[0031] The present utility model provides an air duct assembly and an electric heater that improve the heating efficiency and effectively reduce energy consumption.

[0032] The following combines Figures 1 to 5 to elaborate more detailedly on the technical solutions provided by the present utility model.

[0033] The present utility model provides an air duct assembly 100, which includes a cyclone passage 130. The cyclone passage 130 is provided with an air outlet 140 and at least two groups of air inlet passages 150. The air inlets of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 form a swirling air flow in the cyclone passage 130 and then are discharged from the air outlet 140, and the orientations of the air inlets 210 of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 are different from the orientation of the air outlet 140.

[0034] The present utility model provides an air duct assembly 100, which includes a cyclone passage 130. The cyclone passage 130 is provided with an air outlet 140 and at least two groups of air inlet passages 150. The air inlets of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 can form a swirling air flow in the cyclone passage 130 and then are discharged from the air outlet 140. The swirling air flow can disrupt the air at the air outlet 140, accelerate the air flow to make the heat blend and dissipate quickly, greatly accelerate the increase and maintenance of the indoor temperature, and effectively reduce the energy consumption. In addition, the orientations of the air inlets 210 of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 are different from the orientation of the air outlet 140, so as to ensure that the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 will not be repeatedly inhaled by the air inlet passages 150, avoid the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 being repeatedly heated, and improve the heating efficiency.

[0035] It can be understood that the orientations of the air inlets 210 of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 are different from the air outlet direction of the air outlet 140, which can avoid the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 being repeatedly heated and improve the heating efficiency. It should be understood that: the orientations of the air inlets 210 of at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 are different from the air outlet direction of the air outlet 140. At this time, since the orientations of the air inlets 210 of all the air inlet passages 150 are different from the air outlet direction of the air outlet 140, it can better avoid the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 being repeatedly heated; or it can be understood that: the orientations of the air inlets 210 of some of the at least two groups of the air inlet passages 150 are different from the air outlet direction of the air outlet 140, which can also improve the heating efficiency.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present utility model, there are two groups of the air inlet passages 150. Two cyclone baffles 160 are arranged in the cyclone passage 130. The cyclone baffles 160 are arc-shaped baffles, and the two cyclone baffles 160 are arranged in central symmetry.

[0037] Each of the two cyclone baffles 160 can guide the air inlet of one of the two groups of the air inlet passages 150 to the other air inlet passage 150 of the two groups of the air inlet passages 150, so that the air inlets of the two groups of the air inlet passages 150 form a swirling air flow in the cyclone passage 130 and are discharged from the air outlet 140.

[0038] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, there are two groups of air inlet channels 150, and two groups of cyclone baffles 160 are arranged in the cyclone channel 130. Since both of the two cyclone baffles 160 can deflect the incoming air of one air inlet channel 150 to the other air inlet channel 150, after the incoming air of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 is deflected by the two groups of cyclone baffles 160, a rotating air flow is formed in the cyclone channel 130 and discharged from the air outlet 140. The rotating air flow can disrupt the air at the air outlet 140, accelerate the air flow, and enable the heat to be quickly blended and dissipated, greatly accelerating the increase and maintenance of the indoor temperature and effectively reducing the energy consumption.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the cyclone baffle 160 includes a first diversion section 170, an extension section 180, and a second diversion section 190, and the first diversion section 170, the extension section 180, and the second diversion section 190 are sequentially connected to form an S-shaped structure;

[0040] The bending radius of the second diversion section 190 is smaller than that of the first diversion section 170. The incoming air of one of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 is sequentially deflected by the first diversion section 170, the extension section 180, and the second diversion section 190 to the other air inlet channel 150 of the two groups of air inlet channels 150.

[0041] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the cyclone baffle 160 is in an S-shaped structure, and the bending radius of the second diversion section 190 is smaller than that of the first diversion section 170. After the incoming air is deflected by the first diversion section 170 and the extension section 180, its direction is changed by the large bending angle of the second diversion section 190 to form a deflected air flow. The incoming air of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 respectively forms two deflected air flows, and the two deflected air flows are mixed to form a rotating air flow and discharged from the air outlet 140.

