[0041] The present invention proposes a bathroom heater, aiming to solve the problem of difficult installation of existing bathroom heaters due to the need to tilt the box body and push it upward to the top of the keel during installation.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 The bathroom heater includes a panel 1 and a fan 2. The panel 1 includes a panel body 11 and a boss 12 protruding outward from the panel body 11. The panel body 11 has two mounting edges 111 both arranged on the same side of the boss 12. The two mounting edges 111 are respectively used to connect with the two keels 10. An air inlet 112 and an air outlet 113 are provided on the panel body 11. The boss 12 has a first air duct 121 and a second air duct 122. The first air duct 121 has a first air inlet hole and a first air outlet hole, and the second air duct 122 has a second air inlet hole and a second air outlet hole. The air inlet 112 is connected to the first air inlet hole, and the air outlet 113 is connected to the second air outlet hole. The fan 2 is installed on the boss 12, and the air inlet side of the fan 2 is connected to the first air outlet hole, and the air outlet hole of the fan 2 is connected to the second air inlet hole.

[0043] The bathroom heater of the present invention includes a panel 1 and a fan 2. The panel body 11 has at least one pair of mounting edges 111. The number of mounting edges 111 can be 1 pair, 2 pairs, etc. The fan 2 is installed on the boss 12 of the panel 1. When installing the bathroom heater, it is only necessary to face the side of the panel 1 with the boss 12 upwards, and then lift the bathroom heater upwards until the two mounting edges 111 are respectively buckled on the corresponding keels 10. The installation is convenient and quick. When disassembling, it is only necessary to pull the panel 1 downwards to take the entire bathroom heater out. When the bathroom heater is in operation, the fan 2 is turned on, and the air below the panel 1 is drawn from the air inlet 112 into the first air duct 121, and then the air in the first air duct 121 is drawn into the second air duct 122, and blown out from the air outlet 113. The air flow path is: air inlet 112, first air duct 121, fan 2, second air duct 122, and air outlet 113. The bathroom heater of the present invention fixes the fan 2 directly on the boss 12 of the panel 1 without a box structure, making the bathroom heater simple in structure, compact and light, and can be lifted horizontally until it engages with the keel 10, with little installation difficulty.

[0044] In addition, please combine Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, multiple bathroom heaters of the present invention can be installed on the integrated ceiling to achieve multi-position airflow according to actual space requirements. Fixed-point airflow can also be achieved. Each bathroom heater is equipped with a corresponding human body sensor, and a controller is connected to these human body sensors. For example, a bathroom cabinet is equipped with a corresponding bathroom heater and human body sensor. When the human body sensor senses that a user is lingering in front of the bathroom cabinet, the human body sensor sends a detection signal to the controller, which activates the bathroom heater above the bathroom cabinet. Furthermore, the fan 2 can be a lightweight structure, such as an axial flow fan 2 or a cross-flow fan 2.

[0045] Please combine Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in one embodiment, each mounting edge 111 is provided with a protrusion 1111 for engaging with the corresponding keel 10, and the protrusion 1111 extends along the length of the mounting edge 111. In order to make the fastening between the panel 1 and the keel 10 more secure, the inner side of the mounting edge 111 is provided with a protrusion 1111 for engaging with the slot of the keel 10.

[0046] Furthermore, in one embodiment, each mounting edge 111 has at least two protrusions 1111, which are spaced apart along the length of the mounting edge 111. To ensure a more reliable engagement between each mounting edge 111 and the corresponding keel 10, each mounting edge 111 is provided with at least two protrusions 1111, which are spaced apart along the length of the mounting edge 111. If one protrusion 1111 becomes worn or deformed, the other protrusions 1111 can still engage the keel 10.

[0047] In another embodiment, the end face sizes of the protrusions 1111 on the two mounting edges 111 are inconsistent. To prevent the bathroom heater from falling due to vibration or the keel 10 aging and weakening of the clamping force, the protrusions 1111 on the opposite mounting edges 111 are of different thicknesses. When the panel 1 falls, the forces exerted on the keel 10 to break free are different. Therefore, even if the bathroom heater falls, one side will fall first and the other side will get stuck, preventing it from falling suddenly. This can serve as a warning to the user.

