Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of electrical appliances, and in particular relates to a high-efficiency dehumidifier. Background Technology

[0002] A dehumidifier works by using a fan to draw in humid outside air. The air passes through a dehumidification component, where water molecules condense into water droplets. The treated, dry air is then expelled from the machine, and this cycle maintains a suitable relative humidity level indoors. Therefore, the efficiency of a dehumidifier generally depends on its airflow volume and the condensation efficiency of its internal dehumidification components. Currently, to improve efficiency, manufacturers often increase the size of the fan and dehumidification components, for example, by installing multiple sets of dehumidification components and extending the airflow channels within the machine. This allows air to pass through multiple dehumidification components for dehumidification before being expelled. While this does improve dehumidification efficiency, it also necessitates a larger overall size. Furthermore, the need for miniaturization necessitates simplifying the dehumidification components, resulting in poorer dehumidification performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-efficiency dehumidifier, whose design of multiple condenser components with reasonable arrangement greatly improves efficiency.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a high-efficiency dehumidifier, including a body, a dehumidification component and an air inlet component. The body has a dehumidification inner cavity, and the body is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet that communicate with the dehumidification inner cavity.

[0005] The dehumidification assembly includes a mounting bracket and a condensation assembly mounted on the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is located inside the dehumidification cavity and separates the air inlet and the air outlet. The air inlet is located on the front side of the mounting bracket, the air inlet assembly is located on the rear side of the mounting bracket and the air outlet direction is towards the mounting bracket, and the air outlet is located between the mounting bracket and the air inlet assembly.

[0006] The condensation assembly includes at least three sets of condensation elements arranged side by side, with the condensation elements facing the air inlet.

[0007] As described above, in a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the condensation assembly further includes a semiconductor refrigeration chip and a heat sink. The number of semiconductor refrigeration chips corresponds one-to-one with the number of condensation components. The semiconductor refrigeration chip is mounted on a mounting bracket, with its cold end connected to the condensation component and its hot end connected to the heat sink. The heat sink is opposite to the air outlet, and the air inlet assembly is opposite to the heat sink.

[0008] As described above, in a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the condenser includes a substrate and a plurality of condenser fins vertically disposed on the substrate, the plurality of condenser fins being spaced apart laterally.

[0009] As described above, in a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the air inlet is a grid opening located on the front of the unit and arranged horizontally, and the horizontal length of the air inlet is less than or equal to the length of three sets of condenser components arranged side by side.

[0010] As described above, in a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the heat dissipation component includes multiple horizontally arranged heat dissipation fins, which are spaced apart in a vertical direction. Adjacent heat dissipation fins form air guide channels that guide both sides. The air outlet is located at the end of the air guide channels and is opposite to the multiple heat dissipation fins.

[0011] As described above, the high-efficiency dehumidifier has two air outlets, located on opposite sides of the body and opposite to the end of the air guide channel.

[0012] In the high-efficiency dehumidifier described above, the air inlet assembly is connected to the mounting bracket and is opposite to the heat sink.

[0013] As described above, in a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the air inlet assembly includes a connecting frame and a fan. The connecting frame is connected to the mounting bracket to form a second cavity for accommodating the heat sink. The two sides of the second cavity are respectively connected to the air outlet. The fan is mounted on the connecting frame and the air outlet direction is towards the second cavity.

[0014] In the high-efficiency dehumidifier described above, the lateral length of the heat-dissipating fins is greater than or equal to the length of three sets of condenser components arranged side by side, and there are two fans, with the lateral length of the two fans arranged side by side being less than or equal to the lateral length of the heat-dissipating fins.

[0015] The high-efficiency dehumidifier described above also includes a water tank, and a water collection tray is provided on the lower side of the condenser, the water collection tray having a drain outlet connected to the water tank.

[0016] Implementing the embodiments of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model provides a high-efficiency dehumidifier. Inside the machine body, the air inlet and air outlet are separated by a mounting bracket. In addition, three sets of parallel condenser components are arranged opposite the air inlet, so that the humid outside air entering from the air inlet can better contact the condenser components to dehumidify. After dehumidification, the air bypasses the mounting bracket and is discharged from the air outlet. This solution, through reasonable structural design, effectively utilizes a small space to maximize the dehumidification effect, thereby achieving high-efficiency dehumidification.

[0018] 2. This utility model adopts an installation method in which two fans are directly covered on the back side of the heat dissipation fins. This not only makes the structure compact, but also facilitates the airflow to be directed to the air outlet, so that it will inevitably flow through the heat dissipation component, thereby removing the heat from the heat dissipation component and improving the heat dissipation efficiency. Moreover, combined with the characteristics of the semiconductor cooling chip, the dehumidification efficiency is also significantly improved.

