Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dehumidification technology, and in particular to a dehumidifier. Background Technology

[0002] A dehumidifier is a cooling machine that removes moisture from the air to reduce humidity. Indoor air enters the dehumidifier through a fan, first passing through the evaporator. Due to the temperature difference between the air and the evaporator surface, water vapor in the air condenses on the evaporator surface and drips into a drip tray. The air, now with reduced humidity, is then heated by the condenser and discharged from the dehumidifier through the air duct. This cycle repeats to achieve indoor dehumidification. During air circulation, the filter inside the dehumidifier gradually absorbs dust, hair, and other debris from the air, clogging the air duct, reducing heat exchange efficiency, and contaminating the air discharged from the dehumidifier. Some dehumidifiers have filters fixed to the air outlet, requiring disassembly and cleaning, which is time-consuming and laborious. Utility Model Content

[0047] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of a first filter and a second filter according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, and refer to Figures 2 to 8 This utility model provides a dehumidifier 100, including a housing 10, a partition 40, and a first filter 310. The housing has a first space 170 and a second space 180. The housing 10 has a first air inlet 210 and a first opening 240. The first space 170 communicates with the outside through the first air inlet 210, and the second space 180 communicates with the outside through the first opening 240. The first space 170 is located on one side of the second space 180. The partition 40 is disposed inside the housing 10 and is located on one side of the first air inlet 210. A connecting opening 410 is provided through the partition 40, connecting the first air inlet 210 and the second space 180. The first filter 310 is removably disposed at the first air inlet 210 through the connecting opening 410.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first filter 310 is slidable within the connecting port 410, allowing it to be pulled out and installed at the first air inlet 210. The second space 180 communicates with the outside through the first opening 240, allowing a user's hand to enter the second space 180 through the first opening 240 and pull or push the first filter 310 within the second space 180. When removing the first filter 310, pulling it out within the second space 180 causes it to slide in the connecting port 410 in a first direction, thereby removing it from the first air inlet 210. When installing the first filter 310, pushing it within the second space 180 causes it to slide in the connecting port 410 in the opposite direction to the first direction, thereby installing it at the first air inlet 210. When disassembling or installing the first filter 310, it is not necessary to remove the housing 10 of the dehumidifier 100, making the installation and removal of the first filter 310 more convenient and easier to clean. This ensures cleaner air inside the dehumidifier 100, allowing it to blow cleaner air out and preventing users from inhaling dust that could harm their health. Furthermore, the partition 40 prevents the connection port 410 from being located on the surface of the dehumidifier 100, improving its aesthetic appearance.

[0049] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second space 180 is located below the first space 170, and the first air inlet 210 and the first opening 240 are located on the same side wall of the housing 10. The dehumidifier 100 also includes a drawer-type water tank 810, which is removably disposed within the second space 180.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first air inlet 210 is located directly above the first opening 240, and the connecting port 410 is located between the first air inlet 210 and the first opening 240. A drawer-type water tank 810 is disposed within the second space 180. When disassembling the first filter 310, the drawer-type water tank 810 is pulled out of the second space 180, and then the first filter 310 is pulled downwards from the connecting port 410. Since the drawer-type water tank 810 can be pulled out of the second space 180, the opening of the second space 180 is opened, allowing the first filter 310 to be pulled out or pushed outwards from the connecting port 410, thus achieving the disassembly or installation of the first filter 310. The disassembly and installation of the first filter 310 is simple, facilitating filter cleaning and allowing the dehumidifier 100 to blow out relatively clean air, preventing users from inhaling dust and affecting their health. Furthermore, by taking into account the location of the drawer-type water tank 810, the space inside the dehumidifier 100 is made reasonable use, thereby reducing the volume of the dehumidifier 100 and thus reducing its cost.

[0051] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first filter screen 310 is provided with a mounting hole 311, and a mounting piece 312 is connected to the inner wall of one side of the mounting hole 311. The mounting piece 312 is elastic, and the other end of the mounting piece 312 is connected to a card 313. The card 313 is horizontally positioned, and the lower surface of the card 313 abuts against the partition 40.

