Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chiller technology, and in particular to a water-cooled chiller. Background Technology

[0002] As disclosed in CN219868720U, a water-cooled chiller includes a chiller body with a dustproof mechanism. The dustproof mechanism includes a mounting frame, an adjusting frame, and a vertically adjustable assembly. The mounting frame contains an isolation screen, and the adjusting frame contains a dustproof screen. The adjusting assembly includes a fixedly connected stabilizing block and a drive motor, a moving brush plate, a coaxial rotating screw, and a slider. The moving brush plate is perpendicular to the stabilizing block, which is mounted on the adjusting frame. The isolation screen and the dustproof screen have a double-layer structure, providing a dustproof effect and preventing external dust from entering the chiller body. The drive motor operates, and the slider moves linearly back and forth along the axis of the rotating screw. The bristles on the moving brush plate clean the dust accumulated on the surface of the dustproof screen, thus avoiding frequent manual cleaning of the dust adhering to the screen.

[0003] However, the aforementioned patents have the problem that the chiller body is inconvenient to move. It has a certain weight and needs to be moved by connecting plates or manually, which can easily cause collisions and damage to internal parts. In addition, the filters used in the existing technology are relatively simple. After the compressor and heat exchanger have been working, scale will still be generated inside the pipes, requiring disassembly of complex equipment for cleaning, which increases maintenance costs and workload. Therefore, a water-cooled chiller is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a water-cooled chiller that solves the problems of existing chillers being inconvenient to move and the simple filtration system easily generating scale and impurities.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a water-cooled chiller, comprising a chiller body, wherein the side wall of the chiller body is provided with an outlet and an inlet for circulating chilled water, and the side wall of the chiller body is also provided with an outlet below the outlet and inlet for discharging water.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the chiller body is also provided with casters that allow the chiller body to move.

[0007] Preferably, the pulleys are provided in four sets, and the positions of the four sets of pulleys are symmetrically distributed about the midpoint axis of the bottom surface of the chiller body.

[0008] Preferably, the side wall connecting the chiller body to the output port is also provided with an inlet for water input. The inlet is connected to the chiller body through a shell that serves a purification function. The top of the shell is provided with a sealing element that serves a sealing function. The sealing element is connected to the shell through a fixing element. The shell is provided with three sets of limiting blocks that serve a limiting function. The limiting blocks have extension grooves opened along the axial direction inside. The shell is provided with an adsorption layer that adsorbs impurities in the extension grooves of the limiting blocks.

[0011] Preferably, the adsorption layer is made from coconut shells, fruit shells, or coal through high-temperature activation.

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

[0013] By injecting cooling water into the inlet, the cooling water first enters the interior of the casing. It then passes through a set of adsorption layers and two sets of filter layers to filter out impurities in the cooling water, reducing scale buildup after processing by the evaporator and compressor, and reducing the frequency of cleaning the equipment pipes.

[0020] 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.

[0021] This utility model relates to a water-cooled chiller, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown, the chiller body 1 is a chiller unit for cooling liquid. The side wall of the chiller body 1 is provided with a liquid outlet 2 and a liquid inlet 3, which serve to circulate the chilled water inside the chiller body 1 and ensure that the liquid temperature continues to decrease. On the same side of the chiller body 1 connected to the liquid outlet 2, there is also a cooling water outlet 4. Below the outlet 4, the side wall of the chiller body 1 is also provided with a cooling water inlet 5, which serves to inject cooling water. The inlet is located below the outlet.

[0022] Furthermore, to improve the portability of the equipment, the bottom of the chiller body 1 is equipped with casters 7 to facilitate the movement of the chiller body 1.

[0023] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are four sets of pulleys 7. The positions of the four sets of pulleys 7 are symmetrically distributed about the midpoint axis of the bottom surface of the chiller body 1, which improves the stability during movement and facilitates the support of the chiller body 1 for operation anywhere.

[0024] Furthermore, to reduce impurities in the cooling water and decrease scale and impurity formation, the inlet 5 is connected to the chiller body 1 via the outer casing 6. The top of the outer casing 6 is equipped with a sealing element 8, which acts as a pressure seal to reduce dust contamination of the water source. The sealing element 8 is connected to the outer casing 6 via a fixing element 9, which presses the sealing element 8 together to enhance the seal. A sealing groove is formed around the top surface of the outer casing 6. A limiting block 10 is provided on the inner wall of the outer casing 6, which restricts the position for easy disassembly. An extension groove extending along the axis of the limiting block 10 is formed inside the limiting block 10. An adsorption layer 11 is provided inside the outer casing 6 within the extension groove of the limiting block 10. The adsorption layer 11 is made from coconut shells, fruit shells, and coal activated at high temperatures, serving to adsorb a large amount of impurities in the cooling water. A filter layer 12 is also provided inside the outer casing 6 within the extension groove of the limiting block 10, serving to filter the water. A through hole 13 is also provided on the side of the outer casing 6 away from the inlet 5, serving to transport cooling water.

[0025] Among them, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the sealing element 8 includes a cover plate 801, and a sealing strip 802 is provided at the bottom of the cover plate 801 to perform the sealing function. The size and shape of the sealing strip 802 are adapted to the sealing groove opened in the outer shell 6. The fixing element 9 includes an upper fixing plate 901, one side of which is connected to the cover plate 801. A bolt 902 passes through the interior of the upper fixing plate 901. The upper fixing plate 901 has a threaded groove that matches the bolt 902. One side of the lower fixing plate 903 is connected to the outer shell 6. The lower fixing plate 903 has a threaded groove that matches the bolt 902. The distance between the upper fixing plate 901 and the lower fixing plate 903 is reduced by rotating the bolt 902.

[0026] In practical use: By injecting cooling water into the inlet 5, the cooling water first enters the interior of the outer casing 6, and then passes through a set of adsorption layers 11 and two sets of filter layers 12 to filter out impurities in the cooling water, reducing the scale generated after processing by the evaporator and compressor, and reducing the number of times the equipment pipes need to be cleaned. Then, by turning the bolts 902, the cover plate 801 is removed, and the adsorption layer 11 and filter layer 12 are quickly cleaned in sequence.
