Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of towel heating barrels, specifically a towel heating barrel with a flame effect. Background Technology
[0002] A towel warmer is a practical household appliance primarily used to heat and dry towels, bathrobes, and other items, providing users with a more comfortable and convenient experience. Towel warmers are widely used in homes, hotels, beauty salons, and hair salons. In a home environment, they provide warm towels, increasing the comfort of bathing; in hotels and beauty salons, they enhance the overall customer experience and showcase service quality.
[0003] Currently, towel heating buckets in this field have a limited form and cannot provide real-time and vivid feedback on the working status inside the bucket. That is, they cannot vividly present the current heating efficiency and heating status to the user. Usually, the above information can only be displayed on a digital display screen, which is not vivid enough. In addition, the visual experience of digital display screens is relatively cold to the user and cannot give people a feeling of psychological warmth in winter, making it difficult to provide users with additional emotional value. Therefore, in order to address the above problems, a towel heating bucket with a flame effect is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a towel heating bucket with a flame effect. The towel heating bucket has a flame simulation mechanism and an adjuster on its front side. The flame simulation mechanism includes a flame lamp plate, a charcoal fire simulation plate, and a reflector. When the heating bucket is working, the flame lamp plate illuminates the charcoal fire simulation plate, simulating a roaring charcoal fire. The reflector periodically reflects light, making the charcoal fire appear to flicker, creating a more realistic effect. When the heating bucket's working state is adjusted via the adjuster, the flame simulation mechanism can also be adjusted synchronously, resulting in different display brightness and effects of the simulated charcoal fire. For example, the high-temperature simulated charcoal fire appears brighter, while the low-temperature or heat-preservation section simulates a dimmer charcoal fire. This vividly and realistically expresses the heating state and provides a psychologically warm feeling to the user in winter, offering emotional value. This solves the technical problem in existing towel heating buckets that cannot provide real-time and vivid feedback on the working state inside the bucket, typically only displaying this information on a digital screen, failing to provide a psychologically warm feeling in winter and offering additional emotional value to the user.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the embodiments of this application to solve its technical problem is:
[0006] A towel heating bucket with a flame effect includes an outer shell, an inner heating bucket fixedly disposed inside, a top frame fixedly disposed at the top of the inner heating bucket with a flip-top cover rotatably connected thereto, a flame simulation mechanism mounted on the front side of the inner heating bucket, and an adjuster mounted on the upper part of the front side of the inner heating bucket. The flame simulation mechanism includes a light-shielding box with a reflective mechanism inside and a flame lamp plate mounted on its bottom side. A charcoal fire simulation plate is mounted on the front side of the light-shielding box, and a transparent cover is provided on the front side of the charcoal fire simulation plate. Based on the above technical solution, in the heating bucket... During operation, the flame lamp illuminates the charcoal fire simulation plate, simulating a roaring charcoal fire. The reflective mechanism periodically reflects the light, making the charcoal fire appear to flicker, creating a more realistic effect. When the heating barrel's operating status is adjusted via the regulator, the flame simulation mechanism can also be adjusted synchronously, resulting in different display brightness and effects of the simulated charcoal fire. For example, the high-temperature simulated charcoal fire appears brighter, while the low-temperature or heat-preservation section simulates a dimmer charcoal fire. This not only vividly expresses the heating status but also provides users with a sense of warmth in winter, offering emotional value.
[0007] In one possible implementation, the flame lamp panel includes a circuit board on which two rows of flame lamp beads are mounted, wherein the flame lamp beads in the rear row are higher than those in the front row. This arrangement makes the simulated charcoal fire illuminated by the flame lamp beads look more three-dimensional and vivid.
[0008] In one possible implementation, the charcoal fire simulation board includes a transparent substrate with a transparent simulation block at the bottom front side. The transparent simulation block is in the shape of piled-up charcoal fire. The transparent substrate allows light to shine through and illuminate the transparent simulation block. When the transparent simulation block is illuminated by the light, it reflects and refracts to form the shape of charcoal fire, thus achieving a simulation effect.
[0009] In one possible implementation, the reflective mechanism includes a drive motor mounted on the side of the light shield box, with its output shaft fixedly connected to a drive shaft. Several spirally distributed rolling reflectors are fixedly connected to the drive shaft. When the drive motor is working, it can drive the drive shaft to rotate the rolling reflectors, which can periodically refract the light, thereby making the reflected light have motion characteristics and thus simulating the effect of flame jumping.
