AI Technical Summary
Existing fans do not effectively adjust the discharge of mist to provide appropriate cooling based on environmental conditions.
A sensor for the degree of wetness is integrated into the fan to adjust the mist discharge, allowing for optimal moisture replenishment and humidity control.
The sensor enables effective cooling by adjusting mist discharge to maintain optimal humidity levels, enhancing cooling efficiency.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a fan that cools by discharging mist while adjusting the amount.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0002] To provide a fan that discharges an appropriate amount of mist. Means for Solving the Problems
[0003] A sensor for the degree of wetness is provided on the front surface of the fan to adjust the amount of mist. Effects of the Invention
[0004] It becomes one means to obtain a cooling effect. Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0005] In a fan that discharges mist, a sensor for the degree of wetness is provided on the front surface to adjust the spraying amount.
[0006] Basically, the spraying amount is such that moisture is replenished by the mist by the amount that has evaporated. However, immediately after starting or when the sensor gets extremely wet for some reason, it is conceivable to set it to medium level and connect it once.
[0007] It is also conceivable to adjust the level of humidity by setting it manually or by placing the sensor where it is likely to be hit by the spray and using the fact that the spraying can be suppressed conversely.
[0008] There are also things that can simply read the humidity by a change in color (such as cobalt chloride). (When it is desired to detect quantitatively, such as passing a fiberscope through paper.)
[0009] It is conceivable to install a long, swaying paper equipped with a conductivity sensor on the front surface of the fan to obtain the degree of humidity and its change (the speed of the difference between wetting and evaporation) (cotton, polyester, etc. are also possible).
[0010] For water supply, a tank can be placed or a tube can be extended from the water supply. For power supply, there are a cord, a battery, a battery, etc.
[0011] The mist-generating unit can be independently attached to any fan (since it's lightweight except for the water tank, it can be clipped on, etc.).
[0012] The evaporation rate (cooling capacity) is likely highest when the material is semi-dry rather than completely wet. Measuring temperature and humidity at multiple locations and bringing the material to the optimal humidity level near the body could also be considered.
Claims
1. A fan equipped with a sensor on the front that detects changes in humidity levels and adjusts the amount of mist it emits.
2. A fluttering object that senses the degree of humidity, located in front of the misting device.
3. A device that combines a misting element with a sensor to detect the resulting level of humidity.
