[0002] Currently, mobile cold storage facilities, as low-temperature storage equipment that facilitates the transportation and temporary storage of goods, are widely used in cold chain logistics, fresh food distribution, and vaccine and pharmaceutical transportation. Existing mobile cold storage facilities mainly rely on their own refrigeration systems to provide cooling capacity, which can maintain a low-temperature environment inside the storage facility when the refrigeration system is operating normally.

[0003] However, during transportation or use, if the refrigeration system malfunctions, there is insufficient power supply, or the equipment stops operating, the temperature inside the warehouse will rise rapidly, causing the quality of refrigerated goods to decline or even spoil.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a mobile cold storage with a cold storage structure. Summary of the Invention

[0028] 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.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 9As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a mobile cold storage with a cold storage structure, including a mobile cold storage 1, a cold storage mechanism 2 installed on the mobile cold storage 1, and a cold storage plate 21. The cold storage mechanism 2 includes a cold storage plate 21, with a cavity formed on the inner wall of the cold storage plate 21. The cavity on the inner wall of the cold storage plate 21 is filled with a phase change cold storage agent for accumulating cold energy. When the refrigeration system of the mobile cold storage 1 is running, the phase change cold storage agent in the cavity on the inner wall of the cold storage plate 21 absorbs cold energy and undergoes a solidification phase change, storing the cold energy as latent heat. When the refrigeration system stops working or the external ambient temperature rises, the phase change cold storage agent undergoes a melting phase change, releasing the cold energy. The latent heat of phase change stored in the cold storage plate 21 is used to achieve stable temperature control within the storage chamber and extend the low-temperature maintenance time. An input block 22 and an output block 23 are connected to the bottom of the cold storage plate 21. A connecting pipe 24 connects the input block 22 and the output block 23. One end of the connecting pipe 24 is fixedly connected to the input block 22, and the other end is fixedly connected to the output block 23. The connecting pipe 24 is located within the cavity of the cold storage plate 21. Both the input block 22 and the output block 23 are hollow, and both have through holes at their bottoms. The phase change refrigerant within the cavity of the inner wall of the cold storage plate 21 is stored through the latent heat of phase change. The storage and release of cold energy occurs as follows: When the mobile cold storage refrigeration system is running, a flow path is formed through the connecting pipe 24 located within the cavity of the cold storage plate 21 and connected to the input block 22 and the output block 23 at both ends. The fluid exchanges heat with the phase change refrigerant, causing it to solidify and store cold energy. The fluid then flows back to the refrigeration system via the output block 23. When the refrigeration system stops or the ambient temperature rises, the phase change refrigerant melts and releases heat. The cold-carrying fluid in the connecting pipe 24 absorbs the cold energy and is then discharged through the output block 23. This circulation path achieves stable temperature control within the storage facility, extending the low-temperature maintenance time. The input pipe 25 is connected to the bottom through-hole of the input block 22. 25. A drive motor 26 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the input pipe 25. The output shaft of the drive motor 26 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 27. A fan blade 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the main shaft 27. The drive motor 26 is fixed to the inner wall of the input pipe 25. The output shaft of the drive motor 26 drives the main shaft 27 and the fan blade 28 to rotate at high speed, forming a forced convection driving force: Cold storage stage: When the refrigeration system is running, the rotation of the fan blade 28 accelerates the flow rate of the low-temperature cold fluid from the input pipe 25 into the input block 22, enhances the heat exchange efficiency between the fluid in the connecting pipe 24 and the phase change cold storage agent, and promotes the rapid solidification and cold storage of the phase change cold storage agent. Cooling stage: After the phase change refrigerant melts and releases heat, the cooling fluid in the connecting pipe 24 absorbs the cold energy and is discharged through the output block 23. At this time, the airflow generated by the rotation of the fan blade 28 directly acts on the cooling fluid, accelerating its diffusion inside the cold storage. At the same time, a circulating suction force is formed through the bottom hole of the input pipe 25, pushing the fluid back to the connecting pipe 24, realizing the continuous transfer and uniform distribution of cold energy. A dustproof mechanism 3 is provided on the input pipe 25, which is used to filter the air entering the input pipe 25.

