Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aroma diffuser technology, and more specifically, it relates to an aroma diffuser liquid storage structure with a viewing window. Background Technology

[0002] Aroma diffusers, as common air conditioning devices in homes, hotels, offices, and commercial spaces, play an important role in improving indoor air quality, enhancing the ambiance, and promoting physical and mental health. However, the traditional liquid storage structure of aroma diffusers has revealed a series of technical defects in practical applications, seriously affecting user experience and product performance. In existing technologies, the installation and disassembly of the liquid storage bottle usually require the assistance of tools, such as specialized wrenches and screwdrivers. This tool-dependent design causes many inconveniences for ordinary users in daily use, especially when it is necessary to replace the aroma diffuser liquid, clean the liquid storage bottle, or perform routine maintenance. The operation steps are cumbersome and time-consuming, forcing users to prepare and store various auxiliary tools. In the absence of tools or if the tools are incompatible, it may even lead to the inability to use the aroma diffuser normally. This design concept runs counter to the development trend of modern home appliances that pursue convenience and intelligence.

[0003] Secondly, while some devices have made progress in improving ease of operation by facilitating the disassembly and assembly of liquid storage bottles through the cooperation of certain components, their connection sealing is insufficient. They often use a single-layer sealing structure or simple rubber gaskets, lacking sealing design and reliable leak-proof mechanisms. This lack of sealing performance is often vaguely addressed in product instructions and easily overlooked by users during actual use. As a result, during the operation of the device, especially when the device is working for a long time or placed on an unstable surface, factors such as vibration and tilting can cause liquid to slowly leak from the connection. This leakage not only wastes expensive aromatherapy essential oils but may also damage surrounding furniture, floors, or electronic equipment, and even cause short circuits and other safety hazards, resulting in property damage and potential dangers.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the variable diameter groove has a small inner diameter at one end and a large inner diameter at the other end, and adopts an arc-shaped transition structure in the middle, and the two ends of the fitting bracket are matched with the inner arc of the variable diameter groove.

[0011] The present invention is further provided with a plurality of rubber strips fixed on the outer side of the rotating sleeve, which enhances the operating feel and improves the anti-slip ability.

[0012] The present invention is further provided that the aroma diffuser assembly has a flexible tube inside, which passes through the fixed tube and extends into the liquid storage bottle to prevent interference during the disassembly and assembly process.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that multiple sealing rings and sealing grooves are provided to achieve a multi-layer sealing structure and enhance the sealing strength.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that one side of the inner wall of the retaining groove and one end of the retaining rod are both designed with a chamfered structure, thereby achieving an automatic clamping effect.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a liquid storage structure for an aromatherapy diffuser with a viewing window, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. Through an innovative quick-assembly and disassembly design, this device effectively solves the technical problem of requiring tools for disassembling and assembling the liquid storage bottle in traditional aroma diffusers. The structure uses a plug-and-play connection between the insertion tube at the top of the liquid storage bottle and the fixed tube inside the aroma diffuser assembly. This, combined with a linkage mechanism consisting of a rotating sleeve on the outer side, a fixed variable-diameter bracket on the inner side, and a sliding mating bracket in the variable-diameter groove, enables tool-free disassembly and assembly of the liquid storage bottle. When disassembling the bottle, simply rotate the rotating sleeve forward. The rotating sleeve will then rotate the variable-diameter bracket and the variable-diameter groove. Utilizing the special variable-diameter structure of the variable-diameter groove, the mating bracket moves the retaining rod outward, sliding it out of the retaining groove. Then, gently pull the liquid storage bottle downward. Disassembly can be completed in one go; during reinstallation, simply insert the insertion tube into the fixing tube, rotate the rotating sleeve in the opposite direction, and the engaging bracket will drive the retaining rod to re-insert into the retaining groove to complete the locking. The entire process does not require any special wrenches, screwdrivers or other professional tools. The operation is simple and intuitive, greatly simplifying the process of changing the aromatherapy liquid, cleaning the liquid storage bottle and routine maintenance. Ordinary users do not need to prepare and keep various auxiliary tools. Even if the tools are missing or incompatible, the operation can be easily completed. It perfectly matches the modern home appliance development trend of pursuing convenience and intelligence, significantly improves the user experience and the practical performance of the product, and gives the product a competitive advantage in the market.

