Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioning, and in particular to an air purification module, an air conditioner and an air purification method. Background Art

[0002] Indoor air quality is closely related to human health, and people pay more and more attention to the purification of indoor air. In terms of air flow, it can be divided into indoor air internal circulation purification and indoor and outdoor air replacement purification. Among them, indoor air internal circulation purification is represented by air purifiers. When the indoor air continuously flows through the air purification module, it relies on the dust removal, sterilization and other functional components set inside it to remove or kill particulate matter and viruses in the air, so as to achieve the circulation purification of indoor air; among them, the indoor and outdoor air replacement purification, the principle is to use the air pressure difference between indoor and outdoor to achieve the dilution and replacement of indoor polluted air. This type of air replacement is divided into introducing fresh air from the outside into the room, maintaining a slight positive pressure indoors, so that the indoor polluted air is continuously discharged to the outside (hereinafter referred to as the fresh air purification mode) and extracting indoor polluted air to discharge to the outside, maintaining a slight negative pressure indoors, so that the outdoor fresh air is supplemented and flows into the room (hereinafter referred to as the exhaust purification mode). The fresh air purification mode is represented by micro-positive pressure fresh air fans and fresh air air conditioners; the exhaust air purification mode is represented by exhaust fans. Both micro-positive pressure fresh air purification and exhaust air purification break the air pressure difference balance between indoor and outdoor to maintain indoor and outdoor air flow, thereby continuously diluting the indoor polluted air to achieve the purpose of purification.

[0003] If the above three air purification modes need to be realized at the same time, according to the working principle, multiple fans, multiple sets of air ducts or multiple airflow reversing devices are usually required, which not only occupies the structural space of the whole machine, but also has high cost and complicated after-sales installation.

[0061] In this embodiment, an indoor return air port 101 is provided on the mounting plate 1 of the air conditioner. The indoor return air port 101 is used to communicate with the room and collect the indoor air. An independent first return air cylinder 2, a second return air cylinder 3 and a third return air cylinder 4 are provided on the mounting plate 1. The first return air cylinder 2 is provided with two first return air ports, the second return air cylinder 3 is provided with two second return air ports, and the third return air cylinder 4 is provided with two third return air ports. An air inlet cylinder 5 is provided with an A1 air port 501, an A2 air port 502 and an A3 air port 503. An outdoor air duct 6 is provided at one end of the air inlet cylinder 5 for introducing fresh air from the outside. A purification component is provided at the other end of the air inlet cylinder 5. The purification component has an air outlet channel 11 for filtering the passing air. A B1 is provided in the air outlet channel 11 along its axial direction. The air outlet 12 has a B2 air outlet 13 on its side. The B1 air outlet 12 and the B2 air outlet 13 are used to guide the purified air. The outdoor air duct 6, the three return air cylinders and the air purification component constitute an air purification module. The outdoor air outlet, the A1 air outlet 501, the A2 air outlet 502A3 air outlet 503, the two first return air outlets, the two second return air outlets, the two third return air outlets, the air outlet channel 11, the B1 air outlet 12 and the B2 air outlet 13 are combined with each other to realize the switching of the air purification module function. At the same time, a first air flow reversing component is provided in the air inlet cylinder 5, and a second air flow reversing component is provided in the air outlet channel 11, which are used to allow indoor air or outdoor air to pass through the path currently preset by the air purification module; specifically, the air purification module has the following three paths:

[0062] In the first path, the first airflow reversing component opens the A1 air outlet 501 and simultaneously closes the A2 air outlet 502, and at the same time, the second airflow reversing component opens the B1 air outlet 12 and simultaneously closes the B2 air outlet 13. The outdoor fresh air is sucked into the air outlet 11 by the purification component through the outdoor air duct 6 and the A1 air outlet 501, and then flows into the room through the B1 air outlet 12. The room maintains a slight positive pressure, and the original dirty air in the room is continuously diluted and discharged to the outside, achieving a slight positive pressure of the indoor air, forming a fresh air purification path, and introducing fresh air to continuously dilute and purify the indoor air;

