Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities, and in particular to a folding drying rack. Background Technology

[0002] Folding drying racks are common household items in modern life, mainly used for drying clothes, socks, towels, and other items. Most existing folding drying racks, such as the one described in utility model patent CN219603979U titled "Clothes Rack," include a mounting plate, left and right scissor arms connected to the front ends of the mounting plate, and several drying rods connected between the two scissor arms. The spacing between adjacent drying rods is adjusted by extending or shortening the left and right scissor arms at the front of the mounting plate, thus allowing the rack to unfold or fold. In this technical solution, the left and right scissor arms use a scissor rod assembly structure, requiring multiple scissor rods to be interlocked, resulting in a complex structure that is inconvenient for production and assembly. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a folding drying rack. The drying rods are unfolded or folded by rotating two rotating arms relative to the mounting components. The structure is simpler and more practical, and it is convenient for production and assembly.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A folding drying rack includes a mounting assembly, two rotating arms, and a plurality of drying rods. The mounting assembly is used to mount on a medium surface. The rear ends of the two rotating arms are spaced apart and rotatably connected to the mounting assembly along two parallel first longitudinal axes. The same longitudinal plane containing the two first longitudinal axes is a base plane. The two rotating arms can switch between an extended state in which their front ends are spread out and a folded state in which their front ends are retracted. The plurality of drying rods are arranged in parallel in front of the base plane. Each drying rod is slidably hinged to the lower side of the two rotating arms along its length. Each drying rod can be retracted towards the base plane when the two rotating arms switch to the folded state, and can be extended towards the base plane when the two rotating arms switch to the extended state.

[0006] Preferably, the rotating arm includes an arm body and a plurality of rotating sliders that are slidably connected to each drying rod along the length direction of each drying rod. Each rotating slider is rotatably connected to the arm body along a second longitudinal axis arranged parallel to the first longitudinal axis. When the rotating arm rotates around the first longitudinal axis, it drives each rotating slider to slide along the length direction of each drying rod and rotates relative to the arm body around the second longitudinal axis.

[0007] Preferably, the drying rod includes a slide rail suspension groove disposed on its upper part, and the rotating slider includes a rotating part rotatably connected to the arm body along the second longitudinal axis and a sliding hook part slidably engaged in the slide rail suspension groove. The sliding hook part is longitudinally limited between the upper and lower side walls of the slide rail suspension groove, and can be guided by the sliding hook part moving along the slide rail suspension groove when the rotating slider slides along the length direction of the drying rod.

[0009] Preferably, the arm body includes a rotating column protruding along the lower side of the second longitudinal axis and a limiting member detachably connected to the lower end of the rotating column. The limiting member has a limiting plate protruding from the outer periphery of the rotating column. A rotating channel that can be rotatably sleeved on the outside of the rotating column is provided through the third connecting plate. After the third connecting plate is connected to the arm body, it is supported on the upper side of the limiting plate, and the top surface of the drying rod and the bottom surface of the limiting plate are arranged at intervals.

[0010] Preferably, the rear end of the arm body is rotatably connected to the mounting assembly via a connecting structure arranged along the first longitudinal axis. The connecting structure includes a mounting component embedded inside the mounting assembly and an assembly component detachably connected to the lower side of the mounting component.

[0011] Preferably, the distance between the rear ends of the two rotating arms is greater than the sum of the lengths of the two rotating arms. The rotating sliders on the arm body, which correspond to the drying rods from the closest to the base surface to the furthest from the base surface, are staggered along the width direction of the arm body from the side closest to the other arm body to the side furthest from the other arm body, and staggered along the length direction of the arm body from the end closest to the first longitudinal axis to the end furthest from the first longitudinal axis. In the folded state, the front ends of the two rotating arms are arranged opposite each other, and the two rotating arms are arranged along the same straight line direction, which is parallel to the base surface. Each drying rod is folded under the two rotating arms.

