Humidifier for absorbing and evaporating water

The present invention relates to an absorption evaporative humidifier, and more particularly, an absorption evaporator having an absorber and a heat generating element provided with a heat sink is formed on an upper portion of a tank in which water supplied from a water tank in the humidifier is stored. As it is sucked up by the gas and is instantly vaporized by the heat generated by the heating element, it is released, thereby completely sterilizing the bacteria contained in the water discharged into the indoor space in two stages while simultaneously storing the stored water in the tank at 20 ° C to 30 ° C. The present invention relates to an absorption evaporative humidifier which maintains a temperature so that there is no risk of burns even if the humidifier falls down.

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, in the case of the ultrasonic humidifier, because the ultrasonic wave oscillates the liquid water by the ultrasonic oscillator and releases the water particles in the atomized state, it not only lowers the temperature of the indoor air but also does not properly clean the humidifier or the water tank for a long time. There is a fatal problem in the health of the frail patients and infants due to bacteria that grow in the stored water in the tank, such as when the water is stored in the water and the old humidifier.

Due to such a problem, conventionally, an electrothermal humidifier has been preferred to an ultrasonic humidifier, and the electrothermal humidifier according to the prior art, as shown in FIG. 1, has a flow path from the water tank 3 to the inside of the main body 2. 4) a water tank 5 through which water is supplied, a heater 6 installed inside the water tank to heat and vaporize water in the water tank, and a nozzle case 8 through which water vaporized by the heater 6 is guided. And a discharge part 10 installed on the nozzle case 8 to adjust the discharge direction of the vaporized water.

However, the heat transfer humidifier according to the related art configured as described above is supplied from the water tank 3 installed in the main body 2 and stored in the water tank 5 by the heater 6 made of a heating wire or the like. The bacteria contained in the water can be completely sterilized, but the water stored in the water tank is heated to a temperature of about 90 ° C to 100 ° C by the heater 6 at this time. Since the hot water inadvertently knocked down the humidifier due to carelessness, there was a problem that if the water in the tank pours a fatal burn.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention installs an absorption evaporator having a heating element provided with an absorber and a heat sink on an upper portion of a water tank in which water supplied from a water tank in a humidifier is stored. By being vaporized by the generated heat to be discharged instantaneously, bacteria contained in the water released into the indoor space are completely sterilized in two stages, while the stored water in the tank is maintained at 20 ° C to 30 ° C. The technical task is to ensure that there is no risk of burns even if the player falls down.

In order to achieve the above technical problem, the present invention provides a water tank in which water is supplied from a water tank through a flow pipe to a body, a nozzle case for guiding water particles in the water tank, and an upper portion of the nozzle case. In the humidifier comprising a discharge unit for adjusting the discharge direction, a stepped portion is formed on the upper inner circumference of the nozzle case, an absorption evaporation device is installed and fixed to the upper surface of the stepped portion to absorb, heat and vaporize the water in the tank, the absorption At the top of the evaporator, a screen plate made of a mesh shape is provided to protect the absorption evaporation device. The absorption evaporation device is provided with a heating element that generates heat by electricity, and is installed on both sides of the heating element, respectively, and supplies electricity to the heating element.
