DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0038] In addition, the present application may repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples, and such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present application provides various specific examples of processes and materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art may recognize the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0039] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The condensation module 120 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a condenser 121 and a water inlet channel 124. The water inlet channel 124 is used to connect an external water inlet pipe and communicate with the condenser 121. The condenser 121 includes at least one layer of condensation part 1211. The condensation part 1211 has a condensation agent cavity 122a for pouring condensation agent. When the condensation part 1211 is multi-layered, each two adjacent layers of condensation parts 1211 are connected. The condensation agent enters through the water inlet channel 124 and enters the condensation agent cavity 122a of each layer of condensation part 1211 in turn. The condenser 121 has a ventilation cavity 122b for ventilation, and the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b exchanges heat with the condensation agent.
[0040] When the gas entering the ventilation cavity 122b is condensed, the condensing agent enters the condensing agent cavity 122a of each layer of the condensing portion 1211 after entering through the water inlet channel 124, and performs heat exchange with the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b, so that the moisture in the gas is condensed into water droplets to improve the dehydration and drying effect. The gas entering the ventilation cavity 122b can be condensed by at least one layer of the condensing portion 1211, which has a simple structure, a small installation space and a low production cost.
[0041] In some embodiments, the condenser 121 is a main component of the condensation module 120, which is used to realize the condensation function of the condensation module 120, and the heat exchange between the gas and the condensing agent occurs in the condenser 121. The water inlet channel 124 is used to pass the condensing agent into the condenser 121. After the water inlet channel 124 is connected to the water inlet pipe, the condensing agent enters the condenser 121 from the water inlet pipe through the water inlet channel 124.
[0042] In some embodiments, the water inlet channel 124 may be disposed at the top, bottom or side of the condenser 121 , and the condenser 121 and the water inlet channel 124 may be integrally disposed to ensure the structural strength of the condensation module 120 and improve the integration of the condensation module 120 .
[0043] The condensation section 1211 may be provided with one or more layers, and the multi-layer condensation section 1211 may be provided sequentially in any direction, and each adjacent layer of the condensation section 1211 may be provided alternately or in layers, without limitation. When the condensation section 1211 is provided with one layer, the water inlet channel 124 may be connected to the condensing agent chamber 122a of the condensation section 1211; when the condensation section 1211 is provided with multiple layers, since each adjacent layer of the condensation section 1211 is connected, that is, the multi-layer condensation section 1211 is connected as a whole, the water inlet channel 124 may be connected to the condensing agent chamber 122a of the first or last condensation section 1211 along the arrangement direction of the multi-layer condensation section 1211, so that the condensing agent may enter the condensing agent chamber 122a of each layer of the condensation section 1211 in sequence.
[0044] The ventilation cavity 122b is adjacent to and isolated from the condensing agent cavity 122a, so that the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b can exchange heat with the condensing agent in the condensing agent cavity 122a to achieve condensation of the gas. At the same time, the gas and the condensing agent are separated to avoid mixing of the gas and ensure that condensation can proceed normally. It is conceivable that when the condensation portion 1211 is provided with multiple layers, the condensing agent cavity 122a of each layer of the condensation portion 1211 is adjacent to and isolated from at least part of the ventilation cavity 122b, so that the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b can fully exchange heat with the condensing agent in each condensing agent cavity 122a.
[0045] In some embodiments, in order to reduce the space occupied by the condenser 121 in the horizontal direction, when the condensation portion 1211 is multi-layered, the multi-layer condensation portion 1211 is spaced apart from top to bottom along the water inlet direction of the water inlet channel 124 .
[0046] Since the multiple layers of condensation sections 1211 are spaced apart from top to bottom, the water inlet channel 124 can be connected to the topmost or bottommost condensation section 1211, so that after the condensing agent enters the condensing agent chamber 122a through the water inlet channel 124, it can enter the condensing agent chamber 122a of each layer of condensation section 1211 in turn to exchange heat with the gas in the ventilation chamber 122b.
