DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.

[0023] See also Figure 1 , shows a fast folding clothes drying rack of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fast folding clothes drying rack comprises an upper clothes drying assembly 1, a lower clothes drying assembly 2, a floor bracket 3, a vertical rod 4 and a positioning assembly, wherein a pair of floor brackets 3 are provided, and the pair of floor brackets 3 are symmetrically distributed, the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 are both hingedly connected to the floor bracket 3, the middle positions of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 are connected with a hinge structure, and the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 are connected by the hinge structure as shown in Figure 1 The open state shown and Figure 3The folding state shown in the figure can be switched between the vertical rods 4, a pair of vertical rods 4 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the quick folding clothes drying rack, the first end of the vertical rod 4 is hinged to the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, and the second end of the vertical rod 4 is hinged to the hinge structure of the lower clothes drying assembly 2. When the quick folding clothes drying rack is in the opened state, the vertical rod 4 can support the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2, and give the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 a certain supporting force to improve the load-bearing capacity of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2, thereby making the structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 more stable, and the positioning assembly can switch between a first state of locking the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and a second state of releasing the lock on the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, as shown in the figure. Figure 1 As shown, when the positioning assembly is in the first state, the fast folding clothes rack is in an open state, and when the positioning assembly is in the second state, the fast folding clothes rack is in a closed state. Figure 3 Shown in folded state.

[0024] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the hinge structure provided in the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is referred to as the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, and the hinge structure provided in the lower clothes drying assembly 2 is referred to as the hinge structure of the lower clothes drying assembly 2, and according to Figure 1 It can be seen that a pair of hinged structures of the upper clothes-drying component 1 and a pair of hinged structures of the lower clothes-drying component 2 are respectively provided, and the hinged structures of the pair of upper clothes-drying components 1 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper clothes-drying component 1, and the hinged structures of the pair of lower clothes-drying components 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower clothes-drying component 2.

[0025] The two ends of the positioning assembly are respectively connected to a pair of vertical rods 4 in a sliding manner. Figure 1 As shown, when the positioning assembly slides along the vertical rod 4 to the first end, the positioning assembly locks the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, specifically, at least part of the positioning assembly is buckled on the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the positioning assembly is in the first state. Figure 3 As shown, when the positioning assembly slides to the second end along the vertical rod 4, the positioning assembly releases the locking effect on the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, that is, the positioning assembly is in the second state.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is provided with a positioning groove 81, and the positioning assembly includes a cross bar 5 and a pair of slides 6, the pair of slides 6 are respectively arranged at both ends of the cross bar 5, and the slides 6 are provided with connecting holes, which are tightly matched with the cross bar 5. Figure 2It can be seen that when the fast folding clothes drying rack is in the open state, the two ends of the cross bar 5 are respectively engaged with the positioning grooves 81, and the slide 6 is slidably connected with the vertical rod 4. When the fast folding clothes drying rack is in the open state, the positioning assembly can make the slide 6 slide downward along the vertical rod 4 under the action of its own gravity, and the two ends of the cross bar 5 fall to respectively engage with the positioning grooves 81, thereby locking the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, so that the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is in a stable open state, thereby preventing the fast folding clothes drying rack from automatically shrinking due to the excessive weight of the clothes to be hung; and when the fast folding clothes drying rack needs to be folded, the cross bar 5 can be lifted by one hand to make the slide 6 slide upward along the vertical rod 4, so that the two ends of the cross bar 5 are respectively disengaged from the positioning grooves 81, thereby making the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 automatically fold under the action of their own gravity, that is, the fast folding clothes drying rack can be automatically folded.

[0027] In order to realize the sliding of the sliding plate 6 on the vertical rod 4, the sliding plate 6 is provided with a first sliding groove 61, and the vertical rod 4 is slidably connected to the first sliding groove 61 through a first rivet.

[0028] In this embodiment, the positioning groove 81 is square, and the cross bar 5 is round. By making the square positioning groove 81 and the round cross bar 5 snap-fit, the cross bar 5 and the positioning groove 81 can be in line contact, which can ensure the locking is stable, and can also avoid the inconvenience of folding caused by the tight fit between the cross bar 5 and the positioning groove 81. Therefore, the square positioning groove 81 and the round cross bar 5 can play a role in rapid folding. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning groove 81 and the cross bar 5 can also be in other shapes, as long as the effect of easy folding can be achieved. Preferably, the two right-angle positions of the square positioning groove 81 use arc structures for transition connection, that is, the two side walls and the bottom wall of the positioning groove 81 use arc structures for transition connection. This arrangement can avoid the cross bar 5 and the positioning groove 81 from being too tight.

[0029] Specifically, the upper clothes drying assembly 1 includes a pair of upper clothes drying racks 11 symmetrically hinged to each other, and the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 includes a pair of first connecting members 8, and the upper clothes drying racks 11 are hingedly connected by the first connecting members 8. For details, please refer to Figure 1 The first connecting member 8 and the vertical rod 4 respectively arranged on a pair of upper clothes drying racks 11 can be riveted together by rivets, and the positioning groove 81 is opened on the first connecting member 8.

