Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aromatherapy technology, specifically relating to an electrically controllable heating aroma-generating carrier assembly and an aromatherapy machine. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, the number of families owning private cars is constantly increasing. In order to improve the air environment inside private cars and indoors, people usually place solid air fresheners, spray perfumes, or place aromatherapy essential oils in the car or indoors to make the car smell fragrant, eliminate the fatigue of drivers and passengers, enliven the atmosphere inside the car, and enhance the driving pleasure.

[0003] However, existing car air freshener products mainly fall into the following categories: first, air vent diffusers that clip onto the vents; second, diffuser holders that stick to the dashboard; and third, hanging diffusers that suspend from the rearview mirror. These three types of air fresheners primarily rely on natural evaporation to diffuse fragrance. At most, when the car's air conditioning is on, the airflow from the diffuser combined with the airflow from the vent enhances the fragrance diffusion. However, car air conditioning doesn't need to be on 365 days a year; it's generally only used during hot summer weather. Since the air freshener is turned on, it relies on natural evaporation to diffuse the fragrance for a longer period of time. This natural evaporation method has the problems of low fragrance release efficiency and poor fragrance diffusion effect, resulting in uneven fragrance concentration throughout the car's interior space (especially in corners) and slow coverage. In addition, in the later stages of use, residual fragrance often does not evaporate easily, causing the fragrance to fade or become completely ineffective. This is especially true when the fragrance product uses a liquid-absorbing fragrance stick for diffusion, which makes it easier for fragrance to remain. The residual fragrance in the fragrance stick is not fully utilized, resulting in waste and low utilization rate of the fragrance liquid. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the existing technical defects and provide an electrically controllable heating fragrance carrier assembly and aroma diffuser. By heating the fragrance diffuser with a heating element set in the can, the fragrance release efficiency and fragrance diffusion effect are improved, and the problem of residual fragrance in the fragrance diffuser that is not easy to volatilize is avoided in the later stage.

[0005] In the first aspect, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an electrically controllable heating fragrance carrier assembly, including a can and a fragrance dispersing component disposed in the can for dispersing fragrance. The can is also provided with a heating element for heating the fragrance dispersing component, and at least one fragrance dispersing window is provided through the side of the can to expose the internal fragrance dispersing component.

[0006] Furthermore, the heating element includes two heating plates extending along the axial or length direction of the fragrance diffuser, with the two heating plates respectively disposed on both sides of the fragrance diffuser and abutting against the fragrance diffuser.

[0007] Furthermore, one end of each of the two heating elements is connected and conductive via a connector. A circuit board is provided at the end of the tank away from the connector, and each of the two heating elements at the end away from the connector is provided with a connection pin that is electrically connected to the circuit board.

[0008] Furthermore, the side of the can body is provided with two symmetrically arranged fragrance dispersing windows, and the two fragrance dispersing windows are staggered with the two heating plates.

[0009] Furthermore, the can body includes a shell with an opening at one end for accommodating the fragrance diffuser and a cover that closes to the opening of the shell. The fragrance diffuser window is located on both sides of the shell, and the circuit board is located at the end of the shell away from the cover.

[0010] Furthermore, a magnetic ring is provided at one end of the outer casing away from the cover, surrounding the circuit board.

[0011] Furthermore, the cover includes an inner cover that is inserted into and engaged with the outer shell, and an outer cover that is engaged and fitted around the inner cover. A decorative ring is provided between the inner cover and the outer shell, and a counterweight is provided on the inner end of the inner cover.

[0012] Furthermore, the heating element is a flexible heating film.

[0013] Furthermore, the circuit board is equipped with a temperature sensor that protrudes into the tank.

[0014] Secondly, this utility model also provides an aromatherapy diffuser, including a main unit having at least one receiving slot, and at least one fragrance carrier assembly placed one-to-one in the receiving slot and as described in any one of the first aspects.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In this invention, a heating element installed inside the can heats the fragrance diffuser, thereby accelerating the movement of fragrance molecules on the diffuser, improving fragrance release efficiency and diffusion effect, achieving efficient fragrance diffusion and rapid and uniform spread, and achieving uniform coverage of the entire vehicle in a short time. This solves the problems of slow fragrance coverage and uneven concentration in corners caused by traditional natural evaporation methods. It is especially suitable for use in low-temperature environments or for fragrances with high viscosity, and avoids the problem of residual fragrance in the diffuser that is not easy to evaporate, thus improving the utilization rate of the fragrance and reducing waste.

