Detailed Implementation

[0055] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0056] The following description refers to elements or components that are “connected” or “coupled” together. As used herein, “connected” may refer to one element / component being mechanically joined to (or directly connected to) another element / component, and is not necessarily direct. Similarly, “coupled” may refer to one element / component being directly or indirectly joined to (or directly or indirectly connected to) another element / component, and is not necessarily mechanical. However, it should be understood that although two elements are described as “connected” below in one embodiment, similar elements may be “coupled” in alternative embodiments, and vice versa. Therefore, although the schematic diagrams shown herein depict exemplary arrangements of elements, additional intermediate elements, devices, components, or members may still be present in an actual embodiment.

[0057] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1The structure of a drying device is shown. One embodiment of this application provides a drying device. In this embodiment, the drying device includes a plurality of bodies 100, which are divided into a main body 110 and at least one auxiliary body 120, and the main body 110 and the auxiliary body 120 are connected by a connecting line 130.

[0058] As an example, the drying equipment may also include multiple main units 110, each main unit 110 being connected to at least one auxiliary unit, and the auxiliary units 120 connected to each main unit 110 are different. Each main unit 110 and its connected auxiliary unit 120 constitute a group of units 100, that is, the drying equipment may include multiple groups of units 100. Since the structures of each group of units 100 are basically the same, the following description uses one group of units 100 as an example.

[0059] Reference Figures 2-4 , Figure 2 The structure of an organism 100 is shown. Figure 3 The structure of a host 110 is shown. Figure 4 The structure of a secondary unit 120 is shown. In this embodiment, the main body 100 includes a main body 200, a drying rod 300, and a lifting control assembly 400. The lifting control assembly 400 is disposed in the main body 200 and connected to the drying rod 300, and is configured to control the lifting of the drying rod 300. The main body 200 of the main unit 110 is provided with a main control unit 500, which is connected to the lifting control assembly 400 in each unit 100 and is configured to control the operation of each lifting control assembly 400.

[0060] In some embodiments, the drying rod 300 can be a straight rod, a curved rod, or a combination of straight and curved rod portions. Furthermore, the drying rod 300 may have multiple hanging holes. These hanging holes facilitate the hanging of clothes hangers, etc.

[0061] It is understandable that both the main body 200 of the host 110 and the main body 200 of each auxiliary unit 120 are equipped with a lifting control component 400 to control the drying racks 300 within their respective units 100. However, the control signals of the lifting control components 400 within each main body 200 are all output from the main control unit 500 within the main body 200 of the host 110.

[0062] The main unit 200 can be fixed to a wall or ceiling. The main unit 200 of the main unit 110 and the main units 200 of each auxiliary unit 120 can be installed independently. The main units 200 are connected by connecting cables 130. Therefore, the installation distance between the main units 200 depends on the length of the connecting cables 130. If the length of the connecting cables 130 is sufficient, the installation position of each main unit 200 can be selected according to requirements, offering greater flexibility.

[0063] The main control unit 500 can interact with terminals (such as remote controls or mobile phones) to receive control information. Based on the control information, the main control unit 500 determines the controlled object and action information, then generates corresponding control commands and sends them to the corresponding controlled object, causing the controlled object to perform the action corresponding to the action information according to the control command. Thus, the main unit 110 and the secondary unit 120 can be controlled independently, achieving multi-lever multi-control, which is convenient to use. The communication between the main control unit 500 and the terminal can be wireless communication, etc., and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0064] As an example, the drying equipment may include a main unit A, a secondary unit B, and a secondary unit C. If a user needs to control the secondary unit B to rise, they send a control message containing "secondary unit B rise" to the main control unit 500 within the main unit A via a terminal. After parsing the control message, the main control unit 500 determines that the controlled object is secondary unit B and the action signal is rising. Subsequently, the main control unit 500 generates a control command and sends it to the lifting control component 400 within secondary unit B, causing the lifting control component 400 to execute the rising action.

[0065] The drying equipment according to this application includes multiple units 100, each unit 100 can independently control its own drying rod 300, realizing multi-rod multi-control, which is convenient to use. Moreover, each unit 100 can be installed independently, which is highly flexible and easy to install.

[0066] Continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the main body 200 includes a housing 210 and a telescopic component 220, the telescopic component 220 being disposed at at least one end of the housing 210 along its length direction, and the telescopic component 220 being configured to extend and retract along the length direction of the housing 210.

[0067] It is understandable that the extension of the telescopic component 220 can delay the length of the housing 210, meeting the installation and use requirements of various scenarios. For example, telescopic components 220 can be provided at both ends of the length direction of the housing 210 to increase the range of length variation of the housing 210. The extension length of the telescopic component 220 can be set according to requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on it.

