STRUCTURE FOR FIXING A CONDENSER TO AN END PLATE}

The present invention relates to a fixed structure of a parallel flow condenser, and more particularly, by extending a part of the condenser bracket and fixing it to an end plate, to reduce noise generated when the air conditioner is operated, thereby improving the quietness of the parallel flow condenser. It relates to a fixed structure.

There are a number of capacitors used as outdoor units of package air conditioners, but some of the capacitors are configured by bending the condenser to reduce the installation space. Recently, as a plan for improving cooling capacity and sharing parts, an outdoor unit of a package air conditioner (Parallel Flow Condenser), sometimes referred to as a super compact condenser, is used as an outdoor unit of a packaged air conditioner. It can also be adopted.

1 is an exploded perspective view of an outdoor unit of an air conditioner showing a mounting structure of a general parallel flow capacitor. The overall configuration of the outdoor unit for a package air conditioner in which the PF condenser 30 is installed includes a base panel 10 installed on a rooftop or a floor of a building, and a compressor 20 disposed on the base panel 10 to compress a refrigerant. ), A motor fixing bracket 40 having a fan motor 50 for rotating the cooling fan 54, a mounting hole 42 to which the fan motor 50 is fixed, and a refrigerant compressed by the compressor 20. It consists of a PF condenser 30 which cools by the rotation of the cooling fan 54, and the front cover 60 and the rear cover 70 arrange | positioned at the front and the rear, respectively.

A fixing hole 44 coupled to the fixing hole 14 of the base panel 10 is formed at the lower end of the motor fixing bracket 40 by a fastening means, and the upper part of the PF capacitor 30 is inserted and fixed at the upper end thereof. The clamping part 48 is formed. The clamping portion 48 has a width slightly larger than that of the PF capacitor 30 and projects side by side downward. The central hole 56 of the cooling fan 54 is fixed on the drive shaft 52 of the fan motor 50 fixed to the mounting hole 42 of the motor fixing bracket 40.

An inlet hole 62 is formed in the front cover 60 constituting the front of the outdoor unit to allow external air to flow when the cooling fan 54 is rotated, and the plurality of heat dissipation grooves 72 are formed in the rear cover 70. Is formed so that the heated air is discharged to the outside through heat exchange.

Both sides of the PF capacitor 30 are attached with headers 32 and 34 through which refrigerant flows in and out, and a condenser fixing bracket 36 for fixing the PF capacitor 30 to the base panel 10 is attached to the bottom thereof. do. An insertion end 36a is formed in the condenser fixing bracket 36 so as to be fitted into the rib 12 formed in the base panel 10 during assembly.

2 is a partially enlarged front sectional view for showing a conventional capacitor fixing structure. As shown, a capacitor bracket 30a is attached to the upper end of the RF capacitor 30 so as to be fixed to the rear cover, and an end plate 80 is disposed at a position adjacent to the header 32.

In the structure of the conventional parallel flow condenser having such a configuration, vibration generated by the compressor and the cooling fan during the operation of the air conditioner is transmitted to the RF condenser, which causes vibration, thereby causing damage to the pipe.

The present invention devised to solve the above problems prevents the RF capacitor from shaking while the air conditioner is operating to prevent damage to the pipe, thereby providing a fixed structure of the parallel flow condenser which can extend the air conditioner life and reduce the maintenance cost. Its purpose is to.

An object of the present invention described above is a base panel on which a compressor and a parallel flow condenser are installed, a motor fixing bracket on which a fan motor and a cooling fan are mounted, and a front cover and a rear cover respectively disposed at the front and rear of the parallel flow condenser. In the outdoor unit of the air conditioner comprising a condenser bracket having an extension extending vertically on the upper end of the parallel flow condenser, and a fastening end which is bent at an approximately, right angle from the extension and fixed to the bent end of the end plate. This is achieved by a fixed structure of a parallel flow condenser characterized in that it is attached.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying Figure 3 will be described in detail with respect to the fixed structure of the parallel flow capacitor according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the same components as the conventional structure described in Figure 1 will be described with the same reference numerals.

First, as described with reference to FIG. 1, a compressor and an RF capacitor are installed on the base panel constituting the outdoor unit bottom of the package air conditioner, and a fan motor is installed for cooling the refrigerant passing through the RF capacitor. In the outdoor unit having such a configuration, in order to prevent the shaking of the RF capacitor 30, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the structure of the condenser bracket 90 is appropriately changed.

To this end, the condenser bracket 90 attached to the upper end of the RF condenser 30 is extended upward, and then the end portion is bent by 90 ° again to adopt a structure that is bent in parallel. That is, the condenser bracket 90 includes an extension 90a extending vertically upward from an upper end of the RF condenser 30 and an end plate 80 at the time of assembling in an approximately and perpendicularly bent state from the extension 90a. The fastening end 90b which is fixed to the bending end 80a of () is provided.

The lower end of the extension part of the condenser bracket 90 is in close contact with the upper end of the header of the RF condenser 30, and the height thereof is such that the end of the upper fastening end 90b is in close contact with the upper bent end 80a of the end plate 80. It is preferable that the length is appropriate. The fastening end 90b and the bending end 80a may be fixed with a usual fastening screw and bolt.

According to the present invention described above, by fixing the fastening end of the condenser bracket attached to the upper end of the RF capacitor to the bent end of the end plate, it is possible to prevent the RF capacitor from shaking during the air conditioner operation, thereby preventing damage to the pipe. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the deterioration of the cooling performance, extend the life of the air conditioner, and there is an advantage of reducing the maintenance cost.
