DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fixing bracket for an air conditioner, and more particularly to a fixing bracket for an air conditioner for fixing an air conditioner to a base.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There are various types of fixing fittings for conventional air conditioners, but all of them are intended only to fix the air conditioner as a base, and a unit box constituting the air conditioner is used. No consideration was given to hanging the unit or connecting the unit boxes.

[0003]

The conventional fixing bracket has only the function of fixing the air conditioner to the base, so that the unit boxes constituting the air conditioner are suspended or the unit boxes are connected to each other. In this case, it is necessary to provide a metal fitting for hanging the unit boxes and a metal fitting for connecting the unit boxes separately from the fixing metal. Therefore, in such a case, the number of parts is increased, and the number of steps for attaching these parts is also increased, so that there is a problem that the cost is increased as a whole.

[0004] Therefore, a main object of the present invention is to provide a fixture for an air conditioner that can reduce the number of parts and cost.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a plurality of unit boxes formed in a box shape having a bottom surface and three side surfaces and constituting an air conditioner are fixed to a base. A fixing bracket for an air conditioner, the base fixing portion having a hole that forms a bottom surface and through which an anchor bolt provided on a base is inserted, and a mounting bolt that forms one of the side surfaces and is attached to a unit box. Box fixing portion having a hole to be formed, a box connecting portion having a hole forming one of the side surfaces and through which a bolt for connecting adjacent unit boxes is inserted, and a unit box forming one of the side surfaces A suspension having a hole in which the means for suspending
Fixing bracket for air conditioner.

[0006]

The fixing bracket is attached to the unit box by fixing the box fixing section to the side surface of the unit box with a bolt inserted into the hole of the box fixing section. In this state, in order to install the unit box on the foundation, a hanging means such as a rope is locked in a hole of the hanging portion, and the unit box is hung and carried into the site. Subsequently, when it is necessary to connect adjacent unit boxes, two adjacent unit boxes are connected by inserting connection bolts into holes formed in the box connecting portions. Then, an anchor bolt provided on the foundation is inserted into a hole of the foundation fixing portion, and a nut is screwed onto the anchor bolt to fix the foundation fixing portion on the foundation.

[0007]

According to the present invention, it is not necessary to prepare another metal fitting for suspending the unit boxes or connecting the unit boxes, so that the number of parts can be reduced and the cost can be reduced. In addition, the base fixing part, the box fixing part, the box connecting part and the hanging part
Since it is formed in a box shape on the surface, it is possible to secure sufficient strength structurally, and it is not necessary to use a thick material as a material,
The weight can be reduced.

The above objects, other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of embodiments with reference to the drawings.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An air conditioner fixing bracket 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 is for fixing an air conditioner 12 as shown in FIGS. Here, the air conditioner 12 includes the filter unit box 1
6, constituted by connecting the coil unit box 18 and the fan unit box 20 to each other;
Together, they exhibit the functions of dust removal, heat exchange, and air blowing.

[0010] The filter unit box 16 is
2 (FIG. 3) and a box-shaped casing 24 assembled on the gantry 22. An air inlet 26 is formed on the upper surface of the casing 24, and an opening 28 communicating with the coil unit box 18 is formed on the side surface. You. Then, inside the casing 24, an air filter 30
Is provided. The coil unit box 18 is mounted on the gantry 3
2 and a box-shaped casing 34 assembled on the gantry 32. Openings 36 and 38 communicating with the filter unit box 16 and the fan unit box 20, respectively, are formed on two opposite sides of the casing 34. A heat exchange coil 40 is provided inside the casing 34. Fan unit box 20
Includes a gantry 42 and a box-shaped casing 44 assembled on the gantry 42. An air outlet 46 is formed on the upper surface of the casing 44, and an opening 48 communicating with the coil unit box 18 is formed on a side surface. A fan 50 and a motor 52 for driving the fan 50 are provided inside the casing 44.

The fixing bracket 10 (FIG. 1) is formed of a metal plate such as an iron plate into a substantially box-like shape having one bottom surface and three side surfaces. Box fixing part 56 constituting one,
A box connection part 58 and a hanging part 60 are included. And
Holes 64 for inserting anchor bolts 62 (FIGS. 6 and 7) provided on the upper surface of the foundation 14 are formed in the base fixing portion 54, and mounting bolts 66 (FIGS. 6 and 7) are formed in the box fixing portion 56. ) Are formed, and four holes 68 for inserting the
A hole 72 for inserting a bolt 70 (FIG. 6) for connecting the unit boxes to each other is formed in the box connecting portion 58, and a hole 74 for locking a hanging means such as a rope or the like in the hanging portion 60. Is formed.

In order to attach such a fixing member 10 to the unit boxes 16, 18 and 20, as shown in FIG. 4, the box fixing portion 56 is bolted through a hole 68 (FIG. 1) of the box fixing portion 56. Are fixed to the lower side corners of the unit boxes 16, 18, and 20.
When installing the unit boxes 16, 18, and 20 on the foundation 14, as shown in FIG. 5, a rope 76 as a suspending means is locked in a hole 74 (FIG. 16, 18, and 20 are suspended and these are sequentially carried into the site. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, a hole 72 formed in the box connecting portion 58 (FIG. 1).
And a nut 80 is screwed into the bolt 70 to connect two adjacent unit boxes.
Then, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the anchor bolt 62 provided on the foundation 14 is
(FIG. 1), and the nut 7
8 is screwed to fix the base fixing portion 54 on the base 14.

According to this embodiment, one fixing fitting 10
Thus, the unit box can be fixed to the foundation 14, the unit box can be suspended, and the unit boxes can be connected to each other. Therefore, there is no need to prepare another metal fitting for hanging the unit boxes or connecting the unit boxes, and the cost can be reduced. Further, the base fixing part 54, the box fixing part 56, the box connecting part 58
