Next, the blower system 1 of Embodiment 1 will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram of the blower system 1 viewed from the fourth side surface 1f.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first air blower 102 sends out the first air F1 generated by the generator 101 and containing the specific component CP. The first wind F1 sent by the first blower 102 and the second wind F2 sent by the second blower 202 different from the first blower 102 join. Therefore, the specific component CP contained in the first wind F1 can also be contained in the second wind F2 to diffuse the specific component CP. As a result, while sufficiently generating the specific component CP, it is possible to carry the specific component CP to a range that could not be reached.

In general, a specific component spreads according to the area of the outlet. Further, even after flowing out from the outlet, the specific component may be in a lumped state depending on the area of the outlet. However, as in the present embodiment, when the first wind F1 containing the specific component CP joins the second wind F2, the concentrated specific component CP is stirred and diffused by the second wind F2. Therefore, the specific component CP can be diffused over a wide range, and the specific component CP can be delivered to a range that could not be reached.

A specific component CP is an aromatic component, deodorant component, sterilizing component, ion, or ozone. The merging of the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 containing the specific components CP stirs the specific components CP. Thus, a plurality of specific components CP spread out. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently diffuse a plurality of specific components CP in the space in which the blower system 1 is installed. As a result, the specific component CP spreads efficiently in the space, making it easy to distribute the specific component CP throughout the space.

For example, when the specific component CP is an aromatic component, the generating unit 101 generates an aromatic component. Fragrant ingredients are, for example, aromatic compounds. Aroma compounds are, for example, alcohols, aldehydes, amines, esters, ethers, ketones, lactones, terpenes or thiols. Then, the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 containing the aromatic component join together to stir the aromatic component. Therefore, the aromatic component spreads. Therefore, the aromatic component can be efficiently diffused in the space where the air blowing system 1 is installed. As a result, the aromatic component spreads efficiently in the space, making it easy to distribute the aromatic component throughout the space.

Further, for example, when the specific component CP is a deodorant component, the generator 101 generates a deodorant component. A deodorant component is, for example, a deodorant, a deodorant, or a deodorant. The deodorizing component suppresses, for example, fatty acid-based odors, nitrogen compound-based odors, or sulfur compound-based odors. The first wind F1 and the second wind F2 containing the deodorizing component join together to stir the deodorizing component. Therefore, the deodorant component spreads. Therefore, the deodorizing component can be efficiently diffused in the space where the air blowing system 1 is installed. As a result, the deodorizing component spreads efficiently in the space, making it easy to distribute the deodorizing component throughout the space.

Also, when the specific component CP is a bactericidal component, the generator 101 generates a bactericidal component. Antiseptic components, for example, inhibit the growth of microorganisms or viruses. Bactericidal components are, for example, alcohols. The first wind F1 and the second wind F2 containing the sterilizing component join together to stir the sterilizing component. Therefore, the bactericidal component spreads. Therefore, the sterilizing component can be efficiently diffused in the space where the air blowing system 1 is installed. As a result, the sterilizing component spreads efficiently in the space, making it easy to distribute the sterilizing component throughout the space.

Also, when the specific component CP is an ion, the generator 101 is, for example, a discharger. The discharge unit discharges to generate ions. Ions may include cations and anions. Then, the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 containing cations and anions join together to stir the cations and anions. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the mutual reaction between cations and anions. Therefore, positive ions and negative ions can be efficiently diffused in the space where the air blowing system 1 is installed. As a result, the cations and anions spread efficiently in the space, making it easy to distribute the cations and anions in the space. Alternatively, only negative ions may be generated from the ions, and the negative ions are stirred by the merging of the first wind F1 and the second wind F2. The discharge unit may generate charged fine particle water containing a large amount of ions, radicals, and acidic components by discharging. Acidic components are, for example, nitrate ions and nitrogen oxides.

Further, when the specific component CP is ozone, the generator 101 is, for example, a discharger. The discharge unit discharges to generate ozone. Ozone is stirred by the 1st wind F1 and the 2nd wind F2 containing ozone joining. Therefore, ozone spreads. Therefore, ozone can be efficiently diffused in the space where the blower system 1 is installed. As a result, the ozone spreads efficiently in the space, and it becomes easy to distribute the ozone in the space.

