如图2A所示,本公开一些实施例提供一种洗衣机100。该洗衣机100包括机箱2、洗衣筒4、滚筒5、挂钩6和减震器7。机箱2具有形成在该机箱2的前表面上的用于投放衣物的投入口201,图2A是观察者站在投入口201的正前方观察洗衣机100时得到的画面。洗衣筒4设置在机箱2中并容纳洗涤水,并且具有与投入口201连通的开放前表面。滚筒5以可旋转的方式设置在洗衣筒4中并容纳衣物。挂钩6的第一端与洗衣筒4连接,挂钩6的第二端与机箱2内侧壁的上部连接,从而将洗衣筒4与机箱2的上部连接。挂钩6可以是弹性元件,例如图2A所示的带有弹簧的挂钩,也可以是刚性元件,例如图2B所示的不带弹簧的挂钩。本公开实施例对此不作限定,只要挂钩6能起到将洗衣筒4与机箱2连接的作用即可。减震器7的第一端与洗衣筒4连接,减震器7的第二端与机箱2内侧壁的下部连接,从而将洗衣筒4与机箱2的下部连接。减震器7能够传递并减弱滚筒5在旋转的过程中产生的力和由该力所引起的震动(所述力和震动首先由滚筒5传递至洗衣筒4),从而减少由洗衣筒4传递到机箱2的震动。As shown in FIG. 2A, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a washing machine 100. The washing machine 100 includes a cabinet 2, a washing drum 4, a drum 5, a hook 6 and a shock absorber 7. The cabinet 2 has an input port 201 for putting laundry formed on the front surface of the cabinet 2. FIG. 2A is a screen obtained when an observer stands directly in front of the input port 201 and observes the washing machine 100. The washing tub 4 is provided in the cabinet 2 and contains washing water, and has an open front surface communicating with the input port 201. The drum 5 is provided in the washing tub 4 in a rotatable manner and contains laundry. The first end of the hook 6 is connected to the washing drum 4, and the second end of the hook 6 is connected to the upper part of the inner side wall of the cabinet 2, thereby connecting the washing drum 4 to the upper part of the cabinet 2. The hook 6 may be an elastic element, such as the hook with a spring shown in FIG. 2A, or a rigid element, such as the hook without a spring shown in FIG. 2B. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this, as long as the hook 6 can play the role of connecting the washing tub 4 with the chassis 2. The first end of the shock absorber 7 is connected with the washing drum 4, and the second end of the shock absorber 7 is connected with the lower part of the inner side wall of the case 2, thereby connecting the washing drum 4 with the lower part of the case 2. The shock absorber 7 can transmit and attenuate the force generated during the rotation of the drum 5 and the vibration caused by the force (the force and vibration are first transmitted from the drum 5 to the washing drum 4), thereby reducing the transmission from the washing drum 4 Vibration to chassis 2.
为了实现减震器7的第一端与洗衣筒4连接,洗衣机100还包括紧固件1。图3为图2A或图2B所示的洗衣机中右侧的减震器7和洗衣筒4连接的结构示意图。如图3所示,洗衣筒4包括至少两个安装条10,例如图2A和图2B显示的洗衣筒4的下方左右两侧各有两个安装条10。至少两个安装条10位于洗衣筒4的外圆周上,每个安装条10均具有通孔11,相对的两个安装条10上的通孔11是同轴的。减震器7的第一端包括具有橡胶套9的固定耳8,且固定耳8能够插入相对设置的两个安装条10之间。紧固件1能够穿过通孔11和橡胶套9,从而将减震器7的第一端与洗衣筒4连接。In order to connect the first end of the shock absorber 7 to the washing tub 4, the washing machine 100 further includes a fastener 1. Fig. 3 is a schematic view showing the connection between the shock absorber 7 and the washing drum 4 on the right side of the washing machine shown in Fig. 2A or Fig. 2B. As shown in Fig. 3, the washing drum 4 includes at least two mounting bars 10, for example, there are two mounting bars 10 on the lower left and right sides of the washing drum 4 shown in Figs. 2A and 2B. At least two mounting bars 10 are located on the outer circumference of the washing tub 4, and each mounting bar 10 has a through hole 11, and the through holes 11 on the two opposite mounting bars 10 are coaxial. The first end of the shock absorber 7 includes a fixing lug 8 with a rubber sleeve 9, and the fixing lug 8 can be inserted between two mounting strips 10 arranged oppositely. The fastener 1 can pass through the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9 to connect the first end of the shock absorber 7 with the washing tub 4.
