The present invention belongs to the technical field of household appliances, and relates to a washing machine, and particularly relates to a hook-type washing machine.
Washing machine, as a cleaning appliance, uses the electric energy to generate mechanical energy and wash clothes. As society continues to make progress, washing machine has become one of the indispensable appliances for households. It greatly reduces the time for people to wash clothes, and brings great convenience to people in daily life.
At present, the washing machine in the market is basically divided into pulsator type, drum type and agitator type. 1. The pulsator type washing machine drives the water flow in the washing machine to form a vortex, so that the clothes are continuously rotated up and down along with the vortex. Thus, the dirt on the clothes are cleaned. Despite the short washing time and the high cleaning degree, it is easy to cause damage, but also consume too much energy since there is friction during cleaning. 2. The drum washing machine imitates the principle of hammers hitting objects. The mechanical energy of the motor makes the drum rotate, and the objects are constantly lifted and dropped in the drum. In addition, the cleaning process of the drum type washing machine is time-consuming, power-consuming, and the operation is cumbersome. Moreover, the price is biased, which increases people's cost of living. 3. The agitator type washing machine uses the coordination of the stirring rod and the stirring wing in the central content to make the objects rub back and forth in the barrel, so as to achieve the effect of removing stains. However, in the cleaning process, the winding phase of the materials is more severe than the first two washing machines. It not only increases the wear rate of the materials, but also produces more noise in the cleaning process, which brings great discomfort. When the washing of the above 3 washing machines is finished, all of the materials will be twisted into a ball, which leads to the poor effect in the dehydration process. After the dehydration stage, we need to separate the products one by one, which is time-consuming and energy-consuming. Our clothes can be easily damaged and it is also extremely inconvenient.
According to the hook-type washing machine provided by the invention, by the cooperation of the lifting type clothes hanging component and the cleaning device, the clothes can be cleaned neatly and comprehensively. Moreover, the clothes cannot be screwed into a mess during cleaning, so the wear rate of the clothes is effectively reduced and the clothes can be conveniently taken out by people.
