Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of integrated stove technology, and in particular to an integrated stove with air conditioning and hot water functions. Background Technology

[0002] An integrated cooktop, also known as an eco-friendly cooktop or integrated eco-friendly cooktop, is a kitchen appliance that combines multiple functions such as a range hood, gas stove, disinfection cabinet, and storage cabinet. It has advantages such as saving space, good smoke extraction, energy saving, low consumption, and environmental protection.

[0003] Currently, integrated cooktops on the market only have cooking, storage, and refrigeration functions. Existing integrated cooktops cause the kitchen to continuously heat up during use. When the temperature and humidity are high, it can cause discomfort in the kitchen. Furthermore, integrated cooktops with refrigeration functions will continue to increase the temperature, leading to even greater discomfort and higher energy consumption. Based on this, an integrated cooktop with air conditioning and hot water functions has been designed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome at least one of the defects described in the prior art, the present invention provides an integrated stove with air conditioning and hot water functions. This integrated stove effectively combines air conditioning (cooling and heating), constant temperature chamber control, hot water, and dehumidification functions, improving the temperature and humidity of the kitchen environment, storing and heating domestic water, and keeping food warm. It features low power consumption, high efficiency, and improved utilization of kitchen space, effectively solving the problems of traditional integrated stoves such as limited functionality, high energy consumption, excessively high kitchen temperatures, and poor user experience.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its problem is: An integrated stove with air conditioning and hot water functions includes an integrated stove with an internal air duct. The air duct includes a main fan and an air inlet pipe connected in sequence. The integrated stove also includes a compressor, an evaporator, a condenser, a water tank, a water pump, a thermostatic chamber, and a four-way reversing valve. A first thermostatic pipe is installed in the thermostatic chamber, and a high-pressure pipe is installed in the water tank. The high-pressure pipe is connected in series with the compressor through a first pipe. The water pump supplies water to the water tank. The first port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the high-pressure pipe. The second port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the condenser through a third pipe. The third port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the evaporator through a fourth pipe. Therefore, the fourth port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the first thermostatic pipe through a fifth pipe. The condenser is connected to the evaporator through a sixth pipe. The evaporator is connected to the compressor through a seventh pipe. The condenser is connected to the compressor through an eighth pipe. The first thermostatic pipe is connected to the compressor through a ninth pipe.

[0006] By adopting the above solution, the integrated stove effectively combines air conditioning cooling, heating, constant temperature chamber temperature control, hot water, and dehumidification functions. It can improve the temperature and humidity of the kitchen environment, store and heat domestic water, and keep food warm. It has low power consumption, high efficiency, and improves the utilization efficiency of kitchen space. It effectively solves the problems of traditional integrated stoves, such as single function, high energy consumption, excessively high kitchen temperature, and poor user experience. By connecting the second, third, or fourth port of the four-way reversing valve to one of the condenser, evaporator, or first constant temperature tube at any given time, cooling, heating, or lowering the constant temperature chamber temperature can be achieved.

[0007] Furthermore, a second thermostatic tube is also installed inside the thermostatic chamber. The compressor is connected to the second thermostatic tube through a tenth pipe, and the second thermostatic tube is connected to the high-pressure pipe through an eleventh pipe.

[0008] By adopting the above scheme, the thermostatic chamber can be kept at a constant temperature through the design of the thermostatic tube.

[0009] Furthermore, the seventh, eighth, and ninth pipes partially overlap, and a gas-liquid separator is installed at the overlap point.

[0010] By adopting the above solution, the gas-liquid separator prevents liquid from slugging into the compressor, thus ensuring the normal operation of the compressor.

[0011] Furthermore, a first solenoid valve is installed on the fifth pipe, a second check valve is installed on the ninth pipe, a second solenoid valve is installed on the tenth pipe, and a first check valve is installed on the eleventh pipe.

[0012] By adopting the above scheme, the flow rate of refrigerant can be controlled by the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve, thereby controlling the cooling effect. The design of the first one-way valve and the second one-way valve prevents refrigerant backflow, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the system.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a drying filter, which is installed on a sixth pipe between the condenser and the evaporator.

[0014] By adopting the above solution, the dryer filter can remove impurities from the pipes, such as metal shavings, various oxides, and dust, preventing blockages and clogging of components.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a throttling device installed on a sixth pipe between the evaporator and the dryer filter.

[0016] By adopting the above scheme, the pressure is changed by setting a throttling device, which can achieve the effects of throttling and reducing pressure.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a water collection box with an open top, the water collection box being used to receive and contain condensate generated from the evaporator and condenser.

[0018] By adopting the above solution, the condensate produced by the evaporator and condenser can be collected, preventing water from dripping onto the ground and reducing noise during operation.

