Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of equipment cooling technology, and more specifically, to a cooling system. Background Technology

[0002] Some equipment is equipped with a cooling system, which can be used to cool the equipment itself, such as cooling the engine of the equipment to ensure stable operation; the cooling system can also be used to cool the product being formed, such as cooling the forming mold of the molding machine to enable the product to be formed quickly.

[0003] Currently, a cooling system generally includes a coolant tank and a coolant drive pump. The coolant tank is equipped with a coolant inlet pipe and a coolant outlet pipe. Both the coolant outlet pipe and the coolant inlet pipe are used to connect to the structure of the equipment to be cooled. The coolant drive pump is used to make the coolant in the coolant tank flow to the structure to be cooled through the coolant outlet pipe, so as to cool the corresponding structure. Then, the coolant flows back to the coolant tank through the coolant inlet pipe, realizing the circulation of coolant to continuously cool the corresponding structure.

[0004] During the circulation of coolant, its quantity may decrease due to evaporation or leakage, resulting in poorer cooling performance. To ensure sufficient coolant, it is usually necessary to assign dedicated personnel to monitor or regularly inspect the cooling system and replenish any missing coolant in a timely manner, leading to high labor costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, this application provides a cooling system that can automatically replenish coolant, thereby reducing labor costs.

[0006] Embodiments of this application provide a cooling system including a coolant tank, a coolant circulation assembly, a liquid storage assembly, and a switching assembly. The coolant circulation assembly is connected to the coolant tank and configured to drive liquid in the coolant tank to flow towards the structure to be cooled and back to the coolant tank. The liquid storage assembly includes a liquid storage tank with a drain pipe connected to the coolant tank, connecting the interior of the liquid storage tank and the interior of the coolant tank. The switching assembly is connected to the drain pipe and configured to open the drain pipe when the liquid level in the coolant tank is below a predetermined height and close the drain pipe when the liquid level in the coolant tank reaches the predetermined height, wherein the liquid level in the liquid storage tank is above the predetermined height.

[0007] This cooling system uses a coolant circulation assembly to drive the circulation of liquid within the coolant tank, continuously cooling the structure to be cooled. The liquid level in the reservoir is higher than that in the coolant tank, resulting in a higher internal pressure of the liquid in the reservoir compared to the coolant tank. When the coolant level in the tank drops below a predetermined height due to a decrease in liquid content, a switch assembly opens the drain pipe, allowing liquid from the reservoir to flow back into the coolant tank. This timely and automatic replenishment of the missing coolant eliminates the need for dedicated personnel to monitor the coolant level, saving labor costs.

[0008] In some embodiments of this application, the liquid storage assembly further includes a liquid storage detection element and a liquid storage warning element, and the cooling system further includes a control component. The liquid storage detection element and the liquid storage warning element are electrically connected to the control component. The liquid storage detection element is configured to detect the liquid content in the liquid storage tank, and the control component is configured to control the liquid storage warning element to issue a warning message when the liquid content in the liquid storage tank is less than a predetermined liquid content.

[0009] The liquid storage detection device can detect the liquid content in the liquid storage tank in real time, and the control component can control the liquid storage warning device to issue a warning message when the liquid content in the liquid storage tank is less than the predetermined liquid content. The warning message can remind the operator to add liquid to the liquid storage tank in time, thereby ensuring that the liquid in the liquid storage tank is sufficient and that the liquid storage tank can replenish the liquid in the coolant tank in a timely manner.

[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the liquid storage assembly further includes a liquid storage detection element, and the cooling system further includes a liquid replenishment assembly and a control assembly. The liquid storage detection element is electrically connected to the control assembly and is configured to detect the liquid content in the liquid storage tank. The liquid replenishment assembly is connected to the liquid storage tank and electrically connected to the control assembly. The control assembly is configured to control the liquid replenishment assembly to deliver liquid to the liquid storage tank when the liquid content in the liquid storage tank is less than a predetermined liquid content.

