Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drying equipment technology, and more particularly to a drying apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Firefighters' fire suits are high-performance garments with a multi-layered structure. The middle layer is made of a one-way breathable material. Therefore, after washing, fire suits are slow to air dry or to be dried at room temperature using equipment. Wearing insufficiently dried clothing severely affects comfort and increases the physiological burden during rescue operations. Traditional drying devices do not take into account the fabric and multi-layered structure of fire suits. Repeated drying processes can easily aggravate wear and aging of the fabric, affecting the lifespan of the fire suits. To improve the drying efficiency of fire suits, drying devices specifically designed for fire suits have appeared on the market, such as a drying device with publication number CN223189464U. This patent discloses a cabinet and a movable clothes rack. The cabinet's structure distributes hot air. Some of the hot air enters the internal pipes of the clothes rack and flows to various parts of the fire suit, drying the inside. The other part of the hot air flows out through the bottom of the cabinet's inner cavity, drying the outside of the fire suit.

[0003] However, the drying device places the air outlet at the bottom of the cabinet's internal cavity. This causes both streams of hot air to first pass through the lower half of the fire suit during their ascent, only reaching the upper half after the heat has dissipated, before being reheated and entering the circulation again. This hot air path design results in uneven distribution of hot air across the fire suit, thus affecting the overall drying efficiency and effect. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a drying device to solve the problem in the prior art where the hot air is unevenly distributed in the longitudinal direction of the clothing, resulting in uneven distribution of hot air to the fire suit as a whole, thereby affecting the overall drying efficiency and drying effect of the fire suit.

[0005] To achieve one, some, or all of the above objectives, or other objectives, the present invention provides a drying device, comprising a cabinet, a hot air assembly, an air-filling assembly, and a control assembly. The cabinet has a drying chamber opening to one side, and a door at the opening of the drying chamber. The cabinet also has a ventilation port connecting to the drying chamber. A vertical guide plate is installed inside the drying chamber, dividing it into a downward-opening heating chamber. A horizontal baffle is installed inside the drying chamber, located below the opening of the heating chamber and spaced apart from both the opening and the bottom wall of the drying chamber. The hot air assembly is located inside the heating chamber and is used to draw air from the drying chamber and heat it. The heated air is then blown downwards from the opening of the heating chamber, causing the hot air to impact the baffle and bend upwards back into the drying chamber. The air-filling assembly is located below the baffle and is used to draw a portion of the hot air flowing out of the heating chamber opening and discharge it into the internal pipes of a movable clothes hanger. The control assembly is electrically connected to the hot air assembly and the air-filling assembly.

[0006] Preferably, the hot air assembly includes an upper fan and a heating element, the upper half of the guide plate has an upper air inlet, the air inlet end of the upper fan is connected to the upper air inlet, the heating element is located below the upper fan, and both the heating element and the upper fan are electrically connected to the control assembly.

[0007] Preferably, the drying device further includes a temperature and humidity sensor, which is disposed on the inner wall of the heating chamber and located below the hot air assembly, and the temperature and humidity sensor is electrically connected to the control assembly.

[0008] Preferably, the lower end of the guide plate is bent toward the drying chamber to form a water guide edge.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the spoiler is bent downward to form a mounting plate parallel to the guide plate. The mounting plate has a lower air inlet and a lower air outlet sequentially opened from top to bottom in the vertical direction. The air filling assembly includes a lower fan. The lower fan is installed on the side wall of the mounting plate opposite to the drying chamber. The air inlet end of the lower fan is connected to the lower air inlet, and the air outlet end of the lower fan is connected to the lower air outlet.

[0010] Preferably, both the upper and lower fans are centrifugal fans, and the air outlet of the lower fan is connected to the lower air outlet through a bend.

[0011] Preferably, the upper air inlet is provided in multiple ways and is evenly distributed on the guide plate in the horizontal direction; the upper fan is provided in multiple ways and is set one-to-one with the upper air inlet; the lower air inlet and lower air outlet are both provided in multiple ways and are evenly distributed on the mounting plate in the horizontal direction; the lower fan is provided in multiple ways and is set one-to-one with the lower air inlet.

