The present disclosure relates to the technical field of hair dryers, and in particular, to a high-efficiency heating module applied to a hair dryer.
A hair dryer is a personal care type small household appliance that can quickly dry hairs. A guide fluid channel with an air outlet is arranged, and a heating module is integrated in the guide fluid channel, so that air passing through the heating module is blown out from the air outlet after being heated and acts on the hairs of a user. Due to strong permeability and radiation, far infrared has a significant temperature control effect and a resonance effect and is easily absorbed by an object and converted into internal energy of the object. After being absorbed by a human body, the far infrared can cause resonance in water molecules in the body to activate the water molecules and increase the binding force between the molecules, thereby activating biomacromolecules such as proteins, and making biological cells at the highest vibrational energy level. Due to the resonance effect generated by the biological cells, thermal energy of the far infrared can be transferred to the deeper subcutaneous part of the human body, causing the temperature of the deep subcutaneous layer to rise and causing the generated heat to be dissipated from inside to outside. Under this action, capillaries expand; the blood circulation is promoted; metabolism between tissues is enhanced; the regeneration ability of tissues is improved; body's immunity is improved; and the abnormal mental states are adjusted, thus playing a role in health care. If negative ions can be released in a hair cutting process, static electricity can be neutralized to flatten the open hair cuticles, and repair and smooth the hairs, thus playing a hair care role.
In order to generate negative ions and far infrared waves by air discharged by the hair dryer to bring therapeutic and artistic effects to the hairs, a ceramic heating element is arranged between a corresponding heating mechanism in the hair dryer and an air outlet. The ceramic heating element has a radiation rate generally greater than 85% at a room temperature (25° C. to 150° C.), has high photothermal conversion efficiency, and can generate negative ions. In this regard, the inventor proposes a novel far infrared hair dryer as described in the invention patent No. CN116114988A. A heating mechanism (a heating module) is assembled by arranging an annular heat radiation assembly, an annular heating main body, a far infrared ceramic coating layer, and a fixed bracket. The annular heating main body is configured to be powered on to perform heating and generate thermal energy. The annular heat radiation assembly is used for heat conduction. An outer surface of the annular heat radiation assembly is coated with a layer of far infrared ceramic coating layer. The far infrared ceramic coating layer is formed by mixing far infrared ceramic powder with a high-temperature-resistant adhesive, and then coats the annular heat radiation assembly, so that when the heating element generates heat, the heat can be dissipated through the annular heat radiation assembly to provide a hair drying operation. Furthermore, the heat radiation of the annular heat radiation assembly is also fully used to make the temperature of the far infrared ceramic coating layer reach 25° C. to 150° C., thus generating negative ions and far infrared waves. Due to the fixed bracket, the annular heat radiation assembly can be suspended and wound in an annular chamber, which can maximize the compactness of the overall structure and ensure a smooth air flow. The noise is reduced by reducing resistance to air, and a practical experience that the hair dryer is smaller and more comfortable is brought to a user.
Th heating module is mainly limited to be a single sleeve-like structure based on a guide component arranged in the hair dryer. If the guide component is removed, a space left by removing the guide component needs to be filled with a heating module to achieve the purpose of uniform heating. A general method is to increase the number of sleeve-like structures and mutually sleeve a plurality of sleeve-like structures with different diameters to achieve uniform coverage. However, the mutual sleeving of the plurality of sleeve-like structures with different diameters may cause a tolerance, making it difficult for two adjacent sleeve-like structures to sleeve each other or causing the sleeve-like structures to shake after sleeving, for example, a graphene heating core and a hair dryer as described in the invention patent No. CN112890401. This heating module mainly involves a plurality of sleeve-like structures that are in sleeving fit. To ensure the heat conduction effect, close fit is required between a metal sheet, an outer-layer heat radiator, an outer insulation layer, a graphene heating layer, an inner insulation layer, a substrate tube, and an inner-layer heat radiator. The assembling difficulty would be greatly increased, and both the outer-layer heat radiator and the inner-layer heat radiator are enclosed by a plurality of continuous U-shaped curved panels, so that the heat radiators have a complex structure and are difficult to process. To this end, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution to solve the above problems.

A layer of far infrared coating layer (not shown in the figure) is arranged on a surface of each of the heat radiation inner cylinder 31, the honeycomb-shaped heat radiation plate 40, and the outer heat radiation plate 32, is configured to generate far infrared rays, and has high penetrability and radiation power. Capillaries expand; the blood circulation is promoted; metabolism between tissues is enhanced; the regeneration ability of tissues is improved; body's immunity is improved; and the abnormal mental states are adjusted, thus playing a role in health care. If negative ions can be released in a hair cutting process, static electricity can be neutralized to flatten the open hair cuticles, and repair and smooth the hairs, thus playing a hair care role.
The first heating film 33 and the second heating film 34 are both made of a graphene material or a heating wire material. Graphene generates heat through friction between carbon atoms. This frictional motion is an irregular motion, also referred to as Brownian motion. The graphene, as a far infrared heating mode, releases a life light of 8 to 15 microns. This light is the same as the sun. After being in contact with the human body, the light can resonate and be absorbed and converted by the human body. Therefore, the far infrared rays released during the heating of the graphene is therapeutic light that is beneficial for the human body. Therefore, in this embodiment, the graphene material is preferably used to make the first heating film 33 and the second heating film 34, which can achieve a more efficient hair cutting effect.
