[0074] The first light guide portion 3 includes a first light shielding plate 34, a first light source 31, a first light guide structural member 32 and a first light guide structural body 33. The first light shielding plate 34 is arranged on one side of the inner ring of the air outlet grille 21 and is arranged along the circumference of the inner ring of the air outlet grille 21. The first light source 31 is arranged between the first light shielding plate 34 and the air outlet grille 21, is arranged along the circumference of the inner ring of the air outlet grille 21, and is opposite to the first light shielding plate 34. The first light source 31 irradiates light toward the first light shielding plate 34. The first light guide structural member 32 is arranged between the first light shielding plate 34 and the first light source 31, is arranged along the circumference of the inner ring of the air outlet grille 21, and the first light guide structural member 32 extends radially toward the first light shielding plate 34 to form a light guide extension portion 321. The light guide extension portion 321 avoids the first light source 31 in the radial direction of the first light guide structural member 32. The first light guide structure body 33 is contracted from one end to the other end to form a funnel-shaped structure with a contracted end and an expanded end. The expanded end of the first light guide structure body 33 is connected to the expanded end of the air outlet top cover 1, and the contracted end of the first light guide structure body 33 abuts against the light guide extension portion 321 of the first light guide structural member 32.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first light guide structure body 33 is arranged in the air outlet cavity, which can produce a luminous effect in the air outlet cavity, thereby improving the overall aesthetics of the humidifier, especially when the humidifier is working, the misty airflow flows into the air outlet cavity from the air outlet grille 21, covers the first light guide structure body 33, and the light emitted by the first light guide structure body 33 is mapped into the misty airflow, which will obtain a higher light effect. At the same time, the light guide extension part 321 used for guiding light to the first light guide structure body 33 is arranged to avoid the first light source 31, so that the light emitted by the first light source 31 cannot be directly projected into the first light guide structure body 33, thereby making the light emitted by the first light guide structure body 33 into the misty airflow softer, further improving the visual effect of the humidifier, and avoiding direct light causing discomfort to the user's eyes.

[0076] In some embodiments, the air outlet grille 21 is annular, which means that the middle of the air outlet grille is hollow and is used to install the air outlet top cover 1 or Figure 2 The inner ring profile and the outer ring profile of the drive chamber 6 in the embodiment of the present invention can be any shape. For example, the outer ring profile is square and the inner ring profile is circular.

[0077] In some embodiments, the first light-shielding plate 34, the first light source 31, and the first light-guiding structural member 32 in the first light-guiding portion 3 may be arranged as a complete ring, may be arranged as a part of a ring, such as a ring sector, or may be arranged as several spaced-apart parts. The first light-shielding plate 34, the first light source 31, and the first light-guiding structural member 32 may be arranged in the same or different ways.

[0078] In some embodiments, the air flow released by the humidifier may be white and foggy or colorless, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 shown, the first light-guiding structural member 32 is provided with a light-blocking groove 322 along the edge of the light-guiding extension portion 321, and the first light-shielding plate 34 extends into the light-blocking groove 322.

[0080] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, extending the first light-shielding plate 34 into the light-blocking groove 322 can prevent light leakage at the part where the first light-shielding plate 34 is in contact with the main body 33 of the first light-guiding structure, so that all the light projected onto the air flow in the air outlet cavity is emitted from the main body 33 of the first light-guiding structure, making the light more uniform.

[0081] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, a circular first accommodation groove 212 with a notch facing the air outlet top cover 1 is formed in the inner ring of the air outlet grille 21. A first light source 31, a first light-guiding structural member 32, and a first light-shielding plate 34 are sequentially arranged from the bottom of the first accommodation groove 212 to the notch. A circular sealing piece 22 for closing the notch is arranged at the notch of the first accommodation groove 212, and the first light-guiding structural member 32 and the main body 33 of the first light-guiding structure guide light with the sealing piece 22 therebetween.

[0082] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, arranging the first light source 31, the first light-guiding structural member 32, and the first light-shielding plate 34 in the first accommodation groove 212 and sealing the first accommodation groove 212 with the sealing piece 22 can effectively isolate the first light source 31 from the humid air flow in the air outlet cavity, avoid the moisture in the air flow from having an adverse effect on the first light source 31, improve the service life and stability of the first light source 31. At the same time, the sealing piece 22 is light-transmissive and will not affect the light transmission between the first light-guiding structural member 32 and the main body 33 of the first light-guiding structure.

[0083] In some embodiments, the sealing piece 22 may be a PET waterproof film (i.e., polyethylene terephthalate), which can withstand high temperatures and is insulating.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the first light source 31 includes an annular circuit board and LED lamp beads arranged at intervals along the circuit board. The first light guide structure 32 is provided with a cavity for accommodating these LED lamp beads, so as to guide all the light emitted by the LED lamp beads into the first light guide structure 32, avoiding waste of the light source and also avoiding light leakage.

[0085] The LED lamp beads can also be replaced with other light-emitting components, such as incandescent lamps, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0086] Figure 7 is Figure 5 the enlarged view at position B in Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the first light guide structure main body 33 includes a first fixing part 331. As Figure 5 、 Figure 7 shown, the first light guide structure main body 33 includes a plurality of second fixing parts 332.

[0087] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, the contraction end of the first light guide structure main body 33 extends radially inward to form an annular first fixing part 331. The first fixing part 331 is arranged between the inner ring edge of the air outlet grille 21 and the contraction end of the air outlet top cover 1, and the air outlet grille 21 and the air outlet top cover 1 clamp and fix the first fixing part 331.

[0088] As Figure 5 、 Figure 7 shown, the expansion end of the first light guide structure main body 33 protrudes towards the air outlet top cover 1 with a plurality of hollow cylinders to form second fixing parts 332. The second fixing parts 332 are inserted into the air outlet top cover 1 and fixed to the air outlet top cover 1 by bolts.

[0089] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, fixing the expansion end and the contraction end of the first light guide structure main body 33 at both ends of the air outlet top cover 1 respectively can prevent the interior of the air outlet top cover 1 from being invaded by humid air currents and rusting or breeding bacteria, effectively avoiding corrosion and mildew of the air outlet top cover 1. At the same time, the first light guide structure main body 33 is fixed by clamping, without the need to additionally add fixing parts, with a simple structure and convenient assembly.

[0090] In some embodiments, as Figure 5 、 Figure 7 shown, the expansion end of the air outlet top cover 1 is provided with a first sealing groove 111 facing the air outlet grille 21. A flexible sealing ring 113 is arranged in the first sealing groove 111, and the edge of the expansion end of the first light guide structure main body 33 is inserted into the first sealing groove 111 and abuts against the flexible sealing ring 113.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, by adding a flexible sealing ring 113 in the first sealing groove 111 , the sealing effect between the air outlet top cover 1 and the first light guide structure body 33 can be enhanced, thereby preventing water from entering the air outlet top cover 1 to the greatest extent.

[0092] The flexible sealing ring 113 can be a rubber ring or a flexible ring made of other materials. The cross section of the flexible sealing ring 113 is preferably set to be circular. The flexible sealing ring 113 and the first sealing groove 111 are interference fit.
