However, during the operation of the dryer, lint, debris, and other impurities generated by the friction of the garments inside the drum are easily carried by the airflow and adhere to the surface of the exposed atomizing plate, clogging the atomizing holes and causing the atomizing device to malfunction. Utility Model Content
[0003] This application provides a clothes dryer to solve the problem of existing clothes dryer atomizing devices easily clogging the atomizing holes.
[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a clothes dryer, comprising:
[0005] The main body of the equipment has a drying chamber;
[0006] An atomizing device is disposed on the main body of the device, and the atomizing port of the atomizing device is oriented towards the drying chamber;

[0010] And / or, the device body is provided with a second limiting member, and in the second position, the baffle abuts against the second limiting member.
[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the device body is provided with a front support, the drive motor is mounted on the front support and is located on the side of the front support away from the drying chamber; the motor shaft of the drive motor passes through the front support and is connected to the baffle.
[0012] In some embodiments of this application, the dryer is further provided with a return air pipe, which is connected to the atomizing device and is used to exhaust the bubbles generated during the atomization process of the atomizing device.
[0013] In some embodiments of this application, the clothes dryer includes a first water storage box, which is installed on the top of the device body and located above the atomizing device. The first water storage box is connected to the atomizing device through a pipeline.
[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the dryer further includes a condensate water box, and the first water storage box and the condensate water box are arranged side by side;
[0015] Alternatively, the dryer may also include a condensate box, which has a first cavity and a second cavity, the first cavity for collecting the condensate, and the second cavity forming the first water storage box.
[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the device body is provided with a front support, and the dryer further includes:
[0017] The second water storage box is installed on the front support;
[0018] A water pump is connected to the second water storage box and the atomizing device to deliver water from the second water storage box to the atomizing device.
[0019] In some embodiments of this application, the front support is provided with a snap-fit component, and the second water storage box is snap-fitted into the snap-fit component.
[0020] In some embodiments of this application, the first water storage box is equipped with a float switch, which is used to detect the water level in the first water storage box.
[0021] In some embodiments of this application, the drive motor is a stepper motor.
[0022] The clothes dryer provided in this application includes a device body, an atomizing device, a baffle plate, and a drive motor. The device body forms a drying chamber. The atomizing device is disposed on the device body, and the atomizing port of the atomizing device faces the drying chamber. The baffle plate is disposed corresponding to the atomizing port. The drive motor is used to drive the baffle plate to rotate and can switch the baffle plate between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the baffle plate covers the atomizing port; in the second position, the baffle plate opens the atomizing port. By setting a rotatable baffle plate and a drive motor, the baffle plate is driven to switch between the first and second positions. When atomization is required, the drive motor drives the baffle plate to rotate to the second position, and the baffle plate opens the atomizing port, allowing water mist to be sprayed onto the clothes in the drying chamber. When the clothes dryer is not performing atomization, the drive motor drives the baffle plate to rotate to the first position, and the baffle plate covers the atomizing port. At this time, impurities such as lint and debris generated during the airflow circulation in the drying chamber cannot directly contact the surface of the atomizing plate, thereby effectively avoiding the adhesion and accumulation of impurities at the atomizing port, which would cause blockage of the atomizing hole.

[0047] With the improvement of living standards, household dryers have gradually become an important device for clothing care due to their convenience. Traditional dryers remove moisture by drying at high temperatures, but prolonged high temperatures can easily cause wrinkles in clothes, requiring additional ironing. To address this, existing technologies have introduced ultrasonic atomization wrinkle removal solutions: high-frequency oscillating atomizing plates decompose water into micron-sized water mist, which is sprayed onto the surface of the clothing to moisten the fibers, and then combined with the drying process to smooth out wrinkles. However, this technology has significant drawbacks: during the dryer's operation, lint, debris, and other impurities generated by the friction of clothes inside the drum are easily carried by the airflow and adhere to the exposed atomizing plate surface, causing blockage of the atomizing holes. Long-term accumulation can lead to a decrease in atomization efficiency or even malfunction, requiring users to frequently disassemble and clean, seriously affecting the user experience and the lifespan of the device.
