[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a drying device that allows users to adjust the second support according to their usage needs and the space requirements of the usage scenario, thereby meeting diverse user needs and improving the user experience.

[0005] This utility model provides a drying device, comprising: a support assembly; a first bracket disposed on the support assembly and extending in a first direction; at least one second bracket rotatably disposed at the end of the first bracket and having a first unfolded state forming a first angle with the first bracket; and at least one positioning assembly disposed on the support assembly and configured to have a first locking state engaging with the second bracket, such that the second bracket forms a second unfolded state forming a second angle with the first bracket, the second angle being smaller than the first angle.

[0006] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component further includes a release state that is separated from the second bracket, allowing the second bracket to rotate to a folded state that is stacked parallel to the first bracket.

[0007] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the first unfolded state, the second bracket abuts against the limiting portion of the first bracket, the first included angle ranges from 150° to 180°, and the second included angle ranges from 80° to 110°.

[0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first end of the positioning component is rotatably disposed on the support component, and the second end of the positioning component is detachably connected to the second bracket.

[0009] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component includes: a support rod; and a first positioning part connected to a first end of the support rod. The first positioning part is a C-shaped structure that cooperates with the round tube of the support component and forms a first opening. The diameter of the first opening is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the support component, so that the round tube of the support component passes through the first opening and is engaged in the first positioning part.

[0010] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component further includes a second positioning part connected to the second end of the support rod. The second positioning part is a C-shaped structure that cooperates with the round tube of the second bracket and forms a second opening. The diameter of the second opening is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the second bracket, so that the second bracket passes through the second opening and is locked in the second positioning part, so that the second bracket is in the second unfolded state.

[0011] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component further includes an extension portion, which is disposed on the first positioning portion and / or the second positioning portion and extends outward in a direction away from the support rod.

[0012] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the support assembly includes: a first support frame, the first end of which is rotatably connected to the first bracket; a connecting component, which is slidably disposed on the first bracket in the first direction; and a second support frame, the first end of which is rotatably connected to the connecting component about a pivot in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the middle portion of which is rotatably connected to the middle portion of the first support frame about the pivot in the second direction, and is configured to be in a first supporting state having a first angle with the first support frame and a first folded state parallel to the first support frame, wherein the first positioning part is engaged with the second support frame and / or the first end of the first support frame.

[0013] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second support frame further includes a second folded state that is stacked parallel to the first bracket and the first support frame.

[0014] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component further includes a third positioning part disposed on the side of the second positioning part away from the second opening. The third positioning part is a C-shaped structure that cooperates with the round tube of the first bracket and forms a third opening. The diameter of the third opening is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the first bracket, allowing the round tube of the first bracket to pass through the third opening and be engaged in the third positioning part, thereby achieving a second locking state in which the third positioning part abuts against the end of the first bracket away from the first support frame. In the second locking state, the second support frame and the first support frame have a second support state with a second angle smaller than the first angle, thereby achieving a second support state in which the height of the first bracket is higher than the height of the first bracket in the first support state.

[0015] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first end of the second support frame is spaced apart from the first bracket to allow the positioning component to slide in the second direction, and in the second locked state, at least a portion of the support rod is located below the first bracket.

[0016] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first bracket and the second bracket are configured to generate heat when energized.

[0017] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the drying device further includes a temperature control component configured to adjust the temperature of the first support and the second support.

[0018] According to the drying device provided by this utility model, during use, rotating the second support can adjust it to a first unfolded state forming a first angle with the first support, or it can adjust it to a second unfolded state forming a second angle with the first support. Since the second angle is smaller than the first angle, the second unfolded state reduces the space occupied by the drying device during use. Users can adjust the second support according to their needs, such as the length and angle of the items to be dried, as well as the space requirements of the usage scenario, to meet diverse user needs and improve the user experience.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0033] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The terms “comprising,” “including,” etc., as used herein indicate the presence of the stated features, steps, operations, and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.

[0034] All terms used herein, including technical and scientific terms, have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art, unless otherwise defined. It should be noted that the terms used herein are to be interpreted in a manner consistent with the context of this specification, and not in an idealized or overly rigid way.

[0035] When using expressions such as "at least one of A, B, and C," the meaning should generally be interpreted according to the understanding of someone skilled in the art. For example, "a system having at least one of A, B, and C" should include, but is not limited to, systems having A alone, having B alone, having C alone, having A and B, having A and C, having B and C, and / or having A, B, and C. Similarly, when using expressions such as "at least one of A, B, or C," the meaning should generally be interpreted according to the understanding of someone skilled in the art. For example, "a system having at least one of A, B, or C" should include, but is not limited to, systems having A alone, having B alone, having C alone, having A and B, having A and C, having B and C, and / or having A, B, and C.

