[0058] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0059] Hereinafter, an air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0060] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 17 As shown, an air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a panel 1, a switch door 2, an electrical component 3 for controlling and / or displaying the operating status of the air conditioner, and a wire 4.

[0061] Specifically, the panel 1 has an air outlet 11 for air flow out; the switch door 2 is movably arranged on the outside of the panel 1 to open or close the air outlet 11, such as Figure 1 As shown, the door 2 opens the air outlet 11, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the switch door 2 closes the air outlet 11. When the air conditioner 1000 is working, the switch door 2 moves relative to the panel 1 to open the air outlet 11, and air flows out from the air outlet 11. When the air conditioner 1000 is not working, the switch door 2 moves relative to the panel 1 to close the air outlet 11, reducing the possibility of dust entering the air conditioner 1000 through the air outlet 11. Figure 9 and Figure 11 As shown, a first clip 12 is provided on the side of the panel 1 facing away from the door 2. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the panel 1 is also provided with a wire groove 13 that penetrates the panel 1 in the thickness direction of the panel 1. The wire groove 13 extends along the moving direction of the door 2. The length of the wire groove 13 can be set according to actual needs. Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, the side of the switch door 2 facing the panel 1 is provided with a second clip 21, the electrical component 3 is provided on the side of the switch door 2 close to the panel 1 and is spaced apart from the second clip 21, one end of the wire 4 is connected to the electrical component 3, and the other end of the wire 4 is connected to the electric control box of the air conditioner 1000. Optionally, the electrical component 3 is a button, which is used to start the switch door 2. When the electrical component 3 is pressed, the signal is transmitted to the electric control box through the wire 4. The electric control box controls the switch door 2 to move to open or close the air outlet 11 according to the signal. Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the wire 4 is clamped in the first clamping clip 12 and the second clamping clip 21, thereby better securing the wire 4. The wire 4 located between the first clamping clip 12 and the second clamping clip 21 is passed through the wire groove 13. The wire 4 moves in the wire groove 13 as the door 2 moves to open or close the air outlet 11, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 being cut.

[0062] According to the air conditioner 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, a first wire clip 12 is provided on the side of the panel 1 away from the closing door 2, and a second wire clip 21 is provided on the side of the opening and closing door 2 facing the panel 1. The wire 4 located between the first wire clip 12 and the second wire clip 21 is passed through the wire groove 13, so that the wire 4 can be well fixed, reducing the possibility of the wire 4 coming out. At the same time, the wire 4 moves in the wire groove 13 as the opening and closing door 2 moves to open or close the air outlet 11, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 being damaged by cutting, pulling, etc.

[0063] like Figure 9 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the first wire clamp 12 has a first wire clamping groove 122, and first protrusions 124 are provided on the opposite side walls of the first wire clamping groove 122. The first protrusions 124 are spaced apart from the bottom wall of the first wire clamping groove 122, and the free ends of the two first protrusions 124 are spaced apart. The wire 4 is clamped between the two first protrusions 124 and the bottom wall of the first wire clamping groove 122, thereby better fixing the wire 4 and reducing the possibility of the wire 4 falling out.

[0064] like Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, optionally, the air conditioner 1000 further includes a first fixing sleeve 41. As Figure 9 , Figure 11 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 shown, the first fixing sleeve 41 is sleeved on the wire 4 and clamped between the bottom walls of the two first protrusions 124 and the first wire clamping groove 122. The wire 4 is fixed by the cooperation of the first fixing sleeve 41 and the first wire clamping groove 122. Since the diameter of the wire 4 is small, the wire 4 can be better fixed, reducing the possibility of the wire 4 coming out. At the same time, the possibility of the wire 4 rotating and wearing in the first wire clamping groove 122 is reduced. At the same time, by sleeving the first fixing sleeve 41 on the wire 4, the role of pre-positioning by the first fixing sleeve 41 is played, reserving a suitable length of the wire 4 between the first wire clamping buckle 12 and the second wire clamping buckle 21, so that the wire 4 can move in the wire groove 13 as the switch door 2 moves. Through the marking function of the first fixing sleeve 41, the installation efficiency of workers can be improved.

