[0034] In an optional embodiment, the buckle portion includes:

[0035] A contraction section connected to the curved portion;

[0036] The limiting section is connected to the contraction section, and the first buckle goes over the limiting section and is matched with the contraction section.

[0037] In this way, the buckle portion has a simple structure and stable clamping.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the first buckle is connected to an end of the connecting body away from the hinge.

[0039] In this way, after the first buckle and the second buckle are connected, the structure is stable and not easy to be separated accidentally. In actual operation, when opening the sliding door, the user generally applies force to the end away from the hinge, that is, the position where the first buckle and the second buckle are applied, so that the user can easily open the sliding door. In addition, the first buckle is connected to the end of the connecting body away from the hinge, which can also maximize the opening of the connecting part relative to the rack part.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, after the first buckle is engaged with the second buckle, the connecting body is located vertically above the rack body.

[0041] In this way, the rack part can support the connecting part and enhance the overall structural strength. Moreover, the connecting part can be stably connected to the rack part under the action of its own gravity, which can further reduce other reinforcing parts, simplify the structure, improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency, and minimize the space occupied by the two, making the air conditioner smaller in size.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, the connecting portion and the rack portion are arc-shaped structures with equal curvatures.

[0043] In this way, after the connecting portion and the rack portion are engaged with each other, the two can be located in the same arc surface, which can minimize the space occupied by the two and also make the volume of the air conditioner smaller.

[0044] In order to solve the above problems, in a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an air conditioner, the air conditioner comprising:

[0045] Sliding doors;

[0046] In the separate rack structure described in the first aspect, the connecting portion is connected to the sliding door, and the rack portion is slidably mounted on the air conditioner body.

[0047] In this way, when installing the sliding door on the air conditioner body, you only need to connect the connecting part of the sliding door to the rack part on the air conditioner body to complete the installation of the sliding door. There is no need to use too many screws. The operation is simple and the assembly efficiency is high. When the sliding door needs to be removed from the air conditioner body, you only need to separate the connecting part of the sliding door from the rack part on the air conditioner body to remove the sliding door as a whole. The disassembly is simple and the disassembly efficiency is high.

[0048] Moreover, the connecting part is connected to the sliding door to avoid the use of too many screws to connect the two, and the connecting part is used to connect with the rack part, which further simplifies the connection between the lining plate and the rack part.

[0049] The air conditioner provided by this embodiment is easy to assemble and disassemble, which greatly facilitates the removal of the sliding door to clean the inside of the air conditioner or the removal of the internal fan blades for cleaning.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, the sliding door includes a lining plate, and the connecting portion and the lining plate are integrally formed by an injection molding process, or the connecting portion and the lining plate are separately formed and then snap-fitted into the integrated structure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0064] The sliding doors of existing cabinet air conditioners are all driven by transmission between gears and racks. The traditional rack is an integral type. When installing, the rack slot is hung on the sliding door, and then the fixing plate is installed to fasten the rack slot to the sliding door, and finally the rack slot is fixed to the sliding door with screws. The whole process not only uses a lot of screws, but also has complicated operations and difficult disassembly and assembly, resulting in low work efficiency. Therefore, this embodiment provides a sliding door and an air conditioner, which can solve the above technical problems.

[0065] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0066] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment includes a sliding door 110, an air conditioner body 120 and a separate rack structure 130. The air conditioner 100 here can be a cabinet air conditioner, a floor-standing air conditioner, etc.

[0067] Specifically, the sliding door 110 includes a sliding panel 111 and a lining plate 112, and the separate rack structure 130 includes a connecting portion 113 and a rack portion 114. The lining plate 112 is installed on the inner side of the sliding panel 111, and the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 form an integrated structure. The rack portion 114 can be slidably installed on the air conditioner body 120 and is detachably hinged to the connecting portion 113.