[0012] Preferably, the mounting assembly includes a mounting bracket and a positioning structure integrally formed with the mounting bracket. The positioning structure is used to position the mounting on the medium surface, and the rear ends of the two rotating arms are rotatably connected to the mounting bracket along two mutually parallel first longitudinal axes.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting bracket includes a mounting back plate for abutting against the surface of the medium, and a mounting top plate connected to the upper part of the mounting back plate and extending vertically forward from the mounting back plate.

The limiting component includes a limiting block and at least two limiting grooves arranged circumferentially along the first longitudinal axis, corresponding to the limiting block. One of the limiting block and the limiting grooves is disposed on the mounting assembly, and the other is disposed on the outer surface of the arm body. When the rotating arm rotates relative to the mounting assembly to the maximum extended state, the limiting block is positioned and engaged with one of the limiting grooves. When the rotating arm rotates relative to the mounting assembly to the folded state, the limiting block is positioned and engaged with the other limiting groove; and / or,

[0015] The rotating arm is positioned relative to the mounting assembly in an extended and folded state by a limiting component. The limiting component includes an arcuate groove arranged circumferentially along a first longitudinal axis and a limiting post arranged within the arcuate groove. One of the arcuate groove and the limiting post is located at the top of the rear end of the rotating arm, and the other is located on the underside of the mounting assembly.

[0018] This utility model of a folding drying rack can slide and rotate along the lower side of each drying rod towards the middle when the front ends of the two rotating arms are folded together, and drive each drying rod to move and fold towards the base surface. It can also slide and rotate along the lower side of each drying rod towards the two ends when the front ends of the two rotating arms are unfolded, and drive each drying rod to move and unfold towards the front of the base surface. Compared with the existing technology's structure design of multiple scissor rods that are cross-hinged, the structure is simpler and more practical. It only requires that the rear ends of the two rotating arms be rotatably connected to the mounting components along the two first longitudinal axes, and that each drying rod be slidably hinged to the lower side of the two rotating arms along its length direction, which is convenient for production and assembly.

[0050] like Figures 1-9 As shown in the figure, as an embodiment of this utility model, a folding drying rack is provided, including a mounting assembly 1, two rotating arms 2, and several drying rods 3. The mounting assembly 1 is used to install on surfaces such as walls, tiles, doors, and glass. The rear ends of the two rotating arms 2 are spaced apart and are rotatably connected to the mounting assembly 1 along two parallel first longitudinal axes L1. The same longitudinal plane containing the two first longitudinal axes L1 is the base plane S. The two rotating arms 2 can switch between an extended state A1 where their front ends are spread out and a folded state A2 where their front ends are retracted. Several drying rods 3 are arranged parallel to each other on the front side of the base plane S. Each drying rod 3 is slidably hinged to the lower side of the two rotating arms 2 along its length direction. Each drying rod 3 can be moved and retracted towards the base plane S when the two rotating arms 2 switch to the folded state A2, and can be moved and unfolded towards the front of the base plane S when the two rotating arms 2 switch to the extended state A1. The folding drying rack of this embodiment can slide and rotate along the lower side of each drying rod 3 towards the middle direction when the front ends of the two rotating arms 2 are folded together, and drive each drying rod 3 to translate and fold towards the base surface S. When the front ends of the two rotating arms 2 are unfolded together, they can slide and rotate along the lower side of each drying rod 3 towards the two ends of each drying rod 3, and drive each drying rod 3 to translate and unfold towards the front of the base surface S. Compared with the existing technology's structure design of multiple scissor bars that are cross-hinged, the structure is simpler and more practical. It only requires that the rear ends of the two rotating arms 2 be rotatably connected to the mounting assembly 1 along the two first longitudinal axes L1, and that each drying rod 3 be slidably hinged to the lower side of the two rotating arms 2 along its length direction, which is convenient for production and assembly.

