Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air conditioner condensers, and in particular relates to a condenser inlet pipe assembly that is easy to process. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of the condenser inlet pipe assembly is to transport the refrigerant to the condenser, allowing it to circulate between the evaporator and condenser to achieve cooling. For example, application number 202322491432.4 discloses a condenser inlet pipe assembly with multiple second pipes connected to a first pipe for refrigerant transport. However, because these first pipes are relatively long and made of copper, their manufacturing difficulty is increased, making them prone to deformation during processing. Furthermore, once formed, the first pipe can only be used in specific air conditioners, resulting in poor versatility. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a condenser inlet pipe assembly that is easy to process and can solve at least one of the above problems.

[0004] According to one aspect of the present invention, a condenser inlet pipe assembly that is easy to process is provided, including a first condenser inlet pipe, a second condenser inlet pipe, a tee pipe, a first branch pipe and a second branch pipe. The first condenser inlet pipe and the second condenser inlet pipe are connected through one end of the tee pipe. The first condenser inlet pipe is provided with multiple first branch pipes, and the second condenser inlet pipe is provided with multiple second branch pipes. An L-shaped pipe is connected to the other end of the tee pipe.

[0005] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By providing a three-way pipe, the connection between the first condenser inlet pipe and the second condenser inlet pipe can be facilitated, thereby facilitating the individual processing of the first and second condenser inlet pipes. This helps to shorten the length of a single condenser inlet pipe, thereby reducing the processing difficulty of a single condenser inlet pipe and ensuring the processing accuracy of each condenser inlet pipe. At the same time, since the two condenser inlet pipes are connected by a three-way pipe, only one condenser inlet pipe needs to be replaced according to specific usage requirements, without the need for a complete replacement, thus improving adaptability.

[0006] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe is equal to the inner diameter of the second condenser inlet pipe, while the inner diameters of both the first and second branch pipes are smaller than the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe. This facilitates the distribution of the refrigerant introduced into the first and second condenser inlet pipes to each branch pipe.

[0007] In some embodiments, a plurality of first external connectors are provided on the outer side of the first condenser inlet pipe. The first external connectors are located on opposite sides of the first condenser inlet pipe, and one end of each first branch pipe is inserted into the corresponding first external connector. Thus, by providing the first external connectors, it is convenient to quickly connect the first branch pipe and the first condenser inlet pipe; and the location of the first external connectors on opposite sides of the first condenser inlet pipe facilitates the processing of the first external connectors on the first condenser inlet pipe.

[0008] In some embodiments, the easily manufactured condenser inlet pipe assembly also includes an L-shaped bend, with a quick-connect fitting at the end of the first condenser inlet pipe furthest from the tee, and the L-shaped bend is fitted and fixed onto the quick-connect fitting. Thus, by providing the quick-connect fitting, it is convenient to install the L-shaped bend at the top of the first condenser inlet pipe, thereby increasing the refrigerant delivery end.

[0009] In some embodiments, a plurality of second external connectors are provided on the outer side of the second condenser inlet pipe, and the plurality of second external connectors are located on the same side of the second condenser inlet pipe. One end of each second branch pipe is inserted into the corresponding second external connector. Thus, by providing second external connectors, it is convenient to quickly connect the second branch pipe and the second condenser inlet pipe; the fact that the plurality of second external connectors are located on the same side of the second condenser inlet pipe facilitates the processing of the second external connectors on the second condenser inlet pipe.

[0010] In some embodiments, the easily manufactured condenser inlet pipe assembly also includes a cap that covers the end of the second condenser inlet pipe furthest from the tee. Thus, by providing the cap, the corresponding end of the second condenser inlet pipe can be easily sealed, preventing external dust and impurities from entering the pipe during transport.

[0011] In some implementations, the inner diameter of the L-shaped pipe is the same as the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe. This allows for the convenient addition of refrigerant, etc., to the condenser inlet pipe via the L-shaped pipe. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Reference Figures 1-6 The easily processed condenser inlet pipe assembly includes a first condenser inlet pipe 1, a second condenser inlet pipe 2, a tee pipe 3, a first branch pipe 4, and a second branch pipe 5. The first condenser inlet pipe 1 and the second condenser inlet pipe 2 are connected through one end of the tee pipe 3. The first condenser inlet pipe 1 is provided with multiple first branch pipes 4, and the second condenser inlet pipe 2 is provided with multiple second branch pipes 5. An L-shaped pipe 8 is connected to the other end of the tee pipe 3.

[0020] In actual processing, the first condenser inlet pipe 1 and the second condenser inlet pipe 2 are processed respectively; then the first branch pipe 4 is matched with the first condenser inlet pipe 1, and the second branch pipe 5 is matched with the second condenser inlet pipe 2; then the tee pipe 3 is used to connect the first condenser inlet pipe 1 and the second condenser inlet pipe 2; finally, the L-shaped pipe 8 is inserted into the other end of the tee pipe 3 to complete the assembly.

[0021] The inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe 1 is equal to the inner diameter of the second condenser inlet pipe 2, while the inner diameters of the first branch pipe 4 and the second branch pipe 5 are both smaller than the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe 1. Therefore, the refrigerant introduced into the first condenser inlet pipe 1 and the second condenser inlet pipe 2 can be distributed to each of the first branch pipes 4 and the second branch pipe 5, and then introduced into the condenser via each branch pipe.

[0022] Multiple first external connectors 11 are formed on the outer side of the first condenser inlet pipe 1. The first external connectors 11 are located on opposite sides of the first condenser inlet pipe 1, and one end of each first branch pipe 4 is inserted into the corresponding first external connector 11. During installation, the first branch pipe 4 is inserted into the corresponding first external connector 11 to achieve quick installation of the first branch pipe 4. The first branch pipe 4 is bent accordingly during processing according to different connection positions to meet different installation requirements.

[0023] The easily processed condenser inlet pipe assembly of this utility model also includes an L-shaped bend 6. A quick connector 12 is provided at the end of the first condenser inlet pipe 1 away from the tee pipe, and the L-shaped bend 6 is sleeved and fixed on the quick connector 12. The quick connector 12 is directly formed by inwardly narrowing one end of the first condenser inlet pipe 1, and the diameter of the quick connector 12 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe 1; one end of the L-shaped bend 6 is directly inserted into the quick connector 12 for fixation.

[0024] Multiple second external connectors 21 are formed on the outer side of the second condenser inlet pipe 2. The multiple second external connectors 21 are located on the same side of the second condenser inlet pipe 2, and one end of each second branch pipe 5 is inserted into the corresponding second external connector 21. The direct insertion of one end of the second branch pipe 5 into the corresponding second external connector 21 realizes the installation and fixation of the second branch pipe 5.

[0025] The easily processed condenser inlet pipe assembly of this utility model also includes a cap 7, which covers the end of the second condenser inlet pipe 2 away from the tee pipe 3. The cap 7 directly covers the end of the second condenser inlet pipe 2, thus sealing the corresponding end of the second condenser inlet pipe 2. Therefore, during transportation, the cooperation between the cap 7 and the second condenser inlet pipe 2 prevents external dust from entering the pipe, providing a dustproof function.

[0026] The inner diameter of the L-shaped pipe 8 is the same as the inner diameter of the first condenser inlet pipe 1. The L-shaped pipe 8 is directly inserted into the corresponding end of the tee pipe 3 for fixation. In use, it can be connected to the external refrigerant through the L-shaped pipe 8, allowing the air conditioner to be refrigerant added without the need for a separate connecting pipe, which is convenient to use.

[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
