[0160] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0161] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features described in this disclosure can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0162] Unless otherwise stated, the exemplary implementations / embodiments shown are to be understood as providing exemplary features of various details that provide ways in which the technical concepts of this disclosure can be implemented in practice. Therefore, unless otherwise stated, the features of various implementations / embodiments may be additionally combined, separated, interchanged and / or rearranged without departing from the technical concepts of this disclosure.

[0163] Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of a body dryer according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of a dryer according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.

[0164] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the dryer of this disclosure includes a fixed base 101 and a rotating base 102. When the dryer of this disclosure is used, the fixed base 101 can be placed on a generally level ground, thereby enabling the dryer of this disclosure to be configured as a vertical device and to be easily moved. Accordingly, the dryer can be placed in different locations in the bathroom for user convenience.

[0165] The present disclosure discloses a base structure for a hair dryer formed together with a rotating base 102 and a fixed base 101. Specifically, the rotating base 102 is rotatably disposed on the fixed base 101, and the axis of rotation of the rotating base 102 is a straight line in the vertical direction. Thus, when the fixed base 101 of the present disclosure is set (e.g., fixed) on the ground, the air outlet direction of the hair dryer can be controlled by controlling the rotation of the rotating base 102 relative to the fixed base 101, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the air outlet direction of the hair dryer.

[0166] See again Figure 1 and Figure 2 The body dryer disclosed herein may further include an air outlet module 200 and an air outlet direction control module 300. In one specific embodiment, the body dryer of this disclosure may include two air outlet modules 200, which are interconnected (including direct connection and indirect connection via the air outlet direction control module 300 described below) and stacked in the height direction (i.e., vertical direction), such that the stacked air outlet modules 200 are higher than most users. In a preferred embodiment, the uppermost air outlet structure 220 of the stacked air outlet modules 200 is higher than the neck of the user, thereby enabling the body dryer of this disclosure to provide airflow to at least a portion of the user's body to dry the user's body.

[0167] For ease of description, the upper air outlet module 200 will be referred to as the upper air outlet module, and the lower air outlet module 200 will be referred to as the lower air outlet module. Those skilled in the art will understand that although different technical terms are used to refer to these two air outlet modules 200, the upper air outlet module and the lower air outlet module can have the same structure.

[0168] In a preferred embodiment, the air outlet modules 200 of this disclosure can have identical structures. Therefore, the air outlet modules 200 of this disclosure can be manufactured using the same process, thereby reducing the overall manufacturing cost of the dryer and improving its market competitiveness. Furthermore, when a user purchases the dryer, they can easily assemble the various components together, making it convenient for the user.

[0169] The air outlet direction control module 300 disclosed herein can control the air outlet direction of the air outlet structure of the air outlet module 200.

[0170] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the two air outlet modules 200 can be connected via the air outlet direction control module 300. Specifically, the upper end of the lower air outlet module is fixed to the air outlet direction control module 300, which is located above the lower air outlet module. The lower end of the upper air outlet module is fixed to the air outlet direction control module 300, so the upper air outlet module is located entirely above the air outlet direction control module 300.

[0171] In one specific embodiment, the air outlet direction control module 300 may include an intermediate housing, which is fixedly connected to the upper air outlet module and the lower air outlet module, respectively. Additionally, when the air outlet modules have the same structure, the intermediate housing can be fixedly connected to the air outlet module adjacent to the intermediate housing.

[0172] At least a portion of the drive assembly 310 described below can be disposed inside the intermediate housing. Specifically, the intermediate transmission member 314 of this disclosure can be located outside the intermediate housing, the drive device 311 can be fixed to the intermediate housing, and components such as the drive device 311, the first connecting rod 312, and the second connecting rod 313 can be located inside the intermediate housing.

[0173] The air outlet direction control module 300 disclosed herein is configured such that the interval between the lowest air outlet structure 220 in the upper air outlet module and the highest air outlet structure 220 in the lower air outlet module (this interval can be referred to as the first distance) is the same as or approximately the same as the interval between two adjacent air outlet structures 220 in the lower air outlet module. Thus, overall, the air outlet structures 220 of the dryer are distributed at approximately equal intervals in the vertical direction.

[0174] Furthermore, the dryer disclosed herein can still be used by users even when it only includes one air outlet module 200. In other words, the dryer disclosed herein can still be used even when it does not include the upper air outlet module 200.

[0175] Those skilled in the art will understand that the air outlet direction control module 300 of this disclosure can also be located in other positions. For example, the air outlet direction control module 300 can be located below or above the two air outlet modules 200, etc., which will not be described in detail in this disclosure.

[0176] The structure of the air outlet module 200 will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0177] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an air outlet module according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 This is a structural schematic diagram of an air outlet module according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle. Figure 5 This is a partial structural schematic diagram of an air outlet module according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0178] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the air outlet module 200 of this disclosure may include a support component 210, at least a portion of the outer surface of which can be formed as part of the outer surface of the air outlet module 200. In another implementation, the air outlet module 200 of this disclosure may also be disposed inside the cover component of the dryer, that is, the aforementioned support component 210 can be covered by the cover component of the dryer, thereby allowing for the design of the cover component of the dryer and making the dryer more aesthetically pleasing overall.

[0179] In one specific embodiment, the support assembly 210 can be formed by connecting two support members to each other. Specifically, the connecting surface between the two support members is a generally vertical surface, and the two support members have a generally symmetrical structure and can be symmetrically arranged along the vertical surface.

[0180] In one specific embodiment, the support component 210 can be directly or indirectly fixed to the rotating base 102, thereby allowing the air outlet module 200 to rotate at a certain angle relative to the fixed base 101, facilitating the user to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet module 200. In a preferred embodiment, the support component 210 can be fixed to the rotating base 102 by screws.