[0017] Secondly, the heating element uses a flexible electric heating film, which can better fit the surface of the fragrance diffuser, forming a surface contact structure between them to achieve uniform heating and large-area uniform evaporation, thus improving the fragrance diffusion effect.

[0018] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and will become apparent from the description or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To better understand the technical content of this utility model, the following will further introduce and explain this utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that if there are descriptions such as "first" and "second" in the text, they are used to distinguish different components, etc., and do not represent the order of priority, nor do they limit "first" and "second" to be different types.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the embodiment, the electrically controllable heated fragrance carrier assembly includes a canister 1 and a fragrance diffuser 2 disposed within the canister 1 for dispersing fragrance. The canister 1 also has a heating element for heating the fragrance diffuser 2. At least one fragrance window 3 is provided through the side of the canister 1 to expose the internal fragrance diffuser 2, facilitating airflow inside and outside the canister. In the above-mentioned case, by heating the fragrance diffuser with the heating element disposed within the canister, the movement of fragrance molecules on the fragrance diffuser is accelerated by heating, thereby improving the fragrance release efficiency and fragrance dispersion effect, achieving the purpose of efficient fragrance diffusion and rapid and uniform diffusion, achieving uniform coverage of the entire vehicle in a short time, solving the problems of slow fragrance coverage and uneven concentration in corners in traditional natural evaporation methods, especially suitable for fragrance dispersion in low-temperature environments or with high-viscosity fragrances, and avoiding the problem of residual fragrance in the fragrance diffuser that is not easy to evaporate in the later stage, thus improving the utilization rate of the fragrance and reducing waste.

[0034] In one embodiment, the fragrance emitter is preferably a fragrance stick that absorbs fragrance essential oil or fragrance liquid. When the fragrance emitter is heated by a heating element, the fragrance essential oil or fragrance liquid absorbed in the fragrance emitter is released outward more quickly, so that a high fragrance diffusion effect can be achieved with a low concentration of fragrance molecules. Heating allows trace amounts of fragrance molecules to reach the ideal fragrance intensity, prolongs the duration of a single use, and reduces the replacement frequency when the fragrance emitter assembly is used in an external fragrance diffuser.

[0035] Optionally, the fragrance stick is preferably made of cotton or a stick made of modified PP.

[0036] Of course, the fragrance is a solid perfume paste, and its volatilization is accelerated by directly heating the perfume paste.

[0037] In one embodiment, the heating element includes two heating plates 4 extending along the axial or length direction of the fragrance diffuser 2. The two heating plates 4 are respectively disposed on both sides of the fragrance diffuser 2 and abut against the fragrance diffuser 2. One end of the two heating plates 4 is connected and conductive through a connector 41. The connector 41 is located on one end face of the fragrance diffuser. That is, the heating element forms a semi-enclosed structure for the fragrance diffuser, and the heating plates and the fragrance diffuser form a surface contact, which can better heat the fragrance diffuser evenly and improve the fragrance diffusion effect.

[0038] In one embodiment, a circuit board 5 is provided at the end of the tank body 1 away from the connector 41, and each of the two heating elements 4 is provided with a connection pin 42 that is electrically connected to the circuit board 5 at the end away from the connector 41. Specifically, the connection pins 42 on the two heating elements 4 are respectively connected to the positive and negative terminals on the circuit board, thereby forming a series electrical conduction structure between the two heating elements.

[0039] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the circuit board 5 is provided with at least two conductive contacts 51, which serve as positive and negative contacts respectively, so that when the fragrance carrier assembly is used on the matching aroma diffuser, the conductive contacts are used to achieve electrical connection with the main unit of the external aroma diffuser.

