Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of quick-drying umbrellas, in particular to a portable quick-drying device for umbrellas. Background Art
[0002] The problem of storing and drying umbrellas after use on rainy days has always been a problem that people need to solve, especially in public places such as shopping malls and subways. Used umbrellas will cause the ground to be wet, which can easily lead to safety accidents.
[0003] A common method of drying an umbrella is to hang a wet umbrella in a well-ventilated place and dry the umbrella by natural wind and room temperature. However, this method takes a long time to dry the umbrella and cannot be used in situations where quick drying is required.
[0004] Some commercial places also provide disposable umbrella bags. Although disposable umbrella bags provide a certain convenience in some aspects, disposable umbrella bags are usually made of plastic, which means that they have a negative impact on the environment. Plastic bags generate a lot of waste during production and processing, which pollutes the environment. Disposable umbrella bags are discarded after being used once, which leads to a waste of resources. A large number of plastic bags are manufactured and used, consuming many limited resources. Due to the short lifespan and non-degradability of disposable umbrella bags, they cannot be recycled or reused. This further exacerbates the waste problem and environmental burden. Disposable umbrella bags are usually only for single use and cannot last for a long time. They have low durability and are easily damaged or broken. Disposable umbrella bags usually only provide basic storage functions and cannot solve the problem of slippery ground caused by wet umbrellas. In addition, they cannot dry umbrellas quickly and can only play a simple wrapping role.
[0005] Of course, there are also many patents that disclose structures for drying umbrellas by blowing air. Specifically, the utility model patent with patent number 201320022655.X discloses an umbrella storage cabinet that allows umbrellas to dry quickly, which is used for storing umbrellas. The umbrella storage cabinet includes a cabinet body and a cabinet door. The top of the cabinet body is provided with a hook, the bottom of the cabinet body is provided with a water receiving tray, the cabinet body is provided with a controller, and the back plate of the cabinet body is provided with a plurality of fans, the fans are electrically connected to the controllers respectively, and the side of the cabinet body is provided with exhaust holes. The cabinet body is divided into a plurality of horizontally arranged storage compartments, the storage compartments are consistent with the umbrellas, and the back plate of the storage compartments is provided with a plurality of air holes. The fans are fixed on the air holes and are concentric with the air holes. Refer to the attached manual. Figure 1 It can be seen that the air outlet direction of the air hole blows directly towards the umbrella, but the side of the umbrella facing away from the air hole cannot be blown dry, and the umbrella cannot achieve the effect of quick drying. Utility Model Content
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a convenient umbrella quick dryer to solve the problem of poor working effect of the existing umbrella quick drying structure.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the inventor provides a portable umbrella quick dryer, comprising:

[0009] A fan assembly, comprising a fan, a mounting seat and a guide plate, wherein the fan is fixed to the mounting seat, the mounting seat is fixed to the fan assembly mounting portion, the guide plate is arranged below the fan, and a guide hole is arranged on the guide plate;
[0010] A drain box is configured to be pullable and installed in the drain box opening.
[0011] Furthermore, the fan assembly mounting portion is higher than the drain bucket opening.
[0012] Furthermore, the fan assembly mounting portion includes a vertically arranged mounting portion side plate, and the mounting portion side plate faces the drain bucket opening.
[0013] Furthermore, the fan assembly mounting portion and the drain bucket opening are both semicircular in top view.
[0014] Furthermore, a plurality of umbrella hooks are arranged in a transverse arrangement on the side plate of the mounting portion.
[0015] Furthermore, the longitudinal section of the mounting seat is a C-shaped structure, and the opening of the C-shaped structure faces the air inlet.
[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a filter plate, which is horizontally arranged on the inner wall of the drain bucket body, and the filter plate is arranged above the opening of the drain box.
[0017] Furthermore, the guide hole is an elongated hole, and an extension direction of the guide hole is not perpendicular to the side plate of the mounting portion.
[0018] Different from the prior art, the above technical solution has the following advantages: the portable umbrella quick dryer arranges the fan assembly and the drain bucket opening in parallel through the fan assembly mounting part and the drain bucket opening arranged in parallel. After the fan assembly is in operation, the airflow will blow downward into the drain bucket body and form a reflux in the drain bucket body.

