Detailed Description

Embodiments of the present utility model are described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are illustrative of the utility model but are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model.

The present embodiment provides a base 10.

Referring to fig. 2, the base 10 has an accommodating space 10a for accommodating the cleaning robot 300, and the accommodating space 10a is provided with an opening 10b for the cleaning robot to enter and exit. That is, the cleaning robot 300 enters and exits the accommodating space 10a from the opening 10b.

Referring to fig. 3, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a base assembly 100, which includes a base 30 and a base 10 according to any embodiment of the present utility model, wherein the base 30 is disposed in a receiving space 10a. The base 30 has a receiving chamber 30a for receiving the cleaning robot 300, that is, the receiving chamber 30a is located in the receiving space 10a, and the receiving space 10a provides an installation space for the base 30 and other components.

The cleaning robot 300 may be used to automatically clean dust, hair, etc. on the floor, and in the case where a mop is provided on the cleaning robot 300, the cleaning robot 300 may perform a mopping operation on the floor after cleaning the floor.

The functions of the base assembly 100 in the embodiment of the present utility model include at least one of charging, dust collecting, washing, drying, and sterilizing the cleaning robot 300.

An embodiment of the present utility model provides a laundry treating apparatus, referring to fig. 1 and 2, including a laundry treating machine 200 and a pedestal assembly 100 according to any embodiment of the present utility model, the pedestal assembly 100 is positioned below the laundry treating machine 200, and the laundry treating machine 200 is supported on the pedestal assembly 100. The base 10 provides structural support for the laundry machine 200, and the base 10 is a force-receiving member capable of carrying the weight of the laundry machine 200 and its load.

For example, the laundry machine 200 may independently implement its laundry treatment function, that is, the function of the laundry machine 200 may not depend on the pedestal assembly 100.

The laundry treating machine 200 may include various forms such as a washing machine, a dehydrating machine, a dryer, a washing and drying integrated machine, and the like. The specific application of the laundry machine 200 is not limited to the structure of the pedestal assembly 100 of the present utility model.

In the laundry treatment apparatus according to the embodiment of the present utility model, the pedestal assembly 100 is integrated under the laundry treatment machine 200, on the one hand, the cleaning robot 300 can be stored in a space under the laundry treatment machine 200, and the indoor space occupied by the cleaning robot 300 can be reduced; on the other hand, the laundry machine 200 is placed near the faucet and the floor drain to facilitate water intake and drainage, thus facilitating water intake and drainage to the base assembly 100 through the convenience of water intake and drainage existing in the laundry machine, and solving the water intake and drainage waterway problem of the base assembly 100.

Referring to fig. 1, a bottom wall of the accommodating chamber 30a is provided with a ramp plate 40 at an end near the opening 10b, and the ramp plate 40 is used for guiding the cleaning robot 300 into and out of the accommodating chamber 30a.

Illustratively, the bottom of the base 10 has a plurality of feet 50. The entire laundry treating apparatus is supported on the ground by the respective feet 50, that is, the respective feet 50 are required to bear the weight of the entire laundry treating apparatus and its load.

The foot 50 may be a fixed foot or an adjustable foot with adjustable support height, without limitation.

For example, referring to fig. 5, in a planar projection perpendicular to the height direction of the base 10, the maximum dimension of the base 10 is a first dimension D0, and the ratio of the dimension H (refer to fig. 4) of the base 10 in the height direction to the first dimension D0 is 13% to 52%, i.e., H/d0=13% to 52%, for example, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17.4%, 18%, 19%, 22%, 25%, 28.3%, 30%, 32.6%, 36.8%, 38%, 40%, 43%, 44%, 46%, 50%, 52%, etc. As shown in fig. 5, the dimension H of the base 10 in the height direction is the height from the top surface of the base 10 to the ground. If the base 10 has feet 50, H is the height from the top surface of the base 10 to the bottom most surface of the feet 50.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a plane projection perpendicular to the height direction. Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the direction of arrow C in fig. 1 and 3 illustrates the height direction.

The maximum size of the base 10 in a planar projection perpendicular to the height direction of the base 10 refers to the maximum value of the distance between any two points of the base 10 in the planar projection. For example, in some embodiments, the shape of the base 10 in the planar projection described above is generally rectangular, and the largest dimension is the dimension of the diagonal of the rectangle.

