Description

A compressor fixing structure for an integrated air conditioner Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of integrated air conditioners, specifically to a compressor fixing structure for an integrated air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] An all-in-one air conditioner is a device used to regulate temperature. This device is suitable for equipment rooms of various mobile communication operators, research institutes, hospitals, enterprises and other units. With the continuous development of technology, the size of these all-in-one air conditioners is gradually shrinking, making them no longer limited to commercial use. Some all-in-one air conditioners for home use have also begun to appear on the market.

[0003] The aforementioned integrated household air conditioners are mainly used in smaller spaces such as kitchens and bathrooms. Air conditioners used in kitchens are mainly used for cooling in the summer, and their main usage time is often less than half a year. Therefore, compared with fixed, non-removable wall-mounted air conditioners, integrated air conditioners are more flexible and can be moved according to the user's needs.

[0004] Chinese patent ZL202420881119.3 discloses: "An integrated air conditioner, comprising: a shell, the shell forming an indoor air intake zone and an indoor air supply zone; a fan volute, the fan volute being disposed within the installation space enclosed by the shell, the fan volute forming a receiving space, an air inlet zone, and an air outlet zone, the receiving space for accommodating an indoor fan, the air inlet zone and the air outlet zone being connected through the receiving space so that airflow entering through the indoor air intake zone and the air inlet zone is guided by the fan volute to the air outlet zone and the indoor air supply zone; and a liquid storage container, the liquid storage container for storing humidifying liquid, the liquid storage container being disposed on the bottom side of the fan volute, and the liquid inlet of the liquid storage container being connected to the receiving space so that liquid injected from the indoor air supply zone is guided by the fan volute to the liquid storage container. When it is necessary to replenish water to the liquid storage container, no additional operation of the container is required; water can be added directly from the indoor air supply zone to the shell, greatly facilitating the replenishment operation of the liquid storage container."

[0005] When considering the solutions in the aforementioned patents, all existing integrated air conditioners on the market have a problem: the compressor inside these integrated air conditioners is generally only fixed to the inner wall of the casing by bolts. However, with the continuous development of technology, the power of the compressor inside these air conditioners is also constantly increasing, which in turn leads to increased vibration of the compressor. Relying solely on the bolts between the compressor and the inner wall of the casing will cause the compressor to vibrate too much. This will not only cause excessive noise during the operation of the air conditioner, but also make the compressor itself and other components inside the air conditioner more susceptible to damage due to vibration. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the simple fixing structure of the compressor in the existing integrated air conditioner, which leads to excessive vibration during operation, this utility model provides a compressor fixing structure for an integrated air conditioner.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a compressor fixing structure for an integrated air conditioner, comprising:

[0008] The housing has an internal cavity;

[0009] A refrigeration assembly, which includes at least a compressor connected within a accommodating cavity;

[0010] An end fixing structure and a circumferential fixing structure are also provided between the compressor and the inner wall of the housing, and the compressor is connected to the accommodating cavity through the end fixing structure and the circumferential fixing structure.

[0011] The end fixing structure is located between the bottom end of the compressor and the bottom surface of the inner wall of the housing;

[0012] The circumferential fixing structure also includes a fixing clamp and a fixing column. The fixing clamp is sleeved and connected to the circumference of the compressor. One end of the fixing column is connected to the fixing clamp, and the other end is connected to the bottom surface of the inner wall of the housing.

[0013] Furthermore, the fixed columns are provided in three rows, and the three fixed columns are arranged in a triangular pattern around the compressor.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing clamp includes a main body and an outer edge formed by folding outward from the lower side of the main body. Several reinforcing ribs are connected between the outer side of the main body and the upper side of the outer edge. The reinforcing ribs are arranged in a circular array around the axis of the fixing clamp.

[0015] Furthermore, the fixed column includes a straight plate portion and four folded edges formed by folding the four sides of the straight plate portion to one side. The fixing clamp is connected to the folded edges at the upper end of the fixed column, and the housing is connected to the folded edges at the lower end of the fixed column.

[0016] Furthermore, the fixed clamp is provided with several fixed seats protruding outward on its periphery, and the fixed column abuts against the lower side of the fixed seat. Several upper bolt holes are provided through the fixed seat, and several upper threaded holes are provided at the upper end of the fixed column. Thus, the upper bolts pass through the upper bolt holes and are tightened into the upper threaded holes to achieve a fixed fit between the fixed seat and the fixed column.

