Abstract

PURPOSE:To permit to effect stabilized humidification at all times since a constant tension is being applied on a filter at all times even when there is elongation or contraction in the filter itself by a method wherein a belt type rubber sheet is mounted along the whole periphery of the filter in the widthwise direction thereof at a proper place. CONSTITUTION:A water tank 1 is provided at the lower part of an outer frame 2, constituting the main body of a water tank 1, while a driven roller 3 is provided rotatably in the water tank. The filter 6 is mounted in the form of an endless belt and is moved by a driving roller motor 5. Air sucked through a suction port 10 by the rotation of a fan motor 9, is humidified when the air is passing through the filter 6 and is discharged out of a blow-off port 11. The filter 6 is tensed at all times by the elasticity of the belt type rubber sheet 7, therefore, elongation will never be caused by the driving torque of the driving roller 4 or the weight increase of the filter due to absorption of water and a tension can be kept between the driven roller 3 and the driving roller 4 at all times whereby the idle running of the filter 6 will never be caused and stabilized humidifying amount may be obtained by the smooth running of the filter.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a humidifier that humidifies air by blowing air through a filter that passes through an aquarium.

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional ifam of this kind had a configuration as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. In the figure, reference numeral 21 denotes an outer frame constituting the main body, and the outer frame 21 is provided with an air inlet 23 and an air outlet 23 after humidification. Inside the outer frame 21, the filter 24 is connected to the driving roller 25 and the driven roller 2.
The filter 24 is attached like an endless belt between the water tank 2 and the water tank 2 by the rotation of the drive roller motor 27.
8 and absorbs water. Wind 30 generated by the fan 29 passes through the filter 24 and is humidified, and the air is discharged from the outlet 23.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, the filter 24 increases in weight as it absorbs water, expands and expands in length.
The filter 24 may not rotate because the tension between the rollers 25 and 26 decreases and the drive roller 25 spins idly. In this case, the filter 24 cannot perform sufficient humidification, and the humidification of the air is also reduced. There was a problem that the specified capabilities of the machine were not demonstrated.

The present invention solves these problems, and aims to provide a humidifier that maintains a constant tension even when the filter itself expands and contracts, and that can perform stable humidification at all times. .

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a driving roller rotated by a driving roller motor, a driven roller, and an endless belt between the driving roller and the driven roller. It is equipped with a filter attached in the shape of a filter, a water tank in which one end of the filter is immersed, and a fan that sends air to the filter, and a band-shaped rubber sheet is attached to the entire circumference at the appropriate position in the width direction of the filter. be.

Function: With this configuration, a constant tension is always applied to the filter due to the elasticity of the band-shaped rubber sheet.

EXAMPLE Below, an example of the present invention will be explained using the drawings (Figs. 1 and 2).
The explanation will be based on Figure).

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a water tank for storing water, which is provided at the lower part of an outer frame 2 constituting the main body, and a driven roller 3 is rotatably provided inside. Reference numeral 4 denotes a driving row provided in the center of the outer frame 2, one end of which is rotatably supported, and the other end connected to a driving roller motor 5. A filter 6 is attached in the form of an endless belt between the driven roller 3 and the driving roller 54, and is configured to be rotated by the rotation of the driving roller motor 5. A band-shaped rubber sheet 7 is sewn along the entire circumference of both side edges of the filter 6 in the rotational direction, so that tension is always applied to the filter 6 in the rotational direction. 8 is a fan, 9 is a fan motor, 10 is an inlet, and 11 is an outlet.

In the above configuration, due to the rotation of the fan motor 9,
Air sucked in from the suction port 10 as indicated by arrow A in FIG. At this time, because the filter 6 is constantly under tension due to the elasticity of the band-shaped rubber sheet 7, 1. The filter 6 does not stretch due to the driving torque from the driving roller 4 or the increase in layers due to water absorption, and the tension can always be maintained between the driven roller 3 and the driving roller 4. There is no idling, and therefore a stable amount of humidification can be obtained through smooth rotation.A5 Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, as described above, the tension between the two rollers is due to the expansion and contraction of the passed filter. A decrease in tension can be prevented by attaching a band-shaped rubber sheet around the entire circumference of the filter, and by constantly applying tension, the belt is always driven normally, and a stable amount of humidification can be obtained.
