[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a condensed water discharge device, comprising: a guide structure 10, a water receiving tray structure 20 and a drainage structure 30, wherein the guide structure 10 is arranged at the air outlet of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, and is used to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet; the water receiving tray structure 20 is arranged below the guide structure 10, and is used to receive condensed water on the guide structure 10; the drainage structure 30 is respectively connected to the water receiving tray structure 20 and the outside of the electrical equipment, and is used to discharge the condensed water collected by the water receiving tray structure 20 to the outside of the electrical equipment ; Among them, the guide structure 10 has a guide cavity 11 inside, and the entrance of the guide cavity 11 is connected to the air outlet; a flow port 50 connected to the interior of the electrical equipment is formed between the outer wall of the guide structure 10 and the water receiving tray structure 20, the outer wall of the guide cavity 11 facing the electronic components inside the electrical equipment is a closed structure, and at least a part of the outer wall of the guide cavity 11 not facing the electronic components inside the electrical equipment has a through hole 12; the cold air blown out of the air outlet passes through the guide cavity 11, the through hole 12 and the flow port 50 in sequence and is blown into the electrical equipment.

[0037] The present invention achieves the adjustment of the air outlet direction of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 and the effective collection of condensed water by setting the guide structure 10, the water receiving tray structure 20 and the drainage structure 30 to work together, thereby preventing the condensed water generated during the operation of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 from directly dripping on the electronic components, thereby preventing the electrical equipment from being damaged; by setting the guide cavity 11 to have a plurality of through holes 12 on at least a portion of the outer wall that does not face the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, it is ensured that the cold air enters the electrical equipment smoothly, and the cold air blown out of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is prevented from directly blowing on the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, thereby preventing the water vapor carried in the cold air from having an adverse effect on the performance of the electronic components, thereby effectively maintaining the overall quality of the electrical equipment. The working stability is improved; by setting the drainage structure 30, the condensed water collected by the water receiving tray structure 20 is discharged to the outside of the electrical equipment, so that the condensed water in the electrical equipment can be effectively collected and discharged, avoiding the formation of water accumulation inside the electrical equipment cabinet, thereby not only ensuring the overall working efficiency and working stability of the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, but also reducing the safety hazards such as short circuit caused by the accumulated water dripping on the wires; the condensed water discharge device proposed in the present invention ensures the uniform distribution of cold air by setting one or more through holes 12, and the overall structural design provides a strong guarantee for the efficient operation of the electrical equipment; the present invention has a simple structure and low cost, is easy to assemble and subsequent maintenance, and is suitable for large-scale promotion and use.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the guide structure 10 is a funnel structure, the guide cavity 11 is a funnel-shaped cavity, the guide cavity 11 has an outlet at one end away from the inlet, the outlet size is smaller than the inlet size of the guide cavity 11, and the outlet is connected to the water receiving tray structure 20 so that the condensed water in the guide cavity 11 enters the water receiving tray structure 20.

[0039] Through the design of the funnel-shaped cavity, condensed water can be efficiently gathered and flow to the water receiving tray structure 20, avoiding random dripping and splashing of condensed water and reducing direct damage to electronic components inside the electrical equipment; at the same time, the funnel structure can also effectively change the wind direction, ensuring that cold air enters the electrical equipment through a specific path, further protecting sensitive electronic components from direct blowing of cold air.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the funnel-shaped cavity is a conical cavity, and the inner wall of the conical cavity has a plurality of side wall surfaces 13 connected in sequence, wherein the side wall surface 13 not facing the electronic components inside the electrical device has a plurality of through holes 12, and the plurality of through holes 12 are arranged in rows and / or columns on the side wall surface 13.

[0041] By providing a plurality of through holes 12 on the inner wall of the conical cavity, cold wind can be blown evenly toward the interior of the electrical equipment from a specific angle. At the same time, due to the presence of the conical structure, condensed water can flow more smoothly to the lower part, thereby improving the efficiency of condensed water collection, reducing the residual condensed water on the guide structure, and further reducing the risk of damage to the electrical equipment.

