[0044] To make the technical problems solved by this application, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are further described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0045] In the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components.

[0046] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature being directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature being directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0047] In the smart home sector, clothes drying racks, as an important product for improving convenience and quality of life, have seen widespread application and rapid development in recent years. As consumers' demands for both aesthetic appeal and practical performance continue to rise, the design details and structural optimization of clothes drying racks have become key areas of research and development for the industry.

[0048] Currently, in the existing clothes drying rack structures on the market, the connection between the drying rod and the telescopic bracket is generally a splicing method. Due to the constraints of various factors such as processing precision, assembly process and material characteristics during the design and manufacturing process, it is difficult to achieve a perfect seamless connection between the drying rod and the telescopic bracket.

[0049] Specifically, on the exterior surface of clothes racks, especially the lower surface (the surface users can easily see when they look up), noticeable gaps often form at the joints. These gaps severely damage the product's aesthetic integrity, making the clothes rack appear rough and unrefined, failing to meet consumers' expectations for a high-quality home product. In a modern home decoration style increasingly pursuing simplicity, beauty, and integration, such aesthetic defects undoubtedly reduce the clothes rack's competitiveness in the market. On the other hand, these gaps become channels for stains to penetrate. During daily use, clothes racks inevitably come into contact with dust, clothing fibers, water stains, and other contaminants. Due to the gaps, these contaminants easily penetrate into the internal structure of the drying rod and telescopic bracket. Over time, these contaminants accumulate in the gaps, not only causing dust accumulation on the product surface, affecting its appearance, but also breeding bacteria, mold, and other harmful microorganisms, producing odors and posing a potential threat to the user's health. At the same time, accumulated stains increase the difficulty of cleaning, requiring consumers to spend more time and effort cleaning these hard-to-reach gaps, causing significant inconvenience in daily use.

[0050] Therefore, how to improve the connection structure between the drying rod and the telescopic bracket in the clothes drying rack, eliminate the gap problem on the appearance surface, and improve the appearance quality and ease of cleaning of the product has become a technical problem that the clothes drying rack industry urgently needs to solve.

[0051] To overcome the above technical problems, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a clothes rack 10, including:

[0052] The clothes rack body 1 includes a connected drying rod 11 and a suspension beam 12;

[0053] The bottom cover 2 is installed on the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, and the lower surface of the bottom cover 2 serves as the outer appearance surface of the bottom side of the clothes rack 10, and the lower surface of the bottom cover 2 is a complete continuous surface.

[0054] In the structure of the main body 1 of the clothes rack, the drying rod 11 is a key component for hanging clothes. Its length, shape, and other design can be customized according to actual needs to meet the drying requirements of different quantities and types of clothes. The suspension beam 12 serves to support and suspend the entire clothes rack 10. It is usually connected to the lifting mechanism of the clothes drying machine to realize the lifting function of the clothes rack 10, making it convenient for users to take and put away clothes. For example, some clothes drying machines have a telescopic bracket between the main unit 20 and the clothes rack 10 to maintain the stability of the clothes rack 10. In this case, the lower guide rail of the telescopic bracket can be used as the suspension beam 12.

[0055] In this embodiment, the main body 1 of the clothes rack is generally a frame structure, which is conventionally set in a square frame shape, but can also be set in a circular frame, racetrack-shaped frame, polygonal frame, etc., according to the needs.

[0056] The bottom cover 2 is installed on the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, covering the lower surface of the clothes rack body 1. The lower surface of the bottom cover 2 serves as the exterior surface of the bottom side of the clothes rack 10, and this lower surface is designed as a complete, continuous surface, meaning that the lower surface of the bottom cover 2 has no seams or other defects. The material of the bottom cover 2 can be selected according to actual needs, such as plastic or metal, and must have a certain degree of durability to withstand external forces such as friction and impact during daily use. The bottom cover 2 is generally a one-piece molded structure, which can be achieved through rapid prototyping processes such as injection molding and sheet metal processing, but is not limited to these.

