- FIG. 13A is a schematic diagram schematically showing the flow of wind in the air passage 216 and the flow of water droplets 230 scattered from the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219 when the guide portion 222 is provided and the protruding portion
- the water droplet 230 attached to the body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 is as follows. That is, when the main body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 extends straight in the vertical direction and a corner is formed by the main body case side wall surface 216a and the bottom portion 223, the main body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 is formed at this corner. The attached water droplet 230 tends to accumulate.
- the air flow is formed so as to pass through the shortest path. Therefore, when the protrusion 221 is not provided in the liquid micronizer 250, the air containing the liquid refined by the liquid micronizer chamber 205 passes near the lower end of the collision wall 212 as shown in FIG. 13B. Thus, the main flow of the air passage 216 is formed so as to flow into the space 224.
- the air flowing in the vertically downward direction inside the collision wall 212 is reversed in the direction of the air flow near the lower end of the collision wall 212, and is a space formed outside the collision wall 212.
- 224 flows vertically upward. That is, in the air passage 216, the airflow direction is reversed in a narrow region near the lower end of the collision wall 212, and the airflow direction is not reversed in a sufficiently wide region, so that a large pressure loss occurs.
- the air deviated from the main flow of the air passage 216 stays in the vicinity of the main body case side wall surface 216 a of the air passage 216 or the corner formed by the main body case side wall surface 216 a and the bottom 223.
- the guide unit 222 is provided in the liquid micronizer 250, as shown in FIGS. 13A and 13C, the water droplets 230 scattered from the eliminator 219 and adhering to the body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 are transferred to the water storage unit 204. It becomes easy to be guided. That is, the water droplet 230 flows to the bottom portion 223 due to the curvature of the main body case side wall surface 216 a formed on the guide portion 222, and is easily guided to the water storage portion 204 as it is due to the inclination of the bottom portion 223. That is, the presence of the guide portion 222 makes it difficult for the water droplet 230 to stay on the main body case side wall surface 216a.
- main body case side wall surface 216a due to the surface tension of the main body case side wall surface 216a, a part of the water droplet 230 attached to the main body case side wall surface 216a remains on the main body case side wall surface 216a, and the main body case side wall surface 216a remains wet.
- the main flow of the air passage 216 is formed as follows. That is, as shown in FIG. 13C, the air containing the liquid refined by the liquid refinement chamber 205 flows in the vicinity of the lower end of the collision wall 212 to the space 224 as shown in FIG. 13B. A main flow of the path 216 is formed. That is, in this case, out of the main body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 formed to be curved in the guide portion 222, the main body case side wall surface 216a located away from the vicinity of the lower end of the collision wall 212 is connected to the air passage 216. The mainstream is difficult to touch. Therefore, in this case as well, after the operation of the liquid micronizer 250, the water droplets 230 that remain attached to the main body case side wall surface 216a are not easily dried, and bacteria or molds are likely to occur.
- the flow of air that has passed through the inside of the collision wall 212 vertically downward is once caused by the protrusion 221.
- the main flow of the air passage 216 is formed so as to be bent inward.
- the air flow bent inward of the liquid micronization chamber 205 is bent again at the inner end of the liquid refinement chamber 205 (the tip of the protrusion 221) of the protrusion 221, and flows downstream of the eliminator 219.
- the main flow of the air path 216 is formed so that it may flow toward.
- the main flow of the air passage 216 is formed so as to flow upward in the space 224 formed outside the collision wall 212.
- the projecting portion 221 and the guide portion 222 are provided in the liquid micronizer 250, the following effects are obtained. That is, the presence of the guide portion 222 can make it difficult for the water droplets 230 scattered from the eliminator 219 and adhering to the main body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 to stay on the main body case side wall surface 216a.
- the air that has passed through the inside of the collision wall 212 is once bent inward by the projecting portion 221 and then downstream of the eliminator 219 at the tip of the projecting portion 221. Bent to flow toward Then, after passing through the eliminator 219, the air flows upward in a space 224 formed outside the collision wall 212.
- the air passing through the inside of the collision wall 212 in the vertically downward direction is reversed in the air flow direction by the air passage 216 formed on the large circumference, and the space 224 formed on the outside of the collision wall 212 is vertically upward. It flows toward.
