Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a dehumidifier. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most dehumidifiers on the market use a top or side air outlet design, which concentrates dry air in the upper middle part of the space, making it difficult to effectively reach damp areas close to the ground. This is especially true in environments with damp or stagnant water, resulting in low drying efficiency. Furthermore, because traditional dehumidifiers have high air outlets, the dry air is diluted and diffused before it can fully contact the ground, affecting dehumidification performance and energy efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dehumidifier that can effectively dry the ground and improve dehumidification efficiency.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0005] A dehumidifier includes a housing, a dehumidification module and a fan. The housing has an internal air duct, an air inlet on one side wall of the housing, and an air outlet on the other side wall of the housing near its bottom.

[0006] The dehumidification module and fan are installed in the air duct. Humid air from the outside enters the air duct through the air inlet under the action of the fan. The dehumidification module dries the humid air entering the air duct to form dry air. The dry air is discharged through the air outlet under the action of the fan.

[0007] By placing the air outlet near the bottom of the casing, the dry air can directly act on the ground area, effectively improving the drying speed of the ground. It is especially suitable for scenarios where the ground is damp, has standing water, or needs to be dried quickly after cleaning, such as homes, basements, warehouses, bathrooms, etc., making it highly practical.

[0008] In addition, the structural design optimizes the dehumidification air path. After dehumidification, the dry air is discharged from the bottom, forming an air circulation path from top to bottom. This avoids the problem of dry air accumulating at high places and failing to achieve the dehumidification effect on the ground, improves the overall dehumidification efficiency and airflow efficiency of the machine, and enhances the overall performance of the dehumidifier.

[0009] Meanwhile, the rational layout of the dehumidification module and fan within the air duct ensures a simple and smooth airflow path, reducing energy consumption and operating noise, and improving the user experience. The overall compact structure facilitates miniaturization and aesthetic design, adapting to various space layout requirements.

[0010] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures:

[0011] Furthermore, the dehumidification module includes a semiconductor cooling chip, a first aluminum profile, and a second aluminum profile. The first aluminum profile is in close contact with the cold end of the semiconductor cooling chip to form a cooling chip, and the second aluminum profile is in close contact with the hot end of the semiconductor cooling chip to form a heating chip. The cooling chip is close to the air inlet, and the heating chip is close to the air outlet.

[0012] By setting a first aluminum profile and a second aluminum profile at the cold end and hot end of a semiconductor cooling chip respectively, a cooling chip and a heating chip are formed, achieving dehumidification and reheating of the air. The cooling chip is positioned near the air inlet, which helps to quickly cool and condense the incoming humid air, effectively removing moisture and achieving dehumidification.

[0013] After being dehumidified by condensation, the air is then heated by heating elements located near the air outlet. This not only raises the air temperature, preventing cold air from being directly discharged into the room and causing discomfort, but also further reduces the relative humidity of the air, thus achieving a secondary drying effect and improving the thoroughness of dehumidification and the comfort of air handling.

[0014] Driven by a fan, a continuous and stable airflow channel is formed, allowing humid air to flow continuously as it is condensed and dehumidified by the cooling plates and heated and dried by the heating plates. The entire dehumidification and reheating process is completed efficiently within an integrated module, simplifying the structure and improving the overall energy efficiency and operational reliability of the system.

[0015] This structure features a compact design and synergistic functions, making it particularly suitable for small indoor spaces with dual requirements for air humidity and temperature. It offers significant benefits such as efficient dehumidification, improved comfort, and low energy consumption.

[0016] Furthermore, the semiconductor cooling chip is disposed in the air channel, and the semiconductor cooling chip divides the air channel into a condensation channel and a heating channel, which are connected. The first aluminum profile is placed in the condensation channel and closely attached to the cold end of the semiconductor cooling chip to form a cooling chip, and the second aluminum profile is placed in the condensation channel and closely attached to the hot end of the semiconductor cooling chip to form a heating chip.

