In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1 to 6, the scale inhibiting device 2 includes a flow passage housing 21 and a scale inhibiting member 22, the flow passage housing 21 is formed with a water inlet 21a, a flow passage chamber 21b and a water outlet 21c, the scale inhibiting member 22 is disposed in the flow passage chamber 21b, the flow passage housing 21 is disposed in the accommodating cavity 1b and located below the water injection flow passage 1a, the water inlet 21a is communicated with the water injection flow passage 1a and the flow passage chamber 21b, and the water outlet 21c is connected to the flow chamber 21b and the accommodating cavity 1 b. Specifically, the water injection flow passage 1a injects water into the flow passing chamber 21b through the water inlet 21 a. The scale inhibitor 22 is used for reacting with the water in the overflow chamber 21b to reduce the hardness of the water. The water liquid in the overflow chamber 21b enters the containing cavity 1b through the water outlet 21 c. Like this, dispersed form rivers can pass through water inlet 21c and get into in the flow chamber 21 fast, and flow chamber 21b provides certain buffer memory space for water liquid, and water flow can keep relatively faster velocity of flow, and it is long when increasing water liquid and the contact of hindering the dirt piece 22, water liquid and hindering the dirt piece 22 can fully react.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 6, the water inlet 21a is formed on the upper side of the flow-passing casing 21, and the water outlet 21c is formed on the lower side of the flow-passing casing 21. Therefore, on one hand, the water flows in and out from the top and the bottom, and the resistance is small; on the other hand, the water in the flow chamber 21b can be sufficiently drained.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and 5, the detergent box 1 includes a box body 11 and a liquid dividing member 12, the water injection flow passage 1a and the liquid dividing flow passage 1c are both formed in the box body 11, the accommodating cavity 1b is formed in the liquid dividing member 12, the box body 11 is formed with a taking and placing opening 11a, and the liquid dividing member 12 can be inserted into or pulled out of the box body 11 through the taking and placing opening 11 a. Thus, it is convenient for a user to replace or maintain the scale inhibition device 2. For example, when the scale inhibition device 2 needs to be replaced or maintained, the user can take the scale inhibition device 2 by pulling the liquid separation member 12 out of the box body 11 through the taking and placing opening 11 a. After the replacement or maintenance is completed, the dispensing member 12 is inserted into the case 11.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the access opening 11a may be formed on the front side of the box body 11. In this way, the user can pull the dispensing member 12 from the front side for ease of operation.

The front means a direction toward the user, and the rear means a direction opposite to the front.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the top side of the accommodating cavity 1b is open, and the scale inhibition device 2 can be taken out or put into the accommodating cavity 1b through the top side opening of the accommodating cavity 1 b. For example, the overflowing case 21 can be taken out of or put into the accommodating chamber 1b through the top side opening of the accommodating chamber 1 b. Design like this, not only be convenient for the user to lift the hand and take or place and hinder dirty device 2, can also avoid to a certain extent to hinder dirty device 2 and fall out and hold chamber 1 b.

It should be noted that the top is aligned with the upper direction, and the bottom is aligned with the lower direction.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the scale inhibiting device 2 is detachably connected to the detergent box 1. So, avoid hindering dirty device 2 and in holding chamber 1b activity wantonly under the water impact, can also avoid hindering dirty device 2 and fall out and hold chamber 1b after touching by the mistake.

In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the flow-through shell 21 is detachably connected to the separating member 12. So, avoid hindering dirty device 2 and can strengthen overflowing the assembly intensity between shell 21 and the branch liquid piece 12 at the arbitrary activity in holding chamber 1b under the water impact, avoid hindering dirty device 2 to drop out after being touched by the mistake and hold chamber 1 b.

The detachable connection manner of the flow passing shell 21 and the liquid separating member 12 is not limited, in an embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and 5, the detergent box 1 includes an elastic member 13, at least one side surface of the accommodating cavity 1b is provided with the elastic member 13, and the elastic member 13 abuts against the scale inhibition device 2. For example, the elastic member 13 urges the flow-passing case 21 tightly in the accommodation chamber 1 b. When the scale inhibition device 2 is assembled, the scale inhibition device 2 is pressed into the accommodating cavity 1b until the elastic piece 13 abuts against the flow shell 21, and then the installation can be completed. Thus, the elastic force of the elastic element 13 is utilized to tightly abut against the flow shell 21, so as to prevent the scale inhibition device 2 from falling out of the accommodating cavity 1b after being touched by mistake.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and fig. 5, two opposite side surfaces of the accommodating cavity 1b are provided with elastic members 13, and the two opposite elastic members 13 respectively abut against two opposite side surfaces of the flow housing 21. Thus, the scale inhibition device 2 can be stably assembled more reliably and effectively.

