This application relates to a support structure, a humidification component, and a humidification device. The support structure includes a base and a water-receiving structure. The base has a mounting cavity and a mounting port; the water-receiving structure is circumferentially arranged around the mounting port. When the support structure is in the water-receiving state, the water-receiving structure protrudes inward from the inner surface of the base facing the mounting cavity, and defines a water-receiving cavity with the inner surface of the base. When the support structure is in the drainage state, the support structure protrudes outward from the outer surface of the base facing away from the mounting cavity, and the water-receiving structure is configured to form a drainage channel for guiding water outward.

When the support structure is in the water-receiving state, the water-receiving cavity can be used to collect excess water in the humidifier, preventing excess water from dripping out of the humidifier and contributing to environmental cleanliness.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of humidification device technology, and in particular to a support structure, humidification component and humidification device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, humidification devices come in various types. Among them, the evaporative humidifier's wet curtain is mounted on the humidifier's frame via a support structure. When the humidifier is running, it sprays water to wet the wet curtain. Excess water on the wet curtain flows through the support structure and is then discharged. When the wet curtain needs to be removed for cleaning or replacement, the support structure and the wet curtain are removed from the frame together. Excess water from the wet curtain drips into the environment, which is not conducive to environmental cleanliness and provides a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a storage support structure, humidification components, and humidification device to prevent excess water droplets from falling into the outside.

[0004] A support structure having a water-receiving state and a drainage state, the support structure comprising:

[0005] The base has a mounting cavity for placing a humidifier and a mounting port communicating with the mounting cavity; and

[0006] A water-receiving structure is fitted onto the base and arranged circumferentially around the mounting port;

[0007] When the support structure is in the water-receiving state, the water-receiving structure protrudes inward from the inner surface of the base facing the mounting cavity, and defines a water-receiving cavity with the inner surface of the base. When the support structure is in the drainage state, the support structure protrudes outward from the outer surface of the base facing away from the mounting cavity, and the water-receiving structure is configured to form a drainage channel for guiding water outward.

[0008] In one embodiment, the water receiving structure is provided with a drain outlet, which is located at the end of the water receiving structure away from the mounting port;

[0009] When the support structure is in a water-receiving state, the outer surface of the water-receiving structure and the inner surface of the base define the water-receiving cavity.

[0010] When the support structure is in the drainage state, the inner surface of the water receiving structure forms a flow guiding cavity, and the flow guiding cavity is connected to the drain outlet to form the drainage channel.

[0011] In one embodiment, the water-receiving structure is an elastic structure;

[0012] When the weight of the water in the water receiving cavity exceeds the maximum weight that the water receiving structure can withstand, the water receiving structure collapses under the gravity of the water and protrudes outward from the outer surface of the base, and the outer surface of the water receiving structure collapses and forms the inner surface of the water receiving structure.

[0013] In one embodiment, the water-receiving structure is a funnel structure.

[0014] In one embodiment, the base includes a base plate and a side plate. The base plate has the mounting opening. The side plate is fitted to the end of the base plate away from the mounting opening and is arranged around the base plate in a circumferential manner. The side plate and the base plate together form the mounting cavity.

[0015] In one embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the base plate gradually decreases in the direction from the side plate to the base plate.

[0016] In one embodiment, the base further includes a plurality of support ribs, all of which are arranged circumferentially around the mounting opening outside the water receiving structure, and all of the support ribs cooperate with the surface of the base facing the mounting cavity and together clamp the humidifier.

[0017] In one embodiment, a grip is provided at the end of the base away from the mounting port.

[0018] A humidification component, comprising:

[0019] The support structure in the foregoing embodiments;

[0020] A humidifier is placed inside the mounting cavity and arranged circumferentially around the water receiving structure.

[0021] A humidification device, comprising:

[0022] frame;

[0023] The humidification component in the foregoing embodiments is detachably mounted on the frame;

[0024] A water receiving tray is mounted on the frame, and a support structure is placed on the water receiving tray. When the water receiving structure is in the drainage state, the surface of the support structure facing away from the drainage channel is in contact with the surface of the water receiving tray.

[0025] The aforementioned support structure, humidification component, and humidification device include a support structure comprising a base and a water-receiving structure. The base has an installation cavity for placing the humidifier and an installation port communicating with the installation cavity; the water-receiving structure is fitted onto the base and circumferentially arranged around the installation port. When the support structure is in the water-receiving state, the water-receiving structure protrudes inward from the inner surface of the base facing the installation cavity, and defines a water-receiving cavity with the inner surface of the base. When the support structure is in the drainage state, the support structure protrudes outward from the outer surface of the base facing away from the installation cavity, and the water-receiving structure forms a drainage channel for guiding water outward. In this embodiment, when the support structure is in the drainage state, excess water in the humidifier can flow through the installation port and drain outward through the drainage channel, ensuring that excess water generated by the humidifier during operation can be discharged promptly. When the support structure is in the water-receiving state, the water-receiving cavity can collect excess water in the humidifier. When the support structure and humidifier are removed simultaneously, excess water dripping from the humidifier into the outside can be prevented, which helps maintain environmental cleanliness and improves user experience.

[0045] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A humidification device 100 includes a humidification component 200. The humidification component 200 includes a humidifying body 400 and a support structure 300.

[0046] During operation, the humidifier 100 dispenses water to wet the humidifier 400 and then atomizes the water in the humidifier 400 to discharge it to the outside, thereby achieving the humidification effect. When the humidifier 400 is saturated with water, the excess water will flow out of the humidifier 400 and fall onto the water receiving structure 32, through which the excess water can be discharged.

[0047] It should be noted that the specific type of humidifying device 100 is not limited, such as a humidifier, a humidifying fan, etc. In this application, a humidifier is used as an example of the humidifying device 100.

[0048] Please see Figures 3 to 6 The support structure 300 includes a base 31 and a water-receiving structure 32. The base 31 has a mounting cavity 311 for placing a humidifier 400 and a mounting port 312 communicating with the mounting cavity 311. The water-receiving structure 32 is fitted onto the base 31 and is arranged circumferentially around the mounting port 312. The humidifier 400 is arranged circumferentially around the water-receiving structure 32.

[0049] The support structure 300 has both a water-receiving state and a drainage state.

[0050] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4When the support structure 300 is in the water receiving state, the water receiving structure 32 protrudes inward from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 facing the mounting cavity 311, and defines the water receiving cavity 317 with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31.

[0051] In this application, when the support structure 300 is in the water-receiving state, the humidifier 400 is located inside the water-receiving cavity 317, and excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 will be collected in the water-receiving cavity 317. Thus, when the humidifier 400 needs to be removed as needed, both the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 can be removed simultaneously, preventing excess water from the humidifier 400 from dripping onto the outside, which helps maintain environmental cleanliness and improves the user experience.

[0052] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the support structure 300 is in the drainage state, the support structure 300 protrudes outward from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 facing away from the mounting cavity 311, and the water receiving structure 32 is constructed to form a drainage channel 321 for guiding water outward.

[0053] Understandably, when the humidifier 100 is operating continuously, if the support structure 300 is constantly in a water-receiving state, excess water in the humidifier 400 will continuously fall into the water-receiving chamber 317 and accumulate, eventually causing the water in the water-receiving chamber 317 to exceed its capacity and overflow. In this case, the overflowing water is detrimental to environmental cleanliness and makes it inconvenient for the user to remove the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400. Therefore, it is necessary to switch the support structure 300 to a drainage state so that excess water in the humidifier 400 can flow through the installation port 312 and drain through the drainage channel 321 formed by the water-receiving structure 32, thereby ensuring that excess water generated by the humidifier 400 during the operation of the humidifier 100 can be discharged in a timely manner.

[0054] In this embodiment, when the support structure 300 is in the draining state, excess water in the humidifier 400 can flow through the installation port 312 and drain through the drainage channel 321 to ensure that excess water generated by the humidifier 400 during the operation of the humidifier 100 can be discharged in a timely manner. When the support structure 300 is in the water receiving state, the water receiving cavity 317 can be used to receive excess water in the humidifier 400. When the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 are removed at the same time, excess water dripping from the humidifier 400 can be prevented from falling to the outside, which is conducive to maintaining environmental cleanliness and improving user experience.

[0055] It should be noted that the base 31 has opposing inner surfaces 3131 and outer surfaces 3132. The inner surface 3131 of the base 31 refers to the side of the base 31 facing the mounting cavity 311. Correspondingly, the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 refers to the side of the base 31 facing away from the mounting cavity 311. Therefore, the base 31 is formed with opposing inner and outer sides, where the inner side refers to the side where the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 is located, and the outer side refers to the side where the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 is located.

