Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, specifically to a humidifier's evaporative cooling pad holder and a humidifier having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Existing humidifiers, such as floor-standing humidifiers, use a separate design for the evaporative cooling pad and its holder. The cooling pad is also relatively large, accumulating dirt and water stains over time. Users often have to handle the pad directly to clean it, resulting in messy hands and water overflow, leading to a poor user experience. Furthermore, disassembling the cooling pad and its holder is also difficult; most evaporative cooling pad holders and holders on the market require separate disassembly and cleaning, resulting in an overall poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a humidifier curtain holder to solve the problem that the humidifier curtain in the prior art is inconvenient to remove.

[0004] A first aspect of the present invention provides a humidifier evaporative cooling pad bracket for mounting the humidifier's evaporative cooling pad. The evaporative cooling pad bracket includes: a support plate with drainage holes; a evaporative cooling pad mounting structure located around the drainage holes on the top of the support plate; and a push-pull structure, which includes a push-pull guide structure located around the support plate and a push-pull operation structure located on the mounting side of the support plate. Under the push-pull action of the push-pull operation structure, the support plate is pushed into the humidifier or pulled out of the humidifier along the push-pull guide structure.

[0005] Beneficial effects: The humidifier's evaporative cooling pad bracket provided in this application allows users to easily remove or push in the evaporative cooling pad and bracket together when cleaning it, thereby improving the user experience. At the same time, the evaporative cooling pad bracket is easy to pull out and not easy to shake during assembly, improving the efficiency of assembling and disassembling the evaporative cooling pad and its components.

[0006] Specifically, the main components of the humidifier include, from top to bottom, a wet curtain assembly, a drainage bracket, and a water tank, as well as an outer shell surrounding the wet curtain assembly and drainage bracket. The interior of the outer shell forms an installation space for the wet curtain assembly located at the top of the drainage bracket, and the outer shell has a doorway that communicates with this installation space. During use, the wet curtain assembly can be accessed and removed through this doorway for maintenance and replacement, thus improving the user experience.

[0007] In one alternative embodiment, the support plate is configured as a disc structure, and the push-pull guide structure includes two guide blocks disposed on both sides of the disc structure. The two guide blocks are tangent to the two peripheries of the center line of the disc structure and extend toward the mounting side of the disc structure.

[0008] Beneficial effects: The guide block can constrain the rotation of the wet curtain bracket inside the humidifier after it is assembled, thus playing a role in positioning and limiting the rotation of the wet curtain bracket.

[0009] In one alternative embodiment, the push-pull guide structure includes a protruding edge disposed at the bottom of the support plate, and at least the bottom periphery of the support plate is provided with protruding edges distributed circumferentially.

[0010] Beneficial effects: The bottom of the wet curtain assembly is provided with a raised edge that cooperates with the collection plate of the drainage bracket. By cooperating with the collection plate of the drainage bracket, the friction area between the wet curtain assembly and the drainage bracket can be reduced, so that the wet curtain bracket can be pushed and pulled smoothly during the assembly and disassembly process.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the push-pull operation structure includes a push-pull shell disposed on the mounting side of the support plate, and the top and / or bottom of the push-pull shell are provided with push-pull grooves.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The push-pull shell is set on the mounting side of the support plate. The push-pull shell forms a handle structure by setting a push-pull groove inside, which makes it convenient for users to push and pull the wet curtain bracket from the push-pull side of the wet curtain bracket.

[0013] In one optional embodiment, the evaporative cooling pad installation structure includes support ribs extending along the height direction of the evaporative cooling pad, and multiple support ribs spaced apart around the periphery of the drainage hole, with the evaporative cooling pad sleeved over the multiple support ribs.

[0014] Beneficial effects: Multiple support ribs support the wet curtain radially, and drainage space is left between two adjacent support ribs, which facilitates the flow of return water from the wet curtain assembly to the center of the support plate. The center of the support plate is equipped with a drainage hole to improve the return efficiency of the return water from the wet curtain assembly.

[0015] In one alternative embodiment, the support rib includes a guide portion and a fitting portion connected from high to low. The guide portion is configured as a guide slope portion distributed along the installation direction of the wet curtain, and the fitting portion is configured as a vertical portion that fits against the inner wall of the wet curtain.

[0016] Beneficial effects: The support ribs fit snugly against the inner ring of the evaporative cooling pad, guiding and positioning it to prevent movement. Without a support frame, the evaporative cooling pad can accumulate dirt over time, making it dirty and negatively impacting the user experience.

