[0035] Embodiment

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which shows a schematic structural diagram of the variable-frequency air compression device 100 provided in this embodiment.

[0037] The variable-frequency air compression device 100 provided in this embodiment includes a base 110, a variable-frequency motor 120, a crankcase 130, and a decentralized air cooler 140. The variable-frequency motor 120, the crankcase 130, and the decentralized air cooler 140 are all arranged on the base 110. A plurality of compression cylinders are arranged on the crankcase 130. The variable-frequency motor 120 is drivingly connected to the plurality of compression cylinders. The decentralized air cooler 140 has a plurality of heat dissipation units. The plurality of compression cylinders and the plurality of heat dissipation units are alternately connected in sequence through pipelines.

[0038] The variable-frequency air compression device 100 further includes an inverter, which is electrically connected to the variable-frequency motor 120. The variable-frequency motor 120 is controlled by the inverter and its rotation speed is adjustable. The decentralized air cooler 140 further has a driving motor (not shown in the figure) and a fan system (not shown in the figure). The driving motor is connected to the fan system and is used to drive the fan system to operate so as to drive the air flow to exchange heat with the plurality of heat dissipation units.

[0039] In practical applications, the driving motor can be a fixed-frequency motor, which drives the fan system to operate, agitates the air flow to pass through the plurality of heat dissipation units, exchanges heat with the plurality of heat dissipation units, and realizes the heat dissipation and temperature reduction of the compressed air flowing through each heat dissipation unit. It can be seen that even if the rotation speed of the variable-frequency motor 120 changes in order to meet different output requirements and save energy consumption, the operating state of the driving motor of the decentralized air cooler 140 will not change, and the heat dissipation effect can be ensured to be stable.

[0040] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft of the variable-frequency motor 120 is connected to the crankshaft assembly of the crankcase 130 through a coupling 150, and a plurality of compression cylinders are drivingly connected to the crankshaft assembly. In practical applications, the rotation of the rotating shaft of the variable-frequency motor 120 drives the rotation of the crankshaft assembly of the crankcase 130, thereby driving the operation of a plurality of compression cylinders connected to the crankshaft assembly, compressing air in multiple stages and then outputting it to the outside. Every time the air passes through one stage of compression, it flows into a corresponding heat dissipation unit for heat dissipation, and then proceeds to the next stage of compression after the heat dissipation is completed.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 which shows a schematic structural diagram of the decentralized air cooler 140.

[0042] In this embodiment, a first interface 144, a second interface 145, a third interface 146, a fourth interface 147, a fifth interface 148, and a sixth interface 149 are provided on the housing of the decentralized air cooler 140. A plurality of heat dissipation units of the decentralized air cooler 140 are arranged inside the housing, specifically including a primary heat dissipation unit, a secondary heat dissipation unit, and a tertiary heat dissipation unit. The first interface 144 is the input interface of the primary heat dissipation unit, and the second interface 145 is the output interface of the first heat dissipation unit; the third interface 146 is the input interface of the secondary heat dissipation unit, and the fourth interface 147 is the output interface of the secondary heat dissipation unit; the fifth interface 148 is the input interface of the tertiary heat dissipation unit, and the sixth interface 149 is the output interface of the tertiary heat dissipation unit.

[0043] It can be understood that each heat dissipation unit can be a pipeline for the flow of compressed air, and the pipe wall of the pipeline has good heat conduction function. When the air is blown through each heat dissipation unit by the fan system, heat exchange occurs between the pipe wall passing through each heat dissipation unit and the compressed air, thereby taking away the heat of the compressed air flowing through each heat dissipation unit and realizing the heat dissipation of the compressed air.

[0044] In this embodiment, for safety reasons, a primary safety valve 141 is provided in the primary heat dissipation unit, which is used to open and relieve pressure when the pressure in the primary heat dissipation unit exceeds the first safety threshold, and discharge part of the compressed air in the primary heat dissipation unit; a secondary safety valve 142 is provided in the secondary heat dissipation unit, which is used to open and relieve pressure when the pressure in the secondary heat dissipation unit exceeds the second safety threshold, and discharge part of the compressed air in the secondary heat dissipation unit; a tertiary safety valve 143 is provided in the tertiary heat dissipation unit, which is used to open and relieve pressure when the pressure in the tertiary heat dissipation unit exceeds the third safety threshold, and discharge part of the compressed air in the tertiary heat dissipation unit.

