[0032] Furthermore, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various components shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn to actual scale; for example, the thickness or width of some layers may be exaggerated relative to other layers.

[0033] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined or described in one figure, it will not need to be further discussed and described in subsequent descriptions of the figures.

[0034] Example

[0035] Existing beauty refrigerators only offer basic cooling, preservation, and moisturizing functions, lacking additional features and are easily replaceable. Furthermore, their inadequate heat dissipation design can lead to insufficient internal cooling, overheating, and potential damage, even posing a risk of natural disasters. The reliance on a single mains voltage power supply also limits their usability in various scenarios and environments.

[0036] To facilitate understanding of the induction-heated beauty refrigerator provided by this invention, its important internal components will be described below:

[0037] Infrared sensing probe 1 has two probes: one for transmitting signals and one for receiving signals. When the mask is inserted into the induction heating area 12, the receiving signal probe and the transmitting signal probe are isolated from each other, and the heating panel 2 starts to work.

[0038] Connect heating panel 2 to heat the face mask placed on heating panel 2.

[0039] The heat insulation plate 3 is placed between the induction heating zone 12 and the cooling zone 13 to prevent the heat flow temperature of the induction heating zone 12 from affecting the ambient temperature of the cooling zone 13; at the same time, it also prevents the temperature of the induction heating zone 12 from affecting the service life of the internal plastic components.

[0040] The cooling aluminum sheet 4 absorbs heat and is discharged through the cooling fan 6.

[0041] The heat sink 5 absorbs the airflow discharged by the axial fan 8 and cools it down. The cool air enters the cooling zone 13 through the hole in the sheet metal part.

[0042] Cooling fan 6 dissipates the heat from the cooling aluminum sheet 4 outside the beauty refrigerator.

[0043] Foam block 7 is designed to be installed on the back of axial fan 8, forming a seal between axial fan 8 and plastic rib 103, so that air cannot flow from here, and axial fan 8 can only deliver airflow to heat sink 5.

[0044] The axial fan 8 draws air out of the cooling zone 13 of the beauty refrigerator and delivers air to the heat dissipation aluminum fins 5, so that the air inside and outside the cooling zone 13 forms a cycle.

[0045] The back panel 9 surrounds the internal components, protecting them from damage while maintaining the product's appearance. Three air vents are designed on the back panel. The central vent is the main exhaust vent 91, directly opposite the cooling fan 6, expelling air from the fan. The two air inlets 92 are positioned opposite each other, creating convection for efficient airflow.

[0046] The enclosure 10 has two air inlet zones 101 and one air outlet zone 102. The airflow cooled by the heat sink 5 enters through the two air inlet zones 101, circulates inside the enclosure 10, and is then drawn out by the axial fan 8 through the air outlet zone 102 and sent to the heat sink 5, forming a cycle.

[0047] like Figure 1-8As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: an induction-heated beauty refrigerator, including a cabinet 10 and a door 21. An induction heating zone 12 and a cooling zone 13 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower parts of the cabinet 10. The induction heating zone 12 and the cooling zone 13 do not contact each other. An infrared sensing probe 1 is installed on the top of the induction heating zone 12, and a heating panel 2 is installed on the bottom of the induction heating zone 12. A heat insulation plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the heating panel 2. A PTC heating module 16 is installed between the heating panel 2 and the heat insulation plate 3. A cooling aluminum fin 4 is installed on the back of the cooling zone 13, and a heat dissipation aluminum fin 5 is installed on the back of the cooling aluminum fin 4. An electronic cooling chip 18 is installed between the cooling aluminum fin 4 and the heat dissipation aluminum fin 5. A cooling fan 6 is installed on the back of the heat dissipation aluminum fin 5, located on the side of the cooling aluminum fin 4, to blow air onto the cooling aluminum fin 4. 8. The space between the housing 10 and the back panel 9 is filled with insulating foam. The door 21 is fixed to the housing 10 by a hinge 24. The door 21 includes a door cover 211 and a door liner 212. Insulating foam is installed in the cavity of both. A sealing strip 213 is also installed on the door liner 212. The door cover 211 and the door liner 212 are also equipped with multiple square magnets 214 and a small round magnet 215. Multiple magnets 22 that attract the square magnets 214 are installed inside the housing 10. A magnetic induction switch 23 corresponds to the small round magnet 215. The back panel 9 is fixedly connected to the back of the housing 10. The back panel 9 has a main air outlet 91 in the middle of the back of the back panel 9, which corresponds to the position of the cooling fan 6. The back panel 9 has air inlets 92 on both sides of the back of the back panel 9. The heating panel 2 is made of thermally conductive metal. The heat insulation board 3 is made of heat-insulating mica board or asbestos board.

