[0002] Existing clothes drying machines are basically flat screen or small screen clothes drying machines. The light emitted by the lighting module of such flat screen is vertically downward, and the light emission angle is small, resulting in weak light to both sides and limited lighting effect. In order to achieve better lighting effect, some businesses in the market currently use curved screen lighting modules instead of flat screen lighting modules, so that light can also be emitted from both sides of the screen to achieve large-angle lighting for the clothes drying machine.

[0003] However, the current curved screen lighting module of the clothes drying machine mainly realizes large-angle light emission by setting the light board to a curved shape similar to the curved lampshade, fixing it inside the clothes drying machine body, and then setting the curved lampshade on the outside of the curved light board. However, under this setting method, the size of the light board is large and the assembly structure is complex; and in order to emit light evenly, the light board and the lampshade are often spaced to form a light emission space, and dust or mosquitoes can easily enter the light emission space to cause black spots, thereby affecting user use.

[0036] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, a direct connection, or a connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0037] See also Figure 1-4 The embodiment of the present application provides a curved screen clothes drying machine, comprising a curved lighting module 10, the lighting module 10 comprising a light guide 11 and at least one light emitter 12, the light guide 11 is U-shaped in the width direction and extends into a curved surface in the length direction, the light emitter 12 is arranged closely along the U-shaped side of the light guide 11, the shape of the light emitter 12 is adapted to the light guide 11, and the length of the light emitter 12 is less than or equal to the U-shaped arc length of the light guide 11. The curved screen clothes drying machine provided by the embodiment of the present application realizes the lighting function of the clothes drying machine through the lighting module 10. Under this setting mode, the light is introduced into the entire light guide 11 through the U-shaped side of the light guide 11, and then the light is diverged through the light guide 11, so that the clothes drying machine can emit light at a large angle, and the lighting effect and light uniformity of the clothes drying machine can be enhanced. At the same time, due to the strong integrity of the light guide 11, dust or mosquitoes can be prevented from entering the light guide 11 to form a black shadow, thereby affecting the use of the user.

[0038] Preferably, in the present embodiment, there are two light emitting bodies 12 , which are respectively arranged outside the two U-shaped sides of the light guide 11 , with their light emitting surfaces facing the U-shaped side of the light guide 11 adjacent thereto.

[0039] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the lighting module 10 is further provided with a bottom plate 13, which has the same shape as the light guide 11 and is fixedly arranged on the concave side of the light guide 11. A flange 131 is arranged at the edge of the bottom plate 13, and the cross-sectional shape of the bottom plate 13 along the length direction is U-shaped. The light guide 11 is embedded in the area surrounded by the flange 131, and the light emitting body 12 can be fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the flange 131, and its light emitting surface faces the U-shaped side of the light guide 11. In this way, the light emitting body 12 is surrounded within the range of the bottom plate 13, which can effectively prevent the lighting module 10 from leaking light from the side.

[0040] It is understandable that the light-emitting body 12 can be a U-shaped light-emitting body formed by bending a soft light strip, or a U-shaped light-emitting body formed by a plurality of lamp beads arranged at intervals on a U-shaped light board, which is not limited here.

[0041] Specifically, in some embodiments, the light guide 11 includes a reflector 113, a light guide 112, and a diffuser 111 which are stacked closely in sequence; the reflector 113, the light guide 112, and the diffuser 111 are U-shaped curved plates of the same shape, the reflector 113 is arranged close to the bottom plate 13, and the diffuser 111 is arranged at the outermost layer, which is the light emitting plate of the lighting module 10. During the production process, the reflector 113, the light guide 112, and the diffuser 111 are stacked in sequence by a heat treatment method, and then bent into a required curved surface after heating. The light emitted by the light emitting body 12 enters the light guide 112 through the side of the light guide 112, a part of which is directly emitted from the diffuser 111, and the other part is reflected by the reflector 113 and then emitted from the diffuser 111.

[0042] Preferably, in the present embodiment, the light emitting surface of the light-emitting body 12 is arranged opposite to the U-shaped side edge of the light guide plate 112, and both ends of the diffusion plate 111 located downstream of the light path of the light guide plate 112 protrude from the light guide plate 112, which can be used to block the light-emitting gap between the light-emitting body 12 and the light guide plate 112, further avoiding light leakage of the lighting module 10, making the light emission of the lighting module 10 more uniform, and improving the integrity of the clothes drying machine.

