Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of humidifier technology, specifically to a humidifier with a detachable water tank that features cooling and noise reduction. Background Technology

[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance that increases indoor humidity by converting water into water vapor or tiny water droplets. This improves dry environments, reduces static electricity in the air, protects skin and respiratory health, and can also help improve sleep quality and reduce the spread of bacteria and viruses. Humidifiers are mainly categorized into ultrasonic humidifiers, steam humidifiers, pure humidifiers, and centrifugal humidifiers, each with its specific working principle and applicable scenarios.

[0003] Patent document CN214619923U discloses a steam humidifier, which includes a body with a water heating tray and a water storage tank. The water heating tray and the water storage tank are connected by a water passage. A water level control device is provided on the water passage to control the water level in the water heating tray. The water passage has a submerged water passage, the upper surface of which is lower than the bottom surface of the water heating tray. In this design, the water heating tray includes a surrounding plate and a heating base, with the heating base located at the bottom of the surrounding plate. The surrounding plate and the main body housing are integrally formed. The water heating tray is used to heat water to generate high-temperature steam.

[0004] However, after boiling water for a long time, more and more limescale will accumulate in the boiling pan. Since the boiling pan, which is integrated with the main unit, is almost inside the main unit, it is difficult to clean. If the humidification continues, the water vapor produced will contain more impurities, which may pose a potential risk to human health. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the problems in related technologies, this utility model proposes a humidifier with a detachable water tank that reduces temperature and noise, facilitating cleaning and maintenance of the water tank without damaging the humidifier.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A humidifier with a detachable water tank for cooling and noise reduction includes a base and a water tank; the base is provided with a first electrical coupler, and the water tank is provided with a second electrical coupler; the water tank is detachably installed on the upper side of the base and electrically connected through the first and second electrical couplers; the bottom of the water tank is provided with a heat-conducting part, and a heating unit is fixedly provided on the lower side of the heat-conducting part; the heating unit is electrically connected to the second electrical coupler.

[0008] The water tank has an opening at the top, at which a cooling and noise reduction device is installed; the cooling and noise reduction device has at least one partition to prevent fluid from rushing in directly; the cooling and noise reduction device also has a water vapor channel and a first air duct; one end of the water vapor channel is connected to the opening, and the other end is connected to the external environment; the water vapor channel passes through each of the partitions from bottom to top; the first air duct is connected to the water vapor channel.

[0009] The water tank and base are separate, and the heating unit and the second electrical coupler are fixedly connected to the water tank, making it easy to separate the water tank. Users can easily remove the water tank from the base for thorough cleaning and descaling without worrying about water or cleaning agents seeping into the electronic components of the base and causing damage.

[0010] During the generation of high-temperature steam, the boiling water inevitably produces some noise. The cooling and noise reduction device utilizes a partition design that not only effectively reduces noise but also allows the high-temperature steam to gradually cool as it passes through the partition. Simultaneously, the steam mixes with the air output from the first air duct as it passes through the partition, further reducing its temperature and ensuring that the final output steam temperature is maintained at approximately 60°C. This guarantees effective humidification while avoiding the risk of burns from direct contact with high-temperature steam, ultimately providing users with a quieter and safer experience.

[0011] As a further optimization of the above solution, the heating unit is a C-shaped electric heating tube, which is fitted to the lower side of the heat-conducting part, and the second electric coupler is fixedly disposed in the center of the C-shaped electric heating tube.

[0012] As a further optimization of the above solution, the heat-conducting part is integrally formed with the water tank, and the bottom of the water tank is the heat-conducting part.

[0013] As a further optimization of the above solution, the heat-conducting part is a heat-spreading plate, which is the same size as the bottom of the water tank; the heat-spreading plate is attached and fixed to the outer bottom of the water tank.

[0014] As a further optimization of the above solution, the upper side of the base is provided with a recessed mounting groove, and the first electrical coupler is located at the bottom center of the mounting groove, and the mounting groove is compatible with the bottom of the water tank.

