Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of towel rack technology, specifically to a swing arm electric heating towel rack. Background Technology

[0002] A towel rack is a household item consisting of two supports holding one or more horizontal bars, used for hanging towels, bath towels, and other items. It is typically installed on a bathroom wall. They come in various materials, including brass, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and zinc alloy. Structurally, they can be divided into single-layer and double-layer types; and in terms of shape, they can be categorized as towel racks, towel bars, or towel rings. Some towel racks also have heating, drying, and sterilization functions, serving not only practical purposes but also aesthetic purposes.

[0003] Existing towel racks, to prevent towels from remaining damp and breeding bacteria, incorporate heating rods inside the towel bars for rapid drying and improved efficiency. However, towels have a certain length, and to avoid uneven drying due to overlapping towels, the spacing between the bars needs to be increased. This increases the overall height of the towel rack, significantly taking up valuable room space. Furthermore, with the rack fixed to the wall, the small gap between the fixed bars and the front hinders quick towel placement. Therefore, we propose a swing-arm electric heated towel rack. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a swing-arm electric towel rack. Through the arrangement of an upper fixed frame and a lower fixed frame, the tops of two sets of hollow rotating rods are rotatably connected to the upper fixed frame via an upper connecting piece, and the bottoms of both sets of hollow rotating rods are rotatably connected to the lower fixed frame via a lower connecting piece. The two sets of hollow rotating rods can rotate between the upper and lower connecting pieces. When the two sets of hollow rods rotate, they drive several sets of staggered swing arms to rotate from the inside to the outside of the towel rack. After placing towels, the swing arms are rotated to be parallel to the wall, and then a heating mechanism jointly set in the inner cavity of the swing arms is activated to dry the towels. This reduces space requirements while facilitating the placement and collection of towels, improving the efficiency of the towel rack and solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a swing arm electric towel rack, including an upper fixed frame, with two sets of upper connecting parts at the bottom of the upper fixed frame connecting two sets of hollow rotating rods. The bottom of each set of hollow rotating rods is connected to a lower fixed frame through a set of lower connecting parts. The two sets of hollow rotating rods can rotate between a set of upper connecting parts and a set of lower connecting parts. Two sets of swing arms are symmetrically installed in the middle of one set of hollow rotating rods, and a set of swing arms is fixedly installed in the middle of the other set of hollow rotating rods. The inner cavities of all three sets of swing arms are provided with a heating mechanism.

[0006] Preferably, a set of connecting plates is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of both the upper and lower fixed frames and the vertical rods. The two sets of connecting plates aligned with the upper and lower fixed frames are bolted together by through screws. The two sets of upper connecting parts, the two sets of hollow rotating rods, and the two sets of lower connecting parts are respectively movably fitted onto the outside of a set of screws.

[0007] Preferably, the three sets of swing arms are evenly distributed in a staggered manner in the vertical direction, and all three sets of swing arms are arranged in a U-shaped arc.

[0011] Preferably, a set of sealing caps is installed on the openings at the top of the two sets of vertical rods of the upper fixing frame and at the bottom of the two sets of vertical rods of the lower fixing frame.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This utility model utilizes the connection relationship between the upper fixed frame, upper connecting piece, hollow rotating rod, lower connecting piece, and lower fixed frame. Two sets of hollow rotating rods can rotate between one set of upper connecting piece and one set of lower connecting piece. When the two sets of hollow rods rotate, they drive several sets of staggered swing arms to rotate from the inside to the outside of the towel rack. After the towels are placed, the swing arms are rotated to be parallel to the wall, and then the heating mechanism set in the inner cavity of the swing arms is activated to achieve the effect of quickly drying the towels.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a swing arm electric towel rack, including an upper fixed frame 1. Two sets of hollow rotating rods 3 are connected to the bottom of the upper fixed frame 1 by two sets of upper connecting parts 2. The bottom of each set of hollow rotating rods 3 is connected to a lower fixed frame 5 through a set of lower connecting parts 4. The two sets of hollow rotating rods 3 can rotate between a set of upper connecting parts 2 and lower connecting parts 4 respectively. Two sets of swing arms 8 are symmetrically installed in the middle of one set of hollow rotating rods 3, and a set of swing arms 8 is fixedly installed in the middle of the other set of hollow rotating rods 3. The inner cavity of each of the three sets of swing arms 8 is provided with a heating mechanism.

