Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a convenient clothes drying rack for indoor use in a high-rise building, belonging to the field of residential furniture. Background Art

[0002] As my country's urbanization process continues to accelerate, the height of apartment buildings is getting higher and higher, the indoor light space is small, and the space for drying clothes is also small. It is extremely inconvenient to put a lot of clothes downstairs to dry in today's ever-faster pace of life. The traditional method of drying clothes indoors in high-rise buildings cannot provide good ventilation and light, and the method of hanging clothes through windows has great safety hazards. Therefore, how to make full use of limited space to dry clothes is an urgent problem that most high-rise residents need to solve.

[0003] Currently, there are two types of high-altitude clothes drying racks: window-type clothes drying racks and clothes drying racks fixed on the exterior walls. However, for residential communities, the windows are unified and private modifications will affect the overall appearance. Clothes drying racks fixed on the exterior walls pose a safety hazard and can easily fall off. Summary of the invention

[0006] Preferably, the clothes rack is composed of four clothes-drying tubes whose two ends are connected to support rods, the support rods and connecting rods are staggered and connected to each other, and finally connected to the clothes-drying cart through a fixed bracket.

[0007] Preferably, the upper body, middle body and lower body of the clothes drying cart form a liftable trolley, the hook is fixed to the lower trolley, and the lower trolley is equipped with wheels.

[0008] Preferably, the support pad is connected to the automatic retraction box through a push rod; the pad block slider is sleeved inside the pad block and is connected through a support spring, a spring washer and an adjusting screw to form a support pad; the slider A is sleeved in the shell, the lower ends of the slider A are connected to each other through a quick retraction spring, the upper end of the slider A is connected to the clothes drying pipe through a stretch rope, the slider spring block is sleeved in the slider A, and is connected to each other through the slider spring; the automatic retraction box is connected to the middle part of the pry plate, the upper part of the pry plate is aligned with the side wall hole of the automatic retraction box, and the lower part of the pry plate is connected to the push rod.

[0009] Preferably, the wall hook is formed by welding an expansion bolt and a hook, and is used in the same manner as the expansion bolt.

[0010] Preferably, the hook is rotatable and connected to a hook on the wall during operation.

[0011] Preferably, the support spring is a pressure spring, the pressure of which can be adjusted by an adjusting screw, the slider spring is a pressure spring, and the quick-contraction spring is a tension spring.

[0012] Preferably, the pads of the two support pads are welded together through a slender round rod, and the pad block slider of the clothes drying support pad is fixed to the upper body of the clothes drying cart.

[0013] Compared with the existing household clothes drying rack, the portable high-altitude clothes drying rack of the present invention has the following characteristics and advantages:

[0014] 1. The present invention does not require the installation of clothes hangers on high-altitude exterior walls or the modification of windows into clothes-drying windows, thereby improving safety and preserving the overall appearance of the community.

[0015] 2. The clothes hanger and the trolley of the present invention have a telescopic function, which can adjust the height and the extension length of the clothes to facilitate drying clothes. When not in use, they can also be retracted to facilitate storage and improve space utilization.

[0016] 3. The present invention adds an automatic retracting device to retract the hanger when the clothes being hung out to dry are overweight, thereby preventing the hanger from falling from a high altitude.

According to the data, the wall hook can provide a pulling force of 500N, and the two hooks can provide a pulling force of F pull = 1000N. The gravity arm L weight = 0.8xcos60 = 0.57, and the pulling arm L pull = 1m. Since an accident in the device will cause great harm, the safety factor n is set to 5. Therefore, the weight of the clothes to be dried is approximately G allowable = L pull F pull / nL weight = 188.9N, which can dry about 2-3 quilts.

[0036] First embodiment:

[0037] See also Fig. 9 When the portable high-altitude clothes drying rack is ready for use, the clothes drying rack can be pushed to the window first, the height of the clothes drying rack 2 can be adjusted so that the support pad 31 is against the lower edge of the window, the hook 24 on the clothes drying rack is connected to the wall hook 4, the clothes to be dried are placed on the clothes hanger 1, and the stretching degree of the clothes hanger 1 is adjusted so that the clothes are extended out of the window to obtain sufficient light, so as to achieve a better drying effect;

[0038] See also Fig.10 When the portable high-altitude clothes drying rack is used, the clothes hanger 1 is retracted, the clothes are taken off, and then the hook 24 of the clothes hanger and the wall hook 4 are loosened, the clothes drying cart 2 is retracted, and pushed to the storage place to improve space utilization.

[0039] Second embodiment:

[0040] When the portable high-altitude clothes drying rack is in use, there may be strong winds blowing, which may cause the clothes drying rack to exceed the load and cause the clothes drying rack to tip over. Therefore, an automatic retraction device 3 is added for assistance; when the force exceeds the set force, the automatic retraction device 3 works to drive the clothes drying rack to contract, reduce the lever arm, and prevent tipping.

[0041] For those skilled in the art, according to the teachings of the present invention, without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, changes, modifications, substitutions and variations made to the implementation methods are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
