Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of HVAC equipment technology, specifically relating to an electric towel rack that is easy to assemble and disassemble. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and higher requirements for home hygiene, electric towel racks, as a type of HVAC equipment that combines drying, heating, and towel hanging functions, have gradually become a common feature in modern homes. They hang towels on a bracket and use a built-in heating module to quickly dry towels and clothing. However, existing electric towel rack installation methods still have many shortcomings, seriously affecting user experience and product promotion. The heating element often experiences a series of mechanical failures in humid and hot environments. Therefore, it is not only necessary to be easy to install, but also easy to repeatedly disassemble and reassemble to meet daily maintenance and repair needs.

[0003] Most electric towel racks on the market are wall-mounted, requiring drilling holes in the wall and fixing with expansion bolts or self-tapping screws for a rigid connection. While this method ensures structural stability, it has significant drawbacks: firstly, it's complex to install; secondly, wall damage is irreversible; and thirdly, disassembly and maintenance are difficult. Some lightweight designs use suction cups or adhesive layers for nail-free installation, but these are typically just the towel rack itself directly attached to the wall. Suction cups have poor stability, especially prone to failure in warm and humid environments, while adhesive layers make disassembly and maintenance difficult once the connection is established. Finally, some electric towel racks use floor-standing brackets, which are bulky and take up a lot of space.

[0004] In view of the aforementioned problems, it is necessary to design an electric towel rack that is simple in structure, low in cost, and easy to assemble and disassemble for daily maintenance and repair. To this end, the applicant has ingeniously designed this technical solution. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an easy-to-assemble and disassemble electric towel rack, comprising a left branch pipe, a right branch pipe symmetrically arranged with respect to the left branch pipe, and a set of connecting pipes spaced apart along the height direction between the left and right branch pipes. The left and right branch pipes are interconnected through the connecting pipes and contain water inside. An electric heating device for heating the water is provided at the lower end of the right branch pipe. The feature is that a mounting bracket fixed to the wall is provided near the middle position between the left and right branch pipes. A pressure member is provided at each of the left and right ends of the mounting bracket on the side facing the connecting pipe. The mounting bracket and the pressure member cooperate to clamp and fix the connecting pipe at the corresponding position to realize the installation and fixation of the electric towel rack. The pressure member and the mounting bracket are connected in a detachable manner by fasteners.

[0007] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the left branch pipe, the right branch pipe and the connecting pipe are all hollow tubular structures. The left branch pipe has a left branch pipe cavity that is closed at the top and bottom and communicates only with the connecting pipe.
