[0037] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] like Figure 1-Figure 17 As shown, the automatic clothes drying device of this embodiment includes a cabinet 1, and an air drying mechanism 2, a clothes hanging mechanism 3 and an automatic ironing mechanism 4 arranged in the cabinet 1. The air drying mechanism 2 can inhale the humid air in the cabinet 1, dry it, and then output dry air to the cabinet 1 to dry the clothes, while the clothes hanging mechanism 3 is used to hang the clothes to be dried, and the clothes can be hung on the clothes hanging mechanism 3 through a clothes drying rack. In addition, the automatic ironing mechanism 4 can automatically iron the clothes on the clothes hanging mechanism 3, so as to finally complete the ironing operation of the clothes after the drying process.

[0039] In order to dry the clothes more thoroughly, corresponding improvements are made to the clothes drying rack 5. The clothes drying rack 5 is used to hang the clothes to be dried in the drying space. Air outlets 50 are provided at both ends of the clothes drying rack 5. The clothes drying rack 5 is also provided with a hot air module 52 for supplying drying hot air to the air outlets 50.

[0040] In actual use, the clothes are hung in the cabinet 1 through the clothes drying rack 5. During the drying process, the clothes are dried by the air drying mechanism 2 in the cabinet 1, and the armpits of the clothes are dried in a targeted manner through the hot air module 52 configured in the clothes drying rack 5. In this way, the problem that the armpits of the clothes are not easy to dry can be solved, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0041] In some embodiments, the clothes drying rack 5 further includes: a frame 51, the frame 51 is a hollow structure, the two ends of the frame 51 are provided with air outlets 50 connected to the hollow structure, and the top of the frame 51 is provided with a hook 511; the hot air module 52 is arranged in the hollow structure. Specifically, the outer contour of the frame 51 can refer to the structural form of a conventional clothes hanger in order to meet the requirements of hanging clothes. A hollow structure is formed in the frame 51 to meet the installation requirements of the hot air module 52. At the same time, the hot air generated by the hot air module 52 is blown out from the hollow frame 51 to dry the armpits of the clothes with hot air.

[0042] In addition, for the hot air module 52, its main function is to output hot air. For this purpose, the hot air module 52 may include an air duct 521, an electric heating component 523 and a fan 522. The electric heating component 523 and the fan 522 are arranged in the air duct 521. The air duct 521 is arranged in the hollow structure and is used to blow the output hot air to the air outlet 50. When drying clothes, the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522 are powered on and run, and the fan 522 drives the air to flow in the air duct 521. The air output from the air duct 521 will be heated by the electric heating component 523 to form hot air. The hot air output from the air duct 521 is output through the air outlet 50 to directly blow hot air to the armpit area of ​​the clothes. In order to ensure smooth ventilation, a vent (not shown) connected to the hollow structure can also be arranged on the top of the frame 51; the two ends of the hollow structure are respectively provided with hot air modules 52, the inlet of the air duct 521 faces the vent, and the outlet of the air duct 521 faces the corresponding air outlet 50.

[0043] Furthermore, in order to meet the power supply requirements of the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522, the clothes drying rack 5 further includes: a power supply module 53, and the power supply module 53 is used to supply power to the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522. Specifically, since the clothes drying rack 5 is arranged independently of the cabinet 1, the clothes drying rack 5 needs to be equipped with an independent power supply module 53 to supply power to the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522.

[0044] The power supply module 53 may be in various forms. For example, the power supply module 53 is a battery disposed on the frame 51. Specifically, when drying clothes, the battery discharges to supply power to the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522. Alternatively, the power supply module 53 is a power receiving coil, and a power transmission coil (not shown) is also provided in the cabinet 1. When drying clothes, the clothes drying rack 5 enters the cabinet 1, and wireless power is supplied by configuring the power transmission coil and the power receiving coil to each other, so as to supply power to the electric heating component 523 and the fan 522.

