After the power is turned on, the current flows through the silicon carbide heating element 30, thereby converting the electrical energy into thermal energy. When the airflow flows through the surface of the silicon carbide heating element 30, the airflow can be heat-exchanged with the silicon carbide heating element 30, so that the airflow flowing through the silicon carbide heating element 30 can be heated. Compared with the electric heating wire, even if the new type of air duct is used for a long time, it will not cause the silicon carbide heating element 30 to be disconnected. The surface of the silicon carbide heating element 30 refers to the surface of the silicon carbide heating element 30 that is exposed to the air and can contact the airflow, including the gap wall formed by the silicon carbide heating element 30 and the inner wall of the through hole.

After the blank is dried, it is placed in a sintering furnace for sintering to obtain the silicon carbide heating element 30.

[0052] The technical solution of the utility model adopts a silicon carbide heating element 30, so that the surface of the silicon carbide heating element 30 is used as a heat exchange surface to directly exchange heat with the airflow flowing through the air duct 13. The silicon carbide heating element 30 has a high thermal efficiency and can quickly generate heat, so that the outlet airflow can be quickly heated. Compared with the transmission electric heating wire heating device, the silicon carbide heating element 30 is an integrated structure with a simple structure and a small size. While ensuring the heating effect, it can reduce the space occupied in the handle 10. When the fan assembly 20 and the heating device are simultaneously arranged in the handle 10, the size of the handle 10 can also be made smaller, which is conducive to reducing the overall size of the new hair dryer and is convenient for users to hold, use and store.

[0053] In some embodiments, the novel hair dryer further comprises a driving mechanism 70, which is arranged in the air duct 13 and is transmission-connected with the accessory connection structure 14 to drive the accessory connection structure 14 to rotate. That is, when the driving mechanism 70 is driven, the accessory connection structure 14 can be driven to rotate relative to the handle 10 by the driving mechanism 70, so that when the air outlet accessory 60 is installed on the accessory connection structure 14, the air outlet accessory 60 can be driven to rotate together for use. For example, when the air outlet accessory 60 is a comb head with comb teeth on the outer circumference, the hair can be combed by driving the air outlet accessory 60 to rotate. Optionally, the accessory connection structure 14 is cylindrical and rotatably mounted on the outside of the handle 10, and the driving mechanism 70 comprises a motor and a transmission mechanism (for example, a driving gear arranged on the motor shaft and a transmission tooth arranged on the inner circumference of the accessory connection structure 14), and the motor is transmission-connected with the accessory connection structure 14 through the transmission mechanism. Alternatively, the accessory connection structure 14 is cylindrical and rotatably mounted on the end of the handle 10. Optionally, the motor is located on the side of the silicon carbide heating element 30 away from the air inlet 11, and the accessory connection structure 14 extends to the motor or the motor is provided with a transmission shaft 71 that passes through the silicon carbide heating element 30 and is connected to the accessory connection structure 14. Alternatively, the motor is located between the silicon carbide heating element 30 and the air outlet 12, and a heat insulation layer is provided on the outside of the motor.

[0054] In addition, in some other embodiments, the new type of hair dryer also includes a driving mechanism 70, which is arranged in the air duct 13 and has a transmission shaft 71 extending to the air outlet 12, and the transmission shaft 71 is used to connect the air outlet accessory 60 to drive the air outlet accessory 60 to rotate. That is, the accessory connection structure 14 is fixed to the end of the handle 10, and the air outlet accessory 60 is rotatably mounted on the accessory connection structure 14 and docked with the transmission shaft 71, so that the air outlet accessory 60 can be driven to rotate by the transmission shaft 71. Optionally, the motor is located on the side of the silicon carbide heating element 30 away from the air inlet 11, and the silicon carbide heating element 30 is provided with a through hole, and the transmission shaft 71 extends to the air outlet 12 through the through hole; or the motor is located between the silicon carbide heating element 30 and the air outlet 12, and a heat insulation layer is provided on the outside of the motor.

[0055] In some embodiments, the new hair dryer further includes an air outlet accessory 60, which is detachably connected to the accessory connection structure 14. In this way, the user can rotate and install the air outlet accessory 60 for use as needed, thereby increasing the application scenarios of the new hair dryer.

[0057] In some embodiments, the silicon carbide heating element 30 is disposed between the air outlet 12 and the fan assembly 20. This makes the silicon carbide heating element 30 closer to the air outlet 12, which can reduce the flow path of the hot air flow heated by the silicon carbide heating element 30 in the air duct 13, which is conducive to reducing heat loss. In addition, it can prevent the hot air flow from passing through the fan assembly 20, which can prevent the fan assembly 20 from overheating, and can also better dissipate heat for the fan assembly 20.

[0058] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 , the circuit assembly 40 is located between the silicon carbide heating element 30 and the fan assembly 20, or, referring to Figure 2 The circuit assembly 40 is located on the side of the fan assembly 20 away from the silicon carbide heating element 30. This arrangement can prevent the hot air flow from passing through the fan assembly 20 and the circuit assembly 40, and can also better dissipate heat for the fan assembly 20 and the circuit assembly 40.

[0059] In some embodiments, the new hair dryer also includes a heat-insulating component 50, which is disposed in the handle 10 and surrounds the circumference of the silicon carbide heating element 30; this can reduce the heat conduction of the silicon carbide heating element 30 to the outer surface of the handle 10, which is beneficial to reduce heat loss and prevent the handle 10 from overheating and scalding the user or causing discomfort during use. Among them, the heat-insulating component 50 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and a channel with two ends through it is formed inside. The silicon carbide heating element 30 is disposed in the channel, and its material can be ABS plastic, PP plastic or thermal insulation foam, etc. Among them, the heat-insulating component 50 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and a channel with two ends through it is formed inside.

Specifically, the slot extends to one end of the heat insulating component 50 or the end of the slot close to one end of the heat insulating component 50 is open, so that the silicon carbide heating element 30 can be installed into the heat insulating component 50 from one end of the heat insulating component 50 in a state where the convex rib 38 corresponds to the slot.

[0061] In some embodiments, a protective net 15 is provided at the air outlet 12. This can prevent foreign matter from entering the air duct 13 even when the air outlet accessory 60 is not installed, and can also prevent users from accidentally inserting their fingers into the air duct 13 and getting burned.
