In addition, the present application provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but those skilled in the art can realize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0157] Below, with reference to the drawings, the humidifying module 100 according to the first aspect of the present application is described.
[0158] Referring to Figure 1 The humidifying module 100 includes a water tray 1, a water tank 3, and a valve switch 5. The water tray 1 forms a first water pool 111 with an open top. The water tank 3 includes a tank body 31 and a water outlet valve 32. The tank body 31 is arranged above the water tray 1 and has a water outlet portion 314 extending into the first water pool 111 at the bottom. The water outlet valve 32 is installed on one side in the horizontal direction of the water outlet portion 314. The valve switch 5 is arranged on one side in the horizontal direction of the water outlet valve 32 and is used to open the water outlet valve 32. The water tank 3 injects water into the first water pool 111 through the opening of the water outlet valve 32.
[0159] In the related art, the valve switch is arranged below the bottom of the water tank. When the water tank is disassembled, it is necessary to first lift the water tank upward by a high distance to avoid the valve switch, and then horizontally move the water tank out, or it is necessary to rotate the water tank by a large angle to avoid the valve switch at the bottom, and then horizontally pull out the water tank. These operations all require a larger operating space above the water tank.
[0160] In the embodiments of the present application, the valve switch 5 is located on one side in the horizontal direction of the water outlet valve 32. When disassembling the water tank 3, there is no need to consider avoiding the valve switch at the bottom. No space needs to be reserved above the water tank 3 to avoid the valve switch at the bottom. The water tank 3 can be directly horizontally moved out or moved out by a small angle according to the design of the air duct frame 2, thereby reducing the space required for installing the humidifying module 100, making the structure of the humidifying module 100 more compact, and occupying less space.
[0161] In the technical solution, the valve switch 5 is used to open the water outlet valve 32, and the water tank 3 injects water into the first pool 111 through the water outlet valve 32 when the water outlet valve 32 is in the open state; when the water level in the first pool 111 reaches a preset height, the valve switch 5 cancels the opening of the water outlet valve 32, so that the water outlet valve 32 is closed, or the valve switch 5 can drive the water outlet valve 32 to be closed, at which time the water tank 3 stops injecting water into the first pool 111, realizing the automation of water injection and improving the convenience of use.
[0162] In addition, the water tank 3 is arranged above the water tray 1, and the water outlet part 314 directly extends into the first pool 111, reducing the space occupation, so that the entire humidifying module 100 is more compact and beautiful, and the structure of the water tank 3 and the water tray 1 is relatively simple and easy to disassemble, which is more convenient and fast during cleaning and maintenance.
[0163] In the embodiment of the present application, the valve switch 5 is arranged on one side of the water outlet valve 32 in the horizontal direction and is used to open the water outlet valve 32, wherein the valve switch 5 is not limited in the way of opening the water outlet valve 32, for example, it can be mechanical or electromagnetic, etc. Illustratively, if the water outlet valve 32 is mechanical, it can be straight, rotating, lever, cam, etc. If the water outlet valve 32 is electromagnetic, it can be an electromagnetic valve, etc.
[0164] In the embodiment of the present application, the specific structure of the water outlet valve 32 is not limited, for example, when the water outlet valve 32 is opened, the water tank 3 can be arranged to flow out through the channel defined by the water outlet valve 32 itself, or the water tank 3 can also be arranged to flow out through the channel defined by the water outlet valve 32 and the water tank 3 together.
[0165] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , and combining Figure 6 , the water outlet valve 32 includes a valve core 321, the water outlet valve 32 switches between the open and closed states through the horizontal movement of the valve core 321 in the first direction F1, and the two ends of the valve core 321 in the first direction F1 are respectively a valve core head 3211a and a valve core tail 3211b. The valve switch 5 opens the water outlet valve 32 by pushing the valve core head 3211a to move in the first direction F1 towards the valve core tail 3211b.
[0166] Wherein, the first direction F1 refers to a certain direction extending in the horizontal direction, for example, it can be the left-right direction as shown in Figure 1 , or it can also be the front-back direction, etc.
[0167] Further, since the valve switch 5 opens the water outlet valve 32 by pushing the valve core head 3211a to move in the first direction F1 toward the valve core tail 3211b, the movement of the valve core 321 in the first direction F1 toward the valve core head 3211a can achieve the closing of the water outlet valve 32.
[0168] In the above technical solution, the valve switch 5 can open or close the water outlet valve 32 by pushing the valve core head 3211a to move in a certain direction, which is simple and easy to operate and easy to implement; the translational movement of the valve core 321 makes the overall structure of the water outlet valve 32 simple and compact, saving space.
[0169] In addition, compared with other valves with complex structures, the translational movement of the valve core 321 has a simple movement trajectory, reduces the possibility of failure, and improves reliability; due to the simple structure, the overall maintenance of the water outlet valve 32 is also more convenient.
[0170] In the above solution, the driving mode of the translational movement of the valve core 321 can be achieved by an electric device such as a motor or an electromagnet to realize the switching of the opening and closing actions of the water outlet valve 32; in addition, it can be understood that the electric device can be directly connected to the valve core 321 to drive the valve core 321 to move, or can indirectly drive the valve core 321 to move through other mechanical structures.
[0171] In addition, the driving mode of the translational movement of the valve core 321 can also be achieved by using gas pressure or vacuum. For example, a pneumatic cylinder can be used to push the valve core 321 to move translationally.
[0172] However, the water outlet valve 32 of the embodiments of the present application is not limited to being configured to realize the opening and closing switching by the translational movement of the valve core 321, for example, in other embodiments of the present application, the switching state switching can also be realized by the rotation or deformation of the valve core 321.
[0173] For example, the water outlet valve 32 that realizes the switching state switching by the rotation of the valve core 321 can be a ball valve, a butterfly valve, a plug valve, a rotary plate valve, etc.; the water outlet valve 32 that realizes the switching state switching by the deformation of the valve core 321 can be a diaphragm valve, an elastic seat valve, a bellows valve, etc.
[0174] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the side end surface of the valve core head 3211a away from the valve core tail 3211b includes a guide surface part 3211a1, which is formed as a conical surface protruding toward the direction away from the valve core tail 3211b. That is, the cross section of the guide surface part 3211a1 decreases toward the direction of the valve core tail 3211b to form part of a conical surface.
[0175] It is worth mentioning that the "conical surface" described in the present application is understood in a broad sense, that is, at least a part of the conical surface, for example, it can be a complete conical surface, or a truncated conical surface, and so on.
[0176] In the above technical solution, the conical surface of the valve core head 3211a is designed as a guide, so that during assembly, the components of the valve switch 5 are guided by the conical guide surface to slide to the correct fitting position, reducing errors and resistance during assembly, thereby improving assembly efficiency.
[0177] Therefore, the conical surface of the valve core head 3211a can reduce the interference and jamming of the valve switch 5 and the water outlet valve 32 during assembly, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the valve.
[0178] In addition, the conical guide surface can also reduce the friction and wear between the valve core 321 and the valve switch 5 to some extent, thereby prolonging the service life of the valve.
[0179] However, the guide surface part 3211a1 of the present application is not limited to a conical surface, and any shape that has a guiding function to meet the assembly requirements can be used, for example, the guide surface part 3211a1 is a revolution body shape with a recessed inclined surface or a convex inclined surface as the generatrix.
[0180] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , and referring to Figure 6 , the side end surface of the valve core head 3211a away from the valve core tail 3211b also includes a central surface part 3211a2, and the guide surface part 3211a1 surrounds the central surface part 3211a2. The central surface part 3211a2 is configured as a plane perpendicular to the first direction F1, and the valve switch 5 moves the valve core 321 along the first direction F1 by pushing against the central surface part 3211a2.
[0181] In the above technical solution, the central surface part 3211a2 of the valve core head 3211a is configured as a plane perpendicular to the first direction F1, which enables the valve switch 5 to directly and effectively transmit force to the valve core 321 along the first direction F1 when pushing against the central surface part 3211a2, thereby improving the opening reliability and efficiency of the water outlet valve 32.
[0182] In addition, since the central surface part 3211a2 is a plane, the contact area with the valve switch 5 is larger, so that the pushing force can be transmitted more stably, and the shaking or instability phenomenon caused by insufficient contact area can be reduced.
[0183] For example, as Figure 2As shown, the cooperation process between the water outlet valve 32 and the valve switch 5 of one specific embodiment is described. The water outlet valve 32 comprises a valve core 321, two ends of the valve core 321 in the left-right direction are respectively a valve core head 3211a and a valve core tail 3211b, the right side end surface of the valve core head 3211a comprises a guide surface part 3211a1, which is formed as a tapered surface protruding towards the right side direction. The right side end surface of the valve core head 3211a further comprises a center surface part 3211a2, the guide surface part 3211a1 surrounds the center surface part 3211a2, the center surface part 3211a2 is configured as a vertical plane perpendicular to the left-right direction, and the valve switch 5 moves the valve core 321 to the left by pushing against the center surface part 3211a2.
[0184] When the water tank 3 is installed, the water tank 3 moves vertically downward, if the guide surface part 3211a1 contacts with the valve switch 5 during the downward movement, the valve core 321 will move to the left due to the force of the guide surface part 3211a1 as the water tank 3 moves vertically downward, until the valve switch 5 abuts against the center area of the center surface part 3211a2. Therefore, the design of the guide surface part 3211a1 of the valve core head 3211a reduces the error and resistance during the assembly process of the water tank 3; the center surface part 3211a2 of the valve core head 3211a is configured as a plane perpendicular to the first direction F1, so that the valve switch 5 can directly and effectively transmit the force to the valve core 321 when pushing against the center surface part 3211a2; in addition, the contact area between the center surface part 3211a2 and the valve switch 5 is large, which can more stably transmit the pushing force, and the transmission is more simple and reliable.
[0185] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the water outlet valve 32 further comprises a valve seat 322, the valve seat 322 is installed on the water outlet part 314 and defines a drainage passage 3220, the valve core 321 is arranged in the valve seat 322 along the first direction F1, two sides of the valve seat 322 in the first direction F1 are respectively a water outlet side and a water inlet side, the valve core head 3211a is located on the water outlet side of the valve seat 322, the valve core tail 3211b is located on the water inlet side of the valve seat 322, and the valve core 321 closes the water outlet valve 32 by blocking the drainage passage 3220.
