Innovative application of Dongguan Teao damper on the upper cover of washing machine

As an indispensable household appliance in modern households, the optimization of the user experience of washing machines has always been an important direction for industry development. The upper cover of a washing machine, as a component that interacts frequently with users, directly affects their experience through its smoothness, safety, and silent operation. The Teao damper developed by Dongguan Teao Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. has achieved multiple innovations in the application of washing machine upper covers, bringing breakthrough progress in enhancing the quality of washing machines.

Structure and adaptive design of the TAO damper

The Teao damper adopts the hydraulic buffering principle, and its dimensions and parameters are precisely matched for the usage scenario of the upper cover of the washing machine. The damper plays a core role in the movement of the upper cover

Slow descent function: eliminate potential safety hazards

When the top cover of a traditional washing machine is closed, it often falls rapidly due to gravity, which not only easily pinches users' fingers but also produces harsh noises due to violent collisions. The Teao damper precisely controls the extension and retraction speed of the piston rod, ensuring a uniform slow descent of the top cover during the closing process. When the user releases the top cover, the resistance generated by the damper counteracts part of the gravitational force, allowing the time for the top cover to move from the 90° open position to fully closed to be controlled within 3-5 seconds. The descent speed gradually slows down, and the top cover finally closes in a near-silent manner.

Experimental data shows that the impact force when closing the top cover of a washing machine equipped with a Teao damper is reduced by over 70% compared to traditional designs, completely eliminating the risk of pinching injuries, making it especially suitable for households with children.

Improved performance: Enhancing operational convenience

When opening the upper cover, the Teo damper also demonstrates excellent performance. Its internal one-way valve design allows the piston rod to extend quickly, and users only need to apply a small force to easily lift the upper cover. When the opening angle reaches more than 30°, the damper will automatically switch to a supporting state, allowing the upper cover to stay at any angle stably without the need to hold it with one's hand. This design greatly facilitates users in putting in clothes or adding detergent, especially for elderly users or those with weaker physical strength.

Multiple advantages brought by innovative applications

Extend equipment lifespan

Traditionally, hard collisions of the cover can lead to loosening of screws at the connection points and accelerated aging of plastic parts. The Teao damper converts the impact force into internal energy of the damping medium through buffering, reducing mechanical wear. Tests have shown that the upper cover of a washing machine equipped with this damper has a damage rate of only 0.5% after 100,000 opening and closing tests, significantly lower than the average level of 8% for traditional designs, thereby significantly extending the service life of the washing machine.

Optimize the user experience

In addition to enhancing safety and durability, the Teao damper also brings a silent advantage to washing machines. The noise level when the top is closed has been reduced from 65 decibels in traditional designs to below 40 decibels, approaching the ambient noise level of a library, effectively solving the noise disturbance during nighttime laundry. At the same time, the smooth opening and closing process enhances the user experience, increasing the psychological acceptance of the product.

Dongguan Teao damper achieves multiple improvements in safety, durability, and comfort through precise control of the motion state of the upper cover of washing machines. This innovative application not only demonstrates the broad prospects of damping technology in the field of home appliances but also provides a reference solution for quality upgrading in the washing machine industry. With continuous technological iteration, Teao damper is expected to exert its core value of buffering and adjustment in more home appliance products, promoting the development of smart home experience towards a more refined direction.
