Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of humidifier design, and in particular to a humidifier water tank. Background Art

[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance used to increase indoor air humidity. It converts water into vapor, increasing the moisture content in the air and making it more humid. Humidifiers are particularly useful in dry environments, relieving problems like dry skin and sore throats. They also help improve indoor air quality and reduce static electricity.

[0003] The humidifier water tank is the part of the humidifier that stores water and provides the necessary water source. Currently, most existing humidifiers are fixed inside the humidifier and cannot be disassembled, making it difficult to add water. Although there are humidifiers with detachable water tanks in the prior art, these tanks are still located inside the humidifier, making them difficult to disassemble and assemble, and the disassembly process is cumbersome, affecting the efficiency of water addition. In addition, most existing water tanks lack handles or have fixed handles, while the water outlet is located at the bottom. This requires the tank to be inverted when adding water, making it difficult to place it stably. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problems raised in the above background technology that the humidifier water tank is difficult to disassemble and cannot be placed stably when adding water to the water tank, the present application provides a humidifier water tank.

[0005] The humidifier water tank provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A humidifier water tank is detachably mounted on one side of the humidifier, and comprises:

[0007] The box body has a concave placement groove at one end;

[0008] The handle is rotatably connected to the placement groove of the box body, and has a protrusion protruding outward on its surface. When not affected by external force, the end of the handle always rotates toward the first end of the placement groove. In this state, the protrusion is located in the direction close to the box body; when the handle is affected by external force and the end rotates toward the second end of the placement groove, the protrusion is located in the direction away from the box body and has a tendency to move in the direction away from the box body.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the water tank is detachably installed on one side of the humidifier to replace the traditional structure in which the water tank is located inside the humidifier, so that the water tank can be disassembled more quickly, the operation is convenient and time is saved; on the other hand, the placement groove and handle structure are provided, so that the handle can be hidden in the placement groove, and it can be used by rotating the handle when in use; on the other hand, the provided protrusion is used to be on the side away from the box body when the end of the handle is rotated to the second end of the placement groove, so that the protrusion has a tendency to move outward, and then can cooperate with the limiting groove inside the humidifier to achieve a locking effect, which has the advantage of a firm connection with the humidifier. When the water tank needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to press the handle to disengage the protrusion from the limiting groove of the humidifier to achieve unlocking, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the water tank.

[0010] Optionally, the handle has a first side surface and a second side surface that form an angle with each other, and the protrusion is arranged on the surface of the second side surface.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, after the first side surface reaches the extreme position, the second side surface has a structural state of tilting upward.

[0012] Optionally, the placement groove of the box body is provided with a limiting surface, and when the handle is not subjected to external force, the first side surface of the handle can contact the limiting surface, thereby preventing the handle from rotating without restriction.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation position of the handle in a natural state is mainly limited by the limiting surface, thereby preventing the handle from rotating without restriction and controlling the handle to rotate to a specified position.

[0014] Optionally, the box body is provided with an arc surface near the first end of the placement slot; when the end of the handle is rotated toward the extreme position of the first end of the placement slot without being acted upon by external force, the end of the handle and the end surface of the box body where the placement slot is located are in the same plane.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, after the water tank is removed from the humidifier and inverted to add water, the position where the box body contacts the ground can be in a stable state, that is, the end surface of the box body and the end of the handle contact the ground together to achieve stable support.

[0016] Optionally, the handle is rotatably connected to the box body via a pin, and a torsion spring is installed on the pin, one end of the torsion spring abuts against the box body and the other end abuts against the handle, for driving the end of the handle to rotate toward the first end of the placement slot.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the handle is controlled to rotate toward the first end of the placement slot by the torsion spring, which has the characteristic of simple structure.

