Definitions
- the present invention relates to a condensation device for a drier.
- the condensation device comprises a heat exchanging unit, a positioning frame and a connector.
- the three components are mutually connected.
- the heat exchanging unit comprises at least one drying air channel formed from a heat conductive material, and at least one cooling air channel is disposed at one side of the drying air channel.
- driers are household appliances including driers solely used for drying clothes and driers with multiple functions, such as a washer-drier.
- a drier is usually equipped with a condensation device for moisture removal by condensing drying air containing steam from a rotating barrel.
- One type of condensation device comprises a heat exchanging unit composed of a drying air channel and a cooling air channel, which are separated by a heat isolation board made from a highly heat-conductive material.
- a heat exchanging unit composed of a drying air channel and a cooling air channel, which are separated by a heat isolation board made from a highly heat-conductive material.
- the drying air from the rotating barrel passes through the drying air channel, and external air passes through the cooling air channel.
- heat exchange occurs via the heat dissipation unit and the heat isolating board.
- the temperature of the drying air is reduced and the air-borne moisture is condensed and separated from the drying air.
- the drying air channel and the cooling air channel are usually connected by a plurality of sheet members which are fixed by a positioning frame disposed at the end of each sheet member.
- the positioning frame is usually connected to a connector and further connected to air channels via the connector.
- the heat exchanging unit and the connector are respectively connected to the positioning frame, such that three components are mutually connected via the positioning frame.
- the heat exchanging unit is not directly connected to the connector. The connection between the three components requires two steps to complete: connecting the positioning frame to the heat exchanging units or the connector first, and then connecting the other component to the positioning frame.
- An objective of the present invention is to provide a condensation device for a drier that is easy to assemble.
- a condensation device for a drier of the present invention comprising a heat exchanging unit, a positioning frame and a connector.
- the heat exchanging unit comprises at least one drying air channel formed from a heat conductive material and at least one cooling air channel at one side of the drying air channel.
- the positioning frame comprises a set of through holes connected to the drying air channel, and the connector and the drying air channel are connected.
- the connector has a containment slot for receiving the positioning frame.
- the positioning frame, the connector and the heat exchanging unit are mutually fixed by direct connection. Because the positioning frame, the connector and the heat exchanging unit are mutually fixed by direct connection, the three components are fixed together in a single step and the manufacturing process is simplified.
- the heat exchanging unit has a first connecting slot and a second connecting slot adjacent to an opening of the drying air channel, and side walls of the positioning frame and the connector extend into the first connecting slot and the second connecting slot.
- the condensation device for a drier further comprises two positioning frames and connectors. Two side boards are respectively disposed at two sides of the drying air channel, and one set of heat dissipation units is sandwiched in a space formed by the side boards and the drying air channel. A space adjacent to the opening of the drying air channel not occupied by the heat dissipation unit provides the first connecting slot and the second connecting slot. The side walls of the positioning frames and the connectors block the first connecting slot and the second connecting slot to form a cooling air channel enclosed by the side boards and the side walls of the drying air channel, wherein air is allowed to pass through the heat dissipation unit.
- the condensation device for a drier further comprises two drying air channels, and the set of heat dissipation units is sandwiched between the two drying air channels.
- a third connecting slot is formed adjacent to the opening of the drying air channels, and the positioning frame has a seal strip extending into the third connecting slot and blocking the third connecting slot to form a third cooling air channel enclosed by the drying air channels.
- the seal strip of the positioning frame and the side walls of the positioning frame are connected by ribs and through holes are formed between the ribs.
- FIG. 1 is a structural schematic view of a drier
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of the components in a condensation device
- FIG.3 is a partial cross-sectional view of a heat exchanging unit, a positioning frame and a connector assembled
- FIG.4 is a partial cross-sectional view of a heat exchanging unit, a positioning frame and a connector separated.
- a drier 1 comprises an outer barrel 2, a rotating barrel 3 optionally installed inside the outer barrel 2, a first air channel 4 for connecting a condensation device 5 with the outer barrel 2, a second air channel 6 for connecting the condensation device 5 with a fan 7 and a drying tunnel 8 connected with the other end of the fan 7.
- the other end of the fan 7 is further connected to the outer barrel 2 via the drying tunnel 8.
- the drying tunnel 8 has a heating device 9 for heating air passing through the drying tunnel 8, and the condensation device 5 is used for cooling the hot and wet air from the outer barrel 2 to condense and separate the air-borne moisture from the air.
- the condensation device 5 comprises a heat exchanging unit 10
- the heat exchanging unit 10 comprises two drying air channels 11 made of a heat conductive material and two cooling air channels 12 disposed between and on two sides of the drying air channels 11.
- Two ends 11a, 11 b of the drying air channels 11 are respectively connected to a positioning frame 13 and a connector 14 ( the connecting
- Two ends 12a, 12b of the cooling air channel 12 are respectively connected to the external environment. Therefore, the external air flows into the cooling air channel 12 and exchanges heat with the drying air in the drying air channel 11 to condense the moisture from the drying air.
- the heat exchanging unit 10 further comprises two side boards 15 respectively disposed on two sides of the drying air channels 11.
- a heat dissipation unit 16 that air passes through is installed in a space formed between the side boards 15 and the drying air channels 11 and between the two drying air channels 11.
- the spaces adjacent to the ends 11a, 11 b of the drying air channel 11 are not blocked by the heat dissipation unit 16, which forms a first connecting slot 17a, a second connecting slot 17b and a third connecting slot 17c.
- the positioning frame 13 comprises two side walls 18.
- a seal strip 19 is connected to the side walls 18 by ribs 20, and through holes 21 are connected to form the drying air channel 11 between the ribs.
- the connector 14 comprises two side walls 22, and a containment slot 23 is disposed in a space formed by the side walls 22.
- the containment slot 23 is connected to the drying air channel 11 for receiving the positioning frame 13.
- the side walls 18, 22 of the positioning frame 13 and the connector 14 extend into the first connecting slot 17a and the second connecting slot 17b, and the seal strip 19 of the positioning frame 13 extends into the third connecting slot 17c.
- Glue 24 is filled between the first connecting slot 17a, the second connecting slot 17b and the third connecting slot 17c, and thus the heat exchanging unit 10, the positioning frame 13 and the connector 14 are glued together and block the first connecting slot 17a, the second connecting slot 17b and the third connecting slot 17c.
- the cooling air channel 12 is enclosed by the side boards 15 and the two drying air channels 11.
