Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliances, and more specifically, to a wet curtain bracket and a humidifier having the same. Background Technology

[0002] A wet curtain is part of an evaporative humidifier, which is a device that increases indoor humidity by evaporating water. It also has the functions of increasing indoor temperature and purifying the air.

[0003] In existing technologies, when an evaporative humidifier is working, the water pump draws water and a distributor wets the evaporative curtain structure. This distributor has multiple drain holes, but due to the density and number of these holes, it's impossible to ensure a consistent flow rate across all holes. Furthermore, the varying absorbency of the evaporative curtain material itself makes it difficult to guarantee even water absorption. Additionally, traditional evaporative curtain supports lack water-collecting components on both sides. When the absorbent surface of the evaporative curtain doesn't absorb water promptly, water will flow to one or both sides and fall off. These factors result in localized dry areas on the surface of the evaporative curtain, directly affecting the humidifier's humidification capacity.

[0004] It is evident that existing wet curtain technologies suffer from uneven wetting and wasted water flow. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a wet curtain support and a humidifier having the same, so as to solve the problem of uneven wetting of the wet curtain in the prior art humidifier.

[0007] Furthermore, each external water inlet component is annular, and the outer guide surface extends circumferentially along the external water inlet component to form a funnel cavity for containing liquid; or each external water inlet component includes multiple water inlets, which are arranged around the wet curtain, with adjacent water inlets spaced apart or detachably connected; the outer guide surface includes multiple guide parts, which are correspondingly arranged on the multiple water inlets.

[0008] Furthermore, the evaporative cooling pad support also includes: a chassis component located below multiple external water connection components and the evaporative cooling pad; the chassis component has a receiving cavity for receiving liquid falling from the evaporative cooling pad.

[0009] Furthermore, the chassis components include: an annular base plate; an outer baffle plate connected to the outer periphery of the annular base plate; and an inner baffle plate connected to the inner periphery of the annular base plate. The outer baffle plate, the inner baffle plate, and the annular base plate form a receiving cavity, and the outer baffle plate and the inner baffle plate provide a stop for the wet curtain.

[0010] Furthermore, a drain outlet is provided on the inner baffle; and / or a limiting part is provided on the outer baffle.

[0011] Furthermore, the multiple external water connection components include a top external water connection component and a middle external water connection component, with the middle external water connection component located between the top external water connection component and the chassis component; the external connecting component is a rod, with one end of the external connecting component connected to the top external water connection component, the other end of the external connecting component connected to the chassis component, and the middle part of the external connecting component connected to the middle external water connection component.

[0012] Furthermore, the middle external water inlet component is provided with a clearance hole, and the external connecting component passes through the clearance hole and is connected to the inner wall of the clearance hole; or the external connecting component includes a first connecting rod segment and a second connecting rod segment, the top external water inlet component and the middle external water inlet component are connected by the first connecting rod segment, and the middle external water inlet component and the chassis component are connected by the second connecting rod segment.

[0013] Furthermore, the evaporative cooling pad support also includes: multiple internal water-contacting components located inside the evaporative cooling pad, each internal water-contacting component having an internal guide surface facing the evaporative cooling pad, the internal guide surface being arranged along the circumference of the evaporative cooling pad; the internal guide surface gradually approaching the evaporative cooling pad along the flow direction of the water flow on the evaporative cooling pad; the multiple internal water-contacting components being arranged sequentially at intervals along the flow direction of the water flow on the evaporative cooling pad; and multiple internal connecting components, each of which is connected to the multiple internal water-contacting components.

[0014] According to another aspect of the present invention, a humidifier is provided, including a wet curtain and a wet curtain support, wherein the wet curtain support is the aforementioned wet curtain support, and the external water contact component of the wet curtain support contacts the outer peripheral surface of the wet curtain.

[0015] Furthermore, the humidifier also includes a liquid distributor, which is located on top of the wet curtain and has its outlet facing the outer edge of the wet curtain.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a wet curtain support, including multiple external water inlet components 1 and external connecting components 3, wherein each external water inlet component 1 is arranged around the wet curtain 2; each external water inlet component 1 has an external guide surface 11 facing the wet curtain 2, the external guide surface 11 is arranged around the wet curtain 2, and along the flow direction of the water flow on the wet curtain 2, the external guide surface 11 gradually approaches the wet curtain 2; the multiple external water inlet components 1 are arranged sequentially at intervals along the flow direction of the water flow on the wet curtain 2; the external connecting components 3 are connected to the multiple external water inlet components 1.

