Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of clothes dryer technology, and in particular to a clothes dryer main unit. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, clothes dryers on the market are household cleaning appliances that use hot air blown into the garment hood to instantly evaporate and dry the moisture in clothes. They are suitable for daily washing, care, and drying, and are especially suitable for use in humid areas or in weather conditions such as hazy or rainy seasons.
[0003] In existing dryers, the main drying unit is located at the bottom, and the clothes to be dried are placed in the clothes cover above the main drying unit. The main drying unit draws in cool outside air into the air duct, and then the cool air is heated by the heating element to form hot air, which is blown upwards. The hot air blows onto the clothes to be dried, causing them to gradually dry. The hot air is finally discharged from the exhaust vent on the clothes cover.
[0004] Currently, most dryer main units are quite large. Although they are detachable and installable, the installation process is cumbersome, and they occupy a significant amount of space after installation. Disassembly and storage are also difficult, failing to meet the current requirements for rapid drying and portability. To address this, some dryers have adopted a foldable body structure. Folding reduces the storage volume, while unfolding increases the drying capacity, resolving the contradiction between large drying capacity and small storage volume in existing technologies.
[0005] However, during the folding or unfolding process of the dryer, the internal cords will be pulled along with the movement of the machine body, causing the internal cords to stretch or contract, resulting in various problems such as cord tangling, snagging, cutting, and snagging. This not only easily damages the cords, but the cords can also affect the rotation of the machine body, preventing the dryer from rotating to the unfolded state or returning to the folded state.

The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", and similar terms as used herein only mean for the purpose of illustration and are not meant to be limiting.
[0092] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a clothes drying main machine, which comprises a fixed machine body 100 and a movable machine body 200, the movable machine body 200 is movably connected with the fixed machine body 100, so that the movable machine body 200 can move relative to the fixed machine body 100, thereby realizing unfolding and folding of the machine body.
[0093] Specifically, the movable machine body 200 is rotatable relative to the fixed machine body 100 about a rotation axis, and the movable machine body 200 is formed with a movable air outlet 250, when the movable machine body 200 is completely folded with the fixed machine body 100, as shown in Figure 1 , the movable air outlet 250 is located between the movable machine body 200 and the fixed machine body 100, in this way, the clothes drying main machine after folding can not only realize reduction of space, but also realize closing of the movable air outlet 250, thereby avoiding external dust and sundries from entering the movable air outlet 250 to cause blockage, and further affecting the air outlet effect.
[0094] When the movable machine body 200 rotates relative to the fixed machine body 100 by a certain angle, the clothes drying main machine can be in a half-open state, as shown in Figure 2 , then the movable machine body 200 continues to rotate, so that the clothes drying main machine can be in a fully open state, as shown in Figure 3 . In this way, during the movement of the movable clothes drying main machine relative to the fixed machine body 100, the orientation of the movable air outlet 250 will change with the movement of the movable clothes drying main machine 200, and when the clothes drying main machine is in a completely open state, as shown in Figure 3 , the clothes drying main machine is placed on a horizontal plane, the orientation of the movable air outlet 250 is a vertical direction.
[0095] In the actual use process of the clothes drying machine, the completely unfolded clothes drying main machine is arranged below the clothes cover of the clothes drying machine, so that the movable air outlet 250 can be directed to the clothes hung on the clothes cover, thereby the hot air discharged through the movable air outlet 250 can be used to dry the clothes on the clothes cover.
[0096] Referring to Figure 4In order to enable the movable air outlet 250 to discharge hot air, the movable heating module 240 and the movable air blower 251 and other components are arranged on the movable body 200, so that the air flow generated by the movable air blower 251 passes through the movable heating module 240 to be heated to form hot air, which is discharged from the movable air outlet 250.
[0097] In order to supply power to the movable heating module 240 and the movable air blower 251 and other components, the power supply module 140 is arranged on the fixed body 100, which is used to be connected with an external power source such as a power grid. In addition, the power supply module 140 is also electrically connected with the movable heating module 240 and the air blowing motor 260 for driving the movable air blower 251, so that the power of the power grid is distributed to the movable heating module 240 and the air blowing motor 260 through the power supply module 140.
