Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular to an air conditioner end cover, an air conditioner middle frame assembly and an air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] As people's demands for quality of life become higher and higher, higher requirements are also placed on the cleaning and maintenance of air conditioners. Correspondingly, the components of the air duct system of the air conditioner have become the key areas for cleaning and maintenance. For the current split wall-mounted air conditioners, opening the front panel operation is often restricted by the middle frame skeleton, making it difficult to remove the corresponding components. At this time, if you start from the end cover, you can avoid the obstruction of the middle frame skeleton and move the least parts to remove the parts that need maintenance or replacement.
[0003] However, currently when the end cover is opened, its open position cannot be located, and it is easy to return to the closed state under its own gravity or external force, which affects the disassembly of parts. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to reduce the difficulty of disassembling parts by positioning the opening position of the end cover.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides an air conditioner end cover, comprising: a first end cover, provided with an opening; a second end cover, one end of which is rotatably connected to the first end cover to close or open the opening; and a locking structure connected between the second end cover and the first end cover to lock the second end cover in an open position relative to the first end cover.
[0006] The present invention provides a locking structure between the first end cover and the second end cover, so that when the second end cover is opened relative to the first end cover, the open position is locked to prevent the second end cover from covering the opening under its own gravity or external force, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling parts.
[0007] In one embodiment of the present invention, the locking structure includes: a hinged rod group, hinged between the first end cover and the second end cover; a locking portion, arranged on the hinged rod group; wherein, when the second end cover opens the opening, the locking portion locks the hinged rod group into a straight shape.
[0008] It can be understood that the hinged rod group can be composed of multiple hinged rods that are hinged to each other, and the hinged rods can move relative to each other as the second end cover is opened and closed; when the second end cover opens the opening, the locking portion locks the hinged rod group into an extended state, providing sufficient supporting force to lock the open position of the second end cover, thereby increasing the stability of the second end cover when it is opened and locked.
[0009] In one embodiment of the present invention, the hinged rod assembly includes: a first hinged rod, one end of which is hingedly connected to the first end cover; and a second hinged rod, which is hingedly connected between the first hinged rod and the second end cover. It can be understood that the hinged rod assembly formed by the second hinged rod and the first hinged rod being hingedly connected has a simple structure and reduces the space occupied by parts, and can achieve the second end cover being opened relative to the first end cover by rotating between the second hinged rod and the first hinged rod, thereby ensuring the smooth opening and closing of the second end cover.
[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, the hinge rod assembly further includes: a locking portion, which is provided at a hinge connection between the first hinge rod and the second hinge rod.
[0011] On the one hand, the locking portion limits and locks the rotation angle of the first hinge connecting rod relative to the second hinge connecting rod. When the second end cover is under its own weight or affected by external force, the first hinge connecting rod is not easy to rotate relative to the second hinge connecting rod, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of parts. On the other hand, when the second end cover is opened, the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod are rotated to an extended state and locked, which improves the stability of the second end cover in the locked state.
[0012] Preferably, when the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod are rotated to a straight line for locking, the first end cover, the second end cover, and the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod form a triangle, which further improves the stability of the second end cover in the locked state.
[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, the locking portion includes: a locking extension section, which is connected to the second hinged rod and partially overlaps with the first hinged rod; a protrusion, which is arranged at the position where the first hinged rod overlaps with the locking extension section; and a locking buckle, which is arranged on the locking extension section and matches the protrusion.
[0014] It can be understood that when the second end cover is opened and locked in the open position, the second hinge connecting rod rotates until the locking extension section overlaps with the first hinge connecting rod; the locking buckle provided on the locking extension section cooperates with the protrusion on the first hinge connecting rod to achieve locking, which greatly improves the connection strength between the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod in the locked state and increases the stability of the second end cover in the locked state.
[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, the protruding member is a protruding column protruding toward the locking extension section; and the locking buckle is a hook-shaped structure that can be buckled to the protruding column.
[0016] It can be understood that when the hook-shaped structure and the raised column are mutually locked, the contact area between the two is larger, which makes unlocking easier and the locking state more stable.
