FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a fumigation according to an embodiment.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known configuration or a known function can obscure the gist of the embodiments, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

On the other hand, the singular expressions include plural expressions unless the context clearly indicates singular value. And, when a particular section is referred to as "comprising ", it means that the particular section may include other configurations other than the specific configuration, as long as there is no specially contradictory description.

1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a fumigant 100 according to an embodiment. Hereinafter, the fumigant 100 according to the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

The frame 110 may be a structure for defining the outer periphery of the fog generator 100. Inside the frame 110, a configuration of a main tank 120, an auxiliary tank 130, and the like described later may be provided. A plurality of exhaust holes 115 may be formed in at least one side of the frame 110 (in the present embodiment, the upper surface is illustrated as an upper surface), and steam generated inside the frame 110 may be exhausted through the exhaust hole 115, (Not shown).

The main tank 120 can be provided inside the frame 110 and can store water therein. The water in the main tank 120 can be heated by the operation of the first heating device 125 and ultimately raised in the steam and discharged to the outside of the frame 110 through the discharge hole 115. [ The first heating device 125 may refer to any means for heating the water in the main tank 120.

A first level measuring sensor 129 may be provided at one side of the main tank 120. [ In this embodiment, the first level measuring sensor 129 is provided on one side wall of the main tank 120 as an example. The first level sensor 129 measures the level of water in the main tank 120 and can transmit the measured value to a controller described later.

Like the main tank 120, water can also be stored in the auxiliary tank 130. Although the auxiliary tank 130 is illustrated as being provided inside the frame 110 in this embodiment, the auxiliary tank 130 may be provided outside the frame 110 in another modified example. The water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 may be transferred to the main tank 120 when the water stored in the main tank 120 is consumed over a certain standard. Even if the water stored in the main tank 120 is consumed, the fumigant 100 can be continuously operated without interruption due to the continuous supply of water from the auxiliary tank 130.

Similar to the first heating device 125, the second heating device 135 can heat the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130. In the present embodiment, the second heating device 135 may perform a function of preheating the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 before the water is supplied to the main tank 120. Since the water heated to a certain level or more is supplied from the auxiliary tank 130 to the main tank 120, the load applied to the first heating device 125 that heats the water in the main tank 120 can be reduced . In this regard, the auxiliary tank 130 may be provided with a temperature sensor 138. The second heating device 135 can be operated based on the temperature of the water in the auxiliary tank 130 measured by the temperature sensor 138.

On the other hand, the second level sensor 139 may also be provided in the auxiliary tank 130. If the water level of the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 is lower than a certain level based on the water level measurement value of the second water level sensor 139, the auxiliary tank 130 can receive water from an external water source not shown. The auxiliary tank 130 and the external water source may be connected through the supply pipe 20.

The main tank 120 and the auxiliary tank 130 may be connected to each other by the first pipe 10. The first pipe 10 may be provided with a first valve 11 for selectively opening and closing the first pipe 10 and the first valve 11 may be driven by a driving device exemplified by the motor 12 . The water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 can be transferred to the main tank 120 when the first valve 11 is opened and the first pipe 10 is opened.

The humidity sensor 140 may be provided on one external side of the frame 110. In another variation, the humidity sensor 140 may be located at a particular point in the location where the fumigant 100 is installed. The humidity sensor 140 can measure the humidity of the place where the fumigant 100 is installed. The humidity sensor 140 and the humidity measurement value may be described in connection with the dehumidifier 150.

The dehumidifier 150 may be provided inside the frame 110, for example. When the humidity of the installation place of the humidifier 100 becomes a certain level or more, the dehumidifier 150 can perform a dehumidification function. Specifically, the dehumidifier 150 may collect moisture in the humidifier 100 installation site and / or steam generated in the frame 110. Here, the humidity and the steam may have the same meaning, but they will be classified by convenience in reference to the current position (the place where the fumigant 100 is installed outside the fumigant 100 or the inside of the fumigant 100).