[0068] In some embodiments, both the housing 210 of the main unit 110 and the housing 210 of the secondary unit 120 may be provided with telescopic components 220. In use, the user can drag the telescopic components 220 to extend them.

[0069] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 5A mating structure between a telescopic component 220 and a housing 210 is shown. In some embodiments, a slide 211 is provided on the outer side of the end of the housing 210, and the telescopic component 220 includes an extension housing 221. A sliding post 222 is provided on the inner side of the extension housing 221, and the sliding post 222 mates with the slide 211.

[0070] Figure 5 The shown mating structure represents the structure at one end of the housing 210 along its length; the other end of the housing 210 along its length may also have a similar structure. Figure 5 The mating structure is shown. The slide rails 211 extend along the length of the housing 210, and there can be one or more slide rails. Providing multiple slide rails 211 allows for smoother sliding of the extended housing 221.

[0071] The cross-sectional profile of the extended housing 221 can be the same as that of the housing 210, and the extended housing 221 is fitted onto the housing 210. The sliding post 222 is embedded in the slide rail 211 to achieve a fit. The sliding post 222 and the slide rail 211 can have the same specific profile; for example, the cross-section of the slide rail 211 can be an inwardly curved arc, and the cross-section of the sliding post 222 can also be a curved arc.

[0072] As an example, the outer ends of the housing 210 are provided with three slide rails 211 on both sides along the width direction, and the slide rails 211 on the same side are arranged along the height direction of the housing 210. The extended housing 221 is provided with three sliding posts 222 on opposite sides along the width direction, and the sliding posts 222 on the same side are arranged along the height direction of the extended housing 221. Specifically, in the height direction of the housing 210, the cross-sectional dimension of the middle slide rail 211 along the extension direction is larger than that of the two side slide rails 211 along the extension direction; in the height direction of the extended housing 221, the cross-sectional dimension of the middle sliding post 222 along the extension direction is larger than that of the two side sliding posts 222 along the extension direction.

[0073] In some embodiments, the housing 210 includes a housing 212 and a cover plate 213. The housing 212 has a first cavity and a first opening that exposes the first cavity, and the cover plate 213 covers the first opening. The lifting control assembly 400 and / or the main control unit 500 are disposed in the first cavity.

[0074] The cross-section of the housing 212 along its length can be U-shaped, and the U-shaped groove forms the first cavity. The housing 210 of the main unit 110 is equipped with a lifting control component 400 and a main control unit 500, and the housing 210 of the auxiliary unit 120 is equipped with a lifting control component 400.

[0075] The cover plate 213 is used to close the first cavity to isolate the lifting control assembly 400 and / or the main control unit 500 from the external space and protect the lifting control assembly 400 and / or the main control unit 500.

[0076] In some embodiments, the housing 212 may have side plates 214 at both ends along its length, the side plates 214 being arranged along the width of the housing 212 to close both ends along its length. The side plates 214 may have mounting portions for fixing the housing 212 to a wall or ceiling, etc. These mounting portions may be hole structures, such as threaded holes.

[0077] In some embodiments, the housing 212 further includes a second cavity and a second opening that exposes the second cavity. The second opening and the first opening are located on opposite sides. The main body 200 also includes a lighting strip 230 and a lighting cover 240. The lighting strip 230 is disposed in the second cavity, and the lighting cover 240 covers the second opening.

[0078] When the main body 200 is installed, the second opening is usually arranged downwards, and the first opening is arranged upwards. The lighting strip 230 illuminates downwards, providing light to the space where the drying rod 300 is located, making it convenient for users.

[0079] The lighting cover 240 is made of a light-transmitting material, such as glass. The lighting cover 240 is used to seal the second cavity, isolate the lighting strip 230 from the external space, and protect the lighting strip 230.

[0080] In some embodiments, the main body 200 of the host 110 is further provided with a power supply unit (not shown in the figure), and the connecting line 130 between each unit 100 is also used to transmit electrical energy. The host 110 may also include a power cord, which is electrically connected to the power supply unit to provide electrical energy to the power supply unit so that the power supply unit can supply power to each component.

[0081] In this embodiment, the power supply is located only in the main unit 110, and the auxiliary unit 120 does not have a power supply unit. The connecting cable 130 includes a conductive wire harness that connects the power supply in the main unit 110 to the lifting control component 400 and the lighting strip 230 in the auxiliary unit.

[0082] In other embodiments, both the main body 200 of the host 110 and the main body 200 of the auxiliary unit 120 are equipped with power supplies. The power supplies in each main body 200 are used to power the lifting control assembly 400 and the lighting strip 230 of the unit.

