Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing machine technology, specifically to a partitioned washing machine. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards continue to improve, people are demanding more from the details of daily life. For example, when washing clothes, people sort them for washing, and the types of sorting are becoming increasingly diverse. To meet this demand, multi-zone washing machines have emerged on the market.

[0003] CN202310310329.7, "A Multi-Drum Washing Machine," discloses a structure including a first drum, a second drum, and an electric heating system. The electric heating system generates hot airflow, which can be simultaneously or separately delivered to the first drum and / or the second drum. The multi-drum washing machine also includes a first drum and a heat pump system, which generates hot airflow and delivers it to the first drum. This washing machine structure allows for the washing of different types of clothing through multiple drums, meeting users' needs for categorized washing.

[0004] However, for drum washing machines, multiple drums require the installation of counterweight structures and connection structures with the frame. The numerous components and difficult layout result in a complex assembly structure with the washing machine frame. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a partitioned washing machine that simplifies the overall structure and facilitates installation by integrating the connecting structure and the counterweight structure, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0007] A partitioned washing machine includes a large drum and a first and a second small drum installed in a frame. The first and second small drums are arranged side by side on the large drum. The machine also includes a connector disposed between the first and second small drums. A first side of the connector is locked to a side of the first small drum, and a second side of the connector is locked to a side of the second small drum. The middle part of the connector extends downward to form a counterweight for the first and second small drums.

[0008] By adopting the above structure and utilizing the gap between the first and second small drums, the connecting parts can be made into a counterweight structure. This not only eliminates the need for separate production and installation of the counterweight structure, but also makes the connecting parts themselves more stable and reliable. This simplifies the overall structure of the washing machine, facilitates installation, and further improves installation reliability.

[0009] Preferably, the connector has an inverted triangular structure. The upper first part of the connector is close to and locked to the outer wall of the upper part of the first small cylinder, the upper second part of the connector is close to and locked to the outer wall of the upper part of the second small cylinder, and the lower third part of the connector is located between the lower parts of the first and second small cylinders. This structure makes full use of the assembly space between the first and second small cylinders, improving the connection stability between the connector and the two small cylinders and the reliability of the counterweight.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the first portion forms a first arc-shaped structure that matches the outer wall of the first small cylinder, and the outer wall of the second portion forms a second arc-shaped structure that matches the outer wall of the second small cylinder. This structure ensures a tight connection between the connector and the two small cylinders, preventing vibration and improving stability.

[0011] To facilitate connection and assembly, the side wall of the first small cylinder is provided with a first extension arm that extends outward and is arranged close to the first part, and the first extension arm is locked to the first part by screws; the side wall of the second small cylinder is provided with a second extension arm that extends outward and is arranged close to the second part, and the second extension arm is locked to the second part by screws.

[0012] Preferably, a horizontally arranged first sheet metal part connects the first and second small cylinders, and both sides of the first sheet metal part are respectively locked to the first and second small cylinders by screws; a vertically arranged second sheet metal part connects the rear ends of the first and second small cylinders, and both sides of the second sheet metal part are respectively locked to the rear end faces of the first and second small cylinders by screws. This structure helps to further improve the assembly reliability of the first and second small cylinders.

[0013] Preferably, the rear side of the third portion forms a missing portion extending upward from its lower edge, and the upper end of this missing portion forms a stepped surface that can abut against the first sheet metal part. This structure provides support for the counterweight portion in the middle of the connector, and the force relationship between the two is beneficial to further improve assembly reliability and reduce vibration.

[0014] Preferably, a first elastic element is connected between the upper side of the first small cylinder and the inner top wall of the frame, and a second elastic element is connected between the upper side of the second small cylinder and the inner top wall of the frame, with both the first and second elastic elements located between the first and second small cylinders. A first shock absorber is connected between the bottom of the first small cylinder and the first inner side wall of the frame, and a second shock absorber is connected between the bottom of the second small cylinder and the second inner side wall of the frame. The first and second elastic elements can preferably be suspension springs, and the first and second shock absorbers can preferably be dampers; however, other structures that provide elastic buffering can also be used. This structure achieves independent vibration isolation for the small sections (first and second small cylinders), eliminating vibration interference between them and the main cylinder.

[0015] Preferably, a third elastic element is connected between the first side of the top of the large cylinder and the first inner wall of the frame, and a fourth elastic element is connected between the second side of the top of the large cylinder and the second inner wall of the frame; a third shock absorber is connected between the first side of the bottom of the large cylinder and the inner bottom wall of the frame, and a fourth shock absorber is connected between the second side of the bottom of the large cylinder and the inner bottom wall of the frame. The third and fourth elastic elements are preferably suspension springs, and the third and fourth shock absorbers are preferably dampers; however, other structures that provide elastic buffering can also be used. This structure achieves independent vibration isolation for the large section (large cylinder) and eliminates vibration interference between it and the smaller cylinders.

[0016] Preferably, anti-vibration interference gaps are reserved between the first and second small cylinders and the large cylinder, with a gap width of 20-25mm; the distance between the center of the large cylinder and the centers of the first and second small cylinders is 370-390mm. The height of the large cylinder above the ground is preferably 395mm; a gap of about 10mm is reserved between the first and second small cylinders and other structural components in the frame, and a gap of about 15mm is reserved between the large cylinder and other structural components in the frame, to allow for vibration gaps, eliminate interference, and reduce noise.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model connects the first small drum and the second small drum through a connector to improve stability. At the same time, by utilizing the gap between the first small drum and the second small drum, the connector is made into a counterweight structure. Not only is it not necessary to produce and install the counterweight structure separately, but the connector itself, as a counterweight, is more stable and reliable. Based on simplifying the overall structure of the washing machine, it is easier to install and further improves the reliability of installation. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the partition washing machine of this embodiment includes a large drum 3 and a first small drum 1 and a second small drum 2 installed in the frame 4. The first small drum 1 and the second small drum 2 are arranged side by side on the large drum 3. It also includes a connector 5 disposed between the first small drum 1 and the second small drum 2. The first side of the connector 5 is locked to the side of the first small drum 1, and the second side of the connector 5 is locked to the side of the second small drum 2. The middle part of the connector 5 extends downward to form a counterweight for the first small drum 1 and the second small drum 2.

