Description

衣物处理设备 技术领域
本发明涉及衣物处理设备领域,具体提供一种衣物处理设备。
背景技术
现有的洗衣机,通常会通过加入洗涤剂来达到对衣物去除污渍的目的,洗涤剂主要是通过其化学成分来进行去污的,洗涤剂是否能够充分溶解,影响着衣物的洗涤效果,如若洗涤剂不能够充分溶解,则会导致其残留在衣物上,从而造成对衣物的损伤。
现有技术中,为了加快洗涤剂的溶解和对衣物上污渍的去除,通常会引入气体发生装置,气体发生装置的气体出口设置在内筒和外筒之间,如,气体发生装置直接设置在外筒的内侧壁上,其气体出口产生的气泡直接发射到内筒与外筒之间,或者,气体发生装置设置在外筒的外部,通过管路将气泡引入内筒和外筒之间,然后,气泡通过内筒的透水孔进入到内筒中,但是,上述设置方式对洗涤剂的溶解和衣物上污渍的去除的效果却有限。
为了解决上述问题,现有的改进方案,均是针对气体发生装置或者相关管路的改进,从而使气体出口产生的气泡足够多,或者产生微气泡,虽然对去除衣物污渍和对洗涤剂的溶解度稍有提高,但是,其效果还没有达到让用户满意的程度。
相应地,本领域需要一种新的衣物处理设备来解决现有的洗衣机的去除衣物污渍和对洗涤剂的溶解效果有待明显提高的问题。
发明内容
本发明旨在解决上述技术问题,即,解决现有的洗衣机的去除衣物污渍和对洗涤剂的溶解度效果有待明显提高的问题。
本发明提供一种衣物处理设备,所述衣物处理设备包括:机壳;内筒,所述内筒上开设有内筒投放口;外筒,所述外筒设于所述内筒的外侧,且所述外筒上开设有与所述内筒投放口对应设置的外筒口,所述外筒口设有越过所述内筒投放口的弯折结构,所述弯折结构与所述内筒投放口之间留有安装间隙;气体发生装置,所述气体发生装置上设有气体出口;气体输送装置,所述气体输送装置包括进气端和出气端,所述进气端与所述气体出口相连通,所述出气端穿过所述外筒,并沿着所述弯折结构设置于所述安装间隙,最终延伸至所述内筒的储水区。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述弯折结构由所述内筒投放口向所述内筒的内壁弯折。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述气体输送装置为管体。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述管体穿过所述安装间隙后,向下弯折的部分为软管。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述弯折结构由所述外筒口向所述内筒的轴向弯折,所述气体输送装置包括第一输送管和第二输送管,所述第一输送管的第一端为所述进气端,所述第一输送管的第二端穿过所述外筒,并沿着所述弯折结构设置于所述安装间隙,最终沿着所述弯折结构延伸至所述弯折结构以外,所述第二输送管的第一端与所述第一输送管的第二端通过轴承连接,所述第二输送管的第二端为所述出气端。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述弯折结构设置于所述外筒口的周向下部,或沿所述外筒口的周向设置。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述弯折结构与所述外筒口一体成型。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述弯折结构与所述外筒口可拆卸连接。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述气体发生装置设于所述外筒的外侧,或设于所述机壳的内壁上。
在上述衣物处理设备的优选技术方案中,所述气体发生器为气泵、风机或压缩机。
可以理解的是,本发明的衣物处理设备包括:机壳、内筒、外筒、气体发生装置和气体输送装置,内筒上开设有内筒投放口;外筒设于内筒的外侧,且外筒上开设有与内筒投放口对应设置的外筒口,外筒口设有越过内筒投放口的弯折结构,弯折结构与内筒投放口之间留有安装间隙;气体发生装置上设有气体出口;气体输送装置包括进气端和出气端,进气端与气体出口相连通,出气端穿过外筒,并沿着弯折结构设置于安装间隙,最终延伸至内筒的储水区。
