Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of integrated ceilings, specifically to a heater and an integrated ceiling assembly structure. Background Technology

[0002] Existing integrated ceilings include keel components and decorative panels suspended below the keel components. The decorative panels are arranged neatly in a matrix, and the gaps between adjacent decorative panels form long vertical installation channels. This facilitates the installation of equipment such as lights and heaters, ensures the integrity of the decorative panels without the need for cutting, and enhances the decorative aesthetics of the panels.

[0003] Existing heaters consist of a panel installed in the installation channel and a fan mounted above the keel assembly. The fan is installed using the space above the keel assembly, and the airflow generated by the fan is delivered to the panel for exhaust. Because the fan and panel are independently installed and connected by air ducts, the fan needs to be removed from the decorative panel to obtain the space for installation and removal, increasing the difficulty of installation and maintenance and affecting the convenience of installation and maintenance. It also places high demands on the space above the keel assembly, limiting the applicable range of the fan. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a heater with a wind-driving component and an integrated ceiling assembly structure using it. The wind-driving component is mounted on a bracket, and its vertical projection is completely hidden within the vertical projection of the bracket. This allows the wind-driving component to be installed and removed synchronously with the bracket through the installation channel. This not only facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the wind-driving component but also reduces the installation space requirements for the wind-driving component, expands its applicability, and improves the user experience.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following method: a heater with a wind-driving component, including a bracket, a long strip panel disposed on the bottom surface of the bracket, and a wind guide plate disposed in the middle of the panel. The wind-driving component is disposed on the bracket, and the vertical projection of the wind-driving component falls completely within the vertical projection range of the bracket. The wind-driving component and the bracket can be integrally inserted and detached in a vertically oriented mounting channel with a rectangular cross-section, so that the panel blocks the mounting channel. By placing the wind-driving component above the bracket, the volume of the wind-driving component is reduced, ensuring that the vertical projection of the wind-driving component is completely hidden within the vertical projection of the bracket. This allows the wind-driving component to be vertically inserted and hidden in the mounting channel along with the bracket, which not only facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the wind-driving component without removing the decorative panel, but also reduces the installation space requirements for the wind-driving component and the space requirements above the keel component, expands the applicable range, and improves the user experience.

[0006] Preferably, the air-driving assembly includes an air inlet box, a fan, and an exhaust box arranged linearly along the length of the support. The fan draws air from the air inlet box and discharges it to the outside through the exhaust box. This efficient use of the support's length to design the air inlet box, fan, and exhaust box ensures that airflow follows a linear path, effectively reducing wind resistance and improving airflow efficiency. It also ensures that the vertical projection of the air-driving assembly falls completely within the support, allowing it to be smoothly inserted into the installation channel through the mounting opening between the decorative panels.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom surface of the air inlet box is provided with an air inlet, and the bottom surface of the air outlet box is provided with an air outlet, both of which are positioned towards the air guide plate. The downward orientation of both the air inlet and outlet facilitates connection with the indoor space. The length of the air guide plate covers both the air inlet and outlet, guiding the airflow from the exhaust outlet and ensuring sufficient air supply to the air inlet, effectively reducing resistance to air entering the air inlet.

[0008] Preferably, the axis of the fan is set along the length of the support to reduce the wind resistance of the air in the air inlet box being transported to the air outlet box by the fan. This can effectively reduce the size of the fan along the width of the support and ensure that the airflow is transported along the axis, thereby effectively reducing wind resistance and improving airflow transport efficiency.

[0009] Preferably, the exhaust box is cylindrical, with the exhaust outlet located along its axis. The diameter of the exhaust box is smaller than the width of the support frame. At least one diverter plate is provided on the top of the inner wall of the exhaust box, through which airflow passes and is redirected to the exhaust outlet. The exhaust box receives airflow from the fan and, as it rotates along the axial direction, utilizes the diverter plates along the way to divert the airflow, ensuring uniform airflow in all sections of the exhaust outlet and thus guaranteeing even diffusion of airflow into the indoor space. The diameter of the exhaust box is smaller than the width of the support frame, ensuring that the exhaust box can smoothly pass through the installation opening and be inserted into the installation channel. The circular cross-section of the exhaust box facilitates guiding airflow towards the exhaust outlet, thereby reducing kinetic energy loss along the airflow path.

