DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The following describes this patent in detail with reference to the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit this patent, and any structural, methodological, or functional changes made by a person skilled in the art based on these embodiments are included within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , the present application provides an air pump assembly 100. In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 may include an air pump 1. The air pump 1 may also be called a vacuum pump. The air pump 1 can be used to remove gas or air from a relatively closed space, which space may be called a target air pumping space of the air pump 1. The air pump 1 can reduce the air pressure of the target air pumping space by removing the air in the target air pumping space, thereby creating a vacuum environment below atmospheric pressure, such as a low vacuum environment. The air pump 1 can also reduce the oxygen content in the target air pumping space by removing gases such as oxygen in the target air pumping space, thereby creating a low-oxygen environment.

[0040] The air pump 1 includes a pump inlet 11. The pump inlet 11 can be connected to a target air-pumping space. The air pump 1 draws gas from the target air-pumping space through the pump inlet 11.

[0041] The vacuum pump 1 may include a pump outlet 12. Gas drawn from the target vacuum space by the vacuum pump 1 may be discharged from the pump outlet 12 to the exterior of the vacuum pump 1. The pump outlet 12 may be connected to other structures to allow the discharged gas to enter the interior of the other structures, or the pump outlet 12 may be connected to the external environment to allow the gas to be discharged directly into the atmosphere.

[0042] The vacuum pump 1 may also include a drive system. This drive system may be an electric motor or a pneumatic system. The drive system is used to drive the vacuum pump 1. It drives the mechanical components of the pump through a transmission mechanism, causing the components within the pump chamber of the vacuum pump 1 to move, thereby completing the gas intake and exhaust process.

[0043] Reference Figure 4 , the present application provides a refrigeration device 1000. The refrigeration device 1000 may include a housing 1001, a storage chamber 1002 formed in the housing 1001, and a door body 1003 for opening and closing the storage chamber 1002. The refrigeration device 1000 may also include the vacuum pump assembly 100 in the present application. The target vacuuming space of the vacuum pump assembly 100 may be the storage chamber 1002, or it may be a space arranged inside the housing 1001, or the door body 1003, or the storage chamber 1002. Through the vacuum pump assembly 100, a special gas environment such as low oxygen or vacuum can be formed inside the refrigeration device 1000, thereby improving the functionality of the refrigeration device 1000 and providing a better storage environment for items stored in the refrigeration device 1000. The refrigeration device 1000 of the present application may be a refrigerator, a freezer, a commercial display cabinet, etc.

[0044] Reference Figure 4In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 can be disposed in the storage chamber 1002. The air pump assembly 100 is disposed in the storage chamber 1002, and the box body 1001 and the door body 1003 can seal the storage chamber 1002, thereby reducing the spread of noise from the air pump assembly 100 and improving the user experience.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present application, the vacuum pump assembly 100 may include a muffler 2. The muffler 2 may be used to reduce the noise generated when the vacuum pump 1 exhausts gas. The muffler 2 may include a housing 20. The housing 20 may be made of a durable material such as metal or plastic. The housing 20 may enclose and protect its internal structure while providing a relatively closed environment to reduce noise leakage.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8 , the silencer 2 may include a silencer chamber 21. A silencer chamber 21 may be formed inside the silencer 2, that is, inside the shell 20. The silencer 2 may include a silencer air inlet 22. The shell 20 may be provided with a silencer air inlet 22 connected to the silencer chamber 21. The pump outlet 12 may be connected to the silencer air inlet 22. The silencer air inlet 22 is used to allow the gas discharged from the pump outlet 12 to enter the silencer chamber 21. The silencer chamber 21 may be designed to be expansion-type relative to the silencer air inlet 22, so that the gas entering the silencer chamber 21 from the silencer air inlet can be suddenly decelerated, the sound waves can be reflected, and the energy of the sound waves can be attenuated, thereby reducing noise.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the muffler 2 may include a muffler exhaust portion 23. The housing 20 may be provided with a muffler exhaust portion 23 that communicates with the muffler cavity 21. The muffler exhaust portion 23 is an airflow discharge channel of the muffler 2. The airflow entering the muffler cavity 21 from the muffler air inlet portion 22 is muffled by the muffler cavity 21 and can be discharged into the atmosphere from the muffler exhaust portion 23.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the muffler exhaust portion 23 includes a metal tube 231. The inner diameter of the metal tube 231 is less than 0.7 mm. The gas entering the muffler cavity 21 from the muffler air inlet portion 22 is discharged through the metal tube 231.

[0049] The use of metal tube 231 to form an exhaust passage with a smaller diameter significantly increases the expansion ratio between the muffler chamber 21 and the exhaust duct, making the muffler 2 a reactive muffler 2 and significantly reducing the propagation of sound waves, thereby improving the muffler's effectiveness. The expansion ratio refers to the change in cross-sectional area of ​​airflow as it enters the metal tube 231 from the muffler chamber 21. The expansion ratio can be calculated by dividing the cross-sectional area of ​​the muffler chamber 21 by the cross-sectional area of ​​the metal tube 231.

[0050] The smaller inner diameter formed by the metal tube 231 can block and absorb part of the energy of the sound wave through mechanical damping and reflection, so that the noise is greatly attenuated when passing through the silencer exhaust part 23. In addition, the small-diameter metal tube 231 limits the sudden release of the airflow, eliminates the strong noise source during the exhaust process, and effectively reduces the overall noise output. Due to the small inner diameter of the metal tube 231, the airflow discharged from the silencer chamber 21 is significantly restricted when passing through the metal tube 231, resulting in a decrease in the airflow speed. The slowed airflow speed can reduce the turbulence in the airflow, thereby reducing the noise generated by the turbulence, allowing the gas to be smoothly released from the silencer chamber 21 into the atmosphere, reducing the sharpness of the noise caused by high-speed exhaust, and ensuring that no noise peaks are generated during gas discharge.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present application. The diameter of the metal tube 231 can be 0.5mm. Calculation shows that the cross-sectional area S2 of the diameter of the metal tube 231 is approximately 0.2mm2. If the cross-sectional area S1 of the silencer cavity 21 is 480mm2, then the expansion ratio of the silencer 2 is S2 / S1=2400. Through actual verification, its sound attenuation can reach more than 23dB. The larger the expansion ratio, the more conducive it is to the diffusion and reflection of sound waves, thereby reducing the energy of sound waves and thus reducing noise. The metal needle tube-type resistive silencer with a very high expansion ratio of the present application has a good sound attenuation effect, is smaller in size, and has a better cost-effectiveness.

[0052] Reference Figures 5 to 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the muffler air inlet 22 includes a muffler air inlet 222 located within the muffler cavity 21. The metal tube 231 includes a muffler air outlet 2311 located within the muffler cavity 21. The muffler air inlet 222 is oriented perpendicular to the muffler air outlet 2311. For example, the muffler air inlet 222 may be oriented upward, and the muffler air outlet 2311 may be oriented leftward or rightward, etc.

[0053] Since the silencer air inlet 222 and the silencer exhaust port 2311 are oriented vertically, the airflow will not flow directly to the silencer exhaust port 2311 after entering the silencer chamber 21 from the silencer air inlet 222, but will need to undergo a certain path change and diffusion, forcing the sound waves to be reflected and scattered multiple times in the silencer chamber 21, thereby increasing the path of the sound waves and the time they spend in the wall of the silencer chamber 21, so that the kinetic energy of the airflow can be further consumed, and the energy of the sound waves can be further reduced, thereby reducing the propagation of noise. In addition, this design can also improve the stability of the airflow in the silencer 2 and avoid turbulence causing additional noise.

[0054] Reference Figures 5 to 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the height of the silencer air inlet 222 is higher than the bottom surface of the silencer cavity 21. The height of the silencer exhaust port 2311 is higher than the bottom surface of the silencer cavity 21.

[0055] When the vacuum pump assembly 100 is set in the refrigeration equipment 1000, if the vacuum pump 1 extracts air from the storage room 1002 and other spaces, the airflow will carry a certain amount of moisture, causing the gas discharged by the vacuum pump 1 into the silencer chamber 21 to also carry a certain amount of moisture. After a period of time, water may accumulate in the silencer chamber 21. Since the temperature inside the refrigeration equipment 1000 is relatively low, if the water in the silencer chamber 21 enters the silencer air inlet 22 or the silencer exhaust 23, it is likely to cause the silencer air inlet 22 or the silencer exhaust 23 to freeze, thereby causing the silencer air inlet 22 and the silencer exhaust 23 to be blocked. This design ensures that there is no risk of water accumulation in the silencer air inlet 22 and the silencer exhaust 23 of the muffler 2 when the vacuum pump 1 is running, thereby avoiding freezing of the silencer air inlet 22 and the silencer exhaust 23.

[0056] In addition, the silencer air inlet 222 and the silencer exhaust port 2311 are designed to be higher than the bottom surface, which can also reduce the accumulation of impurities in the silencer air inlet 22 and the silencer exhaust 23. This helps to keep the silencer air inlet 22 and the silencer exhaust 23 clean, and reduce the air flow instability and additional noise caused by the accumulation of impurities. This design can extend the service life of the muffler 2 and reduce the maintenance frequency.

[0057] Reference Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8In one embodiment of the present application, a connection hole 232 is formed in the wall of the housing 20, which communicates with the silencer cavity 21. A metal tube 231 is inserted into the connection hole 232. The housing 20 can be formed by plastic injection molding. During the injection molding process of the housing 20, the connection hole 232 for the silencer inlet 22, the silencer cavity 21, and the silencer exhaust 23 is simultaneously formed. After the metal tube 231 is formed by metal processing and inserted into the connection hole 232 in the wall of the housing 20, the silencer exhaust 23 of the muffler 2 is formed.

[0058] The inner diameter of the plug hole 232 only needs to match the outer diameter of the metal tube 231, which reduces the difficulty of forming smaller apertures in the injection molding process. Using metal processing to form the metal tube 231 ensures that the metal tube 231 has a smaller diameter. The pluggable design of the metal tube 231 also allows it to be easily replaced during subsequent use if the metal tube 231 is worn or damaged due to long-term use, without having to replace the entire muffler 2. This increases the convenience of maintenance, reduces repair costs, and improves the durability of the muffler 2.

