Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0030] like Figures 1-5As shown, a detachable floating humidifier according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 100, an atomizing module 200, a first coil 230, and a control module 300. The housing 100 has a liquid storage chamber 120 and a mist outlet 140 communicating with the liquid storage chamber 120. The atomizing module 200 is located in the liquid storage chamber 120 and can float on the liquid stored in the liquid storage chamber 120 to atomize the liquid. The first coil 230 is disposed in the atomizing module 200 and is electrically connected to the atomizing module 200. The control module 300 is detachably connected to the housing 100 and is provided with a second coil 310. The control module 300 is coupled to the first coil 230 through the second coil 310 to transmit atomization frequency signals and supply power to the atomizing module 200.
[0031] The housing 100 can be barrel-shaped, and the mist outlet 140 is generally located at the top of the liquid storage chamber 120 or near the upper side wall.
[0032] The control module 300 includes a housing, within which is housed a control chip such as an MCU or CPU with signal processing and output functions. The housing also houses a power drive circuit and an inverter circuit. The inverter circuit can be a half-bridge or full-bridge inverter circuit composed of multiple semiconductor switching transistors. The control chip is connected to each semiconductor switching transistor to control their on / off states, thereby converting DC power into AC power and signals of the corresponding atomization frequency and outputting them to the second coil 310. The power drive circuit can include a rectifier circuit, a switching power supply circuit, and a power management circuit. The power drive circuit can be directly connected to AC power or connected to AC power via a power adapter. The rectifier circuit rectifies the AC power, and then the switching power supply circuit and power management circuit modulate a suitable current and voltage to power the control chip and output to the input of the inverter circuit. Alternatively, the floating humidifier can contain an energy storage battery, which powers the control chip and outputs electrical energy to the input of the inverter circuit.
[0033] The atomizing module 200 may include a floating platform and an atomizing element. The atomizing element may be a semiconductor atomizing plate or other components. The floating platform is made of low-density plastic or resin components. Both the floating platform and the atomizing element are lightweight and can float under the buoyancy of the liquid. The first coil 230 is electrically connected to the atomizing element and coupled to the second coil 310. The first coil 230 induces electricity and supplies power to the atomizing element and other electrical components on the atomizing module 200. It should be noted that the control module 300, through coupling the second coil 310 to the first coil 230 to transmit the atomization frequency signal and supply power to the atomizing module 200, can be understood as the first coil 230... The first coil 230 can be directly connected to the sensing element via a capacitor. The first coil 230 induces and generates an atomization frequency signal, which is applied to the atomizing plate of the sensing element. The induced atomization frequency signal and the frequency of the atomizing plate sensing element are compatible, thereby generating vibration to atomize the liquid. This eliminates the need for additional circuits and further reduces the weight of the atomization module 200. Of course, the atomization module 200 can also be equipped with a processing unit. The processing unit contains a processing chip and a rectifier circuit. The rectifier circuit rectifies the AC power induced by the first coil 230 and then supplies power to the processing unit. The processing unit then modulates AC power with a specific vibration frequency to power the atomizing element and drive it to operate.
[0034] This invention relates to a detachable floating humidifier. The liquid storage chamber 120 can hold the liquid to be atomized. The atomizing module 200 floats on the liquid due to buoyancy. The control module 300 outputs an atomization frequency signal and AC power to the second coil 310. Since the first coil 230 and the second coil 310 are wirelessly coupled, the first coil 230 generates electricity to drive the atomizing module 200 to atomize the liquid. Because the atomizing module 200 floats on the liquid, the atomized mist is not easily obstructed by the liquid and can pass through the space above the liquid to be output to the outside through the mist outlet 140, thus achieving a good atomization effect. Furthermore, when the user needs to replenish the liquid in the storage chamber 120, the housing 100 and the control module 300 can be disassembled and separated. The housing 100 can be extracted separately for liquid replenishment, preventing liquid from easily entering the control module 300. This design is convenient, reliable, and does not easily damage the electrical components of the control module 300.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the control module 300 is equipped with a fan assembly 400, the housing 100 is equipped with an air inlet 110 that communicates with the liquid storage chamber 120, and the air outlet 420 of the fan assembly 400 is connected to the air inlet 110.