[0042] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the conical cavity has four side wall surfaces 13 connected in sequence to form a quadrangular pyramid-shaped cavity. One side wall surface 13 facing the electronic component has no hole, and the other three sides have circular small holes arranged in an array (i.e., multiple through holes 12), which ensure that the cold air from the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 will not blow directly to the electronic components, thereby maintaining the stable performance of the electronic components under long-term operation.

[0043] Specifically, the guide structure 10 and the water receiving tray structure 20 are projected onto the same plane from top to bottom along the vertical direction, and the projection of the water receiving tray structure 20 covers at least a portion of the projection of the guide structure 10 .

[0044] By setting the projection of the water receiving tray structure 20 to cover part of the projection of the guide structure 10, it can be ensured that the condensed water can basically be effectively collected by the water receiving tray structure 20, avoiding the omission and splashing of condensed water, ensuring the dry environment inside the electrical equipment, and enhancing the overall drainage effect and equipment reliability.

[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the condensate discharge device also includes a support frame 60, which is arranged between the electrical equipment and the electric cabinet air conditioner 40. The support frame 60 has a first air flow channel 61 inside. The two ends of the first air flow channel 61 are respectively connected to the air outlet and the entrance of the guide cavity 11. The first air flow channel 61 is used to extend the flow distance of the cold air blown out of the air outlet into the electrical equipment.

[0046] By providing the first air flow channel 61 inside the carrier 60, the flow path of the cold air is effectively extended, so that the cold air has a longer time and space to disperse before entering the electrical equipment, avoiding the concentrated blowing of cold air on a specific area, thereby reducing the adverse effects of local low temperature on electronic components, and is also beneficial to the discharge of condensed water.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the lower part of the support frame 60 is detachably fixed above the electrical equipment, and the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is fixed on the upper part of the support frame 60; the support frame 60 also has a second air flow channel 62 inside, and the second air flow channel 62 is spaced apart from the first air flow channel 61 and is not connected; the two ends of the second air flow channel 62 are respectively connected to the interior of the electrical equipment and the air inlet of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, so that the air inside the electrical equipment can enter the electric cabinet air conditioner 40.

[0048] By setting up the second air flow channel 62, it is ensured that the hot air inside the electrical equipment can be effectively sucked into the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, so that a complete air flow circulation is formed between the electrical equipment and the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, which not only enhances the cooling effect of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, but also avoids the direct mixing of cold air and hot air, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, and efficiently maintaining the temperature and / or humidity balance inside the electrical equipment.

[0049] Optionally, the condensate discharge device further includes an air filter, which is detachably disposed inside at least one of the first airflow channel 61, the air outlet, and the second airflow channel 62, and is used to filter the airflow.

[0050] By arranging an air filter in at least one of the first air flow channel 61, the air outlet, and the second air flow channel 62, dust and impurities in the incoming and outgoing air flows can be effectively filtered, thereby protecting the electronic components inside the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 and the electrical equipment, extending the service life of the equipment and improving the reliability of operation.

[0051] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the water receiving tray structure 20 is a funnel structure, and the internal chamber of the water receiving tray structure 20 is a funnel-shaped chamber. The size of the upper opening of the funnel-shaped chamber is larger than the size of the lower opening. The upper opening is located below the guide structure 10, and the lower opening is connected to the drainage structure 30, so that the condensed water in the funnel-shaped chamber can be discharged to the outside of the electrical equipment through the drainage structure 30.

[0052] The structural design of the funnel-shaped chamber enables the water tray structure 20 to collect condensed water more effectively, especially when the upper opening is larger than the lower opening, thereby ensuring that the condensed water can smoothly enter the lower opening and reducing the splashing of condensed water. Subsequently, by connecting with the drainage structure 30, the condensed water can be discharged to the outside of the electrical equipment, avoiding the formation of internal water accumulation and maintaining the dryness and safety of the equipment.

