Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] Air conditioning, or air conditioner, refers to a device that uses artificial means to adjust and control parameters such as the temperature, humidity, and flow rate of the ambient air in a building or structure.

[0003] The air conditioner of the prior art includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit includes an evaporator, and the outdoor unit includes a compressor, a condenser, a drying bottle (or a liquid storage tank), and an expansion valve (or a throttling component). The refrigeration principle of the air conditioner is usually that the compressor compresses the gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, and sends it to the condenser for cooling. After cooling, it becomes a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the drying bottle for filtration and dehumidification. After filtration and dehumidification, the medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant is throttled and reduced in pressure by the expansion valve (throttling component) to become a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixture (usually more liquid), which absorbs heat in the air through the evaporator and vaporizes into a gaseous state, thereby achieving refrigeration by absorbing heat in the air.

[0004] However, when the air conditioner is usually in cooling mode, the indoor unit blows out cold air, while the outdoor unit blows out hot air. Since the hot air blown out by the outdoor unit is directly discharged into the atmosphere, energy is wasted. Summary of the invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this embodiment, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0029] In this embodiment, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this embodiment can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] Figures 1 to 6 The air conditioner provided by the present invention is shown. As can be seen from the figure, the air conditioner provided by the present invention includes an outdoor unit 1, a heat transfer component 2 and a dryer 3. The outdoor unit 1 includes a condenser 11 and an outdoor unit circuit board 12; the heat transfer component 2 connects the condenser 11 and the outdoor unit circuit board 12, and the heat transfer component 2 extends toward the dryer 3. The heat transfer component 2 is used to transfer the heat released by the condenser 11 and the outdoor unit circuit board 12 to the dryer 3.

[0031] In the air conditioner provided by the present invention, the heat transfer component 2 can transfer the heat released by the condenser 11 of the outdoor unit 1 and the outdoor unit circuit board 12 to the dryer 3, and utilize the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 during cooling of the air conditioner to evaporate and dry the moisture in the washed clothes in the dryer 3, thereby improving the utilization rate of energy, saving energy, and solving the technical problem in the prior art that the hot air blown out by the outdoor unit 1 is directly discharged into the atmosphere, causing energy waste.

[0032] It is understandable that nowadays, energy problems are becoming increasingly serious. In the field of refrigeration, reducing energy consumption and improving energy utilization are the key issues in the current air-conditioning industry. When the air conditioner is in cooling mode, while the indoor unit brings a comfortable and cool experience to the user, the hot air blown out by the outdoor unit 1 is directly transmitted to the outside, resulting in energy waste. To this end, the present invention proposes an air conditioner that can simultaneously meet the user's dual needs of indoor cooling and drying clothes.

[0033] It can also be understood that excessive temperature of circuit components (such as chips) on the outdoor unit circuit board 12 (or electronic control system) will cause current limiting, thereby reducing the frequency of the compressor and the cooling capacity of the air conditioner. In the long run, it will also affect the service life of the circuit components. Therefore, through the above-mentioned structural setting, the cooling capacity of the air conditioner can also be improved.

[0034] Specifically, the heat transfer component 2 includes a first heat pipe 21 and a second heat pipe 22, one end of the first heat pipe 21 is connected to the condenser 11, and the other end of the first heat pipe 21 extends toward the dryer 3; one end of the second heat pipe 22 is connected to the outdoor unit circuit board 12, and the other end of the second heat pipe 22 extends toward the dryer 3.

[0035] In specific implementation, the first heat pipe 21 can transfer the heat released by the condenser 11 to the dryer 3, and the second heat pipe 22 can transfer the heat released by the outdoor unit circuit board 12 to the dryer 3. That is, the heat source of the dryer 3 mainly comes from the heat released by the condenser 11 and the heat released by the outdoor unit circuit board 12.

[0036] It can be understood that, compared with a single heat transfer component 2 such as a copper tube or a heat sink, the use of heat pipes (the first heat pipe 21 and the second heat pipe 22) can improve the heat transfer efficiency, so that the heat of the outdoor unit 1 can be quickly transferred to the dryer 3, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the dryer 3, reducing heat loss during the transfer process, and solving the technical problems of low drying efficiency and easy heat loss during the transfer process.

