Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0023] To make the object, technical means and effect of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. The specific embodiments described here are for explaining the present invention and do not limit the present invention.

[0024] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, the rotary impeller type aroma humidifier 1 according to the present invention includes a humidifier body, a control circuit board 111 provided inside the humidifier body, and an atomization unit 12. The atomization unit 12 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 111.

[0025] On the upper part of the humidifier body, a mist storage chamber communicating with the humidifier body and storing mist and mist water is provided.

[0026] Furthermore, the system includes a mist guide pipe 16 for transporting the mist generated by the atomization unit 12 to the mist storage chamber. The mist guide pipe 16 may be integrally molded with the mist storage chamber, or its upper part may be in communication with the mist storage chamber.

[0027] In the actual design, the mist guide tube 16 may be a hollow tubular structure, or it may be a housing structure that conforms to the external shape of the humidifier body.

[0028] Furthermore, a rotating impeller 18 that can rotate in the axial direction is provided near the fog storage chamber. The rotating impeller 18 has a plurality of water storage blades 181.

[0029] This application does not particularly limit the specific number of water-storage blades 181, and the water-storage blades 181 primarily have the function of storing water.

[0030] The mist storage chamber is provided with a discharge port 173, or a water discharge pipe is connected to the mist storage chamber, so that the condensed mist flows down to the water storage blade 181. The gravity of the water stored in the water storage blade 181 is used to continuously rotate the rotating impeller 18 on its axis.

[0031] Furthermore, the humidifier body is provided with a water intake groove 151 for collecting flowing water, corresponding to the position of the rotating impeller 18.

[0032] The present invention comprises a humidifier body, a control circuit board 111, and an atomizing unit 12, and further includes a mist guide pipe 16 and a mist storage chamber. The condensed mist water is dripped onto a water storage vane 181, and gravity causes the rotating impeller 18 to rotate continuously. As a result, the condensed mist water can be effectively used to drive the rotating impeller 18 during actual use. Consequently, aesthetic appeal is improved, manufacturing costs are reduced, and maintenance is made easier by eliminating the need for an additional pump structure.

[0033] In another embodiment, an atomizing and focusing cylinder 131 is further provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 13 of the humidifier body to improve the spray height.

[0034] The atomizing unit 12 is positioned at the bottom of the atomizing and focusing cylinder 131.

[0035] The upper outlet of the atomizing and focusing cylinder 131 is directed toward the mist guide tube 16.

[0036] An LED light or LED light plate may be provided inside the humidifier body, or an LED light strip 14 may be provided along the outer circumference of the humidifier body.

[0037] The humidifier body includes an outer shell 11, a water storage tank 13 located inside or on top of the outer shell 11, and a top lid 15 located on top of the water storage tank 13.

[0038] The aforementioned water intake groove 151 is provided in the upper cover 15.

[0039] The rotating impeller 18 is positioned on the upper part of the top cover 15.

[0040] The lower part of the mist guide pipe 16 extends through the top cover 15 into the water storage tank 13.

[0041] A water guide cover 17 is provided at the top of the fog guide pipe 16, and the fog storage chamber is formed inside it.

[0042] The upper opening of the mist guide pipe 16 is fitted and connected to the water guide cover 17. A waterproof cover 174 is also provided at the upper opening of the mist guide pipe 16 to prevent mist and mist water from being ejected upward.

[0043] A spray cover 171 is provided correspondingly on the upper part of the water guide cover 17, and the water guide cover 17 and the spray cover 171 may be integrally molded or may be detachably connected.

[0044] The spray cover 171 is provided with a spray nozzle 172.

[0045] The discharge port 173 is provided in the water guide cover 17.

[0046] In the actual design, the discharge port 173 may be provided on both the left and right sides of the water guide cover 17.

[0047] The rotating impeller 18 is rotatably connected to the outside of the water guide cover 17 via a rotating shaft 182.

[0048] The control circuit board 111 and the atomizing unit 12 are located in the internal space between the bottom of the water storage tank 13 and the outer shell 11.

[0049] Furthermore, a water-free detection switch is provided inside the humidifier body, and this water-free detection switch is electrically connected to the control circuit board 111.

[0050] The water intake groove 151 has a long, strip-like structure, and its length corresponds to the diameter of the rotating impeller 18, preventing the water from splashing outwards.

[0051] The mist guide tube 16 has an inverted conical shape, with its dimensions gradually increasing from bottom to top.

[0052] This design involves transporting water ejected by the operation of atomizing pieces to a water guide cover 17, and then allowing it to flow into the water storage blades 181 of the rotating impeller 18 through a discharge port 173 provided on the water guide cover 17. As the amount of water stored on the blades 181 increases, gravity increases, and this acts as a driving force to rotate the rotating impeller 18.

[0053] Simultaneously, the mist generated by the atomizing fragments is released to the outside through the mist outlet 172, and when combined with lighting effects, it achieves an excellent visual viewing effect.

[0054] According to the present invention, the humidifier comprises a humidifier body, a control circuit board 111 and an atomizing unit 12 located inside the humidifier body, a mist guide tube 16 and a mist storage chamber, and is configured to allow condensed mist water to flow down to a water storage blade 181, and to use gravity to continuously rotate the rotating impeller 18 on its axis.

[0055] Furthermore, by providing a water intake groove 151 corresponding to the position of the rotating impeller 18, the flowing water can be efficiently recovered.

[0056] This allows for the effective use of condensed mist during actual use to continuously drive the rotating impeller 18, thereby improving aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, since no additional pump structure is required, manufacturing costs can be reduced and maintenance is easier.

[0057] While embodiments of the present invention have been described above, these do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall all be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
