一种添加剂自动投放装置及洗衣机 技术领域
本发明涉及一种投放添加剂的投放装置，尤其涉及一种可应用于洗衣机的、可自动投放添加剂的外置投放装置，还涉及一种可与上述添加剂投放装置相匹配工作的洗衣机。
背景技术
现有洗衣机常用的添加剂投放方式，包括如下两种：
一种是用户直接将添加剂投放到洗衣机的桶内，这种投放方式由于是用户直接手动投放，使得添加剂的投放量多少不方便控制、容易产生添加剂投放量过多或过少的情况；同时，由于添加剂是直接投放至桶内，使得未经稀释的添加剂会直接与桶内的衣物相接触，容易造成衣物褪色等问题的产生。
另一种是在洗衣机上设置一投放盒，用户提前将添加剂预投到洗衣机的投放盒内，利用洗衣机进水将添加剂冲入洗衣机桶中；由于现有的储液盒结构为敞开式结构，在其内投放添加剂后会与外部气体、洗衣机运行中飞溅的水流相接触，会导致添加剂被污染而变质等问题的产生；同时，由于储液盒一般是可抽拉的安装于洗衣机上的，其在清洗时需要进行拆卸，这就造成了储液盒清洗不便的问题。
当然，还有一种洗衣机上安装有可自动投放添加剂的投放结构，使得添加剂可利用洗衣机的工作程序进行自动的、定量的投放；但是，由于成本限制，一般都是在高端机型上才会设置自动投放结构，使得用户购买低端机型后无法将其升级、还需再次购买新的洗衣机。
因此，如何设置一种适配于不同型号洗衣机的、独立设置并可便捷装配使用的添加剂自动投放装置就成了急需解决的技术问题。
鉴于以上问题，特提出本发明。

具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图，对实施例中的缺陷管理模式进行详细说明。
如图1至图8所示，本实施例中介绍了一种添加剂投放装置，所述投放装置100包括：独立部件构成的壳体1。壳体1的外壁上具有至少一个插接槽3，各插接槽3的开口构成朝向壳体1外部设置的抽拉口。各插接槽3中分别安装有一个适配的、可自抽拉口向外抽出、向内推入的储液盒2，储液盒2构成供添加剂存储的密封容腔；优选的，储液盒2为墨盒式密封容器，其直接构成密封容腔，使得墨盒式储液盒2为存储添加剂的独立容器；上述的墨盒式密封容器为类似打印机墨盒形态的容器。投放装置100的壳体1内设置有供水水路5，供水水路5可供水流流经。投放装置的壳体1内还安装有抽吸装置，抽吸装置的进口与储液盒2相连通、出口与供水水路5相连通，用于将储液盒2内存储的添加剂抽入供水水路5中，随流经供水水路5的水流进行投放。
通过上述设置，将整个投放装置集成为一模块，使其可独立的置于洗衣机外部，实现了添加剂自动投放装置模块化设置、单独销售的效果。同时，通过将上述投放装置经管路与洗 衣机相连，以实现外部独立设置的添加剂自动投放装置可与不同型号、类别的洗衣机均相适配的目的，进而达到了现有洗衣机利用本申请所述的添加剂自动投放装置进行添加剂自动投放功能的扩展，使得洗衣机的功能更丰富、更多元化。还有，通过上述设置，使得投放装置的储液盒采用墨盒式的、独立密封设计，使得其可对添加剂进行封闭存储，不仅可对其进行独立抽拉更替，还可使添加剂存储在密封环境中、避免其与外部相接触被污染。
本实施例中，所述投放装置100的壳体1的上侧壁上具有多个插接槽3，各插接槽3的上端敞口构成抽拉口19，储液盒2由抽拉口19对应插入插接槽3、或抽出插接槽3。各插接槽3内分别一一对应的安装有可上下插拔的、呈竖直延伸的墨盒式储液盒2。墨盒式储液盒2插入插接槽3的一端设有出液口，出液口经抽吸装置接入供水水路5中。
本实施例中，投放装置的壳体1内部中空，中空区域构成安装腔6，供水水路5和抽吸装置均处于壳体1内部的安装腔6中。本实施例中，壳体1上安装有穿入安装腔的进水接头7和出水接头8，供水水路5的两端分别与进水接头7和出水接头8相连，使得供水水路5的进水接头7可经管路与供水水源相连、出水接头8经管路与洗衣机进水口相连，令供水水路5内可流经由进水接头7向出水接头8方向的水流。
