Hereinafter will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings showing an embodiment of the present invention.

The present invention is an evaporative humidifier that vaporizes water, and sterilizes various bacteria in the air by mixing the disinfectant component into the discharged air by evaporating by mixing an appropriate amount of the disinfectant selected from chlorine dioxide water and phytoncide with water of OH radical number component. It is intended to provide a vaporized air sterilizer which disinfects and also inhibits the growth of bacteria.

To this end, as shown in FIG. 1, at least one surface is opened, and the main body includes an inlet port 11 through which external air is sucked into the inside, and a discharge port 12 through which the air sucked through the inlet port 11 is discharged to the outside. 10; A water tank 14 located on a bottom surface of the main body 10; A water filter 20 having a rotation shaft 22 having a length from side to side in the upper side of the water tank 14, and having a plurality of wave-shaped plates having a center penetrated on the rotation shaft 22; A blower 30 configured to sequentially pass the suction port 11 and the water filter 20 of the main body 10 to blow air introduced into the discharge port 12 into the discharge port 12; A sterilizer supply unit 40 for supplying a sterilizing component by diluting a predetermined amount of the sterilizing agent with a sterilizing component in water of the water tank 14; An OH radical number generating device 45 provided in the water tank 14 to make water stored in the water tank 14 into OH radical water; The fungicide is carried out by using any one selected from chlorine dioxide water and phytoncide.

Chlorine dioxide (ClO ₂ ) is capable of maintaining a wide range of pH sterilizing power, suitable for use in disinfecting alkaline cooling water, and has the characteristics of greatly weakening the regeneration of bacteria after sterilization.

The chlorine dioxide water is harmless to human body even when inhaled into the body through the respiratory system, does not react with ammonia (NH ₃ ) and does not form toxic chloramine, and there is no formation of carcinogens caused by byproducts. It is easily decomposed by light.

Phytoncide is a substance that plants exhale or secrete to resist pathogens, pests, and fungi. Drinking phytoncide in a forest bath relieves stress, strengthens intestines and cardiopulmonary function, and also has a bactericidal effect.

In the present invention, the water supplied into the water tank 14 becomes OH radical number (OH Radical, Hydroxyl Radical) through the OH radical number generating device 50. Such OH radical number sterilizes and disinfects all contaminants, Moreover, it is the most powerful substance that can be chemically decomposed and removed, and it has strong oxidizing power (capacity to disinfect, disinfect, deodorize and decompose), but it is not toxic or harmful to the human body, and is directly involved in air and water contaminants. It is characterized by reducing all pollutants to safe water (H ₂ O) and oxygen (O ₂ ) to harm to the human body.

The main body 10 has one side open in FIG. 2 and is formed to be introduced to the outside, and the water filter 20 which is described later in succession with the suction port 11 is installed.

In addition, the bottom surface of the main body 10 is provided with a water tank 14 in which water is supplied and stored inside through a water inlet 14A on one side, and the air sucked into the inside through the inlet 11 is discharged to the outside. A discharge opening 12 is provided, and a water filter 20 to be described later is provided between the suction opening 11 and the discharge opening 12.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the water filter 20 forms bends at an appropriate interval from the center of the disc to the outer periphery of the disc, or stacks a plurality of wave filter plates formed in one direction of crosswise bend or zigzag shape, and at the center thereof. It is installed on the upper side of the water tank 14 through the rotating shaft 22.

Thus, the embodiment of the plate-shaped filter 21 may be implemented as a filter 21 ′ in which the wavy shapes overlap with each other as shown in FIG. 4 or oppositely as shown in FIG. 6. When a plurality of 21 'and 21' are stacked, the contact area between the filter and the air passing between the filter is wider and the passage time is longer, which makes it easier to vaporize the water in the water filter 20.

At this time, the lower portion of the water filter 20 is installed to be immersed in the water tank 14, the upper portion of the air inlet 11 is exposed to the air passage toward the blower 30, such a water filter 20 Is rotated in one direction so that the portion submerged in the water tank 14 and the portion exposed to the pneumatic to move alternately.

In order to rotate the water filter 20, a motor having a reducer attached to one end of the rotating shaft 22 may be used. When the water filter 20 is rotated by mounting the motor, the water is controlled according to the air volume controlled by the controller. There is an advantage that the rotation speed of the filter 20 can be easily changed.

