Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of humidifiers, in particular to a humidifier for air conditioning. Background Art

[0002] Air conditioning is a device that uses artificial means to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, flow rate and other parameters of the ambient air in a building or structure. When the air conditioner is cooling, the indoor air is constantly passing through the low-temperature evaporator. When the hot air passes through, the moisture in the air will condense into water droplets on the evaporator, and then the accumulated water will be discharged to the outside through the guide grooves and guide pipes on the surface of the evaporator. The humidity of the indoor air is reduced, and a humidifier is usually placed to balance the humidity in the air. However, when placing a humidifier indoors, water needs to be added frequently to ensure that the air humidity is sufficient, and the air conditioner condenses into water droplets, which also requires a separate pipe to guide, which is inconvenient to use.

[0003] Although the existing air-conditioning external humidifier can inject the air-conditioning condensate into the humidifier for use when in use, which can save energy, it is usually configured to directly inject the condensate into the humidifier without caching and storing the condensate, and when the flow rate of the condensate is greater than the usage consumption of the humidifier, the condensate is easy to overflow. If there is no overflow channel, the condensate will accumulate inside the air-conditioning unit, posing a safety hazard. Most of the current humidifier equipment has a waterless power-off function, and when there is temporarily no large amount of condensate generated inside the air-conditioning unit, the humidifier is intermittently pumping water, which can easily cause the humidifier to be repeatedly started, increasing power consumption, which is not conducive to saving energy. For this reason, a humidifier for air conditioning is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0007] Preferably, a liquid level detector is installed at the inner bottom of the water storage box, and a signal output end of the liquid level detector is signal-connected to a signal input end of the timing controller.

[0008] Preferably, the double-sided adhesive layer is a high-viscosity double-sided adhesive.

[0010] Preferably, the filter head is located at the inner bottom of the water storage box.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The utility model provides a water storage box. When the amount of condensed water stored in the water storage box is too much, the condensed water is discharged through the high water level discharge port, and the condensed water is normally discharged through the connected discharge pipe, so that the condensed water can be prevented from directly overflowing and dripping onto the floor, and the condensed water can be prevented from accumulating in the air-conditioner, which can reduce safety hazards and increase safety in use. A liquid level detection head is provided to detect the water level of the condensed water stored in the water storage box.

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0019] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The embodiment of the utility model provides a humidifier for air conditioning, including: an air conditioning indoor unit 1, a double-sided adhesive layer 2 is bonded to one side of the outside of the air conditioning indoor unit 1, and a shell 3 is bonded to the outside of the double-sided adhesive layer 2.

[0020] Among them, a water storage box 4 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the shell 3, and a condensate inlet 13 is opened on the outside of the water storage box 4. A partition 8 is fixedly connected to the inside of the shell 3, and a spray humidifier 7 is installed on the partition 8. The water inlet of the spray humidifier 7 is connected with a water suction pipe 10, one end of the water suction pipe 10 passes through the partition 8 and the water storage box 4 and is connected with a filter head 12. A timing controller 14 is installed inside the shell 3, and the electrical control end of the timing controller 14 is electrically connected to the electrical control input end of the spray humidifier 7. A high water level discharge port 9 is opened on the outer upper end of the water storage box 4, and the outside of the high water level discharge port 9 is connected with a discharge pipe 6, and the discharge pipe 6 passes through the outer wall of the shell 3. A liquid level detector 11 is installed on the inner bottom of the water storage box 4, and the signal output end of the liquid level detector 11 is signal-connected with the signal input end of the timing controller 14.

The spray outlet of the spray humidifier 7 passes through the upper wall of the shell 3 and is located above the shell 3 .

[0021] When in use, the condensed water in the air conditioner 1 is discharged into the water storage box 4 through the condensed water pipe 5, and the timing controller 14 starts the spray humidifier 7 for spray humidification according to the set time. The spray humidifier 7 draws water from the water storage box 4 through the water suction pipe 10 and utilizes the condensed water.

[0022] When the amount of condensed water stored in the water storage box 4 is too much, it is discharged through the high water level discharge port 9, and the condensed water is discharged normally through the connected discharge pipe 6 to prevent the outflow channel of the condensed water from being blocked and accumulating in the air conditioner indoor unit 1.

If the water level is low, a signal is sent to the timing controller 14, and the timing controller 14 stops starting the spray humidifier 7 to prevent the spray humidifier 7 from working under waterless conditions. When the air conditioner indoor unit 1 is not started, the timing controller 14 will not start the spray humidifier 7 to work. If the water level is high, the spray humidifier 7 is automatically started.

[0024] Among them, in order to filter the condensed water entering the spray humidifier 7, one end of the water suction pipe 10 is connected to a filter head 12, and the filter head 12 is located at the inner bottom of the water storage box 4; in order to make the shell 3 more firmly bonded and fixed to the outside of the air conditioner indoor unit 1, the double-sided adhesive layer 2 uses high-viscosity double-sided adhesive.

[0025] According to the above technical solution, the working steps of this solution are summarized and sorted out: when the utility model is in use, the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit 1 is discharged into the water storage box 4 through the condensed water pipe 5, and the timing controller 14 starts the spray humidifier 7 for spray humidification according to the set time. The spray humidifier 7 draws water from the water storage box 4 through the water suction pipe 10 to utilize the condensed water. When the amount of condensed water stored in the water storage box 4 is too much, it is discharged through the high water level discharge port 9, and the condensed water is discharged normally through the connected discharge pipe 6 to avoid the outflow channel of the condensed water being blocked and accumulated in the air conditioner indoor unit 1. The liquid level detection head 11 can detect the condensed water storage water level in the water storage box 4. If the water level is low, a signal is sent to the timing controller 14, and the timing controller 14 stops starting the spray humidifier 7 to prevent the spray humidifier 7 from working under waterless conditions.
