BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an evaporative humidifier, and relates to a structure for preventing hot water from being discharged when it falls.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An evaporative humidifier is provided with a water tank and an evaporating dish having a heating means, which is connected to the water tank in the main body, and an inner cylinder connected to the discharge port of the main body is provided on the upper part of the evaporating dish.
A blower outer cylinder communicating with the blower is provided outside the inner cylinder.

According to the conventional evaporation type humidifier, the hot water heated by the heating means is stored in the evaporation dish at the time of use, and the main body for discharging the steam generated here is placed on the upper part of the evaporation dish. Since there is an inner cylinder connected to the discharge port of, if the main body falls due to some vibration such as an earthquake,
There was a risk that the hot water in the evaporation dish would flow out along the inner cylinder from the discharge port in the upper part of the main body.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been devised in view of the above-mentioned problems of the conventional type, and provides a structure in which the hot water in the evaporation tray is not discharged to the outside when the main body falls. The purpose is.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems The evaporation type humidifier of the present invention for solving the above problems comprises the following structure. That is, an evaporative humidifier provided with an inner cylinder connected to the discharge port of the main body at the upper part of the evaporation dish, and an outer air cylinder serving as a ventilation passage and an inner fan for air communication communicating with the air blower outside the inner cylinder. And, between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder, while forming a storage chamber of a predetermined capacity for storing the hot water in the evaporation tray when the main body falls, a guide edge having an inwardly descending inclination is formed at the lower end of the inner cylinder. It is formed.

[0006]

In the above structure, by forming a storage chamber of a predetermined capacity between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder connected to the discharge port of the main body at the upper part of the evaporation dish, when the main body receives some vibration and falls Since the hot water in the evaporating dish flows into the accommodation chamber side and can accommodate the hot water, it is possible to prevent the hot water from flowing out from the discharge port in the upper part of the main body.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is a main body of an evaporative humidifier, and a lid 11 is provided on an upper portion of the main body 1. A water tank 2 is detachably provided inside. A water receiver 24 having a boss 23 for supporting the valve body 22 of the discharge port 21 is formed in the lower mounting portion of the water tank 2.
On the other side of 4, an evaporating dish 3 is provided, which is connected to the water pipe 25 and has heating means such as a heater. An inner cylinder 4 having a discharge port 41 communicating with the opening 12 formed in the lid 11 of the main body 1 is provided on the upper part of the evaporation tray 3, and a fan motor 51 or the like blows air outside the inner cylinder 4. A blower inner cylinder 5 equipped with a means and an outer cylinder 6 forming the air flow path are provided.

In forming the inner cylinder 4 and the outer cylinder 6, there is formed a storage chamber 7 having a predetermined capacity for storing the hot water in the evaporation tray 3 when the main body 1 falls over. The body 1 is configured so that hot water can be accommodated in any falling direction. That is, an opening width B1 larger than the inclination A1 of the water surface formed when the body 1 falls is formed in the lower portions of the outer cylinder 6 and the inner cylinder 4, and at the lower end of the inner cylinder 4 Is integrally formed with a guide edge 8 having a downward slope.

Further, between the outer cylinder 6 and the inner cylinder 4 are formed the positions A2, A3, A4 of the water surface when the main body 1 falls, with intervals B3, B4 sufficient to receive them. Further, in forming the blower outlet 52 opened on the upper end of the blower inner cylinder 5 and the blower inlet 42 opened on the wall surface of the inner cylinder 4, the water surface of the hot water stored in the storage chamber 7 when the main body 1 falls down. Are provided at positions B2 and B5 which are sufficiently distant from the position A2.

With the above structure, when the main body 1 falls down due to some vibration, the hot water in the evaporation tray 3 flows into the accommodation chamber 7 side, so that the main body 1 is moved along the inner cylinder 4.
It is possible to prevent hot water from flowing out from the discharge port 41 on the upper part of the hot water. Inclination A of the water surface when the body 1 falls
1, if the opening width B1 larger than this is formed, the hot water can quickly flow into the accommodation chamber 7 side, but if this is increased, the height to the lower end of the inner cylinder 4 on the evaporation tray 3 will be increased. Becomes large, which is not preferable in the flow of steam.

By forming a guide edge 8 having an inwardly declining slope at the lower end of the inner cylinder 4, the inflow of the hot water against the inclination A1 of the hot water when the body 1 falls down is prevented. The lower end of the inner cylinder 4 can be brought as close as possible to the evaporation dish 3. By this, the evaporation dish 3
The steam from can be efficiently circulated through the inner cylinder 4.

Further, in the accommodation chamber 7 formed by the outer cylinder 6 and the inner cylinder 4, the positions A2, A3 of the water surface when the main body 1 falls down,
By providing the intervals B3 and B4 that are sufficiently larger than A4, it is possible to secure a sufficient volume for containing the hot water in the state where the main body 1 is completely inverted, and prevent the hot water from leaking to the outside. it can.

Further, the blower outlet 52 and the blower inlet 4
2 is formed at positions B2 and B5 far enough away from the position A2 of the surface of the hot water in the storage chamber 7 when the main body 1 falls, so that a portion of the hot water stored in the storage chamber 7 is It can be prevented from flowing out of the main body through the outlet 52 or the air inlet 42.

[0014]

According to the evaporative humidifier of the present invention, by forming a liquid storage chamber of a predetermined capacity between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder in the upper part of the evaporating dish, the main body receives some vibration. When it falls, the hot water in the evaporating dish flows into the accommodation chamber side, so that it is possible to prevent the hot water from flowing out to the outside from the discharge port in the upper part of the main body along the inner cylinder. Further, if the opening width is made larger than the inclination of the water surface formed when the main body falls, the hot water can be quickly received in the accommodation chamber side, and further, the guide having the inward inclination at the lower end of the inner cylinder. By forming the edge, it is possible to prevent the inflow of hot water due to the inclination of the hot water when the main body falls, and to make the lower end of the inner cylinder as close to the evaporation tray as possible, so that the steam from the evaporation tray can be efficiently transferred to the inner cylinder side. Can be distributed.
