[0002] In industrial buildings, to meet process requirements or ensure worker comfort, it is usually necessary to introduce a large amount of outdoor air for indoor ventilation. However, for industrial buildings located by the sea or near the sea, outdoor air contains a certain amount of salt spray, which is highly corrosive and can damage the fresh air system and indoor equipment.
[0003] Currently, sintered plate filters are often used in fresh air systems to filter salt mist components in the air. However, after prolonged use, salt mist deposits will appear on the surface of the sintered plate filters, affecting the filtration effect. Therefore, existing fresh air systems are often equipped with fresh water spray devices to spray the sintered plate filters to remove the deposited salt mist and maintain the stability of the filtration performance.
[0004] However, due to the scarcity of freshwater resources in coastal areas, the operating costs of freshwater spray devices and the entire fresh air system are relatively high. Utility Model Content

[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0032] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses a fresh air system suitable for coastal buildings, comprising:
[0033] The housing 1 includes an internal air passage, in which a partition 13 is provided to divide it into a filter chamber 11 and a cooling chamber 12, and the partition 13 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes that connect the filter chamber 11 and the cooling chamber 12.
[0034] Sintered plates 2 are provided in multiples, and multiple sintered plates 2 are arranged at intervals in the filter chamber 11, and the output end of each sintered plate 2 is connected to each mounting hole.
[0035] Refrigeration unit 3 is installed in cooling chamber 12;
[0036] A drip tray 4 is disposed in the cooling chamber 12 and located directly below the refrigeration unit 3;
[0037] Fan 5 is installed in cooling chamber 12 and located at the end of refrigeration unit 3 away from filter chamber 11;
[0038] The condensate spray assembly 6 includes a condensate tank 61. The input end of the condensate tank 61 is connected to the drip tray 4 through a condensate pipe 62. The output end of the condensate tank 61 is connected to a condensate cleaning pipe 63. The condensate cleaning pipe 63 extends into the filter chamber 11 and is connected to multiple condensate spray nozzles 64. A condensate water supply pump 65 is installed on the condensate cleaning pipe 63.
[0039] The seawater spray assembly 7 includes a seawater tank 71. The input end of the seawater tank 71 is connected to the sea through a seawater pipe 72. The output end of the seawater tank 71 is connected to a seawater cleaning pipe 73. The seawater cleaning pipe 73 extends into the filter chamber 11 and is connected to multiple seawater nozzles 74. A seawater supply pump 75 is installed on the seawater cleaning pipe 73.
[0040] Specifically, the two ends of the air passage are the air inlet and the air outlet, respectively. A partition 13 is provided in the air passage, which divides the air passage into a filter chamber 11 connected to the air inlet on the side near the air inlet. The passage behind the partition 13 serves as a cooling chamber 12. The top of the partition 13 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes evenly spaced for connecting the filter chamber 11 and the cooling chamber 12. A sintered plate 2 is installed in each mounting hole. A refrigeration device 3 is provided in the cooling chamber, and a fan 5 is provided in the cooling chamber 12 near the air outlet of the air passage.
[0041] When the fan 5 is running, the air containing salt spray enters the filter chamber 11 through the guide plate at the air inlet. After being filtered by the sintered plate 2, the filtered air is discharged from the outlet above the sintered plate 2 to the cooling chamber 12 behind it. After being cooled by the refrigeration unit 3, it is discharged into the room. The condensate generated by the cooling flows into the drip tray 4 below and is finally collected in the condensate tank 61. The filtered salt spray deposits are trapped on the surface of the filter plate 2. When the salt spray deposits on the surface of the sintered plate 2 accumulate to a certain level, the control system controls the fan 5 to stop running, and the fresh air system switches to the salt spray cleaning mode.
[0042] Salt spray cleaning mode:
[0043] Phase 1 - Coarse Seawater Cleaning: The seawater lift pump 76 is turned on to draw seawater into the seawater tank 71. Then, the seawater in the seawater tank 71 is sent to the front end of the seawater cleaning pipeline 73 through the seawater supply pump 75, so that the seawater is sprayed out from each seawater nozzle 74 to roughly clean the salt spray deposits on the surface of the sintered plate 2. The cleaning cycle is adjusted according to the actual situation. After the cleaning is completed, the seawater lift pump 76 and the seawater supply pump 75 are turned off.
