A laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a cabinet 100, a tub 400, a washing filter assembly 300, and an air duct 210, the tub 400 being provided within the cabinet 100. The laundry treating apparatus 1000 may also be a washing and drying machine or a clothes dryer, and the laundry treating apparatus 1000 may also be other apparatuses having washing and drying functions (e.g., a clothes dyeing apparatus). In which the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is dried in the tub 400, it can be understood that, when the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is a washing and drying machine, the laundry is also washed in the tub 400. For simplicity, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 will be described below by taking a washing and drying machine as an example.

The washing filter assembly 300 includes a cartridge holder 310, a detergent cartridge 320, and a filter 240, the detergent cartridge 320, and the filter 240. The cabinet 100 is provided with a drawing opening 104, and the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 are drawably fitted at the drawing opening 104 between the extended position and the retracted position. The cartridge holder 310 is provided between the cabinet 100 and the tub 400, and the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 are at least partially located in the cartridge holder 310 when they are in the retracted position. Here, the detergent box 320 serves to contain detergent, which may enter the tub 400 along with the running water when the laundry is treated.

There are various positional relationships of the detergent box 320, the filter 240, and the box holder 310. In the retracted position, the detergent box 320 may be located entirely or partially within the cartridge receptacle 310, and the filter 240 may be located entirely or partially within the cartridge receptacle 310.

The detergent box 320 and the filter 240 are provided to be drawable on the cabinet 100, so that the detergent box 320 or the filter 240 can be drawn out to the extended position when the detergent needs to be replenished or the filter 240 needs to be cleaned. The cartridge holder 310 is provided to hold the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 in the cabinet 100. Furthermore, there are some embodiments of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 having a water inlet (not shown) connected to the cabinet 310, wherein water flows from the cabinet 310 into the detergent box 320 and carries away a part of the detergent. The cartridge holder 310 is provided with a water outlet pipe 330 communicating with the tub 400, and water with detergent flows into the tub 400 from the water outlet pipe 330 to participate in the washing process. The principle and corresponding structure of the detergent box 320 for flowing the detergent into the tub 400 with the water flow are the prior art, and are not described and limited herein.

The air channel member 210 is disposed in the case 100, and both ends of the air channel member 210 are respectively communicated with the tub 400, and a circulation path is formed between the air channel member 210 and the tub 400. Specifically, the barrel 400 has an inlet 401 and an outlet 402 spaced apart from each other, and both ends of the air duct 210 communicate with the inlet 401 and the outlet 402, respectively. In operation, the air channel 210 is connected to the tub 400 for containing the laundry at both ends thereof, and the air channel 210 and the tub 400 define an air circulation path (i.e., a path from the outlet 402 of the tub 400 to the inlet 401 of the tub 400 along the air channel 210 and then back to the air channel 210 from the tub 400). The air flow may circulate between the tub 400 and the air duct 210 to form a circulating wind. The air duct 210 is provided to add some functions to the laundry treating apparatus 1000. For example, when the device has a drying function, a condensing unit (or a drying agent) may be disposed in the air duct 210 to remove moisture from the air, so that the laundry is quickly dehydrated and dried. For example, when the device has a function of removing dust, a filter element may be disposed in the air duct member 210 to remove dust in the air, so as to reduce the dust adhering to the clothes. For example, when the device has a fragrance enhancing function, a fragrance enhancing agent may be disposed in the air duct member 210 to adhere fragrance to clothes.

In the scheme of this application, filter 240 and be located the circulation path of wind channel piece 210, utilize washing filtering component 300's filter 240 like this, can reduce the interior coarse cotton bits impurity that detains in wind channel piece 210 to the interior filtration of wind channel piece 210, just also reduced because of impurity detains wind channel piece 210 and leads to wind channel piece 210 interior bacterial growing. In addition, after the impurities of the flocks in the air are reduced, the impurities of the flocks left on the clothes are also reduced, and the cleanliness of the clothes treatment is improved.

The laundry treating apparatus 1000 according to the present application arranges the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 in a horizontal direction. This can greatly reduce the occupied space, especially, the height of the washing filter assembly 300, which is advantageous for reducing the overall height of the laundry treating apparatus 1000.

In some embodiments, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 includes a drying system 200, and the drying system 200 includes a heat exchanging assembly 200A and a blower 250 (the blower 250 is located in the air duct 210 in fig. 2 and 3).

Specifically, drying system 200 is disposed between box 100 and tub 400, and heat exchange assembly 200A includes: a heat absorbing member 220, a heating member 230. More specifically, the heat absorbing member 220, the heating member 230, and the fan 250 are all provided within the air duct member 210, i.e., the heat absorbing member 220, the heating member 230, and the fan 250 are all located on the circulation path of the air duct member 210. Under the driving of the blower 250, the air flow may circulate between the tub 400 and the air channel 210 to form a circulation wind, so as to gradually dry the laundry in the tub 400.

