Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothes drying rack technology, and in particular to a lateral flipping system and method for a clothes drying rod. The clothes drying rod can be switched between inside and outside the main unit through this system to achieve storage and unfolding. Background Technology

[0002] As a common household appliance, clothes drying racks have garnered significant attention for their functionality and design. Traditional clothes drying racks typically consist of a ceiling-mounted main unit and a retractable drying rod, which is exposed when not in use, taking up space and affecting aesthetics. To address this issue, some concealed clothes drying racks have emerged on the market, but these concealment methods often have certain limitations.

[0003] In the prior art, a typical concealed clothes drying rack achieves its concealment function by raising the drying rods and hiding them inside the main unit or ceiling. For example, patent CN221645364U, "A Clothes Drying Rack with Concealed Drying Rods," discloses a clothes drying rack with concealed drying rods, which includes a main unit and two height-adjustable drying rods. The main unit includes a fixed panel, a fixed base plate, and movable base plates located on both sides of the fixed base plate. The movable base plates are equipped with a drive device for raising and lowering the drying rods. The fixed panel is located directly below the fixed base plate. A main motor is installed on the fixed base plate to drive the movable base plates on both sides to move horizontally relative to the fixed base plate, moving them synchronously away from or towards the fixed base plate. Under the action of the drive device, when the two drying rods rise to the upper side of the fixed panel and are located below the movable base plates, the main motor moves the movable base plates horizontally inward, causing the drying rods to move horizontally inward with the movable base plates until they are hidden behind the fixed panel. The main motor moves the movable base plate horizontally outward, causing the drying rod to follow the movable base plate and move horizontally outward beyond the back of the fixed panel. Further, the drying rod is lowered by the drive device to below the fixed panel.

[0004] However, this existing technology of concealed clothes drying racks has the following drawbacks:

[0005] Limited ways to hide the drying rod: The drying rod is hidden behind the fixed panel by moving horizontally. Although it achieves the hiding function to a certain extent, the integrity of the lower surface of the clothes drying rack is still affected, and the drying rod cannot be completely hidden, which affects the aesthetics.

[0006] Complex structure: It requires a complex drive device and main motor to be installed on the movable base plate, and the horizontal movement of the movable base plate is achieved through a gear and rack mechanism, which increases the complexity and cost of the system.

[0007] Inconvenient to operate: The raising, lowering and horizontal movement of the drying rack requires multiple steps, which is not convenient for users and is prone to malfunction during use.

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, engineers aim to develop a clothes drying rack with a side-concealed drying rod. This design hides the drying rod from the side of the drying rack into the main unit, maintaining the integrity of the lower surface of the drying rack when not in use, and allowing for easy unfolding of the drying rod when needed, ensuring smooth raising and lowering of the drying rod.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it will not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0034] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this utility model is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Similarly, "first" and "second" are only for ease of understanding and have no other directional meaning, and cannot be considered as limitations on this utility model.

[0035] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a lateral flipping system for a drying rack, including a main unit 1 and horizontal drying racks 9. Both ends of each horizontal drying rack 9 are connected to the main unit 1 via traction ropes 6. The side wall of the main unit 1's housing has recessed horizontal grooves 2, each horizontal groove 2 matching a horizontal drying rack 9. Two rotating parts 4 are hinged within the horizontal grooves 2 via elastic reset members 3. Each rotating part 4 has a guide wheel 5, the guide wheel 5's rotation axis being horizontal. Each traction rope 6 is connected to the horizontal drying rack 9 via the guide wheel 5. Figure 2-3 As shown, when the rotating component 4 flips outward, the guide wheel 5 is located outside the main unit 1, and the traction rope 6 passes over the upper side of the guide wheel 5 and then turns to vertically suspend the horizontal drying rod 9. After the horizontal drying rod 9 rises and abuts against the rotating component 4, the pull force of the traction rope 6 causes the rotating component 4 and the horizontal drying rod 9 to flip inward and enter the horizontal groove 2.

