[0058] More specifically, the radar wave sensor 31 is provided with a limit pin 310 and two fixing ribs 320, the limit pin 310 is located in the middle of the top of the radar wave sensor 31, and the two fixing ribs 320 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the bottom end of the radar wave sensor 31 and extend toward the left and right sides; the panel 21 is provided with a pin hole 230 and two fixing spring buckles 240, the pin hole 230 is located above the two fixing spring buckles 240, and the pin hole 230 is located between the two fixing spring buckles 240, the pin hole 230 and the two fixing spring buckles 240 are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the pin hole 230, thereby improving the fixing stability of the panel 21 and the radar wave sensor 31 and the structural stability of the panel 21.

[0059] In another embodiment, an oblique rib is provided at the top of the fixing spring buckle 240, and the oblique rib extends obliquely from the top of the fixing spring buckle 240 toward the panel 21. When the fixing rib 320 is pressed, the fixing rib 320 moves toward the panel 21 along the oblique direction of the oblique rib. Therefore, the oblique rib has a guiding function to facilitate pressing the fixing rib 320 into the fixing spring buckle 240, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0060] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1a to 3 As shown, the panel 21 is further provided with two limiting ribs 250, which are symmetrically arranged between the latch hole 230 and the fixing spring buckle 240. When the radar wave sensor 31 and the panel 21 are assembled, the radar wave sensor 31 is limited between the two limiting ribs 250. Specifically, the panel 21 is further provided with two limiting ribs 250, which are located between the latch hole 230 and the fixing spring buckle 240, and the two limiting ribs 250 are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the latch hole 230. When the radar wave sensor 31 and the panel 21 are assembled, the two limiting ribs 250 have a limiting and fixing effect on the radar wave sensor 31. The radar wave sensor 31 is fixed between the two limiting ribs 250, thereby improving the fixation and accuracy of the radar wave sensor 31 to the panel 21 and improving assembly efficiency.

[0061] More specifically, the limiting rib 250 also has a guiding function, that is, oblique ribs are provided at the upper ends of the opposite sides of the limiting rib 250, and the oblique ribs are inclined toward the direction of the panel 21, so that when the radar wave sensor 31 is pressed to fit the panel 21, the radar wave sensor 31 is embedded in the position between the two limiting ribs 250 along the inclined direction of the oblique ribs of the limiting rib 250. The angle of the oblique rib is conducive to completing the assembly action, and plays a gathering role when assembling parts, so as to improve assembly efficiency.

[0062] In another embodiment, referring to Figures 1a to 3 As shown, the panel 21 is also provided with a terminal mounting seat 270, and the terminal mounting seat 270 is provided below the fixing spring buckle 240. The connecting wire terminals of the display module 120 and the radar wave sensor 31 are fixed on the terminal mounting seat 270 and connected to transmit signals.

[0063] In a specific embodiment, referring to Figures 1a to 2 As shown, the panel component 10 further includes foam pieces 41, which are fixed on both sides of the panel 21 and extend along the height direction of the panel 21. Specifically, the panel component 10 further includes multiple foam pieces 41, which are fixed on both sides of the panel 21. Since the texture on both sides of the panel 21 is very close to the air outlet of the air conditioner 1, the foam pieces 41 are fixed on both sides of the panel 21 and extend along the height direction of the panel 21. The foam pieces 41 play a role in heat preservation, preventing external moisture from contacting the panel 21, which is cooled by the cold wind, and thus forming condensation.

