Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothes dryers, and in particular to a clothes drying device and a clothes dryer. Background Technology

[0002] A clothes dryer is a household appliance used for drying clothes. Traditional clothes dryers typically use a fixed, elongated hanging device. However, traditional clothes dryers have the following drawbacks: the fixed, elongated hanging device cannot be folded for storage, meaning it must remain unfolded even when not in use, taking up too much space and increasing the risk of damage. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a drying device and a clothes dryer to address the problem that the fixed, long strip-shaped drying device of traditional clothes dryers cannot be folded and stored, which means that it must remain unfolded when not in use, taking up too much space and increasing the risk of damage.

[0004] A drying and hanging device includes: a first support structure extending along its length and having a first receiving space; a second support structure movably disposed on the first support structure, capable of rotating relative to the first support structure, and capable of rotating at least a first angle and a second angle relative to the first support structure, wherein when the second support structure rotates at the first angle, the second support structure is retracted into the first receiving space, and when the second support structure rotates at the second angle, the second support structure extends out from the first receiving space; and a hook structure disposed on the second support structure.

[0005] This application discloses a clothes drying device. A second support structure can rotate at least relative to a first support structure by a first angle and a second angle, allowing the second support structure to freely switch between a folded state and a working state to meet the needs of different usage scenarios. This design allows the second support structure to remain compact when folded, reducing space occupation. By storing the second support structure within a first accommodating space, it is protected, effectively reducing the risk of damage. In use, the second support structure is fully extended for convenient hanging of clothes, providing ample space. The hook structure further increases the number of hanging positions, allowing for more clothes to be hung, thus increasing the number of clothes dried at once and improving drying efficiency. This application's clothes drying device, while maintaining traditional drying functions, achieves a comprehensive advantage of smaller space occupation, longer service life, and more convenient operation through an innovative foldable structure. Furthermore, this application's clothes drying device can be applied to, but is not limited to, dryers.

[0006] In one embodiment, a first limiting structure is formed on the first support structure, and a second limiting structure is formed on the second support structure. When the second support structure rotates by the first angle, the second limiting structure abuts against the first limiting structure. By having the second limiting structure abut against the first limiting structure when the second support structure rotates by the first angle, it is ensured that the second support structure can be accurately and stably stored within the first accommodating space, preventing the second support structure from rotating beyond its travel range. This design ensures the reliability of storage, makes the storage operation simpler and more convenient, and prevents the second support structure from accidentally falling out during storage.

[0007] In one embodiment, when the second support structure rotates to the first angle, one side of the second limiting structure abuts against one side of the first limiting structure; when the second support structure rotates to the second angle, the other side of the second limiting structure abuts against the other side of the first limiting structure. By ensuring that the two sides of the second limiting structure and the first limiting structure abut against each other during folding and unfolding, the second support structure can be folded and unfolded into its proper positions. This design ensures that the second support structure remains stable during both folding and unfolding, guaranteeing normal operation.

[0008] In one embodiment, the first limiting structure is located within the first accommodating space. By positioning the first limiting structure within the first accommodating space, the second support structure can be stably stored within that space. This design effectively prevents damage to the second support structure, improves product durability, and extends product lifespan.

[0009] In one embodiment, both the first and second limiting structures have fan-shaped cross-sections. By designing both the first and second limiting structures with fan-shaped cross-sections, an optimized configuration of the contact surfaces is achieved. The fan-shaped geometry allows the two limiting structures to form surface contact when they come into contact, significantly improving contact stability compared to line or point contact. This makes the second support structure more stable and reliable during storage and deployment. For example, when the second support structure is stored, the limiting effect of the first support structure on the second support structure can prevent the second support structure from easily popping out of the first receiving space under stress.

