[0046] The present invention provides an air treatment module, which can be used alone or in combination with an air conditioner. Specifically, the air conditioner can be a wall-mounted unit, a floor-standing air conditioner indoor unit, or a mobile air conditioner. The air treatment module is mainly used to improve the quality of air, such as replacing indoor air, increasing air humidity, increasing air cleanliness, etc. The air treatment module can be a humidity module for adjusting air humidity, an auxiliary heating module for adjusting air temperature, a filter module and a water washing module for adjusting air cleanliness, etc.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 10As shown, the air processing module includes: a shell 10, the shell 10 includes a rear shell 11 and a panel 12 detachably spliced ​​with the rear shell 11; an induction switch 20, used to detect the connection status of the panel 12 and the rear shell 11; a humidifying device 30, arranged in the shell 10; the humidifying device includes a water tank 40 and a water outlet valve 50, the water tank 40 is provided with a water outlet hole 41, for supplying water to the humidifying device 30; the water outlet valve 50 is installed at the water outlet hole 41, and the water outlet valve has a blocking position for blocking the water outlet hole 41 and a conducting position for opening the water outlet hole 41; the panel is linked to the water outlet valve, so that when the panel 12 is detached from the rear shell 11, the water outlet valve 50 is in the blocking position.

[0048] In this embodiment, the housing 10 is provided in a cylindrical shape, which may be a circular cylindrical shape, a square cylindrical shape or other special-shaped cylindrical shape. The housing 10 may be provided with an air inlet, an air outlet and an air duct connecting the air inlet and the air outlet. The air outlet is connected to the indoor air, and the air inlet may be connected to the indoor air or to the outdoor air. There is no restriction here, as long as the air can enter the air duct through the air inlet and flow out through the air outlet after being treated. A fan may be provided in the air duct to drive the air flow from the air inlet to the air outlet. An air treatment component may be provided in the air duct, and the air treatment component is located on the flow path of the air flow to improve the air quality, such as humidification, dust removal, formaldehyde removal, sterilization, deodorization, disinfection, etc.; wherein, the air is humidified by the humidifying device 30 to increase the air humidity. The specific structure and specific humidification method of the humidifying device 30 are not limited, and may be ultrasonic humidification, thermal evaporation humidification or wet film 32 humidification. It can be understood that no matter which humidification method is used, the principle is to convert water into water vapor or water mist to increase the air humidity. Therefore, the humidification device 30 needs to be supplemented with water as a raw material during operation to continue to operate effectively. The water tank 40 is used to store water for timely water replenishment during the operation of the humidification device 30; of course, the water storage capacity of the water tank 40 is limited. When the water in the water tank 40 is used up, the user needs to manually replenish the water in the water tank 40.

[0049] The panel 12 and the rear shell 11 are assembled and enclosed to form an air duct. The humidifying device 30 and the water tank 40 are both installed in the air duct. When the user adds water to the water tank 40, the panel 12 needs to be removed first to expose the water replenishment port 42 of the water tank 40. It should be noted that the water tank 40 does not replenish water to the humidifying device 30 all the time, but only replenishes water to the humidifying device 30 when the water volume of the humidifying device 30 is lower than the preset value. The timing of replenishing water to the water tank 40 can be controlled by the water outlet valve 50, or by the principle of the siphon effect, which is not limited here; however, in the process of adding water to the water tank 40, in order to ensure that the water pressure change of the water tank 40 will not affect the water replenishment process, it is necessary to actively cut off the connection between the water tank 40 and the humidifying device 30 through the water outlet valve 50 to avoid water leakage of the humidifying device 30. That is to say, before adding water to the water tank 40, the water outlet valve 50 needs to close the water outlet hole 41.

[0050] The air treatment module also includes a sensor switch 20, and the panel 12 is linked to the water outlet valve 50 through the sensor switch 20; the panel 12 triggers the sensor switch 20 when it is detached from the rear shell 11, so that the sensor switch 20 triggers the water outlet valve 50 to move to the blocking position. The sensor switch 20 can be a touch switch or an infrared switch, and there is no limitation here, as long as it can detect the connection state of the panel 12 and the rear shell 11. After the panel 12 is detached from the rear shell 11, the sensor switch 20 will be triggered, and the sensor switch 20 will trigger the water outlet valve 50, so that the water outlet valve 50 will close the water outlet hole to cut off the connection between the water tank 40 and the humidification device 30, so that the user can directly add water after detaching the panel 12, which improves the convenience of the water adding process. The induction switch 20 does not limit the triggering method of the water outlet valve 50, which can be directly triggered or indirectly triggered; for example, the water outlet valve 50 is set as a solenoid valve and is electrically connected to the induction switch 20. When the induction switch 20 is triggered by the panel 12, an electrical signal is generated and transmitted to the solenoid valve to directly drive the solenoid valve.

