Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of air conditioning maintenance equipment, specifically an air conditioning refrigerant charging device. Background Technology
[0002] With the improvement of living standards, household air conditioners have become an essential appliance in modern families. Their outdoor units are generally suspended and installed on the exterior walls of buildings to facilitate heat dissipation and save indoor space. However, when air conditioners need to be recharged due to refrigerant leaks or other reasons, this high-altitude suspended installation method brings many challenges.
[0003] In existing technologies, technicians must manually connect and tighten the refrigerant charging pipe to the inlet of the air conditioner's outdoor unit at high altitudes. Due to the complex environment of high-altitude operations, operators face limited space, high difficulty, and are prone to loose connections at the inlet, leading to refrigerant leaks or inefficient charging. Furthermore, the complex and variable airflow at high altitudes can cause loosening of the connection, even with an initial tight connection, due to strong airflow, further affecting the refrigerant charging effect and potentially posing safety hazards. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a refrigerant charging device that can assist in securing the pipe, solving the problems of unstable connections and inconvenient operation during refrigerant charging at high altitudes.

[0008] The fixing ring is slidably mounted on the matching head. The fixing ring has a threaded hole, which is threadedly connected to the fastening bolt. The two sides of the fixing ring are respectively connected to the corresponding bent rods through torsion springs. The two bent rods are symmetrically arranged, and each bent rod is hinged to the corresponding clamping plate. An anti-slip toothed rack is fixed to the adjacent ends of the two clamping plates.
[0009] The clamping mechanism includes a sleeve plate, a telescopic plate, a spring, a first fixed clamp, a second fixed clamp, and two second anti-slip toothed racks;

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] 1. Flexible adaptation to different equipment: The inlet pipe and the four-way pipe are detachably connected, and the appropriate inlet pipe can be replaced according to the interface specifications of the refrigerant storage tank; the outlet pipe and the matching head are also detachably connected, and the appropriate matching head can be replaced according to the injection port specifications of the air conditioner outdoor unit, so that the air conditioner refrigerant charging device can be adapted to a variety of different specifications of equipment and interfaces, greatly improving the versatility and practicality of the device.
[0013] 2. Excellent stability and fixation effect:

In addition, the anti-slip toothed racks set at the adjacent ends of the fixed clamps can increase the friction of the contact surface and effectively prevent the device from shifting during operation.
[0015] Suction cup assistance: If the surface material of the air conditioner outdoor unit is suitable for adsorption, the suction cup, which is detachably connected to the slider, can be adsorbed onto the air conditioner outdoor unit to further enhance the fixing effect; if the surface material is not suitable for adsorption, the suction cup can be removed, and the device can be fixed by relying solely on the clamping mechanism, which improves the applicability of the device to outdoor unit surfaces of different materials.
[0016] Stabilizing Mechanism: During the refrigerant charging stage, the bent rod of the stabilizing mechanism, under the elastic force of the torsion spring, drives the anti-slip rack on the clamp plate to fit tightly with the injection port, initially preventing the connection from loosening. Rotating the fastening bolt firmly fixes the fixing ring and the matching head, further stabilizing the position of the bent rod and the clamp plate, significantly increasing the stability of the connection between the matching head and the injection port, and ensuring that there will be no leakage or loosening of the connection during the refrigerant charging process.
[0017] 3. Precise refrigerant charging: A pressure gauge is installed at the upper end of the four-way pipe to display the internal pressure value in real time. Operators can judge the refrigerant charging status based on the pressure value. By rotating the valve stem of the manual shut-off valve at the right end of the four-way pipe, the opening and closing status and opening degree of the valve can be precisely controlled, thereby accurately adjusting the charging speed and amount of refrigerant, ensuring the safety and accuracy of the entire charging process.
[0018] In summary, this utility model, through its unique structural design, achieves flexible adaptation to different equipment, stable fixation, and precise refrigerant charging. These beneficial effects not only improve the versatility and practicality of the device but also ensure the safety and accuracy of the charging process, providing users with a more convenient and efficient air conditioning refrigerant charging solution, and thus has a high market potential.

[0027] The fixing ring 6 is slidably mounted on the matching head 5. The fixing ring 6 has a threaded hole, which is threadedly connected to the fastening bolt 10. The two sides of the fixing ring 6 are respectively connected to the corresponding bent rods 7 through torsion springs. The two bent rods 7 are symmetrically arranged, and each bent rod 7 is hinged to the corresponding clamping plate 8. Anti-slip toothed racks 9 are fixed at the adjacent ends of the two clamping plates 8.
[0028] The clamping mechanism includes a sleeve plate 13, a telescopic plate 14, a spring 15, a first fixed clamp 16, a second fixed clamp 17, and two second anti-slip toothed racks 18.
[0029] The slider 11 is provided with a sliding hole, the sleeve 13 is slidably connected to the sliding hole, one end of the sleeve 13 is provided with a sliding groove, and the other end of the sleeve 13 is fixedly connected to the first fixing clamp 16.

