Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile air-conditioning pipeline connection, in particular to an integrated pipe clamp. Background Art

[0002] Automobile air-conditioning pipelines are pipeline assemblies used to connect the various components of automobile air-conditioning. Automobile air-conditioning pipelines are divided into high-pressure pipelines and low-pressure pipelines. High-pressure pipelines and low-pressure pipelines are connected to the components in the air-conditioning system through different connectors. The installation directions of high-pressure pipelines, low-pressure pipelines and other pipelines are relatively complicated. When the car is driving, the car body vibrates, which causes the pipelines to vibrate and collide, generating noise.

[0003] In the related art, reference may be made to the Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN205264034U, which discloses an automobile air-conditioning pipe connection system, including a connector, the connector including a connected pipe clamp and a connecting part, the connecting part being connected to the vehicle body, the pipe clamp being annular and sleeved on the air-conditioning pipe, a shock-absorbing pad being provided on the inner surface of the pipe clamp, and the shock-absorbing pad being in contact with the air-conditioning pipe.

[0004] During installation, the pipe clamp is placed on the air-conditioning pipeline. The pipe clamp is provided with a shock-absorbing pad. The shock-absorbing pad reduces the vibration between the pipe clamp and the air-conditioning pipeline, thereby reducing the noise generated by vibration and collision. However, there are many automobile air-conditioning pipelines, so it is necessary to repeatedly install multiple connectors, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive to install, but also easily affects the position of adjacent connectors. When the space for arranging the air-conditioning pipeline is relatively narrow, adjacent connectors are prone to collision and damage, and need to be adjusted in position, thus reducing the convenience of arranging the automobile air-conditioning pipeline. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to improve the convenience of arranging automobile air-conditioning pipelines, the utility model provides an integrated pipe clamp.

[0006] The present application provides an integrated pipe clamp, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An integrated pipe clamp comprises a pipe seat, wherein the pipe seat is provided with a plurality of clamping grooves arranged in sequence along the outer circumference direction of the pipe seat, wherein an elastic clamping ring for clamping the pipeline is arranged in the clamping groove, and wherein the elastic clamping ring is provided with a connecting port which is opposite to and connected with the opening of the clamping groove. When clamping, the pipeline enters the elastic clamping ring through the opening of the clamping groove and the connecting port, and the pipe seat and the elastic clamping ring are integrally injection molded.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the pipeline is pushed into the elastic clamp ring through the slot opening and the connecting port, and the elastic clamp ring clamps and limits the pipeline to control the direction of the multiple pipelines. The slots are arranged in sequence along the outer circumference of the pipe seat, so that the axial directions of each pipeline are parallel to each other, which not only improves the convenience of the automobile air-conditioning pipeline layout, but also saves installation space and improves the layout effect of the automobile air-conditioning pipeline.

[0009] Optionally, the opening of the card slot and the communication port gradually increases from the inside to the outside.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the pipeline is pushed through the slot opening and the connecting port, and the slot opening and the connecting port produce elastic deformation. When the pipeline is installed in the elastic clamping ring, the connecting port and the slot opening rebound to block the pipeline, thereby realizing the installation and limitation of the pipeline and improving the convenience of pipeline installation and limitation.

[0011] Optionally, the elastic clamping ring has a plurality of inwardly protruding teeth, and when clamped, the plurality of protruding teeth press against the pipeline and are used to limit the pipeline.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the pipeline is installed in the elastic clamp ring, the pipeline squeezes the convex teeth to produce deformation, and the convex teeth press against the pipeline to limit the pipeline, so as to improve the limiting effect of the pipeline, reduce the probability of the pipeline shaking, and improve the stability of the pipeline, thereby improving the convenience and layout effect of the automobile air-conditioning pipeline.

[0013] Optionally, a connection between the protruding tooth and the slot opening has an arc-shaped guide surface.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide surface improves the convenience of pipeline installation and reduces the probability of scratches during pipeline installation.

[0015] Optionally, the elastic collar has a plurality of deformation holes penetrating the elastic collar / convex teeth.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the deformation hole provides deformation space for the elastic clamp ring and the convex teeth, reducing the probability of direct damage of the elastic clamp ring and the convex teeth when elastic deformation occurs, thereby improving the use effect of the elastic clamp ring.

[0017] Optionally, a plurality of weight-reducing grooves are provided on the tube seat.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the weight-reducing groove can not only reduce the overall weight of the tube seat, but also reduce the shrinkage and deformation of the tube seat during the production process.

[0019] Optionally, the tube seat is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs in sequence along the circumferential direction.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing ribs improve the rigidity of the pipe seat.

[0021] Optionally, the tube seat is made of plastic, and the elastic clamp ring is made of rubber.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, a tube seat is made of plastic material, and then the tube seat is placed in a mold cavity of a rubber injection molding machine, and the rubber material is injected through a rubber injection molding process to achieve injection molding of the elastic clamp and the tube seat. Plastic and rubber materials are light and elastic and occupy a small space, thereby reducing the space occupied by the automobile air-conditioning system pipeline layout and improving the layout effect of the automobile air-conditioning pipeline.

[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] The pipeline is pushed into the elastic clamp ring through the slot opening and the connecting port. The elastic clamp ring clamps and limits the pipeline to control the direction of the multiple pipelines. The slots are arranged in sequence along the outer circumference of the pipe seat, so that the axial directions of each pipeline are parallel to each other, which not only improves the convenience of automobile air-conditioning pipeline layout, but also saves installation space and improves the layout effect of automobile air-conditioning pipeline.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pipe seat 1 is made of plastic, such as ABS (acrylonitrile-styrene-butadiene copolymer) or nylon material, and the elastic clamp ring 3 is made of rubber, such as NBR (nitrile rubber) or HNBR (hydrogenated nitrile rubber). In this embodiment, the pipe seat 1 is provided with four card slots 2, including a first card slot 21, a second card slot 22, a third card slot 23 and a fourth card slot 24. The axes of the four card slots 2 are parallel to the axis of the pipeline. The elastic clamp ring 3 corresponds to the card slot 2 one by one. The elastic clamp ring 3 is coaxially fixed in the corresponding card slot 2. The inner diameter of the elastic clamp ring 3 is determined according to the diameter of the pipeline to be fixed.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the first card slot 21 is used to assemble the refrigeration low-pressure pipe 25, the second card slot 22 is used to assemble the refrigeration high-pressure pipe 26, the third card slot 23 and the fourth card slot 24 are respectively equipped with the heat exchange water inlet pipe 27 and the water outlet pipe 28.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The opening of the slot 2 and the connecting port 31 gradually increases from the inside to the outside, presenting a trumpet shape. The elastic clamp 3 has a plurality of inwardly protruding convex teeth 32. When clamped, the pipeline passes through the opening of the slot 2 and the connecting port 31 and enters the elastic clamp 3. The plurality of convex teeth 32 press against the outer wall of the pipeline and are used to limit the pipeline.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A circular guide surface 33 is provided at the connection between the convex tooth 32 and the opening of the slot 2.
