DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The specific implementations of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementations described herein are only used for illustrating and explaining the present disclosure, and not for limiting the present disclosure.

In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the positional terms used, such as “upper, lower, left, right,” are usually defined based on directions of drawing planes of the accompanying drawings, and “inner, outer” refer to inner and outer sides of relevant components. Furthermore, terms such as “first” and “second” are only used for distinguishing and describing, and shall not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

In the description of the present disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms “arrange” and “connect” are understood in a broad sense. For example, it may refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection via an intermediate medium; and it may refer to communication between the interiors of two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure may be understood according to specific circumstances.

As laundry treating apparatuses develop, a dual-cylinder structure is increasingly being adapted to realize different laundry treating functions. For example, a dual-cylinder washing machine is arranged with two washing cylinders, which may realize washing for different types of laundry. Since two washing cylinders need to be arranged, it is necessary to use the space reasonably.

In related arts, the layout of two cylinders in the dual-cylinder laundry treating apparatus is unreasonable, which causes the two cylinders to occupy a large space, thereby resulting in a large size of the entire laundry treating apparatus.

As shown in FIGS. 1-9, a laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet 1, a first cylinder 2, and a second cylinder 3.

The cabinet 1 has a top surface 14, a bottom surface 15, and a front plate 11 provided with a laundry loading opening.

The front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 refers to an overall forward-facing side of the laundry treating apparatus and faces a user. The front plate 11 extends in a vertical direction and serves as a side used for loading and unloading laundry. The top surface 14 and the bottom surface 15 refer to a topmost surface and a bottommost surface of the cabinet 1, respectively, when facing the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1, and the top surface 14 and the bottom surface 15 extend in a horizontal direction.

In the vertical direction, a height difference between a center of the first cylinder 2 and a center of the second cylinder 3 is set as a first distance 25, and a ratio of the first distance 25 to a height of the cabinet 1 ranges from 0.2 to 0.4.

In the above technical solution, by setting the first distance 25 and the height of the cabinet 1 in such a ratio, when the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged on the cabinet 1, a limited space inside the cabinet 1 may be fully utilized, improving a space utilization rate of the cabinet 1. It is possible to arrange the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 without excessively increasing a size of the cabinet 1 in a height direction, thereby preventing the entire laundry treating apparatus from being too large in size. This ensures that the laundry treating apparatus does not occupy excessive space when used by the user, offering more options for application scenarios. In addition, limiting a proportion of a height of the two cylinders in the cabinet prevents the cabinet from being unstable due to an excessive overall height of the machine.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the laundry loading opening includes a first laundry loading opening and a second laundry loading opening. The first cylinder 2 is connected to the first laundry loading opening and the second cylinder 3 is connected to the second laundry loading opening. The first distance 25 is defined as a height difference in the vertical direction between an axis center of the first laundry loading opening and an axis center of the second laundry loading opening.

The center of the first cylinder 2 is the axis center of the first laundry loading opening, and the center of the second cylinder 3 is the axis center of the second laundry loading opening. The first distance 25 is a straight-line distance in the vertical direction. A line passing through the axis center of the first laundry loading opening and parallel to a horizontal plane is defined as a first line 26, and a line passing through the axis center of the second laundry loading opening and parallel to the horizontal plane is defined as a second line 34. A perpendicular straight-line distance between the first line 26 and the second line 34 is defined as the first distance 25. Herein, the first distance 25 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both the first line 26 and the second line 34, i.e., a shortest distance between the first line 26 and the second line 34. Both the first line 26 and the second line 34 are virtual, serving to illustrate the arrangement positions of the first cylinder 2, the second cylinder 3, and the cabinet 1.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first cylinder 2 has a first central axis, and the second cylinder 3 has a second central axis.

The first cylinder 2 may be connected to the cabinet 1. The first cylinder 2 includes a first outer tub and a first inner drum, and the first outer tub is sleeved over the first inner drum. The coaxial axis of the first outer tub and the first inner drum serves as the first central axis.

The second cylinder 3 may be connected to the cabinet 1. The second cylinder 3 includes a second outer tub and a second inner drum, and the second outer tub is sleeved over the second inner drum. The coaxial axis of the second outer tub and the second inner drum serves as the second central axis.

