MULTIFUNCTIONAL INTEGRATED CLEANER UNIT MACHINE

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a cleaning appliance for washing and drying clothes, and particularly to a compound cleaning machine with a washing basin.

2. Description of the Related Art

[0002] People put on and put off his/her clothes depending on transformation of the seasons. Generally, people will wear more clothes in autumn or winter, and thus more clothes will be washed by a full-automatic washing machine and dried by a drum type cloth dryer in these seasons. In contrast, in spring and summer the people's clothes will be thinner, thus people simply wash the small and thin clothes in the washing basin, and then dry the clothes by hanging them in open air. This will be energy-saving and convenient. Due to this, the urban households are typically equipped with appliances such as a washing machine, a cloth dryer and a washing basin to use in daily cleaning.

[0003] However, the washing machine, the drum type cloth dryer as well as the washing basin currently sold in market are independent from each other, and thus are deployed in different areas in the housing. Therefore, they occupy a relatively large space. In the meantime, water inlet and outlet pipes of the washing machine and the washing basin will be also independently deployed, thus entailing the piping arrangement be complex. As for those residents having smaller space, such defects become more outstanding and obvious.

[0004] The same situation happens at some student hostels where the washing machine, the drum type cloth dryer and the washing basin are similarly deployed independently each other. The students are in their young age, and they do not have too many laundries to be washed. In the case the clothes are rained or sweated due to outdoor sports, it is desirable to change and wash the wet clothes immediately, and wear it after drying. Under the circumstance where a dormitory or an apartment is shared by several students, even if they want to buy the conventional washing machines, they will have a big problem since the washing machine, the drum type cloth dryer and the washing basin occupy too much space in the relatively narrow dorm.

[0005] It can be seen from the above that the home appliance currently available from the market generally has only one single-function. It is difficult for the consumer to find one household electrical appliance which meets the needs of the whole family or all the people in the dorm or apartment as mentioned above. Therefore, it is desirable to reasonably and appropriately recombine the individual household electrical appliances to a compound multifunctional electrical appliance. The mentality or concept behind this trend also relates to saving energy and resources by recombining, integrating and harmonizing the products which are commercially available.

[0006] For this end, one washing machine with a washing basin has been proposed out, which is described in Patent issued number CN 2832876Y, titled "washing machine with washing disc mounting structure". This patent discloses a washing basin hinged at an opening of an upper part of the washing machine body. In order to put into or take out the clothes, the washing basin is uncovered to expose the inlet of the washing machine. Another type of this washing machine is described in Patent issued number CN 2464758Y, titled "washing machine with washing table basin", which mainly employs a drum type washing machine with a front openable door. A washing table basin is provided on the top of the drum type washing machine, and both of them share one common sewer. Compared with the conventional home appliances, the compound machine integrated with the washing basin saves space in some degree and increases capacity of the habitable space in a dorm or an apartment.

[0007] However, the above compound machine incorporating two units still has the following defects: as for the former one, the usage of the washing basin and the washing machine is restricted and adversely affected by each other in some degree, and the bottom of the washing basin is attached to the water outlet pipe. If the washing basin is repeatedly rotated, on one hand, it will hinder the free rotation of the washing basin; on the other hand, it may damage the water outlet pipe.

[0008] As for the latter one, for one thing, there exists a drawback that the surface of the washing table is too high and the usage of the compound machine is restricted. The reason partially resides in the following: during the spin-drying process, the drum type washing machine is rotating at a high speed, in order to reduce the vibration generated by this high-speed rotation, a column-like shock absorption post is provided below the rotating drum, and a weight mass having a certain thickness is attached to the upper side of the outer drum. Thus, the overall height of the drum type washing machine is defined taking into consideration of the above described structure, and will increase as the operation capacity increases.

