Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of internal heat dissipation technology for oxygen concentrators, specifically a heat dissipation structure for an oxygen concentrator compressor. Background Technology

[0002] The compressor of a molecular sieve oxygen generator generates a large amount of heat during prolonged operation. Overheating can lead to decreased efficiency, shortened lifespan, or even shutdown. Currently, the mainstream cooling solution is to use a cooling fan for forced air cooling. However, this method has some problems: the fan consumes a lot of energy while running continuously, and it is also a noise source and a potential point of failure. As a single cooling method, the compressor's heat dissipation efficiency needs to be further improved.

[0003] On the other hand, during the oxygen production process, the oxygen generator continuously discharges dry waste nitrogen gas from the nitrogen exhaust silencer outlet. The energy of this gas flow is not utilized and is directly released into the environment, resulting in resource waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a heat dissipation structure for an oxygen generator compressor, which solves the problems of high energy consumption for heat dissipation in existing compressors and the ineffective utilization of nitrogen flow from exhaust gases.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A heat dissipation structure for an oxygen generator compressor includes a compressor and a casing. The casing is located outside the compressor, and the compressor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the casing cavity. A cooling fan that directly blows onto the compressor is installed on the casing. A nitrogen exhaust silencer is detachably installed on the casing cavity wall. An airflow guide is connected to the outlet end of the nitrogen exhaust silencer, and the airflow guide guides the nitrogen discharged from the nitrogen exhaust silencer to blow onto the surface of the compressor body.

[0007] Preferably, the waste nitrogen gas, after being reduced in noise by the nitrogen exhaust silencer, forms a directional cooling airflow through the airflow guide section, blows onto the surface of the compressor housing, and is discharged from the housing through the air outlet located at the housing.

[0008] Preferably, the chassis is composed of multiple sheet metal shells, one of which has an air vent.

[0009] Preferably, multiple sets of fixing brackets are symmetrically arranged on one side of the nitrogen exhaust silencer, and mating holes that match the fixing brackets are opened on the side wall of the chassis.

[0010] Preferably, a sound-absorbing cotton block is fixedly connected to the cavity wall of the chassis.

[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] The oxygen concentrator compressor's heat dissipation structure, through the arrangement of airflow guides on the nitrogen exhaust silencer, allows the exhaust nitrogen, after noise reduction by the silencer, to be directed and cooled by airflow onto the compressor casing surface. This, together with the cooling fan, forms a composite heat dissipation system, creating a dual heat dissipation mode of "forced air cooling by the cooling fan + auxiliary cooling by exhaust nitrogen injection." This significantly improves heat dissipation capacity compared to a single air cooling system, effectively addressing the heat dissipation challenges under high loads or high temperatures. Furthermore, the exhaust nitrogen-assisted cooling requires no additional energy consumption, and its effective cooling effect reduces the workload of the main cooling fan, allowing it to operate at lower speeds most of the time, thereby reducing overall energy consumption.

[0018] 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.

[0019] A heat dissipation structure for an oxygen generator compressor 2 includes a compressor 2 and a casing 1. The casing 1 covers the outside of the compressor 2. The compressor 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the casing 1. A cooling fan 3 that blows directly onto the compressor 2 is provided on the casing 1. A nitrogen exhaust silencer 4 is detachably installed on the wall of the casing 1. An airflow guide part 5 is connected to the outlet 11 end of the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4. The airflow guide part 5 guides the nitrogen discharged from the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4 to blow it toward the surface of the compressor 2.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in the above technical solution, by arranging an airflow guide 5 on the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4, the waste nitrogen gas, after noise reduction by the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4, can be directed through the airflow guide 5 to form a directional cooling airflow, which blows onto the surface of the compressor 2 housing. Together with the cooling fan 3, this forms a composite cooling system for the compressor 2, creating a dual cooling mode of "forced air cooling by the cooling fan + waste nitrogen injection-assisted cooling." The cooling capacity is significantly higher than that of a single air cooling system, effectively addressing the cooling challenges under high load or high temperature environments. Simultaneously, the waste nitrogen-assisted cooling requires no additional energy consumption, and its effective cooling effect reduces the workload of the main cooling fan 3, allowing the fan to operate at a lower speed most of the time, thereby reducing the overall power consumption of the machine.

[0021] With the aforementioned synergistic composite heat dissipation system, improved heat dissipation conditions extend the lifespan of compressor 2 and the most frequently used cooling fan 3, enhancing the overall reliability and durability of the machine. Furthermore, this solution fully utilizes existing structures and waste energy, requiring only the addition of a simple guide device, resulting in minimal hardware cost while delivering a significant performance improvement, making it highly valuable for market promotion.

[0022] The waste nitrogen gas, after being reduced in noise by the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4, forms a directional cooling airflow through the airflow guide 5, blowing onto the surface of the compressor 2 housing, and is discharged from the casing 1 through the air outlet 11 located at the casing 1. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this technical solution, driven by the cooling fan 3, the nitrogen gas blown to cool the compressor 2 is discharged from the air outlet 11 on the chassis 1, thereby ensuring good heat dissipation circulation and improving the heat dissipation effect of the compressor 2 inside the chassis 1.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, in this technical solution, the chassis 1 is composed of multiple sheet metal shells, one of which has an air outlet 11.

[0024] The nitrogen exhaust silencer 4 has multiple sets of fixing brackets 41 symmetrically arranged on one side, and the side wall of the casing 1 has mating holes 12 that match the fixing brackets 41 one by one. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in practical applications, the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4 can be detachably installed by passing a cable tie through the mating hole 12 and the fixing bracket 41, which facilitates daily cleaning and replacement of the nitrogen exhaust silencer 4.

[0025] Sound-absorbing cotton blocks are fixedly connected to the cavity wall of the chassis 1. For example... Figure 4 As shown in the figure, in this technical solution, the noise generated by the compressor 2 inside the chassis 1 during operation can be further reduced by the sound-absorbing cotton blocks.
