Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically relating to a garment drying device with a water collection mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Clothing drying equipment is a mechanical device used to dry clothes and other items. After the clothes have been dehydrated, they can be dried by passing them through the drying device, which makes them more convenient for people to use and improves people's quality of life.

[0003] Existing drying equipment typically has a steam outlet directly at the top when drying clothes, causing scalding hot steam to escape directly, which poses a risk of scalding workers and has a high danger factor. It is also not easy to collect water dripping from the clothes inside, which will increase the difficulty of cleaning the inside in the long run. In addition, the clothes are generally stationary inside the drying box during the drying process, which not only prolongs the drying time and affects the drying efficiency, but also wastes power. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems mentioned above in the background technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a garment drying device with a water collection mechanism.

[0005] To achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A garment drying device with a water collection mechanism includes a movable base, a cylindrical drying chamber connected to the upper side of the movable base, an arc-shaped door hinged to one side of the cylindrical drying chamber, multiple heating plates evenly spaced and embedded in the inner wall of the cylindrical drying chamber, an end cap detachably connected to the end of the cylindrical drying chamber, a matching mounting plate and a drain plate sequentially connected to the inner wall of the cylindrical drying chamber, a motor connected to the mounting plate, a drive transmission rod connected to the output end of the motor, a drive gear connected to the outer wall of the drive transmission rod shaft, driven gears meshing on all four sides of the drive gear, driven gears connected to driven transmission rods, a connecting plate connected to the ends of both the drive and driven transmission rods, a garment placement bucket fixedly connected to the connecting plate, and the garment placement bucket having multiple air inlets;

[0007] The cylindrical drying oven is connected to an inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe on one side. An arc-shaped heat dissipation plate is connected to the outer wall of one end of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe, and a top transmission pipe is connected to the end of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe.

[0008] The cylindrical drying oven has a water collection chamber on the lower side of the connecting plate. A bottom transmission pipe and a one-way valve are connected to one side of the water collection chamber. A water collection tank is connected to the ends of the top transmission pipe and the bottom transmission pipe. The water collection tank is connected to the upper side of the movable base.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting plate has a heat insulation layer on its surface. This structural design can enhance the protection of the motor, drive gear, and driven gear.

[0010] Furthermore, the end cap has a slot on the upper side of the corresponding motor, and the slot is connected to a dustproof mesh cover. This structural design can ensure the heat dissipation requirements of the motor while providing dust protection.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the inner wall of the water collection cavity is provided with an inclined platform that slopes from one end to the other. This structural design can prevent water from accumulating in the water collection cavity.

[0012] Further specifying, both the active and driven transmission rods include a plug rod and a matching insert cylinder. The end of the plug rod is connected to a cylindrical block, and the insert cylinder has multiple insertion holes. A threaded rod connects the cylindrical block and the corresponding insertion hole. A reinforcing rib connects the insert cylinder and the connecting plate. U-shaped anti-slip rods are connected to both sides of the end of the plug rod. One end of the U-shaped anti-slip rod is rotatably connected to the mounting plate. The mounting plate has a matching rotating groove. This structural design facilitates the adjustment of the length of the active and driven transmission rods as well as the height of the garment storage bin.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model includes a movable base, a cylindrical drying box, a drain plate, a heating plate, an end cover, a water collection chamber, a mounting plate, a motor, a drive rod, a drive gear, a driven gear, a driven rod, a garment placement bucket, an inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe, an arc-shaped heat dissipation plate, and a water collection tank. The motor, as the power source, drives each garment placement bucket to rotate through various transmission components, so that the garments in each garment placement bucket are dried evenly from all angles, improving drying efficiency, shortening drying time, and saving power.

[0015] 2. Water dripping from the clothes in the garment storage bin flows into the water collection tank through the air inlet, drain plate, and water collection chamber, achieving the effect of automatically collecting water droplets from the clothes. The arc-shaped heat dissipation plate cools a section of the outer wall of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe, which can automatically liquefy and collect the high-temperature water vapor rising in the cylindrical drying oven into the water collection tank, preventing workers from being scalded, reducing the risk factor, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the cylindrical drying oven later.