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the drainage structure 30 includes a drainage pipe and a cover plate 31, and both ends of the drainage pipe are respectively connected to the water receiving tray structure 20 and the outside of the electrical equipment; at least a portion of the drainage pipe is located inside the electrical equipment, and the cover plate 31 is arranged inside the electrical equipment to cover at least a portion of the drainage pipe so that the drainage pipe is separated from the electronic components inside the electrical equipment.

[0054] The combined design of the drain pipe and the cover plate 31 not only ensures the smooth discharge of condensed water, but also prevents direct contact between the drain pipe and electronic components inside the electrical equipment through the design of the cover plate 31, avoids safety problems such as short circuits that may be caused by pipeline leakage, and enhances the overall safety of the system.

[0055] The present invention also provides an air-conditioning system, which includes the above-mentioned condensate discharge device; the air-conditioning system also includes an electric cabinet air conditioner 40; the condensate discharge device also includes a support frame 60, and the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the support frame 60; the support frame 60 is arranged between the electrical equipment and the electric cabinet air conditioner 40, and the support frame 60 has a first air flow channel 61 inside, and the two ends of the first air flow channel 61 are respectively connected to the air outlet and the entrance of the guide cavity 11, and the first air flow channel 61 is used to extend the flow distance of the cold air blown out of the air outlet into the electrical equipment.

[0056] The air-conditioning system proposed in the present invention realizes the effective management and discharge of condensed water of the top-mounted electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 by integrating a condensed water discharge device. At the same time, the setting of the support frame 60 optimizes the air flow path, improves the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner, reduces the negative impact on the internal environment of the electrical equipment, and improves the performance and reliability of the entire air-conditioning system.

[0057] The present invention also provides an electrical system, which includes the above-mentioned condensate discharge device, and the electrical equipment also includes an electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 and electrical equipment; the electrical equipment includes an electrical cabinet 70 and electronic components, and the electronic components are arranged in the electrical cabinet 70; the electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 is connected to the interior of the electrical cabinet 70, and is used to adjust the temperature and / or humidity inside the electrical cabinet 70.

[0058] The electrical system proposed in the present invention ensures that the electronic components inside the electrical cabinet 70 operate under a suitable temperature and humidity environment by integrating a condensate discharge device. At the same time, by connecting the electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 with the electrical cabinet 70, effective control of temperature and humidity is achieved, thereby improving the operating efficiency and life of the electrical equipment.

[0059] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the condensate discharge device also includes a carrier frame 60, the lower part of the carrier frame 60 is detachably fixed on the upper part of the electrical cabinet 70, and the electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 is fixed on the upper part of the carrier frame 60; the carrier frame 60 has a first air flow channel 61 inside, and the two ends of the first air flow channel 61 are respectively connected to the air outlet and the entrance of the guide cavity 11, and the first air flow channel 61 is used to extend the flow distance of the cold air blown out of the air outlet into the electrical cabinet 70.

[0060] By setting up a sealing cooperation between the lower part of the support frame 60 and the upper part of the electrical cabinet 70, the installation through-hole is effectively closed, which not only ensures the normal circulation of airflow, but also prevents the penetration of condensed water or other liquids, protects the electronic components inside the electrical cabinet 70, and enhances the sealing and waterproof and dustproof performance of the system.

[0061] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the upper portion of the electrical cabinet 70 has an installation through-hole, which is connected to the interior of the electrical cabinet 70; when installing the condensate discharge device, the guide structure 10 and the water tray structure 20 enter the interior of the electrical cabinet 70 through the installation through-hole; the lower portion of the support frame 60 is sealed with the upper portion of the electrical cabinet 70 to close the installation through-hole.

[0062] The installation through-port design on the upper part of the electrical cabinet 70 makes the installation of the condensate discharge device easier. At the same time, the sealing cooperation ensures the overall sealing of the electrical cabinet 70 after the condensate discharge device is installed, effectively preventing the adverse effects of the external environment on electronic components and improving the working stability and safety of the electrical system.

