[0046] Referring to FIG. 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a clothing processing device including: a housing 1 , a first box body 2 , and a second box body 3 .

[0047] The clothing processing equipment may be a washing machine, a dryer, a washer-dryer, etc., without limitation here.

[0048] The box body 1 is the exterior component of the clothes processing device and has a storage space inside.

[0049] Referring to Figure 2 , a first box body 2 is retractably disposed within the housing 1 and includes a first panel 21 for withdrawing the first box body 2 from the front side of the housing 1. In this embodiment, the first box body 2 is configured to be withdrawn from the front side of the housing 1, which saves space above the laundry processing apparatus 1, facilitates the installation of other devices such as a laundry companion above the laundry processing apparatus, and increases the use scenarios of the laundry processing apparatus.

[0050] It should be noted that the front side of the housing 1 refers to the side of the clothing processing device facing the user after the clothing processing device is installed.

[0051] 3 , the second box body 3 is retractably disposed in the box body 1 and includes a second panel 31 for pulling the second box body out from the front side of the box body 1. Pulling the second box body 3 out from the front side of the box body 1 facilitates user operation.

[0052] The first housing 2 and the second housing 3 are arranged adjacent to each other, forming a gap between them on the exterior surface of the laundry processing device. This means that the two housings can be arranged adjacent to each other in the height direction or in the left-right direction. This fully utilizes the space near the second housing 3, resulting in a compact structure.

[0053] At least one of the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 is provided with a hand grip groove 4, and a notch 4a is formed at the intersection of the hand grip groove 4, so that the hand grip groove 4 is used for the force-applying body to pull out the first box body 2 or the second box body 3. In this way, the force-applying body can directly apply force to the first panel 21 through the hand grip groove 4 to pull out the first box body 2, or directly apply force to the second panel 31 to pull out the second box body 3, which is convenient for the user to operate.

[0054] In this embodiment, the hand-grip groove 4 not only facilitates the force-applying body to apply force to the first panel 21, but also facilitates the force-applying body to apply force to the second panel 31. In this way, the hand-grip groove 4 can be reused, and there is no need to set recessed parts on the first box body 2 and the second box body 3 respectively on the box body 1, which improves the compactness of the structure and is also conducive to the neat appearance of the clothing processing equipment.

[0055] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the first box body 2 further includes a first shell 22 connected to the first panel 21 , and the second box body 3 further includes a second shell 32 connected to the second panel 31 .

[0056] Both the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 are exposed on the outer surface of the housing 1. That is, when the first housing 2 is pushed into the housing 1, the first panel 21 is exposed, while the first housing 22 is inside the housing 1. The first panel 21 covers the first housing 22. From the outside of the laundry processing device, the user can see the first panel 21 but can barely see the first housing 22. The first panel 21 is designed for the user to grip, making it easier for the user to apply force to push or pull the second housing 3.

[0057] Similarly, when the second housing 3 is pushed into the housing 1, the second panel 31 is exposed, and the second shell 32 is inside the housing 1. The second panel 31 covers the second shell 32. From the outside of the laundry processing device, the user can see the second panel 31 but can hardly see the second shell 32. The second panel 31 is provided for the user to grasp, making it easier for the user to apply force to push and pull the second housing 3.

[0058] It should be noted that the formation method of the hand grip groove 4 is not limited.

[0059] In some embodiments, referring to FIG1 , the first panel 21 and / or the second panel 31 are partially recessed inward to form a hand-grip groove 4. That is, there are three ways to form the hand-grip groove 4: first, the first panel 21 is partially recessed inward to form the hand-grip groove 4; second, the second panel 31 is partially recessed inward to form the hand-grip groove 4; and third, the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 are partially recessed inward to form the hand-grip groove 4, respectively. Forming the hand-grip groove 4 by partially recessing the outer surface can serve as a distinct appearance feature, making the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 more distinct in appearance, providing a user with a prompt to identify the second box body 3 and the first box body 2, and reducing user misoperation during use.

