Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of household appliance technology, specifically relating to an upward-blowing type heating device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most bathroom heaters on the market use either radiant or forced-air heating, but they all share the common feature of being ceiling-mounted, providing heat from top to bottom. This top-down heating method goes against the natural upward movement of hot air. This results in a warmer upper area and a colder lower area in the bathroom, preventing the effective utilization of a large amount of heat energy. As a result, taller people feel that their heads are too hot, their bodies are too cold, and their lower bodies are cold. It is even more difficult for shorter people and children to keep warm, and they may even catch a cold from the cold, making it very inconvenient to use.

[0003] Therefore, more and more bathroom heaters are adopting a low-mounted installation structure to optimize the flow path of hot air and ensure a more even indoor air temperature. However, low-mounted bathroom heaters occupy wall and corner space, reducing the space available for people to move around and use, and do not provide a comfortable experience. Moreover, bathroom heaters that protrude from the wall or corner are not aesthetically pleasing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an upward-blowing type of heating device, which solves the problems of existing low-position bathroom heaters occupying space and being unsightly. At the same time, by using the heating element and fan of the heating device in conjunction with the window and window opening, a small drying space can be formed according to local conditions, with almost no additional components, to achieve the function of drying towels and clothes.

[0005] The objective of this application is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An upward-blowing type heating device includes a window frame and glass. The window frame includes a lower part of the window frame, an air inlet on the outer side of the lower part of the window frame, a heating element and a heating fan inside the lower part of the window frame, and an upward-blowing air outlet connected to the heating fan on the inner side of the lower part of the window frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the lower air inlet is equipped with louvers, and the upper air outlet is also equipped with louvers.

[0008] Furthermore, the heating element is a thermostatic ceramic.

[0009] Furthermore, the window frame also includes an upper window frame body, with an upper air vent in the middle of the upper window frame body, an exhaust fan inside the upper window frame body, and an upper air outlet on the outer side of the upper window frame body.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper air vent is equipped with louvers, and the upper air outlet is equipped with louvers.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner side of the window frame glass is provided with a retractable outer curtain.

[0012] Furthermore, a drying rod is provided in the middle of the window frame.

[0013] Furthermore, the aforementioned drying racks are arranged in a stepped manner.

[0014] Furthermore, one end of the drying rod is hinged to the window frame along the vertical axis, and the other end of the drying rod is hung on the window frame.

[0015] Furthermore, both ends of the drying rod are hung on the window frame.

[0016] Furthermore, the window frame also includes a window frame side body, a window frame top body, and an extended cover plate forming an inverted U-shaped structure on the window frame side body.

[0017] Furthermore, the extended cover is removably mounted on the upper body and side body of the window frame.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0019] (1) The device is embedded in the window opening and window frame to achieve hot air supply at a low position, making full use of the internal space of the window frame without occupying other space, ensuring the space utilization rate of the room, ensuring the comfort of the device, and also significantly reducing the wind noise caused by the high-power fan based on the window opening.

[0020] (2) The heating device achieves two functions in one unit by blowing upwards, providing warm air to the room while also drying it, saving half of the heating unit, and the supporting facilities are also significantly reduced, saving materials and reducing costs by about half.

[0021] (3) An additional extension cover is added to expand the narrow space inside the window opening, reduce the internal airflow speed, reduce the loss of internal heat, and enhance the internal drying effect. In addition, the inverted U-shape forms a downward heating air supply, which is conducive to the low-level supply of hot air.

[0022] The aforementioned main solution and its various further alternatives can be freely combined to form multiple solutions, all of which are solutions that can be adopted and are claimed in this application; furthermore, the (non-conflicting alternatives) can also be freely combined with each other and with other alternatives.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example

[0028] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an upward-blowing type heating device includes a window frame 2, glass 3, upper window frame 4, lower window frame 5, lower air inlet 6, heating element 7, heating fan 8, upward air outlet 13, upper air outlet 14, exhaust fan 15, upper air outlet 16, outer curtain 18, drying rod 19, and extension cover 20.

[0029] Window opening 1 is a pre-reserved opening in the wall for installing a window. The heating device is installed in the window opening, which firstly completes the low-level installation of the heating device, which is conducive to the low-level supply of warm air. Secondly, it avoids the problem of the heating device occupying indoor space when installed on the wall, and avoids the problem of additional heating device affecting comfort.

[0030] Window opening 1 contains a window frame 2 and glass 3. The window frame 2 is made of aluminum alloy and is glued and fixed inside the window opening, providing a base for the installation of glass 3 and a heating device. Glass 3 is installed on the window frame 2 and serves as a transparent partition, allowing light to pass through and providing a sense of separation. Glass 3 can be fixed to the window frame 2 and cannot be opened or closed (only for light transmission and partitioning), or it can be made to open and close freely using a hinge structure (also for ventilation).

[0031] The window frame 2 includes an upper part 4 and a lower part 5. The upper part 4 is the horizontal upper section of the window frame 2, which houses the ventilation system. The lower part 5 is the horizontal lower section of the window frame 2, which houses the heating system. The window frame 2 also includes side sections, which are the vertical sections on both sides of the window frame 2.

[0032] Since the heating device is based on the lower part 5 of the window frame 2, and the exhaust device is based on the upper part 4 of the window frame 2, and the window frame 2 is based on the window opening in the wall, the fan installation is relatively more stable, which can reduce the vibration and noise generated by the fan operation.