[0019] Furthermore, the integrated stove includes an integrated stove body and an integrated stove head. The integrated stove head is located on one side of the top of the integrated stove body. The compressor, condenser, water tank, water pump, and constant temperature chamber are all installed inside the integrated stove body, and the evaporator is installed inside the integrated stove head.

[0020] By adopting the above solution, this design achieves integrated design, reasonable spatial layout, and improved space utilization.

[0021] Furthermore, a fan is also installed inside the integrated stove head.

[0022] By adopting the above solution, the fan can blow out cold air to lower the ambient temperature and blow out hot air to raise the ambient temperature, thus achieving the cooling and heating effects in the kitchen.

[0023] Furthermore, the throttling device is a throttling orifice plate.

[0024] By adopting the above scheme, the orifice plate has a better throttling effect.

[0025] In summary, the integrated stove with air conditioning and hot water functions provided by the present invention has the following technical effects: 1. By integrating the integrated stove with the functions of air conditioning cooling, heating, constant temperature chamber temperature control, and hot water, the space utilization rate is improved, effectively solving the problems of traditional integrated stoves having single functions and occupying a large area.

[0032] See Figures 1-6This invention discloses an integrated stove 1 with air conditioning and hot water functions: The integrated stove 1 includes an integrated stove body 11 and an integrated stove head 12. The integrated stove head 12 is located on one side of the top of the integrated stove body 11. An air duct is provided inside the integrated stove 1, including a main fan 2 and an air inlet pipe 3 connected in sequence. The integrated stove body 11 contains a compressor 4, a condenser 6, a water tank 7, a water pump 71 for supplying water to the water tank 7, a four-way reversing valve 9, and a constant temperature chamber 8. The integrated stove head 12 contains a fan 108 and an evaporator 5. A high-pressure pipe 72 is installed inside the water tank 7. The integrated stove 1 effectively integrates air conditioning (cooling), heating, constant temperature chamber 8 temperature control, hot water, and dehumidification functions, improving the temperature and humidity of the kitchen environment, storing and heating domestic water, and keeping food warm. It has low power consumption, high efficiency, and improves the utilization efficiency of kitchen space, effectively solving the problems of traditional integrated stoves (such as limited functionality, high energy consumption, excessively high kitchen temperature, and poor user experience).

[0033] In this embodiment, the main fan 2, the air inlet 3, the gas inlet (not shown), and the cooktop in the integrated stove 1 are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail.

[0034] In this embodiment, the constant temperature chamber 8 is equipped with a first constant temperature tube 81 and a second constant temperature tube 82. The fourth port of the four-way reversing valve 9 is connected to the first constant temperature tube 81 through a fifth pipe 93. The first constant temperature tube 81 is connected to the compressor 4 through a ninth pipe 811. The compressor 4 is connected to the second constant temperature tube 82 through a tenth pipe 41. The second constant temperature tube 82 is connected to the high pressure pipe 72 through an eleventh pipe 821. A first solenoid valve 101 is installed on the fifth pipe 93 to control the flow rate and achieve a cooling effect. A second one-way valve 104 is installed on the ninth pipe 811 to prevent refrigerant backflow and ensure normal system operation. A second solenoid valve 102 is installed on the tenth pipe 41 to control the flow rate and achieve a cooling effect. A first one-way valve 103 is installed on the eleventh pipe 821 to prevent refrigerant backflow and ensure normal system operation.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first port of the four-way reversing valve 9 is connected to the high-pressure pipe 72, the second port of the four-way reversing valve 9 is connected to the condenser 6 through the third pipe 91, and the third port of the four-way reversing valve 9 is connected to the evaporator 5 through the fourth pipe 92. By ensuring that the second, third, or fourth port of the four-way reversing valve 9 is connected to one of the condenser 6, the evaporator 5, or the first thermostatic pipe 81 at any given time, the effects of cooling, heating, or lowering the temperature of the thermostatic chamber 8 can be achieved.

[0036] In this embodiment, the high-pressure pipe 72 is connected in series with the compressor 4 through the first pipe 721, the condenser 6 is connected to the evaporator 5 through the sixth pipe 61, the evaporator 5 is connected to the compressor 4 through the seventh pipe 51, and the condenser 6 is connected to the compressor 4 through the eighth pipe 62. The integrated stove 1 effectively integrates air conditioning cooling, heating, temperature control of the constant temperature chamber 8, hot water, and dehumidification functions, improving the temperature and humidity of the kitchen environment, storing and heating domestic water, and keeping food warm. It has low power consumption, high efficiency, and improves the utilization efficiency of kitchen space, effectively solving the problems of traditional integrated stoves 1 such as limited functionality, high energy consumption, excessively high kitchen temperature, and poor user experience.

