Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an outdoor unit. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, outdoor units on the market have fewer heat exchange surfaces in their condensers, resulting in lower heat exchange efficiency. Furthermore, the internal space utilization of outdoor units is low, requiring external refrigerant drive equipment, which results in a larger space requirement and can easily affect the air intake of the outdoor unit. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the shortcomings of existing outdoor units, such as the small heat exchange surface of the condenser, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency, low utilization of the internal space of the outdoor unit, the need for external refrigerant drive equipment, resulting in a large space occupation and easy to affect the air intake of the outdoor unit, and to provide an outdoor unit.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an outdoor unit, including a frame, a U-shaped condenser disposed within the frame, and a fan assembly disposed at the top of the frame; an energy-saving component is also disposed within the frame, the energy-saving component being detachably connected to the installation space formed by the U-shaped condenser and the frame through a sliding structure, a sealing plate and several protective structures are disposed on the side of the frame, and a control component is disposed on the sealing plate. By utilizing a U-shaped condenser, the fins can be increased within the same floor space, effectively increasing the number of heat exchange surfaces and air inlet surfaces. This allows for air intake and heat exchange from three sides (left, right, and rear), thereby significantly improving the heat exchange and air intake efficiency of the outdoor unit. Furthermore, by installing energy-saving components within the installation space formed by the U-shaped condenser and the frame through a sliding structure, the space utilization within the frame can be effectively improved. This ensures the ease of installation, replacement, and maintenance of energy-saving components while preventing them from affecting the air intake of the U-shaped condenser if installed on the outside of the frame. In addition, by using a sealing plate located on the side of the frame and placing the control components on the sealing plate, single-sided maintenance of the control components can be effectively achieved, improving the convenience of maintenance operations. Several protective structures can effectively ensure the safety of the U-shaped condenser within the frame.
[0005] Furthermore, a stop is provided within the frame to limit the movement of the U-shaped condenser. The U-shaped condenser includes two side heat exchange surfaces and a top heat exchange surface located between the two side heat exchange surfaces. The stop effectively improves the positioning accuracy of the U-shaped condenser within the frame and prevents it from wobbling. Moreover, the two side heat exchange surfaces of the U-shaped condenser effectively increase the number of heat exchange surfaces and air inlet surfaces, enabling air intake and heat exchange from the left, right, and rear sides, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange efficiency and air intake efficiency of the outdoor unit.
[0006] Furthermore, the side heat exchange surface of the U-shaped condenser is fixedly connected to the frame via locking components, and the top heat exchange surface is pressed into the frame by the fan assembly. By using bolts, studs, and pins to fix the side plates of the U-shaped condenser's side heat exchange surface to the frame's columns, the stability of the U-shaped condenser installed within the frame can be effectively provided. Furthermore, using the fan assembly to press the top heat exchange surface into the frame further enhances the stability of the U-shaped condenser installed within the frame and prevents it from wobbling within the frame.
[0007] Furthermore, the fan assembly includes a support member for pressing the top heat exchange surface of the U-shaped condenser into the frame, and a plurality of fans disposed on the support member. In the embodiment provided by this utility model, two fans are disposed on the support member, thereby blowing the heat-exchanged air out of the outdoor unit and improving the blowing efficiency. In other possible embodiments, one or more fans may be disposed on the support member to meet the usage requirements in different application scenarios. By utilizing the support member, the stability of the U-shaped condenser installed in the frame can be effectively ensured, and the stability of the fans installed on the frame can be improved.
[0008] Furthermore, the fan assembly also includes an air guide cavity disposed between the fan and the support member. By utilizing the air guide cavity, the distance between the U-shaped condenser and the fan inlet can be effectively increased, thereby effectively reducing the obstruction effect of the U-shaped condenser on the fan inlet, improving the fan's blowing efficiency, and the air guide cavity can effectively guide the air within the frame, thereby further improving the fan's blowing efficiency.
[0009] Furthermore, sealing cotton is provided between the support member and the top heat exchange surface of the U-shaped condenser. The use of sealing cotton effectively prevents air leakage between the support member and the top heat exchange surface of the U-shaped condenser, thus ensuring the airtightness between them and further guaranteeing the heat exchange efficiency of the U-shaped condenser and the blowing efficiency of the fan.