[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the locking buckle is a raised structure; when the second end cover opens the opening, the raised member is buckled with the raised structure, and the raised member is located between the hinge connection and the raised structure; or, the raised structure is located between the hinge connection and the raised member.
[0018] It can be understood that when the protrusion is buckled with the protrusion structure, the rotation position between the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod is locked. At this time, the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod are in a straight line, which improves the connection strength. At the same time, when the protrusion is buckled with the protrusion structure, the protrusion is located between the hinge connection and the protrusion structure; or, the protrusion structure is located between the hinge connection and the protrusion, so that when the second end cover is under its own gravity or external force, the abutting surface formed by the buckling of the protrusion and the protrusion structure offsets the force, thereby avoiding the second end cover from rotating between the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod under its own gravity or external force, thereby covering the second end cover and affecting the disassembly and assembly of parts.
[0019] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the second end cover closes the opening, the hinged rod assembly is contracted between the first end cover and the second end cover.
[0020] It can be understood that the hinged rod assembly is retractably arranged between the first end cover and the second end cover, which reduces the occupied space, makes the overall structure of the device more compact, and improves the overall visual effect.
[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the first end cover and the second end cover is provided with a receiving cavity, and when the second end cover closes the opening, the hinge rod assembly is received in the receiving cavity.
[0022] It can be understood that at least one of the first end cover and the second end cover is provided with a accommodating cavity, so that the hinged rod group can be stored in the accommodating cavity without changing the overall volume when the second end cover covers the first end cover, thereby improving the overall space utilization; at the same time, it also increases the hinged rod group during the opening process, providing sufficient expansion space for the hinged rod group.
[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first end cover is provided with a first accommodating cavity, and the second end cover is provided with a second accommodating cavity; the hinged rod group includes a first hinged rod, one end of which is hingedly connected to the first end cover; a second hinged rod is hingedly connected between the first hinged rod and the second end cover; when the second end cover closes the opening, the first hinged rod is received in the first accommodating cavity, and the second hinged rod is received in the second accommodating cavity.
[0024] It can be understood that by accommodating the first hinge connecting rod and the second hinge connecting rod in the first accommodating cavity and the second accommodating cavity respectively, it is convenient for the second end cover to cover the first end cover; at the same time, the second end cover covers the first end cover more tightly.
[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, a rotating shaft hook is provided at one end of the second end cover; a rotating space is provided at a corresponding position of the first end cover, and a rotating shaft and a connecting opening are provided in the rotating space; the rotating shaft hook extends into the rotating space through the connecting opening and is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft.
[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, the other end of the second end cover opposite to the one end is provided with a positioning column and a snap-on plug end; correspondingly, the first end cover is provided with a positioning hole matching the positioning column, and a snap-on connecting end corresponding to the snap-on plug end.
[0027] It can be understood that the positioning column and the snap-on plug end, as well as the matching positioning holes and snap-on connecting ends are provided to facilitate the plugging of the snap-on plug end and the snap-on connecting end when the second end cover covers the first end cover, thereby improving the sealing when covering; the matching setting of the positioning column and the positioning hole improves the left and right shaking of the second end cover relative to the first end cover when the second end cover covers the first end cover.
[0028] The present invention also provides an air conditioner middle frame assembly, comprising: a middle frame body, an end of which is provided with an opening; a second end cover, one end of which is rotatably connected to the middle frame body to close or open the opening; and a locking structure connected between the second end cover and the middle frame body to lock the second end cover in an open position relative to the middle frame body.
[0029] It can be understood that the connection and locking structure between the second end cover and the middle frame body is provided, which reduces the first end cover component and correspondingly reduces the overall volume and weight of the middle frame assembly. At the same time, the open position of the second end cover can be locked to prevent the second end cover from closing the opening under its own gravity or external force, thereby reducing the impact on the disassembly process of parts.
[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, the openings are respectively provided at two opposite ends of the middle frame body, and correspondingly, each of the openings is respectively provided with a corresponding second end cover and a locking structure.
