Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioning and refrigeration, and in particular to a water circulation energy-saving device and method for air conditioning and refrigeration. Background Art
[0002] Air conditioning has become an indispensable summer heat relief device for humans in today's society. Air conditioners can be mainly divided into household air conditioners and central air conditioners. Household air conditioners are usually small in size and do not require a large cooling space. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner is usually placed on the balcony, and the outdoor unit can achieve a cooling effect by using air cooling. Large shopping malls usually use large central air conditioners. This type of air conditioner has a good cooling effect and can cover a relatively large space. At the same time, the heat released by the condenser is also huge. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner is generally placed on the roof, and the condenser is cooled by circulating the coolant. The traditional water circulation cooling method is that the coolant is directly pumped into contact with the surface of the condenser by a water pump. Since water flows downward from the surface of the condenser, when the water flows to the bottom of the condenser surface, it has absorbed part of the heat on the upper surface of the condenser surface, so that the cooling effect on the lower end of the condenser surface is not good and the cooling is uneven. At the same time, the water that has absorbed heat generally cools naturally, or uses evaporation to dissipate the heat to the outside. The cooling cycle is long and a large amount of water is required, resulting in the device occupying too much space. At the same time, the evaporation is too large, and water needs to be added frequently, which is very troublesome.
[0003] For example, the patent document with the prior art publication number CN118548532A relates to the technical field of air conditioning refrigeration water circulation, specifically an air conditioning refrigeration water circulation energy-saving device and its use method, including an air conditioning outdoor unit, and a water drawer is provided at the bottom of the air conditioning outdoor unit. This air conditioning refrigeration water circulation energy-saving device and its use method, through the air conditioning outdoor unit temperature is conducted along the pipe seat to between it and the airtight sleeve, the internal material expands due to heat, pushing the airtight sleeve downward, and using the connecting rod to drive the rod sleeve to move synchronously downward along the vertical rod, at this time, the overlapping area between the spray hole and the adjustment hole changes, that is, the overlapping area expands, so that the water output of the spray hole increases, and the increase corresponds to the temperature on the air conditioning outdoor unit. Compared with using a thermistor in combination with a magnet to control a variable frequency motor, the above-mentioned airtight sleeve and pipe seat combination realizes temperature sensing control while also avoiding the weakening of the magnet's magnetic force due to temperature changes, reducing the difficulty of maintenance and the inaccurate motor control caused by the linear reduction of the magnetic force, and having better equipment operation stability.
[0004] Although the existing technology has achieved precise control of cooling water usage based on the heat of the external unit, it has effectively avoided ineffective spraying that exceeds the actual cooling demand, and to a certain extent achieved the goals of energy saving and rational water use. However, in actual operating scenarios, as the cooling water supply continues to increase, a continuous water curtain with a certain thickness will form on the surface of the external unit. From the perspective of fluid mechanics and heat exchange principles, the existence of this water curtain will significantly change the heat exchange boundary conditions between the cooling water and the surface of the external unit. On the one hand, the water curtain will increase the contact resistance between the water flow and the surface of the external unit, hindering the transfer of heat from the external unit to the cooling water; on the other hand, the water flow speed inside the water curtain is unevenly distributed, resulting in some areas where the water flow is too fast and the contact time with the external unit surface is too short, making it impossible to fully absorb heat, while some areas where the water flow is too slow may form local heat accumulation. Combined with these factors, the efficiency of cooling water carrying heat is greatly reduced, and ultimately it is difficult for the high-temperature external unit to achieve rapid heat dissipation within the expected time. To this end, the present application proposes a water circulation energy-saving device and method for air conditioning refrigeration. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a water circulation energy-saving device and method for air conditioning refrigeration to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a water circulation energy-saving device for air conditioning refrigeration, comprising a water storage base storing cooling water and an external unit placed inside the water storage base, and further comprising:
[0007] A ring pipe is provided above the water storage base and has a cavity for storing cooling water therein. The ring pipe draws cooling water from the water storage base, and a drainage assembly is provided on the top of the ring pipe for discharging the cooling water to the surface of the external machine.
