Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air-conditioning water recovery devices, and in particular to an air-conditioning water recovery device for a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN208885380U relates to an auxiliary cooling system for an automobile engine, which belongs to the field of engine heat dissipation, including an air-conditioning water recovery system, which includes a circulating water pump and a circulating water pipe. A water spray pot is provided on the right side of the air-conditioning water recovery system, and the right end of the circulating water pipe is plugged into the water spray pot. A heat dissipation water pump is installed at the bottom of the water spray pot. A cooling water pipe is fixedly connected to the heat dissipation water pump, and the cooling water pipe runs through the water spray pot and extends to the outside of the water spray pot. The end of the cooling water pipe away from the heat dissipation water pump is connected to the copper tube heat sink through a flange, and a delayed power-off switch is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cooling water pipe close to the copper tube heat sink. The other end of the copper tube heat sink is also connected to a water spray hose through a flange. An air-conditioning evaporator is installed at the lower end of the copper tube heat sink, and a thermostat is fixedly connected to the side wall of the water spray hose, which can achieve auxiliary engine heat dissipation and improve the heat dissipation effect of the engine. However, the air-conditioning water recovery system in the utility model is not equipped with a liquid level sensor, and is unable to monitor the changes in the liquid level height of the air-conditioning water recovery tank in real time. Therefore, the air-conditioning water recovery system is prone to the adverse consequence that the circulating water pump in the air-conditioning water recovery tank fails to extract the recovered air-conditioning water in time, resulting in water overflow. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the problem of water overflow in the existing air-conditioning water recovery system for automobiles due to the failure of a circulating water pump to extract the recovered air-conditioning water in time, the present invention provides an air-conditioning water recovery device for a vehicle, comprising an air-conditioning water recovery container, a first liquid level sensor, an on-off controller, a water pump and a water pump working time controller, wherein the first liquid level sensor and the water pump are respectively installed on one side of the upper part and one side of the lower part of the air-conditioning water recovery container, one end of the first liquid level sensor is connected to the water pump through a fourth wire and is equipped with the water pump working time controller, and the other end of the first liquid level sensor is connected to the on-off controller through a first wire.

[0004] Furthermore, it comprises a water inlet pipe, the top of the air-conditioning water recovery container is equipped with the water inlet pipe, and the water inlet pipe is used to be connected to the air-conditioning drainage pipe.

[0005] Furthermore, it comprises a water outlet pipe, both ends of which are respectively connected to the water outlet of the water pump and the top of the water container.

[0006] Furthermore, it comprises a second liquid level sensor, which is installed on one side of the top of the water container, and is connected to the on-off controller via a second wire.

[0007] Furthermore, it comprises a power supply, and the power supply is connected to the on-off controller via a third wire.

[0008] The present invention monitors the water level of recycled water in the air-conditioning water recycling container in real time through a first liquid level sensor. When the water level of recycled water in the air-conditioning water recycling container reaches the position of the first liquid level sensor, the power supply is controlled by the on-off controller to supply power to the water pump and the water pump is started through the water pump working time controller. At this time, the recycled water is pumped out by the water pump and transported to the water use container through the water outlet pipe. When the water pump working time reaches the set time of the water pump working time controller, the water pump automatically stops pumping water, thereby ensuring that the water level of recycled water in the air-conditioning water recycling container is always at a safe water level, avoiding the water pump from working without water, effectively avoiding the phenomenon of water overflow, and realizing the effective recovery, transportation and reuse of air-conditioning water.

[0009] In addition, the present invention monitors the water level in the water container in real time through the second liquid level sensor. When the water level in the water container reaches the position of the second liquid level sensor after the water pump delivers the recycled water, the second liquid level sensor controls the power supply through the on-off controller to stop supplying power to the first liquid level sensor and the water pump. At this time, the first liquid level sensor and the water pump both stop working, thereby ensuring that the water level in the water container is full and the water supply is stopped. It is always at a safe water level, effectively avoiding the phenomenon of overflowing water, and realizing the effective recovery, delivery and reuse of air conditioning water.

[0010] The capacity of the air-conditioning water recovery container and the water pump working time in the water pump working time controller can be set according to the air-conditioning water flow of various types of transportation vehicles.

[0011] Furthermore, a waterproof vibration baffle is included, which is arranged on the upper part of the air-conditioning water recovery container and close to the lower part of the first liquid level sensor. The waterproof vibration baffle can effectively prevent the recovered water in the air-conditioning water recovery container from splashing to the first liquid level sensor position due to the vibration or shaking of the recovered water when the water level is lower than the first liquid level sensor position, thereby affecting the normal monitoring of the recovered water level by the first liquid level sensor.

[0012] Furthermore, it comprises a filter screen, wherein the filter screen is arranged at the water inlet of the water pump (6).

[0013] The filter screen can effectively purify the recycled water.

[0014] Furthermore, it comprises a drain port, which is arranged on the upper part of the air-conditioning water recovery container and is located above the first liquid level sensor.

[0015] The drain port can automatically drain water when the water level of the recycled water in the air-conditioning water recycling container is too high.

[0016] Furthermore, it comprises a dust cap, which is installed at the outer end of the drain outlet.

[0017] The dustproof cap can effectively prevent fine particles such as dust in the atmospheric environment from entering the air-conditioning water recovery container, so as to ensure that the recovered water is not polluted by the external atmospheric environment.

[0018] Furthermore, the on-off controller is installed on the outer wall of the air-conditioning water recovery container or the water use container.

[0019] Furthermore, the water container is a glass water container.

[0020] The present invention can be widely applied to various vehicles equipped with air conditioners, and the recovered air-conditioning water can be transported to water containers such as glass water containers for effective reuse. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
