Heating module, drying module and clothing processing equipment

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This disclosure claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202311136296.5 filed on August 31, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a heating module, a drying module and a clothing processing device. Background Art

[0004] With improved living standards, many household appliances with drying functions have emerged, greatly improving people's lives. In household appliances that utilize dehumidifiers with heating and desorption properties, such as molecular sieves, as dehumidification modules, dry air passes over the object to be dried, removing moisture from the object and becoming high-humidity air. This high-humidity air then passes through the dehumidification module, where it absorbs moisture and becomes dry air again, which is then returned to the object to be dried for dehumidification. A heating module then extracts moisture from the dehumidification module, completing the drying cycle.

[0005] However, the structure and assembly of the existing heating module are relatively complicated, and the coordination between the heating module and the dehumidification module is also relatively complicated.

[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 1, the clothing processing device includes a drying module 10, a clothing processing drum 20 and a mounting plate 30. The clothing processing drum 20 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air outlet of the drying module 10 is connected to the air inlet of the clothing processing drum 20, and the air inlet of the drying module 10 is connected to the air outlet of the clothing processing drum 20, so that the gas in the clothing processing drum 20 is continuously dehydrated through the drying module 10, thereby achieving the purpose of drying the clothes in the clothing processing drum 20.

[0068] In one embodiment, the drying module 10 is disposed above the laundry treatment drum 20 and is disposed in correspondence with the mounting plate 30. The mounting plate 30 may be the upper housing of the laundry treatment device. A heat insulating layer may be disposed on the side of the mounting plate 30 facing the drying module 10. The heat reflecting direction of the heat insulating layer is disposed toward the drying module 10. The heat insulating layer may be insulating foam or aluminum foil. The heat insulating layer and the drying module 10 may be disposed in correspondence to each other to insulate the mounting plate 30. The drying module 10 is connected to the mounting plate 30 and is assembled into the laundry treatment device via the mounting plate 30. The laundry treatment drum 20 may include a drum and an outer drum, or may be a washing machine without an outer drum, etc., which is not limited in this disclosure.

[0069] As shown in Figures 2 to 5, the drying module 10 includes a heating module 100 and a dehumidification module 200. The air outlet of the dehumidification module 200 is connected to the air inlet of the clothing treatment drum 20, and the air inlet of the dehumidification module 200 is connected to the air outlet of the clothing treatment drum 20, so as to continuously adsorb the moisture in the gas in the clothing treatment drum 20 through the dehumidification module 200; the heating module 100 can heat the airflow and / or the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, and the heated airflow passes through the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 in the dehumidification module 200 to dehumidify and dehydrate the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, so that the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 has the ability to absorb moisture again; during the rotation of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, it passes through the dehumidification area of ​​the dehumidification module 200 and the dehydration area of ​​the heating module 100, and continuously performs a cycle of adsorbing and desorbing moisture, thereby achieving the purpose of drying the moisture of the clothes in the clothing treatment drum 20. As shown in FIG. 5 , the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 may be a turntable, which can be rotated to pass through the dehumidification area of ​​the dehumidification module 200 and the dehydration area of ​​the heating module 100 .

[0070] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 to 9, the heating module 100 includes: a shell 110 and a heating component, the shell 110 includes a protrusion 114, the protrusion is protruded from the surface of the shell 110, and the protrusion 114 is used to abut and assemble with an external element; the heating component includes a heater 120, and the heater 120 is arranged in the accommodating space.

[0071] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 to 9, the heating module 100 also includes: a main body portion 111, a side wall portion 112 and a mounting portion 113 of an integrally molded structure, the protrusion 114 and the main body portion 111, the side wall portion 112 and the mounting portion 113 can be an integrally molded structure, the side wall portion 112 is located at the edge of the main body portion 111 and extends toward one side of the main body portion 111, the side wall portion 112 and the main body portion 111 are enclosed to form a accommodating space with an open end 115, and an air inlet connected to the open end 115 is provided on the side wall; the mounting portion 113 is connected to the side of the side wall portion 112 away from the main body portion 111, and extends toward the periphery of the side wall portion 112; the shell 110 is an integrally molded component; the protrusion 114 is connected to the mounting portion 113, and extends toward the mounting portion 113 away from the main body portion 111.

