Dehumidifier
A dehumidifier according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a body; and a water container mounted at an upper side of the body, wherein the body includes a seating part arranged at an upper side thereof and on which the water container is seated and a hollow connection port protruding upward from the seating part, and the water container includes a connection hole into which the connection port is inserted and a valve which opens the connection hole as the water container is mounted on the body. The dehumidifier prevents condensed water in the water container from leaking through the connection hole in a state in which the water container is separated from the body.
1. A dehumidifier comprising:
a body including a seating part at an upper portion thereof, and a connection port configured to protrude upward from the seating part; and
a water container configured to be seated on the seating part and including a connection hole into which the connection port is inserted, and a valve configured to open the connection hole when the water container is mounted on the body.
2. The dehumidifier of claim 1 , wherein the valve includes a valve pipe installed on the connection hole to be vertically movable and provided with a hole into which the connection port is inserted, and
the valve pipe includes a valve hole configured to communicate with the inside of the water container when the valve pipe is moved upward in an upper portion thereof.
3. The dehumidifier of claim 1 , wherein the valve includes a stopper coupled with an upper end of the valve pipe and configured to restrict downward movement of the valve pipe to a certain level or less, and a hook protrusion configured to extend outward in a radial direction from a lower end of the valve pipe and restrict upward movement of the valve pipe to a certain level or less.
4. The dehumidifier of claim 1 , wherein:
the water container includes a water storage portion provided in a lower portion thereof and configured to store condensed water, and a step portion provided in an upper portion of the water container to be stepped on the basis of the water storage portion; and
the connection hole is provided in the step portion.
5. The dehumidifier of claim 1 , wherein the valve includes a valve portion formed of a material elastically transformed, and
wherein the valve portion is elastically transformed by an upper end of the connection port being inserted into the connection hole, and configured to be moved upward.
6. The dehumidifier of claim 5 , wherein:
the valve includes a coupler provided with a hole into which the connection port is inserted and coupled to the connection hole of the water container; and
the valve portion extends from one side of an upper end of the coupler and covers the hole of the coupler.
