[0035] In the embodiment, the cold airflow can enter the air duct body 1 from the air inlet 11, and the hot airflow formed after being heated can flow out from the air outlet 12 for use by a user, and the circuit structure 3 is arranged on the second side of the wind guide 2, the circuit structure 3 and the air outlet 12 are separated by the wind guide 2, so that the temperature of the hot airflow can be prevented from radiating to the circuit structure 3 under the separation of the wind guide 2, and the cold airflow entering the air duct body 1 can flow to the circuit structure 3 under the action of the wind guide 2, the heat of the circuit structure 3 can be taken away when the cold airflow flows through the circuit structure 3, and the heat of the circuit structure 3 can be taken away from the air outlet 12. By the air duct structure 100, on the one hand, the temperature of the heating side can be prevented from being conducted to the circuit structure 3, and on the other hand, the heat of the circuit structure 3 can be taken away by airflow guidance, the temperature of the circuit structure 3 can be effectively reduced, the normal work of the circuit structure 3 can be ensured, and the service life of the air duct structure 100 can be prolonged.

[0036] Preferably, the air inlet 11 is arranged on the circumferential side of the air duct body 1, the air outlet 12 is formed on one end of the air duct body 1 along the axial direction, the wind guide 2 is arranged close to the air inlet 11, and the circuit structure 3 is not directly opposite to the air inlet 11, so as to prevent the excessive air volume from affecting the looseness of the components 32 on the circuit structure 3. In the embodiment, the end of the air duct body 1 provided with the air outlet 12 is defined as the front end, the air inlet 11 is arranged close to the rear end of the air duct body 1, the first side of the wind guide 2 is arranged towards the front, the second side of the wind guide 2 is arranged towards the rear, and at least part of the circuit structure 3 is arranged on the rear side of the wind guide 2. The following description about the orientation can be referred to.

[0037] For the circuit structure 3, the components 32 are arranged on the circuit board 31, and the circuit board 31 is arranged on the second side of the wind guide 2. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the circuit structure 3 comprises a circuit board 31 and a plurality of components 32 arranged on the circuit board 31. The circuit board 31 is flat and arranged behind the air guide 2. The circuit board 31 has two mounting surfaces for mounting the components 32. Each mounting surface extends along the radial direction of the air duct body 1. The components 32 with large heat generation are arranged on the front mounting surface of the circuit board 31, i.e., towards the air guide 2, so that the air flow can better flow through the components 32 with large heat generation and better take away the hot air flow, thereby better dissipating heat from the circuit structure 3.

[0038] Further, the circuit board 31 and the air inlet 11 are arranged in a staggered manner in the projection on the plane of the air inlet 11. That is, the circuit board 31 is not opposite to the air inlet 11, so that the cold air flow entering the air duct body 1 from the air inlet 11 is not directly blown towards the circuit board 31, thereby better preventing the components 32 on the circuit board 31 from loosening and ensuring the function of the circuit structure 3.

[0039] In combination with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the air guide 2 comprises an outer ring portion 21, an inner ring portion 22, and a connecting baffle 23 connecting the outer ring portion 21 and the inner ring portion 22. The outer ring portion 21 surrounds the outer periphery of the inner ring portion 22. Preferably, the outer ring portion 21 and the inner ring portion 22 are coaxially arranged with the air duct body 1. The connecting baffle 23 is connected to the rear ends of the outer ring portion 21 and the air ring portion, so as to be arranged close to the circuit board 31. The connecting baffle 23 is provided with air flow holes 232. The air flow entering the air duct body 1 from the air inlet 11 can pass through the air flow holes 232 and flow towards the circuit structure 3. The connecting baffle 23 is arranged on the rear side of the air inlet 11 to avoid the air flow directly flowing towards the circuit structure 3, so as to prevent the components 32 or the connecting wires from loosening. By arranging the air flow holes 232 on the connecting baffle 23, part of the cold air flow can pass through the air flow holes 232 and flow towards the circuit structure 3, thereby taking away the temperature at the circuit structure 3 by the cold air flow.

[0040] Preferably, the air flow holes 232 are provided in plurality. The air flow holes 232 are arranged in the region between the outer ring portion 21 and the inner ring portion 22, so that more air flow enters the circuit structure 3, thereby better dissipating heat.

[0041] Moreover, an air inlet gap is arranged at one side of the outer ring portion 21, which is in communication with at least part of the air inlet 11, so that the air flow can better enter between the outer ring portion 21 and the inner ring portion 22, and ensure that at least part of the air flow can enter the circuit structure 3 from the air passing hole 232 on the connecting baffle 23, so as to ensure the heat dissipation effect at the circuit structure 3.

[0042] It can be understood that, after flowing through the circuit structure 3, the cold air flow can directly flow towards the air outlet 12 to be discharged from the air duct structure 100, or the cold air flow can flow towards the direction of the air outlet 12 after flowing through the circuit structure 3 and then passing through the air guide 2. It is obvious that the latter does not need to additionally increase the channel for communication between the circuit structure 3 and the air outlet 12 in the air duct body 1, so that the internal layout of the air duct structure 100 is more compact and occupies less space. Specifically, the circuit board 31 is arranged close to the connecting baffle 23, and at least part of the components 32 are located on the inner side of the inner ring portion 22, so that the air flow can flow out from the inner side of the inner ring portion 22 after flowing through the circuit board 31.

[0043] In which, as shown in Figure 2 The over-air gap is formed between the connecting baffle 23 and the circuit board 31, the shape of the outer ring portion 21 matches the shape of the air duct body 1, the outer ring portion 21 is fitted and arranged on the inner side of the air duct body 1, the air flow from the first side of the air guide 2 enters the over-air gap after passing through the air passing hole 232, and flows towards the air outlet 12 through the inner side of the inner ring portion 22, so that the air flow can better flow along the axial direction of the air duct body 1.

[0044] Moreover, the air duct structure 100 further comprises a heating element 4 arranged in the air duct body 1, the heating element 4 is arranged at the first side of the air guide 2, the heating element 4 forms a heating channel therein, and the inner ring portion 22 is coaxially arranged with the heating channel. As shown in Figure 2 Figure 2 The dotted arrow in represents the direction of the air flow, part of the air flow entering the air duct body 1 from the air inlet 11 directly enters the heating channel of the heating element 4, and the other part of the air flow flows out from the inner ring portion 22 after flowing through the circuit structure 3, so as to also flow into the heating channel. Moreover, the temperature of the air flow flowing through the circuit structure 3 will rise by a part under the action of the heat generation of the circuit structure 3, and then when the air flow is heated by the heating element 4, the heating efficiency can be effectively improved.

[0045] ​In addition, a plurality of abutting portions 231 are arranged on the connecting baffle 23, the plurality of abutting portions 231 are located in the air passing gap and abut against the circuit board 31, so as to ensure the spacing between the circuit board 31 and the connecting baffle 23, and meanwhile, the strength of the circuit board 31 can be improved.

[0046] Furthermore, a plurality of mounting portions are arranged on the inner side of the inner ring portion 22, a plurality of matching portions are arranged on the circuit board 31, and the plurality of mounting portions and the plurality of matching portions are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The mounting portion can be a first mounting hole, the matching portion can be a second mounting hole, and the air duct structure 100 can further include a plurality of connecting members, such as screws, bolts or pins, which are arranged in one-to-one correspondence in the plurality of mounting portions and the plurality of matching portions, so as to connect and fix the circuit board 31 and the air guide member 2, ensure the reliable fixation of the circuit board 31, and improve the performance.

[0047] The utility model also provides a kind of blowing equipment 1000, combined Figure 1 And 2 As shown in the figure, the blowing equipment 1000 includes the above-mentioned air duct structure 100 and handle structure 200 connected with the air duct structure 100, wherein the handle structure 200 is arranged at the air inlet 11 of the air duct structure 100, a plurality of through holes 202 are arranged on the outer circumferential side of the handle structure 200, and a fan 201 can be arranged in the handle structure 200. The fan 201 is electrically connected with the circuit structure 3, and by working of the fan 201, external airflow can enter the handle structure 200 from the plurality of through holes 202 and flow towards the air inlet 11 through the air outlet end of the fan 201 to flow into the air duct main body 1.

[0048] Due to the connecting lead between the fan 201 and the circuit structure 3, the connecting baffle 23 of the air guide member 2 is arranged at the air inlet 11, so that the connecting lead can not pass through the air inlet 11, and the stability of the connecting lead can be avoided by airflow. Moreover, the airflow passes through the air passing hole 232 of the air guide member 2 to the circuit structure 3, and the circuit structure 3 is better cooled. Therefore, the blowing equipment 1000 not only has good working stability, but also has good cooling effect of the circuit structure 3, which can effectively improve the working time and save energy, and the hot air discharge is more efficient.
