[0002] When the refrigerated dryer is working, it lowers the temperature of the compressed air to reduce the water vapor content in the compressed air. The excess water vapor will condense into liquid and then the liquid water will be removed, thereby achieving the effect of drying the compressed air.

[0003] After searching, the application with patent number CN202321384905.4 discloses a refrigerated air dryer, which includes a refrigerant compressor; the refrigerant compressor compresses the refrigerant from low-temperature and low-pressure gas into high-temperature and high-pressure gas, and then flows into the condenser through the pipeline to be condensed into high-pressure liquid, and the high-pressure liquid is reduced in pressure through the expansion valve through the pipeline to become a low-pressure liquid and then flows into the evaporator, and the low-pressure liquid undergoes a phase change in the evaporator to become a low-pressure gas and absorbs ambient heat; it also includes a precooler, a filter and a cyclone separator;

[0004] Although the refrigerated air dryer is configured with a precooler to "recover" the cold carried by the air after being cooled by the evaporator, the refrigerated air dryer does not recover the heat energy of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas compressed by the refrigerant compressor, resulting in a waste of heat energy.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. Example 1

[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown: it includes a box body 1, a refrigerant compressor 2 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the box body 1, the output end of the refrigerant compressor 2 is connected to the input end of the heat recovery exchanger 3 through a connecting pipe, the water outlet of the heat recovery exchanger 3 is connected to the inner barrel 41 through a connecting pipe, a heating barrel 4 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the inner barrel 41, the side wall of the heating barrel 4 is connected to the air pump through an air pipe 42, the input end of the refrigerant compressor 2 is connected to the heating barrel 4 through a connecting pipe, and the output end of the heat recovery exchanger 3 is connected to the input end of the condenser 5 through a connecting pipe. Example 2

[0023] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown: the output end of the condenser 5 is connected to the input end of the evaporator 6 through a connecting pipe, the output end of the evaporator 6 is connected to the filter 7 and the precooler 8 in sequence through a connecting pipe, the air outlet end of the precooler 8 is fixedly connected to the air outlet pipe 81, the output end of the refrigerant compressor 2 is connected to the evaporator 6 through a pipeline equipped with a bypass valve, an expansion valve is fixedly installed on the pipeline between the condenser 5 and the evaporator 6, and the evaporator 6 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the cabinet 1.

[0024] The working principle and use process of the utility model: when the heat recovery type refrigeration dryer is used, the refrigerant is compressed from low-temperature and low-pressure gas into high-temperature and high-pressure gas through the refrigerant compressor 2, and then the high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the refrigerant compressor 2 exchanges heat with cold water in the heat recovery exchanger 3. After the cold water is heated, it is discharged into the interior of the inner barrel 41 and heats the gas inside the heating barrel 4. At the same time, the pressure of the gas inside the heating barrel 4 can be increased. Then, the gas inside the heating barrel 4 is transported to the interior of the refrigerant compressor 2 through the air pump, which is convenient for pressurizing the refrigerant inside the refrigerant compressor 2. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas is then transferred to the inner barrel 41 through the heat recovery exchanger 3. The air is transported to the condenser 5 and condensed into a high-pressure liquid. The high-pressure liquid is reduced in pressure into a low-pressure liquid through an expansion valve through a pipeline and then flows into the evaporator 6. The low-pressure liquid is converted into a low-pressure gas in the evaporator 6 and absorbs the surrounding heat. The gas is then filtered by the filter 7 to become dry cold air and discharged through the precooler 8. After the gas is condensed into a high-pressure liquid through the condenser 5, it is converted into a low-pressure gas through the evaporator 6 and absorbs the surrounding heat. The impurities in the gas are absorbed by the filter 7. The bypass valve can adjust the amount of refrigerant passing through it according to the requirements of load changes. The expansion valve can reduce the pressure on the high-pressure liquid to make it a low-pressure liquid.

[0025] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the utility model is limited by the attached claims rather than the above description, and it is intended to include all changes within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.
