[0009] In one possible implementation, the buffer section has a contact surface on one side, which abuts against the outdoor unit, and the other surfaces, except for the contact surface, are provided with the buffer groove in the circumferential direction.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the first fastener includes a limiting portion that mates with the buffer groove, the extending direction of the limiting portion matching the extending direction of the buffer groove, the cross-section of the limiting portion being a U-shaped structure, and the outer surface of the U-shaped structure abutting against the inner wall of the buffer groove.

[0011] In one possible implementation, a fixing part is further included, which is located at both ends of the extending direction of the limiting part, and the fixing part connects the limiting part to the outdoor unit.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the connecting portion has stop blocks at both ends in a first direction, the stop blocks extend out of the connecting portion in a second direction, and the buffer portion has slots at both ends in the first direction for accommodating the stop blocks, the first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the stop block is located on the side away from the contact surface.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the connecting part is provided with a through hole in a first direction, and the second fastener includes a first bolt and a first nut that fit together. The first bolt passes through the through hole and the connecting part is connected to the fastener by the engagement of the first nut.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the outdoor unit includes a base, a plurality of shock absorbers are arranged along a first direction at both sides of the base, and a plurality of shock absorbers located on the same side are spaced apart along a second direction.

[0016] The shock absorption device further includes a first bracket and a second bracket extending along the second direction respectively. The first bracket and the second bracket are detachably connected to the component to be fixed.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] Figure 1 This diagram illustrates a shock-absorbing device provided in an embodiment of this application, which connects an air conditioner outdoor unit to a component to be fixed. Figure 2 This diagram shows a partial cross-sectional view of an air conditioner outdoor unit connected to a component to be fixed using a shock-absorbing device according to an embodiment of this application. Arrow X points in a first direction, and arrow Y points in a second direction. The first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other, and the first direction X is parallel to the direction of gravity.

[0036] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a vibration damping device for the outdoor unit 2 of an air conditioner. The vibration damping device 1 connects the outdoor unit 2 to a component 3 to be fixed. It is understood that the component 3 to be fixed can be the wall of the driver's cab in a vehicle, or the outer wall of a wall in an enclosed space such as an indoor space or warehouse; no specific limitation is made here. In this application embodiment, the vibration damping device 1 is applied to the case where the outdoor unit 2 is connected to the outer wall of the driver's cab in a vehicle, and the vibration damping device 1 is described in detail.

[0037] The shock absorption device 1 includes a shock absorber 11, which includes a connecting portion 112 and a buffer portion 111 connected together. The buffer portion 111 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting portion 112 and is an elastic element with deformability. A first fixing member 12 connects the buffer portion 111 to the outdoor unit 2 so that the buffer portion 111 and the outdoor unit 2 make contact and fit. A second fixing member 13 is connected to the connecting portion 112 and is used to connect to the component 3 to be fixed. The buffer portion 111 with deformability makes contact and fit with the outdoor unit 2, while the connecting portion 112 connected to the buffer portion 111 is used to connect to the cab wall. This fitting structure allows the outdoor unit 2 to be directly connected to the cab wall, reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency. Meanwhile, for the outdoor unit 2 connected via the shock absorber 11, when the outdoor unit 2 vibrates during operation, the vibration is directed to the contact-fitting buffer 111. The buffer 111 absorbs forces from all directions using its own deformation capacity, preventing the vibration from being transmitted to the cab wall along the connection 112, thereby reducing noise in the cab. Furthermore, because the buffer 111 absorbs the vibration force, during the continuous movement of the outdoor unit 2, the vibration of the outdoor unit 2 gradually decreases in the opposite direction, preventing the internal components of the outdoor unit 2 from continuously vibrating and improving the service life of the components.

[0038] Optional, see Figure 3 The connecting part 112 is integrally formed with the buffer part 111 by embedding. This ensures the reliability of the shock absorber 11 formed by the connection of the connecting part 112 and the buffer part 111, and prevents the buffer from falling off the connecting part 112 due to external forces, thereby improving the structural stability of the outdoor unit 2 fixed to the wall of the cab.

[0039] It is understandable that, based on the fact that the buffer part 111 is set as an elastic element with deformability, the connecting part 112 can also be set as an elastic element in order to achieve better shock absorption and reduce noise. Alternatively, the connecting part 112 can also be set as a rigid element, which allows for a more secure connection with the second fixing element 13 and improves strength. The material selected for the connecting part 112 can be adapted to actual needs and is not specifically limited here.

