Abstract
Disclosed is a humidifier. The humidifier according to the present disclosure includes: an inner tank which has a space in which water is held and which is opened on an upper side; an outer tank having a space in which the inner tank is accommodated; a handle fixedly disposed on an upper end portion of the inner tank; and a water tank sealer disposed on an outer circumferential surface of the handle and being in contact with an upper end portion of the outer tank.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A humidifier comprising:
an inner tank forming a space for storing water and having an open top; an outer tank forming a space in which the inner tank is accommodated; a handle fixedly disposed on an upper end portion of the inner tank; and a water tank sealer disposed on an outer circumferential surface of the handle and being in contact with an upper end portion of the outer tank.
2 . The humidifier of claim 1 , wherein the water tank sealer includes
a contact portion in contact with the handle, an extension portion extending outward from an upper end of the contact portion, and a sealing portion extending downward on an end portion of the extension portion.
3 . The humidifier of claim 2 , wherein the sealing portion has an outwardly convex shape.
4 . The humidifier of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the outer tank is greater than a thickness of the inner tank.
5 . The humidifier of claim 1 , comprising:
a connector connected to the inner tank and configured to send the water stored in the inner tank to a humidification module, wherein a bottom hole through which the connector passes is formed on a bottom surface of the inner tank, wherein a through-hole through which the connector passes is formed on a bottom surface of the outer tank, and wherein the connector is disposed to be in contact with each of the inner tank and the outer tank.
6 . The humidifier of claim 5 , comprising:
a packing disposed around the bottom hole on the bottom surface of the inner tank and contacts the connector.
7 . The humidifier of claim 5 , wherein an outer sealer in contact with the outer tank is disposed on the connector.
8 . The humidifier of claim 5 , wherein the connector includes
a connector body disposed to pass through the bottom hole, and a connector holder disposed outside the inner tank and coupled to the connector body, and wherein when the connector holder is coupled to the connector body, the connector is in contact with the inner tank and the outer tank to seal the bottom hole and the through-hole.
9 . The humidifier of claim 8 , wherein a top surface of the connector holder is in contact with the bottom surface of the inner tank, and
wherein a circumferential surface of the connector holder is in contact with the outer tank.
10 . The humidifier of claim 8 , comprising:
a packing disposed on the periphery of the bottom hole and in contact with the connector on the bottom surface of the inner tank, wherein the packing is in contact with the connector body.
11 . The humidifier of claim 8 , wherein the outer sealer in contact with the outer tank is disposed on the circumferential surface of the connector holder.
12 . The humidifier of claim 11 , wherein a lower rim extending downward is disposed around the through-hole on the bottom surface of the outer tank, and
wherein an inner protrusion protruding inward and in contact with the outer sealer is disposed on an inner circumferential surface of the lower rim.
13 . The humidifier of claim 12 , further comprising:
an inner shell disposed spaced apart around the outer tank, and forming a discharge passage for humidified air to flow between the inner shell and the outer tank; and an upper rim protruding upward is formed on a bottom surface of the inner shell around a shell through-hole formed below the through-hole, wherein the upper rim is disposed around the lower rim.
14 . The humidifier of claim 13 , wherein the upper rim contacts a bottom surface of the inner protrusion.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