[0047] In some embodiments, in order to allow the condensing agent to gradually fill each layer of the condensation section 1211 from bottom to top, the bottommost condensation section 1211 among the multiple layers of condensation sections 1211 is connected to the water inlet channel 124, and every two adjacent layers of condensation sections 1211 are connected in series.
[0048] The condensing agent first enters the condensing agent chamber 122a of the bottom condensing part 1211 through the water inlet channel 124, and the water inlet pipe continuously introduces the condensing agent. When the condensing agent chamber 122a of the bottom condensing part 1211 is filled with the condensing agent, the condensing agent overflows to the condensing agent chamber 122a of the upper condensing part 1211, and so on. That is, after the condensing agent enters the condenser 121, it flows from bottom to top, and sequentially enters the condensing agent chamber 122a of each layer of condensing part 1211, until the condensing agent chamber 122a of the upper condensing part 1211 is filled with the condensing agent.
[0049] The flow path of the gas may be from top to bottom or from bottom to top, and there is no limitation on this. When the gas flows in the condenser 121, heat exchange with the condensing agent is achieved.
[0050] The condensing agent chambers 122a of two adjacent layers of condensing parts 1211 can be connected through the connecting pipe 1212 to achieve serial connection. That is, when the condensing agent chamber 122a of one layer of condensing parts 1211 is filled with condensing agent, the condensing agent overflows to the condensing agent chamber 122a of the upper layer of condensing parts 1211 through the connecting pipe 1212. One, two or more connecting pipes 1212 between two adjacent layers of condensing parts 1211 can be provided. The more connecting pipes 1212 are provided, the faster the overflow speed of the condensing agent is.
[0051] In some embodiments, in order to separate the gas from the condensing agent and prevent the gas and the condensing agent from mixing, the ventilation cavity 122b includes a ventilation hole 122c disposed in the condensation portion 1211, and the condensing agent cavity 122a surrounds the outside of the hole wall of the ventilation hole 122c.
[0052] The condenser chamber 122a surrounds the hole wall of the vent hole 122c. In other words, the vent hole 122c is arranged in the condenser chamber 122a, and the vent hole 122c is isolated from the condenser chamber 122a by its hole wall, that is, the condenser chamber 122a and the vent chamber 122b are adjacent to and isolated from each other, so that the gas in the vent chamber 122b can exchange heat with the condenser in the condenser chamber 122a to achieve condensation of the gas.
[0053] A plurality of vent holes 122c may be arranged at intervals in each condensation portion 1211. The more vent holes 122c there are, the larger the heat exchange area between the gas and the condensing agent is, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency and enhancing the condensation effect on the gas.
[0054] In some embodiments, in order to increase the volume of the ventilation cavity so that the condenser can accommodate more gas, thereby condensing more gas and improving the condensation efficiency of the gas, the interval between each two adjacent layers of condensation parts 1211 is connected to the ventilation hole 122c to form a ventilation cavity 122b.
[0055] That is, the gas in the vent holes 122c in one layer of the condensation section 1211 can flow to the vent holes 122c in another layer of the condensation section 1211 through the gap between two adjacent layers of the condensation section 1211 to realize the flow of gas, so that the gas enters each layer of the condensation section 1211 in turn to exchange heat with the condensing agent.
[0056] As mentioned above, the condensing agent chambers 122a of two adjacent layers of condensation sections 1211 can be connected through the connecting tube 1212 to achieve series connection. Obviously, the connecting tube 1212 is also arranged in the interval between the two adjacent layers of condensation sections 1211. Of course, the connecting tube 1212 and the ventilation chamber 122b are separated so that the condensing agent and the gas are completely isolated, so that the flow of the condensing agent and the flow of the gas do not interfere with each other.
[0057] In some embodiments, in order to increase the residence time of the gas in the condenser 121 and improve the condensation effect of the gas, the air holes 122c of each two adjacent layers of the condensation section 1211 are not coaxial, that is, they are staggered to extend the internal gas path and improve the heat exchange efficiency.