[0036] It should also be noted that the directional terms mentioned in the embodiments, such as "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Throughout the drawings, the same elements are represented by the same or similar reference numerals. Conventional structures or constructions will be omitted where they may cause confusion in understanding this utility model.

[0037] A drying rack can be used to dry or tumble items, reducing the risk of harmful bacteria growth. The drying rack includes a first support and a second support. The first support is generally horizontal. The second support is located at the end of the first support. In use, the second support can be adjusted to be approximately parallel to the first support or at an angle close to 180° to it for drying or tumbling items. When the items being dried are long, they may come into contact with the ground and become soiled. The drying racks in related technologies have limited usability, resulting in limited space for use and failing to meet diverse user needs. Furthermore, items placed on the second support, especially those below it, tend to sag under their own weight, resulting in a significant distance between these items and the second support. This leads to poor drying of items below the second support, with only items above it being easily dried, negatively impacting the user experience.

[0038] An embodiment of this utility model provides a drying device, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drying device includes a support assembly 1, a first bracket 2, at least one second bracket 3, and at least one positioning assembly 4. The first bracket 2 is disposed on the support assembly 1 and extends in a first direction. The second bracket 3 is rotatably disposed at the end of the first bracket 2 and has a first unfolded state forming a first angle with the first bracket 2. The positioning assembly 4 is disposed on the support assembly 1 and is configured to have a first locking state that engages with the second bracket 3, such that the second bracket 3 forms a second unfolded state forming a second angle with the first bracket 2, the second angle being smaller than the first angle.

[0039] In detail, the first support 2 includes a plurality of circular tubes extending in a first direction, which is the X direction of the horizontal plane. The plurality of circular tubes of the first support 2 are evenly spaced in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, which is the Y direction of the horizontal plane. The first support 2 is mounted on the top of the support assembly 1.

[0040] The second support 3 is rotatably mounted to the end of the first support 2 via, but is not limited to, a pivot, gear assembly, worm gear assembly, or any other rotating assembly. One second support 3 may be provided. It is understood that two, three, four, etc., second supports 3 may also be provided, depending on the dimensions of the first support 2 and the second support 3. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two second supports 3 are provided, located at the left and right ends of the first support 2, respectively. Each second support 3 includes multiple circular tubes extending in a second direction. These circular tubes of the second support 3 are spaced apart in a direction away from the first support 2.

[0041] It should be noted that the first support 2 and the second support 3 are used to support items, such as towels, bath towels, and clothing. This allows the drying device to promptly dry the items, preventing them from remaining damp for extended periods and thus preventing the growth of harmful bacteria, mold, mites, and other microorganisms.

[0042] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2 As shown, in the first unfolded state, the second support 3 forms a first angle with the first support 2. Users can adjust the drying device to the first unfolded state and select a drying method according to the size of the item. For example, when drying large items, users can place them on the first support 2 and the second support 3. Examples include quilts and blankets. When drying small items, users can place them on the first support 2 or the tilted second support 3.

[0043] One positioning component 4 can be provided. It is understood that two, three, four, etc., positioning components 4 can also be provided, depending on the number of second brackets 3. The positioning component 4 is, but is not limited to, detachably connected to the second bracket 3 by means of a snap-fit ​​component, a magnetic component, or any other detachable component, so as to have a first locking state of engaging with the second bracket 3.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in the first locked state, the positioning component 4 engages with the second bracket 3, causing the second bracket 3 to form a second angle with the first bracket 2 in the second unfolded state. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, the second bracket 3, located at the left end of the first bracket 2, engages with the positioning component 4 to be in a second unfolded state, forming a second angle with the first bracket 2. (Refer to...) Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second brackets 3 at both ends of the first bracket 2 are engaged with the positioning component 4 to be in a second unfolded state that forms a second angle with the first bracket 2.

[0045] In the second unfolded state, the user can place the item on the second support 3, with the two sides of the item covering the two sides of the second support 3 and hanging down naturally under the action of gravity, increasing the exposed area of ​​the item and facilitating quick drying.

