Therefore, a multifunctional smart home clothes rack is designed to provide an alternative technical solution to the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to address the aforementioned technical issues by providing a multifunctional smart home clothes rack that offers a stable and strong connection and generates space for placing other objects when it descends to a certain height.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The system includes a housing, a lifting mechanism disposed within the housing, and a mounting unit connected to the lifting mechanism, and further includes:

[0008] A set of support members is disposed between the housing and the mounting unit, and the support members can retract or extend as the mounting unit moves;

[0009] A set of reinforcing rods, also disposed between the housing and the mounting unit, wherein the length of the reinforcing rods can shorten or lengthen as the mounting unit moves; and

[0010] The placement platform includes a carrier plate capable of supporting objects and a connecting part that can rotate on the carrier plate as the hanging unit moves.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the multifunctional smart home clothes rack provided by this utility model, the housing is composed of an outer shell with an open bottom and a bottom plate that closes the bottom of the outer shell;

[0012] The lifting mechanism consists of a drive unit and a transmission unit. Both the drive unit and the transmission unit are connected to the outer shell, and a portion of the transmission unit extends out of the base plate and is fixed to the hanging unit.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the multifunctional smart home clothes hanger provided by this utility model, the driving unit includes a rotating shaft and a set of braking components that can synchronously drive the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0014] The transmission unit includes a set of reels fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft, and a rope with one end fixed to the reels and the other end fixed to the hook unit.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the multifunctional smart home clothes rack provided by this utility model, the hanging unit consists of a set of hanging plates that can connect to support the clothes rack, and a set of first horizontal plates and a set of second horizontal plates connected between the set of hanging plates.

[0016] One end of the support member and the rope is connected to the first horizontal plate, and one end of the reinforcing rod is connected to the second horizontal plate.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the multifunctional smart home clothes rack provided by this utility model, the support member includes a telescopic part formed by a plurality of scissor bar groups hinged in sequence, and a first sliding member fixed inside the outer shell and connected to the scissor bar group located at the top of the telescopic part.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0034] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0036] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, this multifunctional smart home clothes rack includes a housing 1, a lifting mechanism 2, a hanging unit 3, a set of support members 4, a set of reinforcing rods 5, and a placement platform 6. The housing 1 is used to be fixed to the roof, for example, to the top of a balcony that can receive sunlight, and to house the lifting mechanism 2. The lifting mechanism 2 is connected to the hanging unit 3 below. As the lifting mechanism 2 operates inside the housing 1, it drives the hanging unit 3 to rise or fall. When the hanging unit 3 falls to a certain height, it can connect the clothes using the clothes rack, allowing the clothes to receive sunlight on the hanging unit 3.

[0038] To prevent external wind from blowing into the balcony and causing the hanging unit 3 to sway with the wind, a set of support members 4 and a set of reinforcing rods 5 are installed between the housing 1 and the hanging unit 3. Since the support members 4 and the reinforcing rods 5 are all telescopic (see below for details), the integral connection strength between the hanging unit 3 and the housing 1 can be strengthened without affecting the lifting and lowering movement of the hanging unit 3 on the housing 1. This prevents the hanging unit 3 from swaying significantly with the wind on the housing 1 and reduces the probability of clothes falling off the hanging unit 3.

[0039] There are two symmetrical placement platforms 6 in the figure. Both placement platforms 6 are located on one side outside the housing 1 and the hanging unit 3. The figure shows that the hanging unit 3 is at a lowering height that can be used to connect clothes under the action of the lifting mechanism 2. At the same time, the placement platform 6 is in the unfolded state. That is to say, when the hanging unit 3 is at a certain height, the placement platform 6 is in the unfolded state, so that other objects, such as shoes, can be placed on the placement platform 6 for drying. When the hanging unit 3 is raised and lowered to be close to the housing 1 (not shown in the figure), the unfolded state of the placement platform 6 also changes accordingly, that is, it forms a vertical or nearly vertical folded state (see below for details), so that other objects cannot be placed. This makes the placement platform 6 and the hanging unit 3 linked, avoiding the increased manufacturing cost of setting up a separate mechanism to drive the placement platform 6, and maintaining the consistent drying purpose of the placement platform 6 and the hanging unit 3.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, and for reference Figure 1 The housing 1 consists of an open outer shell 11 and a base plate 12 that closes the bottom of the outer shell 11; the lifting mechanism 2 consists of a drive unit and a transmission unit, and both the drive unit and the transmission unit are connected to the outer shell 11. The transmission unit extends out of the base plate 12 and is fixed to the hanging unit 3, so that the drive unit drives the hanging unit 3 to lift and lower through the transmission unit.

[0041] The hanging unit 3 consists of a set of hanging plates 31 that can connect to clothes hangers, and a set of first horizontal plates 32 and a set of second horizontal plates 33 connected between the set of hanging plates 31. Specifically, the length of the hanging plate 31 is greater than that of the first horizontal plate 32 and the second horizontal plate 33, i.e., in the length direction. The hanging plate 31 has multiple hanging holes equidistantly opened along the width direction that intersects the length direction. The hanging holes are used to connect the clothes hanger so that the clothes on the clothes hanger are connected to the whole of the hanging unit 3. The set of first horizontal plates 32 and the set of second horizontal plates 33 are used to connect the set of hanging plates 31 together at intervals in the width direction.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, and for reference Figure 2 The driving part of the lifting mechanism 2 includes a rotating shaft 21 and a set of braking components 22 that can synchronously drive the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. As shown in the figure, the braking component 22 consists of a worm wheel, a worm, and a motor. The worm wheel is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 21. The worm meshes with the worm wheel and is rotatably connected to the outer shell 11. The worm is coaxially connected to the motor. Thus, driven by the motor, the worm drives the worm wheel to rotate, thereby causing the rotating shaft 21 to rotate.