[0186] In the above technical solution, the drainage is realized only through the drainage passage 3220 defined by the water outlet valve 32 itself, and no longer relies on the cooperation between the specific structure of the tank body 31 and the water outlet valve 32 to realize the drainage, so the tank body 31 does not need to consider the complex water outlet closing mechanism when designing, which simplifies the structure design and processing of the tank body 31.
[0187] Exemplarily, the water outlet valve 32 and the tank 31 can be connected in a detachable manner. In this case, since the water outlet valve 32 no longer depends on the specific structure of the tank 31 to cooperate with the water outlet valve 32 to achieve drainage, the installation and removal of the water outlet valve 32 are less restricted, the assembly process of the water outlet valve 32 and the tank 31 becomes simpler, and the production efficiency is improved. In addition, when the water outlet of the water tank 3 fails, the water outlet valve 32 can be replaced alone without replacing the entire tank 31, thereby reducing maintenance cost and time.
[0188] In the embodiments of the present application, the valve seat 322 and the valve core 321 can be made of different materials, such as ceramics, plastics, metals, etc., to meet different requirements of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, etc. It can be understood that, in addition to directly plugging the drainage passage 3220 by the valve core 321, a rubber sealing ring, an O-ring, etc. can also be used to improve the sealing performance. In addition, in addition to the detachable connection, the water outlet valve 32 can also be designed to be connected with the tank 31 in a non-detachable manner.
[0189] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the valve seat 322 includes a valve end plate 3221 and a water outlet ring 3222, the water outlet ring 3222 protrudes from the valve end plate 3221 towards the water inlet side of the valve seat 322, the water outlet ring 3222 extends in the first direction F1 in the axial direction, the drainage passage 3220 includes a passage cavity 32221 surrounded by the water outlet ring 3222, and a passage hole 32211 defined by the valve end plate 3221, the valve core head 3211a is located on the water outlet side of the valve end plate 3221, the valve core tail 3211b is located on the water inlet side of the water outlet ring 3222, the valve core 321 includes a sealing element 3212 located on the water inlet side of the water outlet ring 3222, and the valve core 321 seals the inlet end 32222 of the water outlet ring 3222 by the sealing element 3212 to block the drainage passage 3220.
[0190] In the above technical solution, by designing the water outlet ring 3222 on the valve end plate 3221 and cooperating with the sealing element 3212 for shape sealing design, the closing of the water outlet valve 32 can be more effectively realized. The water outlet ring 3222 provides a more stable contact surface for the sealing element 3212, thereby reducing the risk of water leakage and improving the closing reliability. The design of the water outlet ring 3222 not only improves the sealing performance, but also enhances the structural strength of the valve seat 322, disperses the impact of the water flow on the valve seat 322, and helps to prevent the valve end plate 3221 from being damaged due to long-term stress.
[0191] The drainage channel 3220 includes a channel cavity 32221 surrounded by the water outlet ring 3222, and a channel hole 32211 defined by the valve end plate 3221. When draining water, the water in the water tank 3 first enters the channel cavity 32221, and then is drained out through the channel hole 32211. Compared with the scheme of directly draining water from the hole on the valve end plate 3221, this design not only makes the water flow more smoothly, reduces water flow impact and turbulence, but also improves the drainage efficiency. The channel cavity 32221 plays a role of buffering and buffering, which helps to stabilize the water flow and avoid direct impact on the channel hole 32211 on the valve end plate 3221, forming a high-intensity jet flow to cause the water in the first water pool 111 to splash out.
[0192] Therefore, due to the improved closing reliability and smoothness of drainage, the maintenance demand caused by water leakage or poor drainage is reduced, the maintenance cost is reduced, and the service life of the water outlet valve 32 is prolonged.
[0193] In the embodiments of the present application, the cross section of the water outlet ring 3222 can be designed in different shapes, such as circular, oval, rectangular, etc., to adapt to different water flow requirements and space limitations. The shape should be selected based on the principle of fluid dynamics to ensure smooth water flow and reliable sealing.
[0194] Exemplarily, the sealing member 3212 can also be designed in an adjustable form according to the needs, such as adjusting the compression amount between it and the water outlet ring 3222 through threads, buckles, etc. In this way, the sealing effect can be adjusted according to the sealing requirements in actual use.
[0195] Exemplarily, the sealing member 3212 can adopt different materials such as rubber and silica gel to meet different corrosion resistance, wear resistance and sealing performance requirements. The selection of the material should be considered according to the working environment and service life.
[0196] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the side end face of the sealing member 3212 close to the valve core head 3211a includes a sealing surface part 32121, which is formed as a conical frustum surface protruding in the direction of the valve core head 3211a, and the sealing member 3212 covers the inlet end 32222 of the water outlet ring 3222 through the sealing surface part 32121. That is, the cross section of the sealing surface part 32121 decreases in the direction of the valve core head 3211a to form a conical frustum surface with a truncated conical tip.
[0197] In the above technical solution, the sealing surface part 32121 of the sealing member 3212 is designed as a conical frustum surface protruding towards the valve core head 3211a. When the valve core 321 is closed, part of the sealing surface part 32121 extends into the water outlet ring 3222, which can more effectively contact the inlet end 32222 of the water outlet ring 3222 and form a tighter seal. In addition, the design of the conical frustum surface helps to form uniform pressure distribution between the sealing member 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the seal.
[0198] It can be understood that the design of the conical frustum surface also enhances the adaptability of the sealing member 3212 to different working conditions. Since the conical frustum surface has a certain elastic deformation capability, it can compensate for wear caused by manufacturing tolerances, installation errors or long-term use to some extent, thereby maintaining stable sealing effect.
[0199] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the valve core 321 includes a valve core stem 3211, both ends of the valve core stem 3211 are respectively a valve core head 3211a and a valve core tail 3211b, and the sealing member 3212 is assembled on the valve core stem 3211.
[0200] Exemplarily, the sealing member 3212 is a piece of elastic material.
[0201] Exemplarily, the cross section of the valve core tail 3211b gradually decreases in a direction away from the valve core head 3211a, the valve core stem 3211 is formed with an embedding groove 32110 on the side of the valve core tail 3211b close to the valve core head 3211a, and the sealing member 3212 is sleeved on the outside of the valve core stem 3211 and clamped in the embedding groove 32110.
[0202] In the above technical solution, the valve core stem 3211 and the sealing member 3212 are in a split structure and assembled together. The materials of the valve core stem 3211 and the sealing member 3212 can be different to meet the respective functional requirements. For example, the valve core stem 3211 is made of a material with good rigidity, such as plastic or metal. For example, the sealing member 3212 is made of a material with good sealing performance, such as an elastic material, exemplarily, such as rubber, silicone, etc., which has good elasticity and recovery. When the valve core 321 is closed, the sealing member 3212 can tightly fit the inlet end 32222 of the water outlet ring 3222 to form an effective seal and prevent water leakage.
[0203] In the above technical solution, the sealing member 3212 is installed on the valve core stem 3211 by clamping, specifically, it is sleeved on the outside of the valve core stem 3211 and clamped in the embedding groove 32110. This installation method not only simplifies the assembly process, but also improves the connection reliability between the sealing member 3212 and the valve core stem 3211, so that the sealing member 3212 is not easy to fall off or loosen during use.
[0204] The cross section of the valve core tail 3211b gradually decreases in the direction away from the valve core head 3211a, forming a tapered structure. This design can guide the installation, making the sealing element 3212 more easily and accurately fitted on the valve core rod 3211 and clamped in the embedding groove 32110. At the same time, it is also convenient for operation when disassembling.
[0205] In the embodiments of the present application, the connection mode of the sealing element 3212 and the valve core 321 is not limited to clamping in the embedding groove 32110, but can also be through threads or buckles for limiting position, so as to improve the connection strength and stability between the sealing element 3212 and the valve core rod 3211.
[0206] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the sealing element 3212 is separated from the water outlet ring 3222 in the open state of the water outlet valve 32, and the minimum distance B between the sealing element 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222 is not less than 6.5 mm or 5-8 mm.
[0207] In the above technical solution, by controlling the minimum distance B between the sealing element 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222 in the open state of the water outlet valve 32 (i.e. the movement stroke of the valve core 321 of the water outlet valve 32), it is ensured that there is enough gap between the sealing element 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222 in the open state of the water outlet valve 32 to overcome the influence of water tension on water outlet. When the sealing element 3212 is opened, even if there is water tension, as the minimum distance between the sealing element 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222 is large enough, it can also ensure that water can flow out smoothly, reducing the possibility of no water outlet.
[0208] In the embodiments of the present application, the minimum distance B between the sealing element 3212 and the water outlet ring 3222 is not less than 6.5 mm or 5-8 mm, and optionally, B can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 6.5 mm, 7 mm, or 8 mm, etc.
[0209] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the orthographic projection of the channel hole 32211 along the first direction F1 falls within the coverage range of the orthographic projection of the valve core head 3211a along the first direction F1, and the valve core head 3211a is provided with a limiting rib 3211c protruding towards the valve end plate 3221, so that the valve core head 3211a is always spaced apart from the valve end plate 3221.
[0210] In the technical solution, the limiting ribs 3211c on the valve core head 3211a protrude towards the valve end plate 3221, which can ensure that the valve core head 3211a does not directly contact the passage hole 32211 of the valve end plate 3221, thereby avoiding the problem of the valve core head 3211a blocking the passage hole 32211 and causing no water to flow out.
[0211] The orthographic projection of the passage hole 32211 along the first direction F1 falls within the coverage range of the orthographic projection of the valve core head 3211a along the first direction F1, that is, the valve core head 3211a is large, which not only helps to closely match the valve switch 5, improves the sealing and stability of the water outlet valve 32, but also provides sufficient support surface for the limiting ribs 3211c, improves the strength and stability of the abutment between the limiting ribs 3211c and the valve end plate 3221, and thus increases the reliability and durability of the water outlet valve 32.