[0046] In this embodiment, during use, rotating the second support 3 can adjust it to either a first unfolded state forming a first angle with the first support 2, or a second unfolded state forming a second angle with the first support 2. Since the second angle is smaller than the first angle, the second unfolded state reduces the space occupied by the drying device during use. Users can adjust the second support 3 according to their needs, such as the length and angle of the items to be dried, as well as the space requirements of the usage scenario, thus meeting diverse user needs and improving the user experience.

[0047] In one exemplary embodiment, the first support 2 and the second support 3 use electric current to heat the heating element, converting electrical energy into heat energy, thereby drying the items erected on the first support 2 and the second support 3.

[0048] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the drying device also includes a temperature control component 5, which is configured to adjust the temperature of the first support 2 and the second support 3.

[0049] In detail, the temperature control component 5 can be mounted on the first bracket 2 or the second bracket 3. The temperature control component 5 can be a touch screen, a mechanical button, a knob, etc. Understandably, the temperature control component 5 can also be a remote control, a mobile terminal, etc.

[0050] In this way, by setting the temperature control component 5, users can easily adjust the temperature of the first bracket 2 and the second bracket 3 according to the ambient temperature or their own needs, further improving the user experience of the drying device.

[0051] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 As shown, the positioning component 4 also includes a release state that is separated from the second bracket 3, allowing the second bracket 3 to be in a folded state that is stacked parallel to the first bracket 2, reducing the space occupied by the drying device and making it easier to store.

[0052] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in the first unfolded state, the second support 3 abuts against the limiting part 21 of the first support 2, with a first included angle ranging from 150° to 180°. For example, the first included angle can be 150°, 155°, 160°, 165°, 170°, 175°, 180°, etc., determined according to actual needs. It should be noted that when the included angle between the second support 3 and the first support 2 is 180°, the second support 3 and the first support 2 are parallel or collinear.

[0053] In detail, at least one limiting part 21 is provided, and the number of limiting parts 21 is greater than or equal to the number of second brackets 3. The limiting parts 21 are provided at the connection position between the first bracket 2 and the second bracket 3. (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the limiting part 21 is located below the second bracket 3 and is provided with an inclined surface that forms a first angle with the first bracket 2.

[0054] When the positioning component 4 is in the released state, the second bracket 3 rotates relative to the first bracket 2 and abuts against the inclined surface of the limiting part 21 to restrict the rotation of the second bracket 3 relative to the first bracket 2, so that the second bracket 3 maintains the first unfolded state.

[0055] In the second unfolded state, the angle formed between the second support 3 and the first support 2 ranges from 80° to 110°. For example, the second angle can be 80°, 85°, 90°, 95°, 100°, 105°, 110°, etc., depending on the actual needs. It should be noted that when the second angle formed between the second support 3 and the first support 2 is 90°, the second support 3 is approximately vertical. In this way, when the item is placed on the second support 3, both ends of the item hang freely under gravity, while the sides of the item cover the sides of the second support 3. This ensures that both sides of the second support 3 are opposite to the item, achieving double-sided drying, reducing wasted drying area on the second support 3, and thus improving drying efficiency.

[0056] In this embodiment, the limiting part 21 provides an upward supporting force to the second support 3, thereby increasing the load-bearing capacity of the second support 3. By setting the positioning component 4 and the limiting part 21, the second support 3 can be rotated and adjusted to either the first unfolded state or the second unfolded state, improving the functionality of the electric heating drying and sun-drying device, meeting different user needs, and enhancing the user experience.

[0057] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first end of the positioning component 4 ( Figure 5 The bottom end of the positioning component 4 is rotatably mounted on the support component 1, and the second end of the positioning component 4 ( Figure 5 The top of the positioning component 4 is detachably connected to the second bracket 3.

[0058] In detail, the positioning component 4 is, but is not limited to, rotatably mounted on the support component 1 via a sleeve, pivot, bearing, or any other rotating component. In this way, the positioning component 4 can rotate relative to the support component 1 to rotate towards the second bracket 3 and be in a first locked state engaged with the second bracket 3, which facilitates operation and improves ease of use.

[0059] The second end of the positioning component 4 is detachably connected to the second bracket 3 via, but is not limited to, a snap-fit ​​component, a magnetic component, a hook component, or any other connecting component 13. This facilitates the detachment and separation of the second end of the positioning component 4 from the second bracket 3, allowing it to be in a released state, enabling the positioning component 4 to rotate relative to the support component 1 and to be suspended under the influence of gravity.

