Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of humidifiers, in particular to a mist outlet component and a humidifier. Background Art
[0002] Steam humidifiers, also known as warm mist humidifiers or evaporators, generate steam through heating, which kills microorganisms and other impurities in the water. The mist from a steam humidifier is warm enough to prevent aggravation of colds, allergies, and other conditions, making it healthier than cold mist or other types of humidifiers. However, in related technologies, the mist pressure and flow rate within the mist outlet pipe of steam humidifiers are low, resulting in lower humidification efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model provides a mist outlet component to increase the flow rate of water mist in the mist outlet component.
[0004] The mist outlet assembly of the present invention includes a mist outlet pipe and a separator, the mist outlet pipe is provided with a water inlet and a mist outlet; the separator is arranged in the mist outlet pipe and connected to the mist outlet pipe to separate the mist outlet pipe into a pressure chamber and a mist outlet chamber, the pressure chamber is communicated with the water inlet, the mist outlet chamber is communicated with the mist outlet, and the separator is provided with a plurality of through holes communicating with the pressure chamber and the mist outlet chamber.
[0005] The mist outlet assembly of the present invention is provided with a partition inside the mist outlet pipe, which is used to divide the mist outlet pipe into a pressure chamber and a mist outlet chamber. The pressure chamber is connected to the water inlet, and the mist outlet chamber is connected to the mist outlet. When the mist outlet assembly is in operation, water can enter the pressure chamber through the water inlet and be heated to steam by the heating element in the pressure chamber. The steam-generated water mist first gathers in the pressure chamber. When the water mist pressure in the pressure chamber is high, the water mist flows into the mist outlet chamber through the through hole of the partition and finally flows out through the mist outlet. As a result, the pressure of the water mist in the mist outlet pipe is increased, thereby increasing the flow rate of the water mist in the mist outlet assembly.
[0006] Optionally, the through hole has a diameter of 0.8 mm to 3 mm. By setting the through hole diameter to 0.8 mm to 3 mm, while the through hole has a smaller flow area, the overall flow area of the mist outlet duct where the partition is provided can be larger, thereby more effectively increasing the flow rate of the water mist flowing out of the mist outlet assembly.
[0007] Optionally, the separator has a raised portion facing the mist outlet chamber, and the through-hole is provided on the raised portion. Providing the raised portion on the separator increases the surface area of the separator, thereby allowing for a greater number of through-holes to be provided on the separator. This creates a larger flow area between the pressure chamber and the mist outlet chamber, which helps increase the flow rate of the mist from the mist outlet assembly.
[0008] Optionally, the surface of the raised portion is a curved surface. By setting the surface of the raised portion as a curved surface, the flow resistance of the raised portion to the water mist can be reduced, which is conducive to increasing the pressure of the water mist in the mist outlet pipe and further increasing the flow rate of the water mist of the mist outlet assembly.
[0009] Optionally, the through holes form a plurality of hole groups, wherein the plurality of through holes in the same hole group are spaced apart along the circumference of the mist outlet pipe, and the plurality of hole groups are spaced apart along the radial direction of the mist outlet pipe. By designing the through holes in this manner, the through holes are arranged in an orderly manner, thereby facilitating the design and processing of the through holes and helping to reduce the cost of the mist outlet assembly.
[0010] Optionally, in two adjacent hole groups, the number of through holes in the outer hole group is greater than the number of through holes in the inner hole group. By designing the through holes in two adjacent hole groups in this manner, more through holes can be provided on the separator while ensuring the structural strength of the separator. This creates a larger flow area between the pressure chamber and the mist outlet chamber, which helps increase the flow rate of the water mist from the mist outlet assembly.
[0011] Optionally, the separator is detachably connected to the mist outlet pipe. By detachably connecting the separator to the mist outlet pipe, maintenance and replacement of the separator are facilitated.
[0012] Optionally, the separator is clamped to the mist outlet pipe. By clamping the separator to the mist outlet pipe, it is convenient to connect and disassemble the separator to the mist outlet pipe, and it is further convenient to maintain and replace the separator.
[0013] Optionally, the separator includes a barrel and a plate, the mist outlet pipe is sleeved on the outside of the barrel and connected to the barrel, the plate is arranged on a side of the barrel close to the mist outlet chamber, and the through hole is provided on the plate. By sleeved on the outside of the barrel and connected to the barrel, the connection area between the mist outlet pipe and the barrel can be increased, thereby improving the connection reliability of the mist outlet pipe and the separator, and improving the reliability of the mist outlet assembly.
[0014] The utility model also provides a humidifier.
[0015] The humidifier of the present invention comprises a main body and a mist outlet assembly, wherein the mist outlet assembly is any one of the mist outlet assemblies described above, and the mist outlet assembly is connected to the main body.
