Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and more particularly to water-assisted cooling air conditioners. [Background technology]

[0002] In conventional mobile air conditioners equipped with an evaporator and a condenser, a large amount of heat is released when the refrigerant condenses in the condenser, thereby raising the condenser's temperature and heating the surrounding air. Because the temperature of the air heated by the condenser is high, an exhaust pipe must be installed to exhaust the hot air outdoors, and the exhaust pipe must penetrate walls, windows, etc., restricting the movement of the air conditioner. Furthermore, excessively high condenser temperatures are detrimental to the air conditioner's energy-saving operation and service life extension, and may even cause it to stop working. To solve this problem, existing mobile air conditioners typically wet the condenser with water by showering or spraying it with water, utilizing the heat-absorbing properties of water evaporation to lower the condenser's temperature.

[0003] However, when directly wetting the condenser with water, the finite surface area of ​​the water droplets limits the evaporation efficiency, and the latent heat of evaporation of the water cannot be utilized to a large extent, so the temperature of the entire condenser cannot be effectively lowered, which results in a poor cooling effect.In addition, when the water droplets hit the radiator at high speed when wet, noise is generated, which degrades the user experience.

[0004] Therefore, how to design a water-assisted cooling air conditioner that can not only effectively reduce the temperature of the radiator but also avoid noise generation and improve the user experience is a technical problem that designers and developers must solve.

Therefore, changes or adjustments to their relative relationships are considered within the practicable scope of the present invention, even if there is no substantial change in the technical content.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the description of the present invention are used only for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0032] The present invention aims to propose a water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 that not only effectively reduces the temperature of the radiator 222 but also avoids noise generation and improves the user experience. As shown in Figures 1 and 4, the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 includes a housing 100, a cooling unit 200, and an auxiliary cooling unit 300, where the cooling unit 200 and the auxiliary cooling unit 300 are housed within the housing 100, and the cooling unit 200 includes a cool air unit 210, a hot air unit 220, and a compressor 230.

[0033] As shown in Figures 2 and 4-6, the cooling air unit 210 includes a first spiral shell 211, an evaporator 212, and a condenser fan 213. The first spiral shell 211 has a first air inlet 2111 and a first air outlet 2112. The condenser fan 213 is disposed within the first spiral shell 211 and is used to drive air into a flowing state. The evaporator 212 is disposed at the first air inlet 2111 or the first air outlet 2112.

[0034] When the air conditioner is operating, the evaporator 212 functions as a heat sink, absorbing heat from the surrounding air through the evaporation of the liquid refrigerant to lower the temperature of the surrounding air, thereby achieving cooling. Room temperature air is blown by the condensing fan 213 and passes through the evaporator 212, where it is cooled to form cool air, which then passes through the first air inlet 2111 and the first air outlet 2112 and is discharged to the outside environment; alternatively, the room temperature air is blown by the condensing fan 213 and passes through the first air inlet 2111 and the first air outlet 2112, where it is discharged through the first air outlet 2112 and passes through the evaporator 212 to form cool air under the cooling action of the evaporator 212, which is then discharged to the outside environment.

[0035] The hot air unit 220 includes a second spiral shell 221, a radiator 222, and a heat-dissipating fan 223. The second spiral shell 221 has a second air inlet 2211 and a second air outlet 2212. The heat-dissipating fan 223 is disposed within the second spiral shell 221 and is used to drive the air into a flowing state. The radiator 222 is disposed at the second air inlet 2211 or the second air outlet 2212.

[0036] When the air conditioner is operating, the radiator 222 functions as a heat dissipation device, releasing internal heat to the air in the external environment through condensation of the gaseous refrigerant, raising the temperature of the surrounding air and thereby achieving heating. Room-temperature air is blown by the heat dissipation fan 223 and passes through the radiator 222, where it forms hot air under the heat dissipation action of the radiator 222. The hot air then passes through the second air inlet 2211 and the second air outlet 2212, and is discharged to the external environment. Alternatively, the room-temperature air is blown by the heat dissipation fan 223 and passes through the second air inlet 2211 and the second air outlet 2212, where it then passes through the radiator 222, where it forms hot air under the heat dissipation action of the radiator 222, and is then discharged to the external environment. The radiator 222 is connected to the evaporator 212 via the compressor 230. The compressor 230 provides the power necessary to circulate the refrigerant fluid.

[0037] For ease of explanation and understanding, the following description will be given taking as an example a structure in which the evaporator 212 is installed at the first air inlet 2111 and the radiator 222 is installed at the second air inlet 2211.