[0027] This invention provides a wet curtain support bracket, which includes multiple external water inlet components 1 and external connecting components 3. When the water absorption rate at the top of the wet curtain 2 is lower than the water discharge rate of the distributor 6, the excess water flow is collected and stored by the multiple external water inlet components 1. Under the action of the external guide surface 11, the water flow is buffered and flows towards the wet curtain 2, thereby allowing the water flow to be absorbed secondary by the wet curtain 2, ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly wetted, thus improving the humidification capacity. The external connecting components 3 connect the multiple external water inlet components 1 together and provide support for them. Furthermore, by setting the external guide surface 11 to gradually approach the wet curtain 2, it plays a guiding role during the assembly process of the wet curtain 2, making it easier to assemble the wet curtain 2 onto the wet curtain support, thereby solving the problem of uneven wetting of the wet curtain in the prior art humidifiers.

[0028] In the first embodiment:

[0029] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the wet curtain bracket in this application is provided with an external water connection component 1 and an external connection component 3.

[0030] Specifically, the external water connection component 1 in this application has the following structure:

[0031] One specific structure is as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to adapt to the ring-shaped wet curtain 2, each external water component 1 is ring-shaped. The outer guide surface 11 extends along the circumference of the external water component 1 to form a funnel cavity 4 for containing liquid. The excess water flow is collected and stored through the funnel cavity 4, so that the water flow is buffered and flows to the wet curtain 2, so that the water flow is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 for a second time, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly wetted.

[0032] Another specific structure is as follows: each external water receiving component 1 includes multiple water receiving parts, which are arranged around the wet curtain 2. Adjacent water receiving parts are spaced apart or detachably connected; the external guide surface 11 includes multiple guide parts, which are arranged one-to-one on the multiple water receiving parts. This arrangement can reduce the production cost of the external water receiving component 1 while facilitating disassembly. Excess water flow can be collected and stored through each guide part, so that the water flow is buffered and flows to the wet curtain 2, so that the water flow is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 for a second time, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly wetted.

[0033] Furthermore, in order to collect the water flowing down the wet curtain 2 to the bottom, the wet curtain support also includes a chassis component 5, which is located below the multiple external water inlets 1 and the wet curtain 2; the chassis component 5 has a receiving cavity 51 for receiving the liquid falling from the wet curtain 2, so as to collect excess water flow through the receiving cavity 51.

[0034] Generally, the chassis component 5 includes an annular base plate 52, an outer baffle 53, and an inner baffle 54. The annular base plate 52 is provided to accommodate the annularly arranged wet curtain 2. The outer baffle 53 is connected to the outer periphery of the annular base plate 52 to limit and support the bottom of the wet curtain 2 and prevent water from flowing outward. The inner baffle 54 is connected to the inner periphery of the annular base plate 52. The outer baffle 53, the inner baffle 54, and the annular base plate 52 form a receiving cavity 51, and the outer baffle 53 and the inner baffle 54 stop the wet curtain 2.

[0035] Preferably, in order to drain the water that accumulates in the receiving cavity 51, the inner baffle 54 is provided with a drain outlet 541. When too much water accumulates in the receiving cavity 51, the water is drained out through the drain outlet 541, thereby preventing the bottom of the wet curtain 2 from being soaked in water for a long time when the humidifier is not working, thus preventing the wet curtain 2 from getting moldy and smelly, and extending the service life of the wet curtain 2.

[0036] In addition, in order to limit the position of the wet curtain bracket mounted on the humidifier, a limiting part 531 is provided on the outer baffle 53. When the wet curtain bracket is mounted on the humidifier, the limiting part 531 is locked onto the locking part of the humidifier body to limit the position of the wet curtain bracket and prevent relative displacement between the wet curtain bracket and the humidifier body during use.

[0037] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the multiple external water inlet components 1 include a top external water inlet component 12 and a middle external water inlet component 13, with the middle external water inlet component 13 located between the top external water inlet component 12 and the chassis component 5; the external connecting component 3 is a rod, with one end of the external connecting component 3 connected to the top external water inlet component 12, the other end of the external connecting component 3 connected to the chassis component 5, and the middle part of the external connecting component 3 connected to the middle external water inlet component 13. By setting the top external water inlet component 12 to limit and stop the top of the wet curtain 2, when the water absorption speed at the top of the wet curtain 2 is lower than the water flow speed of the distributor 6, the excess water flow temporarily gathers on the top external water inlet component 12. Since the excess water flow can flow freely on the top external water inlet component 12, the liquid in the area with more water flow flows to the area with less water flow, so as to realize the automatic distribution of water flow, thereby making the water absorption at the top of the wet curtain 2 more uniform. By setting the middle external water inlet component 13 to buffer and gather the water flow flowing down the wet curtain 2, the water flow gathered on the middle external water inlet component 13 is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 a second time, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and uniformly wetted.

