This design not only enhances the product's aesthetics but also improves its practicality and reliability, providing users with a superior product experience.
[0050] The inner ring 2 has a stepped retaining ring 22 along its edge, and the lampshade is embedded in the stepped retaining ring 22. The design of the stepped retaining ring 22 is another innovation of this utility model. It allows the lampshade to be more firmly fixed to the inner ring 2, while providing a better sealing effect and effectively preventing hot air leakage. This design not only improves the aesthetics of the product, but also significantly improves the stability of the overall structure.
[0051] This embodiment provides a bathroom heater air outlet structure, the key feature of which is that an inner retaining ring 23 is provided on the outer panel 1. The inner retaining ring 23 can be embedded in the heater, thereby achieving a tight connection between the air outlet and the heater.
[0052] Specifically, the outer panel 1 is the main outer shell of the air outlet structure. Its overall structural design is used to support and protect the internal components while guiding airflow. In this embodiment, an inner retaining ring 23 is specially designed at the inner edge of the outer panel 1. The shape of the inner retaining ring 23 matches the embedded structure of the heater, allowing it to be precisely embedded in the corresponding position of the heater. This embedded design not only ensures a firm connection between the air outlet and the heater but also effectively prevents the air outlet from loosening or shifting during use.
[0053] The inner retaining ring 23 is made of the same material as the outer panel 1, typically a sturdy metal or high-strength plastic, to ensure sufficient strength and durability. During installation, the inner retaining ring 23 fits tightly with the heater's embedded structure, forming a stable integrated structure. This design not only simplifies the installation process but also improves installation reliability, enabling the air outlet to operate stably for extended periods.
[0054] The embedded connection between the inner retaining ring 23 and the heater significantly enhances the structural stability of the air outlet. Even under external impact or vibration during long-term use, the air outlet will not easily loosen or detach. This design not only extends the product's lifespan but also provides users with a safer and more reliable experience.
[0055] The outer panel 1 has raised ribs 13 around its outer ring. As the main outer shell of the air outlet, the outer panel 1 has these raised ribs 13 specially designed around its outer ring. The raised ribs 13 are protruding structures along the outer edge of the outer panel 1, and their main function is to enhance the structural strength and stability of the outer panel 1. In actual use, the air outlet may be affected by various external forces, such as collisions and compression. The presence of the raised ribs 13 can effectively disperse these external forces and prevent the outer panel 1 from deforming or being damaged.
[0056] The design of the outer panel rib 13 has been carefully optimized; its height, width, and shape are calculated and adjusted according to actual usage requirements and mechanical principles. By setting the outer panel rib 13, the overall strength of the outer panel 1 is significantly improved. During long-term use, even under frequent external impacts, the outer panel 1 can maintain stable structural performance, thus ensuring the normal function of the air outlet. The outer panel rib 13 also has a decorative function. Its unique design makes the air outlet more aesthetically pleasing and enhances the overall quality of the product. This design not only meets the user's functional needs but also their aesthetic requirements.
