Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shoe box technology, specifically to a shoe box with a drying function. Background Technology

[0002] Damp shoes are a common problem in daily life, especially during the rainy season, snowy days, or after exercise. Damp shoes are not only uncomfortable to wear, but they can also breed bacteria, produce odors, and even lead to foot diseases. Therefore, shoe drying boxes are often used to heat and dry shoes.

[0003] When drying shoes, they are usually placed in a shoe box, and a fixed drying time is preset by a controller. The equipment automatically stops working after the set drying time is reached. This method of drying shoes is not adaptive to changes in humidity during the drying process. When the humidity of the shoes is high, the drying equipment may not be able to provide enough heat and airflow, resulting in incomplete drying after the set drying time is reached. On the other hand, when the shoes are close to dry, continuous high-power drying will waste energy and may cause the shoes to deform, come apart, or age due to over-drying, thus affecting the drying effect and lifespan of the shoes. Therefore, we propose a shoe box with a drying function. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shoe box with a drying function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, where the drying intensity cannot be adaptively adjusted according to the humidity changes during the shoe drying process. This may result in the drying equipment not being able to provide sufficient heat and airflow when the shoe humidity is high, leading to incomplete drying after the drying time is reached. On the other hand, when the shoes are close to dry, continuous high-power drying will cause energy waste and may cause the shoes to deform, separate, or age due to over-drying, thereby affecting the drying effect and service life of the shoes.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a shoe box with a drying function, comprising: a box body, an inner cavity provided inside the box body, and a lid rotatably provided on one side of the box body; It also includes: a drying component, which is installed on the box and is used to dry the shoes placed inside the box; The control component is located on the box and automatically adjusts the drying intensity of the drying component according to the humidity during the shoe drying process. The control component includes a mounting base that is fixedly connected to the box body. A resistor strip and an electromagnet are fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting base. A humidity sensor is installed inside the box body and is electrically connected to the electromagnet.

[0006] The drying assembly includes filter plates symmetrically arranged on the lower side of the box, a fan installed on the lower side of the box, and an electric heating element located on the upper side of the box above the fan.

[0007] An air inlet is provided between the lower side of the box and the receiving cavity, and an air outlet is provided on the upper side of the box.

[0008] The box body is fixedly connected to a cover, which is connected to the air vent. A controller is installed on one side of the box body.

[0009] The mounting base has a mounting block on its upper side, and a magnet block that repels the electromagnet is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting block.

[0010] The resistor bar has a sliding contact that slides on it, and one side of the mounting block is fixedly connected to the sliding contact.

[0011] The mounting block has limit rods slidably installed on both sides, and the limit rods are fixedly connected to the mounting base. A spring is fixedly connected to the mounting base on the other side of the mounting block.

[0012] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: This invention utilizes a drying component to uniformly dry shoes within a cavity. A control component automatically adjusts the drying intensity based on humidity changes during the drying process. When humidity is high, the drying intensity is increased to provide sufficient heat and airflow, improving the drying effect. When humidity is low, the drying intensity is reduced to avoid continuous high-power drying that wastes energy and causes over-drying, leading to shoe deformation, glue separation, or material aging. Furthermore, the control component prevents power fluctuations that could cause thermal shock to the shoes, affecting the drying effect and lifespan. Attached Figure Description

[0015] 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.

[0016] Example 1 Please see Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a shoe box with a drying function, comprising: a box body 11, an inner cavity 13 provided on the inner side of the box body 11, and a lid 12 rotatably provided on one side of the box body 11. In use, the lid 12 can be rotated open, shoes can be placed into the cavity 13 inside the box body 11, and then the lid 12 can be closed. The shoes are then dried by the drying component 2. The lid 12 can be made of a semi-transparent frosted material, which also allows the user to easily observe the drying process. It also includes: a drying component 2, which is disposed on the box body 11 and is used to dry the shoes placed in the box body 11; The control component 3 is set on the box 11. The control component 3 automatically adjusts the drying intensity of the drying component 2 according to the humidity during the shoe drying process.

