Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clamping technology, and in particular to a clamping device for an air conditioning heat exchanger tube. Background Technology
[0002] A water-cooled radiator has an inlet and an outlet, and multiple water channels inside. This allows it to fully utilize the advantages of water cooling and remove more heat. This is the basic principle of a water-cooled radiator. From the perspective of installation methods, water cooling can be divided into two types: internal and external. Internal water cooling requires the use of water cooling pipes in conjunction with other water cooling devices to achieve heat dissipation. During the processing of the water cooling pipes, a reaming device is generally needed to enlarge one end of the pipe for easier installation. Currently, the clamps are in a fixed position. When the length of the radiator pipe is different, the vertical position of the clamps needs to be adjusted. After adjusting the clamp position, it also needs to be calibrated to ensure that the diameter after flaring or shrinking meets the expectations, making operation inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problems of the prior art and provide a clamp that can hold air conditioning heat exchange tubes securely and with a wide range of applications.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following solution:
[0005] A clamp for an air conditioning heat exchanger tube includes: a mounting base that can be connected to an external processing device; a first clamping component on the mounting base; a transfer assembly on the mounting base; a second clamping component on the transfer assembly; the second clamping component being able to clamp the middle part of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube when in close contact with the first clamping component; the clamp for the air conditioning heat exchanger tube further includes a connecting plate that can be connected to the external processing device; a base connected to the connecting plate; a receiving groove for accommodating the bottom end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube; and a pushing component for pushing the tube up and down within the base.
[0006] The pusher component includes a movable block movably connected to the receiving groove. The base is also provided with a pusher block that can slide laterally relative to the base, thereby causing the movable block to slide vertically relative to the receiving groove. The connecting plate is also provided with a drive component that can drive the pusher block to slide relative to the base.
[0007] The push block is connected to a horizontal bar that extends laterally into the movable block, and the movable block is provided with an inclined groove that allows the horizontal bar to move within it.
[0008] The inclined slide groove is provided with a first inclined sliding surface and a second inclined sliding surface that can push the crossbar.
[0009] The connecting plate is provided with two connecting seats spaced apart front and back, and the base is provided between the two connecting seats. The two connecting seats can form a positioning space to fix the base. The connecting seats are provided with a first top abutment surface, and the outer periphery of the base is provided with a second top abutment surface that can abut against the first top abutment surface.
[0010] The push block is T-shaped and includes a first connecting section arranged laterally. The first connecting section has a protrusion that can protrude downward in the middle. The two connecting seats are provided with receiving grooves that can accommodate the first connecting section and guide its movement.
[0011] The base is also connected to a connecting sleeve, which is snapped into the receiving groove. The connecting sleeve is provided with a positioning groove that can position the bottom of the air conditioning heat exchange tube.
[0012] The connecting sleeve is provided with multiple vertically arranged guide grooves, the upper side of the guide grooves has an opening, and the periphery of the movable block is provided with multiple protruding connecting parts, which are snapped and slidably connected in the guide grooves.
[0013] The connecting plate is provided with multiple positioning seats, and the connecting plate can connect the positioning seats to external devices through a locking component.
[0014] The connecting plate is provided with a screw assembly that can be connected to the mounting base, and the mounting base is provided with a through hole for the screw assembly to pass through.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model has the following advantages: When expanding or shrinking the top of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube, the bottom end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube is aligned with the receiving groove and inserted into the receiving groove. One side of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube is pressed against the first clamping component. The transfer component is activated, which drives the second clamping component to move, so that the second clamping component and the first clamping component move closer and press against each other. At this time, the second clamping component and the first clamping component cooperate to clamp the air conditioning heat exchanger tube. The external equipment can expand or shrink the top end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube. Due to the cooperation of the second clamping component, the first clamping component and the base, the air conditioning heat exchanger tube can be clamped firmly. The vibration generated when the external equipment expands or shrinks the top end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube will not cause the air conditioning heat exchanger tube to shift, ensuring processing accuracy. At the same time, in order to facilitate the positioning of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube, a pushing component is also provided. The pushing component is used to position and set the base, which facilitates the processing of air conditioning heat exchanger tubes of different heights by external equipment, making it more applicable and easier to use.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:
[0024] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a clamp for an air conditioning heat exchanger tube includes: a mounting base 1 that can be connected to an external processing device; a first clamping component 2 on the mounting base 1; a transfer assembly 3 on the mounting base 1; a second clamping component 4 on the transfer assembly 3; the second clamping component 4 being able to clamp the middle part of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube when in close contact with the first clamping component 2; the clamp for the air conditioning heat exchanger tube also includes a connecting plate 5 that can be connected to an external processing device; a base 6 connected to the connecting plate 5; a receiving groove 61 in the base 6 that can accommodate the bottom end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube; and a pushing component 7 in the base 6 that can push the tube up and down.
