Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of frequency converter equipment for waterworks, and in particular to a heat dissipation and ventilation duct and heat dissipation system for a high-voltage frequency converter. Background Technology

[0002] Variable frequency water pump units are the pump loads used by waterworks to ensure water supply. They employ high-voltage frequency converters for speed control. During the high-voltage voltage transformation process, the high-voltage frequency converter generates significant heat. This heat is typically dissipated through built-in cooling and ventilation systems. However, this heat can easily lead to excessively high temperatures in the machine room, often necessitating the installation of air conditioning or air-water cooling systems. This results in high energy consumption and poor energy efficiency, while energy conservation and economical equipment operation are essential trends for sustainable development. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to propose a high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation and ventilation duct that effectively prevents the heat drawn from the high-voltage frequency converter from dissipating into the machine room and is easy to install on site, thereby providing at least a beneficial option or creating conditions for solving one or more technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0005] A high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation and ventilation duct includes multiple pipe groups forming a complete continuous channel, detachable connectors connecting adjacent pipe groups, and a hoisting assembly. Each pipe group is an insulated pipe. The detachable connector consists of two mirror-image connecting fasteners with an F-shaped cross-section. The ends of adjacent pipe groups are respectively snapped and fixed in corresponding F-shaped grooves. Grooves and connecting holes are provided on the connecting surfaces of the two connecting fasteners. The grooves are used to install sealing gaskets, and the connecting holes cooperate with bolts to achieve detachable connection and fixation of the two connecting fasteners. After the two connecting fasteners are connected, they are sealed with glass glue. The hoisting assembly includes an upper mounting plate, a lower mounting plate, and connecting ropes. The upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate are respectively connected to the upper and lower sides of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct. The connecting ropes are connected to the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate and are used to hoist the hoisting assembly to the machine room.

[0006] More preferably, the hoisting assembly is in multiple sets, each corresponding to one of the pipe groups.

[0007] More preferably, shock-absorbing pads are provided between the upper mounting plate and the upper side of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct, and between the lower mounting plate and the lower side of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct.

[0009] More preferably, sealing and shock-absorbing rubber parts are filled at the wall penetration points of the heat dissipation and ventilation ducts.

[0010] More preferably, a removable protective net is installed at the outlet of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct.

[0011] On the other hand, this utility model also provides a high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation system, including a computer room and a high-voltage frequency converter cabinet installed in the computer room. An air inlet channel and an air outlet channel are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the computer room. The air inlet channel is set lower than the air outlet channel. An air inlet located on the lower side and an air outlet located on the top of the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet are provided. A cabinet top fan is installed on the air outlet. The high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation ventilation duct described above is connected between the cabinet top fan and the air outlet channel to send the hot air in the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet to the outside of the computer room.

[0012] More preferably, the air outlet of the high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation and ventilation duct and the air inlet of the air inlet channel are both inclined downwards, and a filter screen is installed on the air inlet channel.

[0013] More preferably, the air inlet is directly opposite the air inlet channel.

[0014] More preferably, the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet includes a transformer cabinet and a power unit cabinet, the transformer cabinet and the power unit cabinet each have independent air ducts, and a corresponding cabinet top fan is provided for each air duct.

[0015] The technical solution provided by this utility model has at least the following technical effects or advantages.

[0016] This utility model provides a high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation and ventilation duct, which is assembled from segmented pipe assemblies, facilitating processing, transportation, installation, and disassembly. It can be customized to meet specific site conditions, effectively solving the problem of high-voltage frequency converters releasing heat outdoors. Simultaneously, combined with anti-vibration sealing structures such as gaskets and silicone sealant, the overall connection is tight, preventing hot air from escaping through gaps, achieving the same effect as a one-piece duct, but significantly reducing production, transportation, and installation costs. Furthermore, multiple fixing designs ensure the duct's stability, and multiple vibration damping designs prevent noise, loosening, or deformation caused by vibration.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, making the technical solution and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0028] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will become apparent in the following description or may be learned by practice of this invention.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation and ventilation duct includes multiple pipe groups 1 forming a complete continuous channel, detachable connectors 2 connecting adjacent pipe groups 1, and a hoisting assembly 3; each pipe group 1 is an insulated pipe, and the detachable connector 2 consists of two mirror-image connecting fasteners with an F-shaped cross-section. The ends of adjacent pipe groups 1 are respectively snapped into corresponding F-shaped grooves and fixed by air nails. A groove 2-1 and a connecting hole 2-2 are respectively provided on the connecting surface of the two connecting fasteners. The groove 2-1 is used to install a seal. The connecting hole 2-2 is used in conjunction with bolts to achieve a detachable connection and fixation of the two connecting fasteners. After the two connecting fasteners are connected, glass glue is applied to the outside for further sealing. The hoisting assembly 3 includes an upper mounting plate 3-1, a lower mounting plate 3-2, and a connecting rope 3-3. The upper mounting plate 3-1 and the lower mounting plate 3-2 are respectively connected to the upper and lower sides of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct. The connecting rope 3-3 is connected to the upper mounting plate 3-1 and the lower mounting plate 3-2 and is used to hoist the hoisting assembly 3 to the machine room.

