[0033] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary only for explaining the present disclosure and should not be construed as limiting the present disclosure.

[0034] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] The following will be combined with Figures 1-9 to illustrate the specific structure of the drying rod assembly 03 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0036] In a feasible embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the drying rod assembly 03 may include a first drying rod 1 and a second drying rod 2. Among them, the drying rod assembly 03 may include two first drying rods 1 arranged in parallel. On this basis, it may include at least one second drying rod 2; for example, one second drying rod 2 is arranged along one of the first drying rods 1, or one second drying rod 2 is arranged along each of the first drying rods 1 respectively. Optionally, after being pulled out, the second drying rod 2 on the same side as any one of the first drying rods 1 may include one or more. End caps 3 are respectively connected to both ends of each first drying rod 1, and movable rods 4 are respectively connected to both ends of the second drying rod 2. The first drying rod 1 and the second drying rod 2 can be cooperated through the end caps 3 and the movable rods 4.

[0037] Among them, the end cover 3 is provided with a fitting, and the fitting can be used to cooperate with the movable rod 4 to slide along the length direction of the end cover. Exemplarily, the fitting can be components such as a housing, a sliding groove, etc.; when the fitting is a housing, the housing cooperates with the end cover 3 to form a cavity for accommodating the movable rod 4. When the movable rod 4 is accommodated in the cavity, the first drying rod 1 and the second drying rod 2 are in the same vertical plane. Optionally, the first drying rod 1 and the second drying rod 2 are fixed-length rods. Figure 2 and Figure 9 FIG. Figure 9 shows a state diagram of pulling out the second drying rod 2 parallel to the width direction of the clothes dryer through the movable rod 4; it can be understood that, in order to more expand the drying space, the drying rod assembly 03 can include a plurality of first drying rods 1 and a plurality of second drying rods 2. Figure 2 and Figure 9 FIG. Figure 9 shows the structure of the drying rod assembly 03 provided with two first drying rods 1 and two second drying rods 2. When pulling out the second drying rod 2 in parallel, only one of them can be pulled out, or all of them can be pulled out at the same time.

[0038] Optionally, a clamping member can be arranged at the end of the fitting, and the clamping member cooperates with the end of the movable rod 4 far from the second drying rod 2 to prevent the movable rod 4 from being completely pulled out of the end cover 3 when pulling out the second drying rod 2 through the movable rod 4.

[0039] Among them, the second drying rod 2 is connected to the movable rod 4 through a fixing bracket 5. One end of the fixing bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the second drying rod 2, and the other end is movably connected to the movable rod 4. And a boss 51 is arranged at the end of the fixing bracket 5 embedded in one end of the movable rod 4. The movable rod 4 includes a first housing 41 and a fixing plate 42 arranged inside the first housing 41.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, taking the length direction of the second drying rod 2 as the first direction, the fixing bracket 5 can be nested and matched with the fixing plate 42 through the boss 51, and the dimension of the boss 51 in the first direction (the height of the boss 51) is greater than the dimension of the fixing plate 42 in the first direction (the thickness of the fixing plate 42), so that the fixing bracket 5 can move relative to the movable rod 4 along the first direction. Correspondingly, the second drying rod 2 can move relative to the movable rod 4 along the first direction. Exemplarily, as Figure 3 shown, in the cooperation between the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4, since the dimension of the boss 51 in the first direction is greater than the dimension of the fixing plate 42 in the first direction, there is a certain moving distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2. The design of this moving distance can effectively improve the smoothness of pulling out the second drying rod 2 and avoid the problem of being stuck due to uneven force when pulling out the second drying rod 2 and resulting in an unbalanced pulling angle.

[0041] Optionally, the value range of the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 is 0.5 mm - 1 mm. That is, if there is a movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2, the maximum value of this movable distance can be within the range of 0.5 mm - 1 mm. The dimensional difference between the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 in the first direction can be greater than or equal to the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the small distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 can achieve a better performance balance while maintaining the flatness of the appearance of the drying rod assembly 03, and can effectively improve the smoothness when the second drying rod 2 is pulled out. In one example, the dimensional difference between the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 in the first direction can be the same as the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2, or slightly larger than the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2. Exemplarily, considering that there may be slight differences in the fastening connection positions between the fixing bracket 5 and the second drying rod 2 under different products, to ensure the effectiveness of the dimensional difference setting between the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 in the first direction, when the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 are nested and fitted, a certain dimensional difference is set between the dimensional difference between the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 in the first direction and the movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2. For example, when the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 is set to 0.5 mm, considering that the position where the fixing bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the second drying rod 2 may shift, the dimensional difference between the boss 51 and the fixing plate 42 in the first direction is set to 0.8 mm. That is, when the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 is set within 0.5 mm - 1 mm, the dimension of the boss 51 in the first direction can be set to be larger than the dimension of the fixing plate 42 in the first direction, and this dimensional difference is greater than the value of the maximum movable distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2.

