The drum 20 is installed in the cabinet 10, for example, the drum 20 can be suspended in the cabinet 10 by the damping assembly 30, so that the drum 20 can be installed, and the vibration of the drum 20 can be damped by the damping assembly 30, thereby reducing the influence of the vibration of the drum 20 on the clothes treatment apparatus 1.

However, the existing vibration assemblies are often not properly configured, resulting in inconvenient replacement of the vibration reduction assembly. Accordingly, the present embodiment provides a new vibration damping assembly 30 to solve the above-mentioned problems. The vibration damping module 30 will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

For example, referring to fig. 2 in conjunction with fig. 1, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a vibration damping assembly in the laundry treating apparatus shown in fig. 1. The embodiment of the application provides a vibration damping assembly 30, and the vibration damping assembly 30 is applied to the clothes treatment device 1. The damping assembly 30 may include a boom 31, suspension feet 32, a pallet 33, and a damping portion 34. The hanging foot 32 is detachably connected to one end of the hanging rod 31, and the hanging foot 32 can be attached to the cabinet 10 of the clothes treating apparatus 1. The pallet 33 is detachably connected to the other end of the boom 31. The vibration damping portion 34 is fitted over the boom 31 and provided between the suspension leg 32 and the saddle 33. The vibration damping portion 34 may be connected to the drum 20 of the laundry treatment apparatus 1 to damp vibration generated in the drum 20. In the damping subassembly 30 and the clothing processing apparatus 1 that this application embodiment provided, all set up to dismantling the structure of being connected with hanging foot 32 and jib 31 and saddle 33 and jib 31, can conveniently change jib 31, damping portion 34, hang any spare part in foot 32 and the saddle 33, compare in the damping subassembly structure of integral type, the damping subassembly 30 of this application embodiment can save the material, conveniently assemble, be convenient for change, the performance debugging cycle of clothing processing apparatus 1 has been shortened.

When the lengths of the vibration damping portion 34, the boom 31, and the form of the vibration damping unit 30 (closed type, open type, semi-closed type, etc.) need to be changed during the adjustment of the performance of the laundry treatment apparatus 1, if the conventional integrated vibration damping unit 30 is used, a completely new vibration damping unit 30 needs to be replaced every adjustment. The manufacturer of the vibration damping member 30 is easily affected by various factors (production cycle, delivery distance and time), resulting in a long performance adjustment cycle of the laundry treating apparatus 1, inconvenience in replacement, waste of materials, and the like. In the vibration damping module 30 of this application embodiment, set up jib 31 and hang foot 32 and set up to dismantling to be connected, set up jib 31 and saddle 33 to dismantling to be connected, can be in the performance debugging in-process, the convenient form of changing damping portion 34, jib 31 length, vibration damping module 30 need not all to change damping module 30's whole parts, shortened the performance debugging cycle of clothing processing apparatus 1, changed convenience, save material etc..

There are various ways in which the hanger bar 31 can be detachably connected to the hanging foot 32.

Exemplarily, please refer to fig. 3 and 4 in combination with fig. 1 and 2, in which fig. 3 is an exploded schematic view of the damping module shown in fig. 2, and fig. 4 is an enlarged schematic view of a portion a of the damping module shown in fig. 2. The boom 31 may include a stopper 312. The suspension foot 32 is provided with a mounting groove 322. The suspension rod 31 is partially inserted into the mounting groove 322, and the limiting portion 312 is engaged with the suspension foot 32 to limit the movement of the suspension foot 32 toward the other end away from the suspension rod 31. It should be noted that the whole of the suspension rod 31 may be a cylindrical long rod, one end of the suspension rod 31 may be provided with a limiting portion 312, the limiting portion 312 may extend from the end of the suspension rod 31, and the periphery of the limiting portion 312 protrudes out of the periphery of the suspension rod 31. The stopper portion 312 thus provided can restrict the movement of the suspension foot 32 toward the other end away from the suspension lever 31. The mounting groove 322 may be in the shape of an open groove, that is, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 322 may be disposed at the center of the suspension foot 32, and the mounting groove 322 may be square toward the diameter of any circumference of the suspension foot 32, thereby forming the mounting groove 322 having a bottom wall and opposite sidewalls. In assembling the hanger bar 31 with the hanging foot 32, the hanger bar 31 may be pushed into the mounting groove 322 in the opening direction of the mounting groove 322 until the hanger bar 31 comes into contact with the bottom wall of the mounting groove 322. The hanger bar 31 is then slid in a direction toward the pallet 33 to engage the stopper portion 312 with the hanging leg 32. In order to reduce the friction between the limiting portion 312 and the suspension leg 32, a flexible pad 37 may be disposed on the connection surface between the limiting portion 312 and the suspension leg 32, and the size of the flexible pad 37 may be similar to that of the suspension leg 32, which is not limited herein.

