It will be appreciated that whether the user uses detergent or laundry beads, the present application is compatible with the automatic dispensing of detergent and laundry beads by controlling the inlet valve to supply water to the first and second chambers during the wash inlet phase so that the water flow can flush the first and second chambers simultaneously. In addition, considering that if the washing condensation beads are not fully dissolved, residues may exist, in the rinsing water inlet stage, the water inlet valve is controlled to supply water to the first cavity and the third cavity, so that water flow can wash the first cavity and the third cavity simultaneously, washing of the washing condensation beads remained in the first cavity can be completed while the softener is put in, and the problems of bacterial breeding and the like caused by the residual washing condensation beads in the first cavity are avoided.

The launch box according to the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail with reference to fig. 2 to 4.

As shown in fig. 2 to 4, the drop box 1 includes: the water inlet device comprises a first box body 11, a second box body 12 and a third box body 13, wherein a water inlet for water inlet is formed in the first box body 11; the second box body 12 is connected with the first box body 11, a first chamber 14, a second chamber 15 and a third chamber 16 are formed in the second box body 12 and are positioned on two sides of the first chamber 14, the second chamber 15 is used for putting detergent, and the third chamber 16 is used for putting softener; the third container 13 is connected to the second container 12, and an outlet 131 is formed in the third container 13. Since the dispensing box 1 has a first chamber 14 for dispensing washing beads, a second chamber 15 for dispensing detergent and a third chamber 16 for dispensing softener, the dispensing box 1 is compatible with a plurality of washing products.

Illustratively, the third casing 13 is provided with vertical ribs 17 for supporting washing beads at positions corresponding to the first chamber 14. This vertical muscle 17 both can support the laundry and congeal the pearl, avoids the laundry to congeal the pearl and blocks up the export 131 of putting in box 1, and the laundry congeals the pearl under the support of vertical muscle 17 when acting on with rivers, and the tip of vertical muscle 17 can accelerate the dissolution rate of the adventitia of the laundry and congeal the pearl to make the laundry congeal the pearl and can in time be dissolved and put in.

It can be understood that the adventitia of washing congeals the pearl can dissolve meeting water, adopts the putting in box 1 of this application embodiment to put in washing congeals the pearl, can be so that water gets into first cavity 14 after, dissolves the adventitia of washing congeals the pearl and mixes the back with the detergent in the adventitia, puts in the detergent of dilution to the clothing that waits to wash through the export 131 of putting in box 1 on to can avoid washing congeals the pearl and directly puts in the problem of the clothing local corrosion that leads to on waiting to wash the clothing. Here, because the tip of vertical muscle 17 is more sharp-pointed, can exert certain pressure to the adventitia to can accelerate the adventitia and meet the water dissolved speed, do benefit to laundry gel pearl quilt and dissolve in time and put in.

Illustratively, the outlet 131 of the drop box 1 is located on at least one side or periphery of the vertical rib 17, and the top end of the vertical rib 17 is higher than the outlet 131. Exemplarily, put in export 131 of box 1 and be located the periphery of vertical muscle 17, for example, set up a plurality of apopores in the periphery of vertical muscle 17, because the top of vertical muscle 17 is higher than export 131 to effectively avoided the laundry to congeal the pearl and blockked up export 131, and because export 131 is located the periphery of vertical muscle 17, can make the rivers that export 131 department formed can assemble to the center, effectively avoid the splash in disorder everywhere.

Exemplarily, the first chamber 14 is in a funnel shape with a large top and a small bottom, and a side wall surface of the first chamber 14 and the horizontal direction form an included angle α, and the value range of the included angle α is 10-60 °. Here, since the first chamber 14 is funnel-shaped, the washing beads in the first chamber 14 can be positioned by the side wall of the first chamber 14, which can effectively prevent the washing beads in the first chamber 14 from rolling or being displaced by the water flow.

For example, the first box 11 and the second box 12 may be connected by friction welding or hot plate welding, the second box 12 and the third box 13 may be connected by snap fit, and the connection manner among the first box 11, the second box 12 and the third box 13 is not particularly limited in this application.

