[0038] Working principle: Air enters the air collection box 55 from the air inlet pipe 56, and then enters the interior of the air cooler main body 2 through the exhaust pipe 57 and the exhaust holes 59. The water extraction pipe 51 connects the water storage tank 3 and the condensation tank 52 to ensure that the overflow water can flow from the water storage tank 3 into the condensation tank 52 for treatment. The condensation tank 52 reduces the water temperature through the internal cooling system to provide a low-temperature water source for subsequent spraying. The cooled water is evenly sprayed into the interior of the air cooler main body 2 through the spray head 54 on the water delivery pipe 53 to improve the cooling effect and cool the incoming air. The air outlet pipe 21 discharges the cooled air from the air cooler main body 2. The overflow pipe 4 injects the water overflowing from the interior of the air cooler main body 2 into the water storage tank 3 for storage, thus completing the recycling of the overflow water and avoiding the problems of leakage or damage at the frequently disassembled and connected parts, which affect the stability and efficiency of the equipment.
[0039] And the water level in the water storage tank 3 is monitored in real time through the water level detection component 6. When the water level is lower than the set threshold, the sliding rod 61 moves downward with the change of the water level, causing the contact ring 63 to contact the metal ring 64, forming an electrical circuit path. At this time, the power supply 65 provides power for the contact ring 63, making the alarm lamp 66 light up, reminding the user to add water in time. After seeing the alarm lamp 66 light up, the user can add water to the water storage tank 3 through the water injection pipe 31 to ensure the normal operation of the evaporative air cooler.
