Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a clothes drying device embedded in a ceiling of a building or the like.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, a clothes dryer is a storage box having a hanger hook inside and is provided with a warm air generator and a ventilation port. The warm air generator is composed of an intake fan and a heater that sucks indoor air and sends warm air to the inside. The ventilation port is an opening that discharges moist air from the inside of the clothes dryer.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Conventionally, it was difficult to secure a place for installing this type of clothes dryer because it was installed indoors. In addition, the damp air discharged from the ventilation port increased the indoor humidity and generated a bad odor, which was uncomfortable. An object of the present invention is to provide a clothes dryer which is easy to install and can be used comfortably.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The clothes dryer of the present invention has a door on the lower surface, a lifting hanger hook inside, and a clothes storage with an intake fan and a ventilation opening on the peripheral or upper surface. It's complicated.

[0005]

[Action]

 Since the clothes dryer of the present invention is provided with a lifting hanger hook inside the clothes storage, it is possible to take in and out clothes and the like near the hand. In addition, since an air intake fan and a ventilation port are provided on the peripheral surface or the top surface, the air in the attic can be sucked in and exhausted to the attic again. Also, since the door is aligned with the ceiling opening and the clothes storage is embedded in the back of the hut, the space behind the hut can be used effectively.

[0006]

【Example】

 A clothes dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 1, a clothes dryer 10 includes a door 1 on the lower surface, an elevating hanger hook 2 inside, and an intake fan 3 and a ventilation port 4 on both end surfaces 8a and 8b, respectively. Is embedded in the attic 7 with the door 1 aligned with the ceiling opening 6.

[0007] The door 1 is a pair of plate materials having a surface with a decorative finish, and opens the double door with the edge 1a facing downward. A latch mechanism (not shown) is provided on the edge 1a of the door 1. The door 1 is opened and closed by operating this latch mechanism from below with an operating rod (not shown). The intake fan 3 is housed inside a rectangular cylindrical body 3a. The cylindrical body 3a forms a ventilation path that connects the inside of the clothes storage 8 and the attic 7 with each other. The ventilation port 4 is a slit-shaped opening having a plurality of holes. The clothes storage 8 is a box having a lower opening 8c, and the vicinity of the periphery of the opening 8c is substantially flush with the lower surface of the ceiling plate 9.

As shown in FIG. 2, the elevating and lowering hanger hook 2 is a hanger main body 22 having three suspension rods 21 arranged side by side at the bottom thereof and suspended by a pantograph 20. The pantograph 20 has a plurality of link mechanisms 25 and 26 connected in series. The link mechanism 25 is formed by connecting a pair of connecting rods 24 having hinge portions A and B respectively formed at both ends and a central portion by the hinge portions B to each other. The link mechanism 26 is formed by connecting a pair of connecting rods 23, which have hinge portions A and B formed at both ends thereof, with each other through their hinge portions B. The link mechanisms 25 are connected by the hinge portions A corresponding to each other. The same applies to the connection between the link mechanism 25 and the link mechanism 26. The hinge portions A and B are formed by loosely fitting a hinge pin (not shown) into the insertion holes 27 formed in the connecting rods 23 and 24, respectively.

When the clothes dry storage 10 is used, the door 1 is opened using the operating rod, and the elevating hanger hook 2 is lowered from the lower opening 8c. After hanging clothes or the like (not shown) on the hanging bar 21 of the lifting / hanging hanger hook 2, the lifting / hanging hanger hook 2 is raised and the door 1 is closed. The suction fan 3 is rotated to blow the air in the attic 7 into the clothes storage 8. In this way, the clothes dry storage 10 uses the air in the back of the house 7 that is relatively dry compared with the air in the room, so that clothes can be dried efficiently. Moreover, since the air used to dry the clothes inside the storage 8 is exhausted again to the attic 7 through the ventilation port 4, it is comfortable without raising the indoor humidity or causing a bad odor to enter the room. . In addition, since the lifting hanger hook 2 is provided inside the clothes storage 8, it is convenient to easily put in and take out clothes and the like near the hand. Also, since the space in the attic 7 can be effectively used, the living space inside the room can be kept wide.

The cylindrical body 3 a may be provided with a heater or the like for heating the air taken in by the intake fan 3. Further, as the elevating means, a winding reel wound with a wire may be used.

[0011]

[Effect of the device]

 Since the clothes drying device of the present invention is provided with the intake fan and the ventilation port on the peripheral surface or the upper surface, the clothes are dried by using the air in the attic which is relatively dry compared with the air in the room. In addition, the air used to dry the clothes inside is exhausted again from the ventilation port to the back of the hut, so it is comfortable without raising indoor humidity or giving a bad odor to the room. Also, since a lifting hanger hook is provided inside the clothes storage, it is convenient to easily put in and take out clothes and the like near the hand. In addition, since the doors are aligned with the ceiling openings and the clothes storage is embedded in the back of the hut, the living space can be kept wide by effectively using the space in the back of the hut.