[0038] Specifically, the external connecting component 3 extends from the top of the evaporative cooling pad support to the bottom of the evaporative cooling pad support. The specific arrangement of the external connecting component 3 in this application is as follows:

[0039] The first specific setting method is as follows: the middle external water inlet component 13 is provided with a clearance hole, and the external connecting component 3 passes through the clearance hole and is connected to the inner wall of the clearance hole, so that the external connecting component 3 and the middle external water inlet component 13 are connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. This setting makes the connection between the external connecting component 3 and the middle external water inlet component 13 easier to disassemble and maintain. In addition, by providing multiple snap-fit ​​parts on the external connecting component 3, the setting position of the middle external water inlet component 13 on the external connecting component 3 can be adjusted to flexibly set the installation position of the middle external water inlet component 13.

[0040] The second specific configuration is as follows: the external connecting component 3 includes a first connecting rod segment 31 and a second connecting rod segment 32. The top external water receiving component 12 and the middle external water receiving component 13 are connected by the first connecting rod segment 31, and the middle external water receiving component 13 and the chassis component 5 are connected by the second connecting rod segment 32. This configuration makes the position between the external connecting component 3 and the middle external water receiving component 13 relatively fixed. The external connecting component 3 and the middle external water receiving component 13 are connected by welding or bolts.

[0041] In this application, by setting the outlet 61 of the humidifier's distributor 6 on the outer edge near the top of the wet curtain 2, the water can flow down along the outer side of the wet curtain 2 as it flows downward. This allows the excess water to be collected by the external water receiving component 1 located on the outer side of the wet curtain 2, so that the water flows from the outer side of the wet curtain 2 to the inner side of the wet curtain 2, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly moistened.

[0042] In the second embodiment:

[0043] The wet curtain bracket in this application is provided with the aforementioned external water inlet component 1 and external connecting component 3, and is also provided with an internal water inlet component and an internal connecting component.

[0044] To limit the movement of the evaporative cooling pad 2 and prevent water from flowing away from the inside of the evaporative cooling pad 2, the evaporative cooling pad support also includes multiple internal water-receiving components and multiple internal connecting components. The internal water-receiving components are located inside the evaporative cooling pad 2, and each internal water-receiving component has an internal guide surface facing the evaporative cooling pad 2. The internal guide surface is arranged circumferentially towards the evaporative cooling pad 2 along the flow direction of the water flow on the evaporative cooling pad 2. The multiple internal water-receiving components are arranged sequentially at intervals along the flow direction of the water flow on the evaporative cooling pad 2. The multiple internal connecting components are all connected to the multiple internal water-receiving components. When the water absorption rate at the top of the evaporative cooling pad 2 is lower than the water discharge rate of the distributor 6, multiple internal water-receiving components are used to collect and store excess water flowing towards the inside of the evaporative cooling pad 2. Under the action of the internal guide surface, the water flow is buffered and flows towards the evaporative cooling pad 2, allowing for secondary absorption by the pad. This ensures that the evaporative cooling pad 2 is completely and evenly wetted, thereby increasing the humidification capacity. Multiple internal connecting components are used to connect these internal water-receiving components and provide support. Furthermore, by setting the internal guide surface to gradually approach the evaporative cooling pad 2, it guides the assembly of the evaporative cooling pad 2, facilitating its placement on the evaporative cooling pad support. This solves the problem of uneven wetting in existing humidifiers.

[0045] Specifically, the internal water connection component in this application has the following structure:

[0046] One specific structure is as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to adapt to the ring-shaped wet curtain 2, each inner water inlet component is ring-shaped, and the inner guide surface extends along the circumference of the inner water inlet component to form a funnel cavity 4 for containing liquid. The excess water flow is collected and stored through the funnel cavity 4, so that the water flow is buffered and flows to the wet curtain 2, so that the water flow is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 for a second time, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly wetted.

