[0003] However, when heating in winter, the high-temperature waste heat discharged by the condenser (such as compressor heat dissipation and condensation waste heat) is usually directly discharged into the environment and is not effectively utilized; when cooling in summer, the heat absorbed by the evaporator from the building is released into the soil through underground pipes. If the waste heat recovery is insufficient, it may lead to local soil temperature imbalance and affect long-term heat exchange efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a coupled energy-saving structure of a ground source heat pump and a waste heat recovery device. Utility Model Content

[0008] Furthermore, the insulation component consists of two insulation plates disposed on both sides of the first annular tube.

[0010] Furthermore, a first connector is provided between the two insulation boards. The first connector is arranged in a ring, and the included angle between two adjacent first connectors is equal.
[0011] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: it can effectively prevent heat loss from the gaps in the insulation board, improve energy utilization, stabilize the connection and enhance the overall structural strength of the insulation component, making it more durable and reducing damage caused by daily use or minor collisions. In addition, the regular ring distribution facilitates installation, improves installation efficiency, and reduces labor costs.
[0012] Furthermore, the waste heat recovery assembly consists of a waste heat recovery pipe fixedly connected to the heat conduction pipe and an adjustable bend.

[0013] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are: the adjustable bends enhance the flexibility of component installation and reduce the impact of space constraints; the parallel structure improves the efficiency of waste heat collection, ensures full recovery and utilization of heat, reduces energy waste, and at the same time, the modular design facilitates maintenance and repair, and some components can be replaced individually when damaged, reducing maintenance costs, extending the overall service life, and improving the practicality and economy of the energy-saving system.
[0014] Furthermore, the heat-conducting component consists of a heat-conducting sleeve fitted onto the waste heat recovery pipe and fins, wherein the fins are disposed on the heat-conducting sleeve and the spacing between two adjacent fins is equal.

