Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, and in particular to a refrigeration component and its control method, and a refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, more and more people are paying attention to the overall aesthetics of home decoration. Built-in refrigerators, which can be placed in relatively deep and narrow spaces, further enhance the overall look of the kitchen, and are therefore gradually replacing traditional standalone refrigerators. Zero-recessed refrigerators are a type of built-in refrigerator, characterized by their top and sides being flush against the interior walls, allowing for heat dissipation only through the bottom space.

[0003] Furthermore, power outages can cause food stored in the refrigerator to spoil, resulting in significant resource waste. In addition, power outages vary from region to region, making it difficult to guarantee that the refrigerator will continue cooling for an extended period after a power outage. To address this, existing technology offers a novel energy-storage refrigerator that incorporates an energy-storage battery inside the refrigerator (particularly at the back). When a power outage occurs or during energy-saving periods based on electricity price fluctuations, the energy-storage battery can provide power to the refrigerator to ensure normal cooling.

[0004] However, energy storage batteries are affected by temperature during operation. When the temperature of the energy storage battery is too high, there is a problem of overheating, failure to work, or even combustion and explosion. In particular, when the refrigerator is placed in a zero-embedded manner, the energy storage battery cannot dissipate heat reliably, which seriously affects the working life and reliability of the energy storage battery and the refrigerator.

Furthermore, the internal components of the compressor cavity generate heat during operation.

Moreover, connecting the energy storage cavity and the compressor cavity only requires the first gas flow channel to connect to the outside of the cabinet to introduce air into the energy storage cavity. The space occupied by the energy storage cavity is negligible compared to the space occupied by the energy storage battery in the prior art. That is, there is no need to set up separate heat dissipation and heating channels for the energy storage cavity, which can effectively reduce the space occupied by the energy storage structure in the refrigerator, increase the refrigerator's volume, and thus improve the user experience.

[0085] An energy storage refrigerator refers to a refrigerator with an energy storage battery installed inside (especially at the back). When a power outage occurs or energy-saving measures are implemented based on peak and off-peak electricity prices, the energy storage battery can supply power to ensure normal cooling. However, the energy storage battery is affected by temperature during operation. When the temperature of the energy storage battery is too high, it may overheat, malfunction, or even burn and explode. This is especially true when the refrigerator is installed in a recessed configuration, where the energy storage battery cannot reliably dissipate heat, severely affecting the lifespan and reliability of both the battery and the refrigerator. Current technologies, to address the heat dissipation issue of the energy storage battery, typically place it on the side wall of the refrigerator, allowing heat dissipation through the front of the refrigerator. For example, placing the battery at the top of the refrigerator with ventilation holes on the top panel reduces the internal volume of the refrigerator, relying solely on natural heat transfer for cooling. This method is inefficient and negatively impacts user experience due to the increased refrigerator space. Therefore, this application provides a method... Figures 1 to 7 The refrigeration assembly shown includes: a housing, within which an energy storage cavity 11 and a compressor cavity 12 are formed; an energy storage structure disposed within the energy storage cavity 11; a first airflow channel is formed within the energy storage cavity 11, through which gas flows via the energy storage structure; a first end 111 of the first airflow channel is connected to the compressor cavity 12, and a second end 112 is connected to the outside of the housing. By connecting the energy storage cavity 11 containing the energy storage structure to the compressor cavity 12, when the ambient temperature (temperature within the energy storage cavity 11) is too high to ensure normal operation of the energy storage structure, heat is transferred from the energy storage cavity 11 to the compressor cavity 12 and discharged through the compressor cavity 12, thus achieving heat dissipation within the energy storage cavity 11. Furthermore, the internal components of the compressor cavity 12 generate heat during operation. When the ambient temperature (temperature inside the energy storage cavity 11) is too low to ensure the normal operation of the energy storage structure, the heat from the compressor cavity 12 can be transferred to the energy storage cavity 11, thereby increasing the temperature inside the energy storage cavity 11 and heating the energy storage structure to ensure normal operation. Moreover, connecting the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 only requires the first gas flow channel to connect with the outside of the cabinet to introduce air into the energy storage cavity 11. The space occupied by the energy storage cavity 11 is negligible compared to the space occupied by the energy storage battery in the prior art. That is, there is no need to set up a separate heat dissipation channel and heating channel for the energy storage cavity 11, which can effectively reduce the space occupied by the energy storage structure in the refrigerator, increase the refrigerator's volume, and thus improve the user experience.

