[0048] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a pet drying box, including an inner shell 1 and an outer shell 2. Figure 1 This is a 3D structural diagram of a pet drying box. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the pet drying box under the uncut airflow equalization plate 4 and the first side wall plate 12 for easy observation and understanding; the inner shell 1 forms a drying space 101, and an airflow channel 201 is formed between the inner shell 1 and the outer shell 2. The airflow channel 201 and the drying space 101 are connected to form a head-to-tail circulating channel; in the airflow channel 201, a centrifugal impeller 3 and an airflow equalization plate 4 are arranged sequentially along the gas flow direction, and air combing mesh holes 401 are evenly arranged on the airflow equalization plate 4.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 5 The arrows indicating the gas flow direction are for illustrative purposes only. The centrifugal impeller 3 and the airflow equalization plate 4 are arranged sequentially along the gas flow direction; therefore, the gas must flow through the airflow equalization plate 4 before entering the drying space 101. Because the airflow equalization plate 4 has evenly arranged combing mesh 401, the combing mesh 401 can regulate the airflow, thereby reducing the turbulence of the flowing air and making the gas flow direction and velocity more uniform. Therefore, the gas flowing into the drying space 101 through the airflow equalization plate 4 has lower turbulence, which helps to improve the uniformity of the airflow inside the drying space 101, providing pets with a better drying experience. Figure 6 It can more clearly show the structure of the airflow channel 201.

[0050] Optionally, the bottom wall of the inner shell 1 is composed of an air outlet bottom plate 11, on which several sets of air inlet holes 111 are arranged; the first side wall plate 12 of the inner shell 1 is provided with an air outlet hole 121, which faces the centrifugal impeller 3; the airflow equalization plate 4 is located on one side of the bottom of the air outlet bottom plate 11. Specifically, the airflow, driven by the centrifugal impeller 3, flows sequentially through the airflow equalization plate 4 and the air inlet hole group 111, then enters the drying space 101 to dry the pet, and then enters the air outlet hole 121 to flow towards the centrifugal impeller 3. In this embodiment of the pet drying box, the airflow can circulate to dry the pet.

[0051] Optionally, the airflow equalization plate 4 is vertically arranged; the airflow channel 201 is divided into a first air channel 2011 and a second air channel 2012 along the gas flow direction, and the airflow equalization plate 4 separates the first air channel 2011 and the second air channel 2012; in the second air channel 2012, the further away from the airflow equalization plate 4, the smaller the flow cross-sectional area of ​​the second air channel 2012. Specifically, the flow cross-sectional area of ​​the second air channel 2012 gradually decreases, so that the airflow can pass vertically upward through the air outlet bottom plate 11. This can avoid the airflow at the tail end of the air outlet bottom plate 11 that is far away from the airflow equalization plate 4 being too small, and can better equalize the airflow effect, thereby improving the drying uniformity of the drying space 101.

[0052] Optionally, a heater 5 for heating the gas is also installed in the airflow channel 201. The heater 5 is installed between the centrifugal impeller 3 and the airflow uniform plate 4. Generally, a temperature detector is provided in the drying space 101. The temperature detector and the heater 5 are electrically connected, so that the temperature of the drying space 101 can be maintained within a suitable range.

[0053] Generally, when the temperature of the drying space 101 is low, the heating power of the heater 5 is appropriately increased; when the temperature of the drying space 101 is high, the heating power of the heater 5 is appropriately reduced. It should also be noted that the heater 5 is positioned at the front end of the airflow uniform plate 4, which helps maintain the uniformity of the airflow passing through the rear end of the airflow uniform plate 4; obviously, the heater 5 is positioned at the rear end of the airflow uniform plate 4, and the heated airflow can further increase the degree of turbulence in the airflow.

[0054] Optionally, the outer casing 2 is provided with a fresh air inlet 202 facing the centrifugal impeller 3; the opening of the fresh air inlet 202 is directly opposite the air outlet 121, and the centrifugal impeller 3 is installed between the fresh air inlet 202 and the air outlet 121. Specifically, the fresh air inlet 202 can introduce fresh air into the airflow channel 201, thereby avoiding oxygen deficiency in the drying space 101 and improving the pet's drying experience.

[0055] Optionally, the centrifugal impeller 3 includes a hub 31, main blades, and auxiliary blades. The main blades are mounted on the first end face of the hub 31 and face the air outlet 121. The auxiliary blades are mounted on the first end face of the hub 31 and face the fresh air outlet 202. The main blades include a plurality of first blades 32 spaced apart along the circumference of the hub 31. The auxiliary blades include a plurality of second blades 33 spaced apart along the circumference of the hub 31. The length of the first blades 32 is greater than the length of the second blades 33. The number of first blades 32 and second blades 33 is greater than 3.

[0056] Specifically, when the centrifugal impeller 3 rotates, multiple second blades 33 rotate, thereby reducing the air pressure inside the hub 31, drawing in fresh air, and simultaneously drawing airflow from the drying space 101 into the centrifugal impeller 3 through the air outlet 121. Furthermore, since the length of the first blade 32 is greater than the length of the second blade 33, this reduces the amount of fresh air entering, preventing significant temperature drops and increasing the stability of the drying space 101.

[0057] Optionally, the housing 2 is also equipped with a rotary drive device 6 for driving the centrifugal impeller 3 to rotate.

[0058] Optionally, a touch screen 7 is provided on the top of the housing 2, and the touch screen 7 controls the connected rotary drive device 6. Specifically, the user can input control commands on the touch screen 7, such as adopting different drying modes, drying time, and drying temperature.

[0059] Optionally, the first side wall panel 12 and the airflow equalization plate 4 are integrally formed, and the air outlet base plate 11 is located beside the first side wall panel 12; the first side wall panel 12 extends to form a first support portion for supporting the air outlet base plate 11. The integral formation of the first side wall panel 12 and the airflow equalization plate 4 makes installation easier.

[0060] Optionally, the inner shell 1 further includes a second side wall plate 13 disposed opposite to the first side wall plate 12; the second side wall plate 13 is provided with a second support portion for supporting the air outlet base plate 11. The air outlet base plate 11 is detachably installed on the inner shell 1.

[0061] It should also be noted that the second sidewall panel 13 also forms part of the outer shell 2.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this application, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. Any technical solutions that are based on the essential concept of this application and utilize the content described in the text and drawings of this application, resulting in equivalent structural or procedural substitutions or modifications, as well as the direct or indirect application of the technical solutions of the above embodiments to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of patent protection of this application.