[0052] In this embodiment, a card 313 is provided on the first filter screen 310. When installing the first filter screen 310, it is pushed upwards, and the first filter screen 310 slides upwards along the connecting opening 410. During sliding, the card 313 is pressed against the wall of the connecting opening 410, causing the mounting piece 312 to deform, allowing the mounting piece 312 and the mounting pieces 312 connected thereto to pass through the connecting opening 410. Afterwards, the card 313 is no longer pressed against the wall of the connecting opening 410, and the mounting piece 312 and the mounting pieces 312 connected thereto return to their original positions. At this time, the lower surface of the card 313 abuts against the partition 40. The first filter screen 310 is fixed by the abutment between the lower surface of the card 313 and the partition 40. The installation and fixing structure of the first filter screen 310 is simple, and the installation and fixing of the first filter screen 310 is relatively convenient.

[0053] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, a baffle 314 is provided at the lower end of the first filter screen 310. The baffle 314 is perpendicular to the first filter screen 310 and is located on the lower side of the partition 40.

[0054] In this embodiment, the lower end of the first filter screen 310 has a baffle 314. When disassembling the first filter screen 310, the user pulls the baffle 314 downwards, thereby pulling the first filter screen 310 down from the first air inlet 210, thus completing the disassembly of the first filter screen 310. When installing the first filter screen 310, the user simply pushes the baffle 314 upwards. The baffle 314 facilitates the disassembly and installation of the first filter screen 310.

[0055] In some other embodiments of this utility model, the baffle 314 and the first filter screen 310 are arranged at an angle.

[0056] In this embodiment, when the baffle 314 and the first filter screen 310 are inclined, the user can also move the first filter screen 310 by the inclined baffle 314, thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the first filter screen 310.

[0057] In some other embodiments of this utility model, the lower end of the first filter screen 310 is provided with a groove with an opening facing the front or rear side.

[0058] In this embodiment, a groove is provided at the lower end of the first filter screen 310, which allows the first filter screen 310 to be moved by pulling the groove, facilitating the disassembly and installation of the first filter screen 310.

[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a second air inlet 220, a second filter 320, and a second opening 250 are provided. The second air inlet 220 and the second opening 250 are located on the same side wall of the housing 10, while the second air inlet 220 and the first air inlet 210 are located on two different side walls of the housing 10. The second filter 320 is removably mounted at the second air inlet 220 via the second opening 250.

[0060] In this embodiment, the housing 10 has a second air inlet 220 and a second opening 250. The second filter 320 is removably mounted at the second air inlet 220 through the second opening 250. To remove the second filter 320, it is pulled outward from the second opening 250. To install the second filter 320, it is pushed inward from the second opening 250. Because the second filter 320 can be pulled outward or pushed inward through the second opening 250, it is not necessary to remove the housing 10 of the dehumidifier 100 when removing or installing the second filter 320. This makes the installation and removal of the second filter 320 more convenient, facilitates cleaning of the filter, and ensures cleaner air inside the dehumidifier 100. Consequently, the dehumidifier 100 blows out cleaner air, preventing users from inhaling dust and affecting their health.

[0061] Furthermore, the second air inlet 220 and the first air inlet 210 are located on two different side walls of the housing 10. The arrangement of the first air inlet 210 and the second air inlet 220 increases the air intake area of ​​the dehumidifier 100, thereby increasing the air volume and improving the dehumidification efficiency of the dehumidifier 100. Moreover, each air outlet is equipped with a filter, resulting in a smaller filter area, which makes filter removal and installation more convenient.

[0062] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sidewalls of the housing 10 include a front wall 120, a left wall 130, and a right wall. A first air inlet 210 is formed on the front wall 120. Two second air inlets 220 are provided, one on the left wall 130 and the other on the right wall. Two second openings 250 are provided, one on the left wall 130 and the other on the right wall. The second openings 250 extend vertically and are located behind the corresponding second filter screen 320, so that the second filter screen 320 can be pulled back and forth within the second opening 250.

