[0049] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein in the specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.
[0050] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0051] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0052] See appendix Figures 1 to 20 This utility model proposes a towel heating bucket, including an outer bucket 1, an inner bucket 2, and a heating mechanism 3.
[0053] The outer tub 1 has a first receiving cavity 100. The inner tub 2 is detachably connected to the outer tub 1, so that the inner tub 2 can be placed in or detached from the first receiving cavity 100. The inner tub 2 has a second receiving cavity 200 for holding a towel to be heated. A heating mechanism 3 is installed at least in the inner tub 2 for heating the second receiving cavity 200, i.e., heating the towel.
[0054] Therefore, this towel heating container primarily utilizes the inner tub 2 for towel heating, with the outer tub 1 covering the outside of the inner tub 2. This eliminates the need for the inner tub 2 to be exposed, requiring only that it meet insulation requirements. The aesthetic requirements for the inner tub 2 are significantly reduced, making its design and manufacturing simpler. Furthermore, the functions of the outer tub 1 and the inner tub 2 are independent. The inner tub 2 alone is sufficient for insulation, allowing for a simpler implementation while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing design. Similarly, due to the independence between the outer tub 1 and the inner tub 2, after the inner tub 2 is removed, the larger outer tub 1 can be used alone to store towels.
[0055] Specifically as follows:
[0056] In some embodiments, the outer barrel 1 is at least partially rigidly configured, providing at least a support function. See Appendix Figure 2 , 78. The outer tub 1 includes a fixed frame 11 and a flexible cover 12. The fixed frame 11 is rigid and can be made of materials such as plastic, metal, wood, or bamboo. The flexible cover 12 is at least partially flexible and has a folded state and an unfolded state. The fixed frame 11 serves as the skeleton of the outer tub 1, and the flexible cover 12 is connected to the outside of the fixed frame 11, allowing the flexible cover 12 to be expanded by the fixed frame 11 to maintain its unfolded state, forming a first receiving cavity 100 within the flexible cover 12. The inner tub 2 is detachably connected to either the fixed frame 11 or the flexible cover 12. After the inner tub 2 is installed with the outer tub 1, the inner tub 2 is located within the first receiving cavity 100. At this time, the appearance of the inner tub 2 is obscured by the outer tub 1, and the user can only observe the shape of the outer tub 1. Because the flexible cover 12 is freed from the constraints of the heating mechanism 3, the requirements for heat preservation performance are reduced, allowing for a simpler external design. Structurally, the outer tub 1, apart from the necessary rigid fixing frame 11, can be made of lower-cost flexible materials, such as a single layer of fabric. Flexible materials also facilitate easier folding. Therefore, the detachable structural design of the inner tub 2 and outer tub 1 achieves both simplicity and cost control while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of the towel heating tub.
[0057] To save storage space and reduce transportation costs, in some embodiments, see Appendix Figure 8 and 12 The flexible cover 12 and the fixed frame 11 are detachably connected, and the fixed frame 11 can also be designed as a detachable structure. Since the inner tub 2 does not need to provide support, it can be at least partially flexible, allowing it to be folded or compressed. After the inner tub 2 is removed from the outer tub 1, the user can also remove the flexible cover 12 from the fixed frame 11, folding the flexible cover 12 and disassembling the fixed frame 11, thereby saving space.
[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 2 and 7 As shown, the flexible cover 12 has a connection port 120, which connects the first receiving cavity 100 to the outside. The heating mechanism 3 includes a heating wire 31 and an electrical connection part 30 connected to the heating wire 31. The heating wire 31 is arranged inside the inner barrel 2, and the electrical connection part 30 is formed on the outer surface of the inner barrel 2. The position of the electrical connection part 30 corresponds to the connection port 120. The electrical connection part 30 is used to connect to a power cord. The power cord can pass through the connection port 120 and be connected to an external power source, so that the heating wire 31 can be energized and heated. When the inner barrel 2 needs to be removed from the outer barrel 1, the power cord and the electrical connection part 30 are first separated, and then the inner barrel 2 can be removed from the first receiving cavity 100.