[0059] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8 In another embodiment of the present application, a method for manufacturing an air pump assembly 100 is provided. The method for manufacturing the air pump assembly 100 includes the following steps.

[0060] S1: The metal tube 231 is placed in a mold cavity of an injection mold, where the injection mold is used to injection mold the shell 20 of the muffler 2 .

[0061] S2: Injecting liquid plastic into the mold cavity, the liquid plastic at least wraps a portion of the outer wall of the metal tube 231 .

[0062] S3: After the plastic in the mold cavity is cooled and formed, the mold is removed to obtain the shell 20 with the metal tube 231 fixed thereto.

[0063] Different from the above-mentioned embodiment in which the metal tube 231 is plugged into the plug hole 232 of the shell 20. By directly wrapping the outer wall of the metal tube 231 with liquid plastic in the injection mold, the metal tube 231 can be firmly combined with the shell 20 after the plastic cools. This integrated molding fixing method ensures a close fit between the metal tube 231 and the shell 20, avoiding the problems of loosening or leakage that may occur in traditional methods. This combination method has high mechanical strength and can withstand stress and vibration during long-term use. At the same time, this method simplifies the assembly steps, improves production efficiency, and avoids problems such as loosening and sealing failure that occur in traditional fixing methods. Therefore, this manufacturing method can significantly improve the performance and reliability of the vacuum pump assembly 100 or the muffler 2, and is suitable for environments requiring high sealing and long-term stable operation.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the metal tube 231 is made of stainless steel. In other embodiments, the metal tube 231 can also be made of metals such as copper and aluminum.

[0065] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 includes a sleeve 102 located outside the housing 20. The sleeve 102 is sleeved around the metal tube 231. The metal tube 231 extends outside the housing 20. The sleeve 102 can be made of a non-metallic material such as plastic. The sleeve 102 protects the metal tube 231 from damage or deformation.

[0066] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8 In one embodiment of the present application, the muffler 2 is provided with a pump air inlet channel 24. The pump air inlet channel 24 includes a first channel end 241 and a second channel end 242. The first channel end 241 is used to connect to the target air extraction space of the air extraction pump 1. The second channel end 242 is used to connect to the pump air inlet portion 11.

[0067] Integrating the pump air intake channel 24 directly into the silencer 2 helps to reduce the number of pipes and connecting parts, making the overall structure of the vacuum pump assembly 100 more compact. Integrating the pump air intake channel 24 and the silencer 2 together can also help reduce vibration and resonance problems caused by external connection pipes. If the external connection pipe is long or does not have suitable support, it may generate vibrations when the vacuum pump 1 is running. These vibrations not only affect the stability of the equipment, but may also become an additional source of noise. By integrating the pump air intake channel 24 into the silencer 2, the external connection pipe can be eliminated as much as possible and vibration noise can be reduced. The integrated design of the silencer 2 and the air intake channel helps to limit the vibration and noise generated by the pump to the silencer 2, further reducing the propagation of noise and the resonance effect. In addition, integrating the pump air intake channel 24 with the silencer 2 can also reduce the length and tortuosity of the air intake pipe of the vacuum pump 1, provide a more direct airflow channel 91, reduce the formation of vortices and turbulence, and maintain a stable intake flow.

[0068] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 8In one embodiment of the present application, the housing 20 includes a housing body 201. A silencer chamber 21 is formed inside the housing body 201. A main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 is formed inside the housing body 201. A partition wall 246 is also formed inside the housing body 201, separating the silencer chamber 21 and the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24. The main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 passes through the housing body 201. The outer wall of the housing body 201 extends outward from one end of the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 to form a first column 243, and extends outward from the other end of the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 to form a second column 244. A first channel end 241 communicating with the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 is formed inside the first column 243. A second channel end 242 communicating with the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 is formed inside the second column 244.

[0069] By integrating the silencer cavity 21 and the main body 245 of the pump air inlet channel 24 inside the shell body 201, the overall structure of the muffler 2 can be made more compact, the volume of the component is reduced, the space occupied is reduced, and the sealing performance of the vacuum pump component 100 during the air intake process can be enhanced, reducing the possibility of gas leakage.

[0070] A partition wall 246 formed within the housing body 201 serves to isolate the muffler chamber 21 from the main portion 245 of the pump intake passage 24. This partition wall 246 not only structurally strengthens the overall rigidity of the housing 20 but also effectively prevents interference between the various chambers, ensuring the independent functionality of each component. This helps maintain the system's airtightness while reducing the transmission of noise and vibration between the various chambers, enhancing noise control effectiveness and ensuring the efficient operation of the muffler 2.

[0071] First column 243 and second column 244 respectively form first channel end 241 and second channel end 242 of pump inlet channel 24. This design optimizes the airflow input and output paths. Through the rational layout of the columns and channels, airflow enters and exits pump inlet channel 24 more smoothly, eliminating unnecessary bends and obstructions, reducing airflow turbulence, improving airflow stability, and further enhancing pump efficiency.

[0072] By integrating the pump air inlet channel 24, the silencer chamber 21, etc. into the shell 20 of the silencer 2, unified materials and manufacturing processes can be used for production, especially the use of injection molding technology, which can simplify the manufacturing process, reduce production costs, improve the matching accuracy between components, and improve the overall performance and reliability of the equipment.

[0073] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 9In one embodiment of the present application, the pump outlet 12 is spaced apart from and opposed to the muffler inlet 22. The pump inlet 11 is spaced apart from and opposed to the second channel end 242. The air extraction pump assembly 100 includes an outlet connecting pipe 7 connecting the pump outlet 12 and the muffler inlet 22. The air extraction pump assembly 100 includes an inlet connecting pipe 8 connecting the pump inlet 11 and the second channel end 242.

[0074] The design is such that the pump outlet 12 and the silencer inlet 22 are spaced apart and opposed to each other, and the pump inlet 11 and the second channel end 242 are spaced apart and opposed to each other, and the various components are connected by connecting pipes. This design avoids bending and crossing of the connecting pipes, so that the connection points of each connecting pipe maintain good accessibility, and technicians can easily remove or install each connecting pipe during installation and subsequent maintenance. This design also provides a clear airflow path, ensuring that the pump inlet and outlet channels are clearly separated, reducing the complexity during installation and the risk of incorrect pipe connection. The spaced-apart design can also ensure that the connecting pipes remain stable after installation, avoiding damage or falling off of the pipes due to pipe swinging or vibration caused by excessive length of the pipes.

[0075] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the air outlet connecting pipe 7 is an elastic tube. The air inlet connecting pipe 8 is an elastic tube. The elastic tube can effectively absorb the vibration generated by the vacuum pump assembly 100 during operation, which helps to improve the stability of the overall system. The flexible material properties of the elastic tube also reduce the mechanical resonance that may be generated during the operation of the vacuum pump 1, thereby extending the service life of the pipeline and reducing the vibration and noise of the vacuum pump assembly 100. The elastic tube can better fit the connecting parts during installation, and the deformable properties of its material allow for easier tight fit during connection, so as to ensure the air tightness of the connection between the air outlet connecting pipe 7, the air inlet connecting pipe 8 and the vacuum pump 1 and the muffler 2.

[0076] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the housing 201 includes a first wall 204 adjacent to the vacuum pump 1. The vacuum pump 1 includes a second wall 15 spaced apart from the first wall 204. The second column 244 and the muffler inlet 22 are both disposed on the first wall 204. The pump inlet 11 and the pump outlet 12 are both disposed on the second wall 15.

[0077] The pump inlet 11 and the pump outlet 12 of the vacuum pump 1 are both arranged on the same wall surface, and this wall surface is the wall surface opposite to the wall surface of the shell body 201. This can reduce the length of the air inlet connecting pipe 8 and the air outlet connecting pipe 7, facilitate the connection between the pump outlet 12 and the silencer air inlet 22, and facilitate the connection between the pump inlet 11 and the pump inlet channel 24. This layout not only simplifies the piping installation and maintenance of the vacuum pump assembly 100, optimizes airflow management and system layout, but also improves the overall efficiency and performance of the equipment, reduces airflow interference, and improves the sealing and maintainability of the system.

[0078] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 10 In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 includes a mounting box 3. The air pump 1 is disposed within the mounting box 3. The muffler 2 is disposed within the mounting box 3. The housing 20 of the muffler 2 is disposed within the mounting box 3. The mounting box 3 is enclosed. By placing both the air pump 1 and the muffler 2 within the mounting box 3, the mounting box 3 can be utilized to further isolate the vibration of the air pump 1 and the transmission of sound waves, thereby reducing the vibration and noise of the air pump assembly 100.

[0079] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, a mounting hole 33 is formed in the wall of the mounting box 3 to mate with the metal tube 231. One end of the metal tube 231 is inserted into the mounting hole 33. Gas within the silencing chamber 21 is discharged to the outside of the mounting box 3 through the metal tube 231. By inserting the metal tube 231 into the mounting hole 33 in the wall of the mounting box 3, the gas within the silencing chamber 21 can be discharged to the outside of the mounting box 3.

[0080] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the sleeve 102 is at least partially disposed within the mounting hole 33. One end of the sleeve 102 may abut against the outer wall of the housing 20, while the other end may be flush with or longer than the end of the metal tube 231. By completely enclosing the sleeve 102 around the outer wall of the metal tube 231, the metal tube 231 can be prevented from colliding with the wall of the mounting box 3 when inserted into the mounting hole 33, thereby better protecting the metal tube 231 and preventing damage or deformation.

[0081] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10In one embodiment of the present application, the mounting box 3 includes a box body 31. The upper end of the box body 31 has an open opening 37. The mounting box 3 includes a box cover 32 for opening and closing the open opening 37. The air pump 1 is arranged in the box body 31. The muffler 2 is arranged in the box body 31. Only the lower part of the muffler 2 can be located in the box body 31, and the upper part of the muffler 2 can be located in the shell cover 32. The muffler 2 is located above the air pump 1. The shell 20 is arranged in the box body 31. The shell 20 is arranged above the air pump 1. The bottom wall of the muffler 2, that is, the bottom wall of the shell body 201, is the first wall 204. The top wall of the air pump 1 is the second wall 15.