[0017] The dual semiconductor cooling chip structure is adopted, in which the first aluminum profile and the second aluminum profile are tightly bonded to the cold end and hot end of the two semiconductor cooling chips respectively to form a cooling chip and a heating chip, thereby significantly improving the heat exchange efficiency and dehumidification performance.

[0018] The cooling element is placed near the air inlet in the condensation channel, which helps to cool and condense the incoming humid air as soon as possible, quickly extracting moisture and achieving efficient dehumidification.

[0019] The use of dual semiconductor cooling chips in series increases the overall heat exchange area and processing capacity, enabling the equipment to handle more humid air in the same amount of time, thereby improving the dehumidification rate and system response speed.

[0020] The hot end is located near the air outlet via a heating element formed by a second aluminum profile set in the heating channel. This not only warms up the dehumidified air to prevent cold air from being directly discharged and causing discomfort, but also further reduces the air humidity, thus playing a secondary drying role.

[0021] With its compact overall design and high degree of functional integration, it achieves efficient dehumidification while ensuring comfortable temperature of the exhaust air. It is suitable for various application scenarios with high requirements for environmental humidity and temperature, and has good practicality and promotional value.

[0022] Furthermore, it also includes a water tank, the housing has a water tank cavity, the water tank is detachably placed in the water tank cavity, the air duct has a drain port, and the drain port is connected to the water tank.

[0023] The condensed water droplets are directly channeled into the water collection tank through the drain port, preventing water from accumulating inside the air duct. This helps maintain smooth airflow and prevents bacterial growth or equipment damage. Meanwhile, the water collection tank is located within the water tank housing of the machine casing and features a removable structure, facilitating regular cleaning or emptying by the user, thus improving the ease of use and convenience of daily maintenance.

[0024] Furthermore, the air inlet and the entrance of the air duct are connected, and a sterilization module is provided at the entrance of the air duct.

[0025] The air inlet is connected to the air duct inlet, and a sterilization module is installed at the inlet. This module can pre-treat microorganisms, bacteria, and dust in the air as soon as it enters the dehumidification system, thereby improving the air purification effect. At the same time, through modular design, the dehumidification and sterilization functions are organically combined to ensure the cleanliness and health of the output air.

[0026] Furthermore, the sterilization device is a silver ion-containing filter, which is detachably installed at the inlet of the air duct.

[0027] It uses a detachable filter with silver ions as a sterilization device. Taking advantage of the high antibacterial properties of silver ions, it can continuously release silver ions to kill bacteria and mold, ensuring the hygiene of the incoming air. The filter can be removed and replaced, which is convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance, extends the service life of the filter, and has low maintenance costs and is easy to operate.

[0028] Furthermore, it also includes a UV germicidal lamp, which is installed inside the housing near the air inlet.

[0029] A UV germicidal lamp is installed inside the casing near the air inlet to irradiate the incoming air with deep ultraviolet light, killing bacteria, viruses and fungal spores, effectively preventing the accumulation of microorganisms on the surface of the cooling plates, and improving indoor air quality and system safety.

[0030] Furthermore, it also includes an aromatherapy module, wherein the air outlet and the air duct outlet are connected, and the aromatherapy module is detachably mounted on the housing near the air outlet.

[0031] An aromatherapy module is added near the air outlet, which can inject fragrance into the dry and purified air, achieving a two-in-one function of air quality regulation and fragrance release; the modular aromatherapy design supports the replacement of various fragrances and concentration adjustment, providing users with a personalized aromatherapy experience and improving user comfort and satisfaction.

[0032] Furthermore, it also includes a control panel, which is located on the top of the casing, and the dehumidification module, fan and UV germicidal lamp are electrically connected to the control panel.

[0033] A centralized control panel is installed on the top of the casing, connecting the dehumidification module and the UV sterilization lamp to the same control interface, enabling one-button start-up, timer, or mode switching.

[0034] Furthermore, the air outlet is located near the bottom of the front end face of the housing, the air inlet is located on the left and right end faces of the housing, and the drain hole is located near the bottom of the housing near the air inlet.

[0035] The air outlet design at the bottom of the front face of the casing, combined with the air inlet layout on the left and right sides, enables air to enter evenly from multiple directions and then diffuse out from bottom to top, making indoor air circulation more complete and significantly improving dehumidification efficiency. Moreover, the dry air is directly guided to the ground area through the air outlet, thereby accelerating the dehumidification speed of the ground and low-lying spaces.

[0036] The casing has a drainage hole at the bottom near the air inlet, which can promptly drain excess moisture that enters the casing due to high humidity or rain splashes, preventing water droplets from accumulating in the air duct or electronic components, avoiding equipment failure or corrosion due to moisture, improving the long-term reliability and safety of the system, and reducing the workload of daily maintenance.

[0037] Furthermore, the width of the housing is less than 70mm.

[0038] The casing is less than 70 mm wide, giving the dehumidifier an ultra-thin design that makes it easy to install and place in space-constrained environments, such as narrow wall gaps or the sides of furniture, thus improving space utilization.

[0039] The ultra-thin body also reduces the overall weight of the device, making it easy to move and install, and users can flexibly adjust the placement according to their needs; at the same time, the design gives the product a simpler and more modern appearance, making it easy to integrate into various home or office environments, meeting the needs of both aesthetics and practicality.

[0040] Such a compact structure also offers advantages in transportation and packaging, reducing logistics costs and the amount of packaging materials used, thereby further enhancing the product's market competitiveness.

[0041] Furthermore, a splash guard is provided at the air inlet.

[0042] A splash guard is installed at the air inlet, which can effectively block splashing water droplets from all directions. Combined with the three-dimensional airflow layout of the left and right air inlets and the bottom air outlet, the outdoor humid air is initially protected before entering the casing, preventing large water droplets from directly impacting the internal components, thereby greatly reducing the risk of moisture intrusion into the casing.

[0043] The drainage holes are designed to quickly remove any small amounts of condensate or splash water that enters the casing, keeping the air duct and internal electrical components dry and ensuring the long-term stable and safe operation of the equipment. The aforementioned splash guards and drainage holes work together to ensure that this product can resist splash water intrusion from any direction in everyday kitchens, bathrooms, and high-humidity environments, thus robustly meeting the IPX4 waterproof rating requirement.

[0044] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0045] This invention utilizes a three-dimensional airflow layout with left and right air intakes and bottom air outlets to directly guide the treated dry air to the ground area, effectively accelerating the capture and removal of moisture from the ground and lower spaces, thereby speeding up the dehumidification process of the ground and lower spaces.

[0046] This utility model features an ultra-thin design with a casing width of less than 70 mm, allowing it to be flexibly embedded in wall gaps, furniture side panels, and other locations without occupying additional floor space. At the same time, its lightweight body makes it easy for users to move and install at any time.

[0047] This utility model achieves an IPX4 waterproof standard for the entire machine. Key parts on the sides and bottom of the casing have been effectively sealed and splash-proofed, which can resist splashing water from all directions, ensuring long-term stable operation in high-humidity environments such as kitchens, laundry rooms, and bathrooms, extending equipment life and reducing failure rate.

[0048] This invention integrates a detachable silver ion filter and a UV germicidal lamp into a dual sterilization module at the air inlet. The silver ion filter continuously releases antibacterial factors to intercept and inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold; the UV lamp uses deep ultraviolet light to further kill viruses and stubborn microorganisms. This dual purification ensures that the air entering the machine receives comprehensive hygiene protection.

[0049] This utility model features an aromatherapy module installed near the air outlet, which allows users to select various aromatherapy tablets or essential oils according to their preferences. The aroma is evenly diffused into the room by a fan, combining air humidity regulation and aromatherapy functions. This allows the room to maintain suitable humidity and cleanliness while also providing a soothing and pleasant atmosphere. Attached Figure Description

[0055] The dehumidification module 200 and the fan 2 are installed in the air duct 3. Under the action of the fan 2, the outside humid air enters the air duct 3 through the air inlet 11. The dehumidification module 200 dries the outside humid air entering the air duct 3 to form dry air. The dry air is discharged through the air outlet 12 under the action of the fan 2.

