The atomization generator 203 has the function of sensing the lowest water level, and when the water level is low, the atomization generator 203 cannot contact water, namely, the atomization generator stops working automatically; in order to simplify the structure as much as possible, save materials and reduce the cost, the invention skillfully arranges the overflow opening at the upper part of the atomization water storage device 20 in combination with the function that the atomization generator 203 can sense the low water level, when the water level in the atomization water storage device 20 is higher, the water can enter the washing outer barrel 7 or the drain valve through the overflow opening, thereby avoiding the problem that the safe use is influenced by the overflow of the water to other parts. The technical scheme solves the problem of low water level and high water level judgment in the simplest mode, simplifies components and improves the space utilization efficiency of the washing machine.
Preferably, to more accurately control the minimum water level, one or more probes are fastened to the bottom of the housing of the mist generator 203, and the mist generator 203 can only start operating if none of the probes is submerged in water. The probes are arranged at a distance and extend vertically out of the housing by a certain height, and the atomization generator 203 can be started only if all the probes are submerged in water. The atomization generator 203 has the function of automatic protection when water is cut off, and when the liquid level is low and the probe is above the water level, the atomization generator 203 stops working.
Of course, on the basis of the spirit of the technical solution of the present invention, the liquid level determination device of the atomized water storage device 20 may also be designed by a method of a liquid level meter commonly used in the prior art, that is, the liquid level meter is installed inside the atomized water storage device, and the liquid level meter presets a corresponding minimum liquid level and a corresponding maximum liquid level, so that the liquid level can be controlled within a certain range more accurately. Although this solution is higher in cost than the above-described design of the overflow, the technical problem of water level determination can be solved.
The atomization water storage device 20 is arranged in an idle space between the washing outer barrel 7 and the shell 4 in the structure of the existing washing machine, so that the space of the washing machine is fully utilized, the size of the washing machine is prevented from being further increased, and inconvenience is brought to users.
As a preferable design, the groove 71 is disposed at the bottom of the outer tub 7, and the atomizing unit is disposed at an upper portion of the outer tub 7.
The groove 71 is arranged at the bottom of the outer barrel 7, so that the washing machine can quickly heat the washing water to a required temperature on the premise of saving the water as much as possible, the utilization efficiency of the detergent is improved, and the cleaning rate is improved; the atomization unit is arranged above the outer barrel 7, and after the atomization generator 203 generates atomized water, the atomized water can be conveniently guided into the steam inlet 711 of the groove 7 under the action of height difference potential energy, so that energy consumption is saved.
The inner tub 6 of the washing machine is provided with a plurality of lifting ribs 61, and the outer tub 7 of the washing machine is provided with a damper 300 and a hanging spring 301 which are respectively connected with different parts of the outer frame of the washing machine. The concrete connection mode is as follows: the outer tub 7 has an upper hanging part and a lower connecting part, i.e., an upper part is hung on a side panel or a reinforcing beam of the washing machine via a hanging spring 301, a lower part is connected with a bottom plate of the washing machine via a damper 300 (e.g., a damper), and the damper 300 may also support the outer tub 7 to some extent. The outer barrel 7 is fixedly arranged in the mode, is more stable and reliable, can relieve the vibration of the washing machine in the use process and reduces the noise.
In order to stabilize the structure of the washing machine and reduce the shaking or vibration of the washing machine during operation, a balance weight 500 is further disposed on the outer tub 7 of the washing machine.
