DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] 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.

[0040] Embodiment 1

[0041] An integrated air guide system is applied at the air outlet of the axial flow fan 9. A disinfection device 51 is integrated in the air guide system to expand the air sweeping range of the fan 9 and the disinfection range, thereby improving the drying efficiency.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the integrated air guide system in this embodiment includes a sleeve member 3, an air guide wheel 2, a hanger 1 and a disinfection device 51, wherein the outer surface of the sleeve member 3 is sleeved with a bearing 4, and the air guide wheel 2 is sleeved outside the bearing 4, and the air guide wheel 2 and the sleeve member 3 are relatively rotated by the bearing 4; an axial hole 22 is provided in the middle of the air guide wheel 2, and an air guide blade 21 is provided at a position outside the axial hole 22, and the air guide blade 21 rotates under the wind drive of the axial flow fan 9, thereby achieving an air guiding effect.

[0043] The end of the sleeve member 3 passes through the axial hole 22 of the air guide wheel 2 and is connected to the hanger 1, so that the hanger 1 is mounted outside the air guide wheel 2; and a circuit board 5 is provided at the bottom of the sleeve member 3, and a disinfection device 51 is integrated on the lower surface of the circuit board 5, so that the disinfection device 51 is located exactly on the air outlet path of the integrated air guide system in this embodiment, which can expand the disinfection range of the disinfection device 51.

[0044] In order to further expand the air outlet range, the plurality of sequentially arranged air guide blades 21 on the air guide wheel 2 are set to be a structure that is inclined in the same direction, and the orthographic projection area of ​​the plurality of sequentially arranged air guide blades 21 on the horizontal plane gradually increases and is always kept smaller than the surface area of ​​the air guide blades 21, that is, the inclination angle of the plurality of sequentially arranged air guide blades 21 gradually increases and the maximum inclination angle of the air guide blades 21 does not exceed 90°; in this embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, among the multiple wind guide blades 21 arranged from left to right, the inclination angle of the leftmost wind guide blade 21 is 0°, that is, the leftmost wind guide blade 21 is in a vertical state, and the inclination angle of the multiple wind guide blades 21 arranged from left to right gradually increases, but is always less than 90°, that is, the rightmost wind guide blade 21 is not in a horizontal state. The wind guide wheel 2 of this structure makes the ventilation gaps between adjacent wind guide blades 21 different, and the ventilation gaps gradually decrease from left to right, so that when the wind guide wheel 2 is subjected to axial airflow, the axial airflow blows vertically to the inclined wind guide blade 21, thereby generating an unbalanced force to cause it to rotate, so that the axial airflow can be diffused to the surroundings under the action of the wind guide blade 21, expanding the air outlet range.

[0045] At the same time, in order to improve the overall aesthetics of the air guide wheel 2, the positive projection area of ​​each air guide blade 21 on the same vertical plane is set to be the same, and as the inclination angles of the multiple air guide blades 21 gradually increase, the surface area of ​​the air guide blades 21 also gradually increases, so that the upper and lower surfaces of the air guide wheel 2 are both in a horizontal state, thereby improving the rotation stability of the air guide wheel 2.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, a fixed disc 11 is provided in the middle of the hanger 1, and the diameter of the fixed disc 11 is larger than the axial hole 22 of the guide wheel 2; and a plurality of beams 12 are evenly distributed between the fixed disc 11 and the outer wall of the hanger 1, and the orthographic projection area of ​​each beam 12 on the horizontal plane is the same as the upper surface area and the lower surface area of ​​the beam 12, that is, each beam 12 is in a vertical state, so as to avoid the beam 12 blocking the passage of airflow or avoiding the beam 12 changing the direction of airflow; a plurality of beams 12 are evenly distributed and the extension lines of the plurality of beams 12 intersect at the center position of the fixed disc 11, so that the space between the fixed disc 11 and the outer wall of the hanger 1 is evenly divided into a plurality of ventilation zones of the same area, so as to ensure that the ventilation volume of each ventilation zone is the same.

[0047] A clamping hole 13 is provided at the center of the fixed disc 11 , and the clamping hole 13 is used for clamping with the sleeve member 3 .

[0048] The sleeve member 3 is configured as a hollow cylindrical structure. Figure 6 As shown, the sleeve member 3 is composed of three hollow cylinders with different diameters, so that a first step surface 31, a second step surface 34 and a third step surface 36 with gradually increasing outer diameters are sequentially formed on the outer wall of the sleeve member 3.

