Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to dehumidifiers, and more particularly to a dehumidifier equipped with an auxiliary dehydration mechanism. [Background Technology]
[0002] The dehumidifier has an internal exhaust fan that dehumidifies the air by passing it through the cold and hot ends of a semiconductor. The air entering the cold end of the semiconductor is condensed and separated into water vapor, and the cooled air is then heated and discharged through the hot end of the semiconductor. To improve the dehumidification effect, filter layers such as absorbent cotton and filter cotton can be installed inside for auxiliary dehumidification. However, the filter layers need to be replaced frequently, and the dehumidifier needs to be stopped when replacing them. In view of the above background technology, a dehumidification structure that can improve the dehumidification effect while maintaining continuous operation needs to be designed.
[0003] Therefore, existing dehumidifiers need further improvement. [Summary of the Invention]
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dehumidifier with an auxiliary dehydration mechanism that can improve the dehumidification effect while maintaining continuous operation.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following solution:
[0006] A dehumidifier with an auxiliary dehydration mechanism includes a dehumidifier body. A cold-end treatment module and a hot-end treatment module are disposed within the dehumidifier body. A connecting valve body is provided between the cold-end treatment module and the hot-end treatment module. The connecting valve body has two L-shaped ventilation holes. A semi-circular rotary valve is provided at the corner of each L-shaped ventilation hole. A semi-cylindrical dehumidifying sliver is provided on the other side of each semi-circular rotary valve. A dehydration structure for the sliver is provided between the semi-circular rotary valve and the L-shaped ventilation holes. The connecting valve body is provided with a reciprocating crank drive mechanism for controlling the alternating reciprocating rotation of the two semi-circular rotary valves.
[0007] Furthermore, the dehumidifier body includes a main unit, an air inlet on the outer shell of the main unit, a cooling cavity connected to the air inlet inside the main unit, a cold end treatment module disposed in the cooling cavity, a water receiving trough below the cooling cavity, a water tank connected below the water receiving trough, a heating cavity on one side of the cooling cavity, a hot end treatment module disposed in the heating cavity, a fan assembly disposed in the heating cavity, and an air outlet connected to the heating cavity on the outer shell of the main unit.
[0008] Furthermore, the semi-circular rotary valve includes a cylindrical cavity disposed at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole, and an arc-shaped rotating component is rotatably disposed within the cylindrical cavity.
[0009] Furthermore, the cylindrical cavity forms a first air inlet and a second air inlet at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole.
[0010] Furthermore, the first air inlet is vertically oriented, while the second air inlet is horizontally oriented;
[0011] The arc-shaped rotating component can simultaneously open or close the first air inlet and the second air inlet.
[0012] Furthermore, the cotton swab dehydration structure includes a squeezing plate disposed on the end face of the cylindrical cavity, the squeezing plate being disposed inside the arc-shaped rotating component, and the arc-shaped rotating component being provided with a connecting structure for connecting the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton swab.
[0013] Furthermore, when the arc-shaped rotating component rotates at an angle, it drives the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip to rotate synchronously through the connecting structure. During the process of the arc-shaped rotating component closing the first air inlet and the second air inlet, the extrusion plate squeezes the rotating semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip, so that the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip completes the dehydration work.
[0014] Furthermore, a drainage pipe is provided below the cylindrical cavity, and the drainage pipe is connected to the water receiving tank.
[0015] Furthermore, the reciprocating crank drive mechanism includes a servo motor mounted on the connecting valve body. The output end of the servo motor is sequentially provided with a first circular connecting plate, a first eccentric shaft, a second circular connecting plate, and a second eccentric shaft. The first eccentric shaft and the second eccentric shaft are respectively located at the upper and lower positions of the second circular connecting plate.
[0016] The two arc-shaped rotating parts are arranged symmetrically on the left and right, and the servo motor is located between the two arc-shaped rotating parts. A swing rod is provided at the inner end of each arc-shaped rotating part. A first connecting rod is hinged between the outer end of one swing rod and the first eccentric shaft, and a second connecting rod is hinged between the outer end of the other swing rod and the second eccentric shaft.
[0017] In summary, the advantages of this invention over the prior art are:
[0018] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing dehumidifiers. Through its structural design, it offers the following advantages: the dehumidifier features two L-shaped ventilation holes, each equipped with a filter layer. These two holes alternately filter moisture from the air; while one is operating, the other dehydrates, improving the dehumidification effect and ensuring continuous operation. When the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying swivel and the semi-circular rotary valve rotate synchronously, the valve seals the L-shaped ventilation holes. Simultaneously, the other semi-cylindrical dehumidifying swivel, in conjunction with the dehydration mechanism, automatically dehydrates, ensuring continuous filtration. Furthermore, the structure is simple and easy to use. [Attached Image Description]

Detailed Implementation Methods
[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Please see Figure 1-9 This invention provides a dehumidifier with an auxiliary dehydration mechanism, comprising a dehumidifier body 1, a cold end treatment module 2 and a hot end treatment module 3 disposed within the dehumidifier body 1, a connecting valve body 4 disposed between the cold end treatment module 2 and the hot end treatment module 3, two L-shaped ventilation holes 5 disposed on the connecting valve body 4, a semi-circular rotary valve 6 disposed at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5, a semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 disposed on the other side of the semi-circular rotary valve 6, a cotton strip dehydration structure 8 disposed between the semi-circular rotary valve 6 and the L-shaped ventilation hole 5, and a reciprocating crank drive mechanism 7 disposed on the connecting valve body 4 for controlling the two semi-circular rotary valves 6 to rotate alternately.
