DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] 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.
[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The embodiment of the present invention provides a cabinet air conditioner 100 for controlling indoor temperature. It can simplify the disassembly and assembly process of the air duct 120, improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency, facilitate cleaning or maintenance, and improve the limiting effect of the air duct 120, preventing the air duct 120 from moving and avoiding collision damage.
[0026] The cabinet air conditioner 100 includes a display panel 110, an air duct 120, an air outlet frame 130, a front panel 140, a crossflow fan 150 and an air guide blade 160. The front panel 140 is provided with an air outlet cavity 141, the display panel 110, the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130 are all arranged in the air outlet cavity 141, the display panel 110 is arranged above the air outlet frame 130, the display panel 110 is used to display the operating parameters of the cabinet air conditioner 100, and the air outlet frame 130 is arranged outside the air duct 120 and communicated with the air duct 120. The crossflow fan 150 is installed in the air duct 120, and the crossflow fan 150 is used to drive the air flow to form an air outlet airflow, thereby realizing the cooling or heating function of the cabinet air conditioner 100. The air guide blade 160 is installed in the air outlet frame 130, and is used to guide the outlet air flow to adjust the air outlet direction of the cabinet air conditioner 100. The outlet air flow generated by the cross flow fan 150 can be blown out to the outside through the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130 in sequence. In this process, the air guide blade 160 can guide the direction of the outlet air flow.
[0027] It should be noted that the display panel 110 is provided with a first locking structure 111, and the air duct 120 is provided with a second locking structure 121. The first locking structure 111 cooperates with the second locking structure 121 to fix the relative position of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120 to prevent the display panel 110 from being displaced relative to the air duct 120. The display panel 110 can limit the position of the air duct 120 through the cooperation of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 to prevent the air duct 120 from moving and avoid the air duct 120 from colliding with other parts in the cabinet air conditioner 100. The first locking structure 111 can be released from the cooperation with the second locking structure 121 to release the connection between the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. At this time, the display panel 110 and the air duct 120 can move relative to each other, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. The disassembly and assembly process is simple and the disassembly and assembly efficiency is high.
[0028] In this embodiment, the display panel 110 is slidably connected to the front panel 140. When the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 are released from the engagement, the display panel 110 can slide in a direction away from the air duct 120 to make way for the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130, so as to facilitate the removal of the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130 from the air outlet cavity 141 for cleaning or maintenance. However, this is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the display panel 110 can be hinged to the front panel 140 at one end, and the other end is connected to the air duct 120 through the engagement of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121. The display panel 110 can also be snap-connected to the front panel 140 at one end, and the other end is connected to the air duct 120 through the engagement of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121. The connection method between the display panel 110 and the front panel 140 is not specifically limited.
[0029] In this embodiment, the number of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 are both two, and the two first locking structures 111 are relatively arranged on both sides of the display panel 110, and each first locking structure 111 cooperates with a second locking structure 121 to improve the stability of the connection between the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. However, this is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the number of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 can be three, or four, and the number of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 is not specifically limited.
[0030] In this embodiment, the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 are engaged with each other to realize a detachable connection between the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. However, this is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first locking structure 111 can be hooked with the second locking structure 121, or the first locking structure 111 can be magnetically connected with the second locking structure 121. The matching method of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 is not specifically limited.
[0031] Specifically, the first locking structure 111 is a rotating lock 112, and the second locking structure 121 is a spring buckle 122. The rotating lock 112 can rotate relative to the display panel 110 and cooperate with the spring buckle 122 to fix the relative position of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120, and prevent the air duct 120 from being displaced relative to the display panel 110. The rotating lock 112 can also be reversed relative to the display panel 110 and disengaged from the spring buckle 122 to release the connection between the display panel 110 and the air duct 120, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the air duct 120 and the display panel 110.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the rotating lock 112 includes a rotating portion 113, a connecting portion 114 and a locking portion 115. The rotating portion 113 is fixedly connected to the locking portion 115 through the connecting portion 114. In this embodiment, the rotating portion 113, the connecting portion 114 and the locking portion 115 are integrally formed to improve the connection strength. The display panel 110 is provided with a fixed shaft 117, and the rotating portion 113 is sleeved outside the fixed shaft 117 and can rotate relative to the fixed shaft 117 to synchronously drive the connecting portion 114 and the locking portion 115 to rotate relative to the fixed shaft 117. The locking portion 115 cooperates with the spring buckle 122 to fix the relative position of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120 to prevent the air duct 120 from being displaced relative to the display panel 110.
[0033] In this embodiment, the locking portion 115 is provided with a slot 116, and the spring buckle 122 is provided with a boss 123, which is engaged with the slot 116 to fix the relative position of the locking portion 115 and the spring buckle 122, thereby fixing the relative position of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. However, this is not limited to this, and in other embodiments, the locking portion 115 is provided with a boss, and the spring buckle 122 is provided with a groove, and the boss is engaged with the groove, which can also fix the relative position of the locking portion 115 and the spring buckle 122.
