Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of household technology, in particular to a multi-purpose heating plate. Background Art
[0002] At present, among household electrical appliances, common products with large-area surface heating (non-high temperature) drying properties include towel racks, vegetable warming plates, table warmers, leg warmers, etc. There are two main types of towel racks, one is a tubular frame structure and the other is a straight plate structure. The tubular frame and straight plate structures have the following defects: First, the drooping section of the towel will form horizontal strip gaps and angle gaps with the horizontal tube type and straight plate type. The gap becomes larger as it goes down, and the water content of the drooping section of the towel increases as it goes down. In this way, the poor synchronization of the drying of the towel section and the angle gap will cause great waste of heat source; second, the towel rack has a single function, is large and bulky, and has high packaging and logistics costs. For vegetable warming plates, table warmers, and leg warmers, they have the same heating effect as towel racks, and repeated purchases cause waste of space layout and resources. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the above, the present invention is necessary to provide a multi-purpose heating plate that is more energy-saving and time-saving for drying towels and can be folded and folded. It can also be flexible and multi-purpose, effectively replacing the need for warming vegetable plates, warming table mats and leg warmers.
[0004] A multi-purpose heating plate comprises a plate body for heating and a flexible strip, wherein the flexible strip is arranged between at least two of the plate bodies and forms a soft connection so that the plate bodies can be turned over or folded.
[0005] Furthermore, the plate body includes a panel and a cover plate, and the panel is parallel to the surface of the cover plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the panel is made of heat-conducting material, and the corners of the panel are set as rounded edges; and / or the surface of the panel is set as mirror material.
[0007] Furthermore, the cover plate is provided with a mounting cavity, and both sides of the cover plate are provided with mounting openings.
[0008] Furthermore, the top of the cover plate is connected to the flexible strip, and the device cavity is connected to the back side of the panel to form a closed cavity.
[0009] Furthermore, a heating source is arranged in the device cavity and attached to the back of the panel; and / or a heat insulation board is also arranged on the back of the heating source.
[0010] Furthermore, the flexible strip is made of fatigue-resistant insulating material; and / or the flexible strip is made of silicone material; and / or the silicone material is transparent or translucent; and / or a light source is provided on the long side wall of the flexible strip.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting opening is adapted to be equipped with an assembly part, and the multi-purpose heating plate is hung and suspended by the assembly part.
[0012] Furthermore, the multi-purpose heating plate also includes a control device, and the control device is electrically connected to the heating source and the power-off protection plug.
[0013] Furthermore, the number of the plate bodies is not limited to two, and the plate body is also provided with a movable edge clip.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, by arranging the flexible strip between at least two heating plates to form a soft connection and making the plates flippable or foldable, it is convenient for storage and can effectively reduce the logistics transportation cost; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate, the plate forms a relatively inclined state, and the flexible strip arches upward to form a drying rod, on which the towel is hung, and the two sections of the towel droop down and adhere to the surface of the plate. The larger the inclination angle of the plate, the faster the towel is dried, which solves the problem that the original tubular horizontal and straight plate towel racks will form horizontal strip gaps and angle gaps with the drooping sections of the towel, saving 30% to 50% of thermal energy; by hanging the multi-purpose heating plate, the plates are used together to facilitate drying the bath towel from top to bottom; by unfolding and laying the multi-purpose heating plate flat, the plate is flat and thin, which is conducive to the insulation of warm tables and warm dishes; by unfolding and placing the multi-purpose heating plate sideways, the plate forms a surrounding warm area, which can be heated at close range. In addition, by setting the panel surface as a mirror material and the flexible strip to be light-transmissive, users can achieve mirror light supplement.

[0030] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.
[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meanings as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.
[0032] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up" and "down", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside" and "outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above directional words are not used to limit the present invention.
[0033] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a flexible connection, an electrical connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] First refer to Figures 1 to 5 A preferred embodiment of the multi-purpose heating plate of the present invention comprises a plate body 1 for heating and a flexible strip 2, wherein the flexible strip 2 is arranged between at least two plate bodies 1 and forms a soft connection so that the plate bodies 1 can be turned over or folded.