[0065] As Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, optionally, a first limiting groove 412 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the first fixing sleeve 41. The first limiting groove 412 extends in a circumferential direction of the first fixing sleeve 41 to form a ring shape. The two first protrusions 124 are clamped in the first limiting groove 412. Thereby, the first fixing sleeve 41 can be further fixed, reducing the possibility of the first fixing sleeve 41 rotating in the first wire clamping groove 122. At the same time, the two first protrusions 124 located in the first limiting groove 412 can play an axial limiting role, preventing the first fixing sleeve 41 from moving axially and coming out of the first limiting groove 412.

[0066] As Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, optionally, the outer contour of the first fixing sleeve 41 is formed into a square shape. Thereby, the possibility of the first fixing sleeve 41 rotating in the first wire clamping groove 122 can be further reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 twisting and prolonging the service life of the wire 4.

[0067] As Figure 15 and Figure 16 shown, optionally, the opposite side walls and the bottom wall of the first wire clamping groove 122 form a "匚"-shaped cross-sectional area. Such a setting makes the first wire clamping groove 122 cooperate with the first fixing sleeve 41, so that when the first fixing sleeve 41 is clamped into the first wire clamping groove 122, there is no need to specifically align and adjust the direction, improving the installation efficiency. At the same time, the possibility of the first fixing sleeve 41 rotating in the first wire clamping groove 122 can be better reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 twisting and being damaged.

[0068] Optionally, the first fixing sleeve 41 is a flexible member, such as a rubber member, so that the wire 4 can be better wrapped and the possibility of the first fixing sleeve 41 cutting the wire 4 is reduced.

[0069] like Figure 9 and Figure 11 As shown, optionally, a first guide slope 126 is provided on the first protrusion 124. In the direction toward the bottom wall of the first wire-gripping groove 122, the first guide slope 126 is inclined toward the side wall of the first wire-gripping groove 122 opposite the corresponding first protrusion 124, thereby making it easier for the first fixing sleeve 41 to be inserted into the first wire-gripping groove 122. The inclination angle of the first guide slope 126 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited in this application.

[0070] like Figure 3 and Figure 17 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a gear 15 and a motor are provided on the side of the panel 1 close to the switch door 2, and a rack 22 cooperating with the gear 15 is provided on the side of the switch door 2 close to the panel 1. The gear 15 and the rack 22 are engaged with each other, and the motor drives the gear 15 to drive the rack 22 and then drive the switch door 2 to move relative to the panel 1. One end of the rack 22 is close to the bottom end of the switch door 2, and the other end of the rack 22 is close to the center line of the switch door 2 perpendicular to the moving direction. The engagement range of the rack 22 and the gear 15 is the moving stroke of the switch door 2.

[0071] like Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the second wire clip 21 is arranged on the switch door 2 close to or on the center line of the switch door 2 perpendicular to the moving direction, which can reduce the possibility of the wire 4 being pulled due to the movement of the switch door 2.

[0072] like Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the second wire clamp 21 has a second wire clamping groove 212, and second protrusions 214 are provided on the opposite side walls of the second wire clamping groove 212. The second protrusions 214 are spaced apart from the bottom wall of the second wire clamping groove 212, and the free ends of the two second protrusions 214 are spaced apart. The wire 4 is clamped between the two second protrusions 214 and the bottom wall of the second wire clamping groove 212, thereby better fixing the wire 4 and reducing the possibility of the wire 4 falling out.

