[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of household energy, and in particular to an intelligent transmission and distribution system for realizing efficient comprehensive utilization of household energy by utilizing a thermodynamic reverse cycle energy storage system. Background Art

[0002] Household energy consumption accounts for an important proportion of my country's energy consumption, and household heating and cooling energy demand varies greatly with seasons and regions. When used alone, household energy supply appliances such as air conditioners and water heaters have problems such as high energy consumption, complex pipelines, low comprehensive energy efficiency, high operating costs, poor unit working conditions, and potential safety hazards.

[0003] Large central air conditioners can provide cooling and heating for multiple users at the same time, but they lack personalization and freedom. In daily life, the demand for cooling and heating will change with the seasons, living habits, etc., causing problems such as mismatch and imbalance between supply and demand. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a household energy intelligent time-space transmission and distribution system to overcome the existing problems of poor operating conditions, poor efficiency, poor comfort, dependence on units during combined cooling and heating, and difficulty in adjusting operating conditions of household air conditioners and water heaters. Energy centralized management and on-demand distribution are achieved through energy storage and cooling and heating technologies.

[0010] Among them, the hot end heat exchanger and the cold end heat exchanger are shell and tube heat exchangers, and the air-cooled heat exchanger is a fin-tube heat exchanger.

The function conversion is achieved by opening and closing the valves: the three-way valves 8 and 10 are disconnected from the hot-end heat exchanger 5, and the three-way valves 9 and 11 are connected to the cold-end heat exchanger 6.

[0040] Compared with the combined heating and cooling mode, in the separate heating mode, the cold-end heat exchanger 6 and the refrigerant circulation pump 4 stop working, while the air-cooled heat exchanger 7 works to undertake the refrigerant evaporation work, and the function conversion is achieved by opening and closing the valves: the three-way valves 9 and 11 are disconnected from the cold-end heat exchanger 6; the three-way valves 8 and 10 are connected to the hot-end heat exchanger 5.

[0041] In the present invention, the energy consumption unit can realize three operation modes: summer air conditioning and hot water supply mode, winter heating and hot water supply mode, and domestic hot water separate supply mode.

The hot water circulation pump 17 is turned on to drive the working medium to flow in the pipeline, exchange heat from the heat carrier storage tank 1 to increase the temperature, and flow through the first liquid distributor 13, the hot water circulation pump 17, the valve 22, the insulation water tank 24, and the second liquid distributor 14 to return to the heat carrier storage tank 1.

[0044] In the winter heating and hot water co-supply mode, the cold water circulation pump 18 is turned on to drive the working medium to flow in the pipeline, exchange heat from the heat carrier storage tank 1 to increase the temperature, and flow through the distributor 1 13, valve 19, cold water circulation pump 18, distributor 3 15, valve 23, fan coil 25, distributor 4 16, valve 21, distributor 2 14 and return to the heat carrier storage tank 1; the hot water circulation pump 17 is turned on to drive the working medium to flow in the pipeline, exchange heat from the heat carrier storage tank 1 to increase the temperature, and flow through the distributor 1 13, hot water circulation pump 17, valve 22, insulation water tank 24, distributor 2 14 and return to the heat carrier storage tank 1.

[0045] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the fan coil unit can work independently, and the system design ensures that as long as there is one fan coil unit in use, the cold water circulation pump will work.

[0046] The present invention achieves the effect of overcoming the problems of poor operating conditions, poor efficiency and poor comfort of existing household air conditioners and water heaters through centralized energy storage and cooling and heating technologies.

[0047] The present invention achieves the effect of integrating household energy supply appliances and saving pipelines and main components by optimizing the structural design.

[0048] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
