Wardrobe and clothes dryer

Abstract

The invention relates to a wardrobe and a clothes dryer. A clothes hanger is designed to have a folded state and an unfolded state and can be switched between the folded state and the unfolded state. When the main machine is in a relatively large-capacity state, the clothes hanger can be switched to an unfolded state, and the size in the preset direction is increased; when the main machine is in a relatively small capacity state, the clothes hanger can be switched to a folded state, and the size of the clothes hanger in the preset direction is reduced. Due to the fact that the clothes cover comprises the split covers which are sequentially and detachably connected in the preset direction, when the clothes hanger is in the folded state, all the split covers can be separated, and at least one split cover is arranged on the clothes hanger in the folded state in a covering mode. According to the design, the wardrobe can be effectively and rapidly matched with main machines with different clothes drying capacity forms by switching different states of the clothes hanger and splitting or expanding the clothes cover, so that the use performance of the clothes dryer is improved.

[0041] A clothes dryer generally consists of two parts: a wardrobe and a host. To meet the different needs of users, the host is designed with different drying capacity structures. For example, for drying relatively few clothes, such as 6 to 8 pieces of clothes, the host can be designed with a single air duct structure; for drying relatively more clothes, the host can be designed with multiple air ducts and a high-power structure. However, for hosts that can switch between different drying capacity forms, traditional wardrobes are usually fixed-specification structures. Therefore, for hosts with relatively large drying capacity forms, two additional wardrobes are required, and specific fixed installations are required. This design makes it impossible for the wardrobe to effectively and conveniently match hosts with different drying capacity forms, which reduces the performance of the dryer.

[0042] Based on this, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides a wardrobe 100, which includes: a plurality of support components 30, a hanger 10 and a cover 20. The hanger 10 is arranged on the support component 30, and forms a receiving space 40 for storing the host 200 with the support component 30. The hanger 10 is configured to be switchable between a folded state and an unfolded state to change the size of the hanger 10 in a preset direction X, wherein the preset direction X intersects with the height direction Y of the wardrobe 100. The cover 20 is arranged to cover the hanger 10 in the unfolded state and wrap the support component 30. The cover 20 includes split covers 21 connected in sequence along the preset direction X, and two adjacent split covers 21 are detachably connected, and each split cover 21 is configured to cover the hanger 10 in the folded state.

[0043] In the above-mentioned wardrobe 100, the hanger 10 is designed to have a folded state and an unfolded state, and can be switched between the two states. When the host 200 is in a relatively large capacity state, the hanger 10 can be switched to the unfolded state to increase the size in the preset direction X; when the host 200 is in a relatively small capacity state, the hanger 10 can be switched to the folded state to reduce its size in the preset direction X. Since the clothing cover 20 includes split covers 21 that are detachably connected in sequence along the preset direction X, when the hanger 10 is in the folded state, each split cover 21 can be separated, and at least one split cover 21 can be placed on the hanger 10 in the folded state. With such a design, by switching between different states of the hanger 10 and splitting or expanding the clothing cover 20, the wardrobe 100 can effectively and quickly match the host 200 with different drying capacity forms, thereby helping to improve the performance of the dryer.

[0044] It should be noted that the support assembly 30 refers to a structure that can support the hanger 10 and provide effective support for the wardrobe 100. The support assembly 30 can be designed as a fixed structure, or as a structure that can be adjusted along the height direction Y of the wardrobe 100. For example, the support assembly 30 includes a plurality of support rods 31 connected in sequence, and two adjacent support rods 31 can be designed to be sleeved to achieve the expansion and contraction of the support assembly 30 in the height direction Y; or, the two adjacent support rods 31 are detachably connected, such as threaded connection, clamping, etc., so that the size of the support assembly 30 along the height direction Y can be changed by disassembling one or more of the support rods 31. When the host 200 is accommodated in the accommodation space 40, the support assembly 30 can be supported on the host 200 or on the ground. For example, when the host 200 is in a relatively large capacity state, the support assembly 30 can be supported on the host 200; when the host 200 is in a relatively small capacity state, the support assembly 30 is supported on the ground or other platforms to reduce the space occupied by the host 200. In addition, in order to ensure that the support assembly 30 is stably supported on the ground or other platforms, the support assembly 30 may further include a support 32 , and the support rod 31 is disposed on the support 32 .

