[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the utility model and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0024] In the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise specified and limited, it should be noted that the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection, or it can be the internal connection of two components. It can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the humidification guide device of the utility model comprises a housing 100, a guide cavity is formed in the housing 100, the housing 100 comprises an inlet 101 and at least two outlets 102, and a baffle 103 corresponding to the inlet 101, and the at least two outlets 102 are arranged on both sides of the baffle 103. The side where the inlet 101 is located is defined as the inlet side of the housing 100, and the side where the outlet 102 is located is defined as the outlet side of the housing 100.
[0026] The humidified air enters the guide cavity through the inlet 101 located on the inlet side, diffuses from the inlet side to the outlet side, and when diffused to the position of the baffle plate 103, it is blocked by the baffle plate 103 from diffusing to both sides of the guide cavity. At the same time, part of the humidified air that bounces back forms convection with the humidified air that enters from the inlet 101, thereby accelerating the diffusion rate of the humidified air to both sides of the guide cavity. The diffused humidified air is evenly discharged from the outlets 102 on both sides of the baffle plate 103 and flows into the space to be humidified, thereby achieving balanced humidification of the space to be humidified.
[0027] The shell 100 includes a top plate, a bottom plate, an inlet plate located on the inlet side, and two groups of side plates connected between the top plate and the bottom plate. The inlet 101 is opened on the inlet plate. The top plate, the bottom plate, the inlet plate and the two groups of side plates together form the guide cavity. The outlet side of the shell 100 is open. The baffle plate 103 closes part of the opening and separates the opening into two parts, forming the outlet 102 located on both sides of the baffle plate 103.
[0028] Preferably, the inlet 101 is opened in the middle of the inlet plate, so that the volumes of the guide cavities on both sides of the inlet 101 are the same, and the humidified air flowing out of the two groups of outlets 103 is roughly the same, thereby achieving balanced humidification of the space to be humidified.
[0029] Furthermore, the cross-section of the guide cavity inside the shell 100 is trapezoidal, and the length of the inlet side is smaller than the length of the outlet side, that is, the length of the guide cavity gradually increases from the inlet side to the outlet side, so that the humidified air in the guide cavity has a larger diffusion range, and the outlet side has a larger opening, thereby improving the diffusion efficiency and balance of the humidified air flowing from the outlet 102 into the space to be humidified, and preventing large humidity differences in the space to be humidified.
[0030] In this embodiment, the bottom plate is trapezoidal, and the length of the inlet side is smaller than the length of the outlet side. The two groups of side plates are symmetrically arranged along the hypotenuse of the bottom plate, thereby forming a trapezoidal guide cavity together with the top plate and the inlet plate.
[0031] The baffle 103 is connected between the top plate and the bottom plate to close the partial opening on the outlet side, and includes a base plate 103a arranged along the outlet side and wing plates 103b connected to both ends of the base plate 103a, the base plate 103a is parallel to the inlet plate, the wing plates 103b extend from the end of the base plate 103a to the inside of the shell 100 in a direction away from the base plate 103a, two groups of the wing plates 103b are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base plate 103a, and the wing plates 103b are inclined and extend from the connection point with the base plate 103a toward the side plate on the same side.
[0032] The substrate 103a is directly opposite to the outlet 101 located in the middle of the inlet plate, so that when the humidified air enters the guide cavity through the inlet 101, it diffuses from the inlet side to the outlet side, and when it diffuses to the position of the substrate 103a, it is blocked by the substrate 103a to diffuse toward the wing plates 103b on both sides, and diffuses toward the two sides of the guide cavity along the inclined wing plates 103b to the entire guide cavity. At the same time, part of the humidified air rebounded from the substrate 103a forms convection with the humidified air entering from the inlet 101, further accelerating the diffusion rate of the humidified air to the two sides of the guide cavity, and the diffused humidified air is evenly discharged from the outlets 102 on both sides and flows into the space to be humidified, thereby achieving balanced humidification of the space to be humidified.
