TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pendulum clock devices, and particularly relates to a humidifying pendulum clock. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a traditional timekeeping device, the pendulum clock mainly focuses on time display and decoration, and has a relatively simple structure. With the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for indoor environmental comfort is increasing. As a common environmental regulation device, the humidifier is widely used to increase air humidity.
[0003] At present, there are some products on the market that attempt to combine the functions of timekeeping and humidification, but such products often have deficiencies in the uniformity of humidification. For example, due to the fixed position of the air outlet of the humidifier, the mist distribution range is limited, which can easily cause local humidity to be too high or too low, affecting the user experience. In addition, there is a lack of a simple and effective mechanical structure to achieve the alternate and uniform spraying of mist in the prior art, thereby limiting the optimization of product functions and the improvement of practicality.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a new type of humidifying pendulum clock that retains the basic functions of the pendulum clock, integrates a humidifying mechanism, and realizes uniform distribution of mist through reasonable structural design, so as to solve the above problems. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims to overcome the above technical deficiencies and provide a humidifying pendulum clock to solve the technical problem of uneven mist distribution in the combination of humidification and timekeeping in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above technical purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme: The present application provides a humidifying pendulum clock, comprising: a housing; a humidifying mechanism arranged in the housing, the humidifying mechanism comprising a nebulizer and a mist passage in communication with each other, and at least two air outlets being formed at the end of the mist passage; a swinging mechanism comprising a pendulum baffle and movable blocks, the pendulum baffle being swingably installed in the housing, each movable block being arranged corresponding to one air outlet, and the movement path of the movable block being able to block or open the air outlet; wherein the pendulum baffle is provided with magnetic connection parts of first and second magnetic poles on both sides of the hammer head, each movable block is provided with a magnetic connecting piece on the side facing the pendulum baffle, the magnetic connecting piece being mutually attracted to the corresponding magnetic connection part, the swinging mechanism comprises a return spring, the return spring being connected to the side of the movable block away from the pendulum baffle, and the limit tension of the return spring being greater than the magnetic attraction force between the pendulum baffle and the movable block.
[0007] In some embodiments of this application, a main shaft, a coaxial cam, a motor, and a transmission component are also included. The motor is driven to the coaxial cam, the coaxial cam is driven to the main shaft through the transmission component, and the motor drives the main shaft and the pendulum baffle to rotate through the coaxial cam and the transmission component.
[0008] In some embodiments of this application, the transmission component includes a pull rope, the coaxial cam is provided with a groove for winding or releasing the pull rope, and the main shaft is provided with a winding portion for winding the pull rope.
[0009] In some embodiments of this application, a first baffle is further included, which is disposed inside the housing, and the air outlet is opened on the first baffle. The first baffle is also provided with an arc-shaped guide groove for the movable block to slide.
[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the movable stop is provided with a slider that slides in conjunction with the guide groove, and the center of the guide groove coincides with the axis of the main shaft.
[0011] In some embodiments of this application, a turbine spring is also included, one end of which is connected to the main shaft and the other end is fixed to the first baffle.
[0012] In some embodiments of this application, the mist channel includes a main pipe and at least two branch pipes, the main pipe being connected to the atomizer, and the branch pipes diverting the water mist in the main pipe to at least two of the air outlets.
[0013] In some embodiments of this application, the humidification mechanism further includes an axial fan, which is disposed at the main pipe or the atomizer.
[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the humidification mechanism includes an atomizing seat for holding water, the atomizer being an ultrasonic atomizer disposed within the atomizing seat, and the housing having a water filling channel communicating with the atomizing seat.
[0015] In some embodiments of this application, the front of the housing is provided with a dial component.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the technical solution provided in this application include: This invention utilizes a magnetic element that attracts each other between the pendulum baffle and the movable stop, and connects a return spring with a maximum tensile force greater than the magnetic attraction force to the movable stop. When the pendulum swings, it causes one side of the movable stop to simultaneously block the air outlet. When the pendulum swings to its limit, the return spring, stretched to its limit, instantly pulls the movable stop back, causing its corresponding air outlet to open rapidly, while the other air outlet is simultaneously blocked. This design avoids the response delay problem of traditional valve structures, achieving millisecond-level rapid switching and ensuring that only one air outlet is open throughout the entire swing process. This guarantees the alternation and uniformity of the mist spray, effectively expanding the humidification range. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0021] The purpose of this application is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose a humidifying pendulum clock to solve the technical problem of uneven fog distribution in existing products that combine humidification and timing.