[0008] The exhaust pipe is constructed with multiple exhaust pipes that are evenly connected to the top of the ring pipe. One end of the multiple exhaust pipes is commonly connected to an air outlet strip facing the external unit. The air outlet strip is internally provided with multiple exhaust fan blades that promote the flow of gas. The exhaust pipe is internally provided with a starting component that cooperates with the drainage component to drive the exhaust fan blades to rotate;
[0009] The ventilation side panels are constructed at both ends of the water storage machine base and are provided with ventilation grooves. A plurality of fan blades for driving gas to blow toward the front of the external unit are arranged inside the ventilation side panels. A power component for driving the fan blades to rotate is arranged inside the ventilation side panels, and the power component is linked to the starting component.
[0010] Preferably, the drainage assembly includes a drain pipe connected to the bottom of the exhaust pipe and located above the ring pipe. A piston rod is slidably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe and located above the drain pipe, and the piston end of the piston rod is adapted to the inside of the exhaust pipe. The outer surface of the piston rod is provided with a sleeve spring for its own reset.
[0011] Preferably, the starting assembly includes a seesaw rotatably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe, and the end of the piston rod away from its piston end is in contact with the seesaw, the inside of the exhaust pipe is rotatably connected to an inertia wheel for driving the exhaust fan blades to rotate, and a transmission bevel is provided on the top of the inertia wheel, and the bottom of the seesaw is fixedly connected to a guide rod slidably connected to the inside of the transmission bevel.
[0012] Preferably, the power assembly includes a plurality of rack plates slidably connected to the inside of the ventilation side plate, the inside of the plurality of fan blades are fixedly connected with a rotating rod, and the outer surface of the rotating rod is connected to a gear that can engage with the rack plate through a one-way bearing, and the plurality of seesaws are commonly connected with a connecting rod, and the outer surface of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a crank that can drive the rack plate to move.
[0013] Preferably, a connecting ball is fixedly connected to the top of the rack plate, and a guide groove for sliding connection of the connecting ball is opened inside one end of the crank.
[0014] Preferably, one end of the ventilation side panel is fixedly connected to a plurality of mounting plates for supporting the rotating rods.
[0015] Preferably, a cooling pipe for cooling the cooling water is fixedly connected to the interior of the water storage machine base.
[0016] Preferably, the bottom of the annular tube is connected to a water suction pipe, and the water suction pipe extends to the bottom of the water storage machine base and is connected to the cooling water. The interior of the water suction pipe is fixedly connected to a water pump for driving the cooling water to flow.
[0017] Preferably, a support for supporting the external unit is fixedly connected to the interior of the water storage machine base.
