DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

In the detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the invention.

In the description of the present invention, it is worthy to be noted that the terms “inner”, “outer”, “upper”, “lower”, “left” and “right” showing the direction or position are merely based on the drawings for convenience in describing, rather than indicating or implying that the claimed device or element is limited in a specific orientation or be constructed or operated in a specific orientation. These terms should not be construed as the limitation of the present invention.

FIGS. 1 to 8 are diagrams illustrating an example of the portable clothes dryer in accordance with one embodiment of the invention. The portable clothes dryer shown in FIG. 1 comprises a casing 1. The casing 1 may be provided with a knob 2, a handle 3, a power plug 5, air inlets 4 and one or more air outlets. A heating device 7 and a blower 6 are arranged inside the casing 1. The handle 3 rotates around a fixed portion of the casing 1, and it turns up for lifting and turns down as the dryer in operation. The air inlets 4 are configured to introduce air from outside when the dryer works. The power plug 5 is used to provide electricity supply to the portable dryer and power the heating device 7, the blower 6 and the controller. When the power plug is not in use, it is received in the casing 1, when the power plug is in use, it is being pulled out. The heating device 7 is arranged within the casing 1 to heat air. The portable clothes dryer further includes a detachable garment model 8. The clothes to be dried is put on the garment model 8 to dry. The garment model 8 is made of elastic material and has an inflatable chamber. The chamber has an air intake port 82 where air directed from the air outlet flows into. When the clothes dryer is at work, the air intake port 82 covers the air outlet as the garment model 8 is being installed, thereby allowing the blower to direct heated air to enter into the chamber of the garment model 8 and inflate the chamber.

The portable clothes dryer provided in this embodiment includes a casing 1, a heating device 7, a blower 6, and a detachable garment model 8. Due to the garment model with the inflatable chamber is detachable, also could be deflated and made of elastic material, the overall size when the dryer is not in use can be reduced to make it easy to carry; the clothes is put on the garment model neatly for drying so the clothes dried in this manner is flat without wrinkle and can be dressed immediately, and the ironing process is saved. In addition, the heated air blown by the blower 6 enters the chamber of the garment model 8, and the heat is directly transmitted to the clothes to be dried via the garment model 8 to evaporate moisture. Heated dry air is filled in the chamber constantly to enhance the drying efficiency. In addition, the chamber is smaller in contrast to the prior art due to fact that the clothes is put on the garment model to dry instead of being covered, the chamber is filled with heated air in a very short time, thereby further enhancing drying efficiency.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the blower 6 is disposed at a position corresponding to the air outlet and capable of being upwardly ejected. The blower 6 includes a cylindrical blower casing 61 with a top surface 611. A plurality of air outtake ports 62 are opened on the cylindrical side wall of the blower casing; when preparing the dryer for work, the blower ejects upwardly to expose the air outtake ports. The ejecting blower 6 protrudes from the top surface of the casing 1, so that the air flowing efficiency is improved, thereby enhancing the drying efficiency.

In this embodiment, when the blower 6 is ejected, the lower periphery of the blower casing 61 is in close contact with the air outlet, that is to say, the air in the duct cannot pass through the gap between the blower 6 and the air outlet; the air inlet 82 of the garment model 8 is installed at the lower portion of the blower casing 61 so that the air outlet 62 is located inside the chamber of the garment model 8 and air blown from the air outlet could enter into the chamber directly to improve the drying efficiency.

Various arrangements could be used to fix the air intake ports 82 of the garment model 8 on the blower casing 61. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, an annular groove 612 is disposed at the lower portion of the cylindrical side wall of the blower casing 61. An elastic fixing structure, for example, a pulling cord or elastic band is provided at the air intake port 82 of the garment model 8. The air intake port 82 of the garment model 8 could be installed in a convenient manner by stretching the air intake port 82 and cover it out of the groove 612.

Referring to FIG. 5, the air outlet has an upwardly funnel-shaped extending portion 9 to facilitate the installation and fixture of the air intake ports 82 of the garment model 8, and the upper end of the extending portion 9 is fixed on the top surface of the casing 1. That is to say, the funnel-shaped extending portion 9 is formed outwardly corresponding to the air outtake port. Accordingly, there is enough space for installing the air intake port 82 of the garment model 8, and further to make the appearance of the portable clothes dryer more concise.

The garment model 8 is preferably made of heat-permeable airtight elastic material, such as PVC. The garment model 8 comprises a top model and a bottom model which are used for drying coats and pants respectively, and further comprises other small models for drying small items. In addition, the garment model 8 further includes top models and bottom models in different size to ensure that the clothes to be dried could be in close contact with the garment model to improve flatness.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in order to control the pressure in the chamber of the garment model 8 as well as enable the air in the chamber to circulate, venting holes 83 are opened on the garment model 8, especially at the portion where the clothes are difficult to dry, such as the armpit portion of the top model or the connecting portion between the legs of the bottom model. The venting holes 83 allow air in the chamber to circulate drying clothes around and additionally could save room for heated air entering from the air intake port 82.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 8, in order to control the pressure in the chamber of the garment model 8, a pressure sensor is disposed at the air outlet to maintain pressure inside the chamber between the first preset pressure P1 and the second preset pressure P2. In the working process of the portable dryer, if the detected pressure P is higher than or equal to the second preset pressure P2, the blower 6 and the heating device 8 stop running; if the detected pressure P is lower than the preset pressure P1, the blower 6 and the heating device 8 are working. According to this arrangement, the blower 6 and the heating device 8 are intermittently stopped to maintain the pressure P in the garment model 8 between the first preset pressure P1 and the second preset pressure P2, so that the drying efficiency is enhanced and the power consumption is reduced.

The second preset pressure P2 is the maximum pressure that the garment model could bear, which is determined by the material of the garment model. The first preset pressure P1 could be set as atmospheric pressure or slightly larger than it. Preferably, the first preset pressure P1 could be set as the pressure value within the inflated chamber of the garment model 8 under the condition that the clothes is putting on, for example, the first preset pressure P1 is 1 atm to 1.5 atm.

In the present embodiment, the pressure sensor is provided on the top surface of the blower casing 61.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, the portable clothes dryer further includes one or more support rods 10 retractably disposed on the casing 1. When preparing the portable clothes dryer for use, the support rod 10 is being pulled out, and the garment model 8 is sleeved on the support rod 10. In this way, the support rod 10 is disposed in the chamber of the garment model 8 to support the garment model 8. The garment model 8 is supported by the supporting rod 10 and it could be put on the clothes to be dried before the chamber inflated by the blower 6.