[0059] In some embodiments, see Appendix Figure 20The inner barrel 2 includes an insulation layer 21 and an outer flexible layer 22 that wraps around the insulation layer 21. A heating wire 31 is disposed between the insulation layer 21 and the outer flexible layer 22. The insulation layer 21 is made of materials such as insulating cotton, and the outer flexible layer is made of materials such as fabric or leather. To maintain the spatial capacity of the second receiving cavity 200, an additional rigid layer may also be provided between the insulation layer 21 and the outer flexible layer 22.
[0060] Regarding the detachable connection structure between the inner tub 2 and the outer tub 1, in some embodiments, referring to Appendices 2, 4 and 5, the towel heating tub further includes at least one hanging structure 4, through which the inner tub 2 is detachably connected to the outer tub 1.
[0061] Specifically, the hanging structure 4 includes a fastener 41 and a hook 42. The fastener 41 is installed on one of the inner tub 2 or the outer tub 1, and the hook 42 is installed on the other of the inner tub 2 or the outer tub 1. The fastener 41 can be hooked onto the hook 42.
[0062] Furthermore, multiple hanging structures 4 are provided, and these multiple hanging structures 4 are symmetrically distributed inside the towel heating barrel, for example, attached... Figure 2 As shown, four fasteners 41 are distributed near the four corners of the outer tub 1, and four hangers 42 are distributed near the four corners of the inner tub 2.
[0063] For example, attached Figure 2 and 5 In some embodiments shown, the fastener 41 is a horn buckle, which is connected to the flexible cover 12 via a flexible strip; the hook 42 is a flexible hook, which is connected to the outer flexible layer of the inner tub 2. After the horn buckle and the flexible strip pass through the flexible hook, the flexible hook and the horn buckle hook together using the weight of the inner tub 2 itself.
[0064] For example, in some other embodiments, the fastener 41 is a rigid hook, which is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 11; the hook 42 is a rigid hanging ear, which is fixed to the outer flexible layer of the inner tub 2. The rigid hanging ear can be hooked onto the rigid hook by the weight of the inner tub 2 itself.
[0065] Regarding the detachable structural design of the fixed frame 11, in some embodiments, see the appendix. Figures 6 to 11The fixed frame 11 includes a fixing mechanism 111 and multiple support rods 112. A flexible cover 12 is connected to the fixing mechanism 111. The flexible cover 12 is at least partially flexible and has a folded state and an unfolded state. When the flexible cover 12 is in the unfolded state, a first receiving cavity 100 is formed inside the flexible cover 12. The multiple support rods 112 are detachably connected to the fixing mechanism 111 or the flexible cover 12. At least a portion of the support rods 112 can be placed within the first receiving cavity 100 to keep the flexible cover 12 in the unfolded state. This towel heating bucket is constructed by the fixing mechanism 111 and the support rods 112 forming the fixed frame 11. The flexible cover 12 then partially covers the fixed frame 11, thus forming a detachable, foldable, and easily manufactured outer bucket 1. The fixing mechanism 111 and the support rods 112 can be made of materials such as plastic, bamboo, wood, or metal.
[0066] For example, in some embodiments, see Appendix Figure 6 The upper end of the support rod 112 is inserted and fixed to the lower side of the fixing mechanism 111 (the insertion structure of the two is not shown). The flexible cover 12 includes a base plate 121 and a shielding member 122. The shielding member 122 connects the fixing mechanism 111 and the base plate 121. Correspondingly, the aforementioned connection port 120 is opened on the shielding member 122. The shielding member 122 surrounds the multiple support rods 112, that is, the shielding member 122 is supported by the multiple support rods 112. The lower end of the support rod 112 penetrates the base plate 121 and is used to directly support the ground.
[0067] For example, in some other embodiments, referring to Figures 8 to 10, the support rod 112 is fixed to the flexible cover 12, which includes a base plate 121 and a shielding member 122. The shielding member 122 is flexible and foldable (e.g., made of fabric), while the base plate 121 can be rigid or flexible. The shielding member 122 connects the fixing mechanism 111 and the base plate 121, and correspondingly, the aforementioned connection port 120 is formed on the shielding member 122. The support rod 112 is detachably connected to the shielding member 122, and when multiple support rods 112 are connected to the shielding member 122, the flexible cover 12 is in an unfolded state. The upper end of the support rod 112 abuts against the fixing mechanism 111, and the lower end of the support rod 112 abuts against the base plate 121, and is supported on the ground by the base plate 121 or support feet provided on the bottom surface of the base plate 121. The length of the support rod 112 is approximately equal to the distance between the fixing mechanism 111 and the base plate 121, so that after the multiple support rods 112 are installed, the deformation space of the cover 122 is small, which can prevent large mutual displacement between the fixing mechanism 111 and the base plate 121.
