[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0046] Next, in combination with Figures 1 to 8 , the embodiments of the present invention will be described.

[0047] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, a power cord storage structure is provided, which is arranged on the main body 4 of the electrical appliance. The power cord storage structure includes a winding structure 1 and a wire clamping structure 2. Among them, the winding structure 1 is formed on the main body 4, and the power cord 5 can be wound around the outer periphery of the winding structure 1. The wire clamping structure 2 is arranged at one side of the winding structure 1 and can limit the wound power cord 5.

[0048] During the use of the power cord storage structure of the present utility model, the power cord 5 can be wound around the outer periphery of the winding structure 1, thereby achieving the storage of the power cord 5, avoiding the power cord 5 being in a mess. The end of the wound power cord 5 can be limited by the wire clamping structure 2, so as to ensure that the power cord 5 can be firmly stored on the winding structure 1, avoiding the loosening or dispersion of the wound power cord 5, thus ensuring the neatness and beauty of the appearance of the electrical appliance, and significantly improving the stability and safety of the power cord 5, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0049] In addition, the above-mentioned power cord storage structure is simple in structure, easy to assemble, safe and reliable in use, and is convenient for implementation and popularization.

[0050] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the winding structure 1 includes a ventilation opening 101 and a grille 102. Among them, the ventilation opening 101 is opened on the main body 4. As Figure 5 shown, the grille 102 is arranged at the ventilation opening 101 and at least partially protrudes outward from the ventilation opening 101, and the power cord 5 can be wound around the outer periphery of the grille 102.

[0051] By setting like this, the grille 102 can not only protect the core components inside the fan, effectively guide the air flow, and ensure the efficiency and stability of the air flow, but also be used for winding the power cord 5. Thus, by means of the original grille 102 on the electrical appliance, the function of storing the wire 501 of the power cord 5 is achieved, which can make the structure of the electrical appliance simpler and more compact without increasing the manufacturing cost of the electrical appliance.

[0052] Among them, the ventilation opening 101 can be an air inlet or an air outlet.

[0053] Exemplarily, in a preferred embodiment, the ventilation opening 101 is selected as the air inlet.

[0054] Since the position of the air inlet can be set to be relatively concealed, therefore, when the ventilation opening 101 is selected as the air inlet, it is convenient to hide the winding structure 1, which helps to improve the aesthetics of the electrical appliance.

[0055] As a transformable implementation manner, the winding structure 1 is also configured as a convex edge surrounding the outside of the ventilation opening 101.

[0056] As another transformable implementation manner, the winding structure 1 can also be selected as a winding convex part or a winding groove formed on the main body 4.

[0057] In one embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the power cord storage structure further includes a filter cover 3, and the filter cover 3 is used to cover the ventilation opening 101 and the wire clamping structure 2.

[0058] By setting it like this, the filter screen cover 3 can not only play the role of filtering air dust, but also be used to hide the wire clamping structure 2, thereby further improving the aesthetics of the electrical appliance.

[0059] On this basis, the filter screen cover 3 can also be used to further limit the power cord 5, thereby further improving the stability and safety of the power cord 5. Therefore, the position of the wire clamping structure 2 of the power cord storage structure in the embodiment of the present application is ingeniously designed and can be blocked and hidden by the filter screen cover 3, thereby improving the aesthetics of the product without affecting the product function.

[0060] The filter screen cover 3 is preferably made of an insulating material, thereby further improving the safety of the power cord 5.

[0061] In a preferred embodiment, the filter screen cover 3 is preferably detachably connected to the main body 4 of the electrical appliance so that the user can wind the wire 501 around the grille 102.

[0062] The connection between the filter screen cover 3 and the main body 4 is preferably but not limited to a detachable connection implemented by a clamping structure, a riveting structure, a threaded connection structure or a magnetic attraction structure.

[0063] As an alternative embodiment, the filter screen cover 3 can also be fixedly arranged at the air inlet, and the user can pass the wire 501 through the gap between the filter screen cover 3 and the main body 4 and wind it around the grille 102 of the filter screen cover 3.

[0064] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the wire clamping structure 2 includes a first rib 201 and a second rib 202 arranged at intervals, and the power cord 5 can be clamped between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202.

[0065] In a preferred embodiment, the ventilation opening 101 is a circular opening, and the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the ventilation opening 101.

[0066] By setting it like this, it can be ensured that the power cord 5 is bent as little as possible when it is wound around the winding structure 1 and then clamped by the wire clamping structure 2.

[0067] As an alternative embodiment, the distance direction between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 can also form an angle with the radial direction of the ventilation opening 101.

[0068] As another alternative embodiment, the wire clamping structure 2 can also be a hook suitable for the main body 4.

[0069] In one embodiment, along the direction away from the main body 4, the distance between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 gradually increases.

[0070] With such a setting, during the process of the power cord 5 being snapped between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202, the part with a larger distance between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 facilitates the snapping of the power cord 5. As the depth of the power cord 5 snapped into the wire clamping structure 2 gradually increases, the distance between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 can gradually decrease, so as to play a fastening role after the power cord 5 is snapped into the wire clamping structure 2, ensuring the firmness of the storage of the power cord 5.

