[0042] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 5 This describes the clothes hanger swing structure and clothing care machine according to embodiments of the present invention.

[0043] According to an embodiment of this utility model, in one aspect, a clothes hanger swing structure is provided, including a drive mechanism 1, a connecting rod 3, at least one swing bracket 4, and at least one clothes hanger hanging element 5. Specifically, as Figure 1 As shown, the output end of the drive mechanism 1 is provided with an eccentric shaft 2, which is connected to the connecting rod 3. The drive mechanism 1 is adapted to drive the eccentric shaft 2 to rotate, so as to drive the connecting rod 3 to swing. Thus, by utilizing the eccentric motion characteristics of the eccentric shaft 2, the connecting rod 3 is made to swing back and forth along its length.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, each swing bracket 4 is connected to the connecting rod 3. The swing brackets 4 are spaced apart along the length of the connecting rod 3, and the connecting rod 3 is adapted to drive each swing bracket 4 to rotate and swing. Each hanger hanger 5 is correspondingly arranged and connected to each swing bracket 4, and is adapted to hang hangers 6. It should be noted that the number of swing brackets 4 and hanger hangers 5 can be determined according to actual design requirements. For example, ... Figure 1 As shown, there are four swing brackets 4 and four clothes hanger attachments 5, which are evenly arranged along the length of the connecting rod 3. Among them, as... Figure 2 As shown, the hanger 5 is provided with a hook part 502, and the hanger 6 is suspended on the hook part 502.

[0045] This configuration, where drive mechanism 1 rotates eccentric shaft 2, and eccentric shaft 2, with its eccentric motion characteristics, drives connecting rod 3 to reciprocate horizontally. Connecting rod 3 then drives multiple swing supports 4 to reciprocate, which in turn drives multiple hanger attachments 5 to rotate and swing, achieving the reciprocating twisting of the clothing. This shaking process removes lint and other debris from the clothing, improving wrinkle removal. In this way, the driving force of drive mechanism 1 is distributed to each swing support 4 through connecting rod 3, and then transmitted to each hanger 6, effectively reducing the impact on each hanger 6. Furthermore, the independent design of each swing support 4 makes the swinging of each hanger 6 more flexible and smooth, greatly reducing noise, improving the user experience, and enhancing the overall system performance.

[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the swing bracket 4 includes a base 401 and a first connecting part 402. The base 401 is connected to the clothes hanger 5, and the first connecting part 402 protrudes from one side of the base 401 and is connected to the connecting rod 3. Specifically, in conjunction with... Figure 1As shown, when the eccentric shaft 2 drives the connecting rod 3 to swing back and forth, the connection point between the swing bracket 4 and the base 401 is taken as the center of rotation. The connecting rod 3 drives the swing bracket 4 to rotate back and forth through the first connecting part 402, thereby realizing the twisting of the clothes hanger 6.

[0047] This configuration, through the cooperation of the base 401 and the first connecting part 402, provides ample vertical installation space through reasonable layout and planning, facilitating the connection of the swing bracket 4 to the connecting rod 3 and the clothes hanger 5 respectively.

[0048] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rod 3 is provided with a first through hole 301 that matches the first connecting part 402, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first connecting part 402 passes through the first through hole 301. The number of first through holes 301 depends on the number of swing brackets 4.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the swing structure of the clothes hanger also includes a first stop 7, which is disposed at the end of the first connecting part 402 and abuts against the connecting rod 3. The first stop 7 is adapted to prevent the swing bracket 4 from disengaging from the connecting rod 3. Optionally, the first stop 7 is a screw, and the end face of the first connecting part 402 is provided with a threaded hole adapted to the screw. Figure 2 As shown, the first connecting part 402 passes through the first through hole 301, then the washer 12 is placed, the screw is screwed into the threaded hole and tightened to reliably connect the swing bracket 4 and the connecting rod 3.

[0050] This configuration ensures a stable connection between the swing bracket 4 and the connecting rod 3, effectively preventing the swing bracket 4 from separating from the connecting rod 3 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection between the swing bracket 4 and the connecting rod 3.

[0051] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the swing structure of the clothes hanger also includes a first bearing 8, which is sleeved on the first connecting part 402 and disposed between the first through hole 301 and the first connecting part 402. This arrangement allows for more flexible and smooth movement between the swing bracket 4 and the connecting rod 3, resulting in lower noise. Especially during the swinging process, it significantly reduces operating noise and improves user comfort.

[0052] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the clothes hanger 5 is provided with a second connecting part 501, such as... Figure 5As shown, the base 401 is provided with a second through hole 4011 that matches the second connecting part 501, and the second connecting part 501 passes through the second through hole 4011. The second connecting part 501 adopts a flat shaft structure, and the shape of the second through hole 4011 matches the shape of the second connecting part 501 to prevent unnecessary rotation of the clothes hanger 5 and ensure that the clothes hanger 5 can reliably rotate and swing with the swing bracket 4.

[0053] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the swing structure of the clothes hanger also includes a second stop 9, which is disposed at the end of the second connecting part 501 and abuts against the base 401. The second stop 9 is adapted to prevent the clothes hanger 5 from detaching from the base 401. Specifically, the second stop 9 is a locking nut, and the outer wall of the second connecting part 501 is provided with an external thread adapted to the locking nut. Figure 1 As shown, the second connecting part 501 passes through the second through hole 4011, then a washer is placed, and the locking nut is screwed into the second connecting part 501 and tightened to reliably connect the clothes hanger 5 to the swing bracket 4.

[0054] This design ensures a stable connection between the swing bracket 4 and the hanger 5, effectively preventing the swing bracket 4 from separating from the hanger 5 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection between the swing bracket 4 and the hanger 5.

[0055] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the swing structure of the clothes hanger also includes a support bracket 10, and the swing bracket 4 is movably mounted on the support bracket 10, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown, the support bracket 10 is provided with a third through hole 1001 adapted to the hanger 5. The hanger 5 passes through the third through hole 1001 and is connected to the swing bracket 4. Specifically, the garment care machine is provided with a housing, which includes an outer shell and an inner liner, with the inner liner disposed inside the outer shell. The support bracket is fixedly installed on the top outer side of the inner liner, and the support bracket is located between the outer shell and the inner liner. The top of the inner liner is provided with multiple through holes adapted to each hanger 5. Each hanger 5 passes through the corresponding through hole and extends into the inner liner.

[0056] With this configuration, the support bracket 10 provides a reliable support platform for the swing structure of the clothes hanger, offers ample space for installation and arrangement, improves the overall stability of the structure, and ensures the long-term reliable operation of the swing structure of the clothes hanger.

[0057] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2As shown, the swing structure of the clothes hanger also includes a second bearing 11. The second bearing 11 is sleeved on one end of the clothes hanger 5 near the swing bracket 4, and is located between the third through hole 1001 and the clothes hanger 5. This arrangement allows the movement of the clothes hanger 5 to be smoother through the second bearing 11, significantly reducing friction and wear between the support bracket 10 and the clothes hanger 5, thus reducing noise and improving the user experience.

[0058] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the drive mechanism 1 includes a motor 101 and a mounting bracket 102. An eccentric shaft 2 is provided at the output end of the motor 101 to drive the eccentric shaft 2 to rotate. The mounting bracket 102 is mounted on the support bracket 10, and the motor 101 is mounted on the mounting bracket 102.

[0059] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mounting bracket 102 includes a vertical plate 1021, a base plate 1022, and a pair of reinforcing ribs 1023. The vertical plate 1021, base plate 1022, and pair of reinforcing ribs 1023 are integrally bent to enhance their overall structural performance. The pair of reinforcing ribs 1023 are located on both sides of the vertical plate 1021, and the base plate 1022 is a U-shaped bent plate. The pair of reinforcing ribs 1023 are connected to the two side walls of the U-shaped bent plate, for example, by welding or bolting. Thus, the mounting bracket 102 forms a stable support structure.

[0060] The upright plate 1021 is provided with a clearance hole 10211 through which the output end of the motor 101 passes. The motor 101 is connected to the upright plate 1021 via a flange. The flange and the upright plate 1021 can be bolted together to fix the motor 101 to the mounting bracket 102. The mounting bracket 102 and the support bracket 10 can be bolted together to fix the mounting bracket 102 to the support bracket 10.

[0061] With this configuration, the drive mechanism 1 is reliably mounted on the support bracket 10 and drives the connecting rod 3 to swing horizontally back and forth, thus achieving stable operation of the entire structure.

[0062] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drive mechanism 1 is located in the middle of the connecting rod 3, as... Figure 3 As shown, a waist-shaped hole 302 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 3. The waist-shaped hole 302 extends along the height direction of the connecting rod 3. The eccentric shaft 2 is inserted into the waist-shaped hole 302 and slides along the waist-shaped hole 302. In this embodiment, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the length direction of link 3 is perpendicular to the height direction of link 3.

[0063] This configuration, with the drive mechanism 1 centrally located, effectively saves space, resulting in a more compact structure and more flexible and convenient installation. Furthermore, the eccentric shaft 2 slides along the height of the connecting rod 3 within the oblong hole 302, allowing the connecting rod 3 to adjust its relative position to the drive mechanism 1 during left and right swings, increasing the flexibility of the motion stroke and preventing jamming. In addition, the direct connection between the drive mechanism 1 and the connecting rod 3 via the eccentric shaft 2 eliminates the need for an intermediate transmission mechanism, reducing noise, lowering costs, and facilitating assembly.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect provides a garment care machine, including a hanger swing structure as described in the various embodiments above. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is roughly similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect of the hanger swing structure described above, and therefore will not be repeated here.

[0065] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
