Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying technology, and in particular to a drying component and a clothes drying machine. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, more and more people are using clothes drying racks, which help people dry clothes more conveniently and effortlessly, improving their quality of life. With the increasing use of clothes drying racks, people's demands for them are also growing. Most clothes drying racks on the market are equipped with a quilt drying rod, which is connected to the clothes drying rod via a movable rod and a fixed rod. When not in use, the quilt drying rod can be placed on the fixed rod. When in use, the quilt drying rod can be taken out and hung horizontally or vertically relative to the clothes drying rod, allowing for the simultaneous drying of clothes and quilts. However, regardless of the method, because the distance between the clothes drying rod and the quilt drying rod is relatively short, the clothes and quilts will come into contact with each other, resulting in poor drying efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a clothes drying assembly and a clothes drying machine to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a drying component and a clothes drying machine that can solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] Firstly, a drying assembly is provided, comprising:

[0007] The main body of the drying rack has parallel first drying rods on its left and right sides;

[0008] A fixing rod is provided at both ends of the main body of the drying rack and is connected to the first drying rod. The fixing rod is covered with a decorative box, and the decorative box and the fixing rod are provided with limiting structures.

[0009] A movable rod, one end of which is movably connected to the fixed rod, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a second drying rod. The movable rod is a telescopic rod, and the second drying rod can move in the left and right direction through the limiting structure to move closer to or further away from the first drying rod.

[0010] As an optional implementation, the fixed rod has a first horizontal groove, and the movable rod has a first connecting member, through which the movable rod slides or rotates within the first groove.

[0011] As an optional implementation, the limiting structure is a limiting block disposed on the decorative box. When the second drying rod is unfolded away from the first drying rod, the movable rod abuts against the limiting block and works together with the first connecting member to keep the movable rod in a horizontal state.

[0012] As an optional implementation, the movable rod is provided with a first telescopic rod and a second telescopic rod. The first telescopic rod is movably connected to the first sliding groove through the first connector, and the second telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the second drying rod.

[0013] As an optional implementation, the first telescopic rod is provided with a second sliding groove, and the second telescopic rod (303) is provided with a second connecting member to slide within the second sliding groove.

[0014] As an optional implementation, the second slide has a flange protruding from the inside of the first telescopic rod; the end of the second telescopic rod away from the second drying rod is provided with an end cap, and the end cap is provided with a positioning block, which cooperates with the flange to position the second telescopic rod inside the first telescopic rod.

[0015] As an optional implementation, two movable rods are connected to the first slide groove, and each movable rod is connected to the second drying rod. Both movable rods can slide or rotate within the first slide groove to drive the second drying rod to slide on the left and right sides of the drying rack body.

[0016] As an optional implementation, the first slide groove is provided with a positioning groove. When the first connecting member moves to the positioning groove, the movable rod is restricted to the position of the positioning groove.

[0017] As an alternative implementation, the upper part of the decorative box is open, and the movable rod can move above the main body of the drying rack through the open.

[0018] Secondly, a clothes drying rack is provided, comprising:

[0019] The main unit is equipped with a power unit;

[0020] As described above, the drying assembly is connected to the main unit via a folding assembly.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution, this disclosure has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0022] The drying assembly includes a first drying rod, a fixed rod, and a movable rod on the main body of the drying rack. The fixed rod is covered by a decorative box, and both the fixed rod and the decorative box have limiting structures. The movable rod is a telescopic rod, with one end connected to the fixed rod and the other end connected to a second drying rod. The second drying rod can move left and right through the limiting structure to move closer to or further away from the first drying rod. In other words, the second drying rod can be unfolded horizontally relative to the first drying rod to achieve horizontal drying. Because the movable rod is telescopic, it can be unfolded to a longer length while maintaining the same retracted length as a regular movable rod. Therefore, it can move the second drying rod further away from the first drying rod, increasing the horizontal distance between the two rods. Compared to traditional clothes dryers, this avoids the problem of clothes and bedding interfering with each other when drying together, achieving a better drying effect. Attached Figure Description

[0031] To make the technical problems solved by this utility model, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are further described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0032] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly 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. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly 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 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 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.

