Humidity adjustment device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To make the procedure of supplying water unnecessary, by a method wherein atmosphere is sent to a humidity absorber to absorb the moisture of the air by moisture absorbing material, then, the flow passage of air is switched to send air in an air-conditioning space into the moisture absorber simultaneously with the starting of a microwave oscillator whereby the air in the air-conditioning space is dehumidified and, then, is humidified. CONSTITUTION:When an operation converter 12 is set in dehumidifying mode, an indoor side flow passage converter 5 is opened at first, an outdoor side flow passage converter 6 is closed, a bypass flow passage converter 7 is closed, the same converter 8 is opened, a microwave oscillator 4 is turned OFF and indoor air from a fan 2 is passed through a moisture absorber 1 to absorb the moisture therein by moisture absorbing material and return it into a room. Subsequently, the flow passage converters 5, 8 are closed, the same converters 6, 7 are opened and the oscillator 4 is turned ON to absorb the moisture in outdoor air by the moisture absorber 1 and return the dehumidified air to the outside of the room thereby continuing the dehumidification of the indoor air by repeating these operations. On the other hand, when the operation converter 12 is set in humidifying mode, atmosphere is passed through the moisture absorber 1 at first by the same operations of respective flow passage converters 5-8 under a condition that the oscillator 4 is OFF, subsequently, the indoor air is passed under the ON condition of the oscillator 4 to dehumify and humidify it. Thus, the supply of water may become unnecessary and the proliferation of bacteria will never be caused.