In the connection between the suspension leg 32 and the suspension rod 31, after one end of the suspension rod 31 is disposed in the mounting groove 322 of the suspension leg 32, the connection between the suspension leg 32 and the suspension rod 31 needs to be fastened in order to secure the connection between the suspension rod 31 and the suspension leg 32 and facilitate the connection between the suspension leg 32 and the box body 10. Illustratively, the hanging foot 32 is further provided with a first limiting hole 324, and the first limiting hole 324 is parallel to and spaced apart from the mounting groove 322. The damping assembly 30 may further include a first limiting member 35, and the first limiting member 35 is mounted in the first limiting hole 324 to limit the movement of the suspension foot 32 towards the other end of the suspension rod 31, that is, to realize the fastening connection between the suspension rod 31 and the suspension foot 32. The first position-limiting member 35 may be a screw, and the screw is inserted into the first position-limiting hole 324 to press the mounting groove 322, so as to fix the suspension leg 32 and the suspension rod 31. The number of the first limiting members 35 may be set according to the number of the first limiting holes 324. For example, two first limiting holes 324 are oppositely arranged on the suspension leg 32 around the center of the suspension leg 32, and two first limiting members 35 are respectively pressed from two sides of the suspension rod 31, so that the connection between the suspension rod 31 and the suspension leg 32 is firmer. Of course, the first limiting member 35 may have other structures, which are not illustrated here. When the suspension leg 32 and the suspension rod 31 need to be detached, the first stopper 35 is detached, and then the suspension rod 31 is removed from the mounting groove 322, so that the detachment of the suspension rod 31 and the suspension leg 32 can be completed.

The removable connection of the pallet 33 to the boom 31 can also be made in various ways. For example, the detachable connection of the pallet 33 and the boom 31 may refer to the detachable connection of the suspension foot 32 and the boom 31. For another example, the detachable connection of the boom 31 and the pallet 33 may be realized by a screw connection.

For example, referring to fig. 5 in conjunction with fig. 1 to 4, fig. 5 is an enlarged structural schematic view of a part B of the vibration damping module shown in fig. 2. The suspension rod 31 further includes a threaded post 314, and the threaded post 314 is disposed at two ends of the suspension rod 31 opposite to the limiting portion 312. The saddle 33 is provided with a mounting hole 332, and the threaded post 314 is detachably connected with the mounting hole 332. It is understood that the mounting holes 332 may be threaded holes, and the threaded posts 314 and the mounting holes 332 are threadedly coupled to removably couple the gantry 33 to the boom 31. Wherein, the mounting hole 332 may be disposed at a central position of the pallet 33, so that the mounting hole 332 is conveniently positioned when the pallet 33 is manufactured. The size of the mounting hole 332 is adapted to the size of the threaded post 314.

In order to prevent the unstable connection between the pallet 33 and the boom 31 due to the wear of the threaded connection, the pallet 33 and the boom 31 may be connected by a fastener. Illustratively, the supporting platform 33 is further provided with a second limiting hole 334, and the second limiting hole 334 is communicated with the mounting hole 332. The damping assembly 30 may further include a second limiting member 36, wherein the second limiting member 36 is mounted in the second limiting hole 334 and abuts against the threaded post 314 to limit the relative movement between the saddle 33 and the suspension rod 31. For example, the second position-limiting member 36 may also be a screw, and the screw is mounted in the second position-limiting hole 334 to make the connection between the saddle 33 and the suspension rod 31 more secure. The number of the second position-limiting members 36 is determined according to the number of the second position-limiting holes 334, for example, three second position-limiting holes 334 are disposed on the pallet 33, each second position-limiting hole 334 may be perpendicular to the mounting hole 332, and the three second position-limiting holes 334 may be arranged in a circumferential array on the outer sidewall of the periphery of the pallet 33.

Since the vibration damping part 34 is provided between the suspension leg 32 and the pallet 33 and is fitted over the boom 31, the structure of the pallet 33 can be designed to prevent the vibration damping part 34 from slipping off the boom 31 through the pallet 33. Illustratively, the pallet 33 may further include a body 336 and an extension portion 338 connected to each other, and the extension portion 338 extends from the body 336 toward a periphery of one end of the hanging leg 32 to form a tray-like shape, thereby limiting the sliding of the vibration reducing portion 34.

