Detailed Implementation
[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0025] The following is for reference. Figures 1-11 Description of the door assembly 100 of the garment processing device according to an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0026] Reference Figures 1-4 According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the door assembly 100 of the clothing processing device includes an inner door 11, the inner door 11 includes a sealing cover 13, and the sealing cover 13 is used to seal the clothing loading and unloading port 40a of the clothing processing device 300.
[0027] The door assembly 100 of the garment handling equipment also includes an outer door 12, which is located outside the inner door 11. The outer door 12 includes a middle portion 122, which is disposed opposite to the sealing cover 13. The middle portion 122 extends at least partially toward the sealing cover 13 to form a protrusion 122a on the side of the middle portion 122 facing the sealing cover 13 and a first cavity 122b on the side of the middle portion 122 away from the sealing cover 13.
[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the door assembly 100 of the garment handling device includes an inner door 11 with a sealing cover 13. The sealing cover 13 seals the garment loading / unloading opening 40a of the garment handling device 300, thereby preventing water from overflowing from the opening 40a during operation of the garment handling device 300. The middle portion 122 extends at least towards the sealing cover 13, increasing the structural strength of the outer door 12 and improving the deformation resistance of the door assembly 100. Furthermore, a first recess 122b is formed on the side of the middle portion 122 facing away from the sealing cover 13, providing clearance and reducing the likelihood of the outer door 12 being bumped or damaged.
[0029] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the cavity wall of the first cavity 122b is a concave arc surface.
[0030] This design allows for smoother and more flowing lines on the outer door 12, enhancing the aesthetics of the door assembly 100 and providing a better visual experience for users. On the other hand, when the outer door 12 is impacted, the concave arc surface disperses the force, thereby giving the outer door 12 greater structural strength and reducing the likelihood of damage from impacts.
[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the middle part 122 is a solid of revolution. Here, "solid of revolution" refers to a three-dimensional spatial figure formed by rotating a planar figure (called a cross section or generatrix) around a fixed straight line (called a rotation axis) in its plane.
[0032] In modern manufacturing, the processing technology for rotating bodies is relatively mature. By setting the middle part 122 as a rotating body, large-scale industrial production can be carried out, which is conducive to improving production efficiency and reducing production costs. Furthermore, since the rotating body has a rotationally symmetric structure, it can better distribute stress, thereby improving the structural strength of the middle part 122 and making the middle part 122 more robust and durable.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the outer door 12 further includes a first annular baffle 123, which surrounds the outer periphery of the middle portion 122.
[0034] In the above technical solution, by surrounding the middle part 122 with the first annular baffle 123, the middle part 122 can be connected by the first annular baffle 123, thereby protecting the inner door 11 and preventing external dust, water and other substances from contacting the inner door 11. The first annular baffle 123 can also cover part of the inner door 11, preventing the components on the inner door 11 from being exposed, thereby improving the appearance of the door assembly 100 and further enhancing the user's visual experience.
[0035] Reference Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 is an arc shape that arches away from the inner door 11, and the first annular baffle 123 is connected to the middle part 122 by a circular arc transition. Here, the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 refers to the cross-section taken by a plane passing through the central axis of the first annular baffle 123.
[0036] By setting the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 to be an arc shape that arches away from the inner door 11, a cavity can be formed between the inner door 11 and the first annular baffle 123, providing a mounting position for other components of the door assembly 100. By connecting the first annular baffle 123 and the middle part 122 with an arc transition, the surface of the outer door 12 can be made smoother and cleaner, which not only helps to improve the aesthetics of the outer door 12, but also reduces the chance of users' fingers being cut when using the door assembly 100, thus enhancing the safety of the door assembly 100.
[0037] Reference Figures 3-5 In some other embodiments, the outer door 12 includes a base layer 124, a light-shielding layer 125, and a diaphragm 126 arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside along its thickness direction. Each of the base layer 124 and the diaphragm 126 includes a central region and a peripheral region, with the peripheral region surrounding the outer periphery of the central region.
[0038] The middle part 122 includes the middle region of the layered base 124 and the middle region of the diaphragm 126, and the first annular baffle 123 includes the outer region of the layered base 124, the light-shielding layer 125, and the outer region of the diaphragm 126.
[0039] The base layer 124 here can provide support for the light-shielding layer 125 and the membrane 126. For example, the base layer 124 can be formed by injection molding, which is easy to form and has a low cost, and can be mass-produced.
[0040] For example, the base layer 124 and the diaphragm 126 are made of transparent or semi-transparent materials, so that the central area of the base layer 124 and the central area of the diaphragm 126 are stacked to make the central area visible, which is beneficial for users to observe the internal condition of the clothing processing equipment 300 through the central area.
[0041] A light-shielding layer 125 is provided between the outer area of the base layer 124 and the outer area of the diaphragm 126. On the one hand, the light-shielding layer 125 can be used to shield the internal structure of the door assembly 100, preventing users from observing the internal structure of the door assembly 100 from the outside, thus affecting the user's perception. On the other hand, different colors, patterns, etc. can be selected as needed to meet the user's personalized design requirements for the appearance of the door assembly 100.
[0042] For example, at least a portion of the light-shielding layer 125 may be a light-transmitting area. For instance, in an embodiment where a light-emitting device 20 is provided on the outer door 12, the position of the light-shielding layer 125 opposite to the light-emitting device 20 may be a light-transmitting area. This allows the light-transmitting area of the light-shielding layer 125 to transmit the light emitted by the light-emitting device 20 when the light-emitting device 20 is working, thus achieving functions such as illumination and display. However, after the light-emitting device 20 stops working, the light-transmitting area of the light-shielding layer 125 can still block the internal structure of the door assembly 100.
[0043] For example, the light-blocking layer 125 can be a single-layer structure, where it only serves to block light; or the light-blocking layer 125 can be a multi-layer structure, where it not only blocks light but also functions as a display panel, allowing users to intuitively observe the operating status of the clothing processing equipment 300 and providing a better user experience.
[0044] Reference Figure 6 In some examples, the door assembly 100 of the garment handling equipment also includes a light-emitting device 20 located between the inner door 11 and the first annular baffle 123, and the light-emitting device 20 is connected to the side of the first annular baffle 123 facing the inner door 11.
[0045] Since users cannot accurately locate the door component 100 in dark or low-light conditions, which affects the user experience, a light-emitting device 20 is provided to emit light, thereby serving as an illumination indicator in dark or low-light conditions, so that users can easily locate the door component 100 in dark or low-light conditions and use the clothing processing device 300 to process clothing.
[0046] Furthermore, by placing the light-emitting device 20 between the inner door 11 and the first annular baffle 123, not only can the inner door 11 and the first annular baffle 123 protect the light-emitting device 20 and reduce the probability of the light-emitting device 20 being damaged by external impact, but the light-emitting device 20 can also be prevented from being exposed on the surface of the door assembly 100, thus affecting the appearance of the door assembly 100.
[0047] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some specific examples, the light-emitting device 20 includes a light-emitting body 211 and a light guide 212, which guides the light emitted by the light-emitting body 211 to a preset area of the first annular baffle 123.
[0048] It should be noted that the "preset area" here can be the outer contour of the door assembly 100. In the embodiment where the clothing processing device 300 is wall-mounted, the light guide 212 guides the light emitted by the light-emitting body 211 to the preset area, which can act as a marker light in the dark. The "preset area" can also be the position of the door handle. The light guide 212 guides the light emitted by the light-emitting body 211 to the preset area, which can act as an indicator light, etc.
[0049] The door components of clothing processing equipment in related technologies achieve display and lighting functions by setting up LED beads. Since the light-emitting area of a single LED bead is small, multiple LED beads are often required to meet the display or lighting requirements. Although the display or lighting requirements can be met, it will increase the cost.
