Abstract
A towel drying assembly for drying a wet towel or dish rag includes a housing that has a convex top thereby facilitating a towel to be draped over the housing. The housing has a plurality of apertures each extending into an interior of the housing. The plurality of apertures passes air therethrough thereby facilitating the towel to be in thermal communication with the interior of the housing when the towel is draped over the housing. A heating element is positioned within the housing such that the heating element is in thermal communication with the interior of the housing. The heating element heats the interior of the housing when the heating element is turned on. In this way the plurality of apertures can communicate heated air to the towel for drying the towel when the towel is draped over the housing.
Claims9
A towel drying assembly being configured to have a wet towel placed thereon for drying the wet towel, said assembly comprising:
- a housing having a convex top wherein said housing is configured to have a towel draped over said housing, said housing having a plurality of apertures each extending into an interior of said housing wherein said plurality of apertures is configured to pass air therethrough thereby facilitating the towel to be in thermal communication with said interior of said housing when the towel is draped over said housing;
- and
- a heating element being positioned within said housing such that said heating element is in thermal communication with said interior of said housing, said heating element heating said interior of said housing when said heating element is turned on wherein said plurality of apertures is configured to communicate heated air to the towel for drying the towel when the towel is draped over said housing.
A towel drying assembly being configured to have a wet towel placed thereon for drying the wet towel, said assembly comprising:
- a housing having a convex top wherein said housing is configured to have a towel draped over said housing, said housing having a front side, a back side, a top side and a bottom side, said bottom side resting upon a support surface, said top side being convexly arcuate between said front and back sides, said housing having a plurality of apertures each extending into an interior of said housing wherein said plurality of apertures is configured to pass air therethrough thereby facilitating the towel to be in thermal communication with said interior of said housing when the towel is draped over said housing, said apertures being spaced apart from each other and being distributed on said front side, said back side and said top side;
- a control circuit being positioned within said housing, said control circuit receiving an on input and an off input;
- a heating element being positioned within said housing such that said heating element is in thermal communication with said interior of said housing, said heating element heating said interior of said housing when said heating element is turned on wherein said plurality of apertures is configured to communicate heated air to the towel for drying the towel when the towel is draped over said housing, said heating element being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said heating element being turned on when said control circuit receives said on input, said heating element being turned off when said control circuit receives said off input;
- a sensor being coupled to said housing wherein said sensor is configured to sense when the towel is positioned on said housing, said control circuit receiving said on input when said sensor senses the towel, said control circuit receiving said off input when said sensor does not sense the towel;
- and
- a power cord being coupled to and extending outwardly from said housing, said power cord being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said power cord having a distal end with respect to said housing, said distal end having a male plug being electrically coupled thereto wherein said male plug is configured to be electrically coupled to a power source comprising a female electrical outlet.
