DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] 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.

[0043] See also Figure 1 In the embodiment of the present application, an air conditioner 1 is provided. The air conditioner 1 is used to be installed in a designated area, and the air in the area is sucked into the interior of the air conditioner 1. After being processed by the air conditioner 1, the processed air flow is exported to the designated area to perform air conditioning in the designated area. The air conditioner 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application can solve the technical problem that the air conditioner 1 is inconvenient to be disassembled and assembled in the prior art, which makes it inconvenient to clean the internal parts of the air conditioner 1 and affects the user experience.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the air conditioner 1 includes an air conditioner body 20, a front panel 10 and an air duct structure 30. The air duct structure 30 can be used to suck the air in the area where the air conditioner 1 is installed into the air duct structure 30, and can be used to export the airflow processed by the air conditioner 1 to the area to perform air conditioning on the area. It should be noted that the air duct structure 30 also forms at least one air duct for air flow, and the air duct can be used to provide a guiding effect on the flow of air flow to ensure that the air flow flows to a designated area. The front panel 10 can be used to provide protection and bearing effects to the air duct structure 30, and can also provide protection and bearing effects to the components inside the air conditioner body 20. Further, in the embodiment provided in the present application, the air duct structure 30 includes a first air duct assembly 310 and a second air duct assembly 320, and the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 are detachably connected and together form an air duct for guiding air. That is, in the air conditioner 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the air duct structure 30 is a split structure, and the first air duct component 310 and the second air duct component 320 can be connected to each other to form an air duct, so as to facilitate the air guide of the air conditioner 1 installed with the air duct structure 30; or, the first air duct component 310 and the second air duct component 320 can be detached from each other, so as to facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the internal parts of the first air duct component 310 and the second air duct component 320. In addition, the first air duct component 310 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the front panel 10, and the second air duct component 320 is installed on the air conditioner body 20. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the air duct structure 30 can also be installed on the air conditioner body 20 as a whole, that is, the air duct structure 30 can also not be split into two parts, the first air duct component 310 and the second air duct component 320.

[0045] It should be noted that the air duct structure 30 is installed on the air conditioner body 20. In addition, the front panel 10 can be movably installed on the air conditioner body 20, and the front panel 10 can be detachably connected to the air duct structure 30 to realize the opening and closing of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20. When the front panel 10 needs to be disassembled or opened, the front panel 10 and the air duct structure 30 only need to be detached from each other, so that the purpose of the front panel 10 being movable relative to the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved, so as to facilitate the cleaning or maintenance of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20; similarly, when the front panel 10 needs to be installed, under the premise that the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be movably connected, the installation of the front panel 10 can be completed through the connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, which simplifies the assembly process of the front panel 10 and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3In the embodiment provided in the present application, the front panel 10 has a first side 110 and a second side 120 arranged at intervals, and the first side 110 is movably connected to the air conditioner body 20. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the first side 110 and the second side 120 of the front panel 10 arranged opposite to each other refer to two side edges of the front panel 10 arranged opposite to each other in a straight line direction parallel to the ground when the air conditioner 1 is placed on the ground in a normal operating state. The second side 120 is detachably connected to the second air duct assembly 320. When the air duct structure 30 needs to be cleaned, the second side 120 and the second air duct assembly 320 are separated from each other, and then the front panel 10 is moved relative to the air duct main body 20 through the movable connection between the first side 110 and the air conditioner main body 20, so that the front panel 10 drives the first air duct assembly 310 to be separated from the second air duct assembly 320; when the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 need to be assembled, the front panel 10 drives the first air duct assembly 310 to move relative to the air conditioner main body 20 through the movable connection between the first side 110 and the air conditioner main body 20, and the second side 120 is detachably connected to the second air duct assembly 320, so that the assembly between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner main body 20 can be achieved. In particular, the disassembly and assembly between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner main body 20 and the disassembly and assembly between the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 can be easily achieved through the above method, thereby improving the user experience.

