Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of towel drying technology, and more particularly to a hot air towel drying rack. Background Technology

[0002] A towel is a soft fabric made from textile fibers (mainly cotton fibers). It is characterized by its porous structure, high absorbency, and good conformability, and is widely used in personal hygiene, home care, and food hygiene. In daily life, towels are mainly used to wipe the face, body, tableware, or surface moisture. Their fiber structure allows for rapid absorption and retention of moisture, thus achieving quick drying and cleaning of the skin or objects. However, this very high absorbency means that towels retain a lot of moisture after use. If not dried promptly, this can lead to a series of hygiene and usage problems. After use, the fibers and surface of towels accumulate sebum, sweat, dead skin cells, and environmental dust. When towels remain damp for extended periods, especially in poorly ventilated, high-humidity bathrooms, bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms multiply rapidly. Studies have shown that the number of bacteria on damp towels can increase exponentially within hours. Common bacteria include Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans, which can cause skin itching, acne, eye infections, and even respiratory illnesses. Furthermore, mold growth in damp environments produces unpleasant odors, making towels smell musty and affecting the user experience. At the same time, prolonged dampness accelerates fiber aging, hardening, and yellowing, reducing absorbency and significantly shortening the towel's lifespan, increasing replacement frequency and living costs. Therefore, towels must be dried as soon as possible after use to inhibit microbial growth, maintain hygiene, and extend their lifespan.

[0003] Existing methods for drying towels mainly involve sun drying and electric heating. These methods are inefficient and ineffective. Sun drying is highly dependent on weather and location, and towels are difficult to dry effectively on rainy days or in high-humidity environments. Electric heating, on the other hand, suffers from low heat transfer efficiency due to direct contact between the heating element and the towel, resulting in slow drying speed, high energy consumption, and uneven temperature. To improve the efficiency and effectiveness of towel drying, a hot air towel drying rack is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0030] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] A hot air towel drying rack, such as Figure 1-8As shown, the device includes a hot air drying assembly, which includes a fixed frame 1. Two sets of fixed frames 1 are arranged in parallel. Several sets of reinforcing rods 3 are arranged sequentially between the two sets of fixed frames 1. A first support frame 2 is provided on one side of the fixed frame 1. Several sets of placement rods 5 are arranged sequentially on one side of the first support frame 2. The placement rods 5 are arranged in parallel and have an elliptical arc surface at the top. Several sets of second support frames 6 are arranged sequentially on one side of the fixed frame 1. Several sets of drying pipes 7 are arranged in parallel on one side of the second support frame 6. Several sets of air outlets are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drying pipes 7. One end of the drying pipe 7 is connected to a control valve 12. One end of the control valve 12 is connected to a connecting pipe 21. A heating fan 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame 1. Several sets of quick connectors are arranged sequentially at the bottom of the heating fan 22. An air direction adjustment component for adjusting the air direction is provided on one side of the drying pipe 7. A fixing component for installation and fixing is provided on one side of the fixed frame 1.

[0033] In use, the fixing bracket 1 can be fixed to the wall using the fixing components. After fixing, the used damp towels can be hung on the placement rods 5. Multiple towels can be placed simultaneously using several sets of placement rods 5. After the towels are hung on the placement rods 5, their ends will hang down naturally from both ends of the placement rods 5. The position of the drying tube 7 is adapted to the direction of the towel hanging down, and its position is in the middle of the towel. Several sets of air outlets on both sides are set towards the two ends of the towel hanging down. The pipe can be connected through the quick connector at the bottom of the heating fan 22. After the connection is completed, the other end of the pipe can be connected to the connecting pipe 21. The drying tube 7 is hollow and is horizontally set on the second support frame 6. After being connected to the heating fan 22 through the pipe, the heating fan 22 can deliver hot air to the drying tube 7. The hot air can be blown out through the air outlets on both sides to dry the towel. The hot air blowing method can dry the towel thoroughly and completely. The drying is fast and can effectively improve the efficiency of heat conduction, while ensuring uniform temperature. This system allows hot air to directly and comprehensively act on the towels, thus drying them quickly. This solves the problem of the poor efficiency and effectiveness of natural sun drying, which is heavily dependent on weather and location. It also solves the problem of low heat transfer efficiency when the heating element of an electric dryer is in direct contact with the towel. This effectively improves the drying speed, greatly reduces energy consumption, and avoids uneven temperature during drying. The oval-shaped placement rod 5 allows the ends of the towel to hang naturally, making it easy to dry. The hot air flow can be controlled by automatically opening and closing the control valve 12. A manual control handle is connected to one side of the control valve 12 for manual control in case of malfunction. It can control the activation and deactivation of several sets of drying tubes 7 according to the length of the towel, avoiding unnecessary waste of hot air. Each set of drying tubes 7 is equipped with a temperature sensor, which can be linked with the control valve 12 and the heating fan 22. When the temperature exceeds the limit, the control valve 12 can automatically close or the heating fan 22 can automatically reduce the outlet air temperature, preventing unnecessary energy consumption.

