[0068] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0069] Because the clothes washing drum is in a closed and humid environment for a long time, it is easy for bacteria and mold to grow, which will affect the washing effect of clothes and cause harm to the human body.
[0070] Based on this, this application provides a clothing processing device. By setting a fresh air structure between the box and the clothing processing drum, the fresh air component of the fresh air structure is connected to the box and the detergent box inside the box. The air inlet of the fresh air component is connected to the inner cavity of the box, and the air outlet of the fresh air component is connected to the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum through a ventilation pipe. This allows air from the box to enter the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum through the air inlet, air outlet, and ventilation pipe, thereby drying the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum. This can, to a certain extent, avoid the problem of bacteria and mold easily growing inside the clothing processing drum, while improving the stability of the fresh air structure.
[0071] The garment processing equipment provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0072] Referring to Figures 1 to 13, this embodiment provides a clothing processing device, including a housing 1, a clothing processing drum 2, a detergent box 3, and a fresh air structure 4.
[0073] The laundry handling drum 2, detergent box 3, and fresh air structure 4 are all located inside the housing 1, and the fresh air structure 4 and detergent box 3 are located outside the laundry handling drum 2.
[0074] The fresh air structure 4 includes a ventilation duct 41 and a fresh air assembly 42. The fresh air assembly 42 is connected to the housing 1 and the detergent box 3 respectively. The fresh air assembly 42 has an air inlet 421 and an air outlet 422 that are connected to each other. The air inlet 421 is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 1. The two ends of the ventilation duct 41 are connected to the air outlet 422 and the inner cavity of the clothes handling drum 2 respectively, so that the air in the housing 1 can enter the inner cavity of the clothes handling drum 2 through the air inlet 421, the air outlet 422 and the ventilation duct 41.
[0075] Specifically, housing 1 is the outer shell of the entire garment processing equipment. The garment processing drum 2 and detergent box 3 are located inside housing 1. The inner cavity of the garment processing drum 2 is used to hold garments and to perform operations such as washing or drying them. The detergent box 3 is used to hold detergent.
[0076] The fresh air structure 4 is located inside the housing 1 and on the outside of the entire clothing processing cylinder 2. It is used to realize the fresh air function in the clothing processing cylinder 2, that is, to perform drying or purification operations in the clothing processing cylinder 2.
[0077] For example, when fresh air operation is required, the air in the housing 1 can enter the fresh air component 42 through the air inlet 421, and then be transported to the clothes processing drum 2 through the air outlet 422 and the ventilation pipe 41 to dry the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2. This avoids the problem of bacteria or mold growing easily in the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2 due to a long-term humid environment, thus ensuring the washing effect while avoiding the harm to the human body caused by the residue of bacteria and mold.
[0078] It should be noted that the air inlet 421 is connected to the inner cavity of the housing 1, so that air inside the housing 1 enters the fresh air assembly 42 through the air inlet 421. The air inside the housing 1 can be the air outside the clothes handling drum 2, or the air in the external environment where the housing 1 is located. That is, external air enters the clothes handling drum 2 through the fresh air structure 4 to provide fresh air into the clothes handling drum 2.
[0079] In this embodiment, the fresh air assembly 42 is connected to both the housing 1 and the detergent dispenser 3, thereby achieving dual fixation of the fresh air assembly 42. Compared to the method where the fresh air assembly 42 is only connected to the housing 1, connecting the fresh air assembly 42 to both the housing 1 and the detergent dispenser 3 simultaneously can effectively improve the connection stability of the fresh air assembly 42.
[0080] In addition, since the housing 1 itself is fixed, the fresh air component 42 is connected to the housing 1, which makes the installation of the fresh air component 42 more stable and effectively prevents the fresh air component 42 from falling off.
[0081] The garment processing device in this embodiment can be a washing machine, such as a front-loading washing machine or a top-loading washing machine. Alternatively, the garment processing device can also be a washer-dryer combo, a garment care machine, etc., but this embodiment is not limited to these.