In some embodiments, the first box 11 is formed with a first water inlet 111 and a second water inlet 112, and the water entering from the first water inlet 111 flows through the first chamber 14 and the second chamber 15 and flows out through the outlet 131; the water entering the second water inlet 112 flows through the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16 and exits through the outlet 131. Specifically, the second container 12 may be provided with a water flow path for guiding the water introduced from the first water inlet 111 to the first and

second chambers

14 and 15. The second box 12 may further have a water flow path for guiding water introduced from the second water inlet 112 to the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, separate water inlets may be provided corresponding to the first, second and

third chambers

14, 15, 16, respectively, i.e. the water inlets are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with each chamber.

In some embodiments, the second cartridge 12 is provided at the second chamber 15 with a first siphon column 18 for communicating with the third cartridge 13; and/or, the second cartridge 12 is provided at the third chamber 16 with a second siphon column 19 for communicating with the third cartridge 13.

Illustratively, a first siphon column 18 is disposed at the second chamber 15, and a second siphon column 19 is disposed at the third chamber 16. After the water introduced from the first water inlet 111 enters the second chamber 15, the water is mixed with the detergent in the second chamber 15, and the water inflow exceeds the top end of the first siphon column 18, the first siphon column 18 triggers the siphon effect, so that the diluted detergent in the second chamber 15 is thrown through the outlet 131 under the action of the pressure difference. Similarly, after the water introduced from the second water inlet 112 enters the third chamber 16, the water is mixed with the softener in the third chamber 16, and the water inflow exceeds the top end of the second siphon column 19, the second siphon column 19 triggers the siphon effect, so that the diluted softener in the third chamber 16 is put through the outlet 131 under the action of the pressure difference.

For example, in the wash water inlet stage, the controller of the laundry treatment apparatus may control the water inlet valve to be communicated to the first water inlet 111 to simultaneously introduce the water flow into the first chamber 14 and the second chamber 15, and if there is a washing bead in the first chamber 14, the washing bead may be dissolved by the water and be thrown into the washing tub through the outlet 131. If there is detergent in the second chamber 15, the detergent diluted by water in the second chamber 15 can be guided out to the outlet 131 through the siphon effect of the first siphon column 18, and then is thrown into the washing tub, so that the washing beads and/or the detergent can be thrown automatically in the washing water inlet process.

For example, during the rinse water inlet phase, the controller of the laundry treatment apparatus may control the water inlet valve to be communicated to the second water inlet 112 to simultaneously introduce the water flow into the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16, and if there are residual laundry beads in the first chamber 14, the laundry beads are washed by the water flow and are discharged into the washing tub through the outlet 131. Meanwhile, the softener in the third chamber 16 is diluted by water, is guided out to the outlet 131 under the siphon effect of the second siphon column 19, and is then thrown into the washing barrel, so that the softener is automatically thrown in the rinsing water inlet process, and residual washing condensation beads are cleaned at the same time.

In some embodiments, the laundry treating apparatus further comprises: and the micro-bubble generating device is used for outputting micro-bubble water to the feeding box 1. Micro bubble water is supplied to the input box 1 by the micro bubble generating device, and the micro bubble water can be used for accelerating the dissolution of various washing components. Herein, the micro bubble water is water with micro bubbles of micron order or more, which can accelerate the dissolution of washing components, and meanwhile, the impact force generated by the explosion of the micro bubbles can accelerate the dissolution of dirt among clothes fibers, thereby improving the washing efficiency.

In some embodiments, controlling the fill valve to supply water to the first chamber and the second chamber during the wash fill phase comprises:

the microbubble generating device is controlled to supply microbubble water to the first chamber and the second chamber or the outlet of the microbubble generating device to supply microbubble water to the throwing box.

Illustratively, controlling the fill valve to supply water to the first chamber and the second chamber during a wash fill phase comprises:

determining a first water inflow amount for normal water and a second water inflow amount for micro bubble water based on the target amount of washing water;

controlling a water inlet valve to supply common water with first water inflow to a first cavity and a second cavity;

and controlling the water inlet valve to be switched to supply common water to the micro-bubble generating device, and controlling the micro-bubble generating device to supply micro-bubble water to the first cavity and the second cavity or controlling the micro-bubble water generating device to supply the micro-bubble water to the outlet of the throwing box until the water inflow of the clothes treatment equipment reaches the target washing water amount.

