Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioning, and in particular to a humidifying device and an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] At present, some cabinet air conditioners are equipped with humidifiers on the top, which include a water tank and an atomizer mount. When the humidifier is in working state, after the user removes the water tank from the top of the air conditioner, the atomizer mount will continue to work, which is inconvenient for the user to inspect or check the atomizer mount. Moreover, since there is usually accumulated water on the atomizer mount, after the water tank is removed, the accumulated water in the atomizer mount will splash onto the floor of the room under the action of ultrasonic vibration, which may easily cause the user to slip and other phenomena, posing a safety hazard; and when the humidifier is not in working state, after the user removes the water tank, it is easy to start the atomizer mount of the humidifier due to misoperation. Summary of the invention

[0003] The problem solved by the invention is how to prevent the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat from splashing onto the indoor floor after the water tank of the humidifier is removed from the air conditioner.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a humidifying device, comprising:

[0005] Atomizer mount;

[0006] A water tank, which is arranged on the atomizing mounting seat;

[0007] and an electromagnetic induction mechanism, which includes a magnet and a magnetic induction switch, wherein the magnet is arranged on the water tank, and the magnetic induction switch is arranged at a position on the atomization mounting seat corresponding to the magnet;

[0008] When the water tank is placed on the atomizer mounting seat, the magnet cooperates with the magnetic induction switch to make the atomizer mounting seat work; when the water tank is separated from the atomizer mounting seat, the magnet and the magnetic induction switch are separated from each other to stop the atomizer mounting seat from working.

[0009] In this way, during the operation of the humidifier, when the user removes the water tank from the atomizer mounting seat, the water tank is separated from the atomizer mounting seat, and the magnetic induction switch is separated from the magnetic field generated by the magnet. The switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch are disconnected, causing the atomizer mounting seat to stop working quickly due to power failure, thereby preventing the accumulated water in the atomizer mounting seat from splashing onto the indoor floor when the atomizer mounting seat continues to work. At the same time, it is also convenient for the user to perform maintenance or inspection on the atomizer mounting seat. When the user installs the water tank on the atomizer mounting seat, the water tank is connected to the atomizer mounting seat. At this time, the magnetic induction switch is located in the magnetic field generated by the magnet. The switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch contact each other under the suction of the magnet, and the power supply circuit that drives the atomizer mount to work is turned on, so that the atomizer mount starts to work; in this way, the operation and stop of the atomizer mount are controlled by the electromagnetic induction mechanism during the operation of the humidifier, and the structure is simple and easy to implement; moreover, the operation and stop of the atomizer mount are controlled by the magnetic connection and separation of the magnet and the magnetic induction switch, which is low in cost; in addition, when the humidifier is not working, when the user removes the water tank, the separation of the magnet and the magnetic induction switch can prevent the user from accidentally starting the atomizer mount, which is safer to use.

[0010] Optionally, a receiving groove for receiving the magnet is provided at the bottom of the water tank, and the receiving groove is recessed from the bottom of the water tank toward the top of the water tank.

[0011] In this way, by providing a receiving groove at the bottom of the water tank so that the magnet can be installed at the bottom of the water tank, the setting position of the magnet is closer to the induction coil installed on the atomizer mounting seat. In this way, when the water tank is connected to the atomizer mounting seat, the magnet has sufficient magnetic attraction to the magnetic induction switch, ensuring that the atomizer mounting seat can be energized smoothly.

[0012] Optionally, the water tank is provided with a sinking groove which is recessed from the bottom of the water tank toward the top of the water tank, the receiving groove is located above the sinking groove, and the receiving groove and the sinking groove form a stepped groove structure.

[0013] In this way, the setting of the sink groove is equivalent to setting a rib structure around the receiving groove to strengthen the structural strength of the receiving groove, thereby reducing or preventing the deformation of the receiving groove caused by the vibration generated during the operation of the atomizer mounting seat, avoiding the magnet from falling off the receiving groove due to large deformation of the receiving groove, and further ensuring the stability of the magnet when installed in the receiving groove.

[0014] Optionally, the electromagnetic induction mechanism also includes a protective shell covering the magnet, the protective shell is arranged on the water tank and is integrally formed with the water tank, and a accommodating cavity connected to the accommodating groove is formed in the protective shell, and the protective shell cooperates with the water tank to fix the magnet in the accommodating cavity.