[0083] Continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the drying rod 300 includes a main rod 310 and a telescopic rod 320, the telescopic rod 320 being disposed at at least one end of the main rod 310 along its length direction, and the telescopic rod 320 being configured to extend and retract along the length direction of the main rod 310.

[0084] It is understandable that the telescopic rod 320 can delay the length of the main rod 310, meeting the installation and use requirements of various scenarios. For example, telescopic rods 320 can be installed at both ends of the drying rod 300 along its length, increasing the range of length variation of the drying rod 300. The extension length of the telescopic rod 320 can be set according to requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0085] In some embodiments, both the drying rod 300 of the main unit 110 and the drying rod 300 of the auxiliary unit 120 may be equipped with a telescopic rod 320. In use, the user can drag the telescopic rod 320 to extend it.

[0086] As an example, the main rod 310 may have grooves extending along its length at both ends, and the telescopic rod 320 is disposed within these grooves. A plug 330 is provided at the end of the telescopic rod 320 furthest from the main rod 310. The cross-section of the plug 330 along the length of the main rod 310 is larger than the cross-section of the groove along the length of the main rod 310. Therefore, when the telescopic rod 320 is retracted into the groove, the plug 330 will not enter the groove, facilitating the subsequent removal of the telescopic rod 320.

[0087] Continue to refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the lifting control assembly 400 includes a motor 410, a pulley assembly 420, and a rope 430. The motor 410 is disposed on the main body 200, the pulley assembly 420 is disposed on the main body 200, and the rope 430 is disposed on the pulley assembly 420 and connected to the motor 410 and the drying rod 300, respectively.

[0088] Referring to the foregoing embodiment, the motor 410 and pulley assembly 420 can be housed within the first cavity of the housing 210 to isolate them from the outside. The pulley assembly 420 has rollers on which the rope 430 is disposed for sliding and changing direction. The motor 410 also includes a rope storage section, with one end of the rope 430 connected to this section. The motor 410 can rotate bidirectionally. For example, when rotating in a first direction, the rope 430 extends from the rope storage section; when rotating in a second direction, the rope 430 retracts into the rope storage section, thereby raising and lowering the drying rack 300 through the extension and retraction of the rope 430. The first direction can be clockwise, and the second direction can be counterclockwise; conversely, the opposite is also possible.

[0089] As an example, there can be two pulley assemblies 420 and ropes 430, respectively located at both ends of the housing 210 along its length. One end of the rope 430 is connected to the end of the drying rod 300 along its length, and the other end is connected to the motor 410, thereby simultaneously raising or lowering both ends of the drying rod 300 along its length, realizing the raising and lowering of the drying rod 300. Of course, the specific number of pulley assemblies 420 and ropes 430 can be set according to needs, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0090] In some embodiments, the lifting control assembly 400 may further include auxiliary components such as limit switches and obstacle detection switches. The limit switches and obstacle detection switches are used to limit the longest extended position and the shortest retracted position of the rope 430, thereby allowing the drying rod 300 to move within a suitable spatial range and avoiding collisions and other problems.

[0091] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 A partial structure of a drying rod 300 is shown. In some embodiments, the drying rod 300 includes a main rod 310, a hanging block 340, and a pin. The end of the main rod 310 is provided with a first rope end hole 311 and a first fixing hole 312. The hanging block 340 is slidably disposed on the main rod 310, and the hanging block 340 is provided with a second rope end hole 341 and a second fixing hole 342. In the installed state, the first rope end hole 311 is aligned with the second rope end hole 341, and the first fixing hole 312 and the second fixing hole 342 are aligned and fixed by the pin.

[0092] Figure 6 The structure shown represents the structure of one end of the drying rod 300 along its length. The other end of the drying rod 300 along its length may also have the same structure. Figure 6 The structure shown is as follows. The lifting block 340 is used to connect the rope 430 of the lifting control assembly 400, and the lifting block 340 is fixed to the main rod 310 by a pin.

[0093] In some embodiments, the pin may include a retaining screw 350 and a nut head 360. Of course, other components may also be used, as long as they can secure the two holes.

[0094] As an example, the installation of the drying rod 300 can be carried out as follows: First, slide the hanging block 340 on the main rod 310 until the first rope end hole 311 of the main rod 310 and the second rope end hole 341 of the hanging block 340 are aligned; then, pass the rope 430 of the lifting control assembly 400 through the second rope end hole 341 and the first rope end hole 311 in sequence and bind it to prevent the rope 430 from coming off the second rope end hole 341 and the first rope end hole 311; then adjust the position of the hanging block 340 until the first fixing hole 312 of the main rod 310 and the second fixing hole 342 of the hanging block 340 are aligned; finally, pass the fixing screw 350 through the first fixing hole 312 and the second fixing hole 342 and fix it with the nut head 360 to complete the installation of the drying rod 300.

