Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat pump evaporators, in particular to an air source heat pump evaporator capable of delaying frosting. Background Art

[0002] Heat pump evaporator: The evaporator is a heat exchanger in the air source heat pump system. Its function is to absorb low-temperature heat energy from the outside air. When working, the low-temperature refrigerant passes through the evaporator and exchanges heat with the outside air, so that the refrigerant evaporates and absorbs heat. This process makes the outside air cooler and the refrigerant becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure gas. Its principle is the same as that of the air conditioner outdoor unit. It is an auxiliary equipment to increase the contact area between the cooling medium and the air.

[0003] During the use of the existing air source heat pump evaporator, when the external humidity is high or in rainy and snowy weather, the air source heat pump evaporator needs to absorb heat. The temperature of the air source heat pump evaporator is low, so the water vapor in the air is easy to condense on the outer surface of the heat sink to form small droplets. Affected by the liquid tension and dust, the wind speed of the fan that promotes air circulation in conjunction with the air source heat pump evaporator is basically fixed. Based on the maximum wind force of the auxiliary fan, since its air circulation speed has a maximum limit, as long as the adsorption force caused by the liquid tension of the small droplets and the dust is greater than the thrust brought by the air circulation speed, the small droplets will be adsorbed on the outside of the heat sink and cannot be discharged, causing freezing when the temperature continues to drop, that is, frosting. Therefore, the air source heat pump evaporator in the prior art is very easy to frost. In view of the above problems, an air source heat pump evaporator that can delay frosting is specially proposed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] 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.

[0026] See also Figure 1-7 The utility model provides a technical solution: an air source heat pump evaporator capable of delaying frosting, comprising a heat exchange evaporator 1, a defrosting mechanism 2 is installed outside the heat exchange evaporator 1, a plurality of exhaust ports 28 are arranged outside the defrosting mechanism 2, and the air outlets of the exhaust ports 28 correspond to the gaps of the heat sink 14 of the heat exchange evaporator 1;

[0027] The defrosting mechanism 2 includes a reinforcing rod 21, a bellows 27 is arranged parallel to the axial direction of the reinforcing rod 21, and an exhaust port 28 is opened at the outer wall position of the wave crest of the bellows 27;

[0028] The defrost mechanism 2 can input airflow at the center axis position of the gap of the heat sink 14, and the defrost mechanism 2 can run linearly along the center axis position of the gap of the heat sink 14, or rotate, or run linearly and rotate at the same time.

[0029] The utility model provides an air heat pump evaporator with a defrost mechanism 2. When in use, the defrost mechanism 2 can rotate a bellows 27 of appropriate length according to the size of the heat pump evaporator and the position of a conventional heat sink 14, and after the spacing of the bellows 27 is adjusted to be consistent through uniform pressing, it corresponds to the gap position of the heat sink 14 one by one, and then air or other high-efficiency gas that prevents water vapor condensation is passed through the bellows 27 through an external air source and discharged through an exhaust port 28 that corresponds to the gap of the heat sink 14 one by one, finally achieving the elimination of water vapor condensation droplets on the outside of the heat sink 14, thereby maximizing the effect of delaying frosting of the air source heat pump evaporator, and effectively solving the problem of easy frosting caused by different wind zone flow rates and insufficient local wind speed when the existing air source heat pump evaporator adopts a single-axis large fan to improve the heat exchange between the air and the evaporator, resulting in the failure to timely remove the condensed water droplets on the outside of the heat sink 14 and the circulation pipeline 13.

[0030] Specifically, the heat exchange evaporator 1 includes a frame 11, one end of which is equipped with a connecting pipe 12, one end of which is connected to an external air source heat pump device, and the other end of which is equipped with a circulation pipe 13, and a heat sink 14 is sleeved on the outside of the circulation pipe 13.

[0031] The heat exchange evaporator 1 provided by the present invention is one form of an air source heat pump evaporator. Since the arrangement of the heat sink 14 is a very common prior art, the defrosting mechanism 2 with adjustable spacing has higher adaptability.

[0032] Specifically, a transmission mechanism is installed on both sides of the frame 11, located inside the air inlet end of the heat dissipation auxiliary fan, and the transmission mechanism includes a linear transmission mechanism, or a rotary transmission structure, or a rotary transmission structure is installed outside the displacement end of the linear transmission mechanism;

[0033] The linear transmission mechanism includes a screw transmission mechanism, a linear guide rail and other driving mechanisms that can realize the overall displacement of the defrosting mechanism 2 through the displacement member, and is suitable for use in a limited installation position but with a large distribution gap of the circulation pipeline, and can blow out the condensed water droplets through a single wind direction;

[0034] The rotation transmission structure includes a worm gear drive structure, a gear direct drive structure, and the like, which can drive the defrosting mechanism 2 to rotate around the axis of the bellows 27 by driving the transmission member 24 to rotate. It is suitable for a plurality of installation positions. At the same time, the air flow inside the gap of the heat sink 14 can be delivered to the right position by adjusting the direction of the air outlet. By changing the direction of the air outlet, water droplets in the gaps with complex routes can be blown out by changing the flow direction.