[0045] Among them, the host 200 having different drying capacity forms means that the host 200 can be designed into structures with different drying capacities, so that it can effectively dry different amounts of clothes. For example, the host 200 can include a first component 210 and a second component 220 that work independently of each other, and the first component 210 and the second component 220 are detachably connected. When the amount of clothes is large, the first component 210 and the second component 220 are connected and work at the same time, and the volume of the host 200 is relatively increased; when the amount of clothes is relatively small, the first component 210 and the second component 220 are separated, so that the first component 210 or the second component 220 works independently, and the volume of the host 200 is relatively small. For this reason, the wardrobe 100 of this embodiment can effectively and quickly match the host 200 with different drying capacities.

[0046] In this embodiment, the hanger 10 has a folded state and an unfolded state. The folded state means that at least two parts of the hanger 10 are overlapped with each other to reduce the size in the preset direction X; the unfolded state means that at least two parts of the hanger 10 are unfolded with each other to reduce the degree of overlap, so that the size of the hanger 10 in the preset direction X is increased. The hanger 10 switches between the folded state and the unfolded state in a variety of ways, such as: overlapping or unfolding at least two parts of the hanger 10 by sliding; or overlapping or unfolding at least two parts of the hanger 10 by rotating.

[0047] It should also be noted that the clothing cover 20 refers to a structure covering the hanger 10 and surrounding the support assembly 30, which can provide a relatively closed environment for the host 200. The clothing cover 20 includes split covers 21 that are connected to each other. When the split covers 21 are connected to each other, the clothing cover 20 can cover the hanger 10 in the unfolded state; when the split covers 21 are separated from each other, each split cover 21 can cover the hanger 10 in the folded state. For example: the host 200 may include a first component 210 and a second component 220 that work independently of each other. When the first component 210 or the second component 220 is accommodated in the accommodating space 40, the hanger 10 can be switched to the folded state, and each split cover 21 can be separated, so that at least one split cover 21 covers the hanger 10 in the folded state. In this way, the wardrobe 100 can be disassembled quickly and the operation is simple. Of course, if the host 200 includes both the first component 210 and the second component 220 , the separate covers 21 can be spliced ​​together to achieve rapid expansion of the wardrobe 100 .

[0048] In addition, the number of the split covers 21 can be two, three or more. When there are more than three split covers 21, the split covers 21 at the ends can be structurally designed to have a closed structure on one side compared to the split covers 21 at the middle part, so that the clothing cover 20 is closed on both sides along the preset direction X. At the same time, there are many ways to connect the split covers 21 to the split covers 21, such as but not limited to snap connection, magic sticking, magnetic suction, zipper, etc.

[0049] For further information, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Fig.12 The hanger 10 includes a first supporting assembly 11 and a second supporting assembly 12 connected in sequence along a preset direction X. The first supporting assembly 11 moves relative to the second supporting assembly 12 so that the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are overlapped or unfolded. The first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are both arranged on the supporting assembly 30 to form a receiving space 40. It can be seen that the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are movably connected to each other, and the movement between the two allows the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 to be quickly overlapped or unfolded, so as to facilitate the rapid adjustment of the size of the hanger 10 in the preset direction X, thereby quickly realizing the expansion or contraction of the wardrobe 100.

[0050] It should be noted that after the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are unfolded, the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are both supported on the supporting assembly 30, so that the enclosed accommodation space 40 is increased. At this time, each split cover 21 is respectively covered on the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12, and connected to each other. When the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are superimposed, the superimposed first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are still supported on the supporting assembly 30, and the enclosed accommodation space 40 is reduced. In order to match the small-capacity dry clothes, each split cover 21 can be separated, and the split cover 21 is set on the superimposed first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12.

[0051] The first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are movably connected, and there are many ways of connection, such as sliding fit, rotational connection, pin connection, etc. At the same time, after the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 are unfolded, the end of the first supporting assembly 11 can abut against the end of the second supporting assembly 12 to limit the movable angle of the two; or, a limiting protrusion structure can be set on the first supporting assembly 11 or the second supporting assembly 12, and when the two move to a certain extent, the limiting protrusion structure can limit the relative movement of the two, so that the two maintain a relatively stable unfolded state.

