Description
1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a structure system having a chiller and multiple central water-cooled air quality regulators connected to the chiller and more particularly to such a structure system having a chiller and multiple central water-cooled air quality regulators connected to the chiller, essentially comprising a chiller and multiple central water-cooled air quality regulators connected to the chiller. The central water-cooled air quality regulators comprise a central control unit, cooling tube banks, fan, motor, three-way valve, water pipes, air outlet, temperature-controlled electrically-driven air guide vane, return-air opening, high-efficiency filter, guide opening, indoor display controller, carbon dioxide CO2 content sensor, temperature sensor, PM2.5 particle cleanliness sensor, and computer.


2. DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART

Split air conditioners using a coolant as a cooling medium are suitable for apartment buildings and each essentially comprise an outdoor compressor and condenser unit and an indoor air outlet unit. Although split air conditioners do not have issues with secondary construction, their use is restricted to residences and shops. By contrast, a central water-cooled air conditioner 1 shown in FIG. 1 goes with a business building. The central water-cooled air conditioner 1 comprises a fan motor 12, heat exchanger coil 11, three-way valve 13, and temperature & air speed controller 14. The central water-cooled air conditioner 1 uses water as a cooling medium and thus has to be connected to an air box 15, air duct 16 and air outlet 17, which necessitates secondary construction. Furthermore, the installation of the central water-cooled air conditioner 1 requires each story of the building to have an air conditioning air duct installed to function as an air outlet, which not only necessitates secondary construction to the detriment of construction cost control and construction simplicity but also restricts its functionality to the regulation of air temperature.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is therefore one object of the invention to provide a structure system having a chiller and multiple central water-cooled air quality regulators connected to the chiller, essentially comprising a chiller and multiple central water-cooled air quality regulators connected to the chiller. The central water-cooled air quality regulators comprise a central control unit, cooling tube banks, fan, motor, three-way valve, water pipes, air outlet, temperature-controlled electrically-driven air guide vane, return-air opening, high-efficiency filter, guide opening, indoor display controller, carbon dioxide CO2 content sensor, temperature sensor, PM2.5 particle cleanliness sensor, and computer. The central control unit is connected to the computer to facilitate the control of the central water-cooled air quality regulator and connected to the chiller. The water pipes connected to the chiller are connected to a cooling tower on the top of the building. Furthermore, the water pipes are connected to the central water-cooled air quality regulators at all the stories of the building respectively to regulate the ambient temperature and the air quality therein. Designed for use in apartment buildings and business buildings, the invention not only has wide application but also dispenses with the need for the allocation of dedicated spaces for outdoor compressor and condenser units and the need for the secondary construction and tertiary construction required for the air ducts and electric power systems associated with indoor air outlet units.

In conclusion, the invention integrates a conventional split air conditioning system and a conventional central water-cooled air conditioning system in terms of their advantages, exhibits none of their drawbacks, and is effective in regulating indoor air quality—a feature not found among existing, conventional air conditioners. Designed for use in apartment buildings and business buildings, the invention not only has wide application but also dispenses with the need for the allocation of dedicated spaces for outdoor compressor and condenser units and the need for the secondary construction and tertiary construction required for the air ducts and electric power systems associated with indoor air outlet units.
