- Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. The embodiments described herein with reference to drawings are explanatory, illustrative, and used to generally understand the present invention. The embodiments shall not be construed to limit the present invention.
- A
laundry treatment apparatus 100 according to embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to drawings. - With reference to
FIG. 1 toFIG. 4 , thelaundry treatment apparatus 100 according to embodiments of the present invention may include: acabinet 10, awashing system 20 and aheat pump system 30. - The
washing system 20 may be disposed in thecabinet 10, including awashing tub 21. Thecabinet 10 is formed with adrying gas inlet 201 and adrying gas outlet 202 therein, which are communicated with thewashing tub 21 respectively. - Here, the
drying gas inlet 201 is an inlet for the drying gas to enter into thewashing tub 21 to dry the clothing and thedrying gas outlet 202 is an outlet for the drying gas to flow out of thewashing tub 21 after drying the clothing. Typically, the gas passing through thedrying gas inlet 201 is generally dry gas at a high temperature and the gas flowing out from thedrying gas outlet 202 is generally wet gas at a high temperature. - The
heat pump system 30 is provided integrally and connected to thecabinet 10, and defines an entry communicated with thedrying gas outlet 202 and anexit 301 communicated with thedrying gas inlet 201. In other words, theheat pump system 30 is separated from thewashing system 20, and theheat pump system 30 and thewashing system 20 may be produced separately and then assembled. During the assembly, components of theheat pump system 30 may be preassembled together to form an integral system at first, and then arranged on thecabinet 10 as a whole. Moreover, the only need for assembling is to communicate thedrying gas inlet 201 with theexit 301 and to communicate thedrying gas outlet 202 with the entry. - In the related art, components of the heat pump system are disposed separately and some of the components are incorporated into the washing system. During the assembly, each component of the heat pump system needs to be assembled independently and the steps of the connecting operations are complicated. Moreover, the heat pump system cannot be used until the whole assembly is completed. In this case, the heat pump system may be unable to run due to some inappropriate operation during the assembly, so that abilities of assembling and disassembling, as well as repairing of the heat pump system are poor.
- However, in the
laundry treatment apparatus 100 according to embodiments of the present invention, theheat pump system 30 is provided integrally and all the components of theheat pump system 30 may have been preassembled before they are assembled onto thecabinet 10, and theheat pump system 30 can be assembled onto thecabinet 10 in one-time during the assembly by a few sequential operations, so that theheat pump system 30 is connected to thewashing system 20. These operations are simple and the rate of the general assembly line is fast, thus extremely reducing modification of the present production line and effect on task difficulty. In the meantime, theheat pump system 30 is independent from thewashing system 20, and may be checked for its operation properties independently before it is assembled onto thecabinet 10, so that assembly and disassembly, as well as maintenance of thelaundry treatment apparatus 100 are more convenient, resulting in a low production cost and a high manufacturability. - The
laundry treatment apparatus 100 according to embodiments of the present invention is configured as a kind of washing and drying all-in-one machine. Clothing may be washed by thewashing system 20 and dried by the drying system. Thelaundry treatment apparatus 100 is loaded with theheat pump system 30, thus improving the drying efficiency. Thewashing system 20 may be a system in the related art or an improved system and the structure of thewashing system 20 should be understood and easily achieved by the skilled person in the art, which is no more described in detail here. - The
heat pump system 30 will be described in detail as follows. Alternatively, as shown inFIG. 1 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, theheat pump system 30 may be disposed on an upper end of thecabinet 10. Thus, components of theheat pump system 30 may be integrated on the upper end of thecabinet 10 so as to better facilitate the assembly of theheat pump system 30 and may not affect the assembly of thewashing system 20 below, and therefore it is very convenient for assembly and disassembly. Alternatively, thewashing system 20 may be snap-fitted with thecabinet 10, and the operation of the connection is simple, accurate, quick and firm, so as to facilitate the assembly and disassembly. - Further, the upper end of the
cabinet 10 may be open and theheat pump system 30 may cover the upper end of thecabinet 10. In other words, thecabinet 10 may have an upper opening so as to better facilitate the assembly of thewashing system 20, and theheat pump system 30 may be used as a cover for thecabinet 10 so as to reduce the number of the components of the laundry treatment apparatus 110, thus improving the production efficiency and lower the cost. Meanwhile, without obstructing of a cover body, thewashing system 20 may be connected to theheat pump system 30 more easily. - According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the
heat pump system 30 may include: aheat pump base 31, anevaporator 32, acompressor 33, acondenser 34 and a throttle device. Theheat pump base 31 is disposed on the upper end of thecabinet 10. More specifically, theheat pump system 30 may be connected, such as snap-fitted, with thecabinet 10. Theevaporator 32, thecompressor 33, thecondenser 34 and the throttle device are disposed on theheat pump base 31 respectively and connected to each other sequentially to form a heat pump loop. Thecondenser 34 and thewashing tub 21 are connected to the evaporator 32 sequentially to form a drying gas loop. - Specifically, the
heat pump system 30 predominantly consists of theheat pump base 31, theevaporator 32, thecompressor 33, thecondenser 34 and the throttle device. Theheat pump base 31 is used to preassemble components such as theevaporator 32, thecondenser 34 and thecompressor 33, in a form of integration and may be directly supported on the top of thecabinet 10. Thecondenser 34 and thewashing tub 21 are connected to the evaporator 32 sequentially to form a drying gas loop, i.e., an outside loop. The drying gas may be recycled in the drying gas loop to perform the drying of the clothing. Theevaporator 32, thecompressor 33, thecondenser 34 and the throttle device are disposed on theheat pump base 31 respectively and connected to each other sequentially to form a heat pump loop, i.e., an internal circulation. - The
