Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heater technology, specifically to a compact heater. Background Technology

[0002] A heater is an electrical appliance that uses electrical energy to convert into heat and provides warmth to the environment or human body through contact conduction, radiation, convection, etc. Heaters are usually equipped with heating elements and have heat dissipation vents on their main structure so that the heat generated by the heating elements can be dissipated from the vents to provide warmth.

[0003] In existing technologies, some heaters are also equipped with fan components so that the heat generated by the heating element can be quickly blown out from the air outlet, facilitating rapid heating of small areas or localized spaces. For the heating and fan components, workers need to use appropriate installation tools and screws to install them one by one in their predetermined positions. However, due to space limitations in the overall ring-shaped heater body, tools can easily get stuck in the heater body, or there may be insufficient operating space for the installation tools, making it impossible to use them properly or tighten screws. Therefore, the compactness and structural design of this product need further optimization and improvement. Utility Model Content
