[0041] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a clothes drying machine, which includes a clothes drying main machine 10 and a care device, wherein the care device includes a care component 20, a first shell 24 installed on the clothes drying main machine 10, and a second shell 25 installed on the care component 20. The care component 20 can be connected to the clothes drying main machine 10 in a liftable manner to drive the second shell 25 to approach or move away from the first shell 24, and form an openable and closable care cavity 26 between the first shell 24 and the second shell 25.

[0042] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the clothes drying machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the care component 20 can be raised and lowered relative to the clothes drying main body 10, and is used to drive the second shell 25 to approach or move away from the first shell 24. When the care component 20 drives the second shell 25 away from the first shell 24, it is convenient to place the clothes on the second shell 25. Then, when the care component 20 drives the second shell 25 to approach the first shell 24 and contacts the first shell 24, the first shell 24 and the second shell 25 can form an openable care cavity 26. At this time, the care component 20 takes care of the clothes in the care cavity 26, and the care effect is good. After the care is completed, the care component 20 and the second shell 25 are away from the first shell 24, and the clothes are lowered to a certain position for easy removal.

[0043] In some embodiments, the clothes drying machine further comprises a clothes drying rack (not shown in the figure), the care device is mounted on the clothes drying rack, and the care device and the clothes drying rack are lifted and lowered together relative to the clothes drying main unit 10. In other embodiments, the clothes drying rack and the care device can be lifted and lowered independently relative to the clothes drying main unit 10.

[0044] It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the care button of the clothes drying host 10 is clicked, the clothes drying host 10 automatically detects whether the second housing 25 is at the top, and reminds the user if it is not. If it is, the care action is performed. When the care action is completed, the user is reminded that the clothes care is completed.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the care component 20 includes a mounting seat 21, a fan 22 disposed on the mounting seat 21, and a heating element 23 disposed at the air outlet end of the fan 22. The mounting seat 21 has an air cavity 211 and a first air outlet 212 respectively connected to the air cavity 211 and the care cavity 26. Specifically, the heating element 23 is preferably, but not limited to, a PTC heating element, and the heating element 23 is disposed between the fan 22 and the air duct path of the first air outlet 212, and is used to blow air with a certain temperature to the care cavity 26 through the first air outlet 212, and dry and care the clothes in the care cavity 26, with a good care effect.

[0046] Furthermore, the nursing component 20 further includes a driving member 27 mounted on the mounting seat 21 and a wind tube 28 drivingly connected to the driving member 27, wherein the wind tube 28 has an exhaust port 281 communicating with the wind cavity 211, and the wind tube 28 is used to rotate the exhaust port 281 to correspond to the first air outlet 212 under the drive of the driving member 27. Specifically, the driving member 27 is disposed at one end of the mounting seat 21 away from the fan 22, and the driving member 27 is drivingly connected to the wind tube 28 to drive the wind tube 28 to rotate, so that the exhaust port 281 rotates to correspond to the first air outlet 212, thereby connecting the wind cavity 211 with the nursing cavity 26.

[0047] In some embodiments, the mounting seat 21 also has a second air outlet 213 connected to the air cavity 211, and the care device also includes a clothes support 30 with a cavity, the clothes support 30 is installed on the mounting seat 21, and the driving member 27 is connected to the air cylinder 28 for rotating the exhaust port 281 to correspond to the second air outlet 213, so that the air cavity 211 can be connected to the cavity through the second air outlet 213. Specifically, the number of clothes supports 30 is a plurality of clothes supports 30 arranged along the length direction of the mounting seat 21. In this embodiment, the first air outlet 212 and the second air outlet 213 are both opened on the side of the mounting seat 21 to avoid the situation where the high-temperature airflow directly cares for the clothes.

[0048] It can be understood that when the driving member 27 drives the wind tube 28 to rotate to the second air outlet 213 and correspond to the exhaust port 281, the cavity can be connected with the wind cavity 211 through the second air outlet 213, thereby realizing internal drying of the clothes hung on the clothes rack 30, and the drying effect is excellent.

[0049] Combination Figures 3 to 5 As shown, preferably, the exhaust port 281 includes a first exhaust position 2811 and a second exhaust position 2812, the number of the second exhaust positions 2812 is greater than the number of the first exhaust positions 2811, and the first exhaust position 2811 and the second exhaust position 2812 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the wind tube 28. It should be noted that the number of the second exhaust positions 2812 is greater than the number of the first exhaust positions 2811, so that the driving member 27 can reasonably adjust the exhaust volume according to the specific conditions of the clothes during the process of driving the wind tube 28 to rotate. Specifically, the number of the second exhaust positions 2812 is greater than the number of the first exhaust positions 2811, so that the number of clothes hangers 30 corresponding to the second exhaust positions 2812 is greater than the number of clothes hangers 30 corresponding to the first exhaust positions 2811.

[0050] For example, the number of the first exhaust position 2811 is one, the number of the second exhaust position 2812 is two, and the number of the clothes hangers 30 is three. When one of the clothes hangers 30 is drying clothes, the driving member 27 drives the wind tube 28 to rotate so that the first exhaust position 2811 corresponds to the clothes hanger 30, and the clothes can be dried at this time. When two clothes hangers 30 are drying clothes, the driving member 27 drives the wind tube 28 to rotate so that the second exhaust position 2812 corresponds to the two clothes hangers 30, and the clothes dried on the two clothes hangers 30 are dried.

[0051] In this embodiment, the driving member 27 can adaptively adjust one of the first exhaust position 2811 or the second exhaust position 2812 to correspond to the second air outlet 213 according to the drying conditions, so as to reasonably blow and care for the clothes drying on the clothes hanger 30 structure, avoid the problem that the clothes hanger 30 without clothes hanging on it will still be subject to various care from the exhaust port 281, and can save a certain amount of electric energy.

[0052] For the care cavity 26, one of the first exhaust position 2811 or the second exhaust position 2812 can be adaptively adjusted to correspond to the first air outlet 212 according to the amount of clothes in the care cavity 26, so as to reasonably perform air blowing care on the clothes in the care cavity 26, with good adaptability. The amount of clothes here can be weight or quantity.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first exhaust position 2811, the second exhaust position 2812 and the first air outlet 212 are circular openings or long strip openings. Specifically, whether the first exhaust position 2811, the second exhaust position 2812 and the first air outlet 212 are circular openings or long strip openings, as long as they can exhaust air.

[0054] It should be explained that when the first exhaust position 2811 and the second exhaust position 2812 are circular openings, the number of the second exhaust positions 2812 is greater than the first exhaust position 2811; when the first exhaust position 2811 and the second exhaust position 2812 are long strip openings, the length of the second exhaust position 2812 is greater than the length of the first exhaust position 2811. Whether the first air outlet 212 is a circular opening or a long strip opening, as long as the wind in the air cavity 211 can pass through the exhaust port 281 and be discharged from the first air outlet 212 or the second air outlet 213, it will be fine.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first air outlet 212 includes a plurality of first air outlet positions, and the number of the first air outlet positions is greater than the number of the second air outlet positions 2812 .

[0056] In other words, the number of first air outlet positions is greater than the number of second air outlet positions 2812, so that when the driving member 27 drives the wind tube 28 to rotate, no matter the first air outlet position 2811 is aligned with the first air outlet position or the second air outlet position 2812 is aligned with the first air outlet position, the wind can be discharged completely and unobstructed from the first air outlet position.

[0057] It can be understood that the second air outlet 213 also includes a plurality of second air outlet positions, and the number of the second air outlet positions is greater than the number of the second air outlet positions 2812. The driving member 27 can adaptively adjust one of the first air outlet position 2811 or the second air outlet position 2812 to correspond to the second air outlet position according to the drying situation, so as to reasonably perform air blowing care on the clothes drying on the clothes support 30 structure.

[0058] In one embodiment, the clothes drying machine further includes a steam component (not shown in the figure), which is mounted on the mounting seat 21 and communicated with the care cavity 26. Specifically, the steam component is mounted on the mounting seat 21 and communicated with the care cavity 26, and is used to perform steam care on the clothes placed in the care cavity 26, with excellent care effect.

[0059] It should be noted that when the steam component is caring for the clothes in the care cavity 26, the driving member 27 can drive the air cylinder 28 to rotate until the exhaust port 281 corresponds to the first air outlet 212, so that the first air outlet 212 can discharge air, so that on the one hand, during the steam care stage, there will be no air leakage from the first air outlet 212; on the other hand, the first air outlet 212 can be used as a pressure relief port for the care cavity 26. The high-temperature steam generated by the steam component fills the care cavity 26 with steam. Furthermore, the material of the clothes can be determined according to user selection or automatic recognition, and then the amount of steam can be determined, where the amount of steam refers to the steam rate and the steam duration.

[0060] The driving member 27 can also drive the air cylinder 28 to rotate so that the air cylinder 28 covers the first air outlet 212, thereby preventing the steam generated by the steam component from flowing back and causing damage to components such as the heating element 23.

[0061] In some embodiments, an ultraviolet structure may be further provided in the care cavity 26 for sterilizing and caring for the clothes in the care cavity 26 .

[0062] In one embodiment, the clothes drying machine further includes a photoion component, which is mounted on the mounting seat 21 and communicated with the care cavity 26. Specifically, the photoion component is mounted on the mounting seat 21 and communicated with the care cavity 26, and the negative oxygen ions and negative ions generated are used to sterilize the clothes placed in the care cavity 26, and at the same time play a certain role in purifying the air.

[0063] Specifically, the nursing device further includes a one-way valve, which is installed in the second housing 25 and communicates with the nursing cavity 26 and the outside air respectively. It can be understood that the one-way valve is installed in the second housing 25 and communicates with the nursing cavity 26 and the outside air to avoid excessive pressure in the nursing cavity 26.

[0064] 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.

[0065] 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.
