Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, for example to a fragrance module and a fragrance diffuser. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, air conditioning is becoming increasingly common in daily life and work, and people's demands for air conditioning are also rising. For example, the requirements for indoor air quality are becoming more stringent. Currently, this is often achieved by using various aromatherapy materials to improve indoor air quality. For instance, a structure containing a specific aromatherapy material can be placed on the filter of the indoor unit. When air enters the air conditioner through the filter, the fragrance emitted by the aromatherapy material is carried into the air conditioner, where the temperature is adjusted before entering the indoor space, thus achieving the purpose of adjusting the indoor air quality. However, the above structure usually only includes aromatherapy material with one fragrance, resulting in a relatively limited range of scents. If the fragrance needs to be changed, the user needs to remove the aromatherapy material from the structure and replace it with a different fragrance, which is rather inconvenient.

[0003] In related technologies, an aromatherapy component and an air conditioner having the same are disclosed. The aromatherapy component includes a mounting part and an aromatherapy module. The mounting part includes a housing and a cover, which form a receiving cavity. The receiving cavity has at least one sub-receiving cavity, and at least one of the aromatherapy modules is disposed in the sub-receiving cavity. A communicating structure is formed on the cover so that the fragrance emitted by the aromatherapy module enters a target space through the communicating structure. Furthermore, the housing and the cover are movable relative to each other, and this movement allows the communicating structure to be aligned with different sub-receiving cavities or different positions of the sub-receiving cavities, thereby allowing the fragrance emitted by the aromatherapy module corresponding to the communicating structure to enter the target space.

[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0005] In related technologies, aromatherapy products can easily come into contact with the atomizer motherboard, leading to corrosion or short circuits and burnout of the motherboard, thus compromising safety and stability.

[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0041] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0042] Combination Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a fragrance module 2, which includes a fragrance box 24 and a bottle 25. The fragrance box 24 includes a partition 241, which divides the fragrance box 24 into an independent electronic control chamber 242 and a fragrance chamber 243. An atomizer main board 28 is disposed in the electronic control chamber 242, and an atomizer 27 is disposed in the fragrance chamber 243. The atomizer main board 28 is connected to the atomizer 27. The bottle 25 contains fragrance and is fixedly connected to the fragrance box 24. The fragrance core 26 in the bottle 25 is inserted into the fragrance chamber 243 and contacts the atomizer 27, so that the atomizer 27 atomizes the fragrance and mixes it with the airflow flowing through the fragrance chamber 243.

[0043] Specifically, the fragrance box 24 is divided into two independent chambers by a partition 241: an electronic control chamber 242 and a fragrance chamber 243. The atomizer main board 28 in the electronic control chamber 242 is electrically connected to the atomizer 27 in the fragrance chamber 243, and the operation and shutdown of the atomizer 27 can be controlled through the atomizer main board 28.

[0044] The bottle 25 is used to hold a specific fragrance; the fragrance core 26 includes a first end and a second end, the first end extending into the bottle 25 and the second end located in the fragrance cavity 243; two or more fragrance modules 2 with different scents are placed in multiple receiving cavities 12. One end of the fragrance core 26 is inserted into the fragrance liquid inside the bottle 25, and the other end extends into the fragrance cavity 243. The fragrance core 26 uses a siphon effect to guide the fragrance upward and release it into the fragrance cavity 243. The atomizer 27 in the fragrance cavity 243 atomizes the fragrance essential oil, and the atomized fragrance is transported into the room by the airflow.

[0045] This application improves the safety of the fragrance module 2 by making the electronic control cavity 242 and the fragrance cavity 243 independent of each other, thereby avoiding the problem of corrosion or conductivity caused by the fragrance coming into contact with the atomizer main board 28 in the electronic control cavity 242.

[0046] Optionally, the atomizer 27 is fixed on the partition 241. The atomizer 27 and the atomizer mainboard 28 are located on opposite sides of the partition 241, and the atomizer 27 is connected to the atomizer mainboard 28 via wiring.

[0047] Optionally, the fragrance box 24 includes a box body 245 and a lid 246. A partition 241 is located inside the box body 245; the lid 246 closes onto the box body 245, and the partition 241, box body 245, and lid 246 together enclose the electronic control cavity 242 and the fragrance cavity 243; the lid 246 has an air inlet 22 for introducing airflow into the fragrance cavity 243, and the box body 245 has a fragrance outlet 21 for venting the fragrance airflow from the fragrance cavity 243.