Specifically, after the blower 250 is activated, the air duct 210 provides hot and dry air flow to the tub 400, and in some cases, the clothes in the tub 400 may be continuously turned over. The moisture of the laundry is evaporated by heat absorption under the heating of the hot dry air to form water vapor, and the air flow mixed with the water vapor is discharged from the air outlet 402 of the tub 400 and flows into the air duct 210. Then, the wet air flows through the heat absorbing member 220, the heat absorbing member 220 absorbs heat to greatly lower the temperature of the air, the water vapor in the air is condensed to form liquid droplets or water mist after the air is cooled, and the liquid droplets or water mist attached to the surface of the heat absorbing member 220 can flow downward along the heat absorbing member 220 under the action of gravity. After cooling, the humidity of the air is reduced, and then the air flows through the heating member 230 to form hot dry air. And then, the dry and hot air is returned to the tub 400 to dry the laundry in the tub 400, the dry and hot air absorbs moisture of the laundry in the tub 400 to be converted into damp and hot air, and the damp and hot air is blown out of the tub 400 again, and the cycle is repeated.

It can be seen from the principle analysis of the drying system 200 that the drying effect is not only influenced by the heat exchange capability of the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230, but also by the air volume. The large air volume can enhance the fluidity and the flowing range of the air, enhance the heat exchange effect between the clothes and the air, enhance the heat exchange effect between the air and the heat exchange assembly 200A (the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230), and drive more humid and hot air in the tub 400 to enter the air channel member 210. In order to improve the drying effect, if the power of the heat absorbing member 220, the heating member 230 and the fan 250 is simply increased, not only the energy consumption burden of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000 is increased, but also the size of the components is generally increased, which results in an increase in the overall occupied space of the drying system 200 and an increase in the size of the laundry treatment apparatus 1000.

However, if the drying system 200 is arbitrarily arranged by simply increasing the cross-sectional flow area of the air duct 210, an excessive area is occupied. If other structures are to be installed on the laundry treating apparatus 1000, the locations where these structures can be installed are limited, and the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is also required to be large-sized.

According to the clothes processing device 1000 provided by the application, the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 are arranged along the horizontal direction, so that the contradiction that the space in the box body 100 is limited and the air volume of the drying system 200 needs to be ensured can be solved.

It can be understood that the washing filter assembly 300 of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 generally occupies a large space. This is because the detergent box 320 is usually required to be filled with a sufficient amount of detergent for a plurality of washing processes, and a certain amount of running water is required to be left in the washing filter assembly 300. In addition, since the washing filter assembly 300 has water flowing therethrough, the fixing structure of the cartridge holder 310 is required to be high to withstand long-term water impact.

When the washing and filtering assembly 300 and the drying system 200 are disposed on the laundry treating apparatus 1000, both of them occupy a large space, both of them need to bear the impact of fluid (water, air), and both of them have high requirements for installation and fixation. The detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 are arranged along the horizontal direction, which is equivalent to the washing and filtering assembly 300 arranged on one horizontal side of the drying system 200, and the two are not vertically arranged, so that the height of the clothes processing device 1000 can be controlled. And the size of detergent box 320 is great relatively, can set up filter 240 longer with detergent box 320 back side by side, provides great buffer space for the air inflow, and the air admission filters 240 more smoothly, even with the design of the width of filter 240 narrower also can guarantee great amount of wind to guarantee the stoving effect.

In addition, since the washing filter assembly 300 has water flowing through, the water flow absorbs heat to keep the washing filter assembly 300 at a lower temperature. After the washing filter assembly 300 is integrated with the drying system 200, the hot and humid air flows through the washing filter assembly 300 and is pre-absorbed by the washing filter assembly 300 before flowing through the heat absorbing member 220, so that more condensed water can be generated after the hot and humid air absorbs more heat, and the drying effect can be enhanced.

In some embodiments, the drying system 200 is a heat pump drying system. The heat pump drying system further comprises: a compressor, a throttling device (not shown), etc., the compressor, the throttling device, the heating member 230, and the heat absorbing member 220 define a refrigerant circulation path. The throttle device is connected between the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230, and the compressor is connected to the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230, respectively. The heat absorbing member 220 is also referred to as an evaporator in the heat pump drying system, and the heating member 230 is also referred to as a condenser in the heat pump drying system. The throttling device may be a mechanical throttle, an electronic expansion valve, a thermal expansion valve, or a throttle solenoid valve, and is not limited herein. In some schemes, the throttling device is a capillary tube, so that the throttling device and other parts of the system are conveniently and compactly arranged, the occupied space is reduced, and the cost can be reduced.

