Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of evaporation curtains for air coolers, specifically an evaporation curtain for an air cooler. Background Technology
[0002] An evaporative air cooler, also known as a water-cooled air conditioner, is an evaporative cooling and ventilation unit that integrates cooling, ventilation, dust prevention, and deodorization. Its principle is based on the fact that water absorbs heat energy during evaporation, absorbing the sensible heat of the air, thereby lowering the air temperature. This process requires the use of an evaporation curtain, but evaporation curtains are generally made of a single piece, are quite thick, and have deep and complex pores, making them inconvenient to clean, and there is a possibility that deeper areas may not be cleaned. Therefore, we have designed an evaporation curtain for evaporative air coolers that is easy to clean. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides an evaporation curtain for an air cooler to address the deficiencies in the prior art.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0005] An evaporation curtain for an air cooler includes an air cooler body. An air inlet is located on one side of the air cooler body. A back panel is detachably installed inside the air inlet. The back panel has a perforated mesh. An evaporation curtain is installed on the side of the back panel opposite to the air cooler body. The air cooler body has water inlets for supplying water to the evaporation curtains. The evaporation curtains are thin and several in number. A water distribution box and a perforated plate are fixedly installed on the back panel. U-shaped plates are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the water distribution box and the perforated plate. Several evaporation curtains are installed inside the U-shaped plates. Several through holes are opened on the water distribution box. Sealing plugs are sealed and fitted into each through hole. Support feet are fixedly installed at both ends of the sealing plugs. The support feet contact the top of the corresponding evaporation curtains. The support feet are elastically connected to the water distribution box by a first spring.
[0006] As described above, in the evaporation curtain of a type of air cooler, a plug is fixedly installed at the bottom of the back plate, a slot is opened in the air inlet of the air cooler body, the plug is inserted and connected to the slot, a sliding hole is opened on the back plate, a plug rod is slidably installed in the sliding hole, the plug rod is elastically connected to the back plate by a second spring, and a socket is opened on the air cooler body to engage with the plug rod.
[0007] As described above, in the evaporation curtain of a type of air cooler, a lever is fixedly installed on the insertion rod.
[0008] In the evaporation curtain of the air cooler described above, both the sealing plug and the through hole are inverted trapezoidal.

Detailed Implementation
[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0016] An evaporation curtain for a type of air cooler, such as Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figure 3, the device includes a cooler body 1, which is a mature existing technology and will not be described in detail here. An air inlet is located on one side of the cooler body 1, and a back plate 2 is detachably installed inside the air inlet. The back plate 2 has a perforated mesh for external air to enter the cooler body 1. The perforated mesh is not shown in the figure. An evaporation curtain 3 is installed on the side of the back plate 2 opposite to the inside of the cooler body 1. The cooler body 1 has water inlets 11 for supplying water to the evaporation curtain 3. Existing cooler bodies 1 generally have a water storage chamber at the top for supplying water to the evaporation curtain 3. The water inlets 11 connect to the water storage chamber. The evaporation curtain 3 is a thin evaporation curtain, and several are provided. In this embodiment, there are three evaporation curtains 3. The back plate 2... A water distribution box 4 and a mesh plate 5 are fixedly installed. U-shaped plates 6 are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the water distribution box 4 and the mesh plate 5, with the U-shaped plates 6 facing the same direction. Several evaporation curtains 3 are installed inside the U-shaped plates 6, with the upper and lower ends of the evaporation curtains 3 slidingly installed in the corresponding U-shaped plates 6. Several through holes 7 are opened on the water distribution box 4, and sealing plugs 8 are respectively sealed and fitted inside the through holes 7. Support feet 9 are fixedly installed at both ends of the sealing plugs 8. The support feet 9 are in contact with the top of the corresponding evaporation curtains 3. The support feet 9 and the water distribution box 4 are elastically connected by a first spring 10. The first spring 10 is fitted on the support feet 9, with one end of the first spring 10 fixedly connected