The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model proposes a semiconductor refrigeration temperature regulating pad cold and warm water circulation machine, comprising: a semiconductor refrigerator group 1, an electric heater, a water storage tank 2, a heat supply pump 21 and a cold supply pump 22;
[0040] The electric heater, the heat supply pump 21 and the cold supply pump 22 are installed in the water storage tank 2, which saves the space occupied by the whole machine and allows the electric heater to directly contact the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 over a large area to heat it;
[0041] The water outlet of the heat supply pump 21 is connected to the water inlet of the temperature regulating pad, and the water outlet of the cooling pump 22 is connected to the water inlet of the temperature regulating pad through the refrigeration box 11 of the semiconductor refrigerator group 1. The liquid working medium is cooled by the semiconductor refrigerator group 1. Compared with the conventional evaporator and compressor refrigeration method, it is not limited by the site and the volume of the whole machine is more compact.
[0042] The water outlet end of the temperature regulating pad is connected to the return pipe 25 of the water storage tank 2, so that the liquid working medium flowing through the temperature regulating pad is returned to the water storage tank 2, so as to realize the circulation flow of the liquid working medium in the temperature regulating pad.
[0043] Furthermore, in order to simplify the circulation pipeline and avoid the temperature regulating pad having multiple water inlet ends to increase the risk of leakage, the present application adopts a single water inlet design in which the heating pump 21 and the cooling pump 22 are connected to the temperature regulating pad;
[0044] Specifically, the water outlet of the heat pump 21 is connected to the first water inlet of the three-way valve 9 through the heat supply pipe 211, the water outlet of the cooling pump 22 is connected to the water inlet of the refrigeration box 11 through the connecting pipe 221, the water outlet of the refrigeration box 11 is connected to the second water inlet of the three-way valve 9 through the cooling pipe 222, and the water outlet of the three-way valve 9 is connected to the water inlet of the temperature regulating pad; a one-way valve is also provided between the three-way valve 9 and the heat supply pipe 211 and the cooling pipe 222 to prevent the liquid in the heat supply pipe 211 and the cooling pipe 222 from communicating with each other.
[0045] When heating is required, the heat pump 21 and the electric heater are started, and the liquid working medium is heated by the electric heater in the water tank 2, passes through the heat pump 21, and then passes through the three-way valve 9 to enter the temperature regulating pad from the heating pipe 211, and then returns to the water tank 2 through the return pipe 25, forming a circulation flow. In this process, as the liquid working medium continues to flow, the liquid working medium can be evenly heated and continuously heated;
[0046] When refrigeration is required, the cooling pump 22 is started, and the liquid working medium is sent into the refrigeration box 11 through the connecting pipe 221. The liquid working medium cooled by the refrigeration box 11 passes through the cooling pipe 222 and the three-way valve 9 into the temperature regulating pad, and then returns to the water storage tank 2 through the return pipe 25, forming a circulation flow. In this process, as the liquid working medium continues to flow, the liquid working medium can be evenly cooled and continuously cooled.
[0047] Specifically, a temperature probe is also installed in the water tank 2 for real-time detection of the temperature of the liquid working medium in the water tank 2. The temperature probe is electrically connected to the heating pump 21, the cooling pump 22, the electric heater, and the PLC controller 5, thereby realizing electrical control of cooling or heating.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, specifically, the semiconductor refrigerator group 1 includes a semiconductor refrigerator 16 and a heat sink 12;
[0049] The semiconductor refrigerator 16 is located between the refrigeration box 11 and the heat sink 12. The heat sink 12 is provided with a plurality of heat sink fins 13 on the end surface facing away from the semiconductor refrigerator 16. The heat sink fan 15 is arranged facing the heat sink fins 13.
[0050] The refrigeration end of the semiconductor refrigerator 16 in contact with the refrigeration box 11 is used to cool the liquid working medium flowing through the refrigeration box 11 . One end of the semiconductor refrigerator 16 in contact with the heat sink 12 performs active and passive combined heat dissipation through the heat dissipation fins 13 and the heat dissipation fan 15 .
