Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of connection technology for household appliances, specifically disclosing a household appliance compressor flange with integrated heat dissipation function. It includes a flange frame mounted on a support leg, divided into an upper frame and a lower frame according to their vertical position. Multiple upper plates are mounted on the upper frame, contacting the outer wall of the compressor, while multiple lower plates are fixedly mounted on the lower frame. The integrated heat dissipation flange provided by this utility model allows for adjustment of the ventilation area through the adjustable distance between the upper and lower frames, adapting to high heat dissipation requirements. The multiple copper upper plates, directly contacting the compressor, directly absorb heat and cool it through airflow.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the connection technology of household appliances, specifically a flange for a household appliance compressor with integrated heat dissipation function. Background Technology

[0002] Home appliance compressors are typically mounted on the inner wall of the appliance using square or rectangular flanges. To allow for heat dissipation during compressor operation, a certain gap is usually left between the flange and the inner wall of the appliance.

[0003] For example, the publication (announcement) number: CN205744348U, publication (announcement) date: 2016-11-30, discloses a high-performance flange for a household appliance compressor, including a flange body, a central shaft hole, and multiple mounting through holes located on the same circumference of the flange body between the outer circumference of the flange body and the outer circumference of the central shaft hole. An elastic wear-resistant layer is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the central shaft hole, and the elastic wear-resistant layer has a flange at the end face of the central shaft hole. The flange forms an annular boss on the outer circumference of the central shaft hole, and multiple annular positioning grooves are spaced apart on the end face of the annular boss. The flange body is made of powder metallurgy. It is used for sealing and positioning connections between flange assemblies, improving the sealing effect, and also preventing the flange body separated from the elastic wear-resistant layer from sliding off the elastic wear-resistant layer. This ensures that the flange assembly maintains its strength and rigidity while improving its sealing performance, wear resistance, and safety performance, and also improves the working efficiency of the compressor.

[0004] The shortcoming of the existing technology is that, considering the limited installation space of the compressor in the home appliance, the space left is not enough to achieve efficient heat dissipation when dealing with high temperature weather and load conditions. Therefore, some home appliances will also install fans in the ventilation position to dissipate the heat generated during the operation of the compressor. However, the heat will accumulate around the compressor and act on the flange position, causing the components and metal at the connection position to be severely heated. This can easily aggravate the thermal fatigue of the connection components, thereby generating a certain thermal stress, causing damage to the parts, and affecting the stability of the compressor installation connection. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a household appliance compressor flange with integrated heat dissipation function to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A home appliance compressor flange with integrated heat dissipation function includes a compressor with support legs and a flange frame installed on the support legs. The flange frame is divided into an upper frame and a lower frame according to its vertical position. Multiple upper plates that abut against the outer wall of the compressor are installed in the upper frame.

[0008] Multiple lower plates are fixedly installed in the lower frame, and the distance between the upper and lower plates is adjustable.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the flange frame is provided with mounting holes that communicate with the openings of the support legs.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: the mounting hole is specifically a rounded rectangle.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution, it also includes bolts that move in the mounting holes.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: a gasket located outside the bolt is provided between the upper frame and the lower frame.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: the upper plate and the lower plate are misaligned.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: the upper frame sidewall has symmetrically distributed side openings.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution: the lower frame is provided with an inner opening that communicates and cooperates with the side opening.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution: the flange frame is specifically a stainless steel metal frame.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution: the upper plate is specifically a copper metal plate.

[0018] In the above technical solution, the appliance compressor flange with integrated heat dissipation function provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: the ventilation area can be adjusted by the adjustable distance between the upper and lower frames to adapt to high heat dissipation requirements, while multiple copper upper plates that directly contact the compressor can directly absorb heat and cool it down by air blowing. Similarly, the copper lower plate can absorb the heat of the air inside the flange frame and then cool it down by air blowing, increasing the heat dissipation area and heat absorption capacity, making the air blowing cooling efficiency higher, and reducing the heat transferred to the connection position of the support leg and the flange frame, thus protecting the connection position and enabling the equipment to operate stably for a long time.

[0026] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution, including the following embodiments:

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This embodiment provides a double-layer frame, namely flange frame 2, based on the original rectangular flange. The flange frame 2 has an adjustable ventilation area by means of the adjustable spacing between the upper frame 21 and the lower frame 22, in order to adapt to high heat dissipation requirements. The multiple copper upper plates 4 that are in direct contact with the compressor 1 can directly absorb heat and cool it down by airflow. Similarly, the copper lower plate 5 can absorb the heat from the air inside the flange frame 2 and then cool it down by airflow. This increases the heat dissipation area and heat absorption capacity, making the airflow cooling more efficient. This results in less heat being transferred to the connection between the support leg and the flange frame 2, thus protecting the connection and enabling the equipment to operate stably for a long time.

[0030] Specifically, the upper plate 4 is convex in shape to compensate for the length required for direct contact. The number of upper plates 4 and lower plates 5 is the same, and they are fixed by welding or screws, or any fixing method known to those skilled in the art, thereby effectively ensuring the area required for heat absorption and installation stability.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Combination Figure 2and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a connection method for the upper frame 21 and the lower frame 22. The height and distance between the two are adjusted by using alloy annular metal shims 31 in an adjustable number, and bolts 3 are used to pass through the upper frame 21 and the lower frame 22 and then threadedly connected to the inner wall of the home appliance. This ensures stable installation of the compressor 1 and the flange frame 2 by the bolts 3, and the parts used are easier to manufacture and the cost can be controlled.

[0033] Secondly, the use of rounded rectangular mounting holes 20 allows the upper frame 21 and lower frame 22 to be relatively translated, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the upper plate 4 and lower plate 5, causing the two plates to be misaligned, thus increasing the dispersion effect when airflow enters between the two plates. At the same time, it does not affect the distance between the upper frame 21 and lower frame 22 after installation, ensuring the lateral flow area of ​​airflow.

[0034] Example 3

[0035] Combination Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a redirection path for vertical airflow. When the vertical airflow passes through the upper frame 21, it is guided by the side opening 211 on the side wall of the upper frame 21, allowing more airflow to pass through, ensuring the airflow entering between the upper plate 4 and the lower plate 5, thus guaranteeing cooling capacity. Subsequently, the airflow enters the upper arc surface of the inner opening 221 downwards, causing the airflow to actively flow down the arc surface to the lower plate 5, allowing the lower plate 5 to play a greater role.

[0036] Specifically, the horizontal cross-section of the side opening 211 is arc-shaped, allowing for greater vertical airflow. The vertical cross-section of the inner opening 221 is fan-shaped, and its curved surface can guide the airflow.

[0037] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
