Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a telescopic clothes hanger and clothing care device. Background Technology
[0002] As living standards improve, people's need for clothing care operations such as wrinkle removal and drying continues to increase, and clothing care machines are gradually becoming more and more popular. Typically, clothes are hung on hangers set up in the care space, then high-temperature steam is introduced to soften the clothes, and then hot air is introduced to dry them, thereby achieving the care effects of wrinkle removal and shaping.
[0003] The hangers in existing garment care equipment are often of fixed size and structure, and are usually designed to support adult clothing. For smaller garments (such as children's clothing), the hangers are too large to fit properly. This makes it difficult for smaller garments to hang properly and smoothly on the hangers, and it can also result in a large distance between the drying air vent and the garment. This not only leads to poor drying results when caring for smaller garments, but also results in poor wrinkle removal and even garment deformation after care, because smaller garments cannot be hung on the hangers in the same way as normal clothing. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a telescopic clothes hanger and clothing care device to solve the problem that the clothes hangers of existing clothing care devices are difficult to adapt to different sizes of clothing.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The inventive concepts of this disclosure will be described below using terminology commonly used by those skilled in the art to convey the essence of their work to others skilled in the art. However, these inventive concepts may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein.
[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0028] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] To address the problem that existing garment care devices often have hangers that are difficult to fit garments of different sizes, this embodiment proposes a telescopic hanger, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1-4 As shown, the telescopic clothes hanger includes:
[0030] Clothes hanger body 1;
[0031] Extensions 2 are provided on both sides of the hanger body 1 and are movable relative to the hanger body 1;
[0032] A tubing structure is disposed inside the hanger body 1 and / or the extension 2 for delivering a care medium to at least one of the extensions 2.
[0033] This application provides extendable portions 2 on both sides of the hanger body 1 to form a telescopic hanger, which can accommodate clothes of different sizes. It can hang and support clothes of different sizes normally and smoothly, effectively ensuring the garment care effect and wrinkle removal effect, and also avoiding the deformation of clothes due to the mismatch between the hanger size and the garment size. At the same time, the pipeline structure can provide care media (such as high-temperature steam, hot air, fragrance, etc.) to the clothes through the extendable portions 2, and perform drying, steam care, fragrance treatment, etc., so that the telescopic hanger can meet the different care functions of the garment care equipment.
[0034] The extension part 2 is provided with a sliding groove 211 on the side near the hanger body 1. The hanger body 1 is provided with a snap-fit member 16 corresponding to the sliding groove 211. The sliding groove 211 can move relative to the snap-fit member 16 to adjust the distance the extension part 2 moves relative to the hanger body 1, that is, to adjust the telescopic length of the telescopic hanger to adapt to different sizes of clothing.
[0035] Furthermore, at least two slots are provided within the slide groove 211. The engaging member 16 can engage or disengage with any one of the slots. As the extension portion 2 moves to the target telescopic length of the hanger, after the engaging member 16 engages with the slot corresponding to the target telescopic length, a certain positioning and limiting effect is achieved. This ensures that after the clothes are hung on the hanger, the extension portion 2 will not move further due to the force of the clothes, thus ensuring that the telescopic hanger can be stably maintained at the target telescopic length. The accompanying drawings show two slots, designated as the first slot 212 and the second slot 213. When the engaging member 16 engages with the first slot 212, the telescopic hanger is in a first extended state, at which time the size of the telescopic hanger can be adapted to the size of adult clothing. When the engaging member 16 engages with the second slot 213, the telescopic hanger is in a second extended state, at which time the size of the telescopic hanger can be adapted to the size of children's clothing. However, this application is not limited to setting only two slots; more slots can be set to allow the telescopic clothes hanger to have more extension states to adapt to clothes of different sizes.
[0036] The snap-fit component 16 can be a common snap-fit contact head and an elastic element that mates with the snap-fit contact head. One end of the elastic element is connected to the inner wall of the hanger body 1, and the other end is connected to the snap-fit contact head. Under the action of the elastic element, a relative displacement can occur between the slide groove 211 and the snap-fit component 16. When a certain slot moves to the snap-fit component 16, the elastic element returns to its original position and extends, allowing the snap-fit contact head to enter the slot, thus achieving snap-fit between the snap-fit component 16 and the slot. Conversely, when the extension portion 2 is driven by an external force, the snap-fit contact head separates from the slot, the elastic element is compressed, and correspondingly, the slide groove 211 and the snap-fit component 16 can continue to move relative to each other.
[0037] Of course, the snap-fit 16 can also be a smooth protrusion. The protrusion is set on the inner wall of the hanger body 1. When the extension 2 moves relative to the hanger body 1, the protrusion can enter a slot in the slide 211 or separate from the slot.
[0038] The hanger body 1 has an inner cavity, and the extension portion 2 includes an extension section 21 and a mounting section 22. One end of the extension section 21 is disposed in the inner cavity of the hanger body 1, and the other end is connected to the mounting section 22. The extension section 21 can move relative to the inner cavity of the hanger body 1 and is sealed to the hanger body 1. Alternatively, the extension section 21 can be described as being sealed to the hanger body 1 in a way that allows it to move relative to the hanger body 1. This ensures that the extension portion 2 can move relative to the hanger body 1, realizing the extension and retraction of the hanger, and also prevents the care medium from leaking out from the gap between the inner wall of the hanger body 1 and the extension section 21. Correspondingly, a sliding groove 211 is provided on the outer side of the extension section 21, and a snap-fit member 16 is provided on the inner wall of the hanger body 1. The specific mating relationship and mating structure of the sliding groove 211 and the snap-fit member 16 are the same as described above and will not be repeated. It should be noted that the extension section 21 and the mounting section 22 of this application can be an integral structure, or they can be separate parts assembled into the extension section 2.