[0098] The air blowing motor 260 is arranged on the fixed body 100 and connected with the movable air blower 251 on the movable body 200 through the transmission shaft 261. The transmission shaft 261 can move relative to the fixed body 100 with the movement of the movable body 200, so that the transmission shaft 261 can also realize the driving of the movable air blower 251 by the air blowing motor 260 after the movable body 200 moves relative to the fixed body 100.
[0099] It should be noted that the transmission shaft 261 can move relative to the fixed body 100 with the movement of the movable body 200, which means that the transmission shaft 261 can adapt to the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100 to ensure the transmission connection between the air blowing motor 260 and the movable air blower 251. In the embodiment of the application, Figure 4 In the embodiment of the application, the movable body 200 is rotatably arranged on the fixed body 100 about a rotation axis, and the axis of the transmission shaft 261 is coaxial with the rotation axis, so that the transmission shaft 261 can also rotate with the movable body 200 during the rotation of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100 to adapt to the position of the movable body 200. In other embodiments, when the movable body 200 is arranged on the fixed body 100 in a telescopic manner, the transmission shaft 261 can also extend and retract relative to the fixed body 100 with the movable body 200.
[0100] The movable heating module 240 is arranged on the movable body 200. If the movable heating module 240 is directly connected with the power supply module 140 through wires, the wires will move with the movable heating module 240 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, which will cause various problems such as wire pinching, wire hanging, wire cutting and wire tightening. Not only will the wires be easily damaged, but also the wires will affect the rotation of the movable body 200, which will cause the clothes drying main machine to be unable to rotate to the unfolded state or to be unable to recover to the folded state.
[0101] To this end, the fixed body 100 is provided with a fixed conductive structure 110, and the movable body 200 is provided with a movable conductive structure 210. The fixed conductive structure 110 and the power supply module 140 are electrically connected to each other through wires, and the movable conductive structure 210 and the movable heating module 240 are electrically connected to each other through wires. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the movable conductive structure 210 moves together with the movable body 200, and can move along the surface of the fixed conductive structure 110 and be electrically connected to the fixed conductive structure 110.
[0102] In this way, through the movement of the movable conductive structure 210 along the surface of the fixed conductive structure 110, the movable conductive structure 210 can be electrically connected to the fixed conductive structure 110 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the wires connecting the movable heating module 240 and the movable conductive structure 210 remain stationary relative to the movable body 200 and are not pulled by the movement of the movable body 200. In this way, while ensuring that the power supply module 140 and the movable heating module 240 are electrically connected to each other, various problems such as wire pinching, wire hanging, wire cutting, and wire tensioning are avoided, the normal movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100 is ensured, and the service life of the body is improved.
[0103] The above-described clothes drying main machine, through the movement of the movable conductive structure 210 along the surface of the fixed conductive structure 110, the wires inside the fixed body 100 and the movable body 200 can remain stationary and are not affected by the movement of the movable body 200 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100. On the basis of ensuring that the fixed body 100 and the movable body 200 are electrically connected to each other, various problems such as wire pinching, wire hanging, wire cutting, and wire tensioning are avoided, the normal movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100 is ensured, and the service life of the body is improved.
[0104] It should be noted that the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110 can be used to connect the power supply module 140 and the movable heating module 240, and can also be used to connect other components in the fixed clothes drying main machine and the movable clothes drying main machine. For example, in some embodiments, a display screen is provided on the movable body 200, and the display screen is electrically connected to the power supply module 140 through the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110.
[0105] In some embodiments of the present application, when the clothes drying main machine needs to be folded, the movable body 200 gradually approaches the fixed body 100 during rotation, i.e., from Figure 3 to Figure 2 Finally to Figure 1In the folding process, the movable air outlet 250 on the movable body 200 gradually changes from a vertical direction to a horizontal direction, and finally to a direction towards the fixed body 100.