[0010] Preferably, the air inlet box is rectangular, and its width is no greater than the width of the support frame. Setting the air inlet box in a rectangular shape ensures that it achieves maximum volume despite the limited width, thereby providing sufficient airflow for the fan. Furthermore, the air inlet is located on the bottom surface of the air inlet box, which facilitates the fan's extraction of air from the indoor space, thus improving the airflow efficiency of the indoor space.

[0011] Preferably, a heating element is provided at the exhaust vent. The airflow inside the exhaust box passes through the heating element and forms hot air that is delivered to the air guide plate. The heating element heats the airflow output from the exhaust vent, thereby forming hot air that is delivered into the indoor space. The heating element is located at the exhaust vent to ensure that all airflow output from the exhaust vent passes through the heating element and is delivered into the indoor space. The hot air contacts the air guide plate and is redirected, allowing the hot air to be diffused to a predetermined area.

[0012] Preferably, the length of the exhaust vent is greater than the length of the air inlet. By increasing the length of the exhaust vent, the range of hot air diffusion is expanded, which not only ensures the temperature balance in all areas of the indoor space, but also effectively improves the heating efficiency of the indoor space.

[0013] Preferably, the air inlets are multiple and arranged in a matrix on the bottom surface of the air inlet box. Having multiple air inlets can not only improve the air intake efficiency by increasing the number of air inlets, but also prevent foreign objects from entering the air inlet box, thus protecting the fan.

[0014] Preferably, the panel has an opening in the center to accommodate an air guide plate. The air guide plate is installed at the opening via a lifting assembly, which includes a lifting part. The air guide plate is rotatably mounted at the bottom of the lifting part and can switch between a concealed position flush with the panel and a usage position exposed downwards through the opening. When the air guide plate is switched to the usage position, the exhaust vent is exposed through the opening. The airflow from the exhaust vent passes downwards through the opening and is guided by the air guide plate to be directed towards a preset area. The panel is used to conceal and decorate the area between the air guide plate and adjacent decorative panels, effectively enhancing the decorative effect of the integrated ceiling. The lifting assembly can drive the air guide plate to rise and fall, allowing it to descend below the decorative panel and guide the hot air, preventing the hot air from being blocked by adjacent decorative panels and thus preventing it from being unable to be delivered outwards. When the air guide plate is in the concealed position, it maintains a horizontal posture, so that the air guide plate and the panel are flush with the adjacent decorative panels, effectively concealing the air guide plate. When the air guide plate is in the use position, it is suspended below the integrated ceiling, which not only ensures that the airflow is not blocked by the decorative panel and effectively improves the airflow diffusion effect, but also improves the airflow flexibility by increasing the distance between the air guide plate and the decorative panel.

[0015] Preferably, the bracket has a hollow structure with an internal vertical air duct. Both the air inlet and outlet are connected to the opening through the vertical air duct. The bracket is used to fix the lifting assembly, the air driving assembly, the panel, and the air guide plate, and to uniformly fix these components to the preset work position. The vertical air duct inside the bracket facilitates the airflow along the preset path, effectively utilizing the space within the installation channel.

[0016] Preferably, the bracket is equipped with two sets of air-driving components, which are symmetrically distributed along the length of the bracket. The air-driving components are located on both sides of the bracket, effectively utilizing its length to increase airflow.

[0017] An integrated ceiling assembly structure includes adjacent decorative panels with elongated installation channels formed between corresponding edges of the panels. A heater can be completely inserted and concealed within these installation channels, allowing the panel to be flush with the decorative panels. After the heater is fully inserted into the installation channel and installed in place, it is fixed within the channel by a bracket. The installation channel forms a space to accommodate the heater. The panel seals the lower end of the installation channel and is flush with the adjacent decorative panel, effectively concealing the heater and enhancing aesthetics.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By placing the air-driving component above the bracket, the volume of the air-driving component is reduced, ensuring that the vertical projection of the air-driving component is completely hidden within the vertical projection of the bracket. This allows the air-driving component to be vertically inserted and hidden in the installation channel along with the bracket, which facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the air-driving component without disassembling the decorative panel. It also reduces the installation space requirements for the air-driving component, lowers the space requirements above the keel component, expands the applicable range, and improves the user experience.