[0047] Another specific structure is as follows: each internal water receiving component includes multiple water receiving parts, which are arranged around the wet curtain 2. Adjacent water receiving parts are spaced apart or detachably connected; the internal guide surface includes multiple guide parts, which are arranged one-to-one on the multiple water receiving parts. This arrangement can reduce the production cost of the internal water receiving components while facilitating disassembly. Excess water flow can be collected and stored through each guide part, thereby buffering the water flow and allowing it to flow to the wet curtain 2. The water flow is then absorbed secondary by the wet curtain 2, thus ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly wetted.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to collect the water flowing down the wet curtain 2 to the bottom, the wet curtain support also includes a chassis component 5, which is located below a plurality of inner water receiving components and the wet curtain 2; the chassis component 5 has a receiving cavity 51 for receiving the liquid falling from the wet curtain 2, so as to collect excess water flow through the receiving cavity 51.

[0049] Generally, the chassis component 5 includes an annular base plate 52, an outer baffle 53, and an inner baffle 54. The annular base plate 52 is provided to accommodate the annularly arranged wet curtain 2. The outer baffle 53 is connected to the outer periphery of the annular base plate 52 to limit and support the bottom of the wet curtain 2 and prevent water from flowing outward. The inner baffle 54 is connected to the inner periphery of the annular base plate 52. The outer baffle 53, the inner baffle 54, and the annular base plate 52 form a receiving cavity 51, and the outer baffle 53 and the inner baffle 54 stop the wet curtain 2.

[0050] Preferably, in order to drain the water that accumulates in the receiving cavity 51, the inner baffle 54 is provided with a drain outlet 541. When too much water accumulates in the receiving cavity 51, the water is drained out through the drain outlet 541, thereby preventing the bottom of the wet curtain 2 from being soaked in water for a long time when the humidifier is not working, thus preventing the wet curtain 2 from getting moldy and smelly, and extending the service life of the wet curtain 2.

[0051] In addition, in order to limit the position of the wet curtain bracket mounted on the humidifier, a limiting part 531 is provided on the outer baffle 53. When the wet curtain bracket is mounted on the humidifier, the limiting part 531 is locked onto the locking part of the humidifier body to limit the position of the wet curtain bracket and prevent relative displacement between the wet curtain bracket and the humidifier body during use.

[0052] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, multiple internal water inlet components include a top internal water inlet component and a middle internal water inlet component, with the middle internal water inlet component located between the top internal water inlet component and the chassis component 5; the internal connecting component is a rod, with one end of the internal connecting component connected to the top internal water inlet component, the other end of the internal connecting component connected to the chassis component 5, and the middle part of the internal connecting component connected to the middle internal water inlet component. By setting a top inner water receiving component to limit and stop the top of the wet curtain 2, when the water absorption speed at the top of the wet curtain 2 is lower than the water flow speed of the distributor 6, the excess water flow temporarily gathers on the top inner water receiving component. Since the excess water flow can flow freely on the top inner water receiving component, the liquid in the area with more water flow flows to the area with less water flow, thereby achieving automatic water flow adjustment, making the water absorption at the top of the wet curtain 2 more uniform. By setting a middle inner water receiving component to buffer and gather the water flow flowing down the wet curtain 2, the water flow gathered on the middle inner water receiving component is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 a second time, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and uniformly wetted.

[0053] Specifically, the inner connecting component extends from the top of the evaporative cooling pad support to the bottom of the evaporative cooling pad support. The specific arrangement of the inner connecting component in this application is as follows:

[0054] The first specific setting is as follows: the central inner water inlet component is provided with a clearance hole, and the inner connecting component passes through the clearance hole and is connected to the inner wall of the clearance hole, so that the connection between the inner connecting component and the central inner water inlet component is a detachable connection achieved by a snap-fit. This setting makes the connection between the inner connecting component and the central inner water inlet component easier to disassemble and maintain. In addition, by providing multiple snap-fit ​​parts on the inner connecting component, the setting position of the central inner water inlet component on the inner connecting component can also be adjusted to flexibly set the installation position of the central inner water inlet component.

[0055] The second specific configuration is as follows: the inner connecting component includes a third connecting rod segment and a fourth connecting rod segment. The top inner water receiving component and the middle inner water receiving component are connected by the third connecting rod segment, and the middle inner water receiving component and the chassis component 5 are connected by the fourth connecting rod segment. This configuration makes the position between the inner connecting component and the inner water receiving component relatively fixed. The inner connecting component and the inner water receiving component are connected by welding or bolts.

