[0029] The refrigeration system 20 includes a compressor 21, a condenser 23 and an evaporator 25. The condenser 23 and the evaporator 25 are both connected to the compressor 21 by airflow. The compressor 21 is used to extract the vapor in the evaporator 25, maintain low temperature and low pressure, and increase the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant vapor by compression, and transfer the heat of the refrigerant vapor to the external environment medium. That is, the compressor 21 can compress the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant vapor to a high-temperature and high-pressure state; the compressor 21 is installed in the second circulation chamber 112. The evaporator 25 is installed in the first circulation chamber 111, and can use the environmental cooling medium (such as air or water) to take away the heat of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigeration vapor from the compressor 21, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor is cooled and condensed into a high-pressure and normal-temperature refrigerant liquid, and the cooled cold air is blown to the heating device. The condenser 23 is installed in the second circulation chamber 112. The condenser 23 is used to evaporate the refrigerant liquid into vapor, absorb the heat of the cooled substance, reduce the temperature of the substance, and discharge the heat in the air-conditioning cabinet to the external environment.

[0030] The cabinet air conditioner 1 further includes a first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and a second circulation centrifugal fan 60. The first circulation centrifugal fan 50 is installed in the first circulation chamber 111 and is used to guide external air into the first circulation chamber 111, thereby absorbing the heat emitted by the heating device.

[0031] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The fresh air baffle 42 is a roughly rectangular plate-shaped structure. The fresh air baffle 42 includes a first baffle 421 and a second baffle 423 connected to each other. When the fresh air baffle 42 selectively opens the drainage hole 31 by rotating relative to the middle partition 30, the first baffle 421 intersects with the middle partition 30 at an angle and contacts with the air-conditioning housing 10, and separates the first circulation chamber 111 into a first upper circulation chamber 1112 and a first lower circulation chamber 1114.

Specifically, the second baffle 423 is connected between the first outer air guide plate 101 and the second outer air guide plate 102. In this embodiment, the first upper circulation chamber 1112 is connected to the second upper circulation chamber 1122 through the drainage hole 31, and the first lower circulation chamber 1114 is connected to the second lower circulation chamber 1124 through the drainage hole 31. Figure 3As shown, when the fresh air baffle 42 closes the drainage hole 31, the fresh air baffle 42 is parallel to the middle partition 30 and corresponds to the drainage hole 31, where the correspondence means that the size of the fresh air baffle 42 is the same as the size of the drainage hole 31. Figure 4 As shown, when the fresh air baffle 42 opens the drainage hole 31, there is an angle between the fresh air baffle 42 and the middle partition 30. Specifically, when the fresh air baffle 42 opens the drainage hole 31 and contacts both the front cover 14 and the rear cover 15, the fresh air baffle 42 also contacts the first inner air guide plate 18, the second inner air guide plate 19, the first outer air guide plate 101 and the second outer air guide plate 102, thereby dividing the receiving chamber 11 into a third circulation chamber 113 and a fourth circulation chamber 114, wherein the third circulation chamber 113 is formed by the first inner air guide plate 18, the second inner air guide plate 19, the first outer air guide plate 101, the second outer air guide plate 102, the middle partition plate 30, the front cover plate 14, the rear cover plate 15, the first side cover plate 16, the second side cover plate 17 and the upper cover plate 12 form a fourth circulation chamber 114, which is formed by the first inner air guide plate 18, the second inner air guide plate 19, the first outer air guide plate 101, the second outer air guide plate 102, the middle partition plate 30, the front cover plate 14, the rear cover plate 15, the first side cover plate 16, the second side cover plate 17 and the lower cover plate 13.

[0032] The fresh air device 40 further includes a fresh air drive motor 44, which is mechanically connected to the fresh air baffle 42 and is used to drive the fresh air baffle 42 to rotate relative to the middle partition 30. Specifically, the fresh air baffle 42 can be mounted on the output shaft of the fresh air drive motor 44, and the axis of the output shaft is parallel to the length direction of the fresh air baffle 42, and the output shaft is arranged in the middle position of the fresh air baffle 42.

