Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of freezer technology, specifically to an installation structure for a freezer evaporator. Background Technology

[0002] Freezers are refrigeration or freezing equipment specifically designed for commercial establishments such as supermarkets, beverage shops, hotels, and restaurants. They are primarily used for storing ice cream, beverages, dairy products, frozen foods, and other ingredients. Their features include professional temperature control and an appealing design, often employing single or multiple layers of transparent glass doors (except for kitchen refrigerators) to facilitate a clear view of the contents and promote sales.

[0003] A freezer typically houses an evaporator, while other components of the refrigeration system, such as the condenser, compressor, and expansion valve, are usually mounted on an external bracket via a frame, commonly referred to as the outdoor unit. However, currently, the evaporator in freezers is generally installed directly at the bottom of the freezer interior, resulting in prolonged contact with condensate and thus affecting its lifespan. Therefore, an improved technology is urgently needed to address this problem in existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an installation structure for a freezer evaporator to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, comprising a freezer body and an evaporator. The bottom of the interior of the freezer body is a slope, and several bosses are provided at the bottom of the interior of the freezer body. The upper surfaces of the bosses are all horizontal, and screws are vertically welded to the upper surfaces of the bosses. Mounting plates are provided on both sides of the evaporator, and through holes are provided on the mounting plates. The positions of the mounting plates and the screws correspond one-to-one. The screws pass through the through holes of the corresponding mounting plates. A nut is provided above and below the screw on each mounting plate, and the two nuts are respectively fastened to the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting plates by washers.

[0006] Preferably, the present invention provides an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, wherein a plurality of reinforcing plates are provided between the mounting plate and the evaporator.

[0007] Preferably, the present invention provides an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, wherein the freezer body has a drain hole at the bottom of the inclined surface.

[0008] Preferably, the present invention provides an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, wherein side plates are provided at both ends of the freezer body, and a bottom plate is provided between the two side plates.

[0009] Preferably, the present invention provides an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, wherein a first vertical plate and a second vertical plate are provided between the two side plates in a vertical direction.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: The bottom of the main body of the freezer is sloped, with two sets of four protrusions on the slope. The upper surface of each protrusion is horizontal and welded with a screw. The two sides of the evaporator are respectively connected to the screws by mounting plates. Each screw is fastened to the corresponding mounting plate by two nuts and two washers. This raises the evaporator to prevent the bottom of the evaporator from being in long-term contact with condensate, thereby improving the service life of the evaporator. It also makes it easier to adjust the height of the evaporator, greatly improving flexibility. Attached Figure Description

[0014] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: an installation structure for a freezer evaporator, including a freezer body 1 and an evaporator 2. The bottom of the interior of the freezer body 1 is inclined, and a drain hole 9 is provided at the bottom of the inclined surface to allow condensate to drain. Several bosses 3 are provided at the bottom of the interior of the freezer body 1. The upper surface of each boss 3 is horizontal, and a screw 4 is vertically welded to the upper surface of each boss 3. Mounting plates 5 are provided on both sides of both ends of the evaporator 2. Several reinforcing plates 8 are provided between the mounting plates 5 and the evaporator 2 to ensure the structural strength of the mounting plates 5 and thus ensure the stability of the evaporator 2. Each mounting plate 5 has a through hole, and the positions of the mounting plates 5 and the screws 4 correspond one-to-one. The screws 4 pass through the through holes of the corresponding mounting plates 5. A nut 6 is provided above and below each of the screws 4. The two nuts 6 are fastened to the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting plates 5 respectively by washers 7.

[0015] The main body 1 of the freezer has side panels 10 at both ends and a bottom plate 11 between the two side panels 10 to ensure that the refrigeration area inside the main body 1 of the freezer is separated from the evaporator. A first vertical plate 12 and a second vertical plate 13 are arranged between the two side panels 10 and in a vertical direction. The first vertical plate 12 and the second vertical plate 13 form a cold air flow channel, allowing the cold air from the evaporator to enter the main body 1 of the freezer along the cold air flow channel.

[0016] Installation Method and Operating Principle: First, weld the four bosses 3 with welded screws 4 to the inclined surfaces inside the freezer body 1 according to the dimensions of the evaporator 2. The four bosses 3 are arranged in pairs. Next, screw a nut 6 onto each screw 4 and then fit a washer 7 on top. Then, align the mounting plates 5 at both ends of the evaporator 2 with each screw 4, and support the mounting plates 5 on the washers 7 of each screw 4. Fit the remaining four nuts 6 and washers 7 onto the screws 4. Adjust the nuts 6 on each screw 4 to make the evaporator 2 horizontal and at a suitable height, completing the connection between the evaporator 2 and the freezer body 1. The evaporator 2 is also connected to the main refrigeration components such as the compressor, condenser, and expansion valve via pipes. The compressor, condenser, and expansion valve are all mounted on the external frame of the freezer. Finally, connect the base plate 11 to the two side plates 10, positioning the base plate 11 above the evaporator 2. This utility model has a reasonable structure. The bottom of the interior of the freezer body 1 is sloping, and two sets of four protrusions 3 are set on the sloping surface. The upper surface of each protrusion 3 is a horizontal surface and is welded with a screw 4. The two sides of the evaporator 2 are respectively connected to the screw 4 through mounting plates 5. Each screw 4 is fastened to the corresponding mounting plate 5 through two nuts 6 and two washers 7. First, raising the evaporator 2 can avoid the bottom of the evaporator 2 from being in long-term contact with condensate, thereby improving the service life of the evaporator 2. Second, it is convenient to adjust the height of the evaporator 2, greatly improving flexibility.

[0017] Any aspects of this utility model not described in detail are well-known technologies to those skilled in the art.
