The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.
[0039] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the present application embodiment provides a bracket 10:
[0041] The bracket 10 includes a main body 100 and at least two condenser fixing plates 200;
[0042] A first connecting portion 110 is disposed at one end of the main body 100;
[0043] The condenser fixing plate 200 is provided with a mounting groove and a second connecting portion 240, the mounting groove is used to install the condenser, and the second connecting portion 240 is detachably connected to the first connecting portion 110;
[0044] The size and shape of the mounting grooves on the condenser fixing plates 200 are different.
[0045] The shapes and sizes of the mounting grooves in the condenser fixing plate 200 in the present application are different, so different condenser fixing plates 200 can be used to install condensers 300 of different models and sizes, but the first connecting parts 110 on different condenser fixing plates 200 are all of the same structure, so different condenser fixing plates 200 can be connected to the bracket 10. Therefore, the same bracket 10 can be provided with multiple first connecting parts 110 for installing multiple condensers 300, and when replacing the condenser 300, only the condenser fixing plate 200 needs to be replaced without replacing the bracket 10. In summary, the bracket 10 of the present application has strong versatility and can reduce the production cost of the air conditioner outdoor unit 20 and the replacement cost of the condenser 300.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 There are multiple condensers 300 in the stack. At this time, the condenser 300 located in the middle part is equivalent to being located between the two condenser fixing plates 200 and clamped by the two condenser fixing plates 200. At this time, the stacked air conditioner outdoor unit 20 has a stable structure. It can be understood that the connection between the condenser 300 and the condenser fixing plate 200 includes a clamping connection, a threaded connection, etc.
[0047] For further information, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The condenser fixing plate 200 includes a main board 210 and a first fixing plate 220 and a second fixing plate 230 located at opposite sides of the main board 210. The main board 210, the first fixing plate 220 and the second fixing plate 230 together define a mounting groove.
[0048] At this time, one end of the condenser fixing plate 200 is located in the mounting groove, which can be clamped and positioned by the mounting groove, or fixedly connected to the condenser fixing plate 200 by a structure such as a thread or a buckle. Figure 5 At this time, the condenser 300 located between the two condenser fixing plates 200 can have one end located in the installation groove of a condenser fixing plate 200, and the other end located on the main board 210 of another condenser fixing plate 200, thereby achieving the structural strength of the air conditioner outdoor unit 20. It can be understood that there can also be multiple interconnected condensers 300 between adjacent condenser fixing plates 200. At this time, as long as one of the condensers 300 is connected to the condenser fixing plate 200, the remaining condensers 300 can achieve the effect of positioning and fixing by relying on their own weight, thereby reducing the number of condenser fixing plates 200 and reducing the production cost of the air conditioner outdoor unit 20. The connection between the condensers 300 can be achieved by threaded connection and other methods.
[0049] For further information, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The second connecting portion 240 is located on the second fixing plate 230 and faces a side away from the first fixing plate 220, and is provided with a second mounting hole 111;
[0050] The first connection portion 110 is provided with a first mounting hole 241 corresponding in position and size to the second mounting hole 111 .
[0051] At this time, the second connecting part 240 and the first connecting part 110 can be fixedly connected to the condenser fixing plate 200 and the bracket 10 by passing screws through the second mounting hole 111 and the first mounting hole 241. This connection method is convenient for disassembly and installation and can effectively improve the installation efficiency of the condenser fixing plate 200.
[0052] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2 The condenser fixing plate 200 further includes a third fixing plate 250 connected to the second connecting portion 240. The third fixing plate 250 is arranged opposite to the second fixing plate 230 and defines a limiting groove together with the second fixing plate 230 and the second connecting portion 240.
[0053] The first connection portion 110 is located in the limiting groove and abuts against the second fixing plate 230 , the second connection portion 240 , and the third fixing plate 250 .
[0054] In the actual installation process, when the condenser fixing plate 200 and the bracket 10 are connected, it takes time to align the second mounting hole 111 and the first mounting hole 241. At the same time, after the first connecting portion 110 and the second connecting portion 240 are installed, there may be a shaking between the condenser fixing plate 200 and the main board 210. Therefore, the present application uses the limiting groove formed by the third fixing plate 250, the second fixing plate 230 and the second connecting portion 240 to limit the position of the first connecting portion 110, thereby preventing it from shaking along the Figure 1 Meanwhile, the limiting groove can facilitate the alignment of the first mounting hole 241 and the second mounting hole 111.
[0055] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connection between the second fixing plate 230 and the second connecting portion 240 is arched toward the limiting groove to form a positioning protrusion 242;
[0056] A plurality of positioning holes 112 are provided on one side of the first connecting portion 110 facing the second fixing plate 230;
[0057] The positioning protrusion 242 is located in the positioning hole 112 .