[0043] Furthermore, light guide dots are arranged on one side of the light guide plate 112 facing the diffuser plate 111, so that light is easily reflected and refracted when passing through these light guide dots, and then emitted through the diffuser plate 111, and the light uniformity of the light guide 11 is increased by a large amount of reflection and refraction of the light. It is understandable that the size and density of these light guide dots can be designed according to the shape of the light guide 11 and the actual light output needs, which will not be described in detail here.

[0044] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a layer of adjustment cotton 14 is sandwiched between the reflector 113 and the base plate 13 to adjust the overall thickness of the lighting module 10 , and at the same time can play a buffering role and can also be used for the routing of the light source 12 .

[0045] See also Figure 5-7 Furthermore, in some embodiments, the curved screen clothes drying machine also includes a frame structure 20, and the lighting module 10 is fixed to the top of the clothes drying machine through the frame structure 20.

[0046] Specifically, the frame structure 20 includes a top cover 21, a frame 22 and a fixing member 23; the frame 22 is provided at both ends of the top cover 21 in the length direction and is fixed to the top cover 21 through the fixing member 23; the frame 22 is adapted to the U-shaped side shape of the lighting module 10, and the frame 22 is connected to the end of the lighting module 10. In this way, the lighting module 10 can be fixed on the top of the clothes drying machine.

[0047] Furthermore, the frame 22 covers part of the light-emitting surface of the end of the lighting module 10, so that the uneven light-emitting area at the end of the lighting module 10 can be blocked, and the light-emitting range between the two frames 22 is uniform, thereby improving the integrity of the clothes drying machine. Preferably, the frame 22 at least covers the area directly above the light emitter, covering the light emitter 12.

[0048] Furthermore, in some embodiments, mounting holes 212 are provided at both ends of the top cover 21 in the length direction, and the top cover 21 is fixed to the wall by fasteners passing through the mounting holes 212 .

[0049] Furthermore, the top cover 21 is provided with baffles 211 protruding from the plane of the top cover 21 on both sides along its length direction, and the two ends of the lighting module 10 in the width direction are fixedly inserted between the two baffles 211, and are surrounded by the top cover 21 to form an accommodation space for installing components such as a power device and a circuit board. The baffles 211 on both sides of the top cover 21 can block the two ends of the lighting module 10 in the width direction, so that the light output of the overall light output surface of the lighting module 10 is more uniform. At the same time, it can also prevent external dust or mosquitoes from entering the clothes drying machine and affecting the stability of the clothes drying machine. Preferably, the baffle 211 is formed by bending a sheet metal and is integrally formed with the top cover 21 to improve the integrity of the clothes drying machine.

[0050] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the frame 22 is provided with a U-shaped mounting groove 221 having the same shape as the U-shaped side of the lighting module 10, and the U-shaped side of the lighting module 10 is inserted into the mounting groove 221, so that the lighting module 10 is fixed below the top cover 21. Preferably, the mounting groove 221 is provided with a certain depth, so that the outer side wall of the mounting groove 221 can completely cover the light-emitting gap between the light-emitting body 12 and the light guide plate 112, so that the light output of the lighting module 10 is more uniform.

[0051] Furthermore, the outer end surface of the frame 22 is away from the lighting module 10 and is recessed toward the interior of the accommodating space to form a accommodating groove 222 of a certain depth. The orthographic projection of the accommodating groove 222 in the plane of the top cover 21 completely covers the mounting hole 212. In this way, the mounting hole 212 can be shielded, traditional decorative parts are eliminated, the structure of the frame structure 20 is simplified, and the effective light output length of the entire clothes dryer is effectively extended, thereby improving the integrity and aesthetics of the clothes dryer.

[0052] At the same time, the accommodating groove 222 can also be used to accommodate rollers, micro switches and other drying rod lifting control components that control the lifting of the drying rod. These drying rod lifting control components are arranged in the accommodating groove 222, and the lighting module 10 covers the bottom of the accommodating groove 222, and its light-emitting surface covers part or all of the drying rod lifting control components, which can effectively shorten the non-light-emitting dimensions at both ends of the clothes drying machine, thereby increasing the proportion of the overall lighting area of ​​the clothes drying machine and achieving a lighting effect with large area and large angle light emission.

