Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air humidification technology, and specifically provides a humidifier. Background Technology

[0002] Humidifiers are commonly used devices for regulating ambient humidity in various settings such as homes, offices, and industries, and their performance directly affects the user experience. A typical humidifier consists of an atomizing chamber and an atomizer within that chamber, with the mist outlet located at the top of the chamber.

[0003] However, in actual operation, the water mist generated by the atomizer will diffuse freely in the atomization chamber. Some of the water mist may condense into water droplets on the side wall of the atomization chamber due to airflow disturbance, and cannot effectively reach the vicinity of the mist outlet at the top of the atomization chamber. As a result, the fan cannot fully blow the water mist generated by atomization out of the mist outlet, resulting in low mist output efficiency of the humidifier. Utility Model Content

[0004] One objective of this invention is to solve the problem of low mist output efficiency in humidifiers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a humidifier, comprising:

[0006] The body defines a water storage chamber and an atomizing chamber communicating with the water storage chamber, and the body is provided with a mist outlet at the top of the atomizing chamber;

[0007] An atomizer is disposed at the bottom or bottom side of the atomizing chamber and is used to atomize the water inside the atomizer;

[0008] A water mist guiding component is disposed inside the atomizing chamber and fixedly connected to or integrally formed with the body. The water mist guiding component extends upward from the atomizer to the top of the atomizing chamber to guide the water mist generated by the atomizer to the top of the atomizing chamber.

[0009] A fan is used to blow water mist from the top of the atomizing chamber out of the mist outlet.

[0014] Optionally, the opening faces away from the partition.

[0015] Optionally, the atomizing chamber has a side plate opposite to the partition, and the ratio of the distance between the partition and the side plate to the closest distance between the water mist guiding member and the side plate is selected from any value from 2 to 6.

[0016] Optionally, the water mist guiding component is arranged vertically and aligned with the atomizer.

[0017] Optionally, the ratio of the height of the water mist guiding component to the height of the atomizing chamber is selected from any value between 0.4 and 0.8.

[0018] Optionally, the humidifier may also include:

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0042] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

For example, unless otherwise specified, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing" can specifically refer to any feasible connection form such as bolt connection, screw connection, welding, insertion, riveting, fusion welding, or snap-fit.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the humidifier 001 includes a body 100, an atomizer 200, a water mist guiding component 300, and a fan 400.

[0044] The device body 100 defines a water storage chamber 110 and an atomizing chamber 120 communicating with the water storage chamber 110. A mist outlet 121 is provided at the top of the atomizing chamber 120. An atomizer 200 is disposed at the bottom or side of the atomizing chamber 120 to atomize the water within the atomizing chamber 120. A water mist guiding component 300 is disposed within the atomizing chamber 120 and is fixedly connected to or integrally formed with the device body 100. The water mist guiding component 300 extends upward from the atomizer 200 to the top of the atomizing chamber 120 to guide the water mist generated by the atomizer 200 to the top of the atomizing chamber 120. A fan 400 is used to blow the water mist from the top of the atomizing chamber 120 out through the mist outlet 121.

[0045] Those skilled in the art will understand that, during actual operation, the water mist generated by the atomizer 200 will freely diffuse within the atomization chamber 120. Some of the water mist may settle to the bottom of the atomization chamber 120 due to gravity, or condense into water droplets on the side wall 123 of the atomization chamber 120 due to airflow disturbance, failing to effectively reach the vicinity of the mist outlet 121 at the top of the atomization chamber 120. This invention improves the mist output efficiency of the humidifier 001 by providing a water mist guiding component 300 in the atomization chamber 120, which extends upwards from the atomizer 200 to the top of the atomization chamber 120. Finally, the fan 400 blows the water mist from the top of the atomization chamber 120 out through the mist outlet 121.

[0046] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, at least a portion of the cross-section of the water mist guiding component 300 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped cross-section can reduce airflow resistance, prevent turbulence from occurring at the corners of the component during the guiding process, and further reduce water mist adhesion loss.

[0047] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, the cross-section of the water mist guiding member 300 is C-shaped and has an opening 310.

