Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a ventilation aid device for a laundry drying stand,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a laundry drying apparatus, and more particularly, to a ventilation aiding apparatus for a laundry drying apparatus for maintaining ventilation due to smooth flow of dry air corresponding to the size of laundry.

The clothes dryer can be largely divided into a method of fixing to a ceiling or a wall and a method of movably mounting to a floor. In any case, socks, underwear, outerwear, and quilts vary in size, so if you put them in the same way, the fluidity of the air is reduced and the drying time is delayed. In particular, care must be taken not to reduce the air permeability when large-sized laundry is mounted in a narrow area.

As a prior art document for solving such disadvantages, reference can be made to Korean Patent Registration No. 1162014 (Prior Art 1), Korean Registered Utility Model No. 0475762 (Prior Art 2), and the like.

In the clothes dryer of the present invention, the drying rods and the ventilation members are rotated so as to rotate with respect to the drying rods, the nuts are engaged with the bolts, And a ventilation member which is coupled by a coupling part composed of a spring to be inserted, a cap nut to which a part of the spring is covered, and a washer inserted between the nut and the cap nut. Therefore, it is expected to eliminate the inconvenience of reversing a relatively large area of laundry.

The prior art document 2 includes a suspending member for separating the folded laundry in such a manner that both sides of the folded laundry are not closely contacted with each other while minimizing the contact area between the laundry and the hanging laundry, and securing an air passage between both sides of the laundry. And engaging means provided on the suspending member for releasably coupling the suspending member to the hanging bar of the drying rack. Accordingly, the drying time of the laundry can be shortened, and the effect of preventing the formation of streaks in the laundry is expected.

However, since the ventilation members of the prior art document 1 are fixed in position, the usability is lowered when drying laundry of various sizes at the same time, and the drying module of the prior art document 2 is detachable, but the flexibility to cope with various laundry and drying frames is insufficient.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The present invention proposes a mechanism for assisting laundry airflow on a cradle (13) of a laundry drying rack. For example, a main body 10 of a Y-type drying table has a plurality of cradles 13 on a frame 11. In particular, the upper holder 13 is disposed laterally with respect to the center bar, and the angles can be varied in various postures. The cradle 13 has a plurality of hooking rods 15 at regular intervals for supporting the laundry on a separate frame.

According to the present invention, a support base (20) having a comb-like body (22) stretchable and contractible between grips (21) is formed to support the laundry on the base (13). The support base (20) is in contact with the laundry at its outer surface and contacts the hook bar (15) at its inner surface. 1 and 2 illustrate a state in which a plurality of combs 22 are integrally formed between the three clasps 21. The gripper body 21 is a portion having no elasticity, and the comb tooth body 22 is a portion capable of varying in length by being stretched or shrunk. Between the neighboring combs 22, a ventilation groove 23 is formed to allow air flow to the laundry.

As a detailed configuration of the present invention, the comb teeth 22 of the support base 20 are characterized by having a connecting portion 25 and a cut-off portion 26 at an end in a repetitive pattern. The connecting portion 25 is a portion for connecting the neighboring combs 22 and the cutting portion 26 is a portion for separating the adjacent combs 22. 3 (a) illustrates a state in which the connecting portion 25 and the disconnecting portion 26 are formed symmetrically with respect to the hooking bar 15 at one side and the other side of the support 20. FIG. 3 (b) illustrates a state in which the connecting portion 25 and the disconnecting portion 26 are formed in an asymmetric zigzag shape at one side and the other side of the support 20. In the case of the former, it is advantageous to improve the durability, and in the latter case, it is advantageous to increase the stretchability.

On the other hand, when the cut-off portion 26 of the support table 20 is used, the wire hangers can be hanged at regular intervals instead of the laundry.

As a modification of the present invention, the connection portion 25 is characterized in that it has a structure in which the wrinkle 45 is formed to increase the elasticity, a structure in which the dimension is reduced, and a structure in which the elastic member is inserted. 5 illustrates a state in which the connecting portion 25 is formed as the corrugation 45. As shown in FIG. Fig. 5 exemplifies the form of Fig. 3 (b), but the same applies to the form of Fig. 3 (a). However, when the thickness of the connecting portion 25 is relatively reduced, the elasticity is increased. When the elastic piece is insert-molded into the connecting portion 25, stretchability and durability can be increased at the same time. The above-described configuration is not limited to any one, and may be applied to a plurality of configurations.

In addition, according to the present invention, a hook 30, which is detachably coupled to the hook bar 15 of the cradle 13, is integrally formed on the support base 20. The hooks (30) are integrally formed on the respective gripper (21) inside the support base (20). The three hanging bars 30 are somewhat different in shape in the city, but they are the same in terms of functions in which they are detached from the hanging bar 15.

As a detailed configuration of the present invention, the hook 30 includes a retaining plate 35 which is elastically deformable so as to be opposed to the retaining groove 33 so as to maintain engagement with the hook rod 15 . 4 (a), the hanger 30 has an opening 31 and a receiving groove 33, and a pair of opposing holding plates 35 ). Fig. 4 (a) illustrates a state in which the end of the holding plate 35 is in contact with and engaged with the hanger rod 15 having the smallest allowable diameter. Fig. 4 (b) illustrates a state in which the stopper plate 35 is elastically engaged when the stopper plate 35 is slightly widened when it is mounted on the hooking bar 15 having a somewhat larger diameter. Fig. 4 (c) shows a state in which the stopper plate 35 is elastically engaged with the hooking bar 35 when it is mounted on the hooking bar 15 having the maximum allowable diameter.

In this case, in terms of mass production, the support 20 and the hook 30 are preferably formed by injection molding using a resin material. As an example of the material, it is possible to use a resin molded article containing a recyclable, environmentally friendly polyolefin as a main component. As another example of the material, it is possible to use a polyester resin to which cyclohexanediol and polycarbonate diol are added in order to enhance elasticity and flexibility. Of course, it is also possible to control the physical properties by mixing the former and latter materials in an appropriate amount.

On the other hand, the clamping grooves 41 formed in the gripper body 21 of the support base 20 are grooves for preventing the separation of the clamping members by engaging with the ends of the clamps (not shown) so as not to be blown by the wind during drying of the laundry.

In another modification of the present invention, the support base 20 is further provided with a clip 43 which is elastically deformable so as to restrain the swinging of the laundry at the end of the clasp body 21. The clip 43 may be made of the same material as the support base 20 and the hook 30 or may be made of a metal material. In Fig. 5, it is preferable to dispose a clip 43 on the end of the clasp body 21 in a detachable manner. The clip 43 is restrained so as not to be blown by the wind during the drying of the laundry as in the case of the clamping groove 41. [

In use, when a large or small laundry is to be loaded on the cradle (13) of a drying rack, a large laundry is placed on the apparatus of the present invention which is engaged with the hooking rod (15). It is preferable to grasp the grippers 21 at both ends before stretching to extend or reduce to a length corresponding to the width of the laundry. The mechanism of the present invention may be engaged with the frame of the side portion having a diameter larger than that of the hooking bar 15 in the case where there is no room on the cradle 13. [

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It is therefore intended that such variations and modifications fall within the scope of the appended claims.
