[0005] In some embodiments of this application, the air assembly includes a heating structure and a fan, wherein the heating structure is used to heat the airflow generated by the fan.

[0006] The sterilizer provided in this application includes a heating unit and a support assembly. The support assembly is disposed on the base, and the steam generated by the water tank and the airflow generated by the air assembly can both enter the support assembly.

[0007] In some embodiments of this application, the support assembly is detachably disposed on the base.

[0008] In some embodiments of this application, the support assembly includes at least two load-bearing supports arranged in layers.

[0009] In some embodiments of this application, at least one of the carrier supports is provided with a bottle support column, the bottle support column being used to invert the bottle onto the carrier support and the bottle mouth being fitted onto the outer side of the bottle support column, the bottle support column being hollow to form a channel through both ends.

[0010] The bottle warmer provided in this application includes a heating unit and a bottle warming bracket. The bottle warming bracket is disposed on the base, and the steam generated by the water tank and the airflow generated by the wind component can both enter the bottle warming bracket.

[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the milk warmer is detachably mounted on the base.

[0012] The bottle warmer provided in this application includes a bottle warming stand and a heating unit. The heating unit includes a base and a fan assembly. The bottle warming stand is disposed in the base, and the fan assembly is disposed in the base. The fan assembly includes a heating structure and a fan.

[0033] This application relates to a heating element 1000, which includes a base 1100 and a heating element 1200. The base 1100 is provided with a water tank 1101, and the heating element 1200 is disposed in the base 1100. It is understood that the user fills the water tank 1101 with an appropriate amount of water, and the heating element 1200 is used to heat the water tank 1101 to generate steam, which is used for sterilization or warming milk.

[0034] Furthermore, the heating unit 1000 includes a fan assembly disposed in a base 1100. The base 1100 is provided with an air outlet 1102, and at least one air outlet 1102 is provided. The airflow generated by the fan assembly is delivered from the air outlet 1102. It is understood that the fan assembly includes a fan 1301.

[0035] In some examples, the air assembly includes an air duct 1302, one end of which is connected to a fan 1301, and the other end of which is connected to an air outlet 1102.

[0036] It should be noted that the base 1100 has an internal cavity, and the heating element 1200 and the air element are both located in the cavity of the base 1100. The air outlet 1102 is connected to the inner cavity of the base 1100. The water tank 1101 is located on the upper part of the base 1100, and the heating element 1200 is located on the lower side of the water tank 1101.

[0037] In some embodiments, the air outlet 1102 is located on the side wall of the base 1100 at the water tank 1101, where the liquid level in the water tank 1101 is lower than the position of the air outlet 1102. The airflow generated by the air assembly accelerates the flow of steam above the water tank 1101, improving the efficiency of sterilizing baby bottles or warming milk.

[0038] Regarding the setting of the air outlet 1102, at least one alternative design is that the air outlet 1102 is located on the top of the base 1100.

[0039] In some embodiments, the base 1100 is provided with an air inlet located at the bottom of the base 1100.

[0040] To maintain the cleanliness of the incoming air, the base 1100 is equipped with a filter structure at the air inlet. Specifically, the filter structure includes filter cotton.

[0041] In some embodiments, the air assembly includes a heating structure 1303 for heating the airflow generated by the fan 1301, the hot airflow being used for drying or for warming milk in a hot air manner.

[0042] Understandably, when the air assembly blows hot air, the fan 1301 and the heating structure 1303 work simultaneously. When the air assembly blows cold air, the fan 1301 works, but the heating structure 1303 does not work.

[0043] In some examples, after the milk is steam-warmed, the heating element 1200 stops working, the fan 1301 starts working, the heating structure 1303 stops working, the fan component generates cold air, the cold air disperses the steam gathered in the milk warming bracket 3000, and the cold air can appropriately reduce the temperature of the milk to prevent it from overheating.

[0044] In some examples, the heating structure 1303 heats the airflow by means of resistance heating. Specifically, the heating structure 1303 includes a heating wire, a heating plate, or a heating rod.

[0045] In some examples, the heating element 1200 heats the water tank 1101 by means of resistance heating. Specifically, the heating element 1200 includes a heating wire, a heating plate, or a heating rod.

