[0004] Patent document with application number "CN201721798462.8" discloses a dual-evaporator dehumidification heat pump unit, comprising a swimming pool. The swimming pool includes a compressor, a four-way valve, a first heat exchanger, a throttling valve, and a second heat exchanger. The compressor, four-way valve, first heat exchanger, throttling valve, and second heat exchanger are sequentially connected via refrigerant pipes to form a refrigerant circulation loop. Indoor air from the swimming pool is drawn to the compressor by a fan. The pool's drain outlet is connected to the first heat exchanger via a circulation pump and a sand filter. The first heat exchanger delivers heated water to the pool's inlet. An indoor evaporator with an input terminal connected to an indoor solenoid valve is located between the throttling valve and the compressor. An air filter and an outdoor evaporator are connected between the fan and the compressor. The outdoor evaporator is connected to the throttling valve via an outdoor solenoid valve, and the compressor's outlet is connected to the condenser.

Specifically, the energy-saving heat pump unit further includes a sixth shut-off valve 15, and the connection point of the three parallel lines is connected to the second outlet of the plate heat exchanger 11 through the sixth shut-off valve 15.

[0027] In a first aspect of the present invention, as a preferred embodiment, the energy-saving heat pump unit further includes an electric fan 25, which is disposed on the side of the condenser 24 to improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0028] In a first aspect of the invention, as a preferred embodiment, the energy-saving heat pump unit further includes a unit return air temperature sensor 14, which is disposed on the connection line between the first outlet and the demanding equipment. The energy-saving heat pump unit also includes an outdoor temperature sensor 26 to improve the accuracy of temperature control.

[0029] Specifically, during the execution of this application, there are three operating routes: 1. The first type is the normal temperature refrigeration operation route: Variable frequency compressor 2 → High pressure sensor 3 → Compressor discharge temperature sensor 4 → Four-way reversing valve 5 - one and two phases connected, three and four phases connected → Second shut-off valve 9 - in conduction state → Condenser 24, required equipment → Condenser inlet temperature sensor 23 → Seventh shut-off valve 16 - in conduction state → Liquid receiver 18 → Dryer filter 19 → Second refrigeration electronic expansion valve 21 → Liquid outlet temperature sensor 22 → Required equipment → Unit return gas temperature sensor 14 → Fifth shut-off valve 13 - in conduction state → Four-way reversing valve 5 - one and two phases connected, three and four phases connected → Compressor suction temperature sensor 7 → Low pressure sensor 6 → Gas-liquid separator 1 → Variable frequency compressor 2.

[0030] Specifically, when operating in the normal temperature refrigeration mode, the first shut-off valve 8, the third shut-off valve 10, the fourth shut-off valve 12, and the sixth shut-off valve 15 are in the closed state.

[0031] 2. The second type is the low-temperature refrigeration operation route: Variable frequency compressor 2 → High pressure sensor 3 → Compressor exhaust temperature sensor 4 → Plate heat exchanger 11 → Sixth shut-off valve 15 - On state → Liquid storage tank 18 → Dryer filter 19 → Liquid outlet temperature sensor 22 → Required equipment → Unit return gas temperature sensor 14 → Fourth shut-off valve 12 - On state → Third shut-off valve 10 - On state → Condenser 24 → First shut-off valve 8 - On state → Compressor suction temperature sensor 7 → Low pressure sensor 6 → Gas-liquid separator 1 → Variable frequency compressor 2.

[0032] Specifically, when operating in the low-temperature refrigeration mode, the four-way reversing valve 5 is in the state of one and two phases connected, and three and four phases connected, while the second shut-off valve 9, the fifth shut-off valve 13, and the seventh shut-off valve 16 are in the closed state.

[0033] 3. The third type is the heating operation route. Variable frequency compressor 2 → High pressure sensor 3 → Compressor discharge temperature sensor 4 → Four-way reversing valve 5 - one and four phases connected, two and three phases connected → Fifth shut-off valve 13 - in conduction state → Unit return gas temperature sensor 14 → Required equipment → Liquid outlet temperature sensor 22 → One-way valve 17 → Liquid storage tank 18 → Dryer filter 19 → First heating electronic expansion valve 20 → Condenser inlet temperature sensor 23 → Condenser 24 → Second shut-off valve 9 - in conduction state → Four-way reversing valve 5 - one and four phases connected, two and three phases connected → Compressor suction temperature sensor 7 → Low pressure sensor 6 → Gas-liquid separator 1 → Variable frequency compressor 2 Note: The first shut-off valve 8, the third shut-off valve 10, the fourth shut-off valve 12, the sixth shut-off valve 15, and the seventh shut-off valve 16 are in the closed state.

[0034] Specifically, it should be noted that the variable frequency compressor uses variable speed control. When the demand increases, the compressor speed increases; when the demand decreases, the compressor speed decreases.

[0035] The electric fan uses variable speed control; when demand increases, the fan speed increases; when demand decreases, the fan speed decreases.

[0036] In practical use, the electronic expansion valve adopts an overheat control method and is adjusted by PID as needed. High temperature and pressure protection are set at the compressor outlet position, and pressure and temperature protection are set at the compressor suction position.

[0037] It should be noted that in cooling mode, first switch the four-way reversing valve to cooling mode, then turn on the electric fan, then start the compressor, and simultaneously open the electronic expansion valve. The fan is adjusted according to the ambient temperature, the compressor is adjusted according to the required cooling capacity or the target outlet temperature of the electronic expansion valve, and the electronic expansion valve is adjusted using PID control based on the superheat.

[0038] It should be noted that in heating mode, first switch the four-way reversing valve to the heating state, then turn on the electric fan, then start the compressor, and at the same time open the electronic expansion valve. The fan is adjusted according to the ambient temperature, the compressor is adjusted according to the required cooling capacity or the target outlet temperature of the electronic expansion valve, and the electronic expansion valve is adjusted by PID control according to the superheat.

[0039] During operation, protection measures are required for outlet high temperature, outlet high pressure, suction low pressure, and overheating. Ideally, the compressor and fan of the heat pump unit should be variable frequency; otherwise, the unit may fail to operate when cooling or heating is required. PID control is necessary.

[0040] The advantages of this application are as follows: 1. In both cooling and heating modes, the liquid needs to pass through the liquid storage tank and the dryer filter to avoid reducing the system calibration performance of the multi-loop system.

[0041] 2. Add a liquid storage tank to extend the system's service life; 3. Add a low-temperature refrigeration circuit to solve the problem of refrigeration not meeting the operating conditions under low-temperature conditions, which may lead to equipment damage.

Inside the housing, a temperature sensing element, a clock circuit, a control circuit, and a radio frequency circuit are disposed in the middle. Inside the housing, a photoelectric conversion circuit, a battery storage circuit, a power management circuit, and an energy storage circuit are disposed in the lower part.
