DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The specific implementation of a folding drying rack applied to a heat pump hot air blower provided by the present invention is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] A folding drying rack for a heat pump hot air blower, designed to be installed in a storage slot at the front end of the heat pump hot air blower housing, comprises a U-shaped support frame 1 and two sets of connecting frames; the left and right sides of the U-shaped support frame 1 are rotatably connected to the housing storage slot via a set of connecting frames.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the U-shaped support frame 1 includes two left and right side frames and a middle frame located between the two side frames; the outer side walls of the two side frames near the open ends are each provided with a rotating shaft 11; the inner side walls of the two side frames near the closed ends are symmetrically provided with two shaft seats 12.

[0027] Preferably, the connecting frame includes a first connecting rod 2 and a second connecting rod 3. Figure 2 As shown, a connecting ring 21 is provided at one end of the first connecting rod 2, and the first connecting rod 2 is sleeved on the axle seat 12 through the connecting ring 21, thereby realizing relative rotation with the side frame of the U-shaped support frame 1; the other end of the first connecting rod 2 is rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting rod 3 through the first connecting shaft 22, and the other end of the second connecting rod 3 is provided with a second connecting shaft 31.

[0028] Preferably, a first axial hole is provided on the inner side wall of the open end of the storage groove corresponding to the position of the rotating shaft 11, and the open end of the U-shaped support frame 1 is rotatably connected to the first axial hole of the storage groove through the rotating shaft 11; the closed end of the U-shaped support frame 1 is a free end; a self-locking part 4 is provided on the inner side wall of the closed end of the storage groove corresponding to the position of the second connecting shaft 31; the second connecting shaft 31 of the second connecting rod 3 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 41 of the self-locking part 4.

[0029] like Figure 3As shown, the self-locking member 4 includes a slide groove 41, a rectangular cavity 42, and a spring 43; the rectangular cavity 42 is provided on the side of the slide groove 41 away from the second connecting rod 3, and the spring 43 is installed inside the rectangular cavity 42; preferably, an angular stopper 44 is provided in the slide groove 41; one end of the spring 43 is elastically connected to the side wall of the rectangular cavity 42 away from the second connecting rod 3, and the other end is elastically connected to the side of the angular stopper 44 away from the second connecting rod 3. It is worth noting that in order to better meet the limiting function of the angular stopper 44 on the second rotating shaft 31, the spring 43 is made of a high-strength material with low elasticity, including but not limited to carbon steel, titanium alloy, aluminum alloy, etc.

[0030] Further preferably, the storage slot is adapted to the size of the U-shaped support frame 1; the sizes of the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 are both smaller than the side frame size of the U-shaped support frame 1, so that the folding drying rack can be completely stored inside the storage slot without taking up extra space.

[0031] Specifically, the method of using the folding drying rack includes:

[0032] When in use, lift the U-shaped support frame 1 upwards, driving the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 to unfold, at this time the second connecting shaft 31 slides downward along the slide groove 41, and at the same time presses the angle limit block 44 downwards to make the spring 43 elastically deform until the second connecting shaft 31 slides to the bottom of the slide groove 41, the spring 43 resets and drives the angle limit block 44 back to the initial position to complete the locking of the second connecting shaft 31; at this time the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 are fully extended (that is, on the same straight line), and the middle frame of the U-shaped support frame 1 is horizontally located in front of the air outlet of the heat pump hot air blower, Figure 4 As shown;

[0033] After use, the U-shaped support frame 1 is folded downward, thereby driving the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 to be folded. At this time, the second connecting shaft 31 moves upward from the bottom of the slide groove 41, and at the same time applies an upward force to the angle limit block 44, causing the spring 43 to deform. Until the second connecting shaft 31 moves to the top of the slide groove 44, the spring 43 resets and drives the angle limit block 44 to return to its initial position; at this time, the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 are all folded inside the side frame of the U-shaped support frame 1, and the drying rack can be folded as a whole and placed in the storage slot. Figure 5 shown.

[0034] The present invention provides a foldable drying rack for a heat pump hot air blower, which has a simple structure and is easy to install and store. The heat pump hot air blower can be used to dry clothes conveniently without the need to set up a separate clothes drying rack. While saving space, it can also save the cost of purchasing multiple household appliances and achieve multiple uses of one item. In addition, the use of the present invention to dry clothes in a hanging manner avoids the problem of wrinkles compared to traditional dryers.
