[0052] It should be understood that in other embodiments, when the first drying rod 400 is located in the storage position, the drying rod 420 may also be located above the end cover 100 .

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 The end cover 100 is provided with a slide 200, and the first airing rod 400 is connected with a sliding member 300. Specifically, the end of the connecting member 410 away from the airing rod 420 is connected with the sliding member 300; the sliding member 300 is movably arranged in the slide 200; wherein the slide 200 has a first end 201 and a second end 202, and the sliding member 300 can slide between the first end 201 and the second end 202, so that the first airing rod 400 is switched between the storage position and the deployment position, and when the sliding member 300 is located at the first end 201, the first airing rod 400 is located at the storage position, and when the sliding member 300 is located at the second end 202, the first airing rod 400 is located at the deployment position. Such a configuration ensures that the first airing rod 400 is easy to switch between the storage position and the deployment position.

[0054] Of course, in other embodiments, the end cover 100 is connected to the sliding member 300 , the connecting member 410 is provided with a sliding groove 200 , and the sliding member 300 is movably disposed in the sliding groove 200 .

[0055] The connection method between the connecting member 410 and the sliding member 300 includes but is not limited to threaded connection and integral molding.

[0056] Optionally, the clothes drying machine 010 further includes a main body, and the end cover 100 is assembled on the main body; specifically, along the length extension direction of the clothes drying rod 420, the end cover 100 is assembled on the end of the main body.

[0057] It should be noted that the above-mentioned host can be used to be assembled at an installation location such as a wall top. Of course, in other embodiments, the clothes drying machine 010 may not include a host, and the end cover 100 may be directly assembled at an installation location such as a wall top, that is, the clothes drying rod mechanism including the end cover 100 and the first drying rod 400 may be an independent product, or the clothes drying machine may not include a host, and the end cover 100 may also be assembled at an installation location such as a wall top through other brackets.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clothes drying rod mechanism includes two end caps 100, and the first clothes drying rod 400 includes two connecting members 410, which are connected to both ends of the clothes drying rod 420, and each connecting member 410 is connected to a sliding member 300, and the two sliding members 300 are slidably matched with the sliding grooves 200 provided in the two end caps 100. Such a configuration can ensure the stability of the first clothes drying rod 400 when switching between the storage position and the unfolded position.

[0059] Furthermore, the clothes drying machine 010 includes two first drying rods 400, each end cover 100 is provided with two slide grooves 200, and the two slide grooves 200 of each end cover 100 are respectively slidably matched with the sliding member 300 connected to one of the connecting members 410 of the two first drying rods 400, and the two first drying rods 400 are distributed on both sides of the width direction of the end cover 100. In this way, the two first drying rods 400 can be used for drying at the same time, so as to spread out large-sized objects such as quilts and ensure the efficiency of drying.

[0060] In order to improve the stability of the first drying rod 400 in the storage position; please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In this embodiment, the slide 200 further includes a bending portion 203 between the first end 201 and the second end 202; the first end 201, the bending portion 203 and the second end 202 are not on the same straight line, and the sliding path of the slider 300 between the first end 201 and the bending portion 203 does not overlap with the sliding path of the slider 300 between the second end 202 and the bending portion 203. When the slider 300 slides between the first end 201 and the second end 202 of the slide 200, the slider 300 needs to pass through the bending portion 203 to switch the sliding path. When the first drying rod 400 is in the storage position, even if the first drying rod 400 is accidentally hit, the slider 300 is not easy to slide over the bending portion 203, thereby ensuring the stability of the first drying rod 400 in the storage position and improving the problem that the first drying rod 400 is easily switched to the unfolded position after being accidentally hit.

[0061] Furthermore, the heights of the first end 201 and the second end 202 are both lower than the height of the bent portion 203. When the sliding member 300 is located at the first end 201 so that the first drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, the sliding member 300 is located at the first end 201 at a lower height position, and the sliding member 300 needs to be subjected to a larger force before sliding upwards and possibly crossing the bent portion 203, and it is not easy to slide the sliding member 300 upwards to leave the first end 201 when the drying rod 420 is accidentally hit, thereby ensuring the reliability of the first drying rod 400 being located at the storage position. When the sliding member 300 is located at the second end 202 so that the first drying rod 400 is located at the unfolded position, the sliding member 300 is located at the second end 202 at a lower height position, and the sliding member 300 needs to be subjected to a larger force before sliding upwards, so that the stability of the drying rod 420 suspended below the end cover 100 through the connecting member 410 can be improved, thereby ensuring the stability of drying using the drying rod 420.

[0062] Of course, in other embodiments, only the height of the first end 201 or the second end 202 may be smaller than the height of the bending portion 203 .

[0063] It should be noted that the height of at least one of the first end 201 and the second end 202 is lower than the height of the bending portion 203. Specifically, when the clothes drying machine 010 is in an assembled state, that is, when the clothes drying machine 010 is assembled at a location such as the top of a wall, along the vertical direction, the height of at least one of the first end 201 and the second end 202 is lower than the height of the bending portion 203.

[0064] It should also be noted that, in an embodiment in which the slide groove 200 is arranged on the connecting member 410, the height of at least one of the first end 201 and the second end 202 is lower than the height of the bending portion 203; specifically, when the clothes drying machine 010 is in an assembled state, that is, when the clothes drying machine 010 is assembled at a position such as the top of a wall, the first drying rod 400 is switched to the storage position, and at this time, the height of at least one of the first end 201 and the second end 202 of the slide groove 200 arranged on the connecting member 410 is lower than the height of the bending portion 203.

[0065] Furthermore, the slide groove 200 includes a first groove 210 and a second groove 220, and the first groove 210 and the second groove 220 are connected to both ends of the bending portion 203; the end of the first groove 210 away from the bending portion 203 is the first end 201, and the end of the second groove 220 away from the bending portion 203 is the second end 202. When the first drying rod 400 switches from the storage position to the deployment position, the sliding member 300 can slide in the first groove 210, the bending portion 203 and the second groove 220 in sequence; when the first drying rod 400 switches from the deployment position to the storage position, the sliding member 300 can slide in the second groove 220, the bending portion 203 and the first groove 210 in sequence.

[0066] Optionally, the first groove 210 is an inclined linear groove or an arc groove, and the height of the connecting end of the first groove 210 and the bending portion 203 is greater than the height of the first end 201. Such an arrangement ensures that the first drying rod 400 is labor-saving when being retracted and extended.

[0067] Optionally, the second groove 220 is an inclined linear groove or an arc groove, and the height of the connecting end of the second groove 220 and the bent portion 203 is greater than the height of the second end 202. This arrangement ensures that the first drying rod 400 is labor-saving when being retracted and extended; moreover, when the first drying rod 400 is switched to the unfolded position, under the action of the deadweight of the first drying rod 400, the sliding member 300 can be reliably located at the second end 202, which is conducive to ensuring that the two first drying rods 400 have a sufficiently large distance when they are in the unfolded position, so as to ensure a larger drying space.

[0068] Optionally, the bending portion 203 is a transition groove connected between the first groove 210 and the second groove 220, and the transition groove extends along the horizontal direction.

[0069] In order to further improve the stability of the first drying rod 400 in the storage position; please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6The clothes drying machine 010 of this embodiment further includes a bracket 500, which is connected to the end cover 100; when the first drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, the first drying rod 400 is supported by the bracket 500; specifically, when the first drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, the drying rod 420 is supported by the bracket 500, and the connecting member 410 is tilted, and the height of the drying rod 420 is higher than the height of the sliding member 300. By supporting the first drying rod 400 at the storage position by the bracket 500, the storage stability of the first drying rod 400 can be improved, and the problem that the first drying rod 400 is easily switched to the unfolded position after an unexpected collision can be improved.

[0070] Furthermore, the bracket 500 is provided with a support groove 511. When the first drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, the drying rod 420 is embedded in the support groove 511. The first drying rod 400 is configured to be able to move upward out of the support groove 511 and then switch to the extended position. Specifically, after the drying rod 420 moves upward out of the support groove 511, the drying rod 420 and the connecting member 410 can be synchronously switched to the extended position. Such a configuration further ensures the reliability of the first drying rod 400 being located at the storage position.

[0071] In order to increase the utilization rate and drying quantity of clothes drying machine 010; please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The clothes drying machine 010 of this embodiment further includes a second drying rod 600, which is connected to the bracket 500; the second drying rod 600 can be used to dry other clothes. Connecting the second drying rod 600 to the bracket 500 can also reduce the number of parts, which is conducive to reducing costs.

[0072] Furthermore, when the first air-drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, the first air-drying rod 400 is located above the second air-drying rod 600, and specifically, the connecting member 410 and the air-drying rod 420 are both located above the second air-drying rod 600. This arrangement can avoid the stored first air-drying rod 400 from interfering with the use of the second air-drying rod 600, and can ensure that the second air-drying rod 600 has better load-bearing properties.

[0073] Of course, in other embodiments, when the first drying rod 400 is located at the storage position, only the drying rod 420 is located above the second drying rod 600 .

[0074] Optionally, see Fig. 9 The second drying rod 600 is telescopically arranged on the bracket 500; with such an arrangement, the second drying rod 600 can be extended as needed, thereby making it more convenient to hang clothes on the second drying rod 600.
