- A
sprinkler device 100 for a condenser of a washer-dryer according to embodiments of a first aspect of the present disclosure will be described below with reference toFigs. 1-6 . Thesprinkler device 100 has advantages of anti-siphon effect, low cost, simple manufacturing process, and good sprinkling effect. - As illustrated in
Figs. 1-6 , thesprinkler device 100 according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes abody 110, awater dividing member 120, and ananti-siphon diaphragm 130. - Specifically, the
body 110 defines awater input passage 101, awater output passage 102, and ananti-siphon chamber 103 therein. Theanti-siphon chamber 103 is communicated between thewater input passage 101 and thewater output passage 102. Thebody 110 is provided with aspout 104 in communication with thewater output passage 102. Thewater dividing member 120 is arranged in theanti-siphon chamber 103, and defines a plurality offlow passages 122 configured to be communicated with thewater input passage 101 and thewater output passage 102. Theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is arranged in theanti-siphon chamber 103 and located at a side of thewater dividing member 120 towards the water input passage 101 (e.g. located at an upper side of thewater dividing member 120 in drawings). Theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is configured to move to an open position under the impact of an influent water flow. Theflow passages 122 are communicated with thewater input passage 101 when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is located in the open position, and theflow passages 122 are disconnected from thewater input passage 101 when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in a closed position. - The working process of the
sprinkler device 100 according to embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. - Water enters the
water input passage 101, and the water pressure thrusts theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 from the closed position to the open position, such that theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 abuts against thewater dividing member 120 and the water enters theanti-siphon chamber 103. The water flow is divided into a plurality of strands along theflow passages 122 and branched from sides of thewater dividing member 120, then converges, and is ejected from thespout 104 via thewater output passage 102 in an accelerated way, so as to clean the condenser. When the water flows reversely, that is, the water flows in a direction from thewater output passage 102 to thewater input passage 101, the water pressure thrusts theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 from the open position to the closed position, such that theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 leaves thewater dividing member 120 and abuts against thewater input passage 101. In such a case, theflow passages 122 can be disconnected from thewater input passage 101 to realize the purpose of preventing siphoning. - The
sprinkler device 100 according to embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve the anti-siphon effect, reduce the production cost, simplify the manufacturing process, and obtain good sprinkling effect, without using a one-way valve. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in
Figs. 2 and3 , thewater input passage 101 is located above theanti-siphon chamber 103, so that the water can smoothly enter thesprinkler device 100 under the action of gravity. The maximum diameter of theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is not greater than a distance between the twoflow passages 122 that are farthest apart, to ensure that thewater input passage 101 is smoothly communicated with theflow passages 122 when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in the open position. Meanwhile, the minimum diameter of theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is not less than the maximum diameter of thewater input passage 101, to ensure that the diameter of theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is greater than the diameter of thewater input passage 101, such that when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in the closed position, thewater input passage 101 and theflow passages 122 can be reliably disconnected to prevent the water from flowing out from thewater input passage 101, so as to achieve the anti-siphon effect. - Preferably, as illustrated in
Figs. 3 and6 , theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 has a circular cross section, and the diameter of the circular shape gradually increases in a direction from thewater input passage 101 to thewater output passage 102. Thus, when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in the open position, theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is deformed towards thewater dividing member 120 under the action of water pressure, so as to communicate thewater input passage 101 with theflow passages 122; when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in the closed position, theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 completely abuts against a water outlet of thewater input passage 101 under the action of water pressure, so as to completely disconnect thewater input passage 101 from theflow passages 122. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in
Figs. 3 and4 , thewater dividing member 120 includes a plurality ofwater dividing sheets 121 spaced apart in a circumferential direction of theanti-siphon chamber 103. Eachwater dividing sheet 121 extends along a radial direction of theanti-siphon chamber 103, and any two adjacent water dividing sheets define aflow passage 122 therebetween, so as to achieve division of the water flow and enhance the sprinkling effect. - Preferably, as illustrated in