[0106] To this end, the movable conductive structure 210 can also move to be separated from the fixed structure during movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, and when the movable conductive structure 210 is separated from the fixed structure, the power supply module 140 is also disconnected from the movable heating module 240, so that the movable heating module 240 no longer works, and the movable air outlet 250 blows natural wind.
[0107] When the clothes drying main machine is in the half-folded state, the air outlet of the movable air outlet 250 is directed horizontally or close to the horizontal direction, that is, Figure 2 The state of the clothes drying main machine, at this time, the hot air blown by the movable air outlet 250 can also be used for human body heating, that is, the clothes drying main machine is used as a hair dryer, improving the expansibility of the clothes drying main machine.
[0108] When the clothes drying main machine is in the half-folded state, if the movable body 200 is subjected to an external force, such as the user accidentally kicking the movable body 200, causing the movable body 200 to continue to move towards the fixed body 100 under the action of gravity, thereby causing the body to be in a completely folded state. At this time, since the user does not have time to turn off the switch of the clothes drying main machine, the movable air outlet 250 will continue to blow hot air, but since the clothes drying main machine has been completely folded, the hot air blown by the movable air outlet 250 will directly act on the inside of the body, causing the plastic parts inside the body to melt, affecting the normal work of the body.
[0109] In this way, when the movable body 200 moves within a certain angle range, the movable air outlet 250 of the movable body 200 can blow hot air to meet the user's heating needs, and by changing the angle between the movable body 200 and the fixed body 100, the orientation of the movable air outlet 250 can also be changed to meet the user's different angle heating needs.
[0110] When the movement of the movable body 200 exceeds a certain angle, the movable conductive structure 210 is separated from the fixed structure, and the movable heating module 240 is disconnected from the power supply module 140, so that the movable air outlet 250 no longer blows hot air, avoiding the hot air blown by the movable air outlet 250 damaging the internal parts of the body when the movable body 200 is too close to the fixed body 100.
[0111] Specifically, the movable body 200 is a movable end face that is spliced with the fixed body 100, and the fixed body 100 is a fixed end face that is spliced with the movable body 200. The angle formed between the movable end face and the fixed end face is α, where 0 ≤ α ≤ 180°. When α is greater than or equal to a preset value, the movable conductive structure 210 is connected to the fixed conductive structure 110; when α is less than a preset value, the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110 are separated.
[0112] The preset value can be 90°, or a value close to 90°, such as 80°. Thus, when α moves within the range of the preset value to 180°, the dryer is in an unfolded state, and the air outlet 250 blows air outwards from the dryer, preventing the hot air from affecting the fixed body 100. When α moves within the range of the preset value to 0°, the dryer is in a nearly folded state. At this time, the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110 are separated. Although the movable air outlet 250 faces the fixed body 100, the air blown out is cold, preventing the cold air from affecting the internal components of the fixed body 100.
[0113] In actual use, the temperature of warm air needed for human heating is generally not too high, while a higher temperature is required to achieve a good drying effect when drying clothes. Therefore, in some embodiments, the clothes dryer includes a first heating state and a second heating state. The heating power of the clothes dryer in the first heating state is greater than the heating power in the second state. As the movable conductive structure 210 moves relative to the fixed body 100 with the movable body 200, the clothes dryer can switch between the first heating state and the second heating state.
[0114] When the clothes dryer is placed on a horizontal surface and fully extended, it operates at its first heating power, i.e. Figure 3 As shown, at this time, α=180°, the movable air outlet 250 is completely facing the vertical direction, and the hot air blown out by the movable air outlet 250 is mainly used to dry the clothes inside the clothes cover. At this time, the heating power of the dryer is relatively large and the hot air temperature is relatively high to meet the drying needs.
[0115] When the dryer is half-folded, it operates at its second heating power setting, i.e. Figure 2 As shown, at this time 90 < α < 180°, the movable air outlet 250 is at a certain angle to the vertical direction, and the hot air blown out by the movable air outlet 250 is used for the user's heating. At this time, the heating power of the dryer is low and the hot air temperature is low, which meets the user's heating needs.