[0011] When the liquid in the storage tank is less than the predetermined storage content, the control component can control the replenishment component to deliver liquid to the storage tank in a timely and automatic manner to replenish the missing liquid in the storage tank.

[0012] In some embodiments of this application, the fluid replenishment component includes a water replenishment component and a medicine replenishment component; the water replenishment component includes a water tank and a water replenishment drive component, the water tank contains water, and the water replenishment drive component is connected to the water tank and configured to cause the water in the water tank to flow into a storage tank; the medicine replenishment component includes a medicine tank and a medicine drive component, the medicine tank contains medicine, and the medicine drive component is connected to the medicine tank and configured to cause the medicine in the medicine tank to move into the storage tank; both the water replenishment drive component and the medicine drive component are electrically connected to the control component.

[0013] The water replenishment unit can deliver water to the reservoir, and the chemical replenishment unit can deliver chemicals to the reservoir. Chemicals that can improve the quality of the water can be used to give the liquid in the reservoir and coolant tank better performance, such as giving the liquid anti-scaling properties, which can reduce the risk of blockage of the coolant circulation components.

[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the water replenishment unit and / or the medicine replenishment unit further include a content detection unit and a content warning unit. The content detection unit and the content warning unit are electrically connected to the control component. The content detection unit is configured to detect the content of water in the corresponding water replenishment tank or the content of medicine in the corresponding medicine tank. The control component is configured to control the content warning unit to issue a warning message when the content of water or the content of medicine is lower than the corresponding predetermined content.

[0015] When the content detection device works in conjunction with the content warning device, the control component can trigger the content warning device to issue a warning message when the content of the water in the corresponding water tank or the corresponding medicine in the corresponding medicine tank is lower than the predetermined content, so as to remind the operator to replenish the drinking water or medicine in time.

[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the water replenishment device further includes an input pipe, an input control device, and a content detection device. The input pipe is connected to the water replenishment tank and configured to input water into the water replenishment tank. The input control device is connected to the input pipe and configured to open and close the input pipe. The content detection device is configured to detect the content of water in the water replenishment tank. The input control device and the content detection device are electrically connected to a control component. The control component is configured to control the input control device to open the input pipe when the water content in the water replenishment tank is less than a predetermined minimum water content and to control the input control device to close the input pipe when the water content in the water replenishment tank reaches a predetermined maximum water content.

[0017] The control component can control the input control element based on the water content in the water tank. When the water content in the tank decreases to the minimum level, the input control element opens the input pipe to allow water to enter the tank; when the water content increases to the maximum level, the input control element closes the input pipe to stop the water from entering the tank. This design ensures that the water content in the tank remains between the minimum and maximum levels, maintaining a sufficient water level.

[0018] In some embodiments of this application, the cooling system further includes a filter assembly connected to an inlet pipe and configured to filter the water flowing from the inlet pipe to the water supply tank.

[0019] The filter assembly filters the water flowing into the water tank, thus keeping the water in the tank clean.

[0020] In some embodiments of this application, the agent includes one of corrosion and scale inhibitors, sterilizing and algaecides, and alkalinity adjusters.

[0021] Corrosion and scale inhibitors can slow down the formation of scale in water and reduce the corrosiveness of water, thus keeping the water clean; sterilizing and algaecides can kill bacteria and algae in water to keep the water clean; alkalinity adjusters can adjust the alkalinity of water to kill bacteria or algae in water, while also reducing the corrosiveness of water.

[0022] In some embodiments of this application, the switching assembly includes a float valve connected to a drain pipe, wherein the ball of the float valve is disposed in a coolant tank and configured to contact the liquid in the coolant tank.

[0023] When the coolant level in the tank decreases, the buoyancy of the float valve ball decreases, causing the ball to move downwards and opening the valve body, thus opening the drain pipe. When the coolant level in the tank increases, the buoyancy of the float valve ball increases, causing the ball to rise and closing the valve body, thus closing the drain pipe.