[0033] A lower air inlet 6 is provided on the outer side of the lower part 5 of the window frame. The lower air inlet 6 can be located indoors for internal circulation, or it can be located outdoors to supply outdoor air into the lower part 5 of the window frame. A heating element 7 and a warm air fan 8 are installed inside the lower part 5 of the window frame. The heating element 7 heats the air, and the warm air fan 8 provides air pressure to force outdoor or indoor air into the room, thus supplying fresh air and warm air. Without turning on the heat source, turning on the fan provides a cooling effect.

[0034] The inner side of the lower part 5 of the window frame is provided with an upward air outlet 13 that connects to the heater fan 8. The upward air outlet 13 is located indoors, meaning that air is supplied to the room through the upward air outlet 13. The upward air outlet 13 has an air duct structure that blows air obliquely upwards or vertically downwards, enabling hot air to be delivered from a low position and optimizing the evenness of heating. The upward air outlet 13 supplies heat to the window opening, which can be used for indoor hot air supply, and since the window opening space is relatively small, items placed inside can also be dried to a certain extent, thus achieving multiple uses with one unit and saving costs.

[0035] An upper air vent 14 is located in the middle of the upper part of the window frame 4, inside the room, and supplies air from the room or the drying room into the upper part of the window frame 4. An upper air outlet 16 is located on the outside of the upper part of the window frame 4, outside the room, and supplies air from inside the upper part of the window frame 4 to the outside. An exhaust fan 15 is installed inside the upper part of the window frame 4. The exhaust fan 15 provides air pressure to force air from the room or the drying room to the outside for dehumidification and odor removal. During drying, the exhaust fan can be turned on simultaneously to expel humid air.

[0036] Water splashing onto window frame surfaces is a common occurrence. Therefore, the heating element, fan, and power cord are installed away from the bottom plate of the window frame, instead using inverted or inner-side mounting methods. The components are designed with water shields above them, and if water gets into the window frame, it will flow out through the lower exhaust vent. A cross-flow fan is typically used, with a long, rectangular shape that matches the window frame. The heating element is preferably a PTC thermostatic ceramic heating element, also preferably with a long, rectangular shape that matches the frame. A safe DC voltage is preferred to power the fan and PTC thermostatic ceramic heating element for enhanced safety. The transformer assembly is preferably placed inside the ceiling, with the safety power cord routed through the frame.

[0037] Louvers are installed at the lower air inlets (6) and the upper air outlets (13) to ensure even airflow and to shield the interior of the lower window frame (5) from external objects that could damage the equipment. The heating element (7) is a thermostatic ceramic element used to provide the heat source. In addition to the lower air inlets located on the outside of the lower window frame, indoor air inlets can also be installed on the side of the window frame. These inlets at different locations can be controlled by switches to achieve optimal performance.

[0038] Louvers are installed at the upper exhaust vent 14 and the upper air outlet 16 to achieve uniform airflow and to block the interior of the upper part of the window frame 4, preventing other objects from entering and causing damage to the equipment.

[0039] The window frame 2 has a retractable outer curtain 18 on the inside of the glass. Specifically, the outer curtain 18 is placed on the upper part of the inside of the glass of the window frame side body. The retractable outer curtain 18 can be lowered to block the view, or it can be rolled up to allow light and ventilation.

[0040] A drying rod 19 is provided in the middle of the window frame 2. The drying rod 19 facilitates the hanging of towels and clothes, promoting drying and airing. Preferably, the drying rod 19 is movable or detachable from the window frame 2, allowing it to be installed in place when in use and moved away when not in use to avoid obstructing lighting or ventilation. Several drying rods 19 are arranged in a stepped pattern, allowing for the arrangement of multiple items in a tiered manner, which is conducive to the full blowing of hot air and ensures thorough drying. Because the drying rods 19 are movable or detachable, their positions can be flexibly changed.

[0041] One end of the drying rod 19 is hinged to the window frame 2 along the vertical axis, and the other end of the drying rod 19 is hung on the window frame 2, thus realizing the movable hinge of the drying rod 19 to the window frame 2 and enabling the horizontal flipping movement of the drying rod 19. When in use, the drying rod 19 is flipped so that it lies horizontally inside the window frame 2, with the end supported by the hanging bracket for hanging clothes. When not in use, the drying rod 19 is flipped so that it returns to the interior, without affecting lighting and ventilation.

[0042] Both ends of the drying rod 19 are hung on the window frame 2, meaning both ends of the drying rod 19 are attached to the hanging brackets on the window frame 2, allowing for detachable installation. When in use, the drying rod 19 is hung in place, and then clothes are hung. It can be removed when not in use.

[0043] The upper part 4 and the side parts of the window frame are provided with an extended cover plate 20 forming an inverted U-shape. The extended cover plate 20 is used to cover the window, making the narrow space inside the window opening more enclosed, reducing the loss of internal heat air, and helping to enhance the internal drying effect. In addition, the inverted U-shape forms a downward heating air supply form, which is conducive to the low-level supply of hot air.

[0044] The extension cover 20 is removably mounted on the upper body 4 and the side body of the window frame. Preferably, the extension cover 20 consists of two side plates corresponding to the side body of the window frame and a top plate corresponding to the upper body 4 of the window frame. It is installed on the corresponding window frame using a pull-out sliding structure. When extension is needed, the plate is pulled out to form an inverted U-shaped structure. When not in use, the plate is pushed back.

[0045] The foregoing basic examples and their further alternative examples can be freely combined to form multiple embodiments, all of which are embodiments that can be adopted and claimed in this application. In the scheme of this application, each alternative example can be arbitrarily combined with any other basic example and alternative example.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
