Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of maintenance and detection, and more particularly to a fault detection device for air conditioner maintenance. Background Art

[0002] Leakage of the air conditioner condenser is a common problem. In order to accurately determine the leakage location and facilitate maintenance personnel to repair the leakage of the condenser in time, the existing Chinese invention patent with announcement number CN116878758B discloses a fault detection device for air conditioner maintenance, including two end tubes, a transparent tube fixedly installed between the two end tubes, annular air bags fixedly installed at both ends of the inner wall of the transparent tube, and a connecting tube fixedly installed between the two annular air bags; the two annular air bags are inflated by the air pump and the connecting tube, so that the annular air bags expand and press against the outside of the condenser, so that a closed detection cavity is formed between the transparent tube and the annular air bags. At this time, the water pump and the fixed tube pump water in the water tank into the detection cavity and inject gas into the condenser. When there is a leak on the condenser, the leaked gas will generate bubbles in the water in the detection cavity, so that the detection personnel can observe the leakage point of the condenser through the transparent tube, facilitate the investigation and detection of the leakage point of the condenser, and facilitate the maintenance personnel to repair the leakage of the condenser.

[0003] After a long period of use, dirt easily adheres to the surface of the condenser. The accumulation of this dirt will have a certain impact on the measurement process. If the dirt is not cleaned in time before measurement, it will affect our accurate judgment of the clarity of the water in the detection cavity; specifically, when there is too much dirt on the surface of the condenser, it will make the water that should have been clear and transparent become turbid. This turbidity will not only affect our judgment of the location of bubble generation, but also make the recycling and reuse of the water more difficult.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention proposes a fault detection device for air conditioner maintenance to achieve automatic cleaning of the condenser before measurement, improve the accuracy of determining the location of bubble generation, and increase the cycle of water recovery and recycling.

The fault detection device for air conditioning maintenance involved in the present invention is not limited to the various structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-7The present invention provides a fault detection device for air conditioner maintenance, comprising a base 1, with a main body 2 mounted on the top of the base 1. The main body 2 comprises an observation tube 201, side tubes 202 movably connected to the left and right ends of the observation tube 201, and a retractable portion 203 mounted within the side tubes 202. A cleaning assembly 3 and a water supply assembly 7 are mounted on the top and bottom of the observation tube 201, respectively. A transmission assembly 4 for rotating the observation tube 201 is mounted on the inner side of the base 1, and an opening and closing assembly 5 capable of being inserted into the inner cavity of the observation tube 201 is disposed on the left and right peripheries of the base 1 and the side tubes 202. A pressure regulating component 6 for adjusting the air pressure of the retractable part 203 is installed on the front side of the base 1, and a lifting component 8 located on the periphery of the cleaning component 3 is installed on the top of the side tube 202, that is, the setting position of the lifting component 8 cannot interfere with the coaxial rotation trajectory of the observation tube 201, the cleaning component 3 and the water supply component 7. The same is true for the gap between the base 1 and the observation tube 201, and a clamping component 9 is installed on the outside of the side tube 202. The lifting component 8 is rotated to drive the clamping component 9 to tighten the condenser tube inserted inside it. A controller 10 is also installed on the base 1.

[0030] In this embodiment, it should be specifically explained that the controller 10 is used to receive the determination information output by the sensor, and output the control instructions to the actuator through analysis and processing;

[0031] The observation tube 201, the cleaning component 3 and the water supply component 7 rotate in a coaxial forward and reverse direction under the drive of the transmission component 4, and the unidirectional rotation angle does not exceed 180 degrees to prevent the water supply pipe 706 or the water delivery pipe 708 from winding. After each cleaning cycle, the cleaning component 3 and the water supply component 7 are reset to the initial state marked at Figure 3 shown.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-5 The two ends of the observation tube 201 are movably inserted into the notches of the side tube 202, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the observation tube 201 and the notch to prevent the sewage accumulated in the cleaning chamber from flowing out from the gap between the two and contaminating the multiple components arranged vertically, affecting the use. The observation tube 201 and the side tube 202 enclose a cleaning chamber;

[0033] The symmetrically distributed side tubes 202 are fixedly mounted on the top of both ends of the base 1. The side tubes 202 are provided with retractable portions 203. The retractable portions 203 are connected to the middle of the side tubes 202 by a through opening. The outer diameter of the retractable portions 203 does not exceed half the width of the side wall of the side tubes 202. This provides space for the retractable portions 203 to push the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 outward when inflated.

