然而,这种内桶底壁无孔的洗衣机也具有一个缺点就是,由于内桶下部不设置脱水排水孔,脱水时水不能及时排出,脱水启动慢,脱水启动振动大,能耗较高,脱水后的衣物含水率较高。

具体实施方式
下面结合附图对本发明的一种洗衣机排水结构进行详细描述:
如图1所示,一种洗衣机排水结构,用于洗涤、漂洗时内外桶之间无水的洗衣机,所述的排水结构包括封水盖8、杠杆结构和驱动装置,杠杆结构的阻力臂端连接封水盖8,动力臂端设置用于驱动杠杆结构工作的驱动装置,所述内桶1的底壁设置排水口,所述的杠杆结构在驱动装置的驱动下带动封水盖8在洗涤和漂洗过程中关闭排水口,在排水时打开排水口。
本发明的内桶1的只在侧壁的上部设置一周脱水排水孔,脱水排水孔设置在洗衣机内桶最大进水量以上的位置,在脱水时用于将脱出的水从此排出,而内桶1侧壁的其它部位则是封闭设计的,不设置任何通孔结构。同时,内桶1的底壁上除了设置一个孔径较大的排水口外,所述的排水口在洗涤和漂洗过程中关闭,在排水时打开排水口,而内桶底壁的其它部位则是封闭设计的。
本发明的排水结构适用于洗涤、漂洗时内外桶之间无水的洗衣机,内桶1的底壁上设置排水口,排水结构的封水盖8在洗涤或者漂洗的过程中在杠杆结构的作用下关闭排水口关闭排水口,封水盖8在排水时在杠杆结构的作用下打开排水口,而杠杆结构在驱动装置的驱动作用下实现杠杆运动。因此,本发明的排水结构利用杠杆结构的阻力臂端的上升、下降带动封水盖8关闭、打开排水口,实现洗衣机的排水,而且结构简单,安装方便,具有良好的市场推广价值。
作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述的杠杆结构包括杠杆3和杠杆支架6,杠杆支架6固定在内桶1的底壁外侧,杠杆3的中部可转动的安装在杠杆支架6上,所述的封水盖8连接杠杆3的阻力臂端,所述的驱动装置设置在杠杆3的动力臂端,驱动装置驱动杠杆3绕着杠杆支架6转动。
本发明的杠杆3的阻力臂端连接封水盖8,动力臂端与驱动装置相连接,又本发明的杠杆结构设置在内桶1的底壁外侧,因此,动力臂端在驱动装置的驱动下向上运动,阻力臂 端则带动封水盖8向下运动,排水口打开,动力臂端在驱动装置的驱动下向下运动,阻力臂端则带动封水盖8向上运动,排水口关闭。因此,本发明的排水结构采用杠杆结构,排水口的打开或者关闭均受到杠杆的作用,更加可靠。
作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述封水盖8与杠杆结构的阻力臂端通过铰链连接,封水盖8可绕杠杆结构的阻力臂端的中心线自由转动,封水盖8与内桶底壁之间具有0~15°活动夹角,优选地,所述的活动夹角为5°。由于杠杆结构的运动轨迹是直线,所以当封水盖8盖在排水口上时,有可能会一部分先接触而另一部分还未接触,会导致排水口盖的不严而漏水,将排水盖8采用铰接的方式连接在杠杆结构上,这样可使得封水盖8具有一定的活动角度,更加便于封水盖8盖住排水口。
作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述的内桶1的排水口外围设置挡水筋7,挡水筋的作用主要是防止排水口排水时水流对杠杆结构进行冲刷造成杠杆结构不稳定,甚至造成损坏。进一步地,挡水筋7上对应杠杆3处设置豁口,这样可防止挡水筋7妨碍杠杆3正常上升、下降,使得封水盖8的关闭、开启更加顺利。由于挡水筋7只是为了减少流向杠杆结构处的水流,优选地,所述的挡水筋7设置在排水口靠近杠杆结构的一侧。
如何实现本发明的杠杆结构进行杠杆运动,进而带动封水盖8开启、关闭是本发明的关键点。因此,本发明采用了如下的技术方案来驱动杠杆结构进行杠杆运动:
如图2所示,本发明所述的驱动装置包括凸轮12,凸轮12可转动的安装在内桶1的底壁外侧,凸轮12的轮廓曲面10与杠杆3的动力臂端相接触,所述的轮廓曲面10随着凸轮12转动下压/松开杠杆3的动力臂实现杠杆结构的杠杆运动。
因此,本发明通过凸轮12在转动过程中,通过轮廓曲面10的不同曲面与杠杆3的动力臂端接触,当曲率半径大的面与杠杆3的动力臂端接触,凸轮12下压杠杆3的动力臂,杠杆3的动力臂端受压向上运动,杠杆3的阻力臂端向下运动带动封水盖8打开排水口;当曲率半径小的面与与杠杆3的动力臂端接触,凸轮12松开杠杆3的动力臂,杠杆3的动力臂端向下回位,杠杆3的阻力臂端向上运动带动封水盖8关闭排水口。
本发明的轮廓曲面10包括至少包括第一曲面、第二曲面和第三曲面,第一曲面的的曲率半径逐渐增大,第二曲面的曲率半径等于第一曲面的曲率半径的最大值,第三曲面的曲率半径略小于第二曲面的曲率半径。因此,本发明的封水盖8关闭时,轮廓曲面10的第一曲面与杠杆3的动力臂端接触,轮廓曲面10随着凸轮12的转动过程中,第一曲面、第二曲面分别与杠杆3的动力臂端接触,当达到曲率半径最大的第二曲面后继续转动至第三曲面后停止,第三曲面下压杠杆3的动力臂端,封水盖8打开,这样主要是当凸轮12停止转 动后,第三曲面的曲率半径略小于第二曲面的曲率半径可防止凸轮3回转,确保封水盖8打开状态更加的可靠。
本发明的杠杆3的动力臂端的端部设置一框状结构5,框状结构5内部可转动的安装有滑轮4,滑轮4与凸轮12的轮廓曲面10接触,这样可减少凸轮12和杠杆3的动力臂端的接触摩擦,过渡更加的平稳,不会产生噪音。
本发明的封水盖8打开排水口,主要是靠凸轮12下压杠杆3动力臂端实现,而封水盖8关闭排水口,凸轮12松开杠杆3的动力臂端,杠杆3动力臂端向下回位实现,因此,确保杠杆3的动力臂端在凸轮12松开时回位是确保封水盖8关闭排水口的关键所在。因此,作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述杠杆结构的杠杆3和支架6之间设置用于杠杆3在轮廓曲面10松开时复位的扭簧2,所述的扭簧2在轮廓曲面10下压杠杆3的动力臂时发生形变,在轮廓曲面10松开杠杆3的动力臂时恢复形变。
本发明的扭簧10在凸轮12下压杠杆3时发生形变,具有一定的弹性力,在凸轮12松开杠杆3时,扭簧10为了恢复形变,弹性力施加在杠杆3上使其动力臂端下降。本发明通过扭簧10即可实现杠杆3的复位,结构简单,安装方便,且可靠有效。
上述技术方案解决了杠杆3的驱动问题,但是凸轮12的转动如何实现是实现杠杆3进行杠杆运动的关键,具体的,采用以下技术方案:
如图3、图4、图5及图6所示,本发明所述的洗衣机包括同轴安装在外桶13内部的内桶1。
本发明所述的驱动装置还包括安装在外桶13的底壁上的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17,所述的凸轮12上设置第一拨杆9和第二拨杆11;
所述的内桶1正向转动时,第一挡杆组件16阻挡第一拨杆9使凸轮12反向转动,轮廓曲面10下压杠杆结构,封水盖8打开排水口,内桶1反向转动时,第二挡杆组件17阻挡第二拨杆11使凸轮12正向转动,轮廓曲面10松开杠杆结构,封水盖8关闭排水口。
本发明所述的正向转动或者反向转动并不限定内桶1朝着某一固定的方向转动,只是限定了内桶1在排水时需要进行双向的旋转,例如当顺时针转动为正方向时,则逆时针转动为反方向转动,反之亦然,本发明的附图中以内桶1顺时针转动为正方向,内桶1逆时针转动为反方向。本发明的内桶1进行双向转动,以实现在排水前打开封水盖8,在排水完成后关闭封水盖8。
