Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of commercial refrigerators, in particular to a refrigerator capable of recycling condensed water to make ice. Background Art

[0002] A freezer usually refers to a refrigerated display cabinet placed in a commercial place for selling refrigerated goods. It is widely used in retail stores, shopping malls, exhibition halls, restaurants and other places. It can store, sell or display food or floral arrangements. A freezer is usually equipped with freezer doors and a freezer shell. Depending on the size of the freezer, multiple freezer doors can be installed so that customers can clearly see the displayed goods.

[0003] When selling refrigerated goods, merchants will put the refrigerated goods in freezers for customers to choose and purchase. After purchasing, customers need to take the goods home for refrigeration as soon as possible to avoid deterioration of the goods after thawing. However, the existing freezers in shopping malls can only freeze the goods in the freezers, but not the goods outside the freezers, which causes inconvenience to customers who purchase refrigerated goods. In addition, the freezer doors and freezer shells of existing freezers usually have condensed water on the inside and outside of the freezers when the freezers are refrigerating due to the difference in internal and external temperatures and the frequent opening of the freezer doors. The longer the condensed water accumulates, the more water will accumulate. Under the influence of natural gravity, it will flow and slide downward. If the condensed water is allowed to flow in the gaps between the freezers for a long time, it will gather into water surfaces and puddles on the ground where the freezers are located, which is not conducive to the flow of people nearby and may also cause safety hazards such as slipping, slipping, and falling. In addition, the condensed water will be contaminated with dust in the process of flowing and sliding, and it is easy to breed bacteria and viruses if it accumulates for too long.

[0004] In view of the above shortcomings, freezers need to be improved to reduce the safety hazards posed by condensed water to customers, and to maintain the refrigeration effect of goods, so as to meet the needs of customers who do not need to transfer and refrigerate refrigerated goods immediately after purchasing them.

[0028] The implementation modes of the present utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a freezer capable of recycling condensed water for making ice comprises a freezer body 100, a condensed water tank 200, an ice-making device 300 and a purification device 400. The condensed water tank 200 is arranged at the bottom of the freezer body 100 for collecting condensed water flowing out of the freezer. The condensed water tank 200 is provided with a driver for conveying condensed water. The condensed water tank 200 conveys water to the ice-making device 300 through a water pipe 500 through the driver to provide a water source required for ice making. The purification device 400 is arranged between the condensed water tank 200 and the ice-making device 300.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the glass hidden on the upper side of the chest freezer is used to display the interior of the freezer, so as to facilitate the explanation and display of the internal structure of the freezer.

[0031] Specifically, in some embodiments, the freezer body 100 is a cabinet body of the freezer for placing and displaying refrigerated goods. The freezer body 100 can be a vertical freezer or a horizontal freezer. Taking the horizontal freezer as an example, the horizontal freezer body 100 is provided with a cabinet door guide rail for installing a freezer door. The horizontal freezer body 100 can adopt a push-pull sliding door that moves along the length direction of the cabinet door guide rail. The freezer body 100 also includes a freezer outer shell arranged on the outside and a freezer inner shell arranged on the inside. A heat insulation layer is arranged between the freezer outer shell and the freezer inner shell. The heat insulation layer can be made of foam material or heat insulation material to reduce the condensation reaction caused by the temperature difference between the freezer outer shell and the freezer inner shell. The condensation water tank 200 is a water tank installed at the bottom of the freezer for collecting and storing condensation water. The condensation water tank 200 is provided There is a water pump 26 for conveying water flow. The water pump 26 is a device for increasing the water flow pressure. It mainly solves the problem that the water pressure in the water pipe 500 is insufficient to supply water to the ice-making device 300, ensuring that the water flow can reach the required flow rate and pressure. The water pump 26 increases the water pressure flowing to the ice-making device 300 to meet the water supply requirements. The ice-making device 300 is an ice-making machine installed on the refrigerator body 100 for making ice cubes. The water pump 26 of the condensation water tank 200 is connected to the ice-making device 300 through the water pipe 500. When started, the water pump 26 pumps the condensed water accumulated in the condensation water tank 200 to the ice-making device 300 through the water pipe 500. The ice-making device 300 cools and freezes the condensed water to form ice cubes, and then outputs and packages them into bagged ice cubes for customers to refrigerate and preserve. This realizes the conversion of condensed water into ice cubes that can be preserved and refrigerated.