[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the rotating arm 2 includes an arm body 21 and several rotating sliders 22 that are slidably connected to each drying rod 3 along the length direction of each drying rod 3. Each rotating slider 22 is rotatably connected to the arm body 21 along each second longitudinal axis L2 arranged parallel to the first longitudinal axis L1. When the rotating arm 2 rotates around the first longitudinal axis L1, it drives each rotating slider 22 to slide along the length direction of each drying rod 3 and rotates relative to the arm body 21 around the second longitudinal axis L2, so that each drying rod 3 can be moved towards the base surface S to retract or move forward of the base surface S to unfold as the two rotating arms 2 rotate around the first longitudinal axis L1.

[0052] like Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the drying rod 3 includes a slide rail suspension groove 31 disposed on its upper part. The rotating slider 22 includes a rotating part 221 rotatably connected to the arm body 21 along the second longitudinal axis L2, and a sliding hook part 222 slidably engaged in the slide rail suspension groove 31. The sliding hook part 222 is longitudinally limited between the upper and lower side walls of the slide rail suspension groove 31, and can be guided by the sliding hook part 222 moving along the slide rail suspension groove 31 when the rotating slider 22 slides along the length direction of the drying rod 3, so as to avoid the drying rod 3 swaying in the up and down direction during sliding and improve the stability during the sliding process.

[0053] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the front and rear sides of the drying rod 3 are recessed to form the slide rail suspension groove 31, and the two slide rail suspension grooves 31 are arranged back to back, so that the upper part of the drying rod 3 forms an I-shaped structure. The rotating part 221 includes a first connecting plate 2211 arranged on the front side of the drying rod 3, a second connecting plate 2212 arranged on the rear side of the drying rod 3, and a third connecting plate 2213 connecting the upper end of the first connecting plate 2211 and the upper end of the second connecting plate 2212. The lower end of the first connecting plate 2211 protrudes rearward to form a sliding hook part 222 corresponding to the slide rail suspension groove 31 on the front side. The lower end of the second connecting plate 2212 protrudes forward to provide a sliding hook part 222 corresponding to the slide rail suspension groove 31 on the rear side. Through the sliding connection between the front and rear sets of sliding hook parts 222 and the slide rail suspension groove 31, the stability of the sliding connection between the drying rod 3 and the two rotating arms 2 is better. The third connecting plate 2213 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the arm body 21 along the second longitudinal axis L2.

[0054] In this embodiment, the arm body 21 includes a rotating column 211 protruding from its lower side along the second longitudinal axis L2, and a limiting member 212 detachably connected to the lower end of the rotating column 211. The limiting member 212 has a limiting plate 2121 protruding from the outer periphery of the rotating column 211. A rotating channel 2214 is provided through the third connecting plate 2213 and rotatably sleeved on the outside of the rotating column 211. The rotating slider 22 rotates around the rotating column 211 through the rotating channel 2214 and rotates relative to the arm body 21 along the second longitudinal axis L2. After the third connecting plate 2213 is connected to the arm body 21, it is supported on the upper side of the limiting plate 2121 to prevent the rotating slider 22 from falling off relative to the arm body 21. Furthermore, the top surface of the drying rod 3 and the bottom surface of the limiting plate 2121 are arranged at intervals to avoid interference caused by friction between the top surface of the drying rod 3 and the bottom surface of the limiting plate 2121 when the rotating arm 2 slides relative to the drying rod 3. In this embodiment, the limiting member 212 is set as a screw, which has a simple and practical structure and is convenient to assemble and disassemble. In other embodiments, the limiting member 212 can also be set as a bolt, pin, rivet or other assembly structure.

