Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of refined management and control of urban village communities, and particularly to a device for centralized guiding and discharging of air-conditioning water. Background Art
[0002] With the wide application of air-conditioning equipment, especially in some old urban village communities and the like, the problem of condensate water discharge from outdoor air-conditioning units has become increasingly prominent.
[0003] When these old communities were planned, the condensate water discharge requirements after the popularization of air-conditioning were not foreseen, resulting in chaotic placement of outdoor air-conditioning units on the building exterior walls, and the condensate water being discharged randomly through air-conditioning water pipes. This not only brings inconvenience to pedestrians and other objects below, but also the long-term water flow along the wall is prone to cause wall mildew, affecting the living environment and the durability of the building. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to improve the drainage problem of outdoor air-conditioning units, this application provides a device for centralized guiding and discharging of air-conditioning water.
[0005] This application provides a device for centralized guiding and discharging of air-conditioning water, adopting the following technical solutions:
[0006] A device for centralized guiding and discharging of air-conditioning water includes a collecting pipe and a connecting fitting that connects the collecting pipe and the air-conditioning water pipe. The collecting pipe is vertically installed and fixed on a carrier; the connecting fitting includes a butt joint pipe connected to the collecting pipe and a water connection pipe connected to the air-conditioning water pipe; the orifice of the water connection pipe faces upward, and under the action of its own weight, the air-conditioning water flows into the collecting pipe through the water connection pipe and the connecting pipe.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, when the air-conditioning operates to generate condensate water, the water flow flows from the air-conditioning water pipe into the water connection pipe under the action of its own weight, and then enters the collecting pipe through the butt joint pipe. The collecting pipe centrally collects the condensate water and guides it to a suitable discharge position, thus avoiding the random dripping of the condensate water.
[0008] Optionally, the connecting fitting further includes an opening pipe sleeve for sleeving the butt joint pipe therein; the opening end of the opening pipe sleeve is provided with an opening cutter head.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solutions, an opening pipe sleeve is added to the connecting fitting and equipped with an opening cutter head, which is convenient for quickly opening a hole in the collecting pipe and installing the butt joint pipe, improving the installation efficiency and flexibility.
[0010] Optionally, a retaining ring is fixed on the circumferential side of the opening pipe sleeve; when the retaining ring contacts the outer wall of the collecting pipe, a water outlet and water passing gap is left between the opening end of the opening pipe sleeve and the inner wall of the collecting pipe.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a retaining ring is fixed on the circumferential side of the perforated pipe sleeve and kept at a certain gap from the inner wall of the collecting pipe, which not only ensures smooth water discharge but also prevents direct contact between the connecting pipe and the collecting pipe, increasing the durability and stability of the device.
[0012] Optionally, a clamping assembly for fixedly connecting with the collecting pipe is provided on the perforated pipe sleeve.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the addition of the clamping assembly makes the connection between the perforated pipe sleeve and the collecting pipe more firm and reliable, preventing loosening or falling off caused by long-term use or external forces.
[0014] Optionally, the clamping assembly includes a plurality of fixing clips circumferentially distributed around the perforated pipe sleeve. Each fixing clip includes two perpendicularly connected clip pieces and a rotating shaft fixed at the connection of the two clip pieces. An opening is provided on the side wall of the perforated pipe sleeve, and the fixing clip is rotatably connected to the opening through the rotating shaft. When the connecting pipe is inserted into the perforated pipe sleeve and pushes one of the clip pieces to rotate into the opening, the other clip piece abuts against the inner wall of the collecting pipe, clamping the collecting pipe between the clip piece and the retaining ring.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the function of automatically clamping when the connecting pipe is inserted is realized, simplifying the installation steps and improving the installation efficiency.
[0016] Optionally, a sealing ring is sleeved on the perforated pipe sleeve. The sealing ring includes a first sealing section that seals the perforated pipe sleeve and a second sealing section that abuts against the side wall of the retaining ring.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, sleeving the sealing ring on the perforated pipe sleeve further enhances the sealing performance at the connection between the connecting pipe and the collecting pipe, preventing water leakage and protecting the building structure from damage.
[0018] Optionally, a sealing sleeve is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting pipe.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, sleeving the sealing sleeve on the outer periphery of the connecting pipe improves the sealing effect between the connecting pipe and the perforated pipe sleeve, preventing leakage problems at the connection.
