Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of clothes drying devices, and more particularly to a clothes drying rack and clothes drying machine. Background Technology

[0002] In some current clothes drying rack designs, to meet users' needs for drying small items such as socks and underwear, small horizontal bars with hooks or clips are usually provided. However, these hooks or clips on the horizontal bars are generally fixed and exposed. This leads to a problem: when the clothes drying rack is retracted, the hooks or clips are still clearly visible, which significantly detracts from the overall aesthetics of the retracted rack. Furthermore, if the horizontal bar is located between retractable drying rods, the presence of the hooks or clips will also occupy space, thus hindering the retraction of the retractable rods and preventing the retracted rack from shrinking effectively, affecting the space utilization efficiency and convenience of the clothes drying rack when stored. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model embodiment is to provide a drying rack and clothes drying machine that can solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] On the one hand, a drying rack is provided, including:

[0006] Two parallel drying racks;

[0007] The small horizontal bar includes a horizontal bar body and a clothing fastener. A receiving groove for accommodating the clothing fastener is provided on one side of the horizontal bar body. The clothing fastener is movably connected to the horizontal bar body. The two ends of the horizontal bar body are respectively rotatably connected to the two drying rods.

[0008] When the crossbar body is rotated so that the receiving slot faces upward, the clothing fastener automatically falls into the receiving slot. When the crossbar body is rotated so that the receiving slot faces downward, the clothing fastener automatically moves out of the receiving slot.

[0009] Optionally, one end of the garment fastener is rotatably connected to the crossbar body, and the garment fastener is rotated into or unfolded from the receiving slot.

[0010] Alternatively, one end of the garment fastener can be slidably connected to the crossbar body, and the garment fastener can slide into or unfold from the receiving slot.

[0011] Optionally, the drying rack includes a main pole and a telescopic pole, wherein the telescopic pole is telescopically installed on the main pole.

[0012] The small crossbar is installed between the main rods on both sides.

[0013] And / or, the small crossbar is installed between the telescopic rods on both sides.

[0014] Optionally, a small crossbar is installed between the telescopic rods on both sides, and the small crossbar can slide along the length of the telescopic rod.

[0015] Optionally, multiple small crossbars are provided between the telescopic rods on both sides, and a telescopic linkage assembly is provided on the telescopic rod. The two ends of the small crossbars are respectively rotatably connected to the telescopic linkage assemblies at both ends. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rods can drive the extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage assembly, and the extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage assembly can drive the small crossbars to disperse and converge.

[0016] Optionally, a rotary transmission structure is provided between the small crossbar and the telescopic linkage assembly. Through the transmission of the rotary transmission structure, the extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage assembly can drive the small crossbar to rotate. When the telescopic linkage assembly is fully extended, the receiving groove on the small crossbar faces downward, and when the telescopic linkage assembly is fully retracted, the receiving groove on the small crossbar faces upward.

[0017] Optionally, the rotary transmission structure can drive the small crossbar to rotate by an angle of 180°.

[0018] Optionally, an angle limiting structure is provided between the small crossbar and the telescopic linkage assembly, the angle limiting structure being used to limit the rotatable angle of the small crossbar to 180°.

[0019] Optionally, the rotary transmission structure is configured to drive the small crossbar to rotate at the extended end of the telescopic linkage assembly and at the retracted starting end of the telescopic linkage assembly.

[0020] Optionally, the rotary transmission structure includes a gear and a rack. The gear is disposed on the small crossbar, and the rack is disposed on the telescopic linkage assembly. Through the cooperation of the gear and the rack, the telescopic transmission of the telescopic linkage assembly drives the rotation of the small crossbar.

[0021] Optionally, the crossbar body includes a crossbar component and two rotating shafts respectively connected to both ends of the crossbar component, the rotating shafts being rotatably connected to the telescopic linkage assembly; the gear is disposed on the rotating shaft.

[0022] Optionally, the telescopic linkage component includes multiple telescopic rod sections that are connected in sequence, with each telescopic rod section connected to one end of one of the small crossbars, thereby enabling the telescopic linkage component to extend and retract, causing the small crossbars to disperse and converge.

[0023] Optionally, the two sides of the telescopic rod are provided with mounting grooves on their opposing sides. The inner wall of the mounting groove is provided with multiple guide grooves corresponding to each telescopic rod section. Each telescopic rod section is slidably installed in a different guide groove. The sliding of each telescopic rod section is guided by the guide grooves, thereby guiding the telescopic linkage assembly to extend and retract.

[0024] Optionally, each of the small crossbars has two telescopic rod sections rotatably connected to its two ends. Each of the small crossbars and the two telescopic rod sections connected to its two ends form a crossbar movable group. In any two adjacent crossbar movable groups, the gear in the previous crossbar movable group engages with the rack in the next crossbar movable group.

[0025] Optionally, the telescopic rod section is provided with a rotating connecting sleeve and the rack. In any of the crossbar movable groups, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the rotating connecting sleeve, so that the gear on the rotating shaft can cooperate with the rack on the next crossbar movable group.

[0026] Optionally, in any of the aforementioned crossbar movable groups, a first rotation limiting part is provided on the rotating shaft, and a corresponding second rotation limiting part is provided on the telescopic bar section. The first rotation limiting part and the second rotation limiting part are combined to form an angle limiting structure, which can limit the rotatable angle of the small crossbar to 180°.

