Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of clothes drying machines, and specifically relates to a windproof clothes drying rod that can quickly collect clothes. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology and economic level, clothes drying racks have become a necessity for many families as a household item used every day. The clothes drying rack industry has been formed for more than ten years. Since its inception, the technology of clothes drying racks has been continuously improved and transformed.

[0003] The clothes drying rod is a key functional component of the electric clothes drying machine, such as Figure 1 As shown, the existing clothes drying rod is constructed by machining a row of equally spaced hanging holes on an aluminum profile. A hanger with clothes is hung in each hanging hole. This has the main advantage that when wind blows, the clothes will not be blown away and pushed against each other on the rod. The clothes are always kept at a certain distance from each other, which accelerates air convection and drying. However, the disadvantage is that the hangers need to be hooked into the holes on the rod one by one when hanging them. When removing the hangers, the hooks need to be removed from the holes on the rod one by one, which is labor-intensive.

[0004] Application Contents

[0005] The purpose of this application is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and to propose a windproof clothesline that can quickly collect clothes.

[0006] The technical solution of the present application: A clothes drying rod, comprising a clothes drying rod, a wrench, a spacer rod, and a plug assembly;

[0007] The upper end of the drying rod is provided with a plurality of spaced-apart spaces; the spacer rod can be accommodated inside the drying rod; the spacer rod is provided with a plurality of spacer crowns arranged at intervals; the spacer rod is configured to be able to move upward in the up and down directions inside the drying rod under the drive of the wrench, and the spacer crown can extend from the spacer to exceed the upper end of the drying rod; wherein, an air-avoidance groove is formed between adjacent spacer crowns.

[0008] Furthermore, the wrench is rotatably fixed on the clothes-drying rod through a fixing hole; a limiting column is provided on the wrench; a limiting groove is provided on the clothes-drying rod; when the user rotates the wrench, the limiting column can move within the space of the limiting groove.

[0009] Furthermore, a support surface is provided on the top of the wrench; when the wrench is rotated from a horizontal position to a position perpendicular to the clothes-drying rod, the support surface pushes the spacer rod to move toward the upper end portion of the clothes-drying rod, so that the spacer crown extends from the space; when the wrench is rotated from a position perpendicular to the clothes-drying rod to a horizontal position, the spacer crown retracts into the clothes-drying rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting groove is an arc-shaped structure.

[0011] Furthermore, a space-avoiding groove is provided between each of the spacer crowns; when the spacer crowns extend out of the clothes-drying rod, the space-avoiding groove can be used to hook a clothes hanger.

[0012] Furthermore, the plug assembly is installed on the left and right sides of the clothes drying rod.

[0013] Furthermore, a return spring is installed on the plug assembly; one end of the return spring is fixed to the plug assembly by a screw; and the other end of the return spring abuts against the bottom of the inner cavity of the spacer rod.

[0014] Furthermore, when the spacer rod extends out of the drying rod, the return spring piece is compressed; when the spacer rod falls into the drying rod, the return spring piece extends.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: the clothesline of the present application is provided with a spacer rod and a drying rod, the spacer rod being extendable from the drying rod. When the spacer rod is extended from the drying rod, a plurality of air-avoidance grooves are provided on the spacer rod for hooking clothes hangers. In this case, there is no need to align the hanger hooks with the hanging holes to hang the hangers; instead, the hanger hooks can be hooked into the grooves, making it more convenient to dry clothes and improving the efficiency of drying clothes. When the spacer rod falls into the drying rod, the drying rod becomes flat, and the clothes hangers are freed from the air-avoidance grooves. The clothes hangers can move freely at the upper end of the drying rod body, allowing users to remove the clothes that have been hung out to dry in a centralized manner. This avoids the trouble of removing hangers one by one when collecting clothes, thereby improving the efficiency of collecting clothes. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] The present application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Figure 3 This is a schematic structural diagram of a preferred drying rod according to an embodiment of the present application;

[0031] Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of a preferred spacer rod according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0032] like Figure 2-4 As shown, clothes drying rod 10 includes a clothes drying rod 1, spacer rods 2, eccentric wrench 3, and plug assembly 4. The clothes drying rod 1 is hollow and includes a clothes drying rod body 11 and spacers 12. The spacers 12 are disposed at the upper end of the clothes drying rod body 11, with each spacer 12 spaced apart. The clothes drying rod body 11 can accommodate the spacer rods 2.