优选的，本实施例中，进水接头7和出水接头8裸露于壳体1外部的一端相同设置，以使得进水接头7和出水接头8可分别与同一类别的管路接头进行对应插接，提升投放装置100的通用适配性；同时，进一步优选的，本实施例中，进水接头7和出水接头8裸露于壳体1外部的一端均与洗衣机进水管的进水端相适配，以使得投放装置100的出水接头8可以直接使用洗衣机进水管进行安装、而进水接头7可以使用两端均为相同型号接头的另一管路与水龙头等其他供水水源相连，实现了进水接头7和出水接头8分别连接不同类型的管路、防止了进水和出水管路连接错误情况的发生。
如图1至图7所示，本实施例中，所述的抽吸装置包括抽吸泵4，抽吸泵4安装于壳体1内部的安装腔6中；优选的，抽吸泵4处于壳体1内部、并固定安装于壳体1上。本实施例中，抽吸泵4的进口与墨盒式储液盒2的出液口相连通、出口与供水水路5相连通，以在抽吸泵4工作后为流体提供动力、驱动墨盒式储液盒2内存储的添加剂流向供水水路5。优选的，本实施例中，抽吸泵4的进口和出口的轴向平行设置，且同一抽吸泵4的进口和出口与储液盒2的抽拉方向相平行、或垂直设置，以便于抽吸泵4的装配、提升添加剂的投放顺畅性。
当然，本发明实施例中，为了实现对添加剂的投放，所设的抽吸装置还可以为其他可提 供液体驱动力的驱动装置，例如：利用流经水流产生负压吸力的文丘里管等等(未在附图中注明)。
本实施例中，为了保证液体的流向、防止水路中的液体向储液盒2倒流，可以进行如下设置：抽吸泵4设置为仅可自进口向出口方向单向导通的单向抽吸泵；当然，为了实现上述目的，还可以在供水水路、储液盒2上设置单向阀，以保证整个水路中的液体单向流动、防止倒流情况发生。
而本实施例中，为了实现防倒流，将供水水路设置于抽吸泵4的上方，使得储液盒2流入抽吸泵4中的添加剂在重力作用下。
如图1至图7所示，本实施例中，投放装置100的壳体1的顶壁上排布有多个插接槽3，各插接槽3均向上敞口、敞口构成供储液盒2插拔的抽拉口19；插接槽3轴线竖直延伸，插入插接槽3的储液盒2沿上下竖直方向延伸。

本实施例中，安装腔6内设有沿壳体1左右方向水平延伸的、处于中部高度的一供水水路5，供水水路5下方沿壳体1左右方向间隔排布有多个抽吸泵4，壳体1内部的安装腔6中设有多个左右间隔排布的抽吸泵4，各抽吸泵4的进水口分别经一一相对应的抽液管路与各插接槽3上所设的导液连接部9相一一对应相连，各抽吸泵4的出水口分别经管路与同一供水水路5相连。
本实施例中，壳体1底壁的左右两端分别设有向下穿出的进水接头7和出水接头8，供水水路5的两端分别经向下延伸的管路与进水接头7和出水接头8处于安装腔6内部的一端相连通，进水接头7和出水接头8处于壳体1外部的另一端裸露设置、供其与相应管路相插接。
本实施例中，为了保证插入插接槽内的储液盒内的添加剂不会溢出，进行如下设置：插接槽3与储液盒2相接处设有至少一圈密封圈，以保证插接槽3开口处的密封性，有效储液盒2内的添加剂自插接槽3开口溢出情况的发生。
如图1至图8所示，本实施例中，供水水路5包括，主路23，主路23的进水端与进水 接头7处于安装腔6内部的一端相连通、出水端与出水接头8处于安装腔6内部的一端相连通；主路23上间隔设有多个抽吸口，各抽吸口分别与以抽吸泵4的出口对应相连通；抽吸泵4的进口分别经相应的抽液管路与一对应插接槽3内所设的导液连接部9相连通，各导液连接部9分别与相应的容器连接部10相连通，使得抽吸泵4的进口与插入相应插接槽3内的储液盒2相连通，以实现不同储液盒2内存储的、不同类别的添加剂分别可控的向供水水路5内进行投放的效果。
优选的，本实施例中，主路23的各抽吸口分别经相应的支路与抽吸泵4的出口相连通。
通过上述设置，使得各投放单元的投放出口抽出的添加剂汇入同一水路中，以实现不同添加剂分别投放的目的；同时，通过上述设置，使得整个供水水路都相互连通，实现了对不同添加剂进行投放时流经的水流可对整个供水水路、不同添加剂投放的支路同时进行冲洗的目的，进而达到了减少水路内添加剂残留量的效果。