[0036] From the above description, it can be seen that the plate body 1 of the multi-purpose heating plate can be flipped or folded, which is convenient for storage and can effectively reduce logistics transportation costs; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate 100, the plate body 1 is relatively inclined, and the flexible strip 2 is arched upward to form a drying rod, and the drying rod is used to hang towels, and the two sections of the towels are drooped and attached to the surface of the plate body 1. The larger the inclination angle of the plate body 1, the faster the towels are dried, which solves the problem that the original tubular horizontal and straight plate towel racks will form horizontal strip gaps and angle gaps with the drooping sections of the towels, saving 30% to 50% of thermal energy; by hanging the multi-purpose heating plate 100, the plate body 1 is used together to facilitate drying bath towels from top to bottom; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate 100 and laying it flat, the plate body 1 is flat and thin, which is conducive to the insulation of warm tables and warm dishes; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate 100 and placing it sideways, the plate body 1 surrounds the warm area, which can be heated at close range.
[0037] As a preferred embodiment of the multi-purpose heating plate in the present invention, it may also have the following additional technical features:
[0038] In this embodiment, the plate body 1 includes a panel 10 and a cover plate 11. The panel 10 and the cover plate 11 are parallel to each other (eg, Figure 6 As shown), the plate body 1 is split, simple in structure, with fewer processing steps, and easy to install and connect the flexible strip 2, which can effectively improve production efficiency. At the same time, when the multi-purpose heating plate 100 is laid flat on the desktop, the overall surface is flat and has no abrupt feeling.
[0039] See also Figure 1 The panel 10 is made of heat-conducting material, which is conducive to rapid heating and uniform temperature of the panel 10. The corners of the panel 10 are set as smooth edges to prevent human scratches. In one embodiment, the panel 10 is set as a mirror material with a mirror function, which is equivalent to not having to purchase an additional defogger, thereby improving space utilization and reducing layout costs.
[0040] See also Figure 6 The cover plate 11 is provided with a device cavity 120, and snap-in openings 111 are provided on both sides of the cover plate 11. In one embodiment, folded edges 110 are provided on both sides and the bottom of the cover plate 11, and the folded edges 110 on both sides are provided with snap-in openings 111. The top of the cover plate 11 is abutted and connected to the flexible strip 2, and the folded edges 110 are abutted and connected to the back of the panel 10. The cover plate 11 can be connected to the panel 10 in a closed cavity by common connection methods such as snaps, rivets, and welding to prevent water vapor from entering the cavity.
[0041] See also Figure 6 , a heating source 3 is arranged in the device cavity 120, and the panel 10 is set as a heating plate. The heating source 3 is a resistor or an electric heating wire. The present invention does not limit the heating type of the heating source 3, and it can be a heat source such as graphene heating, alloy wire heating film, etc. In one embodiment, a heat insulation plate 4 is also arranged on the back of the heating source 3, which can keep the panel 10 warm for a long time, and effectively slow down the heat propagation of the heating source 3 to the cover plate 11, so that even if the cover plate 11 is touched manually, there will be no strong burning sensation.
[0042] See also Figure 5 , Figure 6 The flexible strip 2 is made of anti-fatigue and insulating material, which can be PU polymer material or fabric and other materials. In this embodiment, the flexible strip 2 is made of silicone material, and the silicone material of the flexible strip 2 is transparent or translucent. A light source 5 is provided on the long side wall of the flexible strip 2. When the light source 5 emits light, the translucent flexible strip 2 has a colorful visual light perception, which enhances the lighting and decorative effect of the multi-purpose heating plate 100.
[0043] See also Figure 6 In this embodiment, the side of the cover plate 11 is provided with a card-mounting port 111, and the card-mounting port 111 is adapted to the assembly part 8 with a plug-in end. The assembly part 8 is provided with a hanging hole 81 for screw connection. By inserting the plug-in end into the card-mounting port 111 and the mounting hole 81, the multi-purpose heating plate 100 can be hung and suspended (such as Figure 2 In other embodiments, the towel drying rack may also adopt other suitable hanging structures, for example, a bracket structure placed on the ground, a hanging structure hung on the ceiling, a hanging structure hooked on a rod, etc. Those skilled in the art may flexibly select and adjust according to needs, and are not limited thereto.
