Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of humidifiers, and more particularly to an anti-tip tank cover. [Background technology]

[0002] When currently available humidifiers boil water to generate steam, the temperature of the water in the tank approaches 100°C. If the humidifier case is accidentally knocked over, the hot water in the tank may spill out of the humidifier, causing burns, posing a hidden safety risk to users during use. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-tip tank cover to solve the drawbacks of existing anti-tip tank covers currently on the market, such as the complicated and tedious assembly process that affects production efficiency, and the fact that the button edge is easily touched by mistake when used outdoors, making the button function easily activated and affecting the user experience. [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is as follows: A tank lid attached to a tank of a humidifier includes an upper lid and a lower lid, and an anti-tip assemblies provided within the upper and lower lids, wherein the bottom of the lower lid is provided with a bottom plate, and the bottom plate is provided with a plurality of intake holes for communicating with the tank, the upper lid has an exhaust part for blowing water vapor within the tank out of the tank lid, and a tank lid gasket is provided between the exhaust part and the lower lid, and the anti-tip assemblies press the tank lid gasket to form a sealed structure between the upper and lower lids.

[0005] Furthermore, the anti-tip assembly includes a magnet provided on the top lid and an iron ball provided on the bottom lid, and the iron ball presses the tank lid gasket so that the tank lid gasket seals the exhaust section.

[0006] Furthermore, the tank lid gasket is provided with a through hole for blowing the water vapor into the exhaust portion.

[0007] Furthermore, the lower lid is provided with a lower lid mounting groove for mounting the iron ball, and the upper lid is provided with an upper lid mounting groove for mounting the magnet.

[0008] Furthermore, the lower cover mounting groove has a notch for allowing the water vapor to enter the lower cover mounting groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower cover further includes a guide plate for guiding the water vapor.

[0010] Furthermore, a plurality of lower lid reinforcing ribs are provided within the lower lid mounting groove to abut against the outer edge surface of the iron ball, and a plurality of upper lid reinforcing ribs are provided within the upper lid mounting groove to abut against the outer edge surface of the magnet.

[0011] Additionally, the top cover further includes a tab fixedly connected to the top cover. [Effects of the Invention]

[0012] The beneficial effects of the tip-proof tank lid provided by this invention are as follows: When the tank lid is attached horizontally to the tank, the anti-tip assembly is reset by gravity. At this time, the air intake hole on the bottom plate is connected to the exhaust port on the top lid, allowing water vapor from the tank to pass through the bottom plate into the tank lid, flow through the exhaust port, and then pass through the top lid and blow out to the outside of the tank lid, thereby satisfying the user's need for normal use of the humidifier to humidify the indoor air. When the humidifier is tilted at a certain angle, the tank lid tilts along with the humidifier, and the anti-tip assembly presses the tank lid gasket under the action of gravity, forming a sealed structure between the top and bottom lids. The air intake hole cannot be connected to the exhaust port on the top lid, effectively preventing hot water from the tank from flowing out of the tank lid through the exhaust port on the top lid. Furthermore, this effectively prevents the hot water in the tank from spilling out of the tank lid when the humidifier is tilted, prevents the user from being burned by the hot water, and increases the safety of the user during use.

[0014] In order to more clearly understand the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be described in more detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0015] 1 to 4, an anti-tip tank lid 100 provided by the present invention is attached to the tank of a humidifier and comprises an upper lid 10, a lower lid 20, and an anti-tip assembly 30 provided within the upper lid 10 and the lower lid 20. A bottom plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the lower lid 20, and the bottom plate 21 is provided with a number of intake holes for communication with the tank. The upper lid 10 has an exhaust port that blows water vapor within the tank out of the tank lid. A tank lid gasket 11 is provided between the exhaust port and the lower lid 20, and the anti-tip assembly 30 presses the tank lid gasket 11 to form a sealed structure between the upper lid 10 and the lower lid 20. When the anti-tip tank lid 100 provided by the present invention is attached horizontally to the tank, the anti-tip assembly 30 returns to its initial state under the action of gravity. At this time, the air intake hole in the bottom plate 21 is connected to the exhaust port in the top cover 10, allowing water vapor from the tank to pass through the bottom plate 21 into the tank cover, flow through the exhaust port, and then pass through the top cover 10 and blow out the tank cover, thereby satisfying the user's need to normally use the humidifier to humidify the indoor air. If the humidifier is tilted at a certain angle, the tank cover will tilt along with the humidifier, and the anti-tip assembly 30 will press the tank cover gasket 11 under the action of gravity, forming a sealed structure between the top cover 10 and the bottom cover 20. The air intake hole cannot be connected to the exhaust port in the top cover 10, thereby effectively preventing hot water from leaking out the tank cover through the exhaust port in the top cover 10. This effectively prevents hot water from leaking out the tank cover when the humidifier is tilted, preventing users from being burned by hot water and improving user safety during use.