[0031] Understandably, it is convenient to disassemble the parts to be cleaned in the middle frame and improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, it also includes: a water outlet, which is arranged at the end of the middle frame body and is located on the side of the locking structure away from the top surface of the middle frame body; a drainage pipe joint, which is arranged on the second end cover and cooperates with the water outlet.
[0033] It can be understood that when the second cover is opened, the water outlet is separated from the drain pipe joint, the drain pipe joint moves with the second cover, and the locking structure positions the second cover in the open position; at the same time, when the second cover is closed, the drain pipe joint automatically snaps into the water outlet, avoiding manual installation of the drain pipe joint on the snap-on water outlet, thereby improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.
[0034] The present invention further provides an air conditioner, comprising: the air conditioner end cover as described above, or the air conditioner middle frame assembly as described above.
[0035] It can be understood that when the second end cover is opened, the open position can be locked to prevent the second end cover from closing the opening under its own gravity or external force, thereby reducing the impact on the disassembly process of parts.
[0036] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0037] 1) The second end cover can be locked at the open position to improve the efficiency of component disassembly and assembly;
[0038] 2) The locking structure can provide sufficient supporting force to lock the open position of the second end cover, thereby increasing the stability of the second end cover when it is opened and locked;
[0039] 3) The air conditioner end cover has a built-in accommodation space for accommodating the locking structure, making the overall structure more compact and improving the overall visual effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0055] 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.
[0056] Embodiment 1:
[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an air conditioner end cover 10 , and the air conditioner end cover 10 includes: a first end cover 20 , a second end cover 30 and a locking structure 40 .
[0058] Specifically, the first end cover 20 is provided with an opening 209; one end of the second end cover 30 is rotatably connected to the first end cover 20 to close or open the opening 209; a locking structure 40 is connected between the second end cover 30 and the first end cover 20; when the second end cover 30 is opened relative to the first end cover 20, the locking structure 40 locks the open position of the second end cover 30 relative to the first end cover 20 to prevent the second end cover 30 from covering the first end cover 20 under its own gravity or external force, thereby reducing the impact on the disassembly process of parts.
[0059] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, the locking structure 40 includes a hinged rod assembly 41 and a locking portion 42 .
[0060] Specifically, the hinged rod group 41 can be rotated to achieve the folding and extension of the hinged rod group 41. One end of the hinged rod group 41 is hinged to the second end cover 30, and the other end is hinged to the first end cover 20; it is convenient for the hinged rod group 41 to be extended and folded as the second end cover 30 is opened or closed relative to the first end cover 20; the locking portion 42 is provided on the hinged rod group 41, which is used to lock the extended state of the hinged rod group 41; it can be understood that when the second end cover 30 opens the opening 209, the locked hinged rod group 41 is extended into a straight line. At this time, the locking portion 42 locks the hinged rod group 41 into a straight line to prevent the hinged rod group 41 from changing from an extended state to a folded state under its own gravity or external force at the second end cover 30.
[0061] Furthermore, the hinge rod assembly 41 includes a first hinge rod 411 and a second hinge rod 412 .
[0062] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, one end of the first hinge connecting rod 411 is hinged to the first end cover 20; the second hinge connecting rod 412 is hinged between the first hinge connecting rod 411 and the second end cover 30; the first hinge connecting rod 411 and the second hinge connecting rod 412 are hinged to each other, so that the first hinge connecting rod 411 and the second hinge connecting rod 412 can rotate relative to each other; the locking portion 42 is arranged at the hinge connection between the first hinge connecting rod 411 and the second hinge connecting rod 412; when the second end cover 30 is opened, driving the second hinge connecting rod 412 to rotate relative to the first hinge connecting rod 411, so that the second hinge connecting rod 412 and the first hinge connecting rod 411 are in a straight line, the locking portion 42 limits the second hinge connecting rod 412 to continue to rotate relative to the first hinge connecting rod 411, and locks the straight line state formed between the second hinge connecting rod 412 and the first hinge connecting rod 411.
[0063] Furthermore, the locking portion 42 includes a locking extension section 4121 , a protruding piece 4111 and a locking buckle 4122 .