[0031] The dehumidifier body 1 of the present invention includes a main body 101, an air inlet 102 is provided on the outer shell of the main body 101, a cooling cavity 103 connected to the air inlet 102 is provided inside the main body 101, a cold end processing module 2 is provided inside the cooling cavity 103, a water receiving tank 104 is provided below the cooling cavity 103, a water tank 105 is connected below the water receiving tank 104, a heating cavity 106 is provided on one side of the cooling cavity 103, a hot end processing module 3 is provided inside the heating cavity 106, a fan assembly 107 is provided inside the heating cavity 106, and an air outlet 108 connected to the heating cavity 106 is provided on the outer shell of the main body 101.
[0032] Start the fan assembly 107 to send in outside air from the air inlet 102 and after dehumidification, discharge it from the air outlet 108.
[0033] During the process, the air first enters the cold end treatment module 2 for cooling. After cooling, the moisture in the air is released and falls into the water receiving tank 104 before finally entering the water tank 105. The remaining air continues to enter the heating chamber 106, where the hot end treatment module 3 heats the air before it is discharged.
[0034] During the process, a connecting valve body 4 is also provided. The connecting valve body 4 is provided with two L-shaped ventilation holes 5 for alternating ventilation. The semi-circular rotary valve 6 is used to control the corresponding L-shaped ventilation hole 5 to open or close. When one side of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5 is in the open state, the other side is in the closed state.
[0035] The reciprocating crank drive mechanism 7 is used to control the working state of the two semi-circular rotary valves 6, so as to open one side and close the other side.
[0036] The tampon dehydration structure 8 is located between the corners of the L-shaped ventilation holes 5 to absorb excess moisture from the flowing air.
[0037] When the semi-circular rotary valve 6 rotates to close, it will drive the cotton strip dehydration structure 8 to rotate as well. At this time, the cotton strip dehydration structure 8, which was originally connected to the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5, will rotate at an angle and switch to the semi-circular rotary valve 6 being set at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5 to seal the L-shaped ventilation hole 5.
[0038] During the rotation of the tampon dehydration structure 8, it will work together to dehydrate the water inside the tampon dehydration structure 8, squeezing out the water to ensure continuous operation and prevent the tampon dehydration structure 8 from becoming clogged or having poor filtration effect due to excessive water.
[0039] The semi-circular rotary valve 6 of the present invention includes a cylindrical cavity 601 disposed at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5, and an arc-shaped rotating component 602 is rotatably disposed inside the cylindrical cavity 601;
[0040] The arc-shaped rotating component 602 is set at 180°. When the arc-shaped rotating component 602 rotates 180°, it just closes the first air inlet 501 and the second air inlet 502.
[0041] After rotating another 180°, the first air inlet 501 and the second air inlet 502 are opened.
[0042] The cylindrical cavity 601 of the present invention forms a first air inlet 501 and a second air inlet 502 at the corner of the L-shaped ventilation hole 5.
[0043] In this invention, the first air inlet 501 is vertically arranged, and the second air inlet 502 is horizontally arranged;
[0044] The arc-shaped rotating component 602 can simultaneously open or close the first air inlet 501 and the second air inlet 502.
[0045] The cotton swab dehydration structure 8 of the present invention includes a squeezing plate 801 disposed on the end face of the cylindrical cavity 601, the squeezing plate 801 being disposed inside the arc-shaped rotating member 602, and the arc-shaped rotating member 602 being provided with a connecting structure 802 for connecting the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton swab 9.
[0046] The extrusion plate 801 is fixedly installed, and during the rotation of the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9, it will collide with the extrusion plate 801. At this time, the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 is compressed, and the moisture is removed.
[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the arrow indicates the direction of airflow, which will pass through the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 in the middle to filter out excess moisture.
[0048] like Figure 7 As shown, at this time, the arc-shaped rotating component 602 has rotated 180°, which just closes the first air inlet 501 and the second air inlet 502, and makes the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 cooperate with the squeezing plate 801 to squeeze, thus completing the moisture removal.
[0049] When the arc-shaped rotating component 602 rotates at an angle, the connecting structure 802 drives the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 to rotate synchronously. During the process of the arc-shaped rotating component 602 closing the first air inlet 501 and the second air inlet 502, the extrusion plate 801 extrudes the rotating semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9, so that the semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strip 9 completes the dehydration work.
[0050] A drainage pipe 100 is provided below the cylindrical cavity 601 of the present invention, and the drainage pipe 100 is connected to the water receiving tank 104.
[0051] The reciprocating crank drive mechanism 7 of the present invention includes a servo motor 701 disposed on the connecting valve body 4. The output end of the servo motor 701 is sequentially provided with a first circular connecting plate 702, a first eccentric shaft 703, a second circular connecting plate 704 and a second eccentric shaft 708. The first eccentric shaft 703 and the second eccentric shaft 708 are respectively disposed at the upper and lower positions of the second circular connecting plate 704.
[0052] Two arc-shaped rotating parts 602 are arranged symmetrically on the left and right sides. The servo motor 701 is located between the two arc-shaped rotating parts 602. A swing rod 705 is provided at the inner end of each arc-shaped rotating part 602. A first connecting rod 706 is hinged between the outer end of one swing rod 705 and the first eccentric shaft 703. A second connecting rod 707 is hinged between the outer end of the other swing rod 705 and the second eccentric shaft 708.
[0053] The rotation of the servo motor 701 drives the two first eccentric shafts 703 and the second eccentric shaft 708 to move up and down, and drives the corresponding first connecting rod 706 and the second connecting rod 707 to move up and down. The first connecting rod 706 and the second connecting rod 707 drive the corresponding swing rod 705 to swing back and forth. When the swing rod 705 swings back and forth, it causes the two sets of semi-cylindrical dehumidifying cotton strips 9 and the arc-shaped rotating component 602 inside to rotate alternately.
[0054] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles and main features of the present invention, as well as its advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention.
