Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to a chassis structure and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Air conditioners are common household appliances used to regulate indoor air temperature and humidity to meet people's requirements for indoor air comfort. The chassis assembly is a crucial load-bearing component of the air conditioner, and its structure and connection reliability directly affect installation stability and operational safety. The chassis assembly consists of a chassis and bases connected by spot welding, with the air conditioner fixed to a bracket or specialized platform via the bases. However, during air conditioner transportation, road conditions can easily cause bumps and vibrations, leading to continuous vibration or even shaking of the air conditioner unit. In this situation, the chassis assembly must simultaneously withstand the vibration impact and the weight of the entire unit. Because the chassis and bases are rigidly spot-welded, this can easily cause chassis cracking and internal pipe leaks, which not only damage the air conditioner's function but also pose safety hazards.

[0060] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0061] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed.

[0062] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure.

Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.

[0063] Air conditioners are common household appliances used to regulate indoor air temperature and humidity to meet people's requirements for indoor air comfort. The chassis assembly is a crucial load-bearing component of the air conditioner, and its structure and connection reliability directly affect installation stability and operational safety. The chassis assembly consists of a chassis and bases connected by spot welding, with the air conditioner fixed to a bracket or specialized platform via the bases. However, during air conditioner transportation, road conditions can easily cause bumps and vibrations, leading to continuous vibration or even shaking of the air conditioner unit. Under these circumstances, the chassis assembly must simultaneously withstand the vibration impact and the weight of the entire unit. Because the chassis and bases are rigidly spot-welded, under this dual load, cracks can easily appear in the chassis. In severe cases, this can lead to leaks in the internal piping of the air conditioner, thereby not only disrupting its normal operation but also posing a safety hazard.

[0064] To address the aforementioned technical issues, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, this application embodiment provides a chassis structure, including a chassis 10, a base 20, and a connecting component 30; the chassis 10 includes a chassis body 110 and a side wall 120, the side wall 120 being disposed around the edge of the chassis body 110; the base 20 is connected to the bottom of the chassis body 110 and extends to the outside of the side wall 120 to form a mounting corner with the side wall 120; the connecting component 30 is located at the mounting corner, one end of the connecting component 30 is connected to the side wall 120, and the other end is configured to be able to be connected to an external bracket together with the base 20; wherein, the connecting component 30 is configured to undergo elastic deformation to buffer and dampen vibration.

[0065] Therefore, the elastically deformable connecting component 30 can effectively absorb the impact load generated by bumps and vibrations during the transportation of the air conditioner. On the one hand, it significantly improves the impact resistance of the chassis 10 and offsets the stress generated inside the chassis 10 due to impact, fundamentally avoiding the problem of chassis 10 cracking caused by rigid connection between chassis 10 and base 20. On the other hand, it can reduce the intensity of vibration transmission to the air conditioner and internal pipes, reducing the risk of pipe leakage, thereby ensuring the integrity of product structure and function and safety of use. In addition, by extending the base 20 to the outside of the side wall 120 to form a mounting corner, the connecting component 30 is set at the mounting corner and connected to the external bracket together with the base 20. This not only expands the connection points between the chassis structure and the external bracket during transportation and optimizes the stress on the chassis structure, making the stress distribution on the chassis 110 more uniform and avoiding overload in a single area, but also improves the stability and vibration resistance during transportation, reduces the impact of vibration during transportation, thereby reducing the probability of damage to chassis 10 and air conditioner, and improving reliability and user experience.

[0066] It should be noted that the chassis 10 and the base 20 are connected by welding, including but not limited to spot welding.

[0067] It should also be noted that the chassis 10 can be used to support the air conditioner body, and the panel 110 and the side wall 120 are connected by means of sheet metal integral molding, including but not limited to.

[0068] It should also be noted that the external bracket is the bracket used by the air conditioner during transportation. It can be a wooden bracket. Wooden brackets have the advantage of being lightweight. In addition, using wooden brackets during transportation can not only help to buffer and reduce vibration, but also reduce hard collisions with the chassis structure due to vibration during transportation, thus avoiding collision damage.

[0069] like Figures 5-9 As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting component 30 includes a rigid support 310 and an elastic buffer 320; the rigid support 310 includes a first support portion 3101 and a second support portion 3102 connected to the first support portion 3101, the first support portion 3101 and the second support portion 3102 have a preset included angle, the first support portion 3101 is detachably connected to the side wall 120 and the second support portion 3102 is detachably connected to the base 20; the elastic buffer 320 is arranged at an angle and its two ends are respectively connected to the first support portion 3101 and the second support portion 3102.

