Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of clothes drying racks, and more specifically, it relates to a clothes drying mechanism that can be combined with multiple rods and stored vertically. Background Technology

[0002] Single-pole clothes drying racks are a simple and stylish type of clothes drying rack, and are widely used by users.

[0003] However, single-pole clothes drying machines, due to their simple structure and single rod, lack practicality. For example, Chinese invention patent CN117661281A discloses "A telescopic mechanism for a clothes drying rod and a clothes drying machine, belonging to the field of clothes drying machines. The telescopic mechanism for a clothes drying rod includes: a clothes rod with upper end caps at both ends; a quilt rod located below the clothes rod, with an inner rod assembly that can extend and retract to both ends inside the quilt rod, and lower end caps at both ends of the inner rod assembly; both the upper and lower end caps are open on their adjacent sides; and a retraction assembly including a trigger end and a limiting end. The trigger end is movable up and down within the upper end cap, with its top extending upwards outside the upper end cap and its bottom extending downwards into the lower end cap and detachably connected to it. This solution includes a retraction assembly that connects the clothes rod and the quilt rod, and all connecting parts in the retraction assembly are located between the upper and lower end caps, not exposed on the outside."

[0004] The existing technology described above has the following problems: it only has a single pole, which cannot adequately meet the drying needs of multi-person households; adding structures to the pole to add quilt drying rods would significantly increase the complexity of the entire clothes drying machine and raise manufacturing costs. Therefore, there is a need for a single-pole electric clothes drying machine with a simple structure that can coordinate multiple poles. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a drying mechanism that can be combined with multiple rods and stored vertically, which can achieve the coordinated use of multiple drying rods with a relatively simple structure.

[0006] This utility model discloses a drying mechanism that can be combined with multiple rods and stored vertically, comprising:

[0007] The main unit has multiple sets of traction components inside, and each set of traction components includes a driving component and two guide components;

[0008] A steel wire rope is wound on the output shaft of the drive component, and the winding and unwinding of the steel wire rope can be controlled by rotation; the two guide components are respectively installed at both ends of the main unit, and the two ends of the steel wire rope extend toward the two guide components respectively, and bend downward around the guide components until they extend to the bottom of the main unit;

[0009] The guide components in the multiple traction assemblies are all set on the same plane, and the guide components are evenly distributed from both ends of the main unit towards the middle of the main unit.

[0010] The drying poles are provided in the same number as the traction components. Both ends of the drying poles are connected to steel wire ropes extending from a single traction component. Multiple drying poles are arranged in a way that allows them to be stored from top to bottom.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, the dimensions of the plurality of drying rods are successively reduced from top to bottom; and except for the bottommost drying rod, the bottom of the plurality of drying rods is provided with a cavity that can accommodate the next level of drying rod.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the chamber includes a storage cavity, and multiple storage cavities can accommodate the drying rod below them.

[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, the guide members in the multiple sets of traction components each include a first fixed frame and a second fixed frame. Guide wheels are installed on the opposite side end faces of the first fixed frame and the first fixed frame. The two ends of the steel wire rope in the same group are respectively wrapped around the outer contours of the two guide wheels and bent downward along the outer contours until they extend to the bottom of the host.

[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the guide wheels of different groups of traction components are respectively set at different height positions.

[0015] As a further improvement of this utility model, the first fixing frame / second fixing frame in the multiple sets of traction assemblies is provided with an opening, which allows the wire rope in the other sets of traction assemblies to move.

[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model, both the upper and lower ends of the first fixing frame / second fixing frame are provided with bent ears, and the ears at the upper and lower ends are respectively installed on the inner walls of the upper and lower sides of the host.

[0017] As a further improvement of this utility model, the driving component includes a motor pair, and the motor pairs in the multiple sets of traction components are installed alternately.

[0018] As a further improvement of this utility model, a pressure wheel is connected to the output shaft of the motor assembly, and the wire rope is directly wound around the pressure wheel;

[0019] The steel wire ropes in the multiple sets of traction assemblies are evenly distributed in the height direction.