[0048] External airflow enters the fragrance chamber 243 through the air inlet 22. The atomized fragrance in the fragrance chamber 243 mixes with the airflow, and the mixed airflow is discharged through the fragrance outlet 21.

[0049] Optionally, the housing 245 and the cover 246 are detachably connected. This facilitates the maintenance and repair of the atomizer 27.

[0050] Optionally, the fragrance box 24 also includes a ring 247 located at the bottom of the box body 245. The inner cylindrical surface of the ring 247 is provided with an internal thread for interlocking with the bottle mouth thread of the bottle body 25.

[0051] The ring 247 allows the bottle 25 to be detachably mounted on the box 245. When the amount of fragrance essential oil in the bottle 25 is insufficient, it is easy to remove the bottle 25 to add fragrance essential oil or replace it with a bottle 25 of a different scent.

[0052] Optionally, the fragrance module 2 also includes an outlet nozzle 248, which is fixed in an inverted cone shape to the side of the fragrance opening 21 to allow for an interference fit with the hose 3. It is understood that the outlet nozzle 248 can be directly fixed to the fragrance opening 21, or it can be fixed to the through hole on the base 1 that connects to the fragrance opening 21; no specific limitation is made here.

[0053] The inverted cone-shaped outlet nozzle 248 makes it easier to install the hose 3. The hose 3 and the outlet nozzle 248 are interference-fitted, which can achieve better sealing and avoid the problem of leakage of atomized fragrance in the airflow at the connection.

[0054] This disclosure provides a fragrance diffuser, which includes the aforementioned fragrance module 2. It is understood that one or more fragrance modules 2 can be installed within the fragrance diffuser, depending on the user's actual needs. Multiple fragrance modules 2 can achieve the mixing of fragrance airflows with various different scents.

[0055] Each fragrance module 2 of the fragrance diffuser in this application is equipped with an atomizer mainboard 28, allowing for independent control and thus improving the operational stability of the fragrance diffuser. If one fragrance module 2 malfunctions, it will not affect the normal operation of the other fragrance modules 2. Furthermore, the electronic control chamber 242 and fragrance chamber 243 of each fragrance module 2 are independent of each other, thus avoiding corrosion or electrical conductivity issues caused by contact between the fragrance and the atomizer mainboard 28 within the electronic control chamber 242, thereby improving the safety of the fragrance diffuser.

[0056] Optionally, the fragrance diffuser also includes a base 1, which includes multiple air supply chambers 11 and multiple receiving chambers 12. Adjacent air supply chambers 11 are independent of each other, and each air supply chamber 11 is equipped with a fan 4. Multiple fragrance modules 2 are fixed in the multiple receiving chambers 12 one by one, and the air inlets 22 of the fragrance modules 2 are connected to the air supply chambers 11 one by one. During the operation of one or more fans 4, one or more streams of air flow independently through the corresponding air supply chambers 11 and air inlets 22, and then enter the corresponding fragrance chambers 243, thereby forming one or more atomized fragrance airflows with a specific fragrance, which flow out through one or more corresponding fragrance outlets 21, and then are delivered to the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0057] Specifically, each of the multiple air supply chambers 11 corresponds to a multiple receiving chamber 12. Each air supply chamber 11 is equipped with a fan 4. The multiple receiving chambers 12 can hold one or more fragrance modules 2, and the number of fragrance modules 2 can be increased or decreased as needed. The fragrances of the multiple fragrance modules 2 placed on the base 1 can be the same or different.

[0058] As an example, the base 1 holds multiple fragrance modules 2 with different scents.

[0059] When one of the fans 4 is running, under negative pressure, the airflow enters the air supply cavity 11 where the fan 4 is located, and passes through the fragrance cavity 243 corresponding to the air supply cavity 11. The atomized fragrance generated by the fragrance module 2 mixes with the airflow in the fragrance cavity 243. The fragrance airflow containing a specific scent flows out through the fragrance outlet 21 and is sent to the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0060] Understandably, turning on the fan 4 in the air delivery chamber 11 corresponding to the selected fragrance module 2 can produce a pure, single fragrance. In the fragrance diffuser of this application, each fragrance module 2 has an independent fan 4, air delivery chamber 11, fragrance chamber 243, and fragrance mouth 21, so there will be no problem of fragrance confusion.