[0034] It is worth noting that the air duct 120 is provided with a receiving groove 124, and the spring buckle 122 is arranged in the receiving groove 124. The rotating lock buckle 112 can extend into the receiving groove 124 and cooperate with the spring buckle 122. The receiving groove 124 can limit the position of the rotating lock buckle 112 to ensure the stability of the cooperation between the rotating lock buckle 112 and the spring buckle 122, and prevent the rotating lock buckle 112 from accidentally detaching from the spring buckle 122. Specifically, in the process of cooperation between the rotating lock buckle 112 and the spring buckle 122, the rotating lock buckle 112 is first rotated so that the locking portion 115 of the rotating lock buckle 112 extends into the accommodating groove 124. At this time, the locking portion 115 is abutted against the boss 123; then the rotating lock buckle 112 is continued to be rotated, and the locking portion 115 pushes the spring buckle 122 to elastically deform through the boss 123 until the position of the boss 123 corresponds to the position of the slot 116. At this time, the spring buckle 122 rebounds and resets under the action of its own elastic force, so as to drive the boss 123 to be clamped with the slot 116, thereby completing the clamping cooperation between the rotating lock buckle 112 and the spring buckle 122.
[0035] Furthermore, the snap button 122 is U-shaped, and the snap button 122 includes a first linkage part 125, a bending part 126, and a second linkage part 127. The first linkage part 125 is fixedly connected to the second linkage part 127 through the bending part 126. In this embodiment, the first linkage part 125, the bending part 126, and the second linkage part 127 are integrally formed to improve the connection strength. The end of the first linkage part 125 away from the bending part 126 is fixedly connected to the air duct 120, and the boss 123 is arranged at the end of the second linkage part 127 away from the bending part 126. The second linkage part 127 is engaged with the slot 116 of the locking part 115 through the boss 123. In the process of the rotation lock 112 and the snap button 122, the engagement function of the boss 123 and the slot 116 is mainly achieved through the elastic deformation of the bending part 126, and the engagement process is stable and reliable, and the engagement effect is good.
[0036] It should be noted that the air outlet frame 130 is provided with a clearance groove 131, and the position of the clearance groove 131 corresponds to the position of the receiving groove 124. The rotating lock buckle 112 can pass through the clearance groove 131 and the receiving groove 124 in sequence, and cooperate with the spring buckle 122 to clamp the air outlet frame 130 between the rotating lock buckle 112 and the air duct 120, thereby limiting the position of the air outlet frame 130, preventing the air outlet frame 130 from moving, and avoiding the air outlet frame 130 from colliding with other components in the cabinet air conditioner 100.
[0037] In this embodiment, the cooperation of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 can simultaneously limit the positions of the three components of the display panel 110, the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130. The release of the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure 121 can simultaneously unlock the three components of the display panel 110, the air duct 120 and the air outlet frame 130. The operation is simple and convenient, and the cabinet air conditioner 100 is easy to disassemble and clean.
[0038] The air outlet frame 130 includes a frame 132 and a supporting portion 133. A clearance groove 131 is provided on the frame 132, and the supporting portion 133 is arranged in the clearance groove 131 and is fixedly connected to the frame 132. In this embodiment, the frame 132 and the supporting portion 133 are integrally formed to improve the connection strength. The top of the frame 132 is abutted against the bottom of the display panel 110, and the frame 132 can limit the lower limit position of the display panel 110 to prevent the display panel 110 from sliding downward. The supporting portion 133 is clamped between the rotating lock buckle 112 and the air duct 120, and the rotating lock buckle 112 and the air duct 120 work together to limit the relative position of the supporting portion 133, thereby limiting the relative position of the air outlet frame 130 and preventing the air outlet frame 130 from moving.
[0039] Specifically, when the rotating lock 112 cooperates with the spring buckle 122, the supporting portion 133 is clamped between the connecting portion 114 and the air duct 120, and the top surface of the supporting portion 133 is abutted against the locking portion 115. The locking portion 115 can limit the supporting portion 133 to define the upper limit position of the supporting portion 133, thereby preventing the supporting portion 133 from moving upward, thereby preventing the air outlet frame 130 from moving upward, and further improving the limiting effect on the air outlet frame 130.
[0040] In this embodiment, the abutting portion 133 is recessed in the surface of the frame 132, that is, the abutting portion 133 is protruded toward the direction close to the air duct 120. The abutting portion 133 and the frame 132 are combined to form a receiving cavity 134, and the receiving cavity 134 is used to receive the rotating lock buckle 112 when the rotating lock buckle 112 cooperates with the spring buckle 122, so as to prevent the rotating lock buckle 112 from protruding from the surface of the frame 132, thereby improving the aesthetics.
[0041] In the cabinet air conditioner 100 described in the embodiment of the present invention, the display panel 110 is provided with a first locking structure 111, and the air duct 120 is provided with a second locking structure 121, and the first locking structure 111 cooperates with the second locking structure 121 to fix the relative position of the display panel 110 and the air duct 120. Compared with the prior art, the cabinet air conditioner 100 provided by the present invention adopts the first locking structure 111 provided on the display panel 110 and the second locking structure 121 provided on the air duct 120, so it can simplify the disassembly and assembly process of the air duct 120, improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency, facilitate cleaning or maintenance, and improve the limiting effect of the air duct 120, so as to prevent the air duct 120 from moving and avoiding collision damage.
[0042] 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.
