Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a door support accessory for a clothing processing device and the clothing processing device itself. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most clothes handling equipment on the market, such as drum washing machines, dryers, and washer-dryers, typically use a cantilever structure for one side of the door. The hinge side of this cantilever structure is securely connected to the front panel with screws, while the other side of the door, the door hook side, is in a free state. During the transportation of this clothing handling equipment, when it is subjected to impact, especially a drop, the door hook may shift towards the bottom of the equipment, potentially damaging the door, door lock assembly, or dryer filter. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem solved by this utility model is that when clothing processing equipment is subjected to impact during transportation, components such as the door, door lock assembly, or drying filter are easily damaged.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a door support accessory for a garment processing device. The garment processing device includes a housing with a front panel, a door, and a door lock assembly mounted on the front panel. One side of the door is hinged to the front panel, and a door hook is provided on the other side of the door. The door hook cooperates with the door lock assembly to close the door. The door support accessory has a support body, on which a first limiting part and a second limiting part are provided. When the door is in the closed state, the first limiting part is used to pass through the door hook to limit the displacement of the door hook relative to the door lock assembly when the garment processing device falls. The second limiting part is supported by the front panel to transmit the impact force of the door hook on the first limiting part during the fall to the front panel.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0006] By installing a door support fitting between the door body and the front panel, the door body can be supported by the front panel on the side where the door hook is located. When the garment handling equipment falls, as the unit rebounds after stopping its fall, the door body, under downward inertia, tends to continue moving downwards, generating a downward impact force. The first limiting part on the support body can restrict the downward displacement of the door hook relative to the door lock assembly. The impact force of the door hook on the first limiting part is transmitted through the support body to the second limiting part. Since the second limiting part is supported by the front panel, the impact force is transmitted from the second limiting part to the front panel, which ultimately absorbs the impact force. Typically, the door hook and the front panel are made of metal, which has high strength. The door support fitting can transfer the impact force generated by the door body during a fall to the front panel, reducing the probability of damage to the door body, door lock assembly, filter, etc., under the action of impact force.

[0007] Optionally, the first limiting part is a limiting opening that mates with the door hook. This improves the limiting effect of the first limiting part on the door hook.

[0008] Optionally, the second limiting part is a support surface, which is disposed on the lower side of the support body in the vertical direction and supported by the support platform on the front panel. Configuring the second limiting part as a support surface ensures sufficient contact area between the support surface and the support platform, improving support stability and support effect, thereby enhancing the transmission of impact force.

[0009] Optionally, the support surface has at least a support area that matches the shape of the support platform to further improve the support effect.

[0010] Optionally, when the door is in the closed state, the door support fitting is located between the door and the front panel, and the outer contour of the support body is obtained by conforming to the gap between the door and the front panel; and / or along the direction from the door to the front panel, the thickness of the support body is less than or equal to the minimum distance from the door to the front panel or the door lock assembly at the corresponding position.

[0011] Optionally, the supporting body has a door fitting part and a front panel fitting part, wherein the first limiting part is disposed on the front panel fitting part, and the door fitting part is hollowed out to expose the first limiting part.

[0012] Optionally, the door support accessory is provided with a positioning part, which is used to cooperate with the door body to limit the assembly position of the door support accessory. The positioning post, in conjunction with the first limiting part, can achieve the assembly positioning of the door support accessory and the fixation of its position after installation.

[0013] Optionally, the positioning part and the door body are loosely fitted. When the door body is open, the support accessory can be pre-installed on the door body via the first limiting part and the positioning part. After the clothing handling equipment is transported, when the user opens the door, the door support accessory is easily loosened, which easily attracts the user's attention and makes it relatively easy to remove the door support accessory.

[0014] Optionally, the positioning part is a positioning post, which engages with the door component assembly hole on the door body.

[0015] This application also provides a garment processing device, including any of the above-mentioned door support accessories.

[0016] Optionally, the front panel is provided with a door lock mounting groove, the door lock mounting groove having a bottom surface with mounting holes and a side wall surrounding the bottom surface, the side wall including a lower side wall located on the lower side in the vertical direction, and a support platform extending from the lower side wall along the direction of the front panel toward the door body, the second limiting part being supported on the support platform.

