Abstract

The utility model relates to a mobile air conditioner heat pipe combination device, which has a shell, a heat conduction component, a heat pipe and a fixing component. The shell has a heat dissipation hole formed on the surface of the shell and connected with the inside and outside of the shell. The heat conduction component is arranged in the shell and has an air outlet. The heat pipe is telescopic, one end of the heat pipe is connected with the air outlet, and the other end can selectively extend from the heat dissipation hole. When the heat pipe is contracted, the surface of the heat pipe is formed with multiple wrinkles. The fixing component penetrates one side of the shell and can be clamped in the wrinkles. Therefore, when the user pulls out the heat pipe from the shell, since one end of the heat pipe is fixed on the fixing component, the user can prevent excessive force from pulling out or displacing the whole heat pipe.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a heat exhaust pipe connection device, and more particularly to a heat exhaust pipe connection device for a portable air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] For ease of use, portable air conditioners typically have a compressible hose for the heat dissipation pipe, with one end of the pipe housed within the unit's casing. When not in use, the heat dissipation pipe is retracted into the casing; when in use, it can be pulled out and connected to the outdoor unit to dissipate the heat generated.

[0003] When a user pulls out the heat dissipation pipe, a certain amount of force is required to extend it. However, existing portable air conditioners simply fit the heat dissipation pipe against the inner wall of the casing. Therefore, when a user pulls out the heat dissipation pipe with excessive force, it often causes the entire pipe to move rather than extend, resulting in inconvenience in use.

[0004] Therefore, proposing a better improvement plan is an urgent problem that the industry needs to solve. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a heat exhaust pipe connection device for a portable air conditioner, which is used to fix one end of the heat exhaust pipe to the housing of the portable air conditioner so that the user can easily pull the heat exhaust pipe out of the housing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the mobile air conditioner heat exhaust pipe connecting device proposed in this utility model has the following features:

[0011] A fixing component extends through one side of the housing and engages with the folds.

[0012] The advantage of this invention lies in the inclusion of a fixing component. When the fixing component approaches the heat dissipation pipe, it engages with the folds of the heat dissipation pipe, securing one end of the heat dissipation pipe to the fixing component. Therefore, when the user pulls the heat dissipation pipe out of the housing, because one end of the heat dissipation pipe is fixed to the fixing component, it prevents the user from pulling out the entire heat dissipation pipe or causing displacement due to excessive force.

[0014] A single-piece assembly that can selectively move closer to or further away from the heat pipe;

[0015] A plurality of plates are disposed on one side of the engaging member; when the engaging member is close to the heat pipe, each plate can engage in two of the folds.

[0017] This card assembly also features:

[0018] An adjustment hole is formed on the other side of the engaging member opposite to the plates;

[0019] This fixing component further features:

[0020] An adjustment element is disposed in the adjustment hole of the engaging element and can control the engaging element to move closer to or further away from the heat dissipation pipe.

[0028] The portable air conditioner heat exhaust pipe connection device described above further has the following advantages:

[0029] A positioning tube is connected to the air outlet, and the end of the heat exhaust pipe is disposed in the positioning tube, and the fixing component passes through the positioning tube; the positioning tube has:

[0030] A tube body portion surrounds the heat dissipation tube, and the fixing component passes through the tube body portion;

[0031] A stop portion, one end of which is connected to the pipe body portion and extends away from the air outlet, and the pipe wall of the heat exhaust pipe is disposed between the pipe body portion and the stop portion; when the engaging member approaches the heat exhaust pipe, the engaging member pushes the heat exhaust pipe against the stop portion.

[0032] As described above, in the portable air conditioner heat exhaust pipe connection device, the positioning pipe has:

[0033] A limiting part, one end of which is connected to the pipe body and extends away from the air outlet, and the pipe wall of the heat exhaust pipe is disposed between the pipe body and the limiting part.

[0044] The following, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments of the present invention, further illustrates the technical means adopted by the present invention to achieve its intended purpose.

[0045] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3This utility model proposes a mobile air conditioner heat exhaust pipe combination device, which has a housing 10, a heat conduction component 20, a heat exhaust pipe 30 and a fixing component 40, and can optionally have a positioning pipe 50.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The housing 10 has a heat dissipation hole 11 formed on the surface of the housing 10, which connects the interior of the housing 10 to the outside. A heat-conducting component 20 is disposed in the housing 10 and has an air inlet 21 and an air outlet 22. The heat dissipation pipe 30 is a telescopic tube, one end of which is connected to the air outlet 22 of the heat-conducting component 20, and the other end can selectively extend from the heat dissipation hole 11. When the heat dissipation pipe 30 contracts, a plurality of folds 31 are formed on its surface. Specifically, when the heat dissipation pipe 30 contracts, both ends of the heat dissipation pipe 30 are pressed towards the middle, causing the pipe wall of the heat dissipation pipe 30 to fold under force and stack in a plurality of sheets. In other words, these folds 31 can extend along a direction perpendicular to the length of the heat dissipation pipe 30, or further surround the heat dissipation pipe 30.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 7 The fixing component 40 penetrates one side of the housing 10 and can engage in the folds 31 of the heat dissipation pipe 30. The fixing component 40 has an engaging member 41, a plurality of plates 42, and an adjusting member 43. The engaging member 41 can selectively approach or move away from the heat dissipation pipe 30 and has an adjusting hole 411. The adjusting hole 411 is formed on one side of the engaging member 41, specifically on the side of the engaging member 41 away from the heat dissipation pipe 30. The adjusting hole 411 has a first thread 4111 formed on the inner wall surface of the adjusting hole 411.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 7 Each sheet 42 is disposed on the opposite side of the engaging member 41 opposite to the adjusting hole 411. When the engaging member 41 approaches the heat dissipation pipe 30, each sheet 42 can engage in two of the folds 31. Specifically, each sheet 42 has a first side 421 and a second side 422. The first side 421 is connected to the engaging member 41, and the second side 422 is the side of the sheet 42 away from the engaging member 41. The shape of the second side 422 is arc-shaped and corresponds to the shape of the heat dissipation pipe 30. Specifically, in this embodiment, the outer periphery of the heat dissipation pipe 30 cross-section is circular, so the shape of the second side 422 is arc-shaped. In other embodiments, the shape of the second side 422 can be changed according to the shape of the outer periphery of the heat dissipation pipe 30 cross-section.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 5 to 7The adjusting member 43 is disposed in the adjusting hole 411 of the engaging member 41 and can control the engaging member 41 to move closer to or further away from the heat dissipation pipe 30. In other words, the user can adjust the distance between the engaging member 41 and the heat dissipation pipe 30 and the degree of engagement through the adjusting member 43. Specifically, the adjusting member 43 has a second thread 431 formed on the outer annular surface of the adjusting member 43 and screwed to the first thread 4111. In this embodiment, by screwing the adjusting member 43 to the adjusting hole 411, the user can rotate the adjusting member 43 to move the engaging member 41 closer to or further away from the heat dissipation pipe 30. In other embodiments, the movement method of the engaging member 41 and the connection method between the adjusting member 43 and the adjusting hole 411 are not limited thereto. The adjusting member 43 and the adjusting hole 411 can also be configured to engage with each other, and the engaging member 41 can be moved by pushing and pulling the adjusting member 43.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 4 to 6 The positioning tube 50 is connected to the air outlet 22, and one end of the heat exhaust tube 30 is disposed in the positioning tube 50, and the fixing component 40 passes through the positioning tube 50. In this embodiment, the positioning tube 50 is tubular; in other embodiments, the shape of the positioning tube 50 is not limited thereto.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figures 4 to 6 The positioning tube 50 has a tube body 51, a stop 52, and a limiting part 53. The tube body 51 surrounds the heat dissipation tube 30, and the fixing component 40 passes through the tube body 51. One end of the stop 52 is connected to the tube body 51 and extends away from the air outlet 22, and the tube wall of the heat dissipation tube 30 is disposed between the tube body 51 and the stop 52. Specifically, the tube wall of the heat dissipation tube 30 is disposed between the stop 52 and the fixing component 40. When the engaging member 41 approaches the heat dissipation tube 30 and the plate 42 engages with the fold 31 of the heat dissipation tube 30, the engaging member 41 pushes the heat dissipation tube 30 against the stop 52. This prevents the engaging member 41 from getting too close to the heat dissipation pipe 30, or the heat dissipation pipe 30 from deforming due to the pushing of the engaging member 41. Specifically, if the engaging member 41 pushes the heat dissipation pipe 30 too much, it may cause the heat dissipation pipe 30 to change from a cylindrical shape to an elliptical cylindrical shape. One end of the limiting part 53 is connected to the pipe body part 51 and extends away from the air outlet 22, and the pipe wall of the heat dissipation pipe 30 is disposed between the pipe body part 51 and the limiting part 53. This allows the heat dissipation pipe 30 to be confined on the positioning tube 50.

[0052] In use, one end of the heat dissipation pipe 30 must first be inserted into the positioning tube 50. Specifically, the pipe wall of the heat dissipation pipe 30 is positioned between the stop part 52 and the fixing component 40, and between the pipe body part 51 and the limiting part 53. Next, the adjusting component 43 is rotated to bring the engaging component 41 closer to the heat dissipation pipe 30 until the plate 42 engages in the folds 31 of the heat dissipation pipe 30, thereby fixing the heat dissipation pipe 30 in the fixing component 40 and the positioning tube 50. Afterward, the user can pull the other end of the heat dissipation pipe 30 out of the heat dissipation hole 11 and install it in a suitable position.

[0053] The advantage of this invention lies in the inclusion of a fixing component 40. When the fixing component 40 approaches the heat dissipation pipe 30, it engages with the folds 31 of the heat dissipation pipe 30, thus securing one end of the heat dissipation pipe 30 to the fixing component 40. Consequently, when the user pulls the heat dissipation pipe 30 out of the housing 10, because one end of the heat dissipation pipe 30 is fixed to the fixing component 40, it prevents the user from pulling out the entire heat dissipation pipe 30 or causing displacement due to excessive force.

[0054] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model's technical solution. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the content of the present utility model's technical solution shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model's technical solution.
