Implementation
[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0029] It should be noted that in the description of the present invention, the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up", "down", "inside", "outside", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention rather than requiring that the present invention must be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. The terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up", and "down" used in the description of the present invention refer to the directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "inside" and "outside" refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a water pump fixing structure includes a main bracket 1, the main bracket 1 includes a first bracket 11 and a second bracket 12 connected to the outside of the first bracket 11; the second bracket 12 is provided with a second connecting hole 121 for connecting the water pump drainage pipe 7; an installation space 111 for installing the water pump 3 is formed in the first bracket 11, and the first bracket 11 is provided with a first connecting hole 112 connected to the installation space 111, so that the two ends of the drainage hose 9 are respectively located on the inner and outer sides of the first bracket 11.
[0031] The first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12 of the present application are integral structures, which can be welded into a whole in advance or bent into one piece. The integral structure is conducive to the installation of the main bracket 1 and does not require complicated assembly steps.
[0032] When in use, first install the water pump into the installation space, connect the water pump drain pipe to the second connecting hole, then pass the drain hose through the first connecting hole, connect the end inside the first bracket to the water pump, and the end outside the first bracket to the water pump drain pipe. Finally, install the main bracket with the water pump and the drain hose into the water tray. This form of installation is simple and efficient, does not require secondary assembly, and avoids the problem of high leakage rate caused by secondary assembly.
[0033] In a further embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the first bracket 11 is in the shape of a "X", which includes an upper horizontal plate and vertical plates located at both ends of the horizontal plate and perpendicular to the horizontal plate. The installation space 111 is formed in the area surrounded by the horizontal plate and the vertical plates.
[0034] Furthermore, the horizontal plate and the vertical plate are integrally formed, specifically, they can be formed by bending a whole plate, and the bending forming form can ensure the structural strength of the first bracket 11. The bottoms of the vertical plates on both sides are bent away from the installation space 111 for connecting the bottom bracket.
[0035] Specifically, Figure 1-3 As shown, the bottom bracket includes a bottom left bracket 4 and a bottom right bracket 10. The bottom left bracket 4 is Z-shaped, has a reinforced folded edge on the side, and has a round hole on the top that is fixedly connected to the bottom bend of the left vertical plate of the first bracket 11 by two screws.
[0036] The bottom right bracket 10 is Z-shaped, with a reinforced folded edge on the side and an upward obtuse folded edge in the middle of the top. There is a notch in the bend at the bottom of the right vertical plate of the first bracket 11, which is used to insert under the obtuse angle of the top of the bottom right bracket 10, and plays a screw-free fixing role for the compact internal position.
[0037] After the bottom left bracket 4 and the bottom right bracket 10 are connected, their bottom surfaces are flush and located in the same plane, and can be directly placed in the water pan of the air conditioner, and connected in the water pan by welding, clamping or direct placement.
[0038] In the present application, the second bracket 12 is located above the first bracket 11 and is perpendicular to the cross plate of the first bracket 11. In order to ensure the strength of the second bracket 12, two ribs are bent in the length direction of the second bracket 12 to ensure the overall structural strength of the connection between the second bracket 12 and the first bracket 11.
[0039] In a further embodiment, a water pump mounting bracket 2 for mounting the water pump 3 is designed, the water pump mounting bracket 2 is in the shape of a "F", and is fixedly connected to the main body bracket 1 through the circular hole of the top plate by four screws, and the short folded edges on both sides of the water pump mounting bracket 2 are fixedly connected to the water pump main body 3 by two screws. The screw connection facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the water pump 3.
[0040] Furthermore, after the humidification water inlet pipe 6 passes through the third connection hole 122 of the second bracket 12, it is connected to the main bracket 1 through two screws.
[0041] After the water pump drain pipe 7 passes through the second connection hole 121 of the second bracket 12, it is connected to the main bracket 1 through two screws.
[0042] like Figure 3As shown, the drainage hose 9 of the present application is a special-shaped structure, and the outer wall is covered with a protective tube spring 8 to reduce the deformation of the corner of the drainage hose 9 and prevent excessive local resistance during drainage. Furthermore, a protective sheath 5 is also provided at the connection between the protective tube spring 8 and the first connection hole 112 to ensure the safety of the drainage hose 9 at the plate.
[0043] A sheath 5 is also connected to the vertical plate of the first bracket 11 located on the side of the bottom right bracket 10, and the sheath is used to protect the water pump cable.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present application, an air conditioner is also disclosed, which includes the water pump fixing structure provided in any embodiment of the present application.
[0045] It is known from common technical knowledge that the present invention can be implemented by other embodiments that do not deviate from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