[0012] Preferably, the drying device further includes a movable clothes rack, which includes a base and a clothes rack assembly mounted on the base. Rollers are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base. The clothes rack assembly includes a base, a support tube, a drying tube, and two sleeves. The base is a hollow, elongated structure arranged along the width of the base. An air inlet is provided at the end of the base, connecting to its inner cavity. The support tube and sleeves are both vertically positioned at the top of the base, and their bottom ends communicate with the inner cavity of the base. The drying tube is positioned at the top of the support tube and communicates with it. The axis of the drying tube intersects with the axis of the support tube. The drying tube is used to hang sleeves. The two sleeves are adjacent to the support tube and are used to attach trouser legs. Multiple air holes are distributed on the support tube, drying tube, and sleeves. The movable clothes rack can be moved into the drying chamber via the rollers, bringing the air inlet closer to and aligning with the lower air outlet.

[0013] Preferably, the inner diameter of the base gradually decreases from the end where the air inlet is located towards the other end.

[0014] Preferably, the hanger assembly is provided in multiple parts and is evenly distributed along the length of the base.

[0015] Implementing the embodiments of the present invention will have the following beneficial effects: With the aforementioned drying device, during operation, the hot air assembly actively draws air from the upper part of the drying chamber, rapidly heats it using internal heating elements, and then blows the resulting hot air downwards at high speed from the opening of the heating chamber. This downward-spraying hot air first impacts the baffle plate, forcibly changing its kinetic energy and direction, thus diffusing upwards and outwards to form a more complex and uniform turbulent hot air field covering most of the drying chamber, drying the surface of the fire suits placed inside the drying chamber from all directions. The remaining hot air flowing out of the heating chamber opening, which has not yet impacted the baffle plate, is drawn in by the air intake assembly and transported to the movable hangers set up inside the drying chamber to dry the inside of the fire suits. This changes the path of the hot air, which simply rises from the bottom and flows upwards through the clothing. During the diversion and ascent, the hot air can simultaneously and evenly cover the entire length of the suspended fire suit, from the shoulders and chest of the upper body to the trouser legs of the lower body, all receiving a relatively consistent hot air effect in terms of temperature and flow rate, thus effectively solving the problem of uneven longitudinal drying of fire suits.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein in the specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and foregoing drawings are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings are used to distinguish different objects and not to describe a particular order.

[0020] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a drying device includes a cabinet 1, a hot air assembly, an air injection assembly, and a control assembly. The cabinet 1 has a drying chamber 11 opening to one side. The cabinet 1 has a door 12 at the opening of the drying chamber 11 for covering the opening. The cabinet 1 has an air vent 13 connecting to the drying chamber 11. A guide plate 21 is vertically arranged inside the drying chamber 11, dividing it into a downward-opening heating chamber 14. A baffle plate 31 is horizontally arranged inside the drying chamber 11, located below the opening of the heating chamber 14 and spaced apart from both the opening of the heating chamber 14 and the bottom wall of the drying chamber 11. The hot air assembly is... Inside the heating chamber 14, air is drawn from and heated within the drying chamber 11. The heated air is then blown downwards from the opening of the heating chamber 14, causing the hot air to collide with the baffle 31 and bend upwards back into the drying chamber 11. An air-filling assembly is located below the baffle 31, drawing in some of the hot air flowing out of the heating chamber 14 and discharging it into the internal duct of the movable clothes hanger. The control assembly is electrically connected to the hot air assembly and the air-filling assembly. During operation, the hot air assembly actively draws in air from the upper part of the drying chamber 11, rapidly heats it using internal heating elements, and then blows the resulting hot air downwards at high speed from the opening of the heating chamber 14. This downward-spraying hot air first impacts the baffle 31, forcibly changing its kinetic energy and direction, causing it to bend upwards and outwards, forming a more complex and uniform turbulent hot air field covering most of the drying chamber 11, thus drying the surface of the fire-fighting suit placed inside the drying chamber 11 from all directions. The remaining hot air flowing out of the opening of the heating chamber 14, which has not yet hit the baffle 31, is drawn in by the air-filling assembly and transported to the movable clothes hanger installed in the drying chamber 11 to dry the inside of the fire suit. This changes the path of the hot air, which simply rises from the bottom and flows through the clothes from bottom to top. During the process of rising back up, the hot air can simultaneously and evenly wrap around the entire length of the suspended fire suit. From the shoulders and chest of the upper body to the trouser legs of the lower body, the hot air can obtain a relatively consistent hot air effect in terms of temperature and flow rate, thus effectively solving the problem of uneven drying of the fire suit in the longitudinal direction.

