[0002] The cigar cabinet is used to store cigars and provide suitable temperature and humidity for cigars to facilitate the fermentation and maturation of cigars, maintain the fermentation process, and prevent moth and mildew.

[0003] In the related art, a cigar cabinet includes a cabinet body and a humidifying device. A storage room is defined in the cabinet body, and the storage room is used to store cigars. The humidifying device is arranged in the cabinet body, and the humidifying device is used to increase the humidity of the air in the storage room. However, it is difficult for the humidifying device to keep the air humidity in the storage room constant, resulting in a problem of large fluctuations in the humidity in the storage room when the cigar cabinet is working, which is not conducive to the aging of cigars and is also easy to cause the cigars to become moldy or infested with insects. Utility Model Content

[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides a cigar cabinet, which can solve the technical problem of large fluctuations in air humidity in the storage room of the related cigar cabinet.

[0005] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a cigar cabinet, comprising:

[0006] Cabinet, limited to storage room;

[0007] and a humidifying device, disposed in the storage room, the humidifying device comprising:

[0008] A water tank, comprising a liquid storage tank, a humidifying tank and a flow channel, wherein the liquid storage tank and the humidifying tank are connected through the flow channel, and the humidifying tank and the storage chamber are connected;

[0009] A humidifying element is disposed in the humidifying tank, the humidifying element is water-absorbent, and a portion of the humidifying element is disposed below a set liquid level of the humidifying tank;

[0010] and a lever assembly, including:

[0011] A lever is disposed in the humidifying tank, the lever is rotatably connected to the water tank, a portion of the lever is passed through the flow channel and a terminal end of the lever extends into the liquid storage tank;

[0012] A sealing member, the density of which is greater than the density of the humidifying liquid, the sealing member being arranged at one end of the lever extending into the liquid storage tank;

[0013] A buoyancy member, the density of which is less than the density of the humidification liquid, the buoyancy member being arranged at an end of the lever away from the sealing member;

[0014] When the liquid level in the humidifying tank reaches a set liquid level, the sealing member blocks the liquid inlet of the flow channel;

[0015] When the liquid level in the humidifying tank is lower than the set liquid level, the lever rotates and drives the sealing member to move upward and open the liquid inlet.

[0016] In the cigar cabinet of this embodiment, the water tank is divided into a liquid storage tank and a humidifying tank. The humidifying component is arranged in the humidifying tank, and part of the humidifying component is arranged below the set liquid level of the humidifying tank. The conduction and sealing between the liquid storage tank and the humidifying tank are controlled by the lever assembly. The lever assembly rotates with the change of the liquid level in the humidifying tank. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank rises, the lever drives the sealing component to move toward the liquid inlet between the liquid storage tank and the humidifying tank. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank reaches the set liquid level, the sealing component blocks the liquid inlet. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank is lower than the set liquid level, the sealing component opens the liquid inlet to allow the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank to flow to the humidifying tank. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank reaches the set liquid level, the sealing component blocks the liquid inlet again. This cycle is repeated so that the liquid level in the humidifying tank is roughly maintained at the set liquid level. In this way, the area of ​​the part of the humidifying component exposed to the air can be roughly kept constant, reducing the change in the amount of moisture carried away from the surface of the humidifying component by the air per unit time, thereby reducing the fluctuation amplitude of the humidity in the storage room.

[0017] In some embodiments of the present application, a partition is provided in the water tank, and the partition divides the water tank into a horizontally arranged liquid storage tank and a humidification tank, and the flow channel is provided at the bottom of the partition.

[0020] Such arrangement enables the liquid inlet to face upwards and the liquid outlet to face sideways, making it easier for part of the lever to rotate in the flow channel.

[0021] In some embodiments of the present application, the water tank further includes a shielding portion, the shielding portion is connected to an end of the connecting pipe close to the liquid inlet, and the shielding portion is disposed around a portion of the sealing component.

[0022] In this configuration, the shielding portion is used to shield at least a portion of the sealing member, so as to improve the decorative effect of the cigar cabinet.

[0023] In some embodiments of the present application, the lever is rotatably connected to a side of the partition facing the humidification tank.

