圖3是實施形態中的滾筒式洗衣機之襯墊構件周邊的放大截面圖。圖4A是圖3中的A箭頭視角圖。圖4B是圖3中的B箭頭視角圖。Fig. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the periphery of the gasket member of the drum-type washing machine in the embodiment. Fig. 4A is a view from the arrow A in Fig. 3. FIG. 4B is a view from arrow B in FIG. 3.

另外，關於變形來進行密封的唇部18a，是顯示變形前的自然狀態。又，在圖3中，旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸是在圖的上方，幾乎朝左右方向延伸地存在。In addition, the lip portion 18a that is deformed for sealing shows a natural state before being deformed. In addition, in FIG. 3, the rotating shaft of the rotating drum 10 is at the upper side of the figure, and exists almost extending in the left-right direction.

如圖3、圖4A、圖4B所示，襯墊構件18是由以下所形成：圓筒部18b，從正面板17之正面板開口部17a朝後方延伸；唇部18a，形成於圓筒部18b之前端部的內周；及具有可撓性的膨出部18c，藉由從圓筒部18b之後端附近朝前方且朝外側折返而膨出於外周側，且與水槽開口部9a連結。As shown in Figures 3, 4A, and 4B, the cushion member 18 is formed by the following: a cylindrical portion 18b extending from the front panel opening 17a of the front panel 17 toward the rear; and a lip 18a formed on the cylindrical portion The inner periphery of the front end of 18b; and the flexible bulging portion 18c, which swells out of the outer periphery by turning forward and outward from the vicinity of the rear end of the cylindrical portion 18b, and is connected to the water tank opening 9a.

唇部18a是突出於正面板17之正面板開口部17a的內周側，且是在關上蓋體16的狀態下，與蓋體16之內側的內蓋16a的外周面抵接來水密性地進行密封，防止水及蒸氣從蓋體16之外周漏出。The lip 18a protrudes from the inner peripheral side of the front panel opening 17a of the front panel 17, and when the cover 16 is closed, it comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the inner cover 16a inside the cover 16 to be watertight Sealing is performed to prevent water and steam from leaking from the outer periphery of the cover 16.

在襯墊構件18之圓筒部18b的內周側上，在旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b的附近形成有截面三角形的凸肋部18d。凸肋部18d是在滾筒開口部10b的附近凸出成比滾筒開口部10b之內周還接近旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸，並且離旋轉滾筒10較近的面形成相對於旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸成為垂直的垂直面部18e，且離正面板開口部17a較近的面形成隨著成為內周而朝後方傾斜的傾斜面部18f。又，凸肋部18d在本實施形態中是將從圓筒部18b的內面起算的高度e設定為10mm。凸肋部18d的高度e的10mm是設定為在關上蓋體16的狀態下不接觸內蓋16a而具有間隙的高度。又，凸肋部18d是從旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b離開尺寸h左右而設置。尺寸h在本實施形態中是設定為例如10mm。On the inner peripheral side of the cylindrical portion 18b of the cushion member 18, a triangular cross-sectional convex rib 18d is formed in the vicinity of the drum opening 10b of the rotating drum 10. The convex rib 18d protrudes near the drum opening 10b so as to be closer to the rotation axis of the rotating drum 10 than the inner circumference of the drum opening 10b, and the surface closer to the rotating drum 10 forms the rotation axis with respect to the rotating drum 10 The vertical surface 18e becomes a vertical surface, and the surface closer to the front panel opening 17a forms an inclined surface 18f that is inclined rearward as the inner circumference becomes the inner circumference. In addition, in the present embodiment, the height e of the rib 18d from the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 18b is set to 10 mm. 10 mm of the height e of the rib 18d is set to have a gap without contacting the inner cover 16a when the cover 16 is closed. Moreover, 18 d of convex ribs are separated from the drum opening 10b of the rotating drum 10 by about the dimension h, and are provided. The dimension h is set to, for example, 10 mm in this embodiment.

凸肋部18d是形成為在關上蓋體16的狀態下不接觸內蓋16a。凸肋部18d的前端部與內蓋16a間的最小間隙i在本實施形態中是設定為10mm。藉此，凸肋部18d會在開關蓋體16時接觸到而對使用者造成不協調感，或是不對唇部18a與內蓋16a間的密封性能造成影響。The convex rib 18d is formed so as not to contact the inner cover 16a when the cover 16 is closed. The minimum gap i between the front end of the rib 18d and the inner cover 16a is set to 10 mm in this embodiment. Thereby, the protruding rib 18d may touch when opening and closing the cover 16 and cause discomfort to the user, or not affect the sealing performance between the lip 18a and the inner cover 16a.

由於洗滌衣物會藉由自身重量而落下至下方，因此凸肋部18d不必形成於襯墊構件18之圓筒部18b的整個圓周，如圖4B所示地，只要至少形成於相當於襯墊構件18之下半圓的範圍即可，前述襯墊構件18之下半圓是與旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b之下半圓相向的範圍。Since the laundry will fall down under its own weight, the rib 18d does not need to be formed on the entire circumference of the cylindrical portion 18b of the cushion member 18, as shown in FIG. 4B, as long as it is formed at least on the equivalent of the cushion member The range of the semicircle below 18 is sufficient, and the semicircle below the spacer member 18 is the range facing the semicircle below the drum opening 10b of the rotating drum 10.

