Example 1
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present embodiment provides an automatic lint separating device 1, wherein the automatic lint separating device 1 can automatically separate lint from an air flow, and can filter the lint in the air flow.
In this embodiment, three layers of annular channels are provided in the automatic thread-and-chip separating device 1, from outside to inside, are respectively a suction channel 3 for air to flow in, a separation channel 4 for rotating airflow to flow in and separate thread chips thrown out from the rotating airflow, and an exhaust channel 5 for air to exhaust, and the air turns back and circulates between two adjacent channels. And the air suction channel 3, the separation channel 4 and the exhaust channel 5 are formed by three layers of annular walls which are sleeved at intervals. The three layers of annular walls are a first side wall 12, a separating wall 15 and a second side wall 18 from outside to inside respectively. The space between the first side wall 12 and the separating wall 15 forms the suction channel 3, the separating wall 15 and the second side wall 18 form the separating channel 4, and the second side wall 18 encloses the discharge channel 5.
In this embodiment, the three-layer sleeving structure can be realized only by arranging three layers of sleeving walls, each channel is separated by two side walls at the outer side and the inner side, and the two layers of walls at the outermost layer can be used as the inner side wall of a certain channel and the outer side wall of another layer of wall, so that the material and the space are saved. For example, the separation wall 15 is an inner side wall of the suction passage 3 and an outer side wall of the separation passage 5. The three-layer sleeved channel has a compact structure, reduces the volume of the automatic thread-scrap separating device 1, and reduces materials.
In the present embodiment, a guide structure 2 for guiding the gas to form a rotating gas flow is provided inside the automatic lint separating device 1. The guide structure is arranged at the top end of the separation channel 4 and spans the air suction channel 3 and the separation channel 4, and the guide structure 2 is respectively connected with the air suction channel 3 and the separation channel 4. The gas flows into the guide structure 2 from the gas suction channel 3, flows in the guide structure 2 according to the guide effect of the guide structure 2, is finally discharged by the guide structure 2 to form a rotating gas flow, and the rotating gas flow flows into the separation channel 4 through the guide structure 2. The rotating gas flow flows downwards in the separation channel, and under the centrifugal force of the rotating gas flow, the thread scraps which are heavier than the gas are thrown to the outer edge, touch the separation wall 15 of the separation channel 4 and flow downwards along the trumpet-shaped separation wall 15 with the radial radius gradually reduced to realize the separation of the thread scraps and the gas.
In this embodiment, the guiding structure 2 includes a guiding channel 6, the guiding channel 6 is defined by a side wall 9 extending a certain length, the side wall 9 may define a rectangular guiding channel 6 or a cylindrical guiding channel 6, and may define any shape for the gas to flow inside. The lateral wall 9 of the guide channel 6 is closed, but openings are arranged at two ends of the guide channel 6, one end of the guide channel is provided with a gas inlet 8 for gas to flow in, and the other end of the guide channel is provided with a gas outlet 7 for gas to flow out, so that the gas flows from the gas inlet 8 to the gas outlet 7 along the axis direction of the guide channel 6 in the guide channel 6 and is discharged, and the gas flows along the axis direction of the guide channel 6, so that the guide channel 6 realizes the guide effect on the gas. And the air inlet 8 of the guide channel 6 is connected with the air suction channel 3, so that the air flows into the guide channel 6 from the air suction channel 3, and the air outlet 7 of the guide channel 6 is connected with the separation channel 4, so that the air in the guide channel 6 is discharged to the separation channel 4.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the guiding structure 2 comprises a plurality of guiding channels 6 with a certain extending length distributed along any circumference or spiral line. And the direction of all the guide channels 6 from the air inlet 8 to the air outlet 7 is clockwise or the direction of all the guide channels 6 from the air outlet 7 to the air inlet 8 is counterclockwise. The guide channels 6 are arranged along a circumference or a spiral line, so that the gas passing through the guide channels 6 easily forms a rotating gas flow. And all the guide channels 6 point from the air inlet 8 to the air outlet 7, which can make the rotating airflow flow clockwise or counterclockwise, and prevent the airflow from being possibly disordered and difficult to form the rotating airflow when the partial airflow flows clockwise and the partial airflow flows counterclockwise. And preferably the guide channels 6, which are located on the same radial circumference, are equally spaced along said circumference.