[0027] Optionally, the gear includes a toothed portion and an anti-rotation protrusion. The toothed portion is used to engage with the rack, and the telescopic rod section is provided with an anti-rotation engagement portion. When the small crossbar is in the direction of the receiving groove facing upward, the angle limiting structure can restrict the forward rotation of the small crossbar. The engagement form between the anti-rotation protrusion and the anti-rotation engagement portion is configured such that when the small crossbar is in the direction of the receiving groove facing upward, the anti-rotation protrusion abuts against the anti-rotation engagement portion to restrict the reverse rotation of the small crossbar.

[0028] Optionally, the anti-rotation fitting part is configured as a convex strip extending along the length direction of the telescopic rod section, so that when the anti-rotation convex part abuts against the anti-rotation fitting part, the anti-rotation convex part can slide along the length direction of the anti-rotation fitting part.

[0029] Optionally, the telescopic rod section is also provided with an anti-detachment protrusion. The anti-detachment protrusion and the anti-rotation engagement part are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the rack. During the extension of the telescopic linkage assembly, when the small crossbar rotates to the receiving groove facing downward, the gear abuts against the anti-detachment protrusion to restrict the slippage of two adjacent telescopic rod sections.

[0030] Optionally, in the telescopic linkage assembly, the telescopic rod section closest to the main rod is provided with an elastic buckle, and the main rod is provided with a limiting part that cooperates with the elastic buckle. When the telescopic linkage assembly retracts, the limiting part can limit the elastic buckle, so that the clothing fastener of the small crossbar connected to the telescopic rod section closest to the main rod is retracted first, and then the telescopic rod section retracts.

[0031] On the other hand, a clothes drying rack is provided, including the aforementioned drying rack.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0033] 1) Enhanced aesthetics: By designing a crossbar body with a receiving slot and movable clothing fasteners, the clothing fasteners can automatically fall into the receiving slots when the drying rack is folded up, thus avoiding the problem of hooks or small clips being exposed in traditional drying racks, and greatly improving the overall aesthetics of the drying rack when it is folded up.

[0034] 2) Optimize space utilization: The clothing fasteners can be completely stored in the storage slot when not in use, without taking up extra space. This is especially important for the small crossbars installed between the retractable drying rods, ensuring that the retractable rods are not obstructed by the clothing fasteners when retracted, thereby maximizing the space utilization of the clothes dryer when it is in storage.

[0035] 3) Enhanced convenience: By rotating the main body of the crossbar to change the orientation of the storage slot, the unfolding and retraction of clothing fasteners can be achieved simply and quickly. This design is not only easy to operate, but also can handle multiple clothing fasteners at the same time, greatly improving the efficiency of drying and storage.

[0036] 4) Protect clothing fasteners: Storing clothing fasteners in the storage compartment can effectively prevent them from being damaged by the external environment, thereby extending the service life of the clothing fasteners. Attached Figure Description

[0055] To make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are further described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0056] In the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature being directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature being directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0058] In some current clothes drying rack designs, to meet users' needs for drying small items such as socks and underwear, small horizontal bars with hooks or clips are usually provided. However, these hooks or clips on the horizontal bars are generally fixed and exposed. This leads to a problem: when the clothes drying rack is retracted, the hooks or clips are still clearly visible, which significantly detracts from the overall aesthetics of the retracted rack. Furthermore, if the horizontal bar is located between retractable drying rods, the presence of the hooks or clips will also occupy space, thus hindering the retraction of the retractable rods and preventing the retracted rack from shrinking effectively, affecting the space utilization efficiency and convenience of the clothes drying rack when stored.

[0059] To address the above technical issues, such as Figures 1-15 As shown, a drying rack is now provided, comprising:

[0060] Two parallel drying rods 1;

[0061] The small horizontal bar 4 includes a horizontal bar body 41 and a clothing fastener 42. A receiving groove 411 for accommodating the clothing fastener is provided on one side of the horizontal bar body 41. The clothing fastener 42 is movably connected to the horizontal bar body 41. The two ends of the horizontal bar body 41 are respectively rotatably connected to the two drying rods 1.

[0062] When the crossbar body 41 is rotated so that the receiving slot 411 faces upward, the clothing fastener 42 automatically falls into the receiving slot 411. When the crossbar body 41 is rotated so that the receiving slot 411 faces downward, the clothing fastener 42 automatically moves out of the receiving slot 411.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, in the specific structure of the drying rack, in addition to the two parallel drying rods 1, there are also two crossbeams 2 connected between the ends of the two drying rods 1 respectively. That is, the two crossbeams 2 and the two drying rods 1 are connected to form a stable square frame structure.

[0064] The small horizontal bar 4 is installed between the two drying rods 1. It can be fixed or slidable. When slidable installation is used, the small horizontal bar 4 can be slid along the length of the drying rod 1 to adjust its position.

[0065] The drying rod 1 can be a fixed drying rod 1 or a telescopic drying rod 1. When a telescopic drying rod 1 is used, the small horizontal bars 4 can be installed between the telescopic rod bodies 12 or between the main rod bodies 11. When the small horizontal bars 4 are installed between the telescopic rod bodies 12, the small horizontal bars 4 need to be slidably installed relative to the telescopic rod bodies 12. When the telescopic rod bodies 12 are retracted, the small horizontal bars 4 can be gathered to the end of the main rod body 11; when the telescopic rod bodies 12 are extended, the small horizontal bars 4 can be spread out along the telescopic rod bodies 12 to provide a larger drying space.

