For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 3The humidification box for the heater according to the embodiment of the utility model can utilize the heat of the heater 3 to heat the air and evaporate the moisture in the humidification box to humidify the air. No other electrical components other than the heater 3 are required to humidify the air. The structure is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to disassemble and install.

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the humidification box for the heater according to the embodiment of the utility model includes: a box body 1 and a humidification strip 2.

[0035] The humidification strip 2 is used to absorb moisture, and the moisture can humidify the air after evaporation. It should be noted that in actual design, the humidification strip 2 can be selected as a porous medium, which is a material composed of a skeleton composed of solid matter and a large number of densely grouped tiny gaps separated by the skeleton. External moisture can infiltrate into a large number of gaps, and then the porous medium can fully absorb a large amount of moisture, which is conducive to humidifying the air after the moisture evaporates.

[0036] A humidification space 14 is formed in the box body 1, and water can be stored in the humidification space 14. At least part of the humidification strip 2 can be installed in the humidification space 14, and the box body 1 is provided with an air outlet connected to the humidification space 14. That is to say, the humidification space 14 is connected to the external environment through the air outlet, and the humidification strip 2 can absorb the moisture stored in the humidification space 14. After the moisture of the humidification strip 2 after absorbing water evaporates, it can pass through the air outlet connected to the humidification space 14 and enter the external air to humidify the external air. Among them, the air outlet can be set on the top surface of the box body 1, or on the top of the side of the box body 1. In addition, the humidification strip 2 can be installed in the humidification space 14, or a part of it can be directly placed at the position corresponding to the air outlet 331 of the heater 3. After absorbing the moisture in the humidification space 14, this part of the humidification strip 2 can be directly heated by the hot air flowing out of the air outlet 331 of the heater 3, and the moisture evaporates into water vapor and enters the external air.

[0037] Among them, the box body 1 is formed with a supporting groove 13, which is used to support the box body 1 and place it on the heater 3. An air inlet 111 connected to the humidification space 14 is provided in the box body 1, that is, the humidification space 14 is located above the supporting groove 13, and the air inlet 111 can be arranged in the supporting groove 13, so that the supporting groove 13 is connected with the humidification space 14 through the air inlet 111, so that the hot air at the bottom of the box body 1 can pass through the air inlet 111 into the humidification space 14, evaporate the water stored in the humidification space 14 and the moisture on the humidification strip 2, and the evaporated moisture is converted into water vapor, which can pass through the air outlet above the humidification space 14 into the external air.

[0038] The heater 3 is a household appliance that converts electrical energy into thermal energy and heats the air to increase the ambient temperature. When used as a heater 3, it has a complete structure and complete functions, and can independently realize the heating function. Among them, the core component of the heater 3 is the heating element 31, that is, the colder air can enter the interior of the heater 3 from the air inlet at the bottom of the heater 3, and the heating element 31 generates heat to heat the colder air inside to convert it into hot air. The hot air naturally passes upward from the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 into the environment, so as to transfer heat to the environment through the hot air, thereby increasing the ambient temperature. Of course, the interior and exterior of the heater 3 can also be provided with devices such as fans, wind wheels, and fan blades, which can be used to push the hot air out of the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3.

[0039] Furthermore, the box body 1 is suitable for being supported on the heater 3 at the support groove 13 and the air inlet 111 is suitable for being connected with the air outlet 331 of the heater 3, that is, the support groove 13 at the bottom of the box body 1 can be adapted to the shape and size of the top of the heater 3, so that the top of the heater 3 is inserted into the support groove 13, and the two inner side surfaces of the heater 3 at the support groove 13 are limited to the two sides of the top of the heater 3, and at the same time, the inner top surface of the support groove 13 is supported on the top surface 33 of the heater 3, so as to realize the installation support of the box body 1 relative to the heater 3, thereby The air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 is connected with the air inlet hole 111 of the box body 1. The hot air passing through the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 can enter the box body 1 through the air inlet hole 111, and then pass through the humidification space 14 and enter the external air from the air outlet. When the hot air flows through the humidification space 14, the moisture in the humidification strip 2 and the moisture stored inside will be evaporated and converted into water vapor. The water vapor passes through the air outlet and enters the external air, thereby humidifying the ambient air, preventing the ambient air from being too dry, and improving the user's comfort. And because the heat of the heater 3 is used to heat the air to evaporate the moisture in the humidification box, that is to say, when the hot air flows through the humidification box, the moisture in the humidification box can be evaporated. In this way, there is no need for separate additional electrical components to humidify the air, for example, there is no need for other electric heating devices, fan components or ultrasonic vibration plates and other electrical devices other than the heater 3. Therefore, the cost is greatly reduced, and the problem of the heater 3 with a humidification function device in the prior art being complicated in structure, high in cost, and the humidification function being dependent on electronic control for shutting down is solved.