[0017] In one alternative embodiment, the evaporative cooling pad installation structure further includes a support ring connected to the top of a plurality of support ribs, the support ring being provided with a handle structure.

[0018] Beneficial effects: The handle makes it easy for users to pick up and put down the wet curtain for maintenance and cleaning. When cleaning the wet curtain, the wet curtain support can be lifted and cleaned together with the wet curtain. If the wet curtain assembly does not have a wet curtain support and handle, the wet curtain will easily accumulate a lot of stains after long-term use. If the user picks up the wet curtain directly, it will be dirty and will affect the user experience.

[0019] A second aspect of the present invention provides a humidifier comprising a wet curtain assembly, a drainage bracket, and a water tank assembly distributed from top to bottom. The wet curtain assembly includes a wet curtain bracket and a wet curtain sleeved outside the wet curtain bracket. The wet curtain is installed to the drainage bracket via the wet curtain bracket. The wet curtain bracket is configured as a wet curtain bracket for a humidifier according to a first aspect of the present invention.

[0020] In one alternative embodiment, the drainage support includes a collection plate and a retaining ring disposed around the periphery of the collection plate. The retaining ring is configured to have a clearance fit with the guide block of the wet curtain support. The wet curtain support pushes and pulls on the collection plate along the inner wall of the retaining ring via the guide block.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The width of the wet curtain is smaller than the width of the support plate. There is a water flow gap between the edge of the support plate and the outer wall of the wet curtain. The water flow gap can store some of the backflow water from the wet curtain, reducing the possibility of water overflow when the wet curtain is over-wetted.

[0022] By fitting the gap between the wet curtain assembly and the enclosure ring, an overflow gap can be formed between the wet curtain assembly and the enclosure ring. The overflow gap can temporarily store water that overflows from the outer wall of the wet curtain assembly, thereby reducing the phenomenon of water overflowing to the outside of the humidifier when the wet curtain assembly is full of water.

[0023] In one alternative embodiment, the mounting side of the manifold is further provided with a groove, at least part of which extends to the bottom of the sliding shell of the wet curtain bracket, forming an operating space for the sliding shell below the sliding shell.

[0024] Beneficial effects: The wet curtain assembly is equipped with a push-pull operation structure for user operation. The push-pull operation structure includes a push-pull shell set on the mounting side of the support plate. The groove set in the flow collection plate of the flow guide bracket forms a push-pull clearance space that cooperates with the push-pull shell. When the user pushes or pulls the push-pull shell by hand, the push-pull shell can be operated from this push-pull clearance space, and then pushed or pulled by the push-pull shell.

[0052] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention provides a wet curtain bracket 12 for a humidifier 100. The wet curtain bracket 12 is used to install the wet curtain 11 of the humidifier 100. The wet curtain bracket 12 includes a support plate 121, the support plate 121 is provided with a water leakage hole, and the top of the support plate 121 is provided with a wet curtain mounting structure located around the water leakage hole. The support plate 121 is also provided with a push-pull structure, which includes a push-pull guide structure 122 provided around the support plate 121 and a push-pull operation structure 123 provided on the mounting side of the support plate 121. Under the push-pull action of the push-pull operation structure 123, the support plate 121 is pushed into the interior of the humidifier 100 or pulled out of the humidifier 100 along the push-pull guide structure 122.

[0054] In this embodiment, the main components of the humidifier 100 include a wet curtain assembly 10, a drainage bracket 20 and a water tank 30 distributed from top to bottom, and a housing 50 surrounding the wet curtain assembly 10 and the drainage bracket 20. The interior of the housing 50 forms an installation space for the wet curtain assembly 10 located at the top of the drainage bracket 20, and the housing 50 is provided with a doorway that communicates with the installation space of the wet curtain assembly 10.

[0055] The assembly process of the humidifier 100 includes: installing the wet curtain 11 onto the wet curtain bracket 12 to form the wet curtain assembly 10; assembling the diversion bracket 20 onto the top of the water tank 30; and then pushing the wet curtain assembly 10 into the interior of the housing 50 from the doorway of the housing 50 along the top of the diversion bracket 20. A fan 40 is installed on the top of the housing 50 above the wet curtain assembly 10. During the use of the humidifier 100, the wet curtain assembly 10 can be taken out and put in through the doorway of the housing 50 for maintenance and replacement, thereby improving the user experience.

