The present disclosure relates to the technology field of blow dryers, and in particular to a blow dryer.
In the traditional wired blow dryers currently on the market, in daily use, a power cable of the wired blow dryer is easy to be wrapped around a user's arm or other objects, which is inconvenient to use. In addition, the traditional wired blow dryers include an air duct provided with an air outlet channel, and flow directions of internal airflow are substantially parallel to a central axis of the air outlet channel, thus decreasing the strength of the wind pressure.
The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a wireless blow, which increases the strength of the wind pressure.
In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a blow dryer. The blow dryer includes an air duct and a handle coupled to the air duct. The air duct arranges an air outlet channel and an air outlet in air communication with the air outlet channel. The air duct is provided with an air guiding element at a front end of the air outlet channel. The air guiding element is configured to guide airflow in the air outlet channel to an inside wall of the air outlet channel, so that the airflow is concentrated and discharged from the air duct through the air outlet.
Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a wireless hair dryer. The blow dryer includes an air duct and a handle coupled to the air duct. The air duct arranges an air outlet channel and an air outlet in air communication with the air outlet channel. The air duct is provided with an air guiding element at a front end of the air outlet channel. The air guiding element is configured to guide airflow in the air outlet channel to an inside wall of the air outlet channel, so that the airflow is concentrated and discharged from the air duct through the air outlet, thus changing flow directions of internal airflow by the air guiding element, and thereby increasing the strength of the wind pressure provided by the blow dryer.

The working mode includes a shutdown mode, a cool air mode, and a hot air mode. The wind speed includes a low speed, a medium speed, and a high speed. The shutdown mode means that the rechargeable batteries 51 in the blow dryer 100 stops supplying power to the main control board 90, the motor 64, the heating module 83, and the display module 105, so that the various components in the blow dryer 100 are in an inoperative state. The cool air mode means that the motor 64 of the blow dryer 100 works to drive the fan blade 66 to rotate to form an airflow, but the heating module 83 does not generate heat, that is, the airflow blown by the blow dryer 100 is natural wind. The hot air mode means that the motor 64 of the blow dryer 100 works to drive the fan blade 66 to rotate to form an airflow, at the same time, the main control board 90 controls the rechargeable batteries 51 to supply power to the heating module 83, and the heating module 83 also works to generate heat. When the air flows through the heating module 83, heat exchange occurs to form a hot airflow, that is, the airflow blown by the blow dryer 100 is hot air. The low speed, medium speed and high speed means that the main control board 90 controls the motor 64 to drive, with different powers, the fan blade 66 to rotate at different speed, so as to form airflows of three different wind speed levels: low speed, medium speed, and high speed. The wind volume at the high speed is the largest, followed by the wind volume at the medium speed, and wind volume at the low speed is the smallest.
When the blow dryer 100 is in a charging state, no matter what working mode the blow dryer 100 is currently in, the main control board 90 controls the rechargeable batteries 51 to stop supplying power to the heating module 83 and the motor 64, that is, the heating module 83 is powered off and the motor 64 stops rotating.
During the charging process of the blow dryer 100, the handle 30 of the blow dryer 100 can be taken out from the charging socket 400 at any time. When the blow dryer 100 is taken out from the charging socket 400, the blow dryer 100 exits the charging state and resumes the working mode before charging.
During use, the blow dryer 100 protects the rechargeable batteries 51 from over-discharge, that is, during the operation of the motor 64, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage of any rechargeable batteries 51 is lower than a first preset voltage threshold value, the main control board 90 controls the heating module assembly 80 to stop generating heat and the motor 64 to stop rotating. Specifically, the first preset voltage threshold value set in the main control board 90 is 2.7V, when the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 in the energy storage assembly 50 is lower than 2.7V, the main control board 90 controls the rechargeable batteries 51 to stop supplying power to the heating module 83 and the motor 64, so that the heating module 83 stops generating heat and the motor 64 stops rotating, and the display module 105 indicates the over-discharge state.
The over-charging protection when the blow dryer 100 is charging, that is, when the charging socket 400 is charging the rechargeable batteries 51, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 is higher than a second preset voltage threshold value, the main control board 90 controls the rechargeable batteries 51 to stop charging. Specifically, if the second preset voltage threshold value set in the main control board 90 is 4.2V, when the charging socket 400 is charging the rechargeable batteries 51, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 in the energy storage assembly 50 is higher than 4.2V, the main control board 90 controls the rechargeable batteries 51 to stop charging.
The differential pressure protection of the rechargeable batteries 51, that is, when the rechargeable batteries 51 are in a fully charged state, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 is lower than a third preset voltage threshold value, the main control board 90 prohibits the charging and/or discharging of the rechargeable batteries 51. Specifically, the third preset voltage threshold value set in the main control board 90 is 3.73V, when the rechargeable batteries 51 are in a fully charged state, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 is lower than 3.73V, the main control board 90 determines that the voltage difference among the single rechargeable batteries 51 is too great, the main control board 90 prohibits the charging and discharging of the rechargeable batteries 51 to lock the fault. Even if the main control board 90 is powered on again, it will still enter this protection mode.
The over-use protection of the rechargeable batteries 51, that is, when the main control board 90 detects that the rechargeable batteries 51 have been charged more than a preset number of times threshold, the main control board 90 prohibits the charging and/or discharging of the rechargeable batteries 51. Specifically, the preset number of times threshold set by the main control board 90 is 1000 times. When the charging socket 400 is charging the rechargeable batteries 51, if the main control board 90 detects that the rechargeable batteries 51 have been charged more than 1000 times, the main control board 90 determines that the rechargeable batteries 51 have been overused, and prohibits the charging and discharging of the rechargeable batteries 51 to lock the fault. Even if the main control board 90 is powered on again, it will still enter this protection mode.
When the blow dryer 100 is in the hot air mode, if the main control board 90 detects that the voltage of any rechargeable batteries 51 is lower than a fourth preset voltage threshold value, the main control board 90 controls the heating module assembly 80 to stop generating heat, and the motor 64 continues to work. The hot air mode means that when the motor 64 is working, the heating module 83 also works and generates heat. Specifically, the fourth preset voltage threshold value set in the main control board 90 is 3.1V. When the blow dryer 100 is in the hot air mode, when the main control board 90 detects that the voltage value of any rechargeable batteries 51 is lower than 3.1V, the main control board 90 controls the heating module 83 to stop generating heat, and the motor 64 continues to work.
The above is the embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the embodiments of the present disclosure. These improvements and modifications are also considered as the protection scope of the present disclosure.
