Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards continue to improve and user demands increase, air conditioners are no longer only suitable for indoor environments. To meet the requirements of outdoor use, outdoor portable air conditioners have been developed.

[0003] To achieve the function of eliminating the need for drainage, existing portable outdoor air conditioners add a water pump motor to deliver condensate to the condenser. This serves two purposes: firstly, it lowers the temperature of the condenser, and secondly, it utilizes the surface temperature of the condenser to evaporate the condensate.

[0004] However, when using a water pump motor, the battery capacity inside the air conditioner is mostly limited by the overall weight. When the water pump motor runs together with other electrical appliances inside the air conditioner, the power consumption is high, which cannot meet the long-term battery life requirements for outdoor activities. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide an air conditioner that solves the problem of low battery life in existing portable air conditioners.

The first magnetic component also includes a third magnetic body, the two ends of the third magnetic body are respectively connected to the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body, and the third magnetic body is embedded in the third mounting groove; wherein, the first magnetic body, the second magnetic body and the third magnetic body are integrally formed structures.

[0012] Furthermore, a fourth mounting groove is provided on the second end face, the fourth mounting groove extends along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component, and the magnetic component also includes: a second magnetic element, the second magnetic element extends along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component, and the second magnetic element is embedded in the fourth mounting groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a through hole is provided on the bottom surface of the fourth mounting slot, and the fourth mounting slot is connected to the first mounting slot through the through hole; the end of the second magnetic body away from the first magnetic body passes through the through hole and is connected to the second magnetic component.

[0014] Furthermore, the unit includes a water tray, and the air conditioner also includes a heating component, which is installed on the water tray.

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] As mentioned in the background section, existing portable outdoor air conditioners incorporate a water pump motor inside the unit to address drainage issues. This motor pumps condensate from the drip tray onto the condenser surface, causing the condensate to evaporate. This eliminates the need to drain the collected condensate, solving the problem of inconvenient drainage when using the air conditioner outdoors. However, adding a water pump motor increases the number of electrical appliances used, and the air conditioner's battery capacity, limited by its maximum mass, reduces the air conditioner's continuous operating time. Therefore, to address the aforementioned technical problems, the air conditioner of this application includes a magnetic component 300 on the fan assembly 200 and an electromagnetic component 400 on the side of the fan assembly 200. At least a portion of the electromagnetic component 400 is positioned opposite to the magnetic component 300. During air conditioner operation, the fan assembly 200 drives the magnetic component 300 to rotate, thereby cutting the magnetic lines of force generated by the electromagnetic component 400 and generating an induced current. This converts the mechanical energy of the fan assembly 200 into electrical energy. Simultaneously, an energy storage module 500 is provided, which is electrically connected to the magnetic component 300. The generated electrical energy is stored using the energy storage module 500. When the air conditioner's own battery power consumption decreases, the energy storage module 500 can be used to power the internal electrical components of the air conditioner, thereby improving the air conditioner's battery life.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 This application provides an air conditioner, comprising: a body 100; a fan assembly 200 disposed within the body 100, the fan assembly 200 being rotatably disposed about a predetermined axis; a magnetic component 300 disposed on and connected to the fan assembly 200, the fan assembly 200 driving the magnetic component 300 to rotate; an electromagnetic component 400 disposed to the side of the fan assembly 200, at least a portion of the electromagnetic component 400 being disposed opposite to the magnetic component 300, so as to cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component 400 during the rotation of the magnetic component 300 to generate an electric current; and an energy storage module 500 disposed within the body 100, the magnetic component 300 being connected to the energy storage module 500 to transmit the electrical energy generated by the magnetic component 300 to the energy storage module 500 for storage.

[0034] The air conditioner provided in this application includes a body 100, a fan assembly 200, a magnetic assembly 300, an electromagnetic component 400, and an energy storage module 500. The fan assembly 200 is disposed inside the body 100 and is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis. The magnetic assembly 300 is disposed on and connected to the fan assembly 200, and the fan assembly 200 drives the magnetic assembly 300 to rotate. The electromagnetic component 400 is disposed to the side of the fan assembly 200, and at least a portion of the electromagnetic component 400 is disposed opposite to the magnetic assembly 300 so as to cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component 400 during the rotation of the magnetic assembly 300 to generate current. The energy storage module 500 is disposed inside the body 100, and the magnetic assembly 300 is connected to the energy storage module 500 to transfer the electrical energy generated by the magnetic assembly 300 to the energy storage module 500 for storage. The fan assembly 200 drives the magnetic assembly 300 to rotate, generating current in the electromagnetic components using the principle of electromagnetic induction. This current is then transmitted to the energy storage module 500 for storage. This design allows the air conditioner to generate its own electricity during operation, reducing dependence on external power sources. This is especially beneficial outdoors or in areas with limited power supply, significantly extending the device's lifespan and reducing energy consumption.

