[0036] The technical solution of this embodiment will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0037] like Figures 1-10 As shown, this embodiment provides a multi-angle drying device. A housing 100 is placed on a base 200, and a drying system 300 is disposed inside the base 200. The multi-angle drying device is connected to the first air outlet of the drying system 300. The multi-angle drying device includes a baffle assembly 10 and a drive assembly. The baffle assembly 10 is rotatably disposed in the housing 100 and its opening and closing angle is controllable. The drive assembly is used to drive the baffle assembly 10 to rotate. The baffle assembly 10 has at least a closed state and an open state. In the closed state, the baffle assembly 10 blocks the first air outlet of the drying system 300. In the open state, the baffle assembly 10 can guide the drying airflow of the first air outlet toward the user at different angles for drying.

[0038] On the other hand, the toilet includes a multi-angle drying device, a fixed seat, a drying system 300, and a toilet body. Both the drying system 300 and the multi-angle drying device are installed in the fixed seat, which is embedded inside the toilet body.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the baffle assembly 10 of the multi-angle drying device is rotatably disposed within the housing 100, and its opening and closing angle is controllable, allowing the drying airflow at the first air outlet of the drying system 300 to be blown at different angles. Specifically, the baffle assembly 10 has at least a closed state and an open state. In the closed state, it can block the first air outlet, and in the open state, it can guide the drying airflow from the first air outlet toward the user at different angles, thereby changing the contact area between the drying airflow and the user, achieving a multi-angle, large-area drying effect that can be opened and closed repeatedly. Furthermore, the baffle assembly 10 can be driven to rotate by a drive component, thus controlling the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10 by controlling the drive component, facilitating personalized control by the user, improving drying efficiency while enhancing the user's product experience.

[0040] The specific structure of the multi-angle drying device in this embodiment will be described below.

[0041] like Figures 3-10 As shown, in this embodiment, the multi-angle drying device is mounted on the housing 100 and connected to the first air outlet of the drying system 300 mounted on the base 200. The housing 100 covers the base 200, thereby fixing both the multi-angle drying device and the drying system 300 within the accommodating space formed by the housing 100 and the base 200. Specifically, in this embodiment, the multi-angle drying device includes a baffle assembly 10, a drive assembly, and a rotating shaft 30. Optionally, the rotating shaft 30 passes through the baffle assembly 10 and is fixed in the housing 100. The drive assembly is also fixed in the housing 100 and connected to the baffle assembly 10. Specifically, the baffle assembly 10 is rotatably mounted in the housing 100 via the rotating shaft 30, and the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10 is controlled by the drive assembly to ensure a power source. For example, in this embodiment, the baffle assembly 10 has at least a closed state and an open state. In the closed state, the baffle assembly 10 blocks the first air outlet of the drying system 300, thereby blocking the first air outlet, and no drying operation is performed at this time. In the open state, the baffle assembly 10 can guide the drying airflow of the first air outlet towards the user at different angles for drying. Moreover, by changing the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10, the drying angle of the drying airflow and the contact area between the drying airflow and the user are changed, so as to facilitate the user to control the drying angle and drying area using the drive component, thereby achieving personalized control while meeting the high-efficiency drying requirements.

[0042] like Figure 4As shown, the baffle assembly 10 includes a baffle 11 and an arc-shaped plate 12, with a gear portion 101 provided on the arc-shaped plate 12. A through hole 102 is provided at the connection between the baffle 11 and the arc-shaped plate 12. Optionally, the baffle 11 is arranged along a first direction, the arc-shaped plate 12 is arranged along a second direction, and the through hole 102 is arranged along a third direction, with the first, second, and third directions all located at the same pivot 30. Exemplarily, the baffle 11 and the arc-shaped plate 12 are arranged perpendicular to each other; other included angles may be used in other embodiments, which are not limited here. Further, the pivot 30 passes through the through hole 102, and both ends of the pivot 30 are fixed in the housing 100, thereby enabling the baffle 11 and the arc-shaped plate 12 to rotate relative to the pivot 30, thereby realizing the relative rotation between the baffle assembly 10 and the housing 100 to adjust the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10.

[0043] Combination Figures 5-10 As shown, specifically, an end face 201 is provided on the outer side of the housing 100. Exemplarily, the end face 201 can be arranged in a vertical direction; in other embodiments, the angle of the end face 201 can be adjusted as needed, which is not limited here. Further, the first air outlet of the drying system 300 is arranged in a horizontal direction to ensure that the generated drying airflow can be blown horizontally; in other embodiments, the direction of the first air outlet can also be adjusted to improve the airflow effect. Exemplarily, a second air outlet is provided on the end face 201 of the housing 100, and the first air outlet and the second air outlet of the drying system 300 are correspondingly arranged. The baffle assembly 10 in the multi-angle drying device is rotatably arranged at the second air outlet. Thus, by blocking or opening the second air outlet through the baffle assembly 10 in the multi-angle drying device, the channel of the drying airflow blowing channel in the first air outlet can be controlled, and by changing the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10, the air outlet angle and the area covered by the airflow can be changed.

