Technical Field

The invention relates to dehumidification equipment, in particular to a pipe connecting device and a dehumidifier.

Background

In the existing dehumidification equipment, a mode of collecting the condensed water by a water tank is usually adopted, when the water tank is adopted for collection, the volume of the water tank is limited by the volume of the dehumidifier, so that the water cannot be too large, a user needs to draw out the water tank for pouring water for many times when the indoor humidity is higher, and the user experience is reduced.

Therefore, the prior art provides a gravity drainage or pump drainage mode to drain condensed water in the water receiving tray, a drain pipe is required to be externally connected to the dehumidifier at the moment, a threaded connector is generally adopted to connect the drain tap and the water pipe in the prior art, and when the threaded connector is arranged inside the shell in consideration of attractiveness, the threaded connector is difficult to disassemble and assemble, the disassembling and assembling time is long, and the use of a user is influenced.

Disclosure of Invention

The present invention is directed to solving at least one of the problems of the prior art. Therefore, the invention provides the pipe connecting device which can increase the attractiveness of the whole dehumidifier while realizing the quick assembly and disassembly of the drain pipe of the dehumidifier.

A pipe connecting device of an aspect of the present invention includes: a front housing; a quick connector having a body and a collar; the unlocking part is arranged on the front shell and can drive the lantern ring to slide relative to the body, so that the quick connector is unlocked.

Furthermore, a sliding groove is formed in the front shell, at least part of the sliding groove extends spirally from front to back, a sliding block matched with the sliding groove is arranged on the unlocking portion, and when the unlocking portion rotates relative to the front shell, the sliding block can slide in the sliding groove.

Further, the sliding groove includes a parallel section extending in parallel with the front-rear direction, and the parallel section penetrates the front case rearward.

Furthermore, the front shell is provided with at least two sliding grooves, the unlocking part is provided with at least two sliding blocks, and the at least two sliding grooves are distributed along the rotation direction of the unlocking part relative to the front shell.

Further, a spring is connected between the front case and the unlocking portion, and the spring is used for providing torque opposite to the rotation direction of the unlocking portion for the unlocking portion.

Furthermore, the front shell is detachably connected with a rear shell, and the body is arranged on the rear shell.

Further, the body is in threaded connection with a nut, and the nut and the body clamp the rear shell together.

In a second aspect of the present invention, a dehumidifier is provided, which comprises the above pipe connection device.

When the connecting pipe device is used, the drain pipe can be connected to the second connecting pipe part on the pipe joint, then the pipe joint is inserted into the quick joint, when the pipe joint is inserted in place, the quick joint can be automatically locked with the pipe joint, when the drain pipe needs to be removed, only the unlocking part needs to be operated to move, so that the lantern ring moves together under the abutting of the unlocking part, and the pipe joint can be unlocked from the quick joint; compared with the threaded joint in the prior art, the time for installing and disassembling the pipeline can be effectively saved; meanwhile, the whole locking and unlocking process does not need to operate the quick connector, the quick connector can be arranged inside the front shell, the connector does not need to be exposed, and the attractiveness of the interface device is effectively improved.

Additional aspects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows and, in part, will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention.