[0045] In some embodiments, Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown, the clothes hanging mechanism 3 includes a mounting seat 31 and two mounting racks 32. The mounting racks 32 are rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 31. The mounting racks 32 are provided with clothes hanging rods 321. When the two mounting racks 32 are rotated and opened, the two clothes hanging rods 321 are butted together. Specifically, the mounting racks 32 adopt a plate structure with an L-shaped cross section. When not in use, the two mounting racks 32 are folded and arranged relative to each other to reduce the space occupied. When drying and ironing are required, the mounting racks 32 are unfolded so that the two clothes hanging rods 321 are butted together so that more clothes can be hung in the thickness direction of the cabinet 1. Among them, slide rails 311 are respectively provided on both sides of the mounting seat 31. Sliding sliders (not marked) are provided in the slide rails 311. The mounting racks 32 are rotatably mounted on the corresponding sliders. The position of the mounting racks 32 can be adjusted by moving the sliders.

[0046] Based on the above technical solution, optionally, in order to realize automatic ironing of clothes, the automatic ironing mechanism 4 includes an ironing head 41, a lifting module 42 and a steam generating module 43; the ironing head 41 includes a steam spray plate 411 and a support plate 412 arranged relatively, an ironing area is formed between the steam spray plate 411 and the support plate 412, a plurality of steam nozzles 4111 are provided on the inner surface of the steam spray plate 411, the steam generating module 43 is used to supply steam to the steam nozzles 4111, and the lifting module 42 is used to drive the steam spray plate 411 and the support plate 412 to move synchronously up and down in a cycle.

[0047] In actual use, the automatic ironing mechanism 4 can realize automatic ironing of the clothes in the cabinet 1. During the ironing process, the clothes will be located between the steam spray plate 411 and the support plate 412 to form an ironing area. The lifting module 42 drives the ironing head 41 to move downward and the steam nozzle 4111 sprays hot steam to the surface of the clothes. Under the action of hot steam, the clothes will be attached to the support plate 412, and the support plate 412 can support the clothes. The parallel movement of the steam spray plate 411 and the support plate 412 can ensure that the clothes will not swing with the air flow during the ironing process, thereby improving the ironing efficiency and enhancing the ironing effect. The specific performance entity of the steam generation module 43 can adopt the steam generator used in conventional ironing equipment, which is not limited or elaborated here. In addition, for the lifting module 42, the lifting module 42 can adopt the following structural form to drive the ironing head 41 to move up and down, for example: the lifting module 42 includes a second motor (not shown) and two meshing gears 420, the gears 420 are rotatably installed in the cabinet 1, the second motor drives one of the gears 420 to rotate, and the gear 420 is provided with a winding shaft 421, and the winding shaft 421 is also wound with a belt 422, the lower end of the belt 422 is connected to the corresponding ironing board, the second motor drives the gear 420 to rotate, so as to realize the synchronous rotation of the two gears 420, and correspondingly, the belt 422 will pull the corresponding steam spray plate 411 and the support plate 412 below to move synchronously; wherein, in actual use, two corresponding gears 420 are respectively arranged above the two ends of the ironing head 41, and one of the coaxially oppositely arranged gears 420 is connected by a connecting shaft, so that both ends of the ironing head 41 are pulled by the corresponding belt 422.

[0048] A hollow cavity (not shown) is formed inside the steam spray plate 411, the steam spray ports 4111 are connected to the hollow cavity, and the steam generating module 43 is connected to the hollow cavity through a pipe. The steam generated by the steam generating module 43 first enters the hollow cavity through the pipe, and then sprays out through each steam spray port 4111. The steam can be evenly dispersed in the hollow cavity to ensure that the steam spray ports 4111 distributed at different positions can obtain sufficient steam to improve the ironing effect.

[0049] In addition, for the support plate 412, in order to better play the role of drying clothes, after ironing clothes, the clothes are directly dried in a targeted manner, the support plate 412 includes: a plate body 4121 and a hood 4122, the plate body 4121 is provided with an array of ventilation holes 4120, the hood 4122 is arranged on the outer surface of the plate body 4121, an air inlet cavity is formed between the hood 4122 and the plate body 4121, and the hood 4122 is provided with an air inlet, the dry air output by the air drying mechanism 2 enters the air inlet cavity through the air inlet, and finally the dry air is output from the vent 4120 to directly blow dry the clothes, so as to improve the drying efficiency. In the actual operation and use process, after ironing, the clothes will be affected by the steam, resulting in relatively wet clothes; at this time, the steam generating module 43 is paused and the air drying mechanism 2 is started, and the dry air is blown to the clothes through the vent 4120, and the clothes will be attached to the steam spray plate 411 under the action of the dry air, so that the clothes can be dried quickly.

[0050] Furthermore, the specific entity of the air drying mechanism 2 can adopt the drying components used in conventional drying cabinets, such as: electric heating combined with a fan, or a heat pump. In order to reduce the noise during drying and reduce the volume, the air drying mechanism 2 includes a shell 21, a semiconductor refrigeration plate 22, a laminar heat exchanger 23, a drive mechanism 24 and a wind shield 25, and the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22, the laminar heat exchanger 23, the drive mechanism 24 and the wind shield 25 are all installed in the shell 21. The shell 21 is provided with an air intake port 211 and an air exhaust port 212; the laminar heat exchanger 23 includes a first heat exchange part 231 for exchanging the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22, and the laminar heat exchanger 23 includes a second heat exchange part 232 for exchanging the heat of the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22. The first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232 respectively include a plurality of layers of circular blades 230, wherein the plurality of layers of circular blades 230 are coaxially arranged, and an inlet port 211 is formed between the through holes of the plurality of layers of circular blades 230. A wind area 2301 is formed between two adjacent layers of circular blades, and an air outlet area 2302 is formed; a wind shield 25 is arranged between the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232, and the wind shield 25 separates the air inlet area 2301 of the first heat exchange part 231 from the air inlet area 2301 of the second heat exchange part 232; the air inlet area 2301 of the first heat exchange part 231 is arranged opposite to the air intake port 211, and the air outlet area 2302 of the second heat exchange part 232 is arranged opposite to the air outlet port 212.

[0051] The hot and cold ends of the semiconductor cooling plate 22 exchange heat through the laminar heat exchanger 23, and the two heat exchange parts in the laminar heat exchanger 23 are respectively composed of multiple layers of circular blades 230. When the driving mechanism 24 drives the laminar heat exchanger 23 to rotate, the circular blades 230 will rotate accordingly, and the air between two adjacent layers of circular blades 230 will flow to the outside of the circular blades 230 under the action of centrifugal force due to fluid viscosity, so that the air inlet area 2301 formed at the through hole of the circular blade 230 generates negative pressure, thereby realizing the flow of air.

[0052] The flow airflow formed by the rotation of the multi-layer circular blades 230 in the first heat exchange part 231 will realize the heat exchange treatment of the cold end of the semiconductor cooling plate 22. The flow airflow formed by the rotation of the multi-layer circular blades 230 in the second heat exchange part 232 will realize the heat exchange treatment of the hot end of the semiconductor cooling plate 22. During the drying process, after the semiconductor refrigeration chip 22 is energized, the driving mechanism 24 drives the laminar flow heat exchanger 23 to rotate, and the air between two adjacent annular blades 230 flows outward due to the viscosity of the fluid and the centrifugal force to generate negative pressure in the air inlet area formed by the annular blades 230. Under the action of the negative pressure, the air in the cabinet 1 enters the air inlet area 2301 of the first heat exchange part 231 through the air intake port 211 and is condensed and dried by the cold energy released by the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 22. The dry air then enters the air inlet area 2301 of the second heat exchange part 232 and is heated by the heat released by the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration chip 22 and then enters the cabinet 1 from the exhaust port 212. This reciprocating process is used to dry the clothes in the cabinet 1.

[0053] The annular blades 230 can function as a fan on the one hand, and can also function as a heat exchanger for the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 on the other hand, so that the overall volume of the semiconductor heat exchange component of this embodiment is relatively small; at the same time, the annular blades 230 rotate to realize laminar air circulation, which can effectively reduce operating noise and improve user experience. In order to make the overall structure more compact, the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 is arranged between the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232. The wind shield 25 can prevent the humid air sucked in by the first heat exchange part 231 from being directly sucked into the second heat exchange part 232 without being dried. In this way, it can be ensured that dry hot air is output from the exhaust port 212. For the specific air flow direction, refer to Figure 8 The dashed arrows indicate the direction of air flow.

[0054] In addition, the driving mechanism 24 may include a first motor 241 and a rotating disk 242, the first motor 241 is used to drive the rotating disk 242 to rotate, and the laminar heat exchanger 23 is installed on the rotating disk 242; and in order to enable the first heat exchange part 231 to better condense and dry the air, the laminar heat exchanger 23 is fixed to the rotating disk 242 through the second heat exchange part 232, and the first heat exchange part 231 can avoid the rotating disk 242 from blocking and has better ventilation efficiency, so as to improve the efficiency of condensation and drying.

[0055] Furthermore, in order to improve the heat exchange efficiency, so that the cold and hot ends of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 can quickly and efficiently exchange heat, the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 is connected to the first heat pipe 221, and the first heat pipe 221 is connected to the annular blade 230 of the first heat exchange part 231, and the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 is connected to the second heat pipe 222, and the second heat pipe 222 is connected to the annular blade 230 of the second heat exchange part 232. Specifically, the cold end and the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 are respectively connected to the annular blade 230 of the corresponding heat exchange part through the heat pipe, and the heat pipe can quickly transfer heat and use the annular blade 230 to quickly dissipate heat. During the rotation process, the annular blade 230 can not only drive the air flow, but also act as a heat dissipation fin to quickly and efficiently exchange heat with the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22.

[0056] In addition, for the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232, the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232 can be fixedly connected together by a connecting column or a connecting frame, etc. Preferably, the first heat pipe 221 and the second heat pipe 222 are heat-insulated and fixed together. Specifically, the first heat pipe 221 and the second heat pipe 222 are fixedly connected, so that the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232 are connected together through the first heat pipe 221 and the second heat pipe 222. In addition to heat transfer, the heat pipe is also used to connect the two heat exchange parts, which is more conducive to simplifying the structure and reducing the volume. Preferably, the cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 is provided with a cold end heat conduction block 223, and the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 is provided with a hot end heat conduction block 224. The heat insulation gasket is sandwiched between the cold end heat conduction block 223 and the hot end heat conduction block 224, the first heat pipe 221 is connected to the cold end heat conduction block 223, and the second heat pipe 222 is connected to the hot end heat conduction block 224. Specifically, the cold end and the hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration plate 22 transfer heat through corresponding heat-conducting blocks, and the heat-conducting blocks can be better connected with the heat pipe to improve the heat transfer efficiency.

[0057] Furthermore, the first heat exchange part 231 and the second heat exchange part 232 are arranged up and down, and a partition 210 arranged horizontally is provided in the shell 21, and the partition 210 divides the shell 21 into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. A mounting hole (not marked) is provided on the partition 210, and the laminar heat exchanger 23 runs through the mounting hole. The first heat exchange part 231 is located in the upper cavity, and the second heat exchange part 232 is located in the lower cavity; the upper cavity is provided with an air intake 211 connected to the cabinet 1, and the air outlet 212 is connected to the lower cavity, and the wind shield 25 is located above the partition 210. Specifically, the first heat exchange part 231 is in the upper cavity, and the air in the cabinet 1 is sucked into the upper cavity through the air intake 211 and enters the first heat exchange part 231, and after condensation and drying, enters the lower cavity from the mounting hole and is sucked into the air inlet area 2301 in the second heat exchange part 232.

[0058] By adding an automatic ironing mechanism, the lifting module can drive the iron to move up and down, and an ironing area is formed between the steam spray plate and the support plate of the iron. The iron automatically moves for ironing, and the hot steam sprayed from the steam spray plate will blow toward the clothes, so that the clothes are pressed against the support plate on the other side. The support plate on the other side supports the dried clothes and heats and irons them at the same time, so as to improve the ironing quality and efficiency; and the air drying mechanism can absorb the hot and humid air in the cabinet and form dry hot air output after drying to dry the clothes in the cabinet, so as to achieve automatic drying, realize the automatic drying device to automatically iron and dry the clothes, and improve the user experience.