[0022] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: Please see Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a humidifying pendulum clock, the basic structure of which includes a housing 1, a humidifying mechanism disposed inside the housing 1, and a pendulum mechanism.
[0023] The housing 1 provides support and a shell for the entire device, and its front part may be provided with a dial 12 for displaying the time, so that the product has both the appearance and function of a pendulum clock.
[0024] The humidification mechanism is used to generate and deliver water mist. It includes an atomizer 2 and a mist channel connected thereto. At least two (two on the left and right in this embodiment) air outlets 101 are opened at the end of the mist channel.
[0025] The swing mechanism controls the alternating opening and closing of the two air outlets 101. It includes a pendulum baffle 3 and one or more movable stops 4. The pendulum baffle 3 is swingably mounted inside the housing 1 via a main shaft 8, and its shape is similar to the pendulum of a traditional pendulum clock. Each movable stop 4 corresponds to one air outlet 101 and is designed to block or open the air outlet 101 along its movement path.
[0026] The core feature of this invention lies in the ingenious connection and interaction mechanism between the pendulum baffle 3 and the movable stop 4. Specifically, magnets serving as magnetic connecting parts are respectively provided on both sides of the lower end of the pendulum baffle 3, for example, the left side is the S pole (first magnetic pole) and the right side is the N pole (second magnetic pole). Correspondingly, each movable stop 4 also has a magnet serving as a magnetic connecting part on the side facing the pendulum baffle 3, and its magnetic pole is set to attract the corresponding magnetic connecting part of the pendulum baffle 3. For example, the corresponding side of the left movable stop 4 is the N pole, and the corresponding side of the right movable stop 4 is the S pole.
[0027] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The user can check the internal water level by observing the window on the surface of the atomizing base 6. If the water level is insufficient, water is added to the atomizing base 6 through the water filling channel 13 until the ultrasonic atomizer 2 is submerged. After startup, the ultrasonic atomizer 2 generates water mist. Under the action of the axial fan 7, the water mist enters the main pipe 102 and is transported to the two air outlets 101 through the splitter pipe 103.
[0028] In the initial state, assuming that the left hammer head of the pendulum baffle 3 is magnetically attracted to the left movable block 4, thus completely blocking the left air outlet 101, only the right air outlet 101 can spray water mist.
[0029] When the drive system, such as motor 11, starts, it drives the pendulum baffle 3 to swing to the right. During the swing, due to magnetic attraction, the pendulum baffle 3 pulls the movable baffle 801 on the left side to move synchronously to the right, ensuring that the air outlet 101 on the left side is continuously blocked. During this period, the return spring 5 connected to the movable baffle 4 on the left side is gradually stretched, storing elastic potential energy.
[0030] When the pendulum baffle 3 swings to its right limit, its right hammer head contacts and magnetically attracts the right movable stop 4, instantly blocking the right air outlet 101. Almost simultaneously, the return spring 5 of the left movable stop 4 is stretched to its limit, and the resulting tension exceeds the magnetic attraction between it and the hammer head of the pendulum baffle 3. Therefore, the left movable stop 4 instantly breaks free from the pendulum baffle 3 and quickly springs back to its initial position under the tension of the return spring 5, thus completely and quickly releasing the blocked left air outlet 101, and the water vapor is instead ejected from the left air outlet.
[0031] Subsequently, through reverse drive, such as the turbine spring 9, the pendulum baffle 3 begins to swing to the left in the opposite direction, repeating the above process, thereby achieving a cycle in which only one of the two air outlets is always open and sprays alternately.
[0032] Through the above structure, the swing of the pendulum baffle is transformed into precise and rapid switching control of the air outlets. The magnetic connection ensures that the baffle can reliably block one air outlet during the swing, while the ultimate tension design of the return spring ensures that the blocked air outlet can open instantly at the moment of switching, avoiding the problems of mist leakage and incomplete switching caused by slow opening or closing, thus achieving efficient and uniform alternating humidification.
[0033] In one alternative embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the swing mechanism also includes a return spring 5. One end of each return spring 5 is connected to the side of the corresponding movable stop 4 facing away from the pendulum baffle 3, and the other end is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 1 or other fixed parts. The key design is that the ultimate tensile force of the return spring 5 is set to be greater than the magnetic attraction force between the pendulum baffle 3 and the movable stop 4.
[0034] This mechanical relationship is the core of achieving instantaneous switching. It ensures that the pendulum baffle and the movable stop can reliably adhere together throughout the entire movement of the pendulum baffle; only when the pendulum reaches its limit position and the spring is stretched to its limit can the accumulated elastic force overcome the magnetic force and achieve the breaking action, thereby ensuring the instantaneous and thorough opening of the air outlet, and further improving the switching efficiency and airtightness.
