Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioner filter cartridge cleaning devices, and in particular to an energy-saving air conditioner filter cartridge cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette manufacturers use modular air conditioning systems to regulate the temperature and humidity of their workshops. Air filters are typically installed at the front end of these systems to filter the air. After a period of use, these filters become dirty and need to be removed, rinsed with water, and dried before reuse. Traditional cleaning methods primarily involve manual cleaning with tap water. Personnel usually use handheld water guns to clean the filters. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also fails to clean the inner walls of the filters, resulting in poor cleaning effectiveness and wasting water.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an air conditioner filter cleaning device that can overcome the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an energy-saving air conditioner filter cleaning device, which overcomes the above-mentioned defects of the prior art.

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An energy-saving air conditioner filter cleaning device, comprising:

[0007] An air conditioner is equipped with a sprayer, which is connected to tap water through a second water pipe and a first water pipe. The rear of the sprayer is connected to a water collection tank, which is used to collect spray water that is not absorbed by the air supply of the air conditioner.

[0008] A water tank is connected to the bottom of the water collection pool via a fourth water pipe, and the water tank is also connected to tap water via a water supply pipe.

[0009] A cleaning mechanism includes a water tank, a support frame, and at least one set of cleaning units. The support frame is disposed within the water tank. Each cleaning unit includes a turntable, an inner spray nozzle, an outer spray nozzle, and multiple positioning rods. The turntable is rotatably mounted on the support frame. The positioning rods are evenly distributed on the turntable. The inner spray nozzle passes through the center of the turntable, and the outer spray nozzle is located on the outer side of the turntable. The water sprayed by the inner spray nozzle forms a preset angle with the inner wall of the filter cartridge, and the water sprayed by the outer spray nozzle forms a preset angle with the outer wall of the filter cartridge. A floor drain is provided at the bottom of the water tank, and the floor drain is connected to a sewer system via a drain pipe. A conductivity meter is installed on the drain pipe.

[0010] A water circulation mechanism includes a water pump, the input end of which is connected to the water tank, and the output end of which is connected to the inner spray and the outer spray via water pipes, respectively, for providing a water source for the cleaning mechanism.

[0011] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the air conditioner is further provided with a water baffle, the bottom end of which is connected to the water collection tank so as to allow the blocked spray water to flow into the water collection tank.

[0012] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the second water pipe is provided with a first valve near the sprayer, and the first valve is used to control the water inlet of the sprayer in the air conditioner.

[0013] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the supplementary water pipeline includes a third water pipe, which is connected to the tap water supply through the first water pipe, and a second valve is provided on the third water pipe for controlling the water inlet of the water tank.

[0014] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the water pump is connected to the inner spray and the outer spray via a fifth water pipe, and a third valve is provided on the fifth water pipe to control the water intake of the inner spray and the outer spray.

[0015] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the outer edge of the turntable is greater than or equal to the outer edge of the opening of the filter cartridge.

[0016] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the fourth water pipe is equipped with a filter for filtering the water flowing from the water collection pool to the water tank.

[0017] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] This invention relates to a filter cartridge cleaning device that can simultaneously clean multiple filter cartridges. Each filter cartridge mounting position has a turntable that can rotate freely. Three positioning rods are installed on the turntable according to the size of the filter cartridge, facilitating installation, disassembly, and fixation of the cartridge. The positioning rods also prevent the cartridge from tilting during rotation. An inner spray nozzle is located in the center of the turntable, while an outer spray nozzle is installed on the outer side. The water sprayed from the inner and outer spray nozzles is at a certain angle to the inner surface of the filter cartridge, and the water sprayed from the outer spray nozzles is at a certain angle to the outer wall of the filter cartridge. The water from both nozzles cleans the inner and outer walls of the filter cartridge separately. Furthermore, the impact force of the water flow causes the filter cartridge to rotate while being cleaned. This allows for continuous cleaning of different parts of the filter cartridge simultaneously during rotation, improving cleaning efficiency and eliminating the need for manual cleaning, thus reducing labor intensity. Furthermore, the device uses a combined air conditioning humidifier sprayer to humidify the supplied air, collecting the spray water that is not absorbed by the supplied air as a cleaning water source for the filter cartridge. Tap water is only added when the water volume is insufficient, thereby saving water resources. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the present invention and, together with their description, serve to explain the principles of the present invention.

