Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of air conditioner brackets, and specifically to an outdoor unit bracket for an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] An air conditioner bracket is a fitting specifically used for installing an outdoor unit of an air conditioner. It is usually made of metal and has the characteristics of strong load-bearing capacity, stable structure, and simple installation. Its functions are mainly as follows: supporting the weight. The outdoor unit of an air conditioner is a relatively heavy electrical device. If no bracket or an inappropriate bracket is used for installation, problems such as tilting and dropping are likely to occur. Fixing the position, the air conditioner bracket can firmly fix the outdoor unit of the air conditioner on the wall, avoiding the shaking and falling of the air conditioner in bad weather such as strong winds and earthquakes.

[0003] Currently, when installing an air conditioner, it is nailed to the outside of the wall through a triangular bracket, and the air conditioner is fixed by placing it inside the triangular bracket. The stability of the triangle is used to increase the stability during the installation of the air conditioner. This operation is convenient and fast. However, for the existing outdoor unit brackets of air conditioners, when installing, different outdoor unit brackets need to be corresponding to different models, which is relatively complex and has low applicability during installation, and cannot dampen the vibrations generated during the operation of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention provides an outdoor unit bracket for an air conditioner to solve the problem that the existing outdoor unit bracket of an air conditioner does not have a damping function.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: The outdoor unit bracket for an air conditioner includes a frame structure. The frame includes a base (1), a first side plate (2), and a second side plate (3). The bottom edges of the first side plate (2) and the second side plate (3) are respectively connected to two symmetric sides of the base (1). A pair of connecting brackets (17) are connected to the back of the base (1), and the connecting brackets (17) are used to connect to the outside of the wall. A pair of U-shaped frames (6) are fixed on the base (1). A U-shaped fixing frame (7) is respectively arranged in each U-shaped frame (6), and the fixing frame (7) is used to connect the base of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; A number of damping seats (10) are respectively fixed at the inner bottom of each U-shaped frame (6). A hollow screw (11) is respectively and fixedly connected to each damping seat (10). A rotating sleeve (14) is respectively screwed and installed on the outer wall of the circumference of each screw (11); At the position corresponding to the damping seat (10) at the inner bottom of the corresponding U-shaped frame (6) at the bottom of each fixing frame (7), a fixing sleeve (13) is respectively fixed. Each fixing sleeve (13) is respectively connected with a sliding rod (12). Each sliding rod (12) is slidably installed inside the screw (11) on the corresponding damping seat (10); A spring (15) is also respectively connected between each fixing sleeve (13) and the corresponding damping seat (10).

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom edges of the first side plate (2) and the second side plate (3) are respectively reversely connected to the corresponding sides of the base (1).

[0007] Furthermore, a plurality of extension rods (4) in the form of sleeve structures are fixedly connected to the top edges of the first side plate (2), and a plurality of connecting rods (5) are fixedly connected to the top edges of the second side plate (3). The connecting rods (5) can be inserted into the extension rods (4) one by one, and the tops of the frame structures are formed by the connecting rods (5) and the extension rods (4) combined by plugging.

[0008] Furthermore, elastic columns are respectively arranged on the outer walls of each connecting rod (5), and slots are respectively arranged on the side walls of each extension rod (4). When the connecting rod (5) is inserted into the corresponding extension rod (4), the elastic columns of the connecting rod (5) are stuck in the slots of the extension rod (4).

[0009] Furthermore, the lower end of the connecting bracket (17) extends downward to the lower part of the base (1), and an inclined rod (18) is connected between the downward extending section of the connecting bracket (17) and the base (1).

[0010] Furthermore, arc-shaped rods (1701) are respectively fixedly connected to the backs of each connecting bracket (17), and inserting plates are fixedly connected to the ends of the arc-shaped rods (1701). A stabilizing plate (1703) is further included. The stabilizing plate (1703) is fixed to the outside of the wall body, and a slot (1702) is arranged on the front surface of the stabilizing plate (1703). The inserting plates at the ends of the arc-shaped rods (1701) are inserted into the slots (1702) on the front surface of the stabilizing plate (1703).

[0011] Furthermore, a U-shaped rubber pad (8) is fixed in the fixing frame (7), and a slide rail (9) is fixed in the rubber pad (8). The air conditioner outdoor unit base is fixed through the slide rail (9), so that the fixing frame (7) is connected to the air conditioner outdoor unit base.

