[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 An embodiment of the utility model provides a humidifying heater, comprising a casing 1, a heater assembly 2 and a humidifying assembly 3; a horizontally arranged partition 11 is provided in the inner cavity of the casing 1, and the partition 11 divides the inner cavity of the casing 1 into an upper mounting cavity 12 and a lower mounting cavity 13 distributed up and down; the heater assembly 2 is arranged in the lower mounting cavity 13; the humidifying assembly 3 is arranged in the upper mounting cavity 12.

[0029] In this embodiment, a heater assembly 2 is provided in the lower mounting cavity 13 of the housing 1 to provide hot air to the surrounding environment, thereby achieving an indoor heating function; and a humidifier assembly 3 is provided in the upper mounting cavity 12 of the housing 1 to provide water mist to the surrounding environment, thereby achieving an indoor humidification function. That is, the humidifying heater can provide not only an indoor heating function but also an indoor humidification function, thereby enriching the heater's functions and meeting the diverse needs of users, thereby improving the user experience. In addition, humidification can be performed while the room is being heated. For example, while the heater assembly 2 is withdrawn from the housing 1 to expose the warm air outlet 211 and supply air, the humidifier assembly 3 is turned on to provide water mist, thereby increasing the indoor humidity and avoiding user discomfort caused by excessively dry air due to hot air, further improving the user experience. In addition, by setting a partition 11 in the inner cavity of the casing 1 to separate the upper installation cavity 12 and the lower installation cavity 13, relative isolation between the upper installation cavity 12 and the lower installation cavity 13 can be achieved, thereby preventing the moisture in the humidification component 3 from directly contacting the warm air component 2, causing it to vaporize into high-temperature steam when heated, thereby increasing the risk of burns.

[0030] Alternatively, see Figure 3The housing 1 is cylindrical and has a cylindrical inner cavity with openings at both ends. The partition 11 is disposed within the cylindrical inner cavity to separate the inner cavity into an upper mounting cavity 12 with an upper opening and a lower mounting cavity 13 with a lower opening. The overall cylindrical shape of the housing 1 makes the humidifying fan heater relatively compact, minimizing the space occupied by the room and improving indoor space utilization.

[0031] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The humidifying assembly 3 includes a water storage cylinder 31 and a mist outlet head 32 connected to the upper end of the water storage cylinder 31; the water storage cylinder 31 is accommodated inside the upper mounting cavity 12; the side of the mist outlet head 32 is detachably connected to the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12, and the upper end surface of the mist outlet head 32 protrudes from the upper opening of the upper mounting cavity 12.

[0032] Specifically, the mist outlet head 32 may be provided with components such as an atomizer and a fan. The atomizer atomizes the water stored in the water storage cylinder 31 into mist, and the fan blows the mist into the room to provide mist to the surrounding environment. It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific connection method between the water storage cylinder 31 and the mist outlet head 32. For example, the water storage cylinder 31 and the mist outlet head 32 can be connected via a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0033] In this embodiment, the side of the mist outlet head 32 is detachably connected to the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12. In this way, when the water storage cylinder 31 is short of water, the humidifying component 3 can be removed from the upper mounting cavity 12 to facilitate timely replenishment of water to the water storage cylinder 31 and ensure the normal operation of the humidifying component 3.

[0034] Optionally, an external thread circumferentially arranged around the mist outlet head 32 is formed on the side of the mist outlet head 32; and an internal thread matching the shape of the external thread is formed on the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12.

[0035] It should be noted that by providing an external thread on the side of the mist outlet head 32 and an internal thread on the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12, the external thread and the internal thread are threadedly matched with each other to achieve a detachable connection between the side of the mist outlet head 32 and the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12.

[0036] In this embodiment, the side of the mist outlet head 32 is connected to the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12 by means of threaded fitting, and a water storage cylinder 31 is provided at the lower end of the mist outlet head 32. In this way, the water storage cylinder 31 after storing water has a large weight, which can make the mist outlet head 32 have a tendency to sink, thereby driving the external thread to sink, and making the tooth side surface of the external thread and the tooth side surface of the internal thread fit more closely, so that the side of the mist outlet head 32 is more firmly connected to the wall of the upper mounting cavity 12, and the humidification component 3 is not easy to loosen relative to the casing 1.

[0037] Alternatively, see Figure 2 The upper end surface of the mist outlet head 32 has four strip-shaped mist outlets 321, two of which extend along a first direction, and the other two extend along a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0038] Specifically, the first direction and the second direction may be any two directions perpendicular to each other in a horizontal plane. For example, the first direction is the X-axis direction, and the second direction is the Y-axis direction.

[0039] In this embodiment, the four mist outlets 321 discharge air in the first direction and the second direction respectively, and the air outlet angles are more diverse, which is beneficial to improving the humidification effect.

[0040] Alternatively, see Figure 2 The four mist outlets 321 form a cross-shaped structure; a breathing light 322 is provided on the upper end surface of the mist outlet head 32, and the breathing light 322 is located in the middle of the cross-shaped structure.

[0041] In this embodiment, the breathing light 322 located in the middle of the cross-shaped structure can flash when the humidifying component 3 is working. When the user forgets to turn off the humidifying component 3 at night, it can remind the user in time to prevent the humidifying component 3 from affecting the user's health due to long-term use.

