Exemplary embodiments that embody features and advantages of the utility model are described in detail below in the specification. It is to be understood that the utility model is capable of other embodiments and that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the scope of the utility model and the description and drawings are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not as restrictive.
There are many products with steam function in the current market, but the cost is high, and if there is a breakthrough in technical cost, the product competitiveness can be improved; therefore, the utility model specially designs a low-cost, simple, reliable and explosion-proof steam generating device according to the pain point.
The washing and caring apparatus of the present invention is not limited to the washing machine and the dryer, but includes products having a steam function.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a specific structure of a washing and caring apparatus provided in this embodiment, which mainly includes a casing (not shown) with a hollow interior and a steam generating device accommodated in the casing. Wherein, the steam generating device comprises a water storage container 100, a first water inlet pipe 1 and an explosion-proof pipe 3.
The water storage container 100 is a substantially rectangular hollow box for collecting and storing tap water or distilled water. A heater 110 capable of heating water to form steam is disposed in the water storage container 100. The water storage container 100 is provided with a water inlet 101 and an air outlet 102 along the length direction thereof. Wherein the exhaust port 102 supplies water vapor to the outside. Taking a drum washing machine as an example, a horizontally-arranged washing tub is further arranged in the machine shell, one end of the washing tub is a clothes inlet, and the other end of the washing tub is provided with a plurality of through holes. After the washing is finished, the discharged water vapor can enter the washing barrel through the through holes, so that the washed clothes become unfolded and flat under the action of the steam.
The inlet of one end of the first water inlet pipe 1 is used for externally connecting a water source such as tap water, and the other end is branched to form a first outlet 11 and a second outlet 12, wherein the first outlet 11 is communicated with the water inlet 101 of the water storage container 100.
An inlet at one end of the explosion-proof pipe 3 is communicated with the second outlet 12, and an outlet at the other end is communicated with an exhaust port 102 of the water storage container 100; the opposite side walls 311 of the explosion proof pipe 3 can be elastically separated or closed, so that the water inlet passage can be selectively opened and closed.
The self-priming pump aims to replace a self-priming pump with higher cost by adopting the first water inlet pipe 1 which can be externally connected with a water source, so that the cost can be greatly reduced; however, this solution has a risk that once the water inlet 101 and the air outlet 102 of the water container 100 are blocked by the scale, the first water inlet pipe 1 will burst by the high pressure of the tap water, so that an explosion-proof design is required to solve this problem, and a low-cost, simple, reliable and explosion-proof steam generator is realized.
The working principle of the explosion-proof tube 3 is as follows: when the washing machine works, the heater 110 in the water storage container 100 is firstly turned on, after the washing machine is heated for a preset time, the processing unit of the washing equipment controls the water inlet valve 4 to be turned on and off according to a certain beat, tap water is injected into the container, the high-temperature heater 110 can heat the injected tap water into a steam state and the steam is discharged through the exhaust port 102, and steam generation is completed. If the water storage container 100 is used for a long time, the exhaust port 102 or the water inlet 101 is blocked by scale, the pressure is released through the elastic anti-explosion tube 3 arranged between the water inlet valve 4 and the exhaust pipe, the anti-explosion tube 3 is closed under normal pressure, when the pressure is increased, the tube walls 311 on two sides of the anti-explosion tube 3 are extruded outwards under the action of water pressure and are separated relatively, so that the pipeline is opened, tap water is communicated with the exhaust port 102, and the pipeline burst caused by high pressure of the water inlet pipe is avoided.
Specifically, the explosion-proof tube 3 is made of a rubber material and is rich in elasticity. Of course, in other embodiments, the explosion-proof tube 3 may also be made of other elastic plastic materials.
Referring to fig. 2, the explosion-proof pipe 3 includes two bent pipe sections 31 and a connecting pipe section 32 connecting the two bent pipes. The two bent pipe sections 31 are respectively connected with the second outlet 12 and the exhaust port 102. The connecting pipe section 32 is of a substantially straight pipe structure, and the length of the connecting pipe section 32 is greater than that of the bent pipe section 31. The two side walls 311 of the connecting pipe section 32 at the middle position can be elastically separated or closed.
Under the condition that the water pressure is normal, the two side pipe walls 311 of the explosion-proof pipe 3 are relatively sunken towards the direction in the pipe and are abutted together, and the closing of the pipeline is realized. The cross-sectional shape of the tube wall 311 on either side is arc-shaped, and the tube walls 311 on both sides are similar to an "x" shaped structure when abutted.
