[0020] References herein to "embodiments" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0021] The present invention provides a water-cooled air-conditioning controller with overload protection. Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a lateral seat 1, in which a control circuit board 2 is arranged; a mounting shell 3 is provided on the outside of the lateral seat 1, in which an input control assembly is provided, and the input control assembly is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2; a group of connecting rods 5 are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the opposite sides of the lateral seat 1; a receiving plate 6 is provided on the side away from the lateral seat 1; a connecting spring 7 is provided on the outside of the receiving plate 6, and a damper is integrated in the connecting spring 7; a clamping block 8 is provided on the side away from the receiving plate 6 of the connecting spring 7; a group of clamping grooves 9 are opened through the outer walls of both sides of the mounting shell 3, and the mounting shell 3 and the lateral seat 1 are plugged into and matched with the clamping block 8 through the clamping grooves 9; the inner diameter of the clamping groove 9 is adapted to the outer diameter of the clamping block 8.
[0022] It should be noted that the stability and safety of existing water-cooled air-conditioning controllers are challenged under long-term, high-load operation. Not only are disassembly and maintenance complex, time-consuming and fragile, but the heat dissipation efficiency is insufficient, which can easily lead to overheating of internal components, thereby affecting equipment performance and even causing damage. This solution can quickly and easily complete the disassembly and installation of the mounting shell 3, greatly improving the maintainability and maintenance efficiency of the equipment, reducing the risk of damage during maintenance, and thus extending the service life of the equipment; secondly, the efficient heat dissipation system ensures that the circuit board and other key components operate at the optimal operating temperature, effectively preventing performance degradation and damage caused by overheating, and laying a solid foundation for the long-term stable operation of the equipment; finally, the integrated input control assembly and the intuitive display screen 13 make operation more convenient and intuitive, enhancing user participation and satisfaction; and the design of the protective mask 19 and internal sensors effectively blocks external impurities and monitors the system status in real time, further improving the safety of the equipment and the user experience.
[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, the present solution mainly includes a side seat 1, which houses a control circuit board 2. The control circuit board 2 is responsible for executing various control commands. A mounting housing 3 is provided on the outside of the side seat 1, which houses an input control assembly. This assembly establishes a reliable electrical connection with the control circuit board 2, ensuring that it can accurately receive external operation commands and quickly transmit these commands to the control circuit board 2 for processing.
[0024] In normal operating mode, the user sends operating instructions, such as setting the temperature and adjusting the fan speed, through the input control assembly. These instructions are immediately transmitted to the control circuit board 2, which interprets and responds accordingly based on the preset program logic. Subsequently, the control circuit board 2 drives the various components of the air conditioning system, such as the compressor and fan, to work together to achieve precise temperature adjustment, humidity control, and air purification functions, creating a comfortable environment for the user.
[0025] This design also provides great convenience when the system requires maintenance or replacement of internal components of the mounting housing 3. The user first slightly presses the clamping block 8 to compress the connecting spring 7, which effectively releases the locking force between the mounting housing 3 and the lateral seat 1. Then, the user simply pulls the mounting housing 3 outward, and the clamping block 8 smoothly disengages from the clamping slot 9, achieving rapid separation of the mounting housing 3 and the lateral seat 1. This process not only simplifies the assembly and disassembly steps, but also significantly improves the safety of operation.
[0026] After completing maintenance or replacing parts, the user only needs to align the mounting shell 3 with the lateral seat 1 and apply appropriate thrust, and the clamping block 8 will slide into the clamping groove 9 again and be firmly locked by the elastic force of the connecting spring 7; this process is rapid and stable, ensuring the recovery of the overall structure of the controller and the normal operation of its functions; through such a design, not only the maintainability of the equipment is improved, but also the service life of the equipment is extended.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, heat dissipation fans 10 are provided on the inner walls on both sides of the mounting shell 3 , and a heat dissipation channel for air circulation is formed between the two heat dissipation fans 10 .
[0028] In this embodiment, when the control circuit board 2 and other internal components start to work, a certain amount of heat is generated as current flows and the components operate. In order to keep these components within a suitable operating temperature range and prevent performance degradation or damage caused by overheating, the heat dissipation system is activated.
[0029] At this time, the two cooling fans 10 start to rotate, and they work in opposite directions to form a strong air flow between them; this air flow passes quickly along the heat dissipation channel, sucking in cold air from the cooling fan 10 on one side, absorbing heat when passing through heating components such as the control circuit board 2, and then carrying this heat out from the cooling fan 10 on the other side; through such a circulation process, the cooling fan 10 not only accelerates the transfer of heat, but also significantly improves the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0030] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-4 As shown, a plurality of heat dissipation holes 11 communicating with the inner cavity of the mounting shell 3 are formed through the outer walls of both sides of the mounting shell 3 , and a plurality of heat dissipation fins 12 are provided on the inner wall of the mounting shell 3 adjacent to the heat dissipation holes 11 .
[0031] In this embodiment, the heat sink 12 has a large surface area and excellent thermal conductivity, can quickly absorb the heat in the inner cavity, and disperse the heat to a larger range through its own surface area. As the temperature of the heat sink 12 increases, the heat on its surface will be transferred to the surrounding air through air convection and radiation. At this time, the heat dissipation hole 11 not only provides a discharge channel for the hot air, but also accelerates the dissipation of heat by increasing the air circulation. When the hot air is discharged from the heat dissipation hole 11, it will take away a large amount of heat, thereby reducing the temperature of the inner cavity of the mounting shell 3.
