Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner outdoor fan testing technology, specifically to a testing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The outdoor fan (outdoor air conditioner fan) is a crucial component of an air conditioning system, responsible for heat dissipation and ensuring effective refrigerant condensation. A malfunction in the outdoor fan can lead to reduced cooling performance, compressor overheating, or even system shutdown. Therefore, testing and inspecting the outdoor fan is a critical step in the factory inspection of air conditioners.

[0003] In existing technologies, testing an air conditioner's outdoor fan requires simulating the operation of a high-pressure switch. Traditionally, simulating this operation involves manually sealing the air inlet of the outdoor fan with a blocking plate. This causes a rise in refrigerant pressure within the refrigerant lines, forcing the high-pressure switch to activate, thus confirming its operation. However, this manual method of sealing the air inlet results in low automation in the outdoor fan testing and poses certain safety hazards when the outdoor fan is powered on. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and provide a testing mechanism that solves the problems of low automation and certain safety hazards when the air conditioner outdoor fan is powered on, which are caused by manually sealing the air inlet of the air conditioner outdoor fan with a hand-held blocking plate in the existing technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a testing mechanism for testing air conditioners, including:

[0007] A testing platform, wherein the testing platform has a testing area; and,

[0008] Two blocking mechanisms are installed on adjacent sides of the test platform. Each blocking mechanism includes a mounting frame, a blocking plate, and a first driving component. The mounting frame is slidably connected to the test platform, and the blocking plate is connected to the mounting frame. The first driving component is installed on the test platform and connected to the mounting frame. The first driving component is used to drive the mounting frame to move relative to the test platform, and the planes on which the two blocking plates of the two blocking mechanisms are located are perpendicular to each other.

[0009] In some embodiments, the blocking mechanism further includes a second driving member, which is mounted on the mounting frame and connected to a blocking plate slidably disposed on the mounting frame. The second driving member is used to drive the blocking plate to move relative to the mounting frame to adjust the distance between the blocking plate and the test platform.

[0010] In some embodiments, the first driving member is an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0011] In some embodiments, the second drive element is a screw jack.

[0012] In some embodiments, the two blocking plates are cuboid in shape, and rectangular grooves are provided on the side of the two blocking plates that are in contact with the air inlet of the air conditioner's outdoor fan.

[0013] In some embodiments, the length of one of the blocking plates is 1.5 to 2 times the length of the other blocking plate.

[0014] In some embodiments, a liquid collection hopper is also included, which is installed on the test platform and is used to collect condensate discharged from the outdoor fan of the air conditioner.

[0015] In some embodiments, the bottom of the test platform is provided with a plurality of movable rollers, and at least one of the movable rollers is equipped with a brake.

[0016] In some embodiments, a grip bar is provided on one side of the test platform to facilitate moving the test platform.

[0017] In some embodiments, the system further includes a plurality of support legs, which are threadedly rotatably connected to the test platform, and the lower end of each support leg is fixedly provided with an anti-slip pad.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the testing mechanism provided by this utility model has a testing area on the testing platform, and two sealing mechanisms are respectively installed on adjacent sides of the testing platform. The sealing mechanism includes a mounting frame, a blocking plate, and a first driving component. The mounting frame is slidably connected to the testing platform, the blocking plate is connected to the mounting frame, and the first driving component is installed on the testing platform and connected to the mounting frame. The first driving component is used to drive the mounting frame to move relative to the testing platform, and the planes where the two blocking plates of the two sealing mechanisms are located are perpendicular to each other. When an air conditioner outdoor fan is placed in the testing area, with the two blocking plates corresponding to the two air inlets of the air conditioner outdoor fan, the first driving component drives the mounting frame to move relative to the testing platform, so that the blocking plates block the air inlets. This method has a high degree of automation and improves the safety of air conditioner outdoor fan testing. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0023] To address the technical issues of existing technologies that rely on manual hand-held blocking plates to seal the air inlet of air conditioner outdoor fans, which have a low degree of automation and pose certain safety hazards when the air conditioner outdoor fans are powered on.

