Abstract

A cooling device for air conditioner circuit board includes a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, a gas-liquid separator, and an indoor heat exchanger which are connected in sequence. A gas outlet end of the gas-liquid separator is communicatively coupled with a gas suction port of the compressor through a cooling pipeline, and a cooling equipment for cooling the air conditioner circuit board is provided on the cooling pipeline.

Claims (13)

1. A cooling device for air conditioner circuit board, the cooling device comprising: a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, a gas-liquid separator, and an indoor heat exchanger which are connected in sequence, wherein a gas outlet end of the gas-liquid separator is communicatively coupled with a gas suction port of the compressor by means of a cooling pipeline, and wherein a cooling equipment for cooling the air conditioner circuit board is provided on the cooling pipeline, wherein the cooling equipment comprises a casing and a partition plate arranged in the casing, the partition plate divides the casing into two separated receiving chambers, an inlet of the cooling equipment is communicatively coupled with one of the receiving chambers, and an outlet of the cooling equipment is communicatively coupled with the other receiving chamber, and a communicating hole, which is open towards a direction where the air conditioner circuit board is, is arranged on the partition plate, wherein the communicating hole extends continuously between the two separated receiving chambers and has an opening area that increases gradually along a refrigerant flow direction.

2. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a first throttling device arranged between the indoor heat exchanger and the gas-liquid separator; and/or

a second throttling device arranged between the outdoor heat exchanger and the gas-liquid separator.

3. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 2 , further comprising: a third throttling device arranged between a gas outlet end of the gas-liquid separator and the cooling equipment.

4. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a by-pass pipeline arranged between the gas outlet end of the gas-liquid separator and the indoor heat exchanger; and

a flow regulating valve arranged on the by-pass pipeline.

5. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling equipment is a parallel flow heat exchanger.

6. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of communicating holes is distributed on the partition plate radially.

7. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 1 , wherein a side wall of the casing close to the air conditioner circuit board has an uneven inner surface.

8. The cooling device for air conditioner circuit board according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a third throttling device arranged between the cooling equipment and the gas suction port of the compressor.