[0082] Reference Figure 1 In this application, the up-down direction may refer to the height direction of the installation box 3, the front-back direction may refer to the thickness direction of the installation box 3, and the left-right direction may refer to the width direction of the installation box 3. The direction in which the opening 37 of the box body 31 is opened is upward.

[0083] Reference Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, an elastic gasket 103 is disposed between the top wall of the housing 20 and the box cover 32. A mounting groove for mounting the elastic gasket 103 is formed in the box cover 32 or the top wall of the housing 20. The provision of the elastic gasket 103 can reduce the transmission of vibration and noise from the air pump 1.

[0084] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , Figure 5 、 Figure 6 In one embodiment of the present application, the first column 243 is arranged on the top wall of the shell body 201. The silencer exhaust part 23 is arranged on the side wall of the shell body 201. The side wall of the box cover 32 at least partially covers the side wall of the shell body 201. The side wall of the box cover 32 is formed with a mounting through hole 33 that cooperates with the metal tube 231. The metal tube 231 is inserted into the mounting through hole 33. The box cover 32 is formed with a mounting long hole 36 that cooperates with the first column 243. The first column 243 extends to the outside of the mounting box 3 through the mounting long hole 36. The length direction of the mounting long hole 36 is consistent with the extension direction of the metal tube 231. The aperture of the mounting long hole 36 close to the metal tube 231 is smaller than the diameter of the mounting long hole 36 away from the metal tube 231.

[0085] During installation, the muffler 2 can be moved upward relative to the box cover 32 so that the first column 243 passes through the larger portion of the mounting slot 36. When the metal tube 231 is opposite the mounting through-hole 33 on the side wall of the box cover 32, the muffler 2 can be moved toward the mounting through-hole 33 so that the metal tube 231 is gradually inserted into the mounting through-hole 33. During this process, the first column 243 gradually moves from the larger portion of the mounting slot 36 to the smaller portion until the outer wall of the first column 243 abuts the inner wall of the smaller portion of the mounting slot 36. By providing the mounting slot 36 with a diameter that varies along its length, it is possible to facilitate the insertion of the first column 243 from the larger portion of the mounting slot 36. Subsequently, as the first column 243 moves, the diameter of the mounting slot 36 decreases, allowing for better cooperation with the first column 243 and achieving the fixation of the first column 243.

[0086] The vacuum pump 1 is installed in the box body 31. The upper ends of the air inlet connecting pipe 8 and the air outlet connecting pipe 7 are respectively connected to the silencer air inlet portion 22 and the second column 244 on the bottom wall of the muffler 2. The assembly consisting of the muffler 2, the box cover 32, the air inlet connecting pipe 8, and the air outlet connecting pipe 7 can be moved downward so that the lower ends of the air inlet connecting pipe 8 and the air outlet connecting pipe 7 are respectively connected to the pump air inlet portion 11 and the pump air outlet portion 12 on the top wall of the vacuum pump 1, and then the box cover 32 can be connected to the box body 31 by connecting parts such as screws. A box seal can be provided between the box cover 32 and the box body 31. The box seal can seal the gap between the box cover 32 and the box body 31 to reduce the vibration and noise of the vacuum pump 1 from being transmitted outward.

[0087] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 9 The pump outlet portion 12 includes a first plug-in column 13 extending from the wall of the vacuum pump 1 toward the silencer inlet portion 22. An air outlet channel is formed inside the first plug-in column 13. The silencer inlet portion 22 includes a third column 221 extending from the wall of the shell 20 toward the pump outlet portion 12. An air inlet channel is formed inside the third column 221. One end of the air outlet connecting pipe 7 is plugged into the third column 221, and the other end is plugged into the first plug-in column 13. The air outlet connecting pipe 7 can limit the movement of the vacuum pump 1 toward the silencer inlet portion 22, and limit the circumferential movement of the vacuum pump 1 toward the first plug-in column 13, thereby reducing the vibration of the vacuum pump 1.

[0088] The pump air inlet portion 11 includes a second plug-in column 14 extending from the wall of the air pump 1 toward the second column 244. An air inlet passage is formed inside the second plug-in column 14. The second column 244 extends from the wall of the shell 20 toward the pump air inlet portion 11. One end of the air intake connecting pipe 8 is plugged into the second column 244, and the other end is plugged into the second plug-in column 14. The air intake connecting pipe 8 can limit the movement of the air pump 1 toward the second column 244, and limit the circumferential movement of the air pump 1 toward the second plug-in column 14, thereby reducing the vibration of the air pump 1.

[0089] The first plug-in post 13 and the second plug-in post 14 are both mounted on the top wall of the air pump 1 and extend upward. The second column 244 and the third column 221 are both mounted on the bottom wall of the muffler 2 and extend downward. The first plug-in post 13 and the third column 221 are located on the same axis and spaced opposite each other. The second plug-in post 14 and the second column 244 are also located on the same axis and spaced opposite each other.

[0090] The upper end of the outlet connecting pipe 7 is plugged into the outside of the third column 221 and can abut the bottom wall of the muffler 2. The lower end of the outlet connecting pipe 7 is plugged into the outside of the first plug-in column 13 and can abut the top wall of the air pump 1. The outlet connecting section can limit the upward position of the air pump 1 and also limit the circumferential position of the front, back, left, and right sides.

[0091] The upper end of the air intake connecting pipe 8 is plugged into the outside of the second column 244, and the upper end of the air intake connecting pipe 8 can abut the bottom wall of the muffler 2. The lower end of the air intake connecting pipe 8 is plugged into the outside of the second plug-in column 14, and the lower end of the air intake connecting pipe 8 can abut the top wall of the air pump 1. The air intake connecting pipe 8 can limit the air pump 1 upward, as well as the circumferential position of the front, back, left, and right. The air intake connecting pipe 8 and the air outlet connecting pipe 7 can better limit the position of the air pump 1, reducing the vibration and noise of the air pump 1.

[0092] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 7 In one embodiment of the present application, the muffler 2 may include a shell cover 202. An opening may be formed at the upper end of the shell body 201. The shell cover 202 may be used to open and close the opening at the upper end of the shell body 201. The pump air intake channel 24 may be fixed to the shell body 201. The shell cover 202 may be formed with a clearance opening 205 that cooperates with the first column 243, and the first column 243 may be inserted into the clearance opening 205. A shell seal may be provided between the shell cover 202 and the shell body 201. The shell seal may seal the gap between the shell cover 202 and the shell body 201, thereby improving the sealing performance of the muffler 2 and reducing noise.

[0093] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11In one embodiment of the present application, the outlet connecting pipe 7 includes an outlet pipe section 71. The air inlet end of the outlet pipe section 71 is located below its outlet end. The air extraction pump assembly 100 also includes a suspension member 9 movably disposed within the outlet pipe section 71. When the air extraction pump 1 is discharging air, the suspension member 9 is suspended within the outlet pipe section 71 under the action of the airflow in the outlet pipe section 71.

[0094] When the vacuum pump 1 is activated, the airflow from the pump outlet 12 to the silencer inlet 22 causes the suspended element 9 to rise and suspend in the outlet pipe section 71. At this point, the kinetic energy of the airflow is partially converted into the potential energy of the suspended element 9. This energy conversion consumes the energy of the airflow, reducing noise and vibration. The suspended element 9 suspended in the outlet pipe section 71 also creates a certain amount of aerodynamic resistance, increasing the damping effect on the gas flow and reducing the airflow velocity in the outlet pipe section 71. This helps to mitigate the impact and fluctuations of the airflow, thereby reducing vibration and noise.

[0095] As the airflow velocity decreases, the pressure within the outlet pipe section 71 and the muffler chamber 21 also decreases. Lower pressure effectively reduces airflow impact and gas vortexes, further reducing noise from the gas flow while also alleviating the vibration impact on surrounding structures. As the pressure within the outlet pipe section 71 and the muffler chamber 21 decreases, the overall hardness of the outlet pipe section 71 decreases. The increased flexibility of the outlet pipe section 71 effectively weakens the vibration transmission path, reducing sensitivity to vibration transmission, enabling better absorption and mitigation of vibrations, and reducing the transmission of vibrations to other parts.

[0096] The suspension 9 is provided in the outlet pipe section 71, which not only converts the energy of the airflow into the potential energy of the suspension 9, but also effectively reduces the vibration and noise transmission of the vacuum pump 1 by increasing the airflow damping, reducing the pressure and the hardness of the outlet pipe section 71.

[0097] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present application, an air flow channel 91 for air circulation is formed inside the suspension 9. The existence of the air flow channel 91 can disperse and slow down the speed and pressure of the air flow, thereby further reducing the vibration and noise caused by the air flow.

[0098] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present application, an airflow space is provided between the outer wall of the suspension member 9 and the inner wall of the air outlet pipe section 71. The outer diameter of the suspension member 9 is smaller than the inner diameter of the air outlet pipe section 71.

[0099] The suspension member 9 can be tubular. The extension direction of the tubular suspension member 9 can be consistent with the extension direction of the outlet pipe section 71. The length of the suspension member 9 can be greater than the inner diameter of the outlet pipe section 71 to prevent the suspension member 9 from rotating up and down within the outlet pipe section 71 under the influence of the airflow. The outlet pipe section 71 is sleeved outside the tubular suspension member 9.

[0100] By leaving airflow space between the outlet pipe section 71 and the suspension 9, the physical contact between the suspension 9 and the outlet pipe section 71 is reduced, reducing the direct transmission of vibration. This can effectively reduce the vibration transmission caused by mechanical contact, thereby improving the system's vibration reduction effect and reducing the vibration and noise during the operation of the air pump 1. The difference between the outer and inner diameters of the suspension 9 allows the airflow to be evenly distributed around the suspension 9. The pressure difference of the airflow helps to balance the posture of the suspension 9, so that the suspension 9 can maintain its suspended position in the airflow space, thereby stabilizing the suspension 9 and preventing the suspension 9 from shaking or shifting due to uneven airflow.

