Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of finned heat exchangers, in particular to an adjustable finned heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] Finned radiator is the most widely used heat exchange equipment in gas and liquid heat exchangers. It achieves the purpose of enhancing heat transfer by adding fins to ordinary base tubes.

[0003] Finned heat exchangers are often used as condensers or evaporators. In some air-conditioning systems, finned heat exchangers are used to switch between the two.

[0004] After searching, the Chinese patent with publication number CN211822828U discloses an air conditioner outdoor unit structure, which flows out from the bottom of the finned heat exchanger through the through hole. Due to the flow of air at the bottom, the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchange tube at the bottom of the finned heat exchanger can be greatly enhanced, and the overall heat transfer efficiency can be improved. However, there are still the following problems: 1. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner has different functions in cooling and heating in the air conditioning system. In the heating process, when the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is used as an evaporator, the finned heat exchanger in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner will absorb heat from the external air. Water droplets will appear on the outer wall of the heat exchanger pipe, which is easy to cause corrosion to the pipe, resulting in a reduction in the service life of the heat exchanger; 2. During the refrigeration process, when the air conditioner outdoor unit is used as a condenser, the finned heat exchanger in the air conditioner outdoor unit needs to dissipate heat quickly. However, the tube wall of the general heat exchanger is thick and the heat dissipation effect is average, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger; 3. The wind from the air conditioner outdoor unit mostly blows from one side to the other, with the finned heat exchanger blocking it in the middle, which makes the air volume when the air entering from the air inlet is small when it is discharged.

The inner sides of both ends of the shell 1 are provided with sealing and adjusting mechanisms for guiding the wind direction. The airflow in the shell 1 is adjusted according to needs to change the gas flow direction, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the heat exchanger. The outer walls of both sides of the shell 1 are provided with external joints 5, and the two external joints 5 are respectively connected to the two outermost heat exchange modules through the first bellows 11, and are connected to the remaining components through the external joints 5, so that the heat exchanger is connected to the air-conditioning system.

The bottom end of the drain pipe 3 is threadedly connected with a plug cover 4. When the plug cover 4 is opened, the water generated inside the shell 1 will be discharged from the drain pipe 3, thereby facilitating the discharge of water from the inside of the heat exchanger.

[0027] The heat exchange module includes a frame 9, which is arranged between the inner walls on both sides of the shell 1. A plurality of evenly distributed connecting pipes 37 are welded between the inner walls on both sides of the frame 9. The connecting pipes 37 can be distributed in a straight row or in a forked row. The forked row frame distribution is preferred.

A plurality of fin groups are slidably connected to the outer circumferences of the plurality of connecting pipes 37, and the plurality of fin groups are evenly distributed. The fin groups can increase the connection.

[0028] Among them, the fin group includes a first fin 32 and a second fin 35, and the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 are both slidably connected to the outer side of the circumference of the connecting tube 37, and the first fin 32 of the same fin group is in contact with the second fin 35. The top of the frame 9 is provided with a joint component that enables multiple first fins 32 and second fins 35 to move synchronously. When the heat exchanger is a condenser, the joint component causes the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 of the same fin group to be out of contact, and causes the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 of the adjacent fin group to move towards each other, thereby further increasing the contact area between the fin and the external air, and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0029] In order to make the first fins 32 and the second fins 35 of the adjacent fin groups move toward each other, the combined assembly in the present invention includes a connecting cover 29, which is fixed to the top of the frame 9 by bolts, and the inner wall of the top of the connecting cover 29 is connected to a gear 41 through an axis rotation, and the tops of the plurality of first fins 32 are welded with a first rack 31, and the tops of the plurality of second fins 35 are welded with a second rack 34, and the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 are meshed with the gear 41, and the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 are meshed with each other. The gear 41 is centrally symmetrically distributed with its rotation point as the center. A power mechanism for driving the gear 41 to rotate is provided on the top of the shell 1. The gear 41 is driven to rotate by the power mechanism, so that the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 meshing with the gear 41 respectively drive the first wing 32 and the second wing 35 to move. Since the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 are centrally symmetrically distributed, the first wing 32 fixed to the first rack 31 and the second wing 35 fixed to the second rack 34 move toward each other.

[0030] In order to drive the gear 41 to rotate, the power mechanism in the present invention includes a slide groove 14, which is opened on the top outer wall of the shell 1, and a slide seat 27 is slidably connected in the slide groove 14.

The back surfaces of the plurality of first magnetic rings 38, the second magnetic rings 40, the first fin 32, and the second fin 35 are all bonded with scraper rings 39, and the scraper rings 39 are in contact with the circumferential outer wall of the connecting pipe 37, and the non-contact surface of the scraper ring 39 and the magnetic ring is The concave arc surface makes it easy to drop water drops. The first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 located in the same fin group are attracted to each other, and the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 between adjacent fin groups repel each other. In the process of the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 moving toward each other, the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 will respectively drive the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 to move toward each other synchronously, thereby driving the scraper ring 39 to move.

The slide rails 17 will guide the moving direction of the heat exchange module so that the heat exchange module can only move along the direction of the slide rails 17, thereby reducing the deviation of the heat exchange module during movement and improving the smoothness of the movement of the heat exchange module.