[0015] As a further optimization of the above solution, an isolation cover is also provided on the outer periphery of the water tank. The isolation cover has openings at both the top and bottom, with the upper end connected to the cooling and noise reduction device and the lower end connected to the base.

[0016] The isolation cover can both insulate against sound and heat, further preventing noise from disturbing users and preventing users from touching the water tank which is in a high-temperature state.

[0017] As a further optimization of the above solution, the first air duct includes a first air inlet and a first air outlet. The first air inlet is connected to the external environment, and the first air outlet is connected to one of the partitions. The first air duct also includes a fan for drawing air into the first air duct.

[0018] As a further optimization of the above solution, the fan is located inside the base, and the base is also provided with a second air inlet and a second air outlet; the second air outlet is located on the upper side of the base; an annular second air duct is formed between the isolation cover and the water tank; the lower end of the second air duct is connected to the second air outlet, and the upper end is connected to the first air inlet.

[0019] A lot of heat can easily accumulate inside the isolation enclosure. The air passing through the second air duct can provide initial cooling to prevent the temperature on the isolation enclosure from becoming too high.

[0020] As a further optimization of the above solution, the fan is located inside the first air duct.

[0021] As a further optimization of the above solution, the top of the water tank is provided with a handle, and the two ends of the handle are hinged to the water tank.

[0022] A handle is provided for easy detachment of the water tank from the base. The handle is hinged to the water tank for convenient storage.

[0023] The beneficial effects are as follows:

[0024] This invention provides a humidifier with a detachable water tank and optimized cooling and noise reduction. The water tank, second electrical coupler, heating unit, and heat-conducting part are integrated into one unit, facilitating assembly and disassembly with the base. This allows for individual cleaning and maintenance of the water tank's interior, enabling more thorough removal of limescale while minimizing damage to electronic components. A cooling and noise reduction device is installed at the top opening of the water tank to reduce boiling noise generated during the formation of high-temperature water vapor and to cool the vapor, preventing scalding to the user.

[0038] A heating unit 23 is fixedly provided on the lower side of the heat-conducting part 22; in this embodiment, the heating unit 23 is a C-shaped electric heating tube, which is 3 / 4 ring-shaped. The C-shaped electric heating tube is attached to the lower side of the heat-conducting part 22, and the second electric coupler 21 is fixedly provided in the center of the C-shaped electric heating tube.

[0039] In this embodiment, the upper side of the base 1 is provided with a recessed mounting groove 12, and the first electrical coupler 11 is located at the bottom center of the mounting groove 12. The mounting groove 12 is adapted to the bottom of the water tank 2. The water tank 2 is detachably mounted on the upper side of the base 1 and electrically connected through the first electrical coupler 11 and the second electrical coupler 21; the heating unit 23 is electrically connected to the second electrical coupler 21.

[0040] The water tank 2 has an opening at the top. In this embodiment, a handle 24 is provided at the opening at the top of the water tank 2. The handle 24 spans the opening and its two ends are hinged to the water tank 2. The handle 24 is provided to facilitate the separation of the water tank 2 from the base 1. The handle 24 is hinged to the water tank 2, and it can be stored by simply rotating the handle 24 to the side of the water tank 2.

[0041] The opening is also equipped with a detachable cooling and noise reduction device 3.

[0042] In this embodiment, the cooling and noise reduction device 3 is provided with two stacked partitions 31 that block the direct flow of steam; the cooling and noise reduction device 3 is provided with a water vapor channel 32 and a first air duct 33; one end of the water vapor channel 32 is connected to an opening, and the other end is connected to the external environment; the water vapor channel 32 passes through each partition 31 from bottom to top.

[0044] The first air duct 33 also includes a fan, which is disposed within the base 1 and is used to draw air into the first air duct 33. In this embodiment, the fan is disposed within the base 1, and the base 1 also includes a second air inlet 13 and a second air outlet 14; the second air outlet 14 is located on the upper side of the base 1.
