[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to achieve. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be achieved, it should be considered that the combination of such technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, the present application provides an overflow and air outlet structure of a handheld dehumidifier, which mainly includes: a shell 1, a dehumidification port 11 is provided at the upper end, an overflow port 16 is provided at the bottom end, and exhaust slots 17 are provided on both sides of the bottom end; a separation chamber 2, detachably arranged on the shell 1, for storing liquid; a guide part 3, arranged inside the separation chamber 2, for guiding the flow of liquid and gas; a motor 4, arranged inside the shell 1; a fan 5, installed on the output shaft of the motor 4, for sucking liquid from the dehumidification port 11 into the separation chamber 2 through the guide part 3.

[0024] Specifically, when the motor 4 starts to rotate, the negative pressure caused by the fan 5 will cause the dehumidification port 11 to start to absorb liquid. When the liquid enters the dehumidification port 11, it will enter the separation chamber 2 along the guide channel 12 and the guide part 3. When the liquid enters the air inlet channel 13 due to factors such as shaking, the liquid will be sucked onto the air inlet end 131 under the action of the fan 5 and discharged out of the air inlet end 131. Under the action of gravity, it will flow to the overflow port 16 and will not be discharged from the exhaust port 17 to prevent the liquid from splashing onto people.

[0025] Some preferred / improved embodiments based on the above embodiments will be described below. Any one of the following embodiments may be selected, or multiple embodiments may be selected and combined.

[0026] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the shell 1 also includes a guide channel 12 and an air inlet channel 13. The guide channel 12 is arranged in the input direction of the dehumidification port 11, and the air inlet channel 13 is arranged in the output direction of the fan 5. This arrangement provides a directional design of the guide channel 12 and the air inlet channel 13 and ensures the smoothness and efficiency of the air flow.

[0027] Specifically, in order to enable the separation chamber 2 to play a transfer effect, when the separation chamber 2 is installed on the shell 1, the two ends of the guide part 3 are respectively connected to the guide channel 12 and the air inlet channel 13.

[0028] Specifically, in order to convert the rotating wind force of the fan 5 into the maximum suction force, an air inlet end 131 is formed at one end of the air inlet channel 13 close to the fan 5, and in order to prevent the liquid sucked into the air inlet channel 13 from being directly sucked into the motor 4, the air inlet end 131 is spaced apart from the fan 5.

[0029] Preferably, the separation bin 2 further includes an unlocking button 21 and a drain plug 22, wherein the unlocking button 21 is arranged above the separation bin 2, and the drain plug 22 is arranged on the outside of the separation bin 2, so that the separation bin 2 can be disassembled and the water can be drained.

[0030] Furthermore, at least a portion of the unlocking button 21 extends upward to cooperate with the shell 1. This arrangement allows the extended portion of the unlocking button 21 to play a fixing role when inserted into the shell 1, thereby preventing the separation chamber 2 from falling off the shell 1.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the extended portion of the unlocking button 21 always exerts force upward and does not fall off due to non-human forces without human intervention, a spring 23 is provided at the bottom end of the unlocking button 21 .

[0032] Reference Figure 1 As shown, it is characterized in that a handle 14 is formed at one end of the shell 1 away from the installation of the separation chamber 2. This arrangement optimizes the holding experience when using the dehumidifier.

[0033] Preferably, a start button 15 is provided on the outer side of the handle 14 so that the user can start and stop the motor 4 when using the dehumidifier.
