[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air purification technology, and in particular to an air purifier with humidification function. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional air handling equipment, air purification and humidification functions are typically achieved through a single air duct system. Air purification requires high-volume circulation for efficient filtration, while humidification, limited by atomization efficiency and humidity uniformity requirements, only needs a smaller air volume. When an air purifier is configured with a high air volume primarily for purification, the humidification module cannot atomize adequately due to the excessively fast airflow, resulting in low humidification efficiency and wasted energy. Conversely, when the air volume is reduced to meet humidification needs, insufficient circulation in the purification module leads to pollutant accumulation, affecting air quality. Therefore, how to simultaneously achieve air purification and humidification functions in an air purifier has become a pressing technical challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0035] One embodiment of this utility model provides an air purifier with a humidification function, as shown in Figures 1-6, including:

[0036] The housing 1 has an air inlet 11 and an air outlet 12 respectively arranged on its side walls, and a humidifying air outlet 41 is provided on its top.

[0037] Purification module 2 is disposed inside the housing 1, and the purification module 2 is used to purify air;

[0038] The humidification module 3 is disposed between the purification module 2 and the humidification air outlet 41. The humidification module 3 is used to humidify the purified air.

[0039] This embodiment features an air outlet 12 on the side wall of the housing 1, a humidifying air outlet 41 on the top of the housing 1, and a humidifying module 3 on the top of the purification module 2. External air is drawn in by the drive component 21 and enters the housing 1 through the filter 22. The purified air is then output through the air outlets 12 on opposite sides. Simultaneously, the purified air is humidified by the humidifying component 33 on the top, and the humidified air is output from the humidifying air outlet 41 on the top. This allows for simultaneous air purification and humidification in a single device, enhancing the practicality of the equipment and improving the user experience. In this embodiment, air inlets 11 are provided on the left and right opposite sides of the housing 1. The air inlets 11 are located at the air intake end of the purification module 2 to ensure air intake efficiency. Air outlets 12 are provided on the front and rear opposite sides of the housing 1. After being processed by the purification module 2, the external air is discharged horizontally from the air outlets 12 on the front and rear sides along the transverse air duct. At the same time, a humidification module 3 is provided above the purification module 2. The humidification module 3 is connected to the humidification air outlet 41 on the top of the housing 1 through the top guide channel. When the external air is purified by the purification module 2, part of it is discharged directly from the front and rear air outlets 12 along the transverse air duct to form a purified airflow, and the other part enters the humidification module 3 vertically upward. After being humidified by the humidification module 3, it diffuses upward through the humidification air outlet 41 on the top, thereby realizing the independent operation and collaborative work of purification and humidification functions. This allows the air purification needs to be met and the humidification function to be turned on simultaneously in a single device, improving the practicality of the device and enhancing the user experience. Specifically, the air inlet 11, air outlet 12, and humidification outlet 41 are all grid structures. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the air inlet 11, air outlet 12, and humidification outlet 41 may also be perforated structures.

[0040] Further, the purification module 2 includes a drive assembly 21 and a filter 22. The filter 22 is located between the drive assembly 21 and the air inlet 11, and is used to filter impurities in the external air. The drive assembly 21 drives the external air to enter through the air inlet 11 and exit through the air outlet 12. Specifically, under the negative pressure generated by the drive assembly 21, the external air enters the housing 1 through the air inlet 11. The airflow first passes through the filter 22, which intercepts particulate matter in the air. At this time, the relative position between the filter 22 and the drive assembly 21 makes the airflow velocity tend to be gentle after filtration, avoiding high-speed airflow directly impacting the surface of the filter 22. The filtered air then enters the area where the drive assembly 21 is located, and is driven by the drive assembly 21 to exit through the air outlet 12. Specifically, the filter 22 adopts a multi-layer composite structure. The filter 22 is set between the air inlet 11 and the drive component 21 and completely covers the air inlet area, so that the external air can completely pass through the filter 22 to filter impurities after entering from the air inlet 11, avoiding the problem of insufficient purification in local areas and improving the purification effect.

