Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air purifier, and more particularly, to an air purifier capable of simultaneously performing filtration of foreign matter by a filter and humidification and air purifying by a swirl flow of a cyclonic system, .
Traditionally, an air purifier has a function of purifying air using a predetermined filter or a filtering method using electricity. Basically, the humidifier generates humidification of indoor air by generating water vapor by various methods such as generation of water vapor using ultrasonic waves or heat, or natural vaporization using wind, irrespective of the air cleaning function It can be said to perform.
In recent years, various types of products having both the humidifying function and the air purifying function have been introduced in various forms, which are also called "airwashers" or "wet type air purifiers". Such an air purifier equipped with a humidification function is disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-0863307, Japanese Patent No. 10-0805667, Registration Practical Utility Model Registration No. 20-0157935, and Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2010-0084828 It has been proposed in the form of branches.
In such an air purifier, a plurality of discs are provided on a rotating shaft disposed horizontally, and a plurality of such discs are partially rotated in a state of being immersed in water contained in a water tank. Airflow from the air blowing fan toward the disk assembly is formed so that foreign matter including dust and the like contained in the air is trapped in the water film formed on the surface of the disk and is transferred into water inside the water tank, The water on the surface of the assembly is naturally evaporated by the blowing of the blowing fan to perform a humidifying function.
However, the conventional air purifier has the following problems. In such air cleaning and humidification functions, the most important point in removing foreign substances contained in the air or spontaneously evaporating the water is the size of the contact area between the airflow and the water. However, according to the conventional air purifier, the contact area of the air flow generated in the first blowing fan is substantially limited to a part of the surface area of the disk, and the second air flow is once discharged to the outside of the air cleaner Therefore, there is a certain limit to the air purifying function and the humidifying function.
In other words, even in the function of the air purifier, a certain limit is pointed out in terms of sufficient foreign matter filtering. Although it has a humidification function, it is not enough that the humidification function itself is not sufficient and it is also impossible to control the humidification amount.
