[0022] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that descriptions involving orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., and orientations or positional relationships indicated are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0024] In the description of the present invention, "several" means one or more, "more" means more than two, "greater than", "less than", "exceed" etc. are understood as not including the number itself, and "above", "below", "within" etc. are understood as including the number itself. If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0025] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0026] Reference Figure 1As shown, it can be understood that the humidification assembly of the related art includes a housing 101, and the housing 101 is provided with an air outlet 102 and a drain outlet 103. Figure 2 As shown, the housing 101 is provided with an installation cavity 201 inside, and a water storage part 202 is provided inside the installation cavity 201, and the water storage part 202 is used to store water. For example, the water storage part 202 is a water box, and liquid is stored in the water box. The top of the water box is open, and the evaporation of water increases the humidity of the target space. The air outlet 102 and the drain port 103 both penetrate the top wall of the housing 101, and are then connected to the installation cavity 201, that is, the air outlet 102 and the drain port 103 are both through holes 401, connecting the installation cavity 201 and the external space of the housing 101. The high-humidity air formed by the evaporation of water flows out from the air outlet 102, and the user can replenish the liquid for the water box through the drain port 103. Since the air outlet 102 and the drain outlet 103 are both open structures, they cannot be closed, which makes it easy for debris to fall from the air outlet 102 and the drain outlet 103 into the water storage part 202 and contaminate the liquid; or debris blocks the air outlet 102 or the drain outlet 103, resulting in failure to humidify normally or to replenish liquid normally. When the humidification component is not turned on or the liquid replenishment operation is not performed, the air outlet 102 and the drain outlet 103 are exposed on the shell 101, which will also weaken the integrity of the shell 101 to a certain extent and affect the aesthetic appearance.

[0027] It should be noted that the water storage component 202 may also include a humidifying material, which may be volcanic rock, non-woven fabric or the like, that is, the humidifying material may be a porous dense structure water-absorbing material, and the diameter and volume of the holes on the porous dense structure water-absorbing material are smaller than the diameter and volume of normally dripping water droplets, so that water droplets cannot flow through the porous dense structure water-absorbing material, while allowing air flow to pass through.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the embodiment of the present invention provides a sealing cover 301, referring to Figure 4As shown, the sealing cover 301 is arranged at the through hole 401, and is used to realize the conversion of the open and closed states of the through hole 401. The sealing cover 301 is plate-shaped as a whole. When the plane of the sealing cover 301 is perpendicular to the axis of the through hole 401, the plane of the sealing cover 301 can cover the through hole 401, so that external debris is not easy to enter the through hole 401, and the appearance material and color of the sealing cover 301 can be set to be close to the appearance material and color of the shell 101, or coordinated, so as to improve the aesthetics of the appearance. The side of the sealing cover 301 is also connected to a rotating shaft 302, and the rotating shaft 302 is used to be rotatably connected to the shell 101. When an external force acts on the sealing cover 301, the sealing cover 301 can rotate around the rotating shaft 302, so that the local spacing between the sealing cover 301 and the shell 101 is increased, thereby exposing the through hole 401, so that high-humidity air can be discharged from the through hole 401, or liquid can flow into the through hole 401, without affecting the normal use of the humidification component.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 As shown, it can be understood that the sealing cover 301 in the figure is in the second state, that is, the sealing cover 301 opens the through hole 401, and the plane of the sealing cover 301 is not parallel to the end face of the shell 101 where the through hole 401 is located, that is, the sealing cover 301 and the end face of the shell 101 where the through hole 401 is located have an angle greater than zero, and fluids such as gas and liquid can pass through the opening formed between the sealing cover 301 and the through hole 401 to achieve communication between the inside and outside of the shell 101. Using the force of the fluid to open the through hole 401 can reduce the use of the driving mechanism, reduce costs, reduce the occupied space, and reduce the failure rate.

[0030] Reference Figure 5 As shown, it can be understood that the sealing cover 301 in the figure is in the first state, that is, the sealing cover 301 closes the through hole 401, and the plane of the sealing cover 301 is parallel to the end face of the shell 101 where the through hole 401 is located, that is, the angle between the sealing cover 301 and the end face of the shell 101 where the through hole 401 is located is zero or close to zero, and fluids such as gas and liquid cannot pass through the opening formed between the sealing cover 301 and the through hole 401, or can only pass through in small amounts.