[0057] During installation, the base cover 2 is fixed to the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, completely concealing any gaps that might have existed at the joints on the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1. Because the lower surface of the base cover 2 is a continuous surface, the bottom side of the clothes rack 10 appears as a single unit, eliminating the appearance of gaps. Simultaneously, the base cover 2 also forms a physical barrier, preventing dust, stains, and other contaminants from directly penetrating into the internal structure of the clothes rack body 1, reducing the possibility of dust and dirt accumulation.

[0058] In summary, the clothes rack 10 provided in this embodiment has at least the following beneficial effects: the lower surface of the base cover 2 is a complete and continuous surface, making the bottom side of the clothes rack 10 look cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing, enhancing the overall integrity and refinement of the product, satisfying consumers' pursuit of high-quality home furnishing products, and improving the product's competitiveness in the market. The gaps on the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1 are covered, reducing the exposed gaps and lowering the possibility of dirt accumulating in the gaps. Furthermore, since there are no seams on the bottom side of the exterior surface, the problem of dirt accumulating in the seams on the exterior surface is effectively eliminated. Users can easily wipe the exterior surface of the clothes rack 10 clean with simple tools such as a damp cloth, greatly saving cleaning time and effort.

[0059] In one embodiment, the clothes rack body 1 is square-shaped and includes two parallel drying rods 11, with the suspension beam 12 vertically connected between the two drying rods 11; the bottom cover 2 is square-shaped, corresponding to the shape of the clothes rack body 1.

[0060] The main body of the clothes rack 1 is generally square-shaped, a simple and regular structure that meets the needs of most home spaces and is easy to install and arrange. It consists of two parallel drying rods 11. This parallel design ensures relatively even spacing between clothes during drying, promoting ventilation and drying. A suspension beam 12 vertically connects the two drying rods 11. This vertical connection ensures the structural stability of the main body of the clothes rack 1, allowing the drying rods 11 to stably bear the weight of the clothes. Simultaneously, the suspension beam 12, as the part connecting to the lifting mechanism of the clothes rack, reliably enables the lifting function of the clothes rack 10.

[0061] The base cover 2 is a rectangular frame that corresponds to the shape of the clothes rack body 1. This corresponding design allows the base cover 2 to fit perfectly against the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, completely covering the space below the clothes rack body 1. The rectangular base cover 2 not only coordinates with the appearance of the clothes rack body 1, but also ensures that it effectively covers and protects all parts of the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, avoiding gaps or incomplete coverage caused by shape mismatch.

[0062] On the other hand, as can be seen from the above, the clothes rack 10 in this embodiment is also generally square-shaped, with a hollowed-out cavity in the center. This perfectly matches the structural form of the main unit 20. Specifically, after recycling, the clothes rack 10 can be nested around the outer periphery of the main unit 20, achieving a higher degree of integration with the main unit 20, further optimizing the product appearance, reducing the space occupied by the product in the home environment, and improving practicality and aesthetics. Furthermore, the lower surface of the main unit 20 can serve as the exterior surface, and it will not be obstructed by the clothes rack 10. Therefore, the lower surface of the main unit 20 can be configured with structures such as lighting fixtures or displays, further improving practicality and optimizing the appearance, thus increasing the product's attractiveness.

[0063] In one embodiment, the side of the frame furthest from the center of the clothes rack body 1 is the outer side;

[0064] The bottom cover 2 includes a bottom protective plate 21 and an outer protective plate 22 extending upward relative to the bottom protective plate 21. The bottom protective plate 21 covers the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, and the outer protective plate 22 covers the outer side of the clothes rack body 1.

[0065] In this embodiment, the bottom cover 2 includes a bottom protective plate 21 and an outer protective plate 22. The bottom protective plate 21 is relatively flat and its main function is to cover the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, concealing any gaps or connecting parts that may exist below the clothes rack body 1, thus ensuring the integrity of the bottom appearance of the clothes rack 10. The outer protective plate 22 is the part that extends upward relative to the bottom protective plate 21, and its extension direction corresponds to the outer direction of the clothes rack body 1, used to cover the outer part of the clothes rack body 1. This structural design allows the bottom cover 2 to wrap and protect the clothes rack body 1 from multiple directions.

[0066] Preferably, the bottom protective plate 21 and the outer protective plate 22 are integrally formed to avoid gaps between them.

[0067] The combined design of the bottom protective plate 21 and the outer protective plate 22 provides comprehensive coverage of the bottom and outer sides of the clothes rack body 1. No matter the angle from which the user observes the clothes rack 10 (including when observing the side wall of the clothes rack 10 at an angle upwards), no seams or other factors affecting the appearance are visible, greatly enhancing the overall aesthetics of the clothes rack 10 and making it more refined and upscale, better meeting consumers' requirements for the appearance of home furnishing products. In addition, the outer protective plate 22 not only improves the appearance but also provides extra protection for the clothes rack body 1. It prevents damage to the outer side of the clothes rack body 1 from external collisions and scratches, while also preventing dust and stains from entering the interior of the clothes rack 10 from the sides, further improving the cleanliness and lifespan of the clothes rack 10.

[0068] In one embodiment, combined with Figures 6-8The bottom protective plate 21 is connected to the outer protective plate 22 on both sides, and the two outer protective plates 22 cover the outer sides of the two drying rods 11 respectively.

[0069] This embodiment is mainly designed for a retractable clothes rack 10. If the drying rods 11 extend in the left and right directions, then the two drying rods 11 are respectively covered by outer protective plates 22 in the front and back directions. However, the front and back sides of the clothes rack 10 are not covered, so that the drying rods 11 can extend and retract normally.

[0070] This design ensures the aesthetic appeal of the clothes rack 10 while fully considering the need for extendable functionality. The outer protective plate 22 effectively conceals the gaps on the outside of the drying rod 11, improving the overall appearance quality of the clothes rack 10. The unobstructed design on the front and back sides ensures that the drying rod 11 can extend and retract normally, meeting the user's requirement to adjust the length of the clothes rack 10 according to actual drying needs.

[0071] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 7 The top side of the outer protective plate 22 is provided with an inwardly extending latch 24, which is fastened to the clothes rack body 1.

[0072] The outer protective panel 22 extends upwards to cover the outer side of the drying rod 11. An additional inwardly extending latch 24 is provided on its top side. The latch 24 is part of the outer protective panel 22, has a certain length and shape, is typically thin, and curves or protrudes inwards towards the clothes rack body 1. When the outer protective panel 22 is installed onto the clothes rack body 1, the latch 24 can fasten to the top side of the clothes rack body 1, achieving a fixed connection between the two.

[0073] The snap-fit ​​connection method is simple to operate, requiring no complicated tools or professional skills. Users or installers can quickly and easily install the outer protective plate 22 onto the clothes rack body 1, greatly shortening installation time and improving installation efficiency. The snap-fit ​​connection method eliminates the need for additional screws or other fasteners to be exposed, avoiding the problem of fasteners affecting the appearance of the clothes rack 10, making the clothes rack 10 look cleaner and more beautiful, meeting the appearance requirements of modern home products.

[0074] In one embodiment, the side closer to the center of the frame of the clothes rack body 1 is the inner side;

[0075] The bottom cover 2 includes a bottom protective plate 21 and an inner protective plate 23 extending upward relative to the bottom protective plate 21. The bottom protective plate 21 covers the bottom side of the clothes rack body 1, and the inner protective plate 23 covers the inner side of the clothes rack body 1.