[0034] The airflow adjustment component includes an air guide hood 8, which is provided in several groups and is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drying tube 7.

An adjustment frame 9 is provided on the fixed shaft 28. The size of the adjustment frame 9 is adapted to the air guide hood 8. Several groups of guide grooves are arranged sequentially on the surface of the adjustment frame 9.

[0035] When in use, hot air is blown through the air outlet of the drying pipe 7 and can pass through the air guide shroud 8. The fixed shaft 28 and the adjusting frame 9 can be rotated by starting the drive motor 27. The angle of the adjusting frame 9 can be adjusted by rotating it, so that the direction of the hot air can be easily adjusted when it passes through. The direction of the hot air can be guided so that the hot air is blown out along the angle of the adjusting frame 9. The direction can be easily adjusted as needed, so that the hot air can fully and evenly contact different parts of the towel. This can avoid dead corners during drying and affect the drying effect. The guide groove on the adjusting frame 9 can guide the hot air, so that the hot air is blown in a direction towards the towel.

[0036] The fixing component includes a mounting base 17, and several sets of mounting bases 17 are arranged in sequence. An adjusting bracket 15 is slidably provided at one end of the mounting base 17. One end of the adjusting bracket 15 is fixed to the fixing frame 1.

The size and position of the guide blocks 30 are adapted to the guide grooves 29.

[0041] In use, guide grooves 29 are respectively opened on the top and bottom of the adjusting bracket 15, and guide blocks 30 are also symmetrically arranged on the top and bottom inner walls of the mounting base 17. When controlling the sliding of the adjusting bracket 15, the sliding of the guide grooves 29 in contact with the guide blocks 30 can play an effective guiding role, which can avoid accidental deviation during movement.

[0042] To prevent the towel from slipping, such as Figure 3 As shown, the surface of the placement rod 5 is provided with several sets of rubber anti-slip strips 4, and the several sets of rubber anti-slip strips 4 are arranged in a circle.

[0043] When in use, the friction between the towel and the several sets of rubber anti-slip strips 4 arranged in a circle on the surface of the placement rod 5 can be increased, thereby achieving an effective anti-slip effect and preventing the towel from accidentally slipping off the placement rod 5 after placement, thus avoiding affecting the normal drying of the towel.

[0044] For ease of control, such as Figure 4 As shown, a control panel 26 is provided on one side of the mounting bracket 1, and a protective film is affixed to the surface of the control panel 26;

[0045] In use, the control panel 26 is connected to each component via wires. The start, stop and power of each component can be conveniently controlled through the control panel 26. Necessary parameters such as the running time, hot air outlet temperature and air volume of the heating fan 22 can be set.

[0046] To prevent moisture and water from entering the control panel 26, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, a protective box 19 is provided on one side of the fixed frame 1. The size and position of the protective box 19 are adapted to the control panel 26. A protective cover 25 is rotatably installed on one side of the protective box 19. A connecting bracket 23 is provided on the top of the protective box 19. A positioning bracket 24 is rotatably installed on one end of the connecting bracket 23. The size and position of the positioning bracket 24 are adapted to the protective cover 25.

[0047] During use, the positioning frame 24 and the connecting bracket 23 are equipped with damping to prevent unnecessary rotation when not manually operated. The protective cover 25 can be rotated to control the opening and closing of the protective box 19. When the control panel 26 needs to be operated, the protective box 19 can be opened. When it is not needed, the protective cover 25 can be rotated to close the protective box 19. After closing, it can provide effective protection for the internal control panel 26 and prevent it from being damaged by moisture or water. After the protective cover 25 is closed, the positioning frame 24 can be manually rotated to lock the protective cover 25 and limit and fix it, which can prevent the protective cover 25 from being opened accidentally and affecting the protective effect.

[0048] To collect the water dripping from a wet towel, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a fixed base 13 is provided on one side of the fixed frame 1, and a connecting frame 14 is slidably provided through the fixed base 13. A water receiving box 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting frame 14.

[0049] When in use, the connecting bracket 14 on one side of the water receiving box 11 can be aligned with the slot of the fixing seat 13 and inserted. The water receiving box 11 can be fixed by the fixing seat 13 to prevent it from falling accidentally. After the water receiving box 11 is installed, it is located below the drying tube 7. After the wet towel is hung on the placement rod 5, the water will drip down the towel and fall to the ground, affecting hygiene. The water receiving box 11 at its bottom can effectively collect the dripping water, avoiding affecting hygiene and allowing the collected water to be reused, which can improve the utilization rate of water resources.
