[0030] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; 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; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] refer to Figures 1-7 The figure shows a hair dryer 100, including a main body 1 and a handle 2 connected to the main body 1. The handle 2 is equipped with a switch button, which allows the user to turn the hair dryer 100 on / off and adjust the wind speed and air temperature of the hair dryer 100.

[0032] To increase airflow, the hair dryer 100 of this application provides two independent fluid paths, each capable of delivering air independently. Specifically, the hair dryer 100 includes a first fluid path 3 and a second fluid path 4, both independent of each other. The first fluid path 3 includes a first air inlet 31, a first air outlet 32, and a first fluid channel 33 connecting the first air inlet 31 and the first air outlet 32. The second fluid path 4 includes a second air inlet 41, a second air outlet 42, and a second fluid channel 43 connecting the second air inlet 41 and the second air outlet 42. The first fluid channel 33 and the second fluid channel 43 are independent of each other. A first fan 5 is disposed within the first fluid channel 33, and the first fan 5 is located within the main body 1. A second fan 6 is disposed within the second fluid channel 43, and the second fan 6 is located within the handle 2. By placing one fan within the handle 2 and the other within the main body 1, the space of the hair dryer 100 can be fully utilized, making the structure of the hair dryer 100 more compact. A first heater 9 is installed in the first fluid channel 33, and a second heater 10 is installed in the second fluid channel 43. Both the first heater 9 and the second heater 10 are installed inside the main body 1. The first heater 9 is installed at the first air outlet 32, and the second heater 10 is installed at the second air outlet 42. In the vertical direction, the first heater 9 is installed above the second heater 10.

[0033] refer to Figures 3-4 To control the hair dryer 100, the hair dryer 100 also includes a first circuit board 7 and a second circuit board 8. The first circuit board 7 can be a power supply board, whose main function is to provide a stable power supply for electronic devices. It typically contains voltage conversion circuits that can convert the input voltage into the specific voltage required by the device. The design of the power supply board usually includes switching power supplies and coupling transformer power supplies, and features small size, light weight, and high efficiency. The second circuit board 8 can be a circuit board, which (also known as a printed circuit board, PCB) is mainly used for electrical connections and support for electronic components. It realizes the function of the circuit by printing conductive lines and mounting electronic components on an insulating substrate. The circuit board can be designed as a single-sided, double-sided, or multi-layer structure to meet different circuit design requirements. Users can control the fan and heater, etc., through the second circuit board 8.

[0034] refer to Figures 5-7The figure shows the specific structure of the hair dryer 100. The main body 1 includes an inner shell 11 and an outer shell 12 disposed around the outer periphery of the inner shell 11. The inner shell 11 includes a first inner shell 13, a second inner shell 14, and a front inner shell 15. The front inner shell 15 defines a first air outlet 32 ​​and a second air outlet 42. The first inner shell 13, the second inner shell 14, and the front inner shell 15 can be integrally molded. The first inner shell 13 and the second inner shell 14 are fastened together, and then the front inner shell 15 is installed in front of the first inner shell 13 and the second inner shell 14. The first inner shell 13 and the second inner shell 14, when fastened together, define a fluid channel. A portion of the first fluid channel 33 and a portion of the second fluid channel 43 are defined between the first inner shell 13 and the second inner shell 14. The first fluid channel 33 is disposed above the second fluid channel 43. The first fluid channel 33 penetrates the main body 1; that is, the first air inlet 31 is disposed at the rear of the main body 1, and the first air outlet 32 ​​is disposed at the front of the main body 1.

[0035] The main body shell 12 includes a front shell 16, a middle shell 17, and a rear shell 18, wherein the rear shell 18 defines a first air inlet 31. The middle shell 17 is generally molded. During installation, the installed main body inner shell 11 is first installed into the middle shell 17, and then the front shell 16 and the rear shell 18 are installed.

[0036] Since the second circuit board 8 has many heat-generating components, it generates a significant amount of heat, thus requiring heat dissipation. To improve the heat dissipation effect of the second circuit board 8, at least a portion of the second circuit board 8 is disposed within the second fluid channel 43; the first circuit board 7 is disposed above the first fan 5, and the second circuit board 8 is disposed below the second fan 6. By placing both circuit boards within the main body 1, and respectively above and below the first fan 5, space can be effectively saved.

[0037] A first mounting space is defined between the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12, and the first circuit board 7 is mounted within this first mounting space. Since the first circuit board 7 is a power supply board, it generates relatively little heat during operation and does not require separate cooling; therefore, the first circuit board 7 does not need to be placed within the first fluid channel 33. Placing the first circuit board 7 within the first fluid channel 33 would likely increase noise. To reduce noise, the first circuit board 7 is positioned outside the first fluid channel 33.

[0038] The handle 2 includes an inner handle shell 19 and an outer handle shell 20. The second fan 6 is disposed within the receiving space defined by the inner handle shell 19. The inner handle shell 19 is generally composed of two parts, which are fastened together and jointly define a portion of the second fluid channel 43. The second fan 6 is disposed within this portion of the second fluid channel 43. By placing the second fan 6 inside the handle 2, the volume of the main body 1 can be effectively reduced, making the entire hair dryer 100 more compact. During installation, the inner handle shell is installed onto the main body 1, and then the outer handle shell 20 is installed onto the inner handle shell 19, and then fixed onto the main body 1.

[0039] refer to Figure 3 and 4 The inner shell 11 of the main body defines at least a portion of the first fluid channel 33 and a portion of the second fluid channel 43, while the inner shell 19 of the handle defines the remaining portion of the second fluid channel 43. The portion of the second fluid channel 43 defined by the handle 2 and the portion of the second fluid channel 43 defined by the main body 1 together form a complete fluid channel. The second circuit board 8 is a control board. Because it integrates functions such as controlling the first fan 5, the second fan 6, the first heater 9, and the second heater 10, the second circuit board 8 has a large number of integrated components. During the operation of the blower 100, it generates significant heat. If it is not cooled down, it may burn out or frequently trigger protection mechanisms, affecting user operation. To make the structure more robust, the second circuit board 8 is located within the second fluid channel 43 at the junction of the main body 1 and the handle 2.

[0040] Although the embodiments of this utility model have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. They can be applied to various fields suitable for this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other modifications can be easily made. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, this utility model is not limited to the specific details and the illustrations shown and described herein.