[0020] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: This solution incorporates multiple traction components within the main unit, namely multiple sets of motors, wire ropes, and guide wheels, each corresponding to multiple drying rods. Benefiting from the staggered height arrangement of the motors, wire ropes, and guide wheels, and the storage cavity at the bottom of the drying rods to accommodate the next level of drying rods, multiple drying rods can be raised and lowered simultaneously for drying without significantly increasing structural complexity, thus simplifying the production process. Furthermore, the drying rods can be stored from top to bottom during use, making their use more diverse and flexible. Attached Figure Description

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0034] Specific Implementation Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-9 A drying mechanism that can be combined with multiple poles and stored vertically includes: a main unit 11, which is equipped with multiple sets of traction components inside, each set of traction components including a driving component and two guide components;

[0035] A steel wire rope is wound on the output shaft of the drive component, and the winding and unwinding of the steel wire rope can be controlled by rotation; two guide components are respectively installed at both ends of the main unit 11, and the two ends of the steel wire rope extend toward the two guide components respectively, and bend downward around the guide components until they extend to the bottom of the main unit 11; the guide components in the multiple traction components are all arranged on the same plane, and each group of guide components is evenly distributed from both ends of the main unit 11 along the direction close to the middle of the main unit 11;

[0036] The drying poles are provided in the same number as the traction components. Both ends of the drying poles are connected to steel wire ropes extending from a single traction component. Multiple drying poles are arranged in a way that allows them to be stored from top to bottom.

[0037] It is understood that the above-mentioned traction assembly consists of: a drive unit and a steel wire rope connected to the output shaft of the drive unit, which can be wound and unwound by rotation; and guide members provided at both ends of the main unit 11 for guiding the steel wire rope, so that the steel wire rope can extend downward from the bottom of both ends of the main unit 11 to below the main unit 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, the traction assembly is provided in two sets, therefore, there are two wire ropes, including a first rope 12 and a second rope 13. The two ends of the first rope 12 and the second rope 13 extend downwards, resulting in a total of four rope segments extending downwards, which are respectively connected to the ends of the two drying rods. The bottom of the upper drying rod can accommodate the lower drying rod.

[0039] The dimensions of the multiple drying rods decrease sequentially from top to bottom; and except for the bottommost drying rod, each of the multiple drying rods has a cavity at its bottom to accommodate the next level drying rod. Each cavity includes a receiving cavity 16, and each of the multiple receiving cavities 16 can accommodate the drying rod below it.

[0040] It is understood that in this embodiment, the two drying rods include an upper rod 14 and a lower rod 15, with the upper rod 14 located on the upper side and the lower rod 15 located on the lower side. The storage cavity 16 is a cavity located at the bottom of the upper rod 14, with both ends extending downwards. The first rope 12 passes through the upper rod 14 and the storage cavity 16, extending downwards to be fixed to the lower rod 15. The second rope 13 is fixed to the top of the upper rod 14.

[0041] Each of the guide components in the multiple sets of traction assemblies includes a first fixed frame 21 and a second fixed frame 22. Guide wheels 26 are mounted on opposite end faces of the first fixed frame 21 and the first fixed frame 21. The two ends of the wire rope in the same set are respectively wrapped around the outer contours of the two guide wheels 26 and bent downwards along the outer contours until they extend below the main unit 11. The guide wheels 26 in different sets of traction assemblies are respectively positioned at different heights.

[0042] Understandably, by Figure 6 It can be seen that the two guide wheels 26 are respectively installed on the opposite end faces of the first fixed frame 21 and the second fixed frame 22, and each consists of a bracket and a wheel. The bracket is used to install the central axis of the wheel so that the wheel can rotate naturally. The guide wheels 26 on the first fixed frame 21 and the second fixed frame 22 are at different heights.

[0043] To further explain, the first fixing frame 21 is located on the outer side, therefore the guide wheel 26 on the first fixing frame 21 is at a higher height than the guide wheel 26 on the second fixing frame 22. The first rope 12 passes through the second fixing frame 22 and intersects directly with the outer circular surface of the guide wheel 26 on the first fixing frame 21, then passes around the outer circular surface of the guide wheel 26 and descends vertically until it extends to the lower side of the main unit 11 and connects with the lower rod 15.

[0044] The first fixing frame 21 / second fixing frame 22 in the multiple sets of traction assemblies has an opening, which allows the wire rope in the other sets of traction assemblies to move.

[0045] It is worth noting that, by Figure 6 As can be seen, the opening in this embodiment includes a rope hole 25, which is provided on the second fixing frame 22, allowing the first rope 12 connected to the first fixing frame 21 to pass through and move.

