Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of dehumidifiers, in particular to a novel horizontal dehumidifier. BACKGROUND

[0002] Traditional horizontal dehumidifiers have certain limitations in structural design, resulting in two significant technical defects in actual operation.

[0003] On the one hand, the internal cavity of the machine shell is mostly designed as a simple regular channel. When the airflow flows through components such as evaporators and condensers, there is a lack of effective buffering and flow guiding mechanism. The high-speed airflow in the narrow cavity directly impacts the cavity wall to form turbulence, and the mechanical vibration of the compressor and other components is conducted, resulting in a large equipment operation noise, affecting the user experience.

[0004] On the other hand, the condensate produced by the evaporator during the dehumidification process is usually directly collected and discharged, and is not effectively utilized. The surface of the evaporator condenses a large amount of water vapor due to continuous heat exchange, and the surface temperature rises slightly, resulting in a decrease in the condensation efficiency of subsequent humid air, thereby increasing the energy consumption of the compressor. The existing design does not combine the condensate with the heat dissipation demand of the evaporator, resulting in secondary waste of energy and loss of dehumidification efficiency.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the left and right inner walls of the lower casing 16 are both provided with the first flow guide structure 162, the first flow guide structure 162 is an arc-shaped protrusion protruding inward from the inner side wall of the lower casing 16, and the first flow guide structure 162 is arranged in the lower region of the second chamber 12 along the airflow direction, so that the left and right widths of the lower region of the second chamber 12 change according to a predetermined rule; in this embodiment, the first flow guide structure 162 and the lower casing 16 are an integral structure, the height of the first flow guide structure 162 protruding inward from the inner side wall of the lower casing 16 first increases and then decreases along the airflow direction, and the highest point is located in the middle of the length direction of the second chamber 12, so that the left and right widths of the second chamber 12 are smallest in the middle and gradually expand towards the front and rear ends, forming a flow guide curved surface to reduce the wind resistance.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 4 to 5 As shown in the figure, wherein: The left inner wall of the upper shell 15 is provided with a second flow guide structure 152, which is an arc-shaped protrusion formed by protruding inward from the left inner wall of the upper shell 15. The curvature of the second flow guide structure 152 is the same as that of the first flow guide structure 162, and the second flow guide structure 152 is arranged in the upper region of the second chamber 12 along the airflow direction. In this embodiment, the second flow guide structure 152 is an integral structure with the upper shell 15, and the height of the second flow guide structure 152 protruding inward from the inner wall of the upper shell 15 first increases and then decreases along the airflow direction, with the highest point located in the middle of the length direction of the second chamber 12. The curvature of the second flow guide structure 152 is the same as that of the first flow guide structure 162, so that the flow guide curves of the upper and lower parts of the second chamber 12 are consistent, avoiding vortex flow caused by turbulent airflow and reducing noise.

[0029] The electric control box 71 is arranged on the right inner wall of the upper shell 15, and the outer side of the electric control box 71 close to the left inner wall of the upper shell 15 is arranged as an arc surface. The curvature of the arc surface is the same as that of the first flow guide structure 162. In this embodiment, the box body of the electric control box 71 is designed with waterproof sealing, and the electric control box 71 is installed in the upper part of the second chamber 12, which can prevent the condensed water in the lower part from splashing into the electric control box 71 under the disturbance of the airflow. In order to align the arc surface of the electric control box 71 with the first flow guide structure 162 below, the right inner wall of the upper shell 15 is arranged as a plane, and sufficient space is reserved for installing the electric control box 71.

[0030] The second flow guide structure 152 is arranged opposite to the arc surface and cooperates with the arc surface to change the left and right widths of the upper part of the second chamber 12 according to a predetermined rule, form a flow guide curve, and reduce wind resistance.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the inner bottom wall of the lower shell 16 is provided with a plurality of partition strips 163, which are an integral structure with the lower shell 16. The plurality of partition strips 163 divide the inner bottom wall into: A first mounting slot 164 is located at one end of the second chamber 12 close to the first chamber 11, and is used to mount the evaporator assembly 3. The evaporator assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the lower shell 16 through bolts and mounting brackets 169. The evaporator assembly 3 is suspended in the first mounting slot 164, and the bottom of the evaporator assembly 3 does not contact the bottom wall of the first mounting slot 164, so as to avoid that the evaporator assembly 3 blocks the flow direction of the condensed water generated thereby; A second mounting slot 165 is located between the first mounting slot 164 and the third mounting slot 166, and is used to mount the compressor assembly 5. The compressor assembly 5 is mounted in the second mounting slot 165 through a shock-absorbing pad 51 and a shock-absorbing bottom plate 52.