[0063] In this embodiment, a second opening 250 and a second air inlet 220 are provided on the left wall 130, and a second opening 250 and a second air inlet 220 are provided on the right wall. The second opening 250 is located behind the second filter 320, and the second filter 320 can be pulled back and forth within the second opening 250. When removing the second filter 320, it is pulled backward from the second opening 250. When installing the second filter 320, it is pushed forward from the second opening 250. The installation and removal of the second filter 320 are convenient, facilitating filter cleaning and ensuring cleaner air inside the dehumidifier 100. This allows the dehumidifier 100 to blow out cleaner air, preventing users from inhaling dust and affecting their health.

[0064] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the dehumidifier 100 also includes a first guide plate and a second guide plate 620. The first guide plate is disposed at the connection between the front wall 120 and the left wall 130, and a portion of the inner surface of the first guide plate is arc-shaped. When the second filter 320 on the left wall 130 slides at the second air inlet 220, the second filter 320 slides along the inner surface of the first guide plate to the inner side of the first filter 310. The second guide plate 620 is disposed at the connection between the front wall 120 and the right wall 140, and a portion of the inner surface of the second guide plate 620 is arc-shaped. When the second filter 320 on the right wall 140 slides at the second air inlet 220, the second filter 320 slides along the inner surface of the second guide plate 620 to the inner side of the first filter 310.

[0065] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the first guide plate and the second guide plate 620 ensures that the second filter screen 320 is positioned inside the first filter screen 310, preventing the formation of gaps between the first filter screen 310 and the second filter screen 320. This prevents air from entering the dehumidifier 100 through the gaps, thus avoiding unfiltered air entering the heat exchanger 830 and causing blockage. Simultaneously, it prevents contamination inside the dehumidifier 100, improving the cleanliness of the air blown out by the dehumidifier 100.

[0066] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the height of the second guide plate 620 decreases sequentially from front to back.

[0067] In this embodiment, the second filter 320 is only fixed at its top and bottom sides near the first filter 310, and the middle position lacks a fixed structure, making it prone to wobbling. Therefore, the stability of the second filter 320 is poor in this area. By increasing the height of the second guide plate 620 at the front end, the stability of the second guide plate 620 is improved, as is its guiding effect on the second filter 320.

[0068] In some other embodiments of this invention, the second filter screen is in contact with the inner surface of the first filter screen.

[0069] In this embodiment, the second filter 320 is in contact with the first filter 310 to prevent gaps from forming between the first filter 310 and the second filter 320. This prevents air from entering the dehumidifier 100 through the gaps and avoids unfiltered air entering the heat exchanger 830 and causing blockage. Simultaneously, it prevents contamination inside the dehumidifier 100 and improves the cleanliness of the air blown out by the dehumidifier 100.

[0070] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the housing 10 is provided with a first slide rail 161 with its opening facing downwards, and the upper end of the second filter screen 320 is located inside the first slide rail 161. The partition 40 is provided with a second slide rail 162 with its opening facing upwards, and the lower end of the second filter screen 320 is located inside the second slide rail 162.

[0071] In this embodiment, a first slide rail 161 is provided above the second air inlet 220, and a second slide rail 162 is provided below the second air inlet 220. The second filter 320 slides within the first slide rail 161 and the second slide rail 162, allowing the second filter 320 to be removably installed at the second air inlet. The installation structure of the second filter 320 is simple, facilitating its disassembly and installation.

[0072] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4As shown, the dehumidifier 100 also includes a mounting handle 50, which is detachably connected to the second filter 320. When the second filter 320 is at the second air inlet 220, the mounting handle 50 is at the second opening 250 and completely blocks the second opening 250. The mounting handle 50 is provided with an outward-facing groove 510.

[0073] In this embodiment, the second filter 320 is connected to an installation handle 50. When the second filter 320 is at the second air inlet 220, the installation handle 50 is at the second opening 250. When the dehumidifier 100 is working, the installation handle 50 blocks the second air inlet 220 to prevent larger dust particles from entering the dehumidifier 100 and causing blockage of the second filter 320 or contamination of the inside of the dehumidifier 100, thereby improving the cleanliness of the air blown out by the dehumidifier 100.

