source device 4 closely resembles that of sunlight, especially in the visible light portion where the proportions of each wavelength are similar to those of sunlight. This generates a photochemical reaction with the clothing fabric, similar to sunlight, catalyzing the oxidation of the clothing by active oxygen and hydroxyl radicals. This process can quickly achieve the same scent as clothes dried at high temperatures for extended periods. The treated clothing can produce at least one natural substance from the following sources: decanal, nonanal, octanal, and hexanal. The resulting fragrance combinations include: sweet, citrus, waxy, and floral scents; waxy, citrus, fatty, and floral scents; sweet orange, slightly oily, and honey-like aromas; and oily, grassy, ​​and apple scents, thus achieving the same sun-dried scent as clothes and blankets, ultimately bringing pleasure to the user.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the clothing treatment device is a washing machine. During use, the clothes are first washed using the washing machine's washing program. After washing, the water in the outer tub 21 is drained using the washing machine's drain device. After spin-drying, the user can activate the "sunshine scent care mode," turn on the light source device 4 and the active oxygen generator 5, and start the fan 7. The full-spectrum sunlight emitted by the light source device 4 illuminates the clothes, producing a sunshine scent. The active oxygen generator 5 provides active oxygen to the clothing treatment tub 2. Under the illumination of the full-spectrum light, some of the active oxygen is quickly converted into hydroxyl radicals. The oxidizing power of hydroxyl radicals is 1.4 times that of active oxygen, resulting in better odor removal. Furthermore, the oxygen decomposition of clothes by active oxygen and hydroxyl radicals enhances the sunshine scent of the clothes. The filter device 9 filters the active oxygen in the exhaust air to prevent leakage and potential discomfort.

[0066] It should be noted that although this utility model is only illustrated using a washing machine as an example, it is not restrictive. The clothing processing equipment can also be a dryer, a washer-dryer combo, a clothing storage cabinet, a shoe washing and care device, or a clothing care machine, as long as it includes a clothing receiving cavity, an air outlet 211, an active oxygen generator 5, a light source device 4, and a filter device 9; the air outlet 211 is connected to the clothing receiving cavity; the active oxygen generator 5 is configured to provide active oxygen to the clothing receiving cavity; the light source device 4 is configured to irradiate the active oxygen generated by the active oxygen generator 5; and the filter device 9 is located in the air outlet 211 and can filter and decompose the active oxygen in the air discharged from the clothing receiving cavity. In other preferred embodiments, the only difference from the washing machine, apart from the common knowledge differences in the prior art, is the different components forming the clothing receiving cavity. The other configurations are the same. For example, the configuration and specific structure of the air inlet duct 6, the active oxygen generator 5, the light source device 4, and the filter device 9 will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can set them according to the actual situation.

[0067] The technical solution of this utility model has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the protection scope of this utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