[0048] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, an upper plate 311 is provided at one end of the water mist guiding member 300 near the mist outlet 121, which, together with the C-shaped sidewall of the water mist guiding member 300, defines the opening 310. The upper plate 311 can block the direct diffusion of water mist from the top of the water mist guiding member 300, forcing the water mist to flow out only from the opening 310, preventing the water mist from dispersing to other areas on the top of the atomizing chamber 120 without being gathered, further improving the concentration of water mist near the side plate, and enhancing the mist-carrying efficiency of the fan 400.

[0049] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the opening 310 faces away from the partition 130. That is, the opening 310 faces the front side of the humidifier 001, and the front side of the opening 310 is the side plate 122 of the atomizing chamber 120. The water mist guiding component 300 guides the water mist upward, and the water mist moves forward from the opening 310. Then, the water mist is blocked by the side plate 122 of the atomizing chamber 120. At the same time, the fan 400 drives the airflow in the atomizing chamber 120, thereby driving the water mist to move upward along the side plate 122, and finally spraying it out from the mist outlet 121. The opening 310 faces the side plate 122 on the front side of the atomizing chamber 120. When the water mist moves forward from the opening 310, it is blocked by the side plate 122, forming an upward guiding and lateral blocking mist gathering effect, so that the water mist gathers below the mist outlet 121, which is convenient for the fan 400 to carry out efficiently.

[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the atomizing chamber 120 and the water storage chamber 110 are arranged sequentially along the front-back direction of the humidifier 001 and separated by a partition 130, and the water mist guiding component 300 is arranged on the partition 130.

[0051] Continue reading Figure 4 In some embodiments of this invention, the atomizing chamber 120 has a side plate 122 opposite to the partition 130. The ratio of the distance between the partition 130 and the side plate 122 to the closest distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the side plate 122 can be selected from any value from 2 to 6. For example, the ratio of the distance between the partition 130 and the side plate 122 to the closest distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the side plate 122 can be any feasible value such as 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

[0052] Furthermore, the ratio of the distance between the partition 130 and the side plate 122 to the closest distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the side plate 122 can be selected from any value from 3.5 to 5.5. For example, the ratio of the distance between the partition 130 and the side plate 122 to the closest distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the side plate 122 can be any feasible value such as 3.5, 4, 4.5, 4.8, and 5.

[0053] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water mist guiding component 300 is arranged vertically and aligned with the atomizer 200 to ensure that the water mist is guided as soon as it is generated, reducing initial diffusion loss, and ensuring that the water mist generated by the atomizer 200 moves vertically upward, with the shortest path and the least loss.

[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, the ratio of the height of the water mist guiding component 300 to the height of the atomizing chamber 120 is selected from any value between 0.4 and 0.8.

[0055] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, an air supply duct 150 extending upward is defined within the body 100, and the air outlet 151 of the air supply duct 150 is located at the top of the air supply duct 150. An atomizer 200 is disposed on one side of the air supply duct 150 and spaced apart from the air supply duct 150 at the bottom or bottom side of the atomization chamber 120, for atomizing the water within the atomization chamber 120.

[0056] Those skilled in the art will understand that this utility model can simultaneously provide a water mist guiding component 300 and an air supply duct 150 in the atomizing chamber 120. The water mist guiding component 300 can enable the water mist generated by the atomizer 200 to efficiently reach the mist outlet 121 at the top of the atomizing chamber 120, and the air supply duct 150 can directionally guide the airflow to act on the water mist at the top of the atomizing chamber 120, thereby blowing the water mist gathered at the top of the atomizing chamber 120 out from the mist outlet 121, effectively improving the mist output efficiency of the atomizer 200.

[0057] like Figures 7 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the atomizing cavity 120 has a rectangular cross-section, and the air supply duct 150 is disposed at one end of the rectangular length direction of the atomizing cavity 120, forming a gap with the side wall 123 at one end of the atomizing cavity 120. The gap can prevent the airflow from directly impacting the side wall 123, resulting in pressure loss, and at the same time allow the airflow to diffuse evenly along the gap to the top of the atomizing cavity 120, forming a planar airflow rather than a localized strong airflow, which makes it easier to contact the water mist that accumulates over a large area.

[0058] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water mist guiding component 300 and the air supply duct 150 are spaced apart on the partition 130.

[0059] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the air outlet 151 includes a first air outlet 1511 facing away from the partition 130.