[0019] 3. The air inlet and outlet of this utility model are rationally arranged, which can avoid the air inlet being easily blocked by the wall when air is intaked from the back, thus affecting the air intake and reducing the dehumidification capacity. The front air intake of the product is more in line with the needs of user scenarios, which can increase the air intake and correspondingly improve the dehumidification efficiency.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a high-efficiency dehumidifier, including a body 1, a dehumidification component, and an air inlet component. The body 1 has a dehumidification inner cavity 101, and the body 1 is provided with an air inlet 102 and an air outlet 103 communicating with the dehumidification inner cavity 101. The dehumidification component includes a mounting bracket 21 and a condensation component disposed on the mounting bracket 21. The mounting bracket 21 is disposed in the dehumidification inner cavity 101 and separates the air inlet 102 and the air outlet 103. The air inlet 102 is located on the front side of the mounting bracket 21, the air inlet component is located on the rear side of the mounting bracket 21 and the air outlet direction is towards the mounting bracket 21, and the air outlet 103 is located between the mounting bracket 21 and the air inlet component. The air inlet and air outlet are separated inside the body by the mounting bracket, which effectively and rationally utilizes the dehumidification inner cavity 101, thereby extending and restricting the path of air entering from the air inlet and flowing out from the air outlet, and using the dehumidification component set on this path to dehumidify the air.

[0027] Specifically, the condensation assembly includes at least three sets of condenser elements 31 arranged side by side, with each condenser element 31 facing the air inlet 102. The arrangement of three sets of condenser elements facing the air inlet allows humid outside air to better contact the condenser elements after entering through the air inlet, thus dehumidifying the air. The dehumidified air then bypasses the mounting bracket and is discharged through the air outlet. This solution, through its rational structural design, effectively maximizes the dehumidification effect within a small space, thereby achieving highly efficient dehumidification.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, the main feature is the horizontal arrangement of three sets of parallel condenser elements 31 within the internal space of the unit, specifically the dehumidification cavity 101. This horizontal arrangement increases the contact area with the airflow, allowing the air intake assembly to drive in a large volume of air to meet dehumidification requirements. Furthermore, the horizontal parallel arrangement allows for a larger air inlet, increasing the air intake area and improving intake efficiency.

[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, the condensation assembly further includes a thermoelectric cooler 32 and a heat sink 33. The number of thermoelectric coolers 32 corresponds one-to-one with the number of condensers 31. The thermoelectric cooler 32 is mounted on the mounting bracket 21, with its cold end connected to the condenser 31 and its hot end connected to the heat sink 33. The heat sink 33 is opposite to the air outlet 103, and the air inlet assembly is opposite to the heat sink 33. The core of the condensation assembly in this solution is the thermoelectric cooler 32, eliminating the need for a compressor, refrigerant, or complex mechanical parts. Its compact structure makes it more suitable for miniaturized and portable designs, especially in space-constrained environments.

[0030] Furthermore, since the three sets of condenser elements 31 are arranged horizontally side by side, the three semiconductor cooling chips 32 connected to them are also arranged horizontally. Preferably, the three semiconductor cooling chips 32 are aligned horizontally at the same level. Since their size is smaller than that of the condenser elements 31, the three semiconductor cooling chips 32 are spaced apart, which can maximize the dehumidification efficiency. If the spacing between the cooling chips is too large or too small, it will affect the dehumidification capacity. For example, in some conventional condenser element 31 sizes, the spacing between two semiconductor cooling chips 32 is preferably 70 mm.

[0031] In this embodiment of the present invention, based on the structure of the thermoelectric cooler 32, it is preferable to use a hollow mounting portion on the mounting bracket 21 to install the thermoelectric cooler 32, so that after the thermoelectric cooler 32 is installed, its cold end face is exposed from the front of the mounting bracket 21 and its hot end face is exposed from the back of the mounting bracket 21, thereby meeting the above-mentioned installation requirements.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the condenser 31 includes a substrate 311 and a plurality of condenser fins 312 vertically disposed on the substrate 311, the plurality of condenser fins 312 being arranged at horizontal intervals. It can be understood that the three sets of condensers 31 have the same structure, so the horizontally arranged side-by-side arrangement forms multiple vertical intervals. These intervals effectively block and guide the airflow entering from the front, thus directing the airflow towards the outlet direction as it passes through the condenser 31.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the direction of the arrow is the direction of airflow. The air enters the dehumidification cavity 101 from the air inlet 102 of the body 1, first contacts the condenser 31, is guided to the upper side by the condenser, flows past the rear side of the mounting bracket 21, passes through the heat sink 33, and flows out from the air outlets 103 on both sides. Of course, its flow path is driven by the fan 42.

