[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0030] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, an energy tower that is easy to install and fix includes a tower body 11 and a heat pump unit 29. A heat exchange area 16 is provided inside the tower body 11, and a bottom plate 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the tower body 11;
[0031] The water inlet and outlet of the heat pump unit 29 are connected to the water exchange pipe 30 and the hot water pipe 31 respectively. The ends of the water exchange pipe 30 and the hot water pipe 31 away from the heat pump unit 29 are connected to the coil inside the heat exchange area 16.
[0032] A water collecting tank 17 is slidably mounted at the bottom of the tower body 11. The liquid outlet at the bottom of the water collecting tank 17 is connected to a circulation pipe 32. A water pump is mounted on the side wall of the tower body 11. The input end of the water pump is connected to the circulation pipe 32, and the output end of the water pump is connected to the liquid inlet end of a spray pipe 33. The spray pipe 33 is mounted inside the tower body 11 and located above the heat exchange area 16. The circulation pipe 32 is connected to the liquid inlet pipe 34.
[0033] It also includes a shock-absorbing structure, which is arranged at the bottom end of the base plate 18 to increase the stability of the tower body 11 during operation.
[0034] In this embodiment, a water pump continuously pumps water from water collection tank 17 to spray pipe 33, where it is sprayed onto heat exchange area 16 for heat exchange with the air. The heat-exchanged water flows into water collection tank 17 and then returns to spray pipe 33 through circulation pipe 32, forming a closed water circulation system.
[0035] The heat pump unit 29 is connected to the coil inside the tower body 11 through the water exchange pipe 30 and the hot water pipe 31 to achieve heating or cooling of water, thereby meeting the heating or cooling needs.
[0036] The shock-absorbing structure at the bottom end of the base plate 18 can effectively reduce the vibration generated by the tower body 11 during operation, ensuring the stable operation of the energy tower and reducing noise pollution.
[0037] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the shock-absorbing structure includes a buffer plate 22, which is installed at the bottom end of the base plate 18. Several damping springs 23 are fixedly installed at the bottom end of the buffer plate 22. A damper 24 is provided inside each damping spring 23. The bottom ends of the damping springs 23 and the damper 24 are fixedly connected to the top end of the base 26. Guard plates 25 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the top end of the base 26.
[0038] The buffer plate 22, damping spring 23, and damper 24 work together to absorb and disperse the vibration energy generated by the tower body 11 during operation, improving the stability and safety of the tower body 11. The base 26 and guard plate 25 provide additional support and protection to prevent the energy tower from shifting or being damaged during vibration.
[0039] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a support leg 27 is fixedly installed at the corner of the bottom end of the base 26, and the bottom end of the support leg 27 is fixedly connected to a fixed foot 28, and the bottom end of the fixed foot 28 is provided with an anti-slip layer.
[0040] The legs 27 and the fixed feet 28 ensure that the energy tower is firmly mounted on the foundation, and the anti-skid layer increases the friction between the energy tower and the ground to prevent sliding.
[0041] In one embodiment, Figure 5As shown, rubber pads are installed at opposite ends of the four guard plates 25.
[0042] The direct contact between the guard plate 25 and the tower body 11 may cause wear or noise due to vibration. The addition of the rubber pad can act as a buffer layer to reduce direct friction and collision between the guard plate 25 and the tower body 11, thereby protecting both from wear and tear and reducing noise caused by vibration.
[0043] In one embodiment, Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, a fixing ear 19 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the bottom plate 18, and the front end of the fixing ear 19 is rotatably connected to a locking rod 20. A locking block 21 for hanging the locking rod 20 is fixedly installed on the front end of the water collecting box 17.
[0044] The connection between the locking rod 20 and the locking block 21 ensures that the water collection tank 17 is securely fixed to the base plate 18, preventing it from shifting or falling off due to vibration or other factors during operation. This secure fixing method helps ensure the normal operation of the energy tower and prolong its service life. When the water collection tank 17 needs to be cleaned, inspected, or replaced, simply rotate the locking rod 20 in the opposite direction to separate it from the locking block 21, and the water collection tank 17 can be easily removed from the base plate 18. This design simplifies and facilitates maintenance work, improving the maintainability of the energy tower.
[0045] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, an air outlet cover 13 is installed on the top of the tower body 11, and an air inlet grille 12 is provided on the side wall of the tower body 11.
[0046] The air inlet grille 12 and the air outlet cover 13 work together to ensure that the air flow inside the tower body is smooth and the heat exchange is carried out in an orderly manner, thereby achieving efficient operation of the energy tower.
[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the top of the tower body 11 is fixedly connected to the shielding roof 15 through a plurality of mounting columns 14 .
[0048] The shielding roof 15 is fixed to the top of the tower body 11 through the mounting column 14, providing sunshade and rainproof functions, and protecting the internal parts of the tower body 11 from the influence of bad weather.
[0049] In one embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a water collecting tank is provided inside the water collecting box 17, and a detachable filter is installed on the top of the water collecting tank.
[0050] The water collection tank and detachable filter design inside the water collection box 17 help to collect and filter impurities in the water, keep the water clean, improve the heat exchange effect, and reduce the risk of clogging of the water pump and pipes.
[0051] The above embodiment discloses an energy tower that is easy to install and secure. In this example, a water collection tank 17 collects the heat-exchanged water. A water pump draws water from the bottom of the water collection tank 17 through a circulation pipe 32 and pumps it to a spray pipe 33. The spray pipe 33 sprays the water above the heat exchange area 16, exchanging heat with the air entering the tower. The heat-exchanged water then falls back into the water collection tank 17, forming a closed-loop water circulation system.
[0052] When the water collecting box 17 needs to be installed, it is only necessary to slide the water collecting box to the predetermined position on the bottom plate 18, and then rotate the locking rod 20 to hook it on the locking block 21 at the front end of the water collecting box. This design makes the installation process of the water collecting box simple and quick, without the need for complicated tools or additional fixings.
[0053] When the tower body 11 generates vibration during operation, the buffer plate 22 first absorbs and disperses part of the vibration energy, reducing the direct impact of the vibration on the lower structure. At the same time, the damping spring 23 will undergo elastic deformation to further absorb and disperse the vibration energy. When the damping spring 23 expands and contracts during the vibration process, the damper 24 will consume part of the energy, causing the vibration of the damping spring 23 to gradually decay, thereby more effectively reducing the transmission of vibration and ensuring the normal operation of the energy tower.
[0054] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present application should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