[0082] The clothing processing device of this embodiment includes a housing 1, a clothing processing drum 2, a detergent dispenser 3, and a fresh air structure 4. The clothing processing drum 2, detergent dispenser 3, and fresh air structure 4 are all housed within the housing 1, with the fresh air structure 4 and detergent dispenser 3 positioned outside the clothing processing drum 2. The fresh air structure 4 includes a ventilation duct 41 and a fresh air assembly 42. The air inlet 421 of the fresh air assembly 42 communicates with the inner cavity of the housing 1, and the air outlet 422 of the fresh air assembly 42 communicates with the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum 2 through the ventilation duct 41. This allows air from the housing 1 to enter the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum 2 through the air inlet 421, air outlet 422, and ventilation duct 41, effectively drying the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum 2. This helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold within the clothing processing drum 2, ensuring effective washing while avoiding the harmful effects of residual bacteria and mold. Furthermore, by connecting the fresh air component 42 to both the housing 1 and the detergent box 3, the connection stability of the fresh air structure 4 can be greatly improved, thus avoiding the risk of falling and ensuring the delivery of fresh air into the clothes handling drum 2.
[0083] Referring to Figures 1, 2 and 4, in some embodiments, the housing 1 has a crossbeam 11, and the fresh air assembly 42 is connected to the crossbeam 11.
[0084] In practice, a crossbeam 11 can be installed on the box 1, and the crossbeam 11 itself can play a role in improving the structural strength of the box 1.
[0085] The fresh air component 42 is connected to the crossbeam 11, which not only enables a reliable connection between the fresh air component 42 and the housing 1, but also solves the problem that the housing 1 is too thin to be convenient to connect and assemble with the fresh air component 42.
[0086] For example, the crossbeam 11 can be fixed to the housing 1 first by fasteners such as screws, and then the fresh air assembly 42 can be connected to the crossbeam 11.
[0087] For example, the crossbeam 11 can specifically be a plate-like member.
[0088] Referring to Figures 2 to 5, in some embodiments, a door seal 21 is provided on the front side of the garment processing tube 2, and the door seal 21 has a door seal hole 211 communicating with the inner cavity of the garment processing tube 2. The end of the ventilation pipe 41 facing away from the air outlet 422 is connected to the door seal hole 211.
[0089] The crossbeam 11 extends along the width direction of the housing 1 (refer to the x direction shown in Figure 2), and the crossbeam 11 is located above the door seal 21.
[0090] The air discharged through the air outlet 422 is sequentially transported through the ventilation pipe 41 and the door seal hole 211 to the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2. In this way, the ventilation pipe 41 and the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2 can be effectively connected by the door seal hole 211 on the door seal 21, without the need to set an additional opening on the clothes processing drum 2, thus saving manufacturing process and cost.
[0091] Meanwhile, the crossbeam 11 is located above the door seal 21. This arrangement allows the fresh air assembly 42 connected to the crossbeam 11 to be closer to the door seal 21, so that the ventilation duct 41 can be connected to the door seal hole 211 and the air outlet 422 respectively. This can effectively shorten the length of the ventilation duct 41, making the pipeline inside the housing 1 more concise and orderly. At the same time, it can also reduce the airflow resistance in the ventilation duct 41 to a certain extent, thereby improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0092] Specifically, when the crossbeam 11 is positioned above the door seal 21, the crossbeam 11 can be connected to the top surface of the front wall of the housing 1 for easy assembly. It should be noted that the front wall of the housing 1 refers to the side wall facing the user when the clothing processing equipment is in use.
[0093] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the detergent box 3 is located on one side of the housing 1 in the width direction (refer to the x direction shown in Figure 2), and a corner area 12 is defined between the detergent box 3 and the crossbeam 11, with the fresh air assembly 42 located within the corner area 12.
[0094] By placing the fresh air assembly 42 within the corner area 12 formed by the crossbeam 11 and the detergent dispenser 3, the space of the corner area 12 is effectively utilized. This avoids the situation where the cabinet 1 becomes too large due to the placement of the fresh air structure 4, which is beneficial for the clothing processing equipment to achieve the fresh air function while moving towards miniaturization. Moreover, this allows the fresh air assembly 42 to be placed close to both the crossbeam 11 and the detergent dispenser 3, making assembly more convenient and stable. In addition, the corner area 12 can provide a certain degree of buffer protection for the fresh air structure 4. If the cabinet 1 is accidentally impacted, the risk of damage to the fresh air structure 4 due to its location within the corner area can be reduced to some extent.
[0095] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the detergent dispenser 3 is connected to the crossbeam 11.
[0096] In practice, since the housing 1 of the mounting beam 11 is fixed, the detergent box 3 is more stable when it is connected to the beam 11. Therefore, the installation stability of the fresh air assembly 42 connected to the detergent box 3 can be further ensured, so as to effectively prevent the fresh air assembly 42 from falling off.
[0097] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2, the detergent box 3 is provided with a slot 31, and the crossbeam 11 is engaged in the slot 31 to facilitate a reliable connection between the detergent box 3 and the crossbeam 11.
[0098] Furthermore, the detergent dispenser 3 and the crossbeam 11 can be fixedly connected by screws or bolts to further improve the stability of the connection between the detergent dispenser 3 and the crossbeam 11.
[0099] Referring to FIG4, in some embodiments, the outer wall of the clothes processing drum 2 is provided with a return air port 22 that communicates with the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2, and the return air port 22 is connected to the detergent box 3.
[0100] In other words, the air inside the housing 1 is sequentially transported to the clothes processing drum 2 through the air inlet 421, the air outlet 422 and the ventilation pipe 41. After flowing through the clothes processing drum 2, the air can be sequentially discharged outside the housing 1 through the air return port 22 and the detergent box 3, thereby realizing air circulation, which can accelerate the drying efficiency inside the clothes processing drum 2 and effectively remove odors from the clothes processing drum 2.
[0101] In practice, the clothes processing drum 2 includes an inner drum and an outer drum sleeved on the outside of the inner drum. A water passage gap is formed between the inner drum and the outer drum. Specifically, the air return port 22 can be set on the top wall of the outer drum to prevent washing water or washing foam from being discharged outside the clothes processing drum 2 through the air return port 22 to a certain extent.
[0102] To further prevent washing water or washing foam from entering the return air port 22, a control valve can be installed in the return air port 22. The control valve can control the opening of the return air port 22 when the fresh air structure 4 is working.
[0103] Referring to Figures 1 to 5, in some embodiments, a support member 5 is provided inside the housing 1, and the fresh air assembly 42 is connected to the housing 1 and the detergent box 3 respectively through the support member 5.
[0104] In practice, the fresh air component 42 can be connected to the support 5 first, and then the support 5, which integrates the fresh air component 42, can be connected to the housing 1 and the detergent box 3 respectively, which improves the convenience of connection.
[0105] For example, the support member 5 may be made of metal or alloy to ensure that the support member 5 has sufficient structural strength, thereby ensuring assembly stability.
[0106] Referring to Figures 1 to 5, in some embodiments, the support member 5 is located between the air inlet 421 and the inner wall of the housing 1.
[0107] An opening 51 is provided on the support member 5 at a position corresponding to the air inlet 421. The opening 51 is connected to the air inlet 421 and the inner cavity of the box 1 respectively.
[0108] This arrangement allows the support member 5 to separate the air inlet 421 from the inner wall of the housing 1 to a certain extent, ensuring that there is a sufficient gap between the air inlet 421 and the inner wall of the housing 1, that is, the air inlet 421 will not be too close to the inner wall of the housing 1, so as to reduce the wind resistance of air entering the fresh air assembly 42 through the opening 51 and the air inlet 421, thereby improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0109] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, in some embodiments, the support member 5 has a recessed groove 53 on the side opposite to the air inlet 421. The recessed groove 53 is recessed in the direction of the air inlet 421, and the opening 51 is formed at the bottom 531 of the recessed groove 53.
[0110] This arrangement increases the gap between the support 5 and the inner wall of the housing 1, that is, increases the gap between the opening 51 and the inner wall of the housing 1, thereby further increasing the gap between the air inlet 421 and the inner wall of the housing 1. This further reduces the air resistance as air enters the fresh air assembly 42 through the air inlet 421, thereby improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0111] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, in some embodiments, the opening 51 is located between the air inlet 421 and the top wall of the housing 1, and the opening 51 is oriented toward the top wall of the housing 1.
[0112] For example, the height direction of the clothing processing drum 2 can refer to the up and down direction shown in FIG1. Specifically, the support member 5 can be placed above the clothing processing drum 2 and located between the air inlet 421 and the top wall of the housing 1, so as to effectively utilize the space between the clothing processing drum 2 and the top wall of the housing 1 to accommodate the support member 5.
[0113] Meanwhile, the opening 51 on the support member 5 faces the top wall of the box 1, for example, so that the support member 5 is arranged in a posture parallel to the top wall of the box 1, so as to make full use of the internal space of the box 1 and facilitate the miniaturization of the clothing processing equipment.
[0114] For example, when the support member 5 is positioned above the clothing processing tube 2, the groove 53 is recessed downwards, so that the upper surface of the support member 5 forms the groove 53, thereby increasing the gap between the opening 51 and the top wall of the housing 1, reducing the air resistance of air entering the fresh air assembly 42 through the air inlet 421, and thus improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0115] Alternatively, in other implementations, the support 5 can also be positioned below the clothing processing tube 2.
[0116] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the support member 5 has an overlapping portion 52, which overlaps the box body 1 and the detergent box 3 and is connected to the box body 1 and the detergent box 3 respectively.
[0117] This arrangement allows for the pre-fixation of the support component 5 on the housing 1 and the detergent box 3 during assembly, further improving the convenience and efficiency of assembly. Moreover, this arrangement can further enhance the stability of the connection between the support component 5 and the housing 1 and the detergent box 3.
[0118] For example, the overlapping part 52 and the support member 5 can be integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the structural strength of the entire support member 5.
[0119] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the support member 5 includes a support body portion 54, and an overlapping portion 52 is disposed at the edge of the support body portion 54. The side of the support body portion 54 facing away from the air inlet 421 has a recessed groove 53, which is recessed toward the air inlet 421.
[0120] That is, the support member 5 includes a support body 54 and an overlapping part 52 disposed on the outer edge of the support body 54.
[0121] By setting the overlapping part 52, the support member 5 can be pre-fixed on the box 1 and the detergent box 3, thereby further improving the convenience and efficiency of assembly. Moreover, this setting can further improve the stability of the connection between the support member 5 and the box 1 and the detergent box 3.
[0122] By providing a recessed groove 53 on the side of the support body 54 facing away from the air inlet 421, the gap between the air inlet 421 and the inner wall of the housing 1 is increased, thereby reducing the air resistance of air entering the fresh air assembly 42 through the air inlet 421 and improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0123] For example, the support body 54 and the overlapping part 52 can be integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the structural strength of the entire support member 5.
[0124] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the overlapping portion 52 includes a first overlapping edge 521 and a second overlapping edge 522 connected to the first overlapping edge 521, and the first overlapping edge 521 and the second overlapping edge 522 are intersecting. The first overlapping edge 521 is attached to the housing 1, and the second overlapping edge 522 is attached to the detergent dispenser 3. The first overlapping edge 521 and the second overlapping edge 522 are integrally formed.
[0125] That is, the support member 5 is pre-fixed to the box 1 through the first overlapping edge 521, and pre-fixed to the detergent box 3 through the second overlapping edge 522, thereby improving the ease and efficiency of assembly of the support member 5 with the box 1 and the detergent box 3.
[0126] Furthermore, by setting the first overlapping edge 521 and the second overlapping edge 522 to intersect, the ease of overlapping the support member 5 with the box body 1 and the detergent box 3 can be further improved.
[0127] For example, the first overlapping edge 521 and the second overlapping edge 522 can intersect to form an "L" shape as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
[0128] Specifically, the first overlapping edge 521 and the second overlapping edge 522 can be integrally formed to save manufacturing steps and improve the structural strength of the entire overlapping part 52. In addition, the integral overlapping part 52 can make the fresh air structure 4 more stable and the detergent box 4 more stable.
[0129] Referring to FIG3, in some embodiments, the support member 5 is provided with a first connecting hole 55, and the housing 1 is provided with a second connecting hole. The support member 5 is connected to the housing 1 by a first fastener passing through the first connecting hole 55 and the second connecting hole, thereby realizing a reliable connection between the support member 5 and the housing 1.
