Description

Humidifying air cleaner {Humidifying air cleaner}

The present invention relates to a humidified air purifier.

An air purifier is understood as a device that inhales and purifies contaminated air and then exhausts the purified air. As an example, the air cleaner may include a blower for introducing external air into the air cleaner and a filter capable of filtering dust or bacteria in the air.

A humidifier is understood as a device that sucks in air, humidifies it, and discharges it to provide moisture to the air. Conventional humidifiers are divided into a vibrating type that atomizes water from a diaphragm and discharges it into the air, and a natural evaporation type that naturally evaporates from a humidifying filter.

The natural evaporative humidifier rotates the disk using a driving force, and a disk-type humidifier in which water is naturally evaporated from the surface of the disk in the air, and a humidifying filter-type humidifier that is naturally evaporated by air flowing in a humidified medium soaked with water. Are distinguished.

In the conventional humidifier, some of the air flowing in the humidification process was filtered by the filter. However, the conventional humidifier has a problem in that the function of purifying air is weak because the humidifying function is main.

In recent years, humidifying air purifiers have been developed that add a humidifying function to an air cleaner.

In connection with such an electric humidifying air purifier, the following prior art is introduced.

1. Korean Registered Patent No. (Registration Date): 10-1765663 (December 30, 2011)