[0046] In some embodiments, the heating unit 1000 includes a switch control component disposed on the surface of the base 1100.

[0047] Specifically, the switch control assembly includes at least one switch knob. Furthermore, the switch control assembly also includes a circuit board, to which the switch knob, heating element 1200, and fan element are electrically connected to achieve current or signal transmission.

[0048] Regarding the switch control component, at least the following alternative embodiments exist.

[0049] In some alternative embodiments, the switch control component includes at least one switch button.

[0050] In some alternative embodiments, the switch control component includes a touch screen.

[0051] This application relates to a sterilizer, which includes a heating element 1000 and a support assembly 2000. The structure of the heating element 1000 is as described above. The support assembly 2000 is disposed on a base 1100 and is located on the upper side of the base 1100. The air outlet 1102 of the base 1100 connects to the interior of the support assembly 2000, allowing both the steam generated by the water tank 1101 and the airflow generated by the air assembly to enter the support assembly 2000.

[0052] Understandably, the baby bottle is placed in the support assembly 2000, and the heating unit 1000 sterilizes the bottle and nipple with steam and dries them with airflow generated by the fan assembly. Specifically, the heating unit 1000 first sterilizes the bottle with steam and then dries the bottle and nipple.

[0053] Furthermore, if the air assembly can generate hot air, the bottles and nipples can be dried with hot air, thus improving efficiency.

[0054] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2000 includes a carrier support on which the baby bottle and nipple are placed for sterilization and drying.

[0055] Specifically, the support includes a bottom support and enclosing sidewalls, with the sidewalls positioned on the upper side of the bottom support. The support is formed as a hollow cylindrical structure to hold bottles or nipples. The bottom support is configured as a support plate, and may have openwork areas or a mesh to allow steam and airflow to rise into the support.

[0056] In some examples, there are at least two support shelves arranged in layers, with bottles and nipples placed on different shelves. In this case, the lower end of the side wall of the upper support shelf is connected to the upper end of the side wall of the lower support shelf.

[0057] Furthermore, adjacent shelves are detachably connected to each other for easy access to nipples or bottles. Specifically, the side walls of adjacent shelves are connected by a plug-in or snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0058] In some examples, the sterilizer includes a first top cover 2200, which is disposed on top of the support assembly 2000 and is removable from the top of the support assembly 2000. It is understood that the first top cover 2200 is disposed on top of the uppermost support, and removing the first top cover 2200 allows for the placement or removal of nipples or bottles.

[0059] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2000 is detachably disposed on the base 1100 so that the support assembly 2000 can be removed from the upper side of the base 1100 to pour water into the water tank 1101.

[0060] Specifically, the lower end of the side wall of the lowest load-bearing bracket is inserted or snapped into the upper end of the side wall of the base 1100.

[0061] In some embodiments, two supports are provided, namely a first support 2101 and a second support 2102. The first support 2101 and the second support 2102 are arranged in layers on the upper side of the base 1100, with the second support 2102 located above the first support 2101. The baby bottle is placed on one of the first support 2101 and the second support 2102, and the nipple is placed on the other of the first support 2101 and the second support 2102.

[0062] Specifically, the first support 2101 includes a bottom support and enclosing sidewalls. The first support 2101 is formed as a hollow cylindrical structure to hold a baby bottle or nipple. The bottom support has a perforated area to allow steam and airflow to flow upward into the first support 2101. The second support 2102 includes a bottom support and enclosing sidewalls. The second support 2102 is formed as a hollow cylindrical structure to hold a baby bottle or nipple. The bottom support has a perforated area to allow steam and airflow to flow upward into the second support 2102.

[0063] Furthermore, the second bracket 2102 is detachably connected to the first bracket 2101. Specifically, the lower end of the side wall of the second bracket 2102 is inserted into or snapped into the upper end of the side wall of the first bracket 2101. It is understood that the second bracket 2102 is detachably connected to the first bracket 2101 so that the second bracket 2102 can be removed from the first bracket 2101 to facilitate the placement of the bottle or nipple into the first bracket 2101.

[0064] Regarding the bracket assembly 2000, at least the following alternative embodiments also exist.