[0017] Optionally, the sidewall of the door lock mounting groove further includes an outer sidewall located radially outward. A door mounting groove is provided on the front panel, the door mounting groove having an annular wall surface adapted to the edge of the door body. The annular wall surface and the door lock mounting groove have an interference area. Within this interference area, the door mounting groove forms a transition portion that connects the outer sidewall to the annular wall surface. The support platform connects the annular wall surface and the transition portion circumferentially. This cleverly designs the support platform and improves its strength, preventing damage under impact.

[0018] Optionally, the support body has a front panel mating portion, which includes a first mating surface and a second mating surface that is angled to the first mating surface. The first mating surface is parallel to the bottom surface, and the second mating surface matches the shape of the transition portion. The second limiting portion is a support surface that connects the first and second mating surfaces on the lower side in the vertical direction. By using a second mating surface that is angled to the first mating surface and matches the shapes of the bottom surface and the transition portion, the matching degree between the front panel mating portion and the front panel can be further improved, thereby further enhancing the support effect on the door and ensuring that the door can be stably supported on the front panel, preventing the door from swaying relative to the front panel in the vertical direction.

[0019] Optionally, the support body has a door mating portion, which includes at least a portion of the edge of the first mating surface, at least a portion of the edge of the second mating surface, and at least a portion of the edge of the support surface.

[0020] Optionally, the lower sidewall of the door lock mounting groove is flush with the support platform. This results in better overall smoothness and uniformity of the front panel. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0032] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and beneficial effects of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] This application provides a door support accessory for a garment processing device. During the transportation of the garment processing device, the door support accessory is installed on the side of the door where the door hook is located. When the garment processing device is impacted, such as when the garment processing device is dropped, the door can be stably supported on the front panel, limiting the downward movement of the door relative to the front panel, so as to avoid damage to the door lock assembly by the door hook, and also to prevent the door from impacting and colliding with the drying filter, which would cause damage to the door and the filter.

[0034] Clothing processing equipment can include drum washing machines, drum dryers, and drum washer-dryer combos (referred to as washer-dryers).

[0035] In specific implementation, refer to Figures 1 to 9 The garment handling device 100 includes a housing with a front panel 40, a door 20, and a door lock assembly 50 mounted on the front panel 40. One side of the door 20 is hinged to the front panel 40, and the other side of the door 20 is provided with a door hook 30. The door hook 30 cooperates with the door lock assembly 50 to close the door 20.

[0036] This application does not limit the specific structure of the door 20 hinged to the front panel 40, as long as the door 20 can rotate relative to the front panel 40 around the hinge area with the front panel 40, so as to open and close the door 20.

[0037] The door support accessory 10 has a support body 13, on which a first limiting part 11 and a second limiting part 12 are provided. When the door 20 is in the closed state, the first limiting part 11 is used to pass through the door hook 30 to limit the displacement of the door hook 30 relative to the door lock assembly 50 when the clothing handling equipment 100 falls. The second limiting part 12 is supported by the front panel 40 to transmit the impact force of the door hook 30 on the first limiting part 11 when falling to the front panel 40.

[0038] By adopting the above solution, a door support accessory 10 is provided between the door body 20 and the front panel 40, which supports the door body 20 on the side where the door hook 30 is located. When the clothing handling equipment 100 falls, and the box stops falling and rebounds, since the door body 20 is only hinged to the front panel 40 on one side, and the side of the door body 20 where the door hook 30 is located is suspended, under the downward inertia, the side of the door body 20 where the door hook 30 is located still has the tendency to continue to move downward, that is, it has a downward impact force. The first limiting part 11 on the supporting body 13 can limit the downward movement of the door hook 30 relative to the door lock assembly 50. The impact force of the door hook 30 on the first limiting part 11 is transmitted to the second limiting part 12 through the supporting body 13. Since the second limiting part 12 is supported by the front panel 40, the impact force will be transmitted from the second limiting part 12 to the front panel 40, and finally the front panel 40 will absorb the impact force. Typically, the door hook 30 and the front panel 40 are made of metal, which has high strength. The door support accessory 10 can transfer the impact force generated by the door 20 when it falls to the front panel 40, reducing the probability of damage to the door 20, door lock assembly 50, drying filter, etc. under the impact force.