[0070] The connecting component 30 provides both load-bearing and vibration damping functions. Specifically, the rigid support 310 provides rigid support for the connection between the chassis 10 and the base 20, ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the chassis 10 assembly for the air conditioner body and effectively resisting deformation. Simultaneously, the elastic buffer 320, arranged between the first support 3101 and the second support 3102, absorbs the impact and vibration energy during transportation through its elastic deformation, preventing excessive deformation of the connecting component 30 and thus reducing the vibration load easily transmitted at the rigid connection between the chassis 10 and the base 20. The detachable connections of the first support 3101 and the second support 3102 to the side wall 120 and the base 20, respectively, facilitate maintenance and replacement, and allow for the reuse of the connecting component 30. The inclined arrangement of the elastic buffer 320 adapts to and buffers vibration impacts from multiple directions, thereby better bearing and dispersing the relative forces generated by vibration and reducing stress concentration in a single area.

[0071] It should be noted that, as Figure 2 As shown, the height direction is parallel to the Z direction, the width direction is parallel to the Y direction, and the length direction is parallel to the X direction; where, as Figure 9 As shown, the preset included angle is α, and the preset included angle α can be 90°; the included angles between the elastic buffer 320 and the height direction and the width direction are both less than 90°.

[0072] It should also be noted that the first support part 3101 and the second support part 3102 are connected by means of integral sheet metal forming, including but not limited to.

[0073] It should also be noted that the connecting component 30 is used during transportation. Once it arrives at its destination, the connecting component 30 needs to be removed. The connecting component 30 is reusable.

[0074] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the first support 3101 includes a first main body section 3103 and a cantilever section 3104; the first main body section 3103 extends along the height direction; the cantilever section 3104 is connected to one end of the first main body section 3103, and the cantilever section 3104 is configured to be suspended on the side wall 120.

[0075] By constructing the cantilever section 3104 to be suspended on the side wall 120, not only is the assembly difficulty reduced and the installation efficiency improved, but the range of adaptability is also expanded, making it compatible with various specifications of chassis 10 side walls 120, thus improving the versatility of the connecting component 30.

[0076] It should be noted that, as Figures 1-4 As shown, the first main body segment 3103 abuts against the side wall 120, thereby further improving the reliability of the connection.

[0077] It should also be noted that in some embodiments, fasteners can be used to replace the cantilever section 3104. For example, a first mounting hole is provided on the first main body section 3103, and a second mounting hole is provided on the side wall 120, which is coaxial with the first mounting hole. Fasteners pass through the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole in sequence to fix the connecting component 30 to the side wall 120 together.

[0078] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the second support portion 3102 includes a second main body segment 3105 and a transition segment 3106; the second main body segment 3105 extends along the width direction and is provided with a main mounting hole 3109 for connecting with the base 20; the transition segment 3106 is arranged at an angle and its two ends are respectively connected to the first main body segment 3103 and the second main body segment 3105, the transition segment 3106 and the first main body segment 3103 have a first transition angle, and the transition segment 3106 and the second main body segment 3105 have a second transition angle; wherein, the first main body segment 3103 and the second main body segment 3105 have a preset angle.

[0079] By setting the transition section 3106, the first transition angle, and the second transition angle, the force transmission path can be optimized. This allows the stress generated by vibration and impact during transportation to be buffered and transferred to the first main body section 3103 and the second main body section 3105 via the inclined transition section 3106. This avoids direct stress concentration at the connection point between the first main body section 3103 and the second main body section 3105, reducing the risk of cracking due to sudden stress changes and further enhancing the load-bearing capacity and impact resistance of the connecting assembly 30. In addition, the transition section 3106 also compensates for positional deviations, reduces fitting difficulty, and ensures that the first support part 3101 is connected to the side wall 120 and the second support part 3102 is connected to the base 20.

[0080] It should be noted that the second main body section 3105 abuts against the base 20, thereby further improving the reliability of the connection.

[0081] It should also be noted that, such as Figure 9 As shown, the first transition angle is β and the second transition angle is θ. Both the first transition angle β and the second transition angle θ are greater than 90°.

[0082] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 20 is provided with a secondary mounting hole 210, which is coaxially arranged with the main mounting hole 3109; wherein, the connecting component 30 includes a fastener, which passes through the main mounting hole 3109 and the secondary mounting hole 210 in sequence to connect the connecting component 30 and the base 20 together to the external bracket.