[0024] This solution provides a testing facility that can improve the automation and safety of testing air conditioner outdoor fans.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-3 , Figures 1-3 This invention provides a testing mechanism for testing an air conditioner outdoor fan. It includes a testing platform 1 and two sealing mechanisms 2. The testing platform 1 has a testing area, and the two sealing mechanisms 2 are respectively installed on adjacent sides of the testing platform 1. Each sealing mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 21, a blocking plate 22, and a first driving member 23. The mounting frame 21 is slidably connected to the testing platform 1, and the blocking plate 22 is connected to the mounting frame 21. The first driving member 23 is installed on the testing platform 1 and connected to the mounting frame 21. The first driving member 23 drives the mounting frame 21 to move relative to the testing platform 1, and the planes containing the two blocking plates 22 of the two sealing mechanisms 2 are perpendicular to each other.

[0026] In actual use, the air conditioner outdoor fan is placed in the test area on the test platform 1, and the two air inlets of the air conditioner outdoor fan are respectively aligned with the two blocking plates 22. The first driving component 23 drives the mounting bracket 21 to move relative to the test platform 1, so that the blocking plates 22 block the air inlets. At the same time, elastic sealing material is adhered to the surface of the blocking plate to make it fit tightly with the contact surface of the air conditioner outdoor fan, ensuring good sealing.

[0027] Furthermore, based on the above solution, in order to adjust the height of the blocking plate 22, the blocking mechanism 2 specifically includes a second driving member 24. The second driving member 24 is mounted on the mounting frame 21 and is connected to the blocking plate 22 that is slidably disposed on the mounting frame 21. The second driving member 24 is used to drive the blocking plate 22 to move relative to the mounting frame 21 to adjust the distance between the blocking plate 22 and the test platform 1.

[0028] It is understood that the first driving member 23 can drive the blocking plate 22 to move closer to or away from the test area in the horizontal direction, and the second driving member 24 can drive the blocking plate 22 to move closer to or away from the test area in the vertical direction.

[0029] In one embodiment, the first driving member 23 is an electric cylinder; in other embodiments, the first driving member 23 is a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0030] It should be noted that the second driving component 24 is not limited to a specific structure. In this specific embodiment, the second driving component 24 is a screw jack.

[0031] In addition, in one embodiment, the two blocking plates 22 are cuboid in shape, and rectangular grooves are provided on the side of the two blocking plates 22 that are in contact with the air inlet of the air conditioner outdoor fan. It should be noted that since the two air inlets on adjacent sides of the air conditioner outdoor fan are different in size, the size of the two blocking plates 22 can be adjusted according to the actual situation. Specifically, the length of one blocking plate 22 is 1.5-2 times the length of the other blocking plate 22.

[0032] Based on the above scheme, in order to collect the cooling water discharged from the air conditioner outdoor fan, a liquid collection hopper 3 is specifically included. The liquid collection hopper 3 is installed on the test platform 1 and is used to collect the condensate discharged from the air conditioner outdoor fan. In addition, the bottom of the liquid collection hopper 3 can be connected to a liquid guide pipe to discharge the condensate collected by the liquid collection hopper 3.

[0033] Based on the above scheme, in order to facilitate the movement of the test platform 1, in one embodiment, the bottom of the test platform 1 is provided with a plurality of moving rollers 4, and at least one of the moving rollers 4 is equipped with a brake.

[0034] In addition, based on the above scheme, in order to facilitate the operator to move the test platform 1, a handle 5 is provided on one side of the test platform 1, and the handle 5 is provided with an anti-slip sleeve. The operator can easily move the test platform 1 by holding the handle 5 and pushing the test platform 1 with the help of multiple moving rollers 4.

[0035] Furthermore, based on the above scheme, in order to improve the stability of the air conditioner outdoor fan during testing, it specifically includes multiple support legs 6, which are threadedly connected to the test platform 1. The lower end of the support leg 6 is fixed with an anti-slip pad. When the test platform 1 moves to the predetermined position, the support leg 6 can be rotated to make the anti-slip pad contact the ground, which can prevent the test platform 1 from shifting during the testing of the air conditioner outdoor fan. The anti-slip pad is an elastic rubber anti-slip pad.

[0036] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
