Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of humidifiers, and more specifically, to the technical field of an anti-blocking air humidifier. Background Art

[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance that increases the humidity of a room. Humidifiers are mainly divided into two types: household humidifiers and industrial humidifiers according to their uses. Household humidifiers generally adopt direct evaporation humidifiers, and direct evaporation humidifiers are usually also called pure humidifiers. The pure humidification technology is a new technology just adopted in the humidification field. The pure humidifier removes calcium and magnesium ions in water through molecular sieve evaporation technology, completely solving the "white powder" problem.

[0003] The hot evaporation humidifier is also called an electrothermal humidifier. Its working principle is to heat water to 100 degrees in a heating element to generate water vapor, and a blower is used to send out the vapor. The following technologies have been disclosed in existing patents:

[0004] The patent with the publication number CN114838425A and the patent name "A Humidifier" discloses the following content: The humidifier includes: a water tank, and a fog guiding channel is arranged on the water tank; an atomization assembly, which is arranged below the water tank and is communicated with the fog guiding channel; a fog outlet assembly, which is arranged above the water tank and is communicated with the fog guiding channel. The fog outlet assembly includes: a first fog outlet member, a second fog outlet member and an opening and closing member. The second fog outlet member is rotatably arranged on the first fog outlet member and is in transmission connection with the opening and closing member. A first fog outlet channel is arranged on the first fog outlet member, and a second fog outlet channel is arranged on the second fog outlet member. Thus, by rotatably arranging the second fog outlet member on the first fog outlet, and being in transmission connection with the opening and closing member, arranging the first fog outlet channel on the first fog outlet member, and arranging the second fog outlet channel on the second fog outlet member, the second fog outlet member can be operated to realize the selective opening and closing of the first fog outlet channel and the second fog outlet channel by the opening and closing member, making the switching of the fog outlet channel of the humidifier more convenient and reliable.

[0005] The patent with the publication number CN116398955A and the patent name "A Humidifier" discloses the following content: A humidifier includes a main body and an atomization component. An accommodation cavity and a first installation cavity are formed inside the main body, and the accommodation cavity and the first installation cavity are not communicated. The atomization component is detachably installed in the accommodation cavity. When the atomization component is installed in the accommodation cavity, a water cavity is formed between the inner wall of the main body and the outer wall of the atomization component. In the present invention, by arranging the atomization component in the main body and combining the main body and the atomization component of the humidifier, the process of replenishing the water in the water cavity to the atomization cavity, and the process of the water turning into steam in the atomization cavity and then entering the atomization component are all carried out in the accommodation cavity, thereby effectively solving the water leakage problem of the humidifier. The water cavity is directly formed between the inner wall of the main body and the outer wall of the atomization component, and the atomization component is directly installed into the accommodation cavity of the main body, forming a nested structure, which fully saves the occupied space of the humidifier.

[0006] Therefore, the existing electric heating humidifiers and the humidifiers disclosed in the above patent are the simplest humidification methods, but the disadvantages are high energy consumption, inability to dry burn, low safety factor, and easy scaling on the heater. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide an anti-blocking air humidifier in order to solve the technical problem of easy scaling on the heater.

[0008] The present utility model specifically adopts the following technical solutions to achieve the above purpose:

[0009] The present utility model provides an anti-blocking air humidifier, which includes a housing with an upward opening, a cover body arranged on the top of the housing, a steam outlet arranged on the cover body, a heating cavity arranged in the upper part of the housing, and a control cavity arranged in the lower part of the housing;

[0010] An adiabatic partition cavity is detachably arranged inside the heating cavity. The adiabatic partition cavity divides the heating cavity into an external water inlet cavity and an internal steam cavity. The height of the bottom of the water inlet cavity is higher than the height of the bottom of the steam cavity. A first anti-blocking conduction member for preventing scale blockage is arranged at the bottom of the water inlet cavity, and a second anti-blocking conduction member for preventing scale blockage is arranged at the bottom of the steam cavity. The first anti-blocking conduction member and the second anti-blocking conduction member are connected through a pipeline located in the control cavity;

[0011] The water outlet position of the first anti-blocking conduction member is higher than the height of the bottom of the water inlet cavity, and the water inlet position of the second anti-blocking conduction member is higher than the height of the bottom of the steam cavity.

[0012] Specifically, since the water outlet position of the first anti-blocking and conducting component is higher than the height of the bottom of the water inlet cavity, and the water inlet position of the second anti-blocking and conducting component is higher than the height of the bottom of the steam cavity, when impurities and scale deposit at the bottom of the steam cavity and the bottom of the water inlet cavity, due to the height difference, it effectively avoids the first anti-blocking and conducting component and the second anti-blocking and conducting component from being blocked by the scale substances at the bottom. The use of the first anti-blocking and conducting component and the second anti-blocking and conducting component has the advantage of increasing the service life of the equipment.

[0013] The adiabatic partition cavity divides the traditional heating cavity into two cavities, the external water inlet cavity and the internal steam cavity, making the temperature of the water body in the water inlet cavity relatively low during the operation of the humidifier. Since the amount of water to be heated is reduced and the heating plate mainly heats the steam cavity, it can increase the heating speed, improve the efficiency during use, and save energy.