[0047] For further information, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a connecting protrusion 11 is convexly provided on the inner side of the front panel 10, and the connecting protrusion 11 protrudes toward the inner side of the front panel 10. It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the space for accommodating the air duct structure 30 to be enclosed by the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, one side of the front panel 10 is in an arc shape, and a space for accommodating the air duct structure 30 is formed by the concave curved surface, that is, when the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 are assembled as one body, the air duct structure 30 is placed in the space formed by the concave of the front panel 10. Correspondingly, the connecting protrusion 11 is arranged on the concave surface of the front panel 10, so as to facilitate the connection between the connecting protrusion 11 and the air duct structure 30. Optionally, the first air duct component 310 has a front volute tongue 311, which is located at the outlet of the air duct and can be used to guide the airflow. It should be noted that the front panel 10 is also provided with an air outlet 12 for discharging air, and the first air duct assembly 310 is provided corresponding to the air outlet 12, so as to facilitate the airflow to be discharged from the air outlet 12, wherein the front volute tongue 311 is provided corresponding to one side of the air outlet 12. In order to realize the connection between the first air duct assembly 310 and the front panel 10, one end of the connecting protrusion 11 away from the front panel 10 is fixedly connected to the front volute tongue 311.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, in order to facilitate the fixed connection between the front volute tongue 311 and the connecting protrusion 11, a connecting piece 312 corresponding to the connecting protrusion 11 may be protruded on the front volute tongue 311, and the end of the connecting piece 312 away from the front volute tongue 311 is fixedly connected to the connecting protrusion 11. Optionally, the connecting protrusion 11 extends in a straight line, and the connecting piece 312 extends in a straight line, and the end of the connecting piece 312 is connected to the side of the end of the connecting protrusion 11 away from the front panel 10. It should be noted that the fixed connection method can be a snap connection, welding or screw connection, etc.; that is, it can be understood that the fixed connection between the first air duct assembly 310 and the front panel 10 can refer to a detachable connection or a non-detachable fixed connection.

[0049] In addition, the air conditioner body 20 may include a rear panel 210, a reinforcement member 220 and a base 230. The rear panel 210 and the reinforcement member 220 are both mounted on the base 230, so that the base 230 provides support to the rear panel 210 and the reinforcement member 220. It should be noted that when the front panel 10 is mounted on the air conditioner body 20, the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are combined to form a space for accommodating the air duct structure 30, and the base 230 also provides support to the front panel 10. The first side 110 of the front panel 10 can be movably connected to one side of the rear panel 210, and the second side 120 is detachably connected to the second air duct assembly 320 to realize the opening and closing between the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210. The reinforcement member 220 is mounted on the base 230, and the reinforcement member 220 is disposed on the side of the rear panel 210 close to the second side 120, wherein one side of the reinforcement member 220 is attached to the side of the rear panel 210 close to the second side 120, and the second air duct assembly 320 is connected to the side of the reinforcement member 220 away from the rear panel 210, so as to realize the connection between the second air duct assembly 320 and the air conditioner body 20. It should be noted that the reinforcement member 220 can also be disposed between the rear panel 210 and the first side 110.

[0050] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, in order to enhance the reinforcing effect provided by the reinforcement member 220 to the second air duct assembly 320, and also to facilitate the installation of the second air duct assembly 320 on the reinforcement member 220, the reinforcement member 220 is bent to form an S-shape, that is, the cross section of the reinforcement member 220 parallel to the horizontal plane is roughly S-shaped. Of course, in other embodiments, the cross section of the reinforcement member 220 can also be U-shaped or square or other shapes. In addition, the side of the reinforcement member 220 close to the rear panel 210 and the side of the reinforcement member 220 close to the second air duct assembly 320 are both set to be planes, so as to facilitate the cooperation between the reinforcement member 220 and the rear panel 210, and to facilitate the mutual cooperation between the second air duct assembly 320 and the reinforcement member 220.