[0063] In the second path, the first airflow reversing component opens the A2 air vent 502 and simultaneously closes the A1 air vent 501, and at the same time, the second airflow reversing component opens the B1 air vent 12 and simultaneously closes the B2 air vent 13. The indoor polluted air first passes through the indoor return air vent 101 and the two first return air vents through the A2 air vent 502 and enters the air inlet 5. The air purification module inhales and purifies the indoor polluted air and then flows into the room through the B1 air vent 12, forming an internal circulation purification path. The indoor polluted air is continuously filtered and purified by the purification module, thereby achieving the purpose of self-circulation purification of the indoor air.

[0064] In the third path, the first air flow reversing component opens the A2 air vent 502 and simultaneously closes the A1 air vent 501; at the same time, the second air flow reversing component opens the B2 air vent 13 and simultaneously closes the B1 air vent 12, and the indoor polluted air enters the air inlet 5 through the indoor return air vent 101, the two first return air vents, and the A2 air vent 502. The air purification module sucks in the indoor polluted air in the air inlet 5 and purifies it, and then passes through the air outlet channel 11 and the B2 air vent 13, returns to the two second return air vents, and flows to the A3 air vent on the air inlet 5 through the two third return air vents. 503, and then flows to the outdoors through the outdoor air duct 6 connected to the air inlet duct 5, so as to achieve the purpose of exhausting air to purify the indoor air; the first return air duct 2, the second return air duct 3 and the third return air duct 4 of the building block type have a simple structure and a clear wind path, which simplifies the structure of the overall air purification module, and through the mutual combination of the air outlets, the air flow path is converted through the cooperation of the first air flow reversing component and the second air flow reversing component, so that a set of fans and main air ducts can realize three modes of internal circulation purification, fresh air purification and exhaust purification, saving installation space.

[0065] The first air flow reversing component includes a first air door 14 rotatably provided on the air inlet tube 5, and is used to make the A1 air outlet 501 and the A2 air outlet 502 both have an open state and a closed state. When the A1 air outlet 501 is in the open state and the A2 air outlet 502 is in the closed state, a fresh air purification path is configured, and when the A1 air outlet 501 is in the closed state and the A2 air outlet 502 is in the open state, an internal circulation purification path or an exhaust air purification path is configured; further, the second air flow reversing component includes a second air door 15 rotatably provided on the air outlet channel 11, and is used to make the B1 air outlet 12 and the B2 air outlet 13 both have an open state or a closed state. When the B1 air outlet 12 is in the open state and the B2 air outlet 13 is in the closed state, a fresh air purification path or an internal circulation purification path is configured, and when the B1 air outlet 12 is in the closed state and the B2 air outlet 13 is in the open state, an exhaust air purification path is configured.

[0066] In this embodiment, a first damper 14 is rotatably provided in the air inlet 5. The first damper 14 is used to control the states of the A1 air outlet 501 and the A2 air outlet 502 in the air inlet 5, thereby switching different purification paths. Specifically:

[0067] When in the fresh air purification path, when the first air door 14 opens the A1 air outlet 501 and closes the A2 air outlet 502, fresh air from the outside can enter the A1 air outlet 501 through the outdoor air duct 6, and be discharged into the room from the B1 air outlet 12 of the air outlet 11 after being purified by the purification component (at this time, the second air door 15 opens the B1 air outlet 12 and closes the B2 air outlet 13), forming a fresh air purification path.

[0068] In the exhaust purification path, when the A1 air outlet 501 is closed and the A2 air outlet 502 is opened, the second air door 15 opens the B2 air outlet 13 and closes the B1 air outlet 12, so that part of the purified air can be discharged from the B2 air outlet 13 to the outside, thereby completing the exhaust purification process;

[0069] In the internal circulation purification path: when the first air door 14 closes the A1 air outlet 501 and opens the A2 air outlet 502, the air collected by the indoor return air outlet 101 will enter the air inlet 5 through the two first air guides through the A2 air outlet 502, and the purification component will purify the air in the air inlet 5. The second air door 15 closes the B2 air outlet 13 and opens the B1 air outlet 12. The purified clean air is then sent back to the indoor space from the B1 air outlet 12 of the air outlet 11, forming an internal air purification cycle.