[0068] Correspondingly, the aforementioned fastener 41 is sewn onto the cover 122, while the hook 42 is sewn onto the outer wall of the inner tub 2.
[0069] The detachable connection structure between the fixed frame 11 and the flexible cover 12 is specifically divided into the detachable connection between the cover 122 and the support rod 112, and the detachable connection between the fixing mechanism 111 and the cover 122.
[0070] In some embodiments where the support rod 112 is detachably connected to the shield 122, see Appendix Figures 7 to 9 The towel heating barrel also includes multiple rod sleeves 6, the number of which corresponds to the number of support rods 112. The rod sleeves 6 are connected to the cover member 122, forming a receiving cavity 600 between the rod sleeves 6 and the cover member 122, or the rod sleeves 6 themselves enclose the receiving cavity 600. The support rods 112 can be placed within the receiving cavity 600. For example, in some embodiments, the rod sleeves 6 are designed as sheet-like fabric; in other embodiments, the rod sleeves 6 are designed as tubular fabric. The rod sleeves 6 can be directly sewn onto the cover member 122, or they can be attached to the cover member 122 via Velcro.
[0071] In some embodiments, see Appendix Figure 11 The base plate 121 includes a supporting body 1211 and an outer wrapping component 1212 that wraps around the supporting body 1211. The supporting body 1211 can be made of materials such as plastic, wood, bamboo, or metal, and the outer wrapping component 1212 can be made of fabric or other flexible materials. The cover component 122 and the outer wrapping component 1212 are sewn together. Of course, in other embodiments, the supporting body 1211 can also be thermal insulation cotton.
[0072] To facilitate the folding and storage of the outer bucket 1, in some embodiments, see the appendix. Figure 9 The support rod 112 can be removed from the receiving cavity 600. Specifically, the upper end of the rod sleeve 6 forms an inlet / outlet 601 communicating with the receiving cavity 600, and the lower end of the rod sleeve 6 is sewn together with the outer wrapping 1212 and the shielding 122. (See attached image) Figure 8 As shown, the towel heating barrel also includes an anti-detachment component 7. One end of the anti-detachment component 7 is connected to the fixing mechanism 111 or the flexible cover 12, and the other end of the anti-detachment component 7 is movable and detachably connected to the rod sleeve 6 to open or cover the inlet / outlet 601. In some embodiments, the upper end of the anti-detachment component 7 is sewn to the cover 122, and the lower end of the anti-detachment component 7 is detachably connected to the rod sleeve 6 via a Velcro structure.
[0073] After each receiving cavity 600 houses the support rod 112, the shape of the cover 122 is maintained by the base plate 121, the fixing mechanism 111, and the multiple support rods 112. The base plate 121 and the fixing mechanism 111 maintain the shape of the upper and lower ends of the cover 122, respectively, while the multiple support rods 112 maintain the relative position between the base plate 121 and the fixing mechanism 111, thus maintaining the cylindrical shape of the cover 122. This allows the flexible cover 12 to be in an unfolded state, forming a first receiving cavity 100 within it. The upper end of the support rod 112 abuts against the fixing mechanism 111, and the lower end of the support rod 112 abuts against the base plate 121. Anti-detachment components 7 prevent the support rods 112 from detaching from the receiving cavities 600, ultimately maintaining the upright shape of the outer barrel 1. Figure 1 The outer and inner tubs 1 are rectangular in shape. The inner tub 2 is then placed into the first receiving cavity 100. When the towel heating tub needs to be folded for storage, first remove the inner tub 2, then separate the anti-detachment component 7 and the rod sleeve 6 to expose the inlet and outlet 601, remove each support rod 112 one by one, and finally fold the cover component 122 and the inner tub 2.
[0074] Regarding the detachable connection structure between the fixing mechanism 111 and the shielding member 122, in some embodiments, see the appendix. Figures 12 to 19 The fixing mechanism 111 includes a first clamp 1111 and a second clamp 1112, which are detachably connected, forming a clamping gap 1110 between them. The flexible cover 12 also includes a first connecting portion 123 connected to the cover member 122. The first connecting portion 123 can be placed in the clamping gap 1110 and is clamped and fixed by the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112. The first connecting portion 123 may extend from the top of the cover member 122 or be sewn onto the cover member 122.