[0181] See again Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support component 210 of this disclosure can form a receiving cavity, within which an air outlet structure 220 is disposed. At this time, the number of receiving cavities is the same as the number of air outlet structures 220, and the position and shape of the receiving cavity determine the installation position and installation direction of the air outlet structure 220, etc.

[0182] In some embodiments, the air outlet module 200 of this disclosure further includes a plurality of air outlet structures 220. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, each air outlet module 200 may include three air outlet structures 220. Of course, each air outlet module 200 may also include other numbers of air outlet structures 220, and this disclosure does not limit the number of air outlet structures 220 included in each air outlet module 200.

[0183] Taking the air outlet module 200 as an example where it is vertically positioned, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure is also distributed vertically and spaced at preset distances (first distances). For example, two adjacent air outlet structures of the upper air outlet module have approximately the same first distance; two adjacent air outlet structures of the lower air outlet module have approximately the same second distance; the first distance and the second distance are approximately the same.

[0184] In other words, the two adjacent air outlet modules 200 are approximately the same distance apart. Thus, when the user is in a preset position near the air outlet module 200, the airflow provided by the two adjacent air outlet structures 220 can interfere with each other, and further enable the airflow provided by the air outlet module 200 to form a complete airflow area from top to bottom. At this time, the user will not feel that part of his body is not provided with airflow in the vertical direction, thus improving the user experience.

[0185] In a preferred embodiment, in an air outlet module 200, the distance between the uppermost air outlet structure 220 and the upper end of the air outlet module 200 is less than the first distance; similarly, the distance between the lowermost air outlet structure 220 and the lower end of the air outlet module 200 is also less than the first distance; thus, the air outlet module 200 of this disclosure can be used in conjunction with the air outlet direction control module 300, and the distance between the two air outlet structures 200 on the upper and lower sides of the air outlet direction control module 300 is the same as the first distance. Therefore, in the dryer of this disclosure, the distance between two adjacent air outlet structures 220 is approximately the same, and correspondingly, the dryer can output air relatively evenly in the vertical direction.

[0186] Specifically, the air outlet module 200 is configured in such a way that there is a third distance between the bottom air outlet structure of the upper air outlet module and the top air outlet structure of the lower air outlet module, with the first, second, and third distances being approximately the same. Alternatively, in two adjacent air outlet modules in the vertical direction, there is a third distance between the bottom air outlet structure of the upper air outlet module and the top air outlet structure of the lower air outlet module, with the first and third distances being approximately the same.

[0187] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the air outlet structure 220 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7This is a structural schematic diagram of the air outlet structure 220 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.

[0188] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure may include components such as housing assembly 221, fan component 222, and internal component 223.

[0189] The housing assembly 221 of the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure can be fixed to the support assembly 210 and is disposed within the receiving cavity of the support assembly 210. For example, the housing assembly 221 can be fixed to the support assembly 210 by multiple screws, thereby allowing the housing assembly 221 of this disclosure to be easily installed on or removed from the support assembly 210. In addition, when a certain air outlet structure 220 malfunctions, only that air outlet structure 220 needs to be replaced, reducing the maintenance difficulty of the entire dryer and reducing maintenance costs.

[0190] In a preferred embodiment, the housing assembly 221 can be formed by connecting two housing components to each other. Specifically, the connecting surface between the two housing components is a generally vertical surface, and the two housing components have a generally symmetrical structure and can be arranged symmetrically along the vertical surface.

[0191] The housing assembly 221 includes an inner wall for defining a gas flow path; that is, the housing assembly 221 of this disclosure is formed as a hollow structure, and the gas flow path is formed through this hollow structure. Specifically, a portion of the gas flow path is located within one housing component, and another portion of the gas flow path is located within another housing component.

[0192] A fan component 222 is disposed on the housing assembly 221. The fan component 222 is used to force gas to flow from the inlet section 221A to the outlet section 221E of the gas flow path. In a preferred embodiment, the fan component 222 can be provided with the inlet section 221A of the gas flow path. In this case, the inlet section 221A of the gas flow path is formed into a generally cylindrical structure. The fan component 222 can be selected as an axial flow fan, which can draw gas from the outside of the housing assembly 221 into the inside of the housing assembly 221, and allow gas to flow through the housing assembly 221, so that the gas can flow along the gas flow path.

[0193] Those skilled in the art should know that when the fan component 222 is in different working states, that is, when it is working at different power, the gas has different flow velocities in the gas flow path. Therefore, the dryer of this disclosure can meet the different power requirements of users.

[0194] The internal component 223 of this disclosure is disposed within the gas flow path of the housing assembly 221. The internal component 223 includes an outer wall that defines the gas flow path. In other words, the region between the outer wall of the internal component 223 and the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forms at least a portion of the gas flow path.

[0195] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a gas flow path according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a housing assembly (partial) according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0196] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the gas flow path of this disclosure, in addition to the inlet section 221A and the outlet section 221E, also includes a diffuser section 221B, an intermediate section 221C, and a converging section 221D. In this case, along the gas flow direction, the inlet section 221A, diffuser section 221B, intermediate section 221C, converging section 221D, and outlet section 221E are connected sequentially. The gas can then flow sequentially through these sections and be discharged from the outlet section 221E. Furthermore, adjacent sections 221A, 221B, 221C, and 221D form smooth connections.

[0197] In this disclosure, the cross-sectional area of ​​the diffuser section 221B gradually increases along the gas flow direction. This cross-section is perpendicular to the gas flow direction; unless otherwise specified, all cross-sections in this patent refer to sections perpendicular to the gas flow direction. In a preferred embodiment, the inlet section 221A and the diffuser section 221B can be smoothly connected. Thus, after the gas enters the diffuser section 221B from the inlet section 221A, the diffuser section 221B has a larger cross-sectional area than the inlet section 221A. Therefore, the gas will generate turbulence in the diffuser section 221B, and its flow velocity will decrease, thereby facilitating the heating of the gas in the gas flow path.