[0030] Specifically, the hoisting method can be to fix it to the ceiling using existing known expansion bolts and tie rods. Preferably, soft pads are also provided between the upper mounting plate 3-1 and the upper side of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct, and between the lower mounting plate 3-2 and the lower side of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct. The soft pads can better reduce the noise caused by vibration.

[0031] In this embodiment, the pipe assembly 1 is preferably made of stainless steel, and the outer surface of the stainless steel pipe is wrapped with heat insulation cotton to enhance the heat insulation effect and prevent heat in the heat dissipation ventilation duct from dissipating into the machine room through the side wall of the duct. Obviously, those skilled in the art can also use other known or future-featured insulated pipe structures according to different actual needs, such as forming an insulation layer or insulation cavity inside the pipe wall, etc. The material of the pipe assembly 1 can also be a lightweight, high-strength aluminum-zinc alloy, etc.

[0032] Combination Figure 3 As shown, foam adhesive 4 is also filled at the wall penetration point of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct to enhance the sealing performance and reduce vibration wear. In some embodiments, the foam adhesive 4 can be other forms of sealant that are currently known or can be realized in the future, as long as it can achieve the purpose of sealing and soft contact.

[0033] Combination Figure 4As shown, a detachable protective net 5 is also installed at the outlet of the heat dissipation and ventilation duct to prevent mosquitoes, rats and other animals from entering the duct, ensuring the smooth flow and hygiene of the duct.

[0034] Refer to Figures 3-5 As shown, a high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation system includes a computer room 6 and a high-voltage frequency converter cabinet 7 installed in the computer room 6. An air inlet channel 8 and an air outlet channel 9 are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the computer room 6. The air inlet channel 8 is positioned lower than the air outlet channel 9. The high-voltage frequency converter cabinet 7 has an air inlet 10 located on the lower side and an air outlet located on the top. A cabinet-top fan 11 is installed on the air outlet. A high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation ventilation duct, as described above, connects the cabinet-top fan 11 and the air outlet channel 9 to deliver hot air from the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet 7 to the outside of the computer room. The air outlet of the high-voltage frequency converter heat dissipation ventilation duct and the air inlet of the air inlet channel 8 are both inclined downwards. A filter screen 12 is installed on the air inlet channel 8.

[0035] To better achieve heat dissipation of the high-voltage inverter cabinet 6, in this embodiment, it is preferable that the air inlet 10 and the air inlet channel 8 are directly opposite each other, so that the cold air entering the computer room 1 can enter the high-voltage inverter cabinet 2 more smoothly.

[0036] In this embodiment, the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet 6 includes a transformer cabinet and a power unit cabinet. The transformer cabinet and the power unit cabinet each have independent air ducts, and a corresponding top fan is provided for each air duct. By setting independent air ducts, hot air exchange between the two can be avoided, thereby ensuring the air-cooling effect of the transformer cabinet and the power unit cabinet.

[0037] This embodiment provides a high-voltage frequency converter cooling system. The ambient temperature in the machine room 6 and the temperature inside the high-voltage frequency converter cabinet 7 are both cooled by introducing outdoor air. This is a non-sealed cooling system that does not rely on air conditioning or air-water cooling devices, does not increase the indoor temperature, and ensures the ambient temperature is maintained below 40℃. This invention is suitable for relatively clean environments, meets the operational requirements of waterworks variable frequency pump units, has low cost, high reliability, good heat dissipation, and better energy-saving performance. Simultaneously, by installing a filter screen 12 on the air inlet duct 8 and a protective net 5 on the air outlet duct, it can prevent insects such as mosquitoes and rats from entering and filter dust, ensuring the air quality in the machine room 6.

Simultaneously, combined with anti-vibration sealing structures such as gaskets and silicone sealant, the overall connection is tight, preventing hot air from escaping through gaps, achieving the same effect as a one-piece duct, but significantly reducing production, transportation, and installation costs. Furthermore, multiple fixing designs ensure the duct's stability, and multiple vibration damping designs prevent noise, loosening, or deformation caused by vibration.
