DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] The present invention relates to a drying device, which is applied to a smart toilet, and the drying device includes a housing 100, a semiconductor temperature control module 200, a fan assembly 300 and a first temperature conducting member 400. The present invention also relates to a smart cover and a smart toilet. The drying device is installed on the smart cover, or the drying device is installed on the smart toilet, or the smart cover with the drying device installed is installed on the smart toilet for use.

[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the housing 100 can be assembled by an upper shell and a lower shell by mutually buckling, screw locking, etc. A first air duct 110 is provided inside the housing 100. The first air duct 110 has a first air inlet 111 and a first air outlet 112. The drying device can be installed on a hip washing / female washing device in an intelligent cover or an intelligent toilet, and moves with the hip washing / female washing device. When in use, the first air outlet 112 faces the user's buttocks, and the first air duct 110 is used to blow and dry the user's buttocks. The semiconductor temperature control module 200 can be a semiconductor refrigeration / heating sheet. The two sides of the semiconductor temperature control module 200 are respectively defined as a first temperature control side 210 and a second temperature control side 220. The semiconductor temperature control module 200 is electrically connected to an external control system. The control system can control the output of a forward voltage and a reverse voltage to the semiconductor temperature control module 200, and the semiconductor temperature control module 200 has a first state and a second state according to different voltages. When a forward voltage is output to the semiconductor temperature control module 200, the first temperature control side 210 on the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is for cooling, and the second temperature control side 220 is for heating, and the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is in the first state. When a reverse voltage is output to the semiconductor temperature control module 200, the first temperature control side 210 on the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is for heating, and the second temperature control side 220 is for cooling, and the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is in the second state. The first temperature conducting member 400 is made of metal material, and the first temperature conducting member 400 is connected to the first temperature control side 210. The first temperature conducting member 400 performs heat exchange on the temperature of the first temperature control side 210 when cooling or heating. The fan assembly 300 is mounted on the housing 100, and the fan assembly 300 supplies air to the first air inlet 111 of the first air duct 110. The first temperature conducting member 400 can be located inside the first air inlet 111 or the first air duct 110. The first temperature conducting member 400 increases the heat exchange area between the first temperature control side 210 and the airflow. The airflow generated by the fan assembly 300 flows through the first temperature conducting member 400 and then blows out through the first air duct 110. When in use, after the user completes the buttocks washing / female washing on the smart toilet, the drying device is turned on. According to user needs, the cold air drying mode or the hot air drying mode can be selected. In the cold air drying mode, the first temperature control side 210 of the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is for cooling. The first temperature control side 210 cools the first temperature conducting member 400, and the airflow forms cold air after flowing through the first temperature conducting member 400 and is discharged from the first air outlet 112 of the first air duct 110, and the cold air blows and dries the user's buttocks area. In the hot air drying mode, the first temperature control side 210 of the semiconductor temperature control module 200 is for heating. The first temperature control side 210 heats the first temperature conducting member 400, and the airflow passes through the first temperature conducting member 400 to form hot air, which is discharged from the first air outlet 112 of the first air duct 110. The hot air dries the user's hip area. The semiconductor temperature control module 200 can realize hot and cold switching, providing users with different drying modes to meet different usage requirements.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, a second air duct 120 is further provided on the housing 100. The fan assembly 300 can supply air to the second air duct 120. The second temperature control side 220 is located on the air flow path of the fan assembly 300 supplying air to the second air duct 120. The airflow generated by the fan assembly 300 takes away the heat energy on the second temperature control side 220, and the formed cold air or hot air is discharged outward through the second air duct 120. When the first temperature control side 210 is cooling, the second temperature control side 220 is equivalent to the heat dissipation side, and the heat on the second temperature control side 220 is driven by the airflow to dissipate, thereby ensuring the cooling effect of the first temperature control side 210. Among them, a second temperature conductive member 500 can be installed on the second temperature control side 220. The second temperature conductive member 500 is made of metal. The second temperature conductive member 500 is used to exchange heat with the second temperature control side 220, so as to improve the cooling or heat dissipation efficiency of the second temperature control side 220. The second temperature conducting member 500 is located on the airflow path of the fan assembly 300 to supply air to the second air duct 120. The second air duct 120 has a second air inlet 121 and a second air outlet 122. The second temperature conducting member 500 can be installed at the second air inlet 121 of the second air duct 120, or can be installed in the second air duct 120. The second temperature control side 220 increases the heat exchange area with the airflow through the second temperature conducting member 500.

[0036] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the interior of the housing 100 is hollow to form a channel 130. The channel 130 is separated by a partition 150 to form a first air duct 110 and a second air duct 120. The first air duct 110 and the second air duct 120 are parallel, and the first air inlet 111 of the first air duct 110 and the second air inlet 121 of the second air duct 120 are both facing the side where the fan assembly 300 is located. The first heat conducting member 400 is installed in the first air inlet 111, and the second heat conducting member 500 is installed in the second air inlet 121. In the direction shown in the figure, the first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 121 are distributed up and down. The first air duct 110 extends obliquely from the first air inlet 111 to the front and downward, and the first air outlet 112 is set forward. The second air duct 120 changes direction downward from the second air inlet 121, and the second air outlet 122 is set downward. The second air outlet 122 can be directed to the water tank or other spatial position of the smart toilet. An air cavity 140 is formed inside the housing 100, and the air cavity 140 is connected to the channel 130. The fan assembly 300 is installed in the air cavity 140. When the fan assembly 300 is started, the fan assembly 300 simultaneously supplies air to the first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 121. The airflow forms different air volumes in the first air duct 110 and the second air duct 120 according to the design dimensions of the first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 121 or the dimensions of the first heat conducting member 400 and the second heat conducting member 500.

[0037] In this embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first temperature conducting member 400 and the second temperature conducting member 500 have the same structure. The fan assembly 300 supplies the same amount of air to the first temperature conducting member 400 and the second temperature conducting member 500. The first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 121 are configured to have the same opening area and shape. The heat exchange efficiency of the airflow passing through the first temperature conducting member 400 and the second temperature conducting member 500 is the same, thereby ensuring that the heat exchange on both sides of the semiconductor temperature control module 200 remains balanced.

[0038] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the interior of the first thermal conductive member 400 and the second thermal conductive member 500 are both formed by folding metal sheets multiple times. The metal sheets can be pultruded aluminum alloy, thin copper plates, etc. The metal sheets are folded in an S shape in sequence, and the metal sheets form multiple layers of heat-conducting layers 401. Spaces for airflow are formed between adjacent heat-conducting layers 401. When the airflow flows through the first thermal conductive member 400 and the second thermal conductive member 500, the airflow passes through the spaces between the heat-conducting layers 401, thereby effectively increasing the heat exchange area.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a temperature sensing module 600 is provided at the first air outlet 112 of the first air duct 110. The temperature sensing module 600 can be a temperature sensor. The temperature sensing module 600 is used to monitor the air flow temperature of the first air duct 110. The temperature sensing module 600 feeds back the detection signal to the external control system, and the control system controls the cooling / heating power of the semiconductor temperature control module 200 to control the air flow temperature.