[0052] In addition, in addition to the first supporting component 11 and the second supporting component 12, the hanger 10 may also include other supporting components. For example, the hanger 10 can be designed into a structure with more than three sections that can move with each other, so that the hanger 10 can be folded or unfolded twice or more.

[0053] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The first supporting assembly 11 is rotatably connected to the second supporting assembly 12, and the first supporting assembly 11 can be rotatably overlapped on the second supporting assembly 12. In this way, through the rotatable connection mode, the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12 can be quickly overlapped or unfolded, which is convenient for improving the operating efficiency of expanding or shrinking the wardrobe 100.

[0054] Among them, there are also various designs for the rotation methods of the first supporting component 11 and the second supporting component 12, for example: the first supporting component 11 can be hinged to the second supporting component 12 through a hinge; or, a rotating shaft is introduced, and shaft holes that cooperate with the rotating shaft are set on the first supporting component 11 and the second supporting component 12.

[0055] For further information, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 The first supporting component 11 is provided with a first clamping portion 111, and the second supporting component 12 is provided with a second clamping portion 121. When the first supporting component 11 is rotated and overlapped on the second supporting component 12, the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 are clamped. In this way, the first supporting component 11 is stably overlapped on the second supporting component 12 through the clamping of the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121, thereby ensuring that the hanger 10 after the overlap is more stable. In addition, through the clamping method, it is also convenient to quickly separate the first supporting component 11 from the second supporting component 12, so as to facilitate the rapid expansion of the wardrobe 100.

[0056] It should be noted that one of the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 can be designed as a protruding structure, and the other can be designed as a groove structure, so that the protruding structure can be inserted into the groove structure. The specific structures of the protruding structure and the groove structure can be designed in a variety of ways, as long as they can meet the requirements of the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 121 being clamped together. For example, please refer to Figure 5 The first clamping portion 111 includes at least two parallel and spaced spring pieces 11a, each of which is provided with a clamping protrusion 11b; please refer to Figure 7 The second clamping portion 121 includes a first groove section 12a and a second groove section 12b that are connected. The cross-sectional area of ​​the second groove section 12b is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first groove section 12a, and a clamping table 12c is formed between the two. Each spring piece 11a is inserted into the first groove section 12a and the second groove section 12b in sequence, so that the clamping protrusion 11b is clamped on the clamping table 12c.

[0057] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The first supporting component 11 is provided with a first fixing portion 112 and a second fixing portion 113 on two surfaces along its thickness direction, respectively. The first fixing portion 112 and the second fixing portion 113 are respectively located at two ends of the first supporting component 11 along the preset direction X, and the first fixing portion 112 and the second fixing portion 113 are both used to connect with the supporting component 30.

[0058] It can be seen that the first fixing portion 112 and the second fixing portion 113 are respectively provided on the two surfaces of the first supporting component 11, so that whether the first supporting component 11 is folded or unfolded, it is ensured that one of the first fixing portion 112 and the second fixing portion 113 can be exposed, so that the first supporting component 11 is connected to the supporting component 30 through the first fixing portion 112 or the second fixing portion 113. For example: when the first supporting component 11 is unfolded relative to the second supporting component 12, the first supporting component 11 can be fixed to the supporting component 30 through the first fixing portion 112, and when the first supporting component 11 is folded relative to the second supporting component 12, the first fixing portion 112 can be covered by the second supporting component 12, and at this time, the first supporting component 11 can be fixed to the supporting component 30 through the second fixing portion 113.

[0059] Among them, the structures of the first fixing part 112 and the second fixing part 113 can be designed as a protruding structure, and in this case, the support component 30 needs to be provided with a groove or hole structure that cooperates with the protruding structure; or, the structures of the first fixing part 112 and the second fixing part 113 can be designed as a groove or hole structure, and the support component 30 needs to be provided with a protruding structure.

[0060] In addition, the number of the first fixing part 112 and the second fixing part 113 can be one or more. When the number of the first fixing part 112 and the second fixing part 113 are both more than one, fixing positions corresponding to the number of the first fixing part 112 or the second fixing part 113 are also set on the support component 30.

