1, 2A and 2B, the damping cap of the floating humidifier 120 according to an embodiment of the present invention is the body 10, the suction unit 110, the discharge unit 120 and the collision induction unit 130.

The body 10 may be a hollow hollow body having a cylindrical shape having a circular cross section therein. In the internal space of the body 10, the flow of the humidifying particles discharged from the floating humidifier 120 may be made.

The body 10 may be coupled to the outlet of the floating humidifier 120 so that the humidifying particles discharged from the floating humidifier 120 may pass directly through.

To this end, the body 10 may have a fixing part 12 protruding along the outer circumference.

In one example, the body 10 may be inserted into the fixed portion 12 is fixed into the outlet of the floating humidifier 120. In this case, a locking jaw (not shown) or a clamp (not shown) may be formed on the inner circumference of the outlet of the floating humidifier 120 as a member (see “22” in FIG. 7) for fixing the fixing part 12. .

As another example, the body 10 may be mounted to the fixing part 12 is fixed to the upper end of the outlet of the floating humidifier 120. In order for the body 10 to rest more stably on the upper end of the outlet of the floating humidifier 120, the length of the fixing portion 12 protrudes from the body 10 is between the outer circumference and the inner circumference of the outlet of the floating humidifier 120 It is preferable to implement the same or greater than the length.

The suction part 110 may be formed to be opened around the lower portion of the body 10.

That is, the suction part 110 may be formed by opening a part of the circumference at the bottom of the body 10, and in this embodiment, two suction parts 110 may be formed in the body 10, It is not limited.

The suction unit 110 may suck the humidified particles generated from the floating humidifier 120, and thus, the humidified particles may move to the internal space of the body 10.

Discharge part 120 is formed as the upper portion of the body 10 is opened, in consideration of the degree of humidification can be partially opened or the whole can be opened.

The discharge unit 120 may discharge some particles that do not collide with the collision induction unit 130 to be described later among the humidified particles sucked from the suction unit 110.

The collision inducing unit 130 may extend from a lower portion of the body 10 in the space 14 to induce collision of some humidified particles.

That is, the collision inducing unit 130 may play a role of inducing collision of particles thicker than air particles among the humidifying particles sucked from the suction unit 110.

Due to the characteristics of the floating humidifier 120 used to float on the water surface, the vibration occurs during the driving compared to the general fixed humidifier, the direction of the humidifying outlet may be distorted. In this case, a problem arises in that the large-sized particles of the discharged humidified particles do not fall vertically but stick out to the surroundings.

In order to alleviate this problem, the present invention may implement the collision induction unit 130 to block the discharge of large particles.

Hereinafter, the collision inducing unit 130 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3A to 3C, 4, and 5.

For reference, FIG. 3A is a front cross-sectional view illustrating the collision induction part according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 3B and 3C are views illustrating the height of the collision induction part according to an embodiment of the present invention. 4 is a front sectional view illustrating a modification of the collision induction part according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a view illustrating another modification of the collision induction part according to an embodiment of the present invention. This is a sectional view shown for the sake of brevity.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the collision inducing unit 130 may include a first protrusion 132 extending from the lower portion of the body 10 toward the upper portion.

The first protrusion 132 may have a concave shape toward the discharge part 120 and may be protruded. Specifically, the first protrusion 132 may protrude in the form of converging toward the center of the body 10. Accordingly, the collision inducing unit 130 may have an inclined structure that becomes narrower toward the top.

Here, the height of the first protrusion 132 may be implemented in consideration of the normal humidification function and the anti-splash function of the thick humidified particles.

That is, when the first protrusion 132 has a relatively low height, blocking of coarse humidified particles is not effectively performed. On the contrary, when the first protrusion 132 has a relatively high height, the first protrusion 132 has a relatively high height. It also blocks small humidifying particles, which can reduce their effectiveness.

To this end, the height of the first protrusion 132 may have a height corresponding to a predetermined threshold range based on the height of the suction unit 110.

The threshold range may satisfy 0.8 s <= h <= 1.2 s. Here, s is the height of the suction unit 110, h is the height of the first protrusion 132.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 3B, the height of the first protrusion 132 may be implemented by a predetermined length lower than the height of the suction unit 110. For example, the height of the first protrusion 132 may be implemented as 80% of the height of the suction unit 110.

As another example, as illustrated in FIG. 3C, the height of the first protrusion 132 may be higher by a predetermined length than the height of the suction unit 110. For example, the height of the first protrusion 132 may be implemented as 120% of the height of the suction unit 110.

