[0019] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] In the embodiments of the present utility model, if there are directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...), they are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement conditions between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0021] In addition, in the present utility model, descriptions such as "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the portable micro air pump of the embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing.

[0023] Inside the housing, there are provided a centrifugal fan unit, a scroll air compressor unit, a motor, and an air flow channel. The housing is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The centrifugal fan unit includes a centrifugal air chamber and a centrifugal impeller disposed in the centrifugal air chamber. The scroll air compressor unit includes a scroll chamber and a scroll disk disposed in the scroll chamber. The motor drives the centrifugal impeller and the scroll disk. The housing, the centrifugal air chamber, and the scroll chamber can be made of ABS material.

[0024] In specific implementation, the number of motors can also be set to 2, which respectively control the centrifugal fan unit and the scroll air compressor unit; preferably, the number of motors is 1. After testing, the noise during the operation of the present utility model is ≤30dB, and the air supply pressure is greater than 3.5Kpa.

[0025] The air inlet is correspondingly communicated with the centrifugal air chamber, and the air outlet is correspondingly communicated with the scroll chamber. The air flow channel communicates the centrifugal air chamber and the scroll chamber to ensure smooth air flow without obstruction and reduce energy loss.

[0026] The centrifugal fan unit is responsible for sucking air from the air inlet and initially accelerating the air to form an air flow with a certain flow rate; the scroll air compressor unit receives this air flow and realizes the efficient compression of the air through the relative movement of the scroll disk, and finally outputs high-pressure gas through the air outlet.

[0027] As an implementation manner, the air inlet is disposed at one end of the housing, and the air inlet is annular. The annular design is more beautiful and is more conducive to air intake.

[0028] As an implementation manner, the air outlet is disposed at the other end of the housing, and the motor is disposed between the centrifugal fan unit and the scroll air compressor unit.

[0029] As an implementation manner, a control board and a battery are provided inside the housing. The control board is electrically connected to the motor and the battery. The battery supplies power to the control board and the motor. The control board adjusts the working states of the centrifugal fan unit and the scroll air compressor unit according to actual needs to achieve precise control of the air pressure output.

[0030] As an implementation manner, a control switch is provided on the housing, and the control switch is electrically connected to the control board. The control switch facilitates user operation to turn on or off the portable micro air pump.

[0031] As an implementation manner, an LED lamp is provided inside the housing, and the LED lamp is electrically connected to the control board. The LED lamp is used to realize the lighting and flashing functions, providing additional convenience for night or emergency situations.

[0032] As an implementation manner, a USB port is provided on the housing, and the USB port is electrically connected to the control board. The USB port facilitates the user to charge the battery or directly supply power from an external power source to the motor to drive the fan and the scroll disk.

[0033] The utility model can significantly improve the wind pressure output. The combination of the air duct design and the appearance design ensures the beautiful appearance under the requirements of wind pressure and air volume, meeting the demand for high-pressure gas of micro devices. The structure of the utility model is compact, facilitating installation and use in a limited space. The utility model has low energy consumption, high efficiency, and stable and reliable operation. The noise of the utility model is well controlled, improving the user experience.