[0018] Optionally, the water tank further includes:

[0019] A spring is installed on the box body and is located at the second end of the placement slot;

[0020] A reset block is slidably connected to the box body, and its lower end abuts against the spring;

[0021] Among them, when the end of the handle rotates to the second end of the placement slot, the reset block can contact the handle under the action of the spring, and is configured to cooperate with the torsion spring to make the end of the handle rotate toward the first end of the placement slot, thereby locking the water tank when the water tank is installed on the humidifier.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution and further cooperating with the torsion spring to realize the upward movement of the protrusion, a snap-on connection with the humidifier is achieved, the stability of the connection is improved, and the installation is firm without generating noise due to shaking.

[0023] Optionally, the water tank further includes:

[0024] The valve is arranged on the end surface of the box body opposite to the handle position.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the water in the water tank can flow into the interior of the humidifier through the valve.

[0026] Optionally, the box body includes a panel, an inner liner and an outer shell, the inner liner is located between the panel and the outer shell, the placement groove is located in the middle concave area of the upper end formed after the panel and the outer shell are connected, and the handle can be rotatably installed in the through hole formed after the panel and the outer shell are connected.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the inner liner can be protected, and on the other hand, the installation and positioning of the handle can be facilitated.

[0028] Optionally, the panel is one of the side panels of the humidifier, and the lower end of the panel has a card plate extending downward.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the water tank can be set at a side position of the humidifier instead of being set inside the humidifier, which has the characteristic of easy disassembly.

[0030] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0031] The utility model is provided with a hidden handle that rotates in a specified direction. On the one hand, the water tank can be transported and is easy to carry. On the other hand, the characteristic of the handle rotating in the specified direction can be used to achieve the cooperation between the protrusion on it and the limiting groove of the humidifier, thereby achieving the effect of stable connection with the humidifier. When disassembling, the protrusion can be separated from the limiting groove by pressing the handle, so that the handle acts as a lock between the water tank and the humidifier, which has the characteristic of convenient disassembly and assembly.

[0032] The water tank of the utility model is combined with one of the side panels of the humidifier, so that the water tank can be placed on a side wall of the humidifier, further improving the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the water tank;

[0033] After the water tank of the utility model is disassembled, the handle can restore to a free state under the action of the torsion spring. When the water tank is inverted, the handle can cooperate with the end face of the water tank to contact the ground, thereby playing a role in stably supporting the water tank, avoiding the problem of the water tank being unable to remain stable during the water filling process and causing inconvenience in water filling. The utility model has the effects of simple structure and stable support, and realizes the multifunctional use of the handle. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0044] The present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] The present application discloses a humidifier water tank, which is detachably mounted on one side of the humidifier. The water tank includes:

[0046] The box body 1 has a concave placement groove 105 at one end. In this example, after the water tank is installed on the humidifier, the placement groove 105 is located at the upper end of the box body 1.

[0047] The handle 2 is rotatably connected to the placement slot 105 of the housing 1 and has an outwardly protruding protrusion 204 on its surface. In this example, there are two protrusions 204, one on each side of the handle 2. They are configured to be snapped onto the humidifier, thereby connecting the entire water tank to the humidifier. When not subject to external force, the end of the handle 2 always rotates toward the first end 1051 of the placement slot 105. In this state, the protrusion 204 is located in a direction close to the housing 1. When the handle 2 is subjected to external force and the end rotates toward the second end 1052 of the placement slot 105, the protrusion 204 is located away from the housing 1 and has a tendency to move away from the housing 1.

[0048] Among them, when the handle 2 is rotated toward the second end 1052 of the placement slot 105 by an external force, the protrusion 204 on the handle 2 can be stuck in the limiting groove 8 above the inside of the humidifier. Since the protrusion 204 always has an upward trend, the protrusion 204 can be firmly stuck in the limiting groove 8. When disassembling, the user's hand can be inserted into the gap 7 formed between the handle 2 and the humidifier, and press the handle 2 to make the protrusion 204 detach from the limiting groove 8, thereby unlocking and facilitating the disassembly of the water tank.