[0130] For example, one of the first connecting hole 55 and the second connecting hole can be a threaded hole, and the first fastener can be a screw or bolt. Alternatively, both the first connecting hole 55 and the second connecting hole can be smooth holes, and the first fastener can be a fastening pin.
[0131] In addition, the first connecting hole 55 and the second connecting hole can each be set to two or more, with the first connecting hole 55 corresponding to the second connecting hole one by one, so as to further improve the connection reliability between the support member 5 and the housing 1 through the cooperation of two or more first connecting holes 55 and second connecting holes.
[0132] Referring to FIG3, in some embodiments, the support member 5 is provided with a third connecting hole 56, and the detergent box 3 is provided with a fourth connecting hole. The support member 5 is connected to the detergent box 3 by a second fastener passing through the third connecting hole 56 and the fourth connecting hole, thereby achieving a reliable connection between the support member 5 and the detergent box 3.
[0133] For example, one of the third connecting hole 56 and the fourth connecting hole can be a threaded hole, and the second fastener can be a screw or bolt. Alternatively, both the third connecting hole 56 and the fourth connecting hole can be smooth holes, and the second fastener can be a fastening pin.
[0134] In addition, the third connecting hole 56 and the fourth connecting hole can each be set to two or more, with the third connecting hole 56 and the fourth connecting hole corresponding one-to-one, so as to further improve the connection reliability between the support member 5 and the detergent box 3 through the cooperation of two or more third connecting holes 56 and the fourth connecting hole.
[0135] In some embodiments, the support member 5 is provided with a first positioning part 58, and the housing 1 is provided with a second positioning part. The support member 5 is pre-positioned on the housing 1 by the cooperation of the first positioning part 58 and the second positioning part.
[0136] That is, after the positioning and engagement between the support member 5 and the housing 1 are achieved through the first positioning part 58 and the second positioning part, it is convenient to carry out subsequent connection operations, which improves the convenience and efficiency of assembly.
[0137] For example, one of the first positioning part 58 and the second positioning part can be a positioning hole, and the other of the first positioning part 58 and the second positioning part can be a positioning post that is inserted and cooperates with the positioning hole.
[0138] In some embodiments, the support member 5 is provided with a third positioning part 59, and the detergent box 3 is provided with a fourth positioning part. The support member 5 is pre-positioned on the detergent box 3 by the cooperation of the third positioning part 59 and the fourth positioning part.
[0139] That is, after the support member 5 and the detergent box 3 are positioned and matched by the third positioning part 59 and the fourth positioning part, it is convenient to carry out subsequent connection operations, which improves the convenience and efficiency of assembly.
[0140] For example, one of the third positioning part 59 and the fourth positioning part can be a positioning hole, and the other of the third positioning part 59 and the fourth positioning part can be a positioning post that is inserted and cooperates with the positioning hole.
[0141] Referring to Figures 3 and 6, in some embodiments, the fresh air assembly 42 is provided with a first mounting hole 423, and the support member 5 is provided with a second mounting hole 57. The fresh air assembly 42 is connected to the support member 5 through a first fitting that passes through the first mounting hole 423 and the second mounting hole 57, thereby achieving a reliable connection between the support member 5 and the fresh air assembly 42.
[0142] For example, one of the first mounting hole 423 and the second mounting hole 57 can be a threaded hole, and the first mounting component can be a screw or bolt. Alternatively, both the first mounting hole 423 and the second mounting hole 57 can be smooth holes, and the first mounting component can be a fastening pin.
[0143] In addition, the first mounting hole 423 and the second mounting hole 57 can each be set to two or more, with the first mounting hole 423 and the second mounting hole 57 corresponding one-to-one, so as to further improve the connection reliability between the support member 5 and the fresh air component 42 through the cooperation of two or more first mounting holes 423 and second mounting holes 57.
[0144] Referring to Figures 2 to 5, in some embodiments, the ventilation duct 41 can be a flexible duct.
[0145] For example, the ventilation duct 41 can be a rubber tube or a silicone tube, so as to adjust the direction of the ventilation duct 41, thereby facilitating the connection between the air outlet 422 and the clothing processing tube 2, and saving internal space of the box 1 to a certain extent, which is conducive to the miniaturization of clothing processing equipment.