[0116] Specifically, in some embodiments, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 , Figure 5 ,Figure 6 and Figure 7 The fixed body 100 comprises a gear conductive sheet 120, and the movable body 200 comprises a switching conductive sheet 220. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the switching conductive sheet 220 contacts or separates from the gear conductive sheet 120. When the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are electrically connected, and the switching conductive sheet 220 is connected with the gear conductive sheet, refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The clothes drying main machine is in the first heating state; when the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are electrically connected, and the switching conductive sheet 220 is separated from the gear conductive sheet, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 The clothes drying main machine is in the second heating state.
[0117] That is, on the basis of the electrical connection between the power supply module 140 and the movable heating module 240, the adjustment of the power of the heating module is realized through the contact and separation of the switching conductive sheet 220 and the gear conductive sheet 120. Specifically, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 12 The movable body 200 comprises a movable heating module 240, and the movable heating module 240 comprises two movable heating pieces 241. Each movable heating piece 241 comprises a positive electrode and a negative electrode. Each negative electrode is electrically connected with the movable conductive structure 210. The positive electrode of one of the movable heating pieces 241 is electrically connected with the movable conductive structure 210, and the positive electrode of the other movable heating piece 241 is electrically connected with the switching conductive sheet 220.
[0118] In this way, when the clothes drying main machine is in the first heating state, one of the movable heating pieces 241 forms an electrical loop with the fixed conductive structure 110 and the power supply module 140 through the movable conductive structure 210, and the other movable heating piece 241 forms an electrical loop with the power supply module 140 through the switching conductive sheet 220 and the gear conductive sheet 120, so that both of the movable heating pieces 241 are connected to the circuit, and then both of the movable heating pieces 241 heat the air flow passing through them at the same time, and the temperature of the air outlet 250 is relatively high.
[0119] When the clothes drying main machine is in the second heating state, only the movable heating piece 241 that forms an electrical loop with the power supply module 140 through the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110 is working, and the other movable heating piece 241 does not form an electrical loop with the power supply module 140. At this time, only one movable heating piece 241 is connected to the circuit, so that only one movable heating piece 241 heats the air flow passing through it, and the temperature of the air outlet 250 is relatively low.
[0120] Further, in order to avoid interference between the lines, the fixed conductive structure 110 comprises a first fixed conductive sheet 111 and a second fixed conductive sheet 112 which are arranged along a first direction, and the movable conductive structure 210 comprises a first movable conductive sheet 211 and a second movable conductive sheet 212. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the first movable conductive sheet 211 moves along the surface of the first fixed conductive sheet 111, and the second movable conductive sheet 212 moves along the second fixed conductive sheet 112.
[0121] The first direction intersects the movement direction of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, so that the first movable conductive sheet 211 does not contact the second fixed conductive sheet 112 during the movement. In the embodiments of Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the movable body 200 is rotatable relative to the fixed body 100 about a rotation axis, and the movement direction of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100 is the circumferential direction of the fixed body 100, and the first direction is the radial direction of the rotation axis.
[0122] Further, referring to Figure 12 , the power supply module 140 has an X1 power supply terminal, an X2 power supply terminal and a zero line terminal, the X1 power supply terminal and the X2 power supply terminal are connected to the live wire of the external power grid, and the zero line terminal is connected to the zero line of the external power grid. The X1 power supply terminal is electrically connected to the first fixed conductive sheet 111, the X2 power supply terminal is electrically connected to the gear conductive sheet 120, and the zero line terminal is connected to the second fixed conductive sheet 112. The positive terminal of one of the movable heating elements 241 is electrically connected to the first movable conductive sheet 211, and the positive terminal of the other movable heating element 241 is electrically connected to the switching conductive sheet 220. The negative terminal of each movable heating element 241 is electrically connected to the second movable conductive sheet 212.
