Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of dehumidifier technology, and in particular to a dehumidifier and dehumidification system. Background Technology

[0002] In existing dehumidification equipment, the air outlet grille and the display touch control board are integrated into one structure. The grille contains circuits and PCB boards, which cannot be immersed in water. Only the outer surface can be wiped clean. It is difficult to clean the dirt in the mesh and deep in the air duct. Long-term use can easily breed bacteria and cause air duct blockage, resulting in problems such as continuous reduction of air volume and increased operating noise. At the same time, the fan blades, motor and volute adopt a multi-layer closed assembly structure. If the internal components are to be cleaned, the entire air duct shell needs to be disassembled. Ordinary consumers cannot complete the disassembly and assembly operation independently. Moreover, the fan blades usually cannot be completely detached from the body. There are a lot of cleaning dead corners in the blade gaps, making it difficult to wash and remove scale with water. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application aims to address at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes a dehumidifier and dehumidification system that allows ordinary consumers to easily disassemble the top cover and fan blade unit for soaking and washing during daily use, thereby achieving better and more comprehensive cleaning.

[0004] A dehumidifier according to a first aspect of this application includes a dehumidifier body, a top cover, and a fan assembly. The dehumidifier body has an air inlet. The top cover is detachably fitted onto the top of the dehumidifier body and has a first limiting rib and an air outlet. The dehumidifier body has a first limiting opening adapted to the first limiting rib, and the first limiting rib and the first limiting opening are detachably slidably engaged. The fan assembly includes a first drive unit, a fan blade unit, and a mounting bracket. The first drive unit is disposed on the mounting bracket, which is detachably disposed on the dehumidifier body and located between the dehumidifier body and the top cover. The fan blade unit is detachably connected to the output end of the first drive unit. The first drive unit is used to drive the fan blade unit to rotate, so as to drive gas to flow from the air inlet to the air outlet.

[0005] The dehumidifier according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: The dehumidifier body is used to remove moisture from the air; the top cover is located on the top of the dehumidifier body, and the top cover has an air outlet. Because the dry air after dehumidification and heating has a lower density and a tendency to rise, the top air outlet allows the dry airflow to diffuse along the entire ceiling, thereby replacing the lower layer of high-humidity air in the room from top to bottom through natural convection. Simultaneously, the top air outlet also avoids the discomfort caused by dry, hot air blowing directly on the human body; the first limiting rib and the first limiting opening facilitate easier removal of the top cover from the dehumidifier body for cleaning by ordinary consumers; electrical components and conductive lines are all located on the dehumidifier body, while the top cover has no electrical components, conductive lines, or electrical connection to the dehumidifier body, making cleaning easier for ordinary consumers. In addition to surface cleaning, the top cover can also be soaked for cleaning to better remove accumulated dirt from the air outlet. The mounting bracket is used to fix the fan blade unit and the first drive unit. The mounting bracket is detachable and located between the top cover and the dehumidifier body, so that after removing the top cover, the fan blade unit and the first drive unit can be exposed for subsequent disassembly. The detachable connection between the fan blade unit and the first drive unit allows the fan blade unit to be removed independently for soaking and cleaning to better remove dirt accumulated on the fan blade unit, avoiding the situation in traditional technology where the fan blade unit and drive unit are integrated, resulting in only surface wiping. The first drive unit is used to drive the fan blade unit to rotate, so that air enters from the air inlet, passes through the dehumidifier body, and then flows out from the air outlet to achieve the air dehumidification operation.

[0006] According to some embodiments of this application, the first limiting rib includes a bent portion and a first guide portion, one end of the bent portion is connected to the top cover, and the first guide portion is disposed at the other end of the bent portion.

[0007] According to some embodiments of this application, the top cover is further provided with a second limiting rib, and the dehumidifier body is further provided with a limiting part adapted to the second limiting rib. The second limiting rib and the limiting part limit each other, and the second limiting rib is further provided with a second guide part.

[0008] According to some embodiments of this application, the top cover is further provided with a first mounting hole, and the dehumidifier body is further provided with a second mounting hole adapted to the first mounting hole. The first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are detachably connected by screws.

[0009] According to some embodiments of this application, the fan blade unit is provided with a third mounting hole, and the output end of the first drive unit passes through the third mounting hole and is connected to the lock nut.

[0010] According to some embodiments of this application, the rotation direction of the fan blade unit is the same as the tightening direction of the locking nut.