[0060] In other embodiments, the hand latch groove 4 passes through the first panel 21 and / or the second panel 31 along the front-to-back direction of the clothing processing device. That is, there are three ways to form the hand latch groove 4: the first way is that the hand latch groove 4 passes through the first panel 21 along the front-to-back direction of the clothing processing device; the second way is that the hand latch groove 4 passes through the second panel 31 along the front-to-back direction of the clothing processing device; the third way is that the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 form the hand latch groove 4 respectively, and the hand latch groove 4 passes through the first panel 21 and the second panel 31 along the front-to-back direction of the clothing processing device. It should be noted that there is a gap between the first panel 21 and the first shell 22, or there is a gap between the second panel 31 and the second shell 32. In this way, the force-applying body can directly apply force to the first panel 21 or the second panel through the hand latch groove 4, simplifying the manufacturing process of the first panel 21 or the second panel 31, and at the same time, improving the user's operability.

[0061] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 4 , a hand grip groove 4 is provided on the first panel 21 , and a hand grip structure 4b is provided on the sidewall of the hand grip groove 4 facing the second panel 32 . The hand grip structure 4b is configured to accommodate force application by a force-applying body, i.e., the hand grip structure 4b has space in the vertical direction. It is understood that the hand grip structure 4b facilitates the force-applying body to apply force to the second panel 31 along the hand grip groove 4 , thereby enhancing the user's operating experience.

[0062] In other embodiments, the hand grip groove 4 is provided on the second panel 31, and the sidewall of the hand grip groove 4 on the side away from the first panel 21 has a hand grip structure 4b; wherein, the hand grip structure 4b is used for a force-applying body to apply force. In other words, the hand grip structure is located on the sidewall of the hand grip groove facing the first panel. It can be understood that the hand grip structure 4b can facilitate the force-applying body to apply force to the first panel 21 along the hand grip groove 4, thereby improving the user's operating experience.

[0063] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 4 , a finger groove 4 is provided on the first panel 21 , and a cavity 5 is formed on the inner side of the second panel 31 near the finger groove 4 ; a notch 4a is connected to the cavity 5 . It is understood that a force-applying body can enter the cavity 5 along the notch 4a through the finger groove 4 , so that the force-applying body can apply force to the second panel 31 , thereby withdrawing the second housing 3 , improving user convenience.

[0064] In other embodiments, the hand grip groove 4 is provided on the second panel 31, and the first panel 21 has a cavity 5 on the side near the hand grip groove 4; wherein the notch 4a is in communication with the cavity 5. It is understood that the force-applying body can enter the cavity 5 along the notch 4a through the hand grip groove 4, so that the force-applying body can apply force to the first panel 21, thereby withdrawing the first box body 2, improving the convenience of user operation.

[0065] In some embodiments, the hand grip groove 4 is provided on the first panel 21, and the depth of the hand grip groove 4 is greater than the thickness of the second panel 31. In this way, the force applying body directly enters the inner side of the second panel 31 through the hand grip groove 4, applies external force to the second panel 31, and pulls the second box body 3 out from the front side of the box body 1, which is convenient for the user to operate.

[0066] In another embodiment, referring to FIG3 , a hand grip groove 4 is provided on the second panel 31, and the depth of the hand grip groove 4 is greater than the thickness of the first panel 21. In this way, the force applying body directly enters the inner side of the first panel 21 through the hand grip groove 4, applies external force to the first panel 21, and pulls the first box body 2 out from the front side of the box body 1, making it easier for the user to operate.

[0067] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 , the clothing processing device includes a drum assembly and an air duct, wherein the drum assembly has an air inlet and an air outlet; the air duct connects the air inlet and the air outlet;

[0068] The drum assembly is disposed within the housing 1 and has an air inlet and an air outlet. An air duct connects the inlet and outlet. The drum assembly has a laundry processing chamber for receiving laundry. The air outlet directs airflow from the drum assembly upstream of the air duct, while the air inlet directs airflow from downstream of the air duct into the drum assembly. Air circulates within the air duct and the laundry processing chamber.

