[0026] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this application will be further explained in conjunction with embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0028] The embodiment of the present application provides an energy storage air conditioner to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the evaporator fins are prone to fall over when the electric heater is installed in the energy storage air conditioner.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the energy storage air conditioner includes a cabinet 10, a fan 30, an evaporator 40 and an electric heating component 20. The fan 30 and the evaporator 40 are both installed in the cabinet 10. A mounting plate 50 is provided between the fan 30 and the evaporator 40. A sliding mechanism 60 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 50 facing away from the fan 30. The electric heating component 20 includes a bracket 21 and an electric heater 22 fixed on the bracket 21. The bracket 21 can be slidably connected to the sliding mechanism 60 to install the electric heater 22 in the cabinet 10.

[0030] It should be noted that in the related art, the electric heater is installed directly below the fan, and the conventional fixing method of the electric heater is to use self-tapping screws to lock it from bottom to top. However, since the evaporator is placed at an angle and is close to the electric heater, this method easily causes the pneumatic screwdriver used to install the self-tapping screws to collide with the evaporator, causing the fins to fall over.

[0031] To this end, the energy storage air conditioner provided in the present application is provided with a sliding mechanism 60 on the side of the mounting plate 50 facing away from the fan 30, and the electric heater 22 is fixed on the bracket 21, and the electric heater 22 is assembled by sliding the bracket 21 on the sliding mechanism 60. Compared with the prior art of installing the electric heater with self-tapping screws, the electric heater 22 is installed by the sliding mechanism 60 in the present application. During the installation process, the electric heater 22 will not collide with the evaporator 40 below, thereby avoiding the problem of the evaporator 40 fins falling over due to the collision, thereby ensuring the performance of the energy storage air conditioner, and at the same time improving the installation efficiency, saving time and effort, and facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the electric heating component 20.

[0032] For details, please refer to Figure 1 The cabinet 10 can be a rectangular box structure, and the cabinet 10 can be set with one side open, and the open side is used to install the panel. When installing the electric heating component 20, it is only necessary to open the panel and push the electric heating component 20 into the cabinet 10 to achieve installation; and when the electric heating component 20 needs to be repaired, it is only necessary to open the panel and directly drag out the electric heating component 20 without disassembling other parts, which effectively improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the energy storage air conditioner and simplifies the internal structure of the energy storage air conditioner.

[0033] For further information, see Figure 1 A partition plate 11 is provided inside the cabinet 10, and the partition plate 11 is used to divide the space inside the cabinet 10 into a hot chamber 13 and a cold chamber 12. In this embodiment, the partition plate 11 is arranged in the horizontal direction, the cold chamber 12 is located above the partition plate 11, and the hot chamber 13 is located below the partition plate 11. The fan 30 and the evaporator 40 are both placed in the cold chamber 12, and the fan 30 and the evaporator 40 are arranged along the height direction of the cabinet 10.

[0034] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting plate 50 can be horizontally arranged in the cold chamber 12, and the fan 30 can be fixed on the mounting plate 50 by means of snap connection or screw connection, and a through hole 51 is provided on the mounting plate 50, and the through hole 51 is used to connect the air inlet and the air outlet, and the electric heating component 20 is located at the through hole 51. In this embodiment, by arranging the sliding mechanism 60 on the side of the mounting plate 50 facing away from the fan 30, it is beneficial to ensure that the electric heating component 20 will not be blocked by the fan 30 during the installation process, so as to achieve smooth assembly of the electric heating component 20.

[0035] It can be understood that the heat chamber 13 is provided with components such as a compressor, a condenser, and an electronic expansion valve. The compressor can drive the refrigerant to flow between the evaporator 40 and the condenser. The refrigerant flowing to the evaporator 40 vaporizes and absorbs heat, so that the temperature of the air decreases when passing through the evaporator 40; and the refrigerant flowing to the condenser liquefies and releases heat, so that the temperature of the air increases when passing through the condenser.

[0036] The cabinet 10 is also provided with an air inlet and an air outlet respectively connected to the cold chamber 12, and the fan 30 is used to drive the air flow from the air inlet to the air outlet. The evaporator 40 can be tilted in the cold chamber 12, so that the heat exchange area of ​​the evaporator 40 can be increased to achieve a better cooling effect.

[0037] When the energy storage air conditioner in this embodiment is in use, the side of the cabinet 10 with the air outlet can be closely attached to the wall of the container body, and the air outlet can be connected to the internal space of the container body, so as to transport the low-temperature airflow or high-temperature airflow in the cold cavity 12 to the inside of the container. The electric heater 22 is used to heat the airflow in the cold cavity 12. After the airflow heated by the electric heater 22 enters the inside of the container, it can prevent the temperature in the container from being too low, causing the battery electrolyte to solidify and the impedance to increase. At the same time, it can also reduce the air humidity inside the container, prevent the battery from getting damp, and effectively increase the service life of the battery in the container.

[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The number of the electric heaters 22 can be multiple, and the multiple electric heaters 22 are arranged on the bracket 21 at intervals. By setting the multiple electric heaters 22, the heating efficiency of the air in the cold chamber 12 can be improved, and the service life of the battery in the container body can be guaranteed.

[0039] Optionally, in one embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 The sliding mechanism 60 includes two guide rails 61 arranged at intervals, and the two guide rails 61 extend along the first direction. Both sides of the bracket 21 are provided with flanges 211, and each flange 211 can slide on the guide rail 61 corresponding thereto.

[0040] Specifically, the bracket 21 can be a rectangular frame structure, the electric heater 22 is fixed inside the bracket 21, and the two guide rails 61 are arranged opposite to each other and are respectively located on both sides of the bracket 21. The two guide rails 61 can be matched with the two flanges 211 one by one, so that the flanges 211 can slide on the corresponding guide rails 61, thereby realizing the sliding connection between the electric heating component 20 and the sliding mechanism 60.

