Under the blocking action of the third water baffle 225, part of the solution flows to the pressure relief port 226, so that the phenomenon that the pressure of the first supply pipeline is too high and the first supply pipeline is damaged due to the fact that the mixed solution of the washing agent and the washing water flows to the first outlet 222 completely when the pressure in the first cavity 22 is too high is reduced. The relief port 226 is configured to open when the pressure in the first chamber 22 is excessive, and the specific opening pressure may be set according to the bearing pressure of the first supply line.

As shown in connection with fig. 1 to 6, in some embodiments of the application, the second cavity 23 comprises a first communication section 231 and a second communication section 232, the first communication section 231 being provided upstream of the second communication section 232, the second communication section 232 being provided with a communication port 235 communicating with the wash chamber.

In particular, the second communication section 232 may be used to store solid lotion. Since the first communication section 231 is disposed upstream of the second communication section 232, a portion of the washing water can flow into the second communication section 232 through the first communication section 231, so as to dissolve the solid detergent in the second communication section 232 into a liquid state and drop into the detergent chamber through the through-hole 235.

As shown in connection with fig. 3-6, in some embodiments of the application, the first communication section 231 is provided with a second outlet 237 for communicating with a second supply line.

Specifically, the second chamber 23 is formed with a second inlet 236 and a second outlet 237, the second inlet 236 being in communication with the second inlet pipe 42, the second outlet 237 being provided in a side wall of the first communication section 231 and being in communication with the second supply line. The washing water may flow to the second supply line through the second outlet 237 and serve to wash the door glass during the flow from the first communication segment 231 to the second communication segment 232.

Referring to fig. 3 to 6, in some embodiments of the present application, at least one baffle is provided between the second inlet 236 and the second outlet 237, and the baffle is used to guide the wash water flowing from the second inlet 236 to the second outlet 237.

Specifically, a first baffle 233 is disposed within the first communication segment 231, and the first baffle 233 is disposed between the second inlet 236 and the second outlet 237. The first deflector 233 is disposed toward the second outlet 237, and the washing water introduced into the first communication section 231 through the second inlet 236 flows toward the second outlet 237 by the deflector 233, thereby facilitating inflow into the second supply line through the second outlet 237.

As shown in connection with fig. 3 to 6, in some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of baffles are provided in the first communication section 231, at least a portion of the number of baffles being used to guide the wash water from the second inlet 236 to the second communication section 232.

Specifically, a first baffle 233 and a second baffle 234 are disposed within the first communication section 231, wherein the first baffle 233 is disposed upstream of the second baffle 234, and the second outlet 237 is disposed between the first baffle 233 and the second baffle 234. The first deflector 233 is disposed toward the second outlet 237, and the washing water introduced into the first communication section 231 through the second inlet 236 flows toward the second outlet 237 by the deflector 233. The second deflector 234 is disposed toward the second communication section 232 so as to facilitate the deflector of the wash water, which does not flow into the second supply line, to the second communication section 232 and into the second wash chamber through the through-hole 235.

Referring to fig. 3-6, in some embodiments of the present application, the lotion cartridge assembly 20 further includes a cover plate (not shown) and a shroud 25, the cover plate and shroud 25 being disposed on the exterior of the cartridge 21, the shroud 25 connecting the cover plate to the top plate of the cartridge 21, the cover plate, shroud 25 and at least a portion of the top plate defining a first cavity 22 and a second cavity 23 therebetween.

Specifically, the first cavity 22 and the second cavity 23 are provided outside the case 21, respectively. In a specific operation, the coaming 25 and the cover plate can be arranged on the outer side of the top of the box body 21 of the existing lotion box, and the cover plate and the top plate of the box body are connected through the coaming 25, so that the cover plate, the coaming 25 and at least part of the top plate form a closed cavity, and a partition plate is arranged in the closed cavity to divide the closed cavity into a first cavity 22 and a second cavity 23. Meanwhile, a through hole 235 is formed in the top plate in a penetrating mode, and the second cavity 23 and the second lotion cavity are communicated through the through hole 235. Because the first cavity 22 and the second cavity 23 are respectively arranged outside the box body 21, the inner space of the original box body 21 is not occupied, and the reduction of the capacity of the lotion cavity is reduced.

