[0002] Humidifiers, as an important household appliance for improving indoor air humidity, have seen rapid development in recent years due to increased health awareness and the pursuit of a higher quality of life. Traditional humidifiers mainly include ultrasonic, steam, and cold evaporation types, but they generally suffer from the following technical bottlenecks:

[0003] A single-channel water flow design can easily lead to slow water drainage, causing excessive water accumulation at the handle area and overflowing into the impeller duct, thus affecting the normal operation of the humidifier. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a top-filled multi-water-path evaporative humidifier structure. It aims to solve the problem that a single-path water flow design is prone to slow water flow, resulting in excessive water accumulation at the handle position and overflowing into the impeller duct, thus affecting the normal operation of the humidifier.

[0033] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0034] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a top-filled, multi-water-path, bottom-evapor humidifier structure, comprising:

[0036] The housing 2 has a handle 14 with a water inlet hole 6 on its top;

[0037] The dual-water-path water intake structure 3 is installed inside the shell 2 and includes two independent water-draining components;

[0038] Water tank 12 is detachably connected to the bottom of the inner side of the shell 2 and is connected to the inside of water tank 12 through the dual water channel water inlet structure 3 for adding water;

[0039] A water guide bracket 1 is installed at the bottom of the handle 14. The water guide bracket 1 is provided with a water guide channel corresponding to the dual water channel water intake structure 3.

[0040] The air duct support 11 is supported inside the housing 2 to form an air duct 10 that connects the air inlet and the air outlet;

[0041] Wind turbine 5 is mounted on air duct support 11;

[0042] The wet curtain 13 is installed on top of the water tank 12.

[0043] It should be noted that the entire shell 2 is made of waterproof material, such as ABS engineering plastic. A handle 14 is located at the top, and a water inlet 6 is located at the top of the handle 14. Water can be added from the top through the water inlet 6, allowing for water replenishment without flipping the device. This top-filling design significantly improves user convenience and avoids the inconvenience of traditional bottom-filling methods. The combination of the dual water guide channels and the dual water path water intake structure 3 enables water flow diversion, improving the water filling efficiency of the water tank 12.

[0044] The dual-water-path water intake structure 3 consists of two independent water-draining components, which are embedded in the inner sides of the shell 2 respectively, and the bottom of the water-draining components are connected to the water tank 12. The dual-water-path structure can supply two streams of water to the water tank 12 simultaneously.

[0045] The water guide bracket 1 has two water guide channels corresponding to the dual water channel structure 3. The water guide channels of the water guide bracket 1 can quickly guide the water flow into the water tank 12, preventing water from accumulating at the handle 14. The air duct bracket 11 is made of metal stamping and is supported inside the housing 2, forming a straight ventilation duct 10 between the air inlet and the air outlet. The straight ventilation duct 10 reduces airflow resistance and improves the efficiency of the impeller 5.

[0046] The impeller 5 is preferably a three-bladed centrifugal fan, installed at the end of the air duct bracket 11. The evaporative cooling pad 13 is made of honeycomb paper material, with a height of 8cm, and is perpendicular to the airflow direction of the impeller 5. The honeycomb cooling pad 13 increases the evaporation contact area, and together with the high-speed airflow of the impeller 5, achieves efficient evaporative humidification; the vertical arrangement further extends the contact time between the airflow and the cooling pad 13.

[0047] In some embodiments, the dual-water-path water intake structure 3 includes two independent drainage components, which are respectively configured as follows:

[0048] First drainage component 31: connected to the first water guiding channel of water guiding bracket 1;

[0049] The second drain component 32 is connected to the second water guiding channel of the water guiding bracket 1. The water outlets of the first drain component 31 and the second drain component 32 converge in the water tank 12.

[0050] It should be noted that the dual-water-path water intake structure 3 consists of a first water-drop component 31 and a second water-drop component 32, both of which are hollow tubular structures. The first water-drop component 31 is connected to the first water-guiding channel of the water-guiding bracket 1, and the second water-drop component 32 is connected to the second water-guiding channel. Both are fixed to the inside of the housing 2 by threads or snap-fits. The dual independent water-path design can evenly distribute water flow to different areas of the water tank 12, avoiding overload of water flow on one side, which could cause excessive water accumulation at the handle position and overflow into the impeller duct.

[0051] In one example, a water pump 8 is connected to the bottom of the water tank 12, and the outlet of the water pump 8 is connected to the wet curtain 13 via a hose.

[0052] It should be noted that the water pump 8 is a miniature DC water pump, installed at the bottom of the water tank 12, with a preferred power of 12W. The water outlet of the water pump 8 is connected to the spray head at the top of the evaporative cooling pad 13 via a silicone hose. The water pump 8 can actively transport water from the water tank 12 to the top of the evaporative cooling pad 13 to achieve spray humidification, further expanding the evaporation area and increasing the humidification speed.

[0053] In some embodiments, a purification filter is provided on the wet curtain 13 inside the air duct 10.

[0054] It should be noted that the purification filter is installed inside the air duct 10, between the wet curtain 13 and the impeller 5. The filter material is an activated carbon fiber composite membrane with a filtration accuracy of 0.1μm.

[0055] In some embodiments, the air outlet is equipped with a curved grille-type air outlet mesh 9, the radius of curvature of which is tangent to the air outlet direction of the impeller 5.

[0056] It should be noted that the curved grille-style air outlet 9 is made of multiple arc-shaped metal strips welded together, with a curvature radius of R150mm, and is tangent to the air outlet direction of the impeller 5. The curved design can evenly diffuse high-speed airflow to all corners of the room, reducing the feeling of direct airflow; the tangential direction follows the air outlet trajectory of the impeller 5, reducing wind resistance and noise.

[0057] In some embodiments, the outer walls of both the first drain component 31 and the second drain component 32 are covered with a sound-absorbing cotton layer. The bottom of the housing 2 is provided with a caster wheel base 7.

[0058] It should be noted that the sound-absorbing cotton layer is made of polyurethane foam material, with a preferred thickness of 3mm, and is wrapped around the outer wall of the first drain component 31 and the second drain component 32. The sound-absorbing cotton layer absorbs the vibration noise generated by the water flow impacting the drain components.

[0059] The caster base 7 consists of four sets of nylon wheels with brakes, and the base 7 is fixed to the housing 2 with bolts. The caster design allows the humidifier to be moved flexibly to any position, and the braking function prevents slippage during operation.

[0060] In practical application, the user first fills the water tank 12 directly through the water inlet 6 of the handle 14 on the top of the housing 2, without disassembling the water tank 12, making operation convenient. The first drain component 31 and the second drain component 32 of the dual water channel water inlet structure 3 inside the humidifier simultaneously guide the water flow into the water tank 12. After filling with water, the power is turned on to start the humidifier. At this time, the impeller 5 starts to rotate, introducing air through the straight ventilation duct 10 formed by the air duct bracket 11. The airflow passes through the surface of the wet curtain 13, achieving efficient evaporative humidification. The user can adjust the humidification mode through the controller, and the curved grille-type air outlet 9 optimizes the airflow distribution according to the air outlet direction of the impeller 5, reducing the direct blowing sensation and lowering noise. During operation, the water pump 8 automatically delivers water from the water tank 12 to the top spray head of the wet curtain 13 to replenish the water consumed by evaporation and maintain a continuous humidification effect. If the device needs to be moved, the user can flexibly adjust its position using the universal wheel base 7 at the bottom of the housing 2.

[0061] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
