Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of water collection trays for evaporative air coolers, specifically a baffle plate for a water collection tray of an evaporative air cooler. Background Technology

[0002] Evaporative air coolers, as a common ventilation and cooling device, are widely used in industrial plants, commercial spaces, and homes. During operation, the evaporative cooling pads exchange heat with the air, causing moisture in the air to condense into water droplets on the pad surface. These droplets need to be collected and drained through a condensate tray to ensure the normal operation of the air cooler. The condensate tray baffle, as a key component of the water collection system, plays a crucial role in effectively collecting water and preventing overflow. However, existing condensate tray baffles for evaporative air coolers have a series of problems in practical applications.

[0003] Traditional installation methods for the water collection tray baffles of evaporative air coolers are quite complex, typically requiring various tools for bolt tightening or welding. For example, in some large industrial evaporative air coolers, the connection between the water collection tray and the cooler body is cumbersomely designed, requiring installers to spend considerable time and effort on positioning and securing it. This not only increases the difficulty of installation but also extends the installation cycle. Furthermore, this complex installation method demands a high level of expertise from the installers; improper installation can lead to an unstable connection between the water collection tray and the cooler body, affecting the normal operation of the cooler. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a water baffle plate for a evaporative air cooler to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a water collection tray baffle for an air cooler, comprising an air cooler body, wherein an installation mechanism is provided near the bottom of the air cooler body, and an antifreeze mechanism is provided at the bottom of the installation mechanism;

[0006] The installation mechanism includes a sliding sleeve that is slidably connected to the surface of the air cooler body near the bottom. A water collection tray is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and a drain pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the water collection tray. A fixing frame is fixedly connected to the left side of the air cooler body near the bottom. A first guide rod is provided on the left side of the fixing frame. A pull plate is fixedly connected to the left end of the first guide rod, and a sliding plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the first guide rod.

A spring is sleeved on the surface of the second guide rod between the left side of the inner wall of the fixing frame and the sliding plate. An L-shaped block is fixedly connected at equal intervals at the bottom of the sliding plate. A fixing groove corresponding to the other end of the L-shaped block is opened on the left side of the sliding sleeve.

[0007] Preferably, the left side of the fixing frame has a hole that matches the first guide rod, and the surface of the first guide rod passes through and slides left and right within the hole.

[0008] Preferably, the left side of the skateboard has a hole that matches the second guide rod, and the skateboard slides left and right through the hole to be connected to the surface of the second guide rod. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the fixed frame, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the left side of the skateboard.

[0009] Preferably, the other end of the L-block is inserted into the fixing groove. There are two sets of the fixing frame, the first guide rod, the pull plate, the slide plate, the second guide rod, the spring, the L-block and the fixing groove, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the air cooler body near the bottom.

[0010] Preferably, the antifreeze mechanism includes a fixed cover, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve. Vent holes are provided on the left and right sides of the fixed cover near the top. A temperature control device is fixedly connected to the front of the fixed cover near the bottom.

[0012] Preferably, the electric heating wire is located between the bottom of the water collection tray and the bottom of the inner wall of the fixing cover.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a baffle plate for a water collection tray of an evaporative cooler, which has the following advantages:

[0014] The evaporative air cooler uses a water collection tray baffle plate. A pull plate drives the first guide rod and slide plate to move, allowing the L-block at the bottom of the slide plate to engage with the fixing groove on the sliding sleeve, thus quickly fixing the water collection tray to the evaporative air cooler body. This design is simple to operate, requires no complicated tools, and saves installation time. A spring is sleeved on the second guide rod, and its elasticity ensures that the L-block is always tightly inserted into the fixing groove, ensuring that the water collection tray will not loosen due to vibration or other reasons during the operation of the evaporative air cooler, thus ensuring the stability of the connection. At the same time, two sets of symmetrically arranged related components further enhance the stability of the overall structure.

[0015] This air cooler uses a water collection tray with a baffle plate. A temperature sensor in the anti-freeze mechanism monitors the temperature at the bottom of the water collection tray in real time. When the temperature approaches freezing, the sensor transmits a signal to the temperature control device. Based on a set temperature threshold, the temperature control device precisely controls the activation and deactivation of the electric heating element, ensuring the water in the collection tray remains at a suitable temperature and effectively preventing freezing.

[0025] This utility model provides the following technical solution: Example

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a water collection tray 22 baffle for a cold air blower, including a cold air blower body 1, an installation mechanism 2 is provided near the bottom of the cold air blower body 1, and an antifreeze mechanism 3 is provided at the bottom of the installation mechanism 2;

[0027] The mounting mechanism 2 includes a sliding sleeve 21, which is slidably connected to the surface of the air cooler body 1 near the bottom. A water collection tray 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 21, and a drain pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the water collection tray 22. A fixing frame 24 is fixedly connected to the left side of the air cooler body 1 near the bottom. A first guide rod 25 is provided on the left side of the fixing frame 24. A pull plate 26 is fixedly connected to the left end of the first guide rod 25. A sliding plate 27 is fixedly connected to the other end of the first guide rod 25. A second guide rod 28 is fixedly connected at equal intervals on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the fixing frame 24. A spring 29 is sleeved between the surface of the second guide rod 28 and the left side of the inner wall of the fixing frame 24 and the sliding plate 27. An L-block 211 is fixedly connected at equal intervals at the bottom of the sliding plate 27. A fixing groove 212 corresponding to the other end of the L-block 211 is opened on the left side of the sliding sleeve 21.