[0055] like Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, the rear end of the arm body 21 is rotatably connected to the mounting assembly 1 via a connecting structure 23 arranged along the first longitudinal axis L1. The connecting structure 23 includes a mounting member 231 embedded within the mounting assembly 1 and an assembly member 232 detachably connected to the lower side of the mounting member 231. The assembly member 232 includes an assembly shaft 2321 arranged along the first longitudinal axis L1 and an assembly head 2322 protruding from the lower outer periphery of the assembly shaft 2321. The rear end of the arm body 21 is rotatably connected relative to the assembly shaft 2321 and is arranged between the assembly head 2322 and the mounting assembly 1. An assembly channel 101 is provided on the lower side of the mounting assembly 1 for the assembly shaft 2321 to extend into the mounting assembly 1 and detachably connect with the mounting member 231, facilitating the assembly or disassembly of the rotating arm 2 and the mounting assembly 1. The rear side of the mounting assembly 1 has a mounting channel 102 for the mounting component 231 to be embedded inside the mounting assembly 1. This allows the mounting component 231 to be embedded from the rear side of the mounting assembly 1, concealing it within the assembly 1. Compared to directly placing the mounting component 231 on the top of the mounting assembly 1, the orientation of the mounting component 231 is fixed by the mounting assembly 1. This makes it easier to operate the assembly 232 during assembly or disassembly, eliminating the need to simultaneously operate to fix the orientation of the mounting component 231. Furthermore, it makes the outer surface of the mounting assembly 1 more concise and aesthetically pleasing. In this embodiment, the mounting component 231 is a nut structure, and the assembly 232 is a bolt structure, resulting in a simple, practical, and stable connection.

[0056] In this embodiment, the connecting structure 23 further includes a height limiting member 233 sleeved outside the assembly 232. The height limiting member 233 is sleeved outside the assembly shaft 2321 and axially supported between the assembly head 2322 and the lower side of the mounting assembly 1. A rotating platform 2331 protrudes from the outer periphery of the lower end of the height limiting member 233. The rear end of the arm body 21 is rotatably sleeved outside the height limiting member 233 and limited between the rotating platform 2331 and the lower side of the mounting assembly 1. The rotating platform 2331 is axially supported under the rotating arm 2 to prevent the rotating arm 2 from falling off relative to the mounting assembly 1. The assembly head 2322 is axially supported under the rotating platform 2331 to prevent the height limiting member 233 from falling off relative to the mounting assembly 1. Furthermore, when the arm body 21 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 around the first longitudinal axis L1, the top surface of the arm body 21 and the lower side surface of the mounting assembly 1 are arranged with a gap to avoid interference caused by friction between the top surface of the arm body 21 and the lower side surface of the mounting assembly 1 when the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 around the first longitudinal axis L1.

[0057] like Figures 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, the distance between the rear ends of the two rotating arms 2 is greater than the sum of the lengths of the two rotating arms 2. The rotating sliders 22 on the arm body 21, corresponding to the drying rods 3 from closest to the base surface S to furthest from the base surface S, are staggered along the width direction of the arm body 21 from the side closest to the other arm body 21 to the side furthest from the other arm body 21, and staggered along the length direction of the arm body 21 from the end closest to the first longitudinal axis L1 to the end furthest from the first longitudinal axis L1. This ensures that the drying rods 3, arranged sequentially in front of the base surface S at different intervals, can simultaneously translate relative to the base surface S as the two rotating arms 2 rotate. In the folded state, the front ends of the two rotating arms 2 are arranged opposite each other, and the two rotating arms 2 are arranged along the same straight line parallel to the base surface S. Each drying rod 3 is folded under the two rotating arms 2, making the overall structure of the folded drying rack compact and narrow when in the folded state A2, facilitating storage, packaging, or transportation. When the two rotating arms 2 are arranged vertically on the front side of the base surface S, they are in the maximum extended state A1, so as to avoid excessive rotation of the rotating arms 2 and cause interference between each drying rod 3 and each rotating slider 22.

[0058] In this embodiment, the mounting assembly 1 includes a mounting frame 11 and a positioning structure 12 integrally formed with the mounting frame 11. The positioning structure 12 is used for positioning on the medium surface. The rear ends of the two rotating arms 2 are rotatably connected to the mounting frame 11 along two mutually parallel first longitudinal axes L1. In this embodiment, the mounting frame 11 and the positioning structure 12 are integrally formed and can be made of plastic material, which can be injection molded by an injection molding machine for easy mass production. In addition, the rotating arms 2 and the drying rod 3 are also made of plastic material for easy mass production.

