Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0035] Embodiment one:

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the air conditioner condensate water recovery and storage device comprises: a storage tank 300 arranged on the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, a drain outlet of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is connected with the storage tank 300 through a recovery pipe 301, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is responsible for indoor refrigeration / heat, and the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 performs heat exchange, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 generates condensate water, and provides a basis for subsequent recovery and storage; a pressure tank 400 arranged on the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, the storage tank 300 is connected with the pressure tank 400; a water taking pipe 500, one end of the water taking pipe 500 is connected with the pressure tank 400.

[0037] The storage tank 300 is installed on the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, and is used to collect and store the condensed water discharged from the air conditioner indoor unit 100. By effectively recycling the condensed water, the waste of water resources is reduced, and the possibility of recycling is provided. The storage tank 300 is arranged on the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, which means that the storage tank 300 does not occupy indoor space, and the storage tank 300 can not only store the condensed water generated by the air conditioner indoor unit 100, but also can precipitate the collected condensed water; the recovery pipe 301 ensures that the condensed water can flow smoothly into the storage tank 300, and realizes effective recovery of the condensed water.

[0038] With reference to Figure 3 , the storage tank 300 comprises: a first one-way valve 302 installed on the storage tank 300, and the end of the recovery pipe 301 away from the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is connected with the first one-way valve 302; and an overflow pipe 303 arranged through the side wall of the storage tank 300.

[0039] The above-mentioned first one-way valve 302 ensures that the condensed water in the recovery pipe 301 can only flow into the storage tank 300 from the air conditioner indoor unit 100 in one direction, thereby improving the stability and safety of the system; when the condensed water in the storage tank 300 reaches a certain amount, the excess water will be discharged through the overflow pipe 303, thereby preventing the storage tank 300 from overflowing.

[0040] With reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the water pump 600 is arranged between the storage tank 300 and the pressure tank 400, the water inlet pipe of the water pump 600 is communicated with the storage tank 300, and the water outlet pipe of the water pump 600 is communicated with the pressure tank 400; the water pump 600 comprises: a third one-way valve 601 installed on the water outlet pipe of the water pump 600, and the third one-way valve 601 is located between the water pump 600 and the pressure tank 400.

[0041] The pressure tank 400 balances the pressure and stabilizes the water flow through the internal air bag. When the water pump 600 sends the condensed water in the storage tank 300 into the pressure tank 400, the air bag in the pressure tank 400 will be compressed, and the pressure sensor in the pressure tank 400 monitors the pressure in the tank. When the pressure in the pressure tank 400 increases to a certain value, the pressure sensor sends a control signal to the controller of the water pump 600, and the water pump 600 stops working, and the pressure tank 400 also stops water. When the user opens the switch piece 501 at one end of the water taking pipe 500, the air bag pressure will squeeze the condensed water stored in the pressure tank 400, the condensed water will flow out, the pressure in the pressure tank 400 will gradually decrease, and the water pump 600 will start to make water again to supplement the pressure tank 400.

[0042] With reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4The pressure tank 400 comprises a three-way valve 401 installed on the water inlet and outlet of the pressure tank 400, the water outlet pipe of the water pump 600 is communicated with the water inlet of the three-way valve 401, and the water taking pipe 500 is communicated with the water outlet of the three-way valve 401.

[0043] The three-way valve 401 can conveniently control the flow direction of the condensed water, and meets different use requirements.

[0044] With reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the water taking pipe 500 comprises a second one-way valve 502 installed on the water taking pipe 500, and a switch member 501 installed on the end of the water taking pipe 500 away from the pressure tank 400.

[0045] The switch member 501 is a faucet, which can be installed indoors. After the faucet is opened, the air conditioner condensed water in the pressure tank 400 is transported through the water taking pipe 500 and discharged from the faucet. The condensed water can be used at any time by controlling the faucet switch. The condensed water can be used indoors to flush the toilet, mop the floor or water the flowers.

[0046] Embodiment two:

[0047] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the difference between the embodiment and the embodiment one is that:

[0048] The top of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 is provided with a partition plate, and the storage box 300 and the pressure tank 400 are installed on the partition plate. The partition plate is used to stabilize the position of the storage box 300 and the pressure tank 400 on the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, and also facilitates the disassembly, assembly and maintenance.

[0049] The water pump 600 is installed on the outer wall of the storage box 300 through bolts, so that the fixing of the water pump 600 is more firm and not easy to loosen. At the same time, the maintenance and replacement of the water pump 600 are also facilitated.

[0050] The use principle and method of the air conditioner condensed water recycling and storage device are briefly introduced as follows:

[0051] The air conditioner indoor unit 100 generates condensate water during operation according to the cooling / heating demand, the condensate water is discharged through the drain port of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 and flows into the storage tank 300 through the recovery pipe 301, the end of the recovery pipe 301 away from the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is connected with the first one-way valve 302 on the storage tank 300, which ensures that the condensate water can only flow into the storage tank 300 in one direction, preventing backflow and leakage. After the condensate water enters the storage tank 300, it is collected and stored. The storage tank 300 not only stores condensate water, but also plays a role in preliminary sedimentation of the condensate water, removing impurities therein. When the amount of condensate water in the storage tank 300 reaches a certain amount, the excess water will be discharged through the overflow pipe 303 to prevent the storage tank 300 from overflowing. The condensate water in the storage tank 300 is pumped into the pressure tank 400 by the water pump 600, the inlet pipe of the water pump 600 is communicated with the storage tank 300, the outlet pipe is communicated with the pressure tank 400, and the third one-way valve 601 is installed on the outlet pipe to ensure that the condensate water can only flow into the pressure tank 400 in one direction. The pressure tank 400 is provided with an air bag inside for balancing pressure and stabilizing water flow. When the water pump 600 is working, the air bag inside the pressure tank 400 is compressed. After the water pump 600 stops working, the pressure tank 400 stops water inflow. When the user needs to use the condensate water, open the switch piece 501 (faucet) at one end of the water taking pipe 500. The second one-way valve 502 is installed on the water taking pipe 500 to ensure that the condensate water can only flow out in one direction to prevent backflow. After the faucet is opened, the condensate water in the pressure tank 400 is extruded by the pressure of the air bag and flows out through the water taking pipe 500. The user can use the condensate water at any time for indoor activities such as flushing the toilet, mopping the floor or watering the flowers. When the pressure in the pressure tank 400 gradually decreases, the water pump 600 will automatically restart to pump the condensate water in the storage tank 300 into the pressure tank 400 again to supplement the water amount in the pressure tank 400. The water pump 600 is installed on the outer wall of the storage tank 300 by bolts, which is firm and convenient for maintenance and replacement. When maintenance or replacement of the water pump 600 is needed, the water pump 600 can be removed for operation by loosening the bolts.

[0052] Compared with the prior art, the air conditioner condensate water recovery and storage device has the following beneficial effects:
