Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat dissipation of electrical equipment, in particular to a noise reduction device and an inverter for electrical equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the new energy industry, the power of electrical equipment is getting bigger and bigger. In order to better dissipate heat from the equipment, more and more fans are installed in the equipment. At the same time, the running noise of the equipment is getting louder and louder. Noise reduction has become a difficulty for the equipment.

[0003] Take the inverter as an example. The inverter is a device that converts direct current into alternating current. It is widely used in new energy industries such as photovoltaic power generation and wind power generation. During continuous use, the inductor and other devices installed in the inverter will generate heat, which will have an adverse effect on the normal use of the inverter. Therefore, a fan is usually installed in the inverter to dissipate heat from the inverter.

[0004] In the prior art, a fan guard is usually provided at the air inlet on the inverter box. The sound produced by the vibration of the round edge of the fan guard when the airflow passes through is lower than the sound produced by the vibration of the edge of the sheet metal opening. Since the fan generates broadband noise when it is running, it brings a bad user experience. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0040] Combine the following Figures 1 to 4 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.

[0041] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the one hand, as Figures 1 to 4As shown, a noise reduction device for electrical equipment is provided, including an air duct plate 1, a fixing frame 4 and a fan 5. The interior of the air duct plate 1 is a cavity. The air duct plate 1 is suitable for being installed on the outer wall of a box body 7 on one side of which a radiator 8 is arranged. An air inlet 2 and an air outlet 3 are provided on the air duct plate 1. The fixing frame 4 is installed inside the air duct plate 1. An air inlet channel is formed between the fixing frame 4 and the air duct plate 1. The air inlet channel is connected to the air inlet 2. An air outlet channel is formed between the fixing frame 4 and the radiator 8. The air outlet channel is connected to the air outlet 3. The fan 5 is fixedly installed on the fixing frame 4. The fan 5 is suitable for conveying air from the air inlet channel to the air outlet channel. The fan 5 and the air inlet 2 are staggered in height.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the air duct plate 1 is in the shape of a rectangular shell, and its size is not larger than that of the inverter box 7. The air duct plate 1 is covered on one side of the box 7 where the radiator 8 is provided. The air inlet 2 and the air outlet 3 are respectively provided on two adjacent side surfaces of the air duct plate 1.

[0043] In this embodiment, the fixing frame 4 is fixedly installed in the cavity inside the air duct plate 1, and a fan 5 is installed on the fixing frame 4. The fan 5 is not arranged directly opposite the air inlet 2. When the fan 5 is working, air enters the air inlet channel from the air inlet 2 from the external environment, and the fan 5 then passes the air through the air outlet channel through the radiator 8 and is output from the air outlet 3.

[0044] The utility model forms an air inlet channel between the fixing frame 4 and the air duct plate 1, and an air outlet channel between the fixing frame 4 and the radiator 8 when the air duct plate 1 is installed on the box body 7.

During the air flow, the heat in the radiator 8 can be taken away, thereby reducing the temperature of the radiator 8. Since the fan 5 and the air inlet 2 are staggered in height, the air inlet 2 and the fan 5 are misaligned, which can prevent the noise of the fan 5 from being directly directed to the air inlet 2, thereby reducing the noise generated by the fan 5 during operation and improving the user experience.

In this embodiment, the air guide portion 401 is cavity-shaped on the side of the air duct plate 1, and the air guide portion 401 is covered and fixedly installed on the air inlet 2.

[0047] The utility model fixes the air guide part 401 to the air inlet 2 and covers the air inlet 2, which can allow external air to enter the air inlet channel smoothly on the one hand, and prevent the air from entering the air duct plate 1 and causing backflow on the other hand, thereby ensuring that the airflow direction flows from the air inlet 2 to the air outlet 3.

[0048] In one embodiment, the distance between the air duct plate 1 and the air guiding portion 401 is not less than 20 mm.

[0049] In the present invention, the distance between the air duct plate 1 and the air guide portion 401 is set to be no less than 20 mm, which can ensure that there is enough air intake in the air intake channel.

They are subjected to friction and viscous resistance of air molecules, and small fibers are mechanically vibrated, thereby converting sound energy into heat energy to achieve noise absorption.

[0052] The utility model provides a sound absorbing member 6 on the side of the fixing frame 4 facing the air duct plate 1, so that the noise generated by the fan 5 is reflected on the inner wall of the air inlet channel and absorbed by the sound absorbing member 6, thereby reducing the noise output to the external environment.
