DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings, which are meant to be exemplary, and are not to be construed as limiting the present application.

[0041] A laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] As shown in FIGS. 1-8, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to embodiments of the present application includes a housing 10, a laundry treating main body 20, and a shelf 30.

[0043] The housing 10 defines a receiving cavity 113 in which the laundry treating main body 20 is disposed, and the laundry treating main body 20 includes a laundry treating drum assembly 21. The shelf 30 is fixed between two oppositely disposed first side walls 111 of the housing 10, and the shelf 30 is positioned below the laundry treating drum assembly 21. At least a portion of the structure of the laundry treating main body 20 is disposed on the shelf 30. By additionally providing the shelf 30, the space between the laundry treating drum assembly 21 and the shelf 30 is used to dispose at least a portion of the structure of the laundry treating main body 20, thereby increasing the space for accommodating components and reducing the space occupied by the laundry treating main body 20 in other locations.

[0044] Specifically, by additionally providing the shelf 30, the space for disposing components is increased, so that a portion of the structure of the laundry treating main body 20 can be disposed on the shelf 30. This allows the portion of the structure of the laundry treating main body 20 to be rearranged, thereby facilitating the redesign of the size of the laundry treating apparatus 1000. For example, by disposing a structure originally positioned on the left side or the right side of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 on the shelf 30, the length of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 in the left-right direction can be reduced. Alternatively, by disposing a structure originally positioned on the front side or the rear side of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 on the shelf 30, the length of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 in the front-rear direction can be reduced, so that the laundry treating apparatus 1000 can be adapted to a narrow area.

[0045] In addition, by providing the shelf 30 and fixing the shelf 30 between the two oppositely disposed first side walls 111 of the housing 10, the structural strength of the housing 10 and the laundry treating apparatus 1000 can be enhanced, so that the housing 10 can better protect the laundry treating main body 20 in the receiving cavity 113.

[0046] Therefore, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to embodiments of the present application can increase the structural strength of the entire machine, rearrange the internal components of the laundry treating apparatus 1000, and make the layout of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 in a limited space more reasonable without reducing the internal capacity of the laundry treating apparatus 1000.

[0047] A laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 1-8, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 includes a housing 10, a laundry treating main body 20, and a support plate 30.

[0049] In some optional embodiments of the present application, each first side wall 111 is provided with a connecting portion 12 extending in the first direction, and the two connecting portions 12 are oppositely arranged in the second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The support plate 30 extends in the second direction, and the two ends of the support plate 30 in the second direction are respectively supported on and connected with the two connecting portions 12 to fix the support plate 30 on the two connecting portions 12. On the one hand, the structure strength of the housing 10 can be enhanced by the support plate 30, and on the other hand, the space for placing components can be increased. The part of the structure of the laundry treating main body 20 can be arranged on the support plate 30, and the internal components of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 can be rearranged to make the layout of the laundry treating apparatus in the limited space more reasonable without reducing the internal capacity of the laundry treating apparatus.

[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the first direction extends in the front-rear direction, and the second direction extends in the left-right direction. The left side wall and the right side wall of the housing 10 respectively define the first side wall 111. The two connecting portions 12 are respectively located at the lower ends of the two first side walls 111. The length direction of the support plate 30 extends in the left-right direction, and the left and right ends of the support plate 30 are respectively supported on the two connecting portions 12 to fix the support plate 30 on the housing 10. The space for placing components in the housing 10 is increased by the support plate 30.

[0051] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the connecting portion 12 forms a connecting flange provided at the lower end of the first side wall 111. The connecting portion 12 and the first side wall 111 are an integral molded part. In this way, the connecting portion 12 does not need to be fixed to the first side wall 111, which facilitates reducing the connecting components in the laundry treating apparatus 1000, and further reduces the number of parts of the laundry treating apparatus 1000.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first direction extends in the front-rear direction, and the second direction extends in the left-right direction. The left side wall and the right side wall of the housing 10 respectively define the first side wall 111 and the connecting portion 12. Specifically, the left side wall of the housing 10 is bent to form a connecting flange at the lower end of the left side wall of the housing 10, thereby defining the connecting portion 12. The right side wall of the housing 10 is bent to form a connecting flange at the lower end of the right side wall of the housing 10, thereby defining the connecting portion 12. In this way, no connecting component needs to be arranged between the first side wall 111 and the connecting portion 12, which facilitates reducing the complexity of the parts of the laundry treating apparatus 1000.

[0053] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the shell 10 comprises a shell body 11 defining a receiving cavity 113, and two reinforcing beams corresponding to the two first side walls 111, the reinforcing beams forming the connecting portions 12, the reinforcing beams being fixed to the first side walls 111, and the two ends of the supporting plate 30 in the second direction being fixed to the two reinforcing beams respectively to fix the supporting plate 30 to the shell 10, and the space in the shell 10 for placing parts is increased by the supporting plate 30.

[0054] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the shell 10 comprises a shell body 11 defining a receiving cavity 113, and two reinforcing beams corresponding to the two first side walls 111, the reinforcing beams forming the connecting portions 12, the reinforcing beams being fixed to the first side walls 111, and the two ends of the supporting plate 30 in the second direction being fixed to the two reinforcing beams respectively to fix the supporting plate 30 to the shell 10, and the space in the shell 10 for placing parts is increased by the supporting plate 30.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first direction extends in the front-rear direction, the second direction extends in the left-right direction, the left side wall and the right side wall of the shell 10 each define a first side wall 111, the lower end of the left side wall, the rear side wall and the front side wall each has a first flange, the connecting portion 12 on the left side is fixedly connected to the first flange by screws or bolts to fix the connecting portion 12 to the lower end of the left side wall, and the lower end of the right side wall, the rear side wall and the front side wall each has a second flange, the connecting portion 12 on the right side is fixedly connected to the second flange by screws or bolts to fix the connecting portion 12 to the lower end of the right side wall.

[0056] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 8, the middle part of the supporting plate 30 in the second direction has a downwardly recessed avoiding recess 32 for avoiding the clothes treatment drum assembly 21, wherein the middle part of the supporting plate 30 is recessed downwardly to recess the middle part of the supporting plate 30 away from the clothes treatment drum assembly 21, so as to reserve sufficient space for the clothes treatment drum assembly 21, and parts can be placed between the middle part of the supporting plate 30 and the clothes treatment drum assembly 21 or the supporting plate 30 does not interfere with the clothes treatment drum assembly 21.

[0057] In some specific embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 6, the two ends of the supporting plate 30 in the second direction are fixed to the middle parts of the two connecting portions 12 in the first direction, so as to enhance the structural strength between the supporting plate 30 and the two connecting portions 12 and the stability of the connection between the supporting plate 30 and the two connecting portions 12 when the supporting plate 30 is fixed to the two connecting portions 12, and the supporting plate 30 is not easy to fall off from the connecting portions 12.

[0058] At the same time, by fixing the two ends of the support plate 30 in the second direction to the middle parts of the two connecting parts 12 in the first direction, sufficient space is reserved on both sides of the support plate 30 along the first direction. In this way, when part of the structure of the clothing processing body 20 is set on the support plate 30, sufficient space is reserved for part of the structure of the clothing processing body 20.

[0059] In some specific embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 6, a plurality of mounting portions 122 are provided on the connecting portion 12, and at least two mounting portions 122 are located on both sides of the support plate 30 along the first direction. The mounting portions 122 are used to install a vibration-damping assembly to support the clothing processing drum assembly 21 through the vibration-damping assembly. In this way, when the clothing processing drum assembly 21 is supported and fixed, it is convenient to reduce the vibration transmitted from the clothing processing drum assembly 21 to the outer shell 10.

[0060] In some embodiments, the clothing processing drum assembly 21 includes an outer drum and an inner drum, and the inner drum is rotatably arranged in the outer drum. One end of the vibration-damping assembly is supported on the outer drum, and the other end is arranged on the mounting portion 122. When the inner drum rotates, it will cause the outer drum to vibrate, and the vibration of the outer drum may collide with the shell. The vibration-damping assembly is used to support the clothing processing drum assembly 21 and buffer the vibration of the clothing processing drum assembly 21 to reduce the vibration transmitted to the outer shell 10, reduce the probability of the outer drum colliding with the outer shell 10, and facilitate reducing the noise generated by the clothing processing device 1000 and extending the service life of the clothing processing device 1000.

[0061] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 5, the support plate 30 has a plurality of first fixing holes 31, and the connecting part 12 has a plurality of first matching holes 121. The plurality of first fixing holes 31 and the plurality of first matching holes 121 are arranged one by one opposite to each other. The support plate 30 and the connecting part 12 are connected by a plurality of first fasteners and the first fasteners are passed through the corresponding first fixing holes 31 and the first matching holes 121 to fix the support plate 30 on the connecting part 12.

[0062] In some embodiments, the diameter of some of the first fixing holes 31 is slightly larger than the diameter of the first matching hole 121. The first fastener is a screw. When the screw passes through the first fixing hole 31 and the first matching hole 121, it can also fine-tune the position of the support plate 30 relative to the connecting portion 12 to fix the support plate 30 to the position specified by the connecting portion 12. In addition, the screw head of the first fastener can be accommodated in the first fixing hole 31 to avoid the screw head occupying space on the support plate 30, thereby reserving space for some components of the clothing processing body 20.

[0063] In some examples, some of the plurality of first fixing holes 31 are elliptical holes, square holes, and circular holes, which are not limited here.

[0064] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 8, the at least one connecting portion 12 has a supporting step 123 on the side facing the accommodating cavity 113, and the pallet 30 has a matching step 33 on the side facing the connecting portion 12, the pallet 30 is supported on the supporting step 123 and the matching step 33 and the supporting step 123 match each other to support the pallet 30 on the connecting portion 12.

[0065] In this way, the connecting portion 12 is provided with the supporting step 123 to improve the structural strength of the connecting portion 12, and the pallet 30 is provided with the matching step 33 to improve the structural strength of the pallet 30, so that the pallet 30 can bear a larger force when fixed on the connecting portion 12, which on one hand improves the structural strength of the shell 10 and on the other hand increases the weight that the pallet 30 can bear.

[0066] As shown in FIG. 8, in the present embodiment, the first direction extends along the front-rear direction, and the second direction extends along the left-right direction, the right end of the pallet 30 is provided with the matching step 33, and the connecting portion 12 at the lower end of the right side wall of the shell 10 is provided with the supporting step 123, and the matching step 33 is supported on the supporting step 123. In this embodiment, the clothes treatment main body 20 further includes a compressor 22, and the compressor 22 is fixed to the right area of the pallet 30. Since the compressor 22 has a large mass, by providing the matching step 33 at the right end of the pallet 30 and supporting it on the supporting step 123, the supporting force of the connecting portion 12 on the pallet 30 can be increased to enable the compressor 22 to be stably arranged in the right area of the pallet 30.

[0067] In some specific embodiments of the present application, the supporting step 123 and the matching step 33 both extend along the first direction to increase the matching area of the supporting step 123 and the matching step 33, so that the matching step 33 can be stably arranged on the supporting step 123, the pallet 30 can be stably fixed on the connecting portion 12, and the load bearing capacity of the connecting portion 12 and the pallet 30 can be increased.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first direction extends along the front-rear direction, the length direction of the connecting portion 12 extends along the front-rear direction, the length direction of the pallet 30 extends along the left-right direction, the width direction of the pallet 30 extends along the front-rear direction, the two connecting portions 12 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the pallet 30, and the right side of the pallet 30 is provided with the matching step 33, the matching step 33 extends along the front-rear direction, and the matching step 33 is supported on the corresponding connecting portion 12 to preliminarily limit the position of the pallet 30.

[0069] In some optional embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the supporting plate 30 is provided with a plurality of fixing portions, and the clothes treating main body 20 further comprises a compressor 22, which is placed on the supporting plate 30 and the plurality of supporting feet 221 of the compressor 22 are matched with the plurality of fixing portions to fix the compressor 22 on the supporting plate 30. In some embodiments, the compressor 22 can be vertically placed on the supporting plate 30; in other embodiments, the compressor 22 can also be horizontally placed on the supporting plate 30, which is not limited here.

[0070] In some specific embodiments of the present application, the at least two fixing portions are located in the area where the supporting plate 30 overlaps with one of the connecting portions 12, so as to jointly support the compressor 22 by the connecting portion 12 and the supporting plate 30. Specifically, the compressor 22 itself has a relatively heavy weight, and the compressor 22 is stably supported by the connecting portion 12 and the supporting plate 30, so as to be stably fixed on the supporting plate 30.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 1, in the present embodiment, the supporting plate 30 is located below the clothes treating drum assembly 21, the length direction of the supporting plate 30 extends along the left-right direction, the width direction of the supporting plate 30 extends along the front-rear direction, and the axial direction of the clothes treating drum assembly 21 extends along the front-rear direction. In the up-down direction, the distance between the clothes treating drum assembly 21 and the left and right ends of the supporting plate 30 is relatively large, and the distance between the clothes treating drum assembly 21 and the middle region of the supporting plate 30 is relatively small.

[0072] In some embodiments, the compressor 22 is vertically placed on the right side of the supporting plate 30, and the height of the compressor 22 in the up-down direction is relatively high, so as to sufficiently utilize the space between the supporting plate 30 and the clothes treating drum assembly 21, and then the compressor 22 is arranged at a suitable position on the supporting plate 30. Of course, the compressor 22 can also be vertically placed on the left side of the supporting plate 30, which is not limited here.

[0073] In some specific embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, a part of the supporting plate 30 is upwardly protruded to form a protruding portion 35 on the upper surface of the supporting plate 30 and form a recessed portion on the lower surface of the supporting plate 30. The fixing portion is arranged on the protruding portion 35 and comprises a second fixing hole 351. The supporting plate 30 and the supporting feet 221 are connected by a second fastener, and the second fastener passes through the second fixing hole 351. The recessed portion is used for accommodating a nut matched with the second fastener, so as to fix the supporting feet 221 and the supporting plate 30 together by the second fastener, while avoiding the nut interfering with the connecting portion 12.

[0074] In some embodiments, a buffer pad 26 is arranged between the protruding portion 35 and the supporting feet 221. When the compressor 22 is working, it will generate vibration. The buffer pad 26 is used for buffering the vibration generated by the compressor 22 when the compressor 22 is working, so as to reduce the vibration transmitted from the compressor 22 to the supporting plate 30.

[0075] The second fastener passes through the second fixing hole 351 on the support leg 221, the buffer pad 26 and the protrusion 35, and the nut is threadedly engaged with the second fastener to sandwich the support leg 221, the buffer pad 26 and the supporting plate 30 of the compressor 22 between the nut and the screw head of the second fastener, thereby fixing the support leg 221, the buffer pad 26 and the supporting plate 30 together.

[0076] Specifically, when the components of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 are assembled together, the support leg 221, the buffer pad 26 and the supporting plate 30 of the compressor 22 are first fixed together by the second fastener and the nut, and then the supporting plate 30 is fixed to the connecting portion 12. At this time, the nut is located in the recess. Since the at least two fixing portions are located in the region where the supporting plate 30 overlaps with one of the connecting portions 12, at least two nuts are located above the connecting portion 12 when the supporting plate 30 is fixed to the connecting portion 12. By accommodating the nut in the recess, the nut is prevented from interfering with the connecting portion 12.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG. 5, the middle portion of the supporting plate 30 in the length direction is provided with a clamping portion 36, and the variable frequency assembly 23 of the compressor is provided with a mating portion which is clamped and matched with the clamping portion 36. By clamping and matching the clamping portion 36 with the mating portion, the variable frequency assembly 23 of the compressor is fixed to the supporting plate 30.

[0078] The variable frequency assembly 23 of the compressor is laid flat on the middle portion of the supporting plate 30, and the height of the variable frequency assembly 23 in the up-down direction is small, so as to reasonably utilize the space between the laundry treating drum assembly 21 and the supporting plate 30.

[0079] In some embodiments, one of the clamping portion 36 and the mating portion is formed as a clamping hole, and the other is formed as a clamping claw which is clamped and matched with the clamping hole, so as to facilitate the fixing of the variable frequency assembly 23 of the compressor to the supporting plate 30.

[0080] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the clamping portion 36 on the supporting plate 30 is formed as a clamping hole, and the mating portion on the variable frequency assembly 23 of the compressor is formed as a clamping claw. The clamping hole includes a first hole portion 361 and a second hole portion 362. The size of the first hole portion 361 is greater than that of the second hole portion 362, and the second hole portion 362 is located in front of the first hole portion 361.