[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the energy-saving air conditioning filter cleaning device of this application.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0023] The usage process of this energy-saving air conditioner filter cleaning device is as follows:

[0024] Tap water enters the sprayer 8 inside the air conditioner 5 through the first water pipe 1, the second water pipe 2, and the first valve 3. The tap water is sprayed from the nozzles on the sprayer 8, forming a water mist that enters the air supply within the air conditioner 5. Some of the water mist is absorbed by the air supply, increasing its humidity. A water collection tank 10 is installed behind the sprayer 8 at the bottom of the air conditioner 5. Water mist or droplets that are not absorbed by the air supply fall into the water collection tank 10 under gravity, or are blocked by the baffle plate 9 before falling into the water collection tank 10. Because the air supply is filtered by the front-end filter device with numerous filter cartridges, the air supply is relatively clean, and therefore the spray water falling into the water collection tank 10 is also relatively clean. The water in the water collection tank 10 can then enter the water tank 7 through the fourth water pipe 11 and the filter 12. The water in the water tank 7 can then be used for cleaning the air conditioner filter cartridges. When the water level in water tank 7 is low and the water volume is insufficient, the second valve 6 is opened. At this time, tap water enters water tank 7 through the first water pipe 1, the third water pipe 4, and the second valve 6 to replenish the water tank, thereby preventing insufficient water volume for filter cartridge cleaning and saving tap water for cleaning.

[0025] The air conditioner 5 has a large number of filter cartridges installed at its front end to filter dust and impurities in the air supply. After a period of operation, the filter cartridges need to be disassembled and cleaned before reuse. This application designs a water tank 16 at the filter cartridge cleaning area to prevent water splashing and overflowing during cleaning. A support 17 is designed inside the water tank 16. The support 17 can be made of materials such as channel steel or angle iron. Two turntables 22 are designed on the support to hold the filter cartridges. The outer edge of the turntables 22 is greater than or equal to the outer edge of the filter cartridge opening. Three positioning rods 20 are evenly distributed on the two turntables 22. Each turntable 22 has a central hole through which the inner spray nozzle 19 passes. Before cleaning the filter cartridges, the filter cartridges 18 are fitted onto the three positioning rods 20, passing precisely through the inner spray nozzle 19. An outer spray nozzle 21 is also present on the outer side of the filter cartridge 18. The filter cartridge 18 has rows of vertical spray holes on its inner spray 19 and outer spray 21, and the water sprayed from these holes forms a certain angle with the side of the filter cartridge 18. This application... Figure 1 There are two sets of cleaning units. Since they have the same structure, only one set is described above to avoid going into detail.

[0026] When cleaning the filter cartridge, the water pump 13 starts running. The water in the water tank 7 is pressurized by the water pump 13 and then enters the inner spray 19 and the outer spray 21 through the third valve 14 and the fifth water pipe 15, respectively. The high-pressure water jet can clean the inside and outside of at least one filter cartridge 18 at the same time. Moreover, the filter cartridge 18 starts to rotate with the turntable 2222 under the action of the high-pressure water jet. In this way, water is sprayed and cleaned at the same time. The filter cartridge rotates at the same time, which can clean the inside and outside of the filter cartridge at the same time. This avoids the situation where you need to hold a water gun around the filter cartridge or manually reverse the filter cartridge when cleaning manually. It also avoids the situation where you only clean the outside of the filter cartridge manually, making the filter cartridge cleaning more comprehensive and thorough.

[0027] When the filter cartridge 18 rotates, the positioning rod 20 can position and fix the filter cartridge 18 to prevent it from tilting during rotation. A floor drain 23 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 16. The water used to rinse the filter cartridges collects in the water tank 16 and then flows into the drain pipe 24 and into the sewer 26 through the floor drain 23. A conductivity meter 25 is installed on the drain pipe 24. The conductivity meter 25 can continuously detect the conductivity value of the water after rinsing the filter cartridges. When the conductivity meter 25 detects a high conductivity of the water in the drain pipe 24, it indicates that the filter cartridges are not yet clean. When the conductivity meter 25 detects a low conductivity of the water in the drain pipe 24, it indicates that the filter cartridges are clean. This allows for timely cessation of rinsing or replacement of the next two filter cartridges that need rinsing, thus saving rinsing water.

[0028] This invention can be designed to clean two filter cartridges at a time, or to clean more filter cartridges at a time. Of course, this application is not limited to this; those skilled in the art can design multiple filter cartridges and supporting devices as needed.

[0029] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various different choices and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