[0086] The compressor cavity 12 contains a second airflow channel, both ends of which are connected to the outside of the refrigerator body. The first end 111 of the first airflow channel is connected to the second airflow channel. During normal refrigerator operation, the second airflow channel draws gas from the outside of the refrigerator and uses this gas to dissipate heat from the compressor and other components inside the compressor cavity 12. The gas is then discharged from the refrigerator through the other end of the second airflow channel, ensuring normal refrigerator operation. When the energy storage structure requires heat dissipation, the energy storage cavity 11 is connected to the compressor cavity 12. The gas in the second airflow channel creates a negative pressure at the first end 111 of the first airflow channel, causing the second end 112 of the first airflow channel to draw air from the outside of the refrigerator. This air flows through the energy storage structure, dissipating heat and ensuring reliable operation of the energy storage structure. Furthermore, when the temperature inside the energy storage chamber 11 is too low, heat exists inside the compressor chamber 12. The second airflow channel can generate positive pressure at the first end 111 of the first airflow channel, thereby sending the heated gas from the compressor chamber 12 into the energy storage chamber 11, thus increasing the temperature of the energy storage structure and ensuring its reliable operation. Optionally, the refrigeration component also includes a first air valve, which is located at the first end 111. The first air valve controls whether the energy storage chamber 11 is connected to the compressor chamber 12.

[0087] Specifically, the compressor cavity 12 is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 121 and a heat dissipation outlet 122. The heat dissipation inlet 121, the compressor cavity 12, and the heat dissipation outlet 122 are sequentially connected to form the second airflow channel. When the refrigerator is working normally, the air outside the refrigerator enters the compressor cavity 12 through the heat dissipation inlet 121 to dissipate heat from the components inside the compressor cavity 12, and finally exits through the heat dissipation outlet 122, thus completing the heat dissipation of the components inside the compressor cavity 12. When the energy storage cavity 11 is connected to the compressor cavity 12, the flow of gas from the energy storage cavity 11 to the compressor cavity 12 or vice versa can be selected according to the temperature requirements of the energy storage structure. In particular, in order to ensure the heat dissipation of the components inside the compressor cavity 12, the first end 111 is connected to the compressor cavity 12 near the heat dissipation outlet 122. When the energy storage structure needs to dissipate heat, the gas in the energy storage cavity 11 can first dissipate heat from the energy storage structure, and then flow through the components inside the compressor cavity 12 to dissipate heat, thereby ensuring reliable heat dissipation of the components inside the compressor cavity 12. Simultaneously, when the energy storage structure requires heating, the gas in the compressor chamber 12 first absorbs heat at the components, and then flows into the energy storage chamber 11 through the first end 111 for heating, ensuring the reliability of heating the energy storage structure. Since the positions of the components within the compressor chamber 12 are relatively fixed, to ensure that the second airflow channel can generate negative or positive pressure at the first end 111, the refrigeration assembly also includes a second air valve and a third air valve. The second air valve is located at the heat dissipation inlet 121, and the third air valve is located at the heat dissipation outlet 122. The second air valve controls whether the heat dissipation inlet 121 is connected to the outside of the housing. When the second air valve is closed, the heat dissipation inlet 121 is closed, allowing gas in the second airflow channel to flow in or out only through the heat dissipation outlet 122. Similarly, when the third air valve is closed, the heat dissipation outlet 122 is closed, allowing gas in the second airflow channel to flow in or out only through the heat dissipation inlet 121. Especially when heat dissipation of the energy storage structure is required, in order to generate negative pressure at the first end 111 and force the gas outside the box to flow into the first airflow channel, the first end 111 forms the air inlet of the second airflow channel. If the heat dissipation outlet 122 is opened, the gas in the second airflow channel will flow out directly through the heat dissipation outlet 122. The negative pressure generated at the first end 111 is small, resulting in low heat dissipation efficiency of the energy storage structure. At this time, the third air valve can be used to close the heat dissipation outlet 122, and at the same time, the airflow in the second airflow channel will flow in the opposite direction to the normal heat dissipation. At this time, the gas flowing into the second airflow channel from the first airflow channel can flow through the components in the compressor cavity 12, which can meet the heat dissipation requirements of the energy storage structure and also ensure the heat dissipation requirements of the components in the compressor cavity 12, thereby ensuring the reliable operation of the refrigeration components.Specifically, the refrigeration assembly also includes a compressor 2, which is disposed in the compressor chamber 12 and located on the side of the first end 111 away from the heat dissipation outlet 122. The compressor 2 compresses the refrigerant when the refrigeration assembly is refrigerating. When the compressor 2 is working, the compressor 2 will generate heat that needs to be dissipated. At this time, the gas in the second airflow channel flows through the compressor 2 to dissipate heat from the compressor 2.

