Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of auxiliary devices for drying shoes in a washing machine, and in particular to an auxiliary device for drying shoes in a washing machine. Background Art

[0002] Shoes are difficult to dry after washing. Due to the special structure of shoes, it is difficult to dry shoes after washing. It often takes a long time to dry washed shoes. During the drying process, the shoes will change color due to exposure to the sun, or the shade will cause bacteria to grow, which will affect health. In order to speed up the drying of shoes, some people choose to use a washing machine to spin dry their shoes. However, during the drying process, the shoes will shake and collide violently in the drum of the washing machine, which will affect the drying effect of the shoes and cause damage to the shoes and the washing machine.

[0003] To this end, scheme CN216090401U discloses a shoe washing rod, which supports the support rod outwardly through a spring, and the support rod presses the shoes against the inner wall of the washing machine barrel through a fixed cross bar, so that the shoes can be washed in the washing machine like washing clothes, while preventing the shoes from shaking inside the washing machine during the centrifugal drying process, affecting the drying effect of the washing machine on the shoes and avoiding damage to the washing machine.

[0004] However, since the support rods are always controlled by spring elasticity, during the rapid rotation of the washing machine drum, the support rods are prone to disorderly buffering and expansion and contraction, and it is easy for shoes to fall off the cross bars, making the shoes more vulnerable to damage; in addition, one support rod and fixed cross bar can only support one shoe, which is insufficient. Summary of the invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary device for drying shoes in a washing machine to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention discloses an auxiliary device for drying shoes in a washing machine, comprising a vertical pipe, wherein a cross square tube frame is provided at the top and the bottom of the vertical pipe, wherein two cross square tube frames overlap each other, wherein the cross square tube frame comprises two cross-stacked square tubes, wherein two expansion arms that can extend backward are provided in the square tubes, wherein the expansion arms comprise a toothed plate at the rear, and mesh buckles are provided at both sides of the ends of the expansion arms, wherein the mesh buckles are used to buckle and pull an elastic wire net;

[0008] A rotating shaft is provided inside the riser pipe. Both ends of the rotating shaft are four-corner shafts. Two external tooth pipes are provided on the four-corner shafts, and the external tooth pipes are meshed and connected with two tooth plates inside the corresponding square pipes. A rotatable disk that can slide up and down is provided at the top of the four-corner shaft. An external tooth disk is fixedly provided at the bottom of the rotatable disk, and an internal tooth disk that fixedly surrounds the four-corner shaft is provided on the top square pipe. The internal tooth disk can be meshed with the external tooth disk.

[0009] As an improvement, the square pipe is fixedly connected to the riser pipe, and the external tooth disk is fixedly connected to the square pipe.

[0010] As an improvement, a fixed elastic cushion head is provided at the end of the extension arm, and the mesh buckle is fixedly connected to the extension arm.

[0011] As an improvement, a limiting plate is provided at the top of the four-corner shaft to limit the rotatable disk.

[0012] The advantages of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows: The extension arm can freely expand and contract to adapt to the washing machine drum and can also be fixed to prevent it from retracting. During the rapid rotation of the washing machine drum, the elastic wire mesh can always tightly hold the shoes, and the shoes can be stably dried. Moreover, one elastic wire mesh can hold multiple shoes, and the applicability is good. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] This embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the attached Figures 1 to 4 drawings to a kind of auxiliary device for drying shoes in a washing machine.

[0026] An auxiliary device for drying shoes in a washing machine according to this embodiment includes a vertical pipe 1. Cross-shaped square pipe frames are provided at both the top and bottom of the vertical pipe 1. The two cross-shaped square pipe frames overlap vertically. The cross-shaped square pipe frame includes two square pipes 2 stacked crosswise. Two expandable arms 3 that can extend backward are provided inside the square pipe 2. The expandable arm 3 includes a toothed plate 4 at the rear. Fixed net buckles 5 are provided on both sides of the end of the expandable arm 3. The net buckle 5 is used to buckle and pull an elastic wire mesh 6; the net buckle 5 has a notch for buckling and pulling the elastic wire mesh 6, and an embedded groove for the net buckle 5 is provided at the end of the square pipe 2.

[0027] A rotatable rotating shaft 7 is provided inside the vertical pipe 1. Both ends of the rotating shaft 7 are four-corner shafts. Two external toothed pipes 8 are provided on the four-corner shafts. The external toothed pipes 8 are meshed and connected with the two toothed plates 4 inside the corresponding square pipes 2; A rotatable disk 9 that can slide up and down is provided at the top of the four-corner shaft. An external toothed disk 11 is fixed at the bottom of the rotatable disk 9. An internal toothed disk 10 that fixedly surrounds the four-corner shaft is provided on the top square pipe 2. The internal toothed disk 10 can be meshed with the external toothed disk 11. The external toothed disk 11 is sleeved outside the internal toothed disk 10.

[0028] The square pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the vertical pipe 1, and the external toothed disk 11 is fixedly connected to the square pipe 2.

[0029] A fixed elastic cushion head 12, made of rubber, is provided at the end of the expandable arm 3. The net buckle 5 is fixedly connected to the expandable arm 3.

[0030] A limiting plate 13 is provided at the top of the four-corner shaft to limit the rotatable disk 9.

[0031] During specific implementation, pull up the rotatable disk 9 and then rotate it. The four upper and lower external toothed pipes 8 rotate accordingly and are meshed and driven with the toothed plates 4, so that the eight expandable arms 3 synchronously extend a part outside the outer end of the square pipe 2. Then, respectively hang the four elastic wire meshes 6 on the net buckles 5, as Figure 2 , then insert this auxiliary device into the washing machine drum, continue to rotate the rotatable disk 9 until the elastic cushion head 12 at the end of each expandable arm 3 abuts against the inner wall of the washing machine drum. Then press the rotatable disk 9 so that the external toothed disk 11 is engaged and fixed in the internal toothed disk 10. At this time, the external toothed pipes 8 are also fixed, preventing the toothed plates 4 from retracting. Finally, insert the shoes to be dried between the inner wall of the washing machine drum and the elastic wire mesh 6. The elastic wire mesh 6 can hold multiple shoes to prevent them from slipping out. Start the washing machine to dry the shoes.

[0032] The above describes the present invention and its implementation manners. This description is not restrictive, and the actual protection scope is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
