Detailed Implementation

[0026] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a multi-functional clothes hanger for a garment steamer includes a base 10. Two movable rods 11 are slidably arranged on the upper surface of the base 10. A second telescopic rod 34 is arranged between the two movable rods 11. A first telescopic rod 14 is rotatably arranged above each movable rod 11. A hanging arm 15 is provided at the output end of each first telescopic rod 14. A connecting rod 16 is slidably arranged between the two hanging arms 15. A winding assembly is arranged between the two movable rods 11. An ironing cloth 21 is arranged between the winding assembly and the connecting rod 16. Multiple snap fasteners 23 are provided on the outside of each first telescopic rod 14. One end of each snap fastener 23 is snapped into the outer edge of the ironing cloth 21. Both the first telescopic rod 14 and the second telescopic rod 34 are telescopic rods with self-locking function, which is the prior art.

[0029] Specifically, by adjusting the distance between the two moving rods 11 and adjusting the extension length of the first telescopic rod 14, the size of the entire clothes hanger can be adjusted, thereby enabling ironing of clothes of different sizes.

[0030] The second telescopic rod 34 can further increase the structural strength of the clothes hanger. At the same time, the second telescopic rod 34 can also provide further support for the ironing cloth 21, effectively improving the flatness of the ironing cloth 21 and improving the ironing effect of the clothes.

[0031] The ironing cloth 21 is made of elastic and stretchable fabric. The outer edge of the ironing cloth 21 is stretched by the snap fastener 23, which effectively improves the flatness of the ironing cloth 21 and the stability of the ironing cloth 21 in supporting the inside of the clothes, thereby improving the ironing effect of the clothes. At the same time, the snap fastener 23 can be adjusted to snap and stretch different parts of the ironing cloth 21 according to the actual situation, thereby further improving the flatness of the ironing cloth 21.

[0032] The two ends of the connecting rod 16 are slidably connected to the hanging arms 15 at both ends. When the two moving rods 11 move synchronously, they will drive the first telescopic rod 14 and the hanging arms 15 to move. At this time, the two ends of the connecting rod 16 will slide relative to the hanging arms 15 as the hanging arms 15 move horizontally. The connecting rod 16 can also form a connection and fixation for the two hanging arms 15, further improving the stability of the entire clothes hanger.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the winding assembly includes a rotating rod 26 rotatably disposed inside two moving rods 11. A winding roller 25 is slidably disposed on the rotating rod 26 between the two moving rods 11. A second groove 27 is provided on the outer circular surface of the rotating rod 26. A slider 28 is slidably disposed inside the second groove 27. The slider 28 is fixedly connected to the winding roller 25. The winding roller 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the ironing cloth 21. A damping element 33 is provided on the side wall of the rotating rod 26. One end of the rotating rod 26 is rotatably connected to the damping element 33. A rotating disk 32 is also provided at one end of the rotating rod 26.

[0034] Specifically, by rotating the rotating rod 26, the take-up roller 25 is driven to rotate, so that the ironing cloth 21 is wrapped around the outer surface of the take-up roller 25, forming a take-up of the ironing cloth 21. The damping element 33 can restrict the rotation of one end of the rotating rod 26, so that when there is no external force to rotate the rotating disk 32, the rotating rod 26 will not rotate under the elastic stretching action of the ironing cloth 21 itself. Moreover, when the two moving rods 11 approach each other, the sliding setting of the take-up roller 25 ensures that the take-up roller 25 can always be located in the middle of the two moving rods 11, and the take-up roller 25 drives the ironing cloth 21, so that the ironing cloth 21 can be located in the middle of the hanger.

[0035] The rotating disk 32 in this design effectively improves the ease of rotating the rotating rod 26.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple connecting rings 24 are provided at both the upper and lower ends of the ironing cloth 21. The multiple connecting rings 24 are slidably connected to the adjacent connecting rod 16 and rotating rod 26. Multiple through holes 22 are provided at the edge of the end face of the ironing cloth 21. The multiple through holes 22 and the snap fasteners 23 are snapped together.

[0037] Specifically, the connecting ring 24 can further stretch both ends of the ironing cloth 21, so that the ironing cloth 21 can maintain a flatter state, and at the same time improve the support effect of the hanger when ironing clothes.

[0038] The multiple through holes 22 allow the snap fasteners 23 to stretch and fix the ironing cloth 21 at different positions according to the actual flatness of the ironing cloth 21, thereby further improving the overall flatness of the ironing cloth 21.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a third slide groove 29 is provided on the end face of the base 10. The lower ends of the two moving rods 11 are slidably connected to the third slide groove 29. A bidirectional threaded rod 30 is rotatably provided inside the third slide groove 29. The bidirectional threaded rod 30 is rotatably connected to the two moving rods 11. A rotating handle 31 is provided at one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 30.