[0040] Optionally, the buffer part 111 or the connecting part 112 can be configured as an elastic element. The material can be rubber, which has good plastic deformation ability and high structural stability. This is beneficial for connecting the shock absorber 11 to the outdoor unit 2 and the cab wall respectively, thereby improving the strength of the connection.

[0041] Optionally, along the first direction X, the end faces of both ends of the connecting portion 112 are flush with the end faces of both ends of the buffer portion 111. This is to avoid contact between the connecting portion 112 and the first fixing member 12, ensuring that vibrations transmitted to the buffer portion 111 via the first fixing member 12 are not transmitted or are transmitted very little to the connecting portion 112.

[0042] The buffer portion 111 and the connecting portion 112 that cooperate in the shock absorber 11 can be simply set as a cylindrical or square body structure with an inner and outer sleeve based on a center line along the first direction X, or other cooperation structures, as detailed in the embodiments below.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the buffer portion 111 is provided with a buffer groove 111a extending in the circumferential direction. The opening of the buffer groove 111a faces away from the connecting portion 112. The first fastener 12 is at least partially located in the buffer groove 111a to connect the buffer portion 111 to the outdoor unit 2. When the buffer portion 111 is fixedly connected to the outdoor unit 2 by the first fastener 12, the buffer groove 111a allows the first fastener 12 to form a snap-fit ​​connection with the buffer portion 111, preventing the buffer portion 111 from deforming and falling off when the first fastener 12 applies a tightening force to the buffer portion 111. This ensures the structural stability and reliability of the fastening connection.

[0044] Optionally, the buffer section 111 has a contact surface 111b on one side, which abuts against the outdoor unit 2. Along the circumferential direction, all surfaces except the contact surface 111b are provided with interconnected buffer grooves 111a. The contact surface 111b ensures sufficient contact area between the buffer section 111 and the outdoor unit 2, enabling stable absorption of more vibrations from the outdoor unit 2 and achieving a better buffering effect. It is important to emphasize that the buffer section 111 on the side with the contact surface 111b needs to have sufficient thickness to ensure good absorption.

[0045] It is understandable that the distance from each position of the buffer portion 111 to the connecting portion 112 along the circumferential direction can be set to be equal, that is, the thickness of the buffer portion 111 is the same. Alternatively, it can be set that the thickness of the side with the contact surface 111b is greater than the thickness of other positions, without specific limitation here.

[0046] Optionally, the depth of the inward recess of the buffer groove 111a toward the buffer portion 111 is between 5mm and 10mm. By setting the depth of the buffer groove 111a within this range, it is ensured that the first fixing member 12 will not dislodge from the buffer groove 111a due to rubber deformation during mating, while avoiding excessive depth from affecting the buffering deformation effect of the buffer portion 111. It should be emphasized that the size, shape, depth, etc. of the buffer groove 111a can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs and the specific structure of the mating first fixing member 12, and are not specifically limited here.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment, see Figure 4 The first fixing member 12 includes a limiting part 121 that mates with the buffer groove 111a. The extending direction of the limiting part 121 matches the extending direction of the buffer groove 111a. The cross-section of the limiting part 121 is U-shaped, and the outer surface of the U-shaped structure abuts against the inner wall of the buffer groove 111a. The U-shaped limiting part 121 is designed to match the square buffer groove 111a, increasing the contact area 111b between the limiting part 121 and the buffer groove 111a at least in the first direction X. The first direction X is parallel to the direction of gravity, preventing excessive force from damaging the buffer part 111a and affecting its performance.

[0048] Optionally, a fixing part 122 is also included. The fixing part 122 is located at both ends of the extending direction of the limiting part 121, and the fixing part 122 connects the limiting part 121 to the outdoor unit 2. By using the fixing parts 122 at both ends to connect to the outdoor unit 2, the U-shaped limiting part 121 is engaged in the buffer groove 111a, which has high structural stability and prevents it from falling off.

[0049] Understandably, the fixing part 122 is a plate-like structure that fits against the surface of the outdoor unit 2. The fixing part 122 and the limiting part 121 are integrally formed to improve the strength of the structure. The fixing part 122 is provided with multiple fixing holes. The second bolt 122a passes through the fixing holes and the base 21 of the outdoor unit 2, and is fastened by the second nut.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, the connecting portion 112 is provided with stop blocks 112a at both ends in the first direction X, and the stop blocks 112a extend out of the connecting portion 112 in the second direction Y. The buffer portion 111 is provided with slots at both ends in the first direction X for accommodating the stop blocks 112a. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect. The stop blocks 112a further restrict the connecting portion 112 and the buffer portion 111 in the direction of gravity, preventing them from easily moving or even falling off under the gravity of the outdoor unit 2.

