The present invention relates to a humidifier having a dehumidifying function, and more particularly, by filling a refrigerant material in a bucket used when humidifying, allowing the indoor air to circulate along the outer wall of the bucket in a state where the bucket is cooled. The present invention relates to a humidifier having a dehumidifying function in which water contained in the air is dehumidified and stuck to a bucket by condensation.

In general, the humidifier, as shown in FIG. 1, the water contained in the bucket 3 is introduced into the humidifying chamber 1, and the inside thereof is provided with a vibrator 2 for vibrating water using ultrasonic waves. In addition, the upper part of the vibrator 2 is provided with an atomization chamber 3 through which the atomized water vapor generated by the vibration of the ultrasonic wave is guided to the upper nozzle 4. The conventional humidifier configured as described above is provided by the vibrator 2. The vibrated atomized water vapor is raised to the upper part of the atomization chamber 3 by the rotation of the fan 6 and then discharged into the room through the nozzle 4 to humidify the room.

However, this humidifier is a seasonal product, especially because it is used only in dry winter, the range of use is limited. On the other hand, in summer, since it is relatively humid compared to winter, a dehumidifier is required to remove moisture contained in the indoor air. Therefore, the consumer has to purchase a humidifier and a dehumidifier, respectively, and the economic burden is large, and also have to manage each of them in the state of purchasing these devices, such as troublesome.

In consideration of this, the inventor of the present invention forms a humidifier and a dehumidifier in one body, thereby reducing the inconvenience of having to purchase them separately and making it easy to manage. A humidifier with a dehumidification function made economical was created.

The purpose of this invention is to fill the refrigerant inside the bucket of the humidifier and to allow the indoor air to flow along the outer circumferential surface of the bucket, so that the moisture contained in the indoor air is dehumidified attached to the outer peripheral surface of the bucket by condensation It is to provide a humidifier having a dehumidifying function.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a humidifier in which water in a bucket is heated in a humidification tank in which a heater is installed, and a heat insulation wall which surrounds a space in which the bucket is placed and blocks it from external heat, indoors inside the space. Inhalation passage through which air is introduced, dehumidification means in which water contained in the water is condensed by condensation as the indoor air introduced into the space part contacts the outer circumferential surface of the water bottle, and the indoor air dehumidified in the space part by a fan. There is a feature provided with an exhaust passage forcibly exhausted.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

2 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention humidifier. The present invention is provided with a space portion 11 into which the cylindrical bucket 12 is inserted into an inner side of the body 10 placed on the floor, and the upper portion of the space portion 11 is blocked from the outside by the cover 13. . And the space 11 is composed of a heat insulating wall 22 surrounding the four sides, the heat is introduced into the space 11 or is prevented from flowing out of the space 11. On the other hand, the other side of the body 10, the humidification tank 15 is installed is connected to the bucket 12 along the waterway 14c, the humidifier 15 is provided with a heater 16 for heating the water.

At this time, the heater 16 is wrapped in the atomization cylinder 17 which collects the heated water vapor so as not to spread, and the discharge tube 18 for discharging water vapor into the upper part of the atomization cylinder 17 is formed. Meanwhile, dehumidifying means 20 is provided to allow moisture contained in indoor air to condense due to condensation in the process of passing indoor air into the space 11 and passing through the outer circumferential surface of the bucket 12, and then exhausting indoor air. .

The dehumidifying means 20 is filled in the water reservoir 12, the refrigerant material 20a for cooling it, the suction passage 23 through which the indoor air flows into the upper portion of the space 11, the indoor air space 11 Is installed in the exhaust passage 25, which is sucked from the lower side of the air, and exhausted into the room, the dehumidification heater 24 installed in the suction passage 23 to heat the sucked air to a low temperature, and the exhaust passage 25 to force indoor air. A fan 26 for exhausting the furnace is provided.

On the other hand, on the outer circumferential surface of the bucket 12 to form a threaded protrusion 21 on the inner circumferential surface of the heat insulating wall 22 to widen the contact area with the indoor air sucked, the bucket 12 and the heat insulating wall by the protrusion 21. A spiral heat exchange passage 21a is formed between the 22. That is, since the indoor air is sucked into the space 11 and then moved along the heat exchange passage 21a from the upper portion of the bucket 12 to the lower side, the contact area with the bucket 12 is increased, thereby improving heat exchange. On the other hand, when the bucket 12 is fitted in the space 11, a clearance gap is generated between the protrusion 21 and the bucket 12 and the bucket 12. However, such a clearance gap is naturally blocked by the water film phenomenon of the dehumidifying water when water vapor contained in the air forms condensation on the outer circumferential surface of the bucket 12 due to condensation. It circulates along the heat exchange passage 21a without leaking into the gap.

