Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of viewing sheds, and more specifically, to a temperature-controlled viewing shed. Background Technology

[0002] Viewing pavilions are typically constructed using glass and frames to allow visitors to enjoy sunlight and connect with nature. They are popular among those who appreciate both nature and style. Most existing viewing pavilions are fully transparent, allowing sunlight to reach from multiple angles. To enhance the user experience, air conditioning is commonly installed inside to regulate the temperature.

[0003] Currently, the air conditioners used in the observation decks are mostly air-cooled, with a cooling air temperature of 8-10℃. However, the most comfortable cooling air temperature for the human body in summer is around 24℃. Therefore, the cooling air from air-cooled air conditioners is less comfortable for the human body. In addition, the longer the air-cooled air conditioner is run, the drier the indoor air becomes, and people who stay in this environment for a long time are more likely to suffer from air conditioning sickness. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a temperature-controlled viewing shed that can provide cool air with suitable temperature and humidity, thereby improving the user experience.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a temperature-controlled viewing shed, which includes a frame and a water-cooled air conditioner installed on the top surface of the frame. The water-cooled air conditioner includes a housing and a compressor, a water condenser, and an evaporator disposed inside the housing. The water condenser is connected to an inlet pipe and a drain pipe, respectively. The other end of the inlet pipe is connected to a cold water source located outside the housing, and the other end of the drain pipe extends outside the shed.

[0006] In the above implementation process, an integrated water-cooled air conditioner is combined with a viewing pavilion. Utilizing the characteristics of water-cooled air conditioning, people inside the pavilion feel comfortable, experiencing a spring-like atmosphere year-round and feeling the gentle breeze of nature. Water-cooled air conditioning uses water instead of air cooling, with an outlet air temperature of around 18℃, about 10℃ higher than traditional air-cooled systems. This prevents people from feeling harshly cold, providing a comfortable spring or autumn breeze. Simultaneously, the high temperature of the water-cooled air conditioner's condenser results in less condensation, preventing excessive dehumidification and achieving a relative balance between indoor temperature and humidity.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the portion of the inlet pipe and / or the outlet pipe extending out of the housing is built into the frame.

[0008] In the above implementation process, the water inlet pipe and / or drain pipe are hidden to enhance aesthetics.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the frame includes beams and columns, with the inlet pipe and / or the drain pipe built into the columns.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the water condenser includes a cooling water coil for conveying cold water and a condensing coil for conveying refrigerant. The condensing coil is disposed inside the cooling water coil and forms a double-layer tube structure. The two ends of the cooling water coil are respectively connected to the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the housing is provided with a partition to divide the housing into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The compressor, the water condenser, and the evaporator are disposed in the upper cavity. The lower cavity includes a first channel and a second channel, which are respectively used to communicate indoor air with the chamber in the upper cavity where the evaporator is disposed.

[0012] In the above implementation process, a partition is used to divide the outer shell into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The compressor, which generates noise, is located in the upper cavity, thus effectively limiting and isolating the noise within the upper cavity. The first and second channels located in the lower cavity not only serve as channels for indoor air supply and return, facilitating the entry of heat-exchanged airflow into the room, but also act as noise reduction spaces to further reduce the operating noise of the air conditioner and improve the indoor user experience.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the upper cavity is divided into multiple mounting cavities along the length of the outer shell by a partition plate, and the compressor and the evaporator are respectively disposed in different mounting cavities.

[0014] In the above implementation process, dividing the upper cavity into multiple different installation cavities can isolate the noise generated by the compressor and evaporator during operation, avoid excessive noise when the three operate simultaneously, and improve the noise reduction effect of the air conditioner. Another advantage is that the multiple installation cavities, together with the design of the first and second channels, divide the interior of the outer shell into at least four cavities. The use of multiple cavities can further improve the noise reduction effect.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the water condenser has a U-shaped structure, the water condenser and the compressor are located in the same mounting cavity, and the water condenser surrounds the compressor.

[0016] The above-mentioned implementation process results in a compact structure and improved space utilization of the integrated air conditioner.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the partition is provided with an air outlet duct connecting to the first channel and a return air duct connecting to the second channel at the position corresponding to the evaporator.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the first channel and the second channel extend along the length of the housing, the first channel has a cold air outlet on the surface of the housing, the second channel has a hot air inlet on the surface of the housing, the cold air outlet is located on the side or oblique side of the housing, and the hot air inlet is located at the bottom of the housing.

[0019] In one possible implementation, a fan for promoting gas flow is also included, the fan being disposed inside the housing. Attached Figure Description