[0037] It can also be understood that a heat pipe is a heat pipe with a liquid wick, and its structure is usually a tube shell and a liquid wick arranged in the tube shell, and the liquid wick is soaked in a liquid phase medium. The principle of the heat pipe is that a layer of a liquid wick with a porous capillary structure is embedded in the inner wall of a closed high-vacuum tube or cylinder, and the liquid wick is soaked in a liquid phase medium. The heat pipe includes an evaporation section and a condensation section. The external heat source inputs heat in the evaporation section to evaporate and vaporize the liquid phase medium, and then the steam flows to the condensation section for condensation, and the released latent heat of vaporization is sent to the outside world, thereby realizing heat transfer. The condensed liquid is retracted into the liquid wick, and mainly relies on the action of capillary force to flow back to the evaporation section, which can complete the automatic circulation of the medium.

[0038] In some embodiments, the heat pipe may be a fully enclosed structure with two right-angle bends, containing a refrigerant (or liquid working fluid) inside. The heat pipe (for example, the second heat pipe 22) may include an evaporation section, an insulation section and a condensation section connected in sequence. The evaporation section may be installed in the electrical control box of the outdoor unit 1 and contact the vertically placed computer board (outdoor unit circuit board 12). The refrigerant in the evaporation section vaporizes because it absorbs the high heat of the electrical components (circuit components) of the computer board; the insulation section is mainly used to connect the evaporation section and the condensation section to prevent heat loss, and the insulation section usually needs to be insulated; the condensation section may be arranged in the dryer 3 or in the connecting pipe 4 to transfer to the dryer 3.

[0039] Furthermore, the air conditioner provided by the present invention may further include a connecting pipe 4 , through which the outdoor unit 1 is connected to the clothes dryer 3 , and the first heat pipe 21 and the second heat pipe 22 are located in the connecting pipe 4 .

[0040] During specific implementation, the heat can be transferred through the connecting pipe 4, that is, the heat is located in the connecting pipe 4 and is not easy to be lost to the outside, which can further improve the utilization rate of energy and save energy.

[0041] Furthermore, the air conditioner provided by the present invention may also include a first duct fan 5 , which is arranged in the connecting pipe 4 and is used to supply air to the dryer 3 .

[0042] In specific implementation, starting the first duct fan 5 can accelerate the transfer of heat from the outdoor unit 1 to the dryer 3, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency, improving the drying efficiency, and solving the technical problem of low drying efficiency.

[0043] In this embodiment, the clothes dryer 3 may include a clothes drying component 31, a clothes airing component 32 and a windshield 33. The clothes drying component 31 has a first clothes holding cavity 311 and a first air inlet 312 that can be communicated with the first clothes holding cavity 311. The clothes airing component 32 is arranged side by side with the clothes drying component 31 and has a second clothes holding cavity 321 and a second air inlet 322 that can be communicated with the second clothes holding cavity 321. The connecting pipe 4 has a first end and a second end. The first end of the connecting pipe 4 is connected to the outdoor unit 1, and the connecting pipe 4 is connected to the outdoor unit 1. The second end of the connecting pipe 4 connects the clothes drying part 31 and the clothes airing part 32, and the second end cover of the connecting pipe 4 is arranged on the first air inlet 312 and the second air inlet 322; the wind shield 33 is arranged in the connecting pipe 4, and the wind shield 33 has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the outdoor unit 1 is connected to the first air inlet 312 and the second air inlet 322 through the connecting pipe 4; in the second state, the wind shield 33 covers the first air inlet 312, and the outdoor unit 1 is connected to the second air inlet 322 through the connecting pipe 4.

[0044] In specific implementation, when the user washes a lot of clothes and needs to dry the clothes and speed up the drying of the clothes, the windshield 33 can be placed in the first state, such as Figure 4 As shown, for example, the windshield 33 can be arranged vertically, so that the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 is transferred to the first clothing chamber 311 and the second clothing chamber 321 through the first air inlet 312 and the second air inlet 322, respectively, to achieve drying of clothes and speed up the speed of drying clothes; for another example, when only the speed of drying clothes needs to be accelerated, the windshield 33 can be placed in the second state, such as Figure 5 As shown, for example, the wind shield 33 arranged vertically can be rotated counterclockwise (toward the left) by 90 degrees, so that the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 is transferred to the second clothing chamber 321 through the second air inlet 322, thereby accelerating the speed of drying clothes. That is, the clothes dryer 3 of the present invention not only has a conventional drying area, but also has a clothes drying area.

