[0027] Refer to Figure 1 、 2 As shown, the noise reduction structure of the air outlet of the hair dryer according to the embodiment of the present utility model includes a hair dryer housing 100. There is an air inlet duct 110 and an air outlet duct 120 communicated with the air inlet duct 110 in the hair dryer housing 100. A blower 200 for sending air towards the air outlet duct 120 is arranged in the air inlet duct 110. As Figure 3 、 4 shown, the air outlet duct 120 is annular, and an annular reflector 300 is arranged in the air outlet duct 120. As Figure 2 shown, the reflector 300 has a longitudinal section 310, the longitudinal section 310 is parallel to the left - right direction of the air outlet duct 120, and the right side of the longitudinal section 310 is arc - shaped.

[0028] As Figure 1 、 2 shown, a reflector 300 is arranged in the air outlet duct 120, and the side of the reflector 300 close to the blower 200 is arc - shaped. AsFigure 1 As shown in the noise path in

[0029] During operation, as Figure 1 、 2 shown, when the fan 200 starts, air enters the air inlet duct 110 and then is discharged from the air outlet duct 120. Among them, when passing through the air outlet duct 120, the air impacts the reflector 300, and the reflector 300 divides the air outlet duct 120 into two upper and lower ducts. After the air passes through the two ducts and then combines into one, the reflector 300 will not affect the air velocity and air pressure in the duct; and the noise generated by the fan 200 during operation impacts the reflector 300 and is reflected in different directions, so that part of the noise cannot be discharged outside the hair dryer housing 100, effectively blocking part of the noise of the fan 200 from overflowing outward.

[0030] Specifically, the air outlet duct 120 and the fan 200 are arranged in sequence along a straight line.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, the height H1 of the longitudinal section 310 first gradually increases and then gradually decreases in the air outlet direction of the air outlet duct 120 (the air outlet duct 120 discharges air to the left), making the noise reflection effect better and better guiding the flow of air. Specifically, the height H1 of the longitudinal section 310 gradually increases from the right end to the middle of the longitudinal section 310, and then gradually decreases from the middle to the left end of the longitudinal section 310.

[0032] In a further embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, the longitudinal section 310 is in the shape of a water droplet, making the noise reflection effect of the reflector 300 better.

[0033] In a further embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, the hair dryer housing 100 has an annular inner wall 121 and an annular outer wall 122. The outer wall 122 is located inside the inner wall 121, and the outer wall 122 and the inner wall 121 enclose the air outlet duct 120. The distance between the inner wall 121 and the outer wall 122 is defined as the cavity height H2. The air outlet duct 120 includes a first duct section 123 and a second duct section 124 located on the right side of the first duct section 123. The reflector 300 is located in the second duct section 124. The cavity height H2 at the second duct section 124 gradually decreases along the air outlet direction of the air outlet duct 120, so that the second duct section 124 is in the shape of a horn, making the reflector 300 better reflect noise and ensuring that the reflector 300 will not affect the air velocity and air pressure in the duct.

[0034] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, the cavity height H2 at the first air duct section 123 gradually increases along the air outlet direction of the air outlet duct 120, ensuring that the reflector 300 does not affect the air velocity and air pressure of the air duct.

[0035] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, the reflector 300 is located at the middle position between the inner wall 121 and the outer wall 122, and the maximum height H1 of the longitudinal section 310 is greater than or equal to the cavity height H2 at the left end 1241 of the second air duct section 124. When the user looks out at the air outlet duct 120 in the right direction, the line of sight is blocked by the reflector 300, so that the user cannot see the fan 200 or the heating element 400 from the air outlet duct 120. With such a setting, the reflector 300 can prevent the user from touching the internal structure of the hair dryer housing 100 with a slender metal object, thereby reducing potential safety hazards, and allowing the wind to blow out while part of the noise is reflected by the reflector 300.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 1 shown, the air inlet duct 110 is further provided with a heating element 400, and the heating element 400 is located between the air outlet duct 120 and the fan 200, enabling the hair dryer housing 100 to have the functions of blowing cold air and hot air.

[0037] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1 、 3 、4、5 shown, the hair dryer housing 100 includes an outer shell and a heating support member 130 provided inside the outer shell. The air outlet duct 120 is arranged on the heating support member 130, the heating element 400 is installed on the heating support member 130, and the reflector 300 is installed on the heating support member 130 through a bracket 320. The reflector 300 and the heating element 400 are jointly installed on the heating support member 130, which is convenient for installation.

[0038] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 3 shown, an installation groove 131 for snap - connecting with a nozzle accessory is provided at one end of the heating support member 130 away from the heating element 400. By providing the installation groove 131, the hair dryer housing 100 can be connected to different nozzle accessories, improving the applicability of the hair dryer.

[0039] In a further embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, both the inner wall 121 and the outer wall 122 are arc - shaped, enabling the air outlet duct 120 to have smooth air outlet.

[0040] In the description of this specification, the descriptions referring to terms such as "some embodiments" or "it is conceivable that" mean that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present utility model. In this specification, the schematic expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0041] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and purposes of the present utility model, and the scope of the present utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