The water storage tank 167 is located between the first installation groove 164 and the third installation groove 166, and is used for collecting the condensate water generated by the evaporator assembly 3. Since the space required by the compressor assembly 5 is smaller than the space required by the evaporator assembly 3 and the condenser assembly 4, the water storage tank 167 is divided by the partition strip 163 at the side of the second installation groove 165. The water storage tank 167 can not only reasonably utilize the space, but also can be closer to the evaporator assembly 3, so that the water circulation assembly 6 can spray the condensate water collected in the water storage tank 167 to the evaporator assembly 3. The first installation groove 164 and the second installation groove 165 are in communication, the second installation groove 165 and the water storage tank 167 are in communication, the third installation groove 166 and the water storage tank 167 are in communication, and the bottom wall height of the water storage tank 167 is lower than the bottom wall heights of the first installation groove 164, the second installation groove 165 and the third installation groove 166.

The condensate water generated by the evaporator assembly 3 falls into the first installation groove 164, and then flows into the second installation groove 165 through the water passage, and then flows into the water storage tank 167. The bottom wall heights of the installation grooves are all greater than the bottom wall height of the water storage tank 167, so that the bottom wall of the water storage tank 167 is the lowest, and the condensate water finally flows into the water storage tank 167.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the water circulation assembly 6 comprises: The first water pump 61 is a micro water pump suitable for small flow and high lift requirements. The material of the first water pump 61 needs to have good corrosion resistance to adapt to the water quality environment of the condensate water. The first water pump 61 is electrically connected with the electric control box 71, and is fixed on the installation bracket 169 in the middle part of the evaporator assembly 3 through a screw. The first water pump 61 is connected with the water tray 62 and the water storage tank 167 through water pipes respectively, and is used for conveying the condensate water in the water storage tank 167 to the water tray 62. The water spraying disc 62 is a conventional water spraying disc 62, which is installed on the top of the evaporator assembly 3 through a support, and the structure size of the water spraying disc 62 is adapted to the vertical projection structure of the evaporator assembly 3. The bottom of the water spraying disc 62 is provided with a plurality of water spraying holes, and the water spraying disc 62 is used for spraying condensed water to the evaporator assembly 3 to cool the evaporator assembly 3. The first water level switch 63 is an electrode type water level switch, which is installed in the water storage tank 167 through the mounting plate 67 and is signal connected with the electric control box 71. The first water level switch 63 is used for monitoring whether the water level of the water storage tank 167 reaches a preset spraying water level, and triggering the electric control box 71 to control the first water pump 61 to start and stop working.

[0033] In the embodiment, the mounting plate 67 is bent along the length direction to form a structure with a concave middle part and convex two ends. The two ends are respectively placed on the partition strips 163 at the two ends of the water storage tank 167 towards the evaporator assembly 3 and the condenser assembly 4, and are fixed through bolts. The first water level switch 63 and the second water pump 64 are installed on the concave part of the mounting plate 67, and the second water level switch 65 is installed on the convex part of one end of the mounting plate 67. The first water level switch 63 and the second water level switch 65 are installed with a height difference, and can respectively accurately monitor different water levels in the water storage tank 167. The first water level switch 63 at the low position can timely start the first water pump 61 to supply water, and the second water level switch 65 at the high position controls the second water pump 64 to drain water when the water level is too high, so as to realize the hierarchical and accurate control of the water level, guarantee the stable and efficient operation of the water circulation system, and avoid the problems of insufficient water or overflow.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the water circulation assembly 6 further comprises: The second water pump 64 is also a corrosion-resistant micro water pump, and the flow rate and lift parameters thereof are reasonably selected according to the rate of discharging excess water required by the dehumidifier, and the length and height difference of the drainage path. The second water pump 64 is electrically connected with the electric control box 71, and is installed above the water storage tank 167 through the mounting plate 67. The second water pump 64 is connected with the water storage tank 167 and the outside of the dehumidifier through a water pipe, and is used for discharging excess condensed water in the water storage tank 167 to the outside of the dehumidifier. Since the preset discharge water level is higher than the preset spraying water level, the second water level switch 65 is installed on the water storage tank 167 and the installation height thereof is greater than that of the first water level switch 63. The second water level switch 65 is also an electrode type water level switch, which is arranged above the water storage tank 167 through the mounting plate 66 and is signal connected with the electric control box 71. The second water level switch 65 is used for monitoring whether the water level of the water storage tank 167 reaches the preset discharge water level, and triggering the electric control box 71 to control the second water pump 64 to start and stop working. The specific values of the preset spraying water level and the preset discharge water level are determined according to the depth of the water storage tank 167, and the depth of the water storage tank 167 is determined according to the size of the dehumidifier.

[0035] When the water level in the water storage tank 167 is lower than the first water level switch 63, the first water pump 61 stops; when the water level is higher than the first water level switch 63 and lower than the second water level switch 65, the first water pump 61 starts to spray; when the water level is higher than the second water level switch 65, the second water pump 64 starts to drain water.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the temperature sensor 8 is also included, which is signal connected with the electric control box 71 and installed at the air outlet 14. The temperature sensor 8 is used to sense the temperature of the dry air heated by the condenser assembly 4.
