Description

  This invention relates to an apparatus for adding water into the air.

  An ultrasonic atomizer is disclosed in Patent Document 1. This ultrasonic atomizer sprays the particles atomized by the ultrasonic vibration part upward by air injection. However, since the ultrasonic atomizer described in Patent Document 1 contains a liquid to be atomized in a container and atomizes the liquid using an ultrasonic transducer unit, a large amount of energy is required until the particles are formed. In the particle formation, it is preferable that the amount of liquid is small, and it is more efficient that the liquid spreads more uniformly.

  This device is based on the above prior art, and can efficiently form water particles with less energy and add water to the air, which can be realized with a simple structure. The purpose is to provide a device.

  In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the base, a plurality of columnar members erected from the base, a water supply unit for supplying water to the surface of the base, and the water The plurality of columnar members, the moisture can remain in the gap between adjacent columnar members with surface tension, and the moisture surrounds the gap. Provided is an apparatus for adding water into the air, characterized in that the apparatus is erected along a columnar member at intervals that can rise by capillary action.

  Further, the invention of claim 2 is characterized in that the water supply section supplies an amount of moisture that is increased by capillary action.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, the columnar member can retain moisture in the gap between adjacent columnar members due to surface tension, and the moisture can rise by capillary action along the columnar member surrounding the gap. It is erected at a possible interval. For this reason, in the base portion, moisture enters the gaps between the columnar members and stays there due to surface tension, so that it spreads uniformly, rises along the columnar members, and is efficiently and uniformly atomized into the air. Even if moisture is released into the air after being granulated, moisture can be automatically replenished from the adjacent gap due to surface tension. Therefore, as long as water is supplied from the water supply unit, the water is uniformly supplied to the base. The Therefore, water can be efficiently granulated and diffused into the air with a simple configuration.

  According to the invention of claim 2, since only the amount of water that has risen due to the capillary phenomenon and diffused into the air is supplied from the water supply unit, the water is efficiently granulated and diffused into the air with a small amount of supply water. be able to.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an apparatus for adding water into the air according to the present invention.

  As shown in the figure, the water adding device 1 is composed of a base portion 3 provided with a plurality of columnar members 2, a water supply portion 4 for supplying moisture to the surface of the base portion 3, and moisture on the base portion 3. It is comprised with the ultrasonic transducer | vibrator 5 for making it. This water addition apparatus 1 is arrange | positioned in the container 6 which forms sealed space. The space of the container 6 is provided with an introduction pipe 7 for introducing combustion gas. The base portion 3 is placed on a placement table 8 formed in the container 6, and the bottom surface thereof is in contact with the ultrasonic transducer 5. The base 3 and the ultrasonic transducer 5 may be spaced apart from each other.

  The water supplied from the water supply unit 4 is uniformly diffused over the entire surface of the base 3 as will be described later. In this state, water is ultrasonically vibrated by the ultrasonic vibrator 5 to form water particles and diffuse them into the container 6. At this time, moisture is warmed by the combustion gas from the introduction pipe 7 and the inside of the container 6 is filled with moist air, and various actions such as sterilization, disinfection, and drying in the container 6 can be obtained.

  2A and 2B show a base portion and a columnar member of the water adding device, in which FIG. 2A is a side view and FIG. 2B is a plan view.

  As illustrated, a plurality of columnar members 2 are erected on the base 3. The columnar member 2 may be a prism or a cylinder as long as it is columnar. In the columnar member 2, the water supplied from the water supply unit 4 (see FIG. 1) can remain in the gap S between the adjacent columnar members 2 due to surface tension, and the moisture is along the columnar member 2 surrounding the gap S. Are installed at intervals that can be raised by capillary action.

  For this reason, in the base portion 3, moisture enters the gap S between the columnar members 2 and remains there due to surface tension, spreads uniformly on the surface of the base portion 3, rises along the columnar member 2, and is efficiently uniform. Particles in the air. That is, the water to be granulated automatically rises between the columnar members 2 in the gap S and is uniformly diffused into the air from the surface of the base portion 3. The present invention can be used freely. That is, the base 3 is not limited to being horizontal and may be inclined. Even if it is inclined, the moisture stays in the gap S due to the surface tension, and therefore does not flow out of the gap S. As a result, the moisture can be made uniform on the surface of the base 3.

  Further, even if moisture is released into the air after being granulated, it is possible to automatically replenish moisture from the adjacent gap S due to surface tension. Water is replenished uniformly. Therefore, water can be efficiently granulated and diffused into the air with a simple configuration. That is, even if the flow rate of water supplied from the water supply unit 4 is small (specifically, the amount of water that has risen by capillary action along the columnar member 2 surrounding the gap S and has been granulated and diffused into the air), The surface tension is automatically diffused uniformly on the surface of the base 3. For this reason, useless water supply energy is not required, and moisture can be efficiently diffused into the air with less energy. Furthermore, the columnar member 2 is erected uniformly on the base 3 so as to form a gap S of a predetermined size, so that the moisture is automatically supplied without changing the direction of water supply from the water supply unit 4. Since it diffuses over the entire surface of the base 3, it is possible to efficiently form moisture and diffuse it into the air with a simple configuration.

It is the schematic of the water addition apparatus in the air which concerns on this device. The base part and columnar member of a water addition apparatus are shown, (A) is a side view, (B) is a top view.
