Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a reinforcing device for a package for an air conditioner such as a window-hung type air conditioner.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a conventional packaging device for an air conditioner of this type includes a pair of guide rails c and d provided at both bottom ends b and at the bottom of both sides of a housing a of the air conditioner, respectively. The air conditioner body board f is placed on one of the guide rails c, and the packaging bottom plate h and the board f are fastened together with bolts i and nuts g at a location away from this guide rail c. Ta.

Therefore, with such a conventional structure,
The board f and the bottom plate h for packaging are integrated with bolts i, etc., but since the casing a and the board f are only fixed separately with screws, etc., the casing may be damaged due to shocks caused by drops etc. during transportation. The engagement between the body a and the board f may be disengaged, and the case a may be biased against the board f, causing the case a to come into contact with piping or other parts that make up the air conditioner main body, causing the case a to It had the disadvantage of causing deformation when hammered. Also, due to the positional relationship between the housing a and the board f being shifted, the front grill e
had come off, causing the front grill e to split. In addition, the bolt i is connected to the board f without passing through the housing a.
Because they are directly fastened to the board, bolts i and cap nuts g are concentrated at the center of the board, and forces such as impact are concentrated at the center of the board f, damaging the air conditioner's components themselves, their relative positions, and the air. Harmonizer main body board f
There was a problem that distortion occurred.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to strengthen the reinforcement of the packaging body of an air conditioner so that it can sufficiently withstand shock during transportation.

In order to achieve the above object, the air conditioner package according to the present invention covers a board on which at least a blower and a heat exchanger are mounted, with a casing, and attaches opposite ends of the board to the lower end of the casing. an air conditioner is configured by forming an overlapping part that overlaps with the board, integrally forming a protruding support rail supporting the board in the overlapping part, providing a hole in the support rail, and further connecting the board and the casing. and a packaging bottom plate are fixed with bolts passing through holes provided in the support rail, and the air conditioner is housed together with the packaging bottom plate in a case made of corrugated paper or the like.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 of the accompanying drawings showing one embodiment thereof.

In the figure, 1 is a casing that forms the air conditioner, 2 is a front grill, and 3 is a board that forms the main body of the air conditioner together with the casing 1, including a compressor and a heat exchanger (none of which are shown). is placed. Overlapping portions 4 are formed at opposing lower portions of the casing 1,
Protruding guide support rails 5 and 6 are provided below the overlapping portion 4 and both left and right sides of the housing 1, respectively. A hole 7 is provided in the center of one of the guide rails 5 so as to pass through the guide rail portion in the vertical direction. Further, the board 3 forming the main body of the air conditioner has a rising portion 3a on its periphery, is supported on a guide rail 5 provided at the overlapping portion 4 of the casing 1, and is further provided at the bottom of both sides of the casing 1. The rising portion 3a is sandwiched between the other guide rails 6 provided in the housing 1 so as to be in contact with each other, and is completely inserted into a type of box formed by the housing 1. The housing 1 and the board 3 are removably fixed to each other with screws or the like. It is attached to the substrate 3 by spot welding or the like so as to be coaxial with the cap nuts 8 and the holes 7 on the left and right guide rails 5. Reference numeral 9 denotes a packaging bottom plate made of wood or the like used when packaging the air conditioner, on which the housing 1 and the air conditioner main body board 3 completely inserted into the housing 1 are placed, and the bag nuts are placed on the base plate 9. Several bolts 10 screwed into the bottom plate 8 pass through the holes 7 in the bottom plate 9 and the housing 1 from below the bottom plate 9 via washers 11. Therefore, the housing 1, the substrate 3, and the packaging bottom plate 9 are fastened together by the bolts 10 and cap nuts 8, respectively.

With the above structure, the packaging device for an air conditioner is completed, and as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the housing 1, the board 3, and the packaging bottom plate 9 are held together in a case 12 made of corrugated paper or the like. will be stored in.

As described above, in this embodiment, a hole 7 is provided in the overlapping part 4 formed on the bottom surface of the casing 1, and the bolt 10 is passed through the hole 7 to integrate the board 3, the casing 1, and the packaging bottom plate 9. Therefore, the positional relationship of the casing 1, the board 3, and the bottom plate 9 will not shift due to shocks caused by drops during transportation, and will not be affected by shocks caused by contact with the air conditioner main body components due to the misalignment of the casing 1. Deformation, disassembly, and damage to the front grill 2 can be prevented. In addition, since the positions where bolts are tightened to fix the housing 1, the board 3, and the bottom plate 9 are formed on the outer circumferential side of the board 3, the positional relationship where the bolts are tightened is widened.
The force due to impact etc. is not concentrated in the center part of the board 3,
It is distributed over the entire board 3 and the casing 1, and distortion of the air conditioner main body components themselves, their respective positional relationships, and the board 3 itself can be prevented.

In addition, a pair of guide rails 5 are provided at the overlapping portion 4 of the housing 1.
Since the bolts 10 pass through the guide rail 5 portion, the strength is greater than in the conventional case where the bolts are simply tightened to a flat plate portion. In other words, the guide rail 5 is a very strong part of the casing 1, and is in contact with both the bottom plate 9 and the board 3. However, if the hole 7 is provided in the flat plate, the flat plate becomes different from the bottom plate 9. Although they are in contact with each other, they are separated from the substrate 3 by the height of the guide rail 5, and when an impact is applied, distortion and deformation occur in the hole 7 and its surrounding area. However, when the hole 7 is provided in the guide rail 5 portion, the board 3, the housing 1, and the packaging bottom plate 9 are more firmly integrated, and the strength of the hole portion is very high, and no distortion or deformation occurs.

As is clear from the above embodiments, the air conditioner package according to the present invention covers a board on which at least a blower and a heat exchanger are mounted, with a casing, and a lower end of the casing is provided with a The board, the housing, and the bottom plate for packaging are fastened together with screws at the overlapping part, and the support rail is housed in the case in this state, and the support rail through which the bolt penetrates is formed. Since the part is protruding, it has high strength, allowing the housing, board, and bottom plate for packaging to be integrated even more firmly, and the positional relationship between the board, the case, and the bottom plate for packaging will shift due to shocks such as drops during transportation. Without this, distortion and deformation of the casing due to this positional deviation, as well as damage to the entire air conditioner, can be prevented, and the reliability of the package can be improved.
Also, since the bolt passes through the support rail,
The penetrating portion will not be deformed by a large drop impact, and any adverse effects on the air conditioner caused by this can be prevented, and the reliability of the package will be further improved.
