Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, and more specifically, to a flipping component, a humidifier, and a heating device. Background Technology
[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance that increases the humidity in a room. Humidifiers can humidify a specific room or be connected to a boiler or central air conditioning system to humidify the entire building.
[0003] Chinese invention patent with publication number CN103747828B discloses a humidifier and a layered heating element. The humidifier includes: a basin suitable for containing liquid; and a heating device, which includes: a metal hot plate and a heating element having copper or alloy or positive temperature coefficient heating rails to provide heat to heat the liquid.
[0004] The aforementioned humidifiers humidify the surrounding environment by heating a liquid, causing it to vaporize. Existing humidifiers typically use an exhaust grille to guide the humidifying gas through the outlet. Users adjust the exhaust direction by adjusting the angle of the grille's baffles. However, when the contact area between the heated steam and the grille baffles is too large, condensation occurs, causing water droplets to drip. Utility Model Content

[0043] In this utility model, "first" and "second" do not represent a specific quantity or order, but are merely used to distinguish names.
[0044] On the one hand, such as Figures 1-6As shown, a flipping component in one embodiment of the present invention includes a rotating base 1 and an air outlet base 2 rotatably connected to the rotating base 1 via a rotating structure 3. The rotating base 1 has an arcuate portion 11, an air inlet structure 12 disposed on the arcuate portion 11, and an air outlet structure 13. The air inlet structure 12 includes a first air inlet hole 121 and a second air inlet hole 122 that are angularly spaced along the axis of the arcuate portion 11. The air outlet structure 13 includes a first air outlet channel, and the first air outlet starting end 131 of the first air outlet channel is provided with... The air outlet seat 2 is located on the inner arc surface of the arc portion 11 and adjacent to the first air inlet 121; the air outlet seat 2 is provided with a rotating portion 21 adapted to the arc portion 11, a first connecting groove 22, a second connecting groove 23 and a second air outlet channel 24 provided on the rotating portion 21, the first connecting groove 22 adapted to the first air outlet starting end 131 and the first air inlet 121, and the second air outlet channel 24 includes a second air inlet starting end 241 provided on the second connecting groove 23 and an outwardly arranged air outlet nozzle 242.
[0045] The aforementioned flipping component switches the air outlet connection state of the first air inlet 121 or the second air inlet 122 by rotating the air outlet seat 2 relative to the rotating seat 1, thereby adjusting the air outlet direction. This avoids excessive contact between the heating steam and the fence baffle, which could cause dripping. Specifically, when the first connecting groove 22 is connected to the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet start 131, the humidifying gas exits from the fixed first air outlet channel; when the second connecting groove 23 is connected to the second air inlet 122, the humidifying gas exits from the second air outlet channel 24 of the air outlet seat 2.
[0046] In one embodiment, the angular interval between the first air inlet 121 and the second air inlet 122 in the projection direction is between 5° and 30°. Thus, by limiting the angular interval between the first air inlet 121 and the second air inlet 122 in the projection direction, a larger swing angle can be covered when the air outlet switches from the first air inlet 121 to the second air inlet 122, thereby achieving the effect of directly humidifying and steaming the user's face.
[0047] In one embodiment, the angle interval is 15°, and the arc length of the first connecting groove 22 is adapted to the angle interval. Specifically, the arc length angle of the first connecting groove 22 is greater than or equal to 15°. Thus, the air outlet angle of the air nozzle 242 relative to the horizontal plane is greater than 30°, and can reach a maximum of 60°, fully covering the user's actual needs.
[0048] In one embodiment, the air outlet seat 2 includes a seat body 25 and a seat cover 26 snapped onto the seat body 25; the rotating structure 3 includes rotating posts 31 disposed on both sides of the seat cover 26 and a rotating flange assembly 32 disposed on the rotating seat 1. Specifically, the rotating flange assembly 32 is provided with an insertion groove for guiding the rotating posts 31. Thus, by inserting the rotating posts 31 into the rotating flange assembly 32, a detachable rotating connection is easily achieved.
[0049] On the other hand, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a humidifier according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a humidifying cover 4 and a flipping component 5; the humidifying cover 4 is provided with a mounting groove 41 adapted to the rotating seat 1; the upper surface of the air outlet seat 2 is flush with the upper surface of the humidifying cover 4. Thus, when the first connecting groove 22 is connected to the first air inlet 121 and the first air outlet 131, the humidifying gas comes out from the fixed first air outlet channel, and the upper surface of the air outlet seat 2 is flush with the upper surface of the humidifying cover 4, which improves the user experience.
[0050] In one embodiment, the first air outlet end 132 of the first air outlet channel is upwardly oriented, and the air outlet nozzle 242 switches between a horizontal state and an inclined state as the air outlet seat 2 rotates relative to the rotating seat 1. Thus, by rotating the air outlet seat 2 relative to the rotating seat 1, the air outlet connection state of the first air inlet 121 or the second air inlet 122 is switched, thereby allowing humidifying gas to be ejected from the first air outlet end 132 or the inclined air outlet nozzle 242.
[0051] In one embodiment, the mounting groove 41 has recessed grooves 42 on both sides that fit the air outlet seat 2. This allows the user to easily rotate the air outlet seat 2 by inserting their fingertips into the recessed grooves 42, thereby adjusting the air outlet direction.
[0052] In one embodiment, the flipping component 5 is connected to the humidifying cover 4 via a snap-fit structure, which includes elastic snap fasteners disposed on both sides of the rotating seat 1.
[0053] On the other hand, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 , Figure 9 As shown, a heating device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a heating body 6 and a humidifier 7. The heating body 6 includes a heating shell 61 with a heating cavity, a heating component 62 disposed within the heating shell 61, and a heating pot 63 disposed within the heating cavity. The humidifier cover 4 is rotatably connected to the heating shell 61. Thus, the heating component 62 heats the heating pot 63 within the heating cavity, causing the liquid within the heating pot 63 to evaporate and form humidifying gas.
[0054] In one embodiment, the rotating seat 1 includes an upper seat shell 101 and a lower seat shell 102 that engages with the upper seat shell 101, the upper seat shell 101 and the lower seat shell 102 forming an air-containing cavity; the arcuate portion 11 is disposed on the upper seat shell 101, the lower seat shell 102 is provided with a lower inlet, and the lower inlet is provided with a sealing guide sleeve 103; the humidifying cover 4 is provided with an air inlet adapted to the sealing guide sleeve 103. Thus, after the humidifying gas enters the air-containing cavity from the air inlet, it enters the flipping component 5 from the first air inlet 121 or the second air inlet 122.
[0055] In one embodiment, a water-filling component 8 is also included; the water-filling component 8 includes a water-filling nozzle 81 disposed on the humidifying cover 4, a water storage tank 82, and a connecting pipe 83 connecting the water-filling nozzle 81 and the water storage tank 82. Specifically, a water pump is provided between the water-filling nozzle 81 and the water storage tank 82, and the water pump 1 pumps water from the water storage tank 82 to the water-filling nozzle 81. In this way, by spraying water onto the heating pot 63 through the water-filling nozzle 81, damage to the heating element caused by dry burning due to water evaporation in the heating pot 63 can be avoided, thus extending the usage time and improving the service life.
[0056] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0057] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
