[0043] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, as a first aspect of the embodiment of the utility model, a vehicle refrigerator 20 is proposed. Figure 1 The control principle structure diagram of the vehicle refrigerator 20 of the vehicle 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model is schematically shown. The vehicle refrigerator 20 is applied to the vehicle 100. The vehicle 100 includes an air conditioning device 10. Figure 2The control principle structure diagram of the air conditioning device 10 of the automobile 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model is schematically shown.

Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, Figure 7 is a schematic structural diagram of the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 in a stacked state, Figure 8 for Figure 7 The first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 shown in the figure are in a stacked state at a second viewing angle, and the vehicle refrigerator 20 is used to refrigerate items, wherein the vehicle refrigerator 20 includes a second condenser 21, the second condenser 21 is connected to the first condenser 11, and at least a portion of the second condenser 21 is stacked with the first condenser 11.

[0044] It should be noted that the second condenser 21 and the first condenser 11 are stacked, or staggered, that is, the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 are partially overlapped, and the two are in an overlapping state. As an alternative, all the second condensers 21 are located on one side of the first condenser 11, that is, all the second condensers 21 cover part or all of the first condenser 11. Figure 8 In the embodiment, the first condenser 11 is located at one side of the second condenser 21 , and the first condenser 11 can cover a portion of the surface of the second condenser 21 facing the first condenser 11 .

[0045] Specifically, the second condenser 21 can adopt a wire tube condenser, which is made of Bondi tubes bent into multiple S shapes and spot welded with multiple heat dissipation wires 212. It has a small size, light weight, good heat dissipation effect, and is easy to mechanized production. The heat transfer coefficient is about 50% higher than that of a flat plate condenser and 10%-15% higher than that of a louvered condenser.

[0046] According to the vehicle refrigerator 20 of the utility model, by connecting the second condenser 21 of the vehicle refrigerator 20 and the first condenser 11 of the air-conditioning equipment 10, and stacking at least part of the second condenser 21 and the first condenser 11, the second condenser 21 and the first condenser 11 can be placed together without occupying space separately, thereby reducing the space occupied by the vehicle refrigerator 20.

[0049] Usually, if Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The schematic diagram of the structure of the automobile 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model is schematically shown. Generally, the automobile 100 includes a front storage compartment 30 and a rear storage compartment 50, wherein the first condenser 11 is located in the front storage compartment 30. In the utility model, the second condenser 21 is also arranged in the front storage compartment 30, wherein the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 constitute a combined condenser 60, and compared with the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 being placed separately, the total space occupied by the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 can be reduced. Of course, the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 here can also be arranged at other positions in the automobile 100, which can also reduce the total space occupied by the combined condenser 60.

[0050] The following description will focus on the connection between the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 .

[0051] Optionally, the second condenser 21 and the first condenser 11 are connected by means of snap-on, bonding, welding or connectors, wherein the bonding can be achieved by using double-sided tape or the like to achieve the connection between the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21. As an alternative, the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 are detachably connected by using connectors or the like, such as screws or bolts, which can also achieve a detachable connection between the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21, making it convenient to install the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21, and to disassemble the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21.

[0052] The following is an introduction using the snap-fitting method between the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 .

[0053] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of the first condenser 11 of the air-conditioning device 10, Figure 4 is a schematic structural diagram of the second condenser 21 of the vehicle refrigerator 20, Figure 5 for Figure 4 The second condenser 21 of the vehicle refrigerator 20 shown in FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a second viewing angle, Figure 6 for Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a second condenser 21 of a vehicle refrigerator 20 at a third viewing angle.

[0054] Among them, the second condenser 21 includes a condensing tube 211 and a heat sink 212 which are interconnected, and the heat sink 212 is interconnected with the condensing tube 211, wherein the heat sink 212 includes a main body 2121 and a hook portion 2122, wherein the main body 2121 and the hook portion 2122 may be an integral structure or a split structure, wherein the hook portion 2122 is arranged at at least one end of the main body 2121 along the length direction and can be snapped onto the first condenser 11.

[0055] It should be noted that the main body 2121 here can be a filamentary structure or a tubular structure, and is a linear structure. The hook part 2122 here can be an arc hook, or a U-shaped hook or a structure of other shapes, and can be connected to the first condenser 11 through the hook part 2122.

[0056] In addition, the hook portion 2122 can be disposed at one end of the main body portion 2121 along the length direction, or at both ends of the main body portion 2121 along the length direction. Figure 8 As shown, there are two hook portions 2122 , and the two hook portions 2122 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the main body 2121 along the length direction, and are respectively connected to the two ends of the main body 2121 , wherein the two hook portions 2122 can be respectively clamped at the two ends of the first condenser 11 .

