Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] The compressor is located inside the casing of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The compressor compresses the refrigerant and delivers it through the compressor piping to complete the cooling, heating, or dehumidifying functions of the air conditioning system. During operation, the compressor generates certain mechanical vibrations and airflow pulses, which can easily cause vibrations in the compressor piping, leading to collisions between adjacent compressor piping, abnormal noises, and a decrease in piping reliability.

[0003] In related technologies, vibration damping components are installed on the compressor pipeline to reduce the vibration amplitude of the pipeline by fixing the compressor pipeline or using elastic elements to buffer the pipeline vibration.

[0004] However, in the confined space of an air conditioner's outdoor unit, the compressor piping is close together, and current vibration damping components cannot ensure that the compressor piping will not collide. The vibration damping effect can be further improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes an outdoor unit for an air conditioner, in which a rotating assembly drives the compressor piping to rotate relative to the connecting parts. Friction occurs between the contact surfaces of the rotating assembly and the connecting parts, resulting in energy loss, which can minimize the vibration amplitude of the compressor piping.

[0006] An outdoor unit of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a housing; a compressor disposed within the housing; a compressor pipeline connected to the compressor and used for transporting refrigerant; and further includes: a vibration damping assembly disposed within the housing and connected to the compressor pipeline; wherein the vibration damping assembly includes: a connector; and a rotating assembly, one end of which is fixedly connected to the compressor pipeline and the other end of which is connected to the connector, and the rotating assembly is rotatable relative to the connector.

[0007] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is connected to the compressor pipeline and the connector respectively through a rotating assembly. The rotating assembly drives the compressor pipeline to rotate relative to the connector. Friction occurs between the contact surfaces of the rotating assembly and the connector. The relative motion between the contact surfaces generates heat, thereby converting the mechanical energy of the compressor pipeline vibration into heat energy. The heat is dissipated into the environment, resulting in energy loss. This can minimize the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, avoid collisions caused by large vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, reduce abnormal noise, and improve the reliability and service life of the compressor pipeline.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating assembly includes: a first fixing member having a first receiving cavity, a connecting member passing through the first receiving cavity, and a first limiting portion being provided in the first receiving cavity; and the connecting member having a second limiting portion, the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion being mutually limiting.

[0009] By using the limiting cooperation of the first limiting part and the second limiting part, not only can the first fixing part be accurately installed and positioned, but the connection stability between the connecting part and the first fixing part can also be enhanced, preventing the rotating component from sliding or falling off when rotating relative to the connecting part.

[0011] The protrusion can slide circumferentially along the connector, but not axially. This ensures the rotating component can rotate relative to the connecting rod while preventing it from sliding on or detaching from the connector, thus improving the reliability of the vibration damping assembly. Two baffles limit the range of the protrusion's sliding within the groove, allowing the rotating component to rotate relative to the connecting rod within a certain range, preventing excessive vibration of the compressor piping.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connector is provided with a guide portion, the guide portion extends from one end of the connector and communicates with the second limiting portion, and the guide portion guides and cooperates with the first limiting portion.

[0015] The compressor piping can be easily installed into the second receiving cavity through the opening, making assembly more convenient.

[0016] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating assembly includes: a first connecting rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to the first fixing member; and a second connecting rod, one end of which is connected to the second fixing member and the other end of which is connected to the first connecting rod, and the second connecting rod is slidable relative to the first connecting rod to generate a damping force.

[0017] Damping force can significantly reduce the vibration amplitude of compressor pipelines, thereby reducing noise generated by vibration and improving the stability and reliability of the compressor.

[0018] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the rotating assembly includes: an elastic element sandwiched between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod; or, a damping element sandwiched between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod.

[0019] Vibration energy in the compressor pipeline is absorbed by elastic or damping components, further reducing the vibration amplitude.

[0020] According to some embodiments of the present invention, one end of the second connecting rod is provided with a rotating part, and the rotating part is rotatably connected to the second fixing member.