- the air which passes the eliminator 219 can be made to flow through the eliminator 219 with uniform wind speed. Therefore, since the air that has passed through the eliminator 219 can flow along the main body case side wall surface 216a of the air passage 216 of the guide portion 222 formed in a curved shape, the main body case after the operation of the liquid micronizer 250 is completed.
- the side wall surface 216a can be easily dried. Therefore, the liquid micronizer 250 according to the present embodiment can shorten the internal drying time after the operation is completed, and can suppress the generation of bacteria or mold.
- the wind speed of the air flowing through the eliminator 219 can be suppressed as compared with the case where the air concentrates and flows in a partial region of the eliminator 219 due to the absence of the protrusion 221. Therefore, the amount of water droplets 230 that scatter from the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219 can be reduced. Therefore, the liquid micronizing apparatus 250 according to the present embodiment can shorten the internal drying time after the operation is completed also from this aspect. Moreover, since water droplets can be collected by the eliminator 219 as a whole, there is an effect that the effect of collecting water droplets can be enhanced.

Further, by making the air flow in the eliminator 219 substantially uniform, it is possible to prevent the air velocity from increasing at a specific position inside the eliminator 219. Thereby, the speed of air becomes high in the specific position inside the eliminator 219, and it can suppress that the water droplet 230 scatters from there.
- the projection 221 is directed downward from above the inner cylinder 206 of the liquid micronization chamber 205.
- the flowing air can be bent inward of the liquid micronization chamber 205 while suppressing pressure loss.
- the collision wall 212 crushes the water flying from the rotating plate 214 of the pumping pipe 211, a part of the water adheres to the collision wall 212 and falls below the collision wall 212 with its weight.
- the dropped water droplet 230 is received by the protruding portion 221 and guided to the water storage portion 204 by the inclination of the protruding portion 221.
- the protrusion part 221 is provided above the eliminator 219, it can suppress that the water droplet which adheres to the collision wall 212 and falls falls to the eliminator 219.
- the presence of the protruding portion 221 can prevent the eliminator 219 from being excessively wetted by water droplets falling from the collision wall 212, and as a result, can prevent the water droplets 230 from being scattered from the eliminator 219. Therefore, also from this aspect, the internal drying time after completion of the operation can be shortened.
- the upper end 222a of the guide portion 222 is provided at a position higher than the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219.
- the air passing through the eliminator 219 is greatly turned by the protrusion 221 and flows along the guide part 222, so that the water droplets 230 scattered from the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219 are generated. The possibility of splashing upward is increased.
- the upper end 222a of the guide portion 222 is provided at a position higher than the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219. Therefore, it is possible to easily adhere to the main body case side wall surface 216a formed by bending the guide portion 222, including the water droplets 230 scattered upward from the upper part of the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219. Therefore, the water droplets 230 attached to the main body case side wall surface 216a including the water droplets 230 scattered upward from the upper part of the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219 are caused to flow to the bottom portion 223 due to the curvature of the main body case side wall surface 216a.
- the water storage unit 204 can be guided through the H.223. Therefore, the internal drying time after the end of operation can be further shortened.
- the upper end 222a of the guide portion 222 may be provided so as to have substantially the same height as the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219.
- the substantially same height is sufficient as long as the positions of the upper end 222a of the guide portion 222 and the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219 are substantially the same.
- the height from the upper end of the water storage unit 204 to the upper end 222a of the guide unit 222 is within ⁇ 5% of the height from the upper end of the water storage unit 204 to the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219. If so, the upper end 222 a of the guide portion 222 may be regarded as having substantially the same height as the upper end 219 a of the eliminator 219.
- the guide part 222 When the upper end 222 a of the guide part 222 is provided so as to have substantially the same height as the upper end 219 a of the eliminator 219, a part of the water droplet 230 scattered upward from the upper part of the downstream side surface of the eliminator 219 adheres to the guide part 222. There is a possibility that it cannot be made. However, since there is no curvature of the main body case side wall surface 216a in the guide portion 222 at a position higher than the upper end 219a of the eliminator 219, the width of the cross section of the space 224 can be kept constant. Therefore, the pressure loss in the space 224 can be suppressed.