[0123] In this way, when the movable body 200 moves to the position where the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are in contact, and the switching conductive sheet 220 and the gear conductive sheet 120 are in contact, the current output by the X1 power supply terminal passes through the first fixed conductive sheet 111, the first movable conductive sheet 211, the positive terminal of one of the movable heating elements 241, the negative terminal of the movable heating element 241, the second movable conductive sheet 212, the second fixed conductive sheet 112 and the zero line terminal in sequence.
[0124] The current output by the X2 power supply terminal passes through the gear conductive sheet 120 and the switching conductive sheet 220 in sequence, enters the positive terminal of the other movable heating element 241, and is then output from the negative terminal of the movable heating element 241 and passes through the second movable conductive sheet 212 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 in sequence to the zero line terminal.
[0125] At this time, both movable heating elements 241 are connected to the circuit, and the two movable heating elements 241 heat the airflow at the same time, so that the temperature of the air outlet of the movable air outlet 250 is relatively high.
[0126] When the movable body 200 moves to the state that the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are in contact, and the switching conductive sheet 220 and the gear conductive sheet 120 are separated, the current of the X1 power supply terminal still passes through the corresponding movable heating element 241, but the X2 power supply terminal and the corresponding movable heating element 241 are disconnected, so that only one movable heating element 241 is connected to the circuit, and the single movable heating element 241 heats the airflow, so that the temperature of the air outlet of the movable air outlet 250 is relatively low.
[0127] It should be noted that in actual use, the number of fixed conductive sheets in the fixed conductive structure 110 can be selected according to actual use requirements, that is, it is not limited to the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112, and the fixed conductive structure 110 also includes a third fixed conductive sheet, a fourth conductive sheet, etc. The movable conductive structure 210 corresponds to the fixed conductive structure 110, and the fixed structure includes a plurality of fixed conductive sheets, and the movable conductive structure 210 has the same number of movable conductive sheets, each movable conductive sheet corresponds to one of the fixed conductive sheets, and each movable conductive sheet can move on the surface of the corresponding fixed conductive sheet and be electrically connected to the corresponding fixed conductive sheet during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100.
[0128] Specifically, referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 can move together between the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112. That is, the gap between the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 can be used to separate the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112, and also provide space for the movement of the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212, thereby reducing the space occupied by the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 and improving the compactness of the internal structure of the clothes drying main machine.
[0129] The first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 form a conductive space 115 therebetween, and the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 can enter or leave the conductive space 115 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100. Thus, when the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 leave the conductive space 115, the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are disconnected from each other, and when the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 enter the conductive space 115, the first movable conductive sheet 211 abuts against the first fixed conductive sheet 111, and the second movable conductive sheet 212 abuts against the second fixed conductive sheet 112, so that the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are connected to each other.
[0130] Further, the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 are arranged at an angle of the above-mentioned preset value, preferably 90°, with the rotation axis in the direction of movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, so that the fixed conductive structure 110 and the movable conductive structure 210 are disconnected from each other after the movable body 200 rotates by the preset value.
[0131] Specifically, referring to Figure 4 , Figure 13 , the fixed body 100 comprises a fixed housing 101, and a fixed conductive groove 102 is formed in the fixed housing 101 and extends longitudinally in the direction of movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100. The first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 are arranged on the two opposite side walls of the fixed conductive groove 102, and the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 can move in the fixed conductive groove 102 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100.
[0132] The first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 can be mounted on the inner wall of the fixed conductive groove 102 by adhesion or embedding, etc. Meanwhile, referring to Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 15 , in order to electrically connect the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the power supply module 140, a first fixed connecting hole 103 is formed in the inner wall of the fixed conductive groove 102, and the first fixed conductive sheet 111 has a first fixed extension 113 which extends through the first fixed connecting hole 103, so that the first fixed extension 113 can extend out of the fixed conductive groove 102 to be electrically connected to the X1 power supply terminal of the power supply module 140 by wires or plug-in connection.
