In order to make the above objectives, features, and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent and understandable, specific implementation modes of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to drawings. In the following description, many specific details are described in order to fully understand the present disclosure. However, the present disclosure may be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present disclosure. Therefore, the present disclosure is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.


It should be noted that while an element is referred to as being “fixed to” another element, it may be directly on the other element or an intermediate element may also be existent. While an element is considered to be “connected” to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or an intermediate element may be existent at the same time. Terms “vertical”, “horizontal”, “left”, “right” and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only, and do not mean that they are the only implementation modes.


Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present disclosure. Terminologies used in the description of the present disclosure herein are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the various technical features in the above embodiments are not described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combinations of these technical features, it should be considered as a scope recorded in the description.

In use, through the synergy of the electrothermal film 12 and the fan 13, a human body in front of the heating device 10 has a better temperature sensing effect. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, based on the high radiation capacity of the electrothermal film 12, a large amount of heat is radiated in front of the heating device 10. The fan 13 is located at the bottom of the electrothermal film 12, and the air outlet of the fan 13 faces forward. While carpet-type heating is achieved, and an air flow blown out from the air outlet also pushes the large amount of heat radiated in front of the heating device 10 forward, as shown in FIG. 2, so the temperature at a near-ground position in front of the heating device 10 is higher, and the temperature sensing effect of the human body in front of the heating device 10 is overall improved.


As shown in FIG. 3, compared to a heating device of a non-electrothermal film type, even if the heating device of the non-electrothermal film type is equipped with a fan for carpet-type heating, there is no a large amount of heat that is pushed forward, because there is no electric heating film that radiates a lot of the heat to the front of the heating device. Therefore, the above effect of improving the human body temperature sensing does not be achieved. As shown in FIG. 3, in a range of a human body height from 1 m to 0.4 m, compared with the heating device of the non-electrothermal film type, even if the fan is installed, it may not achieve the temperature that the heating device 10 in some embodiments of the present disclosure achieves in the case without a large amount of the heat that is pushed forward. The heating device in a pure electric heating mode only supplies heat through radiation and natural convection, but based on the rise of natural convection heat, it may not achieve the human body temperature sensing effect that the heating device 10 described in the present disclosure achieves.
