Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat pump units, in particular to a heat pump unit system for dehumidification and sweat steaming in a bathing area. Background Art

[0002] Bathing areas are densely populated and have high humidity, necessitating dehumidification. Existing dehumidification equipment has limited functionality. Because heat generation in the bathing area exceeds heat dissipation, excess heat is always generated. Continuous operation causes the bathing area's temperature to rise continuously, making it unbearably hot and stuffy.

[0003] To address this issue, existing bathing areas often incorporate fresh air systems to exhaust hot air from the bathing area, thereby achieving a cooling effect. However, these systems not only waste heat but also cause discomfort to those in the bathing area, as the air outlet temperature is relatively low. Furthermore, if dehumidification equipment is shut down to achieve cooling, the dehumidification function will not be fully realized.

[0004] On the other hand, functional areas such as steam rooms and dragon baths in bathhouses require a stable heat source when using heat pump units to maintain a constant temperature. The hot air in these bathing areas is an ideal heat source. Therefore, effectively combining these two environments can greatly reduce energy waste. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above problem, that is, how to extract heat from the bathing area to use it as a heat source for the unit, the utility model proposes a heat pump unit system for dehumidification and sweat steaming in the bathing area, which includes a heat pump module and an air supply module. The input end of the heat pump module is connected to the dehumidifier installed in the bathing area, the output end of the heat pump module is connected to the heat exchange end of the air supply module, the output end of the air supply module is connected to the sweat steaming area, and the output end of the sweat steaming area is also connected to the air supply module to realize air circulation in the sweat steaming area.

[0006] The present invention is further configured as follows: the sweat steaming area is connected to the bathing area via a ventilation fan.

[0007] The utility model is further configured as follows: the heat pump module includes an evaporator and a condenser, the evaporator is connected to the condenser through an internal heat exchange pipeline, a compressor and an expansion valve are also installed on the internal heat exchange pipeline, the evaporator is connected to the dehumidifier through a heat circulation pipeline for heat exchange between the internal heat exchange pipeline and the heat circulation pipeline; the condenser is connected to the air supply module through a heat output pipeline for transporting heat to the air supply module.

[0008] The utility model is further configured as follows: the air supply module includes a hot air heat exchanger, the hot air heat exchanger is connected to the heat output pipeline, and a fan is installed at the input end of the hot air heat exchanger; it also includes a shell, the hot air heat exchanger and the fan are both installed in the shell, the output end of the shell is connected to an air supply duct, the air supply duct is connected to the sweat steaming area, and the air inlet of the shell is connected to the sweat steaming area.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0010] The heat pump module and the air supply module work together to displace heat from the bathing area during the dehumidification process and then use the displaced heat as a heat source for the steaming area. This significantly reduces energy waste and saves equipment investment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0014] The present invention proposes a heat pump unit system for dehumidifying and steaming a bathing area, comprising a heat pump module 1 and an air supply module 2. The input end of the heat pump module 1 is connected to a dehumidifier 31 installed in a bathing area 3, and during the dehumidification process, the hot air in the bathing area 3 is introduced into the heat pump module 1 for heat exchange. The output end of the heat pump module 1 is connected to the air supply module 2, and the heat pump module 1 exchanges the heat displaced from the air in the bathing area 3 with the air supply module 2. The output end of the air supply module 2 is connected to the steaming area 4, and the output end of the steaming area 4 is also connected to the air supply module 2, so that air circulation in the steaming area 4 is realized through the air supply module 2, and heat is then delivered into the steaming area 4 to meet the heat demand of the steaming area 4.

[0015] The steaming area 4 is connected to the bathing area 3 via a ventilation fan 5. The ventilation fan 5 provides one-way ventilation, that is, ventilation from the steaming area 4 to the bathing area 3. When the temperature in the bathing area 3 is low, the ventilation fan 5 can add heat to the bathing area 3, thereby achieving the purpose of balancing the temperature between the steaming area 4 and the bathing area 3.

[0016] The heat pump module 1 includes an evaporator 11 and a condenser 12. The evaporator 11 and the condenser 12 are connected through an internal heat exchange pipe 13, and a compressor 131 and an expansion valve 132 are also installed on the internal heat exchange pipe 13. The specific installation position and connection method are the same as those of a conventional heat pump structure, so they will not be repeated here.

[0017] The evaporator 11 is connected to the dehumidifier 31 through a heat circulation pipeline. A heat source water pump 61 is installed on the heat circulation pipeline 6 to realize heat exchange between the internal heat exchange pipeline 13 and the heat circulation pipeline 6; the condenser 12 is connected to the air supply module 2 through a heat output pipeline 7. A hot water pump 71 is installed on the heat output pipeline 7 to transport heat to the air supply module 2.

[0018] The air supply module 2 includes a hot air heat exchanger 21. The heat output pipeline 7 is connected to the hot air heat exchanger 21 to transport heat into the hot air heat exchanger 21 through the heat output pipeline 7. A fan 22 is installed at the input end of the hot air heat exchanger 21. The fan 22 can drive air to blow toward the hot air heat exchanger 21, and the flowing air then removes the heat displaced into the hot air heat exchanger 21.

[0019] The air supply module 2 also includes a sealed shell 23, and the hot air heat exchanger 21 and the fan 22 are both installed in the shell 23. The side wall of the shell 23 is connected to an air supply duct 8, and the output end of the air supply duct 8 is connected to the sweat steaming area 4 for supplying hot air into the sweat steaming area 4. The air inlet of the shell 23 is set at its bottom, and the air inlet is also connected to the sweat steaming area 4.

[0020] Through the action of the fan 22, the air in the sweat steaming area 4 is circulated under the action of the shell 23 and the air supply duct 8, and in the process of circulation, the heat in the hot air heat exchanger 21 is continuously taken out, so that the heat is transported into the sweat steaming area 4 to meet the heat demand in the sweat steaming area 4.

[0021] In summary, the present invention, through the cooperation of the heat pump module 1 and the air supply module 2, can not only displace heat from the air in the bathing area 3 during the dehumidification process, but also supply the displaced heat as a heat source to the steaming area 4. This significantly reduces energy waste and saves equipment investment.