[0049] The first step surface 31 is provided with a first buckle 32 and a fixing position 33, and the two fixing positions 33 are both set as arc structures. The two fixing positions 33 are arranged relative to each other so that the cross section of the first step surface 31 is a non-closed circular structure; and a first buckle 32 is provided between two adjacent fixing positions 33, and there is a certain gap between the first buckle 32 and the fixing position 33, so that the first buckle 32 has a certain compression elasticity. When the first step surface 31 is engaged with the hanger 1, the first buckle 32 abuts against the engaging hole 13 and undergoes a small elastic deformation, so that the first step surface 31 can be inserted into the engaging hole 13. When the first step surface 31 is fully inserted into the engaging hole 13, the first buckle 32 is not squeezed and restores the elastic deformation, so that the first buckle 32 and the engaging hole 13 are engaged with each other.

[0050] In addition, if Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, a fixing groove 331 extending in the axial direction is provided on the clamping hole 13, and a protrusion 131 corresponding to the fixing groove 331 is provided on the outer surface of the fixing position 33, so that when the hanger 1 is clamped with the sleeve member 3, the protrusion 131 is correspondingly clamped into the fixing groove 331, ensuring that the hanger 1 and the sleeve member 3 are relatively stationary, and neither the hanger 1 nor the sleeve member 3 rotates with the rotation of the guide wheel 2.

[0051] A second elastic buckle 35 is provided on the second step surface 34 of the sleeve member 3, and the bearing 4 is sleeved outside the second step surface 34. The second buckle 35 abuts against the bearing 4, so that the bearing 4 is limited in the gap between the second buckle 35 and the third step surface 36 to prevent the bearing 4 from axial displacement.

[0052] An elastic third buckle 37 is provided on the inner wall of the third step surface 36, and a circuit board 5 is provided inside the third step surface 36. The circuit board 5 is limited in the third step surface 36 by the third buckle 37, so that the circuit board 5 is hidden and clamped in the sleeve member 3. The buckle assembly makes the circuit board 5 and the sleeve member 3 detachable, and a disinfection device 51 is connected to the lower surface of the circuit board 5. When the circuit in the circuit board 5 or the disinfection device 51 is damaged and needs to be replaced, the third buckle 37 is squeezed and tilted outward, providing sufficient space for the circuit board 5 to be loaded and unloaded, realizing tool-free assembly and improving assembly flexibility.

[0053] The disinfection device 51 can be set as one or more of a combination of ultraviolet lamps, negative ion generators, ozone generators or plasma generators, wherein the ultraviolet lamp emits ultraviolet light, and uses ultraviolet light for sterilization and disinfection, while the negative ion generator, ozone generator and plasma generator generate negative ions, ozone and plasma to achieve the effect of sterilization and air purification. The disinfection device 51 is installed at the bottom of the sleeve member 3. Under the sweeping action of the air guide wheel 2, the ions emitted by the disinfection device 51 can be diffused to a farther place with the air flow, thereby expanding the scope of sterilization and disinfection and improving the sterilization and purification effect.

[0054] The disinfection equipment 51 on the lower surface of the circuit board 5 is mainly concentrated in the middle part of the circuit board 5. Since the ultraviolet light or disinfection ions emitted by the disinfection equipment 51 are invisible to the naked eye, in order to allow the user to know the working status of the disinfection equipment 51 immediately, an indicator light 52 is provided on the lower surface of the circuit board 5; the indicator light 52 emits visible light, and the indicator light 52 is connected in series with the disinfection equipment 51, so that when the disinfection equipment 51 is turned on, the indicator light 52 is turned on synchronously, and when the disinfection equipment 51 is turned off, the indicator light 52 is turned off synchronously. When the disinfection equipment 51 fails abnormally, the user can judge whether the disinfection equipment 51 is currently working normally by observing whether the indicator light 52 is lit.

