[0039] Embodiment 1

[0040] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a clothes drying machine, which includes a main body 1, a clothes rod assembly 2, a winding assembly 4 and two traction ropes 3, wherein the clothes rod assembly 2 is arranged below the main body 1, the clothes rod assembly 2 extends along a first direction (left-right direction in the figure), and the two ends of the clothes rod assembly 2 along the left-right direction are respectively a first end and a second end, the clothes rod assembly 2 is used to hang a clothes hanger, one of the traction ropes 3 is used to pull the first end of the clothes rod assembly 2, and the other traction rope 3 is used to pull the second end of the clothes rod assembly 2, and the winding assembly 4 winds up one of the traction ropes 3 so that the heights of the first end of the clothes rod assembly 2 and the second end of the clothes rod assembly 2 are different. When the clothes on the hangers hung on the clothes rod assembly 2 are dried, the winding assembly 4 winds up one of the traction ropes 3 so that the heights of the first end of the clothes rod assembly 2 and the second end of the clothes rod assembly 2 are different, so that the hangers with clothes on them slide along the clothes rod assembly 2 to the first end or the second end with a lower height under the action of gravity, thereby automatically gathering the dried clothes at the end of the clothes rod assembly 2, making it more tidy and beautiful, and also ensuring the lighting effect at the location where the clothes drying machine is installed. In addition, by winding up one of the traction ropes 3 by the winding assembly 4, the clothes can be gathered, making the structure simple and easy to operate. It should be noted that when the clothes rod assembly 2 is needed to dry clothes normally, the winding assembly 4 releases the wound traction rope 3 to ensure that the clothes rod assembly 2 is in a horizontal state again.

[0041] For example, it is assumed that the left end of the clothes rod assembly 2 is the first end, and the right end of the clothes rod assembly 2 is the second end. Figure 2 As shown, the winding assembly 4 winds up the traction rope 3 at the left end so that the left end of the clothes rod assembly 2 is higher than the right end of the clothes rod assembly 2, so that the hanger with clothes can slide along the clothes rod assembly 2 to the right end of the clothes rod assembly 2 under the action of gravity, thereby automatically gathering the dried clothes at the right end of the clothes rod assembly 2.

[0042] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the clothes drying machine further includes a lifting drive assembly (not shown in the figure), which is disposed in the main unit 1 and is used to synchronously wind up or release the two traction ropes 3 so that the two traction ropes 3 pull the clothes rod assembly 2 to rise and fall horizontally relative to the main unit 1. When the clothes rod assembly 2 is in an idle state, the lifting drive assembly can synchronously wind up the two traction ropes 3, thereby lifting the clothes rod assembly 2 to the extreme position, so as to store the clothes rod assembly 2 and make it more neat and beautiful. Since the lifting drive assembly is in the form of a conventional motor and a winder, it will not be described in detail here.

[0043] Preferably, in the present embodiment, the clothes drying machine further comprises a humidity detection component (not shown in the figure), the humidity detection component is arranged on the clothes rod component 2, the humidity detection component is communicatively connected with the winding component 4, and the humidity detection component is used to detect the humidity value of the clothes on the hangers hung on the clothes rod component 2. When the humidity detection component detects that the humidity value of the clothes on each hanger hung on the clothes rod component 2 is lower than a preset value, the winding component 4 winds up one of the traction ropes 3 according to the detection value of the humidity detection component, thereby realizing the collection of the clothes. It should be noted that when the humidity detection component detects that the humidity value of the clothes on each hanger hung on the clothes rod component 2 is lower than a preset value, it proves that each piece of clothes on the clothes rod component 2 is dried. Specifically, the humidity detection component can be a humidity sensor, which has the advantages of sensitive detection and easy installation.

