The base is arranged below the water chiller body. The mounting cavity is arranged in the base. The lifting device comprises a sliding plate arranged in the mounting cavity and a lifting mechanism arranged in the mounting cavity. The water chiller body is arranged on the sliding plate. The lifting mechanism is drivingly connected with the sliding plate to drive the sliding plate to lift.
[0004] The above-mentioned water chiller changes the height of the water chiller body by setting the lifting mechanism during use, so that operators with different heights can easily load the water chiller or perform other operations. However, after the water chiller is updated, the conveying system composed of a conveying pipeline, a solenoid valve, and a frequency converter is generally used to supply water to the water chiller or make it discharge water to realize the loading work. However, during the long-term use of the water chiller, the sealing performance of the conveying pipeline or the output pipeline may deteriorate, and thus part of the water may escape from the conveying pipeline or the output pipeline and flow to the ground during the operation of the water chiller, causing environmental pollution around the water chiller and not meeting the clean management requirements of enterprises.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a water chiller bearing assembly to solve the above-mentioned problems. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0028] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model, obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor are within the protection scope of the utility model.
[0029] As Figures 1-4As shown, a support assembly for a chilled water machine includes a support bracket 1 for installing the chilled water machine, a water collection tray 2 rotatably mounted on the support bracket 1 on one side, and fasteners 3. Specifically, one side of the water collection tray 2 is rotatably mounted on the support bracket 1 via a pin 8, and the fasteners 3 are mounted on the support bracket 1 to lock the other side of the water collection tray 2, so that the top opening of the water collection tray 2 can be kept in place. Figure 1 The water chiller is positioned horizontally as shown. During use, the chiller is placed on the support bracket 1 and can be reinforced with bolts or other fasteners. The overflow water from the chiller during use flows downward into the water collection tray 2. Furthermore, the center of the water collection tray 2 is protruded outward to make it a semi-circular trough. This semi-circular trough design increases the water storage cavity of the water collection tray 2.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the installation position of the water collection tray 2 on the support bracket 1 is as follows: The top of the support bracket 1 forms a support surface for the installation of the chiller. The chiller is placed on the support surface, and the water collection tray 2 is placed on the support bracket 1, with the water collection tray 2 located below the support surface. This installation position allows the vertical projection of the chiller to fall within the projection of the water collection tray 2. In other words, the size of the water collection tray 2 needs to accommodate the vertical projection of the chiller so that when the chiller overflows, all the overflow water can be collected by the water collection tray 2. At the same time, the semi-circular groove of the water collection tray 2 can further increase the water collection capacity.
[0031] After a significant amount of overflow water has been collected inside the water collection tray 2, the worker releases the fastener 3 from one side of the water collection tray 2. At this point, that side of the water collection tray 2 is in a free state, allowing it to rotate around the pivot pin 8. The opening of the water collection tray 2 will then tilt, allowing the overflow water to be poured out. Figure 5 As shown, in some possible implementations, a conical outlet 7 is provided on the side of the water collection tray 2 near the fastener 3. This conical outlet 7, during the pouring of the water collection tray 2, can limit the water flow direction, facilitating collection and disposal by workers. It should be noted that the pouring cycle can be set according to work conditions. The fastener 3 includes a set bolt threaded onto the support bracket 1, and one end of the set bolt can be threaded to the outer side of the water collection tray 2. Of course, the fastener 3 can also be other conventional technologies found in the prior art, and this document does not limit it to these methods.
[0032] like Figures 1-3As shown, in order to ensure that the water collection tray 2 can rotate smoothly to the corresponding tilting position during the above-mentioned tilting process, this utility model also includes a guide component. The guide component includes a guide rod 4 disposed on the outside of the water collection tray 2. An arc-shaped slot 5 is provided on the support bracket 1 for one end of the guide rod 4 to pass through. Specifically, a connecting plate 9 is fixedly disposed on the support bracket 1, and the arc-shaped slot 5 is disposed on the connecting plate 9. The position of the arc-shaped slot 5 needs to satisfy the following condition: the arc-shaped slot 5 is coaxially arranged with the virtual circle formed by the rotation of the water collection tray 2. Therefore, when the water collection tray 2 rotates, the water collection tray 2 will drive the guide rod 4 to slide on the arc-shaped slot 5. Under the guiding and limiting effect of the arc-shaped slot 5 on the guide rod 4, the tilting process of the water collection tray 2 can be made smoother and more stable. When the water collection tray 2 is driven to reverse and reset, since the top position of the arc-shaped slot 5 is fixed, when the water collection tray 2 drives the guide rod 4 to rotate in the opposite direction, the guide rod 4 will first come into contact with the top inner wall of the arc-shaped slot 5. At this time, it means that the water collection tray 2 has been reversed to the initial position. At this time, the fastener 3 can be used to lock the water collection tray 2.
[0033] In summary, the arc-shaped slot 5 provided in this utility model can not only guide the water collection tray 2 during the tilting process, but also limit the water collection tray 2 during the resetting process.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, due to prolonged use, even after emptying the water from the water collection tray 2 by rotating it, significant amounts of dirt still accumulate at the junctions of its adjacent inner walls, requiring deep cleaning. Therefore, one end of the guide rod 4 is detachably mounted on the outside of the water collection tray 2. During factory shutdowns for maintenance or repairs, the guide rod 4 can be removed from the water collection tray 2. Then, by releasing the pin 8 from the water collection tray 2, it can be completely disassembled for deep cleaning. It should be noted that the detachable connection can be achieved through bolting, snap-fitting, or plugging. When plugging is selected, a cross pin 6 can be fixedly installed on the outside of the water collection tray 2, and one end of the guide rod 4 has a cross slot (not shown in the figure) for the cross pin 6 to be inserted.
[0035] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
