Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle-mounted drying, and more specifically, relates to a vehicle-mounted drying system and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] With the development of society, more and more people choose to travel by car during holidays. It is inevitable to change clothes during the journey, but it is impossible to stay in a hotel for a long time during the journey. Generally, people live nearby as the journey progresses. This results in insufficient time for the changed clothes to dry naturally. Car owners can only hope that the hotel has a public dryer. However, the sanitation and safety risks of public dryers are worrying. If you carry dirty clothes all the time on a long journey, it will cause a lot of inconvenience to the journey. In order to solve the problem that the changed clothes cannot be dried during long-distance travel, it is very necessary to install a drying device in the car.
[0003] Existing drying equipment uses electricity to power the built-in heating device to heat the cold air, and then uses a blower to pass the heated hot air through the wet clothes to remove the moisture from the clothes. However, the electric energy is limited during the movement of the vehicle. If the drying equipment is also powered by electricity, it will lead to increased power loss, and the vehicle needs to be frequently charged or refueled, which increases the cost and affects the normal movement of the vehicle, delaying the journey.
[0004] Vehicles often need to slow down or stop while moving, so brakes are used very frequently during the movement of vehicles. Brakes mainly rely on the friction between the brake parts and the moving parts. Since the vehicle itself has a large weight and therefore a large inertia, a large amount of heat will inevitably be generated during the friction process. If it is not cooled in time, it is very easy to cause the brake friction to catch fire when the weather temperature is high, thereby causing dangers such as vehicle spontaneous combustion. Therefore, if the heat generated by vehicle braking can be combined with an on-board drying device, not only can the drying device not need to be provided with additional electrical energy, but the brake can also be cooled in time to prevent the brake from spontaneously igniting.

[0034] Please also read Figures 1 to 3The vehicle-mounted drying system and the vehicle provided by the utility model are now described. The vehicle-mounted drying system includes a dryer 4, an energy storage box 3, a brake cooling pipe 2 and an infusion pump 6. The dryer 4 has a drying chamber; the energy storage box 3 has an energy storage chamber for storing heat transfer medium; one end of the brake cooling pipe 2 is connected to the liquid inlet of the energy storage chamber, and the other end is connected to the liquid outlet of the energy storage chamber. The brake cooling pipe 2 has a heat absorbing part located in the brake 1 and a heat releasing part located in the drying chamber; the infusion pump 6 is provided in the brake cooling pipe 2 and is located between the energy storage box 3 and the dryer 4. The infusion pump 6 allows the heat transfer medium in the energy storage chamber to circulate along the brake cooling pipe 2.
[0035] Compared with the prior art, the vehicle-mounted drying system provided by the utility model has a heat transfer medium stored in the energy storage chamber of the vehicle-mounted drying system of the utility model, and the heat transfer medium flows along the brake cooling pipe 2 under the action of the infusion pump 6. The heat transfer medium absorbs the heat generated by the brake 1 due to braking in the heat absorption part, and then flows along the brake cooling pipe 2 to the energy storage chamber, and enters the brake cooling pipe 2 again, and exchanges heat with the clothes in the drying chamber in the heat release part, so that the moisture adhered to the surface of the clothes evaporates in a high temperature environment to form water vapor, thereby accelerating the drying of the clothes. In this embodiment, the heat generated by the friction of the brake 1 during braking is exchanged with the heat transfer medium in the heat absorption part, which can not only reduce the temperature of the brake 1 and prevent the brake 1 from spontaneously igniting the vehicle due to excessive temperature, but also use the heat energy after the heat transfer medium absorbs the heat to dry the clothes in the drying chamber, accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the clothes, and do not need to provide additional electricity to dry the clothes, thereby reducing energy consumption.
[0036] Optionally, the heat transfer medium includes water, glycerin, methyl silicone oil, phenyl silicone oil, etc.
[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The vehicle-mounted drying system also includes a cooler 11 located downstream of the energy storage box 3 and a development valve 5 provided on the brake cooling pipe 2. The brake cooling pipe 2 has a heat dissipation part located in the cooler 11, and the cooler 11 cools the heat transfer medium in the heat dissipation part.
