Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air duct structure, specifically an air duct structure adapted to hair dryers and handheld fans. Background Technology

[0002] In modern life, hair dryers and handheld fans are widely used small electrical appliances. Hair dryers are mainly used to quickly dry hair, achieving this through the combined action of heating elements and airflow. Their airflow design plays a crucial role in airflow speed, temperature distribution, and drying effect. Traditional hair dryer airflow structures are often designed for specific motor power, heating power, and usage scenarios, thus having some limitations. For example, some hair dryer airflow is not concentrated enough, resulting in low drying efficiency and requiring a longer drying time, increasing the user's time cost.

[0003] Handheld fans are used to provide localized cooling in hot environments. The design of their air duct directly affects the airflow volume, wind speed, and delivery distance. Existing handheld fan air duct structures also have design shortcomings. For example, some handheld fan air ducts generate significant noise during operation due to turbulent airflow caused by an unreasonable duct structure. To address the aforementioned problems with the existing air duct structures of hair dryers and handheld fans, the applicant proposes an air duct structure adapted for both hair dryers and handheld fans. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air duct structure adapted to hair dryers and handheld fans, aiming to improve the problems of insufficient airflow concentration, short air delivery distance, and high noise in the existing air duct structures of hair dryers and handheld fans.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: an air duct structure adapted to hair dryers and handheld fans, comprising a bottom shell, a middle shell, an air guide seat, an air duct pipe, and an upper shell arranged sequentially along the exhaust direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting structure includes a locking block and a locking hole. The bottom shell and the top shell are only provided with locking holes, while the middle shell, the air guide seat, and the air duct are all provided with locking blocks and locking holes.

[0013] Furthermore, the clamping block of the air duct includes an elastic plate portion and a clamping head. The length direction of the elastic plate portion is along the exhaust direction. The end of the elastic plate portion near the air guide seat is connected to the main structure of the air duct. The end of the elastic plate portion away from the air guide seat is suspended.

[0026] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides further details:

[0028] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an air duct structure adapted for hair dryers and handheld fans includes a bottom shell 1, a middle shell 2, an air guide seat 3, an air duct 4, and an upper shell 5 arranged sequentially along the exhaust direction. The middle shell 2 is simultaneously snapped into the bottom shell 1 and the air guide seat 3. The air guide seat 3 is also snapped into the air duct 4, and the air duct 4 is also snapped into the upper shell 5. The snap-fit ​​connection structure includes locking blocks and locking holes. The bottom shell 1 and the upper shell 5 only have locking holes, while the middle shell 2, the air guide seat 3, and the air duct 4 all have locking blocks and locking holes. A fan 6 is mounted on the air guide seat 3. The fan 6 includes a motor and fan blades, with the fan blades connected to the motor's shaft. The bottom shell 1 is cylindrical, and multiple air inlet grilles 11 are evenly arranged along its circumference at its air inlet. The length direction of the air inlet grilles 11 is along the exhaust direction, and the air inlet grilles 11 have a protective function, preventing foreign objects from contacting the fan blades of the fan 6.

[0029] like Figures 3-5 As shown, the air guide base 3 is cylindrical, with multiple air guide grilles 7 evenly arranged along its circumference. The length of the air guide grilles 7 is along the exhaust direction, and the fan 6 is located on the side of the air guide grille 7 in the air intake direction. The exhaust air from the fan 6 passes through the air guide grilles 7, which have a concentrating effect and can also reduce wind noise during exhaust. A light panel 8 is installed on the air guide base 3, and LED beads 9 are installed on the light panel 8. The air guide base 3 is provided with a plug hole, into which a light-transmitting cover 10 for covering the light panel 8 and LED beads 9 is inserted. The LED beads 9 use different structures depending on the compatible machine. For example, when compatible with a hair dryer, LED beads 9 can use red LED beads with a wavelength of 655nm, which have a certain hair-smoothing effect and anti-hair loss function. When compatible with a handheld fan, LED beads 9 can be used for dust detection and lighting.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the air duct 4 has a bowl-shaped structure with openings at both ends. The diameter of the air inlet end of the air duct 4 is larger than the diameter of the air outlet end, which can effectively increase the air delivery distance. The clamping block of the air duct 4 includes an elastic plate part 13 and a clamping head 12. The length direction of the elastic plate part 13 is along the exhaust direction. The end of the elastic plate part 13 near the air guide seat 3 is connected to the main structure of the air duct 4, and the end of the elastic plate part 13 away from the air guide seat 3 is suspended. The clamping head 12 is disposed on the outer plate surface of the suspended end of the elastic plate part 13. Multiple guide strips 14 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the outer wall of the air duct 4. The inner wall of the upper shell 5 is provided with guide grooves that correspond one-to-one with each guide strip 14. When each guide strip 14 is inserted into the guide groove, the locking block of the air duct 4 also corresponds one-to-one with the locking hole of the upper shell 5. This facilitates the accurate assembly and disassembly of the air duct 4 and the upper shell 5, and makes most of the air duct 4 located in the upper shell 5, making the structure of this utility model more compact.

[0031] In summary, this utility model is equipped with an air guide seat 3, on which multiple air guide grilles 7 are evenly arranged along its circumference, giving the utility model an air-gathering effect and reducing wind noise during air output. This utility model also includes a bowl-shaped air duct 4, with the inlet diameter of the air duct 4 being larger than the outlet diameter, effectively increasing the air delivery distance of this utility model.

[0032] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
