Description

This disclosure relates to the technical field of garment processing, and more particularly to garment processing equipment. In related technologies, such as double-drum garment processing systems, the arrangement of the two drums is not rational, and the large space occupied by the two drums results in a large overall size for the garment processing system. The drawings are used to enhance the understanding of this disclosure, constitute part of this specification, and are used to illustrate this disclosure together with the following detailed description, but do not limit this disclosure. This is a schematic diagram of a garment processing device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the first distance, second distance, and third distance of a garment processing apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of a garment processing apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the first distance, second distance, and fourth distance of a garment processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of a garment processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the fifth distance, sixth distance, and seventh distance of a garment processing apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of the fifth, sixth, and seventh distances of a garment processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.This is a schematic diagram of a garment processing apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, in which the number of first drums is two.This is a structural diagram of a garment processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, where the number of first drums is two. The following describes specific embodiments of this disclosure in detail with reference to the drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are used solely for the purpose of illustrating and interpreting this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. In this disclosure, unless otherwise specified, terms indicating direction, such as “up,” “down,” “left,” and “right,” are defined in reference to the general orientation of the drawing, and “inside” and “outside” refer to the inside and outside of the relevant components. Furthermore, terms such as “first,” “second,” etc., are used solely for distinction and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

With the advancement of laundry processing equipment, double-drum designs are increasingly being adopted to enable different types of laundry processing. For example, a double-drum washing machine has two washing drums for washing different types of clothing. Because two washing drums are required, space must be utilized efficiently. In related technologies, the arrangement of the two drums in double-drum garment processing systems is not rational; the two drums occupy a large amount of space, resulting in a large overall size for the garment processing system. Therefore, as shown in Figures 1 to 9, the garment processing apparatus includes a housing 1, a first drum 2, and a second drum 3. The housing 1 has a top surface 14, a bottom surface 15, and a front plate 11 on which a clothing insertion opening is provided. The front plate 11 of the housing 1 refers to the front-facing surface of the entire garment processing device, the surface facing the user, the front plate 11 extends vertically, and is the surface used for loading and unloading clothes. The top surface 14 and bottom surface 15 refer to the highest and lowest surfaces of the housing 1 when viewed from the front plate 11, the top surface 14 and bottom surface 15 extend horizontally. The horizontal height difference between the center of the first drum 2 and the center of the second drum 3 in the vertical direction is defined as the first distance 25, and the ratio of the first distance 25 to the height of the housing 1 is set to 0.2 to 0.4. In the above proposed technology, by setting the first distance 25 and the height of the housing 1 to this ratio, when the first drum 2 and the second drum 3 are placed in the housing 1, the limited space within the housing 1 can be utilized to t