[0072] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 9 , the heating assembly further includes a thermostat 130 , the heater 120 is connected to the thermostat 130 , and the thermostat 130 is disposed on the body 111 or the sidewall 112 or the mounting portion 113 .

[0073] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 to 9, the shell 110 is an integrally molded structure, that is, the main body 111, the side wall 112, the mounting portion 113 and the protrusion 114 are an integrally molded structure; the shell 110 includes multiple mounting areas, and the multiple mounting areas are equipped with at least one of the temperature controller 130, the heater 120 and the thermal insulation seal 300. By making the main body 111, side wall 112, mounting portion 113 and protrusion 114 of the shell 110 an integrally formed structure, the heater 120 is arranged in the accommodating space, and the thermostat 130 is arranged on at least one of the main body 111, side wall 112 and mounting portion 113; the shell 110 includes multiple assembly areas for fixing the heater 120, the thermostat 130 and the thermal insulation part, etc., and there is no need to set up various sealing structures to place components, and there are fewer openings, which simplifies the structure and assembly of the entire heating module 100, ensures the overall sealing of the heating module 100, and at the same time, the protrusion 114 can simplify the sealing connection between the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200.

[0074] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the shell 110 of the heating module 100 is roughly fan-shaped, that is, along the radial direction of the fan, the arc length of the end of the heating module 100 close to the rotation center of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is smaller than the arc length away from the rotation center of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250.

[0075] In one embodiment, the main body portion 111 located on the top surface is fan-shaped; the side wall portion 112 surrounds the main body portion 111, and an air inlet of the heating module 100 is formed on the side wall portion 112 located on the outer arc surface of the fan. The gas to be heated is fed into the shell 110 through the air inlet. After the gas is heated by the heater 120 in the shell 110, it passes through the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, takes away the moisture in the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, and realizes the desorption of moisture in the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250.

[0076] By making the shell 110 of the heating module 100 fan-shaped, when the heating module 100 cooperates with the dehumidification module 200, facing the circular moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200 can cover the surface of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 as much as possible, so that as much as possible or even all of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is located in the dehumidification area formed by the dehumidification module 200 and the dehydration area formed by the heating module 100, thereby relatively improving the drying capacity of the clothes in the clothes processing drum 20.

[0077] Among them, the shell 110 of the heating module 100 is fan-shaped, and the air inlet of the heating module 100 is formed on the side wall portion 112 located on the outer arc surface of the fan. The direction in which the heated gas enters the accommodating cavity is different from the rotation direction of the dehumidification component 250, which can make the heating gas have a higher flow rate relative to the dehumidification component 250, thereby improving the desorption effect of the heating gas on the moisture in the dehumidification component 250.

[0078] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 9 and 11, the housing 110 further includes a support member 117, which is located in the accommodating space and is integrally formed with the main body 111. The support member 117 is configured to support the heater 120. By integrally forming the support member 117 with the main body 111, the housing 110 formed by integral molding has an assembly area for the heater 120, which simplifies the structure and assembly of the heating module 100, avoids opening holes in the housing 110 to support and secure the heater 120, and further ensures the sealing of the housing 110.

[0079] Of course, the support member 117 and the shell 110 can also be a separate structure. The support member 117 is located in the accommodating space, one end of the support member 117 is connected to the main body 111, and the other end supports the heater 120.

[0080] In one embodiment, the support member 117 is formed of a thermally insulating material to prevent excessive heat transfer to the housing 110 and / or the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250, thereby preventing overheating of the housing 110 and / or excessively high temperatures in the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250. The present disclosure does not limit the thermally insulating material, as long as it can also provide support.

[0081] In one embodiment, a blind hole 116 is formed in at least one of the body 111, the sidewall 112, and the mounting portion 113. The thermostat 130 is disposed in the blind hole 116. The blind hole 116 may be recessed toward the accommodating space and / or toward the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250, so that the thermostat 130 is disposed close to the heater 120. By forming the blind hole 116 recessed toward the accommodating space in the body 111, the sidewall 112, or the mounting portion 113, the thermostat 130 can be accommodated and assembled, avoiding the need for a separate fixing structure. The thermostat 130 assembly area is directly formed on the integrally formed housing 110, simplifying the structure and assembly of the heating module 100, avoiding the need for holes in the housing 110 to support and fix the thermostat 130, and further ensuring the sealing of the housing 110. Of course, a through hole with a bottom passing through may also be formed on the main body 111 or the side wall 112 or the mounting portion 113 , that is, a blind hole with a bottom passing through, and this application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0082] As shown in FIG8 to FIG10 , two blind holes 116 are formed on the mounting portion 113 by integral molding. A thermostat 130 is respectively disposed in the two blind holes 116 , and the two thermostats 130 are respectively connected to the heater 120 .

