Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an atomization system accessory, a cabinet air conditioning component, an integrated cabinet, and a control method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, existing integrated cabinet air conditioner condensate recovery and utilization technologies involve drawing condensate from a condensate drip tray into a water storage mechanism on top of the condenser, and then using atomizing nozzles to spray water mist into the condenser for cooling, or directly dripping the condensate into the condenser. A water aerator then atomizes the condensate into small droplets, which are then sprayed onto the condenser by a fan. This requires integrating the water storage and water aerator mechanisms into the integrated cabinet air conditioner, resulting in a relatively large overall size.

[0003] However, the installation space for integrated cabinet air conditioners in integrated cabinets is limited, which can easily lead to the integrated cabinet air conditioner being too large to meet the size installation requirements of the integrated cabinet.

[0004] In other words, existing integrated cabinet air conditioners have the problem that their external dimensions are too large to meet the size installation requirements of integrated cabinets. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides an atomizing system accessory, a cabinet air conditioning component, an integrated cabinet, and a control method to solve the problem that the integrated cabinet air conditioner is too large to meet the size installation requirements of the integrated cabinet.

[0009] In one embodiment, the airflow guiding structure includes: a first air guide plate disposed within a first housing; and

[0010] The second air guide plate is spaced apart from the first air guide plate in the first direction;

[0011] The mounting hole is located between the first air guide plate and the second air guide plate. The first air guide plate and the second air guide plate are used to limit the flow of water mist in the first direction and guide the water mist to the air inlet in the second direction.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first air guide plate has a gap with the inner bottom surface of the first box, and / or the second air guide plate has a gap with the inner bottom surface of the first box.

[0013] In one embodiment, an overflow port is provided on the side wall of the first box, which is used to prevent the condensate in the first box from exceeding a preset liquid level.

[0014] In one embodiment, a vent is provided on the side wall of the first box, which can connect the interior of the first box with the outside air to prevent negative pressure from being generated inside.

[0015] In one embodiment, a mounting bracket is also included, which is disposed on the first housing and used to fix the first housing to the external connector.

[0016] In one embodiment, the device further includes an atomizer mounting bracket, which is fixedly connected to the outer bottom surface of the first housing to fix the atomizing device in the mounting hole.

[0017] In one embodiment, a liquid level switch is also included, which is disposed within the first housing for real-time monitoring of the liquid level within the first housing.

[0018] In one embodiment, a gas flow sensor is also included, which is disposed within the first box to monitor the flow of water mist within the first box.

[0019] In one embodiment, the system further includes an atomization system controller electrically connected to the atomizing device, or electrically connected to the atomizing device and a level switch, or electrically connected to the atomizing device, the level switch, and a gas flow sensor.

[0020] In one embodiment, a second housing is also included, which is connected to the first housing, and the atomization system controller is disposed in the second housing.

[0021] In one embodiment, a fixing bracket is provided at the bottom of the first housing, and the fixing bracket is provided with a threaded hole. The atomization system accessories also include a threaded fastener, which is inserted into the second housing. One end of the threaded fastener protruding from the second housing is screwed into the threaded hole to press and fix the second housing onto the first housing.

[0022] In one embodiment, a limit switch is also included, which is mounted on a fixed bracket. When the threaded fastener is tightened into the threaded hole, the threaded fastener impacts and triggers the limit switch; when the threaded fastener is removed from the threaded hole, the threaded fastener stops triggering the limit switch.

[0023] In one embodiment, a support bracket is provided at the bottom of the first box body, and the support bracket and the fixed bracket are spaced apart in the third direction. The support bracket is provided with an opening, and the second box body partially slides into the opening along the opening of the opening.

[0024] In one embodiment, when the second housing slides into the opening along the opening and comes into contact with the support bracket, the threaded hole on the fixed bracket aligns with the through hole on the second housing so as to insert a threaded fastener.

[0025] In one embodiment, a hook is provided at the bottom of the first box and a hook is provided inside the second box. When the second box is completely removed from the opening, the second box falls under its own weight, causing the hook to hang on the hook.

[0026] In one embodiment, the bottom of the opening is provided with a first wire hole for passing through an external wire, and / or an inner bending plate is provided at the corner of the first housing, with a second wire hole provided on the inner bending plate, through which the connection wire of the liquid level switch passes and through the inner bending plate into the second housing.