As shown in connection with fig. 1-6, in some embodiments of the present application, the lotion cartridge assembly 20 further includes a water passage (not shown) provided between the second chamber 23 and the top plate, the first chamber 22 being in communication with the first supply line through the water passage.

Specifically, since the first cavity 22 and the second cavity 23 are disposed on top of the box 21, a water channel can be disposed between the second cavity 23 and the box 21, and the first supply pipeline is communicated with the first outlet 222 of the first cavity 22 through the water channel.

In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, an air inlet structure may be further disposed on the first supply pipe, where the air inlet structure is used to introduce air outside the first supply pipe into the first supply pipe, so as to increase the air content of the lotion in the first supply pipe, further increase the number of bubbles formed by the injected lotion, increase the contact area between the lotion and the laundry, increase the utilization rate of the lotion, and enhance the washing effect of the laundry.

Meanwhile, a large amount of bubbles can generate more foam under the impact by forming bubbles from the injected lotion, and cleaning components are dispersed, so that the foam can cover more clothes areas, the contact area of the lotion and the clothes is increased, the washing effect is improved, and a small amount of washing water can be introduced into the clothes treatment cavity 1041, so that the clothes can be wetted, and compared with a conventional water washing mode of introducing a large amount of washing water into the clothes treatment cavity 1041, the use of the washing water can be effectively reduced.

As shown in connection with fig. 2 and 7, in some embodiments of the present application, the first supply line includes a first liquid supply pipe 30 and a first spray head 10, wherein an air intake structure is provided on the first liquid supply pipe 30 and/or the first spray head 10.

As shown in connection with fig. 7-9, in some embodiments of the present application, the first spray head 10 communicates with the first chamber 22 via a first supply tube 30. The first nozzle 10 is provided with an air inlet structure communicated with the outside. The first nozzle 10 includes a pipe body 11 and a pipe cavity 12 provided inside the pipe body 11, and the air intake structure includes an air intake hole 13 provided at a side wall of the pipe body 11 and communicating the inside and the outside of the pipe body 11. The gas outside the tube 11 may enter the lumen 12 through the suction hole 13, thereby serving to increase the gas content in the lumen 12, and thus the gas content of the wash agent and/or wash water in the lumen 12.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the lumen 12 includes a first lumen segment 121, a second lumen segment 122, and a third lumen segment 123 that are sequentially connected, a flow area of the first lumen segment 121 is gradually reduced in a direction of the first lumen segment 121 toward the second lumen segment 122, a flow area of the third lumen segment 123 is gradually increased in a direction of the second lumen segment 122 toward the third lumen segment 123, and the suction hole 13 is provided at a sidewall of the tube body 11 and communicates with the inside and the outside of the tube body 11.

By arranging the first lumen segment 121, the second lumen segment 122 and the third lumen segment 123 in the above-described configuration, the interior of the lumen 12 is formed in a venturi-like configuration and a venturi effect can be generated accordingly. Venturi effect means that when fluid passes through a narrow portion of a pipe, it causes the fluid velocity to increase there while the static pressure decreases. Because the second lumen segment 122 is narrower than the first lumen segment 121 and the third lumen segment 123, by communicating the suction hole 13 with the second lumen segment 122, when fluid circulates in the lumen 12, such as wash agent and/or wash water circulates in the lumen 12, under the venturi effect in the lumen 12, the external air of the tube 11 can enter into the lumen 12 through the suction hole 13, thereby increasing the air content in the wash agent and/or wash water in the lumen 12, further increasing the number of bubbles formed by the wash agent and/or wash water ejected from the first nozzle 10, increasing the contact area of the wash agent and/or wash water with the laundry, and improving the washing effect of the laundry.

As shown in connection with fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, a communication chamber 14 is further provided in the sidewall of the tube body 11, and the suction hole 13 communicates with the second lumen section 122 through the communication chamber 14.