[0060] Understandably, the first end of the positioning component 4 can also be detachably connected to the support component 1, which facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the positioning component 4 and reduces maintenance costs.

[0061] It should be noted that the position where the positioning component 4 engages with the second bracket 3 is adjustable, thereby adjusting the size of the second angle formed between the second bracket 3 and the first bracket 2. This allows users to adjust the position of the second bracket 3 according to their needs, thus satisfying diverse user requirements.

[0062] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the positioning assembly 4 includes a support rod 41 and a first positioning part 42. The first positioning part 42 is connected to the first end of the support rod 41. Figure 5 The bottom end of the middle support rod 41), the first positioning part 42 is a C-shaped structure that cooperates with the round tube of the support component 1, and forms a first opening 421. The diameter of the first opening 421 is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the support component 1, so that the round tube of the support component 1 passes through the first opening 421 and is locked in the first positioning part 42.

[0063] In detail, the first positioning part 42 is disposed at the top of the support component 1. The first positioning part 42 is made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity, such as plastic or steel. Since the first positioning part 42 is a C-shaped structure with a first opening 421, when the positioning component 4 is pushed towards the support component 1 by an external force, the circular tube of the support component 1 is inserted into the first positioning part 42 through the first opening 421. During this process, the position of the first opening 421 of the first positioning part 42 is squeezed by the circular tube of the support component 1, resulting in a slight deformation and an increase in the diameter of the first opening 421, allowing the circular tube of the support component 1 to pass through the first opening 421.

[0064] When the circular tube of the support assembly 1 is placed inside the first positioning part 42, the force exerted by the circular tube of the support assembly 1 on the first opening 421 disappears, and the first opening 421 of the first positioning part 42 is reset. At this time, the diameter of the first opening 421 is smaller than the diameter of the circular tube of the support assembly 1, so as to prevent the circular tube of the support assembly 1 from disengaging from the first positioning part 42 through the first opening 421.

[0065] Furthermore, since the tube of the support component 1 is cylindrical, the first positioning part 42 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the tube of the support component 1, so that the positioning component 4 can rotate relative to the tube of the support component 1.

[0066] According to an embodiment of the present invention, by providing a first positioning part 42, the ease of installing the positioning component 4 on the support component 1 or removing the positioning component 4 from the support component 1 is improved, making it easier to install and remove the positioning component 4 and reducing maintenance costs.

[0067] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the positioning component 4 also includes a second positioning part 43, which is connected to the second end of the support rod 41. Figure 5 The top of the middle support rod 41), the second positioning part 43 is a C-shaped structure that cooperates with the round tube of the second bracket 3, and forms a second opening 431. The diameter of the second opening 431 is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the second bracket 3, so that the second bracket 3 passes through the second opening 431 and is locked in the second positioning part 43, so that the second bracket 3 is in the second unfolded state.

[0068] In detail, the second positioning part 43 is made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity, such as plastic or steel. Since the second positioning part 43 has a C-shaped structure with a second opening 431, when the second support 3 rotates to the second unfolded state, the user rotates the positioning component 4, causing the positioning component 4 to rotate relative to the support component 1. At this time, the second positioning part 43 moves towards the second support 3, so that as the round tube of the second support 3 is inserted into the second positioning part 43 through the second opening 431, the position of the second opening 431 of the second positioning part 43 is compressed by the round tube of the second support 3, causing a slight deformation and increasing the diameter of the second opening 431, allowing the round tube of the second support 3 to pass through the second opening 431.

[0069] When the round tube of the second bracket 3 is placed inside the second positioning part 43, the force exerted by the round tube of the second bracket 3 on the second opening 431 disappears, and the second opening 431 of the second positioning part 43 resets. At this time, the diameter of the second opening 431 is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the second bracket 3, so as to prevent the round tube of the second bracket 3 from passing through the second opening 431. In this way, the second positioning part 43 engages with the round tube of the second bracket 3, thereby achieving a first locking state in which the positioning component 4 engages with the second bracket 3.

[0070] In this implementation, in the first locked state, the positioning component 4 limits the second support 3, so that the second support 3 maintains the second unfolded state, so that the item is placed on the second support 3. The two ends of the item hang freely under the action of gravity, thereby hanging and covering the left and right sides of the second support 3. This allows both sides of the second support 3 to contact the item placed on the second support 3 and dry the item, achieving double-sided drying, reducing the wasted drying area of ​​the second support 3, and thus improving drying efficiency.

