Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a clothes drying device, in particular to a portable underwear drying and sterilizing device. Background Art

[0002] In order to meet the needs of users for drying clothes when going out, a kind of portable clothes drying equipment has gradually appeared in the market and is favored by consumers; for example, Chinese patent document CN208588223U discloses a portable dryer, which specifically discloses: including an upper cover, a clothes rack, a body shell, an inner cover, a bottom shell, an electric control board, a fan, a heating device, and a bottom cover; the body shell is made of food-grade silicone material, and the body shell is a foldable shell; the inner cover presses the body shell into the bottom shell, and the bottom cover and the bottom shell are connected by screws; the clothes rack is placed in the cavity of the body shell and is located above the inner cover, and the upper cover is placed on the top of the body shell; the fan and the heating device are installed in the cavity of the bottom shell, the air outlet of the fan is connected to the air inlet of the heating device, and the fan, the heating device are electrically connected to the electric control board; an air inlet is provided on the bottom cover, and an air outlet is provided on the inner cover. However, in this dryer, the body shell is made of silicone material. This body shell will produce odor when working in a high temperature environment for a long time, which will make the clothes have odor, resulting in a poor user experience. The cause of the odor is that related substances are precipitated from the body shell. The substance will come into contact with the human body with the clothes, causing skin allergies and even affecting the health of the user. Moreover, the body shell made of silicone material is prone to calcification and cracking, and has a short service life. In addition, in order to discharge the water vapor generated during the drying process, it is generally necessary to set a number of visible through holes. The setting of the through holes will affect the overall appearance of the dryer, and the number of through holes is limited, and the water vapor discharge efficiency is low, which in turn limits the drying speed.

[0003] Therefore, further improvements are needed. Summary of the invention
