Therefore, they should not be taken as limiting this disclosure. The terms "inner", "outer" refer to the inner and outer sides of the corresponding structure contour. Moreover, it should be noted that the terms such as "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish one element from another, and they do not follow one another or are important.In the description of the present invention, it is also pointed out that the terms such as "arranged", "connected", "connected", "mounted", unless expressly stated otherwise and restricted, are to be understood broadly, e.g. they can be fixedly connected, detachably connected or integrally connected, either directly or indirectly via an intermediate medium. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art from case to case.As mentioned above, the question of how to house the laundry drum and other components in the confined space inside the clothes washing apparatus has become a focus of research.In view of the above, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 4, the present invention provides a clothes washing apparatus including a box body 30, a first cylinder 10, and a second cylinder 20, wherein the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 are disposed in the box body 30, and the first cylinder 10 is disposed on top of the second cylinder 20, and the height H 1 of the box body 30 is greater than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm.In the above clothes washing apparatus, the box body 30 may be used as a case of the clothes washing apparatus, and the box body 30 may be used to house various components within the clothes washing apparatus, and is also capable of providing support and attachment for some of the components (e.g., washing cylinders, etc.) within the clothes washing apparatus.In the above clothes washing apparatus, the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 may be used to hold the laundry items to be washed, and depending on the configuration of the clothes washing apparatus, the laundry items to be washed held in the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 are subjected to washing, drying, and other operations.By the above technical solution in which the height H 1 of the box body 30 is set to more than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm, it is possible to provide the box body with an appropriate internal space that not only enables the first cylinder 10, the second cylinder 20, and the other components to be disposed and installed inside the box body 30, but also makes the clothes washing apparatus have a larger capacity for treating laundry. For example, a user may optionally use the first cylinder 10 or the second cylinder 20 for laundry treatment, or use both the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 for laundry treatment.Moreover, the higher box body 30 can provide a larger arrangement space for the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, so that the diameters of the cylinders of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be made larger, which contributes to increase the capacity of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 and to improve the washing ratio of the clothes washing apparatus.In addition, the height H 1 of the above box body 30 may be set to more than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm. In the present invention, as compared with the case body 30 used in the related art, by appropriately increasing the height H 1 of the case body 30, it is possible to increase the distance between the center of the first cylinder 10 and the center of the second cylinder 20 in the height direction of the case body 30 and decrease the distance between the center of the first cylinder 10 and the center of the second cylinder 20 in the width direction (left-right direction) of the case body 30, thereby it is advantageous to balance the weight of the clothes washing apparatus while avoiding interference between the cylinder door of the first cylinder 10 (hereinafter referred to as the first cylinder door) and the cylinder door of the second cylinder 20 (hereinafter referred to as the second cylinder door), and it is advantageous to balance the weight of the clothes washing apparatus, reducing vibration of the clothes washing device during operation.Moreover, the height value in the range of more than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm is not too large, which can improve the compactness of the clothes washer without interfering with the installation of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, which promotes the placement of the clothes washer in a narrower space and also promotes the improvement of the comfort of the clothes washer in the handling process.Note that the washing ratio is an index for judging the washing effect of the washing machine, and the larger the washing ratio, the better the washing effect.In the present invention, each of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 may be a drying cylinder, a washing cylinder, or a washing and drying cylinder.When the first cylinder 10 is a washing cylinder, the first cylinder 10 may have, for example, a washing function such that the first cylinder 10 is capable of washing the objects to be washed in the first cylinder 10.When the first cylinder 10 is a washing and drying cylinder, the first cylinder 10 may have both a washing function and a drying function that allows the first cylinder 10 to wash and dry the objects to be washed inside the first cylinder 10.When the second cylinder 20 is a washing cylinder, the second cylinder 20 may have a washing function that allows the second cylinder 20 to wash the objects to be washed in the second cylinder 20.When the second cylinder 20 is a washing and drying cylinder, the second cylinder 20 may have both a washing function and a drying function, and the second cylinder 20 is capable of washing and drying the objects to be washed in the second