[0024] The present invention will be further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, a clothes dryer capacitor fixing structure described in the present invention includes a base 1, a plurality of capacitor mounting parts 2, and a fixing member 3. The plurality of capacitor mounting parts 2 are arranged side by side on the base 1, and a capacitor limiting hole 4 is provided below the capacitor mounting part. The plurality of capacitor limiting holes 4 can be deformed and fixedly connected through the fixing member 3.

[0026] The fixing member 3 and the capacitor limiting hole 4 described in the present invention are integrally formed to form a deformation structure. Taking the case where there are two capacitor mounting parts 2 as an example, openings are provided on opposite surfaces of the two capacitor limiting holes 4, one end (rear end) of the two opposite openings are connected by a back plate 7, and the other end of the two opposite openings are connected by a fixing member 3. The fixing member 3 is an arc-shaped elastic sheet protruding outward, and a fastening hole 8 is provided in the middle of the fixing member, and a screw hole 9 is provided at a corresponding position on the back plate 7.

[0027] The capacitor installation method of the present invention first places the capacitor 10 in the capacitor installation part 2, inserts the bottom of the capacitor into the corresponding capacitor limiting hole 4, and uses the fastener 3 to extend into the fastening hole 8 and the screw hole 9 from the side to lock the deformation structure, so that the capacitor is fastened in the corresponding capacitor limiting hole, which is stable and firm, will not be deformed or damaged, and has a long service life. Figure 2 As shown; the fasteners are screws or bolts, etc.

[0028] In addition, an outer support plate 5 is provided on the outside of the capacitor mounting part 2 of the present invention. The outer support plate 5 is a semicircular structure. The outer support plate 5 is vertically arranged on the base 1. The outer support plate 5 is concentric with the capacitor limiting hole 4. The function of the outer support plate 5 is that when installing, the capacitor can be directly leaned against the outer support plate 5 to quickly find the capacitor limiting hole 4, which plays a role of rough positioning and improves installation efficiency.

[0029] The fixing members 3 of the present invention are arranged on opposite sides of the outer support plate 5, so that they do not affect each other when the capacitor is installed, and the installation efficiency is high.

[0030] The number of the fastening holes 8 of the present invention is smaller than the number of the capacitor limiting holes 4, thereby reducing the number of fasteners and further reducing product costs.

[0031] In the present invention, a heat dissipation rib 6 is provided between the outer support plate 5 and the capacitor limiting hole 4 to facilitate heat dissipation of the capacitor.

[0032] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with respect to the preferred embodiments, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the claims.