[0015] In this way, by providing a protective shell and covering the magnet in the protective shell, not only can the magnet be protected from being damaged and not easily falling, but also the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat can be prevented from splashing onto the magnet, thereby ensuring that the magnet is not easy to rust, making the magnet more durable, and extending the service life of the magnet and even the electromagnetic induction mechanism; in addition, the protective shell can also isolate other impurities such as dust layers from the magnet, making it difficult for the magnet to absorb impurities; at the same time, the provision of the protective shell makes the appearance of the magnet more beautiful.

[0016] Optionally, a notch is provided on the protective shell, and when the protective shell covers the magnet, a portion of the magnet is exposed from the notch.

[0017] In this way, by setting a notch on the protective shell, the difficulty of injection molding between the protective shell and the water tank can be reduced, and the integral molding of the protective shell and the water tank can be facilitated; and a part of the magnet is exposed from the notch, so that during the process of injection molding the protective shell and the water tank together, the magnet can be clamped or fixed at the exposed part of the magnet to improve the convenience of injection molding.

[0018] Optionally, the electromagnetic induction mechanism also includes a fixed bracket, and the magnetic induction switch is installed on the fixed bracket; and a first fixing hole is provided on the fixed bracket, and a second fixing hole is provided on the atomizer mounting seat, and the fixed bracket and the atomizer mounting seat are detachably connected at the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole by fasteners.

[0019] In this way, by setting a fixing bracket to install the magnetic induction switch on the atomizer mounting seat, the magnetic induction switch can be installed and fixed on the atomizer mounting seat without changing the original structure of the atomizer mounting seat or with minor changes to the original structure of the atomizer mounting seat; in addition, by screwing fasteners into the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, a detachable connection between the fixing bracket and the atomizer mounting seat is achieved, which is not only firm but also easy to achieve, saving costs.

[0020] Optionally, a cavity is provided on the fixing bracket, and the cavity is used to accommodate the magnetic induction switch.

[0021] In this way, by arranging a cavity on the fixing bracket so as to facilitate installation of the magnetic induction switch in the cavity, it is possible to prevent the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat from splashing onto the magnetic induction switch, thereby providing a certain degree of protection for the magnetic induction switch.

[0022] Optionally, a first limiting portion is provided on the atomizer mounting seat, and a second limiting portion is provided on the fixed bracket, the first limiting portion is one of a limiting block and a limiting hole, and the second limiting portion is the other of the limiting block and the limiting hole; the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion are plugged into each other.

[0023] In this way, the first limiting part and the second limiting part are respectively arranged on the atomizer mounting seat and the fixed bracket, and the installation of the fixed bracket is pre-positioned by plugging and matching the first limiting part with the second limiting part to improve the convenience of the fixed bracket during the installation process.

[0024] Optionally, the first limiting portion is the limiting block, the second limiting portion is the limiting hole, the first fixing hole and the limiting hole are arranged in parallel on the fixing bracket, and there is a distance between the first fixing hole and the limiting hole.

[0025] In this way, by providing a limiting hole on the fixing bracket and providing a limiting block at a corresponding position on the bottom of the atomizing mounting seat, the fixing bracket can be pre-positioned when the fixing bracket is installed, thereby improving the installation efficiency.

[0026] Optionally, the first limiting portion is the limiting block, the second limiting portion is the limiting hole, the first fixing hole and the limiting hole are arranged in parallel on the fixing bracket, and the first fixing hole is connected to the limiting hole.

[0027] In this way, the first fixing hole and the limiting hole can be obtained simultaneously through only one processing, which simplifies the processing steps of the fixing bracket and reduces the processing difficulty of the fixing bracket.

[0028] Optionally, the first fixing hole and the limiting hole constitute a waist-shaped hole, the limiting block is provided with a limiting surface, and the waist-shaped hole has two arcuate surface walls; when the limiting block is inserted into the waist-shaped hole, the limiting surface fits with one of the two arcuate surface walls.

[0029] In this way, the setting of the waist-shaped hole increases the adjustment range when the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole are aligned, and reduces the difficulty of installing the fixed bracket; moreover, the limiting surface fits with one of the arc-shaped surface walls of the waist-shaped hole, which can limit the displacement of the fixed bracket in the horizontal direction, thereby facilitating the installation of the fixed bracket.

[0030] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention also provides an air conditioner, comprising any of the above-mentioned humidifying devices.

