[0038] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail, examples of which 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 to be used to explain the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0039] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of the invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. Additionally, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided in this invention; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0040] Hereinafter, a mounting box 100 for an air conditioner 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The air conditioner 200 includes a switch door 102 and a drive device. The drive device is connected to the switch door 102 to drive the switch door 102 to move at the air outlet 101a of the air conditioner 200, so that the switch door 102 can open or close the air outlet 101a.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting box 100 includes a box body 1, which is an integrally molded part. The box body 1 includes a mounting part 11 and a guide part 12. The mounting part 11 is suitable for mounting a drive device, and the guide part 12 is suitable for cooperating with the opening and closing door 102 to guide the movement of the opening and closing door 102. Since the mounting part 11 and the guide part 12 are formed as an integral part, the mounting part 11 and the guide part 12 can be installed in one step during the installation process of the mounting box 100, which simplifies the installation process of the mounting box 100. At the same time, it is easy to ensure the structural strength of the box body 1 and facilitate the molding of the box body 1, thereby ensuring the reliable use of the mounting box 100 and facilitating diversified design.

[0042] It is understood that box 1 can be manufactured as a single piece, forming a monolithic structure. For example, box 1 can be formed in one step, or it can be cast as a single piece. Of course, the invention is not limited to this; another part of box 1 can be formed after one part of box 1 has been formed, in which case box 1 can be formed after two processing steps. In other words, regardless of how many processing steps box 1 undergoes, it is sufficient that box 1 is a single piece after it is formed.

[0043] Compared to some technologies that separately set up mounting parts and guide parts, with the mounting part used to install the drive device and the guide part used to guide the opening and closing of the door, since the mounting part and guide part are independently set and each is a separately molded part, the mounting part and guide part each need to have a separate installation structure, which easily leads to a large amount of material used for the mounting part and guide part, resulting in higher costs. In addition, the mounting part and guide part need to be installed sequentially, making the installation process of the mounting part and guide part 12 more cumbersome. In this application, the box body 1 is formed as a one-piece molded part, and the mounting part 11 of the box body 1 is used to install the drive device and the guide part 12 is used to guide the opening and closing of the door 102. This simplifies the installation process of the mounting part 11 and guide part 12, facilitates the installation of the mounting box 100, and helps to improve the assembly efficiency of the air conditioner 200. Moreover, the mounting box 100 does not need to set up a lot of installation structures to achieve installation, which helps to save material and reduce costs.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, the mounting box 100 is configured such that the guide portion 12 is adapted to support the opening and closing door 102. Thus, the guide portion 12 can bear at least part of the weight of the opening and closing door 102. Therefore, the guide portion 12 can both guide the movement of the opening and closing door 102 and bear the weight of the opening and closing door 102, which facilitates the realization of multiple uses of the box 1. When the mounting box 100 is applied to the air conditioner 200, it helps to reduce the number of parts of the air conditioner 200 and simplify the structure of the air conditioner 200.

[0045] Therefore, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting box 100 for the air conditioner 200, by setting the box body 1 as an integral molded part, makes the mounting part 11 for mounting the drive device and the guide part 12 for guiding the movement of the switch door 102 form an integral part, which facilitates the installation of the mounting box 100, improves the assembly efficiency of the air conditioner 200, saves materials, reduces costs, and ensures the connection strength between the mounting part 11 and the guide part 12, making the mounting box 100 reliable in use; moreover, by setting the guide part 12 for guiding the movement of the switch door 102 and for supporting the switch door 102, the structure of the air conditioner 200 is simplified, and the assembly process of the air conditioner 200 is simplified.

[0046] In some embodiments, the guide portion 12 is adapted to be disposed on the upper side and / or lower side of the switch door 102, including the following cases: 1. The guide portion 12 is adapted to be disposed on the upper side of the switch door 102, then the mounting box 100 is adapted to be disposed on the upper side of the switch door 102; 2. The guide portion 12 is adapted to be disposed on the lower side of the switch door 102, then the mounting box 100 is adapted to be disposed on the lower side of the switch door 102; 3. The guide portion 12 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the switch door 102, then the mounting box 100 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the switch door 102. Therefore, the mounting box 100 is flexibly configured, facilitating diverse structures of the air conditioner 200.

[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the box 1 is provided with at least one supporting guide rib 2, which is adapted to be supported on the panel bracket 101 of the air conditioner 200. The supporting guide rib 2 is located on the bottom wall of the outer side of the box 1. Thus, when the mounting box 100 is applied to the air conditioner 200, the mounting box 100 can be installed on the panel bracket 101, and the supporting guide rib 2 is supported on the panel bracket 101. This allows the panel bracket 101 to also provide some support to the mounting box 100 through the supporting guide rib 2, which helps to improve the load-bearing capacity of the mounting box 100 and ensures that the guide part 12 stably supports the opening and closing door 102 and the mounting part 11 stably supports the drive device. Moreover, for the mounting box 100 in this application, there is no need to change the structure of the panel bracket 101, which simplifies the structural design of the air conditioner 200.

