[0027] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages and positive effects compared with the prior art:

[0028] 1. Optimized the structure of the local central air conditioning module

[0029] Traditional local central air conditioning modules generally use axial flow fans set above or on the side of the external heat exchanger module;

[0030] This embodiment is a large air conditioning unit that uses multiple points of negative pressure exhaust in the heat exchanger cavity, which fundamentally changes the spatial structural relationship of the traditional local central air conditioning module with the external fan on top and the external heat exchanger on the bottom. The external heat exchanger is placed on top and the external fan is placed on the bottom or at the rear, so that the ambient air passes through the external heat exchanger evenly at low speed and low resistance from the front and is discharged from the bottom, thereby optimizing the spatial structure of the local central air conditioning module, reducing the center of gravity and operating noise of the whole machine, and improving stability;

[0031] 2. Improved the integrity and decoration of the building facade

[0032] When traditional local central air conditioners are installed on the equipment platform inside the building, special air ducts need to be installed to guide the exhaust flow of the fan. The air outlet of the air duct faces the top or waist of the decorative facade units such as blinds, and there is serious spatial interference between the fan exhaust duct and the blades of the decorative facade units such as blinds. Not only is the exhaust blocked and the air volume reduced, but the blind blades are also subjected to pressure, vibration, and noise; the integrity and decorativeness of the building's facade are also destroyed.

[0033] The present embodiment adopts a large-scale air-conditioning unit with multiple negative pressure exhaust points in the heat exchanger cavity as a distributed energy module of the building. The local central air-conditioning outdoor unit with a strip air outlet at the bottom is paired with a decorative unit such as a blind on the facade of the building. The air inlet surface on the front side of the central air-conditioning outdoor unit is connected with the main ventilation area on the decorative unit such as the blind, and the strip air outlet at the bottom of the central air-conditioning outdoor unit is connected with the low-position strip air outlet reserved on the decorative unit such as the blind, so as to realize the front-to-back integrated combination of the air-conditioning outdoor unit and the decorative unit such as the blind, and the front-to-back integrated combination of the air-conditioning outdoor unit and the low-position strip air outlet of the decorative unit such as the blind, thereby eliminating the serious spatial interference between the traditional fan exhaust duct and the blades of the facade decorative unit such as the blind, eliminating the forced vibration and noise of the blind blades, and reducing the installation complexity and installation workload of the blind, thereby improving the integrity and decorativeness of the building facade.

[0034] 3. Ensure the thermal performance of the local central air conditioning module

[0035] If traditional local central air conditioning modules are installed on equipment platforms at various locations on various levels inside a building, the air outlet of the external heat exchanger will be blocked, reflected, and refluxed by the ceiling. Even if a dedicated air duct is installed to guide the exhaust flow of the fan, the air outlet of the air duct faces the top or waist of the decorative facade unit such as the blinds, which will cause serious spatial interference and poor exhaust. The two major problems of "increased exhaust pressure and reduced air volume" and "air flow short circuit" of the external heat exchanger will occur, resulting in increased condensation pressure in summer and reduced evaporation pressure in winter, causing serious attenuation of the thermal performance of the local central air conditioning module, which deviates significantly from the laboratory test data;

[0036] The present embodiment is a large-scale air-conditioning unit that adopts multi-point negative pressure exhaust in the inner cavity of the heat exchanger. The tube-fin type external heat exchanger is placed on the top and the fan is placed at the bottom and rear, so that the ambient air passes through the decorative units such as blinds and the fins of the external heat exchanger from the front of the heat exchanger evenly, at low speed and with low resistance; and multiple centrifugal fans are used to replace traditional axial flow fans, which increases the wind pressure and air volume, and improves the speed, range and diffusion and dilution effect of the air discharged from the strip air outlet at the bottom of the unit into the ambient atmosphere; the present embodiment fundamentally solves the two major problems of increased air pressure and reduced air volume and air short circuit of traditional local central air conditioners, and ensures the consistency of the thermal performance data of the air-conditioning unit with laboratory tests.

However, the present invention may be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are set forth in order to achieve a full and complete disclosure and to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the scope of the present invention. In these drawings, the sizes and relative sizes of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity.

