The device is inserted into the mounting slot; a mounting cover is movably disposed at the opening of the mounting slot for sealing or opening the mounting slot; a water receiving box is installed on the side wall of the mounting cover facing the mounting slot; the water receiving box has a water storage cavity inside, and a water inlet is opened on the side wall of the water receiving box, which is connected to the water storage cavity; when the mounting cover opens the mounting slot, the water receiving box is located outside the housing, with the water inlet facing upwards, and the second end of the residual water drain pipe can extend into the water storage cavity through the water inlet; when the mounting cover closes the mounting slot, the water receiving box is housed within the mounting slot.
[0008] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: When the filter device needs to be cleaned, the residual water in the filter chamber can sequentially enter the water storage chamber through the first end of the residual water drain pipe, the second end of the residual water drain pipe, and the water inlet, thereby allowing the water receiving box to receive the residual water in the filter device. This prevents the residual water in the filter chamber from overflowing onto the ground during drainage, thus avoiding water accumulation and contamination of the floor. When the mounting cover closes the mounting groove, the water receiving box is housed within the mounting groove. Therefore, utilizing the mounting groove to accommodate the water receiving box improves the utilization rate of the space within the mounting groove and enhances the compactness of the overall casing structure.
[0009] In some embodiments, one edge of the mounting cover is hinged to the housing, and the mounting cover is rotatable relative to the housing.
[0010] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: when it is necessary to open the mounting slot, the end of the mounting cover away from the hinge can rotate around the hinge, thereby opening the mounting slot and improving the convenience of operating the mounting cover.

[0012] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: when the mounting cover is opened in the mounting groove, the residual water in the filter chamber can be discharged into the water receiving box along the residual water drain pipe, thereby realizing the discharge of residual water in the filter chamber and preventing residual water from being discharged onto the ground, thus preventing water accumulation and pollution on the ground.
[0013] In some embodiments, the water collection box is detachably mounted on the mounting cover.
[0014] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: after the mounting cover is opened and the mounting groove is opened, the water receiving box can be removed from the mounting cover, thereby enabling the treatment of the water receiving box and the water inside the water receiving box, thus improving the operability of the water receiving box.
[0015] In some embodiments, the mounting cover has a sliding groove on its side wall facing the mounting groove, and the sliding groove is elongated; the water receiving box has a slider on its side wall facing the mounting cover; the slider is slidably disposed in the sliding groove; one end of the sliding groove in the length direction has a disassembly port, and the slider can slide out of the sliding groove from the disassembly port.
[0016] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: After the mounting cover is opened, the second end of the drain pipe can connect to the inside of the water receiving box. Water in the filter chamber can enter the water receiving box along the drain pipe. When the water in the filter chamber is drained or the water receiving box is full, the water receiving box can slide out of the slid through the disassembly port, allowing the water in the water receiving box to be poured out. After emptying the water, the water receiving box can slide back into the slid through the disassembly port, thus enabling the water receiving box to collect water multiple times. Furthermore, after removing the mounting cover and emptying the water, the water in the water receiving box can be poured to other places according to the user's needs, rather than being limited to draining water only around the clothing processing equipment. In addition, after the mounting cover is opened and the water receiving box slides out of the slid through the disassembly port, the water receiving box can be repaired or replaced, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the water receiving box and reducing the cost of the clothing processing equipment.
[0017] In some embodiments, a stop is provided on the side wall of the mounting cover near the water receiving box, and the stop is rotatably disposed on one side of the disassembly port; when the mounting cover opens the mounting groove, the stop can rotate to the disassembly port and abut against the side of the water receiving box away from the mounting groove.
[0018] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: the block can prevent the water receiving box from sliding out of the disassembly port, thereby improving the stability of the water receiving box on the mounting cover.
[0019] In some embodiments, the stop block is provided with a first magnetic element, and the side wall of the water receiving box near the disassembly port is provided with a second magnetic element; when the stop block abuts against the side wall of the water receiving box, the first magnetic element can be magnetically attracted to the second magnetic element.
[0020] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects: the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component can make the stop block abut against the water receiving box, thereby preventing the stop block from rotating on its own, and thus improving the stability of the water receiving box installed on the mounting cover.

The pumping section 41 of the drain pump 4 is connected to the outlet section 32 of the filter device 3, and the draining section 42 of the drain pump 4 is connected to the outside of the housing 1. The washing water in the garment processing chamber 20 enters the filter chamber 30 through the drain outlet 23, connecting pipe 33, and inlet section 31 for filtration. The washing water in the filter chamber 30 can then enter the drain pump 4 through the outlet section 32 and be discharged outside the housing 1 through the draining section.
