In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in the field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0044] In the prior art, the thickness of the motor bracket of the air-conditioning outdoor unit below 12K is generally 0.8mm, which is not conducive to the development trend of lightweight air-conditioning outdoor units. However, the specific structure of the existing motor bracket cannot ensure that its structural reliability meets the requirements after the thickness is reduced.

[0045] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a motor bracket, an air conditioner outdoor unit and an air conditioner. Figures 1 to 4 A specific embodiment of the motor bracket provided by the present invention.

[0046] See also Figure 1 The motor bracket 100 includes a bracket body 1 and at least one reinforcement structure 12. A plurality of connecting parts 11 are formed on the bracket body 1. Each of the connecting parts 11 is used to connect to an external component. The at least one reinforcement structure 12 is correspondingly arranged at at least one of the connecting parts 11.

[0047] In the technical solution provided by the present invention, a plurality of connecting parts 11 are formed on the bracket body 1, each of the connecting parts 11 is used to connect an external component, and at least one reinforcement structure 12 is correspondingly arranged at at least one of the connecting parts 11, wherein the plurality of connecting parts 11 can be connected to the external component to provide an installation environment for the external component so as to fix the external component on the motor bracket 100, and the strength of the connecting part 11 is improved by the reinforcement structure 12, so that after the thickness of the motor bracket 100 is reduced, its structural reliability can still meet the requirements, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing weight and reducing costs.

[0048] In one embodiment, the bracket body 1 includes a bracket body 13 and a motor connection seat 14 provided on the bracket body 13. The bracket body 13 is hollowed out to form an avoidance hole 131 to provide an avoidance space for installing the motor. The avoidance hole 131 has a first side hole edge 1311 extending along the length direction of the bracket body 1 and a second side hole edge 1312 extending along the width direction of the bracket body 1. The motor connection seat 14 includes a flat plate portion 1412 arranged opposite to the bracket body 13. The flat plate portion 1412 is provided on the bracket body 13. The surface of 12 is arranged to be flat, so as to increase the contact area when abutting against the motor connection part 11, thereby improving the stability of the connection. A side connecting plate part 1411 is connected between the flat plate part 1412 and the frame body 13. The side connecting plate part 1411 is partially connected to the flat plate part 1412 and the first side hole edge 1311, and partially connected to the flat plate part 1412 and the second side hole edge 1312, so that the flat plate part 1412 is supported on the first side hole edge 1311 and the second side hole edge 1312 at the same time.

[0049] The side connecting plate portions 1411 of the existing motor bracket 100 are currently only connected to the flat plate portion 1412 and the first side hole edge 1311, or connected to the flat plate portion 1412 and the second side hole edge 1312, so that the flat plate portion 1412 is only supported on the first side hole edge 1311 or the second side hole edge 1312. Compared with the prior art, the present solution not only increases the connection area between the motor connecting seat 14 and the frame body 13 and improves the structural strength, but also, when the motor is installed on the motor connecting seat 14, it can transmit loads in two directions through the first side hole edge 1311 and the second side hole edge 1312, thereby enhancing the torsion resistance of the motor connecting seat 14.

[0050] It is understandable that the specific shape of the avoidance hole 131 can be set according to specific needs, for example, see Figure 2 The avoidance hole 131 is a square hole. Of course, the avoidance hole 131 can also be a round hole, a polygonal hole or other special-shaped holes.

[0051] It should be noted that there is no specific restriction on the relative height between the flat plate portion 1412 and the frame body 1 , and it can be selected according to the actual situation such as the motor model. For example, in this embodiment, the relative height between the flat plate portion 1412 and the frame body 1 is 24 mm.

[0052] Specifically, the flat plate portion 1412 and the side connecting plate portion 1411 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence as a connecting group 141, and a plurality of the connecting groups 141 are arranged. By connecting the plurality of the connecting groups 141 with the motor, the load of the motor can be shared to avoid stress concentration. In addition, the plurality of the connecting groups are also arranged at intervals along the hole edge of the avoidance hole 131, and the intervals are the same. For example, in this embodiment, four connecting groups 141 are arranged at the hole edge of the square avoidance hole 131, respectively located at the four corners of the avoidance hole 131, which can evenly share the load and improve the bearing capacity of each connecting group 141; similarly, when the avoidance hole 131 is circular, it can be arranged on the hole edge of the circular avoidance hole at the same interval, which can also achieve the effect of evenly sharing the load. Of course, there is no specific restriction on the number and interval distance of the connecting groups 141, and they can be selected according to actual conditions, and will not be described one by one here.

