BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The schematic block diagram of the humidification apparatus of one Embodiment of this invention.

Next, a humidifier according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a humidifier body, and a cylindrical guide tube 5 is provided at the center for guiding indoor air, which is fixed to the lid 2 and sucked from the suction port 3, to a blower 4 composed of a sirocco fan that is driven to rotate at the center. The guide cylinder 5 is provided with a blower cylinder 6 that covers the blower 4 and hangs down to the lower side of the blower 4.

  Reference numeral 7 denotes a processing chamber covering the guide cylinder 5, and a bowl-shaped water storage chamber 8 is provided below the processing chamber 7. The water storage chamber 8 has a constant water level chamber 10 in which a water supply tank 9 is set. Are communicated via the water passage 11, and the water supplied from the water supply tank 9 is supplied by the drop method, and water of a predetermined water level is always stored.

A drive motor 12 supports the water storage chamber 8 below the water storage chamber 8 and is fixed to a substrate 14 that is covered with a cover body 13 and that forms the bottom of the humidifier body 1.
Reference numeral 15 denotes a cylindrical rotating body that is supported by a drive shaft 16 that rotates the blower 4 through the water storage chamber 8 by submerging the lower portion of the water in the water storage chamber 8. The diameter of the rotating body 15 gradually increases toward the surface, and the rotating body 15 rotates to suck up water by the centrifugal force of the rotation and to scatter the water to the outer periphery from a plurality of scattering ports 17 formed at the upper end.

  18 is a cylindrical porous body that is positioned on the outer periphery of the rotating body 15 at a predetermined interval and rotates together with the rotating body 15. Water and air are scattered by centrifugal force generated by this rotation, By making the porous portion 19 made of a large number of slits, wire mesh, punching metal, etc. formed or passing and collapsing, the water particles are refined to generate nano mist, and the water particles are refined. The negative ions are generated by the Leonard effect, and the water particles that have passed through the porous part 19 further collide with the inner wall of the outer peripheral blower cylinder 6 to be refined.

  Reference numeral 20 denotes a heater that is submerged in the water stored in the water storage chamber 8 so that the water does not feel cold. Here, the heater 8 heats and holds the water to about 40 ° C. In order to heat the entire water storage to the predetermined temperature in a short time, the water storage chamber 8 When the water storage temperature reaches 40 ° C., the heater 20 is turned off via the control circuit or the energization wattage is reduced by the water temperature sensor 21 attached to the outer wall of the water storage chamber 8. However, it is turned off for the first time when the temperature rises, and then turned on again when the water storage temperature drops to 39 ° C, so that the water storage temperature is kept at 40 ° C.

  Reference numeral 22 denotes a water flow blocking means which covers the upper surface of the water storage chamber 8 so as to face the lower ends of the blower cylinder 6 and the porous body 18, and an insertion hole 23 of the rotating body 15 is formed at the center portion. The water surface is partitioned into a plurality of portions by the plurality of support pieces 24 extending radially, thereby preventing the water flow to rotate by the rotation of the rotating body 15, and the water flow is easily rotated by the centrifugal force due to the rotation of the rotating body 15. The water flow blocking means 22 can receive the relatively large water droplets that have not been refined by colliding with the upper blower cylinder 6 or the porous body 18. Can also prevent the falling sound that is generated by directly falling on the water surface of the water storage chamber 8.

  Reference numeral 25 denotes a flow passage for discharging nanomist and negative ions generated by the rotational drive of the rotary body 15 and the porous body 18 from the blower outlet 26 at the top of the processing chamber 7 by driving the blower 4. And a flow path that rises between the processing chamber 7, the guide tube 5, and the blower tube 6 from the gap between the water flow blocking means 22 and toward the blowout port 26.

  27 is a drain tray that receives drainage from a drain pipe 28 that communicates with the bottom of the water storage chamber 8, and is provided so as to be freely inserted into and removed from the humidifier body 1. Drainage is performed.

