Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of air humidifying devices, and particularly to a humidifier. Background Art

[0002] A humidifier is a widely used household or commercial air humidity regulating device. It utilizes the principle of high-speed ultrasonic oscillation to turn water droplets into extremely tiny water mist under the action of high-frequency ultrasonic oscillation and disperse the water mist into the environment to increase the humidity of the ambient air.

[0003] In the current structure of humidifiers, the upper water filling mode is mostly adopted. Specifically, the water tank and the base are designed to be separated. In this way, not only is it easy for water to overflow from the connection gap between the water tank and the base, but also the float structure is relatively complex and prone to damage, resulting in inaccurate water level control.

[0050] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there can also be an intermediate element. If an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. If so, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "up", "down", "left", "right", and similar expressions used in this application are only for the purpose of illustration and do not represent the only implementation.

[0051] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in [relevant reference], an embodiment of this application provides a humidifier 100, which includes a box body 10, a partition member 20, and a control assembly 30. The box body 10 has a receiving cavity 11. The partition member 20 is disposed in the receiving cavity 11 and divides the receiving cavity 11 into a water storage cavity 12 and an atomization cavity 13. An installation opening (not shown in the figure) is formed on the partition member 20. The control assembly 30 includes a first component 31 and a second component 32. The first component 31 is hermetically disposed in the installation opening, and an over-flow channel 33 communicating the water storage cavity 12 and the atomization cavity 13 is formed inside the first component 31. The second component 32 is movably disposed on the first component 31 and has an open position for opening the over-flow channel 33 and a closed position for closing the over-flow channel 33.

[0052] It should be noted that the interior of the box body 10 is hollow to form the receiving cavity 11, which can be used to store liquids such as water, so as to atomize the liquid and finally achieve the atomization effect.

[0053] The partition member 20 can be set as a partition plate, which is vertically arranged in the accommodation cavity 11. The accommodation cavity 11 is divided into two left and right sub-cavities by the partition plate, namely a water storage cavity 12 and an atomization cavity 13. It can be understood that the partition plate is hermetically connected to the cavity wall of the accommodation cavity 11, and an installation opening is formed on the partition plate, so that the water storage cavity 12 and the atomization cavity 13 can only communicate through the installation opening.

[0054] Specifically, an atomizer is arranged in the atomization cavity 13. During use, water or other liquid to be atomized is stored in the water storage cavity 12, and water is supplied from the water storage cavity 12 to the atomization cavity 13, so that the water level in the atomization cavity 13 reaches the target value, facilitating the atomizer to better atomize the liquid in the atomization cavity 13.

[0055] Furthermore, the control assembly 30 refers to a structure that can be used to control the water level in the atomization cavity 13. The control assembly 30 includes a first component 31 and a second component 32. The first component 31 is hermetically arranged in the installation opening, and an over-flow channel 33 is formed inside the first component 31. In this way, the liquid in the water storage cavity 12 can only enter the atomization cavity 13 through the over-flow channel 33.

[0056] The second component 32 can move relative to the first component 31 and switch between an open position and a closed position. When the second component 32 is in the open position, the over-flow channel 33 is opened. At this time, the water storage cavity 12 and the atomization cavity 13 are communicated through the over-flow channel 33, enabling the water storage cavity 12 to add water to the atomization cavity 13, and the water level in the atomization cavity 13 rises.

[0057] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, when the water level in the atomization cavity 13 rises to the target value, the second component 32 is controlled to switch from the open position to the closed position. At this time, the over-flow channel 33 is disconnected, and the water storage cavity 12 and the atomization cavity 13 are separated from each other, thus stopping the water addition.

[0058] In addition, during the water addition process, even if the over-flow channel 33 is not closed in time, when the water level in the atomization cavity 13 is too high and the same as the water level in the water storage cavity 12, due to the communication effect of the over-flow channel 33, a liquid seal effect can also be achieved, that is, when the water levels in the atomization cavity 13 and the water storage cavity 12 are equal, the water level stops rising. In this way, it can better avoid the water level in the atomization cavity 13 being too high.