[0031] The advantages of the air conditioner and the humidifying device described above over the prior art are the same and will not be described in detail here. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0047] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the directions or positional relationships indicated by terms such as “up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, “high” and “low” are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0048] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present embodiment provides a humidifying device, comprising: an atomizing mounting seat 2; a water tank 1, which is arranged on the atomizing mounting seat 2; and an electromagnetic induction mechanism 3, which comprises a magnet 31 and a magnetic induction switch 32, the magnet 31 is arranged on the water tank 1, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is arranged at a position on the atomizing mounting seat 2 corresponding to the magnet 31; when the water tank 1 is placed on the atomizing mounting seat 2, the magnet 31 cooperates with the magnetic induction switch 32 to make the atomizing mounting seat 2 work; when the water tank 1 is separated from the atomizing mounting seat 2, the magnet 31 and the magnetic induction switch 32 are separated from each other to stop the atomizing mounting seat 2 from working.

[0049] The atomizing mount 2 uses ultrasonic vibration to atomize the water in the water tank 1, and the atomized water mist is sprayed out from the mist outlet of the humidifying device to humidify the indoor air. The humidifying device in this embodiment can be used on an air conditioner, and can also be used on other household appliances, such as refrigerators and other household appliances. For ease of description, this embodiment and the following text will be described using the humidifying device used on a cabinet air conditioner as an example. The humidifying device is usually installed on the top of the cabinet air conditioner, and the water tank 1 in the humidifying device is set on the atomizing mount 2, and the water tank 1 is located above the atomizing mount 2 (i.e. Figure 1A direction in the middle), so that it is convenient to remove the water tank 1 from the atomizing mounting seat 2. In addition, the humidifying device in this embodiment is also provided with an electromagnetic induction mechanism 3, the magnet 31 in the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 is installed on the water tank 1, and the magnetic induction switch 32 in the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 is installed on the atomizing mounting seat 2, and the setting position of the magnet 31 corresponds to the setting position of the magnetic induction switch 32, that is, when the water tank 1 is installed on the atomizing mounting seat 2, the magnet 31 is arranged close to the magnetic induction switch 32, so that the magnetic induction switch 32 is located in the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31. The magnetic induction switch 32 usually has two switch contacts, and the two switch contacts are made of metal materials such as iron that can be attracted by the magnet 31. When the magnetic induction switch 32 is located in the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31, the two switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 are in contact with each other under the action of the magnetic attraction of the magnet 31, and the power supply circuit driving the atomizer mounting seat 2 is turned on, so that the atomizer mounting seat 2 starts to work. Conversely, when the magnetic induction switch 32 is separated from the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31, the magnetic attraction exerted on the two switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 disappears, so that the connection between the two switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 is disconnected, which is equivalent to disconnecting the power supply circuit driving the atomizer mounting seat 2, thereby causing the atomizer mounting seat 2 to stop working due to power failure.

[0050] In this embodiment, the magnet 31 in the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 is installed on the water tank 1, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is installed on the atomizing mounting seat 2. In this way, during the operation of the humidifying device, when the user removes the water tank 1 from the atomizing mounting seat 2, the water tank 1 and the atomizing mounting seat 2 are separated. At this time, the magnetic induction switch 32 is separated from the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31, and the switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 are disconnected, so that the atomizing mounting seat 2 stops working quickly due to power failure. At the same time, it is also convenient for the user to perform maintenance or inspection on the atomizing mounting seat 2, thereby preventing the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat 2 from splashing onto the indoor floor when the atomizing mounting seat 2 continues to work. When the user installs the water tank 1 on the atomizing mounting seat 2, the water tank 1 and the atomizing mounting seat 2 are separated. The mounting base 2 is connected, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is located in the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31. The switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 contact each other under the suction force of the magnet 31, and the power supply circuit driving the atomizing mounting base 2 is turned on, so that the atomizing mounting base 2 starts to work; in this way, the operation and stop of the atomizing mounting base 2 are controlled by the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3, and the structure is simple and easy to implement; moreover, the operation and stop of the atomizing mounting base 2 are controlled by the magnetic connection and separation of the magnet 31 and the magnetic induction switch 32, which is low in cost; in addition, when the humidifying device is not working, when the user removes the water tank 1, the separation of the magnet 31 and the magnetic induction switch 32 can prevent the user from accidentally starting the atomizing mounting base 2, which is safer to use.