[0035] like Figures 2 to 7 As shown, the fan assembly 200 includes a fan blade component 210, and at least a portion of the magnetic component 300 is embedded in the fan blade component 210. The electromagnetic component 400 includes a first electromagnetic body 410 and a second electromagnetic body 420, which are respectively located on both sides of the fan blade component 210 along the axial direction. When the fan blade component 210 is in operation, it drives the magnetic component 300 embedded therein to rotate. Because the magnetic component is closely matched with the fan blade component, this ensures high efficiency of magnetic field cutting, thereby maximizing the conversion of the mechanical energy of the fan blade rotation into electrical energy.

[0036] The first electromagnetic body 410 and the second electromagnetic body 420 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the axis of the fan blade component 210. This design makes the magnetic field distribution more uniform, effectively cutting the magnetic field regardless of the direction of the fan blade's rotation, thereby improving the stability of electrical energy generation. The design of embedding the magnetic component 300 into the fan blade component 210 not only makes full use of space but also enhances the structural stability of the fan blade component, reduces vibration and noise during operation, and improves the overall performance of the air conditioner.

[0037] The fan blade component 210 includes a first end face 211 and a second end face 212 disposed opposite to each other along the axial direction of the fan assembly 200. The magnetic component 300 includes: a first magnetic element 310, embedded in the first end face 211, extending along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210; and a second magnetic element 320, embedded in the second end face 212, extending along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210. The first magnetic element 310 and the second magnetic element 320 are respectively embedded in the first end face 211 and the second end face 212 of the fan blade component and extend along the circumferential direction. This arrangement ensures that the relative motion path between the magnetic element and the electromagnetic component 400 is maximized when the fan blade rotates, thereby more effectively cutting the magnetic field and improving power generation efficiency. Because the magnetic components are distributed circumferentially along the blades, this helps to form a uniform magnetic field distribution around the electromagnetic components, avoiding problems such as reduced power generation efficiency or uneven component wear caused by uneven magnetic field distribution. The magnetic components are embedded in the blade components and protected by the blades, which can prevent damage caused by collisions or external factors during operation, thus improving the durability and stability of the entire system.

[0038] Due to the circumferential distribution of the magnetic components, the wind turbine can continuously and effectively cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic components regardless of the rotation state of the blades, ensuring the continuity and stability of the power generation process.

[0039] like Figures 5 to 9 As shown, the fan assembly 200 includes a fan blade component 210, on which a first mounting groove 213 is provided. The first mounting groove 213 extends along the axial direction of the fan blade component 210, and at least a portion of the magnetic component 300 is disposed within the first mounting groove 213. By providing a mounting groove on the fan blade component, it is ensured that the magnetic component is tightly integrated with the fan blade, which not only saves internal space but may also help maintain the center of gravity balance when the fan blade rotates, reduce operating noise and vibration, and improve the stability and reliability of the overall structure. The setting of the mounting groove may also take into account the impact on the airflow path, ensuring that the airflow can pass smoothly when the fan blade rotates without generating additional resistance due to the installation of the magnetic component, thus ensuring the normal operating efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0040] The magnetic component is built into the mounting slot of the fan blade, which can avoid interference from external foreign objects and reduce safety risks. At the same time, the design also takes into account the possibility of the magnetic component loosening or falling off due to the high-speed rotation of the fan blade, thus enhancing the safety of the entire system.

[0041] The fan blade component 210 includes a first end face 211 and a second end face 212 disposed opposite to each other along the axial direction of the fan assembly 200. The first end face 211 is also provided with a second mounting groove 214, which extends along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210. The magnetic component 300 includes a first magnetic element 310, which includes: a first magnetic body 311 extending along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210 and embedded in the second mounting groove 214; and a second magnetic body 312 connected to the first magnetic body 311, which extends along the axial direction of the fan blade component 210 and at least a portion of the second magnetic body 312 is inserted into the first mounting groove 213. By providing a second mounting groove on the first end face of the fan blade component and embedding the first magnetic body therein, while the second magnetic body is connected to the first magnetic body and partially inserted into the first mounting groove, this arrangement allows the magnetic component to interact more closely and effectively with the electromagnetic component when the fan blade rotates. This improves electromagnetic induction efficiency, generates more current, and achieves more efficient energy conversion. The magnetic component is designed to extend circumferentially and axially along the fan blade component, rather than protruding from the fan blade surface. This helps reduce air resistance encountered during airflow, thereby improving the rotational efficiency of the fan blade and the air circulation effect of the entire fan assembly.