[0042] It should be noted here that the bending radius of the second diversion section 190 being smaller than that of the first diversion section 170 means that the bending amplitude of the second diversion section 190 is larger than that of the first diversion section 170. When the incoming air passes through the second diversion section 190, a greater deflection can be achieved. After the air flows passing through the two air inlet channels 150 respectively pass through the two groups of the second diversion sections 190, their directions are both changed to form a rotating air flow.

[0043] It can be understood that when the air inlet channels 150 are arranged in three groups or more groups, a simple deformation of the above cyclone baffle 160 can also be used to change the direction of the air inlet of the air inlet channels 150, so as to form a rotating air flow.

[0044] When the air inlet channels 150 are arranged in three groups or more, the three groups or more air inlet channels 150 can be distributed in a circular array along the circumferential direction of the cyclone channel 130.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present utility model, two groups of the air inlet channels 150 are arranged along a first direction and the air inlet directions of the two groups of the air inlet channels 150 are opposite, and the air outlet 140 is arranged along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0046] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the two groups of air inlet channels 150 respectively introduce air into the cyclone channel 130 from both sides of the first direction. After a rotating air flow is formed in the cyclone channel 130, it is discharged from the air outlet 140 in the second direction perpendicular to the first direction, thereby ensuring that the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 will not be repeatedly sucked into the air inlet duct, avoiding the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 from being repeatedly heated, and improving the heating efficiency.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the first direction is the horizontal direction, the second direction is the vertical direction, and the air outlet 140 is arranged vertically upward.

[0048] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged along the horizontal direction, the air outlet 140 is arranged vertically upward, and the hot air discharged from the air outlet 140 does not directly blow on people, which can improve the user experience.

[0049] In addition, by using the principle that hot air rises and cold air descends, it can be ensured that the hot air discharged from the air outlet 140 rises, while the cold air entering the air inlet channels 150 is all from below. The electric heater can always preferentially heat the cold air, efficiently generate heat, and reduce energy consumption.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the two groups of the air inlet channels 150 are arranged at an oblique angle to each other.

[0051] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged along the horizontal direction, and the air inlet directions of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 are opposite. The two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged at an oblique angle to each other, so that by introducing air from both sides, a rotating air flow is formed in the cyclone channel 130 under the action of the cyclone baffle 160 and then discharged.

[0052] It can be understood that the two groups of the air inlet channels 150 can also be arranged in parallel and are inclined to both ends of the cyclone channel 130.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present utility model, it further includes a baffle plate 200. The baffle plate 200 is connected to the second diversion section 190 and extends into the cyclone channel 130, and the setting direction of the baffle plate 200 is the same as the air inlet direction of the air inlet channel 150.

[0054] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the setting direction of the baffle 200 is consistent with the air inlet direction of the air inlet passage 150. The baffle 200 can guide the air inlet of the air inlet passage 150 into the cyclone passage 130, avoiding the direct contact between the air inlet at the end of the air inlet passage 150 and the turning air flow on the other side, and affecting the air inlet effect.

[0055] In addition, the baffle 200 can block part of the turning air flow, interrupt part of the turning air flow, thereby disturbing the direction of the turning air flow, prompting the formation of a rotating air flow among the turning air flows, and then mixing with the turning air flow on the other side and discharging from the air outlet 140. The rotating air flow can more quickly disturb the air outside the air outlet 140, accelerate the air flow to make the heat blend and dissipate quickly, greatly accelerating the increase and maintenance of the indoor temperature, and effectively reducing the energy consumption.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the ratio of the bending radius of the first guiding section 170 to the bending radius of the second guiding section 190 is 3:1.

[0057] In some of the above embodiments of the present utility model, the bending radius of the second guiding section 190 is much larger than the bending radius of the first guiding section 170. The second guiding section 190 can better change the air flow direction, and is more conducive to the formation of a rotating air flow.

[0058] The present utility model also provides an electric heater, including the air duct assembly 100 as described above.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present utility model, a fan assembly 110 and a PCT heating assembly 120 are provided in each of the two air inlet passages 150, and the two fan assemblies 110 are arranged oppositely.

