Detailed description of the invention
Below with reference to the accompanying drawings and describe the present invention in detail in conjunction with the embodiments.It should be noted that, when not conflicting, the embodiment in the application and the feature in embodiment can combine mutually.
As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the water tank of the embodiment of the present invention comprises tank body 11, has the float assembly 2 of float 22 and float protective case 13.
Wherein, tank body 11 is provided with float assembly installation portion.Float assembly 2 is articulated in float assembly installation portion.Float protective case 13 covers at the top of float assembly 2.By arranging float protective case 13, the problem that the float assembly caused because of the maloperation of user lost efficacy can be avoided.
As shown in Figure 2, in the present embodiment, float assembly 2 relatively tank body 11 is arranged rotationally.Particularly, float assembly installation portion is included in the axis hole that the sidewall of tank body 11 and spaced walls are arranged respectively, and float assembly 2 comprises the pivotal axis be connected with axis hole pivotable, thus tank body 11 is rotatable relatively to make float assembly 2.
Preferably, float protective case 13 has limiting section, and limiting section is for limiting the end position of float 22 upward movement of float assembly 2.During this is arranged, the float 22 that automatically can control float assembly 2 rotates in a certain angular range, and does not need artificially float assembly 2 to be returned to free state when float assembly 2 inordinate rotation causes stuck.
As shown in Figure 4, in embodiments of the invention, float protective case 13 comprises cover body upper wall 131, faceshield side wall 132 and convex edge 133.Cover body upper wall 131 and faceshield side wall 132 form the activity space of float assembly 2 in float protective case 13.Convex edge 133 extends from faceshield side wall 132 bottom to the outside away from activity space.Wherein, convex edge 133 and the connecting portion of faceshield side wall 132 are as limiting section.Certainly, by arranging the size and shape of cover body upper wall 131, faceshield side wall 132 and convex edge 133, limiting section also can be cover body upper wall 131 and/or faceshield side wall 132.
In the present embodiment, preferably, faceshield side wall 132 is U-shaped sidewall.The opening of U-shaped sidewall is towards float assembly installation portion.In the alternate embodiment that the present invention does not provide, faceshield side wall 132 can also be set to curved wall, the opening of curved wall is towards float assembly installation portion.
As shown in Figure 4, further preferably, being set to float 22 and cannot passing through between the float assembly 2 under cover body upper wall 131 and free state.Above-mentioned design feature, can ensure that user cannot stretch into water tank 1 inside and be taken out by float 22, thus avoid the problem that float assembly 2 lost efficacy.
As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, in embodiments of the invention, float assembly 2 also comprises body 21 and roller 23.Wherein, body 21 has aforesaid pivoted axle, and one end of body 21 is provided with float installation portion, and the other end of body 21 is provided with roller attachment portion; Float 22 is arranged at float installation portion; Roller 23 is arranged at roller attachment portion; Float assembly 2 is installed on float assembly installation portion by pivotal axis.
As shown in Figure 3, in embodiments of the invention, water tank 1 also comprises radiator filler cap 12.Preferably, float protective case 13 and radiator filler cap 12 are wholely set.Above-mentioned structure design, can be convenient to make.Certainly, in the embodiment do not provided, float protective case 13 and radiator filler cap 12 split can also be arranged.
In the present embodiment, preferably, float protective case 13 is connected with radiator filler cap 12 by convex edge 133.
As shown in Figures 3 to 5, the water tank of the embodiment of the present invention also comprises the liquid level switch assembly 3 in the outside of the upper end being arranged at water tank.Liquid level switch assembly 3 has liquid level switch 31.Liquid level switch 31 has the opening be separated with roller 23 under the closed condition and the full state of water compressed mutually with roller 23 under the full state of non-water, and liquid level switch 31 sends unlatching settling signal in the on state.
Embodiments of the invention additionally provide a kind of dehumidifier, and dehumidifier comprises above-mentioned water tank 1, mainboard and compressor.Mainboard is electrically connected with liquid level switch 31 and compressor respectively, in order to the unlatching settling signal of receiving liquid bit switch 31, controls the stopping of compressor subsequently.
The dehumidifier of the embodiment of the present invention also comprises telltale.Telltale is provided with the full display lamp of water, the full display lamp of water is electrically connected with mainboard, after mainboard receives the unlatching settling signal of liquid level switch 31, controls the full display lamp flicker of water.
Fig. 4 shows the sectional structure schematic diagram of water tank under float assembly is in free state.As shown in Figure 4, now float assembly 2 is in free state.
Water tank 1 be in water tank inside do not have water or water level very low state time, now liquid level switch 31 is compressed by roller 23, and liquid level switch 31 is in closure state.When water level in water tank 1 rises, float 22 is subject to buoyancy and progressively floats, thus drive float assembly around the pivot axis of body 21, float 22 rises, and roller 23 sinks, now roller 23 departs from liquid level switch 31 gradually, when water level in water tank 1 rises to the full position of setting water, roller 23 and liquid level switch 31 depart from completely, liquid level switch assembly 3 is opened, now liquid level switch 31 sends unlatching settling signal, after mainboard receives and opens settling signal, control compressor shuts down, the full warning light flicker of water simultaneously, now must remove condensed water in water tank 1 can work on.
As can be seen from above description; embodiments of the invention achieve following technique effect: water tank comprises tank body and float assembly; the sidewall of tank body is provided with float assembly installation portion; float assembly is articulated in float assembly installation portion; and because water tank has the float protective case covering at float assembly upper end, the problem that the float assembly caused because of the maloperation of user lost efficacy therefore can be avoided.
The foregoing is only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, be not limited to the present invention, for a person skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations.Within the spirit and principles in the present invention all, any amendment done, equivalent replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
