[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-6 The present application claims a laundry drying device 4 which can be used alone or as part of a drying assembly in an electric clothes drying machine. The electric clothes drying machine suitable for the laundry drying device 4 generally comprises a main machine 1 and a drying assembly controlled by the main machine 1, and a control lifting frame 5 is arranged on the drying assembly to control the vertical distance between the main machine 1 and the drying assembly. The drying assembly can be structurally expanded and adjusted based on a fixed rod 2.

[0033] Reference Figures 2-4 The laundry drying device 4 of the present application comprises a drying assembly 41 and an air guide assembly, wherein the drying assembly 41 comprises a machine shell 411, a fan 412 arranged inside the machine shell 411, an air duct module 413 arranged around the outer periphery of the fan 412, and a heating module 414 transversely arranged on the air duct module 413; and the air guide assembly is communicated with the air duct module 413 and used for hanging clothes to be dried.

[0034] Further, the casing 411 comprises a closeable upper cover 4111 and a bottom support 4112, which can be connected by screws or other common means for detachable fixed connection. The upper cover 4111 and the bottom support 4112 jointly constitute a closed cavity for the operation of the fan 412. The bottom support 4112 can have a certain depth to at least partially support the fan 412 and the air duct module 413. When the clothes drying apparatus 4 is used alone, the bottom surface of the bottom support 4112 is configured to be placed flat or hung on a support, and the bottom surface of the bottom support 4112 is kept at a certain distance from the support surface to facilitate air induction by the fan 412. When the clothes drying apparatus 4 is used as an accessory on the electric clothes drying machine, the clothes drying apparatus 4 is arranged close to the bracket 3, which is generally understood as a component orthogonally connected to a pair of parallel fixed rods 2, for connecting the fixed rods 2, and a lifting frame 5 is arranged on the bracket 3 to realize connection with the main machine 1 and be controlled by the main machine 1; in this embodiment, the bottom support 4112 is provided with a first positioning structure 41121 for fixing with the fixed rods 2, and a possible implementation is that the bottom support 4112 is fitted with the surface profile of the fixed rods 2 along a pair of parallel edges, so that the clothes drying apparatus 4 is placed across the pair of fixed rods 2, or a matching connecting assembly is arranged between the bottom support 4112 and the fixed rods 2 for fixed connection. The upper cover 4111 can have a certain depth to jointly form a height with the depth of the bottom support 4112 for accommodating the fan 412 and the air duct module 413. When the clothes drying apparatus 4 is used alone, the upper surface of the upper cover 4111 can be configured to be hung on a support, and the upper cover 4111 is kept at a certain distance from the hung support surface to facilitate air induction by the fan 412. When the clothes drying apparatus 4 is used as an accessory on the electric clothes drying machine, the first positioning structure 41121 in the aforementioned bottom support 4112 can be transplanted to the upper cover 4111 for configuration, without affecting the connection effect of the clothes drying apparatus 4 with the fixed rods 2. Further, the upper cover 4111 is provided with a second positioning structure for fixing the air guide assembly, and the specific form of the second positioning structure should be set according to the used air guide assembly, which is described below in combination with the structure of the air guide assembly.

[0035] In this embodiment, the air duct module 413 is arranged in cooperation with the used fan 412, and the specific form of the air duct module 413 should be set according to the used fan 412, which is described below in combination with the structure of the fan 412. Figure 3The centrifugal fan adopts the principle of centrifugal force, and the gas or air is sucked in and accelerated by the rotation of the rotor, and a high-speed flow is formed at the outlet. After the airflow enters the impeller of the fan axially, it mainly flows radially. This design makes the centrifugal fan have high working efficiency, can effectively transport a large amount of air, provide stronger air pressure and air volume, and has the advantages of high efficiency, large air volume, adjustability, pressure stability, low noise, energy saving and environmental protection, high reliability and strong adaptability. The centrifugal fan has a lower requirement for its axial height, and is suitable for flat space. In order to adapt to the air guiding characteristics of the centrifugal fan, an air guiding window 4131 is arranged at the position of the upper cover 4111 and the bottom support 4112 opposite to the fan 412, and a partition plate 4132 is arranged around the fan 412 to the air duct outlet 4133, and the air guiding window 4131 and the partition plate 4132 constitute an air duct module 413. The diameter of the air guiding window 4131 matches the diameter of the fan 412, so as to introduce as much external airflow into the casing 411 as possible; the air guiding window 4131 is provided with a protective net to prevent foreign matters from being sucked into the fan 412 and causing failure of the fan 412. The density of the protective net of the air guiding window 4131 at the bottom support 4112 which is easy to touch should be appropriately increased. The partition plate 4132 is arranged in combination with the principle of fluid mechanics, so as to increase the air pressure at the air duct outlet 4133 as much as possible. As shown in Figure 3 , the distance between the partition plate 4132 and the outer periphery of the fan 412 is not equidistant, and becomes wider from the outer periphery of the fan 412 to the air duct outlet 4133. This arrangement is beneficial to increasing the pressurization effect of the fan 412.