[0198] In a preferred embodiment, the diffuser section 221B includes a first direction and a second direction, both of which are perpendicular to the gas flow direction. Specifically, the plane formed by the first direction and the gas flow direction lies in a vertical plane, and the second direction is formed in a horizontal direction.

[0199] The inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forming the diffusion section 221B has a first dimensional change rate in a first direction and a second dimensional change rate in a second direction. The first dimensional change rate of the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forming the diffusion section 221B is greater than the second dimensional change rate of the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forming the diffusion section 221B. Therefore, the cross-section of the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forming the diffusion section 221B of this disclosure can be elliptical, wherein the major axis direction of the ellipse is the first direction and the minor axis direction of the ellipse is the second direction.

[0200] The first rate of change of size refers to the rate of change of size in the first direction along the gas flow direction, representing the amount of dimensional change of the inner wall in the first direction along a predetermined step size ΔX in the gas flow direction. Similarly, the second rate of change of size refers to the rate of change of size in the second direction along the gas flow direction. Unless otherwise specified, the first rate of change of size and the second rate of change of size in this disclosure have the same meaning.

[0201] By configuring the diffuser section 221B in this way, the dimensions of the gas flow path in the vertical direction (or in the first direction, which may be the same as the vertical direction, but preferably a different direction) can be lengthened for the first time to accommodate the exhaust requirements of the air outlet structure 220.

[0202] In other words, since the outlet section 221E is formed into an elongated structure, the vertical dimension (i.e., length) of this elongated structure is much larger than the horizontal dimension (i.e., width). Therefore, the dimension in the first direction of the diffuser section 221B of this disclosure can be brought closer to the length of the outlet section 221E. In addition, this arrangement of the diffuser section 221B also facilitates the heating of the gas.

[0203] Accordingly, the internal component 223 of this disclosure includes a first end portion 223A, which is disposed near the inlet section 221A of the gas flow path; wherein the first end portion 223A is disposed within the diffuser section 221B.

[0204] In other words, by setting the internal component 223, a gas flow path can be formed between the internal component 223 and the shell component 221. As a result, after the gas enters the diffusion section 221B, it will not converge towards the central area of ​​the entire gas flow path, but will diffuse directly outward, thereby giving the gas a better diffusion effect during the flow process.

[0205] In a preferred embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first end portion 223A gradually increases along the gas flow direction. Specifically, the first end portion 223A includes a first direction and a second direction, wherein both the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to the gas flow direction. For example, the first direction of the first end portion 223A is the same as the first direction of the aforementioned diffuser section 221B, and the second direction of the first end portion 223A is the same as the second direction of the aforementioned diffuser section 221B.

[0206] Furthermore, the first end portion 223A has a first rate of dimensional change in the first direction and a second rate of dimensional change in the second direction, with the first rate of dimensional change being greater than the second rate of dimensional change. Correspondingly, as the dimensions of the diffuser section 221B increase in the first and second directions, the area of ​​the diffuser section 221B also gradually increases.

[0207] In this disclosure, the cross-sectional area of ​​the intermediate section 221C remains essentially unchanged, thereby allowing gas to flow slowly and stably through the intermediate section 221C. At this time, the heating component 224 can be disposed in the intermediate section 221C, so that the heating component 224 can effectively heat the gas, enabling the exhaust structure 220 to provide hot air to the outside.

[0208] See again Figure 8 In the gas flow path of this disclosure, the cross-sectional area of ​​the contraction section 221D gradually decreases along the gas flow direction. As a result, the gas in the gas flow path can be contracted in the contraction section 221D to increase the gas flow velocity. Then, these gases will be discharged outward at a higher speed, so that the gas can be supplied to the surface of the human body at a higher speed, thereby accelerating the liquid evaporation process on the human body surface and reducing the drying time of the liquid on the human body surface.

[0209] Specifically, the contraction section 221D includes a first direction and a second direction, both of which are perpendicular to the gas flow direction. In other words, the first direction can be the same as the first direction of the diffusion section 221B described above, and the second direction can be the same as the second direction of the diffusion section 221B described above.

[0210] Along the gas flow direction, the size of the contraction section 221D increases in the first direction and decreases in the second direction. Specifically, the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 forming the contraction section 221D increases in the first direction and decreases in the second direction. Overall, the contraction section 221D can collect the heated gas (i.e., the gas after flowing through the heating assembly, which may not be heated at this point) and further supply it to the outlet section 221E. As described above, since the outlet section 221E is formed into an elongated structure, and its size (length) in the vertical direction is greater than that of the intermediate section 221C in the vertical direction, it is necessary to further increase the size of the gas flow path in the vertical direction in the contraction section 221D.

[0211] In addition, since the size (width) of the outlet section 221E is smaller than that of the middle section 221C in the horizontal direction, it is necessary to reduce the size of the gas flow path in the horizontal direction in the contraction section 221D.

[0212] Therefore, when the dryer of this disclosure is in use, as the gas flows through the contraction section 221D, it can be squeezed towards the center along the inner wall of the housing assembly 221 to adapt to the shape of the final outlet section 221E.

[0213] Because the gas is contracted in the contraction section 221D, the gas velocity is higher in the middle part of the vertical direction (i.e., along the length) of the outlet section 221E, while the gas velocity is lower at both ends. In other words, the airflow from the middle region of the outlet section 221E is relatively strong, while the airflow from both ends is relatively gentle. When this gas is delivered to a person, it can cause discomfort.