[0056] Furthermore, the semiconductor cooling chip 34 is disposed in the air channel 3, and the semiconductor cooling chip 34 divides the air channel 3 into a condensation channel 32 and a heating channel 33. The condensation channel 32 and the heating channel 33 are connected. The first aluminum profile is placed in the condensation channel 32 and closely attached to the cold end of the semiconductor cooling chip 34 to form a cooling chip 4. The second aluminum profile is placed in the condensation channel 32 and closely attached to the hot end of the semiconductor cooling chip 34 to form a heating chip 5.

[0057] Furthermore, the dehumidification module 200 includes a first semiconductor cooling chip 34, a second semiconductor cooling chip 34, a first aluminum profile, and a second aluminum profile. The first aluminum profile is in close contact with the cold end of the first semiconductor cooling chip 34 and the cold end of the second cooling chip to form a cooling chip 4. The second aluminum profile is in close contact with the hot end of the first semiconductor cooling chip 34 and the hot end of the second semiconductor cooling chip 34 to form a heating chip 5. The cooling chip 4 is close to the air inlet 11, and the heating chip 5 is close to the air outlet 12.

[0058] Furthermore, it also includes a water tank 10, the housing 1 has a water tank cavity 14, the water tank 10 is detachably placed in the water tank cavity 14, the air duct 3 has a drain port 31, and the drain port 31 is connected to the water tank 10.

[0059] Furthermore, the air inlet 11 is connected to the inlet of the air duct 3, and a sterilization module is provided at the inlet of the air duct 3.

[0060] Furthermore, the sterilization device is a silver ion-containing filter 6, which is detachably installed at the inlet of the air duct 3.

[0061] Furthermore, it also includes a UV germicidal lamp 7, which is disposed inside the housing 1 near the air inlet 11.

[0062] Furthermore, it also includes an aromatherapy module 8, the air outlet 12 is connected to the outlet of the air duct 3, and the aromatherapy module 8 is disposed on the housing 1 near the air outlet 12.

[0063] Furthermore, it also includes a control panel 9, which is located on the top of the housing 1, and the dehumidification module 200, the fan 2 and the UV germicidal lamp are electrically connected to the control panel 9.

[0064] Furthermore, the air outlet 12 is provided on the front end face of the housing 1 near its bottom, the air inlet 11 is provided on both the left and right end faces of the housing 1, and the drain hole 13 is provided on the bottom of the housing 1 near the air inlet 11.

[0065] Furthermore, the width of the housing 1 is less than 70mm.

[0066] Furthermore, a splash guard 100 is provided at the air inlet 11.

[0067] Working principle:

[0068] When the dehumidifier is working, the fan 2 first creates a negative pressure at the air inlets 11 on the left and right sides of the side wall of the casing 1. The humid air from the outside is initially filtered through the air inlets 11 with splash guards 100 and splash water is blocked from entering.

[0069] After the air enters the machine, it first passes through a dual purification module that integrates a silver ion filter 6 and a UV germicidal lamp 7, effectively removing bacteria, viruses and suspended particles from the air, ensuring that the air entering the dehumidification module 200 is clean and sterile.

[0070] The purified humid air continues to be sent by the fan 2 into the condensation channel 32 of the air duct 3 to contact the cooling plate 4. The cooling plate 4 quickly lowers the air temperature to below the dew point, causing the water vapor in it to condense and precipitate.

[0071] Condensate flows into water tank 10 through drain port 31 of air passage 3 to prevent water vapor from accumulating. At the same time, dry cold air is pushed by fan 2 into heating passage 33 to contact heating element 5 for reheating and secondary drying to prevent discomfort caused by direct cold air blowing.

[0072] Finally, the reheated dry air is blown directionally from the air outlet 12 at the bottom of the front face of the casing 1 to the ground, spreading evenly along the floor and low space to "blow" the ground dry and accelerate the drying of the ground.
