In other words, the first through hole 161 opens at the wall of the dispensing tube 12 in the first chamber 1111 and the second through hole 162 opens at the wall of the dispensing tube 12 in the second chamber 1112. Since the first through hole 161 corresponds to the first cavity 1231, the second through hole 162 corresponds to the second cavity 1232, and the first cavity 1231 and the second cavity 1232 are spaced apart along the circumference of the distribution pipe 12, the first through hole 161 and the second through hole 162 are staggered along the length direction of the distribution pipe 12, that is, the first through hole 161 and the second through hole 162 are not aligned along the length direction of the distribution pipe 12.
A plurality of heat exchange tubes 14 are arranged along the length direction (the left-right direction shown in fig. 1) of the header 11. Preferably, as shown in fig. 1, the plurality of heat exchange tubes 14 are arranged at regular intervals along the length direction of the header 11, i.e., the distances between the adjacent heat exchange tubes 14 are equal. Each heat exchange tube 14 has a first end (the upper end of the heat exchange tube 14 shown in fig. 1) and an inner cavity, the first end of the heat exchange tube 14 is inserted into the inner cavity of the header 11 through the tube wall of the header 11, and the inner cavity of the heat exchange tube 14 communicates with the inner cavity of the header 11.
During the operation of the heat exchanger 1, the refrigerant may enter the inner cavity of the distribution pipe 12 through the first end of the distribution pipe 12, the refrigerant flows from the first end to the second end in the distribution pipe 12, and the refrigerant may enter the collecting pipe 11 through the through holes 16 on the pipe wall of the distribution pipe 12. The first end of the collecting pipe 11 is provided with an inlet suitable for the distribution pipe 12 to enter, the pipe wall of the distribution pipe 12 is sealed with the inlet of the first end of the collecting pipe 11, the second end of the collecting pipe 11 is closed, a plurality of heat exchange pipes 14 are arranged in the collecting pipe 11, the first ends of the heat exchange pipes 14 penetrate through the pipe wall of the collecting pipe 11, the first ends of the heat exchange pipes 14 are provided with openings so that the inner cavities of the heat exchange pipes 14 are communicated with the inner cavity of the collecting pipe 11, refrigerant in the collecting pipe 11 can enter the inner cavity of the heat exchange pipes 14 through the first ends of the heat exchange pipes 14, and the.
According to the heat exchanger of the embodiment of the present application, by including a plurality of independent cavities 121 in the inner cavity of the distribution pipe 12, mutual interference between the cavities 121 does not occur; by including multiple independent chambers 111 within the interior of the manifold 11, no interference between the chambers occurs. Each cavity 121 is independently communicated with one cavity 111 of the collecting pipe 11, the refrigerant in the distributing pipe 12 can enter different cavities 111 of the collecting pipe 11 through the plurality of independent cavities 121, the cavities 121 and the cavities 111 cannot be affected with each other, the refrigerant enters each cavity 121 from a refrigerant inlet at the first end of the distributing pipe 12, the refrigerant enters different cavities 111 of the collecting pipe 11 through each cavity 121, the refrigerant in each cavity 111 is relatively uniformly distributed, so that the refrigerant is more uniformly distributed in the inner cavity of the collecting pipe 11, the uniformity of the refrigerant entering the plurality of heat exchange pipes 14 is further improved, and the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat exchanger 1 is improved.
In some embodiments, the cross-sectional area of the plurality of cavities 121 is the same. As shown in fig. 3, the length of each cavity 121 is identical to the length of the distribution pipe 12, and the cross-sectional area of each cavity 121 is the same. Thereby, the refrigerant can be uniformly distributed into each cavity 121 at the first end of the distribution pipe 12.
Further, as shown in fig. 3, the cross-sectional area of the header 11 is uniform along the length of the header 11, and the plurality of chambers 111 have the same length. Each cavity 121 is connected to a corresponding chamber 111, the refrigerant in the cavity 121 enters each chamber 111 after being evenly distributed, and the flow rates of the refrigerant in each chamber 111 in the collecting main 11 are the same.
In some embodiments, the heat exchange tubes 14 are arranged in groups spaced along the length of the header 11. The heat exchange tubes 14 in each group are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the collecting main 11, the number of the heat exchange tubes 14 in the multiple groups is the same, and the heat exchange tubes 14 in the multiple groups and the multiple chambers 111 are respectively and correspondingly communicated through multiple groups of through holes 16.
Each chamber 111 corresponds to a set of heat exchange tubes 14 and each chamber 111 communicates with a corresponding set of heat exchange tubes 14. The number of the heat exchange tubes 14 communicated with different chambers 111 is the same, and the heights of the heat exchange tubes 14 extending into the inner cavity of the collecting main 11 are consistent. The refrigerant enters each cavity 121 of the distribution pipe 12 at the inlet of the first end of the distribution pipe 12 and enters the different chambers 111 through each cavity 121. The refrigerant enters the group of heat exchange tubes 14 corresponding to the chamber 111 in the chamber 111, so that the flow of the refrigerant entering the heat exchange tubes 14 communicated with each chamber 111 is the same, and the refrigerant in each chamber 111 is further uniformly distributed, thereby further improving the uniformity of the refrigerant distribution of the heat exchanger 1, fully playing the heat dissipation area of the heat exchange tubes and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat exchanger 1.
In some embodiments, the heat exchange tubes 14 are flat tubes, also referred to in the industry as microchannel flat tubes, and the use of flat tubes is beneficial to reduce the weight and size of the air conditioner. The flat tube is usually provided with a plurality of channels for the flow of refrigerant therein. Adjacent channels are isolated from each other. A plurality of passageways are arranged in a row, influence the width of flat pipe jointly. The flat pipe is flat, and the length and the width of the flat pipe are respectively greater than the width and the thickness of the flat pipe. The length direction of the flat pipe is the flowing direction of the refrigerant determined by the channel in the flat pipe. The length direction of the flat pipe can be a straight line type, a broken line type, a bending type and the like. The flat tube described here is not limited to this type, and may be in other forms. For example, adjacent channels may not be completely isolated. As another example, all of the channels may be arranged in two rows, so long as the width is still greater than the thickness.

The first cavity 1211 communicates with the first chamber 1111 and the second cavity 1212 communicates with the second chamber 1112. The volume of the first cavity 1211 is the same as the volume of the second cavity 1212, and the volume of the first chamber 1111 is the same as the volume of the second chamber 1112.
The second cavity 1212 and the first cavity 1211 extend along the length direction of the distribution tube 12 and have the same volume, so that the cross-sectional areas of the first cavity 1211 and the second cavity 1212 are the same and the flow rate is the same. The refrigerant enters the first and second cavities 1211 and 1212 through the first end of the distribution tube 12.
