[0042] It should be noted that the height direction Z of the shell 10 is the vertical direction, and the length direction Y of the shell 10 is the horizontal direction.
[0043] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model discloses an outdoor unit, including a housing 10, an outdoor side heat exchanger 11, a domestic water tank 12, a compressor 13, a hot water side heat exchanger 14, a first water pump 15, an air conditioning side heat exchanger 16 and a second water pump 17, specifically as follows:
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the housing 10 has a first cavity 101 and a second cavity 102 inside, the second cavity 102 is "L"-shaped and is arranged outside the first cavity 101, the second cavity 102 includes a lateral space 1021 and a vertical space 1022 perpendicular to the lateral space 1021, and the lateral space 1021 partially extends to the bottom of the first cavity 101. The lateral space 1021 and the vertical space 1022 may be separated by a structure such as a partition, or may not be separated by a structure such as a partition.
[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the outdoor heat exchanger 11 includes a first refrigerant port 111 and a second refrigerant port 112 connected to the first refrigerant port 111. The outdoor heat exchanger 11 is used to achieve heat exchange between the refrigerant and the outside air. Figure 3 As shown, the outdoor heat exchanger 11 is installed in the first cavity 101 .
[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, the domestic water tank 12 includes a cold water inlet 121, a water outlet 122, a return water outlet 123 and a hot water outlet 124. The domestic water tank 12 is used to store domestic water. Figure 3 As shown, the domestic water tank 12 is vertically installed in the vertical space 1022 of the second cavity 102 .
[0047] like Figure 5As shown, the compressor 13 includes an inlet 131 and an outlet 132, and the compressor 13 is used to provide refrigerant for the outdoor side heat exchanger 11, the hot water side heat exchanger 14 and the air conditioning side heat exchanger 16. The hot water side heat exchanger 14 includes a refrigerant inlet 141, a refrigerant outlet 142 connected to the refrigerant inlet 141, a first water inlet 143 and a first water outlet 144 connected to the first water inlet 143. The hot water side heat exchanger 14 is used to prepare hot water by heat exchange between the refrigerant and the water in the domestic water tank 12. The first water pump 15 is used to provide power for the water circulation between the domestic water tank 12 and the hot water side heat exchanger 14, and the first water pump 15 is arranged in the water inlet pipe or the water outlet pipe of the hot water side heat exchanger 14. The air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 includes a third refrigerant port 161, a fourth refrigerant port 162 connected to the third refrigerant port 161, a second water inlet 163, and a second water outlet 164 connected to the second water inlet 163. The air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 is used to achieve heat exchange between the refrigerant and the water in the external terminal device 29. The second water pump 17 is used to provide power for the water circulation between the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 and the external terminal device 29. The second water pump 17 is arranged on the water inlet pipe or the water outlet pipe of the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16. Figure 3 As shown, the compressor 13 , the hot water side heat exchanger 14 , the first water pump 15 , the air conditioning side heat exchanger 16 and the second water pump 17 are installed in the lateral space 1021 of the second cavity 102 .
[0048] This embodiment improves the integration of the unit, has a reasonable spatial layout, improves space utilization, achieves miniaturization, and balances weight, which helps to improve the stability of the unit and reduce operating noise and vibration. It also makes full use of the lower space of the domestic water tank 12 and the outdoor heat exchanger 11, does not occupy the space of the outdoor heat exchanger 11 or the domestic water tank 12, and does not affect the air volume and heat exchange efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger 11.
[0049] It is also convenient for the design and arrangement of pipelines, which is beneficial to reducing the pipelines between the hot water side heat exchanger 14 and the domestic water tank 12, and avoiding the loss of heat and pipeline pressure during hot water transportation caused by excessively long pipelines.
[0050] Since the domestic water tank 12 is vertically installed in the vertical space 1022 vertically installed in the second cavity 102, and the outdoor heat exchanger 11 is installed in the first cavity 101, the water tank side does not need air intake, so that the water tank side can be installed against the wall to be applied to the installation space with poor ventilation environment, and the gaps left at both ends during the original installation are changed to a single-side gap, which has wide adaptability to the installation space, can save installation space, and reduce the size of the outdoor unit. At the same time, since the outdoor heat exchanger 11 is set separately, it can also ensure that there is enough ventilation on the heat exchanger side to ensure heat exchange efficiency, and avoid the heat exchange efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger 11 from decreasing due to insufficient ventilation space.
