Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water supply cotton rod technology, specifically a curved water supply cotton rod used in ultrasonic atomizers. Background Technology

[0002] A misting fan is a fan with an atomizer installed on its body. The atomizer uses high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to convert water in the tank into nano-sized water mist, which is then sprayed outwards. As the fan blows air, it carries the water mist and diffuses it to the surrounding environment, increasing the humidity of the air and thus purifying and moisturizing it. To ensure that the water mist is fully incorporated into the airflow, the optimal placement for the atomizer's outlet is at the axis of the airflow and should be as parallel as possible to the airflow passing through its location. Therefore, the best placement for the atomizer on a misting fan is at the center of the fan's air outlet shroud, with the atomizing plate on the atomizer facing the same direction as the fan's airflow.

[0003] Meanwhile, the cotton rod that provides water to the ultrasonic atomizing plate can only achieve efficient water delivery when it is in a fluffy state. When the rod is bent, the bent part will be squeezed to form a water blockage point, which hinders the normal delivery of water.

[0004] Therefore, the water level in the atomizer tank of the spray fan must be higher than the bottom edge of the atomizing plate to ensure that the water in the tank can supply the atomizing plate normally during operation. However, since the ultrasonic atomizing plate is formed by multiple atomizing micropores arranged throughout the front and back of the atomizing plate body, in this working environment where the water source is at a high level, the water source will form a large water pressure at the atomizing micropores. Inevitably, water leakage will occur at the atomizing micropores. As a result, existing spray fans inevitably experience water leakage from the atomizing plate when filled with water, which seriously affects the working effect of the atomizing plate and the user experience. This is also a technical difficulty that has not been solved in this field to date. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a curved water supply rod for use in an ultrasonic atomizer. The water supply rod is formed by splicing two sections, a first rod and a second rod, to form a curved shape. With the help of an elastic element, a tight connection is achieved between the first rod and the second rod, and between the first rod and the atomizing plate. This not only allows the water level line of the atomizing water tank to be set below the water level line of the atomizing plate, preventing water leakage from the atomizing plate, but also ensures a tight and stable water circuit connection, effectively guaranteeing the stability of the atomizer's operation, improving product performance and user satisfaction, and solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom end of the second pipe has a water-permeable hole that penetrates the inside and outside of the shell.

[0014] Preferably, the housing comprises a left shell and a right shell that are connected to each other.

[0015] Preferably, the left and right shells are integrally connected by a fastening mechanism, which includes a rivet located at the edge of the left shell and a rivet ring located at the edge of the right shell. The rivet can be fastened into the rivet ring.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] This invention relates to a water supply wick composed of two sections, a first wick and a second wick, joined together to form a curved shape. An elastic element ensures a tight connection between the first and second wicks, and between the first wick and the atomizing plate. This not only allows the water level in the atomizing tank to be positioned below the water level in the atomizing plate, preventing leakage, but also ensures a tight and stable water circuit connection, effectively guaranteeing the stability of the atomizer's operation and improving product performance and user satisfaction.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-4 A curved water supply swab for use in an ultrasonic atomizer includes a housing 1. The housing 1 includes a first pipe 11 and a second pipe 12 arranged intersecting each other. The intersection of the first pipe 11 and the second pipe 12 defines the first pipe 11 as a front end 111 and a rear end 112 in the length direction of the first pipe 11. The front end 111, the rear end 112, and the second pipe 12 are internally interconnected. A first swab 2 is inserted into the front end 111, and a second swab 3 is inserted into the second pipe 12. An elastic element 4, which can be a cylindrical spring, is provided in the rear end 112. The first swab 2 and the second swab 3 meet and connect at the intersection of the first pipe 11 and the second pipe 12. The elastic element 4 applies elastic force to the meeting point of the first swab 2 and the second swab 3 to keep the first swab 2 and the second swab 3 tightly connected.

