Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning packaging technology, and in particular to a packaging structure for a vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the new energy industry, vertical liquid-cooled air conditioners are used in power energy storage fields such as grid-side energy storage power stations and distributed energy storage systems to effectively control the temperature of energy storage batteries, improve the charging and discharging efficiency and cycle life of energy storage systems, and ensure the stable operation of power systems. In the process of moving from the manufacturing stage to the market end, the packaging structure plays a crucial role in ensuring product integrity and facilitating transportation and storage.

[0003] Traditional packaging and shipping of vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioners often involves using custom-made bases to support the equipment. Specifically, this involves custom-molding a base specifically to match the bottom contours and dimensions of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner, creating a precisely fitted positioning cavity. However, mold manufacturing costs are high, especially for small-batch production of special-specification vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioners. The cost of the mold, when spread across a single unit, significantly increases the cost of the packaging base. Furthermore, if the bottom structure of the air conditioner changes slightly due to design optimizations or functional improvements, the original mold may become obsolete, requiring a significant investment in creating a new mold, further increasing operating costs and production management complexity.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new packaging structure that can both stabilize and fix vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioners, ensure transportation safety, and reduce costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a packaging structure for a vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner, which aims to ensure the packaging is sturdy and reduce costs.

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

[0007] A packaging structure for a vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner includes foot plates on both the front and rear sides of the air conditioner, each foot plate having two mounting holes. The packaging structure comprises a wooden base supporting the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner, two corner protectors respectively located at the front and rear corners of the air conditioner, and a top cover covering the top of the air conditioner and the corner protectors. The vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner is placed upright on the top surface of the wooden base, and each mounting hole has a self-tapping screw that can be driven into the wooden base to fix the air conditioner to the wooden base.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the corner protector is a pearl cotton corner protector, which includes a door-shaped body and a limiting back body provided on the back of the door-shaped body, and the limiting back body is provided with an avoidance opening.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the wooden base includes a rectangular lower plate, a front pad, a middle pad and a rear pad disposed on the lower plate, and an upper plate disposed on the front pad, the middle pad and the rear pad.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the front ends of the upper plate, the front pad, and the lower plate are reinforced by a front end plate, and the rear ends of the upper plate, the rear pad, and the lower plate are reinforced by a rear end plate.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the top cover is a paper cover and the outer cover is bound to the wooden base by packaging straps.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, the packaging structure of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner provided by this utility model abandons the high-cost model of custom-made molds for the bottom contour and size of the air conditioner in traditional packaging methods. Utilizing the air conditioner's own foot structure, only a universally sized wooden base and matching self-tapping screws are needed for stable installation, greatly reducing packaging costs. For small-batch production of special-specification products or situations where the bottom structure of the product changes frequently due to design optimization, there is no need to repeatedly invest in high mold-making costs, effectively controlling the cost ratio of the packaging part and significantly improving the product's market competitiveness and economic benefits.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] This utility model provides a packaging structure for a vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the following describes this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] The vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 is equipped with foot plates 2 on both its front and rear sides, and each foot plate 2 has two mounting holes. During actual use and installation, the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 is fixed to the mounting platform by bolts passing through the mounting holes and connecting to the threaded holes on the mounting platform.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a packaging structure for a vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1. The vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 is provided with foot plates 2 on both the front and rear sides. The foot plates 2 have two mounting holes. The packaging structure includes a wooden base 4 for supporting the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1, two corner guards 5 respectively set at the front and rear corners of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1, and a top cover 6 covering the top of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 and the corner guards 5. The vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 is placed upright on the top surface of the wooden base 4. Each mounting hole is provided with a self-tapping screw 3 that is driven into the wooden base 4 to fix the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 on the wooden base 4.

[0020] During packaging, the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 is placed upright on the top surface of the wooden base 4, and the mounting holes are used to mate with the wooden base 4. By driving self-tapping screws 3 into each mounting hole, as the self-tapping screws 3 rotate into the wooden base 4, their threads form a tight interlocking relationship with the wooden material of the wooden base 4, thereby firmly fixing the feet 2 of the air conditioner to the wooden base 4. This achieves stable positioning of the air conditioner relative to the wooden base 4 in the horizontal direction and a certain vertical direction, preventing the air conditioner from shifting due to shaking, collisions or other external forces during handling and transportation.

