Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of clothes drying machines, and more particularly to a clothes drying machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the popularization of clothes drying machines, the functions have also become diversified. Users not only pursue functions, but also have higher and higher requirements for the running quality and appearance of clothes drying machines. Gradually, many different types of clothes drying machines have emerged.

[0003] Most existing clothes drying machines control the connection structure such as steel wire rope or scissors frame by motor to drive the corresponding clothes drying rod to rise or fall. Usually, a group of motors are used to control the storage or release of the steel wire ropes on both sides of the corresponding clothes drying rod, so as to make the clothes drying rod rise or fall. However, during the installation process, due to manual installation by workers or process problems, the length error of the steel wire ropes on both sides may occur, and the height of the clothes drying rod on both sides may be inconsistent due to the length difference of the steel wire ropes on both sides. When the motor stores the steel wire ropes on both sides, the side of the clothes drying rod with higher height will first reach the storage position (i.e. when the side of the clothes drying rod abuts against the inner side of the storage slot of the clothes drying machine), at which time the motor has completely wound the steel wire rope on the shorter side and temporarily stops the winding work, and cannot wind the steel wire rope on the longer side, causing the clothes drying rod to stop rising, while the side of the clothes drying rod with lower height has not been completely stored in the storage slot, resulting in that the clothes drying rod cannot be completely stored in the main machine. At this time, the clothes drying rod will be fixed in the storage slot in an inclined state, and compared with the straight storage slot, the inclined state of the clothes drying rod will be very obvious, thus affecting the appearance. Therefore, a kind of compensation for the length error of the steel wire rope is needed, so that the clothes drying rod can be stored straight even in an inclined state, without affecting the appearance and without causing collision problems.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application. ​​​​​​

[0043] Referring to Figures 1-11 The laundry drying machine comprises:

[0044] The main body 41 is internally provided with a steel wire rope device, which winds and stores a steel wire rope body 17, and the two ends of the main body 41 each extend outwardly with a steel wire rope body 17;

[0045] The drying rod 19 is located at one side of the main body 41, and one end of each of the two steel wire rope bodies 17 extends into the drying rod 19;

[0046] The bottom end of the main body 41 is provided with a storage cavity 43 for storing the drying rod 19;

[0047] It can be understood that the above-mentioned steel wire rope device is used to wind or release the steel wire rope body 17, so as to drive the up-and-down movement of the drying rod 19 through the up-and-down movement of the steel wire rope body 17. When the drying rod 19 moves downward, a clothes hanger can be hung for drying. When the drying rod 19 moves upward, it is stored in the storage cavity 43 for standby, etc.

[0048] In the embodiment, one steel wire rope device winds one steel wire rope body 17, and the two ends of the steel wire rope body 17 extend outwardly to the main body 41. When the steel wire rope device is started, the two ends of the steel wire rope body 17 can be simultaneously wound and released.

[0049] In a more preferred embodiment, a separate steel wire rope device can also be provided to control the winding and releasing of one steel wire rope body 17. Therefore, two sets of steel wire rope devices are provided to control two steel wire rope bodies 17, so that the two different steel wire rope bodies 17 extend outwardly to the main body 41.

[0050] The compensation device 500 is provided with at least two same compensation devices corresponding to the number of steel wire rope bodies 17. The compensation device 500 is arranged in the drying rod 19, and the compensation device 500 comprises a limiting portion and a compensation portion. One side end of the steel wire rope body 17 is slidingly arranged with the limiting portion, and the limiting portion limits the end of the steel wire rope body 17 to one side of the limiting portion. The compensation portion comprises an elastic element and a fixed element. The fixed element is arranged at the top end of the drying rod 19. One end of the elastic element is abuttingly arranged with the limiting portion, and the other end of the elastic element is abuttingly arranged with the fixed element. The elastic element is sleeved on the outer end of the steel wire rope body 17. The elastic extension direction of the elastic element is the same as the moving direction of the steel wire rope body 17. When the storage cavity 43 is located at the upper limit position, the elastic element is compressed to provide an additional displacement distance for the steel wire rope body 17.