[0024] This arrangement simplifies the connection structure between the lever and the box.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, the partition includes a recessed portion, which is recessed in a direction away from the humidification tank, and part of the lever is disposed in the recessed portion.

[0027] In some embodiments of the present application, the water tank includes a bracket, the bracket is arranged in the humidification tank, the bracket defines an installation opening, and the humidification component is arranged in the installation opening; the humidification tank includes a return air chamber and an air outlet chamber located on both sides of the humidification component, and the return air chamber and the air outlet chamber are both connected to the storage chamber.

[0028] With such arrangement, when the humidifying device is working, the air in the storage room enters the return air compartment from the first return air outlet, flows through the humidifying element to the air outlet compartment, carries away the moisture on the humidifying element, increases the humidity of the air, and the humid air is then blown out from the first air outlet into the storage room to increase the humidity of the air in the storage room.

[0029] The air flowing from the return air chamber to the outlet air chamber needs to pass through the humidifier, which reduces the amount of air that does not contact the humidifier in the air blown out from the first air outlet, thereby increasing the amount of air that contacts the humidifier, thereby increasing the humidification rate of the air in the storage room.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, a circulation opening is provided on the bracket, and the circulation opening is located at the bottom of the installation opening, and the return air chamber and the outlet air chamber are connected through the circulation opening.

[0031] In this arrangement, since the bottom of the humidifying element is used to be immersed in the humidifying liquid in the humidifying tank, when the liquid level in the humidifying tank is approximately the set liquid level, the flow port is also immersed in water, so that the humidifying liquids in the return air chamber and the outlet air chamber can be interconnected through the flow port, thereby improving the consistency of the liquid levels in the return air chamber and the outlet air chamber.

The fan is used to circulate the air in the storage room and the humidifying tank, and increase the air circulation rate in the storage room and the humidifying tank, thereby increasing the humidification rate of the air in the storage room.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the water tank also includes a cover plate, which covers the top of the mounting frame, and a second return air inlet and a second air outlet are provided on the cover plate. The return air chamber is connected to the storage chamber through the second return air inlet, and the air outlet chamber is connected to the storage chamber through the second air outlet.

[0038] With such arrangement, the cover plate can conceal the mounting frame, thereby improving the decorative effect of the cigar cabinet.

[0039] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a cigar cabinet, comprising:

[0040] Cabinet, limited to storage room;

[0041] and a humidifying device, disposed in the storage room, the humidifying device comprising:

[0046] a buoyancy member having a density less than that of the humidification liquid, the buoyancy member being disposed at the second end;

[0047] A seal, whose density is greater than that of the humidification liquid, is disposed at the first end and is configured to block the liquid inlet of the flow channel when the liquid level in the humidification tank reaches a set liquid level, otherwise, the liquid inlet is opened.

[0048] With such arrangement, the water tank is divided into a liquid storage tank and a humidifying tank. The humidifying component is arranged in the humidifying tank, and part of the humidifying component is arranged below the set liquid level in the humidifying tank. The conduction and sealing between the liquid storage tank and the humidifying tank are controlled by the lever assembly. The lever assembly rotates with the change of the liquid level in the humidifying tank. During the process of rising liquid level in the humidifying tank, the lever drives the sealing component to move toward the liquid inlet. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank reaches the set liquid level, the sealing component blocks the liquid inlet. When the liquid level in the humidifying tank is lower than the set liquid level, the sealing component opens the liquid inlet to allow the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank to flow to the humidifying tank.

[0088] As described in the background technology, the cigar cabinet in the related technology has the problem of large fluctuations in the air humidity in the storage room. The inventor has found through research that the reason for this problem is that the related cigar cabinet includes a humidifying water box, a humidifying curtain and a fan. The humidifying water box is provided with a second return air port and a second air outlet. The humidifying water box is used to store water. The lower end of the humidifying curtain is inserted into the water in the humidifying water box. The fan is used to make the air in the storage room flow from the second return air port into the humidifying water box and flow through the part of the humidifying curtain located above the water surface, carrying the moisture on the surface of the humidifying curtain, increasing the humidity of the air, and then blowing it out from the second air outlet into the storage room to increase the humidity of the air in the storage room. However, the area of ​​the part of the humidifying curtain located above the water surface will change with the change of the liquid level in the humidifying water box, resulting in the problem of large fluctuations in the humidity in the storage room of the cigar cabinet when it is working.

