Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner outdoor unit bracket technology, specifically to a portable air conditioner outdoor unit storage bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Air conditioner outdoor units are usually fixed to the exterior wall of a building by brackets. A common practice is to weld wall-mounted uprights, horizontal brackets and diagonal braces into a triangular support frame using angle steel and other profiles. This structure has good stability in working condition, but its shape is fixed after leaving the factory and its lateral dimensions are large. Installers need to carry it to the outdoor work surface through corridors and windows, which is inconvenient to carry and also occupies transportation and on-site storage space.

[0003] To reduce the volume of transport, some brackets have been developed that can be stacked and folded up by hinged connection of wall-mounted rods, horizontal support rods and diagonal braces, or by installing sliders in the vertical rod grooves and having the diagonal braces drive the sliders to slide to achieve folding. After folding, these solutions are still mostly plate-shaped with two rods touching. When unfolding on site, bolts often need to be tightened to lock the sliders or the angle between the rods. There are many steps involved in high-altitude operations, making it difficult to approach a vertical rod while it is being carried and to move it into the working position simply by sliding it after arriving on site.

[0004] Air conditioner outdoor units are heavy, with their center of gravity located on the outer side of the wall. During operation, they generate an outward torsional moment on the base of the horizontal bracket. When the existing foldable bracket is rotated into the working position, this moment is mostly borne directly by the hinge point and the sliding groove and slider (or roller) pair. The sliding pair is prone to wear and even damage due to long-term load bearing. Relying solely on the slider to slide into place or adding bolts to lock it cannot convert the weight of the outdoor unit into a horizontal component pointing towards the wall to resist the torsion. At the same time, the unfolding angle between the tilting bracket and the horizontal bracket often relies on a single slider to be in place or a single limit. Under the weight of the outdoor unit and the vibration of operation, the included angle of the rods may still regress, indicating insufficient auxiliary limit.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for a portable air conditioner outdoor unit storage bracket that, when stored, is roughly vertical and easy for installers to carry. It can be slid into a triangular working state on-site and can achieve wedge-tight self-stabilization by relying on the weight of the outdoor unit itself in the working state, reducing the force on the sliding pair. At the same time, it can provide auxiliary limit on the angle of the tilt bracket and the horizontal bracket. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that existing air conditioner outdoor unit storage brackets involve many steps during high-altitude operations and are easily damaged by the torsional torque of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: a portable air conditioner outdoor unit storage bracket, including a wall-mounted bracket, an inclined bracket and an outdoor unit horizontal bracket, wherein the air conditioner outdoor unit is fixed on the outdoor unit horizontal bracket, one end of the inclined bracket is hinged to the bottom of the wall-mounted bracket and the other end is hinged to the end of the outdoor unit horizontal bracket.

[0008] A slider is slidably mounted on the wall-mounted bracket. The root of the outdoor unit's horizontal bracket is hinged to the slider. The wall-mounted bracket is equipped with a first support positioning block, and the slider is equipped with a second support positioning block that cooperates with the first support positioning block. When the slider slides to the top of the wall-mounted bracket, it is in the storage state. When the slider slides to the point where the first support positioning block and the second support positioning block are pressed together, it is in the working state.

[0009] Furthermore, the first support positioning block is provided with an inclined surface, and the second support positioning block is provided with an inclined surface. When the first support positioning block and the second support positioning block are pressed together, the inclined surface and the inclined surface are wedged together.

[0010] Furthermore, the wall-mounted bracket is provided with slide rails on both sides, and the slider is provided with rollers that cooperate with the slide rails on both sides.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the wall-mounted bracket is provided with an auxiliary limiting block one, and the root of the inclined bracket is provided with an auxiliary limiting block two. In the working state, the auxiliary limiting block one and the auxiliary limiting block two are pressed together.

[0012] Furthermore, the top of the slider is provided with an outwardly extending auxiliary limiting block three, which abuts against the top surface of the outdoor unit's horizontal bracket in the working state.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0014] When stored, the overall shape is nearly vertical, making it easy for installers to carry. When in operation, simply slide the slider down until the first support positioning block and the second support positioning block are pressed together, and it will switch from the stored state to the working state. It is easy to store and quick to deploy on site.

[0015] In the working state, inclined plane one and inclined plane two are wedged together. The weight of the outdoor unit causes the horizontal component of the inclined plane pressure to point towards the wall-mounted bracket, which is used to resist the torsional moment of the outdoor unit's center of gravity shifting outward on the bracket root, and to reduce the stress on the slide rails and rollers, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the sliding structure.

[0016] In the working state, auxiliary limit block one abuts against auxiliary limit block two, and auxiliary limit block three abuts against the top surface of the outdoor unit's horizontal bracket, thus providing auxiliary limit to the angle of the tilting bracket and horizontal bracket under the weight of the outdoor unit, further improving structural stability.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 1 A portable air conditioner outdoor unit storage bracket includes a wall-mounted bracket 1, an inclined bracket 2, and an outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3. The air conditioner outdoor unit is fixed on the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3. One end of the inclined bracket 2 is hinged to the bottom of the wall-mounted bracket 1, and the other end is hinged to the end of the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3.

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 6 A slider 4 is slidably mounted on the wall-mounted bracket 1. The wall-mounted bracket 1 has slide rails 5 on both sides. The slider 4 has rollers 9 on both sides that cooperate with the slide rails 5. The root of the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3 is hinged to the slider 4. The wall-mounted bracket 1 has a support positioning block 6, and the slider 4 has a support positioning block 2 10 that cooperates with the support positioning block 6. When the slider 4 slides to the top of the wall-mounted bracket 1, it is in the storage state. When the slider 4 slides to the point where the support positioning block 6 and the support positioning block 2 10 are pressed together, it is in the working state.

[0027] Combined with appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 When folded, this device is roughly in the shape of a vertical rod, making it convenient for air conditioner installation workers to carry. During the installation of the outdoor unit, simply slide the slider 4 to make the support positioning block 1 6 and the support positioning block 2 10 press against each other to switch to the working state. Use expansion screws to fix the wall mounting bracket 1 to the exterior wall of the building. In this state, the wall mounting bracket 1, the tilt bracket 2 and the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3 form a triangular structure, and the outdoor unit can be stably supported by fixing it on the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3.

[0028] Combined with appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 6The support positioning block 6 has an inclined surface 7, and the support positioning block 10 has an inclined surface 11. When the support positioning block 6 and the support positioning block 10 are pressed together, the inclined surface 7 and the inclined surface 11 are wedged together. In this state, the weight of the air conditioner outdoor unit causes the horizontal component of the pressure generated by the inclined surface 7 on the inclined surface 11 to point towards the wall fixed bracket 1. This can be used to resist the torsional moment generated at the root of the horizontal bracket 3 of the air conditioner outdoor unit due to the center of gravity of the air conditioner outdoor unit being far away from the building exterior wall, so as to achieve self-stability by relying on the air conditioner outdoor unit, while reducing the force on the slide rail 5 and the roller 9, and reducing the risk of damage to the sliding structure.

[0029] Combined with appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 Appendix Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 The wall-mounted bracket 1 is provided with an auxiliary limiting block 8 at its bottom and an auxiliary limiting block 13 at the base of the inclined bracket 2. In the working state, the auxiliary limiting block 8 and the auxiliary limiting block 13 are pressed together. The top of the slider 4 is provided with an outwardly extending auxiliary limiting block 12. In the working state, the auxiliary limiting block 12 is pressed together with the top surface of the outdoor unit horizontal bracket 3.

[0030] The above structure provides auxiliary limiting of the angles of the tilting bracket 2 and the horizontal bracket 3 during operation. The weight of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner causes the auxiliary limiting block 3 12 to press against the top surface of the horizontal bracket 3 of the outdoor unit, and at the same time causes the auxiliary limiting block 1 8 to press against the auxiliary limiting block 2 13, further enhancing the stability of the device structure.

[0031] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