[0043] In some embodiments, the brake 22 may be a motor with a locking function, which is directly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 21 and drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. Alternatively, the worm gear and worm may be replaced by a helical gear set and a motor with the same locking function as described above, which drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate through the helical gear set.

[0044] Based on the above, the transmission part of the lifting mechanism 2 includes a set of reels 23 fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft 21, and a rope 24 with one end fixed to the reel 23 and the other end fixed to the hanging unit 3. That is, the bottom end of the rope 24 is fixedly connected to the first horizontal plate 32 of the hanging unit 3. When the rotating shaft 21 rotates, the reel 23 also rotates, so that the rope 24 is wound around the reel 23. For example, when the length of the rope 24 inside the reel 23 increases, the length of the rope 24 outside the reel shortens accordingly. At this time, the rope 24 drives the hanging unit 3 to be lifted upward as a whole, so that the height of the hanging unit 3 is increased. Conversely, under the action of gravity, the hanging unit 3 is lowered downward, so that the height of the hanging unit 3 allows the user to hang clothes on it.

[0045] right Figure 1 Further examples, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, and for reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support member 4 includes a telescopic part formed by a plurality of scissor bar assemblies 41 hinged in sequence, and a first sliding member 42 fixed inside the housing 11 and connected to the scissor bar assembly 41 at the top of the telescopic part. The scissor bar assembly 41 at the bottom of the telescopic part is slidably connected to the first horizontal plate 32. The first sliding member 42 consists of a slide rod fixed inside the housing 11 along the width direction and a set of sliding sleeves sleeved outside the slide rod. When the height of the hanging unit 3 is lowered, the angle between the scissor bar assembly 41 in the vertical direction gradually decreases. At the same time, the left and right distance between two adjacent scissor bar assemblies 41 is vertically stretched and expanded, thereby lengthening the overall length of the telescopic part. While the telescopic part is stretched and deformed, the scissor bar assembly 41 at the top drives a set of sliding sleeves to slide in the opposite direction on the slide rod. The scissor bar assembly 41 at the bottom slides in the opposite direction in the two sliding grooves (shown in the figure but not marked) opened in the first horizontal plate 32 through rivets.

[0046] Each set of reinforcing rods 5 consists of multiple sleeves 51 connected in sequence. The top sleeve 51 passes through the bottom plate 12 and is fixed to the outer shell 11. The bottom sleeve 51 is fixed to the second horizontal plate 33. It should be noted that, not shown in the figure, each sleeve 51 is provided with a structure to prevent the sleeve 51 from completely detaching from the other sleeve 51. For example, the inner and outer sides of the sleeve 51 are provided with a sliding groove. The inner part of the other sleeve 51, corresponding to the sliding groove, is provided with a protrusion. The protrusion is placed in the sliding groove, and the length of the sliding groove is less than the length of the sleeve 51. So when the protrusion slides down to the bottom of the sliding groove, it cannot continue to slide down. Instead, the next level of sleeve 51 continues to slide down, thereby increasing the overall length of the reinforcing rod 5. Conversely, it shortens the length.

[0047] The extension and retraction of the reinforcing rod 5 and the stretching of the support 4 are synchronized, that is, they are lifted by the rope 24 or under gravity. The setting of the reinforcing rod 5 and the support 4 can effectively strengthen the connection strength between the hanging unit 3 and the housing 1, making it less likely for the hanging unit 3 to sway on the housing 1.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, and for reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The placement platform 6 includes a carrier plate 61 capable of supporting objects, and a connecting part 62 that can rotate on the carrier plate 61 as the hanging unit 3 moves. That is, when the hanging unit 3 rises, the angle of the connecting part 62 will change accordingly, so that the carrier plate 61 rotates downward about the hanging unit 3 as the axis under the restraint of the connecting part 62, so that the carrier plate 61 is in a vertical or nearly vertical folded state. Conversely, the carrier plate 61 rotates in a horizontal state that is nearly parallel to the hanging unit 3 under the drive of the connecting part 62. At this time, other objects can be placed on the carrier plate 61 for drying.

[0049] Furthermore, the height of the hanging unit 3 suitable for connecting clothes is limited to the height of the carrier plate 61 when it is in a horizontally unfolded state, so that the hanging unit 3 is lowered to a suitable height for connecting clothes is determined based on the observation of the state of the carrier plate 61.

[0050] Furthermore, a set of second sliding members 63 are fixed on the carrier plate 61, and the carrier plate 61 is rotatably connected to the first horizontal plate 32. The connecting part 62 is composed of a set of connecting rods 621, one end of which is rotatably connected to the outer shell 11, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the second sliding member 63. Specifically, when the hanging unit 3 is lifted upward, the carrier plate 61 will first be restricted by the set of connecting rods 621, and the connection between the carrier plate 61 and the first horizontal plate 32 will rotate clockwise downward. When it rotates to a certain angle, one end of the connecting rod 621 passes through the second sliding member 63 on the carrier plate 61. The connecting rod 621 slides upwards, and one end of the connecting rod 621 slides close to the connection between the carrier plate 61 and the first horizontal plate 32. The end of the connecting rod 621 connected to the outer shell 11 also rotates clockwise, so that the carrier plate 61 is in a vertical or nearly vertical folded state. Conversely, when the carrier plate 61 rotates in the opposite direction, the connecting rod 621 slides in the opposite direction with the carrier plate 61 through the second sliding member 63 and rotates in the opposite direction to the outer shell 11, so that the carrier plate 61 is in a horizontal or nearly horizontal unfolded state that can carry other objects. The second sliding member 63 refers to the structure of the sliding connection described above.

[0051] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. The present utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