[0066] like Figure 6 As shown, the small horizontal bar 4 of this solution includes a horizontal bar body 41 and a clothing fastener 42. The clothing fastener 42 is used to fasten clothing and can be configured as a hook or clip, etc., depending on the usage requirements. Two drying rods 1 are connected to both ends of the horizontal bar body 41, which serve as supports for the clothing fastener 42. Importantly, the clothing fastener 42 is installed on the horizontal bar body 41 in a movable manner, and the horizontal bar body 41 is provided with a receiving groove 411. When the clothing fastener 42 is needed, it can be extended from the receiving groove 411, allowing the user to easily fasten clothing. When not in use, the clothing fastener 42 can be retracted into the receiving groove 411, thus hiding the clothing fastener 42, providing protection, and preventing the clothing fastener 42 from being exposed, occupying space, and affecting aesthetics.

[0067] More importantly, this design configures the installation of the crossbar body 41 on the drying rod 1 as a rotating mechanism. In use, the receiving slot 411 of the crossbar body 41 faces downwards, and the clothing fasteners 42 automatically unfold downwards under gravity. When retraction is required, simply rotate the small crossbar 4 180° so that the receiving slot 411 faces upwards, and the clothing fasteners 42 are positioned above the crossbar body 41. Under their own gravity, the clothing fasteners 42 will automatically fall into the receiving slot 411 for retrieval. Typically, to provide more clothing fastening points, multiple clothing fasteners 42 are installed on a single small crossbar 4. This design uses the rotation of the small crossbar 4 for unfolding and retraction, enabling simple and quick unfolding and retraction of multiple clothing fasteners 42 on the small crossbar 4. Furthermore, the retrieved clothing fasteners 42 can be stably held in the receiving slot 411 under their own gravity, eliminating the need for additional complex locking structures. The rotation of the small crossbar 4 can be performed manually or automatically using an electrically driven rotation mechanism.

[0068] The drying rack provided in this embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0069] 1) Improved aesthetics: By designing a crossbar body 41 with a receiving groove 411 and a movable clothing fastener 42, when the drying rack is folded up, the clothing fastener 42 can automatically fall into the receiving groove 411 and be hidden. This avoids the problem of hooks or small clips being exposed in traditional drying racks, and greatly improves the overall aesthetics of the drying rack after it is folded up.

[0070] 2) Optimize space utilization: The clothing fastener 42 can be completely stored in the storage slot 411 when not in use, without taking up extra space. This is especially important for the small crossbar 4 installed between the telescopic drying rods 1, which can ensure that the telescopic rod is not obstructed by the clothing fastener 42 when it is retracted, thereby maximizing the space utilization of the clothes drying rack in the stored state.

[0071] 3) Enhanced convenience: By rotating the main body 41 of the crossbar to change the orientation of the receiving slot 411, the unfolding and retraction of the clothing fastener 42 can be achieved simply and quickly. This design is not only easy to operate, but also can handle multiple clothing fasteners 42 at the same time, greatly improving the efficiency of drying and storage.

[0072] 4) Protect clothing fastener 42: Storing clothing fastener 42 in the receiving slot 411 can effectively prevent it from being damaged by the external environment, thereby extending the service life of clothing fastener 42.

[0073] In one embodiment, one end of the garment fastener 42 is rotatably connected to the crossbar body 41, and the garment fastener 42 is rotated into the receiving groove 411 or unfolded from the receiving groove 411.

[0074] Alternatively, one end of the garment fastener 42 may be slidably connected to the crossbar body 41, and the garment fastener 42 may slide into or unfold from the receiving groove 411.

[0075] In the above embodiments, when a rotatably connected garment fastener 42 is used: one end of the garment fastener 42 is connected to the crossbar body 41 via a shaft, hinge, or other rotating device. This connection allows the garment fastener 42 to rotate at a certain angle relative to the crossbar body 41. When the receiving slot 411 faces downwards, the garment fastener 42 naturally droops and unfolds due to gravity, making it available for user use; when it needs to be folded up, the user only needs to rotate the crossbar body 41 180° so that the receiving slot 411 faces upwards. At this time, the garment fastener 42 rotates under gravity and falls into the receiving slot 411, thus achieving concealment.

[0076] When a slidable garment fastener 42 is used: one end of the garment fastener 42 is connected to the crossbar body 41 via a slide rail, slide groove, or other sliding device. This connection allows the garment fastener 42 to slide up and down relative to the crossbar body 41. When the receiving slot 411 is facing down, the garment fastener 42 naturally slides down and unfolds due to gravity, making it available for user use; when it needs to be folded up, the user only needs to rotate the crossbar body 41 180° so that the receiving slot 411 faces up. At this time, the garment fastener 42 automatically slides into the receiving slot 411 under gravity, achieving retrieval.

[0077] In both of the above embodiments, the user only needs to rotate the crossbar body 41 to unfold and fold the clothing fastener 42, making the operation simple and quick. Moreover, both embodiments have the advantages of being simple and easy to implement, requiring only the use of hinges or slide rails for connection.

[0078] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 3 The drying rod 1 includes a main rod body 11 and a telescopic rod body 12, wherein the telescopic rod body 12 is telescopically installed on the main rod body 11.

[0079] The small crossbar 4 is installed between the main rods 11 on both sides.

[0080] And / or, the small crossbar 4 is installed between the telescopic rods 12 on both sides.

