The present invention relates to the technical field of air purifiers, and particularly relates to an air purifier with an ambient lamp.
As people's living standards have improved, quality of life and working environments attract more attention from people. As a fashionable small household appliance, an air purifier can bring fresh air to a home environment, so it grows popular increasingly. At present, some air purifiers can be further equipped with lighting lamps or ambient lamps. They can play a certain role in lighting, enhancing atmosphere and displaying air quality. However, a light source of an existing ambient lamp is generally directly mounted on a surface of a purifier. In this way, direct light emission of the light source can produce adverse effects such as glare. Further, the ambient lamp can be easily damaged due to hitting, water ingress, and the like.

An example of the present invention provides an air purifier 100 with an ambient lamp.

As shown in
A bottom edge of the upper housing 10 is provided with a fixing recess 11 matching the lamp belt 20 in shape. The fixing recess 11 is arranged along an edge directly under the upper housing 10, so as to form a non-circular annular structure, a shape of which is consistent with that of the cross section of the upper housing 10. The lamp belt 20 is fixed in the fixing recess 11, such that light of the lamp belt 20 is emitted in a direction away from the upper housing 10. For instance, when the upper housing 10 is vertically placed, the light emitted from the lamp belt 20 is directed towards the lower housing 30 and the ground. Therefore, an opening of the fixing recess 11 is set downward, and when the lamp belt 20 is mounted in the fixing recess 11, water drops from outside or along a surface of the upper housing 10 can hardly enter the fixing recess 11, such that a risk of short circuit of the lamp belt 20 caused by the fact that water enters the fixing recess 11 is effectively avoided.
The lower housing 30 includes a base 31 and a supporting plate 32 vertically arranged at a preset position of the base 31. The base 31 is fixedly connected to a bottom of the upper housing 10, for instance, by means of a bolt, such that one end of the supporting plate 32 away from the base 31 presses the lamp belt 20 in the fixing recess 11, and the lamp belt 20 is arranged opposite an edge of the base 31 at an interval. That is, one end of the supporting plate 32 is fixed to the base 31, and the other end of the supporting plate abuts against the upper housing 10, such that an annular interval region is formed between the upper housing 10 and the lower housing 30, and light emitted from the lamp belt 20 is emitted outward via the interval region. Therefore, an effect of protecting the lamp belt 20 is improved, and a risk that the lamp belt 20 is hit or water enters the lamp belt is effectively reduced.
Specifically, as shown in
In the example, a vertical projection of the lamp belt 20 relative to the base 31 completely falls into the first annular belt 311. That is, the light emitted from the lamp belt 20 directly enters the first annular belt 311, and then is reflected by a surface of the first annular belt 311, so as to achieve an ambient lamp effect. In this way, the lamp belt 20 is shielded to a certain extent, a light source of the lamp belt 20 is prevented from emitting light directly to human eyes, and further a visual effect is improved. Further, a reflective layer (not shown in the figure) is further attached to one side of the first annular belt 311 close to the upper housing 10. The reflective layer may be a reflective material coating that coats the surface of the first annular belt 311, or a reflective film, so as to improve a light reflection effect of the first annular belt 311. Herein, the reflective layer is preferably a diffuse reflective layer.
In an example, as shown in
The first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 may be made of rubber, plastic, and the like, such that the first side wall and the second side wall have certain strength and elasticity. A distance between the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 may be gradually increased from a position close to the bottom wall 21 to a position away from the bottom wall 21, such that a bell-mouth-like shape is formed. In this way, the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 tend to be away from each other, and further the first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 are clamped in the fixing recess 11 in an interference manner, which facilitates subsequent disassembly and assembly of the lamp belt 20 so as to maintain the lamp beads.
Further, a preset position of a top of the second side wall 23 extends in a direction away from the first side wall 22 so as to form a plurality of clamping blocks 231. The clamping blocks 231 may be of a common hook structure. A bottom of a side wall of the fixing recess 11 is provided with a plurality of clamping recesses 111 corresponding to the clamping blocks 231 one by one, and the clamping blocks 231 are configured to match the clamping recesses 111 so as to clamp the second side wall 23 in the fixing recess 11. In this way, connection strength between the second side wall 23 and the fixing recess 11 is improved, and further the lamp belt 20 cannot easily fall off from the fixing recess 11.
Further, one end of the first side wall 22 away from the bottom wall 21 extends inward to form a limiting flange 221, and the supporting plate 32 presses the limiting flange 221 on a bottom of the fixing recess 11, such that connection strength between the first side wall 22 and the fixing recess 11 is improved. In combination with the above embodiment, the lamp strip 20 can further prevented from falling off from the fixing recess 11 easily. In this way, connection strength between the lamp belt 20 and the fixing recess 11 is ensured on the premise that the lamp belt 20 does not need to be locked by screws, and the lamp belt 20 can be assembled simply and conveniently, and has low material cost.
As shown in
In an example, the upper housing 10 is internally provided with a detection sensor (not shown in the figure) and a control module (not shown in the figure). The lamp belt 20 is a multi-colored lamp, which is capable of emitting light having different colors and/or different brightness. It should be noted that the above function may be achieved by setting the lamp beads capable of emitting light having different colors and controlling the plurality of lamp beads to emit light simultaneously. The detection sensor is configured to detect air quality, and the control module is configured to control the lamp belt 20 to emit light having different colors and/or different brightness according to the air quality detected by the detection sensor. In this way, a user can intuitively determine current indoor air quality according to a light emitting effect of the lamp belt 20. It should be noted that reference may be made to the prior art for specific structures and implementation principles of the detection sensor and the control module, which will not be repeated herein.
In conclusion, in the air purifier 100 with an ambient lamp according to the present invention, the bottom of the upper housing 10 is provided with a fixing recess 11, and further the supporting plate 32 of the lower housing 30 presses the lamp belt 20 in the fixing recess 11, such that the lamp belt 20 is fixed to the bottom of the upper housing 10, and the lamp belt and the base 31 of the lower housing 30 are arranged at an interval; and the lamp belt 20 is shielded to a certain extent, such that the lamp belt 20 may emit light softly via a gap between the lamp belt 20 and the base 31, and influence on a visual effect due to glare of the light source can be avoided. Meanwhile, the lamp belt 20 is arranged below the upper housing 10 and protected to a certain extent by the base 31, such that water cannot easily enter the lamp belt 20, a probability that the lamp belt is hit is greatly reduced, and the service life of the ambient lamp is prolonged.
The present invention is not only limited to the descriptions in the description and the embodiments, so other advantages and modifications can be easily achieved by those familiar with the art. Therefore, without departing from the spirit and scope of the general concept defined by the claims and the equivalent scope, the present invention is not limited to specific details, representative devices and illustrated instances shown and described herein.