Here, the normal water refers to water that does not flow through the microbubble generation device.

Here, the target amount of washing water may be a value set by a user as needed or a value determined according to a washing pattern or a value determined by the laundry treating apparatus based on a fuzzy weight. The controller of the laundry processing apparatus may determine a first water inflow amount of normal water and a second water inflow amount of micro-bubble water based on a preset rule after determining a target amount of washing water, wherein the micro-bubble water is capable of accelerating dissolution of washing components and stains between fibers of laundry, but a generation process of the micro-bubble water is limited by a water pressure condition and may also affect a water intake efficiency, and a person skilled in the art may reasonably determine a proportional relationship between the first water inflow amount and the second water inflow amount as needed, which is not specifically limited in the present application.

Here, the micro bubble water may flow through the first chamber 14 and the second chamber 15 and then flow out to the washing tub through the outlet 113 of the dispensing box 1, and the micro bubble water may be used to wash and dissolve the laundry beads in the first chamber 14 and/or the detergent in the second chamber 15. In other embodiments, the micro-bubble water may also directly flow to the washing tub through the outlet 113 of the putting box 1, so as not to flow through the first chamber 14 and the second chamber 15 in the inner cavity of the putting box 1, which is convenient for the micro-bubble water to directly act on the clothes in the working cavity, thereby accelerating the dissolution of the stains among the fibers of the clothes and improving the washing efficiency.

In practical application, if the water pressure is unstable, for example, the water pressure is lower than 0.03Mpa, the water flow is small, the total water inlet time is abnormally large, meanwhile, the low-pressure water flow passes through the micro-bubble generating device and cannot generate dense micro-bubbles, and if the controller determines that the water supply time of the micro-bubble water reaches or exceeds the first set time and the water inlet amount of the clothes treatment equipment does not reach the target washing water amount, the water inlet valve is controlled to be switched to supply common water to the first chamber and the second chamber until the water inlet amount of the clothes treatment equipment reaches the target washing water amount. So, can avoid water pressure to adopt little bubble generating device to supply the quality of little bubble water that little bubble water leads to when low poor and long overlength during water supply, can intelligent water supply quality and the water supply efficiency who improves the washing stage.

In some embodiments, controlling the inlet valve to supply water to the first chamber and the third chamber during the rinse inlet phase comprises:

the microbubble generating device is controlled to supply the microbubble water to the first chamber and the third chamber or the microbubble generating device is controlled to supply the microbubble water to the outlet of the throwing box.

Illustratively, controlling the inlet valve to supply water to the first chamber and the third chamber during the rinse inlet phase includes:

determining that the clothes treatment equipment is in a water inlet stage of the last rinsing, and determining a third water inlet amount for supplying common water and a fourth water inlet amount for supplying micro-bubble water based on the target rinsing water amount;

controlling a water inlet valve to supply common water with a third water inlet amount to the first chamber and the third chamber;

and controlling the water inlet valve to be switched to supply common water to the micro-bubble generating device, and controlling the micro-bubble generating device to supply micro-bubble water to the first chamber and the third chamber or controlling the micro-bubble water generating device to supply micro-bubble water to the outlet of the throwing box until the water inflow of the clothes treatment equipment reaches the target rinsing water amount.

Here, the target rinse water amount may be a value set by a user as needed or a value determined according to a washing pattern or a value determined by the laundry treating apparatus based on a fuzzy weighing. The controller of the laundry processing apparatus may determine the third water inflow amount of the ordinary water and the fourth water inflow amount of the micro bubble water based on a preset rule after determining the target rinsing water amount, and a person skilled in the art may reasonably determine a proportional relationship between the third water inflow amount and the fourth water inflow amount as required, which is not specifically limited in this application.