[0024] In some embodiments of this application, the switching assembly includes a control valve, a valve body control element, and a sensor. The control valve is connected to a drain pipe, and the control valve and the sensor are electrically connected to the valve body control element.

[0025] The valve body control unit can automatically control the control valve according to the liquid content in the coolant tank. When the liquid level in the coolant tank decreases, the control valve opens to open the drain pipe; when the liquid level in the coolant tank increases, the control valve closes to close the drain pipe.

[0032] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0033] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0034] The term “and / or” as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0035] Embodiments of this application provide a cooling system including a coolant tank, a coolant circulation assembly, a liquid storage assembly, and a switching assembly. The coolant circulation assembly is connected to the coolant tank and configured to drive the liquid in the coolant tank to flow towards the structure to be cooled and back to the coolant tank. The liquid storage assembly includes a liquid storage tank with a drain pipe connected to the coolant tank, connecting the interior of the liquid storage tank and the interior of the coolant tank. The switching assembly is connected to the drain pipe and configured to open the drain pipe when the liquid level in the coolant tank is below a predetermined height and close the drain pipe when the liquid level in the coolant tank reaches the predetermined height, wherein the liquid level in the liquid storage tank is above the predetermined height.

[0036] This cooling system uses a coolant circulation assembly to drive the circulation of liquid within the coolant tank, continuously cooling the structure to be cooled. The liquid level in the reservoir is higher than that in the coolant tank, resulting in a higher internal pressure of the liquid in the reservoir compared to the coolant tank. When the coolant level in the tank drops below a predetermined height due to a decrease in liquid content, a switch assembly opens the drain pipe, allowing liquid from the reservoir to flow back into the coolant tank. This timely and automatic replenishment of the missing coolant eliminates the need for dedicated personnel to monitor the coolant level, saving labor costs.

[0037] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiments of this application provide a cooling system 100. The cooling system 100 includes a coolant tank 11, a coolant circulation assembly 12, a coolant storage assembly 13, and a switch assembly 14.

[0039] The coolant circulation assembly 12 is connected to the coolant tank 11 and configured to drive the liquid in the coolant tank 11 to flow towards the structure to be cooled and back to the coolant tank 11. In some embodiments, the coolant circulation assembly 12 includes an outlet pipe 121, a coolant drive pump 122, and an inlet pipe 123. Both the outlet pipe 121 and the inlet pipe 123 are connected to the coolant tank 11, and the ends of the outlet pipe 121 and the inlet pipe 123 away from the coolant tank 11 are configured to connect to the structure to be cooled. For example, the structure to be cooled is a molding die (not shown), the outlet pipe 121 communicates with the inlet hole of the molding die, and the inlet pipe 123 communicates with the outlet hole of the molding die.

[0040] The coolant-driven pump 122 is connected to the outlet pipe 121. The outlet pipe 121 includes an input section 1211 and an output section 1212. The input section 1211 connects the reservoir 131 and the input end of the coolant-driven pump 122. The output section 1212 connects the output section 1212 and the output end of the coolant-driven pump 122. The end of the output section 1212 furthest from the coolant-driven pump 122 is connected to the structure to be cooled. The coolant-driven pump 122 causes the liquid in the coolant tank 11 to flow through the outlet pipe 121 to the structure to be cooled. The liquid at the structure to be cooled flows back to the coolant tank 11 through the inlet pipe 123, causing the liquid to circulate between the coolant tank 11 and the structure to be cooled, thereby continuously cooling the structure.