[0016] The humidifier of the utility model can improve the humidification efficiency of the humidifier by increasing the flow rate of the water mist in the mist outlet component. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the mist outlet assembly 10 of the present invention embodiment includes a mist outlet pipe 1 and a partition 2. The partition 2 is disposed within and connected to the mist outlet pipe 1 to separate the mist outlet pipe 1 into a pressure chamber 13 and a mist outlet chamber 14. The mist outlet pipe 1 is provided with a water inlet 11 and a mist outlet 12. The pressure chamber 13 is connected to the water inlet 11, and the mist outlet chamber 14 is connected to the mist outlet 12. The partition 2 is provided with a plurality of through holes 222 that connect the pressure chamber 13 and the mist outlet chamber 14.
[0033] like Figure 4As shown, the mist outlet assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a partition 2 inside the mist outlet pipe 1, and the partition 2 is used to divide the mist outlet pipe 1 into a pressure chamber 13 and a mist outlet chamber 14. The pressure chamber 13 is connected to the water inlet 11, and the mist outlet chamber 14 is connected to the mist outlet 12. When the mist outlet assembly 10 is in operation, water can enter the pressure chamber 13 through the water inlet 11 and be heated to steam by the heating element 201 in the pressure chamber 13. The water mist formed by the steam first gathers in the pressure chamber 13. When the water mist pressure in the pressure chamber 13 is relatively high, the water mist flows into the mist outlet chamber 14 through the through hole 222 of the partition 2, and finally flows out through the mist outlet 12. As a result, the pressure of the water mist in the mist outlet pipe 1 is increased, and the flow rate of the water mist in the mist outlet assembly 10 is increased.
[0034] It should be noted that by arranging a partition 2 in the mist outlet pipe 1 and providing a plurality of through holes 222 on the partition 2, the flow area of the mist outlet pipe 1 where the partition 2 is provided is smaller than when no partition 2 is provided in the mist outlet pipe 1, thereby increasing the water mist pressure in the pressure chamber 13.
[0035] Optionally, the diameter of the through hole 222 is 0.8 mm to 3 mm.
[0036] It can be understood that the smaller the aperture of the through hole 222, the smaller the flow area of the through hole 222, and the smaller the overall flow area of the mist outlet pipe 1 where the partition 2 is provided, which may reduce the flow rate of the water mist flowing out of the mist outlet component 10; the larger the aperture of the through hole 222, the larger the flow area of the through hole 222, and the smaller the pressure of the water mist in the pressure chamber 13, which may still reduce the flow rate of the water mist flowing out of the mist outlet component 10.
[0037] By setting the aperture of the through hole 222 to 0.8 mm to 3 mm, the flow area of the through hole 222 is small while the overall flow area of the mist outlet pipe 1 where the partition 2 is provided can be ensured to be large, thereby more effectively increasing the flow rate of the water mist flowing out of the mist outlet assembly 10.
[0038] In order to make the technical solution of the present invention easier to understand, the following takes the example of the length direction of the mist outlet pipe 1 being consistent with the up-down direction to further describe the technical solution of the present invention. Figures 1 to 5 shown.
[0039] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the water inlet 11 is arranged below the mist outlet 12, and the pressure chamber 13 is arranged below the mist outlet chamber 14. The water mist in the pressure chamber 13 flows into the mist outlet chamber 14 from bottom to top, and the water mist in the mist outlet chamber 14 flows out through the mist outlet 12 from bottom to top.
[0040] Alternatively, as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the partition 2 includes a cylinder 21 and a plate 22 , the mist outlet pipe 1 is sleeved on the outside of the cylinder 21 and connected to the cylinder 21 , the plate 22 is arranged on the side of the cylinder 21 close to the mist outlet chamber 14 , and the through hole 222 is arranged on the plate 22 .
[0041] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cylinder 21 extends in the up-down direction, the cylinder 21 is arranged on the lower side of the plate 22 , and the mist outlet pipe 1 is sleeved on the outer side of the cylinder 21 .
[0042] By sleevedly arranging the mist outlet pipe 1 on the outside of the cylinder 21 and connecting it to the cylinder 21 , the connection area between the mist outlet pipe 1 and the cylinder 21 can be increased, thereby improving the connection reliability between the mist outlet pipe 1 and the partition 2 and improving the reliability of the mist outlet assembly 10 .
[0043] Optionally, the cylinder 21 and the plate 22 are integrally formed.
[0044] For example, the cylinder 21 and the plate 22 are integrally injection molded.
[0045] Optionally, the partition 2 is detachably connected to the mist outlet pipe 1 .
[0046] By detachably connecting the partition 2 to the mist outlet pipe 1 , maintenance and replacement of the partition 2 are facilitated.
