[0044] The following describes in detail the embodiments of the present application, examples of which are shown in the drawings, in which the same or similar reference numerals throughout refer to the same or similar elements, or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described with reference to the following drawings are illustrative and are used only for the purpose of illustrating the present application, and should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0045] Hereinafter, an inserting apparatus 100 and a garment processing device according to an embodiment of the present application will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0046] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, an input device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application includes an input case 10 and a sterilization component 20, where the input case 10 defines a water supply chamber 1230 and an input chamber 130, the water supply chamber 1230 and the input chamber 130 are connected to each other, the input chamber 130 is used to input a cleaning agent, and the sterilization component 20 is provided in the water supply chamber 1230.

[0047] During operation, the water supply valve is opened, and water flows into the water supply chamber 1230 of the input device 100. The water entering the water supply chamber 1230 hits the sterilization component 20, allowing the water to have a sterilizing function. The water with sterilizing function flows out of the water supply chamber 1230 and enters the input chamber 130, and mixes with the cleaning agent in the input chamber 130, allowing the water to have the functions of sterilization, cleaning, etc., and is used for cleaning.

[0048] According to the dosing device 100 of the embodiment of the present application, by providing a sterilizing component 20 in the water supply chamber 1230, a sterilizing water flow can be formed, and the sterilizing water flow can be mixed with the detergent, that is, by supplying water through a single pipeline, the sterilizing substance is released and then the detergent is diluted and mixed. This has a simple structure and low cost, and can not only effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, but also remove dirt and ensure the degree of cleaning. Compared with the related art, this avoids a complicated water supply pipeline structure and makes effective use of the space in the dosing case 10.

[0049] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, according to some embodiments of the present application, the sterilizing component 20 is rotatably mounted in the water supply chamber 1230, so that the water can be in sufficient contact with the sterilizing component 20, and the sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions of the water are greatly improved.

[0050] Here, a plurality of blades 2112 are provided on the outer peripheral wall of the sterilizing component 20, and the plurality of blades 2112 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral wall of the sterilizing component 20. During operation, water entering the water supply chamber 1230 collides with the plurality of blades 2112, thereby driving the sterilizing component 20 to roll, and the water is in sufficient contact with the sterilizing component 20.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 6 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the sterilizing component 20 includes a housing 21 and sterilizing granules 22, the housing 21 has a water-passing chamber 2101 and a plurality of water-passing holes 2102, the water-passing holes 2102 can communicate the water-passing chamber 2101 and the water supply chamber 1230, and the sterilizing granules 22 are provided in the water-passing chamber 2101.

[0052] Specifically, the water entering the water supply chamber 1230 flows into the water passage chamber 2101 through the multiple water passage holes 2102, and the water entering the water passage chamber 2101 comes into sufficient contact with the sterilizing granules 22, so that the water can have a sterilizing function, and the sterilizing water in the water passage chamber 2101 flows into the water supply chamber 1230 through the multiple water passage holes 2102, and can also enter the input chamber 130, mix with the cleaning agent in the input chamber 130, and be used for cleaning.

[0053] 6, in some embodiments, a plurality of blades 2112 are provided on the outer circumferential wall of the housing 21, and the plurality of blades 2112 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the outer circumferential wall of the housing 21. During operation, the water entering the water supply chamber 1230 collides with the blades 2112 on the housing 21, driving the housing 21 to roll, and when the housing 21 rolls, it causes the displacement and friction of the sterilizing granules 22 in the water-passing chamber 2101, so that the solid sterilizing granules 22 can be rapidly released, and the sterilizing granules 22 are thoroughly mixed with the water, so that the water has sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions.

[0054] As shown in FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the water flow chamber 2101 is provided with a lifter 2111 on its wall.

[0055] In some specific embodiments, the number of lifters 2111 may be one, which extends along the axial direction of the housing 21. When the housing 21 rolls, the height of the sterilizing granules 22 can be increased when the lifter 2111 moves upward. As the housing 21 continues to roll, the sterilizing granules 22 are thrown by gravity, and collisions and friction occur between the housing 21, causing the solid sterilizing granules 22 to be rapidly released, and the sterilizing granules 22 are thoroughly mixed with water, so that the water has sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions.

[0056] In some other specific embodiments, the lifter 2111 may include multiple lifters 2111, the multiple lifters 2111 being spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the peripheral wall of the housing 21, with each lifter 2111 extending along the axial direction of the housing 21. By providing multiple lifters 2111, the multiple lifters 2111 can be used to lift the sterilizing granules 22, and the frequency of collision and friction between the sterilizing granules 22 and the housing 21 can be further accelerated.

[0057] In some embodiments, the housing 21 is a transparent part. By providing the housing 21 as a transparent part, the visibility of the sterilization function is improved, and the user can observe the rolling state of the sterilization granules 22 through the housing 21, so as to not only add the sterilization granules 22 in a timely manner according to the need, but also form an intuitive feeling about the sterilization function, thereby improving the user's reliability and usage experience.

[0058] In some specific embodiments, the input device 100 further includes a light-emitting component (not shown in the drawings), which can illuminate the inside of the housing 21 to make the sterilization function more directly visible.

[0059] As shown in Figures 6 and 12, in some embodiments, the housing 21 includes a rotating case 211 and a rotating lid 212, the rotating case 211 has both ends, one end of the rotating case 211 is open, and the rotating lid 212 is provided at the opening of the rotating case 211 so as to close the opening of the rotating case 211, and when the rotating lid 212 and the rotating case 211 are properly fitted together, the rotating lid 212 and the rotating case 211 define a water-passing chamber 2101, and a plurality of water-passing holes 2102 are provided in the rotating case 211 and / or the rotating lid 212.

