Wherein the outer cylinder 2 is fixedly arranged in the housing 1 and the inner cylinder 3 is rotatably arranged in the outer cylinder 2. Since the connection relationship among the box 1, the outer cylinder 2 and the inner cylinder 3 is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described herein too much.

Continuing to refer to fig. 1, the drum washing machine of the present invention further includes a power generation module 4 and a light emitting member 5 electrically connected to the power generation module 4. Wherein, the power generation module 4 and the luminous component 5 are both arranged on the circumferential wall of the inner cylinder 3, and the power generation module 4 can generate current to light the luminous component 5 in the process of rotating the inner cylinder 3, so that the luminous component 5 lights the inner cylinder 3, and a user can conveniently observe the condition in the inner cylinder 3. Further, the person skilled in the art may also dispose the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 at an end portion in the axial direction of the inner tube 3, for example, a left end of the inner tube 3 shown in fig. 1, as needed.

Preferably, the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 are electrically connected together in a physical contact manner. Specifically, the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 may be directly connected together by any feasible means such as welding, abutment, crimping, or the like, or may be indirectly connected together by a member capable of conducting electricity (e.g., an electric wire, conductive ceramics, conductive rubber, or the like). Further, the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 may be electrically connected to each other in a wireless manner as needed by those skilled in the art. Specifically, there is no physical contact between the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5, and the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 are provided with induction coils, respectively. The induction coil on the power generation module 4 can generate a transformed magnetic field, and the induction coil on the light emitting member 5 can be acted on by the transformed magnetic field to generate current to light the light emitting member 5.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the number of the power generation modules 4 and the light emitting members 5 provided on the inner tube 3 may be any number, for example, 8 power generation modules 4 and 16 light emitting members 5, 10 power generation modules 4 and 20

light emitting members

5, 7 power generation modules 4 and 14 light emitting members 5, etc. are provided.

In the first embodiment of the present invention:

as shown in fig. 2, the power generation module 4 includes a guide sleeve 41, a magnet 42, and an electric wire 43. The guide sleeve 41 is fixedly connected to the inner cylinder 3, and the fixed connection may be any feasible connection form, such as bolting, welding, riveting, and the like. The magnet 42 is slidably (as indicated by the arrow in fig. 2) disposed inside the guide sleeve 41, the electric wire 43 is wound around the outside of the guide sleeve 41, and the electric wire 43 is also connected in series with the two light emitting members 5. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the number of the light emitting members 5 electrically connected to the wires 43 may be any number, such as 1, 3, 4, 5, etc.

The magnet 42 may be any feasible magnet such as a samarium-cobalt magnet, a neodymium-iron-boron magnet (powerful magnet), a ferrite magnet, an alnico magnet, an iron-chromium-cobalt magnet, or the like.

Although not explicitly shown in the drawings, the guide sleeve 41 and the inner cylinder 3 are connected in such a manner that the magnet 42 can slide in the circumferential direction of the inner cylinder 3. Specifically, the longitudinal direction of the guide bush 41 (the left-right direction of the guide bush 41 in fig. 2) is perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner cylinder 3. So that the magnet 42 is lifted and dropped in the guide sleeve 41 along with the rotation of the inner cylinder 3, thereby realizing the sliding of the magnet 42 in the guide sleeve 41, further causing the magnetic induction wire of the magnet 42 to cut the electric wire 43, causing the electric wire 43 to generate current, and lighting the light-emitting component 5.

In addition, the length direction of the guiding sleeve 41 can be at any feasible angle with the axial direction of the inner cylinder 3 by those skilled in the art, for example, an angle of 30 °, an angle of 45 °, an angle of 60 °, and the like.

Although not shown, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the guiding sleeve 41 is preferably a closed structure, and a cavity (not shown) is formed in the closed structure for accommodating the magnet 42, so as to prevent the magnet 42 from contacting with the external environment of the guiding sleeve 41, thereby preventing the washing water from entering into the guiding sleeve 41 and preventing the magnet 42 from sliding. Further, in order to reduce frictional resistance between the magnet 42 and the guide sleeve 41, the inside of the guide sleeve 41 may be further coated with a lubricating oil.

Preferably, the wire 43 includes a conductive metal wire and an insulating layer coated on the outer side of the metal wire, and the insulating layer is used for preventing the metal wire from contacting with the washing water and generating a leakage current. Furthermore, the connection part of the wire 43 and the light-emitting component 5 is also coated with an insulating material, so that the wire 43 and the light-emitting component 5 are prevented from electric leakage and electric energy consumption.

Preferably, the light emitting member 5 also has an insulating layer to prevent the light emitting member 5 from a leakage phenomenon. Further, the light emitting member 5 is an ultraviolet lamp so that light emitted from the ultraviolet lamp can sterilize and disinfect the inner tub 3 and the laundry in the inner tub 3. Alternatively, the light emitting member 5 may be provided as any other feasible electricity using member, such as an ultrasonic generator, an anion generator, an ultraviolet lamp, etc., as required by those skilled in the art.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, when the inner tube 3 of the present invention rotates, the magnet 42 will continuously rise and fall, and slide back and forth in the guide sleeve 41, so that the magnetic induction wire 43 of the magnet 42 cuts the electric wire to generate current, and then the light emitting member 5 is lit to illuminate the inside of the inner tube 3.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that when the inner barrel 3 vibrates, the magnet 42 will also slide in the guide sleeve 41 under the influence of the vibration, so that the magnetically inductive wire 43 of the magnet 42 will generate a current, thereby illuminating the light emitting member 5 and illuminating the interior of the inner barrel 3.