[0051] It can be understood that the limiting portion is arranged at the bottom end of the steel wire rope body 17 to limit the steel wire rope body 17 from moving to the upper side of the limiting portion, but since the steel wire rope body 17 is in sliding connection with the limiting portion, the steel wire rope body 17 can move downward to the lower side of the limiting portion. The compensation portion mainly compensates for the displacement distance of the steel wire rope body 17 through the elastic element, the bottom end of the elastic element abuts against the limiting portion, so that when the steel wire rope body 17 moves upward, the limiting portion compresses the elastic element, so that the elastic element is compressed to provide additional displacement distance for the steel wire rope body 17, thereby achieving the purpose of compensating for the inconsistent lengths of the steel wires on both sides.

[0052] In a more preferred embodiment, the elastic element can be a spring, a rubber block, etc., as long as it has elastic force and stable extension direction.

[0053] The limiting portion includes a lower limiting block 12 and an upper limiting block 13, which are clamped and arranged; one side of the upper limiting block 13 is provided with a sliding groove 28, and the steel wire rope body 17 is horizontally arranged in sliding connection with the wall surface of the sliding groove 28; the lower limiting block 12 is provided with a rope hole 23 penetrating upward and downward, and the steel wire rope body 17 passes through the rope hole 23 and is arranged in vertical sliding connection with the wall surface of the rope hole 23. The limiting portion further includes a casting head 14, which is fixedly arranged at the bottom side of the steel wire rope body 17, and the diameter of the casting head 14 is greater than that of the rope hole 23.

[0054] The upper limiting block 13 is provided with a clamping groove 26 penetrating therethrough, and the lower limiting block 12 is fixedly provided with a clasp 24, which is in mutual connection with the clamping groove 26. The upper limiting block 13 is provided with a connecting hole 25 penetrating therethrough, and the lower limiting block 12 is fixedly provided with a connecting column 27, which is in mutual connection with the connecting hole 25.

[0055] It can be understood that when the lower limiting block 12 and the upper limiting block 13 cooperate, the clasp 24 extends into the clamping groove 26, the clasp 24 is provided with an inverted hook to be clamped on the upper limiting block 13, thereby forming clasp connection, and at the same time, the connecting column 27 can extend into the connecting hole 25, and the connecting hole 25 and the connecting column 27 are in guiding connection. The casting head 14 is fixedly arranged at the bottom end of the spring 15, and the casting head 14 is located at the lower side of the lower limiting block 12, and the diameter of the casting head 14 is greater than that of the rope hole 23, so that the casting head 14 cannot move to the upper side of the lower limiting block 12, thereby limiting the steel wire rope body 17.

[0056] The sliding groove 28 is in a long slot structure, which can allow the steel wire rope body 17 to have certain displacement and shaking in the horizontal direction.

[0057] The fixed element comprises a connecting block 16; a rod slot 44 is formed at the top end of the airing rod 19, and the connecting block 16 is detachably arranged in the rod slot 44; the elastic element comprises a spring 15, the spring 15 is sleeved on the outer end of the steel wire rope body 17, the top end of the spring 15 abuts against the connecting block 16, and the bottom end of the spring 15 abuts against the upper limiting block 13; a through hole 22 is formed at the top end of the connecting block 16, and the steel wire rope body 17 is arranged through the through hole 22. The airing seat 31 is detachably arranged in the rod slot 44, and the connecting block 16 is arranged at the two ends of the airing seat 31.

[0058] It can be understood that the connecting block 16 is slid into the rod slot 44 for installation, the two connecting blocks 16 abut against the two ends of the airing seat 31 respectively, and the rod slot 44 is provided with a positioning hole 21 corresponding to the position of the connecting block 16, and the steel wire rope body 17 is arranged through the positioning hole 21 and the through hole 22 to complete positioning. The fixed arrangement of the connecting block 16 in the rod slot 44 provides an upper limiting function for the spring 15.

[0059] The two ends of the airing rod 19 are detachably provided with airing rod end covers 11, one side of the airing rod end cover 11 extends into the rod slot 44 and abuts against the connecting block 16 on the side.

[0060] It can be understood that the airing rod end cover 11 is an end cover body for closing the two ends of the airing rod 19, and the airing rod end cover 11 on the two sides has a block body extending into the rod slot 44, which can abut against the connecting block 16 on the two sides to limit the connecting block 16 and also can close the rod slot 44.

