    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

    (13) The present disclosure is further described below in detail with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings.

    Embodiment 1

    (14) Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, a spiral finned condenser comprises: a condensing pipe 1 and a fin 2. The fin 2 is spirally wound on a surface of the condensing pipe 1. An inner side of the fin 2 is connected to the condensing pipe 1 and is in a wavy structure 21, and an outer side of the fin is in a smooth structure 22. One reason for wavy structure connection is firm connection, avoiding sliding, dispersing the force when assembling and protecting structure from damaging; another reason is guiding the heat and airflow to accelerate dissipation. The smooth structure at the outer side of the fin ensures that the heat dissipation direction of the fins during dissipation is uniform linear heat dissipation. If the outer side of the fin is still in the wavy structure, the dissipation will be in nonlinear, and the heat radiation will have crossover and overlap. When the heat radiation waves overlap, they will affect each other, causing a certain resistance, which affects the cooling effect.

    (15) Condensing pipes form a cubic structure by means of a plurality of turns and bends, which reduces greatly the volume of the condenser and the space occupied, at the same time ensures the cooling effect, thereby have abroad application.

    (16) The spiral finned condenser further comprises a fixing bracket 3, which is fit the fins 2, and is clamped and fixed on the condensing pipe 1. The fixing bracket 3 includes a mounting plate 31 and a clamping, mechanism 32 provided to a side wall of the mounting plate 31 vertically. The number of the clamping mechanism can be one (FIG. 6) or two (FIG. 5). When there is one clamping mechanism, it may be arranged on any side of the mounting plate. When there are two clamping mechanisms, they should be even distributed on the two sides of the mounting plate. The adjusting of the clamping mechanism depends on the structure and size of the condenser. Usually, the mounting plate and the clamping mechanism are integrally formed and later formation is finished by means of machining or manual processing for convenience.

    (17) The clamping mechanism 32 consists of a plurality of clamping units 321 uniformly distributed on the mounting plate 31 with regular intervals 322 between neighboring units, and the width of intervals is equal to that between condensing pipes. Each clamping unit 321 consists of two clamping sheets 323, and a clamping slot 324 fit to the condensing pipe is defined between the two clamping sheets. Align the clamping slot with the condensing pipe and insert it into a bottom when the fixing bracket is mounted on the condensing pipe. Generally, the length of the clamping sheet is relatively longer, which is at least twice as long as the outer diameter of the condensing pipe. When the condensing pipe is stuck in the clamping slot, the mold is used to press the clamping sheet laterally. Namely, the distance between the ends of the two clamping sheets is contracted to fix the condensing pipe firmly.

    Embodiment 2

    (18) Referring to FIG. 7, the clamping sheet is in a rigid structure, and for preventing the clamping sheet from breaking and for contracting the clamping sheet smoothly, three adjusting groove 325 are provided at a bottom of the clamping slot 324, and the adjusting grooves extend to the mounting plate.

    Embodiment 3

    (19) Referring to FIG. 8 to FIG. 11, the fixing bracket 3 comprises the mounting plate 31 and a plurality of clamping sheets 323 alternately arranged on the two sides of the mounting plate 31. A T-shaped structure is formed after the two sides of the mounting plate are bended twice. Generally speaking, an angle of a first bending at a position A is 180 and an angle of a second bending at a position B is 90, and the sequence of bending can be reversed. A clamping slot 324 fit to the condensing pipe is formed between the two clamping sheets 323. The end of the mounting plate becomes a limiting part, keeping the condensing pipe being in clamping slot. A plane in which the clamping sheet locates is under a plane in which the mounting plate locates, so as to ensure all the clamping sheets are on the same plane and clamp the condensing pipe availably. Meanwhile the mounting plate can cover more fins and prevent the fins from being deformed when the fixing bracket or the condenser is installed.

    (20) Referring to FIG. 12, an inner inclined surface 3231 is defined at an inner side of an end portion of the clamping sheet 323 to form a bigger end caliber of the clamping slot, so it is easier for the condensing pipe to align and be, inserted into the clamping slot, and prevent the condensing pipe from bending before inserted into the slot. An outer inclined surface 3232 is defined on an outer side of the end portion to remove the sharp edges and corners of the clamping sheet. Since corresponding mold is used for contracting the clamping sheets, the corners will hurt the operator or damage the mold. The outer inclined surface can ensure the long-term use of the mold and the safety of the operator with a lower cost. A flat or a curved surface 3233 bulging outward is arranged between the two inclined surfaces to prevent formation of sharp edges and corners. A gradient of the outer inclined surface is higher than that of the inner inclined surface. Generally, the angle between the outer inclined surface and the horizontal line is 60, and the angle between the inner inclined surface and the horizontal line is 45.

    (21) It is obvious that a plurality of fixing holes (not shown) can be defined on the fixing bracket to ensure the fixed connection between the fixing bracket and the condenser by means of screwing a nut bolt therein. It is simple in structure and convenient for disassembly.

    (22) The fixing bracket adopted by the disclosure has the following advantages:

    (23) 1. The fixing bracket is connected to the condensing pipe directly, which can be used as a medium for absorbing or radiating heat and further increases the heat exchange area, that is, the fixing bracket directly performs heat exchange, and the heat exchange effect is higher than the previous method.

    (24) 2. It is simple in structure, and convenient for production, lower in production cost, less in installation time, higher in the work efficiency.

    (25) 3. It reduces the resonance frequency of the condenser, thereby reducing the vibration of the condenser and preventing loose in the connection with the refrigerator due to vibration, and avoiding unnecessary loss.
