Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
[0029] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides an integrated air conditioner, which includes a housing 100, a compressor 200, a four-way reversing valve 300, an indoor heat exchange system 400, and an outdoor heat exchange system 500. The compressor 200 is located in the middle of the housing 100. The four-way reversing valve 300 has four valve ports: C, D, E, and S. Valve port C is connected to the exhaust port of the compressor 200, and valve port E is connected to the return port of the compressor. The indoor heat exchange system 400 is connected to valve port D, and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 is connected to both valve port S and the indoor heat exchange system 400. The outdoor heat exchange system 500 and the indoor heat exchange system 400 are symmetrically arranged in the housing 100 about the compressor 200.
[0030] The four-way reversing valve 300 can switch the connection relationship between the four valve ports C, D, E, and S according to the cooling or heating needs. When the integrated air conditioner is needed for cooling, valve port C is connected to valve port S, and valve port D is connected to valve port E. That is, the refrigerant enters the outdoor heat exchange system 500 from the exhaust port of compressor 200, then enters the indoor heat exchange system 400 from the outdoor heat exchange system 500, and then enters the compressor 200 from the indoor heat exchange system 400. When the integrated air conditioner is needed for heating, valve port C is connected to valve port D, and valve port E is connected to valve port S. The refrigerant enters the indoor heat exchange system 400 from the exhaust port of compressor 200, then enters the outdoor heat exchange system 500 from the indoor heat exchange system 400, and finally returns to compressor 200 from the outdoor heat exchange system 500.
[0031] Both the indoor heat exchange system 400 and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 include at least one heat exchanger.
[0032] The shell 100 includes an inner cavity and an outer cavity, with a partition between the inner cavity and the outer cavity. The indoor heat exchange system 400 is disposed in the inner cavity, and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 is disposed in the outer cavity.
[0033] It is understandable that this integrated air conditioner connects the compressor 200, the outdoor heat exchange system 500, and the indoor heat exchange system 400 via a four-way reversing valve 300. By switching the four-way reversing valve 300, the refrigerant can flow in the integrated air conditioner for both cooling and heating purposes, thus enabling the integrated air conditioner to both cool and heat. At the same time, the compressor 200 is located in the middle of the casing 100, and the indoor heat exchange system 400 and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 are symmetrically arranged about the compressor 200, so that the center of gravity of the integrated air conditioner is located in the center of the unit, which facilitates the improvement of the stability of the hoisting.
[0034] In some embodiments, the outdoor heat exchange system 500 includes a first heat exchanger 520 and a first water receiving tray 521, with the first water receiving tray 521 disposed at the bottom of the first heat exchanger 520; the indoor heat exchange system 400 includes a second heat exchanger 420 and a second water receiving tray 421, with the second water receiving tray 421 disposed at the bottom of the second heat exchanger 420.
[0035] The housing 100 may be provided with a drain hole that communicates with the first water receiving tray 521 or the second water receiving tray 421, so that the condensate in the integrated air conditioner can be discharged to the outside of the unit.
[0036] Specifically, two drain holes can be provided on the housing 100, and the two drain holes are respectively connected to the first water receiving tray 521 and the second water receiving tray 421.
[0037] In some embodiments, a drain pipe 523 is connected between the first water receiving tray 521 and the second water receiving tray 421. A water pump 524 is provided in the first water receiving tray 521. The water pump 524 is connected to one end of the drain pipe 523 and is used to discharge the condensate in the first water receiving tray 521 to the second water receiving tray 421. The outlet of the second water receiving tray 421 is connected to the drain outlet of the housing 100.
[0038] That is, only one drain hole can be provided on the housing 100 so that the condensate in the first water receiving tray 521 can be discharged by the water pump 524 to the second water receiving tray 421, and then discharged from the second water receiving tray 421 to the outside of the machine body.
[0039] In some embodiments, the bottom surface of the first water receiving tray 521 is inclined, and the bottom surface of the first water receiving tray 521 gradually rises from the side near the second water receiving tray 421 to the side away from the second water receiving tray 421. The water pump 524 is disposed on the bottom surface of the first water receiving tray 521 near the second water receiving tray 421.
[0040] It is understandable that the bottom surface of the first water receiving tray 521 is tilted so that the condensate flows to the vicinity of the water pump 524 under the action of gravity, thereby improving the discharge efficiency of the condensate in the first water receiving tray 521.
[0041] In some embodiments, a guide plate is also provided on the bottom surface of the first water receiving tray 521. The guide plate and the side wall of the first water receiving tray 521 form a first guide groove, and one end of the first guide groove points to the water pump 524.
[0042] It is understandable that the first guide channel formed by the guide plate and the side wall of the first water receiving tray 521 can guide the condensate in the first water receiving tray 521, so that the condensate can flow smoothly to the water pump 524.
[0043] In some embodiments, the bottom of the second water receiving tray 421 is provided with a plurality of second guide channels, one end of each of the second guide channels pointing to the water outlet.
[0044] It is understandable that by setting a second guide channel on the second water receiving pan 421, the condensate entering the second water receiving pan 421 and the condensate in the second water receiving pan 421 can flow smoothly out of the second water receiving pan 421, thus avoiding the accumulation of condensate.
[0045] In some embodiments, the bottom surface of the second guide channel is inclined, and the bottom surface of the second guide channel gradually rises from the end near the outlet to the end away from the outlet.
[0046] That is, by tilting the bottom surface of the second guide channel, the condensate can flow out of the second water receiving tray 421 quickly by means of gravity, thus avoiding the accumulation of condensate.
[0047] In some embodiments, the indoor heat exchange system 400 further includes a second fan 410 disposed on one side of the second heat exchanger 420, and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 further includes a first fan 510 disposed on one side of the first heat exchanger 520. The first fan 510 and the second fan 410 are symmetrically arranged about the compressor 200.
[0048] The first fan 510 is used to draw in airflow and make it flow through the first heat exchanger 520, and the second fan 410 is used to draw in airflow and make it flow through the second heat exchanger 420.
[0049] It is understandable that the blades of the first fan 510 and the second fan 410 are symmetrically arranged about the compressor 200 in order to keep the center of gravity of the air conditioner as close as possible to the center of the unit, so as to improve the stability of the hoisting.
[0050] In some embodiments, the housing 100 is a circular housing 100, and the second fan 410, the second heat exchanger 420, the first heat exchanger 520 and the first fan 510 are arranged sequentially around the compressor 200.
[0051] In some embodiments, the housing 100 is a square housing 100, and the indoor heat exchange system 400 and the outdoor heat exchange system 500 are located on both sides of the compressor 200, respectively.
[0052] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made based on the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings under the application concept of the present utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
