In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a towel rack, including a main body 1. The main body 1 can be a frame or box structure spliced ​​by plates and columns. The main body 1 itself can be installed on the wall of the bathroom. The main body 1 has a storage space 11 inside, and the storage space 11 can be used to hang towels.

[0034] Specifically, the disinfection structure 4 is disposed in the receiving space 11 and is suitable for disinfecting towels. In this solution, the disinfection structure 4 disposed in the receiving space 11 disinfects the towels, thereby effectively killing bacteria on the towels and ensuring that the towels are clean and hygienic.

[0035] In this embodiment, the disinfection structure 4 is a steam disinfection device. As an alternative embodiment, the disinfection structure 4 can also be an ultraviolet disinfection method.

[0036] It should be noted that the disinfection structure 4 is arranged at the bottom of the storage space 11 in this embodiment, because the disinfection structure 4 is a water vapor disinfection device in this embodiment, and the water vapor moves toward the upper part of the storage space 11 under the action of gravity, so the disinfection device is arranged at the bottom of the storage space 11. It can quickly diffuse the water vapor throughout the entire storage space 11 and improve the disinfection efficiency. As an alternative embodiment, if the disinfection efficiency is not considered, the disinfection structure 4 can also be arranged at the top or left and right sides of the storage space 11.

[0037] In this embodiment, the water vapor sterilizing device is a heating type water vapor sterilizing device. It should be noted that the heating type water vapor sterilizing device heats water by heating the internal electric heating wire, and the water is sterilized by turning into high temperature steam at high temperature. With such a configuration, the water vapor sterilizing device has the advantages of fast sterilization speed, more uniform sterilization, and no drug residue after sterilization.

[0038] As an alternative embodiment, the disinfection structure 4 is an ultrasonic steam disinfection device, which uses ultrasound to quickly break up water molecules so that the disinfection steam fills the entire containing space 11. The ultrasonic method has a faster start-up speed than the heating method and is more expensive. It can be selected according to actual needs.

[0039] It should be noted that gold water, silver ions, and nano water ions can be added to the disinfection structure 4 to further increase the disinfection effect. Or to further increase the versatility of the device, aromatherapy water can be added to the disinfection structure 4 to achieve sterilization and deodorization at the same time. When deodorizing the towel, the bathroom can also be deodorized simultaneously.

[0040] Specifically, for the heating structure 2, the heating structure 2 is arranged in the accommodating space 11, and the heating structure 2 is suitable for blowing hot air toward the towel. This solution quickly dries the towel by blowing hot air to the towel through the heating structure 2. The use of the heating structure 2 has the advantages of fast drying and good drying effect.

[0041] It should be noted that the heating structure 2 is disposed at the bottom of the accommodating space 11 . As an alternative implementation, the heating structure 2 may also be disposed at the top or on the left and right sides of the accommodating space 11 .

[0042] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the heating structure 2 includes a hot air module 21 and an air duct module 22, wherein the air duct module 22 is arranged at the bottom of the accommodating space 11, and the hot air module 21 is arranged on one side of the air duct module 22; the hot air module 21 is connected to the inside of the air duct module 22, and the hot air module 21 blows hot air toward the inside of the air duct module 22, and an air outlet 221 is provided on the side of the air duct module 22 close to the towel, and in this embodiment, the air outlet 221 is provided on the top of the air duct module 22. It should be noted that in order to ensure the air outlet effect of the air outlet module, in this embodiment, the air outlet 221 is divided into several; each air outlet 221 is separated by a partition, and such a design makes the hot air blown out from the air outlet 221 more uniform and gentle.

