For example, different combinations of specific technical features can form different embodiments and technical solutions. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in this utility model will not be described separately.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the present invention provides a heat-conducting component 1, which is mainly used in a hair curling iron. The heat-conducting component 1 includes a body 12 and a mounting bracket 13, and is capable of conducting heat from the heating element 11 (see reference). Figure 3 The heat emitted by the heat conductor 1 heats and shapes the hair. In this embodiment of the invention, the heat conductor 1 is described using a curling iron as an example. However, it is understood that the heat conductor 1 and related design concepts can also be applied to other application scenarios that require heating. The application scope of the heat conductor 1 is not specifically limited here.
[0034] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, the body 12 is in the shape of a "body of revolution," such as a cylinder, elliptical cylinder, or frustum. A cavity 121 is formed inside the body 12, and a receiving groove 122 for accommodating hair is formed in the outer wall of the body 12. The receiving groove 122 extends axially along the body 12 to both ends of the body 12. A mounting bracket 13 is connected to the inner wall of the body 12. The mounting bracket 13 has at least one mounting cavity 131 for inserting the heating element 11, or a mounting cavity 131 for inserting the heating element 11 is formed between the mounting bracket 13 and the inner wall of the body 12. Thus, when installing the heating element 11, it needs to be directly inserted into the mounting cavity 131 to achieve the connection between the heating element 11 and the heat-conducting element 1. Specifically, for example, the heating element 11 is inserted into the mounting cavity 131 with an interference fit, or a snap-fit structure is used to connect the heating element 11 to the mounting bracket 13. The heating element 11 has good stability after installation and does not require operations such as gluing or screw fixing, which greatly improves the ease of installation of the heating element 11.
[0035] It should be noted that the shape of the main body 12 is determined based on its overall visual effect. For example, as... Figure 1 The body 12 shown is cylindrical in shape as a whole. Although the outer wall of the body 12 is recessed to form a receiving groove 122, making the body 12 different from a complete cylinder in some local positions, it can still be considered that the shape of the body 12 is cylindrical, and the axis of the body 12 can still be clearly determined by those skilled in the art.
[0036] Optionally, the body 12 is typically made of a metal material with good thermal conductivity, such as aluminum alloy. When the body 12 is made of aluminum alloy, it also has advantages such as light weight, ease of processing, and corrosion resistance. The shape of the body 12 can be designed according to factors such as the comfort and aesthetics of the curling iron. This embodiment of the utility model does not impose further limitations on the shape of the body 12. The shape and size of the cavity 121 are determined by the physical structure of the body 12. Under the premise of meeting the installation requirements of necessary components such as the heating element 11 and the mounting bracket 13, the cavity 121 can usually be made as large as possible to reduce the overall weight of the body 12, thereby reducing user fatigue during long-term use of the curling iron and improving portability.
[0037] Specifically, the receiving groove 122 formed on the body 12 typically serves to guide hair into the curling iron and adjust the hair's position. The specific shape of the receiving groove 122 can be flexibly designed according to user preferences and other factors. For example, in some embodiments, the cross-section of the receiving groove 122 along the axis perpendicular to the body 12 is U-shaped. This shape of receiving groove 122 is easy to process, has no sharp edges, and is aesthetically pleasing. Of course, the receiving groove 122 can also be set to other shapes, and this embodiment of the present invention does not impose further limitations on this.
[0038] Optionally, the mounting bracket 13 can be integrally formed with the body 12, or it can be a separate component, assembled and connected to the body 12 by welding, threaded connection, or other methods. The mounting bracket 13 is typically made of a metal with good thermal conductivity, and can be made of the same material as the body 12. In one embodiment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the mounting bracket 13 extends along the axial direction of the body 12 from one end of the body 12 to the opposite end. That is, the mounting bracket 13 is a continuous structure, which not only reliably supports the heating element 11 but also guides its installation. In another embodiment, the mounting bracket 13 can also be positioned only at opposite ends of the body 12, with both ends of the heating element 11 connected to the two mounting brackets 13 respectively. The key is to ensure that the heating element 11 can be installed within the mounting cavity 131 and reliably maintain contact with the body 12.
[0039] Optionally, the mounting bracket 13 can be a closed-loop shape, similar to a sleeve, in which case the mounting cavity 131 can be directly formed inside the mounting bracket 13; or, the mounting bracket 13 can also be a semi-enclosed shape, in which case the mounting bracket 13 and the inner wall of the body 12 together form the mounting cavity 131. The mounting cavity 131, perpendicular to the length of the body 12, can have a continuous closed-loop structure in its cross-section, meaning the mounting cavity 131 is not connected to the cavity 121; or it can have a discontinuous structure in its cross-section, meaning the mounting cavity 131 is connected to the cavity 121. In this structure, the mounting bracket 13 may have a slit extending along its length, the width of which should not affect the reliable fixation of the heating element 11, while also accommodating the insertion of other components that need to be inserted.