[0056] In this application, the water-receiving structure 32 protruding inward from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 facing the mounting cavity 311 means that the inner side of the water-receiving structure 32 protrudes from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31; the support structure 300 protruding outward from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 facing away from the mounting cavity 311 means that the outer side of the water-receiving structure 32 protrudes from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31. The inner and outer sides of the base 31 correspond to... Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The inner and outer sides are indicated by the middle arrow.

[0057] It should be noted that there is no limit to the specific form in which the water receiving structure 32 switches between the water receiving state and the drainage state.

[0058] In some embodiments, the water receiving structure 32 can be moved from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 towards the mounting cavity 311 to the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 towards the mounting cavity 311 by manual or mechanical operation, so as to realize the switching of the water receiving structure 32 from the water receiving state to the drainage state.

[0059] Specifically, for example, the water receiving structure 32 is cylindrical and has a first end and a second end opposite to each other along the cylindrical extension direction. When the water receiving structure 32 is in the water receiving state, the first end of the water receiving structure 32 protrudes from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31, and the second end or the outer wall of the water receiving structure 32 is connected to the edge of the mounting port 312. When the water receiving structure 32 is in the drainage state, the second end of the water receiving structure 32 protrudes from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31, the first end of the water receiving structure 32 is connected to the edge of the mounting port 312, and the opening of the first end of the water receiving structure 32 communicates with the mounting port 312. Thus, when the water receiving structure 32 is in the water receiving state, the outer wall of the water receiving structure 32 can define a water receiving cavity 317 with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31; when the water receiving structure 32 is in the drainage state, excess water in the humidifier 400 can flow through the mounting port 312, through the opening of the first end and the drainage channel 321, and be discharged.

[0060] In other words, the water-receiving structure 32 can slide relative to the base 31. By moving the water-receiving structure 32 along the cylindrical extension direction, the relative positions of the first and second ends of the water-receiving structure 32 with the mounting port 312 can be switched, thereby realizing the switching between the water-receiving structure 32 in the water-receiving state and the water-draining state. Moreover, the specific method of moving the water-receiving structure 32 in the cylindrical extension direction can be achieved by manual operation or mechanical operation.

[0061] In other embodiments, the water-receiving structure 32 can collapse and flip under the action of external force, so that the water-receiving structure 32 can be transformed from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 facing the mounting cavity 311 to the outer surface 3132 of the base 31 facing the mounting cavity 311, thereby realizing the switching of the water-receiving structure 32 from the water-receiving state to the drainage state.

[0062] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The water receiving structure 32 has a drain outlet 322, which is located at the end of the water receiving structure 32 away from the installation port 312.

[0063] It is understandable that when the support structure 300 is in the water-receiving state, the drain outlet 322 is away from the mounting port 312 along the direction of the water-receiving structure 32 protruding from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31. Thus, the entire length of the water-receiving structure 32 along its own direction protruding from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 can define a water-receiving cavity 317 with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31, and the water-receiving cavity 317 can have a larger capacity. When the support structure 300 is in the drainage state, excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 in the mounting cavity 311 can flow sequentially through the mounting cavity 311, the mounting port 312, and the drain channel 321. The drain outlet 322 is away from the mounting port 312 along the direction of the water-receiving structure 32 protruding from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31. Therefore, the drain outlet 322 is located downstream of the mounting port 312 along the flow direction. Thus, excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 in the mounting cavity 311 can be discharged through the drain outlet 322.

[0064] When the support structure 300 is in the water receiving state, the outer surface 323 of the water receiving structure and the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 define a water receiving cavity 317. When the support structure 300 is in the drainage state, the inner surface 324 of the water receiving structure forms a flow guiding cavity 325, and the flow guiding cavity 325 communicates with the drain outlet 322 to form a drainage channel 321.

[0065] It should be noted that the outer surface 323 of the water receiving structure specifically refers to the surface of the water receiving structure 32 facing the inside of the base 31 when the support structure 300 is in the water receiving state. This surface and the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 define a water receiving cavity 317. The inner surface 324 of the water receiving structure specifically refers to the surface of the support structure 300 facing the inside of the base 31 when the support structure 300 is in the drainage state. This surface surrounds a flow guiding cavity 325, and excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 in the installation cavity 311 can flow sequentially through the installation cavity 311, the installation port 312, and the flow guiding cavity 325 until it is discharged from the drain port 322.