[0070] The purification component comprises:

[0071] An air inlet bracket 7 is connected to the air inlet tube 5, and the air inlet bracket 7 is provided with a purification filter element;

[0072] The volute assembly includes an upper volute 8 and a lower volute 9 connected to each other, and a centrifugal wind wheel 10 located between the upper volute 8 and the lower volute 9. The upper volute 8 is fixed to the air inlet bracket 7, and the air outlet channel 11 is constructed between the upper volute 8 and the lower volute 9.

[0073] In this embodiment, in order to connect the purification component to the air inlet cylinder 5, the purification component includes an air inlet bracket 7, which is connected to the air inlet cylinder 5 and is equipped with a purification filter element for filtering outdoor or indoor air. The purification filter element can adopt a variety of technologies, such as HEPA (high efficiency particulate air) filter, activated carbon filter layer or other types of filter materials to meet different levels of purification requirements. The upper volute 8 and the lower volute 9 are connected to form a closed space to form an air outlet channel 11, and a centrifugal wind wheel 10 is accommodated in the middle. The function of the centrifugal wind wheel 10 is to generate strong suction through high-speed rotation, suck in air and process it through the purification filter element. The purified air will be discharged from the air outlet channel 11 formed by the upper volute 8 and the lower volute 9.

[0074] A plurality of mounting points are provided at the connection between the air inlet bracket 7 and the air inlet tube 5, and the plurality of mounting points are respectively fixed along the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions.

[0075] In this embodiment, by setting installation points in three dimensions (X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis), the stability of the connection between the air inlet bracket 7 and the air inlet tube 5 can be significantly improved, and it can effectively resist the forces from different directions, ensuring that the purification component can remain stable even when vibration occurs or is affected by external forces during the operation of the equipment. Multi-point fixation helps to improve the sealing of the connection, reduce the possibility of air leakage, and thus ensure purification efficiency.

[0076] The air inlet tube 5 is provided with a third damper 16 for closing or opening the A3 air outlet 503. In the fresh air path or the internal circulation purification path, the third damper 16 closes the A3 air outlet 503. In the fresh air purification path, the third damper 16 opens the A3 air outlet 503.

[0077] In this embodiment, when the air purification module is in the fresh air purification path, the first damper 14 opens the A1 air outlet 501 and synchronously closes the A2 air outlet 502, and the second damper 15 opens the B1 air outlet 12 and synchronously closes the B2 air outlet 13. At this time, a part of outdoor air will exist inside the second return air duct 3 and the third return air duct 4, or when the air purification module is in the internal circulation purification path, the first damper 14 opens the A2 air outlet 502 and synchronously closes the A1 air outlet 501, and the second damper 15 opens the B1 air outlet 12 and synchronously closes the B2 air outlet 13. When there is backflow of outdoor air, a part of outdoor air will exist inside the second return air duct 3 and the third return air duct 4, which may cause abnormal noise in this section of the cavity of the second return air duct 3 and the third return air duct 4 or condensation caused by the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor air. At this time, a third damper 16 is added at the position of the A3 air outlet 503 of the air inlet duct 5 to close the A3 air outlet 503, so as to prevent the noise and condensation problems caused by the backflow of outdoor air.

[0078] The present invention also provides an air conditioner, comprising an air purification module as described above. The specific structure of the air conditioner refers to the above embodiment. Since the air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here one by one.

[0079] The present invention also provides an air purification method, comprising the air purification module described above, wherein the air purification module comprises a fresh air purification mode, an internal circulation purification mode and an exhaust air purification mode, and the air purification method comprises the following steps:

[0080] Introduce outdoor air, purify it through the air purification module and then discharge it into the room, and switch the air purification module to the fresh air purification mode;
