Abstract

The utility model discloses a washing machine which uses a water storage container (3) as an outer shell of the washing machine, the water storage container can be filled with water in advance when any operations, such as water seepage operation, washing or rinsing operation, water discharging operation, dewatering operation, etc., are carried out by the washing machine. A drain valve (5) with a large opening is opened when a washing drum (2) needs to be filled with water, and the water in the water storage container (3) is discharged rapidly to reach the required water level. The time for the whole washing process is shortened by shortening the water inlet time under the condition that the washing intensity is unchanged; the water in the water storage container (3) can be heated in advance by a heating device (7) in the water storage container (3), and the time for the washing process is further shortened.

Description

Washing machine

The utility model relates to a kind of washing machine.

The washing procedure of present commercially available washing machine is formed by following operation: water inlet--washing or the rinsing drying that--discharges water--.This program can repeat by the needs of washing intensity, but each operation must be carried out successively in the program.The washing machine of certain model has inserted wash water again and has added hot work in program, heater heats the water that enters washtub.Analyze the washing procedure of above-mentioned washing machine, the problem of existence is: the water inlet operation in the program does not have direct influence to clean result, and its time that takies should be short more good more.But the investigation result to commercially available washing machine shows: the time of water inlet operation accounts for 1/4～1/3 of whole washing procedure, has spun out whole washing procedure.Addressing this problem the simplest approach is to shorten flooding time by strengthening the water inlet caliber.But this also is subjected to the restriction of the indoor water path tube of user except that the restriction that is subjected to washing machine inflow caliber itself, implement the comparison difficulty.Another way that addresses this problem is to have designed fast washing procedure as part model washing machine, though it has shortened the program for washing required time, that is realized by shortening the laundry operation time, therefore is unsuitable for requiring to keep the situation of former washing intensity.In addition, for the washing machine that has increased the wash water heating function because heater is that the water that enters in the washtub is heated, existing problems be add hot work must water inlet do industry begin or finish after carry out.

The purpose of this utility model is that a kind of improved washing machine will be provided, it can effectively solve aforesaid two problems simultaneously, can shorten the former washing machine inflow activity duration, can the washing machine with wash water heating function be heated water before industry is done in water inlet in advance again, shortened whole washing procedure required time.

The purpose of this utility model is achieved in that with water storage container is double does all or part of washing machine shell, and this container has water inlet, the bottom that can be connected with the water source that big mouthful of drain valve arranged, and drain valve is positioned at more than the water level of washing machine requirement.Carry out water inlet, washing or rinsing, discharge water, in any operation such as drying, all can be to the water storage container retaining of going ahead of the rest.Like this, when washtub need be intake, big mouthful of drain valve opened, the water in the container is let out down rapidly and is entered washtub and meet the requirements of water level, has shortened the flooding time in the original program, and then has reduced whole washing procedure required times; And for the washing machine that needs the wash water heating, then can in water storage container, in advance water be heated, further shortened the washing procedure required time.The utility model only needs to increase the water storage container that bring the mouth of a river and big mouthful drain valve on conventional washer, and allows its double washing machine shell of doing, therefore simple in structure, implement convenient.Its starting point is to shorten flooding time simultaneously, does not therefore reduce the washing intensity of former washing machine and washing procedure thereof.

Two embodiments of the present utility model are described below with reference to accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is first embodiment of the utility model washing machine cutaway view of (when being used for upward-acting door formula washing machine).

Fig. 2 is the cutaway view along Fig. 1 A-A line.

Fig. 3 is the cutaway view of another embodiment when opening the door tumbling-box washing machine (be used for side) of the utility model washing machine.

Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show the embodiment of the utility model on upward-acting door formula washing machine.This washing machine has the outer bucket of a washing [1], washing to hold concurrently to dry cover bucket [2] and the water storage container washing machine shell [3] of holding concurrently.Water inlet [4] is opened for long, as long as connect water supply pipe, though washing machine in performing a programme as intake, wash, discharge water, in any operation such as drying, can both be to the water storage container retaining of going ahead of the rest.Valve during the water supply pipe water filling [6] is opened so that discharge air in the case, and valve [6] was closed in order to avoid water is excessive when water was full; Big mouth water pouring valve [5] is opened when washtub need be intake, valve [6] is opened so that eliminate negative pressure in the case simultaneously, and the water in the container can rush down down fast, and when the water level in washtub reached requirement, drain valve [5] cut out.Heater [7] can heat in advance to the water in the water storage container.

Fig. 3 shows the embodiment of the utility model on side is opened the door drum type washing machine.This washing machine has the outer bucket of a washing [1], washing to hold concurrently to dry cover bucket [2], water storage container hold concurrently washing machine top case [3] and washing machine shell [8].Water inlet [4] is opened for long, as long as connect water supply pipe, though washing machine in performing a programme as intake, wash, discharge water, in any operation such as drying, can both be to the water storage container retaining of going ahead of the rest.Valve during the water supply pipe water filling [6] is opened so that discharge air in the case, and valve [6] was closed in order to avoid water is excessive when water was full; Big mouth water pouring valve [5] is opened when washtub need be intake, valve [6] is opened so that eliminate negative pressure in the case simultaneously, and the water in the container can rush down down fast, and when the water level in washtub reached requirement, drain valve [5] cut out.Heater [7] can heat in advance to the water in the water storage container.Compare with first embodiment, the present embodiment need not reserved the hole for the washtub opening at the water storage container center, implements convenient.