[0048] The supporting guide ribs 2 can be one or more; when there are multiple supporting guide ribs 2, they are spaced apart, so that the supporting force of the panel bracket 101 on the box body 1 is more dispersed, which helps to reduce the deformation of the box body 1. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more.

[0049] Compared to some technologies where no supporting structure is provided between the guide member used to guide the opening and closing of the door and the panel bracket (for example, the relative position of the guide member and the panel bracket makes it impossible to provide a supporting structure, or the bottom wall of the guide member is spaced apart from the panel bracket), the connection structure between the guide member and the panel bracket needs to withstand a large force, which places high demands on the connection structure; in this application, by providing a supporting guide rib 2 at the bottom of the box body 1, the supporting guide rib 2 can be supported on the panel bracket 101, which facilitates ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the guide part 12 for the opening and closing door 102.

[0050] Optionally, the housing 1 and the supporting guide rib 2 are integrated as a single unit, which facilitates the reliable connection between the housing 1 and the supporting guide rib 2. This helps ensure the load-bearing capacity of the supporting guide rib 2, thereby ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the guide part 12.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support guide rib 2 is located at the bottom of the guide part 12. The support guide rib 2 is located on the bottom wall of the outer side of the guide part 12, so that the panel bracket 101 can directly support the guide part 12 through the support guide rib 2, which further improves the load-bearing capacity of the guide part 12. At the same time, it helps to reduce or avoid the deformation of the guide part 12 caused by bearing the opening and closing door 102, and ensures the stability of the box body 1 structure.

[0052] exist Figure 2In the example, there are multiple support guide ribs 2, all of which are located at the bottom of the guide part 12 and are spaced apart along the extension direction of the guide part 12 to further prevent deformation of the guide part 12.

[0053] Of course, the support guide rib 2 can also be provided at the bottom of the mounting part 11, or the support guide rib 2 can be provided at the bottom of both the guide part 12 and the bottom of the mounting part 11.

[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figures 2-5 As shown, the supporting guide rib 2 includes a supporting rib 21 and a guide rib 22, the guide rib 22 being along a first direction (e.g., Figure 4 Extending in the front-back direction, the support rib 21 is connected to one end of the guide rib 22, and the support rib 21 extends along the second direction (e.g., in the front-back direction). Figure 4 Extending in the left and right directions, the second direction forms a non-zero angle with the first direction, meaning the second direction is not parallel to the first direction. This facilitates ensuring the support stability of the guide rib 2 and guarantees the load-bearing capacity of the box body 1.

[0055] exist Figure 3 In the example, there are multiple guide ribs 22, which are spaced apart along the second direction and are all connected to the same side of the support rib 21. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, so each guide rib 22 is perpendicularly connected to the support rib 21. Therefore, the support guide rib 2 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the supporting guide rib 2 includes at least one guide rib 22. The guide rib 22 includes a guide portion 221 and a support portion 222. The guide portion 221 and the support portion 222 are arranged sequentially along the length of the guide rib 22. The height of the guide portion 221 gradually increases towards the support portion 222 until it is equal to the height of the support portion 222. When the mounting box 100 is applied to the air conditioner 200, during installation, the box body 1 can be fitted onto the panel bracket 101 from the support portion 222 towards the guide portion 221. During the fitting process, relative to the panel bracket 101, the height of the guide rib 22 first gradually increases and then remains constant. This allows the guide portion 221 to quickly guide the box body 1 to the installation position, so that the support portion 222 is supported on the panel bracket 101. This helps to reduce the obstruction effect of the guide portion 221 on the installation of the box body 1 and improves the installation efficiency of the mounting box 100. The guide rib 22 can be one or more.

[0057] For example, in Figure 2-Figure 4 In the example, the guide rib 22 can extend in a straight line in the front-back direction, the guide part 221 is located on the rear side of the guide rib 22, the support part 222 is located on the front side of the guide rib 22, and the box body 1 can be fitted to the panel bracket 101 from front to back.

[0058] Of course, the height of the guide rib 22 can remain constant along the length of the guide rib 22.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple guide ribs 22 to ensure the supporting function of the guide ribs 2. The multiple guide ribs 22 are arranged in parallel, so that the guiding directions of the multiple guide ribs 22 are parallel to each other, which helps to ensure the installation efficiency of the mounting box 100.