[0214] At this point, the aforementioned problem can be solved by the internal component 223. Specifically, the internal component 223 includes a second end 223B, which is located near the outlet section 221E of the gas flow path; wherein, the second end 223B is located within the contraction section 221D. Preferably, the contraction section 221D has a square outlet, and in the first direction, the free end of the second end 223B is located near the central region of the square outlet. Thus, by setting the second end 223B, the gas that converges towards the center (accounting for 60% of the high air volume in the center) can be effectively guided to both ends of the outlet section 221E, thereby ensuring that the standard deviation of the air velocity distribution of the gas discharged by the air outlet structure 220 is less than or equal to 0.8 m / s. At this time, when the airflow provided by the air outlet structure 220 blows onto the human body, the human body will not feel the difference in air velocity, thereby improving the user experience.

[0215] The central region of this disclosure is not a geometrically defined midpoint. In other words, the second end 223B of this disclosure can be positioned approximately near the middle of the outlet section 221E. In a preferred embodiment, the distance between the free end of the second end 223B and the upper end of the outlet section 221E is less than the distance between the free end of the second end 223B and the lower end of the outlet section. Therefore, when the gas flow path is inclined downwards, the uniformity of the gas discharged from the outlet section 221E can be improved.

[0216] In a preferred embodiment, the second end portion 223B includes a first direction and a second direction, wherein both the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to the gas flow direction, the second end portion 223B has a first dimensional change rate in the first direction, the second end portion 223B has a second dimensional change rate in the second direction, and the first dimensional change rate of the second end portion 223B is greater than the second dimensional change rate of the second end portion 223B.

[0217] In other words, in the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure, the contraction section 221D has a square outlet, and in the first direction, the free end of the second end 223B is close to the central region of the square outlet. Furthermore, the square outlet of the contraction section 221D is formed as an outlet section 221E.

[0218] Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a flow guiding component according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 11 This is a structural schematic diagram of a flow guide component according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle. Figure 12 This is a cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of a flow guide component according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 13 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a flow guide component according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.

[0219] like Figure 6 , Figures 10 to 13 As shown, the air outlet module 200 of this disclosure may further include a guide component 250 to guide the gas discharged from the air outlet structure 220 through the guide component 250, thereby providing the guided gas to the surface of the human body and drying the water droplets on the human body surface.

[0220] In this disclosure, a gas flow path is formed inside the air guide component 250. The gas discharged through the outlet section 221E of the air outlet structure 220 is guided by the air guide component 250, thereby providing the gas directionally to the surface of the human body, accelerating the evaporation of liquid on the human body surface and shortening the user's drying time. Specifically, the outlet section of the gas flow path is fluidly connected to the gas guide path, so that all the gas discharged through the outlet section 221E of the air outlet structure 220 can flow into the air guide component 250 and be guided by the air guide component 250. At this time, the gas discharged by the air outlet structure 220 in the dryer of this disclosure is not wasted, improving the energy utilization efficiency of the dryer.

[0221] In one specific embodiment, the housing assembly 221 further includes a mounting base 221F, which includes a receiving cavity in which a flow guiding member 250 is rotatably disposed, wherein the axis of rotation of the flow guiding member 250 is a generally vertical axis. Since the housing assembly 221 is formed by splicing two housing components, the mounting base 221F of this disclosure can also be formed by splicing two components. In other words, each of the two housing components of this disclosure includes a portion of the structural elements forming the mounting base 221F, and when the two housing components are assembled together, the entire housing assembly 221 will have the structural features of the mounting base 221.

[0222] In a preferred embodiment, the rotation of the airflow guide 250 includes reciprocating rotation within a preset angle range. More preferably, the preset angle range includes [-30°, 30°], and of course, the preset angle range can also be [-20°, 20°], or [-40°, 40°], etc. That is, when the airflow guide 250 of this disclosure rotates, it can rotate approximately 20°-40° relative to the central vertical plane of the dryer (i.e., the vertical plane at the joint of the two housing components) in two directions away from the central vertical plane. At this time, the gas discharged by the airflow guide 250 can be provided to the human body in the area between the left and right sides of the human body. Thus, the dryer of this disclosure can provide an oscillating airflow, which can be provided to the human body with a narrower width. Compared with the prior art, under the same power conditions, the gas flow rate of this disclosure is faster. When there are many droplets on the surface of the human body, the dryer of this disclosure can blow these liquids off, thereby reducing the drying time of the human body surface and improving the drying efficiency.

[0223] The following will combine Figures 10 to 13 The structure of the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure will be described.

[0224] like Figures 10 to 13As shown, the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure may include components such as a first flow guiding surface 251, a second flow guiding surface 252, an upper flow guiding surface 253, a lower flow guiding surface 254, and flow guiding blades.

[0225] The first guiding surface 251 and the second guiding surface 252 are used to restrict the gas flow path; wherein, the first guiding surface 251 and the second guiding surface 252 are configured as two opposing surfaces in the horizontal direction; the upper guiding surface 253 is located at the upper end of the first guiding surface 251 and the second guiding surface 252, and the lower guiding surface 254 is located at the lower end of the first guiding surface 251 and the second guiding surface 252, that is, the upper guiding surface 253 and the lower guiding surface 254 of this disclosure are formed as two opposing surfaces in the vertical direction. Furthermore, the upper guiding surface 253 and the lower guiding surface 254 are used to restrict the gas flow path.

[0226] Based on the above structure, the inlet of the gas guiding path formed by the first guiding surface 251, the second guiding surface 252, the upper guiding surface 253, and the lower guiding surface 254 of this disclosure is formed into a generally elongated structure, and the outlet of the gas guiding path is also formed into a generally elongated structure. The inlet and / or outlet of the gas guiding path of this disclosure is preferably rectangular.

[0227] The guide vanes of this disclosure are connected to the first guide surface 251 and the second guide surface 252. The guide vanes divide the gas flow path into multiple guide regions. Along the direction from the middle region of the guide component 250 to its upper and lower ends, the airflow direction of the gas discharged from each guide region is diffused. Therefore, in the dryer of this disclosure, the arrangement of the guide component 250 allows the airflow discharged from the dryer to have a larger size in the vertical direction and a smaller size in the horizontal direction. Furthermore, after the gas leaves the guide component 250, it continues to diffuse in the vertical direction and flows towards the human body. Based on this, the dryer of this disclosure can have fewer air outlet structures 220 arranged in the vertical direction, thereby reducing the cost of the dryer and increasing its market competitiveness.