[0083] By connecting the connecting component 30 and the base 20 together to the external bracket using fasteners, the impact load during transportation can be transferred to the external bracket, reducing the load pressure that the weld joint of the chassis 10 and the base 20 needs to bear, and preventing the chassis 10 from cracking due to long-term overload at the weld joint. In addition, by connecting the connecting component 30, the base 20 and the external bracket simultaneously with a single fastener, the assembly process can be simplified and the work efficiency can be improved.

[0084] It should be noted that the external bracket is provided with transport mounting holes, which are coaxially arranged with the secondary mounting hole 210; fasteners include, but are not limited to, screws, bolts, and studs.

[0085] It should also be noted that the secondary mounting hole 210 is provided on the base 220.

[0086] like Figure 5 , Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the elastic buffer 320 includes a plurality of stepped portions 3201 connected in sequence; wherein the stepped portions 3201 have a bending angle.

[0087] By incorporating a stepped section 3201 with a bend angle, the stepped section 3201 becomes a deformable unit. During transportation, when vibration or impact loads are applied, elastic deformation preferentially occurs at the bend angle, converting kinetic energy into elastic potential energy. Simultaneously, by utilizing multiple stepped sections 3201 to form a multi-level buffer structure, the load can be sequentially transmitted along the connected paths of the stepped sections 3201, with the load decreasing at each level. This effectively achieves vibration reduction, buffering, and stress relief, reducing the risk of chassis 10 cracking. Furthermore, the stepped section 3201 not only provides buffering functionality through the bend angle but also provides sufficient rigid support through its main structure, preventing irreversible plastic deformation of the elastic buffer component 320 due to long-term stress.

[0088] It should be noted that, as Figure 5 As shown, the step portion 3201 includes a first stage 3202 and a second stage 3203. The upper end of the first stage 3202 is connected to the second stage 3203. The second stage 3203 is parallel to the width direction. There is a bending angle between the first stage 3202 and the second stage 3203, wherein the bending angle is greater than 90°.

[0089] It should also be noted that the angle between the elastic buffer 320 and the height direction is equal to the angle between the first stage 3202 and the height direction.

[0090] like Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the first support portion 3101 is provided with a first embedding groove 3107, and the second support portion 3102 is provided with a second embedding groove 3108, wherein the two ends of the elastic buffer 320 are respectively embedded in the first embedding groove 3107 and the second embedding groove 3108.

[0091] The first embedding groove 3107 and the second embedding groove 3108 provide limiting cavities for both ends of the elastic buffer 320, constraining the position of the elastic buffer 320 in multiple directions. This prevents the elastic buffer 320 from sliding or misaligning due to reciprocating deformation under vibration and impact conditions, thereby improving the connection reliability between the elastic buffer 320 and the first support part 3101 and the second support part 3102. At the same time, the first embedding groove 3107 and the second embedding groove 3108 provide fixed fulcrums for the elastic buffer 320, enabling the elastic buffer 320 to undergo elastic deformation in a preset deformation direction, preventing non-preset deformation, and protecting the base 20 and the chassis 10.

[0092] It should be noted that the first embedding groove 3107 is disposed in the first main body section 3103, and the second embedding groove 3108 is disposed in the second main body section 3105; the elastic buffer 320 is not limited to being connected to the first support part 3101 and the second support part 3102 by welding.

[0093] like Figures 10-12 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 20 includes a base 220 and a protrusion 230; the protrusion 230 is disposed on the base 220, and a plurality of first preset welding positions 240 are provided on the top of the protrusion 230; a plurality of first positioning portions 250 are disposed on the top of the protrusion 230 and correspond one-to-one with the plurality of first preset welding positions 240, and the first positioning portions 250 are disposed at the corresponding first preset welding positions 240; wherein, the bottom of the disc body 110 is provided with a plurality of second preset welding positions 1102 and second positioning portions 1101, the plurality of second preset welding positions 1102 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of first preset welding positions 240, and the second preset welding positions 1102 are connected to the corresponding first preset welding positions 240; the plurality of second positioning portions 1101 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of first positioning portions 250, and the second positioning portions 1101 cooperate with the corresponding first positioning portions 250.