[0011] According to some embodiments of this application, the first drive unit is detachably connected to the mounting bracket, and a rubber shock-absorbing pad is provided between the first drive unit and the mounting bracket.

[0012] According to some embodiments of this application, the dehumidifier body includes a shell and a heat exchange assembly. The heat exchange assembly is disposed inside the shell and includes a condenser. The condenser is located below the fan blade unit and has a bent structure. The inner diameter of the air inlet of the fan blade unit is greater than or equal to the bent inner diameter of the condenser.

[0013] According to some embodiments of this application, a moving unit is also included, which is disposed at the bottom of the dehumidifier body.

[0014] The dehumidification system according to a second aspect embodiment of this application includes: The dehumidifier according to the first aspect of this application.

[0015] The dehumidification system according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: A dehumidifier body is provided to remove moisture from the air; a top cover is located on top of the dehumidifier body, and an air outlet is provided on the top cover. Since the dry air after dehumidification and heating has a lower density and a tendency to rise, the top air outlet allows the dry airflow to diffuse along the entire ceiling, thereby replacing the lower layer of high-humidity air in the room from top to bottom through natural convection. Simultaneously, the top air outlet also avoids the discomfort caused by dry, hot air blowing directly on the human body; the first limiting rib and the first limiting opening facilitate easier removal of the top cover from the dehumidifier body for cleaning by ordinary consumers; electrical components and conductive lines are all located on the dehumidifier body, while the top cover has no electrical components, conductive lines, or electrical connection to the dehumidifier body, allowing ordinary consumers to clean not only the surface but also the interior of the top cover. Soaking and cleaning are performed to better remove accumulated dirt from the air outlet. The mounting bracket is used to fix the fan blade unit and the first drive unit. The mounting bracket is detachably located between the top cover and the dehumidifier body, so that after the top cover is removed, the fan blade unit and the first drive unit can be exposed for subsequent disassembly. The detachable engagement of the fan blade unit and the first drive unit allows the fan blade unit to be disassembled independently for soaking and cleaning, so as to better remove the dirt accumulated on the fan blade unit, avoiding the situation in traditional technology where the fan blade unit and the drive unit are integrated, resulting in only surface wiping. The first drive unit is used to drive the fan blade unit to rotate, so that the air enters from the air inlet, passes through the dehumidifier body, and then flows out from the air outlet to achieve the air dehumidification operation. By introducing the dehumidifier of this application, users can more easily disassemble and clean the air outlet and the fan blades.

[0023] Currently, in existing dehumidifiers, the air outlet grille and the display touch control board are integrated into a single structure. The grille contains wiring and a PCB board, making it waterproof and allowing only the outer surface to be wiped clean. Dirt deep within the mesh and air duct (270mm) is difficult to clean, leading to bacterial growth over time and blockage of the air duct (270mm), resulting in a continuous decrease in airflow and increased operating noise. Furthermore, the fan blades, motor, and volute use a multi-layered, enclosed assembly structure. Cleaning internal components requires disassembling the entire air duct (270mm) housing, which is beyond the capabilities of ordinary consumers. The fan blades are also often not completely detached from the unit, leaving numerous cleaning dead zones in the blade crevices, making water washing and descaling difficult. Additionally, the air outlet of existing dehumidifiers is usually located on the side wall, allowing the dry, hot air after dehumidification to blow directly onto the user, causing discomfort such as dry skin.

[0024] Based on this, this application proposes a dehumidifier and dehumidification system, which aims to enable ordinary consumers to disassemble the top cover and fan blade unit themselves for soaking and washing during daily use, thereby achieving better and more comprehensive cleaning; at the same time, the air outlet is located on the top cover to guide the dry and hot air after dehumidification to be discharged vertically upward, thereby avoiding direct blowing on the human body, making it more suitable for long-term living scenarios such as bedrooms, dressing rooms, and studies, and improving the user experience.

