Shoes are worn to protect feet from ground damage during walking, and various kinds of shoes have been proposed according to functions and uses, and recently, fashion is pursued apart from the functions, and a very wide variety of shoes have been provided.

For example, the outer shapes are classified into leather shoes, casual shoes, boots, and the like, and the outer shapes are classified into sports shoes, mountain climbing shoes, running shoes, and the like according to the functions.

When people walk in a wearing state, the shoes are in direct contact with the ground at any time and basically polluted by the ground, and when the ground is wet, the shoes are easy to wet, and particularly the shoes are wet due to foot sweat.

As described above, if the shoe is left in a contaminated or wet state, various bacteria such as mold may propagate in the shoe, which may damage the health of the foot, discolor and deteriorate the appearance quality, and the functional shoe may have a reduced functionality.

Thus, as described above, in the case where the shoes are contaminated or wet, the shoes are washed and dried in a normal natural state, but such a drying work has disadvantages in that the drying work is limited according to the natural state and the drying time takes a long time.

Hereinafter, the operation of the shoe drying device 100 of the present invention will be described.

First, water is injected into the water injection port 13 of the main body 10, and after disinfectant is injected into the chemical injection port 14, the power supply line 19 is connected to a power supply for use.

The connecting body 60 is connected to the main body 10, and the drying body 80 is connected to the connecting body 60.

Thereafter, the supply part 90 of the drying body 80 is arranged inside the shoe 1 desired to be dried, and then the ankle of the shoe 1 is covered with the covering part 81.

And, the device is driven by operating the operation portion 12, and thereafter the control portion 21 performs the entire operation.

First, the control part 21 may control the body 10 in various modes, such as a steam supply mode, a disinfectant supply mode, a pneumatic supply mode, an intermittent supply mode, and the like.

First, in the steam supply mode, the controller 21 starts the steam generator 40 with the suction pipe valve 32, the suction valve 27, the steam valve 41, and the spray valve 51 closed, and drives the drive motor 22 after a lapse of a predetermined time to open the steam valve 41.

Thus, the steam generated by the steam generator 40 is transmitted to the inside of the shoe 1 through the spouting port 15, and at this time, the suction valve 27 is closed without any additional suction, so that the steam is continuously stayed inside the shoe 1.

After a predefined time, the start of the steam generator 40 is stopped, thereby ending the steam supply mode.

In the sterilization supply mode, the control unit 21 drives the spray generator 50 and the drive motor 22 in a state where the suction pipe valve 32, the suction valve 27, the steam valve 41, and the spray valve 51 are closed, and then directly opens the spray valve 51. Generally, the spray is generated while operating, and therefore is preferably controlled as described above.

Thus, the spray liquid generated by the spray generator 50 is delivered to the inside of the shoe 1 through the discharge port 15, and the suction valve 27 is closed without any additional suction, so that the sterilizing spray liquid is continuously retained in the inside of the shoe 1.

After a predefined time, the activation of the spray generator 50 is stopped, thereby ending the spray supply mode.

In the air pressure supply mode, the controller 21 drives the driving motor 22 only in a state where the steam valve 41 and the spray valve 51 are closed and the remaining valves are opened.

Thereby, the generated air pressure is continuously supplied to the inside of the shoe 1, and further, the air inside the shoe 1 is continuously sucked and discharged through the suction port 83.

Finally, in the intermittent supply mode, the controller 21 drives the drive motor 22 in a state where the steam valve 41 and the spray valve 51 are closed.

And, the blow-out valve 26 and the suction valve 32, and the suction valve 27 are caused to perform the mutual opening and closing control at a predetermined time interval

In other words, after the air pressure is supplied to the inside of the shoe 1 for a certain time, two modes of sucking the air inside the shoe 1 for a certain time are repeated.

Thus, the drying of the shoe 1 is preferably carried out in the following manner: after the steam supply mode, the sterilization supply mode, the steam supply mode, and the sterilization supply mode are first performed, the air pressure supply mode or the intermittent supply mode is performed.

In particular, there is an advantage in that the steam supply mode and the sterilization supply mode are performed at a time for a certain time, and the sterilization, deodorization and drying of the inside of the shoe 1 are performed together in the case that the air pressure supply mode or the intermittent supply mode for drying the inside of the shoe 1 is performed.

The mode and the sequential operation of the modes may be set in advance by a program installed in the control unit 21.

The body 10 is configured to be attached to a wall surface in a form capable of realizing a high capacity, and may be used for military boot drying when the coupling holes 63 are formed at an appropriate distance by attaching the coupling body 60 to the upper end of the military bed.

The above description is only for the embodiment for implementing the shoe drying device according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the embodiment, and hereinafter, the claimed main point of the present invention is not limited to the scope of the specific claims, and the technical spirit of the present invention is included in the scope that anyone having general knowledge in the technical field can implement various modifications without departing from the scope of the claims.
