[0002] In modern life, a comfortable bathroom experience is of paramount importance. Currently, traditional gas water heaters primarily provide domestic hot water for daily washing and bathing. When it comes to bathroom heating, other heating equipment, such as bathroom heaters or fan heaters, usually needs to be installed separately. These devices suffer from uneven heating, high energy consumption, and potential eye discomfort from bright light. Alternatively, a separate gas water heater may be required to provide heating for the bathroom. Installing gas water heaters and other independent heating equipment separately is costly and takes up more installation space.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a heating device to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0045] The following embodiments illustrate the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Modifications to the specific embodiments of the present invention or equivalent substitutions for some technical features, without departing from the spirit of the present invention, should all be covered within the scope of the technical solutions claimed in the present invention.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1-4The present invention provides a heating device, including a gas water heater 1, a hot water heat dissipation component 3, and a water pipe assembly 2. The hot water heat dissipation component 3 is installed in a bathroom and includes a housing 31 and a hot water component 32 and a heating component 34 installed on the housing 31. The water pipe assembly 2 includes a hot water pipe 21, a cold water pipe 22, and a return water pipe 23. The first end of the hot water pipe 21 is connected to the hot water outlet of the gas water heater 1, and the second end of the hot water pipe 21 is connected to the hot water assembly 32 and the heating assembly 34 to provide hot water to the hot water assembly 32 and the heating assembly 34. The first end of the cold water pipe 22 is connected to the water supply pipe outside the heating equipment, and the second end of the cold water pipe 22 is connected to the hot water assembly 32 and the gas water heater 1 to provide cold water to the hot water assembly 32 and the gas water heater 1. The first end of the return water pipe 23 is connected to the return water inlet of the gas water heater 1, and the second end of the return water pipe 23 is connected to the heating assembly 34 to provide circulating hot water to the heating assembly 34. That is, when the hot water generated by the gas water heater 1 enters the heating assembly 34 for heat dissipation and cooling, the cooled water enters the gas water heater 1 again through the return water pipe 23 for heating, thereby realizing the continuous operation of the heating assembly 34.

[0047] The heating device provided by the present invention integrates the hot water component 32 and the heating component 34 in the bathroom, so that the gas water heater 1 can simultaneously provide hot water for bathing and hot water for heating in the bathroom, with a simple and compact structure.

[0048] Optionally, the hot water heating assembly 3 also includes a controller 33, which is mounted on the housing. The hot water assembly 32, the heating assembly 34, and the gas water heater 1 are all communicatively connected to the controller 33. By also placing the controller 33 in the bathroom, it is convenient for the user to control the heating equipment.

[0049] Optionally, the outer casing 31 has a receiving cavity 310, and the side wall of the outer casing 31 has an air inlet 3101 and an air outlet 3102 communicating with the receiving cavity 310. The heating component 34 includes a heat dissipation fin structure 341, a fan 342, an air inlet channel 301, an air outlet channel 302, a ventilation duct 343, a first pipe 345, and a second pipe 346. The heat dissipation fin structure 341 is disposed within the receiving cavity 310. The fan 342 is disposed within the receiving cavity 310. The air inlet channel 301 is located within the receiving cavity 310 and is disposed between the air inlet of the fan 342 and the air inlet 3101. The air outlet channel 302 is located within the receiving cavity 310 and is disposed between the heat dissipation fin structure 341 and the air outlet 3102. The ventilation duct 343 is located within the receiving cavity 310 and is disposed between the air outlet of the fan 342 and the heat dissipation fin structure 341. The first pipe 345 is disposed within the accommodating cavity 310. The first end of the first pipe 345 is connected to the second end of the hot water pipe 21, and the second end is connected to the water inlet of the heat dissipation fin structure 341. The second pipe 346 is disposed within the accommodating cavity 310. The first end of the second pipe 346 is connected to the water inlet of the heat dissipation fin structure 341, and the second end is connected to the second end of the return water pipe 23. Specifically, the gas water heater 1 delivers hot water to the first pipe 345 via the hot water pipe 21, allowing the hot water to enter the heat dissipation fin structure 341 through the first pipe 345. The fan 342 operates, drawing in cold air from the bathroom through the air inlet 3101 and air inlet channel 301 into the ventilation duct 343, and then blowing it out to the heat dissipation fin structure 341. The hot air from the heat dissipation fin structure 341 is then blown out of the bathroom through the air outlet channel 302 and air outlet 3102, thereby heating the air in the bathroom and increasing the bathroom temperature. The hot water passing through the heat dissipation fin structure 341 cools down due to heat dissipation. The cooled water then flows through the second pipe 346 to the return pipe 23, and then flows into the gas water heater 1 for reheating.

[0050] Optionally, air inlets 3101 and air outlets 3102 are provided on both the left and right sides of the outer casing 31. This increases the air intake and exhaust volume, and also improves the uniformity of heating the air in the bathroom.

[0051] Optionally, the heating component 34 also includes a first temperature sensor and a water pump 347. The first temperature sensor is installed on the heat dissipation fin structure 341 and is communicatively connected to the controller 33. The first temperature sensor is used to detect the water temperature value at the heat dissipation fin structure 341 and send the water temperature value to the controller 33. When the water temperature value is lower than the preset temperature, the controller 33 controls the water pump 347 to run so that the water in the heat dissipation fin structure 341 can be pumped to the gas water heater 1 for reheating, thereby ensuring the heating effect.

[0052] Optionally, the heating component 34 also includes a second temperature sensor 344, which is installed at the air inlet duct 301 and communicates with the controller 33. The second temperature sensor 344 is used to detect the temperature in the bathroom and send the temperature value to the controller 33. When the temperature in the bathroom is lower than the preset value, the controller 33 controls the heating component 34 to operate. When the temperature in the bathroom is higher than the preset value, the controller 33 controls the heating component 34 to stop operating, so that the temperature in the bathroom is relatively constant and the heating component will not be triggered when the room temperature is not low.

[0053] Optionally, within a preset time before the shower time, the gas water heater 1 supplies hot water to the heating component 34 through the hot water pipe 21. The heating component 34 operates until the temperature in the bathroom exceeds the preset value. This preheats the bathroom and effectively shortens the distance of the cold water section within the hot water component 32, enabling rapid delivery of hot water for showering.

[0054] Optionally, the hot water assembly 32 includes a water outlet structure, a third pipe 324, and a water distribution valve 325. The water outlet structure is mounted on the housing 31. The third pipe 324 is installed in the receiving cavity 310 within the housing 31. The first end of the third pipe 324 is connected to the second end of the hot water pipe 21 and the second end of the cold water pipe 22, and the second end of the third pipe 324 is connected to the water outlet structure. The water distribution valve 325 is installed between the hot water pipe 21 and the third pipe 324, the first pipe 345, and the cold water pipe 22, and is used to control the amount of hot water entering the third pipe 324 and the first pipe 345 from the hot water pipe 21 and the cold water pipe 22. When the heating assembly is not in operation, the water distribution valve 325 can directly close the passage between the hot water pipe 21 and the first pipe 345. When the hot water assembly 32 is not in operation, the water distribution valve 325 can directly close the passage between the hot water pipe 21 and the third pipe 324 and the cold water pipe 22.

[0055] Optionally, a third temperature sensor is installed inside the water distribution valve 325, which is communicatively connected to the controller 33. The third temperature sensor is used to detect the water temperature inside the water distribution valve 325 and send the water temperature value to the controller 33. The controller 33 controls the opening degree of the valve plate of the water distribution valve 325 according to the water temperature value. This ensures that the hot water temperature of the hot water assembly 32 reaches the user's set value.

[0056] Optionally, the water outlet structure includes an overhead shower head 321, a movable shower head 322, and a lower water outlet 323. The overhead shower head 321 is installed at the upper end of the housing 31 and connected to the second end of the third pipe 324. The movable shower head 322 is installed on the left or right side of the housing 31 and connected to the second end of the third pipe 324. The lower water outlet 323 is located at the lower part of the housing 31 and connected to the second end of the third pipe 324. By providing the overhead shower head 321, the movable shower head 322, and the lower water outlet 323, different bathing needs of users can be met.

[0057] Optionally, the bottom of the outer casing 31 is provided with a first water inlet 351, a second water inlet 352 and a third water inlet 353. The second end of the hot water pipe 21 is connected to the third pipe 324 and the first pipe 345 through the first water inlet 351. The second end of the cold water pipe 22 is connected to the third pipe 324 through the second water inlet 352. The second end of the return water pipe 23 is connected to the second pipe 346 through the third water inlet 353.

[0058] Optionally, the controller 33 includes a control panel 332, a display panel 332, and a control knob 331. Both the display panel 332 and the control knob 331 are communicatively connected to the control panel 332. The front side of the housing 31 has a first mounting port and a second mounting port. The display panel 332 is located at the first mounting port, and the control knob 331 is located at the second mounting port. The control panel 332 is housed within the receiving cavity 310 of the housing 31. Users can control the operation of the heating component 34 and the hot water component 32 via the control knob 331. Simultaneously, they can obtain bathroom room temperature and hot water temperature information through the display panel 332.

[0059] Optionally, when the heating component 34 and the hot water component 32 are operating simultaneously, the gas water heater 1 prioritizes supplying hot water to the hot water component 32 via the hot water pipe 21. Specifically, when the hot water demand of the hot water component 32 is large, a control valve is used to control more hot water to enter the hot water component 32 to ensure the user's bathing needs are met.

[0060] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
