Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary devices for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine, specifically an auxiliary device for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Shoes often face the problem of being difficult to dry after washing. Due to their unique structure, shoes are not easy to dry after washing, and it often takes a long time for them to dry completely. During the drying process, shoes may discolor due to exposure to direct sunlight, or become susceptible to bacterial growth when air-dried in the shade, potentially affecting health. To speed up the drying process, some people choose to use a washing machine to spin-dry their shoes. However, during the spin-drying process, the shoes violently shake and collide inside the washing machine drum, affecting the drying effect and potentially damaging both the shoes and the washing machine.

[0003] To address this, solution CN216090401U discloses a shoe washing rod that uses springs to support the external support rod. The support rod, through a fixed crossbar, holds the shoes against the inner wall of the washing machine drum, allowing the shoes to be washed in the washing machine like clothes. This also prevents the shoes from shaking inside the washing machine during the centrifugal spin-drying process, thus avoiding affecting the washing machine's spin-drying effect and preventing damage to the washing machine.

[0004] However, since the support rods are always controlled by springs, during the rapid rotation of the washing machine drum, the support rods are prone to disorderly buffering and extension, which can easily cause shoes to detach from the crossbar, making the shoes more susceptible to damage. In addition, one support rod and the fixed crossbar can only hold one shoe, which is a shortcoming. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary device for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model discloses an auxiliary device for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine, including a vertical tube. The top and bottom of the vertical tube are provided with cross-shaped square tube frames. The two cross-shaped square tube frames overlap vertically. Each cross-shaped square tube frame includes two square tubes stacked in a cross shape. Two extendable arms that can extend outwards are provided inside each square tube. Each extendable arm includes a toothed plate at the rear. Net buckles are provided on both sides of the end of each extendable arm. The net buckles are used to fasten and pull the elastic netting.

[0008] The riser is equipped with a rotating shaft, and the two ends of the rotating shaft are four-corner shafts. The four-corner shafts are equipped with two external toothed tubes, which are meshed with two toothed plates in the corresponding square tubes. The top of the four-corner shafts is equipped with a rotating disk that can slide up and down. The bottom of the rotating disks is equipped with a fixed external toothed disk. The top of the square tubes is equipped with an internal toothed disk that is fixed around the four-corner shafts. The internal toothed disks can mesh with the external toothed disks.

[0009] As an improvement, the square tube is fixedly connected to the riser, and the external gear plate is fixedly connected to the square tube.

[0010] As an improvement, the end of the extension arm is provided with a fixed elastic pad, and the mesh buckle is fixedly connected to the extension arm.

[0011] As an improvement, the top of the four corner shafts is provided with a limiting plate to limit the rotation of the rotating disk.

[0012] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are: the extension arm can freely extend and retract to adapt to the washing machine drum, and can also be fixed to prevent it from retracting, so that the elastic net can always hold the shoes tightly during the rapid rotation of the washing machine drum, and the shoes are stably spun dry. Moreover, one elastic net can hold multiple shoes, making it highly adaptable. Attached Figure Description

[0025] This embodiment is combined with the appendix Figures 1 to 4 This paper provides a detailed description of an auxiliary device for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine.

[0026] This embodiment discloses an auxiliary device for spin-drying shoes in a washing machine, comprising a riser 1. The riser 1 has a cross-shaped square tube frame at its top and bottom, with the two cross-shaped square tube frames overlapping vertically. Each cross-shaped square tube frame includes two square tubes 2 stacked in a cross shape. Each square tube 2 has two extendable arms 3 that can extend outwards. Each extendable arm 3 includes a toothed plate 4 at its rear end. Fixed mesh buckles 5 are provided on both sides of the end of each extendable arm 3. The mesh buckles 5 are used to fasten elastic mesh 6. The mesh buckles 5 have notches for fastening the elastic mesh 6, and the end of the square tube 2 has an embedded groove for the mesh buckles 5.

[0027] The riser 1 is equipped with a rotatable shaft 7. The shaft 7 has four corner shafts at both ends, each with two external toothed tubes 8. These external toothed tubes 8 mesh with two toothed plates 4 inside the corresponding square tube 2. The top of each corner shaft has a sliding rotating disk 9. The bottom of the rotating disk 9 has a fixed external toothed disk 11. The top of the square tube 2 has a fixed internal toothed disk 10 surrounding the corner shafts, which meshes with the external toothed disk 11. The external toothed disk 11 is fitted over the internal toothed disk 10.

[0028] The square tube 2 is fixedly connected to the vertical tube 1, and the external gear plate 11 is fixedly connected to the square tube 2.

[0029] The end of the extension arm 3 is provided with a fixed elastic pad 12 made of rubber, and the mesh buckle 5 is fixedly connected to the extension arm 3.

[0030] The top of the four corner shafts is provided with limiting plates 13 to limit the rotation disks 9.

[0031] In practice, the rotating disc 9 is pulled up and rotated, causing the four outer toothed tubes 8 to rotate and mesh with the toothed plate 4, thus enabling the eight extending arms 3 to extend a portion of the outer end of the square tube 2 simultaneously. Then, the four elastic wire meshes 6 are respectively hung on the mesh buckles 5. Figure 2 Next, insert this auxiliary device into the washing machine drum and continue rotating the rotating disc 9 until the elastic pads 12 at the ends of each extension arm 3 press against the inner wall of the washing machine drum. Then, press the rotating disc 9 to make the outer toothed disc 11 engage and be fixed in the inner toothed disc 10. At this time, the outer toothed tube 8 is also fixed to prevent the toothed plate 4 from retracting. Finally, insert the shoes that need to be spun dry between the inner wall of the washing machine drum and the elastic net 6. The elastic net 6 can hold multiple shoes to prevent them from slipping out. Start the washing machine to spin dry the shoes.

[0032] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the actual scope of protection is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
