Detailed Embodiment

[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-5, the present utility model provides a technical solution:

[0028] A flame-like humidifying flow channel structure for a heating device, comprising:

[0029] A fireplace body 1, with a placement groove 2 opened on the front of the fireplace body 1;

[0030] A humidifying mechanism 3, which is arranged at the lower end of the fireplace body 1. The humidifying mechanism 3 includes a water tank 301 and an atomizing assembly 302. The water tank 301 is slidably connected to the lower end of the inner cavity of the fireplace body 1 through a slide rail 303 for air humidification. Both ends of the water tank 301 are snap-connected to the fireplace body 1 through a snap-fit assembly 4. The atomizing assembly 302 includes a water suction pipe 3021 and a flow channel pipe 3022. One end of the water suction pipe 3021 penetrates through one side of the water tank 301. There is a telescopic pipe 3023 between the water suction pipe 3021 and the flow channel pipe 3022. A micro water pump 3024 installed on the fireplace body 1 is provided on the flow channel pipe 3022. The extended end of the telescopic pipe 3023 passing through the fireplace body 1 is connected with a drain pipe 3025, and a plurality of atomizing nozzles 3026 are provided on the drain pipe 3025;

[0031] A warm air mechanism 5, which is arranged in the inner cavity of the fireplace body 1 for heating air. The warm air mechanism 5 includes an air suction hood 501, an air delivery pipe 502, two branch pipes 503, a fan 504 and a heating assembly 505. An air inlet 506 communicating with the air suction hood 501 is opened at the upper end of the fireplace body 1. Both ends of the air delivery pipe 502 are respectively communicated with the air suction hood 501 and the two branch pipes 503. The extended ends of the two branch pipes 503 passing through the fireplace body 1 are installed with exhaust pipes 507. Both the fan 504 and the heating assembly 505 are connected to the air delivery pipe 502; and

[0032] An effect structure 6, which is arranged in the placement groove 2.

[0033] In this embodiment, during heating, the blower 504 sucks the indoor air into the air duct 502 through the dust suction hood from the air inlet 506. The gas in the air duct 502 is heated by the heating component 505. The heated gas is transported to the exhaust duct 507 through the two branches 503. A number of exhaust holes on the exhaust duct 507 are used for the discharged heated gas, so as to heat the indoor space. Meanwhile, during heating, the micro water pump 3024 pumps out the water in the water tank 301 through the water suction pipe 3021 and the flow channel pipe 3022, and then sprays it atomized through a number of atomizing nozzles 3026, which can humidify the indoor space and avoid discomfort caused by overly dry indoor air. When adding water to the water tank 301, the water tank 301 can be pulled out and fixed through the slide rail 303 and the engaging component 4, which is convenient for adding water. Among them, through the setting of the telescopic pipe 3023, it can extend during the process of pulling out the water tank 301 and contract when the water tank 301 is pushed in. The effect structure 6 can increase the visual effect of user use while heating and humidifying.

[0034] Specifically, the engaging component 4 includes an engaging block 401, a first return spring 402, a number of second return springs 403, a push block 404 and a push plate 405. A moving groove 406 for the sliding of the engaging block 401 is provided on the fireplace body 1. An installation groove 407 for installing the first return spring 402 is provided in the middle of the moving groove 406. The engaging block 401 penetrates through the first return spring 402. A connecting groove 408 is provided on the fireplace body 1. The push plate 405 is engaged in the connecting groove 408 through a number of second return springs 403. A through groove 409 for the movement of the push block 404 is provided on one side of the moving groove 406. One end of the push block 404 is fixedly connected to the push plate 405, and the other end is misaligned with the engaging block 401. A engaging groove 410 for the other end of the engaging block 401 to engage is provided at the lower end of the water tank 301. Right-angled triangular blocks 411 are provided at one ends of the engaging block 401 and the push block 404, and the inclined surfaces of the two triangular blocks 411 are misaligned with each other.

[0035] When removing the water tank 301, push the push plate 405. The push plate 405 squeezes a number of second return springs 403. The push plate 405 drives the push block 404 to move in the through groove 409. Since the engaging block 401 and one end of the push block 404 are provided with triangular blocks 411 that are offset from each other, the engaging block 401 can be driven to move downward. One end of the engaging block 401 is withdrawn from the engaging groove 410, and then the water tank 301 can be taken out. When fixing the water tank 301, similarly, push the push plate 405, push the water tank 301 in, and then release the push plate 405. A number of second return springs 403 and the first return spring 402 release elastic potential energy. A number of second return springs 403 push the push plate 405 to move, thereby driving the push block 404 to move. The first return spring 402 drives the engaging block 401 to move, so that one end of the engaging block 401 is engaged in the engaging groove 410, thereby fixing the water tank 301 and preventing children or others from accidentally touching and taking out the water tank 301, which affects indoor humidification.

[0036] Furthermore, a water collecting tank 7 is opened at the lower end of the placement groove 2. A through hole 8 is opened in the middle of the water collecting tank 7. A liquid level sensor 9 is installed in the inner cavity of the water collecting tank 7. When humidifying the air, the humidifying water mist may remain on the simulated wood 601. When there is more water mist remaining on the simulated wood 601, water droplets will be generated. The water droplets fall into the water collecting tank 7 and can enter the water tank 301 through the through hole 8, and the water droplets can be centrally processed. Among them, through the setting of the liquid level sensor 9, the water capacity in the water tank 301 can be monitored. When the water in the water tank 301 is less, the user can be reminded in time to add water in time to avoid affecting the humidification use.

[0037] Specifically, the effect structure 6 includes a simulated wood 601, a light source 602, and a controller 603. The controller 603 is electrically connected to the light source 602, the fan 504, the heating component 505, the micro water pump 3024, and the liquid level sensor 9, and is used to control air heating and humidification and control the lighting effect. The controller 603 can control the light source 602 to illuminate the simulated wood 601, and can control the fan 504 and the heating component 505 to heat the air, and control the micro water pump 3024 to pump out and atomize the water in the water tank 301. Among them, the light source 602 can be an LED irradiation lamp, and the simulated wood 601 is made of plastic.

[0038] On the basis of the above embodiment, the drain pipe 3025 and the exhaust pipe 507 are both arranged at a certain angle. The water mist sprayed by a number of atomizing nozzles 3026 is sprayed toward the simulated wood 601, and the hot air discharged from the exhaust pipe 507 can blow the water mist upward. Combined with the setting of the light source 602, the simulated wood 601 and the blown mist are illuminated, increasing the authenticity of the simulated flame pile and presenting a more flame-like combustion effect.

[0039] It should be noted that the specific model specifications of the liquid level sensor 9, the light source 602, and the controller 603 need to be selected according to the actual specifications of the device, etc. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be elaborated in detail.

[0040] The principle of the micro water pump 3024 is clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0041] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