[0033] The length of the wing plate 103b extending into the shell 100 is preferably 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 of the distance from the outlet side to the inlet side. The wing plate 103b can be used to guide the humidified air to the inlet side of the guide cavity, so that the humidified air is discharged from the entire outlet 102 as much as possible, preventing most of the humidified air from being directly discharged from a position adjacent to the baffle plate 103, resulting in uneven humidity in the space to be humidified.
[0034] Furthermore, the shell 100 further includes a guide plate 104 spaced apart from the outlet 102 , the guide plate 104 extending from the outlet side toward the inside of the shell 100 , and the guide plate 104 is used to guide and divert the humidified air flowing from the outlet 102 into the space to be humidified.
[0035] A plurality of groups of guide plates 104 are arranged at intervals in the outlet 102 to divide the outlet 102 into a plurality of outlet holes. The humidified air guided to the inlet side by the wing plate 103b evenly enters the space to be humidified through the plurality of outlet holes.
[0036] The guide plate 104 is arranged obliquely and extends from the outlet side toward the baffle plate 103. Specifically, all the guide plates 104 located in the same outlet 102 are parallel to each other, and the guide plates 104 are parallel to the side plates on the same side, and the guide plates 104 in the outlets 102 on both sides are symmetrical to each other, so that the outlet 102 is divided into a plurality of outlet holes with guide angles, and the humidified air introduced into the space to be humidified from the outlet holes enters the space to be humidified at an angle of oblique outward diffusion, thereby expanding the introduction radiation angle of the humidified air, accelerating the air flow in the space to be humidified, and further achieving better balanced humidification of the space to be humidified.
[0037] Preferably, the length of the guide plate 104 extending into the shell 100 can be consistent with the extension length of the wing plate 103b, so that the humidified air guided from the wing plate 103b to the inlet side of the guide cavity can be diffused as much as possible to fill the entire inlet side area, which is conducive to the humidified air to evenly enter the space to be humidified from each of the outlet holes.
[0038] The innermost group of guide plates 104 is connected to the baffle plate 103. In this embodiment, the guide plates 104 extend from the outlet side toward the baffle plate 103, and the innermost group of guide plates 104 extends from the outlet side to the end of the wing plate 103b on the same side away from the substrate 103a.
[0039] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The present invention also provides a refrigerator, comprising the above-mentioned humidification guide device, as well as an inner tank 200 and a humidifying component 300 located at the rear side of the inner tank 200, the shell 100 is located in the inner tank 200, and the humidifying component 300 is connected to the inlet 101 of the shell 100.
[0040] The humidifying component 300 is an ultrasonic atomizing humidifier, which is provided with a humidifying pipe and is connected to the inlet 101 to pass humidified air into the shell 100. The humidifying component 300 is located in the foaming layer on the rear side of the refrigerator. The humidifying pipe passes through the inner tank and is connected to the inlet 101. An external water source or refrigerator defrosting water can be injected into the humidifying component 300 for humidification.
[0041] When the refrigerator compartment needs to be humidified, the humidifying element 300 is turned on to generate atomized water vapor, and the atomized water vapor passes into the guide cavity of the shell 100 through the humidification pipeline. After being diverted by the baffle plate 103 and guided by the guide plate 104, the atomized water vapor evenly enters the refrigerator compartment from the air outlets 102 on both sides of the baffle plate 103, thereby achieving uniform humidification of the refrigerator compartment.
[0042] Further, a high humidity drawer 201 is provided in the inner tank 200, and the housing 100 is located in the high humidity drawer 201. The high humidity drawer 201 needs to maintain a high humidity environment, and the housing 100 is horizontally arranged at the rear side of the high humidity drawer 201, and humidified air is uniformly introduced into the high humidity drawer 201 through the housing 100.
[0043] In summary, the utility model allows the humidified air flowing thereto to diffuse toward both sides of the guide cavity through the baffle plate 103 facing the inlet 101, and the diffused humidified air is evenly discharged from the outlets 102 on both sides of the baffle plate 103 and flows into the space to be humidified, thereby achieving balanced humidification of the space to be humidified.
