WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/007575
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A humidification apparatus comprising an atomization unit for water atomization,
a passage, an infrared emitter and a filter, wherein the passage allows any water
particles atomized by the atomization unit to pass therethrough, and wherein
the infrared emitter emits infrared rays so as to form a high-temperature zone
in the passage, and wherein any water particles having passed through the high-temperature
zone pass through the filter. By this construction, any microbes contained in
water or air can be efficiently sterilized from the initial stage of driving of
the humidification apparatus. Further, the startup thereof can be quick, and
the humidification apparatus realizes energy saving and high humidification
performance.
