A humidifier which creates a visually entertaining helical flow of mist g enerally includes a base unit defining a reservoir for holding a quantity of water, a water tank supported on the base unit for supplying water to the r eservoir, a humidification device, such as an ultrasonic transducer, in comm unication with the reservoir for vaporizing the water held in the reservoir to produce a mist, a vortex unit supported on the base unit and a nozzle and a vortex creator positioned in the vortex unit. The vortex unit has an open ing disposed above the base unit reservoir to permit the mist produced by th e humidification device to rise upwardly into the vortex unit. The nozzle is positioned adjacent the mist opening for introducing a carrier medium flow into the vortex unit and the vortex creator is positioned above the nozzle a nd the mist opening for diverting the upwardly rising mist from the reservoi r into the carrier medium flow from the nozzle and directing a combined mist and carrier medium flow into a helical path within the vortex unit. |