[0041] Reference Figure 1The liquid storage assembly 13 includes a liquid storage tank 131, which is provided with a drain pipe 1311 connected to the coolant tank 11, and the drain pipe 1311 connects the interior of the liquid storage tank 131 and the interior of the coolant tank 11. A switch assembly 14 is connected to the drain pipe 1311, and the switch assembly 14 is configured to open the drain pipe 1311 when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 is below a predetermined height, and to close the drain pipe 1311 when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 reaches the predetermined height, so that the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 131 is above the predetermined height. In some embodiments, the liquid storage tank 131 is mounted on a bracket 1312, thereby raising the height of the liquid storage tank 131 to increase the liquid level in the liquid storage tank 131. In some embodiments, the drain pipe 1311 connects the lower end of the reservoir 131 and the upper end of the coolant tank 11. It is understood that the highest point of the drain pipe 1311 is lower than the liquid level in the reservoir 131. In other embodiments, the drain pipe 1311 connects the lower end of the reservoir 131 and the lower end of the coolant tank 11, as long as the liquid level in the reservoir 131 is higher than the liquid level in the coolant tank 11.

[0042] When the liquid content in the coolant tank 11 decreases, causing the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 to fall below a predetermined height, the switch assembly 14 can open the drain pipe 1311, allowing the liquid in the reservoir 131 to flow into the coolant tank 11 along the drain pipe 1311, so as to timely and automatically compensate for the lack of liquid in the coolant tank 11. This eliminates the need for a dedicated person to monitor the liquid content in the coolant tank 11, thus saving labor costs.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the switching assembly 14 is a float valve 141 connected to a drain pipe 1311. The ball of the float valve 141 is disposed within the coolant tank 11 and configured to contact the liquid within the coolant tank 11. Exemplarily, the drain pipe 1311 extends through the coolant tank 11, and the float valve 141 is connected to the end of the drain pipe 1311 located within the coolant tank 11. When the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 decreases, the buoyancy of the liquid on the ball of the float valve 141 decreases, causing the ball of the float valve 141 to move downwards, opening the valve body of the float valve 141 and thus opening the drain pipe 1311. When the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 increases, the buoyancy of the liquid on the ball of the float valve 141 increases, causing the ball of the float valve 141 to rise, closing the valve body of the float valve 141 and thus closing the drain pipe 1311. Figure 2 The float valve 14 is located inside the coolant tank 11. The float valve 14 is obscured by the coolant tank 11 and is shown in the form of a dashed line.

[0044] Reference Figure 1and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the switching assembly 14 includes a control valve 142, a valve body control element 143, and a sensor 144. The control valve 142 is connected to the drain pipe 1311, and the control valve 142 and the sensor 144 are electrically connected to the valve body control element 143. The sensor 144 is configured to sense the liquid level in the coolant tank 11. In some embodiments, the control valve 142 is a solenoid valve, the valve body control element 143 is a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), and the sensor 144 is a liquid level sensor disposed in the coolant tank 11. In other embodiments, the sensor 144 may be a weighing sensor, used to sense the total weight of the coolant tank 11 and the liquid in the coolant tank 11. It is understood that when the liquid content in the coolant tank 11 decreases, the weight of the liquid decreases, and the liquid level decreases. In other embodiments, the valve body control element 143 may also be a microcontroller or other device capable of controlling the control valve 142 according to the signal input from the sensor 144.

[0045] The valve body control element 143 is configured to open the control valve 142 when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 is below a predetermined height and to close the control valve 142 when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 reaches the predetermined height. The valve body control element 143 can automatically control the control valve 142 according to the liquid content in the coolant tank 11. The control valve 142 opens when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 decreases, thereby opening the drain pipe 1311; the control valve 142 closes when the liquid level in the coolant tank 11 increases, thereby closing the drain pipe 1311.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the liquid storage assembly 13 further includes a liquid storage detection element 132 and a liquid storage warning element 133. The cooling system 100 also includes a control assembly 15. The liquid storage detection element 132 and the liquid storage warning element 133 are electrically connected to the control assembly 15. The liquid storage detection element 132 is configured to detect the liquid content in the liquid storage tank 131. The control assembly 15 is configured to control the liquid storage warning element 133 to issue a warning message when the liquid content in the liquid storage tank 131 is less than a predetermined liquid content. In some embodiments, the control assembly 15 is a PLC, the liquid storage detection element 132 is a liquid level sensor, and the liquid storage warning element 133 is an audible and visual alarm, with the warning message being the sound and light emitted by the audible and visual alarm. In other embodiments, the liquid storage detection element 132 may be a weighing sensor. In other embodiments, the liquid storage warning element 133 may be a display, with the warning message being a pattern or text displayed on the display.