[0228] In addition, the airflow guide component 250 enables the entire dryer to provide airflow more evenly in the vertical direction, thereby improving the user experience.

[0229] In this disclosure, the guide vane includes a central guide vane 255, which is located approximately in the center of the guide member 250 and is formed in a flat plate shape. The central guide vane 255 being located approximately in the center of the guide member 250 does not mean that it is located at the vertical center of the guide member 250, but rather in the approximately central region of the vertical direction. In a preferred embodiment, this vertical direction is the axial direction of the guide member.

[0230] In other words, in the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure, the middle flow guiding blade only needs to change the direction of gas flow. Therefore, this disclosure does not require a special design for the structure of the middle flow guiding blade 255. Furthermore, to ensure better airflow uniformity when the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure is used in conjunction with the air outlet structure 220.

[0231] Furthermore, the intermediate guide vane of this disclosure is configured with an inclined shape. Specifically, the intermediate guide vane 255 is inclined downward along the gas flow direction within the gas guide path. As a result, the guide vane 256 of this disclosure can combine with the downwardly inclined gas flow path and change the gas flow direction, thereby improving the dispersion effect of the entire guide component 250.

[0232] The guide vane disclosed herein also includes a side guide vane 256, which is disposed above and / or below the intermediate guide vane 255, wherein the upper and / or lower surfaces of the side guide vane 256 are in an outwardly convex arc shape.

[0233] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 12 As shown, the side guide vanes 256 of this disclosure are configured as four, with two side guide vanes 256 located above the middle guide vane 255 and the other two side guide vanes 256 located below the middle guide vane 255. Thus, the guide component 250 of this disclosure forms six guide regions through the arrangement of the guide vanes, allowing airflow to flow independently within these six guide regions.

[0234] Based on the structure of the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure, such as Figure 12 As shown, the outwardly convex arc of this disclosure refers to the convexity located away from the central region of the guide vane 250. Thus, the specially designed side guide vanes 256 enable the airflow to flow in a curved manner, resulting in better uniformity when this airflow is delivered to the human body, leading to greater comfort.

[0235] Furthermore, the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure needs to diffuse airflow upwards and downwards, and the side flow guiding vane 256 of this disclosure is inclined. Specifically, the side flow guiding vane 256 includes a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, wherein, along the gas flow direction inside the flow guiding component 250, the first end of the side flow guiding vane 256 is located upstream of the second end. At this time, the first end of the side flow guiding vane 256 is at a lower position than the second end, thereby allowing the side flow guiding vane 256 of this disclosure to be inclined, thus enabling the flow guiding component 250 of this disclosure to diffuse the airflow flowing through it upwards or downwards.

[0236] More preferably, there is a height difference between the first and second ends of the side guide vanes 256, and the height difference of the different side guide vanes 256 gradually increases along the direction from the middle region of the guide member 250 to the upper or lower end of the guide member 250. In other words, in the guide member 250 of this disclosure, the different side guide vanes 256 have different degrees of inclination along the direction from the middle region of the guide member 250 to the upper end of the guide member 250. Similarly, the different side guide vanes 256 also have different degrees of inclination along the direction from the middle region of the guide member 250 to the lower end of the guide member 250.

[0237] Therefore, the different guiding regions of this disclosure have different diffusion effects, and the gas flowing through the different guiding regions has different flow directions. Thus, the guiding component of this disclosure can diffuse the airflow more evenly.

[0238] In a preferred embodiment, the curvature of the side guide vanes 256 increases along the direction from the middle region of the guide member 250 to the upper or lower end of the guide member 250. Therefore, by setting guide vanes with different curvatures, the gas flowing through different guide regions will have different flow directions, resulting in different diffusion effects in different guide regions. The guide member of this disclosure can diffuse the airflow more uniformly.

[0239] In this disclosure, the upper guide surface 253 and the lower guide surface 254 are formed as outwardly convex arc surfaces. Therefore, when the guide component 250 of this disclosure is in use, the uppermost layer of airflow discharged by the guide component 250 has a certain contraction tendency, and correspondingly, the lowermost layer of airflow also has a certain contraction tendency. Consequently, the airflow discharged by the guide component 250 will not diffuse rapidly under the influence of air, thus preventing it from affecting the uniformity of the airflow provided to the human body surface. Therefore, the airflow discharged by the guide component 250 of this disclosure can be uniformly distributed and provided to the human body, improving the user experience.

[0240] like Figure 13As shown, the first guide surface 251 and the second guide surface 252 of this disclosure are formed in a symmetrical structure; moreover, the first guide surface 251 includes a first guide segment 251A and a second guide segment 251B connected to each other, wherein the first guide segment 251A is configured such that the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the gas guide path gradually decreases, and the second guide segment 251B is configured such that the longitudinal cross-sectional area of ​​the gas guide path remains approximately unchanged. The longitudinal cross-section is the cross-section perpendicular to the gas flow direction of the guide component 250.

[0241] Overall, the first guide surface 251 and the second guide surface 252 of this disclosure form an inverted trumpet-shaped structure. As a result, when the guide component 250 of this disclosure is used, it can further collect the airflow on the one hand and guide the airflow on the other hand, thereby improving the uniformity of the airflow of the guide component 250.

[0242] In one embodiment, the mounting base 221F includes an opening 221F1, and the outlet of the gas flow path is always located within the opening 221F1 during the reciprocating rotation of the guide member 250. In other words, the airflow discharged from the outlet of the gas flow path is not affected by the mounting base 221F, but is directly supplied to the human body through the opening 221F1 of the mounting base 221F. Therefore, the dryer of this disclosure does not waste airflow during use, thus improving energy efficiency.

