Detailed Implementation
[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0018] This utility model discloses a humidifying container structure, comprising a container body with a water tank supported by a water tank support 6 and a water tank support 7. The water tank has an inlet 2, a level gauge 3, a humidifying electrode 4, and an outlet 5. The top of the water tank is connected to a steam spray pipe 1. The container body also includes a chiller unit 8 and a controller 9. A door-end humidity sensor and a central humidity sensor are both connected to the controller 9. The water tank support 6 is located on both sides of the bottom of the water tank, and the water tank support 7 is located between the two supports. The humidifying electrode 4, the chiller unit 8, and the controller 9 are connected. The door-end humidity sensor is humidity sensor 11. The central humidity sensor is humidity sensor 10.
[0019] The structural innovation of this utility model lies in the following: the steam nozzle 1 is a food-grade stainless steel pipe with a diameter of 15mm. Several steam injection holes with a diameter of 3mm-5mm are opened on the steam nozzle 1, with a spacing of 15cm-20cm between the holes. The steam nozzle 1 is arranged along the air outlet of the chiller unit 8, 5cm-8cm away from the air outlet. The steam injection direction is consistent with the airflow direction, accelerating steam diffusion with the help of the airflow from the chiller (without additional power consumption).
[0020] The complementary innovation of this utility model lies in: without changing the original container structure, it complements the traditional marine refrigeration unit by cleverly utilizing the space of the bottom air outlet of the marine refrigeration unit to customize the humidification module, and utilizing the space on both sides of the refrigeration unit inside the container to place the controller 9.
[0021] Before humidification, the water tank is fixed by water tank support 1 6 and water tank support 2 7. Clean water is injected through water inlet 2. The level gauge 3 monitors the water level in real time and reminds you to add water if it is low.
[0022] During the humidity monitoring phase, the humidity sensor at the door and the humidity sensor in the middle of the cabinet collect data synchronously, and the data is transmitted to the controller 9. The controller 9 compares the actual humidity with the target value, and if it is lower than the target, it triggers humidification.
[0023] During humidification, the humidifying electrode 4 inside the water tank is energized and heats up, causing the water to evaporate and generate steam, which is then sent into the chamber through the steam nozzle 1. The air cooler starts simultaneously, and the airflow carries the steam to diffuse, with the lower air outlet carrying out water vapor, further increasing the humidity.
[0024] When both sensors detect that the humidity level meets the standard, controller 9 cuts off the power to humidifying electrode 4 and stops humidification; the air cooler adjusts its status according to cooling demand. When the container is not in use or is being cleaned, the drain outlet is opened to empty the water tank for easy maintenance.
[0025] This invention achieves uniform humidity control throughout the refrigerated container, eliminating humidity deviations between the edge areas (near the door) and the core storage area, and preventing goods from drying out (e.g., wilting of fruits and vegetables) or becoming moldy due to excessive moisture. It employs a dual-point synchronous data acquisition structure—a humidity sensor at the door and one in the center of the container—combined with the humidity controller's linkage logic, forming a control process of "dual-point monitoring - centralized analysis - precise triggering." This invention provides dual-point coverage of both the edge and core areas. The controller can combine data from both points to determine the overall humidity status, accurately matching actual needs when triggering humidification commands, avoiding false or missed triggers. It is particularly suitable for goods sensitive to humidity uniformity, such as fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Based on the different humidity tolerance ranges of various goods (e.g., leafy greens require 85%-90% humidity, root vegetables require 70%-75% humidity), partitions can be installed in the middle of the container for zoned management, achieving dual-humidity, multi-storage modes.
