Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning equipment, specifically to the fixing structure of the shock absorber and its air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] In the air conditioner manufacturing industry, rubber vibration dampers are widely used in piping systems to suppress vibration transmission and improve equipment stability. Traditional damper fixing methods typically involve creating through holes in the damper body to connect to the piping, and machining two annular grooves on its circumference. Plastic clamps are then wrapped around and secured to the grooves. However, this installation method exposes the plastic clamps to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation and high temperatures (such as in outdoor unit conditions), making them prone to brittleness and breakage. This can cause the damper body to detach and fail, leaving the piping system without vibration damping protection, leading to abnormal noises or even structural damage. Furthermore, the clamps require manual wrapping and tightening, which is extremely inconvenient in the confined space inside the air conditioner, affecting assembly efficiency. Existing technologies, such as those disclosed in [publication number missing], [missing information]. In the patent application CN220727516U, a first spatial pipe 3 and a second spatial pipe 4 are set in the rubber damping body, similar to the annular groove in the traditional damping block. Then, the first spatial pipe 3 is fixed to the rubber damping block body 1 by the first cable tie 2. The cable tie plays a role in strengthening the constraint. However, there are still problems such as the cable tie being inconvenient to operate in a narrow space, and the plastic aging and damage in a high-temperature environment, which leads to the failure of the strengthening constraint. This results in the pipe detaching from the damping block, the pipeline system losing its damping protection, causing abnormal noise or even structural damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] The present invention aims to provide a fixing structure for shock absorbers, so as to provide a fixing structure for shock absorbers that is easy to install and not easy to fall off.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fixing structure for a shock absorber and its air conditioner, comprising a first shock absorber and a second shock absorber. The surface of the first shock absorber relative to the second shock absorber is a first plane, and the surface of the second shock absorber relative to the first shock absorber is a second surface. Both the first plane and the second surface are provided with semi-circular through grooves that can be joined together to form a cylindrical hole for air conditioning pipes to pass through. A guide portion is provided on the first plane, and the guide portion includes at least two limiting protrusions. A limiting groove is provided on the second plane to cooperate with the limiting protrusions for sliding insertion. The number of limiting grooves and limiting protrusions is the same. It also includes at least two snap-fit portions symmetrically arranged on both sides of the semi-circular through groove. Each snap-fit portion includes a snap-fit that is embedded in the first shock absorber and a snap-fit seat that is embedded in the second shock absorber. The snap-fit is engaged with the corresponding snap-fit seat.
[0005] The beneficial effects of this plan are:
[0006] With the above configuration, during installation, the first and second surfaces face each other, embedded outside the air conditioning duct. By setting limiting protrusions and matching limiting grooves on the guide section, the limiting protrusions are inserted into the limiting grooves during installation, ensuring quick alignment of the two semi-circular grooves during assembly. This reduces the complexity of manual adjustments, improves assembly efficiency, and ensures accurate assembly of the two semi-circular grooves. After assembly, the clips and brackets are fixedly connected, achieving a firm fixation of the two damping blocks, preventing loosening or detachment, and improving the long-term reliability of the connection. The first and second damping blocks form a full-coverage protection for the duct, providing better vibration suppression and protecting the air conditioning duct.
[0007] Preferably, as an improvement, the buckle includes a connecting plate and a hook fixed on the connecting plate. The connecting plate is bent around its perimeter and embedded in the first plane. The buckle seat has a locking groove that engages with the hook. Both sides of the buckle seat are provided with lugs that can be embedded in the second shock absorber. The surface of the lugs is arrayed with multiple blind holes.
[0008] The beneficial effects are as follows: the connecting plate is bent around the perimeter and embedded into the first plane, which increases the contact area between the buckle and the first shock absorber, disperses the local force, and improves the overall structural stability. The lugs on both sides of the card seat can be embedded into the second shock absorber, forming multi-point contact and increasing the bonding strength between the card seat and the second shock absorber. The multiple blind holes on the surface of the lugs further improve the stability of the embedded fixation by increasing the contact area and friction.
[0009] Preferably, as an improvement, the buckle includes a connecting plate and a locking plate fixed on the connecting plate. A cylindrical plug is fixed to the end of the locking plate. The connecting plate is bent around its perimeter and embedded into the first plane. The locking seat is provided with a C-shaped buckle that can engage with the cylindrical plug. Both sides of the locking seat are provided with lugs that can be embedded with the second shock absorber. The surface of the lugs is arrayed with multiple blind holes.