[0018] 2. Through a meticulously designed multi-seal system, the problem of insufficient sealing at the connection points of traditional aromatherapy diffusers is completely solved. This structure uses multiple sealing rings fixed to the outer wall of the insertion tube to cooperate with multiple sealing grooves corresponding to those on the inner wall of the fixed tube, forming a multi-layer sealing structure. Simultaneously, a detachable sealing sleeve is installed on the inner side of the fixed tube. During the installation of the liquid storage bottle, the clever cooperation between the retaining rod and the chamfered structure of the retaining groove's inner wall causes the insertion tube to move upward and press the sealing sleeve, enhancing the sealing performance at the connection point. This multi-seal design significantly improves the sealing reliability at the connection between the liquid storage bottle and the aromatherapy diffuser components, even during prolonged operation or when placed on unstable surfaces subject to vibration or tilting. Even under adverse conditions, it effectively prevents liquid leakage. In addition, the transparent observation window and scale design on the side wall of the storage bottle allow users to intuitively monitor the remaining amount of aromatherapy liquid at any time, avoiding the risk of overflow due to excessive addition or the device running idle due to depletion. Multiple rubber strips fixed on the outside of the rotating sleeve provide a comfortable feel and anti-slip effect, making it easy for users to operate. These innovative designs not only eliminate the risk of damage to furniture, floors, or electronic equipment and short circuit safety hazards caused by aromatherapy essential oil leakage, but also significantly enhance the product's market competitiveness and brand reputation by improving product lifespan and user satisfaction, providing users with a truly convenient and reliable aromatherapy experience.

[0026] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0027] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, the orientations used, such as "up" and "down", usually refer to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "left" and "right" usually refer to the left and right shown in the accompanying drawings; "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5A liquid storage structure for an aroma diffuser with a viewing window includes an aroma diffuser component 1. A liquid storage bottle 2 is detachably provided inside the aroma diffuser component 1. An insertion tube 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the liquid storage bottle 2. A fixing tube 4 is provided inside the aroma diffuser component 1. The insertion tube 3 is detachably inserted into the inside of the fixing tube 4. A rotating sleeve 5 is rotatably sleeved on the outside of the fixing tube 4. A diameter reducing frame 6 is fixedly provided inside the rotating sleeve 5. A diameter reducing groove 7 is opened in the diameter reducing groove 7. A matching frame 8 is slidably provided in the diameter reducing groove 7. A sealing ring 9 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the insertion tube 3. A corresponding sealing groove 10 is opened on the inner wall of the fixing tube 4. A sealing sleeve 11 is detachably provided on the inner side of the fixing tube 4. A retention groove 12 is opened on the outer side of the insertion tube 3. A retention rod 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the matching frame 8.

[0029] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to remove the liquid storage bottle 2, first rotate the rotating sleeve 5 in the forward direction, so that the rotating sleeve 5 drives the inner diameter changing frame 6 and the diameter changing groove 7 opened on the inner side of the diameter changing frame 6 to rotate in the forward direction. Since the diameter changing groove 7 is a diameter changing structure design, and the mating frame 8 and the retaining rod 13 do not rotate with it, when the diameter changing groove 7 rotates in the forward direction, the mating frame 8 will gradually drive the retaining rod 13 to move outward, so that one end of the retaining rod 13 gradually slides out of the retaining groove 12. Then, pull the liquid storage bottle 2 downward, so that the liquid storage bottle 2 drives the insertion tube 3 fixedly connected at the top to detach from the fixed tube 4, thereby removing the liquid storage bottle 2. Due to the setting of the hose 17, there will be no rigid interference when removing the liquid storage bottle 2.

[0030] Please see Figures 3-5 As a further implementation of the overall equipment: the side wall of the liquid storage bottle 2 is provided with an observation window 14, which is made of transparent material.

[0031] The observation window 14 has multiple scale bars 15.

[0032] The variable diameter groove 7 has a small inner diameter at one end and a large inner diameter at the other end, and adopts an arc transition structure design in the middle. The two ends of the fitting frame 8 match the internal arc of the variable diameter groove 7.

[0033] Multiple rubber strips 16 are fixedly provided on the outer side of the rotating sleeve 5.

[0034] The aroma diffuser assembly 1 has a hose 17 inside, which passes through the fixed tube 4 and extends into the liquid storage bottle 2.