In this embodiment, since the directions of the air suction passage 3 and the guide passage 6 are not parallel but close to a vertical direction, when the guide passage 6 is perpendicular to the direction of the air suction passage 3, the air flowing into the air suction passage 3 hardly flows into the guide passage 6, and when the air suction passage 3 extends in a vertical direction, the axial direction of the guide passage 6 needs to be set to have a certain angle with the horizontal direction. When the included angle between the axis direction of the guide channel 6 and the horizontal direction is large, the gas easily flows out from the guide channel 6 vertically, and the rotary airflow is difficult to form. The guide channel 6 is therefore preferably angled 0-15 deg. from the horizontal. The horizontal direction referred to herein is relative to the horizontal direction of the lint separator itself. When the automatic thread and scrap separating device is placed in the vertical direction as shown in the figure, a certain included angle is formed between the guide channel 6 and the horizontal direction, and when the automatic thread and scrap separating device is placed horizontally, a certain included angle is formed between the guide channel 6 and the vertical direction. In this embodiment, the guide channel is designed to facilitate the inflow of gas.
In the present embodiment, as can be seen from the foregoing, the centrifugal rotational airflow is generated as a key for separating paper dust, and therefore, the structure of the guide passage 6 should be designed to easily generate the centrifugal rotational airflow. As shown in fig. 3, the axis of the guide passage 6 gradually moves away from the circumferential center from the intake port 8 to the exhaust port 7. Namely, the guide channel 6 is projected along the horizontal direction, and the extending direction of the guide channel is oblique line, and the shape of the guide channel is gradually far away from the center of the circumference, so that the gas flowing into the guide channel 6 is conveniently thrown out, and the centrifugal rotating airflow is favorably generated. After the air flow flows out from the guide channel 6, the thread scraps with heavier weight are thrown far away, and the thread scraps fall after directly impacting the separation wall 15 of the separation channel 4, so that the guide channel 6 is gradually far away from the center of the circle, which is also more beneficial to throwing the air flow.
In this embodiment, the separation channel 4 is configured to collect the rotating gas generated by the guiding structure 2, the separation channel 4 has a trumpet-shaped separation wall 15 with a radial section radius gradually decreasing, and the thread scraps thrown out from the rotating gas flow are separated along the separation wall 15. The flared separating wall 15 of the separating channel 4, due to the fact that the separating wall 15 is inclined at an angle, facilitates the thread waste thrown against the separating wall 15 to slide down along the separating wall 15. The radially spaced surface between the bottom end of the separating wall 15 and the bottom end of the second side wall 18 forms a discharge opening 13 of the separating channel 4 for the lint to be discharged. The thread scraps which slip down flow out through the sewage discharge port 13. Due to the separation wall 15 and the trumpet-shaped separation wall 15 with the radial section radius gradually reduced, the rotating airflow is favorable to form ascending airflow at the bottom with the section radius gradually reduced, and the ascending airflow enters the exhaust channel 5 to be exhausted. The structural design of the separating wall in this embodiment facilitates the discharge of lint and facilitates the discharge of a lint-free air stream from the discharge duct 5. The air flow rotates a little in the separation channel 4 and finally forms an ascending air flow at the bottom, which enters the exhaust channel 5 to be discharged. It can be seen that the separating wall 15 extends towards the bottom for a greater length than the second side wall 18; i.e. the separation channel 4 extends to the bottom over a greater length than the exhaust channel 5.
In this embodiment, a seal is required to be disposed at the upper end of the separation channel 4 to ensure that the separation channel 4 is sealed except for the sewage discharge outlet 13, so as to prevent the airflow from flowing out at other positions in the separation channel 4 and being difficult to form a rotating airflow. As can be seen from the foregoing, the guide structure 2 spans the suction channel 3 and the separation channel 4, and is disposed at the top end of the separation channel 4, so that a part of the structure of the guide channel 4 will function as a seal for a part of the separation channel 4. A second closure 14 is thus provided at the top end of said separation channel 4, blocking the radially spaced surfaces between the separation wall 15 and the second side wall 18, except for the part coinciding with the guide construction 2. The guide structure 2 of the present embodiment can save the area of the second enclosure 14 and save materials.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, a first seal 11 is disposed at the top end of the suction channel 3 to seal the radial spacing surface between the top end of the first side wall 12 and the top end of the separation wall 15; the radial spacing between the bottom end of the first side wall 12 and the bottom end of the separating wall 15 forms a first opening 10 of the suction channel 3 for the inflow of gas. The first side wall 12 and the first enclosure 11 are both outer walls of the housing 1, and a round chamfer is arranged on the outer wall of the first enclosure 11 to prevent sharp corners from cutting a person during installation. As can be seen from fig. 1, the suction channel 3 is closed except for the first opening 10, and the first opening 10 can be connected to a gas supply device, so that gas continuously flows into the suction channel 3 through the first opening 10. And the flow of the gas flow is as indicated by the arrows in fig. 1, the gas first forms a vertical upward gas flow from the suction passage 3 into the suction passage 3. Because the top end of the air suction channel 3 is provided with the first closed 11, the air which is vertically upwards cannot be discharged from the air suction channel 3, and the air inlet 8 of the guide channel 6 is arranged in the air suction channel 3, the air which continuously flows in and cannot be discharged can flow into the guide channel 6 through the air inlet 8, and then passes through the air to form the rotating air flow under the action of the guide channel 6. It follows from this that the reason why the first seal 11 must be set in the suction channel 3. And in order to prevent the gas entering the suction channel 3 from flowing directly from the discharge opening 13 into the separation channel 4 without being guided by the guide structure 2 to form the training gas flow, the first side wall 12 extends to the bottom for a shorter length than the separation wall 15. In this embodiment, the structural design of the air suction channel 3 and the guide structure 2 enables the air entering the air suction channel 3 to flow through the guide structure 2 and finally turn back to flow into the separation channel 4, so that the structural design enables the air suction channel 3 and the separation channel 4 to be more compact in structure, and saves space and materials.
