Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of humidifiers, specifically a column humidifier. Background Technology

[0002] A humidifier is a household appliance that increases the humidity in a room. Humidifiers can humidify a specific room or be connected to a boiler or central air conditioning system to humidify the entire building. After years of popularizing the concept of air quality, developing products, and cultivating the market, the functions and roles of this relatively unfamiliar small appliance have gradually been accepted.

[0003] Chinese patent CN202210775977.5 discloses a humidifier comprising a base and a water tank. A mist generating device for producing mist is disposed within the base. The water tank is disposed within the base and supplies liquid to the mist generating device. A fan is disposed within a fan mounting cavity defined by the base and generates an airflow to deliver mist out of the humidifier; the fan mounting cavity defines an air delivery channel with an air outlet. The humidifier also includes a mist delivery assembly disposed within the base, comprising a noise reduction device and an air guide device. The noise reduction device is disposed above the mist generating device and guides water droplets in the mist to the liquid surface; the air guide device is disposed at the air outlet and configured to guide the airflow from the air outlet to an area deviating from the vertical direction corresponding to the mist generating device, effectively increasing the mist output.

[0004] While existing humidifiers can solve the problems of traditional humidifiers that blow out mist directly from the mist generator using a fan, resulting in less mist and a less "fine" mist that easily forms water droplets on the floor or tabletop, affecting the customer experience, the internal filter of the humidifier can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold. Without timely sterilization, indoor air cleanliness cannot be guaranteed.

[0005] Therefore, a column-type humidifier is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a column humidifier to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the filter element inside the humidifier is prone to become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold, and that indoor air cannot be kept clean if sterilization is not carried out in time.

[0008] The water filtration assembly includes a water tank, a positioning plate, and a limiting plate. Positioning plates are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the water tank, and the positioning plates are welded to both sides of the inner wall of the machine body. A limiting plate is welded to the top of the positioning plate.

[0009] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a tank cover, a limiting block, and a water inlet pipe. The top of the water tank is fitted with the tank cover, and the outer walls of the tank cover are welded to both sides with limiting blocks. The limiting blocks and the limiting plate are fitted together, and the water inlet pipe is connected through the middle of the tank cover.

[0010] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a water outlet pipe and an inner tank, the bottom of the water tank is welded to the water outlet pipe, and the water tank is provided with an inner tank inside.

[0011] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a water filter port, and the bottom of the inner tank has water filter ports reserved at equal intervals.

[0012] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a rotating shaft, which is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the inner tank.

[0013] Preferably, the water filtration assembly further includes a connecting block and a cleaning strip. The connecting block is welded to the outer wall of the inner tank, and the cleaning strip is glued to the side of the connecting block away from the inner tank.

[0014] Preferably, the machine body includes casters, a cover, a top cover, and a waterproof cover. Casters are welded to the four corners of the bottom of the machine body, and the top of the machine body is fitted with the cover. The top cover is provided on the side of the cover, and a waterproof cover is fitted to the middle of the top cover.

[0015] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0016] 1.
