[0032] It should be further understood that the term “and / or” used in the present specification and the appended claims refers to any combination and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items, and includes these combinations.

[0033] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides an anti-breaking pipe structure for preventing equipment pipelines from breaking. The anti-breaking pipe structure includes a driving assembly, a transmission assembly 10 and an anti-breaking piece 20. The driving assembly is connected to the transmission assembly 10 and can drive the transmission assembly 10 to move. The anti-breaking piece 20 is located within the movable range of the transmission assembly 10. The transmission assembly 10 can push the anti-breaking piece 20 to fit the outside of the pipeline to increase the wall thickness of the pipeline.

[0034] In this embodiment, the device may be an air conditioner or other device that may generate vibration. This embodiment and subsequent embodiments are mainly described by taking the air conditioner as an example, but it is obvious that those skilled in the art can also apply the above-mentioned anti-breaking pipe structure to other required equipment. The pipe may be an air intake pipe or an exhaust pipe of an air conditioner, etc. The anti-breaking pipe structure includes the following parts: a drive assembly (not shown in the figure), a transmission assembly 10 and an anti-breaking piece 20. The drive assembly is the power source of the anti-breaking pipe structure, which is responsible for providing power to drive the entire anti-breaking pipe structure to work. The drive assembly may be an electric motor, a hydraulic or pneumatic system, etc., and a suitable type may be selected according to actual application requirements. The transmission assembly 10 is connected to the drive assembly and driven by the power of the drive assembly. The main function of the transmission assembly 10 is to transmit the power of the drive assembly and convert it into a force to push the anti-breaking piece 20 to move. The transmission assembly 10 can be designed in the form of gears, chains or transmission belts to ensure power transmission efficiency. As a core component, the anti-breaking piece 20 is located within the movable range of the transmission assembly 10, that is, the transmission assembly 10 has a predetermined trajectory and can move back and forth along the trajectory, that is, the trajectory is usually a straight line, and the anti-breaking piece 20 is located on the trajectory. When the transmission assembly 10 is driven, the transmission assembly 10 can push the anti-breakage member 20 to move along a predetermined trajectory (such as moving up and down) and fit against the outside of the pipe.

[0035] Under normal working conditions, the drive assembly drives the transmission assembly 10, and the transmission assembly 10 pushes the anti-breakage member 20 to move toward the outside of the pipeline. After the anti-breakage member 20 contacts the outside of the pipeline, it increases the wall thickness of the pipeline through physical adhesion. This increased wall thickness can improve the compressive strength and durability of the pipeline, thereby effectively preventing the pipeline from breaking due to excessive pressure or external impact. By implementing the solution of the present application, the pipeline can be protected from breaking in a severely bumpy transportation environment, thereby extending the service life of the pipeline.

[0036] In one embodiment, the shape of the anti-break member 20 is adapted to the shape of the pipe.

[0037] In this embodiment, the shape design of the anti-break piece 20 generally takes into account the outer diameter and curvature of the pipeline. When the pipeline is a cylindrical pipeline, the anti-break piece 20 is designed to be in an arc shape that fits the surface of the pipeline. This not only increases the coverage area of ​​the anti-break piece 20, but also ensures that a uniform supporting force is applied to the entire outer surface of the pipeline, effectively reducing pipeline rupture caused by stress concentration.

[0038] The anti-break piece 20 is usually fixed to the pipe by interference fit. Interference fit is a mechanical interference fit, in which the inner diameter of the anti-break piece 20 is close to the outer diameter of the pipe, where close can mean that the inner diameter of the anti-break piece 20 is slightly smaller than, equal to, or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pipe, so that a tight fit is produced during assembly. This connection method ensures that the anti-break piece 20 will not fall off even if the entire device is shaken violently.