[0051] Optionally, a receiving cavity is provided on the atomizing mounting seat 2, and the water tank 1 is placed in the receiving cavity, so as to realize the connection between the water tank 1 and the atomizing mounting seat 2, and facilitate the removal of the water tank 1 from the atomizing mounting seat 2.

[0052] Optionally, combined Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a receiving groove 12 for receiving the magnet 31 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1 , and the receiving groove 12 is recessed from the bottom of the water tank 1 toward the top of the water tank 1 .

[0053] The bottom of the water tank 1 refers to the position of the water tank 1 Figure 3 The end in the B direction, and Figure 3 The A direction in the figure represents the upward direction, and the B direction represents the downward direction, that is, the bottom of the water tank 1 is also the lower end of the water tank 1. Similarly, the top of the water tank 1 is the end of the water tank 1 located in the upward direction, that is, the upper end of the water tank 1. The shape of the receiving groove 12 is adapted to the shape of the magnet 31. For example, when the magnet 31 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, the receiving groove 12 is a rectangular groove structure, and the size of the rectangular groove is equivalent to the size of the magnet 31, so that the magnet 31 can be installed in the receiving groove 12 and is not easy to fall. The receiving groove 12 is formed by the lower end of the water tank 1 being recessed toward the top of the water tank 1, and the notch of the receiving groove 12 is set downward. The magnet 31 can be embedded in the receiving groove 12, or a part of it can be placed in the receiving groove 12, and the other part can extend out of the receiving groove 12. In actual production, a suitable setting method can be selected according to specific circumstances.

[0054] In this embodiment, a receiving groove 12 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1 so that the magnet 31 can be installed at the bottom of the water tank 1, so that the setting position of the magnet 31 is closer to the magnetic induction switch 32 installed on the atomizer mounting seat 2. In this way, when the water tank 1 is connected to the atomizer mounting seat 2, the magnet 31 has sufficient magnetic attraction to the magnetic induction switch 32, ensuring that the atomizer mounting seat 2 can be energized smoothly.

[0055] Optionally, combined Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the water tank 1 is provided with a sink 13 which is recessed from the bottom of the water tank 1 toward the top of the water tank 1 , the receiving groove 12 is located above the sink 13 , and the receiving groove 12 and the sink 13 form a stepped groove structure.

[0056] The sink 13 is arranged at the bottom of the water tank 1 and is connected to the receiving tank 12 to form a stepped tank structure. At the same time, in the vertical direction, the sink 13 is located below the receiving tank 12. Like the receiving tank 12, the sink 13 is also formed by the lower end surface of the water tank 1 being recessed toward the top of the water tank 1, and the notch of the sink 13 is also arranged downward. The sink 13 is composed of a groove wall in the horizontal direction and a groove wall in the vertical direction (i.e. Figure 3The sink 13 is surrounded by the groove walls in the up and down directions (in the upper and lower directions), wherein the groove wall of the sink 13 located in the upper direction is called the groove bottom of the sink 13, and the groove opening of the accommodating groove 12 is arranged on the groove bottom of the sink 13.

[0057] In this embodiment, the setting of the sink groove 13 is equivalent to setting a rib structure around the receiving groove 12 to strengthen the structural strength of the receiving groove 12, thereby reducing or preventing the deformation of the receiving groove 12 caused by the vibration generated during the operation of the atomizer mounting seat 2, avoiding the magnet 31 from falling out of the receiving groove 12 due to the large deformation of the receiving groove 12, and further ensuring the stability of the magnet 31 when installed in the receiving groove 12.

[0058] Optionally, combined Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 also includes a protective shell 33 covering the magnet 31. The protective shell 33 is arranged on the water tank 1 and is integrally formed with the water tank 1. A receiving cavity connected to the receiving groove 12 is formed in the protective shell 33. The protective shell 33 cooperates with the water tank 1 to fix the magnet 31 in the receiving cavity.

