Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning component technology, and more specifically, to a mounting bracket for an evaporator. Background Technology

[0002] In refrigeration, HVAC, and many heat exchange systems, reliable evaporator installation is fundamental to ensuring efficient system operation. However, traditional evaporator mounting brackets present a series of problems that urgently need to be addressed.

[0003] Early mounting brackets mostly used welding or extensive bolt fastening. While welding provides a certain degree of stability, disassembly becomes extremely difficult if the installation position is incorrect or the evaporator needs repair or replacement, potentially damaging the evaporator and surrounding components. Extensive bolt fastening is not only cumbersome, requiring each bolt to be tightened individually to ensure a secure connection, consuming significant time and manpower, but also prone to loosening under long-term vibration and temperature changes, leading to evaporator displacement or abnormal vibration. Therefore, to address these issues, a new mounting bracket for evaporators is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of the prior art, embodiments of this utility model provide a mounting bracket for an evaporator. This mounting bracket utilizes the insertion and connection of an evaporator connecting plate and an insert plate, along with the insertion and fixation of a limiting rod into a limiting groove, thus eliminating the traditional complex connection method. During installation, simply align the evaporator connecting plate with the insert plate and insert it, then insert the limiting rod to complete the fixation. The operation is simple and quick, significantly improving installation efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mounting bracket for an evaporator, comprising an evaporator body, a bracket base disposed on the outer side of the evaporator body, a connecting ball fixedly connected to the bracket base, a mounting rod fixedly connected to the connecting ball, an insert plate fixedly connected to the mounting rod, an evaporator connecting plate fixedly connected to the side of the evaporator body, the insert plate being inserted into the evaporator connecting plate, an auxiliary column fixedly connected to the insert plate, a limit rod slidably connected inside the auxiliary column, a limit groove being formed at one end of the insert plate, and the limit rod passing through the insert plate and inserting into the limit groove.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, a spring is wound around the outside of the limiting rod, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the limiting rod, and the other end of the limiting rod is fixedly connected to the auxiliary column.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a pull ball is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod, and the outer wall of the pull ball is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the evaporator connecting plate is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the evaporator body, and two sets of insert plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the evaporator connecting plate.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the outer wall of the limiting rod is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove, and the auxiliary column corresponds to the limiting groove.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the support base is provided with an adjustment groove, an adjustment screw is slidably connected to the adjustment groove, and an adjustment nut is provided on the adjustment screw.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: This mounting bracket eliminates the traditional complex connection method by using the insertion and connection of the evaporator connecting plate and the insert plate, and the insertion and fixation of the limiting rod into the limiting groove. During installation, simply align the evaporator connecting plate with the insert plate and insert it, then insert the limiting rod to complete the fixation.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-4 An evaporator mounting bracket includes an evaporator body 1, a bracket base 2 on the outer side of the evaporator body 1, a connecting ball block 3 fixedly connected to the bracket base 2, a mounting rod 4 fixedly connected to the connecting ball block 3, an insert plate 6 fixedly connected to the mounting rod 4, an evaporator connecting plate 5 fixedly connected to the side of the evaporator body 1, the insert plate 6 being inserted into the evaporator connecting plate 5, an auxiliary column 7 fixedly connected to the insert plate 6, a limit rod 9 slidably connected inside the auxiliary column 7, and a limit groove 8 formed at one end of the insert plate 6. The limiting rod 9 passes through the insert plate 6 and is inserted into the limiting groove 8. Through the above structure, the installation of the evaporator body 1 and the bracket base 2 is strengthened by ordinary threaded screws, and the fixing method of the evaporator connecting plate 5 is changed to inserting the insert plate 6. Then, the limiting rod 9 inside the auxiliary column 7 is inserted into the limiting groove 8 to achieve the fixing effect, which makes the installation of the evaporator body 1 more convenient and improves the installation efficiency. Conversely, pulling the limiting rod 9 will cause the limiting rod 9 to disengage from the limiting groove 8, so as to achieve the effect of quick disassembly and assembly of the insert plate 6 and the evaporator connecting plate 5.

[0019] In practical applications, such as the installation of evaporators in large refrigeration equipment, installation space is often limited, and traditional complex installation methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. However, the design of this mounting bracket allows installers to first fix the bracket base 2 in the appropriate position using ordinary threaded screws, then easily align the evaporator connecting plate 5 with the insert plate 6 for insertion, and finally insert the limiting rod 9 into the limiting slot 8. The entire installation process is completed in one go, greatly saving installation time. During equipment maintenance, when the evaporator needs to be disassembled for repair, simply pulling the limiting rod 9 quickly separates the insert plate 6 from the evaporator connecting plate 5, improving maintenance efficiency.

