Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to clothes drying machines, and in particular to a clothes drying machine. Background Art
[0002] Most of the current clothes drying machines have a drying function, so most of the clothes drying machine hosts have built-in fans. In addition, since the airflow blown by the fan is concentrated and the drying area is relatively small, the current clothes drying machine hosts usually need to be equipped with corresponding diversion ducts to divert the airflow to ensure the drying area of the clothes drying machine.
[0003] Taking into account factors such as indoor space utilization and aesthetics, the main unit of the clothes drying machine is mostly embedded in the room ceiling.

[0028] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0031] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only implementation method.
[0032] The fans and air ducts of traditional clothes drying machines are located inside the main unit. The centrifugal fans and air duct structures usually occupy at least 60% of the space of the main unit. Since the air duct is the highest component in the main unit, it determines the thickness of the main unit. Therefore, the thickness of the main unit of the current clothes drying machine is mostly thick and cannot be embedded in the ceiling of the room, which cannot meet the current user demand for ultra-thin clothes drying machines.
[0033] In addition, since the fan and the air duct are both located inside the main unit, the airflow generated by the existing fan is blown downward directly from the main unit. Before the airflow moves to the clothes, it overflows a lot on the path between the clothes and the air outlet of the main unit. A part of the hot air flow is directly diverted and overflowed and cannot reach the clothes, and the remaining part of the airflow that reaches the clothes loses heat during the movement, resulting in low drying efficiency.
[0034] Please combine Figure 1 as well as Figure 2As shown, the present application first provides a clothes drying machine, including a clothes hanger body, a care module and a fan 30, the care module is externally arranged on the clothes hanger body, and the fan 30 is arranged on the clothes hanger body and / or the care module; the care module includes a shell 10, the shell 10 is provided with an air outlet 13, and the fan 30 can drive air to be discharged through the air outlet 13 to dry clothes.
[0035] The clothes hanger body in this article is the main unit of a traditional clothes drying machine.
[0036] In the present application, the care module is placed outside the clothes hanger body, and the air flow is discharged through the care module to dry the clothes, that is, the air duct structure in the clothes hanger is placed outside the clothes hanger body, so that there is no need to set up the air duct structure inside the clothes hanger body, thereby reducing the space and thickness requirements of the clothes hanger body, so that the thickness of the clothes hanger body is thinner than that of the traditional clothes hanger, thereby meeting the demand of embedding the clothes hanger body in the ceiling of the room.
[0037] In some embodiments, the fan 30 is disposed in the hanger body. At this time, the fan 30 and the air inlet 11 of the shell 10 can be connected by a ventilation pipe, or the two can be connected after the care module rises to the set position. As long as the airflow path between the fan 30 and the care module is a closed path, the present application does not make further limitations here; thereby ensuring that the airflow generated by the fan 30 can be blown into the care module while avoiding overflow of the airflow in the process of flowing from the hanger body to the care module; thereby reducing the airflow loss while reducing the thickness of the hanger body, thereby improving the drying efficiency.
[0038] In some embodiments, the clothes drying machine also includes a lifting frame, and the two ends of the lifting frame are respectively connected to the clothes hanger body and the care module. In the present application, the air outlet 13 is opened in the care module, and the care module discharges air to dry the clothes. Since the care module can be raised and lowered under the drive of the lifting frame, compared with the airflow generated by the fan in the traditional clothes drying machine is directly blown downward by the main unit, the distance between the air outlet 13 of the care module and the clothes in the present application is smaller, and the airflow overflow is less, thereby reducing the airflow loss and improving the drying efficiency.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the shell 10 is further provided with an air inlet 11 and a receiving chamber 12, the receiving chamber 12 is connected to the outside of the shell 10 through the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 13, the fan 30 is arranged in the receiving chamber 12 and can drive the external air to flow in the order of the air inlet 11, the receiving chamber 12 and the air outlet 13.