[0016] 2 and 4, the anti-tip assembly 30 provided by the present invention includes a magnet 31 mounted on the top cover 10 and an iron ball 32 mounted on the bottom cover 20. The iron ball 32 presses against the tank cover gasket 11, causing the tank cover gasket 11 to seal the exhaust port. Therefore, when the tank cover is attached horizontally to the tank, the gravity of the iron ball 32 is greater than the attractive force of the magnet 31, causing the iron ball 32 to return to its initial position. At this time, the air intake hole in the bottom plate 21 is connected to the exhaust port of the top cover 10, allowing water vapor in the tank to pass through the bottom plate 21 into the tank cover, flow through the exhaust port, and then pass through the top cover 10 to be blown out of the tank cover, thereby satisfying the user's need to use the humidifier normally to humidify the air in the room. If the humidifier is tilted at a certain angle, the tank lid will tilt along with the humidifier, and at this time, the iron ball 32 will press the tank lid gasket 11 due to the action of gravity and the magnetic attraction of the magnet 31, forming a sealed structure between the top lid 10 and the bottom lid 20. The air intake hole cannot be connected to the exhaust port of the top lid 10, which effectively prevents hot water in the tank from passing through the exhaust port of the top lid 10 and leaking out of the tank lid. This effectively prevents hot water in the tank from leaking out of the tank lid when the humidifier is tilted, prevents users from being burned by hot water, and increases user safety during use.

[0017] 2 and 4, the tank lid gasket 11 provided by the present invention is provided with a through-hole for blowing water vapor into the exhaust port. Water vapor that enters the bottom lid 20 through the intake hole in the bottom plate 21 can effectively flow through the through-hole, enter the exhaust port of the top lid 10, and then blow out of the top lid 10 through the exhaust port. The bottom lid 20 provided by the present invention is also provided with a bottom lid mounting groove 22 for mounting the iron ball 32, and the top lid 10 is provided with a top lid mounting groove 12 for mounting the magnet 31. Placing the iron ball 32 in the bottom lid mounting groove 22 and the magnet 31 in the top lid mounting groove 12 effectively ensures the stability of the bottom lid 20 and the magnet 31 when mounted on the top lid 10, and also ensures the positioning accuracy between the iron ball 32 and the magnet 31, thereby ensuring that the magnetic attraction of the magnet 31 can act on the iron ball 32. Furthermore, when the humidifier is tilted at a certain angle, the tank lid tilts along with the humidifier, and the iron ball 32 presses the tank lid gasket 11 by the action of gravity and the magnetic attraction of the magnet 31, forming a sealed structure between the top lid 10 and the bottom lid 20. The intake hole cannot be connected to the exhaust port of the top lid 10, which effectively prevents the hot water in the tank from flowing out of the tank through the exhaust port of the top lid 10.

[0018] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, in the embodiment provided by the present invention, the bottom cover mounting groove 22 has a notch for guiding water vapor into the bottom cover mounting groove 22. The bottom cover 20 also has a guide plate for guiding water vapor. The guide plate in the bottom cover 20 effectively guides water vapor that enters the bottom cover 20 through the intake holes in the bottom plate 21, passes through the notch in the bottom cover mounting groove 22, and is guided into the bottom cover mounting groove 22. After flowing through the through-holes in the tank cover gasket 11, the water vapor enters the exhaust port in the top cover 10, and is then blown out of the tank cover. This effectively limits the deviation of water vapor flow within the tank cover and ensures the accuracy of water vapor blowing out of the tank cover. Furthermore, the bottom plate 21 provided by the present invention is made of stainless steel, which effectively prevents the bottom plate 21 from rusting due to water vapor inside the tank.

[0019] As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the bottom cover mounting groove 22 of the present invention is provided with a plurality of bottom cover reinforcing ribs that abut against the outer peripheral surface of the iron ball 32, and the top cover mounting groove 12 is provided with a plurality of top cover reinforcing ribs that abut against the outer peripheral surface of the magnet 31. The bottom cover reinforcing ribs provided in the bottom cover mounting groove 22 and the top cover reinforcing ribs provided in the top cover mounting groove 12 effectively increase the strength of the top cover mounting groove 12 and the bottom cover mounting groove 22 and further ensure the stability of the magnet 31 mounted in the top cover mounting groove 12 and the iron ball 32 mounted in the bottom cover mounting groove 22. Furthermore, if the humidifier is tilted at a certain angle, the tank cover tilts with the humidifier, effectively limiting the deviation caused by the iron ball 32 pressing against the tank cover gasket 11 due to the action of gravity and the magnetic attractive force of the magnet 31. This further ensures the positioning accuracy between the iron ball 32 and the magnet 31, ensuring that the magnetic attractive force of the magnet 31 can act on the iron ball 32. Moreover, the top cover 10 provided by the present invention further includes a knob 13 fixedly connected to the top cover 10. The top cover 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom cover 20, and the user can attach or remove the tank cover from the tank simply by turning the knob 13 provided on the top cover 10. This effectively increases the convenience for the user in attaching or removing the tank cover, and further enhances the user's experience during use.

[0020] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