[0029] The included angle formed by the intersection of the first pipe 11 and the second pipe 12 is denoted as "θ". The ends where the first cotton rod 2 and the second cotton rod 3 intersect are both truncated, and they are joined by complementary truncated surfaces. The angle formed by these complementary truncated surfaces is equal to "θ". In conventional applications, θ is set to 90°. When θ is 90°, the rear end 112 can generate a resilient force perpendicular to the second cotton rod 3 and parallel to the first cotton rod 2 on the rear side of the second cotton rod 3. Figure 4 As shown, at this point, the spring force loss is minimal, and the total length of the cotton rod is the shortest when used in water at the same depth, thus saving resources.

[0030] The housing 1 includes a left shell 13 and a right shell 14 that are connected to each other. The left shell 13 and the right shell 14 are integrally connected by a fastening mechanism 16. The fastening mechanism 16 includes a rivet 161 located at the edge of the left shell 13 and a rivet ring 162 located at the edge of the right shell 14. The rivet 161 can be fastened into the rivet ring 162. The end of the front end 111 away from the rear end 112 is an open port. A portion of the first cotton rod 2 extends outward from the open port. The outward extension of one end of the first cotton rod 2 is necessary to maintain a good connection with the atomizing plate of the atomizer. The end of the rear end 112 away from the front end 111 is a sealed end, and the elastic member 4 is confined within the rear end 112. The end of the second pipe 12 away from the intersection is a sealed end, and the second cotton rod 3 is confined within the second pipe 12. The second pipe 12 has a water-permeable hole 15 at the bottom end that penetrates the inside and outside of the shell. When the cotton stick is inserted into the water, water can enter the shell 1 through the water-permeable hole 15 for the cotton stick to absorb.

[0031] See Figures 5-8 The above-mentioned curved water supply swab is used in a spray fan, including a fan body 6 and an atomizer 5. The spray fan 6 has an atomizer embedding cavity at the middle of the air outlet. The atomizer 5 has a first magnetic suction member 56 and a first electrical terminal 57 on the side facing the atomizer embedding cavity. The atomizer embedding cavity has a second magnetic suction member 61 and a second electrical terminal 62 respectively at the positions of the first magnetic suction member 56 and the first electrical terminal 57. The atomizer 5 is detachably connected through the first magnetic suction member 56 and the second magnetic suction member 61, and electrically connected through the first electrical terminal 57 and the second electrical terminal 62.

[0032] The atomizer 5 includes a water tank 55 and an inner water tank cover 53 sealed to the water tank opening. A waterproof sealing ring 54 achieves a water seal between the water tank 55 and the inner water tank cover 53. An atomizing plate base 531 is provided on the inner water tank cover 53, and a water inlet 532 is formed at the axis of the atomizing plate base 531. The atomizing plate 52 is installed inside the atomizing plate base 531. An outer water tank cover 51 is fitted onto the side of the inner water tank cover 53 away from the water tank, and the atomizing plate 52 is clamped within the water tank. Between the inner cover 53 and the outer cover 51 of the water tank, a spray hole 511 is provided on the outer cover 51 corresponding to the position of the atomizing plate 52. The curved water supply cotton swab is placed in the water tank. The front end 111 of the curved water supply cotton swab is inserted from the rear end of the water supply hole, so that one end of the first cotton swab 2 is in contact with the atomizing plate 52. The second pipe 12 extends to the bottom of the water tank for absorbing water. A water inlet 551 is provided on the wall of the water tank 55. A water inlet cover 552 is movably encapsulated on the water inlet 551.

[0033] In summary, this utility model uses a water supply rod composed of two sections, a first rod 2 and a second rod 3, joined together to form a curved shape. The elastic element 4 ensures a tight connection between the first rod 2 and the second rod 3, and between the first rod 2 and the atomizing plate 52. This not only allows the water level in the atomizing tank to be positioned below the water level in the atomizing plate 52, preventing water leakage, but also ensures a tight and stable water circuit connection, effectively guaranteeing the stability of the atomizer 5's operation and improving product performance and user satisfaction.