[0057] In addition to the two structures mentioned above, the hook portion 2122 here can also be set to a structure of other shapes, such as a polygonal structure with an opening, etc., as long as the two hook portions 2122 can be respectively clamped on the two ends of the first condenser 11.

[0058] The structure of the condenser 211 will be described in detail below.

[0059] Optionally, the condenser 211 includes a plurality of straight sections 2111 and a plurality of curved sections 2112, wherein the plurality of straight sections 2111 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, and are connected in series through the plurality of curved sections 2112; wherein the heat sink 212 and the straight section 2111 are connected in a vertical connection structure. The intervals between two adjacent straight sections 2111 may be the same or different. Figure 4In the embodiment, the intervals between two adjacent straight sections 2111 are the same. Of course, the intervals between two adjacent straight sections 2111 may also be configured with different structures, which will not be described in detail here.

[0060] Alternatively, if Figure 4 As shown, there are multiple heat sinks 212, and the multiple heat sinks 212 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the straight section 2111. The length direction of the straight section 2111 is the YY direction, the length direction of the heat sink 212 is the XX direction, and the multiple heat sinks 212 are arranged at intervals along the YY direction.

[0061] It should be noted that the heat sink 212 here can be made of metal material with good heat transfer coefficient and good weldability, such as copper alloy or aluminum alloy, etc. Similarly, the heat sink 212 here can also be made of plastic with good heat transfer coefficient and weldability.

[0062] It should be noted that the spacing between two adjacent heat sinks 212 can be the same or different, so that the distribution density of the heat sinks 212 can be set as needed. Figure 4 In the embodiment, the interval between two adjacent heat dissipation wires 212 along the YY direction is the same, so as to facilitate processing.

[0063] Optionally, the heat sink 212 is connected to the straight section of the condenser tube 211 by welding, such as spot welding, to improve the connection strength between the heat sink 212 and the straight section of the condenser tube 211. When the first compressor 14 and / or the second compressor 25 are working, vibrations are generated, which drive the condenser tube 211 and the heat sink 212 in the condenser to vibrate. Long-term use may cause the condenser tube 211 and the heat sink 212 to be damaged. Therefore, the welding method used in the present invention can improve the service life of the condenser tube 211 and the heat sink 212.

[0064] The heat sink 212 here can be set on one side of the condenser 211, or on both sides of the condenser 211, which can not only ensure the contact area between the heat sink 212 and the condenser 211, but also ensure good ventilation and heat dissipation conditions, greatly improving the heat dissipation efficiency and heat dissipation effect of the second condenser 21.

[0065] It should be noted that when the heat radiating wires 212 are arranged on both sides of the condenser tube 211, there are multiple heat radiating wires 212 on both sides of the condenser tube 211, and the heat radiating wires 212 on both sides of the condenser tube 211 are staggered to reduce the impact on ventilation. In addition, the multiple heat radiating wires 212 on the same side of the condenser tube 211 are arranged at intervals, and the specific intervals between two adjacent heat radiating wires 212 can be the same or different.

[0066] Alternatively, if Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the hook parts 2122 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the body part 2121 along the length direction, that is, the hook parts 2122 at both ends of the body part 2121 along the length direction adopt the same structure and can be symmetrically arranged at both ends of the body part 2121 along the length direction, which is convenient for processing the heat sink 212 and convenient for connecting the heat sink 212 with the condenser 211. Optionally, in order to reduce mutual interference, the air conditioner 10 and the vehicle refrigerator 20 are powered by independent power supplies, so that the vehicle refrigerator 20 can work independently when cooling without starting the car 100.

[0067] A second aspect of the present invention provides a car 100 . The car 100 includes the vehicle refrigerator 20 in the above embodiment. The vehicle refrigerator 20 is arranged inside the car 100 .

[0068] The rear compartment 50 of the automobile 100 can be used to place idle items, and the front compartment 30 of the automobile 100 can be used to place the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 , wherein the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 are combined together to form a combined condenser 60 .

[0069] Optionally, a fan assembly 40 is also provided in the front reserve compartment 30, that is, the fan assembly 40 is also provided in the front reserve compartment 30. The number of the fan assembly 40 here is one, and the power of the fan assembly 40 can be selected as needed. The fan assembly 40 here can accelerate the heat exchange process between the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21.

[0070] The automobile 100 of the present invention, by arranging the first condenser 11, the second condenser 21 and the fan assembly 40 in the front storage compartment 30, can achieve simultaneous heat dissipation of the first condenser 11 and the second condenser 21 through one fan assembly 40, thereby reducing the cost of the automobile 100. Compared with the structure that usually requires two fans, the automobile 100 of the present invention only requires one fan assembly 40, thereby reducing the cost of the automobile 100 and reducing the volume occupied by the vehicle refrigerator 20.

[0071] For the structures of other parts of this application, please refer to the prior art and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0072] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto.