[0059] Since the magnet 31 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 1, the protective shell 33 is also installed at the bottom of the water tank 1; the protective shell 33 is usually made of plastic materials such as ABS (polyacrylonitrile), PP (polypropylene) or PVC (polyvinyl chloride), and the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 can be fixedly connected, such as welding or one-piece molding or riveting, or detachably connected, such as plug-in or snap-on or threaded connection. In this embodiment, the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 are preferably one-piece molded. It should be noted that when the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 are injection molded together, the magnet 31 must first be installed in the receiving groove 12, and then the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 are injection molded; injection molding is used to achieve the connection between the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1, which can ensure the connection strength between the two; at the same time, it can also further improve the firmness and stability of the magnet 31 fixed in the protective shell 33. A receiving cavity is formed in the protective shell 33. After the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 are integrally formed, the receiving cavity is connected to the receiving groove 12, and the magnet 31 is wrapped in the cavity formed by the receiving cavity and the receiving groove 12. The protective shell 33 may cover the entire magnet 31 together with the sink 13 in the protective shell 33, or only the magnet 31 and the receiving groove 12 are covered in the protective shell 33. In this embodiment, the protective shell 33 preferably only covers the magnet 31 and the receiving groove 12 in the protective shell 33. At this time, the protective shell 33 is connected to the bottom of the sink 13, so that a part of the protective shell 33 is inserted in the sink 13. Such a configuration can reduce the volume of the protective shell 33.

[0060] In this embodiment, by providing a protective shell 33 and covering the magnet 31 in the protective shell 33, not only can the magnet 31 be protected from being damaged and not easily dropped, but also the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat 2 can be prevented from splashing onto the magnet 31, thereby ensuring that the magnet 31 is not easy to rust, making the magnet 31 more durable, and extending the service life of the magnet 31 and even the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3; in addition, the protective shell 33 can also isolate other impurities such as dust layers from the magnet 31, making it difficult for the magnet 31 to absorb impurities; at the same time, the provision of the protective shell 33 makes the appearance of the magnet 31 more beautiful.

[0061] Optionally, combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a notch 331 is provided on the protective shell 33 . When the protective shell 33 is covered on the magnet 31 , a portion of the magnet 31 is exposed from the notch 331 .

[0062] Specifically, the protective shell 33 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, the magnet 31 is a rectangular block structure, and one or more notches 331 can be provided. When there is one notch 331, the notch 331 is provided at any one of the four mutually parallel edges of the rectangular parallelepiped structure. When there are multiple notches 331, the multiple notches 331 are respectively provided at the four mutually parallel edges of the rectangular parallelepiped structure. Taking the example of notches 331 being provided at the four mutually parallel edges of the protective shell 33, such a setting makes most of the area of ​​the magnet 31 covered by the protective shell 33, leaving only the four corners of the magnet 31 exposed.

[0063] In this embodiment, by setting a notch 331 on the protective shell 33, the difficulty of injection molding between the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 can be reduced, and the integral molding of the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 is facilitated; and a part of the magnet 31 is exposed from the notch 331, so that during the process of injection molding the protective shell 33 and the water tank 1 together, the magnet 31 can be clamped or fixed at the exposed part of the magnet 31 to improve the convenience of injection molding.

[0064] Optionally, combined Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 also includes a fixing bracket 34, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is installed on the fixing bracket 34; and a first fixing hole 341 is provided on the fixing bracket 34, and a second fixing hole 21 is provided on the atomizer mounting seat 2, and the fixing bracket 34 and the atomizer mounting seat 2 are detachably connected at the first fixing hole 341 and the second fixing hole 21 through fasteners.

[0065] The magnetic induction switch 32 is installed on the atomizer mounting seat 2 at a position corresponding to the magnet 31 through a fixing bracket 34; a first fixing hole 341 is provided on the fixing bracket 34 and passes through the fixing bracket 34, and a second fixing hole 21 is provided at a corresponding position on the atomizer mounting seat 2. The second fixing hole 21 can be set to pass through the atomizer mounting seat 2, or the second fixing hole 21 can be closed at one end facing the first fixing hole 341, that is, the second fixing hole 21 does not pass through the atomizer mounting seat 2, and this is not specifically limited in the present embodiment. The second fixing hole 21 is a circular hole with threads on the hole wall, and the first fixing hole 341 is a circular hole or a waist-shaped hole; when the first fixing hole 341 and the second fixing hole 21 are both circular holes, the aperture of the first fixing hole 341 is slightly larger than the aperture of the second fixing hole 21; when the first fixing hole 341 and the second fixing hole 21 are waist-shaped holes and circular holes respectively, the vertical distance between the two parallel hole walls of the waist-shaped hole is slightly larger than the aperture of the second fixing hole 21; in this way, it is convenient for fasteners such as screws or bolts to pass through the first fixing hole 341 and then be screwed into the second fixing hole 21, so as to realize the detachable connection between the fixing bracket 34 and the atomization mounting seat 2.