[0075] Therefore, when it is necessary to separate the shield 122 and the fixing mechanism 111, the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are separated, and the first connecting part 123 is pulled out from the clamping gap 1110.
[0076] In some embodiments, see Appendix Figure 13 The first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are connected by a snap-fit structure, and the two clamp together to fix the first connecting part 123.
[0077] To improve the connection reliability between the first connecting part 123 and the fixing mechanism 111, in some embodiments, see the appendix. Figures 14 to 16The fixing mechanism 111 also includes a locking member 1113, which penetrates the first connecting portion 123 and is connected to the first clamp 1111 or the second clamp 1112. By locking the position of the first connecting portion 123 in the clamping gap 1110 using the locking member 1113, the first connecting portion 123 can be prevented from disengaging from the clamping gap 1110 when the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are not separated.
[0078] In some embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 15 As shown, the locking member 1113 can specifically be a columnar structure integrally formed on the first clamp 1111 or the second clamp 1112. The fixing mechanism 111 includes multiple locking members 1113, which are distributed along the edge of the first clamp 1111 or the second clamp 1112. There is only one first connecting part 123, which is arranged in a ring, and the multiple locking members 1113 all penetrate the first connecting part 123.
[0079] In other embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 14 As shown, the locking member 1113 includes a fixing pin 11131 and a locking cap 11132. The fixing pin 11131 is integrally formed on the first clamp 1111 and penetrates the first connecting part 123. A fixing hole 11110 is opened on the fixing pin 11131, and the locking cap 11132 can be inserted into the fixing hole 11110. The maximum diameter of the locking cap 11132 is larger than the diameter of the fixing pin 11131. The locking cap 11132 is used to prevent the first connecting part 123 from detaching from the fixing pin 11131.
[0080] In some other embodiments, see Appendix Figure 16 As shown, a fixing hole 11110 is formed on the first clamp 1111, and a locking member 1113 is disposed through the first connecting part 123. The locking member 1113 can be inserted into the fixing hole 11110 by means of clearance fit or interference fit. When the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are connected to each other, the locking member 1113 can be prevented from disengaging from the fixing hole 11110, that is, the anti-disengagement function of the first connecting part 123 is achieved. In addition, multiple fixing holes 11110 are formed on the first clamp 1111, and the multiple fixing holes 11110 are distributed along the edge of the first clamp 1111. The flexible cover 12 includes multiple first connecting parts 123 formed on the cover member 122, and the fixing mechanism 111 includes multiple locking members 1113, each locking member 1113 penetrating one of the first connecting parts 123 and inserted into one of the fixing holes 11110.
[0081] The detachable connection structure between the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112, in some embodiments, refers to the appendix. Figures 17 to 19The first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are connected by a snap-fit mechanism. Therefore, the fixing mechanism 111 also includes a first snap-fit structure 1114 and a second snap-fit structure 1115. The first snap-fit structure 1114 is formed on one of the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112, and the second snap-fit structure 1115 is formed on the other of the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112. The first snap-fit structure 1114 and the second snap-fit structure 1115 are snap-fitted together.
[0082] Specifically, the first snap-fit structure 1114 includes an extension 11141 and a first snap-fit portion 11142 formed on the extension 11141. The extension 11141 can undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation. The second snap-fit structure 1115 includes a snap-fit groove 11151 and a second snap-fit portion 11152 formed on one side of the snap-fit groove 11151. The extension 11141 can be inserted into or pass through the snap-fit groove 11151 so that the first snap-fit portion 11142 passes over the second snap-fit portion 11152 and then elastically snaps into the second snap-fit portion 11152. During the insertion or passage of the extension 11141 through the snap-fit groove 11151, the first snap-fit part 11142 abuts against the upper side of the second snap-fit part 11152, forcing the extension 11141 to bend and deform until the first snap-fit part 11142 passes over the second snap-fit part 11152. Then, the extension 11141 returns to its original shape, and the first snap-fit part 11142 is placed under the second snap-fit part 11152, thus realizing the snap-fit of the first snap-fit part 11142 and the second snap-fit part 11152.