[0030] The lower clothes drying assembly 2 includes a pair of lower clothes drying racks 21 symmetrically hinged to each other. The hinge structure of the lower clothes drying assembly 2 includes a pair of second connecting members 9. The lower clothes drying racks 21 are hingedly connected by the second connecting members 9. Figure 1 The second connecting members 9 and the vertical rods 4 respectively arranged on a pair of lower clothes drying racks 21 can be riveted together by another rivet.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to further improve the load-bearing capacity of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, the quick-folding clothes drying rack also includes two pairs of oblique rods 7, each pair of oblique rods 7 is symmetrically distributed about the vertical rods 4 and each pair of oblique rods 7 is arranged in a V shape to form a stable supporting structure, wherein the first end of the oblique rod 7 is hinged to one of the upper clothes drying racks 11 in the upper clothes drying assembly 1, the second end of the oblique rod 7 is hinged to the vertical rod 4, and the second end of the oblique rod 7 can slide along the vertical rod 4, when the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is in an open state, a pair of upper clothes drying racks 11 are supported by the cross bar 5, so that the upper clothes drying racks 11 can maintain a stable open state, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity of the upper clothes drying rack 11, and when the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is in a folded state, the second end of the oblique rod 7 can slide along the vertical rod 4, thereby releasing the supporting effect of the oblique rod 7 on the upper clothes drying rack 11, so as to facilitate folding.

[0032] In order to realize the sliding connection between the second end of the inclined rod 7 and the vertical rod 4, the vertical rod 4 is provided with a second slide groove 41, and the second end of the inclined rod 7 is slidably matched with the second slide groove 41 through a second rivet, and Figure 1 It can be seen that the second ends of each pair of inclined rods 7 are riveted together by the second rivet. When the second ends of the inclined rods 7 slide upward along the second slide grooves 41 to the position, each pair of inclined rods 7 is in a fully opened state, which is convenient for supporting the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, and when the second ends of each pair of inclined rods 7 slide downward along the second slide grooves 41 to the position, each pair of inclined rods 7 is in a contracted state.

[0033] It can be understood that the hinged connections mentioned in the present embodiment are all riveted connections through rivets. Of course, in other embodiments, the hinged connection can also be achieved by pin connection.

[0034] The working principle of the fast folding clothes drying rack of this embodiment is as follows:

[0035] When folding, the cross bar 5 is lifted by one or both hands, so that the slide plate 6 slides upward to the right position, and the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 shrink toward the direction close to the vertical rod 4 under the action of their own gravity, and the inclined rod 7 slides downward along the second slide groove 41 under the drive of the upper clothes drying assembly 1, and the floor support 3 also moves toward the direction close to the vertical rod 4 under the joint drive of the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2, until the quick folding clothes drying rack is as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The open state shown is switched to Figure 3 to the folded state shown.

[0036] When opening, the floor bracket 3 can be moved in a direction away from the vertical rod 4 at the same time, so that the upper clothes drying assembly 1 and the lower clothes drying assembly 2 are opened under the pulling action of the floor bracket 3, and at the same time, the inclined rod 7 is also opened under the pulling action of the upper clothes drying assembly 1. Figure 3 The folded state shown is switched to Figure 1 In the open state shown, the slide 6 slides downward under the action of its own weight and the pressure of the cross bar 5. At the same time, the cross bar 5 is engaged with the positioning groove 81 under the pull of the slide 6, and the upper clothes drying assembly 1 is locked.

[0037] The fast folding clothes drying rack of this embodiment has the following advantages over the prior art:

[0038] 1. By arranging a vertical rod 4, the two ends of the vertical rod 4 are respectively hinged to the hinge structure of the upper clothes drying component 1 and the hinge structure of the lower clothes drying component 2. When the quick folding clothes drying rack is in an open state, a certain supporting force can be given to the upper clothes drying component 1 and the lower clothes drying component 2 to improve the load-bearing capacity of the upper clothes drying component 1 and the lower clothes drying component 2, thereby making the structure of the upper clothes drying component 1 and the lower clothes drying component 2 more stable.

[0039] 2. By setting a positioning component, the positioning component can switch between a first state of locking the hinged structure of the upper clothes drying component 1 and a second state of loosening the locking of the hinged structure of the upper clothes drying component 1. When the positioning component is in the first state, the quick folding clothes rack is in an open state, and when the positioning component is in the second state, the quick folding clothes rack is in a folded state. That is, by switching the positioning component between the first state and the second state, the quick folding clothes rack can be switched between the open state and the folded state. The folding method is simple, the folding operation is fast and convenient, and it can be operated with one hand, which greatly improves the convenience during folding and improves the user experience.

[0040] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