The through-hole provided with the communication chamber 14 communicates the suction hole 13 and the second lumen section 122, and the fluid flowing through the second lumen section 122 can be prevented from flowing out to the outside of the tube body 11 through the suction hole 13 by providing the flow area and the flow path of the communication chamber 14.

Specifically, in some embodiments of the present application, the communication cavity 14 includes a first communication portion 141 and a second communication portion 142, and the second lumen segment 122, the first communication portion 141, the second communication portion 142, and the suction hole 13 are sequentially communicated, wherein, in the axial direction of the second lumen segment 122, a dimension L1 of the first communication portion 141 is smaller than a dimension L2 of the second communication portion 142, smaller than a dimension L3 of the suction hole 13, and smaller than a dimension L4 of the second lumen segment 122, respectively.

I.e. the end of the communication chamber 14 adjacent to the second lumen segment 122 is provided with a minimum opening size, so that the fluid in the second lumen segment 122 is prevented from flowing out of the tube body 11 through the communication chamber 14 and the suction hole 13 in sequence. Meanwhile, since the dimension L1 of the first communicating portion 141 is smaller than the dimension L2 of the second communicating portion 142, thereby forming a bent structure, the fluid in the second lumen section 122 is prevented from flowing out of the tube body 11 through the communicating chamber 14 and the suction hole 13 in order in some embodiments.

As shown in connection with fig. 7-9, in some embodiments of the present application, the opening area of the suction port 13 may be consistent with the flow area of the second lumen segment 122, thereby increasing the amount of air intake within the lumen 12.

As shown in connection with fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, along the axial direction of the second lumen segment 122, the projection of the first communicating portion 141 and the projection of the second communicating portion 142 are respectively in a partial circular shape, wherein the range of the central angle a corresponding to the projection of the first communicating portion 141 is 0 ° < a+.ltoreq.180°, and/or the range of the central angle b corresponding to the projection of the second communicating portion 142 is 0 ° < b+.ltoreq.180°.

That is, the first communicating portion 141 may have a fan-shaped structure, or a semi-circular structure, and/or the second communicating portion 142 may have a fan-shaped structure, or a semi-circular structure, thereby increasing the flow area of the communicating chamber 14 and thus increasing the intake air amount of the lumen 12.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the central angle a corresponding to the projection of the first communicating portion 141 has a value of 180 °, the central angle b corresponding to the projection of the second communicating portion 142 has a value of 180 °, the second lumen segment 122 is a circular tube lumen segment, the diameter dimension R of the second lumen segment 122 corresponds to the dimension L4 of the second lumen segment 122 in the axial direction, the second lumen segment 122 has a flow area S1, and the first communicating portion 141 has a minimum flow area S2, wherein S1 is greater than S2.

Specifically, the first communicating portion 141 and the second communicating portion 142 are each of a semicircular structure. By setting S1 to be larger than S2, the flow area of the first communicating portion 141 is smaller than the flow area of the second lumen 122, and thus the occurrence of a phenomenon in which the fluid in the second lumen 122 flows out of the tube 11 through the first communicating portion 141 and the suction hole 13 is reduced.

Specifically, S1: the ratio of S2 is 4:1. wherein, the diameter dimension of the second lumen segment 122 is R, the flow area of the second lumen segment 122 is s1=pi R2, the arc length of the first communicating portion 141 is pi R, the dimension L1 of the first communicating portion 141 in the axial direction, and the flow area of the first communicating portion 141 is s2=pi RL1, because of S1: the ratio of S2 is 4:1, so that the ratio of R to L1 is 4:1. and since the dimension L4 in the axial direction of the second lumen segment 122 is equal to the diameter dimension of the second lumen segment 122, which is R, L4 is equal to L1 of the 4 portions.

In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7 to 9, the air suction hole 13 is a circular hole, and the diameter dimension L3 of the air suction hole 13 is in the range of 2mm < L3 < 3.6mm.