[0036] The fan assembly 400 can drive the external airflow into the liquid storage chamber 120. Driven by the airflow, the mist generated by the atomizing module 200 can be output outward in an orderly manner from the mist outlet 140, thereby improving the humidification effect of the floating humidifier on the outside world.
[0037] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the fan assembly 400 is provided with a mounting protrusion 410, which can pass through the air inlet 110 and protrude from the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 120. The air outlet 420 is provided on the lower end face of the mounting protrusion 410 so that the air output by the fan assembly 400 can be delivered toward the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 120.
[0038] It should be noted that the fan assembly 400 and the control module 300 can share a housing or be set separately. In the embodiment where they share a housing, the mounting protrusion 410 is formed by protrusion from the outside of the housing. An air duct is provided inside the housing. The fan assembly 400 is set in the housing and located in the air duct. The air outlet 420 is connected to one end of the air duct. The air outlet 420 extends into the liquid storage chamber 120 through the mounting protrusion 410 and is set downward. The airflow is delivered along the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 120 toward the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 120, forming a backflow on the surface of the liquid. This drives the mist formed by the atomizing module 200 to be delivered upward. Finally, the mist is carried out from the mist outlet 140, which improves the humidification effect.
[0039] The housing 100 and the control module 300 can be connected in various detachable ways, for example, in some embodiments of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the floating humidification device also includes a first slide 510 and a first slider 520. One of the first slide 510 and the first slider 520 is disposed on the outer side wall of the housing 100. Correspondingly, the other of the first slide 510 and the first slider 520 is disposed on the control module 300. The first slider 520 can slide along the first slide 510 and the first slider 520 can disengage from one end of the first slide 510 to achieve a detachable connection between the control module 300 and the housing 100.
[0040] Specifically, there are two first sliders 520, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the control module 300, and there are also two second slide grooves 610, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the housing 100. The first sliders 520 are slidably disposed in the first slide grooves 510 in a one-to-one correspondence. When the control module 300 is installed with the housing 100, the first sliders 520 enter from one end of the first slide groove 510. The first sliders 520 are limited by the first slide groove 510 and can only slide along the first slide groove 510, thereby realizing the connection between the control module 300 and the housing 100. When disassembly is required, the first sliders 520 can slide out from one end of the first slide groove 510, thereby realizing the separation between the control module 300 and the housing 100.
[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting protrusion 410 and the air inlet 110 can be located at one end of the first slide groove 510. The air inlet 110 is an opening slot provided on the top of the housing 100. When the first slider 520 slides along the first slide groove 510 and the control module 300 is installed in place relative to the housing 100, the mounting protrusion 410 can abut against the lower inner wall of the air inlet 110 to limit the sliding position of the first slider 520 in the first slide groove 510. Under the action of gravity, the control module 300 will no longer move relative to the housing 100. In addition, The liquid storage chamber 120 has an upward opening, and the housing 100 is also provided with a cover 130. The mist outlet 140 is provided on the cover 130. The cover 130 is connected to the housing 100 to close the opening. The cover 130 can also open the opening. When the cover 130 is connected to the housing 100, the lower surface of the cover 130 can cooperate with the inner wall of the air inlet 110 to enclose the air inlet 110, while restricting the upward movement of the mounting protrusion 410, thereby achieving installation and fixation. This structure is simple and convenient to install and disassemble, and the user operation is smooth and easy.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module 300 and the housing 100 can also be connected by means of snap-fit structure, threaded structure, etc.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 5, the housing 100 and the atomizing module 200 are movably connected by a guide structure 600.
[0044] Under the buoyancy of the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 120, the atomizing module 200 can move up and down along the guide structure 600. The atomizing module 200 is not easy to tilt and can maintain good and stable contact with the liquid surface, thus improving the atomization effect.
[0045] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the guide structure 600 may include a second slide groove 610 and a second slider 620. One of the second slide groove 610 and the second slider 620 is disposed on the inner side wall of the housing 100. Correspondingly, the other of the second slide groove 610 and the second slider 620 is disposed on the atomizing module 200. The second slider 620 can slide along the second slide groove 610 under the action of liquid buoyancy of the atomizing module 200.
