Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle air conditioning technology, and in particular to a vehicle air conditioner and vehicle with good shock absorption effect. Background Technology
[0002] In modern vehicles, in-vehicle air conditioners have become an indispensable component, providing passengers with a comfortable driving environment. However, existing in-vehicle air conditioners have significant shortcomings in terms of shock resistance. Especially during vehicle operation, due to uneven road surfaces and vehicle vibrations, the compressor and delivery pipelines are often subjected to considerable impact and vibration.
[0003] As the core component of a vehicle air conditioner, the compressor's stability is crucial to the overall performance of the air conditioner. However, in existing vehicle air conditioners, the compressor is usually simply fixed to the casing without effective vibration damping measures. This makes the compressor susceptible to vibration during vehicle operation, leading to noise and wear, and in severe cases, even malfunction.
[0004] Furthermore, the stability of the refrigerant delivery pipeline, as a crucial channel connecting components such as the compressor, condenser, and evaporator, is equally important. During refrigerant delivery, the pipeline experiences vibrations due to liquid flow and pressure changes. In existing automotive air conditioners, these vibrations are often not effectively suppressed, leading to friction and collisions between the pipeline and the casing or other components, resulting in noise and damage.
[0005] Therefore, to improve the stability and durability of vehicle air conditioners, it is necessary to upgrade existing systems to enhance their shock resistance. In particular, effective vibration damping measures are needed in the installation and securing of the compressor and piping to reduce the impact of vibration and shock on the air conditioner's performance. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the existing technical problems, this utility model provides a vehicle air conditioner with good shock absorption. By setting shock-absorbing blocks and shock-absorbing feet, it effectively reduces the vibration generated in the refrigerant delivery pipeline during the refrigerant delivery process and provides stable support for the compressor, greatly reducing the vibration and noise of the compressor during vehicle operation.
[0007] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] This utility model provides a vehicle air conditioner with good shock absorption, including a housing, a compressor, and a delivery pipeline, and also includes a shock absorption assembly. The shock absorption assembly includes: at least one shock absorption block, which is sleeved on the delivery pipeline and connected to the housing by means of a connector to stably support the delivery pipeline; and multiple shock absorption feet, which are distributed between the bottom of the compressor and the housing to stably support the compressor.
[0009] The above technical solution can be further improved as follows:
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a support frame, to which the compressor is fixed, and the plurality of shock-absorbing feet are distributed around the bottom of the support frame.
[0011] Furthermore, four shock-absorbing feet are provided, and a lower support pad is provided on the housing directly opposite the shock-absorbing feet.
[0012] Furthermore, the shock-absorbing support foot is provided with a first bolt hole, and the lower support pad is provided with a corresponding second bolt hole; it also includes a fixing screw, which passes through the second bolt hole and the first bolt hole in sequence from the bottom of the housing and is connected to the support frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the shock absorber has a through hole suitable for connecting the delivery pipeline, and a side opening communicating with the through hole, the side opening extending along the axial direction of the shock absorber.
[0014] Furthermore, the connector can be any one of cable ties, pipe clamps, or buckles.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a condenser and an evaporator, which are arranged sequentially within the casing and interconnected through the delivery pipeline.
[0016] Furthermore, the housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing, which together define a receiving space in which the condenser, compressor, and evaporator are received.
[0017] Furthermore, the lower shell has a first mounting portion and a second mounting portion disposed opposite to the first mounting portion, wherein the first mounting portion is adapted to mount the condenser and the compressor, and the second mounting portion is adapted to mount the evaporator.
[0018] This utility model also provides a vehicle, including a vehicle body and an air conditioner, wherein the air conditioner is any of the vehicle air conditioners described above.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following technical effects:
[0020] This utility model provides a vehicle air conditioner with good shock absorption effect, including a shock absorption component, which includes a shock absorption block and multiple shock absorption feet. By fitting the shock absorption block onto the delivery pipeline and using connectors to firmly connect it to the housing, the vibration generated in the delivery pipeline during refrigerant delivery is effectively reduced. At the same time, the distribution of multiple shock absorption feet between the bottom of the compressor and the housing provides stable support for the compressor, greatly reducing the vibration and noise of the compressor during vehicle operation.
[0021] Secondly, this utility model also includes a support frame to which the compressor is fixedly connected, further enhancing the stability of the internal structure of the air conditioner. The design of the shock-absorbing feet and the lower support pad makes the compressor more stable during installation, reducing the risk of loosening and damage caused by vibration.