[0036] The heating module 414 is arranged across the air duct module 413, and more specifically, the heating module 414 is arranged across the air duct range defined by the partition plate 4132. As shown in Figure 3 , the heating module 414 is arranged across the air duct range of the fan 412 and the air duct outlet 4133. One possible implementation is that the heating module 414 adopts the selection strategy of the heating device in a general hot air machine. The heating device in the hot air machine can adopt various devices such as electric heating pipe, PTC ceramic, graphene, etc. The heating efficiency, safety, energy saving and environmental protection performance, and maintenance cost should be considered comprehensively when selecting, and the present application is not limited in detail.

[0037] The laundry drying apparatus of the present application can further comprise a control module 415, which comprises a power supply component and / or a control component arranged inside the casing 411, and the surface of the casing 411 is further provided with a first interface 4151. When the laundry drying apparatus 4 is used alone, the power supply component should be configured to realize the acquisition of power supply, and the first interface 4151 is directly connected to alternating current to enable the normal operation of the laundry drying apparatus 4; if the control component is configured, the control component can obtain power supply signals through the first interface 4151 when it works independently, and the control component can obtain control signals through the first interface 4151 or through wireless communication when it needs to be controlled by other devices. When the laundry drying apparatus 4 is used as a component of the electric clothes drying machine, a second interface 11 can be arranged on the main machine 1 to provide power supply signals and / or control signals for the laundry drying apparatus 4 after the first interface 4151 is connected to the second interface 11. The connection between the first interface 4151 and the second interface 11 can simplify the power supply strategy and / or control strategy of the laundry drying apparatus 4 on the electric clothes drying machine, and can also simplify the layout of the electrical components inside the laundry drying apparatus 4. Figures 1-4 The main machine 1 and the laundry drying apparatus 4 have an overlapping area in the vertical projection plane, and in the overlapping area, the second interface 11 is arranged on the main machine 1, the second interface 11 is realized in the form of a pin or a socket, and the pin or the socket faces downward, the first interface 4151 is arranged on the laundry drying apparatus 4, the first interface 4151 matches the second interface 11, and the socket or the pin faces upward. When the lifting frame 5 pulls the fixed rod 2 upward, the first interface 4151 is engaged with the second interface 11, and the laundry drying apparatus 4 is in a ready-to-use state; when the lifting frame 5 pulls the fixed rod 2 downward, the first interface 4151 is separated from the second interface 11, and the laundry drying apparatus 4 is in an unusable state. Through such an arrangement, it can be avoided that the laundry drying apparatus 4 running at a low position may cause scalding accidents to people around, and it can also be avoided that the laundry drying apparatus 4 running for a long time may increase the risk of fire due to overheating. The implementation of the first interface 4151 and the second interface 11 can also adopt other strategies, such as wireless power supply. The control of the laundry drying apparatus 4 can consider realizing the following effects: timing start or stop, self-adapting to the drying degree of laundry to adjust the running time, self-adapting to the used air guide component to adjust the running mode, adjusting the opening degree or closing degree of the air duct outlet 4133.

[0038] Reference Figure 5 and 6The air guide assembly of the present application comprises an air guide type hanger 42, which comprises two housings that are mirror-symmetrically closed to form a cavity 42a. In this embodiment, each of the housings forms the basic structure of a shoulder type hanger, which comprises a cantilevered shoulder 421, a neck 422 connecting the two shoulders 421, and a hook 423 extending upward from the neck 422. The cavity 42a formed by the two housings after being closed has an air inlet 424 at the neck 422 and air outlets 425 at the shoulders 421, so that the gas entering the cavity 42a can flow from top to bottom. The air guide type hanger 42 of the present application can be used alone as an independent shoulder type hanger.

[0039] Further, the main body of each of the housings is integrally formed, i.e., the shoulder 421, the neck 422 and the hook 423 of each of the housings are integrally formed, thereby reducing the assembly positions of the hanger and improving the load-bearing capacity of the air guide type hanger 42 of the present application. In addition, the integrally formed housing can reduce the opportunity of air passing through the side wall of the cavity 42a, so that the gas injected into the cavity 42a can flow in the specified direction, reducing the loss.