为此,如图1所示,相关技术EP2348149A1公开了一种用于将减震器安装至洗衣机的紧固件01。紧固件01的一端具有法兰02、一端具有锥形部03。 紧固件01为中空的圆柱状,能够与安装条10上的通孔11和固定耳8内的橡胶套9形成紧密的配合。紧固件01还包括切口05,切口05设置在紧固件01的圆周上与弹性卡扣04相对的位置,且沿着紧固件01的轴向延伸,从而使得紧固件01在安装的过程中能够发生适当的弹性变形。在紧固件01处于正确的安装位置后,法兰02能够防止紧固件01沿轴向进一步移动,从而避免紧固件01从安装条10上脱落。在初始安装紧固件01时,锥形部03的结构便于紧固件01插入通孔11和橡胶套9中。紧固件01还包括弹性卡扣04,弹性卡扣04大致设置在锥形部03上,安装紧固件01的过程中,弹性卡扣04向紧固件01的内部缩回;当紧固件01处于正确的安装位置后,弹性卡扣04能够防止紧固件01沿轴向移动,从而避免紧固件01从安装条10上脱落。To this end, as shown in Fig. 1, related art EP2348149A1 discloses a fastener 01 for mounting a shock absorber to a washing machine. The fastener 01 has a flange 02 at one end and a tapered part 03 at one end. The fastener 01 has a hollow cylindrical shape and can form a close fit with the through hole 11 on the mounting bar 10 and the rubber sleeve 9 in the fixing ear 8. The fastener 01 also includes a notch 05. The notch 05 is provided on the circumference of the fastener 01 opposite to the elastic buckle 04, and extends along the axial direction of the fastener 01, so that the fastener 01 is installed Appropriate elastic deformation can occur in the process. After the fastener 01 is in the correct installation position, the flange 02 can prevent the fastener 01 from moving further in the axial direction, thereby preventing the fastener 01 from falling off the mounting strip 10. When the fastener 01 is initially installed, the structure of the tapered portion 03 facilitates the insertion of the fastener 01 into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9. The fastener 01 also includes an elastic buckle 04. The elastic buckle 04 is roughly arranged on the tapered portion 03. During the installation of the fastener 01, the elastic buckle 04 retracts toward the inside of the fastener 01; After the component 01 is in the correct installation position, the elastic buckle 04 can prevent the fastener 01 from moving in the axial direction, thereby preventing the fastener 01 from falling off the mounting strip 10.