[0039] After the anti-break piece 20 is installed on the surface of the pipeline, the anti-break piece 20 can effectively disperse the force transmitted through the pipeline to avoid excessive stress concentration at a certain point. This uniform force distribution improves the pressure resistance and durability of the pipeline, especially for vibrations and shocks often encountered during transportation. By installing the anti-break piece 20 on the outside of the pipeline, the frequency of repairing and replacing the pipeline can be reduced, thereby reducing maintenance costs and improving the operating efficiency of the entire system. The anti-break piece 20 of this design provides a stable and reliable protection solution for the pipeline through its efficient shape adaptation and fixing method. The anti-break piece 20 can protect the pipeline under various operating and environmental conditions, prevent damage caused by transportation and daily use, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0040] When the drive assembly is started, the drive transmission assembly 10 drives the anti-breakage piece 20 to move toward the outside of the pipeline along a predetermined trajectory. Since the shape of the anti-breakage piece 20 is adapted to the shape of the pipeline, the anti-breakage piece 20 can fit smoothly and tightly on the outside of the pipeline, which increases the overall wall thickness of the pipeline and effectively disperses the stress generated on the pipeline surface due to internal pressure or external impact. Through the thickening effect of the anti-breakage piece 20, the pressure resistance of the pipeline is improved, reducing the risk of pipeline breakage caused by excessive pressure or accidental impact. This not only improves the overall safety of the pipeline system, but also extends the service life of the pipeline.

[0041] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the transmission assembly 10 includes a transmission shaft 11 and a gear 12. A helical tooth 111 is provided on the outer side of the transmission shaft 11. The helical tooth 111 is meshedly connected with the gear 12. The driving assembly is connected to the gear 12 and can drive the gear 12 to rotate to drive the transmission shaft 11 to move.

[0042] In this embodiment, the outer side of the transmission shaft 11 has a helical tooth 111, and the helical tooth 111 enables the transmission shaft 11 to provide continuous power transmission when rotating. The gear 12 is meshed and connected with the helical tooth 111, forming a compact and efficient transmission mechanism. The design of the gear 12 needs to take into account the meshing angle and tooth shape with the helical tooth 111 to ensure stability during the movement. The rotation of the gear 12 is converted into the linear motion of the transmission shaft 11 through the meshing relationship with the transmission shaft 11. This design converts the rotational motion into a linear motion along a predetermined trajectory. The output end of the drive assembly is directly connected to the gear 12, which is responsible for driving the gear 12 to rotate. For example, the output end of the drive assembly is an output shaft, which is fixedly connected to the center hole of the gear 12, and the gear 12 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the output shaft. This driving method can reduce transmission losses and improve the response speed of the entire system. The drive assembly is started. When the drive assembly drives the gear 12 to rotate in a predetermined direction (such as clockwise), the gear 12 drives the meshing helical teeth 111 to transfer force to the transmission shaft 11, so that the transmission shaft 11 moves in the positive direction of the predetermined trajectory, where the positive direction can be defined as the direction toward the pipeline; through the meshing mechanism of the transmission shaft 11 and the gear 12, it is ensured that the anti-fracture member 20 can be effectively attached to the pipeline, thereby enhancing the pipeline's anti-fracture ability. When the drive assembly drives the gear 12 to rotate in the opposite direction of the predetermined direction (such as counterclockwise), the gear 12 drives the meshing helical teeth 111 to transfer force to the transmission shaft 11, so that the transmission shaft 11 moves in the opposite direction of the predetermined trajectory.

[0043] In one embodiment, one end of the transmission assembly 10 is fixedly connected to the anti-breakage member 20 or is abutted against the anti-breakage member 20 when the anti-breakage member 20 is pushed to fit the pipeline.

[0044] In this embodiment, the gear 12 starts to rotate in a predetermined direction, and this rotation is converted into a linear motion of the transmission shaft 11 through the meshing of the gear 12 and the transmission shaft 11 (such as a worm), pushing the anti-breaking member 20 to move in the positive direction along the predetermined trajectory, thereby pushing the anti-breaking member 20. For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transmission shaft 11 drives the anti-breaking member 20 to move downward under the drive of the gear 12 until the anti-breaking member 20 contacts the pipe (such as the exhaust pipe) (the movement process can be referred to Figure 1 to Figure 2 When the anti-breakage member 20 contacts the pipeline, it is stuck due to the force, forming an interference fit.