[0059] Thus, by providing the partition member 20, the accommodation chamber 11 is partitioned into an independent water storage chamber 12 and an atomization chamber 13. The water storage chamber 12 can be used to store liquid, and the atomization chamber 13 can atomize the liquid therein to achieve a humidifying effect. Further, by providing the first member 31 and the second member 32, the water level in the atomization chamber 13 can be better controlled. When the flow-through channel 33 is opened, a communication structure is formed between the water storage chamber 12 and the atomization chamber 13 through the flow-through channel 33. When the water level in the atomization chamber 13 rises to be equal to the water level in the water storage chamber 12, liquid sealing can be achieved, and the control of the water level in the atomization chamber 13 can be better realized, improving the control accuracy.

[0060] In some embodiments, the first member 31 is configured as a first pipe, the second member 32 is configured as a second pipe, and is rotatably disposed on the first pipe around the axial direction of the first pipe, and has an open position and a closed position during rotation.

[0061] Specifically, the shape of the mounting opening on the partition member 20 is set to be circular and matches the outer diameter of the first pipe, so that the first pipe can be sealingly disposed in the mounting opening. The caliber of the second pipe is set to match the first pipe, so that the second pipe can be better docked with the first pipe, and the second pipe can rotate around the axial direction of the first pipe.

[0062] By the relative rotation of the second pipe with respect to the first pipe, it can be switched between the open position and the closed position to realize the on-off of the first pipe.

[0063] Through the above structure, a stable connection between the first member 31 and the second member 32 is achieved, and the second member 32 can be smoothly switched between the open position and the closed position by rotation, which is convenient for operation.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, a first snap ring 34 is circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the first pipe, a second snap ring 35 is circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the second pipe, and the first snap ring 34 and the second snap ring 35 are snap-connected to each other and are configured to enable the second pipe to rotate relative to the first pipe around the axial direction of the first pipe.

[0065] Specifically, when the first pipe is sealingly disposed in the mounting opening, one end of the first pipe is located in the water storage chamber 12, and the other end is located in the atomization chamber 13. A first snap ring 34 is circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the end of the first pipe located in the atomization chamber 13, and the first snap ring 34 and the second snap ring 35 circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the second pipe are snap-connected to each other, so that the first pipe can be connected to the second pipe.

[0066] Since the first snap ring 34 and the second snap ring 35 are respectively wound around the outer circumferences of the first pipe and the second pipe, when the first pipe and the second pipe are clamped to each other through the first snap ring 34 and the second snap ring 35, the first pipe and the second pipe are limited axially along the first pipe, and circumferentially, the first pipe and the second pipe can rotate relative to each other.

[0067] Thereby, the second pipe can rotate relative to the first pipe around the axis of the first pipe so as to smoothly switch between the open position and the closed position.

[0068] Through the above structure, not only can the clamping fit between the first pipe and the second pipe be realized, but also the relative rotation between the two can be realized, and the on-off of the flow passage 33 can be smoothly realized.

[0069] In some embodiments, a first end plate 36 is provided at one end of the first pipe facing the second pipe, a first opening 37 is formed on the first end plate 36, a second end plate 38 is provided at one end of the second pipe facing the first pipe, and a second opening 39 is formed on the second end plate 38. When the second pipe is in the open position, the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are oppositely arranged and communicate with each other. When the second pipe is in the closed position, the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0070] Specifically, when the first pipe is hermetically arranged in the installation port, one end of the first pipe located in the atomization chamber 13 faces the second pipe, and a first end plate 36 is provided at the opening at the end facing the second pipe, and a first opening 37 is formed on the first end plate 36.

[0071] A second end plate 38 is provided at the opening at one end of the second pipe facing the first pipe, and a second opening 39 is formed on the second end plate 38.

[0072] Among them, the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 can be set as semicircular holes that cooperate with each other. When the second pipe rotates to the open position, the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are oppositely arranged and communicate with each other, and at this time the flow passage 33 is conducted. When the second pipe rotates to the closed position, the first opening 37 faces the unopened position on the second end plate 38, and the second opening 39 faces the unopened position on the first end plate 36, that is, the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are arranged in a staggered manner, so that the flow passage 33 is disconnected.