[0064] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a locking extension section 4121 is extended from one end of the second hinge connecting rod 412 hinged to the first hinge connecting rod 411, and a locking buckle 4122 is also provided on the locking extension section 4121; when the second end cover 30 is opened, the locking extension section 4121 partially overlaps with the first hinge connecting rod 411; Figure 5 As shown, a protrusion 4111 is provided on the first hinge connecting rod 411, and the protrusion 4111 is located at a position where the first hinge connecting rod 411 overlaps with the locking extension section 4121; the protrusion 4111 matches the locking buckle 4122; when the second end cover 30 is opened and the first hinge connecting rod 411 rotates to overlap with the locking extension section 4121, the protrusion 4111 and the locking buckle 4122 cooperate with each other to achieve locking.
[0065] Of course, a locking extension section 4121 may be provided on the first hinge connecting rod 411 , a locking buckle 4122 may be provided on the locking extension section 4121 , and a protrusion 4111 matching the locking buckle 4122 may be provided on the second hinge connecting rod 412 , which will not be described in detail here.
[0066] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the protruding member 4111 is a protruding column protruding toward the locking extension section 4121, and the locking buckle 4122 is a hook-shaped structure that can be buckled to the protruding column. When the hook-shaped structure and the protruding column are mutually locked, the contact area between the two is larger, and while the unlocking is convenient, the locking state is more stable.
[0067] Embodiment 2:
[0068] Further, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the locking buckle 4122 can also be a protruding structure facing the first hinge connecting rod 411; and a gap 413 is provided between the first hinge connecting rod 411 and the second hinge connecting rod 412, and the gap 413 is greater than or equal to the protruding height of the protruding structure and the protruding member 4111; when the second end cover 30 opens the opening 209, the protruding member 4111 is buckled with the protruding structure, and at least one abutting surface is perpendicular to the first hinge connecting rod 411 or the second hinge connecting rod 412.
[0069] Further, such as Figure 8 As shown, the locking buckle 4122 is the end face of the locking extension end close to the protruding piece 4111. When the second end cover 30 is opened and the second hinge connecting rod 412 and the first hinge connecting rod 411 are stretched into a straight line, the end face is locked with the surface of the protruding structure.
[0070] For example, the end surface may also be a curved surface, and the protrusion 4111 may also be a protrusion with different structures, which will not be described in detail here.
[0071] Preferably, when the locking buckle 4122 and the protruding member 4111 are engaged and fastened, at least one of the locking buckle 4122 and the protruding member 4111 is deformed to achieve an interference fit.
[0072] Further, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the second end cover 30 is provided with a second accommodating cavity 301; Fig.10 As shown, the first end cover 20 is provided with a first accommodating cavity 201; Fig.11 As shown, when the second end cover 30 closes the opening 209, the first accommodating cavity 201 and the second accommodating cavity 301 cooperate to form an accommodating space 50 for accommodating the hinged rod assembly 41. The accommodating space 50 formed by the cooperation of the first accommodating cavity 201 and the second accommodating cavity 301 facilitates the accommodating of the hinged rod assembly 41 therein, and at the same time, increases the hinged rod assembly 41 during the opening process to provide sufficient extension space.
[0073] For example, the second end cover 30 may be provided with a second accommodating cavity 301 or the first end cover 20 may be provided with a first accommodating cavity 201. When the second end cover 30 covers the first end cover 20, the first accommodating cavity 201 or the second accommodating cavity 301 forms an accommodating space 50 for accommodating the hinged rod group 41, which will not be described in detail here.
[0074] Furthermore, when the hinge rod assembly 41 is received in the receiving space 50, the first hinge rod 411 is received in the first receiving cavity 201, and the second hinge rod 412 is received in the second receiving cavity 301. By receiving the first hinge rod 411 and the second hinge rod 412 in the first receiving cavity 201 and the second receiving cavity 301, respectively, the second end cover 30 is convenient to cover the first end cover 20; at the same time, the second end cover 30 covers the first end cover 20 more tightly.
