Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a household appliance for humidifying the environment, and more particularly to a humidifier, a novel ultrasonic humidifier without a drain valve. Background Technology
[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance that increases the humidity in a room. Humidifiers can humidify a specific room or be connected to a boiler or central air conditioning system to humidify the entire building.
[0003] Most existing humidifiers use negative pressure sealing, which requires water to be added from the bottom, which is inconvenient. There are top-filling humidifiers controlled by solenoid valves, but they are expensive and noisy. There are also top-filling humidifiers, but they have a complex structure and are noisy. Summary of the Invention
[0004] One object of the present invention is to provide a humidifier with an automatically adjustable ultrasonic humidification component, thereby eliminating the need for a traditional humidifier drain valve.
[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a humidifier that reduces noise.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a humidifier with low cost.
[0007] The present invention provides a humidifier, comprising:
[0008] The main body includes a water tank;
[0009] An ultrasonic humidification assembly includes a transducer component, a water level fine-tuning component, a floating component, and a housing component.
[0010] The ultrasonic humidification component is suspended in the water tank by the balance of its own gravity and buoyancy. It adjusts itself according to changes in water level and directly atomizes the water in the tank, thus eliminating the need for the drain valve structure of traditional humidifiers.
[0011] The water tank serves as a liquid storage container with only a top opening, acting as both a liquid replenishment port and a mist outlet. Compared to other humidifiers, the elimination of the bottom liquid outlet and dispensing mechanism simplifies the humidifier's structure and reduces product costs.
[0012] The ultrasonic humidification component is directly installed inside the water tank and is used to atomize the liquid by performing work on it.
[0013] The outer casing has an umbrella-shaped structure, comprising an upper shell, a middle shell, and a lower shell. The middle shell is a rotating body with openings in its side walls to facilitate water flow. It has an overall "bucket" shape, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, with the upper circumference longer than the lower circumference. Its center of gravity is located in the lower middle part of the assembly, allowing it to maintain a fixed posture and float vertically within the water tank. The lower shell is fixed to the bottom of the middle shell, forming a closed cavity into which the transducer components are fixed.
[0014] The floating component is located at the ground end of the ultrasonic humidification unit to increase buoyancy. The water level fine-tuning component is placed in the central hole of the upper shell and floats freely up and down with changes in water volume, adaptively correcting its position to help maximize atomization efficiency.
[0015] The distance between the transducer component and the water surface is maintained between 35mm and 45mm, and the water level fine-tuning component has a height water level fine-tuning range of 0mm to 8mm.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the technical solution of this invention are as follows:
[0017] This invention provides a humidifier that, compared to negative pressure humidifiers, allows for top-filling of the humidifier, simplifying operation. The top-filling method also simplifies the humidifier's structure. Compared to top-filling humidifiers controlled by solenoid valves, it eliminates noise and significantly reduces costs.
[0018] The humidifier of this invention features an ultrasonic humidification component that allows for balanced floating. The humidification component automatically adjusts the distance between the transducer and the water surface by floating, maintaining it between 35mm and 45mm. The water level fine-tuning component allows for water level fine-tuning from 0mm to 8mm, thereby achieving the best atomization effect. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the present invention are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
[0023] Figure 1 This is an exploded view of the structure of an embodiment of the humidifier of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the ultrasonic humidification component of the humidifier of the present invention. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the ultrasonic humidification component of the humidifier of this invention. (See attached diagram.) Figure 1 As shown, the humidifier includes a main body 100, which includes a water tank 101 and an ultrasonic humidification component 200.
[0024] The ultrasonic humidification assembly 200 includes a transducer component 210, a water level fine-tuning component 220, a floating component 230, and a housing 240. The housing 240 has an overall umbrella-shaped structure, comprising an upper housing 241, a middle housing 242, and a lower housing 243. The middle housing 242 is shaped like a bucket, wider at the top than at the bottom, with the upper circumference longer than the lower circumference. The lower housing 243 is fixed to the bottom of the middle housing 242, forming a closed cavity (not shown). The transducer component 210 is fixed to the bottom of the middle housing 242 within the closed cavity formed by the lower housing 243 and is connected to a control module via a power cable. The water level fine-tuning component 220 is placed inside the central hole of the upper housing 241 and floats freely up and down with changes in water volume. The floating component 230 is installed within the cavity formed by the middle housing 242 and the upper housing 241, providing sufficient buoyancy for the ultrasonic humidification assembly 200.
[0025] The ultrasonic humidification component 200 is suspended in the water tank 101. Water in the water tank enters from the opening of the upper housing 241 and the openings around the middle housing 242 of the ultrasonic humidification component 200, and comes into contact with the upper surface of the contact transducer, triggering the transducer to work and atomize the water.
[0026] An ultrasonic humidification component 200 is disposed inside a water tank 101 and is used to atomize the liquid by performing work on it. In this embodiment, the ultrasonic humidification component 200 is a liquid vibrator (e.g., an oscillating plate).
[0027] The humidifying component 200 is located inside the water tank 101 and is not fixedly connected to the water tank 101. It utilizes a unique umbrella-shaped structure (such as...) Figure 1 As shown, the humidifier 101 is suspended in the water tank by the balance of its own weight and buoyancy, and can adjust itself according to changes in water level. The liquid in the water tank 101 is immersed in the upper surface of the contact transducer 210 through the upper part (e.g., the upper shell) and the surrounding parts (e.g., the middle shell) of the ultrasonic humidifier component 200. The transducer 210 performs work to atomize the water. At the same time, the water level fine-tuning component 220 floats freely up and down in the central hole of the upper shell 241 to adjust the water volume and optimize the atomization effect. Finally, the fan blows the water mist out from the opening at the top of the water tank 101. This eliminates the traditional water valve structure of humidifiers, completely eliminates the noise of water draining from the water tank, simplifies the structure of the top-fill humidifier, and reduces product costs.
[0028] The humidifier provided in this embodiment is a novel ultrasonic humidifier without a drain valve, completely eliminating drain noise. It also simplifies the structure of top-fill humidifiers, reduces product costs, and improves operational convenience. The elimination of solenoid valve control further eliminates noise and significantly reduces costs.
