[0002] As my country's consumption level improves, consumers' pursuit of quality of life is also improving, and they are paying more and more attention to health products. As a bathroom appliance product that cleans towels and improves consumers' health, electric towel racks have gradually become an emerging product category in recent years.

[0003] In daily life, wet towels and bath towels after use are prone to bacterial growth, which is not good for human health. If wet towels cannot be dried in time in winter, users will feel very cold and uncomfortable during use. Electric towel racks achieve the effect of drying and heating towels by energizing the internal electric heating components and dissipating the heat through the heat pipe. Electric towel racks are generally installed in humid bathrooms, so the product is easily damaged by moisture on the electronic control board.

[0004] Therefore, it is very urgent to design an electric towel rack with good waterproof performance. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an electric heated towel rack with good waterproof performance, which achieves the purpose of preventing the electric control panel from getting wet to the greatest extent by arranging a plurality of water retaining plates in the control box to adjust the path of water droplets.

[0006] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: an electric heated towel rack with good waterproof performance, comprising: two vertical tubes, which are vertically arranged in parallel; a plurality of horizontal tubes, which are inserted and fixed between the two vertical tubes; a heating wire, which penetrates each of the vertical tubes and each of the horizontal tubes; a control component, which is installed and fixed on the vertical tube, the control component has a control box and an electric control board accommodated in the control box, the electric control board is electrically connected to the heating wire, the control box has a box body and a bottom plate, the box body has a first side wall, the first side wall has a heat dissipation hole running through its surface, the first side wall extends toward the control box on both sides of the heat dissipation hole to form a first water baffle and a second water baffle, the bottom plate extends toward the control box to form a fence, the fence does not contact the first side wall, the first water baffle is located inside the fence, the second water baffle is located outside the fence, and a drainage hole is formed between the first water baffle and the fence and through the bottom plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the second water baffle is located at a turning point of the first side wall, and the drainage hole is adjacent to a corner of the bottom plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the first water retaining plate is perpendicular to the first side wall, and the included angle between the second water retaining plate and the first side wall is an acute angle.

[0009] Furthermore, the fence has a third water baffle plate parallel to the first side wall, and a fourth water baffle plate and a fifth water baffle plate extending from opposite sides of the third water baffle plate toward the first side wall, and the fourth water baffle plate and the fifth water baffle plate are parallel to each other.

[0010] Further, the fourth water baffle plate is close to the first water baffle plate, the fifth water baffle plate is close to the second water baffle plate, and the fifth water baffle plate is flush with the edge of the drainage hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the top angles of the fourth water baffle plate and the fifth water baffle plate are arc-shaped.

[0012] Furthermore, at least one reinforcing rib is provided on the third water retaining plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the control box is symmetrically arranged about its horizontal center line, and the bottom plate extends toward the inside of the control box to form a sixth water baffle, and the sixth water baffle connects the upper and lower fences.

[0014] Furthermore, the sixth water baffle is parallel to the first side wall.

[0015] Furthermore, the height of the sixth water baffle is lower than the height of the fence.

[0027] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention discloses an electric heated towel rack with good waterproof performance, including two vertical pipes 10, eight horizontal pipes 11 fixed between the two vertical pipes 10, three curved pipes 12, a storage rack 13, a heating wire 3 passing through the vertical pipes 10, the horizontal pipes 11 and the curved pipes 12, and a control component 8 located on one side of the vertical pipe 10.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the vertical tube 10 is a square tube, the horizontal tube 11 and the curved tube 12 are round tubes, which is convenient for hanging towels. In other embodiments, the shapes of the vertical tube 10, the horizontal tube 11 and the curved tube 12 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, which is not limited here. In addition, the heating wire 3 is a carbon fiber heating wire 3, so that the heating and drying performance of the electric towel rack is better, and the horizontal tube 11 is heated more evenly.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the two vertical tubes 10 are arranged vertically and in parallel, and their structures and sizes are consistent. A line opening 101 is provided at the top of each vertical tube 10. A first sealing plate 6 and a second sealing plate 7 respectively close the line openings 101 at the tops of the two vertical tubes 10. The first sealing plate 6 has a notch 61 through its plate surface, and a power line 2 passes through the notch 61 to enter the vertical tube 10. A first cover plate 4 and a second cover plate 5 respectively cover the two vertical tubes 10, and the first cover plate 4 has an opening 41 through its surface. The control assembly 8 is installed on the first cover plate 4 and covers the opening 41. In addition, the first cover plate 4 and the first sealing plate 6 are installed on the same vertical tube 10, so that the power line 2 passes through the line opening 101 and is connected to the control assembly 8 through the opening 41, so that it supplies power to the control assembly 8.

[0031] Since the vertical pipes 10 have the same structure and size and are arranged in parallel, the electric towel rack can be connected to the left and right sides according to actual use and installation requirements. When the electric towel rack is connected to the left vertical pipe 10, the first cover plate 4 is covered on the left vertical pipe 10, and the first sealing plate 6 covers the line opening 101 of the left vertical pipe 10. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the heating wire 3 starts to be threaded from the wire opening 101 of the vertical pipe 10 on the left side, and passes through the two horizontal bars, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, the bottom horizontal pipe 11, the storage rack 13, the top horizontal pipe 11, and finally returns to the wire opening 101 of the vertical pipe 10 on the left side to connect with the control component 8.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the electric towel rack is connected to the right vertical pipe 10, the first cover plate 4 is covered on the right vertical pipe 10, and the first sealing plate 6 covers the wire opening 101 of the right vertical pipe 10. As shown in the figure, the heating wire 3 starts to be threaded from the wire opening 101 of the right vertical pipe 10, and passes through the two horizontal pipes 11, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, one curved pipe 12, two horizontal pipes 11, the bottom horizontal pipe 11, the storage rack 13, the top horizontal pipe 11, and finally returns to the wire opening 101 of the right vertical pipe 10 to connect the control component 8.