[0039] The piping structure includes at least a hot air duct 17. Specifically, the hanger body 1 has an air inlet 13. The hanger body 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12, which are detachably connected. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 enclose the inner cavity, and the air inlet 13 communicates with the inner cavity. Thus, at least the inner cavity can serve as a hot air duct 17 inside the hanger body 1, allowing the garment care device to provide hot air to the inner cavity through the air inlet 13 during the care process. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be connected by snap-fit and / or fasteners.
[0040] Based on the hot air duct 17, the extension part 2 has a hollow structure with a cavity 20 inside. The extension part 2 is provided with an air outlet. The inlet of the cavity 20 is connected to the inner cavity of the clothes hanger body 1, and the outlet of the cavity 20 is connected to the air outlet. Thus, the hot air entering the inner cavity of the clothes hanger body 1 can further enter the extension part 2 and be blown directly onto the clothes through the air outlet, which can effectively shorten the distance between the hot air and the clothes and improve the drying effect.
[0041] Specifically, along the length of the extension portion 2, the cavity 20 can sequentially pass through the extension section 21 and the mounting section 22. A first air outlet 23 is provided on the side of the mounting section 22 near the extension section 21, and a second air outlet 24 is provided at the end of the mounting section 22 away from the extension section 21. The cavity 20 is connected to both the first air outlet 23 and the second air outlet 24, allowing hot air to be blown out through at least two air outlets at the mounting section 22, which helps to evenly distribute the hot air to the clothes and improve the drying effect. Correspondingly, the inner cavity of the hanger body 1 and the cavity of the extension portion 2 can be considered together as a hot air duct 17.
[0042] Since most of the fabric of the clothes hanging on the hanger is usually located below the hanger, preferably, the openings of the first air outlet 23 and the second air outlet 24 are both facing downwards, so that the hot air can blow directly onto the clothes.
[0043] The pipeline structure includes at least a steam pipeline 3. One end of the steam pipeline 3 is disposed in the inner cavity of the hanger body 1, and the other end can extend from the inner cavity of the hanger body 1 to the cavity 20 of the extension part 2 for conveying high-temperature steam to the extension part 2.
[0044] The hanger body 1 has a three-way pipe 14 inside its inner cavity. A steam outlet 25 is located at the end of the mounting section 22 furthest from the extension section 21. The inlet of the three-way pipe 14 is connected to a steam source (such as a steam generator). The inlet of the steam pipe 3 is connected to the outlet of the three-way pipe 14, and the outlet of the steam pipe 3 is connected to the steam outlet 25. This allows high-temperature steam to pass sequentially through the three-way pipe 14, the steam pipe 3, and the steam outlet 25, and then be directly delivered to the clothing through the steam outlet 25. This effectively shortens the distance between the high-temperature steam and the clothing, ensuring that the steam contacts the clothing at a more suitable temperature and humidity, thus improving the care of the clothing.
[0045] The steam pipe 3 can be a flexible hose or a corrugated pipe. During the expansion and contraction of the clothes hanger, the steam pipe 3 can bend (compress) or straighten (elongate) accordingly to adapt to the dimensional changes of the clothes hanger. The steam pipe 3 can also be two sleeved pipes, one thin and one thick, with the thin pipe extending into the thick pipe. The two are sealed together in a way that allows relative movement. As the clothes hanger expands and contracts, the thin pipe can move relative to the thick pipe, thus enabling the steam pipe 3 to adapt to the dimensional changes of the clothes hanger.
[0046] Preferably, the piping structure in this application includes a hot air piping 17 and a steam piping 3. The inner cavity of the hanger body 1 and the cavity 20 of the extension 2 form the hot air piping 17, and the steam piping 3 can be a separate pipe located within the hot air piping 17. Of course, the media corresponding to the hot air piping 17 and the steam piping 3 in this application can be interchanged; that is, the hot air piping 17 is used to transport high-temperature steam, and the steam piping 3 is used to transport hot air. Furthermore, the piping structure for transporting hot air can not only transport hot air, but also ambient temperature airflow, low-temperature airflow, fragrance, etc.
[0047] A hot air diversion plate 15 is provided on the inner wall of the first housing 11 and / or the inner wall of the second housing 12, dividing the inner cavity of the hanger body 1 into two parts, which correspond to the two extension parts 2 of the telescopic hanger respectively. The hot air entering the inner cavity from the air inlet 13 can flow to the two extension parts 2 relatively evenly under the diversion effect of the hot air diversion plate 15.
[0048] Preferably, the air inlet 13 is located directly above the hot air diversion plate 15. In the inner cavity of the clothes hanger body 1, the three-way pipe 14 is arranged between the air inlet 13 and the hot air diversion plate 15. On the one hand, this avoids unnecessary spatial interference, and on the other hand, the three-way pipe 14 can also provide a certain diversion effect at the air inlet 13, so that the hot air can flow evenly into the two hot air pipes 17.
[0049] Based on the telescopic clothes hanger, this application further proposes a garment care device, which includes a care medium supply device and a telescopic clothes hanger. The care medium supply device is connected to the inlet end of a pipeline structure. Depending on the type of care medium, the care medium supply device can be a fan with a heater or a steam generator.
[0050] In this utility model, any garment care device may include the relevant structure and assembly relationship provided in this embodiment; in addition, the garment care device also includes conventional components such as a housing and a care arm; since these conventional components can all be referred to the applicant's earlier prior art, they will not be described in detail here.
[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
