Abstract
A floating-type humidifier according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a floating body which floats in a reservoir that accommodates water; an ultrasonic wave generation unit which is installed by being inserted into the floating body, and atomizes the water, which is introduced into a lower side of the floating body, into a water particles state by means of ultrasonic vibration; a guide tube which is detachably coupled to the floating body, is installed above the ultrasonic wave generation unit, guides the water particles, and has a fan installation hole horizontally and penetratively formed in a lateral portion of the guide tube; a blower fan which is coupled in the fan installation hole, and injects air into the guide tube so as to discharge the water particles to an upper side of the guide tube; and a discharge groove which is formed in an upper surface of the floating body so as to communicate with the fan installation hole in which the blower fan is mounted.