[0044] In order to facilitate control, the multi-purpose heating plate 100 is also provided with a controller 6 (such as Figure 1As shown), in this embodiment, the control device 6 is electrically connected to the heating source 3 and the power-off protection plug 7, which are conventional devices in the field and will not be described here. In other embodiments, a moisture detection device (not shown) for detecting the moisture content of the towel can also be set on the plate body 1, thereby accurately judging the humidity of the hanging towel, and correspondingly controlling the start and stop or heating power of the heating device according to the humidity of the towel, which can effectively prevent the situation where the heating device is turned off before the towel is dried, and the situation where the towel continues to be heated after it is dried, and there is no need for the user to manually set the heating time, which can effectively reduce energy consumption, improve the drying effect, and facilitate use. In application, the above functions can be controlled by the controller 6.
[0045] In this embodiment, the number of the plate bodies 1 includes but is not limited to two (such as Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown), the flexible strip 2 connects the four plate bodies 1, so that the multi-purpose heating plate 100 has a smaller volume when folded and folded, which is beneficial to reduce material packaging and logistics costs. The plate body 1 is also provided with a movable edge clip 9. The edge clip 9 has a "U"-shaped cross-section and can be elastically clamped on the edge of the panel. First, it forms a ground protection for the edge of the panel to separate the edge of the panel from residual water stains. When the plate body 1 is unfolded and placed relatively obliquely, it can prevent the plate body 1 from sliding, so that the two plate bodies 1 are tilted symmetrically at the same angle, which is beneficial to the synchronous drying effect of the two sections of the towel, and solves the problem that the original tubular horizontal row and straight plate towel racks will form horizontal strip gaps and angle gaps with the drooping sections of the towel, saving 30%~50% of heat energy. Secondly, the edges of multiple plates can be fixedly connected (such as Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown), the edge clip 9 can also be clamped between two flattened plates 1 so that the panels 10 of the two plates 1 are maintained on the same plane without misalignment. When the plates 1 need to be folded, the edge clip 9 can be folded by sliding.
[0046] It should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art may adjust the above settings so that the present invention can be applied to more specific application scenarios.
[0047] For example, in an alternative embodiment, although the above embodiment is introduced in conjunction with the cover plate 11 provided with a folded edge 110, it is obvious that this method of forming the device cavity 120 is not the only one. The panel 10 or the cover plate 11 may be carved / etched, and there may be enough installation space after connection. When the cover plate 11 is made of heat-resistant material, the heat-insulating plate 4 may be omitted.
[0048] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the panel 10 of the above embodiment may be made of mirror material to provide users with mirror beauty, but it is obvious that a pattern layer may also be provided on the panel 10 to increase the decorative effect, which is conducive to the multi-purpose heating plate 100 to attract more consumers.
[0049] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the light source 5 is disposed on the long side wall of the flexible strip 2 in the above embodiment, but it is obvious that the flexible strip 2 can also be disposed on other sides of the plate body 1 (such as Figure 7 As shown in the figure, a flexible strip 2 and a light source 5 are provided on the other long side of the plate body 1. The light from the light source 5 can provide brightening illumination for the user when using the multi-purpose heating plate 100 through the flexible strip 2.
[0050] Of course, the above-mentioned replaceable implementations, as well as the replaceable implementations and the preferred implementations, can be used in a cross-coordinated manner to combine new implementations to suit more specific application scenarios.
[0051] Specifically, the multi-purpose heating plate 100 works as follows:
[0052] According to different uses, the user can unfold the plate body 1 to form a relatively oblique stand for use, or hang the multi-purpose heating plate 100 for use, or lay the multi-purpose heating plate 100 flat and unfold it for use on its side, and then set the heating time and heating temperature on the control device 6 and turn on the light source 5 until the set heating time ends, and the multi-purpose heating plate will automatically power off and shut down.