[0066] The specific material of the water-receiving structure 32 is not limited. For some embodiments, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 The water-receiving structure 32 is an elastic structure.

[0067] The specific material of the elastic structure is not limited. For example, soft silicone, plastic, etc. In this application, the water-receiving structure 32 is made of soft silicone, so that the water-receiving structure 32 has good ductility and flexibility, is not easily damaged, and has good deformation ability.

[0068] When the weight of the water in the water receiving cavity 317 exceeds the maximum weight that the water receiving structure 32 can withstand, the water receiving structure 32 collapses under the gravity of the water and protrudes outward from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31, and the outer surface 323 of the water receiving structure collapses and forms the inner surface 324 of the water receiving structure.

[0069] Understandably, when the support structure 300 is in the water-receiving state, excess water in the humidifier 400 will continuously fall into the water-receiving cavity 317 and accumulate. The weight of the water in the water-receiving cavity 317 will gradually increase as the water accumulates. When the weight of the water in the water-receiving cavity 317 exceeds the maximum weight that the water-receiving structure 32 can bear, the water-receiving structure 32 will deform and collapse under the gravity of the water in the water-receiving cavity 317. The water-receiving structure 32 will flip from the inner surface 3131 protruding from the base 31 to the outer surface 3132 protruding from the base 31, thereby realizing the switching of the water-receiving structure 32 from the water-receiving state to the drainage state.

[0070] It should be noted that in embodiments where the water-receiving structure 32 is an elastic structure, the outer surface 323 and the inner surface 324 of the water-receiving structure are the same surface of the water-receiving structure 32. It can be understood that when the water-receiving structure 32 switches from a water-receiving state to a drainage state, the outer surface 323 of the water-receiving structure (i.e., the surface of the water-receiving structure 32 facing the inside of the base 31 when the support structure 300 is in the water-receiving state) will be flipped under the gravity of the water to form the inner surface 324 of the water-receiving structure (i.e., the surface of the support structure 300 facing the inside of the base 31 when the support structure 300 is in the drainage state).

[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The humidifier 100 also includes a frame 600 and a water tray 500. The support structure 300 is detachably mounted on the frame 600; the water tray 500 is mounted on the frame 600, and the support structure 300 is placed on the water tray 500. When the water receiving structure 32 is in the draining state, the surface of the support structure 300 facing away from the drain channel 321 is in contact with the surface of the water tray 500.

[0072] In one scenario, when the humidifier 100 is in operation, the support structure 300 in a water-receiving state is placed on the water-receiving tray 500, and the humidifier 400 is placed in the water-receiving cavity 317 defined by the inner surface 3131 of the support structure 300 and the base 31. Excess water in the humidifier 400 will continuously fall into the water-receiving cavity 317 and accumulate. When the weight of the water in the water-receiving cavity 317 exceeds the maximum weight that the water-receiving structure 32 can bear, the water-receiving structure 32 will deform and collapse under the gravity of the water in the water-receiving cavity 317. The water-receiving structure 32 switches from the water-receiving state to the drainage state, and the surface of the support structure 300 facing away from the drainage channel 321 is in contact with the surface of the water-receiving tray 500. The water in the water-receiving cavity 317 and the excess water in the humidifier 400 will flow through the mounting cavity 311, the mounting port 312, and the guide cavity 325 until they are discharged from the drain port 322. Thus, when the humidifier 400 needs to be removed according to actual needs, the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 need to be pulled out of the water tray 500 by sliding them horizontally. The surface of the water tray 500 applies an inward force to the surface of the water receiving structure 32 that is in contact with it, causing the water receiving structure 32 to rebound inward. The water receiving structure 32 flips from the outer surface 3132 protruding from the base 31 to the inner surface 3131 protruding from the base 31, thereby realizing the switching of the water receiving structure 32 from the draining state to the water receiving state. This allows the water receiving cavity 317 formed by the support structure 300 to receive excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 when the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 are removed from the water tray 500, so as to prevent excess water from dripping out of the humidifier 400 and falling into the outside world, which is conducive to maintaining environmental cleanliness and improving the user experience.

[0073] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The water receiving structure 32 is a funnel structure.