[0101] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present application, the suspension 9 can slide up and down between the air inlet and air outlet ends of the air outlet pipe section 71. The inner diameter of the air inlet end of the air outlet pipe section 71 is smaller than the outer diameter of the suspension 9. The inner diameter of the air outlet end of the air outlet pipe section 71 is smaller than the outer diameter of the suspension 9.

[0102] The inner diameters of both the inlet and outlet ends of outlet pipe section 71 are smaller than the outer diameter of suspension element 9, ensuring that suspension element 9 can only slide between these two ends and cannot slip out of the pipe section. This effectively limits the range of motion of suspension element 9 and prevents it from becoming detached from the pipe or becoming stuck. Because suspension element 9 can slide up and down within outlet pipe section 71, its position automatically adjusts based on changes in airflow pressure. When airflow increases, suspension element 9 moves upward, and when airflow decreases, suspension element 9 moves downward. This flexible movement helps to buffer airflow impact, reduce vibration transmission, and reduce airflow noise.

[0103] The specific weight and size of the suspension 9 can be determined according to the flow rate of the air from the pump outlet 12 to the silencer inlet 22 .

[0104] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11In one embodiment of the present application, the suspension 9 is made of an elastic material. The suspension 9 made of elastic material can effectively absorb and buffer the impact force generated by airflow or vibration. When the suspension 9 is pushed or vibrated by the airflow, the elastic material can absorb part of the energy by deformation, reduce the transmission of mechanical vibration, and thus reduce the overall vibration of the vacuum pump assembly 100, greatly improving the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect. The soft nature of the elastic material also reduces the direct hard contact between the suspension 9 and other components, reduces the wear between mechanical components, which not only improves the durability of the suspension 9, but also protects the air outlet pipe section 71 and other related components, and extends the service life of the entire vacuum pump assembly 100. The air outlet connecting pipe 7 can be an elastic tube as mentioned above.

[0105] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present application, the outlet pipe section 71 is arranged vertically or obliquely. The outlet connecting pipe 7 can extend vertically or obliquely upward as a whole, or only the outlet pipe section 71 can extend vertically or obliquely upward. Preferably, the outlet connecting pipe 7 extends vertically and upward as a whole, and the outlet pipe section 71 is equivalent to the outlet connecting pipe 7.

[0106] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 and Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present application, the silencer air inlet 22 is located on the pump outlet 12. The vacuum pump assembly 100 includes a mounting box 3. The mounting box 3, the vacuum pump 1, and the muffler 2 can be arranged as described above. That is, the mounting box 3 includes a box body 31, the air inlet end of the box body 31 has an open opening 37, the mounting box 3 includes a box cover 32 for opening and closing the open opening 37, the vacuum pump 1 and the muffler 2 are both arranged in the box body 31, the muffler 2 is located above the vacuum pump 1, the silencer air inlet 22 is arranged on the bottom wall of the muffler 2, the pump outlet 12 is arranged on the top wall of the vacuum pump 1, and the silencer air inlet 22 and the pump outlet 12 are spaced apart and relative to each other.

[0107] Reference Figure 1 、 Figures 5 to 7 、 Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the length and radial dimensions of the outlet connecting pipe 7 are matched with the volume of the muffler chamber 21 to form a plug-in Helmholtz resonator.

[0108] The Helmholtz resonator not only absorbs noise but also effectively reduces vibration caused by airflow pulsation. When air flows through the outlet connection pipe 7, the in-tube Helmholtz resonator suppresses pressure fluctuations caused by airflow disturbances, reducing the vibration transmission from airflow impact to the system structure, thereby improving the vibration reduction effect.

[0109] By adjusting the length and radial dimensions of the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the volume of the silencer chamber 21, the resonant frequency of the intubation-type Helmholtz resonator formed by the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the silencer chamber 21 can be flexibly adjusted to optimize the processing for different noise frequencies and vibrations, thereby improving the noise and vibration suppression capability of the system.

[0110] The parameter design of the air outlet connecting pipe 7 and the muffler cavity 21 can satisfy the following formula:

[0111]

[0112] Where f is the resonant frequency (Hz) that the intubation Helmholtz resonator formed by the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the silencer chamber 21 needs to reach. The intubation Helmholtz resonator formed by the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the silencer chamber 21 can be consistent with the noise frequency generated by the vacuum pump 1. When the noise frequency is consistent with the resonant frequency of the Helmholtz resonator, the sound wave passes through the neck of the resonator, i.e. the outlet connecting pipe 7, and excites the vibration of the air in the silencer chamber 21. This vibration process converts the sound energy into heat energy or dissipates it, reducing the energy of the noise and achieving a noise reduction effect. v refers to the speed of sound, which is usually 343m / s. A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet connecting pipe 7. V refers to the volume of the silencer chamber 21. L is the effective length of the outlet connecting pipe 7. The effective length usually includes the actual length of the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the acoustic effect correction length near the opening of the outlet connecting pipe 7. Usually, a part of the opening radius of the outlet connecting pipe 7 (usually 0.61 times the opening radius) is used as the correction amount. By adjusting the cross-sectional area and length of the outlet connecting pipe 7 and the volume of the muffler chamber 21 , a plug-in Helmholtz resonator with a special resonance frequency can be formed to absorb noise of a specific frequency of the air pump 1 .

[0113] Reference Figure 1 、 Figures 5 to 7 、 Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present application, the silencer 2 constituting the in-tube Helmholtz resonator may be provided with a silencer exhaust portion 23 connected to the silencer cavity 21. The silencer exhaust portion 23 includes a metal tube 231. The inner diameter of the metal tube 231 is less than 0.7 mm. The gas in the silencer cavity 21 is discharged through the metal tube 231. The silencer exhaust portion 23 and the metal tube 231 of the silencer 2 may be arranged as described above. Since the diameter of the metal tube 231 is relatively small, the silencer cavity 21 is approximately closed, and the exhaust has a relatively low influence on the resonance of the silencer cavity 21 of the in-tube Helmholtz resonator.

[0114] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figures 12 to 14In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 further includes a vibration damper 4. The vibration damper 4 is fixed within the mounting box 3. A receiving cavity 40 is formed within the vibration damper 4. The vibration damper 4 is integrally formed from a vibration damping material. At least the bottom of the air pump 1 is fixed within the receiving cavity 40.

[0115] The design of the vibration damper 4 and the accommodating cavity 40 of the air pump 1 makes the installation of the pump easier, without the need for additional complex fasteners. The pump can be directly placed in the vibration damper 4 for fixation, thereby improving installation efficiency. Since the vibration damper 4 is integrally formed with the accommodating cavity 40, the accommodating cavity 40 can not only fix the air pump 1, but also prevent the air pump 1 from directly contacting the mounting box 3. This simplifies the installation structure, makes the structure compact, reduces the space occupied, is low-cost, and is easy to process. It can effectively absorb and attenuate the vibration generated by the air pump 1 during operation, thereby reducing the transmission of vibration to the mounting box 3 and avoiding the adverse effects of vibration on other components of the system.

[0116] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figures 12 to 14 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration damping member 4 includes a vibration damping bottom wall 41 abutting against the bottom wall of the air pump 1. The vibration damping bottom wall 41 is provided with a vibration damping seat 411 protruding downward. The vibration damping seat 411 abuts against the bottom wall of the installation box 3.

[0117] The dual design of the vibration-damping bottom wall 41 and the vibration-damping seat 411 helps isolate vibration sources. During operation, the vibration of the vacuum pump 1 is first partially absorbed by the vibration-damping bottom wall 41. The remaining vibration is then further attenuated when transmitted to the bottom wall of the mounting box 3 through the vibration-damping seat 411. This layered vibration-damping structure significantly reduces vibration transmission. The protruding design of the vibration-damping seat 411 provides better and more stable support for the vacuum pump 1 while maintaining vibration damping performance, preventing system resonance caused by accumulated vibration.

[0118] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figures 12 to 14 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration-damping seat 411 includes a vibration-damping support wall 412. The vibration-damping support wall 412 abuts the bottom wall of the mounting box 3. The vibration-damping seat 411 includes a vibration-damping limiting wall 413. The vibration-damping limiting wall 413 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the mounting box 3. The bottom wall of the mounting box 3 is provided with an upwardly extending limiting post 38. The vibration-damping limiting wall 413 abuts the circumferential sidewall of the limiting post 38.

[0119] The vibration-damping support wall 412 directly abuts the bottom wall of the mounting box 3, limiting the downward movement of the vibration damper 4 by the mounting box 3, enabling the vibration damper 4 to provide basic support and vibration reduction functions for the air pump 1. The vibration-damping limiting wall 413 abuts the circumferential side walls of the limiting column 38, thereby achieving lateral limitation of the vibration damper 4 by the mounting box 3, enhancing the lateral stability of the vibration damper 4, and preventing the vibration damper 4 from moving due to vibration or external force during operation of the air pump 1. This allows the vibration damper 4 to provide lateral limitation for the air pump 1 and ensure that the air pump 1 always remains in the correct position, avoiding displacement or rotation during vibration.

[0120] The vibration-damping limiting wall 413 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration-damping supporting wall 412 for longitudinal limitation and the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 for lateral limitation are separately arranged, which can reduce the vibration transmission from the vibration-damping component 4 to the installation box 3, so that only the vibration-damping supporting wall 412 will directly transmit the vibration to the bottom wall of the installation box 3, while the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 will directly transmit the vibration to the limiting column 38, and will not directly transmit it to the bottom wall of the installation box 3, thereby improving the vibration reduction effect on the vacuum pump 1 and reducing the vibration of the installation box 3.

[0121] Reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 is in the form of a closed ring with the ends connected. The vibration-damping support wall 412 is spaced apart from the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 and surrounds the outer side of the vibration-damping limiting wall 413.

