Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rail transit air conditioning, and in particular to a moisture storage heat exchanger function switching module for rail transit air conditioning. Background Art
[0002] Air conditioning in rail transit vehicles is the second largest electricity consumer after traction power. Taking a six-car subway train as an example, the total annual air conditioning electricity consumption per train is approximately 250,000 to 400,000 kWh (total air conditioning electricity consumption varies significantly with different vehicle types, climate, and passenger volume in different regions). In recent years, subway companies, vehicle manufacturers, and air conditioning suppliers have been forced to seek ways to reduce rail transit vehicle air conditioning energy consumption due to pressure from electricity consumption.

[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more precise definition of the protection scope of the present invention.
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention includes: a rack 1, the rack 1 includes a hanging frame 11, and a first support frame 12 and a second support frame 13 are connected and arranged parallel to each other along the length direction below the hanging frame 11. The heat exchanger module is suspended as a whole in the track air-conditioning box through the hanging frame 11. A baffle 14 is provided on the first support frame 12 to prevent air leakage between indoor and outdoor. Brushes 15 are provided at both ends of the first support frame 12 and the second support frame 13 along the length direction. The brushes 15 are made of high-temperature resistant and fire-proof materials to effectively prevent dust and isolate the chamber.
[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the frame 1 is circumferentially provided with a moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4, which includes a mounting frame 41, and a condensing assembly 43 and an evaporating assembly 42 are fixedly provided on both sides of the mounting frame. The two ends of the condensing assembly 43 and the evaporating assembly 42 are connected as a whole through a first connecting member 44 and a second connecting member 45, and the bottom ends of the first connecting member 44 and the second connecting member 45 are fixedly connected to the mounting frame 41, so that the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 constitutes a stable overall structure; the condensing assembly 43 and the evaporating assembly 42 are both stacked layer by layer by a plurality of moisture storage and heat exchangers 46, and are processed into a C or U-shaped structure by a bending machine. This embodiment embodies a C-type, and the condensing assembly 43 and the evaporating assembly 42 are combined into a hexagonal structure to effectively save space; the overlapping moisture storage and heat exchangers 46 are fixedly connected by a splint 49, and an upper frame 47 is provided on the top and a lower frame 48 is provided on the bottom, so that the evaporating assembly 42 forms a stable structure, and the condensing assembly 43 forms a stable structure in the same way.
[0036] like Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the surface of the moisture storage heat exchanger 46 is coated with a desiccant coating 412. The desiccant coating 412 uses silica gel desiccant, which can adsorb moisture in the air when the temperature drops, and desorb the adsorbed moisture when the temperature rises.
[0037] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of the condensing component 43 is connected to a drying filter 410, and the drying filter 410 is connected to an electronic expansion valve 411 through a copper tube. The electronic expansion valve 411 is connected to the evaporating component 42 through a copper tube. The drying filter 410 absorbs impurities in the refrigerant medium of the condensing component 43 to prevent blockage of the electronic expansion valve 411. The electronic expansion valve 411 adjusts the flow of the refrigerant medium in the copper tube to quickly and accurately control the evaporation pressure and condensation pressure of the air-conditioning system.
[0038] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, a servo rotation unit 2 is fixedly provided on the mounting frame 41, and the servo rotation unit 2 includes a rotary driver 21. The upper end face of the rotary driver 21 is fixed on the frame 1, and the lower end face of the rotary driver 21 is a working rotating face. The lower end face is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 41, and the mounting frame 41 is fixedly connected to the condensing component 43 and the evaporating component 42, so that the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 is in a suspended hoisting state. A reducer 23 is provided at one end of the rotary driver 21 through a rotating shaft 22, and a servo motor 24 is provided at one end of the reducer 23. The servo motor 24 provides rotational power, and the reducer 23 amplifies torque, and drives the rotary driver 21 to rotate through the rotating shaft 22. The working principle of the rotary driver 21 is conventional technology and will not be repeated here. The lower end face of the rotary driver 21 drives the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 to rotate 180° back and forth to realize the switching of the condensing component 43 and the evaporating component 42.
