[0032] The utility model provides a drying bracket.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 8 The drying rack includes a housing 10, a clothes drying rod 20 and a sealing structure 30. The housing 10 is formed with a heating chamber 11 and a connecting through hole 12 connected to the heating chamber 11; the clothes drying rod 20 is provided with an air guide channel 21, an air inlet 22 and an air outlet 23, and the air inlet 22 and the air outlet 23 are respectively connected to the air guide channel 21; the clothes drying rod 20 has an unfolded state and a retracted state, such as Figure 1 As shown, in the unfolded state, the clothes drying rod 20 is located outside the housing 10 and is open relative to the housing 10, the air inlet 22 is connected to the connecting through hole 12, and the sealing structure 30 seals the clothes drying rod 20 and the connecting through hole 12; Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in the storage state, the clothes drying rod 20 is stored in the heating chamber 11; and the sealing structure 30 blocks the connecting through hole 12.

[0034] A drying rack is a device that dries wet clothes by converting cold air into hot air. Figure 8 , where the arrow indicates the direction of hot air flow, U indicates that hot air rises, and D indicates that hot air falls. In this embodiment, cold air enters the shell 10 and is converted into hot air in the heating chamber 11. After the hot air rises, it enters the air guide channel 21 from the air inlet 22 and is discharged from the air outlet 23 to dry the clothes hung or placed on the clothesline 20. If the air outlet 23 is set at the bottom of the shell 10, multiple pieces of clothing hung on the clothesline 20 may move in the direction of the wind under the influence of the wind. The gaps between the multiple pieces of clothing are too small to be heated evenly, resulting in some clothes being dried and some clothes being wet, or one piece of clothing being partially dried and partially wet. In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The air outlet 23 is arranged on the clothes-drying rod 20 so that multiple pieces of clothing can be heated evenly, and some clothes can be prevented from being partially dried and some clothes from being wet. In the unfolded state, the sealing structure 30 seals the clothes-drying rod 20 and the connecting through hole 12, which can prevent heat loss and also prevent the hot air from burning the user's skin. In the stored state, the sealing structure 30 blocks the connecting through hole 12 to prevent the clothes-drying rod 20 from being stained with dust, making it convenient for the next use.

[0035] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The sealing structure 30 includes a first sealing sheet 31, which is disposed at one end of the clothes drying rod 20. The first sealing sheet 31 is provided with an air inlet 22. In the unfolded state, the first sealing sheet 31 is sealed against the inner surface of the housing 10. The first sealing sheet 31 is sealed against the inner surface of the housing 10, including but not limited to the surface of the first sealing sheet 31 being abutted against the inner surface of the housing 10, or the periphery of the first sealing sheet 31 being abutted against the edge of the hole wall of the connecting through hole 12.

[0036] For further information, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The sealing structure 30 further includes a second sealing sheet 32, which is disposed at the other end of the clothes drying rod 20. In the storage state, the second sealing sheet 32 ​​is sealed against the outer surface of the housing 10. The second sealing sheet 32 ​​is sealed against the outer surface of the housing 10, including but not limited to the surface of the second sealing sheet 32 ​​abutting against the outer surface of the housing 10, or the periphery of the second sealing sheet 32 ​​abutting against the edge of the hole wall of the connecting through hole 12.

[0037] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 The second sealing sheet 32 ​​is provided with a handle portion 321, and the handle portion 321 is located outside the housing 10. The handle portion 321 includes but is not limited to a ring shape or a pancake shape. Providing the handle portion 321 on the second sealing sheet 32 ​​can facilitate the user to unfold or store the clothes drying rod 20.

[0038] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6A plurality of connecting through holes 12 are arranged at intervals along the periphery of the shell 10; a limiting structure 13 is arranged on the upper surface of the shell 10 corresponding to each connecting through hole 12, and the limiting structure 13 forms a limiting groove 131 with a notch away from the outer surface of the shell 10; in the unfolded state, the clothes drying rod 20 overlaps the limiting groove 131 from the notch, and the clothes drying rod 20 is spaced apart from the outer surface of the shell 10.

[0039] During the use of the drying rack 100, hot air flows in the air guide channel 21 of the clothes drying rod 20, causing the temperature of the clothes drying rod 20 to rise continuously. If the clothes drying rod 20 is directly overlapped on the top of the shell 10 at this time, the shell 10 may be damaged. If the clothes drying rod 20 is columnar, the clothes drying rod 20 may roll on the top of the shell 10. In this way, it is inconvenient for users to dry clothes, and it also affects the overall stability of the drying rack 100, causing the drying rack 100 to tip over. In this embodiment, in the unfolded state, the clothes drying rod 20 overlaps the limit groove 131 from the notch, and the clothes drying rod 20 is spaced from the outer surface of the shell 10. In this way, it can be avoided that the clothes drying rod 20 burns the shell 10, and it can also be avoided to limit the position of the clothes drying rod 20.

[0040] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The limiting structure 13 includes two limiting ribs 132 arranged at intervals, and the two limiting ribs 132 form a limiting groove 131. The interval between the two limiting ribs 132 near the groove is larger than the interval away from the groove. In some embodiments, the two limiting ribs 132 have inclined surfaces 1321 arranged opposite to each other. On the one hand, the inclined surfaces 1321 have a guiding function, guiding the clothes drying rod 20 to overlap the limiting groove 131 from the groove; on the other hand, the inclined surfaces 1321 make the interval between the two limiting ribs 132 near the groove larger than the interval away from the groove, so that the limiting groove 131 can play the role of limiting and heat insulation at the same time.