[0243] On the other hand, as the guide component 250 reciprocates, the outlet section of the gas flow path is always located within the area between the first guide surface 251 and the second guide surface 252. In other words, regardless of the position of the guide component 250, all the gas in the outlet section of the gas flow path can flow to the guide component 250. Therefore, the dryer of this disclosure does not waste airflow during use, thus improving energy efficiency.

[0244] Figure 14 This is a schematic diagram of a body dryer according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 15 yes Figure 14 Enlarged schematic diagram of part A.

[0245] like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the gas flow path of this disclosure includes a central axis 221G. The central axis of the gas flow path is set downward along the gas flow direction within the gas flow path. Thus, when the dryer of this disclosure is in use, the gas discharged through the gas flow path can be provided to the human body in a generally downward direction, thereby blowing off the liquid on the surface of the human body, thereby accelerating the drying process of the human body surface and reducing the drying time of the human body surface.

[0246] In a preferred embodiment, the angle between the central axis of the gas flow path and the horizontal direction can be less than 10°, and preferably about 5°. Thus, the air outlet structure 220 can simultaneously meet the requirements of both the diffusion area of ​​the airflow and the downward movement of the airflow to blow away liquid from the surface of the human body, thereby improving the user experience.

[0247] In this disclosure, the central axis of the gas flow path is coaxially arranged with the central axis of the fan component 222; and the central axis of the gas flow path is coaxially arranged with the central axis of the internal component 223. That is to say, the central axis of the gas flow path in this disclosure can be defined by the central axes of the fan component 222 and the internal component 223. Accordingly, the airflow provided by the fan component 222 will not undergo significant turning during its flow within the gas flow path, thereby reducing the resistance during the gas flow process.

[0248] Furthermore, the diffuser section 221B of this disclosure is also coaxially arranged with the central axis of the gas flow path. Similarly, the axis of the intermediate section 221C is coaxially arranged with the central axis of the internal component 223. As a result, the airflow provided by the fan component 222 does not undergo significant directional changes when flowing within the gas flow path, reducing resistance during gas flow.

[0249] It should be noted that although the central axis of the gas flow path in this disclosure also passes through the contraction section 221D, it is not located in the middle of the contraction section 221D in the vertical direction, but in the middle region of the contraction section 221D.

[0250] It should also be noted that the flow guide component 250 of this disclosure is set approximately vertically, in which case the central axis of the gas flow path intersects with the centrally located flow guide vane. That is, the central axis of the gas flow path of this disclosure is set near the intermediate flow guide vane 255. One end of the intermediate flow guide vane 255 is located near the free end of the second end 223B of the internal component 223. Thus, the gas discharged from the air outlet structure 220 can still flow downwards after passing through the flow guide component 250, so that at least a portion of the gas in the airflow can be provided to the surface of the human body in a downwards direction and can blow away water droplets on the surface of the human body.

[0251] Furthermore, the airflow guide 250 of this disclosure provides a sweeping function. Accordingly, the airflow provided by the airflow guide 250 can blow away droplets on the human body surface. These droplets will flow downward and drip under the action of gravity, thereby reducing the drying time of the human body surface.

[0252] In this disclosure, by setting up a downwardly tilted air outlet structure 220 and a guide component 250 used in conjunction with the air outlet structure 220, not only can a downward airflow be provided to the user, but this airflow can also be evenly dispersed, thereby improving the user experience.

[0253] Figure 16 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a heating assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 17 This is a schematic diagram of the installation position of a heating assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 18 This is a structural schematic diagram of the mounting position of the heating assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle. Figure 19 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of some components of a heating assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0254] like Figures 16 to 19 As shown, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure may further include a heating component 224, which is disposed in the region between the internal component 223 and the housing component 221 and located within the gas flow path, to heat the gas flowing in the gas flow path. Therefore, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure can provide gas at different temperatures. For example, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure can discharge gas at different temperatures based on the user's selection, thereby enabling the dryer of this disclosure to effectively meet the needs of different users.

[0255] Furthermore, the temperature requirements of the air discharged by the same user differ depending on the season. Specifically, when using the dryer in winter, the temperature of the air discharged from the outlet structure 220 can be set higher so that the user does not feel cold and feels comfortable. When using the dryer in summer, the temperature of the air discharged from the outlet structure 220 can be set lower so that the user does not feel hot. In a more preferred embodiment, when using the dryer in summer, the heating component 224 can be in a non-operational state, meaning that the outlet structure 220 can provide unheated air to meet the user's needs.

[0256] In a preferred embodiment, the temperature of the gas discharged from the air outlet structure 220 is also variable during the same body drying process, thereby meeting the needs of different stages of the drying process. For example, in the first half of the body drying process, since there is a large amount of water on the surface of the body, the temperature of the gas can be set higher, so that the body can be dried quickly and the body will not feel cold during the evaporation of moisture; in the second half of the body drying process, since the water on the surface of the body continues to evaporate, there is less water on the surface of the body, and the temperature of the gas can be lowered, thereby saving energy and preventing the user from feeling hot.

[0257] The structure of the heating component 224 will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0258] like Figures 16 to 18 As shown, the heating assembly 224 of this disclosure may include an inner annular component 224A, an outer annular component 224B, and a heating component 224C.

[0259] The inner annular component 224A is fitted onto the inner component 223 and is located in the middle of the inner component 223. Specifically, the inner component 223 of this disclosure also includes an extension 223C, which extends from the end of the first end 223A near the second end 223B along the gas flow direction in the gas flow path. In a preferred embodiment, the first end 223A may be integrally formed with the extension 223C. Of course, the extension 223C may also be integrally formed with the second end 223B, and this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0260] At this time, the inner annular component 224A can be fitted onto the extension 223C, and the two ends of the inner annular component 224A can be restricted in position by the first end 223A and the second end 223B, thereby forming a stable and firm connection between the inner component 223 and the inner annular component 224A.

