Description

  The present invention relates to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner, and more particularly to an improvement in a structure for attaching a handle to a housing.

  Even in an outdoor unit of an air conditioner, a handle for hooking a worker's fingers is required during transportation. Usually, the casing is made of sheet metal or resin mold, and in order to simplify the structure, a handle is manufactured separately from the casing, and the completed handle is attached and fixed to the casing.

  For example, [Patent Document 1] discloses a structure in which a bag handle for transportation is attached to an insertion hole provided in a surface panel (outer case) in a housing. A feature of the present invention resides in that an elastic latching piece having a function of draining rainwater is integrally attached to a joint portion between the lower portion of the handle and the surface panel.

  [Patent Document 2] discloses a handle made of a resin molded product, which has a substantially rectangular flat surface portion, and has a convex shape in the front of the central portion on the surface side of the flat surface portion. A finger-hanging portion is provided. The said finger-hanging part has secured the dimension which can carry a finger to the 2nd joint of a finger.

  A feature of the present invention is that an opening is provided in the side plate of the outdoor unit, and tongue pieces are provided on the upper and lower edges of the opening, while an engagement piece is provided on the inner surface side of the flat portion of the handle. Then, after the handle is pressed against the side plate opening, the handle is slid left and right to engage the tongue piece and the engagement piece, and the handle is attached to the side plate.

  However, the handle of [Patent Document 1] protrudes into the housing, and the size of the housing is increased as much as the length necessary for hooking fingers is secured. Furthermore, when the handle is held, the entire weight of the outdoor unit is applied from the handle to the top plate. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the strength by increasing the thickness of the top plate. On the other hand, this leads to an increase in cost.

  The handle of [Patent Document 2] can reduce the load by dispersing the total weight of the outdoor unit when the handle is held from the handle to the top plate and the side plate. However, since a plurality of tongue pieces are provided on the side plate and a plurality of engagement pieces are provided on the handle, these structures become complicated and the cost for processing the mold and parts increases, and the flat portion of the handle is placed on the side plate surface. It is greatly exposed and the appearance is damaged.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the above circumstances, and its object is to facilitate the attachment workability of the handle while maintaining the simplification of the shape structure of the side plate and the top plate constituting the housing. Therefore, the present invention is intended to provide an outdoor unit for an air conditioner having a handle structure that can improve the safety by distributing the load during transportation.

  In the outdoor unit of the air conditioner according to the present invention, the casing constituting the outer shell is fitted to and fixed to the side plate by fitting to the main body portion having the side plate and the bottom surface portion and the top surface opening, and the upper end of the side plate of the main body portion. The top plate is provided with a peripheral portion and a top plate that closes the top surface, the handle is interposed between the peripheral portion of the top plate and the upper end of the side plate, and the side plate has an opening at a lower part spaced from the upper edge. The top plate includes a pair of inclined sides inclined in a substantially C shape from the lower edge of the peripheral edge portion, and a notch portion including an upper side parallel to the top surface portion across the upper end, and the handle is in an assembled state. A finger hook for projecting outward from the side plate and the peripheral edge of the top plate and hooking a finger; a receiving projection having a stepped portion extending upward from a base end of the finger hook and engaging with a notch portion of the top plate; Engagement that extends downward from the base end of the finger rest and is inserted into the opening of the side plate It has a part.

  According to the present invention, the shape and structure of the top plate and the side plate are simplified, and the handle mounting workability is facilitated, and when the outdoor unit is lifted by grasping the handle, the total weight of the outdoor unit is calculated. It is intended to provide an outdoor unit of an air conditioner that can be dispersed to obtain improved safety.

  That is, the finger-hanging portion 20 has a concave shape with the lower surface opened so that the width dimension and the protruding amount are sufficient for the operator's fingers to be inserted from the lower surface side. All the corners and corners of the finger-hanging portion 20 are formed in a curved cross section so as not to be a burden on the inserted finger.

  The receiving protrusion 21 has a stepped portion 24 protruding toward the back side at a predetermined distance from the base end of the finger-hanging portion 20 upward and obliquely upward. The step portion 24 is composed of a pair of inclined sides f inclined in a substantially C shape from the lower end and an upper side g extending between the upper ends of these inclined sides f, and these dimensional shapes are provided on the top plate peripheral portion 5a. It is the same as the shape dimension of the notch part 14 to be formed.