[0075] Further, such as Fig. 9 As shown, one end of the second end cover 30 is provided with a rotating shaft hook 302; Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, a rotation space 203 is provided at a corresponding position of the first end cover 20 , and a rotation shaft 202 and a connecting opening 204 are provided in the rotation space 203 .
[0076] Specifically, the rotating shaft 202 is arranged on the side of the first end cover 20 away from the second end cover 30 and is located above the connecting opening 204; the rotating shaft hook 302 passes through the connecting opening 204 and extends into the rotating space 203, and is rotatably connected with the rotating shaft 202. The rotating shaft 202 is arranged on the side of the first end cover 20 away from the second end cover 30, so that when the first end cover 20 is rotatably connected with the second end cover 30, the rotating shaft 202 and the rotating shaft hook 302 are hidden, the occupied space is reduced, and the second end cover 30 is convenient for covering the first end cover 20.
[0077] Further, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the second end cover 30 is provided with a positioning column 303 and a snap-on plug end 304; correspondingly, the first end cover 20 is provided with a positioning hole (not shown in the figure) matching the positioning column 303, and a snap-on connecting end (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the snap-on plug end 304.
[0078] Specifically, the positioning column 303 and the snap-on plug end 304 are located on the side of the second end cover 30 close to the first end cover 20, and are arranged at both ends of the second end cover 30 opposite to the shaft hook 302; the second end cover 30 is also provided with a switch key, which is located on the side of the snap-on plug end 304 away from the shaft hook 302; the switch key is provided with a buckling column on the side of the snap-on plug end 304, and the buckling column is buckled between the switch key and the snap-on plug end 304; the switch key and the snap-on plug end 304 can be deformed under the action of external force.
[0079] Specific working method: when the second end cover 30 needs to be closed, the second end cover 30 is pressed in the direction of covering the first end cover 20, so that the snap-on plug end 304 is snapped with the snap-on connecting end under the action of external force; when the second end cover 30 needs to be opened, it is only necessary to press the switch key so that the buckle column applies force to the snap-on plug end 304 to cause deformation, so that the snap-on plug end 304 is separated from the snap-on connecting end under the action of external force, so that the second end cover 30 is separated relative to the first end cover 20.
[0080] Embodiment 4:
[0081] like Fig.13 As shown, this embodiment further provides an air conditioner middle frame assembly 100 , including: a middle frame body 80 , a second end cover 30 and a locking structure 40 .
[0082] Specifically, an opening 209 is provided at the end of the middle frame body 80, and one end of the second end cover 30 is rotatably connected to the end; the opening 209 is closed by opening and closing the second end cover 30; a locking structure 40 is also connected between the second end cover 30 and the middle frame body 80, and when the second end cover 30 is opened relative to the middle frame body 80, the locking structure 40 is used to lock the second end cover 30 in the open position.
[0083] Furthermore, openings 209 are respectively provided at two opposite ends of the middle frame body 80 , and correspondingly, each opening 209 is respectively provided with a corresponding second end cover 30 and a locking structure 40 .
[0084] Furthermore, the air conditioner middle frame assembly 100 also includes: a water outlet 70 and a drain pipe joint 60 .
[0085] Specifically, Fig.13As shown, the water outlet 70 is arranged at the end and is located on the side of the locking structure 40 away from the top surface of the middle frame body 80; the drain pipe joint 60 is arranged on the second end cover 30 and cooperates with the water outlet 70. For example, the drain pipe joint 60 is disassembled and buckled on the side of the second end cover 30 close to the end; when the second end cover 30 is covered on the end, the water outlet 70 is assembled with the drain pipe joint 60; when the second end cover 30 is opened, the water outlet 70 is separated from the drain pipe joint 60, and the drain pipe joint 60 moves with the second end cover 30, and the locking structure 40 locates the second end cover 30 in the open position; at the same time, when the second end cover 30 is covered, the drain pipe joint 60 automatically buckles the water outlet 70, avoiding the action of installing the drain pipe joint 60 to the water outlet 70 separately, thereby improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.
[0086] Embodiment 5:
