Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically to an integrated air conditioning structure. Background Technology

[0002] An air conditioning system typically includes a compressor, condenser, flow control valve, and evaporator, connected sequentially through refrigerant piping to form a closed loop. Currently, split-type air conditioners are commonly used in communication equipment rooms, consisting of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit houses the compressor, flow control valve, and evaporator, while the outdoor unit contains the condenser. With continuous innovation in air conditioning technology, integrated air conditioners are gradually being adopted in communication equipment rooms. Integrated air conditioners are generally installed inside server racks in the communication equipment room, directly controlling the environment within the rack. The integrated air conditioner integrates key air conditioning components such as the compressor, condenser, flow control valve, and evaporator within its casing. Compared to split-type air conditioners, integrated air conditioners offer advantages such as convenient installation and maintenance, and flexible layout. However, existing integrated air conditioners suffer from a lack of compactness in their design. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an integrated air conditioning structure, comprising a rectangular housing and a compressor, evaporator, condenser, and centrifugal fan. The compressor, evaporator, condenser, and centrifugal fan are respectively installed inside the housing. The housing has a return air inlet and an air outlet on opposite sides. A vertical partition is fixedly installed inside the housing, dividing the housing into two chambers. The inner ends of the return air inlet and the air outlet are connected to the same chamber. The inner end of the air outlet is connected to the output end of the centrifugal fan. The evaporator is located between the return air inlet and the air outlet. The condenser and evaporator are respectively installed in two different chambers. An air outlet mesh is provided on one side wall of the housing. The condenser is located inside the air outlet mesh. The shaft of the centrifugal fan passes through the partition and has a fan impeller installed at its end. The fan impeller is located inside the condenser.

[0005] Preferably, L-shaped brackets are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the box, and rubber pads are provided on the underside of the brackets.

[0006] Preferably, a support plate is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the housing. The support plate is located above the centrifugal fan and is used to install circuit boards and switches.

[0007] Preferably, both the evaporator and the condenser are finned tube heat exchangers.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the utility model is a rectangular box structure, and the interior is divided into two chambers. The evaporator and condenser are located in the two chambers respectively. The heat exchange of the evaporator and condenser can be realized simultaneously by using a centrifugal fan. The overall layout is reasonable and compact, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0014] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: an integrated air conditioning structure, including a rectangular box 1 and a compressor 3, an evaporator 4, a condenser 5, and a centrifugal fan 6. The compressor 3, evaporator 4, condenser 5, and centrifugal fan 6 are respectively installed inside the box 1. The evaporator 4 and condenser 5 both adopt finned tube heat exchangers and are arranged vertically without intersecting each other. L-shaped brackets 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the box 1. Rubber pads are provided on the lower side of the brackets 2. After installation and fixing, the rubber pads play a role in vibration reduction and noise reduction.

[0015] The housing 1 has a return air inlet 8 and an air outlet 9 on opposite sides. A vertical partition is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the housing 1, which divides the inner cavity of the housing 1 into two chambers. The inner ends of the return air inlet 8 and the air outlet 9 are connected to the same chamber. The inner end of the air outlet 9 is connected to the output end of the centrifugal fan 6. The evaporator 4 is located between the return air inlet 8 and the air outlet 9. When the centrifugal fan 6 is working, it draws air in from the return air inlet 8. The airflow passes through the evaporator 4 for heat exchange and is discharged from the air outlet 9.

[0016] The condenser 5 and evaporator 4 are installed in two different chambers. A partition prevents heat exchange between the condenser 5 and evaporator 4. One side wall of the housing 1 has an air outlet mesh 10. The condenser 5 is located inside the air outlet mesh 10. The shaft of the centrifugal fan 6 passes through the partition and has a fan impeller 7 installed at its end. The fan impeller 7 is located inside the condenser 5. When the centrifugal fan 6 is working, the fan impeller 7 rotates and blows air to the condenser 5 for heat exchange. A support plate is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the housing 1. The support plate is located above the centrifugal fan 6 and is used to install the circuit board and switch. The front of the switch extends from the side wall of the housing 1.

[0017] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