本申请通过将气体输送装置的出气端延伸至内筒的储水区,即将气体发生装置产生的高能气体直接导入到内筒的储水区当中,在洗涤/漂洗水中形成高能气泡,进而在水中形成大量的空化气泡,数千亿计的刚性空泡炸裂,随即产生强大的冲击力,高效剥离衣物上的脏污,减少洗涤剂的使用量以及残留,去污以及对洗涤剂的溶解效果得到了明显的提高。
此外,由于本发明的气体输送装置是穿过外筒延伸至内筒的储水区的,外筒的材质通常为刚性材质,若内筒中的衣物与气体输送装置发生干涉,容易损坏气体输送装置,为了避免此种情况的出现,本发明通过外筒口上的弯折结构,以及气体输送装置沿着弯折结构设置于安装间隙的设置方式,能够为气体输送装置提供支撑以及保护,使气体输送装置不受损坏,如当由外筒口投放衣物时,或当衣物绕内筒轴向转动时,由于弯折结构的设置,衣物只会接触弯折结构的外壁,而不会接触到弯折结构内的气体输送装置,当衣物在轴向上挤压气体输送装置时,弯折结构会对气体输送装置提供支撑,从而避免气体输送装置折断。

如图1至5所示,为了解决现有的洗衣机的去除衣物污渍和对洗涤剂的溶解效果有待明显提高的问题,本发明的衣物处理设备包括机壳1、内筒2、外筒3、气体发生装置5和气体输送装置6,内筒2可转动地设置于外筒3内侧,外筒3设于机壳1内侧,内筒2上开设有内筒投放口21,外筒3上开设有与内筒投放口21对应设置的外筒口31,外筒口31设有越过内筒投放口21的弯折结构4,弯折结构4与内筒投放口21之间留有安装间隙;气体发生装置5上设有气体出口51,气体输送装置6包括进气端(未示出)和出气端61,进气端与气体出口51相连通,出气端61穿过外筒3,并沿着弯折结构4设置于安装间隙,最终延伸至内筒2的储水区,即气体发生装置5的气体流动路径为,由气体发生装置5的气体 出口51,并通过气体输送装置6的进气端进入到气体输送装置6中,然后由气体输送装置6的出气端61排出至内筒2的储水区当中,内筒2的储水区指的是,洗涤水在内筒2中的区域。
其中,气体发生装置5的具体结构形式包括多种,例如,可以为气泵、风机或压缩机等,气体发生装置5的设置位置包括多种,如,可以设置在外筒3的外侧,优选的,设置于外筒3的外侧前端(如图1、2和5),从而可以缩减相关管路的长度,节省生产成本;气体发生装置5还可以设置在机壳1的内壁上(如图3和图4),如设置在滚筒洗衣机的机壳1的左侧壁或右侧壁,顶壁或底壁等位置处(由滚筒洗衣机的门体方向看)。气体发生装置5引入气体的实施方式包括多种,例如,当气体发生装置5设置在外筒3的外侧时,气体发生装置5的气体进口可以通过连接管与衣物处理设备的机壳1上的开设的通气孔相连接;当气体发生装置5设置在机壳1的内壁上时,气体发生装置5的气体进口可以直接与机壳1上的开设的通气孔相连接等。此外,本发明的衣物处理设备的具体形式包括多种,如可以为滚筒洗衣机、波轮洗衣机或洗鞋机等。
由于现有技术的气体发生装置5的气体出口51产生的气泡直接发射到内筒2与外筒3之间,对洗涤剂的溶解和衣物上污渍的去除效果有限,改进方案通常为,通过加大气体发生装置5的气量,或者,改进气体发生装置5,使其产生微气泡等,但最后使用效果却没有得到显著的提高。
申请人经过研究发现,气泡由外筒3通过内筒2上的透水孔进入到内筒2中的概率很小,而且实验证明,即使不是较大的气泡,而是非常细小的微气泡也很难有效的进入到内筒2中。即,本申请发现了对洗涤剂的溶解和衣物上污渍的去除效果较差的主要原因,并不在于产生的气泡量的多少,以及产生的气泡量的大小,而是在于内筒2上透水孔使气泡无法有效进入到内筒2中。
基于上述本领域技术人员未发现的问题,本申请通过将气体输送装置6的出气端61延伸至内筒2的储水区,即将气体发生装置5产生的高能气体直接导入到内筒2的储水区当中,在洗涤/漂洗水中形成高能气泡,进而在水中形成大量的空化气泡,数千亿计的刚性空泡炸裂,随即产生强大的冲击力,高效剥离衣物上的脏污,减少洗涤剂的使用量以及残留, 去污以及对洗涤剂的溶解效果得到了明显的提高。
