[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0030] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0031] See Figure 1-8 As shown, this embodiment provides a heater with a rotatable plug, including: a heater body 1, a plug 2, and a plug fixing member 3. The plug 2 includes a main body 21 and a rotating part 22. The heater body 1 has a mounting part 11, which is clamped between the main body 21 and the plug fixing member 3. A rotating hole 12 is provided on the mounting part 11, and the rotating part 22 is rotatably installed in the rotating hole 12. The plug fixing member 3 and the rotating part 22 are fixedly connected by screws.
[0032] In this embodiment, the design of the above structure allows the plug 2 to rotate relative to the main body 1 of the heater, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the insertion direction of the plug 2. This makes it more convenient to use in scenarios with narrow spaces or unreasonable socket layouts. At the same time, it can also avoid excessive bending of the power cord caused by forcibly inserting the plug 2, reducing safety hazards when using the socket, and making it easier for users to place the device according to the socket direction, making it more convenient to use.
[0033] Furthermore, a first rotation limiting protrusion 23 is provided on the side wall of the rotating part 22, and a rotating slide 13 is provided on the side wall of the rotating hole 12. A second rotation limiting protrusion 14 is provided on the rotating slide 13. The first rotation limiting protrusion 23 is movably disposed on the rotating slide 13, and the second rotation limiting protrusion 14 is located on the rotation circumference of the first rotation limiting protrusion 23. In this embodiment, the second rotation limiting protrusion 14 can limit the rotation of the first rotation limiting protrusion 23, so that the rotating part 22 can only rotate within a 180-degree angle range, avoiding the rotating part 22 from rotating too much and thus breaking the electrical connection between the plug 2 and the heater body 1.
[0034] Furthermore, a positioning hole 24 is provided on the side of the rotating part 22 near the plug fixing member 3, and a positioning protrusion 31 is provided on the plug fixing member 3, which is inserted into the positioning hole 24.

The clamping shell 16 is provided with two opposing second buckles 161, which are respectively fastened to the outer side walls on opposite sides of the heating element fixing shell 6.
[0039] In this embodiment, when the clamping shell 16 is installed, the second buckle 161 can clamp the heating element fixing shell 6. The wall of the heating element fixing shell 6 is squeezed inward after being subjected to force, so that the first buckle 62 can tightly hold the heating element 5, thereby improving the structural stability of the heating element 5.
[0040] Furthermore, a fan 7 is provided below the heating element 5, and an air inlet 18 is provided on the housing 15. The air inlet 18 is located below the fan 7.