[0034] Of course, as the airflow passes over the condenser fins, moisture condenses into water droplets on the condenser fins. To facilitate drainage, this solution also includes a water tank 5. A water collection tray 6 is also provided on the lower side of the condenser 31, and the water collection tray 6 has a drain outlet 61 connected to the water tank 5. Specifically, water droplets fall along the condenser fins and collect in the water collection tray 6. This solution allows the water accumulated in the water collection tray to be discharged into the water tank 5 through the drain outlet 61, which is beneficial for users to clean in a timely manner.

[0035] More specifically, the body 1 of this solution adopts a split-type shell, such as the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 that are connected together, while the water tank 5 can be a detachable water tank that is directly installed on the lower side of the body 1. After installation and connection, the water tank and the drain port 61 of the water receiving tray 6 are aligned.

[0036] Of course, in some embodiments, the water tank 5 may also be integrated into the body 1.

[0037] In this design, the water tray 6 can also be separately installed on the underside of the condenser 31. To facilitate drainage, its bottom is a guide bottom that slopes towards the drain outlet, allowing dripping water droplets to flow along the slope towards the drain outlet. Preferably, in this design, the water tray 6 is directly installed on the mounting bracket 21 and can be integrally formed with the mounting bracket 21.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, the air inlet and air outlet are rationally arranged, which avoids the air inlet being easily blocked by the wall when air is intaked from the back, thus preventing a decrease in air intake and dehumidification. Front air intake better meets the needs of user scenarios, increasing air intake and consequently improving dehumidification efficiency. Specifically, the air inlet 102 is a horizontally arranged grid opening on the front of the unit 1, and the horizontal length of the air inlet 102 is less than or equal to the length of three sets of condenser components 31 arranged side by side. Similarly, the air outlet is located on the side of the unit 1, allowing the unit to be placed against a wall from the back, better meeting the needs of various usage scenarios.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, the heat sink 33 comprises multiple horizontally arranged heat-dissipating fins, which are spaced apart vertically. Adjacent heat-dissipating fins form airflow channels that guide airflow to both sides. The air outlet 103 is located at the end of these airflow channels and faces the multiple heat-dissipating fins. This horizontally spaced airflow channel ensures that the airflow direction is guided to the air outlet through these channels. This structural design not only makes the structure compact but also ensures that when airflow is directed to the air outlet, it flows through the heat sink, thereby carrying away heat and improving heat dissipation efficiency. Furthermore, combined with the characteristics of the semiconductor cooling chip, the dehumidification efficiency is also significantly improved.

[0040] Of course, the air outlet 103 described in this solution has two parts, which are located on opposite sides of the body 1 and opposite to the end of the air guide channel.

[0041] To further improve heat dissipation efficiency, the air inlet assembly is connected to the mounting bracket 21 and faces the heat sink 33. Specifically, the air inlet assembly includes a connecting frame 41 and a fan 42. The connecting frame 41 is connected to the mounting bracket 21 to form a second cavity 401 accommodating the heat sink 33. The two sides of the second cavity 401 are respectively connected to the air outlet 103. The fan 42 is mounted on the connecting frame 41 and the air outlet direction is towards the second cavity 401. Essentially, the second cavity 401 completely separates the air outlet 103 from the air inlet 102. The airflow from the fan 42 first enters the second cavity 401, then passes through the heat sink 33 and is guided to the air outlets on both sides for discharge, thereby effectively removing heat from the heat sink and achieving a good heat dissipation effect.

[0042] In addition, the air outlet 103 of this solution is a notch opposite to both sides of the second cavity 401, which directly connects to the outside. The heat dissipation component 33 installed in the second cavity 401 has its two sides located at the notch, which are also directly opposite to the outside, so that the heat dissipation component can directly dissipate the heat, which is also conducive to improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the lateral length of the heat-dissipating fins is greater than or equal to the length of the three sets of condenser elements 31 arranged side by side, and there are two fans 42, with the lateral length of the two fans 42 arranged side by side being less than or equal to the lateral length of the heat-dissipating fins. This solution, through a reasonable structural design, arranges three sets of condenser elements, three sets of semiconductor cooling chips, and two fans within the lateral space, which can increase the air intake volume, thereby improving dehumidification efficiency. Furthermore, the larger airflow also improves heat dissipation efficiency.

[0044] This utility model provides a high-efficiency dehumidifier. Inside the machine body, the air inlet and air outlet are separated by a mounting bracket. In addition, three sets of parallel condenser components are arranged opposite the air inlet, so that the humid outside air entering from the air inlet can better contact the condenser components for dehumidification. After dehumidification, the air bypasses the mounting bracket and is discharged from the air outlet. This solution, through reasonable structural design, effectively maximizes the dehumidification effect in a small space, thereby achieving high-efficiency dehumidification.
