The environmental temperature is the index which can most directly influence the living environment of people. Compared with the ambient temperature, the ambient humidity is also closely related to the human health and daily life. Medical research shows that when the environment temperature is 20-25 deg.c and the relative humidity reaches 45-65%, the body and thinking of the person are in the optimal state, and the ideal effect is reached no matter what work or rest. However, as the living standard of people is improved, especially as the air conditioner is widely used, the problem caused by the decrease of the indoor humidity is more prominent. Taking air conditioner heating as an example, when the air conditioner operates in a heating mode to enable the indoor temperature to reach a better temperature range, the indoor humidity can be reduced to a certain value lower than the proper humidity, and at the moment, due to the fact that the indoor humidity is too low, the air conditioner diseases such as tight skin, dry mouth and tongue, cough and cold can be caused to grow frequently.

In order to solve the problem of low indoor humidity, there are two solutions in the prior art, one is to purchase a humidifier to humidify the indoor air, and the other is to replace the air conditioner with a humidifying function to adjust the indoor humidity.

It can be seen from the above description that the humidification device of the present invention can achieve humidification without arranging a water storage box, thereby greatly improving the humidification effect, and since the humidification module 1 and the air supply module 2 of the humidification device can be independently installed in the outdoor unit 4 and the indoor unit 3, a user does not need to spend higher cost to purchase an air conditioner with humidification function, but only spend less purchase cost and reform cost, namely can use the humidification device for indoor humidification, and on the basis of ensuring the humidification effect, the reformation cost of the humidification function is greatly reduced. That is to say, the invention solves the problems of poor humidifying effect and high replacement cost of the air conditioner with the humidifying function by adopting a small humidifier in the prior art, and is suitable for large-scale popularization and use.

As shown in fig. 5, the water collecting rotary disk 124 may be a honeycomb disk made of zeolite material, and the honeycomb holes 1242 are arranged obliquely along the axial direction of the water collecting rotary disk 124, such that the humidifying module 1 does not need to be provided with a driving mechanism separately, but the water collecting rotary disk 124 can be driven to rotate only by blowing air flow through the honeycomb holes 1242 of the water collecting rotary disk 124 by the water collecting fan 123. Of course, the rotation speed of the water collecting rotary disc 124 is related to the inclination degree of the honeycomb holes 1242, and the specific value thereof can be obtained through experiments or theoretical calculation, and will not be described herein again.

Referring to fig. 6 to 8, the cross section of the tubular housing 21 is an ellipse, and further includes an upper end cap 211 and a lower end cap 212, and the upper end cap 211 and the lower end cap 212 are closely fitted at the major axis of the ellipse. The support tube 22 is disposed at the middle of the upper end cover 211 or the lower end cover 212 along the length direction of the tubular casing 11, and a second mounting structure (not shown in the figure, such as a mounting plate with a hook or a screw hole) is disposed at an end of the support tube away from the tubular casing 21, and the air supply module 2 can be mounted on the indoor unit 3 through the second mounting structure. Referring to fig. 6, a filter assembly 24 and an ultrasonic atomization assembly 25 are sequentially disposed inside the support tube 22 in a flow direction of air. The filter assembly 24 is preferably a HEPA filter, which typically includes three filter layers, with a particulate removal efficiency of 99.97% or greater for diameters below 0.3 microns. The ultrasonic atomization assembly 25 can atomize the moist air or water droplets entering the support tube 22 so that the atomized air stream is discharged into the room through the air outlet 213.

Referring to fig. 7, twelve circular air outlets 213 are symmetrically disposed on the tubular housing 21, and each air outlet 213 is disposed at one end of the oval long axis far away from the support tube 22, i.e., the upper end cover 211 and the lower end cover 212 are each provided with a half circular hole. Preferably, the air outlet direction of the air outlet hole 213 is a horizontal direction or a small angle (e.g. 0-30 degrees) between the inclined downward direction and the horizontal direction. In order to rapidly discharge the air flow introduced into the air supply module 2 into the room through the air outlet 213, improve the humidification area of the air flow, and enhance the spraying effect of the air outlet 213, two sets of air supply mechanisms 23 symmetrically arranged relative to the central section of the tubular housing 21 are further arranged between the upper end cover 211 and the lower end cover 212, each set of air supply mechanism 23 comprises a cross-flow fan 231, a fan bracket 232 and a fan motor 233, the fan bracket 232 is arranged in the middle of the tubular housing 21, the fan motor 233 is arranged at the end of the tubular housing 21, one end of the cross-flow fan 231 is connected with an output shaft of the fan motor 233, and the other end of the cross-flow fan 231 is erected on the fan bracket 232. In this way, the fan motor 233 can pressurize the airflow by driving the cross flow fan 231 to rotate, and the airflow can be ejected into the room from the air outlet 213.