[0025] It is understood that the dehumidifier of the first aspect embodiment of this application includes a dehumidifier body, a top cover 100, and a fan assembly. The dehumidifier body is provided with an air inlet 120. The top cover 100 is detachably covered on the top of the dehumidifier body. The top cover 100 is provided with a first limiting rib and an air outlet 101. The dehumidifier body is provided with a first limiting port 150 adapted to the first limiting rib. The first limiting rib and the first limiting port 150 are detachably slidably engaged. The fan assembly includes a first drive unit 170, a fan blade unit 180, and a mounting bracket 160. The first drive unit 170 is disposed on the mounting bracket 160. The mounting bracket 160 is detachably disposed on the dehumidifier body and located between the dehumidifier body and the top cover 100. The fan blade unit 180 is detachably connected to the output end of the first drive unit 170. The first drive unit 170 is used to drive the fan blade unit 180 to rotate, so as to drive the gas to flow from the air inlet 120 to the air outlet 101.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the dehumidifier in this embodiment are as follows: The dehumidifier body is designed to remove moisture from the air; the top cover 100 is located on top of the dehumidifier body, and the top cover 100 has an air outlet 101. Since the dry air after dehumidification and heating has a lower density and a tendency to rise, the top outlet allows the dry airflow to diffuse along the entire ceiling, thereby replacing the lower layer of high-humidity air in the room from top to bottom through natural convection. Simultaneously, the top outlet also avoids the discomfort caused by dry, hot air blowing directly on the human body; the first limiting rib and the first limiting opening 150 facilitate easy removal of the top cover 100 from the dehumidifier body for cleaning by ordinary consumers; electrical components and conductive lines are all located on the dehumidifier body, while the top cover 100 has no electrical components, conductive lines, or electrical connection to the dehumidifier body, allowing ordinary consumers to not only clean the surface but also soak the top cover 100. Soaking and cleaning are performed to better remove the dirt accumulated on the air outlet 101; the mounting bracket 160 is used to fix the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170, and the mounting bracket 160 is detachably located between the top cover 100 and the dehumidifier body, so that after the top cover 100 is removed, the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170 can be exposed for subsequent disassembly; the detachable engagement of the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170 allows the fan blade unit 180 to be removed independently for soaking and cleaning, so as to better remove the dirt accumulated on the fan blade unit 180, avoiding the situation in the traditional technology where the fan blade unit 180 and the drive unit are integrated, resulting in only surface wiping; the first drive unit 170 is used to drive the fan blade unit 180 to rotate, so that the air enters from the air inlet 120, passes through the dehumidifier body, and then flows out from the air outlet 101 to achieve the dehumidification operation.

[0027] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 9 and Figure 10In this embodiment, the top cover 100 is made of plastic, and multiple air outlets 101 are provided. The perforation rate of the top cover 100 is between 55% and 70%, for example, 65%; the spacing between the air outlets 101 is between 8 and 12 mm, for example, 10 mm; the thickness of the air outlets 101 is between 2.5 and 3.5 mm, for example, 3 mm; and the length of the air outlets 101 is ≤80 mm. This parameter range can effectively avoid problems such as the air outlets 101 being too thin and easily deformed, the top cover 100 having too low an opening rate and thus obstructing the wind, and the top cover 100 having too high an opening rate and thus insufficient structural strength. The dehumidifier body includes a shell, with a top cover 100 fitting over one end of the shell. The top cover 100 has first limiting ribs on opposite sides. The shell is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, including a base plate 114 and first side walls 110, 111, 112, and 113 connected end-to-end to the periphery of the base plate 114. The first side walls 110 and 112 are opposite to each other, as are the second and fourth side walls 111 and 113. A first side plate 1101 extends from the end of the first side wall 110 near the top cover 100 towards the third side wall 112, and a second side plate 1121 extends from the end of the third side wall 112 near the top cover 100 towards the first side wall 110. Both the first and second side plates 1101 and 1121 have ribs adapted to the first limiting ribs. The first limiting opening 150 and the first limiting rib correspond one-to-one. After the first limiting rib passes through the first limiting opening 150, the top cover 100 can be slid along the first horizontal direction to achieve a sliding engagement between the first limiting opening 150 and the first limiting rib. At this time, if an attempt is made to separate the top cover 100 from the shell, the first limiting rib will abut against the inner wall of the corresponding first side plate 1101 or the inner wall of the second side plate 1121, making it impossible to separate the top cover 100 from the shell. When it is necessary to remove the top cover 100, it is only necessary to slide the top cover 100 horizontally in the opposite direction to the first direction, so that the first limiting rib moves back to below the first limiting opening 150. At this time, the user drives the top cover 100 vertically upward to drive the first limiting rib through the first limiting opening 150 so as to separate the top cover 100. An installation plate 200 is provided inside the housing, forming a first receiving groove between the installation plate 200 and the top cover 100. An air duct 270 is provided within the first receiving groove and is mounted on the installation plate 200. The integrated design of the installation plate 200 and the air duct 270 provides good sealing, effectively gathers airflow, and reduces air volume loss. A mounting bracket 160 is detachably mounted on the side of the air duct 270 near the top cover 100 via bolts. A first drive unit 170 is a motor, detachably mounted on the mounting bracket 160. The output end of the first drive unit 170 is detachably connected to a fan blade unit 180, which is located within the air duct 270. Air inlets 120 are provided on the first side wall 110, the second side wall 111, and the third side wall 112 to achieve 270° air intake.The housing is equipped with a display module 130, which includes a display screen, touch buttons, indicator lights, etc. The main control module 240 is located on the side of the mounting plate 200 away from the air duct 270. The main control module 240 is electrically connected to the display module 130. The top cover 100 has no electrical connection to the dehumidifier body and contains no live components, allowing it to be removed for soaking and cleaning. This effectively removes dirt from the air outlet 101 and completely eliminates safety hazards such as water ingress, short circuits, leakage, and component damage during washing. Similarly, after removing the top cover 100, it can be... With the fan assembly exposed, the user can first remove the mounting bracket 160, and then disassemble the fan blade unit 180. This allows for a comprehensive cleaning of the fan blade unit 180, including the front and back of the blades, the blade gaps, and the outer ring of the blades. It can also be directly soaked in clean water for a thorough washing, thereby completely removing stubborn dust, oil, mold, and other stains from the blades. Compared to the traditional integrated design of the fan blades and motor, this method can better remove dirt from the fan blade unit 180. After the fan assembly is disassembled, the interior of the air duct 270 is exposed, at which point the user can clean and wipe the interior of the air duct 270.

