[0021] Embodiments of the application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary descriptions of the technical scheme of the embodiments of the application, and do not constitute a limitation on the technical scheme of the embodiments of the application.

[0022] It is to be understood that the terms "said", "the" and "that" as used herein, unless specifically stated otherwise, can also include plural forms. It should be further understood that the term "comprise" used in the specification of the present application means that the features, integers, steps, operations, elements and / or components described herein are present, but does not exclude the presence of other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and / or their combinations. The term "and / or" as used herein means at least one of the items, for example, A and / or B can mean "A" alone, or "B" alone, or "A and B".

[0023] For the purpose of making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0024] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the air-guiding clothes hanger of the present application comprises two housings A and A' which are mirror-symmetrical and are combined to form a cavity a. In the present embodiment, each of the housings A (A') forms a basic structure of a shoulder-shaped hanger, which comprises a cantilevered shoulder part 1, a neck part 2 connecting the two shoulder parts 1, and a hook part 3 extending upward from the neck part 2. The cavity a formed after the two housings A (A') are combined has an air inlet 4 at the neck part 2 and an air outlet 5 at the shoulder part 1, so that the gas entering the cavity a can flow from top to bottom. The air-guiding clothes hanger of the present application is equivalent to an independent shoulder-shaped hanger when used alone.

[0025] Further, the main body structure of each of the housings A (A') is integrally formed, i.e., the shoulder part 1, the neck part 2 and the hook part 3 of the housing A (A') are integrally formed, thereby reducing the splicing positions of the clothes hanger and improving the load-bearing capacity of the air-guiding clothes hanger of the present application. In addition, the integrally formed housing A (A') can reduce the opportunity of air permeation of the side wall of the cavity a, so that the gas injected into the cavity a can flow in the specified direction, reducing the loss.

[0026] The air inlet 4 is arranged at the top of the neck 2, on one hand, the width of the neck 2 can be configured to be larger than any of the shoulder 1, so as to guide more air through the neck 2 to meet the air outlet requirement of the two sides of the shoulder 1, on the other hand, the widened top of the neck 2 is easier to arrange the opening to align with the air supply device. In the embodiment, the air inlet 4 is formed by the two housings A (A') after being closed, each housing A (A') is recessed to form a gap at the corresponding position of the air inlet 4 relative to the closed edge, and the two gaps form a closed entrance structure after being closed. The air inlet 4 is also provided with an inclined opening matched with the air supply device, and in other possible embodiments, the air inlet 4 can be configured with an adapter fitting, so that the air guide type clothes rack of the application can be connected with other types of air supply devices. Further, the bottom of the shoulder 1 opposite to the air inlet 4 in the cavity a is provided with an air guide plate 6 for guiding the air from the air inlet 4 to the two sides to each air outlet 5, avoiding the turbulence of the air in the cavity a, and hindering the smoothness of the air flow. A possible embodiment is that the air guide plate 6 includes two mirror-symmetrical inclined plates 61, the top of the two inclined plates 61 is connected, and the bottom of the two inclined plates 61 respectively faces the corresponding shoulder 1, thereby forming a "chevron" type air guide structure. Adapted to the two closed housings A (A'), the air guide plate 6 can also be divided into two pieces according to the virtual closing line, arranged inside the two housings A (A'), and can be integrally formed with other structures of the housings A (A') to simplify the processing procedure.

[0027] The air outlet 5 is arranged at the shoulder 1. Considering that the upper surface of the shoulder type clothes rack is in close contact with the clothes when hanging the clothes, it is difficult to smoothly blow air if the air outlet 5 is arranged on the upper surface, and the clothes in the hanging state usually have faster drying progress at the upper part, so the application preferably arranges the air outlet 5 at the bottom of the shoulder 1, so that the air is more transported downward, enhances the downward flow of air in the clothes, and accelerates and balances the drying progress of the whole clothes. In the embodiment, the air outlet 5 is arranged as a circular hole, and is arranged in intervals on the virtual closing line, that is, each housing A (A') provides a semicircular component, and after the two housings A (A') are closed, a circular air outlet 5 is formed, or a plurality of circular air outlets 5 are arranged at the bottom of each housing A (A'), so that the air outlets 5 are arranged in intervals along the two sides of the closing line after the two housings A (A') are closed. In other embodiments, the air outlet 5 can also be arranged in a waist shape, a rectangular shape or other shapes that are beneficial to air guiding; the air outlet 5 can also be arranged on the side wall of the shoulder 1 to increase the direction of air diffusion.

