AI Technical Summary
In existing gas water heaters, the low-frequency vibration noise generated by the water pump during high-speed operation has limited effect in reducing resonance noise through rubber damping pads, and noise reduction methods need to be improved.
The fixed seat uses a matrix of elastic protrusions on the bottom wall of the enclosed cavity, which, together with the elastic limiting ridges distributed circumferentially on the side wall, dampens and suppresses the vibration of the water pump in the enclosed cavity. The elastic protrusions and limiting ridges also reduce the contact area and absorb low-frequency vibration noise.
It effectively reduces the operating noise of the water pump assembly and water heater, reduces friction noise, improves installation stability, and reduces the amplitude of vibration transmitted from the water pump assembly to the mounting base and water heater.
