[0033] The utility model provides a kind of dry foot auxiliary device 10, to improve drying effect, to facilitate and quickly complete dry foot operation.It is to be explained in advance, the dry foot auxiliary device 10 of the utility model needs to cooperate with the hair dryer 20 commonly used in life to use, to realize dry foot operation, its specific working principle will be described below.
[0034] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The dry foot auxiliary device 10 of the utility model includes device body 100, and device body 100 is hollow structure, and its inside forms air chamber 101;Device body 100 is further equipped with air inlet 102 and first exhaust hole 103, the air inlet 102 and first exhaust hole 103 all through air chamber 101, and the air current in device body 100 will pass through air inlet 102, air chamber 101 and first exhaust hole 103 in sequence when using.
[0035] In addition, the device body 100 is provided with a supporting part 120 and a gas guiding part 130 on the foot surface 110, and the supporting part 120 is used to support the user's feet. The gas guiding part 130 is a hollow structure and is provided with a cavity 131 communicated with the air chamber 101, and the second air outlet 104 is arranged on the gas guiding part 130 and communicated with the cavity 131, and the first air outlet 103 is used to guide the air flow to the instep of the feet.
[0036] The working principle of the dry feet auxiliary device 10 of the utility model will be described below.
[0037] In use, the user's feet are placed on the foot surface 110 of the device body 100, and the user's feet are pressed on the supporting part 120; then, the user installs the hair dryer 20 outside the air inlet 102, and the air inlet of the hair dryer 20 is directed to the air inlet 102 (as shown in Figure 4 After being started, the hair dryer 20 blows air into the air chamber 101 through the air inlet 102 to promote the air flow in the air chamber 101, and the air pressure in the air chamber 101 will be higher than the outside air pressure; under the action of the pressure, the air flow in the air chamber 101 is discharged through the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104. During this period, the first air outlet 103 guides the air flow to the soles to accelerate the air flow around the soles and accelerate the evaporation of water droplets, thereby drying the soles; similarly, the second air outlet 104 guides the air flow to the instep to accelerate the air flow and the evaporation of water droplets, thereby drying the instep.
[0038] It should be emphasized that the dry feet auxiliary device 10 does not configure a fan, but cooperates with the hair dryer 20 product outside. Specifically, the dry feet auxiliary device 10 uses the hair dryer 20 product commonly used in the user's family, and realizes the blowing effect by the combination of the two. This design can bring the following beneficial effects: first, the combination design can greatly reduce the production cost of the dry feet auxiliary device 10 and the purchase burden of the user; second, this design does not need to additionally configure a motor and a power supply, so that the dry feet auxiliary device 10 is more suitable for placing in a humid bathroom environment, improves the product safety and service life; third, this design can facilitate the washing and cleaning of the dry feet auxiliary device 10, thereby avoiding dirt accumulation and bacterial breeding.
[0039] In addition, the foot drying auxiliary device 10 can dry the sole and the instep of the foot at the same time when drying the foot. Specifically, the air blower 20 promotes the air pressure in the air chamber 101 to be higher than the air pressure outside, and the airflow is discharged through the first air outlet 103 and the second air outlet 104 under the action of the pressure; at this time, part of the airflow is blown to the sole under the guidance of the first air outlet 103, and part of the airflow enters the cavity 131 of the air guide component 130 and is blown to the instep under the guidance of the second air outlet 104. In this way, the sole and the instep are dried at the same time, which can improve the drying efficiency.
[0040] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the air guide component 130 is in a boss structure, the second air outlet 104 is located on the side surface of the air guide component 130, and the upper surface of the air guide component 130 is provided with a third air outlet 105. In use, the third air outlet 105 can guide the airflow to blow to the user's calf, so as to dry the water droplets on the user's calf.
[0041] In the embodiment, the air guide component 130 is integrally formed with the device body 100. Preferably, the device body 100 is made of plastic material, which can be manufactured by using the existing injection molding process to realize rapid and efficient production and processing, and compared with the structure made of metal material, the structure made of plastic material has the characteristics of light weight, convenient water washing, and not easy to rust.
