Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning motors, and in particular to an adjustable structure for a fan motor bracket. Background Technology
[0002] In the outdoor unit of an air conditioner, the motor bracket serves to install and fix the fan motor, ensuring that the fan motor is in a fixed installation position. Since the fan blades are fixedly mounted on the fan motor, this ensures that the fan blades driven by the fan motor remain in a fixed spatial position throughout the entire rotation process.
[0003] Existing motor bracket mounting structures generally include a frame, a mounting plate, and a fan motor. The fan motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate, which in turn is fixedly mounted on the frame. Both the frame and the mounting plate are integrally formed sheet metal structures. Once the mold is completed, the fixed mounting positions of the frame and the mounting plate are determined, meaning the position of the fan motor on the mounting plate is also fixed. This fixed structure presents a problem: subsequent upgrades to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner require improving the heat exchange efficiency of the air duct, necessitating adjustments to the fan motor's mounting position to adjust the fan blade position. However, the fixed and non-adjustable mounting structure of the frame, mounting plate, and fan motor prevents these upgrades, impacting product versatility and user experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a fan motor bracket adjustment structure that allows the fan motor to adjust its installation position along the motor output shaft direction when adjustment is required.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a fan motor bracket adjustment structure, including a frame, a mounting plate and a fan motor, the fan motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate, the frame includes a mounting wall, and at least one sliding groove is provided on the mounting wall, the extension direction of the sliding groove is consistent with the direction of the output shaft of the fan motor; the mounting plate includes a side wall and a detachable connection structure, the detachable connection structure is provided in the sliding groove, and the side wall is provided on the mounting wall through the detachable connection structure.
[0006] Furthermore, the detachable connection structure includes a fastening screw and at least one mounting hole provided on the side wall, the fastening screw being disposed in a sliding groove and threadedly engaging with the mounting hole.
[0007] Furthermore, the mounting holes are arranged in a straight line, which is consistent with the extension direction of the sliding groove.
[0008] Furthermore, there are two sliding grooves, and the mounting wall is provided with frame reinforcing ribs, which are located between the two sliding grooves.
[0009] Furthermore, the sidewall is provided with sidewall reinforcing ribs, and the protrusion direction of the sidewall reinforcing ribs is opposite to the protrusion direction of the corresponding frame reinforcing ribs on the mounting wall.
[0010] Furthermore, the mounting plate body includes a mounting plate, with side walls symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting plate is provided with through holes for mounting the fan motor, and the outer periphery of the through holes is provided with annular mounting plate reinforcing ribs.
[0012] Furthermore, the structure formed by the mounting plate and the side walls on both sides of the mounting plate is U-shaped.
[0013] Furthermore, the mounting wall is a flanged structure on the frame.
[0014] Furthermore, the frame includes frame vertical beams, which are positioned between two opposing mounting walls, with the extension direction of the frame vertical beams perpendicular to the extension direction of the mounting walls.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. In actual use, the fan motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate, and the side wall of the mounting plate corresponds to the mounting wall of the frame. The detachable connection structure is located within the sliding groove, fixing the side wall to the mounting wall. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the fan motor along the output shaft direction, first remove the detachable connection structure, allowing it to move along the extension direction of the sliding groove. After confirming that the fan motor and mounting plate have moved to the new position, the detachable connection structure is then fixed back to the mounting wall. This achieves both the placement of the fan motor in the new position and the adjustment of the fan's position along the output shaft direction. 2. The use of screws and mounting holes allows for quick and easy fastening between the side wall and the mounting wall. 3. The protruding direction of the side wall reinforcing ribs is opposite to that of the corresponding frame reinforcing ribs on the mounting wall, preventing interference between the side wall reinforcing ribs and the frame reinforcing ribs that would occur if their protruding directions were the same, allowing the side wall and the mounting wall to be tightly fitted together. Fourth, the mounting wall, serving as a flanged structure of the frame, can be quickly manufactured during frame production using sheet metal bending processes, improving production efficiency and making the mounting wall more stable. This utility model is particularly suitable for applications where air conditioner motors require adjustment. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The components in the diagram are labeled as follows: frame 1, upper bending part of frame 101, vertical beam of frame 102, lower bending part of frame 103, mounting wall 104, sliding groove 105, frame reinforcing rib 106, mounting plate 2, mounting plate 201, side wall 202, motor mounting hole 203, mounting hole 204, mounting plate reinforcing rib 205, side wall reinforcing rib 206, fan motor 3, and output shaft 31. Detailed Implementation
[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 The image shows an embodiment of the fan blade motor bracket adjustment structure. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the frame 1 is a frame structure formed by multiple bending and hollowing processes of sheet metal. The top of the frame 1 is the upper bending section 101, and the bottom of the frame 1 is the lower bending section 103. The middle of the frame 1 has three hollow sections, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. Between adjacent hollow sections are horizontally arranged vertical beams 102, which provide sufficient structural strength for the frame 1. The upper and lower sides of the middle hollow section are the vertical beams 102, and the left and right sides are mounting walls 104, totaling two. The mounting walls 104 are formed by flanging the material of the frame 1, ensuring the structural stability and strength of the mounting walls 104. The mounting wall 104 is perpendicular to the plane where the vertical beam 102 of the frame is located, and the mounting wall 104 extends in the vertical direction while the vertical beam 102 of the frame extends in the horizontal direction. This allows the frame 1 to maintain better frame structure stability after the fan motor 3 and the mounting plate 2 are installed.
