[0051] The present application provides a clothes dryer that can achieve the purpose of portable clothes drying and easy storage.

[0052] Figures 1 to 7A clothes dryer provided in an embodiment of the present application comprises a clothes dryer body 1, a side panel 2 and a first limiting mechanism, wherein the clothes dryer body 1 is provided with an air outlet 120; the side panel 2 is rotatably connected to the clothes dryer body 1 and can be rotated to an expanded state or a closed state; it is defined that when the side panel 2 is in the closed state, the side of the side panel 2 facing the air outlet 120 is the inner side of the side panel 2; the first limiting structure 3 comprises a card plate 31 and a button 32, the card plate 31 is provided on the clothes dryer body 1 and is located on the inner side of the side panel 2; the card plate 31 is provided with a limiting hole 3110; wherein, when the side panel 2 is in the expanded state, the side panel 2 is inserted into the limiting hole 3110; the button 32 is arranged facing the inner side of the side panel 2, the button 32 is connected to the card plate 31, and protrudes toward the side panel 2 to be exposed in the clothes dryer body 1.

[0053] It can be understood that when the dryer needs to be used, the side panel 2 is rotated and rotated to be inserted into the limiting hole 3110. At this time, the card plate 31 limits the side panel 2, and the side panel 2 is in the unfolded state; after use, the button 32 is pressed to drive the card plate 31 to move away from the side panel 2, so that the side panel 2 is disengaged from the limiting hole 3110, and the side panel 2 can be rotated to the closed state, which can be easily stored and placed to reduce space occupancy.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the clothes dryer body 1 includes a shell 11 and a drying module 12, the shell 11 is provided with a receiving cavity 110, and the air outlet 120 is connected to the receiving cavity 110; the side plate 2 is rotatably connected to the shell 11, and a plurality of the side plates 2 are arranged around the air outlet 120; the card plate 31 and the button 32 are both arranged in the shell 11; the drying module 12 is arranged in the receiving cavity 110 and is arranged corresponding to the air outlet 120. In this way, hot air can be generated by the drying module 12 and blown out from the air outlet 120 to achieve the purpose of drying clothes. In one embodiment, the shell 11 is provided with an air inlet, and the drying module 12 includes a heating element and a fan, the fan introduces air into the receiving cavity 110, and is heated by the heating element, and the heated air is blown out from the air outlet 120.

[0055] Among them, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one end of the card plate 31 is connected to the housing 11, and the other end is a free end. The limiting hole 3110 is arranged near the free end, so that the free end of the card plate 31 can be deflected by pushing the button 32. After the external force on the button 32 disappears, the card plate 31 can return to its original position under the action of its own elasticity. In order to increase the service life of the card plate 31, the card plate 31 can be made of a material with a certain elasticity.

[0056] In this embodiment, a hook is installed on the top of the dryer body 1, and the hook is rotatably connected to the dryer body 1. When the dryer body 1 is needed, it is hung at a suitable position through the hook.

[0057] In this embodiment, the button 32 is arranged on the side of the side panel 2 facing the air outlet 120, so that the user can press the button 32 when the side panel 2 is in the unfolded state, which is convenient for the user to operate the button 32, especially for smaller users.

[0058] In this embodiment, the side panel 2 can be opened and closed manually by the user. Compared with the structure in which the side panel 2 rotates automatically, the manual structure reduces components, weight and cost, and is more convenient to carry.

[0059] The technical solution of this embodiment further comprises a clothes drying cover, which is provided with a drying chamber. The clothes drying cover is detachably covered on the side plate 2 so that the side plate 2 is located in the drying chamber.

[0060] It can be understood that the drying cover can concentrate the heat to improve the drying efficiency on the one hand, and can also play an isolating and protective role on the other hand.

[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the number of the side panels 2 is at least two, and the plurality of side panels 2 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the dryer body. In this embodiment, the number of the side panels 2 is two, and in another embodiment, the number of the side panels 2 can also be four.

[0062] The technical solution of this embodiment also includes a foldable clothes hanger (not shown in the figure), and the side panel 2 is connected to the foldable clothes hanger; when the side panel 2 is in the unfolded state, the foldable clothes hanger is unfolded for hanging clothes; when the side panel 2 is in the closed state, the foldable clothes hanger folds itself to be stored on the inner side of the side panel 2.

[0063] It is understandable that after the side panel 2 is unfolded, the foldable clothes hanger is also unfolded, and clothes and the like can be hung on the unfolded foldable clothes hanger. The foldable clothes hanger is connected to the inner side of the side panel 2. After unfolding, the air outlet 120 corresponds to the foldable clothes hanger. At the same time, the foldable clothes hanger itself can be folded for easy storage. And by arranging the foldable clothes hanger on the inner side of the side panel 2, more clothes can be hung to increase the amount of clothes to be dried.