[0045] The transmission component 10 can be connected to the anti-breaking piece 20 in two ways: the first is that one end of the transmission component 10 is fixedly connected to the anti-breaking piece 20. In this connection mode, the anti-breaking piece 20 will move back and forth with the transmission component 10, that is, when the transmission component 10 is close to the pipeline, it drives the anti-breaking piece 20 to fit the pipeline, and when the transmission component 10 is away from the pipeline, it drives the anti-breaking piece 20 away from the pipeline. Therefore, when it is necessary to prevent breaking for a long time, the transmission component 10 needs to be kept in the same state to always hold the anti-breaking piece 20 against the pipeline. Only when it is not necessary to prevent breaking, the transmission component 10 can drive the anti-breaking piece 20 away from the pipeline. Since the transmission component 10 is always against the pipeline when it is necessary to prevent breaking, in this connection mode, the anti-breaking piece 20 and the pipeline do not need to adopt the interference fit method, and the shapes of the two can be matched.

[0046] The second type is that one end of the transmission component 10 is not fixedly connected to the anti-breaking piece 20. In the initial state, one end of the transmission component 10 is not in contact with the anti-breaking piece 20, but the anti-breaking piece 20 is located on a predetermined track and between one end of the transmission component 10 and the pipeline. When the transmission component 10 approaches the pipeline, it pushes the anti-breaking piece 20 to fit on the pipeline. After the fitting is completed, even if the transmission component 10 is withdrawn, the anti-breaking piece 20 still remains on the pipeline due to the interference fit. That is, after the transmission component 10 approaches the pipeline and squeezes the anti-breaking piece 20 to fit on the pipeline, after the fitting is completed, the transmission component 10 returns to its original position away from the pipeline.

[0047] In the above two connection methods, since the first connection method is a fixed connection, only the anti-breaking piece 20 of fixed thickness can be added, and the number of the anti-breaking pieces 20 cannot be flexibly configured, that is, the anti-breaking requirements under different stress and strain values ​​cannot be met. Therefore, in the scenario where the number of anti-breaking pieces 20 needs to be flexibly configured, the second connection method can be used. In this connection method, combined with Figure 4 As shown, an anti-breaking component storage device 30 may be added to the anti-breaking pipe structure, and the anti-breaking component storage device 30 is used to store a plurality of anti-breaking components 20 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the anti-breaking piece storage device 30 can store multiple anti-breaking pieces 20 to ensure that the anti-breaking pieces 20 can be deployed when needed. The anti-breaking piece storage device 30 can be a cylinder that can provide multiple stacked anti-breaking pieces 20. The anti-breaking piece storage device 30 can also be a mechanical storage grid that can accommodate multiple anti-breaking pieces 20.

[0049] In some embodiments, a pop-up structure can also be provided on the anti-breaking piece storage device 30, for popping out the anti-breaking pieces 20 on the anti-breaking piece storage device 30 one by one to the movable range of the transmission assembly 10. For example, the pop-up structure includes: a height adjustment mechanism, a push rod driving mechanism and a push rod, the push rod is arranged on the push rod driving mechanism, the push rod driving mechanism is arranged on the height adjustment mechanism, the height adjustment mechanism can adjust the height of the push rod driving mechanism, for example, the height adjustment mechanism can include a vertical slide rail and a vertical slider slidingly arranged on the vertical slide rail and a height driving member, the height driving member is connected to the vertical slider, and can drive the vertical slider to move up and down on the vertical slide rail. The push rod driving mechanism is arranged on the vertical slider, so as to adjust the height of the push rod driving mechanism. The push rod driving mechanism includes a transverse slide rail and a transverse driving member, the transverse driving member is connected to the push rod, and the transverse driving member can drive the push rod to slide back and forth horizontally.

