[0050] Optionally, the first pipe 111a and the second pipe 112b can be fixedly connected by a buckle structure, and the buckle structure can include a third buckle part A and a fourth buckle part B. The third buckle part A can be a structural component such as a protrusion or a clamping point, and the fourth buckle part B can be a structural component such as a groove or a through hole. During assembly, the third buckle part A slides into the fourth buckle part B to achieve fixation. For example, Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second pipe 112b is provided with a third buckle portion A. Fig.10 The structure in which the first pipe 111a is provided with the fourth buckle portion B is shown. Fig. 9 The structure in which the two are fixedly connected by the third buckle part A and the fourth buckle part B is shown. Optionally, the layout positions of the third buckle part A and the fourth buckle part B can be interchanged, such as arranging the third buckle part A on the first pipe 111a and arranging the fourth buckle part B on the second pipe 112b; or the third buckle part A can be arranged on the upper side of the first pipe 111a and the fourth buckle part B on the lower side, and correspondingly, the fourth buckle part B is arranged on the upper side of the second pipe 112b and the third buckle part A is arranged on the lower side. Among them, the layout of the buckle structure can adapt to the adjustment of the sleeve position of the first pipe 111a and the second pipe 112b, such as using one or more buckle structures to achieve fixation, or arranging on which side of the pipe, etc.

[0051] On this basis, in order to improve the convenience of installation and reduce the difficulty of assembly, a movable part C is arranged on the second pipe 112b, such as Figure 8As shown, one end of the movable part C is connected to one end of the second pipe 112b facing the inside of the first pipe 111a, and the other end (free end) is provided with a third buckle part A or a fourth buckle part B, so that when the second pipe 112b is inserted into the inside of the first pipe 111a, the movable part C is retracted into the inside of the second pipe 112b to reduce resistance, and finally the movable part C returns to its original position at the location where the buckle structure is arranged, and the fixed connection between the first pipe 111a and the second pipe 112b is realized.

[0052] In a feasible embodiment, in order to improve the stability of clothes hung on the clothes-drying rod 12 and prevent the hung clothes from sliding along the clothes-drying rod 12, a plurality of hanging rings 121 may be provided on the clothes-drying rod 12.

In order to improve the flexibility of the clothes-drying rod 12 provided with the movable hanging rings 121 in extending and retracting along the length direction of the first pipe 111a and to reduce resistance, a sliding portion D may be provided on the fixing member 112. Optionally, the fixing member 112 further includes a sliding portion D provided along the bottom of the second pipe 112b, such as Figure 6 When the drying rod 12 is retracted into the first pipe 111a, the hanging ring 121 can be retracted into the drying rod 12 along the sliding portion D.

[0053] Optionally, the cross section of the sliding portion D is a right triangle, such as Figure 6 As shown, one right-angle side thereof is connected to the second pipe 112b, and the other right-angle side is perpendicular to the second pipe 112b.

[0054] Optionally, in order to improve the efficiency of assembly and production efficiency, the fixing member 112 may also include a baffle 112c extending vertically outward along the end of the second pipe 112b and the sliding portion D. The arrangement of the baffle 112c is conducive to improving the matching degree between the pipe body 111 and the fixing member 112 in the air-drying rod sleeve 11. The arrangement of the baffle 112c can improve the overall aesthetics of the air-drying rod sleeve 11 on the one hand, and avoid the exposure of the inner arrangement structure or components. On the other hand, it can improve the efficiency of assembling the pipe body 111 and the fixing member 112. The arrangement of the baffle 112c can remind the assembler whether the position of the second pipe 112b embedded in the first pipe 111a is in place. Optionally, the first fastener 112a is arranged at the bottom of the baffle 112c, and the end of the first panel 132 is fixedly connected to the first fastener 112a arranged at the bottom of the baffle 112c.

[0057] Optionally, the connecting member 3 may be a steel wire rope or a scissors rack, one end of which is fixed to the main unit 2 and the other end is fixed by the bracket 13 of the drying rod assembly 1 .

[0058] Alternatively, if Fig.12 As shown, the first panel 132 is located on one side close to the end of the host 2 and can be used to cover the bottom of the host 2, such as covering at least part of the exposed components.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a first panel 132 extending outward from the bottom of one side of the main frame 131 is provided. The arrangement of the first panel 132 can effectively cover at least part of the exposed components, thereby improving the aesthetics of the clothes drying machine. The first panel 132 is extended from the main frame 131, which will not affect the overall thickness of the clothes drying machine, and does not need to be assembled with the main frame 132, which can effectively simplify the assembly operation and reduce the production cost. The fixed connection between the first panel 132 and the fixing member 112 can effectively improve the stability of the first panel 132 and prevent the first panel 132 from deformation.

[0060] The above description is only a partial implementation method of the present disclosure. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the technical concept of the scheme of the present disclosure, other similar implementation means based on the technical concept of the present disclosure are also within the protection scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