The first central axis intersects a cylinder bottom of the first cylinder 2 at a first point, and the second central axis intersects a cylinder bottom of the second cylinder 3 at a second point. The first distance 25 is defined as a height difference in the vertical direction between the first point and the second point.

The first distance 25 is the straight-line distance in the vertical direction. A line passing through the first point and parallel to the horizontal plane is defined as a first line 26, and a line passing through the second point and parallel to the horizontal plane is defined as a second line 34. A perpendicular straight-line distance between the first line 26 and the second line 34 is set as the first distance 25. Herein, the first distance 25 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both the first line 26 and the second line 34, i.e., a shortest distance between the first line 26 and the second line 34. Both the first line 26 and the second line 34 are virtual, serving to illustrate the arrangement positions of the first cylinder 2, the second cylinder 3, and the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the height of the cabinet 1 is set as a second distance 16, and the second distance 16 is defined as a perpendicular straight-line distance in the vertical direction between the top surface 14 and the bottom surface 15. The second distance 16 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both the top surface 14 and the bottom surface 15, i.e., a shortest distance between the top surface 14 and the bottom surface 15.

To further improve the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely above the second cylinder 3. In the vertical direction, a height difference between the top surface 14 and the center of the first cylinder 2 is set as a third distance 27, and a ratio of the third distance 27 to the height of the cabinet 1 is set to be less than or equal to 0.3.

The first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged in an upper-lower manner, so that the space occupied by the cabinet 1 in the horizontal direction does not increase excessively. Meanwhile, when the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged in the upper-lower manner, by combining the ratio relationship between the first distance 25 and the height of the cabinet 1, as well as the ratio relationship between the third distance 27 and the height of the cabinet 1, the space occupied in the vertical direction may be reduced as much as possible, thereby significantly improving the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

It is understandable that when the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely above the second cylinder 3, the first central axis is also located obliquely above the second central axis, and the center of the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely above the center of the second cylinder 3. As mentioned above, the center of the first cylinder 2 may be the axis center of the first laundry loading opening, or an intersection point of the first central axis and the cylinder bottom of the first cylinder 2, i.e., the first point.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely below the second cylinder 3.

In the vertical direction, a height difference between the bottom surface 15 and the center of the first cylinder 2 is set as a fourth distance 28, and a ratio of the fourth distance 28 to the height of the cabinet 1 is set to be less than or equal to 0.4.

The first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged in an upper-lower manner, so that the space occupied by the cabinet 1 in the horizontal direction does not increase excessively. Meanwhile, when the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged in the upper-lower manner, by combining the ratio relationship between the first distance 25 and the height of the cabinet 1, as well as the ratio relationship between the fourth distance 28 and the height of the cabinet 1, the space occupied in the vertical direction may be reduced as much as possible, thereby significantly improving the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

It is understandable that when the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely below the second cylinder 3, the first central axis is also located obliquely below the second central axis, and the center of the first cylinder 2 is located obliquely below the center of the second cylinder 3. As mentioned above, the center of the first cylinder 2 may be the axis center of the first laundry loading opening, or an intersection point of the first central axis and the cylinder bottom of the first cylinder 2, i.e., the first point.

It is understandable that the first distance 25, the second distance 16, the third distance 27, and the fourth distance 28 may be set to specific values based on actual requirements. When the above ratios are satisfied, the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be accommodated in the cabinet 1 without excessively increasing the size of the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a value of the third distance 27 ranges from 90 mm to 150 mm. In some examples, the value of the third distance 27 is 111 mm.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a value of the fourth distance 28 ranges from 100 mm to 300 mm. In some examples, the value of the fourth distance 28 is 200 mm.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis is parallel to the horizontal plane, so that the first cylinder 2 is arranged horizontally. With this arrangement, the first cylinder 2 as a whole faces the front plate 11 directly. When the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the first cylinder 2 as a whole also faces the user directly. This ensures appropriate sizes of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 while reducing space occupation.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis is arranged at an angle to the horizontal plane, so that the first cylinder 2 is arranged obliquely. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the first cylinder 2 is inclined towards the user. This may meet different requirements in different application scenarios, such as facilitating loading and unloading laundry.

The first cylinder 2 is oblique relative to the horizontal plane, which means that a horizontal height of one end of the first cylinder 2 is higher than a horizontal height of the other end of the first cylinder 2. It should be noted that which end of the first cylinder 2 is higher may be set according to actual requirements. In some examples, an end of the first cylinder 2 close to the first laundry loading opening has a higher horizontal height.

It should be noted that whether the first cylinder 2 is arranged horizontally or obliquely relative to the horizontal plane may be set according to actual requirements, so as to meet the requirements of different scenarios and users.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second central axis is parallel to the horizontal plane, so that the second cylinder 3 is arranged horizontally. With this arrangement, the second cylinder 3 as a whole faces the front plate 11 directly. When the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the second cylinder 3 as a whole also faces the user directly. This ensures appropriate sizes of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 while reducing space occupation.

It should be noted that the orientation of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be the same or different. That is to say, when the second cylinder 3 is arranged horizontally, the first cylinder 2 may also be arranged horizontally, or the first cylinder 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second central axis is arranged at an angle to the horizontal plane, so that the second cylinder 3 is arranged obliquely. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the second cylinder 3 is inclined towards the user. This may meet different requirements in different application scenarios, such as facilitating the loading and unloading of laundry.

The second cylinder 3 is oblique relative to the horizontal plane, which means that a horizontal height of one end of the second cylinder 3 is higher than a horizontal height of the other end of the second cylinder 3. It should be noted that which end of the second cylinder 3 is higher may be set according to actual requirements. In some examples, an end of the second cylinder 3, which is close to the second laundry loading opening, has a higher horizontal height.

It should be noted that whether the second cylinder 3 is arranged horizontally or obliquely relative to the horizontal plane may be set according to actual requirements, so as to meet the requirements of different scenarios and users. Additionally, the orientation of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be the same or different. That is to say, when the second cylinder 3 is arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane, the first cylinder 2 may be arranged horizontally, or the first cylinder 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a value of the first distance 25 is 185 mm, and a value of the height of the cabinet 1 is 820 mm.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the cylinder diameter of the first cylinder 2 is smaller than a cylinder diameter of the second cylinder 3, and a projection of the first central axis in the vertical direction does not coincide with a projection of the second central axis in the vertical direction. With this arrangement, the first cylinder 2 may handle small items of laundry, while the second cylinder 3 may handle large items of laundry. This enables simultaneous operation, saves time, and adapts to different application scenarios. In addition, the projection of the first central axis not coinciding with the projection of the second central axis may further improve the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

The projection of the first central axis of the first cylinder 2 does not coincide with the projection of the second central axis of the second cylinder 3 in the vertical direction. Thus, the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 are arranged in a staggered manner in the horizontal direction. Accordingly, the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be arranged diagonally on the cabinet 1, which reduces space occupation and improves the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a number of the first cylinders 2 is one. The first cylinder 2 may serve as an option for one type of laundry treatment, and the second cylinder 3 may serve as an option for another type of laundry treatment.

The first cylinder 2 may be a small cylinder, and the second cylinder 3 may be a large cylinder. In some examples, a number of the second cylinders 3 may also be one, with the first cylinder 2 close to the top surface 14 of the cabinet 1 and the second cylinder 3 close to the bottom surface 15 of the cabinet 1. In other examples, the number of the second cylinders 3 may also be set as needed, which may be two or more.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the first cylinders 2 is two, and the two first cylinders 2 are respectively located on both sides of the second cylinder 3 in the horizontal direction. By providing two first cylinders 2, a three-cylinder operation may be realized. During laundry treatment, more categories may be selected for classified operations, offering more options for laundry treatment and higher selectivity for users, as well as wider application scenarios. A staggered arrangement of the three cylinders may further improve the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

The two first cylinders 2 are respectively located on both sides of the second cylinder 3, which means that in the horizontal direction, the second cylinder 3 is located between the two first cylinders 2. Both first cylinders 2 are arranged in a staggered manner relative to the second cylinder 3, which helps improve the space utilization rate. In some examples, both of the first cylinders 2 are located above the second cylinder 3, close to the top surface 14 of the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis of one of the two first cylinders 2 is located at a same horizontal height as the first central axis of the other of the two first cylinders 2. With this arrangement, the two first cylinders 2 are at a same height. The two first cylinders 2 have a same distance from the bottom surface 15 of the cabinet 1, a same distance from the top surface 14 of the cabinet 1, and a height difference between the two first cylinders 2 and the second cylinder 3 is also the same, resulting in high space utilization rate.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis of one of the two first cylinders 2 is spaced apart from the first central axis of the other of the two first cylinders 2 in the vertical direction. With this arrangement, the two first cylinders 2 may be set to different heights according to different application scenarios, which enriches application scenarios and meets the requirements of different users.

The first central axes of the two first cylinders 2 have a spacing with each other. That is to say, the two first cylinders 2 have different distances from the bottom surface 15 of the cabinet 1, different distances from the top surface 14 of the cabinet 1, and height differences of the two first cylinders 2 from the second cylinder 3 are also different.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis of one of the two first cylinders 2 is arranged in parallel with the first central axis of the other of the two first cylinders 2. With this arrangement, the two first cylinders 2 are arranged in parallel with each other and face a same direction. The overall laundry treating apparatus has a neat and attractive appearance, and it also facilitates the user to operate and observe inside of the two first cylinders 2.

It should be noted that in some examples, the two first cylinders 2 may be arranged horizontally, or both may be arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane. In other examples, the two first cylinders 2 may face the front plate 11 directly, or may be arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis of one of the two first cylinders 2 is arranged at an angle to the first central axis of the other of the two first cylinders 2. With this arrangement, the two first cylinders 2 are not arranged in parallel and face different directions, which may meet the requirements of different users and enrich application scenarios.

It should be noted that in some examples, one of the two first cylinders 2 may be arranged horizontally and the other of the two first cylinders 2 obliquely relative to the horizontal plane. Alternatively, both of the two first cylinders 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal plane but at different oblique angles. In other examples, one of the two first cylinders 2 may face the front plate 11 directly, and the other of the two first cylinders 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11. Alternatively, both two first cylinders 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11 but at different oblique angles.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the cabinet 1 has two side plates 12 oppositely arranged with each other. Herein, in the horizontal direction, a distance between the center of the first cylinder 2 and the center of the second cylinder 3 is set as a fifth distance 23, and a ratio of the fifth distance 23 to a width of the cabinet 1 is set to range from 0.1 to 0.4.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the center of the first cylinder 2 is the axis center of the first laundry loading opening, and the center of the second cylinder 3 is the axis center of the second laundry loading opening. The fifth distance 23 is a straight-line distance in the horizontal direction. A line passing through the axis center of the first laundry loading opening and perpendicular to the horizontal plane is defined as a third line 22, and a line passing through the axis center of the second laundry loading opening and perpendicular to the horizontal plane is defined as a fourth line 32. A perpendicular straight-line distance between the third line 22 and the fourth line 32 is defined as the fifth distance 23. Herein, the fifth distance 23 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both the third line 22 and the fourth line 32, i.e., a shortest distance between the third line 22 and the fourth line 32. Both the third line 22 and the fourth line 32 are virtual, serving to illustrate the arrangement positions of the first cylinder 2, the second cylinder 3, and the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis intersects the cylinder bottom of the first cylinder 2 at the first point, and the second central axis intersects the cylinder bottom of the second cylinder 3 at the second point. The fifth distance 23 is a straight-line distance in the horizontal direction between the first point and the second point.

The fifth distance 23 is the straight-line distance in the horizontal direction. A line passing through the first point and perpendicular to the horizontal plane is defined as the third line 22, and a line passing through the second point and perpendicular to the horizontal plane is defined as the fourth line 32. The perpendicular straight-line distance between the third line 22 and the fourth line 32 is defined as the fifth distance 23. Herein, the fifth distance 23 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both the third line 22 and the fourth line 32, i.e., the shortest distance between the third line 22 and the fourth line 32. Both the third line 22 and the fourth line 32 are virtual, serving to illustrate the arrangement positions of the first cylinder 2, the second cylinder 3, and the cabinet 1.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the width of the cabinet 1 is set as a sixth distance 13, and the sixth distance 13 is defined as a perpendicular straight-line distance between the two side plates 12 in the horizontal direction. The sixth distance 13 refers to the straight-line distance perpendicular to both side plates 12, i.e., a shortest distance between the two side plates 12.

To further control distances between the first cylinder 2, the second cylinder 3, and the two side plates 12 of the cabinet 1, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the cylinder diameter of the first cylinder 2 is smaller than the cylinder diameter of the second cylinder 3. In the horizontal direction, a perpendicular straight-line distance between the center of the first cylinder 2 and one side plate 12 is set as a seventh distance 24, and a ratio of the fifth distance 23 to the seventh distance 24 to the width of the cabinet 1 is set to 3:2:10. With this arrangement, positions of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 inside the cabinet 1 may be reasonably arranged, the positional relationship between the cabinet 1, the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be reasonably defined, and a lateral space utilization rate of the cabinet 1 may be further improved.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a value of the seventh distance 24 ranges from 100 mm to 265 mm. In some examples, the value of the seventh distance 24 is 111 mm. It should be noted that the value of the seventh distance 24 may be designed according to a size of an actual product, and there is no excessive restriction herein.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the first cylinder 2 and the number of the second cylinder 3 are both one. The side plates 12 include a first side plate 121 and a second side plate 122, the first cylinder 2 is close to the first side plate 121. The seventh distance 24 is the perpendicular straight-line distance between the center of the first cylinder 2 and the first side plate 121. The second cylinder 3 is close to the second side plate 122.

The first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 are two side plates 12 oppositely arranged with each other. The first cylinder 2 is closer to the first side plate 121 than to the second side plate 122, and the second cylinder 3 is closer to the second side plate 122 than to the first side plate 121. With this arrangement, it is convenient to use the first side plate 121 as a basis for arranging the position of the first cylinder 2, and use the second side plate 122 as a basis for arranging the position of the second cylinder 3.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the first cylinders 2 is two and the number of the second cylinder 3 is one. In the horizontal direction, the second cylinder 3 is located between the two first cylinders 2. With this arrangement, three-cylinder operation may be realized, providing more options for laundry treatment and wider application scenarios. The staggered arrangement of the three cylinders may further improve the space utilization rate of the cabinet 1.

The side plates 12 include the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122. The two first cylinders 2 are close to the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122, respectively. A perpendicular straight-line distance between the center of the first cylinder 2 close to the first side plate 121 and the first side plate 121 refers to the seventh distance 24, and a perpendicular straight-line distance between the center of the first cylinder 2 close to the second side plate 122 and the second side plate 122 refers to the seventh distance 24.

It is understandable that in the horizontal direction, the two first cylinders 2 are located on both sides of the second cylinder 3, respectively. The seventh distance 24 for the two first cylinders 2 may be determined according to the first side plate 121 or the second side plate 122 they are close to, thereby providing a basis for positioning the two first cylinders 2.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis is perpendicular to the front plate 11, so that the first cylinder 2 faces the front plate 11 directly. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the first cylinder 2 faces the user directly.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first central axis is arranged at an angle to the front plate 11, so that the first cylinder 2 is arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the first cylinder 2 is inclined towards the user, which may meet different requirements in different application scenarios.

It should be noted that the first cylinder 2 being arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11 may refer to an oblique arrangement in the horizontal direction or an oblique arrangement in the vertical direction, which may be specifically determined according to actual requirements.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second central axis is perpendicular to the front plate 11, so that the second cylinder 3 faces the front plate 11 directly. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the second cylinder 3 faces the user directly.

It should be noted that the orientation of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be the same or different. That is to say, when the second cylinder 3 faces the front plate 11 directly, the first cylinder 2 may also face the front plate 11 directly, or the first cylinder 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the second central axis is arranged at an angle to the front plate 11, so that the second cylinder 3 is arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11. With this arrangement, when the user faces the front plate 11 of the cabinet 1 of the laundry treating apparatus, the second cylinder 3 is inclined towards the user, which may meet different requirements in different application scenarios.

It should be noted that the second cylinder 3, being arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11, may refer to an oblique arrangement in the horizontal direction or an oblique arrangement in the vertical direction, which may be specifically determined according to actual requirements.

The orientation of the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3 may be the same or different. That is to say, when the second cylinder 3 is arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11, the first cylinder 2 may face the front plate 11 directly, or the first cylinder 2 may be arranged obliquely relative to the front plate 11.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the ratio of the fifth distance 23 to the width of the cabinet 1 is set to 0.3, the value of the fifth distance 23 is 185 mm, and the value of the width of the cabinet 1 is 598 mm. It should be noted that the ratio of the fifth distance 23 to the width of the cabinet 1, the value of the fifth distance 23, and the value of the width of the cabinet 1 may be set according to the size of the actual product, and there is no excessive restriction herein.