It is understood that the micro-bubble water may flow through the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16, and then flow out to the washing tub through the outlet 113 of the dispensing box 1, so that the micro-bubble water may be used to clean and dissolve the residual laundry beads in the first chamber 14 and the softener in the third chamber 16. In other embodiments, the micro-bubble water may also directly flow to the washing tub through the outlet 113 of the dispensing box 1, so as not to flow through the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16 in the inner cavity of the dispensing box 1, thereby facilitating the micro-bubble water to directly react with the clothes in the working cavity.

In practical application, if the water pressure is unstable, for example, the water pressure is lower than 0.03Mpa, the water flow is small, the total water inlet time is abnormally large, meanwhile, the low-pressure water flow passes through the micro-bubble generating device and cannot generate dense micro-bubbles, and if the controller determines that the water supply time of the micro-bubble water reaches or exceeds the second set time and the water inlet amount of the clothes treatment equipment does not reach the target rinsing water amount, the water inlet valve is controlled to be switched to supply common water to the first chamber and the third chamber until the water inlet amount of the clothes treatment equipment reaches the target rinsing water amount. So, can avoid water pressure to adopt little bubble generating device to supply the quality of little bubble water that little bubble water leads to when low poor and long overlength during water supply, can intelligent water supply quality and the water supply efficiency who improves the rinsing stage.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, the micro-bubble generating device 2 includes a cavity 21 with two open ends, a first valve cover 22 is installed at a first end of the cavity 21, a water inlet 24 for water inlet and a micro-bubble water outlet 26 for micro-bubble water outlet are installed on the first valve cover 22, a second valve cover 23 is installed at a second end of the cavity 21, and an air inlet 25 for air inlet is installed on the second valve cover 23.

Illustratively, the cross-sectional dimension of the first end of the cavity 21 is larger than the cross-sectional dimension of the second end of the cavity 21 to increase the interior space near the microbubble water outlet 26, such that the amount of microbubble water contained within the cavity 21 is increased, thereby increasing the output amount of microbubble water.

For example, in order to ensure the tightness of the connection between the components of the microbubble generator 2, a first sealing ring 27 is disposed between the first end of the cavity 21 and the first valve cover 22. A second sealing ring 28 is arranged between the second end of the cavity 21 and the second valve cover 23. A third sealing ring 29 is arranged between the micro-bubble water outlet 26 (also called a spray nozzle) and the first valve cover 22. In order to ensure the connection between the first valve cover 22, the second valve cover 23 and the cavity 21, the first valve cover 22 and the second valve cover 23 may be fixed to the cavity 21 by screws 2A.

In one embodiment, the micro-bubble water outlet 26 may output micro-bubble water to the inner cavity of the dispensing box 1, for example, the micro-bubble water output from the micro-bubble water outlet 26 may flow through at least one of the first chamber 14, the second chamber 15 and the third chamber 16 and be dispensed through the outlet 131, so as to achieve the effect that the micro-bubble water carries away the laundry treatment agent in the corresponding chamber.

In another embodiment, the micro-bubble water outlet 26 may be directly communicated with the outlet 131 of the dispensing box 1, that is, the micro-bubble water outlet 26 may be communicated with the outlet 131 of the dispensing box 1 through a pipeline, and the first chamber 14, the second chamber 15, and the third chamber 16 in the inner cavity of the dispensing box 1 are skipped over, so that the micro-bubble water generated by the micro-bubble generating device 2 is directly dispensed into the working cavity of the washing apparatus through the outlet 131 of the dispensing box 1, thereby facilitating the action of the micro-bubble water with the clothes in the working cavity, accelerating the dissolution of the stains between the fibers of the clothes, and improving the washing efficiency.