[0018] The present invention also provides a water circulation energy-saving method for air conditioning refrigeration, comprising the following steps:
[0019] S1. When in use, place the external unit inside the water storage base and fix it;
[0020] S2. Then, by introducing cooling water into the interior of the ring pipe, the drainage assembly is operated to discharge the cooling water to the surface of the external unit to absorb its heat;
[0021] S3. At the same time, the drainage component operates in conjunction with the starting component to drive the exhaust fan blades to rotate. The rotation of the exhaust fan blades will form an airflow blowing toward the surface of the outdoor unit, thereby accelerating the cooling of the outdoor unit and promoting the flow of cooling water on the surface of the outdoor unit;
[0022] S4. At the same time, when the starting component is running, it will drive the power component to run and make the fan blades rotate to form a stable airflow blowing toward the surface of the external unit, so that the cooling water falling on the surface of the external unit is swept and cooled by the airflow after absorbing heat and absorbs the heat of the surface of the external unit again.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] 1. When cooling water accumulates in the annular tube, the piston rod in the drain assembly is pushed over the drain pipe, instantly releasing the cooling water and impacting the exterior unit. This impact expands the cooling water's dispersion area and increases its adhesion surface, allowing the cooling water to more fully contact the exterior unit, absorb more heat, and improve cooling efficiency. Once the cooling water pushes the piston rod over the drain pipe, the water flow decreases, reducing the thrust. The piston rod, activated by the sleeve spring, resets, stopping the drain. This intermittent draining method prevents continuous and excessive cooling water discharge, significantly conserving water resources and improving cooling water utilization. In the starting assembly, when the piston rod is forced to move, the seesaw tilts, driving the guide rod within the inertia wheel's transmission chute, rotating the inertia wheel and, in turn, rotating the exhaust fan blades. This rotation creates a downward airflow directly onto the exterior unit's surface, accelerating air flow over the exterior unit, enhancing heat convection, and improving heat dissipation efficiency. The airflow generated by the exhaust fan blades also promotes the rapid flow of cooling water across the exterior unit's surface. The rapid flow of cooling water across the surface of the outdoor unit promptly removes absorbed heat, preventing localized heat accumulation on the surface. This further enhances the heat dissipation effect, allowing the high-temperature outdoor unit to quickly dissipate heat and maintain stable operation of the air conditioning and refrigeration system. The inertia wheel drives the exhaust fan blades to rotate continuously as it rotates. Even after the piston rod resets and no longer applies pressure to the seesaw, the exhaust fan blades continue to rotate under the action of the inertia wheel, ensuring stable airflow output and continuous heat dissipation to the outdoor unit. After the piston rod resets, it cannot contact the seesaw, which resets it and pushes the inertia wheel back to its original position, preparing for the next rotation of the exhaust fan blades. This reset mechanism enables the device to operate cyclically and stably, improving its reliability and service life.
[0025] 2. The fan blades inside the ventilation side panel rotate under the drive of the power component to form an airflow, which blows tangentially to the surface of the external unit. This allows the cooling water flowing down from the top of the external unit to be blown by the airflow for heat dissipation after absorbing heat. On the one hand, the temperature of the cooling water itself is reduced, and it can continue to absorb heat from the surface of the external unit, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cooling water; on the other hand, it prevents the cooling water from evaporating rapidly due to high temperature, reduces the loss of cooling water, and reduces operating costs. In the power component, the rack plate and the gear are matched through a one-way bearing, so that the fan blades rotate in one direction to form a stable airflow. The stable airflow can continuously take away the heat from the surface of the external unit, enhance the heat dissipation effect, ensure that the external unit operates at an appropriate temperature, and extend the service life of the external unit. Multiple mounting plates fixedly connected at one end of the ventilation side panel are used to support the rotating rod of the fan blades, ensuring the stability of the fan blade installation. At the same time, the combination of the connecting ball and the guide groove effectively pulls the rack plate to move. The rack plate, driven by its own weight, resets the crank, which in turn resets the seesaw. This ensures stable operation of the entire power assembly and reduces the possibility of malfunctions. The power assembly operates in sync with the rotation of the exhaust fan blades and the drainage of the drain pipe. When the drain pipe is intermittently draining and cooling water impacts the surface of the outdoor unit, the exhaust fan blades and the blades inside the ventilation side panels rotate simultaneously to create an airflow. The exhaust fan blades blow air from top to bottom, tangentially to the surface of the outdoor unit. The two blades work together to dissipate heat from different angles on the surface of the outdoor unit, greatly improving the cooling efficiency of the outdoor unit, enabling rapid cooling and maintaining stable operation of the air conditioning and refrigeration system. The airflow generated by the exhaust fan blades pushes the cooling water rapidly across the surface of the outdoor unit, while the airflow generated by the blades inside the ventilation side panels dissipates the heat from the cooling water after it has absorbed it, removing it again from the surface of the outdoor unit. The synergistic effect of these two airflows not only accelerates the flow of cooling water, allowing it to more fully absorb heat from the outdoor unit, but also promptly removes the absorbed heat, further enhancing the heat dissipation effect and improving the efficiency of cooling water utilization.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The present invention provides a technical solution: a water circulation energy-saving device for air conditioning refrigeration, comprising a water storage base 100 for storing cooling water and an external unit 101 placed inside the water storage base 100, a support 102 for supporting the external unit 101 fixedly connected to the interior of the water storage base 100, a cold pipe 203 for cooling the cooling water fixedly connected to the interior of the water storage base 100, the support 102 can be provided to support the external unit 101 so that its position is higher than the height of the cooling water in the water storage base 100, and its surface is immersed in the cooling water, and the cold pipe 203 can be provided to cool the cooling water, thereby improving its cooling efficiency.
