Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air handling equipment technology, and more specifically, to an electro-purification component and an air conditioning unit. Background Technology

[0002] Modern people spend almost all their time indoors, so the requirements for indoor air quality are relatively high. Currently, the main method for air purification is through air purifiers, and the more mature air purification technologies on the market are adsorption filtration and electrostatic adsorption. Electrostatic adsorption air purifiers work by using an electrostatic adsorption device to force airborne particles to acquire a positive charge, which is then adsorbed onto a negative electrode plate, thus filtering out particles with a diameter greater than 0.01μm, achieving air purification. However, its purification efficiency gradually decreases as the number of suspended particles increases, so the dust collection plate needs to be cleaned regularly to maintain its filtration efficiency.

[0003] In the existing technology, cleaning the electro-purification components requires manual disassembly of the components, manual cleaning of the dust collection plate, and reassembly. However, manual cleaning is not very effective, the cleanliness is inconsistent, and the cleaning efficiency is low. Moreover, the bacteria and dust particles on the dust collection plate will be exposed to the air again, which may lead to the risk of bacterial and viral infection. This results in low cleaning efficiency and poor safety of the electro-purification components. Summary of the Invention

Dust collection tray. Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but is not limited to the contents of the specification.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this invention discloses an electro-purification component, comprising: a housing 1; a dust collection plate 2 disposed within the housing 1; an ultrasonic transducer 3 disposed on the housing 1; and a cleaning brush head 4 connected to the ultrasonic transducer 3, wherein the ultrasonic transducer 3 can drive the cleaning brush head 4 to clean the dust collection plate 2. The ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic transducer 3 drive the cleaning brush head 4 to vibrate, thereby cleaning the surface of the dust collection plate 2. This avoids the time-consuming and laborious problem of frequent disassembly during cleaning of the dust collection plate 2, achieving automatic cleaning of the dust collection plate 2. Simultaneously, the ultrasonic waves emitted by the ultrasonic transducer 3 form multiple standing waves on the surface of the dust collection plate 2, causing air to explode at the cavities, which can clean fine particulate matter without damaging the surface of the dust collection plate 2, further improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0028] When the dust collection plate 2 needs to be cleaned, the ultrasonic heat exchange energy emits ultrasonic waves, which drive the cleaning brush head 4 to vibrate. At this time, the cleaning brush head 4 can scrape the surface of the dust collection plate 2 to clean the dust collection plate 2.

[0029] To increase the vibration amplitude of the ultrasonic cleaning brush head 4, the electro-purification component also includes an amplitude transformer connected to the ultrasonic transducer 3, with the cleaning brush head 4 mounted on the amplitude transformer. By increasing the vibration amplitude of the cleaning brush head 4 using the amplitude transformer, the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning brush head 4 on the dust collection plate 2 is improved.

[0030] The electro-purification component further includes a first drive mechanism 5, which is disposed on the ultrasonic transducer 3. The cleaning brush head 4 is connected to the first drive mechanism 5, and the first drive mechanism 5 can drive the cleaning brush head 4 to rotate. By driving the cleaning brush head 4 to rotate, the scraping effect of the cleaning brush head 4 on the dust collection plate 2 is improved, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0031] The electro-purification component also includes a first moving mechanism 6, which is disposed on the housing 1. The cleaning brush head 4 is disposed on the first moving mechanism 6, and the first moving mechanism 6 can drive the cleaning brush head 4 to move.

[0032] The first moving mechanism 6 includes a telescopic rod, with a first end of the telescopic rod disposed on the housing 1 and a cleaning brush head 4 disposed on the second end of the telescopic rod. The distance between the first end and the second end of the telescopic rod is adjustable. The telescopic rod can drive the cleaning brush head 4 to move on the plane of the dust collection plate 2, thereby adjusting the cleaning position of the dust collection plate 2 and ensuring the cleanliness of the dust collection plate 2.

[0033] The number of dust collection plates 2 is at least two, and there is a gap between two adjacent dust collection plates 2. The cleaning brush head 4 can move along the plane of the gap. The gap ensures that each dust collection plate 2 can work reliably, and the cleaning brush head 4 can also clean the dust collection plate 2 through the gap, which facilitates the arrangement of the cleaning brush head 4.

[0034] There are multiple spacings, and the cleaning brush head 4 can enter any one of the spacings. This ensures that the cleaning brush head 4 can clean all the dust collection plates 2, guaranteeing the cleaning effect of the electro-purification components.

[0035] The electro-purification component further includes a second moving mechanism, which is disposed on the housing 1. The first moving mechanism 6 is disposed on the second moving mechanism, and the second moving mechanism can drive the first moving mechanism 6 and the cleaning brush head 4 to move along the arrangement direction of the dust collection plates 2. By using the second moving mechanism to drive the first moving mechanism 6 and the cleaning brush head 4, they can freely switch at multiple intervals to ensure the cleaning effect on all dust collection plates 2.

[0036] Specifically, the second moving mechanism includes a slide rail 7 and a slider 8. The slide rail 7 is disposed on the housing 1, and the slider 8 is movably disposed on the slide rail 7. The slider 8 slides along the arrangement direction of the dust collection plate 2, and the first moving mechanism 6 is disposed on the slider 8.

