基台57設置於握持部51之背面。中心部55是設置成從基台57延伸。並且，中心部55是以長邊方向之前端朝向上方傾斜的方式來形成為板狀。The base 57 is disposed on the back of the grip portion 51 . The central portion 55 is provided to extend from the base 57 . Furthermore, the central portion 55 is formed in a plate shape such that the front end in the longitudinal direction is inclined upward.

第1圓柱53是以中心部55為中心，並形成為從中心部55向左右延伸。第1圓柱53是從中心部55到另一端朝向上方平緩地傾斜。The first column 53 is centered on the center portion 55 and is formed to extend left and right from the center portion 55 . The first column 53 slopes gently upward from the center portion 55 to the other end.

在第1圓柱53的左右端部，朝向上方延伸地配設有第2圓柱54。第2圓柱54與第1圓柱53成為一體並形成ㄇ字(U字)。另外，所謂「ㄇ字(U字)」並不僅是完全ㄇ字(U字)的情況，還包含大致ㄇ字(大致U字)的情況。構成ㄇ字狀(U字狀)的第1圓柱53及第2圓柱54是以預定的間隔排列複數個，並且是涵蓋中心部55之長邊方向整體來配置。藉此，中心部55、第1圓柱53、及第2圓柱54在整體上是構成了肋骨狀的構造。如以上說明地，第1圓柱53是從中心部55在水平方向(左右方向)上延伸。另外，第1圓柱53隨著遠離中心部55而朝向上方(鉛直方向)傾斜亦可。第2圓柱54是從第1圓柱53的前端朝向上方延伸。At the left and right ends of the first column 53 , the second column 54 is arranged to extend upward. The second cylinder 54 is integrated with the first cylinder 53 to form a U-shape (U-shape). In addition, "ㄇ character (U character)" does not only include the case of the complete ㄇ character (U character) but also the case of the approximate ㄇ character (rough U character). A plurality of the first cylinder 53 and the second cylinder 54 constituting a U-shape (U-shape) are arranged at predetermined intervals, and are arranged covering the entire lengthwise direction of the central portion 55 . Thereby, the center part 55, the 1st cylinder 53, and the 2nd cylinder 54 are comprised as a rib-shaped structure as a whole. As described above, the first column 53 extends in the horizontal direction (left-right direction) from the center portion 55 . In addition, the first column 53 may incline upward (vertical direction) as it moves away from the central portion 55 . The second column 54 extends upward from the front end of the first column 53 .

肋件56形成於中心部55之長邊方向，且位於中心部55的中心線上。並且，肋件56是向上方延伸。肋件56具有將流入的水進行整流的作用，並且具有擔保過濾部52之強度的作用。The ribs 56 are formed in the longitudinal direction of the center portion 55 and are located on the center line of the center portion 55 . Also, the rib 56 extends upward. The ribs 56 have the function of rectifying the inflow of water, and also have the function of securing the strength of the filter part 52 .

其次，使用圖5、圖6A、及圖6B，針對本發明的動作、作用來進行說明。Next, the operation and function of the present invention will be described using FIG. 5 , FIG. 6A , and FIG. 6B .

圖5是顯示在同洗衣機之殼體構件裝設了過濾構件之狀態下的洗滌水之流動的示意圖。圖6A是同洗衣機之過濾部捕捉了異物的情況的示意圖。圖6B是從同洗衣機之過濾部將異物除去的情況的示意圖。Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the flow of washing water in a state where a filter member is installed with a casing member of the washing machine. FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram of a situation in which foreign objects are captured by the filter unit of the washing machine. Fig. 6B is a schematic diagram showing the state of removing foreign matter from the filter unit of the same washing machine.