[0047] The liquid storage detection device 132 can detect the liquid content in the liquid storage tank 131 in real time, and the control component 15 can control the liquid storage warning device 133 to issue a warning message when the liquid content in the liquid storage tank 131 is less than the predetermined liquid content. The warning message can remind the operator to add liquid to the liquid storage tank 131 in time, thereby ensuring that the liquid in the liquid storage tank 131 is sufficient, so that the liquid storage tank 131 can replenish the liquid in the coolant tank 11 in time.

[0048] In some embodiments, the cooling system 100 further includes a liquid replenishment assembly 16, which is connected to the liquid reservoir 131 and electrically connected to the control assembly 15. The control assembly 15 is configured to control the liquid replenishment assembly 16 to deliver liquid into the liquid reservoir 131 when the liquid content in the liquid reservoir 131 is less than a predetermined liquid content, so as to deliver liquid into the liquid reservoir 131 in a timely and automatic manner to replenish the liquid missing in the liquid reservoir 131.

[0049] In some embodiments, the fluid replenishment assembly 16 includes an aqueous replenishment component 161 and a pharmaceutical replenishment component 162.

[0050] The water replenishment component 161 includes a water tank 1611 and a water replenishment drive 1612. The water tank 1611 contains water, and the water replenishment drive 1612 is electrically connected to the control component 15. The water replenishment drive 1612 is connected to the water tank 1611 and configured to allow the water in the water tank 1611 to flow into the storage tank 131. In some embodiments, the water replenishment drive 1612 is a water pump; the input end of the water replenishment drive 1612 is connected to the water tank 1611 via a pipe, and the output end of the water replenishment drive 1612 is connected to the storage tank 131 via a pipe.

[0051] The medication replenishment unit 162 includes a medication tank 1621 and a medication drive 1622. The medication tank 1621 contains medication, and the medication drive 1622 is connected to the medication tank 1621 and configured to move the medication in the medication tank 1621 to a storage tank 131. The medication drive 1622 is electrically connected to the control component 15. In some embodiments, the medication in the medication tank 1621 is liquid, and the medication drive 1622 is a water pump. In other embodiments, the medication in the medication tank 1621 may be solid, such as powder, and the medication drive 1622 is a vacuum feeder or a suction feeder.

[0052] In other embodiments, the medicine tank 1621 is provided with a discharge port, and the medicine driving component 1622 is a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve is located at the discharge port and configured to block the discharge port; the discharge port is connected to the interior of the storage tank 131 through a pipe. The control component 15 controls the solenoid valve to open the discharge port, so that the medicine in the medicine tank 1621 can be discharged into the storage tank 131 under its own gravity.

[0053] The water replenishment component 161 can deliver water to the reservoir 131, and the chemical replenishment component 162 can deliver chemicals to the reservoir 131. Chemicals that can improve the quality of the water can be used, so that the liquid in the reservoir 131 and the coolant tank 11 has better performance, such as making the liquid have anti-scaling properties, which can reduce the risk of blockage of the coolant circulation component 12.

[0054] In some embodiments, the agents in the agent tank 1621 include one of corrosion and scale inhibitors, sterilizing and algaecides, and alkalinity adjusters. For example, the agent is a corrosion and scale inhibitor.

[0055] Corrosion and scale inhibitors can slow down the formation of scale in water and reduce its corrosiveness, thus keeping the water clean. Sterilizers and algaecides can kill bacteria and algae in the water to maintain its cleanliness. Alkalinity adjusters can adjust the alkalinity of the water to kill bacteria or algae while also reducing its corrosiveness. In some embodiments, the agent may also be a dispersant or other type of circulating water treatment agent. Circulating water treatment agents are commonly used to improve the properties of circulating water and are commercially available; their specific components are not detailed here.