[0061] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 8The second supporting component 12 includes a main body part 122 and a storage component 123. The storage component 123 and the first supporting component 11 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the main body part 122 along the preset direction X, and the storage component 123 and the first supporting component 11 are rotatably overlapped on the same side or different sides of the main body part 122. It can be seen that when the hanger 10 needs to be stored, the first supporting component 11 can be overlapped on the surface of the main body part 122, and the storage component 123 can be overlapped on the other surface of the main body part 122, or the storage component 123 can be rotated and overlapped on the side of the main body part 122 facing the first supporting component 11, which greatly reduces the size of the hanger 10 in the preset direction X, thereby effectively improving the storage performance of the wardrobe 100. In addition, when the storage component 123 and the first supporting component 11 are rotated and overlapped on the same side of the main body component 122, the storage component 123 can be overlapped on a surface of the first supporting component 11 facing away from the main body component 122, so that the main body component 122, the first supporting component 11 and the storage component 123 are stacked in sequence, thereby making the first supporting component 11, the main body component 122 and the storage component 123 fit tightly together, thereby improving the compactness of storage.

[0062] It should be noted that there are also various designs for the rotation methods of the storage component 123 and the main body component 122. For example, the storage component 123 can be hinged to the main body component 122 through a hinge; or, a rotating shaft is introduced, and shaft holes that cooperate with the rotating shaft are provided on both the storage component 123 and the main body component 122.

[0063] It should also be noted that when the second supporting assembly 12 includes a main body part 122 and a storage part 123, the second clamping portion 121 can be set on the main body part 122, so that when the first supporting assembly 12 is rotated and overlapped on the main body part 122, the first clamping portion 111 is clamped on the second clamping portion 121 of the main body part 122.

[0064] In addition, there are various structural designs for the storage component 123, the main component 122 and the first supporting component 11. For example, the storage component 123, the main component 122 and the first supporting component 11 can be designed as rod-shaped, frame-shaped, plate-shaped or other structures.

[0065] For specific embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The first supporting assembly 11 includes two first supporting rods 114 arranged in parallel and at intervals and a first connecting rod 115 connected between the two first supporting rods 114; the storage component 123 includes two second supporting rods 12e arranged in parallel and at intervals and a second connecting rod 12f connected between the two second supporting rods 12e; the main body component 122 includes a plurality of third supporting rods 12d arranged in parallel and at intervals, each third supporting rod 12d is rotatably connected between the first supporting rod 114 and the second supporting rod 12e. In addition, in order to improve the structural stability of the first supporting assembly 11 and the storage component 123, the first supporting assembly 11 may further include a first reinforcing rod 116, the first reinforcing rod 116 is connected between the two first supporting rods 114, and the storage component 123 may further include a second reinforcing rod 12g, the second reinforcing rod 12g is connected between the two second supporting rods 12e. At the same time, in order to facilitate the clothes to be stably hung on the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12, a groove is set on at least one of the first supporting rod 114, the second supporting rod 12e, the first connecting rod 115, the second connecting rod 12f and the third supporting rod 12d.

[0066] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig.11 and Fig.12 , the second supporting assembly 12 is provided with a slideway 126 extending along a preset direction X, and the first supporting assembly 11 is slidably arranged on the slideway 126 and is positionally adjusted along the preset direction X. It can be seen that, through the slideway 126, the first supporting assembly 11 slides relative to the second supporting assembly 12 along the preset direction X, thereby realizing the overlap and unfolding of the first supporting assembly 11 and the second supporting assembly 12.

[0067] It should be noted that the slide 126 can be set on the surface of the second supporting component 12, so that the first supporting component 11 can be slidably clamped on the slide 126, so that the first supporting component 11 can slide stably on the slide 126; the slide 126 can also be set inside the second supporting component 12, such as: the slide 126 is set on one end face of the second supporting component 12 and extends along the preset direction X, so that a part of the first supporting component 11 is passed through the slide 126, so that the first supporting component 11 slides along the preset direction X in the second supporting component 12.