[0083] The sidewall thickness of the blind hole 116 is smaller than that of the mounting portion 113. By making the sidewall thickness of the blind hole 116 smaller than that of the mounting portion 113, i.e., by thinning the sidewall of the blind hole 116, heat in the accommodating cavity can be better transferred to the blind hole 116, thereby making the temperature in the accommodating cavity obtained by the thermostat 130 more accurate and enabling more timely acquisition of temperature changes in the accommodating space, thereby improving the control accuracy of the heating temperature of the heater 120 and ultimately improving the moisture desorption effect of the heated gas on the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250.

[0084] The diameter and depth of the blind hole 116 can be set according to the shape and size of the thermostat 130 so as to enable assembly of the stabilizer.

[0085] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG11 , a heat conducting portion 118 is provided on the outer circumference of the sidewall of blind hole 116, extending toward heater 120. Blind hole 116 is located within the accommodating cavity, and heat within the accommodating cavity can be transferred to thermostat 130 through the sidewall of blind hole 116. By providing heat conducting portion 118 on the outer circumference of the sidewall of blind hole 116, heat within the accommodating cavity can be transferred to the sidewall of blind hole 116 via heat conducting portion 118, thereby accelerating heat transfer efficiency. Furthermore, heat conducting portion 118 evens out heat conduction, stabilizing the temperature detected by thermostat 130. This improves the accuracy of detection results and avoids frequent fluctuations in detection results caused by turbulent heated gas flow within the accommodating space.

[0086] The heat conducting portion 118 can be a solid or hollow structure; the heat conducting portion 118 can be integrally formed on the housing 110, i.e., it can be made of the same material as the sidewalls of the blind hole 116, such as aluminum alloy. The heat conducting portion 118 and the sidewalls of the blind hole 116 are made of the same material, which ensures efficient heat transfer between the heat conducting portion 118 and the sidewalls of the blind hole 116. Of course, the heat conducting portion 118 can be a separate structure connected to the sidewalls of the blind hole 116, and connected to the sidewalls of the blind hole 116 by bonding, welding, clamping, etc. to transfer heat, and this disclosure is not limited to this.

[0087] In one embodiment, at least a portion of the heat reflection direction of the housing 110 is arranged toward the heater 120. By arranging at least a portion of the heat reflection direction of the housing 110 toward the heater 120, the heat generated by the heater 120 can be concentrated in the accommodation space, increasing the temperature of the accommodation space, thereby improving the heating effect on the gas, thereby improving the moisture desorption effect of the moisture absorption and desorption element 250, and ultimately improving the drying effect of the drying module 10 on the clothes in the clothing processing drum 20.

[0088] Specifically, at least a portion of the heat reflection direction on at least one of the body portion 111, sidewall portion 112, mounting portion 113, and protrusion 114 of the housing 110 is arranged to be directed toward the heater 120. When the heat reflection directions of the body portion 111, sidewall portion 112, mounting portion 113, and protrusion 114 of the housing 110 are all directed toward the heater 120, the heat generated by the heater 120 can be concentrated as much as possible in the accommodation space, further improving the heating effect on the gas, and thus further improving the moisture desorption effect on the moisture absorption and desorption component 250.

[0089] In which, a heat insulation layer can be set on the inner walls of the main body 111, side wall 112, mounting portion 113 and protrusion 114 of the shell 110, and the heat reflection direction of the heat insulation layer is set toward the direction of the heater 120. The heat insulation layer can be, for example, heat insulation foam or aluminum foil.

[0090] The housing 110 can be, for example, a high-aluminum, heat-resistant reflective substrate. Using a high-aluminum, heat-resistant reflective substrate as the housing 110 provides insulation, with heat reflected toward the heater 120, preventing damage to other components caused by excessive surface temperatures. Of course, the housing can also be formed of other metallic or non-metallic materials, and this disclosure does not limit this. Any changes in the housing material fall within the scope of this disclosure.