[0089] In view of this, the cigar cabinet in the embodiment of the present application divides the water tank into a liquid storage tank and a humidification tank. The humidification component is arranged in the humidification tank, and part of the humidification component is arranged below the set liquid level of the humidification tank. The conduction and closing between the liquid storage tank and the humidification tank are controlled by a lever assembly. The lever assembly rotates with the change of the liquid level in the humidification tank. When the liquid level in the humidification tank is lower than the set liquid level, the liquid inlet of the flow channel is opened; when the liquid level in the humidification tank reaches the set liquid level, the liquid inlet is closed, and the cycle is repeated so that the liquid level in the humidification tank is roughly maintained at the set liquid level. In this way, the area of ​​the humidification component exposed to the air can be kept roughly constant, reducing the change in the amount of moisture carried away from the surface of the humidification component by the air per unit time, thereby reducing the fluctuation amplitude of the humidity in the storage room.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0097] refer to Figure 1The cigar cabinet of the embodiment of the present application includes a cabinet body 1, a cabinet door 3 and a humidifying device 2.

[0098] A storage chamber 11 is defined in the cabinet 1 . The storage chamber 11 has an access opening through which cigars can be taken out of the storage chamber 11 .

[0099] The storage room 11 may be provided with a shelf 12 for placing cigars. There may be a plurality of shelves 12, which are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the cigar cabinet to improve the space utilization rate in the storage room 11. The shelves 12 may be provided with air holes, which improve the air circulation at the bottom of the cigars to facilitate the fermentation and maturation of the cigars.

[0100] The cabinet door 3 and the cabinet body 1 are rotatably connected so that the cabinet door 3 can be used to open or close the access opening.

[0101] The humidifying device 2 is disposed in the storage chamber 11 , and is used to increase the humidity of the air in the storage chamber 11 .

[0102] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some possible embodiments, the humidifying device 2 may include a water tank 20, and the water tank 20 may include a box body 22. A liquid storage tank 23 may be constructed in the box body 22, and the liquid storage tank 23 is used to store humidifying liquid, wherein the humidifying liquid may be water or a mixture of other components and water.

[0103] A humidifying tank 24 may be further configured in the box body 22, and the humidifying tank 24 and the liquid storage tank 23 are separated from each other. The air in the humidifying tank 24 is communicated with the air in the storage chamber 11.

[0104] In some possible embodiments, reference Figure 4 , a partition 25 may be provided in the box 22. The partition 25 may be in the form of a plate or a sheet. The partition 25 divides the space in the box 22 into a horizontally arranged liquid storage tank 23 and a humidification tank 24. It should be noted that the horizontal arrangement of the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24 means that the liquid storage tank 23 is adjacent to the side of the humidification tank 24.

[0105] In some possible embodiments, a flow channel 253 may be further constructed in the housing 22 , and the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24 are connected through the flow channel 253 , so that the humidification liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 can flow into the humidification tank 24 through the flow channel 253 .

[0106] The flow channel 253 may have a liquid inlet 254. The liquid storage tank 23 is connected to the flow channel 253 through the liquid inlet 254, and the humidification liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 may enter the flow channel 253 from the liquid inlet 254. The liquid inlet 254 of the flow channel 253 faces upward. It should be noted that the liquid inlet 254 faces upward means that the center line of the liquid inlet 254 is inclined relative to the horizontal direction, that is, the angle between the center line of the liquid inlet 254 and the horizontal direction may be less than 90° (the liquid inlet 254 is inclined upward) or equal to 90° (the liquid inlet 254 faces directly upward).

[0107] The flow channel 253 may have a liquid outlet 255 , and the flow channel 253 is connected to the humidification tank 24 through the liquid outlet 255 . The humidification liquid in the flow channel 253 may flow into the humidification tank 24 from the liquid outlet 255 .

[0108] In some possible implementations of the present application, reference is made to Figure 4 The box body 22 may include a connecting pipe 252 , which is disposed in the liquid storage tank 23 , with the top opening of the connecting pipe 252 facing upward, the liquid inlet 254 being the top opening of the connecting pipe 252 , and the flow channel 253 being a channel in the connecting pipe 252 .