[0040] It is understandable that when the mounting cavity 131 is directly formed from the inside of the mounting bracket 13, the heating element 11 is actually in direct contact with the mounting bracket 13 to conduct heat. At this time, the heating element 11 and the body 12 are in indirect contact through the mounting bracket 13.
[0041] It should be noted that since the mounting bracket 13 is connected to the inner wall of the body 12, the mounting cavity 131 can actually be regarded as a part divided from the space of the cavity 121. The part of the cavity 121 that is not divided into the mounting cavity 131 can reduce the weight of the body 12 and can also be used to install other components as needed.
[0042] The heat-conducting component 1 provided by this utility model includes a body 12 and a mounting bracket 13. The mounting bracket 13 is disposed on the inner wall of the body 12, and a mounting cavity 131 is formed on the mounting bracket 13, or a mounting cavity 131 is formed between the mounting bracket 13 and the inner wall of the body 12. With the above design, when installing the heating element 11, the heating element 11 only needs to be inserted into the mounting cavity 131. The mounting bracket 13 itself can limit the installation position of the heating element 11, thereby achieving reliable installation of the heating element 11. There is no need to use more complicated methods such as adhesive bonding or screw connection for installation and fixation, thus effectively simplifying the installation operation and improving the convenience and efficiency of assembly.
[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple mounting brackets 13 are arranged around the rotation axis of the main body 12. With the above design, each mounting bracket 13 can form a mounting cavity 131, and a heating element 11 can be installed in each mounting cavity 131. In this way, multiple heating elements 11 can be arranged inside the main body 12 to generate heat simultaneously, so that the main body 12 can be heated up quickly for use, reducing the heating waiting time. Furthermore, the uniformity of heat distribution of the main body 12 can be improved by heating the main body 12 through heating elements 11 at different positions, thereby improving the user experience.
[0044] In some embodiments, the mounting brackets 13 may be uniformly distributed, specifically meaning that the mounting brackets 13 are uniformly distributed around the rotation axis of the body 12. For example, as... Figure 1 As shown, when two mounting brackets 13 are provided around the rotation axis of the body 12, the mounting brackets 13 are symmetrically arranged relative to the rotation axis of the body 12, and correspondingly form two mounting cavities 131. This design can further improve the uniformity of heat transfer from the heating element 11 to the body 12, and the uniformly distributed structure is easier to position during processing or assembly.
[0045] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 13 includes a first bent arm 132 and a second bent arm 133 spaced apart and respectively connected to the inner wall of the body 12, with the first bent arm 132 and the second bent arm 133 bent relative to each other. Specifically, the first bent arm 132 bends toward the second bent arm 133, and the second bent arm 133 bends toward the first bent arm 132, so that the first bent arm 132 and the second bent arm 133 can form an interlocking structure, thereby enclosing and forming a mounting cavity 131. The first bent arm 132 and the second bent arm 133 are spaced apart, and the gap between them can reduce the weight to a certain extent while meeting the space requirements of the mounting cavity 131. In some designs, the gap between the first bent arm 132 and the second bent arm 133 can also serve as a guide groove for guiding the installation of the heating element 11 or other components. Optionally, the first bending arm 132 and the second bending arm 133 can be mirror-symmetrical components, which simplifies the structural design; of course, the first bending arm 132 and the second bending arm 133 can also be components with different shapes, as long as they are bent relative to each other and can form the mounting cavity 131. To simplify the assembly operation, the first bending arm 132 and the second bending arm 133 can also be integrally formed with the body 12.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the heat-conducting component 1 also includes a connecting post 14, which is connected to the body 12 and used for connecting components connected to the heat-conducting component 1. Optionally, the connecting post 14 can be a threaded post or a cylindrical structure with a snap-fit or snap-fit hole. The connecting post 14 can be integrally formed with the body 12, or it can be separately set and connected to the body 12 by welding, riveting, or other methods, and the number of connecting posts 14 can be one or more. As an example, the connecting post 14 can be an internally threaded post integrally formed with the body 12, and the heat-conducting component 1 can be connected to other components of the curling iron by screws engaging with the internal threads on the internally threaded post, thereby achieving a reliable connection of the heat-conducting component 1.
