Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas dryer technology, and in particular to a gas dryer with switchable exhaust port position. Background Technology

[0002] Gas dryers use the high-temperature hot air generated by gas combustion to quickly dry clothes. Compared with traditional air drying, this greatly shortens the drying time. Some high-end gas dryers are also equipped with intelligent control systems that can automatically adjust the drying temperature and time according to the material and humidity of the clothes, ensuring that the clothes are dried evenly and without overheating and damage, while saving energy consumption.

[0003] For example, patent CN222575066U discloses a clothes dryer with integrated hot water function, belonging to the field of household appliance technology. It includes: a clothes dryer body and a water heater. The clothes dryer body includes a shell, a roller rotatably installed in the shell, a flue gas passage communicating with the air inlet of the roller, an exhaust device, a first gas burner communicating with the flue gas passage, a motor, a first gas pipe, and an exhaust pipe. The outlet of the first gas pipe is equipped with a first control valve, and the outlet of the first gas pipe is connected to the air inlet of the first gas burner. One end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the air outlet of the exhaust device. The water heater includes a second gas burner, a heat exchanger, and a second gas pipe. The heat exchanger is located at the upper end of the second gas burner, and its exhaust outlet is connected to the flue gas passage. The outlet of the second gas pipe is connected to the gas inlet of the second gas burner, and the air inlet of the second gas pipe is connected to the first gas pipe. The second gas pipe is equipped with a second control valve.

[0004] The problem with the above technology is that the hot flue gas from the first gas burner enters the drum through the flue gas passage. The motor drives the drum to rotate, so that the clothes are evenly exposed to the hot flue gas. The exhaust device discharges the hot flue gas in the drum through the exhaust pipe. Since the outlet position of the exhaust device is fixed, when the dryer is installed indoors, if the outlet position is far from the outside, the length of the exhaust pipe needs to be increased so that the exhaust pipe can extend to the outside. In actual installation, the exhaust pipe will occupy the space above the dryer, thereby increasing the space occupied indoors.

[0005] To address this issue, a gas-fired clothes dryer with switchable exhaust port positions is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a gas dryer with a switchable exhaust port position, which can switch different exhaust ports according to the indoor installation position, so that the exhaust pipe is closer to the outside, thereby reducing the space occupied by the exhaust pipe.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: a gas-fired clothes dryer with switchable exhaust port positions, including a main body, a front-opening roller rotatably connected inside the main body, a gas device arranged below the roller, the gas device being used to deliver hot smoke into the roller, an exhaust device communicating with the roller at the rear of the roller, an exhaust channel communicating with the exhaust device above the exhaust device, a plurality of exhaust ports communicating with the exhaust channel on the exhaust channel, the exhaust ports being used to connect to an exhaust pipe communicating with the outside.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, smoke exhaust ports are provided at the top and side ends of the smoke exhaust channel.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a sealing cover is detachably connected to the exhaust port.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the smoke exhaust channel is arc-shaped.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the rear side of the drum is provided with an exhaust hole communicating with an exhaust device. The exhaust device includes an air inlet communicating with the exhaust hole and an air outlet communicating with a smoke exhaust channel. An impeller is provided at the air inlet, and the drive shaft of the impeller extends to the outside of the exhaust device. A rotating motor is provided below the drum, and a first transmission belt is also provided. One end of the first transmission belt is connected to the rotating motor, and the other end of the first transmission belt is connected to the drive shaft of the impeller.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a second transmission belt is also included, which is sleeved on the roller and is connected to the rotating motor.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the gas device includes a gas passage, a burner, and a combustion chamber. A gas valve is provided on the gas passage, the gas inlet of the gas passage is located on the outside of the main body, the gas outlet of the gas passage is connected to the burner, the burner is located in the combustion chamber, and the combustion chamber is connected to the drum.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the dryer can adjust the position of the exhaust pipe at the exhaust port according to the indoor installation situation, so that the exhaust pipe is closer to the outside, thereby reducing the space occupied by the exhaust pipe indoors.