[0040] In other embodiments, the box body 1 can be divided into two independent box bodies 1 installed on the heater 3, both box bodies 1 have part of the humidification strip 2, and the other part of the humidification strip 2 is directly placed on the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3.

[0041] When the user needs humidification, the humidification box can be directly placed on the top position of the heater 3 for use. When the user does not need humidification, the humidification box can be directly removed from the top position of the heater 3, or when the water in the box body 1 is used up, it can be removed from the heater 3 to replenish water. It is easy to install and disassemble, and has a simple structure and low cost.

[0042] According to the humidification box for the heater according to the embodiment of the utility model, by setting a humidification box for the heater containing a humidification strip 2, the humidification strip 2 installed in the humidification space 14 can absorb the moisture stored in the humidification space 14, and the moisture spreads and penetrates into the entire humidification strip 2, and then the humidification box is placed on the top of the heater 3, so that the hot air generated by the heater 3 passes through the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 upward, and then passes through the humidification space 14 of the humidification box to evaporate and take away the moisture on the humidification strip 2, and the water vapor passes through the air outlet holes on the box body 1 into the outside air, thereby realizing humidification of the air, and because the humidification box and the heater 3 are separately arranged, no other electric heating devices are required, and the heat of the heater 3 to heat the air can be directly used, which greatly reduces the cost, has a simple structure, and is easy to disassemble and install on the heater 3.

[0043] In some embodiments, the support groove 13 is formed on the bottom wall of the box body 1 and is configured to be open downward, and the air inlet 11 is provided on the top wall of the support groove 13 to communicate with the air outlet 331 in the vertical direction. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom wall of the box body 1 is provided with a support groove 13 which is open downwards, the bottom wall of the support groove 13 is provided with an air inlet hole 111, and the top position of the heater 3 is provided with an air outlet hole 331. The support groove 13 of the bottom wall of the box body 1 is adapted to the shape and size of the top of the heater 3, so that the top of the heater 3 is inserted into the support groove 13, and the two inner side surfaces of the heater 3 at the support groove 13 are limited to the two sides of the top of the heater 3, and at the same time, the inner top surface of the support groove 13 is supported on the heater. 3, the installation support of the box body 1 relative to the heater 3 is realized, so that the air outlet hole 331 on the top of the heater 3 is connected with the air inlet hole 111 of the box body 1 in the vertical direction, so that the hot air passing through the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 can enter the box body 1 upward through the air inlet hole 111, and then pass through the humidification space 14 and then pass through the air outlet to enter the external air. When the hot air flows through the humidification space 14, the moisture is evaporated to achieve humidification of the air.

[0044] In some embodiments, the box body 1 includes a box frame 11 and two water storage portions 12. The two water storage portions 12 are spaced apart and connected to both sides of the box frame 11 and define a support groove 13 below the box frame 11. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the box body 1 includes a box frame portion 11 located in the middle and a water storage portion 12 connected to the left and right sides of the box frame portion 11. In actual specific design, the box frame portion 11 can be constructed as a flat square structure, and the two water storage portions 12 can be constructed as a square body structure, and the length of the box frame portion 11 along the extension direction of the support groove 13 can be set to be the same as the length of the water storage portion 12 along the extension direction of the support groove 13, and the extension direction of the support groove 13 is the width direction of the box body 1, so that the width of the box body 1 at various positions is relatively balanced, and the humidification box is more stably supported on the top of the heater 3.

[0045] Among them, two support blocks 18 may be provided at the bottom of the box frame 11, and the two support blocks 18 are respectively provided at the left and right edges of the bottom surface of the box frame 11, so that the box frame 11 is supported above the heater 3 through the two support blocks 18, and the air inlet 111 provided on the box body 1 is spaced a certain distance from the air outlet 331 of the heater 3, so that the air outlet 331 and the air inlet 111 are both in a smooth state, which is convenient for the flow of hot air. And the vertical thickness of the water storage part 12 can be set to be greater than the vertical thickness of the box frame 11, and the bottom surface of the water storage part 12 is lower than the bottom surface of the box frame 11, so that the bottoms of the two water storage parts 12 are located on both sides of the bottom of the box frame 11, thereby the water storage parts 12 on both sides are spaced a certain distance apart, and a support groove 13 open downward is defined under the box frame 11.