[0073] It can be understood that the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 can also be set in other shapes, for example, set as a plurality of circular holes. When the second pipe is in the open position, the plurality of circular holes in the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are aligned with each other to communicate. When the second pipe is in the closed position, the circular holes in the first opening 37 and the second opening 39 are staggered from each other, so that the flow passage 33 is disconnected.

[0074] With the above structure, when the second pipeline switches between the open position and the closed position by rotation, the on-off of the flow passage 33 can be quickly realized.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second pipeline includes a first section 321 and a second section 322 that are interconnected. One end of the first section 321 facing away from the second section 322 is connected to the first pipeline, and the axial directions of the first section 321 and the second section 322 are intersecting. When the second pipeline is in the open position, the opening on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 is arranged downward. When the second pipeline is in the closed position, the opening on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 is arranged upward.

[0076] Specifically, the first pipeline is set as a straight pipeline, and the second pipeline is set as a bent pipeline. Among them, the second pipeline includes a first section 321 and a second section 322 that are intersecting, and one end of the first section 321 facing away from the second section 322 is clamped and matched with the first pipeline, so that the first section 321 and the first pipeline are coaxially arranged.

[0077] During the process of the first section 321 rotating around the axial direction, the second pipeline switches between the open position and the closed position. When the second pipeline is in the open position, the opening on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 is arranged downward, that is, the second section 322 is bent downward, so that the water in the water storage cavity 12 can better flow into the atomization cavity 13 through the flow passage 33 and the second pipeline.

[0078] When the second pipeline is in the closed position, the opening on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 is arranged upward, that is, the second section 322 is bent upward.

[0079] In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a limiting member 40 and a floating member 50. The limiting member 40 is arranged at the bottom of the atomization cavity 13, and a limiting space 60 communicating with the atomization cavity 13 is formed inside the limiting member 40. The floating member 50 is arranged in the limiting space 60. When the second pipeline is in the open position, the opening on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 faces the limiting space 60.

[0080] Specifically, the limiting member 40 can limit the floating member 50 in the limiting space 60, so that the floating member 50 can only move up and down under the action of buoyancy in the limiting space 60. In addition, since the limiting space 60 communicates with the atomization cavity 13, the water in the atomization cavity 13 can smoothly enter the limiting space 60, so that the floating member 50 can move up and down under the influence of buoyancy in the limiting space 60.

[0081] Further, when the second pipe is in the open position, the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 is arranged with the opening facing downwards and towards the limiting space 60. Thus, during the process that the water in the water storage cavity 12 flows into the atomization cavity 13 through the flow passage 33 and the second pipe, the water level in the atomization cavity 13 gradually rises, causing the floating member 50 to gradually rise with the water level in the limiting space 60. When at least a part of the floating member 50 enters the second section 322, the floating member 50 can seal the opening of the second section 322, thereby disconnecting the flow passage 33 and stopping the water supply to the atomization cavity 13.

[0082] Thus, the floating member 50 can better control the water level in the atomization cavity 13, and the connection function between the floating member 50 and the flow passage 33 can achieve dual control of the water level. That is, when the floating member 50 fails, the liquid seal can still be achieved by using the connection function of the flow passage 33, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the water level and improve the control accuracy.

[0083] In some embodiments, the limiting member 40 includes a plurality of limiting ribs, and the limiting ribs are spaced apart from each other and surround to form the limiting space 60.

[0084] Specifically, the plurality of limiting ribs are arranged vertically on the bottom wall of the atomization cavity 13, and all the limiting ribs are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction and surround to form the limiting space 60. Thus, the floating member 50 can be smoothly placed in the limiting space 60 and float up and down with the water level in the limiting space 60. At the same time, the gaps between the limiting ribs can enable the water in the atomization cavity 13 to smoothly enter the limiting space 60, so that a communication state is formed between the limiting space 60 and the atomization cavity 13.

