Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air-conditioning heat pump heating and hot water systems. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, while meeting the needs of indoor heating, air conditioning and hot water provision, energy conservation and low-carbon environmental protection are also required. The current household air conditioners produce cooling capacity for the indoor space in summer while emitting a large amount of heat energy to the outdoors. If it can be collected for making hot water, the hot water obtained will not cost money. In areas with indoor centralized heating in spring, autumn and winter, air conditioners are idle for a long time, and unused equipment is more likely to be damaged. In addition to solar water heaters, heat pump water heaters are also available for cheap domestic hot water. Solar water heaters are affected by the weather, and it is difficult to provide hot water on rainy days, and they are also not easy to use for residents in high-rise buildings. Heat pump water heaters are composed of compressors, air heat exchangers (evaporators), hot water heat exchangers (condensers), and throttles. They absorb the heat energy of outdoor air, consume the electricity used to compress the refrigerant and increase the pressure, and produce hot water, which is more energy-efficient than electric water heaters. 70% or more; however, the heat pump water heater has a single function; and the traditional air conditioner has only two functions of cooling and heating in winter, and cannot make hot water; therefore, the existing large-scale traditional air conditioners can be transformed into a machine that can use the waste heat discharged by the air conditioner to make domestic hot water in summer, and can use the heat energy absorbed from the outdoor air to make hot water in spring and autumn and in areas with centralized heating, which not only saves energy but also fully improves the utilization rate of the equipment, and is of great significance; for this purpose, many patents for the three-in-one machine for heating, cooling, air conditioning and hot water have been proposed, and even I have studied for more than 20 years, and have applied for and obtained many authorized patents, but there are still some shortcomings, either the system structure is complicated or the newly added three-way valve accessories need to be developed and manufactured separately, which have not been adopted by manufacturers. The single throttling front water heat exchanger for heating, cooling and hot water three-in-one machine (patent number ZL 2016100930781), a four-mode hot and cold water machine with a front water heat exchanger (application number: 2016100930777), uses a high-pressure gas-liquid separator to avoid the problem of insufficient refrigerant in the fluorine circuit caused by the refrigerant condensate generated when the hot water heat exchanger makes hot water passing through the outdoor heat exchanger or the indoor heat exchanger, thereby saving a three-way valve. However, four one-way valves are still needed to assist in controlling the throttle, and the structure is still complicated; therefore, it has not been promoted and needs to be improved. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing heat pump water heaters with single functions, the air conditioners with only cooling and heating functions, and the inability to use the heat discharged to the environment during cooling in summer to make hot water, as well as the complex refrigerant circuits, high failure rates and unstable operations of many air conditioning water heater patents, the utility model proposes a two-capillary self-throttling four-circulation cold and warm water heater, which is a four-circulation cold and warm water heater with two throttling capillaries self-divided by a single four-way valve. Only by switching a four-way valve, four fluorine circuit cycles can be organized, and three operating modes can be used to complete the three functions of hot water making, cooling and heating; in summer, hot water can be obtained for free while cooling, and the cooling efficiency can be improved; in spring and autumn, hot water making saves more than 75% of electricity than electric water heaters; in winter, the COP of heat pump heating can also be around 3.0, with obvious energy-saving effects. It is a good product for improving quality, energy saving and low carbon that the people just need, and has broad market prospects.

[0013] The third operation mode is the winter heating or heating hot water and automatic hot water mode. The fluorine circuit mainly executes the fourth cycle and has the first cycle. The four-way valve is in the heating position (①③, ②④) and is connected. The compressor, indoor fan or water circulation pump, and outdoor fan are all running. When the water heat exchanger and the hot water tank are split, the hot water circulation pump is running. It starts when the room temperature T3 is lower than the set room temperature T3a, and stops when it reaches the set room temperature T3a. This mode is used when heating is needed in winter.

[0014] In the automatic operation mode, the principle of giving priority to hot water making is implemented, and the first operation mode is preferred, that is, the start and stop of the compressor and the fan of the first operation mode of hot water making are automatically determined based on the comparison between the hot water temperature T1 and the upper and lower limits T1a and T1b of the set hot water temperature; when the hot water temperature T1 reaches the set upper limit T1b of the hot water temperature, the second or third operation mode is automatically selected based on the positive or negative difference between the room temperature T3 and the set room temperature T3a; if neither the second or third operation mode is met, the first operation mode is stopped; the above four operation modes all have the function of making hot water.

[0015] The two-capillary self-conducting throttling four-circulation cold and warm water machine described in the utility model is characterized in that: when the hot water heat exchanger is a hot water heat exchanger integrated with a hot water tank, it is a three-body structure: an outdoor body, an indoor body and an integrated hot water heat exchanger; the outdoor body is equipped with: a compressor, a four-way valve, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, a two-way throttle, a first and a second capillary throttle, and a gas-liquid separator; the indoor body is equipped with: an indoor heat exchanger, an indoor fan, and a control panel; the fluorine path between the three bodies, that is, the fluorine path between the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger and the hot water heat exchanger, needs to be connected through two groups of four detachable connecting pipes.