[0035] In one embodiment, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the drive system of the present invention includes a main shaft 8, a coaxial cam 10, a motor 11, and a transmission component. The pendulum baffle 3 is fixed on the main shaft 8. The coaxial cam 10 is driven by the motor 11. The transmission component is used to transmit the motion of the coaxial cam 10 to the main shaft 8. Specifically, the motor 11 drives the coaxial cam 10 to rotate, and the coaxial cam 10 then drives the main shaft 8 to rotate through the transmission component, thereby causing the pendulum baffle 3 to swing at a preset angle. In addition, the outer peripheral contour of the coaxial cam 10 can be designed to be non-circular. Through a segmented torque design, its pulling speed on the transmission component is different at different rotation angles, thereby offsetting the influence of gravity on the pendulum baffle 3 at different swing positions and making its swing speed more uniform.
[0036] The combination of motor, cam, and transmission components provides a stable and reliable power source for the regular oscillation of the pendulum baffle. In particular, the introduction of the coaxial cam optimizes the smoothness of the oscillation, ensures a stable mist spray rhythm, and avoids localized excessively high or low humidity caused by uneven oscillation speed.
[0037] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the transmission component can specifically be a pull rope. The coaxial cam 10 is provided with a groove for winding or releasing the pull rope, while the main shaft 8 is provided with a winding part for winding the pull rope. When the motor 11 starts, it drives the coaxial cam 10 to rotate, winding the pull rope. The other end of the pull rope pulls the winding part on the main shaft 8, thereby causing the main shaft 8 and the pendulum baffle 3 to rotate.
[0038] Using a pull rope as a transmission component results in a simple structure, low cost, easy installation and maintenance, and the ability to effectively and flexibly transmit motion while reducing rigid impact.
[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention may further include a first baffle 104, which is fixedly disposed inside the housing 1. Two air outlets 101 are formed on the first baffle 104. Furthermore, the first baffle 104 is also provided with an arc-shaped guide groove 106 for sliding of the movable stop 4.
[0040] The first baffle 104 provides a structural reference for the movement of the air outlet and the movable stop. The guide groove 106 precisely constrains the movement trajectory of the movable stop 4, ensuring that it can accurately and smoothly cover or leave the air outlet 101 during movement, preventing deviation or jamming.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, the movable stop 4 is provided with a slider 107 that slides in conjunction with the guide groove 106. In order to ensure that the moving trajectory of the movable stop 4 perfectly matches the swing arc of the pendulum baffle 3, the center of the guide groove 106 coincides with the axis of the main shaft 8 (i.e., the rotation origin of the pendulum baffle 3).
[0042] The cooperation between slider 107 and arc-shaped guide groove 106 forms a precise guide pair, which greatly reduces the friction when the movable stop moves, making its movement smoother. The design that the center of guide groove 106 coincides with the axis of main shaft 8 geometrically ensures that the relative position between movable stop 4 and the hammer head of pendulum baffle 3 remains constant during movement, thereby ensuring the continuity and reliability of the blocking effect.
[0043] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, to achieve the reciprocating motion of the pendulum baffle 3, a worm gear spring 9 can also be provided on the main shaft 8. One end of the worm gear spring 9 is connected to the main shaft 8, and the other end is fixed to the first baffle 104 or other fixed parts of the housing 1. When the motor 11 drives the main shaft 8 to rotate to one side (for example, during the process of pulling the pendulum), the worm gear spring 9 will be compressed or tightened synchronously, storing elastic potential energy. When the motor 11 stops driving, the worm gear spring 9 will quickly release its stored energy, driving the main shaft 8 and the pendulum baffle 3 to swing in the opposite direction.
[0044] The introduction of the turbine spring cleverly utilizes the energy from the unidirectional drive process to provide power for the reverse motion, simplifies the drive control logic (eliminating the need for motor reversal), realizes the automatic reciprocating swing of the pendulum baffle, and can further accelerate the alternating closing process of the air outlet.
[0045] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the structure of the humidification mechanism is detailed. The mist channel specifically includes a main pipe 102 and at least two branch pipes 103. One end of the main pipe 102 is connected to the mist outlet of the atomizer 2, and the other end is connected to the branch pipes 103. The branch pipes 103 have a Y-shaped or T-shaped structure, and their function is to evenly distribute the water mist delivered from the main pipe 102 to the two outlets 101. Furthermore, to improve mist delivery efficiency, the humidification mechanism also includes an axial fan 7, which is preferably located at the inlet of the main pipe 102 or near the atomizer 2, to force the water mist into the mist channel by generating airflow.
