Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically relating to a device for quickly drying umbrellas. Background Technology
[0002] In daily life, people use umbrellas on rainy days. Umbrellas provide great convenience, but when people need to go to places like shopping malls or office buildings, the slippery floors caused by raindrops from umbrellas can make the ground even more slippery, increasing the risk of slipping and falling, which is not conducive to travel. Furthermore, umbrellas are easily confused or lost when left unattended.
[0003] In response, staff will distribute plastic bags to people before they enter shopping malls or office buildings so that they can cover their umbrellas with the bags. While this method can prevent water droplets from falling to the ground, it consumes a large number of plastic bags. People usually throw these plastic bags away after use, resulting in great waste and environmental pollution. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following description.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a device for quickly drying umbrellas includes a drying cylinder 1, a water tank 2, a control box 3, a hot air blower 4, a heat dissipation module 5, a clamping plate 6, a control panel 7, and a start / stop control assembly. The drying cylinder 1 is fixed to the top of the water tank 2, and the bottom of the drying cylinder 1 is connected to the water tank 2. The control box 3 is fixed to the outer wall of the drying cylinder 1. The control panel 7 is installed on the outer wall of the control box 3. The hot air blower 4 and the start / stop control assembly are both installed inside the drying cylinder 1 and are electrically connected to the control panel 7. The heat dissipation module 5 is installed at the top air outlet of the hot air blower 4. The clamping plate 6 is located above the drying cylinder 1, and one end of the clamping plate 6 has an elastic latch corresponding to the drying cylinder 1. The control box 3 is provided with a lifting bracket, and the clamping plate 5 is located on the lifting bracket. The height of the clamping plate 5 can be adjusted by the lifting bracket. The bottom of the water tank 2 is provided with a drain hole.
[0022] The elastic latch and the clamping plate 6 can be integrally formed. The umbrella handle is inserted into the elastic latch, and then the umbrella is clamped by the clamping plate 6. The start-stop control component is used to detect whether the umbrella is placed in the drying cylinder 1 and the humidity in the drying cylinder 1, so that the control panel 7 can control the start and stop of the hot air blower 4 according to the detection results of the start-stop control component. A top cover 14 is provided on the top of the drying cylinder 1. The top cover 14 is rotatably connected to the top of the control box 3 through a connecting plate. The drying cylinder 1 can be opened or closed by rotating the top cover 14. When the umbrella needs to be dried, open the top cover 14, raise the clamping plate 6 to a certain height using the lifting bracket, place the umbrella on the clamping plate 6, and then place the umbrella into the drying cylinder 1 using the lifting bracket. After the start-stop control component detects that the umbrella has been placed into the drying cylinder 1, the control panel 7 automatically controls the hot air blower 4 to start working. Under the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation module 5, the hot air blown by the hot air blower 4 thoroughly dries the umbrella. During the drying process, the rainwater on the umbrella surface automatically drips into the water tank 2 and is drained away through the drain hole. When the start-stop detection component detects that the humidity in the drying cylinder 1 has reached the set value, the control panel 7 controls the hot air blower 4 to stop working, completing the drying operation.
[0023] like Figures 2-5As shown, the lifting bracket includes a sleeve 8, a lifting tube 9, and a locking assembly. Both the sleeve 8 and the lifting tube 9 are rectangular tubes. The sleeve 8 is vertically installed inside the control box 3, and its top is fixedly connected to the control box 3. The lifting tube 9 slides through the sleeve 8, with its top end extending upwards through the sleeve 8. One end of the clamping plate 6, away from the elastic latch, is fixedly sleeved around the top edge of the lifting tube 9. By manually controlling the lifting tube 9 to slide up and down inside the sleeve 8, the clamping plate 6 is raised and lowered. The locking assembly is located inside the lifting tube 9. The side wall of the sleeve 8 has multiple locking holes arranged sequentially along the moving direction of the lifting tube 9. During the process of adjusting the height of the clamping plate 6 by sliding the lifting tube 9, the locking assembly is used to cooperate with the locking holes to lock or unlock the lifting tube 9.
