For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0039] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a clothes drying machine of the utility model. Figure 3 and 4 As shown, it is a rope fixing mechanism 100 of the utility model, and Figure 4 , which is a schematic diagram of the cooperation between the rope fixing mechanism 100 and the rope 31 .

[0040] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The rope fixing mechanism 100 of the utility model is used to fix the clamp 32 at one end of the rope 31, and includes a fixing member 11 and a limiting member 12; the clamp 32 is matched in the fixing member 11, and the clamp 32 is limited by the limiting member 12 to achieve the fixing of the rope 31.

[0041] The fixing member 11 is provided with a mounting groove 111, and the mounting groove 111 has a first side wall 112 and a second side wall 113 opposite to each other in the vertical direction, the first side wall 112 is provided with a first through hole 114, and the second side wall 113 is provided with a second through hole 115, and the cross-sectional areas of the first through hole 114 and the second through hole 115 are smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the clamping member 32, so after the clamping member 32 enters the mounting groove 111, it cannot slide out from the first through hole 114 or the second through hole 115; the side wall of the fixing member 11 is provided with an opening 116 that is in communication with the mounting groove 111, and the opening 116 is used for the clamping member 32 to enter the mounting groove 111. The limiting member 12 is connected to the fixing member 11; one end of the limiting member 12 can extend into the mounting groove 111 to fix the clamping member 32 in the mounting groove 111.

[0042] In the actual assembly process, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the clamp 32 enters the installation groove 111 through the opening 116, and extends into the installation groove 111 through one end of the limiting member 12, so that the clamp 32 is limited between the first side wall 112 and the limiting member 12 or between the second side wall 113 and the limiting member 12; through this assembly method, no matter whether the rope 31 is facing the first side wall 112 or the second side wall 113, the clamp 32 can be fixed by the limiting member 12; thereby realizing the blind installation of the rope fixing mechanism 100, avoiding the situation where the clamp 32 cannot be fixed when installed backwards, and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0043] The rope fixing mechanism 100 of the utility model is further described below:

[0044] See also Figure 4 , the opening 116 includes a first wire entry hole 116a, a mounting hole 116b and a second wire entry hole 116c which are interconnected; the first wire entry hole 116a is connected to the mounting hole 116b and the first through hole 114, and the second wire entry hole 116c is connected to the mounting hole 116b and the second through hole 115. Specifically, the width of the first wire entry hole 116a and the second wire entry hole 116c is smaller than the width of the clamp 32, and the length of the first wire entry hole 116a and the second wire entry hole 116c is consistent, and they are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the mounting hole 116b; the length and width of the mounting hole 116b are both greater than the clamp 32, allowing the clamp 32 to pass through. During assembly, the clamp 32 enters the mounting groove 111 through the mounting hole 116b, and the rope 31 optionally enters through the first wire entry hole 116a or the second wire entry hole 116c, thereby achieving blind installation.

[0045] Furthermore, a connecting hole 117 is provided on the fixing member 11, and one end of the limiting member 12 enters into the mounting groove 111 through the connecting hole 117; specifically, the connecting hole 117 is aligned with the mounting hole 116b, such as Figure 6 As shown, one end of the stopper 12 extending into the mounting groove 111 moves to the mounting hole 116b and blocks the mounting hole 116b to prevent the clamping member 32 from being separated from the mounting hole 116b. The inner wall of the connecting hole 117 and the side wall of the stopper 12 are both provided with threads, and the stopper 12 and the connecting hole 117 are connected by threads to realize the assembly of the stopper 12 and the fixing member 11. In this embodiment, the stopper 12 is a bolt.

[0046] See also Figure 3 The rope fixing mechanism 100 of the present invention further includes a spring 13 sleeved on the outside of the rope 31 , one end of the spring 13 is used to abut against the clamp 32 , and the other end of the spring 13 is used to abut against the first side wall 112 or the second side wall 113 .

[0047] Specifically, when the rope fixing mechanism 100 is assembled, when the clamp 32 enters the installation groove 111 from the installation hole 116b, the spring 13 enters from the first wire entry hole 116a or the second wire entry hole 116c. After the assembly is completed, during normal use, one end of the clamp 32 is pushed by the spring 13, and the other end is supported by the limiter 12, so that the clamp 32 remains fixed relative to the installation groove 111 and is not easy to shake, thereby improving the connection stability between the rope 31 and the rope fixing mechanism 100. In addition, when the rope 31 is subjected to external tension, the spring 13 is compressed during the process, so as to prevent the clamp 32 from colliding with the first side wall 112 or the second side wall 113 and causing damage.

When the rope fixing mechanism 100 is applied to the clothes drying machine, the rope fixing mechanism 100 is fixed on the clothes hanger 400, and the clamp 32 is connected to the clothes hanger 400 through the rope fixing mechanism 100.

[0049] Specifically, the clothes hanger 400 is provided with an assembly hole 41. Specifically, the central axis of the assembly hole 41 is aligned with the central axis of the connecting hole 117. During assembly, the limiting member 12 passes through the assembly hole 41 and the connecting hole 117 in sequence and extends to the installation hole 116b.

[0050] Specifically, it also includes a lifting frame 500 and a driving device 600. The lifting frame 500 is connected to the fixed frame 200 and the clothes hanger 400 respectively. The driving device 600 is assembled on the fixed frame 200. The transmission end of the driving device 600 is connected to the end of the rope 31 away from the clamp 32. The driving device 600 drives the rope 31 to be retracted and released, and the length of the rope 31 is adjusted, and then the height of the clothes hanger 400 is adjusted, so as to realize the height adjustment function of the clothes drying machine, which is convenient for drying and collecting clothes. In this embodiment, the lifting frame 500 adopts a scissor-fork mechanical structure. The lifting frame 500 retracts or expands as the rope 31 is retracted and released, thereby improving the lifting stability of the clothes hanger 400.

The opening 116 is used for the clamping member 32 to enter the installation groove 111; the limiting member 12 is connected to the fixing member 11; one end of the limiting member 12 can extend into the installation groove 111 to fix the clamping member 32 in the installation groove 111; the clamping member 32 at one end of the rope 31 enters the installation groove 111 through the opening 116, and one end of the limiting member 12 extends into the installation groove 111 to limit the clamping member 32 between the first side wall 112 and the limiting member 12, or between the second side wall 113 and the limiting member 12; thereby realizing the blind installation of the fixing mechanism and improving the installation efficiency.

[0052] The above only expresses the preferred technical solution of the utility model, and its 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.