The dehumidifier 150 and the auxiliary tank 130 may be connected to each other by the second pipe 30. The second pipe 30 may be provided with a second valve 31 for selectively opening and closing the second pipe 30 and the second valve 31 may be provided by a drive device illustrated as a motor 32 . Moisture (moisture / steam) trapped in the dehumidifier 150 can be moved to the auxiliary tank 130 when the second valve 31 is opened and the second pipe 30 is opened.

Although not shown here, the dehumidifier 150 and the main tank 120 may also be connected to each other through separate piping. In this case, the moisture collected in the dehumidifier 150 can be transferred to the main tank 120.

The controller (not shown) has a memory and can store reference values for temperature, humidity, and water level, and can drive the driving devices such as the motors 12 and 32 and the heating devices 125 and 135. In driving the driving device and the heating devices 125 and 135 as described above, the controller can compare the measured value from the sensors 129, 138, 139, and 140 with the previously stored reference value.

Hereinafter, an operation of the fumigant 100 will be described.

The controller activates the first heating device 125 so that the water stored in the main tank 120 can be vaporized and discharged out of the frame 110 through the discharge hole 115 in the form of a vapor. During this continuous steam generation and discharge process, the controller can receive the water level value of the water inside the main tank 120 from the first level measurement sensor 129 and compare it with the previously stored reference value. As a result of the comparison, when the water level in the main tank 120 is lower than the reference value, the controller can drive the driving device exemplified by the motor 12 to open the first valve 11. [ Accordingly, the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 can be transferred to the main tank 120 through the first pipe 10. The opening time of the first valve 11 is related to the amount of water to be replenished to the main tank 120 and the controller can determine the opening time of the first valve 11 by calculating the amount of water to be replenished. Thus, even if water is consumed in the main tank 120, the fumigant 100 can be operated without interruption because there is continuous water supply from the auxiliary tank 130. [

Before the water is supplied from the auxiliary tank 130 to the main tank 120, the controller receives the temperature measurement value of the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 from the temperature sensor 138, compares the measured temperature value with the previously stored reference value, When the temperature is lower than the reference value, the temperature of the water can be raised by operating the second heating device 135. Since the water in the auxiliary tank 130 is preheated to a predetermined level and then supplied to the main tank 120, the load applied to the first heating device 125 and the steam generation time can be reduced.

On the other hand, as the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 is supplied to the main tank 120, the water level of the auxiliary tank 130 can be lowered. The controller receives the water level value of the water inside the auxiliary tank 130 from the second water level sensor 139 and compares the water level value with the previously stored reference value. When the water level is lower than the reference value, the auxiliary tank 130 controls the supply pipe 20 Water can be supplied from an external water source through the water supply source. At this time, for example, the controller may actuate a valve (not shown) on the supply pipe 20 or operate the pump.

As the discharge of steam continues, the humidity at the installation site of the fumigant (100) may be higher than necessary. In this case, the controller can actuate the dehumidifier 150 to lower the humidity to a certain level. Specifically, the controller receives the humidity measurement value of the installation place of the humidifier 100 from the humidity sensor 140, compares the humidity measurement value with the reference value stored in advance, and if the humidity measurement value is equal to or greater than the reference value, And / or dehumidify the vapor within the fumigant (100).

Further, the controller can open the second valve 31 by driving the drive device exemplified by the motor 32, so that the moisture collected by the dehumidifier 150 is supplied to the auxiliary tank 30 through the second pipe 30, Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > 130 < / RTI >

The auxiliary tank 130 and the dehumidifier 150 may be provided inside the frame 110 and may be located on the upper side of the main tank 120. [ The temperature of the water stored in the auxiliary tank 130 and the moisture collected in the dehumidifier 150 can be increased by the heat of the steam rising from the main tank 120. [ In other words, due to the above arrangement, the load of the second heating device 135 can be reduced, and the steam generation time can be reduced.

The direction of movement of the water is the same as that of the dehumidifier 150, the auxiliary tank 130, and the main tank 120 in the order from top to bottom in the order of the dehumidifier 150, the auxiliary tank 130, and the main tank 120, Between these configurations, a separate pump for water movement may not be required.
