The thermal barrier 115 is preferably a material that retards temperature transfer, and in this embodiment, a foam barrier is used.
The temperature sensor is installed in the temperature controlled space 113.
The controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, the cooling assembly 130 and the heating assembly 140. The controller controls the cooling module 130 and the heating module 140 based on the temperature sensor.
When the unmanned retail cabinet works, the temperature sensor collects the temperature value of the temperature control space 113, converts the temperature value into a temperature signal, and sends the temperature signal to the controller. The controller controls the on and off of the cooling assembly 130 or the heating assembly 140 when receiving the temperature signal.
The electrical connection mode can be a wired electrical connection through a cable, and can also be a wireless electrical connection through a wireless transceiver.
It should be noted that the temperature sensor may be installed at any position of the temperature controlled space 113. When the unmanned retail cabinet is in operation, the temperature sensor generates a target control signal that may be transmitted to the controller by wireless or wired transmission.
And when the controller receives the target control signal, the controller controls the temperature control equipment to work according to the target working mode. In the target operation mode, the target temperature of the cooling component 130 or the heating component 140 is set.
For example, the cooling mode is set, and the target temperature is set to be in the range of 6 to 15 ℃, for example, the first target value is set to be 10 ℃.
The target temperature is a preset temperature value for the interior of the unmanned retail cabinet by the user.
The temperature sensor senses a temperature value of the temperature controlled space 113, converts the temperature value into a temperature signal, and transmits the temperature signal to the controller.
The controller receives a temperature value that is higher than the first target value and reaches the start point of the cooling assembly 130. The controller turns on the refrigeration assembly 130.
The refrigeration assembly 130 includes: evaporator 131, first fan 132.
The evaporator 131 evaporates the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant, and the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat and changes into a gaseous state, thereby generating a refrigeration effect.
The first fan 132 is used for blowing out the cold air generated by the evaporator 131 and forming a gas circulation in the cabinet 110.
As shown in fig. 1, the first fan 132 is disposed at a front end of the evaporator 131 and faces the evaporator 131. When the refrigeration assembly 140 operates, the first fan 132 blows out cold air generated by the evaporator 131 and forms an air circulation in the cabinet 110.
The solid lines in fig. 1 are gas circulation paths within the cabinet when the first fan 132 is turned on.
In this embodiment, the unmanned retail store is provided with two first fans 132. The first fan 132 is disposed at a front end of the evaporator 131, and faces the evaporator 131, and is located at left and right sides inside the cabinet 110.
It should be noted that the number of the first fans 132 can be adaptively set according to the size of the unmanned retail cabinet.
The first fan 132 in this embodiment is a direct current fan. The direct current fan is provided with the direct current motor, so that the control is simple and the reliability is high. The use of a dc fan for the first fan 132 can reduce the number of maintenance operations for the automated retail store and simplify the control system for the automated retail store.
The first fan 132 in the present embodiment is a large flow fan. The large flow fan not only can blow out cold air generated on the surface of the evaporator 131, but also can accelerate the air circulation inside the cabinet 110.
Refrigeration subassembly 130 is opened to the controller, and refrigeration subassembly 130 refrigerates unmanned retail cabinet body 110, specifically is: the controller controls the evaporator 131 to be turned on and the first fan 132 to be turned on, and the first fan 132 blows out the cold air generated by the evaporator 131 to form a cold air circulation.
The controller receives a temperature signal below a first target value to reach a shutdown point for the refrigeration assembly 130. The controller controls the refrigeration assembly 130 to stop operating. The method specifically comprises the following steps: the controller controls the compressor 134, the evaporator 131 and the first fan 132 to stop, and the cooling module 130 stops the cooling process.
For example, the heating mode is set, and the target temperature is set to be in the range of 30 to 50 ℃, for example, the first target value is set to be 36 ℃.
The temperature sensor senses the temperature value of the temperature controlled space 113, converts the temperature value into a temperature signal, and sends the temperature signal to the controller.
The controller receives a temperature signal that is lower than the first target value and reaches the turn-on point of the heating module 130. The controller turns on the heating module 140. The heating unit 140 performs a heating process.
The heating unit 140 includes: a heater 141 and a second fan 142.
The heating unit 140 is disposed at a front end of the first fan 132 to heat air in the cabinet.
The second fan 142 is disposed toward the heater 141, and the second fan 142 is located above the heater 141. The second fan 142 is used to blow hot air on the surface of the heater 141 into the cabinet 110 when the heater 141 is operated.
The heater 141 employs a PTC heater, as shown in fig. 2, including an aluminum tube and a heat radiating strip. The PTC heater has the advantages of no electricity on the surface, high temperature rising speed and the like, and can avoid electric shock, overheating dry heating and the like when being used inside the cabinet machine.
It should be noted that, through a great deal of research, the inventor finds that, in the use process of the PTC heater inside the cabinet body, not only the effect of quickly raising the temperature inside the cabinet can be achieved, but also the reliability and the safety of the heater can be improved.
As shown in fig. 1, the dotted line air flow circulation is a hot air circulation path on the surface of the heater 141 when the second fan 142 is turned on.
In this embodiment, the unmanned retail cabinet is provided with two second fans 142, and the second fans 142 are disposed above the heater 141 and located at the left and right sides inside the cabinet body 110.
It should be noted that the number of the second fans 142 can be adaptively set according to the size of the unmanned retail cabinet.
In this embodiment, the second fan 142 is a dc fan.
The second fan 142 is a direct current fan, which can reduce the maintenance frequency of the unmanned retail cabinet and simplify the control system of the unmanned retail cabinet.
The second fan 142 in this embodiment is a low flow fan. The second fan 142 can blow out hot air generated on the surface of the heater 141.
The heating module 140 is installed at the return side of the cooling module 130.
The return side is the inlet of the gas circulation. The return air side of the refrigeration assembly 130 is the inlet location for return air flow when the first fan 132 of the refrigeration assembly 130 is turned on.
The heating module 140 is installed on the return air side of the cooling module 130, and can circulate hot air generated on the surface of the heater 141 by a large flow rate of the first fan 132, thereby maintaining the temperature uniformity inside the cabinet 110.
The inventor finds that only one group of large-flow fans are arranged in the unmanned retail cabinet, so that the refrigeration cycle and the heating cycle are accelerated under the condition of not occupying space in the cabinet, and the complexity of design and installation can be reduced.
The controller starts the heating component 140, specifically: the controller controls the heater 141 to be turned on and the second fan 142 to be turned on, and the second fan 142 blows heat from the surface of the heater 141.
When the temperature signal received by the controller is higher than the first target value, the shutdown point of the heating component 140 and the startup point of the first fan 132 are reached. The controller turns off the heating assembly 140 and simultaneously turns on the first fan 132 of the cooling assembly 130.
In this embodiment, the difference between the first target value and the second target value is set to reach the corresponding shutdown point and startup point when the temperature is 2 ℃ to 4 ℃, for example, 3 ℃.
It will be appreciated that the difference may be set to other temperatures.
It should be noted that, in the heating mode, after the first fan 132 convects the air in the cabinet, the temperature near the temperature sensor decreases, and when the temperature value collected by the temperature sensor is lower than the first target value, the start point of the heating component 140 is reached, and the controller starts the heater 141 and the second fan 142 to operate again. So as to carry out heating work circulation and realize the temperature uniformity in the cabinet.
As shown in fig. 1, the first fan 132 has a greater flow rate than the second fan 142. The flow rate of the second fan 142 is small, and only the hot air generated on the surface of the heater 141 can be blown out, so that the whole heat cycle in the cabinet cannot be completed. Therefore, in the heating mode, the heating assembly 140 forms hot air circulation in the cabinet by virtue of the large flow characteristic of the first fan 132, so as to achieve uniform temperature of the cabinet 110.
In some embodiments, the refrigeration assembly 130 further comprises: a first shield 133.
