Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom cabinet technology, and in particular to a mirror cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Current bathroom mirror cabinets use a method of applying an anti-fog film to the back of the lens and then heating it to remove fog. This method is not only slow, but heating the lens may also affect the adhesive and plastic parts of the mirror door, and may also affect the stored beauty products, such as face masks and lipsticks, thus affecting their shelf life. Utility Model Content
[0003] The present invention aims to at least partially solve one of the aforementioned technical problems in the related art. Therefore, the present invention proposes a mirror cabinet.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] The mirror cabinet according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes:
[0006] The cabinet has a mirror door installed on the front.
[0007] A cooling device is installed on the cabinet. The cooling device includes a housing, a fan, a refrigeration module, an atomizer, and a liquid collection bottle. The housing has an air inlet, a cold air outlet, and a cold air channel. The fan is installed at the air inlet. The refrigeration module includes cold-end fins located between the cold air channel and the air inlet. Airflow can pass sequentially through the air inlet, the cold-end fins, the cold air channel, and the cold air outlet. The bottom wall of the cold air channel has a through hole. The liquid collection bottle is installed below the through hole and communicates with the through hole. The atomizer is used to atomize the liquid in the liquid collection bottle.
[0008] The lamp assembly includes a lamp body and a light strip. The lamp body is installed on the outside of the cabinet. An air duct is formed inside the lamp body. The light strip is installed inside the lamp body and located outside the air duct. The cold air outlet is connected to the air duct. An air outlet is opened on the side wall of the air duct, and the airflow can be blown onto the mirror surface of the mirror door through the air outlet.
[0009] The mirror cabinet according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0010] 1. Airflow enters the housing through the air inlet, is cooled by the cold-end fins, and then directed into the air duct of the lamp tube body from the cold air outlet before being blown out from the air outlet onto the mirror surface for defogging. The installation position of the light strip inside the lamp tube body is isolated from the air duct to prevent cold air from blowing into the light strip and affecting it, and also to prevent the light strip from heating the cold air and losing its cooling effect. This utility model utilizes the internal space of the lamp tube body for air guidance, eliminating the need for additional air ducts, resulting in a compact structure, reduced costs, and a simple appearance for the mirror cabinet.
[0011] 2. The bottom wall of the cold air duct has through holes, allowing condensate from the cold-end fins to flow into the duct and then into a collection bottle. This prevents condensate from entering the lamp body. The condensate in the collection bottle is atomized by an atomizer, and the mist diffuses through the through holes into the cold air duct. The fan blows the mist into the duct, and the mist is finally expelled from the outlet and evaporates into the air. This eliminates the need for manual condensate removal, improving the user experience. A program can be designed to periodically atomize and clean the condensate; the atomization and demisting functions do not interfere with each other. The cold air function can also be controlled to automatically activate after atomization to dry the duct, prevent bacterial growth, and achieve self-cleaning. The atomization function can also be used in dry bathroom environments during winter to increase humidity and improve comfort when users are using the toilet or applying makeup.

The cold end face of the cooling chip has a cold end fin 331 located between the cold air channel 313 and the air inlet 311. The airflow can pass through the air inlet 311, the cold end fin 331, the cold air channel 313 and the cold air outlet 312 in sequence. The bottom wall of the cold air channel 313 has a through hole 314. The liquid collection bottle 350 is installed below the through hole 314 and is connected to the through hole 314. The atomizer 340 is used to atomize the liquid in the liquid collection bottle 350.
[0039] The lamp assembly 400 includes a lamp body 410 and a light strip 420. The lamp body 410 is installed on the outside of the cabinet 100. An air duct 411 is formed inside the lamp body 410. The light strip 420 is installed inside the lamp body 410 and located outside the air duct 411. The cold air outlet 312 is connected to the air duct 411. An air outlet 412 is opened on the side wall of the air duct 411. The air outlet 412 is located on the side of the lamp body 410 near the mirror door 200. The airflow can be blown towards the mirror surface of the mirror door 200 through the air outlet 412.
[0040] Working principle: Airflow enters the housing 310 through the air inlet 311, is cooled by the cold end fins 331 to obtain cold air, and is then guided from the cold air outlet 312 into the air duct 411 of the lamp tube body 410, and blown out from the air outlet 412 onto the mirror surface for defogging. The condensate generated by the cold end fins 331 flows into the cold air channel 313 and into the collection bottle 350 through the through hole 314. The condensate in the collection bottle 350 is atomized into water mist by the atomizer 340. The water mist diffuses from the through hole 314 into the cold air channel 313, and the fan 320 blows the water mist into the air duct 411. Finally, the water mist is blown out from the air outlet 412 and evaporates into the air.
[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, a first annular wall 315 and a second annular wall 316 are formed on the housing 310. The first annular wall 315 is located below the through hole 314 and is arranged around the edge of the through hole 314. The collection bottle 350 is detachably connected to the first annular wall 315. The second annular wall 316 is located in the through hole 314, and a water passage space is left between the second annular wall 316 and the edge of the through hole 314. The atomizer 340 is embedded inside the second annular wall 316, and a water-absorbing cotton swab 341 is mounted on the atomizer 340. The water-absorbing cotton swab 341 extends downward to the bottom of the collection bottle 350. Further, the second annular wall 316 is connected to the first annular wall 315 by several spokes. Condensed water flows into the collection bottle 350 through the water space, and the water-absorbing cotton swab 341 is used to absorb the condensed water in the collection bottle 350 and atomize it in the atomizer 340. This structure facilitates the disassembly of the collection bottle 350, which can be removed to add water for use in humidifying indoor environments.
[0042] In some embodiments of this invention, the upper end of the second annular wall 316 is higher than the through hole 314. The second annular wall 316 is slightly higher than the bottom wall of the cold air channel 313 to prevent condensate from flowing onto the atomizer 340 and damaging it.
[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, the inner wall of the first annular wall 315 is provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the bottle mouth of the collection bottle 350 is provided with an external thread.

[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, the housing 310 also has a heat dissipation channel 319, which is separated from the cold air channel 313. The refrigeration module 330 also includes a hot-end fin 332, which is located in the heat dissipation channel 319. The sidewall of the heat dissipation channel 319 is provided with heat dissipation holes, which communicate with the external space. When air is blown into the internal space of the housing 310, it can pass through the hot-end fin 332 and the cold-end fin 331. The heat dissipation channel 319 is separated from the cold air channel 313, so the hot air and cold air do not affect each other. The hot air is blown to the outside through the heat dissipation holes.
[0046] In some embodiments of this utility model, a control board 500 is also included. The housing 310 also has a mounting cavity 510 and a wiring trough 520.
