In the practical use process of the clothes treatment equipment, according to the influence of the placing environment of the clothes treatment equipment, such as a room or surrounding objects, the door cover of the clothes treatment equipment needs to be opened along a certain door opening direction, such as a left door or a right door, so that the door is opened more conveniently, and the clothes are taken and placed more conveniently. However, in some related technologies, the door cover of the clothes treatment device is not detachable, and only a left-hand door or only a right-hand door can be opened, so that the placement of the clothes treatment device in the actual use process is limited, and the furniture placement requirements of users cannot be better met.

In other related arts, the clothes treating apparatus has a reversible door cover, but the door cover has complex components, and requires disassembly and assembly of multiple components during reversing, and the disassembly and assembly process is complex, and requires professional technical personnel to operate, and the user cannot replace the door cover by himself/herself. For example, in the solution disclosed in WO2015144236a1, a first fixing portion and a second fixing portion are provided, which are interchangeable, the first fixing portion is provided with a locking structure, the second fixing portion is provided with a hinge structure, and the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are interchanged to realize the switching of the door opening direction when the door opening direction needs to be changed. However, in this solution, after the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are interchanged, since the handle is disposed on the door housing, it is also necessary to rotate the door housing to completely complete the reversing process, which makes the operation still complicated.

In the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, a first mounting portion and a second mounting portion may be respectively disposed on two sides of the door body 10 in the radial direction, and both the first bracket 21 and the second bracket 31 may be mounted on any one of the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion.

After the door opening direction is changed, the attachment position of the lock member 32 is changed, and the position of the operation portion 311 needs to be changed. In the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the operation portion 311 is provided on the second bracket 31, that is, the operation portion 311 is provided integrally with the locking member 32 on the second bracket 31. When the positions of the second bracket assembly 30 and the first bracket assembly 20 are exchanged, the operation part 311 and the locking part 32 can change the installation position at the same time without dismounting many times, the constituent parts of the door body assembly 100 are simple, the number of the dismounting parts required during reversing is small, the dismounting process is reduced, and the operation is simpler and more convenient.

In the present invention, the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion are disposed at two sides of the door body 10 in the radial direction, and the positions where the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion are disposed include, but are not limited to, being symmetrically disposed along the radial direction of the door body 10. Therefore, when the first bracket assembly 20 and the second bracket assembly 30 are mounted on the door body 10, the rotation axes of the door body assembly 100 before and after reversing can be parallel or not parallel, for example, the rotation axis of the door body assembly 100 before reversing can extend along the vertical direction, and the rotation axis of the door body assembly 100 after reversing can extend obliquely relative to the vertical direction.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, the first mounting portion is located on the right side of the door body 10 in the radial direction extending in the up-down direction, and the second mounting portion is located on the left side of the door body 10 in the radial direction extending in the up-down direction. The first bracket assembly 20 is installed at the first installation part, and the second bracket assembly 30 is installed at the second installation part, at this time, the door body assembly 100 is beneficial to realizing the left-hand opening of the door relative to the clothes treatment equipment. When reversing is needed, as shown in fig. 2, the first bracket assembly 20 and the second bracket assembly 30 are detached, and rotate 180 degrees around the door body 10 along the direction indicated by the arrow in fig. 2, so that the first bracket assembly 20 is installed in the second installation part, and the second bracket assembly 30 is installed in the first installation part, at this time, the door body assembly 100 is beneficial to realizing right-opening door relative to the clothes treatment equipment.