作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17分别包括可上下运动的挡杆23。所述的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23需要分别单 独作用于第一拨杆9和第二拨杆11,如果作用对象错误,则不能实现凸轮12的转动、复位。
因此,所述的第一挡杆组件16设置在第二挡杆组件17的外侧,第一拨杆9的长度大于第二拨杆11的长度,使得第一挡杆组件16的挡杆23向上运动时只阻挡第一拨杆9。
这样将第一挡杆组件16设置在第二拨杆11的自由端外侧,第一挡杆组件16向上运动时不可能阻挡到第二拨杆11,而只能阻挡第一拨杆9,第一拨杆9在其阻挡下带动凸轮12反向转动,下压杠杆3的动力臂端,动力臂端上升,阻力臂端下降,封水盖8打开排水口。
本发明所述的第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23的长度小于第一挡杆组件16的挡杆23的长度,第二拨杆11与外桶13的底壁之间的距离小于第一拨杆9与外桶13的底壁之间的距离,使得第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23向上运动时只阻挡第二拨杆11。
这样,第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23向上运动的高度只能阻挡到第二拨杆11而阻挡不到第一拨杆9,第二拨杆11在其阻挡下带动凸轮12正向转动,松开杠杆3的动力臂端,动力臂端下降,阻力臂端上升,封水盖8关闭排水口。
本发明所述的第一拨杆9和第二拨杆11的长度满足:第一拨杆9在第一挡杆组件16阻挡下带动凸轮12转动到轮廓曲面10的第三曲面与杠杆3的动力臂端接触后与其分离,第二拨杆11在第二挡杆组件17阻挡下带动凸轮12转动到轮廓曲面10的第一曲面与杠杆3的动力臂端接触后与其分离。
如图7、图8所示,本发明所述的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17均包括挡杆23、螺母24、密封套25、固定盘26和压缩弹簧27,所述的挡杆23穿过外桶13的底壁,本发明的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23可上下运动,以阻挡第一拨杆9和第二拨杆11。挡杆23的上部位于内桶1与外桶13之间,下部位于外桶13的底壁外部,所述的密封套25套在挡杆23的上部且能够随着挡杆23的运动伸缩,密封套25一端通过螺母24固定在挡杆23上,另一端通过固定盘26固定在外桶13的底壁上并与其密封,以确保第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17与外桶13之间密封,防止漏水。所述的压缩弹簧27设置在挡杆23的下部,所述的挡杆23的下端端部设置用于阻挡压缩弹簧27的一端的阻挡螺母29,所述的压缩弹簧27设置在外桶13的底壁与阻挡螺母29之间。进一步地,所述的外桶13上安装有固定座28,所述的挡杆23穿过固定座28,压缩弹簧27设置在固定座28与阻挡螺母29之间,这样可防止压缩弹簧27受压时施力于外桶13上,造成外桶13频繁受压造成损坏。
由于本发明的杠杆结构、凸轮12安装在内桶1和外桶13之间,因此为了提供其足够的安装空间,所述的外桶13的底壁设置凹槽结构15,所述的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆 组件17安装在凹槽结构15上,所述的凹槽结构15上设置外桶排水口14。