[0033] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The cabinet air conditioner 1 also includes a control circuit 70 and a temperature comparison circuit 80. The temperature comparison circuit 80 is used to compare the temperature difference between the first circulation chamber 111 and the second circulation chamber 112. The temperature comparison circuit 80 is connected to the control circuit 70 by signal; the control circuit 70 controls whether the fresh air drive motor 44 is started according to the comparison result of the temperature comparison circuit 80.

[0034] The control circuit 70 is connected to the compressor 21, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50, the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 and the fresh air device 40 by signal. Specifically, the control circuit 70 is connected to the fresh air drive motor 44 by signal to control whether the fresh air drive motor 44 is started. When the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to turn off so that the fresh air baffle 42 closes the drainage hole 31 by rotating relative to the middle partition 30, the control circuit 70 controls the compressor 21, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 to start. At this time, the cabinet air conditioner 1 is in the compressor 21 cooling mode, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 guides the external air into the first circulation chamber 111, and discharges it from the first circulation chamber 111 through the evaporator 25, and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 guides the external air into the second circulation chamber 112, and discharges it from the second circulation chamber 112 through the condenser 23. When the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to start and drives the fresh air baffle 42 to open the drainage hole 31 by rotating relative to the middle partition 30, the control circuit 70 controls the compressor 21 to turn off, and controls the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 to start, and the cabinet air conditioner 1 is in the fresh air energy-saving mode. At this time, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 guides the external air into the first circulation chamber 111, and is discharged from the second circulation chamber 112 through the drainage hole 31 and the condenser 23 in turn. The second circulation centrifugal fan 60 guides the external air into the second circulation chamber 112, and is discharged from the first circulation chamber 111 through the drainage hole 31 and the evaporator 25 in turn.

[0035] The temperature comparison circuit 80 includes a first temperature sensor 81, a second temperature sensor 82 and a comparator. The comparator is connected to the first temperature sensor 81, the second temperature sensor 82 and the control circuit 70 by signal. The first temperature sensor 81 is used to measure the first temperature value in the first circulation chamber 111, the second temperature sensor 82 is used to measure the second temperature value in the second circulation chamber 112, and the comparator is used to compare the first temperature value with the second temperature value. When the first temperature value is greater than the second temperature value, the comparator sends a first signal, and the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to start and drive the fresh air baffle 42 to open the drainage hole 31 according to the first signal. When the first temperature value is less than or equal to the second temperature value, the comparator sends a second signal, and the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to close according to the second signal, so that the fresh air baffle 42 closes the drainage hole 31.

[0036] The second temperature sensor 82 is also used to detect whether the compressor 21 fails. Specifically, when the second temperature sensor 82 detects that the temperature in the second circulation chamber 112 is greater than the preset temperature value, the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air baffle 42 to rotate and open the drainage hole 31, and controls the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 to start, that is, the cabinet air conditioner 1 is in the fresh air energy-saving mode.

[0037] In this embodiment, the cabinet air conditioner 1 further includes a filter device 90, which is installed on the air conditioner housing 10 and corresponds to the second circulation centrifugal fan 60. The filter device 90 can effectively reduce the dust particles entering the cabinet air conditioner 1. In this embodiment, the filter device 90 can be a filter net. In other embodiments, the filter device 90 can also be a filter membrane or other structure with the function of filtering dust particles.

