Abstract
A deodorization module including a housing having a suction port and a discharge port formed therein, a fan disposed between the suction port and the discharge port, a photocatalytic filter disposed between the suction port and the fan, a light source module including a substrate and an ultraviolet light source and configured to irradiate the photocatalytic filter with ultraviolet light, and an ion generator disposed between the fan and the discharge port.
Claims19
A deodorization apparatus comprising:
- a housing having an inlet at a first side of the housing, an outlet at a second side of the housing that is different from the first side of the housing, the housing having a width along a direction and a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are spaced apart from each other along the direction;
- a fan disposed between the inlet and the outlet;
- a filter disposed between the inlet and the fan and configured to receive an air from the inlet and provide a filtered air, the filter comprising two sidewalls that adjoin to the first sidewall and the second sidewall of the housing;
- an ion generator disposed between the filter and the outlet and configured to receive the filtered air, the ion generator having an ion discharge port facing a ceiling surface of the housing;
- a first holder disposed in the housing and configured to include a first region and a second region that are disposed at two opposite sides of the fan, respectively;
- a second holder disposed in the housing and configured to be connected with the ion generator;
- and
- a first wall including a first region extending from the first region of the first holder to be in contact with the first side wall of the housing and a second region extending from the second region of the first holder to the second sidewall of the housing, the first wall configured to allow the filtered air to move toward the ion generator through a region defined by the first holder and the second holder.
A deodorization apparatus comprising:
- a housing having an inlet at a first side of the housing and an outlet at a second side of the housing that is different from the first side of the housing, the housing having a width along a direction and a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are spaced apart from each other along the direction;
- a filter disposed between the inlet and the outlet and comprising two sidewalls that adjoin to the first sidewall and the second sidewall of the housing;
- a fan and an ion generator that are disposed along a direction from the inlet to the outlet, the ion generator having an ion discharge port facing a ceiling surface of the housing;
- a first holder including a first region and a second region that are in contact with a first region and a second region of the fan, respectively, the first region and the second region of the first holder disposed at two opposite sides of the fan;
- a second holder disposed in the housing and configured to be in contact with the ion generator;
- a first wall extending from the first region of the first holder to be in contact with a sidewall of the housing that connects the inlet and the outlet, the first wall configured to provide a region that is inside of the housing and guide an air to flow toward the ion generator through the region.
A deodorization apparatus, comprising:
- a housing having a width along a direction and having an inlet at a first side of the housing, an outlet at a second side of the housing that is different from the first side of the housing, and a first sidewall and a second sidewall that are spaced apart from each other along the direction;
- a filter disposed to receive an air from the inlet and configured to perform a first deodorization on the air and provide a filtered air, the filter comprising two sidewalls that adjoin to the first sidewall and the second sidewall of the housing;
- a fan disposed between the filter and the outlet and having a first region and a second region that are disposed at opposite sides of the fan;
- an ion generator disposed between the filter and the outlet and configured to perform a second deodorization on the filtered air from the filter;
- a first holder disposed in the housing and having a first region and a second region that are in contact with opposite sides of the fan, respectively;
- a second holder disposed in the housing and configured to be in contact with the ion generator;
- and
- a light emitter in the housing and configured to emit light toward the filtered air, the light emitter disposed between the filter and the fan;
- a wall extending from the first region of the first holder to one side of the housing and configured to guide the filtered air to flow toward the ion generator, and
- wherein the ion generator is configured to generate ions that react with the filtered air while the filtered air passes through a region disposed between the wall and the outlet, and
- wherein the filter, the fan, and the ion generator are disposed along a first straight direction and the light emitter extends along a second direction perpendicular to the first straight direction.
