Air conditioning economizer

Abstract

An air conditioning economizer includes a compressor, a condenser, a metering device, an evaporator generating condensed water during operation, a refrigerant pipe and a textile member. The refrigerant pipe is a loop pipe interconnecting the compressor, the condenser, the metering device and the evaporator, and includes a supercooling section interconnecting the condenser and the metering device. The textile member is capable of transferring moisture, is quick drying, covers the supercooling section and the metering device, and is adapted for absorbing the condensed water.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An air conditioning economizer comprising:
 a compressor that is adapted for compressing a vapor refrigerant into a compressed vapor refrigerant;   a condenser that is adapted for condensing the compressed vapor refrigerant into a liquid refrigerant, and that includes an exit end through which the liquid refrigerant exits;   a metering device that is adapted for depressurizing the liquid refrigerant into a liquid-vapor mixture of depressurized refrigerant;   an evaporator that is adapted for evaporating the liquid-vapor mixture of depressurized refrigerant into the vapor refrigerant, and that generates condensed water during operation;   a refrigerant pipe that is a loop pipe interconnecting said compressor, said condenser, said metering device, and said evaporator, and that includes a supercooling section interconnecting said exit end of said condenser and said metering device; and   a textile member that is capable of transferring moisture and is quick drying, said textile member covering said supercooling section of said refrigerant pipe and said metering device, and being adapted for absorbing the condensed water.   
     
     
         2 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in claim  1 , wherein said textile member has a remained water ratio not greater than 35% determined according to Chinese National Standards-5611 (CNS-5611) at the 40 th  minute. 
     
     
         3 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein said textile member is made of a material selected from the group consisting of nylon, elastane, polyester, polypropylene, and combinations thereof. 
     
     
         4 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a container that supports said condenser and said evaporator, the condensed water generated by said evaporator being discharged into the container and being absorbed by said textile member. 
     
     
         5 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein said textile member has a covering section that covers said supercooling section of said refrigerant pipe, and at least one extending section that extends from said covering section into said container for absorbing the condensed water that is discharged into said container. 
     
     
         6 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein said at least one extending section of said textile member is connected to said container. 
     
     
         7 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said textile member is a strip of fiber that is wound on said supercooling section of said refrigerant pipe to cover said supercooling section. 
     
     
         8 . The air conditioning economizer as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein said strip of fiber has multiple fiber parts that are sewn together.