[0009] A survey shows that the minimum drum type washing machine sold by Haier Company at 2007 (washing machine Model XQG50-E700 without drying function, Model XQG50-HDB1000 with drying function, and the operation capacities of both are 5.0 Kg) has a height of 850mm. A depth of the washing basin commonly used in daily life is 130-180mm, a height of the outlet connector at the bottom of the washing basin is about 60mm. The overall height of the structure combined by the above three utensils is between 930-1030mm, which highly exceeds the common height "800-850mm" of the washing table used by an ordinary adult. Needless to say, this combination is not suitable for usage of the student.

[0010] Secondly, for purpose of alleviating the above defects, the primary task is to reduce the overall height of the drum type washing machine, i.e., to reduce the diameter of the rotating drum. Typically, the drum type washing machine performs cleaning of the clothes by means of dropping the clothes from a height and pulsating it to the water during a rolling process. If the rotating drum is too small in diameter, it is difficult for the clothes to roll in the drum so that the cleaning efficiency is significantly affected, thus the benefit of the drum type washing machine is lost. Thirdly, the cost of the drum type washing machine is high, the cleanness ratio of the drum type washing machine is lower than that of the pulsator type washing machine in terms of time and energy consumption.

[0011] Moreover, a patent US 3,331,226A discloses a laundry apparatus, which is a composite unit. In particular, the composite unit includes a washer positioned alongside a dryer on a base plate or drain pan resting on a support surface, such as floor F, and a sink provided above he dryer. Further, documents JP 2002 209775A, GB 1 032 241A, FR 2 731 720, US 2007/151309A and CN 1 586 380A disclose relevant structure arrangement about a compound multifunctional cleaning machine.

[0012] For meeting the demand of the people's life, an advanced model of the drum type washing machine having drying function has been sold on the market. Although this kind washing machine has the advantage of occupying smaller area and convenient usage, it only has one common storage drum. Due to such structure, on one hand, it is impossible to wash and dry the clothes at the same time, so that people have to spend more time on washing and drying under the same condition; on the other hand, as for the drum type washing machine with drying function, when the clothes is washed, dehydrated and to be dried in the rotating drum, the hot air therefrom dries the clothes while additionally drying the water droplet remained on the clothes storage drum after dehydrating, the water droplets not being discharged away within the water storage drum as well as the accumulated water being not drained. Therefore, more time and more energy are needed during the drying process, and thus resulting in that the cost of usage of the washing machine is very high. Moreover, due to the fact that the structure of the drum type washing machine is complex itself, if the drying function is to be recombined, the manufacturing cost will be high and price of the machine goes unattainable. As such, this product will be catered only for the high-end consumers which are less sensitive to the high price.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Bearing in minds the disadvantages in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a compound multifunctional cleaning machine which occupies less space, has low manufacturing cost, has a suitable height for use and the multifunction of the compound machine can be utilized at the same time while the compound machine is energy saving.

[0014] According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided a compound multifunctional cleaning machine, comprising: a case body; a washing basin; and a washing machine body disposed within the case body, wherein a water outlet manifold is disposed within the case body, and communicates with a drain hole and an overflow hole of the washing basin and a water outlet port of a water outlet pipe of the washing machine body; wherein a frame is provided on an upper part of the case body, a cover covering the washing machine body is hinged to the frame, a water inlet connector of the washing machine body is deployed on the frame, a drum type cloth-dryer body located at one side of the washing machine body, is disposed within the case body, a front openable door corresponding to the drum type cloth dryer body is disposed at the front side of the case body, and the washing basin is located at the frame above the drum type cloth dryer body, wherein watertight flanges are disposed at an upper edge of the washing basin or the frame around the washing basin, and several watertight flanges are arranged from inside to outside.

[0015] Obviously, the watertight flange can be disposed at least at one side of the upper edge or the frame. Alternatively, several watertight flanges can be disposed on the upper edge or the frame from inside to outside. With such arrangement, it can prevent water from flowing out so that the structure and the use property can satisfy the safety requirements.

[0016] In one embodiment, a control switch of the washing machine body are deployed on the frame.