[0212] In the embodiments of the present application, the shape, size and number of the limiting ribs 3211c can be adjusted according to actual needs to better adapt to different water outlet valve 32 designs and use scenarios. For example, the height or width of the limiting ribs 3211c can be increased to improve the reliability of the support; or the limiting ribs 3211c can be designed in an arc shape or other shapes.
[0213] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 or Figure 4 , the distance C between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221 in the open state of the water outlet valve 32 is not less than 6.5 mm or is 5-8 mm.
[0214] In the technical solution, the distance C between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221 can ensure that when the valve core head 3211a is opened, the water flow can smoothly pass through the water outlet valve 32 and will not be hindered by the close contact between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221, and will not be blocked by the water tension to cause no water to flow out.
[0215] In addition, the water outlet valve 32 can be more conveniently maintained and cleaned, and the long-term stable operation of the water outlet valve 32 can be ensured.
[0216] In the embodiments of the present application, the distance C between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221 is not less than 6.5 mm or is 5-8 mm, and optionally, C can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 6.5 mm, 7 mm or 8 mm, etc.
[0217] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 or Figure 4The water outlet valve 32 further comprises a reset spring 324 arranged between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221, and used to drive the valve core head 3211a to move in the first direction F1 away from the valve end plate 3221, so that the valve core 321 blocks the drainage passage 3220.
[0218] In the above technical solution, the reset spring 324 is arranged between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221, when the valve switch 5 cancels the opening driving of the water outlet valve 32, the reset spring 324 can push the valve core head 3211a to move reversely in the first direction F1, and drive the sealing element 3212 of the valve core tail 3211b to move in the direction of the water outlet ring 3222, so that the sealing surface part 32121 of the sealing element 3212 covers the inlet end 32222 of the water outlet ring 3222, and the drainage passage 3220 is blocked, so as to ensure that the water outlet valve 32 can keep closed when drainage is not needed.
[0219] Therefore, under the elastic force of the reset spring 324, the sealing element 3212 can be stably and reliably attached to the water outlet ring 3222 to block the drainage passage 3220, and the possibility of leakage is reduced. Moreover, other closing driving modes are omitted, and the device and structure are simplified.
[0220] It can be understood that the technical solution of the present application is not limited thereto, and in addition to the reset spring 324, a magnetic attraction mode can be further used to enhance the sealing effect between the valve core head 3211a and the valve end plate 3221. The magnetic attraction force can assist the reset spring 324 to ensure that the valve core head 3211a can be more firmly attached to the mouth of the drainage passage 3220 when closed. Alternatively, the magnetic attraction mode can also be used to replace the reset spring 324.
[0221] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 The water outlet part 314 comprises an installation ring 3141 protruding outward in the first direction F1, the water outlet ring 3222 is arranged in the ring hole of the installation ring 3141, the sealing element 3212 and the valve end plate 3221 are arranged on the two axial sides of the installation ring 3141, that is, the valve end plate 3221 is located outside the installation ring 3141, and the sealing element 3212 does not enter the installation ring 3141 during the movement of the valve core 321; the valve seat 322 further comprises a cooperation ring 3223 connected with the valve end plate 3221, the cooperation ring 3223 surrounds the installation ring 3141, and the inner circumferential surface of the cooperation ring 3223 is threadedly engaged with the outer circumferential surface of the installation ring 3141.
[0222] In the above technical solution, the water outlet ring 3222 is arranged with the mounting ring 3141, and the sealing element 3212 is allowed to move on the inner side of the mounting ring 3141, thereby avoiding direct contact and interference between the sealing element 3212 and the mounting ring 3141. This design not only protects the sealing element 3212, but also enables the sealing element 3212 to more effectively cover the sealing area of the water outlet valve 32, thereby increasing the sealing area and improving the sealing effect.
[0223] The water outlet ring 3222 and the mounting ring 3141 are connected in a threaded connection manner, making the disassembly and replacement of the water outlet valve 32 simple and easy to operate, reducing maintenance costs and improving maintenance efficiency; the threaded connection not only facilitates disassembly, but also provides stable connection force, enabling the connection between the water outlet valve 32 and the water outlet portion 314 to remain sealed.
[0224] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the water outlet valve 32 further includes a sealing gasket 323 located between the fitting ring 3223 and the water outlet ring 3222 and sealingly fitted between the mounting ring 3141 and the valve end plate 3221. Thus, the design of the sealing gasket 323 enhances the sealing performance of the water outlet valve 32. It is located between the fitting ring 3223 and the water outlet ring 3222, and between the mounting ring 3141 and the valve end plate 3221, forming a waterproof barrier, which helps to prevent water from leaking from the connection between the water outlet valve 32 and the water outlet portion 314, improving the tightness of the water tank 3.
[0225] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 13 , the bottom of the water outlet portion 314 has an upwardly protruding upper protruding structure 3142, and a limiting recess 3143 is formed below the upper protruding structure 3142. The bottom of the first water pool 111 has an upwardly protruding limiting protrusion 1111. The water outlet portion 314 and the first water pool 111 are limitedly fitted by the limiting recess 3143 and the limiting protrusion 1111, thereby preventing the relative movement of the water tank 3 relative to the water receiving tray 1 in the first direction F1.
[0226] In the above technical solution, by arranging the limiting recess 3143 at the bottom of the water tank 3 and cooperating with the limiting protrusion 1111 at the bottom of the first water pool 111, the relative movement of the water tank 3 in the first direction F1 is effectively limited, ensuring the stability of the water tank 3 during use. The arrangement of the limiting recess 3143 and the limiting protrusion 1111 not only achieves the limiting function, but also controls the installation size of the water tank 3, avoiding poor cooperation between the water outlet valve 32 and the valve switch 5 due to size deviation during installation, which causes the water outlet valve 32 to not fully open or not tightly close, thereby enhancing the control stability and reliability of the water outlet valve 32.
[0227] In some embodiments, the upper convex structure 3142 is located on the side of the seal 3212 away from the mounting ring 3141 in the first direction F1, and the distance between the upper convex structure 3142 and the mounting ring 3141 is greater than or equal to 10 mm. In this way, the upper convex structure 3142 is located on the side of the seal 3212 away from the mounting ring 3141 in the first direction F1, and the distance between the upper convex structure 3142 and the mounting ring 3141 is greater than or equal to 10 mm, effectively avoiding interference between the seal 3212 and the upper convex structure 3142 on the bottom of the water tank 3 when the valve core 321 moves to the left to the maximum position, ensuring that the seal 3212 can normally perform the opening operation.
[0228] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the valve switch 5 is arranged on the side of the water outlet valve 32 in the first direction F1, and the valve switch 5 includes a motor 51 and a driving member 52. The motor 51 drives the valve core 321 to move in the first direction F1 through the driving member 52. The driving member 52 includes a rotating shaft 521 extending in the vertical direction and a swing protrusion 522 protruding from the outer surface of the rotating shaft 521. The rotating shaft 521 is connected to the motor 51 and pushes the valve core head 3211a through the swing protrusion 522.
[0229] In the above technical solution, the motor 51 drives the valve core 321 to move, realizing automatic control of the water outlet valve 32 and improving the intelligent level and operation convenience of the equipment.
[0230] The design of the driving member 52 includes the rotating shaft 521 extending in the vertical direction and the swing protrusion 522 protruding from the outer surface of the rotating shaft 521. The structure is compact and effective, can fully utilize the space, and reduce the overall size of the valve switch 5.
[0231] In the embodiments of the present application, in addition to the mode of pushing the valve core head 3211a by the swing protrusion 522, other forms of driving member 52 can also be considered, such as a screw transmission mechanism, a gear transmission mechanism, etc., to realize the linear motion of the valve core 321.
[0232] It can be understood that according to different application scenarios and requirements, different types of motors 51 can be selected, such as a direct current motor, an alternating current motor, a stepping motor, etc., to provide different driving forces and control accuracies.
[0233] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the swing protrusion 522 can reciprocate between a first angle position and a second angle position. When the swing protrusion 522 swings to the first angle position (for example Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown in FIG. 6, when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the first angle position, the drive spool 321 opens the water outlet valve 32, and when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the second angle position (for example, as shown in FIG. 7), the release spool 321 closes the water outlet valve 32. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown in FIG. 7, when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the second angle position, the release spool 321 closes the water outlet valve 32.
[0234] In some embodiments, the water tank 1 has a first blocking rib 11532, and when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the first angle position, the swing protrusion 522 abuts against the first blocking rib 11532 to prevent the swing protrusion 522 from continuing to swing away from the second angle position.
[0235] In some embodiments, the water tank 1 has a second blocking rib 11533, and when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the second angle position, the swing protrusion 522 abuts against the second blocking rib 11533 to prevent the swing protrusion 522 from continuing to swing away from the first angle position.
[0236] In some embodiments, the water tank 1 has a first blocking rib 11532 and a second blocking rib 11533, and when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the first angle position, the swing protrusion 522 abuts against the first blocking rib 11532 to prevent the swing protrusion 522 from continuing to swing away from the second angle position, and when the swing protrusion 522 swings to the second angle position, the swing protrusion 522 abuts against the second blocking rib 11533 to prevent the swing protrusion 522 from continuing to swing away from the first angle position.
[0237] In the above technical solution, the swing protrusion 522 is driven by the motor 51 to swing back and forth between the first angle position and the second angle position, which can accurately control the opening and closing of the water outlet valve 32 and realize automatic control.
[0238] The first blocking rib 11532 and the second blocking rib 11533 effectively limit the swing range of the swing protrusion 522, prevent the swing protrusion 522 from swinging excessively and damaging the water outlet valve 32 or related components, and improve the reliability and service life of the equipment.
[0239] In addition, the structure of the technical solution is relatively simple, easy to implement and manufacture, and reduces production and maintenance costs.
[0240] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11The first water tank 111 has a second boss 11531 and a third boss 11541, the third boss 11541 is suspended above the second boss 11531, and the third boss 11541 is provided with a clearance 115410 corresponding to the second boss 11531, the second boss 11531 is provided with a rotating hole 115310, the motor 51 includes a motor body 511 and a driving shaft 512, the motor body 511 is installed on the top of the third boss 11541, the driving shaft 512 is protruded from the lower end of the motor body 511 and is provided corresponding to the clearance 115410, the lower end of the rotating shaft 521 is pivotally connected with the rotating hole 115310, and the upper end of the rotating shaft 521 is in transmission cooperation with the driving shaft 512.
