Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothes drying rack technology, and in particular to an adjustable clothes drying rack. Background Technology

[0002] A clothes drying rack is a household item used for drying clothes. It is usually installed on balconies, indoors or outdoors to hang wet clothes for drying. Clothes are hung on the drying rack. However, existing mobile clothes drying racks generally use two drying poles. Since the distance between the two drying poles is fixed, it cannot flexibly accommodate clothes of different sizes. When drying large items such as coats and bed sheets, they may pile up, which affects the drying effect and the adaptability of the device. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies that prevent flexible accommodation of clothing of different sizes, thus affecting the adaptability of the device, and to propose an adjustable clothes rack.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] Design an adjustable clothes drying rack, including two bases, each base having a side plate fixedly connected to it. Each side plate has a rotating shaft rotatably connected to it via bearings. Each end of each rotating shaft has a connecting plate fixedly connected to it. Each connecting plate has a support rod fixedly connected to it. Each rotating shaft has a worm gear fixedly connected to it. Each worm gear has a worm meshing with it. The worm is rotatably connected to a fixed plate via bearings. The fixed plate is fixedly connected to the two bases.

[0006] Preferably, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to one of the side plates via a bearing, a second bevel gear is fixedly connected to the rotating rod, a first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear, and the first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the worm gear.

[0007] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the rotating rod.

[0008] Preferably, both ends of the two bases are fixedly connected with casters.

[0009] Preferably, both ends of the two bases are threaded through and connected to threaded posts, and each of the four threaded posts is fixedly connected to an abutment block.

[0010] Preferably, a rotating block is fixedly connected to each of the four threaded posts.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting column is fixedly connected to the fixing plate, and a protective shell is fixedly connected to the connecting column, with the protective shell covering the worm gear.

[0012] The adjustable clothes rack proposed in this utility model has the following advantages: when it is necessary to adjust the distance between the support rods, the worm gear rotates, which drives the worm wheel to rotate, thereby causing the two rotating shafts to rotate in opposite directions. This will reduce or increase the distance between the two support rods, so as to dry clothes of different sizes and improve the adaptability of the device. Attached Figure Description

Side plate; 12. Worm gear; 13. Connecting post; 14. First bevel gear; 15. Second bevel gear; 16. Worm gear. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1-3 An adjustable clothes drying rack includes two bases 1, each with a side plate 11 fixedly connected to it. Each side plate 11 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 7 via bearings. Each end of the rotating shaft 7 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 6, and each connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to a support rod 5. Each rotating shaft 7 is fixedly connected to a worm gear 16, and a worm 12 meshes with each worm gear 16. The worm 12 is rotatably connected to a fixed plate via bearings. The fixed plate is fixedly connected to the two bases 1. The self-locking property between the worm 12 and the worm gear 16 supports the support rods 5, thus supporting the clothes hanging on them. When the distance between the two support rods 5 needs adjustment, the worm 12 rotates, causing the worm gear 16 to rotate, which in turn causes the two rotating shafts 7 to rotate in opposite directions, thus reducing or increasing the distance between the two support rods 5 to accommodate clothes of different sizes and improve the adaptability of the device.

[0019] One of the side plates 11 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 9 via a bearing. A handle 10 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 9. A second bevel gear 15 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 9. A first bevel gear 14 meshes with the second bevel gear 15. The first bevel gear 14 is fixedly connected to the worm gear 12. By rotating the handle 10, the second bevel gear 15 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 14 to rotate, and the first bevel gear 14 drives the worm gear 12 to rotate.

[0020] Both ends of the two bases 1 are fixedly connected with casters 4, which are used to move the device.

[0021] In Embodiment 1, because the device is equipped with casters 4 at the bottom, it is prone to movement and collisions in windy weather, resulting in damage. Embodiment 2: Refer to Figure 1-3 As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on embodiment 1, both ends of the two bases 1 are threaded through and connected with threaded posts 2, and each of the four threaded posts 2 is fixedly connected with an abutment block 3 and a rotating block. By twisting the rotating block, the threaded posts 2 are driven to rotate, so that the abutment block 3 abuts against the ground, which plays a role in fixing the clothes rack and preventing the clothes rack from moving in windy weather.

[0022] Example 3: Reference Figure 1-3 As another preferred embodiment of this utility model, based on embodiment 2, a connecting column 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate, and a protective shell 8 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 13. The protective shell 8 covers the worm gear 16. By using the protective shell 8 to cover the worm gear 16 and the worm 12, it prevents clothing from getting stuck between the worm gear 16 and the worm 12, which would cause damage to the clothing.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