[0010] The beneficial effects are as follows: The cylindrical plug engages with the C-shaped buckle on the card holder, achieving a tight fit through the elastic structure of the C-shaped buckle, enabling quick locking and ensuring the stability of the shock absorber under stress and vibration conditions. Under the elastic force of the C-shaped buckle, the cylindrical plug is less likely to detach, further enhancing the overall structural reliability. The connecting plate is bent around its perimeter and embedded into the first plane, increasing the contact area between the buckle and the first shock absorber, dispersing localized stress, and improving the overall structural stability. The lugs on both sides of the card holder can embed into the second shock absorber, forming multi-point contact and increasing the bonding strength between the card holder and the second shock absorber. The multiple blind holes arrayed on the lug surface further enhance the stability of the embedded fixation by increasing the contact area and friction.
[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, both the first damping block and the second damping block are made of rubber.
[0012] The beneficial effects are: rubber has excellent elasticity and vibration absorption properties, which can effectively absorb and attenuate vibrations and impacts in air conditioning piping systems, reduce the transmission of vibrations to surrounding components, thereby reducing noise and protecting equipment.
[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the cross-sections of the first damping block and the second damping block are semi-circular.
[0014] The beneficial effects are: the semi-circular cross-section design with ring-shaped characteristics makes it easier to align and assemble the first and second damping blocks when they are joined together, without the need for complicated adjustments, thus improving installation efficiency.
[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, the number of limiting protrusions is four, and the limiting protrusions are located at the four corners of the first plane, symmetrical to the semi-circular through groove and also symmetrical to the line connecting the buckle.
[0016] The beneficial effects are: the four limiting protrusions are symmetrically distributed, which means that the first and second planes can be aligned during installation, avoiding the problem of installation failure due to reverse placement. This greatly simplifies the assembly operation and is especially suitable for rapid installation in narrow spaces.
[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, guide slopes are symmetrically provided on both sides of the end of the limiting protrusion.
[0018] The beneficial effects are: the design of the guide ramp allows the limiting protrusion to naturally transition to the correct position when it is inserted into the limiting groove, even if there is a certain initial position deviation, thus significantly improving the assembly accuracy.
[0019] An air conditioner, characterized in that: it includes a fixed structure for shock-absorbing blocks, and also includes an air conditioner and an air conditioning pipe connected to the air conditioner, wherein a first shock-absorbing block and a second shock-absorbing block are fixedly connected to the air conditioning pipe by interference fit.

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The following detailed description is provided through specific implementation methods and examples:
[0028] The preferred embodiments of this utility model are basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 1-6 As shown, Figure 1 and Figure 2 The damping block fixing structure and its air conditioner shown include a first damping block 2 and a second damping block 3. The surface of the first damping block 2 relative to the second damping block 3 is a first plane, and the surface of the second damping block 3 relative to the first damping block 2 is a second surface. Both the first plane and the second surface are provided with semi-circular through grooves 1, which can be connected and spliced to form a cylindrical hole for the air conditioning pipe 14 to pass through. The first plane is provided with a guide part, which includes at least two limiting protrusions 4. The second plane is provided with a limiting groove 5 that slides into the limiting protrusions 4. The number of limiting grooves 5 and limiting protrusions 4 is the same. It also includes at least two buckling parts symmetrically arranged on both sides of the semi-circular through groove 1. Each buckling part includes a buckle that is embedded in the first damping block 2 and a buckle seat 9 that is embedded in the second damping block 3. The buckle engages with the corresponding buckle seat 9.