为了使紧固件01在减震器7的径向上固定,从而防止额外的震动,紧固件01的直径稍微大于固定耳8中橡胶套9的直径。尽管紧固件01的直径仅略微大于橡胶套9的直径,但插入紧固件01时所需的力却大大增加。并且,为了确保紧固件01在通过专用工具进一步插入通孔11和橡胶套9之前具备足够的稳定性或正确的位置,必须手动安装至少三分之一长度的紧固件。因此,在将紧固件01插入通孔11和橡胶套9时,必须克服紧固件01与橡胶套9之间的摩擦力以及紧固件01穿过通孔11和插入橡胶套9时弹性卡扣04所施加的力,从而需要较大的力度。为了减少紧固件01穿过通孔11,特别是穿过橡胶套9所需的初始力,通常在紧固件01上涂抹润滑剂以减小摩擦。但是如果工人在手动插入紧固件01时未将紧固件01在橡胶套9中压入足够的深度,则由于紧固件01上涂抹了润滑剂,该紧固件01会从橡胶套9中滑出,甚至掉落,从而使工作流程中断,工作效率降低。In order to fix the fastener 01 in the radial direction of the shock absorber 7 so as to prevent additional vibration, the diameter of the fastener 01 is slightly larger than the diameter of the rubber sleeve 9 in the fixing ear 8. Although the diameter of the fastener 01 is only slightly larger than the diameter of the rubber sleeve 9, the force required to insert the fastener 01 is greatly increased. In addition, in order to ensure that the fastener 01 has sufficient stability or a correct position before being further inserted into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9 with a special tool, a fastener of at least one third of the length must be manually installed. Therefore, when the fastener 01 is inserted into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9, the friction between the fastener 01 and the rubber sleeve 9 must be overcome, and the elasticity of the fastener 01 through the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9 must be overcome. The force exerted by the buckle 04 thus requires greater force. In order to reduce the initial force required for the fastener 01 to pass through the through hole 11, especially the rubber sleeve 9, a lubricant is usually applied to the fastener 01 to reduce friction. However, if the worker does not press the fastener 01 into the rubber sleeve 9 to a sufficient depth when manually inserting the fastener 01, the fastener 01 will be removed from the rubber sleeve 9 due to the lubricant applied to the fastener 01. It slips out or even falls, which interrupts the work flow and reduces work efficiency.
本公开的一些实施例提供了一种紧固件1,参见图4A~4C和图5。该紧固件包括主体部分15,第一端13,第二端12和至少一个突起19。主体部分15为圆柱状,其直径与安装条10上的通孔11和固定耳8中的橡胶套9形成紧密的配合。第一端13为直径大于主体部分15的圆柱状,能够防止紧固件1沿轴向进一步移动,从而避免紧固件1从安装条10上脱落。第二端12为沿着远离主体部分15的方向直径渐缩的圆锥状,使得初始安装紧固件1时,紧固件1便于插入通孔11和橡胶套9中。至少一个突起19设置在第二端12的至少部分圆周上。在安装紧固件1的过程中,至少一个突起19能够充当楔子,楔入橡胶套9中,防止紧固件1在润滑的情况下滑动,从而防止工人在安装涂抹润滑剂的紧固件1时,如果未将紧固件1在橡胶套9中压入足够的深度而导致紧固件1从橡胶套9中滑出,甚至掉落。Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a fastener 1, see FIGS. 4A-4C and FIG. 5. The fastener includes a body portion 15, a first end 13, a second end 12 and at least one protrusion 19. The main body 15 is cylindrical, and its diameter forms a close fit with the through hole 11 on the mounting bar 10 and the rubber sleeve 9 in the fixing ear 8. The first end 13 has a cylindrical shape with a diameter larger than that of the main portion 15, which can prevent the fastener 1 from moving further in the axial direction, thereby preventing the fastener 1 from falling off the mounting bar 10. The second end 12 has a conical shape with a tapered diameter in a direction away from the main body portion 15, so that when the fastener 1 is initially installed, the fastener 1 is easily inserted into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9. At least one protrusion 19 is provided on at least part of the circumference of the second end 12. In the process of installing the fastener 1, at least one protrusion 19 can act as a wedge, wedging into the rubber sleeve 9, preventing the fastener 1 from sliding under lubrication, thereby preventing workers from installing the lubricant-applied fastener 1 At this time, if the fastener 1 is not pressed into the rubber sleeve 9 to a sufficient depth, the fastener 1 will slip out of the rubber sleeve 9 or even fall.
由于至少一个突起19位于首先伸入橡胶套9的第二端12上,因此即使将紧固件1最小限度地插入橡胶套9中,也可以实现紧固件1的稳定性,工人不必再将紧固件1手动插入至少三分之一的长度,第二端12的长度无需尽量长以减少插入紧固件1时所需的力,从而第二端12的长度可以大大缩短。Since at least one protrusion 19 is located on the second end 12 that first extends into the rubber sleeve 9, even if the fastener 1 is inserted into the rubber sleeve 9 to a minimum, the stability of the fastener 1 can be achieved, and workers do not need to The fastener 1 is manually inserted into at least one third of the length, and the length of the second end 12 does not need to be as long as possible to reduce the force required when inserting the fastener 1, so that the length of the second end 12 can be greatly shortened.
