AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, condensate pipes are easily clogged by dust, preventing condensate from draining properly. Existing solutions cannot effectively solve this problem.

Method used

Design a dust removal device, including a dust scraping component, a drive component, and a storage box. The dust scraping component reciprocates on the surface of the part to be dusted, brushes off the dust and collects it in the storage box. At the same time, a drainage component is set to realize solid-liquid separation and ensure that condensate is discharged normally.

Benefits of technology

It effectively scrapes and collects dust, avoids clogging of condensate drain pipes, ensures normal drainage of condensate, and improves automation and cleaning efficiency.

Abstract

This utility model provides a dust removal device, a water collection tray, and an air conditioner, relating to the field of air conditioning technology. It solves the technical problem of dust clogging the condensate drain pipe, preventing the normal drainage of condensate. The dust removal device includes a dust scraping assembly, a drive assembly, and a collection box. The dust scraping assembly is positioned above the part to be dusted, used to brush away dust from the surface of the part and push it into the collection box during movement. The drive assembly is connected to the dust scraping assembly, enabling it to reciprocate along the surface of the part. The collection box is located on one side of the part to be dusted, used to collect the dust brushed off by the dust scraping assembly. In this utility model, lint-like dust in the water collection tray is continuously scraped off by the brush of the dust removal device and collected in the collection box, while condensate flows to the drain pipe under gravity, achieving separation of lint and dust from condensate. A confluence channel is provided inside the water collection tray to ensure that condensate can smoothly flow back to the drain hole under the action of the brush.
