Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and particularly relates to an air conditioner that is convenient for maintenance and cleaning. Background Art

[0002] An air conditioner is a device that can adjust the indoor temperature. It usually consists of a refrigeration system, a heating system, a ventilation system, etc. The air conditioner cools the air through the refrigeration system and then sends the cooled air into the room through the ventilation system to achieve the effect of lowering the indoor temperature. The heating system, on the other hand, raises the indoor temperature by heating the air or using a heat pump, etc. Air conditioners have become an indispensable household appliance in modern life, especially in hot summers and cold winters, their role is more prominent.

[0003] However, traditional air conditioner repair methods usually require professional technicians to use tools such as ladders, which not only increases the difficulty and danger of repair, but also makes the repair process extremely inconvenient. Repair personnel need to climb stairs for a long time, which is not only inefficient but also may pose a threat to personal safety. Therefore, how to achieve simple maintenance and cleaning of air conditioners has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings in the prior art, the present invention provides an air conditioner that is convenient for maintenance and cleaning and can be directly operated on the ground for the air conditioner.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is: an air conditioner that is convenient for maintenance and cleaning, including an installation frame, a threaded rod, a sliding frame, a control box and an air conditioner body. Sliding grooves are symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the installation frame. A threaded rod is rotatably connected to the middle of the installation frame. A sliding frame is slidably connected to the left and right sliding grooves together. The middle of the sliding frame is threadedly connected to the threaded rod. A control box connected to the threaded rod is installed at the center of the bottom of the installation frame. It also includes a fixed seat, a locking strip, a return spring, a locking block, a sliding seat, a placement plate, a torsion spring and a hook. Fixed seats are symmetrically connected up and down on the left and right sides inside the back plate of the installation frame. The left and right fixed seats are slidably connected to a locking strip together. The bottom of the locking strip penetrates to the bottom of the installation frame. A return spring is provided between the locking strip and the fixed seat. Locking blocks are connected to the left and right sides of the bottom of the sliding frame. The locking blocks pass through the sliding grooves and are in contact with the locking strip. Sliding seats are slidably connected to the left and right sides of the installation frame. A placement plate is rotatably connected to each sliding seat. A torsion spring is provided between the placement plate and the sliding seat. Hooks are connected at intervals to the bottoms of the left and right placement plates.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the control box consists of an installation box, a micro motor and a push switch. A micro motor is installed inside the installation box. The output shaft of the micro motor penetrates the installation frame and is connected to the bottom of the threaded rod through a coupling. A push switch connected to the micro motor is installed on the installation box.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inner side of the locking bar is serrated, and the end of the locking block is designed with an inclined surface that can cooperate with the locking bar.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it further includes a support, an inclined surface extrusion rod, a compression spring, and an L-shaped extrusion rod. Supports are symmetrically and spacedly connected to the bottom of the installation frame on the left and right. An inclined surface extrusion rod is slidably connected in both the left and right supports. A compression spring is provided between the inclined surface extrusion rod and the support. The bottom of the locking bar is connected with an L-shaped extrusion rod. The end of the L-shaped extrusion rod extends towards the inclined surface extrusion rod, and the end of the inclined surface extrusion rod is in contact with the L-shaped extrusion rod. When opening the control box, the door of the control box will squeeze the inclined surface extrusion rod. At this time, when the inclined surface extrusion rod is squeezed, it will move forward, and at the same time, the inclined surface extrusion rod will also squeeze the compression spring. Since the inclined surface at the end of the L-shaped extrusion rod is in contact with the inclined surface extrusion rod, when the L-shaped extrusion rod is squeezed at this time, it will move outward along the inclined surface of the inclined surface extrusion rod, thereby driving the locking bar to move outward, achieving the effect of automatically unlocking the locking bar without manual operation.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the L-shaped extrusion rod is designed with an inclined surface that can cooperate with the inclined surface extrusion rod.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it further includes a top rod and a connecting block. Top rods are connected to both the left and right sides of the sliding frame. The top rods extend towards the control box. A connecting block is connected to the end of the placement plate. The connecting block can be in contact with the top rod. When the sliding frame drives the air conditioner body to move downward, when the top rods on both sides of the sliding frame drop to a certain distance, they will be in contact with the connecting block connected to the end of the placement plate. Continuing to drop will cause the top rods to squeeze the connecting block, thereby causing the placement plate to rotate, achieving the effect of automatically rotating and opening the placement plate.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it further includes a mounting seat, a limiting frame, an inclined surface stopper, and a tension spring. Mounting seats are spacedly connected to the center of the bottom of the front side of the installation frame. A limiting frame is slidably connected in the mounting seats. The bottom of the limiting frame is connected with an inclined surface stopper. A tension spring is provided between the inclined surface stopper and the mounting seat. When opening the control box, it is necessary to first move the limiting frame upward. When the limiting frame moves upward, it will also squeeze the tension spring. Then, after opening the door of the control box and releasing the limiting frame, at this time, under the action of the tension spring, the limiting frame will reset. At this time, the inclined surface stopper will block the door of the control box, making it unable to close, thereby enabling the door of the control box to continuously squeeze the inclined surface extrusion rod, so that when unlocking the locking bar, there is no need to manually continuously pull the locking bar or fix the door to continuously squeeze the inclined surface extrusion rod for unlocking.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are also a support base and a buffer assembly. Support bases are connected to both the left and right sides of the bottom of the installation frame, and a buffer assembly for buffering the air conditioner body is installed on the support bases. When the air conditioner body descends to the lowest height, the air conditioner body will come into contact with the buffer plate. At the same time, since there is a shock-absorbing spring between the buffer plate and the support base, the shock-absorbing spring can absorb the impact force generated during the descent, and the buffer plate can also prevent the air conditioner body from contacting the ground.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the buffer assembly is composed of a buffer plate and a shock-absorbing spring. A buffer plate is slidably connected to the support bases on both the left and right sides, and a shock-absorbing spring is provided between the buffer plate and the support bases.