[0261] In the manufacturing process of the air outlet structure 220 disclosed herein, the inner annular component 224A can be first fitted onto the extension 223C, and then the second end 223B can be installed, thereby forming the inner annular component 224A and the internal component 223 into a whole.

[0262] The outer annular component 224B is located outside the inner annular component 224A, and allows gas to flow through the area between the outer annular component 224B and the inner annular component 224A; in a preferred embodiment, the outer annular component 224B and the inner annular component 224A may be arranged coaxially.

[0263] More specifically, both the outer annular component 224B and the inner annular component 224A can be formed into an elliptical shape, in which case an elliptical ring structure is formed between the inner annular component 224A and the outer annular component 224B.

[0264] The outer annular component 224B of this disclosure can be positioned by the housing assembly 221. Specifically, a stepped portion is formed on the housing assembly 221. Along the gas flow direction in the gas flow path, one end of the outer annular component 224B can be positioned by the fixed ring component 223D described below, and the other end can be positioned by the stepped portion. Thus, the outer annular component 224B can be firmly positioned in the gas flow direction and in the circumferential direction along the gas flow direction (because the outer circumferential surface of the elliptical outer annular component 224B can be closely fitted with the inner circumferential surface of the housing assembly 221).

[0265] The heating element 224C of this disclosure is disposed in the region between the inner annular component 224A and the outer annular component 224B, so as to heat the gas flowing between the inner annular component 224A and the outer annular component 224B by means of the heating element 224C.

[0266] In some embodiments, the heating assembly 224 further includes a partition plate 224D, at least a portion of which is located in the region between the inner annular component 224A and the outer annular component 224B, for dividing the region between the inner annular component 224A and the outer annular component 224B into a plurality of gas channels, thereby preventing the flow of gas in each gas channel from interfering with each other, and consequently improving the uniformity of gas flow in the air outlet structure 220.

[0267] Each gas flow channel is provided with a heating element 224C, or at least a portion of the heating element 224C is provided in each gas flow channel. In one embodiment of this disclosure, multiple heating elements 224C may be provided, and these heating elements 224C can be controlled independently or as a whole to heat the gas flowing through the gas flow channel. In another embodiment, the heating element 224C may be a heating wire, and a single heating wire may be provided. The heating wire may be wound and pass through the partition plate 224D. In this case, the partition plate 224D can support the heating wire and keep the heating wire in a fixed position.

[0268] A groove-like structure 223C1 is formed on the circumferential surface of the extension 223C; at least a portion of one end of the partition plate 224D is located within the groove-like structure 223C1 along a direction perpendicular to the gas flow path. Thus, the partition plate 224D of this disclosure can be positioned by the groove-like structure 223C1, for example, the groove-like structure 223C1 can limit the circumferential position of the partition plate 224D along the gas flow direction.

[0269] In a preferred embodiment, the groove structure 223C1 can extend along the gas flow direction and can be formed by two ridges protruding from the surface of the extension 223C, both of which also extend along the gas flow direction and are arranged in parallel.

[0270] The internal component 223 of this disclosure may further include a retaining ring component 223D, which is connected to the first end 223A via a spoke component 223E. The retaining ring component 223D is positioned by the housing component 221, thereby fixing the positional relationship between the internal component 223 and the housing component 221.

[0271] Therefore, since the position of the retaining ring component 223D can be fixed relative to the housing assembly 221, the position of the spoke component 223E can also be fixed. Based on this, the position of the spoke component 223E relative to the housing assembly 221 of this disclosure is also determined.

[0272] Then, along the gas flow direction in the gas flow path, one end of the separator 224D contacts the spoke member 223E and is positioned by the spoke member 223E. The other end of the separator 224D can be positioned by the second end 223B. For example, the portion of the other end of the separator 224D located within the aforementioned groove structure 223C1 can be positioned by the second end 223B (e.g., in pressure contact), thereby fixing the position of the separator 224D in the gas flow direction.

[0273] In the circumferential direction surrounding the gas flow direction, the position of the partition plate 224D is restricted by the aforementioned groove structure 223C1, thereby enabling the partition plate 224D to support the outer annular component 224B and prevent the entire internal component 223 and heating component 224 from shaking relative to the housing component 221.

[0274] An annular groove 221H is formed on the inner surface of the housing assembly 221. At least a portion of the retaining ring member 223D is located within the annular groove 221H, thereby restricting the position of the retaining ring member 223D. More preferably, a positioning groove 221J is provided on the bottom wall of the annular groove 221H of the housing assembly 221, and a positioning protrusion 223D1 is provided on the retaining ring member 223D. At least a portion of the positioning protrusion 223D1 is located within the positioning groove 221J, thereby allowing the retaining ring member 223D to be stably fixed to the housing assembly 221. Correspondingly, the inner component 223 can be stably fixed to the housing assembly 221.

[0275] like Figure 20As shown, the inner annular component 224A of this disclosure has a notch, and at least a portion of the partition plate 224D passes through the notch and is inserted into the groove-shaped structure 223C1 of the extension 223C. Based on this structure, when installing the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure, the partition plate 224D can be inserted into the notch of the inner annular component 224A first, and then the inner annular component 224A and the partition plate 224D can be installed together into the extension 223C. Thus, the air outlet structure 220 of this disclosure is simple and convenient to install, reducing manufacturing costs.

[0276] In a preferred embodiment, the notches are configured in multiple groups, with each group comprising two notches located at the two ends of the inner annular component 224A in the axial direction. Furthermore, the number of groups of notches may correspond to the number of partition plates 224D, and these groups of notches may be distributed circumferentially along the inner annular component 224A.