Meanwhile, the dehumidifying water generated as the indoor air passes along the heat exchange passage 21a flows downward along the heat exchange passage 21a formed in the form of a thread, and then collects in the dehumidification passage 27 formed at the bottom of the water tank 12. When the discharge pipe 18 is installed in the center of the exhaust passage 25 in the form of a concentric circle, and the fan 26 is rotated, the tip air pressure of the discharge pipe 18 is lowered according to the principle of the venturi pipe, and the atomized water vapor As it is sucked and discharged, the discharge proceeds quickly. Meanwhile, the coolant 20a may use an ice pack or ice, and the reference numeral 14 is a bucket holder, and a rod 14a is placed at the center thereof so that when the bucket 12 is placed on the bucket holder 14 when humidified, the stopper 12a may be placed. Pressed and opened by the rod 14a, water is supplied into the humidification chamber 15 along the channel 14c. In the dehumidification, when the rod 14a is rotated and removed, the lower dehumidification tank 27 and the bucket holder 14 communicate with each other through the holes 14b for fastening the rod 14a. Dehumidifying water is collected into the dehumidifying container 27.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the stopper 12a of the bucket 12 is formed to penetrate through the upper hole 53a communicated with the bucket 12 at the center of the upper surface downwardly and inclined downward and at the center of the lower surface. The cylindrical plug body 12a through which the lower hole 53a into which the rod 14a is inserted from the lower part is opened, and the upper hole 53a is opened on the upper surface when it is moved up and down in the plug body 12a. The conical rubber packing 55a is formed to protrude upward, and the rubber plate 55b for opening and closing the lower hole 53b protrudes downward at the lower surface thereof, and the body 55 is formed of a buoyant member and a stopper body 12a. It is composed of a coil spring (57) that is elastically installed on the lower surface of the lower surface and the lower surface of the valve 55 to pull the valve 55 downward. That is, when the bucket 12 storing water is not seated on the bucket holder 14 or when the valve 55 is not pressed upward by the rod 14a, the weight of the water in the bucket 12 and the coil spring ( The valve 55 is made to maintain the state in which the lower hole 53b of the stopper body 12a is closed with the rubber plate 53b while being in contact with the lower surface of the stopper body 12a by the tensile force of 57.

On the other hand, when the bucket 12 is seated on the bucket holder 14 and the valve 55 is pushed upward by the rod 14a, the water in the bucket is opened as the lower hole 53b of the plug body 12a is opened. The bucket holder 14 is filled through the upper hole 53a and the lower hole 53b. When the water in the bucket holder 14 reaches a certain level, the valve 55 is raised by buoyancy and the rubber on the upper surface thereof. The upper hole 53a is closed through the packing 55a to intercept the water supply intermittently.

Referring to the humidification process of the present invention configured as described above first put the inside of the space 11 in the state containing water in the bucket 12 to close the cover (13).

At this time, the stopper 12a formed at the bottom of the bucket 12 is pressed and opened by the rod 14a installed in the bucket holder 14, and at the same time, the water is inside the humidification chamber 15 along the bucket holder 14 and the waterway 14c. Is supplied. In addition, when the water level of the humidification chamber 15 and the bottom of the stopper 12a coincide, the water supply is naturally cut off. In this state, when the heater 16 is heated, water vapor is generated while the water in the humidification chamber 15 is attracted, and the steam is discharged into the room through the atomization chamber 17 and the discharge pipe 18 to humidify the room.

At this time, as the fan 26 rotates, the tip of the discharge tube 18 is discharged in the process of discharging the indoor air into the room through the suction passage 23, the space 11, the heat exchange passage 21a, and the exhaust passage 25. Due to the pressure drop, the steam is sucked out and exhausted, so the discharge of the steam proceeds quickly. Meanwhile, when the dehumidification process of the present invention is described, the ice pack or the ice pack of the coolant 20a or the ice is filled in the bucket 12, and the cover 13 is closed in the space 11. At this time, by rotating the rod 14a formed in the bucket holder 14 and separating it from the hole 14b, the space 11 must be in communication with the dehumidifying tank 27 through the bucket holder 14 and the hole 14b. . On the other hand, when the bucket 12 is fitted into the space 11, the heat exchange passage 21a naturally occurs between the heat insulation wall 22 of the space 11 by the projection 21 formed on the outer circumferential surface of the bucket 12. Is formed.

In this state, when the fan 26 is rotated, indoor air is sucked along the suction passage 23 and then discharged to the upper side of the space 11. At this time, the indoor air is heated to a low temperature by the dehumidification heater (24). Thus, the indoor air heated at a low temperature is introduced into the space portion 11 and then circulated downward along the heat exchange passage 21a formed between the protrusion 21 and the heat insulating wall 22, and cooled by the refrigerant material 20a. It is in contact with the outer circumferential surface of the water tank 12 to heat exchange. In other words, when the moisture contained in the indoor air is heated to a low temperature by the dehumidification heater 24 and the relative humidity falls, the moisture is absorbed more as much as the corresponding humidity. When it comes into contact with the outer circumferential surface, it turns into water droplets due to condensation and becomes a dehumidifying water. Meanwhile, the dehumidifying water flows downward along the heat exchange passage 21a formed in the form of a thread, and is collected into the dehumidifying cylinder 27 through the hole 14b formed in the bucket holder 14. On the other hand, the indoor air is discharged to the room via the exhaust passage 25 in a state in which water is removed in the process of circulating downward along the heat exchange passage 21a.

As described above, according to the present invention, by filling the coolant with the inside of the bucket used when humidifying, and allowing indoor air to flow to the outer circumferential surface thereof, condensation phenomenon occurs as indoor air flows on the outer circumferential surface of the bucket cooled by the coolant. By condensing water droplets there is an effect that the water vapor dehumidification contained in the indoor air.
