RU206598U1 - AIR HUMIDIFIER AND DISINFECTANT - Google Patents

Abstract

The claimed humidifier and air purifier, consisting of a housing with an inlet for the fan impeller formed on its upper surface, a set of partitions that form an air flow channel, and a lower part used as a water tank, with an electric motor with a fan placed inside, a humidification unit passing air, a water disinfection unit containing electrodes to which voltage is supplied, a gear system for driving a humidification unit, a device control unit. A feature of the claimed device is that the water disinfection unit is made in the form of a module containing electrodes, closed with a protective cover with openings for the free passage of water.

Description

The claimed utility model relates to household kitchen appliances, in particular to air humidification and disinfection devices.

State of the art.

Several types of humidifiers are currently known. Some of them evaporate water and combine it with air. The other part does not heat the water, but sprays it into the air using an ultrasonic mechanical device. Another well-known type of humidifier evaporates water from a damp surface, periodically replenished with water.

For example, US8313569 discloses a device design that allows air to be purified by blowing it between two counter-rotating drums with wet surfaces.

Most devices for similar purposes use this principle to connect the air passing through the device with water in the form of microdroplets.

All existing technical solutions have significant drawbacks, namely, these devices require increased maintenance, since the water left inside after a while tends to "bloom" due to the rapid multiplication of bioflora.

Similar devices for different fields of application are disclosed in documents No. RU2569771 2258557, 178769.

For example, a device for a water disinfectant built into a humidifier according to RU patent No. 2406038 is known. The device contains electrodes immersed in water, to which voltage is applied.

The disadvantage of the device is that the electrodes are not protected from touching during operation and maintenance of the device.

The device disclosed in document No. 2406038 has been selected as a prototype.

The technical result achieved by the claimed utility model is to increase the protection against electric shock.

1.1 - upper part of the humidifier body.

1.2 - the lower part of the humidifier body.

The purpose of the utility model is to improve operational safety.

SHORT DESCRIPTION

The claimed device is household for purifying air humidification.

The device includes a fan, a humidification device driven by a fan motor, a water disinfection device, a water tank, which is also the lower part of the case. The upper part of the case, where the fan is fixed, contains a control unit and a system of partitions that form an air flow channel.

The dampening device consists of a shaft with a package of thin disks fixed on it at small intervals, the surface of which is treated to make it hydrophilic. The disc shaft rotates slowly, the discs are partially submerged in water.

The disinfection device consists of two electrodes immersed in water, to which the minimum voltage sufficient for disinfection is applied. The electrodes are covered with a cover, which has round or slot-like holes for the free passage of water.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The claimed technical result has been achieved in a device for humidification and air purification.

The device includes, in different versions, a centrifugal or axial fan (not shown), a humidification device 2, mainly driven by a fan motor, a water disinfection device 5, a water tank, which is at the same time the lower 1.2 part of the housing 1. The upper 1.1 part of the housing 1 with a circular recess formed on its upper surface, which is an inlet device for a fan impeller (not shown), contains a control unit (not shown) and a system of partitions (not shown) that form channels for air movement.

The humidification device 2 consists of a housing with an electric motor with a fan placed inside, the lower part of the housing, which is a container for water, and a shaft 4 with a package of thin disks 3 fixed to it, the surface of which is treated to make it hydrophilic. Discs are predominantly plastic.

The whole unit is installed so that during operation the pack of discs 3 is partially submerged in water. Thanks to the drive, it rotates slowly. The surface of the disks periodically turns out to be either in water or in air. Discs blown with air from a fan humidify the air.

The disinfection device consists of a closed module with openings for the free passage of water. The module contains electrodes 6 immersed in water, which are energized, closed by a plastic decorative cover 5 with holes for free water flow. The voltage is set to the minimum sufficient for the disinfection process to work, so as not to affect the safety of the device. Water, mixing in the container, sufficiently enters the disinfectant, which makes it possible to obtain a sufficient disinfecting effect. For electrical safety, the electrodes are covered with a plastic decorative cover.

The device works as follows. The capacity of the lower part of the body is filled with water. In this case, the disks 3 of the humidifier and the electrodes 6 of the disinfectant are partially immersed in the water. When the power is turned on, the fan starts to blow air inside the device. The humidifier rotates slowly. The discs 3 of the humidifier are covered with moisture. The air washes over the moistened discs 3 and is humidified. The electrodes 6 of the disinfectant are washed with water and disinfect it, destroying the harmful bioflora. Decorative cover 5 protects against accidental contact with live electrodes, increasing the electrical safety of the device.

The humidifier discs and disinfectant are cleaned from time to time.

The device is industrially applicable, since each part can be manufactured on industrial equipment under conditions of large-scale and mass production.