[0068] In this way, when installing the sliding door on the air-conditioning body 120, it is only necessary to connect the connecting part 113 of the sliding door to the rack part 114 on the air-conditioning body 120 to complete the installation of the sliding door. There is no need to use too many screws, the operation is simple, and the assembly efficiency is high. When the sliding door needs to be removed from the air-conditioning body 120, it is only necessary to separate the connecting part 113 of the sliding door from the rack part 114 on the air-conditioning body 120 to remove the sliding door as a whole. The disassembly is simple and the disassembly efficiency is high.

[0069] Moreover, the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 form an integrated structure, which avoids the use of too many screws to connect the two, and the connecting portion 113 is used to connect with the rack portion 114, further simplifying the connection between the lining plate 112 and the rack portion 114.

[0070] The sliding door 110 provided in this embodiment is easy to assemble and disassemble, which greatly facilitates the removal of the sliding door to clean the inside of the air conditioner 100 or to take out the internal fan blades for cleaning.

[0071] There are many options for the number of the connection parts 113 and the rack parts 114. In this embodiment, the sliding door 110 includes two connection parts 113 and two rack parts 114. The two connection parts 113 are distributed at both ends of the length direction of the lining plate 112, and the two rack parts 114 are respectively hinged to the two connection parts 113. In this way, the connection parts 113 are provided at both ends of the length direction of the lining plate 112, which can strengthen the connection strength between the sliding door and the main body of the air conditioner 100, and also make the movement of the sliding door relative to the main body 120 of the air conditioner stable and reliable.

[0072] In other embodiments, the separate rack structure 130 may include a connecting portion 113 and a rack portion 114, and the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are located in the middle position in the length direction of the lining plate 112. In this way, it can not only support the lining plate 112, but also make the overall structure simpler, the number of parts is reduced, and the disassembly and assembly efficiency is higher.

[0073] The air conditioner body 120 includes a front panel 121 and a rear panel 122 . The front panel 121 and the rear panel 122 are connected to each other, and the sliding door 110 is slidably mounted on the front panel 121 .

[0074] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 There are many options for connecting the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 to form an integrated structure. For example, the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 are integrally formed by injection molding, or the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 are separately formed and then connected to form an integrated structure by a clamping member. In this embodiment, the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 are integrally formed by injection molding. In this way, the connection between the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 is simple, which simplifies the disassembly and assembly process of the sliding door and improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0075] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 The connecting portion 113 includes a connecting body 1131 and a first buckle 1132, the first buckle 1132 is connected to the connecting body 1131, and a connecting hole 1135 is opened on the connecting body 1131, wherein the first buckle 1132 and the connecting hole 1135 are respectively located at two ends of the connecting body 1131 in the length direction.

[0076] The first buckle 1132 includes a connecting plate 1133 and a hook 1134 . The connecting plate 1133 is connected to one side of the connecting body 1131 close to the rack portion 114 . The hook 1134 is connected to the connecting plate 1133 . The hook 1134 is used to cooperate with the second buckle 1143 .

[0077] The rack portion 114 includes a rack body 1141, a rotating shaft 1142, and a second buckle 1143, wherein the second buckle 1143 is connected to the rack body 1141, and the second buckle 1143 cooperates with the first buckle 1132. In this way, the connection portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are connected in a snap-fit ​​manner, so that the connection portion 113 can be prevented from accidentally detaching from the rack portion 114, thereby preventing the sliding door from accidentally opening from the air conditioner body 120.

[0078] Among them, the second buckle 1143 and the rotating shaft 1142 are respectively located at the two ends of the length direction of the rack body 1141, so that the two ends of the rack part 114 are respectively used to connect with the two ends of the connecting part 113, so that after the two are connected, the structure is stable and not easy to be accidentally separated. Moreover, when opening the sliding door, the user generally applies force to the end away from the rotating shaft 1142, that is, the force is applied to the position of the first buckle 1132 and the second buckle 1143, so that the user can easily open the sliding door. Moreover, the rotating shaft 1142 is located at the end of the rack body 1141, which can also maximize the opening of the connecting part 113 relative to the rack part 114.

