DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, a more comprehensive description of the present invention is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. These embodiments are provided solely to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of the present invention.
[0021] See attached Figure 1-8 As shown, in this embodiment, a motor bracket connection structure for an air conditioner outdoor unit includes an outdoor unit and a motor bracket 1 disposed within the interior of the outdoor unit. The motor bracket 1 primarily serves as a bracket component for securing and supporting the motor. Specifically, the outdoor unit of this embodiment includes a chassis 4, a front panel 2, and a condenser 3. The motor bracket 1, front panel 2, and condenser 3 are correspondingly fixedly mounted on the top surface of the chassis 4. The assembly method between the front panel 2 and condenser 3 and the chassis 4 is conventional, and can be assembled by screws, snap-fitting, or other means. No specific limitations are imposed herein, and those skilled in the art may select the method as needed.
[0022] In this embodiment, the motor bracket 1 includes a support portion 11, a lower horizontal plate 12 integrally bent and formed at the lower part of the support portion 11, and an upper horizontal plate 13 integrally bent and formed at the upper part of the support portion 11, wherein the support portion 11 is in a vertical state extending vertically, and the lower horizontal plate 12 and the upper horizontal plate 13 are both arranged perpendicular to the support portion 11 and in a horizontal state.
[0023] In this embodiment, the lower cross plate 12 is formed with a lower buckle hole 121 that is pre-fixed and snap-fitted with the lower clamping block 41 preset in the chassis 4, wherein the lower clamping block 41 is integrally formed on the top surface of the chassis 4 by stamping. Preferably, the chassis 4 of this embodiment is provided with two lower clamping blocks 41 arranged side by side, and correspondingly, the lower cross plate 12 is provided with two lower buckle holes 121 arranged side by side and respectively for the two lower clamping blocks 41 to snap-fit one by one. Thus, the lower clamping blocks 41 are plugged into the lower buckle holes 121 to form a snap-fit, thereby achieving a pre-fixed state between the lower cross plate 12 and the chassis 4, and then the lower cross plate 12 and the chassis 4 are fastened together by screws. In this way, the difficulty of assembling the motor bracket 1 (actually the lower cross plate 12) and the base can be effectively reduced, making it more efficient and convenient.
[0024] In this embodiment, the upper horizontal plate 13 is formed with an upper buckle hole 132 that is pre-fastened and snap-fitted with the upper clamping block 21 preset on the front panel 2. The front end of the upper horizontal plate 13 is integrally bent downward to form a front flange 131 that abuts against the inner side wall of the top of the front panel 2, and the upper buckle hole 132 is provided at the front flange 131. Thus, the front flange 131 abuts against the inner side wall of the top of the front panel 2 to form a preliminary abutting position, and the upper clamping block 21 is correspondingly formed at the top position of the front panel 2, so that the upper clamping block 21 is inserted into the upper buckle hole 132 provided at the front flange 131 to form a snap-fitting fit, thereby achieving a pre-fixed state between the upper horizontal plate 13 and the front panel 2, and then the connection is tightened by screws. In this way, the assembly difficulty of the motor bracket 1 (actually the upper horizontal plate 13) and the front panel 2 can be effectively reduced, and the installation efficiency can be improved.
[0025] Based on this, the motor bracket 1 is connected to the base and the front panel 2 through the upper horizontal plate 13 and the lower horizontal plate 12 respectively, so as to fix the electrode bracket in the upper and lower positions, making the structure more stable and reliable.
[0026] In this embodiment, a connecting plate 6 is also included, which is placed on the upper part of the support portion 11. The connecting plate 6 is formed with a connecting block 61 that is engaged with the connecting slot 133 preset at the rear of the upper horizontal plate 13. The connecting block 61 and the connecting slot 133 are engaged with each other to achieve a quick assembly between the motor bracket 1 and the connecting plate 6, effectively reducing the difficulty of assembly. Secondly, the connecting plate 6 is integrally bent to form a groove with a lower opening and is used to be engaged with the top of the condenser 3. The engaging method between the groove and the condenser 3 is used to achieve a quick assembly between the connecting plate 6 and the condenser 3. Based on this, the connecting plate 6 is used to achieve a fixing effect between the motor bracket 1 and the condenser 3, further improving stability and effectively avoiding the possibility of shaking of the motor bracket 1.
[0027] In this embodiment, the support portion 11 is provided with a motor mounting hole 111 in which the power supply unit 5 is embedded, wherein the support portion 11 is integrally formed with a support platform 112 on both sides of the motor mounting hole 111, and the support platform 112 is fastened to the motor 5 by preset screws.
[0028] In this embodiment, the back side of the support portion 11 is integrally formed with a wire groove 113 in which the motor wire of the power supply machine 5 is embedded and laid, wherein the support portion 11 is integrally formed with a plurality of foldable wire buckles on the extension path of the wire groove 113, so that after the motor wire is embedded and laid in the wire groove 113, the wire buckles can be folded to fix the motor wire in the wire groove 113 to prevent displacement and escape, and to prevent accidents caused by friction between the support portion 11 and the motor wire.
[0029] In this embodiment, a plurality of reinforcing ribs are formed on the support platform 112 to achieve the purpose of structural stability and good strength.
[0030] In summary, the connection structure of the motor bracket 1 of this embodiment has the following characteristics: 1. The pre-fixed design of the motor bracket 1, the chassis 4 and the front panel 2 simplifies the assembly process through snap-fitting, thereby improving the installation efficiency. 2. The assembly method of the lower cross plate 12 and the chassis 4 reduces the difficulty of assembly and achieves a quick and stable connection. 3. The snap-fitting of the upper cross plate 13 and the front panel 2 also simplifies the assembly steps and improves the connection efficiency of the motor bracket 1 and the front panel 2. 4. The snap-fit design of the connecting plate 6, the upper cross plate 13 and the condenser 3 further simplifies the installation process of the motor bracket 1 and enhances the structural stability.