[0039] like Figure 2 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a liquid circuit rotating unit 3 is provided on the frame 1. The liquid circuit rotating unit 3 includes a fixed base 31 fixedly connected to the frame 1. A liquid circuit rotating valve 32 is provided above the fixed base 31. The refrigerant flows in the liquid circuit rotating valve 32. The liquid circuit rotating valve 32 includes a stator 321 fixedly connected to the fixed base, a rotor 322 rotatably arranged at the center of the stator 321, and a sealing element 329 sleeved on the circumference of the rotor 322. The bottom end of the rotor 322 is sleeved on the inner rotating surface of the rotary driver 21. A liquid inlet channel 323 and a liquid outlet channel 324 are provided in the rotor 322. The liquid inlet channel 323 and the liquid outlet channel 324 extend from the side wall of the rotor 322 to the bottom of the rotor 322. The height of the liquid inlet channel 323 is inconsistent with the height of the liquid outlet channel 324. In this embodiment, the height of the liquid inlet channel 323 is lower than the liquid outlet channel 324. A sealing element 329 is provided between the stator 321 and the rotor 322 to prevent the refrigerant in the liquid inlet channel 323 and the liquid outlet channel 324 from cross-flowing during rotation.
[0040] like Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the bottom end of the liquid inlet channel 323 is connected to the end of the condensing assembly 43 away from the drying filter 410 through a copper tube, and the lower end of the liquid outlet channel 324 is connected to the end of the evaporating assembly 42 away from the electronic expansion valve 411 through a copper tube; a liquid inlet 325 and a liquid outlet 326 are provided at the liquid inlet channel 323 and the liquid outlet channel 324 on the side wall of the stator 321 corresponding to the rotor 322, and the liquid inlet 325 and the liquid outlet 326 are connected by a copper tube adapter and provided with a liquid inlet copper tube 327 and a liquid outlet copper tube 328; the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas passes through the liquid inlet copper tube 32 7 enters the liquid inlet 325, flows through the liquid inlet channel 323, and is input into the condensing component 43 through the copper tube. After condensation in the condensing component 43, it becomes a medium-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant liquid. The medium-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant liquid is filtered by the drying filter 410 and then throttled by the electronic expansion valve 411. The throttled refrigerant becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixture, and then flows into the evaporation component 42 for evaporation. The evaporated refrigerant becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure superheated steam. The superheated steam is input into the liquid outlet channel 324 through the copper tube and is output from the liquid outlet 326 through the liquid outlet copper tube 328.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, a locking unit 5 is also provided on the frame 1, and the locking unit 5 includes a sensor 51 and a driver 52 arranged above the frame 1. The driver 52 sends a start signal, and the servo rotation unit 2 starts after receiving the signal, driving the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 to start rotating; when the sensor 51 senses that the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 rotates to the specified position, it sends a signal to the driver 52, and the driver 52 sends a signal to lock the current state.
[0042] Here's how it works:
[0043] The driver 52 sends a start signal. After receiving the signal, the servo motor 24 drives the reducer 23 to amplify the torque, and drives the rotary driver 21 to rotate through the rotating shaft 22. The rotary driver 21 drives the upper rotor 322 and the lower moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 to rotate 180° back and forth. The sensor 51 senses that the moisture storage and heat exchange unit 4 rotates 180° and transmits a signal to the driver 52. The driver 52 transmits a signal to the servo motor 24. The servo motor 24 locks the current state and completes the position exchange of the evaporation component 42 and the condensation component 43. At the same time, the liquid inlet 325 is misaligned with the liquid inlet channel 323, and the liquid outlet 326 is misaligned with the liquid outlet channel 324, stopping the inflow and outflow of the refrigerant medium.
[0044] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention's description and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