[0026] By adopting the above structure, the connector 5 is made into a counterweight structure by utilizing the gap between the first small tube 1 and the second small tube 2. This not only eliminates the need for separate production and installation of the counterweight structure, but also makes the connector 5 itself more stable and reliable. This simplifies the overall structure of the washing machine, facilitates installation, and further improves installation reliability.

[0027] The connector 5 has an inverted triangular structure. The upper first part 51 of the connector 5 is close to and locked to the outer wall of the upper part of the first small cylinder 1. The upper second part 52 of the connector 5 is close to and locked to the outer wall of the upper part of the second small cylinder 2. The lower third part 53 of the connector 5 is located between the lower parts of the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2. This structure makes full use of the assembly space between the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2, improving the connection stability of the connector 5 with the two small cylinders and the reliability of the counterweight.

[0028] The outer wall of the first part 51 forms a first arc-shaped structure 511 that matches the outer wall of the first small cylinder 1, and the outer wall of the second part 52 forms a second arc-shaped structure 521 that matches the outer wall of the second small cylinder 2. This structure ensures a tight connection between the connector 5 and the two small cylinders, preventing vibration and improving stability.

[0029] To facilitate connection and assembly, the side wall of the first small cylinder 1 is provided with a first extension arm 11 that extends outward and is arranged close to the first part 51. The first extension arm 11 is locked to the first part 51 by screws. The side wall of the second small cylinder 2 is provided with a second extension arm 21 that extends outward and is arranged close to the second part 52. The second extension arm 21 is locked to the second part 52 by screws.

[0030] A horizontally arranged first sheet metal part 10 connects the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2. Both sides of the first sheet metal part 10 are respectively locked to the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2 with screws. A vertically arranged second sheet metal part 20 connects the rear ends of the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2. Both sides of the second sheet metal part 20 are respectively locked to the rear end faces of the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2 with screws. This structure helps to further improve the assembly reliability of the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2.

[0031] The rear side of the third part 53 forms a missing portion 531 extending upward from the lower edge, and the upper end of the missing portion 531 forms a stepped surface 532 that can abut against the first sheet metal part 10. This structure provides support for the counterweight portion in the middle of the connector 5, and the force relationship between the two is conducive to further improving assembly reliability and reducing vibration.

[0032] A first elastic element 01 is connected between the upper side of the first small cylinder 1 and the inner top wall of the frame 4, and a second elastic element 02 is connected between the upper side of the second small cylinder 2 and the inner top wall of the frame 4. Both the first elastic element 01 and the second elastic element 02 are located between the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2. A first shock absorber 001 is connected between the bottom of the first small cylinder 1 and the first inner side wall of the frame 4, and a second shock absorber 002 is connected between the bottom of the second small cylinder 2 and the second inner side wall of the frame 4. The first elastic element 01 and the second elastic element 02 can preferably be suspension springs, and the first shock absorber 001 and the second shock absorber 002 can preferably be gas springs. Of course, other structures that can provide elastic cushioning can also be used. By adopting the above structure, independent shock absorption of the small sections (first small cylinder 1 and second small cylinder 2) can be achieved, eliminating vibration interference between them and the large cylinder 3.

[0033] A third elastic element 03 connects the first side of the top of the large cylinder 3 to the first inner wall of the frame 4, and a fourth elastic element 04 connects the second side of the top of the large cylinder 3 to the second inner wall of the frame 4. A third shock absorber 003 connects the first side of the bottom of the large cylinder 3 to the inner bottom wall of the frame 4, and a fourth shock absorber 004 connects the second side of the bottom of the large cylinder 3 to the inner bottom wall of the frame 4. The third elastic element 03 and the fourth elastic element 04 are preferably suspension springs, and the third shock absorber 003 and the fourth shock absorber 004 are preferably gas springs. Of course, other structures that can provide elastic cushioning can also be used. This structure achieves independent vibration isolation for the large section (large cylinder 3) and eliminates vibration interference between it and the smaller cylinders.

[0034] Vibration-resistant interference gaps are reserved between the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2 and the large cylinder 3, with a gap width of 20-25mm. The distance between the center of the large cylinder 3 and the centers of the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2 is 370-390mm. The preferred height of the large cylinder 3 above the ground is 395mm. A gap of about 10mm is reserved between the first small cylinder 1 and the second small cylinder 2 and other structural components in the frame 4, and a gap of about 15mm is reserved between the large cylinder 3 and other structural components in the frame 4, to allow for vibration clearance, eliminate interference, and reduce noise.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first small drum 1 and the second small drum 2 are connected by the connector 5 to improve stability. At the same time, the connector 5 is made into a counterweight structure by taking advantage of the gap between the first small drum 1 and the second small drum 2. This not only eliminates the need for separate production and installation of the counterweight structure, but also makes the connector 5 itself more stable and reliable. Based on simplifying the overall structure of the washing machine, it is easier to install and further improves the reliability of installation.
