Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a water tank and an air conditioner. Background Technique
[0002] An air conditioner includes a heat exchange system and a spraying system. The spraying system includes a water tank, a spraying pipe, a water pump, etc. The heat exchange system includes a heat exchanger, a condenser, etc. When the air conditioner cools down, the liquid medium evaporates and absorbs heat through the indoor heat exchanger, enters the compressor and becomes a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, then dissipates heat through the outdoor heat exchanger and becomes a gaseous refrigerant with a lower temperature, and then becomes a liquid refrigerant under the throttling effect of the throttling device and enters the indoor heat exchanger, repeating like this to transport the heat in the room to the outside. During the whole circulation process, the water vapor in the room will carry dust and impurities in the air into the water tank to form sludge or floating substances. In order to ensure the quality of the water flow sprayed onto the outdoor heat exchanger, a filter plate is usually arranged inside the water tank to filter the sludge with the filter plate, and the water pump pumps the clear liquid water into the spraying pipe, and the spraying pipe sprays and cools the outdoor heat exchanger.
[0003] However, the current water tank has an unsatisfactory filtering effect on the water flow, and the amount of sludge in the water tank is large. If the number of filter plates is increased, it is easy to increase the water flow resistance, overload the water pump or the water flow rate does not meet the requirements. If the number of filter plates is insufficient, the filtering ability will decline, and the sludge is easy to enter the water pump. In view of the current situation, users can only frequently open the sewage outlet of the water tank to drain the water tank, which is troublesome to operate. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a water tank and an air conditioner, which separate the inside of the water tank, use multiple sedimentation chambers to sediment sludge, and provide high-quality water flow for the spraying system.
[0005] To achieve this purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] In the first aspect, a water tank is provided. The water tank includes a box body. Inside the box body, a first partition board, a second partition board and a third partition board are arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction. The first partition board, the second partition board and the third partition board divide the inside of the box body into a first sedimentation chamber, a second sedimentation chamber, a third sedimentation chamber and a fourth sedimentation chamber. The first sedimentation chamber is communicated with the water inlet of the box body. The top of the first sedimentation chamber is communicated with the top of the second sedimentation chamber. The bottom of the second sedimentation chamber is communicated with the bottom of the third sedimentation chamber. The top of the third sedimentation chamber is communicated with the top of the fourth sedimentation chamber. The fourth sedimentation chamber is communicated with the spraying system.
[0007] As an optional technical solution, a filter plate is arranged between the second partition board and the third partition board. When the water flow flows from the third sedimentation chamber to the fourth sedimentation chamber, the filter plate filters the water flow.
[0008] As an alternative technical solution, the second partition is vertically arranged inside the box body, the top of the second partition is connected to the top cover of the box body, the bottom of the second partition is spaced from the bottom plate of the box body, and a second overflow port is formed between the bottom of the second partition and the bottom plate.
[0009] As an alternative technical solution, a second sewage outlet is provided at the bottom of the second overflow port, and a second sewage valve is provided at the second sewage outlet.
[0010] As an alternative technical solution, the third partition is vertically arranged inside the box body, the top of the third partition is spaced from the top cover, a third overflow port is formed between the top of the third partition and the top cover, and the bottom of the third partition is connected to the bottom plate.
[0011] As an alternative technical solution, the top cover is detachably connected to the side wall of the box body.
[0012] As an alternative technical solution, one end of the filter plate is welded to the second partition, the other end of the filter plate is placed on the top of the third partition, and the filter plate is perpendicular to the second partition.
[0013] As an alternative technical solution, the second partition and the top cover are integrally provided.
[0014] As an alternative technical solution, a first sewage outlet is provided at the bottom of the first deposition chamber, a first sewage valve is provided at the first sewage outlet, a third sewage outlet is provided at the bottom of the fourth deposition chamber, and a third sewage valve is provided at the third sewage outlet.
[0015] In a second aspect, an air conditioner is provided, including a spray system and the water tank as described above, and the spray system is communicated with the fourth deposition chamber.
