Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed.

[0030] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure. These relative terms include, for example, "inside," "outside," "middle," "outer," "below," "below," "above," "front," "back," etc. Such spatial relative terms are used to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, other than those depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a positional flip, orientation change, or change of motion, these directional indications will change accordingly. For instance, an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features." Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] This embodiment provides a lifting component, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, the device includes a suspension frame 1, a clamping assembly 2, and a housing 3. The suspension frame 1 is connected to the housing 3 via the clamping assembly 2. The clamping assembly 2 includes a first support clamp 4 and a second support clamp 5. The first support clamp 4 is connected to the housing 3, and the suspension frame 1 is positioned between the first support clamp 4 and the second support clamp 5. The second support clamp 5 is connected to the first support clamp 4 to clamp the suspension frame 1. Through the design of the clamping assembly 2, the suspension frame 1 is positioned between the two support clamps, allowing the suspension frame 1 to move vertically, thereby achieving height adjustment. Users can adjust the height of the suspension frame 1 according to their height or specific needs to meet the usage needs of different people. Furthermore, when storing, the suspension frame 1 is folded up by adjusting the relative positions of the two support clamps and the suspension frame 1. The adjustable and foldable characteristics of the lifting assembly in this embodiment make it more flexible and practical in limited spaces such as bathrooms. It can be folded up when not in use and unfolded and adjusted to a suitable height when needed.

[0033] Furthermore, the first support clip 4 includes a first connecting ear 6 and a first clamping part 7, with at least two of the first connecting ears 6 connected to the first clamping part 7. The second support clip includes a second connecting ear 8 and a second clamping part 9, with the second connecting ear 8 and the second clamping part 9 connected. Both the first clamping part 7 and the second clamping part 9 have arc-shaped inner walls to provide a larger contact area and increase the clamping force on the suspension bracket 1.

[0034] The second connecting ear 8 is correspondingly disposed to the first connecting ear 6, and the second clamping part 9 is correspondingly disposed to the first clamping part 7. Specifically, screw holes are provided on the first connecting ear 6 and the second connecting ear 8, and a fixing post 17 is provided on the housing 3. The screw passes through the screw hole and is connected to the fixing post 17. While connecting the first support clamp 4 to the housing 3 with the screw, the first support clamp 4 and the second support clamp 5 can also be locked, so as to achieve stable clamping of the suspension frame 1.

[0035] Furthermore, the suspension bracket 1 and the clamping assembly 2 are located inside the housing 3. A through hole 10 is provided on the side wall of the housing 3, through which the suspension bracket 1 passes and connects to the clamping assembly 2. Since the clamping assembly 2 is hidden inside the housing 3, it is unaffected by the external environment; only the suspension bracket 1 extends through the through hole 10, resulting in a simpler and more aesthetically pleasing product appearance. Moreover, when the suspension bracket 1 is not needed, it can be retracted into the housing 3, reducing space occupation.

[0036] Furthermore, the lifting assembly in this embodiment also includes a damping element 11, which is disposed between the first support clamp 4 and the second support clamp 5, and the suspension frame 1 passes through the damping element 11. The damping element 11 can provide appropriate resistance for the lifting of the suspension frame 1, making the entire lifting process smooth and controllable. Specifically, the frictional damping force provided by the damping element 11 allows the suspension frame 1 to be fixed at any position even when hanging objects such as towels, enabling it to stay at any height adjusted by the user without the need for an additional locking mechanism. In this embodiment, the damping element 11 is made of silicone.

[0037] Specifically, the damping element 11 is annular, and the inner wall of the first support clamp and / or the second support clamp is provided with a strip groove 12. The damping element 11 is disposed in the strip groove 12, and the magnitude of the resistance of the damping element 11 depends on the inner diameter of the annular damping element 11.

[0038] Furthermore, a locking structure 13 is provided at the end of the suspension frame 1. The locking structure 13 protrudes from the outer wall of the suspension frame 1. By providing the locking structure 13, the suspension frame 1 is prevented from being pulled out of the through hole 10 on the housing 3 when adjusting the suspension frame 1.

[0039] Specifically, the locking structure 13 includes a limiting screw hole 14 and a limiting screw 15. The limiting screw hole 14 is disposed on the suspension bracket 1, and the limiting screw 15 is connected to the limiting screw hole 14.

[0040] Furthermore, the suspension frame 1 includes at least two support arms 16, each of which is connected to at least two sets of clamping assemblies 2. This ensures that the support arms 16 remain horizontal during adjustment, preventing one side from being higher than the other. The multiple sets of clamping assemblies 2 also make the lifting and lowering of the entire suspension frame 1 more synchronized and smooth. In addition, each support arm 16 has a locking structure 13 at its end to prevent it from being pulled out.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] An electric heater is provided. In this embodiment, the rear shell of the electric heater adopts the shell 3 in Embodiment 1. The adjustment of the hanging frame 1 is achieved by the shell 3 cooperating with the clamping component 2 in Embodiment 1.