[0074] It is understandable that the funnel structure has a first opening and a second opening, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the funnel structure gradually decreases along the direction from the first opening to the second opening.

[0075] Therefore, in this embodiment, when the support structure 300 is in a water-receiving state, the edge of the first opening of the water-receiving structure 32 is connected to the edge of the mounting port 312, and the second opening is away from the mounting port 312 along the direction of the water-receiving structure 32 protruding from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31. Furthermore, the outer surface 3132 of the support structure 300 is an inclined surface. Thus, the cross-sectional area of ​​the water-receiving cavity 317 gradually increases along the direction of the water-receiving structure 32 protruding from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31. That is, when the support structure 300 is in a water-receiving state, the water-receiving structure 32 is a funnel structure, which is beneficial for defining and forming a water-receiving cavity 317 with increased capacity with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31.

[0076] When the support structure 300 is in the drainage state, the edge of the first opening of the water receiving structure 32 is connected to the edge of the mounting port 312, and the second opening is away from the mounting port 312 along the direction of the water receiving structure 32 protruding from the outer surface 3132 of the base 31. The inner surface 3131 of the support structure 300 is an inclined surface, which can guide water to flow along the inner surface 3131 of the support structure 300 to the drain port 322 and be discharged from the drain port 322, so as to improve drainage efficiency.

[0077] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The water receiving tray 500 has a funnel-shaped structure and is compatible with the support structure 300. Thus, when the support structure 300 is in the drainage state, the surface of the water receiving tray 500 can adhere to the surface of the support structure 300.

[0078] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The base 31 includes a base plate 313 and a side plate 314. The base plate 313 has an installation opening 312. The side plate 314 is connected to the end of the base plate 313 away from the installation opening 312 and is arranged around the circumference of the base plate 313. The side plate 314 and the base plate 313 together form an installation cavity 311.

[0079] It is understandable that when the support structure 300 is in the water receiving state, the base plate 313, the side plate 314 and the water receiving structure 32 together define and form a water receiving cavity 317 to receive excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 In the direction from the side plate 314 to the bottom plate 313, the cross-sectional area of ​​the bottom plate 313 gradually decreases.

[0081] Understandably, the base plate 313 is an inclined surface along the direction from the side plate 314 to the base plate 313. In this way, excess water flowing out of the humidifier 400 can flow to the installation port 312 under the guidance of the base plate 313, which is conducive to the smooth discharge of water and can improve drainage efficiency.

[0082] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The base 31 also includes multiple support ribs 315. All support ribs 315 are arranged around the water receiving structure 32 in the circumferential direction around the mounting port 312. All support ribs 315 cooperate with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 and together clamp the humidifier 400.

[0083] Understandably, in existing humidifiers, the humidifier element 400 is a cylindrical wet curtain, and the material of the humidifier element 400 is sponge. When the humidifier element 400 is filled with water, it is prone to collapse, thus affecting the atomization effect. Therefore, when the humidifier element 400 is installed on the support structure 300, the inner wall of the humidifier element 400 is in contact with the supporting rib 315, and the outer wall of the humidifier element 400 is in contact with the inner surface 3131 of the base 31. In this way, the supporting rib 315 and the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 do not cooperate sufficiently to support the humidifier element 400.

[0084] The specific design of the supporting rib 315 is not limited. For some embodiments, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 The end of the supporting rib 315 away from the inner surface 3131 of the base 31 has a guide surface 3151, which is inclined in the direction pointing to the side plate 314.

[0085] It is understandable that when the humidifier 400 is assembled with the supporting rib 315, the guide surface 3151 can guide the assembly direction of the humidifier 400 to improve the ease of assembly of the humidifier 400.

[0086] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The base 31 has a grip 316 at the end away from the mounting port 312.

[0087] It is understandable that when the humidifier 400 needs to be removed according to the actual situation, it is necessary to pull the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 out of the water tray 500 by translating them. This application provides a gripping part 316 so that the user can grip the support structure 300 to apply force to the support structure 300 and pull the support structure 300 and the humidifier 400 out of the water tray 500.

[0088] The specific form of the gripping part 316 is not limited. For some embodiments, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 The grip portion 316 protrudes from the end of the base 31 away from the mounting port 312, and the edge of the grip portion 316 is surrounded by a side plate 314.

[0089] 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.

[0090] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
