[0002] A tower fan is an indoor air blowing cooling device. When the tower fan works, air is thrown out by a fan to form an air flow, and then the air pressure is generated by the rotation of the wind wheel to generate a centrifugal wind force, and finally the wind force is transmitted through the internal air guide wall. Since the fan wind wheel has many blades, the air supply is uniform and gentle, very close to natural wind.

[0003] In the prior art, in order to improve the cooling effect of the tower fan, a receiving shell is provided at the bottom of the tower fan. After the user fills water or ice in the receiving shell, the receiving shell is arranged with an upward opening. When the tower fan is started, the water is sucked to the vicinity of the air outlet, and the temperature of the outlet air is reduced by the heat absorption of water evaporation and the low temperature of the ice water itself. However, in actual application, when the tower fan is turned off after use, there will still be some water or ice remaining in the receiving shell, and the remaining ice will continue to melt after the tower fan is turned off, resulting in waste of cold energy. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defect of cold energy waste in the prior art when using a tower fan that can add ice, so as to provide a cold air blowing cooling device and a tower fan device having the same.

[0008] A damper assembly, installed at the air inlet and the air outlet, a heat preservation layer is provided on the damper assembly, and the damper assembly has a first state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are blocked to close the air inlet and the air outlet, and a second state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are separated to open the air inlet and the air outlet.

[0009] Optionally, the receiving assembly includes a filling part and a melting part communicated below the filling part, the filling part is conical, the side with a smaller opening of the filling part is connected to the melting part, and the bottom of the melting part is communicated with the water collecting member.

[0010] Optionally, the melting part includes a plurality of hollow accommodating columns arranged in parallel.

[0011] Optionally, the loading part includes a loading shell body and a closing cover, and the loading shell body is detachably connected to the closing cover.

[0012] Optionally, the air door assembly includes at least one door panel body, and the door panel body is rotationally matched with the closed shell.

[0013] Optionally, the air door assembly includes at least one door panel body, and the door panel body is slidably matched with the closed shell.

[0014] Optionally, the air door assembly includes an electric reel fixedly matched with the air door assembly and a hanging curtain body wound around the electric reel. When the air door assembly is in the first state, the hanging curtain body completely closes the air inlet and the air outlet.

[0015] Optionally, the air door assembly is a louver structure.

[0016] The present invention also provides a tower fan device having the cold air blowing and cooling device described in the present invention.

[0017] The technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. The cold air blowing and cooling device provided by the present invention includes: a closed shell provided with an air inlet and an air outlet; a blowing assembly installed in the closed shell, the blowing assembly is arranged between the air inlet and the air outlet, a receiving assembly is fixedly installed on the air outlet side and / or the air inlet side of the blowing assembly, the receiving assembly is adapted to receive ice cubes, and a water collecting member is communicated with the bottom of the receiving assembly; an air door assembly installed at the air inlet and the air outlet, the air door assembly is provided with a heat preservation layer, and the air door assembly has a first state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are blocked to close the air inlet and the air outlet, and a second state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are separated to open the air inlet and the air outlet.

[0019] When the cold air blowing cooling device is working, ice cubes are loaded into the accommodating component, the blowing component operates, and at the same time, the air door component switches to the second state, so that the air inlet and the air outlet are opened. Air enters the interior of the closed housing from the air inlet, and then, after contacting the accommodating component and absorbing the cold of the ice cubes inside the accommodating component, it is output from the air outlet, bringing the cold to the room to realize blowing cold air.

[0034] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] Figures 1 to 4 Shown is a cold air blowing and cooling device provided in this embodiment, including: a closed housing 1, a blowing component 2 and a damper component. Among them, the blowing component 2 can be any one or a combination of an axial flow fan, a cross-flow fan, and a centrifugal fan.

[0037] An air inlet and an air outlet are provided on the closed housing 1. In this embodiment, the closed housing 1 is a vertical columnar structure. One side of the closed housing 1 where the air inlet is provided is an arc surface, and the side where the air outlet is provided is a flat surface.

[0038] The blowing component 2 is installed inside the closed housing 1. The blowing component 2 is arranged between the air inlet and the air outlet. On the air outlet side of the blowing component 2, that is, between the blowing component 2 and the air outlet, a receiving component is fixedly installed. The receiving component and the closed housing 1 are of an integral structure. In some other embodiments, the receiving component can also be arranged on the air inlet side of the blowing component 2, that is, between the blowing component 2 and the air inlet; or a set of receiving components can be arranged on both the air inlet side and the air outlet side of the blowing component 2. The receiving component is used to hold ice cubes. The receiving component is made of a heat-conducting material. The bottom of the receiving component is communicated with a water receiving box as a water collecting member 6 through a water collecting hole, which is used to receive the water after the ice cubes in the receiving component melt.

[0039] The damper component is installed at the air inlet and the air outlet. A heat-insulating layer is provided on the damper component. The damper component has a first state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are blocked to close the air inlet and the air outlet, and a second state in which the air inlet and the air outlet are separated to open the air inlet and the air outlet. When the damper component is in the first state, it is used to keep the remaining ice cubes in the receiving component warm.