[0056] Furthermore, the wet curtain bracket 12 is also provided with a push-pull operation structure 123 located on the front side of the wet curtain bracket 12, and a push-pull guide structure 122 located around the support plate 121. During the process of the user taking and putting away the wet curtain assembly 10, the push-pull operation structure 123 of the wet curtain assembly 10 can be held, and the push-pull guide structure 122 of the wet curtain assembly 10 can be pushed in or pulled out along the outer shell 50, thereby improving the smoothness and efficiency of the wet curtain assembly 10.

[0057] Furthermore, the support plate 121 is set as an inclined surface with the outside higher than the inside, which facilitates drainage of the wet curtain assembly 10. The residual water on the wet curtain assembly 10 can flow from the outside to the inside to the drain hole of the support plate 121, and then drain to the diversion bracket 20 through the drain hole, and then flow back to the water tank 30 at the bottom of the humidifier 100 through the diversion bracket 20.

[0058] It should be noted that no restrictions are placed on the specific structure and position of the support plate 121 and the push-pull guide structure 122, because the specific structure of the support plate 121 needs to match the shape of the water tank 30 and the wet curtain 11. The shape of the water tank 30 includes circular, elliptical, or rectangular shapes, and the structure of the support plate 121 is set to the corresponding circular, elliptical, or rectangular shape. The push-pull guide structure 122 can be set as a guide protrusion, a guide groove 213, or a ball bearing. These structures of the support plate 121 and the push-pull guide structure 122 are all within the protection scope of the embodiments of this application. The specific structures of the support plate 121 and the push-pull guide structure 122 will be described in detail below.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the support disk 121 is configured as a disc structure, and the push-pull guide structure 122 includes two guide blocks disposed on both sides of the disc structure. The two guide blocks are tangent to the two peripheries of the center line of the disc structure and extend toward the mounting side of the disc structure.

[0060] In the above embodiments, the guide block can constrain the evaporative cooling pad bracket 12 from rotating inside the humidifier 100 after it is assembled into the humidifier 100, thereby positioning and restricting the rotation of the evaporative cooling pad bracket 12.

[0061] Furthermore, by setting the push-pull guide structure 122 as a guide block, the push-pull guide structure 122 can be kept within the outer contour of the wet curtain bracket 12, thereby reducing interference between the push-pull guide structure 122 and the drainage bracket 20 or the outer shell 50.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the push-pull guide structure 122 includes a protruding edge disposed at the bottom of the support disk 121, and at least the bottom periphery of the support disk 121 is provided with protruding edges distributed in the circumferential direction.

[0063] In the above embodiment, the collection plate 21 of the drainage bracket 20 is set as a platform, and the bottom of the support plate 121 is provided with a raised edge. The wet curtain assembly 10 is installed into the humidifier 100 along the collection plate 21 by pushing and pulling, or is pulled out from the humidifier 100 along the collection plate 21, thereby improving the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the wet curtain assembly 10, and the collection plate 21 plays a role in stabilizing and supporting the wet curtain assembly 10.

[0064] Specifically, the bottom of the wet curtain assembly 10 is provided with a raised edge that cooperates with the collection plate 21 of the drainage bracket 20. By cooperating with the collection plate 21 of the drainage bracket 20, the friction area between the wet curtain assembly 10 and the drainage bracket 20 can be reduced, so that the wet curtain bracket 12 can be pushed and pulled smoothly during the assembly and disassembly process.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the push-pull operation structure 123 includes a push-pull shell disposed on the mounting side of the support plate 121, and the top and / or bottom of the push-pull shell are provided with push-pull grooves.

[0066] In this embodiment, the push-pull shell is located on the mounting side of the support plate 121. The push-pull shell forms a handle structure by setting a push-pull groove inside, which makes it convenient for users to push and pull the wet curtain bracket 12 from the push-pull side.

[0067] Furthermore, the groove 213 provided in the collection plate 21 of the drainage bracket 20 forms a push-pull clearance space that cooperates with the push-pull shell. When the user pushes and pulls the push-pull shell by hand, the push-pull shell can be operated from this push-pull clearance space, and then pushed and pulled by the push-pull shell.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the wet curtain installation structure includes support ribs 124 extending along the height direction of the wet curtain 11, and a plurality of support ribs 124 are provided at intervals around the periphery of the drain hole, and the wet curtain 11 is sleeved over the plurality of support ribs 124.