[0048] Existing solutions mostly rely on filter interception or regular cleaning and maintenance. However, filter designs can hinder atomization diffusion and cannot completely isolate micron-sized impurities. Frequent disassembly and reassembly of the atomization component increases operational complexity and maintenance costs. Therefore, an innovative protective structure is needed that can effectively block lint contamination in dynamic drying environments while ensuring atomization efficiency, thereby improving the reliability of the wrinkle removal function of dryers and enhancing the user experience.
[0049] This application provides a clothes dryer to solve the problem of easy clogging of the atomizing holes in existing clothes dryer atomizing devices. The following will be discussed in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1-7 Please provide an explanation.
[0050] The clothes dryer provided in the embodiments of this application refers to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the device includes a main body 100, an atomizing device 200, a baffle 300, and a drive motor 310. The main body 100 forms a drying chamber 101. The atomizing device 200 is disposed on the main body 100, and the atomizing port 210 of the atomizing device 200 is disposed facing the drying chamber 101. The baffle 300 is disposed corresponding to the atomizing port 210. The drive motor 310 is used to drive the baffle 300 to rotate and can switch the baffle 300 between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the baffle 300 covers the atomizing port 210; in the second position, the baffle 300 opens the atomizing port 210.
[0051] Understandably, in this embodiment, the device body 100 forms a drying chamber 101 for accommodating clothes that need to be dried. An atomizing device 200 is mounted on the device body 100, with its atomizing port 210 facing the drying chamber 101. The atomizing device 200 can convert water into fine water mist particles through ultrasonic vibration or other means for humidifying and wrinkle-removing the clothes. A drive motor 310 drives the baffle 300 to rotate, and can switch the baffle 300 between a first position (covering the atomizing port 210) and a second position (opening the atomizing port 210) according to instructions.
[0052] When the atomizing function is not needed, the drive motor 310 drives the baffle 300 to rotate to the first position, completely covering the atomizing port 210. At this time, the airflow inside the drying chamber 101 cannot directly contact the atomizing plate, thus preventing lint, debris, and other impurities from adhering to its surface. When the atomizing function is needed, the drive motor 310 drives the baffle 300 to rotate to the second position, removing the baffle 300 from the atomizing port 210. Water mist is then sprayed through the atomizing port 210 onto the clothes inside the drying chamber 101, achieving humidification and wrinkle removal.
[0053] The design of the baffle 300 and drive motor 310 solves the technical problem of the atomizing holes in traditional dryer atomizing devices 200 being easily clogged by impurities. Because the atomizing port 210 is effectively isolated and protected, the atomizing plate can remain clean for a long time, its micropores are less prone to clogging, and the atomization efficiency is maintained stably. This greatly extends the service life of the atomizing device 200, reduces the frequency of maintenance and replacement, and eliminates the need for frequent disassembly and cleaning of the atomizing device 200. This avoids cumbersome procedures, saves time and effort, and significantly improves the user experience.
[0054] In one optional embodiment, the device body 100 is provided with a first limiting member (not shown in the figure), and in a first position, the baffle 300 abuts against the first limiting member. In another optional embodiment, the device body 100 is provided with a second limiting member (not shown in the figure), and in a second position, the baffle 300 abuts against the second limiting member.
[0055] For example, the first and second limiting members can be protrusions formed on the device body 100. When it is necessary to close the atomizing port 210, the drive motor 310 drives the baffle 300 to rotate to the first position. The baffle 300 abuts against the first limiting member in the first position, firmly covering the atomizing port 210 and preventing water mist from spraying out. When it is necessary to open the atomizing port 210, the drive motor 310 drives the baffle 300 to rotate to the second position. The baffle 300 abuts against the second limiting member in the second position, firmly opening the atomizing port 210 and allowing water mist to spray onto the clothes in the drying chamber 101.
