[0043] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the embodiments of the present invention will be more comprehensive and complete and fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, many specific details are provided to provide a full understanding of the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0044] Integral air ducts are often used in existing air-cooled refrigeration products. Integral air ducts improve refrigeration efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and provide users with a more uniform and stable temperature environment by optimizing the air duct structure. This technology not only improves the refrigeration performance of the product, but also provides users with more personalized temperature control options. However, in existing air-cooled products, integral air duct systems that can independently control four different temperature zones are still relatively rare. Most products still rely on more complex refrigeration systems such as dual or triple systems to achieve independent temperature control. Therefore, existing air-cooled products cannot provide sufficient flexibility and precision. In addition, the use of multiple refrigeration systems to achieve independent temperature control not only increases the complexity and cost of the product, but may also have a negative impact on the energy efficiency and reliability of the product.

[0045] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides an air duct system for a refrigeration device, referring to Figures 1 to 9 As shown, it includes: a refrigeration hood 1 and an air duct cover 3; the edges of the refrigeration hood 1 and the air duct cover 3 are buckled together, and a refrigeration air duct 2 is formed between the refrigeration hood 1 and the air duct cover 3. The edges of the refrigeration hood 1 and the air duct cover 3 are tightly connected by buckling, forming a closed and efficient air duct system. This structure not only enhances the structural stability of the system, but also effectively reduces cold air leakage and improves refrigeration efficiency.

[0046] The refrigeration hood 1 is provided with an air outlet and an air return port, one end of the refrigeration air duct 2 is connected to the air outlet, and the other end is connected to the air return port; one end of the refrigeration air duct 2 is seamlessly connected to the air outlet, and the other end is connected to the air return port, forming a complete cold air circulation loop. This loop design allows the cold air to be evenly and efficiently distributed to various areas of the refrigeration equipment, achieving uniform temperature distribution.

[0047] A fan motor 6 and an electric damper 7 are provided inside the refrigeration air duct 2. The fan motor 6 is fixed to the refrigeration hood 1 near the air outlet; the electric damper 7 is installed at the entrance of each compartment inside the refrigeration equipment. The fan motor 6 is fixed to the refrigeration hood 1 near the air outlet to drive the circulation of cold air. By adjusting the speed and power of the fan motor 6, the flow rate and speed of the cold air can be accurately controlled to meet different temperature control requirements and achieve energy-saving and efficient refrigeration effects. Secondly, by adjusting the opening and closing degree of the electric damper 7, the cold air supply in each temperature zone can be independently controlled to achieve precise temperature control in four different temperature zones, greatly improving the flexibility and personalized customization capabilities of the refrigeration equipment.

[0048] And a refrigeration equipment control system electrically connected to the fan motor 6 and the electric damper 7; the refrigeration equipment control system is configured to: send a fan motor 6 control signal to the fan motor 6 to control the fan motor 6 to be turned on or off, and the power of the fan motor 6; send an electric damper 7 control signal to the electric damper 7 to control the opening and closing degree of the electric damper 7.

[0049] The refrigeration equipment control system can adjust the operating status of the fan motor and the opening and closing degree of the electric damper in real time to ensure the optimal balance between refrigeration efficiency and temperature control.

[0050] The air duct system of a refrigeration device provided in the embodiment of the present application realizes precise temperature control of multiple different temperature zones by independently controlling the electric damper 7, thereby meeting the diverse needs of users for temperature control and solving the problem of inflexible temperature control of traditional air-cooled products. Compared with the traditional multi-system refrigeration solution, this system adopts a single air duct structure with a control system, which greatly simplifies the system complexity, reduces production costs and maintenance difficulties, and avoids energy efficiency losses and reliability issues that may exist between multiple systems.

[0051] By optimizing the air duct structure and intelligently adjusting the fan motor power, the system achieves efficient recycling of cold air and significantly improves the energy efficiency ratio. At the same time, the intelligent management of the system reduces human operating errors and improves the stability and reliability of the overall operation. Furthermore, the personalized temperature control options and stable temperature environment provide users with a more comfortable experience and meet the delicate needs of temperature control in different scenarios.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, it also includes: a first air duct cover 4 and a second air duct cover 5; the first air duct cover 4 is fixed between the freezing air hood 1 and the freezing air duct 2 near the air outlet, and the first air duct cover 4 is used to separate the first chamber and the second chamber; the second air duct cover 5 is fixed between the freezing air hood 1 and the freezing air duct 2 near the return air outlet, and the first air duct cover 4 is used to separate the third chamber and the fourth chamber.

[0053] The first air duct cover 4 can effectively divide the cold air outlet of the freezing air duct 2 into two independent channels, serving the first chamber and the second chamber respectively, ensuring that each chamber can obtain an appropriate amount of cold air supply, avoiding the disorderly flow of cold air between different chambers, thereby improving the accuracy and energy efficiency of temperature control.

[0054] Similarly, the second air duct cover 5 not only separates the cold air return channel of the third chamber and the fourth chamber, but also promotes the orderly return of cold air at the return air outlet through its unique structure. This design reduces the energy loss of cold air during the return air process and improves the overall energy efficiency of the system.