为了实现本发明的第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23上下运动,作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,如图4、图5及图6所示,所述的驱动装置还包括压板20、支架21、拉杆22和牵引电机19,支架21固定在外桶13的底壁外侧,拉杆22可转动的安装在支架21上,拉杆22的一端连接牵引电机19,另一端与压板20固定连接,压板20的两端分别压在第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17上;
所述的拉杆22和压板20在牵引电机19的牵引下绕着支架21转动,压板20的一端上升,压动第一挡杆组件16向上运动,压板20的另一端下降,第二挡杆组件17向下运动。
作为本发明的一种优选实施方式,所述的牵引电机19通过拉绳18与拉杆22相连接。
实施例一
如图2及图3所示,本实施例与上述实施方式的区别仅在于,提供了一种适用于本发明洗衣机排水结构的一种凸轮结构12,凸轮结构12整体呈扇形结构,凸轮结构12上设置轮廓曲面10,由于本发明的凸轮12安装在洗衣机的内桶1的底壁上,就凸轮12安装后的位置而言,所以轮廓曲面设置在凸轮12的上表面。
本实施例所述的凸轮12上设置第一拨杆9和第二拨杆12,第一拨杆9和第二拨杆12具有一定弧度设置,弧度的中心位于第一挡杆组件16和第二挡杆组件17侧。这样,当第一挡杆组件16、第二挡杆组件17阻挡第一拨杆9、第二拨杆12,可使第一挡杆组件16、第二挡杆组件17沿着第一拨杆9、第二拨杆12的圆弧结构滑出,使得两者之间的作用更加的均衡,过渡更加平稳,防止凸轮12转动突变。
实施例二
如图12及图13所示,本实施例与上述实施方式的区别仅在于,又提供了一种适用于本发明洗衣机排水结构的一种凸轮结构12,凸轮结构12整体呈圆柱形,凸轮结构12上设置轮廓曲面10,由于本发明的凸轮12安装在洗衣机的内桶1的底壁上,就凸轮12安装后的位置而言,所以轮廓曲面10设置在凸轮12的上表面。
本实施例所述的凸轮12上设置第一拨杆9和第二拨杆12。
本实施例所述的凸轮12上还设置第一限位部34和第二限位部35,所述的第一限位部34用于限定凸轮12转动到封水盖8打开排水口位置后停止,所述的第二限位部35用于限定凸轮12转动到封水盖8关闭排水口位置后停止。
因此,由于第一限位部34和第二限位部35对凸轮12的转动限位作用,使得凸轮12不可能整个圆环面都能与杠杆结构接触,因此,本实施例的轮廓曲面10只设置在第一限位部34和第二限位部35之间的凸轮12之间的上表面。
本实施例的轮廓曲面10至少包括基曲面36、滑动曲面37和止回曲面38,基曲面36 的竖直行程高度最低,滑动曲面37的竖直行程高度逐渐变大,而止回曲面38的竖直行程沿着滑动曲面37的竖直行程的最大值逐渐减小,但是减小的幅度不大。这样,主要是由本发明的排水结构的开启和关闭的状态所决定的,当基曲面36与杠杆结构接触时,封水盖8盖在排水口上,此时,本发明的排水结构处于关闭状态;当凸轮12转动时杠杆结构沿着滑动曲面37滑动直至达到行程最大位置处,封水盖8打开排水口,此时本发明的排水结构处于开启状态,而止回曲面38的竖直行程略小于滑动曲面37的最大行程,可使杠杆结构保持在受压状态,进而使得本发明的排水结构保持开启状态;而要想再次关闭本发明的排水结构,只需要使凸轮12反向转动即可。
进而,本发明的第一限位部34和第二限位部35是用于限制凸轮12的转动,当凸轮转动到基曲面36或者止回曲面38位置后,需要凸轮12停止转动,而此时凸轮12可能在惯性的作用下继续转动,这样可能会造成封水盖8不能正常的开启或者盖上,或者会对凸轮12造成损坏。
本实施例的第一限位部34和第二限位部35均为杆状结构,第一限位部34和第二限位部35均小于第一拨杆9和第二拨杆12,从而不会影响到第一拨杆9和第二拨杆12与挡杆组件接触。
