ABSTRACT:
A portable electric humidifier uses a flexible, disposable bag as a container for water, to provide a compact, collapsible, and easily portable system. A humidifier head contains a motor and an air humidifying apparatus such as a spinning disk and conical shaft. The head is supported on folding legs. The flexible bag is attached to and hangs beneath the humidifier head. The conical shaft extends downwardly from the spinning disk and draws water from the bag and conveys it to the disk, from which it is dispersed in an air stream into a room. The shaft telescopes, to occupy a minimum vertical distance for storage within the height of the collapsed legs. The flexible bag container is inexpensive and may be discarded after use at one location, prior to packing for further travel. Thus, the humidifier provides overnight humidification for a hotel room or the like, while being conveniently packable for transportation in any small suitcase.
