The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art according to specific situations.

Based on the problem that a bearing seat cannot stably support a shaft due to unbalanced load of a roller in the conventional clothes drying equipment pointed out by the background art, the invention provides the clothes drying equipment, aiming at enabling a bearing chamber structure to have movement allowance in the axial direction and the radial direction, and enabling the bearing chamber structure to relatively stably support the roller shaft, so that the service lives of the roller shaft, the bearing and the bearing chamber structure are prolonged, the maintenance times are further reduced, the cost of maintaining the clothes drying equipment by a user is reduced, the generation of noise is reduced, the influence of the noise on the user is reduced, and the user experience is improved.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the clothes drying apparatus of the present invention comprises a cabinet 1, a drum rotatably provided in the cabinet 1, the fixed component 2 is arranged in the box body 1 and connected with the box body 1, the rear flange 3 of the roller is connected with a roller shaft 4, a bearing 5 is sleeved on the roller shaft 4, the bearing 5 is accommodated in a bearing chamber structure 6, the bearing chamber structure 6 is arranged on a first opening 20a formed on the fixing member 2 in a penetrating mode, the outer diameter of the bearing chamber structure 6 is smaller than the diameter of the first opening 20a so as to allow the bearing chamber structure 6 to move along the radial direction when the roller rotates, a first limiting member 7 and a second limiting member 8 are arranged on the front side and the rear side of the fixing member 2 respectively, and the first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8 are jointly arranged to allow the bearing chamber structure 6 to move along the axial direction when the roller rotates and limit the movement of the bearing chamber structure 6 along the axial direction.

In a possible case, a plurality of holes are formed on the rear side wall of the drum, an air duct is connected to the front end of the drum, and a fan is disposed in the air duct, so that when clothes are dried, the fan is started to form negative pressure, so that relatively dry air outside the drum enters the drum through the plurality of holes on the rear side wall, and humid air inside the drum enters the air duct and is discharged out of the clothes drying apparatus. Of course, the above is only one possible arrangement of the structure related to the air circulation in the clothes drying apparatus, and those skilled in the art can flexibly arrange the arrangement of the structure related to the air circulation in practical applications, and such adjustment and change of the arrangement of the structure related to the air circulation do not constitute a limitation to the present invention, and shall be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

In a possible situation, a motor and a transmission belt are arranged in the box body 1, one end of the transmission belt is sleeved on the output shaft of the motor, the other end of the transmission belt is sleeved on the roller, and the motor drives the roller to rotate through the transmission belt. Of course, the roller may be driven to rotate by other methods, and those skilled in the art may flexibly set the driving method of the roller in practical applications as long as the driving method is applicable to the technical solution of the present invention.

When the drum rotates, the load in the drum is unbalanced, the load is transferred to the bearing housing structure 6, the bearing housing structure 6 may be offset, and the outer diameter of the bearing housing structure 6 is smaller than the diameter of the first opening hole 20a, so that the bearing housing structure 6 may not be in contact with the first opening hole 20a at all times during the rotation of the drum although the bearing housing structure 6 is offset, thereby enabling the bearing housing structure 6 to stably support the bearing 5, the drum shaft 4, and the drum. The difference between the diameter of the first opening 20a and the outer diameter of the bearing housing 6 should be at least greater than the excursion range of the bearing housing 6 during rotation of the drum, for example: when the offset range of the bearing chamber structure 6 is 1.5cm, the difference between the diameter of the first opening 20a and the outer diameter of the bearing chamber structure 6 may be set to 2cm, and when the offset range of the bearing chamber structure 6 is 1cm, the difference between the diameter of the first opening 20a and the outer diameter of the bearing chamber structure 6 may be set to 1.7cm, and those skilled in the art may reasonably set the difference between the diameter of the first opening 20a and the outer diameter of the bearing chamber structure 6 according to the offset range of the bearing chamber structure 6 in practical applications, as long as the bearing chamber structure 6 can not contact with the first opening 20a all the time during the rotation of the drum.

It should be noted that the first and second stop members 7 and 8 are jointly configured to allow the bearing housing structure 6 to move axially when the drum rotates and to stop the movement of the bearing housing structure 6 in the axial direction, i.e., when the drum rotates, the bearing housing structure 6 moves axially, due to the spacing between the first and second stop members 7, 8, the first and second stop members 7, 8 are able to allow the bearing chamber structure 6 to move axially as the drum rotates, and the bearing chamber structure 6 may touch the first stop member 7 and the second stop member 8 when a movement in the axial direction occurs, thus, the first and second stop members 7, 8 allow the bearing housing structure 6 to move in the axial direction as the drum rotates, while also being able to limit the movement of the bearing housing structure 6 in the axial direction.

