Therefore, a setting of the linkage mechanism can make the hanging and drying member away from or close to the hanger body 1 when the folding feet 2 are unfolded or folded, so that no matter in a process of packaging and transportation or in a use process of users, the hanger body can be unfolded or folded in one step without separately operating the feet and the hanging and drying member, which reduces operation steps, saves operation time, improves a user experience by completing an operation at one time, and makes a packaging, installation and storage process easier and more convenient.
  • In some embodiments, the hanger body 1 is rectangular, the folding feet 2 are hinged on the hanger body 1, and the hanging and drying member is in sliding fit with a slide rail on the hanger body 1 through its sliding part; the hanger body 1 is provided with the slide rail formed by a cavity, and the hanging and drying member includes the sliding part and a hanging and drying rod 3 disposed on the sliding part, the sliding part being a support rod 4 disposed in the cavity and capable of reciprocating sliding along the cavity, and the hanging and drying member being a hanging and drying state 3 connected to a free end of the support rod 4. In such a manner, when the foldable hanger is packaged or stored, the hanging and drying member slides close to the hanger body 1 while the user rotates and folds the folding feet 2, so that the hanging and drying member also moves to the resetting state while the feet are folded to the storing state; when the foldable hanger is installed or used, the hanging and drying member slides away from the hanger body 1 while the user rotates to unfold the folding feet 2, so that the hanging and drying member also moves to the hanging and drying state while the feet are unfolded to the supporting state.
  • There is a pair of folding feet 2 disposed at a bottom of the hanger body 1, so that they can be folded and stored under the hanger body 1. There are two cavities, which are disposed along a width direction of hanger body 1 respectively and located at two ends of hanger body 1. There are two pairs of support rods 4, each pair of support rods 4 extend into a same end of two cavities respectively, and there is a hanging and drying rod 3 connected between free ends of each pair of support rods 4. Two hanging and drying rods 3 are respectively located at two sides of the hanger body 1, and can extend away from the hanger body 1 or retract back towards the direction close to the hanger body 1.