[0060] When the sterilizing component 20 is installed in the water supply chamber 1230, the other end of the rotating case 211 rollably engages with one side wall of the water supply chamber 1230, and the rotating cover 212 rollably engages with the other side wall of the water supply chamber 1230, i.e., both ends of the housing 21 of the sterilizing component 20 rollably engage with two relatively provided side walls of the water supply chamber 1230, ensuring that the housing 21 can roll within the water supply chamber 1230.

[0061] During operation, the water entering the water supply chamber 1230 collides with the multiple blades 2112 in the housing 21, driving the housing 21 to rotate. When the housing 21 rolls, it causes the displacement of the sterilizing granules 22, and collisions and friction may occur between the housing 21 and the sterilizing granules 22. During this process, the water in the water supply chamber 1230 can enter the water passing chamber 2101 through the multiple water passing holes 2102. When the water and the sterilizing granules 22 are thoroughly mixed, the water has sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions, and the water with sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions can flow from the multiple water passing holes 2102 to the water supply chamber 1230, and finally enters the input chamber 130 to mix with the cleaning agent and be used for cleaning.

[0062] 5 to 9, according to some embodiments of the present application, the input case 10 defines a water supply passage 101, which communicates with a water supply inlet 111 and a water supply chamber 1230, and water flows from the water supply inlet 111 through the water supply passage 101 into the water supply chamber 1230 to be thoroughly mixed with the sterilizing component 20. Here, the water supply inlet 111 can be directly connected to a water supply valve to allow water to flow into the water supply chamber 1230, or the water supply inlet 111 can be connected to the water supply valve via a pipe.

[0063] As a result, by providing a water supply passage 101 in the input case 10, it is convenient for the water supply chamber 1230 to communicate with the water supply port 111, and the shape and structure of the water supply passage 101 can be designed based on needs, resulting in a wide range of applications.

[0064] In addition, the input case 10 further defines a drainage flow path 102, which communicates between the water supply chamber 1230 and the input chamber 130. The water in the water supply chamber 1230 enters the water passage chamber 2101 through the multiple water passage holes 2102, and the water and the sterilizing granules 22 are sufficiently mixed, so that the water has sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions, and the water having sterilizing and bacteriostatic functions flows from the multiple water passage holes 2102 to the water supply chamber 1230, enters the input chamber 130 through the drainage flow path 102, and can be mixed with the cleaning agent and used for cleaning.

[0065] As a result, by providing a drainage passage 102 in the input case 10, it is convenient for the water supply chamber 1230 and the input chamber 130 to communicate with each other, and the shape and structure of the drainage passage 102 can be designed according to needs, and the range of applications is wide.

[0066] As shown in FIG. 5 , in some embodiments, the input case 10 further defines a distribution chamber 103, and the drainage passage 102 and the input chamber 130 are connected through the distribution chamber 103, where the distribution chamber 103 is located above the input chamber 130, and a plurality of injection holes 1221 are provided on the bottom wall of the distribution chamber 103, and the injection holes 1221 connect the distribution chamber 103 and the input chamber 130.

[0067] Specifically, the water having sterilizing function in the water supply chamber 1230 can flow through the drainage passage 102 to the distribution chamber 103, and the distribution chamber 103 is located above the input chamber 130. Therefore, the water in the distribution chamber 103 can flow downward through the injection hole 1221 to the input chamber 130, thereby mixing with the cleaning agent in the input chamber 130 and being used for cleaning.

[0068] By providing a distribution chamber 103 above the input chamber 130, the flow of water having a sterilizing function is led into the designated input chamber 130 to mix with the cleaning agent in the designated input chamber 130, resulting in a simple structure and low cost.

[0069] In some specific embodiments, the distribution chambers 103 and input chambers 130 are equal in number and have a one-to-one correspondence in location.

[0070] For example, the number of distribution chambers 103 and input chambers 130 may be one each, and the distribution chamber 103 may be located directly above the input chamber 130, and water entering the distribution chamber 103 may flow downward through the multiple injection holes 1221 due to gravity, thereby flowing into the input chamber 130.

[0071] For example, the number of the distribution chambers 103 and the input chambers 130 may be two each. Specifically, as shown in the drawing, the distribution chamber 103 includes a first distribution chamber 103 located on the left side and a second distribution chamber 103 located on the right side, and correspondingly, the input chamber 130 includes a first input chamber 130 located on the left side and a second input chamber 130 located on the right side, and the first distribution chamber 103 is located directly above the first input chamber 130, and the second distribution chamber 103 is located on the right side. Located directly above the second input chamber 130, water in the water supply chamber 1230 can enter the first distribution chamber 103 through the drain passage 102 and then flow downward into the first input chamber 130 through a plurality of injection holes 1221 in the bottom wall of the first distribution chamber 103, and can also enter the second distribution chamber 103 through the drain passage 102 and then flow downward into the second input chamber 130 through a plurality of injection holes 1221 in the bottom wall of the second distribution chamber 103.

[0072] Of course, the number of the distribution chambers 103 and the input chambers 130 may be multiple (three or more), and the layout of the multiple distribution chambers 103 and the multiple input chambers 130 may be designed according to specific circumstances, and the description will be omitted here.