[0017] In use, the drying component 2 can evenly dry the shoes in the receiving cavity 13. The control component 3 can automatically adjust the drying intensity of the drying component 2 according to the humidity changes during the drying process. When the humidity is high, the drying intensity of the shoes can be increased to provide sufficient heat and airflow to improve the drying effect. When the humidity is low, the drying intensity of the shoes can be reduced to avoid continuous high-power drying when the shoes are close to dry, which would waste energy and cause over-drying, resulting in deformation, glue separation, or material aging of the shoes. The control component 3 can also avoid the thermal shock to the shoes caused by power jumps, which would affect the drying effect and service life of the shoes.

[0018] The drying assembly 2 includes a filter plate 21 symmetrically arranged on the lower side of the box body 11. The filter plate 21 can filter the introduced gas to prevent impurities in the gas from entering. A fan 22 is installed on the lower side of the box body 11. An electric heating element 23 is arranged on the upper side of the box body 11 above the fan 22. A heat insulation layer can be arranged around the electric heating element 23 to prevent heat from spreading to non-working areas.

[0019] An air inlet 24 is provided between the lower side of the box body 11 and the receiving cavity 13. Multiple air inlets 24 can be arranged at equal intervals. The arrangement of the air inlets 24 around the perimeter of the shoes can improve the uniformity of hot air coverage on the shoes after the hot air is blown out through the air inlets 24, thereby improving the drying effect on the shoes. An air outlet 25 is provided on the upper side of the box body 11.

[0020] A cover 26 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the box body 11. The cover 26 is connected to the air outlet 25. The side of the cover 26 away from the air outlet 25 is connected to the outside. The cover 26 can guide the humid and hot airflow to be discharged in a directional manner. The cover 26 can be set to be inclined upward from the inside to the outside, which can facilitate the discharge of humid and hot airflow. A controller 27 is provided on one side of the box body 11.

[0021] In use, the controller 27 can control the fan 22 to work, and introduce the external gas into the lower part of the box 11 after being filtered by the filter plate 21. The introduced gas can be heated by the electric heating element 23. The hot air can then enter the receiving cavity 13 through the air inlet 24 to heat and dry the shoes in the receiving cavity 13. The hot and humid air generated during the drying process is discharged through the air outlet 25 and guided to the outside by the cover 26, thus drying the shoes.

[0022] Example 2 The control component 3 includes a mounting base 31 fixedly connected to the housing 11. A resistor strip 32 and an electromagnet 34 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting base 31. The resistor strip 32 is electrically connected to the fan 22, and the resistance value of the resistor strip 32 located on the side of the slider 33 away from the electromagnet 34 is connected to the circuit. A humidity sensor 39 is installed inside the housing 11, and the humidity sensor 39 is electrically connected to the electromagnet 34.

[0023] A mounting block 35 is provided on the upper side of the mounting base 31. A magnet block 36 that repels the electromagnet 34 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting block 35. A slider 33 is slidably provided on the resistor bar 32. One side of the mounting block 35 is fixedly connected to the slider 33. Limiting rods 37 are slidably provided on both sides of the mounting block 35. The limiting rods 37 are fixedly connected to the mounting base 31. The movement of the mounting block 35 can be guided and limited by the limiting rods 37 on both sides. A spring 38 that is fixedly connected to the mounting base 31 is fixedly connected to the other side of the mounting block 35.

[0024] During the shoe drying process, humidity sensor 39 detects the humidity level. When the humidity sensor 39 detects a higher humidity level, the current in the circuit connected to it is relatively larger. This results in a stronger repulsive force between the electromagnet 34 and the magnet 36, causing the mounting block 35 to move the slider 33 a greater distance away from the electromagnet 34. The spring 38 is compressed, reducing the resistance of the resistor strip 32 in the circuit. The controller 27 then increases the power of the fan 22, thereby increasing the hot air flow. Higher humidity indicates damp shoes, allowing for a greater supply of heat and airflow to match the increased hot air volume. This improves the drying effect on shoes. As the shoes continue to dry, when the humidity detected by the humidity sensor 39 decreases, the current in the connection circuit decreases, which reduces the repulsive effect of the electromagnet 34 on the magnet block 36. Under the elastic force of the spring 38, the mounting block 35 can drive the slider 33 to gradually move closer to the electromagnet 34, thereby reducing the power of the fan 22 and reducing the hot air flow. This avoids continuous high-power drying when the shoes are close to dry, which would waste energy and cause over-drying of the shoes, leading to deformation, glue separation, or material aging. In addition, the control component 3 can also prevent the thermal shock to the shoes caused by power jumps, which would affect the drying effect and service life of the shoes.
