Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a compressor device and an oxygen concentrator. Background Art

[0002] The oxygen generator uses air separation technology to compress the air at a high density and then use the different condensation points of the various components in the air to separate the gas and liquid at a certain temperature. The air is then distilled to separate it into oxygen and nitrogen to produce oxygen.

[0003] The compressor is an important component of the oxygen concentrator and is usually installed on a base. At present, elastic parts are usually set between the compressor and the base for buffering to reduce the noise generated when the compressor is running. Many parts are set near the compressor so that the oxygen concentrator can achieve related functions. During the actual operation of the oxygen concentrator, the effect achieved by its elastic parts is not only far from the expected effect that the elastic parts can achieve, but also easy to separate from the compression parts. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an oxygen concentrator that can enable the elastic parts to achieve the expected effect. Utility Model Content

[0011] As the elastic deformation section approaches the first connecting section, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connecting section continuously decreases; and / or,

[0012] As the elastic deformation section approaches the second connection section, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section decreases continuously.

[0013] In one embodiment, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connecting section decreases continuously from the direction where the elastic deformation section approaches the first connecting section to form a first opening, and the first opening is used to set the fixing portion; and / or,

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0032] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined.

The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only implementation method.

[0035] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , some embodiments of the present application provide a compressor device 100. The compressor device 100 includes a base 10, a compressor 20, and an elastic connection mechanism 30. The compressor 20 and the base 10 are arranged opposite to each other along the vertical direction X, and the elastic connection mechanism 30 is arranged between the base 10 and the compressor 20. The elastic connection mechanism 30 includes an elastic connection part 31 and a fixing part 32. The two ends of the elastic connection part 31 are respectively provided with a fixing part 32, and the two ends of the elastic connection part 31 are respectively connected to the base 10 and the compressor 20 through the fixing part 32.

[0036] The elastic connection part 31 and the fixing part 32 may be detachably connected, for example, they may be threaded or clamped. The elastic connection part 31 and the fixing part 32 may also be fixedly connected.

[0037] When the compressor 20 and the base 10 are assembled together, because the elastic connection mechanism 30 is located between the base 10 and the compressor 20, and the base 10, the elastic connection mechanism 30 and the compressor 20 are distributed along the vertical direction X, the compressor 20 can squeeze the elastic connection mechanism 30 under its own gravity, so that the elastic connection mechanism 30 can be deformed and generate elastic restoring force. In this way, the compressor 20 does not directly contact the base 10, but is connected to the base 10 through the elastic connection mechanism 30.

[0038] When the compressor 20 is running and shaking, the compressor 20 can squeeze the elastic connection mechanism 30 and drive the elastic connection mechanism 30 connected thereto to shake, thereby causing the elastic connection mechanism 30 to deform. Because the two ends of the elastic connection mechanism 30 are respectively connected to the base 10 and the compressor 20, the elastic connection mechanism 30, the base 10 and the compressor 20 are always connected together.

[0039] In addition, the elastic connection portion 31 of the elastic connection mechanism 30 is connected to the base 10 and the compressor 20 via the fixing portion 32 , so the entire elastic connection portion 31 can undergo elastic deformation.

[0040] In summary, by connecting the corresponding fixing portion 32 with the base 10 and the compressor 20, the two ends of the elastic connection mechanism 30 are respectively connected to the base 10 and the compressor 20, which not only simplifies the assembly method among the three, but also improves the connection stability of the elastic connection mechanism 30 assembled on the compressor 20 and the base 10. During the operation of the compressor 20, the probability of the elastic connection mechanism 30 being unable to achieve vibration reduction due to the separation of the elastic connection mechanism 30 and the compressor 20, thereby generating a large amount of noise, can be reduced.

[0041] In addition, compared with fixing most of the elastic connection mechanism 30 , only fixing the fixing portions 32 at both ends of the elastic connection mechanism 30 can reduce the impact on the shock absorbing effect of the elastic connection mechanism 30 .

[0042] Please refer to FIG. 2 . In some embodiments, along the extension direction of the elastic connection portion 31 , the elastic connection portion 31 is extended in a spiral shape.

[0043] Such a configuration can not only improve the elastic restoring force of the elastic connection part 31 , but also improve the strength of the elastic connection part 31 itself, thereby extending the service life of the elastic connection part 31 .

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the elastic connecting portion 31 includes a first connecting section 311, an elastic deformation section 312 and a second connecting section 313 connected in sequence, and a fixing portion 32 is provided at the end of the first connecting section 311 away from the elastic deformation section 312, and another fixing portion 32 is provided at the end of the second connecting section 313 away from the elastic deformation section 312.

[0045] As the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the first connection section 311 , the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section 311 decreases continuously; and / or as the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the second connection section 313 , the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section 311 decreases continuously.

[0046] In other words, the diameter of the spiral coil of at least one of the first connecting segment 311 and the second connecting segment 313 can be continuously reduced.

[0047] For example, in Figure 3 In the example shown, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connecting section 311 decreases continuously from the direction where the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the first connecting section 311. The end of the first connecting section 311 away from the elastic deformation section 312 is provided with a fixing portion 32. The diameter of the spiral coil of the first connecting section 311 decreases continuously from the direction where the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the second connecting section 313. The end of the second connecting section 313 away from the elastic deformation section 312 is also provided with a fixing portion 32.