[0109] refer to Figure 5 Part of the tube wall of the connecting tube 252 is connected to the partition 25 , and the liquid outlet 255 passes through the partition 25 and the tube wall of the connecting tube 252 and is connected to the space inside the connecting tube 252 .

[0110] The humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 enters the flow channel 253 from the liquid inlet 254 of the connecting pipe 252 , and then flows into the humidifying tank 24 from the liquid outlet 255 .

[0111] In some possible embodiments, the water tank 20 may further include a shielding portion 256, which is connected to one end of the connecting pipe 252 near the liquid inlet 254. The shielding portion 256 is arranged around the periphery of a portion of the sealing member 281, and there is a gap between the shielding portion 256 and the sealing member 281. Exemplarily, the shielding portion 256 may be annular or mesh-shaped, etc., and the shielding portion 256 is used to shield at least a portion of the sealing member 281 to improve the decorative effect of the cigar cabinet.

[0112] In the implementation in which the shielding portion 256 is annular, the side wall of the shielding portion 256 may be configured with a notch 257 , which extends to the end surface of the connecting tube 252 , so that the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 can flow from the notch 257 into the connecting tube 252 .

[0113] In some other possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the flow channel 253 can be constructed at the bottom of the box body 22, the liquid inlet 254 of the flow channel 253 is located at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 23, and the liquid outlet 255 of the flow channel 253 is located at the bottom of the humidification tank 24. When the humidification liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 is less, water can also flow from the flow channel 253 to the humidification tank 24, thereby improving the utilization rate of the water in the liquid storage tank 23.

[0114] In some possible embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The humidifying device 2 may include a humidifying member 27, which is disposed in the humidifying tank 24. The bottom of the humidifying member 27 is used to be immersed in the humidifying liquid in the humidifying tank 24.

[0115] The humidifying member 27 is water-absorbent, and after the humidifying member 27 at the bottom absorbs water, the water can be transferred to the humidifying member 27 above the liquid surface. When the air in the humidifying tank 24 flows through the humidifying member 27 above the liquid surface, the water on the surface of the humidifying member 27 is carried away to increase the humidity of the air in the humidifying tank 24. Since the humidifying tank 24 is connected to the storage chamber 11, the air humidity in the storage chamber 11 can be increased.

[0116] In some possible implementations of the present application, reference is made to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The humidifying element 27 may include a frame 271 and humidifying fibers 272, and the humidifying fibers 272 are arranged in the frame 271. The humidifying fibers 272 are water-absorbent fibers. There are many capillaries in the humidifying fibers 272. When part of the humidifying fibers 272 is immersed in water, the humidifying fibers 272 can quickly absorb water under the action of wetting and capillaries, and water molecules rise in the capillaries in the humidifying fibers 272, so that the humidifying fibers 272 above the liquid surface also absorb water.

[0117] refer to Figure 7 The humidifying fibers 272 can be arranged in a wave shape along the horizontal direction. When the size of the frame 271 remains unchanged, the humidifying fibers 272 are arranged in a wave shape, which can increase the expansion area of ​​the humidifying fibers 272, thereby increasing the water absorption of the humidifying fibers 272, and further increasing the humidification efficiency of the humidifying fibers 272 on the air.

[0118] In some other possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the humidifying element 27 can be a humidifying cotton, which is absorbent and breathable. When the bottom of the humidifying cotton is immersed in water, the humidifying cotton can absorb water to the part of the humidifying cotton above the liquid surface to humidify the air in the storage room.

[0119] In some possible embodiments, reference Figure 4 and Figure 8The humidifying device 2 may include a lever assembly 28. The lever assembly 28 may include a lever 282. The lever 282 is rotatably connected to the water tank 20.

[0120] In some possible implementations of the embodiment of the present application, the lever 282 may be disposed in the humidification tank 24 .

[0121] In some possible embodiments, the lever 282 may be rotatably connected to a side of the partition 25 facing the humidification tank 24 to simplify the connection structure between the lever 282 and the housing 22 .

[0122] In some possible embodiments, the lever 282 may be connected to the bottom of the humidification tank 24 via a support frame (not shown in the drawings).