[0079] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second buckle 1143 is an elastic buckle, and the second buckle 1143 includes a bent portion 1144 and a buckle portion 1145, wherein the buckle portion 1145 includes a contraction section 1146 and a limit section 1147, the bent portion 1144 is connected to the rack body 1141, the contraction section 1146 is connected to the bent portion 1144, the limit section 1147 is connected to the contraction section 1146, and the first buckle 1132 passes over the limit section 1147 and is matched with the contraction section 1146. In this way, the buckle portion 1145 has a simple structure and stable clamping.

[0080] The inclination angle of the buckle portion 1145 relative to the length direction of the rack body 1141 is 30° to 60°, preferably 45°. In this way, not only the connection part 113 and the rack part 114 are convenient to connect and separate, but also the buckle portion 1145 can guide the connection part 113.

[0081] In other embodiments, the first buckle 1132 and the second buckle 1143 may also adopt other structural forms, for example, see Fig. 9 The first buckle 1132 may be a hook 1134, and the second buckle 1143 may include a slot, and the hook 1134 cooperates with the slot. Specifically, the hook 1134 is used to pass through the slot and hook on the side of the rack portion 114 close to the air conditioner body 120. In this way, the clamping form between the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 is simple and reliable.

[0082] In other embodiments, the first buckle 1132 may include a slot, the second buckle 1143 may be a hook 1134, or both the first buckle 1132 and the second buckle 1143 may be hooks 1134, as long as the first buckle 1132 and the second buckle 1143 can form a detachable snap connection.

[0083] In other embodiments, the connecting portion 113 may not include the first buckle 1132, and the rack portion 114 may not include the second buckle 1143. By making the rotating shaft 1142 have a certain damping in the connecting hole 1135 of the connecting body 1131, the connecting portion 113 will not rotate arbitrarily relative to the rotating shaft 1142, which can also play a role in stabilizing the relative position of the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114. In other words, the connecting hole 1135 and the rotating shaft 1142 are designed to have an interference fit, while also allowing the user to rotate the connecting portion 113 relative to the rotating shaft 1142. In this way, other clamping components between the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 can be omitted, thereby further simplifying the structural form and improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0084] In the actual installation of the sliding door 110, the connecting portion 113 is located vertically above the rack portion 114. The rack portion 114 can also support the connecting portion 113. The connecting portion 113 can be firmly connected to the rack portion 114 under the action of its own gravity, which can reduce other connecting parts used to connect the two.

[0085] That is to say, the rotating shaft 1142 on the rack portion 114 is designed to be in a vertical state in actual use, and after the connecting hole 1135 on the connecting portion 113 cooperates with the rotating shaft 1142, the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 can stabilize the positions of each other.

[0086] Preferably, the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are both arc-shaped structures, and the curvatures of the two are equal. After the two are mutually engaged, the two can be located in the same arc surface, so that the space occupied by the two can be minimized, and the volume of the air conditioner 100 can be reduced. Furthermore, the curvatures of the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are equal to the curvature of the lining plate 112, so that the lining plate 112 and the connecting portion 113 are fitted together, and the volume of the air conditioner 100 can be further reduced.

[0087] In the actual installation of the separate rack structure 130, the connecting part 113 is located vertically above the rack part 114, and the rack part 114 can also support the connecting part 113. The connecting part 113 can be firmly connected to the rack part 114 under the action of its own gravity, which can reduce other connecting parts used to connect the two.

[0088] The rotating shaft 1142 and the second buckle 1143 are respectively located at the two ends of the rack body 1141. In this way, the two ends of the rack body 1141 are respectively used to connect with the two ends of the connecting body 1131, so that after the two are connected, the structure is stable and not easy to be accidentally separated. Moreover, in actual operation, when opening the sliding door, the user generally applies force to the end away from the rotating shaft 1142, that is, the force is applied to the position of the first buckle 1132 and the second buckle 1143, so that the user can easily open the sliding door. In addition, the first buckle 1132 is connected to the end of the connecting body 1131 away from the rotating shaft 1142, which can also maximize the opening of the connecting part 113 relative to the rack part 114.