When the drum is not rotating, the outer bottom of the bearing housing structure 6 is in contact with the bottom of the first opening 20a in the stationary member 2, and the stationary member 2 can support the bearing housing structure 6, thereby indirectly supporting the drum. In one possible case, a support wheel is provided at each of left and right sides of a lower portion of a front end of the drum to further support the drum. In another possible case, the left and right sides of the lower portion of the front end of the drum are respectively provided with a support wheel, and the left and right sides of the lower portion of the rear end of the drum are also respectively provided with a support wheel to further support the drum. Of course, other ways to further support the roller may be adopted, and those skilled in the art may flexibly set other ways to further support the roller in practical applications, and such adjustment and change to the specific supporting way of the roller do not limit the present invention, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

In the above technical solution, the fixing member 2 may be a fixing plate, a fixing block, a fixing frame, etc., and the specific connection form of the fixing member 2 and the case 1 may be that the fixing member 2 and the case 1 are integrally disposed (for example, welding, integral casting, etc.), or the fixing member 2 and the case 1 are detachably connected (for example, screwing, clamping, etc.), and those skilled in the art may flexibly set the specific structure of the fixing member 2 and the specific connection form of the fixing member 2 and the case 1 in practical application, as long as the fixing member 2 can support the bearing chamber structure 6 when the drum does not rotate, thereby indirectly supporting the drum. In the above, the drum includes a cylindrical wall and a rear side wall, the rear flange 3 of the drum is actually the rear side wall of the drum (only the rear flange is shown in the drawings, the cylindrical wall of the drum is not shown), the rear flange 3 may be integrally disposed with the cylindrical wall of the drum (for example, welding, integral casting, etc.), or may be detachably connected with the cylindrical wall of the drum (for example, screwing, clamping, etc.), a person skilled in the art may flexibly set a specific connection form of the rear flange 3 and the cylindrical wall of the drum in practical application, and such adjustment and change of the specific connection form of the rear flange 3 and the cylindrical wall of the drum do not limit the present invention, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, the bearing 5 is accommodated in the bearing chamber structure 6, and the bearing chamber structure 6 plays a role of accommodating and supporting the bearing 5. It should be noted that, the front and back sides of the fixing member 2 are respectively provided with the first stopper member 7 and the second stopper member 8, specifically, the first stopper member 7 may be located on the front side of the fixing member 2, the second stopper member 8 may be located on the back side of the fixing member 2 (as shown in fig. 2), or the second stopper member 8 may be located on the front side of the fixing member 2, and the first stopper member 7 may be located on the back side of the fixing member 2. The first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8 can adopt limiting plates, limiting blocks and the like, and a person skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific structures of the first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8 in practical application, and such adjustment and change of the specific structures of the first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8 do not limit the present invention, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 2 to 5, the first stopper member 7 is connected with the bearing chamber structure 6, the first stopper member 7 is detachably connected with the second stopper member 8 through a support member 9, the support member 9 is inserted through a second opening 20b formed on the fixing member 2, and the support member 9 has an outer diameter smaller than that of the second opening 20b to allow the support member 9 to be movable in a radial direction when the drum rotates. The supporting member 9 may be a cylindrical supporting member 9 (as shown in fig. 5), or the portion of the supporting member 9 passing through the second opening 20b may be cylindrical, and other portions may be other shapes, and those skilled in the art may flexibly set the specific structure of the supporting member 9 in practical application, as long as the supporting member 9 can make a certain distance between the first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8, so that the first limiting member 7 and the second limiting member 8 can allow the bearing chamber structure 6 to move in the axial direction when the drum rotates and limit the movement of the bearing chamber structure 6 in the axial direction. The difference between the diameter of the second opening 20b and the outer diameter of the support member 9 should be at least greater than the excursion range of the bearing housing structure 6 when the drum is rotating, for example: when the offset range of the supporting member 9 is 1.5cm, the difference between the diameter of the second opening 20b and the outer diameter of the supporting member 9 may be set to 2cm, and when the offset range of the supporting member 9 is 1cm, the difference between the diameter of the second opening 20b and the outer diameter of the supporting member 9 may be set to 1.7cm, and those skilled in the art may reasonably set the difference between the diameter of the second opening 20b and the outer diameter of the supporting member 9 according to the offset range of the supporting member 9 in practical applications, as long as the supporting member 9 can be kept from contacting the second opening 20b all the time during the rotation of the drum. An alternative to the above embodiment is that the first and second stop members 7 and 8 are connected to the housing 1 but not to the bearing housing structure 6 and are disposed on the front and rear sides of the bearing housing structure 6, respectively, so that the first and second stop members 7 and 8 can also allow the bearing housing structure 6 to move in the axial direction when the drum rotates and limit the movement of the bearing housing structure 6 in the axial direction.