[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, a third mounting groove 215 is also provided on the first end face 211. The two ends of the third mounting groove 215 are respectively connected to the first mounting groove 213 and the second mounting groove 214. The first magnetic component 310 also includes a third magnetic body 313. The two ends of the third magnetic body 313 are respectively connected to the first magnetic body 311 and the second magnetic body 312. The third magnetic body 313 is embedded in the third mounting groove 215. The first magnetic body 311, the second magnetic body 312, and the third magnetic body 313 are integrally formed. Through the integrally formed structural design, the first, second, and third magnetic bodies form a whole, which enhances the structural stability and consistency of magnetic strength of the magnetic component, reduces the relative movement between components, and improves the reliability and efficiency of the system. The connection design between the third mounting groove and the first and second mounting grooves allows the magnetic body to be compactly embedded in the end face of the fan blade, making full use of space, reducing the size and weight of the entire device, and improving portability and installation flexibility. The one-piece magnetic body design reduces alignment and installation steps in the assembly process, lowers assembly difficulty and production costs, and improves production efficiency and assembly accuracy.

[0043] The optimized layout and connection method of the magnetic body can more effectively cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component, thereby generating a more stable and efficient current when the wind turbine rotates, which improves the working efficiency of the self-generating system and the charging speed of the energy storage module. By optimizing the layout of the magnetic body and embedding it into the mounting slot, the mutual interference between the magnetic bodies can be reduced, ensuring that the magnetic components can interact stably with the electromagnetic components under different working conditions, thus improving the working stability and reliability of the power generation system.

[0044] In this application, the fan blade component 210 includes multiple fan blades, each fan blade having a first mounting groove 213. Multiple second magnetic bodies 312 are also included, each correspondingly inserted into the first mounting groove 213 within each fan blade. The second magnetic body 312 has a frame-shaped structure and extends along a predetermined curved trajectory in the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210 to match the extension trajectory of the fan blade, thus making the fit between the second magnetic body 312 and the fan blade tighter. During assembly, the second magnetic body 312 is first inserted into the first mounting groove 213 along the axial direction of the fan blade component 210, and then the first magnetic body 311 is embedded in the second mounting groove 214.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a fourth mounting groove 216 is provided on the second end face 212, extending along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210. The magnetic assembly 300 further includes a second magnetic element 320, which extends along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component 210 and is embedded in the fourth mounting groove 216. Embedding the second magnetic element 320 into the fourth mounting groove 216 ensures a tight fit between the magnetic assembly and the fan blade component, reducing the overall space occupied and making the air conditioner design more compact, especially suitable for portable air conditioners, thus improving portability. By extending the magnetic element along the circumferential direction of the fan blade component, it can interact more effectively with the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component, improving the efficiency of power generation. When the fan blade rotates, the second magnetic element 320 can continuously cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component, thereby generating a more stable current and ensuring the efficient operation of the power generation system.

[0046] like Figure 8As shown, a through hole 217 is provided on the bottom surface of the fourth mounting slot 216, and the fourth mounting slot 216 is connected to the first mounting slot 213 through the through hole 217. The end of the second magnetic body 312 away from the first magnetic body 311 passes through the through hole 217 and connects to the second magnetic component 320. The through hole 217 allows the first magnetic body 311 and the second magnetic component 320 to form a more continuous and compact magnetic circuit, improving the utilization rate of the magnetic field and thus enhancing the power generation efficiency. The direct connection between the magnetic components reduces magnetic loss and ensures the efficient transmission of magnetic field strength within the magnetic assembly. This connection method not only makes the connection between the various parts of the magnetic assembly more compact, but also increases the rigidity of the wind turbine components, improves the stability of the overall structure, and reduces component loosening or damage caused by vibration. By providing through holes in the mounting slots, the internal space of the wind turbine components can be utilized more efficiently, allowing the entire power generation system to achieve a more compact and efficient layout without increasing the volume. The second magnetic body passes through the through hole and connects to the second magnetic component, which helps to maintain the stability of the magnetic field when the fan blades rotate. Even at high speeds, it can continuously cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic components and stably generate electrical energy.