[0032] 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.
[0033] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a coupled energy-saving structure of a ground source heat pump and a waste heat recovery device, including a three-way solenoid valve 1, and further including:
[0034] Adjustable mounting assembly 3 consists of a first annular tube 31, a second annular mounting tube 32, a third annular mounting tube 33, and a heat-conducting tube 35. The first annular tube 31 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second annular mounting tube 32, the second annular mounting tube 32 is fixedly connected to the outside of the third annular mounting tube 33, and the third annular mounting tube 33 is fixedly connected to the outside of the heat-conducting tube 35. A heat-conducting tube 35 is fixedly connected to one side of each of the first annular tube 31, the second annular mounting tube 32, and the third annular mounting tube 33. A sealing flange cover 36 is provided on the heat-conducting tube 35. In the adjustable mounting assembly 3, the first annular tube 31, the second annular mounting tube 32, and the third annular mounting tube 33 are fixedly connected sequentially from the outside to the inside, and all are connected to the heat-conducting tube 35. Heat pipes 35 are connected, and heat can be conducted between these annular pipes and heat conduction pipes 35. When the system is running, heat flows in through the heat conduction pipes 35 and is then distributed to each annular pipe. The structure of the annular pipes increases the heat distribution area, making the heat transfer uniform. The sealing flange cover 36 is set on the heat conduction pipes 35 to seal and prevent heat and medium leakage. This component, through the design of the annular pipes, effectively improves the uniformity of heat conduction, improves heat exchange efficiency, and avoids local overheating or overcooling. At the same time, the multi-layer annular pipe structure enhances the overall stability and pressure resistance. The use of the sealing flange cover 36 ensures the system's sealing performance, reduces energy loss and the risk of medium leakage, lowers maintenance costs, and extends the system's service life.
[0035] The insulation component 2 consists of two insulation plates 21 positioned on either side of the first annular pipe 31. Each insulation plate 21 has a mounting groove 23 on its closest side. The dimensions of the mounting groove 23 are adapted to the dimensions of the first annular pipe 31, the second annular mounting pipe 32, the third annular mounting pipe 33, and the heat-conducting pipe 35. The heat-conducting pipe 35 passes through one of the insulation plates 21. In the insulation component 2, the two insulation plates 21 tightly wrap around the first annular pipe 31, the second annular mounting pipe 32, and other components through the mounting groove 23, forming a dense... The closed insulation space blocks heat exchange between the components and the outside environment. The heat-conducting pipe 35 penetrates the insulation board 21, achieving directional heat transfer without damaging the overall insulation structure. This ensures efficient heat transfer in the pipeline and avoids heat leakage and loss. This design significantly reduces heat loss in the pipeline, improves heat transfer efficiency, and reduces energy waste. The tightly wrapped structure effectively protects the pipeline and extends its service life. At the same time, the mounting groove 23 is designed for easy disassembly and maintenance, improving practicality. Furthermore, the insulation component 2 has a simple structure, low cost, and can be widely used in various heat exchange equipment.
[0036] A first connector 22 is provided between two insulation boards 21. The first connectors 22 are arranged in a ring, and the included angle between two adjacent first connectors 22 is equal. This arrangement allows the connectors to be evenly stressed. When the insulation board 21 wraps the pipeline, the first connector 22 provides stable tension, making the two insulation boards 21 fit tightly together to form a complete insulation structure. The even distribution ensures that the stress on each part is balanced, preventing uneven stress from causing gaps, thereby enhancing the insulation effect. It can effectively prevent heat loss from the gaps in the insulation board 21, improve energy utilization, and the stable connection enhances the overall structural strength of the insulation component 2, making it more durable and reducing damage caused by daily use or minor collisions. In addition, the regular ring distribution facilitates installation, improves installation efficiency, and reduces labor costs.
[0037] Waste heat recovery assembly 4 consists of a waste heat recovery pipe 41 fixedly connected to the heat conduction pipe 35 and adjustable bends 42. Two waste heat recovery pipes 41 and two adjustable bends 42 are provided, with the two adjustable bends 42 fixedly connected to the end of the waste heat recovery pipe 41 furthest from the heat conduction pipe 35. The two adjustable bends 42 are fixedly connected to each other. In the waste heat recovery assembly 4, the waste heat recovery pipe 41 is fixedly connected to the heat conduction pipe 35, introducing the waste heat transferred by the heat conduction pipe 35 into the pipe. The two adjustable bends 42 can flexibly change the pipe routing to realize waste heat recovery. The diameter can be adjusted to adapt to different installation environments and waste heat access requirements. Two sets of waste heat recovery pipes 41 and adjustable bends 42 are connected in parallel to increase the contact area for waste heat recovery and can divert waste heat, thereby improving recovery efficiency. The adjustable bends 42 enhance the flexibility of component installation and reduce the impact of space constraints. The parallel structure improves waste heat collection efficiency, ensures full recovery and utilization of heat, and reduces energy waste. At the same time, the modular design facilitates maintenance and repair. When damaged, some components can be replaced individually, reducing maintenance costs, extending the overall service life, and improving the practicality and economy of the energy-saving system.
[0038] The heat-conducting component 5 consists of a heat-conducting sleeve 51 and fins 52 fitted onto the waste heat recovery pipe 41. The fins 52 are arranged on the heat-conducting sleeve 51, and the spacing between adjacent fins 52 is equal. The heat-conducting sleeve 51 of the heat-conducting component 5, fitted onto the waste heat recovery pipe 41, can quickly absorb the waste heat inside the pipe. The fins 52 are distributed on the heat-conducting sleeve 51, and the adjacent spacing is equal. This uniform layout can increase the heat dissipation area, so that heat can be transferred more efficiently from the waste heat recovery pipe 41 to the surrounding environment or other heat exchange media. When the waste heat flows in the waste heat recovery pipe 41, the heat is first conducted to the heat-conducting sleeve 51, and then further diffused through the fins 52. This component significantly improves the waste heat conduction efficiency, accelerates the heat transfer speed, can more fully recover and utilize waste heat, and improves energy utilization. The uniform fin layout 52 ensures the stability and uniformity of heat conduction, avoids local overheating or uneven heat dissipation. In addition, the structure is relatively simple, easy to install and maintain, and reduces the cost of use and maintenance difficulty.
[0039] The input end of the three-way solenoid valve 1 is fixedly connected to the output end of the ground source heat pump. The output end of one of the three-way solenoid valves 1 is connected to the input end of the heat recovery mechanism, and the output end of the other three-way solenoid valve 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting box 34. As a key control component, the three-way solenoid valve 1 has its input end connected to the output end of the ground source heat pump and can receive the heat fluid generated by the ground source heat pump. It can switch according to the preset control signal to flexibly distribute the heat flow direction. When waste heat recovery is required, the output end can be switched to connect with the heat recovery mechanism so that the heat flows into the heat recovery mechanism to realize the collection and reuse of waste heat. If the heat is to be transferred to the connecting box 34 for other purposes, it is switched to the output end connected to the connecting box 34.
[0040] In this utility model, during the installation and erection of the device, the waste heat recovery pipe 41 can be installed on the heat-conducting pipe 35 of the first annular pipe 31, the second annular mounting pipe 32, or the third annular mounting pipe 33 according to the diameter of the ground source heat pump, condenser, or heat exchanger to recover waste heat, avoid heat loss, and improve the waste heat collection effect. Furthermore, the heat-conducting pipe 35 that is not used during the installation process can be sealed with a sealing flange cover 36 to prevent heat loss.
[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
