Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically to a non-condensate evaporative air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] An air conditioner, also known as an air conditioner, is a device that uses artificial means to partially or completely regulate the temperature, humidity, airflow, and cleanliness of air in a closed space, so that the air parameters of the target environment meet the requirements. It generally includes cold and heat source equipment, cold and heat medium system, terminal devices, and other auxiliary equipment, mainly including water pumps, fans, and pipeline systems.

[0003] When existing air conditioners are cooling, the evaporator heats up and condensation forms on its surface. This condensation is usually collected in a drain pan and discharged directly outdoors through a pipe connected to the drain pan. However, as the air conditioner runs continuously, condensation continues to form. The continuous discharge of large amounts of condensation outdoors can cause water accumulation and dampness on outdoor surfaces. This is especially problematic for residents on higher floors, where the condensation dripping directly outdoors can wet the windows and exterior walls of lower-floor residents, affecting their living conditions. Depending on the installation location, the discharged condensation may also soak clothes drying on lower floors. In short, direct discharge of condensation not only impacts the outdoor environment but also affects the normal living conditions of other residents.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure to propose a non-condensate evaporative air conditioner. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a non-condensate evaporative air conditioner to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a condensate-free evaporative air conditioner, comprising a casing, a partition fixedly connected to the middle of the inner surface of the casing, a collection box fixedly connected to the left side of the inner surface of the casing below the partition, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the left side of the surface of the collection box, and the left end of the discharge pipe extending through the casing to the outdoors, a first one-way valve pipe fixedly connected downward through the middle of the surface of the partition, the partition being recessed towards the opening of the first one-way valve pipe, and the end of the first one-way valve pipe communicating with the collection box, a compressor fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the inner surface of the casing, and a second one-way valve pipe fixedly connected to the exhaust port of the compressor, and the upper end of the second one-way valve pipe communicating with the bottom of the collection box.

[0007] Preferably, a condenser is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner surface of the chassis, and the condenser is connected to the compressor via an air conditioning duct system.

[0008] Preferably, an evaporator is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the partition, and the evaporator is also connected to the condenser and compressor using an air conditioning piping system.

[0009] Preferably, the front surface of the chassis has an opening, and a bracket is fixedly connected to the front inner surface of the chassis behind the opening.

[0010] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the center of the surface of the bracket, and a fan is fixedly connected to the front end of the output shaft of the motor.

[0011] Preferably, a heat exhaust channel is provided on the rear side of the chassis surface, and the heat exhaust channel is only connected to the space inside the chassis located below the partition, and the heat exhaust channel extends to the outdoors.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention, through the arrangement of a partition, collection box, discharge pipe, first one-way valve pipe, compressor, and second one-way valve pipe, allows condensation to form on the heated surface of the evaporator during cooling. The condensate collects downwards and drips onto the partition. Because the partition is recessed towards the inlet of the first one-way valve pipe, the condensate also collects towards the first one-way valve pipe. After passing through the first one-way valve pipe, the condensate flows into the collection box. During operation, the compressor's heat is discharged through the second one-way valve pipe, and hot air also enters the collection box. This hot air heats the condensate, converting it into water vapor, which is then discharged outdoors through the discharge pipe. This effectively prevents condensate from being directly discharged outdoors, thus avoiding water accumulation and pollution. It also prevents condensate from dripping down onto the windowsills or clothes drying on lower floors when using the air conditioner, providing an effective and reasonable way to discharge condensate.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a non-condensing evaporative air conditioner includes a casing 1. A partition 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner surface of the casing 1. A collection box 3 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner surface of the casing 1 below the partition 2. A discharge pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the left side of the surface of the collection box 3, and the left end of the discharge pipe 4 extends through the casing 1 to the outside. A first one-way valve pipe 5 is fixedly connected downward through the middle of the surface of the partition 2, and the partition 2 is recessed towards the opening of the first one-way valve pipe 5. The end of the first one-way valve pipe 5 is connected to the collection box 3. A compressor 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the inner surface of the casing 1, and a second one-way valve pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the exhaust port of the compressor 6. The upper end of the second one-way valve pipe 7 is connected to the bottom of the collection box 3.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, during refrigeration, condensate is generated on the heated surface of the evaporator 9 and flows downward, dripping onto the baffle 2. Since the baffle 2 is recessed towards the inlet of the first one-way valve pipe 5, the condensate can also flow towards the first one-way valve pipe 5. After passing through the first one-way valve pipe 5, the condensate will flow into the collection box 3. When the air conditioner is working, the heat of the compressor 6 will be discharged through the second one-way valve pipe 7, and the high-temperature hot air will also enter the collection box 3. The hot air heats the condensate, thereby using the heat discharged by the compressor 6 to convert the condensate into water vapor, which is finally discharged outdoors through the discharge pipe 4.

[0021] Furthermore, a condenser 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner surface of the casing 1, and the condenser 8 is connected to the compressor 6 via an air conditioning duct system.

[0022] An evaporator 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the partition 2, and the evaporator 9 is also connected to the condenser 8 and the compressor 6 by an air conditioning duct system.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the condenser 8, evaporator 9 and compressor 6 are connected by an air conditioning duct system to form a circulation, thereby forming a complete air conditioning system and integrating it into a single casing 1. The more compact structural design avoids the need for separate indoor and outdoor units, which would occupy extra indoor and outdoor space.

[0024] Furthermore, a through-hole 10 is provided on the front side of the surface of the chassis 1, and a bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the front side of the inner surface of the chassis 1 behind the through-hole 10.

[0025] A motor 12 is fixedly connected to the center of the surface of the bracket 11, and a fan 13 is fixedly connected to the front end of the output shaft of the motor 12.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor 12 drives the fan 13 to rotate, which can blow out the cold air from the evaporator 9, thereby completing the indoor cooling.

[0027] Furthermore, a heat exhaust channel 14 is provided on the rear side of the surface of the chassis 1, and the heat exhaust channel 14 is only connected to the space inside the chassis 1 located below the partition 2, and the heat exhaust channel 14 extends to the outdoors.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the outdoor unit of a general air conditioner is placed directly outdoors, so that the heat of the condenser 8 can be directly discharged to the outdoors. After integration, the integrated air conditioner can also use the heat discharge channel 14 to discharge heat to the outdoors, ensuring the normal operation of the air conditioner.

[0029] Working Principle: When using this condensate-free evaporative air conditioner, the air conditioner first starts up, and the refrigerant circulates between the compressor 6, condenser 8, and evaporator 9 through the air conditioning piping system. The motor 12 drives the fan 13 to rotate, blowing the cold air generated by the evaporator 9 into the room. During the circulation, the heat exchanged by the condenser 8 can be discharged to the outside through the heat discharge channel 14, thus ensuring the normal operation of the air conditioner. When cooling, condensate is generated on the heated surface of the evaporator 9 and flows downward, dripping onto the baffle 2. Since the baffle 2 is recessed towards the inlet of the first one-way valve pipe 5, the condensate can also converge at the first one-way valve pipe 5. After passing through the first one-way valve pipe 5, the condensate flows into the collection box 3. When the air conditioner is working, the heat from the compressor 6 is discharged through the second one-way valve pipe 7, and the high-temperature hot air also enters the collection box 3. The hot air heats the condensate, thus using the heat discharged by the compressor 6 to convert the condensate into water vapor, which is finally discharged outdoors through the discharge pipe 4. This is the working principle of the condensate-free evaporative air conditioner.
