Abstract

An aromatic nebulizing diffuser includes a base panel, an electric fan, a power control unit, a lower housing, a fluid container that has bottom mounting rods detachably plugged into respective tubular upright posts of the base panel to facilitate cleaning work, a water baffle, an upper housing, an ultrasonic oscillator that controls a light source to emit light when oscillating an aromatic fluid in the fluid container to produce a fine mist of aromatic fluid droplets and a speaker mounted in a vertical speaker holder at the bottom side of the fluid container within the lower housing and controllable by the power control unit for audio output.

Claims (17)

1. An aromatic nebulizing diffuser, comprising:

a base panel, said base panel comprising a plurality of air vents cut through top and bottom walls thereof and a plurality of tubular upright posts perpendicularly upwardly extended from the top wall;

an electric fan mounted on said base panel;

an ultrasonic oscillator for generating oscillation energy, said ultrasonic oscillator with control circuit function;

a water level sensor arranged on a top side of said ultrasonic oscillator and controllable to work by said ultrasonic oscillator;

a power control unit electrically connected to said electric fan, said ultrasonic oscillator, said water level sensor and a light source to provide the necessary working voltage;

a lower housing surrounding said base panel and defining with said base panel an accommodation chamber that accommodates said power control unit, said electric fan, said ultrasonic oscillator, said water level sensor and said light source, said lower housing having a top rim;

a fluid container accommodated in said accommodation chamber of said lower housing, said fluid container comprising a horizontal bottom wall, a vertical peripheral wall, a fluid chamber surrounded by the horizontal bottom wall and the vertical peripheral wall, an air duct suspending in said fluid chamber, a plurality of bottom mounting rods perpendicularly downwardly extended from the horizontal bottom wall and respectively detachably plugged into said tubular upright posts of said base panel, and a mounting hole cut through the horizontal bottom wall at the center and accommodating said ultrasonic oscillator; and

an upper housing, said upper housing comprising a bottom opening disposed at a bottom side thereof and coupled to the rim of said lower housing and a top hole at a top side thereof opposite to said bottom opening.

2. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said fluid container comprises a speaker holder downwardly extended from the horizontal bottom wall thereof and holding a speaker that is electrically connected to said power control unit.

3. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said power control unit comprises a circuit board, a power jack mounted on said base panel and electrically connected to said control circuit board for the connection of an external power source and an audio jack mounted on said base panel and electrically connected to said control circuit board to provide a sound source signal.

4. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light source being arranged on the top side of said ultrasonic oscillator and controllable by said ultrasonic oscillator to emit light.

5. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said lower housing comprises an inside step in said accommodation chamber; said fluid container comprises an annular top flange radially extended from the topmost edge of the upright peripheral wall thereof and supported on the inside step in said accommodation chamber of said lower housing and sealed with a water seal ring that is set in between the annular top flange of said fluid container and the inside step of said lower housing; said ultrasonic oscillator has an upper part thereof mounted in the mounting hole on the horizontal bottom wall of said fluid container and sealed with a water seal ring.

6. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 2 , wherein said fluid container further comprises a music control circuit for controlling said speaker to output pre-recorded music.

7. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said upper housing comprises a bottom edge extending around the bottom opening thereof and supported on the top rim of said lower housing, and a bottom flange perpendicularly downwardly extended from the bottom edge and stopped against said fluid container.

8. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said upper housing is made of a transparent material.

9. The aromatic nebulizing diffuser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said upper housing is made of a light transmissive material.
