[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this disclosure.

[0036] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another component, it can be directly on or indirectly on that other component. When a component is referred to as being "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to that other component.

[0037] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this disclosure, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise expressly specified.

[0038] In this disclosure, references to "one embodiment," "some embodiments," or "embodiment" mean that one or more embodiments of this disclosure include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment. Therefore, phrases such as "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," "in still other embodiments," etc., appearing in different parts of this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. Furthermore, in one or more embodiments, specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner.

[0039] In the garment handling device, a drum assembly is housed within a housing frame, and a washing chamber is formed within the drum assembly for placing the garments to be washed. When the garment handling device is in operation, the inner drum of the drum assembly rotates, causing the garments to be washed and / or the washing liquid located within the washing chamber to move within the washing chamber.

[0040] When the clothes to be washed move within the washing chamber, the clothes and / or washing liquid collide with the inner wall of the washing chamber, causing the outer drum in the drum assembly to vibrate. This can lead to the drum assembly easily colliding with other functional modules in the garment processing device, such as the housing frame, water inlet pipe, and drying assembly, resulting in increased operating noise and affecting the lifespan of the garment processing device. In some embodiments, in certain garment processing devices, the drying assembly is located between the top plate of the drum assembly and the housing frame. When the garment processing device is operating, the inner drum of the drum assembly rotates, and the outer drum of the drum assembly vibrates within the housing frame. If the distance between the drum assembly and the drying assembly is less than the vibration stroke of the drum assembly, the vibrating drum assembly will collide with the drying assembly.

[0041] This disclosure provides a garment processing device, cleaning equipment, and cleaning system, aiming to solve the technical problem that the bobbin assembly is prone to colliding with other functional modules.

[0042] It should be noted that the garment processing device includes multiple functional modules. In some embodiments, the garment processing device includes a housing frame, a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe, a drying assembly, and a drum assembly. The "other functional modules" mentioned in the embodiments of this disclosure refer to functional modules in the garment processing device that are distinct from the drum assembly.

[0043] To illustrate the technical solution of this disclosure, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6. This embodiment of the present disclosure provides a clothing processing device 1, including a box frame 11 and a tube assembly 12.

[0045] The housing frame 11 has a mounting cavity (not shown in the figure); the cylindrical assembly 12 is housed in the mounting cavity, and the outer surface of the cylindrical assembly 12 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the mounting cavity; the outer surface of the cylindrical assembly 12 includes a first main body portion 1231 and a first clearance portion 1232, and in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 (dashed line in the figure) is less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. It can be understood that the box frame 11 includes a top plate 111, a first side plate 112, a second side plate 113, a rear panel (not shown in the figure), and a front door panel 114. The first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113 are respectively connected to the two opposite edges of the top plate 111. The first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113 are both connected to the rear panel. The ends of the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113 that are opposite to the rear panel are both connected to the front door panel 114, so that the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, the second side plate 113, the rear panel, and the front door panel 114 enclose and form an installation cavity.

[0047] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, it can be understood that the tubular assembly 12 is generally a cylindrical structure. The tubular assembly 12 has a washing chamber 121 and a clothes-receiving opening 122 connecting to the washing chamber 121. The axial direction and central axis of the tubular assembly 12 are parallel to the distribution direction of the washing chamber 121 and the clothes-receiving opening 122, while the radial direction of the tubular assembly 12 is perpendicular to the central axis. The tubular assembly 12 is housed within the mounting cavity, and its axial direction is parallel to the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113. The tubular assembly 12 is spaced apart from the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, the second side plate 113, the back panel, and the front door panel 114 to ensure a safe distance between the tubular assembly 12 and the housing frame 11.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 3. It should be noted that when the clothing handling device 1 is working, the items to be washed and / or the washing liquid in the washing chamber 121 collide with the inner wall of the washing chamber 121, causing the drum assembly 12 to vibrate mainly in the radial direction. This makes it more likely that the drum assembly 12 will collide with the top plate 111 (or the functional module located between the drum assembly 12 and the top plate 111), the first side plate 112 (or the functional module located between the drum assembly 12 and the first side plate 112), and the second side plate 113 (or the functional module located between the drum assembly 12 and the second side plate 113) in the housing frame 11. In this disclosure, the outer surface of the cylindrical assembly 12 includes an outer side surface surrounding the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 can be disposed opposite to at least one of the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, and the second side plate 113 to increase the safe distance between the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, and the second side plate 113 and the cylindrical assembly 12, so as to prevent the cylindrical assembly 12 from colliding with at least one of the top plate 111 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the top plate 111), the first side plate 112 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the first side plate 112), and the second side plate 113 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the second side plate 113) in the box frame 11.

[0049] In the garment processing device 1 provided in the first aspect embodiment of this disclosure, since the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 in the radial direction is less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the inner wall of the mounting cavity is greater than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the inner wall of the mounting cavity. This increases the safety distance between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the housing frame 11, making it less likely for the cylindrical assembly 12 to collide with the housing frame 11. Alternatively, it increases the safety distance between the cylindrical assembly 12 and other functional modules located between the housing frame 11 and the first clearance portion 1232, making it less likely for the cylindrical assembly 12 to collide with other functional modules. This reduces the operating noise of the garment processing device 1 and extends its service life.

[0050] It should be noted that, in this disclosure, the position of the first clearance portion 1232 on the outer surface of the cylinder assembly 12 can be adjusted according to the position of the functional module that needs to be clearance. For example, in the embodiments shown in Figures 3 and 4, the drying component 13 is located between the cylinder assembly 12 and the top plate 111. To increase the safe distance between the cylinder assembly 12 and the drying component 13, the first clearance portion 1232 needs to be positioned relative to the drying component 13. Similarly, in other embodiments, to increase the safe distance between the cylinder assembly 12 and the first side plate 112, the first clearance portion 1232 needs to be positioned relative to the first side plate 112. Since the position of the first clearance portion 1232 on the outer surface of the cylinder assembly 12 can be adjusted according to the position of the functional module that needs to be clearance, in some embodiments the first clearance portion 1232 and its adjacent first main body portion 1231 can be distributed along the circumference of the cylinder assembly 12, and in other embodiments the first clearance portion 1232 and its adjacent first main body portion 1231 can also be distributed along the axial direction of the cylinder assembly 12.

[0051] It is understood that, since the cylindrical assembly 12 is generally a cylindrical structure, in this disclosure, the first main body portion 1231 is an arc surface protruding radially away from the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. In this disclosure, the first clearance portion 1232 can be a curved surface (see Figures 6, 7 and 8), a plane (see Figures 9 and 10), or a combination of a plane and a curved surface (see Figures 11, 12 and 13). It is required that, in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 is less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0052] When the first clearance portion 1232 is a curved surface, in order to ensure that the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 in the radial direction is less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12, it is necessary to define the protrusion direction of the first clearance portion 1232 and the diameter or radius of curvature of the first clearance portion 1232.

[0053] Referring to Figure 6, in some embodiments, the first clearance portion 1232 is an arcuate surface recessed relative to the first main body portion 1231 towards the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 and the adjacent first main body portion 1231 are distributed along the axial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 is an arcuate surface protruding radially away from the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. The diameter of the first clearance portion 1232 is smaller than the diameter of the first main body portion 1231, such that in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 can be smaller than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 7. In some embodiments, the first clearance portion 1232 is an arc surface recessed relative to the first main body portion 1231 towards the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 and the adjacent first main body portion 1231 are distributed along the circumference of the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 is an arc surface recessed along the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12 towards the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12, such that in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 can be less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 8. In some embodiments, the first clearance portion 1232 and the first main body portion 1231 are distributed circumferentially along the cylindrical assembly 12. The first clearance portion 1232 is an arc surface protruding radially away from the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. The radius of curvature of the first clearance portion 1232 is greater than the radius of curvature of the first main body portion 1231, so that in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the distance from the first clearance portion 1232 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 can be less than the distance from the first main body portion 1231 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 9. In some embodiments, when the first avoidance portion 1232 is planar, the first avoidance portion 1232 and the adjacent first main body portion 1231 can be distributed along the circumference of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 10. In some embodiments, when the first clearance portion 1232 is planar, the first clearance portion 1232 and the adjacent first main body portion 1231 may also be distributed along the axial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 11. In some embodiments, the first avoidance portion 1232 is a mixture of planar and curved surfaces. The first avoidance portion 1232 includes an avoidance plane 12321 and an avoidance curved surface 12322. The avoidance plane 12321 and the avoidance curved surface 12322 are distributed along the circumference of the cylindrical assembly 12. The avoidance curved surface 12322 may be an arc surface that is recessed along the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12 and close to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 12. In some embodiments, the first avoidance portion 1232 is a combination of a plane and a curved surface. The first avoidance portion 1232 includes an avoidance plane 12321 and an avoidance curved surface 12322. The avoidance plane 12321 and the avoidance curved surface 12322 are distributed along the axial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12. The avoidance curved surface 12322 may also be an arc surface that is recessed along the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12 close to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 13. In some embodiments, the first avoidance portion 1232 is a combination of a plane and a curved surface. The first avoidance portion 1232 includes an avoidance plane 12321 and an avoidance curved surface 12322. The avoidance plane 12321 and the avoidance curved surface 12322 are distributed along the axial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12. The avoidance curved surface 12322 may also be an arc surface that protrudes radially away from the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. In the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the first main body portion 1231 protrudes from the avoidance curved surface 12322.

[0061] Referring to Figures 5 and 6, in some embodiments, the cylindrical assembly 12 includes an outer cylinder 123 and a counterweight 124; a first main body portion 1231 and a first clearance portion 1232 are constructed on the outer cylinder 123; the counterweight 124 is connected to the outer cylinder 123, and the outer surface of the counterweight 124 includes a second main body portion 1241 and a second clearance portion 1242. The distance from the second clearance portion 1242 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12 is less than the distance from the second main body portion 1241 to the central axis of the cylindrical assembly 12. In the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly 12, the first clearance portion 1232 protrudes from the second clearance portion 1242, or, in the radial direction of the cylindrical assembly, the first clearance portion 1232 is flush with the second clearance portion 1242.

[0062] It should be noted that the balance block 124 in the drum assembly 12 is an important balancing structure, mainly used to reduce the vibration of the drum assembly 12 during operation of the garment handling device 1, so as to ensure the stable operation of the garment handling device 1. The balance block 124 is usually installed on the rear end face (the surface of the outer drum 123 facing the back panel) of the outer drum assembly 12, and balances the center of gravity of the drum assembly 12 by adding weight. When the inner drum in the drum assembly 12 rotates, the items to be washed and / or the washing liquid will collide with the inner wall of the washing chamber 121, causing the outer drum 123 in the drum assembly 12 to vibrate. The balance block 124 can effectively reduce the vibration of the drum assembly 12.

[0063] In the above embodiment, the balance block 124 moves synchronously with the cylinder assembly 12. Through its weight and position design, the vibration amplitude of the cylinder assembly 12 can be significantly reduced, which not only improves the operational stability of the garment processing device 1, but also extends the service life of the garment processing device 1.

[0064] In the above embodiment, the balance block 124 can be fixed to the outer cylinder 123 by bolts to ensure that the connection between the balance block 124 and the outer cylinder 123 will not loosen during operation.

[0065] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the outer surface of the balance block 124 includes a second main body portion 1241 and a second clearance portion 1242. The distance from the second clearance portion 1242 to the central axis of the tube assembly 12 is less than the distance from the second main body portion 1241 to the central axis of the tube assembly 12. In the radial direction of the tube assembly 12, the first clearance portion 1232 protrudes from the second clearance portion 1242, or, in the radial direction of the tube assembly, the first clearance portion 1232 is flush with the second clearance portion 1242. This makes it less likely for the balance block 124 to collide with other functional modules, thereby reducing the operating noise of the clothing processing device 1 and extending the service life of the clothing processing device 1.

[0066] It should be noted that, in the radial direction of the cylinder assembly 12, the first clearance portion 1232 being flush with the second clearance portion 1242 means that, in the radial direction of the cylinder assembly 12, the first clearance portion 1232 and the second clearance portion 1242 are aligned; and in the radial direction of the cylinder assembly 12, the first clearance portion 1232 and the second clearance portion 1242 are equidistant from the central axis of the cylinder assembly 12.

[0067] Please refer to Figures 3 and 4. In some embodiments, the box frame 11 includes a top plate 111, and a first clearance portion 1232 is opposite to and spaced apart from the top plate 111.

[0068] Please refer to Figures 3 and 4. In some embodiments, the garment handling device 1 further includes a drying assembly 13, which is located between the drum assembly 12 and the top plate 111. The first clearance portion 1232 is opposite to and spaced apart from the lower surface of the drying assembly 13.

[0069] In some embodiments, the distance between the first clearance portion 1232 and the drying component 13 is greater than 15 mm.

[0070] In some embodiments, a plurality of first avoidance portions 1232 are provided, and the plurality of first avoidance portions 1232 are respectively positioned one-to-one opposite to the top plate 111, the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113 and are spaced apart.

[0071] In the above embodiment, multiple first avoidance portions 1232 are respectively positioned one-to-one opposite to the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, and the second side plate 113 and spaced apart. This can increase the safe distance between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the top plate 111, the first side plate 112, and the second side plate 113, so as to prevent the cylindrical assembly 12 from colliding with the top plate 111 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the top plate 111), the first side plate 112 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the first side plate 112), and the second side plate 113 (or the functional module located between the cylindrical assembly 12 and the second side plate 113) in the box frame 11.