[0016] Advantages of the present utility model:
[0017] The present utility model provides a water tank and an air conditioner. The water tank includes a box body, and a first partition, a second partition, and a third partition are horizontally spaced inside the box body. The first partition, the second partition, and the third partition divide the interior of the box body into a first deposition chamber, a second deposition chamber, a third deposition chamber, and a fourth deposition chamber. The first deposition chamber is communicated with the water inlet of the box body, the top of the first deposition chamber is communicated with the top of the second deposition chamber, the bottom of the second deposition chamber is communicated with the bottom of the third deposition chamber, the top of the third deposition chamber is communicated with the top of the fourth deposition chamber, and the fourth deposition chamber is communicated with the spray system.
[0018] When water flow carries dust and floating objects such as mosquitoes into the interior of the box body from the water inlet, the dust first deposits at the bottom of the first sedimentation chamber and forms sludge. Since the water flow is fluid, it can carry floating objects and a small amount of sludge into the second sedimentation chamber from the top of the first sedimentation chamber. The sludge deposits at the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber. Due to the blocking effect of the second partition board, the floating objects cannot deposit at the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber. Therefore, the floating objects cannot enter the third sedimentation chamber, avoiding clogging the water pump or the spray. The water flow can enter the third sedimentation chamber from the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber and enter the fourth sedimentation chamber from the top of the third sedimentation chamber. Due to the sedimentation effect of the first sedimentation chamber, the second sedimentation chamber and the third sedimentation chamber on the sludge, and the blocking effect of the second partition board on the floating objects, the amount of sludge finally entering the fourth sedimentation chamber is extremely small, and the floating objects cannot enter the fourth sedimentation chamber at all. The fourth sedimentation chamber can provide high-quality water flow for the spray system, extend the service life of the air conditioner, and users do not need to frequently drain the water tank.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.
[0032] As Figure 2 shown, this embodiment provides a water tank, which includes a box body 1. Inside the box body 1, a first partition 2, a second partition 3, and a third partition 4 are provided at intervals in the horizontal direction. The first partition 2, the second partition 3, and the third partition 4 divide the interior of the box body 1 into a first sedimentation chamber 11, a second sedimentation chamber 12, a third sedimentation chamber 13, and a fourth sedimentation chamber 14. The first sedimentation chamber 11 is communicated with the water inlet 15 of the box body 1. The top of the first sedimentation chamber 11 is communicated with the top of the second sedimentation chamber 12. The bottom of the second sedimentation chamber 12 is communicated with the bottom of the third sedimentation chamber 13. The top of the third sedimentation chamber 13 is communicated with the top of the fourth sedimentation chamber 14. The fourth sedimentation chamber 14 is communicated with the spraying system 100.
[0033] When water flow carries dust and floating objects such as mosquitoes into the interior of the box body 1 from the water inlet 15, the dust first deposits at the bottom of the first sedimentation chamber 11 to form sludge. Since the water flow has fluidity, it can carry floating objects and a small amount of sludge into the second sedimentation chamber 12 from the top of the first sedimentation chamber 11. The sludge deposits at the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber 12. Due to the blocking effect of the second partition plate 3, the floating objects cannot deposit at the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber 12. Therefore, the floating objects cannot enter the third sedimentation chamber 13, avoiding clogging the water pump or the spray. The water flow can enter the third sedimentation chamber 13 from the bottom of the second sedimentation chamber 12 and enter the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 from the top of the third sedimentation chamber 13. Due to the sedimentation effect of the first sedimentation chamber 11, the second sedimentation chamber 12 and the third sedimentation chamber 13 on the sludge, and the blocking effect of the second partition plate 3 on the floating objects, the amount of sludge finally entering the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 is extremely small, and the floating objects cannot enter the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 at all. The fourth sedimentation chamber 14 can provide high-quality water flow for the spray system 100, improving the service life of the air conditioner, and users do not need to frequently drain the water tank.
[0034] The water tank of this embodiment can effectively settle the sludge, without the need for frequent cleaning and filter replacement, making the spray system 100 more stable.