[0070] In some embodiments, the garment processing device may include a drain pipe 9. One end of the drain pipe 9 is connected to the drain section 42 of the drain pump 4. The other end of the drain pipe 9 is connected to the outside of the housing 1. Thus, the washing water in the garment processing chamber 20 enters the filter chamber 30 for filtration through the drain port 23, the connecting pipe 33, and the water inlet 31. The washing water in the filter chamber 30 can then enter the drain pump 4 through the water outlet 32 and be discharged to the outside of the housing 1 through the drain section 42.
[0071] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a mounting groove 13 may be provided on the front sidewall of the housing 1. A cleaning port 131 is provided on the sidewall of the mounting groove 13. The cleaning port 131 can communicate with the filter chamber 30. The filter element can be inserted into the filter chamber 30 through the mounting groove 13 and the cleaning port 131, and the filter element can be removed from the filter chamber 30 through the mounting groove 13 and the cleaning port 131, thereby facilitating the cleaning and replacement of the filter element.
[0072] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the mounting groove 13 may also be formed on the left and right side walls or other side walls of the housing 1.
[0073] Please participate Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment processing device further includes a first sealing plug 5. When the user does not need to clean the filter chamber within the filter device 3, the first sealing plug 5 can block the cleaning port 131, thereby ensuring normal filtration of the filter device 3 and preventing filtered water from being discharged into the mounting groove 13 through the cleaning port 131. When the user needs to clean the filter screen within the filter device 3, the first sealing plug 5 can open the cleaning port 131, at which point water intake in the filter device 3 stops, allowing the user to remove the filter element from the filter chamber 30 for cleaning through the cleaning port 131.
[0074] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment processing device may include a mounting cover 14. The mounting cover 14 is movably disposed at the opening of the mounting groove 13. The mounting cover 14 can be used to seal the mounting groove 13. The mounting cover 14 can also be used to open the mounting groove 13. When the mounting cover 14 opens the opening of the mounting groove 13, the user can remove the filter element from the filter chamber 30 through the cleaning port 131, thereby cleaning the filter element and improving the convenience of cleaning the filter device 3.
[0075] In some embodiments, the mounting cover 14 may be plate-shaped. One edge of the mounting cover 14 may be hinged to the housing 1. The mounting cover 14 is rotatable relative to the housing 1. Thus, when it is necessary to open the mounting slot 13, the end of the mounting cover 14 away from the hinge can rotate around the hinge, thereby opening the mounting slot 13 and improving the ease of operation of the mounting cover 14.
[0076] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the mounting cover 14 can also be fixed to the slot of the mounting groove 13 by plugging or other connection methods.
[0077] In some embodiments, when the mounting cover 14 is placed over the opening of the mounting groove 13, the outer surface of the mounting cover 14 is flush with the outer side wall of the housing 1, making the surface of the housing 1 flat and thus improving the overall appearance and aesthetics of the housing 1.
[0078] In some embodiments, the lower edge of the mounting cover 14 is hinged to the bottom edge of the mounting groove 13. Thus, when the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the upper end of the mounting plate can flip outwards from the housing, causing the mounting cover 14 to be horizontally positioned at the front of the mounting groove 13. When the mounting cover 14 closes the mounting groove 13, the upper end of the mounting plate can flip inwards from the housing, causing the mounting cover 14 to seal the opening of the mounting groove 13.
[0079] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment processing device includes a drain pipe 6. A first end of the drain pipe 6 is connected to the filter chamber 30. An extension inlet 134 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 13. A second end of the drain pipe 6 can extend into the mounting groove 13 through the extension inlet 134. Thus, residual water remaining in the filter chamber 30 can be discharged to the outside of the housing 1 through the drain pipe 6 from the mounting groove 13, thereby preventing residual water from flowing out through the cleaning port 131 and thus preventing residual water in the filter chamber 30 from directly flowing into the ground through the cleaning port 131.
[0080] In some embodiments, the drain pipe 6 can be a flexible hose. Therefore, the opening direction of the second end of the drain pipe 6 can be adjusted, allowing the user to easily adjust it according to actual conditions, so that the drain pipe 6 can adapt to different environments.
[0081] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the residual water drain pipe 6 can also be a rigid pipe, and its material is not limited here.