[0034] The retracting portion 203 includes a positioning ring 2031 and an air ring 2032, wherein the positioning ring 2031 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the side tube 202, and air rings 2032 are installed in the grooves inside and outside the positioning ring 2031. An air hole is opened between the grooves inside and outside the positioning ring 2031, and the two sides of the air hole are connected to the two air rings 2032 respectively, so as to facilitate the simultaneous increase and decrease of the pressure of the inner and outer air rings 2032. In addition, an air pressure sensor is provided in the air ring 2032 to monitor the pressure of the gas filled in the air ring 2032.

[0035] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that the width of the retractable portion 203 at least does not interfere with the vertical displacement trajectory of the brush plate 305 .

[0036] Reference Figure 2-4 and Figure 6-7 The cleaning assembly 3 includes a first protective shell 301, a first tube chamber 302, a piston rod 303, a first spring 304 and a brush plate 305, wherein the first protective shell 301 is fixedly mounted on the observation tube 201, and symmetrically distributed first tube chambers 302 are fixedly provided at the left and right ends of the inner cavity of the first protective shell 301, and a first spring 304 is provided in the inner cavity of the first tube chamber 302. The piston rod 303 is telescopically connected to the first tube chamber 302 through the first spring 304, and the bottom end of the piston rod 303 is fixedly connected to the brush plate 305. When the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 is lifted by the unexpanded air ring 2032, the brush plate 305 carried by the bottom end of the piston rod 303 touches the outer wall of the condenser tube in this section under the elastic force of the first spring 304;

[0037] The cleaning component 3 also includes a Z-shaped connecting plate 306, a pushing rod 307 and a pressure sensor 308, wherein the bottom end of the piston rod 303 is also fixedly connected to the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 extending to the top of the retracting portion 203, and the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 is located on the upper layer of the brush plate 305, and the top wall of the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 close to the retracting portion 203 is fixedly connected to the pushing rod 307, and the pushing rod 307 movably penetrates the observation tube 201, and the inner cavity of the first protective shell 301 is fixedly installed with a pressure sensor 308 located just above the pushing rod 307. As the air ring 2032 continues to inflate, the inner air ring 2032 will wrap the sealed condenser tube, and the outer air ring 2032 will carry the pushing rod 307 to press the pressure sensor 308, and finally the pressure sensor 308 detects this pressure to form a judgment information;

[0038] The transmission assembly 4 includes a first gear ring 401, a transmission gear 402 and a reversible motor 403, wherein the first gear ring 401 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the end of the observation tube 201, and the bottom of the first gear ring 401 is engaged with the transmission gear 402, the transmission gear 402 is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the reversible motor 403, and the reversible motor 403 is installed on the side wall of the base 1.

[0039] In this embodiment, it should be specifically explained that a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the push rod 307 and the observation tube 201, and its purpose is also to prevent sewage accumulated in the cleaning chamber from flowing out from the gap between the two and contaminating the multiple components arranged vertically.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 and Figure 6-7 The water supply assembly 7 includes a second protective shell 701, a second tube chamber 702, a piston tube 703 and a fourth spring 704, wherein the second protective shell 701 is fixedly mounted on the observation tube 201, the second tube chamber 702 is mounted in the middle of the inner cavity of the second protective shell 701, and the fourth spring 704 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the second tube chamber 702. The piston tube 703 is telescopically connected to the second tube chamber 702 through the fourth spring 704, and the bottom end of the second tube chamber 702 is set as a liquid chamber;

[0041] The water supply assembly 7 also includes a one-way liquid pump 705, a water supply pipe 706, a two-way liquid pump 707 and a water delivery pipe 708, wherein the one-way liquid pump 705 and the two-way liquid pump 707 are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the second pipe chamber 702, the one-way liquid pump 705 is connected to the water tank in the supply water circuit through the water supply pipe 706, and the two-way liquid pump 707 is connected to the water tank in the circulating water circuit through the water delivery pipe 708.