[0048] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present embodiment provides a portable umbrella quick dryer, comprising:
[0049] The drain bucket body 10 has a fan assembly mounting portion 11 and a drain bucket opening 12 disposed on its upper portion. The fan assembly mounting portion 11 and the drain bucket opening 12 are disposed in parallel. The fan assembly mounting portion 11 is provided with an air inlet 13. The drain bucket body 10 has a drain box opening 14 disposed on its lower portion.
[0050] The fan assembly 20 includes a fan 21, a mounting seat 22 and a guide plate 23, wherein the fan 21 is fixed to the mounting seat 22, the mounting seat 22 is fixed to the fan assembly mounting portion 11, the guide plate 23 is arranged below the fan 21, and a guide hole 231 is arranged on the guide plate 23;
[0051] The drain box 30 can be pulled out and installed in the drain box opening 14 .
[0052] The cross section of the drain bucket body 10 is generally circular, and the circular cross section of the drain bucket body 10 can provide better stability and balance. Since the circular shape has uniformly distributed force lines, the drain bucket is more stable during use and is not easy to tip over or lose balance, which is very important for preventing accidents or tilts of the umbrella dryer during operation. The circular cross section can also provide a larger volume, so that the drain bucket body 10 can collect more umbrellas and better collect the water dripping from the umbrellas. In addition, the curved inner wall can also guide the airflow to be more evenly distributed, and more effectively distribute the airflow evenly inside the drain bucket, ensuring that the umbrella can be fully exposed to the airflow, thereby accelerating the drying process of the umbrella. Of course, in other embodiments, the cross section of the drain bucket body 10 can also be other shapes, such as square or oval.
[0053] The drain barrel body 10 has an inner cavity for the umbrella to be inserted into and dried, and the airflow forms a reflux in the inner cavity to dry the raindrops on the surface of the umbrella.
[0054] The drain bucket opening 12 is an opening provided at the top of the drain bucket body 10, and its opening direction faces upward, so that the user can put the umbrella to be dried into the quick dryer from above. Specifically, the opening can face directly upward, or face obliquely upward. The fan assembly mounting portion 11 faces the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10. After the fan assembly 20 is mounted on the fan assembly mounting portion 11, the airflow blown out by the fan assembly 20 refluxes in the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10. The fan assembly 20 is mounted on the upper part of the drain bucket body 10, and its purpose is that the airflow blown out by the fan assembly 20 blows from top to bottom toward the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10, and then forms a reflux at the bottom and side wall of the drain bucket body 10, thereby forming a continuous gas flow in the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10 to take away the raindrops on the umbrella.
[0055] In some embodiments, the bottom of the drain bucket body 10 opposite to the fan assembly mounting portion 11 is a return plate, and the airflow output by the fan assembly 20 will rebound from the return plate and blow toward the umbrella.
[0056] The drain box opening 14 is used for installing the drain box 30, and the drain box 30 is used to collect the water flowing out of the drain bucket body 10 to prevent the water from flowing onto the ground and causing the ground to be slippery.
[0057] The housing of the fan 21 is connected to the mounting base 22 by a connector, such as bolts, nuts, rivets and other connectors. The mounting base 22 can be connected to the drain bucket body 10 by detachable connectors such as bolts and nuts, which is convenient for repairing or replacing the fan assembly 20. The air outlet direction of the fan blades of the fan 21 is toward the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10, that is, the air outlet direction of the fan 21 is installed downward. The guide holes 231 on the guide plate 23 can effectively guide the airflow output by the fan 21.
[0058] The portable umbrella quick dryer arranges the fan assembly 20 and the drain bucket opening in parallel through the fan assembly mounting portion 11 and the drain bucket opening 12 arranged in parallel. After the fan assembly 20 is in operation, the airflow will blow downward into the drain bucket body 10 and form a reflux in the drain bucket body 10. Under the rapid flow of the airflow, the rainwater on the surface of the umbrella inserted into the drain bucket opening 12 is dried. The portable umbrella quick dryer has a simple structure, and the formed airflow reflux can effectively increase the flow rate in the drain bucket body 10, and there is no dead angle for blowing the hung umbrella, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the umbrella.