[0085] Of course, the limiting member 40 can also be arranged in other structures, such as a fence structure, which can realize the limiting function of the floating member 50 and enable the water in the atomization cavity 13 to smoothly enter the limiting space 60, and will not be elaborated here.

[0086] With the above structure, while the floating member 50 is smoothly limited in the limiting space 60, the limiting space 60 is communicated with the atomization cavity 13, so that the water levels in the limiting space 60 and the atomization cavity 13 are the same, facilitating the floating up and down of the floating member 50 under the buoyancy force to better monitor and control the water level.

[0087] In some embodiments, the floating member 50 is configured as a floating ball, and the humidifier 100 further includes a first sealing ring 70. The first sealing ring 70 is arranged on the side of the second section 322 facing away from the first section 321 and is configured to be able to seal and cooperate with the floating ball.

[0088] Specifically, the first sealing ring 70 is disposed on the inner wall of the second section 322 and is located at one end of the second section 322 away from the first section 321. When the second pipe is in the open position, the opening of the second section 322 away from the first section 321 is arranged downward. At this time, the water storage cavity 12 adds water into the atomization cavity 13 through the flow channel 33 and the second pipe, and the water level in the atomization cavity 13 gradually rises. The floating ball rises synchronously with the water level in the limiting space 60.

[0089] When the floating ball rises to enter the opening of the second section 322, the floating ball is sealingly clamped with the first sealing ring 70, the floating ball stops rising, and blocks the second section 322, thereby disconnecting the flow channel 33 and stopping the water addition.

[0090] Thus, through the cooperation between the floating ball and the first sealing ring 70, the water level in the atomization cavity 13 can be better controlled.

[0091] In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a second sealing ring 80, and the second sealing ring 80 is sealingly disposed between the inner wall of the mounting opening and the outer peripheral wall of the first pipe.

[0092] Specifically, the second sealing ring 80 is sealingly disposed between the inner wall of the mounting opening and the outer peripheral wall of the first pipe, so that the first pipe can seal the mounting opening smoothly, and the water in the water storage cavity 12 can only enter the atomization cavity 13 through the flow channel 33 inside the first pipe, reducing the probability of water leakage.

[0093] In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a third sealing ring 90, and the third sealing ring 90 is sealingly connected between the first pipe and the second pipe.

[0094] Specifically, the third sealing ring 90 is sealingly disposed at the connection between the first pipe and the second pipe, so that the first pipe and the second pipe can be sealingly butted, further reducing the probability of water leakage.

[0095] As Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, in some embodiments, the first component 31 is configured as a third pipe, one end of the third pipe faces the water storage cavity 12, and the other end faces the atomization cavity 13. The second component 32 is configured as a sealing cover, and the sealing cover is openably and closably disposed on the opening at one end of the third pipe facing the atomization cavity 13.

[0096] As another embodiment, the first component 31 is set as a third pipe, the third pipe is sealingly disposed in the mounting opening, one end of the third pipe is located in the water storage cavity 12, and the other end is located in the atomization cavity 13. The second component 32 is set as a sealing cover and is disposed on the opening at one end of the third pipe facing the atomization cavity 13.

[0097] As Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, when the sealing cover is opened, that is, in the open position, the flow passage 33 inside the third pipe is open, and water can be added to the atomizing chamber 13 through the water storage chamber 12. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the sealing cover is closed, that is, in the closed position, the flow channel 33 inside the third pipe is disconnected, the water storage chamber 12 and the atomization chamber 13 are separated from each other, and water addition is stopped.

[0098] In some embodiments, the third conduit includes a third section 311 and a fourth section 312 that are interconnected. The third section 311 is sealed within the mounting opening, and the fourth section 312 is located within the atomization chamber 13. The fourth section 312 and the third section 311 are axially intersecting, and the fourth section 312 is opened downwardly on a side facing away from the third section 311. A sealing cover is openably and closably provided to cover the opening of the fourth section 312 on a side facing away from the third section 311.