[0042] Optionally, such as Figure 1As shown, the first housing 41 is provided with a first through hole 411, and the fixing plate 42 is provided with a second through hole 421. Among them, the first through hole 411 is used for the embedding of the fixing bracket 5, and the second through hole 421 is used for the embedding of the boss 51. Among them, the minimum width of the cross-section of the second through hole 421 is greater than the maximum width of the cross-section of the boss 51 and less than the minimum width of the cross-section of the first through hole 411. Exemplarily, to reduce the assembly difficulty between the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4, the outer contour of the nested part of the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4 can be designed as a circle, and the boss 51 is also designed as a circle. On this basis, the first through hole 411 and the second through hole 421 are also circular through holes. Correspondingly, the diameter of the second through hole 421 is greater than the diameter of the boss 51, and the diameter of the second through hole 42 is less than the diameter of the nested part of the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4 and the diameter of the first through hole 411. In one example, in the case of satisfying the nested fit between the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4, the present disclosure embodiment does not limit the outer contours of the first through hole 411, the second through hole 421, the boss 51, and the nested part of the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4, and they can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0043] Optionally, as Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, the fixing bracket 5 may include a first embedding part 52 that cooperates with the first through hole 411 and a second embedding part 53 that cooperates with the second drying rod 2. Among them, the boss 51 is arranged at the end of the first embedding part 52. Exemplarily, the first embedding part 52 may be a cylindrical component to better cooperate with the first through hole 411 opened on the first housing 41 of the movable rod 4. Since the second embedding part 53 is directly nested with the second drying rod 2 and adapts to the shape of the second drying rod 2, the second embedding part may be set as a cuboid component.

[0044] In one example, to improve the connection stability between the fixing bracket 5 and the second drying rod 2, a nested bracket 6 is also arranged, and the structure of the nested bracket 6 is as Figure 6 shown. In the mating structure, as Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the second embedding part 53 is fixed inside the second drying rod 2 through the nested bracket 6. The longitudinal section of the second embedding part 53 and the nested bracket 6 is trapezoidal, and the outer contours of the cross-sections both cooperate with the outer contour of the cross-section of the second drying rod 2. Exemplarily, Figure 7 shows a schematic structural diagram of the cooperation between the fixing bracket 5 and the movable rod 4. In the structure shown in Figure 7 , the first embedding part 52 is embedded inside the movable rod 4, and the second embedding part 53 and the nested bracket 6 are nested with each other. Figure 8 shows a schematic structural diagram of the cooperation between the fixing bracket 5 and the second drying rod 2. In Figure 8In the structure shown, the second embedding part 53 and the nested frame 6 are embedded inside the second drying rod 2, and the first embedding part 52 protrudes from the second drying rod 2. Among them, the trapezoidal design of the longitudinal cross-section of the second embedding part 53 and the nested frame 6 can enable the second embedding part 53 to be better embedded in the second drying rod 2, and at the same time, the outer contour perimeter of the end of the second embedding part 53 close to the nested frame 6 can be expanded through the nested frame 6, so that the second embedding part 53 is in close contact with the second drying rod 2, improving the connection stability between the fixing frame 5 and the second drying rod 2.

[0045] Optionally, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, through holes for cooperating with the connecting piece 54 are provided on both the fixing frame 5 and the nested frame 6, and the fixing frame 5 and the nested frame 6 can be connected to the fixing piece 42 through the connecting piece 54. It can be understood that the connecting piece 54 is used as a fastening piece to realize the connection between the fixing plate 42 and the fixing frame 5. Exemplarily, the connecting piece 54 can be a screw, which is threadedly connected to the fixing frame 5 and the nested frame 6. The connecting piece 54 can also be a stud, a self-tapping screw, etc. It should be noted that, as Figure 1 shown, the connecting piece 54 is connected to the fixing frame 5 after the boss 51 passes through the second through hole 421 of the fixing plate 42, and the connecting piece 54 is not directly connected to the fixing plate 42.

[0046] In a feasible embodiment, a clamping member made of a soft material is arranged at the end of the boss 51. The minimum width of the cross-section of the clamping member is greater than the maximum width of the cross-section of the second through hole 421. When the boss 51 passes through the second through hole 421 of the fixing plate 42, the clamping member is in a deformed state and returns to its original state after the boss 51 passes through the fixing plate 42. Exemplarily, the clamping member can be a hemispherical part, the center of the sphere is connected to the boss 51, and the diameter of the clamping member is greater than the diameter of the second through hole 421. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, using the clamping member to realize the connection between the fixing member 5 and the fixing plate 42 can improve the assembly efficiency, and provide a certain damping and buffering effect on the cooperation between the two, reducing the wear of components caused by pulling out the second drying rod 2.