[0027] In one embodiment, a baffle is also included, which covers the inner bending plate to prevent the connecting wires from being exposed outside the first housing.

[0028] The present invention also provides a cabinet air conditioning component, comprising: a cabinet door panel having an opening; an integrated cabinet air conditioner fixed in the opening; and the aforementioned atomizing system accessory, wherein the atomizing system accessory is fixed to the cabinet door panel and the bottom of the integrated cabinet air conditioner is located inside the atomizing system accessory.

[0030] This invention also provides a control method for controlling atomizing system components. These components are located outside an integrated cabinet air conditioner. The fan of the integrated cabinet air conditioner draws the water mist generated by the atomizing system components into the air conditioner through the air inlet. The control method for the atomizing system components includes a level switch, a gas flow sensor, an atomizing system controller, and an atomizing device. The atomizing system controller is electrically connected to the level switch, the gas flow sensor, and the atomizing device. The control method includes:

[0031] The atomization system components are powered on;

[0032] The atomization system controller determines whether the fan is running based on information sent by the gas flow sensor.

[0033] If the fan is running, proceed to the next step of the judgment;

[0034] The atomization system controller determines whether the liquid level switch has been triggered.

[0035] If the liquid level switch is triggered, the atomization system controller will start the atomization device.

[0036] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention lie in its external placement of the atomizing system components within the integrated cabinet air conditioner. This eliminates the need to integrate water storage and dispensing mechanisms within the integrated cabinet air conditioner. This simplifies the structure of the integrated cabinet air conditioner, reduces its size, and avoids the problem of existing integrated cabinet air conditioners being too large to meet the size requirements of the integrated cabinet, thus ensuring that the integrated cabinet air conditioner can be correctly installed within the integrated cabinet.

Detailed Implementation

[0053] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0054] It should be noted that the integrated cabinet in this application is a 5G cabinet, and the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 in this application is a 5G cabinet air conditioner.

[0055] It should be noted that most rack-mounted air conditioners on the market drip condensate from the base of the unit. This is feasible for outdoor installation, but if installed indoors, it will cause condensate to flow everywhere. Adding a drain pipe would be cumbersome and affect the appearance. Therefore, a feasible way to recycle and treat the condensate is needed.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present invention provides an atomizing system accessory 100 for use in an integrated cabinet air conditioner 200. The atomizing system accessory 100 includes a first housing 10 and an atomizing device 20. The first housing 10 is disposed outside the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 and is used to collect condensate from the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200. The atomizing device 20 is disposed within the first housing 10 and is used to atomize the condensate within the first housing 10 into water mist. The integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 can draw in the water mist to cool its internal condenser.

[0057] In the above configuration, the atomizing system accessory 100 is externally mounted within the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200. This eliminates the need to integrate water storage and dispensing mechanisms within the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200. This simplifies the structure of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200, reduces its size, and avoids the problem in related technologies where the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 is too large to meet the size requirements of the integrated cabinet, thus ensuring that the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 can be correctly installed within the integrated cabinet. Furthermore, the atomizing system accessory 100 atomizes condensate into water mist through the atomizing device 20, improving the water mist production efficiency and consequently increasing the condensate recovery efficiency of the atomizing system accessory 100.

[0058] Furthermore, the atomizing system accessory 100, as an external accessory of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200, is compatible with integrated cabinet air conditioners 200 currently on the market that do not have condensate recovery functionality. Simply attaching the external atomizing system accessory 100 to the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 enables it to have condensate recovery functionality, thus giving the atomizing system accessory 100 high versatility. At the same time, it avoids the problem of replacing the internal unit of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 to enable condensate recovery functionality, thereby saving costs.

[0059] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 9As shown, in one embodiment, the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 is provided with an air inlet 201, and the bottom of the first box 10 is provided with a mounting hole 11. An atomizing device 20 is installed in the mounting hole 11. The mounting hole 11 is corresponding to the air inlet 201 so that water mist can be drawn in from the air inlet 201 of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200.

