AI Technical Summary
The dehumidification efficiency of the refrigeration module of existing semiconductor dehumidifiers is not high, mainly due to insufficient air convection generated by the cooling fan, which leads to a small amount of air flowing through the surface of the condensed aluminum block per unit time, which cannot effectively reduce the absolute water content in the air.
Add a condensing fan to the refrigeration module, forcing the surrounding air to flow through the surface of the condensed aluminum block, and guide the air blown out of the condensing fan through the air guide hood, increasing the amount of air flowing through the surface of the condensed aluminum block per unit time, combining the water tank and Water level detection mechanism to ensure effective collection and monitoring of condensate water.
The dehumidification amount and dehumidification efficiency per unit time are significantly improved, and the cost is reduced. At the same time, the air guide hood and water level detection mechanism are used to ensure the efficiency of air outflow and condensate collection, avoiding condensate splashing and Overload.

[0002] As people pay more and more attention to healthy living, dehumidifiers are rapidly becoming one of the indispensable home appliances in many families, with broad market prospects and market potential.
[0003] At present, the common semiconductor dehumidifier refrigeration modules on the market mainly include cooling fans, air duct front covers, heat dissipation aluminum blocks, semiconductor refrigeration plates, air duct rear covers, condensing aluminum blocks and other components. The heat dissipation aluminum block is close to the hot end surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, and the condensing aluminum block is close to the cold end surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate. The cooling fan forces air to cool the heat dissipation aluminum block, and the heat released by the hot end surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate is discharged to the outside of the machine on both sides through the air duct. At the same time, the surrounding air flows through the surface of the condensing aluminum block by natural circulation. When the temperature of the air drops below its dew point temperature, the water vapor in the air will condense on the surface of the condensing aluminum block, and then gather and flow into the water tank, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the absolute water content in the air.
[0004] The current refrigeration module mainly relies on air convection generated by the cooling fan to draw air. The amount of air flowing through the surface of the condensing aluminum block per unit time is small, the dehumidification amount per unit time is limited, and the dehumidification efficiency is not high.