[0038] In hot weather such as summer, or when the brake 1 is frequently used in a short period of time, the temperature of the brake 1 rises rapidly, causing the temperature of the heat transfer medium to be too high. If the heat transfer medium is directly transported to the drying box to exchange heat with the clothes, it is easy to cause high temperature damage to the clothes. Therefore, a cooler 11 is set downstream of the energy storage box 3, and the heat transfer medium is cooled in the heat dissipation part so that the heat transfer medium dries the clothes in the drying chamber at a suitable temperature. The switch valve 5 controls whether the heat transfer medium enters the energy storage cavity. This embodiment can ensure that the heat transfer medium is at a suitable temperature to avoid damage to the clothes due to excessively high temperature of the heat transfer medium.
[0039] Optionally, the switch valve 5 is located between the energy storage tank 3 and the cooler 11 .
[0040] Optionally, the infusion pump 6 is located between the dryer 4 and the cooler 11 .
[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The vehicle-mounted drying system further includes a temperature sensor 301 disposed in the energy storage cavity. The temperature sensor 301 and the cooler 11 are respectively connected to the controller for communication.
[0042] The temperature sensor 301 detects the temperature in the energy storage cavity. When the temperature in the energy storage cavity reaches the maximum temperature preset value, the temperature sensor 301 generates a cooling signal. The controller controls the cooler 11 to start according to the cooling signal to cool the heat transfer medium flowing through the heat dissipation part. This embodiment can monitor the temperature in the energy storage cavity in real time. When the temperature in the energy storage cavity is too high, the cooler 11 is turned on in time to cool the heat transfer medium, so as to prevent the high-temperature heat transfer medium from entering the drying chamber and damaging the clothes.
[0043] Optionally, the controller may be a control module in the dryer 4 or a control system built into the vehicle body.
[0044] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The drying cabin is provided with an air outlet. The vehicle-mounted drying system also includes an air duct 7 connected to the drying cabin, an air pump 9 arranged on the air duct 7, and an air regulating valve 10 arranged at the air outlet. The air pump 9 delivers external air into the drying cabin along the air duct 7.
[0045] After the heat transfer medium heats the clothes in the drying chamber for a period of time, the moisture on the surface of the clothes evaporates to form water vapor, which increases the humidity in the drying chamber and worsens the drying effect. At this time, the air regulating valve 10 is opened, and the air pump 9 is started. Under the action of the air pump 9, the external air flows along the air duct 7 and enters the drying chamber, and the water vapor in the drying chamber is discharged from the air outlet, thereby reducing the humidity in the drying chamber and accelerating the drying of the clothes.
[0046] Optionally, the air duct 7 is connected to the air inlet duct of the engine, and the turbocharger is used as an air pump 7. The turbocharger introduces the air volume of the engine into the drying chamber, and there is no need to set up an additional air pump, thereby simplifying the overall structure.
[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 An air filter 8 is provided at the air inlet end of the air guide pipe 7, and the air filter 8 filters impurities in the air.
[0048] The air filter 8 filters the air entering the air duct 7 to prevent dust and other particles in the external air from entering the drying chamber and contaminating the clothes, while also preventing the air duct 7 from being blocked.
[0049] Optionally, the filter of the engine is used as an air filter, and the air guide duct 7 is connected to the air inlet duct of the engine to introduce the air flow passing through the filter into the drying cabin.
[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The vehicle-mounted drying system also includes a heat exchanger 12 and a heat exchange pipe 13. The air duct 7 has a temperature rising portion located in the heat exchanger 12. Both ends of the heat exchange pipe 13 are connected to the brake cooling pipe 2, and one end is located upstream of the dryer 4, and the other end is located downstream of the dryer 4. The heat exchange pipe 13 has a heat exchange portion located in the heat exchanger 12.
[0051] After the outside air enters the air duct 7, it flows to the heat exchange part; the heat transfer medium absorbs the heat generated by the brake 1 and flows into the energy storage cavity. A part of it flows into the drying chamber along the brake cooling tube 2, and the other part flows into the heat exchange tube 13. Heat exchange occurs between the heat exchange part and the air in the heating part. After the air temperature rises, it enters the drying chamber, which can not only blow the water vapor in the drying chamber out from the air outlet, but also ensure that the high temperature in the drying chamber is maintained, accelerating the drying. In addition, due to the heat exchange between the heat transfer medium and the air, the temperature of the heat transfer medium is reduced. After flowing to the brake cooling tube 2, it flows back to the heat absorption part, cooling the brake 1 again, improving the cooling effect of the brake 1.
[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The vehicle-mounted drying system further includes a water storage structure 14 connected to the drying cabin. The water storage structure 14 includes a connecting pipe 1401 connected to the drying cabin. The connecting pipe 1401 discharges the liquid water in the drying cabin.
[0053] When the dryer 4 is working, the moisture on the surface of the clothes is evaporated, resulting in an increase in humidity in the drying chamber. After the drying operation is stopped, the remaining water vapor is cooled and liquefied to form liquid water. If the liquid water accumulates in the drying chamber for a long time, it is not only easy to breed bacteria, but also easy to cause damage to the dryer 4. Therefore, a connecting pipe 1401 is provided to communicate with the drying chamber, and the liquefied liquid water in the drying chamber is discharged from the drying chamber along the connecting pipe 1401.
[0054] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The water storage structure 14 also includes a water storage box 1402 and a drain valve 1403. The water storage box 1402 is provided with a water inlet and a drain outlet. The water outlet end of the connecting pipe 1401 is inserted into the water inlet; the drain valve 1403 is arranged at the drain outlet to control the drain outlet to discharge water outward.
[0055] The liquid water generated by condensation in the drying chamber enters the water storage box 1402 along the connecting pipe 1401 and is temporarily stored in the water storage box 1402. When a large amount of liquid water accumulates in the water storage box 1402 or it is suitable to discharge water, the drain valve 1403 is opened to discharge the water in the water storage box 1402. This embodiment not only avoids the pollution of the vehicle interior or the external environment caused by the continuous discharge of water, but also avoids the problem that the temperature in the drying chamber is lowered due to the long-term connection of the drying box with the outside through the connecting pipe 1401, thereby affecting the drying effect.
[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The water storage structure 14 also includes a liquid level detector arranged in the water storage box 1402, and the liquid level detector and the drain valve 1403 are respectively connected to the controller for communication.
[0057] After the liquid level detector detects that the liquid level in the water storage box 1402 reaches the preset water level, a discharge signal is generated, and the controller controls the drain valve 1403 to open according to the discharge signal to discharge the accumulated water in the water storage box 1402. This embodiment can monitor the water level in the water storage box 1402 in real time, which can not only avoid the problem of the accumulated water being discharged arbitrarily and causing the vehicle environment to be polluted, but also avoid the problem of the accumulated water in the water storage box 1402 flowing back to the drying cabin due to human error.
[0058] Optionally, the controller may be a control module in the dryer 4 or a control system built into the vehicle body.
[0059] Based on the same inventive concept, the utility model also provides a vehicle, which includes any one of the above-mentioned vehicle-mounted drying systems.
[0060] The vehicle provided by the utility model adopts any of the above-mentioned vehicle-mounted drying systems, and the heat transfer medium flows along the brake cooling tube 2 under the action of the infusion pump 6. The heat transfer medium absorbs the heat generated by the brake 1 due to braking in the heat absorption part, and then flows along the brake cooling tube 2 to the energy storage chamber, and enters the brake cooling tube 2 again, and exchanges heat with the clothes in the drying chamber in the heat release part, so that the moisture adhered to the surface of the clothes evaporates in a high temperature environment to form water vapor, thereby accelerating the drying of the clothes. In this embodiment, the heat generated by the friction of the brake 1 during braking is exchanged with the heat transfer medium in the heat absorption part, which can not only reduce the temperature of the brake 1 and prevent the brake 1 from spontaneously igniting the vehicle due to excessive temperature, but also use the heat energy after the heat transfer medium absorbs heat to dry the clothes in the drying chamber, accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the clothes, and do not need to provide additional electricity to dry the clothes, thereby reducing energy consumption.
[0061] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
