[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a foldable storage rack includes a connecting seat 1 and movable clothes rods 2 installed on both sides of the connecting seat 1. The connecting seat 1 is provided with a movable first hook 3, and the clothes rod 2 is provided with a movable second hook 17 on the outside, so that people can hang clothes at different angles.

[0028] The connecting base 1 shown has mounting parts 4 on both sides, and the clothes rod 2 has connecting parts 5 at both ends that are adapted to the mounting parts 4. The mounting parts 4 and connecting parts 5 are assembled together, and the connecting parts 5 on the inner side of the clothes rod 2 are movably connected to the mounting parts 4. The second hook 17 is movably connected to the connecting part 5 at the outer end and can rotate up and down. The clothes rod 2 can be folded or unfolded along one side of the connecting base 1, and can be used either unfolded or folded.

[0029] When the storage rack shown is folded, it is suspended by the first hook 3 at the upper end of the connecting seat 1. The hanging rods 2 on both sides are folded down from the outside along the inside with the mounting part 4 as the endpoint until the two hanging rods 2 are vertically downward. When not in use, they are folded up for storage, reducing the space occupied. The storage rack in the folded state can also be hung in the wardrobe through the first hook 3. Several clothes can be hung on each hanging rod 2 for clothing storage, which helps to make use of the space inside the wardrobe.

[0030] When the storage rack is unfolded, the second hook 3 rotates upwards to hang clothes on a rack, rod, or rope. The inner sides of the hanging rods 2 on both sides unfold outwards, allowing clothes to be hung for drying, thus functioning as a clothes rack. This storage rack can be unfolded for drying clothes or folded for storing clothes. After washing clothes, the two hanging rods 2 can be unfolded for use as a storage rack; after the clothes are dry, they can be folded for use as a storage rack, satisfying the multi-functionality and convenience of consumers. Consumers can switch between usage modes according to their needs, providing a good user experience.

[0031] The connection between the mounting part 4 and the connecting part 5 has the following three embodiments:

[0032] Example 1, as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting part 4 is groove-shaped, and the inner walls on both sides of the mounting part 4 are provided with protruding shafts 9. There is a certain gap between the two shafts 9. The connecting part 5 is hole-shaped and fits the shafts 8. The two shafts 8 are axially connected to the connecting part 5 from both sides. The mounting part 4 and the connecting part 5 are connected by a shaft connection, so that the clothes rod 2 can rotate up and down.

[0033] Example 2, as Figure 5 As shown, the mounting part 4 is groove-shaped, and a shaft post 9 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting part 4. The shaft post 9 extends from one side of the inner wall of the mounting part 4 to the other side. The connecting part 5 is hole-shaped to fit the shaft post 8, and a hollow part 10 is provided on the connecting part 5. The clothes hanging rod 2 is fastened into the shaft post 8 through the hollow part 9 on the connecting part 5. The clothes hanging rod 2 is detachably connected to one side of the connecting seat 1.

[0034] In the third embodiment, the mounting part 4 is hole-shaped, and the connecting part 5 is also hole-shaped. The clothes rod 2 can rotate up and down by interlocking the two holes.

[0035] The second hook 17 and the connecting part 5 can be connected in the following two embodiments:

[0036] Example 1, as Figure 6 As shown, the lower end of the second hook 17 is provided with a connecting post 11 that is adapted to the connecting part 5. The connecting post 11 is perpendicular to the second hook 17. The connecting part 5 is hole-shaped. The connecting post 11 is inserted into the connecting part 5 from the side. The second hook 17 is installed on the outer end of the clothes rack 2 by the connecting post 11 being inserted into the connecting part 5. It can rotate 360 ​​degrees and has a relatively simple structure.

[0037] Example 2, as Figure 1As shown, a movable block 7 is installed at the end of the second hook 17, and the second hook 17 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the movable block 7. A connecting hole 12 is provided on the movable block 7, and a cylindrical connecting post 11 adapted to the connecting hole 12 is provided at the end of the second hook 17. The second hook 17 is rotatable by the connecting post 11 passing through the connecting hole 12, allowing consumers to easily adjust the second hook 17 to different angles. An assembly groove 8 is provided at the lower end of the movable block 7. The assembly groove 9 is groove-shaped, and its inner wall has a protruding shaft post 9. The connecting part 5 is a hole-shaped part adapted to the shaft post 9. The rotation of the movable block 7 is achieved through a shaft connection, which in turn drives the second hook 17 to rotate.

[0038] The first hook 3 shown has a cylindrical connecting post 11 at its end, and the upper end of the connecting seat 1 has a connecting hole 12 adapted to the connecting post 11. The first hook 3 is rotatably installed in the connecting hole 12 through the connecting post 11.

[0039] The connecting post 11 shown includes a first connecting post 13 and a second connecting post 14, with a gap between them. Both the first and second connecting posts 14 have protruding limiting ends 15 at their ends, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the connecting hole 12. The connecting post 11 is made of a resilient plastic material. During insertion into the connecting hole 12, the two limiting ends 15 first squeeze into the hole, causing the first and second connecting posts 13 and 14 to close under force. After exiting the hole 12, the first and second connecting posts 13 and 14 return to their original shape due to their own rebound force. At this time, the limiting ends 15 abut against the lower end of the connecting hole 12 to prevent the hook 3 from falling off. A raised rib ring 16 is provided between the connecting post 11 and the hook 3. The diameter of the rib ring 16 is larger than the diameter of the connecting hole 12. The rib ring 16 abuts against the upper end of the connecting hole 12. The rib ring 16 and the limiting end 15 abut against the connecting hole 12 from the upper and lower ends respectively, further preventing the hook 3 from falling off during use. In all the embodiments described above, the connecting post 11 is of this type.

[0040] The clothes rack 2 shown has several evenly distributed hanging sections 6. The hanging sections 6 are used to hang clothes, increasing the stability of the hanging and making it less likely to fall. The hanging sections 6 include open hanging sections or closed hanging sections. The open hanging sections include grooves, and the closed hanging sections include holes of different shapes.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this invention, and no reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