[0076] Similarly, the inner guard plate 23 is the part that extends upward relative to the bottom guard plate 21. Its extension direction corresponds to the inner direction of the clothes rack body 1. It is used to cover the inner part of the clothes rack body 1. Together with the bottom guard plate 21 and the outer guard plate 22 mentioned above, it forms a relatively comprehensive wrapping of the clothes rack body 1.

[0077] The combined design of the bottom protective plate 21 and the inner protective plate 23 provides comprehensive coverage of the bottom and inner sides of the clothes rack body 1. No matter which angle the user observes the clothes rack 10 from, no seams or other factors affecting its appearance are visible, greatly enhancing the overall aesthetics of the clothes rack 10 and making it more refined and upscale, better meeting consumers' requirements for the appearance of home furnishing products. Furthermore, the inner protective plate 23 not only improves the appearance but also provides additional protection for the clothes rack body 1. It reduces exposed seams, minimizing the entry of external dust and stains into the clothes rack 10 from the inside, reducing contamination and damage to the internal structure of the clothes rack body 1. It also helps prevent collisions and scratches from external objects, extending the service life of the clothes rack 10.

[0078] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 8-11 It also includes a hanging beam cover 3, with two ends of the hanging beam cover 3 respectively connected to two drying rods 11, and the outer surface of the hanging beam cover 3 is connected to the outer side of the drying rods 11;

[0079] The suspension beam 12 is concealed by the bottom cover 2 and the suspension beam cover 3.

[0080] The hanging beam cover 3 is installed in the main body 1 of the clothes rack, and its two ends are connected to two drying rods 11 respectively. This connection method allows the hanging beam cover 3 to span between the two drying rods 11, serving as a connection and transition. Importantly, the outer surface of the hanging beam cover 3 is connected to the outer surface of the drying rods 11, which means that in terms of appearance, there are no obvious gaps or abrupt transitions between the hanging beam cover 3 and the drying rods 11, forming a relatively smooth and integrated shape.

[0081] The suspension beam 12 is located in the main body 1 of the clothes rack and plays a crucial role in connecting the drying rods 11 and enabling the clothes rack 10 to rise and fall. As an important load-bearing component, its design generally prioritizes meeting load-bearing requirements and usually needs to be coordinated with telescopic brackets, thus its appearance is generally difficult to make aesthetically pleasing. In this embodiment, however, the suspension beam 12 is concealed by the bottom cover 2 and the beam cover 3. The bottom cover 2 conceals the suspension beam 12 from the bottom side of the main body 1 of the clothes rack, while the beam cover 3 conceals the suspension beam 12 from the position between the drying rods 11. Together, they completely enclose the suspension beam 12, preventing it from being exposed and avoiding the problem of the suspension beam 12 affecting the product's appearance.

[0082] Therefore, in this embodiment, the design of connecting the hanging beam cover 3 to the outer side of the drying rod 11 and concealing the hanging beam 12 makes the overall appearance of the clothes rack 10 simpler and more aesthetically pleasing. Without exposed hanging beams 12 and abrupt connection points, the clothes rack 10 looks neater and more organized, meeting the aesthetic requirements of modern home furnishing products and allowing it to better integrate into various home decoration styles. Furthermore, the concealment of the hanging beam 12 by the hanging beam cover 3 and the bottom cover 2 not only improves the appearance but also protects the hanging beam 12. This reduces the entry of dust, stains, and moisture into the hanging beam 12, minimizing rust and corrosion caused by environmental factors, extending the service life of the hanging beam 12, and thus improving the overall reliability and stability of the clothes rack 10.

[0083] During implementation, refer to Figures 3-5 The clothes rack body 1 also includes a connector 14 hidden inside the hanging beam cover 3. The connector 14 connects the drying rod 11 and the hanging beam 12, thereby fixing the drying rod 11 and the hanging beam 12 relative to each other.

[0084] The adapter 14 plays a key role in connecting the drying rod 11 and the suspension beam 12. Through the adapter 14, the drying rod 11 and the suspension beam 12 can be relatively fixed to form a stable overall structure. This means that the drying rod 11 can maintain a certain position and posture under the support of the suspension beam 12, thus meeting the needs of drying clothes.