此外,由于本发明的气体输送装置6是穿过外筒3延伸至内筒2的储水区的,外筒3的材质通常为刚性材质,若内筒2中的衣物与气体输送装置6发生干涉,容易损坏气体输送装置6,为了避免此种情况的出现,本发明通过外筒口31上的弯折结构4,以及气体输送装置6沿着弯折结构4设置于安装间隙的设置方式,能够为气体输送装置6提供支撑以及保护,使气体输送装置6不受损坏,如,当由外筒口31投放衣物时,或当衣物绕内筒2轴向转动时,由于弯折结构4的设置,衣物只会接触弯折结构4的外壁,而不会接触到弯折结构4内的气体输送装置6,当衣物在轴向上挤压气体输送装置6时,弯折结构4会对气体输送装置6提供支撑,从而避免气体输送装置6折断。
其中,气体输送装置6穿过外筒3的相关设置方式包括多种,例如,为了保证外筒3内的密封性,气体输送装置6至少部分为橡胶软管,该部分橡胶软管与穿过外筒3的安装孔之间过盈配合;或者,气体输送装置6与穿过外筒3的安装孔之间垫设有密封圈等,从而实现密封连接。
作为一种优选的实施方式,弯折结构4由内筒投放口21处向内筒2的内壁弯折。
由于气体输送装置6沿着弯折结构4设置,因此,弯折结构4由内筒2投放口21处向内筒2的内壁弯折,能够使得气体输送装置6的出气端61最终延伸至内筒2的前端。对于滚筒洗衣机来讲,大部分衣物均聚集在内筒2的中后部,前部仅有少量衣物;对于波轮洗衣机来讲,由于波轮洗衣机的滚筒的轴向与地面是垂直的,而洗涤水通常是完全浸泡衣物的,上部分洗涤水区域通常不会与衣物之间发生干涉;因此,无论是滚筒洗衣机还是波轮洗衣机,上述设置方式,均可以减轻气体输送装置6与衣物之间的干涉现象。
此外,由于弯折结构4由内筒投放口21处向内筒2的内壁弯折,在弯折结构4的内侧能够形成一个气体输送装置6的有效保护区,能够避免该区域内的气体输送装置6与衣物接触,从而,能够进一步的保护气体输送装置6不受损坏,提高其使用寿命。
进一步地,气体输送装置6的出气端61可以延伸至接近内筒2的内 壁处,从而既能够保证有效产生气泡,又能够避免出气端61与内筒2的内壁之间的间隙较大,进而导致出现形成较大的间隙将衣物卡住等现象出现。
本发明的气体输送装置6的具体结构包括多种,下面本发明将以以下几种可能的实施方式为例进行介绍。
参照图1至图4,作为气体输送装置6具体结构的第一种可能的实施方式,气体输送装置6为管体62。
也就是说,气体发生装置5产生的高能气体直接通过管体62输送至内筒2的储水区当中。此种设置方式,由于管体62体积较小,所以占用内筒2的空间少,此外,此种结构简单,生产成本较低。
进一步地,管体62穿过安装间隙后,向下弯折的部分为软管。例如,为弹性硅胶管,或者波纹软管等;由于向下弯折的部分为软管,从而当软管与内筒2中的衣物之间发生碰撞时,软管可以通过自身的形变,避免软管或者衣物的损坏。此外,弯折结构4内侧形成的保护区域能够避免衣物与此区域的管体62直接接触,从而保护软管以外的管体62不受损坏。
其中,上述的管体62可以为一体成型设置的;当然,也可以为分体设置的,如,管体62包括连接管和下插管,连接管的第一端为进气端,通过该进气端与气体发生装置5的气体出口51相连接,连接管的第二端穿过外筒3,并沿着弯折结构4设置于安装间隙,且贴设于弯折结构4的内壁上,并与下插管的第一端相连,下插管的第二端为出气端61,延伸至内筒2的储水区。
通过连接管和下插管的设置,可以实现连接管与下插管的可拆卸连接,例如,下插管的第一端直接插入(过盈配合、卡接等)连接管的第二端等,从而有利于下插管的维护与更换;或者,便于按照使用工况,将连接管与下插管设计成不同的结构形式等,如将下插管设计成软管,将连接管设置成刚性管等。
参照图5,作为气体输送装置6具体结构的第二种可能的实施方式,弯折结构4由外筒口31向内筒2的轴向弯折,气体输送装置6包括第一输送管63和第二输送管64,第一输送管63的第一端为进气端,第一输 送管63的第二端穿过外筒3,并沿着弯折结构4设置于安装间隙,最终沿着弯折结构4延伸至弯折结构4以外,第二输送管64的第一端与第一输送管63的第二端通过轴承7连接,第二输送管64的第二端为出气端61。其中,第二输送管64的第一端与第一输送管63的第二端通过轴承7连接的具体设置方式包括多种,例如,轴承7的外圈压设于第二输送管64的第一端内,第一输送管63的第二端设于轴承7的内圈中,或者,轴承7的外圈压设于第一输送管63的第二端内,第二输送管64的第一端设于轴承7的内圈中等。