[0049] Specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, the handle 2 has a first side surface 202 and a second side surface 203 that are at an angle of 145° to each other, and the protrusion 204 is arranged on the surface of the second side surface 203. In this example, the handle 2 has a V-shaped structure as a whole, which is mainly used to ensure that its end can be flush with the surface of the box body 1 in a free state, that is, the end b of the handle 2 is flush with the end surface a of the box body 1.

[0050] Specifically, a limiting surface 104 is provided in the placement groove 105 of the box body 1. When the handle 2 is not subjected to external force, the first side surface 202 of the handle 2 can contact the limiting surface 104, thereby preventing the handle 2 from rotating without restriction. More specifically, the box body 1 is provided with an arc surface 107 in the direction close to the first end 1051 of the placement groove 105; when the end of the handle 2 is rotated to the extreme position of the first end 1051 of the placement groove 105 without being subjected to external force, the end of the handle 2 and the end surface of the box body 1 where the placement groove 105 is located are in the same plane, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the housing 1 has a flat surface a on top. The handle 2 is in a free state under the action of the torsion spring 5 (i.e., the end of the handle 2 is rotated toward the first end 1051 of the placement slot 105). The end b of the handle 2 further protrudes outward from the curved surface 107. This allows the flat surface a and the end b of the handle 2 to contact the ground during water addition, providing a stable support and preventing the water tank from tilting during water addition. The curved surface 107 is provided on the housing 1 near the first end 1051 of the placement slot 105 to prevent interference during installation of the water tank on the humidifier.

[0051] Specifically, the handle 2 is rotatably connected to the box body 1 through a pin 201, and a torsion spring 5 is installed on the pin 201. One end of the torsion spring 5 abuts against the box body 1 and the other end abuts against the handle 2, which is used to drive the end of the handle 2 to rotate toward the first end 1051 of the placement slot 105.

[0052] Specifically, the water tank further includes:

[0053] The spring 4 is mounted on the box body 1 and is located at the second end 1052 of the placement groove 105. The box body 1 has a mounting groove 106 at the second end 1052 of the placement groove 105. The mounting groove 106 has a cylindrical body inside, and the spring 4 is sleeved on the cylindrical body.

[0054] The reset block 3 is slidably connected to the box body 1, and the lower end thereof abuts against the spring 4. The reset block 3 is a square hollow structure, which slides with the mounting groove 106, and the cylinder can be placed in the hollow cavity to avoid interference;

[0055] Among them, when the end of the handle 2 rotates to the direction of the second end 1052 of the placement slot 105, the reset block 3 can contact the handle 2 under the action of the spring 4, and is configured to cooperate with the torsion spring 5 to make the end of the handle 2 rotate toward the first end 1051 of the placement slot 105, so as to prevent the torsion spring 5 from failing and causing the protrusion 204 on the handle 2 to be unable to achieve a locking effect with the humidifier.

[0056] Specifically, the water tank further includes:

[0057] The valve 6 is provided on the end face of the box body 1 opposite to the handle 2. The valve 6 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the box body 1. Its structure and principle belong to conventional designs in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0058] Specifically, the box body 1 includes a panel 101, an inner liner 102 and an outer shell 103. The inner liner 102 is located between the panel 101 and the outer shell 103. The placement groove 105 is located in the middle concave area of the upper end formed after the panel 101 and the outer shell 103 are connected. The handle 2 can be rotatably installed in the through hole formed after the panel 101 and the outer shell 103 are connected, and can be used to realize the installation of the handle 2. More specifically, the panel 101 is one of the side panels of the humidifier, and the lower end of the panel 101 has a downward extending card plate 1011. The design of the card plate 1011 is to facilitate the installation of the water tank on the humidifier. The card plate 1011 can be first clamped on the humidifier, and then the upper end of the water tank enters the humidifier. After the entire water tank is installed, its panel 101 is located at the outermost position.

[0059] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