[0038] As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the auxiliary cooling device 300 includes a water distribution unit 310 and a water absorber 320. The water distribution unit 310 supplies the liquid required for evaporation to the water absorber 320, which is coupled to the radiator 222. The liquid on the water absorber 320 evaporates and absorbs heat, thereby lowering the temperature of the radiator 222. The liquid required for evaporation can be water. Water has a high evaporation potential, carries away a large amount of heat during evaporation, and is safe and does not pollute the environment. The following description will be given taking the case where the liquid required for evaporation is water as an example.

[0039] The absorbent body 320 is made of a material with internal capillaries or a loose porous material, in which case water is actively and quickly absorbed into the absorbent body 320 through capillary action, and the large surface area and complex spatial structure allow water to be effectively stored inside the absorbent body 320, thereby ensuring high water absorption efficiency and preventing leakage, while maintaining good breathability and avoiding obstructions to air flow.

[0040] The following will explain the working principle of the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 according to the present invention in conjunction with the above structure, as shown in Figures 1-6.

[0041] When using the air conditioner, the user turns on the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10, which activates the condensing fan 213, the radiator fan 223, and the water distribution unit 310. A portion of the room-temperature air blown by the condensing fan 213 passes through the evaporator 212, where it exchanges heat to produce cool air, thereby providing cooling and providing cool air to the user. A portion of the room-temperature air blown by the radiator fan 213 passes through the radiator 222, where it exchanges heat to produce hot air.

[0042] As the hot air unit 220 continues to operate, the temperature of the radiator 222 continues to accumulate, leading to the radiator 222 becoming too hot, which is detrimental to the air conditioner's energy conservation and service life extension, and may even cause it to stop working. The water distribution unit 310 of the present invention uses the heat absorption properties of liquid evaporation to lower the temperature of the radiator 222. Specifically, the water distribution unit 310 supplies water to the water absorber 320, which is attached to the radiator 222 to store water inside the water absorber 320. As the water evaporates, it also carries away some of the heat from the radiator 222, thereby achieving a temperature drop. This prevents the temperature of the air blown out through the radiator 222 from becoming too high.

[0043] It should be understood that the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 of the present invention has the following advantages over the current technology:

[0044] First, the uniform distribution of water within the water absorber 320 significantly increases the contact area between the water and the air, thereby improving the efficiency of water evaporation and making full use of the latent heat of water evaporation, thereby effectively lowering the temperature of the radiator 222.

[0045] Second, by providing a water absorber 320 and having the water distribution unit 310 supply water to the water absorber 320, the problem in the current technology that water droplets hit the radiator at high speed when wet, causing noise, is effectively solved, improving the user experience.

[0046] Third, the water vapor formed by evaporating the water in the water absorber 320 is discharged to the outside environment together with the hot air, which increases the humidity of the indoor air, effectively solves the problem of dry indoor air, and improves the user experience.

[0047] The Japanese utility model patent (publication number: JP3243784U, name: air conditioning system) includes an air conditioning device having a compressor 11, an evaporator, and a condenser 13 connected to each other; a drain pan arranged on one side of the evaporator to receive condensed water from the evaporator; a water distribution module including a water distribution housing and a water distribution member, the water distribution member being incorporated into the water distribution housing to form a water flow passage, so that the condensed water enters the water distribution member and flows out evenly through the water flow passage; a pleated water absorbent body 40 arranged on one side of the water distribution housing to absorb the condensed water flowing out from the water distribution housing; a water tank 50 arranged on the bottom side of the pleated water absorbent body to receive the condensed water flowing out from the pleated water absorbent body; and at least one fan 60 arranged on one side of the pleated water absorbent body, the condenser including at least one fan located between the at least one fan and the pleated water absorbent body. This utility model not only processes condensation water generated in the evaporator, preventing problems caused by dripping, but also allows the condensation water to evaporate effectively into the environment. However, in this air conditioning system, by installing a pleated water absorbent in the condenser, the air passes only through the condenser and then through the pleated water absorbent, and at this time the latent heat of evaporation of the water is not fully used to cool the condenser, but part of it is discharged to the outside environment along with the airflow, so the latent heat of the water cannot be fully utilized.

[0048] The present invention solves the above problems by making a special design to avoid its disadvantages compared with the above prior art.

