Electric gust drying rack

Abstract

The present invention relates to an electric gust drying rack which is inexpensive and free from the burden of electricity charges, while exhibiting performance comparable to that of an electric dryer. By arranging pipes of middle shelves in pairs at intervals, a gust of air can effectively enter the interior of the laundry. The laundry can be rapidly dried by generating a gust of air upward from the bottom by using a ventilator at the lower portion and generating a gust of air downward from above via a ceiling fan at the top. The gust of air from the lower portion and the gust of air from the upper portion collide and scatter in the laundry, thereby improving drying efficiency.

Description

Electric blast dryer

[0001] The present invention relates to an electric gust dryer that quickly removes moisture from laundry by utilizing gusts of wind generated from a fan such as a ventilation fan or a ceiling fan, and is developed from the same structure as a conventional clothes drying rack (Korean Patent No. 10-0694884) and a multipurpose mobile drying rack (Korean Utility Model No. 20-0450680). Specifically, the present invention relates to an electric gust dryer that allows a ventilation fan installed on the bottom of an electric gust dryer to blow gusts of wind from the bottom of the electric gust dryer toward the sky toward the lower part of laundry on a middle shelf, and a ceiling fan installed on the upper part of the electric gust dryer to blow gusts of wind from the sky toward the floor toward the upper part of laundry on the middle shelf, thereby allowing the upper and lower winds to collide and disperse with each other on laundry spread on the middle shelf, thereby quickly drying the laundry.

[0002] Commonly used laundry drying devices include the traditional multi-purpose portable drying rack, where laundry is hung to dry, and the electric dryer, which uses electric power to dry laundry. Of course, there are also electric washer-dryers that combine washing and drying functions in a single device, eliminating the need to transfer laundry to the dryer after washing. However, the basic functions and characteristics of electric dryers remain the same.

[0003] Multipurpose mobile drying racks have the disadvantage that they take a long time to dry and can produce an unpleasant odor when it rains or is cloudy, which limits their use, especially during the rainy season when it rains for several days.

[0004] In the case of electric dryers, although a fast drying time is an advantage, electric dryers are relatively more expensive than multi-purpose portable drying racks and consume more electricity, which may affect the household electricity rate tiering system and make electricity bills a burden on daily life, making them inefficient in terms of cost-effectiveness for ordinary people.

[0005] Meanwhile, various designs have been invented to shorten the drying time and enable use regardless of cloudy or rainy weather by adding a blower or hot air to a multipurpose mobile drying rack. However, due to the inefficiency of the blower and hot air system structure, the wind is not strong enough to blow a gust of wind on the laundry, and the complexity of the structure makes it unsuitable for home use, so it has not been able to improve the shortcomings of conventional multipurpose mobile drying racks.

[0006] In addition, the multipurpose mobile drying rack has a pipe arrangement for the shelf for hanging laundry at even intervals, so the laundry is hung on one pipe, and when this happens, the laundry is folded in half and the folded inner surfaces stick together, so the inner surfaces do not allow air to pass through well, which reduces the drying efficiency.

[0009] The present invention is intended to solve the problems of the prior art in which a blower and a heater are added to a multipurpose mobile drying rack, and the purpose of the present invention is to provide an electric gust dryer that maintains the simple structure of the prior art multipurpose mobile drying rack while simultaneously blowing gusts of air toward laundry from above and below the middle shelf on which laundry is spread out, thereby causing the upper and lower gusts of air to collide with each other and disperse from the laundry, thereby quickly removing moisture from the laundry.

[0010] In addition, the present invention aims to improve the disadvantage of a conventional multipurpose mobile drying rack in which laundry is folded in half and the inner surfaces of the laundry stick together when hung on one pipe of a middle shelf, by arranging the pipes of the shelf in pairs of two adjacent ones and hanging the laundry across the two pipes, so that the laundry does not fold and the inner surfaces do not stick together, and a gust of wind effectively blows on the inner surface of the laundry to quickly remove moisture from the laundry.

[0011] In addition, the present invention has a drying capacity comparable to that of an electric dryer, but can be manufactured and supplied at a relatively much lower price, so that ordinary people can purchase it without burden and use it conveniently without worrying about electricity bills, thereby contributing to improving the standard of living of ordinary people.

[0013] In addition, the lower gust module (10) of the electric gust drying machine (0) of the present invention is characterized by a structure in which the lower gust module (10) is independently placed on the floor and a leg (12) that changes the direction of the wind so that the wind blows from the floor toward the sky is connected to a ventilation fan (11).

[0014] In addition, the lower gust module (10) of the electric gust dryer (0) of the present invention is characterized by having a net (13) attached to the ventilator (11) to prevent an object from falling on the blades of the ventilator (11) and causing the ventilator (11) to stop operating and a dangerous situation resulting therefrom.

[0015] In addition, the socket (25) installed in the center of the upper beam (23) of the electric blast drying rack (0) of the present invention is manufactured in the shape of a nut with a thread to which the head (26) of a bolt-shaped ceiling fan (24) can be connected, and the head (26) of the ceiling fan (24) is connected, so that the ceiling fan (24) is firmly fixed to the upper beam (23) of the electric blast drying rack (0) without shaking.

[0016] The electric gust drying rack (0) of the present invention has a structural feature in that the pipes (7) of the first and second shelves (22) and the second shelf (6) in the middle are arranged in pairs with two pipes each at an interval of two pipes and the laundry is hung across the two adjacent pipes (7), so that the laundry is not folded in half and the gust of wind can effectively blow against the inner surface of the laundry. In addition, the lower gust module (10) of the electric gust drying rack (0) generates a gust of wind from the bottom of the electric gust drying rack (0) toward the sky toward the lower end of the laundry on the middle shelf, and the upper gust of wind module (20) of the electric gust drying rack (0) generates a gust of wind from the sky toward the bottom of the electric gust drying rack (0) toward the upper end of the laundry on the middle shelf, so that the upper and lower gusts of wind collide with each other and scatter from the laundry on the middle shelf, and an epochal drying effect comparable to that of an electric dryer can be expected.

[0017] In addition, the electric gust dryer (0) of the present invention can prevent unpleasant odors from emanating from laundry by blowing gusts of wind up and down even when it rains for several days, such as during the rainy season, and can also be expected to have an excellent drying effect.

[0018] In addition, the electric gust drying rack (0) of the present invention can be used as a multi-purpose drying rack capable of drying objects that contain moisture, such as wet shoes, etc., by placing them face down on the net (13) of the lower gust module (10) to dry them.
