[0002] Condensate drainage is a crucial step in the operation of a refrigeration room. Traditional condensate drainage systems are often simple in design, providing only basic condensate collection and discharge functions, but lacking effective mechanisms for handling impurities in the condensate. Over the long-term operation of a refrigeration room, the condensate inevitably carries various impurities, such as dust, metal debris, and microorganisms. If these impurities are not promptly removed, they can not only clog the drainage pipes, preventing the smooth discharge of condensate, but can also reduce refrigeration system efficiency and even cause equipment failure.

[0003] In addition, traditional drainage devices often lack an effective one-way blocking mechanism during the drainage process, which may cause external air or odor to flow back into the refrigeration room through the drainage pipe, causing adverse effects on the air quality in the room and increasing the difficulty and cost of equipment maintenance.

[0022] 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.

[0023] The utility model provides a condensate discharge device for a refrigeration room. Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the device comprises a condensate pan 1, one end of which is connected to a cleaning chamber 2, the outer end of which is connected to a downpipe 3, one end of which is connected to a water seal pipe 4, the outer end of which is connected to a drain pipe 5, the interior of which is fitted with a one-way blocking assembly 6. The bottom of the cleaning chamber 2 is connected to a slag storage tank 25, the interior of which is fitted with a cleaning assembly. Starting from the condensate pan 1, the device effectively collects condensate generated in the refrigeration room. Through the smooth connection of the cleaning chamber 2, downpipe 3, water seal pipe 4, and drain pipe 5, it ensures the rapid and orderly discharge of condensate, prevents accumulation of condensate in the room, and improves the cleanliness and operational efficiency of the room.

[0024] The filtration system within cleaning chamber 2 (including possible first, second, and third filters, though not directly mentioned but inferred from the context) effectively intercepts impurities such as dust and metal debris from the condensate, keeping it clean. Furthermore, slag trough 25 and its internal cleaning components (including shaft 26 and spiral pusher 261) automatically collect and regularly clean impurities, reducing manual intervention and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0025] The one-way blocking assembly 6 installed in the drain pipe 5 ensures the one-way flow of condensed water through its unique blocking groove 61, blocking plate 62, spring 63 and drainage channel 64 design, effectively preventing external air, odor or sewage from flowing back into the refrigeration room through the drainage pipe, thereby protecting the air quality and equipment safety in the room.

[0026] The whole device structure is rationally designed, and the components are tightly connected and easy to disassemble, making it convenient for daily inspection, cleaning and maintenance. In particular, the design of the cleaning bin 2 and the slag storage tank 25 makes the cleaning of impurities simple and fast, reducing maintenance costs.

[0027] In this embodiment, a condensate port 11 is provided at the top of the condensate pan 1. This design allows condensate to be conveniently and directly connected to the drain device, improving the efficiency and convenience of condensate collection. The port also facilitates connection to the condensate output pipe in the refrigeration room, ensuring the integrity and continuity of the condensate drainage system.

[0028] Specifically, a top cover 21 is provided on the top of the cleaning chamber 2, and a first filter 22, a second filter 23, and a third filter 24 are sequentially installed inside the cleaning chamber 2. These three layers of filters can gradually filter out impurities in the condensate, such as dust, metal debris, and microorganisms, effectively improving the cleanliness of the condensate, avoiding pipe blockage and equipment failure, and also extending the service life of the discharge device.

[0029] Furthermore, a slag discharge port 251 is installed at one end of the slag storage tank 25. This design allows impurities intercepted by the filter to be conveniently collected and discharged from the device, avoiding impurity accumulation and secondary contamination. The provision of slag discharge port 251 also facilitates regular cleaning of the slag storage tank, maintaining the cleanliness and efficient operation of the device.

[0030] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly includes a rotating shaft 26, on which is mounted a spiral pusher 261. One end of the rotating shaft 26 is driven by a motor for rotation. This design enables automatic impurity cleaning. When impurities are intercepted by the filter and fall into the slag storage tank 25, the motor drives the rotating shaft 26 to rotate, and the spiral pusher 261 pushes the impurities toward the slag discharge port 251, achieving rapid and automatic discharge of impurities and greatly improving maintenance efficiency and convenience.

[0031] Furthermore, an opening is provided at the bottom of the cleaning bin 2, and the bottom of the opening is communicated with the top of the slag storage tank 25. This design ensures that the impurities intercepted by the filter can fall smoothly into the slag storage tank, avoiding the accumulation and blockage of impurities, and also facilitates the cleaning and discharge of impurities.

[0032] Furthermore, the one-way blocking assembly 6 includes a blocking groove 61, a blocking plate 62 is provided inside the blocking groove 61, a plurality of springs 63 are installed at the bottom of the blocking plate 62, and drainage channels 64 are provided on the side walls at both ends of the blocking groove 61. The top of the drainage channel 64 is located at the end of the blocking plate 62, and the bottom of the drainage channel 64 is connected to the inside of the drain pipe 5. This design realizes the one-way discharge function of condensed water. When the condensed water is discharged through the drain pipe 5, the blocking plate 62 remains in an open state under the action of the spring 63, allowing the condensed water to flow out through the drainage channel 64. When external air or odor tries to flow back in, the blocking plate 62 fits tightly against the side wall of the blocking groove 61 under the action of the spring 63, preventing the occurrence of backflow, and effectively protecting the air quality and equipment safety in the machine room.

[0033] When the condensate drain device for a refrigeration room of the present invention is used, the condensate generated in the refrigeration room first enters the condensate pan 1 through the condensate interface 11, thereby effectively collecting the condensate. The design of the condensate pan 1 ensures that the condensate can be evenly distributed and flows to the cleaning bin 2.

[0034] The condensed water then enters the cleaning chamber 2, where it undergoes preliminary filtration through the first filter 22, removing larger impurities such as dust and metal debris. The condensed water then undergoes further fine filtration through the second and third filters 23 and 24, further removing fine impurities such as microorganisms and ensuring the cleanliness of the condensed water. This three-layer filter system significantly improves the quality of the condensed water and prevents pipe blockages and equipment failures.

[0035] During the filtration process, the impurities intercepted fall into the opening at the bottom of the cleaning chamber 2 and smoothly enter the slag storage tank 25. The cleaning assembly in the slag storage tank 25 begins to work, and the motor drives the rotating shaft 26 to rotate. The spiral pusher 261 on the rotating shaft 26 pushes the impurities toward the slag discharge port 251. In this way, the impurities are quickly and automatically discharged from the device, avoiding impurity accumulation and secondary contamination.

[0036] Subsequently, the clean condensate flows through the downpipe 3 into the water seal pipe 4 and then into the drainpipe 5. Inside the drainpipe 5, the one-way blocking assembly 6 plays an important role. When the condensate passes through, the blocking plate 62 remains open under the action of the spring 63, allowing the condensate to flow out smoothly through the drainage channel 64. When external air or odors attempt to flow back in, the blocking plate 62, under the elastic force of the spring 63, fits tightly against the side wall of the blocking groove 61, forming an effective seal and preventing the occurrence of backflow. In this way, the air quality and equipment safety in the machine room are effectively protected.

[0037] Finally, the condensed water is discharged to a designated location through drain pipe 5, completing the entire discharge process. The entire device features a rationally designed structure, with tightly connected and easily disassembled components, facilitating routine inspection, cleaning, and maintenance. In particular, the design of the cleaning chamber 2 and slag storage tank 25, as well as the use of the one-way blocking assembly 6, simplify and expedite device maintenance, reducing maintenance costs and improving operational efficiency.

[0038] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention.