本公开的一些实施例中,如图4A所示,至少一个突起19是圆环形状,围绕第二端12的圆周设置;如图4B所示,至少一个突起19是扇环形状,围绕第二端12的部分圆周设置。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4A, at least one protrusion 19 is in the shape of a circular ring and is arranged around the circumference of the second end 12; as shown in FIG. 4B, at least one protrusion 19 is in the shape of a fan ring and surrounds the second end 12. Part of the end 12 is circumferentially arranged.
本公开的一些实施例中,至少一个突起19包括多个突起,如图4B所示,至少一个突起19包括第一突起191和第二突起192,第一突起191和第二突起192以扇环形状设置在第二端12的圆周上。以扇环形状设置多个突起,可以使每个突起的形状和尺寸有微小不同,这些突起对防止紧固件1从橡胶套9中滑出或掉落的效果更好。例如,第一突起191从第二端12的圆周上突起的高度可以略大于第二突起192从第二端12的圆周上突起的高度。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the at least one protrusion 19 includes a plurality of protrusions. As shown in FIG. 4B, the at least one protrusion 19 includes a first protrusion 191 and a second protrusion 192, and the first protrusion 191 and the second protrusion 192 are fan-shaped The shape is set on the circumference of the second end 12. Providing a plurality of protrusions in the shape of a fan ring can make the shape and size of each protrusion slightly different. These protrusions have a better effect on preventing the fastener 1 from slipping out or falling out of the rubber sleeve 9. For example, the height of the first protrusion 191 from the circumference of the second end 12 may be slightly greater than the height of the second protrusion 192 from the circumference of the second end 12.
第一突起191和第二突起192在第二端12的圆周上交错设置,即第一突起191在紧固件1的横截面上的正投影与第二突起192在紧固件1的横截面上的正投影不完全重叠,二者可以部分重叠或者完全不重叠。这可以保证多个突起19大致分布在第二端12的整个圆周上,基本上使得第二端12的圆周的任何部位与橡胶套9之间都具有足够的摩擦。The first protrusion 191 and the second protrusion 192 are staggered on the circumference of the second end 12, that is, the orthographic projection of the first protrusion 191 on the cross section of the fastener 1 and the second protrusion 192 on the cross section of the fastener 1 The orthographic projections on are not completely overlapped, and the two can be partially overlapped or not overlapped at all. This can ensure that the plurality of protrusions 19 are approximately distributed on the entire circumference of the second end 12, so that basically there is sufficient friction between any part of the circumference of the second end 12 and the rubber sleeve 9.
此外,第一突起191和第二突起192在第二端12的轴向上间隔设置,即,沿第二端12的轴向分布在第二端12不同的圆周上。但并不局限于此,第一突起191和第二突起192可以共同拼接为圆环形状。In addition, the first protrusions 191 and the second protrusions 192 are spaced apart in the axial direction of the second end 12, that is, distributed on different circumferences of the second end 12 along the axial direction of the second end 12. But it is not limited to this, and the first protrusion 191 and the second protrusion 192 may be joined together to form a circular ring shape.
虽然图4B显示了两个突起19,但并不局限于此,在本公开的一些实施例中,该至少一个突起可以包括一个突起,也可以包括三个或更多个突起。Although FIG. 4B shows two protrusions 19, it is not limited thereto. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the at least one protrusion may include one protrusion, or may include three or more protrusions.
