Air conditioner with humidifier

Abstract

The invention discloses an air conditioner with a humidifying device. The air conditioner comprises a compressor unit, a four-way valve, an evaporator, a condenser, a throttling device and a humidifying device. The four-way valve is connected with the compressor unit, the evaporator is connected with the four-way valve, the condenser is connected with the four-way valve, and the throttling device and the humidifying device are connected with the evaporator and the condenser. The humidifying device is provided with a water storage container, a refrigerant branch and an atomizing device. The water storage container is used for storing condensate water generated by the evaporator, and the refrigerant branch is used for dividing parts of gaseous high-temperature refrigerants in the heating defrosting process so as to heat water in the water storage container; and the atomizing device is used for atomizing the water in the water storage container so as to humidify the indoor place. Due to the fact that the air conditioner is provided with the humidifying device, through the condensate water generated by the evaporator in the heating defrosting and refrigerating process and stored in the water storage container, the water supplementing frequency is reduced; and the refrigerant branch divides parts of gaseous high-temperature refrigerants in the heating defrosting process so as to heat water in the water storage container, and therefore the power consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air conditioning, in particular to an air conditioner with a humidifying device. Background technique [0002] At present, the use of household air conditioners has been popularized. However, with the development of society, people pay more attention to the comfort and health of household air conditioners, and the ambient humidity is one of the important factors affecting the comfort. [0003] Existing household air conditioners can change the temperature of the indoor environment according to demand, but usually they can only dehumidify but not humidify. Even if some air conditioner products add humidification function, they only install electric heating humidifiers on the indoor units. The humidification method is low in cost, fast in humidification, and convenient to use, but it has the disadvantages of high power consumption and frequent replenishment of water.