Taking the first stopper member 7 located at the front side of the fixing member 2 and the second stopper member 8 located at the rear side of the fixing member 2 as an example, the edge of the second opening 20b is formed with a flange structure 20c close to the first stopper member 7, i.e., the edge of the second opening 20b is formed with a forward flange structure 20 c.

Such an arrangement not only facilitates the mounting and dismounting of the bearing chamber structure 6 and the second limiting member 8, but also enables the axial limiting of the bearing chamber structure 6 and the second limiting member 8.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 5 and 8, the number of the bearings 5 is two, and a partition structure 60c that partitions the two bearings 5 is provided in the bearing chamber structure 6. After the bearings 5 are placed in the bearing chamber structure 6, the bearings 5 are axially preloaded, so that the bearings 5 can be placed more firmly in the bearing chamber structure 6, taking the situation shown in fig. 5 as an example, two bearings 5 are arranged one behind the other on the cylindrical shaft 4, and axial preloading is applied to the bearings 5, that is, a certain axially rearward force is applied to the bearings 5 arranged in front, and a certain axially forward force is applied to the bearings 5 arranged behind. In a more preferred embodiment, the separation structure 60c is in contact with the outer ring of the bearing 5 but not in contact with the inner ring of the bearing 5, so that when the inner rings of the two bearings 5 rotate along with the cylindrical shaft 4, no mutual friction occurs between the two bearings 5, thereby avoiding increasing the resistance to the rotation of the shaft. Of course, the partition structure 60c may be provided in contact with both the outer ring of the bearing 5 and the inner ring of the bearing 5, and the lubricating oil may be applied between the partition structure 60c and the inner ring of the bearing 5.

The person skilled in the art can flexibly set the number of bearings 5 and the respective type of bearings 5 in practical applications, for example: when the number of the bearings 5 is one, angular contact ball bearings 5 and tapered roller bearings 5 may be adopted, and when the number of the bearings 5 is two, deep groove ball bearings 5 may be adopted, and such adjustment and change of the number of the bearings 5 and the corresponding type of the bearings 5 do not limit the present invention, and should be limited within the scope of the present invention.

Preferably, the cartridge shaft 4 is clearance fitted with the bearing 5. This enables the spool 4 to have a certain play margin with respect to the bearing 5, and facilitates the mounting of the bearing 5 on the spool 4.

Taking the situation shown in fig. 5 as an example, two bearings 5 are arranged in tandem on the drum shaft 4, the first stopping structure 40a abuts against the side of the bearing 5 close to the drum, that is, the first stopping structure 40a abuts against the side of the bearing 5 closest to the drum, that is, the first stopping structure 40a abuts against the side of the bearing 5 close to the drum arranged in front, and the second stopping structure 40b abuts against the side of the bearing 5 far away from the drum, that is, the second stopping structure 40b abuts against the side of the bearing 5 farthest away from the drum, that is, the second stopping structure 40b abuts against the side of the bearing 5 far away from the drum arranged behind. In the above description, the first stopping structure 40a and the second stopping structure 40b may adopt a stopping ring, a stopping plate, a stopping block, etc., and those skilled in the art may flexibly set the specific structures of the first stopping structure 40a and the second stopping structure 40b in practical application, and such adjustment and change of the specific structures of the first stopping structure 40a and the second stopping structure 40b do not limit the present invention, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

That is, the protection member 30b can prevent the reinforcement member 30a from being exposed, thereby preventing the laundry in the drum from being entangled with the reinforcement member 30a when repeatedly lifted and lowered, so that the connection between the drum shaft 4 and the rear flange 3 is reliable, and the possibility of water vapor entering the accommodating space can be greatly reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of the reinforcement member 30a being corroded by the water vapor. In a possible case, the guard member 30b is connected to the inner end surface of the shaft 4 by a screw (the screw passes through the guard member 30b and is inserted into the inner end surface of the shaft 4), tightening the screw can make the guard member 30b tightly abut against the rear flange 3, and the inventors have repeatedly conducted experiments, and the guard member 30b tightly abutting against the rear flange 3 can greatly reduce the possibility that the reinforcing member 30a is corroded by water vapor. Of course, the protective member 30b may be tightly abutted against the rear flange 3 by other means to reduce the possibility of the reinforcing member 30a being eroded by water vapor, such as: the guard member 30b is connected to the inner end surface of the drum shaft 4, and a member capable of pressing the guard member 30b is provided in the drum so that the guard member 30b is tightly abutted against the rear flange 3.
