[0022] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below.

[0023] Reference will be made below Figure 1 - Figure 2 to describe the handle assembly according to the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0024] As Figure 1 - Figure 2 shown, the handle assembly includes: a handle housing 1, a control component 2, and an encapsulation structure 3.

[0025] Among them, the handle housing 1 is for the user to hold. The surface of the handle housing 1 is a complete surface, having a good aesthetic effect. In some embodiments, the handle housing 1 can be a plastic shell, which can prevent electric shock and enable light carrying.

[0026] An air inlet 101 is formed on the handle housing 1. The control component 2 is arranged in the handle housing 1 and is close to the air inlet 101. The control component 2 is encapsulated in the encapsulation structure 3. An air inlet duct 4 is formed between the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3 and the inner wall of the handle housing 1.

[0027] Specifically, the encapsulation structure 3 seals the control component 2, so that an air inlet duct 4 is formed between the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3 and the inner wall of the handle housing 1. In this way, the air flow enters the handle housing 1 from the air inlet 101 and first flows through the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3. The outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3 can guide the air flow to flow through the inside of the handle housing 1 more smoothly.

[0028] Thus, by sealing the control component 2 with the encapsulation structure 3, the air flow enters the handle housing 1 from the air inlet 101. The outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3 can guide the air flow to flow through the inside of the handle housing 1 more smoothly, reduce the air inlet resistance, avoid the loss of the air inlet efficiency of the motor, and at the same time can effectively reduce the noise and improve the air inlet efficiency and the mute effect.

[0029] According to some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the encapsulation structure 3 includes: a first cover plate 301 and a second cover plate 302. The first cover plate 301 covers the second cover plate 302, and an accommodation cavity 5 for accommodating the control component 2 is formed between the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302. An air inlet duct 4 is formed between the outer wall of the first cover plate 301 and / or the second cover plate 302 and the inner wall of the handle housing 1.

[0030] With such an arrangement, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other to install the control component 2 in the accommodation cavity 5, which is convenient for installation. Moreover, an air inlet duct 4 is formed between the outer wall of the first cover plate 301 or the second cover plate 302 and the inner wall of the handle housing 1, or an air inlet duct 4 is formed between the outer walls of the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 and the inner wall of the handle housing 1. The outer walls of the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are relatively smooth, which can guide the air flow to flow through the inside of the handle housing 1 more smoothly.

[0031] See Figure 1 As shown, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the radial direction of the handle housing 1, that is, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are arranged parallel to the axis direction of the handle housing 1. Or, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the axis direction of the handle housing 1, that is, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are arranged perpendicular to the axis direction of the handle housing 1.

[0032] Furthermore, one end of the encapsulation structure 3 far from the air inlet 101 along the axis direction of the handle housing 1 is set to be arc-shaped. With such an arrangement, the arc-shaped structure can guide the air flow to flow through the inside of the handle housing 1 smoothly and reduce the wind resistance.

[0033] Specifically, when the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the radial direction of the handle housing 1, one end of the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 far from the air inlet 101 along the axis direction of the handle housing 1 is designed to be arc-shaped, see Figure 1 . When the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the axis direction of the handle housing 1, one end of the first cover plate 301 or the second cover plate 302 far from the air inlet 101 along the axis direction of the handle housing 1 is designed to be arc-shaped.

[0034] Furthermore, the encapsulation structure 3 is arranged parallel to the axis direction of the handle housing 1, and at least part of the encapsulation structure 3 overlaps with the air inlet 101 in the axis direction.

[0035] With such an arrangement, when the air flow enters the handle housing 1 through the air inlet 101, the air flow flows to the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3. Under the block and guidance of the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3, most of the air flow can flow through the air inlet duct 4 more smoothly, improving the air inlet efficiency.

[0036] Furthermore, a wind blocking rib is arranged at one end of the encapsulation structure 3 close to the air inlet 101 along the axis direction of the handle housing 1, and the wind blocking rib is arranged outside one end of the air inlet 101 far from the air inlet duct 4.

[0037] With such a setting, the wind baffle is arranged outside one end of the air inlet 101 far from the air inlet duct 4, so that most of the air flow can pass through the air inlet duct 4, avoiding the loss of air inlet efficiency.

[0038] Specifically, when the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the radial direction of the handle housing 1, see Figure 1 , the wind baffle is arranged at one end of the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 close to the air inlet 101 along the axial direction of the handle housing 1. When the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are buckled with each other along the axial direction of the handle housing 1, the wind baffle is arranged at one end of the first cover plate 301 or the second cover plate 302 close to the air inlet 101 along the axial direction of the handle housing 1.