In some schemes, a drying filter is arranged between the evaporator and the condenser. When the heat pump drying system works, the compressor compresses the refrigerant in the compressor into high-temperature high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, the high-temperature high-pressure refrigerant is pumped into the heating element 230 to release heat and be condensed into liquid refrigerant, then the refrigerant is filtered by the drying filter and throttled by the throttling device to become low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant, the low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat and is evaporated to form low-temperature low-pressure gaseous refrigerant or gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant after flowing into the heat absorbing part 220, and finally the refrigerant in the heat absorbing part 220 flows back to the compressor to be compressed again, and the cycle is repeated.

In another embodiment, an electric heating device is further added at the condenser, and even the heating element 230 is used as a main heat source, so as to increase the drying effect on the clothes.

In the heat pump drying system, the compressor is not disposed inside the air duct 210 because the compressor has a large volume. The compressor may be provided at a corner inside the case 100 to sufficiently utilize a corner space inside the case 100. The throttle device, the dry filter, etc. may be disposed in the air duct member 210 or adjacent to the air duct member 210, which may reduce the length of the refrigerant pipe.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 1, the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230 are arranged side by side, so that not only is the cross-sectional area of flow large, but also the airflow flows in a straight line in the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230, and the path is short, which is beneficial to reducing wind resistance and increasing air volume.

In some embodiments, the drying system 200 is located above the tub 400, and the detergent box 320, the filter 240, and the heat exchange assembly 200A are sequentially arranged along a horizontal direction. That is, the detergent box 320, the filter 240 and the heat exchange assembly 200A are all located above the tub 400 and are located at substantially the same height. Thus, the height space occupied by the drying system 200 and the washing filter assembly 300 is small, and the height of the entire laundry treating apparatus 1000 is not too high. And above the tub 400, when the top wall of the cabinet 100 is opened, both the drying system 200 and the washing filter assembly 300 can be exposed, facilitating inspection and maintenance.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2 to 4, the filter 240 is disposed between the air outlet 402 of the tub 400 and the heat absorbing member 220 to prevent impurities from accumulating on the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230 to cause a decrease in heat exchange efficiency. The filter element 240 is flexible in its particular location and can be positioned adjacent to the outlet 402 or adjacent to the heat absorbing member 220.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2 and 4, a filtering chamber 201 is defined in the air duct member 210, the filtering chamber 201 for installing the filtering member 240 is disposed in the air duct member 210, the filtering member 240 has an independent installation space, a structure of the filtering member 240 with a stronger filtering effect can be selected, and a larger space is favorable for optimizing an air circulation path, so that an excessive wind resistance caused by the arrangement of the filtering member 240 is avoided.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the detergent box 320, the filter member 240, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230 are arranged side by side, and the outlet air at the outlet 402 flows from the filter member 240 to the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230. After the four devices are arranged side by side, the thickness occupied by the whole four devices is smaller. If the four devices are considered as a thin body, the thin body can be plugged on one side of the barrel 400 without the opening 403, for example, on the top or left and right sides of the barrel 400, and the thin body can be accommodated only by a small space between the box 100 and the barrel 400. The drying system 200 and the washing filter assembly 300 designed based on the thin layer body can be thinner corresponding to the thicknesses of the four devices, which is beneficial to reducing the size of the box body 100.

By arranging the detergent box 320, the filter members 240, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230 side by side, the space between the detergent box 320 and the heat absorbing member 220 can be sufficiently utilized to form the filter chamber 201. The air flow enters the filter chamber 201 and then turns to flow toward the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230, enters the filter member 240 and then flows in a substantially straight line, turns 90 degrees and then flows in a straight line toward the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230. Such a structure layout is beneficial to the air flow to form a lower air pressure at the filtering member 240, and the air flow is very smoothly sucked into the filtering chamber 201 from the barrel 400, so that the suction air volume is increased.

In addition, after the detergent box 320, the filter member 240, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230 are arranged side by side, the air enters the filter member 240, turns 90 degrees, and flows straight toward the heat absorbing member 220. The 90 turn position is located downstream of the filter element 240 and the air does not turn upstream of the filter element 240 to facilitate air flow. The residence time of the air in the downstream of the filter member 240 is slightly prolonged, and the air flow reversal facilitates the increase of the contact area between the air and the filter member 240, thereby improving the filtering effect without increasing the wind resistance.