[0050] The pop-up structure can be arranged at one end of the anti-breaking piece storage device 30, and a plurality of anti-breaking pieces 20 are stacked on the anti-breaking piece storage device 30. In the initial state, the height adjustment mechanism adjusts the height of the push rod driving mechanism to correspond to the highest anti-breaking piece 20, so that the push rod is flush with the highest anti-breaking piece 20, thereby pushing the highest anti-breaking piece 20 to a predetermined track. When the highest anti-breaking piece 20 is pushed out, the height adjustment mechanism adjusts the height of the push rod driving mechanism to correspond to the highest (originally the second highest) anti-breaking piece 20 again, thereby pushing the highest anti-breaking piece 20 again.

[0051] The anti-breaking piece storage device 30 works together with the transmission assembly 10, that is, when the anti-breaking piece 20 needs to be added, the controller simultaneously sends control instructions to the drive assembly, the height adjustment mechanism and the push rod drive mechanism. When the anti-breaking piece 20 is added, the various components should work together, the height adjustment mechanism adjusts the height, the push rod drive mechanism pushes out the anti-breaking piece 20, and the transmission assembly 10 pushes the anti-breaking piece 20 onto the pipeline, that is, the anti-breaking pieces 20 are sent one by one to the corresponding pipeline that needs to be thickened.

[0052] In one embodiment, the anti-breakage member 20 is made of copper.

[0053] In this embodiment, the material of the anti-break piece 20 is copper, and this choice is based on the excellent physical and chemical properties of copper. When the anti-break piece 20 is made of copper, the thickness is usually 0.25 mm and the length is usually 125 mm. Copper is a metal with good ductility and toughness, while providing excellent corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity, which makes copper an ideal choice for increasing the wall thickness of the pipeline to prevent breakage. The high thermal conductivity of copper also helps to dissipate heat evenly in the pipeline system and prevent material fatigue caused by large temperature differences. When the anti-break piece 20 is pushed to the outside of the pipeline by the transmission assembly 10, the ductility and toughness of copper allow it to fit tightly to the surface of the pipeline.

[0054] Combination Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, a stress strain sensor 40 is provided on the pipeline.

[0055] In this embodiment, the stress strain sensor 40 can monitor the stress and strain of the pipeline and upload the detection results to the controller. The controller can be a separate controller of the anti-breaking pipe structure, or it can be integrated in the overall control system of the equipment. The controller can automatically issue control instructions to adjust the pipeline wall thickness according to the detection results. The stress strain sensor 40 is installed on the pipeline to monitor the stress strain value X of the pipeline in real time during operation or transportation, preferably monitoring the stress strain value X of the pipeline in the vertical direction. The stress strain sensor 40 can continuously collect data and transmit the data to the controller. The controller is responsible for analyzing the data and determining whether the stress of the pipeline exceeds the preset safety threshold X1 (for example, 350μ). Please refer to the following table for detailed introduction of the meaning of the letters:

[0056] Serial number letter meaning 1 X Stress-strain value (μ) 2 <![CDATA[X1]]> Pipeline (pipeline) stress standard value 350μ 3 Y Pipeline (pipeline) wall thickness

[0057] Taking the transportation scenario as an example, when the stress-strain value X detected by the stress-strain sensor 40 is less than 350μ, the pipeline status is judged to be normal and normal transportation continues. When the stress-strain value X reaches or exceeds 350μ, the emergency response mechanism is activated at this time, and the controller issues a command to increase the pipeline wall thickness to reduce stress. The thickness of the pipeline increases by 0.25mm each time, and the maximum thickening can reach 1mm. The process of increasing the pipeline wall thickness is carried out in stages until the controller confirms that the stress-strain value X detected by the stress-strain sensor 40 drops below 350μ, and the current round of wall thickness increase action (each round of wall thickness increase action may include multiple additions of anti-breakage parts 20) ends. The stress-strain sensor 40 continuously monitors the adjusted stress-strain value X to ensure that the stress-strain value X after each round of wall thickness increase is lower than the safety threshold X1 (ie, 350μ).

