Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、例えば家庭用や業務用エアコン等の空調機器に係わり、特に室内機の熱交換器から発生する結露水を有効利用して、室外機から排気される空気の温度を下げ、地球の温暖化防止に役立つ空調機器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、家庭用や業務用のエアコンにおいては、それぞれ熱交換器を有する室内機と室内機が、冷媒を循環させるための冷媒配管で接続されると共に、室内機の熱交換器で発生した結露水を外部に排水するドレン管の一端が室内機に接続されている。そして、ドレン管の他端は、室外機の近傍まで配管されて結露水がそのまま屋外に排水されるように構成されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、このようなエアコンにあっては、ドレン管の他端が単に屋外に開口して室内機で発生した結露水を屋外にそのまま排水しているため、結露水の有効利用を図ることができない。また、室外機においては、室内機から戻された冷媒が熱交換されて再び室内機に供給されるため、室外機のファンによって屋外に排気される空気の温度が高くなり易く、特に真夏のようにエアコンをふる稼働する場合等において、高温の空気が屋外にそのまま排気される状態となる。その結果、この室外機からの高温の空気の排気によって、地球の温暖化が促進される状態となって、地球環境上好ましくないという問題点を有している。
【0004】
本発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたもので、その目的は、簡易な構成により室内機から発生する結露水を有効利用して、室外機から排気される空気を冷やし地球温暖化防止に容易に対応し得る空調機器を提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
かかる目的を達成すべく、本発明のうち請求項1に記載の発明は、圧縮機と室外熱交換器及び室外ファンを有する室外機と、室内熱交換器び室内ファンを有する室内機とで構成される空調機器において、前記室内熱交換器によって生成される結露水をドレン管で室外機に導き、該結露水によって室外ファンから屋外に排気される空気の温度を冷やすことを特徴とする。
【0006】
そして、前記ドレン管は、請求項2に記載の発明のように、その結露水の放水口が室外機の室外ファンの前方もしくは後方に設けられ、また、請求項3に記載の発明のように、その先端部に所定形状の冷却パイプが連結され、該冷却パイプを流れる結露水によって排気が冷却されることが好ましい。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。
図1は、本発明に係わる空調機器の一実施例の概略構成図を示している。図において、空調機器1は、住宅の内壁面等に設置される室内機2と、住宅の外壁面等の外側に据え置き状態で設置される室外機3とで構成されている。
【0008】
前記室内機2は、筐体4内に、室内熱交換器(凝縮器)5、室内ファン6、室内側絞り機構7等が配置され、室外機3は、筐体8内に、圧縮機9、四方弁10、室外側絞り機構11、室外熱交換器(蒸発器)12、室外ファン13等が配置され、この室内機2と室外機3は、一対の冷媒配管14、15によって接続されている。なお、この室外機3と室内機2の構成は一例であって、設置場所に応じた適宜構成の空調機器を使用することができる。
【0009】
そして、室内機2の室内熱交換器5の下方には、該熱交換器5で生成される結露水を貯留するドレン皿16が設けられ、このドレン皿16にはドレン管17の一端が接続されている。このドレン管17は、例えば冷媒配管14、15と一体化された状態で配管され、その他端が室外機3内に引き込まれると共に、その先端に放水ジャケット18が取り付けられている。そして、この放水ジャケット18は、室外ファン13の後方側で室外熱交換器12の前方にその図示しない放水孔が下方に指向する状態で配置されている。
【0010】
この放水ジャケット18に、室内熱交換器5で生成されドレン皿16に収容された結露水がドレン管17を介して供給され、放水ジャケット18の放水口から下方に放水されるようになっている。この放水される結露水によって、室外ファン13の回転により筐体8に設けた排気口8aから外部である屋外に矢印イの如く排気される空気の温度が冷やされることになる。
【0011】
なお、室内機2で生成される結露水が量的に少ないことから、この結露水を室外ファン13の後方側に放水したとしても、結露水が多量に室外木機3の筐体8内に飛散したり屋外にそのまま放水されることがなくなり、筐体8内の汚れ発生や室外機3外側の環境の低下(壁や庭木への悪影響)を防止することができるが、これらをより確実にするために、放水ジャケット8の下方に後述する樋を配置したり室外機3の排気口8a外側に所定の間隙を有して保護カバー(図示せず)を配置しても良い。
【0012】
つまり、この空調機器1によれば、従来屋外にそのまま排水されていた室内機2で生成される結露水を、室外機3内に設けた放水ジャケット18から室外ファン13の後方側に放水することにより、当該結露水を室外機3から排気される空気の冷却用に有効利用できて、結露水が地球温暖化の防止の一助を成すことができる。この時、従来からあるドレン管17の先端を少し延ばして、室外機3の所定位置に放水ジャケット18もしくは開口そのものを配置することで対応できることから、構成簡易で安価に形成できると共に例えば既存の空調機器にも容易に適用できて、地球温暖化防止のためのコストの低減化を図ることが可能になる。
