    摘要: The disclosure discloses a washing machine and a control method thereof. The washing machine includes: a box body; an additive delivery device for delivering clothing additives into the washing machine; and a spare additive box storage structure, which is arranged on the box body and has at least one installation cavity for storing at least one additive box. The additive box can be stored in the spare additive box storage structure, which effectively avoids problems such as random placement of the additive box, easy forgetting, and inconvenience for users to find when replacing the additive box. During the process of adding additives, within a set time after the washing machine sends an alarm prompt to the user that the remaining amount of additives in the additive adding device is insufficient: if the user is still not detected to replace the new additive box, the spare additive suction device is controlled to start and deliver the additives in the spare additive box into the washing machine, effectively avoiding the problem of poor clothes cleaning effect caused by the user's failure to replace the additive box in time.

    摘要: This disclosure discloses a drum washing machine comprising: a housing, with a front panel that has a loading opening; a door, which can be opened and closed, mounted on the loading opening of the front panel; an outer drum, positioned inside the housing, with its opening facing the loading opening; and a sealing decorative plate, securely installed on the opening of the outer drum. When the door is closed, it remains in sealed contact with the sealing decorative plate through a sealing mechanism. This drum washing machine eliminates the conventional method of using window gasket to seal the opening of the outer drum. Instead, by incorporating the sealing decorative plate and maintaining a sealed contact with it through the sealing mechanism when the door is closed, the sealing of the outer drum's opening is achieved. This design prevents the accumulation of dirt on the gasket, a common issue in existing drum washing machines. Furthermore, the sealing decorative plate in this disclosure can also enhance the appearance of the area around the outer drum's opening, resulting in a neater and more aesthetically pleasing design, thus enhancing the user experience.