[0122] The closed annular vibration-damping limiting wall 413 forms a continuous structure that evenly distributes and absorbs vibration energy in all directions. This ensures that regardless of the direction in which the vibration damper 4 is subjected to vibration or impact, the limiting wall can prevent the vibration damper 4 from deflecting or rotating by contacting the limiting post 38. The closed annular vibration-damping limiting wall 413 provides a clear limiting and support area. Installers only need to insert the limiting post 38 into the area enclosed by the annular vibration-damping limiting wall 413 to secure and limit the vibration damper 4, eliminating the need for excessive adjustment or alignment, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0123] The vibration-damping support wall 412 surrounds the outer side of the vibration-damping limiting wall 413, and the two are spaced apart, further enhancing the support and limiting effects. The vibration-damping support wall 412 primarily provides vertical support and vibration reduction, while the vibration-damping limiting wall 413, through its annular design, enhances the horizontal limiting effect. The two work together to more effectively control vibration in both vertical and horizontal directions.

[0124] Reference Figure 13In one embodiment of the present application, the support and limiting wall has a notch 418. The notch 418 design of the support and limiting wall can provide a vibration-damping buffer zone, allowing the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 to undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation, thereby further absorbing and dissipating vibration energy and enhancing the vibration reduction effect. The notch 418 design not only improves the buffering performance of the vibration damping member 4, but also reduces stress concentration caused by excessive vibration, making the air pump assembly 100 operate more smoothly. In other embodiments, the support and limiting wall can also be a closed ring.

[0125] Reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration-damping limiting wall 413 includes a first annular wall 414 that abuts the circumferential sidewall of the limiting post 38. The vibration-damping limiting wall 413 also includes a second annular wall 415 disposed between the first annular wall 414 and the vibration-damping support wall 412. The distance between the second annular wall 415 and the vibration-damping support wall 412 is greater than the distance between the second annular wall 415 and the first annular wall 414. A first vibration-damping rib 416 is connected between the first annular wall 414 and the second annular wall 415. A second vibration-damping rib 417 is connected between the second annular wall 415 and the vibration-damping support wall 412.

[0126] By tightly integrating the first annular wall 414 with the limiting column 38, the lateral displacement of the vibration damper 4 is limited, preventing deviation caused by vibration of the air pump 1. The second annular wall 415 and the first annular wall 414 are connected by the first vibration-damping rib 416, further strengthening the stability of the entire limiting structure. The spacing between the first annular wall 414 and the second annular wall 415 is smaller than the spacing between the second annular wall 415 and the vibration-damping support wall 412. This progressive structural design distributes vibration forces in layers, ensuring limiting while avoiding stress concentration in the equipment caused by excessive limiting. By providing a multi-layered annular wall structure, vibration damping performance is significantly improved. Each annular wall can withstand vibration impacts of different directions and amplitudes, providing more effective vibration absorption and energy dispersion for the system, significantly reducing vibration energy transmission. The first vibration-damping rib 416 and the second vibration-damping rib 417 further enhance the stability and vibration damping effect of this multi-layered structure. As the structure connecting the annular walls, the vibration-damping ribs not only provide support but also elastically deform when vibration occurs, thereby absorbing vibration forces and effectively reducing vibration impact.

[0127] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figures 12 to 14 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration damping member 4 includes vibration damping side walls 42 that abut against the front and rear walls and the left and right side walls of the air pump 1. The vibration damping side walls 42 are spaced apart from the wall of the installation box 3. The vibration damping side walls 42 include vibration damping limiting ribs 421 that protrude toward the wall of the installation box 3.

[0128] The vibration-damping sidewalls 42 directly abut the front, rear, and left and right sidewalls of the vacuum pump 1, providing all-around vibration-damping protection. This design absorbs vibration energy from different directions. Whether it's front-to-back or left-to-right vibration, the vibration-damping sidewalls 42 effectively buffer it, thereby enhancing the overall vibration-damping effect. The vibration-damping sidewalls 42 tightly abut the four sidewalls of the vacuum pump 1, effectively preventing displacement or shaking of the vacuum pump 1 during operation, ensuring the firm fixation of the vacuum pump 1 and preventing it from shifting or tilting.

[0129] The spacing design between the vibration-damping side wall 42 and the wall of the installation box 3 provides additional deformation space for the vibration-damping material, ensuring that the vibration-damping side wall 42 will not rub against the wall of the installation box 3 during vibration, avoiding noise or wear problems caused by vibration friction. When the air pump 1 vibrates, the vibration-damping side wall 42 can produce a certain deformation within this interval, thereby absorbing more vibration force and reducing the transmission of vibration to the installation box 3, which can effectively protect the air pump 1 and the installation box 3.

[0130] The vibration-damping limiting ribs 421 can abut against the wall of the installation box 3 or against a structure fixed inside the installation box 3. The design of the vibration-damping limiting ribs 421 not only improves the limiting effect, but also provides stronger impact protection for the vibration damping member 4, effectively dissipates the impact force, and reduces friction and wear between the vibration damping member 4 and the wall of the installation box 3 or the internal structure of the installation box 3.

[0131] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 12 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration damper 4 includes a vibration damper upper wall 43. The vibration damper upper wall 43 abuts against a portion of the top wall of the air pump 1. The upper end of the vibration damper 4 has an installation opening 44. The air pump 1 is placed in the accommodating chamber 40 through the installation opening 44.

[0132] The vibration-damping upper wall 43 can undergo elastic deformation and can temporarily expand the installation opening 44 during the installation process, so that the vacuum pump 1 can be easily placed in the accommodating cavity 40 of the vibration-damping component 4, simplifying the installation process and enabling the rapid installation of the vacuum pump 1. After the vacuum pump 1 is placed in the accommodating cavity 40, the vibration-damping upper wall 43 returns to its original shape, clinging to and abutting against the top wall of the vacuum pump 1, providing a fixing and limiting function. This elastic design avoids complex fastening or additional mechanical limiting mechanisms, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience of installation. The vibration-damping upper wall 43 not only has a limiting function, but the characteristics of its elastic material also provide additional vibration-damping capabilities. The top wall of the vacuum pump 1 may generate vibrations in the vertical direction during operation. Through the elastic deformation of the vibration-damping upper wall 43, these vibrations can be effectively absorbed and dispersed, reducing the transmission of vibrations to other components.

[0133] Reference Figures 15 to 17In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 includes a suspension member 5. The suspension member 5 includes a connecting portion 51 disposed within the mounting box 3 and an elastic arm 52 connected to the connecting portion 51. The elastic arm 52 is integrally formed from an elastic material. The air pump 1 is connected to the connecting portion 51. The elastic arm 52 is connected to the wall of the mounting box 3. The suspension member 5 suspends the air pump 1 within the mounting box 3 via the connecting portion 51 and the elastic arm 52.

[0134] Suspending the vacuum pump 1 within the mounting box 3 via the elastic arm 52 effectively reduces the transmission of vibrations generated during operation to the mounting box 3 and external structures. Because the elastic arm 52 is elastically deformable, when the vacuum pump 1 vibrates during operation, the elastic arm 52 absorbs and cushions the vibrational force through its own deformation, significantly reducing the transmission of vibrational energy to the walls of the mounting box 3. This prevents direct frictional contact between the vacuum pump 1 and the mounting box 3, reducing wear on the component surfaces and avoiding noise or losses caused by friction. The elastic arm 52 is integrally formed from an elastic material, making it simple to process, easy to mold, and inexpensive.

[0135] Reference Figures 15 to 17 In one embodiment of the present application, an accommodating space 53 is formed inside the connecting portion 51 . An accommodating opening 54 is formed at the upper end of the connecting portion 51 . At least the lower portion of the air pump 1 is placed in the accommodating space 53 through the accommodating opening 54 .

[0136] The connecting portion 51 forms an accommodating opening 54 and an internal accommodating space 53, so that the installer can place the lower part of the vacuum pump 1 directly into the accommodating space 53 through the accommodating opening 54 without the need for complicated fixing or alignment steps, thereby reducing the operational complexity during the installation process and improving the installation efficiency. After the lower part of the vacuum pump 1 is placed in the accommodating space 53 of the connecting portion 51, it can be fully supported and fixed. The accommodating space 53 provides a stable space, so that the lower part of the vacuum pump 1 can be firmly embedded therein and is not prone to displacement or loosening. By placing the lower part of the vacuum pump 1 in the accommodating space 53, the weight of the vacuum pump 1 can be evenly distributed on the structure of the connecting portion 51, thereby improving the overall load-bearing capacity and stability.

[0137] Reference Figures 15 to 18 In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic arm 52 includes a free end 524 distal to the connecting portion 51. The free end 524 of the elastic arm 52 is provided with an elastic retaining protrusion 523. A fixing hole 39 is formed in the wall of the mounting box 3. The outer diameter of at least a portion of the elastic retaining protrusion 523 is larger than the diameter of the fixing hole 39. The elastic retaining protrusion 523 elastically deforms from the inside of the mounting box 3, passes through the fixing hole 39, and abuts against the outside of the wall of the mounting box 3.

[0138] The elastic limiting protrusion 523 is designed to have an outer diameter larger than the aperture of the fixing hole 39, which means that during the installation process, the protrusion must undergo elastic deformation to pass through the fixing hole 39. After the elastic limiting protrusion 523 passes through, since its outer diameter is larger than the aperture, it will tightly abut against the outside of the installation box 3 to form a stable connection. This design ensures a firm connection between the elastic arm 52 and the wall of the installation box 3, effectively preventing the equipment from loosening or shifting during operation. The design of the elastic limiting protrusion 523 makes the installation process easier. The installer only needs to press the protrusion through the fixing hole 39 through elastic deformation, without the need to use additional fasteners such as screws and nuts. This integrated connection method reduces the installation steps and improves installation efficiency. When the vacuum pump 1 generates vibration or impact during operation, the elastic protrusion can also absorb and buffer the vibration force through its elastic deformation, reducing the impact of vibration on the wall of the installation box 3 and the elastic arm 52, further improving the vibration reduction effect of the system, and ensuring that the vacuum pump 1 can operate smoothly during operation.

[0139] Reference Figures 15 to 17 In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic wall includes an upper elastic arm 521 and a lower elastic arm 522. The free end 524 of the upper elastic arm 521 is connected to the wall of the installation box 3 above the connecting portion 51 to provide an upward pulling force for the connecting portion 51. The free end 524 of the lower elastic arm 522 is connected to the wall of the installation box 3 below the connecting portion 51 to provide a downward pulling force for the connecting portion 51.

