The present invention also provides a control method of the refrigerant recovery system as described above, comprising:
Judging whether the refrigerant in the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is clean refrigerant or not;
a control step of opening the first control valve 18 and closing the second control valve 17 and closing the third control valve 19 when it is judged that the refrigerant in the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is clean refrigerant; when it is judged that the refrigerant in the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is an unclean refrigerant, the second control valve 17 and the third control valve 19 are opened and the first control valve 18 is closed, and the compressor 11 is opened.
The invention opens corresponding pipelines by judging whether the refrigerant in the air conditioner to be recovered is clean or not, so that the two different conditions are separated, the invention preferably judges whether the refrigerant in the air conditioner to be recovered is clean or not, if the refrigerant is judged to be clean, the refrigerant can be directly led to the first heat exchanger through the first refrigerant pipeline, the first control valve 18 on the first refrigerant pipeline is opened, and the second control valve 17 and the third control valve 19 on the second refrigerant pipeline are closed at the same time; however, if it is determined that the refrigerant is not clean, it is indicated that the refrigerant contains certain impurities (including solid impurities, etc.), then the refrigerant pipeline two needs to be opened, the refrigerant is effectively filtered and cleaned by the first dry filter 10, then a certain power is provided for the refrigerant by the compressor (because the flow resistance of the refrigerant containing the impurities is large, the refrigerant can be effectively driven to flow to the liquid storage tank by providing input work through the compressor), and the refrigerant before entering the compressor can be effectively filtered by the first dry filter arranged on the refrigerant inlet side pipeline of the compressor, so that the unsafe hidden trouble caused by entering the compressor is prevented; therefore, the invention adopts two different refrigerant pipelines to convey the refrigerant in consideration of the factors of cleanliness or uncleanness, can effectively ensure that the condition that the refrigerant cannot be effectively conveyed into the liquid storage tank due to large flow resistance under the condition of containing impurities is avoided, further improves the recovery rate of the refrigerant, and effectively prevents the faults of shutdown and the like caused by the suction of the impurities in the compressor.
If the refrigerant of the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is known to be a clean refrigerant, step (1) may be used, otherwise step (2) is directly performed. (in this case, the compressor 11 does not compress, but serves as a passage), the tank 14 is initially evacuated, and the pressure of the tank 14 gradually increases during the recovery process, so that a high pressure is formed.
When the refrigerant starts to be recovered, the liquid mirror is observed, and when the refrigerant is found to be in a liquid state, the second control valve 17 and the third control valve 19 are closed, the first control valve 18 and the fourth control valve 20 are opened, and the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 22 continuously operates. At this time, the liquid storage tank is in a negative pressure state, the temperature of the first heat exchanger 13 filled with the cold storage material is lower than the ambient temperature due to the existence of the pressure difference, the temperature of the refrigerant in the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is close to the ambient temperature, the refrigerant sequentially passes through the drying filter, the liquid viewing mirror and the first control valve 18 and flows into the first heat exchanger 13, and after the cooled cold storage material is cooled, the refrigerant flows into the liquid storage tank 14 through the fourth control valve 20; simultaneously, the water pump 25 and the fan 27 are turned on, so that the cooling liquid (i.e., the secondary refrigerant) circulates in the liquid cooling system (i.e., the cold-carrying system) (the cooling liquid may be water). The cooling liquid takes away the heat of the heat storage material preheated by the second heat exchanger 24, and enters the sixth heat exchanger 6 for heating. Since the temperature of the fifth heat exchanger 4 is close to the normal temperature, and the temperature of the sixth heat exchanger 6 is higher than the normal temperature after heating, the second semiconductor thermoelectric generation sheet 5 generates electric energy to charge the electric storage device 23 under the temperature difference. The cooling liquid enters the radiator 26, and under the fan 27, heat is radiated through the radiator 26, the radiated heat heats the air conditioner 1 to be recovered, the pressure in the air conditioner is increased, and the refrigerant is promoted to flow to the liquid storage tank 14 further. When no further flow of refrigerant in the liquid mirror is observed, the first control valve 18 and the fourth control valve 20 are closed.
