[0035] Such as Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a shock pad 30, which is used to be arranged between the mounting bracket 20 and the external structure 10. The shock pad 30 includes a first elastic layer 100 and a second elastic layer 200. A plurality of support blocks 300 are arranged between the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200. One end of the support block 300 is connected to the first elastic layer 100, and the other end of the support block 300 is connected to the second elastic layer 200. The plurality of support blocks 300 are arranged at intervals and make the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200 arranged at intervals.

[0036] It should be noted that the support block 300 is made of a hard material, such as hard metals: pure metals such as iron and steel, and composite metals, so that the supporting force of the support block 300 can make the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200 arranged at intervals.

[0037] The first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200 can be made of the same material, such as rubber, sponge, etc.

[0038] It can be understood that the present utility model arranges a plurality of support blocks 300 at intervals, and the plurality of support blocks 300 make the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200 arranged at intervals, so as to form a hollow structure between the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200, so as to better absorb low-frequency vibrations and improve the shock-absorbing ability of the outdoor unit for low-frequency vibrations.

[0039] In some embodiments, since the materials of the support block 300, the first elastic layer 100, and the second elastic layer 200 are different, the shock pad 30 has at least two frequency characteristics, thereby increasing the range of vibration absorption frequencies of the shock pad 30.

[0040] In some embodiments, different-sized support blocks 300 can be replaced to form different-sized hollow gaps, and then vibrations of different low frequencies can be absorbed.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first elastic layer 100 has a plurality of first mounting grooves 101, and the plurality of first mounting grooves 101 are arranged at intervals. The second elastic layer 200 has a plurality of second mounting grooves 201, and each second mounting groove 201 is arranged opposite to a first mounting groove 101. One end of each support block 300 is arranged in a first mounting groove 101 and connected to the first elastic layer 100, and the other end of each support block 300 is arranged in the corresponding second mounting groove 201 and connected to the second elastic layer 200.

[0042] It can be understood that a first mounting groove 101 is provided on the first elastic layer 100, a second mounting groove 201 is provided on the second elastic layer 200, and both ends of the support block 300 are respectively arranged in the first mounting groove 101 and the second mounting groove 201 which are arranged in alignment. Through the first mounting groove 101 and the second mounting groove 201, the support blocks 300 are spaced apart from each other, and at the same time, the connection stability between the first elastic layer 100, the second elastic layer 200 and the support block 300 is improved through the first mounting groove 101 and the second mounting groove 201. For example, through the insertion connection between the first mounting groove 101 and the support block 300, the side wall of the first mounting groove 101 can limit the offset of the support block in the horizontal direction, avoiding the side slip and dislocation of the support block 300 caused by vibration.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first mounting groove 101, the second mounting groove 201 and the support block 300 are in interference connection.

[0044] Generally, in some embodiments, in order to connect the support block 300 with the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200, the support block 300 can generally be connected to the first elastic layer 100 and the support block 300 can be connected to the second elastic layer 200 by bonding.

[0045] In some embodiments, a first clamping structure 102 is provided in the first mounting groove 101, and the first clamping structure 102 is used to clamp with the support block 300 and connect the support block 300 with the first mounting groove 101.

[0046] A second clamping structure 202 is provided in the second mounting groove 201, and the second clamping structure 202 is used to clamp with the support block 300 and connect the support block 300 with the second mounting groove 201.

[0047] It can be understood that through the first clamping structure 102, while realizing the insertion connection between the support block 300 and the first mounting groove 101, the connection between the support block 300 and the first elastic layer 100 is realized. Through the second clamping structure 202, while realizing the insertion connection between the support block 300 and the second mounting groove 201, the connection between the support block 300 and the second elastic layer 200 is realized, thereby realizing the connection and spaced arrangement of the first elastic layer 100 and the second elastic layer 200. At the same time, the support block 300 can be quickly disassembled through the clamping structure, which is convenient for replacing the support block 300 with different heights according to different low frequencies, so as to form different sizes of hollow gaps to absorb different low-frequency vibrations.

[0048] It should be noted that the first clamping structure 102 can be provided only in the first mounting groove 101, or the second clamping structure 202 can be provided only in the second mounting groove 201, or the first clamping structure 102 can be provided in the first mounting groove 101 and the second clamping structure 202 can be provided in the second mounting groove 201 at the same time.

[0049] It can be understood that by setting the first clamping structure 102, the support block 300 is connected to the first installation groove 101. For example, the first clamping structure 102 and the first installation groove 101 are connected by an adhesive method, and then the first clamping structure 102 and the support block 300 are connected by clamping, so as to realize the connection between the support block 300 and the first installation groove 101. The connection method between the second clamping structure 202, the second installation groove 201 and the support block 300 can be the same.

[0050] In some embodiments, the first clamping structure 102 and the first installation groove 101 can be integrally formed, and the second clamping structure 202 and the second installation groove can also be integrally formed.

