Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of dehumidifier equipment, specifically relating to a rotary housing and a rotary dehumidifier. Background Technology
[0002] A dehumidifier is a device that controls and reduces indoor air humidity. It is widely used in homes, businesses, and industrial environments to provide a more comfortable environment and prevent items from being damaged by moisture.
[0003] A rotary dehumidifier typically includes key components such as a fan assembly, a condenser, a moisture-absorbing impeller, an impeller housing, a drainage system, and a heating element. During operation, the fan assembly draws in humid air, which is then cooled and dehumidified by the condenser. The air is then heated by the heating element and enters the impeller for further drying before being exhausted through the hot air duct of the impeller support. However, existing impeller supports usually include a single hot air duct outlet surrounded by a flat shell. This structure suffers from poor heat dissipation. When hot air exits through the hot air duct, some of it accumulates in the impeller support body around the outlet, leading to localized overheating and further hindering heat dissipation, thus affecting the stability and dehumidification efficiency of the equipment. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model proposes a rotary dehumidifier and a rotary housing, which solves the problem of hot airflow accumulating in the rotary support body, improves heat dissipation efficiency, ensures smooth airflow, enhances equipment stability and dehumidification effect, and extends service life.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] A dehumidifier housing includes a dehumidifier frame and a dehumidifier support. The front of the dehumidifier frame has a first receiving cavity for accommodating a moisture-absorbing dehumidifier, and the back of the dehumidifier frame is engaged and fixed with the dehumidifier support. The dehumidifier frame has a cold air channel, and the dehumidifier support has a hot air channel. The side of the dehumidifier support that is in contact with the dehumidifier frame has a concave surface, and a hot air retention space is formed in the concave surface. The concave surface is connected to the hot air channel.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the wheel frame is provided with a support portion that converges toward the center of the first receiving cavity, and the wheel support is fixed to the support portion.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a temperature control sensor is provided on the concave surface of the rotary wheel support.
[0009] On the other hand, this utility model also provides a rotary dehumidifier, including a body and the aforementioned rotary housing. Further, a heating device and a fan assembly are sequentially provided on the front side of the rotary housing, and a condensing device is provided on the back side of the rotary housing. In addition, an air inlet slot is provided on the side of the body located on the condensing device, a water tank is provided below the body, and a drainage channel connected to the water tank is provided below the condensing device.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the device further includes a motor, the output shaft of which is connected to a first gear, and a second gear is correspondingly provided on the outer periphery of the moisture-absorbing wheel, wherein the first gear and the second gear are meshed together.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the wheel frame is further provided with a second receiving cavity, the motor is fixed in the second receiving cavity, and the second receiving cavity is connected to the first receiving cavity.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0013] This utility model provides a rotor housing and a rotor dehumidifier. The rotor housing is used inside the dehumidifier to house the moisture-absorbing rotor. The rotor housing includes a rotor frame and a rotor support. By optimizing the structure of the rotor support, specifically by providing a concave surface on the rotor support next to the hot air channel, a hot air retention space is formed on the side of the rotor support that is relatively in contact with the moisture-absorbing rotor. This solves the problems in the prior art where, after the heating device heats the cold air, the hot airflow accumulates in the hot air channel of the rotor support, hindering smooth airflow, resulting in poor heat dissipation and excessively high local temperatures. This ensures the stability and dehumidification effect of the rotor dehumidifier and extends its service life. Attached Figure Description

[0035] See Figures 1 to 5 This utility model discloses a rotor housing and a rotor dehumidifier. The rotor housing 10 includes a rotor frame 11 and a rotor support 12. The front of the rotor frame 11 has a first receiving cavity 111 for accommodating the rotor, and the back of the rotor frame 11 is engaged and fixed with the rotor support 12. The rotor frame 11 has a cold air channel 112, and the rotor support 12 has a hot air channel 121. The side of the rotor support 12 that is in contact with the rotor frame 11 has a concave surface 122, forming a hot air retention space. The concave surface 122 is connected to the hot air channel 121. By designing the surface of the rotor support 12 as a concave structure, the concave surface 122 of the rotor support 12 forms a hot air retention space, which solves the problem of hot air accumulating in the rotor support 12 body and causing excessively high local temperature when hot air is discharged from the hot air channel 121 in traditional designs. This ensures the high efficiency and safe operation of the dehumidifier during long-term operation.
[0036] Specifically, the rotor housing 10 is located inside the rotary dehumidifier. In common patented dehumidifiers, the body typically includes a condenser 50, a moisture-absorbing rotor 40, a heating device 30, and a fan assembly 20. During the dehumidifier's operation, airflow is first drawn into the body through the fan assembly 20, cooled by the condenser 50, causing water vapor in the air to condense into water droplets, which then flow into the drain channel 60 below the condenser 50. Subsequently, the pre-dehumidified air continues forward, becoming a drier and cooler airflow. Next, this cooled air enters the heating device 30 through the cold air channel 112 on the rotor frame 11, where it is restored to near room temperature.
