Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an evaporator support member. Background Art
[0002] For an indoor hanging unit of an air conditioner, components such as an evaporator, a blower wheel, and a motor are arranged inside. The evaporator usually needs to be fixed by a fixing seat. In order to ensure that the fixed evaporator will not become loose from the fixing seat, connecting members such as screws are used for fixing. However, using screws for fixing requires pre-welding a connecting member on the evaporator for screw connection, which causes the problem of complex surface structure of the evaporator. Moreover, the evaporator also adjusts the position of the connecting member according to different structures of the fixing seat, which undoubtedly affects the universality of the evaporator.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements to it. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] To solve the above problems, the utility model proposes an evaporator support member, which does not require using screws to fix the evaporator.
[0005] The utility model proposes an evaporator support member, which includes a structural plate body. An air inlet is arranged inside the structural plate body. A plurality of evaporator tube fixing holes are distributed on the outside of the structural plate body. At least half of the plurality of evaporator tube fixing holes are provided with elastic limiting members. The elastic limiting member includes a cantilever and a rib. One end of the cantilever is integrally connected to the hole wall of the evaporator tube fixing hole, and the other end of the cantilever is provided with the rib on the inner side wall. The cantilever can elastically deform outwards.
[0006] In one or more embodiments, an inner baffle and an outer baffle are provided near the outer edge of the structural plate body. A tube laying area is formed between the inner baffle and the outer baffle. The plurality of evaporator tube fixing holes are distributed in the tube laying area.
[0007] In one or more embodiments, reinforcing ribs are provided on the circumferential side of the structural plate body located between the inner baffle and the outer baffle.
[0008] In one or more embodiments, a concave mounting position is provided on the structural plate body. The mounting position is in the area between the air inlet and the plurality of evaporator tube fixing holes. A wire passing hole is opened on the mounting position.
[0009] In one or more embodiments, the structural plate body is an integrally injection-molded structure.
[0010] Advantages of the utility model: The evaporator support member is distributed with a plurality of evaporator tube fixing holes. The elastic limiting members on some of the evaporator tube fixing holes are used to fix the pipelines of the evaporator, replacing the traditional screw fixing and assembly, improving the assembly efficiency and being applicable to the installation of most evaporators on the market.

[0014] To deepen the understanding of the present utility model, the following will further elaborate on the present utility model in combination with embodiments and drawings. The embodiments are only used to explain the present utility model and do not constitute a limitation to the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0015] Refer to the attached Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides an evaporator support member, which includes a structural plate body 1. An air inlet 2 is arranged on the inner side of the structural plate body. A plurality of evaporation tube fixing holes 3 are distributed on the outer side of the structural plate body. The evaporation tube fixing holes are used to fix the pipelines at both ends of the evaporator. At least half of the plurality of evaporation tube fixing holes are provided with elastic limiting members. The elastic limiting member includes a cantilever 4 and a rib 5. One end of the cantilever is integrally connected to the hole wall of the evaporation tube fixing hole 3, and the other end of the cantilever is provided with the rib 5 on the inner side wall. The cantilever can elastically deform outwards. When the evaporation tube is inserted into the evaporation tube fixing hole with an elastic limiting member, the cantilever is first extruded and deformed outwards. After the evaporation tube passes through, the cantilever rebounds and catches the turning position of the evaporation tube, thereby fixing the evaporation tube.
[0016] An inner baffle 6 and an outer baffle 7 are provided near the outer edge of the structural plate body 1. A pipe laying area is formed between the inner baffle and the outer baffle. The plurality of evaporation tube fixing holes 3 are distributed in the pipe laying area. The inner baffle and the outer baffle can enclose and protect the evaporation tube, avoiding the evaporation tube from being collided during the assembly process. On the other hand, the structural strength of the evaporation tube fixing hole can be enhanced.
[0017] Reinforcing ribs 8 are provided on the periphery of the structural plate body 1 where the inner baffle and the outer baffle are located. The reinforcing ribs can improve the structural strength of the structural plate body, the inner baffle and the outer baffle, making it not easy to deform.
[0018] A concave installation position 9 is provided on the structural plate body 1. The installation position is in the area between the air inlet 2 and the plurality of evaporation tube fixing holes 3. A wire passing hole 10 is opened on the installation position. The installation position can be used to install electronic sensors, such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, etc.
[0019] The structural plate body 1 is an integrally injection-molded structure. The injection-molded structural plate body has the advantages of light weight, easy transportation and low production cost.
[0020] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiment. Any equivalent modification or change made by those of ordinary skill in the art according to the disclosure of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