[0064] More specifically, refer to Figure 9 、 Figure 10As shown, the foam piece 41 includes an upper foam 420 and a lower foam 430, the upper foam 420 is located at the upper part of the panel 21, the lower foam 430 is located at the lower part of the panel 21, the upper foam 420 is located above the lower foam 430, and the bottom end of the upper foam 420 and the top end of the lower foam 430 are abutted, so that the panel 21 is provided with the foam piece 41 from top to bottom, thereby improving the heat preservation ability; at the same time, the upper foam 420 is provided with two limiting grooves 421, so The two limiting grooves 421 are spaced apart along the height direction of the upper foam 420, and the limiting grooves 421 are correspondingly arranged with the mounting portion 111 of the mounting box 110. The upper foam 420 is limited and fixed by the upper and lower mounting portions 111 on the same side of the mounting box 110 in cooperation with the two limiting grooves 421, thereby fixing the upper foam 420 to the panel 21, eliminating other redundant fixing structures, reducing the number of parts of the panel component 10, and improving production efficiency. At the same time, the lower foam 430 is directly clamped to the panel 21 through an interference fit with the panel 21, achieving a fixed connection between the lower foam 430 and the panel 21. The fixing method is simple and does not require other parts, thereby optimizing the panel component 10.

[0065] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 4 As shown, water holes 260 are further provided on both sides of the top of the panel 21, and the water holes 260 are arranged corresponding to the foam member 41. Specifically, the top of the panel 21 is further provided with the water holes 260, which penetrate the inner and outer sides of the panel 21, and are provided on both sides of the top of the panel 21. The water holes 260 are arranged corresponding to the foam member 41. When a user accidentally splashes water on the top of the air conditioner 1, the water flows into the interior of the air conditioner 1 through the water holes 260 and flows down along the foam member 41 from both sides of the panel 21, preventing water from gathering at the top of the air conditioner 1 and also preventing water from flowing to the display module 120 and other structural parts, affecting the use of the air conditioner 1. This solves the problem of users growing plants on the top of the air conditioner and watering them outside the flowerpot, causing water to flow to the exterior surface or even to the floor.

[0066] More specifically, refer to Figure 9 、 Figure 10As shown, the foam piece 41 is provided with a water guide rib 410 along its height direction, and the water guide rib 410 extends from the upper end to the lower end of the foam piece 41, that is, the upper foam 420 is provided with the water guide rib 410, and the lower foam 430 is also provided with the water guide rib 410. When water flows to the foam piece 41 through the water flow hole 260, the water flows along the water guide rib 410 to the bottom end of the air conditioner 1, thereby ensuring that the water will continue to flow downward along both sides of the panel 21, avoiding water flowing to the display module 120 and other live components, affecting their functions or even causing malfunctions.

[0067] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the top of the panel 21 is also provided with a wiring spring buckle 280, and the wiring spring buckle 280 is used to pre-fix the upper connecting wire of the display module 120. Since the panel component 10 is assembled from top to bottom during assembly, it is necessary to ensure that the upper connecting wire of the display module 120 is above the panel component 10 during assembly to prevent the connecting wire from being pressed during assembly. After the assembly of the panel component 10 is completed, the connecting wire is taken out and docked with the corresponding interface. Therefore, the wiring spring buckle 280 is set at the top of the panel 21 to improve the assembly efficiency and structural stability of the panel component 10; at the same time, two-directional guides are designed on the wiring spring buckle 280, which makes it convenient for users to clip the wire in and take out the wire, further improving the assembly efficiency.

[0068] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 4 As shown, mounting holes 290 are further provided on both sides of the top of the panel 21 . When assembling the panel component 10 and the rear component of the air conditioner 1 , screws are fixed to the rear component of the air conditioner 1 through the mounting holes 290 .

[0069] Reference Figure 11 、 Figure 12 As shown, this embodiment also provides an air conditioner 1, which includes a panel component 10. The panel component 10 can adopt any panel component 10 provided by the present invention. Since the previous specification has already made a detailed introduction to the specific structure and working principle of the panel component 10, for the sake of brevity of the specification, it will not be repeated here.

[0070] The air conditioner 1 in this embodiment adopts the panel component 10 provided by the present invention. The panel component 10 has fewer installation parts and the structure of the panel component 10 is optimized to increase the installation efficiency of the air conditioner 1, thereby improving the production efficiency of the air conditioner 1.