[0140] The upper elastic arm 521 and the lower elastic arm 522 respectively provide an upward pulling force and a downward pulling force for the connecting portion 51. This two-way pulling design ensures that the position of the connecting portion 51 in the mounting box 3 is more stable and will not be displaced or loosened due to a force in a single direction. Through the combined action of the upper and lower elastic arms 52, the vacuum pump 1 can obtain stable support in multiple directions, reducing the possibility of the vacuum pump 1 moving up and down during operation, ensuring that the vacuum pump 1 always remains in the correct position during operation, and avoiding displacement or tilting caused by vibration or impact.

[0141] Reference Figures 15 to 17 In one embodiment of the present application, the upper elastic arm 521 includes a first elastic arm 5211 , a second elastic arm 5212 , a third elastic arm 5213 , and a fourth elastic arm 5214 , which are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the connecting portion 51 .

[0142] By distributing four elastic arms 52 providing upward pulling force around the circumference of the connecting portion 51, the connecting portion 51 can receive uniform pulling force in all four directions. The pulling force applied by each elastic arm 52 to the connecting portion 51 is balanced, effectively preventing tilting or displacement due to force applied in a single direction. This allows the vacuum pump 1 to remain stable in environments with multi-directional vibration or impact, ensuring that the vacuum pump 1 can obtain stable suspension support when subjected to vibration or external impact, and reducing the possibility of the vacuum pump 1 shaking or swaying in any direction.

[0143] Reference Figure 15 、 Figure 16 In one embodiment of the present application, the first elastic arm 5211 is located on the front side of the connecting portion 51 and is connected to the middle portion of the upper end of the front wall of the connecting portion 51. The second elastic arm 5212 is located on the rear side of the connecting portion 51 and is connected to the middle portion of the upper end of the rear wall of the connecting portion 51. The third elastic arm 5213 is located on the left side of the connecting portion 51 and is connected to the middle portion of the upper end of the left wall of the connecting portion 51. The fourth elastic arm 5214 is located on the right side of the connecting portion 51 and is connected to the middle portion of the upper end of the right wall of the connecting portion 51. The lower elastic arm 522 is located below the connecting portion 51 and is connected to the middle portion of the bottom wall of the connecting portion 51.

[0144] Since the four elastic arms 52 are respectively located in the front, back, left and right directions of the connecting part 51, and the elastic arms 52 are all connected to the middle of the upper end of the wall, the tension is evenly distributed. This symmetrical distribution design effectively prevents the connecting part 51 from shifting or tilting under the action of vibration or external force, and can provide a balanced limiting effect for the connecting part 51, reducing the risk of displacement of the equipment in multiple directions. The lower elastic arm 522 is located at the center of the bottom, which can provide vertical limitation for the connecting part 51 and enhance the vertical vibration reduction effect. The elastic arms 52 are distributed around and at the bottom of the vacuum pump 1, providing uniform tension and support, ensuring that the vacuum pump 1 remains stable under multi-directional vibration or impact conditions.

[0145] Reference Figures 15 to 18 In one embodiment of the present application, the free end 524 of the upper elastic arm 521 is connected to the box cover 32. An elastic retaining protrusion 523 is provided at the upper end of the upper elastic wall, and the box cover 32 is formed with a fixing hole 39 that cooperates with the elastic retaining protrusion 523 of the upper elastic wall. A first fixing hole, a second fixing hole, a third fixing hole, and a fourth fixing hole are respectively formed in the middle of the lower ends of the front, rear, left, and right side walls of the box cover 32. The first fixing hole, the second fixing hole, the third fixing hole, and the fourth fixing hole are respectively used to cooperate with the elastic retaining protrusion 523 of the first elastic arm 5211, the second elastic arm 5212, the third elastic arm 5213, and the fourth elastic arm 5214.

[0146] The free end 524 of the lower elastic arm 522 is connected to the bottom wall of the shell body 201. The lower end of the lower elastic arm 522 is provided with an elastic limiting protrusion 523, and the middle of the bottom wall of the shell body 201 is formed with a fixing hole 39 that cooperates with the elastic limiting protrusion 523 of the lower elastic wall.

[0147] Fixing holes 39 cooperating with the elastic arm 52 are formed respectively through the box cover 32 and the shell body 201, which can facilitate the installation and fixation of the elastic arm 52, provide uniform pulling force and support for the vacuum pump 1, and ensure that the vacuum pump 1 remains stable under multi-directional vibration or impact conditions.

[0148] Reference Figure 15 and Figure 16 In one embodiment of the present application, the connecting portion 51 is made of an elastic material. The connecting portion 51 and the elastic arm 52 are integrally formed of the elastic material. In other embodiments of the present application, the connecting portion 51 may also adopt a rigid structure.

[0149] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 15 and Figure 16 In one embodiment of the present application, the connecting portion 51 can replace the above-mentioned vibration damping member 4 and serve as the vibration damping member of the air pump. The specific structure of the connecting portion 51 can be the same as or similar to the above-mentioned vibration damping member 4. That is, the connecting portion 51 can include a vibration damping bottom wall 41 that abuts the bottom wall of the air pump 1. However, the connecting portion 51 may not have a vibration damping seat 411 protruding downward from the vibration damping bottom wall 41. The vibration damping bottom wall 41 can be separated from the installation box 3 by a certain space. The connecting portion 51 may include vibration damping side walls 42 that abut the front and rear and left and right side walls of the air pump 1. The vibration damping side walls 42 can be spaced apart from the wall of the installation box 3. The vibration damping side walls 42 can include vibration damping limiting ribs 421 protruding toward the wall of the installation box 3. The vibration damping side walls 42 may also not be provided with vibration damping limiting ribs 421. The connecting portion 51 may include a vibration damping upper wall 43. The vibration damping upper wall 43 can abut against part of the top wall of the air pump 1. The vibration-damping upper wall 43 can be elastically deformed to temporarily enlarge the accommodating opening 54 during the installation of the air pump 1 , so that the air pump 1 can be easily placed in the accommodating space 53 of the connecting portion 51 .

[0150] The elastic arm 52 and the connecting portion 51 work together to suspend the vacuum pump 1 within the mounting box 3, ensuring that the vacuum pump 1 remains stably suspended despite multi-directional vibration and impact. The elastic arm 52 and the connecting portion 51 are integrally formed from an elastic material, which is simple to manufacture and easy to secure, thereby improving installation efficiency and reducing costs. Both the elastic arm 52 and the connecting portion 51 are capable of absorbing vibration energy, thereby improving the operational stability of the vacuum pump 1, enhancing the vibration reduction effect, and simplifying the installation and maintenance process.

[0151] In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic material may be rubber. In other embodiments, the elastic material may also be made of other materials, such as silicone. The vibration damping member 4 or the suspension member 5 may be integrally formed of an elastic material.

[0152] Reference Figures 15 to 17 In one embodiment of the present application, the outer diameter of the elastic limiting protrusion 523 gradually decreases as it approaches the free end 524 of the elastic arm 52. The elastic limiting protrusion 523 may be conical. This design facilitates the installation of the elastic limiting protrusion 523.

[0153] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 may include an air pump module. The air pump module is disposed within the mounting box 3. The air pump assembly 100 also includes a counterweight 10 disposed within the mounting box 3. The counterweight 10 is disposed between the wall of the mounting box 3 and the air pump module, abutting the wall of the mounting box 3 and the air pump module.

[0154] The counterweight 10 effectively absorbs and reduces vibrations generated by the vacuum pump module during operation through its own weight and cushioning effect. The presence of the counterweight 10 helps disperse the vibration force generated by the vacuum pump module, thereby preventing the vibration from being directly transmitted to the walls of the mounting box 3, further improving the system's vibration reduction performance and maintaining smooth operation of the equipment.

[0155] The counterweight 10 abuts between the wall of the mounting box 3 and the vacuum pump module, simplifying its installation and securing. The counterweight 10 also serves as an intermediate buffer layer, acting as a vibration damper in a vibrating environment, effectively reducing the impact of the vacuum pump module's vibration on the mounting box 3. The presence of the counterweight 10 also effectively prevents excessive displacement or shaking of the vacuum pump module.

[0156] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump module includes a vibration damper 4 and an air pump 1. A accommodating cavity 40 is formed inside the vibration damper 4, and the air pump 1 is at least partially placed in the accommodating cavity 40. The vibration damper 4 is integrally formed of a vibration damping material. The counterweight 10 is arranged between the wall of the mounting box 3 and the vibration damper 4. The counterweight 10 abuts against the vibration damper 4. In other embodiments of the present application, the air pump module may also only include the air pump 1, and it is known to include the air pump 1 and other components, such as the suspension 5.

[0157] The counterweight 10 abuts against the vibration damper 4. This combined design further enhances the vibration damping effect of the vacuum pump 1. The vibration damper 4 is integrally formed of a vibration damping material and can effectively absorb the vibration generated during the operation of the vacuum pump 1. The counterweight 10 serves as an intermediate buffer layer between the vibration damper 4 and the wall of the mounting box 3, and also helps to reduce the vibration and noise during the operation of the vacuum pump 1. The counterweight 10 is located between the wall of the mounting box 3 and the vibration damper 4, and can also support and limit the displacement of the vibration damper 4, preventing the vibration damper 4 from moving or tilting due to vibration or external force.

[0158] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 12 、 Figure 13 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration damper 4 may be as described above. The vibration damper 4 may include a vibration damper side wall 42 that abuts against the front and rear and left and right side walls of the vacuum pump 1. The vibration damper side wall 42 is spaced apart from the side wall of the mounting box 3. The vibration damper side wall 42 may be provided with a vibration damper limiting rib 421 that protrudes toward the wall of the mounting box 3. The vibration damper limiting rib 421 may abut against the counterweight 10. The vibration damper 4 may include a vibration damper bottom wall 41 and a vibration damper top wall. In other embodiments, the counterweight 10 may also be provided between the top wall of the mounting box 3 and the vibration damper top wall, or between the bottom wall of the mounting box 3 and the vibration damper bottom wall 41. By providing the counterweight 10 between the mounting box 3 and the side wall of the vibration damper 4, and making the vibration damper limiting rib 421 abut against the counterweight 10, the vibration damping and noise reduction effect can be improved, the counterweight 10 is prevented from directly contacting the wall surface of the vibration damper 4, and the wear of the vibration damper 4 is reduced.

