Detailed Implementation

[0021] The utility model objective of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments cannot be described one by one here, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0022] Air purification temporarily stores particulate matter in the air through various filters, thus purifying the air. However, there are still some very tiny virus particles in the air that cannot be filtered out by filters. Therefore, we need advanced chlorination methods to break down the molecular chains of these viruses and kill them. This is why air disinfection exists. Air disinfection actively releases drug molecules that can kill bacteria and viruses and also has its own bactericidal function. The bactericidal effect of these drugs and the equipment itself must not be harmful to the human body. This is true air disinfection.

[0023] Let's first look at how nature purifies and disinfects the air. Through our observation of nature, we've found several ways it purifies the air: 1. Rain is the most common method of air purification. Rain can filter out particles larger than 2µm. Since particles between 0-5µm float in the air, the average value is what we commonly call PM2.5. Particulate matter has a characteristic in water: 0-2µm particles never settle. Therefore, rain can purify particles larger than 2µm, which is why the air is relatively fresh after rain. 2. Fog is also a natural purification method. Fog consists of very small, highly dense water droplets. This large volume allows it to absorb a large number of particles, which then slowly settle to the ground, achieving an air purification effect. This is why the air is very fresh after the morning fog dissipates. 3. Another natural method is the photosynthesis of trees, which releases negative oxygen ions and absorbs carbon dioxide, thus purifying and disinfecting the air. Negative oxygen ions are oxidants; they can react with organic matter in the air, changing their molecular structure and thus disinfecting the air. 4. The most abundant bodies of water in nature—oceans, lakes, rivers, and waterfalls—generate a large number of negative oxygen ions through the collision of water with other objects. This is why the air feels very fresh near waterfalls. 5. Lightning has the greatest air-purifying effect in nature. Our planet experiences at least one million lightning strikes per minute, generating more electricity than the entire United States generates. During lightning, a large amount of ozone and negative oxygen ions are produced, killing bacteria and viruses in the air. Therefore, lightning plays a significant role in air purification.

[0024] In summary, by applying the above principles and incorporating water film, water impact, and negative ion technologies into the product, we have developed an antibacterial water-washing air purifier to address the existing problems in air purification systems.

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an antibacterial water-washing air purifier includes a purifier housing 1, a waterproof motor 2, a motor base 3, a negative ion generator 4, a water-absorbing fan 5, an antibacterial filter 6, and a purifier water tank 7. The purifier housing 1 has an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102, both of which are connected to the purifier water tank 7. The bottom of the purifier housing 1 is connected to the top of the motor base 3 to form the purifier body. The waterproof motor 2 and the negative ion generator 4 are both installed inside the purifier body. The shaft of the waterproof motor 2 faces the purifier water tank 7 and is connected to the water-absorbing fan 5. The water-absorbing fan 5 is located inside the purifier water tank 7, and its suction pipe 503 passes through the holes of the antibacterial filter 6. The antibacterial filter 6 is located inside the purifier water tank 7. The water tank 7 of the purifier is detachably connected to the main body of the purifier. When the main body of the purifier is separated from the water tank 7, the antibacterial filter 6 can be replaced and water can be added to the water tank 7.

[0026] The purifier housing 1 is used for drawing in and expelling air. The waterproof motor 2, available on the market, has a certain degree of waterproofing and powers the water-absorbing fan 5. The motor mount 3 is used to mount and secure the waterproof motor 2. The negative ion generator 4 continuously absorbs suspended particles in the air by releasing negative ions, while simultaneously activating oxygen ions in the air, improving air quality and sleep quality. When the water-absorbing fan 5 rotates via its blades 501, the air drives the water-absorbing pipe 503 to draw in water. The water forms a filtered water film under centrifugal force, which cleans the air. Simultaneously, the filtered water film impacts the purifier's water tank 7, forming mist, which further absorbs particulate matter in the air, achieving air purification. The antibacterial filter 6 rotates slowly with the water in the purifier's water tank 7 during operation, achieving all-around filtration. The antibacterial filter 6 is made of polyurethane foam; zinc oxide, copper oxide, or silver ions can also be added to the polyurethane foam to inhibit bacterial growth and kill bacteria. The water tank 7 of the purifier is used to store water, and you can also add aromatherapy essential oils, aromatherapy granules or disinfectant to the water to increase fragrance and kill bacteria.