[0064] In one embodiment, there are two side panels 2, and the foldable clothes hanger includes two first connecting chains and a folding rod assembly. The folding rod assembly includes two clothes drying rods. The two clothes drying rods are hinged, and one end of each clothes drying rod away from the other clothes drying rod is connected to one of the first connecting chains, and one end of the first connecting chain away from the clothes drying rod is connected to the inner side of the side panel 2, wherein the connecting chain is a chain.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the card plate 31 is provided with an assembly hole 3120, and the button 32 is extended to form an assembly rod 321 on the side facing the card plate 31, and the assembly rod 321 is inserted into the assembly hole 3120; the button 32 is formed with an abutment portion 322 on the side facing the card plate 31, and the assembly rod 321 is provided with a clamping portion 323 on the side away from the button 32, and the abutment portion 322 and the clamping portion 323 are respectively abutted against the two sides of the card plate 31. In this embodiment, the number of the assembly rods 321 is two.

[0066] It is understandable that the connection between the button 32 and the card plate 31 is realized by the abutting portion 322 and the clamping portion 323, and there is no need to set up a spring separately, and the card plate 31 can be directly pushed to deflect by the abutting portion 322 of the button 32. At the same time, the setting of the assembly hole 3120 can facilitate the assembly of the button 32 and the card plate 31. During assembly, the assembly rod 321 is pressed so that the assembly rod 321 provided with the clamping portion 323 passes through the assembly hole 3120. After the clamping portion 323 passes through the side of the card plate 31 away from the button 32, the clamping portion 323 is reset under the elastic action of the assembly rod 321 itself and abuts against the card plate 31.

[0067] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the button 32 is movably disposed in the housing 11 to be exposed outside the housing 11 , so as to facilitate pressing operation of the button 32 .

[0068] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the side panel 2 includes a side panel body 21 and a first plug-in portion 23, one end of the side panel body 21 is provided with a rotating portion 22, and the rotating portion 22 is connected to the dryer body 1 through a rotating shaft; the first plug-in portion 23 is convexly arranged on the rotating portion 22, and the first plug-in portion 23 is inserted into or withdrawn from the limiting hole 3110, so that the side panel 2 and the clamping plate 31 are locked or unlocked. It can be understood that the rotating portion 22 provides a mounting base for the installation of the rotating shaft; when the side panel 2 is in a closed state, the first plug-in portion 23 withdraws from the outside of the limiting hole 3110, and when the side panel 2 is in an extended state, the first plug-in portion 23 is inserted into the limiting hole 3110, so that the clamping plate 31 locks the first plug-in portion 23, so that the side panel 2 can remain in an extended state.

[0069] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the cross-sectional thickness of the rotating portion 22 is greater than the cross-sectional thickness of the side plate body 21 , which can improve the strength of the rotating portion 22 .

[0070] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, a base 4 is further included. When the side panel 2 is in the closed state, one end of the side panel 2 away from the dryer body 1 is detachably connected to the base 4.

[0071] It is understandable that the base 4 can provide a storage position, so the clothes dryer does not need to be hung all the time, and can be moved at will for convenient storage. The base 4, the side panels 2 and the clothes dryer body 1 enclose a storage cavity, and the clothes dryer cover can be removed and stored in the storage cavity.

[0072] As shown Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, a second plug-in portion 25 is provided at one end of the side plate 2 away from the dryer body 1;

[0073] The base 4 includes a base body 41 and a second limiting structure 42.

[0074] It is understandable that the positioning hole 4110 provides positioning for the second plug-in portion 25, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid positioning and installation. After the second plug-in portion 25 is inserted into the positioning hole 4110, the side plate 2 is connected to the base 4 through the first limiting structure 3.

[0075] like Figure 4 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the second plug-in portion 25 is provided with a plug-in hole 2510; the base body 41 is provided with a mounting cavity 410, a first avoidance hole 420 and a second avoidance hole 430, and the first avoidance hole 420 and the second avoidance hole 430 are respectively connected to the mounting cavity 410;

[0076] The second limiting structure 42 includes a pushing member 421, a telescopic member 422 and a reset member (not shown in the figure), the pushing member 421 is movably arranged in the installation cavity 410, and is passed through the second avoiding hole 430; the pushing member 421 is provided with an operating part 4211, and the operating part 4211 is movably passed through the first avoiding hole 420; the telescopic member 422 is movably arranged in the installation cavity 410, and the telescopic member 422 is connected to the pushing member 421; the telescopic member 422 is inserted into or withdrawn from the plug hole 2510 under the drive of the pushing member 421; the reset member is connected to the pushing member 421, and is used to provide a force on the pushing member 421 toward the plug hole 2510.

[0077] It can be understood that the operating part 4211 is movably arranged in the first avoidance hole 420, so that the user can push the operating part 4211 to drive the push member 421 to move, and the moving push member 421 drives the telescopic member 422 to move, so that the telescopic member 422 is inserted into or withdrawn from the plug hole 2510, so as to achieve the clamping or unlocking of the base 4 and the side panel 2. Among them, the reset member can provide a force to the push member 421 or the telescopic member 422 in the direction of the plug hole 2510, so that the telescopic member 422 is stably inserted into the plug hole 2510, thereby improving the connection stability between the side panel 2 and the base 4.

[0078] In this embodiment, the first avoidance hole 420 is located at the bottom of the base 4, the second avoidance hole 430 is located on the peripheral side of the base body 41, the second plug-in portion 25 of the side panel 2 is inserted into the positioning hole 4110 along the first direction, and the telescopic member 422 moves linearly along the second direction driven by the pushing member 421, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0079] To facilitate assembly, in this embodiment, the base body 41 includes an upper plate 43, a middle shell 44 and a bottom plate 45.
