The pulsator rotates and produces a friction between clothes and the inner tub of the washing machine, which can achieve the effect of washing activity. The mode is single, so the washing performance is in a general level. In order to improve the washing performance of the washing machine and break the traditional technical prejudice of rotating pulsator tech, there is need for a new washing action, so as to achieve a better washing activity. It is what the industry needs.

SUMMARY:

A fourth limit structure is provided between coupling-clutch (12) and the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8), which can realize the axial limit of the two parts. It also includes a washing mode switching mechanism, which can control coupling-clutch (12) to realize the above four limits for axial sliding relative to the shaft lower (2). Then the washing mode switching mechanism triggered.
[0006] The guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) is sleeved outside the shaft-lower (2) and the lower end extends downward. The case-gear (13) is sleeved outside the lower end of the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8). An oil bearing is installed between the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) and the case-gear (13) to facilitate the rotation of the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8).
[0007] The gear internal (5) and the case-gear (13) are matched by a boss. The shaft-upper (3) and the upper planet carrier are connected by splines. The coupler-connector (4) and the case drum (9) are interference fitted.
[0008] The washing mode switching mechanism comprises a lever assembly, a rotating cam (14) and a power assembly for controlling the rotating cam (14), The rotating cam (14) is provided with three convex points of different heights, and the rotating cam (14) drives the coupling-clutch (12) to move through lever assembly. The convex point on the rotating cam (14) abuts one end of the lever assembly, and the other end contacts with coupling-clutch (12).
[0009] The lever assembly includes split lever part1 (15) and split leverpart2 (16). They form a lever structure through the spring etc guide (17) and the shaft-coupling (18), and the spring etc guide (17) is connected to the split lever part1 (15) and the split lever part2 (16). The free end of the split lever part1 (15) abuts against the convex point of the rotating cam (14), and the split lever part2 (16) is in contact with coupling-clutch (12).
[0010] The outer wall of coupling-clutch (12) extends radially to form a spring retainer, and the spring retainer is fitted with spring etc-coupling (19), which is designed for resetting the coupling-clutch.
[0011] The power assembly is fixed on the holder-lever-coupling (20), the power assembly is a motor, which is connected to the rotating cam (14).
[0012] The first limit structure means that coupling-clutch (12) and the clutch boss (11) are provided with serration splines that mesh with each other. The second limiting structure refers to coupling-clutch (12) and the case-gear (13), they are provided with inter-engaging splines. The third limiting structure refers to that coupling-clutch (12) and the holder-lever-coupling (20) are provided with intermeshing splines. The fourth limit structure means that coupling-clutch (12) and the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) are provided with intermeshing splines.
[0013] The case-gear and case-drum are riveted into a whole.
[0014] The technical effect of the present disclosure discloses two freely switchable washing modes, the traditional and new washing mode. The new washing mode refers to the active rotation of the inner tube of the washing machine, and the rotation speed is much higher, it produces stronger friction between the inner tube of the washing machine and the clothes, so as to achieve better clothes washing ability.
[0015] As an improvement, the guide-carrier(l)-steel is sleeved outside the shaft-lower and extends downward, the case-gear is outside the lower end of the guide-carrier(l)- steel. An oil bearing facilitates the rotation of the lower planet carrier fitted between the guide-carrier(l)-steel and case-gear. That also improves the running stability of the guide-carrier(l)-steel.
[0016] Preferably, the washing mode switching mechanism includes a lever assembly, a rotating cam, and a power assembly that controls the rotation of the rotating cam. The rotating cam is provided with three convex points of different heights, and the rotating cam is driven by the lever assembly. When the connector moves, the convex point on the rotating cam abuts against one end of the lever assembly, and the other end of the lever assembly abuts against the coupling-clutch. The rotation mode is adopted to realize the switching of the swing amplitude of the coupling-clutch, and the rotation mode is more space-saving. The motor control can be used as precise positioning.