[0028] The left side of the fixed frame 24 has a hole that matches the first guide rod 25, and the surface of the first guide rod 25 is penetrated and slidably connected to the hole.

[0029] The left side of the slide plate 27 has a hole that matches the second guide rod 28, and the slide plate 27 is slidably connected to the surface of the second guide rod 28 through the hole. One end of the spring 29 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the fixed frame 24, and the other end of the spring 29 is fixedly connected to the left side of the slide plate 27.

[0030] The other end of L-block 211 is inserted into the fixing groove 212. There are two sets of fixing frame 24, first guide rod 25, pull plate 26, slide plate 27, second guide rod 28, spring 29, L-block 211 and fixing groove 212, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the air cooler body 1 near the bottom. Example

[0031] Please see Figure 4-5 Furthermore, based on Example 1, an antifreeze mechanism 3 was obtained.

[0032] The antifreeze mechanism 3 includes a fixed cover 31, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 21. Vent holes 32 are provided on the left and right sides of the fixed cover 31 near the top. A temperature control device 33 is fixedly connected to the front of the fixed cover 31 near the bottom. An electric heating wire 34 is fixedly connected to the connection end of the temperature control device 33. A temperature sensor 35 is fixedly connected to the back of the inner wall of the fixed cover 31 near the bottom left side. A control panel 36 is fixedly connected to the left side of the front of the fixed cover 31.

[0033] A hole matching the drain pipe 23 is opened on the top right side of the fixed cover 31, and the drain pipe 23 passes through and slides up and down in the hole.

[0034] The electric heating wire 34 is located between the bottom of the water collection tray 22 and the bottom of the inner wall of the fixing cover 31.

[0035] In actual operation, when this device is in use, the pull plate 26 is fixedly connected to the first guide rod 25. The first guide rod 25 passes through the hole on the left side of the fixed frame 24 and can slide left and right. When the pull plate 26 is pulled, the first guide rod 25 drives the slide plate 27 to move within the fixed frame 24. The left side of the slide plate 27 has holes that match the second guide rod 28, and it slides left and right on the surface of the second guide rod 28 through these holes. The second guide rod 28 is fixed at equal intervals on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the fixed frame 24. At the same time, a spring 29 is sleeved on the second guide rod 28 between the left side of the inner wall of the fixed frame 24 and the left side of the slide plate 27. When the slide plate 27 moves, the spring 29 is compressed and stores elastic potential energy. The L-blocks 211 fixed at equal intervals at the bottom of the slide plate 27 will move closer to the fixing groove 212 on the left side of the sliding sleeve 21 as the slide plate 27 moves. When the L-blocks 211 move to the appropriate position, that is, when they are inserted into the fixing groove 212, the water collection tray 22 is initially fixed to the air cooler body 1. Since the spring 29 is always under force... In this configuration, one end of the plate is fixed to the left side of the inner wall of the fixed frame 24, and the other end is fixed to the left side of the slide plate 27. The elastic force of the spring 29 will cause the slide plate 27 to always tend to move to the right side of the inner wall of the fixed frame 24, thereby making the L block 211 tightly inserted into the fixed groove 212. This ensures that the water collection tray 22 will not loosen due to external forces such as vibration during the operation of the air cooler, thus ensuring the stability of the connection. Moreover, the fixed frame 24, the first guide rod 25, the pull plate 26, the slide plate 27, the second guide rod 28, the spring 29, the L block 211, and the fixed groove 212 are arranged in two symmetrical groups on the left and right sides of the air cooler body 1 near the bottom, which further enhances the stability and reliability of the connection between the water collection tray 22 and the air cooler body 1.

[0036] When the temperature sensor 35 detects that the temperature in the bottom area of ​​the water collection tray 22 is close to the freezing point of water, it transmits a temperature signal to the temperature control device 33 fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed cover 31. The temperature control device 33 determines whether the electric heating wire 34 needs to be activated based on a preset temperature threshold. If the temperature reaches the activation condition, the temperature control device 33 controls the electric heating wire 34 connected to it to start working. The electric heating wire 34 is located between the bottom of the water collection tray 22 and the bottom of the inner wall of the fixed cover 31. After being energized, it generates heat, directly heating the water collection tray 22. The heat is transferred to the water collection tray 22 and the water inside. The temperature rises to prevent water from freezing. The vents 32 on the left and right sides of the fixed cover 31 near the top facilitate the dissipation of heat generated by the electric heating wire 34 during operation, avoiding safety issues caused by excessive temperature. At the same time, the control panel 36 fixedly connected to the left side of the front of the fixed cover 31 allows the operator to set and operate the temperature control device 33 to adapt to different ambient temperatures and usage requirements. In addition, a hole matching the drain pipe 23 is opened on the top right side of the fixed cover 31, and the drain pipe 23 passes through and can slide up and down in the hole, which ensures that the drainage function is not affected and maintains the integrity of the internal structure of the fixed cover 31.
