[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air-conditioning condensate water treatment, and in particular to an air-conditioning condensate water treatment device. Background Art
[0002] Condensed water comes from the refrigeration process of the indoor air conditioner. When the surface temperature of the heat exchanger is lower than the dew point temperature of the indoor air, the water vapor in the air is condensed here to form liquid water. There are many reasons for the formation of condensed water, such as the unreasonable design of the new exhaust system leads to excessive negative pressure, which makes the untreated outdoor air enter the room disorderly, increasing the air humidity and dew point temperature; unqualified insulation materials lead to increased heat loss and reduced air conditioning effect; too low air supply temperature can easily cause the water vapor in the air to condense quickly near the air supply port to form condensed water; poor air flow organization or excessive humidification may cause the relative humidity of the air in the air conditioning outlet area to increase, and the dew point temperature to rise, which is easy to produce condensed water; when the air conditioner terminal cools and dehumidifies the indoor air, its wall temperature is lower than the dew point temperature of the indoor air, which causes the water vapor in the air to condense into dew drops here; at this stage, these condensed water will then flow out from the water collection tray under the evaporator and be discharged smoothly through the condenser pipe. At present, some constructions adopt the method of filtering, recycling, vaporizing and other methods to reuse the condensed water, but such devices are relatively complex, occupy a large space, and have poor applicability.

[0015] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: like Figure 1 The condensate treatment device of an air conditioner shown in the figure comprises a condensate tank 1 and a water outlet 2 fixedly arranged at one end of the condensate tank 1. The condensate generated by the air conditioner during the refrigeration process is collected in the condensate tank 1 and discharged outward through the water outlet 2. A control valve 3 is detachably arranged on the water outlet 2. The control valve 3 is preferably an electromagnetic control valve, and the operator can remotely control its opening and closing as needed.

[0016] A water inlet assembly 4 is fixedly arranged on one end of the control valve 3, and the water inlet assembly 4 includes a water inlet pipe 40, a water storage tank 41 and a water outlet pipe 42. One end of the water inlet pipe 40 is sealed and fixedly connected to the control valve 3, and the other end of the water inlet pipe 40 is connected to one end of the water storage tank 41, and can guide the water flowing out of the control valve 3 to the inner cavity of the water storage tank 41. One end of the water outlet pipe 42 is sealed and fixedly connected to the bottom of the water storage tank 41, and the other end of the water outlet pipe 42 is connected to the atomizing assembly 5, and the water outlet pipe 42 is used to guide the water in the water storage tank 41 to the atomizing assembly 5.
[0017] The water inlet assembly 4 also includes an overflow pipe 43. An overflow portion 44 is provided inside the water storage tank 41. The overflow pipe 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the overflow portion 44. When the water in the water storage tank 41 enters the overflow portion 44, the water flows out to the designated drainage trough through the overflow pipe 43.
[0018] A filter 5 and a disinfectant 6 are arranged in the water inlet assembly 4. Specifically, the filter 5 and the disinfectant 6 are arranged at the bottom of the water tank 41, and the disinfectant 6 is located below the filter 5. The water in the water tank 41 passes through the filter 5 and the disinfectant 6 in turn and enters the water outlet pipe 42. The filter 5 uses a multi-layer filter mesh, and the disinfectant 6 is an ultraviolet disinfection lamp. In a preferred embodiment, the filter 5 includes a primary filter layer, an activated carbon filter layer and a permeation layer. The primary filter layer is used to remove large particles of impurities, and the activated carbon filter layer is used to remove odors and organic matter, and has a strong water treatment capacity. In a more preferred embodiment, a temperature detection module and a pH value detection module are arranged in the water tank 41 to detect the temperature, pH value and water quality of the condensed water in real time, and upload the data to the cloud through the air conditioner Internet of Things module and the Internet of Things technology to achieve remote monitoring and automatic adjustment to ensure that the water quality meets the standards.
[0019] An air purification module 45 is detachably provided on one side of the water tank 41 through a fastener, and an air purifier is added into the water tank 41 through the air purification module 45. Specifically, the air purification module 45 is a material storage box, and the air purifier is located in the material storage box, and the material storage box is connected to the inner cavity of the water tank 41, and the air purifier can enter the water tank 41 from the material storage box to adjust the smell of the air.
[0020] An atomizing assembly 7 is provided at one end of the water inlet assembly 4. The condensed water in the condensed water tank 1 enters the water inlet assembly 4 through the water outlet 2 and the control valve 3, and then enters the atomizing assembly 7 after being filtered by the filter 5 and sterilized by the disinfector 6. The atomizing assembly 7 atomizes the water therein and discharges it into the air.
[0021] The atomizing assembly 7 includes an atomizing tank 70, an atomizing sheet 71 disposed in the atomizing tank 70, and a water level detection module 72 disposed in the atomizing tank 70. The water level detection module 72 is used to detect the amount of water in the atomizing tank 70. Specifically, the water level detection module 72 is a magnetic switch. The atomizing sheet 71 uses an ultrasonic atomizer, which uses overclocking (usually in the range of 1-5 MHz) and high-frequency resonance of the atomizing sheet to break up water droplets into tiny floating particles of about 5 microns.
[0022] The atomizing assembly 7 also includes a water outlet assembly 73 and a control circuit board 74. When the water in the atomizing tank 70 exceeds the preset value, the water outlet assembly 73 discharges the excess water outward. The water outlet assembly 73 is an overflow pipeline, which is connected to the overflow pipe 43 in the water inlet assembly 4, and is uniformly discharged outward by the overflow pipe 43. The atomizing power of the atomizing sheet 71 is controlled by the control circuit board 74, that is, it is adjusted by a PWM signal. The PWM signal is a signal input to adjust the voltage input size. An indicator light for displaying the amount of water in the atomizing tank 70 is provided on the control circuit board 74. The water level detection module 72 includes a reed switch and a magnetic ring. When there is no shortage of water, the magnetic ring is floated by the water, and the magnetic field closes the reed switch. The control circuit board 74 detects that the signal changes, the oscillation circuit starts to work, the green indicator light is illuminated, and the oscillation atomization is turned on at the same time; when there is a shortage of water, the magnetic ring is away from the reed switch due to the drop in the water level. At this time, the reed switch contacts are opened, the atomizing sheet 71 stops and disconnects all outputs, and the red color shows the shortage of water at this time.
[0023] An adjustable mist outlet 8 is provided on the atomizing assembly 7, and the adjustable mist outlet 8 includes a mist outlet hose 80 and an exhaust fan 81 fixedly arranged in the mist outlet hose 80. The mist outlet angle is adjusted by bending the mist outlet hose 80, and the mist outlet amount is adjusted by controlling the rotation speed of the exhaust fan 81. The voltage of the exhaust fan 81 is generally 12V, 24V, or 36V, and the rotation speed of the exhaust fan 81 is controlled by the voltage of the exhaust fan 81.
[0024] During use, multiple air quality detection modules are arranged indoors to detect the humidity of the air. When air humidification is required, the control valve 3 is opened manually or by control of the control circuit board 74, so that the condensed water in the condensed water tank 1 enters the water inlet component 4 for filtration and disinfection, and then enters the atomization component 7 for atomization. The posture of the mist outlet hose 80 is manually adjusted to adjust the mist outlet angle, and spray in the specified direction to humidify the air. According to the air humidity detected by the air quality detection module, the control circuit board 74 is used to control the voltage of the exhaust fan 81 to control the mist outlet speed. When the water outlet assembly 73 overflows, the control valve 3 is closed by controlling the control circuit board 74 to stop the water supply. When the water level detected by the water level detection module 72 is lower than the preset value, the control valve 3 is opened by controlling the control circuit board 74 to supply water.
[0025] The above embodiments are only some illustrations of the concept and implementation of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the same. Under the concept of the present invention, technical solutions that have not been substantially changed are still within the scope of protection.