[0032] Specifically, in some embodiments, the purification device 400 is a water purification device installed between the condensation water tank 200 and the ice making device 300 for filtering and disinfecting condensation water. The purification device 400 can adopt one or a combination of multiple water purification devices such as optical disinfection equipment, chemical disinfection equipment or filter element filtering equipment. Condensation water will be contaminated with dust during the flow and slide down, and it is easy to breed bacteria and viruses if it accumulates for too long. By filtering and disinfecting during the transportation process by the purification device 400, impurities and pathogens in the transportation water source can be reduced, making the produced ice cubes more hygienic, avoiding the ice cubes from contaminating refrigerated goods after melting and causing damage to the personal health of customers, and making it convenient for customers to use.

[0033] Specifically, in some embodiments, the freezer body 100 can be an upright freezer or a horizontal freezer. Taking the upright freezer as an example, unlike the horizontal freezer, the upright freezer body 100 is provided with a plurality of shelves for placing goods along the height direction, and the freezer door of the upright freezer body 100 is a double door hinged on the freezer body 100.

[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the purification device 400 includes a filtering device 41, which is arranged between the condensation water tank 200 and the ice-making device 300, the input end of the filtering device 41 is connected to the condensation water tank 200, the output end of the filtering device 41 is connected to the ice-making device 300, and a filter element for filtering impurities is provided inside the filtering device 41.

[0035] Specifically, in some embodiments, the filter device 41 is a type of filter element filtering device used in the purification device 400. The water pump 26 pumps water into the filter element to filter out impurities or eliminate odors, thereby achieving the effect of filtering water quality. The filter device 41 is arranged on the water pipe 500 between the condensation water tank 200 and the ice-making device 300. The input end of the filter device 41 is connected to the water pipe 500 extending from the condensation water tank 200, and the output end of the filter device 41 is connected to the water pipe 500 extending to the ice-making device 300. The filter device 41 can use a single filter element to filter water quality to save filtering costs, or use a variety of different filter elements in series to filter to improve filtering quality. Users can actually choose according to different situations.

[0036] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the purification device 400 includes an ultraviolet disinfection device 42 , which is disposed between the filtering device 41 and the condensed water tank 200 , and the ultraviolet disinfection device 42 is provided with an ultraviolet generator irradiating toward the water pipe 500 .

[0037] Specifically, in some embodiments, the ultraviolet disinfection device 42 is a type of optical disinfection equipment used in the purification device 400. When the water pump 26 pumps the water source into and passes through the water pipe 500, the ultraviolet generator arranged on the outside of the water pipe 500 irradiates toward the water pipe 500, and destroys the nucleic acid (DNA, RNA) of the microorganism by utilizing the characteristics of ultraviolet rays to make it lose its biological activity. The ultraviolet generator can use a UV lamp. The ultraviolet rays in the UV-C band have high energy and a wavelength between 200 nanometers and 280 nanometers. It can penetrate the cell wall of the microorganism and enter the cell nucleus. The UV-C ultraviolet rays interact with the nucleic acid of the microorganism to produce a photobiochemical reaction, resulting in the connection and breakage of the DNA and RNA in the nucleic acid chain, thereby preventing the growth and reproduction of the microorganism. After ultraviolet irradiation, the DNA and RNA of the microorganism are damaged, and the ability to replicate and transmit genes is lost, resulting in the death of the microorganism or the loss of pathogenicity, thereby achieving the effect of disinfection and sterilization. The water pipe 500 can be made of a transparent material with high light transmittance to facilitate the ultraviolet light to pass through the water pipe to fully irradiate the transported water source.