Although not shown in the drawings, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the power generation module 4 further includes two springs (not shown in the drawings). The two springs are respectively located on both sides of the magnet 42 in the direction of the arrow in fig. 2, and specifically, one end of each spring abuts against one end of the guide sleeve 41, and the other end of each spring abuts against one end of the magnet 42. The two springs can slow down the sliding speed of the magnet 42, so that the current generated by the wire 43 is more uniform, and the condition that the light-emitting component 5 is overlooked can be avoided to a certain extent. Further, a person skilled in the art may also provide only one spring between the guide sleeve 41 and the magnet 42, as required.

In a second embodiment of the present invention:

as shown in fig. 3, the power generation module 4 further includes a circuit board 44, unlike the first embodiment described above. The circuit board 44 is electrically connected with the electric wire 43 and the light emitting member 5, respectively, and the circuit board 44 also has a waterproof insulating layer. Preferably, the circuit board 44 is a voltage stabilizing and/or current stabilizing circuit board for receiving the current generated by the wire 43 and delivering the current to the light emitting member 5 after voltage stabilizing and/or current stabilizing processing, so that the light emitting member 5 generates stable light. Further, the circuit board 44 may also have a step-up or step-down function to convert the voltage generated by the electric wire 43 into a voltage required for the light emitting member 5. Likewise, the circuit board 44 may also have a function of adjusting the magnitude of the current so as to convert the current generated by the electric wire 43 into the current required for the light emitting member 5.

Although not explicitly shown in the drawings, the circuit board 44 is fixedly connected to the inner cylinder 3.

In a third embodiment of the present invention:

as shown in fig. 4, the power generation module 4 further includes a circuit board 44 and a storage battery 45, unlike the first embodiment described above. The electric wire 43, the storage battery 45, the circuit board 44 and the light emitting member 5 are sequentially connected together, the storage battery 45 is used for storing electric energy generated by the electric wire 43, and the circuit board 44 is used for converting current and/or voltage output by the storage battery 45 into current/voltage required by the light emitting member 5. Wherein the circuit board 44 and the storage battery 45 both have waterproof insulating layers, and the storage battery 45 may be any feasible battery, such as a lithium battery, an energy storage capacitor battery, and the like.

Alternatively, the circuit board 44 may be directly connected to the wires 43 by a technique in the art, so that the circuit board 44 directly receives the electric power from the wires 43. When the electric power generated by the electric wire 43 is large, the large electric power is stored in the battery 45. The storage battery 45 can supply electric power to the circuit board 44 when the electric power generated by the electric wire 43 is small.

Although not explicitly shown in the drawings, the circuit board 44 and the storage battery 45 are fixedly connected to the inner tube 3, respectively.

Based on the above description, those skilled in the art can understand that, in the first embodiment, the second embodiment, or the third embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting module 4 can generate electric energy in the process of rotating the inner tube 3, illuminate the light emitting component 5, and further illuminate the inner space of the inner tube 3, so that the user can clearly observe the condition of the clothes in the inner tube 3, and the user experience is optimized. And because the light-emitting component 5 can rotate along with the inner cylinder 3, the light rays in the inner cylinder 3 can also rotate together, and the gorgeous lighting effect can be generated. And simultaneously, the utility model discloses a drum type washing machine has still avoided setting up the problem of electric wire between inner tube 3 and urceolus 2 or box 1.

Further, it is also possible for those skilled in the art to omit the guide sleeve 41 of the first, second and third embodiments, as necessary, to slidably dispose the magnet 42 directly on the inner cylinder 3, and to dispose the electric wire 43 adjacent to the magnet 42. Specifically, a slide groove that matches the magnet 42 is provided on the inner tube 3, and the magnet 42 is inserted into the slide groove. The magnet 42 can slide in the slot as the inner barrel 3 rotates.

As shown in fig. 5, the pulsator washing machine of the present invention mainly includes a casing 1, an outer tub 6 (corresponding to the outer tub 2 of the drum washing machine in fig. 1), and an inner tub 7 (corresponding to the inner tub 3 of the drum washing machine in fig. 1). Wherein, the outer tub 6 is fixedly provided in the cabinet 1, and the inner tub 7 is rotatably provided in the outer tub 6. Since the connection relationship among the casing 1, the outer tub 6 and the inner tub 7 is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described herein.

Continuing to refer to fig. 5, the pulsator washing machine of the present invention also includes a power generation module 4 and a light emitting member 5 electrically connected to the power generation module 4. Also, the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 are both disposed on the circumferential wall of the inner tub 8. Preferably, the power generation module 4 and the light emitting member 5 are disposed on the top of the inner tub 8.

Further, the power generation module 4 may be the power generation module described in any one of the first, second, and third embodiments described above.