[0099] Specifically, the third pipe is configured as a curved pipe structure, namely, comprising a third section 311 and a fourth section 312 arranged to intersect each other. The third section 311 is sealed within the mounting opening, and the fourth section 312 is located within the atomization chamber 13. The fourth section 312 is bent downward, i.e., the opening of the fourth section 312 facing away from the third section 311 is downward.

[0100] The sealing cover is arranged at the opening of the fourth section 312 away from the third section 311 , and the flow channel 33 is opened or closed by opening or closing the sealing cover.

[0101] In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a stopper 40 and a floating member 50. The stopper 40 is disposed at the bottom of the atomizing chamber 13. The interior of the stopper 40 forms a stopper space 60 that communicates with the atomizing chamber 13. The floating member 50 is disposed within the stopper space 60, and the fourth section 312 is disposed with an opening on a side facing away from the third section 311 toward the stopper space 60.

[0102] Specifically, the limiting member 40 can limit the floating member 50 within the limiting space 60, so that the floating member 50 can only move up and down under the action of buoyancy within the limiting space 60. In addition, because the limiting space 60 is connected to the atomization chamber 13, water in the atomization chamber 13 can smoothly enter the limiting space 60, allowing the floating member 50 to move up and down in the limiting space 60 under the influence of buoyancy.

[0103] Further, when the sealing cover is opened, as the water in the water storage chamber 12 flows into the atomization chamber 13 through the flow passage 33, the water level in the atomization chamber 13 gradually rises, causing the floating member 50 to gradually rise with the water level in the limiting space 60. When at least a part of the floating member 50 enters the opening on the side of the fourth section 312 facing away from the third section 311, the floating member 50 can seal the opening on the side of the fourth section 312 facing away from the third section 311, thereby disconnecting the flow passage 33 and stopping the water supply to the atomization chamber 13.

[0104] Thus, the floating member 50 can better control the water level in the atomization chamber 13, and the connection function between the floating member 50 and the flow passage 33 can achieve dual control of the water level. That is, when the floating member 50 fails, liquid seal can still be achieved by using the connection function of the flow passage 33, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the water level and improve the control accuracy.

[0105] In some embodiments, the limiting member 40 includes a plurality of limiting ribs, and the limiting ribs are spaced from each other and surround to form a limiting space 60.

[0106] Specifically, the plurality of limiting ribs are vertically arranged on the bottom wall of the atomization chamber 13, and all the limiting ribs are circumferentially spaced and arranged around to enclose a limiting space 60. Thus, the floating member 50 can be smoothly placed in the limiting space 60 and float up and down with the water level in the limiting space 60. At the same time, the gaps between the limiting ribs can allow the water in the atomization chamber 13 to smoothly enter the limiting space 60, so that a communication state is formed between the limiting space 60 and the atomization chamber 13.

[0107] Of course, the limiting member 40 can also be configured into other structures, such as a fence structure, which can realize the limiting function of the floating member 50 and at the same time allow the water in the atomization chamber 13 to smoothly enter the limiting space 60, which will not be elaborated here.

[0108] With the above structure, while the floating member 50 is smoothly limited in the limiting space 60, the limiting space 60 is communicated with the atomization chamber 13, so that the water levels in the limiting space 60 and the atomization chamber 13 are the same, facilitating the floating of the floating member 50 under the action of buoyancy to better monitor and control the water level.

[0109] In some embodiments, the floating member 50 is configured as a floating ball, and the sealing cover includes a cover body 323 and a sealing portion 324 connected to each other. The cover body 323 is openably and closably disposed on the opening on the side of the fourth section 312 facing away from the third section 311, and the sealing portion 324 is located on the side of the fourth section 312 facing away from the third section 311 and is configured to be able to seal and cooperate with the floating ball.

[0110] Specifically, the sealing part 324 is arranged on the inner wall of the fourth section 312 and is located at one end of the fourth section 312 away from the third section 311. When the sealing cover is opened, the water storage cavity 12 adds water into the atomization cavity 13 through the flow-through channel 33, and the water level in the atomization cavity 13 gradually rises. The floating ball synchronously rises with the water level in the limiting space 60.