本公开的一些实施例中,如图4C所示,至少一个突起19包括第三突起193和第四突起194,第三突起193以圆环形状设置在第二端12的圆周上,第四突起194以扇环形状设置在第二端12的圆周上,且第三突起193和第四突起19沿着第二端12的轴向间隔设置。虽然图4C显示了两个突起19,但并不局限于此,在本公开的一些实施例中,该至少一个突起可以包括三个或更多个突起,这些突起可以是圆环形状的或扇环形状的。在一些实施例中,圆环形状的突起和扇环形状的突起交替设置,这可以使得第二端12的一些部位与橡胶套9之间具有较大的摩擦。例如,为了克服紧固件1的重力,在将紧固件1通手动初始压入橡胶套9时,通常希望第二端12的上半个圆周与橡胶套9之间具有比其他部位更大的摩擦。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4C, the at least one protrusion 19 includes a third protrusion 193 and a fourth protrusion 194. The third protrusion 193 is provided on the circumference of the second end 12 in a ring shape, and the fourth protrusion 194 is arranged on the circumference of the second end 12 in the shape of a fan ring, and the third protrusion 193 and the fourth protrusion 19 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the second end 12. Although FIG. 4C shows two protrusions 19, it is not limited thereto. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the at least one protrusion may include three or more protrusions, and these protrusions may be ring-shaped or fan-shaped. Ring-shaped. In some embodiments, the ring-shaped protrusions and the fan ring-shaped protrusions are alternately arranged, which can cause greater friction between some parts of the second end 12 and the rubber sleeve 9. For example, in order to overcome the gravity of the fastener 1, when the fastener 1 is manually pressed into the rubber sleeve 9 by hand, it is usually desirable that the upper half of the circumference of the second end 12 and the rubber sleeve 9 are larger than other parts. Of friction.
此外,在如图1所示的相关技术中,在紧固件01上涂抹润滑剂的做法并不能保证紧固件01的表面总是有足够的润滑剂,紧固件01和橡胶套9之间仍旧可能产生摩擦,导致橡胶套9变形和损坏,并有可能断裂并从固定耳8中脱落,从而在洗衣机的运作过程中产生额外的振动和噪音。在一些情况下,洗衣筒4和减震器7的连接部位还可能由于橡胶套9的损坏而发生故障。In addition, in the related art shown in FIG. 1, the practice of applying lubricant on the fastener 01 does not guarantee that there is always sufficient lubricant on the surface of the fastener 01. The fastener 01 and the rubber sleeve 9 Friction may still occur between them, causing the rubber sleeve 9 to be deformed and damaged, and may break and fall off from the fixed ear 8, thereby generating additional vibration and noise during the operation of the washing machine. In some cases, the connection part of the washing tub 4 and the shock absorber 7 may also malfunction due to the damage of the rubber sleeve 9.
为了避免上述问题,紧固件1还包括第一凹槽20。如图5所示,第一凹槽20由至少一个突起19靠近主体部分15的侧面与第二端12邻近该侧面且靠近主体部分15的外侧面形成,即,第一凹槽20位于至少一个突起19与第二端12靠近主体部分15的区域之间。第一凹槽20可容纳足够量的润滑剂。初始安装紧固件时,向第一凹槽20中加注润滑剂;当紧固件穿过通孔11,插入橡胶套9时,储存在第一凹槽20中的润滑剂均匀地分布在紧固件1的主体部分15上,显著降低了紧固件1和橡胶套9之间的摩擦系数。因此,橡胶套不会变形,也因此不会撕裂。In order to avoid the above-mentioned problem, the fastener 1 further includes a first groove 20. As shown in FIG. 5, the first groove 20 is formed by at least one side surface of the protrusion 19 close to the main body portion 15 and the second end 12 adjacent to the side surface and close to the outer side surface of the main body portion 15. That is, the first groove 20 is located at at least one Between the protrusion 19 and the area where the second end 12 is close to the main body portion 15. The first groove 20 can contain a sufficient amount of lubricant. When the fastener is initially installed, lubricant is added to the first groove 20; when the fastener passes through the through hole 11 and is inserted into the rubber sleeve 9, the lubricant stored in the first groove 20 is evenly distributed On the main part 15 of the fastener 1, the friction coefficient between the fastener 1 and the rubber sleeve 9 is significantly reduced. Therefore, the rubber sleeve will not deform and therefore will not tear.