[0068] To further improve the sliding stability of the first supporting component 11 , a limiting recess may be provided on one of the first supporting component 11 and the inner wall of the slideway 126 , and a limiting protrusion 118 cooperating with the limiting recess may be provided on the other.

[0069] In addition, in order to ensure that the first supporting component 11 stays stably on the slide 126, a locking structure can be set between the first supporting component 11 and the slide 126, for example: a plurality of first positioning holes 117 are set on the first supporting component 11 along the preset direction X, and a second positioning hole 124 is set on the second supporting component 12, and the positioning member 125 is inserted into the second positioning hole 124 and different first positioning holes 117, so that the first supporting component 11 is fixed at the required position in the slide 126.

[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The wardrobe 100 further includes a shielding component 50. The sides of each split cover 21 facing each other have an opening 211. When the split cover 21 is placed on the clothes hanger 10 in a stacked state, the shielding component 50 is connected to the split cover 21 and covers the opening 211. It can be seen that when each split cover 21 is separated, at least one side of the split cover 21 has an opening 211. If a single split cover 21 is placed on the clothes hanger 10 in a stacked state, the opening 211 is not closed, which will affect the drying effect. For this reason, the shielding component 50 is introduced in this embodiment, and the opening 211 is closed by the shielding component 50, so that the inside of the split cover 21 is in a closed state, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0071] It should be noted that, when the clothing cover 20 is composed of two split covers 21, each split cover 21 has an opening 211; when the clothing cover 20 is composed of more than three split covers 21, the split covers 21 located at both ends of the preset direction X have an opening 211, and the split cover 21 located in the middle part has two openings 211. If the split cover 21 is placed on the hanger 10 in a folded state, two shielding components 50 are required.

[0072] In addition, there are many ways to fix the shielding component 50 on the split cover 21. For example, the shielding component 50 can be fixed on the split cover 21 by Velcro bonding, snap connection, magnetic attraction, hanging, etc.

[0073] For further information, please refer to Fig.10 , the shielding component 50 includes a hook 51, a reel 52, and a shielding member 53 disposed on the reel 52. The reel 52 is used to roll up or release the shielding member 53. The reel 52 is disposed on the split cover 21 through the hook 51. The shielding member 53 is used to cover the opening 211. It can be seen that when the split cover 21 is covered on the clothes hanger 10 in a folded state, the reel 52 releases the shielding member 53 and is hung on the split cover 21 through the hook 51, so that the shielding component 50 is quickly assembled on the split cover 21. At the same time, when the split cover 21 is used in combination at the same time, the reel 52 can be removed from the hook 51, and the shielding member 53 can be wound on the reel 52, so that the shielding component 50 can be effectively stored and the storage space can be reduced.

[0074] It should be noted that when the shielding member 53 covers the opening 211, it can be connected to the split cover 21, for example, magnets are provided on both the shielding member 53 and the split cover 21; or, one of the shielding member 53 and the split cover 21 is provided with a Velcro fur surface and the other is provided with a Velcro hook surface, etc., so as to improve the sealing between the shielding member 53 and the split cover 21. Of course, the shielding member 53 may not be connected to the split cover 21, so that the shielding member 53 is suspended on the split cover 21.

[0075] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 Each split cover 21 includes a top 214 and a plurality of side portions 215 surrounding the periphery of the top 214. The top 214 covers the hanger 10, and the side portions 215 surround the support assembly 30. The side portions 215 are detachably connected to the top 214. It can be seen that when the split cover 21 is covered on the hanger 10 in the folded state or the unfolded state, the top 214 covers the hanger 10, and the side portions 215 surround the periphery of the support assembly 30, so that the accommodating space 40 is in a relatively closed state.

[0076] It should be noted that the side portion 215 and the top portion 214 are detachably connected, so that the split cover 21 can be detached and stored by separating the side portion 215 and the top portion 214 during storage, which can further reduce the storage space. There are many detachable connection methods, such as but not limited to magnetic attraction, snap connection, Velcro, etc. Specifically in some embodiments, magnets are provided between the side portion 215 and the top portion 214, so that the side portion 215 can be quickly connected to the top portion 214.

