Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner outdoor unit defrosting technology, specifically a defrosting device for outdoor units of multi-split air conditioning systems. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-split air conditioning systems are one of the most widely used air conditioning systems in modern buildings. They are characterized by one outdoor unit connected to multiple indoor units through pipes, and each indoor unit can operate, stop, or even be controlled in groups or centrally.

[0003] For example, the defrosting device for the outdoor unit of a multi-split air conditioning system disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221897879U has the following key technical features: a mounting block with a top groove on its top surface, a fan fixedly installed inside the top groove, and side grooves on the left and right sides of the mounting block connected to the top groove. In use, the mounting block can be initially fixed using suction cups. Then, by pulling the side plates, springs extend and the side plates are snapped into place on both sides of the outdoor unit. The device is installed using the spring tension. Air is drawn into the inner cavity through a telescopic shaft by turning on the fan, and then heated by heating wires to blow out hot air for defrosting the outdoor unit. A release hole is provided to cooperate with the nozzle to spray heated air, allowing the hot air to be blown over a wide area towards the outdoor unit to achieve the defrosting effect. Rubber pads are used to adhere to both sides of the outdoor unit, increasing the stability of the device after installation.

[0004] In the process of implementing this application, the inventors discovered that the technology has at least the following problems: Although the above technical solution can install the defrosting device by the tension of the spring, the side plates used for positioning on both sides will stick to the outside of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and the contact area with the air conditioner outdoor unit is too large, so the contact area cannot be effectively defrosted. Therefore, further improvements can be made. Utility Model Content

[0023] Please see Figure 2 The pull-back assembly 6 includes a guide rod 9 fixedly installed on the side of the support plate 4 opposite to the connecting plate 5, and the other end of the guide rod 9 is inserted into the inside of the connecting plate 5. A tension spring 10 is fixedly installed between the support plate 4 and the connecting plate 5, and the tension spring 10 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 9. The tension springs 10 on both sides can always pull the support plates 4 on both sides closer to the connecting plate 5, thereby driving the right angle clamping plates 3 on both sides to tighten and clamp on the side of the air conditioner outdoor unit body 1. The guide rod 9 can also play a guiding and limiting role, improving stability.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 The tightening assembly 7 includes a support 11 fixedly installed on the top side of the support plate 4 and the connecting plate 5. A double-ended screw 12 is screwed into the inside of the support 11.

A knob 13 is fixedly installed at both ends of the double-ended screw 12. By turning the knob 13, the double-ended screw 12 can be rotated inside the support 11, which can drive the two sides of the support 11 to move closer or further away, thereby driving the two sides of the support plate 4 and the connecting plate 5 to be clamped at the front and rear top ribs of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0025] Please see Figure 3-4 The defrosting assembly 8 includes a fixed post 14 fixedly installed on one side of the front of the right-angle plate 3. A guide plate 15 is fixedly installed at the end of the fixed post 14. The guide plate 15 has a diversion part 16 in the middle. The middle of the diversion part 16 is pointed and protruding. A guide pipe 17 and a telescopic pipe 18 are respectively connected to the two sides of the guide plate 15. The telescopic pipe 18 has a retractable threaded tube. The surfaces of the right-angle plates 3 on both sides are provided with blowers for defrosting the air conditioner outdoor unit on both sides. The guide pipe 17 and the telescopic pipe 18 are respectively connected into the blowers. Air is blown to the guide plate 15 through the air outlet 2. Then, the airflow is guided into the interior of the two sides of the guide plate 15 through the diversion part 16. That is, it is guided into the blowers on both sides along the guide pipe 17 and the telescopic pipe 18. Finally, it can be blown out from the blowers to defrost the two sides of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0026] Please see Figure 3-4The blower includes a housing 19 fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the right-angle plate 3.

Under the action of the spring 10's rebound force, the right-angle clamps 3 on both sides will be clamped on the left and right sides of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Then turn the knob 13 to drive the bidirectional screw 12 to rotate inside the support 11, which will drive the supports 11 on both sides to move closer or further away, thereby driving the support plates 4 on both sides and the connecting plate 5 to be clamped at the front and rear top ribs of the air conditioner outdoor unit. At this time, the installation is completed.

[0028] As the outdoor unit of the air conditioner operates, air will blow out from the air outlet 2. Therefore, the airflow will be directed into the interior of both sides of the air guide plate 15 through the diversion section 16. That is, it will be directed into the outer casing 19 on both sides along the air guide pipe 17 and the telescopic pipe 18 respectively. Then, the introduced gas will be heated by the electric heating plate 21. Finally, the hot air will be discharged out through the nozzle 20 for defrosting.

[0029] In summary, the outdoor unit defrosting device of this multi-split air conditioning system uses the rebound force of the tension spring 10 to pull the right-angle clamps 3 on both sides of the outdoor unit and clamp them on the left and right sides of the air conditioner. Then, by turning the knob 13, the supports 11 on both sides move closer to each other, and the support plates 4 and connecting plates 5 on both sides are clamped to the front and rear top edges of the outdoor unit. This allows it to be used with outdoor units of different sizes and only occupies the edge space of the outdoor unit.

[0030] The airflow is diverted by the diversion section 16 and directed into the interior of both sides of the air guide plate 15. Then, it is directed into the interior of the outer casing 19 on both sides through the air guide pipe 17 and the telescopic pipe 18. At the same time, the airflow is heated by the electric heating plate 21 and then blown to the left and right sides of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner through the electric heating plate 21. This can defrost by blowing hot air and improve the defrosting effect.