[0039] See also Figure 5-Figure 7, also includes a ring pipe 200, which is arranged above the water storage machine base 100 and has a cavity for storing cooling water therein, and the ring pipe 200 draws cooling water from the water storage machine base 100, and the bottom of the ring pipe 200 is connected to a water suction pipe 201, and the water suction pipe 201 extends to the bottom of the water storage machine base 100 and is connected to the cooling water, and the interior of the water suction pipe 201 is fixedly connected to a water pump 202 for driving the flow of cooling water, and the top of the ring pipe 200 is provided with a drainage component for discharging cooling water to the surface of the external machine 101. By setting the drainage component, the cooling water can be discharged to the surface of the external machine 101 for absorbing heat. At the same time, intermittent discharge of the drainage component can reduce waste, thereby improving utilization.
[0040] It also includes an exhaust pipe 300, which is constructed with multiple exhaust pipes 300 that are evenly connected to the top of the ring pipe 200. One end of the multiple exhaust pipes 300 is commonly connected to an air outlet strip 307 facing the external unit 101. The air outlet strip 307 is internally provided with multiple exhaust fan blades 301 for promoting the flow of gas. The exhaust pipe 300 is internally provided with a starting component for driving the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate. By setting the starting component, the exhaust fan blades 301 can be driven to rotate to form an airflow, so that the airflow blows from top to bottom toward the surface of the external unit 101, and while cooling it, carries cooling water to flow rapidly on the surface of the external unit 101, thereby quickly carrying heat to dissipate heat to the external unit 101.
[0041] Furthermore, the drainage assembly includes a drain pipe 204 connected to the bottom of the exhaust pipe 300 and located above the annular pipe 200. A piston rod 205 is slidably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 300 and located above the drain pipe 204, and the piston end of the piston rod 205 is adapted to the inside of the exhaust pipe 300. The outer surface of the piston rod 205 is provided with a sleeve spring 206 for its own reset. By setting the piston rod 205, the cooling water in the annular pipe 200 can be prevented from being discharged through the drain pipe 204. As the amount of cooling water increases, the piston rod 205 will be pushed over the drain pipe 204 for the cooling water to be discharged under force. At this time, the cooling water is subjected to a large pressure and is instantly released and discharged, which will impact the surface of the external unit 101 and expand its divergence area, thereby increasing the attachment area on the surface of the external unit 101. Intermittent drainage can improve the utilization of cooling water.
[0042] Furthermore, the starting component includes a seesaw 304 rotatably connected to the inside of the exhaust pipe 300, and the end of the piston rod 205 away from its piston end is in conflict with the seesaw 304. The exhaust pipe 300 is internally rotatably connected to an inertia wheel 302 for driving the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate, and a transmission bevel 303 is provided on the top of the inertia wheel 302. The bottom of the seesaw 304 is fixedly connected to a guide rod 305 slidably connected to the inside of the transmission bevel 303. By setting the transmission bevel 303 and the guide rod 305, the exhaust fan blades 301 are driven to rotate when the seesaw 304 is tilted under force, and the inertia wheel 302 can drive the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate continuously during rotation, and will not affect the normal rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301 after it is reset.
