Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of granary air-conditioning units, in particular to a novel granary air-conditioning unit for cooling grain surfaces. Background Art
[0002] Grain depots are characterized by large floor space, specialized support equipment, and high operating costs. Because grain contains a high amount of moisture, microorganisms thrive under suitable temperatures, causing the grain to heat up easily. If heat is not dissipated properly, the grain can easily become stagnant, yellow, and eventually moldy and spoil.
[0003] To this end, granaries use granary air conditioning units to cool the grain and achieve safe storage of grain. Grain silo air conditioning units are divided into granary air conditioning units for cooling the grain surface and granary air conditioning units for cooling the grain pile. In existing granary air conditioning units for cooling the grain surface, the structure is generally that a ventilation chamber, an air handling chamber, and an air supply chamber are formed side by side inside the body, and an air inlet connected to the air handling chamber and an air outlet connected to the air supply chamber are provided on the top or back of the body. A partition is provided between the ventilation chamber and the air handling chamber, and the air handling chamber is connected to the air supply chamber. A condenser is installed in the air handling chamber, an evaporator is installed in the air handling chamber, and an air supply fan is installed in the air supply chamber. The air in the granary is input from the air inlet to the air handling chamber. After being cooled by the evaporator, the air is sent back to the granary from the air outlet driven by the air supply fan and supplied to the grain surface. However, the grain silo air conditioning unit for cooling the grain surface, in which the ventilation chamber, the air handling chamber and the air supply chamber are arranged side by side inside the machine body, requires more lateral installation space.

In addition, its structure requires less lateral installation space.