[0091] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG11 , the heater 120 is composed of a plurality of heating tubes connected end to end, the heating tubes being distributed at intervals along the radial direction of the sector, the length of the heating tubes being roughly perpendicular to the radial direction of the sector, and the plurality of heating tubes being connected to form an S-shaped distribution. The length of the heating tubes in the accommodation area is relatively longer, which can increase the contact area with the gas to be heated, thereby making the efficiency of heat exchange with the gas to be heated relatively higher.

[0092] Among them, the present disclosure narrows the heating tubes at both ends of the fan-shaped radial direction and narrows the distance between adjacent heating tubes, thereby reducing the area occupied by the heating tubes. By narrowing the heating tubes at both ends of the fan-shaped radial direction and narrowing the distance between adjacent heating tubes, the heat generated by the heating tubes is more concentrated, and the temperature of the heated gas is increased faster. At the same time, the volume occupied by the heating tubes is reduced, and the volume of the heating module 100 can be reduced, thereby improving the integration of the drying module. Among them, the area of ​​the positive projection of the heating tubes on the main body 111 is 20% to 60% of the area of ​​the main body 111, such as 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, etc., which are not listed one by one in the present disclosure.

[0093] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG9 , a support member 117 includes two support portions 1171 and a fixing portion 1172 located between the two support portions 1171 . The two support portions 1171 each support a heating tube. A recess matching the outer circumference of the heating tube is formed on the support surface of the support portion 1171 to limit the position of the heating tube and prevent the heating tube from moving left or right on the support surface or sliding off the support surface. At the same time, the contact area between the support portion 1171 and the outer circumference of the heating tube in the axial direction is increased, distributing the supporting force of the support portion 1171 around the circumference of the heating tube, thereby preventing the heating tube from being squeezed and deformed when the tightening force on the heating tube is large.

[0094] As shown in Figures 11 and 12, the fixing plate 150 cooperates with the support member 117 to fix the heating tube. The fixing plate 150 is located on the heating tube, and the fixing plate 150 and the support portion 1171 form a clamping and fixing method for the heating tube. The fixing plate 150 includes two clamping portions 151 and a connecting portion 152 located between the two clamping portions 151; the fixing portion 1172 of the support member 117 is provided with a mounting hole, and the connecting portion 152 of the fixing plate 150 is fixedly connected to the support member 117 via a screw. After each heating tube is placed on the corresponding support portion 1171, the heating tube is fixed to the support portion 1171 via the clamping portion 151 of the fixing plate 150. The connecting portion 152 of the fixing plate 150 and the fixing portion 1172 of the support member 117 are detachably connected via a screw, facilitating the assembly and maintenance of the heating assembly.

[0095] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG12 , the heating module 100 further includes an air guide plate 140 disposed between the heater 120 and the main body 111 , with the air guide plate 140 spaced apart from the main body 111. An air flow channel is formed between the air guide plate 140 and the main body 111 , communicating with the air inlet of the heating module 100 . After the heated gas enters the air flow channel formed between the air guide plate 140 and the main body 111 , it is guided by the air guide plate 140 and flows through the multiple heating tubes in the heater 120 . The air guide plate 140 is provided with multiple ventilation holes, at least some of which are disposed opposite the heating tubes. The air guide plate 140 allows the heated gas to enter the heater 120 more evenly for heating.

[0096] The plurality of air holes can be arranged in rows along the radial direction of the fan-shaped structure, with the position of each row of air holes roughly corresponding to the position of the heating tube, and the diameter of the air holes gradually increasing from the outer arc to the center along the radial direction of the fan-shaped structure. The air inlet of the heating module 100 is located on the outer arc side of the housing 110. The diameter of the air holes near the air inlet is relatively small, while the diameter of the air holes away from the air inlet is relatively large. That is, the diameter of the air holes near the air inlet is smaller than the diameter of the air holes away from the air inlet. This ensures that the gas flow rate of each air hole is roughly the same, allowing the gas to be heated to enter the heater 120 more evenly for heating.

