[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 4 An air conditioning system capable of defrosting an outdoor unit and heating at the same time comprises: a compressor 10, a four-way valve 20, an indoor heat exchanger 30, an outdoor heat exchanger 50, a gas-liquid separator 60, a defrosting and pressure-reducing pipeline 70 and a pipeline control system 80.
[0027] When the four-way valve 20 is switched to the cooling mode, the output end of the compressor 10 is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger 50 through the four-way valve 20, and the output end of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 is connected to the indoor heat exchanger 30. After the output end of the indoor heat exchanger 30 is connected to the four-way valve 20, it is connected to the gas-liquid separator 60 through another pipeline output end of the four-way valve 20, and the gas-liquid separator 60 is connected to the input end of the compressor 10;
[0028] When the four-way valve 20 is switched to the heating mode, the output end of the compressor 10 is connected to the indoor heat exchanger 30 through the four-way valve 20, and the output end of the indoor heat exchanger 30 is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger 50. After the output end of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 is connected to the four-way valve 20, it is connected to the gas-liquid separator 60 through another pipeline output end of the four-way valve 20, and the gas-liquid separator 60 is connected to the input end of the compressor 10;
[0029] One end of the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70 is connected to the output end of the compressor 10, and the other end is respectively connected to the input end of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 and / or the input end of the gas-liquid separator 60. When heating, the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70 is used to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger 50. When cooling, the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70 is used to reduce the exhaust pressure. A defrost heat exchanger 71 is provided in the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70. The defrost heat exchanger 71 is arranged at the rear side of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 in the wind flow direction. The fan of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 causes the air flow to bring the heat of the defrost heat exchanger 71 to the heat exchange components of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 for defrosting.
[0030] It is worth noting that in embodiment 1 of the present invention, the defrost heat exchanger 71 is arranged between the fan and the heat exchange component of the outdoor heat exchanger 50. The air flow blown out by the fan of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 is heated by the defrost heat exchanger 71 and then blown to the heat exchange component of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 for defrosting.
[0031] In embodiment 2 of the present utility model, the heat exchange component of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 is arranged between the defrost heat exchanger 71 and the fan of the outdoor heat exchanger 50. The fan of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 draws the outside air through the defrost heat exchanger 71 for heating, and then flows through the heat exchange component of the outdoor heat exchanger 50 for defrosting, and finally blows it out through the fan of the outdoor heat exchanger 50.
[0032] The pipeline control system includes a first electronic expansion valve 81. The first electronic expansion valve 81 is disposed between the indoor heat exchanger 30 and the outdoor heat exchanger 50 and is close to the indoor heat exchanger 30.
[0033] It can be understood that, in the heating mode, a portion of the high-temperature refrigerant output by the compressor 10 can be output to the defrost heat exchanger 71 through the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70 to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger 50 without stopping heating. In the cooling mode, a portion of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant output by the compressor 10 can be condensed and cooled through the defrost heat exchanger 71 through the defrost pressure-reducing pipeline 70 to reduce the exhaust pressure.
[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The defrosting and depressurizing pipeline 70 includes a heating defrosting pipeline 72 and a cooling depressurizing pipeline 73. When the air conditioner is heating, the heating defrosting pipeline 72 can transport part of the high-temperature refrigerant output by the compressor 10 to the defrosting heat exchanger 71 to heat the inlet air of the outdoor heat exchange fan. When the air conditioner is cooling, the cooling depressurizing pipeline 73 transports part of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged by the compressor 10 to the defrosting heat exchanger 71 for condensation and cooling, thereby reducing the exhaust pressure.
[0035] It can be understood that the heating and defrosting pipeline 72 outputs the high-temperature refrigerant output by the compressor 10 to the defrost heat exchanger 71 to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger 50, so that the outdoor heat exchanger 50 can continue to perform heating work without stopping indoor heating.
[0036] The refrigeration pressure reduction pipeline 73 can transport the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the compressor 10 to the defrost heat exchanger 71 for condensation and cooling, thereby reducing the exhaust pressure and extending the service life of the compressor 10.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 4 One end of the heating and defrosting pipeline 72 is connected between the output end of the compressor 10 and the input end of the four-way valve 20, and the other end is connected between the gas-liquid separator 60 and the four-way valve 20 and close to the input end of the gas-liquid separator 60. The defrosting heat exchanger 71 is arranged on the heating and defrosting pipeline 72.
