In some embodiments of the present invention, there are two covers 4 spaced apart, and there is one-to-one correspondence between two covers 4 and two openings 12. For example, there are two covers 4, two openings 12, and two openings 12 and two covers 4 correspond one to one. Therefore, the corresponding opening 12 can be opened independently by the cover body 4, and the use experience is improved.

Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the cover 4 is one for simplifying the structure, and the cover 4 is used to open or close all the openings 12.

In some examples of the present invention, the laundry treating apparatus includes two laundry treating agent boxes 3, and the two openings 12 correspond one-to-one to the two laundry treating agent boxes 3. From this, through setting up a plurality of clothing processing agent boxes 3 to be convenient for hold more clothing processing agents, perhaps be convenient for hold different clothing processing agents, made things convenient for user's use, be favorable to improving user's use experience and the sense of trust to the brand.

For example, the opening 12 is two, the laundry treating agent box 3 is two, and the two laundry treating agent boxes 3 may be used to contain detergent and softener, respectively.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 4, a portion of the front surface of the front cover door 1 is recessed rearward to form a first recessed portion 15 and a second recessed portion 17 which are spaced apart, and the opening 12 is provided in the first recessed portion 15. From this, on the one hand through setting up first concave part 15, be favorable to improving the structural strength of preceding door 1, thereby improve the reliability that preceding door 1 used, the life of door 1 is sealed before the extension, on the other hand is through locating first concave part 15 with opening 12, when setting up foretell lid 4 and being used for closing opening 12, be favorable to guaranteeing that lid 4 does not stand out in the front surface of preceding door 1, perhaps when setting up clothing treatment agent box 3, be favorable to guaranteeing that the front end of clothing treatment agent box 3 does not stand out the front surface of preceding door 1, avoid the problem of scraping because of outstanding arouses, the volume reduces, and still be favorable to guaranteeing the aesthetic property of outward appearance.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the first laundry loading port 11 is located at the second recess 17, and the second recess 17 is located above the first recess 15. Thus, by providing the second concave portion 17, the installation of the door body for opening or closing the first laundry access opening 11 can be facilitated.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the two openings 12 are disposed spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the two openings 12 are disposed symmetrically with respect to a vertically extending symmetry line of the first concave portion 15. Therefore, the structural layout is more reasonable and more attractive.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the inner peripheral wall of the second concave portion 17 is formed in a large semicircular shape, the inner peripheral wall of the first concave portion 15 is formed in a small semicircular shape, and the arc-shaped profile of the inner peripheral wall of the second concave portion 17 and the arc-shaped profile of the inner peripheral wall of the first concave portion 15 are rounded. Thereby facilitating the size of the first recess 15 and, in turn, the opening 12 to be larger for the laundry treatment agent to be dispensed, preventing the laundry treatment agent from overflowing, and when the front door assembly 100 is further mounted with the laundry treatment agent cartridge 3, the larger size opening 12 may be penetrated by the larger size laundry treatment agent cartridge 3, thereby increasing the volume of the laundry treatment agent cartridge 3, increasing the storage amount of the laundry treatment agent, improving the convenience of use, improving the use experience of the user and the sense of trust in the brand.

In some embodiments of the utility model, the depth of the first recess 15 is less than the depth of the second recess 17. This facilitates the attachment of the door for opening and closing the first laundry inlet 11.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the front door 1 has a second laundry access opening 16, and the opening 12 is located between the first laundry access opening 11 and the second laundry access opening 16, for example, the first laundry access opening 11 is located above the opening 12, and the opening 12 is located above the second laundry access opening 16. Like this, the accommodating part 2 also can be located between the first clothing is got and is put the mouth 11 and the second clothing is got and put the mouth 16 to the clothing finishing agent that holds the intracavity can flow into under the action of gravity and get with the second clothing and put in the inner tube that the mouth 16 corresponds, has avoided putting in the setting of pump, is favorable to simplifying the structure, reduces manufacturing cost.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the center of the first laundry access opening 11 is horizontally spaced from the left end of the front sealing plate 1 by the same distance as the center of the first laundry access opening 11 is horizontally spaced from the right end of the front sealing plate 1. Therefore, the structural layout is more reasonable.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the center of the second laundry access opening 16 is horizontally spaced from the left end of the front sealing plate 1 by the same distance as the center of the second laundry access opening 16 is horizontally spaced from the right end of the front sealing plate 1. Therefore, the structural layout is more reasonable.