[0043] Among them, the hot air module 21 includes a fan 211 and a heating element 212, the fan 211 blows toward the air duct module 22, the heating element 212 is arranged between the fan 211 and the air duct module 22, and the heating element 212 is suitable for heating the air flowing through the surface of the heating element 212. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the fan 211 uses an axial flow type, the axial flow fan 211 has the advantage of small size, and the axial flow fan 211 can increase the overall aesthetics. As an alternative embodiment, the fan 211 can also be a centrifugal fan 211, a cross-flow fan 211, and a multi-fan 211 series-parallel design. It should be noted that the heating element 212 is a PTC thermistor in this embodiment, and the PTC thermistor has the advantages of good stability and strong overload capacity. The airflow passes through the internal pores of the heating element 212 and takes away the heat generated by the heating element 212, thereby achieving the heating effect on the airflow. As an alternative embodiment, it can also be an electric heating wire.

[0044] It should be noted that the air duct module 22 is rotatably arranged in the accommodating space 11 in this embodiment, and the air outlet 221 on the air duct structure also rotates with the air duct module 22, so that the air outlet direction changes. The air outlet 221 can be turned to the side of the bathroom according to actual needs. When the air outlet 221 faces the personnel and blows hot air towards the personnel, it can replace the bathroom heater. Or the air outlet 221 can be turned to the ground to quickly dry the floor of the bathroom. Considering the factor of saving budget, the air duct module 22 can also be designed to be non-rotatable.

[0045] It should be noted that in order to further increase the overall versatility, an aromatherapy module can be added at the air outlet 221 to achieve the deodorization function, or modules such as gold water nourishment, silver ions, and nano water ions can be added to achieve the deodorization, sterilization and disinfection functions.

[0046] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, it should be noted that the main body 1 is fixedly mounted on the wall, and can be bonded or nailed. The opening 12 of the accommodating space 11 is arranged on the side away from the wall. In this embodiment, the shape of the main body 1 is square. As a replaceable embodiment, the shape of the main body 1 can be customized according to the actual installation position. Specifically, for the rolling door structure 3, the rolling door structure 3 is arranged on one side of the accommodating space 11; the rolling door structure 3 includes a door frame 31 and a door curtain 32, the door frame 31 is fixedly arranged on one side of the accommodating space 11, and the door curtain 32 includes an open state and a closed state. When the door curtain 32 is stationary, it is completely located in the door frame 31, and the door curtain 32 is in an open state; under the action of external force, the door curtain 32 partially extends out of the door frame 31 and blocks the opening 12, and the door curtain 32 is in a closed state.

[0047] Among them, the end of the part of the door curtain 32 extending out of the door frame 31 is provided with a self-locking structure. When the door curtain 32 is in a closed state, the self-locking structure is connected to the main body 1. The door curtain 32 extends out of the door frame 31 when subjected to an external force. When the door curtain 32 completely blocks the opening 12, the self-locking structure at the end of the door curtain 32 is connected to the main body 1. When the external force is removed, the door curtain 32 can remain in a closed state. In this embodiment, the external force is manpower, and the door curtain 32 is manually pulled to close the door curtain 32. As an alternative embodiment, the door curtain 32 can be connected to a drive motor, and the movement of the door curtain 32 can be driven by the drive motor. Such a configuration can ensure the stability of the door curtain 32 when it is in a closed state.

[0048] In this embodiment, the self-locking structure is a magnetic material, which has the advantages of being easy to use and having a strong repeatability. As an alternative embodiment, the self-locking structure can also be a viscous material, or connected to the main body 1 by a hook.

[0049] In this embodiment, the rolling door is made of cloth, which has good air permeability and certain flexibility and can be stored in the door frame 31. As an alternative embodiment, the rolling door can be made of a variety of materials, such as plastic or bamboo curtains.

[0050] It should be noted that, in order to improve the drying effect, the drying can be performed when the door curtain 32 is in a closed state. Similarly, in order to improve the disinfection effect, the disinfection can also be performed when the door curtain 32 is in a closed state. In a confined space, the disinfection and drying effects of the towels can be greatly improved. If the disinfection and drying effects are not considered, the door curtain 32 can also be left open, and the drying and disinfection of the towels can also be achieved.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the towel rack also includes a drying rack 6, a limiting member 5 is arranged in the accommodating space 11 of the main body 1, and the limiting member 5 has an inclined surface arranged at an angle to the vertical direction; the drying rack 6 is rotatably arranged in the accommodating space 11, the drying rack 6 is flipped upward to a horizontally unfolded state, and the drying rack 6 is flipped downward to a folded state. When the drying rack 6 is in the folded state, the bottom of the drying rack 6 contacts the inclined surface of the limiting member 5.