[0059] like Figure 3 , Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting frame 11 includes a mounting back plate 111 for abutting against the surface of the medium, and a mounting top plate 112 connected to the upper part of the mounting back plate 111 and extending vertically forward from the mounting back plate 111. The positioning structure 12 is configured as a suction cup structure for convenient installation and positioning. The positioning structure 12 is arranged on the upper side of the mounting top plate 112 and connected to the mounting top plate 112. The rear ends of the two rotating arms 2 are rotatably connected to the lower side of the mounting top plate 112 along two mutually parallel first longitudinal axes L1. In the folded state, the two rotating arms 2 are retracted to the lower side of the mounting top plate 112, making the overall structure of the folding drying rack compact and narrow. In other embodiments, the positioning structure may also be connected to the mounting back plate 111, or simultaneously connected to both the mounting top plate 112 and the mounting back plate 111.

[0060] like Figure 9As shown, in this embodiment, the positioning structure 12 includes a suction cup component 121, an operating component 122, and a suction cup bracket 123 integrally formed with the mounting bracket 11. The suction cup component 121 includes a suction cup member 1211 arranged on the rear side of the suction cup bracket 123, and a connecting member 1212 that connects to the suction cup member 1211 and protrudes from the front side of the suction cup bracket 123 through a movable channel 1231 on the suction cup bracket 123. The suction cup member 1211 is made of soft materials such as soft silicone or soft rubber, and the connecting member 1212 is made of hard materials such as plastic or metal. The rear side of the suction cup bracket 123 has a pressing ring 1232 for pressing against the peripheral area of ​​the suction cup member 1211, and a movable groove 1233 arranged inside the pressing ring 1232. The operating component 122 is arranged on the front side of the suction cup bracket 123 and connected to the front end of the connecting component 1212. It can move relative to the connecting component 1212 based on the applied force to pull the middle area of ​​the suction cup component 1211 forward within the movable groove 1233, forming a vacuum suction cavity between it and the medium surface, thereby firmly adhering the folding drying rack to the medium surface. In this embodiment, the operating component 122 and the front end of the connecting component 1212 are threadedly connected via a threaded assembly. The operator pulls the suction cup component 1211 by rotating the operating component 122 about the axis of the connecting component 1212. As another embodiment of this invention, the operating component 122 and the front end of the connecting component 1212 can also be rotatably connected via a hinge shaft arranged parallel to the medium surface, allowing the operator to pull the suction cup component 1211 by flipping the operating component 122 about the axis of the hinge shaft.

[0061] like Figure 8As shown, in this embodiment, the rotating arm 2 is limited relative to the mounting assembly 1 in an extended state A1 and a folded state A2 by a limiting component 4. The limiting component 4 includes a limiting block 41 and two limiting grooves 42 arranged circumferentially along the first longitudinal axis L1, corresponding to the limiting block 41. The limiting block 41 is disposed on the mounting assembly, and the limiting grooves 42 are disposed on the outer surface of the arm body 21. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 to the maximum extended state, the limiting block 41 of A1 is positioned and engaged with one of the limiting grooves 42, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the maximum extended state A1. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 to the folded state A2, the limiting block 41 is positioned and engaged with the other limiting groove 42, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the folded state A2. In other embodiments, the limiting grooves 42 may be provided in more quantities, so that the rotating arm 2 can be limited relative to the mounting assembly 1 in more extended states A1. In another embodiment of this utility model, the limiting block 41 can be disposed on the outer side of the arm body 21, while the limiting groove 42 can be disposed on the mounting assembly 1. In some other embodiments, the limiting assembly 4 can also be configured to include a limiting groove and at least two limiting blocks arranged corresponding to the limiting groove. One of the limiting groove and the limiting block is disposed on the mounting assembly 1, and the other is disposed on the outer side of the arm body 21. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 to the maximum extended state, the limiting groove is positioned and engaged with one of the limiting blocks, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the maximum extended state A1. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting assembly 1 to the folded state, the limiting groove is positioned and engaged with the other limiting block, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the folded state A2. In another embodiment of this utility model, the limiting component 4 can also be configured to include an arc groove arranged along the circumferential direction of the first longitudinal axis L1 and a limiting post arranged in the arc groove. One of the arc groove and the limiting post is located at the top of the rear end of the rotating arm 2, and the other is located on the lower side of the mounting component 1. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting component 1 to the maximum extension state A1, the limiting post abuts against one end of the arc groove, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the maximum extension state A1. When the rotating arm 2 rotates relative to the mounting component 1 to the folded state A2, the positioning post abuts against the other end of the arc groove, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the folded state A2.