[0041] For further information, see Figure 3The guide rail 61 includes a first plate 611 and a second plate 612 arranged at a preset angle, the first plate 611 is connected to the mounting plate 50, the second plate 612 is connected to the first plate 611, and the flange 211 is slidably connected to the second plate 612. Figure 3 As shown, the first plate body 611 includes a top plate 6111 and a side plate 6112 which are perpendicular to each other. The top plate 6111 is provided with a plurality of screw holes. The top plate 6111 and the mounting plate 50 can be fixed by means of screw connection. The side plate 6112 extends in a direction away from the mounting plate 50. The second plate body 612 is connected to the side plate 6112, and the second plate body 612 can be vertically arranged with the side plate 6112. The second plate body 612 and the top plate 6111 are located on two sides opposite to each other of the side plate 6112. When the flange 211 slides on the second plate body 612, the side plate 6112 can limit the flange 211 so that the flange 211 can only slide along the first direction. The flange 211 will not deviate from the guide rail 61 during the sliding process, thereby improving the stability of the sliding mechanism 60.

[0042] Optionally, in one embodiment, see Figure 3-Figure 5 A limiting plate 62 is provided at one end of the second plate body 612 , and a slot 63 is formed between the limiting plate 62 and the second plate body 612 , and one end of the flange 211 can be located in the slot 63 .

[0043] Specifically, the limit plate 62 is arranged at the end of the second plate body 612 in the first direction. Through the setting of the limit plate 62, it is possible to prevent the bracket 21 from continuing to slide on the second plate body 612 when the bracket 21 slides to the preset assembly position, thereby ensuring the reliable sliding performance of the bracket 21 and the guide rail 61; at the same time, the end of the flange 211 is located in the slot 63, so that the flange 211 will not move toward one side of the mounting plate 50, that is, the flange 211 will not separate from the guide rail 61, and its practical performance is better.

[0044] For further information, see Figure 4 , one end of the limit plate 62 is connected to the second plate body 612 in an arc transition connection, and the other end of the limit plate 62 is tilted toward one side of the mounting plate 50. It is understandable that the limit plate 62 can be connected to the second plate body 612 by a rounding process to achieve an arc transition connection. By adopting an arc transition connection, burrs at the bend can be removed to prevent burrs from scratching the wiring harness and improve safety performance; at the same time, the use of an arc transition connection can also decompose stress and avoid stress concentration leading to fracture. The other end of the limit plate 62 is tilted toward one side of the mounting plate 50, which is conducive to guiding the end of the flange 211 into the slot 63, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0045] Optionally, in one embodiment, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6A first folded edge 64 is provided at one end of the second plate body 612 away from the limiting plate 62 , and a second folded edge 212 is provided at one end of the flange 211 away from the limiting plate 62 . The first folded edge 64 can be fixedly connected to the second folded edge 212 .

[0046] Specifically, the first folded edge 64 can be arranged perpendicularly to the second plate body 612, and the first folded edge 64 is located on the side of the second plate body 612 facing away from the mounting plate 50, and the second folded edge 212 is arranged perpendicularly to the flange 211. The second folded edge 212 and the first folded edge 64 are abutted against each other to play a limiting role, thereby preventing the flange 211 from continuing to slide on the second plate body 612; and, by fixedly connecting the first folded edge 64 and the second folded edge 212, the electric heating component 20 can be fixed on the two guide rails 61, thereby preventing the electric heating component 20 from falling off the guide rails 61 due to the vibration of the air conditioner, thereby improving the safety performance of the entire machine.

[0047] Optionally, in one embodiment, see Figure 4 and Figure 6 The first folding edge 64 is provided with a first mounting hole 641, and the second folding edge 212 is provided with a second mounting hole 2121. The screws pass through the second mounting hole 2121 and the first mounting hole 641 in sequence to fix the flange 211 to the second plate 612. It can be understood that the first mounting hole 641 and the second mounting hole 2121 are both screw holes, and the electric heating assembly 20 can be fixed to the two guide rails 61 by passing the screws through the second mounting hole 2121 and the first mounting hole 641 in sequence.

[0048] Optionally, in one embodiment, a first adsorption member is provided on the first folded edge 64, and a second adsorption member is provided on the second folded edge 212, and the first adsorption member and the second adsorption member cooperate to fix the flange 211 to the second plate 612. It can be understood that the fixation between the flange 211 and the second plate 612 is achieved through the adsorption effect between the first adsorption member and the second adsorption member, thereby fixing the electric heating assembly 20 to the two guide rails 61.

[0049] It is understandable that in order to enable the first adsorbent and the second adsorbent to adsorb each other, the first adsorbent can be a magnet, and correspondingly, the second adsorbent can be a magnet or a ferromagnetic adsorbent block made of magnetic materials such as iron, cobalt, and nickel; or, the first adsorbent is a ferromagnetic adsorbent block made of magnetic materials such as iron, cobalt, and nickel, and the second adsorbent is a magnet, which can also achieve the above effect. In practical applications, in order to save costs, one of the first adsorbent and the second adsorbent is generally set as a permanent magnet, and the other is set as a ferromagnetic adsorbent block.

[0050] Optionally, in one embodiment, each guide rail 61 is an integrally formed structure.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first side plate 6112, the second side plate 6112, the first folded edge 64 and the limit plate 62 can be fused into one, so that the guide rail 61 forms a whole, which can not only reduce the number of parts of the sliding mechanism 60 and improve assembly efficiency, but also increase the structural strength and improve safety performance.