[0060] In the above configuration, the mounting hole 11 is aligned with the air inlet 201, which makes it easier for the water mist generated by the atomizing device 20 to be drawn into the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 from the air inlet 201, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the water mist on the condenser.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 2 In one implementation, the atomizing device 20 employs an ultrasonic atomizer.

[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 9 In one implementation, the mounting hole 11 is located directly below the air inlet 201.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomizing system accessory 100 also includes a flow guiding structure 30 disposed within the first housing 10. The flow guiding structure 30 is used to guide the water mist to the air inlet 201. The flow guiding structure 30 increases the amount of water mist entering the air inlet 201, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the water mist on the condenser.

[0064] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the airflow guiding structure 30 includes a first air guide plate 31 and a second air guide plate 32. The first air guide plate 31 is disposed within the first housing 10; the second air guide plate 32 is spaced apart from the first air guide plate 31 in a first direction; a mounting hole 11 is located between the first air guide plate 31 and the second air guide plate 32. The first air guide plate 31 and the second air guide plate 32 limit the flow of water mist in the first direction and guide the water mist along the second direction to the air inlet 201. This increases the amount of water mist entering the air inlet 201, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the condenser.

[0065] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the first air guide plate 31 has a gap with the inner bottom surface 12 of the first box 10, and the second air guide plate 32 has a gap with the inner bottom surface 12 of the first box 10.

[0066] In the above configuration, the gap is designed to prevent the first air guide plate 31 or the second air guide plate 32 from blocking the flow of condensate water in the first box 10 to the atomizing device 20. That is, the condensate water can flow from the gap to the atomizing device 20, thereby ensuring that the atomizing device 20 can continuously produce water mist.

[0067] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, an overflow port 13 is provided on the side wall of the first housing 10. The overflow port 13 is used to prevent the condensate in the first housing 10 from exceeding a preset liquid level. In this way, condensate exceeding the preset liquid level can only overflow from the overflow port 13, thus avoiding the problem of condensate overflowing in other places when there is too much condensate.

[0068] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, a vent 14 is provided on the side wall of the first box 10. The vent 14 can connect the interior of the first box 10 with the outside air to prevent negative pressure from being generated inside.

[0069] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes a mounting bracket 40, which is disposed on the first housing 10 and is used to fix the first housing 10 to an external connector (in this application, the cabinet door panel 600).

[0070] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, there are two mounting brackets 40, which are respectively set on both sides of the first housing 10.

[0071] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomizing system accessory 100 also includes an atomizer mounting bracket 60, which is fixedly connected to the outer bottom surface 15 of the first housing 10 for fixing the atomizing device 20 in the mounting hole 11.

[0072] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes a level switch 50, which is disposed inside the first housing 10 for real-time monitoring of the liquid level inside the first housing 10.

[0073] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes a gas flow sensor 70, which is disposed inside the first housing 10 to monitor the flow of water mist inside the first housing 10.

[0074] Specifically, such as Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes an atomization system controller 120, which is electrically connected to the atomization device 20, the level switch 50, and the gas flow sensor 70.

[0075] In the above configuration, the atomization system controller 120 can control the start and stop of the atomization device 20 according to the liquid level signal sent by the liquid level switch 50. The atomization system controller 120 can also control the start and stop of the atomization device 20 according to the gas flow signal sent by the gas flow sensor 70.

[0076] It should be noted that the atomization system controller 120 can determine whether the fan inside the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 is started based on the gas flow signal. When the fan is started, the atomization system controller 120 can start the atomization device 20. The atomization system controller 120 can determine whether the liquid level has reached the preset water level based on the liquid level signal. When the preset water level is reached, the atomization system controller 120 can start the atomization device 20.

[0077] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes a second housing 80, which is connected to the first housing 10. The atomization system controller 120 is disposed within the second housing 80. The second housing 80 serves as an electrical enclosure, primarily for housing the atomization system controller 120. It can also house other electrical components and their wiring.

[0078] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, a fixing bracket 16 is provided at the bottom of the first housing 10. The fixing bracket 16 is provided with a threaded hole. The atomizing system accessory 100 also includes a threaded fastener. The threaded fastener passes through the second housing 80. One end of the threaded fastener that passes through the second housing 80 is screwed into the threaded hole to press and fix the second housing 80 onto the first housing 10.