[0123] Part of the lever 282 is disposed in the flow channel 253 and the end thereof passes through the liquid inlet 254 and extends into the liquid storage tank 23. Thus, when the lever 282 rotates relative to the housing 22, part of the lever 282 rotates in the flow channel 253. There is a gap between the lever 282 in the flow channel 253 and the inner wall of the flow channel 253, so that water can flow through the flow channel 253 normally.

[0124] In some possible embodiments, the lever assembly 28 may include a seal 281, the density of the seal 281 is greater than the density of the humidification liquid, so that the seal 281 is difficult to float on the surface of the humidification liquid. For example, the seal 281 may be a ceramic ball or a stainless steel ball. The seal 281 is disposed at one end of the lever 282 extending into the liquid storage tank 23. When the lever 282 rotates relative to the box body 22, the seal 281 is driven to move toward or away from the liquid inlet 254.

[0125] In some possible embodiments, the lever assembly 28 may include a buoyancy member 283, the density of which is less than the density of the humidification liquid, so that the buoyancy member 283 can float on the surface of the humidification liquid, and illustratively, the buoyancy member 283 may be foam or rubber, etc. The buoyancy member 283 is disposed at one end of the lever 282 away from the sealing member 281, that is, the buoyancy member 283 is located in the humidification tank 24.

[0126] When there is no water in the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24, there is a gap between the sealing member 281 and the liquid inlet 254. Figure 8 At this time, the sealing member 281 does not block the liquid inlet 254 , and the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24 are connected through the flow channel 253 .

[0127] Add humidifying liquid into the liquid storage tank 23, and part of the water in the liquid storage tank 23 flows from the flow channel 253 to the humidifying tank 24. Figure 8As the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 gradually rises, the buoyancy member 283 gradually rises, driving the lever 282 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby causing the sealing member 281 to gradually descend, and the sealing member 281 gradually moves toward the liquid inlet 254.

[0128] When the liquid level in the humidifying tank 24 reaches the set liquid level, the sealing member 281 moves to the liquid inlet 254 and abuts against the edge of the liquid inlet 254. Figure 4 , the sealing member 281 blocks the liquid inlet 254 , and at this time, the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 is difficult to move into the humidifying tank 24 .

[0129] During the humidification process of the storage chamber 11, the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 gradually decreases. When the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 is lower than the set liquid level, the buoyancy member 283 decreases, driving the lever 282 to rotate clockwise, thereby causing the sealing member 281 to move away from the liquid inlet 254 and open the liquid inlet 254 (refer to Figure 8 ), at this time, the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 can flow into the humidifying tank 24.

[0130] As the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 gradually rises, the buoyancy member 283 gradually rises, driving the lever 282 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby gradually lowering the sealing member 281, and the sealing member 281 gradually moves toward the liquid inlet 254. When the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 reaches the set liquid level, the sealing member 281 blocks the liquid inlet 254 again.

[0131] Such a cycle is carried out so that the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 can be roughly maintained at the set liquid level, so that the area of ​​the humidification component 27 exposed to the air can be kept roughly constant, reducing the change in the amount of moisture carried away from the surface of the humidification component 27 by the air per unit time, thereby reducing the fluctuation amplitude of the humidity in the storage chamber 11.

[0132] In some possible embodiments, the partition 25 may include a recessed portion 251. The recessed portion 251 is recessed in a direction away from the humidification tank 24 to form an enlarged space on a side of the partition 25 facing the humidification tank 24 to accommodate a portion of the lever 282 and the buoyancy member 283, so as to facilitate arranging the portion of the lever 282 and the buoyancy member 283 in the humidification tank 24.

[0133] In some other possible implementations of the embodiment of the present application, the lever 282 can be rotatably connected to the top of the partition 25. The first end of the lever 282 can extend into the liquid storage tank 23, and the sealing member 281 can be connected to the first end of the lever 282. The second end of the lever 282 can extend into the humidification tank 24, and the buoyancy member 283 can be connected to the second end of the lever 282.

[0134] When there is no water in the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24 , there is a gap between the sealing member 281 and the liquid inlet 254 . At this time, the sealing member 281 does not block the liquid inlet 254 , and the liquid storage tank 23 and the humidification tank 24 are connected through the flow channel 253 .

