Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This solution relates to the field of ventilation device technology, and in particular to an adjustable air duct. Background Technology
[0002] As people's living standards improve, pet ownership is becoming increasingly common, and pet drying boxes, as a convenient and quick way to dry pet fur, are gaining popularity among pet owners. However, existing pet drying box air duct structures have many shortcomings. Most pet drying boxes use a fixed air duct design, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the pet's size, fur length, dryness level, and actual needs during the drying process. This results in uneven hot air distribution during the drying process, easily leading to some fur drying while others remain damp. This not only prolongs the drying time but may also make the pet uncomfortable or even cause burns due to localized overheating. Furthermore, drying boxes with fixed air duct structures have poor versatility when dealing with pets of different breeds and sizes, failing to meet diverse market demands.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of air duct structure for pet drying boxes to solve the above problems, improve the efficiency and safety of pet drying, and enhance the user experience. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this solution provides an adjustable air duct that can adjust the airflow direction according to the pet's specific condition and the drying process, thereby improving the quality and speed of pet drying and ensuring the pet's safety and comfort during the drying process.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this solution is: an adjustable air duct, including a fixing part externally connected to a drying box and an adjusting part internally hinged to it, the adjusting part driving the air outlet to change the air outlet direction.
[0006] Furthermore, the fixing part has an elliptical outline with rounded ends and a concave middle part, including a protruding buckle and a limiting hole.
[0007] Furthermore, the protruding buckles are evenly distributed on the outer edge of the fixing part and mutually limit their positioning with the slots on the dryer.
[0008] Furthermore, the limiting holes are located at both ends of the fixing part and the hinged adjustment part.
[0009] Furthermore, the adjustment part is a long strip structure with spherical protrusions at both ends, and several air outlets are evenly opened on its surface.
[0010] Furthermore, the adjusting part is provided with pivot pins and connecting plates at both ends.
[0011] Furthermore, the pivot pin and the limiting hole are hinged together, and the adjusting part drives the air outlet to rotate around the pivot pin.
[0012] Furthermore, a through hole is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate, which is used to connect to the adjustment component inside the drying oven, and the adjustment component controls the rotation of the adjustment part.
[0013] In summary, this solution has the following advantages:
[0014] The air duct provided in this solution can adjust the airflow direction within the duct according to the pet's specific condition and the drying process, improving the quality and speed of pet drying and ensuring the pet's safety and comfort during the drying process.

[0021] The present solution will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0022] Example 1:
[0023] An adjustable air duct, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes an adjusting part 2 that is movably connected within the fixing part 1.
[0024] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing part 1 serves to connect and fix, and has an elliptical outline with rounded ends and a concave middle part. Several protruding buckles 11 are evenly distributed on the outer edge. The protruding buckles 11 are limited on the dryer, and each end includes a limiting hole 12, in which an adjustment part 2 is hinged.
[0025] The buckle 11 and the slot on the dryer mutually limit each other. The buckle 11 can be in the shape of a hook, L, or T. The specific shape can be adjusted according to the slot of the drying box. This structure is easy to insert into the slot, but due to its hook shape, it is not easy to come out of the slot, thus ensuring the firmness of the connection.
[0026] refer to Figure 1-3 The adjusting part 2 is hinged to the fixed part 1 and is used to adjust the airflow direction within the air duct. It is a long strip structure with spherical protrusions at both ends. Several air outlets 21 are evenly distributed on the surface of the adjusting part 2. The airflow direction within the air duct is changed by adjusting the angle of the air outlets 21. A shaft pin 22 and a connecting plate 23 are provided at both ends of the adjusting part 2. The shaft pin 22 is hinged to a limiting hole 12, and the adjusting part 2 rotates around the shaft pin 22. A through hole 231 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 23. The through hole 231 is used to connect an adjusting component inside the drying chamber. The adjusting component can be a motor or a connecting rod. By rotating it electrically or manually, the angle of the air outlets 21 on the adjusting part 2 is changed, thus changing the airflow direction.
[0027] Further explanation based on its usage mechanism:
[0028] S1, Assemble the air duct structure
[0029] The pivot pin 22 is embedded in the limiting hole 12, and the adjusting part 2 and the fixing part 1 are hinged;
[0030] S2. The air duct structure is installed in the drying oven.
[0031] The through hole 231 at the bottom of the connecting plate 23 connects to the adjustment component inside the drying oven;
[0032] S3. Adjust the airflow direction at the duct outlet.
[0033] By rotating the adjustment unit 2 electrically or manually, the angle of the air outlet 21 can be changed, thereby changing the airflow direction.
[0034] In summary, the air duct provided in this application can adjust the airflow direction within the duct according to the specific condition of the pet and the drying process, thereby improving the quality and speed of pet drying and ensuring the safety and comfort of the pet during the drying process.