[0045] Specifically, the clothes drying part 31 and the clothes airing part 32 can be made of transparent materials to facilitate observation of the dryness or wetness of the clothes. The clothes drying part 31 can be used to evaporate the moisture in the clothes and dry the clothes using the heat released by the outdoor unit 1; the clothes airing part 32 can be used to dry the clothes; and the wind shield 33 is equivalent to a valve.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, further, the wind shield 33 also has a third state. In the third state, the wind shield 33 covers the second air inlet 322 , and the outdoor unit 1 is connected to the first air inlet 312 through the connecting pipe 4 .

[0047] In specific implementation, when the user only needs to dry clothes, the wind shield 33 can be placed in the third state, for example, the vertically arranged wind shield 33 can be rotated ninety degrees clockwise (to the right), so that the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 is transferred to the first clothing chamber 311 through the first air inlet 312, thereby drying the clothes.

[0048] In this embodiment, the air conditioner provided by the present invention may also include a heating device 6 and a second duct fan 7; the heating device 6 is arranged in the first clothing cavity 311; the second duct fan 7 is arranged in the connecting pipe 4, and in the third state, and when the heating device 6 is turned on, the second duct fan 7 is used to supply air to the outdoor unit 1.

[0049] In specific implementation, the heating device 6 can be used to increase the speed of drying clothes, that is, not only the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 can be used to dry clothes, but also the heat released by the heating device 6 can be used to dry clothes, thereby solving the technical problem of low efficiency in drying clothes.

[0050] In addition, in the third state, and when the heating device 6 is turned on, the second duct fan 7 is used to supply air to the outdoor unit 1, thereby allowing hot air to flow back, thereby defrosting the outdoor unit 1. Therefore, the clothes dryer 3 of the present invention can not only be used to dry (dry and air) clothes, but also defrost the outdoor unit 1. There is no need to set an additional heating component for defrosting in the outdoor unit 1, which reduces costs.

[0051] Specifically, the heating device 6 may be a heating film, covering the cavity wall of the first clothing holding cavity 311 .

[0052] In specific implementation, the above-mentioned structural arrangement can increase the heat exchange area, thereby increasing the speed of drying clothes and further solving the technical problem of low efficiency in drying clothes.

[0053] In this embodiment, the heating device 6 may be an existing one. In some embodiments, the heating device 6 may be a solar heating structure or an electric heating structure.

[0054] In some embodiments, a temperature sensor may be further included, located in the first clothing holding cavity 311 , for detecting the temperature in the first clothing holding cavity 311 .

[0055] In some embodiments, a controller may be further included, connected to the temperature sensor and the heating device 6, and when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the first clothing holding cavity 311 is lower than a preset value (for example, thirty degrees), the controller turns on the heating device 6.

[0056] In specific implementation, the temperature sensor can be used to detect the temperature in the first clothing holding cavity 311. If the temperature is too low, it will not only affect the speed of drying clothes, but also the speed of defrosting. Through the above-mentioned structural setting, automatic defrosting can be achieved.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner provided by the present invention may also include a rotating shaft 8 and a rotating motor; the wind shield 33 is rotatably arranged in the connecting pipe 4 through the rotating shaft 8; the rotating motor is arranged at the top of the drying part 31 and the drying part 32, and the output shaft of the rotating motor is connected to the outer end of the rotating shaft 8.

[0058] In specific implementation, when it is necessary to switch between the first state, the second state and the third state, the rotating motor can be started to drive the wind shield 33 to move using the rotating shaft 8, and then switch between the first state, the second state and the third state. As a result, there is no need to manually drive the wind shield 33, which reduces the difficulty of switching, improves the switching efficiency, and solves the technical problem of low driving efficiency of the wind shield 33.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present invention, the outdoor unit 1 may further include an outdoor unit casing 13, the surface of the outdoor unit casing 13 has a vent 131, the condenser 11 and the outdoor unit circuit board 12 are arranged in the outdoor unit casing 13, and the first end of the connecting pipe 4 is connected to the outdoor unit casing 13 and covered with the vent 131.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific implementation, the heat released by the outdoor unit 1 (condenser 11 and outdoor unit circuit board 12) enters the connecting pipe 4 through the vents 131 on the surface of the outdoor unit casing 13 under the action of the first duct fan 5, and is transferred to the dryer 3 through the connecting pipe 4.

[0061] In this embodiment, the type of the air conditioner is not specifically limited, for example, it can be a cabinet air conditioner or a wall mounted air conditioner.

Moreover, the first feature being "above", "above" and "above" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. The first feature being "below", "below" and "below" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0063] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time.
