ES2301411A1 - Automatic system for evaporation of condensates - Google Patents

Abstract

Consists of the installation of a set of condensation control elements on to the lower rear part of the external condenser units of air-conditioning systems, permitting the elimination by evaporation of the liquid formed in the air-conditioning process. The system is made up of an electric liquid level sensor, which is connected to the liquid collection container on the bottom of the external condenser unit, and which, depending on the level of liquid in the container, activates the pump, which pumps the water through pipes connected to the rear ventilation grille and releases it on to the condenser through atomizers at the end of the pipes, causing the liquid to evaporate, thereby making it unnecessary to install condensed liquid drainage pipes and improving heat efficiency by cooling the ventilation grille of the condenser unit.

Description

Automatic evaporation system condensed

Object of the invention

The Invention Patent referred to in This Report is intended to guarantee exploitation and exclusive property, throughout the national territory, of a system Automatic evaporation of condensed liquid from devices air conditioners and refrigeration.

Field of the Invention

This invention has its application within temperature and humidity exchange needs, especially to evaporation of the condensed liquid during the process of air conditioning (F25), which are generated in the evaporators by the condensation.

This invention has two purposes important: On the one hand it solves one of the most problems important domestic air conditioning facilities such as it is the current need to have complicated channeling of drain of condensed liquids and on the other hand increase substantially the thermal performance of the equipment and a decrease of electricity consumption.

Background of the invention.

Nowadays air conditioning is the more complete process of ambient air treatment, consistent in regulating temperature conditions (heating or cooling), humidity and quality (renewal, filtering).

In recent years, the implementation of air conditioning devices has become a necessity, essential to achieve well-being both in domestic, work and leisure environments.

The state of the art has evolved so much that air conditioners are offered in the market Economical, high performance, easy installation and very silent but all of them lack optimal systems for the disposal of condensed liquids from drains of the different units that compose them.

Description of the invention

The invention consists of adaptation on the external condensing unit so that by installing the device for collecting condensed water in the air conditioning process, in which is located a simple electric condensate pump, a liquid level sensor and a set of small pipes ascending by way of pipes with sprayers in their ends, the condensed water is pumped onto the condenser of the outdoor unit, and thanks to its high temperature and the fan action of the equipment together with the exchange of moisture, the condensed liquid evaporates in the outside environment, eliminating the need for drainage pipes and / or placement of containers for collecting liquids from condensed

Description of the drawings

To better understand the scope of this invention, we will describe it on the drawings attached in the that a preferred design of it has materialized given to Sample title and without limitation.

Figure 1 shows a rear view of a outdoor condensing unit with the invention installed and

Figure 2 shows a side view of the same.

We can verify that, in the drawings, we have represented by (1) the external condensing unit of a device air conditioning, (2) container for condensed liquids, (3) liquid level sensor device, (4) drive pump, (5) ascending pipes, (6) sprinklers and (7) grid of ventilation.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As can be seen in the drawings, the invention is formed on a condensing unit of an equipment of air conditioning (1) and consists of a level sensor of liquids (3) that detects the presence and level of liquid that is accumulates in the container (2) for collecting condensed liquids that activates, in case of reaching an adequate level of liquid in the vessel, the electric drive pump (4). This pump drives the condensed liquid through the vertical pipes rear (5), anchored on the ventilation grill of the equipment outer condenser and is emitted outside in the form of a thin rain thanks the sprinklers (6).

Water poured by sprinklers (6) falls directly on the ventilation grill (7) rear of the condensing unit (1) which, when in contact with it, evaporates rapidly influencing the temperature of the condenser as the effect of the condenser inside fan, as well as the humidity of the outside environment.

Once the liquid level of the container Condensate collection (2) is reduced, the sensor detects it and stops the action of the pump and, therefore, of the sprinklers.

As you can see, the invention is so effective as simple and original. This set of elements like they are the sensor, the pump, pipes and sprinklers are Simple to handle and install and economical.

With the invention, they are even reduced significantly installation costs, which as already commented, it makes unnecessary the installation of pipes of drain that, in many occasions, affect the facades of the buildings, as well as energy expenses since the water discharged by the sprinklers on the grid facilitates the elimination of heat and improves the thermal performance of the installation, just as It can be seen in the attached drawings.

Within the essentiality of the invention, they fit variants of detail, also protected and so may vary the Type level sensor, drive pump, features and quantity of supply and sprinkler pipes, as well as the dimensions of the different parts of the system, and of course, the material used

Claims (2)

1. Automatic condensate evaporation system, characterized by the fact that it consists of a set of elements consisting of a liquid pump, a liquid level sensor and a set of pipes at the ends of which have small sprinklers that are placed in the external condensing devices of the air conditioning equipment in such a way that it collects the drain liquid that is stored in the lower tray of the condenser and expels it in the form of water sprayed on the top of the ventilation grill of the condensing unit Exterior. 2. Automatic condensate evaporation system, according to the first claim, and characterized by having an electric liquid level sensor that activates the drive pump, also electric, only when it detects the appropriate presence of liquid level in the water collection tray from the drain lines of the evaporating and condensing units of the air conditioning system.