將水槽11內的水排水時，排水旋塞18會成為開啟狀態。如此一來，水槽11內之洗滌水會透過排水管19流入殼體流入路61，而到達裝設於殼體構件60之內部的過濾部52。洗滌水會如圖5中之箭頭B所示地通過過濾部52，並透過殼體排出路62及排水軟管35朝外部排出。When draining the water in the water tank 11, the drain cock 18 will be in an open state. In this way, the washing water in the water tank 11 flows into the casing inflow path 61 through the drain pipe 19 , and reaches the filter part 52 installed inside the casing member 60 . The washing water passes through the filter unit 52 as shown by the arrow B in FIG. 5 , and is discharged to the outside through the casing discharge path 62 and the drain hose 35 .

另一方面，在利用循環泵時，排水旋塞18會成為關閉狀態。當使循環泵21動作時，水會藉由循環泵21的動作而從循環泵連接部63被吸引，並朝過濾部52送入。被送入之洗滌水在經過過濾部52後，會如圖5中之箭頭C所示地通過循環泵連接部63，並再次被供給至水槽11。如此地使洗滌水在以過濾部52過濾後進行循環，藉此便可以抑制水的使用量並提高洗淨能力。On the other hand, when the circulation pump is used, the drain cock 18 is in a closed state. When the circulation pump 21 is operated, water is sucked from the circulation pump connection part 63 by the operation of the circulation pump 21 and sent to the filter part 52 . The sent washing water passes through the filter part 52 , passes through the circulation pump connection part 63 as shown by the arrow C in FIG. 5 , and is supplied to the water tank 11 again. By circulating the washing water after being filtered by the filter unit 52 in this way, the amount of water used can be suppressed and the washing ability can be improved.

如此，即便在排水的情況下，且即便在使用循環泵的情況下，洗滌水所包含的異物70仍會藉由過濾部52而被捕捉。具體而言，從中心部55前端部之上方落下的洗滌水會一邊朝右方移動，一邊從第2圓柱54與鄰接之第2圓柱54的間隙或是第1圓柱53與鄰接之第1圓柱53的間隙排出至外部。棉絨或毛髪等異物70在通過鄰接之第2圓柱54與第2圓柱54的間隙或是鄰接之第1圓柱53與第1圓柱53的間隙時，會纏繞在第2圓柱54或第1圓柱53。若對異物70置之不理，便會成為產生黴菌或異臭的原因，因此當在過濾部52內積存了一定程度之異物70後，會需要進行過濾部52的保養。In this way, even when the water is drained and the circulation pump is used, the foreign matter 70 contained in the washing water is captured by the filter unit 52 . Specifically, the washing water dropped from above the front end of the central portion 55 moves to the right while flowing from the gap between the second cylinder 54 and the adjacent second cylinder 54 or between the first cylinder 53 and the adjacent first cylinder. 53 to the outside. When foreign matter 70 such as lint or hair passes through the gap between the adjacent second cylinder 54 and the second cylinder 54 or the gap between the adjacent first cylinder 53 and the first cylinder 53, it will be wrapped around the second cylinder 54 or the first cylinder. 53. If the foreign matter 70 is left unattended, it will become the cause of mold or odor. Therefore, when a certain degree of foreign matter 70 is accumulated in the filter part 52, maintenance of the filter part 52 will be required.

其次，使用圖6，針對過濾構件50的保養方法、及過濾構件50所帶來的作用來進行說明。Next, the maintenance method of the filter member 50 and the effect|action by the filter member 50 are demonstrated using FIG. 6. FIG.

首先，使用者會開啟第2門體45來取出過濾構件50。如前述地，過濾構件50是藉由使握持部51在預定方向上旋轉而解除鎖定後向前拉，便可從殼體構件60拆下。另外，被拆下之過濾構件50是藉由***過濾構件裝設部65並使其在與前述預定方向相反方向上旋轉，便可進行鎖定。First, the user opens the second door body 45 to take out the filter member 50 . As described above, the filter member 50 can be detached from the case member 60 by rotating the grip portion 51 in a predetermined direction to release the lock and then pulling it forward. In addition, the removed filter member 50 can be locked by being inserted into the filter member mounting portion 65 and rotating in the direction opposite to the aforementioned predetermined direction.