[0111] When the floating ball rises to enter the opening of the fourth section 312, the floating ball is hermetically clamped with the sealing part 324, the floating ball stops rising, and blocks the third pipe, so that the flow-through channel 33 is disconnected and the water addition stops.

[0112] Thus, through the cooperation between the floating ball and the sealing part 324, the water level in the atomization cavity 13 can be better controlled.

[0113] In some embodiments, the humidifier 100 further includes a second sealing ring 80, and the second sealing ring 80 is hermetically arranged between the inner wall of the installation opening and the outer peripheral wall of the third pipe.

[0114] Specifically, the second sealing ring 80 is hermetically arranged between the inner wall of the installation opening and the outer peripheral wall of the third pipe, so that the third pipe can seal the installation opening smoothly, and the water in the water storage cavity 12 can only enter the atomization cavity 13 through the flow-through channel 33 inside the third pipe, reducing the probability of water leakage.

[0115] Please refer to Figure 11 simultaneously. In some embodiments, a water filling port 14 communicating with the water storage cavity 12 is opened on the box body 10, and the humidifier 100 further includes a water filling cover 15. The water filling cover 15 is rotatably arranged on the box body 10 and is used to open or close the water filling port 14.

[0116] Specifically, the water filling port 14 is opened at the top of the box body 10. The position of the water filling port 14 corresponds to that of the water storage cavity 12 and is in communication with the water storage cavity 12. Through the water filling port 14, water can be added into the water storage cavity 12.

[0117] The water filling cover 15 is rotatably arranged on the box body 10 to open or close the water filling port 14 by rotation, ensuring the sealing performance after water filling.

[0118] In some embodiments, an air outlet 16 communicating with the atomization cavity 13 is further opened on the box body 10, and the humidifier 100 further includes an air outlet cover 17 covering the air outlet 16.

[0119] Specifically, the air outlet 16 is opened at the top of the box body 10. The position of the air outlet 16 corresponds to that of the atomization cavity 13 and is in communication with the atomization cavity 13. The atomizer atomizes the liquid in the atomization cavity 13 and can discharge it from the air outlet 16 to achieve the humidifying effect.

[0120] Further, the atomizer is disposed at the bottom of the atomization chamber 13, and an air duct and a fog collection channel may also be provided in the atomization chamber 13. The air duct is connected to the fan in the base of the humidifier 100 and is configured to receive the air flow from the fan and blow the air flow into the fog collection channel. One end of the fog collection channel is disposed towards the atomizer, and the other end is communicated with the fog outlet 16, so as to discharge the atomized water vapor from the fog outlet 16.

[0121] According to one or more embodiments, when the present application is specifically used, first, water is added to the water storage chamber 12 through the water filling port 14. After the water addition is completed, the water filling cover 15 is rotated to seal and cover the water filling port 14. The second pipe is controlled to rotate to the open position, so that the water storage chamber 12 and the atomization chamber 13 are communicated through the flow-through channel 33 and the second pipe, and water flows from the water storage chamber 12 into the atomization chamber 13.

[0122] As the water level in the atomization chamber 13 gradually rises, the floating ball gradually floats up in the limiting space 60. When the floating ball moves up to the opening of the second pipe, the floating ball is in sealing cooperation with the first sealing ring 70 or the sealing portion 324 to block the second pipe, so that the flow-through channel 33 is disconnected, and at this time, the water addition to the atomization chamber 13 is stopped.

[0123] Further, when the floating ball fails, as the water level in the atomization chamber 13 gradually rises to be equal to the water level in the water storage chamber 12, the flow-through channel 33 is communicated between the water storage chamber 12 and the atomization chamber 13, which can achieve the effect of liquid seal and prevent the water level in the atomization chamber 13 from continuously rising.

[0124] The atomizer is turned on to atomize the water in the atomization chamber 13. The air flow blown out in the air duct blows the water vapor into the fog collection channel. The fog outlet cover 17 is opened, and the water vapor is discharged from the fog outlet 16 to achieve the humidification effect.

For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.

It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
