Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner bracket technology, specifically to a shockproof bracket for air conditioner pipes. Background Technology

[0002] In commercial buildings, industrial plants, and residential buildings, air conditioning pipes (such as refrigerant pipes and condensate pipes) are a vital part of the entire air conditioning system. To ensure the stability and safety of the piping system and prevent sagging, deformation, or damage due to its own weight, supports must be used to reliably fix it to the building structure, such as walls, floors, or ceilings. Especially in situations with high vibration control requirements, such as precision machine rooms, hospitals, or earthquake-prone areas, pipe supports must not only provide load-bearing functions but also possess good seismic performance to ensure the safe operation of the air conditioning system during external vibrations or earthquakes.

[0003] In current engineering practice, conventional supports for fixing air conditioning ducts typically employ a simple, rigid connection method. A typical construction involves using angle steel, channel steel, or custom-made metal components to create an L-shaped or U-shaped support frame, which is then directly and securely anchored to the building's concrete wall or ceiling using expansion bolts. The air conditioning ducts are then tightly secured to the support frame using pipe clamps or U-bolts. The technical principle behind this design is purely mechanical support, aiming to construct a high-strength, high-rigidity fixed structure that directly transfers the entire weight and stress of the ducts to the building structure. Its design goal is to maximize resistance to static loads and prevent displacement.

[0004] However, the fundamental structural flaws of this traditional bracket system, which relies entirely on expansion bolts for rigid fixation, become glaringly apparent when subjected to dynamic loads, particularly vibrations caused by earthquakes or equipment resonance. The primary problem lies in the fact that its rigid connection characteristic means it lacks any buffering or energy absorption capabilities. When a building vibrates, the vibrational energy is transmitted directly to the anchor points through the rigid bracket without any attenuation. The load on the expansion bolts instantly transforms from static tensile and shear forces into high-frequency, reciprocating impact loads. Under such impact, the expansion bolts are highly susceptible to loosening, fatigue, or even gradual pull-out from the wall, ultimately causing the entire bracket to detach from its installation position. This can lead to serious accidents such as pipe ruptures and refrigerant leaks, severely threatening the safety and seismic reliability of the air conditioning system. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a shock-resistant bracket for air conditioning pipes, thereby solving the problem that conventional brackets for fixing air conditioning pipes are directly rigidly connected to the building structure using expansion bolts. Under vibration, these conventional brackets are prone to detaching from the building structure, leading to damage to the air conditioning pipes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a shock-absorbing bracket for air conditioning pipes, comprising a crossbar and a mounting clamp connected to the crossbar for fixing the air conditioning pipes, and further comprising:

[0007] The buffer and vibration damping connection mechanism has multiple connections at both ends of the crossbar. These multiple buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms are distributed in different directions and are all used to connect to the main building structure.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0009] The anti-vibration bracket for this air conditioning duct mainly consists of crossbars, mounting clamps, and buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms. Under vibration conditions, multiple buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms on each end of the crossbar can buffer and dampen vibration in different directions, solving the problem that traditional brackets are only fixed by expansion bolts and are prone to falling off when subjected to vibration, thus improving the stability and safety of air conditioning duct installation.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments:

[0017] like Figure 1As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a shockproof support for air conditioning pipes, including a crossbar 1, an installation hoop 18 connected to the crossbar 1 and used to fix the air conditioning pipes, and a buffer and vibration damping connection mechanism. Multiple buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms are connected to both ends of the crossbar 1. The multiple buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms are distributed in different directions and are all used to connect to the main body of the building.

[0018] The anti-vibration bracket for this air conditioning pipeline mainly consists of a crossbar 1, a mounting clamp 18, and a buffer and vibration damping connection mechanism. In the event of vibration, the mounting clamp 18 transfers the load of the air conditioning pipeline to the crossbar 1, and ultimately to the entire anti-vibration bracket. Multiple buffer and vibration damping connection mechanisms on each end of the crossbar 1 can buffer and dampen vibration in different directions, solving the problem that traditional brackets are easily detached when subjected to vibration due to being fixed only by expansion bolts, thus improving the stability and safety of the air conditioning pipeline installation.

[0019] In this invention, connecting blocks 2 are provided at both ends of the crossbar 1. Each connecting block 2 has multiple non-coplanar connecting surfaces, and multiple buffer and vibration damping connecting mechanisms are connected to these connecting surfaces one by one. Specifically, in this embodiment, each connecting block 2 has two connecting surfaces with a certain included angle on the end away from the crossbar 1. Therefore, the number of buffer and vibration damping connecting mechanisms corresponding to one end of each crossbar 1 is two, which meets the usage requirements.