[0052] When in use, the drying rack 6 is flipped upward to a horizontally unfolded state, and towels are hung on the drying rack 6. The drying rack 6 is flipped downward to a folded state, and the bottom of the drying rack 6 contacts the inclined surface of the stopper 5, so that the folded drying rack 6 is tilted at an angle to the vertical direction, thereby preventing the towels from being stacked due to being attached to each other, and leaving gaps between the towels, which is conducive to ventilation and drying, and solves the problem of the foldable towel rack in the prior art causing the towels to be attached to each other after being folded. Moreover, the folding design of the drying rack 6 can reduce the space volume when not in use, thereby increasing practicality.

[0053] The angle between the inclined surface of the stopper 5 and the vertical direction is greater than 5° and less than 90°, which can keep a certain angle between the drying rack 6 and the vertical direction after folding, and prevent the towels on the drying rack 6 from sticking. Specifically, the inclination angle of the inclined surface of the stopper 5 can be set according to actual needs.

[0054] The limiting member 5 can extend from one side of the accommodation space 11 to the other side, and the limiting member 5 has a plurality of parallel and spaced arrangements. Such an arrangement can fix both ends of the limiting member 5, evenly bear the force, and can support the main body 1. A plurality of limiting members 5 are spaced apart, and a plurality of drying racks 6 can be installed as needed. In addition, as an alternative embodiment, the limiting member 5 can also be a limiting protrusion arranged at least on one side of the accommodation space 11.

[0055] Among them, a plurality of hooks 7 are slidably arranged at the bottom of the limiter 5. The hooks 7 at the bottom of the limiter 5 can be used to hang towels or other supplies, increase the capacity, and meet daily needs. The sliding arrangement of the hooks 7 can be conveniently adjusted according to needs. In addition, as an alternative embodiment, the hooks 7 can be fixedly arranged at the bottom of the limiter 5; the hooks 7 can also be omitted, and other storage spaces such as storage platforms can be arranged above the limiter 5.

[0056] Wherein, the bottom of the position-limiting member 5 is provided with a slide rail, and the hook 7 is provided with a slider, and the slider and the slide rail are slidably matched. The hook 7 is moved left and right on the position-limiting member 5 by the sliding of the slider on the slide rail.

[0057] The position-limiting member 5 is provided with a mounting seat 8, and the fixed end of the drying rack 6 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 8. The drying rack 6 is rotatably mounted on the main body 1 through the mounting seat 8 on the position-limiting member 5, so that the drying rack 6 can be easily unfolded or folded. In addition, as an alternative embodiment, the mounting seat 8 can be omitted, and the drying rack 6 is directly rotatably mounted on the main body 1.

[0058] The drying rack 6 is hingedly connected to the mounting seat 8. The drying rack 6 can be rotatably connected to the mounting seat 8 through the hinged connection.

[0059] Among them, a plurality of drying rods 9 are arranged on the drying rack 6. The plurality of drying rods 9 on the drying rack 6 can hang towels in parallel. In addition, as an alternative embodiment, the drying rod 9 can also be omitted, or one can be arranged as needed.

[0060] In summary, the towel rack provided in the present application is provided with a disinfection structure 4 and a heating structure 2 in the accommodating space 11 of the main body 1, which can not only dry the towels in the towel accommodating space 11, but also sterilize and disinfect the towels, thereby realizing multiple uses of one machine, which is beneficial to saving costs and saving scene space; moreover, the rolling door structure 3 can be used to generate a mostly closed space, which can improve the effects of drying, clothing care, deodorization, sterilization and disinfection and other functions; moreover, the rolling door structure 3 will not take up extra space in the bathroom, which can increase the use space of the bathroom and make it more convenient to use.

[0061] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods.
