[0016] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "horizontal," "vertical," "top," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used solely for the convenience of describing this utility model and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Example

[0018] like Figure 1-10 As shown, the self-cleaning locker for swimming pools in this embodiment includes a cabinet body 1 and a cabinet door 2 rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 is provided with clothing compartments 3 and shoe compartments 4. A cleaning component is provided in the shoe compartment 4. The cleaning component includes a water-absorbing element 5. The water-absorbing element 5 is disposed against the bottom wall of the shoe compartment 4. The water-absorbing element 5 is slidably connected to the shoe compartment 4. A driving component for driving the water-absorbing element 5 to perform reciprocating linear motion is provided between the water-absorbing element 5 and the shoe compartment 4.

[0019] Efficiently removes water from shoe racks and prevents dirt buildup: This design allows the absorbent components to fully contact the bottom of the shoe racks, and the reciprocating linear motion covers every area of ​​the bottom of the shoe racks, completely absorbing water and avoiding the slippery and dirty buildup problems caused by long-term water residue in traditional locker shoe racks.

[0020] Enhancing user experience and protecting clothing cleanliness: In swimming pool settings, users store their clothes in clothing racks and shoes in shoe racks. If the shoe racks become wet and dirty, not only is the experience of placing shoes unpleasant, but it can also contaminate clean clothes in the clothing racks above through air humidity or direct contact with the clothing. Actively cleaning the shoe racks with absorbent components keeps the inside dry and clean, making it more comfortable for users to place wet shoes and indirectly preventing the risk of clean clothes being contaminated by the wet and dirty environment of the shoe racks, significantly improving the user experience.

[0021] The shoe compartment can be equipped with sensors such as gravity sensors and distance sensors to determine whether there are shoes stored inside. When the sensors determine that there are no items in the shoe compartment, the water-absorbing component can perform water absorption on the shoe compartment.

[0022] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the water-absorbing component 5 includes a sponge seat 51 and a water-absorbing sponge 52 fixedly connected to the sponge seat 51. The water-absorbing sponge 52 is disposed against the bottom wall and side wall of the shoe rack 4, and the sponge seat 51 is disposed at intervals from the bottom wall and side wall of the shoe rack 4.

[0023] Absorbent sponge with no dead angles, completely removes water from the shoe compartment: The absorbent sponge adheres to both the bottom and side walls, absorbing water stains from both areas simultaneously. Combined with the drive component that moves the absorbent parts back and forth, it can achieve full coverage of water absorption inside the shoe compartment, thoroughly removing water accumulation.

[0024] Protective components are less prone to damage and have a longer service life: The core function of the sponge seat is to fix and support the absorbent sponge. If it is in direct contact with the shoe rack wall, the sponge seat will rub against the shoe rack wall when the drive component moves the absorbent part back and forth. Long-term use can easily lead to wear and deformation of the sponge seat, and even scratch the inner wall of the shoe rack. The spaced setting can avoid this friction, which not only protects the structural stability of the sponge seat and extends its service life, but also keeps the inner wall of the shoe rack intact and reduces cabinet wear.

[0025] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the sponge seat 51 is fixedly provided with a baffle 511, and the baffle 511 is provided on the side of the water-absorbing sponge 52 facing the cabinet door 2.

[0026] To prevent damage to the absorbent sponge from external forces and extend component lifespan: Swimming pool lockers are used frequently every day, and users may accidentally touch or squeeze the absorbent sponge when placing or taking out shoes. The baffle design can directly block external forces such as shoes touching the sponge, preventing the soft absorbent sponge from being deformed, torn, or displaced, and ensuring the structural integrity of the absorbent sponge.

[0027] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a partition 6 is provided between the clothing compartment 3 and the shoe compartment 4, and a sliding groove 61 is provided on the bottom surface of the partition 6. The sponge seat 51 is provided with a slider 512 that is slidably connected to the sliding groove 61. The driving assembly includes a screw 71 that is rotatably connected to the partition 6 and a motor 7 that drives the screw 71 to rotate. The slider 512 is threadedly connected to the screw 71.

