Hereinafter, the flow path structure and the movement path of the air of the humidifying dehumidifying multifunctional composite device of the present invention configured as described above are as follows.
First, in the humidification operation, as shown in FIG. 30, the dehumidification damper 720 is closed, the humidification damper 730 is opened, and the filter damper 810 is opened.
In this state, the humidifying passage is humidified while the outside air is introduced through the humidifying suction port 123 to pass through the humidifying damper 730 while passing through the disc assembly 250, and passes through the humidifying damper 730. One humidified air passes through the filter damper 810 and the filter 890 to provide a path through which the discharge port 113 is discharged.
That is, in the humidifying operation, outside air flows into the water tank 200 from both side surfaces of the lower portion of the main body 100 through the humidifying suction port 123, and the humidified state is humidified while passing through the disk assembly 250. The humidified air passes through the open humidification damper 730 to move to the upper rear side of the main body 100.
At this time, the filter damper 810 is open, so that part of the humidified air passes through the filter damper 810, and the remainder of the humidified air passes through the two filters 890. Therefore, even in the humidification operation, a part of the air passes through the filter 890, so that some degree of filtration can be achieved.
The humidified air that has passed through the filter damper 810 and the filter 890 is discharged through the air outlet duct 900 through the blowing duct 900.
Next, in the clean humidification operation, as shown in FIG. 31, the dehumidification damper 720 is closed, the humidification damper 730 is opened, and the filter damper 810 is closed.
In this state, the outside of the clean humidifying flow path is introduced into the humidified air inlet 123, the outside air is humidified while passing through the disk assembly 250, and passes through the humidification damper 730 The humidifying air passing through the humidification damper 730 is filtered while passing through the filter 890, and the humidifying and filtering air passing through the filter 890 provides a path for discharging through the discharge port 113. .

The humidified air passes through the open humidification damper 730 to move to the upper rear side of the main body 100.
At this time, since the filter damper 810 is closed, the humidifying air is split into both sides, and the filtration is performed while passing through the two filters 890, respectively. The filtered clean humidifying air moves to the rear side of the main body 100 and passes through the blowing duct 900 to be discharged through the discharge port 113 on the upper surface.
Next, in the dehumidification operation, as shown in FIG. 32, the humidification damper 730 is closed, the dehumidification damper 720 is opened, and the filter damper 810 is opened.
In this state, the dehumidification flow path is outside the air is introduced through the dehumidification inlet 122, the introduced outside air is dehumidified while passing through the heat exchange unit 600, passes through the dehumidification damper 720, The dehumidified air passing through the dehumidification damper 720 passes through the filter damper 810 and the filter 890 to provide a path for discharging through the discharge port 113.
That is, in the dehumidification operation, outside air flows from both sides of the upper portion of the main body 100 through the dehumidifying inlet 122, and moves along the dehumidifying duct 500 toward the upper front side of the main body 100 to pass through the heat exchange part 600. While dehumidified. The air in the dehumidification state passes through the open dehumidification damper 720 and moves to the upper rear side of the main body 100.
At this time, the filter damper 810 is open so that a part of the dehumidified air passes through the filter damper 810, and the remainder of the dehumidified air passes through the two filters 890. Therefore, even in the dehumidification operation, a part of the air passes through the filter 890, so that some degree of filtration can be achieved.
The dehumidified air passing through the filter damper 810 and the filter 890 is discharged through the discharge port 113 of the upper surface through the blowing duct 900.
Finally, in the clean dehumidification operation, as shown in FIG. 33, the humidification damper 730 is closed, the dehumidification damper 720 is opened, and the filter damper 810 is closed.
In this state, the outside air is introduced into the clean dehumidification passage through the dehumidification inlet 122, and the introduced outside air is dehumidified while passing through the heat exchange part 600, and passes through the dehumidification damper 720. The dehumidification air passing through the dehumidification damper 720 is filtered while passing through the filter 890, and the dehumidification and filtration air passing through the filter 890 provides a path for discharging through the discharge port 113. .
That is, in the clean dehumidification operation, outside air flows from both sides of the upper portion of the main body 100 through the dehumidifying suction opening 122, and moves to the upper front side of the main body 100 along the dehumidifying duct 500 to move the heat exchange part 600. As it passes, it is in a dehumidified state. The air in the dehumidification state passes through the open dehumidification damper 720 and moves to the upper rear side of the main body 100.
At this time, since the filter damper 810 is closed, the dehumidifying air is split into both sides and passes through the two filters 890, respectively, to perform filtration. The filtered clean dehumidifying air passing through the filter 890 moves to the rear side of the main body 100 and passes through the air blowing duct 900 and is discharged through the discharge port 113 on the upper surface.
The humidifying dehumidifying multi-function composite device configured as described above may provide air in a humidification, clean humidification, dehumidification, and clean dehumidification state according to a situation with one main body 100, thereby increasing user convenience.
In addition, since the humidifier and the dehumidifier do not need to be used separately, the use of the space is less efficient and the cost of the separate purchase is economical.
Furthermore, the damper frame 700, the integrated frame 800, and the blower duct 900 are sequentially formed on the middle support 400 inside the main body 100, so that the space inside the main body 100 can be used efficiently. And the appearance of the main body 100 is compact.
In addition, by using the blower duct 900 in common during humidification, clean humidification, dehumidification, and clean dehumidification operation, an efficient humidification flow path, a clean humidification flow path, a dehumidification flow path, and a clean dehumidification flow path can be formed.
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. It is to be understood that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