[0012] In the present invention, the vibration generated by the air conditioner outdoor unit can squeeze the fixing sleeve through the fixing frame, thereby driving the sliding rod to slide inside the screw rod, and further driving the spring to expand and contract, thus completing the shock absorption work. The gravity of the air conditioner outdoor unit is different, and the intensity of the generated vibration is also different. By rotating the rotating sleeve, the rotating sleeve rises and falls outside the screw rod, thereby adjusting the pre-pressure of the spring, flexibly using the elastic index of the spring, and cooperating with the force unloading effect of the rubber pad in the fixing frame, so that a good shock absorption effect can be achieved.

[0013] Moreover, in the present invention, the two side plates in the frame structure can be opened, which is convenient for the installation of the air conditioner outdoor unit. The connecting bracket is plugged into the stabilizing plate fixed to the outside of the wall body in a plugging manner, and the connecting bracket itself is fixed to the outside of the wall body, so that the installation and disassembly of the air conditioner outdoor unit are more convenient.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 - 5 , the present invention provides an air conditioner outdoor unit bracket, which includes a base 1, a first side plate 2, and a second side plate 3. The bottom edges of the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3 are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the top of the base 1. The top edge of the first side plate 2 has a plurality of extension rods 4 in the form of sleeve structures, and the top edge of the second side plate 3 has a plurality of connecting rods 5. A pair of connecting brackets 17 are fixed to the back of the base 1, and the connecting brackets 17 are used to connect to the outside of the wall.

[0022] A pair of U-shaped frames 6 extending in the front-rear direction are installed on the top of the base 1. Inside each U-shaped frame 6, there is a U-shaped fixed frame 7. Inside each fixed frame 7, a U-shaped rubber pad 8 is fixedly installed. Inside each rubber pad 8, a slide rail 9 is fixed, and the slide rail 9 is used to connect to the base of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0023] A plurality of shock-absorbing seats 10 are fixed to the bottom of each U-shaped frame 6, and each shock-absorbing seat 10 is distributed in the front-to-back direction. A vertically extending hollow screw rod 11 is fixed to the top of each shock-absorbing seat 10, and a rotating sleeve 14 is screwed and installed on the circumferential outer portion of each screw rod 11. A fixed sleeve 13 is fixed to the bottom of each fixed frame 7 corresponding to each shock-absorbing seat 10, and each fixed sleeve 13 is fixedly connected to a vertically extending sliding rod 12, and each sliding rod 12 is slidably installed in the screw rod 11 on the shock-absorbing seat 10 at the corresponding position, and a spring 15 is connected between each fixed sleeve 13 and the shock-absorbing seat 10 at the corresponding position, and the spring 15 is sleeved on the corresponding screw rod 11 and sliding rod 12.

[0024] When the air conditioner outdoor unit vibrates during normal use, the vibration force is transmitted to the rubber pad 8 through the slide rail 9 to unload the force, and the vibration force squeezes the fixed sleeve 13 through the fixed frame 7, thereby driving the slide rod 12 to slide inside the screw 11, and then driving the spring 15 to expand and contract, thereby completing the shock absorption work. The gravity of the air conditioner outdoor unit is different, and the intensity of the vibration is also different. By rotating the rotating sleeve 14, the rotating sleeve 14 rises and falls outside the screw 11, thereby adjusting the preload of the spring 15 and flexibly using the elastic index of the spring 15.

[0025] For further information, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, an extension plate 601 is installed on the left and right sides of each U-shaped frame 6, and a waist-shaped groove is opened inside the extension plate 601. The extension plate 601 of each U-shaped frame 6 is fixed to the base 1 by screws passing through the waist-shaped groove, thereby completing the fixation of the U-shaped frame 6 and the base 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, a fixing screw is installed inside the slide rail 9, the lower end of the fixing screw is located inside the slide rail 9 and is threadedly sleeved with a first nut, and the upper end of the fixing screw is located above the slide rail 9 and is threadedly sleeved with a second nut. When used to install the air conditioner outdoor unit, the fixing screw is placed inside the slide rail 9, the upper end of the fixing screw passes through the base of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and the base of the air conditioner outdoor unit is fixed to the fixing screw through the second nut, thereby completing the fixing of the air conditioner outdoor unit to the slide rail 9, and then completing the fixing of the air conditioner outdoor unit to the fixing frame 7, the U-shaped frame 6, and the base 1.

