Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning protection technology, and in particular to an external wall protective cover for air conditioning copper pipes. Background Technology

[0002] An air conditioner is a device that uses artificial means to regulate indoor temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air circulation. Its core function is to exchange heat between indoor and outdoor environments through the circulation of refrigerant, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling or heating. Furthermore, air conditioners typically consist of two parts: an indoor unit and an outdoor unit, connected by copper pipes. They maintain a comfortable air environment in enclosed spaces and are commonly found in homes, offices, shopping malls, and other similar settings.

[0003] Existing air conditioner installations typically require fixing the indoor and outdoor units separately. The connection between the two units is achieved through specialized holes in the wall. This involves first drilling holes in the corresponding locations on both the indoor and outdoor walls. The diameter of these holes is slightly larger than the total diameter of the connecting components, such as the copper pipes and drain pipes (the design of these holes is primarily to provide adequate space for subsequent pipe installation, preventing damage to the components due to compression). Next, the copper pipes, drain pipes, and other components, all wrapped in insulation, are passed through the holes to the outside. These components are then neatly secured with cable ties and connected to the indoor and outdoor units respectively. To prevent rainwater, dust, and insects from entering the room through the gaps in the holes, and to reduce the exchange of hot and cold air between the indoor and outdoor units to improve air conditioner efficiency, the locations of the holes in the wall are usually sealed. Common sealing methods often present the following problems: 1. They usually rely on simple materials such as sealant, but when using sealant, it is prone to cracking and peeling due to temperature changes and rainwater soaking, causing it to lose its ability to block mosquitoes, rodents, and dust in the short term; 2. Sealant is a flat sealant, which allows rainwater to easily seep into the room along the gaps on rainy days, and it cannot prevent cold / hot air from flowing back in, increasing air conditioning energy consumption; 3. For some construction workers, once the indoor and outdoor units of the air conditioner are securely installed, the copper pipes are insulated, and the air conditioner is working properly, they consider their air conditioner installation work complete. However, the traditional method of sealing holes and gaps relies on simple materials such as putty. This means that if air conditioner pipes need to be repaired or replaced later, the hardened old putty must be completely removed, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Construction workers are prone to developing a resistance mentality due to the anticipated "troublesome future maintenance". At the same time, this process has long been regarded as an "additional step" in air conditioner installation and has not been clearly included in the core construction process and acceptance standards. The lack of hard constraints allows construction workers to easily omit it with excuses such as "forgot" or "to be done later" in order to avoid the extra workload of current construction and future maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an air conditioner copper pipe exterior wall protective cover that can greatly improve the reliability of air conditioner use, prevent mosquitoes, rodents, dust and other pests from entering the room, and ensure convenient maintenance in the later stage.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs an air conditioning copper pipe exterior wall protective cover, including a fixing plate and an outer extension. The fixing plate includes an installation side, and the outer extension has a through hole. The outer extension includes an insertion end distributed on one side of the through hole and an outer extension end distributed on the other side of the through hole. The insertion end on the outer extension is connected to the fixing plate and is located on the side away from the installation side. The fixing plate is connected to the outer wall via the installation side, the outer extension covers the hole in the outer wall, and the insertion end of the outer extension is connected to the hole in the outer wall. The connecting component that passes through the hole in the outer wall passes through the insertion end into the through hole and passes through the outer extension end to the outside of the extension. The outer edge of the connecting component is adapted to the inner end of the outer extension end.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing plate and the outer extension are arranged at an angle, the fixing plate is connected to the outer wall through the mounting side, and the outer extension, which is distributed at an angle to the fixing plate, is distributed in an inclined downward manner.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing plate and the outer extension are both distributed separately. The separate fixing plate includes a fixing plate one and a fixing plate two. The outer extension includes an outer extension one cut along the direction of the through hole and an outer extension two. The fixing plate one and the outer extension one are integrally connected to form a protective cover component one. The fixing plate two and the outer extension two are integrally connected to form a protective cover component two that is fitted into the protective cover component one. By fitting the protective cover component one and the protective cover component two together, a protective cover for mounting on an exterior wall is formed.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing plate and the outer extension are integrated into one piece.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the first protective cover component is a protective cover main body component with an interlocking notch; the second protective cover component is a protective cover fitting component that is fitted into the interlocking notch of the protective cover main body component; a slide rail is provided on the edge of the interlocking notch; and a matching slide rail adapted to the slide rail is provided on both sides of the protective cover fitting component. By sliding the matching slide rail on the slide rail or sliding in the opposite direction, the protective cover main body component and the protective cover fitting component are fitted or unfitted, which constitutes a function for forming the protective cover or for disassembling the protective cover before forming it.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the slide rails on the main body of the protective cover are distributed on the first fixing plate, the matching slide rails on the fitting part of the protective cover are distributed on the second fixing plate, the first outer extension has an inwardly recessed portion relative to the upper surface, and the second outer extension has an outwardly protruding portion relative to the upper surface. The fitting of the inwardly recessed portion and the outwardly protruding portion forms the shape for fixing the plate.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the diameter of the inner end of the outer extension is a small-diameter structure suitable for the insertion or protrusion of connecting parts of ordinary air conditioners, or a large-diameter structure suitable for the insertion or protrusion of connecting parts of central air conditioners.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by replacing the sealant used to fill the gaps in the wall holes during the air conditioner installation process with an air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover, that is, when the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover (the material of the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover is preferably metal, and the metal exterior is coated with three-proof paint or has been impregnated with paint and other anti-corrosion and anti-rust measures are optimal) is used for air conditioner installation, the fixing plate on the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover is connected to the outer wall, and the outer extension part connected to the fixing plate and having a through hole covers the hole on the outer wall, and the insertion end on the through hole and the hole on the outer wall are connected by a design scheme. Meanwhile, the inner end of the outer extension adopts a structure that is compatible with the connecting components such as copper pipes and drain pipes that pass through holes to the outside of the air conditioner. Thus, when the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover is involved in the hole where the connecting components need to be inserted, that is, the hole gap after the air conditioner is installed, the mounting side of the fixing plate can be attached to the outer wall and fixed (the preferred method is to drill multiple holes in the outer wall, insert expansion tubes into the holes, and then use the cooperation between the expansion tubes and the fastening screws to install the fixing plate on the outer wall, that is, to securely fix the entire air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover to the outer wall). The corresponding connecting components that pass through the holes can also be adapted to the inner end of the outer extension by the outer edge of the connecting components, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner during use. This means that by using protective covers on the outer walls of air conditioning copper pipes, mosquitoes, rodents, and dust can be blocked from entering the openings. At the same time, it avoids the problems associated with existing sealant, such as cracking and peeling due to temperature changes and rainwater immersion, which can lead to a loss of effectiveness in the short term. It also avoids situations where construction workers may have preconceived notions and develop a resistance to protecting the openings and gaps, resulting in the accidental intrusion of mosquitoes, rodents, dust, etc. during the use of the air conditioner.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] like Figure 1-15As shown, a specific embodiment of this utility model is an external wall protective cover for air conditioning copper pipes, including a fixing plate 2 and an outer extension 1. The fixing plate 2 includes a mounting side 30, and the outer extension 1 has a through hole 10. The outer extension 1 includes an insertion end 101 distributed on one side of the through hole 10 and an outer extension end 102 distributed on the other side of the through hole 10. The insertion end 101 on the outer extension 1 is connected to the fixing plate 2 and is located on the side away from the mounting side 30. The fixing plate 2 is connected to the outer wall via the mounting side 30. The outer extension 1 covers the hole in the outer wall, and the insertion end 101 of the outer extension 1 is connected to the hole in the outer wall. The connecting component that passes through the hole in the outer wall passes through the insertion end 101 into the through hole 10 and passes through the outer extension end 102 to extend outward. The outer edge of the connecting component is adapted to the inner end of the outer extension end 102.

[0015] By replacing the sealant used to fill the gaps in the wall during air conditioner installation with an air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover, when the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover (preferably made of metal, with the metal exterior coated with three-proof paint or subjected to anti-corrosion and anti-rust measures such as impregnation) is used for air conditioner installation, the fixing plate 2 on the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover is connected to the outer wall, and the outer extension 1 connected to the fixing plate 2 and having a through hole 10 covers the hole on the outer wall, and the insertion end 101 on the through hole 10 is designed to be connected to the hole on the outer wall. Meanwhile, the inner end of the outer extension 102 adopts a structure that is compatible with the connecting components such as copper pipes and drain pipes that pass through holes to the outside of the air conditioner. Thus, when the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover is involved in the hole where the connecting component needs to be inserted, that is, the hole gap after the air conditioner is installed, it can be fixed to the outer wall by the mounting side 30 on the fixing plate 2 (the preferred method is to drill multiple holes in the outer wall, insert expansion tubes into the holes, and then use the cooperation between the expansion tubes and the fastening screws to install the fixing plate 2 on the outer wall, that is, to securely fix the entire air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover to the outer wall). The corresponding connecting component that passes through the hole can also be adapted to the inner end of the outer extension 102 through the matching cooperation between the outer edge of the connecting component and the inner end of the outer extension 102, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner during use. This means that by using protective covers on the exterior walls of the air conditioning copper pipes, mosquitoes, rodents, and dust can be blocked from entering the openings. At the same time, it avoids the problems associated with existing sealant, such as cracking and peeling due to temperature changes and rainwater immersion, which can lead to a loss of effectiveness in the short term. It also reduces the likelihood of construction workers having preconceived notions or developing a resistance to protecting the openings and gaps, which could result in the accidental intrusion of mosquitoes, rodents, dust, etc. during the use of the air conditioner.

[0016] like Figure 1-4 As shown in Figures 6, 8, and 15, the fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1 are set at an angle. The fixing plate 2 is connected to the outer wall through the mounting side 30. The outer extension 1, which is angled to the fixing plate 2, is arranged in a downward inclined structural design. This design allows the air conditioning copper pipe outer wall protective cover to be installed on the outer wall to prevent backflow of rainwater. When it is rainy, there will be no backflow of rainwater, which will cause water to enter the room through the holes and gaps in the outer wall. In addition, the inclined design can also effectively block the air circulation between indoors and outdoors, indirectly reducing the energy consumption of air conditioning operation.

[0017] like Figure 1-15As shown, in the design scheme of the fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1, the fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1 can be a one-piece design or a separate design; wherein, when the fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1 are both separate, the separate fixing plate 2 includes a fixing plate 1 21 and a fixing plate 22, and the outer extension 1 includes an outer extension 1 11 cut along the direction of the through hole 10 and an outer extension 2 12. The fixing plate 1 21 and the outer extension 1 11 are integrally connected and form a protective cover component 1. The fixing plate 2 22 and the outer extension 2 12 are integrally connected and form a protective cover component 2 that is fitted into the protective cover component 1. The protective cover component one and the protective cover component two fit together to form a protective cover design for installation on an exterior wall. This design ensures the reliability of the air conditioning copper pipe exterior wall protective cover. The fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1 are both separately distributed, allowing for installation after new air conditioning installation (without the need for sealant) or after repairs (traditional air conditioning installation involves sealant, which must be thoroughly removed during repairs). Specifically, the air conditioning copper pipe exterior wall protective cover is first disassembled into protective cover component one and protective cover component two for the corresponding holes on the exterior wall. Then, expansion is performed on the exterior wall at the locations of the fixing holes for protective cover component one and protective cover component two. The pipe is pre-embedded. Subsequently, the protective cover component one is first fixed with a portion of the screws to mate with the expansion tube, thus securing it to the exterior wall. After installation, one portion of the through hole 10 on the protective cover component one is adjacent to the connecting component. Later, the corresponding protective cover component two is fitted onto the protective cover component one. At this point, the other portion of the through hole 10 on the protective cover component two is also adjacent to the connecting component, completing the assembly of the through hole 10. After the through hole 10 is assembled, the other portion of the fixing screws on the protective cover component two mates with the corresponding expansion tube, thus securing the protective cover component two to the exterior wall. This completes the installation of the protective cover for the split-type air conditioner copper pipe on the exterior wall. Assembly on the exterior wall is also a preferred design of this utility model. Compared with the preferred design, the fixing plate 2 and the outer extension 1 can be a one-piece design. Although it can achieve the same protective effect as the separate design, it is more cumbersome to install. After the connecting parts pass through the holes in the exterior wall, they must first pass through the insertion end 101 of the through hole 10 and then connect to the air conditioner outdoor unit. If the air conditioner has been installed, and if the installation of the air conditioner copper pipe exterior wall protective cover is required, the connection between the connecting parts and the air conditioner outdoor unit must be disassembled before the corresponding installation can be carried out. Therefore, the design of the outer extension 1 being a one-piece design is the secondary design of this utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1-2As shown in Figure 5-14, the first protective cover component is a main body of the protective cover with a fitting notch 40, and the second protective cover component is a protective cover fitting component that fits into the fitting notch 40 of the main body of the protective cover. A slide rail 211 is provided on the edge of the fitting notch 40, and a matching slide rail 221 adapted to the slide rail 211 is provided on both sides of the protective cover fitting component. Through the sliding action or reverse sliding action of the matching slide rail 221 on the slide rail 211, the main body of the protective cover and the protective cover fitting component are fitted or unfitted, which constitutes a design for the forming of the protective cover or for the disassembly before the forming of the protective cover. This can further ensure the reliable fitting / assembly between the first protective cover component and the second protective cover component, and also ensure that the through hole 10 of one part of the protective cover component and the through hole 10 of the other part of the protective cover component can make reliable contact with the connecting parts.

[0019] like Figure 1-2 As shown in Figure 5-14, the slide rails 211 on the main body of the protective cover are distributed on the first fixing plate 21, and the matching slide rails 221 on the fitting part of the protective cover are distributed on the second fixing plate 22. The first outer extension 11 has an inwardly recessed portion 111, and the second outer extension 12 has an outwardly protruding portion 121. The fitting of the inwardly recessed portion 111 and the outwardly protruding portion 121 forms a design for the forming of the fixing plate 2, which can ensure the reliability of the sliding movement between the main body of the protective cover and the fitting part of the protective cover, and also ensure the reliability of the fitting / assembly between the first outer extension 11 and the second outer extension 12. After fitting / assembly, no part of the connecting parts will be exposed to the outside, achieving seamless installation without the need for additional filling.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown in Figures 6 and 8, the inner end of the outer extension 102 has a small diameter structure suitable for the insertion or protrusion of connecting parts for ordinary air conditioners, or a large diameter structure suitable for the insertion or protrusion of connecting parts for central air conditioners. This design enables the air conditioner copper pipe outer wall protective cover involved in this utility model to be designed with two outlet specifications to meet the differences in pipe systems for ordinary air conditioners and central air conditioners, accurately adapting to the usage needs of different pipe systems. This also greatly expands the applicability of this utility model and can meet the protection requirements of most existing air conditioners.