[0065] In some alternative embodiments, the support bracket in the support assembly 2000 is configured as a single support, with both the nipple and the bottle disposed within the inner cavity of the support.

[0066] Furthermore, the storage bracket is detachably connected to the base 1100, and the bottom support in the storage bracket may be detachable or non-detachable. Alternatively, the storage bracket and the base 1100 are fixedly connected non-detachably, and the bottom support in the storage bracket is detachable. Alternatively, the side wall of the storage bracket is integrally formed with the side wall of the base 1100, and the bottom support in the storage bracket is detachable.

[0067] In other alternative embodiments, the support assembly 2000 includes at least two load-bearing supports, each of which is a support plate. Further, the support assembly 2000 includes a cylindrical tube connected to the base 1100, with each load-bearing support disposed within the cylindrical tube and arranged in layers.

[0068] Furthermore, at least one support is detachably connected to the inner wall of the cylindrical tube. In some examples, each support is detachable within the cylindrical tube. In other examples, the lowest support in the cylindrical tube is not detachable, while the remaining supports are detachable.

[0069] In some examples, the cylindrical tube and the base 1100 are fixedly connected in a non-detachable manner, or the cylindrical tube and the side wall of the base 1100 are integrally formed. In this case, by removing the support in the cylindrical tube, water can be poured into the water tank 1101 of the base 1100.

[0070] In other examples, the cylindrical tube is detachably connected to the base 1100, and the load holder may be detachable or non-detachable within the cylindrical tube.

[0071] In some embodiments, the support frame is provided with a bottle stand 2103, and at least one bottle stand 2103 is provided. The bottle stand 2103 is used to invert the bottle onto the support frame, with the bottle mouth fitted onto the outer side of the bottle stand 2103 to prevent the bottle from tipping over. A gap is left between the inner wall of the bottle mouth and the outer side of the bottle stand 2103.

[0072] Furthermore, the bottle stand 2103 is hollow, forming a channel that runs through both ends. The bottle stand 2103 forms a channel that runs vertically through the bottle, and the channel of the bottle stand 2103 connects the inside and outside of the support frame. It can be understood that when the bottle is inverted on the bottle stand 2103, steam or airflow enters the bottle through the channel of the bottle stand 2103.

[0073] It should be noted that when there are at least two storage racks, at least one of the storage racks is equipped with a bottle support column 2103.

[0074] This application relates to a bottle warmer, which includes a heating element 1000 and a bottle warming support 3000. The structure of the heating element 1000 is as described above. The bottle warming support 3000 is disposed on a base 1100 and is located on the upper side of the base 1100. The air outlet 1102 of the base 1100 is connected to the interior of the bottle warming support 3000, and the steam generated by the water tank 1101 and the airflow generated by the air assembly can both enter the bottle warming support 3000.

[0075] Understandably, during the steam warming process, steam accumulates in the milk warmer 3000, which may cause the milk to become too hot and unsuitable for consumption. The fan component generates airflow with natural cool air, which can quickly disperse the steam accumulated in the milk warmer 3000, thereby cooling the milk, preventing it from becoming too hot, maintaining a constant milk temperature, and preventing the milk from overheating.

[0076] Furthermore, when the fan assembly has a heating structure 1303, the fan 1301 of the fan assembly is activated while the heating structure 1303 is not working. The fan assembly then generates airflow using natural cool air to disperse the steam in the milk warming holder 3000, preventing the milk from overheating. On the other hand, if the user does not remove the warm bottle in time, the heating structure 1303 of the fan assembly operates intermittently, switching on and off to alternately blow cool or hot air, thus maintaining a constant milk temperature. Alternatively, if the user does not remove the warm bottle in time, the heating structure 1303 of the fan assembly continues to operate, and the fan assembly continuously generates hot air, thus maintaining a constant milk temperature.

[0077] It should be noted that when the fan assembly has a heating structure 1303, if the user does not turn on the heating component 1200 of the heating host 1000, but instead turns on the heating structure 1303 of the fan assembly, hot air can be used to warm milk.