可以理解的是,由于弯折结构4由外筒口31向内筒2的轴向弯折,第一输送管63沿着弯折结构4延伸至弯折结构4以外,因此,第一输送管63也是沿着内筒2的轴向延伸的,也就是说,第一输送管63的第二端与第二输送管64的第一端是在弯折结构4以外的内筒2轴向上通过轴承7连接的,所以,第二输送管64可以绕着内筒2的轴向转动,且弯折结构4不会妨碍第二输送管64的转动。
上述设置方式的优点在于:由于第二输送管64的第二端伸入内筒2的储水区设置,也就是说,第二输送管64为主要与衣物发生干涉的部分,且由于第二输送管64与衣物均是绕着内筒2的轴向转动的,因此,衣物的转动方向与第二输送管64的转动方向一致,在第二输送管64与衣物发生干涉时,第二输送管64会与衣物共同绕着内筒2轴向转动,进而,能够有效的保护衣物与第二输送管64不受损坏。
此外,由于重力的作用,第二输送管64最终是朝向内筒2底侧的,不影响第二输送管64对高能气体的输送。此外,弯折结构4能够对第一输送管63提供支撑与保护,抵消衣物传递过来的作用力或者避免衣物与第一输送管63直接接触,有效保护第一输送管63不受损坏。
本发明的弯折结构4在外筒口31上的具体设置方式包括多种,下面本文将以以下几种可能的实施方式为例进行介绍。
作为一种可能的实施方式,弯折结构4与外筒口31一体成型。此种情况下,优选的,弯折结构4设置于外筒口31的周向下部(参照图2至图4),从而,便于内筒2与外筒3之间的安装,如,内筒投放口21的一侧首先装入外筒3的弯折结构4内侧,然后再与外筒3同轴安装另一侧, 从而完成内筒2与外筒3之间的安装。
当然,较为次之的,此种情况下,弯折结构4也可以沿外筒口31的周向设置(如图1和图5)。
作为一种可能的实施方式,弯折结构4与外筒口31可拆卸连接。其中,弯折结构4与外筒口31可拆卸连接的具体方式包括多种,例如,通过螺钉连接或者卡接等。
此种设置方式,可以在内筒2与外筒3安装完毕之后,直接将弯折结构4安装在外筒口31上即可,不影响内筒2和外筒3之间的组装。此种情况下,弯折结构4既可以设置于外筒口31的周向下部,也可以沿外筒口31的周向设置。
在弯折结构4沿外筒口31的周向设置时,由于弯折结构4是越过内筒投放口21设置的,因此,此种设置方式,能够使弯折结构4包裹住内筒投放口21,从而大大降低内筒2与外筒3之间的缝隙,避免异物的进入,以及具有美观性。
需要说明的是,上述实施方式仅仅用来阐述本发明的原理,并非旨在与限制本发明的保护范围,在不偏离本发明原理的条件下,本领域技术人员能够对上述结构进行调整,以便本发明能够应用于更加具体的应用场景。
例如,作为本发明的一种可替换的实施方式,虽然本发明是以弯折结构4由内筒投放口21向内筒2的内壁弯折设置进行介绍的,但这并不旨在于限制本发明的保护范围,只要能够对气体输送管路提供保护,其设置方式可以调整,如,弯折结构4由外筒口31向内筒2的轴向弯折设置等,这些都不偏离本发明的原理,因此,均在本发明的保护范围之内。
例如,作为本发明的一种可替换的实施方式,虽然本发明是以第一输送管63的第二端穿过外筒3,并沿着弯折结构4设置于安装间隙,最终沿着弯折结构4延伸至弯折结构4以外进行介绍的,但这并不旨在于限制本发明的保护范围,只要能够实现第二输送管64的转动,其设置方式可以调整,如,第一输送管63的第二端延伸至弯折结构4以内,此种情况下,第二输送管64在弯折结构4以外的部分向内筒2的内壁侧发生弯折等,这些都不偏离本发明的原理,因此,均在本发明的保护范围之 内。
至此,已经结合附图所示的优选实施方式描述了本发明的技术方案,但是,本领域技术人员容易理解的是,本发明的保护范围显然不局限于这些具体实施方式。在不偏离本发明的原理的前提下,本领域技术人员可以对相关技术特征作出等同的更改或替换,这些更改或替换之后的技术方案都将落入本发明的保护范围之内。