[0055] Through the first air duct cover 4 and the second air duct cover 5, the air duct system of the present application can achieve precise temperature control of four independent compartments. Each compartment can obtain an appropriate amount of cold air supply according to actual needs, thereby meeting the user's diverse needs for temperature control and improving the flexibility and personalized customization capabilities of the system. Furthermore, the flow path of the cold air is optimized, reducing the disordered flow and energy loss of the cold air between different compartments. This design not only improves the overall energy efficiency of the system, but also enhances the stability of the system, reduces energy consumption and failure rate. While maintaining efficient refrigeration performance, the air duct system simplifies the system structure, reduces production costs and maintenance difficulties.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, there are two electric dampers 7, one is arranged between the first chamber and the second chamber, and the other is arranged between the third chamber and the fourth chamber; the electric damper 7 has a fixed end and two control ends; the fixed end is fixed between the two chambers, and the control ends are respectively connected to two adjacent chambers.

[0057] It is understandable that an electric damper 7 is arranged between two independent compartments, such as between the first compartment and the second compartment, and between the third compartment and the fourth compartment. This layout is intended to accurately control the flow of cold air between two adjacent compartments through the opening and closing action of the electric damper, so as to achieve independent temperature regulation. Each electric damper 7 is provided with a fixed end and two control ends. The fixed end is firmly mounted at the separation of the two compartments to ensure the stability and reliability of the damper. The two control ends are respectively connected to the two adjacent compartments, and the damper is opened and closed by the electric drive mechanism.

[0058] The main function of the electric damper 7 is to regulate the flow of cold air between two adjacent compartments. When it is necessary to increase or decrease the cold air supply to a certain compartment, this can be achieved by controlling the degree of opening of the electric damper 7. This adjustment method is both flexible and accurate, and can meet the diverse needs of different compartments for temperature control. When necessary, the electric damper 7 can be completely closed to isolate the flow of cold air between two adjacent compartments. This isolation function helps to maintain the temperature of each compartment stable, avoid the disordered flow of cold air between different compartments, and improve the overall energy efficiency of the system.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present application, the refrigeration equipment control system includes a temperature sensor and a controller. The temperature sensor is configured to detect the temperature of each compartment inside the refrigeration equipment and send a temperature signal to the controller; the controller is configured to receive the temperature signal and send an electric damper 7 control signal to adjust the opening and closing degree of the control end of the electric damper 7 according to the temperature signal.

[0060] The temperature sensor is made of advanced thermosensitive materials and can detect the current temperature of the room in real time and accurately. Once the temperature changes, the temperature sensor will respond immediately and convert the change into a temperature signal. The controller is equipped with a high-performance microprocessor or single-chip microcomputer, which can quickly analyze the temperature signal from the temperature sensor, calculate the degree of adjustment required according to the preset temperature threshold or the target temperature set by the user, and generate a control signal for the electric damper 7.

[0061] According to the control signal sent by the controller, the electric damper 7 can automatically adjust its opening and closing degree, thereby optimizing the flow path and flow rate of the cold air, ensuring that each room can reach the ideal temperature state. This dynamic adjustment mechanism not only improves the cooling efficiency, but also significantly reduces unnecessary energy consumption.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, a heating wire is provided on the electric damper 7; the controller is configured to: receive a temperature signal, and if the temperature of any of the first chamber, the second chamber, the third chamber and the fourth chamber is lower than a preset temperature value, send a heating start signal to the electric damper 7 of the corresponding chamber; the electric damper 7 is configured to: receive the heating start signal and control the heating wire to heat.

[0063] The heating wire is made of high-resistance, high-temperature-resistant material and is evenly distributed inside or on the edge of the damper, and can quickly generate heat when powered on. This design enables the electric damper 7 to not only have the function of regulating the flow of cold air, but also serve as an auxiliary heating element when needed to provide additional heat for the corresponding compartment.

[0064] In this embodiment, by adding a heating wire, the electric damper 7 can provide additional heat to the compartment under extremely low temperature conditions, ensuring that the temperature is controlled within a preset range, avoiding equipment failure or damage to stored items caused by too low temperature. The controller can monitor the temperature of each compartment in real time and quickly start the heating function as needed, significantly improving the flexibility and response speed of temperature regulation, and meeting diverse and rapidly changing temperature requirements. At the same time, users can enjoy the stable and comfortable temperature environment brought by the intelligent control system without manual intervention, which improves the convenience and satisfaction of use.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, a dehumidification device is provided inside the freezing air duct 2, and the dehumidification device is provided between the second air duct cover 5 and the return air outlet.

[0066] The main function of the dehumidifier is to remove excess moisture from the cold air circulating in the refrigeration duct 2 to prevent condensation, ice formation or equipment performance degradation caused by excessive humidity. The device can use a variety of technologies, such as condensation dehumidification, adsorption dehumidification or membrane separation dehumidification, and the specific choice depends on the actual application scenario and performance requirements. When the cold air circulates in the refrigeration duct 2, the dehumidifier captures and removes the moisture in it to ensure that the cold air remains dry, thereby improving refrigeration efficiency and equipment stability.

