Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model specifically relates to the technical field of water level monitoring, and more specifically to a water level monitoring device for a dehumidifier. Background Technique

[0002] The water level monitoring device of the dehumidifier effectively monitors the waste water generated during the operation of the dehumidifier, preventing the water level inside the water tank from flowing to positions outside the dehumidifier when it is too high, which may cause damage to the indoor environment by the waste water. Through the water level monitoring device, the waste water generated during the operation of the dehumidifier is effectively discharged regularly to prevent pollution inside the water tank.

[0003] Currently, the water tanks equipped in traditional dehumidifiers all need to achieve the discharge effect manually. When draining water, the dehumidifier cannot operate normally. After putting the water tank back, the dehumidifier also needs to be restarted, which results in low work efficiency of the dehumidifier and cannot work continuously for a long time.

[0004] In view of the above situation, we provide a water level monitoring device for a dehumidifier. In this device, a semi-circular plate is provided at the top of the water tank, a sleeve is provided at the bottom of the semi-circular plate, a sliding rod is provided inside the sleeve, a first armature is installed at the top of the sliding rod. When the waste water enters the box body, the sliding rod will move upward with the rising water level. When it moves to a certain position, the first armature contacts the second armature at the bottom of the support plate, realizing the start of the water pump inside the mounting frame. The water pump effectively extracts the waste water inside the box body through the connecting water pipe and then discharges it outside the dehumidifier through the drain pipe. In this way, when monitoring the water level, the drainage component can effectively discharge the waste water inside the box body automatically, achieving the effect of continuous operation of the dehumidifier. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a water level monitoring device for a dehumidifier. In this device, the waste water generated inside the dehumidifier enters the box body through the water inlet pipe. As the water level inside the box body rises, it drives the sliding rod to move upward. When the sliding rod moves upward along the sleeve, the first armature also moves. When it moves to a certain position, the first armature contacts the second armature, realizing the connection of the water pump circuit. The water pump effectively extracts the waste water inside the box body through the connecting water pipe and then discharges it outside the dehumidifier effectively through the drain pipe. In this way, when in use, it can effectively ensure that the dehumidifier can continuously work while monitoring the waste water, so as to solve the problems in the above background technique.

[0027] A notch on one side of the box body 10 is fitted and installed with a drainage assembly 2; the drainage assembly 2 includes a mounting frame 20; a water pump 22 is arranged inside the mounting frame 20; a support plate 21 is fitted and installed on the top of the mounting frame 20 through a support rod; a second armature 25 is arranged at one end of the bottom of the support plate 21 away from the support rod;

[0028] Specifically, a connecting water pipe 15 is arranged at the rear side of the box body 10; the connecting water pipe 15 is connected to the water pump 22; the water pump 22 is also connected to a drain pipe 23; the drain pipe 23 extends to the outside of the dehumidifier;

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the box body 10 is placed on one side of the mounting frame 20, and the wastewater generated when the dehumidifier is working flows into the box body 10 through the water inlet pipe 3. As the water level inside the box body 10 rises, the water surface drives the sliding rod 17 to move upward along the sleeve 16. During the upward movement of the sliding rod 17, the first armature 18 moves upward. When the water level reaches a certain height, the first armature 18 contacts the second armature 25 at the top, thereby turning on the circuit of the water pump 22, and the wastewater inside the box body 10 is discharged through the water pump 22;

[0030] Symmetric clamping plates 14 are arranged on one side of the box body 10 close to the mounting frame 20; the clamping plates 14 are arranged in an L shape;

[0031] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 20 is embedded in a notch on one side of the box body 10, and clamping grooves 24 matching the clamping plates 14 are arranged on both sides;

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, when placing the water storage tank 1, the clamping plates 14 on one side of the box body 10 cooperate with the clamping grooves 24 arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 20 in the drainage assembly 2, which can effectively ensure that when there is a relatively large amount of water inside the box body 10 but it has not reached the drainage standard, the box body 10 will not be separated from the mounting frame 20, ensuring effective monitoring of the water level inside the box body 10;

[0033] In this embodiment, the box body 10 and the top plate 13 are detachably installed. Symmetric handles 11 are arranged on one side of the box body 10 away from the mounting frame 20; a groove facilitating the installation of the water inlet pipe 3 is also opened on the top plate 13;

[0034] In this embodiment, the second armature 25 is connected to the controller and the water pump 22 through a wire; the position of the second armature 25 is fixed;

[0036] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: When in use, the box body 10 is placed on one side of the mounting rack 20. The wastewater generated during the operation of the dehumidifier flows into the box body 10 through the water inlet pipe 3. As the water level inside the box body 10 rises, the water surface drives the sliding rod 17 to move upward along the sleeve 16. During the upward movement of the sliding rod 17, the first armature 18 moves upward. When the water level reaches a certain height, the first armature 18 contacts the second armature 25 at the top, turning on the circuit of the water pump 22, and the wastewater inside the box body 10 is discharged through the water pump 22;

[0037] When placing the water storage tank 1, the clamping plate 14 on one side of the box body 10 cooperates with the clamping grooves 24 provided on both sides of the mounting rack 20 in the drainage assembly 2. In this way, it can effectively ensure that there is a relatively large amount of water inside the box body 10, but when the drainage standard is not reached, the box body 10 will not be separated from the mounting rack 20, ensuring effective monitoring of the water level inside the box body 10;

[0038] During long-term use, the inside of the box body 10 will be contaminated. In this way, the box body 10 is separated from the mounting rack 20 through the handle 11, and the top plate 13 is disassembled to effectively clean the inside of the box body 10.
