Description

Window integrated ventilation purifier {Window integrated ventilation purifier}

The present invention relates to a window-integrated ventilation purifier.

The windows installed in the building are designed to allow the indoors to view the outdoors and to ventilate polluted indoor air in addition to providing natural light to the indoors. When the indoor air is ventilated, the window is opened. In this case, the indoor air can be ventilated in a short time through the open window.

However, there is a problem that noise, soot, smog, dust, yellow dust and pollen from the outside flow into the room without filtering through the open window during ventilation and contaminate the indoor air. Cold outdoor air is introduced into the room to lower the room temperature, which causes additional energy loss due to the operation of a heating device to increase the dropped room temperature.

In order to create a pleasant indoor environment, it is good to ventilate by opening windows at regular intervals. In particular, in recent years, indoor air is easily polluted by combustion gases generated in the process of cooking indoors or harmful substances generated by various building materials and electronic devices. It can worsen the health of the person and cause various diseases, so to prevent this, ventilation should be provided periodically.

In addition, recently, awareness of the importance of the indoor environment and indoor air has been increasing due to the increase in indoor activity time. Quality degradation is unavoidable. Air purifiers have been developed and marketed for the purpose of purifying the polluted indoor air, but these air purifiers purify the polluted indoor air while blocking the continuous inflow of fresh outside air and simply circulate it repeatedly indoors. Therefore, there is a problem of its effectiveness being low.

In addition, since the air purifier according to the prior art is implemented as an independent type of mechanism separate from the window, which is a ventilation object, when you want to ventilate by opening the window, first introduce outside air into the room, and then Since the air cleaning operation is performed on the air, there is a problem in that the air cleaning function is lost in ventilation. In accordance with the problems of the prior art, development of an air purifying device that can simultaneously maximize the efficiency of ventilation while maintaining the original function of air cleaning by allowing outside air to be filtered and introduced into the room when ventilation is performed by opening windows in ordinary homes this is being requested

The above-described information disclosed in the background art of the present invention is only for improving the understanding of the background of the present invention, and thus may include information that does not constitute prior art.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to filter the outside air while the window is closed and introduce it into the inside, and also filter the inside air while discharging the inside air to the outside and circulate it inside to prevent the inflow of fine dust from the outside. It is to provide a window-integrated ventilation purifier capable of preventing and removing internal carbon dioxide and VOC (sick house syndrome inducing substances).

A window-integrated ventilation purifier according to the present invention includes a housing coupled to a portion of a window frame in a hexahedral shape; an air inlet installed outside the upper portion of the housing to introduce external air; a first air inlet pipe through which air introduced from the air inlet port flows in an inward direction; a second air inlet pipe installed above the first air inlet pipe to allow the introduced air to flow upward; an air filtering unit installed in the second air inlet pipe to filter the introduced outside air and send it upward; an intake fan installed on top of the air filtering unit to intake the filtered outside air in an inward direction; a third air inlet pipe through which the intake air taken from the intake fan flows in an inward direction; an air intake port connected to the third air inlet pipe and installed inside the upper portion of the housing to intake filtered external air; a first air outlet installed inside the lower portion of the housing to exhaust internal air; an exhaust fan installed in the first air exhaust port to exhaust internal air to the outside; an air exhaust pipe through which the air exhausted from the exhaust fan flows outward; a second air exhaust port installed on the outer side of the lower portion of the housing to exhaust air from the air exhaust pipe to the outside; an air circulation pipe connecting the air exhaust pipe and the first air inlet pipe; A cold or warm air supply unit installed between the air circulation pipe and the air exhaust pipe may be included.

In some examples, the cold and warm air supply unit includes a thermoelectric element unit installed in the air circulation pipe, a thermoelectric element fan installed on an upper portion of the thermoelectric element unit, and a thermoelectric element installed in a lower portion of the thermoelectric element unit and positioned in the air exhaust pipe. A heat dissipation fin may be included.

In some examples, it may further include a water tray installed below the air exhaust pipe as a lower portion of the heat radiation fin, and a spray nozzle for spraying water from the water tray to the heat radiation fin.

In some examples, the spray nozzle may be installed between the exhaust fan and the heat dissipation fin for the thermoelectric element.

In some examples, it may further include a raindrop discharge pipe connected between a region of the first air inlet pipe adjacent to the air inlet and a region of the air exhaust pipe adjacent to the second air outlet.

The present invention can filter outside air and introduce it into the inside while the window is closed, and can prevent the inflow of fine dust from the outside by discharging the inside air to the outside and at the same time filtering and circulating the inside air to the inside. It provides a window-integrated ventilation purifier that can remove carbon dioxide and VOC (sick house syndrome inducing substances).

First, external air is introduced into the first air inlet pipe 113 through the air inlet 112 . Air in the first air inlet pipe 113 flows into the second air inlet pipe 114, which is filtered by the air filtering unit 115. Accordingly, dust and fine dust that may exist in the outside air may be filtered. Meanwhile, the air filtered by the air filtering unit 115 is introduced into the inside (room) through the intake fan 116 and the third air intake pipe 117 and the air intake port 118 .

Meanwhile, internal air (including food odors and various gases) is discharged through the first air exhaust port 119 and is forcibly exhausted through the exhaust fan 120 . In addition, internal air may be discharged to the outside through the air exhaust pipe 121 and the second air exhaust port 122 .

In addition, the internal air is supplied to the air circulation pipe 123 in a state of cold or warm air through the cold or warm air supply unit 124 . Here, since the fan 126 for the thermoelectric element is installed in the cold and warm air supply unit 124, the air is naturally transferred to the upper part through air circulation. The air supplied through the air circulation pipe 123 passes through the first air inlet pipe 113, the second air inlet pipe 114, the air filtering unit 115, the intake fan 116, and the third air inlet pipe 117. And through the second air inlet 112 is supplied to the inside again.

In this way, the exemplary window-integrated ventilation purifier 100 according to the present invention can filter outside air and introduce it into the inside while the window is closed, and also discharges the inside air to the outside while filtering the inside air at the same time By circulating it inside, it is possible to prevent the inflow of fine dust from the outside, and it is possible to efficiently remove carbon dioxide, food odor, and VOC (a substance that causes sick house syndrome) inside.