[0036] With the assistance of the rotating component, the drying rod automatically and smoothly moves in and out of the main unit without manual intervention, reducing the likelihood of jamming or collisions and thus improving the user experience. The horizontal drying rod 9 is neatly stored within the horizontal groove of the main unit, saving space and enhancing the overall aesthetics of the drying rod system. This prevents the drying rod from taking up too much space when not in use or affecting the cleanliness of the indoor environment due to its exposed state. Furthermore, the rotating component 4 also serves as a support for the guide wheel 5, acting as a fulcrum for suspending the horizontal drying rod 9 and enabling the steering of the traction rope 6. When pulling the drying rod, the traction rope 6 can transmit power more smoothly through the guide wheel 5, reducing friction between the traction rope 6 and the rotating component 4 and extending the service life of the traction rope 6.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, the method for flipping the drying rack is as follows: Figure 3-4 As shown, after the horizontal drying rod 9 rises and presses tightly against the rotating component 4, the pulling force of the traction rope 6 drives the rotating component 4 and the horizontal drying rod 9 directly below it to flip inward from bottom to top, as... Figure 5-6 As shown, the horizontal drying rod 9 flips into the horizontal groove 2 under the action of the rotating component 4. During the release of the traction rope 6, the rotating component 4 gradually resets as the horizontal drying rod 9 moves. This flipping method achieves the flipping and resetting of the drying rod through the retraction and release of the traction rope 6. It is simple to operate, requires no additional power device, and reduces costs. At the same time, this method ensures that the drying rod closely cooperates with the rotating component 4 during the flipping process, achieving a smooth flipping action, improving the usability of the drying rod system and the user experience.

[0038] like Figure 4 , 6 As shown, the rotating component 4 includes a rotating arm 41 and an actuating head 42. A guide wheel 5 is located within the rotating arm 41 and extends beyond its upper contour. The traction rope 6 passes over the guide wheel 5 from the top and then through the actuating head 42. The extended design of the guide wheel 5 enhances the flexibility of the traction rope 6 when the horizontal drying rack 9 is extended and suspended, while also preventing interference and damage to the traction rope 6 during rotation of the rotating component 4. The actuating head 42 provides a stable support point for the horizontal drying rack 9, ensuring that it accurately engages with the rotating component 4 during rotation, achieving a smooth rotation.

[0039] like Figure 7-8 As shown, a rigid support frame 7 is provided within the transverse groove 2. The rigid support frame 7 includes two transversely opposite support walls: a first arm 71 and a second arm 72. A rotating shaft 8 spans between the first arm 71 and the second arm 72, and the rotating component 4 is movably connected to the rigid support frame 7 via the rotating shaft 8. The upper sides of the first arm 71 and the second arm 72 are bent to form mounting portions 70, so as to suspend the rigid support frame 7 within the groove of the main unit. The rigid support frame 7 provides stable support and precise positioning for the rotating component 4, ensuring that the rotating component 4 can rotate smoothly along a preset trajectory during the flipping process. This avoids the drying rack from flipping unevenly or getting stuck due to structural loosening or deformation, thus improving the reliability and durability of the drying rack system. At the same time, the rigid support frame 7 also improves the structural strength of the main unit 1 itself.

[0040] like Figure 7-8As shown, the support wall includes a vertical portion 701 at the inner end and a horizontal portion 702 at the outer end. The rotating member 4 is hinged to the horizontal portion 702. After being flipped, the horizontal drying rod 9 rests on the horizontal portions 702 of the two support walls. This structure allows the drying rod to rest stably on the horizontal portions 702 of the support wall after being flipped, providing support and load-bearing function for the drying rod. This prevents the horizontal drying rod 9 from pressing against the rotating member 4 or the elastic reset member 3, and also prevents the drying rod from swaying or shifting due to gravity, ensuring the stability of the drying rod in the stored state. At the same time, it provides a reliable support foundation for the flipping operation of the drying rod, ensuring the smooth progress of the flipping process.