[0037] The electro-purification component further includes a third moving mechanism, which is disposed on the first moving mechanism. The first moving mechanism is disposed on the second moving mechanism, and the first moving mechanism can drive the third moving mechanism to move so that the cleaning brush head enters or leaves the gap.

[0038] Preferably, the electro-purification component includes a servo motor, which is mounted on the ultrasonic transducer and is capable of driving the cleaning brush head 4 to rotate and to move the cleaning brush head 4 into or out of the gap.

[0039] The electro-purification component also includes an ultrasonic shield 9, which covers the ultrasonic transducer 3, with the opening of the ultrasonic shield 9 facing the dust collection plate 2. The ultrasonic shield 9 enables the ultrasonic waves to resonate with the air inside the ultrasonic shield 9, allowing the ultrasonic waves to reflect back and forth within the shield, thereby forming multiple standing waves. Under the same conditions, this maximizes the cavitation effect of the ultrasonic waves, thus improving the cleaning effect as much as possible.

[0040] In one embodiment, the electro-purification component further includes a spraying mechanism, which is disposed on the cleaning brush head 4 or the housing 1, and the spraying direction of the spraying mechanism is towards the dust collection plate 2. The spraying mechanism sprays cleaning liquid and / or water onto the dust collection plate 2 to rinse and clean it, further improving the cleaning effect.

[0041] To ensure the dust collection plate 2 can quickly return to its working state after being rinsed, the electro-purification component also includes a heating mechanism housed within the housing 1. This heating mechanism heats the interior of the housing 1, increasing the drying rate of the dust collection plate 2. Simultaneously, the heating mechanism can also kill bacteria by heating the interior of the housing 1, further enhancing the purification effect of the electro-purification component.

[0042] The electro-purification component also includes a dust collection tray 10, which is located below the dust collection plate 2. Dust and impurities on the dust collection plate 2 are collected on the dust collection tray 10, making it convenient for users to clean the electro-purification component.

[0043] The electro-purification component also includes an air quality detection mechanism, which is capable of acquiring the intake air quality and exhaust air quality of the electro-purification component, and is electrically connected to the ultrasonic transducer 3.

[0044] Preferably, the air quality monitoring system includes a dust concentration sensor. This sensor detects the dust concentration in the air. When light shines on suspended particles in the air, it scatters. The intensity of the scattered light is proportional to its mass concentration. By measuring the intensity of the scattered light and converting it to mass concentration, the particle concentration value is obtained. Hygiene standards stipulate that the dust concentration in the air must not exceed 10 mg / m³. 3 The particulate matter purification efficiency is 1 - c(external) / c(internal), where c(external) is the external dust concentration and c(internal) is the internal dust concentration (unit: mg / m³). Under normal circumstances, the particulate matter purification efficiency after electro-purification is 99%. When the purification efficiency of the electro-purification component is lower than the preset value, the ultrasonic transducer 3 is controlled to work, simultaneously driving the cleaning brush head 4 to clean. When the first drive mechanism 5, the first moving mechanism 6, the second moving mechanism, and the third moving mechanism are included, the air quality detection mechanism can also perform corresponding control, thereby ensuring the self-cleaning purpose of the electro-purification component.

[0045] The number of cleaning brush heads 4 is at least two, and all cleaning brush heads 4 are disposed within the housing 1. The cleaning brush heads 4 can move synchronously to clean different dust collection plates 2 simultaneously, or they can clean the same dust collection plate 2 simultaneously, both of which can improve the cleaning efficiency of the electro-purification component.

[0046] The ultrasonic transducer 3 has at least two operating modes, and the frequencies of the ultrasonic waves emitted in all operating modes are different. The ultrasonic transducer 3 can be adjusted according to preset conditions to emit ultrasonic waves of different frequencies, thereby achieving different cleaning effects.

[0047] As one implementation, the operating mode includes at least a first operating mode and a second operating mode. In the first operating mode, the ultrasonic transducer 3 emits ultrasonic waves at a frequency of 60kHz; in the second operating mode, the ultrasonic transducer 3 emits ultrasonic waves at a frequency of 28kHz. When the particulate matter purification efficiency of the electro-purification component is between 80% and 90%, it indicates that some tiny particles are attached to the dust collection plate 2. The ultrasonic transducer 3 switches to the first operating mode, that is, emitting 60kHz ultrasonic waves. At this time, the generated cavities are small and numerous, with low bursting force but large range, which can clean tiny particles without damaging the surface of the dust collection plate 2. When the particulate matter purification efficiency of the electro-purification component is less than 80%, there are more particles attached to the dust collection plate 2, requiring greater cleaning force. At this time, the ultrasonic transducer 3 switches to the second operating mode. At this time, the generated cavities are large and few, with strong bursting force, resulting in a higher cleaning density and a higher cleaning effect.

[0048] Another aspect of the present invention provides an air conditioning unit including the above-described electro-purification component.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all embodiments here. All obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