[0050] In the above technical solution, by setting the light-emitting device 20 to include a light-emitting body 211 and a light guide 212, and using the light guide 212 to guide the light from the light-emitting body 211 to the preset area of the first annular baffle 123, a smaller number of light-emitting bodies 211 can be used to meet the needs of display, lighting and other functions while reducing production costs.
[0051] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some further specific examples, the light guide 212 extends circumferentially along the middle portion 122.
[0052] With this configuration, when the light-emitting body 211 emits light, the light is conducted within the light guide 212, causing the light guide 212 to form a light-emitting effect similar to an arc-shaped light strip. This can increase the light-emitting area of the light-emitting device 20 and improve the display or lighting effect of the light-emitting device 20.
[0053] Of course, the light-emitting device 20 can also perform display functions. For example, the working status of the clothing processing equipment 300 can be displayed by the light-emitting frequency and brightness of the light-emitting device 20. The specific design can be made according to the actual situation.
[0054] In some other specific embodiments, the door assembly 100 is circular, and the light guide 212 is an arc-shaped component, with the center of the circular component coinciding with the center of the arc-shaped component.
[0055] Therefore, by setting the light guide 212 as an arc and aligning the center of the arc with the center of the door assembly 100, the light-emitting area formed by the light guide 212 on the door assembly 100 is equidistant from the outer edge of the door assembly 100, so that the two are matched in shape. This can improve the visual comfort of the door assembly 100 while meeting the display or lighting needs.
[0056] Reference Figure 7In some examples, the number of light-emitting bodies 211 is at least two, and the at least two light-emitting bodies 211 are respectively disposed at both ends of the extension direction of the light guide 212.
[0057] By disposing at least two light-emitting bodies 211 at both ends of the extending direction of the light guide 212, on the one hand, the two light-emitting bodies 211 can emit light simultaneously, allowing the light guide 212 to guide more light to the preset area, thereby enhancing the lighting effect of the light-emitting device 20. On the other hand, it can reduce the possibility of the light-emitting device 20 malfunctioning. Even if one of the light-emitting bodies 211 is damaged, the other light-emitting body 211 can still emit light, allowing the light guide 212 to continue guiding light to the preset area, thereby ensuring that the light-emitting device 20 can continue to display or illuminate.
[0058] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 For example, the light-emitting body 211 is provided with a connecting hole 211a, and the outer door 12 is provided with a connecting post 121. Fasteners (not shown in the figure) are sequentially inserted through the connecting hole 211a and the connecting post 121 to fix the light-emitting body 211 on the outer door 12.
[0059] Continue to refer to Figure 7 In some specific examples, the light-emitting device 20 also includes a circuit board 23, which is located between the two ends of the light guide 212 in the extension direction, and the light-emitting body 211 is connected to the circuit board 23.
[0060] In the above technical solution, by placing the circuit board 23 between the two ends of the extension direction of the light guide 212, on the one hand, the remaining area of the middle part 122, the light guide 212, etc. can be removed by the outer door 12, thereby improving the space utilization rate; on the other hand, the distance between the circuit board 23 and the light-emitting body 211 can be shortened as much as possible, thereby reducing the length of the signal line and helping to reduce production costs.
[0061] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the light-emitting device 20 further includes a bracket 24 disposed inside the outer door 12. The bracket 24 has a first mounting area 24a, the extension direction of the first mounting area 24a being consistent with the extension direction of the light guide 212, and the light guide 212 being mounted in the first mounting area 24a.
[0062] Therefore, by setting the bracket 24, an installation carrier can be provided for the light guide 212, which facilitates the installation of the light guide 212 into the outer door 12. By setting the extension direction of the first installation area 24a of the bracket 24 to be consistent with the extension direction of the light guide 212, the shape of the first installation area 24a can be made to match the shape of the light guide 212. On the one hand, it can protect the light guide 212 and extend its service life, and on the other hand, it can improve the installation stability of the light guide 212.