[0051] The second air duct assembly 320 includes a shell 323 and a rear volute tongue 324. The inner side of the shell 323 is used to enclose the air duct, and the rear volute tongue 324 is located on one side of the shell, and the rear volute tongue 324 is arranged corresponding to the other side of the air outlet 12, that is, the front volute tongue 311 and the rear volute tongue 324 respectively correspond to the two opposite sides of the air outlet 12, and the front volute tongue 311 and the rear volute tongue 324 jointly form the outlet of the air duct, so as to guide the airflow guided by the air duct to be discharged from the air outlet 12. In addition, an extension portion 325 is also provided on the outer side of the shell 323, and the extension portion 325 is connected to the side of the reinforcement 220 away from the rear panel 210. It should be noted that the connection between the extension portion 325 and the reinforcement 220 can be a clamping method, a screw connection method, or a riveting method.

[0052] When the second side 120 of the front panel 10 is required to be connected to the second air duct assembly 320, the second side 120 of the front panel 10 cooperates with the side of the extension 325 away from the reinforcement 220 to achieve the "closing" of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20; when the front panel 10 is required to be detached from the second air duct assembly 320, the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the extension 325 are only required to be detached from each other to achieve the "opening" between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20. As described above, the opening and closing of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved through the detachable connection between the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the extension 325. It should be noted that the detachable connection between the second side 120 and the extension 325 can be achieved by snapping. Of course, in other embodiments, the detachable connection between the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the extension 325 can also be achieved by screw connection or rivet riveting. It should be noted that, at this time, the second side 120 refers to a side of the front panel 10 that is arranged opposite to the first side 110 .

[0053] In addition, the second side 120 can also be detachably connected to the rear volute tongue 324 to realize the opening and closing of the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210, that is, when the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320 need to be connected, the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the outer side of the rear volute tongue 324 cooperate with each other to realize the "closing" of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20; when the front panel 10 needs to be detached from the second air duct assembly 320, the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the rear volute tongue 324 only need to be detached from each other to realize the "opening" between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20. The position where the second side 120 is connected to the rear volute tongue 324 can be the part of the second side 120 on the front panel 10 close to the air outlet 12. It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the second side 120 can be detachably connected to both the extension portion 325 and the rear volute tongue 324 to achieve the opening and closing of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, or the second side 120 can be detachably connected to only the extension portion 325 or the rear volute tongue 324 to achieve the detachable connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, in other words, the second side 120 is detachably connected to the extension portion 325, and / or, the second side 120 is detachably connected to the rear volute tongue 324. It should be noted that at this time, the second side 120 refers to the position on the front panel 10 corresponding to the rear volute tongue 324, that is, the second side 120 refers to one side of the air outlet 12 on the front panel 10.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6In one embodiment of the present application, the first side 110 of the front panel 10 is rotatably connected to the air conditioner body 20 so that the front panel 10 can be flipped relative to the air conditioner body 20. The flipping of the front panel 10 relative to the air conditioner body 20 means that the front panel 10 is rotated with the first side 110 as the rotation center and rotates in an "open door" manner so that the second side 120 is away from or close to the air conditioner body 20. Since the first air duct assembly 310 is fixedly mounted on the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320 is mounted on the air conditioner body 20, when the front panel 10 is rotated relative to the air conditioner body 20 and the second side 120 is away from the air conditioner body 20, the front panel 10 can drive the first air duct assembly 310 to move away from the second air duct assembly 320, so that the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 can be detached by separating the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, saving the process of disassembling the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320, and achieving the purpose of quickly disassembling the air duct structure 30. Of course, when the front panel 10 rotates relative to the air conditioner body 20 and the second side 120 moves close to the air conditioner body 20, the front panel 10 can drive the first air duct assembly 310 to move close to the second air duct assembly 320, and when the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 are installed, the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 are connected to each other, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the air conditioner 1. This can solve the technical problem in the prior art that the air conditioner 1 is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble, which makes it inconvenient to clean the internal parts of the air conditioner 1 and affects the user experience.