[0042] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that when the fourth spring 704 is at its original length, the top end of the piston tube 703 does not exceed the lowest point of the opening of the side tube 202 to avoid interfering with the movement trajectory of the isolation tube 502. In addition, the lengths of the water supply pipe 706 and the water delivery pipe 708 are set to at least meet the requirements of the water supply assembly 7 when rotating.

[0043] Characteristics of the one-way liquid pump 705: drainage and discharge functions: This pump is intelligently controlled by its internal mechanical device and can automatically switch its operating mode according to the input signal, switching from drainage state to discharge state, or vice versa;

[0044] In drainage mode, the pump draws liquid from one place and delivers it to a designated location; in drainage mode, it drains the accumulated liquid.

[0045] Reference Figure 2-6 The opening and closing assembly 5 includes an electromagnet 501, an isolation tube 502, an L-shaped connecting rod 503 and a bidirectional electric push rod 504, wherein the bidirectional electric push rod 504 is installed in the assembly cavity of the base 1, and the left and right telescopic ends of the bidirectional electric push rod 504 are fixedly connected to the electromagnet 501 through the L-shaped connecting rod 503, and the inner side of the electromagnet 501 is movably provided with an isolation tube 502;

[0046] The opening and closing assembly 5 also includes a magnetic strip 505, a plug handle 506, and a second spring 507. The magnetic strip 505 is circumferentially distributed within the side wall of the isolation tube 502. The plug handle 506 is sealed and plugged into the bottom of the isolation tube 502 near the end of the observation tube 201. The plug handle 506 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the isolation tube 502 through the second spring 507. When the bubble method is required for leak detection, the left and right telescopic ends of the bidirectional electric push rod 504 move the electromagnets 501 and the isolation tube 502 toward each other through the L-shaped connecting rod 503. The electromagnet 501 and the magnetic strip 505 are controlled to convert into magnetic repulsion, so that when the electromagnet 501 moves to the outside of the opening of the side tube 202, the isolation tubes 502 on both sides can be merged on the inner side of the retractable portion 203 under the action of this magnetic repulsion. As the air ring 2032 continues to inflate and expand, the inner air ring 2032 will eventually wrap the sealed condenser tube, and a sealed detection cavity is formed between the inner air ring 2032 and the isolation tube 502. Water is then injected into the detection cavity, and the bubble state on the surface of the condenser tube is observed to determine the leakage point.

[0047] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that the isolation tube 502 and the observation tube 201 are both made of transparent hard plastic material;

[0048] There is a communicating passage between the electromagnet 501 and the isolation tube 502 to facilitate the insertion of the condenser tube;

[0049] When the water injection inspection is completed and the control device is reset, the electromagnet 501 and the magnetic strip 505 are converted into magnetic attraction, and as the bidirectional electric push rod 504 carries the L-shaped connecting rod 503 and the electromagnet 501 outward, the isolation tube 502 is gradually pulled out of the observation tube 201 and the side tube 202 until it returns to its original position.

[0053] In addition, the device is also equipped with a scribing marking structure, which is recorded in the patents disclosed in this field, that is, the prior art, and this application will not go into details here.

[0054] Working principle of the present invention:

[0055] The detection device is put on the initial section of the condenser tube. Then, the operator holds the handle 804 to rotate the roller shaft 801 sleeved therewith, so that the coaxially arranged roller shaft 801 and the driving gear 803 rotate. The rotating driving gear 803 drives the second gear ring 903 meshing therewith to spin, so that the second gear ring 903 rotates outward along the wall thread of the base ring 901, causing the circumferentially distributed push rod 904 to be pressed by the arc-shaped extrusion cavity of the second gear ring 903 and displaced inward. Then, the fifth spring 905 sleeved on the surface of the push rod 904 is stretched until the rotating wheel 906 movably provided on the rotating seat of the push rod 904 presses against the outer wall of the condenser tube, so that the rotating wheel 906 can support the device and meet the movement requirements of the device on the surface of the condenser tube, so as to detect and troubleshoot the leakage points of the condenser tube in sections.