Since, in some embodiments of the application, the open area of the suction holes 13 corresponds to the flow area of the second lumen segment 122, R may correspond to the value of L3, i.e. 2mm R3.6 mm. And 2 mm.ltoreq.L4.ltoreq.3.6 mm since in some embodiments of the present application the dimension L4 in the axial direction of the second lumen segment 122 is equal to the diameter dimension R of the second lumen segment 122.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, a liquid outlet 17 communicating with the lumen 12 is provided at an end of the third lumen segment 123 away from the second lumen segment 122, and an axis of the air suction hole 13 is disposed at an angle of 90 ° to 180 ° with respect to an axis of the liquid outlet 17.

Namely, along the circumferential direction of the second lumen segment 122, the liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 are arranged at an included angle of 90-180 degrees, so that the phenomenon that the fluid flows into the air suction hole 13 under the action of air flow after flowing out through the liquid outlet 17 is reduced. Specifically, the liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 may have any angle value between 90 ° … ° … ° … °. When the liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 are arranged at 180 degrees, the phenomenon that the fluid flows into the air suction hole 13 under the action of the air flow after flowing out through the liquid outlet 17 can be reduced to the greatest extent.

As shown in fig. 2 and fig. 7 to fig. 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the outer surface of the tube body 11 is further provided with a fixing portion 15 in a protruding manner, and the liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 are disposed on the same side of the fixing portion 15 along the axial direction of the second lumen segment 122.

Specifically, the fixing portion 15 is used to fix the entire installation position of the first head 10. Since the laundry treating drum 104 rotates during washing of laundry, the first spray head 10 is not adapted to pass directly through the laundry treating drum 104 and to be inserted into the laundry treating chamber 1041. In some embodiments of the present application, the first spray head 10 may be provided on a door seal 105 at the front end of the laundry treating drum 104, that is, the front end of the laundry treating drum 104 toward one end of the door body 103. The fixing portion 15 is clamped inside the door seal 105, and one end, provided with the liquid outlet 17, of the first spray head 10 penetrates through the door seal 105 and is arranged towards the inside of the clothes treatment cavity 1041, the first spray head 10 is arranged towards the clothes treatment cavity 1041 in a spraying mode, the other end of the first spray head 10 is arranged outside the door seal 105 and is used for being communicated with the first liquid supply pipe 30. The liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 are commonly arranged on the same side of the fixing part 15 facing the clothes treating cavity 1041, namely, the liquid outlet 17 and the air suction hole 13 are commonly arranged on the inner side of the door seal 105 communicated with the clothes treating cavity 1041, even if the leakage phenomenon of fluid occurs at the air suction hole 13, the leaked fluid cannot fall onto other electrical parts outside the clothes treating cylinder 104, so that the occurrence of safety accidents is reduced.

In some embodiments of the present application, the maximum distance between the suction hole 13 and the fixing portion 15 is smaller than the minimum distance between the liquid outlet 17 and the fixing portion 15.

When the first spray head 10 is installed inside the laundry treating apparatus 1, the first spray head 10 is disposed in a substantially vertical direction or is disposed at an angle to the vertical direction. The liquid outlet 17 is disposed at the bottommost end of the first nozzle 10 along the vertical direction, the air suction hole 13 is disposed above the liquid outlet 17, the fixing portion 15 is disposed above the air suction hole 13, and the maximum distance between the air suction hole 13 and the fixing portion 15 is smaller than the minimum distance between the liquid outlet 17 and the fixing portion 15, i.e. any position on the air suction hole 13 is not located below the liquid outlet 17, so that the phenomenon that fluid flows into the air suction hole 13 under the action of air flow after flowing out through the liquid outlet 17 is reduced.

Referring to fig. 7-9, in some embodiments of the present application, the lumen 12 further includes a fourth lumen segment 124, the fourth lumen segment 124 being disposed at an end of the first lumen segment 121 remote from the second lumen segment 122, the fourth lumen segment 124 being provided with a fluid inlet 16 in communication with the lumen 12.

Specifically, the top of the fourth lumen segment 124 is provided with a fluid inlet 16, and the first nozzle 10 communicates with the first fluid supply tube 30 via the fluid inlet 16 for delivering fluid into the interior of the lumen 12. The fourth lumen segment 124 is generally a straight lumen segment to facilitate fluid delivery or to facilitate other structures within the fourth lumen segment 124.