[0014] By setting the adiabatic partition cavity to separate the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity, it can also reduce the heat transfer speed of the water body temperature between the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the humidifier.

[0015] In one embodiment, a water outlet through hole communicating with the control cavity is provided at the bottom of the steam cavity. The first anti-blocking and conducting component is a vertically arranged water outlet pipe communicating with the water outlet through hole, and the length of the water outlet pipe is 0.5 - 1 cm.

[0016] In one embodiment, a water inlet through hole communicating with the control cavity is provided at the bottom of the steam cavity. The second anti-blocking and conducting component is a bent pipe assembly communicating with the water inlet through hole. The bent pipe assembly is a U-shaped bent pipe with an opening downward. There is a length difference between the two side pipes of the U-shaped bent pipe, and the end of the longer side pipe of the U-shaped bent pipe communicates with the water inlet through hole.

[0017] In one embodiment, there is a length difference of 0.5 - 1.2 cm between the two side pipes of the U-shaped bent pipe, and the end of the longer side pipe of the U-shaped bent pipe is fixedly and sealedly communicated with the water inlet through hole by welding.

[0018] In one embodiment, it further includes a PLC controller, a heating plate for heating the bottom of the steam cavity, and a temperature sensor provided at the bottom of the steam cavity, all of which are arranged in the control cavity. The heating plate and the temperature sensor are both electrically connected to the PLC controller.

[0019] Specifically, when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the steam cavity is too high, higher than the set temperature (100 °C), the steam cavity is in a state of water shortage and dry burning. The water shortage and dry burning signal is transmitted to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller controls the heating plate to stop heating to avoid equipment damage caused by dry burning.

[0020] In one embodiment, the heating cavity is a cylindrical heating cavity. A circular groove is formed by the middle part of the cylindrical heating cavity sinking downward. The adiabatic partition cavity is a circular cavity matching the shape of the circular groove, and a sealing ring is arranged between the adiabatic partition cavity and the circular groove in contact with each other.

[0021] In one embodiment, the adiabatic partition cavity is a double-layer heat insulation cavity with both ends penetrating. A sealed cover body is arranged at the top of the double-layer heat insulation cavity, and an arc-shaped air guide pipe communicating with the steam outlet connecting pipe is arranged on the sealed cover body.

[0022] In one embodiment, the cover body is detachably installed on the top of the outer shell, and a sealing ring is arranged at the connection between the cover body and the outer shell.

[0023] In one embodiment, a part of the steam outlet is located at the top of the outer shell, and the other part is located on the cover body.

[0024] In one embodiment, a power cord, a start button and a handle are arranged on the outer shell. The power cord is connected to an external power supply, the start button is electrically connected to the PLC controller, and the handle is hinged at the top of the side wall of the outer shell.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0026] 1. The design of the present utility model is reasonable. When impurities and scale are deposited at the bottom of the steam cavity and the bottom of the water inlet cavity, due to the height difference, it effectively avoids the first anti-blocking conduction part and the second anti-blocking conduction part from being blocked by the scale substances at the bottom. The use of the first anti-blocking conduction part and the second anti-blocking conduction part has the advantage of increasing the service life of the equipment.

[0027] 2. The adiabatic partition cavity divides the traditional heating cavity into two cavities, the external water inlet cavity and the internal steam cavity, so that the temperature of the water body in the water inlet cavity is relatively low during the operation of the humidifier. Since the amount of water to be heated is reduced and the heating plate mainly heats the steam cavity, the heating rate can be increased, the efficiency during use can be improved, and energy can be saved.

[0028] 3. By arranging the adiabatic partition cavity to separate the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity, the transfer speed of the water body temperature between the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity can also be reduced, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the humidifier.

The use of the first anti - clogging conduction part 1 and the second anti - clogging conduction part 2 has the advantage of increasing the service life of the device.

[0044] The adiabatic partition cavity 4 divides the traditional heating cavity into two cavities, an external water inlet cavity and an internal steam cavity, making the temperature of the water body in the water inlet cavity relatively low during the operation of the humidifier. Since the amount of water to be heated is reduced and the heating disk mainly heats the steam cavity, it can increase the heating speed, improve the efficiency during use, and save energy.

[0045] By arranging the adiabatic partition cavity 4 to separate the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity, it can also reduce the heat transfer speed of the water body temperature between the water inlet cavity and the steam cavity, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the humidifier.

A first anti-blocking conduction member 1 for preventing scale blockage is arranged at the bottom of the water inlet cavity, and a second anti-blocking conduction member 2 for preventing scale blockage is arranged at the bottom of the steam cavity. The first anti-blocking conduction member 1 and the second anti-blocking conduction member 2 are connected through a pipeline located in the control cavity;

[0049] The water outlet position of the first anti-blocking conduction member 1 is higher than the height of the bottom of the water inlet cavity, and the water inlet position of the second anti-blocking conduction member 2 is higher than the height of the bottom of the steam cavity.

[0050] At the bottom of the steam cavity, a water outlet through hole communicating with the control cavity is arranged.