【0013】
図2〜図4は、本発明のそれぞれ他の実施例を示している。以下、上記実施例と同一部位には同一符号を付して説明する。先ず、図2に示す実施例の特徴は、ドレン管17の他端に設けられる放水ジャケット18を、室外ファン13の後方側で室外熱交換器12の上部に配置し、結露水を室外熱交換器12の放熱板(フィン)12a上に直接放水するようにした点にある。この実施例においても、放熱板12aに放水される結露水で室外熱交換器12自体や室外ファン13による排気の温度を冷やすことができて、上記実施例と同様の作用効果が得られる。
【0014】
なお、この実施例の場合、図の二点鎖線で示すように、放水ジャケット18を室外ファン13の前方上部に配置して、室外ファン13の前方に結露水を放水させることもできる。このようにすれば、結露水の室外ファン13への直接的な付着が抑制されて、室外ファン13の信頼性向上が図れるという作用効果が得られる。
【0015】
また、図3に示す実施例の特徴は、ドレン管17の他端部下方に結露水皿19を設けこの結露水皿19の底板に電磁弁20を設けると共に、電磁弁20を制御信号Sにより所定のタイミングで開放して、結露水を下方に放水するようにした点にある。この時、電磁弁20の開閉タイミングは、図示しないセンサにより検知された屋外の温度、結露水皿19に設けた水位センサ(結露水の流量)、あるいは室内機2や室外機3の動作に係わる時間(例えば作動開始からの時間や作動中のオン・オフ時間)等によって制御される。
【0016】
また、室外ファン13の前方で放水ジャケット18の下部に樋21を配置し、冷却ジャケット18で放水された結露水のうち室外ファン13の送風により屋外に排水されなかった結露水を、樋21で受けて筐体8に設けた排水口22から室外機3の外部に排水させる。
【0017】
この実施例によれば、結露水を所定のタイミングで放水して排気される空気の温度を冷やすことができ、排気の必要に応じた冷却が可能になって、より効果的に地球温暖化防止の一助になり得ると共に、樋21によって結露水の室外機3内への飛散による筐体8内の汚れ等の発生が確実に防止されることになる。また、ドレン管17による結露水の放水が、室外機3や室内機2の運転時間、外気温度、結露水の発生量等の少なくとも一つによって制御されるため、室外機3からの排気を各種ファクターに応じて効果的に冷却することができて、一層効果的な地球温暖化防止の一助を担うことが可能になる。
【0018】
さらに、図4に示す実施例の特徴は、ドレン管17の他端部に例えば螺旋状(もしくは連続蛇行状)に巻回された冷却パイプ23を連結し、この冷却パイプ23を室外ファン13の前方に配置した点にある。冷却パイプ23は例えば熱伝導率の高い銅パイプが使用され、この冷却パイプ23の先端部開口は筐体8の排水口22から外部に露出されて、螺旋部を流れることで排気を冷却した結露水が屋外に排水されるようになっている。
【0019】
この実施例によれば、冷却パイプ23の螺旋部を流れる結露水により室外ファン13の排気が効果的に冷却されると共に、図3の実施例と同様、排気の冷却に使用した結露水が屋外に確実に排水されて、室外機3の信頼性の低下が防止されるという作用効果が得られる。この実施例の場合も、二点鎖線で示すように、冷却パイプ23を室外熱交換器12に一体化して結露水の温度を一層低くして排気の冷却効率を高めることもできるし、冷却パイプ23を室外熱交換器12と室外ファン13との間の適宜位置に配置することもできるし、冷却パイプ23にフイン等を設けること等もできる。
【0020】
なお、本発明は上記した各実施例のそれぞれに限定されるものでもなく、例えば樋21を図1や図2に示す実施例に設けることもできるし、螺旋状の冷却パイプ23に放水ジャケット18の機能を持たせる等、各実施例の全部もしくは一部を適宜に組み合わせることもできる。また、上記各実施例においては、室外機3と室内機2が完全別体である空調機器1について説明したが、室外機と室内機が一体化された空調機器にも勿論適用することができる。
【0021】
【発明の効果】
以上詳述したように、請求項1に記載の発明によれば、室内熱交換器によって生成される結露水をドレン管で室外機に導き、該結露水によって室外ファンから屋外に排気される空気の温度を冷やすことができるため、結露水を排気温度冷却用として有効利用しつつ空調機器使用時の排気温度の低温下を図り、簡易かつ安価な構成により、地球温暖化防止の一助を担うことが可能になる。
【0022】
また、請求項2に記載の発明によれば、請求項1に記載の発明の効果に加え、結露水の放水口が室外機の室外ファンの前方もしくは後方に設けられているため、室外ファンの回転より生成される空気の流れ部分に結露水を放水できて、排気の効果的な冷却が可能になると共に、既存の空調機器等への対応を容易に行うことが可能になる。
【0023】
また、請求項3に記載の発明によれば、請求項1または2に記載の発明の効果に加え、ドレン管の先端部に所定形状の冷却パイプが連結され、該冷却パイプを流れる結露水によって排気が冷却されるため、例えば螺旋形状の冷却パイプを流れる結露水によって排気を一層効率的に冷却することが可能になる。