[0058] When the air holes 122c of each two adjacent layers of condensation sections 1211 are not coaxial, that is, the air holes 122c of two adjacent layers of condensation sections 1211 are staggered, the internal gas path can be extended and the heat exchange efficiency can be improved. At the same time, when the gas enters the gap between the two adjacent layers of the condensation sections 1211 from the air holes 122c of one layer of the condensation section 1211, it can be blocked by the adjacent condensation section 1211 to prevent the gas from being directly discharged from the air holes 122c of the adjacent condensation section 1211, thereby increasing the flow resistance of the gas and extending the residence time of the gas in the condenser 121, thereby making the heat exchange time between the gas and the refrigerant longer, further improving the heat exchange efficiency and enhancing the condensation effect on the gas.
[0059] In some embodiments, in order to further reduce the space occupied by the condenser 121 in the horizontal direction, the condensation portion 1211 is inclined relative to the water inlet channel 124 .
[0060] At least part of the water inlet channel 124 may be located at the upper part of the condenser 121, so that due to the gravity of the condenser itself, the condenser can enter the condenser 121 more quickly. In addition, the water inlet channel 124 may be arranged vertically, so that the distance between the connection point between the water inlet channel 124 and the water inlet pipe and the connection point between the water inlet channel 124 and the condenser 121 is the shortest, which can further increase the rate at which the condenser enters the condenser 121, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0061] The condensation portion 1211 is inclined relative to the vertical water inlet channel 124, which can reduce the space occupied by the condensation portion 1211 in the horizontal direction, thereby reducing the space occupied by the condenser 121 in the horizontal direction, and to a certain extent avoid excessive crowding of the space inside the clothing processing equipment in the horizontal direction, making the space utilization inside the clothing processing equipment more reasonable and orderly.
[0062] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the passage of the condensing agent into the bottommost condensation section 1211 so that the condensing agent can gradually fill all the condensation sections 1211 from low to high, the connection between the condensation section 1211 and the water inlet channel 124 is located at the lowest point of the condenser 121.
[0063] Since the bottommost condensation portion 1211 among the multiple layers of condensation portions 1211 is connected to the water inlet channel 124, and the condensation portion 1211 is inclined relative to the water inlet channel 124, that is, the lowest point of the condenser 121 is the position of the edge of the bottommost condensation portion 1211, the water inlet channel 124 is connected to the edge of the bottommost condensation portion 1211, which can avoid interference between the water inlet channel 124 and other components in the middle of the condenser 121, and facilitate the setting of the water inlet channel 124.
[0064] In some embodiments, when the refrigerant fills all the condensation parts 1211, in order to discharge the condensant and replenish new condensant, a water outlet 1213 is provided at the highest point of the bottom plate of the uppermost condensation part 1211, and the water outlet 1213 is connected to the ventilation cavity 122b.
[0065] In some embodiments, since the condensation portion 1211 is tilted relative to the water inlet channel 124, the condensation agent in the condensation agent chamber 122a will flow downward under the action of its own gravity. Therefore, when the highest point of the uppermost condensation portion 1211 is also filled with condensation agent, the condensation agent chamber 122a of the uppermost condensation portion 1211 is completely filled, and heat exchange with the gas in all the vents 122c can be fully achieved. During the drying process of the clothing processing device, high-humidity gas will continuously enter the condenser 121, and the condensation agent needs to be continuously introduced into the condenser 121 to achieve continuous condensation of the gas. Therefore, after the condensation agent chamber 122a of the uppermost condensation portion 1211 is completely filled, the condensation agent therein needs to be discharged to replenish new condensation agent. Therefore, a water outlet 1213 is provided at the highest point of the bottom plate of the uppermost condensation portion 1211, and the water outlet 1213 is connected to the ventilation cavity 122b. Thus, after the condenser cavity 122a of the uppermost condensation portion 1211 is completely filled, the condenser can be discharged from the water outlet 1213 through the ventilation cavity 122b to allow new condenser to be continuously replenished.
[0066] In some embodiments, a plurality of water outlets 1213 may be provided, and the plurality of water outlets 1213 are arranged side by side and at intervals. When the size of the water outlet 1213 is larger, the discharge speed of the condensing agent is faster, and when the size of the water outlet 1213 is smaller, the discharge speed of the condensing agent is slower. The size of the water outlet 1213 is designed according to the supply speed of the condensing agent so that the uppermost condensing part 1211 is kept filled with the condensing agent.
[0067] It should be noted that the condensing agent is discharged from the ventilation cavity 122b, wherein the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b will also produce condensed water in the ventilation cavity 122b during the condensation process, that is, the condensing agent and the condensed water can be mixed in the ventilation cavity 122b and discharged together without being discharged through two separate channels, thereby simplifying the structure of the condenser 121.
[0068] In some embodiments, after the condensing agent and condensed water flow out of the ventilation cavity 122b, in order to centrally discharge the condensing agent and condensed water out of the condenser, the condensation module 120 also includes a drainage shell 123 connected to the ventilation cavity 122b, and the drainage shell 123 has a drainage channel 123a, and the drainage channel 123a is located below the condenser 121.
[0069] The drainage channel 123a is used to discharge the condensing agent and the condensed water out of the condenser 121. After passing through the ventilation cavity 122b, the condensing agent and the condensed water will continue to flow downward under the action of gravity. The drainage channel 123a is connected to the ventilation cavity 122b and is located below the condenser 121. Therefore, after passing through the ventilation cavity 122b, the condensing agent and the condensed water will flow into the drainage channel 123a and be discharged out of the condenser 121.
[0070] In some embodiments, in order to reduce the size of the clothes processing apparatus and to reduce the occupied space of the clothes processing apparatus, the bottom surface of the drainage housing 123 is in a shape that matches the outer shape of the lower component.
[0071] The lower component is a component installed below the drain housing 123 in the clothes processing device. The bottom surface of the drain housing 123 is adapted to the shape of the lower component, so that the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 can be arranged in a close fit with the lower component, thereby reducing the size of the clothes processing device and saving the occupied space of the clothes processing device. For example, when the lower component is a drum, the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 can be arc-shaped, so that it can be in close fit with the drum to save space. Among them, the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 can be a spherical surface.
[0072] Of course, in some other embodiments, the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 may also be an inclined surface or other shapes, as long as the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 is matched with the shape of the lower component, and there is no limitation on this.
[0073] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate drainage, the drainage channel 123 a is located at the lowest point of the drainage housing 123 .
[0074] Since the bottom surface of the drain housing 123 is an arc surface, the condensing agent and condensed water will flow to the lowest point of the drain housing 123 under the action of gravity. Therefore, setting the drain channel 123a at the lowest point of the drain housing 123 can facilitate drainage and improve drainage efficiency.
[0075] In some embodiments, in order to accommodate the condensation portion 1211 to protect the condensation portion, the condensation module 120 further includes a condensation shell 122 , the condensation portion 1211 is disposed in the condensation shell 122 , and the water inlet channel 124 is disposed in the peripheral wall of the condensation shell 122 .
[0076] The water inlet channel 124 is arranged in the peripheral wall of the condensation shell 122, so as to save the space occupied by the condenser 121, and part of the water inlet channel 124 needs to extend out of the upper part of the condensation shell 122 to facilitate docking with the water inlet pipe.
[0077] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the condensing shell 122 may be cylindrical. Of course, in other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the condensing shell 122 may also be other shapes, which is not limited thereto.