[0085] Since the adapter 14 is hidden inside the hanging beam cover 3, the adapter 14 is not visible from the outside of the clothes rack 10, making the overall appearance simpler and more beautiful. This design meets the requirements of modern home products for appearance and can be better integrated into various home decoration styles, enhancing the overall aesthetics of the home.

[0086] In one implementation, the hanging beam cover 3 includes a main body 31 and two connectors 32 connected to both ends of the main body 31. The connectors 32 at both ends are respectively inserted into the ends of the two drying rods 11.

[0087] The adapter 14 includes a first connecting part 141 and a second connecting part 142. The first connecting part 141 abuts against the connector 32. A first connecting nail 143 passes through the first connecting part 141 and the connector 32 and is fixedly connected to the drying rod 11. The second connecting part 142 extends to the inner side of the main body 31 and abuts against the side wall of the suspension beam 12. A second connecting nail 144 passes through the second connecting part 142 and is fixedly connected to the suspension beam 12.

[0088] The hanging beam cover 3 consists of a main body 31 and two connectors 32. The main body 31 is the main part of the hanging beam cover 3, which serves to cover and protect the internal structure and coordinate with the overall appearance of the clothes rack 10. The two connectors 32 are respectively connected to both ends of the main body 31. Their function is to connect to the ends of the drying rod 11 to fix the hanging beam cover 3 to the drying rod 11. The connectors 32 are connected to the ends of the drying rod 11 by plugging in. This connection method is simple and direct, and facilitates installation and disassembly.

[0089] The adapter 14 includes a first connecting part 141 and a second connecting part 142. The main function of the first connecting part 141 is to cooperate with the connector 32 of the hanging beam cover 3 to connect with the drying rod 11. The second connecting part 142 is used to connect with the suspension beam 12. The first connecting nail 143 passes through the first connecting part 141 and the connector 32 and fixes the drying rod 11. Through this connection method, the hanging beam cover 3, the adapter 14 and the drying rod 11 are firmly connected together. The second connecting nail 144 passes through the second connecting part 142 and fixes the suspension beam 12, so that the adapter 14 and the suspension beam 12 are also reliably connected.

[0090] In this embodiment, the plug-in connection between the connector 32 of the hanging beam cover 3 and the end of the drying rod 11, as well as the connection between the adapter 14 and the drying rod 11 and the suspension beam 12 via connecting nails, make the installation process simpler and faster. No complicated tools or professional skills are required, allowing users or installers to easily assemble the clothes rack 10, significantly reducing installation time. The plug-in connection combined with the fixing of the connecting nails provides sufficient connection strength. When drying clothes, the weight and external force borne by the drying rod 11 can be effectively transferred to the suspension beam 12 through the connector 32 and adapter 14, ensuring the stability and safety of the overall structure of the clothes rack 10 and preventing loosening or detachment.

[0091] In one embodiment, combined with Figure 11 The main body 31 is provided with a clearance hole 311, which is aligned with the second connecting pin 144. The clearance hole 311 provides clearance space for the installation of the second connecting pin 144. A hole plug 312 is installed in the clearance hole 311.

[0092] When the second connecting pin 144 is installed, due to the presence of the clearance hole 311, the second connecting pin 144 can pass smoothly through the second connecting part 142 of the adapter 14 and enter the suspension beam 12 without being blocked by the main body 31 of the suspension beam cover 3. The clearance hole 311 provides the necessary space for the installation path of the second connecting pin 144, so that the installation process can be carried out smoothly.