[0241] In the above technical solution, by installing the motor body 511 on the third boss 11541, the driving shaft 512 is in transmission cooperation with the rotating shaft 521 through the clearance 115410 (that is, at least one of the driving shaft 512 and the rotating shaft 521 is arranged in the clearance 115410, and the driving shaft 512 and the rotating shaft 521 are in transmission cooperation connection to transmit torque), so that the overall structure is more compact, which is beneficial to reduce the volume and occupied space of the equipment.
[0242] In addition, by installing the motor body 511 on the top of the third boss 11541, the maintenance and replacement of the motor 51 are more convenient and fast, without the need to disassemble other parts inside the water tank. Moreover, the setting height of the motor body 511 is improved, which can play a role in preventing moisture, and is beneficial to improve the working reliability and service life of the motor body 511.
[0243] The third boss 11541 is suspended above the second boss 11531, and the clearance 115410 provides sufficient space for the driving shaft 512 to transmit power, avoiding stability problems caused by structural interference. At the same time, the lower end of the rotating shaft 521 is pivotally connected with the rotating hole 115310 on the second boss 11531, ensuring the stable rotation of the rotating shaft 521.
[0244] Therefore, efficient transmission of the power of the motor 51 is realized, energy loss is reduced, and the overall efficiency of the equipment is improved.
[0245] In the embodiments of the present application, in addition to the square clearance 115410 as shown in Figure 11 , other shapes of the clearance 115410 can also be considered, such as circular, elliptical, etc., to adapt to different shapes and sizes of the driving shaft 512.
[0246] In addition, in addition to directly transmitting power through the driving shaft 512 and the rotating shaft 521, indirect transmission cooperation can also be considered, such as gears, belts, chains, etc., to meet the needs of different transmission distances, transmission directions, and transmission speeds.
[0247] It can be understood that bearings or other support structures can be arranged at the upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft 521 to improve the rotation stability and load bearing capacity of the rotating shaft 521.
[0248] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the box body 31 includes a water tank portion 311, the two side walls of the water tank portion 311 in the first direction F1 are a first box body side wall 311a and a second box body side wall 311b, a water outlet portion 314 protrudes below the water tank portion 311 and is arranged close to the second box body side wall 311b relative to the first box body side wall 311a, the water outlet valve 32 is arranged on the side of the water outlet portion 314 away from the first box body side wall 311a, and at least part of the water outlet portion 314 is recessed towards the first box body side wall 311a relative to the second box body side wall 311b, so that the water outlet valve 32 does not protrude from the second box body side wall 311b towards the direction away from the first box body side wall 311a.
[0249] There are many ways for at least part of the water outlet portion 314 to be recessed towards the first box body side wall 311a relative to the second box body side wall 311b, for example, the entire water outlet portion 314 can be recessed towards the first box body side wall 311a relative to the second box body side wall 311b, or the water outlet portion 314 can be formed with a groove recessed towards the first box body side wall 311a relative to the second box body side wall 311b, and the like.
[0250] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 12 , the first direction F1 is the left-right direction of the water tank 3, the box body 31 includes a water tank portion 311, the first box body side wall 311a of the water tank portion 311 is a left side wall, the second box body side wall 311b is a right side wall, the water outlet portion 314 protrudes below the water tank portion 311 and is arranged close to the right side wall, the water outlet valve 32 is arranged on the side of the water outlet portion 314 close to the right side wall, and at least part of the water outlet portion 314 is recessed towards the left side wall, so that the water outlet valve 32 does not protrude from the right side wall to the right.
[0251] The water outlet portion 314 protrudes below the water tank portion 311, but at least part of the water outlet portion 314 is recessed towards the left side wall relative to the right side wall, and the water outlet valve 32 does not protrude from the right side wall, thereby reducing the occupied space of the entire box body 31 in the left-right direction and making the overall structure more compact.
[0252] In addition, since the water outlet valve 32 does not protrude from the right side wall, interference with other equipment or space is avoided, making installation more convenient and fast. For example, when the water tank 3 is installed downward, the knocking damage of the water outlet valve 32 to other components can be reduced.
[0253] In some embodiments, as Figure 14As shown, the humidification module 100 further comprises an air duct frame 2 and a wet film assembly 4, the water tray 1 further defines a second water pool 121 communicating with the first water pool 111, the air duct frame 2 defines a humidification air duct 211, and the wet film assembly 4 is arranged in the humidification air duct 211 and absorbs water from the second water pool 121; the air duct frame 2 is arranged above the water tray 1 and defines a mounting cavity 2211, the mounting cavity 2211 is located above the first water pool 111 and is open at the front side, the bottom of the mounting cavity 2211 is provided with an open hole 2214 communicating the mounting cavity 2211 with the first water pool 111, the water tank 3 is arranged in the mounting cavity 2211, and the water outlet 314 of the water tank 3 extends downward into the first water pool 111 through the open hole 2214, and the water tank 3 is rotatably arranged through the open hole at the front side of the mounting cavity 2211.
[0254] In the above technical solution, through the close cooperation of the air duct frame 2, the wet film assembly 4 and the water tray 1, a compact and powerful humidification module 100 is constructed.
[0255] The water tank 3 is rotatably arranged through the open hole at the front side of the mounting cavity 2211, so that the user can easily disassemble and replace the water tank 3, greatly simplifying the maintenance work.
[0256] The communication design of the first water pool 111 and the second water pool 121, the installation of the water tank 3 and the arrangement of the wet film assembly 4 do not interfere with each other, that is, the water absorption requirement of the wet film assembly 4 is met, and the water supply requirement of the water tank 3 to the water tray 1 is met.
[0257] Referring to Figure 46 , Figure 47 , Figure 48 and Figure 49 , according to the air treatment component 1000 of the second aspect of the present application, the humidification module 100, the purification module 200 and the fresh air module 300 are arranged in sequence along the airflow flow direction.
[0258] According to the air treatment component 1000 of the present application, by arranging the humidification module 100 of the above first aspect, the space occupation of the air treatment component 1000 is reduced.
[0259] The purification module 200 is located downstream of the fresh air module 300, and the humidification module 100 is arranged downstream of the purification module 200, wherein "downstream" refers to the position reached after the airflow passes in the direction.
[0260] The fresh air module 300, the purification module 200 and the humidification module 100 can be sequentially arranged along the air flow direction, wherein the air flow introduced by the fresh air module 300 can first flow through the purification module 200 and then flow through the humidification module 100, and at least one of humidification and purification can be realized according to the type selection and opening control of the purification module 200 and the humidification module 100.
[0261] Exemplarily, the purification module 200 is located above the fresh air module 300, and the humidification module 100 is located above the purification module 200, and the fresh air module 300 comprises a centrifugal fan, and the air outlet of the centrifugal fan is upward, directly sending the air flow upward into the purification module 200 and the fresh air module 300.
[0262] This design makes the air flow sent upward by the centrifugal fan flow through the purification module 200 and the humidification module 100 in sequence, which not only saves space but also improves space utilization, so that the whole system is more suitable for installation in limited space, such as home, office and the like. The centrifugal fan has the characteristics of large air volume and high air pressure, and can quickly blow the air flow to the purification module 200 and the wet film assembly 4, which is beneficial to overcome the resistance of the purification module 200 and the wet film assembly 4, and improve the air treatment efficiency.
[0263] Referring to Figure 52 and Figure 53 According to the air conditioner 10000 of the third aspect of the present application, the air conditioner 10000 comprises the humidification module 100 according to the first aspect of the present application or the air treatment component 1000 according to the second aspect of the present application.
[0264] That is, the air conditioner 10000 can comprise the air treatment component 1000 in the above form, or can not comprise the air treatment component 1000 in the above form, but separately comprises the humidification module 100. Exemplarily, the fresh air module 300 and the humidification module 100 can also be directly matched, and the purification module 200 is omitted.
[0265] Therefore, by adopting the above humidification module 100 or air treatment component 1000, the overall structural compactness of the air conditioner 10000 can be improved.
[0266] Exemplarily, when the air conditioner 10000 comprises the air treatment component 1000, the air conditioner 10000 can also simultaneously comprise the ventilation and heat exchange component 2000, and the ventilation and heat exchange component 2000 can comprise a fan and a heat exchanger. When the ventilation and heat exchange component 2000 works, the fan introduces indoor air from the air conditioner inlet, and blows the introduced air back to the indoor after heat exchange with the heat exchanger, thereby playing a role of indoor temperature regulation.
[0267] The type of the air conditioner 10000 is not limited, for example, can be an all-in-one air conditioner (such as a kitchen air conditioner, a mobile air conditioner, a window air conditioner, etc.) or a split air conditioner (such as a split hanging machine, a split cabinet machine, etc.), and when the type of the air conditioner 10000 is determined, the relative positions of the air handling component 1000 and the ventilation and heat exchange component 2000 can be known. For example, when the air conditioner 10000 is a cabinet machine, the ventilation and heat exchange component 2000 can be located above the air handling component 1000.
[0268] Other components of the air conditioner 10000 according to the embodiments of the present application, such as air duct components and panel components, etc., and operations are known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0269] Next, the humidifying module 100 according to some embodiments of the present application will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0270] Reference Figure 15 and Figure 16 The humidifying module 100 includes a water tray 1, an air duct frame 2, a water tank 3, a wet film assembly 4, a valve switch 5, and a float switch 6.
[0271] In conjunction with Figure 17 , Figure 18 and Figure 19 The water tray 1 includes a second water tray portion 12, which defines a second water pool 121 with an open top, and the air duct frame 2 is arranged above the water tray 1. The air duct frame 2 has a humidifying air duct 211 formed therein, at least part of the wet film assembly 4 is located in the humidifying air duct 211, and the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 extends into the second water pool 121 to absorb water from the second water pool 121.
