Definitions

  • the invention belongs to the field of household appliances, in particular the air conditioners, with a first water tank for receiving the condensed water in the air conditioner, which has a water drain through which the condensate runs in a second water tank, which can be removed from the air conditioner, the drain line Closure is associated with closing the drainage.
  • the air conditioners of the prior art include a refrigeration cycle in which a cooling liquid is circulated.
  • This circuit includes a compressor, an evaporator and a condenser connected in series.
  • a first room air flow is introduced into the interior of the device and passed through the evaporator. This first room air flow is cooled as it passes through the evaporator and fed back to the room to be conditioned.
  • a second room air flow is performed.
  • This second room air flow heats up due to the high temperatures of the condenser in the air conditioner operation. Therefore, the second room air flow is used for heat dissipation from the condenser and is discharged to the outside of the device, not in the room to be air-conditioned, but as exhaust air into an external environment.
  • All elements of the air conditioner are mounted inside the unit with a housing that covers them to prevent the user from accessing parts such as the heat exchangers, the compressor, fans, etc.
  • the evaporator In air conditioner operation, the evaporator is at low temperatures. The room air is mixed with ambient humidity. This moisture condenses as it passes through the evaporator and forms water droplets on the surface of the evaporator, which drain from it and drop into a water collecting container, which is located in the middle part of the household appliance.
  • This middle tank has a pump that conveys the water to a shell that distributes the condensed water over the evaporator to increase the performance of the unit.
  • a pump that conveys the water to a shell that distributes the condensed water over the evaporator to increase the performance of the unit.
  • the water will drain into a tank located in the lower part of the unit.
  • This second container which receives the overflowed from the middle container condensation, is removable and can be pulled out to its emptying. If it is empty, it will be used again.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an air conditioner in which the escape of condensation from the air conditioner is prevented.
  • a household appliance in particular air conditioning unit, with a first water container for receiving the condensed water in the air conditioner, which has a water drain over which the condensate runs in a second water tank, which can be removed from the air conditioner, wherein the drain line is a closure for Associated with closing the water drain, which is associated with an actuating element, which leads the closure in its closed position, when the second container was removed, dissolved.
  • the closure is adjustably mounted in the first water tank, whereby the movement of the closure is controlled with respect to the first container.
  • the closure is connected to the actuator via a closure lever which is rotatably supported in the first container and acts as a hinge which opens and closes the outflow of water from the first container to the second container.
  • the actuating element is designed as an actuating rod, wherein one of its ends is in contact with the closing lever and its other end rests on the second water container and in turn establishes a contact between the second container and the closing lever.
  • the drainage is designed as a drainage pipe, which penetrates into the interior of the first water tank in order to obtain water storage volume in the interior of the second tank.
  • the actuator is guided in a guide tube which penetrates into the interior of the first container, thereby obviating the need to use other types of guides and seals to prevent leakage of water from the first container through the opening, which is necessary therewith the rod reaches the locking lever at its end.
  • the guide tube projects beyond the water drain at a distance so that the water level in the tank will in each case reach the height of the drain rather than its height.
  • the shutter rests in its closed position on the drain and hermetically seals it with the help of a spring that presses the shutter to the drain.
  • a control device of the air conditioner includes a sensor that detects the removal of the second water tank from the air conditioner. This control device of the air conditioner interrupts the air conditioner operation, when the second water tank from the Air conditioner was removed, whereby unintended operation of the device without the second container are avoided.
  • the first water tank is associated with a pump that conveys the recorded condensed water to a sprinkler for a condenser of the air conditioner.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of an air conditioner with heat exchangers, i. an evaporator 1 and a condenser 3, which are connected in series in a coolant circuit, not shown.
  • a fan not shown
  • a room air flow I is passed through the evaporator 1, as shown in the arrow direction. This first room air flow I is cooled when passing through the evaporator 1 and fed back to the room to be conditioned.