[0073] like Figure 17 and Figure 18As shown, optionally, the air conditioner 1000 further includes: a second fixing sleeve 42. The second fixing sleeve 42 is sleeved on the wire 4 and clamped between the bottoms of two second protrusions 214 and second wire clamping grooves 212. By the cooperation of the second fixing sleeve 42 and the second wire clamping grooves 212, the wire 4 is fixed. Since the diameter of the wire 4 is small, the wire 4 can be better fixed, reducing the possibility of the wire 4 coming out. At the same time, the possibility of the wire 4 rotating and wearing in the second wire clamping grooves 212 is reduced. At the same time, by sleeving the second fixing sleeve 42 on the wire 4, the function of pre-positioning with the second fixing sleeve 42 is achieved, reserving a suitable length of the wire 4 between the first wire clamping buckle 12 and the second wire clamping buckle 21, enabling the wire 4 to move in the wire groove 13 as the switch door 2 moves. Through the pre-positioning function of the second fixing sleeve 42, the installation efficiency of workers can be improved.

[0074] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, optionally, a second limiting groove 422 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the second fixing sleeve 42. The second limiting groove 422 extends circumferentially along the second fixing sleeve 42 to form a ring shape. The two second protrusions 214 are clamped in the second limiting groove 422. Thus, the second fixing sleeve 42 can be further fixed, reducing the possibility of the second fixing sleeve 42 rotating in the second wire clamping grooves 212. At the same time, the two second protrusions 214 located in the second limiting groove 422 can play an axial limiting role, preventing the second fixing sleeve 42 from moving axially and coming out of the second limiting groove 422.

[0075] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, optionally, the outer contour of the second fixing sleeve 42 is square. Thus, the possibility of the second fixing sleeve 42 rotating in the second wire clamping grooves 212 can be further reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 twisting and extending the service life of the wire 4.

[0076] As Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, optionally, the opposite side walls and the bottom wall of the second wire clamping grooves 2l2 form a "C" - shaped cross - section. Such a setting makes the second wire clamping grooves 212 cooperate with the second fixing sleeve 42, so that when the second fixing sleeve 42 is clamped into the second wire clamping grooves 212, there is no need to specifically align and adjust the direction, improving the installation efficiency. At the same time, it can better reduce the possibility of the second fixing sleeve 42 rotating in the second wire clamping grooves 212, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 twisting and being damaged.

[0077] Optionally, the second fixing sleeve 42 is a flexible part, such as a rubber part, etc. Thus, it can better wrap the wire 4, reducing the possibility of the second fixing sleeve 42 cutting the wire 4.

[0078] As Figure 17 and Figure 18As shown, optionally, a second guide slope 216 is provided on the second protrusion 214. In the direction toward the bottom wall of the second wire-gripping groove 212, the second guide slope 216 is inclined toward the side wall of the second wire-gripping groove 212 opposite the corresponding second protrusion 214, thereby making it easier for the second fixing sleeve 42 to be inserted into the second wire-gripping groove 212. The inclination angle of the second guide slope 216 can be set according to actual needs and is not limited in this application.

[0079] like Figure 19 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioner 1000 further includes a wire pressing plate 5, which is arranged on the side of the panel 1 away from the switch door 2 and is connected to the panel 1. The wire pressing plate 5 and the panel 1 define a moving area of ​​the wire 4. The wire pressing plate 5 covers the first wire clamp 12 and the wire groove 13. The wire 4 located between the first wire clamp 12 and the wire groove 13 is movable within the moving area, thereby better fixing the wire 4 and better protecting the wire 4, reducing possible damage to the wire 4 such as hooking by other components.

[0080] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, optionally, the first wire buckle 12 and the wire groove 13 are spaced apart in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the door 2, thereby reducing the possibility of the wire 4 being loose and accumulated when the door 2 moves.

[0081] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, optionally, the first wire buckle 12 is close to or on the symmetrical center line of the extension direction of the wire groove 13. Such an arrangement can make the distance between the first wire buckle 12 and the line connecting the two ends of the extension direction of the wire groove 13 approximately the same, and the distance between the first wire buckle 12 and any point in the wire groove 13 except the two ends is less than the distance between the first wire buckle 12 and the line connecting the two ends of the extension direction of the wire groove 13. Since the length of the wire 4 between the first wire buckle 12 and the wire groove 13 needs to be close to the maximum length between the first wire buckle 12 and the wire groove 13, the wire 4 can move freely in the wire groove 13 and will not be unable to move due to insufficient length. As a result, when the wire 4 moves in the wire groove 13, when the wire 4 moves to any end of the two ends in the extension direction of the wire groove 13, it will not be too loose, and the tension is appropriate, which reduces the possibility of accumulation of the wire 4.