[0093] The plug 312 is installed in the clearance hole 311 through a certain method (such as snap-fit, interference fit, etc.) to seal the clearance hole 311. It can prevent dust, debris, etc. from entering the interior of the beam cover 3 through the clearance hole 311, protecting the internal structure from contamination and damage; at the same time, it can also maintain the integrity of the appearance of the beam cover 3, preventing the clearance hole 311 from being directly exposed and affecting aesthetics. Among them, the plug 312 is a component used to seal the clearance hole 311, and is usually made of a material that matches or coordinates with the material of the main body 31 of the beam cover 3.

[0094] In one embodiment, the drying rod 11 is a telescopic rod assembly, which includes a fixed rod 111 and a movable rod 112 that is telescopically installed on the fixed rod 111; the clothes rack body 1 also includes an end beam 13, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the extended ends of the telescopic rods on both sides.

[0095] When the movable rod 112 is in the retracted state, the end beam 13 is positioned above the bottom cover 2, so that the bottom cover 2 can cover the bottom side of the end beam 13.

[0096] The drying rod 11 adopts the form of a telescopic rod assembly, which consists of a fixed rod 111 and a movable rod 112. The fixed rod 111 is the basic part of the drying rod 11, providing a stable support structure for the clothes rack 10. The movable rod 112 is telescopically installed on the fixed rod 111. By telescopically extending and retracting the movable rod 112, the overall length of the drying rod 11 can be adjusted to adapt to different drying space requirements.

[0097] End beam 13 connects to the extended ends of the telescopic rods on both sides. When the movable rod 112 extends, the end beam 13 changes position as the movable rod 112 moves. The end beam 13 serves to connect the two drying rods 11 on both sides and enhance the overall structural stability of the clothes rack 10. During telescopic operation, the end beam 13 provides a gripping position. By pushing and pulling the end beam 13, the two movable rods 112 on both sides can be extended and retracted simultaneously.

[0098] In this embodiment, when the movable rod 112 is retracted, the bottom cover 2 covers the bottom side of the end beam 13, avoiding the visual disharmony that may be caused by the bottom side of the end beam 13 being exposed, making the overall appearance of the clothes rack 10 neater and more beautiful, and enhancing the overall aesthetics of the home environment.

[0099] On the other hand, combining Figure 12 This embodiment also provides a clothes drying rack, including:

[0100] Host 20;

[0101] Mounting cover 30 is disposed around the outer periphery of the host 20, and a receiving groove is formed between the inner periphery of the mounting cover 30 and the outer periphery of the host 20.

[0102] As described above, the clothes rack 10 can be suspended below the main unit 20 in a lifting manner. The clothes rack 10 can be completely stored in the receiving slot, and in the fully stored state, the lower surface of the clothes rack 10 is flush with the lower surface of the main unit 20 and the mounting cover 30.

[0103] The main unit 20 is the core component of the clothes drying rack, responsible for driving the clothes rack 10 to rise and fall, and controlling the operation of the clothes drying rack. It typically contains key components such as a motor, circuit board, and transmission device. The motor drives the transmission device, thereby realizing the raising and lowering operation of the clothes rack 10.

[0104] The mounting cover 30 is arranged around the outer periphery of the main unit 20, and its inner periphery forms a receiving groove with the outer periphery of the main unit 20. The mounting cover 30 not only protects the main unit 20, preventing external dust and debris from entering the main unit 20 and affecting its normal operation, but also provides space for storing the clothes rack 10. The clothes dryer in this embodiment is particularly suitable for fully concealed installation. Specifically, a mounting groove matching the shape of the mounting cover 30 is provided in the ceiling where it is installed. The entire clothes dryer is embedded in the mounting groove, achieving a high degree of integration with the ceiling. The design of the mounting cover 30 needs to consider the fitting accuracy with the main unit 20 and its installation compatibility with the ceiling. Its shape and size should match the mounting groove on the ceiling to ensure smooth embedding and installation.

[0105] Based on this embodiment, the clothes rack 10 has a complete, seamless lower surface, which can achieve a higher degree of integration with the main unit 20 and the mounting cover 30, resulting in a better overall appearance and maintaining a clean and uniform indoor environment.