[0159] Reference Figure 14 、 Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, a fixing rib 34 is provided on the inner wall of the installation box 3. The fixing rib 34 includes a limiting plate 341 and a connecting plate 342. The limiting plate 341 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the installation box 3. The connecting plate 342 connects the inner wall of the installation box 3 and the limiting plate 341. The fixing rib 34 includes a first fixing rib 343 and a second fixing rib 344 spaced apart from each other on the inner wall of the installation box 3. The first fixing rib 343 and the second fixing rib 344 enclose an insertion space 345. The counterweight 10 is inserted into the insertion space 345. The limiting plates 341 of the first fixing rib 343 and the second fixing rib 344 are both in contact with the counterweight 10.

[0160] The first fixing rib 343 and the second fixing rib 344 can firmly fix the counterweight 10 in the installation box 3 through the insertion space 345 formed by the limit plate 341 and the connecting plate 342. After the counterweight 10 is inserted into the insertion space 345, it abuts against the limit plates 341 of the two fixing ribs 34, preventing the counterweight 10 from being displaced or shaking during operation. This ensures that the counterweight 10 is always in the correct working position and improves the overall stability of the equipment. The design of the insertion space 345 simplifies the installation process of the counterweight 10. During installation, the counterweight 10 only needs to be inserted into the insertion space 345 and abut against the limit plate 341, without the need for additional fixings or complicated installation operations. This design not only simplifies the installation process, but also reduces the risk of errors during installation and improves installation efficiency. At the same time, when maintaining or replacing the counterweight 10, it only needs to be simply removed from the insertion space 345, which makes the operation more convenient.

[0161] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, the counterweight 10 is disposed on the left side and / or right side and / or front side and / or rear side of the vacuum pump module. The bottom wall of the counterweight 10 abuts against the bottom wall of the installation box 3. The bottom wall of the counterweight 10 contacts the bottom wall of the installation box 3, providing a solid support for the counterweight 10 and enhancing the stability of the fixation of the counterweight 10. The counterweight 10 can be installed on the left side, right side, front side, or rear side of the device as needed, flexibly adapting to different design and space layout requirements.

[0162] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, the counterweight 10 includes a first counterweight 104 and a second counterweight 105. The first counterweight 104 and the second counterweight 105 are relatively arranged on the left and right sides or the front and back sides of the air pump module.

[0163] By respectively arranging the first counterweight 104 and the second counterweight 105 on the left and right sides or the front and back sides of the vacuum pump module, the center of gravity of the mounting box 3 is evenly distributed. This symmetrical design ensures that the vibration generated by the vacuum pump assembly 100 during operation can be better absorbed and dispersed, and will not shake or tilt due to the offset of the center of gravity, thereby improving the overall stability.

[0164] In one embodiment of the present application, the counterweight 10 is made of stainless steel. Using stainless steel as the material for the counterweight 10 not only improves corrosion resistance, impact resistance, and vibration reduction, but also increases the service life and operational stability of the device. In other embodiments of the present application, the counterweight 10 may also be made of other materials, such as copper.

[0165] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 19In one embodiment of the present application, the counterweight 10 is in the form of a rectangular block. The rectangular block-shaped counterweight 10 is simple and stable, capable of forming a large contact area with the inner wall or bottom wall of the mounting box 3, providing stable support. The rectangular block-shaped counterweight 10 also has the advantage of being easy to manufacture and process, reducing production costs.

[0166] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 19 In one embodiment of the present application, the first counterweight 104 and the second counterweight 105 have the same shape and weight. The weight of the first counterweight 104 and the second counterweight 105 is greater than or equal to 100g. Preferably, the weight of the first counterweight 104 and the second counterweight 105 is 100g.

[0167] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 In one embodiment of the present application, at least part of the top of the vacuum pump 1 is placed outside the vibration damping member 4. The vacuum pump assembly 100 includes foam 101. The foam 101 at least covers the peripheral wall of the top of the vacuum pump 1 located outside the vibration damping member 4. The foam 101 is a material with high elasticity and flexibility, which can effectively absorb vibration and impact. Covering the peripheral wall of the top of the vacuum pump 1 with foam 101 can further cushion the vibration generated by the operation of the vacuum pump assembly 100 and reduce the transmission of vibration energy. The foam 101 also reduces the friction and wear between the vacuum pump 1 and other components, thereby extending the service life of the vacuum pump 1.

[0168] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 In one embodiment of the present application, the box cover 32 is provided with downwardly protruding limiting ribs 35, which abut against the peripheral surface of the foam 101. By providing the downwardly protruding limiting ribs 35 on the box cover 32 and abutting against the peripheral surface of the foam 101, not only is the wear and displacement of the foam 101 prevented, but the fixation and vibration reduction effect of the foam 101 are also effectively improved.

[0169] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the air pump assembly 100 includes an air pump module and a noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 disposed outside the air pump module. The noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 includes a metal plate 61 and a vibration reduction layer 62. The vibration reduction layer 62 covers at least one side of the metal plate 61.

[0170] Since metal materials have a high density and sound waves are difficult to penetrate, the metal plate 61 has a shielding effect on noise, the vibration-damping layer 62 can absorb high-frequency noise, and the metal plate 61 can reflect low-frequency noise, thereby forming a dual noise suppression mechanism, further enhancing the noise reduction effect. The metal plate 61 can increase the overall weight of the vacuum pump assembly 100 and reduce the vibration of the vacuum pump assembly 100. The presence of the vibration-damping layer 62 can also effectively absorb the vibration generated during the operation of the vacuum pump assembly 100 and reduce the transmission of vibration to the outside, thereby further enhancing the vibration reduction effect. The combination of the metal plate 61 and the vibration-damping layer 62 makes the vibration-damping and noise-reducing assembly have a certain degree of softness while also having a certain degree of rigidity, which can better resist vibration and impact, and can also provide certain support for the vacuum pump module.

[0171] The noise reduction and vibration damping component 6 simplifies the installation process of the equipment through the modular design of the metal plate 61 and the vibration damping layer 62. The metal plate 61 and the vibration damping layer 62 can be installed on the outside of the vacuum pump module at one time, reducing additional installation steps and making subsequent maintenance and replacement more convenient. Maintenance personnel can easily disassemble or reinstall the noise reduction and vibration damping component 6 to improve efficiency.

[0172] The air pump module here may be different from the air pump module described above. The air pump module may refer to a component module including the air pump 1 and other components, or may refer only to the air pump 1. That is, the noise reduction and vibration reduction component 6 may be directly arranged outside the air pump 1 to reduce vibration and noise of the air pump 1, or may be arranged outside the air pump module composed of the air pump 1 and other structures to reduce vibration and noise of the air pump module. For example, the air pump module may include the air pump 1 and the vibration reduction component 4, and the noise reduction and vibration reduction component 6 may be arranged outside the vibration reduction component 4.

[0173] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the air extraction pump module may include an installation box 3 and an air extraction pump 1 disposed within the installation box 3. A noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 is disposed outside the installation box 3. A metal plate 61 is spaced apart from and opposed to the wall of the installation box 3. A vibration reduction layer 62 covers at least the side of the metal plate 61 facing the wall of the installation box 3. The vibration reduction layer 62 is in contact with the wall of the installation box 3. The installation box 3 may be as described above.

[0174] The vibration-damping layer 62 is directly connected to the wall of the mounting box 3, effectively absorbing the vibrations generated during the operation of the vacuum pump 1 and preventing the transmission of this vibration energy to the outside of the mounting box 3. The vibration-damping layer 62 acts as a buffer. Through its elastic properties, it reduces the impact of vibrations on the mounting box 3 and avoids direct friction and wear on the mounting box 3. In addition to its vibration and noise reduction effects, the metal plate 61 also provides an additional physical barrier to protect the mounting box 3 from external impact or physical damage, thereby enhancing the overall vibration reduction, noise reduction, impact resistance and durability of the vacuum pump assembly 100.

[0175] In other embodiments of the present application, the metal plate 61 may also directly abut against the wall of the installation box 3 , and the vibration-damping layer 62 covers the side of the metal plate 61 facing away from the wall of the installation box 3 .

[0176] Reference Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration damping layer 62 includes a first vibration damping layer 621 and a second vibration damping layer 622. The first vibration damping layer 621 covers the side of the metal plate 61 facing the wall of the installation box 3. The second vibration damping layer 622 covers the side of the metal plate 61 facing away from the wall of the installation box 3.

[0177] By covering the first vibration-damping layer 621 on the side of the metal plate 61 facing the wall of the installation box 3, and the second vibration-damping layer 622 on the side of the metal plate 61 away from the wall of the installation box 3, this design achieves multiple vibration and noise reduction effects. The synergistic effect of the two vibration-damping layers 62 and the metal plate 61 significantly reduces the vibration transmission and noise propagation of the vacuum pump 1, and also improves the impact resistance and operational stability of the vacuum pump assembly 100. The first vibration-damping layer 621 contacts the wall of the installation box 3, which can reduce the wear of the wall of the installation box 3. The second vibration-damping layer 622 is arranged on the outside of the metal plate 61, which can reduce the wear of the metal plate 61, slow down the impact of the external environment, effectively reduce the accumulation of mechanical stress, reduce damage caused by vibration or impact, and extend the service life of the vacuum pump assembly 100. The vibration-damping layer 62 directly covers both sides of the metal plate 61, which can simplify the installation steps, avoid errors during the installation process, and ensure the long-term stability of the equipment.

[0178] Reference Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the first vibration damping layer 621 and the second vibration damping layer 622 both extend outside the metal plate 61. The portions of the first vibration damping layer 621 and the second vibration damping layer 622 located outside the metal plate 61 are connected to each other to seal the metal plate 61 within the vibration damping layer 62.

