Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration units, in particular to a low-temperature cascade refrigeration unit. Background Art

[0002] Cascade refrigeration units offer significant advantages in low-temperature refrigeration, high energy efficiency, adaptability, stability, longevity, and environmental friendliness, making them suitable for applications requiring high cooling temperatures and efficiency. By increasing the number of refrigeration cycles, cascade refrigeration units multiply the number of system components, achieving lower evaporation temperatures, typically between -40°C and -80°C. Single-stage refrigeration units typically have evaporation temperatures between -15°C and -35°C. This technology makes cascade refrigeration units more widely applicable in industries requiring low-temperature refrigeration, such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.

[0003] Chinese patent authorization announcement number: CN218915443U provides an ultra-low temperature cascade refrigeration unit. The arrangement of the movable support seat and the base of this solution is conducive to when the ultra-low temperature cascade refrigeration unit inside the refrigeration chassis generates vibration during operation.

[0037] Working principle: When a low-temperature cascade refrigeration unit is needed for refrigeration, the medium-temperature refrigerant is allowed to evaporate and cool in the evaporator 45, so that the low-temperature refrigerant releases heat therein, and then is condensed into liquid after heat exchange with the evaporated medium-temperature refrigerant in the condenser tube 465 inside the condenser box 464, and the heat is transferred to the environment inside the unit. The formed low-temperature refrigerant liquid will enter the condenser 52 from the two flow pipes 10 and form a low-pressure gas. In this process, the motor 1 462 can be started to rotate the fan blade 1 463 under the action of the motor 1 462 to accelerate the condensation of the medium-temperature refrigerant in the condenser box 464. The low-pressure gas enters the compressor 53 through the two flow pipes 10 and is compressed into high-pressure gas. By connecting the copper tube 2 557 and The connecting copper tube 1 556 enters the condenser 52 to release heat, and finally turns into liquid and returns to the evaporator 45 from the two circulation tubes 10 to continue absorbing heat. The coolant transfers heat to the refrigerant through heat exchange with the refrigerant, thereby achieving cooling. In this process, the motor 2 551 can be started to allow the fan blade 2 553 to rotate under the action of the motor 2 551, and cooperate with the cooling box 554 to cool the high-pressure gas passing through the cooling tube 555. At the same time, the hot gas inside the unit can be discharged and sent to the environment outside the unit, which can enable the unit to maintain a suitable temperature operation and reduce energy consumption. At the same time, the expansion tank 6 can be used in conjunction with the connecting tube 1 9 to adjust the pressure inside the unit to avoid excessive pressure affecting the operation of the unit.