[0054] The present invention provides a large-scale air-conditioning unit adopting multi-point negative pressure exhaust in the inner cavity of a heat exchanger, comprising a shell, an external heat exchanger, at least two centrifugal fans, and at least one internal heat exchanger; the external heat exchanger is vertically arranged in the shell, and is extended along multiple adjacent side walls of the shell, and the side walls of the shell and the external heat exchanger opposite to each other are provided with air inlets; the external heat exchanger is enclosed with the partition and / or the inner wall surface of the shell to form a closed heat exchange cavity; the air suction port of the centrifugal fan is connected with the heat exchange chamber, and the air outlet is connected with the air outlet on the shell; under the action of the centrifugal fan, the outside air enters the shell from the air inlets on multiple sides, and then flows through the external heat exchanger for heat exchange and then enters the heat exchange cavity, and then is discharged from the shell through the centrifugal fan and the air outlet; at least one group of circulation modules for refrigerant circulation is arranged between the pipeline in the external heat exchanger and the fluorine path of the internal heat exchanger, and the water path of the internal heat exchanger exchanges heat with the fluorine path to produce cold (hot) water required by the air-conditioning terminal in the building.

[0055] Among them, the hot water or cold water obtained by heat exchange in the water circuit of the plate heat exchanger can be delivered to the fan coil units in the building for cooling and heating in the building, and can also be used for production and domestic water, etc. The specific application scenarios are adjusted according to specific needs and are not limited here.

[0056] The present invention provides a large-scale air-conditioning unit that adopts multi-point negative pressure exhaust in the inner cavity of a heat exchanger. Multiple centrifugal fans are started to exhaust the air in the heat exchange cavity to produce a multi-point negative pressure state in the inner cavity, and a pressure difference is generated inside and outside the tube-fin external heat exchanger, pulling the ambient air to flow through the tube-fin external heat exchanger at a low speed, evenly, and with low resistance. After completing the heat exchange, it flows into the negative pressure air intake ports of multiple centrifugal fans, and after the centrifugal fans increase the pressure head, it flows through the strip air outlet at the bottom of the external heat exchanger module and is injected into the ambient atmosphere at high speed for diffusion and dilution.

[0057] The present invention allows ambient air to pass through decorative units such as shutters on the facade of a building and fins of an external heat exchanger evenly, at low speed and with low resistance; and multiple centrifugal fans are used to replace traditional axial flow fans, thereby increasing wind pressure and air volume, and increasing the speed, range and diffusion and dilution effect of air discharged from the strip air outlet at the bottom of the unit into the ambient atmosphere; the present invention fundamentally solves the two major problems of increased air pressure and reduced air volume and air outlet short circuit in traditional local central air conditioners, thereby ensuring the consistency of thermal performance data of the air conditioning unit with laboratory tests.

[0058] The following is a further description of specific embodiments.

[0059] Example 1

[0060] Reference Figure 2-5 In this embodiment, a large air-conditioning unit using multiple negative pressure exhaust points in the heat exchanger cavity is provided, including a shell 1 in which an external heat exchanger 2 is arranged.

[0061] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the external heat exchanger 2 is overall "U"-shaped and extends along the front and two side surfaces of the shell 1. Air inlets 103 are provided on the sides of the shell 1 opposite to the three surfaces of the external heat exchanger 2 to facilitate the external air to pass through the external heat exchanger 2 evenly.

[0062] Among them, the external heat exchanger 2 is a finned heat exchanger, which can be an integral structure or composed of multiple external heat exchanger modules. There is no limitation here and it can be adjusted according to specific circumstances.

[0063] Among them, in other embodiments, the external heat exchanger 2 may also be L-shaped or the like, or may only extend along the front side and one of the side surfaces of the shell. This is not limited here and can be adjusted according to specific circumstances.

[0064] In this embodiment, the top of the “U”-shaped external heat exchanger is combined with the top inner wall of the shell, and partitions are provided on the left side and the bottom of the “U”-shaped external heat exchanger, thereby forming a closed heat exchange chamber 101.

[0065] In this embodiment, an exhaust cavity 102 is provided below the heat exchange cavity 101, and two centrifugal fans 3 are arranged side by side in the exhaust cavity 102. Specifically, a backward-inclined centrifugal fan is used. A communicating channel is provided between the heat exchange cavity 101 and the exhaust cavity 102. The air inlet of the backward-inclined centrifugal fan is connected to the channel to achieve air suction from the heat exchange cavity 101. Furthermore, the exhaust cavity 102 is also connected to an air outlet 104 provided in the housing. In this embodiment, the air outlet is provided at the bottom of the front of the housing 1 and is in the shape of a long and narrow strip, so as to achieve high-speed air discharge in a small area.