[0277] Correspondingly, a protrusion is formed at the position of the partition plate 224D corresponding to the notch. At this time, the protrusion can pass through the notch and be inserted into the groove structure 223C1 of the extension 223C.

[0278] In one implementation of this disclosure, the internal component 223 includes a second end 223B opposite to the first end 223A. The second end 223B is connected to the extension 223C via a snap-fit ​​structure, thereby allowing the first end 223A and the second end 223B of this disclosure to be easily disassembled.

[0279] See again Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 In the dryer disclosed herein, at least two vertically adjacent airflow guiding components 250 are connected by a central transmission rod 320. Therefore, during use, all airflow guiding components 250 can rotate synchronously. Furthermore, since the gas discharged from the airflow guiding components 250 is approximately in a vertical plane, the vertical plane containing the discharged gas will rotate (oscillate) as a whole. This prevents the user from perceiving that the gas at different heights is blown in different directions, thus improving the user experience.

[0280] The dryer may also include a drive assembly 310, which drives the guide component 250 to rotate, thereby changing the direction of the gas discharged from the guide component 250. Thus, the dryer of this disclosure, through the arrangement of the guide component 250 and the drive assembly 310, can achieve a change in the air outlet direction while keeping the air outlet structure 220 in a constant position. Therefore, the overall structure of the dryer of this disclosure is simple and easy to drive and control.

[0281] The flow guiding component 250 includes an upper connecting portion 257 and a lower connecting portion 258, which are used to connect different ends of different intermediate drive rods 320. In other words, the upper end of the same intermediate drive rod 320 can be connected to the lower connecting portion 258 of the flow guiding component 250 located above it; the lower end of the intermediate drive rod 320 can be connected to the upper connecting portion 257 of the flow guiding component 250 located below it, so that all flow guiding components 250 can be connected through the intermediate drive rod 320.

[0282] In another embodiment, the guide components 250 in the same air outlet module are connected by an intermediate transmission rod 320; the guide components 250 of different air outlet modules can be connected by an intermediate transmission member 314. For example, the guide components of the upper air outlet module and the guide components of the lower air outlet module are connected by an intermediate transmission member 314.

[0283] The upper connecting portion 257 and the lower connecting portion 258 are formed in a generally symmetrical structure and are arranged at an angle in the circumferential direction. The upper connecting portion 257 and the lower connecting portion 258 of the flow guide member 250 can be as follows: Figure 10 As shown, both are formed with a non-circular cross-section. The upper connecting portion 257 and the lower connecting portion 258 are angled in the circumferential direction, meaning that the center planes of the upper connecting portion 257 and the lower connecting portion 258 intersect and form a line of intersection, which is the vertical axis of the flow guide component 250. Preferably, the center planes of the upper connecting portion 257 and the lower connecting portion 258 are perpendicular to each other, thereby preventing the flow guide component 250 from being inverted in the vertical direction during installation.

[0284] In a preferred embodiment, the drive assembly 310 includes components such as a drive device 311, a first connecting rod 312, a second connecting rod 313, and an intermediate transmission component 314.

[0285] The drive unit 311 is used to generate driving force; in a specific embodiment, the drive unit 311 can be a motor. The first link 312 is disposed on the drive unit 311 to receive the driving force of the drive unit 311 and generate a swinging motion. In other words, one end of the first link 312 can be fixed to the output shaft of the drive unit 311, so that when the drive unit 311 reciprocates, the first link 312 can swing back and forth.

[0286] In one specific embodiment, the drive device 311 and the first linkage 312 can be implemented as a single servo motor.

[0287] The second link 313 is connected to the first link 312 in a transmission connection; the intermediate transmission member 314 is connected to one end of the second link 313, wherein the second link 313 is fixedly connected to the intermediate transmission member 314, so that when the first link 312 swings, the intermediate transmission member 314 reciprocates.

[0288] At this time, the intermediate transmission member 314 can be rotatably disposed on the seat component, and the seat component can be fixed on the support component 210 of the air outlet module 200, thereby the intermediate transmission member 314 can rotate freely relative to the support component 210.

[0289] The intermediate transmission member 314 can be connected to one of the flow guiding members 250, so that the rotation of the intermediate transmission member 314 can be smoothly converted into the rotation of all the flow guiding members 250. In a preferred embodiment, the intermediate transmission member 314 can have the same structure as the intermediate transmission rod 320. This disclosure is only distinguished by technical features for the sake of description.

[0290] More preferably, a groove is provided at the other end of the second link 313, and a sliding part is provided on the first link 312. The sliding part is slidably disposed in the groove. Thus, when the first link 312 rotates, the sliding part can apply a thrust to the side wall of the groove, thereby driving the second link 313 to rotate. In addition, during the rotation of the first link 312 and the second link 313, the hinge position will change. At this time, the sliding part can be slid in the groove to prevent the first link 312 and the second link 313 from jamming.

[0291] Figure 25 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a dryer according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 26 This is a structural schematic diagram of a dryer according to another embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.

[0292] like Figure 25 and Figure 26 As shown, in another embodiment, the structure of the air outlet module 200 may be different; in other words, the upper air outlet module and the lower air outlet module may have different structures.

[0293] In particular, the support component 210 of the air outlet module 200 is formed as the housing component 221 of the air outlet structure 220. In other words, the housing component 221 of the air outlet structure 220 can be integrally formed with the support component 210.

[0294] Figure 27 This is a structural schematic diagram of a dryer according to yet another embodiment of the present disclosure from another angle.

[0295] like Figure 27As shown, in the dryer of this embodiment, there are three air outlet modules 200, and each air outlet module 200 has two air outlet structures. Furthermore, adjacent air outlet modules 200 are connected by an intermediate housing, and the number of intermediate housings is set to two.

[0296] Alternatively, the drive assembly 310 may or may not be installed inside the intermediate housing. In other words, it is only necessary to ensure that one drive assembly 310 is installed in a dryer.