[0097] In one embodiment, when the heating module 100 further includes an air guide plate 140, the support member 117 may be disposed on the air guide plate 140. The support member 117 and the air guide plate 140 may be an integrally formed structure or a separate structure, i.e., one end of the support member 117 is connected to the main body 111, and the other end supports the heater 120.

[0098] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the drying module 10 is also connected to a circulation module 40, which includes an air blower. The air inlet of the air blower is connected to the air outlet of the clothing treatment drum 20, and the air outlet of the air blower is connected to the air inlet of the dehumidification module 200, so as to supply the gas to be dehumidified in the clothing treatment drum 20 into the dehumidification module 200; the gas to be dehumidified is formed into dry gas after being processed by the dehumidification module 200, so that the wet circulating gas is converted into dry circulating gas, and the dry gas enters the clothing treatment drum 20 through the air inlet of the clothing treatment drum 20 and contacts the clothes, thereby achieving the purpose of circulating dehumidification of the clothes in the clothing treatment drum 20.

[0099] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the drying module 10 is also connected to a condensing module 50. The condensing module 50 can condense and dehydrate the hot and humid gas after the moisture is desorbed by the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. The water vapor of the hot and humid gas is cooled to form condensed water and discharged from the condenser, and becomes dry and cold gas to be heated and enters the regeneration fan 170 of the heating module 100, so that the gas forms a closed loop. Of course, the dry and cold gas to be heated formed after the condenser treatment can also be directly discharged into the atmosphere, and the present disclosure does not limit this. Among them, the condensing module 50 may include a tubular condenser, and the hot and humid gas is cooled by the tubular condenser so that the water vapor of the hot and humid gas is cooled to form condensed water and discharged from the condenser; the present disclosure does not limit the specific composition of the condensing module.

[0100] Among them, the gas sent into the heating module 100 through the regeneration fan 170 can be dry cold gas after moisture is desorbed by the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, that is, the gas is recycled, and the humidity of the gas sent in is relatively low, which can improve the drying efficiency and reduce energy consumption; or, the regeneration fan 170 of the heating module 100 can also directly inhale gas from the outside.

[0101] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 and 14 to 16, the dehumidification module 200 includes a moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 and a dehumidification housing 201. The dehumidification housing 201 is formed with a accommodating space, and at least part of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is located in the accommodating space; the dehumidification housing 201 is provided with a vent, and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is configured to absorb moisture in the gas entering the accommodating space; the heating module 100 is fixed to the first dehumidification housing 210 through the mounting portion 113 ... At least a portion of the wet element 250 is disposed opposite the open end 115 of the housing 110, and the heating module 100 is configured to dehydrate the portion of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 located at the open end 115. The sealing member 300 is located between the mounting portion 113 and the first dehumidification housing 210, and is used to seal the gap between the mounting portion 113 and the first dehumidification housing 210. The protrusion 114 abuts against the sealing member 300, and the protrusion 114 serves as a seal between the housing 110 and the sealing member 300. The housing 110 of the one-piece molded structure provided in the present disclosure has the protrusion 114 formed thereon. When the heating module 100 is assembled on the dehumidification module 200, the protrusion 114 cooperates with the sealing member 300 to limit the seal 300 between the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing member 300.

[0102] 4 , a heating air hole 230 is formed on the dehumidification housing 201. The heating module 100 dehydrates the portion of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 located at the open end 115 through the heating air hole 230.

[0103] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 5, the dehumidification shell 201 includes a first dehumidification shell 210 and a second dehumidification shell 220. The first dehumidification shell 210 and the second dehumidification shell 220 are enclosed to form an accommodating space, and at least part of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is located in the accommodating space; the first dehumidification shell 210 and the second dehumidification shell 220 are respectively provided with ventilation holes, and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is configured to absorb moisture in the gas entering the accommodating space; a heating air hole 230 is formed on the first dehumidification shell 210.

[0104] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 , a fan-shaped heating module 100 and heating air holes 230 are formed on the first dehumidification housing 210 . The heating module 100 is mounted on the heating air holes 230 . The heating module 100 is located above the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 .

[0105] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 to 12, a screw hole seat 119 is formed on the shell 110 of the heating module 100. When the shell 110 is formed as an integral part, the screw hole seat 119 can be simultaneously formed as an assembly area for fixedly connecting the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200, so that the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200 can be directly connected together through threaded parts without the need to set other fixing screw structures on the shell 110 of the heating module 100.

