[0032] An air outlet panel, such as Figure 1 As shown, the panel body 100 includes a panel body 100 and an air outlet 101 provided on the panel body 100. In this embodiment, the panel body 100 is understood to be a plate-shaped component, and the specific shape of the panel body 100 is not limited. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the panel body 100 is rectangular. As an alternative embodiment, the cross-section of the panel body 100 is circular, square, or other polygonal.
[0033] The air outlet panel is applied to a hair dryer, and the air outlet 101 is the outlet of the hair dryer to deliver air outward. The user feels the air outside the air outlet panel. Therefore, from a general perspective, the side of the panel body 100 facing the air outlet direction is the front, and the side facing away from the air outlet direction is the back.
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a shielding portion 203 is provided on the panel body 100, and the shielding portion 203 has a first position for closing the air outlet 101 and a second position for opening the air outlet 101. There is no limitation on the specific structure of the shielding portion 203. In this embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is detachably connected to the panel body 100. For example, the shielding portion 203 is connected to the panel body 100 by a hinge and can be switched between the first position and the second position by rotation. As an alternative embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is connected to the panel body 100 by a slide rail or a slide groove and can slide along the slide rail or the slide groove to the first position and the second position. As an alternative embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is connected to the panel body 100 by a snap-fit structure and can switch positions by engaging and releasing the snap-fit. As an alternative embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is connected to the panel body 100 by a magnet and achieves position switching by magnetic attraction and removal. As an alternative embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is connected to the panel body 100 via a rotating shaft 202 , and the position thereof can be switched by rotating the rotating shaft 202 .
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, as a preference, the air outlet panel further includes a swinging air duct 200, which is rotatably connected to the panel body 100 and is provided on the shielding portion 203. The swinging air duct 200 swings relative to the panel body 100, thereby adjusting the air outlet state. Specifically, the panel body 100 has a thickness H, and the panel body 100 has a receiving cavity 102 connected to the air outlet 101. The swinging air duct 200 has a storage state in which it is rotated and stored in the receiving cavity 102, and an air outlet state in which at least a portion of the air outlet is rotated out of the receiving cavity 102. In the air outlet state, the outlet of the swinging air duct 200 is located outside the air outlet 101. In the storage state, the swinging air duct 200 is stored and hidden in the receiving cavity 102.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the swing air duct 200 is in the stowed state, the shielding portion 203 is exactly in the first position. When in the first position, the shielding portion 203 is parallel to the panel body 100. Preferably, when in the first position, the shielding portion 203 is flush with the panel body 100, with the surfaces of the two being on the same plane, forming a smooth outlet panel.
[0037] In an embodiment, the thickness of the air outlet panel can be formed by thickening the panel body 100 or adding a second layer plate 103 on the lower side of the panel body 100. The second layer plate 103 can be integrally connected to the panel body 100 or detachably connected to the panel body 100.
[0038] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, there is no limitation on the specific structure of the swinging air duct 200. In this embodiment, the body of the swinging air duct 200 occupies a certain space and can rotate within the blowing port 101. The swinging air duct 200 has a first angle for rotating to close the blowing port 101 and a second angle for rotating to open the blowing port 101. The swinging air duct 200 is directly connected to the blowing port 101 via a rotating shaft 202. The rotating shaft 202 can be a separate shaft or a shaft integrally formed with the swinging air duct 200. The swinging function is achieved by rotating the rotating shaft 202. As an alternative embodiment, bearings, gears and other components can be added to the rotating shaft 202 for connection. The bearings can reduce friction. The gears can increase the control accuracy.
[0039] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the swinging air duct 200 includes an air inlet 204 and an air outlet 201. The air inlet 204 is located on the back side of the panel body 100, and the air outlet 201 is located on the front side of the panel body 100. A channel is formed between the air inlet 204 and the air outlet 201. When the swinging air duct 200 swings, the air inlet 204 and the air outlet 201 switch positions accordingly. Because the air outlet panel has a certain thickness, at one angle, the air inlet 204 and the air outlet 201 face the air outlet direction of the blowing port 101. This angle is the second angle that opens the blowing port 101. At another angle, the air inlet 204 and the air outlet 201 face the side wall of the blowing port 101. This angle is the first angle that closes the blowing port 101. A wind grille 205 is provided in the channel, and the wind grille 205 is suitable for dividing the area within the channel into independent sub-areas. When the air inlet 204 faces the air outlet direction, the wind grille 205 provides a certain degree of shielding, which makes the air look more beautiful from the user's perspective.
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the shielding portion 203 is located on the sidewall of the swing air duct 200, specifically, on the outer sidewall of the swing air duct 200. When the air inlet 204 and the air outlet 201 are facing the sidewalls of the blowing port 101, the shielding portion 203 faces the air outlet direction of the blowing port 101. When the shielding portion 203 is in the first position, that is, at an angle that closes the blowing port 101, the shielding portion 203 is flush with the surface of the panel body 100.
[0041] On the basis of the above embodiment, as a further limited embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the accommodating cavity 102 has at least one inclined wind guide surface 103. The panel body 100 is provided with a wind guide plate 104, and the wind guide surface 103 is located on the wind guide plate 104. The wind guide plate 102 is located upstream of the air outlet 101. Figure 3From a viewing angle, the air guide plate 102 is located on the back of the panel body 100. In this embodiment, at least one air guide plate 102 is provided for each air outlet 101. Depending on the air duct structure of the adapted air blowing device, the air guide plate 102 can better adapt to different air ducts and effectively expand the air inlet area.
[0042] Furthermore, the panel body 100 of this embodiment has a certain thickness, or has a second layer 103 , the air guide plate 102 extends to the second layer 103 , and the extended end of the air guide plate 102 is flush with the second layer 103 or protrudes from the surface of the second layer 103 .
[0043] On the basis of the above embodiment, as a further limited embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air outlet 101 is provided along the length direction of the panel body 100. As an alternative embodiment, the air outlet 101 is provided along the width direction of the panel body 100. Furthermore, there are multiple air outlets 101, preferably two, respectively arranged on both sides of the panel body 100. Preferably, the two sides are both sides in the width direction of the panel body 100.
[0044] Based on the above embodiment, as a further limited embodiment, a human body sensor and a controller are further included. The swinging air duct 200 is controlled by the controller, which receives the position signal from the human body sensor and rotates the swinging air duct 200. In combination with the human body sensor, the airflow direction is adjusted according to the position of the person. By detecting the person's position in real time and adjusting the airflow direction, a more comfortable experience is provided. Airflow is personalized according to the position and needs of different users, meeting the comfort needs of different users.
[0045] The specific application scenarios and application methods of the air outlet panel of the above embodiment are not specifically limited. This embodiment also provides a blowing device with the above air outlet panel.
