Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to an air conditioner, and in particular to a sinking commercial air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] When installing a commercial air conditioner, it is likely that the fan will need to be sunk into the building's ventilation duct so that the cold air inside the air conditioner can be blown into the room through the duct. Figure 1 In addition to the air conditioner body 91 itself, the existing sinking commercial air conditioner also includes a fan sinking frame 92 located below the air conditioner body 91 for adapting to the actual conditions of different buildings to complete the installation. The air conditioner body 91 is provided with a first fan position 910 for accommodating a fan 93, and the fan sinking frame 92 is also provided with a second fan position 920 for accommodating the fan 93. When the air conditioner leaves the factory, the fan 93 is installed in the first fan position 910 by default. When the fan 93 does not need to be sunk into the ventilation duct, the fan 93 remains in the factory position in the first fan position 910 of the body 91; when the fan 93 needs to be sunk, the fan 93 needs to be disassembled from the first fan position 910 and installed in the fan sinking frame 92, and then the fan sinking frame 92 is sunk into the ventilation duct.
[0003] The problem with the existing sunken commercial air conditioner is that when it is installed downward, the total installation height of the air conditioner is the sum of the height of the air conditioner body 91 and the height of the fan sunken frame 92, which makes the volume too large to meet customer needs, or the volume meets the requirements but the cooling capacity does not meet the requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a modularized sunken commercial air conditioner which can effectively reduce the volume of the air conditioner and meet the volume requirements and the refrigeration capacity requirements.
[0005] The air conditioner provided by the utility model includes an air conditioner body, a fan sinking frame and a fan arranged in the fan position; the air conditioner is arranged to have a unit module and a fan module separated from each other; the air conditioner body only includes the unit module, the fan module is independent of the air conditioner body and integrated in the fan sinking frame, the fan position is only arranged in the fan module, and the fan module is provided with an air duct.
[0006] It can be seen from the above scheme that, first of all, the detachable fan module as a fan sinking frame solves the problem of needing to reserve fan sinking space before installing the commercial air conditioner. More importantly, the utility model will directly set the air conditioner body to only have the unit module. In this way, the air conditioner body does not have any position or structure related to the fan. This part of the space, structure and volume are directly integrated into the fan sinking frame as a fan module. In this way, the volume of the air conditioner body is greatly reduced, and a more sufficient cooling capacity can be obtained under a small volume or the same volume. In addition, the fan module is not limited by the reserved space of the building during installation and can be installed at any position. The fan module comes with part of the air duct, which can avoid the change of the air duct caused by improper reserved position, and is not limited by the reserved space during installation. It can be installed at any position by connecting to the air duct. Finally, the separation of the fan module and the unit module and the reduction of the volume of the air conditioner body facilitate transportation and reduce transportation costs.
[0007] A further solution is that the fan module includes an outer body and a fan fixing frame arranged in the outer body, and the fan is connected to the fan fixing frame; the fan fixing frame can be raised and lowered and / or translated, and the fan fixing frame can be raised and lowered or translated to allow the fan to reach outside the outer body.
[0008] As can be seen from the above, under this setting, the fan can be pushed out, making it convenient for later maintenance and replacement.
[0009] A further solution is that the fan fixing frame can be raised and lowered and translated, the fan module includes a lifting mechanism and a translation mechanism, and the outer body includes a detachable base and a movable part; the lifting mechanism is connected to the base, the movable part is driven to rise and fall by the lifting mechanism, the translation mechanism is connected to the movable part, the fan fixing frame is driven to translate by the translation mechanism, and the fan is located in the movable part.
[0010] As can be seen from the above, under this arrangement, the fan can be lifted and lowered to reach the outside of the outer body, or can be translated to reach the outside of the outer body, or can be lifted and translated to allow the fan to reach a position that is more convenient for inspection and maintenance.
[0011] A further solution is that the lifting mechanism includes a vertically arranged cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the cylinder supports the movable part; the translation mechanism includes a slide rail assembly, the slide rail assembly includes a slide rail and a sliding member that slide together, the slide rail is connected to the movable part, and the sliding member is connected to the fan fixing frame; the translation mechanism also includes a motor, a gear and a rack, the motor drives the gear to rotate, the rack is connected to the sliding member, and the gear is meshed with the rack.
[0012] As can be seen from the above, the fan has a certain weight. The use of a cylinder as the lifting mechanism can achieve electric control lifting while ensuring that sufficient lifting force is provided to ensure the effectiveness of the fan lifting action; and the setting of the slide rail assembly can ensure the smooth translation of the fan fixing frame.
