Description

Dryer {DRYER}

The present invention relates to a dryer, and more particularly, to a dryer having two fans rotated around a common axis.

The dryer for drying the human body should not be damaged by the drying air when used, and the temperature of the drying air should be maintained to the extent that the user feels comfortable, whereas drying should be completed as quickly as possible. In addition, noise caused by air flow should be reduced, and it should be designed so that the user can easily use the dryer.

Therefore, it is necessary to design the dryer in consideration of the overall size and shape of the dry ear, the heating temperature of the drying air, the discharge amount and discharge speed, and the size of the discharge port, as well as the constitution characteristics of the object to be dried. .

On the other hand, if the object to be dried is an infant or a companion animal, communication with the infant or companion animal is difficult even when pain is caused, so the drying air is dried so that drying suitable for each constitutional characteristic can be carried out. It is preferable that the temperature and the discharge rate are automatically adjusted and designed to allow the infant or companion animal to enjoy the drying process while being curious while drying is performed.

US 2006 / 0254073A1 discloses a dual-fan hairdrying apparatus. This conventional technique includes two axial fans that rotate about a common axis, one of the two axial fans being a suction fan that sucks outside air into the device, and the other is disposed downstream of the suction fan. As the discharge fan, it is rotated in the same direction as the suction fan.

When air passes through two axial fans that rotate in the same direction, the air stream sent by the first axial fan has a circumferential velocity component, which is one cause of reducing the efficiency of the fan. Therefore, when the airflow output from the first axial fan is directly input to the second axial fan, the circumferential speed component becomes larger, which not only decreases the overall efficiency of the fan, but also adversely affects performance.

In order to solve this problem, the prior art is to install a vane between two axial fans, so that air passing through the upstream axial fan is guided in a linear direction by the vanes and then sucked into the axial fan located on the downstream side. have.

By the way, such a structure increases the cost due to the installation of the vane, as well as the manufacturing process is added, it is not easy to actually increase the efficiency of the fan due to drag or frictional force applied to the vane by air. .

In addition, in the prior art, the two axial fans cannot be selectively driven because the two axial fans are integrally rotated by one motor shaft.

The first problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a dryer that increases the efficiency of the fan by reducing the velocity component in the circumferential direction of the air stream sent by the blowing fan.

The second problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a dryer capable of correcting airflow deflected by an upstream fan in a linear direction without installing a separate vane between two axial fans.

The third problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a dryer capable of sending soft wind to a distance by increasing the suction power of the suction fan and gently discharging the airflow.

By the suction force generated when the first fan 21 is rotated, the outside air of the casing 10 is inside the casing 10 through a plurality of first through holes 150 and 161 and a plurality of second through holes 141. It can be introduced into.

In addition, the circumferential velocity component included in the air stream sent when the first fan 21 is rotated may be discharged to the outside of the casing 10 through the plurality of second through holes 141. Accordingly, the airflow sent forward by the rotation of the second fan 22 (see FIG. 8) may improve the straightness and can be blown farther toward the front of the casing 10.

Each of the plurality of second through holes 141 is formed to be long in the front-rear direction, the front end is located in front of the blade 212 of the first fan 21, and the rear end is more than the blade 212 of the first fan 21. It can be located at the rear. Accordingly, when the first fan 21 is rotated, external air of the casing 10 may be introduced into the casing 10 through the rear portions of each of the plurality of second through holes 141, and the plurality of second through holes (141) The circumferential velocity component included in the air stream sent when the first fan 21 is rotated through each front portion may be discharged to the outside of the casing 10.

It can be formed spaced apart.

'Combination' described above or later means that the two components are integrally combined or assembled by a known bonding method such as fusion, adhesion, forced insertion, screwing, bolting, or keying.

4C, 6 and 7, the blowing fan 20 may be accommodated inside the casing 10. Preferably, the blowing fan 20 may be installed inside the rear portion of the casing 10.

The blowing fan 20 includes a first fan 21 and a second fan 22 disposed on the downstream side of the first fan 21 in the air flow direction. When defining a predetermined imaginary axis extending in the front-rear direction, the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 rotate around the virtual axis, while rotating in opposite directions to the rear air Is sent forward. That is, the rotation direction of the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 is opposite, but the direction in which air flow is transmitted is the same as the front.

The first fan 21 and the second fan 22 may be axial fans, respectively, in this case, each fan 21 and 22 is a rotating shaft rotated by a motor, as shown in FIG. 8. It includes a hub (211, 221) and a plurality of blades (212, 222) arranged in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral surface of the hub (211, 221).

Hereinafter, a portion in which the hubs 211 and 221 and the blades 212 and 222 are connected to each fan 21 and 22 is defined as a blade root or a root. (See Fig. 9) The first blade root BR1 defined by the first hub 211 and the first blade 212 in the first fan 21 has a first direction (+) with respect to the virtual axis Z. ρ). In addition, the second blade root BR2 defined by the second hub 221 and the second blade 222 in the second fan 22 has a second direction (−ρ, that is, with respect to the virtual axis Z). It is inclined in the first direction (+ ρ).