Illustratively, the controller of the laundry treating apparatus controls the operation of the microbubble generation device 2 as follows:

the controller controls water to enter the cavity 21 from the water inlet 24 of the first valve cover 22, and discharges micro-bubble water from the micro-bubble water outlet 26 after being compressed in the cavity 21. Specifically, since the amount of water discharged from the micro bubble water outlet 26 is smaller than the amount of water introduced from the water inlet 24, high pressure is formed in the sealed chamber 21, and air is dissolved in the water under the pressure, the micro bubble water outlet 26 is a cavitation device manufactured by using the venturi effect, and when water containing a high concentration of air solute enters the micro bubble water outlet 26, micro bubble water with micro bubbles is manufactured by the cavitation effect of the micro bubble water outlet 26. After the continuous operation for a period of time, the cavity 21 has more water, occupies a larger space, and the air content in the cavity 21 is also reduced, so that the micro-bubble water is difficult to form through the micro-bubble water outlet 26. At this time, the controller controls the water inlet at the water inlet 24 to pause, controls the air pump 8 to blow air into the cavity 21 through the air inlet 25, discharges the residual water in the cavity 21 through the micro-bubble water outlet 26, controls the water inlet 24 to re-enter the cavity 21 to enter a new micro-bubble water making period, and circulates in this way, so that the output of the micro-bubble water can be realized.

The present application is described in further detail below with reference to application examples.

As shown in fig. 6, in the present application example, the laundry treating apparatus includes a table 9, the table 9 is provided with an opening 91 for the laundry to come in and go out, and the opening 91 faces the bung of the washing tub. The workbench 9 is also provided with a feeding box 1, a micro-bubble generating device 2, a water inlet valve 3, a reversing valve 4 and an air pump 8. The specific structures of the administering box 1 and the microbubble generator 2 can refer to the foregoing description, and are not described herein again. An inlet of the water inlet valve 3 is communicated with an external water source, a first water outlet of the water inlet valve 3 is communicated with an inlet of the reversing valve 4 through a first water supply pipeline 5, a second water outlet of the water inlet valve 3 is communicated with a water inlet 24 of the micro-bubble generating device 2 through a second water supply pipeline 6, and a micro-bubble water outlet 26 of the micro-bubble generating device 2 is communicated with an inlet of the reversing valve 4 through a third water supply pipeline 7. The reversing valve 4 comprises a third water outlet communicated with the first water inlet 111 and a fourth water outlet communicated with the second water inlet 112.

It is understood that the water inlet valve 3 has a first state in which water is supplied to the inlet of the direction valve 4 and a second state in which water is supplied to the microbubble generation device 2. The reversing valve 4 has a third state in which water is supplied to the first water inlet 111 and a fourth state in which water is supplied to the second water inlet 112.

As shown in fig. 7, the control method of the laundry treating apparatus of the present application example includes:

step 701, controlling the water inlet valve to be in a first state so as to supply water to the reversing valve.

Here, an inlet of the feed valve 3 communicates with the first outlet to supply water to an inlet of the direction valve 4.

And step 702, controlling the reversing valve to be in a third state so as to supply water to the first water inlet of the throwing box.

Here, the inlet of the direction valve 4 communicates with the third water outlet, thereby supplying the general water to the first water inlet 111. The general water flows into the first and

second chambers

14 and 15 and flows into the washing tub through the outlet 113.

Step 703, determining that the inlet water reaches the first inlet amount, and controlling the inlet valve to switch to the second state to supply water to the microbubble generator.

Here, the controller may determine a first inflow amount (i.e., an inflow amount of normal water for the washing stage) and a second inflow amount (i.e., an inflow amount of micro-bubble water for the washing stage) corresponding to the inflow water for the washing stage based on a target amount of washing water required for the washing.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the target amount of washing water corresponds to a water level of n steps, the first water inflow amount is (n-d) steps, and the second water inflow amount is d steps. Wherein n and d are constants, n takes the value of 1-8, d takes the value of 0-7, and n > d.

The controller determines that the inflow amount of the normal water reaches the first inflow amount, and controls the water inlet valve 3 to switch to the second state, that is, the water inlet valve 3 supplies water to the micro-bubble generating device 2, so that the micro-bubble generating device 2 outputs micro-bubble water to the reversing valve 4.

Step 704, controlling the microbubble generator to supply microbubble water to the reversing valve.

The controller controls the microbubble generation device 2 to output microbubble water to the reversing valve 4, and the specific working process of the microbubble generation device 2 can refer to the foregoing description, which is not described herein again.