[0030] The dustproof mechanism 3 includes a filter screen 31, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the input pipe 25. A hollow column 32 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 27. Lightweight rods 33 are symmetrically slidably arranged on the inner wall of the hollow column 32. A return spring 34 connects the lightweight rods 33 to the inner wall of the hollow column 32. A semi-circular plate 35 is fixedly connected to the end of the lightweight rods 33 away from the return spring 34. The filter screen 31 is fixed to the inner wall of the input pipe 25, directly intercepting dust and impurities in the air and preventing them from entering the subsequent flow path. When the hollow column 32 rotates with the main shaft 27, the symmetrically arranged lightweight rods 33 overcome the tension of the return spring 34 due to centrifugal force and slide outward along the inner wall of the hollow column 32, causing the semi-circular plate 35 to move away relatively, allowing the filter screen 31 to be leaked out. When the drive motor 26 stops running, the centrifugal force disappears, the return spring 34 pulls the lightweight rod 33 to reset, and the semi-arc plate 35 returns to its original position, blocking the filter screen 31. The blocked state can reduce the heat exchange between the external environment and the inside of the input pipe 25, help maintain the low temperature state of the phase change refrigerant in the cavity of the cold storage plate 21, and indirectly extend the overall low temperature maintenance time of the cold storage.

[0031] One end of the return spring 34 is fixedly connected to the lightweight rod 33, and the other end of the return spring 34 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow column 32. The surface of the mobile cold storage 1 is covered with aerogel, and the surface of the aerogel is covered with a multifunctional reflective paint. The input block 22 and the output block 23 are fixedly connected to the cold storage plate 21 through a sealed connection structure. The connecting pipe 24 is corrugated in the cavity of the cold storage plate 21 to increase the heat exchange area with the phase change cold storage agent. The drive motor 26 is connected to the main shaft 27 through a coupling. The main shaft 27 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner wall filter screen 31. The cold storage mechanism 2 is located at the top of the inner wall of the mobile cold storage 1, and multiple connecting pipes 24 are provided.

[0032] In use, the mobile cold storage unit 1 with a cold storage structure of this utility model operates as follows: First, the refrigeration system is activated. The refrigeration system sends a low-temperature cooling fluid into the input block 22 via the input pipe 25. The drive motor 26 rotates the main shaft 27 and fan blades 28 at high speed, creating forced convection. This causes the cooling fluid to flow rapidly through the input block 22, the connecting pipe 24, and the output block 23. Inside the connecting pipe 24, the cooling fluid exchanges heat with the phase change refrigerant in the cavity of the cold storage plate 21. The phase change refrigerant absorbs the cold energy and undergoes a solidification phase change, storing the cold energy as latent heat. The cooling fluid then flows back to the refrigeration system via the output block 23, forming a cycle. When the refrigeration system stops working or the external ambient temperature rises, the phase change refrigerant in the cavity of the cold storage plate 21 gradually melts from its solidified state, releasing the previously stored latent heat of phase change. The fluid in the connecting pipe 24 absorbs this latent heat. After being measured, the fluid is discharged from the output block 23 and rapidly diffused into the cold storage under the airflow of the fan blades 28. At the same time, the bottom through hole of the input pipe 25 generates a circulating suction force, which drives the fluid to flow back to the connecting pipe 24, thereby realizing the continuous transfer and uniform distribution of cold energy and ensuring the stable maintenance of the internal temperature of the cold storage. During operation, the dustproof mechanism 3 filters the air drawn in by the input pipe 25. The filter screen 31 can block dust and impurities from entering. When the main shaft 27 rotates at high speed, the hollow column 32 drives the lightweight rod 33 to slide under the action of centrifugal force, so that the semi-arc plate 35 moves away from the filter screen 31, realizing ventilation. When the drive motor 26 stops running, the return spring 34 drives the lightweight rod 33 and the semi-arc plate 35 to reset and block the filter screen 31, reducing the heat exchange between the input pipe 25 and the outside world, thereby helping to extend the low temperature holding time of the phase change refrigerant, and finally realizing the efficient cold storage and cold release functions of the cold storage under different working conditions.