[0010] In one embodiment, the first limiting structure has a first limiting surface and a second limiting surface, which are located on opposite sides of the first limiting structure. The second limiting structure has a third limiting surface and a fourth limiting surface, which are also located on opposite sides of the second limiting structure. When the second supporting structure rotates to the first angle, the third limiting surface abuts against the first limiting surface; when the second supporting structure rotates to the second angle, the fourth limiting surface abuts against the second limiting surface. When the second supporting structure rotates to the first angle, the contact between the third limiting surface and the first limiting surface ensures accurate and stable storage position. When rotated to the second angle, the contact between the fourth limiting surface and the second limiting surface ensures the unfolded position is in place. This design allows the second supporting structure to form surface contact with the first supporting structure in both the stored and unfolded states. Compared to line contact or point contact, this significantly improves contact stability and structural strength, allowing the first supporting structure to apply force to the second supporting structure during storage, preventing the second supporting structure from popping out when the hanging device is under force, and maintaining the stability and reliability of storage.

[0011] In one embodiment, a connecting shaft is further included. The connecting shaft is disposed on the first support structure, and the second support structure is movably disposed on the connecting shaft. The first limiting structure is connected to the connecting shaft. The first limiting structure, the connecting shaft, and the first support structure enclose a first mating space and a second mating space. When the second support structure rotates at the first angle, the second limiting structure engages with the first mating space. When the second support structure rotates at the second angle, the second limiting structure engages with the second mating space. The arrangement of the first and second mating spaces provides precise positioning for the unfolding and folding of the second support structure. This design makes the second support structure more stable and reliable in both its folded and unfolded states, ensuring stable hanging of clothes during use and reducing space occupation when not in use.

[0012] In one embodiment, one of the first support structure and the second support structure forms a first adapter portion, and the other of the first support structure and the second support structure is provided with a first adapter groove. When the second support structure rotates at the first angle, the first adapter portion engages with the first adapter groove; when the second support structure rotates at the second angle, the first adapter portion disengages from the first adapter groove. By providing the first adapter portion and the first adapter groove on the first support structure and the second support structure respectively, and enabling them to engage, an auxiliary engagement function in the retracted state is achieved. This design effectively improves the structural stability of the second support structure in the retracted state, preventing accidental unfolding due to external forces.

[0013] In one embodiment, a limiting member is formed on the first support structure, the limiting member being located at the first accommodating space. A groove is provided on the second support structure. When the second support structure rotates to the first angle, the groove engages with the limiting member; when the second support structure rotates to the second angle, the limiting member separates from the groove. The engagement of the limiting member and the groove when the second support structure rotates to the second angle effectively enhances the structural stability in the stowed state, preventing accidental unfolding due to vibration or external force.

[0014] In one embodiment, the second support structure has a second receiving space, and the hook structure is movably mounted on the second support structure. The hook structure is rotatable relative to the second support structure, and can rotate at least a third angle and a fourth angle relative to the second support structure. When the hook structure rotates to the third angle, it is retracted into the second receiving space; when it rotates to the fourth angle, it extends out from the second receiving space. The second receiving space protects the hook structure and reduces the possibility of damage. The hook structure can be retracted into the second receiving space, forming a more compact storage configuration and further reducing space occupation. When the hook structure is unfolded, more hanging space for clothes can be provided. This design allows for the double folding or unfolding of the second support structure and the hook structure, minimizing the space occupied by the hanging device and improving the practicality and convenience of the product.

[0015] In one embodiment, one of the second support structure and the hook structure is provided with a second adapter portion, and the other of the second support structure and the hook structure is provided with a second adapter groove. When the hook structure rotates to the third angle, the second adapter portion engages with the second adapter groove; when the hook structure rotates to the fourth angle, the second adapter portion separates from the second adapter groove. By providing a second adapter portion and a second adapter groove on the second support structure and the hook structure respectively, auxiliary positioning and stable engagement of the hook structure in the retracted state are achieved, preventing the hook structure from popping out when retracted.

[0016] In one embodiment, a limiting member is formed on the first support structure, the limiting member being located at the first receiving space. When the hook structure rotates to the third angle, the hook structure abuts against the limiting member; when the hook structure rotates to the fourth angle, the hook structure separates from the limiting member. By having the hook structure abut against the limiting member when rotating to the third angle, the limiting member can both engage with the groove of the second support structure to prevent the second support structure from detaching during storage, and abut against the hook structure to prevent the hook structure from detaching during storage. This results in a more rational structural design, where a single component can enhance the stability of both the second support structure and the hook structure.