Due to the structure as described above, the thicker particles than the air particles among the humidified particles sucked from the suction unit 110 is prevented from being discharged by hitting the first protrusion 132, it is possible to prevent the large particles from popping out. .

On the other hand, the first protrusion 132 may guide the particles smaller than the air particles of the suction humidified particles to facilitate the flow flow.

As shown in FIG. 4, the collision inducing unit 130 may further include a second protrusion 134 extending from a lower portion of the body 10 toward a direction in which the floating humidifier 120 is coupled.

The second protrusion 134 may extend in a direction opposite to the direction in which the discharge part 120 is formed. Specifically, the second protrusion 134 may protrude in the form of converging toward the center of the body 10. Accordingly, the collision inducing unit 130 may have an inclined structure that becomes narrower toward the lower side.

Due to the above structure, before the humidifying particles are sucked into the suction unit 110, some of the humidifying particles coarse than the air particles collide with the second protrusion 134, thereby primarily discharging some of the thick humidifying particles. You can block.

In addition, the remaining particles that do not hit the second protrusion 134 of the coarse humidified particles may be sucked into the suction unit 110 and secondly hit the first protrusion 132. Accordingly, the floating humidifier 120 can be used more conveniently by blocking the discharge of the coarse humidified particles in a double.

As shown in FIG. 5, the body 10 may include a space portion 14 formed as a portion of the inner side of the collision inducing portion 130 is dug up.

The space 14 is an empty space formed when the lower portion of the collision inducing portion 130 is recessed, and may be recessed to correspond to the direction and shape of the first protrusion 132 protruding. Accordingly, the space 14 may have an inclined structure that is narrowed toward the top.

Due to the above structure, before the humidifying particles are sucked into the suction unit 110, some of the humidifying particles coarse than the air particles flow into the space 14 and collide with each other, thereby primarily discharging some of the thick humidifying particles. Can be blocked by

In addition, the remaining particles that do not hit the space 14 among the coarse humidified particles may be sucked into the suction unit 110 and may secondarily hit the first protrusion 132.

The first sub collision guide part 142 may be formed to have a predetermined length on the collision guide part 130, and may be disposed in a direction crossing the longitudinal direction of the body 10.

Accordingly, the remaining particles that do not hit the first protrusion 132 among the coarse humidified particles collide with the first sub collision inducing unit 142, thereby preventing the coarse humidified particles from being discharged.

In addition, by changing the flow flow so that the thick humidifying particles hit the first protrusion 132 does not move in a direction other than downward, it is possible to more effectively block the discharge of the thick humidifying particles.

In this case, both end portions of the first sub collision guide part 142 may be bent toward the lower side of the body 10. That is, both ends of the first sub collision inducing unit 142 may have a shape bent downward.

As a result, the flow flow is bent so as to move downward as much as possible of the humidifying particles hit by the first sub-impact inducing part 142, thereby doubling the effect of blocking the discharge of the thick humidifying particles.

For reference, although the first sub collision inducing unit 142 is implemented to have a rectangular shape in cross section, the present invention is not limited thereto and may be implemented in various shapes such as an ellipse shape and a square shape.

Referring to Figure 6b, the damping cap of the floating humidifier 120 according to another embodiment of the present invention is the body 10, the suction unit 110, the discharge unit 120, the collision induction unit 130 and the second The sub collision inducing unit 144 may be included.

The second sub collision inducing unit 144 may be formed to have a predetermined length on the collision inducing unit 130 and may be disposed in the longitudinal direction of the body 10.

Accordingly, the remaining particles that do not hit the first protrusion 132 among the coarse humidified particles collide with the first sub collision inducing unit 142, thereby preventing the coarse humidified particles from being discharged.

In addition, the smaller than the air particles of the suction humidified particles may be guided toward the discharge unit 120 to facilitate the flow flow.

As shown in Figure 7, the damping cap of the floating humidifier 120 according to embodiments of the present invention may be combined with the outlet of the floating humidifier 120.

The damping cap according to embodiments of the present invention may be fixed and inserted into the outlet of the floating humidifier 120 by a fixing part 12 protruding along the outer circumference of the body 10. At this time, a locking jaw (not shown) or a clamp (not shown) may be formed on the inner circumference of the outlet of the floating humidifier 120 as the member 22 for fixing the fixing part 12.