[0066] Of course, in other embodiments, the exhaust chamber 102 may also be set at the top or left side of the heat exchange chamber, the centrifugal fan may also be of other types, and the number of centrifugal fans may be more than two, which are not limited here and can be adjusted according to specific needs.

[0067] In this embodiment, an internal heat exchanger 4 is further provided in the shell 1 , and two groups of circulation modules, namely, a circulation module 5 and a circulation module 6 , are provided between the pipeline in the external heat exchanger 1 and the fluorine path of the internal heat exchanger 4 .

[0068] Specifically, the pipeline in the external heat exchanger 2 is divided into two pipeline modules, which are independent of each other but share a set of fin assemblies. The fluorine circuit in the internal heat exchanger 4 is also divided into two fluorine circuit modules, which are independent of each other. The circulation module 5 is cyclically connected with one of the pipeline modules and one fluorine circuit module to form a channel for the circulation of the refrigerant. The circulation module 6 is cyclically connected with another pipeline module and one fluorine circuit module to form a channel for the circulation of the refrigerant. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of circulation modules can be selected according to specific needs, and the number of pipeline modules and fluorine circuit modules is based on the number of circulation modules, which are not limited here.

[0069] In this embodiment, the circulation module 5 and the circulation module 6 have the same structure, and the circulation module 5 is taken as an example for further description.

[0070] Specifically, refer to Figure 4-5 The circulation module 5 includes a compressor 501, a four-way valve 502, and a throttling device 503. One of the pipeline modules of the external heat exchanger 2, the throttling device 501, one of the fluorine path modules of the plate heat exchanger 4, and the compressor 501 are cyclically connected to form a loop, and the compressor 501 is connected to the loop through the four-way valve 502. The flow direction of the refrigerant in the circulation module is adjusted by switching the four-way valve 502.

[0071] Furthermore, the two ends of the compressor 501 are respectively connected to the No. 1 interface a and the No. 3 interface c of the four-way valve 502, the No. 4 interface d of the four-way valve 502 is connected to the external heat exchanger 2, and the No. 2 interface b of the four-way valve 502 is connected to the fluorine pipeline of the plate heat exchanger 4.

[0072] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown in , when the No. 1 port a of the four-way valve 502 is connected to the No. 4 port d, and the No. 2 port b is connected to the No. 3 port c, the circulation module 5 operates the refrigeration fluorine circuit, so that the water circuit of the plate heat exchanger 4 is cooled; Figure 5 As shown in , when the No. 1 port a of the four-way valve 502 is connected to the No. 2 port b, and the No. 3 port c is connected to the No. 4 port d, the circulation module 5 operates the heating fluorine circuit, so that the water circuit of the plate heat exchanger 4 is heated.

[0073] In this embodiment, the water path of the internal heat exchanger 4 is connected to the water circulation system through the inlet and outlet valves 8, and its operation is promoted by the water pump 7.

[0074] In this embodiment, the internal heat exchanger 6 adopts a plate heat exchanger, and the water channel of the plate heat exchanger is connected to the water channel at the terminal of the air conditioner in the building; of course, in other embodiments, the internal heat exchanger 4 can also adopt a shell and tube heat exchanger, and the water channel of the shell and tube heat exchanger is connected to the water channel at the terminal of the air conditioner in the building; the structural form of the internal heat exchanger 4 can be adjusted according to the specific situation and is not limited here.

[0075] In this embodiment, an equipment cavity is further provided in the housing 1 , and each circulation module is placed in the equipment cavity. Preferably, in this embodiment, the equipment cavity is provided behind the heat exchange cavity 101 in the housing 1 .

[0076] The advantages of a large air conditioning unit using multiple negative pressure exhaust points in the heat exchanger cavity provided by this embodiment are:

[0077] 1. Optimized the structure of the local central air conditioning module

[0078] Traditional local central air conditioning modules generally use axial flow fans set above or on the side of the external heat exchanger module;

[0079] This embodiment is a large air conditioning unit that uses multiple points of negative pressure exhaust in the heat exchanger cavity, which fundamentally changes the spatial structural relationship of the traditional local central air conditioning module with the external fan on top and the external heat exchanger on the bottom. The external heat exchanger is placed on top and the external fan is placed at the bottom and rearward, so that the ambient air passes through the external heat exchanger evenly at low speed and low resistance from the front and is discharged from the bottom, thereby optimizing the spatial structure of the local central air conditioning module, reducing the center of gravity and operating noise of the whole machine, and improving stability;