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in such an air conditioner, the other end of the drain pipe is simply opened outdoors, and the dew water generated in the indoor unit is drained to the outside as it is, so that the effective use of the dew water cannot be achieved. . Further, in the outdoor unit, since the refrigerant returned from the indoor unit is heat-exchanged and supplied to the indoor unit again, the temperature of the air exhausted to the outside by the fan of the outdoor unit tends to be high, particularly in midsummer. For example, when the air conditioner is operated, the high-temperature air is exhausted outdoors as it is. As a result, the exhaust of the high-temperature air from the outdoor unit promotes global warming, which is not preferable for the global environment.
[0004]
The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and a purpose thereof is to effectively utilize dew water generated from an indoor unit with a simple configuration to cool air exhausted from an outdoor unit and prevent global warming.

The condensed water generated by the indoor heat exchanger is guided to an outdoor unit by a drain pipe, and the temperature of the air exhausted from the outdoor fan to the outside by the condensed water is cooled.
[0006]
In the drain pipe, the outlet of the dew condensation water is provided in front of or behind the outdoor fan of the outdoor unit as in the invention of the second aspect, and as in the invention of the third aspect. It is preferable that a cooling pipe of a predetermined shape is connected to a tip of the cooling pipe, and the exhaust gas is cooled by dew water flowing through the cooling pipe.
[0007]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of an embodiment of an air conditioner according to the present invention.

The indoor unit 2 includes an indoor heat exchanger (condenser) 5, an indoor fan 6, an indoor throttle mechanism 7, and the like arranged in a housing 4. The outdoor unit 3 includes a compressor 9 in a housing 8. , A four-way valve 10, an outdoor throttle mechanism 11, an outdoor heat exchanger (evaporator) 12, an outdoor fan 13, and the like. The indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 3 are connected by a pair of refrigerant pipes 14 and 15. I have. The configuration of the outdoor unit 3 and the indoor unit 2 is an example, and an air conditioner having an appropriate configuration according to the installation location can be used.
