Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention relates to an umbrella dryer that efficiently dries umbrellas that are wet in the rain without deforming or damaging them.

Structures of conventional examples and their problems As dryers, there are centrifugal dehydrators that utilize the rotational driving force of a motor, and dryers that dry by blowing warm air or dehumidified air.

Conventional centrifugal dehydrators are used for items that can withstand deformation, such as clothing, and hot air dryers are used for items made of materials that can withstand high temperatures.

For this reason, when drying an umbrella wet from the rain using a conventional centrifugal dehydrator or dryer, the umbrella is made up of metal ribs and a thin nylon fabric, so conventional centrifugal dehydrators cause vibrations. Since the umbrella is large, there is a risk of deforming the umbrella or tearing the fabric part.Furthermore, in conventional hot air dryers, the umbrella fabric part is made of thin nylon, so there is a risk of the umbrella deforming. Another disadvantage is that drying an umbrella that has gotten wet from the rain using hot air or dehumidification requires a long drying time and increases power consumption.

Purpose of the invention This invention solves these problems.
When drying umbrellas, the purpose is to reduce vibrations during dehydration, prevent deformation and breakage of umbrellas, and increase umbrella drying efficiency.

Structure of the invention In order to achieve this purpose, a disk-shaped upper substrate and a lower substrate are attached to a rotating shaft that is rotationally driven by a motor, and blades are fixed to the circumferences of these upper and lower substrates. A dehydration tank is constructed by forming a dehydration tank, a hole for ventilation and a hole for inserting an umbrella are provided in the upper substrate, a cylinder for inserting and fixing the umbrella is attached to the upper substrate below the hole for inserting the umbrella, and a cylinder for inserting and fixing the umbrella is attached to the upper substrate. A cylinder facing the cylinder into which an umbrella is also inserted and fixed is attached to the lower substrate, and the dehydration tank is housed in the umbrella dryer main body, and the dehydration tank is driven by a heater and the motor to supply hot air from the heater to the dehydration tank. It is equipped with a blower that sends out air.

With this configuration, it is possible to reduce vibrations during dehydration of the umbrella dryer, prevent deformation and damage to the umbrella, and increase drying efficiency.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings showing one embodiment thereof.

Figure 1 shows the appearance of the umbrella dryer, where 1a is the main body of the umbrella dryer, and a truncated cone-shaped water splash prevention plate 1c.
is provided. Arrow 1b indicates the flow of air passing through the umbrella dryer main body 1. K is an umbrella.

In addition, Figures 2 and 3 are cross-sectional views of the same umbrella dryer, and 2d is the upper substrate of the dehydration tank D, with ventilation holes 2a.
A hole 2b into which an umbrella is inserted is provided. The upper substrate 2d of the dehydration tank D is welded to the rotating shaft 2c. 3a is a blade provided on the circumference of the dehydration tank D, and is welded to the disk-shaped upper substrate 2d, lower substrate 3d, and intermediate substrate 3k of the dehydration tank D at their circumferential parts, and is attached to the lower substrate 3d and the intermediate substrate 3k. The substrate 3k is provided with holes 3e and 3s for ventilation and drainage, respectively. Further, the cylinders 3b and 3c having holes 5a and 6a for ventilation and drainage, respectively, are the upper substrate 2d and the lower substrate 3.
d and are welded to the intermediate substrate 3k, respectively. The cylinders 3b and 3c serve to insert and fix the umbrella. 3h is motor 3 of dehydration tank D and blower 3p
3f is a bearing stand that supports the rotating shaft 2c of the dehydration tank D and the rotating shaft 3f of the blower 3p. 3g is a drain tray having a drain port 3i, 3
j is a tank that stores water discharged from the drain port 3i. 3I is a waterproof filter with good ventilation provided to prevent water from directly entering the hot air device during dehydration, 3m is a heater such as an electric heater, and 3q is a safety wire mesh.

With this configuration, since the dewatering tank D provided with the blades 3a has a large ventilation and drainage area as a whole,
The drying capacity of dewatering is increased, the drying efficiency of hot air is improved, the vibration of the dehydrating tank D can be reduced by providing the rotating shaft 2c, and the dehydrating tank D and the blower 3p are
Since the motor 3n is shared, power consumption can be reduced. In addition, the heights of the substrates 3d and 3k at the bottom of the dehydration tank are varied, which makes it possible to adapt to different types of umbrellas.

In addition, in Fig. 3, the cylinder 3 into which the umbrella is inserted and fixed is shown.
b, 3c are used, but the upper substrate 2 of dehydration tank D
A similar effect can be obtained by providing a cylinder having the same length between d and the lower substrate 3d.

Effects of the invention The umbrella dryer of this invention has a large ventilation and drainage area of the dehydration tank, so the dehydration and drying capacity is increased, and the umbrella dryer can be sufficiently dried by using a heater with low power consumption in the hot air device. Drying efficiency is increased, power consumption is reduced, and the umbrella is fixed,
This prevents deformation and damage to the umbrella, and also provides an excellent effect of reducing vibration by providing a rotating shaft in the dehydration tank. Furthermore, since the dehydration tank and the blower motor are shared, power consumption can be reduced.