[0021] The second fixing component can rotate at any angle, making it suitable for various piping situations.

[0022] According to some embodiments of the present invention, there are at least two rotating components, and the rotation angles of the at least two rotating components relative to the connector are staggered.

[0023] The rotating components rotate at different angles to prevent collisions between compressor pipes.

[0024] An outdoor unit of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a casing; a compressor disposed within the casing; a compressor pipeline connected to the compressor and used for transporting refrigerant; and further includes: a vibration damping assembly disposed within the casing and connected to the compressor pipeline; wherein the vibration damping assembly includes: a connector; and a rotating assembly, one end of which is fixedly connected to the compressor pipeline and the other end of which is connected to the connector, the rotating assembly being rotatable relative to the connector and capable of generating damping force internally.

[0041] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0042] The following is for reference. Figures 1-10 This invention describes an outdoor unit of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0043] Reference Figures 1-2 As shown, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner in this embodiment of the present invention includes: a casing, a compressor, compressor piping, and a vibration damping assembly 100.

[0044] The compressor is housed within a casing. It draws in low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and compresses it, increasing its temperature and pressure to create a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. Compressor piping connects to the compressor and is used to transport the refrigerant. Thus, the high-temperature, high-pressure gas from the compressor is delivered through the compressor piping to the heat exchanger and the indoor unit of the air conditioner, completing the cooling, heating, or dehumidifying functions of the air conditioning system.

[0045] During operation, compressors generate mechanical vibrations and airflow pulses, especially when the refrigerant flows on the high-pressure side. The rapid flow of gas and pressure changes can cause vibrations in the compressor piping. For outdoor units of air conditioners with limited internal space, compressor piping vibrations can easily cause adjacent compressor piping to collide, resulting in abnormal noises and reduced piping reliability.

[0046] Therefore, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner may also include a vibration damping component 100. The vibration damping component 100 is disposed inside the casing and connected to the compressor piping. The vibration damping component 100 reduces the vibration of the compressor piping, avoids pipe collision problems, and improves the service life and reliability of the compressor piping. The vibration damping component 100 in this embodiment can be used in outdoor units of air conditioners with compact internal space, such as integrated kitchen air conditioner outdoor units.

[0047] The vibration damping component 100 may include a connector 10, which may be a rod-shaped structure. In some embodiments, the connector 10 is fixedly connected to the housing or other fixed structures. In some embodiments, the connector 10 does not need to be connected to other structures.

[0048] The vibration damping component 100 may include a rotating component 20. One end of the rotating component 20 is fixedly connected to the compressor pipeline. When the compressor pipeline is fixed, it is supported by the rotating component 20, which prevents the compressor pipeline from generating excessive free swing or resonance under mechanical vibration and airflow pulse. The movement of the compressor pipeline is restricted, which can reduce the vibration amplitude.

[0049] The other end of the rotating component 20 is connected to the connector 10. The rotating component 20 can rotate relative to the connector 10. In this way, the rotating component 20 can drive the compressor pipeline to rotate relative to the connector 10. The contact surfaces of the rotating component 20 and the connector 10 rub against each other. The relative motion between the contact surfaces generates heat, thereby converting the mechanical energy of the compressor pipeline vibration into heat energy. The heat is dissipated into the environment, resulting in energy loss.

[0050] Compared to using elastic components to absorb the vibration energy of compressor piping, where the mechanical energy of compressor piping vibration is converted into elastic potential energy and the elastic component only stores the energy, with most of the elastic potential energy eventually being converted back into mechanical energy, leaving the majority of the energy within the system, this method of energy loss through rotational friction minimizes the vibration amplitude of the compressor piping, preventing collisions caused by large vibration amplitudes, reducing abnormal noise, and improving the reliability and service life of the compressor piping.