虽然图4A仅使用附图标记标示了一个第一凹槽20,但应该理解,在本公开的一些实施例中,该第一凹槽20可以与至少一个突起19一一对应。当然,第一凹槽20的数量也可以小于至少一个突起19的数量,即,一些突起19并未对应设置有第一凹槽20。Although FIG. 4A only uses a reference numeral to designate one first groove 20, it should be understood that, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first groove 20 may correspond to at least one protrusion 19 one-to-one. Of course, the number of the first grooves 20 may also be smaller than the number of at least one protrusion 19, that is, some protrusions 19 are not correspondingly provided with the first grooves 20.
为了避免紧固件1处于正确的安装位置后,滚筒5在旋转过程中产生的力和由该力引起的震动使得紧固件沿轴向移动,从而导致紧固件1从安装条10上脱落,紧固件1还包括弹性卡扣17,弹性卡扣17设置在主体部分15靠近第二端12的区域内。弹性卡扣17包括卡扣16和弹片18,安装紧固件的过程中,卡扣16向紧固件1的内部缩回;紧固件处于正确的安装位置后,卡扣16恢复至初始状态,与安装条10抵靠,从而防止紧固件1沿轴向移动。In order to avoid that the fastener 1 is in the correct installation position, the force generated during the rotation of the drum 5 and the vibration caused by the force cause the fastener to move in the axial direction, thereby causing the fastener 1 to fall off the mounting strip 10 The fastener 1 further includes an elastic buckle 17 which is arranged in the area of the main body 15 close to the second end 12. The elastic buckle 17 includes a buckle 16 and an elastic piece 18. During the installation of the fastener, the buckle 16 retracts toward the inside of the fastener 1; after the fastener is in the correct installation position, the buckle 16 returns to the initial state , And abut the mounting strip 10, thereby preventing the fastener 1 from moving in the axial direction.
为了进一步保证紧固件1表面有充足的润滑剂,紧固件1还包括第二凹槽21。如图5所示,第二凹槽21位于弹性卡扣17的外侧壁上,其可容纳足够量的润滑剂。当紧固件穿过通孔11,插入橡胶套9时,储存在第二凹槽21中的润滑剂均匀地分布在紧固件1的主体部分15上,显著降低了紧固件1和橡胶套9之间的摩擦系数。且第二凹槽21使得弹片18的厚度减小,有助于提高弹性卡扣17的弹性强度和塑性变形极限,防止弹性卡扣17发生塑性变形。因此,在将紧固件1确定插入通孔11和橡胶套9中之后,弹性卡扣17总是恢复至初始位置,并防止紧固件1沿轴向移动。In order to further ensure that there is sufficient lubricant on the surface of the fastener 1, the fastener 1 further includes a second groove 21. As shown in Fig. 5, the second groove 21 is located on the outer side wall of the elastic buckle 17, which can hold a sufficient amount of lubricant. When the fastener passes through the through hole 11 and inserts the rubber sleeve 9, the lubricant stored in the second groove 21 is evenly distributed on the main part 15 of the fastener 1, which significantly reduces the fastener 1 and rubber Coefficient of friction between sets of 9. In addition, the second groove 21 reduces the thickness of the elastic sheet 18, which helps to improve the elastic strength and plastic deformation limit of the elastic buckle 17 and prevent the elastic buckle 17 from plastic deformation. Therefore, after the fastener 1 is determined to be inserted into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9, the elastic buckle 17 always returns to the initial position and prevents the fastener 1 from moving in the axial direction.
在本公开的一些实施例中,如图5所示,紧固件1还包括切口22,切口22设置在紧固件1的圆周上与弹性卡扣17相对的位置,沿紧固件1的轴向延 伸,其能够使得紧固件1在安装的过程中发生适当的弹性变形,便于紧固件1插入通孔11和橡胶套9。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 5, the fastener 1 further includes a notch 22. The notch 22 is provided at a position opposite to the elastic buckle 17 on the circumference of the fastener 1, along the The axial extension can make the fastener 1 undergo proper elastic deformation during the installation process, and facilitate the insertion of the fastener 1 into the through hole 11 and the rubber sleeve 9.
