no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0040] Next, an air cleaner 1 having a humidifying function will be described as an example of a humidifier to which the present invention is applied. In addition, the present invention does not have an air cleaning function as an essential component, and can be applied to a humidifier that does not have an air cleaning function.

[0041] (1) The overall structure of the air purifier

[0042] figure 1 with figure 2 The outline of the whole structure of the air cleaner 1 which concerns on 1st Embodiment of this invention is shown. figure 1 It is a perspective view viewed from the upper left toward the back of the air cleaner 1 . figure 2 is shown in figure 1 The figure of the situation of removing the water tank 31 in the air cleaner 1 of . This air cleaner 1 has a humidifying function and an air cleaning function, and can realize an air cleaning operation in which only air cleaning is performed without humidification, and a humidification operation in which both humidif...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0098] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In addition, the same code|symbol is used for the part which has the same structure as 1st Embodiment, and the description is abbreviate|omitted suitably.

[0099] The structure of the control part of the air cleaner of this embodiment differs from the control part 60 of 1st Embodiment, and other structures are the same as 1st Embodiment.

[0100] The judging unit of this embodiment judges that the water supply needs to be notified, when the humidification operation starts (until a predetermined time (for example, 1 minute) elapses from the start of the humidification operation) and during the humidification operation (after a predetermined time elapses from the start of the humidification operation). judge differently. That is, when the OFF signal from the detection unit 70 continues for the first determination time T3 (for example, 20 seconds) at the start of the humidification operation, the deter...

Abstract

The invention relates to a humidifier that is capable of setting the time for humidifying and running in advance. The object is that a user can be reliably notified when the humidifier stays in a state that water needs to be supplied. The humidifier comprises: a water storage container used for storing water; a detection portion used for detecting a water level in the water storing container; a notification portion used for notifiying a situation that water needs to be supplied to the humidifier; a control portion used for controlling the notification portion based on a detection result from the detection portion; and a pre-set unit used for setting the time for automatically humidifying and running. When the control portion is setting the starting time, the notification portion is controlled to notify the state that water needs to be supplied under a condition that the water level in the water storage container, detected by the detection portion, is lower than a prescribed height.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a humidifier capable of scheduling a time to start a humidification operation. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there are humidifiers that humidify a room using water stored in a water storage tank. For example, in the humidifier disclosed in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2003-97829), water is supplied to the water tank from a water supply tank that can be attached and detached from the water tank (water storage container), and the air passes through the humidifier immersed in the water tank. The humidified air is generated through the vaporization filter in the water in the interior, and the room is humidified by the humidified air thus generated. A detection unit is installed in the water tank to detect the height of the water surface. When it is detected that the water level in the water tank is lower than the specified height, the user will be notified by a b...
