Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of humidifiers, in particular to a humidifier with a filtering device. Background Art

[0002] In modern homes and offices, humidifiers are a common air conditioning device, widely used to increase indoor air humidity to improve living and working comfort, especially during dry seasons or in air-conditioned rooms. However, long-term use of humidifiers, especially when using tap water as a water source, faces a common and troublesome problem: scale formation.

[0003] Tap water typically contains a certain amount of minerals, most notably calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) ions. These ions accumulate and crystallize on various internal humidifier components, such as the atomizer, water tank walls, and heating mechanism, as water molecules are atomized into tiny droplets and sprayed out during humidification, eventually forming hard scale.

[0004] Scale accumulation not only seriously affects the humidifier's spray efficiency and performance, but can also lead to nozzle blockage, poor water flow, and even machine failure. If spraying stops or the spray volume is significantly reduced, it seriously reduces the humidifier's service life and user experience. Furthermore, when the sprayed water mist containing calcium and magnesium ions dries in the air, it forms tiny white powder particles. These particles can adhere to indoor furniture and electrical surfaces, making cleaning more difficult. For people with allergies, it can also cause respiratory discomfort and other problems. Utility Model Content

The water inlet and the air outlet are respectively connected to the connecting pipe by plugging. The baffle is arranged inside the shell. A through hole is provided on the baffle. The through hole connects the water inlet and the water outlet. The scale inhibitor is installed on the baffle. The water in the water storage chamber flows through the scale inhibitor in the filtering device and then flows into the atomizing chamber.

[0007] According to the humidifier with a filtering device of the present application, a filtering device with a scale inhibitor is provided on the connecting pipe between the water storage chamber and the atomizing chamber. The scale inhibitor acts on the water flowing from the water storage chamber into the atomizing chamber, thereby achieving the effect of delaying the generation of scale in the atomizing chamber. The scale inhibitor is provided in the connecting pipe, which avoids the negative effects such as drug residue and decreased scale inhibition function caused by the scale inhibitor being immersed in the water storage chamber or the atomizing chamber for a long time, so that the scale inhibitor can perform scale inhibition work for a long time. The filtering device separates the scale inhibitor from the water storage chamber or the atomizing chamber through the shell, and prevents the scale inhibitor from leaking from the water inlet or outlet through the baffle. The through holes on the baffle can ensure the passage of water.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a water pump, which is installed in the water storage chamber and pumps water in the water storage chamber into the filtering device through the water pump.

[0009] Furthermore, the water storage chamber is arranged above the atomizing chamber, so that the water in the water storage chamber flows into the filter device under the action of gravity.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting pipe includes a first pipe body and a second pipe body. One end of the first pipe body is connected to the water pump and the other end is connected to the water inlet of the filter device. One end of the second pipe body is connected to the water outlet of the filter device and the other end extends into the atomization chamber. Dividing the connecting pipe into two parts can be coordinated with the water tank and the main unit, and can also facilitate the installation of the filter device in the connecting pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the first tube body is made of silicone, which is a soft tube body.

[0013] Furthermore, the main unit further comprises an atomizing device, which is installed at the bottom of the atomizing chamber. The atomizing device can be an atomizer or a heating device, which performs ultrasonic atomization through the atomizer or heating atomization through the heating device.

[0014] Furthermore, the housing includes an upper cover, a lower cover, and a cylinder, the water outlet is provided on the upper cover, the water inlet is provided on the lower cover, the upper and lower covers are sealed on the cylinder from the upper and lower ends, and the baffle is fixed to the cylinder.

[0025] The filtering device 3 of the present application can be used in a structure for pumping water from bottom to top, and can also be used in a solution for natural water flow from top to bottom.

[0026] The accompanying drawings of this application provide an embodiment of pumping water by a water pump 7, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 4The figure also includes a water tank 5, a host 6 and a water pump 7.