[0043] Specifically, by turning on the water pump 202, the cooling water in the water suction pipe 201 is driven to flow and enter the interior of the annular pipe 200. The water suction pipe 201 absorbs cooling water from the interior of the water storage base 100. When the cooling water in the annular pipe 200 gradually increases, it will push the piston rod 205 to move and pass over the drain pipe 204, so that the cooling water is discharged to the surface of the external unit 101 through the drain pipe 204, and then flows down according to gravity to absorb the heat on the surface of the external unit 101. At the same time, when the piston rod 205 is forced to move, it will push the seesaw 304 to tilt, thereby driving the guide rod 305 to move inside the transmission chute 303, so that it drives the inertia wheel 30 2 rotates, thereby driving the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate. The rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301 will form an airflow blowing toward the surface of the outdoor unit 101, thereby accelerating the cooling of the outdoor unit 101 and promoting the flow rate of cooling water on the surface of the outdoor unit 101. At the same time, when the cooling water pushes the piston rod 205 to cross the drain pipe 204, the discharge of water will reduce the thrust, so that the piston rod 205 is reset under the action of the sleeve spring 206, thereby achieving intermittent drainage and saving water resources. The reset of the piston rod 205 will not be able to resist the seesaw 304, so that it will also reset, thereby pushing the inertia wheel 302 to reset, preparing for the next transmission of the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate.
[0044] In summary, when the amount of cooling water in the annular tube 200 increases, the piston rod 205 in the drainage assembly is pushed over the drain pipe 204, causing the cooling water to be instantly released and discharged, impacting the surface of the external unit 101. This impact action can expand the cooling water's divergence area and increase its adhesion area on the surface of the external unit 101, thereby allowing the cooling water to more fully contact the external unit 101, absorb more heat, and improve the cooling effect. When the cooling water pushes the piston rod 205 over the drain pipe 204, the water flow rate decreases, and the thrust also decreases. The piston rod 205 resets under the action of the sleeve spring 206, thereby stopping the drainage. This intermittent drainage method avoids the continuous and excessive discharge of cooling water, greatly saves water resources, and improves the utilization rate of cooling water. In the starting assembly, when the piston rod 205 is forced to move and push the seesaw 304 to tilt, it drives the guide rod 305 to move in the transmission chute 303 of the inertia wheel 302, driving the inertia wheel 302 to rotate, and then driving the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate. The exhaust fan blades 301 rotate to form an airflow from top to bottom, which blows directly onto the surface of the external unit 101, accelerating the air flow on the surface of the external unit 101, enhancing heat convection, and improving heat dissipation efficiency. The airflow formed by the exhaust fan blades 301 can also promote the rapid flow of cooling water on the surface of the external unit 101. The rapid flow of cooling water on the surface of the outdoor unit 101 can promptly carry away the absorbed heat, preventing heat from locally accumulating on the surface of the outdoor unit 101, further enhancing the heat dissipation effect, enabling the high-temperature outdoor unit 101 to quickly dissipate heat and maintain the stable operation of the air conditioning and refrigeration system. The inertia wheel 302 can drive the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate continuously when rotating. Even if the piston rod 205 no longer applies pressure to the seesaw 304 after it is reset, the exhaust fan blades 301 can continue to rotate under the action of the inertia wheel 302, ensuring the stable output of airflow and the continuity of heat dissipation for the outdoor unit 101. After the piston rod 205 is reset, it cannot contact the seesaw 304, and the seesaw 304 is also reset and pushes the inertia wheel 302 to reset, preparing for the next rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301. This reset mechanism enables the device to operate cyclically and stably, improving the reliability and service life of the device.