[0055] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first side 110 of the front panel 10 is rotatably connected to one side of the rear panel 210, and the second side 120 of the front panel 10 is detachably connected to the second air duct assembly 320 and is in contact with the other side of the rear panel 210, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210. In addition, when the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are connected to each other, the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 jointly enclose a space for installing the air duct structure 30, and the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 can jointly provide an installation bearing function for the air duct structure 30, and can also provide a protective function for the air duct structure 30.

[0056] In order to realize the rotational connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner main body 20, optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the air conditioner 1 may further include a rotational connection portion 212 and a rotation shaft 111, one of which is arranged on the first side 110 of the front panel 10, and the other is arranged on the air conditioner main body 20. That is, the position setting manner of the rotational connection portion 212 and the rotation shaft 111 may be as follows: the rotational connection portion 212 is arranged on the first side 110 of the front panel 10, and the rotation shaft 111 is arranged on one side of the rear panel 210; or, the rotational connection portion 212 is arranged on one side of the rear panel 210, and the rotation shaft 111 is arranged on the first side 110 of the front panel 10. Further, the rotational connection portion 212 and the rotation shaft 111 are rotationally matched to realize the rotational match between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner main body 20, so that the front panel 10 can be flipped relative to the air conditioner main body 20. It should be noted that a hole matching the rotating shaft 111 may be provided on the rotating connection portion 212, and the rotating shaft 111 may be inserted into the hole to achieve the rotational coordination between the rotating connection portion 212 and the rotating shaft 111. In other embodiments, other methods may be used to achieve the mutual rotational connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, for example, the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are rotationally connected by a ball joint, or the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are rotationally connected by a hinge structure.

[0057] Optionally, the front panel 10 is bent into an arc shape that matches the air conditioner body 20, and forms a straight first side 110. The rear panel 210 is bent into an arc shape, and the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are matched, so that when the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 are connected to each other, a space for installing the air duct structure 30 is formed between the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210. Further, a plurality of rotating shafts 111 are arranged at intervals on the first side 110, and the plurality of rotating shafts 111 are arranged coaxially, so that when the rotation connection between the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 is realized by the plurality of rotating shafts 111, smooth and stable rotation between the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 can be ensured. Correspondingly, a plurality of rotating connection parts 212 are arranged on the air conditioner body 20, and the plurality of rotating connection parts 212 are respectively matched with the plurality of rotating shafts 111 for rotation.

[0058] Also, see Fig. 9In another embodiment of the present application, the first side 110 of the front panel 10 is detachably connected to the air conditioner body 20. That is, the first side 110 can be removed from the air conditioner body 20 so that the first side 110 can be moved away from the air conditioner body 20. It should be noted that after the first side 110 is removed from the air conditioner body 20, the front panel 10 can be moved away from the air conditioner body 20, that is, the connection mode of the first side 110 and the air conditioner body 20 can be regarded as one of the movable connection modes of the first side 110 and the air conditioner body 20.

[0059] Optionally, the air conditioner 1 may further include a snap member 112 and a fastener 213, one of which is disposed on the first side 110, and the other is disposed on the air conditioner body 20, and the snap member 112 and the fastener 213 can be detachably matched with each other to achieve a detachable connection between the first side 110 of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20. It should be understood that in some embodiments of the present application, at least one of the snap member 112 and the fastener 213 is disposed on the first side 110, that is, only the snap member 112 may be disposed on the first side 110, or only the fastener 213 may be disposed on the first side 110, or both the snap member 112 and the fastener 213 may be disposed on the first side 110. Correspondingly, at least one of the fastener 112 and the snap-fit ​​213 is provided on the air-conditioning body 20; for example, when only the fastener 112 is provided on the first side 110, only the snap-fit ​​213 can be provided on the air-conditioning body 20; or, when only the snap-fit ​​213 is provided on the first side 110, only the fastener 112 can be provided on the air-conditioning body 20; or, when the fastener 112 and the snap-fit ​​213 are provided on the first side 110, at this time, the fastener 112 and the snap-fit ​​213 are provided on the air-conditioning body 20, and the fastener 112 on the air-conditioning body 20 can cooperate with the snap-fit ​​213 on the first side 110, and the snap-fit ​​213 on the air-conditioning body 20 can cooperate with the fastener 112 on the first side 110.