The first air blower 102 is arranged outside the second air blower 200 that blows out the second air F2. Therefore, the business operator who installs the first blower section 102 can freely set the position of the first blower section 102 . That is, the first air blower 102 can be installed at a position where the first air F1 sent from the first air blower 102 can easily join the second air F2. In addition, the first air blower 102 can be installed at a position where the first air F1 sent from the first air blower 102 is easily stirred by the second air F2. As a result, the first air blower 102 can be arranged at a position desired by the operator.

The first blower 102 blows out the first wind F1 at a wind speed lower than that of the second wind F2. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first wind F1 from acting as resistance to the movement of the second wind F2. That is, the second wind F2 can suppress a decrease in wind speed due to the joining of the first wind F1. As a result, the specific component CP can be efficiently carried by the second wind F2.

The first air blower 102 blows out the first wind F1 in a direction intersecting the blowing direction of the second wind F2. Therefore, it becomes easy to merge the first wind F1 with the second wind F2. In addition, the specific component CP contained in the first wind F1 is stirred by the second wind F2. That is, the specific component CP contained in the first wind F1 can be efficiently included in the second wind F2, and the specific component CP can be easily diffused. As a result, the specific component CP can efficiently reach the space in which the blower system 1 is installed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first wind F1 is sent out from the first blower 102 so as to form a predetermined angle θ with respect to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. The predetermined angle θ is, for example, an angle of “90 degrees or less”. In other words, the first air blower 102 blows out the first wind F1 so as to form an angle θ of 90 degrees or less with respect to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. Therefore, the pressure loss when the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 join can be reduced. As a result, it becomes easier to merge the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 to efficiently include the specific component CP contained in the first wind F1 in the second wind F2.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, the processing executed by the blower system 1 of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 is a diagram schematically showing the first wind F1 and the second wind F2. In the blower system 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the first wind F1 joins the second wind F2.

The first control section 105 controls the first adjustment section 103 . Specifically, the first control unit 105 controls the first adjustment unit 103 so that the first adjustment unit 103 adjusts the sending direction of the first wind F1. More specifically, the first control unit 105 controls the first adjustment unit 103 so that the first adjustment unit 103 adjusts the blowing direction of the first wind F1 according to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. do. Therefore, the first controller 105 can control the first adjuster 103 in accordance with the sending direction of the second wind F2. That is, even if the sending direction of the second wind F2 is changed, the first adjustment unit 103 can be controlled to join the second wind F2 with the first wind F1. As a result, it is possible to prevent the first wind F1 from joining due to the sending direction of the second wind F2.

FIG. 4 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 is in the first posture ST1 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 is in the first posture ST1. be 4 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 is in the second posture ST2 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 is in the second posture ST2. shown in 4 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 is in the third posture ST3 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 is in the third posture ST3. shown in As shown in FIG. 4, the first wind F1 is sent out from the first blower 100 so as to join the second wind F2.

Note that the first posture ST1 to third posture ST3 shown in FIG. 4 are postures in which the first wind F1 can join the second wind F2. may not coincide with the first posture ST1 of . In addition, second posture ST2 of first adjustment section 103 and second posture ST2 of second adjustment section 203 do not have to match. Also, the third posture ST3 of the first adjusting section 103 and the third posture ST3 of the second adjusting section 203 do not have to match.

Specifically, the first control unit 105 acquires control information for the second adjustment unit 203 from the second communication unit 207 of the second blower device 200 . More specifically, first control section 105 controls first communication section 107 so that first communication section 107 acquires control information from second adjustment section 203 . Then, first control section 105 controls first adjustment section 103 based on the control information.

For example, when the control information indicates that second adjustment section 203 is adjusted to first attitude ST1, first control section 105 responds to second adjustment section 203 being adjusted to first attitude ST1 by: The first adjuster 103 is controlled so that the first adjuster 103 assumes the first posture ST1. Specifically, first control section 105 causes first adjustable feather 104 to assume first posture ST1. That is, the first control unit 105 controls the first adjustment unit 103 so that the first adjustment unit 103 adjusts the blowing direction of the first wind F1 according to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. Therefore, the first controller 105 can control the first adjuster 103 in accordance with the sending direction of the second wind F2.