[0063] Reference Figure 8 In some specific embodiments, the first mounting area 24a has a first mounting groove 24a1, and the light guide 212 is disposed in the first mounting groove 24a1. This arrangement allows the first mounting groove 24a1 to protect the light guide 212, reducing the possibility of damage to the light guide 212 due to external impacts, and ensuring the reliability of the light-emitting device 20.
[0064] Continue to refer to Figure 8 In some embodiments, the bracket 24 also has a second mounting area 24b. The light-emitting device 20 includes a first light-emitting element 21 and a second light-emitting element (not shown in the figure). The first light-emitting element 21 includes a light-emitting body 211 and a light guide 212. The first light-emitting element 21 is disposed in the first mounting area 24a, and the second light-emitting element may be disposed in the second mounting area 24b.
[0065] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 In other examples, the second mounting area 24b has a plurality of second mounting slots 24b1, which are arranged in the extending direction of the second mounting area 24b, and the second light-emitting element is disposed in the plurality of second mounting slots 24b1.
[0066] Understandably, in scenarios with high light intensity, the light emitted by the first light-emitting element 21 alone is sufficient to illuminate the preset area. However, in scenarios with low light intensity, the light emitted by the first light-emitting element 21 alone may not be enough to meet the lighting requirements. Therefore, by placing the second light-emitting element in the second mounting area 24b, the combined effect of the first and second light-emitting elements can enhance the lighting effect of the light-emitting device 20 and achieve illumination of the preset area.
[0067] Of course, a second light-emitting element can also be used to achieve the display function. For example, the working status of the clothing processing equipment 300 can be displayed by the light emission frequency and brightness of the second light-emitting element. The specific design can be made according to the actual situation.
[0068] In the above technical solution, by setting a first mounting area 24a and a second mounting area 24b on the bracket 24, the versatility of the bracket 24 can be improved; by setting the second light-emitting element in the second mounting area 24b, the display or lighting needs of users can be met, and a good user experience can be provided.
[0069] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some specific embodiments, the extension direction of the first mounting area 24a and the extension direction of the second mounting area 24b are both consistent with the extension direction of the outer contour of the outer door 12, and the second mounting area 24b and the first mounting area 24a are arranged radially on the outer door 12.
[0070] In the above technical solution, by setting the extension direction of the first installation area 24a and the extension direction of the second installation area 24b to be consistent with the extension direction of the outer contour of the outer door 12, the first light-emitting element 21 and the second light-emitting element can be set in the extension direction of the outer contour of the outer door 12. On the one hand, the display or lighting area can be increased, and the display or lighting effect of the light-emitting device 20 can be further improved. On the other hand, the uniformity of display or lighting can be improved.
[0071] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some examples, the bracket 24 is mounted in the door body via the first structural member 25 and the second structural member 26.
[0072] The extension direction of the bracket 24 is consistent with the extension direction of the outer contour of the outer door 12. One of the first structural member 25 and the second structural member 26 is located on the side of the bracket 24 closer to the center of the outer door 12, and the other of the first structural member 25 and the second structural member 26 is located on the side of the bracket 24 away from the center of the outer door 12.
[0073] For example, the first structural member 25 is located on the side of the bracket 24 closer to the center of the outer door 12, and the second structural member 26 is located on the side of the bracket 24 away from the center of the outer door 12; of course, it is also possible that the first structural member 25 is located on the side of the bracket 24 away from the center of the outer door 12, and the second structural member 26 is located on the side of the bracket 24 closer to the center of the outer door 12.
[0074] In the above technical solution, by setting the first structural component 25 and the second structural component 26, the bracket 24 can be installed inside the outer door 12 using the first structural component 25 and the second structural component 26. This can improve the installation reliability of the bracket 24 on the outer door 12, prevent the bracket 24 from falling off the outer door 12, and ensure that the first light-emitting component 21 can display or illuminate normally.
