In addition, the present invention provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but one of ordinary skill in the art may recognize applications of other processes and/or uses of other materials.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a washing machine 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a body 12, a first connecting device 14 and a second connecting device 16, wherein the first connecting device 14 is fixed on the ground, the second connecting device 16 connects the body 12 and the first connecting device 14, and the second connecting device 16 is used for damping vibration. The first and

second connection devices

14 and 16 serve to directly transmit vibration of the body 12 to the ground to reduce noise of the washing machine 10.

In the washing machine 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention, the vibration of the body 12 is directly transmitted to the ground by using the first connecting device 14 and the second connecting device 16, so that the vibration and noise of the washing machine 10 are effectively reduced.

Specifically, the first connecting device 14 directly transmits the vibration of the tub, the motor, and the like of the washing machine 10 to the ground, thereby reducing the overall vibration of the washing machine 10 and ultimately achieving the noise reduction effect. The second connecting means 16 employs a device having a superior vibration damping effect to reduce vibration of the laundry 10 and thus noise.

In the present embodiment, the first connecting means 14 is a suction cup.

In this way, the first connecting device 14 is a suction cup, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

Of course, the first connecting means 14 is not limited to a suction cup, and may be other connecting means, such as fixing the first connecting means 14 to the ground by a screw, or adhering the first connecting means 14 to the ground by an adhesive substance.

In this embodiment, the material of the suction cup is rubber or silicone.

Therefore, the sucker is made of rubber or silica gel, and has a good vibration reduction effect.

In the present embodiment, the second connecting means 16 is a spring or a damper.

In this way, the second connecting device 16 adopts a spring or a damper, and has a good vibration damping effect.

Of course, the second connecting device 16 is not limited to a spring or a damper, but may be other connecting devices with better damping effect.

In this embodiment, the second connecting means 16 is provided with a sensor 18 for weighing.

Thus, the sensor 18 can effectively weigh the laundry in the body 12 and detect the water level state.

In the present embodiment, the sensor 18 is a photosensor, a pressure sensor, or a hall sensor. Of course, the sensor 18 is not limited to a photoelectric sensor, a pressure sensor, or a hall sensor, but may be another type of sensor. The sensor 18 may be fixed at any position of the second connecting means 16.

Specifically, the fuzzy weighing of the prior art washing machine is inaccurate, but the washing machine 10 of the present invention detects the weight of the body 12 through the sensor 18 disposed on the second connecting device 16, and then determines the weight of the laundry to be dried and the water inlet state of the washing machine 10, so as to measure the water for the laundry to be dried, and the water is drained, i.e., removed, and then stops. Therefore, the clothes drying device can accurately weigh the dry clothes, can achieve a good washing effect by measuring the clothes and fixing the water, and can not waste water due to the adoption of an overhigh water level. The washing machine 10 is more stable in operation, and does not need a tub switch, a water level sensor, and the like, thereby reducing material costs.

In the present embodiment, the first connecting device 14 and the second connecting device 16 are damping assemblies, and the washing machine 10 includes at least one set of damping assemblies, and preferably, the washing machine 10 includes three sets of damping assemblies, and the three sets of damping assemblies are disposed at equal angles at the bottom of the body 12.

Therefore, the washing machine 10 comprises three sets of vibration reduction assemblies, the washing machine 10 can be placed stably, and vibration reduction and noise reduction effects are good.

Specifically, the washing machine 10 is connected to the body 12 and the first connecting means 14 by the second connecting means 16, and the first connecting means 14 is fixed to the ground after the washing machine 10 is put in place. Since all noise is generated due to vibration, noise can be effectively reduced by reducing vibration. In this way, a portion of the vibration is directly transmitted to the ground through the first connecting device 14 and the second connecting device 16, so that the vibration and noise of the washing machine 10 can be effectively reduced.

In the description of the present specification, reference to the description of the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "illustrative embodiments", "examples", "specific examples", or "some examples", etc., means that a particular feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
