Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention relates to an air washer and a method for cleaning the disk of the air washer. That is, in this embodiment, only the disk assembly can be rotated after mounting the disk cleaning unit on at least one of the air washer main body and the water tank unit. By the cleaning mode of the air washer as described above, the disks of the disk assembly can be automatically and easily cleaned by the brush member of the disk cleaning unit.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air washer and a method for cleaning a disk of the air washer. More particularly, the present invention relates to an air washer and a method of cleaning a disk of the air washer.
Generally, an air washer is a device for humidifying and cleaning air with water through contact between water and air. The air washer can be divided into various types according to the contact method of water and air. For example, an air washer may include a method of spraying air into the air, a method of passing air through a water-wetted filter, and a method of blowing air to a disk in which a water film layer is formed on the surface.
In recent years, the development of disc-type air washer technology is actively under way. The disk-type air washer is advantageous in that noise is small, the size can be reduced, water drops are not seen during humidification, and the filter is not required to be replaced.
For example, a disc-type air washer is disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-0757407 (entitled " Humidifier Disk and Disk Assembly, Date of Issue: 2007.09.04). In Korean Patent No. 10-0757407, the disk assembly is formed by assembling disks in a disk shaft.
Such an air washer may be generated or adhered to the disks of the disk assembly during prolonged use. However, in the past, it was very cumbersome and difficult to clean the discs or remove the foreign substances. Specifically, after the disc assembly was detached from the air washer, the discs had to be cleaned one by one using a cleaning brush.
Embodiments of the present invention provide an air washer and a method of cleaning the disk of the air washer that can very easily and easily clean the disk assembly.
In addition, the embodiment of the present invention provides an air washer capable of automatically and quickly cleaning the disk assembly through the cleaning mode of the air washer, and a method of cleaning the disk of the air washer.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an air washer main body for sucking outside air and discharging air humidified and cleaned by water to the outside, a water receiving portion provided in the air washer main body, A disk assembly provided in the water tub unit so as to be partially rotated in a state that the water contained in the water accommodating portion is partially locked, and a disk assembly disposed in at least one of the water tub unit or the air washer main body, And a disk cleaning unit having a brush member contacting the disk assembly to automatically clean the disk assembly.
That is, when the disc assembly is rotated while the brush member of the disc cleaning unit is in contact with the disc assembly, the contact surface of the disc assembly may be swept away by the brush member.
According to one aspect of the present invention, the disk cleaning unit includes a cleaning unit main body disposed to be detachably attachable to at least one of the water tank unit or the air washer main body, and a cleaning unit main body provided on one side of the cleaning unit main body, And a brush member provided on the other side of the cleaning unit main body and protruding from the cleaning unit main body to the disc assembly so as to be in contact with the disc assembly.
The disk assembly may include a disk shaft rotatably disposed in the water tank unit and a plurality of disks spaced apart from each other along the axial direction on the disk shaft so as to be partially submerged in the water in the water storage unit have. Here, the brush member may be inserted into a clearance space formed between the disks so as to be in contact with both sides of the disks.
According to one aspect of the present invention, the air washer body may be provided with an operation portion for operating the operation of the air washer. The operation unit may be provided with a cleaning button for operating the cleaning mode in which the disk cleaning unit cleans the disk assembly.
In the cleaning mode, only the disk assembly can be rotated while the operation of the air washer main body is stopped.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cleaning method for cleaning a disk assembly by mounting a disk cleaning unit on at least one of an air washer main body or a water tank unit and a cleaning button formed on an operation portion of the air washer main body. The method comprising the steps of:
According to one aspect of the present invention, the performing of the cleaning mode includes detecting whether the cleaning button is operated, rotating the disk assembly only when the operation of the cleaning button is detected, And stopping the disc assembly when the rotation time of the disc assembly reaches a set time, and notifying completion of the cleaning mode through the operation unit of the air washer main body when the disc assembly is stopped .
The method of cleaning an air washer and an air washer according to an embodiment of the present invention is a method of automatically cleaning disks of a disk assembly by operating a disk assembly in a state where the disk cleaning unit is mounted on an air washer main body or a water tank unit have. Thus, the present embodiment can be performed more easily, easily, and quickly than conventional methods of manually cleaning discs of a disc assembly.
In addition, the air washer and the air washer disk cleaning method according to the embodiment of the present invention can be simply applied by adding only the head detachment structure of the disk cleaning unit without greatly changing the structure of the air washer.
The method of cleaning an air washer and an air washer according to an embodiment of the present invention can clean a disk assembly only by pressing a cleaning button after mounting a disk cleaning unit, Etc. can be carried out very easily.