凸肋部18d在中央部分的最下部中，從正面觀看是分割為左右而形成，且在最下部分形成間隙部18g。藉此，防止在洗滌結束後成為水仍積存於凸肋部18d的情形，並防止在洗滌結束後取出洗滌衣物時，水再度附著於洗滌衣物的情形。The convex rib 18d is formed in the lowermost part of the central part by being divided into left and right when viewed from the front, and a gap part 18g is formed in the lowermost part. Thereby, it is prevented that the water still accumulates in the rib 18d after the washing is finished, and it is prevented that the water is attached to the washing clothes again when the washing clothes are taken out after the washing is finished.

以下，針對如以上所構成之滾筒式洗衣機，說明動作、作用。Hereinafter, the operation and effect of the drum-type washing machine constructed as above will be described.

圖5是實施形態中的滾筒式洗衣機的洗滌衣物乘上襯墊構件上之狀態的截面圖。Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the drum-type washing machine in the embodiment in which the laundry of the drum type washing machine is mounted on the cushion member.

當以額定容量進行洗滌運轉或乾燥運轉時，旋轉滾筒10內是成為因洗滌衣物而全滿的狀態。因此，如圖5所示，在運轉中，小孩用的襪子等小件洗滌衣物19從旋轉滾筒10朝前方側飛出時，小件洗滌衣物19會要進入內蓋16a與襯墊構件18之間。When the washing operation or the drying operation is performed at the rated capacity, the interior of the rotary drum 10 is in a state of being completely filled with laundry. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, during operation, when small laundry items 19 such as socks for children fly out from the rotating drum 10 toward the front side, the small laundry items 19 will enter between the inner cover 16a and the cushion member 18. between.

此時，在襯墊構件18之圓筒部18b的內周側，在旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b的附近，且設成比滾筒開口部10b之內周還接近旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸的截面三角形狀的凸肋部18d成為防護壁，防止小件洗滌衣物19進入內蓋16a與襯墊構件18之間的深處的情形。特別是，由於凸肋部18d是離旋轉滾筒10較近的面形成為相對於旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸成為垂直的垂直面部18e，因此可以強力防止小件洗滌衣物19的進入。At this time, on the inner peripheral side of the cylindrical portion 18b of the gasket member 18, in the vicinity of the drum opening 10b of the rotating drum 10, it is provided closer to the rotating shaft of the rotating drum 10 than the inner periphery of the drum opening 10b. The protruding rib 18d with a triangular cross-sectional shape serves as a protective wall, preventing small pieces of laundry 19 from entering the deep part between the inner cover 16a and the cushion member 18. In particular, since the convex rib 18d is formed on the surface closer to the rotating drum 10 as a vertical surface 18e perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating drum 10, the entry of small laundry 19 can be strongly prevented.

並且，當小件洗滌衣物19的一部份接觸可動部即旋轉滾筒10時，會在旋轉滾筒10的旋轉時被拉進旋轉滾筒10側，而可以得到從襯墊構件18移動至旋轉滾筒10側的作用效果。In addition, when a part of the small laundry 19 touches the movable part, that is, the rotating drum 10, it will be pulled into the rotating drum 10 side when the rotating drum 10 rotates, and it can be obtained from the pad member 18 to move to the rotating drum 10. Side effect.

另外，在本實施形態中，凸肋部18d雖然是從旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b離開尺寸h(例如10mm)左右而設置，但即使設於襯墊構件18之離旋轉滾筒10之滾筒開口部10b最近的位置，也可以得到與上述同樣的作用效果。In addition, in the present embodiment, although the rib 18d is provided at a distance of about the dimension h (for example, 10 mm) from the drum opening 10b of the rotating drum 10, even if it is provided on the cushion member 18 away from the drum opening of the rotating drum 10 The closest position of the portion 10b can also achieve the same effects as described above.

如以上地，在本實施形態中，連結於正面板開口部17a與水槽開口部9a之間，且由橡膠等彈性材料所形成之環形筒狀的襯墊構件18設有：圓筒部18b，從正面板開口部17a朝後方延伸；唇部18a，形成於圓筒部18b之前端部的內周，且在關上蓋體16時抵接內蓋16a來水密性地密封；及可撓性的膨出部18c，藉由從圓筒部18b之後端附近朝前方且朝外側折返而膨出於外周側，且與水槽開口部9a連結。此外，還設為以下構成：在滾筒開口部10b的附近，突出成比滾筒開口部10b之內周還接近旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸，並且離旋轉滾筒10較近的面是形成相對於旋轉滾筒10之旋轉軸成為垂直的垂直面部18e。As described above, in the present embodiment, the ring-shaped cylindrical cushion member 18 connected between the front panel opening 17a and the water tank opening 9a and formed of an elastic material such as rubber is provided with a cylindrical portion 18b, Extending from the front panel opening 17a toward the rear; a lip 18a formed on the inner periphery of the front end of the cylindrical portion 18b, and abutting against the inner cover 16a when the cover 16 is closed for water-tight sealing; and flexible The bulging part 18c expands to the outer peripheral side by turning back toward the front and outward from the vicinity of the rear end of the cylindrical part 18b, and is connected to the water tank opening 9a.