[0079] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one implementation, the threaded fastener uses a fixing screw 150.

[0080] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomization system accessory 100 also includes a limit switch 90, which is mounted on the fixed bracket 16. When a threaded fastener is tightened into the threaded hole, the fastener impacts and triggers the limit switch 90; when the fastener is removed from the threaded hole, the fastener stops triggering the limit switch 90. The limit switch 90 is connected to the atomization system controller 120, which determines the opening and closing of the limit switch 90.

[0081] In the above configuration, the power supply to the atomization system controller 120 is controlled by the opening and closing of the limit switch 90. This ensures that the atomization system accessory 100 can only be powered on and operate normally after it is properly assembled and installed (after the first housing 10 and the second housing 80 are fixedly connected), thereby ensuring that the atomization system accessory 100 can operate safely and stably.

[0082] It should be noted that when limit switch 90 is closed, the atomization system controller 120 is powered on. When limit switch 90 is open, the atomization system controller 120 is de-powered. When a threaded fastener impacts and triggers limit switch 90, limit switch 90 transmits a signal and closes. When the threaded fastener exits the threaded hole, the threaded fastener stops triggering limit switch 90, limit switch 90 stops transmitting signals, and limit switch 90 opens.

[0083] Specifically, such as Figure 6 In one implementation, the fixing bracket 16 is welded to the outer bottom surface 15, thus avoiding the use of screw connections and preventing condensate in the first housing 10 from leaking into the second housing 80 through the screw holes.

[0084] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, a support bracket 17 is provided at the bottom of the first housing 10. The support bracket 17 and the fixed bracket 16 are spaced apart in the third direction. The support bracket 17 has an opening 171, and the second housing 80 partially slides into the opening 171. The opening 171 allows the second housing 80 to partially slide into the opening 171 so that the support bracket 17 can support the second housing 80, thereby facilitating the subsequent fixing of the second housing 80 to the first housing 10. This improves the assembly efficiency of the atomization system accessory 100.

[0085] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, when the second housing 80 slides into the opening 171 along the opening and comes into contact with the support bracket 17, the threaded hole on the fixed bracket 16 aligns with the through hole on the second housing 80 so as to insert a threaded fastener.

[0086] In the above configuration, the opening 171 has a limiting function. When the opening 171 comes into contact with the support bracket 17, it limits the alignment of the threaded hole and the through hole. This facilitates the subsequent insertion of threaded fasteners, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the atomization system accessory 100.

[0087] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the support bracket 17 is welded to the outer bottom surface 15, thus avoiding the use of screw connections and preventing condensate in the first housing 10 from leaking into the second housing 80 through the screw holes.

[0088] Specifically, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, a hook 18 is provided at the bottom of the first box 10, and a hook 81 is provided inside the second box 80. When the second box 80 is completely withdrawn from the opening 171, the second box 80 falls under its own weight, causing the hook 81 to be suspended on the hook 18.

[0089] In the above configuration, after the second box 80 is pulled forward a certain distance, the built-in hook 81 will naturally hook onto the hook 18, forming an open state, which makes it convenient for maintenance workers to repair or replace the electrical components or wiring inside the second box 80.

[0090] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the hook 18 is welded to the outer bottom surface 15, thus avoiding the use of screw connections and preventing condensate in the first housing 10 from leaking into the second housing 80 through the screw holes.

[0091] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the bottom of the opening 171 is provided with a first wire hole 1711 for passing through an external line 300. An inner bending plate 19 is provided at the corner of the first housing 10, and a second wire hole 191 is provided on the inner bending plate 19. The connection line 401 of the liquid level switch 50 passes through the second wire hole 191 and passes through the inner bending plate 19 into the second housing 80.

[0092] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the external line 300 includes a first communication line 301 connecting the atomizing system accessory 100 to the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200, and a power line 302 connecting the atomizing system accessory 100 to the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200.

[0093] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, a second communication line 403 is provided between the atomizing device 20 and the atomizing system controller 120, and a third communication line (the aforementioned connection line 401) is provided between the liquid level switch 50 and the atomizing system controller 120.