[0061] The steel wire rope device comprises a winding device 42, the winding device 42 is fixedly arranged in the main body 41, and the winding device 42 winds and stores the steel wire rope body 17.

[0062] It can be understood that the winding device 42 comprises a motor, a guide roller and an auxiliary roller and the like winding mechanism.

[0063] The bottom end of the airing rod 19 is provided with a through installation slot 20, the installation slot 20 is provided with two, the two installation slots 20 are respectively located below the limiting parts on the two sides, and the bottom cover 18 is detachably arranged in the two installation slots 20.

[0064] It can be understood that the bottom cover 18 is used for closing the bottom end of the airing rod 19, the connection between the bottom cover 18 and the installation slot 20 is a clamping connection, the bottom cover 18 is provided with a connecting buckle 30, when the lower limiting block 12 and the upper limiting block 13 are connected, the connecting buckle 30 is clamped into the inner wall of the installation slot 20 to complete the clamping connection, the arrangement of the bottom cover 18 can prevent the lower limiting block 12, the upper limiting block 13 and the casting head 14 and the like from falling out of the airing rod 19, so as to affect the appearance and the like use problem, and through the arrangement of the bottom cover 18, the installation or repair of the lower limiting block 12, the upper limiting block 13 and the casting head 14 and the like is more convenient.

[0065] Working principle: when the winding device 42 drives the drying rod 19 to move, the motor is started to wind or release the steel wire body 17, so as to drive the steel wire body 17 to move upwards or downwards, when the steel wire body 17 is driven to move upwards, the drying rod 19 moves upwards synchronously, and when the drying rod 19 moves to the upper limit position, the drying rod 19 moves into the storage cavity 43 and abuts against the upper wall surface of the storage cavity 43. At this time, due to the length error of the two ends of the steel wire body 17 caused by processing or assembly, when the drying rod 19 moves upwards, one end of the drying rod 19 will abut against the upper wall surface of the storage cavity 43 first. Since the drying rod 19 is in the storage state at this time, the imbalance of the drying rod 19 is very obvious and easy to affect the aesthetic degree. When one end of the drying rod 19 abuts against the upper wall surface of the storage cavity 43, the motor continuously winds the steel wire body 17 to drive the other end of the drying rod 19 to move upwards, and at this time, the abutting end of the steel wire body 17 also continuously moves upwards to pull the casting head 14 to move upwards to push the lower limit block 12 and the upper limit block 13 to compress the spring 15. The elastic deformation of the spring 15 provides the displacement amount of the steel wire body 17 that can continue to move upwards, and when the other end of the drying rod 19 also abuts against the upper wall surface of the storage cavity 43, the drying rod 19 is in a horizontal state, so that the motor is turned off to complete the storage of the drying rod 19.

[0066] It can be understood that the assembly error of the two ends of the steel wire body 17 is generally not more than fifteen millimeters, so even if there is an error in the extension length of the two ends of the steel wire body 17, the unevenness of the drying rod 19 is not easy to be observed by the naked eye when the drying rod 19 is used at the lower side, and the unevenness of the drying rod 19 is more obvious when the drying rod 19 is located in the storage cavity 43 because it can be referred to by the storage cavity 43.

[0067] Meanwhile, the compression stroke of the spring 15 can be selected to be set between ten millimeters and thirty millimeters, which can well compensate for the length error of the two ends of the steel wire body 17 and will not affect the flatness of the drying rod 19.

[0068] Meanwhile, the stop of the motor can be controlled by the contact switch arranged on the upper wall surface of the storage cavity 43, and the motor can also be automatically started and stopped by setting the stroke of the motor.

[0069] It will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that the application is not limited to the details of the above-described exemplary embodiments but can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the scope of the application. The application is therefore not limited by the described examples but can vary within the scope of the claims and their equivalents. No reference signs in the claims should be considered as limiting the scope of the claims. Furthermore, it is obvious that the wording "comprising" does not exclude other parts and does not exclude other steps. Singularity is not excluded with respect to plurality and vice versa. Multiple units or devices recited in a device claim can also be implemented by one unit or device by means of software or hardware. The terms first, second and the like do not denote any ordering, but rather serve as names.
