For example, fixing can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrated connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be a communication within two elements or an interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise expressly defined. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to specific situations.

(12) The present disclosure provides a modular hand warmer. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the modular hand warmer includes a heating casing 1 and a power supply component 2. The heating casing 1 is hollow and is provided therein with a power supply cavity 10. The heating casing 1 is provided with a first outlet 11 communicating with the power supply cavity 10. The heating casing 1 is provided with a heating element. The shape of the power supply component 2 is adapted to the power supply cavity 10. The power supply component 2 is capable of being detachably inserted into the power supply cavity 10 from the first outlet 11. The power supply component 2 is electrically connected to the heating element. The heating casing 1 is provided with the first outlet 11 communicating with the power supply cavity 10. The head of the power supply component 2 is capable of extending into or out of the power supply cavity 10 through the first outlet 11. In the present disclosure, when the power supply component 2 is installed in the power supply cavity 10, the power supply component 2 can be electrically connected to the heating element through contact. At this time, the heating element converts electric energy into heat energy to realize the heating function. When the power in the power supply component 2 is insufficient, the power supply component 2 is removed from the first outlet 11, and a new power supply component 2 is loaded into the power supply cavity 10 from the first outlet 11, such that the hand warmer can be continuously used outdoors for a long time. In the present disclosure, the first outlet 11 is provided at the heating casing 1, the power supply component 2 is installed in the power supply cavity 10, that is, the heating casing 1 is sleeved on the power supply component 2 to facilitate installation of the power supply component 2 into the power supply cavity 10 from the first outlet 11 and the removal of the power supply component 2 from the first outlet 11, which is conducive to replacement and use of the power supply component 2. The power supply component 2 with insufficient power is charged separately, which does not affect the use of the modular hand warmer, thereby extending the continuous use time of the modular hand warmer outdoors. In addition, in the present disclosure, the first outlet 11 is provided at the heating casing 1 to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the power supply component 2, which facilitates maintenance and replacement when the power supply component 2 or the heating element in the heating casing 1 malfunctions, thereby reducing the cost. In a preferred embodiment, the detachable connection between the power supply component 2 and the heating casing 1 can be achieved by threaded connection and clamping. In a preferred embodiment, power supply component 2 is a portable power supply, and the portable power supply may specifically include dry batteries or accumulators, such as lithium batteries or nickel-chromium batteries. When the power supply component 2 is separated from the heating casing 1, the power supply component 2 can supply power to the outside through a USB interface to realize the function of a power bank.

(13) Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the modular hand warmer further includes a buckle 3. The surface of heating casing 1 is provided with a clamping slot 12. The power supply component 2 is provided with a groove 21. Groove 21 is located between the head and the tail of the power supply component 2. The head and the tail of the power supply component 2 are at opposite ends of the power supply component 2. The buckle 3 is provided with a hinged portion 31. The hinged portion 31 is rotatably arranged in the clamping slot 12. The first end of buckle 3 is provided with a clamping portion 32. An elastic element 33 is arranged between the second end of the buckle 3 and the bottom of the clamping slot 12. The hinged portion 31 is located between the first end and the second end of buckle 3. The first end and the second end of buckle 3 are opposite ends of buckle 3. One end of the clamping slot 12 is provided with a notch, and the clamping portion 32 is capable of being clamped in groove 21 through the notch.

(14) In the present embodiment, the second end of buckle 3 is subjected to the elastic force of the elastic element 33, the clamping portion 32 at the first end of the buckle 3 rotates through the notch and enters the power supply cavity 10, and the clamping portion 32 on the buckle 3 is buckled in the groove 21 of the power supply component 2. At this time, the clamping portion 32 can be closely attached to groove 21 of the power supply component 2 under the action of the elastic element 33 to install the power supply component 2 in the power supply cavity 10. To remove the power supply component 2, only the second end of the buckle 3 needs to be pressed. At this time, the second end of buckle 3 will compress the elastic element 33, the clamping portion 32 on buckle 3 will withdraw from the power supply cavity 10, and the power supply component 2 can be removed at this time. The clamping portion 32 on buckle 3 is clamped in groove 21 to fix the power supply component 2, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the power supply component 2.

(15) In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, a surface of the head of the power supply component 2 is an arc surface. The clamping portion 32 includes a fixed rod 321 and an elastic rod 322 that are arranged in parallel at the first end of the buckle 3.