[0048] In another embodiment, the thickness of each mounting edge 111 gradually decreases from the side close to the panel body 11 to the direction away from the panel body 11. In order to facilitate the installation of the panel 1 on the keel 10, the mounting edge 111 can be set to a certain taper, specifically, the mounting edge 111 is thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom.

[0049] In addition, please combine Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the boss 12 has a mounting top surface 123 away from the plate body 11, and the fan 2 is mounted on the mounting top surface 123.

The sidewalls of the groove 124 are provided with a first air outlet, and the mounting top surface 123 is provided with a second air inlet. To facilitate the manufacture of the boss 12, the mounting top surface 123 is recessed to form a groove 124 at the outer periphery where the fan 2 is mounted. The first air duct 121 is located within the boss 12, and the sidewalls of the groove 124 facing the fan 2 are provided with a first air outlet, so that the first air outlet is connected to the air inlet side of the fan 2. The air outlet of the fan 2 faces the mounting top surface 123, and the mounting top surface 123 is provided with a second air inlet at the position where the fan 2 is mounted, so that the second air inlet is connected to the air outlet of the fan 2.

[0050] There are two grooves 124, which are symmetrically distributed on opposite sides of the second air duct 122. The first air duct 121 is provided on the side of the second air duct 122 where the groove 124 is located. In the grooves 124 and the first air duct 121 arranged on the same side, a first air outlet is provided on the sidewall of the groove 124. The number of air inlets 112 is consistent with the number of first air ducts 121 and corresponds one to one. The number of first air ducts 121 is at least one pair, which can be 1 pair, 2 pairs, 3 pairs, etc., thereby increasing the air intake and improving the processing efficiency of the bathroom heater. Moreover, at least one pair of first air ducts 121 is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the second air duct 122, so that the fan 2 can obtain a consistent air volume from its opposite sides, making the air flow under the panel 1 uniform.

[0051] In one embodiment, the distance between two keels 10 is d1, and the distance between two mounting edges 111 is d2, where d1 = d2. The dimensions of the gusset plate between the two keels 10 are typically 300 mm x 300 mm, meaning d1 is 300 mm. To ensure universal installation, the distance between each pair of mounting edges 111 on the panel 1 can be set to 300 mm.

[0052] Furthermore, please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown, to achieve multiple functions, the bathroom heater also includes an upper shell 3, which is covered on the boss 12 and isolates the first air outlet and the air inlet side of the fan 2 from the outside world. The upper shell 3 is fixed to the boss 12 and can be installed by structural clamping, mechanical connection through parts such as screws, or by glue, ultrasonic welding, etc. The upper shell 3 can prevent dust and foreign matter from falling into the fan 2.

[0053] In addition, please combine Figure 4 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 As shown, in the above embodiment, the bathroom heater also includes a heating assembly 4 provided in the second air duct 122. In one embodiment, the heating assembly 4 includes a base 41, a heating element 42, and at least a pair of heat sinks 43 spaced apart. The base 41 is connected to the inner wall of the second air duct 122, and the base 41 is connected to the at least one pair of heat sinks 43, and the heating element 42 is clamped between the at least one pair of heat sinks 43. The heating element 42 is used to heat the air in the second air duct 122. The heating assembly 4 can be located on the side of the second air duct 122 close to the fan 2 or on the side away from the fan 2. The air blown out from the second air duct 122 can be heated by the heating assembly 4, so that the blown air is hot air. Moreover, the base 41 can be a separate part, so as to facilitate the maintenance and installation of the heating assembly 4. The base 41 can also be an integrally formed part with the panel 1, so as to reduce the number of parts and facilitate the installation of the bathroom heater.

[0054] Furthermore, please combine Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 8As shown, the bathroom heater also includes a filter plate 5 connected to the plate body 11.