[0041] Furthermore, the drive assembly 21 includes a motor mounting plate 211, a wind turbine guard plate 212, a motor 214, and two wind turbines 213. The wind turbine guard plate 212 is fixedly connected to the motor mounting plate 211. The motor mounting plate 211 is located between the two wind turbines 213. The motor 214 is fixed to the mounting bracket, and the wind turbines 213 are mounted on the drive end of the motor 214. Specifically, the mounting bracket includes a motor mounting plate 211 and a wind turbine guard plate 212. The wind turbine guard plate 212 is fixedly connected to the motor mounting plate 211. The motor mounting plate 211 is located between the two wind turbines 213. The motor 214 is mounted on the motor mounting plate 211. The two wind turbines 213 are respectively mounted on the drive end of the motor 214. The wind turbine guard plate 212 adopts an arc-shaped guide shroud structure. The wind turbine guard plate 212 is set on the outside of the wind turbines 213 on both sides to prevent the risk of foreign objects being drawn in when the wind turbines 213 rotate. When the motor 214 starts, it drives the wind turbines 213 to rotate at high speed, generating airflow that draws air in from the air inlet 11, filters it through the filter screen 22, and discharges it from the air outlet 12.

[0042] Furthermore, the humidification module 3 includes a humidification component 33, a water tank 31, and a water pump 32. The humidification component 33 is disposed within the water tank 31, and the water pump 32 is disposed within the water tank 31. The water outlet of the water pump 32 is connected to the humidification component 33. In this embodiment, the water tank 31 serves as a water storage container, forming an airflow channel with the air outlet of the purification module 2 through a bottom connecting hole 34. The water pump 32 is embedded in the bottom of the water tank 31 and connected to the humidification component 33 via a flexible hose. The spray bracket 331 receives the water flow delivered by the water pump 32 and distributes it evenly to the wet curtain 332. It should be noted that the water tank 31 can be made of a transparent material for easy observation of the water level. The water pump 32 can be a miniature DC water pump 32, which features low noise and low power consumption.

[0043] Furthermore, a connecting hole 34 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 31, which is connected to the air outlet of the purification module 2 to guide purified air into the water tank 31. Specifically, a circular connecting hole 34 is provided at the center of the bottom of the water tank 31, and its position is directly connected to the air outlet of the purification module 2. After passing through the purification module 2, the air enters the internal space of the water tank 31 through the connecting hole 34, allowing the airflow direction to flow naturally from bottom to top. Specifically, the purified air enters the connecting hole 34 from the air outlet of the purification module 2. Since the connecting hole 34 is located at the bottom of the water tank 31, the air flows upward under pressure and diffuses into the water tank 31. During this process, the air comes into full contact with the humidification component 33 inside the water tank 31, achieving humidification. Because the airflow path is limited to a one-way channel from bottom to top, short-circuiting or local stagnation of airflow is avoided, ensuring improved utilization of the humidification medium. At the same time, the direct connection between the connecting hole 34 and the purification module 2 allows the air to complete path switching without additional guiding structures, reducing energy loss. It should be noted that a sealing ring can be installed on the edge of the connecting hole 34 to prevent water leakage.