[0027] like Figure 4As shown, the water-absorbing fan 5 includes a fixed blade circular plate 502, a bushing 504, a water-absorbing pipe 503, and six fan blades 501. The inner ends of the six fan blades 501 are all fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the bushing, and the bushing 504 is connected to the rotating shaft of the waterproof motor 2. The bottom of the six fan blades 501 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed blade circular plate 502, and the six fan blades 501 are evenly distributed on the fixed blade circular plate 502 with the bushing 504 as the center. The fixed blade circular plate 502 has a through hole 5021 in the center, and the water-absorbing pipe 503 has a trumpet-shaped structure, with the upper end of the water-absorbing pipe 503 communicating with the through hole 5021. The lower end of the water-absorbing pipe 503 passes through the tube hole of the antibacterial filter 6.

[0028] Explanation of the working principle of antibacterial water-washable air purifier: Figure 5 As shown, tap water is filled into the purifier's water tank 7. A waterproof motor 3 on the motor base 3 drives the suction pipe 503 and fan blades 501 to rotate. After the suction pipe 503 draws in water, the fan blades 501 centrifuge the water to form a filtered water film, washing the air. Simultaneously, the water film impacts the purifier's water tank 7, forming mist, which together adsorbs particulate matter in the air, achieving air purification. An antibacterial filter 6 is installed inside the purifier's water tank 7. When the air purifier is running, the antibacterial filter 6 rotates slowly along with the water in the tank 7, achieving all-around filtration. The negative ion generator 4 inside the purifier releases negative ions to continuously adsorb suspended particles in the air, while simultaneously activating oxygen ions in the air, improving air quality and sleep quality. After the air purifier starts working, the fan blades 501 draw outside air into the purified water tank through the air inlet 101. The air entering the purified water tank 7 is filtered by a water film, which traps dust particles larger than PM2.5 and the bacteria attached to them within the water film. The trapped air then falls back to the outer ring of the purified water tank 7 along with the water film, while the clean air returns to the outside environment through the air outlet 102. This achieves the function of removing PM2.5 and larger particles from the air. As the air purifier operates, the water in the purified water tank 7 flows from the outside to the water intake pipe 503 in the center of the purified water tank 7. During this flow, the water passes through the antibacterial filter 6, where the surface of the antibacterial filter 6 traps particles and bacteria brought into the water. At the same time, due to the action of the antibacterial agent, the trapped bacteria die quickly, ensuring that the water film formed after passing through the antibacterial filter 6 and being re-inhaled remains sterile.

[0029] The advantages of the antibacterial water-washing air purifier are as follows: 1. The antibacterial filter 6 can effectively filter particles and bacteria in the water, ensuring stable air purification. 2. The antibacterial water-washing air purifier only requires periodic replenishment of water into the water tank 7 to operate continuously. The antibacterial filter 6 can be easily cleaned to remove dust particles and is reusable; compared to traditional purifiers, it is simple to use and has low operating costs. 3. Compared to traditional air purifiers, the air purified by the antibacterial water-washing air purifier carries some pure, sterile water molecules back into the air, providing a humidifying effect while purifying. 4. Regular cleaning of the antibacterial filter 6 in the water tank 7 keeps the water sterile, preventing bacterial growth and secondary pollution due to excessive accumulation over time. 5. The antibacterial water-washing air purifier utilizes the principles of natural air purification, making it safer, more efficient, and more effective, suitable for various environments. 6. Custom text or patterns can be added to the outer surface of the antibacterial filter 6 as needed. The antibacterial filter 6 rotates slowly in the purifier water tank 7, beautifying the machine. 7. Add aromatherapy essential oils, aromatherapy granules, or safe disinfectant to the purifier water tank 7 to give the antibacterial water-washing air purifier other alternative functions such as fragrance enhancement or sterilization.

Any other changes or equivalent substitutions made without departing from the technical solution of this utility model are included within the protection scope of this utility model.
