[0041] Reference Figure 1-8 ,
[0042] An adsorption-type dehumidification and evaporative cooling device includes: a main body 1, a fan 4, and a drying device 2.
[0043] The main body 1 is a shell, and it includes an installation chamber 11 for mounting the condenser 8, a drying chamber communicating with the installation chamber 11, an air inlet 13 communicating with the drying chamber, and an air outlet 14 communicating with the installation chamber 11. A fan 4 is located at the air outlet 14. The fan 4 draws in outside air from the air inlet 13 into the installation chamber 11, using the airflow to dissipate heat and cool the condenser 8. A drying device 2 is located in the drying chamber, used to dry the outside air so that it comes into contact with the condenser 8 in a dry state. The main body 1 also includes a water storage chamber 15, in which water is pumped downwards from above the condenser 8 by a drive pump 5. The water spraying onto the condenser 8, combined with the flowing air blowing onto it, provides both air cooling and water cooling. Furthermore, the air evaporates the water on the condenser 8, and this evaporation absorbs heat, further enhancing the cooling effect. By using dry air to contact the condenser 8, the dry air can accelerate the evaporation rate of water, thereby further increasing the cooling effect on the condenser 8.
[0044] Specifically, the air outlet 14 is perpendicular to the air inlet 13.
[0045] Specifically, the water storage chamber 15 is located below the mounting chamber 11, and the water storage chamber 15 is connected to the mounting chamber 11. This allows water to spray onto the condenser 8 and then flow back into the water storage chamber 15. A water tank is installed in the water storage chamber 15, and the water tank is slidable from the water storage chamber 15, allowing the water tank to be removed for filling. This facilitates filling the water storage chamber 15 after the water is used up, and also allows the water tank to be removed for cleaning.
[0046] Specifically, the drying device 2 includes: a transmission roller 21, a transmission belt 22, and a power structure 23; two sets of transmission rollers 21 are provided, and the transmission belt 22 is wound around the two sets of transmission rollers 21; the power structure 23 is used to drive the transmission rollers 21 to rotate; a drying component for dehumidification is provided on the transmission belt 22; and multiple through holes 221 are provided on the transmission belt 22. The power structure 23 uses a motor, and the power mechanism drives the transmission belt 22 for transmission. The drying component can directly use bagged desiccant, which allows air to pass through and be dried. Multiple bagged desiccants are placed on the transmission belt 22, so that multiple bagged desiccants can evenly contact and dehumidify the air, and the movement of the transmission belt 22 will also cause the particles in the bagged desiccant to exchange positions due to inertia, thus better contacting the particles in the bagged desiccant with the air.
[0047] Alternatively, the drying component can also employ an adsorption regeneration dehumidification device to dry the air. This adsorption regeneration dehumidification device utilizes existing technology and will not be elaborated upon.
[0048] Specifically, the transmission belt 22 covers the air inlet 13 so that outdoor air enters the mounting chamber 11 after passing through the drying component on the transmission belt 22. The side of the transmission belt 22 is inclined to the air intake direction of the air inlet 13 to increase the contact area between the drying component and the air.
[0049] Specifically, the water storage chamber 15 is externally connected to a water supply pipe 6. The water supply pipe 6 is connected to an external water source, which facilitates the replenishment of water to the water storage chamber 15.
[0050] Specifically, a flexible filter structure 3 is provided on the transmission belt 22. The flexible filter structure 3 can filter dust and impurities in the air, preventing excessive dust from entering the mounting chamber 11 and adhering to the condenser 8, thus ensuring better direct contact between the condenser 8 and air or water, thereby improving the cooling or heat exchange effect of the condenser 8. The flexible filter structure 3 can be a flexible filter screen.
[0051] Specifically, a partition 12 is provided in the drying chamber, dividing the chamber into a first drying chamber 16 and a second drying chamber 17. A conveyor belt 22 is disposed in both the first drying chamber 16 and the second drying chamber 17. The second drying chamber 17 is equipped with a processing component for regenerating the drying components.
[0052] The first drying chamber 16 is connected to the air inlet 13, and the second drying chamber 17 is in a closed state. A passage is provided on the partition 12, and the transmission belt 22 passes through the passage to drive between the first drying chamber 16 and the second drying chamber 17.
[0053] When bagged desiccant is used in the drying component, a hot air blower 74 can be used in the processing component. The hot air blower 74 blows hot air onto the bagged desiccant located in the second drying processing chamber 17, which can blow away some of the moisture on the bagged desiccant and maintain the bagged desiccant for a longer service life.
[0054] When the drying component uses an adsorption-regeneration dehumidification device, the adsorption-regeneration dehumidification device has an adsorption section and a regeneration section. The adsorption section is located in the first drying chamber 16, and the regeneration section is located in the second drying chamber 17.
[0055] In other embodiments, the flexible filter structure 3 includes multiple sets of connecting rods 31, which are sequentially hinged and arranged along the track of the transmission belt 22. Each set of connecting rods 31 has two rods, located at both ends of the transmission belt 22. A flexible filter screen 32 is disposed between each set of connecting rods 31, and multiple flexible filter screens 32 are connected. A guide member 33 is disposed within the transmission belt 22, the guide member 33 having a guide surface 331 and a protruding surface 332. The connecting rod 31 abuts against the guide surface 331 and the protruding surface 332; the protruding surface 332 protrudes outward relative to the guide surface 331; the connecting rod 31 is directly or indirectly connected to the transmission belt 22.
[0056] In the specific design, a connection point is provided on the connecting rod 31, and the connection point is fixed to the transmission belt 22. The connection point is a protrusion formed on the connecting rod 31. Thus, multiple hinged connecting rods 31 will move as the transmission belt 22 moves. The connection between the connecting rods 31 is due to the fact that multiple connecting rods 31 are connected to the transmission belt 22, forming a hinge. The transmission belt 22 acts as a rope, like two rods connected by a rope; the connection between them is a hinge.
[0057] The flexible filter screen 32 is elastic. A hot air blower 74 is installed at the end of the transmission belt 22, located in the empty section in the middle of the transmission belt 22. The hot air blower 74 blows hot air from the inside to the outside of the transmission belt 22. The guide member 33 is a ring plate, and the protruding surface 332 on the guide member 33 is positioned at the location of the hot air blower 74. When the connecting rod 31 moves to the position of the protruding surface 332, the connecting rod 31 is guided outward by the protruding surface 332, thereby increasing the distance between the two connecting rods 31. The flexible filter screen 32 is stretched, and the filter pores on the flexible filter screen 32 become larger. This allows the dust and impurities filtered by the flexible filter screen 32 to be blown outward by the hot air blower 74, achieving self-cleaning of the flexible filter screen 32.
[0058] The above description is merely a selection of preferred embodiments of this disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention involved in the embodiments of this disclosure is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described inventive concept.