[0106] The size, number and distribution of the screw holes 119 on the housing 110 can be set according to the specific structures of the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200, and the present disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0107] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , a sealing structure with a Y-shaped cross-section is formed on the side of the sealing member 300 facing the mounting portion 113 of the housing 110. When the mounting portion 113 is in close contact with the sealing member 300, the squeezing force of the mounting portion 113 can squeeze and expand the Y-shaped sealing structure on the sealing member 300, thereby avoiding a gap between the sealing member 300 and the mounting portion 113 and improving the sealing effect between the sealing member 300 and the mounting portion 113. Of course, the cross-section of the sealing structure can also be rectangular, triangular, or irregular, and this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0108] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG17 , a sealing protrusion can be provided on the sealing surface where the first dehumidification housing 10 of the dehumidification module 200 abuts the sealing member 300. The sealing protrusion squeezes the sealing member 300 to improve the sealing effect between the first dehumidification housing 10 and the sealing member 300. The cross-sectional shape of the sealing protrusion can be triangular, semicircular, rectangular, or irregular, and this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0109] Those skilled in the art may also provide a sealing structure on the mounting portion 113 of the housing 110 , other sealing structures on the dehumidification housing 201 , or other sealing structures on the upper and lower sealing surfaces of the seal 300 , and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0110] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 13, the seal 300 is provided with a limiting portion 340 that matches the screw hole seat 119 on the shell 110, and a limiting hole is formed on the limiting portion 340. The screw hole seat 119 is a columnar structure. The limiting portion 340 of the seal 300 can be mounted on the screw hole seat 119 of the columnar structure through the limiting hole, forming a positioning between the seal 300 and the shell, thereby improving the sealing effect of the seal 300.

[0111] The size and number of the limiting portions 340 and their distribution on the seal 300 match the size and number of the screw hole seats 119 and their distribution on the housing 110 , and the present disclosure does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0112] Among them, there is a first gas flow channel between the first dehumidification shell 210 and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, and there is also a second gas flow channel between the second dehumidification shell 220 and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. The first gas flow channel and the second gas flow channel form the dehumidification area of ​​the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. The humid gas in the clothing treatment drum 20 can enter the first gas flow channel, absorb moisture through the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, and then be discharged through the second gas flow channel; or, the humid gas in the clothing treatment drum 20 can enter the second gas flow channel, absorb moisture through the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, and then be discharged through the first gas flow channel.

[0113] The open end 115 of the heating module 100 is connected to the hot air hole on the first dehumidification housing 210, that is, a third gas flow channel is formed between the heater 120 and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250; a fourth gas flow channel is formed between the second dehumidification housing 220 and the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. The fourth gas flow channel of the second dehumidification housing 220 is separated from the second gas flow channel by a barrier to separate the dehumidification zone from the dehydration zone. The heated, high-temperature dry gas enters the third gas flow channel to desorb moisture from the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. The humid gas after passing through the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 enters the fourth gas flow channel. During the rotation of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, various circumferential parts continuously pass through the dehumidification zone and the dehydration zone, thereby continuously performing a cycle of adsorbing and desorbing moisture, ultimately achieving the purpose of drying the clothes in the clothing treatment drum 20.

[0114] The dehumidification zone and the dehydration zone are relatively isolated so that the dehumidification airflow in the first and second gas flow channels and the dehydration airflow in the third and fourth gas flow channels are not interconnected, thereby ensuring the dehydration effect on the humid gas.

[0115] The moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 can be made of a material with good moisture absorption properties to improve its ability to absorb moisture from humid air, thereby improving the drying effect of the clothes in the laundry treatment drum 20. The materials of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element include, for example, lithium chloride, silica gel, zeolite, molecular sieve, etc., which are not limited in this disclosure.

[0116] In one embodiment, the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 is provided with a moisture absorbent for absorbing moisture. Examples of the moisture absorbent include zeolite, modified / synthetic zeolite, molecular sieves (including but not limited to zeolite molecular sieves, A / X / Y molecular sieves, ZSM molecular sieves, Beta molecular sieves, etc.), polymeric moisture absorbents, alkali metal aluminosilicates (13X molecular sieves), lithium chloride, silica gel, modified silica gel, activated alumina, and other moisture-absorbing materials. Polymeric moisture absorbents, also known as polymeric adsorbents, have a lower regeneration temperature than traditional silica gel, activated carbon, and molecular sieve adsorbents.