[0053] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the fixing member 23 is a sheet metal member with a folded edge structure, wherein one folded edge is fixed to the end of the top cover 21, and the drying rod lifting control member is fixed on the folded edge; the other folded edge is fixed to the bottom of the accommodating groove 222, thereby achieving the fixing of the frame 22 to the top cover 21.

[0054] Specifically, the folded edge connecting the fixing member 23 and the top cover 21 is defined as the first folded edge 231, and the folded edge connecting the frame 22 is defined as the second folded edge 232. The first folded edge 231 is provided with a through hole at the position opposite to the mounting hole 212 of the top cover 21. The fastener passes through the through hole and the mounting hole 212 and is fixed to the wall, so as to achieve the fixing of the fixing member 23 and the top cover 21. Then, the second folded edge 232 is fixed to the bottom of the receiving groove 222, so as to achieve the fixing of the fixing member 23 and the frame 22. The U-shaped side of the lighting module 10 is inserted into the mounting groove 221, so as to achieve the fixing of the lighting module 10 between the frames 22. At the same time, the second folded edge 232 can also be used to block the receiving groove 222, playing a sealing role, so as to prevent dust or mosquitoes from entering the interior of the receiving space through the installation gap between the frame 22 and the top cover 21, and affecting the stable operation of the power device and circuit board inside the receiving space.

[0055] Furthermore, the first folded edge 231 partially protrudes from the frame 22 for mounting the folding frame. The frame structure 20 is further provided with an end cover 24, which is arranged outside the first folded edge 231 and has an end fixed to the frame 22. Preferably, the end cover 24 and the frame 22 can be fixed by a locking member, a buckle structure, or the like.

[0056] As an example, the inner wall of the receiving groove 222 is provided with a buckle position 224, and the end of the end cover 24 is provided with a hook 241. When assembling the end cover 24, it is only necessary to vertically insert the end cover 24 along the plane where the first folded edge 231 is located toward the outer end surface of the frame 22, and the hook 241 is inserted into the receiving groove 222 and buckled with the buckle position 224, so as to achieve the fixed connection between the end cover 24 and the frame 22. This built-in buckle connection method can maintain the integrity of the appearance of the clothes drying machine.

[0057] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the inner wall of the receiving groove 222 is provided with a rib 223 having a certain width, and the buckle 224 protrudes from the end surface of the rib 223; as a match, the hook 241 is provided with a slide groove 242 that matches the rib 223, and the hook 241 is inserted into the receiving groove 222, and the rib 223 slides along the slide groove 242 until the buckle 224 is buckled with the hook 241. Through the further limiting of the slide groove 242 and the rib 223, the end cover 24 can be prevented from shaking, thereby improving the stability of the clothes drying machine.

[0058] Furthermore, the first folded edge 231 is provided with a roller fixing frame for fixing the roller. It is understandable that the roller fixing frame is partially or completely arranged inside the accommodating groove 222, which can shorten the protruding length of the first folded edge 231, thereby reducing the size of the end cover 24, and effectively shortening the non-light emitting area at both ends of the clothes drying machine, highlighting a more complete full-curved screen emitting surface. In this setting mode, when the folding frame is retracted, the end cover 24 can be completely covered, making the overall appearance of the clothes drying machine more complete.

[0059] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present application are:

[0060] (1) By arranging the curved light emitting body on the side of the curved light guide body, the light is guided out through the curved light guide body, thereby achieving uniform light output at a large angle;

[0061] (2) By arranging the curved light emitting body and the light guide body in the same plane, instead of the traditional arrangement of the light board and the lampshade at intervals, the effective utilization rate of the accommodation space between the lighting module and the top cover can be improved, the volume of the non-light emitting area on both sides of the clothes drying machine can be reduced, the proportion of the lighting emitting area of ​​the entire clothes drying machine can be increased, and the integrity of the clothes drying machine can be improved;

[0062] (3) By modularizing the lighting module, the overall structure is simple, which can prevent dust or mosquitoes from entering the light guide body to form shadows and affect user use;

[0063] (4) By inserting the U-shaped side of the lighting module into the frame, the light-emitting gap between the light-emitting body and the light guide plate is blocked by the frame, which can effectively avoid light leakage and improve the uniformity of light output;

[0064] (5) Modular lighting modules are used to simplify the structure of the frame and improve assembly efficiency.

[0065] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and the utility model is also intended to include these modifications and modifications.