[0071] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. In the description of the present utility model, "a plurality" means more than two, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0072] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the power cord 5 includes a wire 501 and a plug 502.

[0073] In one embodiment, after the wire 501 of the power cord 5 is wound around the winding structure 1, the metal piece on the plug 502 of the power cord 5 can be clamped on the wire clamping structure 2.

[0074] By using a relatively hard metal piece to cooperate with the wire clamping structure 2, it can ensure a more reliable connection between the wire clamping structure 2 and the power cord 5, and at the same time avoid damage to the wire 501 of the power cord 5.

[0075] As a variable implementation manner, as Figure 4 shown, the wire 501 of the power cord 5 is clamped on the wire clamping structure 2.

[0076] In one embodiment, a wire clamping groove is formed between the first rib 201 and the second rib 202, and an arc chamfer is provided on at least one side surface of the first rib 201 facing the second rib 202 and / or on at least one side surface of the second rib 202 facing the first rib 201.

[0077] As Figure 3 shown, the arc chamfer is located at at least one side position along the extending direction of the wire clamping groove, and the arc chamfer can prevent the first rib 201 and the second rib 202 from damaging the power cord 5.

[0078] In one embodiment, the winding structure 1 and the wire clamping structure 2 are provided at the bottom of the main body 4.

[0079] With such a setting, the power cord storage structure can be made more concealed, thereby improving the aesthetics of the electrical appliance.

[0080] As a transformable embodiment, the power cord storage structure can also be optionally provided at the top or side of the electrical appliance.

[0081] When the back side of the electrical appliance needs to be against the wall during use, the power cord storage structure can also be optionally provided at the back side of the electrical appliance.

[0082] In summary, during the use of the power cord storage structure according to the embodiment of the present invention, the power cord 5 can be wound around the outer periphery of the winding structure 1, so as to realize the storage of the power cord 5, avoid the power cord 5 being in a mess. The end of the wound power cord 5 can be limited by the wire clamping structure 2, so as to ensure that the power cord 5 can be firmly stored on the winding structure 1 to avoid the wound power cord 5 from spreading, thus ensuring the appearance of the electrical appliance is neat and beautiful, and significantly improving the stability and safety of the power cord 5, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0083] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, an electrical appliance is also provided, including a main body 4, a power cord 5 and the power cord storage structure provided in the first aspect of the present invention. Among them, the power cord 5 is connected to the main body 4. The power cord storage structure is provided on the main body 4.

[0084] The electrical appliance in the second aspect of the present invention includes or uses the power cord storage structure in the first aspect of the present invention, so it has its beneficial effects, that is, it can ensure that the power cord 5 can be firmly stored on the winding structure 1 to avoid the wound power cord 5 from spreading, thus ensuring the appearance of the electrical appliance is neat and beautiful, and significantly improving the stability and safety of the power cord 5, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0085] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the types of electrical appliances are not limited.

[0086] Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown, the electrical appliance is an electric heater.

[0087] As a transformable embodiment, the electrical appliance can also be optionally a computer, a television, a stereo, a fan, a humidifier and other electrical appliances that need to be connected to the power supply by means of the power cord 5.

[0088] In one embodiment, an outlet 401 is provided at the bottom of the main body 4. The outlet 401 is used for the power cord 5 to pass through into the main body 4. The outlet 401 and the wire clamping structure 2 of the power cord storage structure are respectively arranged on both sides of the winding structure 1.

[0089] The outlet 401 is provided at the bottom of the main body 4, which can avoid the power cord from being exposed and damaging the aesthetics of the electrical appliance. On this basis, the outlet 401 and the wire clamping structure 2 of the power cord storage structure are respectively arranged on both sides of the winding structure 1, which can avoid interference between the plug 502 of the power cord 5 and the power cord 5 at the outlet 401.

[0090] As a transformable embodiment, the wire outlet 401 can also be selected to be on the same side of the wire winding structure 1 as the wire clamping structure 2.

[0091] As another transformable embodiment, the wire outlet 401 can also be selected to be provided on the side wall or the top wall of the main body 4.

[0092] In a preferred embodiment, a chamfer is formed on the side wall of the wire outlet 401, which can prevent the power cord 5 from rubbing against the side wall of the wire outlet 401 during the wire winding process and causing damage to the power cord 5.

[0093] In an embodiment, a support structure 402 protruding from the bottom surface of the main body 4 is formed on the main body 4, and the support structure 402 is arranged around the outer periphery of the power cord storage structure.

[0094] By setting like this, it can be avoided that when the main body 4 is placed on the ground, the wire winding structure 1 and the power cord 5 come into contact with the ground, causing pollution to the wire winding structure 1 and the power cord 5, or damage to the power cord 5.

[0095] Exemplarily, the support structure 402 can be selected to be a support ring formed at the bottom of the main body 4, and the support ring can effectively shield the power cord 5 and the wire winding structure 1, thereby further improving the aesthetics of the electrical appliance.

[0096] As a transformable embodiment, the support structure 402 can also be selected to be a support leg or a universal wheel provided at the bottom of the main body 4.