[0010] Furthermore, the sliding structure includes a groove and a positioning block disposed within the frame, and the energy-saving component has several fasteners for fixed connection with the frame. When the energy-saving component needs to be replaced or maintained, the locking state between the fasteners and the frame support is released, and the energy-saving component is pulled outward, causing it to move along the direction set by the groove. This allows the energy-saving component to be removed from the groove, effectively ensuring the displacement accuracy of the energy-saving component when sliding within the frame. Furthermore, the positioning block effectively improves the positioning accuracy of the energy-saving component installed within the frame. In addition, the pump in the energy-saving component has a high maintenance rate; therefore, the pump and the entire energy-saving component are also configured with a sliding connection structure, thereby effectively improving the convenience of pump maintenance. In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the energy-saving component can drive the refrigerant for cooling when the outdoor temperature is low. In other possible embodiments, the energy-saving component is an optional structure; the energy-saving component can be omitted, or a mode in which the energy-saving component and the indoor unit compressor system work simultaneously can be adopted for energy saving and emission reduction.
[0011] Furthermore, the control component is an electrical control box, and the protective structure is a protective mesh. Utilizing the electrical control box effectively improves the control precision of energy-saving components and U-shaped condensers within the outdoor unit. Furthermore, by placing the control component on the sealing plate, single-sided maintenance of the control component can be effectively achieved, improving the convenience of maintenance operations. Finally, the three protective meshes located on the side of the U-shaped condenser effectively ensure the safety of the U-shaped condenser within the frame.
[0012] Furthermore, the protective mesh has several through holes, forming an air inlet for connecting the U-shaped condenser to the external environment. The air inlet formed by the through holes in the protective mesh can further improve the air intake efficiency of the U-shaped condenser.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the outdoor unit provided by this utility model are as follows: By utilizing a U-shaped condenser, the fins can be increased within the same floor space, effectively increasing the number of heat exchange surfaces and air inlet surfaces, achieving air intake and heat exchange from the left, right, and rear sides, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange efficiency and air intake efficiency of the outdoor unit; Furthermore, by installing energy-saving components within the installation space formed by the U-shaped condenser and the frame through a sliding structure, the space utilization rate within the frame can be effectively improved, while ensuring the convenience of installation, replacement, and maintenance of energy-saving components, and avoiding the situation where energy-saving components installed on the outside of the frame affect the air intake of the U-shaped condenser; In addition, by using a sealing plate set on the side of the frame and placing the control components on the sealing plate, the operation of unilateral maintenance of the control components can be effectively realized, improving the convenience of maintenance operations, and the safety of the U-shaped condenser within the frame can be effectively guaranteed by using several protective structures.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0027] See Figure 1-5The outdoor unit 100 provided by this utility model includes a frame 10, a U-shaped condenser 20 disposed within the frame 10, and a fan assembly 30 disposed on the top of the frame 10. An energy-saving component 40 is also disposed within the frame 10. The energy-saving component 40 is detachably connected to the installation space formed by the U-shaped condenser 20 and the frame 10 through a sliding structure. A sealing plate 11 and several protective structures 12 are disposed on the side of the frame 10. A control component 50 is disposed on the sealing plate 11. By utilizing the U-shaped condenser 20, the fins can be increased within the same floor space, effectively increasing the number of heat exchange surfaces and air inlet surfaces. This allows for air intake and heat exchange from the left, right, and rear sides, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange and air intake efficiency of the outdoor unit 100. Furthermore, by installing the energy-saving component 40 within the installation space formed by the U-shaped condenser 20 and the frame 10 through a sliding structure, the space utilization rate within the frame 10 can be effectively improved. This ensures the ease of installation, replacement, and maintenance of the energy-saving component 40 while preventing the energy-saving component 40 from being installed on the outside of the frame and affecting the air intake of the U-shaped condenser 20. In addition, by using the sealing plate 11 located on the side of the frame 10 and placing the control component 50 on the sealing plate 11, the operation of maintaining the control component 50 on one side can be effectively realized, improving the convenience of maintenance operations. The safety of the U-shaped condenser 20 within the frame 10 can be effectively ensured by using several protective structures 12.