Washing machine

Abstract

The invention relates to a washing machine. An inner cylinder is installed inside the washing machine shell and a drain outlet is arranged on the inner cylinder, and a drain valve is installed at thedrain outlet; the washing machine is also provided with a fixed position locking mechanism that rotates the inner cylinder to a fixed drainage position and fixes the inner cylinder, a valve core opening mechanism for opening the drain valve after the inner cylinder is rotated to the fixed drainage position in order to open the drain valve to drain the washing water in the inner cylinder out when the washing machine drains, and the inner cylinder rotates to the fixed drainage position, at least one dewatering outlet is arranged on the inner side wall of the inner cylinder, the dewatering outletis provided with a dewatering valve and the valve core of the dewatering valve is connected with the inner cylinder through a limit spring, and the valve core closes the dewatering outlet under the function of the limit spring; when the inner cylinder is dewatering, the rotating centrifugal force overcomes the spring force of the limit spring to push the valve core to move and open the dewateringvalve to drain. Through the above-mentioned setting, the effects of the inner cylinder seal in the process of inner cylinder rotation and the opening of dewatering valve and / or the draw off valve tonormally drain the containing water in the inner cylinder during dewatering are achieved; at the same time, the outer cylinder is no longer required to be fitted, the volume of the inner cylinder is increased, and the washing capacity of the washing machine is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of washing machines, and in particular relates to a washing machine with only a rotatable inner cylinder capable of holding water. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, a drum washing machine generally includes an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder that fit each other, the outer cylinder is sealed to hold water, the inner cylinder is used to hold clothes, and the inner cylinder is rotated to beat and wash the clothes; at the same time, the inner cylinder is Set the dehydration hole so that the water in the outer cylinder flows into the inner cylinder through the dehydration hole to soak the clothes in the inner cylinder, the water in the inner cylinder flows out to the outer cylinder through the dehydration hole, and the moisture on the clothes in the inner cylinder is dehydrated when the inner cylinder rotates at high speed The hole is discharged to the outer cylinder to realize the purpose of w...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, since the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder are interfitted with each other, dirt is easy to accumulate between the inner and outer cylinders during the use of the washing machine; at the same time, because the inner and outer cylinders are intertwined, the user cannot clean the outer wall of the inner cylinder and the inner wall of the outer cylinder, which increases the number of bacteria in the washing machine , reducing the washing efficiency of the washing machine and the cleanliness of the clothes after washing

[0004] Simultaneously, in the above-mentioned existing washing machine, because the inner cylinder is equipped with an outer cylinder, the washing process of the washing machine is to beat and wash the clothes through the rotation of the inner cylinder, so that the washing capacity of the washing machine is based on the inner cylinder, so that the internal space utilization rate of the washing machine is Low, unable to expand the washing capacity of the washing machine on the existing basis