[0026] When expanding or shrinking the top of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube, align the bottom end of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube with the receiving groove 61 and insert it into the receiving groove 61. One side of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube should be pressed against the first clamping component 2. Activate the transfer component 3, which will drive the second clamping component 4 to move, causing the second clamping component 4 and the first clamping component 2 to move closer and press against each other. At this time, the second clamping component 4 and the first clamping component 2 can clamp the air conditioning heat exchanger tube. External equipment can expand or shrink the top of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube. Due to the cooperation of the second clamping component 4, the first clamping component 2, and the base 6, the air conditioning heat exchanger tube can be clamped firmly. The vibration generated when the external equipment expands or shrinks the top of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube will not cause displacement of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube, ensuring processing accuracy. At the same time, in order to facilitate the positioning of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube, a pushing component 7 is also provided. The pushing component 7 is used to position and set the base 6, which facilitates the processing of air conditioning heat exchanger tubes of different heights by external equipment, making it more applicable and easier to use.
[0027] The pusher component 7 includes a movable block 71 movably connected within the receiving groove 61. The base 6 also includes a pusher block 72 that can slide laterally relative to the base 6, allowing the movable block 71 to slide vertically relative to the receiving groove 61. The connecting plate 5 is further equipped with a driving component 73 that can drive the pusher block 72 to slide relative to the base 6. The driving component 73 is a cylinder, with its output shaft connected to the pusher block 72. When the pusher block 72 moves laterally relative to the base 6, it pushes the movable block 71 to slide vertically relative to the base 6, thereby pushing the air conditioning heat exchanger tube to position its bottom. After processing is complete, the cylinder is activated, pushing out a portion of the air conditioning heat exchanger tube for easy handling and use.
[0028] The push block 72 is connected to a horizontal bar 74 that extends laterally into the movable block 71. The movable block 71 is provided with an inclined sliding groove 711 that allows the horizontal bar 74 to move within it. The cooperation of the horizontal bar 74 and the inclined sliding groove 711 allows the movable block 71 to slide vertically relative to the base 6 when the push block 72 moves laterally relative to the base 6. This ingenious design makes the structure more compact and reduces the space occupied.
[0029] The inclined slide groove 711 is provided with a first inclined slide surface 7111 and a second inclined slide surface 7112 that can push the crossbar 74. The first inclined slide surface 7111 and the second inclined slide surface 7112 facilitate the sliding of the crossbar 74, thereby allowing the movable block 71 to slide vertically.
[0030] The connecting plate 5 has two connecting seats 8 spaced apart front to back. The base 6 is positioned between the two connecting seats 8, forming a positioning space 800 for fixing the base 6. Each connecting seat 8 has a first abutting surface 81, and the outer periphery of the base 6 has a second abutting surface 63 that abuts against the first abutting surface 81. The first abutting surface 81 and the second abutting surface 63 are vertical surfaces, which facilitates the positioning of the base 6 against the two connecting seats 8, and makes it easy to snap on and lock onto the connecting plate 5 with screws. The positioning space 800 facilitates positioning and installation.
[0031] The push block 72 is T-shaped and includes a first connecting segment 721 arranged laterally. The first connecting segment 721 has a downwardly protruding portion 722 in its middle. The two connecting seats 8 are provided with receiving grooves 61 that accommodate and guide the movement of the first connecting segment 721. The receiving grooves 61 not only guide the sliding of the first connecting segment 721 but also position it.
[0032] The base 6 is also connected to a connecting sleeve 62, which is snapped into the receiving groove 61. The connecting sleeve 62 has a positioning groove 621 that can position the bottom of the air conditioning heat exchange tube. The size of the connecting sleeve 62 can be changed to accommodate air conditioning heat exchange tubes of different diameters, thus expanding its applicability.
[0033] The connecting sleeve 62 is provided with multiple vertically arranged guide grooves 622, each guide groove 622 having an opening 623 on its upper side. The movable block 71 has multiple protruding connecting parts 712 on its periphery, which engage and slide within the guide grooves 622. The connecting parts 712 and the guide grooves 622 facilitate the positioning and connection of the movable block 71 and the connecting sleeve 62, allowing the user to quickly connect the movable block 71 and the connecting sleeve 62, making it more convenient to use.
[0034] The connecting plate 5 is provided with multiple positioning seats 91, and the connecting plate 5 can connect the positioning seats 91 to external devices through a locking component. The positioning seats 91 facilitate the positioning and connection of the connecting plate 5 to the external devices, making installation convenient.
[0035] The connecting plate 5 is provided with a screw assembly 92 that can be connected to the mounting base 1, and the mounting base 1 is provided with a through hole 11 for the screw assembly 92 to pass through. The screw assembly 92 can cooperate with the mounting base 1 to facilitate the positioning of the base 6 and the first clamping component 2.
[0036] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
