Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of refrigerant circulation pipeline from compressor to condenser, and particularly relates to a B-dimensional gauge for refrigerant circulation pipeline from compressor to condenser. Background Technology
[0002] The automotive air conditioning system encompasses heating, cooling, air purification, and control systems. The cooling system includes a refrigerant (evaporator), compressor, condenser, expansion valve, receiver-drier, and connected high and low pressure refrigerant circulation lines. Its main function is to regulate and control the temperature and humidity of the air entering the vehicle interior from the outside or inside the vehicle via the refrigerant. Specifically, the refrigerant circulating within the system processes the heat from the air passing through the evaporator and condenser through heat exchange—absorbing heat and condensing (dissipating heat)—thereby creating a comfortable driving environment for the driver and passengers.
[0003] The compressor to condenser B is a flexible high-pressure pipe assembly for heavy-duty truck air conditioning. It is a high-pressure pipeline component from the compressor to the condenser in the heavy-duty truck air conditioning refrigeration system. In automotive air conditioning refrigeration systems, the installation positions of the refrigerant (evaporator), condenser, expansion valve, and compressor vary, and the layout space is limited, resulting in a tortuous and complex refrigerant circulation pipeline route. Therefore, the designed pipeline route is often curved and varied, which brings many difficulties to the measurement of dimensions using conventional measuring tools during production. It is difficult to ensure product consistency and dimensional accuracy, and the process is time-consuming, affecting the product production schedule. Utility Model Content

[0026] The structure of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a dimension gauge for a compressor-condenser refrigerant circulation pipeline B, comprising a base plate 1, a compressor-side pressure gauge 2 mounted on the upper side of the base plate 1, the compressor-side pressure gauge 2 located on the left side of the base plate 1, a condenser-side pressure gauge 3 mounted on the upper side of the base plate 1, and the condenser-side pressure gauge 3 located on the right side of the base plate 1. A dimension detection component is mounted on the base plate 1, the dimension detection component being located between the compressor-side pressure gauge 2 and the condenser-side pressure gauge 3, and a refrigerant circulation pipeline mounted on the dimension detection component. The refrigerant circulation pipeline includes a main pipeline 4, which is located on the dimension detection component. A first sub-pipeline 5 and a second sub-pipeline 6 are respectively mounted at both ends of the main pipeline 4. The end of the first sub-pipeline 5 is located on the compressor-side pressure gauge 2, and the end of the second sub-pipeline 6 is located on the condenser-side pressure gauge 3.
[0028] The above solution involves placing the base plate 1 on the final inspection station of the production line during the dimensional inspection of the refrigerant circulation pipeline. Then, the main pipeline 4 is placed on the dimensional inspection assembly. The end of the first sub-pipeline 5 is placed on the compressor-side pressure plate 2, while the end of the second sub-pipeline 6 is placed on the condenser-side pressure plate 3. This facilitates the installation and inspection of the refrigerant circulation pipeline. By using measuring tools such as rulers and feeler gauges to measure the dimensions of the refrigerant circulation pipeline, unqualified refrigerant circulation pipelines can be effectively identified, thereby ensuring product quality.
[0029] Furthermore, the size detection component includes a first inclined groove 7 formed on the compressor-side pressure plate 2, and the end of the first sub-body pipe 5 is located on the first inclined groove 7; a second inclined groove 8 is formed on the condenser-side pressure plate 3, and the end of the second sub-body pipe 6 is located on the second inclined groove 8.
[0030] Furthermore, the size detection component also includes a hose gauge 9 installed on the base plate 1; the hose gauge 9 is located between the compressor-side pressure plate 2 and the condenser-side pressure plate 3, and a straight groove 10 is provided on the hose gauge 9; the main pipeline 4 is located in the straight groove 10.
[0031] Furthermore, a hose cover plate 11 is installed on the upper surface of the hose gauge 9, and a pressure plate 12 is provided on the upper side of the hose cover plate 11; the two sides of the pressure plate 12 are connected to the hose gauge 9 by bolts.
[0032] Furthermore, a first gauge 13 is installed on the base plate 1; the first gauge 13 is located between the hose gauge 9 and the condenser side pressure plate 3, and the second sub-pipe 6 is mounted on the first gauge 13.
[0033] Using the above scheme: In use, the main pipe 4 is placed in the straight groove 10 of the hose gauge 9, and then the hose cover plate 11 is inserted into the square groove above and fixed in position by the pressure plate 12. The end of the first sub-pipe 5 is located on the first inclined groove 7, while the end of the second sub-pipe 6 is located in the second inclined groove 8 of the condenser side pressure gauge plate 3. Its rod body is mounted on the first gauge 13. After installation, the gaps between the main pipe 4, the first sub-pipe 5, the second sub-pipe 6 and the relevant pressure gauge plates and gauges are measured using rulers, feeler gauges and other measuring tools. By comparing the dimensional errors of these gaps with the allowable range specified on the design drawings, it can be determined whether the installation meets the standards.
[0034] It should be noted that:
[0035] First, when inspecting the distance of the bend in the refrigerant circulation pipeline, the error is judged according to the allowable range specified in the refrigerant circulation pipeline drawing B, and then it is determined whether the distance of the bend is qualified.
[0036] Secondly, the dimensional inspection fixture is designed with an error range of ±0.5mm, which meets the allowable error range specified in drawing B of the refrigerant circulation pipeline from the compressor to the condenser. This ensures the accuracy of the refrigerant circulation pipeline dimension measurement. Therefore, the fixture is reasonably designed and is suitable not only for the final inspection station on the product production line but also for the re-inspection of products before they leave the factory, thereby improving its practicality.
[0037] Third, the inspection tool is made of aluminum alloy profiles and manufactured using machining and threaded connection methods.
[0038] The working principle of this utility model:
[0039] During the dimensional inspection of the refrigerant circulation pipeline, the base plate 1 is placed on the final inspection station of the production line. The main pipeline 4 is placed in the straight groove 10 of the hose gauge 9. Then, the hose cover plate 11 is inserted into the square groove above and fixed in position by the pressure plate 12. The end of the first sub-pipe 5 is located on the first inclined groove 7, while the end of the second sub-pipe 6 is located in the second inclined groove 8 of the condenser side pressure gauge plate 3. Its rod body is mounted on the first gauge 13. After installation, the gaps between the main pipeline 4, the first sub-pipe 5, the second sub-pipe 6 and the relevant gauge plates and gauges are measured using rulers, feeler gauges and other measuring tools. By comparing the dimensional errors of these gaps with the allowable range specified on the design drawings, it can be determined whether the installation meets the standards.
