Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1-6 ; This utility model proposes a gear adjustment module for use in a washing machine, including a fixed bracket 1. The fixed bracket 1 has a mounting cavity 11. Several metal brushes 21 are fixed at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11. One end of each metal brush 21 is connected to a connector 23 via a wire 22, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of a turntable 25. It should be noted that a conductive sheet 24 is provided on the bottom surface of the turntable 25. The metal brushes 21 include a common end and several gear-specific ends. The common end is always in contact with the conductive sheet 24. By rotating the turntable 25, the conductive sheet 24 contacts different gear-specific brushes. This allows for switching between different gears. Of course, these structures are all existing technologies. The upper surface of the turntable 25 is provided with a positioning spring 26, which is installed on the end cover 27. More specifically, the end face of the turntable 25 is undulating and wave-shaped. The lower end face of the positioning spring 26 is provided with several protrusions for locking into the wave-shaped positions. Each time the turntable 25 is rotated, it can emit a sound to remind the user and fix the current position of the turntable 25. The end cover 27 is detachably connected to the fixed bracket 1. A rotating shaft 28 is fixed on the turntable 25 and extends through the end cover 27 to the outside.

[0021] This utility model utilizes the mounting bracket originally installed on the washing machine as the fixed bracket 1 of the encoder. In other words, this part can be combined into a whole module during the production process, saving a part. Secondly, it only needs to be installed once during the installation process, eliminating the installation steps of the bracket and encoder, thus improving work efficiency and saving costs.

[0022] In this embodiment of the utility model, the fixed bracket 1 is provided with mounting parts 12 on both sides. The mounting parts 12 correspond to the washing machine panel and can be through holes. They are installed and fixed to the surface of the washing machine by fixing components.

[0023] In this embodiment of the utility model, a positioning flange 251 is provided at the center of the bottom surface of the turntable 25, and a positioning groove 13 that cooperates with the positioning flange 251 is provided at the bottom of the fixed bracket 1. In addition, a through hole is provided on the end cover 27 through which the rotating shaft 28 passes. The positioning flange 251 and the through hole of the end cover 27 are coaxially arranged to form a limiting structure, so that the rotating shaft 28 and the turntable 25 will not be offset.

[0024] In one embodiment of the positioning spring 26 of this utility model, the bottom surface of the end cap 27 is provided with a plurality of first positioning posts 271, and the side of the positioning spring 26 is provided with a plurality of extensions 261. A first positioning hole 262 matching the first positioning post 271 is provided at the extension 261. Preferably, there are at least two extensions 261. In addition, the first positioning post 271 can be interference-fitted with the first positioning hole 262 to fix it.

[0025] This utility model relates to the installation method of the fixed bracket 1 and the end cap 27; In one embodiment, the bottom surface of the end cap 27 is provided with a plurality of second positioning posts 272, and the end face of the fixed bracket 1 is provided with a second positioning hole 14 that matches the second positioning posts 272; a plurality of buckles 273 are provided on the outer periphery of the end cap 27, and a plurality of locking blocks 15 that cooperate with the buckles 273 are provided on the outer periphery of the fixed bracket 1.

[0026] In the second embodiment, the end face of the fixed bracket 1 is provided with several third positioning posts 16, and a fixing head 17 is provided at the end of the third positioning posts 16. The end cover 27 is provided with several third positioning holes 274 that match the third positioning posts 16. The diameter of the third positioning holes 274 is the same as the diameter of the third positioning posts 16, while the diameter of the fixing head 17 is slightly larger than the diameter of the third positioning holes 274. The fixing head 17 is squeezed into the third positioning holes 274 by an interference fit. After it has completely passed through the third positioning holes, the fixing head 17 returns to its original position and abuts against the upper end face of the end cover 27. This method eliminates the need for external fixing brackets to fix it again, preventing the end cover 27 from falling off. Several buckles 273 are provided on the outer periphery of the end cover 27, and several locking blocks 15 that cooperate with the buckles 273 are provided on the outer periphery of the fixed bracket 1.

[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0028] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style of the specification is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
