[0019] To make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the present application is further described below with reference to the drawings.
[0020] First of all, it needs to be stated that the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described, and the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than a limitation of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0022] It should be noted that in the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixing" and the like should be broadly understood, for example, "fixing" can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integral: can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection; can be direct connection, or indirect connection through an intermediate medium, can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise explicitly limited. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0023] Reference Figs. 1-3 The present application provides a bearing mounting structure for an air conditioner fan and an air conditioner.
[0024] As Figs. 1-3As shown, the bearing mounting structure for the air conditioner fan comprises a fan drive shaft 1, a bearing 2, a shaft sleeve 4 and a shell 5. The bearing 2 has a through-hole 3 in the center of the bearing 2, which penetrates the left plane of the bearing 2 and the right plane of the bearing 2. The first end of the fan drive shaft 1 is arranged in the through-hole 3 through the left plane of the bearing 2. The fan shaft 9 rotates in the through-hole 3. The shaft sleeve 4 is arranged on the side of the bearing 2. The shell 5 is arranged outside the shaft sleeve 4 to fix the shaft sleeve 4 and the bearing 2. An oil blocking piece is arranged on the inner wall of the shaft sleeve 4 on the right plane side of the bearing 2. The oil blocking piece is a ring-shaped protrusion 6 extending from the inner wall of the shaft sleeve 4 to the central axis of the fan drive shaft 1. The ring-shaped protrusion 6 forms a central hole, and the fan drive shaft 1 is arranged in the central hole. The fan drive shaft 1 is in clearance fit with the central hole.
[0025] As shown in the drawings, Fig. 2 For the bearing 2, a conventional ball bearing in the art can be selected, which includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The fan drive shaft 1 is fixed relative to the inner ring, and the inner ring and the outer ring move relative to each other. Alternatively, a bearing 2 without an inner ring and an outer ring can be selected. The bearing 2 is a whole. The bearing 2 has a through-hole 3 in the center of the bearing 2, which penetrates the left plane of the bearing 2 and the right plane of the bearing 2. The fan drive shaft 1 rotates in the through-hole 3.
[0026] For the clearance fit between the fan drive shaft 1 and the central hole, the clearance is preferably slightly larger than 0.1 mm, between 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm, and of course can be larger than 0.2 mm, still having a certain oil blocking effect, but the effect is slightly worse.
[0027] This design not only achieves good blocking of lubricating oil, reduces the overflow of lubricating oil from the side of the bearing 2 away from the fan 9 during the rotation of the fan drive shaft 1 as much as possible, but also ensures that the fan drive shaft 1 can rotate smoothly without being hindered. Therefore, the arrangement of the oil blocking piece significantly reduces the loss of lubricating oil, ensures sufficient lubrication between the fan drive shaft 1 and the inner wall of the bearing 2, effectively eliminates the harsh noise caused by insufficient lubrication, improves the user's experience and prolongs the service life of the air conditioner.
[0028] As shown in the drawings, Fig. 1 In the embodiment of the present scheme, the right surface of the ring-shaped protrusion 6 and the inner wall of the shaft sleeve 4 form a cavity 7, and the first end of the fan drive shaft 1 is located in the cavity 7. The cavity 7 can effectively collect the possible overflow of lubricating oil. This design not only prevents the leakage of lubricating oil to other parts inside the air conditioner, but also protects the cleanliness of the internal environment.
[0029] Further, the shaft sleeve 4 and the ring-shaped protrusion 6 are made of rubber material. Rubber material has good damping effect. In addition, by selecting rubber material, even if the ring-shaped protrusion 6 contacts the fan drive shaft 1 due to processing error, no abnormal sound will be generated due to the elastic damping effect of the rubber material. In addition to selecting rubber material, nylon or other composite materials can also be selected.
[0030] The utility model also provides a kind of air conditioner, including the bearing mounting structure for air conditioner fan described in any one embodiment of above. The specific structure of the bearing mounting structure for air conditioner fan refers to above embodiment, since the present air conditioner adopts all technical solutions of above all embodiments, thus at least have all beneficial effects brought by the technical scheme of above embodiment, here no longer repeat.
[0031] As Fig. 3 As shown in the embodiment of the present application, it includes a bottom frame 8, a fan 9 and a DC motor 10. The DC motor 10 is fixed on the bottom frame 8. The fan drive shaft 1 is arranged in the fan 9. The fan 9 is fixed on the fan drive shaft 1. The fan 9 rotates synchronously with the fan drive shaft 1. The second end of the fan drive shaft 1 is connected with the drive shaft of the DC motor 10. The shell 5 is fixed on the bottom frame 8.
