Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment manufacturing, in particular to a novel positioning-free sheet metal air duct. Background Art
[0002] Sheet metal ducts are essential components in refrigeration equipment, and usually require welding to assemble and fix the internal components; traditional sheet metal ducts such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the partitions and side panels in the duct cavity are difficult to position inside the duct shell before welding, resulting in inaccurate welding dimensions. In order to ensure the accuracy of the welding dimensions, it is usually necessary to use positioning fixtures to position them before welding. In deep and complex duct cavities, positioning fixtures cannot be used, resulting in the inability to position and fix them, which makes the assembly difficulty increase sharply and the welding dimension deviation is large. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a new type of sheet metal air duct that does not require positioning. When welding partitions and side panels, accurate positioning can be achieved through their own positioning grooves, positioning ports and positioning claws, without the need for positioning with the aid of jigs. This structure can greatly improve work efficiency and the accuracy of welding dimensions. In deep and complex air duct cavities, positioning jigs cannot be used, and this structure can effectively solve the problem of fixing the partitions and side panels.
[0004] The utility model comprises an air duct shell, a partition plate arranged in the air duct shell, and a side plate arranged on the side of the air duct shell; the end of the air duct shell is an annular shell, a positioning groove is arranged on the annular shell, and a positioning opening is arranged on the side edge of the annular shell located on the side where the side plate is installed; a positioning claw inserted into the positioning groove is arranged at a position corresponding to the positioning groove on the partition plate, and a positioning claw inserted into the positioning groove is arranged at a position corresponding to the positioning groove on the side plate.
[0005] Preferably, the lower portion of the positioning claw is a rectangle, the long side of the rectangle extends upward and is connected to an inverted triangle at the end, and the side length of the inverted triangle is greater than the width of the rectangle.
[0006] Preferably, the positioning groove is rectangular, and the length of the positioning groove is greater than the side length of the inverted triangle.
[0007] Preferably, the positioning opening is a rectangle, and the length of the positioning opening is between the width of the rectangle at the bottom of the positioning claw and the side length of the inverted triangle.
[0008] Preferably, a plurality of positioning grooves are arranged at intervals, and the plurality of positioning grooves are arranged equidistantly on the annular shell.
[0009] Preferably, a plurality of positioning openings are arranged at intervals, and the plurality of positioning openings are arranged equidistantly on the side of the annular shell.
[0010] In summary, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] 1. When welding the partition and the side plate, accurate positioning can be achieved through its own positioning grooves, positioning ports and positioning claws. The partition and the side plate are firmly fixed and not easy to move. No positioning fixture is required, which can greatly improve the work efficiency and the accuracy of the welding size;
[0012] 2. In the deep and complex air duct cavity, the positioning fixture cannot be used, the partition and the side panel cannot be fixed, and welding cannot be carried out. This structure effectively solves the problem of fixing the partition and the side panel, so that the welding work can be carried out smoothly, reducing the difficulty of work and improving work efficiency.