cylinder 20.By the combination of the functions of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, the above clothes washing apparatus can have the functions of separately washing (for example, one of the drums is used for washing upper clothes and the other drum is used for washing inner clothes such as undergarment and the like, etc.), separately drying, or washing and drying as a whole.Optionally, two first cylinders 10 may be provided that are located at appropriate positions within the box body 30, for example, the two first cylinders 10 may be disposed at the left oblique upper part of the second cylinder 20 and the right oblique upper part of the second cylinder 20, respectively. With such setting, the washing function of the clothes washing apparatus can be further improved.The present invention also does not limit the structure of the box body 30, which may be a one-piece molded box body 30 or a box body 30 made of a plurality of boards joined together. As shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the box body 30 comprises a front plate 31 and a rear plate 32 spaced in a front-rear direction along its own, a left side plate 33 and a right side plate 34 spaced in a left-right direction along its own, and a top plate 35 and a bottom plate 36 spaced in an up-down direction along its own. Among them, the openings of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 are provided on the front panel 31, which makes it possible to insert and remove the things to be washed by the front panel 31, and makes the clothes washing apparatus more aesthetically pleasing.Moreover, the front plate 31 (i.e., the front side plate), the rear plate 32, the left side plate 33, the right side plate 34, the top plate 35, and the bottom plate 36 may collectively enclose a space for mounting the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20. Here, the front plate 31 is the front side plate of the box body 30, and the front plate 31, the rear plate 32, the left side plate 33, the right side plate 34, the top plate 35 and the bottom plate 36 are capable of performing a protecting function for the members disposed inside the box body 30.Optionally, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the front plate 31 of the box body 30 is provided with a first receiving hole 11 and a second receiving hole 21, the first receiving hole 11 being connected to an open opening of the first cylinder 10 and the second receiving hole 21 being connected to an open opening of the second cylinder 20. An angle θ between a line connecting the center of the first accommodation hole 11 and the center of the second accommodation hole 21 and the horizontal direction is greater than 0° and less than 90°.When the angle θ between the connecting line between the center of the first receiving opening 11 and the center of the second receiving opening 21 and the horizontal direction is greater than 0° and less than 90°, this means that the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 are arranged offset in the height direction and in the left and right direction (in the width direction) of the clothes washing apparatus, which contributes to the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 being arranged at an appropriate position in the box body 30.Optionally, an angle θ between a line connecting the center of the first accommodation hole 11 and the center of the second accommodation hole 21 to the horizontal direction may be set to 60°- 8950. Optionally, the angle θ may be set to 60°- 70°, and set to form a large accommodation space for other components (e.g., the electronic control board, the drying mechanism, etc.) in the clothes washing apparatus when the box body 30 is disposed with the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20.In addition, it is possible to have an appropriate distance between the center of the first receiving hole 11 and the center of the second receiving hole 21 in the left-right direction of the box body 30, and it is also possible to have an appropriate distance between the center of the first receiving hole 11 and the center of the second receiving hole 21 in the height direction of the box body 30. This is conducive to, on the one hand, balancing the weight of the clothes washer, on the other hand, being conducive to reducing vibrations during operation of the clothes washer, and, on the other hand, being conducive to reducing or avoiding interference between the first pipe door corresponding to the first receiving opening 11 and the second pipe door corresponding to the second receiving opening 21, reducing or avoiding the interference of the first cylinder door with the second receiving opening 21, and reducing the interference of the second cylinder door with the first receiving opening 11.For example, the angle θ between the connecting line between the center of the first receiving hole 11 and the center of the second receiving hole 21 and the horizontal direction may be 60° to 70°. Such adjustment contributes to further balancing the weight of the clothes washing apparatus, further reducing the vibrations during operation of the clothes washing apparatus, further reducing or avoiding the interference of the first cylinder door corresponding to the first receiving opening 11 and the second cylinder door corresponding to the second receiving opening 21, and further reducing or avoiding the interference between the first cylinder door and the second cylinder door, while simultaneously ensuring that the structure of the clothes washing apparatus is compact, reducing or avoiding the interference of the first cylinder door by the second receiving opening 21, and reducing the interference of the second cylinder door by the first receiving opening 11.Moreover, in consideration of the limited space of the box body 30 in the range of the angle θ of 60°-70°, more space can be provided for the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 while securing