[0041] like Figure 7-9 As shown, the elastic reset element 3 is a torsion spring located between the rotating element 4 and the rigid support frame 7, and the torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 8. The elastic reset function of the torsion spring allows the rotating element 4 to automatically reset after the traction rope 6 is released, without the need for additional power devices or human intervention, simplifying the structure of the drying rack system and reducing costs. At the same time, the automatic reset function ensures that the drying rack accurately returns to its initial position after each use, facilitating the next use and improving the operating efficiency and user experience of the drying rack system. In addition, the torsion spring also acts as a damper during the entire flipping process, avoiding collisions caused by excessively rapid flipping.

[0042] like Figure 7-9 As shown, the rotating arm 41 includes a first wall 411 and a second wall 412 that are laterally opposed, and a guide wheel 5 is disposed between the first wall 411 and the second wall 412. A limiting wall 413 is provided on the outer side of the rotating arm 41, and a baffle 74 connecting the first arm 71 and the second arm 72 is provided at the outer end of the rigid support frame 7. The limiting wall 413 contacts the baffle 74 to restrict the rotating component 4 from continuing to rotate outward. The limiting structure effectively prevents the rotating component 4 from excessively flipping outward under external force, avoiding collisions or interference between the rotating component 4 and the main housing or other components, protecting the structural integrity of the drying rack system, and ensuring that the range of motion of the drying rack during the flipping process meets the design requirements, thus improving the safety and stability of the drying rack system.

[0043] Preferably, such as Figure 7-9 As shown, the limiting wall 413 and the baffle 74 are mutually cooperating inclined structures. This inclined structure design makes the contact between the limiting wall 413 and the baffle 74 more stable, effectively dispersing external forces and reducing the impact force caused by collisions, further improving the durability and reliability of the drying rack system. At the same time, the limiting wall 413 forms a structure that extends from top to bottom on the outside, so that its exterior has space to accommodate the horizontal drying rack 9, and the horizontal drying rack 9 can stop more smoothly when it rises close to the limit position, avoiding shaking or damage caused by sudden stopping, thus improving the operational stability of the drying rack system.

[0044] In addition, such as Figure 9As shown, the actuating head 42 is provided with a guide hole 421. When the rotating part 4 is rotated outward to its limit position, the guide hole 421 is in a vertical state. The design of the guide hole 421 provides a clear guiding path for the traction rope 6, ensuring that the traction rope 6 can move in the correct direction when pulling the drying rack, avoiding the traction rope 6 from getting tangled or knotted on the rotating part 4, and further improving the operational reliability of the drying rack system. At the same time, when the rotating part 4 is in its limit position, the vertical state of the guide hole 421 also provides a clear reference position for the rotation operation of the drying rack, making it easy for the user to accurately control the rotation action of the drying rack.

[0045] like Figure 9 As shown, the rotating arm 41 and the actuating head 42 are set at an obtuse angle. The rotating arm has a downward-opening, transversely extending groove 43 at its lower end, and a downward-extending hook 44 at the outer end of the groove 43. The upper end of the transverse drying rod 9 has a protruding rib 91 that mates with the groove 43. This mating structure allows the drying rod to accurately engage with the groove 43 and hook 44 of the rotating component 4 during its ascent, achieving a stable connection and support. The obtuse-angled rotating arm 41 and actuating head 42 provide sufficient space for the rising and turning of the drying rod, preventing interference between the drying rod and the rotating component 4, ensuring the drying rod can smoothly complete its rising and turning actions, and improving the operational flexibility and reliability of the drying rod system.

[0046] like Figure 7-9 As shown, the hook 44 extends vertically downward, giving the guide hole 421 on its inner side a longer vertical guiding space, which is beneficial for the vertical guidance of the traction rope 6.

[0047] like Figure 7-9 As shown, the upper end of the horizontal drying rod 9 has a raised rib 91 that extends a long distance along its length direction. The raised rib 91 is provided with a spaced groove to form a drying trough 912 for hanging clothes hangers.

[0048] This invention introduces a concealed clothes drying system and method with a side-flipping clothes drying rod, as provided by this utility model. Specific examples are used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of the embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand this utility model and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