[0272] In conjunction with Figure 19 The air duct frame 2 includes a first frame wall 2212 and a second frame wall 231 that participate in defining the humidifying air duct 211. The first frame wall 2212 is located on the side of the second frame wall 231 away from the second water pool 121, and the first frame wall 2212 has an insertion opening 22121 formed therein. The wet film assembly 4 is inserted into the humidifying air duct 211 by being inclined downward from the insertion opening 22121 toward the lower end of the second frame wall 231.
[0273] Exemplarily, in conjunction with Figure 19 and Figure 20, the second water tray part 12 is located at the rear part of the water tray 1, the air duct frame 2 comprises a first frame 22 and a second frame 23 which are assembled and connected, the first frame 22 is located at the front side of the second frame 23, the first frame 22 comprises a first frame wall 2212, the second frame 23 comprises a second frame wall 231, the first frame wall 2212 defines the front wall surface of the humidifying air duct 211, and the second frame wall 231 defines the rear wall surface of the humidifying air duct 211. The length direction of the insertion opening 22121 which is opened on the first frame wall 2212 extends along the left-right direction, the wet film assembly 4 is inserted into the rear lower direction by the insertion opening 22121, so that the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 extends into the second water pool 121 of the rear part of the water tray 1.
[0274] In combination Figure 21 , the rear side of the first frame wall 2212 has an installation slide rail 223 which extends downwardly and obliquely, the installation slide rail 223 is two and is respectively located at the left and right sides of the insertion opening 22121, after the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 is inserted from the insertion opening 22121, the left and right ends of the wet film assembly 4 respectively slide downwardly along the installation slide rail 223, so that the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 is conveniently and smoothly slid to the second water pool 121.
[0275] In combination Figure 19 and Figure 22 , the second water tray part 12 comprises a support wall 122 which participates in defining the front wall of the second water pool 121 and extends obliquely from the bottom wall of the second water pool 121 to the front upper direction, the upper end of the support wall 122 is lower than the lower end of the installation slide rail 223, and the extension direction of the support wall 122 is generally parallel to the extension direction of the installation slide rail 223, after the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 is away from the installation slide rail 223, the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 is then slid onto the support wall 122 and continues to slide to the bottom of the second water pool 121 along the support wall 122.
[0276] In combination Figure 22 and Figure 23 , the support wall 122 is composed of a wall body 1221 and an upper wall part 1222 which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top, the vertical height of the wall body 1221 is greater than the vertical height of the upper wall part 1222, the upper wall part 1222 is composed of a first wall part 12221 and a second wall part 12222 which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top, the first wall part 12221 is bent to the direction away from the wet film assembly 4 with the angle to the horizontal plane being reduced relative to the wall body 1221, and the second wall part 12222 is bent to the direction close to the wet film assembly 4 with the angle to the horizontal plane being increased relative to the first wall part 12221, so that the upper end of the support wall 122 presents a three-fold form.
[0277] In combination Figure 22 and Figure 23, the wet film assembly 4 slides to the support wall 122 from the upper end of the support wall 122, so the upper end of the support wall 122 is the installation entrance, in order to prevent the installation entrance of the support wall 122 from being deformed to arch upward and impact the wet film assembly 4 sliding thereto, the upper end of the support wall 122 is designed in a three-fold form, which can effectively strengthen the strength of the upper end of the support wall 122, prevent it from being deformed to arch upward, and thus enable the wet film assembly 4 to smoothly slide to the support wall 122.
[0278] In combination Figure 22 and Figure 23 , the upper end of the support wall 122 is provided with a reinforcing rib 12223 at the position of the two-folded edge, the reinforcing rib 12223 is multiple and arranged in the left-right direction, the reinforcing rib 12223 is arranged on the side of the first wall portion 12221 and the second wall portion 12222 facing the wet film assembly 4 and connected with the first wall portion 12221 and the second wall portion 12222 respectively, so as to further strengthen the strength of the upper end of the support wall 122 and prevent it from being deformed to arch upward.
[0279] In combination Figure 22 and Figure 23 , the side surface of the upper end of the support wall 122 facing the wet film assembly 4 is formed as a guide slope 122221, the guide slope 122221 extends obliquely from bottom to top in a direction away from the wet film assembly 4, so that the installation entrance position of the upper end of the support wall 122 is formed in a flared form, which is beneficial to enable the wet film assembly 4 to smoothly slide to the support wall 122 and further prevent the upper end of the support wall 122 from impacting the wet film assembly 4 sliding thereto.
[0280] In combination Figure 23 , the second water tray portion 12 includes an enclosing wall 123, the enclosing wall 123 defines the back wall of the second water pool 121 and extends upward from the bottom wall of the second water pool 121. The second frame wall 231 includes a third wall portion 2313, a yielding slope wall 2312 and a fourth wall portion 2314, the third wall portion 2313 extends in the up-down direction, the yielding slope wall 2312 extends obliquely from the lower end of the third wall portion 2313 toward the back lower side, the fourth wall portion 2314 decreases the included angle with the horizontal plane from the lower end of the yielding slope wall 2312 and continues to extend obliquely toward the back lower side and extends above the enclosing wall 123. The connecting position of the yielding slope wall 2312 and the fourth wall portion 2314 is the closest part 2311 of the second frame wall 231 to the support wall 122.
[0281] In the embodiment, the inclination angle X2 of the yielding inclined wall 2312 relative to the horizontal plane is greater than the inclination angle X3 of the fourth wall portion 2314 relative to the horizontal plane, i.e. the installation entrance of the second frame wall 231 is in the form of an open mouth at the position closest to the support wall 122, thereby effectively preventing the problem of interference and collision between the wet membrane assembly 4 and the second frame wall 231 during installation. In an exemplary embodiment, X2-X3>10°, thereby more effectively preventing the problem of interference and collision between the wet membrane assembly 4 and the second frame wall 231 during installation.
[0282] In addition, since the close portion 2311 of the second frame wall 231 is higher than the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4 and is located on the side of the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4 close to the insertion entrance 22121, the close portion 2311 of the second frame wall 231 can limit the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4, so that the lower end will not be raised when the wet membrane assembly 4 is subjected to the upward air flow force, thereby stably playing a humidifying role.
[0283] In combination with Figure 17 and Figure 23 , the second water tray portion 12 comprises a support wall 122, a surrounding wall 123, and a bottom wall 124, the length direction of the bottom wall 124 extends along the left-right direction and defines the bottom wall of the second water pool 121, the support wall 122 extends upward from the front end of the bottom wall 124, the length direction of the support wall 122 extends along the left-right direction and participates in defining the front wall of the second water pool 121, and the surrounding wall 123 extends upward from the rear end of the bottom wall 124, the length direction of the surrounding wall 123 extends along the left-right direction and defines the rear wall of the second water pool 121.
[0284] In combination with Figure 17 and Figure 23 , the portion of the bottom wall 124 close to the support wall 122 is concave downward so that the bottom wall of the second water pool 121 forms a sunken groove 1241 at this position, the length direction of the sunken groove 1241 extends along the left-right direction so that the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4 can extend into the sunken groove 1241, and the sunken groove 1241 is the lowest position of the bottom wall of the second water pool 121, so that the water in the second water pool 121 can all flow into the sunken groove 1241, thereby extending the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4 into the sunken groove 1241, and the wet membrane assembly 4 can completely absorb the water in the second water pool 121, thereby improving the problem of bacteria breeding due to the presence of unabsorbed water in the second water pool 121.
[0285] In combination with Figure 17 and Figure 23 , in an exemplary embodiment, the bottom wall of the sunken groove 1241 is upwardly curved toward the front end and the rear end, so that the cross section of the sunken groove 1241 is close to U-shaped, thereby enabling the water on the front side and the rear side of the sunken groove 1241 to smoothly flow into the sunken groove 1241. In an exemplary embodiment, the depth of the sunken groove 1241 can be greater than 3mm.
[0286] In combination Figure 17 and Figure 23 , the second water pool 121 is further provided with a support rib 125, which is located at one side of the sunken groove 1241 close to the surrounding wall 123, and supports the wet membrane assembly 4 so as to separate the wet membrane assembly 4 from the surrounding wall 123, and supports the wet membrane assembly 4 so that the lower end of the wet membrane assembly 4 sliding into the second water pool 121 can enter the sunken groove 1241 and stably stay in the sunken groove 1241.
[0287] Exemplarily, the support rib 125 can be multiple and arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, so as to improve the support reliability and stability of the wet membrane assembly 4. Exemplarily, the support rib 125 can be connected with the surrounding wall 123 and the bottom wall 124 respectively, so as to realize stable support and increase the structural stability and reliability of the second water pool part 12.
[0288] In combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 , exemplarily, the wet membrane assembly 4 can include a wet membrane 41 and a net rack 42, and the wet membrane 41 is installed in the net rack 42.
[0289] Exemplarily, the two sides of the wet membrane 41 in the thickness direction are respectively a side toward the support wall 122 (denoted as the lower side of the wet membrane 41) and a side toward the second frame wall 231 (denoted as the upper side of the wet membrane 41), the upper end of the wet membrane 41 is an end toward the insertion port 22121, the lower end of the wet membrane 41 is an end toward the second water pool 121, and the bottom of the net rack 42 is at the lower end of the wet membrane 41.
[0290] In combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 , exemplarily, the bottom of the net rack 42 is open, and the bottom of the wet membrane 41 installed in the net rack 42 is exposed by the open part of the bottom of the net rack 42, so as to increase the water absorption area of the lower part of the wet membrane 41, thereby improving the water absorption efficiency of the wet membrane 41 from the second water pool 121 and increasing the humidification amount of the wet membrane assembly 4.
[0291] In combination Figure 24 , the wet membrane 41 can be upwardly installed in the net rack 42 from the open part of the bottom of the net rack 42 before the wet membrane assembly 4 is installed in the air duct frame 2. When the wet membrane 41 is installed in this way, exemplarily, a protruding structure 4212 can be arranged inside the net rack 42, and the protruding structure 4212 is in interference fit with the wet membrane 41, so as to prevent the wet membrane 41 from being loosened downwardly from the open part of the bottom of the net rack 42. Exemplarily, the net rack 42 can include net rack side plates 4213 located at the left and right sides of the wet membrane 41, and the protruding structure 4212 can be arranged at the side of the net rack side plate 4213 toward the wet membrane 41 and at the central position in the length direction of the net rack side plate 4213.