[0025] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] This embodiment provides a heater with a wind-driving component.

[0028] like Figure 1 and 2 The heater shown consists of a bracket 1, a long strip panel 2 on the bottom surface of the bracket 1, and an air guide plate 3 in the middle of the panel 2. The bracket 1 is equipped with an air-driving component 5, the vertical projection of which falls entirely within the vertical projection range of the bracket 1. The air-driving component 5 and the bracket 1 can be integrally and detachably installed in a vertically oriented mounting channel with a rectangular cross-section, so that the panel 2 blocks the mounting channel. Positioning the air-driving component 5 above the bracket 1 reduces its volume and ensures that its vertical projection is completely hidden within the vertical projection of the bracket 1. This allows the air-driving component 5 to be vertically inserted and hidden within the mounting channel along with the bracket 1. This facilitates the assembly and maintenance of the air-driving component 5 without removing the decorative panel, reduces the installation space requirements for the air-driving component 5, lowers the space requirements above the keel assembly, expands its applicability, and improves the user experience.

[0029] In this embodiment, the air-driving assembly 5 includes an air inlet box 6, a fan 7, and an exhaust box 8 arranged linearly along the length of the support 1. The fan 7 draws air from the air inlet box 6 and discharges it to the outside through the exhaust box 8. The air-driving assembly 5 is located above the support 1, the lifting assembly 4 is located inside the support 1, the panel 2 is located on the bottom surface of the support 1, and the air guide plate 3 is fixed to the bottom end of the lifting part of the support 1 assembly. In use, the air guide plate 3 can be switched between a hidden position flush with the panel 2 and a working position exposed downwards through an opening. When the air guide plate 3 is switched to the working position (e.g., ...), the air guide plate 3 can be used in various ways. Figure 3 As shown), the air guide plate 3 is driven to the bottom of the panel 2 by the lifting assembly 4. The air guide plate 3 can rotate as needed, thereby guiding the airflow from the exhaust port 10 to change direction; when the air guide plate 3 is switched to the hidden position (such as...), Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the air guide plate 3 is lifted by the lifting component 4, and the air guide plate 3 switches to a horizontal position, so that the air guide plate 3 and the panel 2 are flush and connected.

[0030] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the air inlet box 6 is provided with an air inlet 9, and the bottom surface of the air outlet box 8 is provided with an air outlet 10. Both the air inlet 9 and the air outlet 10 are arranged facing the air guide plate 3 so that the airflow forms a C-shaped flow path in the heater. Both ends of the flow path are vertically arranged, which not only ensures the circulation of indoor air, but also maintains the airflow energy by reducing the bends, thereby improving the airflow efficiency. When the air guide is switched to the use state, the opening is exposed and connects the air drive component 5 and the indoor space. The indoor air flows upward through the opening and into the air inlet box 6. The air in the air inlet box 6 is driven by the fan 7 to be transported to the exhaust cavity. The pressurized airflow flows along the axis of the exhaust box 8 and turns downward under the obstruction of the diversion plate 11 along the way. The downward airflow flows through the exhaust outlet 10 and the heating element 12 in sequence to form hot air transported by the air guide plate 3. The hot air completes the turning after contacting the air guide plate 3 and is transported to the preset area.

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to reduce airflow resistance and maintain airflow velocity, the following structures are used to improve the effect of reducing airflow resistance, including but not limited to:

[0032] Structure 1: The axis of the fan 7 is set along the length of the support 1 to reduce the air resistance of the air in the air inlet box 6 being transported to the air outlet box 8 through the fan 7;

[0033] Structure 2: The exhaust box 8 is cylindrical, and the exhaust port 10 is opened along the axis of the exhaust box 8. At least one diverter plate 11 is provided on the top of the inner wall of the exhaust box 8. The airflow flows through the diverter plate 11 and turns to flow through the exhaust port 10, which not only ensures that the airflow turns in the exhaust box 8, but also ensures that each area of ​​the exhaust port 10 can effectively receive a balanced airflow.