[0056] By setting a limiting component, the baffle 300 can be precisely positioned when rotated to a designated position and abut against the limiting component, ensuring the accurate and reliable opening and closing state of the atomizing port 210. The limiting component can prevent the baffle 300 from shifting position due to vibration, impact or other reasons, ensuring that the baffle 300 maintains a stable opening and closing state during long-term use.
[0057] The limiting component can prevent the baffle 300 from stopping in an unexpected position, avoid incorrect opening and closing of the atomizing port 210 due to improper position of the baffle 300, and thus ensure the normal operation of the dryer.
[0058] In one optional implementation, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the device body 100 is provided with a front support 110, and the drive motor 310 is installed on the front support 110 and located on the side of the front support 110 away from the drying chamber 101; the motor shaft 311 of the drive motor 310 passes through the front support 110 and is connected to the baffle 300.
[0059] In this embodiment, the front support 110 is a support structure at the front (near the user side) of the device body 100. The drive motor 310 is installed on the side of the front support 110 away from the drying chamber 101, that is, the drive motor 310 is located outside the drying chamber 101. This avoids the motor being exposed to the high-temperature environment of the drying chamber 101 for a long time, thereby extending the service life of the motor and reducing the failure rate. The drive motor 310 is located outside the drying chamber 101, providing better heat dissipation and simplifying the motor's heat dissipation design, thus reducing costs. The drive motor 310 is also located outside the drying chamber 101, making daily maintenance and troubleshooting easier without disassembling the drying chamber 101, improving maintenance efficiency. By isolating the drive motor 310 from the drying chamber 101, safety hazards inside the drying chamber 101 can be avoided in case of motor failure, such as short circuits causing fires. It also saves space inside the drying chamber 101, providing greater flexibility for the design and layout of other components.
[0060] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 1As shown, the dryer is also equipped with a return air pipe 400, which is connected to the atomizing device 200 and is used to remove the bubbles generated during the atomization process of the atomizing device 200.
[0061] When the atomizing device 200 is working, the atomizing plate atomizes water into tiny droplets. During this process, due to the surface tension of the liquid and the entrainment of air, tiny bubbles are generated on the surface of the atomizing plate. If these bubbles cannot be expelled in time, they will accumulate inside the cavity of the atomizing device 200. As the bubbles accumulate, the pressure inside the cavity will gradually increase. When the water pressure inside the cavity is too high, there is a risk of water leakage from the atomizing plate, which will affect the atomization effect and may even damage the atomizing plate.
[0062] In this embodiment, the return air pipe 400 is a conduit with one end connected to the atomizing device 200 and the other end leading to the outside of the atomizing device 200. Its function is to remove the air bubbles generated by the atomizing device 200, effectively solving the problem of air bubble generation during atomization and preventing the risk of increased water pressure inside the chamber and water leakage from the atomizing plate. This design improves the stability and reliability of the atomizing device 200, extends its service life, and enhances the overall performance of the clothes drying equipment.
[0063] The return air pipe 400 provides a channel to guide these air bubbles out of the atomizing device 200, thereby preventing bubble accumulation, maintaining normal pressure within the chamber, and avoiding water leakage due to excessive water pressure. The diameter and length of the return air pipe 400 need to be designed according to the air production of the atomizing device 200 and the overall structure of the equipment to ensure that the bubbles can be discharged smoothly. The connection point of the return air pipe 400 can be located near the area where the bubbles are generated, such as near the atomizing plate. The design of the return air pipe 400 needs to prevent liquid from being discharged with the air bubbles, which can be achieved by installing a liquid seal, a one-way valve, or other structures in the return air pipe 400.
[0064] In related technologies, since the atomizing device 200 requires the user to manually add purified water, and the space inside the dryer is limited, how to place the water box is also a problem.
[0065] In one optional implementation, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the dryer includes a first water storage box 500, which is installed on the top of the device body 100 and located above the atomizing device 200. The first water storage box 500 is connected to the atomizing device 200 through a pipe.