[0081] The drying rack 1 consists of a main pole 11 and a telescopic pole 12. The main pole 11 serves as a fixed part, providing basic support for the drying rack. The telescopic pole 12 can extend and retract relative to the main pole 11, adjusting the overall length of the drying rack 1 to suit different drying needs. (Refer to...) Figure 1 In the specific structure of the drying rack, the two ends of the crossbeam 2 are respectively connected to the telescopic ends of the telescopic rod 12. When the telescopic rod 12 is unfolded, the crossbeam 2 can be pulled to simultaneously extend the telescopic rods 12 of the two drying rods 1. When retracting, the crossbeam 2 can be pushed to retract. This structure has the advantages of structural stability and ease of operation. In a further optimized structure, a guide rail bottom cover 3 is also connected between the ends of the two main rods 11. When used in a clothes drying rack, the drying rack needs to be connected to the lower guide rail of the telescopic bracket. Usually, the two ends of the lower guide rail of the telescopic bracket are connected to the main rods 11. In this structure, the guide rail bottom cover 3 can cover the lower guide rail, thereby optimizing the product appearance. Furthermore, the area of ​​the guide rail bottom cover 3 can be further enlarged so that the retracted small crossbar 4 and the crossbeam 2 are hidden on the guide rail bottom cover 3. This makes the overall integrity and appearance of the drying rack good when it is fully retracted. For details, please refer to the following. Figure 2 The state shown.

[0082] In practical applications, regarding the installation of the small horizontal bar 4, it can be installed between the two main poles 11, between the two telescopic poles 12, or both. This flexibility allows for more diverse designs of clothes drying racks, meeting the drying habits and space requirements of different users.

[0083] In one embodiment, combined with Figures 4-7 The small crossbar 4 is installed between the telescopic rods 12 on both sides, and the small crossbar 4 can slide along the length direction of the telescopic rod 12.

[0084] The drying rack 1 consists of a main rod 11 and a telescopic rod 12. The telescopic rod 12 can extend or retract into the main rod 11 as needed, thereby adjusting the overall length of the drying rack 1. A small crossbar 4 is installed between the two telescopic rods 12 and is designed to slide along the length of the telescopic rod 12. When the telescopic rod 12 is retracted, the small crossbar 4 can slide to the end of the telescopic rod 12, allowing the telescopic rod 12 to retract smoothly. When the telescopic rod 12 is extended, the small crossbar 4 can slide along the telescopic rod 12 to facilitate the spreading out of clothes for drying.

[0085] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 8 Multiple small crossbars 4 are provided between the telescopic rods 12 on both sides, and a telescopic linkage component 5 is provided on the telescopic rod 12. The two ends of the small crossbars 4 are rotatably connected to the telescopic linkage components 5 at both ends. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 12 can drive the extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage component 5. The extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage component 5 can drive the small crossbars 4 to disperse and converge.

[0086] The telescopic linkage component 5 functions to both bring the small horizontal bars 4 together when retracted and automatically disperse them at a fixed distance when extended. Specifically, when the user extends the telescopic rod 12, it drives the telescopic linkage component 5 to extend, which then disperses the small horizontal bars 4 at a set distance, facilitating the drying of clothes over a large area. When the user retracts the telescopic rod 12, it drives the telescopic linkage component 5 to retract, which in turn brings the small horizontal bars 4 together, making the entire drying rack compact when retracted. The telescopic linkage component 5 can be designed using existing technology, such as Chinese Patent CN221192657U, which discloses a telescopic clothes drying rack and an electric clothes drying rack, specifically disclosing various methods for the telescopic extension and retraction of the small horizontal bars 4, achieving the functions required in this embodiment.

[0087] Based on the telescopic linkage component 5, multiple small horizontal bars 4 can be simultaneously dispersed and gathered during the telescopic rod 12's extension and retraction. This obviously improves the ease of operation. At the same time, the telescopic linkage component 5 can improve the stability of the small horizontal bars 4 after they are extended.

[0088] In one embodiment, a rotating transmission structure is provided between the small crossbar 4 and the telescopic linkage component 5. Through the transmission of the rotating transmission structure, the telescopic linkage component 5 can drive the small crossbar 4 to rotate. When the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully extended, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces downward. When the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully retracted, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces upward.

[0089] When the telescopic linkage component 5 extends or retracts, it transmits power to the small horizontal bars 4 via a rotary transmission structure, causing the small horizontal bars 4 to rotate horizontally. This rotational motion not only disperses and gathers the small horizontal bars 4, but also allows the small horizontal bars 4 to adjust the orientation of their receiving slots 411 in the vertical direction. The orientation of the receiving slots 411 determines the unfolding and retraction of the clothing fasteners 42 arranged thereon. That is, the telescopic linkage component 5 can not only automatically disperse and gather the small horizontal bars 4, but also automatically rotate the small horizontal bars 4 to unfold and retract the clothing fasteners 42, enabling the user to complete the unfolding and retraction of all the small horizontal bars 4 and all the clothing fasteners 42 with a single operation.

[0090] Specifically, when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully extended, the rotary transmission structure ensures that the receiving slot 411 on the small horizontal bar 4 faces downwards, allowing the clothing fastener 42 on the small horizontal bar 4 to automatically unfold under gravity. When the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully retracted, the rotary transmission structure drives the small horizontal bar 4 to rotate to a position where the receiving slot 411 faces upwards, allowing the clothing fastener 42 on the small horizontal bar 4 to automatically retract into the receiving slot 411.