[0040] The accommodating component includes a loading part 3 and a melting part 5 connected below the loading part 3. The loading part 3 is conical, and the side with a smaller opening of the loading part 3 is connected to the melting part. The bottom of the melting part 5 is connected to a water collecting member 6. The melting part 5 includes a plurality of hollow accommodating columns arranged in parallel. In order to increase the cold energy absorbed from the hollow accommodating columns when air passes through, in this embodiment, there are two rows of hollow accommodating columns arranged in an interlaced manner. The loading part 3 includes a loading shell body and a closing cover 4, and the loading shell body and the closing cover 4 are snap-connected through a snap structure. In some other embodiments, the loading shell body and the closing cover 4 can also be rotationally matched through a rotating shaft, a hinge, etc. After the ice cubes are loaded, the closing cover 4 is closed to seal the accommodating shell, so as to reduce the cold quantity dissipated from above the loading part, and as much as possible, the cold quantity in the ice cubes is transferred to the air by the way of heat exchange between the external air flow and the melting part 5. When the cold air blowing cooling device is working, the temperature of the blown air drops, but the moisture in the ice cubes will not be blown out with the air flow, the air humidity will not rise, and the room humidity will not increase, which can greatly improve the use experience of people sensitive to humidity. At the same time, it can also directly blow cold air to cool down electrical appliances.

[0041] In this embodiment, a group of air door components are respectively arranged at the air inlet and the air outlet. Each group of air door components includes two door panel bodies 7, and the two door panel bodies 7 are rotatably installed on the closed shell 1 through a rotating shaft or a hinge. When the cold air blowing cooling device is working, ice cubes are loaded into the accommodating component, the blowing component 2 operates, and at the same time, the door panel bodies 7 on the two groups of air door components at the air inlet and the air outlet are both opened, switched to the second state, so that the air inlet and the air outlet are opened, air enters the interior of the closed shell from the air inlet, and then after absorbing the cold quantity of the ice cubes inside the accommodating component by contacting the accommodating component, it is output from the air outlet, bringing the cold quantity to the room to realize blowing cold air. When the cold air blowing cooling device is not used temporarily, the air outlet component stops operating, and at the same time, the air door bodies on the air door components at the air inlet and the air outlet are both closed, switched to the first state, closing the air inlet and the air outlet, so that the cold quantity is stored in the accommodating component, thereby reducing the melting of the ice cubes in the accommodating component when the cold air blowing cooling device is not working, and greatly reducing the waste of cold quantity when the cold air blowing cooling device is on standby. When using it next time, the blowing component 2 operates, and at the same time, the air door component is switched to the second state, and the ice cubes filled into the accommodating component last time can be used to cool the air continuously, which can reduce the number of times of loading ice cubes and improve the convenience of using the device.

[0042] In addition, when the cold air blowing and cooling device provided in this embodiment is working to blow cold air externally, it will not blow out water, can directly blow on people and electrical appliances that are afraid of wet air, and will not make the room humid at the same time; humidity and temperature are two factors affecting the stuffy feeling in summer. When the cold air blowing and cooling device is working, it does not increase humidity, which can improve the user experience. Compared with air conditioners, whether the heat is discharged into the room or a ventilation duct is set to blow out hot air, there is no need to extend the outdoor unit outdoors, with low cost and simple installation and maintenance.

[0043] As an alternative implementation manner, one or two door panel bodies 7 of the air door assembly, and the door panel body 7 is slidably matched with the closed housing 1. Specifically, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the slide rail on which the door panel body 7 slides relative to the closed housing 1 can be arranged outside the closed housing 1 or inside the closed housing 1. The door panel body 7 can slide up and down relative to the closed housing 1, or the door panel body 7 can also slide left and right relative to the closed housing 1.

[0044] As an alternative implementation manner, as Figure 7 shown, the air door assembly includes an electric reel 8 fixedly matched with the air door assembly and a hanging curtain body 9 wound and installed on the electric reel 8. The forward or reverse rotation of the electric reel 8 drives the hanging curtain body 9 to wind onto the electric reel 8 or fall from the electric reel 8, so that the air door assembly switches between the first state and the second state. When the air door assembly is in the first state, the hanging curtain body 9 completely closes the air inlet and the air outlet.

[0045] As an alternative implementation manner, as Figure 8 shown, the air door assembly can also be a louver structure 10.

[0046] Embodiment 2

[0047] This embodiment provides a tower fan device with the cold air blowing and cooling device described in Embodiment 1. When the tower fan device is working, first load the pre-prepared ice cubes into the accommodating assembly, then start the blowing assembly 2 to run, and at the same time switch the air door assembly to the second state to open the air inlet and the air outlet. Air enters the inside of the closed housing 1 from the air inlet, and then after contacting the accommodating assembly and absorbing the cold of the ice cubes inside the accommodating assembly, it is output from the air outlet, bringing the cold to the room to realize blowing cold air. When the cold air blowing and cooling device is not in use temporarily, the air outlet assembly stops running, and at the same time the air door assembly switches to the first state to close the air inlet and the air outlet, so that the cold in the remaining unmelted ice cubes is stored in the accommodating assembly, thereby reducing the melting of the ice cubes in the accommodating assembly when the cold air blowing and cooling device is not working, and greatly reducing the waste of cold when the cold air blowing and cooling device is on standby.

[0048] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