[0146] Alternatively, in other implementations, the ventilation duct 41 can also be a corrugated pipe.
[0147] In some embodiments, a first non-flexible tube 71 may be provided at the air outlet 422 of the fresh air assembly 42. One end of the first non-flexible tube 71 is connected to the air outlet 422, and the other end of the first non-flexible tube 71 is inserted into the ventilation tube 41 and connected to the ventilation tube 41.
[0148] In other words, when the ventilation duct 41 is a flexible duct, in order to facilitate the connection of the flexible duct to the fresh air assembly 42 to achieve communication with the air outlet 422, a first non-flexible duct can be set at the air outlet 422 of the fresh air assembly 42. The rigidity of the first non-flexible duct is greater than that of the ventilation duct 41, so the first non-flexible duct can be directly inserted into the ventilation duct 41, which makes the connection between the two more convenient and stable.
[0149] For example, the first non-flexible tube 71 may be made of plastic or alloy to ensure that it has sufficient strength.
[0150] For example, the first non-flexible tube 71 can be integrally formed with the fresh air component 42, or they can be formed separately and then snapped or welded together.
[0151] In some embodiments, a second non-flexible tube is provided at one end of the ventilation duct 41 facing the door sealing hole 211. One end of the second non-flexible tube is connected to the ventilation duct 41, and the other end of the second non-flexible tube is inserted into the door sealing hole 211 and connected to the door sealing hole 211.
[0152] Since the second non-flexible tube has a higher rigidity than the ventilation tube 41 and the door seal 21, one end of the second non-flexible tube is inserted into the ventilation tube 41 and the other end is inserted into the door seal hole 211 of the door seal 21, thereby facilitating the connection between the ventilation tube 41 and the door seal 21 and ensuring its stability.
[0153] For example, the second non-flexible tube may be made of plastic or alloy to ensure that it has sufficient strength.
[0154] Referring to Figures 3 and 5, in some embodiments, the fresh air assembly 42 includes a fresh air housing 420 and a fan located within the fresh air housing 420.
[0155] Both the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are located on the fresh air casing 420 so that the air in the housing 1 enters the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum 2 through the air inlet 421, the air outlet 422 and the ventilation pipe 41 under the action of the fan.
[0156] This setup utilizes a fan to achieve rapid airflow, effectively drying the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2. This helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold within the drum, ensuring effective washing while minimizing the risk of bacterial and mold residue harming the human body.
[0157] Specifically, the fresh air casing 420 can be connected to both the housing 1 and the detergent box 3, which can greatly improve the connection stability of the fresh air structure 4, avoid the risk of falling, and ensure the delivery of fresh air into the clothes processing drum 2.
[0158] For example, the fan can be a centrifugal fan. In other implementations, the fan can also be an axial fan.
[0159] Referring to Figures 8, 9 and 11, in some embodiments, a one-way structure 6 is provided inside the fresh air casing 420. The one-way structure 6 is used to connect the air inlet 421 with the air outlet 422, or to cut off the connection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422.
[0160] In other words, by setting a one-way structure 6 inside the fresh air casing 420, the connection or disconnection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet casing 44 can be controlled according to different usage scenarios.
[0161] For example, when the fresh air is being operated, the connection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 can be controlled by the one-way structure 6 so that the air can enter the fresh air housing 420 through the air inlet 421 and then be discharged from the air outlet 422, and finally enter the clothes processing drum 2 to dry the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2.
[0162] For example, during the washing operation, the connection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 can be cut off by the one-way structure 6 to prevent foam or washing water in the clothes processing drum 2 from entering the fresh air casing 420 through the air outlet 422 and causing the risk of overflowing foam or water.
[0163] Referring to Figures 9 and 11, in some embodiments, the unidirectional structure 6 includes a valve plate 61 connected to the inner wall of the fresh air housing 420, and the valve plate 61 is movable relative to the fresh air housing 420 to switch between a first position state and a second position state.
[0164] When valve plate 61 is in the first position, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are connected. When valve plate 61 is in the second position, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are disconnected.