[0034] Structure 3: The air inlet box 6 is rectangular in shape. By increasing the volume of the air inlet box 6, sufficient air supply is provided for the fan 7, thereby ensuring the effective operation of the fan 7.

[0035] In this embodiment, the diameter of the exhaust box 8 is smaller than the width of the bracket 1, the width of the air inlet box 6 is not greater than the width of the bracket 1, and the width of the fan 7 is smaller than the width of the bracket 1. By setting the width dimensions of the exhaust box 8, the fan 7, and the air inlet box 6, it is ensured that the air drive assembly 5 can pass through the opening and installation channel for the bracket 1 as a whole, thereby ensuring that the air drive assembly 5 can be inserted, removed, and disassembled synchronously with the bracket 1, improving the convenience of disassembly and maintenance.

[0036] In this embodiment, a heating element 12 is provided at the exhaust port 10. The airflow in the exhaust box 8 flows through the heating element 12 and forms hot air delivered by the guide vane 3. The heating element 12 is elongated and completely blocks the exhaust port 10, ensuring that the airflow discharged from the exhaust port 10 can flow through the heating element 12 and be heated to form hot air.

[0037] In this embodiment, the length of the exhaust port 10 is greater than the length of the air inlet 9. This effectively increases the coverage area of ​​the exhaust port 10, thereby improving the hot air diffusion effect. Furthermore, the increased area of ​​the exhaust port 10 facilitates the discharge of high-pressure airflow and reduces exhaust resistance. Multiple air inlets 9 are arranged in a matrix on the bottom surface of the air inlet box. This increases the number of air inlets 9 to improve air intake efficiency and effectively prevents foreign objects from entering the air inlet box, preventing the fan 7 from becoming stuck or blocked, thus protecting the fan 7.

[0038] In this embodiment, the panel 2 has an opening in the middle to accommodate the air guide plate 3. The air guide plate 3 is installed at the opening via a lifting assembly 4, which includes a lifting part. The air guide plate 3 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the lifting part. When the air guide plate 3 is switched to the working position, the exhaust port 10 is exposed through the opening. The airflow output from the exhaust port 10 passes downward through the opening and is guided by the air guide plate 3 to be directed towards a preset area. The outline of the opening matches the outline of the air guide plate 3, making it convenient for the air guide plate 3 to seal the opening when switched to the hidden position, effectively improving aesthetics. The air guide plate 3 can be independently driven to rotate, allowing it to guide hot air in any direction, effectively improving control flexibility and convenience.

[0039] Preferably, the bracket 1 has a hollow structure with an internal vertical air duct. Both the air inlet 9 and the air outlet 10 are connected to the opening through the vertical air duct. The middle part of the bracket 1 needs to provide space for installing the lifting assembly 4, and also needs to be equipped with a vertical air duct for airflow to ensure smooth airflow.

[0040] In this embodiment, the bracket 1 is provided with two sets of air-driving components 5. The air-driving components 5 are symmetrically distributed along the length of the bracket 1, which not only ensures that the overall width of the heater meets the overall plug-in installation requirements, but also increases the arrangement range of the exhaust port 10 and the hot air volume by increasing the number of air-driving components 5.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] Compared to Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides an integrated ceiling assembly structure.

[0043] An integrated ceiling assembly structure includes adjacent decorative panels with elongated installation channels formed between corresponding edges of the decorative panels. A heater can be inserted entirely into and concealed within these installation channels, allowing the panel 2 to be flush with the decorative panels. The decorative panels are installed below the ceiling via a keel assembly. Adjacent decorative panels are spaced apart to form the installation channels. The heater is inserted entirely into the installation channels and fixed to the keel assembly via a bracket 1. After installation, the bracket 1 and its lifting assembly 4 and air-driving assembly 5 are concealed within the installation channels. The panel 2 and the concealed air guide plate 3 cooperate to seal the lower end of the installation channels, ensuring a smooth and flush fit between the panel 2, air guide plate 3, and adjacent decorative panels.

[0044] The structure and effect of the heater described in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