[0038] like Figures 6 to 8 as well as Figure 3As shown, the input end of the condensation water tank 200 for water intake is arranged at the top of the condensation water tank 200, and the condensation water tank 200 is provided with a water storage chamber 21 for accommodating condensation water. The water storage chamber 21 is provided with a guide slope structure 22 inclined from the cavity wall toward the central depression.

[0039] Specifically, in some embodiments, the water storage chamber 21 is a chamber space of the condensation water tank 200 for storing and accommodating condensed water. The water storage chamber 21 is connected to the input end at the top of the condensation water tank 200. The input end at the top of the condensation water tank 200 is the water inlet of the condensation water tank 200. The condensed water on the outside and inside of the freezer can flow down along the side wall into the input end at the top of the condensation water tank 200, and flow into the water storage chamber 21 through the input end for accumulation and storage. The diversion slope structure 22 is an inclined surface structure arranged at the bottom of the water storage chamber 21 to facilitate the accumulation of the condensed water flowing in at the center of the water storage chamber 21. The diversion slope structure 22 can adopt an inclined curved surface or a flat surface. The guide slope structure 22 is concave and inclined from the wall of the water storage chamber 21 toward the center of the water storage chamber 21 from top to bottom, so as to prevent the condensed water from being too dispersed on the bottom plane of the water storage chamber 21 and being inconvenient for the water pump 26 to extract. When the condensed water accumulates to a certain amount, the water pump 26 can be started to pump the condensed water accumulated in the water storage chamber 21 to the ice-making device 300 through the water pipe 500. The ice-making device 300 cools and freezes the condensed water to form ice cubes, and then outputs and packages them into bagged ice cubes for customers to refrigerate and preserve. This realizes the conversion of condensed water into ice cubes that can be preserved and refrigerated.

[0040] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the water storage chamber 21 is installed with a water level detection component, and the water level detection component includes an upper water level sensor 23 and a lower water level sensor 24 . The installation height of the upper water level sensor 23 is greater than the installation height of the lower water level sensor 24 .

[0041] Specifically, in some embodiments, the water level detection component is a sensor component installed on the wall of the water storage chamber 21 for detecting the water level of condensed water accumulation. Excessive accumulation of condensed water will overflow the condensed water tank 200, and too little accumulation of condensed water will not be able to support the ice-making water consumption of the ice-making device 300. Therefore, an upper water level sensor 23 and a lower water level sensor 24 are respectively arranged at different positions on the wall of the water storage chamber 21. The upper water level sensor 23 is used to detect whether the water level of the condensed water is about to overflow the condensed water tank 200, and the lower water level sensor 24 is used to detect whether the water level of the condensed water is insufficient as the water consumption for a single ice-making. The upper water level sensor 23 and the lower water level sensor 24 are respectively electrically connected to the water pump 26 to control the start and stop of water source delivery, so as to avoid the water pump 26 from idling and pumping water in the absence of condensed water, and to avoid the condensed water overflowing the condensed water tank 200 and causing external pollution due to the water level rising but the water pump 26 is not started to pump water for ice-making.

[0042] Specifically, in some embodiments, the water level detection component also includes a weight sensor arranged at the bottom of the outer side of the condensation water tank 200, and the weight sensor is electrically connected to the water pump 26. The user can monitor the actual weight of the condensation water tank 200 in real time through the weight sensor to determine whether the water storage capacity in the water storage chamber 21 meets the water demand for ice making.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the outer side of the refrigerator body 100 is provided with a condensation water collecting groove 11 which is recessed toward the inside, and the condensation water collecting groove 11 is provided with a guide groove 12 which is recessed toward the bottom, and the guide groove 12 is connected to the water storage chamber 21 .

