[0034] It is worth noting that the volute fixing plate 140 is detachably connected to the outer shell 110 to separate the inner cavity of the outer shell 110 into a first cavity 112 and a second cavity 113. The air outlet mechanism 120 is disposed in the first cavity 112 and is detachably connected to the volute fixing plate 140, and the evaporator assembly 130 is disposed in the second cavity 113 and is detachably connected to the volute fixing plate 140, that is, the air outlet mechanism 120 and the evaporator assembly 130 are disposed on both sides of the volute fixing plate 140. The outer shell 110 is provided with an outlet 114, which is in communication with the first cavity 112, and the outlet 114 is used for the air outlet mechanism 120, the volute fixing plate 140 and the evaporator assembly 130 to be removed.

The second disassembly method is: first, the air outlet mechanism 120 is disassembled from the volute fixing plate 140, and then the air outlet mechanism 120 is removed from the outlet 114, then the volute fixing plate 140 is disassembled from the outer shell 110, and then the volute fixing plate 140 and the evaporator assembly 130 are removed from the outlet 114 together. The third disassembly method is: first, the volute fixing plate 140 is disassembled from the outer shell 110, the volute fixing plate 140 is disassembled from the evaporator assembly 130, and then the volute fixing plate 140 and the air outlet mechanism 120 are removed from the outlet 114 together, and finally the evaporator assembly 130 is removed from the outlet 114. The fourth disassembly method is to first disassemble the air outlet mechanism 120 from the volute fixing plate 140, then disassemble the air outlet mechanism 120 from the outlet 114, then disassemble the volute fixing plate 140 from the outer shell 110, disassemble the volute fixing plate 140 from the evaporator assembly 130, then disassemble the volute fixing plate 140 from the outlet 114, and finally disassemble the evaporator assembly 130 from the outlet 114.

The volute fixing plate 140 is arranged between the top cover plate 115 and the bottom plate 116, one side of the volute fixing plate 140 is detachably connected to the top cover plate 115, and the other side is detachably connected to the bottom plate 116, so as to separate the housing 110 into a first cavity 112 and a second cavity 113. During the detachment process of the volute fixing plate 140 and the outer shell 110 , it is necessary to detach the volute fixing plate 140 from the top cover plate 115 , and to detach the volute fixing plate 140 from the bottom plate 116 .

Specifically, the position of the first through hole 141 corresponds to the position of the first threaded hole 1151, and the screw can pass through the first through hole 141 and be tightened relative to the first threaded hole 1151 to fix the volute fixing plate 140 on the top cover plate 115.
[0039] Furthermore, since the fixing portion 1152 and the connecting portion 142 are both arranged in the first cavity 112, and the first cavity 112 is connected to the outlet 114, the staff can directly install or remove the screws through the outlet 114 and in the first cavity 112, thereby installing the volute fixing plate 140 on the top cover plate 115 or removing the volute fixing plate 140 from the top cover plate 115.

Specifically, the evaporator 131, the first support block 153 and the two second support blocks 154 jointly form a sealed cavity. The outside air enters the sealed cavity under the negative pressure generated by the air outlet mechanism 120, and then is blown out to the room through the evaporator 131 and the air outlet mechanism 120 in turn to control the indoor temperature, which can effectively prevent air leakage and improve the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator 131.

The distance between the pipe joint 135 and the side of the inspection port 111 close to the outlet 114 is greater than the distance between the volute fixing plate 140 and the outlet 114, so as to avoid the pipe joint 135 interfering with the removal of the volute fixing plate 140. Specifically, the distance between the volute fixing plate 140 and the outlet 114 is represented as L1, and the distance between the pipe joint 135 and the side of the inspection port 111 close to the outlet 114 is represented as L2, and L1 is smaller than L2. In this way, in the process of the volute fixing plate 140 driving the evaporator assembly 130 to be removed from the outlet 114, when the volute fixing plate 140 leaves the outlet 114, the pipe joint 135 has not moved to the position of abutting against the side wall of the inspection port 111 close to the outlet 114, that is, the pipe joint 135 will not interfere with the removal of the volute fixing plate 140, thereby improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.
[0054] Furthermore, the difference between L2 and L1 ranges from 5 mm to 15 mm. A reasonable difference can ensure that the structure of the duct machine 100 is compact and there is no waste of space while avoiding interference with the removal of the volute fixing plate 140. In this embodiment, the difference between L2 and L1 is 10 mm, which ensures that the volute fixing plate 140 has sufficient movement stroke, but it is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the difference between L2 and L1 can be 5 mm or 15 mm, and the difference between L2 and L1 is not specifically limited.
[0055] It is worth noting that the valve plate 160 is provided with a clearance groove 161, and the pipe joint 135 is arranged in the clearance groove 161. The clearance groove 161 can make way for the pipe joint 135, so that the pipe joint 135 can be extended from the shell 110. If the evaporator assembly 130 is to be disassembled for maintenance, the valve plate 160 needs to be removed from the side plate 117 to open the inspection port 111. At this time, the pipe joint 135 can move in the inspection port 111, and the valve plate 160 will not block the pipe joint 135.
[0056] The valve plate 160 includes a first valve plate 162 and a second valve plate 163. The first valve plate 162 and the second valve plate 163 are arranged side by side and are both connected to the side plate 117 by screws. The clearance groove 161 is opened on the first valve plate 162, and the pipe joint 135 extends out of the first valve plate 162. In this embodiment, the first valve plate 162 and the second valve plate 163 are both independently arranged, that is, the first valve plate 162 can be assembled with the side plate 117 or removed from the side plate 117, and the second valve plate 163 can be assembled with the side plate 117 or removed from the side plate 117, and the combination of the first valve plate 162 and the second valve plate 163 can completely close the inspection port 111.
[0057] Specifically, when only the water pump in the duct unit 100 needs to be inspected and maintained, the first valve plate 162 only needs to be removed from the side plate 117, while the second valve plate 163 remains unchanged, so as to open part of the inspection port 111, simplify the operation steps, and facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the water pump. When the evaporator assembly 130 needs to be removed for maintenance, the first valve plate 162 and the second valve plate 163 need to be removed from the side plate 117 to open the entire inspection port 111, so as to facilitate the movement of the pipe joint 135 in the inspection port 111, thereby avoiding the pipe joint 135 from interfering with the removal of the evaporator assembly 130.
[0058] The duct machine 100 described in the embodiment of the present invention, the shell 110 includes a top cover plate 115 and a bottom plate 116 arranged opposite to each other, the volute fixing plate 140 is arranged between the top cover plate 115 and the bottom plate 116 to separate the shell 110 into a first cavity 112 and a second cavity 113, the air outlet mechanism 120 is arranged in the first cavity 112, the evaporator assembly 130 is arranged in the second cavity 113, the shell 110 is provided with an outlet 114, the outlet 114 is connected to the first cavity 112, the top cover plate 115 is provided with a fixing portion 1152 in the first cavity 112, the fixing portion 1152 is provided with a first threaded hole 1151, the volute fixing plate 140 is provided with a connecting portion 142, the connecting portion 142 is provided with a first through hole 141, the first through hole 141 is used for screws to pass through, and the first threaded hole 1151 is used to cooperate with the screws to fix the relative positions of the volute fixing plate 140 and the top cover plate 115. Compared with the prior art, the duct machine 100 provided by the present invention adopts a fixing portion 1152 arranged in the first cavity 112 and an outlet 114 connected to the first cavity 112, so the evaporator assembly 130 can be disassembled and assembled conveniently and quickly, so as to improve maintenance efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, avoid roof damage, and enhance user experience.
[0059] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
