They must possess characteristics such as high strength, light weight, good heat dissipation, and corrosion resistance. Commonly used materials include aluminum alloys or plastic composites to reduce weight and improve efficiency. The housing design needs to consider mechanical strength, heat dissipation and ventilation, and vibration control. They are usually manufactured using aluminum alloy die casting or casting processes to ensure structural sturdiness and sealing performance.
[0003] The prior art discloses a lightweight screw air compressor housing (publication number: CN208534764U), which has a mounting part with mounting holes on the air compressor housing, thereby facilitating the installation of internal components of the air compressor; the mounting part is connected to the air compressor housing by several support ribs, thereby reducing the overall weight of the air compressor housing while ensuring the connection strength between the mounting part and the air compressor housing; the air compressor housing has lubrication holes, and each mounting hole of the mounting part is connected to at least one lubrication hole, thereby ensuring the lubrication performance in the mounting holes; and threaded connection parts are provided at the ports of the lubrication holes and lubrication channels, and by setting plugs on the threaded connection parts, the lubricating oil is better stored in the air compressor housing.

[0023] 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.
[0024] This utility model provides a lightweight screw air compressor housing, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the housing of a lightweight screw air compressor includes a housing 1, a three-layer sandwich mechanism is snapped into the inside of the housing 1, and a threaded hole is opened on the outer surface of the housing 1, with an installation mechanism threaded into the inside of the threaded hole;
[0025] The mounting mechanism includes a mounting plate 2. The surface of the mounting plate 2 is threaded to the inside of the threaded hole on the outer surface of the housing 1 via a fixing bolt 3. A snap-fit plate 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the surface of the mounting plate 2. When the housing 1 needs to be repaired or inspected, it can be quickly disassembled through the mounting mechanism. The fixing bolt 3 is unscrewed outward, and the snap-fit plate 4 is rotated to quickly disassemble the base plate 8. The quick disassembly design can greatly reduce downtime and improve the working efficiency of the equipment. When emergency repairs or replacement of parts are required, disassembly and assembly can be completed quickly to ensure production continuity.
[0026] A pad 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the snap-fit plate 4, and a vertical rod 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pad 5. The vertical rod 6 serves as a plug-in connection.
[0027] A connecting rod 7 is inserted into the outer surface of the upright 6. One end of the connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to the base plate 8. Tighten the fixing bolt 3 to separate the mounting plate 2 from the housing 1. Rotate the snap-fit plate 4 to rotate it to the side and away from the connecting rod 7. Then, pull the upright 6 out from the hole of the connecting rod 7.
[0028] The surface of the base plate 8 has a groove, and a dustproof net 9 is fixedly connected inside the groove. The dustproof net 9 on the surface of the base plate 8 can play a role in heat dissipation and ventilation, dissipating heat from the inside of the housing 1 and preventing the internal parts of the housing 1 from overheating and affecting its use.
[0029] The three-layer sandwich structure includes an outer shell 10, the outer surface of which is snapped into the interior of the housing 1. The outer surface of the outer shell 10 has honeycomb holes 11, and honeycomb cotton pads 12 are fixedly connected inside the honeycomb holes 11. The interior of the housing 1 adopts a three-layer sandwich structure, with the outer layer being a high-strength composite material, the middle layer being sound-absorbing foam or honeycomb filler, and the inner layer being an acoustic microporous plate 13, forming multiple sound insulation barriers. The heat insulation layer of the sandwich structure can effectively reduce heat conduction, prevent the housing from overheating, and protect the internal key components. The sandwich layer helps to absorb and isolate vibration and noise, improving the comfort of the operating environment.
[0030] A microporous plate 13 is snapped onto the inner wall of the outer shell 10. The surface of the microporous plate 13 is provided with micro-grooves 14.

The outer layer is a high-strength composite material, the middle layer is sound-absorbing foam or honeycomb filler, and the inner layer is the acoustic microporous plate 13, forming multiple sound insulation barriers. Subsequently, a honeycomb cotton pad 12 is inserted inside the outer shell 10 to enhance the sound insulation effect. The honeycomb shape is strong and can enhance the hardness of the inside of the housing 1, reducing the damage to the internal parts of the housing 1 when impacted. Then, micro-grooves 14 and guide rods 15 are provided on the surface of the microporous plate 13, which can allow the internal parts of the housing 1 to... Air circulation enhances heat dissipation. When disassembling the housing 1 and base plate 8, tighten the fixing bolt 3 to separate the mounting plate 2 from the housing 1, rotate the snap-fit plate 4 to the side to move away from the connecting rod 7, and then pull the upright 6 out of the hole in the connecting rod 7.
