Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hair dryer technology, specifically a hair dryer installation structure, which optimizes the positioning stability and structural compactness of the motor mounting components inside the hair dryer. Background Technology
[0002] In hair dryer product design, the motor, as the core power component, directly affects the safety and lifespan of the entire machine due to the reliability of its fixing structure. Traditional fixing solutions mainly involve two technical approaches: 1. Clip-on positioning structure: Current technology commonly uses a motor mounting cylinder nested within the motor body for fixing. The positioning groove or limiting ring on the outer wall of the motor mounting cylinder aligns with a pre-set elastic clip on the inner wall of the hair dryer. While this structure offers the advantage of convenient assembly, stress concentration can easily occur at the interface between the clip and the groove when the product is subjected to accidental drop impact, leading to clip breakage or plastic deformation, posing a risk of the motor assembly detaching from the hair dryer. 2. Screw-fastened positioning ring structure: To improve fixing reliability, some models use a positioning ring fitted around the outer circumference of the motor, secured to the inner wall of the hair dryer by multiple circumferentially distributed screws. While this solution enhances structural rigidity, it introduces significant drawbacks. The addition of the positioning ring and screws forces an increase in the radial dimension of the hair dryer, and the narrow internal operating space of the hair dryer restricts the accessibility of assembly tools, significantly impacting production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
