Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of household appliances, and in particular relates to a double-cavity structure of an integrated heating pump for household appliances. Background Art

[0002] The existing technology is a single pump chamber structure, the main feature of which is an aluminum heater welded to a stainless steel heating plate by brazing. The stainless steel plate serves as a pump cover, and the non-welded surface is in contact with the heated liquid, forming a single pump chamber with the volute. The liquid is pressurized and heated at the same time in the pump chamber. The thermostat and fuse are installed on the heating plate and do not contact the heated liquid. Against this background, a dual-cavity structure for an integrated heating pump for household appliances is also currently a hot topic.

[0003] The heating plate is an aluminum heater that is brazed on a stainless steel plate. A large amount of heat is dissipated from the surface in contact with the air, resulting in heat loss. At the same time, the heater indirectly heats the liquid by heating the brazing layer and the stainless steel plate, resulting in low energy efficiency. In addition, the consistency of aluminum brazing between the aluminum heater and the stainless steel plate is poor. There may be uneven brazing thickness or even partial non-welding, resulting in poor surface temperature consistency of the stainless steel plate, and the heater may even overheat and fail due to poor thermal conductivity. Because the aluminum heater has a low temperature resistance and the heating plate has poor thermal conductivity, the area in contact with the liquid is larger, which makes the entire pump chamber larger and inconvenient to install. At the same time, the impeller accounts for too small a volume in the pump chamber, and the water pressure and flow rate are also correspondingly small. Summary of the invention

[0004] To this end, the present invention provides a dual-cavity structure of an integrated heating pump for household appliances to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A double-cavity structure of an integrated heating pump for household appliances comprises a double-cavity shell body, a partition opening is arranged on one side outer surface of the double-cavity shell body, a water guide plate for an integrated heating pump is arranged on one side outer surface of the partition opening, a heater is arranged on one side outer surface of the water guide plate for the integrated heating pump, a heating chamber for an integrated heating pump is arranged on one side outer surface of the heater, an integrated heating pump partition is arranged on the lower end outer surface of the heating chamber for the integrated heating pump, an integrated heating pump boosting chamber is arranged on the lower end outer surface of the integrated heating pump partition, and a boosting chamber base is arranged on the lower end outer surface of the boosting chamber for the integrated heating pump, The lower end outer surface of the boost chamber base is provided with an integrated heating pump motor, the lower end outer surface of the integrated heating pump water guide plate is provided with an impeller, the lower end outer surface of the impeller is provided with an integrated heating pump motor shaft and an oil seal, the oil seal is located on one side of the integrated heating pump motor shaft, a fuse is provided on the inner surface of one side of the heater, a water inlet is provided on the outer surface of one side of the impeller, a rubber pad is provided on the inner surface of one side of the double-cavity shell body, a flange is provided on the inner surface of one side of the rubber pad, a water outlet is provided on the outer surface of one side of the boost chamber for the integrated heating pump, and a pressure detection device is provided on one side of the heater.

[0007] Preferably, the water inlet is connected to the heating chamber of the integrated heat pump, the heating chamber of the integrated heat pump is connected to the boost chamber of the integrated heat pump through a partition opening, and the boost chamber of the integrated heat pump is connected to the water outlet.

[0008] Preferably, a fixing hole is provided between the heating cavity of the integrated heat pump and the heater, and the heating cavity of the integrated heat pump is fixedly connected to the heater via the fixing hole, a rubber pad, a flange and screws.

[0009] Preferably, a connecting hole is provided between the pressure detection device and the heating chamber of the integrated heat pump, and the pressure detection device is fixedly connected to the heating chamber of the integrated heat pump through the connecting hole.

[0010] Preferably, the end surface of the water guide plate for the integrated heating pump fits with the main body of the double-cavity shell to form a heating water guide groove, and the lower end surface of the water guide plate for the integrated heating pump fits with the main body of the double-cavity shell to form a pressurized water guide groove.

[0011] Preferably, the gap between the water guide plate and the impeller of the integrated heating pump is controlled to separate the heating chamber of the integrated heating pump from the boosting chamber of the integrated heating pump.

[0012] Preferably, the fuse and the heater are installed by means of a built-in fuse, and the heater is fixedly connected to the heating cavity of the integrated heat pump through a mounting hole.

[0013] The present invention has the following advantages: the dual-cavity structure of an integrated heating pump for household appliances proposed in the technical solution is designed with a dual-cavity structure, which is a heating cavity and a boosting cavity for the integrated heating pump, thereby avoiding the problem of heating and pressurizing in the same pump cavity at the same time, resulting in an excessively large overall volume of the pump cavity. At the same time, the volume of the boosting cavity is compressed, which can improve the hydraulic efficiency of the pump to a greater extent. A stainless steel heating tube is used as a heating element, and the heating tube is immersed in the heated liquid to directly heat the liquid, thereby maximizing the heating efficiency. The heating tube is made of stainless steel, and its temperature resistance is higher than that of an aluminum heater. In this way, the heater can achieve higher power and smaller volume, and is easy to install without brazing. The heater has a built-in fuse, and the pressure detection device inside the heating cavity is preferably a thermistor or a temperature switch. Compared with the prior art, its detection accuracy is higher and more accurate. In order to increase the internal usable volume of household appliances (such as dishwashers, etc.), a smaller-sized motor is used to reduce the space occupied by the water pump assembly inside the household appliance. At the same time, in order to further reduce the energy consumption of household appliances, the present invention immerses the heater in the heated liquid to reduce the energy waste of the heater conducting heat to the air.