[0023] Specifically, the distance between the baffle 31 and the bottom wall of the drying chamber 11 is 20-40cm to ensure that the high-speed hot air blown downward from the opening of the heating chamber 14 by the hot air assembly can be fully deflected and diffused after impacting the baffle 31. The deflected hot air can be evenly diffused upward to the upper part of the drying chamber 11, and at the same time penetrate downward to the area between the baffle 31 and the bottom wall of the drying chamber 11, so as to achieve all-round wrapping of the suspended fire suit from the shoulders to the trouser legs. The ventilation port 13 is opened at the top of the cabinet 1, and the ventilation fan 15 is installed at the ventilation port 13. The ventilation fan 15 is electrically connected to the control component. The bottom of the drying chamber 11 is designed with an opening. When the ventilation fan 15 exhausts the humid air in the drying chamber 11 during the drying process, the fresh air from the outside will enter the drying chamber 11 through the bottom opening of the drying chamber 11 to maintain a suitable air circulation and humidity balance in the drying chamber 11.

[0024] In one embodiment, the hot air assembly includes an upper fan 24 and a heating element 25. The upper part of the guide plate 21 is provided with an upper air inlet 22. The air inlet end of the upper fan 24 is connected to the upper air inlet 22. The heating element 25 is located below the upper fan 24. Both the heating element 25 and the upper fan 24 are electrically connected to the control assembly.

[0025] In one embodiment, the drying device further includes a temperature and humidity sensor 26, which is disposed on the inner wall of the heating chamber 14 and located below the hot air assembly. The temperature and humidity sensor 26 is electrically connected to the control assembly.

[0026] Specifically, a control box 16 is provided on the top of the cabinet 1. The ventilation port 13 is connected to the outside through the control box 16 via an air pipe. The control components are set inside the control box 16. The control components include a PLC controller 41, a relay 42, a power supply 43, and an air switch 44. The power supply 43 and the air switch 44 constitute the power supply basis of the entire device. After the external power supply 43 is adapted, the air switch 44 realizes the branch power supply to the PLC controller 41 and the relay 42, which not only ensures the stable power supply of the core control components, but also avoids the power supply risk through the protection function of the air switch 44. When the temperature and humidity sensor 26 detects that the temperature inside the chamber is lower than the preset drying temperature, the PLC controller 41 immediately outputs a command to control the relay 42 to engage, connecting the power supply circuit of the heating element 25. The heating element 25 starts heating, and at the same time, it controls the upper fan 24 to operate, drawing air from the upper part of the drying chamber 11 to the heating chamber 14. After being heated by the heating element 25, the air is blown downwards at high speed, forming a basic hot air circulation. The speed of the lower fan 35 is adjusted to drive the air intake assembly to efficiently draw hot air and deliver it to the movable clothes hanger, simultaneously drying the inside and outside of the fire suit. If the temperature and humidity sensor 26 detects that the humidity inside the chamber is too high, the PLC promptly controls the ventilation fan 15 to start, expelling the humid air. At this time, fresh air from the outside enters through the bottom opening of the drying chamber 11 to maintain the humidity balance inside the chamber. When the temperature reaches the preset value or the humidity drops to a reasonable level, the drying process continues. When the drying process is within the specified range, the PLC outputs instructions to control the relay 42 to disconnect, adjust the speed of the fan and ventilation fan 15, or stop the machine, ensuring that the drying process is efficient and uniform. A touch screen 45 and an emergency stop switch 46 are also installed on the top side wall of the cabinet 1. The touch screen 45 communicates bidirectionally with the PLC controller 41, allowing the input of drying parameters and feedback of the real-time operating status of the equipment, facilitating operation and monitoring. The emergency stop switch 46 is connected in series in the power supply circuit, with one end connected to the output of the air switch 44 and the other end connected to the PLC controller 41 and various core electrical components. In an emergency, it can forcibly cut off the power supply 43 and control instructions for quick safety. The three components work together with the aforementioned components. In addition, a cooling fan is embedded in the side wall of the control box 16 to facilitate ventilation inside the control box 16 and help dissipate heat from the components.