[0080] 2. Improved the integrity and decoration of the building facade

[0081] When traditional local central air conditioners are installed on the equipment platform inside the building, special air ducts need to be installed to guide the exhaust flow of the fan. The air outlet of the air duct faces the top or waist of the decorative facade unit such as the blinds. The fan exhaust duct and the blades of the decorative facade unit such as the blinds have serious spatial interference, which not only causes poor exhaust, but also causes the blinds to bear pressure, vibrate, and make noise; it also destroys the integrity and decorativeness of the building's facade;

[0082] The present embodiment adopts a large-scale air-conditioning unit with multiple negative pressure exhaust points in the heat exchanger cavity as a distributed energy module of the building. The local central air-conditioning outdoor unit with a strip air outlet at the bottom is paired with a decorative unit such as a blind on the facade of the building. The front air inlet surface of the central air-conditioning outdoor unit is connected with the main ventilation area on the decorative unit such as the blind, and the strip air outlet at the bottom of the central air-conditioning outdoor unit is connected with the low-position strip air outlet reserved on the decorative unit such as the blind, so as to realize the front-to-back integrated combination of the air-conditioning outdoor unit and the decorative unit such as the blind, and the front-to-back integrated combination of the air-conditioning outdoor unit and the low-position strip air outlet of the decorative unit such as the blind, thereby eliminating the serious spatial interference between the traditional fan exhaust duct and the blades of the facade decorative unit such as the blind, eliminating the forced vibration and noise of the blind blades, and reducing the installation complexity and installation workload of the blind, thereby improving the integrity and decorativeness of the building facade.

[0083] 3. Ensure the thermal performance of the local central air conditioning module

[0084] If traditional local central air conditioning modules are installed on equipment platforms at various locations on various levels inside a building, the air outlet of the external heat exchanger will be blocked, reflected, and refluxed by the ceiling. Even if a dedicated air duct is installed to guide the exhaust flow of the fan, the air outlet of the air duct faces the top or waist of the decorative facade unit such as the blinds, which will cause serious spatial interference and poor exhaust. The two major problems of "increased exhaust pressure and reduced air volume" and "air flow short circuit" of the external heat exchanger will occur, resulting in increased condensation pressure in summer and reduced evaporation pressure in winter, causing serious attenuation of the thermal performance of the local central air conditioning module, which deviates significantly from the laboratory test data;

[0085] The present embodiment is a large-scale air-conditioning unit that adopts multi-point negative pressure exhaust in the inner cavity of the heat exchanger. The tube-fin type external heat exchanger is placed on the top and the fan is placed on the bottom, so that the ambient air passes through the decorative units such as blinds and the fins of the external heat exchanger from the front of the heat exchanger evenly, at low speed and with low resistance; and multiple centrifugal fans are used to replace traditional axial flow fans, which increases the wind pressure and air volume, and improves the speed, range and diffusion and dilution effect of the air discharged from the strip air outlet at the bottom of the unit into the ambient atmosphere; the present embodiment fundamentally solves the two major problems of increased air pressure and reduced air volume and air short circuit in traditional local central air conditioners, and ensures the consistency of the thermal performance data of the air-conditioning unit with laboratory tests.

[0086] Example 2

[0087] Reference Figure 6 This embodiment is adjusted based on embodiment 1.

[0088] Specifically, in this embodiment, the air outlet cavity 102 is arranged at the top of the heat exchange cavity 101, and the corresponding air outlet portion 104 is also arranged at the top of the front of the shell in a narrow strip shape. A plurality of centrifugal fans 3 are directly arranged on the top of the shell 1. This embodiment is suitable for buildings with an exhaust interface in the upper part of the equipment platform.

[0089] In this embodiment, the remaining structures of the large air-conditioning unit using multiple negative pressure exhaust points in the heat exchanger cavity can refer to the description in Example 1 and are not limited here.

[0090] Example 3

[0091] Reference Figure 7-8 This embodiment is adjusted based on embodiment 1.

[0092] Specifically, in the present embodiment, an exhaust chamber 102 connected to the heat exchange chamber 101 is provided at the rear and bottom, and a backward-inclined centrifugal fan with an axial horizontal arrangement is provided in the exhaust chamber at the rear of the heat exchange chamber 101, and an axial vertically arranged backward-inclined centrifugal fan is provided in the exhaust chamber at the bottom of the heat exchange chamber 101, and the air intakes of the two backward-inclined centrifugal fans are connected to the heat exchange chamber 101 for air intake.