[0051] Therefore, by connecting the rotating assembly 20 to the compressor pipeline and the connector 10 respectively, the rotating assembly 20 drives the compressor pipeline to rotate relative to the connector 10. Friction occurs between the contact surfaces of the rotating assembly 20 and the connector 10, and the relative motion between the contact surfaces generates heat, thereby converting the mechanical energy of the compressor pipeline vibration into heat energy. The heat is dissipated into the environment, resulting in energy loss. This can minimize the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, avoid collisions caused by large vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, reduce abnormal noise, and improve the reliability and service life of the compressor pipeline.

[0052] Reference 4- Figure 8 As shown, the rotating assembly 20 includes a first fixing member 21, which forms a first receiving cavity 22. A connecting member 10 passes through the first receiving cavity 22, and a first limiting part 23 is provided inside the first receiving cavity 22. The connecting member 10 also has a second limiting part 11, with the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11 engaging in a limiting fit. This limiting fit between the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11 not only ensures accurate installation and positioning of the first fixing member 21 but also enhances the connection stability between the connecting member 10 and the first fixing member 21, preventing the rotating assembly 20 from sliding or detaching when rotating relative to the connecting member 10.

[0053] Specifically, the first fixing member 21 can be an annular shape, and the connecting member 10 can be a round rod. A cylindrical receiving cavity is formed inside the first fixing member 21, and the connecting rod passes through the first receiving cavity 22 and engages with the first fixing member 21. At least one of the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11 can be a protrusion. That is, the first limiting part 23 can be a protrusion, the second limiting part 11 can be a protrusion, or both the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11 can be protrusions. The unevenness of the outer surface of the protrusion can be used to achieve the engagement and limiting function between the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11.

[0054] The first limiting part 23 can be a protrusion, and the second limiting part 11 can be stepped. For example, a portion of the outer peripheral wall of the connector 10 can be formed as a step, with a stepped surface. The protrusion in the first receiving cavity 22 can abut against the stepped surface, thus fixing the first fixing member 21 at the stepped position of the connector 10. In this way, not only can the position of the first fixing member 21 be defined, but the step formed by the outer peripheral wall of the connector 10 can also be fully utilized without the need to set other limiting structures on the connector 10. This reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the connector 10, makes the structure simple and easy to implement, saves materials, and makes the structure more compact.

[0055] One of the first limiting part 23 and the second limiting part 11 can be a protrusion, and the other can be a groove adapted to the protrusion. It can be understood that the first limiting part 23 can be a protrusion and the second limiting part 11 can be a groove, and the protrusion can be confined within the groove, or the first limiting part 23 can be a groove and the second limiting part 11 can be a protrusion, and the protrusion can be confined within the groove, so that the first fixing member 21 is fixed on the connecting member 10, which has a simple structure and high connection stability.

[0056] Furthermore, the protrusion can be square and extends along the circumferential direction of the connector 10 or the first receiving cavity 22. The thickness of the protrusion can be less than or greater than the thickness of the first fixing member 21.

[0057] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the first limiting part 23 can be a protrusion, and the second limiting part 11 can be a groove. The first limiting part 23 fits within the second limiting part 11 to connect the first fixing member 21 to the connecting member 10. The groove can extend along the outer peripheral wall of the connecting member 10 and completely surround it, or it can partially surround it. The protrusion can slide inside the groove. It is understood that the protrusion can slide circumferentially along the connecting member 10, but cannot slide axially. This ensures that the rotating assembly 20 can rotate relative to the connecting rod while preventing the rotating assembly 20 from sliding on or detaching from the connecting member 10, thus avoiding collisions between compressor pipes and improving the reliability of the vibration damping assembly 100.

[0058] Additionally, the connector 10 is provided with two baffles 12, which are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the connector 10 and are located in the groove. In this way, the two baffles 12 can limit the range of sliding of the protrusion in the groove, so that the rotating component 20 can rotate relative to the connecting rod within a certain range, thereby preventing excessive shaking of the compressor pipeline.