[0078] The condensation module 120 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a condenser 121 and a water inlet channel 124 connected to the condenser 121. The condenser 121 includes at least one layer of condensation part 1211 and a ventilation cavity 122b for ventilation. The condensation part 1211 has a condensation agent cavity 122a for injecting condensation agent. When the condensation part 1211 is multi-layered, each two adjacent layers of condensation parts 1211 are connected. When the gas entering the ventilation cavity 122b is condensed, the condensation agent enters through the water inlet channel 124 and then enters the condensation agent cavity 122a of each layer of condensation part 1211 in turn, and performs heat exchange with the gas in the ventilation cavity 122b, so that the moisture in the gas is condensed into water droplets to improve the dehydration and drying effect. That is, the gas entering the ventilation cavity 122b can be condensed by at least one layer of condensation part 1211, and the structure is simple, the required installation space is small, and the production cost is low.
[0079] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In a second aspect of the present application, a regeneration module 100 is provided, comprising the condensation module 120 as described above. The beneficial effects of the regeneration module 100 are the same as those of the condensation module 120 described above, and will not be described in detail herein.
[0080] In some embodiments, the regeneration module 100 includes a heating housing 111, a heating assembly 112 and a regeneration fan 150. The heating housing 111 has a receiving chamber 111a connected to the ventilation chamber, the heating assembly 111 is disposed in the receiving chamber 111a, and the regeneration fan 150 is connected to the receiving chamber 111a and the ventilation chamber.
[0081] The heating shell 111 provides an installation base for the heating component 112 and the regeneration fan 150, so that the heating component 112 and the regeneration fan 150 can be installed through the heating shell 111. Since the regeneration fan 150 is connected with the accommodating chamber 111a and the ventilation chamber, that is, the air inlet of the regeneration fan 150 is connected with the air outlet of the ventilation chamber, and the air outlet of the regeneration fan 150 is connected with the air inlet of the accommodating chamber 111a (the heating shell air inlet 111d), under the action of the regeneration fan 150, negative pressure will be generated in the ventilation chamber, and positive pressure will be generated in the accommodating chamber 111a, so that the intake air flow condensed in the ventilation chamber enters the accommodating chamber 111a from the ventilation chamber under the action of the negative pressure. The intake air flow entering the accommodating chamber 111a is heated by the heating component 112 arranged in the accommodating chamber 111a to form a high-temperature exhaust air flow discharged from the air outlet of the accommodating chamber 111a (the heating shell air outlet 111e).
[0082] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6In a third aspect of the present application, there is provided a clothes processing device, comprising the above-mentioned regeneration module 100. Since the clothes processing device is equipped with the above-mentioned regeneration module 100, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solution of the above-mentioned regeneration module 100.
[0083] In some embodiments, the clothes processing device includes a drying assembly 1000. The drying assembly 1000 also includes: a molecular sieve (not shown in the figure), a main housing 200 and a circulating fan 300. The main housing 200 has a circulating air chamber 200a and a regeneration air chamber 200b. The main housing 200 is provided with a circulating air outlet pipe 230 connected to the circulating air chamber 200a. The regeneration air chamber 200b is connected to the regeneration pipeline 130 and the air outlet 111e, and the molecular sieve is at least partially arranged in the regeneration air chamber 200b.
[0084] In some embodiments, when clothes need to be dried, the circulating fan 300 is started, and the moisture in the humid air flow in the drum of the clothes processing equipment is adsorbed by the molecular sieve, so that the humid air flow is converted into a dry air flow. The dry air flow enters the circulating air chamber 200a through the circulating fan 300, and then enters the drum through the circulating air chamber 200a to dry the clothes, thereby improving the drying efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0085] In some embodiments, the molecular sieve is rotatably disposed on the main shell 200. During the rotation, the molecular sieve circulates through the inlet of the circulation fan 300 and the regeneration air chamber 200b, and continuously adsorbs and desorbs moisture. In this way, a continuous dry airflow can be obtained to enter the drum and fully contact the clothes, thereby improving the drying efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0086] In some embodiments, the molecular sieve may be 13X (sodium X type) molecular sieve. Of course, in other embodiments, the molecular sieve may also be replaced by one of zeolite, aluminum chloride, and silica gel.
[0087] In some embodiments, the air inlet housing 133 and the main housing 200 may be integrally formed to reduce the number of assembly steps of the regeneration module during the production process, thereby improving production efficiency.