[0046] Both the upper and lower ends of the first fixing frame 21 and the second fixing frame 22 are provided with bent ears, and the ears at the upper and lower ends are respectively installed on the inner walls of the upper and lower sides of the main unit 11.

[0047] Understandably, by Figure 6It can be seen that the aforementioned folding lug includes a mounting plate 30, and the mounting plates 30 on the upper and lower sides are respectively connected to the inner top wall and bottom wall of the main unit 11 by screws. Therefore, each of the first fixing brackets 21 / second fixing brackets 22 is a component of the same size, differing only in the position of the guide wheel 26 and the rope hole 25, which facilitates the production and assembly of the first fixing brackets 21 / second fixing brackets 22.

[0048] The drive component includes a motor assembly 23, and the motor assemblies 23 in the multiple sets of traction components are installed alternately.

[0049] A pressure wheel is connected to the output shaft of the motor assembly 23, and the wire rope is directly wound around the pressure wheel; the wire ropes in the multiple sets of traction assemblies are evenly distributed in the height direction.

[0050] Understandably, by Figure 5 It is understood that, due to its large size, the motor assembly 23 can be staggered and fixed on the inner wall of the main unit 11, requiring only that the steel wire ropes connected to the motor assembly 23 be on the same straight line. Furthermore, the installation height of the motor assembly 23 connected to the first rope 12 is greater than that of the motor assembly 23 connected to the second rope 13, so that the heights of the first rope 12 and the second rope 13 are staggered.

[0051] In actual operation:

[0052] 1. State 1: When the lower rod 15 is retracted into the storage cavity 16 and the upper rod 14 is retracted into the main unit 11, the two drive motors 23 start rotating simultaneously, releasing the first rope 12 and the second rope 13. At this point, the upper rod 14 and the lower rod 15 lose the tension of the first rope 12 and the second rope 13 and descend naturally under their own weight. The upper rod 14 and the lower rod 15 then become a single unit, increasing the strength and load-bearing capacity of the upper rod 14. This allows for the hanging of heavier clothing.

[0053] 2. In the second state, based on the first state, the motor 23 can be further controlled to start rotating so that the first rope 12 is further relaxed. Thus, by the weight of the lower rod 15, it can be separated from the storage cavity 16 and descend further. At this time, clothes can be dried at the top of both the upper rod 14 and the lower rod 15. The user can flexibly control the distance between the upper rod 14 and the lower rod 15 according to the length of the clothes to be dried.

[0054] When it is necessary to rise, the two drive motor pairs 23 start to rotate simultaneously to retract the first rope 12 and the second rope 13 until the upper rod 14 and the lower rod 15 have both moved to their upper limit positions. At this time, the lower rod 15 is retracted into the storage cavity 16 and the upper rod 14 is retracted into the main unit 11.

[0055] Specific Implementation Example 2: Please refer to Figure 10 A drying mechanism that can be combined with multiple poles and stored vertically includes: a main unit 11, which is equipped with multiple sets of traction components inside, each set of traction components including a driving component and two guide components;

[0056] A steel wire rope is wound on the output shaft of the drive component, and the winding and unwinding of the steel wire rope can be controlled by rotation; two guide components are respectively installed at both ends of the main unit 11, and the two ends of the steel wire rope extend toward the two guide components respectively, and bend downward around the guide components until they extend to the bottom of the main unit 11; the guide components in the multiple traction components are all arranged on the same plane, and each group of guide components is evenly distributed from both ends of the main unit 11 along the direction close to the middle of the main unit 11;

[0057] The drying poles are provided in the same number as the traction components. Both ends of the drying poles are connected to steel wire ropes extending from a single traction component. Multiple drying poles are arranged in a way that allows them to be stored from top to bottom.

[0058] In this embodiment, the traction assembly is provided in three sets, so there are three steel wire ropes, with a total of six rope segments extending downwards, which are respectively connected to the ends of three drying poles.

[0059] In the case of specific embodiment one, the bottom of the upper rod 14 located on the upper side can be housed within the lower rod 15 located in the middle, and the lower rod 15 can be housed within the third rod 29 located at the bottom.

[0060] Similarly, four, five, or even six or more sets of drying racks and traction components can be installed.

[0061] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application 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 embraced within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims. Furthermore, it is clear that the word "comprising" does not exclude other units or steps, and the singular does not exclude the plural.