  • a second room air flow II is guided, which is moved by a second blower, not shown.
  • This second room air flow II heats up due to the high temperatures of the condenser 3 operating the condenser 3.
  • the second room air flow II therefore serves to dissipate heat from the condenser 3 and is discharged to the outside of the device, not in the room to be air conditioned, but as exhaust air into an external environment ,
  • the evaporator 1 In air conditioner operation, the evaporator 1 is at low temperatures. The room air I is mixed with ambient humidity. This moisture condenses as it passes through the evaporator and forms condensation droplets 5 on the surface of the evaporator, which run off and drip into the drip tray 7.
  • the collected in the drip tray 7 condensed water 5 is a Connecting channel 15 passed to a water tank 17.
  • the water tank 17 is in communication with a derivative 19.
  • the condensate 5 of the water tank 17 can be performed from the air conditioner.
  • the derivative 19 is closed by a locking member 23.
  • the condensate from the water tank 17 are also passed to a second water tank 25.
  • the second water tank 25 can be removed from the air conditioner.
  • the condensed water collected in the water tank 17 can be fed via a pump 27 through a pipe 43 to a sprinkling channel or a distribution tray 29.
  • the distributor shell 29 is arranged above the capacitor 3. It has at its bottom side openings which allow a uniform distribution of condensate over the condenser 3.
  • the condensate distributed over the condenser 3 evaporates due to the high temperatures of the evaporator 3. This increases the heat dissipation from the evaporator 3 to the room air flow II.
  • the evaporator 3 is assigned a collecting tray 31. Into the drip tray 31 drips the condensed water, which is not vaporized at the evaporator 3.
  • the drip tray 31 of the evaporator 3 is in fluid communication with the water tank 17th
  • the second water tank 25 is removable from the air conditioner for its emptying. To prevent condensation from dripping onto the floor of the body of the air conditioner, the following two measures have been taken: first, the controller 22 shuts down a compressor of the refrigeration cycle, not shown in the figures, and the pump 27 when the sensor 21 detects that the second water tank 25 is taken out. As a second safety measure, a closure 45 is provided according to FIG. This shutter 45 closes the drain pipe 18 when the second water tank 25 is taken out.
  • the shutter 45 does not exist, there is a risk that the water will continue to accumulate in the drip trays 7 and 31 running into the first water tank 17 even if the compressor and the pump 27 are turned off. As a result, the water level in the first water tank 17 would rise to the overflow of the drain pipe 18 and drop to the bottom of the device.
  • the closure 45 is shown in Figure 2 in its open position and formed in a Z-shaped locking lever 47.
  • the shutter lever 47 is rotatably attached to an inner side of the first water tank 17 by means of a first arm 48. On the first arm 48, the shutter 45 is also arranged.
  • a spring 49 pushes the shutter 45 toward its closed position.
  • the spring 49 is located between the first arm 48 and a cover of the first water tank 17.
  • a second Am 50 des Locking lever 47 is in contact with an operating rod 51 which is in a vertical position. In Figure 2, the actuating rod 51 pushes the shutter 45 by overcoming the force of the spring 49 in its open position.
  • the actuating rod 51 is guided in a height-adjustable guide tube 52.
  • a lower end 53 of the actuating rod 51 is supported on a side edge 54 of the second removable water container 25.
  • the lower end of the rod 51 carries a stop surface 55 which has an inclined position forming an angle of approximately 45 °.
  • FIG. 3 shows the second water tank 25 removed from the air conditioner.
  • the operating rod 51 is shifted downward.
  • the spring 49 presses the shutter 45 in its closed position.
  • the water level may continue to rise above the overflow 20 to the upper end 56 of the guide tube 52, with a height difference x.
  • the height difference x is about 3 to 6 cm. Only when the water reaches the upper end 56 of the guide tube 52 could it drip onto the bottom of the device if the end of the second arm 50 could not close the opening of the guide tube.