[0048] The fixing portion 32 may be disposed inside the spiral coil at the end of each connecting segment. Of course, in other embodiments, the fixing portion 32 may also be disposed outside the spiral coil at the end of each connecting segment.

[0049] In this way, the elastic deformation portion is improved to enhance the connection stability between the elastic deformation portion and the fixing portion 32 .

[0050] For details, please continue to see Figure 3 In some embodiments, as the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the first connection section 311, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section 311 continuously decreases to form a first opening 3111, and the first opening 3111 is used to set the fixing portion 32; and / or, as the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the second connection section 313, the diameter of the spiral coil of the second connection section 313 continuously decreases to form a second opening, and the second opening is used to set the fixing portion 32.

[0051] In other words, at least one of the first connecting section 311 and the second connecting section 313 may have an end portion that forms an opening for disposing the fixing portion 32 .

[0052] For example, in Figure 3In the example shown, from the direction where the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the first connection section 311, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section 311 is continuously reduced and forms a first opening 3111. The first opening 3111 is used to set the fixing portion 32. From the direction where the elastic deformation section 312 approaches the second connection section 313, the diameter of the spiral coil of the first connection section 311 is continuously reduced and forms a second opening. The second opening is used to set the fixing portion 32.

[0053] In this way, the final shape of the first connecting section 311 and the second connecting section 313 is similar to the shape of a mosquito coil, and the fixing portion 32 can be stably arranged at each opening, thereby improving the connection stability between the elastic deformation portion and the fixing portion 32.

[0054] In some embodiments, at least one of the two ends of the elastic connecting portion 31 is connected to at least a portion of the corresponding fixing portion 32 .

[0055] That is, the end of the elastic connection part 31 can be in full contact with the surface of the fixing part 32, or the end of the elastic connection part 31 is only connected to a portion of the fixing part 32. The specific method can be determined according to actual conditions and is not limited here.

[0056] The above configuration expands the connection mode between the elastic connecting portion 31 and the fixing portion 32 .

[0057] In some embodiments, the first connecting segment 311 and the second connecting segment 313 are respectively welded to a fixing portion 32. This arrangement improves the connection stability between each connecting segment and the corresponding fixing portion 32 and reduces the probability of separation between the fixing portion 32 and the connecting segment.

[0058] See also Figure 3 Referring to FIG. 5 , in some embodiments, the fixing portion 32 includes a bolt 321 and a nut 322 , and the nut 322 is fixed to an end of the elastic connecting portion 31 .

[0059] For example, in the example shown in FIG5 , a nut 322 is provided at the first opening 3111 of the first connection section 311 of the elastic connection part 31, and a nut 322 is provided at the second opening of the second connection section 313 of the elastic connection part 31. A bolt 321 may be sequentially passed through the base 10 and one of the nuts 322 to connect one end of the elastic connection part 31 to the base 10. Another bolt 321 may be sequentially passed through the compression piece and another nut 322 to connect the other end of the elastic connection part 31 to the compression piece.

[0060] Such a configuration simplifies the assembly method of the elastic connection mechanism 30 , the base 10 and the compressor 20 , facilitates the installation of the elastic connection mechanism 30 between the base 10 and the compressor 20 , and reduces the difficulty of installing the elastic connection mechanism 30 .

[0061] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the fixing portion 32 includes a bolt 321 and a nut 322, and the bolt 321 is fixed to the end of the elastic connecting portion 31. The assembly method of the elastic connecting mechanism 30, the base 10 and the compressor 20 can be referred to the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0062] 5 , in some embodiments, the compressor device 100 further includes a buffer 40, and the buffer 40 is disposed between the elastic connection mechanism 30 and the base 10. The buffer 40 can be made of materials such as silicone.

[0063] When the compressor 20 is running, the compressor 20 first acts on the elastic connection mechanism 30. Since a buffer member 40 is provided between the elastic connection mechanism 30 and the base 10, the buffer member 40 can absorb a certain amount of energy, thereby further reducing the energy transmitted from the compressor 20 to the base 10 and causing the probability of the base 10 shaking.

[0064] Please continue to refer to FIG. 5 . In some embodiments, the buffer member 40 includes a first receiving groove and a second receiving groove. The first receiving groove accommodates part of the elastic connection mechanism 30 , and the second receiving groove is adapted to the mounting portion 11 of the base 10 .

[0065] The mounting portion 11 of the base 10 is provided with a through hole for the bolt 321 to pass through, and the first receiving groove and the second receiving groove of the buffer member 40 are connected.

[0066] In the actual assembly process, the bolt 321 can pass through the through hole of the mounting portion 11, the second receiving groove and the first receiving groove in sequence, thereby fixing the end of the elastic connection mechanism 30 to the base 10. Because the end of the elastic connection mechanism 30 is surrounded by the first receiving groove of the buffer member 40, the elastic connection mechanism 30 can be protected, reducing the probability of the elastic connection mechanism 30 being directly in contact with the base 10 and causing damage to the elastic connection mechanism 30.

[0067] In addition, some embodiments of the present application further provide an oxygen concentrator. The oxygen concentrator includes the compressor device 100 in any of the above embodiments. For the compressor device 100, please refer to the relevant contents recorded above, which will not be repeated here.

[0068] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0069] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