At the same time, it can ensure the split lever part1 and split lever part2 will not be broken or deformed.
[0018] The outer wall of coupling-clutch (12) extends radially to form a spring retainer. The spring retainer is fitted with spring etc-coupling (19), which is designed for resetting the coupling-clutch. While improving the reset effect of the coupling-clutch, it rotates synchronously with spring etc-coupling and the spring seat during spin mode, which also reduces the noise. In addition, the spring combines with spring etc guide, the spring etc guide gives a force to the coupling-clutch through split lever part2. The spring gives a force to the coupling-clutch, so that the coupling-clutch received two forces in two directions of the spring and the spring etc guide. It further increases the self- correction amplitude of the coupling-clutch vibration during the operation of the washing machine and ensures the connection between the coupling-clutch and the corresponding components.
[0019] Preferably, the power component is fixed on the holder-lever-coupling. The power part is a motor, and the motor is connected to the rotating cam. The rotation mode adopted can realize the switching of the swing amplitude of the coupling-clutch, and the rotation mode is more space-saving. The motor control can be used as precise positioning.
[0020] The first limit structure means that the coupling-clutch (12) and the clutch boss (11) are provided with serration splines that mesh with each other. The second limiting structure refers to coupling-clutch (12) and the case-gear (13). They are provided with inter-engaging splines. The third limiting structure refers to that coupling-clutch (12) and the holder-lever-coupling (20) are provided with intermeshing splines. The fourth limit structure means that coupling-clutch (12) and the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) are provided with intermeshing splines.

The clutch boss (11) is connected to the lower end of the shaft-lower (2). The coupling-clutch (12) is movably fitted outside the shaft-lower (2). There is a first limit structure between coupling-clutch (12) and the clutch boss (11) which can realize the axial limit of the two parts. The second limit structure which can realize the axial limit is arranged between coupling-clutch (12) and the case-gear (13).

Then the washing mode switching mechanism triggered.
[0032] The guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) is sleeved outside the shaft-lower (2) and the lower end extends downward. The case-gear (13) is sleeved outside the lower end of the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8). An oil bearing is installed between the guide-carrier(l)- steel (8) and the case-gear (13) to facilitate the rotation of the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8).