[0051] Specifically, the semiconductor refrigerator group 1 also includes a limit frame 14 and a heat dissipation fan 15 in a "J" shape. The inner cavities of the two groups of the limit frames 14 are arranged facing each other, and a heat dissipation plate embedding groove corresponding to the heat dissipation plate 12 is formed in the middle position between the two groups of the limit frames 14, thereby fixing the heat dissipation plate 12 between the refrigeration box 11 and the heat dissipation plate 12. The inner cavity contours of the two groups of the limit frames 14 correspond to the refrigeration box 11 and the heat dissipation fan 15, respectively, thereby fixing the refrigeration box 11 and the heat dissipation fan 15, respectively.
[0052] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, specifically, a liquid injection pipe 23 is configured on the top of the water storage tank 2, and the outer casing 8 around the liquid injection pipe 23 is a sunken concave platform 51 structure;
[0053] The injection tube 23 is threadedly connected to the box cover 24, and the combined height of the box cover 24 and the injection tube 23 is lower than the depth of the recess 51. The design of the recess 51 provides protection for the injection tube 23 to avoid damage to the injection tube 23 caused by external force collision.
[0054] The injection pipe 23 is threadedly connected to the box cover 24, the PLC controller 5 is fixed on the outer cover shell 8, the electric heater, the water storage tank 2, and the semiconductor refrigerator group 1 are all installed on the support platform 7, and the outer cover shell 8 is snap-connected with the support platform 7, so that the temperature regulating pad heating and cooling water circulation machine is portable.
[0055] A control method for a semiconductor refrigeration type temperature regulating pad cold and warm water circulation machine, comprising the following steps;
[0056] S1: Select cooling or heating mode and set the temperature threshold;
[0057] S2: When the cooling mode is selected, the cooling pump 22, the semiconductor refrigerator 16, and the cooling fan 15 are started until the temperature controller probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 3 reaches the temperature threshold and stops;
[0058] The refrigeration mode also includes a refrigeration maintenance mode, when the temperature controller probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 reaches the refrigeration temperature threshold and then increases to above the refrigeration maintenance temperature threshold, the cooling pump 22, the semiconductor refrigerator 16, and the cooling fan 15 are started again;
[0059] When the heating mode is selected, the heat pump 21 and the electric heater are started, and they stop when the temperature controller probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 reaches the temperature threshold;
[0060] The heating mode also includes a heating maintenance mode. When the thermostat probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water tank 2 reaches the heating temperature threshold and then drops below the heating maintenance temperature threshold, the heat pump 21 and the electric heater are started again.
[0061] When the cooling mode is selected, the cooling pump 22, the semiconductor refrigerator 16, and the cooling fan 15 are started until the temperature control probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 reaches the temperature threshold. The semiconductor refrigerator 16 stops working. The cooling mode also includes a cooling maintenance mode. When the temperature control probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 is higher than the set temperature threshold, the semiconductor refrigerator 16 is started again;
[0062] When the heating mode is selected, the heat pump 21 and the electric heater are started until the temperature controller probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 reaches the temperature threshold, and then the electric heater stops working. The heating mode also includes a heating maintenance mode. When the temperature controller probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 drops below the set temperature value, the electric heater is started again.
[0063] Specifically, the temperature control range in the present application is within the range of 20 degrees to 45 degrees above zero.
[0064] The working principle and working process of the utility model are as follows:
[0065] During refrigeration, the cooling pump 22, the semiconductor refrigerator 16, and the cooling fan 15 are started, and the liquid working medium is sent to the refrigeration box 11 through the connecting pipe 221. The semiconductor refrigerator 16 continuously conducts low temperature to the refrigeration box 11. The liquid working medium cooled by the refrigeration box 11 passes through the cooling pipe 222 and the three-way valve 9 into the temperature regulating pad, and then returns to the water storage tank 2 through the return pipe 25, forming a circulation flow, and evenly transferring the cold energy until the temperature probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water storage tank 2 reaches the temperature threshold and stops;
[0066] During heating, the heat pump 21 and the electric heater are started to heat the liquid working medium in the water tank 2. After being heated by the electric heater in the water tank 2, the liquid working medium passes through the heat pump 21, the heating pipe 211, and the three-way valve 9 into the temperature regulating pad, and then returns to the water tank 2 through the return pipe 25, forming a circulating flow to evenly transfer heat energy until the temperature probe detects that the liquid working medium in the water tank 2 reaches the temperature threshold and stops.
[0067] The above embodiments of the utility model are described in detail, but the above contents are only preferred embodiments of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the utility model should still fall within the scope of this patent.