[0053] It is worth mentioning that, in conjunction with the aforementioned side connecting plate portion 1411 being partially connected to the flat plate portion 1412 and the first side hole edge 1311, and partially connected to the flat plate portion 1412 and the second side hole edge 1312, the bearing capacity of each connecting group 141 can be further improved, and the connecting group 141 is then arranged at the four corners of the avoidance hole 131 to distribute the loading load, which can further improve the bearing capacity.

[0054] Considering that the motor and the flat plate portion 1412 are generally fixed by threaded connection, and when the thickness of the motor bracket 100 is reduced, there is a risk that the screw hole depth is insufficient, resulting in slippage after the screw is installed. Therefore, in one embodiment, a flanging hole 1412a is provided on the flat plate portion 1412, and an internal thread is provided in the flanging hole 1412a for the threaded connection structure to pass through to fix the motor. It should be noted that the flanging hole 1412a is formed by punching a hole in the overlapping position after the flat plate portion 1412 is partially bent and flattened, so that the depth of the flanging hole 1412a is twice the thickness of the motor bracket 100, and then an internal thread is provided in the flanging hole 1412a so that the thread has a sufficient length, thereby reducing the risk of slippage.

[0055] It is worth mentioning that in the prior art, the motor connection seat 14 is generally formed by stretching and then bending, which will affect the structural strength of the motor connection seat 14 itself, while in the present application, the motor connection seat 14 is stretched and formed as one piece, which will not affect the structural strength of the motor connection seat 14. It should be noted that after adopting the specific embodiment of the above-mentioned motor connection seat 14, the thickness of the motor bracket 100 is reduced. For example, after reducing the thickness of the motor bracket 100 to 0.6mm, the motor connection seat 14 can meet the use requirements after simulation and long-term reliability operation tests.

[0056] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2The bracket body 1 includes a frame body 13 and a bottom mounting plate portion 15 arranged at the bottom of the frame body 13, and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 is used to be installed and connected with an external component. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 arranged at intervals along the width direction of the frame body 13 are provided between the bottom mounting plate portion 15 and the frame body 13. Of course, the number of the plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 is not limited and can be selected according to actual needs. Specifically, the plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 include a plurality of side reinforcing ribs 161 located at the side ends of the frame body 13, and a middle reinforcing rib 162 located in the middle part of the frame body 13. The width of the side reinforcing rib 161 is greater than the width of the middle reinforcing rib 162. In this way, by widening the width of the side reinforcing rib 161 located at the side end, not only the stiffness and strength of the frame body 13 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 can be further improved, but also the strength and stiffness of the two sides of the bottom mounting plate portion 15 can be ensured to remain relatively balanced, thereby avoiding stress concentration caused by force on one side and affecting the service life.

[0057] Furthermore, the side reinforcement rib 161 includes a first side rib segment 163 on the frame body 13 and a second side rib segment 164 on the bottom mounting plate portion 15, so as to respectively improve the stiffness and strength of the frame body 13 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15. The motor bracket 100 also includes a triangular connecting rib 165, which is arranged at the connection between the first side rib segment 163 and the second side rib segment 164 to consolidate the stiffness and strength of the bent connection. It can be understood that the widened side reinforcement rib 161 can provide sufficient setting area for the triangular connecting rib 165, so that the triangular connecting rib 165 can be arranged at intervals along the width direction of the side reinforcement rib 161. Of course, the specific number of the triangular connecting rib 165 is not limited and can be at least one. It can be selected according to actual needs. For example, it can be selected according to the length values ​​of the side reinforcement rib 161 and the triangular connecting rib 165.

[0058] It should be noted that there is no specific restriction on the formation method of the reinforcing rib 16, which can be formed by convex or concave, or by adding ribs or ribs. In one embodiment, one side of the bracket body 1 is partially concave to form the reinforcing rib 16 on the other side of the bracket body 1. In this way, the reinforcement effect can be achieved only by changing the specific shape of the bracket body 1 without changing the thickness and weight of the bracket body 1, which is convenient for the design trend of miniaturization and lightweight. There is no restriction on the specific shape of the reinforcing rib 16, which can be elongated, triangular, polygonal, etc., and can be selected according to actual needs.

[0059] In addition, after adopting the embodiment of the above-mentioned reinforcing rib 16, after reducing the thickness of the motor bracket 100, for example, after reducing the thickness of the motor bracket 100 to 0.6 mm, the bottom of the frame body 13 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 can meet the use requirements after simulation and long-term reliability operation test.