[0047] In a feasible embodiment, as Figure 4As shown, a reset member 541 is further disposed between the connecting member 54 and the fixing plate 42, or between the clamping member and the fixing plate 42. One side of the reset member 541 abuts against the connecting member 54 or the clamping member, and the other side abuts against the fixing plate 42. Optionally, the reset member 541 can be a spring, a conical spring, a pneumatic or hydraulic component, etc. Exemplarily, taking the reset member 541 as a conical spring as an example, the movement between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 is described: when the second drying rod 2 does not move under force, due to the arrangement of the reset member 541, the movement distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 can be made smaller; when a pulling force is applied to the second drying rod 2 in a direction away from the movable rod 4, the reset member 541 is compressed, and the movement distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 can be increased; when the second drying rod 2 is no longer under force, the reset member 541 resets, and drives the second drying rod 2 to move in a direction close to the movable rod 4 through the fixing bracket 5, so that the movement distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2 can be reduced, maintaining the cleanliness of the appearance of the clothes dryer. The arrangement of the reset member 541 is beneficial to improving the stability of the second drying rod 2 during daily use, avoiding horizontal shaking due to the design of the boss 51, and during the process of pulling the second drying rod 2, the arrangement of the reset member 541 can provide a flexible movement distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2, which is beneficial to improving the smoothness of the second drying rod 2 being pulled out.

[0048] Optionally, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 shown, to better realize the cooperation between the fixing bracket 5 and the fixing plate 42, the fixing bracket 5 can also be provided with a plurality of limiting members 55 at the same end where the boss 51 is arranged. Correspondingly, a plurality of third through holes 422 cooperating with the limiting members 55 can be opened on the fixing plate 42. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the cooperation between the limiting members 55 and the third through holes 422 can avoid affecting the assembly efficiency due to the rotation of the fixing bracket 5, and is beneficial to improving the stability between the fixing bracket 5 and the fixing plate 42.

[0049] Optionally, the movable rod 4 can further include a second housing 43, and the first housing 41 and the second housing 43 are connected by a snap structure. A stop member 412 is arranged inside the first housing 41, and the fixing plate 42 is fixed inside the first housing 41 through the second housing 43 and the stop member 412. During the assembly process, after the fixing plate 42, the first housing 41 and the fixing bracket 5 are connected by using the connecting member 54, the second housing 43 can be snapped on the outside of the movable rod 4 (the side away from the second drying rod 2). In one example, components for fixing the fixing plate 42, such as snap members, limiting members, etc., can also be arranged inside the first housing 41 to realize the relative fixation between the fixing plate 42 and the first housing.

[0050] Next, in combination with Figure 9 the specific structure of the clothes dryer provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described.

[0051] The clothes drying machine provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a main unit 01, a bracket assembly 02 and a clothes drying rod assembly 03 provided in the above embodiment. The bracket assembly 02 is connected to the main unit 01 and the clothes drying rod assembly 03 respectively.

[0052] Optionally, the main unit 01 and the bracket assembly 02 are connected by a steel wire rope, and the steel wire rope drives the bracket assembly 02 to be extended and retracted, thereby driving the drying rod assembly 03 to be raised and lowered.

[0053] For example, in the scene of hanging clothes, the first drying rod 1 can be a fixed-length rod for hanging clothes (such as Figure 9 As shown, the first drying rod 1 can also be provided with hanging parts for use with clothes hangers, such as hanging holes, etc.), the first drying rod 1 can also be called a clothes drying rod; the second drying rod 2 can be a fixed-length rod or a telescopic rod, which is used to hang large clothes, such as quilts, sofa cushions, etc. The second drying rod 2 can also be called a quilt drying rod.

[0054] In one example, if a telescopic rod is also configured at the end of the first drying rod 1, the telescopic rod can be driven to extend and retract through the end cap 3. Correspondingly, the second drying rod 2 can be configured as a telescopic rod, and can be synchronously driven to extend and retract through the end cap 3.

[0055] In the disclosed embodiment, a boss 51 is designed on the fixing frame 5, and the thickness of the boss 51 is designed to be greater than the thickness of the fixing plate 42, so that when the fixing frame 5 is nested with the fixing plate 42 through the boss 51, there is a certain distance between the movable rod 4 and the second drying rod 2, so as to effectively improve the smoothness of pulling out the second drying rod 2, solve the problem of jamming when pulling out the additional auxiliary drying rod in the prior art, and realize the flexible use of the additional auxiliary drying rod to expand the drying space.

[0056] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth", "1", "2", etc. (if any) in the specification and claims of the present disclosure and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present disclosure described herein can be implemented in an order other than that shown or described in the text.

[0057] The above description is only a partial implementation mode of the present disclosure. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present disclosure. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present disclosure.
