Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of formula humidifier technology, specifically relating to a contact atomizing module that utilizes a wastewater tank for humidification and its formula humidifier. Background Technology

[0002] After each use, residual wastewater remains in the piping between the heater and the spout of a formula maker. This wastewater, if left untreated, breeds bacteria and affects the safety of subsequent water output. Users must manually drain the wastewater to ensure water quality, but this is cumbersome and increases water costs, becoming a pain point in the product. This led to the development of formula maker wastewater tank technology. Through innovations such as automatic wastewater discharge, dual-tank separation, and intelligent temperature control, the hygiene hazards and operational pain points of traditional equipment have been solved, making it an essential childcare tool for modern families. In the future, with the development of materials science and IoT technology, wastewater tank technology will further evolve towards "seamless" and "personalized" solutions, providing a more solid guarantee for the healthy growth of infants and young children.

[0003] Currently, there are more and more types of formula makers with wastewater tanks on the market, but the water in the wastewater tank is usually just emptied when it is full, which wastes water resources; some formula makers discharge residual wastewater through drinking water outlets or independent drain outlets, but the discharged wastewater is not recycled or reused, which increases water costs.
