Problems solved by technology

But said structure also has the following defects: 1. The lower space of the control panel base is insufficient. The washing machine is provided with a detergent container in the control panel base, which takes up a large lower space. With the progress of technology, the function of the existing washing machine More and more, corresponding to the need to install more electrical components, the space under the control panel base is insufficient for the installation of multi-functional electronic modules; 2. Users need to inject detergent, resulting in excessive detergent injection, overflowing from the detergent injection port; 3. , The detergent inlet is easy to accumulate dust and become dirty for a long time, and it is not easy to clean

Embodiment 1

[0053] Such as figure 1 with figure 2 As shown, the ventilation unit 13 described in this embodiment includes an opening 14 and a sealing cover 15 installed on the opening 14. The side surface of the sealing cover 15 facing the opening 14, that is, the lower surface of the sealing cover 15 is provided with a The opening 14 is a ventilation structure that communicates the inside and outside of the box body 11 .

[0054] Preferably, the opening 14 is arranged on the box body 11, and the sealing cover 15 can be opened and closed to cover and install on the opening 14. One side of the sealing cover 15 is connected with the box body 11 through a hinge part. The sealing cover 15 of example is connected with the box body by the connecting rod 150 that is movably plugged in respectively on the sealing cover 15 and the side wall of the box body 11;

[0055] Preferably, at least one claw 10 is provided on the surface of the sealing cover 15 facing the opening 14 to engage with the op...

Embodiment 2

[0057] The ventilation structure described in this embodiment is configured as a ventilation channel 131 extending from the opening 14 to the outer peripheral direction of the sealing cover 15 . Preferably, the ventilation channel 131 is integrally formed on the lower surface of the sealing cover 15 (see image 3 ).

[0058] Further, the ventilation channel is a groove structure opened on the lower surface of the sealing cover. Alternatively, the ventilation channel is formed by the cooperation of the support provided on the lower surface of the sealing cover and supported on the side wall of the box around the opening (not shown in the figure).

[0059] Alternatively, the ventilation channel is a conduit independently installed on the surface of the sealing cover facing the opening, one end communicates with the opening, and the other end faces the outer periphery of the sealing cover and communicates with the outside world (not shown in the figure).

Embodiment 3

[0061] Such as image 3 with Figure 4 As shown, the lower surface of the sealing cover 15 described in this embodiment is provided with a sealing rib 151 , and the sealing rib 151 cooperates with the side wall 111 of the box body around the opening 14 to form a ventilation channel 131 . The side wall 111 of the box body around the opening 14 is designed to be concave, so that the sealing cover 15 can be embedded in the concave.

[0062] The sealing rib 151 includes a part of the first rib 1511 that is set near the edge of the lower surface of the sealing cover 15 and is supported on the side wall 111 of the box body around the opening, and another part from the first rib 1511 toward the center of the sealing cover 15. The second rib 1512 that shrinks and is located above the opening 14 is supported by the first rib 1511 through the vertical gap between the second rib 1512 and the edge of the opening 14 so that the lower surface of the sealing cover 15 is in contact with the ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an external liquid storage box and a household appliance. The external liquid storage box comprises an internally hollow box body for accommodating liquid and also comprises abreathable unit which balances the air pressure inside the hollow box body with that of the outside. The breathable unit comprises an opening and a sealing cover mounted on the opening, one side surface of the sealing cover facing the opening is provided with a ventilation structure, and the ventilation structure communicates with the inside and the outside of the box body through the opening. Thepresent invention also provides the household appliance which is provided with a communication unit that is quickly connected to an external accessory, and the communication unit is mated with and connected to the external liquid storage box. According to the household appliance of the invention, an external detachable liquid storage box assembly manner is employed, so the maintenance of the liquid storage box is simple and convenient, a phenomenon that a clogging problem and the like cannot be solved is effectively avoided, the structure is simple, the disassembly is convenient, and replacement and cleaning are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to an external liquid storage box and a household appliance equipped with the liquid storage box. Background technique [0002] Now there are a variety of washing machines from various manufacturers in the market, and there are more and more functions. With the development of artificial intelligence, there are higher and higher requirements for the operation convenience and reliability of detergent injection. In terms of operation convenience, Although there have been smart washing machines on the market that store a large amount of laundry detergent at one time for multiple washing cycles, which reduces the user's operation steps to a certain extent, but users still need to go to the market to buy bags and bottles. For laundry detergents with inconsistent packaging methods, an appropriate amount of detergent is irregularly injected into the detergent storage tank, an inherent pa...