进一步地,本实施例第一限位部34和第二限位部35的长度比凸轮12最外圈与支架6之间的距离,这样,当凸轮12转到指定位置后,第一限位部34和第二限位部35便会受到支架6的阻挡作用而使其停止下来。
实施例三
如图9、图10及图11所示,本实施例以实施例2为例对本发明的排水结构的工作原理进行详细的描述。如图9所示,图中实线箭头Ⅴ和虚线箭头Ⅵ均为内桶1的转动方向,实线箭头Ⅴ为排水结构关闭所需要的内桶1转动的方向,虚线箭头Ⅵ排水结构打开所需要的内桶1转动的方向。图中圆虚线Ⅰ为第一挡杆组件16相对于内桶1的运动轨迹,圆虚线Ⅱ为第二挡杆组件17相对于内桶1的运动轨迹。圆虚线Ⅲ为第一拨杆9相对于内桶1的运动轨迹,圆虚线Ⅳ为第二拨杆11相对于内桶1的运动轨迹。
如图9及图10所示,本发明的排水结构开启包括以下过程:
1)内桶1沿着图9中虚线箭头Ⅵ的方向转动。
2)牵引电机19启动。
3)牵引电机19拉动拉杆22转动,拉杆22带动压板20绕着支架21转动,压板20压着第一挡杆组件16的一端上升,第一挡杆组件16在压板20的压力下向上运动。
4)第一挡杆组件16的挡杆23上升至能够阻挡凸轮12的第一拨杆9的位置后,牵引电机19停止牵引。
5)凸轮12随着内桶1沿着图9中虚线箭头Ⅵ的方向转动,当运动至第一挡杆组件16 处,第一拨杆9受到第一挡杆组件16的阻挡而使凸轮12在随着内桶1转动的同时自转。
6)凸轮12转动带动轮廓曲面10运动,所述的杠杆3的动力臂端相对于轮廓曲面10从基曲面36运动到滑动曲面37最后到达止回曲面38,凸轮12的第二限位部35卡在杠杆支架6上而使凸轮12停止,与此同时,第一拨杆9沿着圆虚线Ⅲ转动,第一拨杆9转出圆虚线Ⅲ与圆虚线Ⅰ的交叉区域,第一拨杆9与第一挡杆组件16分离。
7)杠杆3的动力臂端受到轮廓曲面10的止回曲面38的压力而上升,进而带动杠杆3的阻力臂端下降,杠杆3的阻力臂端带动封水盖8下降,排水口打开,实现了本发明的排水装置的排水。
如图9及图11所示,本发明的排水结构关闭包括以下过程:
1)内桶1沿着图9中实线箭头Ⅴ的方向转动。
2)牵引电机19回位。
3)拉杆22在复位扭簧的带动下回位,拉杆22带动压板20绕着支架21回转,压板20压着第二挡杆组件17的一端上升,第二挡杆组件17在压板20的压力下向上运动。
4)第二挡杆组件17的挡杆23上升至能够阻挡凸轮12的第二拨杆11的位置后,牵引电机19回复到初始位置。
5)凸轮12随着内桶1沿着图9中实线箭头Ⅴ的方向转动,当运动至第二挡杆组件17处,第二拨杆11受到第二挡杆组件17的阻挡而使凸轮12在随着内桶1转动的同时反向自转。
6)凸轮12反向转动带动轮廓曲面10运动,所述的杠杆3的动力臂端相对于轮廓曲面10从止回曲面38运动到滑动曲面37最后返回到基曲面36,凸轮12的第一限位部34卡在杠杆支架6上而使凸轮12停止,与此同时,第二拨杆11沿着圆虚线Ⅳ转动,第二拨杆11转出圆虚线Ⅳ与圆虚线Ⅱ的交叉区域,第二拨杆11与第一挡杆组件17分离。
7)轮廓曲面10的基曲面36返回至杠杆3的动力臂端下部,杠杆3的动力臂端不再受压,杠杆3的阻力臂端在扭簧2的弹性作用下回位,杠杆3的阻力臂端带动封水盖8上升关闭排水口,实现了本发明的排水装置的排水。
以上所述仅是本发明的较佳实施例而已,并非对本发明作任何形式上的限制,虽然本发明已以较佳实施例揭露如上,然而并非用以限定本发明,任何熟悉本专利的技术人员在不脱离本发明技术方案范围内,当可利用上述提示的技术内容作出些许更动或修饰为等同变化的等效实施例,但凡是未脱离本发明技术方案的内容,依据本发明的技术实质对以上实施例所作的任何简单修改、等同变化与修饰,均仍属于本发明方案的范围内。