In this embodiment, the base 10 has a substantially flat configuration, and the base 10 has a relatively small dimension in the height direction in a condition that the cleaning robot 300 is accommodated, so that the overall center of gravity of the laundry treating apparatus can be made relatively low when the laundry treating machine 200 or the like is supported on the base 10, which is advantageous for improving the vibration smoothness of the laundry treating apparatus.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a graph showing a fitting of amplitude experimental data of the laundry machine with H/D0 in different value ranges, wherein the abscissa represents H/D0 and the ordinate represents amplitude (in mm) of the laundry machine. As can be seen from fig. 6, when H/D0 exceeds 52%, the amplitude of the laundry machine is significantly increased and vibration damping performance starts to deteriorate. Therefore, the base of the embodiment of the utility model is also beneficial to improving the vibration stability of the clothes treatment equipment on the premise of being convenient for accommodating the cleaning robot.

In some preferred embodiments, the ratio of the dimension of the base 10 in the height direction to the first dimension is 30% to 40%. For example, 30%, 31%, 32%, 32.6%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%. This size range can make the height of the base 10 and the structural layout proportion of the maximum size described above more reasonable.

Illustratively, in some embodiments, the base 10 may be a frame structure. The frame structure takes a frame consisting of beams and columns as a structure with vertical bearing and horizontal action. In this manner, the weight of the laundry machine 200 and its load may be mainly carried by the frame structure. In this embodiment, the beams and columns may be made of metal materials to improve structural strength and reliability.

In other embodiments, the base 10 may be made of plastic, so long as the structural strength is satisfactory. It should be noted that, the structural strength can be enhanced by adding a metal piece on the basis of the injection molding.

Illustratively, the base 10 is generally box-shaped in shape.

The side plates 11 can be arranged around the base 10, and the side plates 11 can play a role in decoration and attractive appearance and also play a role in reinforcing the structural strength of the base 10.

In embodiments where the base 10 is a frame structure, the side panels 11 enclose the frame structure, which is not visible from the exterior of the base 10. Because the frame structure of the base 10 bears load, the requirements on the structural strength of the side plate 11 are low, the parameters such as the material and the plate thickness of the side plate 11 can be flexibly selected, and the design flexibility is high.

For example, referring to fig. 5, the base 10 includes a top plate 12, and the top plate 12 is disposed on a top side of the accommodating space 10a and covers the accommodating space 10a. When unexpected situations such as water leakage and water seepage occur in the laundry machine 200, the dropped water is blocked by the top plate 12, and the top plate 12 plays a role in waterproof protection of each component in the accommodation space 10a, and also can strengthen the structural strength of the base 10.

In some embodiments, a water outlet is provided on the top plate 12, and the water outlet is used for guiding the water accumulated on the top plate 12 to the water draining area of the base assembly 100, and the water can be intensively drained through the water draining channel of the base assembly 100, so that the water accumulated on the top plate 12 is timely drained, and the water on the top plate 12 is prevented from spreading to the indoor floor due to excessive water.

Illustratively, when the cleaning robot 300 is stopped at, for example, a dust discharge position or a charging position within the accommodation chamber 30a, in the above-described planar projection, the projection of the cleaning robot 300 is located within the projection range of the base 10, that is, the base 10 can completely accommodate the cleaning robot 300, and no arbitrary portion of the cleaning robot 300 protrudes outside the base 10.

In other embodiments, the cleaning robot 300 may also extend out of the base 10 as appropriate, thereby reducing the need for a base depth 10/larger fit cleaning robot.

Illustratively, the base 10 has a dimension in the height direction of no more than 40cm (centimeters). The height of the base 10 is as low as possible on the premise that the cleaning robot 300 can be accommodated in the base 10, so that the overall center of gravity of the laundry treating apparatus can be reduced as much as possible, and the overall height of the laundry treating machine 200 is not excessively raised, so that a user can use the laundry treating machine 200 conveniently, for example, the height of the laundry treating machine is convenient for the user to pick up articles placed on the top surface of the laundry treating machine, and the user can put in detergent and the like conveniently.

