[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. 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.
[0024] Example: See Figures 1 to 3According to an embodiment of the utility model, a technical solution is provided: a cooler with a drainage pipe water trap, comprising: a cooler outer frame 1, a cooler body 2 is installed in the cooler outer frame 1, an air inlet 3 and an air outlet 4 are provided on the cooler outer frame 1, a cooling water inlet 5 and a cooling water outlet 6 are provided on the cooler body, a bent pipe 7 is fixed to the bottom of the cooler outer frame 1, the bent pipe 7 has a vertical water inlet end 71, a curved water trap 72 and a horizontal drainage end 73, the water inlet end 71 is fixed to the bottom of the condenser, the condensed water in the condenser can enter the bent pipe 7 along the water inlet end 71, part of the condensed water can be gathered in the water trap 72, the horizontal height of the drainage end 73 is lower than the horizontal height of the water inlet end 71, it should be noted that the shape of the bent pipe 7 can be spiral, curved, N-shaped, U-shaped, M-shaped or S-shaped, etc., as long as the horizontal height of the drainage end 73 is lower than the horizontal height of the water inlet end 71.
[0025] In the cooler with the drainage pipe water trap 72 of the above-mentioned structure, hot air enters along the air inlet 3, and cooling water is injected into the cooler body 2 along the cooling water inlet 5. The hot air is cooled by the cooler body 2 and then discharged along the air outlet 4, and the cooling water absorbs heat and is discharged along the cooling water outlet 6. During the long cooling process, due to the principle of water evaporation, part of the moisture in the hot air is cooled and gathered at the bottom of the cooler outer frame, and the condensed water enters along the water inlet end 71 of the curved pipe 7 and gathers in the water trap 72 of the curved pipe 7, which effectively isolates the internal and external airflows and prevents the internal and external airflows from flowing in series. In addition, through the principle of communicating vessels, when the condensed water liquid column in the water trap 72 is higher than the drainage end 73 of the curved pipe 7, the condensed water can be discharged along the drainage end 73 of the curved pipe 7.
[0026] In this embodiment, in order to reduce the accumulation of a large amount of condensed water in the water trap 72 of the curved pipe 7, the shape of the water trap 72 is set to be U-shaped to prevent a large amount of condensed water from accumulating in the water trap 72 and causing bacteria to grow in the water trap 72.
[0027] In this embodiment, in order to further control the drainage, a ball valve 8 is installed at the drainage end 73 of the curved pipe 7. By switching the ball valve 8, the drainage end 73 of the curved pipe 7 is closed or opened.
[0028] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the external pipe to connect to the cooler outer frame 1, the air inlet 3 and the air outlet 4 are both arranged on the top of the cooler outer frame 1, thereby facilitating the external pipe to connect to the air inlet 3 and the air outlet 4.
[0029] In this embodiment, in order to prevent the condensed water accumulated in the curved pipe 7 from flowing into the bottom of the cooler outer frame 1 when the condensed water accumulates too much, the horizontal height of the drainage end 73 of the curved pipe 7 is set to be lower than the horizontal height of the bottom of the cooler outer frame 1, thereby increasing fault tolerance.
[0030] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the injection of cooling water, the cooling water inlet 5 and the cooling water outlet 6 are both arranged on one side of the cooler body 2, thereby facilitating the injection and discharge of cooling water.
[0031] Working principle: hot air enters through the air inlet 3, and cooling water is injected into the cooler body 2 through the cooling water inlet 5. The hot air is cooled by the cooler body 2 and discharged along the air outlet 4, and the cooling water absorbs heat and is discharged along the cooling water outlet 6. During the long cooling process, due to the principle of water evaporation, part of the moisture in the hot air is cooled and gathered at the bottom of the cooler outer frame, and the condensed water enters through the water inlet end 71 of the elbow 7 and gathers in the water trap 72 of the elbow 7. The water trap 72 of the elbow 7 can effectively block the internal and external airflows to prevent the internal and external airflows from flowing in parallel. Moreover, through the principle of communicating vessels, when the condensed water column in the water trap 72 is higher than the drainage end 73 of the elbow 7, the condensed water can be discharged along the drainage end 73 of the elbow 7. When a large amount of condensed water accumulates in the water trap 72, the ball valve 8 can be switched to close or open the drainage end 73 of the elbow 7 for controllable drainage.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