[0060] When the front panel 10 needs to be disassembled, an external force is applied to the front panel 10 so that the second side 120 is detached from the second air duct assembly 320, and then the first side 110 of the front panel 10 is detached from the air conditioner body 20 by the mutual detachment of the fastener 112 and the fastener 213, so that the purpose of easily detaching the front panel 10 from the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved. After the cleaning operation of the front panel 10, the air conditioner body 20, the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 is completed, the connection between the first side 110 and the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved by the mutual fastening between the fastener 112 and the fastener 213, and the mutual connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved by the detachable connection between the second side 120 and the air conditioner body 20, so that the assembly of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be easily completed. That is, the opening and closing of the front panel 10 relative to the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved by the above method, solving the technical problem that the air conditioner 1 in the prior art is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble, which affects the user experience.

[0061] Here, it is taken as an example that only the fastener 112 is provided on the first side 110 and only the fastener 213 is provided on the air-conditioning body 20, wherein a plurality of spaced fasteners 112 can be provided on the first side 110, and correspondingly, a plurality of spaced fasteners 213 are provided on the air-conditioning body 20, and a stable connection between the front panel 10 and the air-conditioning body 20 can be achieved through the mutual cooperation of the plurality of fasteners 213 and the plurality of fasteners 112.

[0062] In addition, in the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 7 The fastener 112 and the fastener 213 can be engaged in an insert-type engagement. For example, the fastener 213 is provided with a slot 2131 adapted to the fastener 112, and the fastener 112 can be inserted into the slot 2131 to achieve engagement between the fastener 112 and the fastener 213. Alternatively, please refer to Figure 8 The fastener 112 and the engaging member 213 may also be matched in a hook-type manner. For example, the fastener 112 has a curved hook, and the hook has a hook groove 1121. The hook can be hooked on the engaging member 213, and the engaging member 213 is located inside the hook groove 1121, thereby realizing the detachable matching of the fastener 112 and the engaging member 213; in addition, in some embodiments, the hook can rotate relative to the engaging member 213, so that when the hook is hooked on the engaging member 213, it is convenient to flip the front panel 10 relative to the air-conditioning body 20, thereby facilitating the detachable connection between the second side 120 and the air-conditioning body 20.

[0063] It should be noted that, in other embodiments of the present application, the first side 110 and the air conditioner body 20 may be detachably connected by magnetic connection or detachably bonded, etc. It is only necessary to ensure that the first side 110 can be stably connected to the air conditioner body 20 and that the first side 110 can be detached from the air conditioner body 20.

[0064] In addition, please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 , the second side 120 of the front panel 10 is detachably connected to the second air duct assembly 320, so as to realize the opening and closing between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20. Among them, the front panel 10 can be detached from the second air duct assembly 320, and at this time, the front panel 10 can be flipped relative to the air conditioner body 20 to realize the mutual detachment of the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320; or, when the front panel 10 is flipped relative to the air conditioner body 20 and the second side 120 is close to the air conditioner body 20, the assembly of the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be completed through the detachable connection between the second side 120 of the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320, and the assembly of the air duct structure 30 is realized at the same time. While ensuring the stable connection between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, the assembly difficulty between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be reduced, and the technical problem of the air conditioner 1 being difficult to disassemble and assemble can be further solved. It should be noted that the second side 120 is taken as an example as a side of the front panel 10 arranged opposite to the first side 110.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, in order to achieve a detachable connection between the second side 120 and the second air duct assembly 320, the second side 120 is provided with a first snap fastener 121, and the second air duct assembly 320 is provided with a second snap fastener 321 adapted to the first snap fastener 121, and the first snap fastener 121 and the second snap fastener 321 are detachably engaged to achieve a detachable connection between the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the detachable connection between the second side 120 and the second air duct assembly 320 can also be achieved by other means, such as adsorption connection, pin connection, or magnetic connection.