[0045] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 4 as well as Figures 8-10 The present invention also provides a technical solution, which is different from the technical solution of embodiment 1: a water circulation energy-saving device for air conditioning and refrigeration, which also includes a ventilation side plate 400, which is constructed at both ends of the water storage base 100 and has a ventilation groove. The interior of the ventilation side plate 400 is provided with a plurality of fan blades 405 that drive gas to blow toward the front of the external unit 101. The interior of the ventilation side plate 400 is provided with a power component that drives the fan blades 405 to rotate. By setting the power component, the fan blades 405 can be synchronously driven to rotate to form an airflow, which blows toward the surface of the external unit 101 in a tangential manner, so that the cooling water flowing down from the top of the external unit 101 absorbs heat and is blown by the airflow to dissipate heat, thereby improving its utilization rate and preventing it from evaporating at high temperature.
[0046] Furthermore, the power assembly includes a plurality of rack plates 406 slidably connected to the inside of the ventilation side panel 400, a plurality of fan blades 405 are fixedly connected to the inside of each of the plurality of fan blades 405, and the outer surface of the rotating rod is connected to a gear 404 that can mesh with the rack plate 406 through a one-way bearing, a connecting rod 306 is commonly connected between the plurality of seesaws 304, and the outer surface of the connecting rod 306 is fixedly connected to a crank 408 that can drive the rack plate 406 to move. By setting the coordination between the rack plate 406 and the gear 404, the fan blades 405 can be continuously driven to rotate, and at the same time, the power assembly and the rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301 and the drainage of the drain pipe 204 operate synchronously, thereby improving the cooling of the external unit 101.
[0047] Among them, the top of the rack plate 406 is fixedly connected with a bead 407, and a guide groove 409 for the sliding connection of the bead 407 is opened inside one end of the crank 408. One end of the ventilation side panel 400 is fixedly connected with multiple mounting plates 403 for supporting the rotating rod. By setting the cooperation between the bead 407 and the guide groove 409, the rack plate 406 can be effectively pulled to move, and the rack plate 406 can drive the crank 408 to reset according to its own weight, so that the seesaw 304 is reset.
[0048] Specifically, when the seesaw 304 swings back and forth, the transmission connecting rod 306 rotates back and forth, thereby driving one end of the fan blade 405 to move up and down, thereby pulling the rack plate 406 back and forth, so that the rack plate 406 and the gear 404 are meshed back and forth, and the gear 404 is connected to the mounting plate 403 through a one-way bearing. During the meshing process with the rack plate 406, the fan blade 405 will rotate unidirectionally to form a stable airflow blowing toward the surface of the external unit 101, so that the cooling water falling on the surface of the external unit 101 will be swept and cooled by the airflow after absorbing heat and absorb the heat from the surface of the external unit 101 again. At the same time, the airflow will also take away the heat from the surface of the external unit 101. Under the action of the air guide plate 401, the airflow is guided to be discharged from both sides of the water storage machine base 100 to form a fast-flowing airflow, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0049] In summary, the fan blades 405 inside the ventilation side panel 400 rotate under the drive of the power component to form an airflow, and the airflow blows tangentially toward the surface of the external unit 101. This allows the cooling water flowing down from the top of the external unit 101 to be blown by the airflow for heat dissipation after absorbing heat. On the one hand, the temperature of the cooling water itself is reduced, and it can continue to absorb the heat from the surface of the external unit 101, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cooling water; on the other hand, it prevents the cooling water from evaporating rapidly due to high temperature, reduces the loss of cooling water, and reduces operating costs. In the power component, the rack plate 406 and the gear 404 are matched through a one-way bearing, so that the fan blades 405 rotate in one direction to form a stable airflow. The stable airflow can continuously take away the heat from the surface of the external unit 101, enhance the heat dissipation effect, ensure that the external unit 101 operates at an appropriate temperature, and extend the service life of the external unit 101. The multiple mounting plates 403 fixedly connected at one end of the ventilation side panel 400 are used to