Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of commercial air conditioners, and particularly relates to a rubber foot pad installed during factory production and used for protecting the foot of an external unit of a heat pump unit. Background Art
[0002] At present, the volume and weight of air source heat pump equipment are relatively large compared with other heating equipment. During the logistics transportation, due to the relatively heavy equipment, the heat pump outdoor unit is easily damaged under vibration conditions when bumps occur. In addition, during the use of the heat pump outdoor unit, in order to reduce the vibration and noise of the equipment on the ground, it is also necessary to install shock-absorbing rubber pads for protection.
[0003] The existing air source heat pump external unit is mainly transported by fixing the feet to the wooden frame by screws. The vibration during transportation will have a certain impact on the product. Secondly, when the product is installed on site, the protective gasket needs to be installed, which may cause unnecessary troubles such as missing installation. Therefore, in order to save installation time and protect the heat pump external unit during logistics transportation, the utility model provides a rubber foot pad for protecting the feet of the heat pump unit external unit. Utility Model Content
[0004] One purpose of the utility model is to provide a rubber foot pad for protecting the foot of the external unit of a heat pump unit, which effectively solves the problem that the external unit of the existing air source heat pump is damaged due to bumps during logistics transportation and the protective gasket is missing during on-site installation.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0006] A rubber foot pad for protecting the feet of an external unit of a heat pump unit. The rubber foot pad is provided with a transverse slot adapted to the feet of the external unit of the heat pump unit. The thickness of the rubber layer at the upper part of the transverse slot is less than the thickness of the rubber layer at the lower part of the transverse slot. A retaining through hole is provided at a position on the rubber foot pad corresponding to the bolt hole of the feet.
[0007] Furthermore, the inner side edge of the transverse slot is open.
[0008] Furthermore, the outer edge of the rubber foot pad is U-shaped, and the inner edge of the rubber foot pad is the same shape as the outer edge of the foot.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner edge of the rubber foot pad is M-shaped.
[0010] Furthermore, the thickness of the rubber layer at the upper portion of the transverse slot is 1 / 2 to 1 / 3 of the thickness of the rubber layer at the lower portion of the transverse slot.
[0011] Furthermore, all edges and corners of the rubber foot pad are processed into rounded corners.
[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the rubber layer at the upper portion of the transverse slot is 1 / 3 of the thickness of the rubber layer at the lower portion of the transverse slot.
[0013] Furthermore, the depth of the transverse slot is 2 / 3 of the width of the rubber foot pad.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the utility model are:
[0015] (1) The utility model reduces the possibility of the rubber foot pad falling off the foot through the position design of the transverse slot and the friction between the rubber material and the foot.
[0016] (2) The utility model provides sufficient support for the external unit of the heat pump unit by designing the transverse slot to be thin at the top and thick at the bottom, which not only effectively protects the ground or the bracket from being crushed by the external unit of the heat pump unit, but also effectively reduces the vibration and noise between the external unit of the heat pump unit and the bracket during operation, thereby improving the user experience.
[0017] (3) The rubber foot pad provided by the utility model is installed when the heat pump unit's external unit is produced and shipped out of the factory, which effectively prevents the problem of existing protective gaskets being missed during the on-site installation of the product, thereby saving on-site installation time.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "lateral", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0022] A rubber foot pad for protecting the external unit of a heat pump unit, such as Figure 1As shown, the rubber foot pad 1 is provided with a transverse slot 3 adapted to the foot 2 of the external unit of the heat pump unit, the thickness of the rubber layer 31 at the upper part of the transverse slot 3 is less than the thickness of the rubber layer 32 at the lower part of the transverse slot 3, and a retaining through hole 4 is provided at a position corresponding to the bolt hole of the foot 2 on the rubber foot pad 1.
[0023] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the rubber foot pad 1 and reduce the possibility of the rubber foot pad 1 falling off the ground foot 2, the inner side of the transverse slot 3 is opened and the outer side of the transverse slot 3 is closed.
[0024] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer edge of the rubber foot pad 1 is U-shaped, and the inner edge of the rubber foot pad 1 is the same shape as the outer edge of the foot 2. In this embodiment, the outer edge of the foot 2 is M-shaped, so the inner edge of the rubber foot pad 1 is also M-shaped.
[0025] In this embodiment, the thickness of the rubber layer 31 at the upper part of the transverse slot 3 is 1 / 2 to 1 / 3 of the thickness of the rubber layer 32 at the lower part of the transverse slot 3. Preferably, the thickness of the rubber layer 31 at the upper part of the transverse slot 3 is 1 / 3 of the thickness of the rubber layer 32 at the lower part of the transverse slot 3. By designing the rubber pad 1 to be thin at the top and thick at the bottom, the rubber pad 1 provides sufficient support for the external unit of the heat pump unit, effectively protecting the ground or the bracket from being crushed by the equipment.
[0026] In this embodiment, all the edges and corners of the rubber foot pad 1 are processed into rounded corners.
[0027] The method of using the utility model is as follows: when the heat pump unit is produced and shipped out of the factory, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the foot 2 of the outdoor unit of the heat pump unit is inserted into the transverse slot 3 of the rubber foot pad 1, thereby effectively preventing the problem of the existing protective gasket being missing when the product is installed on site.
[0028] During logistics transportation, the rubber foot pad 1 and the foot 2 are bolted together to the wooden base frame through the fixing through hole 4, which effectively prevents the external unit of the heat pump unit from being damaged due to bumps during logistics transportation.
[0029] When installed on site, the rubber foot pad 1 and the foot 2 are bolted together to the bracket for supporting the external unit of the heat pump unit through the fixing through hole 4. The vibration and noise between the external unit of the heat pump unit and the bracket during operation are effectively reduced, thereby improving the user experience.
[0030] The rubber foot pad 1 provided by the utility model is not easy to fall off, and the possibility of the rubber foot pad 1 falling off from the foot 2 is reduced through the design of the transverse slot 3 and the friction between the rubber material and the foot 2. In addition, through the design of the transverse slot 3 being thin at the top and thick at the bottom, sufficient support is provided for the external unit of the heat pump unit, which not only effectively protects the ground or the bracket from being crushed by the external unit of the heat pump unit, but also effectively reduces the vibration and noise between the external unit of the heat pump unit and the bracket during operation, thereby improving the user experience.
[0031] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