在本公开的一些实施例中,如图4A~4C所示,第二端12远离主体部分15的一侧为平面,第二端12整体呈圆台形,不仅利于紧固件插入通孔11和橡胶套9中,还便于制造加工。此外,圆台的形状还可以避免第二端12的直径在沿着远离主体部分15的方向渐缩时过于急剧,使得第二端12在径向上具有足够大的外轮廓,从而在将紧固件1通过手动初始压入橡胶套9时即可以与橡胶套9形成一定的接触,保证紧固件1不从橡胶套9中滑出或掉落。In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C, the side of the second end 12 away from the main body 15 is flat, and the second end 12 is in the shape of a truncated cone as a whole, which not only facilitates the insertion of the fastener into the through hole 11 and The rubber sleeve 9 is also easy to manufacture and process. In addition, the shape of the truncated cone can also prevent the diameter of the second end 12 from being too sharply tapered in the direction away from the main portion 15, so that the second end 12 has a sufficiently large outer contour in the radial direction, so that the fastener 1 When the rubber sleeve 9 is manually pressed into the rubber sleeve 9 initially, a certain contact can be formed with the rubber sleeve 9 to ensure that the fastener 1 does not slip or fall out of the rubber sleeve 9.
安装紧固件1时,需尽量减少紧固件1插入橡胶套9中所需的力,如果第二端12过短,不利于紧固件1插入橡胶套9中;安装完成后,第二端12会从安装条10的通孔11中完全伸出,如果第二端12过长,会与洗衣机100内的其他元件发生干扰。因此,第二端12的轴向长度与主体部分15的轴向长度的比值大致位于1/6~1/5(例如,0.16~0.2)范围内。在一些实施例中,该比值选择为0.17、0.18、0.19或0.2。When installing the fastener 1, it is necessary to minimize the force required to insert the fastener 1 into the rubber sleeve 9. If the second end 12 is too short, it is not conducive for the fastener 1 to be inserted into the rubber sleeve 9; after the installation is completed, the second The end 12 will completely protrude from the through hole 11 of the mounting bar 10. If the second end 12 is too long, it will interfere with other components in the washing machine 100. Therefore, the ratio of the axial length of the second end 12 to the axial length of the main body portion 15 is approximately in the range of 1/6 to 1/5 (for example, 0.16 to 0.2). In some embodiments, the ratio is selected to be 0.17, 0.18, 0.19, or 0.2.
此外,在一些实施例中,还可以将第二端12的轴向长度设置为小于弹性卡扣17的轴向长度。这使得第二端12具有较小的轴向长度,在将紧固件1通过手动初始压入橡胶套9时,除第二端12进入橡胶套9外,还可以使弹性卡扣17的至少一部分进入橡胶套9。由于弹性卡扣17具有恢复弹性变形的回复力,因此弹性卡扣17可以抵靠在橡胶套9的内侧壁上并向橡胶套9施加一定的力,从而进一步避免紧固件1从橡胶套9中滑出或掉落。In addition, in some embodiments, the axial length of the second end 12 can also be set to be smaller than the axial length of the elastic buckle 17. This allows the second end 12 to have a smaller axial length. When the fastener 1 is initially manually pressed into the rubber sleeve 9, in addition to the second end 12 entering the rubber sleeve 9, at least the elastic buckle 17 Part of it goes into the rubber sleeve 9. Since the elastic buckle 17 has a restoring force to restore the elastic deformation, the elastic buckle 17 can abut against the inner side wall of the rubber sleeve 9 and apply a certain force to the rubber sleeve 9 to further prevent the fastener 1 from being removed from the rubber sleeve 9 Sliding out or falling in the middle.