[0039] In a specific implementation, the first limiting part 11 is a limiting opening that mates with the door hook 30 to improve the limiting effect of the first limiting part 11 on the door hook 30. For example, the inner contour shape of the first limiting part 11 is consistent with the outer contour shape of the door hook 30.

[0040] Furthermore, the first limiting part 11 and the door hook 30 are loosely fitted, which can also be called a clearance fit. In this way, the manufacturing tolerances and assembly tolerances of the door hook 30 can be adapted during the assembly of the door support accessory 10, ensuring the smooth installation of the door support accessory 10.

[0041] In some embodiments, the support body 13 is made of plastic, which can prevent the door support accessory 10 from scratching the door hook 30, front panel 40 and other components.

[0042] In some embodiments, the second limiting portion 12 is a support surface, which is disposed on the lower side of the support body 13 in the vertical direction and supported by the support platform 42 on the front panel 40. Configuring the second limiting portion 12 as a support surface ensures sufficient contact area between the support surface and the support platform 42, improving support stability and support effect, thereby enhancing the transmission of impact force.

[0043] The supporting surface has at least a supporting area 121 that conforms to the shape of the supporting platform 42, in order to further improve the supporting effect.

[0044] The support area 121 and the support platform 42 are shaped to match each other, which can be the outer contours. Furthermore, the support area 121 has a rounded corner structure facing the front panel 40. In this way, in the event of a fall, the rounded corner structure helps to absorb the impact energy of the fall through elastic deformation, thus preventing damage to the door support fitting 10.

[0045] In specific implementation, when the door 20 is in the closed state, the door support accessory 10 is located between the door 20 and the front panel 40, and the outer contour of the support body 13 is obtained by conforming to the gap between the door 20 and the front panel 40, improving the fit and adaptability of the support body 13 with the door 20 and the front panel 40. Thus, after the door support accessory 10 is assembled onto the door hook 30, it avoids interfering with the opening or closing of the door 20, meaning the door 20 can still be opened or closed normally.

[0046] In specific implementation, along the direction from the door body 20 to the front panel 40, the thickness of the supporting body 13 is less than or equal to the minimum distance between the door body 20 and the front panel 40 or the door lock assembly 50 at the corresponding position. When the door body 20 is in the closed state, along the direction from the door body 20 to the front panel 40, in the area corresponding to the door hook 30 and the door lock assembly 50, there is a certain gap between the door body 20 and the front panel 40, and the thickness of the supporting body 13 is less than the minimum value of this gap. Thus, after the door support accessory 10 is assembled, it does not affect the closing of the door body 20.

[0047] In some embodiments, the door support fitting 10 is loosely fitted between the door 20 and the front panel 40, so as to support the door 20 on the front panel 40 while also being compatible with the distance tolerance between the door 20 and the front panel 40, thus ensuring the smooth assembly of the door support fitting 10.

[0048] In a specific implementation, the supporting body 13 has a door fitting part 132 and a front panel fitting part 133. The first limiting part 11 is disposed on the front panel fitting part 133, and the door fitting part 132 is hollowed out to expose the first limiting part 11.

[0049] In some embodiments, when the door 20 is in the closed state, the door mating part 132 faces the door 20. Further, a door ring may be provided on the door 20, and the door mating part 132 faces the door ring. In some scenarios, the door mating part 132 fits snugly against the door ring.

[0050] In some embodiments, the front panel mating portion 133 includes a first mating surface 1331 and a second mating surface 1332, wherein the second mating surface 1332 is angularly connected to the first mating surface 1331.