[0135] Humidifying liquid is added into the liquid storage tank 23, and part of the water in the liquid storage tank 23 flows from the flow channel 253 to the humidifying tank 24. As the liquid level in the humidifying tank 24 gradually rises, the buoyancy member 283 gradually rises, driving the lever 282 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby causing the sealing member 281 to gradually descend, and the sealing member 281 gradually moves toward the liquid inlet 254.

[0136] When the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 reaches the set liquid level, the seal 281 moves to the liquid inlet 254 and abuts against the edge of the liquid inlet 254 , and the seal 281 blocks the liquid inlet 254 . At this time, the humidification liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 is difficult to move into the humidification tank 24 .

[0137] During the process of humidifying the storage chamber 11, as the humidification process proceeds, the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 will gradually drop. When the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 is lower than the set liquid level, the buoyancy member 283 drops, driving the lever 282 to rotate clockwise, thereby causing the sealing member 281 to move away from the liquid inlet 254 and open the liquid inlet 254. At this time, the humidification liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 can flow into the humidification tank 24.

[0138] As the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 gradually rises, the buoyancy member 283 gradually rises, driving the lever 282 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby gradually lowering the sealing member 281, and the sealing member 281 gradually moves toward the liquid inlet 254. When the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 reaches the set liquid level, the sealing member 281 blocks the liquid inlet 254 again.

[0139] Such a cycle is carried out so that the liquid level in the humidification tank 24 can be roughly maintained at the set liquid level, so that the area of ​​the humidification component 27 exposed to the air can be kept roughly constant, reducing the change in the amount of moisture carried away from the surface of the humidification component 27 by the air per unit time, thereby reducing the fluctuation amplitude of the humidity in the storage chamber 11.

[0140] In some possible implementations of the present application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The water tank 20 may include a mounting frame 21, and the mounting frame 21 may be disposed in the storage chamber 11. The bottom of the mounting frame 21 and the cabinet body 1 may be surrounded to form a receiving cavity. The box body 22 may be disposed in the receiving cavity.

[0141] In some possible embodiments, the box 22 may be retractably disposed in the accommodating cavity to facilitate adding humidifying liquid into the liquid storage tank 23. Exemplarily, the box 22 may be slidably disposed at the bottom of the mounting frame 21, or the box 22 may be slidably connected to the side wall and / or bottom wall of the cabinet 1.

[0142] The mounting frame 21 may be configured with a first return air port 211 , and the humidification tank 24 may be in communication with the storage chamber 11 through the first return air port 211 .

[0143] The mounting frame 21 may be configured with a first air outlet 212 , and the humidification tank 24 may be in communication with the storage chamber 11 through the first air outlet 212 .

[0144] In some possible embodiments, the humidifying device 2 may include a fan 29, which may be disposed at the first return air port 211. When the fan 29 is working, the air in the storage chamber 11 enters the humidifying tank 24 from the first return air port 211, flows through the humidifying element 27, and is blown out from the first air outlet 212 into the storage chamber 11. The fan 29 is used to circulate the air in the storage chamber 11 and the humidifying tank 24, and increase the air circulation rate in the storage chamber 11 and the humidifying tank 24, thereby increasing the humidification rate of the air in the storage chamber 11.

[0145] In some possible embodiments, a bracket 243 may be provided in the humidification tank 24, and the bracket 243 divides the space in the humidification tank 24 into a return air chamber 241 and an outlet air chamber 242. The return air chamber 241 is connected to the storage chamber 11 through the first return air port 211. The outlet air chamber 242 is connected to the storage chamber 11 through the first outlet air port 212.

[0146] The bracket 243 may define a mounting opening 244, and the humidifying element 27 may be disposed in the mounting opening 244. The return air chamber 241 and the outlet air chamber 242 are located on both sides of the humidifying element 27, respectively.

[0147] The humidifying member 27 has air permeability so that air can pass through the humidifying member 27 from one side of the humidifying member 27 and then flow to the other side of the humidifying member 27 .