Specifically, the filter member 240 and the detergent box 320 share the drawing port 104, and the detergent box 320 is parallel to the drawing direction of the filter member 240. Therefore, the filter element 240 and the detergent box 320 can be arranged more closely, and when the filter element 240 and the detergent box 320 are both positioned at the retracted positions, the air channel element 210 and the box seat 310 can be effectively closed, so that the possibility of water leakage and air leakage is reduced. And the detergent box 320 is parallel to the drawing direction of the filter element 240, so that the size of the common drawing opening 104 can be reduced, and the case 100 is prevented from being too low in structural rigidity due to too large digging opening. Wherein the filter member 240 is also drawable at the drawing opening 104, and the filter member 240 can be drawn out of the housing 100 from the drawing opening 104 when cleaning is required, so that the cleaning of foreign matters is very simple.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, the front side of the cabinet 100 includes a front control panel 102, and the drawing opening 104 is formed on the front control panel 102, i.e., the detergent box 320 is drawable from the front side. Here, the drawing port 104 is formed at a side of the cabinet 100 rather than at a top thereof, so that the detergent box 320 is drawn in a substantially horizontal direction, and a feeding port 322 (as shown in fig. 4) may be formed at a top of the detergent box 320, so as to facilitate feeding of the detergent. The drawing opening 104 is provided at the front side of the laundry treating apparatus 1000 rather than the back side or the side surface because the front side is generally the main appearance surface of the laundry treating apparatus 1000, and the back side surface may need to be adjacent to a corner or other household appliances, so that the drawing operation at the front side is more convenient.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2 to 3, the box 100 further includes a control panel cover 103 for opening and closing the drawing opening 104, and the control panel cover 103 can seal the drawing opening 104, so as to improve the sealing performance and the aesthetic appearance.

In some optional embodiments, the console cover 103 is rotatably connected to the front console 102, so that the console cover 103 can be prevented from being lost and can be opened and closed conveniently. In addition, the large console cover 103 is easy to form a continuous design integral with the front side panel in terms of decoration.

In other alternative embodiments, the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 are both attached to the panel cover 103 such that when the detergent box 320 is opened by a user, the filter member 240 is also opened, thus alerting the user to clean the filter member 240. It can be understood that since people can easily think about adding detergent and cannot easily think about cleaning impurities before clothes treatment, the arrangement can make the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 extend and contract simultaneously to play a role in prompting. In addition, the control panel cover 103 is operated to open the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 at the same time, which is very convenient, the area of the control panel cover 103 is relatively large, and the control panel cover 103 is more labor-saving to be manually buckled.

Alternatively, the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 are detachably coupled to the panel cover 103, respectively, and the panel cover 103 may be detached when the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 are located at the retracted positions. When there is water or air leakage at the drawing port 104, the specific water or air leakage position can be observed by placing both the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 in the retracted position and removing the panel cover 103. In addition, when it is desired to open and close only one of the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 using the panel cover 103, the panel cover 103 may be detached from the other one of the detergent box 320 and the filter 240.

In some schemes, the control panel cover 103 can be omitted, so that one part can be saved. Also in this case, the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 may be provided to be independently drawn, and the user may draw only one of the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 at a time.

In some embodiments, the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 are two separate parts, and the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 may be separately drawn. And when the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 are injection-molded parts, the injection molding difficulty of the independent parts is small.

In other schemes, the detergent box 320 and the filter piece 240 are integrally formed, so that the structure can be further integrated, the occupied space of the wall is reduced, the detergent box 320 and the filter piece 240 can be connected in a seamless mode, the detergent box 320 and the filter piece 240 cannot be loosened without gaps, and the air leakage probability is low.

In some embodiments, a portion of the filter 240 is integrally formed with the detergent box 320, and the integral member is referred to as the water-gas treatment combination a. For example, in fig. 4, the filter cartridge 241 is integrally formed at the detergent box 320, and the water-air treatment combination a includes the detergent box 320 and the filter cartridge 241. The arrangement of the water-gas treatment combining part A can save the avoiding space between the water-gas treatment combining part A and the water-gas treatment combining part A, and in some schemes, the detergent box 320 and the filter box 241 can share the wall, so that the saved structural space is used for circulating air. The design of the inner direction of the air duct member 210 toward the direction of reducing the wind resistance is facilitated, so that the air volume can be increased. And the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 can be connected seamlessly, and the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240 are not loosened without gaps, so that the air leakage probability is low.

In some embodiments, the air filtering unit of the filter element 240 is a filter net (not shown), and the filter net may be integrally formed on the filter box 241, so that the filter element 240 is integrally formed with the detergent box 320. In some schemes, the water-air treatment combining part a is an injection molding part, and the filter screen is placed in a mold before the water-air treatment combining part a is subjected to injection molding, so that the filter screen and the filter box 241 can be integrated. Certainly, other schemes are also provided, and the filter screen and the water-gas treatment combining part A are respectively and independently processed and then assembled and connected.

When the water gas treating combination a is provided, the water gas treating combination a is provided to be drawable, and the filter 240 and the detergent box 320 share the drawing port 104.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the filter element 240 has a long bar shape, one end of the filter element 240 in the length direction is communicated with the air outlet 402, the detergent box 320 and the heat absorbing member 220 are located at two sides of the filter element 240 in the width direction, and one side of the filter element 240 in the width direction is exhausted toward the heat absorbing member 220.