[0088] To ensure airflow within the second airflow channel, the refrigeration assembly also includes a fan 3, which is located within the compressor chamber 12 and situated on the side of the compressor 2 furthest from the heat dissipation outlet 122. During normal operation of the refrigeration assembly, the fan 3 rotates, driving the gas flow within the second airflow channel. This creates a negative pressure at the heat dissipation inlet 121, drawing in air from outside the housing and delivering it to the compressor 2 for heat dissipation before expelling it through the heat dissipation outlet 122. When dissipating heat from the energy storage structure, the fan 3 can remain operational, with the heat dissipation outlet 122 open. The second airflow channel only generates a small negative pressure at its first end 111, resulting in a small amount of gas being drawn in from the first airflow channel, sufficient for inefficient heat dissipation of the energy storage structure. Alternatively, the fan 3 can be reversed, using the heat dissipation inlet 121 as the gas outlet and closing the heat dissipation outlet 122, ensuring that the compressor chamber 12 can only receive air through the first airflow channel, guaranteeing reliable heat dissipation for the energy storage structure.

[0089] The refrigeration component has a cooling mode and a heating mode for the energy storage structure:

[0090] When the refrigeration component is in the cooling mode of the energy storage structure, the first air valve and the second air valve are in a connected state, the third air valve is in a closed state, and the fan 3 generates negative pressure at the first end 111. At this time, the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected through the first air valve, and the fan 3 reverses. Since the third air valve is in a closed state, the heat dissipation outlet 122 is closed. Under the negative pressure generated by the fan 3, the first airflow channel draws air from the outside of the box and makes the air pass through the energy storage structure for heat dissipation. Then, it flows into the second airflow channel through the first end 111 and dissipates heat from the compressor 2 and condenser in the compressor chamber 12. Finally, it flows out of the compressor chamber 12 and the box through the heat dissipation inlet 121, thereby achieving the purpose of heat dissipation of the energy storage structure.

[0091] When the refrigeration component is in the heating mode of the energy storage structure, the first air valve and the second air valve are in a connected state, the third air valve is in a closed state, and the fan 3 generates positive pressure at the first end 111. At this time, the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected through the first air valve, and the fan 3 rotates in the forward direction, so that the air outside the box can be drawn in from the heat dissipation inlet 121, and after being cooled by the compressor 2 and the condenser, it enters the first airflow channel through the first end 111, thereby bringing the heat of the compressor 2 and the condenser into the energy storage structure. This part of the heat is used to heat the energy storage structure, so as to achieve the purpose of heating the energy storage structure.