[0033] In order to drive the heat exchange module to move, the adjustment mechanism in the present invention includes an electric telescopic rod 7, which is fixed to the top outer wall of the shell 1 by bolts, and the piston end of the electric telescopic rod 7 is fixed with a connecting frame 6 by bolts, and the connecting frame 6 is fixed to the slide seat 27, and at least one fixed shaft 28 is fixed to the bottom of the connecting frame 6 by bolts, and the top outer wall of the shell 1 is provided with the same number of avoidance grooves 13 as the fixed shaft 28, and the bottom end of the fixed shaft 28 passes through the avoidance groove 13 and is rotatably connected to at least two force arms 26, and the other end of the force arm 26 is rotatably connected to the heat exchange module, starting The electric telescopic rod 7 is moved, and the electric telescopic rod 7 drives the connecting frame 6 to move.

Through the force arm 26, the fixed shaft 28 pulls the sliding heat exchange module to move toward the middle heat exchange module, which can not only shake the water droplets on the heat exchange module to assist the water droplets to fall, but also make the adjacent heat exchange modules contact, thereby improving the thermal conductivity of the heat exchange module. The slide 27 and the connecting frame 6 move synchronously, which can keep the belt in a straight state at all times, and will not affect the rotation of the pulley driven by the stepper motor, thereby not affecting the movement of the first fin 32 and the second fin 35.

[0036] The two states produced when the present invention is used operate as follows: S1: When the heat exchanger is an evaporator, the fixing screw 22 is turned to make one end of the fixing screw 22 disengage from the connecting shaft 21, and the wind guide plate 16 connected to the connecting shaft 21 is driven to rotate by the turning handle 8. The wind guide plate 16 will drive the connecting rod 19 to move, thereby driving the remaining wind guide plates 16 to rotate, so that the air is blown to the top of the heat exchange module, and the air is exhausted from the bottom of the heat exchange module, so that the hot air moves from top to bottom, providing energy for the liquid refrigerant in the heat exchange module to be converted into gas, reducing the probability of frost formation, and after adjusting the angle of the wind guide plate 16, the fixing screw 22 is reversed to make the fixing screw 22 contact with the connecting shaft 21, and the angle of the connecting shaft 21 is fixed by friction, and then the servo motor is started to rotate forward and reverse, so that the servo motor drives the first pulley 25 and the second pulley 30 The first fin 32 and the second fin 35 are reciprocated by rotating forward and reversely, and the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 are reciprocated by rotating forward and reversely, and the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 of the adjacent fin group are moved closer, and the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 of the same fin group are moved farther away from each other. When the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 of the same fin group are moved closer, the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 of the adjacent fin group will repel each other and move away from each other, and after more than half of the rotation, the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 of the same fin group are attracted to each other, so that the first magnetic ring 38 and the second magnetic ring 40 are reset, and the water droplets on the connecting pipe 37 are scraped off by this reciprocating motion, so as to reduce the attachment time of the water droplets on the heat exchange module, and thus improve the service life of the heat exchanger; S2: When the heat exchanger is a condenser, the fixing screw 22 is rotated to make one end of the fixing screw 22 disengage from the connecting shaft 21, and the wind guide plate 16 connected to the connecting shaft 21 is driven to rotate by the turning handle 8. The wind guide plate 16 will drive the connecting rod 19 to move, thereby driving the remaining wind guide plates 16 to rotate, so that the air is blown to the bottom of the heat exchange module, and the air is extracted from the top of the heat exchange module, so that the cold air moves from the bottom to the top, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat exchange. After the angle of the wind guide plate 16 is adjusted, the fixing screw 22 is reversed to make the fixing screw 22 contact with the connecting shaft 21, and the angle of the connecting shaft 21 is fixed by friction, and then the electric telescopic rod 7 is started, and the electric telescopic rod 7 drives the electric telescopic rod 7 to drive the connecting frame 6 to move, and the connecting frame 6 will drive the sliding seat 27 and the fixed shaft 28 to move, and through the force arm 26, the fixed shaft 28 pulls the sliding heat exchange module to move toward the middle heat exchange module, so that the adjacent heat exchange modules are in contact, so that the heat radiation of the heat exchange module is changed into heat conduction, and the heat exchange efficiency is accelerated. The heat transfer further improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat exchanger. The stepper motor is started, and the stepper motor drives the second pulley 30 to rotate. The first pulley 25 is rotated through the belt transmission, and then the gear 41 is driven to rotate, so that the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 meshing with the gear 41 respectively drive the first fin 32 and the second fin 35 to move. Since the first rack 31 and the second rack 34 are centrally symmetrically distributed, the first fin 32 fixed to the first rack 31 and the second fin 35 fixed to the second rack 34 move toward each other. After the output shaft of the stepper motor rotates a certain angle, it stops rotating, so that the distance between the adjacent first fin 32 and the second fin 35 is distributed in large and small sizes. When the distance is large, the air circulation volume is large and the pressure is small, thereby driving the air flow within a small distance, thereby making the air circulation better, and the separated first fin 32 and the second fin 35 can increase the contact area with the air, and further expand the heat dissipation effect of the heat exchanger.
