Detailed Implementation
[0019] This utility model provides a steam box with a water receiving plate. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the following describes this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicate the directional or positional relationship based on the directional or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-10 This embodiment discloses a steam box with a water receiving plate, which can be installed in a steam room 90. The steam box includes a body 10, a lower shell 20, an inner shell 30, an upper shell 40, a top cover 50, an aromatherapy disc 60, and a water receiving plate 70. The outer side of the body 10 is provided with a radially extending connecting part 12. The connecting part 12 is threadedly connected to a connector 13. The wall of the steam room 90 has a pre-set interface for a steam pipe. The connector 13 is used to connect the connecting part 12 to the interface, thereby introducing the steam provided by the steam pipe into the steam box.
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the water receiving plate 70 includes a recessed water receiving portion 71 located below the lower shell 20, a support portion 72 connected to the wall-facing end of the water receiving portion 71, and a drain interface 73. The support portion 72 is located above the drain interface 73 and is used to support the connecting portion 12. A drain pipe opening is also pre-set on the wall of the steam chamber 90. The drain interface 73 can be connected to the drain pipe opening via a threaded connection, forming a reliable drainage channel. When the steam box is working, the condensate generated by the steam box drips from the lower shell 20 to the water receiving portion 71. The water receiving portion 71 collects and guides the condensate to the drain interface 73, and finally drains it away through the drain pipe. This embodiment, by setting the water receiving plate 70, effectively collects and guides the condensate away, preventing it from dripping directly onto the ground and splashing water, thereby preventing burns to the user's feet and improving safety during use.
[0023] Furthermore, the upper end of the support portion 72 is provided with a slot 721, and the connecting portion 12 is provided with a locking block 121 that cooperates with the slot 721. During installation, first align the locking block 121 of the connecting portion 12 and lock it into the slot 721 of the support portion 72, and then tighten the connector 13 to the steam pipe interface on the wall. This design effectively supports and limits the body 10 of the steam box in the vertical direction, significantly improving the structural stability of the entire steam box after installation on the wall and preventing loosening due to pipe stress or accidental contact.
[0024] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the main body 10 has an axially extending inner cavity 11, and the upper end of the lower shell 20 is inserted into the inner cavity 11 along the axial direction. The lower shell 20 is detachably connected to the main body 10 through a bayonet-type connection structure 81. When regular cleaning is required, the lower shell 20 can be rotated to unlock it from the main body 10 and removed downwards to clean the lower shell 20 and the inner cavity 11 of the main body 10. The bayonet-type connection structure 81 facilitates quick disassembly and assembly and is conducive to maintenance.
[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner shell 30 is inserted through the upper opening of the inner cavity 11. The inner shell 30 is equipped with a partition 31, which divides the inner cavity 11 into an upper steam zone 32 and a lower drainage zone 33. The partition 31 is provided with a drain hole 34 that connects the steam zone 32 and the drainage zone 33. The side wall of the inner shell 30 is provided with a steam inlet 35, which is used to connect the connecting part 12 and the steam zone 32. External steam enters the steam zone 32 through the connecting part 12 and the steam inlet 35. Some of the condensate formed by the steam during the diffusion process can be discharged into the drainage zone 33 through the drain hole 34 on the partition 31, and finally discharged through the drain hole 21 at the bottom of the lower shell 20, thereby avoiding water accumulation and water carried by steam.
[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the lower end of the upper shell 40 is inserted into the inner shell 30 along the axial direction. The upper shell 40 and the inner shell 30 are detachably connected. An upper steam chamber 41 is formed inside the upper shell 40. The bottom of the upper steam chamber 41 is provided with multiple steam passage holes 42. Steam enters the upper steam chamber 41 after passing upward from the steam zone 32 through the steam passage holes 42. An aromatherapy disc 60 can be placed in the upper steam chamber 41. The pins 61 at the bottom of the aromatherapy disc 60 are inserted into the steam passage holes 42 for fixation. After opening the top cover 50, the aromatherapy liquid in the aromatherapy bottle 91 is poured into the aromatherapy disc 60, and then the top cover 50 is closed. When the steam flows through the aromatherapy disc 60, it can carry the fragrance and diffuse into the steam room 90.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the top cover 50 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the upper shell 40. At least one area on the upper edge of the top cover 50 has multiple steam exhaust holes 51 for connecting the upper steam chamber 41 to the outside. Users can rotate the top cover 50 to change the orientation of the steam exhaust holes 51, thereby flexibly adjusting the steam injection direction to meet the comfort needs of different locations within the steam room 90. This directional steam outlet method not only avoids concentrated steam injection into a fixed area but also promotes more uniform steam diffusion within the space, effectively improving the user experience.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the end of the connector 13 away from the connecting part 12 is provided with an external thread 131. During installation, the external thread 131 is threaded to the pipe interface pre-embedded in the wall of the steam room 90 to achieve reliable sealed connection between the steam box and the steam pipe, ensuring stable steam input.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the partition 31 has a downwardly inclined guide surface 311, and the drain hole 34 is located at the lowest point of the guide surface 311. This structure allows water droplets formed after steam condenses in the steam zone 32 to smoothly collect along the guide surface 311 to the lowest point, and then be discharged into the drainage zone 33 through the drain hole 34, effectively preventing condensate from accumulating in the steam zone 32.
