Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of RV heating equipment compartments, and more particularly to an RV heating equipment compartment. Background Technology

[0002] RVs are becoming increasingly popular in our lives, with more and more people enjoying traveling in them. RVs are also becoming more versatile, serving as mobile homes and providing users with more assistance. However, existing RV heating systems take up considerable space, significantly impacting usability. Furthermore, current heating systems are inefficient, have slow preheating speeds, and generate high internal temperatures during heating. In extremely cold regions, this can cause water pipes to freeze, preventing the heating chamber from heating water immediately and affecting users' hot water needs.

[0003] Therefore, the applicant designed a heating equipment compartment for RVs that can effectively heat water, quickly provide hot and cold water, and has a fast heating efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a heating equipment compartment for a motorhome, employing the following technical solution:

[0005] A heating equipment compartment for a motorhome includes a compartment shell with a cavity inside. The shell has a movable, foldable cover. The interior of the shell has water inlet / outlet passages and a heating module. The water inlet / outlet passages include a water inlet pipe connected to a water pump. The heating module includes a heater, an antifreeze tank, and an exchanger. The heating modules are interconnected through heating pipes and circulate heating within the shell.

[0006] Optionally, the heating pipes on the heater are connected to the antifreeze tank, the heating pipes on the antifreeze tank are connected to the heat exchanger, and the heating pipes on the heat exchanger are connected to the heater.

[0007] Optionally, the water pump is equipped with an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is connected to the inlet pipe, and the outlet is equipped with a T-shaped connector, which is connected to the cold water pipe and the heat exchanger respectively.

[0010] Optionally, a toilet container pull-out outlet is provided on the back side of the housing.

[0011] Optionally, the housing is provided with a waterproof flange structure, and a sealing ring is provided on the waterproof flange structure.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the heat of the heater is absorbed by the heat exchanger and the absorbed heat is used to heat the cold water entering the water inlet pipe, thereby achieving the heating of cold water. The heating module uses cyclic heating to stabilize the temperature change and prevent large temperature differences that could cause uneven heating, thus improving the heating efficiency. A warm air duct is also provided, which allows warm air to enter in cold weather to preheat the water inlet pipe, preventing the water pipe from freezing and clogging the water inlet. The casing also increases the placement space and improves the space utilization rate. Attached Figure Description

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," and "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] An embodiment of this utility model provides a heating equipment compartment for a motorhome.

[0024] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, a heating equipment compartment for a motorhome includes a housing 1 with a cavity inside for housing the equipment. A waterproof flange structure 102 is provided on the housing 1, and a sealing ring is provided on the waterproof flange structure 102. A movable folding cover 101 is provided on the housing 1, and the cover 101 is fixedly connected to the housing 1 by a hinge, thereby enabling the cover 101 to fold on the housing 1. After the cover 101 is folded, it closes the equipment compartment, and the closed cover 101 fits tightly against the waterproof flange structure 102.

[0025] The housing 1 is equipped with an inlet and outlet water passage and a heating module. The inlet and outlet water passage includes an inlet pipe 2, on which a water pump 4 is connected. The water pump 4 is equipped with an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is connected to the inlet pipe 2. The outlet of the water pump 4 is equipped with a T-shaped interface, which is connected to the cold water pipe 901 and the heat exchanger 7 respectively. Water can flow directly from the cold water pipe 901. The water entering the heat exchanger 7 is heated by the heating module and flows into the hot water pipe 902 for user use.

[0026] The heating module includes a heater 5, an antifreeze tank 6, and an exchanger 7. The heating modules are interconnected through heating pipes 903. The heating pipes 903 on the heater 5 are connected to the antifreeze tank 6, the heating pipes 903 on the antifreeze tank 6 are connected to the exchanger 7, and the heating pipes 903 on the exchanger 7 are connected to the heater 5, thus realizing the circulation of the entire pipeline.

[0027] After being heated by heater 5, the antifreeze water circulates in heating pipe 903. The heated antifreeze water undergoes heat exchange in exchanger 7, which heats the water entering exchanger 7 from inlet pipe 2. The heated water flows into hot water pipe 902, while the antifreeze water after heat exchange flows through heating pipe back to heater 5 for reheating.

[0028] A heating pipe 3 is provided on the bottom side of the shell 1. The heating pipe 3 extends into the interior of the shell 1. Several heating outlets 301 are provided around the heating pipe 3 that enters the interior of the shell 1. The heating pipe 3 delivers warm air into the shell 1 to preheat the water pipes and prevent the water pipes inside the shell 1 from freezing due to low temperature.

[0029] A toilet container can be installed inside the housing 1, and a toilet container pull-out outlet 8 is provided on the back side of the housing 1 to facilitate the removal of the toilet container from the housing.

[0030] The heating module of this device absorbs heat from the heater 5 through the heat exchanger 7 and uses the absorbed heat to heat the cold water entering through the inlet pipe 2, thus heating the cold water. The heated water then flows into the hot water pipe 902 for user convenience. The circulating heating maintains a stable temperature, preventing large temperature fluctuations and uneven heating, and also improves heating efficiency. The dual water path design allows the heating module to continuously heat the inlet and outlet water paths. In addition, a warm air pipe is provided, allowing warm air to enter in cold weather to preheat the inlet pipe 2, preventing the water pipe from freezing and clogging the inlet. The housing 1 also increases the placement space, improving space utilization.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and not restrictive in all respects. The scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims, not by the foregoing description, and is therefore intended to encompass all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0032] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