[0292] In combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 For example, in combination and
[0293] For example, in combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 The grid frame 42 can include two grid frame supports 4214, each of which is located on one side in the thickness direction of the wet membrane 41 and is connected to the grid frame side plates 4213 on the left and right sides, thereby improving the support reliability of the wet membrane 41. The water inlet 4211 is formed on the grid frame support 4214 on the side of the wet membrane 41 facing the support wall 122. It can be understood that the two sides in the thickness direction of the wet membrane 41 are the wet membrane air inlet side and the wet membrane air outlet side, respectively, and in order to increase the contact area of the airflow with the wet membrane 41, a plurality of hollow regions can be provided on each grid frame support 4214 to increase the contact area of the airflow with the wet membrane 41.
[0294] In combination Figure 24 and Figure 25 For example, the grid frame 42 can include a grid frame end plate 422 and a grid frame outer frame 421, and the wet membrane 41 is arranged in the grid frame outer frame 421. Both of them are inserted into the humidifying air duct 211 through the insertion port 22121. For example, the grid frame outer frame 421 can include the grid frame supports 4214 and the grid frame side plates 4213 described above.
[0295] In combination Figure 24 and Figure 25 For example, the grid frame end plate 422 is arranged at the upper end of the grid frame outer frame 421 and is located at one end of the wet membrane 41 facing the insertion port 22121. The front surface of the first frame wall 2212 has a sunken table 22122 recessed rearward and a handhold groove 22123. The recessed depth of the handhold groove 22123 is greater than the recessed depth of the sunken table 22122. The sunken table 22122 is arranged around the insertion port 22121 and is used to accommodate the edge of the grid frame end plate 422. The handhold grooves 22123 are distributed on both sides of the width of the insertion port 22121. Part of the handhold grooves 22123 falls within the range of the sunken table 22122, and the remaining part of the handhold grooves 22123 extends toward the direction away from the insertion port 22121 to exceed the coverage range of the grid frame end plate 422. In this way, when it is necessary to take out the wet membrane assembly 4 from the air duct frame body 2, the edge of the grid frame end plate 422 can be held through the handhold grooves 22123, so that the wet membrane assembly 4 can be pulled out from the air duct frame body 2.
[0296] In combination Figure 19 andFigure 20 For example, the bottom of the air duct frame 2 is open to form an air inlet of the humidification air duct 211. When the wet film assembly 4 is inserted into the humidification air duct 211 by the insertion port 22121 and is inclined downward, the lower end of the wet film assembly 4 extends into the second water pool 121, and the air flow entering the humidification air duct 211 from bottom to top can be in contact with the wet film assembly 4 in a larger range, thereby increasing the humidification amount. That is, the wet film assembly 4 is placed in an inclined manner, which can increase the air passing area of the wet film assembly 4 and improve the humidification amount.
[0297] In combination Figure 26 The humidification air duct 211 includes a side bypass flow channel 2111 on at least one side of the left and right sides of the wet film assembly 4. For simplicity of description, the side bypass flow channels 2111 are provided on the left and right sides of the wet film assembly 4. In this way, part of the air flow entering the humidification air duct 211 from bottom to top can be humidified by passing through the wet film assembly 4 upward, and the remaining part can bypass the wet film assembly 4 from the left and right side bypass flow channels 2111 to the air outlet 24 of the air duct frame 2, thereby reducing the air resistance and noise while ensuring the humidification amount.
[0298] For example, when the left and right sides of the wet film assembly 4 are respectively provided with the mounting slide rails 223, the left mounting slide rail 223 and the left side wall of the air duct frame 2 form the side bypass flow channel 2111 on the left side of the wet film assembly 4, and the right mounting slide rail 223 and the right side wall of the air duct frame 2 form the side bypass flow channel 2111 on the right side of the wet film assembly 4.
[0299] For example, in combination Figure 15 and Figure 26 The air outlet 24 of the air duct frame 2 can include a side air outlet 242. For example, the side air outlets 242 can be respectively located on the left and right sides of the air duct frame 2, so that the air flow entering the side bypass flow channels 2111 on the left and right sides of the wet film assembly 4 can flow out of the side air outlets 242 more quickly, thereby reducing the air resistance and noise. For example, the side air outlets 242 can be defined by the first frame 22 and the second frame 23.
[0300] For example, in combination Figure 15 and Figure 26 The air outlet 24 of the air duct frame 2 can include a front air outlet 241. For example, the front air outlet 241 can be located on the front upper side of the air duct frame 2, so that the air flow entering the side bypass flow channels 2111 on the left and right sides of the wet film assembly 4 can flow out of the front air outlet 241 upward and forward, thereby reducing the air resistance and noise. For example, the front air outlet 241 can be defined by the first frame 22, and the first frame 22 and the second frame 23 define an upper air outlet flow channel that communicates the front air outlet 241 and the humidification air duct 211.
[0301] For example, in combination Figure 15 andFigure 26 The air outlet 24 of the air duct frame 2 can include a side air outlet 242 and a front air outlet 241, and at least one of the side air outlet 242 and the front air outlet 241 can be switched on. The specific embodiments of the front air outlet 241 and the side air outlet 242 can be referred to the description above, and will not be repeated here.
[0302] When the bottom of the air duct frame 2 is open to form the air inlet of the humidifying air duct 211, the air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 8 The water tank 1 can be formed with a ventilation hole 15 penetrating in the up-down direction, and the ventilation hole 15 is in communication with the humidifying air duct 211. The airflow passing through the ventilation hole 15 from bottom to top can enter the humidifying air duct 211 upward.
[0303] The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 22 The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 26 When the left and right sides of the wet membrane assembly 4 respectively have side bypass air ducts 2111, the ventilation hole 15 can include a main air inlet area 151 located directly below the wet membrane assembly 4, and a side air inlet area 152 located directly below the side bypass air duct 2111. The left and right sides of the main air inlet area 151 each have a side air inlet area 152, so that the airflow supplied upward from the side air inlet area 152 can directly enter the side bypass air duct 2111, thereby effectively reducing the air resistance.
[0304] The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 17 The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 22 The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 23 The second water tank part 12 includes a front wall 129 for defining a front wall of the second water tank 121, and the part of the front wall 129 opposite to the wet membrane assembly 4 is inclined to form a support wall 122. The front wall 129 includes end walls 1291 located on the left and right sides of the support wall 122, and the end walls 1291 extend vertically. The support wall 122 is inclined forward relative to the end walls 1291. The support wall 122 and the end walls 1291 are connected by a connecting wall 1292 extending in the front-back direction. The side air inlet area 152 is opposite to the end walls 1291 in the front-back direction, and the main air inlet area 151 is opposite to the support wall 122 in the front-back direction. Thus, by arranging the end walls 1291 extending vertically at both ends of the front wall 129, the ventilation area of the side air inlet area 152 can be increased, and the connecting wall 1292 formed can limit the left and right movement of the wet membrane assembly 4.
[0305] The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 16 The air inlet can be formed on the left side of the water tank 1, and the air inlet can be formed on the right side of the water tank 1. Figure 17The water tank 3 is configured to inject water into the first water pool 111. The first water pool 111 is in communication with the second water pool 121. The first water pool 111 can be directly in communication with the second water pool 121 when the first water pool 111 is adjacently arranged with the second water pool 121. The first water pool 111 can be indirectly in communication with the second water pool 121 when the first water pool 111 is spaced apart from the second water pool 121, for example, through the third water pool 131 as described below. In this way, when the water tank 3 injects water into the first water pool 111, the water in the first water pool 111 flows into the second water pool 121 through the third water pool 131, and the wet film assembly 4 absorbs water through the second water pool 121.
[0306] For example, in combination with Figure 16 and Figure 17 The first water pan part 11 is located at the front of the water tray 1, the second water pan part 12 is located at the rear of the water tray 1, and the ventilation opening 15 is located between the first water pan part 11 and the second water pan part 12. The water tray 1 further comprises a first side part 13 and a second side part 14, one of which is located on the left side of the ventilation opening 15, and the other is located on the right side of the ventilation opening 15. The first side part 13 and the second side part 14 both extend in the front-rear direction and connect the same side ends of the first water pan part 11 and the second water pan part 12. At least one of the first side part 13 and the second side part 14 defines a third water pool 131 extending in the front-rear direction, the front end of the third water pool 131 is in communication with the first water pool 111, and the rear end of the third water pool 131 is in communication with the second water pool 121.
[0307] For example, the water tray 1 can be a one-piece molded part, thereby facilitating processing. For simplicity of description, the following description is given by way of example with the first side part 13 located on the right side of the ventilation opening 15, the second side part 14 located on the left side of the ventilation opening 15, and the third water pool 131 formed only on the first side part 13.
[0308] For example, in combination with Figure 22 and Figure 17The second water tray part 12 comprises a front wall 129, a surrounding wall 123, a bottom wall 124 and two side walls 1281. The bottom wall 124 extends in the length direction along the left-right direction and defines the bottom wall of the second water pool 121. The front wall 129 extends upward from the front end of the bottom wall 124 and extends in the length direction along the left-right direction and defines the front wall of the second water pool 121. The surrounding wall 123 extends upward from the rear end of the bottom wall 124 and extends in the length direction along the left-right direction and defines the rear wall of the second water pool 121. The two side walls 1281 extend upward from the left and right ends of the bottom wall 124 respectively and define the left and right side walls of the second water pool 121 respectively. The rear end of each side wall 1281 is connected with the corresponding surrounding wall 123. The left side wall 1281 is connected with the left end of the front wall 129, and the right side wall 1281 is spaced apart from the right end of the front wall 129 to define a through port connecting the second water pool 121 and the third water pool 131.