[0014] The beneficial effects are as follows: 1. Through the installed control box and sliding frame in the present invention, when the micro-motor rotates forward, it will drive the threaded rod to rotate, and then the sliding frame on the threaded rod will move downward. After descending to an appropriate height, it stops pressing the pressing switch of the control box, and the locking bar is released to automatically reset under the action of the reset spring. And when the locking bar resets, the locking blocks on both sides of the sliding frame will be stuck on the locking bar, thereby making the sliding frame unable to move, preventing the sliding frame from suddenly moving during the maintenance process, which is likely to affect the maintenance, achieving the effect of being able to directly operate the air conditioner on the ground without the need to rely on tools such as ladders.

[0015] 2. Through the installed ejector rod and connecting block in the present invention, when the sliding frame drives the air conditioner body to move downward, when the ejector rods on both sides of the sliding frame descend to a certain distance, they will come into contact with the connecting block connected to the end of the placement plate. Continuing to descend will cause the ejector rod to squeeze the connecting block, thereby making the placement plate rotate, achieving the effect of being able to automatically rotate and open the placement plate.

Detailed implementation manners

[0025] The present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the presently preferred embodiments of the invention are shown. However, the invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided for thoroughness and completeness and to fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0026] Embodiment: An air conditioner facilitating maintenance and cleaning, as Figures 1 - 4 shown, includes a mounting frame 1, a threaded rod 2, a sliding frame 3, a control box 4 and an air conditioner body 5. Chutes 101 are symmetrically formed on the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. A threaded rod 2 is rotatably connected to the middle of the mounting frame 1. A sliding frame 3 is slidably connected in the chutes 101 on both the left and right sides, and the middle of the sliding frame 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 2. A control box 4 connected to the threaded rod 2 is installed at the center of the bottom of the mounting frame 1. It further includes a fixed seat 6, a locking bar 7, a return spring 8, a locking block 9, a sliding seat 10, a placement plate 11, a torsion spring 12 and a hook 13. Fixed seats 6 are symmetrically connected to the upper and lower sides on both the left and right sides inside the back plate of the mounting frame 1. Locking bars 7 are slidably connected to both the left and right fixed seats 6. The bottom of the locking bar 7 penetrates to the bottom of the mounting frame 1. A return spring 8 is provided between the locking bar 7 and the fixed seat 6. Locking blocks 9 are connected to both the left and right sides of the bottom of the sliding frame 3. The locking blocks 9 pass through the chutes 101 and are in contact with the locking bars 7. Sliding seats 10 are slidably connected to both the left and right sides of the mounting frame 1. Placement plates 11 are rotatably connected inside the sliding seats 10. A torsion spring 12 is provided between the placement plate 11 and the sliding seat 10. Hooks 13 are spacedly connected to the bottoms of both the left and right placement plates 11.

[0027] The control box 4 is composed of an installation box, a micro motor, and a push switch. A micro motor is installed inside the installation box. The output shaft of the micro motor penetrates through the installation frame 1 and is connected to the bottom of the threaded rod 2 through a coupling. A push switch connected to the micro motor is installed on the installation box.

[0028] The inner side of the locking strip 7 is serrated, and the end of the lock block 9 is designed with an inclined surface that can cooperate with the locking strip 7.

[0029] When it is necessary to repair or maintain the air conditioner body 5 fixed on the installation frame 1 on the wall, at this time, the staff can lower the air conditioner body 5 through the control box 4 at the bottom of the installation frame 1. First, the locking strip 7 needs to be moved outward. Since the bottom of the locking strip 7 penetrates to the bottom of the installation frame 1, the staff can slide the locking strip 7 outward through the protruding part of the locking strip 7. At the same time, the locking strip 7 will also compress the return spring 8. At this time, the staff can make the micro motor in the control box 4 rotate forward or backward by pressing the push switch inside the opened control box 4. When the micro motor rotates forward, it will drive the threaded rod 2 to rotate, and then make the sliding frame 3 on the threaded rod 2 move downward. After descending to an appropriate height, stop pressing the push switch of the control box 4 and release the locking strip 7 at the same time. At this time, under the action of the return spring 8, the locking strip 7 will automatically reset. And when the locking strip 7 resets, the lock blocks 9 on both sides of the sliding frame 3 will be stuck on the locking strip 7, so that the sliding frame 3 cannot move, preventing the sliding frame 3 from suddenly moving during the repair process, which is likely to affect the repair. At the same time, when repairing the air conditioner body 5, it is necessary to clean up the things on the placement plate 11 and the hook 13, and the placement plate 11 needs to be rotated to prevent the air conditioner body 5 from being blocked by the placement plate 11 during the descent. Subsequently, when the maintenance or cleaning is completed, by pressing the push switch inside the control box 4, the micro motor in the control box 4 can be reversed to reset the air conditioner body 5, achieving the effect that the air conditioner can be directly operated on the ground without the need to use tools such as ladders.

