The first air inlet end 711 is communicated with the outside and is internally provided with a first heating mechanism 713; the first air outlet end 712 is communicated with the indoor space, and a first fan 714 is arranged in the first air outlet end. Thus, the first heating mechanism 713 is arranged in the first air inlet end 711 to heat the air flow so that the heated air flow passes through the first humidity adjusting block 200 or the second humidity adjusting block 300, the heated air flow is used to heat the first humidity adjusting block 200 or the second humidity adjusting block 300 in the humidity regulator, and then the moisture in the air flow is regenerated, so that the indoor moisture can be collected and released to be discharged into the room when the air is exchanged between the indoor air and the outdoor air, the indoor humidity can be maintained, or the moisture in the first humidity adjusting block 200 and the second humidity adjusting block 300 can be regenerated by heating the outdoor air when the indoor air is subjected to internal circulation dehumidification, so that the subsequent indoor air flow can be continuously absorbed and the indoor dehumidification operation can be performed, in addition, the first air outlet end 712 of the air inlet channel 710 is provided with the first fan 714 to drive the air flow to circulate, because the first heating mechanism 713 needs to be arranged at the first air inlet end 711, the air flow is heated firstly and then passes through the first humidity control block 200 or the second humidity control block 300, so that the first fan 714 is arranged at the first air outlet end 712, the first fan 714 and the first heating mechanism 713 are prevented from being arranged at adjacent positions, the influence generated between the first fan 714 and the first heating mechanism 713 is avoided, the service life of each fan is shortened, and the mounting structure is more reasonable.

Alternatively, vent a401 and vent E405 communicate with the first intake end 711, and vent C403 and vent G407 communicate with the first exhaust end. Thus, the outdoor air entering the first air inlet 711 can enter the casing 100 through the vent a401 or the vent E405, and is discharged into the first air outlet through the vent C403 or the vent G407, and then enters the room.

In this way, since the evaporator 800 has a refrigerating effect, the water vapor can be condensed when meeting cold, and further a dehumidifying effect is achieved, so that the evaporator 800 is arranged at the first air outlet end 712 or the second air outlet end 722, and the air flow dehumidified by the first humidifying block 200 or the second humidifying block 300 can be dehumidified for the second time, thereby improving the dehumidifying efficiency.

Optionally, the evaporator 800 is disposed in the first outlet end 712. In this way, when there is a dehumidification demand indoors, the evaporator 800 provided in the first air outlet end 712 can perform secondary dehumidification to keep the air discharged indoors dry when the dehumidification is not complete by the first and second dehumidification blocks 200 and 300, thereby improving the dehumidification effect.

Optionally, a condenser 900 is provided in the first inlet end 711 and/or the second inlet end 721. Thus, when the air conditioner is adopted indoors for refrigeration, the condenser 900 communicated with the air conditioner is arranged at the first air inlet end 711 or the second air inlet end 721, the flowing air flow can be heated by utilizing the heat of the condenser 900, the water in the first humidity regulating block 200 or the second humidity regulating block 300 can be regenerated by utilizing the waste heat generated in the refrigeration process, the power of a heating mechanism is reduced, the utilization rate of energy is improved, and the air conditioner is more environment-friendly.

Optionally, a condenser 900 is disposed in each of the first air inlet end 711 and the second air inlet end 721. Therefore, under the condition of indoor refrigeration, the heat generated by the condenser 900 is mostly discarded, and the heat generated by the condenser 900 can be used for promoting the moisture in the first humidity control block 200 or the second humidity control block 300 to be released, so that the requirement on a heating mechanism is reduced, and the energy-saving and environment-friendly effects are achieved.

Alternatively, the evaporator 800 and the condenser 900 are connected to a compressor of an indoor air conditioner. Therefore, the compressor of the air conditioner is used for generating heat and cold, energy is saved, the environment is protected, and the cost is reduced.

Alternatively, the evaporator 800 and the condenser 900 are each provided with an on-off valve capable of controlling turning on or off the evaporator 800 and the refrigerator. Thus, the condenser 900 and some or all of the evaporators 800 can be turned on or off according to the operating conditions, thereby preventing the normal operation of humidification or dehumidification from being affected. For example, in the process of humidifying the indoor space, the condenser 900 needs to be turned off to prevent the moisture from being liquefied, thereby reducing the humidifying efficiency.

Optionally, the humidity regulator further comprises: the evaporator 800 may be a cold end of the semiconductor refrigeration device, and the condenser 900 may be a hot end of the semiconductor refrigeration device. Therefore, the semiconductor refrigeration device can simultaneously utilize the cold quantity generated by the cold end of the semiconductor and the heat quantity generated by the hot end of the semiconductor during refrigeration, thereby improving the utilization rate of energy, being more energy-saving and environment-friendly, and being smaller in semiconductor refrigeration volume and convenient to install.