[0046] This structure establishes a complete and efficient mist generation and delivery path. The addition of an axial fan ensures that the water mist can overcome pipe resistance and its own gravity, and be continuously and quickly delivered to the air outlet, guaranteeing the immediate response and sufficient mist volume of the humidification function.
[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, the second baffle 105 isolates the main shaft 8, turbine spring 9, coaxial cam 10, motor 11 of the swing mechanism from the main pipe 102 and the diverter pipe 103 of the humidification mechanism in the rear view.
[0048] In one embodiment, the motor 11 is directly connected to the pendulum baffle 3 for driving.
[0049] In another embodiment, since the magnitude of the gravitational resistance to the pendulum baffle 3 varies depending on its position, and the pendulum baffle 3 is also affected by both magnetic and elastic forces during its movement, the load changes during the swing. For example, the gravitational load is relatively large at both ends of the arc trajectory. The gravitational load is relatively small in the middle of the arc trajectory. Just after the axis of the pendulum baffle 3 passes the midpoint of the arc trajectory, the elastic resistance at one end has disengaged, and it is attracted by the magnetic force at the other end, resulting in a relatively small total load. Before reaching the midpoint of the arc trajectory, the elastic resistance at one end approaches its maximum value, while the magnetic force at the other end is relatively small, resulting in a relatively large total load.
[0050] If the motor 11 is directly connected to the pendulum baffle 3 for driving, the change in load will cause the motor 11 to need to increase torque and decrease speed. The decrease in speed will reduce the closing and opening speed of the pendulum baffle 3 at the air outlet 101, thus reducing the uniformity of the humidification vortex ring and affecting production efficiency. Since the radii of the upper and lower large cams and the small cam of the coaxial cam 10 are not fixed, the ratio of the radii of the two cams (i.e., the transmission ratio) changes with the load of the pendulum baffle 3 during movement. Therefore, it is only necessary to pre-set the speed of the motor 11. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the total load of the pendulum baffle 3 is relatively large, the set speed of the motor 11 is at a relatively high value; when the total load of the pendulum baffle 3 is relatively small, the set speed of the motor 11 is at a relatively low value. Correspondingly, when the total load of the pendulum baffle 3 is relatively large, the cam radius of the coaxial cam 10 involved in the transmission is larger with the pull rope adjustment; when the total load of the pendulum baffle 3 is relatively small, the cam radius of the coaxial cam 10 involved in the transmission is smaller with the pull rope adjustment. This allows the motor 11 to maintain the pendulum baffle 3 at a constant speed under a fixed torque, thus reducing the torque requirements of the motor.
[0051] like Figure 7 As shown, the water source portion of the humidification mechanism is detailed. The humidification mechanism includes an atomizing base 6, which is essentially a water storage container for holding the water required for humidification. The atomizer 2 is preferably an ultrasonic atomizer, with its vibration unit located at the bottom of the atomizing base 6. For user convenience, the housing 1 is also specially provided with a water filling channel 13 that communicates with the interior of the atomizing base 6, and its exterior is usually equipped with a flip cover or plug.
[0052] The ultrasonic atomizer offers advantages such as rapid mist production, fine mist particles, quiet operation, and low energy consumption. An independent water filling channel 13 allows users to conveniently replenish the pendulum clock externally without disassembling the device, greatly enhancing ease of use and user experience.
[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to realize the complete pendulum clock function, a dial component 12 is provided at the front of the housing 1. The dial component 12 may include traditional clock elements such as scales and hands, and its timing movement can be separated from or integrated with the humidification function's drive system.
[0054] By cleverly integrating the humidification function into the classic form of a traditional pendulum clock, the product is not only a functional environmental appliance, but also a piece of home art with decorative and timekeeping functions, combining practicality and aesthetic value, and significantly enhancing the product's added value.
[0055] To enhance the product's intelligence, the present invention may further include a humidity sensor and a controller 111. The controller 111 is electrically connected to the humidity sensor, the atomizer 2, and the motor 11. The controller 111 is configured to compare the real-time ambient humidity detected by the humidity sensor with a user-preset target humidity, and automatically adjust the operating frequency of the motor 11 (thereby changing the swing speed of the pendulum baffle 3) and / or the atomization power of the ultrasonic atomizer 2 based on the difference. For example, when the ambient humidity is far below the target value, the controller drives the motor to run at full speed and makes the atomizer work at full power; when the humidity is close to the target value, it reduces the motor speed and atomization volume to achieve smooth and energy-saving constant humidity control.