[0017] In one embodiment, the hook structure includes a support portion and a hook portion. The support portion is movably disposed on the second support structure, and the hook portion is disposed on the support portion and located at the end of the support portion away from the second support structure. The hook portion can abut against or separate from the limiting member. By abutting against the limiting member, the hook structure is prevented from falling out of the second receiving space, increasing the stability of storage.

[0018] In one embodiment, there are multiple hook structures, each movably mounted on the second support structure. Each hook structure is rotatable relative to the second support structure and can be housed within or extend from the second receiving space. Multiple hook structures can be designed according to actual needs, such as two, four, etc., all within the protection range. This design allows for the creation of more hanging positions for clothes, increasing the space available for hanging clothes.

[0019] A clothes dryer includes: a housing assembly; a support rod structure disposed on the housing assembly; and a plurality of drying and hanging devices, all of which are disposed on the support rod structure.

[0020] The second aspect of this application discloses a clothes dryer that, through a foldable design of multiple hanging devices, maintains a compact form when not in use, significantly reducing its overall size. The multiple hanging devices greatly increase the number of clothes that can be hung, allowing the dryer to dry more clothes at once, resulting in high drying efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0050] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0051] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0052] Example 1

[0053] like Figure 1-20 As shown, this embodiment discloses a drying device, including: a first support structure 1, which extends along its length and has a first receiving space 101; a second support structure 2, which is movably disposed on the first support structure 1 and is rotatable relative to the first support structure 1, wherein the second support structure 2 is rotatable relative to the first support structure 1 by at least a first angle and a second angle, wherein when the second support structure 2 rotates by the first angle, it is housed within the first receiving space 101, and when it rotates by the second angle, it extends out from the first receiving space 101; and a hook structure 3 disposed on the second support structure 2.

[0054] This application discloses a clothes drying device. A second support structure 2 can rotate at least relative to a first support structure 1 by a first angle and a second angle, allowing the second support structure 2 to freely switch between a folded state and a working state to meet the needs of different usage scenarios. This design allows the second support structure 2 to remain compact when folded, reducing space occupation. The second support structure 2 is protected by being stored within a first accommodating space 101, effectively reducing the risk of damage. In use, the second support structure 2 is fully extended for convenient hanging of clothes, providing ample space. The hook structure 3 further increases the hanging space, allowing for more clothes to be hung, thus increasing the number of clothes dried at once and improving drying efficiency. This application's clothes drying device, while maintaining traditional drying functions, achieves a comprehensive advantage of smaller space occupation, longer service life, and more convenient operation through an innovative foldable structure. Furthermore, this application's clothes drying device can be applied to, but is not limited to, dryers.

[0055] like Figure 4-7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: a first limiting structure 11 is formed on the first support structure 1, and a second limiting structure 21 is formed on the second support structure 2. When the second support structure 2 rotates at the first angle, the second limiting structure 21 abuts against the first limiting structure 11. By having the second limiting structure 21 abut against the first limiting structure 11 when the second support structure 2 rotates at the first angle, it is ensured that the second support structure 2 can be accurately and stably stored in the first accommodating space 101, avoiding over-rotation of the second support structure 2. This design ensures the reliability of storage, makes the storage operation simpler and more convenient, and can prevent the second support structure 2 from accidentally falling out during storage.

[0056] like Figure 4-7 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: when the second support structure 2 rotates to the first angle, one side of the second limiting structure 21 abuts against one side of the first limiting structure 11, and when the second support structure 2 rotates to the second angle, the other side of the second limiting structure 21 abuts against the other side of the first limiting structure 11. By ensuring that the two sides of the second limiting structure 21 and the first limiting structure 11 abut against each other during storage and unfolding, the second support structure 2 can be stored and unfolded in place. This design ensures that the second support structure 2 remains stable during storage and unfolding, guaranteeing normal operation of its function.

[0057] like Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the first limiting structure 11 is located within the first accommodating space 101. By ensuring that the first limiting structure 11 is located within the first accommodating space 101, the second support structure 2 can be stably stored within the first accommodating space 101. This design effectively prevents damage to the second support structure 2, improves product durability, and increases product lifespan.

