Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile air-conditioning refrigeration, in particular to an automobile air-conditioning refrigerant recovery and filling system. Background Art
[0002] After a period of use, impurities, water vapor and incompressible gases will be mixed into the internal circulation system of the car air conditioner and mixed with the car air conditioner refrigerant, causing the car air conditioner refrigeration efficiency to decrease and causing damage to the internal parts of the car air conditioner. Therefore, it is necessary to use a car air conditioner refrigerant recovery and filling machine to recover, purify, store and refill the refrigerant in the car air conditioning system, thereby saving refrigerant raw materials and avoiding direct discharge of refrigerant into the atmosphere to cause environmental pollution.
[0003] During recycling, the automobile air-conditioning refrigerant recovery and filling machine is connected to the automobile air-conditioning system to recycle the refrigerant of the automobile air-conditioning into the machine. The refrigerant and refrigeration oil are separated by a heat exchange oil separator in the machine, and the separated waste oil is discharged through an oil discharge device. The water vapor and impurities mixed in the refrigerant are filtered through a dry filter. The purified refrigerant is cooled and depressurized by a condenser and recycled to the refrigerant storage tank in the machine. The machine is also equipped with a refrigeration oil filling bottle. After the recycling work is completed, the automobile air-conditioning system is vacuumed and purified by the vacuum system in the machine. When the automobile air-conditioning system reaches a vacuum state, the pressure difference and control system are used to quantitatively add refrigerant and refrigeration oil to the automobile air-conditioning system. However, this recycling method has the following defects:
[0004] When the suction pressure of the compressor approaches atmospheric pressure, the exhaust pressure of the compressor will be lower than the pressure in the condenser and the refrigerant storage tank. The large amount of liquid refrigerant remaining in the exhaust pipe of the compressor, the condenser, and the intake pipe of the refrigerant storage tank cannot be recovered into the refrigerant storage tank. At this time, the refrigerant storage tank cannot accurately display the actual amount of refrigerant recovered, and when the automobile air conditioner is vacuumed, the large amount of liquid refrigerant remaining in the filling machine system will also be discharged. The above defects seriously limit the refrigerant recovery efficiency of the automobile air conditioner refrigerant recovery and filling machine, and cannot accurately measure the actual amount of refrigerant recovered, which increases the loss of automobile air conditioner refrigerant and causes environmental pollution.