[0063] The specific working process and principle of an embodiment of the present invention are now described in detail as follows:

[0064] The support frame 60 is detachably fixed to the upper part of the electrical cabinet 70 by screws; a top-mounted electrical cabinet air conditioner 40 is placed on the support frame 60 and fixed by screws; a guide structure 10 is installed below the support frame 60, and both sides of the water receiving tray structure 20 are detachably fixed to the lower part of the guide structure 10 by screws; a drainage structure 30 is installed below the water receiving tray structure 20, and a cover plate is fixed to the water receiving tray structure 20 and the electrical cabinet 70 by screws. A rubber hose can be used for the drainage pipe, which is sleeved on the lower part of the water receiving tray structure 20, such as Figure 3 As shown, the portion of the drain pipe located inside the electrical cabinet 70 is covered by a cover plate 31 to isolate the drain pipe from the electronic components;

[0065] The first air flow channel 61 in the support frame 60 increases the distance between the air outlet of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 and the electronic components inside the electric cabinet 70, thereby playing a certain protective role for the electronic components; the guide structure 10 is designed to be funnel-shaped, and the outer wall surface of the guide structure 10 facing the electronic components is not provided with a through hole 12, and at least a part of the other outer walls not facing the electronic components has a plurality of through holes 12, which ensures that the cold air of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is blown out evenly and does not blow directly on the electronic components, and the performance of the electronic components can be maintained stable while the electrical equipment needs to be cooled; when the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is running, the water vapor in the air condenses when it is cold. The drops will flow along the funnel-shaped guide structure 10 into the water receiving tray structure 20, greatly reducing the probability of condensed water dripping directly onto electrical components and reducing the risk of equipment damage. At the same time, a drain pipe of suitable size and material (for example, a hydraulic hose wrapped with thermal insulation cotton on the outside) can be selected and put on the drain port at the bottom of the water receiving tray structure 20. The drain pipe is vertically extended along the columns on the inner wall of the electrical cabinet 70 to the outside of the electrical cabinet 70, and the cover plate 31 is used to cover the columns and the drain pipe. The condensed water will be discharged to the outside of the electrical cabinet 70 along the drain pipe, thereby avoiding water accumulation inside the electrical cabinet 70 and greatly reducing safety hazards.

[0066] In summary, the present invention provides a condensate discharge device, an air conditioning system and an electrical system. The present invention realizes the adjustment of the air outlet direction of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 and the effective collection of condensate by setting a guide structure 10, a water receiving tray structure 20 and a drainage structure 30 to work together, thereby preventing the condensate generated during the operation of the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 from directly dripping on the electronic components, thereby preventing the electrical equipment from being damaged; by setting a guide cavity 11 with a plurality of through holes 12 on at least a portion of the outer wall that does not face the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, it is ensured that the cold air enters the electrical equipment smoothly, and the cold air blown out by the electric cabinet air conditioner 40 is prevented from directly blowing on the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, thereby preventing the water vapor carried in the cold air from having an adverse effect on the performance of the electronic components. The condensed water collected by the water receiving tray structure 20 is discharged to the outside of the electrical equipment by setting the drainage structure 30, so that the condensed water in the electrical equipment can be effectively collected and discharged, avoiding the formation of water accumulation inside the electrical equipment cabinet, thereby not only ensuring the overall working efficiency and working stability of the electronic components inside the electrical equipment, but also reducing the potential safety hazards such as short circuit caused by the accumulated water dripping onto the wires; the condensed water discharge device proposed in the present invention ensures the uniform distribution of cold air by setting one or more through holes 12, and the overall structural design provides a strong guarantee for the efficient operation of the electrical equipment; the present invention has a simple structure and low cost, is easy to assemble and subsequently maintain, and is suitable for large-scale promotion and use.