[0092] To further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the energy storage structure, the cooling component also includes a cooling mechanism disposed within the energy storage cavity 11. The cooling mechanism cools the energy storage cavity 11, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the energy storage structure. Since air exists within the energy storage cavity 11, and water vapor in the air can affect the normal operation of the energy storage structure, such as causing short circuits, the cooling mechanism also reduces the humidity within the energy storage cavity 11, further ensuring the reliability of the energy storage structure. The cooling component also includes a water-absorbing structure disposed within the energy storage cavity 11. After condensation occurs in the energy storage cavity 11 due to the cooling mechanism, the water-absorbing structure absorbs the condensate, preventing it from affecting the energy storage structure. The condensate stored in the water-absorbing structure can be dissipated through the heat generated by the energy storage structure, or it can be diverted to other parts of the structure for further dissipation using a drainage structure. For example, the water-absorbing structure is water-absorbing cotton, which is located on the side wall where the energy storage structure is installed. When condensation occurs on the energy storage structure, it can be immediately absorbed by the water-absorbing cotton, thereby ensuring the reliability of the energy storage structure.

[0093] Since the energy storage structure includes multiple energy storage units, in order to achieve heat dissipation or heating for all energy storage units, the cooling component also includes a baffle plate 4. The baffle plate 4 is disposed within the first airflow channel and can divide the first airflow channel into a baffle channel. All energy storage units are arranged along the baffle channel, so that the gas flowing in the first airflow channel can pass through all energy storage units, ensuring that each energy storage unit can dissipate heat or heat with the gas in the first airflow channel, thus fully ensuring the operational reliability of the energy storage structure. Preferably, the baffle plate 4 is rotatably disposed within the energy storage cavity 11, and the baffle plate 4 has a first state in which it is within the first airflow channel to form the baffle channel and a second state in which it is removed from the first airflow channel. When the temperature of the energy storage structure is not very high, the baffle 4 can be switched to the second state. At this time, although gas will flow through the energy storage structure, some energy storage units will not experience airflow. However, the gas in the first airflow channel is sufficient to lower or raise the temperature inside the energy storage cavity 11 to a preset value. Energy storage units without airflow can still receive heat or cooling as the temperature inside the energy storage cavity 11 decreases or increases. When the temperature of the energy storage structure is high, the baffle 4 is switched to the first state to form a baffle channel. This baffle channel restricts gas flow through all energy storage units, ensuring heat dissipation and heating for each unit and meeting the temperature requirements of the energy storage structure.

[0094] like Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the refrigeration component includes an inverted U-shaped cover plate. The inverted U-shaped cover plate and the outer wall of the back panel 13 of the refrigerator together form an energy storage cavity 11. At this time, the shape of the energy storage cavity 11 is also inverted U-shaped, and the two ends of the inverted U-shape form the first end 111 and the second end 112 of the first airflow channel, respectively. The middle part of the inverted U-shape is used to install the energy storage structure. The baffle 4 is set at the middle part of the inverted U-shape, and the edge of the baffle 4 is rotatably set on the back panel 13 of the refrigerator. Figure 6 As can be seen, the baffle plate 4 divides the first airflow channel into a baffle channel with multiple up-and-down baffles from the first end 111 to the second end 112, and the energy storage units are distributed along the baffle channel.

[0095] Preferably, the energy storage unit is a battery. A shelf 5 is provided inside the energy storage cavity 11, the energy storage unit is placed on the shelf 5, and the shelf 5 is provided with a clearance part for the rotation of the baffle 4.

[0096] The compressor chamber 12 is located below the energy storage chamber 11. The compressor chamber 12 is located inside the housing. An opening is provided on the back plate 13 of the housing that constitutes the compressor chamber 12, and the first end 111 is provided at the opening.