[0031] Reference Figure 3As shown, it can be understood that the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 does not coincide with the center line N of the sealing cover 301, that is, the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 is located on one side of the center line N of the sealing cover 301, and the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 divides the sealing cover 301 into a first part 303 and a second part 304, and the first part 303 and the second part 304 are respectively located on opposite sides of the axis M of the rotating shaft 302, and the maximum distance from the first part 303 to the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 is L1, and the maximum distance from the second part 304 to the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 is L2, which satisfies: L1<L2. The area of ​​the first part 303 is smaller than the area of ​​the second part 304. In the case of the same material, the weight of the first part 303 is smaller than the weight of the second part 304. Due to the different weights of the sealing cover 301 on both sides of the axis M of the rotating shaft 302, the sealing cover 301 can automatically reset around the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 after losing the effect of external force.

[0032] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the area and weight of the first part 303 and the second part 304 may also be the same. In this case, the first part 303 and the second part 304 are symmetrically arranged relative to the axis M of the rotating shaft 302, and the sealing cover 301 can be rotated in two different directions to open the through hole 401.

[0033] Reference Figures 3 to 5 As shown, it can be understood that the first part 303 is provided with a recess 305. When the first part 303 has the recess 305, it replaces the original physical structure at the position, which helps to reduce the weight of the first part 303, so that the weight of the first part 303 is less than the weight of the second part 304. For example, the first part 303 is made of plastic material, and the glue content of the part where the recess 305 is located can be reduced by the process of evacuating and reducing glue, forming a concave part. Among them, evacuating usually refers to removing material to achieve the purpose of reducing weight. Since the weights of the sealing cover 301 on both sides of the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 are different, the sealing cover 301 can automatically reset around the axis M of the rotating shaft 302 after losing the effect of external force.

[0034] It is understandable that a cavity may be provided inside the first part 303 to replace the recess 305 , so as to reduce the weight of the first part 303 , and finally achieve the purpose that the weight of the first part 303 is less than that of the second part 304 .

[0035] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the combination of the eccentric settings of the recess 305 and the rotating shaft 302 can better realize the automatic resetting of the sealing cover 301, and can reduce the size of the recess 305 and the eccentric distance of the rotating shaft 302, which helps to realize the miniaturized design of the sealing cover 301.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it can be understood that the housing 101 is provided with a first limiting portion 402, and in the first state, the second part 304 abuts against the first limiting portion 402. Since the weight of the first part 303 is less than the weight of the second part 304, in order to prevent the second part 304 from rotating above the first part 303, the sealing cover 301 is limited by the first limiting portion 402, so that the sealing cover 301 is kept in a substantially horizontal position, thereby better covering the through hole 401. The first limiting portion 402 is located below the second part 304, and under the action of external force, the second part 304 begins to separate from the first limiting portion 402, thereby reaching the second state.

[0037] Reference Figures 3 to 5 As shown, it can be understood that the second part 304 includes a second limiting portion 306, which is protruding in a direction away from the first part 303. In the first state, the second limiting portion 306 is pressed on the top of the first limiting portion 402. The second part 304 and the housing 101 form a step-shaped matching structure, that is, a mutually staggered connection structure, to achieve a better sealing effect and make the structure more compact.

[0038] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, it can be understood that an embodiment of the present invention provides a deformable member 601, which is arranged at the through hole 401 to realize the conversion of the through hole 401 between the open and closed states. The deformable member 601 includes a first adjustment portion 602 and a second adjustment portion 603, the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 are adjacent, and a gap 604 is formed between the edge of the first adjustment portion 602 facing the second adjustment portion 603 and the edge of the second adjustment portion 603 facing the first adjustment portion 602. That is, the adjacent parts of the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 are separated and not integrated. The first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 can both have deformation ability, or only the first adjustment portion 602 has deformation ability, or only the second adjustment portion 603 has deformation ability.

[0039] It is understandable that the deformable member 601 can be made of a silicone material. The silicone material can have a certain elasticity and can produce elastic deformation under the action of external force, and can quickly return to the original state after the external force disappears. Within the elastic deformation range, there is usually a linear relationship between the external force and the deformation, that is, when the external force increases, the deformation will also increase; when the external force decreases, the deformation will also decrease. Of course, the deformable member 601 can also be made of other materials that can produce elastic deformation.

[0040] Reference Figure 6As shown, it can be understood that in the first state, that is, in the initial state, the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 are close to each other, so that the edge of the first adjustment portion 602 and the edge of the second adjustment portion 603 fit together to reduce the gap 604. At this time, the gap 604 is close to zero, so that the through hole 401 can be covered. External debris is not easy to enter the through hole 401, and the appearance material and color of the sealing cover 301 can be set to be close to the appearance material and color of the housing 101, or coordinated, to improve the aesthetics of the appearance.