[0038] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 10As shown, this utility model provides a vehicle air conditioner with good shock absorption, including a housing 10 and a refrigeration component. The refrigeration component is installed inside the housing 10. Specifically, the housing 10 has a first end and a second end spaced apart along its length. The refrigeration component is disposed between the first end and the second end. The refrigeration component includes an external fan 4, a condenser 5, a compressor 6, an evaporator 7, and an internal fan 8 arranged sequentially. The external fan 4 is disposed at the first end, and the internal fan 8 is disposed at the second end. The condenser 5, the compressor 6, and the evaporator 7 are connected by a delivery pipe 61 to realize the flow of refrigerant, thereby providing cold or hot air to the vehicle body. The system provides both cooling and heating functions. Furthermore, it includes a shock-absorbing assembly 130, comprising at least one shock-absorbing block 131 fitted onto the delivery pipe 61. The shock-absorbing block 131 is connected to the housing 10 via a connector to stably support the delivery pipe 61. It also includes multiple shock-absorbing feet 132 distributed between the bottom of the compressor 6 and the housing 10 to smoothly support the compressor 6. By providing the shock-absorbing assembly 130, the compressor 6 and the delivery pipe 61 can be supported and damped, ensuring that the compressor 6 and the delivery pipe can still operate normally in a high-vibration environment, thus improving the service life of the vehicle air conditioner 100.
[0040] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, a support frame 110 is also included. The support frame 110 extends along the width direction of the housing 10 and is disposed inside the housing 10. The compressor 6 is fixed on the support frame 110 along the width direction, and the condenser 5 is fixed on the side wall of the support frame 110, so as to realize the effective integration and stable fixation of the compressor 6 and the condenser 5.
[0041] like Figure 8 As shown, the support frame 110 includes a horizontal portion 111 and a vertical portion 112. The compressor 6 is horizontally mounted on the horizontal portion 111, and the condenser 5 is horizontally connected to the vertical portion 112. The support frame 110 connects the compressor 6 and the condenser 5 together, improving equipment stability. An anti-vibration bracket is fixed to the bottom of the compressor 6 and attached to the horizontal portion 111, further improving the anti-vibration stability of the compressor 6 installation. Furthermore, side fixing blocks 101 are respectively configured on both sides of the support frame 110. The side fixing blocks 101 are suitable for fixing the anti-vibration bracket and the support frame 110. By setting side fixing blocks 101 on both sides of the support frame 110, the anti-vibration bracket can be further connected to the support frame 110, thereby improving the stability of the compressor 6 installation. It should be noted that the structure and size of the side fixing blocks 101 on both sides can be adjusted adaptively, making them flexible and convenient to use.
[0042] In this embodiment, the condenser 5 has connecting ears 51 on both sides that mate with the vertical part 112. Each connecting ear 51 has bolt holes for bolts to pass through. The condenser 5 is fixed to the support frame 110 using bolts, making the connection simple and convenient. This further connects and fixes the condenser 5 and compressor 6 together. Furthermore, a front baffle 2 is included, connected to the condenser 5, thereby fixing the front baffle 2, condenser 5, and compressor 6 together, improving the stability of the air conditioner. Furthermore, a cavity is defined between the front baffle 2 and the condenser 5 to accommodate the outdoor fan 4. The outdoor fan 4 is adapted to dissipate the heat generated by the condenser 5. A ventilation hole communicating with the outdoor fan 4 is provided on the front side of the front baffle 2, ensuring the condenser 5's heat dissipation efficiency for hot air. Figure 3 As shown, the side wall of the first end of the housing 10 is provided with a first air outlet 21 that communicates with the external fan 4. There is an inclined transition part 123 between the first mounting part 121 and the second mounting part 122. A side air outlet 124 that communicates with the external fan 4 is provided on the side wall of the transition part 123. A ventilation and heat exchange channel is formed between the side air outlet 124 and the first air outlet 21, which improves the ventilation efficiency between the area around the condenser 5 and the outside.
[0043] In this embodiment, four shock-absorbing feet 132 are provided, and a lower support pad 133 is provided on the housing 10 opposite to the shock-absorbing feet 132. A first bolt hole is provided through the shock-absorbing feet 132, and a second bolt hole is provided correspondingly on the lower support pad 133. It also includes a fixing screw, which passes through the second bolt hole and the first bolt hole from the bottom of the housing 10 and is connected to the support frame 110, thereby reducing the vibration generated by the compressor 6 when it is working.
[0044] like Figure 9 As shown, the shock absorber 131 is designed to be fitted onto the conveying pipeline 61 and securely connected to the housing 10 via a connector to provide stable support for the conveying pipeline 61. It should also be noted that multiple shock absorbers 131 can be provided, such as two, three, or four, and their arrangement can be tailored to the specific shock absorption requirements of the conveying pipeline 61. Specifically, as... Figure 10 As shown, the shock absorber 131 has a through hole suitable for fitting the conveying pipeline 61, and a side opening communicating with the through hole. The side opening extends along the axial direction of the shock absorber 131, making it convenient to fit the shock absorber 131 onto the conveying pipeline 61. Preferably, the connector is configured as any one of cable tie, pipe clamp, or buckle to flexibly adapt to different installation requirements.
[0045] In this embodiment, the housing 10 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12, which together define a receiving space. The cooling assembly is received within this receiving space, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, an air vent is provided on the upper shell 11 corresponding to the first air vent 21 of the front baffle 2; the lower shell 12 is provided with a first mounting part 121 and a second mounting part 122 opposite to the first mounting part 121, wherein the first mounting part 121 is suitable for mounting the external fan 4, condenser 5 and compressor 6, and the second mounting part 122 is suitable for mounting the evaporator 7 and internal fan 8. In the vehicle air conditioner 100, the compressor 6 is heavier than the condenser 5, evaporator 7, etc., therefore, the center of gravity of the traditional vehicle air conditioner 100 will shift, affecting the overall balance and stability of the vehicle air conditioner 100. In this embodiment, to make the vehicle air conditioner 100 more balanced, the compressor 6 is positioned at one-third to one-half of the distance from the first end of the casing 10, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the distance D between the compressor 6 and the first end, and the overall length L of the casing 10, satisfy the relationship between D and L: D = (1 / 3 - 1 / 2)L. Preferably, the external fan 4, compressor 6, and condenser 5 are located near the first end, and the evaporator 7 and internal fan 8 are located near the second end. Furthermore, the casing 10 is optimized so that the center of gravity of the vehicle air conditioner 100 coincides with the axis of its center, thereby improving the overall balance of the vehicle air conditioner 100.
[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, the first mounting portion 121 and the second mounting portion 122 are arranged along the length direction of the housing 10. The first mounting portion 121 defines a first mounting groove to support the installation of the external fan 4, condenser 5 and compressor 6. The second mounting portion 122 defines a second mounting groove to support the installation of the evaporator and internal fan 8, so that the installation positions of the external fan 4, condenser 5, compressor 6, evaporator and internal fan 8 are more reasonable. Furthermore, the width of the first mounting portion 121 is greater than the width of the second mounting portion 122, and the length of the first mounting portion 121 is less than the length of the second mounting portion 122. By optimizing the design of the housing 10, the overall layout of the vehicle air conditioner 100 is more integrated.
[0047] The internal fan 8 is adapted to deliver the cold air generated by the evaporator 7 into the vehicle interior space, thereby quickly cooling the interior temperature. A second air vent 125 and a third air vent 126 are configured at the bottom of the housing 10. The second air vent 125 is generally positioned in the middle area of the housing 10, thereby further optimizing the gravity distribution of the housing 10. The evaporator 7 and the internal fan 8 are sequentially arranged between the second air vent 125 and the third air vent 126. The second air vent 125 is adapted to draw in hot air from the vehicle interior, and the third air vent 126 is adapted to blow cold air into the vehicle interior for heat exchange. The evaporator 7 is located near the second air vent 125, so that when hot air from inside the vehicle passes through the second air vent 125, it can quickly come into contact with the surface of the evaporator 7, and quickly exchange heat to become cold air. Then, it is sent into the vehicle through the third air vent 126 via the internal fan 8, so that the air inside the vehicle circulates between the vehicle air vent 100 and the vehicle air conditioner 100, thereby quickly cooling the air. The second air vent 125 and the third air vent 126 are formed in the second mounting part 122, which can further reduce the weight of the housing 10 and optimize the gravity distribution, thereby improving the overall balance of the vehicle air conditioner 100.
[0048] It should be noted that both the external fan 4 and the internal fan 8 are cross-flow fans. Preferably, both the external fan 4 and the internal fan 8 are installed horizontally inside the casing 10, which can increase the ventilation area and thus further improve the ventilation efficiency.
[0049] The vehicle air conditioner 100 in this embodiment also includes an electronic control module 9, which is generally disposed in the middle region of the housing 10 to balance the center of gravity of the vehicle air conditioner 100. Figure 5 As shown, the electronic control module 9 is arranged in the flow path between the second air vent 125 and the third air vent 126, and can also utilize the cold air generated by the evaporator 7 for cooling, ensuring the operating temperature of the electronic control module 9. Specifically, the electronic control module 9 includes commonly used control components such as an electronic control box and control circuits. These are all commonly used electrical components in the vehicle air conditioner 100 and belong to the prior art.
[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a protective cover 3 is detachably connected to the housing 10. The protective cover 3 covers the outside of the electronic control module 9, the evaporator 7 and the internal fan 8, and can effectively gather the cold air generated by the evaporator 7 in the cavity between the protective cover 3 and the housing 10, reduce heat loss and improve the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner. Furthermore, the volume of the protective cover 3 is larger than the volume of the front baffle 2. By setting the volumes of the front baffle 2 and the protective cover 3, the weight of the first and second ends of the housing 10 can be better maintained to ensure the balance of the vehicle air conditioner 100.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, this embodiment also provides a vehicle, including a vehicle body and an air conditioner. The air conditioner is the aforementioned vehicle air conditioner 100. The vehicle air conditioner 100 of this embodiment has the advantages of high integration, reasonable size layout, and high balance. By adopting the aforementioned vehicle air conditioner 100 with good shock absorption effect, the vibration and noise of the air conditioner during vehicle operation are reduced, which not only extends the service life of the air conditioner but also significantly improves the ride comfort of the vehicle. This is of great significance for improving the overall quality and market competitiveness of the vehicle.
[0052] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