[0077] At the same time, the number of side portions 215 can be determined according to the shape of the wardrobe 100. Taking a square wardrobe 100 and two split covers 21 as an example, each split cover 21 has three side portions 215, and the three side portions 215 are respectively provided with edges 21a of the top 214, wherein the two side portions 215 and one end of the top 214 can be enclosed to form an opening 211.

[0078] For further information, please refer to Fig.13 Each split cover 21 further includes a frame 22, and the edge 21a connecting the top 214 and the side 215 has a fixing hole 212, and the frame 22 is inserted into the fixing hole 212. It can be seen that the frame 22 is inserted into the fixing hole 212 to improve the overall structural stability of the top 214, so that the clothing cover 20 maintains a certain plasticity; at the same time, it is also convenient for the clothing cover 20 to be quickly spliced. In addition, when the clothing cover 20 is stored or unfolded, the frame 22 has a certain plasticity, so that the hanger 10 can be quickly stored and unfolded.

[0079] The frame 22 may be made of a variety of materials, such as but not limited to metal, plastic, wood, etc. Of course, the frame 22 may be made of a light material as much as possible to reduce the overall weight of the wardrobe 100. In addition, the fixing hole 212 on the top 214 may be formed in a variety of ways, such as curling the edge 21a of the top 214 to form the fixing hole 212; or sewing or bonding a structure on the edge 21a of the top 214 so that the structure and the edge 21a of the top 214 enclose the fixing hole 212, etc.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Fig.13 and Fig.14 On each edge 21a where the top 214 and the side 215 are connected, there are a plurality of fixing holes 212, and all the fixing holes 212 are arranged in parallel and at intervals, and there is an isolation groove 213 between two adjacent fixing holes 212. The isolation groove 213 means that there is a certain gap between two fixing holes 212, so that the frames 22 between the fixing holes 212 are separated, so that when storing, the storage effect will not be affected due to the abutment between the frames 22.

[0081] For ease of understanding, taking the square split cover 21 as an example, during storage, the top 214 can be folded downward, and the side portions 215 located on both sides of the opening 211 can be folded inward; then, each side portion 215 can be folded in a center folding manner along the height direction Y of the clothing cover 20; after folding, the folded side portions 215 can be folded in a center folding manner again to greatly reduce the volume of the clothing cover 20 and reduce the storage space. Of course, there are many other folding methods, as long as the split cover 21 can be effectively folded and stored.

[0082] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application provides a clothes dryer, which includes a host 200 and a wardrobe 100 as described above, and the host 200 is accommodated in a receiving space 40.

[0083] The above-mentioned clothes dryer adopts the above-mentioned wardrobe 100, and the clothes hanger 10 is designed to have a folded state and an unfolded state, and can be switched between the two states. When the host 200 is in a relatively large capacity state, the clothes hanger 10 can be switched to the unfolded state to increase the size in the preset direction X; when the host 200 is in a relatively small capacity state, the clothes hanger 10 can be switched to the folded state to reduce its size in the preset direction X. Since the clothing cover 20 includes split covers 21 that are detachably connected in sequence along the preset direction X, when the clothes hanger 10 is in the folded state, each split cover 21 can be separated, and at least one split cover 21 can be placed on the clothes hanger 10 in the folded state. With such a design, by switching between different states of the clothes hanger 10 and splitting or expanding the clothes cover 20, the wardrobe 100 can effectively and quickly match the hosts 200 with different drying capacity forms, thereby facilitating the use performance of the clothes dryer.

[0084] It should be noted that the host 200 has different drying capacity forms, for example, the host 200 may include a first component 210 and a second component 220, and the first component 210 and the second component 220 can work independently, that is, the first component 210 and the second component 220 both include components such as a fan and a heating element. When the first component 210 and the second component 220 are combined and simultaneously accommodated in the accommodation space 40, the hanger 10 can be switched to an unfolded state, and each split cover 21 is sequentially connected to each other to match the host 200 with a relatively large drying capacity form. When the first component 210 and the second component 220 are separated, and the first component 210 or the second component 220 is accommodated in the accommodation space 40 alone, the hanger 10 can be switched to a folded state, and each split cover 21 is separated from each other, so that one of the split covers 21 is covered on the hanger 10 in the folded state, thereby effectively matching the host 200 with a relatively small drying capacity form.

[0085] 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.

[0086] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