[0041] Reference Figure 7 As shown, it can be understood that in the second state, when an external force acts on the deformable member 601, the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 that have the ability to deform will be deformed, so that the edge of the first adjusting portion 602 and the edge of the second adjusting portion 603 are no longer completely fitted, that is, the edge of the first adjusting portion 602 and the edge of the second adjusting portion 603 are separated at least in a local area, thereby increasing the gap 604 between the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603. Fluids such as gas and liquid can enter or leave the through hole 401 through the gap between the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603, thereby achieving communication between the inside and outside of the housing 101.

[0042] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, it can be understood that the deformable member 601 further includes a connecting portion 605, which is annular, and the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 are located in the annular space of the connecting portion 605. The side of the first adjusting portion 602 away from the second adjusting portion 603 is connected to the connecting portion 605, and the side of the second adjusting portion 603 away from the first adjusting portion 602 is connected to the connecting portion 605. The connecting portion 605 is used to connect the housing 101, and the connecting portion 605 is located at the periphery of the through hole 401, so that the deformable member 601 is fixed on the housing 101, and the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 are located in the axial direction of the through hole 401, so that the through hole 401 can be covered.

[0043] It should be noted that in Figure 6 and Figure 7In the illustrated embodiment, the sizes of the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 are substantially equal, and the gap 604 between the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 is located in the middle of the through hole 401. In some other embodiments, the size of the first adjustment portion 602 may be greater than the size of the second adjustment portion 603, so that the gap 604 between the first adjustment portion 602 and the second adjustment portion 603 is close to the side where the second adjustment portion 603 is located. In addition, in some other embodiments, the number of gaps 604 is not limited to one, for example, the number of first adjustment portions 602 is two, two first adjustment portions 602 and one second adjustment portion 603 are all connected to the connecting portion 605, and the two first adjustment portions 602 and one second adjustment portion 603 respectively form two gaps 604.

[0044] Reference Figure 8 As shown, it can be understood that the top surface of the housing 101 is provided with a water receiving groove 801, and the water receiving groove 801 is a structure for collecting and guiding water flow. Fig.10 As shown, it can be understood that the water receiving tank 801 is provided with a drain port 103, and the drain port 103 is located at the bottom wall of the water receiving tank 801. The drain port 103 penetrates the bottom wall of the water receiving tank 801 and is connected to the installation cavity 201, so that the liquid can enter the water storage part 202 through the drain port 103 to achieve the operation of replenishing the liquid. For example, after the humidification component has been used for a period of time, the liquid content stored in the water storage part 202 decreases, and the user can pour the liquid on the water receiving tank 801, and the liquid on the water receiving tank 801 flows toward the drain port 103, and then enters the water storage part 202, increasing the liquid content stored in the water storage part 202. Since the area of ​​the water receiving tank 801 is much larger than the area of ​​the drain port 103, it can accommodate a large amount of liquid in a short time, and then let the liquid slowly flow into the drain port 103. That is, the user can first pour the liquid to be replenished into the water receiving tank 801, reducing the operation time of the user to replenish the liquid.

[0045] It should be noted that in addition to manually replenishing the liquid, other methods can also be used to replenish the liquid.

[0046] Reference Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown, it can be understood that the refrigeration equipment includes a cabinet 1101, a refrigeration component and a humidification component. The cabinet 1101 is provided with a storage room 1102 and an air supply duct 1103 for conveying airflow to the storage room 1102. The refrigeration component is used to provide a refrigeration environment for the storage room 1102. The refrigeration component is configured to generate a cooling airflow in a controlled manner and cause the cooling airflow to be conveyed to the storage room 1102 through the air supply duct 1103. In other words, the refrigeration component is used to refrigerate the storage room 1102. The humidification component is arranged in the cabinet 1101, configured to generate a high-humidity airflow in a controlled manner, and convey the high-humidity airflow to the storage room 1102. It can be understood that the moisture in the high-humidity airflow is relatively large, which can increase the humidity in the storage room 1102.

[0047] It can be understood that the refrigeration equipment in the embodiment of the present invention may specifically be a refrigerator, a wine cabinet or the like.