[0165] In other words, by setting a valve plate 61 that can move relative to the fresh air housing 420 inside the fresh air housing 420, the valve plate 61 can be switched between different position states according to different usage scenarios, so as to control the connection or disconnection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet housing 44.
[0166] For example, when the fresh air operation is performed, the valve plate 61 can be moved to the first position. At this time, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are connected so that the air enters the fresh air housing 420 through the air inlet 421 and is discharged from the air outlet 422, and finally enters the clothes processing drum 2 to dry the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2.
[0167] For example, when the washing operation is performed, the valve plate 61 can be moved to the second position. At this time, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are disconnected to prevent foam or washing water in the clothes processing drum 2 from entering the fresh air casing 420 through the air outlet 422 and causing the risk of overflowing foam or water.
[0168] Referring to Figures 9 and 11, in some embodiments, the top end of the valve plate 61 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fresh air housing 420, and the bottom end of the valve plate 61 is formed as a free end, so that the valve plate 61 can rotate to a first position under the action of the air entering through the air inlet 421, and can rotate to a second position under the action of gravity.
[0169] When fresh air operation is required, the valve plate 61 can rotate to the first position under the action of air force. At this time, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are connected so that the air can enter the fresh air housing 420 through the air inlet 421 and be discharged from the air outlet 422, and finally enter the clothes processing drum 2 to dry the inner cavity of the clothes processing drum 2.
[0170] When the washing operation is performed, the valve plate 61 rotates and resets to the second position under its own gravity. At this time, the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are disconnected to prevent foam or washing water in the clothes processing drum 2 from entering the fresh air shell 420 through the air outlet 422 and causing the risk of overflowing foam or water.
[0171] In this way, the connection or disconnection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 is achieved by the rotation of the valve plate 61 itself, which is simple in structure and convenient in control.
[0172] For example, the valve plate 61 can be made of thin PC (polycarbonate) material, which allows the valve plate 61 to rotate easily under the action of air wind, so that the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422 are connected.
[0173] Of course, in other implementations, the valve plate 61 can also be configured to move relative to the fresh air housing 420 under the drive of the driving component to switch between different position states, thereby realizing the connection or disconnection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422.
[0174] Referring to Figures 9, 11 and 13, in some embodiments, the valve plate 61 is provided with a rotating lug 611, and the inner wall of the fresh air housing 420 is provided with a hook 427 having a rotating hole 424. The rotating lug 611 is hung in the rotating hole 424 and can rotate relative to the hook 427, thereby realizing the rotation of the valve plate 61 relative to the fresh air housing 420.
[0175] Furthermore, two rotating lugs 611 can be provided, with the two rotating lugs 611 respectively located on opposite sides of the valve plate 61 along the rotation axis of the valve plate 61 (refer to the y direction shown in Figure 9), and two hooks, so as to achieve smooth rotation of the valve plate 61.
[0176] Of course, in other implementations, the one-way structure 6 can also be a one-way solenoid valve, etc.
[0177] Referring to Figures 9 and 11, in some embodiments, a protrusion 425 extending toward the inner cavity of the fresh air housing 420 is provided on the inner wall of the fresh air housing 420, and the protrusion 425 is located between the valve plate 61 and the air inlet 421.
[0178] By providing a protrusion 425 between the valve plate 61 and the air inlet 421, the cross-section of the internal channel of the fresh air casing 420 can be reduced, thereby increasing the airflow velocity at that location to a certain extent. This allows the valve plate 61 to rotate smoothly to the first position under the action of the wind force of the airflow velocity, ensuring the effective delivery of fresh air. At the same time, it can also concentrate the airflow to improve the fresh air efficiency.
[0179] For example, the protrusion 425 can be integrally formed with the fresh air housing 420 to save manufacturing steps and improve the overall structural strength of the fresh air housing 420. Alternatively, the protrusion 425 can be formed separately from the fresh air housing 420 and then snapped together or welded together.
[0180] Referring to Figures 9 and 11, in some embodiments, the protrusion 425 includes an annular flange extending circumferentially along the inner wall of the fresh air housing 420.