[0056] In some embodiments, the water replenishment unit 161 and / or the medicine replenishment unit 162 further include a content detection unit 1613 and a content warning unit. The content detection unit 1613 and the content warning unit are electrically connected to the control component 15. The content detection unit 1613 is configured to detect the content of water in the corresponding water replenishment tank 1611 or the content of medicine in the corresponding medicine tank 1621. The control component 15 is configured to control the content warning unit to issue a warning message when the content of water or the content of medicine is lower than the corresponding predetermined content.

[0057] Here, we take the water replenishment unit 161 and the medicine replenishment unit 162, each of which also includes a content detection element 1613 and a content warning element, as examples. In some embodiments, the content warning element is a storage warning element 133. The content detection element 1613 is a liquid level sensor. The content detection element 1613 of the water replenishment unit 161 is disposed in the water replenishment tank 1611 and configured to sense the liquid level of the water in the water replenishment tank 1611. The content detection element 1613 of the medicine replenishment unit 162 is disposed in the medicine tank 1621 and configured to sense the liquid level of the medicine in the medicine tank 1621. In other embodiments, the content detection element 1613 may be a load sensor.

[0058] The content detection element 1613 works in conjunction with the content warning element. When the water in the corresponding water tank 1611 or the medicine in the corresponding medicine tank 1621 is lower than the predetermined content, the control component 15 can cause the content warning element to issue a warning message to remind the operator to replenish the drinking water or medicine in time.

[0059] In some embodiments, the water replenishment device 161 further includes an input pipe 1615 and an input control device 1616. The input pipe 1615 is connected to the water tank 1611 and configured to input water into the water tank 1611. The input control device 1616 is connected to the input pipe 1615 and configured to open and close the input pipe 1615. A content detection device 1613 is configured to detect the content of water in the water tank 1611. The input control device 1616 and the content detection device 1613 are electrically connected to a control assembly 15. The control assembly 15 is configured to control the input control device 1616 to open the input pipe 1615 when the water content in the water tank 1611 is less than a predetermined minimum water content, and to control the input control device 1616 to close the input pipe 1615 when the water content in the water tank 1611 reaches a predetermined maximum water content. In some embodiments, the input control device 1616 is a solenoid valve. In some embodiments, the input pipe 1615 is connected to a positive pressure water source. For example, the input pipe 1615 is connected to a tap, or the input pipe 1615 is connected to the output end of a water pump connected to a water tank.

[0060] In some embodiments, the control component 15 can control the input control component 1616 according to the water content in the water tank 1611. When the water content in the water tank 1611 decreases to the minimum water content, the input control component 1616 opens the input pipe 1615 to allow water to enter the water tank 1611; when the water content in the water tank 1611 increases to the maximum water content, the input control component 1616 closes the input pipe 1615 to stop the input of water into the water tank 1611. This configuration ensures that the water content in the water tank 1611 is always maintained between the minimum and maximum water content, thus maintaining a sufficient water content in the water tank 1611.

[0061] It is understood that when the content detection element 1613 is selected as a liquid level sensor, two content detection elements 1613 can be set at intervals along the vertical direction in the water replenishment tank 1611. The content detection element 1613 located at the upper position is used to detect whether the water in the water replenishment tank 1611 has increased to the maximum water content, and the content detection element 1613 located at the lower position is used to detect whether the water in the water replenishment tank 1611 has decreased to the minimum water content.

[0062] In some embodiments, the cooling system 100 further includes a filter assembly 17 connected to an inlet pipe 1615 and configured to filter water flowing from the inlet pipe 1615 to the water supply tank 1611. Exemplarily, the filter assembly 17 is a water purifier. In other embodiments, the filter assembly 17 may be a water purifier or other type of structural component, as long as it is capable of filtering water.

[0063] Furthermore, those skilled in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any appropriate changes and variations made to the above embodiments within the essential spirit and scope of this application fall within the scope of this application's disclosure.