the balance of the box body 30, thereby increasing the volume of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 and improving the washing ratio of the clothes washing apparatus (i.e., the washing machine).Optionally, as shown in FIG. 3, the first cylinder 10 is disposed laterally above the second cylinder 20, and the front plate 31 of the box body 30 is provided with a first receiving hole 11 and a second receiving hole 21, the first receiving hole 11 being connected to the open hole of the first cylinder 10. The second receiving hole 21 is connected to the open hole of the second cylinder 20, and a height H 2 at the lower side of the first receiving hole 11 may be greater than a height H 3 at the upper side of the second receiving hole 21.Since the height H2 of the bottom of the first receiving opening 11 is set to be larger than the height H3 of the top of the second receiving opening 21, it is useful to reduce or avoid interference between the first cylinder door corresponding to the first receiving opening 11 and the second cylinder door corresponding to the second receiving opening 21, and it is also useful to reduce or avoid interference of the second receiving opening 21 with the first cylinder door, and interference of the first receiving opening 11 with the second cylinder door to facilitate the use of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 by the user, such as the picking and putting down of clothes and the cleaning of walls of the cylinders, etc.Optionally, the first cylinder door and the second cylinder door are disposed on the box body 30, e.g., on the front plate 31 of the box body 30, the first cylinder door is used to block or open the first receiving opening 11, thereby blocking or opening the open opening of the first cylinder 10, and the second cylinder door is used to block or opening the second receiving opening 21, thereby blocking or opening the open opening of the second cylinder 20, and the bottom of the first cylinder door is higher than the top of the second cylinder door.Since the lower surface of the first cylinder door is higher than the upper surface of the second cylinder door, the first cylinder door does not interfere with the second cylinder door nor block the second receiving hole 21 when folding, and also the second cylinder door does not interfere with the first cylinder door nor block the first receiving hole 11 when folding, so that it is more convenient for the user to use the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20.Optionally, the height H 4 of the bottom of the first cylinder 10 may be greater than the height H 3 of the top of the second receiving opening 21, and the height H 4 of the bottom of the first cylinder 10 is less than the height of the top of the second cylinder 20. For example, a vibration damping member having a larger size but a better vibration damping effect may be arranged, or a larger number of vibration damping members may be arranged, thereby promoting reduction in transmission of vibrations between the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20.The height H 4 of the lower surface of the first cylinder 10 is smaller than the height of the upper surface of the second cylinder 20, and thus it is possible to make the arrangement of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 inside the box body 30 meaningful while avoiding the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 from interfering with each other, so that the first cylinder 10 has a longer size along the height direction (e.g., vertical direction) of the box body 30. The longer dimension of the first cylinder 20 may have a larger volume, which may allow the first cylinder 20 to accommodate a certain volume of items to be washed, satisfy the washing need of the first cylinder 20, and improve the washing ratio.In the present invention, it is understood that the bottom surface of the first cylinder 10 may be an outer bottom surface of the outer cylinder of the first cylinder 10 (i.e., an outer bottom surface of the outer cylinder of the first cylinder 10 on a side opposite from the top plate 35). The upper surface of the second cylinder 20 may be an outer upper surface of the outer cylinder of the second cylinder 20 (i.e., an outer upper surface of the outer cylinder of the second cylinder 20 on a side of the second cylinder 20 near the top plate 35).In the present invention, an appropriate height of the box body 30 may be selected within a range of more than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm according to actual needs, and in one embodiment, the height H 1 of the box body 30 may be more than 1050 mm and less than 1200 mm. A box body 30 having a height within the range can provide a larger arrangement space for the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, on the one hand, so that the diameter of the cylinders of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be made larger, which contributes to increase the capacity of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 and also contributes to increase the washing / cleaning ratio of the clothes washing apparatus. On the other hand, the angle between the connecting line between the center of the first cylinder 10 and the center of the second cylinder 20 (i.e., the line between the center of the first receiving hole 11 and the center of the second receiving hole 21) and the horizontal direction can be further increased. Thereby, it is advantageous to further increase the ratio of the overlap of the protrusions of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 in the horizontal plane, thereby facilitating further balancing of the weight of the clothes washer and reducing the vibration during the operation of the clothes washer while avoiding interference between the first door of the first cylinder 10 and the second door of the second cylinder 20.Moreover, the height of the box body 30 within more than 1050 mm and less than 1200 mm