[0074] Furthermore, the mounting handle 50 is provided with a groove 510. When removing or installing the second filter screen 320, the user can push or pull the second filter screen 320 through the mounting handle 50. The groove 510 on the mounting handle 50 makes it easier for the user to push or pull the second filter screen 320, making it more convenient to remove or install the second filter screen 320.

[0075] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the mounting handle 50 is provided with a fixing groove 530 and a locking block 520. The second filter screen 320 is provided with a locking hole 321. When the second filter screen 320 is inserted into the fixing groove 530, the locking block 520 engages with the locking hole 321.

[0076] In this embodiment, the mounting handle 50 is detachably connected to the second filter screen 320 via a locking block 520 and a locking hole 321. When connecting the mounting handle 50 and the second filter screen 320, the mounting handle 50 and the second filter screen 320 are brought close together, causing the locking block 520 to engage in the locking hole 321. At this time, the second filter screen 320 is located within the fixing groove 530, which prevents the second filter screen 320 from moving. The mounting structure of the second filter screen 320 and the mounting handle 50 is simple, and the installation method is relatively convenient.

[0077] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the dehumidifier 100 also includes an air outlet 230, an axial fan 820, a heat exchanger 830, a water receiving chamber 420, and a compressor 840. The air outlet 230 is located on the top wall 150 of the housing 10. The axial fan is located below the air outlet 230. The axial fan is configured to draw in air from its lower side and blow it upwards, causing air to enter the housing 10 through the first air inlet 210 and the second air inlet 220, and exit through the air outlet 230. The axial fan promotes air circulation, effectively improving the dehumidification efficiency of the dehumidifier 100. The heat exchanger 830 is located within the first space 170 and is configured to at least cool the air. The water receiving chamber 420 is located above the partition 40 and below the heat exchanger 830. The water receiving chamber 420 communicates with a drawer-type water tank 810. The compressor 840 is disposed within the housing 10, with a portion of the compressor 840 located within the first space 170 and another portion located within the second space 180. The dehumidifier 100 also includes a throttling device.

[0078] In this embodiment, the internal circulation of the dehumidifier 100 includes: the compressor 840 operates and discharges high-temperature, high-pressure gas; the gas enters the heat exchanger 830 and is cooled into low-temperature, high-pressure gas; then, it evaporates and absorbs heat through the heat exchanger 830 and returns to the compressor 840 as low-temperature, low-pressure gas, and this cycle repeats. The external circulation of the dehumidifier 100 includes: the axial fan 820 operates, and humid air is drawn in through the first air inlet 210 and the second air inlet 220; the water vapor in the air is condensed into water through the heat exchanger 830, turning the humid air into dry air; the heat exchanger 830 heats the air, and the dry air is blown out through the air outlet 230, and this cycle repeats to reduce indoor humidity.

[0079] Furthermore, heat exchanger 830 is a U-shaped finned tube heat exchanger with the opening facing backward.

[0080] In some embodiments of this invention, the dehumidifier 100 further includes a temperature and humidity sensor for detecting the humidity and temperature of the indoor environment where the dehumidifier 100 is located. The humidity and temperature detected by the temperature and humidity sensor can accurately adjust the operating state of the dehumidifier 100. For example, if the detected humidity is higher than a preset humidity level, it can be considered that the indoor humidity is too high, affecting the user's comfort and health. In this case, the dehumidifier 100 can be controlled to start dehumidifying, reducing the indoor humidity, improving user comfort, and protecting the user's health.

[0081] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the housing 10 is provided with multiple air inlets. The air inlets on the front wall 120 form the first air inlet 210, and the air inlets on the left wall 130 and the right wall 140 form the second air inlets 220.

[0082] In this embodiment, multiple air inlets can block larger pollutants from entering the dehumidifier 100, initially filtering the air entering the dehumidifier 100, preventing larger pollutants from entering the dehumidifier 100 and clogging the filter screen, thereby improving the cleanliness of the air inside the dehumidifier 100 and making the air blown out by the dehumidifier 100 cleaner.

[0083] Therefore, those skilled in the art should recognize that although many exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications conforming to the principles of the present invention can be directly determined or derived from the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be understood and recognized as covering all such other variations or modifications.