[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 4 One end of the refrigeration pressure-reducing pipeline 73 is connected between the output end of the compressor 10 and the input end of the four-way valve 20, and the other end is connected between the outdoor heat exchanger 50 and the first electronic expansion valve 81. The defrosting heat exchanger 71 is arranged on the refrigeration pressure-reducing pipeline 73.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The pipeline control system 80 further includes a first solenoid valve 82 and a second solenoid valve 83. The first solenoid valve 82 is arranged between the defrost heat exchanger 71 and the first electronic expansion valve 81. The second solenoid valve 83 is arranged between the output end of the defrost heat exchanger 71 and the input end of the gas-liquid separator 60.
[0040] It is understandable that in the embodiment of the present invention, the opening and closing of the heating and defrosting pipeline 72 or the cooling and depressurizing pipeline 73 are controlled by the first solenoid valve 82 and the second solenoid valve 83. Only one of the two is in the open state at the same time in different modes.
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The pipeline control system 80 also includes a second electronic expansion valve 84, an indoor temperature sensing package 85, an outdoor temperature sensing package 86, a defrosting temperature sensing package 87 and an exhaust pressure sensor 88. The second electronic expansion valve 84 is arranged between the output end of the compressor 10 and the input end of the defrosting heat exchanger 71. The indoor temperature sensing package 85 is arranged on the indoor heat exchanger 30. The outdoor temperature sensing package 86 is arranged on the outdoor heat exchanger 50, and the defrosting temperature sensing package 87 is arranged on the heat exchange component of the outdoor heat exchanger 50. The exhaust pressure sensor 88 is arranged at the output end of the compressor 10.
[0042] It is worth noting that, in some embodiments of the present invention, the flow of the heating and defrosting pipeline 72 or the refrigeration and pressure-reducing pipeline 73 is controlled by the second electronic expansion valve 84 to achieve precise regulation.
[0043] It should be noted that in some embodiments of the present invention, the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 is regulated in real time or periodically based on data detected by the indoor temperature sensing package 85 , the outdoor temperature sensing package 86 , the defrost temperature sensing package 87 and the exhaust pressure sensor 88 .
[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The utility model discloses an air conditioning system that can defrost and heat an outdoor unit at the same time, comprising the following steps during operation:
[0045] When heating, first open the first electronic expansion valve 81, close the second electronic expansion valve 84, the first solenoid valve 82 and the second solenoid valve 83. Then, the defrost temperature T1 is detected in real time by the defrost temperature sensing package 87, and the outdoor ambient temperature T2 is detected in real time by the outdoor temperature sensing package 86. When T1<A*T2-B, open the second electronic expansion valve 84 and the second solenoid valve 83. When it is detected that T1>A*T2-B+2, close the second electronic expansion valve 84 and the second solenoid valve 83.
[0046] During cooling, the first electronic expansion valve 81 is first opened, and the second electronic expansion valve 84, the first solenoid valve 82, and the second solenoid valve 83 are closed. The exhaust pressure P1 is detected in real time by the exhaust pressure sensor 88. When P1>C, the second electronic expansion valve 84 and the first solenoid valve 82 are opened. When it is detected that P1<C-2, the second electronic expansion valve 84 and the first solenoid valve 82 are closed.
[0047] Where A is the set ratio, B is the set temperature parameter, and C is the set adjustment parameter.
[0048] It should be noted that the ratio parameter A, the temperature parameter B and the adjustment parameter C can all be set by those skilled in the art according to requirements.
[0049] It is understandable that in heating mode, when A*T2-B is the temperature at which the outdoor heat exchanger needs to be defrosted set by pump technicians, when T1 is less than this value, the heating defrost pipeline 72 needs to be opened for defrosting. In cooling mode, C is the threshold of the exhaust pressure. When the exhaust pressure is higher than C, the cooling pressure-reducing pipeline 73 is opened to reduce the exhaust pressure of the compressor 10.
[0050] As a further improvement of the above scheme, the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 is adjusted every 10 seconds to 50 seconds. The opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 is set to X1. The opening of the second electronic expansion valve in the previous cycle is set to X2. In the heating mode, the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 is X1 = X2 + [A*T2-B-T1], and in the cooling mode, the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 is X1 = X2 + [P1-C].
[0051] It is worth noting that periodically adjusting the opening of the second electronic expansion valve 84 can achieve precise control of air conditioning cooling or heating and avoid energy waste.
[0052] As a further improvement of the above scheme, it is worth noting that in some embodiments of the present utility model, the value range of the proportional parameter A is 0.5≤A≤0.8; the value range of the temperature parameter B is 4℃≤B≤8℃; the value range of the adjustment parameter C is 35.89Kg≤C≤38.35Kg.
[0053] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