[0020] Then, a spring 10 is wound around the outside of the limiting rod 9. One end of the spring 10 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 9, and the other end of the limiting rod 9 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary column 7. The elasticity of the spring 10 drives the limiting rod 9 to be inserted downward, thereby improving the stability of the fixing between the insert plate 6 and the evaporator connecting plate 5.

[0021] Taking the evaporator of an air conditioner used daily as an example, a certain degree of vibration will be generated during the operation of the air conditioner. At this time, the spring 10 wrapped around the limit rod 9 plays an important role. With its elastic properties, the spring 10 can adaptively adjust the position of the limit rod 9 when vibration occurs, always maintaining a tight insertion into the limit groove 8, and preventing the insertion plate 6 from loosening with the evaporator connecting plate 5 due to vibration. This ensures the stability of the evaporator during long-term operation. Even under long-term high-frequency vibration, the continuous elasticity of the spring 10 can effectively maintain the stability of the connection and extend the service life of the evaporator installation structure.

[0022] Subsequently, a pull ball 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod 9, and the outer wall of the pull ball 11 is provided with anti-slip texture; this structure facilitates the operator to pull the limiting rod 9 and has an anti-slip effect.

[0023] Imagine that during installation or disassembly, the operator's hands may not be able to grip the limit rod 9 properly due to tension, sweating, or a narrow operating space. The pull ball 11 connected to one end of the limit rod 9 has specially designed anti-slip textures on its outer wall, which solves this problem. These anti-slip textures increase the friction between the hand and the pull ball 11, allowing the operator to easily and firmly grip the pull ball 11 and accurately pull the limit rod 9, whether in a dry environment or with slightly sweaty hands, to separate or insert the limit rod 9 from the limit groove 8. This greatly improves the convenience and accuracy of the operation and reduces installation or disassembly difficulties caused by operational errors.

[0024] Next, the evaporator connecting plate 5 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the evaporator body 1, and two sets of insert plates 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the evaporator connecting plate 5; the above structure enhances the fixing effect of the evaporator connecting plate 5 and the insert plates 6.

[0025] From the perspective of mechanical principles, the evaporator connecting plate 5 is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the evaporator body 1, and two sets of insert plates 6 are set on each side. This symmetrical structure makes the force borne by the evaporator in all directions more uniform after installation. Taking a large industrial evaporator as an example, during operation, it may be subjected to external forces from different directions, such as airflow impact and vibration generated by the operation of the equipment itself. The symmetrically arranged evaporator connecting plate 5 and insert plates 6 can evenly distribute these external forces, avoiding excessive local stress, thereby effectively enhancing the overall stability of the evaporator body 1 after installation. Moreover, this symmetrical structure facilitates the design and manufacture of molds during the production process, reduces production costs, and improves production efficiency.

[0026] At this time, the outer wall of the limiting rod 9 and the inner wall of the limiting groove 8 are in contact with each other, and the auxiliary column 7 corresponds to the limiting groove 8. This mechanism enables the limiting rod 9 to slide smoothly between the auxiliary column 7 and the limiting groove 8, ensuring the stability of the limiting rod 9.

[0027] In actual installation and use, the fitting accuracy between the outer wall of the limiting rod 9 and the inner wall of the limiting groove 8 is crucial. When the limiting rod 9 is inserted into the limiting groove 8, the tightly fitting inner and outer walls provide excellent guidance and positioning. The auxiliary column 7 corresponds to the limiting groove 8, providing a precise track for the sliding of the limiting rod 9. This is analogous to a train running on rails; the limiting rod 9 can slide smoothly along the "track" formed by the auxiliary column 7 and the limiting groove 8. Even under slight external disturbances, the limiting rod 9 can maintain a stable sliding state, ensuring a secure connection between the insert plate 6 and the evaporator connecting plate 5, preventing loosening due to shaking of the limiting rod 9, and further improving the reliability of the entire mounting bracket.

[0028] It should be noted that the support base 2 is provided with an adjustment groove 12, and an adjustment screw 13 is slidably connected to the adjustment groove 12. An adjustment nut 14 is provided on the adjustment screw 13. Through the above structure, the adjustment screw 13 can slide on the adjustment groove 12, thereby allowing the support base 2 to be finely adjusted.

[0029] Due to the complexity of the installation environment, uneven ground or situations requiring precise positioning adjustments for docking with other equipment frequently occur. In these cases, the adjustment structure consisting of the adjustment groove 12, adjustment screw 13, and adjustment nut 14 on the bracket base 2 plays a crucial role. For example, when the evaporator needs to be installed on a slightly inclined surface, by loosening the adjustment nut 14 and adjusting the position of the adjustment screw 13 in the adjustment groove 12, the bracket base 2 can be adapted to the ground's inclination, ensuring the evaporator body 1 is level and thus guaranteeing the evaporator's normal operation. This fine-tuning effectively solves problems caused by differences in the installation environment, improving the adaptability and versatility of the mounting bracket.

[0030] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
