Air purifier

Abstract

The invention provides an air cleaner with high commercial value which is combined organically with an electrolytic mist generator. The electrolytic mist generator 30 is incorporated within the air cleaner 1. The electrolytic mist generator 30 comprises a tray 33 for storing water, a pair of electrodes 41 to electrolyze the water in the tray 33, a structure for guiding the water in the tray 33 to a vibration applying chamber 46 and for generating mist using an ultrasonic vibrator 50, a dome 56 to be filled with the generated mist, and a mist drifting chamber 60 for making the mist to drift within itself. The mist drifting within the drifting chamber 60 is diffused outside using air cleaned by the air cleaner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an air purifier. Background technique [0002] There is known an air cleaner that introduces air, purifies the introduced air, and discharges the air outside the machine. Air introduced into the machine passes through, for example, a filter to remove dust and the like contained in the air (see Patent Document 1). [0003] However, in the air cleaner disclosed in Patent Document 1, although dust and the like contained in the air are removed, the air cannot be sterilized or deodorized. Therefore, an air cleaner having a sterilizing function or a deodorizing function has also been proposed (see Patent Document 2). [0004] The air purifier disclosed in Patent Document 2 can store a liquid having a bactericidal or deodorizing effect in a water storage unit, and discharge mist (mist) generated by using the liquid to the outside of the machine, thereby sterilizing or deodorizing the air. Smelly. [0005] In addition, a de...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, special liquid must be specially prepared, which is very troublesome

In addition, this air cleaner does not organically combine the purification, which is the original function of the air cleaner, and the sterilization or deodorization function, but simply adds a device for performing sterilization or deodorization to the air cleaner. structure

[0010] In addition, the device disclosed in Patent Document 3 is also a device that independently performs deodorization or sterilization, and is not a device that is organically combined with an air cleaner.