[0066] In this embodiment, the first water storage box 500 is used to store purified water added by the user, serving as the water source for the atomizing device 200. The first water storage box 500 is connected to the atomizing device 200 via a pipeline. The first water storage box 500 is designed to be detachably or fixedly installed on the top of the device body 100. Utilizing the gravity of the water itself, water can be more easily transported from the storage box to the atomizing device 200 through the pipeline, reducing the need for an additional water pump 800 and simplifying the water supply system. Placing the large-volume water storage box on top allows for more space for other internal components (such as the drum, motor, heating element, etc.). For users, inserting or removing the water storage box from the top is generally more convenient, especially in drum dryers.
[0067] In one optional implementation, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the dryer also includes a condensate water box 600. The first water storage box 500 and the condensate water box 600 are arranged side by side, which can make more effective use of the limited space inside the dryer and improve space utilization.
[0068] In another alternative embodiment, the dryer also includes a condensate tray 600, which has separate first and second cavities. The first cavity is used to collect condensate, and the second cavity forms a first water storage box 500. This integrates water storage and condensate collection functions into a single box, saving space and simplifying the overall structure.
[0069] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the main body of the device 100 is provided with a front support 110. The dryer also includes a second water storage box 700 and a water pump 800. The second water storage box 700 is installed on the front support 110. The water pump 800 is connected to the second water storage box 700 and the atomizing device 200 to deliver water from the second water storage box 700 to the atomizing device 200.
[0070] In this embodiment, the front support 110 is a support structure at the front of the device body 100 (near the user side). The second water storage box 700 is installed on the front support 110, so that the user can easily take it out to add water after opening the door without opening the main body of the dryer.
[0071] It should be noted that the atomizing device 200 only needs to be equipped with one of the first water storage box 500 and the second water storage box 700.
[0072] In an optional embodiment, the clothes drying device is equipped with a drive unit, such as a motor, with one end of the output shaft of the drive unit connected to a water pump 800 and the other end connected to an atomizing device 200. That is, the clothes drying device can drive the water pump 800 and the atomizing device 200 to work simultaneously. By driving the water pump 800 and the atomizing device 200 simultaneously with a single drive unit, the internal space occupied by the device can be reduced, making the overall structure more compact.
[0073] In one optional implementation, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the front support 110 is provided with a snap-fit connector 113, and the second water storage box 700 is snapped into the snap-fit connector 113.
[0074] For example, the structure of the snap-fit member 113 may include a snap-fit engagement of protrusions and grooves or other methods.
[0075] In an optional embodiment, the front support 110 is provided with a retrieval opening 111 for easy insertion and removal of clothing. The retrieval opening 111 is surrounded by a lip 112, which can be formed by a protruding structure around the retrieval opening 111 to enhance its structural strength. The lip 112 has mounting holes to which the second water storage box 700 can be detachably installed. This detachable installation of the second water storage box 700 facilitates maintenance and replacement, improving the maintainability of the device. The design of the lip 112 strengthens the retrieval opening 111 and serves as a positioning and support structure for the second water storage box 700, preventing accidental detachment.
[0076] In an optional implementation, the first water storage box 500 is equipped with a float switch, which is used to detect the water level in the first water storage box 500. When the water level in the first water storage box 500 is detected to be low, a prompt message can be sent to the user to remind the user to add water.
[0077] In one optional embodiment, the drive motor 310 is a stepper motor. The stepper motor receives pulse signals and rotates by a fixed angle each time. By controlling the number of pulses, the rotation angle of the motor can be precisely controlled, thereby precisely controlling the position of the baffle 300 connected to the motor, ensuring that the baffle 300 moves accurately to the first position and the second position.
[0078] In one alternative implementation, refer to Figure 7 As shown, the specific control methods for clothes drying equipment may include:
[0079] S1: The user selects the "Wrinkle Removal" / "Shirt" / "Fragrance" program and proceeds to S2;
[0080] S2: Select the "Wrinkle Removal" procedure? If yes, proceed to S3; otherwise, proceed to S4.
