Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dehumidifiers, and in particular to a dehumidifier drainage structure. Background Technology
[0002] Existing dehumidifiers primarily store water through a small upper water tank and a bottom water reservoir. Drainage methods include: directly draining water to the outside of the dehumidifier via a drain pipe installed behind the upper water tank; manually emptying the water from the lower tank after it has fallen into it; and using a water pump to draw water from the tank and discharge it through pipes to the outside of the dehumidifier.
[0003] However, in the existing design, the water pump's inlet pipe is directly located in the cavity at the bottom of the water tank. After the water tank is pulled out, the inlet pipe needs to be removed from the water tank, and after it is put back into the water tank, the inlet pipe needs to be put back into the water tank. This design makes it inconvenient for users to use and makes it easy for water to splash onto the user, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a dehumidifier drainage structure that divides the water inlet pipe into two parts, one part of which is set in the water tank and can be connected to the other part set in the dehumidifier by plugging in, thereby making it more convenient for users to use.
[0005] This utility model proposes a dehumidifier drainage structure, including a dehumidifier shell, a water tank, and a water pump;
[0006] The dehumidifier housing has a lower cavity on the front bottom side, a water outlet groove on the inner side of the lower cavity, a water outlet hole in the middle of the water outlet groove, a water pump inside the dehumidifier housing, the water pump inlet end connected to the water outlet hole of the water outlet groove through a first water inlet pipe, and the water pump outlet end connected to the housing outlet through a first water outlet pipe.
[0007] The water tank is installed in the lower cavity of the shell by snap-fit. A water tank outlet head adapted to the water outlet trough is provided on the rear side of the water tank. A second water inlet pipe is provided inside the water tank, and the top of the second water inlet pipe is connected to the water tank outlet head.
[0008] The water pump draws water from the water tank through the second inlet pipe and the first inlet pipe, and discharges the water from the water tank through the first outlet pipe.
[0009] Preferably, the water tank further includes a filter device, which is located at the end of the second water inlet pipe. By providing the filter device, impurities in the water in the water tank can be prevented from entering the second water inlet pipe.
[0010] Preferably, the filter device is provided with water inlet holes on the top and sides.
[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the filter device is provided with a support protrusion, which facilitates water intake through the water inlet hole of the filter device at the bottom.
[0012] Preferably, the water tank further includes a support base, the top of which is provided with a support groove, and the side of which is provided with a side connecting groove. The upper side of the second water inlet pipe is disposed in the support groove, and the lower side is locked in the side connecting groove. By providing the support base, the second water inlet pipe can be prevented from folding, which would affect the water quality and water flow rate.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the dehumidifier drainage structure of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. By dividing the water inlet pipe into two parts, the first water inlet pipe and the second water inlet pipe, the second water inlet pipe is set inside the water tank and can be connected to the first water inlet pipe set inside the dehumidifier by plugging it in. This makes it more convenient for users to use and eliminates the trouble of taking the water pipe out of the water tank and putting it in, as well as the trouble of water splashing on themselves.
[0015] 2. By using a support base, the second water inlet pipe can be prevented from folding, which would affect the water quality and flow rate.
[0016] 3. By installing a filtration device, impurities in the water in the tank can be prevented from entering the second water inlet pipe. Attached Figure Description