On the other hand, the zigzag or wavy shape of the water filter 20 may act as a resistance element of the air, so that the rotational speed of the water filter 20 may be naturally increased or decreased in accordance with the wind speed of the sucked air. The reducer and the like can be omitted.

As described above, when the water filter 20 is rotated by air, air resistance is generated in the process of passing air between the wavy grooves of the water filter 20 so that the water filter 20 is rotated by the rotating shaft 22. By natural rotation, the rotation of the water filter 20 is rotated according to the faster the wind speed is the air is sucked in, and rotates slowly if the wind speed is slow.

Therefore, since the speed at which the water filter 20 is rotated is naturally adjusted according to the wind speed of the air sucked in, the water filter 20 exposed by the large amount of air passing through the water filter 20 instantaneously when the wind speed is high. Even if the part is rapidly evaporated, the rotating speed increases and decreases together, so that the water filter 20 rotates 360 ° and the part of the water filter 20 located in the air passage is quickly locked in the water tank 14 and then exposed to the air passage side again. Repeat.

The water filter 20 of this structure is naturally rotated in accordance with the wind speed of the air sucked into the inlet 11, the water filter 20 can be maintained so that the moisture of the water filter 20 does not dry, moreover, the air is a water filter ( 20) The portion of the water filter 20 which is in contact with the air passing between the parts is soaked while being submerged in the water in the water tank 14 so that the filter is always wet even if the water in the water tank 14 is not supplied by using a pump. State is maintained.

In addition, the air passing through the water filter 20 has a function of adsorbing and removing particulate dust existing in the air by moisture of the water filter 20, the adsorbed dust is the water filter 20 is a water tank ( 14) in the process of immersing back into the water tank (14) is collected, and the dust collected in this way can be kept clean by periodically cleaning the water in the water tank (14).

The blower 30 is a means for sucking and discharging external air to the sterilizer main body 10. When the blower 30 is operated, the air inside the main body 10 is discharged to the discharge port 12 through the blower 30. As the air pressure inside the main body 10 decreases, the outside air is sucked into the inlet 11 and passes through the water filter 20, and the air passing through the water filter 20 flows into the blower 30. It is discharged to the outside of the main body 10 through the discharge port 12 located on the upper side.

The sterilant supply unit 40 is installed in the main body 10 so as to dilute an appropriate amount of the sterilizing agent in the water in the water tank 14 supplied to the water filter 20, which is the main body (as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5). 10) is further provided with an inlet (44) communicating inwardly on the outside; The sterilizing agent supply unit 40 and the reservoir 41 is stored in the sterilizing agent therein; It is further provided with an automatic valve 42 for selectively supplying the sterilant stored in the reservoir 41 to the water tank (14).

At this time, a transparent window 41A is provided on one side wall of the storage tank 41 so as to detect the level of the disinfectant stored in the storage tank 41 so as to confirm refilling. It is further provided with a water level sensor for notifying the highest water level, and further comprising a water level detecting means for operating an alarm or flashing a lamp when the level of the sterilizer is below or above an appropriate level.

In addition, the amount of disinfectant is continuously supplied into the water tank 14 so that the amount of disinfectant is controlled so as not to be excessively concentrated in the water in the water tank 14. For this purpose, a sensor for measuring the concentration of the disinfectant in the water tank 14 is provided. Is provided, the main body 10, one side is further provided with a control unit 13 for controlling it.

As a method of controlling the supply amount of the sterilizer through the control unit 13, the supply amount of the sterilizer is set according to the amount of water stored in the water tank 14, and the sterilant is supplied into the water tank 14 during the operation of the blower 30. To control.

Here, the present invention may be mixed with the microparticles of the sterilant in the air vaporized only by the sterilizer supplied into the water tank 14 through the sterilizer supply unit 40, the present invention is to further improve the effect of such sterilization, disinfection An OH radical water generating device 45 is further provided to allow the OH radical water to be accommodated into the water tank 14, and a fungicide is mixed in the OH radical water.

The OH radical water generator 45 is mounted on one side of the water inlet 14A of the main body 10 or the bottom surface of the water tank 14, and the water supplied passes through the OH radical water generator 45, and then the water tank 14. The OH radical water generator 45 is installed in a water pipe, and various apparatuses for making tap water and the like into OH radical water are disclosed, and the present invention is skilled in the art among these OH radical water generators 45.
