Further, the diversion trench 23 may be an arc-shaped trench, for example, if the center line of the water inlet 11 and the center line of the water outlet 12 form an included angle of 90 degrees, the arc of the arc-shaped trench may also be 1/4 arc, and the diversion trench 23 is selected to be an arc-shaped trench, so that the washing water can flow smoothly in the diversion trench 23, and the phenomenon that the impact force between the washing water and the diversion trench 23 is too large due to overlarge fluctuation of the diversion trench 23, so that the water flow can flow out of the diversion trench 23 is prevented. The baffle 211 and the sealing plate 212 may be manufactured separately and connected together, or the baffle 211 and the sealing plate 212 may be manufactured integrally. The preferred embodiment is to design the baffle 211 and the sealing plate 212 as a single structure, for example, a single structure formed by injection molding process can be used to enhance the connection strength between the baffle 211 and the sealing plate 212.
In addition, the rotating shaft 22 of the valve core 20 is located at a side of the mounting portion 213 facing the valve body 10, that is, the rotating shaft 22 and the baffle 211 are respectively connected to two sides of the mounting portion 213, and one end of the rotating shaft 22 away from the mounting portion 213 is connected to the driving device to drive the valve core 20 to rotate in the valve body 10, so as to switch the working state of the drain valve 100.

Illustratively, the valve body 10 includes two oppositely disposed first sides 17 and two second sides 18, with the water outlet 12 being located on either of the first sides 17, and the motor being mountable on the second sides 18. The motor is detachably mounted on the second side 18, the second side 18 is provided with a mounting seat 14 for mounting the motor, and the motor is detachably mounted on the mounting seat 14. To meet the light weight requirements of the washing machine, the mounting base 14 includes four bosses disposed on the second side 18, and the four bosses may be diagonally distributed on the second side 18; each boss is provided with a clamping groove, the motor comprises a base, a clamping block matched with the clamping groove is arranged on the base, and the motor can be clamped in the clamping groove of the boss through the clamping block, so that the motor is detachably connected to the valve body 10; the detachable connection mode of the motor and the valve body 10 is not limited to the above-mentioned fastening mode, and the motor may be mounted on the valve body 10 by means of bolt fixation.

When the sealing surface 24 of the valve core 20 is opposite to the water inlet 11 and seals the water inlet 11, the elastic sealing element is fully contacted with the sealing surface 24 and is tightly attached to the sealing surface 24 under the self-saving elastic action, so that the sealing effect between the water inlet 11 and the sealing surface 24 is enhanced; such elastomeric seals include, but are not limited to, rubber seals, such as O-rings.
As shown in fig. 5, in this embodiment, the valve core 20 further includes a positioning block 215, when two ends of the flow guiding groove 23 are respectively communicated with the water inlet 11 and the water outlet 12 of the valve body 10, the positioning block 215 is abutted against the bottom of the valve body 10, that is, the valve core 20 is rotated, when the positioning block 215 on the valve core 20 is abutted against the bottom of the valve body 10, one end of the flow guiding groove 23 is opposite to the water inlet 11, the washing water can be led to the flow guiding groove 23, the other end of the flow guiding groove 23 can be opposite to the water inlet 11, and the lower edge of the notch of the flow guiding groove 23 is flush with the lower edge of the water outlet 12, or the lower edge of the notch of the flow guiding groove 23 is slightly higher than the lower edge of the water outlet 12, so that the water in the flow guiding groove 23 can flow through the water outlet 12 to be discharged out of the washing machine.
It is understood that the positioning block 215 may be installed between the baffle 211 and the sealing portion 214; for example, the positioning block 215 may be embedded on the reinforcing rib plate 216 between the baffle 211 and the sealing portion 214. The positioning block 215 can be made of a material with a certain elastic property, and can not only provide positioning for the valve core 20, but also provide effective support and buffering, so that the valve core 20 can be kept stable in the discharged washing water, and meanwhile, the stress of the rotating shaft 22 can be relieved, and the jumping phenomenon of the rotating shaft axis of the rotating shaft 22 in the long-term use process can be prevented.