[0046] Furthermore, the humidification space 14 includes a water storage cavity 141 formed in the water storage portion 12 and a connecting cavity formed in the box frame portion 11, at least a portion of the water storage cavity 141 is lower than the connecting cavity, a portion of the humidification strip 2 is located in the connecting cavity and a portion of the humidification strip 2 is located in the water storage cavity 141. In other words, the interior of the water storage portion 12 is hollow to form the water storage cavity 141 for storing water, the interior of the box frame portion 11 is also hollow and both sides are connected to the water storage cavity 141 to form a connecting cavity, whereby the water storage cavity 141 is connected to the connecting cavity, a portion of the humidification strip 2 can be distributed in the connecting cavity, and a portion can be distributed in the water storage cavity 141, a portion of the humidification strip 2 located in the water storage cavity 141 can be immersed in water to absorb water, and the water spreads and distributes to the humidification strip 2 in the connecting cavity, so that the entire humidification strip 2 absorbs water.

[0047] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the connecting cavity is connected to the water storage cavities 141 on both sides, and the lower part of the water storage cavity 141 is lower than the connecting cavity, wherein the shape of the humidifying strip 2 can be constructed to be flat in the middle and bent downward on both sides, so that parts of the humidifying strips 2 on both sides can be immersed in the water in the water storage cavities 141 on both sides to absorb moisture. In actual specific design, the size of the water storage cavity 141 can be increased as much as possible to store more moisture and facilitate the evaporation of moisture.

[0048] It should be noted that the shapes and sizes of the box frame 11, the water storage portion 12 and the humidifying strip 2 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited to those described in this embodiment.

[0049] In some embodiments, the air inlet 111 is arranged at the bottom of the box frame 11, and the air outlet includes a middle air outlet 112 arranged at the top of the box frame 11. The middle air outlet 112 is connected to the air inlet 111 at the upper and lower sides of the connecting cavity, that is, the air inlet 111 and the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 are arranged opposite to each other in the up and down direction. The air inlet 111 is connected to the lower side of the connecting cavity, and the middle air outlet 112 is connected to the upper side of the connecting cavity. The hot air passing through the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 passes into the connecting cavity from the air inlet 111 on the bottom of the box frame 11. When the hot air flows through the circulation cavity, the moisture of the humidification strip 2 located in the circulation cavity can be evaporated. Then, the hot air and water vapor pass through the middle air outlet 112 at the top of the box frame 11 and enter the external air. The hot air heats up the external environment, and the water vapor humidifies the external air.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the air inlet 111 is arranged at the bottom of the box frame 11, and the middle air outlet 112 is arranged at the top of the box frame 11. The air inlet 111 and the middle air outlet 112 connect the upper and lower sides of the communication cavity, so that hot air enters the communication cavity through the air inlet 111 and flows out of the communication cavity through the middle air outlet 112. Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the humidifier box is placed on the top of the heater 3, the air inlet 111 is separated from the air outlet 331 of the heater 3 by a certain distance and is arranged opposite to each other, thereby facilitating hot air to pass through the air inlet 111 into the connecting cavity to evaporate the moisture in the humidifier strip 2, and the evaporated moisture passes through the middle air outlet 112.

[0051] In some embodiments, the air inlet 111 and the middle air outlet 112 each include a plurality of long holes, and the plurality of long holes of the air inlet 111 are respectively and one by one distributed opposite to the plurality of long holes of the middle air outlet 112 in the up and down direction. That is to say, the air inlet 111 includes a plurality of long holes, and the middle air outlet 112 also includes a plurality of long holes. The plurality of long holes of the air inlet 111 and the plurality of long holes of the middle air outlet 112 respectively form a plurality of air flow paths, thereby increasing the air flow rate, facilitating the rapid flow of gas, thereby increasing the amount of water vapor and hot air in and out, facilitating humidification of the air, and ensuring that the gas can smoothly flow into the connecting cavity and out of the connecting cavity, thereby facilitating the discharge of water vapor and humidifying the air.

[0052] Specifically, Figure 3As shown, the middle air outlet 112 at the top of the box frame 11 and the air inlet 111 at the bottom of the box frame 11 are both provided with a plurality of holes, which are distributed one by one in the vertical direction. Figure 3 The strip holes 112 and the air inlet holes 111 are shaped like a circle or a square, and the middle air outlet holes 112 and the air inlet holes 111 are shaped like a circle or a square. The middle air outlet ...