[0024] In use, through the setting of the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed frame 5, the tops of the two sets of hollow rotating rods 3 are rotatably connected to the upper fixed frame 1 through a set of upper connecting parts 2, and the bottoms of the two sets of hollow rotating rods 3 are rotatably connected to the lower fixed frame 5 through a set of lower connecting parts 4. The two sets of hollow rotating rods 3 can rotate between a set of upper connecting parts 2 and lower connecting parts 4 respectively. When the two sets of hollow rods rotate, they drive several sets of staggered swing arms 8 to rotate from the inside to the outside of the towel rack. After the towels are placed, the swing arms 8 are rotated to be parallel to the wall, and then a set of heating mechanisms set in the inner cavity of the swing arms 8 are activated to dry the towels. This reduces space while facilitating the placement and collection of towels, improving the efficiency of the towel rack. You can choose to use one side of the swing arms 8 according to the number of towels to be dried. For example, if the number is small, use the single right swing arm 8; if the number is average, use the left swing arm 8; and if the number is large, use both swing arms 8 at the same time.

[0025] A set of connecting plates 6 are fixedly installed in the inner cavity of both the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed frame 5. The two sets of connecting plates 6 aligned with the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed frame 5 are bolted together by through screws 7. The two sets of upper connecting parts 2, the two sets of hollow rotating rods 3, and the two sets of lower connecting parts 4 are respectively movably fitted onto the outside of a set of screws 7. Through the bolting relationship between the screws 7 and the connecting plates 6 by nuts at both ends, the distance between the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed frame 5 is limited, ensuring that the upper connecting parts, hollow rotating rods 3 and lower connecting parts are stably installed together, and improving the rotational stability of the hollow rotating rods 3.

[0026] The three sets of swing arms 8 are evenly distributed in a staggered manner in the vertical direction. The staggered and even distribution of the swing arms 8 in the vertical direction avoids mutual interference during rotation. The distance between the two sets of swing arms 8 on one side is increased, and the space is small when stored inside the towel rack, which reduces the space occupied. In addition, all three sets of swing arms 8 are set in an arc U-shape, which increases the towel drying area and the internal airflow space when the towels are folded and placed, thereby improving the efficiency of towel drying.

[0027] The heating mechanism includes a power cord 9, one end of which passes through the cavity of the upper fixed frame 1. The output end of the power cord 9 is electrically connected to two sets of circuit lines 10. The output ends of the two sets of circuit lines 10 are electrically connected to several sets of heating rods 11. The several sets of heating rods 11 are respectively installed in the inner cavity of a set of swing arms 8. When one end of the power cord 9 is plugged into the power socket, the heating rods 11 inside the swing arms 8 are powered through the circuit lines 10. The heating rods 11 are heated and the heat is diffused to the outside through the swing arms 8, thereby achieving the effect of drying towels. The heating mechanism also includes two sets of independent switches (not shown in the figure) to control the start and stop of the heating rods 11 on one side. The two swing arms 8 on both sides can independently start the heating function to adapt to heating different numbers of towels, making the towel rack more energy-efficient and reducing consumption. The heating mechanism also includes some auxiliary circuit components, which will not be described in detail here.

[0028] Both sets of upper connecting parts 2 have a set of through holes 12 at the top. One end of each of the two branch lines 10 passes through a set of through holes 12 and enters the inner cavity of a set of hollow rotating rods 3. The setting of the through holes 12 makes it easy to introduce the branch lines into the interior of the hollow rods and make electrical connections with the heating rods 11. It is worth noting that the branch lines are reserved with sufficient rotation length to avoid the branch lines 10 being stretched and broken when the swing arm 8 rotates.

[0029] Two sets of fixing rods 13 are fixedly installed on one side of both the upper fixing frame 1 and the lower fixing frame 5. One end of each of the four sets of fixing rods 13 is bolted to the wall via a set of mounting plates. By setting the fixing rods 13, the upper fixing frame 1 and the lower fixing frame 5 are bolted to the designated position in front, achieving the effect of quick and easy installation of the towel rack.

[0030] A sealing cap 14 is installed on the top of the two sets of vertical rods of the upper fixed frame 1 and the bottom of the two sets of vertical rods of the lower fixed frame 5. The top of the two sets of vertical rods of the upper fixed frame 1 and the bottom of the lower fixed frame 5 are set open to facilitate the installation and removal of the screw 7. The sealing cap 14 is used to seal the openings to prevent dust and water from entering and corroding the internal structure, thereby improving the service life of the towel rack.

[0031] In practical use, the hollow rotating rod 3 is first connected to the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed frame 5 through the upper connecting piece 2 and the connecting piece. The internal wiring is also connected. Then, the upper fixed frame 1 and the lower fixed piece are fixed by bolts. Finally, the whole towel rack is bolted to the designated position on the wall through the fixing rod 13, thus realizing the fixed installation of the towel rack. When it is necessary to dry wet towels, the two sets of hollow rods are rotated to drive several sets of staggered swing arms 8 to rotate from the inside to the outside of the towel rack. After the towels are placed, the swing arms 8 are rotated to be parallel to the wall. Then, the electric heating rod 11 set in the inner cavity of the swing arm 8 is activated to heat the towels, so as to achieve the effect of rapid drying. This reduces the space required and makes it convenient to place and collect towels, thus improving the efficiency of the towel rack.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