[0051] The water outlet valve 50 includes a valve housing 51 and a valve core 52 movably disposed in the valve housing 51, and the air treatment module also includes a driving device 60 linked to the panel 12. The water outlet valve 50 is automatically controlled by the driving device 60, and the driving device 60 is electrically connected to the sensor switch 20 to determine the driving timing through the sensor switch 20. After the panel 12 is detached from the rear housing 11, the sensor switch 20 is triggered, and the sensor switch 20 triggers the driving device 60, so that the driving device 60 drives the valve core 52 of the control valve to close the water outlet hole 41, so as to cut off the connection between the water tank 40 and the humidifying device 30. In actual application, the panel 12 is linked with the water outlet valve 50 so that when the panel 12 is connected to the rear shell 11, the water outlet valve 50 is in the conduction position; that is, the user will install the panel 12 back after adding water, and the sensing switch 20 can be set to be triggered after the panel 12 is installed in place, and trigger the driving device 60 to drive the valve core 52 to move to open the water outlet 41, so that after the water adding is completed, the water tank 40 and the humidifying device 30 can automatically restore the connection state without the need for manual operation by the user, further improving the convenience of the water adding process.

[0052] The air processing module of the present invention links the assembly and disassembly state of the panel 12 with the unblocking state of the water outlet hole 41 of the water tank 40 through the induction switch 20, the water outlet valve 50 and the driving device 60. Therefore, when the panel 12 is detached from the rear shell 11, the driving device 60 drives the valve core 52 to move to block the water outlet hole 41, so that the water tank 40 stops replenishing water to the humidifying device 30. Therefore, the user can add water to the water tank 40 after removing the panel 12 to expose the water tank 40, without manually cutting off the connection between the water tank 40 and the humidifying device 30, thereby improving the convenience of the water adding process.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the induction switch 20 is set as a magnetically controlled switch, and the induction switch 20 includes a magnet and a reed switch. The reed switch is arranged on the front side of the rear shell 11 and is linked with the water outlet valve, and the magnet is arranged on the rear side of the panel 12. In this embodiment, the magnetically controlled switch can be composed of a permanent magnet and a reed switch. The reed switch is installed on the rear shell 11, and the permanent magnet is installed on the panel 12. The reed switch is electrically connected to the drive device 60. When the panel 12 is detached from the rear shell 11, that is, when the permanent magnet is away from the reed switch, the change in the magnetic field will form an electrical signal to trigger the drive device 60 to drive the valve core 52 to move; when the panel 12 is reinstalled on the rear shell 11, the permanent magnet approaches the reed switch, and the change in the magnetic field will trigger the drive device 60 again to drive the valve core 52 to move in the opposite direction. Setting the induction switch 20 as a magnetically controlled switch can make the detection of the connection state of the panel 12 and the rear shell 11 more accurate, and the triggering timing of the drive device 60 is also more timely.

