The present invention relates to a technology of handling indoor and outdoor air flow in a building, and in particular to an indoor fresh air apparatus.
PM2.5 and formaldehyde in air influence people's life and health; therefore, it has become a hot research topic for domestic and foreign experts of how to effectively remove indoor and outdoor PM2.5 and indoor formaldehyde and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). At present, a wide variety of fresh air fans for removing PM2.5 and harmful gases such as formaldehyde and VOC in air may be found on the market, which, however, can hardly meet practical requirements in real estate development due to defects thereof, including being influenced by ventilation resistance of a filtering means, complicated maintenance and replacement, large structure size, difficult energy recovery, etc. In addition, although an air cleaning functional part is usually disposed within a common air conditioner, the air cleaning functional part can only provide a highly limited cleaning conditioning function without completely meeting comprehensive pollution treatment requirements such as PM2.5 removal, sterilization and disinfection due to limitations of ventilation resistance and installation space.

As shown in
The air-in end of the body 7 is provided with a fresh air orifice 71 and a return air orifice 72, and a check valve 2 is disposed for each of the fresh air orifice 71 and the return air orifice 72 to mainly prevent cross channeling of fresh air and return air and backflow of air.
The deodorizing module 3 comprises an activated charcoal filtering means 31 that is disposed in the middle of the air-in passage 73, and a catalytic means 32 and a UV sterilizing means 33 that are disposed at a rear section of the air-in passage 73 and combined into a partition plate. The activated charcoal filtering means 31 causes harmful gases such as formaldehyde, benzene and ammonia and part of bacteria in air to be adsorbed by means of super adsorbability of microscopic pores in carbon granules, thus achieving the effect of effectively cleaning air. The catalytic means 32 comprises a major component titanium dioxide that is a nano metal oxide material having an intensively catalytic degradation function under the action of light. The UV sterilizing means 33 achieves the effect of sterilization and disinfection mainly by destructing the molecular structure of DNA (desoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) in bacterial virus to cause death of growing cells and (or) regenerative cells. As a result, microorganisms such as germs and bacteria in ozone and air can be effectively removed. The catalytic means 32 is combined with the UV sterilizing means 33 into a photocatalytic sterilizing module. The photocatalytic sterilizing module undergoes strong redox reaction in photoelectric conversion, during which a catalytic agent absorbs photons under the action of a UV lamp, and electron transition occurs such that electrons (e-) and hole electrons (h+) are generated. Valence band holes having a strong oxidation property and conduction band electrons having a strong reducing property may directly react with reactants, and may also react with other electron donors and acceptors adsorbed on the catalytic agent. For example, holes may oxidize H2O, while electrons reduce O2 in air, thereby generating H2O2, .OH groups and HO2. These groups are all strong oxidative and thus can effectively oxidize organic pollutants, such that the organic pollutants are finally decomposed into inorganic small molecules such as carbon dioxide, H2O and halide ions, thereby achieving the purpose of eliminating Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
The monitoring device for air quality 5 is disposed at the air-in end, and comprises at least two of a smoke sensor, a dust sensor, a volatile gas sensor, a carbon monoxide gas sensor and a carbon dioxide gas sensor. The monitoring device for air quality is mainly used to monitor air quality conditions about PM2.5 and harmful gases such as formaldehyde and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) at the air-in end so as to monitor indoor and outdoor air quality in real time.
The monitoring devices for pressure difference 6 are disposed at the air-in end and the air-out end of the body 7, respectively, and mainly used to detect a pressure difference between an inlet and an outlet for the modules and determine whether the filtering means are blocked or not according to the pressure difference so as to remind a user of timely replacement and cleaning.
The fresh air orifice 71 and the return air orifice 72 are disposed in the same air chamber of the body 7. By mixing indoor return air with fresh air, 100% heat exchange effect is basically achieved.