[0117] In one embodiment, the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 can be made of porous materials such as zeolite, molecular sieve, metal organic framework (MOF) material, covalent organic framework (COFs), nanocarbon, silicon dioxide, etc. In one embodiment, the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 can also be formed by filling granular solids or particles made of at least one of the above porous materials.

[0118] In one embodiment, the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 may be a honeycomb or corrugated moisture absorption and dehumidification member carrying a desiccant, which can adsorb and desorb / desorb the absorbed water vapor to achieve repeated desorption and regeneration.

[0119] In one embodiment, the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 includes an inorganic / organic fiber carrier (such as ceramic, glass fiber, MOFs, COFs, cordierite, etc.), which is coated with a moisture absorbent such as a molecular sieve. The molecular sieve is evenly distributed between and on the surface of the fiber carrier to absorb moisture from the airflow. The molecular sieve may include single crystal molecular sieves such as A molecular sieve, X / Y molecular sieve, ZSM molecular sieve, Beta molecular sieve, or mixed crystal molecular sieves.

[0120] The present disclosure does not limit the specific material of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250. Any moisture absorption and dehumidification component that can achieve moisture absorption and dehumidification effects falls within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0121] In one embodiment, the seal 300 is provided with a positioning portion on its outer circumference, which limits the seal 300 relative to the first dehumidification housing 210. During assembly, the positioning portion on the seal 300 limits the seal 300 relative to the first dehumidification housing 210, thereby ensuring assembly positioning of the seal 300. This ensures the seal 300's sealing effectiveness and prevents the first dehumidification housing 210 from overheating and melting. The seal 300 can be a rubber seal, which offers simple molding processes, low cost, and a long lifespan.

[0122] Among them, the shape of the seal 300 matches the shape of the mounting portion 113, that is, the seal 300 is also fan-shaped; the positioning portion can be a protrusion and a recess formed on the radial outer arc surface of the fan-shaped seal 300; as shown in Figure 9, a notch 1131 is formed on the outer arc side of the shell 110 of the heating module 100, and a raised threaded mounting portion 1133 is provided in the notch 1131; the protrusion 321 on the outer arc surface of the seal 300 matches the notch 1131 on the shell 110, and the recess 322 on the outer arc surface matches the raised threaded mounting portion 1133, thereby realizing the assembly limit of the seal 300 and the shell 110 of the heating module 100.

[0123] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 9, a limiting strip 1132 is formed on the outer arc side of the shell 110 of the heating module 100; as shown in Figure 13, an arc-shaped convex edge 330 is formed on the outer arc side of the seal 300, and the convex edge 330 matches the limiting strip 1132. After the seal 300 is located between the heating module 100 and the dehumidification module 200, the convex edge 330 and the limiting strip 1132 abut together in the radial direction of the fan, forming a positioning effect between the seal 300 and the shell 110, thereby improving the sealing effect of the seal 300.

[0124] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG13 , a heat insulating portion 310 is formed on the seal 300 at a position corresponding to the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250. The heat insulating portion 310 is located on the inner periphery of the seal 300 and extends toward the center of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250. The seal 300 is also fan-shaped. A portion extending inwardly of the seal 300 is formed on the radially outer arc side of the seal 300. Because this portion is located between the heating zone and the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250, the extended portion forms a barrier to heated gas, thereby reducing the amount of heated gas flowing through the heating vents 230 near the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250. This relatively lowers the temperature of the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 when the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250 is in the dehydration zone, thereby preventing overheating of components in the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250, such as the housing or plastic gear of the moisture absorption and dehumidification member 250. In one embodiment, when a plastic gear is provided on the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, the design of the extension portion can ensure the reliability of the plastic gear teeth provided on the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, thereby preventing the plastic gear teeth from being deformed or even melted by high temperature, thereby improving the reliability of the drying module.

[0125] Among them, after the heating module 100 is sealed and connected to the dehumidification module 200, the protrusion 114 on the shell 110 of the heating module 100 located on the outer arc can abut against the insulation part 310 of the seal 300, that is, abut against the part extending from the seal 300.

