[0040] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the middle section of the mist outlet pipe 3 between the first end 31 and the second end 33 thereof is the bellows section 32 .

[0041] Specifically, the first end 31, the bellows section 32, and the second end 33 are sequentially connected and integrally formed. The first end 31 of the mist outlet pipe 3 is used to connect to the water tank 1, and the second end 33 of the mist outlet pipe 3 is used to connect to the mist outlet cover 2. The mist outlet pipe 3 of this structure can also be said to be in the form of a bellows section 32 as a whole. The mist outlet pipe 3 has a simple structure, is easy to operate, has strong flexibility, and has good sealing performance. Moreover, the bellows section 32 is compressible, which can further reduce the space occupied by the mist outlet pipe 3 and facilitate storage.

[0042] Alternatively, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the water tank 1 includes a box body 13 and a box cover 14. The box cover 14 is provided at the top of the box body 13 and is used to close the upper opening at the top of the box body 13. The mist outlet 12 is provided on the box cover 14, and the first end 31 of the mist outlet pipe 3 is detachably connected to the box cover 14, so that the mist outlet pipe 3 can be easily removed from the box cover 14 for cleaning and replacement. A conduit 15 is provided in the box body 13, and the conduit 15 extends in the water cavity 11 in the up and down directions.

There are multiple grooves 35, which are spaced apart around the inner circumference of the second end 33 of the mist outlet pipe 3. The multiple grooves 35 correspond one-to-one with the multiple protrusions 231. This ensures that the lower cover 23 and the second end 33 of the mist outlet pipe 3 are not easily rotated relative to each other after connection. The connection is simple and easy to install and remove.

[0051] Alternatively, as Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the lower cover 23 has a mounting hole 232, an inner extension 233 and an outer extension 234. The inner extension 233 extends downward from the edge of the mounting hole 232, and the mounting hole 232 passes through the lower cover 23 and the inner extension 233. The protrusion 231 is provided on the outer circumference of the inner extension 233. The outer extension 234 is provided on the outer circumference of the inner extension 233, and the lower end of the inner extension 233 is located below the lower end of the outer extension 234. A receiving groove 235 is formed between the outer circumference of the inner extension 233 and the inner circumference of the outer extension 234. The second end 33 of the mist outlet pipe 3 is provided in the receiving groove 235.