[0013] Furthermore, this arrangement realizes the automation of the fan translation movement and the controllable translation amount, and the fan can be fixed in the position after translation, which makes it easier for the staff to adjust the fan to a more suitable position according to their own situation, and the fan fixing frame is stable in the current position during the maintenance process, which further facilitates the staff's operation and reduces the difficulty of fan maintenance and replacement.
[0014] Another further solution is that the fan fixing frame is hoisted between two sets of slide rail assemblies arranged opposite to each other, the upper part of the fan fixing frame is connected to the sliding member, and the lower part of the fan fixing frame and the fan are both located below the slide rail assembly.
[0015] As can be seen from the above, since the lifting mechanism uses a cylinder, the movable part and the slide rail assembly are located at a higher position. In this case, compared with the method of supporting from below, the fan fixing frame is more suitable and has better stability by hoisting.
[0016] In a further solution, the fan module includes a locking mechanism, which includes a vertical track, a support beam and a buckle, the vertical track is vertically arranged at the base, the support beam is vertically movably connected to the vertical track, and the support beam is connected to the movable part, and the buckle is arranged on the vertical track; when the fan fixing frame rises to a high position, the buckle can buckle the support beam.
[0017] As can be seen from the above, the setting of the support beam and the buckle can avoid the risk of the lifting mechanism failing and falling, thereby improving safety.
[0018] A further solution is that at least four sets of lifting mechanisms are arranged in a rectangular array; at least two sets of locking mechanisms are provided; and the locking mechanism is provided in front of the lifting mechanism along the direction in which the fan is sent out of the outer body by the translation mechanism.
[0019] As can be seen from the above, under this setting, the locking mechanism is located between the lifting mechanism and the extended fan. When the lifting mechanism fails, the locking mechanism can also serve as a support point to support the structure and prevent it from falling. Compared with other positions, setting the locking mechanism between the lifting mechanism and the extended fan is more effective in terms of insurance.
[0020] Another further solution is that the outer body is configured as an air duct structure with air inlet at the upper end and air outlet at the horizontal end.
[0021] As can be seen from the above, by using a movable part to set up the air duct structure, the adaptability of docking with air ducts or ventilation structures in different situations in the building can be improved.
[0022] A further solution is that the base includes a main frame and a blocking wall installed on the main frame to block the air duct; and the movable part includes an upper frame of the main frame.
[0023] As can be seen from the above, this setting makes the inside of the air duct have better integrity, which is conducive to reducing wind resistance.
[0024] A further solution is to distribute multiple temperature sensors and / or humidity sensors in the air duct structure.
[0025] As can be seen from the above, this setting can monitor the air volume, temperature and humidity of the air conditioner in real time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] See also Figure 2 And compare Figure 1 Compared with the existing sinking commercial air conditioner, the air conditioner of this embodiment also includes an air conditioner body 81, a fan sinking frame 82 and a fan 90; the difference is that the air conditioner of this embodiment completely removes the fan-related structure from the air conditioner body 81 and completely integrates it into the fan sinking frame 82. In this way, the air conditioner is set as a unit module 1 and a fan module 2 that are separated from each other.
[0035] In this way, the air conditioner body 81 only includes the unit module 1, and the unit module 1 mainly includes the unit structure 10 such as two devices and a compressor. More specifically, Figure 1In the air conditioner body 91, the lower part of the unit module 1 does not have the relevant space and structure for accommodating the fan, and the structure of this part is removed from the air conditioner body 81. However, the fan module 2 is independent of the air conditioner body 81, and the fan module 2 serves as a fan sinking frame 82 and is provided with a duct structure. In the air conditioner, the fan position 200 is only provided in the fan module 2.
[0036] The main effect of this arrangement is that the height of the air conditioner body 81 is greatly reduced. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The total height of the air conditioner in this embodiment is reduced by the height of the first fan position 910. In this way, the volume of the air conditioner body is greatly reduced, and a more sufficient cooling capacity can be obtained under a small volume or the same volume. In addition, the split setting between the fan module 2 and the unit module 1 and the reduction in the volume of the air conditioner body 81 facilitate transportation and reduce transportation costs.
[0037] See also Figures 4 to 7 In addition, the utility model also optimizes the fan module 2, that is, the fan sinking frame 82.
[0038] The fan module 2 includes an outer body 20 , a lifting mechanism 31 , a translation mechanism 32 , a locking mechanism 4 , a fan fixing frame 5 , and a temperature and humidity sensor 6 , and of course, also includes a fan 90 .
