[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides a technical solution: a clothes drying frame, including two parallel uprights 2, with a base 1 installed at the lower end of each upright 2. The height of the base 1 can be adjusted by a conical seat 12 to allow the frame to be either fixed or movable. Each upright 2 is fitted with a crossbeam connecting joint 5, and crossbeams 6 are inserted and fixed between their joints. Clothes are hung on the horizontally arranged crossbeams 6. Another upright 2 is connected to each upright 2 via an extension joint 7, and this other upright 2 is inserted into the bottom upright 2. The top upright 2 is located within the bottom upright 2. The telescopic design allows for adjustment of the height of the clothes drying frame. The length of the crossbeam 6 can also be adjusted by extending the joint 7, further expanding the height and width of the clothes drying frame to meet customer drying needs. A suction cup connecting joint 8 is fixed to the upper end of the upright 2. A suction cup rod assembly 9 is hinged to one side of the suction cup connecting joint 8, and the other end of the suction cup rod assembly 9 is attached to the wall or window. The suction cup rod assembly 9 supports the clothes drying frame, preventing it from tilting. Furthermore, the dimensions of the upright 2 and crossbeam 6 can be increased or decreased according to actual needs, ensuring the area of ​​the clothes drying frame meets the customer's drying requirements.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the crossbeam connecting joint 5 includes a vertical sleeve 51 and a horizontal clamping plate 53. The vertical sleeve 51 is sleeved and fixed to the column 2. The horizontal clamping plate 53 is formed on the side of the vertical sleeve 51. A pressure column 54 is inserted into the horizontal clamping plate 53. One end of the pressure column 54 is an arc-shaped surface, and the bottom of the horizontal clamping plate 53 is also an arc-shaped surface, further increasing the pressure on the crossbeam 6. This makes the side of the crossbeam 6 match the contact surface of the horizontal clamping plate 53 and the pressure column 54, increasing the contact area with the crossbeam 6 and reducing pressure. To prevent the crossbeam 6 from shifting, a second tightening sleeve 55 is connected to the surface of the transverse clamping plate 53 via a threaded connection 52. The rotation of the second tightening sleeve 55 deforms the distance between the transverse clamping plates 53, pressing the pressure column 54 tightly within the transverse clamping plate 53. The crossbeam 6 is located between the pressure column 54 and the transverse clamping plate 53. Simultaneously, the rotation of the second tightening sleeve 55 causes it to move inward along the transverse clamping plate 53, further pushing the pressure column 54 inward, thus pressing the pressure column 54 tightly onto the crossbeam 6. This ensures the stability of the crossbeam 6 and prevents it from shifting.

[0031] The lower end of the vertical sleeve 51 is formed with a sleeve with a thread 52 on its surface. A strip groove is opened on the surface of the sleeve. A second tightening sleeve 55 is connected to the thread 52 on the sleeve to fix the vertical sleeve 51 to the column 2. The rotation of the second tightening sleeve 55 reduces the width of the strip groove in the sleeve, further clamping the column 2 in the vertical sleeve 51.

[0032] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the base 1 includes a sleeve 11 and a ball bearing mounting seat 13. The upper end of the sleeve 11 is a hollow tube, and the sleeve 11 is sleeved and fixed to the lower end of the column 2. The ball bearing mounting seat 13 is sleeved on the lower end of the sleeve 11. A large ball bearing groove 111 is formed at the bottom of the sleeve 11, and a small ball bearing groove 112 is formed on the surface of the large ball bearing groove 111. A large ball bearing 14 is embedded in the large ball bearing groove 111, and a small ball bearing 15 is embedded in the small ball bearing groove 112. The large ball bearing 14 is located in the middle of the small ball bearing 15. On the surface, the small ball bearing 15 and the large ball bearing 14 are tangent to each other, and the large ball bearing 14 and the small ball bearing 15 are in point contact, which further reduces the friction of the large ball bearing 14. The large ball bearing 14 is located between the ball bearing mounting seat 13 and the sleeve 11. The lower end of the ball bearing mounting seat 13 is provided with a ball bearing outlet 131. The lower end of the large ball bearing 14 protrudes from the ball bearing outlet 131, so that the large ball bearing 14 can support the clothes drying frame. At the same time, the rolling of the large ball bearing 14 facilitates the movement of the clothes drying frame.