  Moreover, the protruding amount of the stepped portion 24 is the same as the protruding amount of the stepped portion 3a at the upper end of the side plate 3, and the thickness dimension of the curved portion c at the lower end of the top plate peripheral portion 5a is also the same. The back side from the step part 24 is a flat part 21a, and the flat part 21a protrudes slightly above the upper side g of the step part 24 and protrudes to the side from the inclined side f.

  The left and right side portions of the flat portion 21a extend vertically further from the upper end, and a pair of hooking pieces 21b that are curved toward the back at the tip are integrally provided. That is, each of the hooking pieces 21b has a claw shape.

  A pair of spacers 25 are attached to the inner surface side of the flat portion 21a above the upper side g of the stepped portion 24 so as to be separated from each other on the left and right. These spacers 25 have substantially the same thickness as the side plates 3, have a laterally long shape in the width direction as compared with a slight vertical dimension, and are mounted apart from each other.

  The engaging protrusion 22 includes a horizontal piece 22a that protrudes in the horizontal direction once from the base end of the finger-hanging portion 20, and a hanging piece 22b that is bent vertically downward at the protruding end of the horizontal piece 22a. Yes.

  In particular, as shown in FIG. 4B, a latching recess h is provided in the width direction on the outer surface side of the hanging piece 22b. The latching concave portion h is formed in a vertical dimension and a depth dimension in which the upper plate portion 3b fits from the lower side b formed to be recessed in the side plate step portion 3a.

  As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4C, a plurality of vertical ribs 26 are formed on the inner surface of the engagement protrusion 22 along the left-right width direction of the engagement protrusion 22, and They are arranged side by side in the vertical direction.

  In other words, these vertical ribs 26 protrude from the lower end of the hanging piece 22b constituting the engaging protrusion 22 and extend upward, extend upward from the upper surface of the horizontal piece 22a, and the inner surface of the receiving protrusion 21 Via the lower surface of the flat portion 21a. In addition, there is one that protrudes from the midway part of the hanging piece part 22b and is connected to the lower surface of the flat part 21a via the horizontal piece part 22a and the receiving projection part 21.

  Auxiliary ribs 27 are integrally projected in the left-right width direction at a substantially intermediate portion in the vertical direction of the inner surface of the hanging piece 22b. The lower end of the vertical rib 26 provided from the middle part of the latter hanging piece 22b is connected to the auxiliary rib 27. Further, the former vertical rib 26 provided from the lower end of the hanging piece 22 b is provided so as to intersect with the auxiliary rib 27.

  Here, the vertical ribs 26 whose lower ends are connected to the auxiliary ribs 27 are provided at the left and right side portions and the central portion of the hanging piece portion 22b. Two vertical ribs 26 whose lower ends are at the same position as the lower ends of the hanging piece portions 22b and whose middle portions intersect the auxiliary ribs 27 are provided between the left and right side portions and the central vertical rib 26, respectively.

  At the lower ends of the vertical ribs 26 on both sides, a horizontal rib 28 having a substantially semicircular cross section is integrally projected along the thickness of the hanging piece 22b. Further, both side portions of the hanging piece portion 22b on the slightly lower side of the horizontal ribs 28 are provided with cut step portions 22c inside each other. Both side portions of the hanging piece portion 22b are formed to be inclined inwardly from the cut step portion 22c toward the lower end.

  The step portions 26a are formed on all the vertical ribs 26 in a portion where the predetermined dimension A exists upward with respect to the cut step portion 22c. The dimension A from the cut step 22 c to the step 26 a of the vertical rib 26 is the same as the vertical dimension A of the side plate opening 12.

  The distance dimension B from the outer surface of the longitudinal rib 26 on the most side (left side) to the outer surface of the other side (right side) longitudinal rib 26 is the same as the lateral width B of the side plate opening 12. Therefore, the hanging piece portion 22b is formed to be larger than the left and right width dimension B of the opening 12 by the amount of protrusion of the left and right lateral ribs 28.

  The step 26 a of the vertical rib 26 is provided at a position facing the inner surface of the receiving projection 21, and from the inner surface of the receiving projection 21 on the lower side from the step 26 a rather than the upper side from the step 26 a. The projecting dimension of is large. In addition, in the lower end part of drooping piece part 22b, this outer side surface is formed in the taper surface i which inclines so that it may be located inside in the downward direction.