[0058] The embodiment of the utility model further provides an air conditioner, comprising an air conditioner body 100 and a pipe 200 disposed in the air conditioner body 100 , wherein the air conditioner body 100 is further provided with the anti-breaking pipe structure as described above.

[0059] In this embodiment, the anti-breaking pipe structure is particularly suitable for all-in-one air conditioners. The pipe 200 is arranged in the air conditioner body 100. The pipe 200 is a key transmission medium, including an air intake pipe and an exhaust pipe. During the transportation or operation of the air conditioner, if the stress-strain value of the pipe 200 exceeds 350μ, the control instruction is triggered to push the anti-breaking member 20 to the designated air intake pipe or exhaust pipe.

[0060] In addition, the air conditioner body 100 is also provided with an evaporation side centrifugal fan blade 101 and a condensation side centrifugal fan blade 102, which are responsible for generating airflow inside the air conditioner to promote the heat exchange process. The evaporation side centrifugal fan blade 101 and the condensation side centrifugal fan blade 102 rotate at high speed to inhale and push out air, thereby improving the cooling efficiency. The evaporation side centrifugal fan blade 101 is correspondingly provided with an evaporation side evaporator 103, which evaporates the refrigerant and absorbs the heat of the surrounding air, thereby reducing the air temperature. The condensation side centrifugal fan blade 102 is correspondingly provided with a condensation side condenser 104, which can release heat to the external environment. The air conditioner body 100 is also provided with an electrical box component 105, which can receive the stress and strain signal of the air conditioning pipe and process the stress and strain signal. The electrical box component 105 serves as the control center of the system, and monitors and adjusts the air conditioning state by analyzing data to ensure safety during transportation and use. The air conditioner body 100 is also provided with a compressor 106, which can drive the refrigerant circulation. In the case of an all-in-one machine, especially a portable all-in-one machine, the pipeline 200 is usually distributed on the evaporation side evaporator 103 ( Figure 4 left side) and condensation side condenser 104 ( Figure 4 Therefore, the anti-broken pipe structure is also correspondingly arranged on the evaporator 103 ( Figure 4 left side) and condensation side condenser 104 ( Figure 4 The evaporator 103 on the evaporation side is also provided with an evaporation side air outlet 107 , and the condenser 104 on the condensation side is also provided with a condensation side air outlet 108 .

[0061] In one embodiment, the pipeline 200 includes an exhaust pipe 201 and an intake pipe 202, and the exhaust pipe 201 and the intake pipe 202 are both provided with the anti-breaking pipe structure.

[0062] In this embodiment, the pipe 200 of the air conditioning system is designed to include an exhaust pipe 201 and an intake pipe 202, both of which are equipped with an anti-breaking pipe structure to improve their durability during transportation and use. The exhaust pipe 201 and the intake pipe 202 are responsible for the discharge and suction of the refrigerant, respectively. An anti-breaking pipe structure is designed for the exhaust pipe 201 and the intake pipe 202, and the anti-breaking pipe structure includes a pre-set anti-breaking part 20. The anti-breaking part 20 is deployed to the corresponding pipeline position according to demand to increase the wall thickness of the pipeline. A plurality of stress-strain sensors 40 can be provided, for example, respectively provided in the exhaust pipe 201 and the intake pipe 202, to monitor the stress-strain values ​​of the two respectively.