[0016] The two-capillary self-guided throttling four-circulation cold and warm water machine described in the utility model is characterized in that its hot water heat exchanger is a plate heat exchanger or a sleeve heat exchanger, and when it is installed in an outdoor machine body, its fluorine circulation loop is a two-body structure; the hot water heat exchanger installed in the outdoor machine body is connected to the second outlet of the compressor and the first interface of the first and second capillary throttling devices, all by welding; the water circuit of the hot water heat exchanger is interconnected with the hot water tank through the hot water circulation loop, and the hot water circulation loop is equipped with a hot water circulation pump.

[0017] The two-capillary self-throttling four-circulation cold and warm water machine described in the utility model is characterized in that when the indoor heat exchanger is a water heat exchanger for air conditioning and heating, the water heat exchanger is moved and installed on the top of the outdoor machine body, and the fluorine circuits formed are concentrated in the outdoor machine body, which is called an integrated two-capillary self-throttling four-circulation cold and warm water machine; the indoor air conditioning and heating functions of the integrated two-capillary self-throttling four-circulation cold and warm water machine are completed by the air conditioning water circulation circuit and the circulating water pump connected to the water heat exchanger and the indoor fan coil heat exchanger; during the refrigeration cycle, the water heat exchanger produces chilled water, the circulating water pump operates, and the chilled water passes through the coil fan to blow cold air into the room; during the heating cycle, the water heat exchanger produces hot water for heating, the circulating water pump operates, and the hot water for heating passes through the coil fan to blow warm air into the room.

[0018] The innovative features of this utility model mainly include:

[0019] 1. The two-capillary self-throttling four-cycle cold and warm water machine described in the utility model has the following innovative features: a second interface is separated at the compressor outlet to connect the air inlet of the added hot water heat exchanger, and the liquid outlet at the bottom of the hot water heat exchanger is connected to the second interface (liquid inlet) of the outdoor and indoor heat exchangers respectively through the first and second capillary throttles. Therefore, by using the original cold and warm air conditioner circuit and the same compressor, two new hot water heat pump cycles of the hot water heat exchanger (which is a condenser) and the indoor and outdoor heat exchangers (which are evaporators) are newly constructed; this invention produces three unexpected effects: (1) Regardless of whether the air conditioner water machine performs a cooling or heating cycle, the two-capillary self-throttling four-cycle cold and warm water machine of the utility model can produce hot water without the need to add an additional control valve; (2) The condensate of the hot water heat exchanger passes through the two-way capillary throttles and is automatically condensed by the pressure difference between the compressor outlet and the indoor or outdoor heat exchanger when used as an evaporator. The throttling passage is dynamically selected to form a dual-source hot water heating cycle of the indoor or outdoor heat exchanger and the hot water heat exchanger; during the independent hot water heating cycle, although the compressor exhaust will flow through the four-way valve to the indoor or outdoor heat exchanger whose fan is stopped and not working, due to the lack of circulation and the fan is also stopped, the high-pressure refrigerant gas is blocked by the capillary throttle, so only the hot water heat exchanger and the indoor and outdoor heat exchangers used as evaporators can perform the hot water heating cycle; (3) The compressor outlet and the first interface of the four-way valve are kept connected, thus maintaining the cooling and heating functions of the original air conditioner; this is a magical invention. The theoretical basis of the invention is based on a deep understanding of the refrigeration principle and the thermal properties of the refrigerant, and it is found that the throttle is a passage for liquids and a blocker for gases; the above three innovations make the air conditioner water heater with four cycles of cooling, heating and dual-source hot water heating extremely simple and novel, and it is an original utility model.

[0020] 2. The two-capillary self-guided throttling four-circulation hot and cold water heater described in the utility model can achieve the three functions of hot water making, cooling and heating only by switching a four-way valve and coordinating the start and stop of the indoor heat exchanger fan; the system has a simple structure, convenient control and reliable operation.

[0021] 3. The two-capillary self-throttling four-cycle cold and warm water machine described in the utility model adopts the first operation mode in spring and autumn, absorbing heat from the outdoor to make hot water, which saves 70-75% of electricity compared with electric water heaters; in summer, the second refrigeration mode is implemented to simultaneously make hot water, and the obtained hot water is completely free; because the refrigeration gas can also produce enough hot water in summer, there is no need to set up a second separate refrigeration and hot water operation mode, which simplifies the control; in areas with heating in winter, the two-capillary self-throttling four-cycle cold and warm water machine can execute the first operation mode to make hot water cheaply; the hot water stored in the hot water tank can provide heat for the system defrosting cycle; it can be seen that the two-capillary self-throttling four-cycle cold and warm water machine described in the utility model has obvious energy-saving effect.

[0022] 4. The two-capillary self-guided throttling four-circulation cold and warm water heater described in the utility model has a simple refrigerant circulation circuit for the whole machine and is easy to manufacture; there are three combinations, which are easy to transport and install, especially the one-piece fluorine path connections are all welded, which will never leak fluorine and is easy to install; the three operating modes are only required through the replacement of a four-way valve, which is only a few times a year, and in normal operation, it is only necessary to control the start and stop of the compressor and coordinate the start and stop of the indoor and outdoor fans to achieve the optimal energy-saving operation mode, which is easy to use.

[0023] In summary, the two-capillary self-guided throttling four-circulation hot and cold water machine described in the utility model has clear novelty and obvious practicality, and meets the requirements of utility model patents. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