[0078] In some embodiments, the milk warmer 3000 is detachably mounted on the upper side of the base 1100 so that the milk warmer 3000 can be removed from the base 1100 and water can be poured into the sink 1101.

[0079] Specifically, the lower end of the side wall of the milk warmer 3000 is inserted into or snapped into the upper end of the side wall of the base 1100.

[0080] In some embodiments, the bottle warmer 3000 is provided with a receiving chamber 3100 in which the bottle is placed.

[0081] Furthermore, at least one of the side walls and bottom walls of the receiving chamber 3100 is provided with a perforated area or a mesh through hole for warming milk.

[0082] In some embodiments, the bottle warmer includes a temperature sensor disposed in the bottle warmer holder 3000, the temperature sensor being used to monitor the temperature within the bottle warmer holder.

[0083] In some examples, the bottle warmer includes a second top cover that is disposed on top of the bottle warmer holder 3000 and is removable from the top of the bottle warmer holder 3000 to allow the bottle to be removed from the bottle warmer holder.

[0084] Regarding the temperature sensor placement, at least one alternative design is available: the temperature sensor is located on the second top cover.

[0085] This application relates to a sterilizer, which includes a heating element 1000, a support assembly 2000, and a milk warming bracket 3000. The structure of the heating element 1000, the support assembly 2000, and the milk warming bracket 3000 are as described above. Furthermore, the support assembly 2000 or the milk warming bracket 3000 can be detachably mounted on the heating element 1000.

[0086] It is understandable that, based on the above description of the heating unit 1000, the bracket assembly 2000, and the milk warming bracket 3000, when the bracket assembly 2000 is detachably connected to the heating unit 1000 and the milk warming bracket 3000 is detachably connected to the heating unit 1000, the user can achieve multi-functional switching by replacing the bracket assembly 2000 or the milk warming assembly on the heating unit 1000.

[0087] It should be noted that the cold airflow generated by the air assembly has multiple functions. Specifically, the cold airflow is used to dry condensate and to disperse steam in the milk warmer 3000 or 2000 assembly.

[0088] In some embodiments, the air assembly can also generate a hot airflow, which has multiple functions. Specifically, the heated airflow can dry condensate, heat milk in the milk warmer 3000, and disperse steam in the milk warmer 3000 or the stylist assembly 2000.

[0089] This application relates to a bottle warmer, which includes a bottle warming bracket and a heating unit, with the bottle warming bracket disposed on the heating unit. Specifically, the heating unit includes a base and a fan assembly, with the fan assembly disposed in the base and the bottle warming bracket disposed on the base, located on the upper side of the base. The fan assembly is capable of generating hot air for warming the milk.

[0090] Furthermore, the air assembly includes a fan and a heating structure. The heating structure heats the airflow generated by the fan, thereby achieving hot air warming of the milk. It can be understood that during hot air warming of milk, the fan and the heating structure operate simultaneously, and the air assembly generates hot air.

[0091] In some examples, the heating structure heats the airflow using resistance heating. Specifically, the heating structure includes a heating wire, a heating plate, or a heating rod.

[0092] In some embodiments, the base has an interior cavity, and the air assembly is disposed within the cavity of the base.

[0093] Furthermore, the side wall of the base has an air outlet that connects the inner cavity of the base to the inside of the milk warmer, allowing the airflow generated by the air assembly to enter the milk warmer.

[0094] In some embodiments, the bottle warmer includes a temperature sensor disposed on a bottle warmer holder, the temperature sensor being used to monitor the temperature within the bottle warmer holder.

[0095] Furthermore, the heating element, including a circuit board, a fan assembly, and a temperature sensor, is electrically connected to the circuit board to transmit current or signals. When the temperature in the milk warming bracket is higher than the set temperature, the fan assembly blows cool air. When the temperature in the milk warming bracket is lower than the set temperature, the fan assembly blows hot air, thus maintaining a constant milk temperature.

[0096] In some embodiments, the bottle warmer includes a second top cover disposed on top of the bottle warmer holder, the second top cover being removable from the top of the bottle warmer holder to allow removal of the bottle from the bottle warmer holder.

[0097] Regarding the temperature sensor placement, at least one alternative design is available: the temperature sensor is located on the second top cover.

[0098] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