[0020] To better understand the buffer and vibration damping connection mechanism, we will first optimize its structure; for example... Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, according to another embodiment of the present utility model, the shock-absorbing bracket for an air conditioning pipe includes a housing 3 and a vibration damping component. One end of the housing 3 is formed with a connecting tongue 5 connected to a crossbar 1. The vibration damping component is disposed inside the housing 3 and is connected to an extension structure that is slidably connected to the housing 3. The extension structure extends freely from the other end of the housing 3 and is connected to a connecting tongue 9 for connecting to the main building body.

[0021] In this embodiment, the housing 3 is a cuboid housing 3, which provides an external protective cover and mounting base for the vibration damping component and the extension structure. The extension structure transmits the vibration on the main building to the vibration damping component for buffering and vibration reduction.

[0022] Specifically, the connecting tongue 5 is fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting block 2 using bolts; the connecting tongue 5 serves as a transition connector, transmitting force to the housing 3.

[0023] The vibration damping component is the core part for achieving vibration damping, used to absorb and dissipate vibration energy. It includes a spring damper 6, which is disposed inside the housing 3 and fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 3. The output end of the spring damper 6 is connected to an extension structure. The spring damper 6 converts the kinetic energy of the vibration into heat energy and dissipates it through its internal hydraulic or pneumatic mechanism, thereby achieving the effect of damping and vibration reduction.

[0024] The extension structure includes an extension rod 7, which is slidably disposed within the housing 3, with one end connected to the vibration damping component and the other end connected to the connecting tongue 9. Specifically, one end of the extension rod 7 is connected to the working end of the spring damper 6. When subjected to vibration, the extension rod 7 links the reciprocating motion of the spring damper 6, allowing the extension rod 7 to displace relative to the spring damper 6 within a certain range, thus enabling the spring damper 6 to perform damping and vibration reduction. The connecting tongue 9 is specifically fixed to the building structure using bolts. The connecting tongue 9 is the end connecting the entire support to the building structure, used to fix the support to the building structure.

[0025] To improve the reset capability of the extension rod 7, a reset assembly is provided for the extension rod 7. The reset assembly includes a first spring 8 sleeved on the outside of the extension rod 7. One end of the first spring 8 is connected to the inner wall of the housing 3, and the other end is connected to the extension rod 7. The function of the first spring 8 is to provide a restoring force. After vibration displacement occurs, its tension pulls the extension rod 7 back to its original position. The first spring 8 is sleeved on the outer wall of the extension rod 7, which is a conventional installation method for springs and can effectively utilize space. One end of the first spring 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 3, which provides a fixed force point for the first spring 8. The other end of the first spring 8 is fixedly connected to the extension rod 7, which applies the elastic force of the first spring 8 to the movable extension rod 7. When the extension rod 7 extends, the spring is stretched, thereby generating a pulling force to reset it.

[0026] Furthermore, the housing 3 has several vents 4; specifically, the several vents 4 are arranged linearly at intervals on one side wall of the housing 3. The vents 4 balance the air pressure inside and outside the housing 3, ensuring that the extension rod 7 will not generate additional resistance due to the air pressure difference when sliding, thus ensuring the sensitivity of shock absorption.

[0027] To ensure that the relative position of the mounting clamp 18 on the crossbar 1 can be adjusted according to different environments when fixing the air conditioning pipes, thus meeting usage requirements, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5As shown, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the anti-vibration bracket for an air conditioning pipe has a groove on the crossbar 1 along its axial direction, and a limiting block 10 is formed on the inner wall of the groove along its length direction; both ends of the mounting clamp 18 are connected to sliders 12 that are slidably disposed in the groove and slidably cooperate with the limiting block 10, and an adjustable elastic positioning component is provided between the inner wall of the groove and the two sliders 12 for positioning in an elastic abutment manner.

[0028] In this embodiment, there are two limiting blocks 10 arranged facing each other on the inner wall of the slide groove. The slider 12 has two limiting grooves 13. The two limiting blocks 10 are partially slidably embedded in the two limiting grooves 13. The limiting blocks 10 serve as guide rails for the slider 12 to slide, providing guidance and restriction to ensure that the slider 12 can only reciprocate precisely along the length of the crossbar 1 without rotation or deviation. This can stably change the relative position of the mounting hoop 18 on the crossbar 1. After the position of the mounting hoop 18 is adjusted, the adjustable elastic positioning component positions the two sliders 12 in an elastic abutting manner to make the mounting hoop 18 relatively stable.

[0029] The adjustable elastic positioning component includes a locking block and an elastic engaging part. The locking block is arranged on the inner wall of the slide groove along the length direction of the slide groove and has a plurality of first locking teeth 11 arranged at intervals along its length direction. The elastic engaging part is provided on both sliders 12 and engages with a portion of the plurality of first locking teeth 11.

[0030] The first locking block serves as the mounting carrier for a plurality of first locking teeth 11. The elastic mating parts of the plurality of first locking teeth 11 and the two sliders 12 are all engaged to position the two sliders 12, thereby completing the positioning of the mounting hoop 18.

[0031] Specifically, each of the two sliders 12 has an installation groove on its end face away from the mounting clamp 18. Each elastic mating part includes a limiting plate 14 and a second locking block. The limiting plate 14 is slidably disposed in the corresponding installation groove, and the limiting plate 14 is connected to the bottom of the installation groove by a telescopic rod 15. The telescopic rod 15 is fitted with a second spring 16 that connects the limiting plate 14 and the bottom of the installation groove. The second locking block is connected to the side of the limiting plate 14 away from the telescopic rod 15 and is placed at the opening of the installation groove. On the side of the second locking block away from the limiting plate 14, a plurality of second locking teeth 17 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first locking block for engaging with a portion of a plurality of first locking teeth 11.

[0032] The mounting groove provides space for the installation of the elastic mating part. The limiting plate 14 provides a carrier for the installation of the second locking block and is integrated into one piece. The telescopic rod 15 guides the movement of the limiting plate 14 and the extension and retraction of the second spring 16 to ensure its smooth movement. The second spring 16 provides the elastic force for automatic reset and makes multiple second locking teeth 17 engage with some of the first locking teeth 11 to lock.

[0033] When the mounting hoop 18 is moved to change its position, it is held and slid. At this time, the second locking teeth 17 on both sliders 12 move past the first locking teeth 11, and the second locking teeth 17 and the first locking teeth 11 are unlocked. During this process, the second locking block and the limiting plate 14 slide back and forth along the depth direction of the mounting groove, and the telescopic rod 15 and the second spring 16 reciprocate to adjust. After the mounting hoop 18 slides to the desired position, the second locking block and the limiting plate 14 stop sliding, and the second spring 16 engages the second locking teeth 17 with the first locking teeth 11 to lock it, ensuring that the mounting hoop 18 is relatively stable.

[0034] When using the anti-vibration brackets for this air conditioning duct, the specific procedures are as follows:

[0035] First, install the horizontal bar 1. The connecting blocks 2 at both ends of the horizontal bar 1 are connected to the corresponding connecting tongue 5 by bolts. Then, each connecting tongue 9 is connected to the main building structure (such as the ceiling) by bolts. Next, adjust the position of the mounting clamp 18 relative to the horizontal bar 1 according to the requirements. Then, the air conditioning pipes are installed on the horizontal bar 1 and fixed by the mounting clamp 18.

[0036] When subjected to vibration, the spring damper 6 inside the housing 3 extends, and at the same time, the extension rod 7 extends out of the housing and squeezes the first spring 8. Then, the output end of the spring damper 6 retracts to absorb the energy generated by the vibration. The tension of the first spring 8 drives the extension rod 7 and the spring damper 6 to reset. At the same time, during the extension and reset, the gas inside the housing 3 is released through the vent 4 to make its operation smoother, thereby improving the vibration resistance of the air conditioning pipeline.

[0037] In this utility model:

[0038] First, the spring damper 6 inside the housing 3 extends out, and at the same time, the extension rod 7 extends out of the housing 3 and squeezes the first spring 8. Then, the output end of the spring damper 6 retracts to absorb the energy generated by the vibration. The tension of the first spring 8 drives the extension rod 7 and the spring damper 6 to reset, thereby improving the vibration resistance of the air conditioning pipeline. This solves the problem that traditional brackets are only fixed by expansion bolts and are easy to fall off when subjected to vibration, thus improving the vibration resistance of the air conditioning pipeline.

[0039] Secondly, the slider 12 is pre-positioned by the cooperation of the second locking tooth 17 and the first locking tooth 11 to prevent the slider 12 from sliding freely in the crossbar 1. The locking block 2 that cooperates with the second locking tooth 17 is limited in the mounting groove by the limiting plate 14, and the tension of the second spring 16 supports the second locking tooth 17 to stably engage and position with the first locking tooth 11, thus achieving the effect of pre-positioning the mounting hoop 18. This solves the problem that the anti-vibration bracket is easy to slide freely in the truss when it is fixed, which is inconvenient for installation and fixation, and improves the convenience of the anti-vibration bracket.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