[0066] In this embodiment, the magnetic induction switch 32 is installed on the atomizer mounting seat 2 by setting a fixing bracket 34, so that the magnetic induction switch 32 can be installed and fixed on the atomizer mounting seat 2 without changing the original structure of the atomizer mounting seat 2 or with minor changes to the original structure of the atomizer mounting seat 2; in addition, a detachable connection between the fixing bracket 34 and the atomizer mounting seat 2 is achieved by screwing fasteners into the first fixing hole 341 and the second fixing hole 21, which is not only firmly connected but also easy to achieve, thus saving costs.

[0067] Optionally, combined Figure 7 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a cavity 342 is provided on the fixing bracket 34 , and the cavity 342 is used to accommodate the magnetic induction switch 32 .

[0068] The cavity 342 is adapted to the magnetic induction switch 32, that is, the cross-sectional shape of the cavity 342 is similar to the cross-sectional shape of the magnetic induction switch 32, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the cavity 342 is slightly larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the magnetic induction switch 32. For example, when the cross-section of the magnetic induction switch 32 is square, the cross-sectional shape of the cavity 342 is also square, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the cavity 342 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the magnetic induction switch 32; for another example, when the cross-section of the magnetic induction switch 32 is circular, the cross-sectional shape of the cavity 342 is also circular, and the diameter of the circular cavity 342 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the magnetic induction switch 32.

[0069] In this embodiment, a cavity 342 is provided on the fixing bracket 34 so that the magnetic induction switch 32 can be installed in the cavity 342 , thereby preventing the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat 2 from splashing onto the magnetic induction switch 32 , thereby providing a certain degree of protection for the magnetic induction switch 32 .

[0070] Optionally, combined Figures 7 to 10 As shown, a first limiting portion 22 is provided on the atomizer mounting seat 2, and a second limiting portion 343 is provided on the fixing bracket 34. The first limiting portion 22 is one of a limiting block and a limiting hole, and the second limiting portion 343 is the other of the limiting block and the limiting hole; the first limiting portion 22 is plugged into and matched with the second limiting portion 343.

[0071] That is to say, a limit block can be provided on the atomizer mounting seat 2 and a limit hole can be provided on the fixed bracket 34, or a limit hole can be provided on the atomizer mounting seat 2 and a limit block can be provided on the fixed bracket 34, wherein the limit block is plugged into and matched with the limit hole.

[0072] In this embodiment, a first limiting portion 22 and a second limiting portion 343 are respectively provided on the atomizer mounting seat 2 and the fixed bracket 34, and the installation of the fixed bracket 34 is pre-positioned by plugging and fitting the first limiting portion 22 and the second limiting portion 343 to improve the convenience of the fixed bracket 34 during the installation process.

[0073] Optionally, combined Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the first limiting portion 22 is a limiting block, the second limiting portion 343 is a limiting hole, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are arranged in parallel on the fixing bracket 34, and there is a distance between the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole.

[0074] In this embodiment, the first limiting portion 22 is a limiting block, and the second limiting portion 343 is a limiting hole. Figure 7 The first limiting portion 22 extends in the middle B direction, that is, the first limiting portion 22 extends downward, and the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are parallel to each other and have a spacing, that is, the second limiting portion 343 and the first fixing hole 341 are separately arranged on the fixing bracket 34, such as Fig. 9 Thus, by setting a limiting hole on the fixing bracket 34 and setting a limiting block at a corresponding position at the bottom of the atomizing mounting seat 2, the fixing bracket 34 can be pre-positioned when the fixing bracket 34 is installed, thereby improving the installation efficiency.

[0075] Optionally, the cross-sections of the first limiting portion 22 and the second limiting portion 343 are both semicircular. This means that the cross-sections of the limiting block and the limiting hole are also semicircular; this allows the limiting block to have a flat surface and an arcuate surface, and the limiting hole to have a plane hole wall and an arcuate hole wall. When the limiting block is inserted into the limiting hole, the flat surface of the limiting block fits with the plane hole wall of the limiting hole, and the arcuate surface of the limiting block fits with the arcuate hole wall of the limiting hole. In this way, the plane hole wall of the limiting hole can prevent the limiting block from rotating in the limiting hole, thereby preventing the first limiting portion 22 and the second limiting portion 343 from rotating relative to each other, so that the plug-in fit between the first limiting portion 22 and the second limiting portion 343 has a better limiting effect and higher stability.