[0027] See also Figure 1, in this embodiment, rotating shafts 101 with an axial direction of front and back are respectively and rotatably installed on the left and right sides of the top of the base 1. Connecting sleeves 16 are installed at the bottom edges of the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3. Both the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3 are rotatably connected to the rotating shafts 101 on the corresponding sides of the top of the base 1 through the connecting sleeves 16. By rotating on the outside of the rotating shafts 101 through the connecting sleeves 16, the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3 can be unfolded, which is beneficial to the convenience of installing the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0028] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 1 , in this embodiment, when both the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3 are vertical, the connecting rods 5 at the top edges of the first side plate 2 are slidably inserted into the extension rods 4 at the top edges of the second side plate 3 one by one. Thus, when both the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3 are vertical, a frame structure is formed by the base 1, the first side plate 2, the second side plate 3, the connecting rods 5 and the extension rods 4 that are mutually inserted and combined, and the top of the frame structure is formed by the connecting rods 5 and the extension rods 4 that are mutually inserted and combined. Elastic columns are installed at the top of each connecting rod 5, and through slots are provided at the top of the extension rod 4. When the connecting rod 5 is inserted into the extension rod 4, the through slot is clamped by the elastic column to complete the connection between the connecting rod 5 and the extension rod 4.

[0029] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 , in this embodiment, a pair of convex blocks are fixed on the back of the base 1, and a connecting bracket 17 is fixedly connected through the convex blocks. The connecting bracket 17 is designed in an L-shaped structure. The lower end of the connecting bracket 17 extends downward to the lower part of the base 1. An inclined rod 18 is connected between the downward extending section of the connecting bracket 17 and the base 1. A triangle is formed between the inclined rod 18 and the base 1, thereby increasing the stability.

[0030] Finally, please refer to 1, Figure 2 and Figure 5 , in this embodiment, arc-shaped rods 1701 are respectively fixedly connected to the backs of each connecting bracket 17. Plugs are fixedly connected to the ends of the arc-shaped rods 1701. A stabilizing plate 1703 is also included. The stabilizing plate 1703 is fixed to the outside of the wall. A slot 1702 is provided on the front of the stabilizing plate 1703. The slot wall of the slot 1702 has an arc-shaped opening for placing the arc-shaped rod 1701. The plug at the end of the arc-shaped rod 1701 is inserted into the slot 1702 on the front of the stabilizing plate 1703, and a section of the arc-shaped rod 1701 adjacent to the stabilizing plate 1703 is placed in the arc-shaped opening of the slot wall of the slot 1702. The stabilizing plate 1703 is installed on the outside of the wall through expansion screws, and the top end of the connecting bracket 17 is fixed to the outside of the wall through expansion screws, thereby connecting the connecting bracket 17 to the outside of the wall.

[0031] In this embodiment, the implementation scenario is specifically as follows: The stabilizing plate 1703 is installed on the outside of the wall through expansion screws. The insertion plate connected to the arc-shaped rod 1701 is installed inside the slot 1702. The top end of the connecting bracket 17 is fixed to the outside of the wall through expansion screws. The connecting sleeve 16 rotates outside the rotating shaft 101 to realize the unfolding of the first side plate 2 and the second side plate 3. The fixing screws are placed inside the slide rail 9 and pass through the base of the air conditioner outdoor unit. The base of the air conditioner outdoor unit is fixed to the fixing screws through the second nut, thereby completing the fixation of the air conditioner outdoor unit inside the slide rail 9. When the air conditioner outdoor unit vibrates during normal use, the vibration force will be transmitted to the rubber pad 8 through the slide rail 9, thereby unloading the force. The fixing frame 7 squeezes the fixing sleeve 13, thereby driving the slide rod 12 to slide inside the screw rod 11, and further driving the spring 15 to expand and contract, thereby further completing the shock absorption work. The gravity of the air conditioner outdoor unit is different, and the intensity of the vibration generated is also different. By rotating the rotating sleeve 14, the rotating sleeve 14 rises and falls outside the screw rod 11, thereby adjusting the pre-pressure of the spring 15 and flexibly using the elastic index of the spring 15.
