Patent attributes
A humidifier includes a main housing, a fan unit and an air guiding arrangement, which includes a guiding roller and a partitioning assembly. The partitioning assembly is supported in the main housing at a position adjacent to the guiding roller to substantially enclose the water storage compartment. The partitioning assembly defines at least one air slot and an air passage channel, wherein when the fan unit and the guiding roller are driven to rotate, air is drawn from the air inlet and guided to pass through the air slot to reach the water storage compartment for effectively mixing with the water in the water storage compartment to form a predetermined amount of mist. The mist is arranged to pass through the partitioning assembly through the air passage channel and the fan unit, and eventually discharged out of the main housing.