[0082] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, a buckle 132 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 13. A notch 133 is formed between the buckle 132 and the side wall of the mounting groove 13. The drain pipe 6 can extend into and engage with the notch 133, so that the drain pipe 6 can fit tightly against the side wall of the mounting groove 13. Thus, when the drain pipe 6 is not needed for drainage, it can be engaged with the notch 133, thereby reducing the space occupied by the drain pipe 6 in the mounting groove 13, improving the space utilization rate in the mounting groove 13, and preventing the drain pipe 6 from obstructing the closing of the mounting cover 14, making the structure in the mounting groove 13 more compact.
[0083] In some embodiments, the height of the latch 132 can be higher than the height at which the drain pipe 6 extends into the mounting groove 13. This ensures that when the drain pipe 6 is latched at the latch 133, the second end of the drain pipe 6 is higher than the first end, meaning the outlet of the drain pipe 6 is higher than its inlet. Therefore, when drainage is not required, the second end of the drain pipe 6 can be positioned upwards, allowing it to stop draining when the latch 132 is in place, thus preventing water in the filter chamber 30 from being discharged into the mounting groove 13 via the drain pipe 6 during drainage.
[0084] In some embodiments, when the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the water receiving box 8 can be located on the top surface of the mounting cover 14. The water receiving box 8 can be located on the outer side of the bottom of the mounting groove 13, and the first end and the second end of the residual water drain pipe 6 are located above the water receiving box 8. Thus, when the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the residual water in the filter chamber 30 can be drained into the water receiving box 8 along the residual water drain pipe 6, thereby realizing the discharge of residual water in the filter chamber 30 and preventing residual water from being discharged onto the ground, thus preventing water accumulation and contamination of the ground.
[0085] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment processing device may include a second sealing plug 7. The second sealing plug 7 may be located at the outlet of the second end of the drain pipe 6. When the user does not need to clean the filter chamber 30 in the filter device 3, the second sealing plug 7 can block the outlet of the second end of the drain pipe 6, thereby ensuring the normal filtration of the filter device 3 and preventing the filtered water in the filter device 3 from being discharged into the mounting groove 13 through the second end of the drain pipe 6. When the user needs to clean the filter screen in the filter device 3, the outlet of the second end of the second sealing plug 7 can be opened, at which time the water intake in the filter device 3 stops, allowing the user to remove the filter element in the filter chamber 30 for cleaning through the cleaning port 131.
[0086] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment processing device includes a water collection box 8. The water collection box 8 can be mounted on a mounting cover 14 and is disposed on the side wall of the mounting cover 14 facing the mounting groove 13. The water collection box 8 can be box-shaped. The interior of the water collection box 8 has a water storage chamber 80 for storing water. A water inlet 821 is provided on the side wall of the water collection box 8. The water inlet 821 can communicate with the water storage chamber 80.
[0087] When the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting slot 13, the water receiving box 8 is located outside the housing 1, with the water inlet 821 on the water receiving box 8 facing upwards, and the second end of the residual water drain pipe 6 can extend into the water storage chamber 80. Thus, when it is necessary to clean the filter device 3, the residual water in the filter chamber 30 can sequentially enter the water storage chamber 80 through the first end of the residual water drain pipe 6, the second end of the residual water drain pipe 6, and the water inlet 821, thereby enabling the water receiving box 8 to receive the residual water in the filter device 3. This prevents the residual water in the filter chamber 30 from overflowing onto the ground during drainage, thus avoiding water accumulation and contamination of the floor.
[0088] When the mounting cover 14 closes the mounting slot 13, the water receiving box 8 is housed within the mounting slot 13. Thus, the mounting slot 13 is used to house the water receiving box 8, thereby improving the utilization rate of the space within the mounting slot 13 and enhancing the overall compactness of the housing 1.
[0089] In some embodiments, the water receiving box 8 includes a folding wall 81. The folding wall 81 is disposed on the periphery of the water receiving box 8. A water storage cavity 80 is formed inside the folding wall 81. The folding wall 81 is foldable or unfoldable along the height direction of the water storage cavity 80.
[0090] Specifically, when the mounting box opens the mounting slot 13, the folding wall 81 can unfold along the height direction of the water storage cavity 80 to increase the accommodating space of the water storage cavity 80, thereby increasing the accommodating space of the mounting box for residual water.
[0091] When the mounting box closes the mounting slot 13, the folding wall 81 can fold along the height direction of the water storage chamber 80, so that the folded mounting box can be accommodated in the mounting slot 13, thereby reducing the space occupied by the mounting box and thus reducing the space required for the mounting slot 13. In some embodiments, the water receiving box 8 may be made of silicone. The folding wall 81 has foldable pleats. The extension direction of the pleats is perpendicular to the extension direction of the folding wall 81. When the water receiving box 8 needs to be folded, the pleats can overlap and compress each other. This allows the water receiving box 8 to be folded, reducing its volume.
