Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of condenser protection technology, and in particular to a condenser windproof and freeze-proof protection device with a heat insulation layer. Background Technology

[0002] The condenser is a key heat exchange device in a refrigeration system. Its main function is to cool the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant vapor discharged from the compressor into a liquid state, completing the phase change by releasing heat. It is widely used in refrigeration equipment such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and cold storage facilities.

[0003] Patent CN213713638U discloses a novel condenser shell, comprising a tube body, cover plates at both ends of the tube body, and a base below the tube body. A sleeve is fitted onto the tube body, and an insulation layer is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve. Connecting rings are located at both ends of the tube body, and the connecting rings are fixed to the tube body by screws. The cover plates are located on the connecting rings, and the tube body is rotatably connected to the base. The insulation layer enhances the heat insulation effect of the tube body, preventing excessive heat loss from the condenser and affecting its performance. The sleeve and insulation layer work together to further increase the thickness of the tube body, providing excellent heat insulation. The rotatable connection between the tube body and the base allows for adjustments to the condenser after initial installation, greatly reducing the difficulty of condenser installation and making subsequent position adjustments more convenient.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned and existing related technologies, the inventors believe that the following defects often exist: Traditional condenser insulation devices mostly use a single insulation material, which can only rely on the material's own thermal insulation performance to achieve insulation. This cannot cope with drastic fluctuations in ambient temperature. When the outside temperature drops sharply, the insulation effect is greatly reduced, making it difficult to effectively prevent icing inside the condenser. In terms of windproof design, it cannot effectively guide airflow. When strong winds directly impact the surface of the device, they easily generate large wind resistance, which not only increases the stress load on the device but may also cause the connection between the device and the condenser to loosen due to wind disturbance, affecting the overall stability. At the same time, the wind resistance is insufficient, and it is easy to deform or even be damaged in strong wind environments. In addition, some devices lack effective thermal insulation filling materials inside the insulation layer, and the heat conduction path is not sufficiently blocked, resulting in low insulation efficiency and failing to provide continuous and stable insulation protection for the condenser. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is that the existing technology has the disadvantages of using a single insulation material in the insulation device, which cannot cope with sudden temperature drops, has insufficient wind resistance, and lacks effective heat insulation filling material inside the insulation layer, resulting in low insulation efficiency. To this end, we propose a windproof and freeze-proof protection device for condensers with an insulation layer.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: a condenser windproof and freezeproof protection device with a heat insulation layer, comprising a condenser, wherein a heat insulation layer is installed on the outer layer of the condenser, and sealing rings are connected to both ends of the heat insulation layer, the heat insulation layer includes a heat insulation layer, the heat insulation layer is installed on the outer ring of the condenser, a phase change layer is installed on the outer ring of the heat insulation layer, a windproof layer is provided on the outer ring of the phase change layer, the windproof layer is connected to the sealing rings, and guide protrusions are installed on the top and bottom of the windproof layer.

[0007] Preferably, the insulation layer is configured as a component made of polyurethane foam.

[0008] Preferably, the phase change layer includes a container installed on the outside of the insulation layer, and the container is filled with a phase change material.

[0009] Preferably, the windproof layer includes an outer shell, which is disposed on the outermost layer of the insulation layer, and a support strip is installed inside the outer shell, with heat insulation filler filling the gaps between the support strips.

[0010] Preferably, the support bars are connected in an interlaced wave shape, and their cross-sections form interlaced triangles with the outer shell wall.

[0011] Preferably, the support strip is a component made of high-density polyethylene.

[0012] Preferably, the container is a component made of silicone.

[0013] Preferably, the container is divided into small cavities.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: This invention achieves efficient and stable insulation through a three-layer insulation structure. The innermost foam insulation layer serves as a basic thermal barrier, directly blocking temperature exchange between the condenser and the external environment, reducing direct heat loss or intrusion of external cold. The middle layer employs a small cavity structure filled with phase change material, such as paraffin wax, which undergoes a heat-absorbing or heat-releasing phase change process when the temperature changes. When the external temperature drops sharply, the phase change material releases the stored heat, maintaining a relatively stable temperature within the insulation layer; when the external temperature rises, it absorbs heat, preventing the condenser from being affected by excessively high temperatures. This three-layer synergistic insulation structure overcomes the limitations of traditional single insulation materials, providing continuous and stable insulation protection for the condenser regardless of ambient temperature fluctuations. It effectively prevents the condenser from freezing due to excessively low temperatures or being damaged by sudden temperature changes, significantly improving the reliability of the condenser in cold environments. In this invention, an excellent windproof and airflow guiding effect is achieved by setting a smooth, curved outer shell structure with pointed top and bottom surfaces. Traditional flat or simple curved shells often suffer significant frontal impact force when facing strong winds, resulting in high wind resistance and easily causing the device to sway, loosen connections, or even be damaged. The special shape design of the curved shell can guide the airflow blowing towards the device smoothly along the curved surface and be diverted in both directions, greatly reducing the direct impact force of the wind on the device and reducing wind resistance. At the same time, the smooth surface further reduces the frictional resistance of the airflow on the shell surface, making the airflow smoother, avoiding the generation of turbulence, reducing the stress load of strong winds on the overall device, reducing the risk of deformation or loosening of connections due to excessive wind, and maintaining the structural stability of the device in windy environments. This ensures that the condenser is not affected by device swaying and allows the condenser to operate normally in windy weather, improving the device's adaptability to complex wind environments.

