Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner outdoor unit protection technology, and in particular to an air conditioner outdoor unit protection device. Background Technology

[0002] An air conditioner outdoor unit, also known as an outdoor unit, is usually installed on the exterior wall of a building, balcony, or other location outside the room.

[0003] Existing air conditioner outdoor units have the following shortcomings in use:

[0004] Air conditioner outdoor units are usually installed on the exterior walls of buildings, balconies, etc., outside the room. Without proper protection, there are often objects thrown or falling from heights (such as falling paint) in daily life. If the object has a certain weight and falls on the air conditioner outdoor unit, it can easily damage the unit. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where air conditioner outdoor units are typically installed on the exterior walls of buildings, balconies, etc., and lack corresponding protection. In daily life, there are often instances of objects being thrown or falling from heights (such as wall plaster falling off). If the object has a certain weight and falls on the air conditioner outdoor unit, it can easily damage the unit. Therefore, this utility model proposes an air conditioner outdoor unit protection device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An air conditioner outdoor unit protection device includes an outdoor unit body and a base. The top of the base has four threaded holes. Two first mounting plates are welded to the bottom of both sides of the outdoor unit body to facilitate the installation of the outdoor unit body. Bolts are inserted in the first mounting plates and threadedly connected to the threaded holes. Two second mounting plates are welded to both sides of the base to facilitate the installation of the base.

[0008] The protective mechanism, mounted on the base, is used to protect the main body of the external unit.

[0009] The fixing mechanism is set on the base to fix the protective mechanism.

[0010] In one possible design, the protective mechanism includes a protective plate for protecting the main body of the outdoor unit and two brackets for supporting the protective plate. Both brackets are mounted on a base. The protective plate is located above the main body of the outdoor unit and the two brackets. The bottom of the protective plate is provided with an installation mechanism for fixing the brackets and the protective plate together.

[0011] In one possible design, the fixing mechanism includes four frames, four first threaded rods, and four insert plates. L-shaped brackets are welded to the bottom of both sides of the two supports. The four first threaded rods are threadedly connected to the four L-shaped brackets respectively. The bottom of the four frames is welded to the top four corners of the base respectively. The four insert plates are all L-shaped. The top of the insert plates is slidably connected to the top inner wall of the L-shaped brackets. The frames are U-shaped. One end of the first threaded rod is rotatably connected to one side of the insert plate. One end of the insert plate is inserted into the frame. The other end of the first threaded rod is fixedly provided with a first knob to facilitate the rotation of the first threaded rod.

[0012] In one possible design, the mounting mechanism includes two fixed plates and two second threaded rods. The tops of the two fixed plates are welded to the bottom sides of the protective plate, respectively. The bottom of the fixed plates has slots, and the top of the bracket is inserted into the slots. The two brackets have insertion holes on their opposite sides. The two second threaded rods are threadedly connected to the two fixed plates, with one end of the second threaded rod inserted into the insertion hole. The other end of the second threaded rod is fixedly provided with a second knob to facilitate the rotation of the second threaded rod.

[0013] In one possible design, the top inner wall of the L-frame is provided with a groove to reduce friction caused by the movement of the insert plate, and a slider is fixedly provided on the top of the insert plate, with the top of the slider slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove.

[0014] In one possible design, positioning blocks for positioning the bracket are welded to both sides of the top of the base, and positioning grooves are provided at the bottom of the bracket, into which the positioning blocks are inserted.

[0015] In this application, firstly, the installation location of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is determined, and then the base is placed in that location. Second mounting plates are welded to both sides of the base, allowing it to be fixed to the building or ground. Using appropriate tools and fasteners (such as expansion bolts), the base is securely installed through the holes in the second mounting plates. The outdoor unit body is moved above the base, ensuring that the bottom sides of the outdoor unit body are aligned with the four threaded holes on the top of the base. The outdoor unit body is then threadedly connected to the base using bolts in the first mounting plate, ensuring the outdoor unit body is securely installed on the base. Two brackets are then installed on the base, with the bottom of the brackets inserting into positioning blocks on the base and positioned via positioning slots to ensure stability. After the brackets are inserted into the positioning blocks, the insert plate and frame are aligned. The first knobs of the four first threaded rods are rotated sequentially, causing the first threaded rods to push the insert plate further. Insert the four insert plates into the frame to fix the bracket. Then place the protective plate on top of the bracket and the outdoor unit body (aligning the slots of the two fixing plates with the two brackets) to prepare for fixing. Insert the top of the bracket into the slot at the bottom of the fixing plate. Turn the second knob. The rotation of the second knob drives the rotation of the second threaded rod, so that one end of the second threaded rod is inserted into the insertion hole of the bracket, thereby fixing the bracket and the protective plate. After installation, it can be used. The protective plate can effectively protect the outdoor unit body from falling objects from heights, extending its service life. Since the bracket, protective plate and base are detachable, they effectively reduce the space occupied when not in use, and are easy to transport and carry. The base, bracket and protective plate can all be made of metal.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] In this utility model, the air conditioner outdoor unit protection device can effectively protect the main body of the outdoor unit through the protective mechanism and the protective plate, avoiding damage from objects thrown or falling from heights, and extending its service life.

[0018] In this utility model, the protective device for an air conditioner outdoor unit uses a fixing mechanism. After the bracket is inserted into the positioning block, the insert plate and the frame are aligned. The first knobs of the four first threaded rods are rotated in sequence to push the insert plate further into the frame. The four insert plates are then inserted into the frame, thereby fixing the bracket.

[0019] In this utility model, the protective device for an air conditioner outdoor unit is installed by placing the protective plate above the bracket and the main body of the outdoor unit (aligning the slots of the two fixing plates with the two brackets) in preparation for fixing. The top of the bracket is inserted into the slot at the bottom of the fixing plate. The second knob is rotated, which drives the rotation of the second threaded rod, so that one end of the second threaded rod is inserted into the insertion hole of the bracket, thereby fixing the bracket and the protective plate.

[0020] In this utility model, the protective mechanism can effectively protect the main body of the external unit, preventing objects from being thrown or falling from heights and extending its service life. The fixing mechanism can fix the bracket, and the installation mechanism can install and fix the bracket and the protective plate. Since the bracket, protective plate and base are detachable from each other, the area occupied by the bracket, protective plate and base is effectively reduced when they are not in use, and they are also easy to transport and carry.