[0009]
Below the indoor heat exchanger 5 of the indoor unit 2, a drain plate 16 for storing dew water generated by the heat exchanger 5 is provided, and one end of a drain pipe 17 is connected to the drain plate 16. Have been. The drain pipe 17 is piped, for example, in a state of being integrated with the refrigerant pipes 14 and 15. The other end of the drain pipe 17 is drawn into the outdoor unit 3, and a water discharge jacket 18 is attached to the tip thereof. The water discharge jacket 18 is disposed behind the outdoor fan 13 and in front of the outdoor heat exchanger 12 with a water discharge hole (not shown) directed downward.
[0010]
Condensed water generated in the indoor heat exchanger 5 and stored in the drain plate 16 is supplied to the water discharge jacket 18 via the drain pipe 17, and is discharged downward from the water discharge port of the water discharge jacket 18. . The temperature of the air exhausted from the exhaust port 8a provided in the housing 8 to the outside as shown by the arrow A by the rotation of the outdoor fan 13 is reduced by the discharged condensed water.
[0011]
Since the amount of dew water generated in the indoor unit 2 is small in quantity, even if this dew water is discharged to the rear side of the outdoor fan 13, a large amount of dew water remains in the housing 8 of the outdoor wooden machine 3. Although it is not scattered or discharged directly to the outside, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of dirt in the housing 8 and the deterioration of the environment outside the outdoor unit 3 (the adverse effect on the wall and the garden tree). For this purpose, a gutter, which will be described later, may be arranged below the water discharge jacket 8, or a protective cover (not shown) may be arranged with a predetermined gap outside the exhaust port 8a of the outdoor unit 3.
[0012]
In other words, according to the air conditioner 1, the dew condensation water generated in the indoor unit 2, which has been conventionally drained outdoors, is discharged from the water discharge jacket 18 provided in the outdoor unit 3 to the rear side of the outdoor fan 13. Accordingly, the dew water can be effectively used for cooling the air exhausted from the outdoor unit 3, and the dew water can help prevent global warming. At this time, since the conventional drain pipe 17 can be coped with by slightly extending the tip of the drain pipe 17 and arranging the water discharge jacket 18 or the opening itself at a predetermined position of the outdoor unit 3, it can be formed simply and inexpensively, and for example, the existing air conditioning can be used. It can be easily applied to equipment and can reduce costs for preventing global warming.
[0013]

The point is that the water is released at a predetermined timing to discharge the dew condensation water downward. At this time, the opening / closing timing of the solenoid valve 20 relates to the outdoor temperature detected by a sensor (not shown), a water level sensor (flow rate of dew condensation water) provided on the condensation water tray 19, or the operation of the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 3. It is controlled by time (for example, time from the start of operation or on / off time during operation).
[0016]
In addition, a gutter 21 is disposed below the water discharge jacket 18 in front of the outdoor fan 13, and the condensed water discharged from the cooling jacket 18 and not discharged to the outside by the ventilation of the outdoor fan 13 is removed by the gutter 21. The water is drained to the outside of the outdoor unit 3 from the drain port 22 provided in the housing 8.

Therefore, the effect that the reliability of the outdoor unit 3 is prevented from being lowered can be obtained. Also in the case of this embodiment, as shown by a two-dot chain line, the cooling pipe 23 can be integrated with the outdoor heat exchanger 12 to further lower the temperature of the dew condensation water to increase the cooling efficiency of the exhaust gas. The cooling pipe 23 may be disposed at an appropriate position between the outdoor heat exchanger 12 and the outdoor fan 13, or a fin or the like may be provided in the cooling pipe 23.
[0020]
Note that the present invention is not limited to each of the above-described embodiments. For example, the gutter 21 can be provided in the embodiment shown in FIGS. For example, all or a part of each embodiment may be appropriately combined. In each of the above embodiments, the air conditioner 1 in which the outdoor unit 3 and the indoor unit 2 are completely separate has been described. However, the present invention can be applied to an air conditioner in which the outdoor unit and the indoor unit are integrated. .