[0017] It is readily understood that, based on the technical solution of this utility model, those skilled in the art can propose various interchangeable structural methods and implementations without altering the essential spirit of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed embodiments and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative descriptions of the technical solution of this utility model and should not be considered as the entirety of this utility model or as limitations or restrictions on the technical solution of this utility model.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-2As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a windproof and freeze-proof protection device for a condenser with an insulation layer, comprising: a condenser 1, an insulation layer 2 fixedly installed on the outer layer of the condenser 1, sealing rings 3 connected to both ends of the insulation layer 2 by flanges, and insulation cotton material installed inside the sealing rings 3.

[0019] Reference Figure 3 As shown in this embodiment: the insulation layer 2 includes a heat insulation layer 21, which is the innermost layer of the insulation layer 2. The heat insulation layer 21 is installed on the outer ring of the condenser 1 by means of high-temperature resistant double-sided adhesive. The material used for the heat insulation layer 21 is polyurethane foam, which has an extremely low thermal conductivity and can directly block the heat exchange between the condenser 1 and the outer layer, preventing the heat of the condenser 1 from being excessively consumed by the phase change layer 22. The phase change layer 22 is installed on the outer ring of the heat insulation layer 21 by means of adhesive. The phase change layer 22 is filled with a phase change material, such as n-dodecane paraffin. As a phase change material, it has a suitable phase change temperature, which is about -10°C. It can release latent heat through solidification when the ambient temperature drops, providing a stable heat supply for the condenser 1. Passive heat supply delays the sudden drop in temperature. The filling ratio is set to 75%-85% of the total cavity volume, with 15%-25% space reserved to cope with expansion. This ensures that the phase change material has sufficient expansion space during the phase change process, preventing the cavity from cracking due to volume expansion. A windproof layer 23 is attached to the outer ring of the phase change layer 22. The windproof layer 23 is located at the outermost end and has a smooth outer surface. The windproof layer 23 is connected to the sealing ring 3 through a flange. The top and bottom of the windproof layer 23 are equipped with guide protrusions 24 by welding. The two sides of the guide protrusions 24 are arc-shaped, which can guide the airflow blowing towards the windproof layer 23 to flow smoothly upward and downward along the arc surface, greatly reducing the direct impact of the wind on the windproof layer 23 and reducing wind resistance.

[0020] Reference Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment: the phase change layer 22 includes a container 221, which is made of oil-resistant silicone with a Shore hardness of 60A or higher to prevent it from reacting with the phase change material. The container 221 is composed of small cavities, which can fix the position of the phase change material, prevent the phase change material from flowing due to thermal expansion and contraction, and reduce the risk of leakage. The container 221 is filled with a phase change material 222, such as paraffin wax, which undergoes an endothermic or exothermic phase change process when the temperature changes, maintaining the relative temperature stability inside the insulation layer 2. The windproof layer 23 includes an outer shell 231, which is set on the outermost layer of the insulation layer 2. The outer shell 231 is filled with... Support bars 232 are fixedly installed. The support bars 232 are staggered and connected in a wave shape. Their cross-sections form staggered triangles with the wall of the outer shell 231. The staggered connection forms a stable three-dimensional frame. The support bars 232 are made of high-density polyethylene material. High-density polyethylene material itself has high strength and toughness and can effectively resist the impact and pressure brought by strong winds, providing solid structural support for the entire insulation device. The gaps between the support bars 232 are filled with heat insulation filler 233. The heat insulation filler 233 is made of ultra-fine glass wool, which has an extremely low thermal conductivity and can effectively block the path of heat transfer through the support bars 232, making up for the thermal bridging effect that the support structure may bring.

[0021] Working Principle: When the condenser 1 is running, the innermost insulation layer 21 takes effect first. The insulation layer 21 is tightly bonded to the outer ring of the condenser 1 with high-temperature resistant double-sided adhesive. With its extremely low thermal conductivity, it directly blocks heat exchange between the condenser 1 and the outer layer, reducing heat loss from the condenser 1 and preventing direct intrusion of low external temperatures. It also prevents excessive heat loss from the phase change layer 22, providing basic insulation for the entire device. As the ambient temperature changes, the phase change layer 22 begins its regulating function. The container 221 separates the phase change layer 222 within a small cavity, preventing overall flow or leakage due to thermal expansion and contraction. When the ambient temperature drops, the phase change layer 222 solidifies and releases latent heat, providing passive heat supply to the condenser 1 and delaying a sudden temperature drop. When the temperature rises, the phase change layer 222 absorbs heat and melts the stored heat. It stores energy to maintain a relatively stable temperature inside the insulation layer 2, preventing the condenser 1 from freezing and being damaged due to excessive temperature fluctuations. When dealing with the impact of wind, the structural design of the windproof layer 23 plays a key role. The smooth outer shell 231, together with the arc-shaped guide protrusions 24 at the top and bottom, guides the airflow blowing towards the device along the arc-shaped surface to split and lead it out in the vertical direction, greatly reducing wind resistance and direct impact force. At the same time, the wavy support strips 232 inside the shell 231 are interlaced to form a triangular three-dimensional frame, which resists strong wind pressure with the high strength of the material and the structural stability. The ultra-fine glass wool filling the gaps between the support strips 232 blocks heat and further enhances the insulation effect. In addition, the insulation cotton material inside the sealing rings 3 at both ends of the insulation layer 2 can reduce heat loss and airflow intrusion at the ends, ensuring the overall sealing and integrity of the protection.

[0022] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content described above. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