[0035] It is also possible to achieve a unique method of assembling the rotating transmission structure with the displacement end of the linear transmission mechanism to achieve a method that can drive the defrost mechanism 2 and the rotating transmission structure to move linearly as a whole, and can also drive the defrost mechanism 2 to rotate through the rotating transmission structure. This method is suitable for the use of the defrost mechanism 2 with a large area and limited installation space. Combining the above two advantages, it can blow out water droplets better and more effectively.

[0036] Specifically, the outer sleeve of the reinforcement rod 21 is equipped with a positioning piece 22, and the other side of the positioning piece 22 is integrally formed with a clamping claw, which can be clamped on the outer wall of the trough of the corrugated tube 27. The number of clamping claws used needs to be determined according to the length and span of the corrugated tube 27. The main function is to maintain relative stability between the corrugated tube 27 and the reinforcement rod 27, and the positioning piece 22 can be rotatably fixed or slidably installed. In addition to selecting a smaller number of positioning pieces according to the large spacing to meet the stability effect, a positioning piece 22 can also be set on the outer wall of the trough of each corrugated tube 27, and the trough spacing of the corrugated tube 27 can be controlled by fixing the position of the positioning piece 22.

[0037] Specifically, connecting parts 23 are fixedly assembled at both ends of the reinforcement rod 21, and a transmission part 24 is arranged on the outer side of the connecting part 23 at a position coincident with the axis of the bellows 27. The transmission part 24 is transmission-connected to the displacement end of the linear transmission mechanism, or the output end of the rotating transmission structure, or the output end of the rotating transmission structure assembled on the outer side of the displacement end of the linear transmission mechanism. The transmission part 24 can be assembled with the output end of the corresponding driving structure by bolts according to the different transmission modes and the structural shape of the connecting part 23. Due to its uncertainty, its specific driving mode is not redundantly displayed in this application, and it can be assembled or meshed according to the output end openings of various existing driving mechanisms of suitable sizes.

[0038] Specifically, a rotating joint 25 capable of maintaining sealing and rotating is installed at the center of the transmission member 24, a middle fixed member of the rotating joint 25 is installed at the axial center of the transmission member 24, one end of the outer rotating member of the rotating joint 25 is connected to the bellows 27, and the other end of the outer rotating member of the rotating joint 25 is connected to the external air supply source;

[0039] External gas sources include cold and hot air, cold and hot carbon dioxide or other hydrophobic agents and other auxiliary agents that reduce the attachment of water vapor and water droplets. The above gas sources can select appropriate gas delivery pumps or atomization equipment according to their main components and temperature output methods to ensure the input of specific auxiliary raw materials for water droplet condensation;

[0040] Generally, it is preferred to use an air pump with a heater to input hot air as the input gas for the bellows 27, which has low cost and high evaporation efficiency.

[0041] Specifically, the outer end of the bellows 27 is pressed to form a butt joint 26, which is sealed and fixed to one end of the outer rotating part of the rotating joint 25. When the bellows 27 is cut according to the required length, the outer wall at the trough position can be pressed into the butt joint 26 using a copper tube expander.

[0042] The bellows 27 is preferably an aluminum bellows, but may also be a heat-resistant and aging-resistant plastic bellows with a steel ring reinforced inside, or a copper bellows, etc.

[0043] Specifically, the crest spacing of the bellows 27 can be adjusted according to the number of slits of the heat sink 14 and the slit spacing of the heat sink 14 .

[0044] When adjusting the spacing of the bellows 27, a spiral structure with the same pitch as the heat sink 14 can be used to engage with the inner gap of the trough of the bellows 27 to achieve adjustment. Alternatively, a structure similar to a vise that can adjust the spacing gap can be used to determine a fixed spacing, and then each trough socket can be rotated at least one circle to achieve spacing adjustment. When the hardness of the heat sink 14 meets the requirements, the outer wall of the crest of the bellows 27 can also be directly placed into the gap of the heat sink 14 to shape it.

[0045] Specifically, the center lines of all the exhaust ports 28 coincide with a virtual straight line, and the virtual straight line is parallel to the axis of the reinforcement rod 21 .

[0046] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
