In addition, the ventilation holes 400 can be multiple or one. The multiple ventilation holes 400 can cover the storage arc plate or be set into other shaped and sized holes. It should also be noted that the aforementioned storage arc plate 40 can be used to place clothes (such as shirts, socks, trousers, etc.) or toys or other suitable items.
[0054] The second specific embodiment, in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the object hanger 4 is a storage bracket 41. The storage bracket 41 includes at least one ring body 410 and at least one storage rod 411. The ring body 410 is arranged on the side wall of the operation component 3, and the storage rod 411 is arranged on the side wall of the ring body 410. The storage bracket 41 with the aforementioned structure is convenient for hanging the clothes to be dried to avoid the clothes from falling off and is convenient to use.
[0055] In combination with Figure 9 As shown, in the second specific embodiment, for the specific structure of the storage bracket 41, the ring body 410 includes a first steel ring part 410a, a second steel ring part 410b, and a third steel ring part 410c that are alternately distributed along the circumferential direction. The storage rod 411 includes several connecting rod parts 411a and several hanging rod parts 411b. Each connecting rod part 411a is welded between the first steel ring part 410a, the second steel ring part 410b, and the third steel ring part 410c along the circumferential direction at intervals. The longitudinal rod part of each hanging rod part 411b is welded to the third steel ring part 410c. The inclined folding rod part of each hanging rod part 411b is an integral part formed by inclining and extending downward from the end of the longitudinal rod part of each hanging rod part 411b and then inclining and bending upward. When in use, the user can hang the clothes to be dried on the inclined folding rod part of the hanging rod part 411b, which can prevent the clothes from falling off, make the placement of the clothes more stable, and is convenient to use.
[0056] In combination with Figure 9As shown, in the second specific embodiment, the first steel ring portion 410a is disposed below at least one rotary buckle 3a on the side wall of the operation component 3, and the rotary buckle 3a on the side wall of the operation component 3 is screwed together with a corresponding buckle groove (not shown in the figure) provided on the inner side wall of the inner cylinder;
[0057] Alternatively, the first steel ring portion 410a is integrally provided on the side wall of the operation component 3. It should be noted that: the aforementioned rotary buckles 3a are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction in three, and can also be set to other appropriate numbers, such as two or four, etc.
[0058] As described above, a clothes dryer provided with a spiral spring drive device according to the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0059] After the clothes dryer provided with the spiral spring drive device is used in the present invention, compared with the prior art, due to the adoption of
[0060] such a structure and the setting of the spiral spring drive device, when the user moves the operation component downward in the longitudinal direction, the inclined plate portion of the upper transverse moving body of the moving block in contact and cooperation with the operation component moves towards the left side wall opening, causing the cylinder of the upper transverse moving body of the moving block to compress the spring and the winding plate body of the spiral spring to move upward, that is, causing the entire drive device to move upward in the longitudinal direction; on the contrary, after releasing the hand, under the action of the spring and the spiral spring, the entire drive device automatically restores; thus, the longitudinal height of the placement plate can be quickly adjusted, with short operation time, fast, convenient and quick.
[0061] In summary, the present invention effectively overcomes various disadvantages in the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.
[0062] The above embodiments are only illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention. Any person familiar with this technology can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