[0039] According to some specific embodiments of the present invention, the air inlets 101 are distributed along the axial direction and the circumferential direction on the handle housing 1 to form at least two spaced air inlet regions 102, and the at least two air inlet regions 102 are respectively communicated with the air inlet duct 4.

[0040] With such a setting, the air inlets 101 are arranged along the axial direction and the circumferential direction of the handle housing 1, forming at least two spaced air inlet regions 102, so that the air inlet regions 102 are communicated with the air inlet duct 4, increasing the air inlet area.

[0041] Furthermore, the encapsulation structure 3 is arranged parallel to the axial direction of the handle housing 1, and the encapsulation structure 3 is suspended in the handle housing 1 to divide the interior of the handle housing 1 into two air inlet ducts 4, and the two air inlet ducts 4 are respectively arranged corresponding to the at least two air inlet regions 102.

[0042] With such a setting, as seen Figure 1 described above, since the shape of the handle housing 1 is relatively small, the encapsulation structure 3 can be arranged parallel to the axial direction of the handle housing 1 and suspended in the handle housing 1, so as to fix the relatively large control component 2 on the encapsulation structure 3. Moreover, the encapsulation structure 3 divides the interior of the handle housing 1 into two air inlet ducts 4, and makes the air inlet ducts 4 respectively correspond to the air inlet regions 102 one by one, ensuring the air inlet efficiency.

[0043] According to some specific embodiments of the present invention, the handle assembly further includes: a fan 6, the fan 6 is arranged in the handle housing 1, and the fan 6 is arranged at one end of the encapsulation structure 3 far from the air inlet 101.

[0044] With such a setting, when the fan 6 starts to operate, the suction air flow enters the handle housing 1 from the air inlet 101, passes through the air inlet duct 4 formed by the outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3, and then enters the chamber where the fan 6 is located.

[0045] Further, the blower 6 may include a motor and a blower blade, and the blower blade is power-coupled to the motor shaft of the motor.

[0046] Exemplarily, the blower 6 may be a centrifugal blower 6, or the blower 6 may be an axial-flow blower 6.

[0047] According to some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the control assembly 2 includes: a heating element 201. A notch 303 is provided on one side of the encapsulation structure 3 close to the inner wall of the handle housing 1, and one end of the heating element 201 is provided at the notch 303 and is in sealing cooperation with the notch 303.

[0048] See Figure 1 In the shown embodiment, the first cover plate 301 and the second cover plate 302 are arranged in parallel along the axial direction of the handle housing 1. The control assembly 2 is fixedly installed on the second cover plate 302, and the first cover plate 301 is buckled on the second cover plate 302. Among them, a notch 303 is provided on one side of the second cover plate 302 close to the inner wall of the handle housing 1, and one end of the heating element 201 is in sealing cooperation with the notch 303. In this way, when the air flow passes through the outer wall of the second cover plate 302, the heating element 201 can be effectively cooled, thereby prolonging the service life of the control assembly 2.

[0049] According to some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the handle assembly further includes: a filter plate 7. The filter plate 7 is arranged at one end of the blower 6 close to the encapsulation structure 3 and is used for combing the incoming air flow so that the air flow flows into the blower 6 more uniformly.

[0050] According to some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the handle assembly further includes: a filter net (not shown in the drawings). The filter net is arranged around one side of the encapsulation structure 3 adjacent to the air inlet 101 and is used for filtering dust and other impurities.

[0051] The hair care appliance according to the second aspect embodiment of the present utility model includes a handle assembly. The handle assembly is arranged on the hair care appliance so as to be operated and held by the user, facilitating the user to perform hair care.

[0052] Exemplarily, the handle assembly is the handle assembly of the hair dryer 6. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the handle assembly can also be the handle assembly of other hair care appliances such as a curling iron, and no specific limitation is made.

[0053] According to the handle assembly of the present utility model, by sealing the control assembly 2 with the encapsulation structure 3, the air flow enters the handle housing 1 from the air inlet 101. The outer wall of the encapsulation structure 3 can guide the air flow to flow through the inside of the handle housing 1 more smoothly, reducing the air inlet resistance, avoiding the loss of the air inlet efficiency of the motor, and at the same time effectively reducing the noise and improving the air inlet efficiency and the sound insulation effect.
