In a preferred embodiment, the condensation duct 300 is provided with multiple segments, and the segments are detachably connected to each other by quick connectors 310. The condensation duct 300 has a bent structure in consideration of the structure of the cabinet 100, the positional relationship of the water collection member 200 and the side plate 101. In combination with the foregoing embodiments, the condensation duct 300 is also required to be attached to the condenser 141 and the partition 110, so that the condensation duct 300 is provided in multiple stages and the stages are detachably connected to each other for convenience of assembly. The quick coupling 310 has the advantages of high adaptability and strong universality, and is convenient to assemble and replace and maintain pipe fittings.

In the above embodiments, the condensation duct 300 may be provided in a U-shaped or S-shaped coiled shape to improve heat exchange efficiency.

Referring to fig. 1, the cabinet 100 is provided with a partition 110 to partition the accommodating space into a cold air chamber 120 and a hot air chamber 130, the water collecting member 200 is located below the partition 110, and the condensed water collected in the partition 110 falls into the water collecting member 200.

When the cabinet is operated in summer, the temperature of various devices in the cabinet body 100 is increased too fast due to operation, and the air in the cabinet body 100 needs to be cooled, so that the air in the cold air cavity 120 and the air in the hot air cavity 130 have temperature difference. The temperature of the partition 110 is lower than the dew point temperature, and at this time, the air in the cold air chamber 120 meets the partition 110 to generate condensed water, and the condensed water is collected and falls into the water collecting member 200, so that the condensed water in the water collecting member 200 can be reused. In this embodiment, the partition 110 is provided to separate air having a temperature difference, so as to ensure that various devices in the cabinet operate at a proper temperature.

Dew point (or frost point) temperature, refers to the temperature at which air cools to saturation without changing both the moisture content and the air pressure. In a manner of speaking, the temperature at which water vapor in the air turns into dew is called the dew point temperature. When the air temperature is lower than the dew point temperature, the water vapor in the air can be separated out and condensed into water drops. The higher the dew point temperature, the closer to the air temperature, the more humid the air is. Taking the nominal refrigeration condition of 35 ℃/21 ℃ as an example, the dew point temperature of the state is 13.74 ℃, the surface temperature of the heat exchange tube of the indoor unit of the air conditioner is usually 7-12 ℃, and the surface temperature of the partition 110 in the cold air cavity 120 is probably lower than the dew point temperature of 13.74 ℃ at the temperature, so that condensation is caused.

The partition 110 may be a partition, and the water collecting member 200 may be disposed below the partition and may be configured as a water receiving tray. The piece 200 that catchments is equipped with the mouth that catchments, and the size of catchmenting the mouth should be unanimous with the baffle size at least, avoids the comdenstion water to fall into the piece 200 outside that catchments.

The condensed water collected by the water collecting member 200 is introduced into the condensation pipe 300, and a part of the condensation pipe 300 is attached to the separator 110 to realize heat exchange, so that the temperature of the intermediate separator 110 is higher than the dew point temperature, and the amount of the condensed water generated due to the lower temperature of the separator 110 is reduced. The condenser pipe 300 improves the heat dissipation of the cabinet body 100 and also improves the temperature of the partition 110, and the temperature of the heated condensed water is higher than the dew point temperature after passing through, so that condensation can be effectively avoided, and the service life and the safety of the unit are improved.

Or further, in the above embodiment, the cabinet air conditioner further includes a heat exchanging device 140 for exchanging heat with the air in the cabinet, the heat exchanging device 140 is provided with a heat exchanger, the heat exchanger is disposed in the cold air cavity 120, and at least a part of the heat exchanger is attached to the condensation pipe 300. The heat exchanging device 140 is provided with a compressor, a condenser 141 and an evaporator 142, and when refrigerating, high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the compressor is condensed into liquid in the condenser 141 to release a large amount of heat, and then passes through the evaporator 142 to absorb heat. The condenser 141 is cooled by the air outside the room, and the air outside the room flows in the hot air chamber 130; the air in the indoor side is cooled by the evaporator 142 and flows through the cool air chamber 120. The air at the indoor side is the air in the space where the unit in the cabinet body is located, and the air at the outdoor side is the air in the space outside the unit in the cabinet body. Air at the indoor side may be introduced into the cool air chamber 120 by a blower, and air at the outdoor side may be introduced into the warm air chamber 120 by another blower.

The partition 110 partitions the condenser 141 and the evaporator 142, and the evaporator 142 is in the same space as various devices inside the cabinet 100. In this embodiment, a part of the heat exchangers is attached to the condensation pipe 300, the heat exchangers can be regarded as the condensers 141, and the condensers 141 are cooled by the low-temperature cold energy of the condensed water. Therefore, the condensation pipe 300 can cool the condenser 141 of the heat exchanging device 140 while improving the heat dissipating capability of the cabinet 100, and the energy consumption of the heat exchanging device 140 can be reduced.