[0071] Conversely, during the process of canceling the positioning component 4's restriction on the second bracket 3, an external force is applied to the positioning component 4 and the second bracket 3, causing the second bracket 3 and the positioning component 4 to rotate in a direction away from each other. At this time, the cylindrical tube of the second bracket 3 compresses the second opening 431, causing a slight deformation in the position of the second opening 431 of the second positioning part 43, thus increasing the diameter of the second opening 431. This allows the cylindrical tube of the second bracket 3 to pass through the second opening 431 and separate from the positioning component 4, placing the positioning component 4 in a released state separated from the second bracket 3. In this way, canceling the restriction of the positioning component 4 on the second bracket 3 allows the second bracket 3 to rotate to a first unfolded state or a folded state.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present invention, by providing a second positioning part 43, it is convenient to operate the positioning component 4, so that the positioning component 4 and the second bracket 3 are in a first locked state or a released state, which is convenient to operate and improves the convenience of adjusting the second bracket 3 to the first unfolded state, the second unfolded state or the folded state.

[0073] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the positioning component 4 also includes an extension 45, which is disposed on the first positioning part 42 and / or the second positioning part 43 and extends outward in a direction away from the support rod 41.

[0074] In detail, the extension 45 is integrally formed with the first positioning part 42 and / or the second positioning part 43. The extension 45 may be parallel to the support rod 41 or have an angle with the support rod 41. Specifically, refer to... Figure 8 As shown, the extension 45 on the left side of the second positioning part 43 is approximately parallel to the support rod 41. The extension 45 on the right side of the first positioning part 42 forms an angle with the support rod 41.

[0075] In this embodiment, when the second positioning part 43 separates from the round tube of the second bracket 3, the user can forcefully move the extension part 45 to apply external force to the positioning component 4, thereby separating the second positioning part 43 from the second bracket 3. Similarly, when the first positioning part 42 separates from the round tube of the support component 1, the user can forcefully move the extension part 45 to apply external force to the positioning component 4, thereby separating the first positioning part 42 from the support component 1, achieving the effect of saving effort and convenient operation.

[0076] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the support assembly 1 includes a first support frame 11, a connecting assembly 13, and a second support frame 12. The first end of the first support frame 11 ( Figure 6 The top of the first support frame 11 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 2. The connecting assembly 13 is in the first direction ( Figure 6 The second support frame 12 is slidably mounted on the first bracket 2 in the horizontal direction. The first end of the second support frame 12 ( Figure 6 The top of the second support frame 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting assembly 13 about a pivot in the second direction. The middle part of the second support frame 12 is rotatably connected to the middle part of the first support frame 11 about a pivot in the second direction. It is configured to have a first supporting state with a first angle to the first support frame 11 and a first folding state parallel to the first support frame 11. The first positioning part 42 is engaged at the first end of the second support frame 12 and / or the first support frame 11.

[0077] In detail, the first support frame 11 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 2 via a sleeve, bearing, rotating shaft or any other rotating component.

[0078] Reference Figure 9As shown, the connecting assembly 13 includes a first mounting hole for the cylindrical tube of the first bracket 2 to be inserted and a second mounting hole for the cylindrical tube of the second support frame 12 to be inserted. The first mounting hole extends in a first direction. The second mounting hole extends in a second direction. Specifically, the cylindrical tube of the first bracket 2 is inserted into the first mounting hole of the connecting assembly 13, that is, the connecting assembly 13 is sleeved on the outside of the cylindrical tube of the first bracket 2, allowing the connecting assembly 13 to slide relative to the cylindrical tube of the first bracket 2. The cylindrical tube of the second support frame 12 is inserted into the second mounting hole of the connecting assembly 13, allowing the second support frame 12 to rotate relative to the connecting assembly 13.

[0079] Furthermore, the middle portion of the second support frame 12 is rotatably connected to the middle portion of the first support frame 11 about a pivot in the second direction, allowing the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 to rotate relative to each other. The second support frame 12 has a first supported state with a first included angle to the first support frame 11 and a first folded state parallel to the first support frame 11.

[0080] It should be noted that, in the first supported state, the first included angle is the angle formed by the upper half of the first support frame 11 and the upper half of the second support frame 12.

[0081] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in the first supported state, the second support frame 12 and the first support frame 11 have a first angle, such that the first support 2 is at a first height, so that items can be placed or suspended on the first support 2. (Refer to...) Figure 10 As shown, the second support frame 12 and the first support frame 11 are in a first folded state parallel to each other to reduce the space occupied during storage and facilitate storage.