[0048] An air inlet area 102 is located on the back of the enclosure 10, opposite to the axial fan 8. Two air outlet areas 101, connected to the cooling zone 13, are opened on the back of the enclosure 10. Plastic reinforcing bars 103 are fixedly connected to the back of the enclosure 10, forming an airflow channel connecting the air inlet area 102 and the two air outlet areas 101 in conjunction with foam blocks 7. Multiple LED light strips 17 are installed on the inner walls of the upper and lower ends of the cooling zone 13 of the enclosure 10. Temperature control probes 20 are also installed on the inner walls of the enclosure 10. Power sockets 1 are located on the back of the back panel 9. 4. A control circuit board 19 is also provided between the housing 10 and the back panel 9 of the cooling switch 15. The control circuit board 19 is electrically connected to the infrared sensor probe 1, the power socket 14, the cooling switch 15, the LED light strip 17, the PTC heating module 16, the temperature control probe 20, the magnetic induction switch 23, the cooling fan 6 and the axial fan 8 respectively. The cooling area 13 of the housing 10 is provided with a shelf 25. The shelf 25 is provided with multiple ventilation holes 2501 and a flange 2502 to prevent objects from slipping. A drawer 26 is provided at the lower end of the shelf 25.

[0049] It is important to note that the top of the refrigerator features an induction heating zone 12, which houses a pair of infrared sensor probes 1, consisting of a transmitting signal probe and a receiving signal probe. In winter or low-temperature environments, when a face mask is inserted into the heating port and detected by the infrared sensor probes 1, the heating panel 2 begins to heat up. After a certain period, the mask is removed, ensuring it remains warm and comfortable on the face without feeling cold. A heat insulation plate 3 is designed at the bottom of the heating panel 2, positioned between the heating panel 2 and the internal plastic components. This protects the internal plastic components from accelerated aging and prolonged lifespan due to high temperatures, while also maintaining the low-temperature environment of the cooling zone 13.

[0050] Air circulates in cooling zone 13 to ensure a consistent internal temperature. Cool air generated by the heat sink 5 is introduced into the housing 10 through two air inlets 101. As shown in the diagram, the air is drawn out by the axial fan 8 at the exhaust zone 102 of the housing 10 and then sent back to the heat sink 5 for cooling. The cooling fins 4 absorb heat, which is then drawn out by the cooling fan 6 and discharged through the main exhaust vent 91. The two air inlets 92 on the back panel 9 are positioned opposite each other, creating convection to facilitate airflow.

[0051] This beauty refrigerator features a power outlet 14, offering two power supply options for use in various locations and scenarios (including car charging). The induction heating zone 12 can be positioned at the bottom of the refrigerator, with the cooling zone 13 at the top. Alternatively, the heating zone can be designed with the top facing downwards. Figure 8 As shown.

[0052] The biggest advantage is the infrared-sensing heating zone 12, which heats the mask in winter or low-temperature environments to prevent frostbite. An axial fan 8 delivers air directly to the heat sink 5, accelerating its cooling speed. The three air vents on the back panel 9 ensure good airflow for efficient heat dissipation and cooling.

[0053] It should be noted that the interior of the cooling zone 13 is designed with multiple partitions for placing items. The bottom of each partition is equipped with a guide hole for cold air circulation, so that the temperature of the entire cooling zone 13 can be kept at the same level by relying on the circulation of cold air, thus avoiding uneven temperature distribution.

[0054] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