[0075] Reference Figures 6-8 and further refer to Figure 11 In some specific examples, the first structural member 25 includes a plurality of first snap-fit portions 251 and a plurality of second snap-fit portions 252. The plurality of first snap-fit portions 251 are disposed on the bracket 24 and are arranged in the extending direction of the bracket 24. The plurality of second snap-fit portions 252 are disposed on the outer door 12 and are snap-fitted in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of first snap-fit portions 251.
[0076] For example, one of the first snap-fit portion 251 and the second snap-fit portion 252 is a snap hook 2521 and the other is a snap protrusion 2511, and the multiple snap hooks 2521 and the multiple snap protrusions 2511 are snap-fitted in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0077] For example, the first snap-fit part 251 is a snap-fit protrusion 2511, the second snap-fit part 252 is a snap-fit hook 2521, multiple snap-fit protrusions 2511 are provided on the bracket 24, multiple snap-fit protrusions 2511 are arranged in the extending direction of the bracket 24, multiple snap-fit hooks 2521 are provided on the outer door 12, and multiple snap-fit hooks 2521 and multiple snap-fit protrusions 2511 are engaged in a one-to-one manner to install the bracket 24 inside the outer door 12.
[0078] For example, the first snap-fit part 251 is a snap hook 2521, the second snap-fit part 252 is a snap protrusion 2511, multiple snap hooks 2521 are provided on the bracket 24, multiple snap hooks 2521 are arranged in the extending direction of the bracket 24, multiple snap protrusions 2511 are provided on the outer door 12, and multiple snap hooks 2521 and multiple snap protrusions 2511 are snapped together in a one-to-one correspondence to install the bracket 24 inside the outer door 12.
[0079] For example, one of the first snap-fit portion 251 and the second snap-fit portion 252 is a snap hook 2521 and the other is a snap slot, and the multiple snap hooks 2521 and the multiple snap slots are snap-fitted together in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0080] Therefore, by configuring the first structural member 25 to include multiple first snap-fit parts 251 and multiple second snap-fit parts 252, the first light-emitting element 21 and the outer door 12 can be snap-fitted together, which simplifies the connection steps between the first light-emitting element 21 and the outer door 12 and helps to improve production efficiency.
[0081] In some other specific embodiments, the second structural member 26 includes a limiting rib 261, which is disposed on the outer door 12 and extends in the same direction as the bracket 24. The limiting rib 261 is used to stop the bracket 24.
[0082] In the above technical solution, by setting the first structural member 25 to include multiple first snap-fit parts 251 and multiple second snap-fit parts 252, and setting the second structural member 26 to include a limiting rib 261, the multiple first snap-fit parts 251 and multiple second snap-fit parts 252 can be snapped together one by one, and the limiting rib 261 can be used to stop the bracket 24, thereby installing the bracket 24 inside the outer door 12, reducing the risk of the bracket 24 falling off from the outer door 12, and ensuring that the first light-emitting element 21 can display or illuminate normally.
[0083] The number of limiting ribs 261 can be one. The limiting rib 261 is an arc-shaped rib, which can limit the bracket 24 in the radial direction of the outer door 12.
[0084] Of course, there can be multiple limiting ribs 261. Multiple limiting ribs 261 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the outer door 12, that is, the arrangement direction of multiple limiting ribs 261 is consistent with the extension direction of the bracket 24. Each limiting rib 261 can extend along the circumferential direction of the outer door 12 and abut against the bracket 24, thereby playing a blocking role for the bracket 24.
[0085] For example, refer to Figure 8 The door assembly 100 is also provided with a buffer 14, which extends out of the inner door 11 and can contact the front panel (not shown in the figure) of the clothing handling equipment 300 when the door is closed, so as to play a buffering role and reduce the noise of closing the door.
[0086] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 is at least partially formed as an arc shape that arches away from the inner door 11, and the light-emitting device 20 is disposed at the arched position of the first annular baffle 123.