[0049] 2 and 7-8, a plurality of heat sinks 222 are provided, with a gap between two adjacent heat sinks 222, and a water absorber 320 is provided between the two adjacent heat sinks 222. Both sides of the water absorber 320 can be in close contact with the heat sinks 222, and all the air passing through the heat sinks 222 passes through the water absorber 320, ensuring efficient evaporation of the liquid on the water absorber 320.

[0050] It should be emphasized that, compared with the current technology, the water absorber 320 of the present invention makes full use of the latent heat of evaporation of water through the special design described above, thereby effectively ensuring the cooling effect of the water absorber 320 on the radiator 222.

[0051] In operation, the water absorber 320 requires the water distribution unit 310 to replenish the liquid required for evaporation, and the water distribution unit 310 may employ various water delivery methods. The following lists three different water delivery methods as representative examples. [Example]

[0052] As shown in FIG. 5, the water distribution unit 310 comprises a support-type water tank 311 and a water pump 312, the water pump 312 is used to periodically replenish the liquid in the support-type water tank 311, the water absorber 320 absorbs the liquid required for evaporation from the support-type water tank 311, and at least a portion of the water absorber 320 protrudes into the support-type water tank 311.

[0053] As can be seen, evaporating the water in the water absorber 320 and then having the water absorber 320 spontaneously absorb water from the support-type water tank 311 keeps the water absorber 320 constantly moist, ensuring a cooling effect on the radiator 222, and simplifying the structure to make it less susceptible to breakage. The water pump 312, which is set to alternately start and stop during normal operation, periodically replenishes water in the support-type water tank 311, thereby ensuring that there is always water in the support-type water tank 311 and extending the service life of the water pump 312. A sensor device (not shown) that may be installed in the support-type water tank 311 can control the operation of the water pump 312 when it detects that the water level in the support-type water tank 311 is low, thereby avoiding waste of resources due to overflowing water in the support-type water tank 311 or short circuits in electrical components in the air conditioner caused by moisture. [Example]

[0054] As shown in Figures 5-6, the water distribution unit 310 has a water sprinkler 313 and a water pump 312. The water pump 312 is used to send the evaporated liquid to the water sprinkler 313, and the water sprinkler 313 is used to spray the liquid onto the water absorbent 320. In this way, rapid water supply to the water absorbent 320 can be achieved, shortening the time it takes for the water absorbent 320 to change from dry to wet, and allowing the water sprinkler 313 to be uniformly wetted with water, ensuring stable temperature reduction.

[0055] The sprinkler member 313 has a plurality of through holes (not shown), through which water is sprayed onto the water absorbing body 320. When the amount of water is sufficient, one or more narrow gaps (not shown) are provided on the sprinkler member 313, in which case the water is sprayed evenly onto the water absorbing body 320. Similar to the embodiment in which the water distribution unit 310 has a support-type water tank 311, in this case the water supply pump 312 is also set to alternately start and stop. A sensor device that may be installed near the water absorbing body 320 can control the water supply pump 312 to operate when it detects that the water absorbing body 320 is drying out.

[0056] In Methods 1 and 2, as shown in FIG. 6 , the auxiliary cooling device 300 includes a water tank 330, and the water distribution unit 310 includes a water tray 315. The water tray 315 is located below the evaporator 212 and serves to collect condensation water that falls from the evaporator 212 during cooling operation and introduce it into the water tank 330. The water pump 312 then sends the water in the water tank 330 to the portable water tub 311 or the sprinkler member 313, so that the user only needs to periodically refill the water tank 330, improving the user experience. Furthermore, the installation of the water tray 315 serves to prevent short circuits caused by moisture in the electrical components within the air conditioner, ensuring safe and stable operation of the equipment, and also solves the problem of condensation water dripping outside and soaking floors and walls, damaging decorations, and breeding bacteria. Furthermore, introducing the condensed water into the water tank 330 allows the condensed water to be collected and reused, eliminating the need for users to throw away the condensed water, improving the user experience. [Example]

[0057] As shown in Figure 5, the water distribution unit 310 includes a water collection tank 314 and a water pump 312. The water collection tank 314 is located below the evaporator 212 and is used to collect condensation water generated during cooling operation of the evaporator 212, and the water pump 312 is used to deliver the condensation water onto the water absorbent 320. This eliminates the need for the user to manually add water, improving the user experience. Specifically, the water distribution unit 310 includes a spray element, and the water pump 312 delivers water to the spray element, which then turns the water into small droplets and sprays them onto the water absorbent 320. In this way, even when the amount of water is small, water can be sprayed evenly onto the water absorbent 320, thereby ensuring a cooling effect.