[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-4As shown, the input control assembly includes: a display screen 13 arranged on the outside of the mounting shell 3; a plurality of input buttons 14 arranged on the outside of the display screen 13; and an overload protector 15, a temperature sensor 16 and a flow sensor 17 arranged on the inner wall of the mounting shell 3.
[0033] In this embodiment, the input control assembly integrates multiple functions such as user interaction, command input, and system monitoring, ensuring stable, efficient, and safe operation of the air conditioning system. The display screen 13 serves as an interactive interface, presenting the current status of the air conditioning system in real time, including key information such as set temperature, actual temperature, water flow, and operating mode, allowing users to intuitively understand the system's operating status.
[0034] The input buttons 14 adjacent to the display screen 13 are the bridge for the user to issue control commands. The user selects the desired function by pressing different buttons, such as adjusting the temperature, setting the operating mode, or starting or stopping the system. Each button is preset with a specific function. Once pressed, it will send a corresponding electrical signal to the control circuit board 2 to input the command.
[0035] The overload protector 15 (JUX-045FBF690-KB) installed on the inner wall of the housing 3 constantly monitors key parameters of the air conditioning system, such as current and voltage. Once an abnormality such as overload or short circuit is detected, it will quickly cut off the power supply or sound an alarm to prevent equipment damage or more serious safety accidents.
[0036] The temperature sensor 16 (PT100) and the flow sensor 17 are responsible for monitoring the temperature and water flow, respectively. The temperature sensor 16 accurately measures the ambient temperature or the temperature of key components of the air-conditioning system, and converts the data into electrical signals for transmission to the control circuit board 2 to adjust the system operating status and maintain a constant indoor temperature. The flow sensor 17 (MFM3081K-10) senses the water flow velocity and flow of the water circulation system in real time to ensure the normal operation of the water circulation. Once insufficient or abnormal water flow is detected, a signal is immediately sent to the control circuit board 2 to trigger the corresponding adjustment or alarm mechanism. Through the close collaboration of various components, not only the accurate reception and execution of user instructions are achieved, but also the stable operation and efficient performance of the air-conditioning system are ensured through real-time monitoring and protection mechanisms, providing users with a safe and comfortable user experience.
[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-3 As shown, guide grooves 18 are provided on the outer walls of the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting shell 3 , and the guide grooves 18 are consistent with the length direction of the mounting shell 3 , and a protective mask 19 is slidably fitted between the two guide grooves 18 .
[0038] In this embodiment, the user can easily open or close the protective mask 19 by sliding it along the direction of the guide groove 18; when the protective mask 19 is in the closed state, it can prevent external factors such as dust, moisture, and impurities from entering the interior of the mounting shell 3, thereby protecting the internal electrical components and control circuit board 2 from damage. At the same time, it can also prevent accidental touch or misoperation, thereby improving the safety and service life of the equipment.
[0039] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-3 As shown, protruding ribs 4 are provided on both sides of the outer surface of the protective mask 19 .
[0040] In this embodiment, the protruding ribs 4 increase the texture and friction of the outer surface of the protective mask 19, so that the user can get a better grip when manually operating the protective mask 19, which helps to reduce operational errors or accidental falling off due to hand slippage, and improves the convenience and safety of use.
[0041] Working Principle: The control circuit board 2 is housed within the side seat 1 of this device. This circuit board is responsible for executing various control commands. The control circuit board 2 is tightly connected to the input control assembly integrated in the external mounting shell 3 via a reliable electrical connection, ensuring that external operating commands can be accurately transmitted to the control circuit board 2 for processing.
[0042] The user sends operating instructions, such as setting the temperature and adjusting the fan speed, through the input control assembly; these instructions are quickly transmitted to the control circuit board 2, which interprets the instructions according to the preset program logic and drives the compressor, fan and other components of the air conditioning system to work together to achieve precise temperature adjustment, humidity control and air purification functions, creating a comfortable environment for the user;
[0043] To ensure stable system operation, multiple protection mechanisms are integrated into the mounting housing 3. The overload protector 15 monitors current and voltage in real time to prevent safety accidents caused by overload or short circuit. The temperature sensor 16 and flow sensor 17 monitor the ambient temperature and water flow respectively to ensure that the system is in optimal working condition. Once an abnormality is detected, the system will immediately respond accordingly, such as cutting off the power supply or issuing an alarm.
[0044] When maintaining or replacing components, the device provides a convenient disassembly and assembly method; the user lightly presses the clamping block 8 to release the locking force, and then pulls the mounting shell 3 outward to achieve quick separation; after maintenance is completed, the mounting shell 3 is aligned with the side seat 1 and pushed in, and the clamping block 8 automatically locks, restoring the controller structure;
[0045] Considering the heat that may be generated by the device during long-term operation, two cooling fans 10 in the mounting housing 3 rotate in opposite directions to create a strong air flow, accelerating heat transfer and dissipation. At the same time, the heat sink 12 and heat dissipation holes 11 increase the heat dissipation area, promote convection and radiation of heat with the surrounding air, and effectively maintain the device within a suitable operating temperature range.
[0046] In addition, the protective mask 19 further improves the safety and durability of the device; the protruding ribs 4 on its outer surface enhance the grip and prevent operational errors; when closed, the protective mask 19 effectively blocks the invasion of external impurities, protects internal components from damage, and prevents accidental touches, thereby improving safety of use.