[0076] Optionally, combined Figures 7 to 10 As shown, the first limiting portion 22 is a limiting block, the second limiting portion 343 is a limiting hole, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are arranged in parallel on the fixing bracket 34, and the first fixing hole 341 is connected to the limiting hole.

[0077] In this embodiment, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are arranged in parallel and are connected to each other, that is, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are combined into a through hole to form an integrated structure. Fig.10 With such arrangement, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole can be obtained simultaneously through only one processing, which simplifies the processing steps of the fixing bracket 34 and reduces the processing difficulty of the fixing bracket 34 .

[0078] Optionally, combined Figure 8 , Figures 10 to 12 As shown, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole form a waist-shaped hole, the limiting block is provided with a limiting surface 221, and the waist-shaped hole has two arcuate surface walls 3431; when the limiting block is inserted into the waist-shaped hole, the limiting surface 221 fits with one of the two arcuate surface walls 3432.

[0079] In the present embodiment, the first limiting portion 22 is a limiting block, the second limiting portion 343 is a limiting hole, the limiting block is provided with a limiting surface 221, the first fixing hole 341 and the limiting hole are combined into a waist-shaped hole, and the waist-shaped hole has two arcuate hole walls 3431, and the area surrounded by any one of the two arcuate hole walls 3431 of the waist-shaped hole constitutes the limiting hole, and the area surrounded by the remaining hole walls constitutes the first fixing hole 341. Since the limiting surface 221 fits with the arcuate hole wall 3431, the limiting surface 221 also presents an arc surface structure. When the fixed bracket 34 is installed on the atomization mounting seat 2, the first limiting portion 22 with a limiting block structure is inserted into the waist-shaped hole, and the limiting surface 221 on the first limiting portion 22 fits with any one of the two arcuate hole walls 3431 of the waist-shaped hole. In this way, the setting of the waist-shaped hole increases the adjustment range when the first fixing hole 341 is aligned with the second fixing hole 21, and reduces the difficulty of installing the fixed bracket 34; moreover, the limiting surface 221 is in contact with one of the arc-shaped surface walls 3431 of the waist-shaped hole, which can limit the displacement of the fixed bracket 34 in the horizontal direction, thereby facilitating the installation of the fixed bracket 34.

[0080] The present invention also provides an air conditioner to solve the problem of how to prevent the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat from splashing onto the indoor floor after the water tank of the humidifier is removed from the air conditioner. The air conditioner includes any of the above-mentioned humidifying devices.

[0081] The air conditioner in this embodiment is provided with an electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 in the humidifying device, and the magnet 31 in the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3 is installed on the water tank 1, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is installed on the atomizing mounting seat 2. In this way, during the operation of the humidifying device, when the user removes the water tank 1 from the atomizing mounting seat 2, the water tank 1 and the atomizing mounting seat 2 are separated, and at this time, the magnetic induction switch 32 is separated from the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31, and the switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 are disconnected, so that the atomizing mounting seat 2 stops working quickly due to power failure, thereby preventing the accumulated water in the atomizing mounting seat 2 from splashing onto the indoor floor when the atomizing mounting seat 2 continues to work, and at the same time, it is convenient for the user to perform maintenance or inspection on the atomizing mounting seat 2, and when the user installs the water tank 1 on the atomizing mounting seat 2, the water tank 1 and the atomizing mounting seat 2 are separated. The mounting seat 2 is connected, and the magnetic induction switch 32 is located in the magnetic field generated by the magnet 31. The switch contacts of the magnetic induction switch 32 contact each other under the suction force of the magnet 31, and the power supply circuit driving the atomizing mounting seat 2 is turned on, so that the atomizing mounting seat 2 starts to work; in this way, the operation and stop of the atomizing mounting seat 2 can be controlled by the electromagnetic induction mechanism 3, and the structure is simple and easy to implement; in addition, when the humidifying device is not working, when the user removes the water tank 1, the separation of the magnet 31 and the magnetic induction switch 32 can prevent the user from accidentally starting the atomizing mounting seat 2, and it is safer to use.

[0082] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