[0010] In one possible implementation, the heated inner tub includes an outer tub layer and an inner tub layer, with a heating wire disposed between the two. The heating wire is corrugated and surrounds the inner tub layer. When the heating wire is energized, it can release heat to heat the towels inside the inner tub layer. At the same time, the above structure can prevent the heating wire from directly contacting the towels, thus preventing the towels from being burned by high temperatures.
[0011] In one possible implementation, a power cord is provided at the bottom of the outer shell of the bucket, and a centrally located storage plate is fixedly provided at the bottom of the outer shell of the bucket. The storage plate has a cable tray for storing the power cord. The above structure can gather the power cord through the cable tray when not in use, so as to avoid the power cord from being scattered.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the storage plate has a plug fixing slot and a fixing slot, both of which are connected to the cable take-up slot. The plug fixing slot is located inside the cable take-up slot and is used to fix the plug part of the power cord. The fixing slot is located outside the cable take-up slot. Based on the above technical solution, when the heating barrel is not used, the plug of the power cord is fixed by the plug fixing slot. When the heating barrel is used, the fixing slot can fix the pulled-out end of the power cord, thus facilitating use.
[0013] In one possible implementation, the regulator is electrically connected to the heating inner barrel and the flame simulation mechanism to control the working state of both. This technical solution can achieve linkage between the adjustment of the working state of the heating inner barrel and the change of the flame effect of the flame simulation mechanism.
[0014] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0015] The towel heating barrel is equipped with a flame simulation mechanism and an adjuster on the front. The flame simulation mechanism includes a flame lamp plate, a charcoal fire simulation plate, and a reflector. When the heating barrel is working, the flame lamp plate illuminates the charcoal fire simulation plate, simulating a roaring charcoal fire. The reflector periodically reflects the light, making the charcoal fire appear to flicker, which is more realistic. When the heating barrel's working status is adjusted via the adjuster, the flame simulation mechanism can also be adjusted synchronously, resulting in different display brightness and effects of the simulated charcoal fire. For example, the high-temperature simulated charcoal fire appears brighter, while the low-temperature or heat-preserving section simulates a dimmer charcoal fire. This not only vividly expresses the heating status but also provides users with a psychological feeling of warmth in winter, offering emotional value. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solution in this application embodiment is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, and the overall idea is as follows:
[0025] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a towel heating bucket with a flame effect, including a bucket shell 1, an inner heating bucket 2 fixedly installed inside, a top frame 4 fixedly installed at the top of the inner heating bucket 2, a flip cover 5 rotatably connected to the top frame 4, a flame simulation mechanism 3 installed on the front side of the inner heating bucket 2, and an adjuster 6 installed on the upper part of the front side of the inner heating bucket 2. The flame simulation mechanism 3 includes a light-shielding box 31, which has a reflective mechanism 33 inside, and a flame lamp plate 32 installed on the bottom side inside the light-shielding box 31. A charcoal fire simulation plate 34 is installed on the front side of the light-shielding box 31, and a transparent cover plate 35 is provided on the front side of the charcoal fire simulation plate 34. In the above technical solution, when the heating barrel is working, the flame lamp plate 32 illuminates the charcoal fire simulation plate 34, enabling it to simulate a roaring charcoal fire. The reflector mechanism 33 periodically reflects the light, making the charcoal fire appear to be jumping, which is more realistic. When the working state of the heating barrel is adjusted by the regulator 6, the flame simulation mechanism 3 can also be adjusted synchronously, so that the display brightness and effect of the simulated charcoal fire are different. For example, the high-temperature simulated charcoal fire is displayed more brightly, while the low-temperature or heat preservation section simulated charcoal fire is dimmer. This can not only vividly express the heating state, but also give users a feeling of psychological warmth in winter, providing emotional value.
[0026] The regulator 6 is electrically connected to the heating inner barrel 2 and the flame simulation mechanism 3 to regulate the working state of both. This technical solution can realize the linkage between the adjustment of the working state of the heating inner barrel 2 and the change of the flame effect of the flame simulation mechanism 3.