Taking fig. 3 as an example, when the detergent box 320, the filter member 240, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230 are arranged side by side in the left-right direction, the left-right direction is also the width direction of the filter member 240, and the front-rear direction is the length direction of the filter member 240. The filter member 240 is formed in a long bar-shaped structure without occupying the width of the detergent box 320, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230, thus ensuring the installation space required for the detergent box 320, the heat absorbing member 220, and the heating member 230 at the same time.

The elongated filter 240 provides a buffer space for the airflow entering the air channel 210 from the barrel 400. It is understood that the outlet 402 of the barrel 400 is generally smaller, while the cross-sectional flow area of the cooling compartment 202 and the heating compartment 203 is larger. The strip-shaped filter element 240 buffers the air rushing from the air outlet 402, and adjusts the air pressure of the whole filter element 240, so that the air pressure in the filter element 240 reaches a balanced state. When the air flows through the refrigerating compartment 202 having a large cross-sectional area in the filter member 240, the air can be distributed more uniformly throughout the refrigerating compartment 202, and the flow speed of the air in the refrigerating compartment 202 is also more uniform, so that the moist and hot air can be absorbed more uniformly.

In addition, the filter element 240 is in a long strip shape and is disposed at one side of the detergent box 320, and after the hot and humid air enters the filter element 240 along the length direction, the time for the air flow to pass through the filter element 240 is long, which is not only beneficial for the air to contact with the filter element 240, but also beneficial for the air to dissipate heat to the adjacent washing filter assembly 300.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3-5, the filter element 240 includes: a filter cassette 241, the filter cassette 241 for containing or supporting the filter unit. The type of the filtering unit is not limited, for example, the filtering unit includes, but not limited to, a filter screen, a honeycomb body, etc., and there are some solutions in which the filtering unit is a rotating net rotatably disposed in the filter box 241, the rotating net is driven to rotate when the airflow flows, and the rotating net is rotated to allow more silk flock, etc. in the airflow to be wound on the rotating net.

In some embodiments, the filtering unit is a filtering net (not shown), which not only has low cost, but also has strong filtering capability to the silk flock, and is not easy to be blocked by the silk flock, and in addition, the wind resistance is small, and the impurities are easy to clean. And for the clothing processing apparatus 1000, the silk wadding class impurity content is big, adopts the filter screen more practical.

Specifically, the filter net is detachably mounted on the filter cartridge 241, which facilitates the removal and cleaning of the filter net from the filter cartridge 241. In some embodiments, the laundry treating apparatus 1000 may be provided with a plurality of filter nets, and when one filter net is damaged, another filter net may be replaced. In some schemes, the filter screen has strong toughness and is not easy to damage, and the filter screen can be fixedly arranged on the filter box 241, so that the filter screen is prevented from loosening in the case of wind.

Further, as shown in fig. 4 to 5, the detergent box 320 is a substantially rectangular box, and a feed opening 322 is provided at the top of the detergent box 320. The filter box 241 is a rectangular box, the top of the filter box 241 can be provided with a cleaning opening 2419, and the bottom wall of the filter box 241 is a filter bottom plate 2411, so that when the filter box 241 is drawn out, the filter bottom plate 2411 can support most of impurities, and a user can take out the impurities from the cleaning opening 2419.

Specifically, one end of the filter box 241 in the length direction forms an air inlet 2417, one side of the filter box 241 in the width direction forms an air outlet 2418, the air inlet 2417 is communicated with the air outlet 402 of the barrel 400, and the air outlet 2418 faces the heat exchange assembly 200A.

Optionally, the filter cassette 241 further has a filter side plate 2412 and at least one support frame 2414, the filter side plate 2412 and the support frame 2414 are disposed on both sides of the filter member 240 in the width direction, and the filter bottom plate 2411 is disposed along the length direction of the filter member 240 and is connected to the filter side plate 2412 and the support frame 2414, respectively. The filter side plate 2412 is disposed on a side of the filter case 241 adjacent to the detergent box 320, and the support frame 2414 is disposed on a side of the filter case 241 adjacent to the heat absorbing member 220, such that the support frame 2414 is correspondingly provided with an air outlet 2418, and air in the filter 240 case flows from the air outlet 2418 to the heat absorbing member 220.

The support frame 2414 is used to support the filter screen, which is located at the downstream end of the filter element 240, and all the air flow passes through the filter screen and then flows to the heat absorbing element 220. The arrangement of the filter screen is also beneficial to hanging condensed water drops on the filter screen, and the water drops can adsorb impurities in the air.