[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the atomizing chamber 120 has a side plate 122 opposite to the partition 130, and the distance between the first air outlet 1511 and the side plate 122 can be selected from any value from 4mm to 10mm. For example, the distance between the first air outlet 1511 and the side plate 122 can be any feasible value such as 4mm, 5mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm.

[0061] Furthermore, the distance between the first air outlet 1511 and the side panel 122 can be selected from any value between 5.5mm and 9.5mm. For example, the distance between the first air outlet 1511 and the side panel 122 can be any feasible value among 5.5mm, 6.5mm, 7.5mm, 7.9mm and 9.5mm.

[0062] Those skilled in the art will understand that the airflow blowing out of the first air outlet 1511 towards the side plate 122 of the atomizing chamber 120 will be blocked by the side plate 122. The side plate 122 will disperse the airflow to avoid water mist splashing or local negative pressure caused by strong airflow in one direction. The dispersed airflow is diffused and can more evenly cover the water mist on the top of the atomizing chamber 120, driving more water mist to be sprayed out from the mist outlet 121, rather than just taking away local water mist.

[0063] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the air outlet 151 of the air supply duct 150 further includes a second air outlet 1512, which is located on the side of the air supply duct 150 away from the water mist guiding component 300.

[0064] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the distance between the second air outlet 1512 and the side wall 123 of the opposite atomizing chamber 120 can be selected from any value from 4mm to 10mm. For example, the distance between the second air outlet 1512 and the side wall 123 of the opposite atomizing chamber 120 can be any feasible value such as 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 9mm and 10mm.

[0065] Furthermore, the distance between the second air outlet 1512 and the side wall 123 of the opposite atomizing chamber 120 can be selected from any value from 5 mm to 8 mm. For example, the distance between the second air outlet 1512 and the side wall 123 of the opposite atomizing chamber 120 can be any value from 5 mm, 5.5 mm, 6.5 mm and 7.5 mm.

[0066] Similarly, the second air outlet 1512 faces the side wall 123 of the atomizing chamber 120. The airflow blown out from the second air outlet 1512 will be blocked by the side wall 123 of the atomizing chamber 120, and the side wall 123 will disperse the airflow.

[0067] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a water outlet 131 is provided at the bottom of the partition 130 to connect the atomizing chamber 120 and the water storage chamber 110. The water outlet 131 is located between the water mist guiding component 300 and the air supply duct 150 to prevent the water flow from directly impacting the atomizer 200 when replenishing water.

[0068] like Figures 7 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the ratio of the distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the air supply duct 150 to the length of the cross-section of the atomizing chamber 120 can be selected from any value between 0.3 and 0.5. For example, the ratio of the distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the air supply duct 150 to the length of the cross-section of the atomizing chamber 120 can be any feasible value among 0.3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, and 0.5.

[0069] Furthermore, the ratio of the distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the air supply duct 150 to the length of the cross-section of the atomizing chamber 120 can be selected from any value between 0.38 and 0.44. For example, the ratio of the distance between the water mist guiding member 300 and the air supply duct 150 to the length of the cross-section of the atomizing chamber 120 can be any feasible value among 0.38, 0.39, 0.41, 0.43, and 0.44.

[0070] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the humidifier 001 can be a humidifying heater. The body 100 defines a heating chamber 140, which contains a heating device (not shown in the figure). A hot air outlet 180 is provided on the front side of the heating chamber 140. Furthermore, the air inlet of the fan 400 is connected to the heating chamber 140, so that hot air drives water mist to be sprayed out from the mist outlet 121. Hot air has low density and good fluidity, and compared with room temperature air, it can more efficiently drive the water mist diffusion, further improving the humidification range and uniformity.

[0071] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the body 100 is provided with a water return slope 160 on the outside of the mist outlet 121. The height of the water return slope 160 gradually decreases towards the mist outlet 121, so that the water generated by the water mist at the mist outlet 121 flows back to the atomizing chamber 120 through the mist outlet 121, thereby preventing the water mist from condensing near the mist outlet 121 and forming liquid water droplets that fall onto the outside of the humidifier body 100, thus improving the environmental hygiene of the humidifier 001.

[0072] Continue reading Figure 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, the vertical cross-sectional projection of the return slope 160 is part of a circular arc. The circular arc surface has no sharp edges, which can prevent water droplets from remaining on the slope, while sharp edges are prone to water accumulation, ensuring that the water flows smoothly back along the circular arc.

