[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present disclosure and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0033] When the wall-mounted indoor unit of a conventional air conditioner is installed, it needs to be installed at an angle, which requires the tongue position of the wall-mounted plate to be correct. Otherwise, when the bottom shell of the indoor unit is tilted, the remaining length at the top will press against the wall, and the tongue cannot be inserted into the bottom shell. For wall-mounted indoor units that integrate multiple functions, such as wall-mounted indoor units with upper and lower air outlet functions, the vertical dimensions are large and the weight is very large. If the indoor unit is only hung and weighed at the upper end, the hanging structure cannot meet the installation requirements.

[0034] Combination Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a wall-mounted device for mounting a wall-mounted indoor unit 2, comprising: a wall-mounted plate 1, which is installed on a wall 3; a first mounting structure is provided on the indoor unit 2, and the wall-mounted plate 1 is provided with a second mounting structure, and the first mounting structure and the second mounting structure can cooperate in a vertical direction. After the first mounting structure and the second mounting structure cooperate, the indoor unit 2 is mounted on the wall 3.

[0035] The wall-mounted device of this embodiment is aimed at the wall-mounted indoor unit 2 with multiple functions, large weight and large vertical size. The indoor unit 2 is installed in a vertical direction, does not need to be hung at an angle, and has better wall adhesion. The indoor unit 2 is not easy to fall out of the wall-mounted plate 1 when installed in the vertical direction, and the hanging performance is reliable. At the same time, the jack 4, slot and other structures that can be used for vertical installation are simple, the volume is controllable, and space can be saved for the thickness direction of the indoor unit 2.

[0036] In some embodiments, the bottom shell 7 is used as the load-bearing structure of the indoor unit 2. Due to material factors, it cannot provide a high weighing strength for the indoor unit 2. Therefore, a reinforcing plate 6 is installed on the bottom shell 7 of the indoor unit 2. The reinforcing plate 6 is preferably made of metal material, and the first hanging structure is arranged on the reinforcing plate 6. The reinforcing plate 6 is configured to increase the strength of the plastic bottom shell 7 of the indoor unit 2, and can also correct the shape of the bottom shell 7 and improve the flatness of the back of the bottom shell 7.

[0037] In some embodiments, in a mating structure capable of realizing a vertical direction, the structure of the socket 4 and the tongue 5 has the advantages of being simple and reliable. Therefore, the first mounting structure includes at least one socket 4, and the second mounting structure includes a corresponding number of tongues 5; or, the first mounting structure includes at least one tongue 5, and the second mounting structure includes a corresponding number of sockets 4.

[0038] Preferably, the first hanging structure includes at least two sockets 4, the second hanging structure includes at least two plug tongues 5, the at least two sockets 4 are evenly arranged along the horizontal direction of the indoor unit 2, and the positions of the at least two plug tongues 5 correspond to the positions of the sockets 4.

[0039] The number of the tongues 5 and the sockets 4 can be determined as needed based on the weight of the indoor unit 2, the thickness of the wall panel 1, the material yield strength, the tensile strength and other actual conditions, all within the protection scope of this patent.

[0040] In some embodiments, in order to further improve the matching strength between the reinforcing plate 6 and the wall-mounted plate 1 and improve the load-bearing capacity of both, a sinking platform 8 is further provided on the reinforcing plate 6, and a sinking folding edge 9 is provided at a corresponding position on the wall-mounted plate 1. The sinking platform 8 and the sinking folding edge 9 can cooperate in the vertical direction to assist the first hanging structure and the second hanging structure in supporting the entire weight of the indoor unit 2.

[0041] Preferably, the support platform, hereinafter referred to as the support platform, is in the same horizontal position as the insertion hole 4 on the reinforcing plate 6 and is arranged on both sides of the insertion hole 4 in the horizontal direction, which can also play a role in improving the strength of the reinforcing plate 6.

[0042] In some embodiments, a third hanging structure is further provided on the bottom shell 7, and a fourth hanging structure is further provided on the wall-mounted plate 1, and the third hanging structure and the fourth hanging structure can cooperate with each other in the vertical direction.

[0043] In some embodiments, a hollow portion 17 is provided on the reinforcing plate 6 to avoid the third hanging structure or the fourth hanging structure, the third hanging structure includes at least one air-avoiding groove 11, and the second hanging structure includes a corresponding number of buckles 10; or, the third hanging structure includes at least one buckle 10, and the fourth hanging structure includes a corresponding number of air-avoiding grooves 11. The cooperation between the buckle 10 and the air-avoiding groove 11 provides a limit for the lower part of the bottom shell 7 perpendicular to the wall 3, that is, the thickness direction of the indoor unit 2, to prevent the lower end of the indoor unit 2 from tilting.

[0044] In some embodiments, when the indoor unit 2 is mounted on the wall 3, or is in a mounted position in the space, the reinforcing plate 6 and the wall-mounted plate 1 are arranged at the middle and upper position of the indoor unit 2 in the vertical direction, the reinforcing plate 6 is fixed to the bottom shell 7 of the indoor unit 2 by bolts, and the wall-mounted plate 1 is fixed to the wall 3 by expansion bolts. If the reinforcing plate 6 and the wall-mounted plate 1 are positioned too low, there will be a force arm between the center of gravity of the indoor unit 2 and the contact point between the tongue 5 and the bottom shell 7, causing the indoor unit 2 to rotate around the contact point away from the wall 3, while also ensuring that the bottom shell 7 bearing the weight on the upper part of the tongue 5 is not insufficient in strength due to too small a remaining height.