[0059] In some embodiments, the drain box opening 14 faces the side of the drain bucket body 10, and in the height direction of the drain bucket body 10, the positive projection of the drain box opening 14 on the drain bucket body 10 is located in the middle thereof. The resulting effect is that the drain bucket body 10 has two bottom plates of different heights. The portion located in front of the drain box opening 14 in the water outlet direction serves as a return plate, and the portion located behind the drain box opening 14 in the water outlet direction provides an installation structure for the drain box 30.
[0060] In some embodiments, the fan assembly mounting portion 11 is higher than the drain bucket opening 12. After the fan assembly 20 is mounted in the fan assembly mounting portion 11, the working position of the fan 21 is higher than the drain bucket opening 12. During the operation of the fan 21, airflow can be formed at the position below the drain bucket opening 12. The arrangement structure in this embodiment can expand the gas reflux space in the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10, which helps to improve the efficiency of drying the umbrella.
[0061] In some embodiments, the fan assembly mounting portion 11 includes a vertically arranged mounting portion side plate 111, and the mounting portion side plate 111 faces the drain bucket opening 12. The mounting portion side plate 111 separates the upper portion of the drain bucket body 10 into the fan assembly mounting portion 11 and the drain bucket opening 12, and the height of the mounting portion side plate 111 is the installation height occupied by the fan assembly 20.
[0062] In some embodiments, the fan assembly mounting portion 11 and the drain bucket opening 12 are both semicircular in top view. The top view refers to the view from top to bottom when the quick dryer is placed upright on the ground / desktop. The drain bucket opening 12 is located on the top view.
[0063] In some embodiments, a plurality of umbrella hooks 40 are arranged horizontally on the side plate 111 of the mounting portion. These umbrella hooks 40 can be used to hang multiple umbrellas so that the umbrellas can be hung on the portable umbrella quick dryer for quick drying after use. By arranging the umbrella hooks 40 horizontally, the airflow generated by the fan assembly 20 can be fully utilized to cover the umbrellas hung thereon, thereby accelerating the drying process of the umbrellas. Such a design can save space and facilitate users to handle multiple umbrellas at the same time, thereby increasing the versatility and practicality of the portable umbrella quick dryer.
[0064] In addition, the three-fold umbrella and the long-handled umbrella can use the drain bucket body 10 of different height specifications, which can improve the space utilization rate of the quick dryer.
[0065] In some embodiments, the longitudinal section of the mounting seat 22 is a C-shaped structure, and the opening of the C-shaped structure faces the air inlet 13. The air inlet 13 can be a through hole evenly distributed on the side wall of the drain bucket body 10, and the position of the air inlet 13 corresponds to the fan assembly mounting portion 11. The air inlet 13 inputs external airflow into the inner cavity of the drain bucket body 10.
[0066] In some embodiments, a filter plate 50 is further included, and the filter plate 50 is horizontally arranged on the inner wall of the drain bucket body 10, and the filter plate 50 is arranged above the drain box opening 14. The presence of the filter plate 50 in the portable umbrella quick dryer can effectively filter out the debris and residues in the drain bucket body 10, ensure the clean water quality of the drain water flowing into the drain box 30, and facilitate the direct discharge of the water in the drain box 30. The filter plate 50 is horizontally arranged on the inner wall of the drain bucket body 10, which can prevent the entry of debris and residues before the drain water flows into the drain box 30. In addition, the filter plate 50 is arranged above the drain box opening 14, which can make the filter plate 50 easier to clean and maintain, and facilitate the user to remove the accumulation on the filter plate 50 and maintain its smoothness.
[0067] In some embodiments, the guide hole 231 is a long hole, and the extension direction of the guide hole 231 is not perpendicular to the mounting portion side plate 111. The airflow input into the drain bucket body 10 through the guide hole 231 can make the airflow blown by the fan 21 form a certain angle, prolong the flow time of the airflow in the drain bucket body 10, and form a spiral rising airflow.
[0068] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the specification and drawings of this application, this does not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. All technical solutions generated by replacing or modifying equivalent structures or equivalent processes based on the essential concept of this application using the contents recorded in the specification and drawings of this application, as well as directly or indirectly implementing the technical solutions of the above embodiments in other related technical fields, are included in the scope of patent protection of this application.