[0048] Reference Fig.11 As shown, it can be understood that the cabinet 1101 includes a shelf 1104, which is arranged in a horizontal direction. The shelf 1104 divides the space in the cabinet 1101 to form different storage spaces, which is more convenient for classified storage. The humidification component is installed on the shelf 1104. Fig.12 As shown, the refrigeration component includes an evaporator 1201, and a water receiving tank 801 is located below the evaporator 1201. The water receiving tank 801 collects the collected condensed water / defrost water into a water flow and drains it to the water storage member 202. When the refrigeration device is defrosting, the generated defrost water falls to the humidification component under the action of gravity, and can replenish water for the humidification component, thereby recycling the defrost water, which can effectively reduce the frequency of users adding water and realize the recycling of defrost water. For example, when the refrigeration device is defrosting, the generated defrost water falls to the water receiving tank 801 under the action of gravity, and the water flow of the water receiving tank 801 falls into the interior of the water storage member 202 from the drain port 103, replenishing water for the water storage member 202. The defrost water returns to the water storage member 202 along the water receiving tank 801 for reuse, which can effectively reduce the frequency of users adding water.

[0049] By setting a water receiving tank 801 under the evaporator 1201, the condensed water generated by the evaporator 1201 is effectively collected and guided, and then the water resources are used to evaporate through the humidification material, thereby achieving the purpose of humidifying the air. This design not only improves the utilization rate of water resources, but also reduces the frequency of users adding water.

[0050] Reference Fig.10As shown, it can be understood that the deformable member 601 is arranged at the drain port 103. When a large amount of liquid flows into the drain port 103, the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 are deformed under the gravity of the liquid, thereby increasing the gap 604 between the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 to open the drain port 103, and the liquid can enter the installation cavity 201 through the drain port 103, and then replenish the water for the water storage member 202. When the liquid in the water receiving tank 801 is reduced to a certain extent, the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 can overcome the gravity of the residual water droplets, realize automatic resetting, and then close the drain port 103, blocking other small debris from entering, and also improving the aesthetics.

[0051] Reference Fig.10 As shown, it can be understood that a boss 1001 is provided at the lower side of the drain port 103, and the deformable member 601 is sleeved on the boss 1001. Specifically, the connecting portion 605 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the boss 1001, and is fixed on the boss 1001 by its own tensioning force, and the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603 are located below the boss 1001. After the boss 1001 is provided, the depth of the drain port 103 is increased, so that more liquid can be stored in the drain port 103, which helps to increase the weight of the liquid used to open the gap 604 between the first adjusting portion 602 and the second adjusting portion 603, so that it is easier to open the drain port 103 when replenishing the liquid, thereby improving the efficiency of replenishing the liquid.

[0052] It is understandable that the drain port 103 is a specific functional structure of the through hole 401. Fig.10 The deformable member 601 in the drain port 103 can be used to open or close the drain port 103, and the sealing cover 301 can also be used to open or close the drain port 103. When a large amount of liquid flows into the drain port 103, the sealing cover 301 rotates around the rotating shaft 302 under the gravity of the liquid, thereby opening the drain port 103, and the liquid can enter the installation cavity 201 through the drain port 103, and then replenish the water for the water storage member 202. When the liquid in the water receiving tank 801 is reduced to a certain extent, since the weight of the first part 303 of the sealing cover 301 is less than the weight of the second part 304, the sealing cover 301 can be rotated in the opposite direction around the rotating shaft 302 to the original position due to its own weight, so as to achieve the reset and closure of the drain port 103, prevent other small debris from entering, and also improve the aesthetics.

[0053] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, it can be understood that the top surface of the housing 101 is provided with an air outlet area, and moisture is discharged from the air outlet area to the outside of the housing 101. Specifically, an air outlet 102 is provided in the air outlet area, and the air outlet 102 passes through the top surface of the housing 101 and communicates with the installation cavity 201, so that moisture at the water storage part 202 is discharged to the outside of the housing 101 through the air outlet 102.

[0054] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the air outlet 102 may also be disposed on the side of the housing 101 .

[0055] Reference Figure 8 As shown, it can be understood that the humidification component also includes a fan 203, which is arranged in the housing 101, the fan 203 is located at one end of the housing 101, and the water storage part 202 is located at the other end of the housing 101. The fan 203 blows air toward the water storage part 202, and the high-humidity air in the water storage part 202 is brought to the refrigeration device through the fan 203. That is, the fan 203 is provided with an air outlet, and the air outlet is directed toward the water storage part 202. When the fan 203 is powered on, relatively dry air is sucked into the fan 203 and accelerated to the top of the bottom water storage part 202. The dry air quickly passes through the liquid surface in the water storage part 202, and the air with high humidity on the liquid surface is quickly taken away to the storage room 1102 to mix with the air, thereby increasing the relative humidity of the storage room 1102. The long strip-shaped water storage part 202 design lengthens the length of the water storage part 202, making the water surface area larger, which helps to increase the evaporation rate of water. During the humidification process, more water molecules are exposed to the air, which speeds up evaporation.