[0058] Furthermore, the water absorber 320 is prone to collecting dust after long-term use and therefore needs to be cleaned periodically. To make it easier for users to remove the water absorber 320, in another embodiment, the water absorber 320 has a frame (not shown), a fastening structure is provided on the frame, and the water absorber 320 is detachably mounted between two adjacent heat sinks 222 through the fastening structure. This makes it easier for users to remove the water absorber 320, thereby facilitating cleaning or replacing the water absorber 320. In addition, the frame supports the water absorber 320 to prevent deformation during use, thereby preventing deformation from pressing down on the capillaries or pores in the water absorber 320 and affecting its water absorption effect.

[0059] In addition to the above-described method in which the water absorber 320 is disposed between two adjacent heat sinks 222, the water absorber 320 may also be embedded within the heat sink 222. Specifically, in an embodiment not shown, the heat sink 222 has a heat sink pipe and a plurality of plate fins, with the plate fins surrounding the heat sink pipe, and the water absorber 320 disposed between the two adjacent plate fins. The provision of the plurality of plate fins increases the surface area of ​​the heat sink 222 and enhances the heat dissipation effect of the heat sink 222. Furthermore, by disposing the water absorbers 320 between two adjacent heat sinks 222, the number of water absorbers 320 can be increased, thereby increasing the surface area of ​​the water absorbers 320, accelerating water evaporation, and ensuring a temperature-reducing effect. It should be understood that the method of replenishing the water absorber 320 with water in the embodiment in which the water absorber 320 is disposed between two adjacent heat sinks 222 as described above is equally applicable to this embodiment, and will not be repeated here for simplicity's sake.

[0060] 3 and 5-6 , a cold air inlet 110 is provided on the housing 100 corresponding to the first air inlet 2111, a hot air inlet 120 is provided corresponding to the second air inlet 2211, a cold air outlet 130 is provided corresponding to the first air outlet 2112, and a hot air outlet 140 is provided corresponding to the second air outlet 2212. The external air blown by the condensing fan 213 enters the inside of the housing 100 through the cold air inlet 110, passes through the evaporator 212, and generates cold air under the cooling effect of the evaporator 212. The cold air then enters the first spiral shell 211 through the first air inlet 2111, exits from the first air outlet 2112, and is subsequently discharged to the outside environment through the cold air outlet 130. The external air blown by the heat dissipation fan 223 enters the inside of the housing 100 through the hot air inlet 120, passes through the heat sink 222 and the water absorber 320, and generates hot air under the combined action of the heat sink 222 and the water absorber 320. The hot air then enters the second spiral shell 221 through the second air inlet 2211, flows out through the second air outlet 2212, and is then discharged to the external environment through the hot air outlet 140, thereby adjusting the temperature of the external environment.

[0061] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1-2 , the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 further includes a control unit 400. The control unit 400 includes a control circuit board 410 and an operation panel 420. The control circuit board 410 is electrically connected to the cooling unit 200, the auxiliary cooling unit 300, and the operation panel 420, which is mounted on the housing 100. A user can use the operation panel 420 to control the on / off states of the auxiliary cooling unit 300 and the cooling unit 200, respectively, thereby controlling the on / off operation of the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10, thereby improving the user experience. Specifically, the operation panel 420 is provided with buttons (not shown) for the auxiliary cooling unit 300 and the cooling unit 200, which may be mechanical buttons or touch buttons.

[0062] Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5-6, the control unit 400 may further include a protective shell 430, in which the control circuit board 410 is housed, thereby protecting the control circuit board 410 from moisture damage and thus preventing its service life from being affected.

[0063] Preferably, as shown in Fig. 1-2, omnidirectional casters 150 are provided at the bottom of the housing 100, and the omnidirectional casters 150 are used to move the housing 100. In this way, the user can easily move the housing 100, which makes it convenient for the user to move the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10 to any position desired by the user, and facilitates adjustment to the position of the water-assisted cooling air conditioner 10.

[0064] In summary, the water-assisted cooling type air conditioner 10 of the present invention not only effectively reduces the temperature of the radiator 222, but also avoids noise generation, improving the user experience.

[0065] The above-described embodiments are merely explanations of some embodiments of the present invention, and although the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the patent scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make some modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, all of which are included in the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be governed by the appended claims. [Explanation of symbols]