[0063] In order to explain the working principle of the anti-breakage part 20 in more detail, a specific application example is used here to show how it can effectively protect the pipeline in actual operation, using the exhaust pipe 201 in the air conditioner as an application scenario. Assume that an air conditioner is in the process of transportation, and the device is subjected to severe vibration due to road bumps. These severe vibrations cause excessive stress to the exhaust pipe 201 inside the air conditioner, increasing the risk of fracture. The stress strain sensor 40 continuously monitors the stress and strain state of the exhaust pipe 201. The stress strain sensor 40 monitors the stress and strain value of the exhaust pipe 201 in real time and uploads it to the controller. When the controller determines that the stress and strain value exceeds the safety threshold (such as 350μ), the controller sends a control instruction to the drive assembly, the height adjustment mechanism and the push rod drive mechanism. After the drive assembly receives the control instruction, the drive gear 12 starts to rotate clockwise. The rotation of the gear 12 is converted into the linear motion of the transmission shaft 11 by meshing with the transmission shaft 11 (worm design). The transmission shaft 11 moves toward the exhaust pipe 201 along a predetermined trajectory. The push rod driving mechanism pushes the anti-breakage piece 20 to move toward the predetermined track, and is located on the predetermined track before one end of the transmission shaft 11 arrives, so that the transmission shaft 11 can push the anti-breakage piece 20 to move toward the exhaust pipe 201 until it contacts the surface of the exhaust pipe 201. Since the design of the anti-breakage piece 20 matches the shape of the exhaust pipe 201 (interference connection design), the anti-breakage piece 20 can fit on the exhaust pipe 201 and will not fall off even in subsequent vibrations.

[0064] After the anti-breakage piece 20 is successfully deployed, the drive gear 12 of the drive assembly starts to rotate counterclockwise, so that the transmission shaft 11 moves away from the exhaust pipe 201 along the predetermined trajectory. However, due to the interference fit between the anti-breakage piece 20 and the exhaust pipe 201, the anti-breakage piece 20 continues to remain on the exhaust pipe 201. The stress strain sensor 40 continues to monitor the stress strain state of the exhaust pipe 201. When the controller determines that the stress strain value uploaded in real time by the stress strain sensor 40 still exceeds the safety threshold, the controller sends a control instruction to the drive assembly, the height adjustment mechanism and the push rod drive mechanism. After the drive assembly receives the control instruction, the drive gear 12 starts to rotate clockwise, so that the transmission shaft 11 moves toward the exhaust pipe 201 along the predetermined trajectory. The new anti-breakage piece 20 moves toward the predetermined trajectory and is located on the predetermined trajectory before the new anti-breakage piece 20 arrives, so that the transmission shaft 11 can push the new anti-breakage piece 20 to move toward the exhaust pipe 201 until it contacts the surface of the exhaust pipe 201. This is repeated until the stress strain value X is lower than the safety threshold X1 (i.e., 350μ), and this round of wall thickness increase action ends.

[0065] By controlling the deployment of the anti-breakage piece 20, the exhaust pipe 201 is thickened, which reduces the risk of exhaust pipe 201 rupture due to excessive stress. The use of the anti-breakage piece 20 also reduces the maintenance and replacement costs caused by damage to the exhaust pipe 201, and improves the overall reliability of the equipment. The system can automatically take measures to prevent equipment failure or damage when the exhaust pipe 201 is subjected to large vibrations.

[0066] In summary, the present application is adapted for air conditioning, and a stress-strain sensor 40 is added to monitor the stress changes of the pipeline in real time, and determine whether the stress-strain of the pipeline exceeds the preset safety threshold of 350 microns (μ); if the detection value exceeds this safety threshold, the anti-pipe break structure is automatically activated, and the wall thickness is increased by 0.25 mm each time, thereby reducing the stress by 16% until the stress-strain value is reduced to a safe range. The function of automatically adjusting the pipe wall thickness enhances the pipe's ability to resist fracture during transportation, and effectively prevents common damage problems during operation or transportation. By continuously monitoring and immediately responding to excessive stress, refrigerant leakage that may be caused by pipe damage is reduced, and the transportation and operation safety of the entire air-conditioning system is increased.

[0067] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, and these modifications or replacements should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