[0073] In some embodiments of this invention, the radius of the arc can be selected from any value between 5cm and 20cm. For example, the radius of the arc can be any feasible value among 5cm, 8cm, 11cm, 15cm, and 20cm.

[0074] Furthermore, the radius of the arc can be selected from any value between 10cm and 15cm. For example, the radius of the arc can be any feasible value such as 10cm, 12cm, 14cm, and 17cm.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the shape of the mist outlet 121 is elongated. The elongated mist outlet 121 allows the water mist to diffuse evenly along the length direction, avoiding the problem of excessive water mist in some areas of the circular mist outlet 121, and improving the uniformity of indoor humidification.

[0076] like Figures 9 to 12 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water tank 600 includes a tank body 610 and a drainage assembly 620, wherein the tank body 610 defines a water storage cavity 110 inside. The drainage assembly 620 includes a drainage member 621 detachably connected to the bottom of the tank body 610. The drainage member 621 has a drainage hole 6211, and a water passage hole 6212 penetrating the peripheral wall of the drainage hole 6211 is provided at the end of the drainage member 621 away from the tank body 610, so that water is discharged through the water passage hole 6212 when the end of the drainage member 621 away from the tank body 610 abuts against a target object.

[0077] As will be understood by those skilled in the art, by providing a water passage hole 6212 through the peripheral wall of the drainage hole 6211 at the end of the drainage component 621 away from the tank 610, the drainage component 621 can effectively abut against the bottom of the receiving cavity 170, thereby providing stable support for the water tank 600. At the same time, when the end of the drainage component 621 away from the tank 610 abuts against the target object, water is discharged through the water passage hole 6212, thus improving the support stability of the water tank 600 while ensuring the drainage function.

[0078] like Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water passage 6212 consists of multiple downward-facing opening slots 6213, so that multiple support structures 6214 are formed at the end of the drainage member 621 away from the tank 610. The support structure 6214 formed in the area between the opening slots 6213 can fully abut against the bottom of the receiving cavity 170, greatly improving the support stability of the water tank 600.

[0079] like Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, multiple opening slots 6213 are evenly distributed around the drain hole 6211, so that the supporting force is evenly distributed along the circumference of the drain component 621, thus preventing the water tank 600 from tilting.

[0080] Continue reading Figure 12In some embodiments of this utility model, a reinforcing rib 6215 is provided on the side of the support structure 6214 facing the drainage hole 6211. The reinforcing rib 6215 can prevent the support structure 6214 from deforming under long-term pressure, extend the service life of the drainage component 621, and ensure that the stability of the support does not decrease with the time of use.

[0081] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom of the housing 610 is provided with a water outlet 611 communicating with the water storage chamber 110, and the drainage assembly 620 is detachably connected to the water outlet 611 by a threaded connection. The user can easily disassemble the drainage assembly 620 to facilitate cleaning the drain hole 6211 or replacing damaged parts.

[0082] Continue reading Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments of the present invention, the drainage assembly 620 further includes a one-way valve core 622 arranged along the extending direction of the drainage hole 6211. The one-way valve core 622 has a cover 6221 for closing the drainage hole 6211 and a push rod 6222 for pushing the cover 6221 to open the drainage hole 6211. The drainage assembly 620 also includes a return spring 623 sleeved on the push rod 6222 to keep the cover 6221 in the state of closing the drainage hole 6211.

[0083] like Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the outer peripheral surface of the drainage component 620 is provided with anti-slip texture 624. When disassembling the drainage component 620, the anti-slip texture 624 can increase the friction between the hand and the component, prevent slipping, and improve the convenience of maintenance operations.

[0084] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water tank 600 may further include a baffle 630 disposed on the top of the tank body 610, and at least a portion of the baffle 630 is located on the lateral outer side of the tank body 610. A fixing structure 640 is provided on the side of the baffle 630 facing the tank body 610 for fixing the water tank 600 to a component adapted to the water tank 600, thereby improving the stability of the water tank 600 after installation. At the same time, the baffle 630 protrudes from the side wall 650 of the tank body 610, increasing the lateral contact area between the water tank 600 and the receiving cavity 170, and preventing the water tank 600 from swaying left and right within the receiving cavity 170.