[0094] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the atomizing system accessory 100 also includes a baffle 110, which covers the inner bent plate 19 to prevent the connecting wires 401 from being exposed outside the first housing 10. This avoids the connecting wires 401 being exposed to the outside and being damaged or leaking electricity due to interference from external environmental factors. This ensures that the atomizing system accessory 100 can operate safely and stably.

[0095] Specifically, such as Figure 8As shown, in one embodiment, one end of the baffle 110 is fixed to the top of the first housing 10 by a connecting screw 140, and the other end of the baffle 110 is fixed to the second housing 80 by a connecting screw 140.

[0096] It should be noted that the connecting line 401 and the second communication line 403 are located within the atomization system accessory 100. The connecting line 401, the second communication line 403, and the first communication line 301 are low-voltage lines, while the power line 302 is a high-voltage line.

[0097] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, fixing hooks 130 are provided in the inner bending plate 19, the outer bottom surface 15 of the first box 10, and the interior of the second box 80. The fixing hooks 130 are used to fix the low-voltage lines and the high-voltage lines.

[0098] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing hook 130 is welded to the outer bottom surface 15 of the first housing 10, thus avoiding the use of screw connections and preventing condensate in the first housing 10 from leaking into the second housing 80 through the screw holes.

[0099] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the present invention also provides a cabinet air conditioning component, including a cabinet door panel 600, an integrated cabinet air conditioner 200, and an atomizing system accessory 100. The cabinet door panel 600 has an opening, the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 is fixed within the opening, the atomizing system accessory 100 is fixed to the cabinet door panel 600, and the bottom of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 is located within the atomizing system accessory 100.

[0100] like Figure 12 As shown, the present invention also provides a rack air conditioning assembly, including a rack body 500 and the aforementioned rack air conditioning assembly. The rack body 500 is provided with a window, the rack door panel 600 of the rack air conditioning assembly is disposed within the window, and the air outlet of the integrated rack air conditioner 200 is located within the rack body 500.

[0101] The present invention also provides a control method for an atomizing system accessory 100. The control method controls the atomizing system accessory 100, enabling the fan of the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 to draw water mist generated by the atomizing system accessory into the integrated cabinet air conditioner 200 from the air inlet 201. The control method includes:

[0102] The atomization system components are powered on;

[0103] The atomization system controller determines whether the fan is running based on information sent by the gas flow sensor.

[0104] If the fan is running, proceed to the next step of the judgment;

[0105] The atomization system controller determines whether the liquid level switch has been triggered.

[0106] If the liquid level switch is triggered, the atomization system controller will start the atomization device.

[0107] Specifically, such as Figure 13 As shown, the present invention provides a more specific control method, including the following steps:

[0108] Step 1: Power on the atomization system components;

[0109] Step 2: Determine whether the limit switch is closed;

[0110] Specifically, in step two, if the limit switch is not closed, the high voltage of the atomization system controller is disconnected;

[0111] It should be noted that after disconnecting the high-voltage power to the atomization system controller, return to step one until the limit switch closes. When the limit switch is closed, it indicates that the first housing 10 and the second housing 80 are connected. If the limit switch is not closed, it indicates that the first housing 10 and the second housing 80 are not connected.

[0112] Specifically, in step two, if the limit switch is closed, the next step of judgment and identification is performed;

[0113] Step 3: Determine if the fan is running;

[0114] Specifically, in step three, if the fan is running, the next step of judgment and identification is performed;

[0115] Step 4: Determine if the liquid level switch has been triggered;

[0116] Specifically, in step four, if the liquid level switch is triggered, atomization begins.

[0117] It should be noted that when the internal unit of the atomizing system accessory 100 is powered on, if the limit switch 90 is not closed, the high-voltage power to the atomizing system controller 120 will be disconnected until the electrical box is closed (the second box 80 is connected to the first box 10), causing the limit switch 90 to close. After the gas flow sensor 70 detects that the fan is on, it proceeds to the next step of judgment and recognition. When the water level reaches the preset level, it triggers the liquid level switch 50, thereby causing the ultrasonic atomizer to start working. When the ultrasonic atomizer is working, if the fan is not on or the water level is insufficient to trigger the liquid level switch 50, the ultrasonic atomizer will stop working.

[0118] Although the invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict. The invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
