Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radiator technology, and in particular to a radiator with a clothes drying function. Background Technology
[0002] Radiators are a common type of indoor heating device that heats a room by transferring heat from hot water or steam into the air. Radiators are typically made of metal (such as steel, aluminum, or cast iron) and have a series of fins or tubes. These structural designs increase the surface area in contact with the air, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency. As hot water or steam flows through the interior of the radiator, heat is transferred to the surrounding air through conduction, convection, and radiation, raising the room temperature and achieving the purpose of heating. Radiators are usually installed under windows or in other suitable locations within a room to utilize the natural convection principle of hot air rising and cold air sinking to achieve a uniform distribution of indoor temperature.
[0003] In current home environments, radiator designs primarily focus on their heating function, neglecting the daily need for drying clothes. This leads to difficulties for residents in drying clothes during cold winters due to low outdoor temperatures and limited indoor space. Existing radiators have simple structures and smooth surfaces, lacking design elements suitable for hanging clothes, making it inconvenient to dry clothes indoors. This not only affects the cleanliness and aesthetics of the indoor environment but also increases the time required for clothes to dry, reducing living comfort and efficiency. Utility Model Content

The L-shaped connecting rod 504 is movably connected to both sides of the radiator frame 1, and the extension structure 506 is movably connected to one side of the L-shaped connecting rod 504. The clothes-drying structure 6 includes a clothes-drying rod 601 and a clothes rack slot 603. The clothes-drying rod 601 is fixedly connected to the inside of the extension structure 506, and a through hole 602 is formed on its surface. The swinging structure 7 includes a rotating ring 701, a swinging rod 702, and a transmission rod 704. The rotating ring 701 is rotatably connected inside the through hole 602, and the clothes rack slot 603 is formed on the upper surface of the rotating ring 701. Rod 702 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of rotating ring 701. Drive motor 705 is fixedly connected to the inner side of extension structure 506. Transmission rod 704 is drivenly connected to the output end of drive motor 705. One end of transmission rod 704 is movably connected to the surface of swing rod 702 through sleeve 703. When using radiator, clothes that need to be dried can be hung on one side of radiator frame 1 for drying using a clothes rack. The hook of the clothes rack is hung in through hole 602, and the clothes rack is stuck in clothes rack slot 603. Drive motor 705 of swing structure 7 drives transmission rod 704 to rotate. Transmission rod 704 causes sleeve 703 to swing back and forth on the surface of swing rod 702, and at the same time pulls swing rod 702 to swing at a certain angle, so that clothes rack and clothes to be dried also swing to a certain extent, realizing uniform drying of clothes and air circulation near radiator, improving clothes drying efficiency, avoiding waste of indoor space, and improving living comfort.
[0023] Example 1: A fixed rod 706 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the extension structure 506. A drive motor 705 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the fixed rod 706. A sleeve 703 is slidably connected to the surface of the swing rod 702. The sleeve 703 is rotatably connected to one end of the transmission rod 704. Several sets of swing rods 702 are provided. The sets of swing rods 702 are interconnected by a linkage rod 707. Each set of swing rods 702 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the linkage rod 707. All swing rods 702 are driven to swing synchronously by a linkage rod 707, so that all swing rods 702 can swing synchronously by a drive motor 705.
[0024] Example 2: A radiator body 2 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the radiator frame 1. A water pipe is installed through the surface of the radiator body 2.

The crank 503, which adjusts the height of the lifting structure 5 by rotating the gear 502, can rotate the gear 502 when the clothes drying function of the radiator is not in use. The gear 502 causes the L-shaped connecting rod 504 to descend through the tooth groove 505. After the L-shaped connecting rod 504 descends to the bottom, the extension structure 506 is rotated through the pivot, and the extension structure 506 is folded on the upper surface of the L-shaped connecting rod 504. This allows the clothes drying structure 6 and the swing structure 7 to be folded and stored when the clothes drying function is not in use, which greatly saves space, keeps the indoor environment clean and beautiful, and improves the efficiency of space utilization.
[0025] In use, firstly, manually rotate gear 502 using crank handle 503. Gear 502 meshes with the tooth groove 505 of L-shaped connecting rod 504, causing L-shaped connecting rod 504 to rise within groove 501. Once L-shaped connecting rod 504 has moved to the appropriate position, the extension structure 506 is rotated to one side of L-shaped connecting rod 504 via the action of the pivot. When clothes need to be dried, hang the clothes in the through hole 602 on clothes drying rod 601, and insert the clothes rack into the hanger groove 603. Start drive motor 705, and transmission rod 704 rotates with drive motor 705, causing sleeve 703 to swing back and forth on the surface of swing rod 702. Simultaneously, the linkage rod 707 causes all swing rods 702 to swing synchronously, thereby achieving a certain amplitude of swinging of clothes rack and clothes. This promotes even drying and air circulation of clothes near radiators, improving drying efficiency. The entire process not only saves indoor space but also maintains a clean and aesthetically pleasing environment, enhancing living comfort.