[0092] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the water receiving box 8 may also be made of other deformable materials, which are not limited here.
[0093] In some embodiments, when the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the second end of the residual water drain pipe 6 can extend into the water inlet 821 and transport the residual water to the water storage chamber 80 through the water inlet 821. After water is injected into the water storage chamber 80, the pressure of the liquid in the water storage chamber 80 can expand the folds on the outside of the folded wall 81, thereby increasing the accommodating space of the water storage chamber 80.
[0094] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the water receiving box 8 includes a top plate 82. The top plate 82 may be located on the side of the folding wall 81 away from the mounting cover 14. The top plate 82 is connected to the end of the folding wall 81 away from the mounting cover 14. A water inlet 821 may be provided on the top plate 82. When the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the mounting cover 14 is horizontally arranged in front of the mounting groove 13, the top plate 82 is located on the top of the folding wall 81, and the water inlet 821 is provided on the top plate 82. Thus, by providing a water inlet 821 at the top plate 82, and connecting the residual water pipe 6 to the water inlet 821 of the top plate 82, it is ensured that the water storage chamber 80 can be filled with water.
[0095] In some embodiments, the garment handling device further includes a connecting ring 822. The connecting ring 822 is annular. The connecting ring 822 can be installed at the water inlet 821. The second end of the drain pipe 6 can extend into and be connected to the connecting ring 822. Thus, the second end of the drain pipe 6 is connected by the connecting ring 822, thereby achieving communication between the second end of the drain pipe 6 and the water inlet 821.
[0096] In some embodiments, a connecting cavity 8221 is provided on the side of the connecting ring 822 away from the folded wall 81. The connecting cavity 8221 may be formed by a recess in the inner edge of the connecting ring 822 on the side away from the folded wall 81. The second end of the drain pipe 6 may extend into and be connected to the connecting cavity 8221. Thus, by connecting the connecting ring 822 to the drain pipe 6, the connection stability between the drain pipe 6 and the connecting ring 822 can be improved.
[0097] Please see Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the second end of the drain pipe 6 may be provided with a first magnetic attractor 61. A second magnetic attractor 8222 may be provided inside the connecting cavity 8221. The second magnetic attractor 8222 is fixedly installed inside the connecting cavity 8221. When the second end of the drain pipe 6 can be inserted into and connected to the connecting cavity 8221, the first magnetic attractor 61 and the second magnetic attractor 8222 can be magnetically attracted to each other, thereby connecting the connecting ring 822 to the drain pipe 6, thereby improving the connection stability between the drain pipe 6 and the connecting ring 822.
[0098] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the connecting ring 822 and the drain pipe 6 can also be connected by other detachable connection structures.
[0099] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the water receiving box 8 may include a base plate 83. The base plate 83 may be located on the side of the folding wall 81 away from the top plate 82. The base plate 83 is connected to the end of the folding wall 81 away from the mounting cover 14. The base plate 83 and the folding wall 81 enclose a water storage cavity 80. When the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the mounting cover 14 is horizontally arranged on the front side of the mounting groove 13, and the base plate 83 is located at the bottom of the folding wall 81. Thus, by using the base plate 83 and the folding wall 81 to enclose the water storage cavity 80, the structural strength of the water storage cavity 80 can be improved while ensuring that the folding wall 81 can be folded.
[0100] Please see Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, a slider 823 is provided on the side wall of the water receiving box 8 facing the mounting cover 14. The slider 823 can be provided on the surface of the base plate 83 away from the top plate 82. A groove 141 is provided on the side wall of the mounting cover 14 facing the mounting groove 13. The groove 141 is elongated. The slider 823 is slidably disposed within the groove 141. The slider 823 can be elongated. Thus, by utilizing the cooperation of the slider 823 and the groove 141, the water receiving box 8 can slide along the mounting cover 14.
[0101] In some embodiments, two slide grooves 141 may be provided. The two slide grooves 141 may be arranged at intervals on the side wall of the mounting cover 14 facing the mounting groove 13. Two sliders 823 may be provided. The two sliders 823 may be arranged at intervals on the side wall of the water receiving box 8 facing the mounting cover 14. The two sliders 823 correspond to the two slide grooves 141. The two sliders 823 can slide along the two slide grooves 141 respectively. Therefore, by utilizing the cooperative sliding of the two sliders 823 and the two slide grooves 141, the stability of the water receiving box 8 when the mounting cover 14 slides can be improved.