When a plurality of support frames 2414 are provided on the filter cassette 241, the support frames 2414 at other positions may be flexibly provided, for example, the other support frames 2414 may be provided in the width direction, so that the airflow may be intercepted.

In the example shown in fig. 5, the filter cassette 241 has two support frames 2414, each of the two support frames 2414 is disposed along the length direction of the filter member 240, and after the two support frames 2414 support the filter screens, each of the filter screens extends along the length direction of the filter member. One of the support frames 2414 forms a side wall of the filter cassette 241, and the other support frame 2414 is located at a middle position.

The intermediate support frame 2414 is disposed along the length of the filter elements 240 in a direction that is consistent with the direction of air flow from the air inlet 2417 so that the air flow is less windy when entering the filter cartridge 241, thereby allowing the air flow to be substantially self-regulating within the filter cartridge 241. When the air flow reaches the other end of the filter cartridge 241 it turns against the wall and flows towards the air outlet 2418.

Optionally, an air inlet 2417 is formed between the filter side plate 2412 and the middle support frame 2414, and an air inlet 2417 is also formed between the two support frames 2414. The two supporting frames 2414 are respectively supported with a filter screen, when the air flow flows in from the air inlet 2417, the middle supporting frame 2414 is arranged to divide the air flow into two paths, so that air flow flocculation is reduced. And both air streams will eventually be diverted to flow out towards the air outlet 2418, one of which will need to pass through both filters.

In other alternative embodiments, the two support frames 2414 are connected to an edge plate (not shown) at an end adjacent to the air inlet 2417, i.e., the air inlet 2417 is formed between the filter side plate 2412 and the middle support frame 2414, and the two support frames 2414 are sealed by the edge plate. After the air flow is blown between the filter side plate 2412 and the middle support frame 2414 through the air inlet 2417, the air flow is diverted to pass through the two layers of filter screens and flows from the air outlet 2418 to the heat absorbing member 220. The side plates are arranged so that air flows only between the side filter plates 2412 and the middle support frame 2414, and the air flows need to pass through two layers of filter screens to improve the filtering effect.

It should be noted that, since the gas flow is a fluid, the above description of the flowing direction of the gas flow describes the overall flowing direction of the gas flow, and does not limit the flowing of each gas molecule along the above path.

Further, the filter screen detachably sets up on carriage 2414, makes things convenient for the filter screen clean like this, and the filter screen of being convenient for moreover changes the position between different carriage 2414.

Further, as shown in fig. 5, the filter box 241 further has a filter guide plate 2413, and the filter guide plate 2413 is located at an end of the filter base plate 2411 far from the air outlet 402, that is, the filter guide plate 2413 is located opposite to the air inlet 2417. When the air flow flows in from the air inlet 2417, the air flow rushes to the filter guide plate 2413 and turns, the filter guide plate 2413 is arranged to facilitate the air flow to turn more smoothly, the air flow residence time is shortened, and the air pressure is reduced.

Specifically, the filter guide plate 2413 may be an arc-shaped plate, and the air flow flowing along the arc-shaped plate has buffering and guiding effects, and may guide the air flow toward the heat absorbing member 220. In this scheme, the filter guide plate 2413 may also be an inclined plate, which also has a guiding function. More specifically, in a direction toward the air-through outlet 2418, the filter guide 2413 extends gradually away from the air-through inlet 2417, i.e., the closer to the air-through outlet 2418, the farther the filter guide 2413 is from the air-through inlet 2417.

Optionally, the filter guide 2413 is connected to the filter side plate 2412 and the support frame 2414, respectively, so that the filter guide 2413 can cover the entire width of the filter cassette 241, which is advantageous for reducing the eddy current.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, the filter element 240 further includes a cleaning cover 243 attached to the filter cartridge 241, the cleaning cover 243 covering the cleaning opening 2419 of the filter cartridge 241 to restrict the flow of air from the air flow outlet 2418 to the filter cartridge 241.

Optionally, a cleaning cover 243 is rotatably attached to the filter cartridge 241, so as to prevent the cleaning cover 243 from being lost.

The end plate 2416 is provided to allow the filter cassette 241 to be formed as a regular rectangular cassette body, facilitating a sealed installation.

Advantageously, the filter cartridge 241 further includes a pull block 24162 disposed on the end plate 2416, which facilitates the user in withdrawing the filter cartridge 241 through the pull block 24162. In some schemes, the positioning with the heat exchanging base 211 can be performed by using the pulling block 24162.

Optionally, the rotating shaft of the cleaning cover 243 is installed on the filter side plate 2412 and the outermost support frame 2414, and is located between the filter guide 2413 and the end plate 2416, so as to facilitate the rotating shaft to be built in the filter box 241, and avoid interference with the detergent box 320 when being pulled out.

