Detailed Description

The terminology used in the description section of the present application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments of the application only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

Air conditioning units have a number of pipes therein, which are often secured together by tie-downs with other parts in the air conditioning unit, such as securing plates or the like, as described in the art of adhesive backing. If the tie is in direct contact with the pipe for a long time, the pipe will be worn, and leakage of the pipe will be easily caused. Therefore, in assembling the pipe and the fixing plate, it is generally necessary to cover the pipe with a protector so as to separate the pipe from the band by the protector, thereby protecting the pipe from abrasion of the band. At present, the protection piece commonly used in the air conditioner field mainly comprises a rubber block, a rubber sheet, a heat preservation pipe and a sponge.

Fig. 1 to 3 are schematic views illustrating a rubber block structure under different viewing angles in the related art.

Referring to fig. 1, a rubber block 150 is provided with a through hole 151 and an assembling port 152, the shape of the through hole 151 is adapted to the shape of a pipe (not shown) and the assembling port 152 is opened on the outer wall of the rubber block 150 and communicates with the through hole 151 so that when the rubber block 150 is fitted over the pipe, the pipe can be assembled in the through hole 151 through the assembling port 152 so that the rubber block 150 can be fitted over the outside of the pipe and thus the pipe is spaced from a fixing plate (not shown) when the pipe is connected to the fixing plate.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, a groove 153 is further provided on the outer wall of the rubber block 150, and a tie (not shown) is disposed on the groove 153 to connect the pipe with the structural member 120, so that the pipe can be fixed in the cabinet when the structural member 120 is connected with the cabinet of the air conditioner.

The air conditioner vibrates during operation or transportation, so that the piping installed inside the air conditioner also vibrates. Under prolonged vibration of the pipe, the band is displaced in the groove 153 and even comes out of the groove 153, thereby failing to fix the pipe.

Therefore, this application embodiment provides a flexible protection piece and wait protection piece fixed subassembly, through treating the structure of the flexible protection piece in the protection piece fixed subassembly to improve, can effectually solve when the piping in the hollow equipment of correlation technique is connected with other parts through the ribbon, the ribbon produces the displacement on the protection piece of cover on establishing the piping, leads to the fixed technical problem who inefficacy of piping.

The structure of the flexible guard of the present application will be further described with reference to the drawings and examples.

Fig. 4 illustrates a perspective view of the flexible guard, and fig. 5 illustrates a structural view of the guard fixing assembly.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the flexible shield 140 includes a shield body 141 and a limiting part 142 connected to the shield body 141, the shield body 141 is provided with an assembly hole 1412, and the assembly hole 1412 is configured to pass through the shield 110 so that the shield 110 is passed through the assembly hole 1412, so that the shield body 141 is sleeved outside the shield 110, and the shield 110 is protected by the shield body 141.

Continuing with fig. 4 and 5, the circumferential outer wall 1411 of the protective body 141 is provided with an assembly groove 1413, and the assembly groove 1413 is configured to accommodate the connecting member 130 connecting the protective member 110 and the structural member 120, so as to connect the protective member 110 and the structural member 120 via the connecting member 130, thereby facilitating assembly of the protective member 110 in an air conditioning apparatus or other apparatus via the structural member 120. Moreover, since the protecting body 141 is sleeved outside the to-be-protected member 110, the to-be-protected member 110 and the connecting member 130 can be separated by the protecting body 141, so that the to-be-protected member 110 can be protected by the protecting body 141 while the to-be-protected member 110 is connected with the structural member 120 through the connecting member 130, and the to-be-protected member 110 is prevented from being worn by the connecting member 130.

As can be seen in fig. 4 and 5, the stop 142 is located on a first side 1415 of the mounting groove 1413, and an end of the stop 142 extends toward a second side 1416 of the mounting groove 1413 to block at least a portion of the mounting groove 1413. Therefore, when the to-be-protected piece 110 vibrates, the end part of the limiting part 142 can shield the connecting piece 130 so as to limit the position of the connecting piece 130 in the assembly groove 1413, so that excessive displacement of the connecting piece 130 in the assembly groove 1413 is effectively avoided, the connecting piece 130 is prevented from being separated from the assembly groove 1413 from the depth direction of the assembly groove 1413, and the to-be-protected piece 110 can still be stably fixed on the structural member 120 through the connecting piece 130 when vibrating, and stable assembly of the to-be-protected piece 110 on the structural member 120 is realized.

The flexible protection member 140 may be applied to a pipeline, a connection line or other protection that is connected to the structural member 120 through the connection member 130 and needs protection in an air conditioning apparatus or the like. In this application, the application scenario of the flexible guard 140 is not further limited.

Taking the application of the flexible guard 140 to an air conditioning apparatus as an example, the guard 110 to be protected may be a pipe or a connection line within the air conditioning apparatus. The connection lines may include, but are not limited to, power lines or other electrical connection lines within the air conditioning apparatus. The structural member 120 may be a fixed structure within an air conditioning apparatus, for example, the structural member 120 may be a fixed plate, a steel pipe, or other structure capable of fixing the protective member 110 through the connection member 130 within the air conditioning apparatus.

Referring to fig. 5, the connection member 130 may be a connection band so that the connection member 130 may be wound in the assembly groove 1413 to connect the shield 110 and the structural member 120. Specifically, the connecting member 130 may be a ribbon, a metal plate, or the like. When the connecting piece 130 is a binding belt, the connecting piece 130 can be an existing binding belt with a self-locking function, so that the connecting piece 130 is wound in the assembly groove 1413 of the flexible protection piece 140, and after the protection piece 110 is connected with the structural member 120, the two ends of the connecting piece 130 can be self-locked, thereby realizing quick fixation of the protection piece 110 on the structural member 120. When the connecting member 130 is a metal plate, the connecting member 130 is wound in the assembly groove 1413 of the flexible protection member 140, and after the to-be-protected member 110 is connected with the structural member 120, two ends of the connecting member 130 can be connected by a fastener (such as a screw or a bolt), so as to realize quick fixing of the to-be-protected member 110 on the structural member 120.

It should be noted that, in the present application, the structures of the to-be-protected member 110, the structural member 120, and the connecting member 130 are not further limited.

Therefore, when the to-be-protected member 110 is a pipe of an air conditioner, the flexible protecting member 140 according to the present application can not only protect the pipe to avoid the problems of pipe grinding or leakage and the like caused by the connecting member 130 (such as a tie), but also can effectively avoid the problem that the tie is removed from the mounting groove 1413 due to excessive displacement generated in the groove depth direction of the mounting groove 1413 on the mounting groove 1413 of the flexible protecting member 140 by limiting the limiting portion 142, thereby leading to the fixing failure of the pipe on the structural member 120, so as to ensure the stable assembly of the pipe on the structural member 120.

Accordingly, when the to-be-protected member 110 is a power cord of an air conditioner, the power cord can be protected by the flexible protecting member 140, so that the problems of abrasion and the like of the power cord due to the connecting member 130 are avoided, and the power cord can be stably assembled on the structural member 120 by limiting the limiting portion 142.

With continued reference to fig. 5, in some embodiments, the limiting portion 142 is integrally connected with the protective body 141, that is, the flexible protective member 140 is an integrated structure, so that the connection strength between the limiting portion 142 and the protective body 141 is higher. The flexible guard 140 may be manufactured by an integral molding process such as injection molding, using one or more wear resistant materials.

The wear resistant material may include, but is not limited to, rubber or other wear resistant material having a certain strength. In this application, the flexible guard 140 may include, but is not limited to, a rubber block. Through the setting of rubber block like this, not only can realize treating the effective protection of protector 110, can have certain intensity moreover for flexible protector 140 has longer life, in order to further ensure flexible protector 140 and treat the protective effect of protector 110.

Alternatively, in some embodiments, the limiting portion 142 may be detachably connected to the protection body 141, and in this application, a connection manner between the limiting portion 142 and the protection body 141 is not further limited.

The structure of the flexible guard 140 of the present application will be further described below using rubber blocks as an example.

Referring to fig. 5 in combination with fig. 4, the shape of the fitting groove 1413 is adapted to the shape of the connection member 130, and both groove ends of the fitting groove 1413 extend in opposite directions along the circumferential outer wall 1411 of the shield body 141, so that the connection member 130 can be wound around the circumferential outer wall 1411 of the shield body 141 through the fitting groove 1413, thereby stably connecting the shield member 110 to be shielded 110, which is inserted into the fitting hole 1412, to the structural member 120, and achieving stable assembly of the shield member 110 to the structural member 120.

Moreover, since the shape of the assembly groove 1413 is adapted to the shape of the connection member 130, the movement of the connection member 130 in the groove width direction of the assembly groove 1413 can be limited by the groove wall of the assembly groove 1413, so that the connection member 130 is limited in different directions by being matched with the limiting portion 142, and the connection member 130 is prevented from being separated from the assembly groove 1413 when the protection member 110 vibrates. Among them, the groove width direction of the fitting groove 1413 may refer to the X direction in fig. 5.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, the end portion of the stopper 142 is shielded from at least the middle of the fitting groove 1413 in the groove width direction. Wherein the middle portion may be understood as a middle region of the fitting groove 1413 in the groove width direction, not an edge region, which includes a symmetry center of the fitting groove 1413 in the groove width direction. Since the connection member 130 is generally wound around the middle of the fitting groove 1413, at least the area of the connection member 130 over its own width can be shielded by the end portion of the stopper portion 142 by the restriction of the shielding position of the stopper portion 142 in the fitting groove 1413 in the groove width direction. When the link 130 moves relative to the mounting groove 1413 in a groove depth manner of the mounting groove 1413 along with vibration of the to-be-protected member 110, the limiting portion 142 can have a larger blocking area with the link 130 in terms of bandwidth, thereby preferably limiting the escape of the link 130 from the mounting groove 1413.

Fig. 6 illustrates a schematic structural view of the flexible guard of fig. 4 at a first viewing angle.

Referring to fig. 6 in combination with the illustration of fig. 5, in some embodiments, the end of the limiting portion 142 may extend to the second side 1416 of the assembly groove 1413 to connect the protection body 141, such that the limiting portion 142 spans the groove top of the assembly groove 1413 and forms a sealing groove with the protection body 141 in a sealing structure on the groove top of the assembly groove 1413, and by setting the sealing groove, the connection member 130 can be completely shielded on its own bandwidth, so that a better limiting effect on the connection member 130 by the limiting portion 142 can be achieved, and at the same time, the connection member 130 can be effectively prevented from falling out of the assembly groove 1413 when the to-be-protected member 110 vibrates. Among them, the groove top of the fitting groove 1413 can be understood as a side of the fitting groove 1413 opposite to the groove bottom 1414.

With continued reference to fig. 6, the limiting portion 142 may include a first connecting segment 1421, a second connecting segment 1423, and a limiting segment 1422, where the first connecting segment 1421 is distributed on a first side 1415 of the mounting groove 1413, the second connecting segment 1423 is distributed on a second side 1416 of the mounting groove 1413, and the first connecting segment 1421 and the second connecting segment 1423 are both connected to a circumferential outer wall 1411 of the protective body 141. The limiting section 1422 is connected between the first connecting section 1421 and the second connecting section 1423, and forms an end of the limiting portion 142 with the second connecting section 1423, so that the end of the limiting portion 142 extends to the second side 1416 of the assembly groove 1413, is connected with the protection body 141, and can shield the assembly groove 1413 and the connecting member 130 when forming a sealing groove with the protection body 141.

The flexible guard 140 may be formed by injection molding or the like in a mold. When the limiting portion 142 and the protection body 141 form a sealing groove, if one surface of the limiting portion 142 facing the assembly groove 1413 is an arc surface, due to the structure of the mold and the structural display screen of the flexible protection member 140, when the two sub-molds of the mold are demolded in opposite directions, interference can occur with the arc surface of the limiting portion 142, so that demolding of the mold is affected, and the sealing groove in the flexible protection member 140 is difficult to realize.

Fig. 7 illustrates a cross-sectional view of fig. 6 in the direction A-A.

Referring to fig. 7, a surface of the stopper 142 facing the fitting groove 1413 is a plane. When the two sub-dies of the die are demolded in opposite directions, the position of the two sub-dies, which is matched with the plane of the limiting portion 142, is also in a plane structure due to the arrangement of the limiting portion 142 facing the plane of one face of the assembly groove 1413, so that the two sub-dies can be effectively prevented from interfering with the plane of the limiting portion 142, and the sealing groove in the flexible protection piece 140 can be formed.

It should be noted that, a surface of the limiting portion 142 facing away from the assembly slot 1413 may be an arc surface, so that the limiting portion 142 may form an arc connection block. Alternatively, the surface of the limiting portion 142 facing away from the mounting groove 1413 may be a plane, and in this application, the shape of the surface of the limiting portion 142 facing away from the mounting groove 1413 is not further limited.

Figure 8 illustrates a schematic view of the attachment of the connector to the flexible guard.

Referring to fig. 8, in some embodiments, the end portions of the stopper 142 may also be shielded from the middle of the fitting groove 1413 in the groove width direction. At this time, the limiting part 142 and the protective body 141 form an open groove having an open structure on the groove top of the assembly groove 1413. Since the connection member 130 is generally wound around the middle of the assembly groove 1413, the end of the limiting part 142 can also cover one side edge and the middle area of the connection member 130 on the own band width, so as to prevent the connection member 130 from being removed from the assembly groove 1413 when the protector 110 vibrates.

The structure of the flexible boot 140 of the present application will be further described below with reference to the flexible boot 140 having a seal groove.

Fig. 9 illustrates a schematic structural view of the flexible guard of fig. 4 at a second viewing angle.

Referring to fig. 9, the present application refers to a length L of the limiting portion 142 in the first direction ₁ Length L in the first direction with protective body 141 ₂ The ratio of (c) is not further limited as long as the limit portion 142 is ensured to be capable of realizing the limit of the connector 130. The first direction is a thickness direction of the shield body 141. The thickness direction of the shield body 141 may refer to the Y direction in fig. 9.

In some embodiments, to ensure that the limiting portion 142 has a better limiting effect on the connecting piece 130, the length L of the limiting portion 142 in the first direction ₁ Length L in the first direction with protective body 141 ₂ The conditional expression is satisfied: l (L) ₁ ≥1/3L ₂ . Exemplary, L ₁ ≥1/2L ₂ . So that when the connecting piece 130 moves towards the limiting portion 142 along the groove depth of the assembly groove 1413 and abuts against the limiting portion 142, the limiting portion 142 can have a larger blocking area with the connecting piece 130 in the Y direction, thereby ensuring that the limiting portion 142 has a better limiting effect on the connecting piece 130, and enhancing the anti-falling effect of the limiting portion 142 on the connecting piece 130 in the assembly groove 1413.

As shown in fig. 4, the limiting portion 142 may be located on a side of the protection body 141 away from the structural member 120, so as to avoid interference between the limiting portion 142 and the structural member 120, and ensure connection between the to-be-protected piece 110 and the structural member 120.

Fig. 10 illustrates a schematic structural view of another flexible guard.

In some embodiments, the flexible guard 140 includes a stop 142 (as shown in fig. 9). Alternatively, in other embodiments, referring to fig. 10, the flexible guard 140 may further include at least two limiting portions 142, and the at least two limiting portions 142 are uniformly distributed along the extending direction of the assembly groove 1413. Illustratively, the number of the limiting portions 142 on the flexible guard 140 may be two, three, etc. Thus, the at least two limiting parts 142 are used for blocking different positions of the connecting piece 130, so that the effect of the limiting parts 142 on preventing the connecting piece 130 from falling out in the assembly groove 1413 is further enhanced.

With continued reference to fig. 10, when the flexible shield 140 includes at least two limiting portions 142, the limiting portions 142 on the flexible shield 140 may form at least one of a sealing groove and an open groove with the shield body 141. Illustratively, while the limiting portions 142 may form an open slot with the protective body 141, at least two limiting portions 142 on the flexible protective member 140 may be alternately disposed on the first side 1415 and the second side 1416 of the assembly slot 1413, so that the effect of the limiting portions 142 on the connector 130 from escaping within the assembly slot 1413 is further limited by the at least two limiting portions 142.

Fig. 11 illustrates a schematic structural view of the flexible guard of fig. 4 at a third viewing angle.

Referring to fig. 11, a notch 1417 communicating with the fitting hole 1412 is further provided in the circumferential outer wall 1411 of the shield body 141. Wherein the shape of the fitting hole 1412 is adapted to the shape of the to-be-protected member 110. Specifically, the notch 1417 may be disposed within the fitting groove 1413 such that the notch 1417 communicates with the fitting hole 1412. Notch 1417 may include, but is not limited to, a bar notch. Such that the to-be-protected member 110 can be fitted into the fitting hole 1412 by passing through the notch 1417.