[0059] Reference Figures 6-7As shown, the connector 10 is provided with a guide portion 13, which extends from one end of the connector 10 and communicates with the second limiting portion 11. The guide portion 13 guides and cooperates with the first limiting portion 23. Specifically, the guide portion 13 can be a guide groove, and the first limiting portion 23 can be a protrusion. The guide portion 13 extends from one end of the connecting rod to communicate with the second limiting portion 11, so that the first limiting portion 23 can slide along the guide portion 13 and cooperate with the second limiting portion 11, improving the ease of assembly of the vibration damping component 100.

[0060] Reference Figures 9-10 As shown, the rotating assembly 20 may include a second fixing member 24, which has a second receiving cavity 25. A compressor pipeline passes through the second receiving cavity 25, and the second receiving cavity 25 has an opening 26 that extends through the second fixing member 24 in the radial direction of the compressor pipeline. Specifically, the second fixing member 24 may be an annular ring, and the opening 26 may be provided on the second fixing member 24. One end of the opening 26 may extend into the second receiving cavity 25, and the other end of the opening 26 may penetrate the peripheral wall of the second fixing member 24. The length direction of the opening 26 extends along the radial direction of the second receiving cavity 25, so that the compressor pipeline can be assembled into the second receiving cavity 25 through the opening 26, making assembly more convenient.

[0061] Furthermore, the second fastener 24 can be made of an elastic material, which can absorb the vibration energy of the compressor pipeline when fixed to the compressor management, reduce the vibration amplitude, and improve the vibration reduction effect of the vibration damping component 100. Additionally, the second fastener 24 can be made of rubber.

[0062] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the rotating assembly 20 may include a first connecting rod 27. One end of the first connecting rod 27 is fixedly connected to the first fixing member 21. When the first fixing member 21 rotates relative to the connecting member 10, it drives the first connecting rod 27 to rotate.

[0063] The rotating assembly 20 may include a second connecting rod 28, one end of which is connected to the second fixing member 24, and the other end is connected to the first connecting rod 27. Thus, when the first fixing member 21 rotates relative to the connecting member 10, it can drive the first connecting rod 27, the second connecting rod 28, the second fixing member 24, and the compressor piping to rotate, thereby converting the mechanical energy of the compressor piping vibration into heat energy, achieving energy loss, and reducing the vibration amplitude.

[0064] The second connecting rod 28 is slidable relative to the first connecting rod 27 to generate a damping force. The damping force can significantly reduce the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, thereby reducing the noise generated by vibration and improving the stability and reliability of the compressor.

[0065] Furthermore, a third limiting part 271 is provided on the first connecting rod 27, and a fourth limiting part 282 is provided on the second connecting rod 28. Through the limiting cooperation of the third limiting part 271 and the fourth limiting part 282, the second connecting rod can be prevented from dislodging from the first connecting rod 27. For details, refer to... Figure 3 As shown, the third limiting part 271 can be a card slot, and the fourth limiting part 282 can be a buckle.

[0066] Reference Figures 3-4 As shown, the rotating assembly 20 may include an elastic element 29, which is sandwiched between the first connecting rod 27 and the second connecting rod 28. The elastic element 29 absorbs the vibration energy of the compressor pipeline, further reducing the vibration amplitude. The elastic element 29 may be a spring.

[0067] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the rotating assembly 20 may include a damping element sandwiched between the first connecting rod 27 and the second connecting rod 28. The damping element can also buffer vibration energy and improve vibration reduction. The damping element can be a friction damper, which uses the principle of dissipating vibration energy through friction to slow down vibration; a liquid damper, which uses the viscous resistance of a fluid to slow down vibration; a magnetorheological damper, which achieves a damping effect by controlling the flow of a magnetorheological fluid in a liquid; or a hydraulic damper, which uses the principle of fluid compression, adding oil or air pressure to the fluid to convert vibration energy into heat energy.