[0021] Corner guards 5 are installed at the front and rear corners of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1. The corner guards 5 fit snugly against the corners of the air conditioner, providing additional physical protection for the corner areas that are prone to bumps and impacts during transportation, thus buffering external impacts. At the same time, the top cover 6 covers the top of the air conditioner and the corner guards 5, forming a relatively closed and stable protective space together with the corner guards 5. This further stabilizes the position of the corner guards 5 and enhances the protection of the overall structure of the air conditioner, ensuring that the integrity of the air conditioner product is not damaged during warehousing and transportation.

[0022] Compared with existing technologies, the packaging structure of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 provided by this utility model abandons the high-cost model of custom-made molds for the bottom contour and size of the air conditioner in traditional packaging methods. Utilizing the air conditioner's own foot plate 2 structure, only a universally sized wooden base 4 and matching self-tapping screws 3 are needed to complete a stable installation, greatly reducing packaging costs. For small-batch production of special-specification products or situations where the bottom structure of the product changes frequently due to design optimization, there is no need to repeatedly invest in high mold-making costs, effectively controlling the cost ratio of the packaging part and significantly improving the product's market competitiveness and economic benefits.

[0023] Furthermore, the corner protector 5 is made of pearl cotton. Pearl cotton is soft and elastic, and can efficiently absorb and disperse external impacts during transportation and storage. The corner protector 5 includes a door-shaped body 51 and a limiting backing body 52 set on the back of the door-shaped body 51. The limiting backing body 52 fits against the front or rear face of the air conditioner body, further stabilizing the position of the corner protector 5 and enhancing the stability of the overall protective structure. The limiting backing body 52 has an avoidance opening, which cleverly solves the problem of interference between the protruding connector on the air conditioner and the corner protector 5. Taking the corner protector 5 installed at the top front corner of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1 as an example, the corner protector 5 can reduce the amount of packaging materials by simultaneously protecting the two front corners of the vertical energy storage liquid-cooled air conditioner 1.

[0024] Specifically, the wooden base 4 includes a rectangular lower plate 41, a front pad 42, a middle pad 43, and a rear pad 44 disposed on the lower plate 41, and an upper plate 45 disposed on the front pad 42, the middle pad 43, and the rear pad 44. The wooden base 4 adopts a layered design, composed of the lower plate 41, the front pad 42, the middle pad 43, the rear pad 44, and the upper plate 45. Wood itself has a certain elasticity and cushioning performance, and the layered structure further enhances this advantage. When encountering vibrations and bumps during transportation, such as continuous vibrations generated when a truck travels on rough roads, the space formed between the upper plate 45 and the lower plate 41 by the front, middle, and rear pads 44 can work together with the inherent properties of wood to effectively absorb and disperse the impact force, preventing the vibration energy from directly "hard impacting" the bottom of the air conditioner, and reducing the risk of loosening, wear, and fatigue damage to the precision components inside the air conditioner (such as the compressor and piping system) caused by frequent vibrations.

[0025] To further enhance the structural strength of the wooden base 4, the front ends of the upper plate 45, the front pad 42 and the lower plate 41 are reinforcedly connected by the front end plate 46, and the rear ends of the upper plate 45, the rear pad 44 and the lower plate 41 are reinforcedly connected by the rear end plate 47.

[0026] Preferably, the top cover 6 is a paper cover, and the outer cover is bound to the wooden base 4 by packaging straps 7. Although the paper cover itself is relatively thin, in conjunction with protective components such as corner protectors 5, it can serve as part of the overall protective system, providing a certain degree of cushioning for the top of the air conditioner and reducing damage to the top of the air conditioner caused by minor collisions, squeezing, or other external forces from above, further maintaining the integrity of the equipment. The packaging straps 7 can firmly fix the paper cover in a suitable position, preventing it from shifting or falling off during transportation due to shaking or bumps, ensuring that the paper cover always performs its protective function. Understandably, a portion of the packaging straps 7 will pass through the gap between the upper plate 45 and the lower plate 41, achieving packaging without lifting the wooden base 4.