[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, a heat-conducting layer 16 is provided on at least a portion of the inner wall and / or at least a portion of the outer wall of the body 12. Optionally, the heat-conducting layer 16 can be made of graphene material through an electroplating process, or it can be formed by coating with silicone grease. Depending on different thermal conductivity requirements, the heat-conducting layer 16 can cover only a portion of the inner wall or the outer wall of the body 12, or it can completely cover all the inner and outer walls of the body 12. By providing the heat-conducting layer 16, the thermal conductivity of the body 12 can be further improved, and the heat distribution can be made more uniform, which can better avoid the problem of local overheating, thereby improving the safety and consistency of hair curling effect.
[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the illustration, this embodiment of the present invention also provides a heating component 10 mainly used in hair curlers. The heating component 10 includes a heating element 11, a body 12, a mounting bracket 13, and a contact element 15, enabling the hair curler to heat and shape the hair. In this embodiment of the present invention, the heating component 10 is described using a hair curler as an example. However, it is understood that, similar to the heat-conducting element 1 described above, the heating component 10 and related design concepts can also be applied to other application scenarios requiring heating, and the application scope of the heating component 10 is not limited.
[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the heating assembly 10 includes a heating element 11, a body 12, a mounting bracket 13, and a contact member 15. The body 12 has an internal cavity 121. The mounting bracket 13 is connected to the inner wall of the body 12, and a mounting cavity 131 is formed on the mounting bracket 13, or a mounting cavity 131 is formed between the mounting bracket 13 and the inner wall of the body 12. At least the heating element 11 is disposed within the mounting cavity 131, thereby enabling the mounting of the heating element 11 through the mounting bracket 13. The contact member 15 is at least partially disposed within the cavity 121 and abuts against the heating element 11, so that the heating element 11 is tightly attached to the body 12. It is understood that for specific implementations of the body 12 and mounting bracket 13 in the heating assembly 10, reference can be made to the specific implementations of the body 12 and mounting bracket 13 included in the above-described heat-conducting component, which will not be elaborated upon here.
[0050] The heating element 11 is used to generate heat. The specific heating method and principle can be designed with reference to existing technology. Currently, it usually adopts electrically conductive heating elements such as thermistors. The heating element 11 is disposed in the cavity 121 opened inside the body 12, and transfers heat to the body 12 through contact with the body 12, thereby raising the temperature of the body 12. In this way, when the body 12 comes into contact with the hair, it can heat the hair and achieve hair shaping.
[0051] In one embodiment, the abutment 15 abuts against the heating element 11, thereby pressing the heating element 11 tightly against the body 12. For example, when it is necessary to press one side of the heating element 11 tightly against the inner wall of the body 12, the abutment 15 can be disposed on the opposite side of the heating element 11, and the heating element 11 is pressed against that side, thereby achieving the fit between the heating element 11 and the inner wall of the body 12. Optionally, regarding the positional relationship between the abutment 15 and the cavity 121, the abutment 15 can be completely disposed within the cavity 121, or only the portion used to abut the heating element 11 can be located within the cavity 121. Furthermore, regarding the form of connection between the abutment 15 and the body 12, the abutment 15 can be directly connected to the body 12, or it can be indirectly connected to the body 12 through other components. Meanwhile, to ensure a reliable connection between the abutment member 15 and the body 12, various connection methods can be used, such as snap-fit connection or threaded connection, to connect it to the body 12. Alternatively, the two ends of the abutment member 15 can be abutted against the inner walls of the heating element 11 and the body 12, respectively. The above design schemes can be flexibly selected, as long as the abutment member 15 remains relatively fixed to the body 12 after installation and maintains its abutting effect on the heating element 11.
[0052] This utility model provides a heating assembly 10, including a heating element 11, a body 12, and a contact member 15. The heating element 11 is disposed within a cavity 121 formed inside the body 12, and the contact member 15 is at least partially disposed within the cavity 121. This utility model embodiment improves the installation stability of the heating element 11 by placing the heating element 11 within a mounting cavity 131 and defining the installation position of the heating element 11 by a mounting bracket 13. Simultaneously, by using the contact member 15 and abutting against the heating element 11, the contact member 15 generates a compressive force that tightly presses the heating element 11 against the body 12, ensuring sufficient contact between the heating element 11 and the body 12 for heat conduction. This effectively solves the problem of poor contact and improves the heat conduction effect. Furthermore, the contact member 15 and the body 12 together compress the heating element 11, achieving reliable fixation of the heating element 11 without the need for adhesive bonding or other methods, thus simplifying the installation operation. In addition, since the abutment 15 and the body 12 are reliably fixed, the abutment 15 can exert a long-term stable squeezing force on the heating element 11, and it is not easy to loosen even after long-term use, thus improving the reliability of heat conduction between the heating element 11 and the body 12.
