Description

Combined humidifier

The present invention relates to a complex humidifier, and more particularly, a vaporizer is provided by installing an evaporator having a plurality of heat sinks in a passage for forcibly discharging the water atomized by the ultrasonic generator to the blower By evaporating the water discharged in the state instantaneously, the germs contained in the water discharged into the indoor space are completely sterilized to improve hygiene and the discharged water becomes smoother than the atomized state. The present invention relates to a complex humidifier for widespread diffusion into a room for controlling humidity.

In general, the air inside the home or office does not have a suitable vapor generating element in the room and it is easy to dry when the room temperature increases. At this time, the air is supplied with moisture to maintain proper humidity (about 60%). Humidifiers are used to prevent disease and maintain a pleasant indoor atmosphere.

The humidifier used as described above is an electrothermal humidifier that generates steam by heating water supplied from a water tank with a heater or electrode according to a humidification method, and an oscillator installed in water by generating an electric signal of a specific frequency in an electric circuit. It is divided into ultrasonic humidifiers that ultrasonically vibrate to atomize water.

However, such an electrothermal humidifier has a risk of being burned by pouring water of about 80 ° C. to 90 ° C. when the humidifier installed by storing high temperature water in the water tank in the humidifier falls, and the ultrasonic humidifier has a low temperature. Since liquid water is sprayed, not only the temperature of indoor air is lowered, but also the germ propagation in the supplied water cannot be suppressed.

In order to solve the above problems, the combined humidifier according to the prior art is known as Korean Patent Publication No. 98-039133 (published on Aug. 17, 1998), and its configuration and working relationship will be described with reference to FIG. Is as follows.

The combined humidifier according to the related art is provided with a water tank 5 through which the water is supplied from the water tank 3 through the flow pipe 4 inside the main body 2, and installed inside the water tank to warm the water in the water tank to an appropriate temperature. The heater 6, the ultrasonic oscillator 7 provided below the water tank 5, the nozzle case 8 through which the water atomized by the ultrasonic oscillator 7 is guided, and the nozzle case 8 And a blower 9 for forcibly discharging the atomized water to the outside, and a discharge part 10 installed on the nozzle case 8 to adjust the discharge direction of the atomized water.

The complex humidifier according to the related art configured as described above is supplied from the water tank 3 installed in the main body 2 to heat the water stored in the water tank 5 to 60 ° C. to 70 ° C. by the heater 6 such as a heating wire. After that, the atomizer is atomized by ultrasonic vibration of the ultrasonic oscillator 7 and then forcedly cooled by the blower 9 to about 30 ° C to 40 ° C, and forcedly discharged.

However, the combined humidifier according to the related art as described above maintains the temperature of the water heated in the water tank 5 at a temperature of 60 ° C. to 70 ° C., but the temperature of the water stored in the water tank is lower than that of the electrothermal humidifier, but still the humidifier 1 When the fall of the water in the water tank (5), there was a risk of causing a fatal burn to the human body of the infant and child.

In addition, by the heater 6 installed in the water tank 5, the water in the water tank 5 is forcedly cooled by the wind blown again by the blower 9 in the state where the water in the water tank 5 is primarily heated to 60 ° C to 70 ° C, and then ultrasonic vibrations. As it is atomized, the bacteria in the water may not be completely sterilized, and when the water is discharged to the outside, the water is still in the liquid state, and thus the fluidity of the atomized water particles is significantly reduced, so that it is not widely spread to the entire room to be humidified. Since the supply is limited to the periphery of the humidifier (1), the entire humidification effect of the indoor space cannot be exhibited, and too much atomized water around the humidifier (1) sinks to the surroundings, and the surroundings become wet. .

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention installs an evaporator in which a plurality of heat sinks are formed on a passage for forcibly discharging water atomized by an ultrasonic wave oscillator to a blower and discharged in an atomized state. By evaporating the water instantaneously, the germs contained in the water discharged into the indoor space are completely sterilized to maintain hygiene and the discharged water becomes smoother than the atomized state. Technical task is to allow a wide spread to the room to control the humidity.

A humidifier comprising a nozzle case to be guided, a blower in communication with the nozzle case forcibly discharging the atomized water to the outside, and a discharge part installed on the nozzle case to adjust the discharge direction of the atomized water. A stepped portion is formed in the upper inner circumference, and an evaporator is installed and fixed on the upper surface of the stepped portion by applying heat to the atomized water by the ultrasonic oscillator, and a screen plate made of a mesh shape protecting the evaporator is installed on the top of the evaporator. In addition, the evaporator is a heating element that generates heat by electricity, and on each side of the heating element An electrode plate connected to the wires for supplying electricity to the heating element, an insulating tape attached to the outer surface of the electrode plate to surround the entire electrode plate, and installed on the outer surface of the insulating tape to protect the heating element and the electrode plate.
