Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigerator refrigeration equipment technology, specifically to an exhaust pipe bracket. Background Technology

[0002] In existing refrigerator compressor exhaust pipe designs, the exhaust pipe is generally installed inside a water collection box, and its surface is protected by anti-corrosion treatment or heat shrink tubing.

[0003] Because the exhaust pipe of a refrigerator operates at high temperatures and is constantly immersed in defrost water in the water collection box, the heat shrink tubing is prone to aging and cracking, and the anti-corrosion coating will gradually fail. Once the protective measures fail, the exhaust pipe will come into direct contact with the water, causing serious corrosion problems and leading to the risk of refrigerant leakage. This not only affects the refrigerator's cooling effect but also poses a safety hazard. Therefore, an innovative structural design is urgently needed to solve the corrosion problem of the exhaust pipe caused by immersion while ensuring effective heat transfer.

[0004] When a refrigerator is running, the exhaust pipe is at a high temperature and is constantly immersed in defrost water in the water collection box. This causes the heat shrink tubing to age and crack, leading to the failure of the anti-corrosion coating. As a result, the exhaust pipe comes into direct contact with the water, causing serious corrosion problems. This greatly increases the risk of refrigerant leakage, affects the refrigerator's cooling effect, and also poses a safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an exhaust pipe bracket, which solves the problem that when the exhaust pipe is in a high-temperature state during refrigerator operation, it is constantly immersed in defrost water in the water collection box, which makes the heat shrink tubing prone to aging and cracking, leading to the failure of the anti-corrosion coating. This causes the exhaust pipe to come into direct contact with the water, resulting in serious corrosion problems, which greatly increases the risk of refrigerant leakage, affects the refrigerator's cooling effect, and also poses safety hazards.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an exhaust pipe bracket, comprising a U-shaped bracket, wherein an exhaust pipe is inserted into the inner side of the U-shaped bracket, and a water collection box is snapped onto the outer side of the U-shaped bracket; the U-shaped bracket includes:

[0007] An arc-shaped clip, with its opening facing downwards, is used to snap onto an exhaust pipe;

[0008] A support member, which is connected to the outside of the arc-shaped clamp and is used to support the exhaust pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the arc-shaped clip has clamping ends connected to both ends, the clamping ends being located inside the support and below the exhaust pipe, for supporting the exhaust pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the support member is connected to a fixing toe, which is located on the outside of the support member.

[0011] Preferably, the exhaust pipe is provided with a heat dissipation section, which is inserted into the inner side of the arc-shaped clip, and the two ends of the heat dissipation section are connected to an air inlet and an air outlet.

[0012] Preferably, the water collection box is provided with a box side wall, the bottom of which is connected to a box bottom, and the middle area of ​​the box bottom protrudes upward.

[0013] Preferably, the upward-protruding part of the bottom of the box forms a water collection groove with the side wall of the box, and a buckle is provided in the water collection groove. The buckle is set in an inverted "L" shape and corresponds to the fixing toe, and is engaged above the fixing toe.

[0014] This utility model discloses an exhaust pipe bracket, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The exhaust pipe is raised above the water surface by using an aluminum "U"-shaped bracket, which completely changes the traditional structure of the exhaust pipe being submerged in water. This avoids the corrosion problem caused by long-term contact with water, effectively prevents refrigerant leakage, and improves the safety and reliability of the refrigerator's operation.

[0016] By utilizing the excellent thermal conductivity of aluminum, the heat from the exhaust pipe is effectively transferred to the defrost water, thereby heating and evaporating the defrost water. This not only solves the problem of water accumulation but also makes full use of the heat emitted by the exhaust pipe, thus improving energy efficiency.

[0017] By transferring the corrosion risk to the surface of the aluminum bracket and further enhancing its durability through anti-corrosion treatment, the main body of the exhaust pipe is protected from corrosion, significantly extending the service life of the refrigerator compressor exhaust pipe and related components, and reducing equipment maintenance costs.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] This application provides an exhaust pipe bracket, which solves the problem that when the refrigerator is running, the exhaust pipe is at a high temperature and is constantly immersed in defrost water in the water collection box. This causes the heat shrink tubing to age and crack, leading to the failure of the anti-corrosion coating. As a result, the exhaust pipe comes into direct contact with the water, causing serious corrosion. This greatly increases the risk of refrigerant leakage, affects the refrigerator's cooling effect, and poses a safety hazard. The bracket isolates the exhaust pipe from the water and uses heat conduction to eliminate the corrosion and leakage risks of the exhaust pipe.