[0056] In this application, by setting the outlet 61 of the humidifier's distributor 6 on the inner edge near the top of the wet curtain 2, the water can flow down along the inner side of the wet curtain 2 as it flows downward. This allows excess water to be collected by the inner water receiving component located on the inner side of the wet curtain 2, so that the water flows from the inner side of the wet curtain 2 to the outer side of the wet curtain 2, thereby ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely and evenly moistened.

[0057] The present invention also provides a humidifier, including a wet curtain 2 and a wet curtain support, wherein the wet curtain support is the aforementioned wet curtain support, and the external water connection component 1 of the wet curtain support is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the wet curtain 2.

[0058] Generally, the humidifier also includes a liquid distributor 6, which is located on top of the wet curtain 2, and the liquid outlet 61 of the liquid distributor 6 is arranged facing the outer edge and / or inner edge of the wet curtain 2.

[0059] Furthermore, the humidifier is an evaporative humidifier.

[0060] The wet curtain bracket in this embodiment is also applicable to evaporative cooling fans.

[0061] To prevent the wet curtain 2 from absorbing water and expanding during use, there is a predetermined gap between the wet curtain 2 and the side wall of the wet curtain support.

[0062] Optionally, the external water connection component 1 is an annular funnel-shaped rib.

[0063] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in the embodiment of this application, the wet curtain bracket is provided with multiple annular external water connection components 1. The outlet 61 of the liquid distributor 6 is located on the outer side near the wet curtain 2. This allows the water flow that is not absorbed by the wet curtain 2 in time after receiving the water flow from the liquid distributor 6 to be temporarily stored on the outer external water connection component 1. Therefore, the excess water flow has a second absorption opportunity, thereby increasing the absorption time of the wet curtain 2 and ensuring that the wet curtain 2 is fully wetted.

[0064] Specifically, when the evaporative humidifier is working, the water pump draws water and the distributor 6 distributes the liquid to the evaporative curtain 2 for wetting. The distributor 6 has several evenly distributed outlets 61, which are located near the outer edge of the top of the evaporative curtain 2, allowing water to overflow when full. By setting an annular external water receiving component 1, when the water absorption rate at the top of the evaporative curtain 2 is lower than the water discharge rate of the distributor 6, the excess water will accumulate and be stored in the external water receiving component 1. This buffers the water flow before it is absorbed again by the evaporative curtain, ensuring that the evaporative curtain is completely wetted and improving the humidification capacity. Compared with the traditional evaporative curtain support, the evaporative curtain support in this embodiment adds an external water receiving component 1. Combined with the fact that the outlets 61 of the distributor 6 are positioned towards the outer edge of the evaporative curtain 2, the water flow is buffered and flows back onto the evaporative curtain 2, achieving secondary absorption by the evaporative curtain 2 and ensuring complete wetting of the evaporative curtain 2.

[0065] Secondly, the evaporative cooling pad bracket in this embodiment is equipped with an external water inlet component 1, which also serves as a guide when the evaporative cooling pad is assembled onto the bracket, facilitating assembly. In addition, the base component 5 ensures that the evaporative cooling pad 2 will not shift after assembly, and the drain outlet 541 allows water to flow out when there is too much water, preventing the evaporative cooling pad 2 from being soaked for a long time when the humidifier is not working, thus preventing problems such as mold and odor.

[0066] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0067] The present invention provides a wet curtain support, which includes multiple external water inlet components 1 and external connecting components 3. Each external water inlet component 1 is arranged around the wet curtain 2, and each external water inlet component 1 has an external guide surface 11 facing the wet curtain 2. The external guide surface 11 is arranged around the wet curtain 2 and gradually approaches the wet curtain 2 along the flow direction of the water flow on the wet curtain 2. The multiple external water inlet components 1 are arranged sequentially at intervals along the flow direction of the water flow on the wet curtain 2. The external connecting components 3 are all connected to the multiple external water inlet components 1. When the water absorption rate at the top of the wet curtain 2 is lower than the water discharge rate of the distributor 6, the excess water flow is collected and stored by setting multiple external water connection components 1. Under the action of the external guide surface 11, the water flow is buffered and flows to the wet curtain 2, so that the water flow is absorbed by the wet curtain 2 for a second time, ensuring that the wet curtain 2 can be completely wetted and the humidification capacity is improved. By setting external connection components 3 to connect multiple external water connection components 1 together and to support multiple external water connection components 1, the problem of uneven wetting of the wet curtain in the humidifier in the prior art is solved.