[0056] At the same time, the brush plate 305 carried by the bottom end of the piston rod 303 touches the outer wall of the condenser tube in this section under the elastic force of the first spring 304. After the detection device grips the outer wall of the condenser tube, the one-way liquid pump 705 connected to the supply water path is started. The one-way liquid pump 705 extracts the clean water in the water tank in the supply water path through the water supply pipe 706 in the form of standard pressure, and injects the clean water into the liquid cavity of the second tube bore 702. Then the liquid flows through the piston tube 703 and sprays to the bottom wall of the condenser tube, moistening the surface of the condenser tube, and finally drips to the bottom of the cleaning cavity surrounded by the observation tube 201 and the side tube 202. At the same time, the reversible motor 403 is started, and the output shaft of the reversible motor 403 drives The transmission gear 402 connected thereto rotates alternately forward and reverse, and the rotating transmission gear 402 drives the first gear ring 401 meshed with it, so that the first gear ring 401 carries the observation tube 201, the cleaning component 3 and the water supply component 7 coaxially and rotates 180 degrees forward and reverse, causing the rotating first spring 304 to continuously wipe and clean the wetted condenser tube surface to remove dirt attached to the condenser tube surface, providing a good test environment for subsequent bubble method leakage detection. After the cleaning of the condenser tube surface is completed, the cleaning component 3 and the water supply component 7 on the observation tube 201 are reset and stop running. At this time, the drain plug at the bottom of the observation tube 201 is pulled out to discharge the sewage retained in the cleaning chamber;

[0057] Next, the vacuum pump 604 is started. The vacuum pump 604 draws external air and injects it into the air rings 2032 inside and outside the positioning ring 2031 through the air collecting box 602 and the guide tube 603 in turn, so that the inner and outer double-layer air rings 2032 are gradually inflated and expanded, and the expanded air ring 2032 on the outer side continuously lifts the Z-shaped connecting plate 306, and then the piston rod 303 and the brush plate 305 carried by the Z-shaped connecting plate 306 move upward along the inner cavity of the first tube chamber 302 and compress the first spring 304, causing the brush plate 305 to gradually lift away from the condenser tube. When the bottom wall of the brush plate 305 exceeds the upper layer of the isolation tube 502, the air pressure in the air ring 2032 reaches the standard air pressure threshold set by the air pressure sensor. When it is determined that the isolation tube 502 can be inserted into the observation tube 201 along the opening of the side tube 202, the air pressure sensor outputs air pressure determination information to the controller 10. The controller 10 receives the air pressure determination information and outputs control instructions to the bidirectional electric push rod 504 and the electromagnet 501, controls the left and right telescopic ends of the bidirectional electric push rod 504 to move the electromagnets 501 and the isolation tube 502 on both sides toward each other through the L-shaped connecting rod 503, and controls the conversion between the electromagnet 501 and the magnetic strip 505 into a magnetic repulsive force, so that when the electromagnet 501 is displaced to the outside of the opening of the side tube 202, the isolation tubes 502 on both sides can be merged inside the retractable portion 203 under the action of this magnetic repulsive force;

[0058] As the air ring 2032 continues to inflate, the inner air ring 2032 will eventually wrap around the sealed condenser tube, and the outer air ring 2032 will carry the push rod 307 to press the pressure sensor 308. Then the pressure sensor 308 detects this pressure and determines that a sealed detection cavity has been formed between the inner air ring 2032 and the isolation tube 502. The pressure sensor 308 then outputs pressure determination information to the controller 10. The controller 10 receives the pressure determination information and outputs a control instruction to the bidirectional liquid pump 707. The bidirectional liquid pump 707 pumps liquid at high pressure through the water pipe 708. Take the water in the water tank in the circulating water circuit, and inject clean water into the liquid cavity of the second tube chamber 702. The high-pressure liquid flow pushes the piston tube 703 upward to lift the plug handle 506 in the side wall of the isolation tube 502, so that the top end of the piston tube 703 is inserted into the detection cavity and water is injected until the detection cavity is filled. The bubble state on the surface of the condenser is observed through the observation tube 201 and the electromagnet 501 to determine the leakage point. After the detection is completed, the two-way liquid pump 707 is controlled to switch the drainage direction to return the water in the detection cavity to the water tank, and then the control equipment is reset to detect and check the leakage point of the condenser in sections.
