[0033] In existing technologies, humidifiers separately installed in vehicles require users to constantly monitor the water level and manually add water, making them inconvenient to use and potentially affecting the user's driving experience. To address these issues, this disclosure provides a vehicle humidification system integrated with the entire vehicle. This system collects water generated by the vehicle's water purification equipment and delivers it to the humidifier, automatically adding water to the humidifier.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a schematic diagram of a vehicle humidification system provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. The vehicle humidification system may include: a first water pump 2, a three-way valve 3, a water storage device 4, a second water pump 5, and a humidifier 6.

[0035] The vehicle humidification system provided in this embodiment connects the vehicle water generator 1 to the water storage device 4 via a three-way valve 3. This allows for the appropriate amount of water generated by the vehicle water generator 1 to be transferred to the water storage device 4 for storage according to actual needs. Excess water generated by the vehicle water generator 1 is discharged in a timely manner to prevent malfunctions caused by water circulating into the vehicle water generator 1, thus ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle water generator 1.

[0036] Among them, the vehicle water production equipment 1 can be a device that produces water on a vehicle.

[0037] Optionally, the vehicle water production device 1 may include the vehicle's fuel cell stack and / or onboard air conditioner.

Based on the amount of water entering, leaving, and the amount of water stored in the water storage device 4, the first water level of the water storage device 4 is determined in real time. Based on the amount of water leaving, the amount of water stored in the humidifier 6, and the humidification rate of the humidifier 6, the second water level of the humidifier 6 is determined in real time. This embodiment uses flow sensors to obtain the amount of water transmitted to the water storage device 4 and the humidifier 6 in real time, thereby calculating the water levels of the water storage device 4 and the humidifier 6. This embodiment also uses real-time data from the flow sensors to determine whether the humidification function of the vehicle humidification system is malfunctioning and to accurately locate the fault.

[0043] The first preset water level threshold can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, if the first water level is detected to be lower than the first preset water level threshold in real time, the first water pump 2 is controlled to start, and the water produced by the vehicle water-making device 1 is transported to the three-way valve 3 by the first water pump 2. The second end of the three-way valve 3 is then opened, allowing the water produced by the vehicle water-making device 1 to be transported to the water storage device 4 for storage.

[0047] The second preset water level threshold can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, if the second water level is detected to be lower than the second preset water level threshold in real time, the second water pump 5 is controlled to start, and water from the water storage device 4 is transported to the humidifier 6 via the second water pump 5. The humidifier 6 then humidifies the interior of the vehicle. By setting the second preset water level threshold, this embodiment indicates the critical water level at which water needs to be added to the humidifier 6, which helps to promptly deliver water from the water storage device 4 to the humidifier 6, ensuring that the humidifier 6 can continuously humidify the vehicle interior.

[0048] Optionally, the atomizing outlet of the humidifier 6 can be set at the air conditioning vent inside the vehicle, so that the humidifier 6 can humidify the interior of the vehicle in accordance with the airflow direction and output volume of the air conditioning vent.