[0030] As Figure 5 shown, it further includes a support 14, an inclined surface extrusion rod 15, a compression spring 16, and an L-shaped extrusion rod 17. The supports 14 are symmetrically and spaced apart on the left and right sides at the bottom of the installation frame 1. The inclined surface extrusion rods 15 are slidably connected together inside the supports 14 on the left and right sides. A compression spring 16 is provided between the inclined surface extrusion rod 15 and the support 14. The bottom of the locking strip 7 is connected with an L-shaped extrusion rod 17. The end of the L-shaped extrusion rod 17 extends towards the inclined surface extrusion rod 15, and the end of the inclined surface extrusion rod 15 is in contact with the end of the L-shaped extrusion rod 17.

[0031] The bottom of the L-shaped extrusion rod 17 is designed with an inclined surface that can cooperate with the inclined surface extrusion rod 15.

[0032] When the control box 4 is opened, the door of the control box 4 presses the inclined plane extrusion rod 15. At this time, when the inclined plane extrusion rod 15 is pressed, it will move forward, and at the same time, the inclined plane extrusion rod 15 will also press the compression spring 16. Since the end inclined plane of the L-shaped extrusion rod 17 is in contact with the inclined plane extrusion rod 15, when the L-shaped extrusion rod 17 is pressed at this time, it will move outward along the inclined plane of the inclined plane extrusion rod 15, thereby driving the locking strip 7 to move outward, achieving the effect of automatically unlocking the locking strip 7 without manual operation.

[0033] As Figure 6 shown, it further includes a top rod 18 and a connecting block 19. The top rod 18 is connected to both the left and right sides of the sliding frame 3, and the top rod 18 extends towards the control box 4. The connecting block 19 is connected to the end of the placement plate 11, and the connecting block 19 can be in contact with the top rod 18. When the sliding frame 3 drives the air conditioner body 5 to move downward, when the top rods 18 on both sides of the sliding frame 3 drop to a certain distance, they will be in contact with the connecting block 19 connected to the end of the placement plate 11. Continuing to drop will cause the top rod 18 to press the connecting block 19, thereby causing the placement plate 11 to rotate, achieving the effect of automatically rotating and opening the placement plate 11.

[0034] As Figure 7 shown, it further includes a mounting seat 20, a limiting frame 21, an inclined plane stopper 22 and a tension spring 23. The mounting seat 20 is connected at intervals to the center of the bottom of the front side of the mounting frame 1. The limiting frame 21 is slidably connected to the mounting seat 20 together. The bottom of the limiting frame 21 is connected to the inclined plane stopper 22, and a tension spring 23 is provided between the inclined plane stopper 22 and the mounting seat 20.

[0035] When the control box 4 is opened, the limiting frame 21 needs to be moved upward first. When the limiting frame 21 is moved upward, it will also press the tension spring 23. Then, after opening the door of the control box 4, the limiting frame 21 is released. At this time, under the action of the tension spring 23, the limiting frame 21 will reset. At this time, the inclined plane stopper 22 will block the door of the control box 4, making it unable to close, thereby enabling the door of the control box 4 to continuously press the inclined plane extrusion rod 15, so that when unlocking the locking strip 7, there is no need to manually continuously pull the locking strip 7 or fix the door to continuously press the inclined plane extrusion rod 15 for unlocking.

[0036] As Figure 8 shown, it further includes a support seat 24 and a buffer assembly. The support seat 24 is connected to both the left and right sides of the bottom of the mounting frame 1, and a buffer assembly for providing buffering for the air conditioner body 5 is installed on the support seat 24.

[0037] The buffer assembly is composed of a buffer plate 25 and a shock-absorbing spring 26. The buffer plate 25 is slidably connected to the support seats 24 on both sides together, and a shock-absorbing spring 26 is provided between the buffer plate 25 and the support seat 24.

[0038] When the air conditioner main body 5 descends to the lowest height, the air conditioner main body 5 will come into contact with the buffer plate 25. At the same time, since a shock-absorbing spring 26 is provided between the buffer plate 25 and the support seat 24, the shock-absorbing spring 26 can absorb the impact force generated during the descent, and the buffer plate 25 can also prevent the air conditioner main body 5 from contacting the ground.

[0039] The above has introduced the present application in detail. Specific examples are used in this article to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present application; at the same time, for those of ordinary skill in the art, according to the idea of the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation manner and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