[0091] The rotary transmission structure may include a series of gears 4131, chains, ropes, or other transmission elements designed to generate rotary motion when the telescopic linkage assembly 5 extends or retracts. This rotary motion is transmitted to the small crossbar 4 through transmission elements (such as rotating shafts 413, bearings, etc.) connected to both ends of the small crossbar 4, causing it to rotate in a preset direction and angle.

[0092] Based on the above embodiments, users do not need to manually adjust the orientation of the receiving slots 411 of each small crossbar 4. They can achieve automatic adjustment simply by extending and retracting the telescopic rod 12, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.

[0093] In one embodiment, the rotary transmission structure can drive the small crossbar 4 to rotate by an angle of 180°.

[0094] Specifically, when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully extended, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces downwards; and when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully retracted, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces upwards. Considering that the small crossbar 4 has a 180° rotatable angle, its two extreme positions are upwards and downwards respectively. This allows the small crossbar 4 to automatically stop when it reaches the upward-facing extreme position of the receiving groove 411 during retraction, and to automatically stop when it reaches the downward-facing extreme position of the receiving groove 411 during expansion. The advantage of this design is that it avoids the small crossbar 4 rotating more than 360° during the telescopic linkage component 5's extension and retraction, preventing the clothing fastener 42 from continuously expanding and retracting, thus reducing the risk of the clothing fastener 42 colliding with other structures. Furthermore, during retraction, the small crossbar 4 can be accurately positioned at its rotational limit to keep the clothing fastener 42 in a retracted state; and during expansion, it can be accurately positioned at its other extreme position to keep the clothing fastener 42 in an expanded state.

[0095] In one embodiment, an angle limiting structure is provided between the small crossbar 4 and the telescopic linkage component 5, the angle limiting structure being used to limit the rotatable angle of the small crossbar 4 to 180°.

[0096] An angle limiting structure is installed between the small crossbar 4 and the telescopic linkage assembly 5. Its main function is to limit the rotatable angle of the small crossbar 4, ensuring that it rotates within a 180° range. The angle limiting structure can consist of structures such as limiting pins, limiting grooves, and stops. These structures are precisely designed and installed to ensure that the small crossbar 4 encounters resistance and stops rotating when it reaches 180°.

[0097] In one embodiment, the rotary transmission structure is configured to drive the small crossbar 4 to rotate at the extended end of the telescopic linkage component 5 and at the retracted starting end of the telescopic linkage component 5.

[0098] The rotary transmission structure is specifically designed to operate only when the telescopic linkage component 5 is extended to its end position. This means that the rotary transmission structure is activated only when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully extended, reaching near its maximum length, or when the telescopic linkage component 5 is initially retracted, thereby driving the small crossbar 4 to rotate. The advantage of this design is that the clothing fastener 42 on the small crossbar 4 only extends downwards when the telescopic linkage component 5 is in the extended state; otherwise, the clothing fastener 42 is retracted into the receiving groove 411. This avoids the risk of the clothing fastener 42 colliding during the movement of the small crossbar 4.

[0099] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 12The rotary transmission structure includes a gear 4131 and a rack 515. The gear 4131 is disposed on the small crossbar 4, and the rack 515 is disposed on the telescopic linkage assembly 5. Through the cooperation of the gear 4131 and the rack 515, the telescopic transmission of the telescopic linkage assembly 5 drives the rotation of the small crossbar 4.

[0100] When the telescopic linkage component 5 extends or retracts, its rack 515 moves accordingly. This movement causes the gear 4131, which meshes with the rack 515, to rotate. Since the gear 4131 is mounted on the small crossbar 4, the rotation of the gear 4131 drives the small crossbar 4 to rotate as well. Thus, the rotation angle of the small crossbar 4 can be controlled by the extension and retraction of the telescopic linkage component 5. This design combines the efficient transmission characteristics of the gear 4131 and the rack 515, enabling the rotary transmission structure to operate stably and reliably. Furthermore, this design has the advantages of simple structure, ease of manufacturing and maintenance, reducing production costs and ease of use.

[0101] In one embodiment, the crossbar body 41 includes a crossbar member 412 and two rotating shafts 413 respectively connected to both ends of the crossbar member 412. The rotating shafts 413 are rotatably connected to the telescopic linkage assembly 5. The gear 4131 is disposed on the rotating shafts 413.

[0102] The crossbar 412 is the main part of the crossbar body 41, and the receiving groove 411 is set on the crossbar 412. The crossbar 412 is mainly used to support the clothing fastener 42. Rotating shafts 413 are set at both ends to achieve a reliable rotatable connection with the telescopic linkage assembly 5. Gears 4131 are set on the rotating shafts 413. When gears 4131 mesh with racks 515, the telescopic linkage assembly 5 will push gears 4131 to rotate during extension and retraction. The rotation of gears 4131 will drive the rotating shafts 413 to rotate, thereby causing the crossbar 412 and the clothing fastener 42 on it to rotate. This design, with rotating shafts 413 at both ends of the crossbar body 41 to achieve rotatable installation at both ends, has the advantages of improving the smoothness of rotation and the reliability of the structure. By setting gears 4131 on the rotating shafts 413, the compactness and efficiency of the rotary transmission structure are achieved.

[0103] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 9 The telescopic linkage component 5 includes multiple telescopic rod sections 51 that are connected in sequence. Each telescopic rod section 51 is connected to one end of a small crossbar 4, thereby enabling the telescopic linkage component 5 to extend and retract, causing the small crossbars 4 to disperse and converge.