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a stop 13 is provided within the frame 10 to limit the U-shaped condenser 20. The U-shaped condenser 20 includes two side heat exchange surfaces 21 and a top heat exchange surface 22 disposed between the two side heat exchange surfaces 21. By using the stop 13, the positioning accuracy of the U-shaped condenser 20 within the frame 10 can be effectively improved, and the swaying of the U-shaped condenser 20 within the frame 10 can be avoided. Furthermore, the two side heat exchange surfaces 21 and the top heat exchange surface 22 of the U-shaped condenser 20 can effectively increase the number of heat exchange surfaces and air inlet surfaces, achieving air inlet and heat exchange from the left, right, and rear sides, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange efficiency and air inlet efficiency of the outdoor unit 100.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the side heat exchange surface 21 of the U-shaped condenser 20 is fixedly connected to the frame 10 by locking components, and the top heat exchange surface 22 is pressed into the frame 10 by the fan assembly 30. By using bolts, studs, and pins to fix the side plate of the side heat exchange surface 21 of the U-shaped condenser 20 to the column of the frame 10, the stability of the U-shaped condenser 20 installed in the frame 10 can be effectively provided. Furthermore, by using the fan assembly 30 to press the top heat exchange surface 22 into the frame 10, the stability of the U-shaped condenser 20 installed in the frame 10 can be further improved, and the swaying of the U-shaped condenser 20 within the frame 10 can be prevented.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the fan assembly 30 includes a support member 31 for pressing the top heat exchange surface 22 of the U-shaped condenser 20 into the frame 10, and a plurality of fans 32 disposed on the support member 31. In the embodiment provided by this utility model, two fans 32 are disposed on the support member 31, thereby blowing the heat-exchanged air out of the outdoor unit 100 and improving the blowing efficiency. Figure 6 As shown, in other possible embodiments, one or more fans 32 can be installed on the support member 31 to meet the usage requirements in different application scenarios. By utilizing the support member 31, the stability of the U-shaped condenser 20 installed within the frame 10 can be effectively ensured, and the stability of the fans 32 installed on the frame 10 can be improved.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the fan assembly 30 also includes an air guide cavity 33 disposed between the fan 32 and the support member 31. The air guide cavity 33 effectively increases the distance between the inlet of the U-shaped condenser 20 and the fan 32, thereby effectively reducing the obstruction effect of the U-shaped condenser 20 on the inlet of the fan 32, improving the blowing efficiency of the fan 32. Furthermore, the air guide cavity 33 effectively guides the air within the frame 10, further improving the blowing efficiency of the fan 32. Sealing cotton is provided between the support member 31 and the top heat exchange surface 22 of the U-shaped condenser 20. The sealing cotton effectively prevents air leakage between the support member 31 and the top heat exchange surface 22 of the U-shaped condenser 20, thus ensuring the airtightness between the support member 31 and the top heat exchange surface 22, and further ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the U-shaped condenser 20 and the blowing efficiency of the fan 32.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the sliding structure includes a slide groove 41 and a positioning block 42 disposed within the frame 10. The energy-saving component 40 has several fixing members 43 for fixed connection with the frame 10. When it is necessary to replace or maintain the energy-saving component 40, the locking state between the fixing members 43 and the frame 10 bracket is released, and the energy-saving component 40 is pulled outward, so that the energy-saving component 40 moves along the direction set by the slide groove 41, thereby realizing the operation of removing the energy-saving component 40 from the slide groove 41 and effectively ensuring the displacement accuracy of the energy-saving component 40 when sliding within the frame 10. Furthermore, by using the positioning block 42, the positioning accuracy of the energy-saving component 40 installed within the frame 10 can be effectively improved. In addition, the pump in the energy-saving component 40 has a high maintenance rate, so the pump in the energy-saving component 40 and the whole energy-saving component 40 are also set as a sliding connection structure, thereby effectively improving the convenience of pump maintenance operations. In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the refrigerant can be cooled by the energy-saving component 40 when the outdoor temperature is low. In other possible embodiments, the energy-saving component 40 is an optional structure, and the energy-saving component 40 is omitted or the energy-saving component 40 and the indoor unit compressor system work simultaneously to save energy and reduce emissions.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the control component 50 is an electrical control box, and the protective structure 12 is a protective mesh. The electrical control box effectively improves the control accuracy of components such as the energy-saving component 40 and the U-shaped condenser 20 within the outdoor unit 100. Furthermore, by mounting the control component 50 on the sealing plate 11, single-sided maintenance of the control component 50 can be effectively achieved, improving the convenience of maintenance. The three protective meshes located on the sides of the U-shaped condenser 20 effectively ensure the safety of the U-shaped condenser 20 within the frame 10. The protective meshes have several through holes, forming air inlets for connecting the U-shaped condenser 20 to the external environment. The air inlets formed by the through holes in the protective meshes further improve the air intake efficiency of the U-shaped condenser 20.
[0034] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