[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] like Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model discloses a garment drying device with a water collection mechanism, including a movable base 1, a cylindrical drying box 2 connected to the upper side of the movable base 1, an arc-shaped door hinged to one side of the cylindrical drying box 2, multiple heating plates 201 evenly spaced and embedded on the inner wall of the cylindrical drying box 2, an end cap 202 detachably connected to the end of the cylindrical drying box 2, a matching mounting plate 3 and a drain plate 2001 sequentially connected to the inner wall of the cylindrical drying box 2, a motor 301 connected to the mounting plate 3, an active transmission rod 302 connected to the output end of the motor 301, an active gear 303 connected to the outer wall of the shaft of the active transmission rod 302, driven gears 304 meshing on all four sides of the active gear 303, driven gears 304 connected to driven transmission rods 305, a connecting plate 4 connected to the ends of the active transmission rod 302 and the driven transmission rod 305, and a garment placement bucket 401 fixedly connected to the connecting plate 4, the garment placement bucket 401 having multiple air inlets 402;

[0029] A cylindrical drying oven 2 is connected to an inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5 on one side. An arc-shaped heat dissipation plate 501 is connected to the outer wall of one end of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5, and a top transmission pipe 502 is connected to the end of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5.

[0030] The cylindrical drying oven 2 has a water collection chamber 203 on the lower side of the connecting plate 4. A bottom transmission pipe 204 and a one-way valve 2041 are connected to one side of the water collection chamber 203. A water collection tank 6 is connected to the ends of the top transmission pipe 502 and the bottom transmission pipe 204. The water collection tank 6 is connected to the upper side of the movable base 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, after the staff opens the arc-shaped box door, they place the clothes into the respective garment storage bins 401. After closing the arc-shaped box door, the heating plate 201 and motor 301 are activated by the central controller. During the process of the heating plate 201 heating the internal air to dry the clothes, the motor 301 drives the active transmission rod 302 and the active gear 303 at the output end to rotate. When the active gear 303 rotates, it drives multiple meshed driven gears 304 to rotate simultaneously. When the driven gears 304 rotate, they drive the driven transmission rod 305 to rotate. When the active transmission rod 302 and multiple driven transmission rods 305 rotate simultaneously, they drive each corresponding garment storage bin 401 to rotate, so that the clothes in each garment storage bin 401 are dried evenly from all angles, improving drying efficiency, shortening drying time, and saving power.

[0032] In addition, during the drying process, water dripping from the clothes in the garment placement tub 401 falls into the water collection chamber 203 through the air inlet 402 and the water leakage plate 4, and then flows into the water collection tank 6 through the water collection chamber 203, achieving the effect of automatically collecting the water droplets dripping from the clothes. The water vapor evaporated by the hot air from the damp clothes is transferred to the water collection tank 6 through the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5. When the high-temperature water vapor passes through the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5, the arc-shaped heat dissipation plate 501 on the outer wall of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5 cools one section of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5, so that the water vapor passing through the relative position is liquefied into water droplets. The water droplets drip down into the water collection tank 6 along the pipe trajectory of the inverted V-shaped steam transmission pipe 5 for collection. This structural design can automatically liquefy and collect the high-temperature water vapor rising in the cylindrical drying oven 2 into the water collection tank 6, preventing workers from being burned, reducing the risk factor, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the cylindrical drying oven 2 later.

[0033] Preferably, the surface of the mounting plate 3 is provided with a heat insulation layer. This structural design can enhance the protection of the motor 301, the driving gear 303, and the driven gear 304. In practice, other structural shapes that provide protection for the motor 301, the driving gear 303, and the driven gear 304 can also be considered depending on the specific circumstances.

[0034] Preferably, the end cover 202 has a slot 2021 on the upper side of the corresponding motor 301, and a dustproof mesh cover 2022 is connected to the slot 2021. This structural design can ensure the heat dissipation requirements of the motor 301 while providing dust protection. In fact, other structural shapes that can ensure the heat dissipation and dust protection requirements of the motor 301 can also be considered according to specific circumstances.

[0035] Preferably, the bottom of the inner wall of the water collection cavity 203 is provided with a ramp 2031 that slopes from one end to the other. This structural design can prevent water from accumulating in the water collection cavity 203. In practice, other structural shapes that facilitate drainage can also be considered depending on the specific circumstances.

[0036] Preferably, both the active drive rod 302 and the driven drive rod 305 include an insert rod 306 and a matching insert sleeve 307. A cylindrical block 3061 is connected to the end of the insert rod 306. The insert sleeve 307 has multiple insertion holes 3071. A threaded rod 3062 connects the cylindrical block 3061 and the corresponding insertion hole 3071. A reinforcing rib 2072 connects the insert sleeve 307 and the connecting plate 4. U-shaped anti-slip rods 308 are connected to both sides of the end of the insert rod 306. One end of the U-shaped anti-slip rod 308 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 3. The mounting plate 3 has a matching rotating groove. This structural design facilitates adjustment of the length dimensions of the active drive rod 302 and the driven drive rod 305, as well as the height dimension of the garment storage tub 401. In practice, other structural shapes that facilitate adjustment of the length dimensions of the active drive rod 302 and the driven drive rod 305 can also be considered depending on the specific circumstances.