[0133] Further, the inner wall of the fixed conductive groove 102 is provided with a second fixed connecting hole 104, and the second fixed conductive sheet 112 has a second fixed extension 114 which is arranged in the second fixed connecting hole 104, so that the second fixed extension 114 can pass out of the fixed conductive groove 102 to be electrically connected with the zero line terminal of the power supply module 140 by wire or plug-in.
[0134] Further, the bottom wall of the fixed conductive groove 102 is provided with a third fixed connecting hole 105, and the gear conductive sheet 120 is arranged in the fixed connecting hole, and a part of the gear conductive sheet 120 is located in the fixed conductive groove 102, so that this part can abut against the switching conductive sheet 220. Another part of the gear conductive sheet 120 extends out of the fixed conductive groove 102 to electrically connect the switching conductive sheet 220 and the X2 power supply terminal by wire or plug-in.
[0135] Part of the movable body 200 can extend into the interior of the fixed conductive groove 102 through the opening of the fixed conductive groove 102, so that the movable conductive structure 210 on the movable body 200 can be in contact with the fixed conductive structure 110. Specifically, the movable body 200 includes a mounting structure 201 which is inserted between the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and the fixed conductive sheet through the opening of the fixed conductive groove 102, the first movable conductive sheet 211 is arranged on the side of the mounting structure 201 facing the first fixed conductive sheet 111, and the second movable conductive sheet 212 is arranged on the side of the mounting structure 201 facing the second fixed conductive sheet 112. When the mounting structure 201 is inserted into the fixed conductive groove 102, the first movable conductive sheet 211 abuts against the first fixed conductive sheet 111, and the second movable conductive sheet 212 abuts against the second fixed conductive sheet 112.
[0136] Further, referring to Figure 17 , the mounting structure 201 includes a first mounting block 202 and a second mounting block 203 which are arranged along a first direction. One of the first mounting block 202 and the second mounting block 203 is provided with a switching conductive sheet 220 on the side facing the other, and the bottom wall of the fixed conductive groove 102 is provided with a gear conductive sheet 120. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the gear conductive sheet 120 can enter between the first mounting block 202 and the second mounting block 203 and abut against the switching conductive sheet 220.
[0137] Specifically, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 17 , Figure 18 and Figure 19The movable body 200 comprises a movable shell 204, a volute assembly 230 and a movable air duct 262 arranged on the movable shell 204. The volute assembly 230 comprises a volute 231 and a volute tongue 232, and a movable blower 251 is arranged in the volute assembly 230 to form an air flow in the volute assembly 230, which flows to the movable air duct 262 under the guidance of the volute assembly 230. A movable heating element 241 is arranged in the movable air duct 262, so that the air flow is heated by the movable heating element 241 during the flowing in the movable air duct 262. The movable air duct 262 is provided with a movable air outlet 250, and the heated hot air is discharged from the movable air outlet 250.
[0138] The first mounting block 202 and the second mounting block 203 are arranged on the outer wall of the volute assembly 230, and the mounting structure 201 is arranged on the outer wall of the volute assembly 230 to improve the utilization rate of the internal space of the clothes drying main machine. The first mounting groove 233 and the second mounting groove 234 are formed on the outer wall of the volute assembly 230, the first movable conductive sheet 211 is inserted into the first mounting groove 233 to fix the first movable conductive sheet 211 through the first mounting groove 233, and the second movable conductive sheet 212 is inserted into the second mounting groove 234 to fix the second movable conductive sheet 212 through the second mounting groove 234. Further, the third mounting groove 235 is formed on the side of the first mounting block 202 facing the second mounting block 203, and the gear conductive sheet 120 is inserted into the third mounting groove 235 to fix the gear conductive sheet 120 through the third mounting groove 235.
[0139] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 20 The fixed body 100 further comprises a fixed middle shell 161 arranged on the upper fixed shell 101, and the fixed middle shell 161 is provided with a fixed avoidance groove 130, which is in communication with the conductive space 115. During the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the movable conductive structure 210 moves in the conductive space 115 and the fixed avoidance groove 130, that is, after the mounting structure 201 and the movable conductive structure 210 on the mounting structure 201 leave the conductive space 115, the mounting structure 201 and the movable conductive structure 210 enter the fixed avoidance groove 130 to continue to move with the movable body.