[0023] Each mounting wall 104 is provided with two sliding grooves 105, and a plurality of frame reinforcing ribs 106 are provided between the two sliding grooves 105. The two sliding grooves 105 are arranged vertically. The extension direction of the sliding grooves 105 is consistent with the direction of the output shaft 31 of the fan motor 3. Regarding the aforementioned left and right mounting walls 104, the frame reinforcing ribs 106 on the left mounting wall 104 protrude to the left, and the frame reinforcing ribs 106 on the right mounting wall 104 protrude to the right. The setting of the frame reinforcing ribs 106 can reduce the resonance caused by the operation of the fan motor 3.
[0024] Figure 2 The image shows the mounting plate 2, which consists of a mounting plate 201 and side walls 202 on both sides of the mounting plate 201. The mounting plate 2 is a U-shaped structure formed by multiple bending and hollowing processes of a sheet metal sheet. A through hole for mounting the fan motor 3 is provided in the center of the mounting plate 201. Annular reinforcing ribs 205 are provided around the outer periphery of the through hole to enhance the structural strength of the mounting plate 201. Four motor mounting holes 203 are provided near the four corners of the mounting plate 201. The fan motor 3 is fixed to the mounting plate 201 by screws installed in the motor mounting holes 203. The main body of the fan motor 3 passes through the through hole in the center of the mounting plate 201.
[0025] The side walls 202 on both sides of the mounting plate 201 are respectively provided with the aforementioned left and right side mounting walls 104. Each side wall 202 is provided with two rows of mounting holes 204, with four mounting holes 204 in each row. The four mounting holes 204 in each row are arranged in a straight line, and the straight line is consistent with the direction of the output shaft 31 of the fan motor 3. Several side wall reinforcing ribs 206 are provided between the two rows of mounting holes 204, which can effectively improve the strength of the side wall 202. Correspondingly, the side wall reinforcing ribs 206 on the left side wall 202 protrude to the right, and the side wall reinforcing ribs 206 on the right side wall 202 protrude to the left. This ensures that the protrusion direction of the frame reinforcing ribs 106 is opposite to the protrusion direction of the corresponding side wall reinforcing ribs 206, preventing interference during assembly.
[0026] In actual use, the frame 1 is fixed to the base plate of the outdoor unit. Then, the side wall 202 of the mounting plate 2 is aligned with the mounting wall 104 on the frame 1. Based on the required placement of the fan motor 3, a suitable mounting hole 204 is selected on the mounting plate 2 to mate with the sliding groove 105 on the frame 1. Screws are then passed through the sliding groove 105 and threaded into the mounting hole 204 to secure the mounting plate 2. When the position of the mounting plate 2 needs to be adjusted later, since the extension direction of the sliding groove 105 is consistent with the direction of the output shaft 31 of the fan motor 3, simply loosen the screws mating with the mounting hole 204, allowing the fan motor 3 to be adjusted along the extension direction of the sliding groove 105. After adjustment, the mounting hole 204 is tightened again with the screws. After the mounting plate 2 is fixed to the frame 1, the fan motor 3 is fixed through the mounting hole 203.