[0082] like Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, optionally, the wire pressing plate 5 has a wire outlet avoidance opening 51, and the wire 4 extends from the wire outlet avoidance opening 51 to be connected to the electric control box, thereby achieving the connection between the wire 4 and the electric control box through the wire pressing plate 5.

[0083] Optionally, the wire pressing plate 5 is connected to the panel 1 by fasteners and / or snap-fit ​​connection, that is, in some embodiments, the wire pressing plate 5 is connected to the panel 1 by fasteners, thereby connecting the wire pressing plate 5 to the panel 1; in some embodiments, the wire pressing plate 5 is snap-fit ​​connection to the panel 1, thereby connecting the wire pressing plate 5 to the panel 1; in other embodiments, the wire pressing plate 5 is snap-fit ​​connection to the panel 1 and the connection is reinforced by fasteners, thereby connecting the wire pressing plate 5 to the panel 1.

[0084] like Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a wire groove 23 is further provided on the side of the switch door 2 near the panel 1. The wire groove 23 is located between the electrical component 3 and the second wire clamp 21. At least the portion of the wire 4 located between the electrical component 3 and the second wire clamp 21 is located in the wire groove 23, thereby securing the wire 4. Optionally, in some embodiments, the second wire clamp 21 is opposite to the wire groove 13, and the wire groove 23 is opposite to the wire groove 13. The second wire clamp 21 and the wire groove 23 are spaced on the same or nearly the same straight line. This allows the wire 4 to move more smoothly in the wire groove 13 and reduces jamming.

[0085] like Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioner 1000 further includes a slider 6, which is sleeved on the wire 4 and slidably disposed in the wire groove 13. Such a configuration can reduce the possibility of direct friction between the wire 4 and the wire groove 13, reduce the possibility of damage to the wire 4 due to frequent friction, and at the same time make the movement of the wire 4 in the guide groove smoother, reducing jamming.

[0086] like Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, optionally, a third wire clamp 61 for clamping the wire 4 is provided on the side of the slider 6 away from the switch door 2, thereby further fixing the wire 4 and reducing the possibility of the wire 4 falling off the slider 6.

[0087] like Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, optionally, a sliding groove 62 is provided on the peripheral wall of the slider 6, and the sliding groove 62 extends along the circumferential direction of the slider 6. The panel 1 is clamped in the sliding groove 62, thereby realizing that the slider 6 is movably clamped in the wire groove 13.

[0088] like Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, optionally, an assembly groove 14 is provided at one end of the wire groove 13 in the longitudinal direction, and the assembly groove 14 is connected to the wire groove 13. The cross-sectional area of ​​the assembly groove 14 is adapted to the cross-sectional area of ​​at least one of the two ends of the slider 6 located on both sides of the sliding groove 62 so that one end of the slider 6 passes through the assembly groove 14 and is inserted into the wire groove 13. This arrangement enables the slider 6 to be inserted into the wire groove 13, while reducing the possibility of the slider 6 falling out of the wire groove 13. In addition, the slider 6 can also be easily removed from the wire groove 13.

[0089] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, optionally, a plurality of balls 43 are sleeved on the portion of the wire 4 located between the first wire clamp 12 and the second wire clamp 21, and the balls 43 are rotatable relative to the wire 4, thereby allowing the wire 4 to move in the wire groove 13 as the door 2 moves. The portion of the wire 4 between the first wire clamp 12 and the wire groove 13 slides relative to the panel 1. By providing the balls 43, the friction between the wire 4 and the panel 1 can be reduced, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the wire 4.