[0028] The edges of the two shells A (A') are provided with interference-fitted snap structures, which can form a relatively simple sealing structure. Alternatively, the edges of one shell A (A') are provided with a full-encircling snap strip 7, and the edges of the other shell A (A') are provided with a full-encircling snap groove 8 capable of snapping the snap strip 7. The snap strip 7 can be inserted into the snap groove 8, and the frictional force between the two limits the snap strip 7 from being pulled out of the snap groove 8, thereby achieving the snap connection of the two shells A (A'). Further, in order to improve the connection strength or the sealing degree, a sealing ring or sealing adhesive can be filled between the snap strip 7 and the snap groove 8. In other embodiments, the snap strip 7 and the snap groove 8 can be arranged at intervals on the edges of the shells A (A'), which can meet the requirements of sealing and snap connection.

[0029] The outer contour structure of the shoulder portion 1 is used to support the shoulder of a shirt or the waist of trousers, so that the clothes can be hung in a state close to being worn. In order to adapt to different clothes, the outer structure of the shoulder portion 1 can also be improved in the following ways:

[0030] a. Increase clamps on both sides or below the shoulder portion 1, which are used to fix clothes that are inconvenient to hang through the shoulder portion 1, such as socks;

[0031] b. Increase a transverse connecting rod below the shoulder portion 1, which is used to hang clothes that do not have a shoulder portion 1 or a waist, such as a pillow shawl;

[0032] c. Increase hooks or groove structures on the shoulder portion 1, which are used to hang clothes that are easy to slip, such as a halter top;

[0033] d. Increase the outer contour of the end of the shoulder portion 1, which is used to reduce the creases on the clothes and also to expand the internal space of the clothes;

[0034] e. Change the extension direction of the shoulder portion 1, so that the end of the shoulder portion 1 is not coplanar with the neck portion 2, so that the air guide clothes hanger forms a three-dimensional curved surface structure, which is used to reduce the creases on the clothes and also to expand the internal space of the clothes.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present application, the air guide type clothes hanger is used as one of the air guide components of a clothes drying device, which further comprises a drying component. When the clothes are hung on the air guide type clothes hanger of the present application, the hot air generated by the drying component can directly or through a duct flow into the air inlet 4, and then flow downward in the clothes hung inside the air guide cavity a. During the process of flowing downward in the clothes, the hot air continuously exchanges heat with the moisture in the clothes, promotes the evaporation of the moisture from the inside of the clothes to the outside, and reduces the heat loss of the hot air under the blockage of the clothes, so that more heat is used for drying the clothes. Further, the clothes cannot completely block the heat loss of the hot air, and no other shielding structure is arranged outside the clothes to be dried, so as to avoid the risk of fire caused by heat accumulation.

[0036] The clothes drying device as described above can be integrated on an electric clothes drying machine, or directly use the hot air drying component integrated on the electric clothes drying machine, so that the air guide type clothes hanger of the present application is used as one of the drying components of the electric clothes drying machine, thereby improving the user experience of the drying function of the electric clothes drying machine.

[0037] In summary, the present application provides an air guide type clothes hanger, which comprises mirror-symmetrical housings that are combined to form an air guide cavity. Each of the housings comprises a cantilevered shoulder, a neck connecting the two shoulders, and a hook extending upward from the neck. The air inlet is arranged at the neck, and the air outlet is arranged at the shoulder. The present application also provides a clothes drying device using the air guide type clothes hanger, and an electric clothes drying machine using the clothes drying device or the air guide type clothes hanger. The air guide type clothes hanger of the present application not only has the structure and function of a general shoulder type clothes hanger, but also has the air guide function, which can guide the hot air to flow from the inside to the outside of the clothes hung, reduce the energy loss of the hot air, and improve the drying efficiency.
