Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of noise control and drainage control technology for heat pump units, and in particular to an integrated noise reduction and drainage baffle for heat pump units. Background Technology

[0002] Noise levels have always been a major concern for users of heat pump units, especially those installed close to users where noise requirements are even stricter. Common noise reduction methods include placing the unit in a more distant installation area, which increases the project budget; or using a lower-speed fan, which reduces heat exchange efficiency and energy efficiency, failing to meet user needs. Furthermore, the defrosting process of heat pump units generates a large amount of defrost water. If this water is not properly managed, it will drip onto the unit's components, freeze, and affect operation. The common solution is to install a drip tray, but when the operating environment is affected by strong winds, the defrost water will drip irregularly, also posing a risk of affecting unit operation.

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned existing technologies, it is necessary to study and design a new type of noise-reducing and hydrophobic integrated baffle for heat pump units, so as to overcome the problems existing in the existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the technical problems of existing heat pump units, such as increased costs and reduced heat exchange efficiency due to noise control, and the issue of condensate dripping onto system components, causing ice buildup and affecting unit operation, this invention provides an integrated noise-reducing and water-draining partition for heat pump units. This invention primarily uses an integrated partition to form a middle partition layer within the unit. Noise reduction is achieved by attaching corrugated sponge to the lower part of the three types of partitions. Simultaneously, the side partitions are installed at an angle to the condenser support, allowing condensate dripping onto the side partitions during unit operation or defrosting to quickly slide off the unit and prevent ice accumulation.

[0005] The technical means adopted in this utility model are as follows:

[0006] A noise-reducing and hydrophobic integrated partition for a heat pump unit is formed by a middle partition and a condenser bracket fixedly connected in the middle; the two sides of the middle partition are respectively fixedly connected to the inner sides of two condenser brackets.

[0007] Furthermore, the heat pump unit uses a noise-reducing and water-draining integrated partition plate, which is formed by two side partitions and two side partitions fixedly connected on the outside of the condenser bracket; after the side partition and the two side partitions are fixedly connected together, they are fixedly installed on the outside of the condenser bracket.

[0008] Furthermore, the side partition is a rectangular plate structure, the main body of which is the horizontal part of the side partition;

[0009] Furthermore, a long bend of the side partition is machined on one long side of the horizontal part of the side partition;

[0010] Furthermore, a short bend in the side partition is machined on one short side of the horizontal part of the side partition;

[0011] Furthermore, mounting holes are pre-set on the long bend of the side partition and the short bend of the side partition.

[0012] Furthermore, the second side partition is a rectangular plate-like structure, the main body of which is the horizontal part of the second side partition;

[0013] Furthermore, a long bend of the side diaphragm is machined on one long side of the horizontal part of the side diaphragm;

[0014] Furthermore, a short bend in the side partition is machined on one short side of the horizontal portion of the side partition;

[0015] Furthermore, mounting holes are pre-set on the long bend of the second side partition and the short bend of the second side partition respectively;

[0016] Furthermore, the second side partition and the first side partition are connected by a pre-set mounting hole on the short bend of the second side partition and the short bend of the first side partition.

[0017] Furthermore, the second side partition and the first side partition are fixedly connected to the condenser bracket through the pre-set mounting holes on the long bend of the second side partition and the long bend of the first side partition.

[0018] Furthermore, the middle partition is a rectangular plate structure, with its main body being the horizontal section;

[0019] Furthermore, the horizontal section has side bends processed on both sides;

[0020] Furthermore, one end of the horizontal section is machined with an end bend;

[0021] Furthermore, the end bend is pre-drilled with mounting holes for fixed connection between the two intermediate partitions;

[0022] Furthermore, the side bend is pre-installed with an installation part for fixing the middle partition plate to the condenser bracket.

[0023] Furthermore, the lower parts of the first side partition, the second side partition, and the middle partition are all covered with 30mm thick corrugated sponge.

[0024] Furthermore, the first and second side partitions are installed at an angle to the condenser bracket;

[0025] Furthermore, the edges of the first and second side partitions are tilted downwards by 2°, so that the condensate drips onto the first and second side partitions and then slides out of the machine.

[0026] Furthermore, the side partition 1 and the side partition 2, as well as the horizontal part of the side partition 1 and the horizontal part of the side partition 2 on the condenser bracket, are all pre-set with electric heater wiring holes and condenser liquid pipe holes;

[0027] Furthermore, toothed sheaths are installed at the cuts of the electric heater wiring hole and the condenser liquid pipe hole.

[0028] Furthermore, the dimensions of the horizontal section of the first side partition, the horizontal section of the second side partition, and the horizontal section are adjusted according to the external dimensions of the heat pump unit.

[0029] Furthermore, the first side partition, the second side partition, and the middle partition are made of galvanized steel sheet with a thickness of not less than 1.2mm and are sprayed with a special primer for galvanized steel sheet.

[0030] Furthermore, when using a noise-reducing and hydrophobic integrated partition for a heat pump unit on a high-efficiency heat pump unit, the middle partition can be omitted, and only the first and second side partitions are placed on both sides of the condenser support to form a noise-reducing and hydrophobic integrated partition for the heat pump unit.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0032] 1. The noise-reducing and hydrophobic integrated partition for heat pump units provided by this utility model forms a middle partition layer of the unit by pasting corrugated sponge on the lower part of the side partition, the second side partition, and the middle partition. This effectively absorbs the noise of the main noise components (such as the compressor), thereby achieving the purpose of noise reduction.

[0033] 2. The noise reduction and water-draining integrated baffle structure for heat pump units provided by this utility model, through the installation and fixing design of the side baffle and the condenser bracket at a 2° angle, blocks the dripping defrost water from dripping onto the unit system components. At the same time, the preset 2° angle allows the defrost water to slide off the machine more effectively.

[0034] In summary, the technical solution of this utility model solves the problems in the prior art, such as increased costs and reduced heat exchange efficiency caused by noise control in existing heat pump units; and the situation where condensate falls onto the unit system components, causing ice formation and affecting the operation of the unit.

Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.