[0035] Multiple sealing rings 9 and sealing grooves 10 are provided.

[0036] The inner wall of the retaining groove 12 and one end of the retaining rod 13 are both designed with chamfered edges.

[0037] More specifically, when it is necessary to reassemble and connect the liquid storage bottle 2 with the aroma diffuser assembly 1, first insert the bottom end of the hose 17 into the liquid storage bottle 2, then insert the insertion tube 3 from bottom to top into the fixed tube 4, so that the insertion tube 3 abuts against the sealing sleeve 11 set on the inner side of the fixed tube 4. Then, rotate the rotating frame in the opposite direction, which will drive the diameter changing frame 6 and the diameter changing groove 7 opened on the inner side of the diameter changing frame 6 to rotate in the opposite direction. Then, the mating frame 8 will move back to its original position in the diameter changing groove 7, so that the mating frame 8 drives one side of the retaining rod 13 to slide back to its original position. Then, one end of the retaining rod 13 will gradually insert into the retaining groove 12. The chamfered structure design on one end of the retaining rod 13 and one side of the inner wall of the retaining groove 12 allows the retaining rod 13 to move the insertion tube 3 upward through the chamfered structure on the inner side of the retaining groove 12 when one end of the retaining rod 13 is reinserted into the retaining groove 12. This causes the insertion tube 3 to press the sealing sleeve 11 tightly, ensuring the sealing performance at the connection. At the same time, multiple sealing rings 9 set on the outside of the insertion tube 3 will be simultaneously inserted into the corresponding sealing grooves 10, forming a multi-layer sealing structure. Combined with the pressing and sealing of the sealing sleeve 11, this ensures the sealing strength at the connection between the liquid storage bottle 2 and the aromatherapy machine component 1 while enabling convenient disassembly and assembly of the liquid storage bottle 2 without the need for tools.

[0038] In summary, when using or operating the entire device: when it is necessary to remove the liquid storage bottle 2, first rotate the rotating sleeve 5 in the forward direction, so that the rotating sleeve 5 drives the inner diameter changing frame 6 and the diameter changing groove 7 opened on the inner side of the diameter changing frame 6 to rotate in the forward direction. Since the diameter changing groove 7 is a diameter changing structure design, and the mating frame 8 and the retaining rod 13 do not rotate with it, when the diameter changing groove 7 rotates in the forward direction, the mating frame 8 will gradually drive the retaining rod 13 to move outward, so that one end of the retaining rod 13 will gradually slide out of the retaining groove 12. Then, pull the liquid storage bottle 2 downward, so that the liquid storage bottle 2 and the insertion tube 3 fixedly connected at the top will be disengaged from the fixed tube 4, thus removing the liquid storage bottle 2. Due to the setting of the hose 17, there will be no rigid interference when removing the liquid storage bottle 2.

[0039] When it is necessary to reassemble and connect the liquid storage bottle 2 with the aroma diffuser assembly 1, first insert the bottom end of the hose 17 into the liquid storage bottle 2, then insert the insertion tube 3 from bottom to top into the fixed tube 4, so that the insertion tube 3 abuts against the sealing sleeve 11 set on the inner side of the fixed tube 4. Then, rotate the rotating frame in the opposite direction, which will drive the reducing frame 6 and the reducing groove 7 opened on the inner side of the reducing frame 6 to rotate in the opposite direction. Then, the mating frame 8 will move back to its original position in the reducing groove 7, so that the mating frame 8 will drive one side of the retaining rod 13 to slide back to its original position. Then, one end of the retaining rod 13 will gradually insert into the retaining groove 12. The chamfered structure design on one end and one side of the inner wall of the retention groove 12 allows the insertion tube 3 to move upward through the chamfered structure on the inner side of the retention groove 12 when one end of the retention rod 13 is reinserted into the retention groove 12. This causes the insertion tube 3 to press the sealing sleeve 11 tightly, ensuring the sealing performance at the connection. At the same time, multiple sealing rings 9 set on the outside of the insertion tube 3 will be simultaneously inserted into the corresponding sealing grooves 10, forming a multi-layer sealing structure. Combined with the pressing and sealing of the sealing sleeve 11, this allows for convenient disassembly and assembly of the liquid storage bottle 2 without the need for tools, while ensuring the sealing strength at the connection between the liquid storage bottle 2 and the aromatherapy machine component 1.

[0040] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