[0066] Optionally, the first snap fastener 121 is protrudingly disposed on the inner side of the first side 110, that is, the first snap fastener 121 is disposed on the inner side of the front panel 10, so that the first snap fastener 121 is snapped onto the second snap fastener 321 on the second air duct assembly 320. In order to make the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320 fit compactly, that is, to make the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 fit compactly with each other, a snap-in groove 322 is formed on the second air duct assembly 320, and the first snap fastener 121 extends into the inside of the snap-in groove 322 and is snapped with the second snap fastener 321, so as to avoid the first snap fastener 121 protrudingly disposed inside the front panel 10 affecting the fit between the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320.

[0067] In addition, in some embodiments of the present application, the second clip 321 includes an elastic connection portion 3211 and a second clip portion 3212. One end of the elastic connection portion 3211 is connected to the inner peripheral wall of the clip groove 322, and the second clip portion 3212 is convexly arranged on the other end of the elastic connection portion 3211. When the first clip 121 and the second clip 321 are engaged with each other, the first clip 121 is engaged with the side of the second clip portion 3212 away from the front panel 10, and then the second clip portion 3212 can provide a holding force to the first clip 121, so as to prevent the clip from falling out of the clip groove 322, thereby achieving the purpose of detachable connection between the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320. Correspondingly, the first clip 121 includes a connecting portion 1211 and a first clamping portion 1212, one end of the connecting portion 1211 is connected to the inner side of the second side 120, the first clamping portion 1212 is arranged at the other end of the connecting portion 1211, and the first clamping portion 1212 protrudes from the side of the connecting portion 1211 close to the second clip 321, so that the first clamping portion 1212 and the second clamping portion 3212 are detachably clamped to each other. When the first clamping portion 1212 and the second clamping portion 3212 are clamped to each other, the second clamping portion 3212 is clamped to the side of the first clamping portion 1212 close to the front panel 10, so as to provide a pressing force to the first clamping portion 1212 toward the second air duct assembly 320, so as to prevent the first clamping portion 1212 from spontaneously falling out of the clamping groove 322, thereby realizing the mutual cooperation between the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320.

[0068] Optionally, in some embodiments of the present application, the elastic connection portion 3211 is bent into a U shape and has an opening 3213, and the opening 3213 is arranged toward one side of the front panel 10. It should be noted that the elastic connection portion 3211 has a first end 32111 and a second end 32112 at the opening 3213, the first end 32111 is connected to the inner peripheral wall of the clamping groove 322, and the second clamping portion 3212 is convexly arranged on the second end 32112 away from the first end 32111, so that the second clamping portion 3212 and the first clamping portion 1212 cooperate with each other. When the first clamping portion 1212 moves from the outside of the clamping slot 322 to the inside of the clamping slot 322, the first clamping portion 1212 can be pressed against the second clamping portion 3212 and push the elastic connection portion 3211 to generate elastic deformation, so that the first clamping portion 1212 bypasses the second clamping portion 3212 and extends into the inside of the clamping slot 322. When the first clamping portion 1212 bypasses the second clamping portion 3212, the elastic connection portion 3211 returns to its original state, so that the first clamping portion 1212 and the second clamping portion 3212 can be mutually clamped, thereby achieving the clamping of the first clamping member 121 and the second clamping member 321.

[0069] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the first fastener 121 and the second fastener 321 may be arranged differently, for example, Fig.11 The first fastener 121 includes a connecting arm 1213 and a clamping head 1214. The clamping head 1214 is circular, and the diameter of the clamping head 1214 is greater than the width of the connecting arm 1213. Correspondingly, a clamping groove 3214 adapted to the first fastener 121 is formed on the second fastener 321. The clamping head 1214 can be inserted into the clamping groove 3214, and then the clamping head 1214 is clamped by the clamping groove 3214, thereby realizing the mutual cooperation between the first fastener 121 and the second fastener 321.