[0051] In some embodiments, both the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 202 are fixing frames. One side of the fixing frame is connected to the bottom of the first installation groove 101 or the second installation groove 201, and the other side of the fixing frame is clamped to the end of the support block 300.

[0052] In some embodiments, the fixing frame includes at least two base rods 401. The at least two base rods 401 are cross-connected. Extension parts 402 are respectively arranged at both ends of each base rod 401. The two extension parts 402 of the same base rod 401 cooperate to clamp one end of the support block 300.

[0053] It should be noted that generally, the length of the base rod 401 is the same as the width or length of the support block 300. By limiting the extension part 402 and the base rod 401 at a predetermined angle, the clamping of the support block 300 by the fixing frame can be realized. For example, by making the distance between the extension parts 402 equal to the width or length of the support block 300, the fixing frame can be clamped to the end of the support block 300. Further, by restricting the angle between the extension part 402 and the base rod 401, the fixing frame can have different clamping forces on the support block 300. For example, when the support block 300 is a cube, if the length of the base rod 401 is the same as the width of the cube and the included angle between the extension part 402 and the base rod 401 is 90°, the fixing frame can normally clamp the support block 300; on this basis, if the included angle between the extension part 402 and the base rod 401 is 60°, the distance between the extension parts 402 will be smaller than the cube, so that there is also a horizontal pre-tightening force between the two extension parts 402 of the same base rod 401 on the support block 300, so that the clamping force (clamping strength) is tighter than that set at a 90° angle.

[0054] In some embodiments, the fixing frame and the support block 300 can be integrally formed, or the fixing frame can be connected to the support block by an adhesive method.

[0055] In some embodiments, the fixing bracket is made of an elastic material. That is, the base rod 401 is made of an elastic material, further increasing the buffer structure of the shock pad 30, thereby improving the absorption effect of the shock pad 30 on high-frequency vibrations.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first clamping structure 102 includes a plurality of first protrusions. The plurality of first protrusions are spaced around the side wall of the first mounting groove 101, and the plurality of first protrusions cooperate to clamp one end of the support block 300.

[0057] The second clamping structure 202 includes a plurality of second protrusions. The plurality of second protrusions are spaced around the side wall of the second mounting groove 201, and the plurality of second protrusions cooperate to clamp one end of the support block 300.

[0058] It should be noted that the first protrusion is the part protruding from the side wall of the first mounting groove 101, and the second protrusion is the part protruding from the side wall of the second mounting groove 201.

[0059] In some embodiments, the projection of the second mounting groove 201 on the first mounting groove 101 coincides with the first mounting groove 101, and the projection of the support block 300 on the first mounting groove 101 has the same shape as the projection of the second mounting groove 201 on the first mounting groove 101.

[0060] That is, the first mounting groove 101 and the second mounting groove 201 have the same shape and size, and the first mounting groove 101, the second mounting groove 201, and the support block 300 have the same shape. For example, if the support block 300 is a cylinder, the first mounting groove 101 and the second mounting groove 201 are cylindrical grooves.

[0061] In some embodiments, the depth of the first mounting groove 101 is 0.2 - 0.5 times the thickness of the first elastic layer 100.

[0062] It can be understood that if the depth of the first mounting groove 101 is too deep, the bottom wall at the first mounting groove 101 is thinner, and the position of the first elastic layer 100 corresponding to the support block 300 cannot absorb vibrations well.

[0063] Similarly, the depth of the second mounting groove 201 is 0.2 - 0.5 times the thickness of the second elastic layer 200.

[0064] In some embodiments, the depth of the first mounting groove 101 is 0.2 times the thickness of the first elastic layer 100.

[0065] In some embodiments, the depth of the first mounting groove 101 is 0.3 times the thickness of the first elastic layer 100.

[0066] In some embodiments, the depth of the first mounting groove 101 is 0.5 times the thickness of the first elastic layer 100.

[0067] In some embodiments, the depth of the second mounting groove 201 is 0.2 times the thickness of the second elastic layer 200.

[0068] In some embodiments, the depth of the second mounting groove 201 is 0.3 times the thickness of the second elastic layer 200.

[0069] In some embodiments, the depth of the second mounting groove 201 is 0.5 times the thickness of the second elastic layer 200.

[0070] In some embodiments, the present utility model further provides a mounting bracket 20, which includes a bracket body and the shock pad 30 in the above embodiments. The bracket body has a mounting wall for connecting to an external structure 10; the shock pad 30 is attached to the mounting wall. Since the mounting bracket 20 includes the shock pad 30 of the above embodiments or combined embodiments, it has at least some or all of the beneficial effects of the above shock pad 30, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0071] The above are only optional embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the specification and drawings of the present utility model under the application concept of the present utility model, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
