TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to refrigeration system technical field especially relates to a defrosting refrigeration system and freezer thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Traditional direct-cooling freezers will have frost on the inner wall of the inner tank after long-term use, which not only affects the refrigeration effect, but also increases the user's use burden, and needs to be defrosted regularly by manual defrosting. In order to solve this problem, the defrosting is usually carried out by connecting the evaporator to the electric heating system. However, this defrosting method has obvious defects: during defrosting, the operation of the electric heater will cause the temperature in the box to rise, affecting the preservation effect of the food; at the same time, the electric heater is sealed in the box, and after being turned on, the local temperature rises rapidly, and the sponge, foam and plastic parts around it will be heated rapidly, which may cause deformation and even fire safety hazards. In addition, the electric heater is in direct contact with the evaporator, and if the refrigerant (such as R600A) in the evaporator leaks, it may also cause explosion risk when it comes into contact with the high-temperature heater in a closed space.
[0003] In order to overcome the above problems, some improvement schemes are proposed in the prior art. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN209541255U provides a frost-free refrigeration system for a refrigerator, which connects multiple evaporators and defrosting capillary tubes in parallel through an electromagnetic valve group, and adds an electromagnetic valve branch between the compressor and the condenser. By controlling the electromagnetic valve group, the evaporator is defrosted in turn and the pressure is maintained during shutdown, so as to replace the traditional electric heater and avoid the risk of electrical safety. However, the electromagnetic valve group of this patent is complex to set, which increases the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty of the system, and may have problems such as complex control logic, high failure rate, etc. in actual application.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a frost-free refrigeration system with simple structure, convenient control and safety and reliability to solve the above problems existing in the prior art. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

Figure 2 As shown, in cooling mode, the normally closed solenoid valve 6 is closed. The working process of cooling mode includes: compressor 1 outputs gaseous refrigerant, which enters the first end of the three-way pipe and then enters the condenser assembly through the second end of the three-way pipe for condensation. The resulting liquid refrigerant enters the throttling assembly and then enters the first evaporator 4 and the second evaporator 5 through the first capillary tube 2 and the second capillary tube 3, respectively. The liquid refrigerant absorbs heat and vaporizes in the first evaporator 4 and the second evaporator 5.

Figure 3As shown, in the defrosting mode, the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 is opened, and the working process of the defrosting mode includes: the compressor 1 outputs gaseous refrigerant, the gaseous refrigerant enters the first end of the three-way pipe, and the resistance of the throttling assembly causes the gaseous refrigerant to preferentially enter the second evaporator 5 through the third end of the three-way pipe, and the gaseous refrigerant melts the frost generated by the second evaporator 5 and then enters the compressor 1 for circulation.
[0049] In the above schematic embodiment, the defrosting and refrigeration control method is applied to a specific defrosting and refrigeration system, and the switching between the refrigeration and defrosting modes can be accurately controlled. In the refrigeration mode, the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 is closed, the refrigerant circulates along a predetermined path, the refrigeration efficiency is ensured, the temperature in the refrigerator is stable, and a good preservation environment is maintained; in the defrosting mode, the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 is opened, the resistance of the throttling assembly is used to make the gaseous refrigerant preferentially enter the second evaporator 5, effectively melt the frost, and avoid the influence of frost on the refrigeration effect, and at the same time, there is no need for electric heating defrosting, which avoids the problems of food preservation being affected, safety hazards, etc. caused by electric heating, and improves the stability, safety and practicality of the refrigerator operation.
[0050] In some embodiments, the method of controlling the switching between the refrigeration mode and the defrosting mode includes: entering the refrigeration mode when the refrigeration system is powered on; and switching to the defrosting mode when the continuous working time of the refrigeration system reaches a preset time threshold, or the temperature of the second evaporator 5 decreases to a preset temperature threshold. By setting the preset thresholds of the continuous working time of the refrigeration system and the temperature of the second evaporator 5, the switching between the refrigeration mode and the defrosting mode is automatically and reasonably realized, the refrigeration system is defrosted in time, the problems of excessive refrigeration or frost affecting are avoided, and the overall operation efficiency and refrigeration effect of the system are improved.
[0051] In some embodiments, when the refrigeration mode or the defrosting mode is switched, as shown, Figure 1 the temperature controller 7 is used for automatic switching; after the refrigeration system is powered on, the temperature controller 7 controls the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 to be closed, and enters the refrigeration mode; when the temperature controller 7 monitors that the continuous working time of the refrigeration system reaches a preset time threshold, or the temperature of the second evaporator 5 decreases to a preset temperature threshold, the temperature controller 7 controls the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 to be opened, and enters the defrosting mode. Specifically, the temperature controller 7 connects the first relay 701 and disconnects the second relay 702 to control the entry into the refrigeration mode; the temperature controller 7 connects the first relay 701 and the second relay 702 to control the entry into the defrosting mode. By using the temperature controller 7 to automatically control the opening and closing of the normally closed electromagnetic valve 6 according to the preset thresholds of the continuous working time of the refrigeration system and the temperature of the second evaporator 5, the automatic and accurate control of the switching between the modes is realized, the cost of manual intervention is reduced, and the intelligent degree and operation stability of the refrigeration system are improved.

A defrosting water evaporation dish is arranged between the outlet end of the compressor and the first end of the three-way pipe. The defrosting water evaporation dish is used to absorb part of the heat of the gaseous refrigerant of the compressor to evaporate the defrosting water. The inlet end of the compressor is connected with a liquid storage tank for storing refrigerant. The outlet end of the first evaporator and the outlet end of the second evaporator are connected with the inlet end of the liquid storage tank. A drying filter is arranged between the outlet end of the condensing assembly and the inlet end of the throttling assembly. The condensing assembly comprises an outer condenser and an inner condenser. The inlet end of the outer condenser is connected with the third end of the three-way pipe. The outer condenser is installed in the engine room of the refrigerator. The inlet end of the inner condenser is connected with the outlet end of the outer condenser. The outer condenser is installed between the outer condenser and the inner condenser. The outlet end of the defrosting pipe is connected with the inlet end of the inner condenser. The defrosting refrigeration system comprises a box, an inner container and a box shell arranged around the box, a foaming layer arranged between the inner container and the box shell, a first evaporator installed between the inner container and the foaming layer outside the inner container, and a second evaporator installed in the box inside the inner container or installed between the inner container and the foaming layer outside the inner container above the first evaporator near the door of the refrigerator.