The specific shape of the elastic element 13 is not limited, and in an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and 5, the elastic element 13 is substantially in the shape of a thin plate, and the two elastic elements 13 are respectively located at two ends of the flow-passing housing 21 in the length direction. The length direction of the overflowing shell 21 is consistent with the horizontal direction, in the process of pressing the overflowing shell 21 downwards, the overflowing shell 21 presses the elastic piece 13 to enable the elastic piece 13 to generate elastic deformation, when the overflowing shell 21 moves downwards to a set position, the pressing force on the overflowing shell 21 is cancelled, and the elastic force of the elastic piece 13 abuts against the overflowing shell 21. Thus, the elastic members 13 have a simple structure and are convenient to manufacture, and the two elastic members 13 can effectively limit the length direction of the flow passage shell 21. When the scale inhibition device 2 is detached, a user can hold the two side surfaces in the width direction of the flow shell 21 or apply force to the scale inhibition device 2 to press any one elastic piece 13 so that the elastic piece 13 expands in the length direction, and simultaneously lift the scale inhibition device 2 upwards until the scale inhibition device 2 is separated from the accommodating cavity 1b from the top side opening, so that the user can operate the scale inhibition device conveniently.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and fig. 6, a communication port 12a is formed on a side of the liquid separating member 12 away from the pick-and-place port 11a, and the communication port 12a communicates the accommodating cavity 1b and the liquid outlet channel 1 c. For example, the communication port 12a is formed on the rear side surface of the liquid separating member 12. Thus, the liquid in the housing chamber 1b enters the liquid outlet flow path 1c through the communication port 12 a.

That is, the bottom surface of the housing chamber 1b is inclined downward from the direction away from the communication port 12a toward the communication port 12 a. By the design, the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 1b plays a role in guiding the liquid in the accommodating cavity 1b to the communicating port 12a, so that the liquid can be rapidly discharged to the liquid outlet flow channel 1 c.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 3 and 5, a flow opening 12b is formed on a side of the liquid separating member 12 away from the access opening 11a, and the flow opening 12b communicates with the lotion tank 1d and the liquid outlet channel 1 c. For example, the flow port 12b is formed on the rear side surface of the partition member 12. Thus, the washing agent enters the liquid outlet flow path 1c through the flow opening 12 b.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 3, 6 and 7, an overflow outlet 21d is formed at the rear side of the flow-through housing 21, and the overflow outlet 21d is communicated with the flow-through chamber 21 b. For example, in the case where the viscosity of the softened water is relatively large and/or the water pressure in the water injection flow path 1a is unstable, the inflow flow rate and the outflow flow rate are liable to have a problem of being mismatched in stages, and the water inlet 21a may overflow upward. Here, the water outlet area is increased by the overflow outlet 21d, and the water in the overflow chamber 21b flows out from the water outlet 21c and the overflow outlet 21d, so as to accelerate the water outlet flow rate. In addition, since the communication port 12a is formed at the rear side of the liquid separating member 12 and the overflow port 21d is formed at the rear side of the overflowing case 21, the liquid separating member 12 and the overflowing case 21 can be prevented from interfering with each other, so that the water can flow more smoothly.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 2 to 5, the box body 11 includes a box cover 111 and a box body 112, the water injection flow channel 1a is formed on the box cover 111, the box body 112 is formed with an open slot 112a with an open top, the liquid separation component 12 is located in the open slot 112a, and the box cover 111 covers the open top of the open slot 112a to form the liquid outlet flow channel 1 c. Thus, the box cover 111 and the box body 112 can be manufactured independently, so that the manufacturing difficulty is reduced. The open groove 112a is formed on the box body 112, and the water flow can be approximately in a downward flow trend to reduce the resistance of the water flow, so as to facilitate the rapid discharge of the liquid.

In some embodiments, the lid 111 and the body 112 may be non-removably attached, such as by ultrasonic welding or adhesive bonding. The box cover 111 and the box body 112 can also be detachably connected through clamping or screw connection and the like. The assembly gap between the box cover 111 and the box body 112 can be sealed through a sealant or a sealing ring and the like, so that the sealing performance is improved.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the box cover 111 includes an upper cover 1111 and a lower cover 1112, the upper cover 1111 is formed with an injection port 1111a, the lower cover 1112 is formed with a water injection groove 1112a having an open top and a spray hole 1112b communicating with the water injection groove 1112a, the upper cover 1111 covers the open top of the water injection groove 1112a, and the injection port 1111a, the water injection groove 1112a and the spray hole 1112b together form a water injection flow channel 1 a. That is, the water from the inlet 1111a is guided to the spraying holes 1112b through the water injection groove 1112a, and then sprayed into the inlet 21a through the spraying holes 1112 b.

In some embodiments, the injection port 1111a and a water inlet valve of the washing apparatus may be connected through an injection pipe, and the water inlet valve is connected to a tap water pipe. Thus, tap water can be introduced into the injection port 1111a through the injection pipe.

In some embodiments, the upper cover 1111 and the lower cover 1112 may be non-removably attached, such as by ultrasonic welding or adhesive. The upper cover 1111 and the lower cover 1112 may be detachably connected by, for example, a snap connection or a screw connection. The assembly gap between the upper cover 1111 and the lower cover 1112 can be sealed by a sealant, a sealing ring, or the like, thereby improving the sealing property.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1 and 3, the detergent box 1 is formed with a detergent tank 1d and a water inlet channel 1e, the water inlet channel 1e is separated from the water injection channel 1a, the detergent tank 1d is separated from the accommodating chamber 1b, and the liquid outlet channel 1c and the water inlet channel 1e are both communicated with the detergent tank 1 d. The lotion tank 1d is used for containing lotion. That is, the water cannot flow between the water inlet channel 1e and the water filling channel 1a, and the lotion in the lotion tank 1d and the water in the containing chamber 1b cannot flow each other. After the water liquid from the water flow passage 1e enters the lotion tank 1d, the lotion is flushed into the liquid outlet flow passage 1 c. The water from the water injection channel 1a enters the overflow chamber 21b for softening, and then enters the liquid outlet channel 1c through the accommodating cavity 1 b. The lotion and the softened water can be mixed in the outlet flow passage 1 c. Therefore, the water inlet quantity can be ensured to be larger, the hardness of water can be properly reduced, and the water inlet quantity and the water hardness are considered.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 3, lotion tank 1d has a top side opening through which a user can add lotion to lotion tank 1 d. The washing agent can enter the washing chamber through the outlet flow passage 1c to wash the laundry.

The water inlet of the water inlet flow channel 1e and the water injection flow channel 1a can be controlled respectively and independently to realize various liquid inlet modes and enrich the functions of the washing equipment. For example, in some embodiments, the water inlet channel 1e can be controlled to separately feed water, so that the washing agent can be separately fed into the washing chamber. In other embodiments, the water injection flow passage 1a may be controlled to separately supply water, so that softened water may be separately supplied into the washing chamber. In other embodiments, the water inlet flow passage 1a and the water inlet flow passage 1e can be controlled to feed water synchronously, so that the softened water and the lotion can be delivered into the washing chamber after being premixed in the liquid outlet flow passage 1 c.

In some embodiments, lotion tank 1d can also communicate with holding chamber 1 b. Thus, the supply water flow passage 1e is not provided, and the detergent can be flushed into the outlet liquid flow passage 1c by the softened water, thereby simplifying the structure.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the lotion tank 1d is formed on the liquid separating member 12, and the containing chamber 1b and the lotion tank 1d may be arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. Thus, the volumes of the containing chamber 1b and the lotion tank 1d can be made large without increasing the size of the liquid-separating member 12 in the up-down direction.

The vertical direction, the front-rear direction, and the left-right direction are perpendicular to each other, and together form a three-dimensional vertical coordinate system.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 5, a plurality of spraying holes 1112b are formed on a lower side surface of the water injection flow passage 1a, and the spraying holes 1112b are located above the water inlet 21 a. The spray holes 1112b penetrate the lower surface of the water injection flow path 1a, and the spray holes 1112b are used to spray the water from the water injection flow path 1a into the water inlet 21 a. The diameter of the spray holes 1112b may be smaller to disperse the water flow and increase the contact area between the water flow and the scale inhibitor.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6, a plane perpendicular to the up-down direction is taken as a projection plane, and the projection of the plurality of spraying holes 1112b is within the projection range of the water inlet 21 a. That is, the area of the water inlet 21a is larger than the sum of the areas of the plurality of shower holes 1112 b. Thus, the water inlet 21a has a larger size, so that the water inlet 21a receives water from the spraying holes 1112 b.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 7, the scale inhibitor 22 includes a filter shell 221 and a scale inhibitor, the filter shell 221 is formed with a plurality of filter holes (not shown), the scale inhibitor is accommodated in the filter shell 221, and the filter holes communicate the space in the filter shell 221 with the flow through chamber 21 b. The filter holes are used for realizing the water liquid circulation in the filter shell 221 and between the overflowing chamber 21 b. The water in the flowing chamber 21b enters the filter shell 221 through the filter holes to react with the anti-scaling agent to produce softened water, and the softened water flows out of the flowing chamber 21b through the filter holes to be discharged into the accommodating cavity 1b through the water outlet 21 c. The scale inhibitor is restricted by the filter housing 221 to avoid the scale inhibitor from clogging the water outlet 21 c.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 6 and 7, the length direction of the filter casing 221 is perpendicular to the up-down direction, a drainage opening 221a is formed on the end surface of the filter casing 221 facing the overflow opening 21d of the overflow casing 21, and the drainage opening 221a communicates the space in the filter casing 221 with the overflow opening 21 d. In this way, accumulation of softened water within the filter housing 221 is avoided.

The softened water is water obtained by reducing the hardness of the scale inhibitor.

The scale inhibitor is a substance capable of dispersing, interfering or preventing the formation of a sparingly soluble inorganic salt. The scale inhibitor can be a solid substance and is slowly dissolved and released when meeting water, for example, the scale inhibitor is in a granular shape. Thus, the scale inhibitor can be placed in the filter shell 221, and the volume of the scale inhibitor is larger than the size of the filter holes, so that the scale inhibitor can be prevented from falling out of the filter shell 221 through the filter holes.
