In order to prevent the accumulation of condensed water in the condensation chamber and the condensation effect of the condensation chamber, and to achieve the reuse of condensed water, a condensed water recovery structure is often set in the dehumidification unit. As recorded in the text of a dehumidification device with the Chinese patent publication number CN112774411A, a refrigeration plate for condensing moisture in the air is provided, and a collection box for collecting condensed liquid is provided. Although the setting of the collection box can collect and process the condensed liquid, the chamber of the collection box and the condensation chamber where the refrigeration plate is located are always in a state where the gas can be interconnected, so that the cold air in the condensation chamber will flow into the collection box, causing the refrigeration space of the refrigeration plate to increase significantly, and then the energy consumption of the refrigeration plate increases when the refrigeration effect is achieved. Therefore, it is urgent to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] For ease of understanding, the specific structure and working mode of the present invention are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0023] The specific structure of the utility model refers to Figure 1-2 As shown, its main structure includes a dehumidifier box 10, a condenser 30 installed in the dehumidifier box 10, and a water collection tank 50 for collecting condensed water. The dehumidifier box 10 is connected to the water collection tank 50 via a through hole 13 at its bottom. A water storage tank 14 is recessed on the inner bottom of the dehumidifier box 10 to receive condensed liquid and collect the condensed liquid within the dehumidifier box 10. Specifically, the water storage tank 14 is arranged adjacent to the through hole 13, and a diversion gap 141 is provided between the adjacent sides of the water storage tank 14 to connect the two. This allows the condensed liquid in the water storage tank 14 to be diverted to the through hole 13, that is, the condensed liquid in the dehumidifier box 10 is diverted and collected in the water collection tank 50. Furthermore, in order to prevent the through hole 13 from causing leakage of cold air in the cold dehumidification box 10, an air blocking hood 42 with an open bottom is fixed directly above the through hole 13; the bottom of the air blocking hood 42 is located in the groove cavity of the water storage liquid seal groove 14, and the bottom surface height of the air blocking hood 42 is lower than the groove bottom height of the guide notch 141, so that the bottom surface of the air blocking hood 42 is always located below the liquid level of the water storage liquid seal groove 14, so that the guide gap between the bottom of the air blocking hood 42 and the water storage liquid seal groove 14 is always in a liquid-sealed state that prevents cold air from passing through but allows condensed water to pass through, effectively reducing the loss of cold air during the discharge of condensate into the water collecting tank 50.

[0024] On the basis of the above, if Figure 2As shown, the air blocking cover 42 is arranged directly below the condenser 30, and the outer wall of the air blocking cover 42 is provided with a guide groove 421 that can receive the condensate and guide it to the water storage liquid sealing groove 14. The provision of the guide groove 421 facilitates the stable guidance of the condensate to the water storage liquid sealing groove 14, thereby achieving rapid and comprehensive collection of the condensate.

[0025] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a water receiving funnel 41 for receiving condensate is provided below the condenser 30 , and the drainage end of the water receiving funnel 41 points to the notch of the guide groove 421 , further ensuring the efficiency and comprehensiveness of the condensate collection.

[0026] On the basis of the above, if Figure 1 As shown, a filter screen 51 is provided in the water collecting tank 50. The filter screen 51 divides the inner cavity of the water collecting tank 50 into a turbid liquid cavity and a filtrate cavity which are sequentially distributed up and down, thereby filtering impurities in the condensate.

[0027] Furthermore, the filter 51 is removably mounted within the water collection tank 50 and can be removed and replaced to ensure optimal condensate filtration. Furthermore, a drain pipe 52 connected to the filtrate chamber is mounted on the sidewall of the water collection tank 50, allowing for the recovery of filtered condensate from the water collection tank 50 at any time.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the dehumidifier box 10 is a rectangular parallelepiped, with an air inlet pipe 11 and an air outlet pipe 12 mounted at either end. The interior of the dehumidifier box 10 is divided by a partition 20 into at least two interconnected chambers, each of which is equipped with a condenser 30. During operation, external air enters the chambers of the dehumidifier box 10 through the air inlet pipe 11 and is condensed by the condensers 30 in each chamber before being discharged from the air outlet pipe 12, ensuring a condensation and dehumidification effect on the air.

[0029] Of course, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, but also encompasses the same or similar structures that can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations that fall within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claim to which they relate.

[0030] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