A water supply cap 30 of the water supply tank 9 is formed by pushing up an internal valve mechanism (not shown) by a fixed support 31 to form a drop-type constant water level chamber 10.
Reference numeral 32 denotes a tank lid for taking in and out the water supply tank 9, and 33 denotes a handle for attaching and detaching the lid body 2.

Next, the operation of the humidifier showing this embodiment will be described.
When the operation switch (not shown) is turned on, the heater 20 is turned on to directly heat the water stored at a constant water level in the water storage chamber 8, and the water stored in the water storage chamber 8 has a predetermined temperature of 40 here. The temperature sensor 21 detects that the temperature has reached 0 ° C., turns off the energization of the heater 20 via the control circuit, and starts driving the drive motor 12.

  When the drive motor 12 starts driving, the blower fan 4 and the rotating body 15 that are coaxially fixed to the drive shaft 16 are rotated, and the rotation of the blower fan 4 guides the indoor air sucked from the suction port 3 through the guide tube 5. And then discharged below the processing chamber 7.

  On the other hand, in the rotation of the rotating body 15, the water stored in the water storage chamber 8 heated to a predetermined temperature rises along the outer and inner walls of the rotating body 15 due to the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the lower end of the rotating body 15 and is formed at the upper end. The water stored in the outer periphery of the porous body 18 that is scattered from the plurality of scattering ports 17 and scattered on the outer periphery is located at a predetermined interval on the upper outer periphery of the rotating body 15 and rotates together with the rotating body 15. What collides with the porous part 19 and is crushed or passes through the porous part 19 collides with the inner wall of the blower cylinder 6 on the outer periphery and is refined.

  By crushing and refining the heated storage water, nano mist is generated, negative ions are generated by the Leonard effect, and the generated nano mist and negative ions are blown downward to the processing chamber 7 of the blower fan 4 described above. After hitting the water flow blocking means 22 and removing the large and heavy mist by dropping it onto the water flow blocking means 22, only fine nanomist and negative ions are discharged from the upper outlet 26 through the flow passage 25. The room is humidified.

  Furthermore, since the released nanomist was originally produced from heated water storage, it was possible to obtain a warm and non-chilled nanomist and negative ion release, which can be directly touched by the skin and used regardless of the winter season. In addition, the supplied nano mist is a good intermediate temperature that is neither high temperature nor low temperature around 40 ° C, so there is no risk of burns caused by precipitation of calcite or tipping over, and it can be used safely and with peace of mind. .

  Negative ions aspirated from the lungs enter the blood, and their reduction action prevents blood oxidation and makes the blood smooth. At the same time, circulation is improved and blood is distributed to the peripheral blood vessels, causing pain and discipline. It is thought that can be eased.

  In addition, negative ions have fatigue recovery effect, mental stability effect, blood purification effect, resistance enhancement effect, autonomic nerve adjustment effect, etc., and nano mist spreads to every corner of the air and suppresses dirty air and bacteria However, it still decomposes and has a deodorizing effect, dust removing effect, disinfecting effect, and of course a humidifying effect. This humidification is smooth and moist air with no stickiness, and it penetrates through the pores. It has the effect of keeping the hair moisturized, and the release of a large amount of negative ions and nanomist capable of obtaining these effects increases these effects.

  Next, when the heated water in the water storage chamber 8 is released and reduced as nano mist one after another by the rotating body 15 and the porous body 18, the water level in the water storage chamber 8 is lowered, and the water corresponding to the lowered water level is supplied to the water supply tank. When the water storage temperature is lowered by this water replenishment, the heater 20 is turned on and the water storage temperature is always kept at a predetermined temperature. Nanomist can be supplied continuously.

  Furthermore, when the water supply in the water supply tank 9 becomes empty, the tank lid 33 is opened, the water supply tank 9 is taken out from the humidifier main body 1, replenished with tap water from the kitchen faucet, and returned to its original state. It can be used in the same way and is very convenient.