[0028] This utility model discloses an exhaust pipe bracket.

[0029] Example 1: According to the appendix Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a "U"-shaped bracket 1, an exhaust pipe 2 is inserted into the inner side of the "U"-shaped bracket 1, and a water collection box 3 is snapped onto the outer side of the "U"-shaped bracket 1. The "U"-shaped bracket 1 includes an arc-shaped clip 11 and a support member 12. The arc-shaped clip 11 has its opening facing downward and is used to snap onto the exhaust pipe 2. The support member 12 is connected to the outer side of the arc-shaped clip 11 and is used to support the exhaust pipe 2.

[0030] By using an aluminum "U"-shaped bracket 1 to elevate the exhaust pipe 2 above the water surface, the traditional structure of the exhaust pipe 2 being submerged in water is completely changed. This avoids corrosion problems caused by long-term contact with water, effectively prevents refrigerant leakage, and improves the safety and reliability of refrigerator operation. Utilizing the excellent thermal conductivity of aluminum, the heat from the exhaust pipe 2 is effectively transferred to the defrost water, achieving heating and evaporation of the defrost water. This solves the problem of water accumulation and makes full use of the heat emitted by the exhaust pipe 2, improving energy efficiency. The corrosion risk is transferred to the surface of the "U"-shaped bracket 1, and the durability of the "U"-shaped bracket 1 is further enhanced through anti-corrosion treatment. At the same time, it ensures that the main body of the exhaust pipe 2 is not corroded, significantly extending the service life of the refrigerator compressor exhaust pipe 2 and related components, and reducing equipment maintenance costs.

[0031] Furthermore, the arc-shaped clip 11 has clamping ends 111 connected to both ends. The clamping ends 111 are located inside the support 12 and below the exhaust pipe 2, and are used to support the exhaust pipe 2. By setting the clamping ends 111, the fixing effect on the exhaust pipe 2 can be further enhanced, preventing the exhaust pipe 2 from shaking inside the bracket and improving stability.

[0032] Furthermore, a fixing toe 121 is connected to the bottom of the support member 12, and the fixing toe 121 is located on the outside of the support member 12. The fixing toe 121 provides a connection point for the snap-fit ​​of the water collection box 3, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the water collection box 3 and the "U"-shaped bracket 1.

[0033] Specifically disclosed, the exhaust pipe 2 is provided with a heat dissipation section 22, which is inserted into the inner side of the arc-shaped clip 11, and the two ends of the heat dissipation section 22 are connected to an air inlet 21 and an air outlet 23.

[0034] Specifically, the water collection box 3 is provided with a side wall 31, and the bottom of the side wall 31 is connected to a bottom 32. The middle area of ​​the bottom 32 protrudes upward. The upward protrusion of the middle area of ​​the bottom 32 facilitates the guidance of condensate to the edge of the bottom 32, making it easier to collect the water.

[0035] Example 2: According to the appendix Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a "U"-shaped bracket 1, an exhaust pipe 2 is inserted into the inner side of the "U"-shaped bracket 1, and a water collection box 3 is snapped onto the outer side of the "U"-shaped bracket 1. The "U"-shaped bracket 1 includes an arc-shaped clip 11 and a support member 12. The arc-shaped clip 11 has its opening facing downward and is used to snap onto the exhaust pipe 2. The support member 12 is connected to the outer side of the arc-shaped clip 11 and is used to support the exhaust pipe 2.

[0036] It is particularly important to emphasize that the upward-protruding portion of the bottom 32 of the box forms a water collection groove 33 with the side wall 31 of the box. A buckle 34 is provided within the water collection groove 33. The buckle 34 is shaped like an inverted "L" and corresponds to the fixing toe 121, engaging above the fixing toe 121. Through the engaging action of the buckle 34 and the fixing toe 121, a stable connection is achieved between the water collection box 3 and the "U"-shaped bracket 1, while also facilitating the disassembly and cleaning of the water collection box 3.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