It is understood that if the cartridge holder 310 is installed independently, the air duct member 210 is also installed independently, and a large space for avoiding interference is required between the two members to avoid installation. However, when at least a part of the cartridge holder 310 is integrally formed on the air duct member 210, an escape space between the cartridge holder 310 and the air duct member 210 may be omitted, and in some cases, the cartridge holder 310 and the air duct member 210 may be formed to have a common wall, and the omitted structural space is used for ventilation. The design of the direction of reducing the wind resistance in the air duct piece 210 is facilitated, so that the air quantity can be increased.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2-5, the air tunnel 210 includes: the heat exchange base 211 and the heat exchange cover 212, the heat exchange cover 212 covers the top of the heat exchange base 211, a filter chamber 201 and a heat exchange chamber 210A are defined between the heat exchange base 211 and the heat exchange cover 212, the filter chamber 201 and the heat exchange chamber 210A are sequentially arranged along the airflow flowing direction in the drying system 200, the heat exchange assembly 200A is arranged in the heat exchange chamber 210A, and the filter member 240 is arranged in the filter chamber 201.

When the water treatment coupling A is provided on the laundry treating apparatus 1000, the structure for supporting the water treatment coupling A in the laundry treating apparatus 1000 is also referred to as a coupling seat B, and the water treatment coupling A is at least partially located in the coupling seat B in the retracted position, i.e. the box seat 310 of the washing filter assembly 300 and the part of the duct 210 at least forming the filtering chamber 201 are referred to as the coupling seat B.

Here, the coupling seat B may be divided into a plurality of parts to be separately processed and then assembled at the time of processing, and the coupling seat B may be a single piece. For example, the coupling seat B includes: the combination base B1 and the combination upper cover B2, the combination base B1 and the combination upper cover B2 are covered along the vertical direction, and water is not easy to leak. Optionally, the combined upper cover B2 can be detachably connected to the top of the combined base B1, so that the disassembly, assembly and maintenance are convenient.

Because filter piece 240, heat absorbing member 220 and heating member 230 all can form great resistance to the air current, all install the three in combination seat B, combination seat B takes in the overall arrangement of heat absorbing member 220 and heating member 230 when the design, is favorable to rationally laying out the three, and the orientation reduces the direction design of total windage.

The structure of each component of the combination seat B is described by changing the angle. As shown in fig. 2 to 4, the air duct member 210 includes: heat exchange base 211 and heat exchange cover 212, cassette base 310 includes: the upper box base 312 is covered on the top of the lower box base 311, the lower box base 311 is integrally formed on the heat exchange base 211, and the upper box base 312 is integrally formed on the heat exchange cover 212. The integrated lower cassette holder 311 and heat exchange holder 211 are combined base B1, and the integrated upper cassette holder 312 and heat exchange cover 212 are combined upper cover B2.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4, the bottom of the box holder 310 has a first inclined wall 301, the bottom of the heat exchange holder 211 has a second inclined wall 2113, the first inclined wall 301 and the second inclined wall 2113 are connected after extending toward each other in a downward direction, the detergent box 320 is located above the first inclined wall 301, the filter 240 is located above the second inclined wall 2113, and the first inclined wall 301 is provided with a water outlet pipe 330 communicating with the tub 400.

Thus, the cartridge holder 310 and the heat exchange holder 211 can form a V-shaped bottom wall, which not only increases the structural rigidity, but also facilitates the collection of water, which is discharged from the outlet pipe 330. When being formed with the comdenstion water on filtering piece 240 like this, the comdenstion water also can collect to the V-arrangement diapire on, avoids detaining the water stain and causes bacterial growing.

The water outlet pipe 330 is disposed on the first inclined wall 301, and the water outlet pipe 330 is located on a side of the cartridge holder 310 away from the drying system 200, so that when the water outlet pipe 330 is connected to the barrel 400, excessive interference with the drying system 200 can be avoided. Optionally, in fig. 4, the water outlet pipe 330 is located at the left side of the bottom of the cartridge holder 310, a connection pipe is arranged at the left side of the barrel 400, and the water outlet pipe 330 is connected with the connection pipe through a hose, so that the hose is short and the hose can play a role in buffering.

In some embodiments, the bottom of the detergent box 320 is provided with a first guide surface (not shown) in surface contact with the first inclined wall 301, the bottom of the filter member 240 is provided with a second guide surface (not shown) in surface contact with the second inclined wall 2113, and the sides of the detergent box 320 and the filter member 240 facing each other are in contact. In this way, the detergent box 320 and the filter box 241 are pressed in the direction of each other by the first inclined wall 301 and the second inclined wall 2113 on both sides, and a centering function is generated on the detergent box 320 and the filter box 241. The first guide surface and the second guide surface are used for guiding, which is beneficial to the smooth drawing of the detergent box 320 and the filter element 240.

