Detailed Description

The invention is described in detail below with reference to the figures and specific embodiments.

Example 1

As shown in fig. 1, a regenerative refrigeration refrigerator includes a refrigerator 3 and a regenerative refrigerator 2, wherein the non-low temperature part of the regenerative refrigerator 2 is covered by a heat insulating material 24, and a heat exchange channel 213a of a cold energy heat exchanger 213 is exposed for cold energy output. Thus, the regenerative refrigerator can be placed in the low-temperature chamber 33 of the refrigerator 3, the non-low-temperature portion does not substantially radiate heat to the low-temperature chamber 33, and the cold heat exchanger 213 absorbs heat from the low-temperature chamber 33 to output cold thereto.

The heat insulating material may be a conventional commercially available heat insulating material such as glass fiber, asbestos, rock wool, etc., and as the cooling temperature decreases, the heat insulating effect of a general heat insulating material (heat insulating material) becomes poor, and vacuum heat insulation may be used instead, or other better heat insulating materials or heat insulating methods may be used.

The regenerative refrigerator 2 used in this embodiment is a pulse tube refrigerator, and the structure of the regenerative refrigerator is shown in fig. 2, which includes a balance block assembly 1 and a refrigerator, wherein, the balance block assembly 1 includes a box 121 and a balance block 111 located in the box, the balance block 111 is connected to a support frame 113 through a spring 112, the support frame 113 is fixed inside the box 121, the balance block 111, the spring 112 and the support frame 113 constitute a vibration system, which is installed in the box 121, the box 121 is provided with an opening 122 and a mounting portion 124, the opening 122 is provided with a cover 123, gas in the box 121 is extracted through the opening 122, the pressure in the box is controlled to be about 0.8 atmosphere, the opening 122 is then sealed through the cover 123, and the pressure in the box is kept at a set. The balance block assembly 1 is fixed with a compressor of the refrigerator 2 through a mounting portion 124. The refrigerator comprises a cold head, a compressor and a pushing piston assembly, wherein the cold head consists of a radiator 211, a heat regenerator 212, a cold energy heat exchanger 213 and a pulse tube 214, and a pulse tube cold end flow equalizer 214a and a pulse tube hot end flow equalizer 214b are arranged at two ends of the pulse tube 214; the compressor is composed of a driving part 221 and a piston 222, a compression chamber 223 in front of the piston outputs power for refrigeration due to the reciprocating motion of the piston 222, the push piston assembly comprises a push piston 231 and a push piston cylinder 232, the driving part 221 is connected with the push piston 231, the push piston 231 and the push piston cylinder 232 form a push piston front chamber 233 which is communicated with the pulse tube 214 to control the air flow therein. The driving part 221 generally has a linear motor and a spring connected to the piston 222, and the compressor is called a linear compressor, and the spring for moving the piston 231 is also in the driving part.

The heat dissipation channel 211a is arranged outside the heat radiator 211 of the regenerative refrigerator 2, and the heat exchange channel 213a is arranged outside the cold quantity heat exchanger 213.

The low-temperature part of the regenerative refrigerator 2 is the part where the cold energy heat exchanger 213 is located, and the rest is the non-low-temperature part.

The heat dissipation of the regenerative refrigerator 2 can be brought elsewhere by a steam refrigerator or a heat pipe or a pump to dissipate the heat. In this embodiment, the heat of the heat radiator 211 of the regenerative refrigerator 2 is taken away by the steam cycle refrigerator 4.

As shown in fig. 3, the vapor cycle refrigerator 4 includes a compressor 411, a high pressure line 412 and a first condenser 421 connected thereto, a second condenser 422, a low pressure line 413 and a first throttle valve 431 and a first evaporator 441 connected thereto. The first condenser 421 and the second condenser 422 are connected to the heat sink 211 and are respectively connected to the heat dissipation passage 211a outside the heat sink 211.

During operation, the compressor 411 compresses low-pressure gas to high pressure, condenses into liquid in the first condenser 421, is heated and evaporated when flowing through the external heat dissipation channel 211a, then condenses into liquid in the second condenser 422, throttles the liquid by the first throttle valve 431 to become low-pressure and low-temperature liquid, absorbs heat in the first evaporator 441, evaporates and outputs cold, and then returns to the compressor 411.

The heat of the regenerative refrigerator 2 is dissipated to the high-pressure condensate through the outer heat dissipation passage 211a, the high-pressure condensate is evaporated into steam, and then re-condensed in the second condenser 422 to dissipate the heat into the atmosphere. The cold energy is output by the heat exchange channel 213a outside the cold energy heat exchanger.

In the above process, the fluid in the high pressure pipeline 412 may not be completely liquid after passing through the first condenser 421, or may not be completely vapor after passing through the outer heat dissipation channel 211a, but should be completely liquid when passing through the second condenser 422, otherwise, the heat exchange area is not sufficient, and the heat exchange area needs to be increased.

The condenser and the evaporator are tube-fin heat exchangers, i.e. the working medium flows in the tubes and the air flows through the fins. The air flow is typically driven by a fan.

The first condenser 421 and the second condenser 422 of the vapor cycle refrigerator 4 may be connected to the radiator 211 in a manner other than the above-described manner, as long as the heat is carried away.

The condenser of the steam cycle refrigerator is divided into two parts, the condensate of the first part of the condenser is used for cooling the radiator of the regenerative refrigerator, so that the heat of the radiator of the regenerative refrigerator with tight height is taken away, the evaporated condensate is condensed at the other part of the condenser again, and the circulation of the steam cycle refrigerator is not influenced. The working medium flow of the steam cycle refrigerator is driven by the compressor, so the heat dissipation capacity is very high, and the problem of difficult heat dissipation of the regenerative refrigerator is easily solved.