[0029] With the above configuration, during installation, the first and second surfaces face each other and are mounted on the outside of the air conditioning duct 14. By setting a limiting protrusion 4 and a matching limiting groove 5 on the guide portion, the limiting protrusion 4 is inserted into the limiting groove 5 during installation, ensuring that the two semi-circular grooves 1 can be quickly aligned during assembly. This reduces the complexity of manual adjustment, improves assembly efficiency, and ensures accurate assembly of the two semi-circular grooves 1. After assembly, the clips and brackets 9 are fixedly connected, achieving a firm fixation of the two damping blocks, preventing loosening or detachment, and improving the long-term reliability of the connection. The first damping block 2 and the second damping block 3 form a full-wrap protection for the duct, providing better vibration suppression and protecting the air conditioning duct 14.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, to ensure a simple, reliable, and easy-to-assemble structure, the preferred embodiment of this invention includes a connecting plate 6 and hooks 7 fixed to the connecting plate 6. The connecting plate 6 is bent around its perimeter and embedded in a first plane. The card holder 9 has a locking groove that engages with the hooks. Both sides of the card holder 9 are provided with lugs 8 that can be embedded in the second shock absorber 3. The surface of the lugs 8 is arrayed with multiple blind holes 10. The bending of the connecting plate 6 around its perimeter and embedding it in the first plane increases the contact area between the buckle and the first shock absorber 2, disperses localized stress, and improves the overall structural stability. The lugs 8 on both sides of the card holder 9 can be embedded in the second shock absorber 3, forming multi-point contact and increasing the bonding strength between the card holder 9 and the second shock absorber 3. The multiple blind holes 10 arrayed on the surface of the lugs 8 further enhance the stability of the embedded fixation by increasing the contact area and friction.
[0031] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, to make the structure simple, reliable, and easy to assemble, another embodiment of this technical solution includes a buckle comprising a connecting plate 6 and a clamping plate fixed on the connecting plate 6. A cylindrical plug 11 is fixed to the end of each clamping plate. The connecting plate 6 is bent around its perimeter and embedded into the first plane. The clamping seat 9 is provided with a C-shaped buckle 12 that can engage with the cylindrical plug 11. Both sides of the clamping seat 9 are provided with lugs 8 that can be embedded in the second shock absorber 3. Multiple blind holes 10 are arrayed on the surface of the lugs 8. The cylindrical plug 11 cooperates with the C-shaped buckle 12 on the clamping seat 9, achieving a tight engagement through the elastic structure of the C-shaped buckle 12. This allows for quick locking and ensures the stability of the shock absorber under stress and vibration conditions. Under the elastic force of the C-shaped buckle 12, the cylindrical plug 11 is less likely to detach from the C-shaped buckle 12, further enhancing the reliability of the overall structure. The connecting plate 6 is bent around its perimeter and embedded into the first plane, which increases the contact area between the buckle and the first shock absorber 2, disperses the local force, and improves the overall structural stability. The lugs 8 on both sides of the card holder 9 can be embedded into the second shock absorber 3 to form multi-point contact, which increases the bonding strength between the card holder 9 and the second shock absorber 3. The multiple blind holes 10 arrayed on the surface of the lugs 8 further improve the stability of the embedded fixation by increasing the contact area and friction.
[0032] To ensure a simple, reliable, and easy-to-assemble structure, the preferred embodiment of this invention uses rubber for both the first damping block 2 and the second damping block 3. Rubber possesses excellent elasticity and vibration absorption properties, effectively absorbing and attenuating vibrations and impacts in the air conditioning piping system, reducing the transmission of vibrations to surrounding components, thereby reducing noise and protecting the equipment. The first damping block 2 and the second damping block 3 have semi-circular cross-sections. To further ensure a simple, reliable, and easy-to-assemble structure, the preferred embodiment of this invention uses a semi-circular cross-section design with ring-like characteristics, increasing grip and improving installation efficiency. This also makes alignment and assembly easier when the first damping block 2 and the second damping block 3 are joined, eliminating the need for complex adjustments.
[0033] To ensure a simple, reliable, and easy-to-assemble structure, the preferred embodiment of this invention uses four limiting protrusions 4, located at the four corners of the first plane. These protrusions are symmetrical with respect to the semi-circular through-slot 1 and the connecting line of the snap-fit portion. This symmetrical distribution ensures that the first and second planes can be aligned during installation, preventing misalignment and simplifying assembly. This is particularly suitable for rapid installation in confined spaces. Furthermore, to facilitate assembly, the preferred embodiment of this invention features symmetrical guide ramps 13 on both sides of the ends of the limiting protrusions 4. The guide ramps 13 guide the limiting protrusions 4 to the correct position even with initial positional deviations when inserted into the limiting slot 5, significantly improving assembly accuracy.