[0082] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 10 As shown, the second support frame 12 also includes a second folded state that is stacked parallel to the first support frame 2 and the first support frame 11.

[0083] In detail, after the second support frame 12 rotates to a first folded state parallel to the first support frame 11, the first bracket 2 is brought closer to the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 in the first folded state, so that the first bracket 2 is stacked parallel to the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12 to be in a second folded state, which further reduces the storage space occupied and improves the convenience of storage.

[0084] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the positioning component 4 also includes a third positioning part 44, which is disposed on the side of the second positioning part 43 opposite to the second opening 431. Figure 8The top surface of the second positioning part 43). The third positioning part 44 is a C-shaped structure that mates with the round tube of the first bracket 2, and forms a third opening 441. The diameter of the third opening 441 is smaller than the diameter of the round tube of the first bracket 2, allowing the round tube of the first bracket 2 to pass through the third opening 441 and be engaged in the third positioning part 44, so that the end of the third positioning part 44 and the first bracket 2 away from the first support frame 11 ( Figure 6 The second locking state is achieved when the left end of the first bracket 2 is engaged.

[0085] In the second locked state, the second support frame 12 and the first support frame 11 have a second support state with a second angle smaller than the first angle, so that the first bracket 2 is at a second height higher than the first height.

[0086] It should be noted that, in the second support state, the second included angle is the angle formed by the upper half of the first support frame 11 and the upper half of the second support frame 12. When the second included angle is smaller than the first included angle, it indicates that the top of the first support frame 11 and the top of the second support frame 12 move towards each other, thereby increasing the height of the first support 2. Specifically, in the second support state, the height of the first support 2 is higher than that in the first support state.

[0087] In detail, the third opening 441 of the third positioning part 44 faces the round tube of the first bracket 2. Since the third positioning part 44 is a C-shaped structure with the third opening 441, under the action of external force, the positioning component 4 moves towards the round tube of the first bracket 2. During the process of the round tube of the first bracket 2 being inserted into the third positioning part 44 through the third opening 441, the position of the third opening 441 of the third positioning part 44 is squeezed by the round tube of the first bracket 2, causing a slight deformation and increasing the diameter of the third opening 441. This allows the round tube of the first bracket 2 to be locked inside the third positioning part 44 through the third opening 441, resulting in a second locking state where the third positioning part 44 and the end of the first bracket 2 away from the first support frame 11 abut against each other, making operation convenient.

[0088] In this way, the top of the second support frame 12 is engaged with the first positioning part 42. The third positioning part 44 is sleeved on the outside of the round tube of the first bracket 2 and abuts against the end of the first bracket 2 away from the first support frame 11. The positioning component 4 provides a thrust to the second support frame 12, so that the second support frame 12 and the first support frame 12 maintain a second support state, thereby increasing the height of the first bracket 2. When the first bracket 2 is used to hang long items, it meets the user's need to adjust the height of the first bracket 2, avoids the items from contacting the ground and getting dirty, and further improves the user experience.

[0089] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 and Figure 9As shown, the first end of the second support frame 12 ( Figure 6 The top of the first support frame 11 is spaced apart from the first bracket 2 to allow the positioning component 4 to slide in the second direction. In the second locked state, at least a portion of the support rod 41 is located below the first bracket 2.

[0090] Specifically, the connecting component 13 is disposed between the second support frame 12 and the first bracket 2, such that the second support frame 12 is located below the first bracket 2 and is spaced apart to form a space that allows the positioning component 4 to slide in the second direction. During the movement of the third positioning part 44 toward the circular tube closer to the first bracket 2, at least a portion of the support rod 41 is located below the first bracket 2, preventing interference with the circular tube of the first bracket 2 from being inserted into the third positioning part 44. Simultaneously, having at least a portion of the support rod 41 below the first bracket 2 also reduces the impact on items erected on the first bracket 2.

[0091] According to the drying device provided by this utility model, during use, rotating the second support 3 can adjust the second support 3 to a first unfolded state forming a first angle with the first support 2, or it can adjust the second support 3 to a second unfolded state forming a second angle with the first support 2. Since the second angle is smaller than the first angle, the second unfolded state reduces the space occupied by the drying device during use. Users can adjust the second support 3 according to their needs, such as the length and angle of the items to be dried, as well as the space requirements of the usage scenario, to meet diverse user needs and improve the user experience.