[0044] Specifically, in some embodiments, in order to further comprehensively collect the condensed water on the outside of the freezer body 100, a condensed water collecting groove 11 is arranged at the outer bottom of the freezer body 100 and around the outer periphery of the freezer body 100. The condensed water collecting groove 11 is located between the lowest shelf of the freezer and the condensed water tank 200. The condensed water collecting groove 11 is recessed toward the inside of the freezer body 100, so that the condensed water can flow into the groove when flowing through the condensed water collecting groove 11, thereby preventing the condensed water from flowing down to the ground and forming puddles. The interior of the condensed water collecting groove 11 is provided with a guide groove 12 connected to the input end of the condensed water tank 200. The guide groove 12 further guides the condensed water to the water storage chamber 21. The guide groove 12 can be connected to the water storage chamber 21 through a water pipe 500, or connected to the water storage chamber 21 through a channel structure integrally formed with the freezer shell, so as to facilitate the circulation of condensed water.

[0045] like Figures 6 to 8 as well as Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a condensate collecting tray 25, which is arranged between the guide groove 12 and the condensate tank 200. The condensate collecting tray 25 is inclined from the outside from top to bottom toward the condensate tank 200, and the output end of the condensate collecting tray 25 is connected to the input end of the condensate tank 200.

[0046] Specifically, in some embodiments, the condensate collection tray 25 is a guide structure installed between the guide groove 12 and the condensate water tank 200 for transitioning and receiving condensate. The condensate collection tray 25 adopts a thin-walled thin plate structure and fully covers the gap between the guide groove 12 and the condensate water tank 200. The condensate collection tray 25 can be made of metal stamping or plastic injection molding. The condensate collection tray 25 can be installed on the condensate water tank 200 by splicing, snapping or screw locking using a curved thin plate or a flat thin plate structure to prevent excessive condensate from overflowing the guide groove 12 and causing internal or external pollution. The condensate collection tray 25 is tilted from top to bottom from the outer shell of the freezer toward the center of the condensate water tank 200 to facilitate guiding and draining the condensate and gathering condensate from different directions on the outer periphery of the freezer.

[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the ice-making device 300 includes an ice-making module 31, an ice mold plate 32 and an ice storage chamber 33. The ice mold plate 32 is connected to the input end of the ice-making device 300 and is arranged on the upper side of the ice storage chamber 33. The ice-making module 31 is used to refrigerate the ice mold plate 32 and / or the ice storage chamber 33 so that water can condense into ice cubes in the ice mold plate 32. The ice storage chamber 33 is provided with an ice-taking port 331 connected to the outside, and the ice-taking port 331 is hinged with a covering door panel that can be opened or closed.

[0048] Specifically, in some embodiments, the ice-making module 31 is a refrigeration device in the ice-making device 300 that is mainly used for cooling and refrigerating so that the water source solidifies to form ice cubes. The ice-making module 31 includes components such as a compressor, a condenser or an evaporator. The ice template 32 is a water container in the ice-making device 300 for forming the shape of ice cubes. The covering door panel is hinged on the ice-taking port 331 for the customer to open or close, and can also be used to cover the ice-taking port 331 for sealing and heat preservation. The ice template 32 is provided with a plurality of ice grids for shaping ice cubes. The user can shape the ice cubes according to the desired shape. The ice template 32 with different ice cube shapes can be selected, and the water source delivered by the condensed water tank 200 is directly poured on the ice cube of the ice template 32. After startup, the ice making module 31 cools the condensed water in the ice template 32 to form solid ice cubes. A small amount of water can be placed in the ice storage cavity 33 to prevent melting and adhesion between multiple ice cubes. After the ice template 32 stores the solidified ice cubes in the ice storage cavity 33, the customer can open the covering door panel and enter the ice storage cavity 33 from the ice taking port 331, scoop up the ice cubes with a shovel and put them into a shopping bag or a packaging box to keep the goods fresh.

[0049] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the ice-making device 300 includes a shaking mechanism 34 for shaking off ice cubes, and the ice template 32 is installed on the ice storage chamber 33 through the shaking mechanism 34. The shaking mechanism 34 is provided with a shaking generator, a shaking shaft and a shaft motor for driving the shaking shaft. The shaking mechanism 34 is used to drive the ice template 32 to rotate so that the ice cubes fall to the bottom of the ice storage chamber 33.