As can be seen from the above description, the arrangement of the water collecting turntable 124 and the heating component 133 in the humidification module 1 enables the humidification device of the present invention to collect and utilize the moisture in the outdoor air, so as to humidify the indoor, moisten the indoor dry air, achieve the moisture-free humidification, and avoid the problem of bacteria breeding in the water storage box. The honeycomb holes 1242 of the water collecting rotary disc 124 are obliquely arranged along the axial direction, so that a driving mechanism can be omitted, the structure of the humidification module 1 is simplified, the cost of the humidification module 1 is reduced, the noise in the humidification process can be greatly reduced, and the silencing of the humidification process is realized. The arrangement of the filter assembly 24 in the air supply module 2 can purify the humid air entering the room on the basis of humidification, improve the air cleanliness and prevent secondary pollution. The ultrasonic atomizer can release a large amount of negative oxygen ions in the atomization process, and the negative oxygen ions are combined with smoke and dust floating in the air to precipitate the negative oxygen ions; can effectively remove paint smell, mildew smell, smoke smell and stink, and enables the air to be fresher and more natural. The air outlets 213 of the air supply module are arranged in the tubular housing 21 along the length direction, so that the air supply effect can be greatly improved, large-area air supply and uniform air supply can be realized, and the phenomena of uneven air supply, serious moisture adhesion and the like can be avoided. The air supply mechanism 23 can effectively increase the air supply pressure and the air supply quantity, so that the air flow is sprayed into the room from the air outlet hole 213, and the humidifying area and the humidifying effect are improved. The tubular shell 21 is provided with an oval cross section, so that the airflow entering the tubular shell 21 can be effectively guided, and the on-way loss in the airflow flowing process is reduced. The air outlet direction of the air outlet hole 213 is the horizontal direction or the arrangement mode with a smaller included angle with the horizontal direction, and the air outlet device also has the advantages of improving the jet area of the air flow, avoiding the air flow from directly blowing the human body, effectively preventing the dust from falling into the tubular shell 21 and the like.

In addition, because the humidifying module 1 and the air supply module 2 can be respectively arranged on the outdoor unit 4 and the indoor unit 3 of the wall-mounted air conditioner, compared with a humidifier, the indoor space occupation is reduced, the humidifying device can be sold independently, a user does not need to buy an air conditioner with a humidifying function at higher cost, but only needs small purchase cost and modification cost, namely the humidifying device can be used for indoor humidification, if the humidifying device is arranged near the air conditioner, the connecting pipe 5 can be arranged through a refrigerant pipe hole on the wall, the wall penetrating times are reduced, the modification cost is further reduced, and the application scene of the invention is greatly expanded.

Of course, the above-mentioned embodiments are only used for illustrating the principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can modify the above-mentioned embodiments so that the present invention can be applied to more specific application scenarios without departing from the principle of the present invention. For example, the water collecting rotary disk 124 may be made of other adsorptive materials, such as silica gel or alumina, besides zeolite, and may have other hole structures, such as circular holes or square holes. For another example, the water collecting fan 123 may be a mixed flow fan or a centrifugal fan, the water discharging fan 134 may be a mixed flow fan or an axial flow fan, and the positions of the water collecting fan 123, the water discharging fan 134 and the heating element 133 in the housing 11 are not unique, as long as the positions of the water collecting fan 123, the water discharging fan 134 and the heating element 133 enable the normal operation of the humidification module 1. For example, the humidification module 1 may be attached to the outdoor wall 6 by bonding or screwing, and the blower module 2 may be attached to the indoor wall 7 by bonding or screwing. For another example, the connecting pipe 5 can be wrapped with a heat-insulating layer to prevent the pipe body from being frozen or cracked in winter. For another example, the tubular housing 21 may be formed by inserting two sections of pipes, and the air supply mechanism 23 may be installed into the tubular housing 21 from two ends of the two sections of pipes. For another example, the length of the support tube 22, the length and the cross-sectional shape of the tubular housing 21, and the number and the shape of the air outlets 213 are not limited, and their specific arrangement may be adjusted according to specific application scenarios. For another example, one or more sets of air supply mechanisms 23 may be disposed in the air supply module 2, as long as the air supply mechanisms 23 can perform the function of pressurizing and guiding the air flow entering the air supply module 2.

Referring now to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a schematic structural diagram of a humidification module 1 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 10, in another possible embodiment, without changing other features, a driving mechanism 16 (correspondingly, a mounting hole is formed on the partition 15, not shown in the drawings) such as a servo motor or a stepping motor may be further disposed in the housing of the humidification module 1, and an output shaft 161 of the driving mechanism 16 is connected to a shaft hole 1241 of the water collecting turntable, so that the driving mechanism 16 directly drives the water collecting turntable 124 to rotate, so as to adjust the rotation speed of the water collecting turntable 124 without increasing the volume of the housing 11, thereby achieving precise control of the humidification amount in different situations. If the indoor humidity is suitable or not, the fresh air changing function is realized by reducing the rotating speed of the driving mechanism 16 or controlling the driving mechanism 16 to stop rotating so as to reduce the humidification amount or stop humidifying.

Referring now to fig. 11, fig. 11 is a schematic structural view of a water collecting turntable 124 according to a third embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 11, on the basis of the solution shown in fig. 10, the water collecting rotary disk 124 may be formed by splicing a non-water absorbing material and a water absorbing material, the water collecting rotary disk 124 is also formed into a honeycomb shape, and the honeycomb holes 1242 thereof may be straight holes, but are made of a semicircular water absorbing material portion 124a (such as a zeolite material) and a semicircular non-water absorbing material portion 124b (such as an activated carbon material or a HEPA filter material), so that the preliminary purification and filtration of air can be realized in addition to the precise control of the amount of humidification in the different cases of the solution shown in fig. 10.

Further, in order to realize automatic control of the humidifying device, a detection component (not shown in the figure) can be arranged on the humidifying device. For example, a humidity sensor is provided at the tubular housing 21 to detect the humidity in the room, and when the humidity in the room is lower than a certain threshold, the humidification module 1 can be automatically turned on to purify and humidify the indoor air. For another example, a bacteria content detector is disposed inside the tubular housing 21 or in the drain region of the humidification module 1 to detect the bacteria content of the indoor or outdoor air, and when the bacteria content exceeds a certain threshold, the ultrasonic atomizer is automatically turned on to perform deep sterilization or the like on the fresh indoor or outdoor air.