[0051] Since the density of hot water is lower than that of cold water, compared with installing the domestic water tank 12 horizontally, installing the domestic water tank 12 vertically is conducive to allowing the prepared hot water to quickly rise to the top of the domestic water tank 12, so that the hot water outlet 124 at the top can quickly obtain high-temperature hot water, thereby improving the water discharge volume, water discharge rate and hot water supply capacity. In some embodiments, the domestic water tank 12 is a metal tank body, such as a stainless steel cylindrical tank body. The outer wall surface of the domestic water tank 12 is wrapped with an insulation layer, such as insulation cotton or polyurethane foam, and the heat loss of the prepared hot water is prevented by wrapping the insulation layer. The stainless steel cylindrical tank body, the insulation cotton and the polyurethane foam here are only examples and are not intended to be a limitation of the present application.
[0052] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the first cavity 101 is rectangular, and the rectangle here is only an example and is not intended to limit the present application.
[0053] In some embodiments, an electric auxiliary heater, such as an electric heating rod, is provided in the domestic water tank 12. In order to monitor the temperature in the domestic water tank 12 in real time, a temperature detector, such as a thermometer, is provided in the domestic water tank 12. The electric heating rod and the thermometer are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0054] When water is heated, scale will be produced, and the scale will cause corrosion to the domestic water tank 12. A water softening device and / or an anti-corrosion layer is provided in the domestic water tank 12. For example, the water softening device is a magnesium rod, and the anti-corrosion layer is a metal coating. After the magnesium rod is placed in the domestic water tank 12, the magnesium rod will release magnesium ions, so that the water alkali and scale in the domestic water tank 12 are reduced, effectively preventing a large amount of scale from being attached to the inner wall of the domestic water tank 12, thereby avoiding corrosion to the domestic water tank 12.
[0055] In some embodiments, a pressure relief device is provided on the top of the domestic water tank 12, and the pressure relief device is used to release the pressure inside the domestic water tank 12. For example, the pressure relief device is an exhaust valve, and the exhaust valve here is only an example and is not intended to limit the present application.
[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the hot water side heat exchanger 14 and the first water pump 15 are located in the horizontal space 1021 corresponding to the vertical space 1022 , that is, below the domestic water tank 12 .
[0057] Specifically, the housing 10 includes a bottom plate 1033 located in the lateral space 1021, and the bottom plate 1033 is used to be fixed on an external fixture, such as the ground. The outdoor unit also includes a water tank bracket 30, and the water tank bracket 30 is fixed on the bottom plate 1033. The domestic water tank 12 is installed on the water tank bracket 30 so that a first accommodation space is formed between the bottom of the domestic water tank 12 and the bottom plate 1033, and the hot water side heat exchanger 14 and the first water pump 15 are located in the first accommodation space.
[0058] In some embodiments, the domestic water tank 12 extends to the lateral space 1021 and is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1033 .
[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the compressor 13 , the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 and the second water pump 17 are located in the lateral space 1021 corresponding to the first cavity 101 , that is, below the outdoor side heat exchanger 11 .
[0060] Specifically, the shell also includes a water receiving tray 105, which is used to collect condensed water. The water receiving tray 105 is horizontally arranged at the bottom of the outdoor heat exchanger 11. A second accommodating space is formed between the bottom of the water receiving tray 105 and the bottom plate 1033. The compressor 13, the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 and the second water pump 17 are located in the second accommodating space.
[0061] Furthermore, the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space constitute a lateral space 1021 of the second cavity 102 .
[0062] In some embodiments, the shell further includes an outer shell 103 and a partition 104, wherein the partition 104 is vertically arranged between the domestic water tank 12 and the outdoor heat exchanger 11, and is respectively connected to the outer shell 103 and the water receiving tray 105 to define the first cavity 101 and the second cavity 102.
[0063] In some embodiments, in order to reduce the number of pipes between the hot water side heat exchanger 14 and the domestic water tank 12 , the water outlet 122 is located at the bottom of the domestic water tank 12 , and the water return port 123 is located in the middle of the domestic water tank 12 .
[0064] In some embodiments, the water outlet 122 is connected to the first water inlet 143, the first water outlet 144 is connected to the water return port 123, there is a space between the domestic water tank 12 and the corner inside the housing 103, and the pipe connecting the first water outlet 144 to the water return port 123 is located in the space to make full use of the space in the corner. For example, the domestic water tank 12 is cylindrical, and the cylindrical shape here is only an example and is not intended to limit the present application.