Further, the non-low temperature part of the regenerative refrigerator adopting the above structure is wrapped by the heat insulating material 24, and the heat exchange passage 213a outside the cold quantity heat exchanger 213 is exposed to the outside for absorbing heat to output cold quantity to the outside, so that the regenerative refrigerator looks like a heat exchanger and can be placed in any position of the refrigerator to facilitate installation. The tubes for the cooled vapor cycle are conveniently arranged like the tubes of a conventional vapor cycle refrigerator. The steam circulation refrigerator with auxiliary heat dissipation can be a modification of the existing refrigerator of the refrigerator.

The original regenerative refrigerator must place the radiator outside the refrigerator, the cold exchanger inside the low-temperature chamber 33, and the regenerator across the wall of the refrigerator. The length of the regenerator cannot match the thickness of the refrigerator wall, and there is not enough space outside the low-temperature chamber 33 for placing the radiator and the driving part of the regenerative refrigerator. Therefore, the invention greatly changes the difficult problem that the regenerative refrigerator is inconvenient to install due to compact structure.

Example 2

The combined structure of the regenerative refrigerator and the steam cycle refrigerator can also be as shown in fig. 4, two condensers can be combined into one condenser, but the flow channels are separated, that is, the first condenser 421 and the second condenser 422 are the same condenser, the fluid condensed by the condensers enters the heat dissipation channel 211a, returns to the condensers after cooling the heat sinks 211, and enters the first throttle valve 431 after condensation.

The condenser may also be considered as a condenser in which the high pressure fluid line extends from the condenser and then returns to the condenser after being routed to the outer heat sink channel 211 a. The rest is the same as example 1.

Example 3

The combined structure of the regenerative refrigerator and the steam cycle refrigerator can also be as shown in fig. 5, the heat load of the outer heat dissipation channel 211a is small, part of the condensate can flow through the outer heat dissipation channel 211a, the other part of the condensate bypasses the outer heat dissipation channel 211a through the bypass pipeline 414, and the flow is adjusted by the adjusting valve 415 on the bypass pipeline 414, so that the flow resistance can be reduced. The rest is the same as example 1.

Example 4

The combined structure of the regenerative refrigerator and the steam cycle refrigerator can be further shown in fig. 4, as shown in fig. 6, if the heat of the regenerative refrigerator is too large, and all the condensate is evaporated and cannot be completely dissipated, an auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b is added beside the heat dissipation channel 211a of the regenerative refrigerator, namely an auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b is also arranged outside the heat radiator 211, one end of the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b is connected with the second condenser 422, the other end of the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b is connected with the third condenser 423, and the third condenser 423 is connected with the first throttle valve 431; the high-pressure liquid refrigerant after recondensation is returned to the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b of the regenerative refrigerator, and then condensed into liquid by the third condenser 423, and then used for throttling refrigeration. The rest is the same as example 1.

Here, the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b and the heat dissipation channel 211a are arranged in parallel as an external heat dissipation channel of the regenerative refrigerator, and are not communicated with each other.

If the heat productivity of the regenerative refrigerator is too large, a plurality of heat-assisted radiation channels and a plurality of condensers can be arranged. Example 5

The structure of the regenerative refrigerator in combination with the steam cycle refrigerator can also be as shown in fig. 7, the heat load of the second heat exchange channel 211b is not large, a second bypass pipe 416 directly connected to the first throttle valve 431 can be further disposed between the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b and the second condenser 422, and a part of the condensate passes through the second bypass pipe 416, so that a part of the condensate flows through the auxiliary heat dissipation channel 211b, and thus the pressure drop loss is small. Second bypass conduit 416 may have a regulating valve 417 to regulate flow.

In order to produce different cooling temperatures, a second evaporator 442 and, correspondingly, a second throttle 432 can be provided. When the evaporator 441 is operated, the control valves 451 and 452 are opened, and the control valves 453 and 454 are closed. When the second evaporator 442 is operated, the control valves 451 and 452 are closed, and the control valves 453 and 454 are opened. Thus, the two evaporators can work at different evaporating pressures to generate different refrigerating temperatures.

Example 6

As shown in fig. 8, the regenerative refrigerator 2 is powered by a pump 511, and when the regenerative refrigerator is operated, the pump 511 pumps cooling fluid into a heat dissipation channel 211a, and then the cooling fluid dissipates heat to the atmosphere through an air cooler 512, and then returns to the pump 511.

Example 7

As shown in fig. 9, the regenerative refrigerator 2 is cooled by the gravity heat pipe 711, the gravity heat pipe 711 is respectively connected to the heat dissipation channel 211a and the air condenser 712, and during operation, the condensate flows into the heat dissipation channel 211a through the gravity heat pipe 711 to dissipate heat of the regenerative refrigerator 2, then enters the air condenser 712 to be condensed, and then returns to the heat dissipation channel 211 a.

Example 8

As shown in fig. 10, the regenerative refrigerator 2 radiates heat via a heat pipe 611, the heat pipe 611 is connected to the heat radiation channel 211a, and the heat pipe 611 is provided with a heat radiation fin 612. During operation, the heat pipe 611 allows the evaporated vapor to be dissipated into the atmosphere through the heat dissipation fins 612, and the condensate returns to the external heat dissipation channel 211a, thereby completing heat dissipation.