support the rotating rod of the fan blades 405, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation of the fan blades 405. At the same time, the combination of beads 407 and guide grooves 409 effectively pulls rack plate 406 to move. Rack plate 406 can drive crank 408 to reset due to its own weight, thereby resetting rocker 304. The entire power assembly operates stably, reducing the probability of failure. The power assembly operates synchronously with the rotation of exhaust fan blades 301 and the drainage of drain pipe 204. When drain pipe 204 intermittently drains water and the cooling water impacts the surface of outdoor unit 101, exhaust fan blades 301 and blades 405 in ventilation side panel 400 rotate simultaneously to form airflow. The exhaust fan blades 301 blow the airflow from top to bottom, and the fan blades 405 blow the airflow in a tangential manner. The two cooperate with each other to dissipate heat from the surface of the external unit 101 from different angles, greatly improving the cooling efficiency of the external unit 101, enabling the external unit 101 to cool down quickly and maintain the stable operation of the air conditioning and refrigeration system. The airflow formed by the exhaust fan blades 301 pushes the cooling water to flow rapidly on the surface of the external unit 101, while the airflow formed by the fan blades 405 inside the ventilation side panel 400 blows the cooling water that has absorbed heat to dissipate heat and again remove the heat from the surface of the external unit 101. The synergistic effect of the two airflows not only accelerates the flow of cooling water, allowing it to more fully contact the external unit 101 to absorb heat, but also promptly removes the absorbed heat, further enhancing the heat dissipation effect and improving the utilization efficiency of the cooling water.
[0050] Example 3: Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The present invention also provides a technical solution, which is different from the technical solution of embodiment 1: a water circulation energy-saving method for air conditioning refrigeration, comprising the following steps:
[0051] S1. When in use, place the external unit 101 inside the water storage unit base 100 and fix it above the multiple supports 102;
[0052] S2. Then, the water pump 202 is turned on to drive the cooling water in the water suction pipe 201 to flow into the interior of the annular pipe 200. The water suction pipe 201 draws cooling water from the interior of the water storage base 100. As the cooling water gradually increases in the annular pipe 200, it pushes the piston rod 205 to move over the drain pipe 204, so that the cooling water is discharged to the surface of the external unit 101 through the drain pipe 204, and then flows down by gravity to absorb heat from the surface of the external unit 101.
[0053] S3. At the same time, when the piston rod 205 is moved by force, it will push the seesaw 304 to tilt, thereby driving the guide rod 305 to move inside the transmission inclined slot 303, so that it drives the inertia wheel 302 to rotate, thereby driving the exhaust fan blades 301 to rotate. The rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301 will form an air flow to the surface of the outdoor unit 101, thereby accelerating the cooling of the outdoor unit 101 and promoting the flow speed of the cooling water on the surface of the outdoor unit 101. At the same time, when the cooling water pushes the piston rod 205 to cross the drain pipe 204, the discharge of the water flow will reduce the thrust, so that the piston rod 205 is reset under the action of the sleeve spring 206, thereby achieving intermittent drainage and saving water resources. The reset of the piston rod 205 will not be able to conflict with the seesaw 304, so that it will also reset, thereby pushing the inertia wheel 302 to reset, preparing for the next rotation of the exhaust fan blades 301.
[0054] S4. When the seesaw 304 swings back and forth, the transmission connecting rod 306 rotates back and forth, thereby driving one end of the fan blade 405 to move up and down, thereby pulling the rack plate 406 back and forth, so that the rack plate 406 and the gear 404 are meshed back and forth, and the gear 404 is connected to the mounting plate 403 through a one-way bearing. During the meshing process with the rack plate 406, the fan blade 405 will rotate unidirectionally to form a stable airflow blowing toward the surface of the external unit 101, so that the cooling water falling on the surface of the external unit 101 will be swept and cooled by the airflow after absorbing heat and absorb the heat from the surface of the external unit 101 again. At the same time, the airflow will also take away the heat from the surface of the external unit 101. Under the action of the air guide plate 401, the airflow is guided to be discharged from both sides of the water storage machine base 100 to form a fast-flowing airflow, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
