Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner outdoor unit protection technology, specifically to an external protection device for an air conditioner outdoor unit. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, air conditioners are an essential household appliance. Split-type air conditioners are favored by users for their advantages such as low indoor noise and aesthetically pleasing indoor unit design. However, after years of use and exposure to wind and sun, the outdoor unit mounting bracket of split-type air conditioners can rust and break in strong winds, causing the outdoor unit to fall from a height and injure pedestrians or damage property. Moreover, air conditioners are not used for a portion of the year.

[0003] Existing air conditioner outdoor units are usually placed outdoors without any protection. After being exposed to wind, sun and rain, the outdoor units of air conditioners are severely corroded. In particular, in recent years, severe air pollution has caused serious contamination of the outdoor units with dust and willow catkins, which affects the heat exchange inside the outdoor unit and thus affects the cooling / heating effect. Therefore, a few existing air conditioner outdoor units have external protective structures.

[0004] However, the existing protective structure on the outside of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is inconvenient to install and cannot achieve quick positioning. Personnel often have to waste a lot of time on blind hole positioning. In addition, the existing protective structure on the outside of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner has poor tensile strength.

[0005] To address this issue, we designed an external protective device for the outdoor unit of an air conditioner. Utility Model Content
