[0020] 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.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention discloses a clothes drying machine with a folding device, including a clothes drying machine main unit 20, two telescopic brackets 10, located below the clothes drying machine main unit 20, each of the telescopic brackets 10 has a horizontally arranged support rod 1 and a folding device 2 installed on the support rod 1, the folding device 2 extends upward to connect the clothes drying machine main unit 20; two clothes drying rods 30 are arranged in parallel and are respectively fixed to the opposite ends of the two support rods 1.

[0022] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the upper surface of each support rod 1 is recessed downward to form a receiving space 11, and the folding device 2 is installed on the bottom surface of the receiving space 11, so that the folding device 2 extends out from the receiving space 11. When the folding device 2 is folded to the final state, more than half of the folding device 2 is received in the receiving space 11, so that the thickness of the clothes drying machine after folding can be reduced, which is convenient for product packaging and transportation. In other embodiments, the depth of the receiving space 11 can be increased according to actual needs and product structure, so that the folding device 2 can be completely received in the receiving space 11 after folding, which is not limited here.

[0023] The folding device 2 is composed of a plurality of folding pieces 21 connected end to end and staggered and assembled with each other. Each of the folding pieces 21 has a horizontally arranged connecting portion 211, and a first stopper 212 and a second stopper 213 extending upward and downward from two opposite edges of the connecting portion 211, respectively. A bolt hole 214 is respectively arranged at the end and the middle of each second stopper 213. A plurality of bolts pass through the plurality of bolt holes 214, respectively, so that the plurality of folding pieces 21 are assembled to form the folding device 2. In this way, two connected second stoppers 213 are attached to each other, and there is a gap between two adjacent first stoppers 212. When the clothes drying rod 30 rises to the highest height and the folding device 2 is folded to the final state, the two adjacent second stoppers 213 are accommodated in the gap between the two adjacent first stoppers 212, which greatly reduces the volume of the folding device 2 after folding and folding, reduces the thickness of the clothes drying machine, realizes the purpose of having as much height space as possible when hanging the clothes drying machine in the house, and also increases the convenience of packaging and transportation of the clothes drying machine. Furthermore, the connecting portion 211 is arranged horizontally, and the first stopper 212 and the second stopper 213 are inclined toward each other, so that the folding device 2 guides the adjacent second stopper 213 into the adjacent first stopper 212 during the folding process, thereby reducing interference and increasing the service life of the product. In addition, the thickness of the second stopper 213 is greater than that of the first stopper 212, and the plate surface of the first stopper 212 is flat, and there are no holes on the plate surface, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the folding sheet 21.

[0024] The main beneficial effects of the clothes drying machine with a folding device of the present invention are:

[0025] (1) After the folding device 2 is folded, the adjacent second stopper parts 213 are accommodated in the gap between the adjacent first stopper parts 212, so that the folding device 2 is more compact after folding, and the clothes drying rod 30 can be raised to a higher height, saving the height space of the house.

[0026] (2) The thickness of the second stopping portion 213 is greater than the thickness of the first stopping portion 212 , which reduces the risk of the second stopping portion 213 breaking when the bolt hole 214 is opened on the second stopping portion 213 , thereby increasing the structural strength of the entire folding sheet 21 .

[0027] 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.