[0083] In other embodiments, the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 can also be connected by bolts.
[0084] In some embodiments, see Appendix Figures 14 to 17 The second clamp 1112 has a bottom-through receiving groove 11120 opened along its edge. The first clamp 1111 is placed in the receiving groove 11120 so as to cover the locking member 1113, the first snap-fit structure 1114 and the second snap-fit structure 1115, and to prevent the surface of the fixing mechanism 111 from having too many pore structures, so as to maintain the aesthetic appearance of the fixing mechanism 111.
[0085] Furthermore, in some embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figures 1 to 3As shown, the towel heating tub also includes a top cover 5. The top of the outer tub 1 has a first opening 101 connecting the first receiving cavity 100 to the outside. The top cover 5 is movably mounted on the outer tub 1 and can open or close the first opening 101. The inner tub 2 has a second opening 201 connecting the first receiving cavity 100 and the second receiving cavity 200, with the second opening 201 corresponding to the position of the first opening 101. Therefore, when the top cover 5 opens the first opening 101, the second opening 201 is also exposed, allowing the user to place a towel into the second receiving cavity 200. The top cover 5 also provides protection, preventing the user from being burned by touching the heating mechanism 3.
[0086] Specifically, the first opening 101 is formed on the fixing mechanism 111, and the top cover 5 is movably connected to the fixing mechanism 111. Correspondingly, the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 are both arranged in a ring shape, and the ring-shaped second clamp 1112 surrounds and forms the first opening 101 that connects the first receiving cavity 100 and the outside. The top cover 5 is at least partially clamped and fixed in the clamping gap 1110.
[0087] Among them, as attached Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the top cover 5 includes a cover body 51 and a second connecting part 52 connected to the cover body 51. The cover body 51 can open or close the first opening 101. The second connecting part 52 is flexible and is connected to the shielding member 122 or to the fixing mechanism 111.
[0088] For example, in some embodiments, the second connecting portion 52 is at least partially located in the clamping gap 1110, that is, the first clamp 1111 and the second clamp 1112 jointly clamp and fix the first connecting portion 123 and the second connecting portion 52.
[0089] For example, in some other embodiments, the second connecting portion 51 is stitched to the masking member 122.
[0090] For example, in some other embodiments, the second connecting part 51 is snapped onto the fixing mechanism 111.
[0091] In some embodiments, the cover body 51 includes a cover plate 511, an edging member 512, and a lifting member 513. The cover plate 511 is preferably made of or includes a rigid material to prevent it from collapsing or deforming. The edging member 512 is disposed around the cover plate 511 and connected to the periphery of the cover plate 511. The second connecting portion 52 is at least partially clamped between the cover plate 511 and the edging member 512, and the lifting member 513 is at least partially clamped between the cover plate 511 and the edging member 512. A user can apply force to the cover plate 511 through the lifting member 513 to make the cover plate 511 swing about the movable part of the second connecting portion 52.
[0092] For example, in some embodiments, the edge banding 512 is made of metal, and the edge banding 512 uses its own rigid structure to clamp the second connecting part 52 and the lifting part 513.
[0093] For example, in some other embodiments, the edging piece 512 is made of fabric, the cover plate 511 is made of plastic, the cover plate 511 is wrapped with a layer of fabric, the edging piece 512 is sewn to the fabric on the outside of the cover plate 511, and the second connecting part 52 and the lifting piece 513 are also sewn and fixed.
[0094] In other embodiments of this utility model, the inner tub 2 and the outer tub 1 can be a fixed connection structure, that is, the aforementioned hanging structure is not provided between the inner tub 2 and the outer tub 1. The inner tub 2 can be fixedly connected to the fixing mechanism 111, so that the first opening 101 coincides with the second opening 201.
[0095] In other embodiments of this utility model, the heating mechanism 3 can also be distributed in the outer tub 1 to heat the first receiving cavity 100 as well. The flexible cover 12 includes a base plate 121 and a shielding member 122, so that the heating wires are distributed on the base plate 121 and in the inner tub 2 at the same time, which has almost no impact on the overall shape of the towel heating tub. The inner tub 2 and the outer tub 1 have heating functions at the same time and can be used to heat different types of towels, such as heating dry towels in the inner tub 2 and heating wet towels in the outer tub 1.