Further, when the control information indicates that second adjustment section 203 is to be adjusted to first attitude ST1 to third attitude ST3, first control section 105 determines that second adjustment section 203 is adjusted to first attitude ST1. Accordingly, first adjustment section 103 is controlled so that first adjustment section 103 assumes first posture ST1. Then, in response to the fact that second adjustment section 203 has been adjusted to second posture ST2, first control section 105 controls first adjustment section 103 so that first adjustment section 103 assumes second posture ST2. . Furthermore, in response to the second adjustment section 203 being adjusted to the third attitude ST3, the first control section 105 controls the first adjustment section 103 so that the first adjustment section 103 assumes the third attitude ST3. . That is, even if the second adjustment unit 203 swings to change the blowing direction, the first control unit 105 changes the blowing direction of the first wind F1 according to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. The first adjuster 103 is controlled so that the first adjuster 103 adjusts. Therefore, the first controller 105 can control the first adjuster 103 in accordance with the sending direction of the second wind F2.

Next, with reference to FIG. 5, the processing performed by the blower system 1 of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 5 is a flow chart of processing executed by the blower system 1 . As shown in FIG. 5, the process executed by the blower system 1 includes steps S101 to S103.

In step S<b>101 , the first control unit 105 controls the first communication unit 107 so that the first communication unit 107 receives control information from the second blower device 200 . Then, the first control unit 105 acquires control information for the second blower device 200 from the first communication unit 107 . The process proceeds to step S101.

In step S102, the first control unit 105 controls the first adjustment unit 103 so that the first adjustment unit 103 adjusts the blowing direction of the first wind F1 according to the blowing direction of the second wind F2. The process proceeds to step S103.

In step S103, the first control unit 105 determines whether or not the termination condition is satisfied based on the control information. If the end information is not satisfied (No in step S103), the process returns to step S101. If the end condition is satisfied (Yes in step S103), the process ends.

[Modification 1]
Next, Modification 1 of the blower system 1 of Embodiment 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 6. FIG. Modification 1 differs from Embodiment 1 mainly in the position of the first blower device 100 . Differences of the first modified example from the present embodiment will be described below.

FIG. 6 is a diagram schematically showing the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 in Modification 1 of Embodiment 1. FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the first blower 100 is located on the first side surface 1c of the second blower 200. As shown in FIG.

The first air blower 102 of Modification 1 sends out the first wind F1 generated by the generator 101 and containing the specific component CP. The first wind F1 sent by the first blower 102 and the second wind F2 sent by the second blower 202 join. Therefore, the specific component CP contained in the first wind F1 can also be contained in the second wind F2 to diffuse the specific component CP. As a result, the specific component CP can be carried to a range that cannot be reached by the first blower 100 alone.

FIG. 6 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 is in the fourth posture ST4 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 is in the fourth posture ST4. be 6 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 is in the fifth posture ST5 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 is in the fifth posture ST5. shown in 6 schematically shows the first wind F1 when the first adjustment unit 103 takes the sixth posture ST6 and the second wind F2 when the second adjustment unit 203 takes the sixth posture ST6. shown in As shown in FIG. 6, the first wind F1 and the second wind F2 join. Further, in the blower system 1 of the modified example 1, as shown in FIG. 6, the second wind F2 joins the first wind F1.

Note that the fourth posture ST4 to sixth posture ST6 shown in FIG. 6 are postures in which the first wind F1 can join the second wind F2. may not coincide with the fourth posture ST4. Also, the fifth orientation ST5 of the first adjustment section 103 and the fifth orientation ST5 of the second adjustment section 203 do not have to match. Further, sixth posture ST6 of first adjustment section 103 and sixth posture ST6 of second adjustment section 203 do not have to match.

Specifically, the second control unit 205 controls the second communication unit 207 so that the second communication unit 207 acquires the control information of the first adjustment unit 103 . Second control section 205 then controls second adjustment section 203 based on the control information.

For example, when the control information indicates that the first adjustment section 103 is adjusted to the fourth attitude ST4, the second control section 205 adjusts the first adjustment section 103 to the fourth attitude ST4. The second adjuster 203 is controlled so that the second adjuster 203 assumes the fourth posture ST4. Specifically, second control section 205 causes second adjustment feather 204 to assume fourth posture ST4. That is, the second control unit 205 controls the second adjustment unit 203 so that the second adjustment unit 203 adjusts the blowing direction of the second wind F2 according to the blowing direction of the first wind F1. Therefore, the second controller 205 can control the second adjuster 203 in accordance with the sending direction of the first wind F1.

Further, when the control information indicates that first adjustment section 103 is adjusted to fourth attitude ST4 to sixth attitude ST6, second control section 205 determines that first adjustment section 103 has been adjusted to fourth attitude ST4. Accordingly, second adjustment section 203 is controlled so that second adjustment section 203 assumes fourth posture ST4.
