Description

A multifunctional integrated cleaning appliance all-in-one machine

technical field

The invention relates to a cleaning appliance for washing and drying clothes, in particular to an all-in-one cleaning appliance with a washbasin.

Background technique

As the seasons change in temperature and temperature, people will increase or decrease their clothes accordingly. Generally speaking, people wear more clothes in autumn and winter, and the cleaning of clothes will depend more on the washing of fully automatic washing machines and the drying of tumble dryers; while in spring and summer, people wear thinner clothes, and people will get used to putting small and thin clothes Simply wash it in the washbasin, and then hang it to dry, which saves energy and is convenient and quick. Therefore, in Chinese urban residents' families, washing machines, clothes dryers and washbasins are usually equipped for daily cleaning.

However, the common washing machines, tumble dryers and washbasins currently available on the market are all independent structures, and the placement positions are relatively scattered, thus occupying a large living room space. Moreover, the water inlet and outlet pipes of the washing machine and the washbasin are also independently distributed, which causes the complexity of the pipe layout. For residents with smaller living areas, such defects will be more obvious.

The defects of the relatively independent structure of the above-mentioned washing machine, drum dryer, and washbasin are also reflected in some student dormitory buildings. When the clothes are wet or the clothes are sweaty during outdoor sports, they need to be washed and changed urgently, and then worn after drying. However, because it is a room where multiple people live together, even if the living conditions are better now, and students have the desire to invest in joint ventures to purchase public cleaning appliances, the area occupied by washing machines, tumble dryers, and wash basins is too large to accommodate Not possible in smaller dormitories.

It can be seen from the above that all products appearing at present are single products, and consumers are struggling to find home appliances suitable for their families. Therefore, a reasonable combination of functions is a major trend in the development of electrical appliances, and it is also a life philosophy to realize resource conservation through resource integration.

For this reason, people design a kind of washing machine with washbasin, as the "washing machine with washbasin installation structure" that Chinese patent authorization announcement number is CN2832876Y, disclose a kind of washing machine body top exposure in this patent document. There is a washbasin hinged at the top, and the washbasin is uncovered to expose the inlet of the washing machine, so that clothes can be put in or taken out. Also have " the washing machine that has washing table basin " that Chinese patent authorization announcement number is CN2464758Y, this type of washing machine mainly adopts the drum washing machine of front-loading type, and a washing table basin is embedded on the top of this drum washing machine, and Both share a sewer. Apparently, compared with the above-mentioned dispersed structure, this structure combining the washing basin and the washing machine saves space to a certain extent and increases the efficiency of the living area.

But careful analysis shows that this combined structure still has the following deficiencies: for the former, because the use of the washbasin and the washing machine are mutually restricted to a certain extent, and the bottom of the washbasin is connected with an outlet pipe, if the washbasin is rotated repeatedly, On the one hand, it hinders the flexible rotation of the washbasin, and on the other hand, it also damages the water outlet pipe. For the latter, first of all, there is a defect that the washing table is too high and inconvenient to use. This is because the drum washing machine rotates at a high speed during dehydration. A thick weight block is attached above the shock-absorbing column and the outer tub, so the overall height of the drum washing machine is limited by the structure, and it will also increase with the increase of the laundry capacity. For example, the smallest drum washing machine of Haier in 2007 (the model without drying function is XQG50-E700, the model with drying function is XQG50-HDB1000, and the washing capacity is 5.0 kg) is 850 mm high. At present, the depth of the washbasin used in people's life is 130-180mm, and the height of the outlet joint at the bottom of the washbasin is about 60mm. The general height of 800-850 washbasin. For underage students, it is even more unfavorable to use. Secondly, if will overcome above-mentioned defective, firstly be to reduce the integral height of drum washing machine, promptly dwindle rotating tub diameter. However, since the drum washing machine cleans the clothes by using the clothes to fall from a height and hit the water surface during the tumbling process, a drum with too small diameter will not be able to make the clothes tumbling, thereby greatly reducing the washing rate and losing Advantages of drum laundry. Furthermore, the cost of the drum washing machine is high, and the same energy consumption and cleaning time are worse than those of the pulsator type fully automatic washing machine. In view of above-mentioned reasons, so there is no such washing machine with washbasin on the existing market.

In order to meet people's living needs, the above-mentioned drum-type washing machines that have appeared on the market recently also have models with higher technical content with a drying function. A clothes storage barrel, on the one hand, cannot wash and dry clothes at the same time, which hinders people from washing and drying clothes at the same time, so that it takes more time to wash and dry clothes under the same conditions. On the other hand, for a drum washing machine with a drying function, during the process of washing, dehydrating and re-drying the clothes in the drum, while the hot air is drying the clothes, it must be added to dry the undehydrated clothes on the clothes storage drum. The water droplets, as well as the large area of water droplets that have not been drained in the water storage tank and some of the accumulated water that have not been drained, so each time drying requires more time and more energy consumption, which leads to the disadvantage of high use cost. And because the structure of the drum washing machine itself is complicated, and the structure with a drying function is added, the manufacturing cost is high, and the sales price is also very high, so it can only adapt to a small number of people with higher consumption capacity.