[0055] like Figure 7 As shown, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis are established with the middle of the circuit board 5 as the origin and divided into four quadrants, and the indicator light 52 is provided in each quadrant, so that the user can directly observe the status of the indicator light 52 at any angle; and the number of colors of the indicator light 52 is the same as the number of types of the disinfection equipment 51 on the circuit board 5, and the indicator lights 52 of the same color are distributed in at least two quadrants on the diagonal position, and the indicator lights 52 of the same color are connected in series with a corresponding disinfection equipment 51. When the disinfection equipment 51 is set as an ultraviolet lamp and a negative ion generator, the ultraviolet lamp is connected in series with the red indicator light 52, and the negative ion generator is connected in series with the green indicator light 52, and the red indicator light 52 is distributed in the first and third quadrants or the second and fourth quadrants, while the green indicator light 52 is distributed in a quadrant different from the red indicator light 52, which can avoid the indicator lights 52 of two different colors being too close to each other, resulting in the overlap of the irradiation range, so that the color fusion of the indicator lights 52 cannot be distinguished by the naked eye. When the ultraviolet lamp is working, the red indicator lights 52 in the two quadrants on the diagonal position are lit. If an abnormality occurs in the ultraviolet lamp during startup, resulting in a circuit failure, the red indicator lights 52 will not be lit. The indicator lights 52 of different colors are relatively independent and will not affect each other.

[0056] A cover body 6 is installed at the bottom of the third step surface 36. Figure 8 As shown, the cover body 6 is recessed with a disinfection hole 61 at a position directly opposite to the disinfection device 51, so that the light or sterilizing ions emitted by the disinfection device 51 can pass through the disinfection hole 61 to reach the lower area of ​​the air guide system. The shortest distance between the center point of the disinfection hole 61 and each point on the outer edge line of the cover body 6 is the same, that is, the disinfection hole 61 is located at the center of the cover body 6, and the aperture of the disinfection hole 61 gradually increases from top to bottom, so that the disinfection light or disinfection ions emitted by the disinfection device 51 can be emitted from the central position of the air guide system, and gradually diffuse downward in a radial shape under the guidance of the disinfection hole 61, so that the disinfection and purification range is diffused directly below the air guide system.

[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, the orthographic projection of the cover body 6 on the horizontal plane just falls within the orthographic projection range of the fixed disk 11 on the horizontal plane, and the orthographic projection area of ​​the cover body 6 on the horizontal plane is smaller than the orthographic projection area of ​​the fixed disk 11 on the horizontal plane, thereby avoiding the airflow in the ventilation area directly blowing on the cover body 6, causing the cover body 6 to be subjected to excessive pressure, thereby improving the service life of the cover body 6.

[0058] A light-transmitting area 62 is provided on the cover body 6, and the light-transmitting area 62 can be made of transparent plastic or glass. The light-transmitting area 62 is distributed on the cover body 6 outside the disinfection hole 61, and the light-transmitting area 62 is opposite to the indicator light 52, so that the visible light emitted by the indicator light 52 can be refracted through the light-transmitting area 62, thereby prompting the user of the working status of the disinfection device 51.

[0059] In addition, the light-transmitting area 62 is evenly distributed with inwardly recessed refraction blocks 63, such as Figure 8 As shown, each of the refraction blocks 63 is provided with an inverted pyramid structure having multiple refraction sides, so that the visible light emitted by the indicator light 52 can change the irradiation angle of the visible light after passing through the refraction block 63 having multiple refraction sides; the multiple refraction blocks 63 are evenly arranged into a refraction ring area corresponding to the outer contour shape of the disinfection hole 61, and the multiple refraction ring areas with a curvature radius gradually increasing from the inside to the outside are sequentially surrounded by the disinfection hole 61, so that the irradiation range of the indicator light 52 is expanded and the prompt effect is increased. At the same time, the indicator light 52 not only plays a prompt role, but also has the effect of lighting and atmosphere light.

[0060] A connection terminal 53 is provided on the lower surface of the circuit board 5. Figure 7As shown, the wiring terminal 53 is connected to a power line 54 for providing power to the disinfection device 51 and the indicator light 52. A wire hole 55 is provided on one side of the circuit board 5 close to the wiring terminal 53, so that the power line 54 connected to the wiring terminal 53 can extend into the sleeve member 3 through the wire hole 55. Since the sleeve member 3 is a hollow structure, the power line 54 passes through the hollow interior of the sleeve member 3 and then passes through the clamping hole 13 of the hanger 1 and extends to the top of the hanger 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the power cord 54 is isolated from the air guide wheel 2, and the sleeve member 3 and the hanger 1 are relatively still, so that the power cord 54 is relatively stable and not affected by the air guide wheel 2, thereby preventing the power cord 54 from being entangled on the air guide wheel 2 when the air guide wheel 2 rotates, thereby causing a malfunction of the air guide system.