For example, the vibration damping portion 34 may include an elastic member 342 and a mounting seat 344. The mount 344 is connectable with the barrel 20. The elastic member 342 abuts the mounting seat 344 and the extension portion 338 at both ends thereof, respectively. The elastic member 342 may be a spring, for example, a compression spring. In the initial state, the elastic member 342 may be pressed by the pressure of the cylinder 20, that is, the elastic member 342 has a certain elastic force in the initial state, and when the cylinder 20 vibrates toward the vibration damping portion 34, the elastic member 342 is compressed by a larger pressure, so as to damp the vibration motion of the cylinder 20. When the cylinder 20 vibrates in a direction away from the vibration attenuating portion 34, the elastic member 342 is restored by its own elastic force. The reciprocating motion of the elastic member 342 can absorb the vibration of the drum 20, thereby making the operation of the laundry treating apparatus 1 more stable. The mounting seat 344 may abut against the cylinder 20, and when the cylinder 20 vibrates, the cylinder 20 abuts against the mounting seat 344 to drive the elastic member 342 to contract, thereby damping the vibration generated by the cylinder 20.

One end of the mounting seat 344 abuts against the cylinder 20, and the other end of the mounting seat 344 abuts against the elastic member 342. To accommodate movement of the two end members of the mount 344, the mount 344 may illustratively include a through-going portion 3441 and a flap portion 3442 that are interconnected. The penetrating portion 3441 can penetrate through the installation structure of the cylinder 20, and the blocking portion 3442 is used for limiting the elastic member 342. For example, the penetrating portion 3441 may be cylindrical, and the free end of the penetrating portion 3441 may gradually contract from the baffle portion 3442 to facilitate the relative movement of the cylinder 20 and the mounting seat 344. On the outer side wall of the barrel 20, and near the bottom position of the barrel 20, a through hole may be provided, the through hole portion 3441 is provided in the through hole, and the baffle portion 3442 abuts against the hole wall of the through hole. When the cylinder 20 is vibrated toward the mount 344, the cylinder 20 is brought into contact with the baffle portion 3442 through the hole wall of the through hole to press the elastic member 342. One end of the blocking portion 3442 may be used to abut against the cylinder 20, and the other end of the blocking portion 3442 may be used to cover the elastic member 342. Illustratively, one end of the barrier portion 3442 may have a spherical structure, and the other end of the barrier portion 3442 may have a cylindrical shape. During assembly, the elastic member 342 may be sleeved at the other end of the blocking portion 3442, and the elastic member 342 is limited by one end of the blocking portion 3442. It is understood that both ends of the elastic member 342 are limited by the extension portion 338 of the saddle 33 and the baffle portion 3442 of the mounting seat 344.

The vibration damping module 30 may be open, closed, or semi-closed. When the damper assembly 30 is open, the damper portion 34 is in an open state, that is, a state in which the elastic member 342 and the mount 344 are exposed. In the case of the enclosed type of the damping assembly 30, the damping portion 34 may further include a covering cylinder (not shown), which is sleeved on the suspension rod 31 and covers the elastic member 342 and the mounting seat 344. That is, the elastic member 342 and the mounting seat 344 are hidden in the covering cylinder. In the case where the vibration damping module 30 is semi-enclosed, a part of the structure of the elastic member 342 and the mounting seat 344 is hidden.

In the vibration damping module 30 and the laundry treating apparatus 1 according to the embodiment of the present application, the vibration damping module 30 may include a hanger 31, a hanging foot 32, a pallet 33, and a vibration damping part 34. The hanging foot 32 is detachably connected to one end of the hanger 31, and the hanging foot 32 can be attached to the cabinet 10 of the laundry treating apparatus 1. The pallet 33 is detachably connected to the other end of the boom 31. The vibration damping portion 34 is fitted over the boom 31 and provided between the suspension leg 32 and the saddle 33. The vibration damping portion 34 may be connected to the drum 20 of the laundry treatment apparatus 1 to damp vibration generated in the drum 20. In the damping subassembly 30 and the clothing processing apparatus 1 that this application embodiment provided, all set up to dismantling the structure of being connected with hanging foot 32 and jib 31 and saddle 33 and jib 31, can conveniently change jib 31, damping portion 34, hang any spare part in foot 32 and the saddle 33, compare in the damping subassembly structure of integral type, the damping subassembly 30 of this application embodiment can save the material, conveniently assemble, be convenient for change, the performance debugging cycle of clothing processing apparatus 1 has been shortened.
