Meanwhile, the long latch tongue 51 is hung in the PTC lock body 21 and slides towards the door opening direction relative to the front sealing door 20, so that not only can the door 10 be supported and guided, but also the phenomenon that clothes fall off after the door 10 is completely opened can be reduced, that is, the door 10 is wholly translated under the thrust of the linear driving device 40, only a circle of air holes are formed at the periphery of the door, the purpose of completely opening the door 10 is not achieved, and when the clothes are taken, the door 10 also needs to be manually opened.
Further, as shown in fig. 6, the linear driving device 40 further includes a motor housing 42, a control unit, an angle detection unit and a power supply are disposed in the motor housing 42, the control unit is configured to receive information about a working state sent by a controller of the laundry treatment apparatus, the angle detection unit is configured to detect opening and closing information and opening and closing angle information of the door 10, and the linear driving device 40 drives the door 10 to make a linear reciprocating motion along a door opening and closing direction under the control of the controller of the laundry treatment apparatus and the control unit. Specifically, after the clothes processing device finishes working, taking the clothes processing device as a dryer as an example, after the dryer executes a drying program, a controller of the dryer records the finishing time of the drying program and obtains the opening and closing information of the door 10 detected by the angle detection unit, when the dryer executes the drying program within a preset time (such as 1min), the door 10 is still not opened, at this time, the controller sends an instruction of automatically opening the door to the control unit of the linear driving device 40, the control unit controls the motor of the linear driving device 40 to be communicated with the power supply, the linear driving device 40 drives the door 10 to translate along the door opening direction, the door 10 drives the second hinge 32 to translate along the door opening direction during the translation along the door opening direction, the door 10 drives the short bolt on the door 10 to separate from the automatic ejection lock body 22 on the front sealing door 20 during the translation along the door opening direction, the long bolt 51 is hung in the PTC lock 21 and slides towards the opening direction relative to the front sealing door 20, so that a circle of ventilation gap is formed between the door body 10 and the front sealing door 20, and the dryer performs ventilation and heat dissipation through the circle of ventilation gap between the door body 10 and the front sealing door 20.
A second aspect of the present invention provides a laundry treating apparatus including the door assembly 100 of the laundry treating apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention.
In this embodiment, the laundry processing apparatus may be a washing machine, a dryer, or a dry-cleaning all-in-one machine, taking the laundry processing apparatus as a washing machine as an example, after the washing machine finishes washing and spin-drying the laundry, if the user does not take the laundry out of the washing machine within a preset time, the controller of the washing machine controls the linear driving device 40 to be powered on, the linear driving device 40 drives the door 10 to integrally translate along the door opening direction, a circle of ventilation gap is formed between the door 10 and the front sealing door 20 of the washing machine, and the washing machine performs heat dissipation and ventilation through the circle of ventilation gap around the door 10, so as to reduce the odor generated in the washing machine.
It should be noted that the clothes treating apparatus may be one of a washing machine, a clothes dryer or a dry cleaning all-in-one machine, and the clothes treating apparatus has all the technical effects of the door assembly 100 of the clothes treating apparatus of the first aspect of the present invention, and will not be described herein again.
In addition, the above-described embodiments have been described in detail only with respect to the structure of the laundry treating apparatus related to the innovative points of the present invention, and the structure of the laundry treating apparatus not related to the innovative points of the present invention will not be described in detail herein.
The above description is only for the preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