[0050] Specifically, in some embodiments, the shaking mechanism 34 is an ice-making device 300 used to shake off the ice cubes formed by the ice template 32. The shaking mechanism 34 is installed on the top of the ice storage chamber 33 and fixedly connected to the ice template 32. The shaking generator can be driven by a vibration motor, and the shaft motor can be driven by a stepping motor to rotate the shaking shaft to realize the circumferential rotation of the ice template 32 around the shaking shaft. The shaking generator and the shaking shaft are both electrically connected to the ice-making device 300. After startup, the high-frequency vibration of the shaking generator can make the ice cubes separate from the ice grid of the ice template 32. The shaking shaft is controlled to rotate the ice template 32 to a certain angle so that the ice cubes are affected by natural gravity and slide into the ice storage chamber 33. The shaking shaft is then controlled to rotate so that the ice template 32 is reset and can continue to be filled with water to make ice, thereby achieving the effect of automatic falling and resetting of the ice cubes after they are formed.

[0051] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the filtering device 41 includes a first filter and a second filter, the input end of the first filter is connected to the condensation water tank 200 , the output end of the first filter is connected to the input end of the second filter, and the output end of the second filter is connected to the ice-making device 300 .

[0052] Specifically, in some embodiments, the filter device 41 is composed of two or more groups of filters and filters the condensed water. The first filter is a filter device in the filter device 41 that is mainly responsible for filtering particulate pollutants, organic compounds, odors, colors, residual chlorine and other substances in the water source. As the first filtration line of the filter device 41, it improves the purity of the ice cubes and eliminates the odor of the ice cubes. The second filter is a filter device 41 that is mainly responsible for removing soluble solids, heavy metals, organic matter, bacteria, viruses and other particles in the water, further purifying the ice cubes and reducing the bacteria in the ice cubes. When the water from the condensed water tank 200 passes through the filter device 41, it first enters the first filter for processing, and then enters the second filter for processing after flowing out of the first filter. Only after flowing out of the second filter can it continue to be transported subsequently.

[0053] Preferably, in some embodiments, the first filter is a PPC composite filter element, and the second filter is an RO reverse osmosis filter element. The PPC composite filter element is a common water dispenser filter element component, also known as a granular activated carbon filter element, which is mainly composed of granular activated carbon and granular polypropylene filter materials. It is often arranged in the front filtering part of the filtration system. The PPC composite filter element performs preliminary filtration on the condensed water to filter out particulate pollutants, organic compounds, odors, colors, residual chlorine and other substances. The water source that has been initially filtered by the PPC composite filter element can basically reach the level of safe drinking. The RO reverse osmosis filter element is a filter element used in a reverse osmosis water treatment system. The RO reverse osmosis filter element performs secondary filtration on the external water source, and filters the soluble solids, soluble salts, bacteria and other impurities in the water through a semi-permeable membrane (i.e., RO membrane), and uses high pressure to push water molecules through its micropores to filter out the soluble substances dissolved in the water. In addition, the RO filter element will also include some auxiliary filter materials, such as activated carbon filter layers, etc., which are used to remove particulate matter and chemical pollutants.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 7 As shown, the working principle of embodiment 1 of the utility model is as follows:

[0055] The refrigerator body 100 of the present embodiment is a horizontal refrigerator, and the refrigerator door of the present embodiment is a push-pull sliding door installed on the door guide rail of the refrigerator body 100 .