[0061] When three of the fans 4 are running, under the negative pressure, the three airflows enter the three relatively independent air supply chambers 11 respectively.

[0062] Understandably, different fragrance modules 2 can be placed on the base 1, or two or more fragrance modules 2 with the same fragrance can be placed on it, depending on personal preference. Multiple fragrance modules 2 with the same fragrance operating simultaneously can increase the fragrance concentration and meet the needs of different space sizes.

[0063] Understandably, multiple receiving cavities 12 can be installed using only one or two of them, or all of them can be used, depending on the specific needs.

[0064] Optionally, the base 1 includes a base 13 and a support portion 14. The base 13 has multiple side-opening grooves for engaging the fragrance module 2; the support portion 14 is integrally formed with the base 13 and includes multiple air supply chambers 11 that correspond one-to-one with the grooves. Each air supply chamber 11 includes an air outlet 141, and the multiple air outlets 141 correspond one-to-one with the multiple grooves.

[0065] Specifically, the base 13 has multiple side-opening grooves arranged in a straight line. Each fragrance module 2 is snapped into one of these grooves. The air outlets 141 of the multiple air chambers 11 of the supporting part 14 correspond one-to-one with the fragrance modules 2. Each air outlet 141 of the air chamber 11 is connected to the air inlet 22 of the fragrance module 2. This reduces wind loss and noise, and prevents the scents from mixing in the different fragrance chambers 243.

[0066] Optionally, the fragrance diffuser also includes a fan cover 15, which covers the support part 14. The fan cover 15 has multiple air inlets 151, which are connected to multiple air delivery chambers 11 in a corresponding manner.

[0067] The fan cover 15 and the support part 14 together enclose the air supply cavity 11. Multiple fans 4 are correspondingly arranged in multiple air supply cavities 11, so that the airflow of each fragrance module 2 can be independently controlled.

[0068] Optionally, the atomizer 27 includes an ultrasonic atomizer 27.

[0069] Ultrasonic liquid atomization involves the generation of capillary gravity waves in a liquid layer on a vibrating surface under ultrasonic vibration. The instability of the liquid surface waves causes atomization. Specifically, when an ultrasonic wave of a certain intensity passes through the liquid and points towards the gas-liquid interface, the ultrasonic wave forms a surface tension wave at this interface. Under the action of a force perpendicular to the surface tension wave, once the amplitude of the vibrating surface reaches a certain value, droplets fly off from the wave crest, forming an atomized liquid.

[0070] The atomized fragrance can be delivered to the indoor unit of the air conditioner along with the airflow, avoiding fragrance dripping and improving the diffusion and longevity of the indoor fragrance.

[0071] Optionally, the fragrance diffuser also includes a control module configured to adjust the speed of one or more fans 4 and the opening and closing of one or more atomizers 27 according to user preferences, thereby adjusting the fragrance concentration ratio and the scent of the fragrance combination.

[0072] As an example, the base 1 of the fragrance diffuser has three air chambers 11 and three receiving chambers 12. Each of the three air chambers 11 contains a fan 4, and each of the three receiving chambers 12 can accommodate three different fragrance modules 2. The three fragrance modules 2 are pushed into the base 1 and secured. Depending on the actual usage requirements, the control module controls the start and stop of the three fans 4 and the atomizers 27 of the three fragrance modules 2, thereby controlling the fragrance flavor. This allows for the use of a single fan 4, a combination of two fans 4, and all three fans 4 to be activated, thus creating multiple flavors. The number of fragrances is equal to the factorial of the number of fragrance modules 2 installed in the receiving chambers 12. For example, three fragrance modules 2 can produce seven flavors.

[0073] It is understandable that the atomizers 27 and corresponding fans 4 of different fragrance modules can be turned on and off sequentially.