As shown in connection with fig. 7-9, in some embodiments of the present application, a turbulence structure 18 is also provided in the lumen 12 such that fluid flowing through the turbulence structure 18 in the lumen 12 has a partial velocity in the circumferential direction of the lumen 12.

By arranging the turbulence structures 18 in the tube cavity 12 of the first spray head 10, the fluid flowing through the turbulence structures 18 in the tube cavity 12 has a sub-speed along the circumferential direction of the tube cavity 12, when the fluid flows out through the tube cavity 12, such as the washing agent and/or the washing water flows out through the tube cavity 12, the sub-speed along the circumferential direction of the tube cavity 12 can increase the spraying angle of the fluid, so that the spraying area of the first spray head 10 is increased, the contact area of the washing agent and/or the washing water with clothes is increased, the utilization rate of the washing agent and/or the washing water is increased, and the washing effect of the clothes is improved.

Specifically, the spoiler structure 18 may be disposed within the fourth lumen segment 124. In the flowing process of the fluid in the pipe cavity 12, the flow is firstly subjected to the action of the turbulence structure 18 to form a speed division along the circumferential direction of the pipe cavity 12, then the air content in the fluid is increased through the air supplementing action of the air suction holes 13, and after the fluid is sprayed out from the liquid outlet 17, the fluid can be sprayed at an angle in the circumferential direction of the pipe cavity 12 in a diffusing manner, and a large number of bubble structures are formed, so that the contact area of a medium and clothes, such as the contact area of a lotion and/or washing water and the clothes, is effectively improved, the utilization rate of the lotion and/or the washing water is increased, and the washing effect of the clothes is improved.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the spoiler 18 includes at least one spoiler 181, and the panel surface of the spoiler 181 is disposed at an angle with respect to the axial direction of the lumen 12. Because the face of spoiler 181 is the contained angle setting with the axial direction of lumen 12, when the fluid flow through spoiler 181, the effect fluid through spoiler 181 can flow along the face direction of spoiler 181 to make the flow direction of fluid be the contained angle setting with the axial direction of lumen 12, and then make the fluid have the minute speed along the circumference direction of lumen 12.

As shown in connection with fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the spoiler structure 18 includes a plurality of spoilers 181, the plurality of spoilers 181 are disposed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the lumen 12, and the panel surface of any one spoiler 181 has the same angle with the axial direction of the lumen 12.

By simultaneously arranging the plurality of spoilers 181, the turbulence effect of the turbulence structures 18 can be improved, so that the diffusion and injection angle of the lotion and/or the washing water in the circumferential direction of the pipe cavity 12 after being sprayed out from the liquid outlet 17 is improved, the contact area of the lotion and/or the washing water and clothes is increased, the utilization rate of the lotion and/or the washing water is increased, and the washing effect of the clothes is improved.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the spoiler structure 18 further includes a connection ring 182, wherein the connection ring 182 is provided with a first through hole 183 along an axial direction of the lumen 12, and one end of each of the plurality of spoilers 181 is connected to an outer circumferential surface of the connection ring 182.

Specifically, one ends of the plurality of spoilers 181 are respectively connected with the connection ring 182, and the other ends of the plurality of spoilers 181 are respectively connected with the inner wall of the lumen 12. The plurality of spoilers 181 are simultaneously fixed through the connecting ring 182, so that the plurality of spoilers 181 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the connecting ring 182, and the connecting ring 182 is provided with a first through hole 183 in a penetrating manner along the axial direction, so that a medium at the central position of the pipe cavity 12 flows through the connecting ring 182 through the first through hole 183, and the medium at the circumferential edge of the pipe cavity 12 has a partial velocity along the circumferential direction of the pipe cavity 12 under the turbulence effect of the spoilers 181.

In some embodiments of the present application, the structure of the connection ring 182 may be omitted, one end of the plurality of spoilers 181 may be connected to the inner wall surface of the lumen 12, and the other end thereof may be suspended, and the plurality of spoilers 181 may be disposed at intervals around the circumferential direction of the lumen 12.