also facilitates the distance between the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 to be farther away from each other, which facilitates installation of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 within the box body 30, and the relatively wide inner space of the box body 30 also facilitates installation and maintenance of the components therein.In the present invention, an appropriate height of the box body 30 may be selected in a range of more than 900 mm and less than 1200 mm according to actual needs, and as another embodiment, the height H 1 of the box body 30 may be more than 900 mm and less than 1050 mm. A box body 30 having a height within this range can provide a good arrangement space for the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, while the box body has a good compactness. On the one hand, it is thus possible to prevent the case body 30 from taking up too much space in the vertical direction, which is convenient for the user in wearing or replacing the clothes washing apparatus, and on the other hand, it is thus possible to reduce the material required for manufacturing the case body 30, resulting in a cost reduction. On the other hand, the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be arranged in a more compact manner, which allows the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 to use the heat of the other during drying, thereby promoting reduction in energy consumption of the clothes washing apparatus.Optionally, as shown in FIG. 4, the front plate 31 of the box body 30 is provided with a first receiving hole 11 and a second receiving hole 21, the first receiving hole 11 is connected to the open hole of the first cylinder 10 and the second receiving hole 21 is connected to the open hole of the second cylinder 20, the bottom of the first receiving hole 11 being at a height H2 not greater than the top of the second receiving hole 21 at a height H3. That is, the protrusions of the first receiving hole 11 and the second receiving hole 21 have overlapping portions in the left-right direction of the box body 30. Such adjustment enables the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 to make better use of the space in the vertical direction in the box body 30, so that the diameters of the cylinders of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be made larger, which contributes to increase the capacity of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 and also contributes to increase the washing ratio of the clothes washing apparatus.The present invention limits the size of the first cylinder 10 and the invention, the diameter of the first cylinder 10 is 150 mm to 200 mm, and / or the diameter of the second cylinder 20 is 500 mm to 570 mm. Since the diameter of the second cylinder 20 is larger than the diameter of the first cylinder 10, it may be possible that the capacity of the second cylinder 20 is larger than the capacity of the first cylinder 10, so that the smaller diameter of the first cylinder 10 can provide a larger installation space for the second cylinder 20, so that the second cylinder 20 can meet the demand for a large capacity. Moreover, both the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be allowed to have a good washing ratio, thereby allowing a smaller size of the clothes washing apparatus when both the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 have a good functionality.For example, the second cylinder 20 may be a main washing cylinder that can be used for washing adult or upper clothes, and the first cylinder 10 may be a small washing cylinder that can be used for washing intimate undergarments or infant clothes.In an embodiment in which the first cylinder 10 is located laterally above the second cylinder 20, i.e. in which the first cylinder 10 is located above the second cylinder 20 and is arranged offset from the second cylinder 20 in the width direction of the clothes washing device, it is possible for the first cylinder 10 to be arranged laterally above the second cylinder 20. In other words, the second cylinder 20 can be disposed below the side of the first cylinder 10, and by disposing the second cylinder 20 having a larger mass below the side of the first cylinder 10 having a smaller mass, the overall center of gravity of the clothes washing apparatus can be lowered, which contributes to improving the stability of the washing machine.In the present invention, the distance from the center of the first cylinder 10 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 is not limited, and in an embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4, the distance L 1 from the center of the first cylinder 10 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 is 670 mm to 1000 mm. With such setting, it is possible to provide the bottom plate 36 with an appropriate distance between the bottom plate 36 and the first cylinder 10 to improve space utilization of the clothes washer and improve compactness of the clothes washer without hindering arrangement and installation of the second cylinder 20 and other components in the box body 30, so that the clothes washer is smaller in size.For example, the distance L 1 from the center of the first cylinder 10 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 may be 730 mm to 1000 mm, and further, the distance L 1 from the center of the first cylinder 10 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 may be 810 mm to 1000 mm. In this way, the space utilization of the clothes washing apparatus can be further improved, and the compactness of the clothes washing apparatus is further improved.In the present invention, the distance from the center of the second cylinder 20 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 is not limited, and in an embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4, the distance L 2 from the center of the second cylinder 20 to the bottom plate 36 of the box body 30 is 470 mm to 535 mm.