[0027] In one embodiment, heat insulation plates 27 are laid on both inner walls of the heating chamber 14 parallel to the heating tube. These heat insulation plates 27 are preferably made of high-temperature resistant, heat-insulating ceramic fiber board or rock wool composite board, and are fixedly installed against the inner wall of the heating chamber 14, covering the entire side wall area corresponding to the height of the heating tube. One function is to reduce heat loss during the operation of the heating tube 25, concentrating the heat within the heating chamber 14, ensuring that the air drawn by the upper fan 24 is quickly heated to the preset temperature, improving hot air heating efficiency while reducing energy consumption. Another function is to prevent heat from being conducted to the outside of the cabinet 1 through the side walls of the heating chamber 14, avoiding burns to operators when touching the top and sides of the cabinet 1, further improving the safety of equipment operation.

[0028] In one embodiment, the lower end of the deflector plate 21 is bent toward the drying chamber 11 to form a water guide edge 23. During the drying process, the water vapor that is released is easily condensed into condensate on the outer surface of the deflector plate 21, and some water droplets will also drip from the cuffs of the fire suit. The water guide edge 23 can cover the deflector plate 31 in the vertical direction to prevent water droplets from dripping directly onto the deflector plate 31, and prevent water droplets from splashing onto the lower fan 35 through the lower air inlet 33 due to the impact of hot air, so as to avoid the lower fan 35 from short circuits or malfunctions due to water ingress, and ensure the stable operation of the air intake assembly.

[0029] In one embodiment, one end of the baffle 31 is bent downward to form a mounting plate 32 parallel to the guide plate 21. The mounting plate 32 has a lower air inlet 33 and a lower air outlet 34 arranged vertically from top to bottom. The air filling assembly includes a lower fan 35, which is disposed on the side wall of the mounting plate 32 opposite to the drying chamber 11 (i.e., located in the interlayer formed by the mounting plate 32 and the side wall of the cabinet 1). The air inlet end of the lower fan 35 is connected to the lower air inlet 33 to extract part of the hot air blown out from the heating chamber 14. The air outlet end of the lower fan 35 is connected to the lower air outlet 34 to blow the pressurized hot air horizontally into the interior of the drying chamber 11 or into the internal pipe of the movable clothes hanger.

[0030] Furthermore, both the upper fan 24 and the lower fan 35 are centrifugal fans to obtain greater and more stable air pressure, increase the flow rate of hot air, and improve the drying efficiency of fire suits. The air outlet of the lower fan 35 is connected to the lower air outlet 34 through the bend 36. The bend 36 design can more smoothly change the airflow direction and reduce pressure loss.

[0031] Furthermore, multiple upper air inlets 22 are provided and evenly distributed on the guide plate 21 in the horizontal direction. Multiple upper fans 24 are provided and are set one-to-one with the upper air inlets 22. Multiple lower air inlets 33 and multiple lower air outlets 34 are provided and evenly distributed on the mounting plate 32 in the horizontal direction. Multiple lower fans 35 are provided and are set one-to-one with the lower air inlets 33. This arrangement ensures that the hot air blown out from the heating chamber 14 and the airflow blown out from the air filling assembly are evenly distributed in the width direction of the drying chamber 11 and the movable clothes hanger, avoiding local over-drying or drying dead corners caused by single-point air supply, and further improving the overall drying uniformity and drying efficiency.

[0032] In one embodiment, the drying device further includes a movable clothes rack, which includes a base 51 and a clothes rack assembly disposed on the base 51. Rollers 52 are provided at each of the four corners of the bottom of the base 51. The clothes rack assembly includes a base 53, a support tube 54, a drying tube 55, and two sleeves 56. The base 53 is a hollow, elongated structure arranged along the width direction of the base 51. An air inlet 531 connecting to the inner cavity of the base 53 is provided at the end of the base 53. The support tube 54 and the sleeves 56 are both vertically disposed at the top of the base 53, and their bottom ends communicate with the inner cavity of the base 53. The drying tube 55 is disposed at the top of the support tube 54 and communicates with it. The axis of the drying tube 55 intersects the axis of the support tube 54 and is used to hang sleeves. The two sleeves 56 are adjacent to the support tube 54 and are used to attach trouser legs. Multiple air holes a are distributed on the support tube 54, the drying tube 55, and the sleeves 56. The roller 52 can be moved into the drying chamber 11, aligning the air inlet 531 and connecting it to the lower air outlet 34. The hot air drawn by the lower fan 35 can be directly introduced into the base 53 through the lower air outlet 34. After pressure equalization, it is simultaneously delivered to the support pipe 54, the drying pipe 55, and the two sleeves 56. The hot air is then sprayed out from the air hole a on the wall of the support pipe 54, directly acting on the inside of the fire suit torso. It is also sprayed out from the air hole a of the drying pipe 55 and blown into the inside of the sleeves, and sprayed out from the air hole a of the sleeve 56 and blown into the inside of the trouser legs. This achieves comprehensive and synchronous air inlet to all internal cavities of the fire suit. This internal directional drying, combined with the uniform three-dimensional turbulent hot air field covering the outer surface of the clothing constructed by the guide plate 21 and the baffle plate 31, forms a highly efficient drying system that is "synchronous inside and outside and uniform from top to bottom". This fundamentally solves the problems of "dry outside and wet inside" and uneven longitudinal drying caused by the heavy structure and complex layers of the fire suit.

[0033] In one embodiment, a trouser drying rod 57 is vertically sleeved on the upper half of the support tube 54 to hang trousers that are separate from the clothes.

[0034] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the base 53 gradually narrows from the end with the air inlet 531 towards the other end. When hot air enters the inner cavity of the base 53, it needs to supply air to multiple outlet branches, including the support pipe 54, the clothes drying pipe 55, and the two sleeves 56. The conical inner cavity can dynamically compensate for the pressure loss caused by the increased flow distance, ensuring that the airflow and pressure obtained by the branch closest to the air inlet 531 (such as the first sleeve 56) and the farthest branch (such as the end of the clothes drying pipe 55 and the corresponding part of the support pipe 54) are more balanced. This ensures that the torso, sleeves, and legs of the same fire suit can obtain a relatively uniform air inlet intensity, achieving uniform drying of the fire suit.

[0035] Furthermore, multiple hanger assemblies are provided and evenly distributed along the length of the base 51. The air inlets 531 of all hanger assemblies are in a straight line and correspond one-to-one with the multiple horizontally evenly distributed lower air outlets 34 on the cabinet 1. The uniform airflow generated by the air inlet assemblies can simultaneously and in parallel enter the internal pipes of all hanger assemblies. This allows multiple sets of fire suits to simultaneously undergo "external drying and internal inlet filling" treatment with the same efficiency within one drying cycle, significantly improving the single-pass processing capacity and overall operating efficiency of the equipment. This is very suitable for applications such as fire brigades that require rapid, batch drying of large quantities of professional equipment.

[0036] In one embodiment, guide wheel assemblies 61 are provided at the bottom ends of the two side walls parallel to the opening direction of the drying chamber 11. Each guide wheel assembly 61 includes a long, narrow wheel frame and multiple guide wheels. The wheel frame is horizontally fixed to the corresponding side wall along the opening direction of the drying chamber 11. The guide wheels are rotatably connected to the wheel frame and distributed along the length of the wheel frame. When a user pushes a mobile clothes hanger along the ground towards the opening of the drying chamber 11, the outer walls at both ends of the base 51, or the outer walls of the two adjacent bases 53, naturally embed and fit against the guide wheel assemblies 61 on both sides. With this pushing action, the sides of the base 51 continuously roll in contact with the rows of guide wheels. This structure provides a smooth sliding feel and limits the lateral displacement or deflection of the clothes hanger on the horizontal plane, providing reliable guidance and correction. After the clothes hanger slides into a predetermined depth in a straight line under this guidance, its base 51 is accurately positioned within the drying chamber 11. At this time, since the lateral position has been precisely constrained by the guide wheel assembly 61, the air inlets 531 at the ends of all bases 53 can be coaxially aligned with the corresponding lower air outlets 34 with high accuracy, thereby ensuring that the "internal air inlet" drying function is executed stably and reliably.