[0020] Optionally, sealing rings are provided on the outer periphery of the sealing sleeve along the length direction.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, these sealing rings closely fit on the inner wall of the perforated pipe sleeve, forming multiple sealing barriers and effectively preventing water flow leakage.
[0022] Optionally, a bent pipe joint for fixedly connecting with the connecting pipe is fixed at one end of the water receiving pipe away from the water inlet.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the water connection pipe can be connected to the docking pipe at a certain angle, which is convenient for meeting the requirements in different installation environments and increases the flexibility and application range of the device.
[0024] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. Since the present invention adopts the combined design of the water collecting pipe and the connecting pipe fittings, the air-conditioning condensate water can flow into the water collecting pipe orderly through the water connection pipe and the connecting pipe fittings under the action of its own weight, realizing the centralized discharge of the condensate water and effectively solving the problem of chaotic discharge of air-conditioning condensate water in old communities.
[0026] 2. In the present invention, designs such as the clamping assembly and the sealing ring are preferably adopted, which enhance the sealing performance and stability of the device, ensure that the condensate water can be completely collected and discharged, and avoid leakage and dripping.

[0040] The following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] An embodiment of the present application discloses a centralized guiding and discharging device for air-conditioning water, which is mainly applied to the treatment of air-conditioning condensate water in old communities.
[0042] Referring to Figure 1 、 2 , the device includes a collecting pipe 1 and a connecting fitting 2. The collecting pipe 1 is vertically installed and fixed on the outer wall of the building. When installing, the selected location generally considers that the air-conditioning outdoor units can be evenly distributed on both sides of the collecting pipe 1. The connecting fitting 2 is composed of a butt joint pipe 21 and a water receiving pipe 22. The butt joint pipe 21 is connected to the collecting pipe 1, and the water receiving pipe 22 is used to connect to the outdoor unit water pipe of the air-conditioning. The pipe orifice of the water receiving pipe 22 is larger than the air-conditioning water pipe. In this embodiment, the collecting pipe 1, the butt joint pipe 21 and the water receiving pipe 22 are all square pipes. In other embodiments, pipes with suitable shapes can also be selected according to actual needs.
[0043] When installing, the butt joint pipe 21 is horizontally connected to the collecting pipe 1. One end of the water receiving pipe 22 is fixedly installed with an elbow joint 23. The water receiving pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the butt joint pipe 21 through the elbow joint 23. The pipe orifice of the water receiving pipe 22 is arranged upward. A bell mouth is provided at the pipe orifice of the water receiving pipe 22. The air-conditioning water pipe of the air-conditioning outdoor unit can be directly inserted into the water receiving pipe 22, and then, by the self-weight of the air-conditioning water, the air-conditioning water can smoothly flow into the collecting pipe 1 through the water receiving pipe 22 and the butt joint pipe 21.
[0044] Referring to Figure 2 、 3 , the connecting fitting 2 further includes an opening pipe sleeve 24. The opening pipe sleeve 24 is used to sleeved the butt joint pipe 21 inside, and its opening end is equipped with an opening cutter head 241, which is convenient for opening holes during installation. When installing, the opening cutter head 241 of the opening pipe sleeve 24 can be used to open a hole in the collecting pipe 1 first, and then the butt joint pipe 21 is inserted into the opening pipe sleeve 24. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to directly open a hole by borrowing equipment such as an opening tool first, and then install the opening pipe sleeve 24 and the butt joint pipe 21.
[0045] Referring to Figure 3 、 4 , a retaining ring 242 is fixed on the outer periphery of the opening pipe sleeve 24. The function of the retaining ring 242 is, on the one hand, when installing, when the retaining ring 242 contacts the outer wall of the collecting pipe 1, it can be used as a positioning mark to ensure the correct positioning of the butt joint pipe 21; on the other hand, after the retaining ring 242 contacts the outer wall of the collecting pipe 1, a certain gap will be maintained between the opening end of the opening pipe sleeve 24 and the inner wall of the collecting pipe 1. This gap can not only ensure the smooth flow of water, but also prevent damage or leakage caused by too tight docking.