[0034] Please refer to the instruction manual attached. Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides a drying assembly, including a drying rack body 10 with first drying rods 101 parallel to each other on its left and right sides; a fixed rod 20 located at the front and rear ends of the drying rack body 10 and connected to the first drying rods 101, with a decorative box 21 covering the fixed rod 20, and limiting structures provided on the decorative box 21 and the fixed rod 20; and a movable rod 30, one end of which is movably connected to the fixed rod 20, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a second drying rod 102. The movable rod 30 is a telescopic rod, and the limiting structure restricts the second drying rod 102 to move in the left and right direction to move closer to or further away from the first drying rod 101.

[0035] Due to the limitation of the limiting structure, the second drying rod 102 can be unfolded horizontally relative to the first drying rod 101 to achieve horizontal drying. Because the movable rod 30 is a telescopic rod, it can be unfolded to a longer length while having the same storage length as a normal movable rod. Therefore, it can move the second drying rod 102 further away from the first drying rod 101. That is, the horizontal distance between the first drying rod 101 and the second drying rod 102 is increased. Compared with traditional clothes drying machines, it avoids the problem of mutual interference when clothes and bedding are dried together, and achieves a better drying effect.

[0036] When the second drying rod 102 is in a horizontal drying state, it is suspended horizontally relative to the first drying rod 101. Compared to the traditional vertical suspension of the second drying rod 102, horizontal suspension allows for staggered horizontal drying of clothes and bedding together. This avoids interference between clothes and bedding due to insufficient vertical spacing between the two drying rods caused by excessively long clothes or bedding. It also prevents water dripping from upper clothes onto lower clothes, causing them to remain wet for a long time. Furthermore, this method is not limited to drying clothes and bedding together. If a large quantity of clothing (clothes, bedding, or other items) needs to be dried at once, requiring the simultaneous use of both the first and second drying rods 101 and 102, the same principle applies, preventing interference between clothes and providing ample space for drying, thus improving the user experience.

[0037] The decorative box 21 is placed over the fixed rod 20. When the second drying rod 102 is in the retracted state, the movable rod 30 is stored in the decorative box 21, so that the main body of the drying rack 10 forms a whole and improves the overall integrity.

[0038] In some embodiments, the fixed rod 20 is provided with a first groove 201 extending in the horizontal direction, and the movable rod 30 is provided with a first connector 302, and the movable rod 30 slides or rotates in the first groove 201 through the first connector 302.

[0039] By providing a first sliding groove 201 extending horizontally on the fixed rod 20, and allowing the movable rod 30 to slide or rotate within the first sliding groove 201 via the first connecting member 302, and since one end of the movable rod 30 is connected to the fixed rod 20 and the other end is fixedly connected to the second drying rod 102, when the movable rod 30 slides or rotates within the first sliding groove 291, it drives the second drying rod 102 to slide or rotate along the direction of movement of the movable rod 30.

[0040] The movable rod 30 is movably connected to the fixed rod 20 via the first connector 302. Specifically, the first connector 302 can be a pin. One end of the pin is connected to the movable rod 30, and the other end is connected to the limiting piece. The pin passes through the first slide groove 201. The diameter of the limiting piece is greater than the width of the first slide groove 201 to prevent the first connector 302 from disengaging from the first slide groove 201.

[0041] Furthermore, a positioning groove 202 can be provided near the center of the first sliding groove 201. When the second drying rod 102 is in the retracted state, the movable rod 30 is located in the positioning groove 202, making it difficult for the movable rod 30 to slide. Only when the user needs to apply external force can the movable rod 30 be pulled out of the positioning groove 202, so that the second drying rod 102 can be unfolded.

[0042] In some embodiments, the limiting structure is a limiting block 211 disposed on the decorative box 21. When the second drying rod 102 is unfolded and moves away from the first drying rod 101, the movable rod 30 abuts against the limiting block 211 and works together with the first connecting member 302 to keep the movable rod 30 in a horizontal state, that is, the second drying rod is in a horizontal drying state.