[0040] Placing the fan 30 in the nursing module has the following advantages:
[0041] First, the fan 30 of the clothes drying machine needs to be cleaned and maintained regularly, especially when the care module also has components such as the steam generating assembly 40. If the fan 30 is not cleaned and maintained in time, the dust or fibers accumulated on the fan blades of the fan 30 may enter the accommodating chamber 12 with the air flow and block the steam generating assembly 40, thereby causing the steam generating assembly 40 to have a reduced air output or even be damaged. The fan 30 of the traditional clothes drying machine is mostly located in the clothes hanger body fixed to the ceiling or wall, and it is relatively difficult to clean and maintain the fan 30. In the present application, when the fan 30 needs to be maintained or replaced, the height of the care module can be lowered by the lifting frame to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the fan 30.
[0042] Secondly, compared with other solutions in which the fan is arranged in the hanger body, the fan 30 is no longer required to be installed in the hanger body, and there is no need to design an air duct docking structure between the hanger body and the care module, which further reduces the space and thickness requirements of the hanger body;
[0043] Finally, compared with other solutions in which the fan is set inside the hanger body, after the fan 30 is built into the care module, the path of the airflow is shortened, thereby reducing the consumption of the airflow generated by the fan 30 on the path, thereby achieving the effect of reducing airflow loss and improving drying efficiency.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the air inlet 11 is located on the side of the shell 10; the side here refers to the other outer surfaces of the shell 10 except the outer surface in the vertical direction. By opening the air inlet 11 on the side of the shell 10, dust or other foreign matter falling into the air inlet 11 due to its own weight can be reduced, thereby achieving a certain dust and foreign matter prevention effect.
[0045] Of course, the air inlet 11 may also be disposed on the outer surface of the housing 10 in the vertical direction, and this application does not make any further limitations here.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the fan 30 corresponds to the air inlet 11, and the axial direction of the fan 30 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the air outlet 13, so that the air flow path of the housing 10 is L-shaped.
[0047] The airflow blown by the fan 30 will collide with the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 12 or the inner wall of the air outlet 13. Although the collision will reduce the wind speed of the airflow to a certain extent, it will also destroy the aggregation of the airflow, so that the airflow can be discharged from the air outlet 13 in a more dispersed manner, further increasing the drying area to meet the needs of large-area drying.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the airflow path of the housing 10 is Z-shaped or has multiple bends. As long as the airflow blown out by the fan 30 collides with the inner wall of the path and is dispersed, the present application will not make further comparisons here.
[0049] Of course, if a linear airflow path is adopted, the airflow dispersion area can be increased by increasing the distance between the fan 30 and the air outlet 13, but it will inevitably lead to an increase in the volume of the care module. Therefore, the axial direction of the fan 30 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the air outlet 13. This can ensure the airflow dispersion area while reducing the volume of the care module as much as possible.
[0050] It should be noted that the air duct structure can be placed outside the hanger body. You can choose not to set the air duct structure, or you can choose to set the air duct structure in the care module, as long as there is no need to set the air duct structure in the hanger body.
[0051] Taking the example of a clothes drying rack without an air duct structure, in some embodiments, the fan 30 is an axial flow fan. The airflow blown out by the axial flow fan is more dispersed than that of the centrifugal fan. Therefore, there is no need to set up an additional diversion air duct or diversion structure, so that there is no need to set up an air duct structure in the hanger body, reducing the space and thickness requirements of the hanger body.
[0052] Taking the air duct structure set in the nursing module as an example, please combine Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the care module includes a shell 10 and at least one air duct clothing support 20; the air duct clothing support 20 is provided with a clothing support air duct 20a, and the air duct clothing support 20 is fixed to the shell 10 so that one end of the clothing support air duct 20a is connected to the air outlet 13, and the fan 30 can drive the air to pass through the air outlet 13 and be discharged along the other end of the clothing support air duct 20a.
[0053] The duct clothes rack 20 can not only hang clothes normally, but also serve as the duct structure in a traditional clothes drying machine. Since the duct clothes rack 20 is fixed to the shell 10, that is, the duct structure is arranged in the care module, it is no longer necessary to arrange the duct structure in the clothes hanger body, thereby reducing the space and thickness requirements of the clothes hanger body.