[0028] In other embodiments, reference is made to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the top cover 100 is made of sheet metal, and multiple air outlets 101 are provided on the top cover 100. The air outlets 101 can be any shape of hexagon, square, rectangle, or circle, and are arranged in a matrix on the top cover 100. The perforation rate of the top cover 100 is preferably 45% to 60%, for example, 55%. Compared with plastic materials, the perforation rate is reduced to meet the structural rigidity requirements of sheet metal materials and to prevent the top cover 100 from collapsing and deforming.

[0029] It should be noted that the fan blade unit 180 can flexibly select either a mixed-flow fan blade or a backward centrifugal fan blade according to the air volume and air pressure requirements.

[0030] It is understood that the first limiting rib includes a bent portion 103 and a first guide portion 104. One end of the bent portion 103 is connected to the top cover 100, and the first guide portion 104 is located at the other end of the bent portion 103.

[0031] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10In this embodiment, there is a gap between the bent portion 103 and the top cover 100. When the first limiting rib and the first limiting port 150 are engaged, the first side plate 1101 or the second side plate 1121 is located within the gap. One end of the bent portion 103 is connected to the top cover 100, and the other end is provided with a first guide portion 104 on the side near the top cover 100. The first guide portion 104 is a guide rib. The setting of the first guide portion 104 makes it easier for the first limiting rib and the first limiting port 150 to engage, so as to achieve automatic alignment, anti-displacement and anti-jamming during the assembly process, thereby greatly reducing the assembly difficulty and improving the assembly accuracy.

[0032] It should be noted that: when the top cover 100 is made of plastic, the length of the bent portion 103 is preferably 8 to 15 mm, and the length of the first guide portion 104 is preferably 3 to 5 mm. Specifically, the length of the bent portion 103 can be 12 mm, and the length of the first guide portion 104 can be 4 mm. When the top cover 100 is made of sheet metal, the length of the bent portion 103 is preferably 6 to 12 mm, the length of the portion connecting the bent portion 103 and the top cover 100 is preferably 8 to 15 mm, and the length of the first guide portion 104 is preferably 3 to 5 mm. The lengths of the second limiting rib 105 and the second guide portion 106 are both preferably 5 to 8 mm. Specifically, the length of the bent portion 103 can be 10 mm, the length of the portion connecting the bent portion 103 and the top cover 100 can be 12 mm, the length of the first guide portion 104 can be 4 mm, and the lengths of the second limiting rib 105 and the second guide portion 106 are both 6 mm.

[0033] It is understandable that: the top cover 100 is also provided with a second limiting rib 105, and the dehumidifier body is also provided with a limiting part 131 that is adapted to the second limiting rib 105. The second limiting rib 105 and the limiting part 131 are matched for limiting. The second limiting rib 105 is also provided with a second guide part 106.

