[0018] In order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below with reference to the embodiments. The contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4The figure shows a snap-fit wind duct, comprising a T-shaped shell and a fan 3 installed on the upper part of the T-shaped shell and a power supply device 11 installed on the lower part of the T-shaped shell. The lower part of the T-shaped shell is equipped with a control panel 12 and a gear assembly 13. The fan 3, the power supply device 11 and the gear assembly 13 are electrically connected to the control panel 12. It also includes two end covers 2 that are detachably connected to the two ends of the upper part of the T-shaped shell and a bottom cover 21 connected to the lower end of the T-shaped shell. Both ends of the upper part of the T-shaped shell and the lower end of the T-shaped shell are provided with a convex edge 14. The end cover 2 and the bottom cover 21 are provided with an annular groove 22 corresponding to the convex edge 14, and the convex edge 14 is embedded in the annular groove 22. The T-shaped shell is formed by two half shells 1 being matched together. The convex edge 14 is divided into two arcs and distributed on the two half shells 1. The gear assembly 13 is arranged on the lower side wall of one of the half shells 1.

[0020] During the assembly process of the snap-fit air duct, first place a half shell 1 on the workbench, install the gear assembly 13 on the inner wall of the half shell 1, and then place the fan 3, power supply device 11 and screen at the corresponding positions in the half shell 1. After plugging in the corresponding wires, align the other half shell 1 with the half shell 1 and snap it together. Finally, install the two end covers 2 and a bottom cover 21 to the corresponding ends so that the convex edge 14 is embedded in the annular groove 22 to complete the installation. No auxiliary tools are needed for installation, which greatly saves time consumption in the assembly process, reduces the difficulty of assembly, and significantly improves assembly efficiency. After adopting the above structural design, the connection structure of the two half shells 1 is stable and reliable, no screw holes are required, and the appearance is more beautiful.

[0021] In this embodiment, the inner side of the end cover 2 is provided with a connecting sleeve 23 extending into the upper end of the T-shaped shell, and the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 23 is provided with an L-shaped snap-fit groove 24. The inner wall of the upper end of the T-shaped shell is provided with a snap-fit block 15, and the snap-fit block 15 is embedded in the L-shaped snap-fit groove 24. During the assembly process of the end cover 2, after aligning the snap-fit block 15 with the entrance of the L-shaped snap-fit groove 24, the end cover 2 is squeezed until the convex edge 14 is completely embedded in the annular groove 22, and then the end cover 2 is rotated until the snap-fit block 15 moves to the bottom of the L-shaped snap-fit groove 24 to complete the locking and fixing of the end cover 2, thereby preventing the end cover 2 from loosening and making the connection more stable.

[0022] In this embodiment, one of the half shells 1 is provided with a screw seat 16, and the bottom cover 21 is fixedly connected to the screw seat 16 by screws to prevent the bottom cover 21 from loosening from the half shell 1. The entire hair dryer only needs two screws to complete the fastening connection of the shell, which has high reliability.

[0023] In this embodiment, a snap-fit hook 17 is provided on the inner wall of one half shell 1, and a snap-fit hole 18 is provided on the inner wall of the other half shell 1. When the two half shells 1 are aligned, the snap-fit hook 17 is automatically embedded in the snap-fit hole 18, which makes assembly simple and quick, and further improves the connection tightness between the two half shells 1, and is highly practical.

[0024] In this embodiment, the fan 3 includes a motor 31 electrically connected to the control board 12, a turbofan 32 fixed to the main shaft of the motor 31, and a heat dissipation and ventilation sleeve 33 fixed to the outer wall of the motor 31. The outer wall of the heat dissipation and ventilation sleeve 33 is covered with a shock-absorbing sleeve 34, and the shock-absorbing sleeve 34 is fixed to the upper part of the T-shaped shell. Specifically, the upper inner wall of the half shell 1 is provided with a plurality of semi-circular radial strips 19. When the two half shells 1 are matched, the shock-absorbing sleeve 34 is clamped and fixed by the semi-circular radial strips 19 respectively located on the two half shells 1. When the two half shells 1 are matched, the fan 3 and the power supply device 11 are simultaneously embedded and fixed. The assembly process is simple and quick. The assembly difficulty of the motor 31, the heat dissipation and ventilation sleeve 33 and the shock-absorbing sleeve 34 is low, the assembly process is small, and the production efficiency is significantly improved.

[0025] In this embodiment, two semi-circular axial stop bars 10 are provided on the upper inner wall of the half shell 1. The inner diameter of the semi-circular axial stop bar 10 is smaller than the outer diameter of the shock-absorbing sleeve 34. When the two half shells 1 are matched, the end of the shock-absorbing sleeve 34 abuts against the semi-circular axial stop bar 10, thereby realizing axial fixation of the fan 3. No additional assembly steps are required during the assembly process, and the assembly efficiency is further improved.

[0026] In this embodiment, a screen or sieve 4 is provided between the semi-circular axial stop bar 10 and the end cover 2, which prevents the air inlet end from sucking in foreign matter and causing damage to the air duct during use, and has high safety and reliability.