[0033] The spacer rod 2 includes a spacer rod body 21, a spacer crown 22, and an air avoidance groove 23. The spacer crown 22 is arranged at the upper end of the spacer rod body 21, and the gap between each spacer crown 22 is the air avoidance groove 23. Each space 12 can accommodate one spacer crown 22. The eccentric wrench 3 is arranged on the clothes-drying rod body 11. When the user moves the eccentric wrench 3, the eccentric wrench 3 can make the spacer crown 22 extend from the space 12 in the clothes-drying rod body 11, and can also make the spacer crown 22 fall from the space 12 into the clothes-drying rod body 11. Each clothes hanger 20 can be hung in an air avoidance groove 23. Two plug assemblies 4 are arranged on the left and right sides of the clothes-drying rod body 11.

[0035] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of extending the spacer rod by an eccentric wrench, which is preferred in the embodiment of the present application;

[0036] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of returning the spacer rod to its original position by an eccentric wrench is preferred in the embodiment of the present application;

[0037] Figure 8 This is a schematic structural diagram of a preferred plug assembly according to an embodiment of the present application;

[0038] Figure 9 This is a cross-sectional view of the working state of the preferred plug assembly of the embodiment of the present application.

[0039] like Figure 5-9 As shown, the eccentric wrench 3 includes a wrench body 31, which is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and the inner wall and outer wall of the wrench body 31 are both arc-shaped structures, and the curvature of the inner wall is greater than that of the outer wall. This design makes it easy for users to rotate the eccentric wrench 3 and provides a better grip.

[0040] The upper end of the wrench body 31 is provided with a fixing hole 32 and a limiting post 33. The fixing hole 32 allows the wrench body 31 to be fixed to the drying rod body 11 via rivets. The limiting post 33 is received in a limiting groove 13 on the drying rod body 11. When the eccentric wrench 3 rotates, the eccentric wrench body 31 rotates about the fixing hole 32, and the limiting post 33 slides within the limiting groove 13. A support surface 34 is provided at the top of the wrench body 31. The support surface 34 is a planar structure.

[0041] A return spring 41 is provided on the plug assembly 4, one end of the return spring 41 is fixed to the inside of the plug assembly 4 by a screw, and the other end of the return spring 41 extends out. When the plug assembly 4 is installed on the drying rod body 11, the other end of the return spring 41 abuts against the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the spacer rod body 21.

[0042] When the user wants to hang clothes, the spacer rod 2 needs to be extended. The user should rotate the eccentric wrench 3 from a horizontal position to a position perpendicular to the rod body 11. During this process, the wrench body 31 pushes the spacer rod 2 to move upward, and the position of the limit column 33 in the limit groove 13 also moves from bottom to top. The return spring 41 gradually deforms during the rising process of the spacer rod body 21.

[0043] When the eccentric wrench 3 is rotated to a position perpendicular to the clothes-drying rod body 11, the position of the limiting post 33 in the limiting slot 13 is also at its highest point. At this time, the plane of the supporting surface 34 also contacts the spacer rod 2, and the deformation and elastic force of the return spring 41 are maximized. At this time, the spacer crown 22 of the spacer rod 2 is also fully extended from the spacer 12, and is in a state suitable for drying clothes.

[0044] When the clothes are ready for drying, the user can hook the hook of the hanger 20 into the airtight groove 23 formed between each of the spacers 22, so that the airtight groove 23 fixes the hanger 2. When the external environment is windy, the hanger 20 is confined in the airtight groove 23 and does not slide left and right, causing the clothes to stick together, thus playing a windproof role. The above method of drying clothes does not require the hook of the hanger 2 to be aligned with the hanging hole to hang the hanger. The user only needs to hang the hook of the hanger 2 in the groove, which makes drying clothes more convenient and improves the efficiency of drying clothes.

[0045] When the user wants to collect clothes and needs to retract the spacer rod 2 into the rod body 11, the user rotates the eccentric wrench 3 from a vertical position to a position parallel to the rod body 11. During this process, the position of the limit post 33 in the limit slot 13 also moves from top to bottom, and the plane of the support surface 34 gradually separates from the spacer rod 2. Under the action of the spacer rod 2's own weight and the elastic force of the return spring 41, the spacer crown 22 of the spacer rod 2 retracts into the rod body 11, and the upper end of the rod body 11 forms a flat surface.

[0046] At this time, the clothes hanger 20 is free from the restriction of the escape groove 23 and can move freely on the upper end of the drying rod body 11, so that the user can take out the clothes to be dried in one go, thereby avoiding the trouble of taking out the clothes hangers one by one when collecting clothes and improving the efficiency of collecting clothes.

[0047] Although the preferred embodiments of the present application have been described, those skilled in the art may make additional changes and modifications to these embodiments once they have learned the basic creative concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present application.

[0048] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications to this application without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of this application fall within the scope of the claims of this application and their equivalents, this application is intended to include these modifications and variations.