[0042] Of course, in other embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 , the air guide component 130 can also be designed as a detachable structure. The air guide component 130 is detachably installed on the tread surface 110 of the device body 100, and the tread surface 110 is provided with a through groove 111 matched with the air guide component 130; when the air guide component 130 is installed, the cavity 131 of the air guide component 130 is communicated with the air chamber 101 through the through groove 111.
[0043] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the support component 120 includes a plurality of grooves 121 and a plurality of supporting blocks 122, the grooves 121 are arranged on the tread surface 110, and the supporting blocks 122 are formed between adjacent two grooves 121. The upper surface of the supporting block 122 is in contact with the sole of the foot, and the upper surface of the supporting block 122 is flush with the tread surface 110; the first air outlet 103 is located at the bottom of the groove 121. Such a design is beneficial to dry the sole. Specifically, the device of the prior art usually supports the user's foot by using a plane, and the water droplets on the user's foot fall on the plane during use, and the water stains generated directly contact the sole, which will slow down the drying efficiency of the sole. The design has the grooves 121 and the supporting blocks 122, and the water droplets on the user's foot will fall into the grooves 121 during use, so that the sole will not directly contact the water stains, thereby improving the drying efficiency.
[0044] Preferably, as shown in Figure 6 The supporting block 122 is provided with a transverse air passage 123, which extends towards the recess 121 and has a depth smaller than that of the recess 121. In use, the user's foot bottom is pressed on the upper surface of the supporting block 122, and part of the foot bottom is blocked by the supporting block 122, so that this part cannot be dried quickly. The transverse air passage 123 reduces the contact area between the supporting block 122 and the foot bottom, thereby improving the drying efficiency. In addition, the transverse air passage 123 enables the adjacent two recesses 121 to communicate with each other, thereby guiding part of the airflow to flow transversely, i.e. to flow between the multiple recesses 121, thereby improving the drying efficiency.
[0045] The structure of the supporting member 120 can be changed according to actual conditions. In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 7 The supporting member 120 includes multiple protrusions 124 for supporting the foot, the protrusions 124 are higher than the foot tread 110, and the first air outlet 103 is arranged on the foot tread 110 and located at the gap between the multiple protrusions 124. This design also lifts the foot bottom, so that the foot bottom does not directly contact the water stain, thereby improving the drying efficiency.
[0046] In this embodiment, in order to realize convenient combination of the external hair dryer 20 and the foot drying auxiliary device 10, as shown in Figure 8 The air inlet 102 of the device body 100 is provided with a coupling member 140, which is used to cooperate with the external hair dryer 20 to enable the hair dryer 20 to be stably installed on the device body 100, thereby freeing the user's hands. Preferably, the coupling member 140 is detachably connected with the device body 100, and the coupling member 140 can be provided with multiple specifications of different sizes, and the user selects the appropriate specification of the coupling member 140 according to actual needs to complete the installation and fixation. Further, the coupling member 140 is provided with a magnet (not shown in the figure), and the coupling member 140 is magnetically attracted to the hair dryer 20. Of course, the coupling member 140 can also have other structures, such as in another embodiment, the coupling member 140 has a sleeve structure (as shown in Figure 9 The hair dryer 20 is directly inserted into or clamped to the coupling member 140, thereby realizing convenient installation operation.
[0047] The utility model also discloses a foot drying equipment 30, as shown in Figure 10 In addition to the above-mentioned foot drying auxiliary device 10, the foot drying equipment 30 also includes a fan 200 used in cooperation with the foot drying auxiliary device 10, and the fan 200 has the same function as the hair dryer 20. In use, the fan 200 enables the airflow to enter the air chamber 101 from the air inlet 102, so that the air pressure in the device body 100 is higher than that of the outside, thereby generating the air blowing effect.
[0048] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 10 The fan 200 is detachably installed outside the air inlet 102. In this way, when not in use, the user can conveniently separate the fan 200 from the foot drying aid 10. After separation, the foot drying aid 10 does not have electronic components, so it can be directly washed or placed in a humid bathroom environment for a long time, thereby eliminating the problems of inconvenience in cleaning and damage to electronic components caused by humidity.
[0049] In summary, the foot drying aid and the foot drying device can improve the drying effect on the basis of reducing the cost, thereby conveniently and quickly completing the foot drying operation, and improving the cleaning convenience of the device itself.
[0050] The above-described embodiments only express several embodiments of the utility model, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
