[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the heat pump type shoe dryer in an embodiment of this utility model is shown; Figure 2A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a heat pump shoe dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The heat pump shoe dryer includes a housing 1, a variable frequency compressor 14, an evaporator 11, a condenser 13, and a circulating fan 12. The evaporator 11, the condenser 13, and the circulating fan 12 form a heat pump circulation system 10. Based on the heat pump circulation system 10, the ambient temperature inside the shoe dryer is regulated so that the working temperature of the shoe dryer can be maintained within a suitable working temperature range to meet the shoe drying requirements and avoid baking damage to the shoes.

[0022] Specifically, the top of the housing 1 is provided with a placement area 20, the heat pump circulation system 10 is installed in the placement area 20, the housing 1 is provided with a first partition 3 and a second partition 4, and a drying area 40 for accommodating the shoe body is formed between the first partition 3 and the second partition 4. The output end of the heat pump circulation system 10 is connected to the drying area 40 to meet the temperature regulation requirements of the drying area 40 of the shoe dryer.

[0023] Furthermore, the second partition 4 and the inner wall of the housing 1 form an air intake area 30, and the heat pump circulation system 10 dissipates heat through thermal effect and transfers it to the drying area 40, thereby heating and drying the shoe body.

[0024] Furthermore, based on the variable frequency compressor 14 installed in the placement area 20, the output power of the heat pump circulation system 10 can be adjusted under the control of the variable frequency compressor 14, thereby automatically adjusting the temperature of the shoe dryer, stabilizing heating and drying, and avoiding damage to the shoe body.

[0025] Specifically, the second partition 4 is provided with a plurality of baffles 43 and a plurality of air inlets 42. Based on the plurality of baffles 43, a plurality of independent air ducts are formed in the air inlet area 30. The plurality of air inlets 42 are arrayed and distributed in the plurality of independent air ducts. The independent air ducts are connected to the drying area 40 based on the air inlets 42, which enables the independent air ducts to deliver a stable air volume and enter the drying area 40 through the air inlets 42.

[0026] Specifically, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the circulating air duct in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The heat pump shoe dryer is provided with a circulating air duct. The circulating air duct passes through the placement area 20, the air inlet area 30 and the drying area 40 in sequence. The hot air output by the heat pump circulation system 10 can pass through the air inlet area 30 and be input into the drying area 40 through the air inlet hole 42 of the air inlet area 30, so that the hot air can act on the shoes to realize the drying operation of the shoes.

[0027] Furthermore, based on the array of air inlets 42 arranged in the several independent air ducts, the air inlet area 30 can uniformly deliver hot air to the drying area 40, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0028] Furthermore, the second partition 4 is provided with a plurality of hanging rods 41 on one side within the drying area 40. The plurality of hanging rods 41 are arranged one-to-one with one side of the plurality of air inlets 42, that is, the plurality of hanging rods 41 are arranged in an array, and the plurality of hanging rods 41 and the plurality of air inlets 42 are staggered. When the shoes are hung on the hanging rods 41, hot air can directly act on the shoes through the air inlets 42, achieving a good drying effect.

[0029] Specifically, the top of the drying area 40 is provided with a top plate 2, and a graphene heating element 7 is installed on the top plate 2. The graphene heating element 7 emits far-infrared rays during the heating process, which can penetrate microbial cells and destroy their internal structure. The active sites on the graphene surface can catalyze the generation of reactive oxygen species. Reactive oxygen species have strong oxidizing properties and can destroy the cell membrane and DNA of microorganisms, thereby achieving a sterilization effect.

[0030] Furthermore, a dehumidifying fan 5 is installed in the placement area 20 to reduce the humidity of the placement area 20. A fresh air inlet is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, which is connected to the drying area 40. When the dehumidifying fan 5 is working, the fresh air inlet can be opened simultaneously, allowing the dehumidifying fan 5 to extract and exhaust the air in the drying area 40 and the placement area 20. Based on the fresh air inlet, when the dehumidifying fan 5 extracts air from the drying area 40 and the placement area 20, it can also draw in fresh air from the outside, thereby timely dehumidifying the drying area 40 and the placement area 20, ensuring that the heat pump cycle system 10 operates in a dry and stable pressure environment, thus ensuring the normal operation of the heat pump cycle system 10.

[0031] This invention provides a heat pump type shoe dryer, which uses a variable frequency compressor 14 to control the output power of the heat pump circulation system 10 to heat and dry the shoes. It can accurately and effectively adjust the temperature of the shoe dryer, and utilize the heating characteristics of the graphene heating element 7 to perform deep sterilization and disinfection of the shoes, making it more efficient.

[0032] Furthermore, the above provides a detailed description of a heat pump shoe dryer provided by the embodiments of this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