[0069] For example, a condensing and dehumidifying element and a heating element are provided in the air duct, and the heating element is located downstream of the condensing and dehumidifying element along the air flow direction. The air in the air duct first flows through the condensing and dehumidifying element for condensation and dehumidification, and then flows through the heating element for heating.

[0070] For example, the principle of drying clothes in a clothing treatment device is as follows: the dry hot air flow in the air duct enters the clothing treatment chamber through the air inlet from the downstream of the air duct along the air flow direction. In the clothing treatment chamber, the dry hot air flow flows over the surface of the wet clothes, exchanges heat and moisture with the wet clothes, absorbs moisture from the clothes, and turns into a humid hot air flow. The humid hot air flow enters the upstream of the air duct through the air outlet, and flows through the condensation and dehumidification element and the heating element in sequence. During the process of flowing through the condensation and dehumidification element, the water vapor in the humid hot air flow is separated from the air flow due to the cooling and condenses into water droplets. The humid hot air flow is condensed and dehumidified by the condensation and dehumidification element to form a low-temperature dry air flow. The low-temperature dry air flow is heated to a dry hot air flow when passing through the heating element. The dry hot air flow enters the clothing treatment chamber again from the downstream of the air duct, and the cycle continues, achieving continuous and efficient drying of clothes.

[0071] It should be noted that the low-temperature dry airflow is relative to the moist hot airflow, and the temperature of the low-temperature dry airflow is lower than that of the moist hot airflow. The low temperature in the embodiment of the present application may be room temperature.

[0072] In some embodiments, the condensation dehumidification element may be an evaporator in a heat pump system, and the heating element may be a condenser in a heat pump system. In other embodiments, the condensation dehumidification element may dehumidify the airflow by condensing water, and the heating element may be a resistance wire heater.

[0073] Exemplarily, the first box body 2 is a filter, and the second box body 3 is a detergent box. The filter is arranged on the air flow path of the air duct and is used to filter the air flow. It is understandable that the first box body 2 has at least a chamber that can accommodate filtered debris, and the first box body 2 can be pulled out from the front side of the housing 1, so that the user can take out the debris in the first box body 2. The first box body 2 is arranged on the air flow direction path of the air duct and is used to filter the air flow. When the clothing processing device is drying clothes, the clothes in the clothing processing chamber will produce lint and other debris. The lint and other debris flow through the first box body 2 with the air flow through the air duct. After the air flow is filtered by the first box body 2, the lint and other debris carried in the air flow are intercepted by the first box body 2. The second box body 3 has at least a chamber for accommodating detergent. The second box body 3 is pulled out from the front side of the housing 1, so that the detergent can be put into the second box body 3.

[0074] In some embodiments, referring to FIG1 , the second box body 3 and the first box body 2 are arranged side by side in the height direction. A hand grip groove 4 is provided on the upper portion of the lower one of the first panel 21 and the second panel 31. The hand grip groove 4 extends to its top edge and forms a notch 4a at its top edge. This allows full utilization of the height space of the box body 1, resulting in a compact structure.

[0075] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the first housing 2 is positioned above the second housing 3. A hand grip 4 is provided on the upper portion of the second panel 31, extending to the top edge of the second panel 31. In other words, the second housing 3 is positioned below the first housing 2. This allows the air duct to be positioned higher, preventing interference between the water passages of the second housing 3 and the air duct, thus simplifying piping routing. Furthermore, even if the second housing 3 leaks, the leaked liquid will not wet the first housing 2, enhancing its reliability.

[0076] In other embodiments, the first box body 2 is located below the second box body 3 , and a hand grip groove 4 is provided on the upper portion of the first panel 21 , which extends to the top edge of the first panel 21 . That is, the second box body 3 is located above the first box body 2 .