[0035] Optionally, a filter plate 5 is provided between the second partition plate 3 and the third partition plate 4. When the water flow flows from the third sedimentation chamber 13 to the fourth sedimentation chamber 14, the filter plate 5 filters the water flow, further improving the quality of the water flow entering the fourth sedimentation chamber 14.
[0036] In this embodiment, the number of filter plates 5 is small, and the resistance to the water flow is small, so the water pump in the spray system 100 will not have an overload phenomenon.
[0037] Optionally, the first partition plate 2 is vertically arranged inside the box body 1. The top of the first partition plate 2 is spaced from the top cover 16, and a first overflow port 113 is formed between the first partition plate 2 and the top cover 16. The bottom of the first partition plate 2 is connected to the bottom plate 17.
[0038] After the water flow fills the first sedimentation chamber 11, it overflows the top of the first partition plate 2 and overflows into the second sedimentation chamber 12 from the first overflow port 113.
[0039] Optionally, the second partition plate 3 is vertically arranged inside the box body 1. The top of the second partition plate 3 is connected to the top cover 16 of the box body 1. The bottom of the second partition plate 3 is spaced from the bottom plate 17 of the box body 1, and a second overflow port 18 is formed between the bottom of the second partition plate 3 and the bottom plate 17.
[0040] After the water flow enters the second sedimentation chamber 12, it can directly cross the bottom of the second partition plate 3 and enter the third sedimentation chamber 13 from the second overflow port 18.
[0041] Optionally, a second sewage outlet 19 is provided at the bottom of the second overflow outlet 18, and the second sewage outlet 19 is provided with a second sewage valve.
[0042] When it is necessary to discharge the sludge in the second sedimentation chamber 12 and the third sedimentation chamber 13, the second sewage valve is opened, and the sludge in the second sedimentation chamber 12 and the third sedimentation chamber 13 is discharged from the second sewage outlet 19. Due to the isolation effect of the first partition 2 and the third partition 4, the first sedimentation chamber 11 continues to collect water flow, and the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 does not affect the water flow provided by the spray system 100.
[0043] Optionally, the third partition 4 is vertically arranged inside the box body 1, the top of the third partition 4 is spaced apart from the top cover 16, a third overflow port 110 is formed between the top of the third partition 4 and the top cover 16, and the bottom of the third partition 4 is connected to the bottom plate 17.
[0044] When the water flows fill the second sedimentation chamber 12 and the third sedimentation chamber 13 , the water flows through the filter plate 5 and over the third partition plate 4 , and enters the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 from the third overflow port 110 .
[0045] Optionally, the top cover 16 is detachably connected to the side wall of the box body 1. When the interior of the box body 1 needs to be fully cleaned, the top cover 16 is removed to facilitate the cleaning operation.
[0046] Optionally, one end of the filter plate 5 is welded to the second partition plate 3 , and the other end of the filter plate 5 is mounted on the top of the third partition plate 4 , and the filter plate 5 is perpendicular to the second partition plate 3 .
[0047] The filter plate 5 and the top cover 16 can be removed together to facilitate cleaning of the third sedimentation chamber 13 ; the third partition plate 4 supports one end of the filter plate 5 to improve the stability of the filter plate 5 .
[0048] Optionally, the second partition plate 3 is integrally provided with the top cover 16 .
[0049] Optionally, a first drain port 111 is provided at the bottom of the first sedimentation chamber 11 , and a first drain valve is provided at the first drain port 111 . A third drain port 112 is provided at the bottom of the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 , and a third drain valve is provided at the third drain port 112 .
[0050] When the sludge and floating objects in the first sedimentation chamber 11 need to be discharged, the first sewage valve is opened; when the sludge in the fourth sedimentation chamber 14 needs to be discharged, the fourth sewage valve is opened.
[0051] The sewage valve is an existing component, and the specific structure and working principle are not described in detail in this embodiment.
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment further provides an air conditioner, which includes a spray system 100 and a water tank as described above, and the spray system 100 is connected to the fourth deposition chamber 14 .
