Device for drying shoes, gloves or garments
The invention relates to a device for drying shoes, gloves or garments comprising a fan which produces an airflow and which is accommodated in a housing. The housing comprises two openings that are connected to two tube sockets which are arranged opposite one another and which are fastened to said housing. The tube sockets are connected to tubes for guiding the airflow. To this end, the tube sockets are angular and one end of each tube socket is rotatably connected to the housing while forming a swivel joint.
1. Apparatus for drying shoes, gloves or articles of clothing with an air stream-generating fan which is contained in a housing, wherein the housing comprises at least one air outlet opening which is connected to two oppositely mounted pipe sockets attached to the housing and wherein the pipe sockets are connected to pipes for further conduction of the air stream, and wherein further the pipe sockets are angled and one end of each pipe socket is rotatably connected to the housing, forming a pivot joint, wherein the end of each pipe socket engages in an opening, wherein a circumferential wall of the opening and the end of the pipe socket form with each other a form-locking connection.
2. Apparatus for drying shoes, gloves or articles of clothing with an air stream-generating fan which is contained in a housing, wherein the housing comprises at least one air outlet opening which is connected to two oppositely mounted pipe sockets attached to the housing and wherein the pipe sockets are connected to pipes for further conduction of the air stream, and wherein further the pipe sockets are angled and one end of each pipe socket is rotatably connected to the housing, forming a pivot joint, wherein a flange portion proximate the end of each pipe socket engages in an opening, wherein a circumferential wall of the opening and the flange portion proximate the end of the pipe socket form with each other a form-locking connection.
3. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the pipes connected to the pipe sockets each comprise at least two pipe elements fitted one inside the other, which are telescopically extendable.
4. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the end of each angled pipe socket which is held in the opening comprises outwardly opening slots.
5. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein in the housing between the pipe sockets is arranged an air stream divider.
6. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein on the mutually facing inner and outer surfaces of the pipe elements are formed latch elements for at least one form-locking engagement in at least one predetermined latch position.
7. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein at the end of each pipe facing away from the pipe sockets is arranged as an air outlet nozzle with at least one nozzle opening which is designed as a pipe attachment angled perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the pipe, wherein the nozzle opening is arranged at the end of the pipe attachment.
8. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the air outlet nozzles are rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the pipes.
9. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the contour of the nozzle opening seen in the axial section of the pipe attachment is oblique.
10. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a circumferential wall of the pipe attachment forming the air outlet nozzle is partially drawn radially inwards in the region of the nozzle opening, such that the air outlet nozzle in the axial section of the pipe attachment is nose-shaped or beak-shaped.
11. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein in a circumferential wall of the respective air outlet nozzle includes a plurality of nozzle openings.
12. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a stand element is formed on the housing.
13. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the contour of the nozzle opening seen in the axial section of the pipe attachment is curved.
14. Apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein a stand element is releasably attached to the housing.
15. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein at the end of each pipe facing away from the pipe sockets is arranged an air outlet nozzle with at least one nozzle opening which is designed as a pipe attachment angled obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the pipe, wherein the nozzle opening is arranged at the end of the pipe attachment.
16. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the flange portion extends continuously about the circumference of the end of the pipe socket.
17. Apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the flange portion extends intermittently about the circumference of the end of the pipe socket.