[0047] like Figure 9 As shown, a fourth magnetic body 314 is also provided at the end of the second magnetic body 312. The fourth magnetic body 314 passes through the through hole 217 and is connected to the second magnetic component 320. The fourth magnetic body 314 and the second magnetic body 312 are an integral structure.

[0048] The unit 100 includes a water collection tray 110, and the air conditioner also includes a heating element 600 disposed on the water collection tray 110. The heating element 600 is electrically connected to the energy storage module 500 to heat the condensate in the water collection tray 110, causing the condensate to evaporate. The heating element 600 consumes electrical energy from the energy storage module 500 to heat the condensate collected in the water collection tray 110, causing the water to evaporate without physical drainage. This feature is particularly suitable for portable air conditioners or use in environments without drainage facilities, improving the portability and range of applications of the equipment. The drainage-free design reduces the need for regular cleaning or maintenance of drainage pipes, lowering maintenance costs and operational complexity, making the equipment more durable and easier to maintain.

[0049] The electricity generated by the self-generating system is stored in the energy storage module 500 and then used to heat the component 600 to evaporate condensate, realizing the internal recycling of energy and reducing dependence on external power sources. Especially outdoors or in places with unstable power supply, it can significantly extend the usage time of the air conditioner and reduce energy consumption.

[0050] The heating assembly 600 includes: a first heating element 610 disposed on the water receiving tray 110, with a height of H1; and a second heating element 620 disposed on the water receiving tray 110 and spaced apart from the first heating element 610, with a height of H2. The height H1 of the first heating element 610 is greater than the height H2 of the second heating element 620. When the condensate level is greater than or equal to H1, both the first heating element 610 and the second heating element 620 are activated simultaneously. Because the height H1 of the first heating element is greater than the height H2 of the second heating element, the heating assembly will only activate when the condensate level in the water receiving tray reaches or exceeds H1. This mechanism avoids activating the heating assembly when the water level is insufficient, thereby saving electrical energy and improving energy efficiency.

[0051] When the condensate level simultaneously covers both the first and second heating elements, both are activated at the same time. This ensures that the condensate in the water pan is heated evenly, accelerates water evaporation, and reduces drainage requirements, especially in narrow spaces or spaces without drainage facilities, such as inside tents.

[0052] The first heating element 610 is provided with a first potential sensing contact 611, and the second heating element 620 is provided with a second potential sensing contact 621. These contacts conduct electricity when in contact with water. The design of the potential sensing contacts ensures that the heating elements only start when there is water in contact with them, which avoids unnecessary starting of the heating elements in the absence of water, thus preventing dry burning.

[0053] Two sets of wind turbine components 200 are configured, with an energy storage module 500 positioned between them. Two sets of magnetic components 300 are also configured, each connected to one of the two sets of wind turbine components 200. Two electromagnetic components 400 are configured, each corresponding to one of the two sets of magnetic components 300. This corresponding configuration of the two sets of magnetic components and electromagnetic components increases the opportunities and frequency of electromagnetic induction, thereby improving energy conversion efficiency. When the wind turbine blades rotate, both sets of magnetic components interact simultaneously with their corresponding electromagnetic components, generating more stable and larger quantities of electrical energy, thus enhancing the efficiency of the self-generating system.

[0054] Specifically, the energy storage module 500 includes an energy storage device 520 and a support frame 510. The support frame 510 is disposed between two sets of fan assemblies 200, and the energy storage device 520 is disposed on the support frame 510. The energy storage device 520 is connected to the magnetic component 300 and is used to store electrical energy and output electrical energy to the heating component 600.

[0055] In this application, the first magnetic element 310 and the second magnetic element 320 in the magnetic component 300 are made of copper, and the electromagnetic component 400 is an electromagnetic inductor.

[0056] This application proposes a power generation system installed at the centrifugal fan blades at the evaporator and condenser ends of the air conditioner. This system enables the portable air conditioner to generate electricity during the rotation of the centrifugal fan blades, thus solving the problem of existing portable air conditioners being unable to generate electricity outdoors. Furthermore, by installing an energy storage device at the intermediate support frame of the portable air conditioner, the power generated by the power generation system can be stored and utilized, thus solving the problem of difficulty in storing the electricity generated by the portable air conditioner. Finally, by installing a heating plate system at the bottom of the water tray, the water tray can be drained without needing to be drained.

