DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] like Figure 1 As shown, a water source heat pump hot water air conditioning unit of the present invention includes: a compressor 1, a three-way solenoid valve 2, a four-way reversing valve 3, an air conditioning heat exchanger 4, a water source heat exchanger 5, a hot water heat exchanger 6, a first filter 7, a second filter 8, a third filter 9, a first expansion valve 10, a second expansion valve 11 and a gas-liquid separator 12.

[0013] The exhaust pipe of the compressor 1 is connected to the input port of the three-way solenoid valve 2, the first output port of the three-way solenoid valve 2 is connected to the first valve port of the four-way reversing valve 3, and the second valve port of the four-way reversing valve 3 is connected to the first port of the water source heat exchanger 5. The third valve port of the four-way reversing valve 3 is connected to the inlet of the gas-liquid separator 12, and the outlet of the gas-liquid separator 12 is connected to the intake pipe of the compressor 1. The fourth valve port of the four-way reversing valve 3 is connected to the first port of the air conditioning heat exchanger 4. A second filter 8, a second expansion valve 11, and a third filter 9 are sequentially provided on the pipeline connecting the second port of the water source heat exchanger 5 and the second port of the air conditioning heat exchanger 4. The second output port of the three-way solenoid valve 2 is connected to the first port of the hot water heat exchanger 6, and the second port of the hot water heat exchanger 6 is connected to the second port of the water source heat exchanger 5 through the first filter 7 and the first expansion valve 10.

[0014] A pressure switch 14 and a temperature sensor 15 are provided on both the exhaust pipe and the intake pipe of the compressor 1 .

[0015] The hot water heat exchanger 6, air conditioning heat exchanger 4, and water source heat exchanger 5 are all equipped with water inlet and outlet pipes. The water source heat exchanger 5's water inlet pipe is connected to an underground water pumping well 17, while its outlet pipe is connected to an underground return well 18. The air conditioning heat exchanger 4's water inlet and outlet pipes are connected to the user's end-user air conditioning equipment; the hot water heat exchanger 6's water inlet and outlet pipes are connected to a hot water storage tank.

[0016] A temperature sensor 15 is provided on each water inlet pipe and outlet pipe of the hot water heat exchanger 6, the air conditioning heat exchanger 4, and the water source heat exchanger 5, and a water flow switch 16 is provided on each water outlet pipe; the water flow switch 16, the pressure switch 14, and the temperature sensor 15 are all connected to the controller.

[0017] A sight glass 13 is provided on the pipeline connecting the second port of the air-conditioning heat exchanger 4 and the second port of the water source heat exchanger 5 .

[0018] The utility model discloses a water source heat pump hot water air conditioning unit with three functions of cooling, heating and hot water supply.

[0019] During cooling operation, compressor 1 discharges high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, which enters the input port of three-way solenoid valve 2. It then exits through the first output port of three-way solenoid valve 2 and enters the first port of four-way reversing valve 3. From the second port of four-way reversing valve 3, it enters water source heat exchanger 5, where it exchanges heat with groundwater from underground pumping well 17 flowing into water source heat exchanger 5, condenses, and releases heat. The refrigerant's temperature is lowered by the groundwater in water source heat exchanger 5 before flowing out of the outlet pipe and back into underground return well 18. After heat exchange, the refrigerant changes from gas to liquid, passes through second filter 8, second expansion valve 11, and third filter 9, and becomes a medium-temperature liquid refrigerant. The medium-temperature liquid refrigerant enters air conditioning heat exchanger 4, absorbs heat from the air conditioning water, and evaporates. The generated cooling energy is then exchanged with the air conditioning circulating water, and then flows out of the outlet pipe of air conditioning heat exchanger 4 for air conditioning cooling. The evaporated low-pressure medium-temperature gaseous refrigerant enters the fourth valve port of the electromagnetic four-way valve 3 , then flows out from the third valve port of the electromagnetic four-way valve 3 into the gas-liquid separator 12 , and finally returns to the compressor 1 .

[0020] During heating operation, high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant discharged from compressor 1 enters the input port of three-way solenoid valve 2. It then flows out of the first output port of three-way solenoid valve 2 and into the first port of four-way reversing valve 3. It then flows out of the fourth port of four-way reversing valve 3 into air conditioning heat exchanger 4, where it condenses and releases heat. The refrigerant's temperature is then exchanged with the circulating water in air conditioning heat exchanger 4 before being supplied to the air conditioner. The high-pressure, medium-temperature refrigerant liquid, throttled and reduced in pressure by the third filter 9, second expansion valve 11, and second filter 8, enters water source heat exchanger 5, where it absorbs heat and evaporates. The generated cooling energy is then exchanged with groundwater in water source heat exchanger 5 and flows back to the underground return well 18 through the outlet pipe. The evaporated, low-pressure, medium-temperature gaseous refrigerant enters the second port of four-way reversing valve 3, flows out of the third port into gas-liquid separator 12, and ultimately returns to compressor 1.

[0021] When hot water is supplied: compressor 1 discharges high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant, enters the input port of the three-way solenoid valve 2, and enters the hot water heat exchanger 6 after being output from the second output port of the three-way solenoid valve 2. It exchanges heat with the circulating water in the hot water heat exchanger 6, and the condensed liquid refrigerant enters the first filter 7 and the first expansion valve 10. The medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant after throttling and pressure reduction enters the water source heat exchanger 5, absorbs the heat of the groundwater in the water source heat exchanger 5 and becomes gaseous, then enters the second valve port of the electromagnetic four-way valve 3, and then flows out from the third valve port of the electromagnetic four-way valve 3 into the gas-liquid separator 12, and finally returns to the compressor 1.