Since the first blade 211 and the second blade 221 are inclined in the opposite direction with respect to the virtual axis Z, the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 are rotated in opposite directions. Both fans 21, 22 send airflow in the same direction (+ Z).

The air flow sent by the first fan 21 has a circumferential component of velocity in the rotational direction of the first fan 21. The circumferential velocity component not only decreases the linearity of the airflow, but also causes vortex formation and disturbs the flow, which causes the efficiency or performance of the fan to deteriorate.

In the present invention, since the circumferential speed component decreases as the air flow from the first fan 21 passes through the second fan 22, which is counter-rotated, as a result, it is transmitted from the second fan 22. The straightness of the airflow is enhanced.

Meanwhile, the second fan 22 may include a larger number of blades than the first fan 21. Preferably, the second fan 22 includes six second blades 222, and the first fan 21 includes five first blades 212, but the number of blades must be limited thereto. It is not done.

The hub radius of the first fan 21 and the tip radius (distance from the center (O) of the fan to the tip of the blades 212 and 222 (the point farthest from the hub)) is the second fan ( The hub radius Rh and the tip radius Rt of 22) may be respectively the same.

As the number of blades increases, it seems that more wind can be blown, but the air volume tends to decrease because the drag force and friction force that air receives from the blades also increases. However, if the number of blades is large, soft air is discharged because air is blown out finely by the blades. Conversely, when the number of blades is small, stronger wind can be generated under the same conditions.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the first fan 21 having a relatively small number of blades is disposed on the upstream side to increase the suction force, and the second fan 22 has a larger number of blades than the first fan 22 ) Was placed on the downstream side so that soft wind was discharged. In particular, since the strong wind sent by the first fan 21 is sucked into the second fan 22, as a result, the wind sent by the second fan 22 has strong and soft properties.

A first fan motor 24 for operating the first fan 21 and a second fan motor 25 for rotating the second fan 22 may be provided. The first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 are disposed between the first fan 21 and the second fan 22, so that the second fan 22 is positioned in front of the first fan 21. Can be located at

The rotation axis 241 of the first fan motor 24 may extend from front to rear along a virtual axis (or coaxial Z) to be connected to the first hub 211 of the first fan 21. Similarly, the rotation axis 251 of the second fan motor 25 extends from the rear to the front along the virtual axis Z to be connected to the hub 221 of the second fan 22.

That is, in the embodiment, the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 are rotated around a common virtual axis Z, but rotating shafts of different fan motors arranged on the virtual axis , 241, 251). Accordingly, when the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 are independently controlled by the control of the respective fan motors 24 and 25 by the control unit 98, the first fan 21 And the driving aspect of the second fan 22.

For example, the control unit 98 may control the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 to be selectively operated. In this case, only the first fan motor 24 may be operated, only the second fan motor 25 may be operated, or the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 may be operated together.

At least one of the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 may be a motor capable of speed control. For example, it may be a BLDC motor (Brushless Direct Current motor).

Meanwhile, depending on the embodiment, it is also possible that the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 are rotated opposite to each other by one motor. For example, a rotating shaft of a motor is fitted, a hollow shaft is rotated in a direction opposite to the rotating shaft by a gear train, a first fan 21 is connected to the rotating shaft, and the hollow shaft is made of 2 fans 22 may be connected.

In addition, the first fan 21 is disposed inside the cylindrical cap 14 when rotated, the 1-1 through-hole 151 formed in the rear cover 15, the 1-2 through-hole formed in the ring 16 ( 161) and through the second through hole 141 formed in the cylindrical cap 14, it can be designed to mainly perform the function of allowing the outside air to flow into the casing 10.

The second fan 22 is disposed downstream of the first fan, and transmits external air introduced by the first fan 21 toward the front side of the casing 10, that is, in the direction of the discharge tube 30 It can be designed to perform functions primarily.

When the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 are manufactured to mainly perform functions as an air inlet fan and an air outlet fan, the air flow noise is reduced and the noise is reduced while the air inflow amount and the blowing amount are increased. The dryer can be operated.

In addition, by operating only one of the first fan 21 and the second fan 22, it is possible to adjust the amount of drying air discharged from the dryer to be reduced.

By rotating the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 such that the rotational directions of the first fan 21 and the second fan 22 are opposite to each other, it is possible to further improve air inflow and outgoing efficiency.

Meanwhile, between the first and second fans 21 and 22, a fan mount 27 for fixing the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 24 in the casing 10 may be installed. The fan mount 27 includes a motor housing 270 in which the first fan motor 24 and the second fan motor 25 are accommodated, and a fixed rod 26 protruding radially outward from the motor housing 270. can do. The fixed rod 26 may be fixed to the inner side of the inner sleeve 50, the end portion 261 of which will be described later. A plurality of fixing rods 26 may be formed.

The motor housing 270 may include a housing body 271 having an open front surface and a housing cover 272 covering an open front surface of the housing body 271.