[0097] The cooling mechanism is located at the first end 111, ensuring that the gas entering at the first end 111 must pass through the cooling mechanism before flowing to the energy storage structure, thus guaranteeing the cooling mechanism's effectiveness in heat dissipation and dehumidification of the energy storage structure. Preferably, the cooling mechanism is a semiconductor cooling chip.

[0098] Since the compressor chamber 12 is located at the bottom of the housing, and a connecting ventilation duct is provided at the bottom of the housing to communicate with the front panel of the housing, an additional connecting ventilation duct can also be provided at the bottom of the housing to communicate with the second end 112, thereby achieving the purpose of the energy storage chamber 11 to receive air from the outside of the housing and to exhaust air from the outside of the housing.

[0099] A method for controlling a cooling component, comprising:

[0100] Obtain the actual temperature value T inside the energy storage cavity 11;

[0101] Based on the comparison between the actual temperature value and the preset temperature value, the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 is controlled.

[0102] Specifically, the refrigeration component has an energy storage structure cooling mode. After controlling whether the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected based on the comparison result of the actual temperature value and the preset value, the following steps are also included:

[0103] If the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the energy storage chamber 11 is connected to the compressor chamber 12. At this time, the second airflow channel in the compressor chamber 12 can carry out the gas from the first airflow channel, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the energy storage structure.

[0104] Furthermore, the refrigeration assembly also includes a refrigeration mechanism disposed within the energy storage chamber 11. After controlling the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 if the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the assembly further includes:

[0105] If the actual temperature value T is greater than the second preset temperature T1, then the refrigeration mechanism is controlled to start working;

[0106] The second preset temperature T1 is greater than the first preset temperature T0, and the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration mechanism is used to further improve the heat dissipation effect on the energy storage structure.

[0107] Furthermore, the baffle 4 is rotatably disposed within the energy storage cavity 11. The baffle 4 has a first state in which it is within the first airflow channel to form a baffle channel and a second state in which it is removed from the first airflow channel. After controlling the energy storage cavity 11 to connect with the compressor cavity 12 if the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the system further includes:

[0108] If the actual temperature value T is greater than the second preset temperature T1, then the baffle plate 4 is controlled to switch to the first state;

[0109] The second preset temperature T1 is greater than the first preset temperature T0. The baffle plate 4 forces the gas in the first airflow channel to pass through all the energy storage units, thereby ensuring the reliable heat dissipation of the energy storage structure.

[0110] The refrigeration assembly further includes a fan 3, which is disposed within the compressor cavity 12. After controlling whether the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 are connected based on the comparison result between the actual temperature value and the preset value, the assembly further includes:

[0111] If the actual temperature T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the fan 3 is controlled to generate negative pressure at the first end 111. When the fan 3 is dissipating heat normally in the compressor cavity 12, the fan 3 rotates forward. At this time, the first end 111 is under positive pressure. Although it can carry out some gas in the energy storage cavity 11 at the first end 111, the heat dissipation efficiency of the energy storage cavity 11 is not high. Therefore, the fan 3 is reversed, thereby forcing the gas to flow out from the first airflow channel, thereby increasing the gas flow speed in the first airflow channel and improving the heat dissipation effect on the energy storage structure.

[0112] Specifically, the refrigeration component further includes a first air valve, which is located at the first end 111. In the step of controlling the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 if the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the component further includes:

[0113] Control the first air valve to switch to the connected state.