[0034] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 In this embodiment, the limiting part 131 is provided on the side of the display module 130 near the top cover 100. When the top cover 100 is made of plastic, the limiting part 131 is in the shape of a groove. The second limiting rib 105 is provided with a second guide part 106 at the end away from the top cover 100 to guide the second limiting rib 105 to more easily cooperate with the limiting part 131, that is, to guide the second limiting rib 105 into the limiting part 131. The setting of the second limiting rib 105 and the limiting part 131 facilitates further limiting and fixing of the top cover 100 to prevent the top cover 100 from shifting. At the same time, it also further realizes the automatic alignment of the top cover 100 during assembly.

[0035] In other embodiments, reference is made to Figure 7 and Figure 8In this embodiment, when the top cover 100 is made of sheet metal, the limiting part 131 can be an elongated hole (not shown in the attached drawings). The end of the second limiting rib 105 furthest from the top cover 100 is provided with a second guide part 106. The second guide part 106 guides the second limiting rib 105 through the limiting part 131, achieving a limiting engagement with the limiting part 131. The limiting part 131 can also be a groove. During installation, the second guide part 106 guides the second limiting rib 105 into the limiting part 131 to limit the top cover 100, thereby preventing the top cover 100 from shifting.

[0036] It is understandable that the top cover 100 is also provided with a first mounting hole 102, and the dehumidifier body is also provided with a second mounting hole that is adapted to the first mounting hole 102. The first mounting hole 102 and the second mounting hole are detachably connected by screws.

[0037] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 In this embodiment, the top cover 100 is provided with a first mounting hole 102 on the side away from the display module 130, and the fourth side wall 113 is provided with a second mounting hole (not shown in the figure) that is adapted to the first mounting hole 102 at the end near the top cover 100. The first mounting hole 102 and the second mounting hole are detachably connected by countersunk screws to further fix the top cover 100.

[0038] It is understandable that the fan blade unit 180 is provided with a third mounting hole 181, and the output end of the first drive unit 170 passes through the third mounting hole 181 and is connected to the locking nut 182.

[0039] For example, in some embodiments, referring to FIG4, in this embodiment, the blade unit is provided with a third mounting hole 181 adapted to the output end of the first drive unit 170. The output end of the first drive unit 170 is inserted into the third mounting hole 181. After the output end of the first drive unit 170 passes through the third mounting hole 181, it is fastened by a locking nut 182. The output end of the first drive unit 170 is a D-shaped shaft, so as to utilize the circumferential limiting and foolproof characteristics of the D-shaped shaft to completely eliminate problems such as idling and deviation during the high-speed rotation of the blade unit 180, so as to ensure stable and efficient power transmission.

[0040] It is understandable that the rotation direction of the fan blade unit 180 is the same as the tightening direction of the locking nut 182.

[0041] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4In this embodiment, the first drive unit 170 drives the fan blade unit 180 to rotate in the same direction as the tightening direction of the locking nut 182, so as to ensure that during the long-term high-speed operation of the fan blade unit 180, the locking nut 182 can be dynamically self-locked by relying on the rotational inertia of the fan blade unit 180, thus avoiding the nut from loosening, falling off, making abnormal noises due to long-term vibration.

[0042] It is understood that the first drive unit 170 is detachably connected to the mounting bracket 160, and a rubber shock-absorbing pad 190 is provided between the first drive unit 170 and the mounting bracket 160.

[0043] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the first drive unit 170 is detachably mounted on the side of the mounting bracket 160 near the air duct 270 via bolts. A rubber shock-absorbing pad 190 is provided between the first drive unit 170 and the mounting bracket 160 to effectively attenuate the high-frequency vibration and noise generated by the high-speed operation of the first drive unit 170 and the fan blade unit 180, and to block the vibration from being transmitted to the housing and the air duct 270. At the same time, it also avoids structural wear and loosening caused by hard metal contact, reduces operating noise, and extends service life.

[0044] It is understood that the dehumidifier body includes a shell and a heat exchange component. The heat exchange component is located inside the shell and includes a condenser 220. The condenser 220 is located below the fan blade unit 180. The condenser 220 has a bent structure, and the inner diameter of the air inlet of the fan blade unit 180 is greater than or equal to the bent inner diameter of the condenser 220.