[0027] like Figure 3 - Figure 4 As shown, the flame lamp board 32 includes a circuit board 321 on which two rows of flame lamp beads 322 are installed. The flame lamp beads 322 in the rear row are higher than those in the front row. This arrangement makes the simulated charcoal fire illuminated by the flame lamp beads 322 look more three-dimensional and vivid. The charcoal fire simulation board 34 includes a transparent substrate 341 with a transparent simulation block 342 at the bottom front side. The transparent simulation block 342 is in the shape of piled-up charcoal fire. The transparent substrate 341 allows light to shine out and illuminate the transparent simulation block 342. After being illuminated by the light, the transparent simulation block 342 reflects and refracts to form the shape of charcoal fire, thus achieving the simulation effect.
[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the reflector mechanism 33 includes a drive motor 331 mounted on the side of the light shield 31, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to a drive shaft 332. Several spirally distributed rolling reflectors 333 are fixedly connected to the drive shaft 332. When the drive motor 331 is working, it can drive the drive shaft 332 to rotate the rolling reflectors 333, which plays a periodic refraction role on the light, so that the reflected light has the characteristics of movement, thereby simulating the effect of flame jumping.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the heated inner tub 2 includes an outer tub layer 21 and an inner tub layer 22. A heating wire 23 is provided between the two, which is corrugated and surrounds the inner tub layer 22. When the heating wire 23 is energized, it can release heat to heat the towels inside the inner tub layer 22. At the same time, the above structure can prevent the heating wire 23 from directly contacting the towels and prevent the towels from being burned by high temperature.
[0030] like Figure 6As shown, a power cord 8 is provided at the bottom of the outer shell 1, and a centrally located storage plate 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer shell 1. The storage plate 7 has a cable tray 71 for storing the power cord 8. This structure allows the power cord 8 to be bundled up through the cable tray 71 when not in use, preventing the power cord 8 from becoming tangled. In addition, the storage plate 7 has a plug fixing slot 72 and a fixing slot 73, both of which are connected to the cable tray 71. The plug fixing slot 72 is located inside the cable tray 71 and is used to fix the plug part of the power cord 8. The fixing slot 73 is located outside the cable tray 71. Based on the above technical solution, when the heating barrel is not in use, the plug of the power cord 8 is fixed by the plug fixing slot 72. When the heating barrel is in use, the fixing slot 73 can position and fix the pulled-out end of the power cord 8, thus facilitating use.
[0031] The working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0032] The towel heating barrel is equipped with a flame simulation mechanism 3 and an adjuster 6 on the front. The flame simulation mechanism 3 contains a flame lamp plate 32, a charcoal fire simulation plate 34, and a reflector 33. When the heating barrel is working, the flame lamp plate 32 illuminates the charcoal fire simulation plate 34, simulating a roaring charcoal fire. The reflector 33 periodically reflects the light, making the charcoal fire appear to flicker, which is more realistic. When the working state of the heating barrel is adjusted by the adjuster 6, the flame simulation mechanism 3 can also be adjusted synchronously, so that the display brightness and effect of the simulated charcoal fire are different. For example, the simulated charcoal fire at high temperature is displayed more brightly, while the simulated charcoal fire at low temperature or in the heat preservation section is dimmer. This can vividly express the heating state and also give users a feeling of psychological warmth in winter, providing emotional value.
[0033] The flame lamp board 32 includes a circuit board 321 on which two rows of flame lamp beads 322 are installed. The flame lamp beads 322 in the rear row are higher than those in the front row. This arrangement makes the simulated charcoal fire illuminated by the flame lamp beads 322 look more three-dimensional and vivid. The charcoal fire simulation board 34 includes a transparent substrate 341 with a transparent simulation block 342 at the bottom front side. The transparent simulation block 342 is in the shape of piled-up charcoal fire. The transparent substrate 341 allows light to shine out and illuminate the transparent simulation block 342. After being illuminated by the light, the transparent simulation block 342 reflects and refracts to form the shape of charcoal fire, thus achieving the simulation effect. When the drive motor 331 is working, it can drive the drive shaft 332 to rotate the rolling reflector 333, which plays a role in periodically refracting the light, so that the reflected light has the characteristics of movement, thereby simulating the effect of flame jumping.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