[0024] like Figures 3-5 As shown, the locking assembly includes a long rod 10, a locking pin 11, a rotating shaft 12, a pressure block 17, and a spring 18. A fixing plate 19 is provided inside the top end of the lifting tube 9. The fixing plate 19 and the lifting tube 9 can be integrally formed. The pressure block 17 is slidably disposed inside the lifting tube 9 above the fixing plate 19. The top end of the long rod 10 passes through the fixing plate 19 and abuts against the pressure block 17. The spring 18 is sleeved on the long rod 10 between the fixing plate 19 and the pressure block 17. The two ends of the spring 18 are fixedly connected to the pressure block 17 and the fixing plate 19, respectively. A rotating shaft 12 that is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the lifting tube 9 is fixed in the middle of the locking pin 11. One end of the locking pin 11 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the long rod 10 through a connecting shaft 20. The other end of the locking pin 11 is provided with an elbow that passes through the lifting tube 9. The elbow and the locking pin 11 can be integrally formed. The elbow can slide through the locking hole. By pressing the pressure block 17, the pressure block 17 moves the long rod 10 downward, compressing the spring 18. The downward movement of the long rod 10 causes the locking pin 11 to rotate, thereby disengaging the elbow from the locking hole and unlocking it. This allows manual control of the sliding of the lifting tube 9 to adjust the height of the clamping plate 6. When the pressure block 17 is released, it slides upward under the restoring force of the spring 18, causing the long rod 10 to move upward and rotate the locking pin 11, allowing the elbow to pass through the locking hole and locking the lifting tube 9.
[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, multiple evenly distributed heat dissipation ducts 13 are provided on the top and side walls of the heat dissipation module 5. The hot air blown out by the hot air blower 4 is evenly distributed to each corner of the drying cylinder 1 through the evenly distributed heat dissipation ducts 13, which facilitates the thorough drying of the umbrella.
[0026] like Figure 2As shown, the start / stop control assembly includes an infrared sensor 15 and a humidity sensor 16. Both the infrared sensor 15 and the humidity sensor 16 are installed on the inner wall of the drying drum 1 and are electrically connected to the control panel 7. The infrared sensor 15 is used to detect whether an umbrella is placed in the drying drum 1. When an umbrella is detected, the control panel 7 controls the hot air blower 4 to start the drying operation. The humidity sensor 16 is used to detect the humidity inside the drying drum 1. When the humidity inside the drying drum 1 reaches a set value, the control panel 7 controls the hot air blower 4 to stop the drying operation.
[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0028] Open the top cover 14, press down the pressure block 17 to unlock the lifting tube 9, slide the lifting tube 9 to raise the clamping plate 6 to a certain height, then clip the umbrella handle onto the elastic slot on the clamping plate 6, then slide the lifting tube 9 to place the umbrella into the drying cylinder 1, then release the pressure block 17 to lock the lifting tube 9, thus securing the umbrella. After the infrared sensor 15 detects that the umbrella has been placed into the drying cylinder 1, the control panel 7 automatically controls the hot air blower 4 to start working. Under the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation module 5, the hot air blown by the hot air blower 4 thoroughly dries the umbrella. During the drying process, the rainwater on the umbrella surface automatically drips into the water tank 2 and is drained away through the drain hole. When the humidity sensor 16 detects that the humidity in the drying cylinder 1 has reached the set value, the control panel 7 controls the hot air blower 4 to stop working. After the drying operation is completed, unlock the lifting tube 9 and slide the lifting tube 9 to remove the umbrella from the drying cylinder 1. The above-described quick umbrella drying device can not only automatically and thoroughly dry the umbrella, but also has high working efficiency and is easy to use.
[0029] Finally, although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