[0095] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 7 A control framework for a drying device is shown. In some embodiments, the main control unit includes a main controller 510, a local driver 520, and at least one secondary driver 530; the local driver 520 is connected to the main controller 510 and the lifting control component 400 in the local unit, respectively, and is configured to drive the lifting control component 400 in the local unit to operate under the control of the main controller 510; the secondary driver 530 is connected to the main controller 510 and the lifting control component 400 in the corresponding secondary unit 120, respectively, and is configured to drive the lifting control component 400 in the secondary unit 120 to operate under the control of the main controller 510.

[0096] In this embodiment, the host 110 has at least one number of first interfaces 111 equal to the number of slave interfaces 120, and each slave interface 120 has at least one second interface 121. Each first interface 111 in the host 110 is connected to each slave driver 530 in a one-to-one correspondence, and each first interface 111 is connected to each second interface 121 of each slave interface 120 in a one-to-one correspondence via a connecting cable 130.

[0097] The control commands within each slave unit 120 are provided by the master unit 110. The master controller 510 receives control information and generates a control command for the corresponding driver, then sends the control command to the corresponding driver. The driver generates a drive signal according to the control command and sends it to the corresponding lifting control component 400 through the corresponding interface. For example, if the driver is a slave unit driver 530, the slave unit driver 530 generates a drive signal according to the control command and sends the drive signal directly to the lifting control component 400 within the unit; if the driver is a local driver 520, the local driver 520 generates a drive signal according to the control command and sends the drive signal directly to the lifting control component 400 within the unit. The structure and principle of the lifting control component 400 can be referred to in the foregoing embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0098] In this embodiment, the host 110 may also be provided with a power module 600, which is used to supply power to the main controller 510, the local driver 520, the slave driver 530, and the first interface 111. Each slave unit 120 may not have a power module; the first interface 111 and the second interface 121 can be used for inputting and receiving electrical energy, meaning that the electrical energy required by each slave unit 120 is provided by the host 110.

[0099] The power module 600 may include a power conversion circuit that is connected to an external power source via a power line 140, thereby converting the external power source into a suitable power supply to power various components.

[0100] The drying equipment provided in this embodiment has its control unit and / or power supply unit located in the main unit 110, which can save the number of modules in the auxiliary unit 120, save hardware resources, and reduce costs.

[0101] Reference Figure 8 , Figure 8 Another control framework for a drying device is shown. In some embodiments, the main body 200 of the auxiliary unit 120 is provided with a control unit 700, which is connected to the lifting control assembly 400 within the main unit, and the main control unit 500 and each control unit 700 are cascaded.

[0102] In this embodiment, the main unit 110 and each sub-unit 120 are serially connected. The main unit 110 has at least one first interface 111, which is connected to the main control unit 500. Each sub-unit has at least two second interfaces 121, and the second interfaces 121 within each sub-unit are connected to the control unit 700 of the main unit. The first interface 111 is connected to the second interface 121 of one sub-unit 120 via a connecting cable 130, and the second interfaces 121 of each sub-unit are also connected directly via connecting cables 130.

[0103] The drying equipment provided in this embodiment can theoretically be connected infinitely, and the host 110 does not need to reserve a limited number of first interfaces 111, thus having stronger expandability.

[0104] In some embodiments, the main control unit 500 and the control unit 700 are further configured to execute the control information when the received control information belongs to local information; or to forward the control information to the next level control unit when the received control information does not belong to local information.

[0105] In this embodiment, the main control unit 500 interacts with the terminal to receive control information. The main control unit 500 first determines whether the control information needs to be executed locally; if so, it executes the control information; otherwise, it transmits the control information to the slave unit 120. The control information includes identification information indicating the execution target. The main control unit 500 and the control unit 700 determine whether the identification information belongs to the local unit; if so, they determine that the control information belongs to the local unit; otherwise, they determine that the control information belongs to the local unit.

[0106] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 9 The working process of a drying device is illustrated. As an example, when the main control unit 500 determines that the received control information does not need to be executed by the main unit, it generates control information containing the identification information of the corresponding slave unit and transmits the control information to the control unit 700 in the next-level slave unit 120. The control unit 700 receives the control information and determines whether the control information is a control command of the main unit. If so, the control information is executed; otherwise, the control information is transmitted to the control unit 700 in the next-level slave unit 120, and so on, until the control information is executed.