[0309] In combination with Figure 27 and Figure 28 , the first side part 13 comprises a left outer plate 134 and a right inner plate 135 arranged in the left-right direction. The third water pool 131 is formed between the left outer plate 134 and the right inner plate 135. The top end of the left outer plate 134 is bent to form a plate flange 1341 facing away from the right inner plate 135. The plate flange 1341 is concave downward to form an overflow port 132 above the concave part. When the water level in the third water pool 131 exceeds the lower edge of the overflow port 132, the water can overflow from the overflow port 132.
[0310] It can be understood that the first water pool 111, the second water pool 121 and the third water pool 131 are connected to form a communicating vessel, and the water levels are consistent. In this way, when the water level in the water tray 1 exceeds the overflow port 132, the water can flow out through the overflow port 132, for example, when the water tank 3 fails due to air leakage, the overflow protection can be realized.
[0311] In combination with Figure 27 and Figure 28 , the overflow port 132 has a teapot-shaped design. The plate flange 1341 is inclined upward along the direction from the right inner plate 135 to the left outer plate 134 at the position defining the overflow port 132, and a vertical drainage gap 1321 is arranged at the edge position away from the right inner plate 135. In this way, the water flowing to the overflow port 132 can break and flow out at the drainage gap 1321, so that the problem of not flowing out under the action of tension can be avoided.
[0312] In an example, the height of the concave part of the plate flange 1341 can be controlled to be greater than 5mm.
[0313] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 27 and Figure 28 , the outer side plate 134 has two water draining ribs 136 protruding towards the direction away from the inner side plate 135, the two water draining ribs 136 are located at the two sides below the overflow port 132, and a water guide groove 1361 extending along the up-down direction is formed between the two water draining ribs 136, the water overflowing from the overflow port 132 can flow downwards through the water guide groove 1361, the water guide groove 1361 includes an upper groove segment 13611 and a lower groove segment 13612, the lower groove segment 13612 is located below the upper groove segment 13611, and the width of the upper groove segment 13611 is greater than that of the lower groove segment 13612, so that the water guide groove 1361 is formed in the form of a lower neck, thereby more smoothly guiding the water overflowing from the overflow port 132 to the water collecting position below.
[0314] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 19 , Figure 20 and Figure 25 , the first frame body 22 is an integrally formed member and includes a mounting portion 221 and an air outlet portion 222, the air outlet portion 222 is located above the mounting portion 221, the air outlet portion 222 defines a front air outlet 241 open towards the front, the mounting portion 221 defines a mounting cavity 2211 for receiving the water tank 3 and open towards the front, the mounting portion 221 includes a first frame wall 2212 and side plates 2213 located at the left and right sides of the first frame wall 2212, the mounting cavity 2211 is located at the front side of the first frame wall 2212, and the humidifying air duct 211 is located at the rear side of the first frame wall 2212, the first frame wall 2212 is provided with an insertion opening 22121, and the rear side of the first frame wall 2212 protrudes a mounting slide rail 223, the wet membrane assembly 4 is inserted through the insertion opening 22121 and slides into the humidifying air duct 211 along the mounting slide rail 223. The mounting portion 221 is located above the first water pool 111, and the bottom of the mounting portion 221 is formed with an open hole 2214 for communicating the first water pool 111 and the mounting cavity 2211, and the bottom of the water tank 3 has a water outlet portion 314, which passes through the open hole 2214 downwards and extends into the first water pool 111 for water injection to the first water pool 111. In this way, the first frame body 22 adopts an integrated design, integrates the functions of the front air outlet 241, the mounting of the water tank 3, and the mounting of the wet membrane assembly 4, improves the product assembly efficiency, and at the same time improves the product strength.
[0315] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 25The first frame body 22 of the integrated design further integrates a guide rib 224. The side of each side plate 2213 facing the mounting cavity 2211 is provided with a guide rib 224 extending in the front-rear direction. The guide ribs 224 are multiple and are arranged in the up-down direction. The front end of the guide rib 224 has a guide inclined surface inclined away from the mounting cavity 2211. The arrangement of the guide rib 224 enables the water tank 3 to smoothly enter the mounting cavity 2211, reduces assembly friction, and prevents the water tank 3 from shaking left and right and improves the stability and reliability of the water tank 3 in injecting water into the first pool 111.
[0316] For example, in combination with Figure 16 The water tank 3 comprises a water outlet valve 32 mounted on the water outlet portion 314. The water outlet valve 32 extends into the first pool 111 together with the water outlet portion 314. The water outlet valve 32 is opened by the valve switch 5 mounted on the water tray 1. After the water outlet valve 32 is opened, the water tank 3 can inject water into the first pool 111. In combination with Figure 25 When the water tank 3 is limited in the left-right position by the guide rib 224, the water outlet valve 32 can be stably positioned to be opened by the valve switch 5, thereby improving the stability of the water tank 3 in injecting water into the first pool 111 and improving the reliability of the humidifying module 100 in realizing the humidifying function.
[0317] For example, in combination with Figure 25 The first frame body 22 of the integrated design further integrates a mounting side ear 225. The mounting side ear 225 is used to fix the air duct frame 2 in use. For example, the mounting side ear 225 can be fixed on the rear cabinet 700 of the air conditioner 10000 by screws to realize the mounting of the air duct frame 2. For example, an operation gap 2251 can be further arranged on the mounting side ear 225 to form an operation space between the mounting side ear 225 and the rear cabinet 700. A person can hold the mounting side ear 225 by hand to take the air duct frame 2 forward from the rear cabinet 700.
[0318] Therefore, the first frame body 22 adopts an integrated design and integrates the functions of the front air outlet 241, the mounting and limiting of the water tank 3, the mounting and guiding of the wet film assembly 4, and the mounting of the first frame body 22 itself, thereby improving the product assembly efficiency and the product strength.
[0319] For example, in combination with Figure 29 and Figure 30 The bottom of the water tank 3 comprises a suspended portion 315 and a water outlet portion 314. The water outlet portion 314 protrudes downward relative to the suspended portion 315 to extend into the first pool 111. The bottom surface of the suspended portion 315 is higher than the bottom surface of the first pool 111 to form a buffer cavity 3151 between the bottom surface of the suspended portion 315 and the bottom surface of the first pool 111.
[0320] In this way, by setting the empty space (i.e. the space below the overhang 315) at the bottom of the water tank 3, when the water tank 3 is installed into the installation cavity 2211, only the water outlet 314 of the bottom of the water tank 3 extends into the first pool 111, and the overhang 315 of the bottom of the water tank 3 can be suspended above the bottom surface of the first pool 111, and the accumulated water in the first pool 111 can be squeezed into the empty space on the side of the water outlet 314, i.e. the buffer cavity 3151 below the overhang 315, thereby preventing the accumulated water in the first pool 111 from being squeezed out of the water tank 1.
[0321] Exemplarily, with reference to Figure 29 , Figure 30 , Figure 31 and Figure 32 , the bottom surface of the first pool 111 has an upward protruding positioning protrusion 1111, the bottom surface of the water outlet 314 has an upward protruding upper protruding structure 3142, the bottom of the upper protruding structure 3142 forms an upward recessed positioning recess 3143, and the water outlet 314 is sleeved on the positioning protrusion 1111 through the positioning recess 3143 to limit the horizontal movement of the water outlet 314 relative to the first pool 111. In this way, the water outlet valve 32 can be stably positioned at a position that can be opened by the valve switch 5, thereby improving the stability of the water tank 3 to inject water into the first pool 111, and improving the reliability of the humidifying module 100 to realize the humidifying function.
[0322] Exemplarily, with reference to Figure 29 , Figure 30 , Figure 31 and Figure 32 , the first pool 111 has a guide limiting structure 1112 protruding upward from the bottom surface of the first pool 111, the guide limiting structure 1112 is arranged on the side of the water outlet 314 away from the valve switch 5, and the side surface of the guide limiting structure 1112 facing the water outlet 314 is formed as a first inclined surface 11121 extending downwardly and inclined toward the direction close to the valve switch 5, and the side surface of the water outlet 314 facing the guide limiting structure 1112 is formed as a second inclined surface 3144 substantially parallel to the first inclined surface 11121, so that the guide limiting structure 1112 can guide the second inclined surface 3144 through the first inclined surface 11121, so that the water outlet 314 slides downward into the position in the first pool 111 where the valve switch 5 can cooperate, and the positioning recess 3143 can be sleeved on the positioning protrusion 1111 during the sliding process of the water outlet 314, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and reducing the difficulty of aligning the positioning recess 3143 and the positioning protrusion 1111.
[0323] Exemplarily, with reference to Figure 29 and Figure 30The water outlet valve 32 is installed on one side of the water outlet part 314 in the horizontal direction, the water tank 3 is filled with water to the first water pool 111 through the opening of the water outlet valve 32, and the valve switch 5 is arranged on one side of the water outlet valve 32 in the horizontal direction and is used to open the water outlet valve 32. In this way, the water tank 3 can be filled with water from the side, the water outlet valve 32 is arranged at the side water filling position and is used to control the water outlet, so that when the water tank 3 is taken out from the front, the space required above the water tank 3 can be effectively reduced, for example, the gap between the top surface of the installation cavity 2211 and the top surface of the water tank 3 is reduced, so that the structure compactness is improved and the space occupation is reduced.
[0324] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 29 , Figure 30 , Figure 31 and Figure 32 and Figure 33 , the valve switch 5 is arranged on the side of the water outlet valve 32 away from the water outlet part 314, for example, when the water outlet valve 32 is arranged on the right side of the water outlet part 314, the valve switch 5 can be arranged on the right side of the water outlet valve 32. In this way, when the side of the water outlet part 314 away from the water outlet valve 32 is formed with the above-mentioned overhanging part 315, the valve switch 5 will not occupy the space of the buffer cavity 3151. For example, the water outlet part 314 is arranged on the right side of the overhanging part 315, the water outlet valve 32 is arranged on the right side of the water outlet part 314, and the valve switch 5 is arranged on the right side of the water outlet valve 32, so that the buffer cavity 3151 and the valve switch 5 can be arranged on the two sides of the water outlet part 314. Meanwhile, in combination with Figure 32 , the third water pool 131 can also be arranged on the side of the water tank 1 close to the water outlet part 314 in the left-right direction, so that the third water pool 131 can be communicated with the first water pool 111 at the water filling position adjacent to the water tank 3.