[0033] In summary, by using the first cover plate 4 and the first sealing plate 6 to cover the vertical pipe 10 on the left or the vertical pipe 10 on the right as required, the heating wire 3 can be adapted to enter and exit the vertical pipe 10 on the left or the vertical pipe 10 on the right, so that the electric towel rack can be wired out on the left or the right as required, thereby making the electric towel rack adaptable to more diverse bathroom installation environments.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, both ends of the three curved pipes 12 are fixed to the front surfaces of the two vertical pipes 10, and the eight horizontal pipes 11 are fixed to the opposite sides of the two vertical pipes 10, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the entire electric heated towel rack. Furthermore, there are two horizontal pipes 11 between the two curved pipes 12, thereby ensuring the practical functionality of the electric heated towel rack.

[0035] like Figures 5 to 9 As shown, the control assembly 8 comprises a control box 81 and an electric control board 82 accommodated in the control box 81. The electric control board 82 connects the power line 2 and the heating line 3, thereby controlling the heating time, temperature and other working parameters of the heating line 3. The control box 81 comprises a first side wall 8111 and a second side wall 8112 parallel to the board surface of the electric control board 82. The first side wall 8111 is provided with two groups of heat dissipation holes 800 near its upper edge and lower edge respectively. The two groups of heat dissipation holes 800 are symmetrical with respect to the horizontal center line of the first side wall 8111, and each group of heat dissipation holes 800 is arranged in a matrix of four by three. Since the first side wall 8111 is parallel to the board surface of the electric control board 82, the heat dissipation holes 800 are directly opposite to the electric control board 82, so that the heat generated by the electric control board 82 during operation is discharged from the control box 81 through the heat dissipation holes 800 as soon as possible, thereby preventing the electric control board 82 from being overheated and damaged. Furthermore, the heat dissipation holes 800 are located on the first side wall 8111 facing the cross bar, and all of the heat dissipation holes 800 are located on one side of the vertical center line of the first side wall 8111 and close to the vertical pipe 10 .

[0036] Preferably, the second side wall 8112 is provided with a control button, and the distance between the electric control board 82 and the first side wall 8111 is greater than the distance between the electric control board 82 and the second side wall 8112, so that the heat generated by the electric control board 82 has more space to circulate; in addition, the height of the control assembly 8 corresponds to the two lowest transverse pipes 11, ensuring that the control assembly 8 is located as high as possible to achieve better heat dissipation effect. In this embodiment, a wifi bracket 8123 is also provided in the control box 81, and a wifi module 83 is installed on the wifi bracket 8123, so that the operator can remotely and intelligently control the electric towel rack.

[0037] Since electric towel racks are generally used in humid environments such as bathrooms, water vapor can easily enter the control box 81 through the heat dissipation holes 800, causing the electric control board 82 to be damaged by moisture. Therefore, the control box 81 must have good waterproof performance. Specifically, the control box 81 has a box body 811 and a bottom plate 812, the first side wall 8111 extends toward the control box 81 on both sides of the two groups of heat dissipation holes 800 to form two first water baffles 801 and two second water baffles 802, the bottom plate 812 extends toward the control box 81 to form two fences 8121 facing the two groups of heat dissipation holes 800 respectively, the fence 8121 does not contact the first side wall 8111, the first water baffle 801 is located inside the fence 8121, the second water baffle 802 is located outside the fence 8121, and a drainage hole 8122 is formed between the first water baffle 801 and the fence 8121, the bottom plate 812 extends toward the control box 81 to form a sixth water baffle 806 parallel to the first side wall 8111, and the sixth water baffle 806 connects the upper and lower fences 8121. As shown in the figure, after the water vapor entering the control box 81 through the heat dissipation hole 800 below is liquefied, it can flow to the drainage hole 8122 through the relatively fixed water flow path defined by the first water baffle plate 801, the second water baffle plate 802 and the fence 8121 below to exclude the control box 81; after the water vapor entering the control box 81 through the heat dissipation hole 800 above is liquefied, it can flow to between the sixth water baffle plate 806 and the second side wall 8112 through the water flow path defined by the first water baffle plate 801, the second water baffle plate 802 and the fence 8121 above, and enter the water flow path corresponding to the heat dissipation hole 800 flowing downward to exclude the control box 81. In addition, the height of the sixth water baffle plate 806 is lower than the height of the fence 8121, which reduces the difficulty of injection molding of the control box 81.

[0038] Specifically, the fence 8121 has a third water baffle 803 parallel to the first side wall 8111, and a fourth water baffle and a fifth water baffle 805 extending from opposite sides of the third water baffle 803 toward the first side wall 8111, the fourth water baffle 804 and the fifth water baffle 805 are parallel to each other, the fourth water baffle 804 is close to the first water baffle 801, the fifth water baffle 805 is close to the second water baffle 802, and the fifth water baffle 805 is flush with the edge of the drainage hole 8122, which is convenient for the optimal design of the water flow path. Further, the top angles of the fourth water baffle 804 and the fifth water baffle 805 are arc-shaped, and two reinforcing ribs 807 are provided on the third water baffle 803 to increase the strength of the fence 8121.

[0039] Preferably, the second water baffle 802 is located at the turning point of the first side wall 8111, the drainage hole 8122 is adjacent to the corner of the bottom plate 812, the first water baffle 801 is perpendicular to the first side wall 8111, and the angle between the second water baffle 802 and the first side wall 8111 is acute, so that the first water baffle 801 and the second water baffle 802 not only limit the water flow path, but also have the function of increasing the strength of the control box 81.

[0040] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