[0017] Furthermore, the housing has several bolt holes, and the lower end of the fixed column has several threaded holes, so that the bolts can pass through the bolt holes from the outside of the housing and be tightened into the threaded holes to achieve a fixed fit between the fixed column and the housing.

[0018] Furthermore, the end fixing structure also includes several mounting brackets disposed at the bottom of the compressor. Several mounting posts are protruding from the mounting brackets toward the housing. Fastening holes are opened on the mounting posts. A through hole is opened through the housing, so that fasteners pass through the through hole and are fixedly fitted into the fastening hole to achieve a fixed fit between the mounting brackets and the housing.

[0019] Furthermore, shock-absorbing pads are provided between the fixing clamp and the fixing column, between the fixing column and the housing, and between the mounting bracket and the housing.

[0020] Furthermore, the housing includes a rear shell and a front cover. The rear shell also includes a top plate, a bottom plate, and side panels. The end fixing structure and the circumferential fixing structure are both disposed between the compressor and the bottom plate, thereby fixing the compressor to the bottom plate.

[0021] Furthermore, a partition is provided inside the rear shell, which divides the accommodating cavity into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The refrigeration assembly also includes an evaporator and a heat exchanger. The evaporator and heat exchanger are both located in the upper chamber, while the compressor is located separately in the lower chamber.

[0022] The compressor mounting and fixing method of this utility model:

[0023] During compressor installation, firstly, the three fixed columns can be fixed to the base plate of the rear housing using lower bolts. Before installing the fixed columns, the shock-absorbing pads need to be placed between the fixed columns and the base plate. Next, the fixing clamps can be fitted onto the compressor. Then, the entire compressor, along with the fixing clamps, is moved above the fixed columns, and the fixing seats on the fixing clamps are aligned with the upper end of the fixed columns. The shock-absorbing pads are also placed on the top of the fixed columns and the upper side of the base plate. Then, the compressor is placed on the base plate, so that the mounting bracket on the lower side of the compressor abuts against the base plate, with the shock-absorbing pads sandwiched between them. The fixing seats also abut against the upper end of the fixed columns, with the shock-absorbing pads sandwiched between them. Finally, the connection between the fixed columns and the fixing clamps is completed using upper bolts, and the connection between the base plate and the mounting bracket is completed using fasteners.

[0024] The shock absorption process of this utility model:

[0025] When the compressor starts, the end fixing structure between the compressor and the housing can suppress the axial movement of the compressor, and the circumferential fixing structure between the compressor and the housing can suppress the circumferential movement of the compressor, thereby suppressing the vibration of the compressor.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0027] 1. An end fixing structure and a circumferential fixing structure are provided between the compressor and the housing. This not only suppresses the axial runout of the compressor through the end fixing structure, but also suppresses the circumferential offset of the compressor through the circumferential fixing structure. This effectively reduces the vibration amplitude of the compressor, thereby effectively reducing noise and preventing damage to the internal components of the air conditioner.

[0028] 2. Arranging the fixed columns in a triangular pattern makes the connection of the circumferential fixing structure more secure, thereby strengthening the suppression of circumferential movement of the compressor;

[0029] 3. The fixing clamp is folded to form an outer edge and is also provided with reinforcing ribs, while the fixing column is folded to form a folded edge, thereby improving the strength of the fixing clamp and the fixing column and further improving the stability of the circumferential fixing structure.

[0030] 4. The end fixing structure is set as a mounting bracket on the compressor. The mounting bracket can increase the contact area between the compressor and the housing, thereby enhancing the suppression of axial movement of the compressor.

[0031] 5. Multiple sets of shock-absorbing rubber pads are also provided, which can not only avoid the noise generated when the end fixing structure and the circumferential fixing structure are in operation, but also reduce the impact damage to the end fixing structure and the circumferential fixing structure during use.

The fixed clamp 6 is connected to the folded edges 12 at the upper end of the fixed column 7, and the housing 1 is connected to the folded edges 12 at the lower end of the fixed column 7.

[0047] As shown in Figures 4 to 7, in this embodiment, the fixing clamp 6 has several fixing seats 13 protruding outwards on its periphery. The fixing column 7 abuts against the lower side of the fixing seat 13. Several upper bolt holes 14 are provided through the fixing seat 13, and several upper threaded holes 15 are provided at the upper end of the fixing column 7.

[0054] During the installation of compressor 3, the three fixed columns 7 can first be fixed to the base plate 29 of the rear housing 26 using lower bolts 19. Before installing the fixed columns 7, the shock-absorbing rubber pads 25 need to be placed between the fixed columns 7 and the base plate 29.