[0045] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 and Figure 6In this embodiment, the dehumidifier body also includes a compressor 260, a water tray 210, and a water tank 250. The water tray 210 is located inside the housing and below the mounting plate 200. A second receiving groove is formed between the water tray 210 and the mounting plate 200, and a third receiving groove is formed between the water tray 210 and the base plate 114. The water tank 250 and the compressor 260 are located in the third receiving groove, and the heat exchanger is located in the second receiving groove. The heat exchanger also includes an evaporator 230. The compressor 260 is connected to the condenser 220 and the evaporator 230 respectively to ensure the normal operation of the condenser 220 and the evaporator 230. Both the evaporator 230 and the condenser 220 have U-shaped bent structures, and their openings face the fourth side wall 113. The evaporator 230 is located in... The outer wall of the condenser 220 and the inner wall of the condenser 220 form a flow channel 221. The water receiving tray 210 is provided with a first opening. The water tank 250 is connected to the second receiving tank through the first opening. The fan blade unit 180 is located above the flow channel 221. The mounting plate 200 is provided with a second opening. The flow channel 221 is connected to the fan blade unit 180 through the second opening. The inner diameter of the air inlet of the fan blade unit 180 (i.e., the first inner diameter marked) is greater than or equal to the bending inner diameter of the condenser 220 (i.e., the second inner diameter marked) to ensure that the flow channel 221 falls entirely within the coverage area of ​​the air inlet of the fan blade unit 180, thereby eliminating the obstruction of the air intake by the heat exchanger structure, reducing the turbine resistance on the air intake side, maximizing the suction capacity of the fan assembly, reducing air volume loss, and making the airflow smoother. The specific operating principle is as follows: Air enters the second receiving tank through the air inlet 120. The air first passes through the evaporator 230, where the moisture in the air condenses into water droplets, which fall onto the water collection tray 210 and enter the water tank 250 through the first inlet to be collected. The air then passes through the condenser 220 to be heated, thereby restoring it to a dry state close to room temperature. Finally, the air is discharged after passing through the flow channel 221, the fan blade unit 180, the air duct 270 and the air outlet 101 in sequence, so as to achieve air dehumidification.

[0046] It is understood that the dehumidifier in this embodiment of the application also includes a moving unit 140, which is located at the bottom of the dehumidifier body.

[0047] For example, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the moving unit 140 is located at the four corners of the bottom of the base plate 114 to improve the flexibility of the dehumidifier of this application, thereby expanding the scope of application.

[0048] The dehumidification system according to the second aspect of the application includes the dehumidifier of the first aspect of the application described above.

[0049] According to the device of this application embodiment, the dehumidifier body is provided for removing moisture from the air; a top cover 100 is provided on the top of the dehumidifier body, and an air outlet 101 is provided on the top cover 100. Since the dry air after dehumidification and heating has a lower density and has the characteristic of floating, the top air outlet can allow the dry airflow to diffuse along the entire ceiling, thereby replacing the high humidity air in the lower layer of the room from top to bottom by natural convection. At the same time, the top air outlet can also avoid the discomfort caused by dry hot air blowing directly on the human body; the setting of the first limiting rib and the first limiting port 150 makes it easier for ordinary consumers to remove the top cover 100 from the dehumidifier body for cleaning; electrical components and conductive lines are all located on the dehumidifier body, while the top cover 100 has no electrical components, conductive lines, or electrical connection to the dehumidifier body. This design allows ordinary consumers to not only clean the surface, but also soak the top cover 100 for cleaning, so as to better remove the moisture accumulated on the air outlet 101. The mounting bracket 160 is used to fix the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170. The mounting bracket 160 is detachably located between the top cover 100 and the dehumidifier body, so that after the top cover 100 is removed, the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170 can be exposed for subsequent disassembly. The detachable engagement of the fan blade unit 180 and the first drive unit 170 allows the fan blade unit 180 to be disassembled independently for soaking and cleaning, so as to better remove the dirt accumulated on the fan blade unit 180, avoiding the situation in the traditional technology where the fan blade unit 180 and the drive unit are integrated, resulting in only surface wiping. The first drive unit 170 is used to drive the fan blade unit 180 to rotate, so that the air enters from the air inlet 120, passes through the dehumidifier body, and then flows out from the air outlet 101 to achieve the dehumidification operation. By introducing the dehumidifier of this application, it is easier for users to disassemble and clean the air outlet 101 and the fan blade.
