[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] As attached Figure 1 - Figure 4 The diagram shows a quick-connect installation air conditioning duct structure. This quick-connect installation air conditioning duct structure is equipped with a docking installation component. The docking installation component enables the outer walls of two air conditioning ducts to be synchronously positioned and docked through two second toothed grooves 12, which greatly improves the installation efficiency of the air conditioning duct. The specific structural configuration of the docking installation component is as follows.
[0020] In this technical solution, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 - Figure 2As shown, a linkage block 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the linkage support rod 1, and a retraction electric cylinder 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the linkage block 2. Two docking installation components are provided on the outer wall of the linkage support rod 1. Each docking installation component includes two sleeve posts 4 slidably disposed on the outer wall of the linkage support rod 1. A linkage post 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each sleeve post 4, and a sleeve frame 7 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the linkage post 5. A pressure plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the linkage post 5, and an upper pressure plate 8 for compressing air conditioning pipes is welded to the lower surface of the pressure plate 6. A lower pressure plate 9 is provided below the upper pressure plate 8, and a base plate 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lower pressure plate 9. The base plate 10 is fixedly connected to the sleeve frame 7. The inner walls of the two sleeve posts 4 and the outer wall of the linkage support rod 1 are both smooth surfaces, and the vertical cross-section of the linkage support rod 1 is circular. The pressure plate 6 is slidably connected to the sleeve frame 7, and both the inner wall of the sleeve frame 7 and the outer wall of the pressure plate 6 are smooth surfaces. Both the sleeve frame 7 and the pressure plate 6 are made of stainless steel.
[0021] In this technical solution, as shown in the appendix Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall of the upper pressure plate 8 is provided with a second toothed groove 12, and the vertical cross-sectional shape of the second toothed groove 12 is V-shaped, so that the upper pressure plate 8 can press the second toothed groove 12 downward onto the air conditioning pipe, increasing the stability of the air conditioning pipe. The inner wall of the lower pressure plate 9 is provided with a first toothed groove 11, and the vertical cross-sectional shape of the first toothed groove 11 is V-shaped, so that the two air conditioning pipes can be placed in the first toothed grooves 11 on the inner walls of the two lower pressure plates 9 respectively, and the first toothed grooves 11 can achieve stable reinforcement.
[0022] In this rapid installation air conditioning duct structure, two air conditioning ducts are placed in the first toothed grooves 11 on the inner walls of two lower pressure plates 9. Support bars 13 are supported by a support frame 14, and the support bars 13 support a retraction cylinder 3. The retraction cylinder 3 drives the linkage block 2 downwards, which in turn causes the linkage rod 1 to move downwards. The linkage rod 1 drives the two connecting posts 4 to move downwards synchronously, which in turn drives the linkage post 5 downwards. The linkage post 5 moves downwards along the inner wall of the connecting frame 7, and the linkage post 5 drives the pressure plate 6 downwards. The pressure plate 6 slides down along the inner wall of the connecting frame 7, and simultaneously, the pressure plate 6 drives the upper pressure plate 8 downwards. The upper pressure plate 8 causes the second toothed groove 12 to press downwards onto the air conditioning duct, thus connecting the duct to the first toothed groove 11. The base plate 10 supports the lower pressure plate 9, increasing its stability and enabling the outer walls of the two air conditioning ducts to be synchronously positioned and connected via the two second toothed grooves 12.
[0023] By activating two electric cylinders 19, the two electric cylinders 19 push the two push columns 18 closer together, and the two push columns 18 drive the two connecting sliders 17 closer together. The two connecting sliders 17 slide along the groove 15 on the inner wall of the support frame 14, and at the same time slide along the outer wall of the support column 16. In this way, the base plate 10 drives the lower pressure plate 9 to move, and the lower pressure plate 9 drives the air conditioning pipe to move. The two air conditioning pipes are quickly connected and locked together. This not only enables the vertical connection and locking of the two air conditioning pipes, but also enables the connection and locking of the two air conditioning pipes quickly, which greatly improves the efficiency of the connection and installation.
[0024] In this technical solution, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a linkage guide assembly is provided on one side of the retractable electric cylinder 3; the linkage guide assembly includes a support bar 13, a support frame 14, a groove 15, a support column 16, two sleeve sliders 17, two push columns 18, and two push electric cylinders 19.
[0025] The support bar 13 is fixed to one side of the retractable electric cylinder 3, and the bottom end of the support frame 14 is welded to the bottom end of the support bar 13. The groove 15 is opened on the inner wall of the support frame 14, and the support column 16 is fixed on the inner wall of the support frame 14.
[0026] Both sliding blocks 17 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the support column 16. Both sliding blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the two base plates 10. Two push columns 18 are fixed to both sides of the sliding blocks 17. Two electric push cylinders 19 are fixed to one end of each push column 18. Both electric push cylinders 19 are fixedly connected to the support frame 14, and the outer wall of the output end of each electric push cylinder 19 is slidably connected to the support frame 14. The vertical cross-section of both push columns 18 is circular.
[0027] When this technical solution is in use, the two push cylinders 19 push the two push columns 18 closer to each other, and the two sleeve sliders 17 slide along the groove 15 on the inner wall of the support frame 14. The base plate 10 drives the lower pressure plate 9 to move, which can achieve vertical and rapid docking and locking of the two air conditioning pipes.