[0041] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The clothes drying rod 20 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 23 at intervals along its length direction. In the unfolded state, the angle between the air outlet direction of the air outlet 23 and the gravity direction is less than 90 degrees.

[0042] The clothes-drying rod 20 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 23 at intervals along the length direction, so that the multiple pieces of clothing hung on the clothes-drying rod 20 can be heated evenly. It is understandable that the clothing is generally hung on the clothes-drying rod 20, and the clothing is located below the clothes-drying rod 20. If the angle between the air outlet direction of the air outlet 23 and the gravity direction is equal to 90 degrees, the clothes-drying rod 20 discharges air from the side, and the clothing located below the clothes-drying rod 20 cannot contact the hot air. If the angle between the air outlet direction of the air outlet 23 and the gravity direction is greater than 90 degrees, the clothes-drying rod 20 discharges air upward. The density of hot air is small and the weight is relatively light. After being discharged from the air outlet 23, the hot air will rise, so that the clothing located below the clothes-drying rod 20 cannot be heated, and the directly rising hot air has the risk of burning the user's skin. In this embodiment, the angle between the air outlet direction of the air outlet 23 and the gravity direction is less than 90 degrees. In this way, the hot air can fully contact the clothing, improve the drying efficiency and reduce the heat loss.

[0043] In some embodiments, a hanging ring 54 is provided between the air outlets 23 spaced apart along the length direction of the clothes drying rod 20. In this way, a clothes hanger with strong thermal conductivity or not resistant to high temperature can be hung on the clothes drying rod 20 from the hanging ring 54.

[0044] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The drying bracket also includes a support assembly 40 sleeved on the outer surface of the shell 10 and a limit adjustment member 50 movably connected to the support assembly 40; the limit adjustment member 50 includes a locking state and an active state; in the locked state, the limit adjustment member 50 locks the support assembly 40 relative to the shell 10; in the active state, the support assembly 40 can move relative to the outer surface of the shell 10 along the direction of gravity.

[0045] Since the weight of clothes varies and the number of clothes to be dried varies, the drying rack 100 may easily tip over as a whole when clothes are hung on the clothes drying rod 20. The support assembly 40 can improve the stability of the drying rack and prevent the drying rack 100 from tipping over. The limit adjustment member 50 can adjust the height of the support assembly 40 relative to the ground and fix the support assembly 40 in a suitable position. In some embodiments, the limit adjustment member 50 is a limit screw 52, ​​which can be switched between a locked state and an active state by screwing.

[0046] The cooperation between the limit adjustment member 50 and the support assembly 40 can not only change the overall height of the drying rack 100, which is convenient for users to dry long clothes such as long skirts or trousers; it can also facilitate the movement of the drying rack 100. For example, the limit adjustment member 50 can move the support assembly 40 to a distance from the bottom surface. This avoids breaking the support assembly 40 when dragging or moving the drying rack 100. In some embodiments, the support assembly 40 is adjusted to abut against the ground with the bottom surface of the shell 10. In this way, the center of gravity of the drying rack 100 is lowered and the stability is improved.

[0047] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 The support assembly 40 includes an annular body 41 sleeved on the shell 10 and a plurality of support legs 42 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the annular body 41 . The support legs 42 are rotatably connected to the annular body 41 so as to be able to be opened and retracted relative to the shell 10 .

[0048] The support legs 42 are rotatably connected to the annular body 41, making the use of the drying rack 100 more flexible. When the support legs 42 are opened relative to the shell 10, the overall stability of the drying rack 100 can be improved, and the drying rack 100 can be prevented from tipping over when clothes are hung. When the support legs 42 are folded, the floor space occupied by the drying rack 100 when it is idle can be reduced, making it easier for users to store it. In some embodiments, universal wheels 51 are provided at the bottom of the drying rack 100. When the user wants to move the drying rack, the support legs 42 can be folded and spaced from the ground. Combined with the outward-facing wheels, the user can save effort when moving the drying rack 100, and can also prevent the support legs 42 from breaking or scratching the ground when moving.

[0049] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The housing 10 includes a base 14, an air guide tube 15, a heating element 16 and a fan 17. The base 14 is connected to the lower end of the air guide tube 15, and the heating element 16 and the fan 17 are located in the base 14. In the storage state, the clothes drying rod 20 is stored in the air guide tube 15. The base 14 is connected to the lower end of the air guide tube 15 and the heating element 16 and the fan 17 are located in the base 14, which can lower the center of gravity of the drying rack 100, improve the stability of the drying rack 100, and prevent the drying rack 100 from tipping over when hanging clothes.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The peripheral wall of the base 14 is provided with an air inlet 53 to facilitate the drying bracket 100 to absorb external air. Figure 7 , the heating element 16 is located above the fan 17, and the function of the fan 17 is to diffuse the hot air and increase the flow speed of the hot air in the air guide tube 15. In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 The heating element 16 is located below the fan 17 . At this time, the function of the fan 17 is to increase the flow speed of the cold air in the base 14 and continuously blow cold air to the heating element 16 .

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The support leg 42 includes a support body 421 and a support accessory 422, wherein the support body 421 is hinged to the annular body, and the support accessory 422 is hinged to the support body 421 and the base 14 at the same time. The hinge makes it easier to open or close the support leg 42, and avoids the support leg 42 from being lost during the adjustment of opening or closing. The support accessory 422 can prevent the support body 421 from rotating relative to the annular body when the hinge relationship between the support body 421 and the annular body is loose, so as to maintain the stability of the drying rack 100.

[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