[0054] In addition, by connecting the duct clothes stand 20 with the clothes stand air duct 20a to the air outlet 13, the airflow generated by the fan can be directly sprayed into the inside of the clothes through the outlet of the clothes stand air duct 20a, thereby effectively increasing the contact area between the airflow and the clothes. At the same time, the clothes themselves can also be regarded as part of the air duct. Before the airflow acts on the clothes, it will hardly overflow to the outside, thereby greatly improving the drying efficiency.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the air outlet 13 and one end of the clothes support air duct 20a for discharging air face the same direction; so that the airflow discharged from the air outlet 13 can be discharged directly along the clothes support air duct 20a without colliding with the inner wall of the clothes support air duct 20a, thereby increasing the wind speed of the airflow discharged from the clothes support air duct 20a and increasing the drying efficiency.
[0056] Preferably, one end of the air outlet 13 and the clothes hanger air duct 20a that exhausts air is both facing the ground. Since the clothes will naturally droop under the action of their own gravity after being hung on the air duct clothes hanger 20, the air outlet 13 and the clothes hanger air duct 20a are both facing the ground. This can make the dispersed airflow blown out of the clothes hanger air duct 20a flow downward along the inside of the clothes, thereby achieving comprehensive and uniform drying of the clothes.
[0057] Of course, in some embodiments, the air outlet 13 and one end of the clothes support air duct 20a for exhausting air can also face different directions. For example, the air outlet 13 is located on the side of the shell 10, the air duct clothes support 20 is L-shaped, and one end of the clothes support air duct 20a for exhausting air faces the ground.
[0058] Please combine Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the air duct clothes support 20 includes a joint portion 21 and at least one clothes support portion 22, and each clothes support portion 22 is fixed to the joint portion 21; the clothes support air duct 20a includes a clothes support air inlet 21a and a clothes support air outlet 22a, the clothes support air inlet 21a is located in the joint portion 21 and is connected to the air outlet 13, each clothes support portion 22 has a clothes support air outlet 22a, one end of the clothes support air outlet 22a is connected to the clothes support air inlet 21a, and the other end is connected to the outside.
[0059] Since the duct clothes hanger 20 needs to be connected to the air outlet 13, by providing a plurality of clothes hanger parts 22 for a single duct clothes hanger 20, the number of clothes that can be hung on the single duct clothes hanger 20 can be increased, thereby maximizing the total number of clothes hung while keeping the same number of air outlets 13.
[0060] In some embodiments, the air duct clothing support 20 is detachably fixed to the shell 10 ; the care module also includes a cover plate, which can be fixedly connected to the shell 10 to block the air outlet 13 .
[0061] The duct clothes support 20 is detachably fixed to the shell 10, so that the user can choose to install different duct clothes supports 20 or covers at the air outlet 13 according to actual needs such as drying effect and number of clothes. Specifically, when the number of clothes to be hung is large, the duct clothes support 20 with relatively more clothes support parts 22 can be selected, and when the drying effect is higher, the duct clothes support 20 with a single clothes support part 22 can be selected, and the other air outlets 13 can be blocked by the cover.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a heating element 50 for heating air is disposed in the housing 10 to increase the drying effect.
[0063] Specifically, the heating element 50 may be a PTC (thermistor) or other heating component, which is not further limited in the present application; in addition, the shape of the heating element 50 may be square, circular, annular, etc., which is also not further limited in the present application.
[0064] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the care module further includes a steam generating assembly 40 , and the steam generating assembly 40 includes a water tank 41 and a steam generator 42 fixed relative to the water tank 41 .
[0065] The water tank 41 has a chamber inside that can hold water or other solutions for clothing care to meet the water supply needs of steam care. The steam generator 42 vaporizes the liquid in the water tank 41 into steam and discharges it into the accommodating chamber 12, and is blown to the clothing under the drive of the airflow generated by the fan 30, thereby completing the steam care.
[0066] Specifically, the steam generator 42 may be an electric heating wire (to achieve liquid vaporization through electric heating), an ultrasonic generator or other devices, as long as they can vaporize the liquid in the water tank 41 into steam.
[0067] The water tank 41 can be built into the shell 10, or partially built into the shell 10 and partially protruding from the outside of the shell 10, or completely arranged outside the shell 10; the water tank 41 can be integrally formed with the shell 10, or can be detachably connected to the shell 10; the steam generator 42 can be built into the water tank 41, or can be arranged outside the water tank 41, and the present application does not make any further limitations here.