[0148] When the humidifying device 2 is working, the air in the storage room 11 enters the return air chamber 241 from the first return air port 211, passes through the humidifying element 27 and flows to the air outlet chamber 242, carrying away the moisture on the humidifying element 27 to increase the humidity of the air, and the humidified air is then blown out from the first air outlet 212 into the storage room 11 to increase the humidity of the air in the storage room 11.

[0149] The air flowing from the return air chamber 241 to the outlet air chamber 242 needs to pass through the humidifier 27, which reduces the amount of air that has not come into contact with the humidifier 27 in the air blown out from the first air outlet 212, thereby increasing the amount of air that comes into contact with the humidifier 27, thereby increasing the humidification rate of the air in the storage chamber 11.

[0150] In some possible embodiments, reference Figure 5 and Fig. 9 The bottom of the bracket 243 may be provided with a flow port 245, and the return air chamber 241 and the outlet air chamber 242 are connected through the flow port 245. The flow port 245 is located at the bottom of the mounting port 244, that is, at the bottom of the humidifying element 27. Since the bottom of the humidifying element 27 is used to be immersed in the humidifying liquid in the humidifying tank 24, when the liquid level in the humidifying tank 24 is approximately the set liquid level, the flow port 245 is also immersed in water, so that the humidifying liquid in the return air chamber 241 and the outlet air chamber 242 can be connected to each other through the flow port 245, thereby improving the consistency of the liquid levels in the return air chamber 241 and the outlet air chamber 242.

[0151] In some possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the return air chamber 241 can be connected to the liquid storage tank 23 through the flow channel 253, so that the humidifying liquid in the liquid storage tank 23 first flows into the return air chamber 241 through the flow channel 253, and then flows from the flow port 245 to the air outlet chamber 242. The humidifying liquids in the return air chamber 241 and the air outlet chamber 242 are connected to each other, so that the side of the humidifying element 27 facing the return air chamber 241 and the side facing the air outlet chamber 242 can both be in contact with water, thereby improving the water absorption rate of the humidifying element 27.

[0152] In some possible embodiments, reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The water tank 20 may include a cover plate 26, which covers the top of the mounting frame 21. The cover plate 26 can shield the mounting frame 21, thereby improving the decorative effect of the cigar cabinet.

[0153] In some possible embodiments, a second return air port 261 may be provided on the cover plate 26, and the second return air port 261 is connected to the first return air port 211. The air in the storage chamber 11 and the air in the humidification tank 24 (return air chamber 241) are connected through the second return air port 261 and the first return air port 211. The air in the storage chamber 11 flows through the second return air port 261 and the first return air port 211 in turn, and then flows into the humidification tank 24 (return air chamber 241).

[0154] In some possible embodiments, a second air outlet 262 may be constructed on the cover plate 26, and the second air outlet 262 is connected to the first air outlet 212. The air in the humidification tank 24 (air outlet chamber 242) and the air in the storage chamber 11 are connected to the first air outlet 212 through the second air outlet 262. The air in the humidification tank 24 (air outlet chamber 242) flows through the first air outlet 212 and the second air outlet 262 in sequence, and then flows into the storage chamber 11.

[0155] In some possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, a handle portion 231 may be configured on the front side of the box body 22 , and the box body 22 may be easily pulled out of the cabinet body 1 through the handle portion 231 .

[0156] In some possible implementations of the embodiment of the present application, the liquid storage tank 23 is closer to the front side of the box body 22 than the humidification tank 24 to facilitate adding humidification liquid into the liquid storage tank 23 .

[0157] A liquid level portion 232 may be provided on the front side of the box body 22 , and the liquid level portion 232 is used to display the height of the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 23 , so as to facilitate knowing the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 23 .

[0158] In some possible embodiments, the liquid level portion 232 may be a light-transmitting plate, and the liquid level portion 232 may extend along the height direction of the cabinet 1 , so that the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 23 can be observed through the liquid level portion 232 .

[0159] In some possible embodiments, the liquid level portion 232 may be a light-transmitting tube, and the light-transmitting tube and the bottom of the liquid storage tank 23 are interconnected to form a communicating vessel, so that the light-transmitting tube and the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 23 are maintained at the same horizontal plane, and the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 23 can be known by observing the liquid level in the light-transmitting tube.