[0051] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 8 and Figure 9 The front panel 40 is provided with a door lock mounting groove 41. The door lock mounting groove 41 has a bottom surface 412 with mounting holes 411 and a side wall 413 surrounding the bottom surface 412. The side wall 413 includes a lower side wall 4131 located on the lower side in the vertical direction. A support platform 42 extends from the lower side wall 4131 towards the door body 20, and the second limiting part 12 is supported on the support platform 42. The bottom surface 412 of the door lock mounting groove 41 generally faces the door body 10 so that the door hook 30 and the door lock assembly 50 correspond to each other, which facilitates the cooperation between the door hook 30 and the door lock assembly 50.

[0052] The sidewall 413 of the door lock mounting groove 41 also includes an outer sidewall 4132 located radially outward.

[0053] The front panel 40 is provided with a door mounting groove 43, which has an annular wall surface 431 that fits the edge of the door 20. The annular wall surface 431 and the door lock mounting groove 41 have an interference area. Within the interference area, the door mounting groove 43 forms a transition portion 432 that connects the outer wall 4132 to the annular wall surface 431. The support platform 42 connects the annular wall surface 431 and the transition portion 432 in the circumferential direction. This cleverly positions the support platform 42 and increases its strength, preventing damage under impact.

[0054] In some embodiments, the lower sidewall 4131 of the door lock mounting groove 41 is flush with the support platform 42. This provides better support and results in a smoother overall surface and a more uniform appearance for the front panel 40.

[0055] In practice, the support platform 42 can be integrated into the front panel 40 during its production.

[0056] In some scenarios, the support platform 42 can be specially formed. In other scenarios, during the production of the front panel 40, due to process reasons, a platform may be formed at the bottom of the door lock mounting groove 41, and this existing platform can be used as the support platform 42.

[0057] In some embodiments, the door lock mounting groove 41 is disposed within the door body mounting groove 43.

[0058] In some non-limiting embodiments, along the direction from the center to the periphery of the front panel 40, the transition portion 432 is further away from the center of the front panel 40 than the outer wall 4132. That is, the distance from the transition portion to the center of the front panel 40 is greater than the distance from the outer wall 4132 to the center of the front panel 40.

[0059] In some non-limiting embodiments, the front panel mating portion 133 is parallel to the front panel 40 to improve the fit between the front panel mating portion 133 and the front panel 40. Specifically, the first mating surface 1331 is parallel to the bottom surface 412.

[0060] The second mating surface 1332 matches the shape of the transition portion 432. Thus, when the door 20 is closed, the transition portion 432 can reduce or even avoid interference of the door lock mounting groove 41 with the door 20 when the door is closed, resulting in a higher fit between the front panel mating portion 133 and the front panel 40, which helps to improve the support effect of the door support accessory 10 in supporting the door 20 on the front panel 40.

[0061] The included angle between the first mating surface 1331 and the second mating surface 1332 is related to the included angle between the bottom surface 412 and the transition portion 432. For example, the included angle between the first mating surface 1331 and the second mating surface 1332 is the same as the included angle between the bottom surface 412 and the transition portion 432, so as to further improve the matching degree and fit between the front panel mating portion 133 and the front panel 40.

[0062] The second limiting part 12 is a support surface that connects the first mating surface 1331 and the second mating surface 1332 on the lower side in the vertical direction.

[0063] The door body mating part 132 includes at least a portion of the edge 1331a of the first mating surface 1331, at least a portion of the edge 1332a of the second mating surface 1332, and at least a portion of the edge 12a of the supporting surface.

[0064] In a specific implementation, the door support accessory 10 is provided with a positioning part 14, which is used to cooperate with the door body 20 to limit the assembly position of the door support accessory 10.

[0065] The positioning part 14 and the door body 20 are loosely fitted. When the door body 20 is in the open state, the door support accessory 10 can be pre-installed on the door body 20 through the first limiting part 11 and the positioning part 14. After the clothing handling equipment 100 is transported, when the user opens the door body 20, the door support accessory 10 is easily loosened, which easily attracts the user's attention and makes it relatively easy to remove the door support accessory 10.

[0066] Furthermore, a reminder message can be set on the door support accessory 10 to remind the user that the door support accessory 10 is only used when the garment processing equipment 100 is being transported, and that the door support accessory 10 should be removed when the garment processing equipment 100 is being used normally.