[0104] Each telescopic rod section 51 is connected to one end of a small crossbar 4, meaning that as the telescopic linkage assembly 5 extends or retracts, each small crossbar 4 moves accordingly. The connection between the small crossbar 4 and the telescopic rod section 51 is achieved through a suitable pivot 413.

[0105] In practical use, when the user controls the telescopic rod 12 to extend or retract, it will drive the telescopic linkage component 5 to extend or retract synchronously. When the telescopic linkage component 5 extends or retracts, each telescopic rod section 51 will move relative to each other, thereby changing the length of the entire component. Since each telescopic rod section 51 is connected to a small crossbar 4, the small crossbars 4 will also disperse or converge accordingly as the telescopic linkage component 5 extends or retracts. That is, this structure achieves the purpose of automatically driving the small crossbars 4 to disperse and converge as the telescopic rod 12 extends or retracts, thus simplifying the user's operation steps.

[0106] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 The telescopic rods 12 on both sides are provided with mounting grooves 121 facing each other. The inner wall of the mounting grooves 121 is provided with multiple guide grooves 122 corresponding to each telescopic rod section 51. Each telescopic rod section 51 is slidably installed in different guide grooves 122. The sliding of each telescopic rod section 51 is guided by each guide groove 122, thereby guiding the telescopic linkage assembly 5 to extend and retract.

[0107] The telescopic rods 12 on both sides are designed with mounting grooves 121 on the opposite side (i.e., the side facing each other). These mounting grooves 121 provide space for the installation and sliding of the telescopic rod section 51, which can hide and protect the telescopic rod section 51. When connecting, the pivots 413 at both ends of the small crossbar 4 extend into the mounting grooves 121 to connect with the telescopic rod section 51.

[0108] On the inner wall of the mounting groove 121, there are multiple guide grooves 122 corresponding to the telescopic rod sections 51. Each telescopic rod section 51 is slidably installed in a different guide groove 122. This means that each telescopic rod section 51 forms a tight sliding fit with its corresponding guide groove 122, thereby ensuring stability and accuracy during the telescopic process. The design of the guide groove 122 not only provides a sliding path for the telescopic rod section 51, but also plays a guiding role. It ensures that the telescopic rod section 51 moves along a predetermined direction during the telescopic process, avoiding deviation or jamming.

[0109] In summary, the installation slot 121 in this embodiment is used to install the telescopic linkage component 5, which can hide and protect the telescopic linkage component 5. The design of the guide slot 122 makes the telescopic rod section 51 more stable during the telescopic process, reducing the risk of displacement and jamming.

[0110] In one embodiment, combined with Figures 9-12Each of the small crossbars 4 has two telescopic rod sections 51 rotatably connected to its two ends. Each of the small crossbars 4 and the two telescopic rod sections 51 connected to its two ends form a crossbar movable group. In any two adjacent crossbar movable groups, the gear 4131 of the previous crossbar movable group engages with the rack 515 on the next crossbar movable group.

[0111] Each small horizontal bar 4, together with two telescopic rod sections 51 connected at both ends, forms a horizontal bar movable group. This means that each horizontal bar movable group contains a small horizontal bar 4 and two telescopic rod sections 51 connected to it. This enables the movement of the telescopic rod sections 51 within the same horizontal bar movable group to synchronously drive the movement of the small horizontal bar 4, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the small horizontal bar 4 to move to disperse or gather.

[0112] In any two adjacent moving parts of the crossbar, the gear 4131 of the preceding moving part of the crossbar engages with the rack 515 of the following moving part of the crossbar. This engagement means that when a moving part of the crossbar moves to the position where the gear 4131 and the rack 515 mesh, the rack 515 will drive the gear 4131 to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of rotating the small crossbar 4.

[0113] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 14 The telescopic rod section 51 is provided with a rotating connecting sleeve 514 and a rack 515. In any of the crossbar movable groups, the rotating shaft 413 is rotatably connected to the rotating connecting sleeve 514, so that the gear 4131 on the rotating shaft 413 can cooperate with the rack 515 on the next crossbar movable group.

[0114] A rotating connecting sleeve 514 is provided on the telescopic rod section 51. This rotating connecting sleeve 514 provides a rotating mounting point for the rotating shaft 413, allowing the rotating shaft 413 to rotate freely relative to the telescopic rod section 51 within a certain range, while maintaining the stability of the small crossbar 4 installation. The rack 515 is used to mesh with the gear 4131 of the small crossbar 4 on the adjacent crossbar movable group to drive the rotation of the small crossbar 4. Preferably, in the same telescopic rod section 51, the rack 515 and the rotating connecting sleeve 514 are respectively provided at both ends of the telescopic rod section 51.

[0115] In one embodiment, combined with Figures 11-13 In any of the movable crossbar groups, a first rotation limiting part 4132 is provided on the rotating shaft 413, and a corresponding second rotation limiting part 518 is provided on the telescopic rod section 51. The first rotation limiting part 4132 and the second rotation limiting part 518 are combined to form an angle limiting structure, which can limit the rotatable angle of the small crossbar 4 to 180°.

[0116] A first rotation limiting part 4132, which can be a protrusion or a groove, is provided on the rotating shaft 413 to cooperate with a second rotation limiting part 518 on the telescopic rod section 51. A corresponding second rotation limiting part 518, which is also a groove or a protrusion, is provided on the telescopic rod section 51 to match the first rotation limiting part 4132. When the rotating shaft 413 rotates within the rotating connecting sleeve 514 of the telescopic rod section 51, the first rotation limiting part 4132 and the second rotation limiting part 518 meet and mutually restrict each other. This cooperation ensures that the small crossbar 4 will not exceed a predetermined angle range during rotation.

