Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and more specifically, to an automotive evaporator with a support structure that facilitates installation. Background Technology
[0002] The automotive evaporator is a crucial component of the car's air conditioning system. Its primary function is to convert the refrigerant from a liquid to a gaseous state, thereby absorbing heat from the surrounding environment and achieving a cooling effect. Evaporators are typically made of aluminum alloy or copper, materials known for their excellent thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. They often feature multiple channels and fins, significantly increasing their contact area with air and thus improving heat exchange efficiency. The working principle is as follows: Refrigerant circulation: In the automotive air conditioning system, the refrigerant is compressed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas by the compressor, then flows into the condenser. After exchanging heat with the outside air, it cools into a liquid and is slightly pressurized. Evaporation process: The liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator through the expansion valve. Due to the pressure reduction, the refrigerant rapidly evaporates into a gas. During this process, the evaporator surface temperature decreases, cooling the surrounding air. The ventilation system then delivers the cooled air through the evaporator into the vehicle interior, achieving cooling. The automotive evaporator is supported by a bracket, which mainly consists of a support base and a support plate or rod. Since the required support range varies depending on the size of the automotive evaporator, adjustments to the support are necessary.
[0003] In related technologies, during the use of automotive evaporator brackets, the support range of the bracket is generally changed by shifting the support plates or rods on both sides of the bracket, thereby adjusting the support and adapting the automotive evaporator for use.
[0004] However, in the current use of automotive evaporator brackets, only the support width can be adjusted by moving the support plate or rod, while the support height is difficult to adjust according to the size of the automotive evaporator. When the support height of the bracket differs significantly from that of the automotive evaporator, uneven support force from the bracket on the automotive evaporator can easily occur, causing the unsupported end of the automotive evaporator to wobble. This requires the operator to use another set of brackets to support the other end of the automotive evaporator, affecting the support stability and ease of operation of the automotive evaporator.

This provides a medium for operators to adjust the support height according to the support requirements of the automotive evaporator body 1, so that users can support the automotive evaporator body 1 according to its actual support needs. This avoids situations where the support of the automotive evaporator body 1 is difficult to adapt to the support requirements, resulting in the need for separate support at both ends of the automotive evaporator body 1. Therefore, it improves the support stability and operation convenience of the automotive evaporator body 1.
[0031] Reference Figures 1-4In a preferred embodiment, the support adjustment mechanism includes a support base 4, which is movably connected to the right side of the bottom of the automotive evaporator body 1.

An adjustment frame 7 is movably connected inside the adjustment shell 6. The adjustment connection mechanism is located on the outer side of the inner wall of the adjustment shell 6. According to the actual support range requirements of the automotive evaporator body 1, the support range of the adjustment shell 6 and the adjustment frame 7 can be adjusted by moving the support base 4 and the support frame 5. Furthermore, according to the actual support height requirements of the automotive evaporator body 1, the support height of the adjustment frame 7 and the adjustment shell 6 can be adjusted by raising and lowering the handheld adjustment frame 7, so that the operator can adjust the adjustment height of the adjustment frame 7 and the adjustment shell 6. The automotive evaporator body 1 is supported and adapted. The adjustment and connection mechanism includes a connecting groove 8, a connecting seat 9, and a connecting pad 10. The connecting groove 8 is opened on the outer side of the inner wall of the adjustment shell 6. The connecting seat 9 is movably connected to the inside of the connecting groove 8.

The clamping groove 19 is movably connected to a clamping post 20 that contacts the adjusting frame 7. This allows for adjustment and positioning between the adjusting frame 7 and the adjusting shell 6, thus improving the ease of positioning the adjusting frame 7. A screw hole 21 is provided on the front side of the inner wall of the clamping groove 19. A bolt 22 is threaded into the screw hole 21. The rear side of the bolt 22 is fixedly connected to the front side of the clamping post 20, providing a medium for the clamping post 20 to apply clamping force to the adjusting frame 7, thus improving the clamping effect of the clamping post 20.
[0035] Specifically, the working process or principle of this automotive evaporator with a convenient mounting bracket structure is as follows: In use, the automotive evaporator body 1 is placed on top of the support base 4 and support frame 5, so that the automotive evaporator body 1 is located inside the adjusting shell 6 and adjusting frame 7. According to the required support height of the automotive evaporator body 1, the adjusting frame 7 is raised and lowered by hand to change the support height of the adjusting frame 7 and adjusting shell 6. At this time, the connecting seat 9 moves with the adjusting frame 7 inside the connecting groove 8 to adjust the connection between the adjusting frame 7 and adjusting shell 6. Simultaneously, the magnetic strip 12, in conjunction with the magnetic strip 11, passes through the connecting seat 9 to magnetically stabilize the adjusted adjusting frame 7 and adjusting shell 6. Then, the stud 14 is rotated to engage the screw hole 21, pushing the clamping post 20 to contact and clamp the adjusted frame 7, thus clamping and positioning the adjusted adjusting frame 7 and adjusting shell 6. Finally, according to the actual support width requirement of the automotive evaporator body 1, the connecting frame 16 is held in conjunction with the connecting... The connecting hole 15 drives the stud 14 to rotate, causing the stud 14 to apply threaded thrust to the support base 4 through the threaded groove 13. This causes the support base 4 to move the adjusting shell 6 and the adjusting bracket 7 toward the car evaporator body 1, providing stable support and clamping for the car evaporator body 1. At this time, the connecting pad 10 contacts the surface of the car evaporator body 1, providing clamping support and anti-slip support for the car evaporator body 1. Simultaneously, the slider 18 moves with the support base 4 inside the sliding groove 17, providing a sliding connection between the support base 4 and the support bracket 5, thus supporting and clamping the car evaporator body 1 inside the adjusting shell 6 and the adjusting bracket 7. During this process, the connecting bracket 16 rotates inside the connecting hole 15, connecting the stud 14 and the support bracket 5, and magnetically positioning the stud 14 after the operation. Subsequently, the car evaporator body 1, after being clamped and supported, can be fixed by the mounting seat and mounting bolt provided on the bottom outer side of the support base 4 and the support bracket 5.

Their power supply, specific composition, and principles are clear to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.