[0044] Furthermore, the humidification component 33 includes a wet curtain 332 and a spray bracket 331. The water pump 32 is connected to the spray bracket 331, and the wet curtain 332 is detachably installed on the spray bracket 331. Specifically, the spray bracket 331 has a ring structure, and a connecting pipe is provided inside the spray bracket 331. The connecting pipe is connected to the water pump 32 through a hose. Multiple nozzles 333 facing the wet curtain 332 are arranged along the circumference of the connecting pipe. The wet curtain 332 is detachably installed inside the spray bracket 331. When the water pump 32 is started, water in the water tank 31 is transported to the connecting pipe of the spray bracket 331 through the hose, forming water mist through the nozzles 333. The water mist condenses on the surface of the wet curtain 332 to form a water film. At the same time, the purified dry air passes horizontally through the wet curtain 332 to form a humidified airflow, which is discharged through the humidification outlet 41 at the top. It should be noted that the evaporative cooling pad 332 can be installed on the sprinkler bracket 331 by means of clips, snaps, etc., and there is no limitation here; when the evaporative cooling pad 332 is installed on the sprinkler bracket 331 by snaps, when the evaporative cooling pad 332 needs to be cleaned or replaced, the user opens...

[0045] Furthermore, a boss structure 35 is provided around the connecting hole 34, and the humidifying component 33 is mounted on the boss structure 35. Specifically, a boss structure 35 is provided around the connecting hole 34, and the surface of the boss structure 35 forms an installation platform for placing the humidifying component 33. Since the humidifying component 33 has a ring structure, when the humidifying component 33 is placed on the boss, the ring structure causes the humidifying component 33 and the boss structure 35 to form a concentric nesting relationship, so that the humidifying component 33 can be stably placed in the water tank 31.

[0046] Furthermore, the top of the housing 1 is provided with an installation space 13, and the humidification module 3 is installed in the installation space 13. Specifically, the top of the housing 1 has an integrally formed installation space 13, in which a humidification module 3 is installed. A humidification air outlet 41 is provided on the top of the housing 1, allowing the humidified purified air to be discharged from the humidification air outlet 41. This arrangement positions the humidification module 3 at the end of the purified airflow path, ensuring that the humidification module 3 only receives and humidifies the air purified by the purification module 2, preventing unpurified air from entering the humidification module 3. At the same time, the spatial isolation allows the humidified air to be discharged independently from the top, forming a split airflow pattern with the air outlet 12 on the side of the housing 1. When the air purifier is running, part of the purified dry air is discharged from the side outlet 12 along the horizontal air duct, while the other part of the dry air enters the humidification module 3 along the vertical air duct, is humidified by the wet curtain 332, and is discharged through the humidification air outlet 41 on the top. This improves the practicality of the device and avoids the problem that the purification and humidification functions cannot be used simultaneously due to the single air duct of traditional air purifiers.

[0047] Furthermore, a top cover 4 is provided on the top of the housing 1, and the humidifying air outlet 41 is provided on the top cover 4. The top cover 4 is detachably connected to the housing 1. Specifically, the top cover 4 can be directly fastened to the top of the housing 1, or it can be fixed to the top of the housing 1 by means of buckles, magnetic attraction, etc. The surface of the top cover 4 adopts a concentric circular grid structure to form the humidifying air outlet 41. The central area is sealed by a closed cover plate to close the connecting hole 34 between the purification module 2 and the humidifying module 3, so that the air purified by the purification module 2 can only enter the humidifying module 3 through the connecting hole 34, be humidified by the humidifying component 33, and then be discharged through the humidifying air outlet 41. When the user needs to add water to the water tank 31 or clean it, he only needs to lift the top cover 4 to add water to the water tank 31. It should be noted that the top cover 4 can also be provided with a handle to facilitate the user to lift the top cover 4.

[0048] Furthermore, the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with casters 5. In this embodiment, four casters 5 are provided at the bottom of the housing 1, making it convenient for customers to move the air purifier to different locations. It should be noted that the casters 5 can be made of a silent material to reduce noise during movement; the casters 5 can also be casters with a self-locking function. When the position of the air purifier needs to be adjusted, the user can push the housing 1 to rotate the casters 5 to achieve flexible turning. After reaching the designated position, the casters can be fixed by locking devices such as foot pedals, so that the air purifier is fixed in the current position. This achieves the stability of the air purifier in the working state and meets the needs of frequently changing usage scenarios in daily use, thus improving the user experience.