[0114] The compressor cavity 12 is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 121 and a heat dissipation outlet 122. The heat dissipation inlet 121, the compressor cavity 12, and the heat dissipation outlet 122 are sequentially connected to form the second airflow channel. The first end 111 is connected to the compressor cavity 12 near the heat dissipation outlet 122. The refrigeration assembly also includes a second air valve and a third air valve. The second air valve is located at the heat dissipation inlet 121, and the third air valve is located at the heat dissipation outlet 122. After controlling the connection between the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 if the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the assembly further includes:

[0115] The second air valve is switched to the connected state, and the third air valve is switched to the closed state. At this time, the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected through the first air valve. The fan 3 reverses. Since the third air valve is in the closed state, the heat dissipation outlet 122 is closed. The first airflow channel draws air from the outside of the box under the negative pressure generated by the fan 3 and makes the air dissipate heat through the energy storage structure. Then, it flows into the second airflow channel through the first end 111 and dissipates heat from the compressor 2 and condenser in the compressor chamber 12. Finally, it flows out of the compressor chamber 12 and the box through the heat dissipation inlet 121, thereby achieving the purpose of heat dissipation of the energy storage structure.

[0116] In one implementation, if the actual temperature value T is greater than the first preset temperature T0, the first air valve is controlled to switch to the connected state, the second air valve is controlled to switch to the connected state, the third air valve is controlled to switch to the closed state, and the fan 3 is controlled to reverse.

[0117] If the actual temperature T is greater than the second preset temperature T1, control the first air valve to switch to the connected state, control the second air valve to switch to the connected state, control the third air valve to switch to the closed state, control the fan 3 to reverse, and also control the refrigeration mechanism to start working, while controlling the baffle 4 to switch to the first state to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the energy storage structure.

[0118] The refrigeration component has an energy storage structure heating mode. After controlling whether the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 are connected based on the comparison result of the actual temperature value and the preset value, the following steps are also included:

[0119] If the actual temperature T is less than the third preset temperature t0, then the energy storage chamber 11 is connected to the compressor chamber 12. The heat from the compressor chamber 12 is then transferred into the energy storage chamber 11 to heat the energy storage structure.

[0120] The baffle plate 4 is rotatably disposed within the energy storage cavity 11. The baffle plate 4 has a first state in which it is within the first airflow channel to form a baffle channel and a second state in which it is removed from the first airflow channel. After controlling the connection between the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 if the actual temperature value T is less than the third preset temperature t0, the following further applies:

[0121] If the actual temperature value T is less than the fourth preset temperature t1, then the baffle plate 4 is controlled to switch to the first state;

[0122] The fourth preset temperature t1 is lower than the third preset temperature t0, which forces the hot air in the compressor cavity 12 to pass through all energy storage units, thereby improving the heating reliability of the energy storage structure.

[0123] The refrigeration assembly further includes a fan 3, which is disposed within the compressor cavity 12. After controlling whether the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 are connected based on the comparison result between the actual temperature value and the preset value, the assembly further includes:

[0124] If the actual temperature T is less than the third preset temperature t0, the fan 3 is controlled to generate positive pressure at the first end 111. The positive pressure generated by the fan 3 is used to force the second airflow channel into the first airflow channel through the first end 111, thereby achieving heating of the energy storage structure.

[0125] The refrigeration assembly further includes a first air valve, which is located at the first end 111. In the step of controlling the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 if the actual temperature value T is less than a third preset temperature t0, the assembly further includes:

[0126] Control the first air valve to switch to the connected state.

[0127] The compressor cavity 12 is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 121 and a heat dissipation outlet 122. The heat dissipation inlet 121, the compressor cavity 12, and the heat dissipation outlet 122 are sequentially connected to form the second airflow channel. The first end 111 is connected to the compressor cavity 12 near the heat dissipation outlet 122. The refrigeration assembly also includes a second air valve and a third air valve. The second air valve is located at the heat dissipation inlet 121, and the third air valve is located at the heat dissipation outlet 122. After controlling the connection between the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 if the actual temperature value T is less than the third preset temperature t0, the assembly further includes:

[0128] The second air valve is switched to the open state, and the third air valve is switched to the closed state. At this time, the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected through the first air valve, and the fan 3 rotates in the forward direction, so that the air outside the box can be drawn in from the heat dissipation inlet 121, and after being dissipated by the compressor 2 and the condenser, it enters the first airflow channel through the first end 111, thereby bringing the heat of the compressor 2 and the condenser to the energy storage structure. This heat is used to heat the energy storage structure, thereby achieving the purpose of heating the energy storage structure.