[0040] In one embodiment, the side of the can 1 is provided with two symmetrically arranged fragrance windows 3, and the two fragrance windows 3 and the two heating plates 4 are staggered to avoid mutual interference; preferably, the two fragrance windows and the two heating plates are arranged in a cross shape.

[0041] In one embodiment, the can body 1 includes a shell 11 with an opening at one end for accommodating the fragrance diffuser 2 and a cover 10 that covers the opening of the shell 11. A heating element is also disposed inside the shell 11. Fragrance diffuser windows 3 are disposed on both sides of the shell 11. A circuit board 5 is disposed at one end of the shell 11 away from the cover.

[0042] In one embodiment, a magnetic ring 12 is provided at one end of the outer casing 11 away from the cover, surrounding the circuit board 5. The magnetic ring 12 is preferably an iron ring. When the fragrance carrier assembly is used on the matching aroma diffuser, the magnetic ring 12 is used to achieve magnetic connection with the main unit of the external aroma diffuser. This serves two purposes: first, to improve the stability of use after assembly, and second, to ensure reliable electrical connection between the circuit board and the main unit.

[0043] In one embodiment, the cover 10 includes an inner cover 13, one end of which is inserted into and engaged with the outer shell 11, and an outer cover 14, which is engaged and fitted around the inner cover 13. A decorative ring 15 is provided between the inner cover 13 and the outer shell 11. Preferably, the outer diameters of the decorative ring 15 and the outer cover 14 are the same, and the outer diameters of the decorative ring 15 and the outer cover 14 are larger than the maximum outer diameter of the outer shell 11. Thus, when the fragrance carrier assembly is installed on the main unit of the aroma diffuser, the outer shell is inserted into the main unit, while the decorative ring 15 and the outer cover 14 are exposed, making it convenient to insert and remove the fragrance carrier assembly.

[0044] In one embodiment, a counterweight 16 is provided on the inner end of the inner cover 13 to improve the gravity balance between the front and rear ends of the fragrance carrier assembly and avoid the problem of one end being too light and the other end being too heavy.

[0045] In one embodiment, the heating element 4 is a flexible heating film, which can better fit the surface of the fragrance diffuser to adapt to different curved surfaces or other shapes; of course, the two sides of the fragrance diffuser 2 can also be designed as planes 21 so that the heating element and the fragrance diffuser form a planar contact.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] like Figure 8 As shown, the fragrance carrier assembly in this embodiment, based on the structure described in Embodiment 1, has a temperature sensor 52 protruding into the can body on the circuit board 5. The temperature sensor 52 monitors the ambient temperature inside the can body in real time, and automatically adjusts the working state of the heating element according to the temperature change (i.e., adjusts the heating power of the heating element. At this time, the temperature and heating power are positively correlated. When the temperature exceeds the set threshold, the heating power is reduced or the operation is stopped. When it is below the threshold, the heating power is increased. This adjustment method is a conventional technical means and will not be described in detail here), thereby optimizing the heating effect and improving the energy efficiency ratio of the equipment.

[0048] In another embodiment, when the aroma diffuser using the fragrance carrier assembly is used in conjunction with a vehicle air conditioner, the air conditioner air enters the aroma diffuser and flows through the fragrance carrier assembly, thereby carrying the fragrance outward. Since the air conditioner air can accelerate the diffusion of fragrance and improve the fragrance diffusion effect, the heating power can be reduced when the vehicle air conditioner is turned on, and the ideal fragrance intensity and fragrance diffusion effect can still be achieved.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown in this embodiment, an aroma diffuser includes a main unit 100 having at least one receiving slot 101, and at least one fragrance carrier assembly placed one-to-one in the receiving slot 101 as described in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2. The outer cover of the fragrance carrier assembly is exposed, and at least two conductive spring pins 102 are provided on the inner end of the receiving slot 101, which abut against the conductive contacts 51 on the outer side of the circuit board 5. The inner end of the receiving slot 101 is provided with a magnet 103 that is attracted and fixed to the magnetic ring 12.

[0051] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the embodiments of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for helping to understand the principles of the embodiments of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the embodiments of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
