[0003] Chinese patent CN211372668U discloses a dehumidifying air conditioner, including a housing. The bottom inner wall of the housing is sequentially equipped with a pre-filter, three oppositely placed water collection tanks, a heater, a fan, and a medium-efficiency filter. Each of the three water collection tanks has two support platforms welded to its bottom. On the outer wall of the top of one support platform, heat pipe heat exchanger one, heat pipe heat exchanger two, and heat pipe heat exchanger three are respectively installed.

However, this device still has the following problems:
[0004] This device uses a heat pipe heat exchanger in conjunction with a heater to achieve the initial cooling and subsequent heating of air, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the absolute humidity of the air is reduced by first cooling the air and then the relative humidity is reduced by heating the air. However, cooling the air first requires transferring the heat from the air, and the heat transferred during cooling cannot be utilized when heating the air, which reduces the heat utilization efficiency and increases the cost.
[0005] Based on this, the present invention designs a composite heat pipe integrated air conditioning unit to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0014] Furthermore, the heat pipe condenser is no less than the heat pipe evaporator.
[0015] Furthermore, both the heat pipe evaporator and the heat pipe condenser also include a tooling frame, a tooling plate, manifolds, and a quick-release mounting assembly.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the fan drives the air to move from the left side to the right side inside the air conditioning unit; heat exchange is achieved through the dehumidification unit, which lowers the temperature on the left side of the air conditioning unit and raises the temperature on the right side of the electrical control box. Simultaneously, the surface cooler lowers the temperature on the left side of the air conditioning unit, while the heat coil raises the temperature on the right side. When the air flows through the left side of the air conditioning unit, the dehumidification unit, in conjunction with the surface cooler, lowers the air temperature, causing the air to stabilize at the dew point and condense through the surface cooler, thus reducing the absolute humidity. When the air moves to the right side of the air conditioning unit, the dehumidification unit, in conjunction with the heat coil, raises the air temperature, thus reducing the relative humidity. Through the combined action of the dehumidification unit, surface cooler, and heat coil, the air first cools and condenses, reducing the absolute humidity, and then heats the air to reduce the relative humidity, ultimately improving the efficiency of humidity reduction. Furthermore, heat circulation reduces energy consumption, thus lowering costs. Precise temperature control is achieved through electrical components such as the touchscreen PLC temperature module and valve control module. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0030] The terms "left," "right," "front," "back," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to the orientation from the perspective of the front view.
[0031] Example 1: In some embodiments, please refer to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-8 The integrated heat pipe air conditioning unit includes an air conditioning unit 11;
[0032] An electrical control box 12 is fixedly connected to the outside of the air conditioning unit 11; a dehumidification unit is connected inside the air conditioning unit 11; a surface cooler 13, a heating coil 14, and a fan 15 are fixedly connected inside the air conditioning unit 11.
[0033] In this invention, the fan 15 drives air to move from the left side to the right side inside the air conditioning unit 11. Heat exchange occurs through the dehumidification unit, causing the temperature on the left side of the air conditioning unit 11 to decrease and the temperature on the right side of the electrical control box 12 to increase. Simultaneously, the surface cooler 13 lowers the temperature on the left side of the air conditioning unit 11, while the heating coil 14 raises the temperature on the right side. When air flows through the left side of the air conditioning unit 11, the dehumidification unit, in conjunction with the surface cooler 13, lowers the air temperature until it stabilizes at the dew point and condenses through the surface cooler 13. The system reduces absolute humidity. When air moves to the right side inside the air conditioning unit 11, the air temperature is increased by the dehumidification unit and the heating coil 14, thereby reducing relative humidity. The dehumidification unit, the surface cooler 13, and the heating coil 14 work together to cool the air, causing condensation and reducing absolute humidity. Then, the air is heated to reduce relative humidity, ultimately improving the efficiency of humidity reduction. The heat circulation also reduces energy consumption and costs. Precise temperature control is achieved through electrical components such as the touch screen PLC temperature module and valve control module.
[0034] The dehumidification unit includes a compressor housing 211, a refrigeration evaporator 212, an expansion valve 213, and a refrigeration condenser 214. The compressor housing 211 is fixedly connected to the inside of the air conditioning unit 11. The compressor 2111 and the expansion valve 213 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the compressor housing 211. The refrigeration condenser 214 is located on the right side of the surface cooler 13 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air conditioning unit 11. The output end of the compressor 2111 is connected to the input end of the refrigeration evaporator 212 through a pipe. The output end of the refrigeration evaporator 212 is connected to the input end of the expansion valve 213 through a pipe. The output end of the expansion valve 213 is connected to the input end of the refrigeration condenser 214 through a pipe. The output end of the refrigeration condenser 214 is connected to the input end of the compressor housing 211 through a pipe. The side wall of the compressor housing 211 is provided with an inspection door for easy maintenance of the compressor 2111.
[0035] Preferred, such as Figure 3 As shown, the expansion valve 213 can be installed on the outside of the compression chamber 211, and at this time the expansion valve 213 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air conditioning chamber 11.