[0126] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG4 , a windshield 240 is formed in the heating air hole 230 of the first dehumidification housing 210. The windshield 240 corresponds to the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 and extends toward the center of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250. The heating air hole 230 of the first dehumidification housing 210 is fan-shaped. A portion extending toward the center of the first dehumidification housing 210 is formed on the radially outer arc side of the first dehumidification housing 210. This extended portion serves as the windshield 240. Because this portion is located between the heating zone and the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250, the extended windshield 240 blocks the heated gas. This reduces the amount of heated gas flowing into the heating air hole 230 near the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250, thereby relatively lowering the temperature of the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250 when it is in the dehydration zone, thereby preventing overheating of components in the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250, such as the housing or plastic gear of the moisture absorption and dehumidification element 250. In one embodiment, when a plastic gear is provided on the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, the design of the extended wind shield 240 can ensure the reliability of the plastic gear teeth provided on the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250, thereby preventing the plastic gear teeth from being deformed or even melted by high temperature, thereby improving the reliability of the drying module.

[0127] In addition, the heat insulating portion 310 on the sealing member 300 and the wind shield portion 240 on the first dehumidification shell 210 are arranged relative to each other, and a double barrier to high-temperature gas is formed by the heat insulating portion 310 and the wind shield portion 240, which can further reduce the temperature of the edge area when the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250 is located in the dehydration area, and further ensure the reliability of the plastic gear teeth arranged on the edge of the moisture absorption and dehumidification component 250.

[0128] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 , a reinforcing rib 160 is provided between the side wall portion 112 and the mounting portion 113 of the housing 110 . The reinforcing rib 160 improves the structural strength of the housing 110 .

[0129] The reinforcing rib 160 may be located between the mounting portion 113 provided with the blind hole 116 and the side wall portion 112. Since the mounting portion 113 is provided with the blind hole 116, higher structural requirements are placed on the mounting portion 113 with the blind hole 116 after the thermostat 130 is assembled to prevent the housing 110 from cracking due to the assembly of the thermostat 130. Therefore, by adding the reinforcing rib 160 between the mounting portion 113 with the blind hole 116 and the side wall portion 112, the structural strength between the mounting portion 113 with the blind hole 116 and the side wall portion 112 is improved, thereby improving the reliability of the housing 110.

[0130] Among them, multiple reinforcing ribs 160 can be provided, distributed between the mounting portion 113 with a blind hole 116 and the side wall portion 112, or distributed simultaneously between the mounting portion 113 with a blind hole 116 and the side wall portion 112 without a blind hole 116. The present disclosure does not limit the number and distribution position of the reinforcing ribs 160.

[0131] Among them, the reinforcing ribs 160 can be a sheet-like triangular structure, so that the reinforcing ribs 160 can be directly formed when the shell 110 is integrally formed, further enhancing the role of the reinforcing ribs 160 in reinforcing the structural strength; of course, the reinforcing ribs can also be other shapes, and the reinforcing ribs can also be connected to the shell 110 by bonding, clamping, welding, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0132] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG9 , a plurality of hollow portions 1134 are formed in a radially arranged row on the mounting portion 113 near the periphery of the fan-shaped housing 110. Hollow portions 1134 are located on one side of the mounting portion 113 near the protrusion 114. The provision of hollow portions 1134 allows for adjustment of the wall thickness of the housing structure during the formation of the housing 110, resulting in a uniform wall thickness, thereby enabling the housing 110 to be formed through an integrated molding process. Furthermore, by providing multiple hollow portions 1134 on the housing 110, support ribs are formed on the sidewalls between the multiple hollow portions 1134, thereby increasing the structural strength of the housing 110.

[0133] The drying module provided in the present disclosure can be used in clothing processing equipment, which can be, for example, a washing and drying machine; of course, the drying module provided in the present disclosure can also be used in household appliances that require moisture absorption / drying, such as refrigerators, air conditioners, and dishwashers.

[0134] Other embodiments of the present disclosure will readily occur to those skilled in the art after considering the specification and practicing the invention disclosed herein. This disclosure is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the present disclosure that follow the general principles of the present disclosure and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The description and examples are to be considered as exemplary only, with the true scope and spirit of the present disclosure being indicated by the following claims.

[0135] It should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the exact structures that have been described above and shown in the drawings, and that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope thereof.