[0056] Before use, due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the freezer, when the water vapor in the air contacts the lower temperature surface on the outside of the freezer, the heat in the water vapor will be removed, causing the water vapor to condense into liquid water and remain on the surface of the outside or inside of the freezer. The more liquid water accumulates on the surface for a long time, the larger the volume of the water droplets. When the volume of the water droplets reaches a certain weight, they will slide toward the ground under the influence of natural gravity. The water droplets sliding down on the surface of the outside or inside of the freezer flow from the condensation water collection groove 11 at the bottom of the freezer into the guide groove 12, and are guided by the condensation water collection plate 25 to flow in the direction of the condensation water tank 200, and enter the water storage chamber 21 from the input end at the top of the condensation water tank 200 for accumulation and storage. The condensation water flows from the wall of the water storage chamber 21 to the guide slope structure 22. Affected by the top-down inclination of the guide slope structure 22 toward the water storage chamber 21, the condensation water accumulates in the center of the water storage chamber 21.

[0057] When the accumulated condensed water reaches the water level of the upper water level sensor 23, the upper water level sensor 23 is triggered to connect to the water pump 26 to start operation. The water pump 26 pumps the condensed water accumulated in the water storage chamber 21 to the filter device 41 through the water pipe 500. When the water from the condensed water tank 200 passes through the filter device 41, it first enters the first filter for processing. The first filter uses a PPC composite filter element, which is responsible for filtering particulate pollutants, organic compounds, odors, discoloration, and residual chlorine in the water source. After flowing out of the first filter, it enters the second filter for processing. The second filter uses an RO reverse osmosis filter element, which is responsible for removing the dissolved Impurities such as degradable solids, heavy metals, organic matter, bacteria and viruses continue to be transported in the water pipe 500 after flowing out of the second filter. When the water source passes through the water pipe 500 where the ultraviolet disinfection device 42 is located, the ultraviolet generator uses a UV lamp to irradiate the water source of the water pipe 500, and uses the characteristics of ultraviolet rays to destroy the nucleic acid (DNA, RNA) of the microorganisms to make them lose their biological activity. The ultraviolet rays interact with the nucleic acid of the microorganisms to produce a photobiochemical reaction, which causes the connection between DNA and RNA in the nucleic acid chain to break, causing the microorganisms to die or lose their pathogenicity, thereby achieving the effect of disinfection and sterilization.

[0058] The water source disinfected by the ultraviolet disinfection device 42 reaches the ice-making device 300, and the water source is directly poured on the ice grid of the ice template 32. The ice-making module 31 cools the water in the ice template 32 to form solid ice cubes. The shaking mechanism 34 makes the ice cubes separate from the ice grid of the ice template 32 through the high-frequency vibration of the shaking generator, and controls the shaking shaft to rotate the ice template 32 to a certain angle so that the ice cubes are affected by natural gravity and slide into the ice storage chamber 33. The shaking shaft is then controlled to rotate so that the ice template 32 is reset and can continue to be filled with water to make ice, so that the ice cubes automatically fall and reset after being formed. After the ice template 32 stores the solidified ice cubes in the ice storage chamber 33, the customer can enter from the ice taking port 331 and take the ice cubes for use, or pack them into bagged ice cube packages for customers to refrigerate and preserve them, thereby converting condensed water into ice cubes that can be preserved and refrigerated.

[0059] When the water level of the condensed water accumulated in the water storage chamber 21 drops to the water level where the lower water level sensor 24 is located, the lower water level sensor 24 is triggered to connect to the water pump 26 to stop operating, thereby preventing the water pump 26 from idling and pumping water in the absence of condensed water. When the accumulated condensed water reaches the water level where the upper water level sensor 23 is located, the upper water level sensor 23 is triggered again to connect to the water pump 26 to start operating, thereby achieving the effect of automatically detecting the amount of water to pump water and make ice.

[0060] like Figures 4 to 6 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the working principle of embodiment 2 of the utility model is as follows:

[0061] Different from the first embodiment, the refrigerator body 100 of the present embodiment is a vertical refrigerator, and the refrigerator door of the present embodiment is a double-opening door hinged on the refrigerator body 100 .

[0062] The above examples are only used to further illustrate the technical content of the utility model, so that readers can understand it more easily, but it does not mean that the implementation methods of the utility model are limited to this. Any technical extension or re-creation made based on the utility model is protected by the utility model. The protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the claims.