In addition, when the detergent box 320 and the filter box 241 are two independent parts, the first inclined wall 301 and the second inclined wall 2113 are pressed to reduce the gap between the detergent box 320 and the filter box 241, thereby reducing air leakage.

Specifically, when the cartridge holder 310 is integrally formed with the heat exchange holder 211, a converging cavity 302 is formed between the first inclined wall 301 and the second inclined wall 2113, the converging cavity 302 is located below the detergent cartridge 320, and optionally, the converging cavity 302 is located directly below the detergent cartridge 320 and the filter element 240. After the detergent water in the detergent box 320 is discharged, it flows into the tub 400 through the manifold chamber 302.

Alternatively, when the detergent box 320 is integrally formed with the filter box 241 as the water treatment binder a, the positioning groove may be partially located at the bottom of the filter box 241 so that the water treatment binder a is accurately positioned when in the retracted position.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the air duct 210 further includes: the induced air pipe 215 is connected with the barrel body 400 and the heat exchange base 211, and the induced air pipe 215 is located at the rear side of the heat exchange base 211. The air supply pipe 216 is connected to the tub 400 and the heat exchange base 211, respectively, and the air supply pipe 216 is located at a side of the heat exchange base 211 away from the detergent box 320. The shape and position of the induced air duct 215 and the air supply duct 216 are arranged by using the air inlet and outlet characteristics of the air duct 210, so that on one hand, the distance for air to flow into the barrel 400 is longer, flowing air can flow through all clothes, and the effect of treating the clothes is improved. On the other hand, the induced draft duct 215 and the blast duct 216 can be prevented from occupying too much space.

The induced draft tube 215 is connected with the air outlet 402, the blast tube 216 is connected with the air inlet 401, and after the airflow introduced by the induced draft tube 215 is blown into the filter chamber 201, the airflow passes through the refrigerating chamber 202 and the heating chamber 203 and is then sent back to the barrel 400 from the blast tube 216. Because the connection part with the barrel body 400 needs to be bent to a large extent and needs to be matched with the positions of the air inlet 401 and the air outlet 402 on the barrel body 400, the induced duct 215 and the air supply duct 216, the heat exchange base 211 and the heat exchange cover 212 are separately processed, so that the formation of the induced duct 215 and the air supply duct 216 is facilitated, and the sealing fit is also facilitated.

Specifically, the end of the induced duct 215 connected to the air outlet 402 is a round opening, and the end of the induced duct 215 connected to the filter 240 is a square opening, so that both ends can be conveniently sealed and connected.

Alternatively, the end of the induced duct 215 connected to the filter 240 may have a gradually increasing tube cross-sectional area to disperse the airflow uniformly toward the filter 240.

The blower 250 is arranged in the air supply pipe 216, so that the shape of the air supply pipe 216 is matched with the shape and the air supply path of the blower 250.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2 to 3, the tub 400 is a drum and the opening 403 is disposed forward, the washing and filtering assembly 300 and the drying system 200 are both located above the tub 400, the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230 are disposed adjacent to a vertical central plane of the tub 400, the blower fan 250 and the washing and filtering assembly 300 are located at two sides of the tub 400 in a width direction, and the blower fan 250 is located at a side of the heating member 230 away from the heat absorbing member 220. The vertical center plane of the tub body 400 herein refers to a vertical plane passing through the central axis of the tub body 400.

It will be appreciated that when bucket body 400 is a circular barrel with opening 403 forward, bucket body 400 is tallest at the vertical center plane, and the height of bucket body 400 gradually decreases toward the left-right direction. Because the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230 have flexible structures and can be arranged in a flat shape, the heat absorbing member 220 and the heating member 230 are arranged at the position close to the vertical central plane of the barrel 400, and the two parts with larger sizes, namely the fan 250 and the washing and filtering assembly 300, are arranged at the two sides of the barrel 400, so that the characteristics of the space above the barrel 400 are fully utilized, and the washing and filtering assembly 300 and the drying system 200 can be accommodated on the premise that the whole size of the box 100 is not large.

Specifically, the detergent box 320, the filter 240, the heat absorbing member 220, the heating member 230, and the fan 250 are sequentially disposed from left to right along a horizontal direction, and the detergent box 320 and the filter 240 to be drawn are located at the leftmost side, so that the drawing port 104 is not required to be disposed at the right side, and a control panel, a display screen, and the like may be disposed at the right half of the front side of the cabinet 100. Thus, the front side of the box 100 and the area above the barrel 400 can be fully distributed.

Further, the fan 250 is a centrifugal fan and is disposed in the air supply pipe 216, and the fan 250 is a centrifugal fan, so that the characteristic that the centrifugal fan changes the wind direction by 90 degrees can be utilized to turn the airflow in the air duct member 210 by a large margin, and the wind resistance is reduced.