705, judging whether the micro-bubble water inlet time length reaches a first set time length and the water inlet quantity of the washing barrel does not reach the target washing water quantity, if so, executing 706; if not, returning to step 704, and executing step 707 when the water inflow of the washing tub reaches the target washing water amount;

here, the first set time period may be reasonably determined based on experiments to satisfy that the micro bubble water of the second water inflow may be output to the direction valve 4 by the micro bubble generating device 2 within the normal water pressure range.

Illustratively, the first set time period ranges from 60 seconds to 300 seconds.

Step 706, the water inlet valve is controlled to switch to the first state, so that the washing tub is filled with water to the target washing water amount.

Here, in the case that the water pressure is low, if the micro bubble water output from the micro bubble generating device 2 does not reach the second water inflow amount within the first set time period, the controller controls the water inlet valve 3 to directly supply water to the direction valve 4, thereby stopping the micro bubble water output from the micro bubble generating device 2, supplying normal water from the water inlet valve 3 until the tub is filled with water to the target washing water amount, and then executing step 707.

And step 707, finishing water inflow, and running a washing and rinsing control program.

The controller closes the water inlet valve and executes the washing and rinsing control program in sequence.

Step 708, determine to enter the water inlet stage of the last rinsing, control the diverter valve to be in the fourth state and control the water inlet valve to be in the first state.

And the controller determines to enter a water inlet stage of the last rinsing based on the operation program, and controls the reversing valve 4 to be in the fourth state and the water inlet valve 3 to be in the first state, namely, the water inlet valve 3 outputs common water to the inlet of the reversing valve 4, and the water is output to the second water inlet 112 of the throwing cavity 1 through the reversing valve 4, so that the first cavity 14 and the third cavity 16 are flushed simultaneously, and the softener is thrown and the residual washing condensation beads are cleaned simultaneously.

And 709, determining that the inlet water reaches a third inlet water amount, and controlling the inlet valve to be switched to a second state so as to supply water to the microbubble generator.

Here, the controller may determine a third inflow amount (i.e., an inflow amount of normal water for the rinsing stage) and a fourth inflow amount (i.e., an inflow amount of micro-bubble water for the rinsing stage) corresponding to the rinsing stage inflow water based on the target rinsing water amount required for rinsing.

The controller determines that the inflow amount of the normal water reaches a third inflow amount, controls the water inlet valve 3 to switch to a second state, that is, the water inlet valve 3 supplies water to the micro bubble generating device 2, so that the micro bubble generating device 2 outputs micro bubble water to the direction valve 4, and at this time, the direction valve 4 outputs the micro bubble water to the first chamber 14 and the third chamber 16.

And step 710, controlling the microbubble generation device to supply microbubble water to the reversing valve.

Step 711, judging whether the micro-bubble water inlet time length reaches a second set time length and the water inlet quantity of the washing barrel does not reach the target rinsing water quantity, if so, executing step 712; if not, the process returns to step 710, and step 713 is performed when the water inflow amount of the washing tub reaches the target washing water amount.

Here, the second set time period may be reasonably determined based on experiments to satisfy that the microbubble water of the fourth water inflow may be output by the microbubble generation device 2 to the selector valve 4 within the normal water pressure range.

In step 712, the water inlet valve is controlled to switch to the first state, so that the washing tub is filled with water to the target amount of washing water.

Here, in the case that the water pressure is low, if the micro bubble water output by the micro bubble generating device 2 does not reach the fourth water inflow amount within the second set time period, the controller controls the water inlet valve 3 to directly supply water to the reversing valve 4, thereby stopping the micro bubble water output by the micro bubble generating device 2, supplying the normal water through the water inlet valve 3 until the water enters the washing tub to the target rinsing water amount, and then executing step 713.

Step 713, ending water inflow and starting rinsing.

The controller closes the water inlet valve and executes the last rinsing.

And 714, finishing rinsing and starting dehydration.

The controller starts the dehydration control after determining that the rinsing is finished, and then ends the washing. In some embodiments, if the laundry treating apparatus has a drying function, the controller may further start drying after the dehydration is finished, and stop to finish washing after the drying is finished.