[0058] like Figure 4-7 and Figure 13-16 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the cross-section of the first limiting structure 11 is fan-shaped, and the cross-section of the second limiting structure 21 is fan-shaped. By designing both the first limiting structure 11 and the second limiting structure 21 as fan-shaped cross-sections, an optimized configuration of the contacting surfaces is achieved. The fan-shaped geometric feature allows the two limiting structures to form surface contact when they come into contact, which significantly improves contact stability compared to line contact or point contact, making the second support structure 2 more stable and reliable when stored and deployed. For example, when the second support structure 2 is stored, the limiting effect of the first support structure 1 on the second support structure 2 can prevent the second support structure 2 from easily popping out of the first receiving space 101 under stress.

[0059] like Figure 4-7 and Figure 13-16 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the first limiting structure 11 is provided with a first limiting surface 102 and a second limiting surface 103, the first limiting surface 102 and the second limiting surface 103 are respectively located on both sides of the first limiting structure 11; the second limiting structure 21 is provided with a third limiting surface 201 and a fourth limiting surface 202, the third limiting surface 201 and the fourth limiting surface 202 are respectively located on both sides of the second limiting structure 21; when the second support structure 2 rotates to the first angle, the third limiting surface 201 abuts against the first limiting surface 102; when the second support structure 2 rotates to the second angle, the fourth limiting surface 202 abuts against the second limiting surface 103. When the second support structure 2 rotates to the first angle, the abutment between the third limiting surface 201 and the first limiting surface 102 ensures that the storage position is accurate and stable. When rotated to the second angle, the abutment between the fourth limiting surface 202 and the second limiting surface 103 ensures that the unfolded position is in place. This design allows the second support structure 2 to form surface contact with the first support structure 1 in both the folded and unfolded states. Compared to line contact or point contact, this significantly improves contact stability and structural strength. It also allows the first support structure 1 to apply force to the second support structure 2 during folding, preventing the second support structure 2 from popping out when the hanging device is under force, thus maintaining the stability and reliability of folding.

[0060] like Figure 4-7 and Figure 13-16As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes a connecting shaft 4, which is disposed on the first support structure 1. The second support structure 2 is movably disposed on the connecting shaft 4. The first limiting structure 11 is connected to the connecting shaft 4. The first limiting structure 11, the connecting shaft 4, and the first support structure 1 enclose a first mating space 104 and a second mating space 105. When the second support structure 2 rotates at the first angle, the second limiting structure 21 engages with the first mating space 104. When the second support structure 2 rotates at the second angle, the second limiting structure 21 engages with the second mating space 105. The arrangement of the first mating space 104 and the second mating space 105 provides precise positioning for the unfolding and folding of the second support structure 2. This design makes the second support structure 2 more stable and reliable in both its folded and unfolded states, ensuring stable hanging of clothes during use and reducing space occupation when not in use.

[0061] like Figure 2-3 and Figure 11-12 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: one of the first support structure 1 and the second support structure 2 forms a first adapter portion 22, and the other of the first support structure 1 and the second support structure 2 is provided with a first adapter groove 106. When the second support structure 2 rotates at the first angle, the first adapter portion 22 engages with the first adapter groove 106; when the second support structure 2 rotates at the second angle, the first adapter portion 22 separates from the first adapter groove 106. By providing the first adapter portion 22 and the first adapter groove 106 on the first support structure 1 and the second support structure 2 respectively, and enabling them to engage, an auxiliary engagement function in the stored state is achieved. This design effectively improves the structural stability of the second support structure 2 in the stored state, avoiding accidental unfolding due to external forces.

[0062] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 18 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: a limiting member 12 is formed on the first support structure 1, the limiting member 12 is located at the first accommodating space 101, and a groove 203 is provided on the second support structure 2. When the second support structure 2 rotates at the first angle, the groove 203 can cooperate with the limiting member 12; when the second support structure 2 rotates at the second angle, the limiting member 12 separates from the groove 203. The cooperation between the limiting member 12 and the groove 203 when the second support structure 2 rotates at the second angle effectively enhances the structural stability in the stored state, preventing accidental unfolding due to vibration or external force.