[0054] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the water tank 40 is provided with a water replenishment port 42, and the air treatment module further includes a box cover 43 which is detachably covered on the water replenishment port 42, and the water replenishment port 42 can be exposed when the panel 12 is removed from the shell 10. In this embodiment, after the user removes the panel 12, water is added to the water tank 40 through the water replenishment port 42, so it is necessary to remove the box cover 43 first, and the box cover 43 can be screwed to the water replenishment port 42 to facilitate user disassembly and assembly. Specifically, the air treatment module further includes a first locking assembly 70 for locking or unlocking the box cover 43. The first locking assembly 70 is used to lock or unlock the box cover 43. When the box cover 43 is locked, it cannot be opened directly. It is necessary to first control the first locking assembly 70 to unlock the box cover 43. The first locking assembly 70 can be unlocked manually or automatically without limitation. The purpose of setting the first locking assembly 70 is to extend the time when the box cover 43 is opened, that is, the time of adding water, to ensure that the valve core 52 has enough time to move to close the water outlet 41 before adding water, and further ensure that the humidification device 30 will not leak during the water adding process.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown, the first locking assembly 70 includes a fixed block 71 installed on the water replenishment port 42, and a slider 72 slidably matched with the fixed block 71, and the slider 72 can move in the direction of abutting or avoiding the box cover 43. In this embodiment, the fixed block 71 is located on the inner peripheral side of the water replenishment port 42 and fixed to the water tank 40, and the box cover 43 is provided with a clearance hole. The slider 72 protrudes from the clearance hole and can move along the radial direction of the water replenishment port 42. It can slide and move to abut against the box cover 43, thereby limiting the movement of the box cover 43, and can also move to avoid the box cover 43, so that the box cover 43 can be effectively detached. In the locked state, the slider 72 remains abutting against the box cover 43, and the user needs to manually move the slider 72 to avoid the box cover 43 to unlock the box cover 43. Since the manual unlocking process of the user takes a certain amount of time, the valve core 52 can use this time to move to a position that effectively closes the water outlet 41 to ensure that the water outlet 41 has been effectively closed before the box cover 43 is opened. Of course, after the water is added, the user needs to manually move the slider 72 to the locked state while replacing the box cover 43.

[0056] The air treatment module further includes a feedback switch for detecting the on / off state of the water outlet 41; the first locking assembly 70 is set as an electrical device and is electrically connected to the feedback switch; the feedback switch is triggered when the water outlet 41 is in the on state, so that the feedback switch triggers the first locking assembly 70 to lock the box cover 43; the feedback switch is triggered when the water outlet 41 is in the blocked state, so that the feedback switch triggers the first locking assembly 70 to unlock the box cover 43. In this embodiment, the specific form and detection principle of the feedback switch are not specifically limited, and it only needs to be effectively triggered to generate an electrical signal when the water outlet 41 is closed. The specific structure of the first locking assembly 70 is not limited, and it only needs to be able to be linked with the feedback switch to unlock the box cover 43 in time when receiving the trigger signal of the feedback switch. Linking the unlocking action of the box cover 43 with the closed state of the water outlet 41 can ensure that the water outlet 41 is effectively closed before the box cover 43 is opened, and can also reduce the manual operation of the user. Of course, after the water is added, the water outlet 41 will be turned on, and the feedback switch will trigger the first locking assembly 70 again to lock the box cover 43. In combination with the above embodiment in which the panel 12 is connected to the rear shell 11 to trigger the water outlet valve 50 to open the water outlet 41, after the user reinstalls the panel 12, the sensor switch 20 will trigger the driving device 60 to drive the valve core 52 to open the water outlet 41. After the water outlet 41 is opened, the feedback switch will trigger the first locking assembly 70 to lock the box cover 43 to form a linkage reaction.

[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, the first locking assembly 70 includes an electromagnetic member 73, a magnetic member 74, and an elastic member 75 connecting the electromagnetic member 73 and the magnetic member 74. The magnetic member 74 can move in the direction of abutting against or away from the box cover 43, and the electromagnetic member 73 is electrically connected to the feedback switch. In this embodiment, the first locking assembly 70 is located on one side of the box cover 43 in the radial direction, and the electromagnetic member 73 is fixed to the water tank 40. When the electromagnetic member 73 is energized, it will generate magnetic force to attract the magnetic member 74. The elastic member 75 can be set as a compression spring. One end of the magnetic member 74 is connected to the elastic member 75, and the other end faces the box cover 43. The magnetic member 74 will move between the box cover 43 and the electromagnetic member 73 under the action of the magnetic force. When the magnetic member 74 abuts against the box cover 43, the box cover 43 is locked, and when the magnetic member 74 is away from the box cover 43, the box cover 43 is unlocked. When the electromagnetic member 73 attracts the magnetic member 74, it compresses the elastic member 75 so that the elastic member 75 has elastic potential energy. When the electromagnetic member 73 is powered off and loses its magnetism, the magnetic force between the magnetic member 74 and the electromagnetic member 73 disappears. At this time, the elastic member 75 releases its elastic potential energy to push the magnetic member 74 against the box cover 43 to lock the box cover 43. When the water outlet valve 50 closes the water outlet hole 41, the feedback switch generates an electrical signal to energize the electromagnetic member 73 to attract the magnetic member 74; when the water outlet valve 50 opens the water outlet hole 41, the feedback switch also de-energizes the electromagnetic member 73 to release the magnetic member 74.