[0017] As an improvement to the present invention, a drawer type storage box is disposed in the case body between the washing basin and the drum type cloth dryer body. The storage box is used to store some toiletry articles. Alternatively, a storage shelf is secured on the frame uprightly located at the back upper position of the washing basin. This storage shelf can also be used for storage of some toiletries or the clothes to be washed. These enable the compound machine of the present invention to have more compact structure and more full functions.

[0018] Preferably, a water baffler is fixed on the surface of the case body above the front openable door. It is preferable to arrange the control switch panel of the drum type cloth dryer body at the case body below the water baffler. In this way, it is effective to prevent water from flowing into the drum type cloth dryer body or the control switch panel. Likewise, a watertight flange is disposed at an upper edge of the washing basin or the frame around the washing basin.

[0019] It is noted that the control switch panel of the drum type cloth dryer body can be individually or independently disposed on the frame. Alternatively, the control switch panel and the control switch of the washing machine body can be unitarily and integrally disposed on the same control panel.

[0020] In practice, a water pipe is configured to be in the case body and connect the water inlet pipe of the washing basin and the water inlet pipe of the washing machine body. The water inlet connector of the washing machine body is connected to the exterior water supply, so as to supply water to the washing basin and the washing machine at the same time. It is apparent that this not only saves the cost for connection, but also facilitates usage of the compound machine.

[0021] In all the above technical solutions, the washing basin is made from stainless steel plate by stamping forming or from engineering plastic material by injection molding. Thus, such washing basin is simple in structure and is easy to be manufactured. The washing basin can also be formed by combining an inner layer and an outer layer, wherein the outer layer is made from plastic material by injection molding or from metal by sheet metal forming (for example, sheet metal stamping forming), the inner layer is made from stainless steel plate or ceramic or glass to obtain a water-contact layer, the inner layer is embedded into the outer layer, and is sealed and secured by a seal ring/seal sings and a bolt/bolts to form a unitary piece. With the above variations, the compound machine meets the different requirements of different users. In addition, the washing basin and the frame are made from the same stainless steel plate by stamping forming or from the same plastic material by injection molding to form a unitary piece. By adopting the unitary piece, it is more convenient to assemble the compound machine, and can prevent water from leaking out.

[0022] According to the invention an instant water heating device is included within the case body to supply hot water to the washing basin and the washing machine body (i.e., full-automatic washing machine body). A cold water inlet hole of the instant water heating device is communicated to the water inlet connector by a water pipe. It is desirable that the control panel of the instant water heating device can be individually or independently disposed on the frame. Alternatively, the control panel and the control switch of the washing machine body can be unitarily and integrally disposed on the same control panel. In the present embodiment, the instant water heating device is configured to heat object by electrical heating. That is, cold water which flows through the housing of the instant water heating device, is instantly or rapidly heated to obtain hot water at a desirable temperature, by operating the corresponding switches on the control panel. This hot water can be simultaneously or respectively supplied to the washing basin and the washing machine body for use.

[0023] All power cords of the washing machine body, the drum type cloth dryer body and the instant water heating device can be connected to the same power source plug to reduce the number of the plug for the home appliance. This enables to conveniently operate the compound machine and also reduces the arrangement of the exterior power source plug.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the washing machine, the washing basin and the cloth dryer of the present invention are inventively combined to form one integral piece in accordance with the national safety standards, the present invention has the following advantages: (1) this not only meets the demands of occupying less space, having low manufacturing cost and full functions as required by the consumers, but also achieves a desirable height by which people may wash their faces or hands etc, by well adjusting and matching the heights of the cloth dryer and the washing basin; (2) the washing and drying functions can be implemented simultaneously as the units for them are separately or independently arranged, thus fulfilling the objectives of time-saving, being quick and energy saving; and (3) with an integral structure, it is not only convenient to be installed, but also has a larger area to seat on the ground as a whole. Accordingly, the vibration and noise generated when operating the washing machine and the drum type cloth dryer will be reduced, and likewise, the transporting cost is reduced; and (4) the overall style of the compound machine is unified to improve the indoor decoration of the house.