Fig. 3 , an inner side edge of an end, towards thewater input passage 101, of eachwater dividing sheet 121 protrudes towards thewater input passage 101, with respect to an outer side edge. Therefore, when theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 is in the open position, theanti-siphon diaphragm 130 can abut against a protruding portion of thewater dividing sheet 121 to allow the water flow to enter theflow passage 122 smoothly. For example, an inner side edge of an upper end of eachwater dividing sheet 121 protrudes upwards with respect to its outer side edge. Herein, the inner side edge of thewater dividing sheet 121 refers to a side edge adjacent to the center of thewater dividing member 120, and the outer side edge of thewater dividing sheet 121 refers to a side edge away from the center of thewater dividing member 120. - As illustrated in
Figs. 2 and5 , a plurality ofspouts 104 are provided and spaced apart along a circumferential direction of thewater output passage 102, so as to improve a cleaning effect on the condenser. Optionally, as illustrated inFigs. 2 and3 , eachspout 104 has an outlet orientation perpendicular to an axial direction of thewater output passage 102, such that the water flow converging in thewater output passage 102 can be ejected from a radial direction of thewater output passage 102, and the sprinkling effect is better. - Advantageously, as illustrated in
Fig. 3 , eachspout 104 has a radial sectional area progressively increased in an effluent water flow direction, which facilitates the accelerated ejection of the water flow via thespout 104, so as to further enhance the sprinkling effect. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in
Figs. 2 and3 , thewater input passage 101, thewater output passage 102, and theanti-siphon chamber 103 are arranged coaxially, that is, a longitudinal central axis of thewater input passage 101, a longitudinal central axis of thewater output passage 102, and a longitudinal central axis of theanti-siphon chamber 103 coincide, thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process and facilitating the smooth flow of water. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in
Figs. 2 and3 , thebody 110 includes a sprinklingwater input section 111 and a sprinklingwater output section 112. The sprinklingwater input section 111 has thewater input passage 101. The sprinklingwater output section 112 has thewater output passage 102. The sprinklingwater input section 111 and the sprinklingwater output section 112 together define theanti-siphon chamber 103. Thespout 104 is provided in the sprinklingwater output section 112. In such a way, thesprinkler device 100 can be manufactured conveniently. Advantageously, the sprinklingwater input section 111 and the sprinklingwater output section 112 are connected by ultrasonic welding, thereby further simplifying the machining process. - As illustrated in

The sprinklingpipe 300 has a first end communicated with a water inlet of the washer-dryer and a second end connected with thewater input passage 101. Thus, water enters the sprinklingpipe 300 from the water inlet, then enters thesprinkler device 100 from thewater input passage 101, and finally is ejected from thewater output passage 102 and enters thecondenser 200, so as to clean the heat exchange chamber of thecondenser 200. - The
condenser assembly 10 according to embodiments of the present disclosure can prevent siphoning, lower the cost, simplify the manufacturing process, and achieve good sprinkling effect, by using theabove sprinkler device 100. - Preferably, as illustrated in
Fig. 1 , thecleaning inlet 201 is provided in an upper portion of the heat exchange chamber, while the cleaning outlet is provided in a lower portion of the heat exchange chamber, so as to guarantee the cleaning effect on thecondenser 200 and facilitate the smooth flow of water into and out of the heat exchange chamber. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in
Fig. 1 , thecondenser assembly 10 further includes a control valve (not illustrated) and acontroller 400. The control valve is disposed to the sprinklingpipe 300, and thecontroller 400 communicates with the control valve and realizes the connection or disconnection of the sprinklingpipe 300 by controlling the control valve. Hence, the sprinklingpipe 300 can be communicated when thecondenser 200 needs to be cleaned, and the sprinklingpipe 300 is disconnected when thecondenser 200 does not need cleaning, thereby making it more flexible and convenient. - As illustrated in
Figs. 1-6 , the washer-dryer 1, which does not form part of the present invention, includes adrum 20, thecondenser assembly 10 according to the embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure, and a circulating water pipe (not illustrated). - Specifically, the
drum 20 is provided with a circulating water inlet. The circulating water pipe has a first end connected with the circulating water inlet and a second end connected with the cleaning outlet. Thus, the water that has been used to clean thecondenser 200 enters thedrum 20 from the cleaning outlet through the circulating water pipe to do the laundry, thereby improving the water utilization rate. - The washer-dryer 1 can prevent siphoning, lower the cost, simplify the manufacturing process, and achieve good sprinkling effect, by using the
above condenser assembly 10. - As illustrated in
