Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of humidifiers, and in particular relates to a foldable humidifier. Background Art

[0002] A common evaporative humidifier typically consists of a water tank, a damp curtain assembly, and a main unit. The water tank is positioned at the bottom, the main unit at the top, and the filter assembly is nestled in the center, forming a single unit. Its key performance indicator is humidification capacity, which describes how quickly the humidifier moistens the air. A higher humidification capacity means the product consumes water more quickly, so a high humidification capacity typically requires a larger water tank. As a water storage structure, the size of the water tank is directly correlated to its storage capacity. Generally, a larger water tank and a larger water capacity result in a larger overall unit, making transportation and storage inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems in the prior art, an object of the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a foldable humidifier.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in the embodiment of the utility model is a foldable humidifier, comprising a water tank, a filter assembly and a main unit assembly placed in sequence above the water tank. The filter assembly and main unit assembly can be partially or completely placed in the water tank after being inverted. The foldable humidifier also includes a water pump assembly for pumping water from the water tank to supply water to the filter assembly. The filter assembly and main unit assembly can be partially or completely placed in the water tank after being inverted, thereby utilizing the water storage space of the water tank for storage, thereby achieving foldable storage.

[0005] Furthermore, the water pump assembly is detachably mounted in the water tank, and a placement seat for the water pump assembly is provided in the water tank. After the water pump assembly is disassembled, there is more space in the water tank, which facilitates the partial / complete placement of the filter assembly and the main unit assembly in the water tank after being reversed.

The water supply cover is provided with multiple water holes for spraying water on the filter assembly, and the water supply cover receives water from the water pump assembly. When the fan is working, air enters from the air inlet, passes through the wet filter assembly, and flushes water vapor out of the air outlet, achieving an air humidification effect. The filter assembly is not soaked in the water tank, which reduces the mold and odor of the filter element.

[0007] Furthermore, a lower coupler is installed at the water outlet of the water pump assembly, a water supply channel is constructed on the housing, and the water supply channel is connected to the lower water cover plate. An upper coupler is installed at the bottom of the housing to cooperate with the lower coupler, and the upper coupler is connected to the water supply channel.

[0009] Furthermore, the main unit assembly is constructed in a table shape with a large diameter at the lower end and a small diameter at the upper end, so that the main unit assembly can be placed upside down from the top of the water tank.

[0010] Furthermore, the filter assembly is constructed in a cylindrical shape that matches the lower end of the inner cavity of the shell, making it easy to cover the filter assembly on the lower end of the inner cavity of the shell.

[0011] Furthermore, a fixing structure for fixing the water pump assembly is constructed at the bottom of the filter assembly. The fixing structure is used to fix the water pump assembly when the filter assembly and the main unit assembly are partially or completely placed in the water tank after being inverted, so that the water pump assembly makes room in the water tank and is placed stably.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixing structure includes a first card slot and a second card slot, wherein the first card slot and the second card slot are respectively constructed at the bottom of the opposite side walls of the filter assembly, and the first card slot and the second card slot respectively cooperate with one end of the water pump assembly.

[0013] Furthermore, the filter assembly includes a cylindrical support and a flexible filter, wherein the flexible filter is sleeved on the cylindrical support. The cylindrical support and the flexible filter are detachable and separable, and the flexible filter is made of a flexible and foldable material, which can be repeatedly washed and folded for storage.

[0014] Furthermore, the top of the housing is configured with a recessed portion, and the bottom of the inner cavity of the water tank is configured with a protrusion that cooperates with the recessed portion. When the housing is inverted and inserted into the inner cavity of the water tank, the protrusion is inserted into the recessed portion. When the housing is inverted in the water tank, the protrusion is inserted into the recessed portion to serve as a limit.

[0015] Compared to existing technologies, the foldable humidifier proposed in this technical solution helps solve the inconvenient storage and transportation issues of evaporative humidifiers. The detachable design of the water pump and filter components facilitates cleaning. Furthermore, the main unit can be placed upside down in the water tank, utilizing the water storage space within the tank for storage, enabling foldable storage. This reduces the size of the unit, making it easier to transport and store.