[0140] Further, at least one of the opposite inner walls of the fixed avoidance groove 130 is provided with a fixed sliding sheet 131, and the movable conductive structure 210 is in contact with the at least one fixed sliding sheet 131 during the movement of the movable conductive structure 210 in the fixed avoidance groove 130, so that the contact between the fixed sliding sheet 131 and the movable conductive structure 210 reduces the friction of the movable conductive structure 210 in the fixed avoidance groove 130.
[0141] Specifically, the fixed avoiding slot 130 is provided with a fixed sliding sheet 131 on each of the two inner walls opposite in the first direction by means of bonding or embedding, one of the fixed sliding sheets 131 is capable of abutting against the first movable conductive sheet 211, and the other fixed sliding sheet 131 is capable of abutting against the second movable conductive sheet 212, so as to reduce the friction of the first movable conductive sheet 211 and the second movable conductive sheet 212 in the fixed avoiding slot 130.
[0142] wherein one of the fixed sliding sheets 131 is located on the same side as the first fixed conductive sheet 111 and has the same diameter as the first fixed conductive sheet 111, and the end portions of the two are in contact with each other, and the other fixed sliding sheet 131 has the same diameter as the second fixed conductive sheet 112, and the end portions of the two are in contact with each other.
[0143] In some embodiments of the present application, as known from the above, when the clothes drying host is arranged on a horizontal plane and the clothes drying host is in the first heating state, the movable air outlet 250 is directed towards the vertical direction for drying clothes. When the clothes drying host is arranged on a horizontal plane and the clothes drying host is in the second heating state, the movable air outlet 250 is directed towards the vertical direction for drying clothes. In some embodiments of the present application, in order to further improve the drying efficiency of the clothes, the fixed machine body 100 comprises a fixed air outlet 160, when the clothes drying host is in the first heating state, the fixed air outlet 160 has the same direction as the movable air outlet 250, so that when the clothes drying host is used for drying clothes, the fixed air outlet 160 can output hot air at the same time as the movable air outlet 250 to dry the clothes, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the clothes.
[0144] Further, in order to enable the fixed air outlet 160 to output hot air, the fixed machine body 100 further comprises a fixed heating module 150, the fixed heating module 150 is electrically connected to the zero line terminal, and the fixed heating module 150 is electrically connected to at least one of the X1 power supply terminal and the X2 power supply terminal. In this way, the fixed heating module 150 can also be powered by the power supply module 140, so that the fixed air outlet 160 can output hot air.
[0145] Specifically, the fixed heating module 150 comprises two fixed heating elements 151, each fixed heating element 151 comprises a positive electrode and a negative electrode, the positive electrode of one of the fixed heating elements 151 is electrically connected to the X1 power supply terminal, the positive electrode of the other fixed heating element 151 is electrically connected to the X2 power supply terminal, and the negative electrodes of the two fixed heating elements 151 are electrically connected to the zero line terminal.
[0146] In this way, the current output by the X1 power supply terminal not only passes through one of the movable heating elements 241, but also supplies power to one of the fixed heating elements 151, and the current output by the X2 power supply terminal not only passes through the other movable heating element 241, but also supplies power to the other fixed heating element 151.
[0147] In actual use, since the fixed heating elements 151 are directly connected to the power supply module 140, they are not affected by the on-off state of the movable conductive structure 210 and the fixed conductive structure 110, i.e., regardless of the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100, the fixed heating elements 151 are always in a working state.
[0148] To avoid the fixed heating elements 151 being in an open state when the clothes drying machine is folded, the power supply module 140 further includes an AC-L terminal for connecting to the live wire of an external power grid, and a circuit breaker for controlling the connection or disconnection between the AC-L terminal and the X1 power supply terminal and the X2 power supply terminal. That is, when the circuit breaker is closed, the X1 power supply terminal and the X2 power supply terminal are disconnected from the AC-L terminal, so that the entire clothes drying machine is in a power-off state, allowing the clothes drying machine to be folded normally. When the circuit breaker is open, the X1 power supply terminal and the X2 power supply terminal are connected to the AC-L terminal, and the fixed heating elements 151, the movable heating elements 241, etc. can work normally.