[0060] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The bracket body 1 includes a bracket body 13 and a top connecting plate portion 17 arranged on the top of the bracket body 13. The top connecting portion 11 is used to be in contact with the inner wall of the top cover of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Two profiling protrusions 171 are formed on the top connecting portion 11. The top connecting portion 11 is convexly arranged on the part between the two profiling protrusions 171 to form a buffering boss 172. The height of the buffering boss 172 is less than the height of the profiling boss. It should be noted that a protruding structure is formed on the inner wall of the top cover of the air conditioner outdoor unit. During installation, the protruding structure is in contact with the part between the two profiling protrusions 171. At this time, the two profiling protrusions 171 can limit the protruding structure. However, when the air conditioner outdoor unit is undergoing a drop test, the protruding structure will contact with the two profiling protrusions. 171, causing the top cover to deform. The drop test is to use the same model of top cover to freely fall on the top connecting plate portion 17 of the test at a certain height to simulate the actual handling or loading and unloading operation process. In the prior art, a sponge gasket is generally provided between the protruding structure and the top connecting portion 11 for buffering. However, the sponge gasket has a service life. After long-term use, the buffering effect will deteriorate, and the production process is increased, affecting the production efficiency and cost. In this embodiment, when the top cover falls, it will collide with the buffering boss 172 formed by the partial convexity between the two contoured protrusions 171. The buffering boss 172 can absorb and release a certain amount of energy during the collision, thereby playing a buffering role, and can also reduce the risk of deformation of the top cover. There is no need to provide a sponge gasket, thereby reducing the production cost.

[0061] It should be noted that there is no specific limitation on the height of the buffer platform 172, which can be selected according to specific needs. For example, in this embodiment, the height of the buffer platform 172 is 3 mm.

[0062] In addition, a connection hole 173 is provided on the top connecting plate portion 17 for connection and picking up by the clamping structure. The connection hole 173 can provide a force point for the clamping mechanism without occupying additional space of the top connecting plate portion 17. In this way, the motor bracket 100 can be clamped in cooperation with the clamping structure to perform other processes, such as transporting or assembling the workpiece, without manual operation, saving labor costs and improving production and assembly efficiency. It is worth mentioning that in one embodiment, the buffer boss 172 is provided with the connection hole 173 for For connection and picking up by the clamping structure, considering that after the clamping structure picks up the connecting hole 173, the clamping structure will suspend the entire bracket body 1 and drive its movement, so that the force points of the bracket body 1 are concentrated near the connecting hole 173, and coupled with the gravity effect of the bracket body itself, there is a risk of deformation of the bracket body 1 when it is clamped for transportation or assembly. The connecting hole 173 is set on the buffer platform 172, which can absorb a certain amount of energy when the clamping structure is clamping, thereby reducing the risk of deformation of the bracket body 1.

[0063] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The bracket body 1 includes a frame body 13 and a top connecting plate portion 17 arranged on the top of the frame body 13. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 are arranged between the top connecting plate portion 17 and the frame body 13 and are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the frame body 1. Of course, the number of the plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 is not limited and can be selected according to actual needs. The plurality of reinforcing ribs 16 include a plurality of first reinforcing ribs at the side ends of the frame body 13 and a plurality of second reinforcing ribs at the middle part of the frame body 13. The length of the first reinforcing rib is greater than the length of the second reinforcing rib. In this way, by lengthening the length of the first reinforcing rib located at the side end, not only the rigidity and strength of the frame body 13 and the top connecting plate portion 17 can be further improved, but also the strength and rigidity on both sides of the top connecting plate portion 17 can be ensured to remain the same. For balance, to avoid stress concentration on one side, which would cause excessive bending and deformation of the local position of the connection between the top connecting plate portion 17 and the frame body 13 and affect the service life, the specific shape of the reinforcing rib 16 is not limited, and it can be elongated, triangular, polygonal, etc., which can be selected according to actual needs; further, a plurality of triangular connecting ribs 165 are arranged between the top connecting plate portion 17 and the frame body 13 at intervals along the width direction of the frame body 1, and the plurality of triangular connecting ribs 165 are arranged between the first reinforcing rib and the second reinforcing rib, which further improves the rigidity and strength of the frame body 13 and the top connecting plate portion 17, and can also be used to share the load for the first reinforcing rib and the second reinforcing rib, thereby reducing the risk of deformation of the top connecting plate portion 17 when it is hit.

[0064] In one embodiment, the bracket body 1 includes a bracket body 13, a bottom mounting plate portion 15 arranged at the bottom of the bracket body 13, and a top connecting plate portion 17 arranged at the top of the bracket body 13, and the top connecting plate portion 17 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 are located on the same side of the bracket body 13. In this way, the actual space occupied by the entire bracket body 1 after being installed inside the air conditioner outdoor unit can be reduced, which is convenient for the miniaturized design of the air conditioner outdoor unit structure. Moreover, if the top connecting plate portion 17 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 are arranged on different sides of the bracket body 13, the risk of the bracket body 1 tipping over after installation will increase. When tipping over, the top connecting plate portion 17 or the bottom mounting plate portion 15 close to the rear panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit may hit the rear panel, causing scratches on the condenser fins.

[0065] It should be noted that, during the installation process of the motor bracket 100 on the production line of the air conditioner outdoor unit, since the installation and screwing belong to two adjacent workstations, that is, the motor bracket 100 is installed first before the screwing process is performed, the motor bracket 100 is not fixed by screws, and the top connecting plate portion 17 and the bottom mounting plate portion 15 are on the same side of the frame body 13, it is easier to tip over when transported on the conveyor belt. When the motor bracket 100 tips backward toward the rear panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit, the folded edge of the motor bracket 100 is easy to scratch the condenser fins, and even damage the copper tube inside the condenser. Therefore, in one embodiment, the bracket body 1 includes a frame body 13 and An anti-collision structure 174 is arranged on the top of the frame body 13, and the anti-collision structure 174 includes an extension plate portion 1741 extending backward and an anti-collision plate portion 1742 connected to the extension plate portion 1741. The anti-collision plate portion 1742 is extended along the length direction of the frame body 13. The extension plate portion 1741 extends backward to have a sufficient length when the bracket body 1 tilts backward so that the anti-collision plate portion 1742 contacts the condenser first, thereby preventing other sharp parts of the bracket body 1 from colliding with the condenser. The anti-collision plate portion 1742 extends along the length direction of the frame body 13 to increase the contact area during collision, which can further reduce the damage to the condenser during collision.

[0066] It is also worth mentioning that when the existing bracket body 1 is installed in the air conditioner outdoor unit, it is generally fixed in contact with the rear panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit. After the motor is installed in the bracket body 1, the motor will generate vibration when working. At this time, there is a situation where the vibration is transmitted to the bracket body 1. In order to solve this problem, a sponge pad is generally arranged between the bracket body 1 and the rear panel to absorb the vibration and play a buffering role. In this embodiment, after the bracket body 1 is installed and fixed, the anti-collision structure 174 does not contact the rear panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit. In this way, the bracket body 1 will not transmit the vibration to the rear panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit, thereby avoiding the generation of vibration and causing abnormal noise.

[0067] Considering that after reducing the thickness of the motor bracket 100, the outer edge of the bracket will be sharper, and the production personnel will be easily scratched when touching it, and there is also a risk of wearing the motor wiring. Therefore, in one embodiment, the bracket body 1 has a bracket outer edge, and the bracket outer edge is folded to form a folded edge 18. The formed folded edge 18 increases the thickness of the bracket outer edge, thereby reducing its sharpness. It should be noted that there is no specific restriction on the bending direction of the folded edge, which can be bent outward or inward, and there is no specific restriction on the number of folds, as long as it can increase its thickness and reduce its sharpness.

[0068] It should be noted that the motor bracket 100 needs to be connected and fixed to the front panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit, generally by screw connection. When performing threaded connection and fixing, the motor bracket 1 is difficult to position and align with the front panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit. In one embodiment, the bracket body 1 is provided with a plug-in positioning structure 19 for plugging and fixing with the panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit. In this way, after the bracket body 1 and the panel of the air conditioner outdoor unit are plugged and positioned, they can be connected and fixed by screws, realizing positioning first and then screwing. In this way, after plugging and positioning, automatic screwing equipment can be used for assembly and production, and manual screwing is no longer needed, thereby improving the degree of automation of product assembly and further improving assembly efficiency.

[0069] Furthermore, the plug-in positioning structure 19 includes a bracket plug-in protrusion 191 and / or a bracket plug-in groove 192. The bracket plug-in protrusion 191 is used to be plugged into the panel plug-in groove on the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel to achieve the insertion of the bracket body 1 into the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel for positioning and fixing. The bracket plug-in groove 192 is used for plugging and connecting with the panel plug-in protrusion provided on the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel, and can also achieve the positioning and fixing of the bracket body 1 and the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel. It should be noted that the bracket plug-in protrusion 191 and the bracket plug-in groove 192 can be used either alone or at the same time. When used at the same time, the plug-in positioning effect is better. For example, please refer to Figure 4The bracket plug-in groove 192 is recessed on the bracket plug-in protrusion 191. At this time, the bracket plug-in protrusion 191 can be first inserted into the panel plug-in groove on the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel, and then the panel plug-in protrusion on the air-conditioning outdoor unit panel can be inserted into the bracket plug-in groove 192 to achieve double plug-in to form a plug-in assembly structure, so that the connection effect is more stable.