In a preferred embodiment, the lower end of the partition 110 is inclined toward the cool air chamber 120 at an angle of 0 to 20 ° from the vertical direction. The spacers 110 are arranged obliquely and at an angle from vertical, the angle being in the range of 0-20 °. The partition 110 serves to isolate the cold wind chamber 120 and the hot wind chamber 130 while allowing condensation to collect. In order to allow the condensed water to flow into the water collecting member 200, the lower end of the partition member 110 is inclined toward the cool air chamber 120, so that the condensed water slowly flows into the water collecting member 200, thereby preventing the condensed water from splashing.

The liquid level accessible level sensor 240 of water collection piece 200 detects, and the liquid level of water collection piece 200 is higher than first threshold value, and it is higher to show the temperature of the cabinet body 100, and heat transfer device 140's operation energy consumption risees gradually, and the comdenstion water in the cabinet body 100 just reaches a certain amount, consequently no longer relies on the hollow structure of curb plate 101 self to make the hot-air rise the discharge, still needs to cool down to the curb plate 101 of the cabinet body 100. The specific value of the first threshold is obtained according to the operation condition of the unit in the cabinet 100, and is also influenced by the structure of the water collecting member 200 itself, and may be determined according to the requirement.

Still further, in the above embodiment, the method further comprises:

presetting that a second threshold is larger than a first threshold;

according to the liquid level of the water collection member 200 being higher than the second threshold value, the condensed water of the water collection member 200 flows into the condensation duct 300, and the water collection member 200 discharges the water to the outside of the cabinet 100 through the water discharge port 220.

In this embodiment, the water collecting member 200 is provided with a second threshold, and the second threshold represents that the liquid level of the water collecting member 200 is slightly higher, which may cause splashing of condensed water, or cause the humidity in the cabinet 100 to be too high, thereby accelerating the damage of the unit or the equipment. Therefore, the liquid level in the water collection member 200 is higher than the second threshold value, and a mode of discharging water from the water collection member 200 to the outside of the cabinet 100 is added in addition to the mode of introducing the condensed water into the condensation duct 300 to cool the side plate 101.

Still further, in the above embodiment, the method further comprises:

presetting that a third threshold value is larger than a second threshold value;

when the liquid level of the water collection member 200 is higher than the third threshold value, the condensed water of the water collection member 200 flows into the condensation duct 300, the overflow vent 230 having the liquid level at the third threshold value drains the water outside the cabinet 100, and a drainage failure indication of the drainage outlet 220 is generated.

In this embodiment, the water collecting member 200 is provided with a third threshold, and the third threshold represents that the liquid level of the water collecting member 200 is higher than a normal level, which may not only cause splashing of condensed water or cause over-high humidity in the cabinet 100, thereby accelerating damage of a unit or equipment, but also represents a drainage failure of the drainage outlet 220. Because the condensed water is introduced into the condensation pipe 300 to cool the side plate 101 when the cabinet 100 is in normal operation, the water collecting member 200 drains water to the outside of the cabinet 100, and the overflow vent 230 drains water to the outside of the cabinet 100, if the three water usage modes are performed simultaneously, the liquid level of the water collecting member 200 hardly exceeds the third threshold value. And if the liquid level in the water collecting piece 200 is higher than the third threshold value, the drainage fault of the water outlet 220 is proved, a drainage fault prompt is generated, and operation and maintenance personnel are reminded to check and maintain in time. Referring to the schematic diagram of fig. 3, the drain fault indication is indicated by the light emitted from the indicator lamp 260.

In a preferred embodiment, the method further comprises the steps of:

a hollow cavity is arranged on a side plate 101 of the cabinet 100;

an air outlet 1011 communicated with the outside is arranged at the top of the hollow cavity;

the gas in the hollow cavity absorbs heat and is exhausted through the air outlet 1011 to dissipate heat;

the condensation duct 300 passes through the hollow chamber to exchange heat with air in the hollow chamber.

In this embodiment, cavity in the curb plate 101 sets up, and the condenser pipe passes cavity in the cavity and realizes the heat transfer, provides the heat transfer cavity for the condenser pipe, can effectively improve heat exchange efficiency.

According to the invention, the cabinet body 100 comprises the hollow side plate 101, the top of the cabinet body is provided with the air outlet 1011, when the temperature in the cabinet body 100 is higher, the temperature of air in the hollow part of the side plate 101 is also raised, because the hot air has the characteristic of upward flow, the hot air is discharged from the air outlet 1011, and then the air with relatively lower temperature enters the side plate 101, so that the heat exchange of the side plate 101 of the cabinet body 100 can be realized, and the purpose of timely heat dissipation is achieved. Moreover, the condensation pipe 300 flowing with the condensed water can have a refrigeration effect on the air in the side plate 101 through the hollow side plate 101, further improve the heat exchange efficiency, and can effectively solve the problem of the scalding of the cabinet body 100.