[0149] In some embodiments of the present application, the power supply module 140 further includes FAN1 and FAN2 terminals, and the AC-L1 terminal. The low-grade wiring of the blower motor 260 is connected to the FAN1 terminal, the high-grade wiring is connected to the FAN2 terminal, the common wiring is connected to the main board AC-L1, and the display board is connected to the power supply module 140 through the inter-board connection line.
[0150] Further, the fixed body 100 further includes a fixed housing 101, a fixed middle shell 161, a fixed blower 162, a fixed volute assembly 230 163, and a fixed air duct 164, all of which are arranged on the fixed housing 101. The fixed blower 162 is electrically connected to the blower motor 260 and forms an air flow in the fixed volute 231. The air flow passes through the fixed air duct 164 and is discharged from the fixed air outlet 160. The fixed heating elements 151 are arranged in the fixed air duct 164 to heat the air flow passing through the fixed air duct 164, and finally form hot air discharged from the fixed air outlet 160.
[0151] Furthermore, the fixed body 100 also includes a fixed temperature limiting element 121, which is connected to the neutral terminal and the negative terminals of the two fixed heating elements. The fixed temperature limiting element 121 is used to detect the temperature of each fixed heating element, and when the temperature of a fixed heating element is greater than or equal to a threshold, the fixed temperature limiting element 121 disconnects the connection between the neutral terminal and the negative terminal of the fixed heating element, thereby stopping the operation of the fixed heating element.
[0152] The movable body 200 also includes a movable temperature limiting element 242, which is connected to the second movable conductive sheet 212 and the negative terminals of the two movable heating elements. The movable temperature limiting element 242 is used to detect the temperature of each movable heating element, and when the temperature of the movable heating element is greater than or equal to a threshold, the movable temperature limiting element 242 disconnects the connection between the neutral terminal and the negative terminal of the movable heating element, thereby stopping the operation of the movable heating element.
[0153] The following combination Figure 6 , 8 10. The working process of the clothes dryer in one embodiment of this application will be described:
[0154] When the dryer is fully extended, as Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, at this time, the first fixed conductive sheet 111 abuts against the first movable conductive sheet 211, the second fixed conductive sheet 112 abuts against the second movable conductive sheet 212, and the gear conductive sheet 120 abuts against the switching conductive sheet 220. At this time, both heating elements inside the movable body 200 are connected to the circuit, thereby causing the movable air outlet 250 of the dryer to output hot air at a higher temperature.
[0155] When the dryer starts to fold, that is, when the dryer starts to fold... Figure 8 to Figure 10 At this time, the first fixed conductive sheet 111 abuts against the first movable conductive sheet 211, the second fixed conductive sheet 112 abuts against the second movable conductive sheet 212, and the gear conductive sheet 120 separates from the switching conductive sheet 220. At this time, only one movable heating element 241 in the movable body 200 is connected to the circuit, so that the movable air outlet 250 of the dryer outputs hot air at a lower temperature.
[0156] And when Figure 10 After the dryer continues to fold, the first fixed conductive sheet 111 will separate from the first movable conductive sheet 211, the second fixed conductive sheet 112 will separate from the second movable conductive sheet 212, and the gear conductive sheet 120 will separate from the switching conductive sheet 220. At this time, the movable heating element 241 of the movable body 200 will be completely disconnected from the circuit, so that the movable air outlet 250 of the dryer will output natural wind.
[0157] The above-mentioned dryer has at least the following advantages:
[0158] Through the movement of the movable conductive structure 210 along the surface of the fixed conductive structure 110, the wires inside the fixed body 100 and the movable body 200 can remain stationary and will not be affected by the movement of the movable body 200 during the movement of the movable body 200 relative to the fixed body 100.