[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3As shown, the abutment 15 is connected between the mounting bracket 13 and the heating element 11 to drive the side of the heating element 11 facing the body 12 to be tightly pressed against the body 12. It can be understood that with this design, the abutment 15 is located inside the mounting cavity 131, which can further reduce the space of the mounting cavity 131, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of the heating element 11 becoming loose, and further improving the heat transfer effect between the heating element 11 and the body 12.
[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the end of the abutment 15 facing the installation direction has a guide portion 151 for guiding the installation of the abutment 15. The guide portion 151 is bent towards the direction of the heating element 11. Specifically, taking direction A in the figure as an example, when the abutment 15 is inserted between the heating element 11 and the mounting bracket 13 along direction A, the abutment 15 is difficult to position accurately due to the certain depth of the mounting cavity 131. Therefore, a guide portion 151 is provided at the end facing direction A to guide the correct installation of the abutment 15. Specifically, the guide portion 151 is bent towards the direction of the heating element 11, and can usually be set to a smooth transition with the main body of the abutment 15. This guides the abutment 15 towards the heating element 11 and finally installs it between the heating element 11 and the mounting bracket 13 in the correct installation position.
[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the abutment 15 is a spring sheet, and has an abutment portion 152 that abuts against the heating element 11 and bent portions 153 connected to opposite sides of the abutment portion 152. Both bent portions 153 are bent away from the heating element 11 and abut against the mounting bracket 13 respectively. Specifically, the abutment 15 is configured as an elastic spring sheet. Depending on the force applied to the abutment 15, the bending angle of the bent portions 153 relative to the abutment portion 152 can change. In this way, the abutment 15 can be installed in the mounting cavity 131 with an interference fit, so that the abutment 15 is in a compressed state. Since the abutment 15 has a tendency to rebound, it can continuously apply an elastic force to the heating element 11, thereby pressing the heating element 11 tightly, ensuring continuous contact heat transfer of the heating element 11, and having a reliable fixing effect. In addition, in some embodiments, the mounting bracket 13 includes a first bending arm 132 and a second bending arm 133, so that the two bending parts 153 can abut against the first bending arm 132 and the second bending arm 133 respectively. With this design, the opposite sides of the abutment 15 bear the compressive force, and the force balance is good.
[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the abutment 15 has a force-bearing portion 154 for bearing force during installation or disassembly. Specifically, the force-bearing portion 154 is a structure that facilitates the operator's application of force to move the abutment 15 during installation or disassembly. The operator can apply force to the force-bearing portion 154 by hand or with the aid of tools. Depending on the design, the location of the force-bearing portion 154 is not unique. The form of the force-bearing portion 154 can be various, such as a protrusion, a baffle, a step, or a hook, as long as it is convenient for the user to access and apply force. This design makes the installation and disassembly of the abutment 15 more convenient, and during the installation and disassembly process, only the force-bearing portion 154 needs to be contacted without contacting the main body of the abutment 15. This also helps to reduce problems such as deformation or wear of the main body of the abutment 15 during installation and disassembly.
[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the force-receiving part 154 is located at the end of the abutment 15 away from the installation direction. Specifically, the force-receiving part 154 is located at the end of the abutment 15 away from direction A shown in the figure. When installing or removing the abutment 15, this end is closer to the operator. Therefore, the operator can more easily reach the force-receiving part 154, making it easier to apply force to the force-receiving part 154 and complete the installation or removal operation of the abutment 15.
[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the shape of the contact surface on the heating element 11 that conforms to the inner wall of the body 12 is adapted to the shape of a portion of the inner wall of the corresponding contact surface on the body 12. For example, when the contact surface on the heating element 11 that conforms to the inner wall of the body 12 is set as a plane, the portion of the inner wall of the corresponding contact surface on the body 12 is also set as a plane. As another example, when the contact surface on the heating element 11 that conforms to the inner wall of the body 12 is set as a convex arc surface, the portion of the inner wall of the corresponding contact surface on the body 12 is set as a concave arc surface. Through the above design, the fit between the heating element 11 and the body 12 is more complete, the contact area is larger, and this is beneficial for improving heat conduction efficiency.
[0059] This utility model embodiment also provides a hair curler, including a main body and the aforementioned heating component 10. The main body is at least connected to the body 12.