接著，將藉由第2圓柱54或第1圓柱53而被捕捉的異物70，以指甲或指尖、或是牙刷等日用品來向上劃過。由於第2圓柱54及第1圓柱53是形成為不間斷，因此使用者只要向上劃過即可容易地將異物70聚集，且可從第2圓柱54的端部將異物70除去。Next, the foreign matter 70 captured by the second cylinder 54 or the first cylinder 53 is drawn upward with a nail, a fingertip, or a daily necessities such as a toothbrush. Since the second cylinder 54 and the first cylinder 53 are formed continuously, the user can easily collect the foreign matter 70 by simply swiping upward, and can remove the foreign matter 70 from the end of the second cylinder 54 .

當異物70無法只靠向上劃過而完全除去時，亦可從第1圓柱53之背面施加水流。藉由從第1圓柱53之背面施加水流，異物70就會沿著第2圓柱54移動，因此連無法只靠劃過而除去之細小的異物70也可以除去。When the foreign matter 70 cannot be completely removed only by swipe upward, water flow can also be applied from the back of the first cylinder 53 . By applying the water flow from the back of the first cylinder 53, the foreign matter 70 will move along the second cylinder 54, so even the fine foreign matter 70 that cannot be removed by just passing it can be removed.

又，當異物70捲附於中心部55時，只靠向上劃過會難以將異物70除去。但是，由於在中心部55上形成有肋件56，因此可以抑制異物70像是捲附於中心部55般地被捕捉。即便異物70捲附於中心部55，也會因為在中心部55與肋件56之間有間隙，而可以用剪刀將異物70切斷後除去。Also, when the foreign matter 70 is wound around the central portion 55, it is difficult to remove the foreign matter 70 only by swipe upward. However, since the rib 56 is formed on the center portion 55 , it is possible to suppress the foreign matter 70 from being caught as if it were wound around the center portion 55 . Even if the foreign matter 70 is wound around the central portion 55, the foreign matter 70 can be cut and removed with scissors because there is a gap between the central portion 55 and the rib 56.

本實施形態中，在過濾部52之底部設置第1圓柱53，藉此即便是在底部也可以捕捉異物70。又，由於水流是透過鄰接之第1圓柱53與第1圓柱53的間隙來通過底部，因此可以確保排水流量。In the present embodiment, the first column 53 is provided at the bottom of the filter unit 52, whereby the foreign matter 70 can be captured even at the bottom. Moreover, since the water flows through the bottom through the gap between the adjacent first cylinder 53 and the first cylinder 53, the drainage flow rate can be ensured.

又，流入過濾部52之內部的水流為了避開肋件56而會朝左右分割，並且從鄰接之第2圓柱54與第2圓柱54或是鄰接之第1圓柱53與第1圓柱53的間隙朝外排出。藉此，會抑制在中心部55產生渦流，此外，可以減低水從過濾器所承受的阻力。In addition, the water flow flowing into the filter part 52 is divided to the left and right in order to avoid the ribs 56, and the gap between the adjacent second cylinder 54 and the second cylinder 54 or the adjacent first cylinder 53 and the first cylinder 53 is divided. Drain outward. This suppresses the generation of eddy currents at the central portion 55 and reduces the resistance that water receives from the filter.