As shown in fig. 10, in some embodiments of the present application, the number of the spoilers 181 is two, and the two spoilers 181 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the lumen 12, and the two spoilers 181 are offset along the axial direction of the lumen 12.

Specifically, one ends of the two spoilers 181 are respectively connected to the inner wall surface of the lumen 12, and the other ends of the two spoilers 181 are respectively disposed at intervals from the inner wall surface of the lumen 12. The two spoilers 181 are oppositely arranged at 180 ° intervals, and at least part of the structure of one spoiler 181 is arranged above the other spoiler 181. After the fluid flows into the lumen 12 through the liquid inlet 16, the fluid first collides with the spoiler 181 located above, thereby forming a velocity component in the circumferential direction of the lumen 12. And then collide with the spoiler 181 located below again during the falling of the fluid, which in some embodiments increases the velocity of the fluid in the circumferential direction of the lumen 12.

In some embodiments, in order to increase the probability of fluid sequentially colliding with the two spoilers 181 during the process of flowing through the lumen 12, the dimensions of the two spoilers 181 in the radial direction of the lumen 12 exceed the radial dimensions of the lumen 12, respectively, that is, the two spoilers 181 are disposed in a partially overlapping manner in the axial direction of the lumen 12.

In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 11, the turbulence structure 18 is connected to the inner wall surface of the lumen 12, and the turbulence structure 18 is formed with at least one turbulence channel 185, and the axial direction of the turbulence channel 185 is disposed at an angle to the axial direction of the lumen 12.

Specifically, one or more turbulence channels 185 may be disposed in the lumen 12 at the same time, where the axial direction of the turbulence channels 185 is disposed at an angle to the axial direction of the lumen 12, so that the fluid can form a velocity component along the circumferential direction of the lumen 12 when flowing through the turbulence channels 185 during the process of flowing through the lumen 12.

The spoiler structure 18 may include a mounting block 184, where an outer wall surface of the mounting block 184 is attached to an inner wall surface of the lumen 12, and the mounting block 184 is provided with at least two spoiler channels 185 in a penetrating manner, and the at least two spoiler channels 185 are disposed in an intersecting manner.

By providing the outer wall surface of the mounting block 184 in contact with the inner wall surface of the lumen 12, there is no space for fluid communication between the mounting block 184 and the lumen 12, so that the fluid in the lumen 12 can only flow out through the turbulence channels 185, and most or even all of the fluid in the lumen 12 is formed to have a partial velocity in the circumferential direction of the lumen 12. And at least two turbulence channels 185 are disposed at an intersection, i.e. the fluid flowing out from the turbulence channels 185 can flow out in different directions, so as to increase the collision probability of the fluid flowing out from the turbulence channels 185, and in some embodiments, increase the velocity of the fluid along the circumferential direction of the lumen 12.

As shown in connection with fig. 7 to 11, the communication chamber 14 in the above several embodiments includes the first communication portion 141 and the second communication portion 142, respectively, so as to reduce the leakage of the lumen 12 through the suction hole 13. In some embodiments of the present application, the structure of the communication chamber 14 may also be simplified.

As shown in FIG. 12, in some embodiments of the application, the suction port 13 communicates with the second lumen segment 122 through the communication lumen 14. Wherein the communication chamber 14 may be a straight pipe chamber, or a partial circular arc pipe chamber, thereby reducing the arrangement of the first communication portion 141 and the second communication portion 142. The suction holes 13 may be round holes or square holes, and the flow area of the suction holes 13 is gradually reduced along the direction of the outside of the tube body 11 toward the inside, so that leakage of the tube cavity 12 through the suction holes 13 can be reduced.

As shown in fig. 12, in some embodiments of the present application, an end of the first cavity section 121 near the second cavity section 122 is disposed obliquely toward the direction of the liquid outlet 17, so that during the process of flowing the fluid through the first cavity section 121 to the second cavity section 122, the velocity of the fluid flowing toward the direction of the liquid outlet 17 can be increased, and the injection angle of the fluid is increased, and the injection area of the first nozzle 10 is increased.