[0069] In the above embodiment, multiple support ribs 124 serve to support the wet curtain 11 radially, and a drainage space is left between two adjacent support ribs 124 to facilitate the flow of the return water of the wet curtain assembly 10 to the center of the support plate 121. A water leakage hole is provided in the center of the support plate 121.

[0070] Furthermore, an air duct is provided between two adjacent support ribs 124, allowing external air to circulate through the wet curtain assembly 10.

[0071] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the support rib 124 includes a guide portion 1241 and a fitting portion 1242 connected from high to low. The guide portion is configured as a guide slope portion distributed along the installation direction of the wet curtain 11, and the fitting portion 1242 is configured as a vertical portion that fits against the inner wall of the wet curtain 11.

[0072] In the above embodiment, the support rib 124 is matched and fitted with the inner ring of the wet curtain 11. The support rib 124 has the function of guiding and positioning the wet curtain 11, preventing the wet curtain 11 from moving back, forth, left, or right. If the wet curtain assembly 10 does not have a wet curtain bracket 12, the wet curtain 11 is prone to accumulating a lot of dirt after long-term use. If the user directly removes the wet curtain 11, it will be dirty, affecting the user experience.

[0073] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the wet curtain installation structure further includes a support ring 126 connected to the top of a plurality of support ribs 124, and the support ring 126 is provided with a handle structure 125.

[0074] In this embodiment, the handle makes it convenient for users to pick up and put down the wet curtain 11 for maintenance and cleaning. When cleaning the wet curtain 11, the wet curtain bracket 12 can be lifted and cleaned together with the wet curtain 11. If the wet curtain assembly 10 does not have a wet curtain bracket 12 and a handle, the wet curtain 11 will easily accumulate a lot of dirt after long-term use. If the user picks up the wet curtain 11 directly, it will be dirty and affect the user's experience.

[0075] A second aspect of the present invention provides a humidifier 100, which includes a wet curtain assembly 10, a drainage bracket 20 and a water tank 30 assembly distributed from top to bottom. The wet curtain assembly 10 includes a wet curtain bracket 12 and a wet curtain 11 sleeved on the wet curtain bracket 12. The wet curtain 11 is installed to the drainage bracket 20 through the wet curtain bracket 12. The wet curtain bracket 12 is configured as the wet curtain bracket 12 of the humidifier 100 according to the first aspect of the present invention.

[0076] In this embodiment, the humidifier 100 includes, but is not limited to, a floor-standing humidifier, an ultrasonic humidifier 100, a cold evaporation humidifier 100, and a hot evaporation humidifier 100.

[0077] Preferably, the humidifier 100 in this embodiment is a floor-standing humidifier.

[0078] In addition, the main components of the humidifier 100 include, from top to bottom, a wet curtain assembly 10, a diversion bracket 20, a sleeve 60, a water tank support ring 31, and a water tank 30. The humidifier 100 is assembled as follows: the wet curtain assembly 10 is first assembled on the top of the diversion bracket 20, the sleeve 60 is assembled to the bottom of the diversion bracket 20 and fitted onto the outside of the diversion tube 23, the sleeve 60 and the diversion bracket 20 are fixedly assembled by screws, the water tank support ring 31 is assembled to the top edge of the water tank 30, and the wet curtain assembly 10, the diversion bracket 20 and the sleeve 60 are installed from above into the installation space formed by the water tank support ring 31 and the water tank 30.

[0079] During the operation of the humidifier 100, the water pump draws water from the water tank 30 onto the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10, thus wetting the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10. A fan 40 is installed on top of the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10, which discharges the moisture from the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10 into the air, thereby completing the humidification function of the humidifier 100. During this process, the water on the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10 flows back into the water tank 30. As the water flows back from the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10 to the water tank 30, the collecting plate 21 and the funnel structure 22 can guide the backflowing water on the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10, allowing the backflowing water to flow back into the water tank 30 along the collecting plate 21 and the funnel structure 22, thereby reducing the noise caused by the backflowing water falling directly into the water tank 30.

[0080] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the drainage bracket 20 includes a collection plate 21 and a retaining ring 212 disposed around the periphery of the collection plate 21. The retaining ring 212 is configured to have a clearance fit with the guide block of the wet curtain bracket 12. The wet curtain bracket 12 pushes and pulls on the collection plate 21 along the inner wall of the retaining ring 212 via the guide block.