[0062] like Figure 8As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting assembly 1 includes mounting side plates 113 arranged at both ends. The two mounting side plates 113 extend downward from both ends of the mounting top plate 112. When the two rotating arms 2 are extended to their maximum extension state A1 relative to the mounting assembly 1, the side of the arm body 21 away from the other arm body 21 abuts against the inner side of the corresponding mounting side plate 113, thereby limiting the rotating arm 2 to the maximum extension state A1. The lower ends of the two mounting side plates 113 extend inward with a support edge 114. When the mounting assembly 1 is extended to its maximum extension state A1, the arm body 21 is supported on the upper side of the support edge 114. The rotating arm 2 is supported by the support edge 114 and the assembly 232, which enhances the drying load-bearing capacity of the folding drying rack.

[0063] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, two positioning blocks 32 are protruding from the slide rail suspension grooves 31 on both the front and rear sides of the drying rod 3, respectively corresponding to the rotating sliders 22 arranged on the two rotating arms 2. The inner side of the rotating slider 22 is recessed with a positioning groove 223 adapted to the positioning block 32. When the two rotating arms 2 are in the folded state A2, each rotating slider 22 on the two rotating arms 2 is positioned and engaged with the corresponding positioning block 32 through the positioning groove 223, thereby stably holding each drying rod 3 in the folded position. In addition, the positioning groove 223 is set as an opening structure that penetrates the inner end of the sliding hook part 222. The positioning grooves 223 on the two sliding hook parts 222 on the rotating slider 22 are arranged opposite to each other to form an operating channel for the limiting plate 2121 to pass through the upper side of the sliding hook part 222, which facilitates the assembly of the rotating slider 22.

[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the drying rod 3 is connected to several clips 33 for clamping and hanging clothes for drying. In other embodiments, the clips 33 can also be replaced by hooks or other hanging structures for hanging clothes for drying.

[0065] like Figure 3 , Figure 8As shown, in this embodiment, the rotating arm 2 further includes a gripping structure 24 connected to the arm body 21 and protruding from the upper side of the arm body 21, allowing the operator to grip the gripping structure 24 to operate the rotating arm 2 to rotate around the first longitudinal axis L1. The protruding structure 241 of the gripping structure 24 protruding from the upper side of the arm body 21 is arranged along the length direction of the arm body 21 on the side away from the other arm body 21. When the rotating arm 2 is in the folded state A2, the protruding structure 241 is arranged on the front side of the mounting assembly 1, i.e., the mounting top plate 112, and protrudes from the upper side of the mounting top plate 112, which is convenient for the operator to grip and does not interfere with the folding and storage of the arm body 21 under the mounting top plate 112. The gripping structure 24 and the arm body 21 are detachably connected by a snap-fit ​​assembly 5 for easy assembly. The grip structure 24 has a positioning plate 242 extending vertically inward from the lower end of the protruding structure 241 at its bottom. The positioning plate 242 abuts against the upper side of the mounting top plate 112. The buckle assembly 5 includes several buckles 51 protruding from the lower side of the positioning plate 242 and several slots 52 on the arm body 21 corresponding to the buckles. The grip structure 24 and the arm body 21 are detachably connected by buckles and corresponding slots. In this embodiment, the protruding structure is set as a whale-shaped plate structure to increase its fun. In other embodiments, the protruding structure can also be set as other shapes such as clouds, squares, and circles.
