Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of shoe racks, and particularly refers to a shoe drying rack. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people buy more and more shoes. Each time they wash, they will wash many pairs of shoes at once. Therefore, the drying of shoes has become a big problem. First, generally, shoes are directly placed on the balcony for drying now. The balcony has limited space. Placing a row is not only unsightly but also takes up a large area. Second, the water in the shoes generally accumulates at the heel in the above-mentioned way of drying shoes and is not easy to flow out, resulting in difficulty in drying.

[0003] Therefore, shoe drying racks have emerged on the market. For example, in Chinese Patent CN202230211896.3, by setting up multiple drying seats with shoe hooks, shoes can be placed obliquely on the shoe hooks, effectively draining and drying the shoes. The above products meet the daily drying function, but there are still some deficiencies: a. The multi-layer shoe drying racks on the market adopt an iron art structure, which is integrally welded as a whole and occupies a large space; b. Some shoe drying racks adopt a detachable method. The middle support column and the drying seat are detachably connected by means of insertion. Each time the user uses it, they have to disassemble or install it. After multiple insertions and uses, the connection position between the support column and the drying seat is prone to looseness. Summary of the Invention