[0040] Specifically, the design of the rotating handle 31 improves the ease of rotating the bidirectional threaded rod 30.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, each movable rod 11 has a snap-fit ​​groove 17 on its upper end face. The first telescopic rod 14 is slidably connected to the snap-fit ​​groove 17. Each movable rod 11 has a rotating component 12 rotatably mounted on its top. Each rotating component 12 has a fixed slide cylinder 13 on its upper end face. Each fixed slide cylinder 13 is slidably connected to its adjacent first telescopic rod 14. A third telescopic rod 35 is rotatably mounted on the end face of the base 10. The output end of the third telescopic rod 35 is provided with a snap-fit ​​component 36, which can snap-fit ​​with the connecting rod 16.

[0042] Specifically, the bottom of the first telescopic rod 14 can slide into the inside of the locking groove 17 through the fixed slide cylinder 13 to form a locking connection between the first telescopic rod 14 and the moving rod 11, thereby making the first telescopic rod 14 and the moving rod 11 on the same horizontal plane, so that the entire clothes hanger remains vertical. If horizontal ironing is required, the bottom of the first telescopic rod 14 can be pulled out from the inside of the locking groove 17, and then the fixed slide cylinder 13 and the first telescopic rod 14 and other components can be rotated so that the clothes hanger can be ironed horizontally.

[0043] When performing vertical ironing, the third telescopic rod 35 can be stretched to allow the locking piece 36 to engage with the outer surface of the second telescopic rod 34, further reinforcing the entire hanger structure. When performing horizontal ironing, the third telescopic rod 35 can be rotated and stretched, causing the output end of the third telescopic rod 35 to engage with the locking piece 36 on the outer surface of the connecting rod 16. This allows the third telescopic rod 35, the moving rod 11, and the first telescopic rod 14 to form a triangular support structure, thereby increasing the stability of the hanger.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, each of the first telescopic rods 14 has a first groove 18 on its outer circular surface. The side wall of the first groove 18 has two snap-fit ​​grooves 20. A rotating clip 19 is slidably disposed inside the snap-fit ​​groove 20. One end of the rotating clip 19 is rotatably connected to the outer circular surface of the first telescopic rod 14. The rotating clip 19 can also slide up and down in the first groove 18.

[0045] Specifically, the first slide groove 18 and the rotating locking strip 19 limit the vertical sliding distance of the first telescopic rod 14. When vertical ironing is required, the rotating locking strip 19 is pulled, which causes the first telescopic rod 14 to move downward until the rotating locking strip 19 engages with the locking groove 20 located at the lower end of the first slide groove 18. At this time, the bottom of the first telescopic rod 14 is engaged with the inside of the locking groove 17. When horizontal ironing is required, the rotating locking strip 19 is pulled, causing it to engage with the locking groove 20 located at the upper end of the first slide groove 18. At this time, the lower end of the first telescopic rod 14 will disengage from the inside of the locking groove 17.

[0046] When clothes need to be ironed, first, adjust the hanger to fit the size of the clothes to be ironed. Turn the handle 31, which drives the bidirectional threaded rod 30 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 30 causes the two moving rods 11 to move relative to each other, so that the width between the two moving rods 11 is suitable for the user's needs. Then, adjust the length of the output end of the first telescopic rod 14 so that the overall height of the hanger is suitable for the user's needs and the size of the clothes. Next, turn the rotating disk 32, which drives the rotating rod 26 to rotate. The rotating rod 26 drives the take-up roller 25 to rotate, and the take-up roller 25 rotates to take up the ironing cloth 21.

[0047] Then, based on the actual stretching requirements of the ironing cloth 21, the buckles 23 at different positions are used to snap onto the through holes 22 on the adjacent ironing cloth 21.

[0048] Finally, as Figure 7 As shown, if horizontal ironing is required, the rotating locking strip 19 needs to be rotated to disengage from the locking groove 20. Then, the rotating locking strip 19 is pulled to engage with the locking groove 20 located above the first slide groove 18. Then, the first telescopic rod 14 and other components are rotated until they are in a horizontal position. Then, the output end of the third telescopic rod 35 is rotated and stretched so that the locking piece 36 on the output end of the third telescopic rod 35 engages with the outer surface of the connecting rod 16. At this time, the second telescopic rod 34 will support the bent part of the ironing cloth 21. Subsequently, the ironing cloth 21 is tightened and stretched flat.