[0043] In some embodiments, the movable rod 30 is provided with a first telescopic rod 301 and a second telescopic rod 303. The first telescopic rod 301 is movably connected to the first slide groove 201 through a first connector 302, and the second telescopic rod 303 is fixedly connected to the second drying rod 102. That is, the first telescopic rod 301 can slide or rotate in the first slide groove 201, while the second telescopic rod 303 performs telescopic movement in the first telescopic rod 301. Since the second telescopic rod 303 is fixedly connected to the second drying rod 102, when the first telescopic rod 301 and the second telescopic rod 303 move, they can both drive the second drying rod 102 to move, so as to facilitate the unfolding or storage of the second drying rod 102.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first telescopic rod 301 is provided with a second sliding groove 304, and the second telescopic rod 303 is provided with a second connecting member 305 to slide within the second sliding groove 304.

[0045] By setting the second slide groove 304 and the second connector 305, in addition to guiding the second telescopic rod 303, it can also be quickly disassembled for maintenance. Furthermore, the first telescopic rod 301 and the second telescopic rod 303 can also adopt the traditional telescopic sleeve form. As long as telescopic movement can be achieved, the specific implementation form is not limited.

[0046] In some embodiments, the second slide groove 304 has a flange protruding from the inner surface of the first telescopic rod 301, and the end of the second telescopic rod 303 away from the second drying rod 102 is provided with an end cap 306. The end cap 306 is provided with a positioning block 3061, and the positioning block 3061 cooperates with the flange of the second slide groove 304 to position the second telescopic rod 303 inside the first telescopic rod 301.

[0047] Positioned by the positioning block 3061 of the end cap 306 and the flange of the second slide groove 304, when the second telescopic rod 303 is stored in the first telescopic rod 301, a certain external force needs to be applied to release the second drying rod 303 from the positioning lock state and allow it to slide in the second slide groove 304. Based on this, users can decide whether to unfold only the first telescopic rod 301 or unfold both the first telescopic rod 301 and the second telescopic rod 303 when using the second drying rod 102, according to their actual needs, and select different drying levels to improve the user experience.

[0048] In some embodiments, two movable rods 30 are connected to the first slide groove 201, and a second drying rod 102 is connected to each movable rod 30. Both movable rods 30 can slide or rotate within the first slide groove 201 to drive the second drying rod 102 to slide on the left and right sides of the drying rack body.

[0049] Two movable rods 30 are connected to the first sliding groove 201, that is, two second drying rods 102 are connected. The main body of the drying rack 10 is provided with two first drying rods 101. Therefore, the two second drying rods 102 can correspond to the first drying rods 101 and be placed on the left and right sides, so the main body of the drying rack 10 is symmetrical.

[0050] The first slide 201 can be a large first slide connecting the two ends of the fixed rod 20, in which two movable rods 30 slide, driving the second drying rod 102 to move to any position. Alternatively, it can be two independent small first slides distributed to the left and right, with each small first slide connected to a movable rod 30, and each movable rod 30 driving the second drying rod 102 to slide within the range of the small first slide.

[0051] In some embodiments, a positioning groove 203 is provided on the first slide 201. When the first connector 302 moves to the positioning groove 203, the movable rod 30 is restricted to the position of the positioning groove 203.

[0052] By creating a positioning groove 203 on the first slide 201, the movable rod 30 can be restricted to the position of the positioning groove 203 when it moves to the position of the positioning groove 203, and will no longer move arbitrarily, such as being blown by a strong wind, causing the second drying rod 102 to shift.

[0053] In some embodiments, the upper part of the decorative box 21 is open, and the movable rod 30 can move above the main body of the drying rack through the open opening. When the user needs to take the second drying rod 102, the second drying rod 102 can be lifted directly, and the movable rod 30 can extend from above the decorative box 21, not limited to the horizontal direction, providing more room for movement, making operation more convenient, and improving the user experience.

[0054] Reference Figure 6In some embodiments, a clothes drying rack is provided, including: a main unit 40, which is provided with a power unit; and the aforementioned drying component, which is connected to the main unit 40 via a folding component 50.

[0055] The clothes drying rack controls the folding component 50 through the power unit of the main unit 40, which in turn controls the raising and lowering of the drying component. When the user needs to dry clothes, the folding component 50 is lowered to facilitate hanging the clothes. After the clothes are hung on the drying rod of the drying component, the folding component 50 is raised to be in the drying state.