[0053] From the above description, it can be seen that the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention achieves the following technical effects: by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate, the plate body 1 is relatively inclined, the flexible strip 2 is arched upward to form a drying rod, and the towel is hung on the drying rod, and the two sections of the towel are respectively drooped and attached to the surface of the plate body 1. The larger the inclination angle of the plate body 1, the faster the towel is dried, which solves the problem that the original tubular horizontal row type and straight plate type towel rack will form horizontal strip gaps and angle gaps with the drooping sections of the towel, saving 30% to 50% of thermal energy; by hanging the multi-purpose heating plate 100, the plate body 1 is used together for easy self-drying Dry the bath towel from top to bottom; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate 100 and laying it flat, the plate body 1 is flat and thin, which is conducive to the insulation of warm tables and warm dishes; by unfolding the multi-purpose heating plate 100 and placing it on its side, the plate body 1 forms a surrounding warm area, which can be heated at close range; by folding the plate body 1, it is easy to store and can also effectively reduce logistics and transportation costs. In addition, by setting the number of plate bodies 1 of the multi-purpose heating plate 100 to multiple, the folded and folded volume is smaller, further reducing the material packaging cost; by setting the surface of the panel 10 to mirror material and the flexible strip 2 to be light-transmissive, the user can achieve mirror fill light.
[0054] Example 2
[0055] Another embodiment of the multi-purpose heating plate 100 of the present application is introduced below.
[0056] The overall structure of this embodiment is roughly the same as that of Example 2. The difference from Example 2 is that a cartoon shape is integrated into the plate body 1. The cartoon shape of the plate body 1 can be a cartoon animal, a person, or a scene combined with a cartoon animal. The present embodiment is preferably a panda outline image (such as Fig.10 as shown).
[0057] In this embodiment, the flexible strip 2 is both a connecting strip between the two plate bodies 1 and a sealing strip between the cartoon contour edges of the panel 10 and the cover plate 11 (such as Fig.10 As shown), a light source 5 is provided on the side wall of the flexible strip 2. In one embodiment, a recessed portion is provided on the flexible strip 2 to match the cartoon contour edge of the panel 10 and the cover plate 11. The contour edge of the panel 10 and the cover plate 11 can be snapped into the recessed portion, and the panel 10 and the cover plate 11 are flush with the surface of the flexible strip 2, so that the flexible strip 2 forms a surrounding edge effect on the cartoon contour of the plate body 1. In this way, the light emitted by the light source 5 is brightened through the flexible strip 2, so that the multi-purpose heating plate 100 can have a bright edge decoration and a lighting decorative effect.
[0058] The panel 10 is also provided with a cartoon pattern 101 (such as Fig.10 As shown), the present embodiment preferably uses a panda image. Since cartoon images with different body movements are provided on the panels 10 of the two plate bodies 1, the interactivity is strong and the ornamental value is high. The cartoon pattern 101 can be set to thermochromic ink. When the temperature changes continuously, the ink color changes accordingly. It can also be frosted and etched to form a contrast effect with the mirror material of the panel 10. It can be understood that the cartoon pattern 101 provided on the panel 10 can be derived into many cartoon expressions or pattern changes according to actual needs, so as to attract a wider range of consumers.
[0059] It should be noted that, although the control device is not specifically described in the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can understand that the control device can use a WiFi module to achieve remote control of start and stop, so as to achieve intelligent timing control of temperature and light. In short, the setting method of the above control device does not constitute a limitation to the present application, and those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust it based on the actual application scenario.
[0060] Those skilled in the art can understand that the light emitting and heating device includes some well-known structures, such as a low-voltage LED waterproof light source, and a heating source in the heating device is a resistor or an electric heating wire. The present invention does not limit the heating type of the heating source, and it can be a heat source such as graphene heating, alloy wire heating film, etc. In order to unnecessarily obscure the embodiments of the present disclosure, these well-known structures are not shown in the drawings.
[0061] Those skilled in the art will also appreciate that, although some embodiments described herein include certain features included in other embodiments but not other features, the combination of features of different embodiments is meant to be within the scope of the present invention and form different embodiments. For example, in the claims of the present invention, any one of the claimed embodiments may be used in any combination.
[0062] So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