[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the lower shell 20 is provided with multiple drain holes 21. The condensate that collects in the drainage area 33 can be discharged in an orderly manner through the multiple drain holes 21, avoiding water accumulation inside the lower shell 20 and keeping the inside of the steam box dry and clean.
[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the bayonet-type connection structure 81 includes a latching part 811 on the lower shell 20 and a limiting part 812 on the body 10 that cooperates with the latching part 811. The limiting part 812 includes an annular track 8122 with an inlet notch 8121. When assembling the lower shell 20, the latching part 811 of the lower shell 20 is aligned with the inlet notch 8121, allowing the latching part 811 to enter the annular track 8122 through the inlet notch 8121. By rotating the lower shell 20, the latching part 811 slides along the annular track 8122 to the locking position, thereby locking the lower shell 20 and the body 10. This connection method allows for quick assembly and disassembly without tools, greatly facilitating the regular cleaning and maintenance of the lower shell 20 and the inner cavity 11 of the body 10.
[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, a first limiting structure 82 is provided between the main body 10 and the inner shell 30. The first limiting structure 82 includes a limiting protrusion 821 extending axially from the inner wall of the main body 10 and a limiting groove 822 extending axially from the outer wall of the inner shell 30. The limiting protrusion 821 and the limiting groove 822 are slidably engaged. During assembly, the engagement of the limiting protrusion 821 and the limiting groove 822 guides the inner shell 30 to be accurately inserted into the inner cavity 11 of the main body 10 axially and prevents circumferential rotation, ensuring that the steam inlet 35 on the inner shell 30 can be accurately aligned with the connecting part 12.
[0033] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a second limiting structure 83 is provided between the upper shell 40 and the inner shell 30. The second limiting structure 83 includes two arc-shaped grooves 831 on the inner wall of the upper end of the inner shell 30 and two arc-shaped protrusions 832 on the outer wall of the lower end of the upper shell 40. The depth of the arc-shaped grooves 831 gradually decreases in the clockwise direction, and the thickness of the arc-shaped protrusions 832 gradually increases in the clockwise direction, so that they form a locking contact during rotation. When the upper shell 40 is installed into the inner shell 30, whether the upper shell 40 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise, the thick end of the arc-shaped protrusion 832 will form a tight contact with the shallow end of the arc-shaped groove 831 or the inner wall of the inner shell 30, realizing bidirectional rotational locking, and the assembly is intuitive and convenient.
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the aroma diffuser 60 is disposed inside the upper steam chamber 41. The bottom of the aroma diffuser 60 is provided with a pin 61, which is inserted into one of the steam passage holes 42 at the bottom of the upper steam chamber 41. The user can drip aromatherapy liquid onto the aroma diffuser 60. When the steam flows through the upper steam chamber 41, it will carry the aroma of the aromatherapy liquid and disperse it from the steam exhaust hole 51, thereby creating a fragrant environment in the steam room and enhancing the bathing experience.
[0035] like Figure 3As shown, the outer periphery of the lower shell 20 and the upper shell 40 is provided with anti-slip texture, making it easier for users to grip the upper shell 40 and the lower shell 20 and avoid slipping.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the top of the top cover 50 is provided with a handle 52, which makes it easier and more convenient for the user to rotate the top cover 50 when adjusting the steam injection direction.
[0037] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. However, this invention is not limited to the embodiments described. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this invention.