[0044] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, optionally, when the baffle assembly 10 is in the closed state, the outer side of the baffle 11 and the end face 201 are on the same plane. At this time, the baffle 11 can completely cover the first air outlet of the drying system 300 and completely close the second air outlet on the end face 201, making the accommodating space a closed space. Furthermore, to prevent water or dirt from splashing in, the drying system 300 will not be activated. Exemplarily, when the baffle assembly 10 is in the closed state, the baffle 11 is arranged vertically. In other embodiments, the angle of the baffle 11 can also be set as needed, and this is not limited here. Further, in this embodiment, the open state of the baffle assembly 10 includes at least two states: partially open and fully open. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when partially open, the included angle between the inner side of the baffle 11 and the end face 201 is set as the first included angle. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, when fully open, the angle between the inner side of the baffle 11 and the end face 201 is set to a second angle, which is greater than the first angle. Thus, the baffle 11 switches back and forth between the three states of closed, partially open and fully open, which can change the blowing direction and drying area of ​​the drying airflow, improve the user experience and increase the drying efficiency.

[0045] For example, in this embodiment, the rotation and opening of the baffle 11 ensures that the drying airflow from the first air outlet of the drying system 300, after passing through the second air outlet on the housing 100, is blown upwards, with no downward blowing. This ensures sufficient contact between the drying airflow and the user while avoiding waste of airflow resources. For example, in this embodiment, the second included angle can be set to 90°. Thus, as the baffle assembly 10 opens from the closed state to the fully open state, the blowing angle of the drying airflow continuously increases, and the contact area between the drying airflow and the user gradually increases, thereby improving drying efficiency. For example, the rotation angle of the baffle 11 relative to the rotating shaft 30 is controllable to meet the user's drying needs.

[0046] Specifically, one side of the arc-shaped plate 12 is connected to the baffle 11, and a gear portion 101 is provided on the arc-shaped edge between the two sides. Specifically, the teeth of the gear portion 101 are arranged facing inward for connecting to the drive assembly. Exemplarily, the included angle between the two sides is a third included angle, which can be set as an obtuse angle. In other embodiments, the value of the third included angle can also be adjusted according to the position of the drive assembly and the maximum opening angle of the baffle 11, which is not limited here.

[0047] like Figures 4-10 As shown, in this embodiment, the driving assembly includes a driving member 20 and a fixing member 40, and the driving member 20 includes a motor and a driving gear 21. Specifically, the outer side of the driving gear 21 is provided with teeth, the driving gear 21 is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the driving gear 21 meshes with the gear part 101. Thus, after the motor starts, the driving gear 21 rotates. Under the meshing action of the gear part 101 and the driving gear 21, the arc plate 12 drives the baffle 11 to rotate about the rotating shaft 30, thereby achieving different opening and closing effects of the baffle assembly 10. For example, by setting an intelligent control system to be connected to the motor for communication, the start and stop of the motor can be intelligently controlled or manually controlled by the user to control the opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10. Furthermore, the specific opening and closing angle of the baffle assembly 10 can also be adjusted by the operating software on the mobile device. The specific implementation can be set according to actual needs.

[0048] Furthermore, the fixing member 40 is installed outside the motor in the drive member 20 and is mounted in the housing 100 by screws or other fasteners to ensure stable installation of the motor and provide a better working environment for its stable operation. Furthermore, the drive gear 21 extends out of the fixing member 40 to ensure stable meshing between the drive gear 21 and the gear section 101. Specifically, the drive member 20 is fixed inside the housing 100 by the fixing member 40, meaning the position of the drive gear 21 does not change. After the motor starts, the drive gear 21 rotates, and the arc-shaped plate 12 rotates under the drive of the drive gear 21, causing the baffle 11 to rotate synchronously about the rotating shaft 30, opening the second air outlet on the end face 201 at different angles to blow drying air to the user. For example, when the baffle 11 is at its maximum opening angle and in the fully open state, the drive gear 21 is on the left side of the gear section 101. Specifically, in this embodiment, the drive gear 21 is located at the leftmost position of the gear section 101, thereby limiting the rotation range.

[0049] The specific structure of the toilet in this embodiment is described below.

[0050] like Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the toilet includes the aforementioned multi-angle drying device, a fixed base, a drying system 300, and a toilet body. Optionally, the fixed base includes a housing 100 and a base 200, and the toilet body includes a seat 400, a bowl 500, and a lid 600. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first air outlet of the drying system 300 is connected to the second air outlet on the housing 100. The multi-angle drying device is rotatably disposed at the second air outlet, thereby opening and closing the drying airflow in the first air outlet through the blowing channel at the second air outlet. Furthermore, under different opening and closing effects of the multi-angle drying device, different angles of the drying airflow are achieved, as well as changes in the contact area with the user.

[0051] Specifically, the drying system 300 is mounted on the base 200, and the multi-angle drying device is mounted on the housing 100. Further, the housing 100 covers the base 200, thus the housing 100 and the base 200 internally enclose a receiving space, within which both the drying system 300 and the multi-angle drying device are located. Optionally, the base 200 is embedded inside the top of the tub 500 to be close to the user and ensure drying effect. Further, the housing 100 is located above the tub 500, and the seat cushion 400 and the top cover 600 are sequentially rotatably mounted on the housing 100 to ensure convenient use by the user.

[0052] For example, when drying is not in operation, neither the motor in the drive assembly nor the drying system 300 works. At this time, the baffle assembly 10 completely blocks the second air outlet on the housing 100, thus closing the accommodating space. Further, during drying, the drying motor in the drying system 300 is driven and generates airflow. The motor in the drive assembly also starts, and the opening angle of the baffle assembly 10 can be adjusted according to the angle set by the user through a relevant intelligent control system or control program on a mobile device. This allows the drying airflow to be blown from the open angle of the baffle assembly 10 until it reaches the drying area. For example, during the drying process, the user can still control the opening angle of the baffle assembly 10 to achieve multi-angle drying, large-area drying, and reciprocating opening and closing for drying, meeting the demand for high-efficiency drying.

[0053] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