[0117] Specifically, when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully extended, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces downwards; and when the telescopic linkage component 5 is fully retracted, the receiving groove 411 on the small crossbar 4 faces upwards. Considering that the small crossbar 4 has a 180° rotatable angle, its two extreme positions are upwards and downwards respectively. This allows the small crossbar 4 to automatically stop when it reaches the upward-facing extreme position of the receiving groove 411 during retraction, and to automatically stop when it reaches the downward-facing extreme position of the receiving groove 411 during expansion. The advantage of this design is that it avoids the small crossbar 4 rotating more than 360° during the telescopic linkage component 5's extension and retraction, preventing the clothing fastener 42 from continuously expanding and retracting, thus reducing the risk of the clothing fastener 42 colliding with other structures. Furthermore, during retraction, the small crossbar 4 can be accurately positioned at its rotational limit to keep the clothing fastener 42 in a retracted state; and during expansion, it can be accurately positioned at its other extreme position to keep the clothing fastener 42 in an expanded state.

[0118] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 11 The gear 4131 includes a toothed portion 41311 and an anti-rotation protrusion 41312. The toothed portion 41311 is used to engage with the rack 515. The telescopic rod section 51 is provided with an anti-rotation engagement portion 516. When the small crossbar 4 is in the direction of the receiving groove 411 facing upward, the angle limiting structure can restrict the forward rotation of the small crossbar 4. The engagement form between the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 and the anti-rotation engagement portion 516 is configured such that when the small crossbar 4 is in the direction of the receiving groove 411 facing upward, the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 abuts against the anti-rotation engagement portion 516 to restrict the reverse rotation of the small crossbar 4.

[0119] Since the rotatable angle of the small crossbar 4 is 180°, it is not required that the gear tooth 41311 be a full gear 4131 with a 360° rotation. As long as the central angle of the gear tooth 41311 is not less than 180°, it is sufficient to cooperate with the rack 515 to drive the small crossbar 4 to rotate 180°.

[0120] by Figure 11Taking the state shown as an example, let the telescopic rod sections 51 from left to right be section one and section two respectively. The rotating shaft 413 of the small crossbar 4 is rotatably connected to section two. The gear 4131 on the rotating shaft 413 can engage with the rack 515 on section one. In the state shown in the figure, it can be the process of section two extending or retracting relative to section one. During this process, the gear 4131 has not yet moved to the position of meshing with the rack 515. The receiving groove 411 of the small crossbar 4 faces upward, and the clothing fastener 42 on it is in the retracted state. Referring to the AA sectional view, during the sliding process of section one relative to section two, the anti-rotation fitting part 516 located below gear 4131 can limit the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 above, thereby restricting the reverse rotation of shaft 413 (i.e., counterclockwise rotation in the figure). Combining this with the BB sectional view, when the angle limiting structure rotates to its right limit position, it restricts the forward rotation of shaft 413 (i.e., clockwise rotation in the figure). Therefore, this structure achieves the rotational movement of the small crossbar 4 during the relative extension and retraction of telescopic rod sections 51 and before gear 4131 meshes with rack 515. Always locked, and in the locked state, the receiving slot 411 is always facing upwards, that is, the clothing fastener 42 is kept in the retracted state. This means that the clothing fastener 42 will only unfold downwards at the extended end or the retracted beginning end of the telescopic rod section 51, and the distance between the small crossbars 4 is the largest at this position. When the distance between the small crossbars 4 decreases, the clothing fastener 42 has already been retracted. This can avoid the problem of the clothing fastener 42 unfolding and causing impact damage during the retraction process, and at the same time avoid the problem of the clothing fastener 42 unfolding and causing all the small crossbars 4 to be difficult to retract completely.

[0121] In one embodiment, the anti-rotation fitting part 516 is configured as a convex strip extending along the length direction of the telescopic rod section 51, such that when the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 abuts against the anti-rotation fitting part 516, the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 can slide along the length direction of the anti-rotation fitting part 516.

[0122] The anti-rotation fitting part 516 is set as a convex strip, which means that when the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 abuts against the anti-rotation fitting part 516 and the rotational freedom of the shaft 413 is restricted, the anti-rotation protrusion 41312 can still slide relative to the surface of the anti-rotation fitting part 516, which ensures that the telescopic rod section 51 can continue to extend and retract normally.

[0123] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 13 The telescopic rod section 51 is also provided with an anti-detachment protrusion 517. The anti-detachment protrusion 517 and the anti-rotation mating part 516 are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the rack 515. During the extension of the telescopic linkage assembly 5, when the small crossbar 4 rotates to the receiving groove 411 facing downward, the gear 4131 abuts against the anti-detachment protrusion 517 to restrict the slippage of two adjacent telescopic rod sections 51.

[0124] Specifically, refer to Figure 13 When two adjacent telescopic rod sections 51 extend to their ends, the receiving groove 411 on the corresponding small crossbar 4 faces downward, and the clothing fastener 42 on it unfolds downward. Referring to the sectional view CC, the gear 4131 abuts against the anti-detachment protrusion 517, which realizes the function of preventing the two telescopic rod sections 51 from disengaging, ensuring that the entire telescopic linkage assembly 5 always maintains a stable and effective connection.