[0085] Continue reading Figure 9 and Figure 10In some embodiments of this invention, the baffle 630 is arranged around the side wall 650 of the tank 610. This circumferential design ensures balanced force distribution in all directions, further preventing swaying. Additionally, the user can remove the water tank 600 from the receiving cavity 170 by gripping the baffle 630.

[0086] In some embodiments of this utility model, the width of the baffle 630 protruding from the side wall 650 of the housing 610 can be selected from any value from 10mm to 50mm. For example, the width of the baffle 630 protruding from the side wall 650 of the housing 610 can be any feasible value among 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm and 50mm.

[0087] Furthermore, the width of the baffle 630 protruding from the side wall 650 of the housing 610 can be selected from any value between 25mm and 45mm. For example, the width of the baffle 630 protruding from the side wall 650 of the housing 610 can be any feasible value among 25mm, 28mm, 35mm, 38mm, and 42mm.

[0088] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the fixing structure 640 can be a plug-in structure.

[0089] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plug-in structure is symmetrically arranged in the transverse direction of the housing 610.

[0090] In some embodiments of the present invention, the humidifier heater may include any of the above-mentioned water tank 600 and a heating device that heats the air by natural convection, and the body 100 further defines a receiving cavity 170 for accommodating the water tank 600.

[0091] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a push rod 171 is provided at the bottom of the receiving cavity 170, and the water tank 600 is detachably disposed in the receiving cavity 170. The push rod 171 abuts against the push rod 6222 to push the cover 6221 to open the drain hole 6211. When the water tank 600 is placed into the receiving cavity 170, the push rod 171 automatically pushes the push rod 6222 to open the drain hole 6211, eliminating the need for manual switching and improving ease of use; at the same time, it ensures the precise alignment of the water tank 600 and the receiving cavity 170 (the push rod 171 and the push rod 6222 are aligned), avoiding water leakage caused by installation deviation.

[0092] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the water tank 600 is only connected to the outside through the outlet 611. That is to say, except for the outlet 611, all other parts of the water tank 600 are sealed. In this way, when water is discharged downwards from the water tank 600 through the outlet 611, the water flows downwards from the water storage chamber 110 through the drain hole 6211 and the water passage hole 6212 of the drain assembly 620, into the bottom of the receiving chamber 170. The water then flows into the atomizing chamber 120 where the atomizer 200 is located through the water passage 131 formed on the partition 130, thereby atomizing the water. The atomizer 200 can be a mesh atomizer, which is a device that achieves atomization based on high-frequency vibration mesh technology. It is a common type of household atomizer. Its core feature is that the high-frequency vibration of the mesh directly disperses the liquid into tiny droplets.

[0093] Those skilled in the art will understand that mesh atomizers have certain requirements regarding water level; the water level cannot be too high, otherwise it may affect atomization efficiency. In this embodiment, the water level is controlled by the drainage component 620 on the water tank 600. In the vertical direction, the height difference between the top of the opening slot 6213 and the atomizer 200 is the water level control height. Since the water tank 600 is in a sealed state, when water is released from the bottom of the water tank 600, the water level in the receiving cavity 170 gradually rises. When the water overflows the top of the opening slot 6213, the water in the water tank 600 stops flowing out, thereby controlling the water level height.

[0094] In summary, this utility model provides a humidifier 001, a matching water tank 600, and a humidifying heater. In the humidifier 001, a mesh atomizer atomizes water, and a water mist guiding component 300 (vertically aligned with the atomizer 200, C-shaped open with an upper plate 311) reduces water mist settling and adhesion loss, guiding the water mist to the top of the atomizing chamber 120; a fan 400 or an air supply duct 150 (air outlet 151, in conjunction with a side plate 122, disperses the airflow) blows the collected water mist out from the elongated mist outlet 121, and the return slope 160 of the mist outlet 121 prevents dripping backflow. The water tank 600, through a drainage component 620 (water passage 6212 serves both drainage and support, and a one-way valve core 622 controls the switch), and in conjunction with the receiving chamber 170 and the top rod 171, achieves water supply upon installation; the baffle and plug-in structure provide stable positioning, and the height of the opening slot 6213 is adapted to the optimal water level of the atomizer 200. The fan 400 in the humidifier heater draws in hot air to drive water mist, combining humidification and heating, and improving the water mist diffusion efficiency.