The spring 15 is provided in the sliding groove, one end of the spring 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sliding groove, and the other end of the spring 15 is fixedly connected to the telescopic plate 14.
[0030] The air conditioning refrigerant charging device, through the coordinated operation of its various components, achieves flexible adaptation to different equipment, stable fixation, and precise refrigerant charging. Its specific working principle is as follows:
[0031] 1. Preparation stage: The feed pipe 3 and the four-way pipe 1 can be detachably connected by threaded connection or quick coupling. Select the appropriate feed pipe 3 according to the interface specifications of the refrigerant liquid tank. When using threaded connection, a sealing ring needs to be installed between the external thread at the end of the feed pipe 3 and the internal thread at the left end of the four-way pipe 1. Tighten by rotating. The tightening effect of the thread and the sealing performance of the sealing ring will double ensure the sealing of the connection. Connect one end of the feed pipe 3 to the liquid tank so that the refrigerant can flow smoothly into the four-way pipe 1. During this process, the manual shut-off valve at the right end of the four-way pipe 1 should be kept closed to effectively prevent refrigerant leakage.
[0032] II. Fixing Stage: First, clean one side of the outdoor unit 19 of the household air conditioner to remove dust. When operating the clamping mechanism, manually pull the second fixing clamp 17, causing the connected telescopic plate 14 to slide within the rectangular groove of the sleeve plate 13, thereby stretching the spring 15 and increasing the distance between the second fixing clamp 17 and the first fixing clamp 16. Place this clamping mechanism at both ends of the outdoor unit 19. When the first fixing clamp 16 is tightly attached to one end face of the outdoor unit 19 and the second fixing clamp 17 is attached to the other end face, release the second fixing clamp 17. At this time, the spring 15 returns to its original position using its elasticity, pulling the telescopic plate 14 to make the second fixing clamp 17 and the first fixing clamp 16 close together. 6. Securely clamp the outdoor unit 19 of the air conditioner. The two anti-slip toothed strips 18 set at the adjacent ends of the fixing clip 16 and the fixing clip 17 increase the friction of the contact surface and effectively prevent the device from shifting during operation. If the surface material of the outdoor unit 19 is suitable for adsorption, such as metal, the suction cup 12, which is detachably connected to the slider 11, can be adsorbed onto the outdoor unit 19 by means of snap-fit connection to further enhance the fixing effect. If the surface material is not suitable for adsorption, such as a rough plastic shell, the suction cup 12 can be removed and the device can be fixed by the clamping mechanism alone, thereby improving the applicability of the device to outdoor unit surfaces of different materials.
[0033] III. Refrigerant Charging Stage: Open the refrigerant injection port of the outdoor unit 19. The discharge pipe 4 and the matching head 5 can be detachably connected by threaded connection or plug-in connection. Select the appropriate matching head 5 according to the specifications of the outdoor unit's injection port and accurately connect the matching head 5 to the injection port. Then, operate the stabilizing mechanism to slide the fixing ring 6 onto the matching head 5 and adjust it to the appropriate position. At this time, under the action of the torsion spring, the bent rod 7 drives the anti-slip rack 9 on the clamping plate 8 to fit tightly with the injection port, initially preventing the connection from loosening. Next, rotate the fastening bolt 10 so that it screws into the threaded hole of the fixing ring 6. Through the fastening action of the fastening bolt 10 on the fixing ring 6, the fixing ring 6 and the matching head 5 are firmly fixed, further stabilizing the position of the bent rod 7 and the clamping plate 8, significantly increasing the stability of the connection between the matching head 5 and the injection port, and ensuring that there will be no leakage or loosening of the connection during the refrigerant charging process.
[0034] IV. Refrigerant Charging Control Stage: During the charging process, the pressure gauge 2, which is connected to the upper end of the four-way pipe 1 by a thread and fixed with a sealing gasket, displays the internal pressure value in real time. The operator judges the refrigerant charging status based on the pressure value and controls the opening and closing status and opening degree of the valve by rotating the valve stem of the manual shut-off valve at the right end of the four-way pipe 1, thereby accurately adjusting the charging speed and amount of refrigerant to ensure the safety and accuracy of the entire charging process.