[0039] The outer body 20 is configured as an air duct structure with air entering from the upper end and air exiting horizontally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the upper end of the outer body 20 is provided with an air inlet to communicate with the unit module 1, and the front of the outer body 20 is provided with an air outlet to connect with the building air duct to supply air. The outer body 20 includes a base 21 and a movable part 22. The base 21 includes a main frame 211 and a baffle 212 installed on the main frame 211 to block the air duct structure. Figure 5 , the movable part 22 is the upper frame part of the main frame 211. In addition, the length and width of the air duct formed by the outer body 20 are greater than the length and width of the unit module 1, and the inside of the air duct cavity is smooth, which can effectively reduce the return air in the cavity and ensure the air conditioning performance.
[0040] Also, see Figure 4 In this embodiment, a plurality of temperature and humidity sensors 6 are distributed inside the cavity of the outer body 20 to monitor the air volume and temperature and humidity of the air conditioner in real time.
[0041] Continue to see Figures 4 to 7 The lifting mechanism 31 includes four groups of cylinders, the translation mechanism 32 includes a driving assembly and a slide rail assembly, the driving assembly includes a motor 321, a gear 322 and a rack 323, the slide rail assembly includes a sliding rail 325 and a sliding member 324, and the locking mechanism 4 includes two groups of vertical rails 41, a support beam 42 and a buckle 43. The fan fixing frame 5 is used to fix and install the fan 90.
[0042] The four lifting mechanisms 31 are arranged in a horizontal rectangular array. In the first horizontal direction shown in the x-axis direction, the four lifting mechanisms 31 are all at a certain distance from the edge of the base of the base 21, and the upper part of the movable part 22 is connected to the top of the telescopic rod of the cylinder of the four lifting mechanisms 31. In this way, the lifting mechanism 31 can drive the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 to move between the low position and the high position. Figure 4 The fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 are shown in a low position, at which time the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 are inside the base 21; Figure 5 and Figure 6 The fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 are shown in a high position, and at this time the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 are outside the base 21 .
[0043] The slide rail assembly and the motor 321 are both connected to the upper part of the movable part 22. The slide rail assembly extends along the x-axis direction, and two sets of slide rail assemblies opposite to each other along the y-axis direction are provided corresponding to each fan 90. The gear 322 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 321, the rack 323 is provided along the x-axis direction and fixedly connected to the sliding member 324, and the gear 322 is meshed with the rack 323.
[0044] See also Figure 4 and Figure 7 The fan fixing frame 5 is hoisted between the two slide members 324 of the two sets of slide rail assemblies arranged opposite to each other. The upper part of the fan fixing frame 5 is supported on the horizontal plate part of the "L"-shaped slide member 324 and fixedly connected to each other. The lower part of the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 installed on the fan fixing frame 5 are sunk from the position between the two sets of slide rail assemblies to the bottom of the slide rail assemblies. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the motor 321 is working, the translation mechanism 32 can drive the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 to translate outside the base 21 .
[0045] See also Figure 8 Of course, the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 can also be moved only in the horizontal direction to the outside of the base 21 by only the translation mechanism 32. What is not shown is that the fan fixing frame 5 and the fan 90 can also be moved only upward to the outside of the base 21 by only the lifting mechanism 31.
[0046] Furthermore, for safety reasons, the present embodiment further provides a locking mechanism 4, two sets of locking mechanisms 4 are arranged on opposite sides of the base 21 along the y-axis direction, and, see Figure 5In the x-axis direction, the locking mechanism 4 is between the lifting mechanism 31 and the fan 90 outside the base 21, that is, in the direction of sending the fan 90 out of the base 21 along the translation mechanism 32, the locking mechanism 4 is arranged in front of the lifting mechanism 31. The vertical track 41 is fixedly arranged on the base 21 along the fixed vertical direction, and the support beam 42 is movably connected to the vertical track 41 along the vertical direction, and the upper end of the support beam 42 is connected to the movable part 22, and the buckle 43 is arranged on the vertical track 41. In this way, the height of the buckle 43 is fixed and the support beam 42 can be raised and lowered with the fan fixing frame 5. When the fan fixing frame 5 rises to a high position, the buckle 43 can buckle the support beam 42. This setting can avoid the risk of the lifting mechanism failing and falling, and improve safety. Furthermore, the position of the locking mechanism 4 is between the lifting mechanism 31 and the protruding fan 90. When the lifting mechanism 31 fails, the locking mechanism 4 can also become a supporting point support structure to prevent it from falling. Compared with other positions, the safety function of arranging the locking mechanism 4 between the lifting mechanism 31 and the outwardly extending fan 90 is more effective.
[0047] Finally, it should be emphasized that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various changes and modifications. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