[0045] In some embodiments, the socket 4 as the first hanging structure is a plurality of hollow structures arranged in the middle and upper part of the reinforcing plate 6. The edges of the hollow structures are overlapped and ribbed nearby, which plays a major role in bearing the weight. At the same time, in order to avoid the local pulling force being too strong here and causing the two sides of the socket 4 to tear, the reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7 are fixed by screws on the left and right sides of the socket 4. Similarly, in order to avoid the tearing of the two sides of the tongue 5 of the wall-mounted plate 1, the wall-mounted plate 1 and the wall are reinforced by expansion bolts on both sides of the tongue 5.

[0046] In some embodiments, the edge of the reinforcing plate 6 is folded, and a rib structure 12 is provided near the edge, and / or the edge of the wall hanging plate 1 is folded, and a rib structure 12 is provided near the edge. The folding treatment and the rib structure 12 can improve the strength of the reinforcing plate 6 or the wall hanging plate 1 on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also conducive to improving the coordinated bearing capacity and strengthening the vertical bearing capacity of the wall hanging device.

[0047] In some embodiments, in order to improve the connection strength between the reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7 of the indoor unit 2, a hook portion 15 is provided on the edge of the reinforcing plate 6, and a clearance hole 16 is provided on the bottom shell 7. The hook portion 15 cooperates with the clearance hole 16, and then cooperates with bolt connection to firmly connect the reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7, and evenly transfer the weight of the indoor unit 2 to the entire reinforcing plate 6. At the same time, the vertical surface of the hook portion 15 cooperates with the inner side surface of the clearance hole 16 to ensure that the reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7 are tightly fitted, and the position is limited in the thickness direction of the indoor unit 2. The horizontal surface of the hook portion 15 cooperates with the top surface of the clearance hole 16 to assist in supporting the weight of the indoor unit 2.

[0048] In some embodiments, reinforcement structures are respectively provided on both sides of the hook portion 15 and the clearance hole 16 to prevent the hook portion 15 or the clearance hole 16 from being torn due to stress concentration.

[0049] In some embodiments, the four corners and edges of the reinforcing plate 6 are evenly distributed with a number of screw holes, which cooperate with the screw columns at the corresponding positions of the bottom shell 7 to prevent the edge of the part from partially warping after being stressed. Since the main load-bearing position is in the upper half of the indoor unit 2, the fixing screws between the reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7 are arranged closely in the upper half and can be arranged loosely in the lower half.

[0050] In some embodiments, the wall-mounted panel 1 includes a first plate body 13 and a second plate body 14. The first plate body 13 is arranged in the horizontal direction, the second plate body 14 is arranged in the vertical direction, the second mounting structure is arranged at the upper edge of the first plate body 13 in the vertical direction, the fourth mounting structure is arranged at the lower edge of the second plate body 14 in the vertical direction, the number of the second mounting structure is the same as the fourth mounting structure, and the projections of the second mounting structure and the fourth mounting structure in the vertical direction coincide. Thus, the load-bearing nodes of the wall-mounted panel 1 and the indoor unit 2 are spaced a certain distance in the vertical direction and are on the same plumb line. The wall-mounted panel 1 provides the indoor unit 2 with multiple parallel columns and two-point stable supports that fit the wall 3. In addition to providing the load-bearing force in the vertical direction, it does not generate torque parallel to the wall 3, and the mounting is more stable and reliable.

[0051] The present invention utilizes the high strength of the metal reinforcing plate 6 to make up for the defect that the bottom shell 7 of the injection molded part is difficult to bear the weight of the indoor unit 2. The reinforcing plate 6 and the bottom shell 7 are fixed together by the hook part 15, the clearance hole 16 and the screws, etc., so that the force of the bottom shell 7 is transferred to a larger area of ​​the metal reinforcing plate 6, effectively avoiding the damage of the bottom shell 7. At the same time, the weight of the indoor unit 2 is transferred to the wall through the tongue 5, the socket 4 and the support structure, effectively avoiding the damage of the wall-mounted plate 1. The local clearance design at the corresponding position of the bottom shell 7 ensures that the indoor unit 2 can be closely attached to the wall after being hung, with good fit and high reliability.

[0052] This embodiment provides an indoor unit 2, which adopts the above-mentioned wall-mounted device.

[0053] When the indoor unit 2 is mounted using the wall-mounted device of the present embodiment, a ring-shaped sticker for guiding the assembly position is first pre-pasted on the wall 2, the corresponding position of the indoor unit 2 is hollowed out, and the position of the wall-mounted plate 1 is marked at the upper end of the assembly position. In this way, when the outdoor unit 2 slides down and is assembled into place, it just covers the hollowed-out position and fits tightly against the wall, and there is no need to tilt the entire machine to observe the assembly condition between the air conditioner and the wall.

[0054] Secondly, the horizontal snap buckle of the bottom shell 7 is changed to a vertical snap buckle 10, and the air avoidance groove 11 of the wall hanging plate 1 is changed from horizontal to vertical, so that the indoor unit 2 can be moved vertically downward, so that the snap buckle 10 is directly inserted into the air avoidance groove 11. After being assembled in place, since the snap buckle 10 of the bottom shell 7 is inelastic, the lower end of the bottom shell 7 is not easy to fall out of the hollow groove 11 of the wall hanging plate 1, and the fixation is reliable. At the same time, since the snap buckle 10 is smaller than the horizontal snap buckle structure, space is saved in the thickness direction of the bottom shell 7.

[0055] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, which adopts the above-mentioned wall-mounting device.

[0056] It is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that, under the premise of no conflict, the above-mentioned advantageous methods can be freely combined and superimposed.

[0057] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure. The above are only preferred implementations of the present disclosure. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and variations can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present disclosure, and these improvements and variations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present disclosure.