[0038] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The working principle of the cabinet air conditioner 1 provided by the present invention is described below from the perspectives of the compressor 21 cooling mode and the fresh air energy-saving mode:

[0039] 1. Rack air conditioner 1 is in compressor 21 cooling mode

[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the first temperature value is less than or equal to the second temperature value, the comparator sends a second signal, and the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to close according to the second signal, so that the fresh air baffle 42 closes the drainage hole 31 by rotating relative to the middle partition plate 30. The control circuit 70 controls the compressor 21, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 to start. The first circulation centrifugal fan 50 guides the external air into the first circulation chamber 111 and discharges it from the first circulation chamber 111 through the evaporator 25, that is, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 draws air from the cabinet and then blows the cooled cold air into the cabinet after evaporation and heat absorption through the evaporator 25, thereby forming the first circulation airflow path of the refrigeration mode of the compressor 21; the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 guides the external air into the second circulation chamber 112 and discharges it from the second circulation chamber 112 through the condenser 23, that is, the air in the outdoor environment is blown to the condenser 23 by the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 through the filter device 90, and the heat in the condenser 23 is discharged to the atmosphere, thereby forming the second circulation airflow path of the refrigeration mode of the compressor 21. The refrigeration mode of the compressor 21 realizes the cooling of the heating device in the refrigeration mode of the compressor 21 through the first circulation airflow path and the second circulation airflow path, thereby improving the service life of the heating device.

[0041] 2. Cabinet air conditioner 1 is in fresh air energy-saving mode

[0042] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4, when the first temperature value is greater than the second temperature value, that is, when the temperature in the cabinet is higher than the outdoor ambient temperature, the comparator sends a first signal, and the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air drive motor 44 to start according to the first signal and drives the fresh air baffle 42 to open the drainage hole 31 by rotating relative to the middle partition 30, and the cabinet air conditioner 1 is in the fresh air energy-saving mode. The control circuit 70 controls the compressor 21 to turn off, and controls the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 and the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 to start. At this time, the first circulation centrifugal fan 50 guides the external air into the first circulation chamber 111, and discharges it from the second circulation chamber 112 through the drainage hole 31 and the condenser 23 in sequence, so as to discharge the heat in the cabinet to the outdoor atmosphere, thereby forming the third circulation airflow path of the fresh air energy-saving mode; the second circulation centrifugal fan 60 guides the external air into the second circulation chamber 112, and discharges it from the first circulation chamber 111 through the drainage hole 31 and the evaporator 25 in sequence, so as to introduce the fresh air from the outdoor environment into the cabinet air conditioner 1, thereby forming the fourth circulation airflow path of the fresh air energy-saving mode. The fresh air energy-saving mode introduces fresh air into the cabinet through the third circulation airflow path and the fourth circulation airflow path, and discharges the heat in the cabinet, which can also cool the heating device and increase the service life of the heating device. Since the compressor 21 in the fresh air energy-saving mode is in the off state, that is, the refrigeration system 20 does not need to be in the refrigeration state all the time, the annual energy consumption of the cabinet air conditioner 1 is reduced, and the maintenance cost of the cabinet air conditioner 1 is reduced.

[0043] When the compressor 21 fails to work, that is, the second temperature sensor 82 detects that the temperature in the second circulation chamber 112 is greater than the preset temperature value, the control circuit 70 controls the fresh air baffle 42 to rotate and open the drainage hole 31, and the cabinet air conditioner 1 is in the fresh air energy-saving mode. The heat dissipation and temperature control of the equipment in the cabinet can still be achieved, thereby reducing the safety problem of temperature control failure of the equipment in the cabinet due to the failure of the refrigeration system 20 of the cabinet air conditioner 1.

[0044] In summary, the cabinet air conditioner 1 provided by the present invention controls the refrigeration system 20 to drive air to circulate between the first circulation chamber 111 and the second circulation chamber 112 when the fresh air baffle 42 opens the drainage hole 31; when the fresh air baffle 42 closes the drainage hole 31, there is no circulation between the first circulation chamber 111 and the second circulation chamber 112, and the first circulation chamber 111 and the second circulation chamber 112 are respectively connected to the outside world, so that the refrigeration system 20 does not need to be in a cooling state all the time, thereby reducing the energy consumption and fault maintenance cost of the cabinet air conditioner 1.

[0045] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