[0051] Optionally, the stop block 112a is located on the side away from the contact surface 111b. This will not affect the buffer section 111's reception of vibrations from the outdoor unit 2, ensuring that the buffer section 111 achieves a better energy absorption effect.

[0052] It is understandable that the stop block 112a and the corresponding slot can be adapted to meet actual needs, and no specific limitations are made here.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, the connecting part 112 is provided with a through hole 112b extending in the first direction X. The second fixing member 13 includes a first bolt 131 and a first nut 132 that engage. The first bolt 131 passes through the through hole 112b, and the connecting part 112 is connected to the member 3 to be fixed by the engagement of the first nut 132. When connecting the shock absorber 11 to the cab wall, in order to avoid the transmission of vibration to the cab wall, which would increase noise, the connecting part 112 at the center position of the shock absorber 11 is connected to the second fixing member 13. This ensures the connection of the outdoor unit 2 while preventing vibration from being transmitted to the cab wall. The structure is simple and easy to install and remove.

[0054] As one specific implementation of this application, see [link to specific implementation]. Figure 5 and Figure 6 To ensure the stability and noise reduction performance of the outdoor unit 2, multiple shock absorbers 11 can be installed to connect the outdoor unit 2 and the cab wall. The multiple shock absorbers 11 are distributed and relatively evenly arranged to avoid stress concentration.

[0055] Furthermore, the outdoor unit 2 includes a base 21, and a plurality of shock absorbers 11 are arranged along the first direction X at both sides of the base 21, and the plurality of shock absorbers 11 on the same side are arranged at intervals along the second direction Y; the shock absorption device 1 also includes a first bracket 14 and a second bracket 15 extending along the second direction Y respectively, the first bracket 14 and the second bracket 15 being detachably connected to the component to be fixed 3, the first bracket 14 being connected to a plurality of shock absorbers 11 on one side, and the axis of the through hole 112b in the shock absorber 11 on that side being parallel to the first direction X, the first bolt 131 passing through the through hole 112b and the first bracket 14, and the connecting part 112 being connected to the first bracket 14 respectively by the first nut 132; the second bracket 15 being connected to a plurality of shock absorbers 11 on the other side, and the axis of the through hole 112b in the shock absorber 11 on that side being parallel to the second direction Y, the first bolt 131 passing through the through hole 112b and the second bracket 15, and the connecting part 112 being connected to the second bracket 15 respectively by the first nut 132.

[0056] Multiple shock absorbers 11 located on the upper part of the base 21 in the first direction X are connected by a first bracket 14. The first bracket 14 is an L-shaped bracket. One side of the L-shaped bracket has multiple spaced holes along the second direction Y, and the other side is fastened to the cab wall by a third bolt 16. Along the first direction X, the holes are located below the through hole 112b and are aligned. A first bolt 131 passes through the through hole 112b and the hole, and a first nut 132 engages with the first bolt 131 on one side of the first direction X to achieve a fastening connection.

[0057] Multiple shock absorbers 11 located on the lower part of the base 21 in the first direction X are connected by a second bracket 15. The second bracket 15 has holes at both ends in the second direction Y, which respectively mate with the through holes 112b in the shock absorbers 11 located on both sides. A first bolt 131 passes through the through hole 112b and the hole, and is fastened by a first nut 132 on one side of the second direction Y. The second bracket 15 can also be configured as an L-shaped structure and fastened to the cab wall by a third bolt 16.

[0058] The shock absorbers 11 arranged in different directions on the base 21, combined with the bracket, facilitate the fixed connection to the cab wall. At the same time, this cooperative structure makes it easy for the staff to operate and tighten the first bolt 131 and the first nut 132 on the shock absorbers 11 at different positions, reducing the difficulty of assembly and improving efficiency.

[0059] Optionally, the holes on the bracket for mating with the corresponding bolts can be set as adjustable raceway holes 141 to reduce assembly difficulty.

[0060] Optionally, to improve strength, the third bolt 16 can be pre-welded to the corresponding first bracket 14 and second bracket 15, and then fastened to the corresponding position on the cab wall by the third nut. No specific limitation is made here.

[0061] This application also provides an air conditioner, including the shock absorption device 1 as described in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0062] This application also provides a vehicle including an air conditioner as described above. The air conditioner includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit 2. A shock-absorbing device 1 is used to connect the outdoor unit 2 to the exterior wall of the vehicle's driver's side, which will not be described in detail here.