[0047] Optionally, the partition 2 is snap-connected with the mist outlet pipe 1 .
[0048] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the barrel 21 is provided with a buckle 23 , and the interior of the mist outlet pipe 1 is provided with a clamping groove 15 , and the buckle 23 is clamped with the clamping groove 15 .
[0049] By snapping the partition 2 to the mist outlet pipe 1 , it is convenient to connect and disassemble the partition 2 to the mist outlet pipe 1 , and it is further convenient to maintain and replace the partition 2 .
[0050] Optionally, the partition 2 has a protrusion 221 disposed toward the mist outlet chamber 14 , and the through hole 222 is disposed on the protrusion 221 .
[0051] By providing the protrusion 221 on the separator 2, the surface area of the separator 2 can be increased, thereby allowing more through holes 222 to be provided on the separator 2. This provides a larger flow area between the pressure chamber 13 and the mist outlet chamber 14, which is beneficial for increasing the flow rate of the water mist of the mist outlet assembly 10.
[0052] Alternatively, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the surface of the protrusion 221 is a curved surface.
[0053] For example, the surface of the protrusion 221 is an ellipsoidal surface or a spherical surface.
[0054] By setting the surface of the raised portion 221 as a curved surface, the flow resistance of the raised portion 221 to the water mist can be reduced, which is beneficial to increasing the pressure of the water mist in the mist outlet pipe 1 and further increasing the flow rate of the water mist of the mist outlet assembly 10.
[0055] Alternatively, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the through holes 222 form a plurality of hole groups, the plurality of through holes 222 in the same hole group are spaced apart along the circumference of the mist outlet pipe 1, and the plurality of hole groups are spaced apart along the radial direction of the mist outlet pipe 1. In other words, the separator 2 is provided with a plurality of circles of through holes 222.
[0056] By designing the through holes 222 as described above, the layout of the through holes 222 is orderly, thereby facilitating the design and processing of the through holes 222 and helping to reduce the cost of the mist outlet assembly 10 .
[0057] Alternatively, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in two adjacent hole groups, the number of through holes 222 in the hole group located on the outer side is greater than the number of through holes 222 in the hole group located on the inner side.
[0058] It can be understood that, in the radial direction of the mist outlet duct 1 , the circumferential dimension of the partition 2 gradually increases from the inside to the outside, and the more through holes 222 can be provided on the partition 2 .
[0059] By designing the through holes of two adjacent hole groups as described above, more through holes 222 can be provided on the separator 2 while ensuring the structural strength of the separator 2. This creates a larger flow area between the pressure chamber 13 and the mist outlet chamber 14, which helps increase the flow rate of the mist from the mist outlet assembly 10.
[0060] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the humidifier 100 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a main body 20 and a mist outlet assembly 10 . The mist outlet assembly 10 is the mist outlet assembly 10 of any of the above embodiments, and the mist outlet assembly 10 is connected to the main body 20 .
[0061] The humidifier 100 of the embodiment of the present invention can improve the humidification efficiency of the humidifier 100 by increasing the flow rate of the water mist in the mist outlet assembly 10 .
[0062] Alternatively, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mist outlet assembly 10 further includes a seal 4 , which is sleeved on the mist outlet pipe 1 , and the mist outlet pipe 1 and the main body 20 are sealed by the seal 4 .
[0063] Alternatively, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the mist outlet assembly 10 further includes a cavity cover 3 and a control member 5. The control member 5 is disposed on the cavity cover 3. The cavity cover 3 is disposed corresponding to the water inlet 11 and is connected to the mist outlet pipe 1. The main body 20 includes a water tank, and the water tank and the water inlet 11 are connected or disconnected by the control member 5.
[0064] The cavity cover 3 and the mist outlet pipe 1 can be clamped together.
[0065] When the humidifier 100 is working, the control component 5 connects the water tank to the water inlet 11, so that the water in the water tank can enter the pressure chamber 13 through the water inlet 11 and contact the heating element 201 in the pressure chamber 13; the water in the pressure chamber 13 is heated to steam by the heating element 201, and the water mist formed by the steam first gathers in the pressure chamber 13. When the water mist pressure in the pressure chamber 13 is relatively high, the water mist flows into the mist outlet chamber 14 through the through hole 222 of the partition 2, and finally flows out to the outside environment through the mist outlet 12. The setting of the partition 2 can quickly release the steam generated after heating to the outside environment, avoiding the loss of steam in a larger volume, thereby improving the humidification efficiency and also improving the continuity of the gas outlet of the humidifier 100.
[0066] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are illustrative and cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention. Changes, modifications, substitutions and variations of the above embodiments made by ordinary technicians in this field are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