[0068] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the water tank 41 is in contact with the side wall of the shell 10 or protrudes from the shell 10 , and a water inlet is provided in this portion to facilitate water replenishment into the water tank 41 .
[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, at least one side of the water tank 41 has an inclined guide surface 413 that can guide the airflow in the housing 10 to the air outlet 13 .
[0070] The guide surface 413 here can be a single inclined surface or curved surface, or a joint surface of multiple inclined surfaces or curved surfaces, as long as the guide surface 413 can guide the airflow; under the premise of ensuring the guiding effect of the guide surface 413, the water tank 41 can be any shape such as trapezoid, triangle, semi-hexagon, circle, ellipse, etc.
[0071] By aligning the guide surface 413 with the fan 30 so that the airflow of the fan 30 can collide and disperse with the guide surface 413, not only can the aggregation of the airflow be destroyed, but the airflow can also be guided to the air outlet 13, thereby minimizing the airflow velocity loss caused by the collision, thereby increasing the wind speed at the air outlet 13 and further increasing the drying effect of the clothes drying machine.
[0072] Of course, a separate air guide member may be provided on the housing 10 for guiding the airflow, and this application does not make any further limitation here.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the water tank 41 is located in the middle along the length direction of the housing 10 .
[0074] By arranging the water tank 41 at the middle position along the length direction of the shell 10, the same water tank 41 can simultaneously block the airflow flowing in from multiple side air inlets 11, so as to maximize the use of the internal space of the shell 10 and reduce the overall volume of the clothes drying machine.
[0075] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, at least one air outlet 13 is provided along the inclined direction of the guide surface 413 .
[0076] This ensures that the airflow blown out by the fan 30 can flow into the corresponding air outlet 13 under the guidance of the guide surface 413 after colliding and dispersing with the guide surface 413, thereby ensuring that dispersed airflow flows into each air outlet 13, thereby ensuring that the clothes hung on each air duct clothes rack 20 can be dried.
[0077] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam generating component 40 also includes a steam outlet 411, which is located in the shell 10; the steam generator 42 vaporizes the liquid in the water tank 41 into steam and discharges it into the accommodating cavity 12 through the steam outlet 411, and is blown to the clothing under the drive of the airflow generated by the fan 30, thereby completing steam care.
[0078] In some embodiments, the steam outlet 411 may also be located outside the housing 10, and the steam discharged from the steam outlet 411 is blown directly onto the clothing under the air flow belt to complete the steam care.
[0079] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the care module includes a shell 10 and at least one duct clothing support 20 connected to the air outlet 13; the steam generating component 40 also includes a steam pipeline 43, one end of the steam pipeline 43 is connected to the steam outlet 411, and the other end extends into the duct clothing support 20.
[0080] The steam generated in the water tank 41 can be guided to the duct clothes support 20 through the steam pipeline 43 to prevent the steam from liquefying in the accommodating cavity 12, thereby increasing the amount of steam sprayed onto the clothes and optimizing the effect of steam care.
[0081] In some embodiments, a pressure nozzle 412 capable of blocking the steam outlet 411 is fixedly provided at the position of the steam outlet 411, and the pressure nozzle 412 at one end of the steam pipe 43 is connected. As steam is generated in the water tank 41, the air pressure inside the water tank 41 gradually increases. Under the action of the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the water tank 41, the steam will pass through the pressure nozzle 412 and then be ejected from the other end of the steam pipe 43, so that the steam can be sprayed onto the clothes as much as possible, further optimizing the steam care effect.
[0082] Please combine Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 10 is further fixedly provided with a first contact 14 , and the fan 30 is electrically connected to the first contact 14 ; the hanger body is fixedly provided with a second contact capable of contacting and electrically connecting with the first contact 14 .
[0083] When the care module rises up to the first contact 14 and contacts the second contact under the drive of the lifting frame, the hanger body can supply power to the fan 30 , the steam generator 42 , the heating element 50 and other components in the care module through the first contact 14 .
[0084] In some embodiments, the care module further includes a battery, which is electrically connected to the blower 30 .
[0085] No matter where the care module is raised or lowered, the clothes can be dried by the fan 30 , which improves the versatility of the clothes drying machine on the one hand, and can also meet emergency needs in the event of a power outage on the other hand.
[0086] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0087] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