[0046] Specifically, the second slide groove 610 can be disposed on the inner side wall of the housing 100, and the second slider 620 can be disposed on the atomizing module 200; or, the second slide groove 610 can be disposed on the atomizing module 200, and the second slider 620 can be disposed on the inner side wall of the housing 100.
[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, the guide structure 600 may also be composed of a column and a limiting hole, etc.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the guide structure 600 includes a second slide groove 610 and a second slider 620. The second slide groove 610 is disposed on the inner side wall of the housing 100, and the second slider 620 is disposed on the atomizing module 200. The second slider 620 can slide along the second slide groove 610 under the action of liquid buoyancy of the atomizing module 200.
[0049] Specifically, the second slide groove 610 is vertically opened on the inner side wall of the housing 100. Both sides of the second slide groove 610 are provided with limiting grooves along the length of the slide groove. There are two second sliders 620, which are located on both sides of the atomizing module 200 respectively. Each second slider 620 is in the limiting groove on one side of the second slide groove 610 and slides along the limiting groove.
[0050] In the embodiment with the second chute 610, the mounting protrusion 410 can be located at one end of the second chute 610. The airflow outlet 420 of the fan assembly 400 is located on the lower end face of the mounting protrusion 410 so that the airflow output by the fan assembly 400 can be transported along the second chute 610 toward the bottom of the liquid storage chamber 120. At this time, the airflow output by the fan assembly 400 can flow along the second chute 610, flow orderly to the surface of the liquid, and then flow out from the slot in front of the second chute 610. This structure can use the second chute 610 to restrict the airflow, making the airflow more concentrated and providing sufficient wind power to carry the mist out from the mist outlet 140.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second coil 310 is disposed on the side of the housing 100 and is arranged along the height direction of the liquid storage cavity 120.
[0052] The atomizing module 200 floats on the surface of the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 120. As the liquid level in the liquid storage chamber 120 changes, the atomizing module 200 rises and falls in the liquid storage chamber 120. The second coil 310 is arranged along the height direction of the liquid storage chamber 120, which allows the first coil 230 to maintain a good coupling relationship with the second coil 310 during the rising and falling of the atomizing module 200, so as to achieve stable energy exchange.
[0053] Specifically, the second coil 310 can be spiral-shaped and extend to a certain length, and the second coil 310 can be placed vertically on the side of the housing 100; or, the control module 300 can be sleeved on the housing 100, and the second coil 310 can also be arranged around the outer periphery of the housing 100.
[0054] When the atomizing module 200 atomizes the liquid, a certain amount of water droplets will be generated near the atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200. When the liquid level is high, if the atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200 is directly opposite the mist outlet 140, water droplets may be sprayed out from the mist outlet 140, causing the table surface where the floating humidifier is placed to be wet, affecting the user experience.
[0055] Therefore, in some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the mist output direction of the atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200 is deviated from the direction of the mist outlet 140 relative to the atomizing module 200. This is equivalent to making the atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200 and the mist outlet 140 not directly opposite each other. Even if a certain amount of water splashes are generated near the atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200, the water splashes will only impact the inner wall of the housing 100, and the water splashes will not easily spray out from the mist outlet 140.
[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the mist outlet 140 is located at the top of the liquid storage chamber 120. The atomizing module 200 is provided with an installation end face 210 that is inclined relative to the horizontal plane. The installation end face 210 has an atomizing outlet 220. The opening direction of the atomizing outlet 220 is inclined relative to the vertical direction. The atomizing output end of the atomizing module 200 outputs mist through the atomizing outlet 220. It should be noted that the floating humidification device is generally placed on a horizontal plane, which is generally level with the liquid surface. The mist outlet 140 is usually located directly above the liquid storage chamber 120. The opening direction of the atomizing outlet 220 is inclined relative to the vertical direction. The inner wall of the atomizing outlet 220 guides the mist and water droplets. The opening direction of the atomizing outlet 220 is inclined relative to the vertical direction, so that water droplets are not easily sprayed out from the mist outlet 140 directly above.
[0057] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0058] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
