Is formed.

The blower 20 is installed inside the housing 10, and the inlet port 21 in which the phytoncide emitted from the phytoncide oil 60 is sucked and the phytoncide sucked in the inlet 21 are discharge ports 11 of the housing 10. A discharge port (not shown) is formed to be discharged to the discharge port, and a fan (not shown) is rotated toward the discharge port (not shown) or the discharge port 11 to flow air containing the phytoncide toward the discharge port (not shown). do. In addition, a power cable 23 is provided to receive power required for operation of a fan (not shown).

The power cable 23 is stored inside the housing 10 when the blower 20 is deactivated. When the blower 20 is operated, the power cable 23 is drawn out through the outlet 16 of the housing 10 to supply power. Connected. That is, when the air purification system using the phytoncide is not connected to the power source, the air purification system using the phytoncide has a neat appearance since the power cable 23 is stored inside the housing 10.

On the other hand, the air purification system using the phytoncide of the present invention may not be provided with a blower (20).

Figure 4 is a structural diagram showing the inside of the air purification system using a phytoncide in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 4, the air purification system using a phytoncide according to another embodiment of the present invention is not provided with a blower, the air introduced through the inlet port 17 of the housing 10 is filtered by the indoor air circulation device It is filtered while passing through 50 and is discharged into the room through the discharge port 11 of the housing 10 together with the phytoncide oil 60 in the housing 10 and the like.

1 to 4, the door 30 is formed on one surface of the housing 10, preferably on one side of the housing 10. The door 30 may have an inlet (not shown) through which air is introduced when the blower 20 is operated.

The door 30 is hinged to one side of the housing 10 to open and close in a case shape, and the phytoncide oil 60 is stored inside the door 30, that is, inside the housing 10 to store the door 30. Through the phytoncide oil refinery 60 can be replaced. The door 30 may be formed in the form of a drawer as well as a hinged hinged form.

The filter device 50 is installed in the housing 10 and includes a pre-filter 51, a medium filter 52, a hepa filter 53, a deodorizing filter 54, a photocatalyst filter 55 and an ultraviolet lamp 56. It is configured to filter the outside air introduced through the inlet 17 of the housing 10 or the inlet (not shown) of the door 30.

The prefilter 51 is 10 μm or more, including large particles in the air flowing into the inlet 17 of the housing 10 or the inlet (not shown) of the door 30, for example, lint, hair, agglomerated dust, and the like. Filter foreign material. The medium filter 52 adsorbs fine dust, dust mites, etc., which are not filtered out of the prefilter 51, and the HEPA filter 53 filters foreign substances such as fine dust, pollen, bacteria, tobacco smoke and the like by 0.1 μm or more and deodorizes them. The filter 54 adsorbs gaseous contaminants such as odors in the air.

The photocatalyst filter 55 is composed of a photocatalyst, for example, nano-sized titanium dioxide (TiO ₂ ) coated on a filter paper, and photocatalytic oxidation is caused by ultraviolet irradiation of an ultraviolet lamp 56 installed inside the housing 10. Generated and decontaminated, sterilized, antibacterial and deodorized. The photocatalyst filter 55 may decompose volatile organic compounds (VOC), bacteria and ozone.

The filter device of the air purification and cleaning system using the phytoncide of the present invention includes an electrostatic precipitating filter (not shown), so that the electrostatic precipitating method may be applied instead of the above-described filter purifying method. Electrostatic precipitating filter is a device that makes electricity by applying electric field to gas, especially dust suspended in air, and collects particles with electrostatic force to clean the gas.It is a kind of wet and dry type according to the method of removing dust collected in dust collector. And there are vertical and horizontal depending on the flow of gas.

An ion generating device (not shown) is installed inside the housing 10 and generates only positive and negative ions or negative ions. For example, the ionizer may generate only negative ions to change indoor air into fresh air such as a forest. In another example, the ionizer may release a large amount of positive and negative ions. In this case, a large amount of cations and anions generated by the ion generating device is released into the room together with the phytoncide, and the dust or bacteria floating in the indoor air is absorbed by the electrostatic force again, and the inlet port 17 of the housing 10 or Through the inlet (not shown) of the door 30 is introduced into the air purification system using the phytoncide. At this time, the introduced foreign matter is filtered by the filter device 50, the indoor air can be purified.

The humidity control device (not shown) is installed inside the housing 10 to generate water vapor, and may be operated by any one of a heater method, an ultrasonic method, or a natural evaporation method.

Looking at the operation of the air purification system using a phytoncide according to the present invention having the configuration as described above are as follows.

When the air purification system using the phytoncide according to the present invention is disposed in an indoor space without a power connection, the phytoncide is emitted from the housing 10 made of a tree generating the phytoncide, and the indoor air is purified by the phytoncide and the mind and body of the occupant This can be stabilized.

At this time, when the concentration of the phytoncide emitted is increased, the power cable 23 is drawn out and connected to the power supply through the outlet 16 formed in the housing 10 of the air purification system using the phytoncide. When the blower 20, which is powered through the power cable 23, is operated, the phytoncide emitted from the phytoncide oil refinery 60 stored in the housing 10 opens the inlet 21 and the outlet of the blower 20. Through the discharge port 11 of the housing 10 through the discharge to the interior space. Here, the phytoncide oil 60 may be replaced through the door 30.

In addition, the ion generator (not shown) and the humidity control device (not shown) which are connected to the blower 20 and operated by the power supply of the power cable 23 are driven to generate positive and negative ions, negative ions, and water vapor. Is released into the room. At this time, the positive and negative ions are adsorbed by the electrostatic force, such as dust and bacteria, and the positive and negative ions adsorbed by the foreign matter are mixed in the indoor air and penetrate the inlet 17 of the housing 10 or the inlet (not shown) of the door 30. Pass through the filter device (50). The foreign matter is filtered while passing through the filter device 50, and the purified air is discharged back into the room containing water vapor, cations, anions, and phytoncide. By this circulation operation, indoor air is kept clean by purifying, humidifying and supplying phytoncide, and the phytoncide effect is further improved in an unpolluted room.

According to the air purification system using the phytoncide of the present invention described above, the housing is made of a tree that generates the phytoncide, and the air purification is performed by the phytoncide even when the power supply is not connected. The air purifying effect of the phytoncide is added to the air purifying effect of the device, thereby improving the air purifying power.

In addition, according to the air purification system using the phytoncide of the present invention, the phytoncide is released and the sedative effect of the phytoncide improves various skin diseases, atopic dermatitis, respiratory diseases, rhinitis, etc. Function is increased. In addition, the ion generating device is provided to improve the dust removal effect by the positive and negative ions or mental and physical stability effect of the occupants by the negative ion, and the humidity control device is provided to maintain the indoor humidity properly.

The air purification system using the phytoncide of the present invention configured and operated as described above may be provided in a kimchi refrigerator or a wine refrigerator to produce a aging effect, and may be provided in a rice barrel to control humidity, particularly in an auditorium or a church. It can be set up in lecture halls and social colleges used to make the speaker less tired during speech or preaching.