如以上所述，本實施形態中之滾筒式洗衣機具備：本體部1；水槽11，支撐於本體部1；旋轉滾筒10，配置於水槽11內，且設置成旋轉自如；排水管19及排水軟管35，將從水槽11排水的水朝外部排出；殼體構件60，設置於排水管19及排水軟管35之途中；及過濾構件50，可裝卸地收納於殼體構件60內，並捕捉被排水之水所包含的異物70。過濾構件50具有：中心部55，在過濾構件50之長邊方向上延伸；及複數個側部，以中心部55為中心而延伸成U字狀。As mentioned above, the drum type washing machine in this embodiment includes: a main body 1; a water tank 11 supported on the main body 1; a rotating drum 10 arranged in the water tank 11 and set to rotate freely; a drain pipe 19 and a drain hose. The pipe 35 discharges the water drained from the water tank 11 to the outside; the case member 60 is provided on the way between the drain pipe 19 and the drain hose 35; Foreign matter 70 contained in the drained water. The filter member 50 has a central part 55 extending in the longitudinal direction of the filter member 50 , and a plurality of side parts extending in a U-shape around the central part 55 .

藉此，被過濾構件50所捕捉之異物70只要向上劃過便可從側部除去。因此，由於可以容易地清掃將水過濾之過濾裝置，因此可以提升過濾裝置的保養性。Thereby, the foreign matter 70 captured by the filter member 50 can be removed from the side only by swipe upward. Therefore, since the filter device for filtering water can be easily cleaned, the maintainability of the filter device can be improved.

又，亦可作成為過濾構件50具有配設於中心部55之長邊方向的肋件56，且肋件56向上方延伸。Moreover, the filter member 50 may have the rib 56 arrange|positioned in the longitudinal direction of the center part 55, and the rib 56 may extend upward.

藉此，會抑制在中心部55產生渦流，此外，可以減低水從過濾器所承受的阻力。因此，可以抑制水流之速度在過濾構件50中降低。This suppresses the generation of eddy currents at the central portion 55 and reduces the resistance that water receives from the filter. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the speed of the water flow from decreasing in the filter member 50 .

又，側部是由第1柱狀構件53及第2柱狀構件54所構成。第1柱狀構件53是從中心部55在水平方向上延伸。第2柱狀構件54是從第1柱狀構件53之前端朝向上方延伸。又，第1柱狀構件53及第2柱狀構件54設置有複數個。Moreover, the side part is comprised by the 1st columnar member 53 and the 2nd columnar member 54. As shown in FIG. The first columnar member 53 extends in the horizontal direction from the center portion 55 . The second columnar member 54 extends upward from the front end of the first columnar member 53 . In addition, a plurality of first columnar members 53 and second columnar members 54 are provided.

藉此，被過濾構件50所捕捉之異物70只要向上劃過便可從第2柱狀構件54的端部除去。Thereby, the foreign matter 70 captured by the filter member 50 can be removed from the end of the second columnar member 54 just by swipe upward.

又，第1圓柱53是隨著遠離中心部55而朝向上方傾斜。In addition, the first column 53 is inclined upward as it moves away from the center portion 55 .

藉此，積存於中心部側之異物70會沿著第1柱狀構件53在左右方向上被拉扯，異物70便會沿著該傾斜而變得容易拉扯。其結果，異物會變得容易從第1柱狀構件53順利地移動至第2柱狀構件54。因此，被過濾構件50所捕捉之異物70只要向上劃過便可從第2柱狀構件54的端部更容易地除去。Thereby, the foreign matter 70 accumulated on the central portion side is pulled in the left-right direction along the first columnar member 53, and the foreign matter 70 is easily pulled along the inclination. As a result, the foreign matter can easily move smoothly from the first columnar member 53 to the second columnar member 54 . Therefore, the foreign matter 70 captured by the filter member 50 can be more easily removed from the end of the second columnar member 54 by simply swipe upward.

另外，在本實施形態的說明中，雖然是使用「水平方向」、「鉛直方向」等顯示方向的詞語來進行了說明，但並不僅是完全「水平」「鉛直」方向的情況，還包含「大致水平」、「大致鉛直」方向的情況。 (其他實施形態)In addition, in the description of this embodiment, although words such as "horizontal direction" and "vertical direction" have been used to describe directions, they are not limited to the cases of completely "horizontal" and "vertical" directions. "Approximately horizontal" and "Approximately vertical" directions. (Other implementation forms)