[0081] In this embodiment, the width of the wet curtain 11 is smaller than the width of the support plate 121. There is a water flow gap between the edge of the support plate 121 and the outer wall of the wet curtain 11. The water flow gap can store a portion of the return water of the wet curtain 11, reducing the phenomenon that water easily overflows when the wet curtain 11 is over-wetted.

[0082] By fitting the wet curtain assembly 10 with the enclosure ring 212 with a gap, the gap between the wet curtain assembly 10 and the enclosure ring 212 can form an overflow gap. The overflow gap can temporarily store water overflowing from the outer wall of the wet curtain assembly 10, thereby reducing the phenomenon of water overflowing to the outside of the humidifier 100 when the wet curtain assembly 10 is fully wetted.

[0083] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the mounting side of the collector plate 21 is further provided with a groove 213, at least a portion of which extends to the bottom of the push-pull shell of the wet curtain bracket 12, forming an operating space for the push-pull shell below it.

[0084] In this embodiment, the wet curtain assembly 10 is provided with a push-pull structure for user operation. The push-pull structure includes a push-pull shell provided on the mounting side of the support plate 121. The groove 213 provided on the collection plate 21 of the diversion bracket 20 forms a push-pull clearance space that cooperates with the push-pull shell. When the user pushes and pulls the push-pull shell by hand, the push-pull shell can be operated from the push-pull clearance space, and then pushed and pulled by the push-pull shell.

[0085] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 15 The specific structure and working process of the humidifier 100 in this embodiment will be described in detail.

[0086] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the structure of the evaporative cooling pad bracket 12 from top to bottom includes: a handle at the top of the bracket 12 and a support ring 126 connected to the handle. The handle allows users to easily pick up and put down the evaporative cooling pad 11 for maintenance and cleaning. When cleaning the evaporative cooling pad 11, the bracket 12 and the evaporative cooling pad 11 can be lifted together for cleaning, allowing both to be cleaned thoroughly. If the evaporative cooling pad assembly 10 does not have a bracket 12 and a handle, the evaporative cooling pad 11 is prone to accumulating a lot of dirt after prolonged use, making it dirty for users to pick up directly, which affects the user experience.

[0087] The bottom of the handle is provided with a ring-shaped support ring 126. The bottom of the support ring 126 is connected to multiple evenly distributed support ribs 124. The support ribs 124 are matched and fitted with the inner ring of the wet curtain 11. The support ribs 124 have the function of guiding and positioning the wet curtain 11 to prevent the wet curtain 11 from moving back, forth or left and right.

[0088] The bottom of the support rib 124 is connected to the support plate 121 of the wet curtain bracket 12. The support plate 121 is set as an inclined surface with the outside higher than the inside, which facilitates drainage of the wet curtain bracket 12. The residual water on the wet curtain bracket 12 can flow from the outside to the inside to the drain hole of the support plate 121, and then drain through the drain hole to the diversion bracket 20, and then flow back to the water tank 30 at the bottom of the humidifier 100 through the diversion bracket 20.

[0089] Furthermore, the support plate 121 is provided with multiple support ribs 124 evenly distributed at intervals. The multiple support ribs 124 serve to support the wet curtain 11 radially. Moreover, there is a drainage space between two adjacent support ribs 124 to facilitate the flow of the return water of the wet curtain assembly 10 to the center of the support plate 121. A water leakage hole is provided in the center of the support plate 121.

[0090] Meanwhile, the width of the wet curtain 11 is smaller than the width of the support plate 121. There is a water flow gap between the edge of the support plate 121 and the outer wall of the wet curtain 11. The water flow gap can store a portion of the return water of the wet curtain 11, reducing the phenomenon that water easily overflows when the wet curtain 11 is over-wetted.

[0091] The support plate 121 of the wet curtain bracket 12 is provided with guide blocks around its periphery. The guide blocks can constrain the wet curtain bracket 12 to rotate inside the humidifier 100 after it is assembled into the humidifier 100, thus playing the role of positioning and restricting the rotation of the wet curtain bracket 12.

[0092] The mounting side of the support plate 121 of the wet curtain bracket 12 also has a push-pull shell. The push-pull shell forms a handle structure by setting a push-pull groove inside, which makes it convenient for users to push and pull the wet curtain bracket 12 from the push-pull side.

[0093] The bottom of the support plate 121 of the wet curtain bracket 12 is provided with a raised edge. The raised edge forms a push-pull surface for the support plate 121 to contact the drainage bracket 20.