[0067] By adding a dehumidifier and precisely controlling its position, this embodiment solves the problem of excessive humidity inside the refrigeration air duct and improves the stability and efficiency of the refrigeration system. The dehumidified cold air is drier and can absorb heat more effectively, thereby improving the refrigeration efficiency and reducing energy consumption. A high humidity environment is prone to condensation, icing and other problems, affecting equipment performance. The dehumidifier can effectively prevent these problems from occurring and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, a drainage structure is provided inside the freezing air duct 2 , and the drainage structure is provided along the edges of both sides of the freezing air duct 2 .

[0069] The main function of the drainage structure is to collect and guide the condensed water generated inside the refrigeration air duct 2, ensure that it can be smoothly discharged to the outside of the equipment, and prevent equipment failure or performance degradation caused by the accumulation of condensed water. The drainage structure may take a variety of forms, such as grooves, conduits or sump, etc. The specific choice depends on the actual application scenario and drainage requirements. When condensed water is formed inside the refrigeration air duct 2, the drainage structure will quickly capture it and guide it to the predetermined drainage outlet, thereby keeping the inside of the air duct dry and clean.

[0070] At the same time, the drainage structure is arranged along the two side edges of the freezing air duct 2, which can maximize the coverage of the area inside the air duct where condensed water may be generated, ensuring that the condensed water is collected without omission. Secondly, the two side edges are usually relatively flat parts of the air duct structure where the drainage structure is easy to arrange, which is convenient for installation and maintenance. Finally, the drainage structure arranged along the edge will not interfere with the normal flow of cold air, maintaining the smooth flow of the air duct and the refrigeration efficiency.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, the refrigeration equipment control system also includes a compartment temperature display module; the compartment temperature display module is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, and is used to receive a temperature signal and display the temperature of the first compartment, the second compartment, the third compartment and the fourth compartment in real time; the compartment temperature display module is also configured to: interact with the user in real time, and manually adjust the opening and closing degree of the electric damper 7 of the corresponding compartment or the preset temperature value according to the displayed temperature.

[0072] The main function of the compartment temperature display module is to convert the received temperature signal into a visual temperature value and display it in real time on the display screen. In this way, the user can intuitively understand the current temperature status of each compartment. In addition, the compartment temperature display module also has the ability to interact with the user in real time, allowing the user to manually adjust the opening and closing degree of the electric damper 7 of the corresponding compartment or the preset temperature value according to the displayed temperature. This interactivity not only improves the user's operating experience, but also enables the refrigeration equipment to perform personalized temperature adjustment according to the actual needs of the user.

[0073] The compartment temperature display module realizes real-time interaction with the user through an intuitive display screen and a friendly user interface. The user can easily view the temperature information of each compartment through a touch screen or buttons, and adjust it as needed. For example, when the user finds that the temperature of a compartment is too high or too low, he can directly operate on the compartment temperature display module to adjust the opening and closing degree of the electric damper 7 of the corresponding compartment to change the flow and distribution of the cold air; or adjust the preset temperature value to change the cooling intensity of the refrigeration equipment. This interactive mechanism enables users to flexibly and quickly adjust the operating status of the refrigeration equipment according to their actual needs.

[0074] By adding a compartment temperature display module, the embodiment of the present application allows the user to intuitively understand the temperature status of each compartment and perform personalized temperature adjustment as needed. The real-time interaction mechanism between the compartment temperature display module and the user enables the user to quickly adjust the operating status of the refrigeration equipment according to their actual needs, thereby improving the flexibility and response speed of the system. The user can reasonably adjust the opening and closing degree and the preset temperature value of the electric damper 7 according to the temperature information provided by the compartment temperature display module, thereby optimizing the operating efficiency of the refrigeration equipment and reducing energy consumption. In addition, by real-time monitoring and displaying the temperature information of each compartment, the user can promptly discover and handle abnormal situations, such as excessively high or low temperatures, thereby avoiding equipment failure or performance degradation caused by abnormal temperatures.

[0075] From the above content, it can be seen that the present application discloses an air duct system for a refrigeration equipment, including a freezing air hood and an air duct cover; the freezing air hood is buckled with the edge of the air duct cover, and a freezing air duct is formed between the freezing air hood and the air duct cover; a fan motor and an electric damper are arranged inside the freezing air duct. The air duct system of the present application can formulate an air volume distribution plan according to the temperature requirements of different refrigeration compartments, and through two electric dampers, four compartments of the refrigeration equipment can be independently supplied with air and independent temperature control can be achieved. The air duct system can meet the precise temperature control requirements of refrigeration, freezing, warming, and variable temperature rooms. Through independent control of the electric dampers, precise temperature control of multiple different temperature zones can be achieved, which meets the diverse needs of users for temperature control and solves the problem of inflexible temperature control of traditional air-cooled products.