[0044] In this embodiment, the clothes drying machine further includes two scissor braces 5, which are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, and the top ends of the two scissor braces 5 are connected to the main machine 1, the bottom end of one of the scissor braces 5 is connected to the first end of the clothes rod assembly 2, and the bottom end of the other scissor brace 5 is connected to the second end of the clothes rod assembly 2. The movable connection between the clothes rod assembly 2 and the main machine 1 is realized by setting the scissor braces 5, which is more reliable. It should be noted that when the clothes rod assembly 2 rises relative to the main machine 1, the scissor braces 5 are in a compressed state, and when the clothes rod assembly 2 falls relative to the main machine 1, the scissor braces 5 are in an expanded state. Since the specific structure of the scissor braces 5 belongs to the prior art, it will not be repeated here.

[0045] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the clothes rod assembly 2 includes a clothes drying rod 22, a flexible connector 23 and two mounting rods 21, wherein the two mounting rods 21 are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, each mounting rod 21 is pulled by the traction rope 3 at the corresponding end, and each mounting rod 21 is connected to the bottom end of the scissor support 5 at the corresponding end, and the clothes drying rod 22 is located below the two mounting rods 21, and the clothes drying rod 22 is used to hang clothes hangers, and each mounting rod 21 is connected to the clothes drying rod 22 below through the flexible connector 23. The structural design of the clothes rod assembly 2 ensures that when the winding assembly 4 winds up one of the traction ropes 3, the two ends of the clothes drying rod 22 at the bottom in the left-right direction can be at different heights, thereby realizing the collection of clothes on the clothes drying rod 22.

[0046] Specifically, when the winding assembly 4 winds up the traction rope 3 at the left end, the mounting rod 21 at the left end is lifted, and the mounting rod 21 at the left end lifts the left end of the clothes-drying rod 22 through the flexible connector 23, ensuring that the clothes hung on the clothes-drying rod 22 are gathered to the right end of the clothes-drying rod 22. When the winding assembly 4 winds up the traction rope 3 at the right end, the mounting rod 21 at the right end is lifted, and the mounting rod 21 at the right end lifts the right end of the clothes-drying rod 22 through the flexible connector 23, ensuring that the clothes hung on the clothes-drying rod 22 are gathered to the left end of the clothes-drying rod 22.

[0047] Preferably, in this embodiment, the flexible connector 23 is a steel wire rope, which has the advantages of good winding performance and high connection strength.

[0048] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the clothes-drying rod 22 includes two clothes-drying rods 221 and two connecting rods 222, wherein the two clothes-drying rods 221 extend in the left-right direction, the two clothes-drying rods 221 are parallel and spaced in the front-back direction, the two connecting rods 222 are spaced in the left-right direction, the connecting rod 222 is connected between the two clothes-drying rods 221, one end of the flexible connector 23 is connected to the clothes-drying rod 221, the other end of the flexible connector 23 is connected to the mounting rod 21, and the clothes-drying rod 221 is used to hang clothes hangers. The structural design of the clothes-drying rod 22 ensures the structural stability of the clothes-drying rod 22 and also improves the drying position. It should be noted that in this embodiment, each clothes-drying rod 221 is connected to a flexible connector 23 at both ends in the left-right direction.

[0049] In this embodiment, only one of the mounting rods 21 is provided with a reeling assembly 4, which is used to reel in or release the traction rope 3 corresponding to the mounting rod 21, thereby reducing costs. It should be noted that in other embodiments, reeling assemblies 4 may be provided on both mounting rods 21, so that one of the reeling assemblies 4 can be reeled in as required, and the user can gather the clothes to the desired end as required, thereby making the gathering position of the clothes more flexible.

[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the winding assembly 4 includes a winding motor 41 and a take-up roller 42, wherein the winding motor 41 is arranged on the mounting rod 21, the take-up roller 42 is wound with a traction rope 3, the take-up roller 42 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the winding motor 41, and the winding motor 41 is used to drive the take-up roller 42 to rotate so that the take-up roller 42 reels or releases the traction rope 3. It should be noted that in this embodiment, at one end where the winding assembly 4 is arranged, the traction rope 3 of this end is directly connected to the take-up roller 42, and the end where the winding assembly 4 is not arranged connects the traction rope 3 to the mounting rod 21. The winding and releasing of the traction rope 3 can be realized by driving the take-up roller 42 to rotate by the winding motor 41, which has a simple structure and convenient operation.