[0102] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the slide groove 141 may be provided with three or more slides. The slider 823 may be provided with three or more slides. The multiple slide grooves 141 and multiple sliders 823 are arranged correspondingly, thereby further improving the stability of the water receiving box 8 sliding on the mounting cover 14.
[0103] Please see Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the slider 823 includes a sliding portion 8231 and a limiting portion 8232. The sliding portion 8231 can be connected to the side wall of the water receiving box 8 near the mounting cover 14. The limiting portion 8232 is provided at the end of the sliding portion 8231 away from the water receiving box 8. The width of the limiting portion 8232 is greater than the width of the sliding portion 8231. The slide groove 141 includes a limiting groove 1412 and a sliding groove 1411 that are connected. The limiting groove 1412 is provided on the side of the sliding groove 1411 away from the water receiving box 8. The width of the limiting groove 1412 is greater than the width of the slide groove 141. The limiting portion 8232 can slide within the limiting groove 1412 in a limited manner, and the sliding portion 8231 is slidably provided within the sliding groove 1411. Therefore, by using the limiting part 8232, the slider 823 can be prevented from sliding out along its height direction, thereby improving the stability of the slider 823 sliding in the groove 141.
[0104] Please see Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the water receiving box 8 is detachably mounted on the mounting cover 14. Therefore, after the mounting slot 13 is opened on the mounting cover 14, the water receiving box 8 can be removed from the mounting cover 14, allowing for the treatment of the water receiving box 8 and the water within it, thereby improving the operability of the water receiving box 8.
[0105] Please see Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a disassembly port 1413 is provided at one end of the slide 141 along its length. The disassembly port 1413 may be located at the end of the slide 141 away from the hinge point between the mounting cover 14 and the housing 1. The disassembly port 1413 may connect the slide 141 to the external space. When the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the water receiving box 8 can slide out of the slide 141 from the disassembly port 1413.
[0106] Therefore, after the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the second end of the drain pipe 6 can be connected to the inside of the water receiving box 8. The water in the filter chamber 30 can enter the water receiving box 8 along the drain pipe 6. When the water in the filter chamber 30 is drained or the water receiving box 8 is full, the water receiving box 8 can slide out of the slide groove 141 from the disassembly port 1413, and then pour out the water in the water receiving box 8. At the same time, after pouring out the water, the water receiving box 8 can slide back into the slide groove 141 from the disassembly port 1413, and then realize the water receiving function of the water receiving box 8 again. This allows the water receiving box 8 to receive water multiple times. Moreover, after disassembling the mounting cover 14 and then pouring out the water, the water in the water receiving box 8 can be poured to other places according to the user's needs, and is not limited to draining water only around the clothing processing equipment.
[0107] In addition, after the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting slot 13, the water receiving box 8 can slide out of the slide groove 141 through the disassembly port 1413, which allows the water receiving box 8 to be repaired or replaced, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the water receiving box 8 and reducing the cost of the clothing processing equipment.
[0108] In some embodiments, the end of the slide 141 furthest from the disassembly port 1413 is a closed end. The closed end can seal the slide 141 from the mounting cover 14.
[0109] Please see Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, a stop 142 is provided on the side wall of the mounting cover 14 near the water receiving box 8. The stop 142 is rotatably disposed on one side of the disassembly port 1413. When the mounting cover 14 opens the mounting groove 13, the stop 142 can rotate to the disassembly port 1413 and abut against the side of the water receiving box 8 away from the mounting groove 13. Thus, the stop 142 can effectively prevent the water receiving box 8 from sliding out of the disassembly port 1413, improving the stability of the water receiving box 8 installed on the mounting cover 14.
[0110] Please see Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment handling device may include a first magnetic element 1421. The first magnetic element 1421 is disposed on the stop 142. The first magnetic element 1421 may be disposed on the side wall of the stop 142 near the water collection box 8. A second magnetic element 84 is disposed on the side wall of the water collection box 8 away from the disassembly port 1413. When the stop 142 abuts against the side wall of the water collection box 8, the first magnetic element 1421 can be magnetically attracted to the second magnetic element 84. Thus, by using the first magnetic element 1421 and the second magnetic element 84, the stop 142 can be made to abut against the water collection box 8, thereby preventing the stop 142 from rotating on its own, and thus improving the stability of the water collection box 8 mounted on the mounting cover 14.
