[0002] A hair dryer is a household appliance that is mainly used to dry hair or other wet items, as well as to shape hair styles. A hair dryer is usually composed of a set of electric heating wires and a small high-speed fan. It is driven by electricity to generate hot air to quickly dry the hair. A hair dryer is also commonly called a hair dryer, electric hot air blower, etc.
[0003] The hair dryer is a daily hairdressing product and one of the indispensable tools for haircutting. It can complete hairdressing and drying hair conveniently and quickly. However, due to the "7"-shaped structure of the traditional hair dryer, it occupies a large area and is extremely inconvenient to store, especially when traveling. It is not suitable to store it in a bag. However, in home use, placing it randomly will affect the appearance of the room. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a hair dryer with a foldable bracket that can be adjusted at multiple angles. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, such as large occupied area and extremely inconvenient storage, the utility model aims to provide a travel-friendly, portable and foldable hair dryer.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a portable and foldable hair dryer for travel, comprising a first shell, a second shell rotatably arranged relative to the first shell, a blower for blowing air is arranged in the first shell or the second shell; a first magnet is arranged on the first shell, and a third magnet for cooperating with the first magnet is arranged on the second shell;
[0006] The hair dryer also includes a control unit, an induction element used in conjunction with a magnet and electrically connected to the control unit, the blower is electrically connected to the control unit, the induction element is arranged on the shell and is triggered by a magnet that is movably arranged relative to the induction element, and the control unit obtains the trigger signal of the magnet received by the induction element to control the start and stop of the blower.
[0007] Preferably, the sensing element is arranged on the first shell, and is used to control the operating state of the fan to be turned off via the control unit when the sensing element senses the third magnet. This can avoid unnecessary energy consumption when blowing is not needed, and help improve the energy efficiency of the hair dryer. At the same time, the user does not have to manually turn off the hair dryer, but can automatically trigger the sensing element to turn off the fan by folding / flipping the first shell to the corresponding position, making it more convenient and labor-saving for the user to use.
[0008] Preferably, a first connecting portion is provided on the first shell body, and a second connecting portion is provided on the second shell body, and the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are rotatably arranged. By rotating the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion, the user can adjust the overall shape of the hair dryer to achieve different wind directions and blowing angles, which helps to meet the user's personalized blowing needs. At the same time, the rotatably arranged connecting portion helps to fold the hair dryer into a more compact shape, thereby making it easier to store the hair dryer. This is in line with the design concept of portability and storage, making the hair dryer suitable for carrying during travel.
[0009] Preferably, a second connecting portion is provided with a second magnet for use with the first magnet, and the second magnet is used to adsorb with the first magnet when the first shell is unfolded relative to the second shell. When the first shell is unfolded relative to the second shell, the mutual adsorption of the first magnet and the second magnet will cause the two shells to automatically lock / adsorb / fit at a specific position. Such a design makes the hair dryer more stable when unfolded and not easy to fold or collapse during use. At the same time, through the magnetic connection method, users can more easily unfold and close the hair dryer without excessive physical force, which helps to improve the user-friendliness of the product.
[0010] Preferably, an insulating tube is provided in the second shell, and a heating component for heating the air blown out of the second shell is provided in the insulating tube.