For example, referring to fig. 1 and 3, the opening 10B is disposed at one side of the accommodating space 10a along the first direction a, referring to fig. 5, a dimension D1 of the base 10 along the first direction a is not greater than a dimension D2 along the second direction B, that is, D1 is equal to or less than D2. Wherein the second direction B, the first direction a, and the height direction C are perpendicular to each other. In this embodiment, the cleaning robot 300 enters and exits the accommodating chamber 30a in the first direction a, and some parts of the base assembly 100 and the base 30 may be arranged in the second direction, for example, the dust box 20 and the base 30 may be arranged side by side in the second direction. The dust box 20 is used for collecting sundries discharged by the cleaning robot 300, and a user can conveniently take and place the dust box 20 along the first direction and at one side close to the opening 10b.

The laundry machine 200 has a laundry treating chamber inside, and the laundry machine 200 includes a cabinet and a door disposed at one side of the cabinet in a first direction, i.e., the door and the opening 10b are located at the same side of the laundry treating apparatus, e.g., both are located at a front side of the laundry treating apparatus. Illustratively, the first direction is a front-rear direction of the laundry treating apparatus, and the second direction is a left-right direction of the laundry treating apparatus.

Illustratively, the ratio of the dimension D1 of the chassis 10 along the first direction to the dimension D2 along the second direction is 50% to 100%, i.e., d1/d2=50% to 100%. For example, 50%, 55%, 60%, 64%, 68%, 70%, 73%, 77%, 80%, 82%, 85%, 87%, 90%, 95%, 99%, 100%, etc. In this embodiment, the dimension D1 of the base 10 along the first direction and the dimension D2 along the second direction are not too different, for example, in a case that the dimension D1 along the first direction is satisfied to accommodate the cleaning robot 300, the dimension D2 along the second direction is at most twice the dimension D1 along the first direction, so that the dimension D2 along the second direction is prevented from being too large to increase the placement difficulty of the user.

In some preferred embodiments, the ratio of the dimension D1 of the base 10 along the first direction to the dimension D2 along the second direction is 70% to 100%. For example, 70%, 73%, 75%, 77%, 80%, 86%, 90%, 100%, etc. This embodiment can not only satisfy the side-by-side arrangement of the dust box 20 and the base 30 along the first direction, but also make the dust box 20 have a larger volume, and make the dimension D2 in the second direction relatively smaller, which gives consideration to the compactness of the structure.

Illustratively, the dimension D1 of the chassis 10 in the first direction is 25cm to 70cm, e.g., 25cm, 30cm, 33cm, 35cm, 25cm, 40cm, 44cm, 50cm, 55cm, 60cm, 66cm, 70cm, etc. The dimension D2 of the base 10 in the second direction is 45cm to 100cm, for example, 45cm, 48cm, 50cm, 54cm, 60cm, 66cm, 70cm, 73cm, 78cm, 80cm, 83cm, 85cm, 90cm, 93cm, 98cm, 100cm, or the like.

It should be noted that, the above-mentioned range of the dimension D1 of the base 10 along the first direction and the range of the dimension D2 along the second direction need to satisfy the relationship of d1/d2=50% -100%. For example, when d1=25 cm, the value of D2 does not exceed 50cm. When d1=60 cm, the value of D2 is greater than or equal to 60cm and not more than 100cm.

The reasonable design of the size of the base 10 can simultaneously meet the supporting effect of the upper clothes treating machine, such as a washing machine, so that the phenomenon that the washing machine vibrates greatly due to insufficient supporting is avoided, meanwhile, the size of the lower base 10 is avoided from being too large, and the occupied area is increased.

In this embodiment, the size D1 of the chassis 10 in the first direction and the size D2 in the second direction can be well matched to the sizes of the laundry treating apparatus in the first direction and the second direction.

In some preferred embodiments, the size of the chassis 10 in the first direction is 40cm to 65cm and the size of the chassis 10 in the second direction is 50cm to 70cm.

The water flow of the washing tub can be independently controlled through the water inlet valve, and is not affected by the water used by the laundry machine 200, and only the water inlet valve needs to be electrified, so that even if the laundry machine 200 is not electrified and does not work, the water inlet valve can work independently. Similarly, the water flow of the laundry machine 200 can be independently controlled without being affected by the water used by the base 30.

In one embodiment, the water intake waterway is communicated with the tap water pipe. In one aspect, the tap water pipe continuously provides tap water to the cleaning tank. This saves the structure of a water tank or the like for supplying water to the cleaning tank.