[0040] The air inlet 424 is arranged at the top of the neck 422. On the one hand, the width of the neck 422 can be configured to be greater than that of any of the shoulders 421, so as to guide more gas through the neck 422 to meet the air outlet requirement of the two shoulders 421. On the other hand, the widened top of the neck 422 is easier to set an opening to align with the air supply device. In this embodiment, the air inlet 424 is formed by the two housings after being closed. Each of the housings is recessed to form a gap at the position corresponding to the air inlet 424 relative to the closed edge thereof. After being closed, the two gaps form a closed entrance structure. The air inlet 424 is also provided with an inclined opening adapted to the air duct outlet 4133 of the drying assembly 41. In other possible embodiments, the air inlet 424 can be configured with an adapter fitting, so that the air guide type hanger 42 of the present application can be connected with other types of air supply devices for use. Further, the bottom of the shoulder 421 opposite to the air inlet 424 in the cavity 42a is provided with an air guide plate 426 for guiding the gas from the air inlet 424 to the air outlets 425 on both sides to avoid turbulence of the gas inside the cavity 42a and hinder the smoothness of the gas flow. In one possible embodiment, the air guide plate 426 comprises two mirror-symmetrically inclined plates 4261, the top of the two inclined plates 4261 is connected, and the bottom of the two inclined plates 4261 respectively faces the corresponding shoulder 421, thereby forming a "chevron" type air guide structure. Adapted to the two closed housings, the air guide plate 426 can also be divided into two pieces according to the virtual closed line, and arranged inside the two housings, and can be integrally formed with other structures of the housings to simplify the processing procedure.

[0041] The air outlet 425 is arranged at the shoulder part 421. Considering that the upper surface of the shoulder hanger is close to the clothes when the clothes are hung, it is difficult to smoothly discharge air if the air outlet 425 is arranged on the upper surface, and the upper part of the clothes in the hanging state is usually dried faster, so the application preferably arranges the air outlet 425 at the bottom of the shoulder part 421, so that the gas is more downwardly delivered, enhancing the downward flow of air in the clothes, accelerating and balancing the drying progress of the whole clothes. The air outlet 425 is arranged as a circular hole in this embodiment, and is arranged in an interval on the virtual hinge line, which can be a component that provides a semicircle for each shell, and forms a circular air outlet 425 after the two shells are hinged. Alternatively, a plurality of circular air outlets 425 can be arranged at the bottom of each shell, so that the air outlets 425 are arranged in an interval along the two sides of the hinge line after the two shells are hinged. In other embodiments, the air outlet 425 can also be arranged in a waist shape, a rectangular shape or other shapes that are beneficial to air guiding; the air outlet 425 can also be arranged on the side wall of the shoulder part 421 to increase the direction of air diffusion.

[0042] The edges of the two hinged shells are provided with a snap-fit structure capable of interference fit, which can form a relatively simple sealing structure. Alternatively, the hinged edge of one shell is provided with a full-encircling snap strip 427, and the hinged edge of the other shell is provided with a full-encircling snap groove 428 capable of snap-fitting the snap strip 427. The snap strip 427 can be embedded in the snap groove 428, and the friction between the two limits the snap strip 427 from being pulled out of the snap groove 428, thereby achieving the hinged connection of the two shells. Further, in order to improve the firmness of the connection or the sealing degree, a sealing ring or sealing adhesive can be filled between the snap strip 427 and the snap groove 428. In other embodiments, the snap strip 427 and the snap groove 428 can be arranged in an interval on the hinged edge of the shell, which meets the requirements of sealing and hinged connection.

[0043] The outer contour structure of the shoulder part 421 is used to support the shoulder part of the upper garment or the waist part of the lower garment, 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 part 421 can also be improved in the following ways:

[0044] a. Increase clamps on both sides or below the shoulder part 421 to fix clothes that are not convenient to hang through the shoulder part 421, such as socks;

[0045] b. Increase a transverse connecting rod below the shoulder part 421 to hang clothes that do not have a shoulder part 421 or a waist, such as a pillow towel;

[0046] c. Increase a hook or groove structure on the shoulder part 421 to hang clothes that are easy to slide off, such as a halter top;

[0047] d. The outer contour of the end of the shoulder 421 is increased to reduce the creases on the clothes and to expand the inner space of the clothes.

[0048] e. The extension direction of the shoulder 421 is changed so that the end of the shoulder 421 is not coplanar with the neck 422, and the air guide type clothes hanger 42 forms a three-dimensional curved surface structure to reduce the creases on the clothes and to expand the inner space of the clothes.

[0049] Reference Figures 2-4 , adapted to the structure of the hook part 423 and the air inlet, the upper cover 4111 of the drying assembly 41 is arranged near the edge of the air duct outlet 4133 to provide a second positioning structure for fixing the hook part 423. The second positioning structure includes a convex part 41111 adapted to the inner contour of the hook part 423, and a groove part 41112 adjacent to the convex part 41111, the groove part 41112 is used for inserting the front end of the hook part 423 to achieve more stable positioning, the longitudinal axes of the convex part 41111 and the groove part 41112 are parallel to each other and can cross the entire side edge where the air duct outlet 4133 is located. Further, the convex part 41111 can also be provided with a plurality of protrusions 41113 for use as a windproof structure when the air guide type clothes hanger 42 is hung, to avoid multiple air guide type clothes hangers 42 from gathering during the drying process, affecting the drying efficiency. The air duct outlet 4133 includes a plurality of small openings matching the size and contour of the air inlet 424, the small openings are arranged on the surface of the base 4112, and the surface of the base 4112 provided with the small openings is inclined to match the inclination of the air inlet 424. Each small opening corresponds to the hanging of an air guide type clothes hanger 42, and thus the protrusions 41113 of the convex part 41111 can also be adapted to the position of the small openings to facilitate the alignment of the air guide type clothes hanger 42 with the small openings.

[0050] In a possible implementation, in order to reduce the loss of hot air as much as possible, a wind baffle (not shown) can be arranged at the air duct outlet 4133 to close the air duct outlet 4133 when no air guide type clothes hanger 42 is hung. The wind baffle can be matched with a single small opening, and one wind baffle is arranged corresponding to each small opening. The wind baffle can be arranged on the inner side of the base 4112, and a suitable mechanical linkage assembly is configured. When an air guide type clothes hanger 42 is hung on the drying assembly 41 and is connected to a small opening, the wind baffle of the current small opening is opened, so that the air duct is in communication with the cavity 42a of the air guide type clothes hanger 42. Optionally, the aforementioned protrusions 41113 can be configured as a switch button, and when the protrusions 41113 are pressed, the wind baffle is driven to deviate from the small opening through a series of transmission assemblies, so that the small opening is opened. After the air guide type clothes hanger 42 is removed, the protrusions 41113 are reset to reset the wind baffle.

[0051] When the air guide type clothes hanger 42 of the present application is used to hang clothes, the hot air generated by the drying assembly 41 can directly or through the duct flow into the air inlet 424, and then flow downward in the air cavity 42a of the air guide assembly 42. During the process of flowing downward in the clothes, the hot air continuously exchanges heat with the moisture in the clothes, which promotes the evaporation of the moisture from the inside of the clothes to the outside. The clothes can block the heat loss of the hot air, and more heat can be used to dry the clothes. Further, the clothes cannot completely block the heat loss of the hot air, and no other shielding structure is needed outside the clothes to be dried, thereby avoiding the risk of fire caused by heat accumulation.

[0052] In other embodiments of the present application, the air guide assembly can also have other implementations. For example, a relatively closed airproof cover connected by an air guide pipe can be arranged at the outlet 4133 of the air duct. The airproof cover can be appropriately moved to dry clothes or other items that cannot be hung on the electric clothes hanger or other items that need to be dried. Alternatively, the airproof cover can also be replaced by other accessories to adapt to more diversified drying needs. Those skilled in the art can understand that when more diversified air guide assemblies are used, the shape of the outer surface of the casing 411 of the drying assembly 41 can also be adaptively adjusted, including but not limited to the adaptive adjustment of the outlet 4133 of the air duct and the second positioning structure.

[0053] In summary, the present application provides a clothes drying device, which comprises a drying assembly including a casing, a fan arranged inside the casing, an air duct module arranged around the outer periphery of the fan, a heating module transversely arranged on the air duct module, and a control module; and an air guide assembly in communication with the air duct module and used to hang clothes to be dried. The clothes drying device of the present application has a simple and reliable drying assembly structure, can directly guide hot air to the clothes to be dried by using the air guide assembly, can save energy consumption, and can improve the drying effect.

[0054] Those skilled in the art can understand that the steps, measures, and schemes in the various operations, methods, and processes discussed in the present application can be alternated, changed, combined, or deleted. Further, other steps, measures, and schemes in the various operations, methods, and processes discussed in the present application can also be alternated, changed, rearranged, decomposed, combined, or deleted.