[0058] Since the second mounting hole 111 and the first mounting hole 241 will not contact each other during installation, even if a limiting groove is provided, the condenser fixing plate 200 and the main body 100 still need to be manually aligned on the Y axis. In order to further improve the alignment efficiency of the second mounting hole 111 and the first mounting hole 241, the present application provides a positioning protrusion 242 located in the limiting groove, so that after the first connecting portion 110 is inserted into the limiting groove, the positioning protrusion 242 and the positioning hole 112 need to be aligned, and the positioning protrusion 242 and the positioning hole 112 can contact each other, and the two can effectively achieve positioning. When the two are connected, the second mounting hole 111 is aligned with the first mounting hole 241. At the same time, when the positioning protrusion 242 is located in the positioning hole 112, the positioning hole 112 can limit the movement of the positioning protrusion 242 along the Y axis, thereby preventing the condenser fixing plate 200 from shaking.
[0059] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The condenser fixing plate 200 also includes a side plate, which is connected to the main board 210 and is located at one end of the mounting groove. The side plate is provided with a condenser tube avoidance hole. When the condenser 300 is installed on the condenser fixing plate 200, since the side of the condenser 300 is usually provided with a condenser tube, and in order to improve the condensation efficiency of the condenser 300 as much as possible, there are usually many condenser tubes, so the condenser tube and the side plate may collide or the condenser tube may be pressed against the side plate. The embodiment of the present application provides a condenser tube avoidance hole, so that the side plate can still make enough space for the condenser tube to pass through when it can fit and fix the side of the condenser 300, thereby improving the condensation efficiency of the condenser 300.
[0060] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the first connection portion 110 includes a first sub-connection portion and a second sub-connection portion 113;
[0061] The first sub-connection portion is connected to the second connection portion 240, and the second sub-connection portion 113 is connected to two opposite sides of the first sub-connection portion and defines a positioning groove with the first sub-connection portion;
[0062] The second connection portion 240 is located in the positioning groove and abuts against the first sub-connection portion and the second sub-connection portion 113 .
[0063] In order to further improve the assembly efficiency of the condenser fixing plate 200 and the main body 100, the present application bends the first sub-connection portion to form the second sub-connection portion 113, and defines a positioning groove through the second sub-connection portion 113 and the first sub-connection portion, thereby realizing the positioning of the second connection portion 240. This implementation can improve the assembly efficiency of the condenser fixing plate 200 and the main body 100 without adding additional components, thereby reducing the production cost of the air conditioner outdoor unit 20.
[0064] For further information, please refer to Figure 5 and 6 The bracket 10 further includes two support rods 120, the main body 100 has a plurality of them, and the two support rods 120 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the plurality of main bodies 100;
[0065] The first connection portion 110 is disposed on the main body 100 , and a plurality of main bodies 100 are distributed along the length direction of the support rod 120 .
[0066] Because multiple main bodies 100 are arranged between the support rods 120, one bracket 10 can stack multiple condenser fixing plates 200. Therefore, when multiple condensers 300 are stacked and installed on the condenser fixing plates 200, each condenser 300 can be firmly fixed, thereby achieving the effect of one bracket 10 stably fixing multiple condensers 300.
[0067] For further information, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The main body 100 and / or the condenser fixing plate 200 are partially arched to form a reinforcing protrusion. The reinforcing protrusion can strengthen the structural strength of the main body 100 and / or the condenser fixing plate 200, thereby improving the structural strength of the bracket 10.
[0068] For further information, please refer to Figure 6 The bracket 10 further includes a reinforcement member 130 , one end of the reinforcement member 130 is connected to the main body 100 , and the other end is connected to the support rod 120 , and an angle is formed between the reinforcement member 130 and the main body 100 .
[0069] In this embodiment, a triangular stable mechanical structure is formed between the reinforcement 130 and the main body 100 and the support rod 120. This structure can effectively improve the structural strength of the entire bracket 10, prevent the main body 100 from being bent and deformed, and thereby enable the bracket 10 to meet the assembly form of multiple stacked condensers 300.
[0070] Accordingly, please refer to Figure 5 The present application also provides an air-conditioning outdoor unit 20, which includes the bracket 10 and the condenser 300 in the above embodiment, the condenser 300 is connected to the condenser fixing plate 200, and at least part of the condenser 300 is located in the limiting groove.
[0071] Since the air conditioner outdoor unit 20 in the present application adopts the bracket 10 and condenser 300 in the above embodiment, different condenser fixing plates 200 can be used to install different condensers 300, but the first connecting parts 110 on different condenser fixing plates 200 are all of the same structure, so different condenser fixing plates 200 can be connected to the bracket 10. Therefore, the same bracket 10 can be provided with multiple first connecting parts 110 for installing multiple condensers 300, and when replacing the condenser 300, only the condenser fixing plate 200 needs to be replaced without replacing the bracket 10. In summary, the production cost of the air conditioner outdoor unit 20 of the present application and the replacement cost of the condenser 300.
[0072] The bracket 10 and the air-conditioning outdoor unit 20 provided in the embodiment of the present application are introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application.