[0077] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 and 2, the first box body 2 includes a first shell 22 and a locking member 23 that are interconnected. The locking member 23 is located on the inner side of the first panel 21 and is used to lock the first box body 2 to the housing 1. The first box body 2 is arranged on the air duct. Therefore, after the first box body 2 is placed in the housing 1, a high sealing performance is required to prevent the airflow in the air duct from leaking from the installation position of the first box body 2. Therefore, the first box body 2 is locked to the housing 1 by the locking member 23 to prevent the first box body 2 from moving and improve the sealing reliability. In addition, during the production, transportation, or clothing processing of the clothing processing equipment, the first box body 2 can be locked to the housing 1 by the locking member 23 to prevent the first box body 2 from falling out, thereby improving safety and reliability.

[0078] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 5 to 10, the housing 1 has a lock slot, and the locking member 23 includes a third shell 231, an elastic member 232, and a positioning bead 233. The third shell 231 is connected to the first panel 21, and the third shell 231 has a receiving space 231a. A portion of the positioning bead 233 and the elastic member 232 are located in the receiving space 231a. The positioning bead 233 is connected to the elastic member 232, and the elastic member 232 is used to drive the positioning bead 233 into or out of the lock slot. It is understood that the elastic member 232 is compressed to generate an elastic force, and a portion of the positioning bead 233 extends out of the third shell 231 under the action of the elastic force. When the positioning bead 233 is aligned with the lock slot, the positioning bead 233 can enter the lock slot, generating a restraining effect between the housing 1 and the first housing 2, limiting the relative movement between the housing 1 and the first housing 2, so that the first housing 2 is fixed to the clothing processing device, achieving the locking function. The force applying body applies external force to the first panel 21 , and the positioning beads 233 are squeezed and the elastic member 232 is compressed, causing the positioning beads 233 to shrink inwards and exit the locking slot, thereby achieving the unlocking function.

[0079] In some embodiments, the second box body 3 can be positioned and matched with the structure inside the box body 1 by means of a spring abutment or other means, thereby limiting the second box body 3. In this way, when there is no external force pulling the second box body 3 outward, the above-mentioned positioning and matching structure can maintain the second box body 3 in its current position, and the second box body 3 is not easy to fall out during the transportation of the clothing processing device or the washing and care of clothes. When the force-applying body applies a relatively large pulling force to the hand grip 4, the second box body 3 can be pulled out from the front side of the box body 1.

[0080] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2 and 3 , the housing 1 includes a front panel 11 and a control panel 12. The front panel 11 is provided with a clothing access opening, and the control panel 12 is disposed above the front panel 11. The front surface of the control panel 12 and the front surface of the front panel 11 each serve as part of the front surface of the housing 1. The control panel 12 is used to mount human-computer interaction components such as a screen and / or operating keys.

[0081] For example, referring to Figures 2 and 3 , the control panel 12 is provided with a first mounting opening 12a and a second mounting opening 12b. The second housing 3 is provided through the first mounting opening 12a, and the first housing 2 is provided through the second mounting opening 12b. In other words, the second housing 3 and the first housing 2 are both positioned close to the control panel 12, at an ergonomically designed height for user convenience. Furthermore, interference between the second housing 3 and the first housing 2 is less likely to occur, allowing the second housing 3 and the first housing 2 to be withdrawn independently, or both to be withdrawn simultaneously, thereby enhancing user convenience. Furthermore, since the second housing 3 and the first housing 2 are arranged side by side in height, the second housing 3 and the first housing 2 occupy relatively little of the left-right dimension of the control panel 12 in the laundry processing device's left-right direction, freeing up a larger area on the control panel 12 for mounting human-computer interaction components such as a screen and / or operation keys. It should be noted that if the second box body 3 and the first box body 2 are arranged side by side along the left and right directions of the clothing processing device, the two will occupy a larger size in the left and right directions, resulting in the remaining area of ​​the control panel being too small, which is inconvenient for users to operate and view, affecting the user experience.

[0082] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 , the control panel 12 includes an inclined panel 121 and a longitudinal panel 122. The inclined panel 121 is connected to the top end of the longitudinal panel 122, and the inclined panel 121 and the longitudinal panel 122 extend in the left-right direction of the laundry processing device.