[0067] For example, the reminder information is placed on the front panel mating part 133 of the door support fitting 10. Further, it is placed on the first mating surface 1331. It is understood that it can also be placed in other prominent locations. The reminder information could be something like "Please remove before using the machine," "Please remove before using the machine," or "This part is only for machine transportation."

[0068] In some embodiments, the positioning part 14 engages with the door assembly mounting hole 21 on the door body 10. Specifically, when the door body 20 is in the open state, the first limiting part 11 passes through the door hook 30, and the positioning part 14 passes into the door assembly mounting hole 21, so as to pre-install the door support accessory 10 on the door body 20.

[0069] The positioning part 14 is a positioning post. Furthermore, the positioning part 14 is a hollow positioning post to avoid injection molding defects during production and to ensure the dimensions of the positioning part 14 after molding.

[0070] In some implementations, combined with Figure 2 The supporting body 13 of the door support accessory 10 may be provided with reinforcing ribs 15. There may be multiple reinforcing ribs 15, and the extension direction of the multiple reinforcing ribs 15 shall include at least two directions, so that the reinforcing ribs 15 can strengthen the strength of the supporting body 13 in at least two directions.

[0071] Furthermore, the shape of the reinforcing rib 15 can also be obtained by contouring, so that after the door support accessory 10 is installed on the door 20, the shape of the area where the reinforcing rib 15 contacts the door 20 is adapted to the shape of the door 20.

[0072] Combination Figures 1 to 9 This application also provides a clothing processing device 100, including any of the above-mentioned door support accessories 10.

[0073] In a specific implementation, the front panel 40 is provided with a door lock mounting groove 41. The door lock mounting groove 41 has a bottom surface 412 with mounting holes 411 and a side wall 413 surrounding the bottom surface 412. The side wall 413 includes a lower side wall 4131 located on the lower side in the vertical direction. A support platform 42 extends from the lower side wall 4131 along the direction from the front panel 40 toward the door body 20. The second limiting part 12 is supported on the support platform 42.

[0074] The door lock mounting slot 41 is used to assemble the door lock assembly 50. The door lock assembly 50 includes at least a door lock and a door lock cover plate. The mounting hole 411 is used to assemble the door lock and the door lock cover plate. The door lock and the door lock cover plate are located on opposite sides of the door lock mounting slot 41, with the door lock cover plate located on the side of the door lock mounting slot 41 facing the door body 20. The door lock cover plate is provided with a door hook clearance opening. When the door body 20 is closed, the door hook 30 passes through the door hook clearance opening to engage with the door lock.

[0075] After the door lock assembly 50 is assembled, it is at least partially located within the door lock mounting groove 41. In a non-limiting embodiment, the door lock cover may be flush with the side wall 413, that is, the door lock cover may be flush with the door lock mounting groove 41, thus ensuring the appearance consistency between the front panel 40 and the door lock assembly 50. It is understood that the door lock cover may also be slightly lower or slightly higher than the door lock mounting groove 41.

[0076] In a specific implementation, the sidewall 413 of the door lock mounting groove 41 also includes an outer sidewall 4132 located radially outward. Radial outward may refer to the radial outward of the roller in the garment processing device 100.

[0077] The front panel 40 is provided with a door mounting groove 43, which has an annular wall surface 431 adapted to the edge of the door 20 and a transition portion 432. The transition portion 432 connects the outer wall 4132 to the annular wall surface 431. The support platform 42 connects the annular wall surface 431 and the transition portion 432 in the circumferential direction.

[0078] The lower side wall 4131 of the door lock mounting groove 41 is flush with the support platform 42.

[0079] In a specific implementation, the supporting body 13 has a front panel mating part 133, which includes a first mating surface 1331 and a second mating surface 1332 that is angularly connected to the first mating surface 1331. The first mating surface 1331 is parallel to the bottom surface 412, and the second mating surface 1332 matches the shape of the transition part 432. The second limiting part 12 is a supporting surface that connects the first mating surface 1331 and the second mating surface 1332 on the lower side in the vertical direction.