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the second support structure 2 is provided with a second receiving space 204, the hook structure 3 is movably disposed on the second support structure 2, the hook structure 3 is rotatable relative to the second support structure 2, and the hook structure 3 is rotatable relative to the second support structure 2 at least at a third angle and a fourth angle. When the hook structure 3 rotates at the third angle, it is retracted into the second receiving space 204; when the hook structure 3 rotates at the fourth angle, it extends out from the second receiving space 204. The second receiving space 204 protects the hook structure 3 and reduces the possibility of damage. The hook structure 3 can be retracted into the second receiving space 204, forming a more compact storage state and further reducing space occupation. When the hook structure 3 is unfolded, more clothes hanging positions can be provided. This design enables the double folding or unfolding of the second support structure 2 and the hook structure 3, minimizing the space occupation of the drying device and improving the practicality and convenience of the product.

[0064] like Figure 2-3 and Figure 11-12 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: one of the second support structure 2 and the hook structure 3 is provided with a second adapter part 311, and the other of the second support structure 2 and the hook structure 3 is provided with a second adapter groove 205. When the hook structure 3 rotates to the third angle, the second adapter part 311 engages with the second adapter groove 205; when the hook structure 3 rotates to the fourth angle, the second adapter part 311 separates from the second adapter groove 205. By providing the second adapter part 311 and the second adapter groove 205 on the second support structure 2 and the hook structure 3 respectively, auxiliary positioning and stable engagement of the hook structure 3 in the retracted state are achieved, preventing the hook structure 3 from popping out in the retracted state.

[0065] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 13 and Figure 15As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: a limiting member 12 is formed on the first support structure 1, the limiting member 12 is located at the first accommodating space 101, the hook structure 3 abuts against the limiting member 12 when the hook structure 3 rotates at the third angle, and the hook structure 3 separates from the limiting member 12 when the hook structure 3 rotates at the fourth angle. By having the hook structure 3 abut against the limiting member 12 when rotating at the third angle, the limiting member 12 can both cooperate with the groove 203 of the second support structure 2 to prevent the second support structure 2 from falling out during storage, and abut against the hook structure 3 to prevent the hook structure 3 from falling out during storage. The structural design is more reasonable, and the stability of the second support structure 2 and the hook structure 3 can be enhanced by a single component.

[0066] like Figure 20 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the hook structure 3 includes a support portion 31 and a hook portion 32. The support portion 31 is movably disposed on the second support structure 2, and the hook portion 32 is disposed on the support portion 31 and located at the end of the support portion 31 away from the second support structure 2. The hook portion 32 can abut against or separate from the limiting member 12. By abutting against the limiting member 12 with the hook portion 32, the hook structure 3 is prevented from falling out of the second receiving space 204, increasing the stability of storage.

[0067] like Figure 1-2 and Figure 4 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the number of hook structures 3 is multiple, all of the multiple hook structures 3 are movably disposed on the second support structure 2, all of the multiple hook structures 3 are rotatable relative to the second support structure 2, and all of the multiple hook structures 3 can be housed within the second receiving space 204 or extend from the second receiving space 204. Multiple hook structures 3 can be designed according to actual conditions, for example, two, four, etc., all within the protection range. This design allows for the design of more hanging positions for clothes, increasing the space for hanging clothes.

[0068] Example 2

[0069] like Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, this embodiment discloses a clothes dryer, including: a housing assembly; a support rod structure 100, the support rod structure 100 being disposed on the housing assembly; and the aforementioned drying and hanging device 200, wherein the number of the drying and hanging devices 200 is multiple, and the multiple drying and hanging devices 200 are all disposed on the support rod structure 100.

[0070] The second aspect of this application discloses a clothes dryer that maintains a compact form when not in use by employing a folding design of multiple hanging devices 200, significantly reducing its overall size. The multiple hanging devices 200 greatly increase the number of clothes that can be hung, allowing the dryer to dry more clothes at once, resulting in high drying efficiency.

[0071] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