[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the humidifier box is placed on the heater 3, the hot air exhausted from the heater 3 enters the connecting cavity through the multiple long holes of the air inlet 111, flows through the humidifier strip 2 to evaporate the moisture in the humidifier strip 2, and then the hot air and water vapor pass through the multiple long holes of the middle air outlet 112 and enter the outside air.

[0054] In some embodiments, the air outlet further includes a second air outlet 121 disposed on the top of the water storage portion 12 , and the second air outlet 121 is connected to the top of the water storage chamber 141 , that is, the second air outlet 121 is used to discharge water vapor in the water storage chamber 141 .

[0055] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the top of the water storage part 12 on both sides of the box frame part 11 is respectively provided with a second air outlet 121, that is, the box body 1 is provided with two second air outlets 121, and the second air outlet 121 is connected to the top of the water storage chamber 141. Since the two water storage parts 12 are respectively against the two side walls of the heater 3, the heat of the heater 3 can be transferred to the water storage part 12, so that the water in the water storage chamber 141 is heated and the temperature is increased, and then evaporated and converted into water vapor, and the water vapor is discharged upward from the second air outlet 121 above the water storage chamber 141, so as to realize humidification of the external air. Of course, in the actual specific design, the second air outlet 121 can be selectively set according to actual needs.

[0056] Therefore, when the hot air coming out of the heater 3 moves upward, it enters the connecting cavity to evaporate the moisture in the humidification strip 2. At the same time, the heat generated by the heating element 31 inside the heater 3 can be transferred to the water storage cavity 141 to evaporate the water in the water storage cavity 141. These two parts of water vapor enter the external air at the same time to humidify the air, thereby improving the efficiency of air humidification.

[0057] And / or, the two water storage parts 12 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the box frame part 11, that is, the two water storage parts 12 can be constructed to have the same structure and are respectively connected to both sides of the box frame part 11, so as to maintain the balance of the box body 1. Figure 2 As shown, the two opposite inner side surfaces at the bottom of the two water storage parts 12 are respectively against the two outer side walls of the heater 3, so that the humidifier box can be stably installed on the top surface 33 of the heater 3 without shaking and falling from the heater 3. The two inner side surfaces are respectively against the two outer side surfaces of the heater 3, which is beneficial to the heat transfer of the heater 3, so that the water in the water storage part 12 is quickly heated up, evaporated into water vapor and discharged from the second air outlet 121.

[0058] And / or, the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 is supported in the communicating cavity, and the two ends of the humidifying strip 2 extend into the two water storage parts 12 respectively. Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 is flat in shape, and both ends are bent downward, so that when the humidifying strip 2 is installed in the box body 1, the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 can be supported on the bottom of the box frame 11 and is located in the connecting cavity, and the two ends of the humidifying strip 2 extend downward into the two water storage parts 12 respectively, and are immersed in the water of the water storage cavity 141 on both sides to absorb moisture. The moisture at both ends can spread to the middle part of the humidifying strip 2, so that the entire humidifying strip 2 is filled with moisture, and then when the hot air of the heater 3 flows through the connecting cavity, the moisture in the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 can be evaporated.

[0059] It can be understood that the humidifying strip 2 can be a flexible member, and the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 is laid flat in the connecting cavity to cover the top of the air inlet 111. At the same time, the two ends of the humidifying strip 2 naturally droop into the two water storage chambers 141 under the action of gravity, and can be kept at a lower position in the water storage chamber 141 by gravity, so that the humidifying strip 2 can continuously absorb water from the water storage chamber 141 to maintain a moist state. Similarly, the middle part of the humidifying strip 2 also uses gravity to fit the upper surface of the inner bottom wall of the connecting cavity, ensuring that the hot air entering at the air inlet 111 can effectively pass through the humidifying strip 2 to evaporate the water vapor.

[0060] The area of ​​the humidifying strip 2 can be increased as much as possible to facilitate the humidifying strip 2 to absorb more water, and then to facilitate evaporation of more water to humidify the air, and both ends of the humidifying strip 2 can fully extend to the bottom of the water storage chamber 141 to fully absorb water, so that the water at both ends can quickly spread to the middle of the humidifying strip 2. It should be noted that the shape and size of the humidifying strip 2 are not limited to those described in this embodiment, and can be flexibly designed according to actual specific conditions.

[0061] And / or, the depth of the water storage chamber 141 is greater than twice the depth of the connecting chamber, that is, the depth of the water storage chamber 141 is increased as much as possible to facilitate the storage of more water, and then to facilitate the evaporation of more water. At the same time, the depth of the supporting groove 13 defined by the two water storage parts 12 and the box frame part 11 can be made larger, so that the area relative to the left and right side surfaces of the heater 3 and the two inner side surfaces of the water storage part 12 is larger, thereby facilitating a more stable installation of the humidification box on the heater 3.

