Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a tripod assembly according to an embodiment of the present application under a first view angle, and fig. 4 is an exploded view of the tripod assembly shown in fig. 3. Tripod assembly 100 includes a tripod body 110, a housing 120, and a first seal 130.
The tripod body 110 includes a hub 111 and a leg 112 extending outward from an edge of the hub 111, and the leg 112 includes three legs, for example. The hub 111 is fixed with a rotation shaft 113 extending perpendicular to the direction of the hub 111. Illustratively, the shaft 113 is secured to the hub 111 by screws. The tripod body 110 is made of metal, such as aluminum. The tripod body 110 has a structure with a plurality of cavities inside, and the cavities are communicated with the outside, so that if the tripod body contacts with sewage or wet and hot steam for a long time, the tripod body 110 is easy to corrode, and dirt is easy to collect and bacteria are easy to grow.
Based on the above-mentioned problem, add shell 120, shell 120 is for example plastics material, and the surface is comparatively moist smooth, is difficult for the card to go into dirty. The casing 120 wraps the tripod body 110 and is hermetically connected with the peripheral wall of the rotary shaft 113 to form a closed space accommodating the tripod body 110.
Illustratively, the housing 120 includes a first portion 121 and a second portion 122, the first portion 121 and the second portion 122 snap together to define a receiving space having an opening 123.

It can be appreciated that the sealing connection between the housing 120 and the rotating shaft 113 is a first reseal, so that the sewage can be prevented from entering the housing 120 from the gap between the rotating shaft 113 and the housing 120 to pollute and corrode the tripod body 110. The first sealing ring 130 is a second resealing, in practical application, if the first resealing fails, the sewage enters the housing 120 from the gap between the rotating shaft 113 and the housing 120 and reaches the hub 111, and the sewage is blocked by the first sealing ring 130, so that the sewage is prevented from further reaching the foot 112, the contaminated and corroded area of the tripod body 110 is reduced as much as possible, and the service life of the tripod body 110 is prolonged.
According to the tripod assembly 100 provided by the embodiment of the application, the tripod body 110 is wrapped and sealed by adding the shell 120, so that the tripod body 110 can be prevented from being contacted with sewage to store dirt and be corroded. In addition, the first sealing ring 130 is additionally arranged to seal the foot 112 of the tripod body 110 at least, so that the tightness of the tripod body 110 is further improved, bacteria can be prevented from growing due to dirt collection of the tripod body 110, the effect of clothes treatment is affected, the probability of damage of the tripod body 110 due to corrosion is reduced, and the service life of the tripod body 110 and the reliability of work are improved.
Further, referring to fig. 7 to 8, fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of a tripod assembly according to an embodiment of the present application under a third view angle, and fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a tripod body according to an embodiment of the present application.
The end surface of the foot 112 of the tripod body 110 far from the hub 111 is fixed with a connecting part 115. Through holes (not shown) are formed in the housing 120 at positions corresponding to the connection portions 115, and the connection portions 115 are inserted through the through holes and close the through holes. The connection portion 115 is used to connect with the inner tub 200 so that the tripod assembly 100 is mounted to the inner tub 200. Illustratively, the connection part 115 is provided with a screw groove opened toward the sidewall of the inner tub 200, and a bolt passes through the sidewall of the inner tub 200 from a side of the sidewall of the inner tub 200 away from the connection part 115 and is screw-coupled with the connection part 115, thereby allowing the tripod assembly 100 to be mounted to the inner tub 200. The material of the connection portion 115 may be, for example, plastic or metal.
In some embodiments, the housing 120 further includes a first inner wall (not shown) surrounding the through hole, and a third sealing ring 116 is disposed between the first inner wall and the connecting portion 115, and the first inner wall, the connecting portion 115, and the third sealing ring 116 are in interference fit to close the through hole. The material of the third seal ring 116 is, for example, rubber. In other embodiments, the first inner wall and the connecting portion 115 may be sealed by glue.
The end of the foot 112 far away from the hub 111 is sleeved with a second sealing ring 117, and the housing 120 is in interference fit with the second sealing ring 117 so as to seal the end of the foot 112 near the hub 111. The material of the second seal 117 is, for example, rubber. Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic view of a portion of the tripod assembly shown in fig. 7, taken along the direction B-B. The second seal 117 is disposed between the foot 112 and the housing 120, and is in interference fit with the foot 112 and the housing 120. It will be appreciated that the third seal ring 116 is a first reseal to prevent the waste water from entering the interior of the housing 120 through the gap between the connection portion 115 and the through-hole, thereby corroding and contaminating the tripod body 110. The second sealing ring 117 is a second resealing, in practical application, if the third sealing ring 116 fails, so that sewage enters the housing 120, the second sealing ring 117 can block the sewage between the second sealing ring 117 and the third sealing ring 116, the sewage is prevented from reaching the portion of the foot 112 close to the hub 111, the contaminated and corroded area of the tripod body 110 is reduced as much as possible, and the service life of the tripod body 110 is prolonged.
Illustratively, the foot 112 is provided with an annular groove, in which the second sealing ring 117 is partially received, and the annular groove is used for limiting the second sealing ring 117, so as to prevent the second sealing ring 117 from being displaced to lose tightness.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the tripod assembly 100 is provided with connecting holes 140 at positions corresponding to the three legs 112, wherein the connecting holes 140 are used for driving screws, and are connected with the bottom cover of the inner barrel 200 by the screws, so as to improve the structural strength of the tripod assembly 100 mounted on the inner barrel 200.
According to the tripod assembly and the clothes treatment equipment provided by the embodiment of the application, the tripod body 110 is sealed and wrapped by sleeving the shell 120 outside the tripod body, so that the tripod body 110 can be prevented from being contacted with sewage to store dirt and be corroded. In addition, the sealing ring is additionally arranged at the position, close to the opening 123 and the through hole, in the shell 120 to seal part of the tripod body 110 again, so that the area and the possibility that the tripod body 110 is corroded are further reduced, bacteria can be prevented from being bred due to dirt collection of the tripod body 110, the effect of clothes treatment is affected, the probability that the tripod body 110 is corroded to be damaged is reduced, and the service life and the working reliability of the tripod body 110 are improved.