[0074] As an example, the base 1 of the fragrance diffuser is equipped with three fragrance modules 2, namely, a first fragrance module 2, a second fragrance module 2, and a third fragrance module 2. The fragrance ingredient in the bottle 25 of the first fragrance module 2 is ingredient A, the fragrance ingredient in the bottle 25 of the second fragrance module 2 is ingredient B, and the fragrance ingredient in the bottle 25 of the third fragrance module 2 is ingredient C. The evaporation rates of the fragrance ingredients are: A>B>C. The different evaporation rates of the fragrance ingredients in the three bottles 25 create a layered fragrance over time. Ingredient A evaporates quickly, serving as the top note, and is most prominent when the airflow from the air conditioner's indoor unit first begins. Ingredient B serves as the middle note, and ingredient C as the base note, thus allowing the fragrance to develop more layers over time.

[0075] In related technologies, confusion can easily occur during fragrance switching or release, resulting in mixed scents that are not desired by the user, thus affecting the experience. The fragrance modules 2 of the fragrance diffuser in this application are independent of each other. By adjusting and selecting the fragrance scents and characteristics of multiple fragrance modules 2 and the operating time of the fan 4, a more layered fragrance can be provided to the user, achieving a three-tone olfactory experience.

[0076] Optionally, the groove includes a first slot 121 and a second slot 122. The bottle body 25 is located within the first slot 121; the second slot 122 is located above the first slot 121, and the width of the second slot 122 is greater than the width of the first slot 121. The fragrance box 24 is located within the second slot 122; wherein, an air outlet is provided on the side of the first slot 121, and the fragrance opening 21 is connected to the air outlet.

[0077] The second slot 122 is used to fix the fragrance box 24 within the slot 122. The bottle 25 is fixedly connected to the fragrance box 24. By locking the fragrance box 24, the bottle 25 is fixedly positioned to prevent it from tipping over.

[0078] The bottle body 25 uses a standard part of a commonly available size, with a universal opening diameter, thus improving the versatility of the fragrance diffuser. The bottle body 25 has external threads at its opening, while the fragrance box 24 has internal threads. This threaded assembly achieves interlocking between the bottle body 25 and the fragrance box 24, and facilitates easy disassembly. A leak-proof rubber ring is provided at the corresponding interface of the bottle body 25 to prevent fragrance liquid leakage.

[0079] Optionally, the fragrance diffuser also includes a valve body located on the hose 3, which controls the flow of one or more fragrance chambers 243 to the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0080] Specifically, each cavity 12 of the base 1 is provided with an outlet 248. Each outlet 248 is connected to the indoor unit of the air conditioner through a hose 3 and a valve body. By controlling the opening of the valve body, the flow rate of different fragrances can be adjusted.

[0081] As an example, the fragrance diffuser includes multiple hoses 3 connected to an indoor air conditioning unit. Each hose 3 is equipped with a one-way valve or an expansion valve. By controlling the valve body at each hose 3, the fragrance airflow of each path can be controlled, thereby enabling a single pure fragrance or multiple mixed fragrances to enter the indoor air conditioning unit.

[0082] As another example, the fragrance diffuser includes multiple hoses 3 and a main pipe. One end of each hose 3 is connected to a corresponding fragrance module 2, and the other end of each hose 3 is connected to the main pipe via a multi-way valve. The main pipe is connected to the indoor unit of the air conditioner. Thus, by controlling the adjustment of the multi-way valve, the fragrance of different fragrance modules 2 can be switched. For example, the hoses 3 of three fragrance modules 2 can be connected to the main pipe of the indoor unit of the air conditioner via a four-way valve.

[0083] The fragrance diffuser of this application is used in an air conditioner, with its base 1 fixed to the indoor unit of the air conditioner. This application combines the fragrance diffuser with the indoor unit of the air conditioner, which not only saves indoor space but also enables intelligent home appliance linkage, making it more convenient.

[0084] This application includes an air conditioner with a fragrance diffuser, wherein each fragrance module 2 has an independent fan 4, air delivery cavity 11, fragrance cavity 243 and fragrance mouth 21, so there will be no problem of fragrance confusion.

[0085] The electronic control chamber 242 and fragrance chamber 243 of each fragrance module 2 are independent of each other, thereby avoiding the problem of corrosion or electrical conduction when the fragrance comes into contact with the atomizer main board 28 in the electronic control chamber 242, and improving the safety of the fragrance machine.