to the support feet 9 and the other end fixedly connected to the bottom of the water distribution box 4. This utility model has a simple structure and ingenious design. By setting the entire evaporation curtain 3 as several thin evaporation curtains, it is easier to clean the deep pores of the evaporation curtain 3. At the same time, when the evaporation curtain 3 on the air cooler body 1 is removed, it does not affect the normal use of the other evaporation curtains 3. The number of evaporation curtains 3 used can also be adjusted according to needs. When the evaporation curtain is removed, the corresponding through hole 7 can also be automatically sealed to ensure that water flows to the evaporation curtain 3. It can meet practical needs and is suitable for promotion. When using this device, water in the air cooler body 1 flows into the water distribution box 4 through the water inlet 11, then flows through the through hole 7 on the water distribution box 4 to the evaporation curtain 3 below, and then flows out from the bottom of the evaporation curtain 3, passes through the mesh plate 5 and flows back into the air cooler body 1. When air passes through the air inlet and then through the evaporation curtain 3, the circulating water on the evaporation curtain 3 comes into direct contact with the fresh air, generating heat exchange and filtering out dust in the air. When the evaporation curtain 3 needs to be cleaned after a period of use, the back plate 2 and the evaporation curtain 3 are removed together. The evaporation curtain 3 that needs to be cleaned is pulled out from the U-shaped plate 6. After being pulled out, the sealing plug 8 can seal the corresponding through hole 7 under the action of the first spring 10. After removal, the back plate 2 can be reinstalled, or it can be reinstalled after cleaning. If it is necessary to adjust the number of evaporation curtains 3 to change the cooling and humidity, the unwanted evaporation curtains 3 can be removed and the back plate 2 can be reinstalled.
[0017] Specifically, as shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the bottom of the back plate 2 is fixedly installed with a plug 20, and a slot 21 is opened in the air inlet of the air cooler body 1. The plug 20 is inserted and connected to the slot 21. A sliding hole 22 is opened on the back plate 2, and a plug rod 23 is slidably installed in the sliding hole 22. The plug rod 23 is elastically connected to the back plate 2 through a second spring 24. The second spring 24 is fitted on the plug rod 23. One end of the second spring 24 is fixedly connected to the plug rod 23, and the other end of the second spring 24 is fixedly connected to the back plate 2. An insertion hole 25 is opened on the air cooler body 1 to be inserted and connected to the plug rod 23. When removing the back panel 2 from the air inlet, move the insert rod 23 downwards until it exits the insertion hole 25, then tilt the back panel 2 and move it until the insert block 20 is completely removed from the slot 21, at which point the back panel 2 can be removed. When installing the back panel 2, first insert the insert block 20 into the slot 21, then pull the insert rod 23 downwards. The second spring 24 is compressed. When the back panel 2 is installed in the air inlet and the insert rod 23 is aligned with the insertion hole 25, the insert rod 23 can be inserted into the insertion hole 25 under the action of the second spring 24, and the back panel 2 is confined within the air inlet. This achieves the detachable installation of the back panel 2.
[0018] Specifically, as shown in the figure, a lever 30 is fixedly installed on the insertion rod 23 in this embodiment. Moving the insertion rod 23 is more convenient via the lever 30.
[0019] Furthermore, as shown in the figure, in this embodiment, both the sealing plug 8 and the through hole 7 are inverted trapezoidal. Because the sealing plug 8 and the through hole 7 are inverted trapezoidal, the sealing plug 8 fits more tightly against the inner wall of the through hole 7 under the pressure of water and the action of the first spring 10, resulting in better sealing.
[0020] Furthermore, as shown in the figure, the two ends of the support foot 9 in this embodiment are arc-shaped. Setting the two ends of the support foot 9 to arc-shaped makes it smoother to pull up and down the evaporation curtain 3, less prone to jamming, and more convenient to use.
[0021] Furthermore, as shown in the figure, several baffles 60 are hinged to the water distribution box 4 in this embodiment. The baffles 60 can restrict the movement of the evaporation curtain 3 on the corresponding side. Under the action of gravity, the baffles 60 are in a vertical state and block the evaporation curtain 3, thereby preventing the evaporation curtain 3 from moving out of the U-shaped plate 6. When it is necessary to remove the evaporation curtain 3, the baffles 60 can be rotated to the upper side to no longer block the evaporation curtain 3.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