[0129] A method for controlling the above-mentioned refrigeration component includes:

[0130] Obtain the actual humidity value h inside the energy storage cavity 11;

[0131] The actual humidity value h is compared with the preset humidity value to control whether the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 are connected.

[0132] After controlling whether the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 are connected based on the comparison result of the actual temperature value and the preset value, the method further includes:

[0133] If the actual humidity value h is greater than the first preset humidity h0, it indicates that dehumidification is required in the energy storage cavity 11. Then, the energy storage cavity 11 is connected to the compressor cavity 12, so that the fan 3 in the compressor cavity 12 can drive the gas in the first airflow channel to flow and finally discharge it from the box. In this process, the air in the energy storage cavity 11 is replaced, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the humidity of the gas in the energy storage cavity 11.

[0134] The refrigeration assembly further includes a refrigeration mechanism disposed within the energy storage chamber 11. The method of controlling the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 if the actual humidity value h is greater than a first preset humidity h0 further includes:

[0135] If the actual humidity value h is greater than the second preset humidity h1, then the refrigeration mechanism is controlled to start working;

[0136] The second preset humidity h1 is greater than the first preset humidity h0. The gas in the energy storage chamber 11 is cooled by a refrigeration mechanism. As the temperature of the gas decreases, the moisture in the gas will condense into water droplets, which will then be collected and discharged from the energy storage chamber 11. At the same time, the gas in the first airflow channel flows, which will carry the gas cooled by the refrigeration mechanism to the energy storage structure, thereby ensuring the dehumidification effect on the energy storage structure.

[0137] The baffle plate 4 is rotatably disposed within the energy storage cavity 11. The baffle plate 4 has a first state in which it is within the first airflow channel to form a baffle channel and a second state in which it is removed from the first airflow channel. After controlling the connection between the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 if the actual humidity value h is greater than the first preset humidity h0, the system further includes:

[0138] If the actual humidity value h is greater than the second preset humidity h1, then the baffle plate 4 is controlled to switch to the first state;

[0139] The second preset humidity h1 is greater than the first preset humidity h0. This forces the gas in the first airflow channel to exchange heat with the refrigeration mechanism before passing through all energy storage units, thereby ensuring that the air humidity at any energy storage unit will not affect the reliability of the energy storage unit, and thus ensuring the reliability of the energy storage structure.

[0140] The refrigeration assembly further includes a fan 3, which is disposed within the compressor cavity 12. After controlling whether the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 are connected based on the comparison result between the actual temperature value and the preset value, the assembly further includes:

[0141] If the actual humidity value h is greater than the first preset humidity h0, the fan 3 is controlled to generate positive pressure at the first end 111, forcing the gas in the compressor cavity 12 to enter the first airflow channel, so that the gas cooled by the refrigeration mechanism can flow through the energy storage structure, thereby ensuring the dehumidification effect on the energy storage cavity 11.

[0142] The refrigeration assembly further includes a first air valve, which is disposed at the first end 111. In the step of controlling the connection between the energy storage chamber 11 and the compressor chamber 12 if the actual humidity value h is greater than a first preset humidity h0, the assembly further includes:

[0143] Control the first air valve to switch to the connected state.

[0144] The compressor cavity 12 is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 121 and a heat dissipation outlet 122.

The first end 111 is connected to the compressor cavity 12 near the heat dissipation outlet 122. The refrigeration component also includes a second air valve and a third air valve. The second air valve is located at the heat dissipation inlet 121, and the third air valve is located at the heat dissipation outlet 122. After controlling the connection between the energy storage cavity 11 and the compressor cavity 12 if the actual humidity value h is greater than the first preset humidity h0, the component further includes:
