[0029] In addition, it should also be noted that in the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the communication between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] As Figure 1As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a milk warmer, which comprises a milk warmer body 100 and a kettle body 200. The kettle body 200 is placed on the milk warmer body 100, and the milk warmer body 100 can heat the liquid contained in the kettle body 200. The kettle body 200 is used to contain the liquid to be heated, such as milk for a baby.

[0031] The kettle body 200 can be a glass kettle body, a ceramic kettle body or a stainless steel kettle body. The embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitation on this.

[0032] As shown, Figure 2 The milk warmer body 100 comprises a base 110 and a vertical part 120 connected with the base 110. The kettle body 200 can be placed on the base 110, and the base 110 is provided with a coupler capable of being electrically connected with the kettle body 200. The bottom of the kettle body 200 is provided with a heating body electrically connected with the coupler, which can heat the liquid contained in the kettle body 200 placed on the base 110.

[0033] As shown, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The vertical part 120 is vertically arranged on the base 110, and the vertical part 120 is provided with a ventilation hole 121 on the side wall opposite to the kettle body 200. The vertical part 120 is provided with a cooling fan 130, and the cooling fan 130 is arranged opposite to the side wall of the vertical part 120 provided with the ventilation hole 121. The wind blown by the cooling fan 130 can pass through the ventilation hole 121 arranged on the side wall of the vertical part 120 and blow on the kettle body 200 placed on the base 110, so as to quickly cool the liquid contained in the kettle body 200.

[0034] However, only a part of the wind blown from the cooling fan 130 can pass through the ventilation hole 121 arranged on the side wall of the vertical part 120 and reach the surface of the kettle body 200. Another part of the wind is bounced back by the closed part of the side wall of the vertical part 120 which is not provided with the ventilation hole 121, and diffuses in the vertical part 120, and cannot participate in the cooling of the kettle body 200.

[0035] As shown, Figure 3 and Figure 4 In order to improve the cooling effect of the wind blown by the cooling fan 130 on the kettle body 200, a wind guide bracket 140 is arranged between the cooling fan 130 and the side wall of the vertical part 120 provided with the ventilation hole 121, which is used to guide more wind blown by the cooling fan 130 to the surface of the kettle body 200 and participate in the cooling of the kettle body 200.

[0036] As shown, Figures 4 to 7As shown, the air guide bracket 140 includes an air guide port 141 disposed in the middle and an air guide section 142 disposed around the air guide port 141. The air guide port 141 is disposed opposite to the air outlet of the cooling fan 130, so that the air blown out from the air outlet of the cooling fan 130 can pass through the air guide port 141 and be transmitted to the vent hole 121 opened on the side wall of the vertical part 120. The air guide section 142 is disposed opposite to the vent hole 121 disposed on the side wall of the vertical part 120.

[0037] like Figures 2 to 8 As shown, after the cooling fan 130 starts, it blows air through its outlet to the side wall of the vertical part 120, where the ventilation holes 121 are provided. The air passes through the air guide port 141 of the air guide bracket 140 and reaches the side wall of the vertical part 120. Some of the air passes directly through the ventilation holes 121 opposite to the air guide port 141 and is blown onto the surface of the kettle body 200 to cool the kettle body 200. Some of the air, guided by the air guide section 142 adjacent to the air guide port 141, passes through the ventilation holes 121 opposite to the air guide section 142 and is blown onto the surface of the kettle body 200. Another portion of the air is blocked by the lack of ventilation holes 121 on the side wall of the vertical part 120, and bounces back towards the air guide 142 located around the air guide 141; after impacting the surface of the air guide 142 at high speed, it is bounced back again towards the ventilation holes 121 on the side wall of the vertical part 120, so that more air passes through the ventilation holes 121 and is blown to the surface of the kettle body 200 to cool the kettle body 200.

[0038] By installing an air guide bracket 140 between the cooling fan 130 and the vent 121 located on the side wall of the vertical section 120, the air guide portion 142 of the air guide bracket 140 can expand the range of the air blown by the cooling fan 130, and can also reflect back the air blocked by the side wall of the vertical section 120, thereby increasing the airflow reaching the surface of the kettle body 200 through the vent 121. Simultaneously, it also expands the area (area) of the air blown from the outlet of the cooling fan 130 acting on the side wall of the vertical section 120, further expanding the area (area) of the air blown through the vent 121 onto the surface of the kettle body 200, resulting in more uniform cooling of the kettle body 200. By simultaneously increasing the area and airflow of the air blowing onto the kettle body 200, the cooling rate of the liquid contained in the kettle body 200 can be significantly improved. Furthermore, the expansion of the airflow from the cooling fan 130 by the air guide bracket 140 can also reduce the noise of the cooling fan 130.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 As shown, in order to obtain a better air guiding effect, the air guiding part 142 can be set parallel to the area on the side wall of the vertical part 120 where the ventilation hole 121 is opened, so that after the air is reflected by the air guiding part 142, it can reach the kettle body 200 more smoothly through the ventilation hole 121.

[0040] As shown in Figure 8 , a plurality of air holes 121 are usually formed on the side wall of the vertical part 120 opposite to the kettle body 200. The size, shape, number and arrangement of the air holes 121 on the side wall of the vertical part 120 can be determined according to requirements, for example, the distance between the air holes 121, the range of arrangement of the air holes 121, etc. The arrangement of the air holes 121 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0041] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the projection area of the whole air guide bracket 140 on the side wall of the vertical part 120 where the air holes 121 are formed usually covers the area where the air holes 121 are formed on the side wall, so that the wind bounced to the air guide part 142 of the air guide bracket 140 can pass through the air holes 121 to the greatest extent after being bounced again by the air guide part 142. In addition, the arrangement of the air guide part 142 relative to the air guide opening 141 is determined according to the arrangement of the air holes 121 on the side wall of the vertical part 120, for example, two air guide parts 142 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the air guide opening 141; or two air guide parts 142 are symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower ends of the air guide opening 141. The arrangement of the air guide part 142 relative to the air guide opening 141 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0042] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 10 , a wind blocking part 143 extending to the side wall of the kettle body 200 is arranged on the edge of the air guide bracket 140, to block the wind bounced back by the side wall of the vertical part 120 from spreading out from the edge of the air guide bracket 140.

[0043] In addition, as shown in Figures 8 to 10 , a first clamping structure 145 is arranged on the end face of the air guide bracket 140 opposite to the side wall of the vertical part 120, and a corresponding second clamping structure 122 is arranged on the inner wall of the side wall of the vertical part 120; the air guide bracket 140 is connected to the side wall of the vertical part 120 through the cooperation of the first clamping structure 145 and the second clamping structure 122. The first clamping structure 145 can be a groove or a convex rib, and correspondingly the second clamping structure 122 can be a convex rib or a groove matched with the first clamping structure 145.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 to 10 ,As shown, the first snap-fit ​​structure 145 is a groove structure, and the second snap-fit ​​structure 122 is a corresponding rib structure. The second snap-fit ​​structure 122 is a closed rib structure provided on the inner wall of the side wall of the vertical part 120, and it surrounds all the vent holes 121 opened on the side wall of the vertical part 120. When the air guide bracket 140 is fixed on the inner wall of the side wall of the vertical part 120 by the first snap-fit ​​structure 145 (groove structure) and the second snap-fit ​​structure 122 (rib structure) provided on its end face opposite to the side wall of the vertical part 120, the air guide bracket 140 completely covers all the vent holes 121 opened on the side wall of the vertical part 120. This structure not only securely fixes the air guide bracket 140 to the vertical part 120, but also forms a relatively enclosed area through the cooling fan 130, the air guide bracket 140, and the ventilation hole 121 area provided on the side wall of the vertical part 120. This allows the air blown out by the cooling fan 130 to be retained within this enclosed area to the greatest extent. Furthermore, the guide part 142 of the air guide bracket 140 can maximize the airflow within this enclosed area through the ventilation hole 121 to reach the surface of the kettle body 200, thereby improving the cooling speed of the kettle body 200.

[0045] Furthermore, the air guide bracket 140 can be detachably connected to the cooling fan 130. Specifically, the air guide bracket 140 can be snapped into the cooling fan 130 (e.g., via a snap-fit ​​structure); or the air guide bracket 140 and the cooling fan 130 can be connected by fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, or bolts), allowing different types of air guide brackets 140 to be installed on the same type of cooling fan 130 as needed. For example, depending on the shape and size of the area of ​​the vent 121 on the side wall of the vertical section 120, air guide brackets 140 of different sizes and / or shapes can be installed on the cooling fan 130 to obtain different air guiding effects.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, to quickly and conveniently position the air guide bracket 140 and the cooling fan 130, the air guide bracket 140 has a positioning part 144 on its back side where it connects with the cooling fan 130. This positioning part 144 allows for quick and easy positioning and docking of the air guide bracket 140 and the cooling fan 130, followed by secure connection. In a specific embodiment, as shown... Figure 6 As shown, the positioning part 144 consists of two parallel protruding ribs on the back of the air guide bracket 140. The distance between these two protruding ribs is slightly smaller than the width of the cooling fan 130. Through the interference fit between these two protruding ribs and the two side walls of the cooling fan 130, the air guide bracket 140 is secured to the cooling fan 130. Then, the air guide bracket 140 and the cooling fan 130 are fixedly connected together through the connection structure between them.

[0047] Further, in order to cool the kettle 200 more quickly, the air vent 121 can be arranged such that its axis is not perpendicular to the side wall of the vertical portion 120, i.e., the air vent 121 is an inclined hole. The direction of the air vent 121 is controlled by controlling the angle between the axis of the air vent 121 and the side wall of the vertical portion 120, so that the wind reflected by the guide portion 142 can more smoothly pass through the air vent 121 in the form of an inclined hole, thereby enabling more wind to blow to the surface of the kettle 200 to cool the kettle 200.

[0048] According to needs, the air vent 121 in a certain area can be arranged such that its axis is perpendicular to the side wall of the vertical portion 120, and the air vent 121 in another area can be arranged such that its axis is not perpendicular to the side wall of the vertical portion 120. For example, for the air vent 121 opposite the air inlet 141 of the air guide bracket 140, the axis thereof can be arranged to be perpendicular to the side wall of the vertical portion 120 at this position, so that the wind blown by the heat dissipation fan 130 can smoothly pass through the air vent 121 (because the wind direction is parallel to the axis of the air vent 121) and blow to the surface of the kettle 200. For the air vent 121 opposite the edge of the guide portion 142 of the air guide bracket 140 (located away from the air inlet 141), the axis thereof can be arranged to be not perpendicular to the side wall of the vertical portion 120, so that the air vent 121 at this position is an inclined hole. This arrangement enables the wind reflected by the edge of the guide portion 142 to smoothly pass through the inclined hole (because the wind direction is parallel to the axis of the inclined hole).

[0049] Further, the milk frother according to the embodiments of the present application further comprises a temperature sensor and a control module (not shown in the drawings). The temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the surface of the kettle 200, and the control module is connected with the temperature sensor and the heat dissipation fan 130, respectively, and is used to control the operation of the heat dissipation fan 130 according to the temperature of the surface of the kettle 200 detected by the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor regularly collects the temperature of the surface of the kettle 200 (or the temperature of the liquid in the kettle 200) and sends the collected temperature to the control module. The control module controls the operation time and speed of the heat dissipation fan 130 according to the obtained temperature of the surface of the kettle 200 and the set target temperature.

[0050] For example, when the temperature of the surface of the kettle 200 collected by the temperature sensor is higher than the set target temperature, the control module starts the heat dissipation fan 130 to blow wind to cool the kettle 200. The control module can set / adjust the rotating speed of the heat dissipation fan 130 according to the cooling time length set by the user. When the temperature of the surface of the kettle 200 collected by the temperature sensor reaches the set target temperature, the control module controls the heat dissipation fan 130 to stop operating.

[0051] The technical scheme of the utility model has been described in combination with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but the person skilled in the art can easily understand that the protection scope of the utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. The person skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or replacements to the related technical features without deviating from the principles of the utility model, and the technical schemes after the changes or replacements will all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