[0070] Please refer to Fig.12 , Fig.13 and Fig.14, when the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320 cooperate with each other to achieve the mutual cooperation between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20, in order to ensure that the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 accurately cooperate with each other, in some embodiments of the present application, the second side 120 is provided with a first positioning structure 122, and the air conditioner body 20 is provided with a second positioning structure 211 adapted to the first positioning structure 122, and when the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320 are connected, the first positioning structure 122 and the second positioning structure 211 cooperate. That is, the positioning between the front panel 10 and the air conditioner body 20 can be achieved by cooperating with the first positioning structure 122 and the second positioning structure 211, which can ensure that the front panel 10 is installed at a designated position on the air conditioner body 20, and ensure the accuracy of the assembly of the front panel 10. It should be noted that the second positioning structure 211 is provided on the rear panel 210, so that the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 can accurately cooperate with each other. It should be noted that the second side 120 here also refers to a side of the front panel 10 that is arranged opposite to the first side 110.

[0071] Optionally, see Fig.13 , Fig.14 , Fig.15 and Fig.16 In some embodiments of the present application, the first positioning structure 122 is protruded on the inner side of the second side 120, and the second positioning structure 211 is provided with a positioning groove 2111 adapted to the first positioning structure 122, and the first positioning structure 122 extends into the positioning groove 2111 to achieve mutual cooperation between the first positioning structure 122 and the second positioning structure 211. It should be noted that the first positioning structure 122 is in the shape of a long strip, and the first positioning structure 122 is protruded on the front panel 10. When the front panel 10 moves close to the rear panel 210 and the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 cooperate with each other, one end of the first positioning structure 122 extends into the positioning groove 2111, thereby achieving the positioning of the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210. Furthermore, when the first positioning structure 122 extends into the positioning groove 2111, the first positioning structure 122 and the positioning groove 2111 cooperate with each other to provide a limiting effect on the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210, thereby preventing the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210 from being misaligned. It should be noted that the first positioning structure 122 can also be regarded as a reinforcing rib protruding from the inner side of the front panel 10, thereby providing a reinforcing effect on the front panel 10.

[0072] Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the first positioning structure 122 and the second positioning structure 211 may be arranged differently. For example, a positioning groove 2111 is provided on the first positioning structure 122 , and the second positioning structure 211 is a protrusion protruding from the rear panel 210 .

[0073] In the air conditioner 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the front panel 10 and the air duct structure 30 need to be disassembled, an external force is applied to the front panel 10 so that the first latch 121 and the second latch 321 are separated from each other, and the front panel 10 can be opened at this time. Under the action of the external force, the front panel 10 can be flipped relative to the air conditioner body 20, so that the front panel 10 drives the first air duct assembly 310 to move away from the second air duct assembly 320, and the purpose of disassembling the air duct structure 30 is achieved at the same time. When the front panel 10 is rotated to a sufficient distance, the front panel 10 and the first air duct assembly 310 are removed, and the disassembly of the front panel 10 and the air duct structure 30 can be completed, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency, facilitating the cleaning of the air conditioner 1, and solving the technical problems in the prior art that the air conditioner 1 is inconvenient to disassemble, resulting in inconvenient cleaning of the internal parts of the air conditioner 1, and affecting the user experience. When the front panel 10 and the air duct structure 30 need to be installed, the front panel 10 is turned over relative to the rear panel 210 by the mutual cooperation of the rotating connecting portion 212 and the rotating shaft 111, so that the rear panel 210 can move toward the air conditioner body 20. When the front panel 10 moves to a certain position, the first air duct assembly 310 and the second air duct assembly 320 can be engaged with each other to achieve the assembly of the air duct structure 30. At the same time, the first fastener 121 on the front panel 10 and the second fastener 321 on the second air duct assembly 320 cooperate with each other to achieve the mutual connection of the front panel 10 and the second air duct assembly 320, and to achieve the mutual cooperation between the front panel 10 and the rear panel 210. The assembly of the front panel 10 and the air duct structure 30 can be completed, the difficulty of assembling the air conditioner 1 is reduced, the assembly efficiency can be improved, and the technical problem of inconvenient assembly of the air conditioner 1 in the prior art is solved.