[0179] By extending and interconnecting the first vibration-damping layer 621 and the second vibration-damping layer 622, the metal plate 61 is completely enclosed in the vibration-damping layer 62. This fully enclosed structure not only achieves a firm fixation of the metal plate 61, but also effectively prevents wear and external contact of the metal plate 61, thereby enhancing the durability and safety of the vacuum pump assembly 100, preventing dust, moisture or chemicals in the external environment from directly contacting the metal plate 61, avoiding oxidation or corrosion of the metal plate 61, and reducing the risk of electric shock, other structural damage or worker injury due to external exposure of the metal plate 61.

[0180] In other embodiments of the present application, the vibration-damping layer 62 may also extend to be flush with the edge of the metal plate 61 , with the edge sidewall of the metal plate 61 exposed. The edge of the vibration-damping layer 62 may also be inside the edge of the metal plate 61 .

[0181] Reference Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the metal plate 61 is greater than or equal to 4 mm. The thickness of the first vibration-damping layer 621 and the second vibration-damping layer 622 are both greater than twice the thickness of the metal plate 61. The thicker metal plate 61 can reflect most of the sound through its density and hardness, and the thicker metal plate 61 is also heavier, thereby reducing the noise and vibration generated when the vacuum pump 1 is running. The thickness of the first vibration-damping layer 621 and the second vibration-damping layer 622 are both greater than twice the thickness of the metal plate 61. The thick vibration-damping layer 62 can effectively absorb noise and vibration energy, while further blocking the noise and vibration reflected by the metal plate 61, thereby achieving better noise reduction and vibration reduction effects. By adopting a metal plate 61 and a vibration-damping layer 62 with a larger thickness, better cushioning and protection can be provided to prevent the vacuum pump assembly 100 from being damaged by external impact or vibration.

[0182] Reference Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the vibration-damping layer 62 is bonded to the wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration-damping layer 62 is bonded to the metal plate 61. The portions of the first vibration-damping layer 621 and the second vibration-damping layer 622 located outside the metal plate 61 are bonded to each other. By bonding the vibration-damping layer 62 to the wall of the installation box 3 and the metal plate 61, a firm connection between the vibration-damping layer 62 and the various components is ensured, and the noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 is prevented from being displaced or loosened due to vibration or impact, ensuring that the noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 always plays a role in vibration reduction and noise reduction in the designed position, ensuring that the noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 maintains its position stable during long-term use, and improving the overall structural stability of the equipment. The vibration-damping layer 62, the metal plate 61 and the wall of the installation box 3 are firmly connected together by bonding, which simplifies the structural design of the equipment, does not require additional fasteners or complex mechanical connections, reduces assembly steps, and improves the simplicity and efficiency of installation.

[0183] Reference Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the metal plate 61 is a stainless steel plate. The vibration-damping layer 62 is IXPE foam 101, and the vibration-damping layer 62 has an interference fit with the wall of the installation box 3. The interference fit between the vibration-damping layer 62 and the wall of the installation box 3 is not less than 3 mm. The IXPE foam 101 has excellent vibration-damping performance, and its flexible structure can absorb and buffer the vibration and impact generated by the vacuum pump assembly 100 during operation. Through the interference fit with the wall of the installation box 3, the vibration-damping layer 62 can maintain continuous close contact, further enhancing the vibration energy absorption effect of the vibration-damping layer 62, and effectively reducing the transmission of vibration to the outside. As a strong and durable material, the stainless steel plate has excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and oxidation resistance, and also has good mechanical strength. The durability of the IXPE foam 101 is also very high, with good anti-aging, moisture resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, which can effectively ensure that the equipment can still operate stably in a humid, dusty or chemically exposed environment.

[0184] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 20 In one embodiment of the present application, the noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes an upper noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 63. The metal plate 61 of the upper noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 63 is spaced apart from the upper wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the upper noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 63 is in contact with the upper wall of the installation box 3. The noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes a noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 64. The metal plate 61 of the noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 64 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 64 is in contact with the bottom wall of the installation box 3. The noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes a front noise reduction and vibration damping assembly. The metal plate 61 of the front noise reduction and vibration damping assembly is spaced apart from the front wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the front noise reduction and vibration damping assembly is in contact with the front wall of the installation box 3.

[0185] The noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes a rear noise reduction and vibration damping assembly. The metal plate 61 of the rear noise reduction and vibration damping assembly is spaced apart from the rear wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the rear noise reduction and vibration damping assembly is in contact with the rear wall of the installation box 3. The noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes a left noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 65. The metal plate 61 of the left noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 65 is spaced apart from the left wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the left noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 65 is in contact with the left wall of the installation box 3. The noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 6 includes a right noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 66. The metal plate 61 of the right noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 66 is spaced apart from the right wall of the installation box 3, and the vibration damping layer 62 of the right noise reduction and vibration damping assembly 66 is in contact with the right wall of the installation box 3.

[0186] By placing noise-reduction and vibration-damping assemblies 6 in six directions (top, bottom, front, back, left, and right) of the mounting box 3, comprehensive vibration-damping protection and sound insulation are achieved. Metal plates 61 in each direction maintain a distance from the wall of the mounting box 3 and contact the wall through the vibration-damping layer 62, ensuring the vibration-damping performance, impact resistance, and durability of the noise-reduction and vibration-damping assemblies 6. This design significantly reduces mechanical wear on the mounting box 3, extends the service life of the vacuum pump assembly 100, and improves its protection in complex environments.

[0187] Reference Figure 4 、 Figure 20 、 Figure 21In one embodiment of the present application, the storage chamber 1002 includes a cold storage chamber 1004. The vacuum pump assembly 100 is arranged in the cold storage chamber 1004. By arranging the vacuum pump assembly 100 in the cold storage chamber 1004, the inner liner, the insulation layer and the door body 1003 of the cold storage chamber 1004 can be used to isolate the noise and vibration of the vacuum pump assembly 100 from being transmitted outward, thereby avoiding affecting the user's life and improving the user's experience. The target vacuum space of the vacuum pump assembly 100 can be the cold storage chamber 1004, or it can be a local space in the cold storage chamber 1004. The vacuum pump assembly 100 is arranged in the cold storage chamber 1004, and the target vacuum space is also in the cold storage chamber 1004, which can facilitate the connection between the vacuum pump assembly 100 and the target vacuum space and simplify the connection path.

[0188] Reference Figure 4 、 Figure 20 、 Figure 21 In one embodiment of the present application, refrigeration equipment 1000 includes a cylindrical body 1005 disposed within a refrigerating chamber 1004. The cylindrical body 1005 has an open front end, forming a front opening. Refrigeration equipment 1000 includes a retractable drawer 1006 disposed within the cylindrical body 1005. The vacuum pump assembly 100 is disposed between the rear wall of the cylindrical body 1005 and the rear wall of the refrigerating chamber 1004. The metal plate 61 is spaced apart from and opposed to the wall of the cylindrical body 1005 or the wall of the refrigerating chamber 1004. The vibration-damping layer 62 is in contact with the wall of the cylindrical body 1005 or the wall of the refrigerating chamber 1004.

[0189] The wall of the cylinder 1005 and the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004 enclose an installation space for the vacuum pump assembly 100. The vibration-damping layer 62 can be bonded to the wall of the cylinder 1005 or the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004. The first vibration-damping layer 621 is located between the metal plate 61 and the wall of the installation box 3, and the second vibration-damping layer 622 is located between the metal plate 61 and the wall of the cylinder 1005 or the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004. The internal space of the cylinder 1005 is the target air extraction space of the vacuum pump assembly 100. By bonding the vibration-damping layer 62 to the wall of the cylinder 1005 or the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004, the installation process is simplified, and the stable connection between the noise reduction and vibration reduction assembly 6 and the cylinder 1005 and the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004 is ensured. No additional fixing device is required, which reduces the complex assembly steps while ensuring the firmness of the equipment installation and the vibration reduction effect.

[0190] The vibration-damping layer 62 is arranged between the metal plate 61 and the wall of the cylinder 1005 or the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004, which can effectively absorb and buffer the vibration generated by the vacuum pump assembly 100 during operation, prevent the vibration from being transmitted to the cylinder 1005 and the wall of the cold storage chamber 1004, and prevent mechanical friction or collision between the vacuum pump assembly 100 and the cylinder 1005 or other components of the cold storage chamber 1004, thereby reducing the impact of vibration on the internal environment of the refrigeration equipment 1000 and the cold storage chamber 1004, reducing the noise interference of the equipment, and improving the user experience.

[0191] The vacuum pump assembly 100 is arranged between the rear wall of the cylinder 1005 and the rear wall of the refrigeration chamber 1004. By optimizing the space design, the idle space in the refrigeration chamber 1004 is effectively utilized. It not only does not occupy the effective storage space of the refrigeration chamber 1004, but also can hide the mechanical parts of the equipment, thereby improving the structural compactness of the overall space. Moreover, the vacuum pump assembly 100 is arranged at the rear side of the refrigeration chamber 1004, far away from the refrigeration door, which extends the propagation path of noise and vibration and reduces outward noise interference.

[0192] The space inside the first column 243 and the barrel 1005 can be provided with a connecting pipe, and an oxygen permeable membrane can be provided in the connecting pipe so that the air pump 1 can extract the oxygen in the barrel 1005, so that a low oxygen environment is formed in the barrel 1005 to extend the storage time of the food in the barrel 1005. The oxygen permeable membrane is a special membrane material that allows oxygen to pass through, which restricts the passage of other gases. The oxygen permeable membrane can selectively control the inflow or outflow of oxygen, helping to maintain the oxygen concentration in the barrel 1005 within a predetermined range. The oxygen inside the barrel 1005 is extracted by the air pump 1 to form a low oxygen environment, which can significantly extend the shelf life of foods such as fruits, vegetables, and meat, and slow down oxidation reactions and microbial reproduction.

[0193] In summary, the vacuum pump assembly 100, the manufacturing method of the vacuum pump assembly 100, and the refrigeration device 1000 of the present application can solve the problem that the existing vacuum pump 1 design generates vibration and noise during operation, which affects the user experience. The technical solution of the present application can reduce the vibration and noise of the vacuum pump assembly 100, thereby improving the user experience.
