About Happy Water Humidificador

Happy Water és un humidificador d'ús interior. L'interruptor és una bola magnètica que flota sobre el cos, de manera que l'humidificador s'engega col·locant la bola a la seva posició. Un sensor de corrent detecta el canvi en el circuit magnètic i genera els senyals d'encesa i apagada. L'aigua es transforma en boira mitjançant atomització ultrasònica, i una làmpada ultraviolada integrada desinfecta l'aigua. El dipòsit té una capacitat de 4 litres i pot funcionar durant unes deu hores. La forma s'inspira en l'aigua i la lluna, dos elements de la cultura tradicional xinesa.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The products switch is designed as a floating magnetic ball to create a clear visual and tactile difference from other humidifiers. Unlike other humidifiers, designers pay more attention to consciousness rather than efficiency. While holding the magnetic ball to turn on the humidifier, it reminds the user to live in the present through wonderful body and visual effects.
Dimensions & Packaging: Humidifier diameter 300 mm, height 165 mm, permanent magnet ball diameter 22 mm.
Tags: Humidifier, decompression, oriental
Production Technology: Magnetic levitation technology, ultrasonic water atomization, micro water pump motor work, ultraviolet light disinfection.
Design Challenge: The challenge is how to place the magnetic levitation ball more accurately in the middle of the humidifier, without taking too long to place the magnetic levitation ball and the better integration of the magnetic levitation device and the humidifier to make the appearance more concise and clear.
Research: Happy water humidifier can hold 4 liters of water and can atomize 350 milliliters of water per hour. After one filling, it can humidify for ten hours continuously to increase the air humidity. The built in ultraviolet lamp can eliminate 99 percent of bacteria, and the silent water pump at the bottom of the water tank can sterilize the water cyclically. Turning on the humidifier by placing a magnetic ball makes people quickly enter a state of mindfulness and helps users eliminate anxiety.
Inspiration: It is inspired by the Chinese poem. The bright moon is born on the sea, and the horizon is at this time. Designers extracted water and moon as the modeling elements of the humidifier. Both of these elements occupy a very important position in traditional Chinese culture. We combine the two elements of water and moon with magnetic levitation technology to reflect the fusion of Chinese traditional culture and modern technology.
Project Duration: The project was launched in Shenyang, Liaoning, China in June 2020, and completed in Shenyang, Liaoning, China in January 2021.
Operation Flow: Through the users hands on operation, the magnetic levitation ball is placed to perform the function of the switch. The internal current monitoring sensor can sense the change of the magnetic levitation circuit and generate the on and off signals, realizing the use of placing the magnetic levitation ball to replace the ordinary switch Features. The top ball is stably suspended directly above the product to achieve the visual effect of the moon floating above the water.