[0028] High space utilization, reducing the space occupied by shoe compartments: The sliding grooves and screws are all set on the bottom surface of the partition, reducing the space occupied by shoe compartments and eliminating the need to open up an additional installation area inside the cabinet, making the overall structure of the wardrobe more compact.

[0029] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom wall of the shoe rack 4 is provided with a drawer 41, a water collection drawer 8 is slidably disposed in the drawer 41, and a plurality of water passage holes 42 are provided on the upper wall of the drawer 41.

[0030] Targeted water collection prevents secondary contamination within the shoe compartments: Water brought in by wet shoes from swimming pool users will initially flow directly into the water collection drawer below through the drainage holes, rather than accumulating randomly on the bottom wall of the shoe compartments. This targeted collection method prevents water from spreading within the shoe compartments.

[0031] Easy to clean and reduce maintenance costs: Staff or users can simply pull out the drawer along the slot to pour out the collected water directly, without disassembling the shoe compartments, wiping the bottom, or unclogging complex drainage pipes. Compared to the hassle of frequently cleaning the inside of shoe compartments in traditional lockers, this design greatly simplifies the water cleaning process, saving maintenance time and labor costs.

[0032] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the water collection drawer 8 is provided with an inner groove 81 for easy extraction.

[0033] This design provides a clear point of force application, avoiding the handle protruding outwards and interfering with the closing of the cabinet door.

[0034] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the cabinet 1 is provided with a drying assembly, which is used to dry the water-absorbing component 5, the shoe compartment 4 and the water-collecting drawer 8.

[0035] To prevent dampness from breeding mold and odors, keep the shoe racks clean and hygienic: The swimming pool environment is inherently humid. After the absorbent parts are full of water, the moisture remaining on the inner walls of the shoe racks, and the water droplets adhering to the drawers after they are tilted, if left in a damp state for a long time, will easily breed mold and produce odors. The drying components can dry the shoe racks, eliminating the damp environment at the source and preventing mold growth and odor residue.

[0036] Restores the function of the absorbent component and ensures subsequent cleaning efficiency: The drying component dries the absorbent component, restoring it to a full and dry state, ensuring that it can efficiently absorb water accumulated in the shoe rack every time the drive component moves the absorbent component, maintaining long-term stable cleaning ability.

[0037] Improving user comfort and avoiding discomfort from dampness: When using the locker, if the inner walls of the shoe compartments are damp or the absorbent components are wet, shoes may become coated with extra moisture or feel sticky to the touch. Damp drawers can also make hands dirty when cleaning. The drying components keep these areas dry, making the process of storing shoes and cleaning drawers more comfortable and avoiding the inconvenience caused by residual moisture.

[0038] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the drying assembly includes a hot air blower 9, the side wall and bottom wall of the shoe rack 4 are provided with air ducts 43, the inner wall of the shoe rack 4 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 44 communicating with the air ducts 43, and the hot air outlet of the hot air blower 9 is provided in communication with the air ducts 43.

[0039] This design enables seamless drying of the shoe rack: the hot air output by the hot air blower diffuses evenly from all sides of the shoe rack to the bottom, covering the water-absorbing parts, the inner wall of the shoe rack, and the contact area of ​​the water collection drawer, avoiding the problem of localized dampness caused by traditional one-way drying.

[0040] Directional hot air delivery ensures high drying efficiency and energy saving: The hot air blower is directly connected to the inside of the shoe compartment through the air duct. The hot air does not need to pass through other areas of the cabinet and can be directed to the core parts that need to be dried, reducing heat loss. At the same time, the distributed design of several air outlets allows the hot air to be evenly applied to the humid areas, avoiding local overheating and also preventing local undried areas.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