[0056] This embodiment enables the humidifying pendulum clock to have an intelligent constant humidity function, which can actively adapt to environmental changes and automatically maintain a comfortable and stable indoor humidity. This avoids the trouble of frequent manual adjustments and the waste of energy due to over-humidification, greatly improving the product's intelligence level and user experience.
[0057] To enhance the product's functionality, a detachable aromatherapy module can be installed within the distributor pipe 103, on each branch leading to the air outlet 101. This module can be an aromatherapy box filled with a porous ceramic or polymer fiber carrier to absorb essential oils. Users can easily remove the aromatherapy box and add their favorite essential oils.
[0058] This design adds aromatherapy functionality to the product without polluting the water source or the atomizer. More uniquely, by utilizing the alternating mist output characteristic of this invention, users can add different types of essential oils to the aromatherapy modules on both sides, thereby achieving the alternating release of two fragrances and creating a richer and more personalized spatial atmosphere, greatly expanding the product's usage scenarios.
[0059] To ensure user health, a set of ultraviolet germicidal lamps (such as UV-C LED beads) can be installed inside the main pipe 102 along the path of the water mist flow. When the water mist flows through this area, it will be fully irradiated by ultraviolet light, thereby killing bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms that may be carried in the water mist.
[0060] This design adds an active sterilization function to the output mist, effectively solving the health hazards of "secondary pollution" that may exist in traditional humidifiers. It ensures that every wisp of water mist is clean and healthy, which is especially important for families with elderly people, children, or vulnerable groups, significantly improving the product's health and safety attributes.
[0061] As an upgrade or alternative to the mechanical drive system, the pendulum baffle 3 can be driven by an electromagnetic drive system. This system eliminates the motor 11, coaxial cam 10, and pull rope, replacing them with permanent magnets mounted on the pendulum rod or hammer head of the pendulum baffle 3, and electromagnetic coils positioned at both ends of its swing stroke on the inner side of the housing 1. The controller 111 precisely controls the direction and timing of the current flowing through the two coils, alternately generating thrust or attraction, thereby directly driving the pendulum baffle 3 to reciprocate.
[0062] The use of non-contact electromagnetic drive completely eliminates the wear and noise associated with mechanical transmission, resulting in quieter operation and a longer lifespan. Furthermore, the electromagnetic drive offers fast response and high control precision, allowing for more flexible adjustment of the oscillation amplitude and frequency, thus enhancing product performance and durability.
[0063] To achieve more user-friendly intelligent control, the controller 111 can integrate a real-time clock (RTC) module and a light sensor. The controller is programmed to automatically switch between different humidification modes based on the acquired time information or the detected ambient light intensity. For example, a "daytime standard mode" (runs at full power during the day or when light is strong) and a "nighttime sleep mode" (automatically reduces the amount of mist, slows down the oscillation frequency, and dims or turns off the indicator lights at night or when light is weak) can be preset.
[0064] This design intelligently links the humidification function with the user's daily routine and environment, enabling automatic operation in different time periods and scenarios. It meets the differentiated needs of users in different scenarios such as work, rest, and sleep, without manual intervention, making the product truly intelligent, considerate, and energy-saving, reflecting a higher level of humanized design.
[0065] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the technical solution provided in this application include: 1. Uniform and efficient humidification: Through a unique alternating spray mechanical structure, the problem of uneven local humidity caused by single-point misting is fundamentally solved, and the mist is evenly distributed over a larger area.
[0066] 2. Ingenious and reliable structure: By cleverly counteracting magnetic force and spring force, the valve switching function is achieved quickly and without delay. The structure is simple yet effective and highly reliable.
[0067] 3. High integration of functions: The product seamlessly integrates efficient humidification, aromatherapy, sterilization and intelligent control modes into the classic pendulum clock design, combining practicality, decoration, health and intelligence, which greatly enhances the overall value and market competitiveness of the product.
[0068] 4. Smooth and quiet operation: Through coaxial cam or electromagnetic drive design, the smoothness of the swing is optimized, the operating noise is reduced, and the user experience is improved.
[0069] Those skilled in the art will understand that the steps, measures, and schemes in the various operations, methods, processes, and procedures discussed in this application can be alternated, modified, rearranged, decomposed, combined, or deleted.
[0070] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this application.
