Refrigerating and heating device with hydrogen storage alloy

Abstract

The refrigerating and heating device with hydrogen and hydrogen storing alloy includes reactor, blower fan, hydrogen pipes, compressor, flow passage control valve and cooling unit. One pair of reactors is filled with hydrogen storing alloy; the blower fan forces the sucked air to indoor or outdoor; the hydrogen pipes are connected to the reactors for hydrogen to flow through; the compressor is connected to the hydrogen pipes to force hydrogen from one reactor to the other; the flow passage control valve set in the hydrogen passage can alter the hydrogen flow direction between the reactors; and the cooling unit cools hydrogen exhausted from the compressor before being sucked into one reactor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cooling and heating device, and furthermore, to a cooling and heating device using hydrogen storage alloys that can bring about the following effects: using hydrogen and hydrogen storage alloys The endothermic or exothermic relationship in the reaction cools or heats the surrounding air, thereby generating cold or warm air. Therefore, when using the above cooling and heating device as an air conditioner, it is not necessary to separately install an outdoor unit. Background technique [0002] A general hydrogen storage alloy (hydrogen storage alloy) has the following characteristics: it performs an exothermic reaction when absorbing hydrogen, performs an endothermic reaction when discharging hydrogen, and can store hydrogen in a large capacity. Therefore, the above-mentioned hydrogen storage alloy can be used in application fields such as a heat pump or hydrogen storage devices by utilizing the above-mentioned charact...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the prior art, there have only been simple heating and cooling devices using hydrogen storage alloys, and no specific system has been proposed to make use of the properties of hydrogen storage alloys to form cooling and heating devices.

[0004] In particular, in order to reflect the advantages of refrigeration and heating devices using hydrogen storage alloys, the efficiency of the above-mentioned cooling and heating devices must be at least the same as that of cooling and heating devices using existing media, but it has not been proposed in the prior art that various structures The relationship or arrangement of elements is studied, so it cannot be put into practical use