[0125] In one embodiment, in the telescopic linkage assembly 5, the telescopic rod section 51 closest to the main rod body 11 is provided with an elastic buckle 511, and the main rod body 11 is provided with a limiting part 111 that cooperates with the elastic buckle 511. When the telescopic linkage assembly 5 retracts, the limiting part 111 can limit the elastic buckle 511, so that the clothing fastener 42 of the small crossbar 4 connected to the telescopic rod section 51 closest to the main rod body 11 is retracted first, and then the telescopic rod section 51 retracts.

[0126] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, the telescopic rod section 51 closest to the main rod 11 is the rightmost telescopic rod section 51 in the figure, and the small crossbar 4 connected to it is the rightmost small crossbar 4 in the figure. After final retraction, this telescopic rod section 51 will retract into the main rod 11. Moreover, a guide rail cover 3 is usually connected between the ends of the two main rods 11, and after final retraction, all the small crossbars 4 will be placed above the guide rail cover 3. However, during the retraction process, the pushing force of the gear 4131 meshing with the rack 515 will create a certain resistance. Therefore, under normal circumstances, this telescopic rod section 51 is likely to retract into the main rod 11 first. If the clothing fastener 42 on the small crossbar 4 cannot be guaranteed to be retracted in advance during the retraction process, the sagging clothing fastener 42 is likely to collide and be damaged with the guide rail cover 3, and the retraction of the telescopic rod 12 may be hindered.

[0127] This embodiment cleverly incorporates an elastic buckle 511 on the telescopic section 51 closest to the main rod 11, while a limiting part 111 on the main rod 11 forms a matching fit, effectively overcoming the aforementioned problems. Specifically, with Figures 4-7Taking the orientation shown as an example, during the retraction process, the elastic buckle 511 is first located on the left side of the limiting part 111. The limiting part 111 can restrict the elastic buckle 511 from moving to the right, that is, restrict the telescopic rod section 51 from retracting to the right into the main rod body 11. At this time, the telescopic rod section 51 adjacent to it will retract first. When retracting, it will drive the small horizontal bar 4 to rotate to the receiving groove 411 facing upward, so as to first retract the clothing fixing part 42. When all the small horizontal bars 4 are gathered together and all the remaining telescopic rod sections 51 are retracted, the user continues to apply a pushing force, and can use a larger pushing force to overcome the elastic force of the elastic buckle 511, so that the elastic buckle 511 is compressed to the right and passes the limiting part 111, and finally all the telescopic rod sections 51 are retracted into the main rod body 11, so as to achieve the purpose of completely retracting the telescopic rod and all the small horizontal bars 4. In summary, based on this structure, the clothing fastener 42 on the small crossbar 4 can be retracted first, and then the last telescopic section can be retracted, thus avoiding the problem of the clothing fastener 42 colliding with the guide rail bottom cover 3.

[0128] In specific settings, it is necessary to ensure that the resistance provided by the elastic buckle 511 is greater than the resistance of the rack 515 in driving the gear 4131 to rotate and thus driving the small crossbar 4 to rotate.

[0129] The limiting part 111 can be a structure fixed to the end of the main rod 11, such as a guide rail fixing frame used to fix the lower guide rail.

[0130] In one embodiment, in the telescopic linkage assembly 5, a limiting block 512 is provided on the telescopic rod section 51 closest to the main rod body 11, and the main rod body 11 is provided with a limiting part 111 that cooperates with the limiting block 512. When the telescopic linkage assembly 5 extends, the limiting part 111 can provide a limit for the limiting block 512 to prevent the telescopic rod section 51 closest to the main rod body 11 from disengaging from the main rod body 11.

[0131] Specifically, also in Figure 8 Taking the state shown as an example, the limiting block 512 is located on the right side of the limiting part 111. During the extension of the telescopic linkage component 5, the limiting part 111 can always limit the limiting block 512 to the right side. This can avoid the problem of the entire telescopic linkage component 5 being completely pulled out in the unextended state, thereby ensuring that the telescopic linkage component 5 can extend smoothly during the extension of the telescopic rod, and ensuring that all the small crossbars 4 can be dispersed smoothly.

[0132] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 9 In order to ensure that the extended telescopic rod can smoothly bring out the telescopic linkage component 5 when it is extended, the end of the telescopic rod section 51 furthest from the main rod body 11 is provided with a hook 513. The hook 513 can be hooked to the extended end of the telescopic rod to ensure that the telescopic linkage component can be brought out synchronously when the telescopic rod is extended.

[0133] On the other hand, a clothes drying rack is provided, including the aforementioned drying rack.

[0134] The clothes drying rack in this embodiment typically includes a main unit and a telescopic bracket. The main unit is equipped with a lifting mechanism that connects downwards to the drying rack to drive it up and down. The telescopic bracket is generally a scissor bracket, which includes an upper guide rail and a lower guide rail. The upper guide rail is connected to the main unit, and the lower guide rail is connected to the drying rack. The telescopic bracket helps maintain the stability of the drying rack.

[0135] Based on the drying rack provided in this embodiment, the clothing fastener 42 on the small crossbar 4 of the clothes drying machine in this embodiment can be quickly retracted and unfolded. When the drying rack is closed, the clothing fastener 42 can automatically fall into the receiving slot 411 and be hidden. This avoids the problem of hooks or small clips being exposed in traditional drying racks and greatly improves the overall aesthetics of the clothes drying machine after it is closed.