[0061] At the same time, Figure 4 As shown, a wire clamp 14 for fixing the power cord 54 is provided on the upper surface of the fixing disc 11, and the wire clamp 14 is located on the extension line of any one of the beams 12, and a wire groove 15 is provided on the beam 12 directly facing the wire clamp 14. After the power cord 54 extends to the top of the hanger 1, it is fixed to the hanger 1 through the wire clamp 14, and the power cord 54 can also be accommodated in the wire groove 15, so that the protrusion of the power cord 54 is prevented from contacting the axial flow fan 9 above the air guide system, thereby improving the service life of the power cord 54.

[0062] In this embodiment, the bottom of the outer wall of the hanger 1 is provided with a limiting ring 18 extending outward. When the hanger 1 is mounted outside the guide wheel 2, the lower edge line of the limiting ring 18 (such as Figure 3 The A line in FIG. 1 is lower than the lower edge line of the guide wheel 2 (such as Figure 3 B line in the figure), so that there is a certain gap between the lower edge line of the limiting ring 18 and the lower edge line of the guide wheel 2, so as to avoid the protrusion of the guide wheel 2 and cause a safety accident when the guide wheel 2 rotates; and an elastic protrusion 17 inclined outward is provided on the outer wall of the hanger 1, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, the orthographic projection of the elastic protrusion 17 on the horizontal plane falls within the orthographic projection of the limiting ring 18 on the horizontal plane; and the outer diameter of the hanger 1 is the same as the aperture of the vent 8 on the clothes drying machine panel, so that when the hanger 1 is installed on the vent 8 on the clothes drying machine panel, the elastic protrusion 17 abuts against the upper surface of the clothes drying machine panel to prevent the hanger 1 from falling. At the same time, the limiting ring 18 is exposed outside the vent 8, and the outer diameter of the limiting ring 18 is larger than the aperture of the vent 8, so that the hanger 1 moves upward; the hanger 1 is stably limited at the vent 8 by the elastic protrusion 17 and the limiting ring 18.

[0063] At the same time, a bent portion 171 extending in a vertical downward direction is provided at the bottom of the inclined elastic protrusion 17, and the bent portion 171 in a vertical state can improve the stability of the elastic protrusion 17 against the upper surface of the panel; a receiving hole 16 is provided at a position of the outer wall of the hanger 1 opposite to the elastic protrusion 17, and the lower edge line of the receiving hole 16 is located in the gap between the lower edge line of the outer wall of the hanger 1 (in this embodiment, the lower edge line A of the limiting ring 18) and the lower edge line (B line) of the air guide wheel 2, so that when the elastic protrusion 17 is squeezed inward, the bent portion 171 is correspondingly inserted into the receiving hole 16 located in the gap between the lower edge line of the outer wall of the hanger 1 and the lower edge line of the air guide wheel 2, so that the compression range of the elastic protrusion 17 is increased, so as to avoid the bending portion 171 of the elastic protrusion 17 against the air guide wheel 2 or the outer wall of the hanger 1 during the compression process, causing the elastic protrusion 17 cannot be completely compressed into the accommodating hole 16; when the hanger 1 needs to be disassembled, all the elastic protrusions 17 on the outer wall of the hanger 1 are pressed into the corresponding accommodating holes 16 at the same time, and correspondingly, the bent portion 171 can also be compressed into the accommodating hole 16 below the air guide wheel 2. At this time, the elastic protrusion 17 no longer abuts against the panel, so that the hanger 1 can move downward until it is separated from the vent 8, thereby achieving the effect of removing the entire air guide system; when the air guide system needs to be installed, the hanger 1 is moved upward from the bottom of the vent 8, and the elastic protrusion 17 is squeezed by the vent 8 and compressed into the accommodating hole 16. When it moves to the point where the limit ring 18 abuts against the lower surface of the panel, the elastic protrusion 17 moves away from the vent 8 and restores its elastic deformation, so that the bent portion 171 of the elastic protrusion 17 abuts against the upper surface of the panel again, and the loading and unloading operations of the air guide system can be completed.

[0064] All accessories in the air guide system of this embodiment are assembled in a snap-fit ​​manner, and the assembly process is simple. Individual accessories can be replaced when necessary, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, this embodiment integrates air drying and disinfection functions together, with a compact structure and simple appearance. It can expand the wind sweeping area and the disinfection range, greatly improving the drying efficiency.

[0065] Embodiment 2