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, the water tank 40 and the rear shell 11 can be pulled together, and the air processing module also includes a second locking component 80 provided on the rear shell 11, which is used to lock or unlock the water tank 40. In this embodiment, a water replenishment port 42 is opened on the top side of the water tank 40, and the water tank 40 and other components are stacked, so the water tank 40 needs to be pulled out to expose the water replenishment port 42. The water tank 40 cannot be pulled out normally when it is locked, and can only be effectively pulled out when it is unlocked. The purpose of locking the water tank 40 is also to extend the time when the tank cover 43 is opened, so as to ensure that the valve core 52 has enough time to move to close the water outlet 41 before adding water.

[0059] The second locking assembly 80 is set as an electrical device, and the air processing module also includes a feedback switch for detecting the on / off state of the water outlet 41, and the second locking assembly 80 is electrically connected to the feedback switch; when the water outlet 41 is in the on state, the feedback switch is triggered, so that the feedback switch triggers the second locking assembly 80 to lock the water tank 40; when the water outlet 41 is in the blocked state, the feedback switch is triggered, so that the feedback switch triggers the second locking assembly 80 to unlock the water tank 40. In this embodiment, the specific form and detection principle of the feedback switch are not specifically limited, and it only needs to be able to be effectively triggered to generate an electrical signal when the water outlet 41 is closed. The specific structure of the second locking assembly 80 is not limited, and it only needs to be able to be linked with the feedback switch to unlock the water tank 40 in time when receiving the trigger signal of the feedback switch. Linking the unlocking action of the water tank 40 with the closed state of the water outlet 41 can ensure that the water outlet 41 is effectively closed before the water tank 40 is opened, and can also reduce the manual operation of the user. Of course, after the water is added, the water outlet 41 will be turned on, and the feedback switch will trigger the second locking assembly 80 again to lock the water tank 40. In combination with the above embodiment in which the panel 12 is connected to the rear shell 11 to trigger the water outlet valve 50 to open the water outlet 41, after the user reinstalls the panel 12, the sensor switch 20 will trigger the driving device 60 to drive the valve core 52 to open the water outlet 41. After the water outlet 41 is opened, the feedback switch will trigger the second locking assembly 80 to lock the water tank 40 to form a linkage reaction.

[0060] like Figure 6As shown, the second locking assembly 80 includes a fixed shell 81, an electromagnetic block 82 and a magnetic block 83. The electromagnetic block 82 is arranged on the fixed shell 81. The magnetic block 83 is slidably matched with the fixed shell 81. The sliding direction of the magnetic block 83 is perpendicular to the pulling direction of the water tank 40. The water tank 40 is provided with a locking groove 44 corresponding to the magnetic block 83. The electromagnetic block 82 is electrically connected to the feedback switch to energize and fix the magnetic block 83 or to disconnect and release the magnetic block 83. In this embodiment, when the water outlet valve 50 does not close the water outlet hole 41, the magnetic block 83 is embedded in the locking groove 44 to prevent the movement of the water tank 40. At this time, the electromagnetic block 82 is energized to fix the magnetic block 83, that is, the user cannot move the magnetic block 83 to unlock the water tank 40. After the water outlet valve 50 closes the water outlet hole 41, the electromagnetic block 82 loses its magnetic force and the magnetic block 83 is released. At this time, the magnetic block 83 is still embedded in the locking groove 44, and the user needs to manually move the magnetic block 83 to unlock the water tank 40. Of course, after the water is added, the user still needs to push the water tank 40 into the rear shell 11 and manually lock the water tank 40. In this way, after the water outlet valve 50 opens the water outlet hole 41, the electromagnetic block 82 is energized to attract the magnetic block 83, and the water tank 40 can be locked.

[0061] like Figure 7 As shown, the humidifying device 30 includes a water tank 31 and a wet film 32 arranged in the water tank 31, and the water outlet 41 is connected to the water tank 31. In this embodiment, the wet film 32 is made of plant fiber or glass fiber with special chemical raw materials added, including organic wet film 32, inorganic wet film 32, aluminum alloy mesh wet film 32, stainless steel punctured wet film 32, ceramic wet film 32, etc., and has good water absorption and evaporation. After the water is absorbed by the wet film 32, a uniform water film is formed. When dry air passes through the wet film 32 material, the water molecules fully absorb the heat in the air and vaporize and evaporate, so that the humidity of the air increases to form humid air. The water tank 31 supports the wet film 32. After the bottom of the wet film 32 contacts the water, the water can spread upward under the adsorption force to be distributed to the entire wet film 32. Therefore, the water tank 40 only needs to replenish water to the water tank 31.