[0037] It is important to note that, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 The heating device 30 includes a heating inlet 31 and a heating outlet 32. The heating inlet 31 is connected to the cold air channel 112, and the heating outlet 31 is aligned with the hot air channel 121 of the rotary support 12, but the heating outlet 31 is slightly larger than the hot air channel 121. A moisture-absorbing rotary wheel 40 separates the heating outlet 31 from the hot air channel 121. Here, the moisture-absorbing rotary wheel 40 further absorbs the remaining moisture, so that the air reaches the ideal degree of dryness. After being processed by the moisture-absorbing rotary wheel 40, the dry but still warm air flows into the rotary support 12.
[0038] The rotor support 12 is usually provided with a hot air channel 121. In the traditional design, the hot air channel 121 is surrounded by a flat shell, while the heating outlet 31 of the heating device 30 is slightly larger than the size of the hot air channel 121. Therefore, when the hot air is discharged, some hot air tends to accumulate in the body of the rotor support 12 (i.e., in the flat shell around the hot air channel 121), which hinders the smooth flow of air, resulting in poor heat dissipation and excessively high local temperature, affecting the performance of the equipment.
[0039] To overcome this problem, this invention provides a concave surface 122 on one side of the rotor support 12 that fits against the rotor frame 11. This concave surface 122 forms a hot air retention space. This not only avoids airflow blockage caused by hot air directly impacting the flat surface, but also allows the hot air to be distributed more evenly and flow smoothly out of the hot air channel 121, thereby significantly improving heat dissipation efficiency, ensuring smooth airflow, and enhancing the stability and dehumidification effect of the equipment.
[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 2The rotating frame 11 has a support portion 113 that converges towards the center of the first receiving cavity 111, and the rotating support 12 is fixed to the support portion 113. Specifically, the support portion 113 provides a stable support for the moisture-absorbing turntable 40, ensuring that it will not shift or tip over during high-speed rotation. Moreover, the center of the support portion 113 is the axis of rotation of the moisture-absorbing turntable 40, and the moisture-absorbing turntable 40 is engaged with the center of the support portion 113 and rotates thereon. In addition, the rotating support 12 is fixed to the support portion 113 and fits tightly with the moisture-absorbing turntable 40.
[0041] Furthermore, a temperature control sensor 123 is provided on the concave surface 122 of the rotor support 12. Specifically, the temperature control sensor 123 is used to detect the temperature of the airflow passing through the hot air channel 121 and is electrically connected to the main control board, effectively preventing damage to the dehumidifier caused by prolonged local high temperature and extending the service life of the dehumidifier.
[0042] In addition, this utility model also provides a rotary dehumidifier including a body 100 and the aforementioned rotary housing 10 structure. The front of the rotary housing 10 is provided with a heating device 30 and a fan assembly 20 in sequence, and the back of the rotary housing 10 is provided with a condensing device 50. The body 100 is provided with an air inlet slot 110 on one side of the condensing device 50, and a water tank is provided below the body 100. A drainage channel 60 connected to the water tank 70 is provided below the condensing device 50.
[0043] Furthermore, it also includes a motor 80, the output shaft of which is connected to a first gear (not shown), and a second gear (not shown) is correspondingly provided on the outer circumference of the moisture-absorbing wheel 40. The first gear and the second gear are meshed together. The gear transmission ensures that the moisture-absorbing wheel 40 rotates smoothly. Furthermore, each part of the moisture-absorbing wheel 40 contacts the heating outlet 32 of the heating device 30 in turn, ensuring uniform wear of each part of the moisture-absorbing wheel 40.
[0044] Furthermore, the rotating frame 11 is also provided with a second receiving cavity 114, and the motor 80 is fixed in the second receiving cavity 114. The second receiving cavity 114 is connected to the first receiving cavity 111. That is, the second receiving cavity 114 is provided around the first receiving cavity 111, and the motor 80 is fixed in the second receiving cavity 114 to drive the moisture-absorbing rotating wheel 40 in the first receiving cavity 111 to rotate smoothly.
[0045] The working process of this rotary dehumidifier is as follows: the fan assembly 20 is located inside the body 100 on the side away from the air inlet slot 110. Airflow is first drawn in by the fan assembly 20 through the air inlet slot 110 on one side of the body 100. Subsequently, the air undergoes preliminary cooling treatment by the condenser 50, causing water vapor in the air to condense into water droplets, which then flow into the water tank 70 below through the drain channel 60. The air treated by the condenser 50 becomes drier and cooler.
[0046] Subsequently, the cooled gas is heated by the heating device 30, and the heated gas is further dehumidified by the desiccant disc 40. The dried gas flows out from the hot air channel 121 of the rotor support 12, and finally, the treated airflow is blown out from the exhaust area of the unit 100 and returns to the room, completing the entire dehumidification cycle. The hot air retention space formed by the concave surface 122 on the rotor support 12 ensures that the hot air can be evenly distributed and flow smoothly out of the hot air channel 121, avoiding the airflow blockage problem existing in traditional designs, and significantly improving heat dissipation efficiency and equipment stability.
[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