[0094] During transportation, the spot welded joints between the chassis 10 and the base 20 often crack due to inconsistent deformation between the two. Specifically, when the air conditioner shakes back and forth, the edges of the chassis 10 deform, creating a pulling effect on the spot welded joints at the base 20, ultimately leading to cracking at the weld. To solve this problem, a first positioning part 250 and a second positioning part 1101 corresponding to the first preset welding position 240 are provided to effectively disperse the deformation at the spot welded joints. The first positioning part 250 and the second positioning part 1101 absorb some of the stress, preventing stress concentration at the spot welded joints and making the stress distribution around the spot welded joints more uniform, thereby improving the structural strength of the chassis 10 and enhancing the stability and durability of the entire chassis structure. At the same time, the cooperation of the first positioning part 250 and the second positioning part 1101 enables rapid positioning and alignment of the base 20 and the chassis 10 before welding.

[0095] It should be noted that the protrusion 230 is welded to the disk body 110, and multiple first preset welding positions 240 can be provided on the protrusion 230. These multiple first preset welding positions 240 are arranged at intervals along the width direction. Each first preset welding position 240 includes one or more solder points. These solder points can be arranged in a matrix of multiple rows and columns, or circumferentially around the same center, with the first positioning part 250 positioned at the center of the solder points. It can be understood that the solder points of the second preset welding position 1102 correspond one-to-one with the solder points of the first preset welding positions 240 to meet welding requirements; for example, as... Figure 10 As shown, the protrusion 230 is provided with two first preset welding positions 240, which are arranged at intervals along the width direction. Each first preset welding position 240 is provided with four first welding points 2401, which are arranged circumferentially around the same center. The first positioning part 250 is located at the center of the four first welding points 2401. At the same time, the second preset welding position 1102 on the disk body 110 is also provided with four second welding points 1103, and the second positioning part 1101 is located at the center of the four second welding points 1103.

[0096] It should also be noted that there are multiple bases 20, and these multiple bases 20 are arranged at intervals along the length direction; such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, there are two base feet 20, which are arranged at intervals along the length direction. It can be understood that corresponding first positioning parts 250 can be provided in all first preset welding positions 240, or corresponding first positioning parts 250 can be provided only in some welding positions, while other first preset welding positions 240 are not provided.

[0097] It should also be noted that the protrusion 230 can be arranged to extend continuously along the width direction, or it can be arranged as follows: Figure 10As shown, the protrusions 230 are arranged discontinuously along the width direction.

[0098] It should also be noted that the base 220 extends along the width direction, and both ends of the base 220 extend to the outer side of the sidewall 120 to form mounting corners; such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the base 220 and the side wall 120 form four mounting corners, and each mounting corner is provided with a connecting component 30.

[0099] like Figures 10-12 As shown, in some embodiments, the first positioning part 250 is a positioning boss, and the second positioning part 1101 is a positioning groove, with the shapes of the positioning boss and the positioning groove matching; or the first positioning part 250 is a positioning groove, and the second positioning part 1101 is a positioning boss, with the shapes of the positioning boss and the positioning groove matching.

[0100] The positioning boss and positioning groove restrict the degrees of freedom between the chassis 10 and the base 20 in multiple directions, thereby achieving fast and reliable positioning. At the same time, the positioning boss and positioning groove can form a larger transition area, effectively dispersing stress and avoiding stress concentration at the weld point.

[0101] It should be noted that the positioning boss includes, but is not limited to, one or more of the following: a cubic boss and a cylindrical boss; furthermore, when multiple first positioning portions 250 are provided on the protrusion 230, some of the first positioning portions 250 may be positioning bosses, and others may be positioning grooves; for example... Figure 10 As shown, when two first positioning parts 250 are provided on the protrusion 230, one of the first positioning parts 250 is a positioning boss and the other first positioning part 250 is a positioning groove.

[0102] It should also be noted that the positioning boss and positioning groove can be formed by pressing.

[0103] To further illustrate the beneficial effects of the chassis structure of this application, a simulation analysis was performed on the chassis structure provided in this application. Loads and boundary conditions were applied to the chassis structure, resulting in the following... Figure 13 The simulation effect diagram shown is from Figure 13 It is known that the maximum stress value after the connection component 30 is installed is 89MPa, which is much less than the risk value of 235MPa. Therefore, it can be seen that the present application can effectively absorb the impact load caused by bumps and vibrations during the transportation of the air conditioner through the elastically deformable connection component 30, thereby improving the stability and vibration resistance during transportation, reducing the impact of vibration during transportation, and reducing the probability of damage to the chassis 10 and the air conditioner.

[0104] This application also provides an air conditioner, including the chassis structure provided in any embodiment of this application.

[0105] It should be noted that the air conditioner also includes the air conditioner unit, which is mounted on the chassis 10; the air conditioner unit is the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.
