One end of the torsion spring 1115 is connected to the rocker arm 1114 and enables the rocker arm 1114 to automatically reset. It can be understood that a protrusion 1134 is provided on the water tank 113, and the protrusion 1134 extends from the water tank 113 in the direction of the switch valve 1112. When the water tank 113 is installed in the first mounting member 111, the protrusion 1134 can press the other end of the rocker arm 1114 away from the plug 1113, so that the plug 1113 is removed from the first water outlet 1111, thereby connecting the first water outlet 1111 to the water tank 113; after the water tank 113 is disassembled, the protrusion 1134 is no longer in contact with the rocker arm 1114, and the rocker arm 1114 can automatically reset and seal the plug 1113 at the first water outlet 1111, thereby avoiding water leakage when the water tank 113 is disassembled.

[0045] Further, refer to Figure 9 The water tank 113 is provided with a water receiving tray 1131, which has a drain port 1132 communicating with the inner cavity of the water tank 113. It is understood that the condensed water flowing out of the first water outlet 1111 can first fall into the water receiving tray 1131, and then flow into the water tank 113 from the drain port 1132 in the water receiving tray 1131. Furthermore, a guide groove 1133 is provided in the water receiving tray 1131. The guide groove 1133 is recessed in the bottom wall of the water receiving tray 1131 and is located directly below the first water outlet 1111. The condensed water flowing out of the first water outlet 1111 can fall into the guide groove 1133, preventing the condensed water from spreading or accumulating in the water receiving tray 1131 and causing water accumulation, which is conducive to improving drainage efficiency. It can be understood that the drain outlet 1132 is located at one end of the guide groove 1133 close to the inner wall of the water tank 113. During the drainage process, the condensed water can flow along the side wall of the water tank 113 to the bottom of the water tank 113, which can effectively avoid dripping noise and improve the user experience.

[0046] Reference Figure 5 It is understood that the first mounting member 111 is also provided with a second water outlet 116, which is located on the side facing away from the water tank 113 and is connected to the water receiving trough 115. Furthermore, the second mounting member 121 is provided with a connecting pipe 117, which extends to the side of the housing 100 facing away from the water tank 113, with the second water outlet 116 located at the end of the connecting pipe 117. It is understood that when the water tank 113 is removed, water can be drained to the exterior of the housing 100 through the second water outlet 116, preventing water from accumulating within the housing 100. In other embodiments, the second water outlet 116 is connected to an external drain pipe for drainage, while the first water outlet 1111 is connected to the water tank 113, allowing both drainage methods to be used simultaneously. In other embodiments, the second water outlet 116 is closed, and the first water outlet 1111 is used for drainage. Multiple drainage methods can enhance the dehumidifier's operational flexibility. Furthermore, a cover 118 is provided on the second water outlet 116 , and the cover 118 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the box body 100 . When the second water outlet 116 is not in use, the cover 118 can be fixed to the box body 100 to close the second water outlet 116 .

[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2, a top cover 105 is provided on the top of the box body 100, and the air outlet 102 is located on the top cover 105, so that the air flow can be discharged upward in the vertical direction. It can be understood that there is a handle 107 on the top cover 105, and the handle 107 extends around the periphery of the air outlet 102 to avoid affecting the exhaust efficiency. Furthermore, the top cover 105 is provided with a recessed portion 108, and the recessed portion 108 is located on one side of the air outlet 102. The recessed portion 108 is located at the bottom of the handle 107 and is recessed downward, thereby forming a space between the handle 107 and the box body 100 that allows manual operation. Compared with the foldable and retractable handle 107, the fixedly installed handle 107 can be directly grasped, which is convenient to use. It does not need to be stored after use and is easy to operate. Therefore, while achieving a compact structural layout, it can ensure convenience of use and effectively improve the user experience.