[0060] For the electric heater provided by the present utility model, a fan assembly 110 and a PCT heating assembly 120 are provided in each of the two air inlet passages 150. The fan assembly 110 and the PCT heating assembly 120 are used to generate hot air. The two fan assemblies 110 are arranged oppositely, and the structure is more compact, which can reduce the occupied space of the electric heater. The hot air enters from at least two air inlet passages 150, and can form a rotating air flow in the cyclone passage 130 and then discharge from the air outlet 140. The rotating hot air flow can disturb the air at the air outlet 140, accelerate the air flow to make the heat blend and dissipate quickly, greatly accelerating the increase and maintenance of the indoor temperature, and effectively reducing the energy consumption. In addition, the air inlet directions of at least two air inlet passages 150 are different from the air outlet direction of the air outlet 140, so as to ensure that the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 will not be repeatedly inhaled by the air inlet duct, avoiding the repeated heating of the air flow discharged from the air outlet 140 and improving the heating efficiency.

[0061] Embodiment 1:

[0062] The utility model provides an electric heater, as Figures 1 - 4 shown, which includes an air duct assembly 100, a fan assembly 110 and a PCT heating assembly 120. The air duct assembly 100 includes a cyclone channel 130. The cyclone channel 130 is provided with an air outlet 140 and two groups of air inlet channels 150. A fan assembly 110 and a PCT heating assembly 120 are provided in both groups of air inlet channels 150. The fan assembly 110 and the PCT heating assembly 120 are used to convey hot air into the cyclone channel 130, and the hot air forms a rotating air flow in the cyclone channel 130 and then is discharged from the air outlet 140.

[0063] Furthermore, the cyclone channel 130 includes two groups of cyclone baffles 160. The cyclone baffles 160 are arc-shaped baffles, and the two groups of cyclone baffles 160 are arranged in central symmetry to form the cyclone channel 130. The two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged at both ends of the two groups of cyclone baffles 160.

[0064] Specifically, the two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged diagonally, and the two groups of air inlet channels 150 are arranged parallel to each other in the horizontal direction. The air outlet 140 is arranged in the vertical direction, and the air outlet 140 is arranged vertically upward. The fans of the two groups of fan assemblies 110 are arranged in the two groups of air inlet channels 150, and the two groups of fans are arranged oppositely.

[0065] Furthermore, the cyclone baffle 160 includes a first diversion section 170, an extension section 180 and a second diversion section 190. The first diversion section 170, the extension section 180 and the second diversion section 190 are connected in sequence to form an S-shaped structure;

[0066] The bending radius of the second diversion section 190 is smaller than that of the first diversion section 170. The air inlet of one of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 is diverted through the first diversion section 170, the extension section 180 and the second diversion section 190 to the other air inlet channel of the two groups of air inlet channels 150.

[0067] The two groups of cyclone baffles 160 can respectively divert the air inlet of one of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 to the other air inlet channel of the two groups of air inlet channels 150, so that the air inlets of the two groups of air inlet channels 150 form a rotating air flow in the cyclone channel 130 and are discharged from the air outlet 140.

[0068] Furthermore, it further includes a baffle plate 200. The baffle plate 200 is connected to the second diversion section 190 and extends into the cyclone channel 130, and the setting direction of the baffle plate 200 is consistent with the air inlet direction of the air inlet channel 150.

[0069] The air supply process of the electric heater provided by the present utility model is as follows: The electric heater is placed on the ground. Under the action of the fan assembly 110, air enters from the air inlet channel 150 and hot air is generated under the heating action of the PCT heating assembly 120. The hot air enters the cyclone channel 130 and blows upward. Blowing upward can avoid direct blowing on people and improve the user experience. Secondly, blowing the hot air upward can reasonably utilize the principle that hot air rises and cold air sinks, ensuring that the air inlet channel 150 can effectively introduce cold air, avoiding repeated circulation and heating of hot air, enabling the indoor temperature to rise rapidly and reducing energy consumption.

[0070] Example 2:

[0071] The difference between this Example 2 and Example 1 is that as Figure 5 shown, the two groups of the air inlet channels 150 can also be arranged in parallel and are inclined at both ends of the cyclone channel 130.