[0089] The working process of the separate rack structure 130 and the air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0090] When the sliding door 110 is closed relative to the air conditioner body 120, the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are engaged with each other;

[0091] When it is necessary to clean the inside of the air conditioner or remove the inner fan blades for cleaning, the sliding door 110 is opened, the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are separated, and the connecting portion 113 rotates around the rotating shaft 1142, so that the inside of the air conditioner can be cleaned conveniently or the inner fan blades can be removed for cleaning;

[0092] Furthermore, if it is necessary to completely remove the sliding door 110 from the air conditioner body 120, after the sliding door 110 is opened, the rotating shaft 1142 is pulled out from the connecting hole 1135, and the sliding door 110 can be completely removed from the air conditioner body 120, which is easy to operate and has high removal efficiency.

[0093] After the cleaning work is completed, the rotating shaft 1142 is inserted into the connecting hole 1135, and then the sliding door 110 is closed, and the connecting portion 113 rotates around the rotating shaft 1142, and the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 are re-engaged.

[0094] The separated rack structure 130 and the air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment have the following beneficial effects:

[0095] 1. The rack of the existing sliding door is designed as a detachable separation structure in this embodiment, so that the sliding door 110 can be opened or closed relative to the air conditioner body 120. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the air conditioner or take out the inner unit fan blades for cleaning, the sliding door 110 is opened to conveniently clean the inside of the air conditioner or take out the inner unit fan blades for cleaning. After the cleaning work is completed, the sliding door 110 can be closed, avoiding the need to completely remove the sliding door from the air conditioner body 120, and achieving the purpose of disassembling and cleaning the inner unit fan blades without removing the sliding door, which can save disassembly and assembly time and improve work efficiency, and can also optimize the air quality of the air conditioner, create a green and healthy living environment, and improve user experience and comfort;

[0096] 2. More importantly, the connecting portion 113 and the lining plate 112 form an integrated structure, avoiding the use of too many screws to connect the two, and the connecting portion 113 is used to connect with the rack portion 114, further simplifying the connection between the lining plate 112 and the rack portion 114, and making it easy to disassemble and assemble the sliding door 110, which greatly facilitates the removal of the sliding door to clean the inside of the air conditioner 100 or to take out the internal fan blades for cleaning;

[0097] 3. If the sliding door 110 needs to be completely removed from the air conditioner body 120, the sliding door 110 is first opened, and then the rotating shaft 1142 is pulled out from the connecting hole 1135, so that the sliding door 110 can be completely removed from the air conditioner body 120, which is easy to operate and has high removal efficiency;

[0098] 4. The rack portion 114 can support the connecting portion 113, thereby enhancing the overall structural strength. Moreover, the connecting portion 113 can be stably connected to the rack portion 114 under the action of its own gravity, thereby further reducing other reinforcing parts, simplifying the structure, and improving the efficiency of assembly and disassembly. Moreover, the space occupied by the two can be minimized, and the volume of the air conditioner 100 can also be reduced.

[0099] 5. The second buckle 1143 is an elastic buckle, which not only facilitates the connection and separation of the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 , but also the buckle portion 1145 can guide the connecting portion 113 .

[0100] It is easy to understand that the sliding door 110 provided in this embodiment can be used in various types of air conditioners. As long as a sliding door is required, the sliding door 110 provided in this embodiment can be used on the equipment. These equipments using the sliding door 110 provided in this embodiment should all fall within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0101] In the separate rack structure 130 and the air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment, based on the basic concept of the connecting part 113 and the lining plate 112 forming an integrated structure, a variety of deformation structures can be expanded. As long as the following two basic concepts are adopted, they should all fall within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0102] First basic concept: the connecting portion 113 and the rack portion 114 form a separable rack, which is used to drive the sliding door to slide. Most conventional racks are integral;