[0065] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the vertical space 1022 and the first cavity 101 are arranged in a stepped manner inside the shell 10 to form a first space and a second space with different vertical lengths in the lateral space 1021, wherein the first space corresponds to the first cavity 101 (that is, the first space is located below the outdoor heat exchanger 11), the second space corresponds to the vertical space 1022 (that is, the second space is located below the domestic water tank 12), and the vertical length of the first space is greater than the vertical length of the second space.
[0066] In this embodiment, system components with different height requirements can be placed in the first space and the second space, so that the internal space layout of the outdoor unit is reasonable, and the problem of insufficient internal space of the outdoor unit when the domestic water tank 12 is built into the outdoor unit is solved, thereby improving space utilization and achieving miniaturization. It should be noted that the vertical space 1022 and the first cavity 101 are arranged in a stepped manner inside the shell 10, which means that they are arranged in a stepped manner in the height direction Z of the shell 10.
[0067] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the height of the domestic water tank 12 is greater than the height of the outdoor heat exchanger 11, and the lowest point of the domestic water tank 12 is lower than the lowest point of the outdoor heat exchanger 11, thereby making full use of the internal space of the outdoor unit to increase the height of the domestic water tank 12 and increase the water volume.
[0068] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the outdoor unit further includes a first heat exchanger bracket 31 , the first heat exchanger bracket 31 is fixed on the bottom plate 1033 , and the hot water side heat exchanger 14 is installed on the first heat exchanger bracket 31 .
[0069] For example, the hot water side heat exchanger 14 is a shell-and-tube heat exchanger, which extends around the height direction Z of the housing 10 and is arranged around the periphery of the first water pump 15 to fully utilize the peripheral space of the first water pump 15. The pipes inside the shell-and-tube heat exchanger can carry two heat exchange media, refrigerant and water, which are separated by copper pipes and heat exchanged, thereby providing hot water for the domestic water tank 12. The shell-and-tube heat exchanger here is only an example and is not intended to limit the present application.
[0070] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit further includes a first water pump bracket (not shown), and the first water pump 15 is installed in the lateral space 1021 of the second cavity 102 through the first water pump bracket.

The plate heat exchanger, the air disk, the floor heating and the hydraulic module here are only examples and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0073] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit further includes a second water pump bracket (not shown), and the second water pump 17 is installed in the lateral space 1021 of the second cavity 102 through the second water pump bracket.

The pressure buffer 33 is installed in the lateral space 1021 of the second cavity 102, specifically at the lateral space 1021 corresponding to the first cavity 101, that is, below the outdoor side heat exchanger 11. For example, the pressure buffer 33 is an expansion tank, and the expansion tank here is only an example and is not intended to limit the present application.

For example, the pressure buffer 33 is installed (such as horizontally installed) on the bottom plate 1033, and the second water pump 17 is located above the pressure buffer 33. It should be noted that the horizontal installation is to extend along the length and width plane of the housing 10.

That is, when heating alone is used in winter, the high-temperature gaseous refrigerant output from the outlet 132 of the compressor 13 passes through the eighth valve port 261 and the tenth valve port 263 of the third reversing valve 26 and the first valve port 191 and the fourth valve port 194 of the first reversing valve 19 and then enters the fourth refrigerant port 162 of the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16. The high-temperature gaseous refrigerant is converted into medium-temperature liquid refrigerant after heat exchange with the circulating water in the terminal device 29 in the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16. The medium-temperature liquid refrigerant output from the third refrigerant port 161 of the air-conditioning side heat exchanger 16 passes through the second one-way valve 22 and then enters the first refrigerant port 162 of the liquid storage container 24. Three interfaces 243, the medium-temperature liquid refrigerant output from the second interface 242 of the liquid storage container 24 is throttled and cooled by the second throttling device 23 to become a low-temperature liquid refrigerant with a lower temperature, and then enters the second refrigerant port 112 of the outdoor heat exchanger 11. The low-temperature liquid refrigerant evaporates and absorbs heat in the outdoor heat exchanger 11 to become a low-temperature gaseous refrigerant. The low-temperature gaseous refrigerant output from the first refrigerant port 111 of the outdoor heat exchanger 11 passes through the second valve port 192 and the third valve port 193 of the first reversing valve 19 and then returns to the inlet 131 of the compressor 13 through the gas-liquid separator 27, and repeats the cycle.
[0108] It should be noted here that the above-mentioned high, medium and low temperatures are only relative expressions, and the gaseous refrigerant can also refer to a gas-liquid two-phase state or a gaseous state, which is not limited here.