[0325] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 32 and Figure 33 , the water outlet valve 32 comprises a valve seat 322, a valve core 321 and a reset spring 324, the valve seat 322 is installed on the water outlet part 314, the valve seat 322 is formed with a water outlet passage 3220, the valve core 321 is movably arranged in the valve seat 322 in the left-right direction, the reset spring 324 is arranged between the valve seat 322 and the valve core 321 and drives the valve core 321 to move in the left-right direction towards the direction of blocking the water outlet passage 3220, and the valve switch 5 drives the valve core 321 to move in the left-right direction towards the direction of opening the water outlet passage 3220 to realize the switching of the opening and closing states of the water outlet valve 32. For example, the valve switch 5 is arranged on the right side of the water outlet valve 32, the reset spring 324 drives the valve core 321 to move to the right to close the water outlet valve 32, and the valve switch 5 drives the valve core 321 to move to the left to open the water outlet valve 32.
[0326] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 32 and Figure 33The valve switch 5 comprises a motor 51 and a driving member 52, the motor 51 drives the valve core 321 to move towards the opening direction through the driving member 52, the motor 51 comprises a motor body 511 and a driving shaft 512, the driving member 52 comprises a rotating shaft 521 and a swing protrusion 522, the rotating shaft 521 extends vertically and is connected with the driving shaft 512, the swing protrusion 522 protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 521, when the driving shaft 512 drives the rotating shaft 521 to rotate, the swing protrusion 522 pushes the valve core 321 to move.
[0327] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 33 The side surface of the valve core 321 towards the valve switch 5 is a guide surface part 3211a1 and a center surface part 3211a2, the center surface part 3211a2 is a vertical plane, the guide surface part 3211a1 is a tapered platform and is arranged around the center surface part 3211a2, when the water tank 3 is loaded, it can be smoothly slid down through the guide surface part 3211a1, preventing interference and jamming with the swing protrusion 522, the center surface part 3211a2 reliably contacts and bears stress with the swing protrusion 522.
[0328] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 32 and Figure 33 The first water disc part 11 comprises a second boss 11531 and a third boss 11541, the second boss 11531 is located in the first pool 111, the second boss 11531 is provided with a rotating hole 115310, the third boss 11541 is suspended above the second boss 11531, the third boss 11541 is provided with a clearance 115410 at the position corresponding to the second boss 11531, the motor body 511 is installed on the top of the third boss 11541, the driving shaft 512 is extended from the lower end of the motor body 511 and is arranged corresponding to the clearance 115410, the rotating shaft 521 is arranged corresponding to the clearance 115410, the lower end of the rotating shaft 521 is pivotally connected with the rotating hole 115310, and the upper end of the rotating shaft 521 is in transmission cooperation with the driving shaft 512.
[0329] Therefore, by arranging the motor body 511 on the third boss 11541, the motor body 511 can prevent moisture. By arranging the rotating shaft 521 on the second boss 11531, it is beneficial to improve the height of the swing protrusion 522 while shortening the height of the rotating shaft 521, the shortening of the height of the rotating shaft 521 can improve the strength of the driving member 52, the height of the swing protrusion 522 is improved, so that the horizontally moving valve core 321 does not need to approach the bottom of the valve seat 322, so that the valve seat 322 has a part lower than the valve core 321 connected with the water outlet part 314, meeting the connection requirement of the valve seat 322 and the water outlet part 314.
[0330] Exemplarily, the bottom surface of the motor body 511 can be higher than the overflow port 132, and the height difference between the bottom surface of the motor body 511 and the bottom surface of the overflow port 132 is greater than 10 mm, and the height of the overflow port 132 is greater than 5 mm, so that the damage of the motor body 511 caused by the water in the water tank 1 can be more effectively avoided when the water tank 1 is full of water.
[0331] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 32 and Figure 34 , the air duct frame 2 is moved backward relative to the water tank 1 to realize installation, in order to prevent the air duct frame 2 from impacting the motor 51 during installation, the water tank 1 is provided with a collision stop plate 116 in the oblique front of the motor 51, the collision stop plate 116 can protrude on the third boss 11541, and the protruding height is greater than half the height of the motor body 511, for example, it can be as high as the motor body 511, so that when the air duct frame 2 is moved backward relative to the water tank 1 to realize installation, the surrounding plate at the lower end of the air duct frame 2 will not impact the motor 51, thereby protecting the motor 51.
[0332] For example, when the motor 51 is arranged at the right front corner of the water tank 1, the collision stop plate 116 is arranged at the right front of the motor 51 and is inclined backward along the direction from left to right, so that when the air duct frame 2 is moved backward relative to the water tank 1, the front wall and the right wall of the surrounding plate at the lower end of the air duct frame 2 will not impact the motor 51, thereby protecting the motor 51.
[0333] In addition, in combination with Figure 32 and Figure 34 , a bottom-opened motor avoidance space 226 can be arranged at the lower end of the air duct frame 2 corresponding to the motor 51, the length of the motor avoidance space 226 in the front-rear direction is greater than 100 mm, and the rear end of the motor avoidance space 226 can be lower than the top surface of the motor 51, so as to improve the sealing effect after installation. At this time, when the air duct frame 2 needs to be installed, the air duct frame 2 can be slightly lifted, so that the rear end of the motor avoidance space 226 is higher than the top surface of the motor 51, and then the air duct frame 2 is lowered, so that the motor 51 can fall into the motor avoidance space 226. Thereafter, the air duct frame 2 can be pushed backward, and the motor 51 can reach the front end of the motor avoidance space 226. Under the protection of the collision stop plate 116, the front surrounding plate and the side surrounding plate of the motor avoidance space 226 will not impact the motor 51.
[0334] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 16 , the float switch 6 and the valve switch 5 are respectively arranged at the left and right ends of the first water pool 111, for example, the float switch 6 is arranged at the left end of the first water pool 111, and the valve switch 5 is arranged at the right end of the first water pool 111. In combination with Figure 35 and Figure 36The float switch 6 can include a float member 61 located in the first water tank 111 and a Hall switch member 62 located outside the first water tank 111. The float member 61 is provided with a magnet 611 on a side facing the Hall switch member 62, and the Hall switch member 62 is provided with a chip 621 on a side facing the float member 61. The magnet 611 and the chip 621 are oppositely arranged and have a spacing of less than 5 mm, so as to improve the sensitivity of the Hall switch member 62.
[0335] For example, in combination with Figure 35 , Figure 36 and Figure 37 , the water tank 1 includes a side plate 161 separating the float member 61 and the Hall switch member 62.

The outer mounting seat 171 includes a stop portion 1712 extending in the front-rear direction. The sliding groove 1711 is formed between the stop portion 1712 and the side plate 161. The stop portion 1712 prevents the Hall switch member 62 from moving in a direction from the inner side of the side plate 161 to the outer side thereof.
[0336] For example, in combination with Figure 35 , Figure 36 and Figure 37 , the outer mounting seat 171 includes a first limiting structure 1714 arranged in the sliding groove 1711. The Hall switch member 62 has a second limiting structure 622 limitingly matched with the first limiting structure 1714.

The second limiting structure 622 is formed as a strip-shaped groove extending in the front-rear direction and is arranged in the strip-shaped groove to slide in the front-rear direction. Thus, the problem of reverse installation of the Hall switch member 62 can be avoided.
[0337] For example, in combination with Figure 35 , Figure 36 and Figure 37The outer mounting seat 171 is provided with an elastic limiting structure 1715 at the slot 17110, which abuts against the Hall switch piece 62 to hinder the Hall switch piece 62 from exiting the sliding slot 1711 forward. The elastic limiting structure 1715 is formed as an elastic cantilever, the front end of which is a fixed end and is fixed at the left end of the slot 17110, and the rear end is a free end and is inclined toward the right rear and abuts against the front end face of the Hall switch piece 62. In this way, during the process of installing the Hall switch piece 62 backward into the sliding slot 1711, the elastic cantilever can be deformed to make the free end swing leftward, and when the Hall switch piece 62 is installed in place, the elastic cantilever is restored to abut against the front end face of the Hall switch piece 62. In order to facilitate the disassembly of the Hall switch piece 62, the size of the elastic cantilever abutting against the front end face from left to right is 1.5mm-2.5mm.

The condensate water formed on the outer surface of the second frame wall 231 (i.e. the surface away from the humidifying air duct 211) can be drained into the second water pool 121, so that the anti-condensation sponge attached to the outer surface of the second frame wall 231 can be cancelled, and the production efficiency is improved.
[0341] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 41 and Figure 42The upper end of the enclosing wall 123 is provided with a rearwardly extending upper flange portion 1262, and the upper flange portion 1262 is formed with downwardly recessed drainage grooves 12621, the bottom walls of the drainage grooves 12621 are downwardly inclined toward the second sink 121, and the drainage grooves 12621 are multiple and are arranged in the left-right direction. The second frame wall 231 includes a third wall portion 2313 and a downwardly inclined portion 2315, the third wall portion 2313 is arranged at the front of the second sink 121 and extends in the vertical direction, and the downwardly inclined portion 2315 is inclinedly extended from the lower end of the third wall portion 2313 toward the rear and downward, and the lower end of the downwardly inclined portion 2315 includes a drainage flange portion 23141 extending above the upper flange portion 1262, the drainage flange portion 23141 is formed with vertically penetrating drainage holes 23142, and the drainage holes 23142 are multiple and are arranged in the left-right direction. The drainage holes 23142 are arranged directly above the drainage grooves 12621, and the multiple drainage holes 23142 are arranged one-to-one with the multiple drainage grooves 12621. The outer surface of the downwardly inclined portion 2315 is further provided with flow guide ribs 2316, the flow guide ribs 2316 are multiple and are arranged in the left-right direction, drainage flow channels 2317 are formed between adjacent flow guide ribs 2316, and the drainage holes 23142 are multiple and are arranged one-to-one with the multiple drainage flow channels 2317. The upper flange portion 1262 has upwardly extending convex rib portions 1263, and the convex rib portions 1263 are arranged at the rear side of the drainage flange portion 23141.