[0087] Specifically, the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 is at least partially arched away from the inner door 11, which can disperse the impact force when the arched position of the first annular baffle 123 is impacted, so that the arched position of the first annular baffle 123 has strong structural strength, which can provide strong protection for the light-emitting device 20 set at the arched position of the first annular baffle 123, and prevent the door assembly 100 from colliding with other objects (such as walls) when the user opens the door assembly 100, thereby causing damage to the light-emitting device 20.
[0088] Therefore, by setting the cross-section of the first annular baffle 123 to at least partially be an arc shape that arches away from the inner door 11, it can provide a setting position for the light-emitting device 20 on the one hand, and provide strong protection for the light-emitting device 20 on the other hand.
[0089] Continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the inner door 11 further includes a second annular baffle 111, which surrounds the outer periphery of the middle portion 122.
[0090] The second annular baffle 111 is arranged opposite to the first annular baffle 123, and the light-emitting device 20 is located on the side of the first annular baffle 123 facing the second annular baffle 111. The second annular baffle 111 covers the light-emitting device 20.
[0091] In the above technical solution, by setting the second annular baffle 111 opposite to the first annular baffle 123, the second annular baffle 111 and the first annular baffle 123 can be used to protect the light-emitting device 20, which is beneficial to extend the service life of the light-emitting device 20. In addition, the second annular baffle 111 covers the light-emitting device 20, which can prevent the light-emitting device 20 from the position of the inner door 11 in contact with water, and prevent the light-emitting device 20 from being damaged by water ingress.
[0092] Reference Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the sealing cover 13 defines a second recess 13a that opens toward the central portion 122. The central portion 122 extends at least partially into the second recess 13a, and the projection of the central portion 122 onto the plane containing the opening of the second recess 13a lies within the opening of the second recess 13a.
[0093] This arrangement shortens the distance between the middle section 122 and the sealing cover 13, reduces the space occupied by the door assembly 100, and thus improves the space utilization of the clothing processing equipment 300.
[0094] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the sealing cover 13 is made of a transparent material, and the middle part 122 is a visible part. That is, the user can observe the interior of the clothing processing device 300 through the middle part 122.
[0095] This design allows users to clearly observe the interior of the garment processing device 300 through the middle section 122. Since the projection of the middle section 122 onto the plane of the opening of the second cavity 13a is located within the opening of the second cavity 13a, the structure of the door assembly 100 can be made more regular. This ensures that when users observe the processing of garments in the garment processing device 300, they will not observe any other structures of the inner door 11 besides the sealing cover 13, thus improving the user's visual experience.
[0096] Additionally, refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7Since the light guide 212 extends circumferentially along the middle part 212, it can uniformly guide the light emitted by the light-emitting body 211 to the circumferential direction of the middle part 122, thereby achieving a uniform display or lighting effect at the middle part 122 and providing the middle part 122 with no dead angle lighting. In this way, even in a dark environment, the user can still observe the specific condition of the clothes in the clothing processing device 300 through the middle part 122.

[0099] The device body 40 also has a clothing processing chamber 40b. When the clothing processing device 300 needs to process clothing, the user can rotate the door assembly 100 to open the clothing loading and unloading port 40a, put the clothing from the clothing loading and unloading port 40a into the clothing processing chamber 40b, and then rotate the door assembly 100 to close the clothing loading and unloading port 40a. In this way, the clothing processing device 300 can be used to process clothing. When the clothing processing device 300 has finished processing the clothing, the user can rotate the door assembly 100 to open the clothing loading and unloading port 40a and take the clothing out of the clothing processing chamber 40b. Finally, rotate the door assembly 100 to close the clothing loading and unloading port 40a.
[0100] According to the clothing processing device 300 of the present utility model embodiment, by setting the door assembly 100 as the door assembly 100 of the clothing processing device of any of the above embodiments, not only can the user observe the clothing processing situation inside the clothing processing device 300, but also the strong anti-deformation ability of the door assembly 100 can reduce the probability of deformation or damage of the door assembly 100 when the user opens the clothing loading and unloading port 40a, thereby enhancing the durability of the clothing processing device 300.