[0062] Specific as Figure 2 As shown, the depth of the water storage chamber 141 is greater than twice the depth of the connecting chamber. In actual design, the depth of the water storage chamber 141 and the depth of the connecting chamber can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions and are not limited to those described in this embodiment.

[0063] In some embodiments, the air inlet hole 111 is disposed on a side wall of the supporting groove 13 to communicate with the air outlet hole 331 along a horizontal direction. That is to say, the air outlet hole 331 of the heater 3 can be set on the side, and the air outlet holes 331 can be set on both the left and right sides at the same time, and the air inlet hole 111 can be set on one side wall in the support groove 13, or on both side walls at the same time. At this time, when the humidification box is installed on the heater, the air inlet hole 111 on the side wall in the support groove 13 is opposite to the air outlet hole 331 on the side of the heater 3 and is connected in the horizontal direction, which is conducive to the hot air flowing out of the air outlet hole 331 on the side of the heater 3 entering the water storage chamber 141 through the air inlet hole 111, evaporating the water in the water storage chamber 141, and then the water vapor and hot air flow out from the second air outlet 121 and enter the external air to humidify and heat the external air. At the same time, the heat on the top of the heater 3 can be transferred to the connecting cavity to evaporate the humidification strip 2 after absorbing water in the connecting cavity, and after being converted into water vapor, it enters the external air to humidify the air.

[0064] In some embodiments, the box body 1 includes a lower shell 16 and a top cover 17, and the top cover 17 is detachably connected to the upper part of the lower shell 16 and defines a humidification space 14 with the lower shell 16, that is, the box body 1 can be flexibly disassembled as needed, specifically, as Figure 3As shown, the box body 1 is composed of a lower shell 16 and a top cover 17. The shapes and sizes of the lower shell 16 and the top cover 17 are adapted to each other so that the top cover 17 can be connected to the upper part of the lower shell 16 to form a sealed space, that is, a humidification space 14, wherein the two ends of the lower shell 16 are open upward, and moisture can be stored inside. An air inlet is provided in the middle of the lower shell 16, and an intermediate air outlet 112 corresponding to the air inlet is provided in the middle of the upper shell, and second air outlets 121 can be provided at the two ends of the lower shell 16, respectively. In this way, when the top cover 17 is connected to the upper part of the lower shell 16, the two ends of the lower shell 16 and the two ends of the top cover 17 jointly define a water storage chamber 141, and the middle of the lower shell 16 and the middle of the top cover 17 jointly define a connecting chamber.

[0065] In an actual design, the connection between the lower shell 16 and the top cover 17 can be set to be connected by a snap-on connection to increase the reliability and stability of the connection between the two, and to facilitate the disassembly and separation of the lower shell 16 and the top cover 17 for cleaning. Of course, the top cover 17 can also be directly covered on the upper part of the lower shell 16, or other connection methods can be selected, which are not limited to those described in this embodiment and can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

[0066] The humidifying strip 2 is disposed between the lower shell 16 and the top cover 17, and the supporting groove 13 is formed at the bottom of the lower shell 16. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the humidifying strip 2 is arranged between the lower shell 16 and the top cover 17, that is, it is arranged in the humidifying space 14. The top cover 17 covers the humidifying strip 2 to limit the humidifying strip 2 from bulging upward after absorbing water, and prevents heat from dissipating, thereby reducing the efficiency of air humidification. The bottoms of both ends of the lower shell 16 extend downward for a certain distance to form a supporting groove 13, and the lower shell 16 is installed on the heater 3 through the supporting groove 13.

[0067] It should be understood that when the user does not need the top cover 17, that is, when the box body 1 is not provided with the top cover 17, humidification of the air can also be achieved.

[0068] In some embodiments, the air inlet of the heater 3 can be set on the side, that is, the cold air can pass through the side air inlet into the interior of the heater 3 to heat the cold air, or the air inlet is also set on the bottom and side of the heater 3 at the same time to increase the flow rate of cold air entering the interior of the heater 3, which is conducive to quickly generating more hot air to warm up the environment. Among them, the air inlet can be set on one side of the heater 3, or the air inlet can be set on both the left and right sides at the same time. The specific setting position of the air inlet can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

The water vapor passes through the air outlet holes on the box body 1 and enters into the external air, thereby humidifying the air. Moreover, since the humidification box and the heater 3 are separately arranged, no other electric heating devices are required.