(2) The second control valve 17, the third control valve 19 and the fourth control valve 20 are opened, the first control valve 18 is closed, the compressor 11, the semiconductor refrigerating sheet 22, the water pump 25 and the fan 27 are simultaneously opened, the cooling liquid heats the sixth heat exchanger 6, and the heat emitted by the radiator 26 continuously heats the air conditioner 1 to be recovered. The refrigerant comes out of the air conditioner 1 to be recovered, sequentially passes through the second dry filter 2, the liquid-viewing mirror and the second control valve 17, and then enters the expander 3. After the refrigerant passes through the expander 3, the internal energy and the pressure energy are reduced, the expander 3 outputs mechanical work to the outside, the generator 21 is driven to generate electricity, and the generated electricity charges the electric storage device 23 and is stored. After passing through the expander 3, the temperature of the refrigerant is greatly reduced, the refrigerant enters the fifth heat exchanger 4, and the temperature difference between the cold and the hot occurs at the two ends of the semiconductor through the second semiconductor temperature difference power generation sheet 5, so that electric energy is generated to charge the electric storage device 23 and the electric storage device is stored. The refrigerant with lower temperature from the fifth heat exchanger 4 enters the third heat exchanger 7 and generates a temperature difference with the fourth heat exchanger 9, and the temperature difference between the cold temperature and the hot temperature occurs at the two ends of the semiconductor through the first semiconductor thermoelectric generation sheet 8, so that electric energy is generated to charge the electric power storage device 23 and is stored. The refrigerant coming out of the third heat exchanger 7 is sucked into the compressor 11 through the first drier-filter 10. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant from the compressor 11 enters the fourth heat exchanger 9 through the oil separator 12 to release heat and cool, then flows to the first heat exchanger 13 through the third control valve 19, is cooled by the cold storage material precooled in the first heat exchanger 13, and then flows into the liquid storage tank 14 through the fourth control valve 20.
(3) When no liquid flow in the liquid viewing mirror is observed, and the absolute pressure of the pressure gauge is lower than 1bar (the absolute pressure is considered that the refrigerant in the air conditioner 1 to be recovered is basically recovered), the fourth control valve 20, the second control valve 17 and the first control valve 18 are closed, the compressor 11 is closed, the operation of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet 22 is stopped, the water pump 25 is stopped, and the operation of the fan 27 is stopped. The invention firstly closes the fourth control valve 20, the second control valve 17 and the first control valve 18, and then closes the compressor 11, which can prevent the refrigerant in the liquid storage tank 14 from flowing back and prevent the ambient air from entering the polluted refrigerant recovery machine; the semiconductor cooling fin 22 is stopped first, and then the water pump and the blower fan are stopped in order to prevent overheating of the semiconductor cooling fin 22.

further comprising a detecting step of detecting a refrigerant flow state in the refrigerant line by the liquid-viewing device 15;
the judging step judges whether a liquid refrigerant exists in a refrigerant pipeline according to whether the refrigerant flows or not;
and a control step of opening the first control valve 18 or the second control valve 17 when a liquid refrigerant exists in the refrigerant line, and opening the refrigerant recovery operation.
The control step of the invention further detects and judges whether the liquid refrigerant exists, thereby effectively judging whether the vacuumizing process is effectively finished, and the refrigerant pipeline and the secondary refrigerant pipeline become negative pressure after vacuumizing, so that the refrigerant can correspondingly become liquid, the operation of refrigerant recovery is executed, and the recovery rate of the refrigerant can be improved.

The invention further starts the semiconductor refrigerating sheet to work before the refrigerant is recovered, so that the cold storage material can be precooled and cooled through the cold end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet, and the heat storage material can be preheated and heated. The saturation temperature of the recovered refrigerant is further reduced through the cold storage material, the high pressure of the recovered refrigerant is reduced, meanwhile, heat recovered from the hot end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is recovered through the liquid cooling system, an air conditioner to be recovered is heated through the heat exchanger, the low pressure recovery pressure is increased, the high-low pressure ratio of the compressor is further reduced, the efficiency of the compressor is improved, and the recovery efficiency is improved; the invention also performs vacuumizing operation on the refrigerant pipeline and the secondary refrigerant pipeline before refrigerant recovery, so that the refrigerant pipeline and the secondary refrigerant pipeline can be vacuumized, and the refrigerant pipeline and the secondary refrigerant pipeline become negative pressure after vacuumizing, so that the refrigerant can correspondingly become liquid, the refrigerant recovery operation is performed, and the recovery rate of the refrigerant can be further improved.
As shown in fig. 1, one specific mode of operation of the refrigerant recovery system of the present invention is as follows,
by manually observing the liquid mirror, it is possible to determine the state of flow of the refrigerant in the tube (whether or not the liquid refrigerant is present or whether or not the liquid refrigerant in the tube is flowing).
The vacuum operation is performed on the liquid storage tank 14 and the refrigerant system before the refrigerant is recovered.