[0045] Actually, the plurality of compression cylinders provided on the crankcase 130 include a primary compression cylinder 131, a secondary compression cylinder 132, and a tertiary compression cylinder 133. Figure 1The connecting pipeline between the first-stage compression cylinder 131 and the first-stage heat dissipation unit is shown. The output end of the first-stage compression cylinder 131 is connected to the first interface 144 through a pipeline. The input end of the first-stage compression cylinder 131 sucks in the air in the environment. After compression, the compressed air with a certain pressure is input into the first-stage heat dissipation unit through its output end for heat dissipation.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The structural schematic diagram of the connecting pipeline between the first-stage heat dissipation unit and the second-stage compression cylinder 132 is shown.

[0047] The second interface 145 is connected to the input end of the second-stage compression cylinder 132 through a pipeline, realizing the connection between the output end of the first-stage heat dissipation unit and the second-stage compression cylinder 132. In fact, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 further includes a second-stage air inlet separator 161, and the second-stage air inlet separator 161 is arranged on the pipeline between the output end of the first-stage heat dissipation unit and the input end of the second-stage compression cylinder 132.

[0048] In actual application, the compressed air that has been heat-dissipated and discharged from the first-stage heat dissipation unit first passes through the second-stage air inlet separator 161. The second-stage air inlet separator 161 removes impurities such as particles and moisture in the compressed air, ensuring the purity of the compressed gas entering the second-stage compression cylinder 132 and improving the compression efficiency.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The structural schematic diagram of the connecting pipeline between the second-stage compression cylinder 132 and the second-stage heat dissipation unit is shown.

[0050] The output end of the second-stage compression cylinder 132 is connected to the third interface 146 through a pipeline, realizing the connection with the input end of the second-stage heat dissipation unit. In fact, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 further includes a second-stage exhaust buffer tank 171, and the second-stage exhaust buffer tank 171 is arranged on the pipeline between the output end of the second-stage compression cylinder 132 and the input end of the second-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0051] In actual application, the compressed air that has been second-stage compressed and discharged from the second-stage compression cylinder 132 first passes through the second-stage exhaust buffer tank 171. The second-stage exhaust buffer tank 171 stabilizes the pressure of the compressed air, enabling the compressed air to flow into the third interface 146 in a stable state, that is, entering the second-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0052] In fact, Figure 4 The structure of the connecting pipeline between the second-stage heat dissipation unit and the third-stage compression cylinder 133 is also shown.

[0053] The fourth interface 147 is connected to the input end of the three-stage compression cylinder 133 through a pipeline, realizing the connection between the output end of the secondary heat dissipation unit and the input end of the three-stage compression cylinder 133. In fact, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 further includes a three-stage air inlet separator 162, and the three-stage air inlet separator 162 is arranged on the pipeline between the output end of the secondary heat dissipation unit and the input end of the three-stage compression cylinder 133.

[0054] In practical applications, the compressed air that has been cooled by the secondary heat dissipation unit first passes through the three-stage air inlet separator 162. The three-stage air inlet separator 162 removes impurities such as particles and moisture in the compressed air, ensuring that the compressed gas entering the three-stage compression cylinder 133 is pure and improving the compression efficiency.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 which shows a schematic structural diagram of the pipeline connecting the three-stage compression cylinder 133 and the three-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0056] The output end of the three-stage compression cylinder 133 is connected to the fifth interface 148 through a pipeline, realizing the connection with the input end of the three-stage heat dissipation unit. Similarly, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 further includes a three-stage exhaust buffer tank 172, and the three-stage exhaust buffer tank 172 is arranged on the pipeline between the output end of the three-stage compression cylinder 133 and the input end of the three-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0057] The compressed air that has been compressed three times by the three-stage compression cylinder 133 first passes through the three-stage exhaust buffer tank 172. The three-stage exhaust buffer tank 172 stabilizes the pressure of the compressed air, enabling the compressed air to flow into the fifth interface 148 in a stable state, that is, entering the three-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0058] In fact, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 provided in this embodiment further includes a final-stage air inlet separator 163, and the final-stage air inlet separator 163 is arranged at the output end of the three-stage heat dissipation unit.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 which shows a schematic structural diagram of the pipeline connecting the three-stage heat dissipation unit and the final-stage air inlet separator 163. The sixth interface 149 is connected to the final-stage separator through a pipeline, and the final-stage separator removes impurities in the flowing compressed air so that the compressed air is output to the outside in a pure state.

[0060] In summary, the variable-frequency air compression device 100 provided in this embodiment can perform variable-frequency output while obtaining a stable heat dissipation effect, meet different output requirements, and avoid energy consumption waste.