[0056] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, it can be understood that the humidification component includes a connecting air duct 804, and the connecting air duct 804 is used to guide the airflow blown out by the fan 203 to the outer surface of the water storage member 202. The connecting air duct 804 is provided with a first pipe opening and a second pipe opening, the first pipe opening is connected to the outlet of the fan 203, and the second pipe opening is toward the gap between the cover plate 802 and the water storage member 202. The fan 203, the connecting air duct 804 and the water storage member 202 are arranged along the length direction of the housing 101.

[0057] Reference Figure 8 As shown, it can be understood that the housing 101 includes a base 803, and the base 803 is provided with a partition 805. The partition 805 divides the installation cavity 201 into a first installation groove 806 and a second installation groove 807. The partition 805 is located at the bottom of the first installation groove 806 and the second installation groove 807, so that the bottoms of the first installation groove 806 and the second installation groove 807 cannot be connected, but the tops of the first installation groove 806 and the second installation groove 807 can be connected. The fan 203 is arranged in the first installation groove 806, and the water storage member 202 is arranged in the second installation groove 807. When the water storage member 202 includes a water box, the water box is integrally formed with the housing 101 and becomes a part of the housing 101. The water box can also be separately arranged in the second installation groove 807, that is, the water box can be an independent component.

[0058] Reference Figure 8As shown, it can be understood that the housing 101 also includes a cover plate 802, which is connected to the base 803 and is located above the first mounting groove 806 and the second mounting groove 807. There is a gap 604 between the cover plate 802 and the liquid level of the humidification material or the water box to form a humidification channel. A plurality of air outlets 102 arranged at intervals are provided on the cover plate 802, and high-humidity air flows out from the plurality of air outlets 102 respectively. Since the plurality of air outlets 102 are arranged at intervals in the direction away from the fan 203, the air outlet area of ​​a single air outlet 102 is small, so that the high-humidity air cannot be concentrated from several air outlets 102 close to the fan 203. More high-humidity air will flow in the direction away from the fan 203, thereby taking away more moisture stored in the humidification material, thereby improving the humidification efficiency.

[0059] In some other embodiments, the shell 101 may also be formed by a combination of a base plate and a cover, that is, the water storage component 202 and the fan 203 are installed on the base plate, the cover is arranged on the periphery and the top surface of the water storage component 202 and the fan 203, and then is connected and fixed to the base plate, and the bottom surface of the water storage component 202 and the fan 203 is covered by the base plate, thereby completing the installation and protection of the water storage component 202 and the fan 203.

[0060] Reference Fig. 9 As shown, it can be understood that when the humidification component needs to be humidified, the fan 203 is started, and the external air enters the installation cavity 201, so that the wind pressure in the installation cavity 201 increases, and the airflow overcomes the gravity of the sealing cover 301 and pushes the sealing cover 301 to rotate around the rotating shaft 302. One side of the sealing cover 301 flips upward, thereby opening the air outlet 102, so that the airflow can flow out through the air outlet 102.

[0061] It can be understood that when humidification is completed, the fan 203 stops, the wind pressure in the installation cavity 201 decreases, and the sealing cover 301 rotates in the opposite direction under the action of gravity until the second limit portion 306 is crimped on top of the first limit portion 402, and the plane of the sealing cover 301 is parallel to the end face of the shell 101 where the air outlet 102 is located, that is, the angle between the sealing cover 301 and the end face of the shell 101 where the air outlet 102 is located is zero or close to zero, and the sealing cover 301 blocks the airflow to prevent the moisture in the water storage component 202 from naturally evaporating to the target space and affecting the humidity control accuracy.

[0062] It is understandable that the air outlet 102 is a specific functional structure of the through hole 401. Fig. 9The air outlet 102 can be opened or closed by the sealing cover 301 in the air filter 203, or the deformable member 601 can be used to open or close the air outlet 102. When the fan 203 is started, the airflow acts on the first adjustment part 602 and the second adjustment part 603 to deform at least one of them, thereby increasing the gap 604 between the first adjustment part 602 and the second adjustment part 603, so that the airflow can flow out through the air outlet 102. When the fan 203 stops, the first adjustment part 602 and the second adjustment part 603 return to their original state, reducing the gap 604 between the first adjustment part 602 and the second adjustment part 603, and blocking the airflow from passing through.

[0063] It can be understood that the refrigeration device of the embodiment of the present invention and the humidification component of the embodiment of the present invention can play the role of discharging moisture or replenishing water, and can also block the entry of debris and improve the aesthetic appearance by adopting the humidification component of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0064] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