Referring to fig. 3, when the air outlet 102 or the water inlet 101 of the water container 100 is blocked by the scale, most of the water flowing from the first water inlet pipe 1 flows to the explosion-proof pipe 3, so that the water pressure in the explosion-proof pipe 3 increases, and the pipe walls 311 on two sides of the explosion-proof pipe 3 are pressed outwards by the water pressure to be separated relatively, thereby opening the pipe. At the moment, the first water inlet pipe 1, the explosion-proof pipe 3 and the first exhaust pipe 5 are communicated to form a new working pipeline, so that the pressure of the water inlet pipe is dredged, and the pipeline burst caused by high pressure of the water inlet pipe is avoided. Naturally, after the scale is cleaned, the water pressure of the explosion-proof pipe 3 drops, and the pipe walls 311 on both sides thereof are restored to the state of abutting and closing by the elastic action.
Further, the steam generating device also comprises a water inlet valve 4, a second water inlet pipe 2, a first exhaust pipe 5, a second exhaust pipe 6 and two three-way pipes 7.
The water inlet valve 4 is arranged on the first water inlet pipe 1, and the first water inlet pipe 1 is communicated and closed. The water inlet valve 4 is electrically connected with a processing unit of the washing and protecting equipment. When the washing and protecting device works, the processing unit of the washing and protecting device controls the water inlet valve 4 to be opened and closed according to a certain beat, so that tap water is continuously injected into the container.
One port of one three-way pipe 7 is communicated with one end of the first water inlet pipe 1 far away from the inlet of the first water inlet pipe, and the other two ports of the three-way pipe 7 are a first outlet 11 and a second outlet 12. Both ends of the second inlet pipe 2 are connected to the inlet 101 and the first outlet 11, respectively.
One port of the other three-way pipe 7 is connected with the exhaust port 102, and the other two ports of the three-way pipe 7 are respectively connected with the first exhaust pipe 5 and the outlet of the explosion-proof pipe 3; two ends of the second exhaust pipe 6 are respectively connected with the three-way pipe 7 and the exhaust port 102. The through port of the first exhaust duct 5 faces the direction of the washing tub to deliver water vapor to the washing tub.
In this embodiment, the steam generating device further includes a tap water pipe 8.
One end of the tap water pipe 8 extends out of the machine shell, namely is exposed. The exposed end can be directly connected with an external water pipe or a water tap, so that the operation of a user is facilitated. The other end of the tap water pipe 8 is communicated with the inlet of the first water inlet pipe 1 to provide water source.
In conclusion, the washing and protecting equipment provided by the utility model at least has the following advantages and positive effects:
firstly, the first water inlet pipe 1 that can external water source has replaced the higher self priming pump of cost, and the cost can reduce a lot, has improved the competitiveness of product.
Secondly, an explosion-proof function is realized. The explosion-proof pipe 3 is arranged to communicate the water inlet pipes on the two sides of the container with the exhaust pipe, the water inlet pipes and the exhaust pipe cannot be communicated through the explosion-proof pipe 3 during normal work, and pressure relief can be conducted only when high pressure exists in the pipeline. Specifically, under the condition that the water pressure is normal, the pipe walls 311 on the two sides of the connecting pipe are relatively sunken towards the direction in the pipe so as to be abutted together, and the closing of the pipeline is realized. When the air outlet 102 or the water inlet 101 of the water container 100 is blocked by the scale, most of the water flowing from the first water inlet pipe 1 flows to the explosion-proof pipe 3, so that the water pressure in the explosion-proof pipe 3 is increased, and the pipe walls 311 at two sides of the explosion-proof pipe 3 are relatively separated by being squeezed outwards under the action of the water pressure, thereby opening the pipe. At the moment, the water inlet pipe, the explosion-proof pipe 3 and the exhaust pipe are communicated to form a new working pipeline, so that the pressure of the water inlet pipe is dredged, and the pipeline burst caused by high pressure of the water inlet pipe is avoided. Naturally, after the scale is cleaned, the water pressure of the explosion-proof pipe 3 is lowered, and the pipe walls 311 on both sides thereof are restored to the state of abutting and closing by the elastic action, and thus the practicality is high.