[0062] like Figures 8 to 10As shown, the water outlet 41 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 40, a flow gap 53 is formed between the valve core 52 and the valve housing 51, and the flow gap 53 extends along the circumference of the valve core 52. A through hole 311 opposite to the valve core 52 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 31, and the drive shaft of the drive device 60 is connected to the valve core 52 through the through hole 311. In this embodiment, the water tank 40 is installed above the water tank 31, so that water can flow to the water tank 31 under the action of gravity to simplify the water replenishment method. The water outlet valve 50 can be installed outside the water tank 40, wherein the valve housing 51 is connected to the water outlet 41, and a water retaining ring is convexly provided on the inner peripheral wall of the valve housing 51. The valve core 52 can be moved to cooperate with the water retaining ring to cut off the communication between the water outlet 41 and the flow gap 53, that is, to close the water outlet 41; it can also be moved to make the water outlet 41 communicate with the flow gap 53, that is, to open the water outlet 41. The flow gap 53 extends along the circumference of the through hole 311, so that the water flowing along the flow gap 53 does not flow directly to the through hole 311, but flows into the water tank 31. The driving shaft of the driving device 60 can be directly extended into the through hole 311 and connected to the valve core 52, or can be indirectly connected to the valve core 52 through other transmission parts, so that the driving device 60 can be installed outside the water tank 31 to reduce the space occupied in the water tank 31, and at the same time, it can prevent water from damaging the driving device 60.

[0063] like Fig.10 As shown, the circumference of the through hole 311 extends upward to form an inner water retaining cylinder 312, and the bottom of the valve core 52 forms an outer water retaining cylinder 521, and the outer water retaining cylinder 521 is arranged around the circumference of the inner water retaining cylinder 312. In this embodiment, it should be noted that the valve core 52 is not cylindrical as a whole, but is cylindrical with an open bottom facing downward. The outer water retaining cylinder 521 formed by the valve core 52 covers the inner water retaining cylinder 312 formed at the edge of the through hole 311, so that water flowing along the flow gap 53 to the water tank 31 will not flow out of the through hole 311. Figure 8 As shown, the air treatment module further includes a transmission rod 90 passing through the through hole 311, one end of the transmission rod 90 is connected to the valve core 52, and the other end is connected to the driving shaft of the driving device 60. In this embodiment, the driving device 60 is configured as a motor, and the driving rod is used to convert the rotational motion of the motor driving shaft into the up and down motion of the valve core 52, so as to simplify the specific form and installation method of the driving device 60.

[0064] like Figure 8 and 10As shown, the bottom of the valve housing 51 abuts against the bottom of the water tank 31, and a flow gap 511 communicating with the flow gap 53 is provided at the bottom of the valve housing 51, and the height of the flow gap 511 does not exceed the depth of the water tank 31. In this embodiment, the bottom of the valve housing 51 seals against the bottom of the water tank 31, and the water flowing to the bottom of the valve housing 51 along the flow gap 53 can only flow to the water tank 31 from the flow gap 511. Since the water in the water tank 40 flows to the water tank 31 only by gravity, when the water level in the water tank 31 rises to be higher than the flow gap 511, the water will stop flowing to the water tank 31 under the balance of water pressure and atmospheric pressure. Therefore, as long as the height of the flow gap 511 is controlled not to exceed the depth of the water tank 31, it can be ensured that during the water replenishment process, it can be ensured that there is water in the water tank 31 and that the water will not overflow from the water tank 31, so as to form automatic control of the water replenishment process and improve convenience. Of course, in order to prevent the liquid equilibrium state in the water tank 40 from being broken by influencing factors, causing the liquid level in the water tank 31 to continue to rise, an overflow port 313 is also provided on the side wall of the water tank 31. The overflow port 313 can be connected to the outside of the shell 10 or to the drainage structure of the air handling module through a pipeline, so that water exceeding the capacity of the water tank 31 can be discharged through the overflow port 313 to avoid overflow of the entire water tank 31.