[0036] The dehumidification unit also includes a heat pipe evaporator 221, a heat pipe condenser 222, heat exchange pipes 223, and a water guide plate 224. The heat pipe evaporator 221 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air conditioning unit 11, and its upper end is fixedly connected to the refrigeration evaporator 212. The heat pipe condenser 222 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the refrigeration condenser 214. The heat pipe condenser 222 is not lower than the heat pipe evaporator 221, and the heat pipe evaporator 221 and the heat pipe condenser 222 are connected by multiple heat exchange pipes 223. A water guide plate 224 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heat pipe evaporator 221, separating the refrigeration evaporator 212.
[0037] In this invention, compressor 2111 delivers high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant to evaporator 212. Evaporator 212 exchanges heat with the air on the right side inside the air conditioning unit 11, causing the air temperature on the right side to rise. The refrigerant inside evaporator 212 cools and condenses into a liquid, entering expansion valve 213. Expansion valve 213 transforms the liquid refrigerant into a low-temperature gas-liquid mixture. This gas-liquid mixture then enters evaporator 212, where it exchanges heat with the air on the left side inside the air conditioning unit 11. As the temperature on the left side of the interior of the housing 11 decreases, the refrigerant inside the evaporator 212 enters the compressor 2111, where it is compressed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas, thus achieving refrigerant circulation. When the high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the condenser 214, the heat from the refrigerant passes through the water guide plate 224 and is transferred to the gaseous heat exchanger inside the heat pipe condenser 222, causing the refrigerant inside the condenser 214 to cool down more quickly. The gaseous heat exchanger inside the heat pipe condenser 222 absorbs heat and moves into the air conditioning housing 11. The air on the right side of the unit is heated, and the heat exchanger cools down and condenses into a liquid heat exchanger. The liquid heat exchanger flows through heat exchange pipe 223 to the inside of the heat pipe evaporator 221 on the left side. When the low-temperature gas-liquid mixture of refrigerant enters the inside of the evaporator 212, the liquid refrigerant inside the heat pipe evaporator 221 transfers heat to the refrigerant inside the evaporator 212, causing the refrigerant inside the evaporator 212 to heat up more quickly. The liquid heat exchanger inside the heat pipe evaporator 221 releases heat and cools the air moving to the left side of the air conditioning unit 11. As the temperature rises, the heat exchanger vaporizes into a gaseous heat exchanger. The gaseous heat exchanger moves to the right side through the heat exchange pipe 223 to the inside of the heat pipe condenser 222. The heat pipe evaporator 221 absorbs heat from the refrigeration condenser 214 and releases heat to the air inside the right side of the air conditioning unit 11, causing the temperature of the refrigeration condenser 214 to drop faster. The heat pipe condenser 222 releases heat to the refrigeration evaporator 212 and absorbs heat from the air inside the left side of the air conditioning unit 11, causing the temperature of the refrigeration evaporator 212 to rise faster, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigeration evaporator 212 and the refrigeration condenser 214.
[0038] The heat pipe evaporator 221 and heat pipe condenser 222 both include a tooling frame 31, a tooling plate 32, a manifold 33, and a quick-release mounting assembly 34. The tooling plate 32 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the tooling frame 31. The manifold 33 is fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the tooling plate 32. The manifold 33 on the left and right sides are respectively connected to the input end and the output end of the refrigeration device through pipes. Multiple finned tubes for refrigerant flow are provided on the inner side of the tooling plate 32. The left and right ends of the finned tubes are connected to the manifold 33 on the left and right sides. The quick-release mounting assembly 34 for quick assembly and disassembly of the tooling plate 32 is connected to the right side of the tooling frame 31.
[0039] The quick-release installation assembly 34 includes a movable frame 341, a fixed limiting block 342, a movable limiting block 343, a cam 344, a spring 345, and a handle 346. The movable frame 341 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the tooling frame 31. Two fixed limiting blocks 342 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the left side of the air conditioning unit 11. Two movable limiting blocks 343 are fixedly connected to the left end of the movable frame 341. A cam 344 is rotatably connected to the right end of the tooling frame 31. A handle 346 is fixedly connected to the right end of the cam 344. Multiple springs 345 are fixedly connected to the right end of the movable frame 341. The right ends of the springs 345 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the right side of the tooling frame 31.
[0040] In this invention, the movable frame 341 is aligned and inserted with the left manifold 33. The handle 346 drives the cam 344 to rotate, and the cam 344 drives the movable frame 341 to slide to the left. The spring 345 is stretched. When the distal end of the cam 344 is in contact with the side wall of the movable frame 341, the movable limiting block 343 is inserted with the right manifold 33. At this time, the cam 344 cannot rotate, thus fixing the movable limiting block 343. The movable limiting block 343, together with the movable frame 341, fixes the tooling plate 32. When it is necessary to disassemble and replace the tooling plate 32, the handle 346 is turned counterclockwise. The spring 345 drives the movable limiting block 343 to reset through the movable frame 341, releasing the lock on the tooling plate 32, thus facilitating the replacement of the tooling plate 32.
[0041] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