[0042] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The warm air assembly 2 includes a warm air body 21, and a warm air outlet 211 is provided on the side of the warm air body 21. The warm air body 21 is accommodated in the interior of the lower mounting cavity 13 and can move up and down relative to the lower mounting cavity 13 so that the warm air outlet 211 leaves or enters the lower mounting cavity 13.

[0043] Specifically, components such as a heating wire and a fan may be provided in the heater body 21 . The heating wire heats the air, and the fan blows the hot air into the room to provide hot air to the surrounding environment.

[0044] It can be understood that the heater body 21 is accommodated inside the lower mounting cavity 13 and can move up and down relative to the lower mounting cavity 13. In this way, when the casing 1 is lifted upward relative to the heater body 21 until the warm air outlet 211 leaves the lower mounting cavity 13, the warm air outlet 211 is exposed in the lower mounting cavity 13, and the heater body 21 can blow hot air into the room through the warm air outlet 211; when the casing 1 is lowered relative to the heater body 21 until the warm air outlet 211 enters the lower mounting cavity 13, the warm air outlet 211 is hidden in the lower mounting cavity 13, and the heater body 21 cannot blow hot air into the room through the warm air outlet 211.

[0045] In this embodiment, the heater body 21 can move up and down relative to the lower mounting cavity 13. Thus, when the user does not need heating but only needs air humidification, the heater body 21 can be driven to move relative to the lower mounting cavity 13, so that the heater outlet 211 enters the lower mounting cavity 13, thereby preventing the heater outlet 211 from being exposed to the outside world, causing a large amount of water mist generated by humidification to enter the interior of the heater component 2 and cause damage.

[0046] Alternatively, see Figure 5 The side of the heater body 21 is provided with a sliding groove 212 extending up and down; the wall of the lower installation cavity 13 is provided with a rib 131 that slides with the sliding groove 212.

[0047] Specifically, four chutes 212 can be provided, and the four chutes 212 are sequentially spaced along the circumference of the heater body 21 . Four ribs 131 can also be provided, and the four ribs 131 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the four chutes 212 .

[0048] In this embodiment, a slide groove 212 is provided on the side of the heater body 21, and a rib 131 is provided on the wall of the lower mounting cavity 13. In this way, when the heater body 21 moves up and down relative to the lower mounting cavity 13, the slide groove 212 and the rib 131 also slide relative to each other, which can guide the relative movement of the heater body 21 and the lower mounting cavity 13, making the lifting or lowering of the casing 1 more stable and smooth.

[0049] Optionally, a card slot is provided on the side of the heater body 21; and an elastic card buckle is provided on the wall of the lower mounting cavity 13, and the elastic card buckle is used to engage with the card slot when the warm air outlet 211 leaves the lower mounting cavity 13, so that the casing 1 and the heater body 21 are relatively fixed.

[0050] It can be understood that when the casing 1 is lifted upward relative to the heater body 21 until the warm air outlet 211 leaves the lower mounting cavity 13, the elastic clip is just locked in the slot. At this time, the engagement of the elastic clip and the slot can support the casing 1 and the humidifying component 3 from falling, so that the casing 1 and the heater body 21 are fixed so that the warm air outlet 211 can blow hot air stably. If the hot air needs to be stopped later, the humidifying component 3 can be pressed to drive the elastic clip out of the slot. At this time, the casing 1 and the heater body 21 can move relative to each other.

[0051] In this embodiment, the snap-fitting action of the snap slot and the elastic snap buckle can ensure that the warm air outlet 211 is stably exposed, thereby facilitating continuous and stable blowing of hot air.

[0052] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 4The heater assembly 2 also includes a base 22 connected to the lower end of the heater body 21. The horizontal projection area of ​​the base 22 is larger than the horizontal projection area of ​​the heater body 21. The upper end surface of the base 22 is used to abut against the lower end of the casing 1 when the warm air outlet 211 enters the lower mounting cavity 13, so that the casing 1 and the heater body 21 are relatively fixed.

[0053] It can be understood that due to the setting of the base 22, when the casing 1 is lowered relative to the heater body 21 until the heater outlet 211 enters the lower mounting cavity 13, the lower end of the casing 1 is just in contact with the base 22, and the base 22 can support the casing 1 and limit the casing 1.

[0054] In this embodiment, the supporting and limiting functions of the base 22 can effectively support and limit the casing 1, so that the entire humidifying heater can be firmly placed on the ground or platform, ensuring the overall structural stability and safety of the humidifying heater.

[0055] Alternatively, see Figure 3 The peripheral side of the partition 11 is sealed to the inner wall of the casing 1 .

[0056] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the implementation method of the sealed connection. Preferably, the partition 11 and the housing 1 are integrally formed.

[0057] In this embodiment, by sealing the peripheral side of the partition 11 to the inner wall of the casing 1, the spatial isolation effect between the upper installation cavity 12 and the lower installation cavity 13 can be further improved, thereby further reducing the risk of burns caused by direct contact between the moisture in the humidification component 3 and the warm air component 2.

[0058] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