[0034] The shaft-upper (3) and the upper planet carrier are connected by splines.
[0035] The coupler-connector (4) and the case drum (9) are interference fitted.
[0036] The washing mode switching mechanism comprises a lever assembly, a rotating cam (14), and a power assembly for controlling the rotating cam (14). The rotating cam (14) is provided with three convex points of different heights, namely, high, medium, and low. The three convex points control the swing amplitude of the split lever part1 15. The rotating cam (14) drives the coupling-clutch (12) to move through lever assembly. The convex point on the rotating cam (14) abuts one end of the lever assembly, and the other end contacts with coupling-clutch (12).
[0037] The lever assembly includes split lever part1 (15) and split lever part2 (16). They form a lever structure through the spring etc guide (17) and the shaft-coupling (18). The shaft-coupling (18) is connected to the split lever part1 (15) and the split lever part2 (16), acting as a shaft to achieve the principle of leverage. The spring etc guide (17) is connected with split lever part1 (15) and split lever part2 (16). The free end of the split lever part1 (15) abuts against the convex point of the rotating cam (14). The split lever part2 (16) is in contact with coupling-clutch (12).
[0038] The outer wall of coupling-clutch (12) extends radially to form a spring retainer. The spring retainer is fitted with spring etc-coupling (19), which is designed for resetting the coupling-clutch. Especially when the coupling-clutch 12 is splined with the holder-lever-coupling 20 and the guide-carrier(l)-steel 8, spring etc- coupling 19 is in a compressed state.
[0039] The power assembly is fixed on the holder-lever-coupling (20). The power assembly is a motor, which is connected to the rotating cam (14).
[0040] The first limit structure means that coupling-clutch (12) and the clutch boss (11) are provided with serration splines that mesh with each other. The second limiting structure refers to coupling-clutch (12) and the case-gear (13), they are provided with inter-engaging splines. The third limiting structure refers to that the coupling-clutch (12) and the holder-lever-coupling (20) are provided with intermeshing splines. The fourth limit structure means that coupling-clutch (12) and the guide-carrier(l)-steel (8) are provided with intermeshing splines.
[0041] FIG. 2 illustrates is a cross-sectional view of a clutch for a fully automatic pulsator washing machine having a traditional washing mode in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The working principle of the present disclosure is when the traditional washing mode (the inner tub is fixed and the pulsator rotates) is required, the brake mechanism 10 will stop the case-drum 9 and the gear internal 5 is restricted from moving. The motor drives the rotating cam 14 to the middle convex point, so that the middle convex point abuts the split lever part1 15. At this time, the split lever part2 16 drives the coupling- clutch 12 to slide, referring to the shaft-lower 2, at which point the coupling-clutch 12 is in independent. That is, none of the coupling-clutch 12 and the clutch-boss 11, the case-gear 13, the guide-carrier(l)-steel 8 or the holder-lever-coupling 20 trigger a limit mechanism. The motor of power mechanism 1 drives the pulley through the belt, the pulley drives the shaft-lower 2 to rotate, and the shaft-lower 2 drives the gear-planet 6 to rotate and revolve, thereby driving guide carrier (u) 7 and the guide-carrier(l)-steel 8 to rotate. The guide carrier (u) 7 drives the shaft-lower 3 to rotate, then the shaft- lower 3 makes the washing machine pulsator rotate.
[0042] When a new washing mode is required (the inner tub rotates and the pulsator is fixed), the brake mechanism 10 is separated from the case-drum 9. The motor of the power assembly drives the rotating cam 14 to the high convex point, so that the high convex point and the split lever part1 15 contact. When split lever part1 15 rotates, using the principle of leverage, the split lever part2 16 rotates, and the split lever part2 16 drives the coupling-clutch 12 to slide relative to the shaft-lower 2. At this time, the third limit structure is triggered, which means the coupling-clutch 12 is engaged with the spline of the holder-lever-coupling 20. When the fourth limit structure is triggered, the spline between the coupling-clutch 12 and the guide-carrier(l)-steel 8 is engaged; since the holder-lever-coupling 20 is fixed on the housing of the washing machine. The guide-carrier(l)-steel 8 is fixed and without rotation, after the guide-carrier(l)-steel 8 is fixed, the shaft-upper 3 does not rotate either, thus ensuring that the pulsator of the washing machine does not rotate. The motor of the power mechanism 1 drives the pulley to rotate through the belt, and the pulley drives the shaft-lower 2 to rotate, and the shaft-lower 2 make the gear-planet 6 rotate, the gear-planet 6 drives the gear- internal 5 to rotate, and the inner gear 5 drives the case-drum 9 to rotate. Due to the interference fit between the coupler-connector 4 and the case-drum 9, the case-drum 9 drives the coupler-connector 4 to rotate. Thus, the rotation of the coupler-connector 4 drives the inner barrel of the washing machine to rotate.
[0043] FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a clutch for a fully automatic pulsator washing machine having a spin mode in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure Whether it is a traditional or a new washing mode, after washing is completed, a dehydration action is required. The dehydration procedure is as follows: the brake mechanism 10 is separated from the case-drum 9; the motor of the power assembly drives the rotating cam 14 to the low convex point, so that the low convex point and the split lever part1 15 contact. When split lever part1 15 rotates, using the principle of leverage, the split lever part2 16 rotates, and the split lever part2 16 drives the coupling-clutch 12 to slide relative to the shaft-lower 2. At this time, the first limit structure is triggered. That is, the coupling-clutch 12 engages with the spline on the clutch-boss 11, and the second limit structure is triggered, that is, the spline engagement between the coupling-clutch 12 and the case-gear 13. The motor in the power mechanism 1 drives the pulley to rotate through the belt, the pulley drives the shaft-lower 2 to rotate, and the shaft-lower 2 drives the coupling-clutch 12 to rotate through the clutch-boss 11. The coupling-clutch 12 drives the case-gear 13 to rotate, the case-gear 13 drives the case-drum 9 to rotate, so that the gear-planet 6 rotates, the gear-planet 6 drives the gear-internal 5 to rotate, and the gear-internal 5 drives the case-drum 9 to rotate. The case-drum 9 has an interference fit with coupler-connector 4, so it drives the coupler-connector 4 to rotate, so that the rotation of the coupler-connector 4 drives the inner barrel of the washing machine to rotate at a high speed to achieve dehydration.