In this embodiment, the exhaust passage 5 should be provided at the inner center of the separation passage 4 as seen from the flow of the gas. The second side wall 18, which encloses the exhaust channel 5, is flared with a gradually decreasing radial cross-section, which facilitates the continuous upward discharge of the gas. The bottom end of the second side wall 18 encloses a fourth opening 17 for gas to flow into the exhaust channel 5, and the top end of the second side wall 18 encloses a third opening 16 for gas to exit. From the foregoing, the rotating gas forms an ascending gas flow at the bottom, which enters the exhaust channel 5 through the fourth opening 17 and exits through the third opening 16.
In this embodiment, it is preferable that, as shown in fig. 3, the side wall 9 of the guide channel 6 is connected to the outer wall of the exhaust channel 5 and distributed along any circular radial section of the exhaust channel 5, and the side wall 9 of the guide channel 6 is connected to the outer wall of the exhaust channel 5, so as to reinforce the strength of the exhaust channel 5.
The automatic thread scrap separating device 1 provided by the embodiment has a simpler structure, mainly comprises the guide structure 2, the air suction channel 3, the separation channel 4 and the exhaust channel 5, can be formed only by casting, is convenient to process, does not need to install other parts inside, and is simple to install. The automatic thread scrap separating device 1 of the embodiment can automatically realize the separation of thread scraps by utilizing the ubiquitous air flow in the drying module only by means of the structural design, saves energy and does not need any manual operation.
Example 2
As shown in fig. 4, the present embodiment provides a laundry treating apparatus including a drying module for drying by using a circulating air flow, and the drying module is provided therein with an automatic lint separating apparatus 1 for separating lint from the air flow as described in embodiment 1. The drying module can be used on various devices, particularly on clothes processing equipment, and can remove thread scraps carried on clothes from airflow. The laundry treating apparatus may be a washing and drying all-in-one machine, a dryer, etc.
In this embodiment, a better layout of the automatic lint separating device 1 in the drying module is provided, the drying module is provided with a drying device 19, so that the airflow in the drying module firstly enters the automatic lint separating device 1 and then enters the drying device 19, and the other drying devices 19 include a fan 20, an evaporator 21, a condenser 22, and the like. This prevents the airflow with lint from flowing into the drying device 19 to affect the normal operation of the drying device 19.
In the embodiment, an installation mode of the automatic thread scrap separating device 1 in the drying module is provided. Since the drying module in this embodiment has the air inlet channel 23 for introducing the air flow, the outer wall of the air inlet channel 23 is connected with the first side wall 12 of the automatic lint separating device 1 in a sealing manner, and the air flow of the air inlet channel 23 enters the air suction channel 3. Namely, the first side wall 12 and the air inlet channel 23 of the automatic lint separating device 1 are used for enclosing a structure that only the sewage draining outlet 13 and the air exhaust channel 4 are communicated with the outside. The separation channel 4 of the automatic thread and shred separating device 1 penetrates out of the air inlet channel 23, so that separated thread and shred can be prevented from entering the air inlet channel 23 again, and the thread and shred can be discharged out of the drying system through the sewage outlet 13. The lint-free gas flows out through a third opening 16 in the exhaust duct 5, and the third opening 16 may be connected to other drying means 19 for supplying the lint-free gas to the drying module.
In this embodiment, the drying apparatus provided is installed in the laundry processing device, and can effectively remove lint in the air flow, and can prevent the lint in the air flow from attaching to the drying device, thereby preventing the normal operation of the drying apparatus from being affected. In addition, according to the layout of the drying module provided by the invention, the automatic lint separating device 1 is arranged at the front end of all the drying devices 19 in the air passage, and particularly, the fan 20 is arranged behind the automatic lint separating device 1, so that the fan 20 can be used for providing power to enable air flow to continuously flow into the automatic lint separating device 1, and the automatic lint separating device 1 is provided with power. The drying module with the automatic thread scrap separating device 1 provided by the invention can directly discharge thread scraps out of the drying module, so that the phenomenon that the thread scraps in the drying module block the air flow in the drying module is avoided.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