[0037] In this embodiment, the seventh pipe 51, the eighth pipe 62, and the ninth pipe 811 partially overlap, and a gas-liquid separator 10 is installed at the overlap point. The gas-liquid separator 10 prevents liquid from slugging into the compressor 4, ensuring the normal operation of the compressor 4. Moreover, the overlap saves construction costs. The fourth pipe 92 and the seventh pipe 51 also partially overlap, saving costs.

[0038] In this embodiment, the compressor 4 is provided with refrigerant, wherein the refrigerant includes, but is not limited to, R600a, R290 or R32.

[0039] To prevent clogging by debris, a dryer filter 105 can be installed, which is mounted on the sixth pipe 61 between the condenser 6 and the evaporator 5. To throttle and reduce pressure, a throttling device 106 can be installed, which is mounted on the sixth pipe 61 between the evaporator 5 and the dryer filter 105. In this embodiment, the throttling device 106 is a throttling orifice plate, which has a better throttling effect.

[0040] In this embodiment, a water collection box 107 is also included. The top of the water collection box 107 is open, and the water collection box 107 is disposed at the inner bottom of the integrated stove body 11. The water collection box 107 is used to receive and contain the condensate generated from the evaporator 5 and the condenser 6. Collecting the condensate generated from the evaporator 5 and the condenser 6 prevents water from dripping onto the ground and can reduce noise during operation.

[0041] In summary, the integrated stove 1 with air conditioning and hot water functions provided by the present invention has the following technical effects: 1. By integrating the functions of air conditioning (cooling and heating), constant temperature chamber (temperature control), and hot water into the integrated stove 1, the space utilization rate is improved, effectively solving the problem of the traditional integrated stove 1 having a single function and occupying a large area.

[0042] See Figure 1The working principle and steps of the refrigeration mode of the present invention are as follows: During operation, the compressor 4 starts, and the refrigerant of the compressor 4 is transformed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas by the compressor 4. It enters the water tank 7 through the high-pressure pipe 72 to heat the water in the water tank 7. Then, it enters the condenser 6 through the four-way valve and is condensed into a medium-temperature and medium-pressure liquid. The liquid is sent to the dryer filter 105 and then enters the evaporator 5 through the throttling device 106. The refrigerant in the evaporator 5 absorbs heat and evaporates into low-pressure steam. The low-pressure steam passes through the seventh pipe 51 and then through the gas-liquid separator 10 back to the compressor 4. After absorbing heat, the fan 108 starts to run and blows cold air out of the air outlet of the fan 108 to lower the ambient temperature. The humid air in the kitchen reaches the evaporator 5 through the fan 108. The water vapor in the humid air is liquefied into water droplets and discharged after being cooled by the evaporator 5. The dry air is heated to a high temperature by the high-temperature condenser 6 and sent out of the room. The cycle repeats to remove the moisture in the room.

[0043] See Figure 2 The working principle and steps of the heating mode of the present invention are as follows: During operation, the compressor 4 starts, and the refrigerant in the compressor 4 is transformed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas by the compressor 4. It enters the water tank 7 through the high-pressure pipe 72 to heat the water in the water tank 7. After passing through the four-way valve, it enters the evaporator 5 and condenses into a medium-temperature and medium-pressure liquid. Then, it enters the condenser 6 through the throttling device 106 and the dryer filter 105. The refrigerant absorbs heat and evaporates into low-pressure steam. It returns to the compressor 4 after passing through the gas-liquid separator 10. After the evaporator 5 releases heat, the fan 108 runs and blows hot air out of the air outlet of the fan 108 to increase the ambient temperature. The humid air in the room reaches the evaporator 5 through the fan 108. The water vapor in the humid air is liquefied into water droplets after passing through the low-temperature evaporator 5 and discharged. The dry air, after being cooled by the evaporator 5, is heated to a high temperature by the high-temperature condenser 6 and sent into the room. The cycle repeats to remove the moisture in the room.

[0044] See Figure 3 The working principle and steps of the present invention for increasing the temperature of the constant temperature chamber 8 are as follows: When working, the compressor 4 starts, and the refrigerant is transformed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas by the compressor 4. The second solenoid valve 102 is opened and enters the second constant temperature tube 82. The gas releases heat to increase the temperature of the constant temperature chamber 8. After passing through the first one-way valve 103, it returns to the high-pressure tube 72 to achieve the heating effect.

[0045] See Figure 4 The working principle and steps of the present invention for reducing the temperature of the constant temperature chamber 8 are as follows: When in use, the first solenoid valve 101 is opened, and the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas enters the first constant temperature tube 81 through the four-way reversing valve 9. It condenses and absorbs heat in the constant temperature chamber 8, thereby reducing the internal temperature of the constant temperature chamber 8. The refrigerant flows through the second one-way valve 104, passes through the gas-liquid separator 10, and returns to the compressor 4, thus completing the cooling effect.