(16) One end of the fixed rod 321 and one end of the elastic rod 322 are clamped in the groove 21. A gap is formed between the fixed rod 321 and the elastic rod 322. The end of the elastic rod 322 clamped in groove 21 is capable of being elastically deformed. The distance between the fixed rod 321 and the power supply component 2 is less than the distance between the elastic rod 322 and the power supply component 2. An included angle between a side surface of a side facing the tail of the power supply component 2 on a part of the elastic rod 322 extending into the power supply cavity 10 and a surface of the power supply component 2 is an acute angle. In this way, when the head of the power supply component 2 passes through the first outlet 11 and enters the power supply cavity 10, during the movement of the power supply component 2 in the power supply cavity 10, the arc surface of the head of the power supply component 2 and the inclined surface on the elastic rod 322 can both play a guiding role. When the head of the power supply component 2 is in contact with the elastic rod 322, the fixed rod 321 and the elastic rod 322 can easily slide over the head of the power supply component 2 and be clamped in the groove 21. In addition, the elastic rod 322 is deformed toward the fixed rod 321 under the action of the power supply component 2 until the elastic rod 322 and the fixed rod 321 are completely clamped into the groove 21. At this time, groove 21 is occupied by the elastic rod 322 and the fixing rod 321, and the displacement of the power supply component 2 is restricted.

(17) In addition, a limiting plate 121 is arranged in the clamping slot 12. The limiting plate 121 is located between the hinged portion 31 and the clamping portion 32. The limiting plate 121 is capable of abutting against buckle 3. By arranging the limiting plate 121, the rotation angle of the second end of the buckle 3 can be limited, and the part of the clamping portion 32 extending into the power supply cavity 10 can be precisely designed, such that the clamping portion 32 can be clamped in the groove 21 of the power supply component 2 more securely. The second end of buckle 3 is provided with a guide post 34, and the elastic element 33 is sleeved on the guide post 34. At this time, the elastic element 33 includes one end abutting against the bottom of the clamping slot 12 and the other end abutting against buckle 3. In a preferred embodiment, the elastic element 33 is a spring. In the present embodiment, when the clamping portion 32 is clamped into groove 21 of the power supply component 2, the spring is in a compressed state. At this time, the clamping portion 32 is still closely attached to the bottom of groove 21 under the action of the spring, such that the power supply component 2 will not slide from the power supply cavity 10 during the use of the modular hand warmer provided by the present disclosure.

(18) Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, a second outlet 13 communicating with the power supply cavity 10 is provided at an end of the heating casing 1 opposite to the first outlet 11, and the head of the power supply component 2 is provided with a charging interface 22 and a universal serial bus (USB) output interface 23. In a specific embodiment, the charging interface 22 is a Type-C interface with a fast charging function, and the USB output interface on the power supply component 2 can supply power to external electrical appliances and thus function as a portable power supply. The charging interface 22 and the USB output interface 23 are located within a projection range of the second outlet 13 on the power supply component 2, such that the power supply component 2 can also supply power to external electrical appliances when it is inside the heating casing 1. It should be noted that the size of the second outlet 13 is less than the head of the power supply component 2, and the power supply component 2 cannot pass through the second outlet 13. According to the modular hand warmer provided by the utility model, the power supply component 2 can be removed and charged separately, and the charging cable can be inserted into the charging interface 22 through the second outlet 13 to charge the power supply component 2. At this time, there is no need to remove the power supply component 2, which provides users with different charging methods. The distance from the head to the tail of the power supply component 2 is greater than the distance from the first outlet 11 to the second outlet 13, that is, after the power supply component 2 is installed in the power supply cavity 10, a part of the power supply component 2 is located outside the power supply cavity 10, which facilitates the disassembly of the power supply component 2.

(19) Finally, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the conductive post 14 is arranged in the power supply cavity 10. One end of the conductive post 14 located on one side where the second outlet 13 is located, and the other end of the conductive post 14 points to the first outlet 11. The conductive post 14 is electrically connected to the heating element. A conductive hole 24 is provided at the head of the power supply component 2. A central axis of the conductive hole 24 does not coincide with a central line of the power supply component 2. The head of the power supply component 2 is capable of moving to the second outlet 13 through the first outlet 11. The conductive post 14 is arranged in the conductive hole 24. The power supply component 2 is capable of supplying power to the heating element through the conductive post 14. After the power supply component 2 is installed in the power supply cavity 10, the conductive post 14 can be inserted into the conductive hole 24 to transmit the electric energy of the power supply component 2 to the heating element. If the user does not align the conductive hole 24 on the power supply component 2 with the conductive post 14 when inserting the power supply component 2 into the power supply cavity 10, the power supply component 2 cannot be fixedly installed in the power supply cavity 10 to prevent the user from inserting the power supply component 2 inserted in reverse and play the role of fool-proof design.