Below, the assembly procedure of the handle 10 with respect to the housing | casing 1 which comprises the outdoor unit S of an air conditioner is demonstrated.
FIG. 5 is a view for explaining the procedure for attaching the handle 10 to the side plate 3. FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the side plate 3 as seen from the outer surface side with the handle 10 attached to the side plate 3. FIG. It is the perspective view seen from the side.

  First, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower end of the hanging piece portion 22 b of the handle 10 is inclined to the back side, the hook piece 21 b of the receiving projection 21 is inclined to the front side, and the lower end of the hanging piece portion 22 b is opened to the opening of the side plate 3. 12, the hanging piece 22 b is inserted into the opening 12 as it is.

  At this time, the lower end of the drooping piece 22b is a tapered surface i, and the left and right sides of the drooping piece 22b are inclined obliquely inwardly toward the lower end, so that the drooping piece 22b is formed in the side plate opening 12. The work during insertion can be performed smoothly.

  When the hanging piece 22b is completely inserted into the opening 12, the handle 10 is rotated in the direction indicated by the arrow R. When the handle 10 becomes substantially vertical, the handle 10 is moved downward to hook the hook piece 21b on the upper edge of the plate portion 3b of the side plate 3. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the handle 10 stands in the vertical direction along the plate portion 3 b of the side plate 3.

  In this state, the hooking piece portion 21b of the handle 10 is hooked to the upper edge of the plate portion 3b of the side plate 3, and the pair of spacers 25 attached to the inner surface of the flat portion 21a are in close contact with the plate portion 3b. Naturally, a gap corresponding to the thickness of the spacer 25 is formed between the inner surface portion of the flat portion 21a to which the spacer 25 is not attached and the outer surface portion of the plate portion 3b.

  At the same time, the engaging protrusion 22 of the handle 10 is inserted and fitted into the opening 12 of the side plate 3. That is, since the dimension A from the cut step 22c to the step 26a of the vertical rib 26 and the vertical dimension A of the opening 12 are the same, the vertical rib step 26a abuts the upper edge of the opening 12, The cut step 22c contacts the lower end edge of the opening 12.

  Further, since the dimension B between the outer surfaces of the vertical ribs 26 on both the left and right sides and the left and right width dimension B of the opening 12 are the same, the vertical ribs 26 on the left and right sides are fitted into the left and right side edges of the opening 12. Here, since the horizontal ribs 28 are provided at the lower ends of the vertical ribs 26 on the left and right side portions, the horizontal ribs 28 are fitted into the left and right side edges of the opening 12.

  In particular, as shown in FIG. 7, from the side plate opening 12 to the inner surface side of the side plate 3, the vertical rib 26 portion on the lower side from the step portion 26 a, a part of the receiving projection 21, and the level of the engaging projection 22 The piece 22a and the hanging piece 22b protrude. A portion of the hanging piece portion 22b on the lower side from the cut step portion 22c protrudes downward beyond the lower edge of the opening 12 and is in close contact with the inner surface of the side plate 3.

  Although not shown here, a part of the plate portion 3b of the side plate 3 is fitted into the latching recess h formed on the front surface of the handle engaging protrusion 22. If it demonstrates, only the board part 3b above the lower side b formed in the step part 3a will partially engage the latching recessed part h. Therefore, precisely, the cut step 22c and the latching recess h are latched at the lower end edge of the opening 12.

  In this way, the handle 10 has the hook side 21b hooked to the upper end of the side plate 3 and the constituent portions of the engaging protrusions 22 are fitted to the entire peripheral edge of the side plate opening 12, whereby the handle 10 is 3 is densely attached with no play in the horizontal direction as well as the vertical direction. Thereafter, the top plate 5 is placed on the upper end of the side plate 3 from above.

8 is a partial perspective view of the side plate 3 covered with the top plate 5. FIG. 9 is a partial vertical sectional view of the side plate 3 covered with the top plate 5. As shown in FIG.
The peripheral portion 5 a of the top plate 5 is opposed to the upper portion of the side plate 3 and is lowered to cover the upper end of the side plate 3. The lower end of the entire circumference of the peripheral edge 5a excluding the notch 14 provided on the top peripheral edge 5a is placed on the step 3a of the side plate 3, and the outer surface of the peripheral edge 5a and the outer surface of the side plate 3 are flush with each other.

  The recessed portion 15 provided in the top plate peripheral portion 5a faces the screw seat 13 provided in the side plate portion 3b, and the screw hole 13a of the screw seat 13 and the mounting hole 15a of the recessed portion 15 face each other. A separately prepared fixture 9 (shown only in FIG. 1) is inserted into the mounting hole 15a and screwed into the screw hole 13a, so that the top plate 5 is securely attached and fixed to the side plate 3.

  At this time, since the handle 10 is already securely attached and fixed to the side plate 3, the handle 10 does not get in the way when the top plate peripheral edge 5 a is fitted into the upper end of the side plate 3. It goes without saying that there is nothing.

  By covering the top plate peripheral edge portion 5 a on the upper end of the side plate 3, the notch portion 14 of the top plate peripheral edge portion 5 a is engaged with the stepped portion 24 of the handle receiving projection 21. As described above, the hooking piece 21b is hooked on the upper end of the side plate 3, the spacer 25 of the flat surface portion 21a is in close contact with the outer surface of the side plate 3, the engaging protrusion 22 is fitted into the opening 12, and the hanging piece The plate portion 3b is latched to the latching recess h of the portion 22b.

  In order to carry the completed outdoor unit S, the outdoor unit S is lifted by placing a finger on the finger rest 20 of the handle 10. At this time, a load is applied to the housing 1 via the handle 10. Specifically, structurally, the top plate peripheral portion 5a to which the handle 10 is attached and the side plate 10 are dispersed and loaded, so that safety can be ensured.

  In other words, the notch portion 14 of the top plate peripheral edge portion 5a includes a seemingly inclined side a that is inclined in a substantially C shape, and an upper side b that is parallel to the top surface portion 5b across the upper ends of these inclined sides a. It is formed. The take-off means difference portion 24 is also formed by seemingly inclined sides f that are inclined in a substantially C shape, and an upper side g that is parallel to the upper end of the planar portion 21a across the upper ends of these inclined sides f.

  By lifting the handle 10, a load is applied to the engaging portion between the notch portion 14 and the step portion 24. However, the load is dispersed not only because the upper sides d and g are engaged with each other but also between the left and right inclined sides b and f. The handle 10 and the top plate 5 are not forced and there is no fear of these deformations.

  At the same time, a load is applied to the engaging portion between the engaging protrusion 22 of the handle 10 and the side plate opening 12. Actually, a load is applied to the step portion 26a of the vertical rib 26 constituting the engagement protrusion 22, and a plurality of the vertical ribs 26 are provided at predetermined intervals in the left-right width direction of the engagement protrusion 22. The upper end extends to the upper end of the receiving projection 21.

  Because of such vertical ribs 26, the load is received in a distributed manner, and the side plate 3 is not forced to be pushed together with the handle 10, and there is no fear of these deformations. Eventually, even if the outdoor unit S is lifted with the handle 10, the work can be performed smoothly without any trouble.

  The vertical ribs 26 are not only provided on the inner surface of the engaging protrusion 22 but also extend to the lower surface of the flat surface portion 21a of the receiving protrusion 21. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the engaging protrusion 22 is merely used. Of course, even if it is only provided on the inner surface, the strength sufficient to support and disperse the weight of the outdoor unit S is maintained.

  As described above, since the handle 10 is assembled and the handle 10 is attached, the handle 10 can be easily attached to the housing 1 and there is no backlash. In addition, the outer peripheral surface of the top plate 5a, the outer surface of the side plate 3, and the outer surface of the receiving projection 21 of the handle 10 are all flush with each other, and the stepped portion 24 of the handle 10 is engaged with the notch 14 of the peripheral portion 5a. The appearance is excellent.

  Even when the outdoor unit S is exposed to rain during actual use, and rainwater enters from the joint between the peripheral edge 6a of the top plate 5 and the side plate 3, the plate portion 3b constituting the side plate 3 becomes a so-called standing wall, Almost prevents rainwater from entering the inner surface of the side plate 3.

  Even if rainwater tries to enter from the joining portion of the top plate peripheral edge portion 5a and the handle means difference portion 24, the handle flat surface portion 21a becomes a standing wall and almost prevents intrusion. Even if rainwater gets over the plane portion 21a, the spacer 25 is interposed between the inner surface of the plane portion 21a and the outer surface of the side plate 3, so that a gap is formed. I don't need to.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment as it is, and can be embodied by modifying the components without departing from the scope of the invention in the implementation stage. In addition, various inventions may be formed by appropriately combining the plurality of components.