[0068] Reference Figure 4 As shown, one end of the second connecting rod 28 is provided with a rotating part 281, which is rotatably connected to the second fixing member 24. Specifically, the rotating part 281 can be a ball joint structure. Since the compressor pipelines are not necessarily parallel, in order to meet various conditions, the rotating part 281 is rotatably connected to the second fixing member 24, and the second fixing member 24 can rotate at any angle, which is suitable for various pipeline conditions.

[0069] Reference Figure 1 As shown, there are at least two rotating components 20, and the rotation angles of the at least two rotating components 20 relative to the connecting member 10 are staggered. Specifically, in this embodiment, there are two rotating components 20, which are respectively connected to two connecting members 10 and form a whole through the connecting members 10. At this time, the connecting members 10 may not be connected to other structures. The mutual restraint of the rotating components 20 can form a balance, or they can be fixed to the housing or other fixed structures. When assembling the two connecting members 10, they can be staggered to make the rotation angles of the rotating components 20 different, so as to avoid collisions between the compressor pipelines.

[0070] This utility model also proposes an outdoor unit for an air conditioner, comprising: a casing, a compressor, compressor piping, and a vibration damping assembly 100.

[0071] The compressor is housed within a casing. It draws in low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and compresses it, increasing its temperature and pressure to create a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. Compressor piping connects to the compressor and is used to transport the refrigerant. Thus, the high-temperature, high-pressure gas from the compressor is delivered through the compressor piping to the heat exchanger and the indoor unit of the air conditioner, completing the cooling, heating, or dehumidifying functions of the air conditioning system.

[0072] During operation, compressors generate mechanical vibrations and airflow pulses, especially when the refrigerant flows on the high-pressure side. The rapid flow of gas and pressure changes can cause vibrations in the compressor piping. For outdoor units of air conditioners with limited internal space, compressor piping vibrations can easily cause adjacent compressor piping to collide, resulting in abnormal noises and reduced piping reliability.

[0073] Therefore, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner may also include a vibration damping component 100. The vibration damping component 100 is disposed inside the casing and connected to the compressor piping. The vibration damping component 100 reduces the vibration of the compressor piping, avoids pipe collision problems, and improves the service life and reliability of the compressor piping. The vibration damping component 100 in this embodiment can be used in outdoor units of air conditioners with compact internal space, such as integrated kitchen air conditioner outdoor units.

[0074] The vibration damping component 100 may include a connector 10, which may be a rod-shaped structure. In some embodiments, the connector 10 is fixedly connected to the housing or other fixed structures. In some embodiments, the connector 10 does not need to be connected to other structures.

[0075] The vibration damping component 100 may include a rotating component 20. One end of the rotating component 20 is fixedly connected to the compressor pipeline. When the compressor pipeline is fixed, it is supported by the rotating component 20, which prevents the compressor pipeline from generating excessive free swing or resonance under mechanical vibration and airflow pulse. The movement of the compressor pipeline is restricted, which can reduce the vibration amplitude.

[0076] The other end of the rotating assembly 20 is connected to the connector 10. The rotating assembly 20 is rotatable relative to the connector 10, and a damping force can be generated inside the rotating assembly 20. In this way, the rotating assembly 20 can drive the compressor pipeline to rotate relative to the connector 10. Friction occurs between the contact surfaces of the rotating assembly 20 and the connector 10, and the relative motion between the contact surfaces generates heat, thereby converting the mechanical energy of the compressor pipeline vibration into heat energy. The heat is dissipated into the environment, resulting in energy loss.

[0077] The damping force generated inside the rotating assembly 20 can significantly reduce the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, thereby reducing noise caused by vibration and improving the stability and reliability of the compressor. Thus, by fixing the compressor pipeline at one end of the rotating assembly 20, limiting the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline, and then significantly reducing the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline through the damping force generated inside the rotating assembly 20, and finally reducing energy loss through rotational friction, the vibration amplitude of the compressor pipeline can be minimized, preventing collisions caused by large vibration amplitudes, reducing abnormal noise, and improving the reliability and service life of the compressor pipeline.
