Claims

1. A pipe clamp, characterized in that: include: A main body, the main body having a pipe connection portion and a first clamping portion arranged on the pipe connection portion, the pipe connection portion having a first bent edge formed by bending and at least two clamping slots with clamping openings, the first bent edge being located at one end of the pipe connection portion along a first direction, all the clamping slots being arranged at intervals along the first direction, and the clamping openings of the clamping slots being located at the same side of the pipe connection portion; the first clamping portion being located between two adjacent clamping slots; A cover body, wherein the cover body has a shielding portion and a second clamping portion arranged on the shielding portion, the shielding portion has a first end and a second end opposite to each other, the first end is rotatably connected to an end of the pipe connection portion away from the first bending edge along the first direction, and the second end has a second bending edge formed by bending; the cover body is rotated to switch between a closed position in which the shielding portion blocks the clamping opening of each of the clamping slots and an open position avoiding the clamping opening of each of the clamping slots; when the cover body is in the closed position, the second clamping portion is clamped and matched with the first clamping portion, and the second bending edge is clamped and matched with the first bending edge.

2. The pipe clamp according to claim 1, characterized in that: The first bending edge is bent toward the side of the pipe connection portion where the bayonet is provided, and the second bending edge is bent toward the side of the shielding portion away from the bayonet slot; or, The first bending edge is bent toward a side of the pipe connection portion away from the bayonet, and the second bending edge is bent toward a side of the shielding portion close to the bayonet slot.

3. The pipe clamp according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that: The pipe connection portion further has a connecting section, which is located between the first bending edge and the clamping groove closest to the first bending edge and is connected to the first bending edge.

4. The pipe clamp according to claim 3, characterized in that: The pipe connection part also has a guide section, which is located on the side of the clamping mouth of the clamping slot closest to the first bending edge away from the first clamping part, and is bent toward the side of the pipe connection part away from the clamping mouth, and the side of the connecting section away from the first bending edge is connected to the guide section.

5. The pipe clamp according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that: The pipe connection portion is provided with two slots, wherein the cross-sectional area of ​​one of the slots is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the other slot, and the first bending edge is arranged close to the slot with a relatively smaller cross-sectional area among the two slots.

6. The pipe clamp according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that: One of the first clamping part and the second clamping part is an elastic clamp, and the other is a bayonet. The elastic clamp includes an elastic foot and an abutment block arranged at one end of the elastic foot. The elastic clamp is achieved by allowing the elastic foot to pass through the bayonet, and a part of the abutment block faces the peripheral side of the bayonet to achieve a clamping fit with the bayonet.

7. The pipe clamp according to claim 6, characterized in that: The number of the elastic buckles is two, and the two elastic buckles are arranged at an interval so that an elastic deformation space is formed at the interval.

8. The pipe clamp according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that: The side of the pipe connection portion facing away from the cover body has a reinforcing rib; and / or, A partial area of ​​the pipe connection portion between two adjacent clamping grooves is recessed to form a groove.

9. An air conditioner outdoor unit, characterized in that: The invention comprises a first tube body, a second tube body and the tube clamp according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein the first tube body is engaged with one of the slots, and the second tube body is engaged with the other of the slots.

10. The air conditioner outdoor unit according to claim 9, characterized in that: The first tube body is a dynamic tube, and the second tube body is a static tube.

11. An air conditioner, characterized in that: The air conditioner comprises the air conditioner outdoor unit according to claim 9 or 10.
