Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a toilet air conditioner for controlling the air inside a toilet room, and more particularly to a toilet air conditioner equipped with a ventilation function.

Traditionally, air conditioning and deodorization in toilets were performed separately. Most deodorization methods use air fresheners and ventilation fans, so
When using disposable air fresheners or using a ventilation fan, there is a drawback that a ventilation fan is required in addition to the air conditioner, which increases purchase and installation costs.

In addition, a deodorizing device containing activated carbon (deodorizing agent) is installed in the toilet, and the odor from the toilet room is sucked in through the deodorizing port and adsorbed to the activated carbon, which reduces the deodorizing efficiency of the activated carbon. At the same time, they have the disadvantage of having a short lifespan and requiring frequent replacement.

The purpose of the present invention is to use a fan for the outdoor heat exchanger of a toilet air conditioner equipped with a cooling device, a heating device, and a dehumidifying device to forcibly release the odor while the toilet is in use and the air in the toilet room to the outside. To provide a toilet air conditioner with a deodorizing ventilation device that can intermittently ventilate a toilet room using a timer or the like.

11.1 This relates to an air conditioner equipped with a deodorizing ventilation device that simultaneously discharges odors and ventilates the toilet room during use, and also intermittently ventilates the toilet room using a timer etc. after use.It has an outdoor heat exchanger at the bottom. The indoor heat exchanger device is placed on the top and has an integrated structure with the outdoor heat exchanger fan at the bottom. A double damper is installed inside the room and a hole is penetrated into the toilet bowl and the toilet room to install a microphone and a low switch on the toilet seat. During use, a microswitch is activated by the weight of the human body, the damper at the bottom opens, and the outdoor heat exchanger fan is activated, forcing the odor during use and the air in the toilet room to be released outside.

It is also an air conditioner that uses a timer to intermittently ventilate the toilet room even after use, and is a multi-purpose toilet air conditioner that can perform cooling, heating, dehumidification, deodorization, and ventilation in one unit.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

A is a toilet air conditioner with a ventilation system according to the present invention, and as explained below, the air conditioner body consisting of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit is housed in an outer box 1 that is integrated with a cleaning tank. Yes, it can be attached to the rear upper surface of the toilet bowl 12 and used.

Insert the air conditioner body installed in the inner box 2 inside the outer box 1,
At the bottom of the inner box 2 is a compressor I13, an outdoor heat exchanger 4. Fan for outdoor heat exchanger5. A fan motor 6 for the outdoor heat exchanger is installed, and outdoor air suction ducts 7 are installed on the left and right sides of the bottom.
A duct 8 for discharging outdoor air is installed and protrudes outside through a wall 9. In addition, a double damper structure is adopted in which a damper lla is stacked on the bottom of the fan chamber 10 of the outdoor heat exchanger 4 and a damper lid is stacked on top of it, and a hole 13d is formed in the bottom of the fan chamber 10 under the tip of the damper 11a. A hole 13a that penetrates into the room and communicates with the toilet bowl 12 via the damper 11a.
has been established. Also, the damper lla on the bottom of the damper lid
A hole 13C is made in the hole 13C, and the fan chamber 10 is installed so that the hole 13C matches the hole 13d at the bottom of the fan chamber 10. A microswitch 15 is built in the toilet seat 14 and the toilet bowl 12 is installed. In addition, a shikiri plate 16 is installed on the upper part of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and the indoor heat exchanger 17 is placed above it. Fan for indoor heat exchanger 18. Fan motor 19 for indoor heat exchanger, indoor air intake port 20.
Indoor air outlet 21. An operation switch mounting plate 22 is attached, and a toilet flush water tank 23 is defined inside the front of the outer box.

In this configuration, during the cooling operation, the air sucked in from the indoor air suction port 20 is cooled by the indoor heat exchanger 17, and the air is cooled by the indoor air discharge port 21.
At the same time as discharging colder air, outdoor air is sucked in from the cooling air suction duct 7 of the outdoor heat exchanger 4, and the hot air heat-exchanged in the outdoor heat exchanger 4 is exhausted outdoors through the outdoor air discharge duct 8. The toilet room is cooled by repeating a series of refrigeration cycles. During heating operation, either switch the above refrigeration cycle to a heat pump type, or use an electric heater (
(not shown) is installed near the indoor air outlet 21 to heat the toilet room. Further, during dehumidification, dehumidification is performed by combining a refrigeration cycle and an electric heater for heating, or by heating the cooled and dehumidified indoor air with a reheater (not shown) using a high-temperature refrigerant. In addition, regarding deodorization and ventilation when using the toilet, depending on the weight of the human body 25 during use, the toilet seat 14
The micro switch 15 is activated and the damper lla is opened, and at the same time the fan 5 for the outdoor heat exchanger rotates to remove the odor during use from the hole 13a and the air in the toilet room from the outdoor air discharge rod 8 through the hole 13d. Forcibly discharge outside. In addition, for ventilation of the toilet room after use, as shown in Fig. 4, the damper lid is opened intermittently by a timer or the like, and the air in the toilet room is discharged to the outside by the outdoor heat exchanger fan 5 through the holes 13C1 and 13d. This is done by forcibly discharging it outside from the outlet duct 8. Also, the thermostat of the air conditioner
If the power switch is turned on even in FF mode or when the operation is stopped, the damper lla is activated by the operation of the micro switch 15.
opens to release odors and provide ventilation during use. In addition, the toilet air conditioner is designed to ventilate the toilet room intermittently using a timer etc. even after use, achieving multiple purposes such as cooling, heating, dehumidification, deodorizing ventilation during use, and intermittent ventilation after use. It's large.

As explained above, the present invention uses a single air conditioner to perform cooling, heating, dehumidification, and ventilation to keep the air in the toilet room clean at all times. The damper opens when the microswitch is activated, and the air is forcibly discharged outside through the hole in the toilet bowl and the hole penetrating into the toilet room through the outdoor air discharge duct when the outdoor heat exchanger fan is activated. For.

Conventional air fresheners, separate deodorizing devices, ventilation fans, etc. are not required, making it economical, and each toilet can fully perform its functions with just 11 m of empty space, achieving multiple purposes and having great effects.