[0046] Referring to Figure 3 、 4, the opening pipe sleeve 24 is also equipped with a clamping assembly, which is mainly used to fixedly connect the opening pipe sleeve 24 to the water collecting pipe 1, further enhancing the stability and sealing performance of the connection.
[0047] Specifically, the clamping assembly includes a number of fixed clips 243 circumferentially distributed around the opening pipe sleeve 24. The fixed clip 243 includes two clip pieces, and the ends of the two clip pieces are vertically fixedly connected together. Of course, the connection angle between the two clip pieces can also be adjusted according to the actual situation. A rotating shaft is also fixedly connected at the connection of the two clip pieces. An opening 244 communicating the inner and outer walls is provided on the side wall of the opening pipe sleeve 24, and the fixed clip 243 is rotatably connected to the opening 244 through the rotating shaft. One clip piece of the fixed clip 243 can be retracted into the opening pipe sleeve 24 through the rotating shaft and is located on the insertion path of the docking pipe 21.
[0048] During the installation process, first retract the clip pieces of the fixed clip 243 into the opening 244. Wait until the opening pipe sleeve 24 is opened and the retaining ring 242 is in close contact with the outer wall of the water collecting pipe 1. Then insert the docking pipe 21 into the opening pipe sleeve 24 and push one of the clip pieces, and the other clip piece will rotate to be in close contact with the inner wall of the water collecting pipe 1, thus realizing the fixed connection between the opening pipe sleeve 24 and the water collecting pipe 1.
[0049] Refer to Figure 3 、 4 , in order to improve the sealing performance of the opening pipe sleeve 24, a sealing ring 25 is added outside the opening pipe sleeve 24 in this embodiment. The sealing ring 25 includes a first sealing section and a second sealing section. The first sealing section is used to tightly wrap the outer circumference of the opening pipe sleeve 24 to prevent water leakage from here; the second sealing section is in close fit with the side wall of the retaining ring 242, further strengthening the sealing effect at the connection.
[0050] Refer to Figure 3 、 4 , in order to improve the sealing performance at the connection between the docking pipe 21 and the opening pipe sleeve 24, a sealing sleeve 26 is added outside the docking pipe 21 in this embodiment. This sealing sleeve 26 can not only enhance the sealing performance of the connection, but also reduce the corrosion and wear of the docking pipe 21 by the external environment to a certain extent and extend its service life.
[0051] To further optimize the sealing performance, a number of sealing rings 261 are distributed along the length direction of the outer circumference of the sealing sleeve 26. These sealing rings 261 are in close fit with the inner wall of the opening pipe sleeve 24 to form multiple sealing barriers, effectively preventing water leakage. At the same time, the elastic material of the sealing ring 261 can also absorb and buffer the stress generated by temperature changes or mechanical vibrations to a certain extent, protecting the connection from damage.
[0052] Refer to Figure 4, a limiting ring 262 is further provided on the outer ring at one end of the sealing sleeve 26. When the limiting ring 262 abuts against the perforated pipe sleeve 24, it means that the docking pipe 21 is installed. At this time, there is also a certain distance between the docking pipe 21 and the inner wall of the water collecting pipe 1, which is convenient for water flow or water intake.
[0053] In this embodiment, the sealing ring 25, the sealing sleeve 26, and the sealing ring 261 can all be made of elastic sealing materials such as rubber.
[0054] The implementation principle of an air-conditioning water centralized guiding and discharging device according to an embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0055] During installation, first, use the cutting head 241 of the perforated pipe sleeve 24 to cut a hole in the water collecting pipe 1. After cutting the hole, insert the perforated pipe sleeve 24 into the water collecting pipe 1 and ensure that the retaining ring 242 of the perforated pipe sleeve 24 contacts the outer wall of the water collecting pipe 1. Then insert the docking pipe 21 so that the limiting ring 262 on the docking pipe 21 abuts against the perforated pipe sleeve 24, and make the fixing clip 243 tightly press against the inner wall of the water collecting pipe 1. Finally, connect the air-conditioning water pipe to the connecting water pipe 22 for centralized drainage. To improve the connection stability, the connection between the docking pipe 21 and the perforated pipe sleeve 24 can use glue. At the same time, the docking pipe 21 and the connecting water pipe 22 can also be fixed to the wall through brackets such as hoop to improve the overall stability.
[0056] The above are all the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited by this. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