[0044] Second Stage - Secondary Cleaning with Condensate: After the initial seawater cleaning, some salt mist will remain on the surface of the sintered plate 2. At this time, the control system controls the condensate water supply pump 65 to draw condensate water from the condensate water tank 61 and send it to the condensate water nozzle 64 at the front end through the condensate water cleaning pipeline 63 to perform the final cleaning of the salt mist deposits remaining on the surface of the sintered plate 2. The condensate water is relatively pure and can further remove the deposits remaining on the surface of the sintered plate 2, ensuring that the sintered plate 2 maintains good filtration performance. After cleaning, the condensate water supply pump 65 is turned off.
[0045] After the above two cleaning stages are completed, the control system (or controller) controls the fan 5 to start, continuing to send the filtered and cooled air into the room.
[0046] This utility model discloses a fresh air system suitable for coastal buildings. By combining seawater coarse cleaning with condensate water secondary cleaning, it not only solves the problem of high operation and maintenance costs caused by the scarcity of freshwater resources in coastal areas, but also improves the cleaning effect. Furthermore, the condensate water generated during the operation of the fresh air system is recycled, avoiding resource waste and conforming to the development concept of environmental protection and energy conservation, thus having significant economic and environmental benefits.
[0047] Furthermore, a drain outlet 14 communicating with the filter chamber is provided on one side of the housing 1, and the drain outlet 14 is located near the bottom of the filter chamber 11. Specifically, the wastewater containing salt spray deposits that has been washed off is discharged through the drain outlet 14 into a wastewater tank and wastewater pool for unified treatment.
[0048] Furthermore, the drip tray 4 has a groove-shaped structure, with the groove opening facing the refrigeration unit 3, and an outlet is provided at the bottom of the drip tray 4, which is connected to the condensate pipe 62. It should be noted that the size of the drip tray 4 needs to match the size of the refrigeration unit 3 located above it, so that the drip tray 4 can completely catch the falling condensate.
[0049] Furthermore, the section of the seawater cleaning pipe 73 extending into the filter chamber 11 is located below the section of the condensate cleaning pipe 63 extending into the filter chamber 11. Specifically, after the seawater spray assembly 7 has finished operating, the clean condensate sprayed by the condensate spray assembly 6 can rinse the seawater nozzles 74 and other components of the seawater spray assembly 7, which helps to improve the service life of the components.
[0050] Furthermore, a seawater booster pump 76 is installed on the seawater pipe 72.
[0051] Furthermore, a first valve is installed on the condensate cleaning pipe 63, and a second valve is installed on the condensate pipe 62.
[0052] Furthermore, a third valve is installed on the seawater cleaning pipeline 73, and a fourth valve is installed on the seawater pipeline 72.
[0053] Furthermore, it also includes a controller, which is connected to the fan 5, the seawater supply pump 75, the condensate supply pump 65, and the seawater lift pump 76. The controller enables automatic control, improving the overall automation level of the fresh air system.
[0054] Furthermore, the refrigeration device 3 can be a surface cooler.
[0055] Furthermore, both the condensate tank 61 and the seawater tank 71 are equipped with level gauges, which allow real-time monitoring of the liquid levels in the condensate tank 61 and the seawater tank 71. When the liquid level is low, it can be replenished in time to ensure the stable operation of the fresh air system.
[0056] Example 2: Refer to Figure 3 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the piping of the condensate spray assembly 6 and the seawater spray assembly 7 can be improved. Specifically, a three-way valve is installed on the condensate cleaning pipeline 63, and then the seawater cleaning pipeline 73 is connected to the condensate cleaning pipeline 63 through the three-way valve. In this way, the condensate cleaning pipeline 63 can also serve as the pipeline for outputting seawater from the seawater spray assembly 7. Furthermore, the condensate spray assembly 6 and the seawater spray assembly 7 share the nozzle and water supply pump, thereby simplifying the structure of the entire system and reducing the footprint and manufacturing cost.
[0057] Example 3: Refer to Figure 4 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, the sintering plate can also be set along the airflow direction.
[0058] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