evaporator 32 may be used for cooling the recycled drying gas and condensing the moisture contained in the recycled drying gas to separate the moisture from the recycled drying gas. Thecondenser 34 may be used for heating the recycled drying gas after the separation of the moisture. The heated drying gas may be used for heating the clothing in thewashing tub 21 and taking away the moisture of the clothing. Thecompressor 33 may be used for driving the internal circulation of theheat pump system 30. - Furthermore, the
laundry treatment apparatus 100 may further include afan component 35 connected to thecabinet 10 and located between thecondenser 34 and thewashing tub 21 so as to drive the drying gas to flow. Thefan component 35 may provide power to gas for the external circulation and blow the heated drying gas more quickly to theinner tub 211 of the washing machine, so as to improve the drying efficiency. Specifically, during assembly, thefan component 35 may be connected to thecabinet 10 at first, and then butt joined to theheat pump base 31 to form an external circulation channel for the recycled drying gas. - Alternatively, a seal may be disposed at the drying
gas inlet 201 for making the drying gas flow in a one-way direction. Specifically, the drying gas heated in thecondenser 34 may flow into thewashing tub 21 through the seal, on the contrary, the drying gas cannot flow out from the dryinggas inlet 201, and thus the fluidity of the external circulation is good and the drying result is good. - As shown in
FIG. 3 , the dryinggas inlet 201 and the dryinggas outlet 202 are formed in two ends of thewashing system 20, respectively. Thus, the recycled drying gas may pass through theentire washing tub 21 more easily, thus ensuring that clothes at different positions may all be dried. Here, two ends of thewashing system 20 should be understood broadly, that is, it may be understood as two end parts of thewashing system 20, or it may also be understood as two positions close to the end parts, such as a position 5 cm, 10 cm or 15 cm away from the end parts. - As shown in
FIG. 3 andFIG. 4 , thewashing tub 21 may include anouter tub 212 and aninner tub 211 extended in a horizontal direction respectively, and theinner tub 211 is rotatably disposed in theouter tub 212. In other words, thelaundry treatment apparatus 100 according to embodiments of the present invention may be configured as a kind of drum washing and drying all-in-one machine, whose structure is properly designed, so as to facilitate the assembly and the disassembly as well as examination and repairing. - Alternatively, at least one of communications between the drying
gas inlet 201 and theexit 301 and between the dryinggas outlet 202 and the entry is carried out by ahose 37. In other words, the dryinggas inlet 201 may be communicated with theexit 301 via ahose 37, or the dryinggas outlet 202 may be communicated with the entry via ahose 37, or both the communications between the dryinggas inlet 201 and theexit 301 and between the dryinggas outlet 202 and the entry may be carried out byhoses 37, i.e. the dryinggas inlet 201 may be communicated with theexit 301 via ahose 37 and the dryinggas outlet 202 may be communicated with the entry via ahose 37. As shown inFIG. 1 toFIG. 4 , the dryinggas outlet 202 may be communicated with the entry via ahose 37. Thehose 37 has a good deformability and may be disposed at different positions based on needs. The operation of connection is easy and a good sealability is obtained. Alternatively, thehose 37 may be a rubber hose with a low cost, a good deformability and no corrosion. - In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in
FIG. 2 , thelaundry treatment apparatus 100 may further include afilter 36 disposed between the evaporator 32 and thewashing tub 21. Thefilter 36 may filter out soft flocks and large dust particles in the recycled drying gas to prevent them from aggregating inside theevaporator 32 and thecondenser 34, thus ensuring a normal operation of theheat pump system 30. Alternatively, thefilter 36 may be a filter mesh, e.g., a multi-layered filter mesh, so as to improve the filter result. Thefilter 36 may be detachably connected to theheat pump base 31 so as to wash thefilter 36. - The working principle of the
heat pump system 30 is described below. - Internal circulation of heat pump system 30: a low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant may absorb heat in the
evaporator 32 and may be vaporized to form low-pressure vapour. Subsequently, the low-pressure vapour is compressed into high-temperature high-pressure vapour in thecompressor 33 and the high-temperature high-pressure vapour may be condensed into high-pressure liquid in thecondenser 34 with heat release. The high-pressure liquid may be throttled in the throttle device to form low-temperature low-pressure liquid, which enters into theevaporator 32, so that a circulation is completed. - External circulation of heat pump system 30: low-temperature dry air is heated in the
condenser 34 and blown into theinner tub 211 via the seal by the fan, so as to obtain high-temperature dry air, which may heat the wet clothing in theinner tub 211, so that the moisture of the clothing may be vaporized to high-temperature wet air. The high-temperature wet air enters into theevaporator 32 via an air duct of theinner tub 211, thehose 37 and thefilter 36, and is cooled to remove the moisture, so as to become low-temperature air, which enters into thecondenser 34, so that a circulation is completed and the route of the circulation is indicated by arrows inFIG. 3 . - The
heat pump system 30 runs by electric power, so that it may obtain low-quality heat and transfer the heat to a high-temperature object, and at the same time, operations of heating and condensing during drying may be carried out, thus significantly reducing energy consumption. Moreover, the internal circulation and the external circulation both are self-closed, thus achieving effects of energy conservation and environmental protection. More importantly, after theheat pump system 30 is integrated in an overhead manner and preassembled as a component, the whole machine may be assembled on the general assembly line with only need of connecting to the external circulation pipe and electric components. This operation is simple and the rate of the general assembly line is hardly affected compared with that in the current state. Theheat pump system 30 is designed in an overhead manner so as to facilitate assembly and maintenance. Meanwhile, theheat pump system 30 may be used for drying, thus significantly improving energy efficiency of products (the energy efficiency of the heat pump drying belongs to Class A-40% of the EN standard) - Other constructions and operations of the