[0057] "Energy saving" means that the power generation system of the portable air conditioner can store the electricity generated during its operation and supply it to other systems.

[0058] "Intelligent" means that the portable air conditioner can achieve the function of drainage without human control during the drainage process, simply through the portable air conditioner's own system.

[0059] "Drainage-free" means that the condensate produced by evaporation is regulated by the heating plate system of the portable air conditioner itself, and there is no need to discharge it through a drain outlet.

[0060] The energy-saving, water-free air conditioner of this application mainly consists of an air conditioning system body, a water collection pan, a power generation system, an energy storage system, and a heating plate system. The power generation system includes an electromagnetic inductor, copper rings, and a control board. One power generation system is installed on each of the evaporator and condenser casings, positioned near the center of the portable air conditioner. The electromagnetic inductor on the power generation system is U-shaped, with the centrifugal fan blades installed in the center of the inductor. Copper rings, which are closed-loop, are installed on both sides of the centrifugal fan blades, with multiple copper rings on each centrifugal fan blade. During operation, the centrifugal fan blades on both the evaporator and condenser ends rotate at high speed. The copper rings on the centrifugal fan blades continuously cut the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic inductor. A conductive slip ring is installed on the drive motor of each centrifugal fan blade, and the connecting wires of the copper rings are connected to the conductive slip rings. The output wires of the conductive slip rings are connected to the energy storage module 500, thereby achieving the power generation effect.

[0061] The electricity generated at this time is unstable and needs to be stabilized and filtered by the control board. During normal operation of the portable air conditioner, the electricity generated by the unit is not needed due to the power supply. To address the issue of this unused electricity, an energy storage device is installed in the middle support frame of the portable air conditioner. This device stores the electricity generated by the evaporator and condenser power generation systems. After the power supply to the portable air conditioner is depleted, the energy storage device can then use its stored electricity for the air conditioning system.

[0062] Traditional portable air conditioners suffer from drainage difficulties or significantly shortened power supply lifespan due to the addition of drainage-free systems. This invention, based on a power generation and energy storage system, adds a heating plate system. This system consists of two heating plates, a potential sensing contact, and a control board. This system achieves drainage-free operation while simultaneously consuming excess electricity generated by the power generation system, extending the overall lifespan of the portable air conditioner. The first heating element 610 and the second heating element 620 are positioned on either side of the central support frame, with the first heating element 610 being higher than the second heating element 620. This arrangement prevents the heating plate system from activating when the water level in the drip tray is low; the higher element and lower element configuration ensure the system activates only when a certain water level is reached. During operation, the system primarily utilizes the electricity stored in the energy storage device, achieving drainage-free operation without consuming power from the mains power supply. Each heating plate has a potential sensing contact, which primarily functions to conduct the circuit when in contact with water. The heating plate system only activates when the water level simultaneously submerges both the first heating element 610 and the second heating element 620; otherwise, it will not activate. Its working principle of achieving drainage-free operation is mainly through the heating plate itself heating the water in the water tray to form water vapor and evaporate it.

[0063] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0064] The air conditioner provided in this application includes a body 100, a fan assembly 200, a magnetic assembly 300, an electromagnetic component 400, and an energy storage module 500. The fan assembly 200 is disposed inside the body 100 and is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis. The magnetic assembly 300 is disposed on and connected to the fan assembly 200, and the fan assembly 200 drives the magnetic assembly 300 to rotate. The electromagnetic component 400 is disposed to the side of the fan assembly 200, and at least a portion of the electromagnetic component 400 is disposed opposite to the magnetic assembly 300 so as to cut the magnetic field of the electromagnetic component 400 during the rotation of the magnetic assembly 300 to generate current. The energy storage module 500 is disposed inside the body 100, and the magnetic assembly 300 is connected to the energy storage module 500 to transfer the electrical energy generated by the magnetic assembly 300 to the energy storage module 500 for storage. The fan assembly 200 drives the magnetic assembly 300 to rotate, generating current in the electromagnetic components using the principle of electromagnetic induction. This current is then transmitted to the energy storage module 500 for storage. This design allows the air conditioner to generate its own electricity during operation, reducing dependence on external power sources. This is especially beneficial outdoors or in areas with limited power supply, significantly extending the device's lifespan and reducing energy consumption.

[0065] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