[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the supporting guide rib 2 also includes a supporting rib 21. The supporting rib 21 is located on the same side of the length of the multiple guide ribs 22, and the supporting rib 21 is connected to the supporting part 222 of the multiple guide ribs 22. Thus, the multiple guide ribs 22 can be spaced apart along the length direction of the supporting rib 21, so that the supporting rib 21 and the guide rib 22 can form a whole, which is beneficial to improving the supporting stability of the supporting guide rib 2 and ensuring the supporting function of the supporting guide rib 2.

[0061] Optionally, the height of the support rib 21 can be equal to the height of the support portion 222 of the guide rib 22, so that both the support rib 21 and the guide rib 22 play a supporting role, further ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the support guide rib 2.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, a support member 103 is engaged between the bottom of the housing 1 and the panel bracket 101 of the air conditioner 200. The panel bracket 101 can also support the housing 1 via the support member 103, which helps to further enhance the load-bearing capacity of the mounting box 100 and further ensures that the guide part 12 stably supports the door opening / closing 102 and the mounting part 11 stably supports the drive device. The support member 103 is mounted on the mounting box 100 or the panel bracket 101, allowing for flexible placement.

[0063] For example, in Figure 7 In the example, the support member 103 is provided on the panel bracket 101, and the support member 103 and the panel bracket 101 can be formed as one piece to facilitate the forming of the support member 103.

[0064] Optionally, the side surface of the support member 103 facing the box body 1 can be arranged parallel to the bottom wall of the box body 1 or inclined relative to the bottom wall of the box body 1, as long as it is ensured that the support member 103 is supported on the bottom of the box body 1 after the mounting box 100 is installed to the panel bracket 101.

[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5As shown, the support member 103 is supported at the bottom of the mounting part 11, so that the panel bracket 101 can directly support the mounting part 11 through the support member 103, which improves the load-bearing capacity of the mounting part 11, and at the same time helps to reduce or avoid the deformation of the mounting part 11 caused by the load-bearing drive device, thus ensuring the stability of the box body 1 structure.

[0066] Of course, the support member 103 can also be supported at the bottom of the guide part 12, or the support member 103 can be provided at the bottom of both the mounting part 11 and the bottom of the guide part 12.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the mounting box 100 is provided with at least one support guide rib 2. The support guide rib 2 is adapted to be supported on the panel bracket 101 of the air conditioner 200. The height of the support guide rib 2 is less than the height of the support member 103. The support guide rib 2 is correspondingly located at a position with a small vertical spacing between the box body 1 and the panel bracket 101, while the support member 103 is correspondingly located at a position with a large vertical spacing between the box body 1 and the panel bracket 101. This effectively ensures the load-bearing capacity of the box body 1 and ensures that the box body 1 stably supports the opening and closing door 102 and the drive device.

[0068] The height of the support guide rib 2 refers to the height of the support guide rib 2 in the vertical direction. Similarly, the height of the support member 103 refers to the height of the support member 103 in the vertical direction.

[0069] For example, in Figure 6 In the example, the support guide rib 2 is located at the bottom of the guide part 12, and the support member 103 is supported at the bottom of the mounting part 11, so that the position of the support guide rib 2 and the support member 103 can be well matched with the panel bracket 101, thereby reducing the cost of the air conditioner 200 without modifying the structure of the panel bracket 101.

[0070] According to a second aspect embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 200 includes a panel bracket 101, a door switch 102, a drive device, and a mounting box 100. The mounting box 100 is the mounting box 100 for the air conditioner 200 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present invention described above.

[0071] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, an air outlet 101a is formed on the panel bracket 101. A switch door 102 is movably disposed at the air outlet 101a to open or close the air outlet 101a. A drive device is connected to the switch door 102 to drive the switch door 102 to move. A mounting box 100 is mounted on the panel bracket 101. A mounting part 11 defines a mounting cavity 110. A drive device is mounted in the mounting cavity 110. A guide groove 120 is formed on the guide part 12 of the mounting box 100. The switch door 102 is engaged with the guide groove 120 and slides along the guide groove 120.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 200 adopts the above-described mounting box 100, which simplifies the structure and improves assembly efficiency.

[0073] For example, in Figure 4 In the example, the air conditioner 200 is a cabinet air conditioner 200. The mounting box 100 is located on the lower side of the switch door 102. The mounting part 11 defines a mounting cavity 110, and the top of the mounting cavity 110 is open to facilitate quick installation of the drive device. The top of the guide groove 120 on the guide part 12 is open, and the lower end of the switch door 102 engages with the guide groove 120 to allow the switch door 102 to slide along the extension direction of the guide groove 120, thereby opening or closing the air outlet 101a. The drive device may include a gear transmission mechanism, but is not limited to it.