[0181] In other words, the protrusion 425 has an annular structure with a central hole, which further improves the wind gathering effect and thus further increases the wind speed, allowing the valve plate 61 to rotate to the first position under the action of wind force of air with a larger flow rate, thereby improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0182] Referring to Figures 9 and 10, in some embodiments, the side of the protrusion 425 facing the valve plate 61 forms a contact surface 426 so that the valve plate 61 fits against the contact surface 426 when it is in the second position state.
[0183] When the valve plate 61 is in the second position, the valve plate 61 is in contact with the contact surface 426, which facilitates the reliable sealing of the internal channel of the fresh air casing 420, thus enabling reliable disconnection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422.
[0184] Referring to Figure 6, in some embodiments, the fresh air casing 420 includes a volute 43 and an outlet casing 44 communicating with the volute 43. The fan is located inside the volute 43, and the air inlet 421 is disposed on the volute 43. The air outlet 422 is disposed on the outlet casing 44. The outlet casing 44 has an air guiding structure 443 to guide the air entering the outlet casing 44 from the volute 43 to the air outlet 422.
[0185] This configuration allows the air entering the air outlet housing 44 to flow towards the air outlet 422 under the guidance of the air guide structure 443, without backflow, thereby increasing the air volume of the air outlet 422 and improving the fresh air efficiency.
[0186] In addition, setting the fresh air casing 420 to include two parts, a volute casing 43 and an air outlet casing 44, also facilitates the assembly operation of the fan within the volute casing 43.
[0187] Specifically, the volute 43 and the air outlet 44 can be connected to the support 5 respectively, so as to achieve connection and cooperation with the housing 1 and the detergent box 3 through the support 5.
[0188] Specifically, the first mounting hole 423 can be provided on the volute 43, in which case the volute 43 can be connected to the support member 5 through the first mounting hole 423. The air outlet casing 44 can be further provided with mounting holes 444 for connection with the support member 5.
[0189] Referring to Figures 6 to 8, in some embodiments, the air outlet housing 44 has a first air duct section 441 and a second air duct section 442 that are connected to each other. One end of the first air duct section 441 is connected to the volute 43, and the second air duct section 442 is connected to the end of the first air duct section 441 that is away from the volute 43. The air outlet 422 is disposed on the second air duct section 442. The air guiding structure 443 is formed on the first air duct section 441.
[0190] In other words, by setting the air guide structure 443 on the first air duct section 441, the air flowing out of the volute 43 enters the air outlet 44 and, under the guidance of the air guide structure 443 in the first air duct section 441, continues to flow smoothly toward the second air duct section 442 and is finally discharged from the air outlet 422.
[0191] The air is guided by the air guide structure 443, which can effectively prevent the air from accumulating in the first air duct section 441 or flowing back towards the volute 43. This can improve the air gathering capacity, reduce the flow resistance, increase the air volume of the air outlet 422, and improve the fresh air efficiency.
[0192] Referring to Figures 6 to 8, in some embodiments, the inner cavity size of the first air duct section 441 gradually decreases along the direction from the first air duct section 441 to the second air duct section 442 to form an air guiding structure 443.
[0193] That is, along the s direction shown in Figure 8, the inner cavity size L of the first air duct section 441 gradually decreases, so that the inner wall of the air duct of the first air duct section 441 facing the fan forms the air guiding structure 443. This arrangement eliminates the need for an additional air guiding structure in the first air duct section 441, thereby simplifying the structure and reducing costs.
[0194] In other implementations, the air guide structure 443 can also be an air guide plate connected to the inner wall of the air outlet shell 44, with the air guide plate tilted toward the air outlet 422 to guide the air entering the air outlet shell 44 to the air outlet 422.
[0195] Referring to FIG8, the unidirectional structure 6 is located at the junction of the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442, so as to connect the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442, or to cut off the connection between the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442.
[0196] This configuration allows for the connection between the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442 via the one-way structure 6 when fresh air operation is needed. This enables air to enter the volute 43 through the air inlet 421, then continue flowing through the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442 towards the air outlet 422, and finally be delivered to the clothes handling drum 2. When fresh air operation is not needed, the connection between the first air duct section 441 and the second air duct section 442 is severed via the one-way structure 6, thus disconnecting the connection between the air inlet 421 and the air outlet 422. The entire operation is not only simple and quick but also structurally simple.