[0033] like Figure 4 and 8 As shown, the base 1 also includes a conical seat 12. The outer surface of the ball bearing mounting seat 13 is formed with threads. A threaded sleeve 121 is formed inside the conical seat 12. A reinforcing rib 122 is formed between the threaded sleeve 121 and the inner wall of the conical seat 12. The threaded sleeve 121 and the ball bearing mounting seat 13 are threadedly connected. By rotating the conical seat 12, the height of the conical seat 12 on the ball bearing mounting seat 13 can be adjusted. When the bottom surface of the conical seat 12 is lower than the large ball bearing 14, the conical seat 12 supports the clothes drying frame and ensures the stability of the clothes drying frame. When the bottom surface of the conical seat 12 is higher than the bottom surface of the large ball bearing 14, the large ball bearing 14 supports the clothes drying frame. The rolling of the large ball bearing 14 facilitates the overall movement of the clothes drying frame.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, two sleeve assemblies 3 are also fitted onto the column 2. Folding rods 4 are hinged between the cross-distributed sleeve assemblies 3 on the two columns 2. The two folding rods 4 are hinged by a pin. The cross folding of the folding rods 4 causes the sleeve assembly 3 to move up and down along the column 2. At the same time, the change in the angle between the folding rods 4 adjusts the width between the columns 2.

[0035] like Figure 3As shown, the sleeve assembly 3 includes a sleeve 31, a gripper sleeve 32, and a first tightening sleeve 33. The gripper sleeve 32 is sleeved on the column 2. The lower end of the gripper sleeve 32 is threadedly connected to the first tightening sleeve 33. The gripper sleeve 32 has a strip groove. The rotation of the first tightening sleeve 33 deforms the distance between the strip grooves, further clamping the gripper sleeve 32 and fixing it to the column 2. The upper end of the gripper sleeve 32 is inserted into the sleeve 31. The side of the sleeve 31 is formed with a hinge plate. The hinge plate has a round hole. The folding rod 4 also has a round hole. The folding rod 4 is hinged between the hinge plates by a pin.

[0036] A positioning strip 321 is formed on the surface of the other end of the gripper sleeve 32. Multiple positioning grooves 311 are axially distributed on the inner wall of the sleeve 31. The positioning grooves 311 and the positioning strip 321 cooperate to make the sleeve 31 fit on the gripper sleeve 32 and to position the angle of the sleeve 31. The orientation of the hinge plate is further adjusted so that the hinge plates on the sleeves 31 on both sides are symmetrically distributed, and the folding rod 4 is hinged between the hinge plates on both sides.

[0037] The extended joint 7 includes a clamping sleeve 71 and a third tightening sleeve 72. The structure of the clamping sleeve 71 is the same as that of the gripper sleeve 32. The extended joint 7 is inserted into the upper end of the column 2. Another column 2 is inserted into the clamping sleeve 71. The third tightening sleeve 72 is threaded onto the clamping sleeve 71. Tightening the third tightening sleeve 72 clamps the clamping sleeve 71 onto the column 2.

[0038] The suction cup rod assembly 9 includes a suction cup rod 91, one end of which is connected to a hinge joint 92, and the other end of which is connected to a suction cup 93. A hinge plate is formed on one side of the suction cup connecting joint 8, and the hinge joint 92 is embedded in the hinge plate. The hinge joint 92 is hinged to the hinge plate by a pin, thereby allowing the angle of the suction cup rod 91 to be adjusted. At the same time, a ball joint is connected to the other end of the suction cup rod 91, and the suction cup 93 is connected to the ball joint, allowing the suction cup 93 to be adjusted at any angle and adhered to the window or wall to ensure the verticality of the clothes drying frame.
