Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0041] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to realize the different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application. In addition, the present application can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.
[0042] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used herein to describe the relative positional relationship or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figure, such as "inside", "outside", "inner side", "outer side", "below", "below", "above", "above", "front", "back", etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure.

[0043] In order to solve the technical problem in the prior art that an outdoor unit with a spliced structure on the top is prone to water entering the interior of the outdoor unit through the splicing gap and thus causing a safety accident, the present application provides an outdoor unit and an air conditioner, which can receive the water entering the interior of the outdoor unit from the splicing gap on the top of the outdoor unit and divert and discharge the water, thereby avoiding a short circuit in the outdoor unit caused by the water entering, and improving the reliability of the operation of the outdoor unit and the air conditioner using the above-mentioned outdoor unit.
[0044] The embodiment of the present application provides an outdoor unit, which adopts a top splicing structure, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the outdoor unit includes a shell structure and a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, and an outdoor fan, etc., which are arranged in the shell structure. The shell structure mainly includes a front panel, a top cover 30, and a drainage assembly. Among them, the top edge of the front panel and the side edge of the top cover 30 close to the front panel cooperate with each other to form a top splicing structure of the outdoor unit. A splicing gap is formed between the side edge of the top cover 30 adjacent to the front panel and the top edge of the top cover 30. The drainage assembly corresponds to the splicing gap and is arranged directly below the splicing gap, so that when condensed water in rainy and snowy weather or in the air enters the interior of the outdoor unit from the splicing gap, it will fall into the drainage assembly below the splicing gap. The drainage assembly collects, guides, and discharges the incoming water, effectively preventing the incoming water in the top splicing gap from entering the interior of the outdoor unit and causing a short circuit accident, thereby improving the reliability of the outdoor unit and the air conditioner using the outdoor unit.
[0045] The shell structure of the outdoor unit also includes a back plate 60, side panels connected to the back plate 60 and the front panel on both sides, and a chassis located at the bottom. Since the improvement of the present application mainly involves the connection structure between the front panel and the cover plate, the other parts of the shell structure are not described in detail. Generally speaking, the top splicing structure only forms a splicing gap between the top cover 30 and the front panel, and the top cover 30 is integrally buckled above the back plate 60 and the side panels; if the top cover 30 and the back plate 60 or the side panels form a splicing gap at the top of the outdoor unit, a drainage assembly can also be provided below the splicing gap.
[0046] In a specific embodiment provided in this application, further reference is made to Figures 4 to 7 The front panel includes a front side panel 10 and an outer cover 20. The front side panel 10 is fixedly connected to the side panel on one side of the outdoor unit housing, and the outer cover 20 is detachably connected to the front side panel 10 and the side panel on the other side of the outdoor unit housing. The outer cover 20 is provided with an exhaust port for exhausting air from the outdoor fan. By setting the front panel as a structure in which the front side panel 10 and the outer cover 20 cooperate and the outer cover 20 is detachable, it is convenient to remove the outer cover 20 to inspect and maintain the outdoor unit.
[0047] Corresponding to the structure of the front side plate 10 and the outer cover 20, the splicing gap includes a first gap 32 formed between the top edge of the outer cover 20 and the side edge of the top cover 30, and a second gap 33 formed between the top edge of the front side plate 10 and the side edge of the top cover 30. The drainage assembly includes an upper water receiving tray 40 and a lower water receiving tray 50, the upper water receiving tray 40 is arranged corresponding to the first gap 32, the lower water receiving tray 50 is arranged below the upper water receiving tray 40 and corresponds to the first gap 32 and the second gap 33, and the lower water receiving tray 50 is used to receive water from the second gap 33 and drain water from the upper water receiving tray 40.
[0048] The length of the upper water receiving tray 40 is approximately equal to the length of the first gap 32, preferably greater than or equal to the length of the first gap 32, and the width of the upper water receiving tray 40 is greater than the width of the first gap 32, so as to fully receive the water entering the interior of the outdoor unit from the first gap 32. The lower water receiving tray 50 is arranged corresponding to the first gap 32 and the second gap 33, that is, the length of the lower water receiving tray 50 is greater than the length of the upper water receiving tray 40, so that the lower water receiving tray 50 can not only receive the water entering the second gap 33, but also receive the water discharged from the upper water receiving tray 40. The width of the lower water receiving tray 50 is greater than the width of the second gap 33, and is usually greater than the width of the upper water receiving tray 40. The lower water receiving tray 50 is provided with a first drain port 53, so that the water entering is collected and diverted and then discharged from the first drain port 53 according to a set path.
[0049] The first drain outlet 53 can extend outside the shell of the outdoor unit. If both ends of the lower water receiving tray 50 extend to the side panels, the first drain outlet 53 can be opened at the end of the lower water receiving tray 50 and extend outside the side panels so as to discharge the incoming water directly outside the shell of the outdoor unit.
[0050] The first drain port 53 can also be connected to a guide structure so that the incoming water is discharged to the bottom plate through the guide structure, and finally discharged from the drainage structure of the bottom plate to the outside of the housing of the outdoor unit. The structure and drainage path of the upper water receiving tray 40 and the lower water receiving tray 50 will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0051] In some embodiments, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the upper water receiving tray 40 is formed integrally with the outer cover 20. The upper water receiving tray 40 is connected to the top edge of the outer cover 20 and extends in a direction away from the outer cover 20, that is, toward the back plate 60, so that the first gap 32 formed by the top cover 30 and the outer cover 20 is located directly above the upper water receiving tray 40. The upper water receiving tray 40 adopts a long strip groove structure, and the upper water receiving tray 40 includes a first side surface, a bottom plate and a second side surface connected in sequence, and the first side surface, the bottom plate and the second side surface form an upper guide groove.
[0052] The first side is fixedly connected to the outer cover 20, which effectively prevents water leakage from between the outer cover 20 and the upper water receiving tray 40. The first side extends generally vertically downward, and the second side is arranged opposite to the first side. The second side adopts a structure that is inclined from bottom to top at a first preset angle (such as 45°) in the direction away from the outer cover 20, so that the width of the slot formed by the upper water receiving tray 40 is greater than the width of the slot bottom. On the one hand, it can increase the water receiving capacity, and on the other hand, it can increase the water receiving width, which is convenient for water to enter and collect the first gap 32. Figure 7 As shown, the bottom plate of the upper water receiving tray 40 can be provided with a certain concave curvature, thereby increasing the water receiving capacity to a certain extent.
[0053] refer to Figures 3 to 6 , one end of the upper water receiving pan 40 close to the front side plate 10 or the second gap 33 is opened to form a second drain port 42, and the incoming water received by the upper water receiving pan 40 can be discharged into the lower water receiving pan 50 through the second drain port 42 after being collected. In addition, a third drain port 43 can be provided at one end of the upper water receiving pan 40 away from the front side plate 10, so that the incoming water received by the upper water receiving pan 40 can be collected and discharged into the lower water receiving pan 50 through the third drain port 43. By respectively providing the second drain port 42 and the third drain port 43 at both ends of the length direction of the upper water receiving pan 40, it is convenient for the incoming water entering the outdoor unit from the first gap 32 to fall into the upper water receiving pan 40, and then be collected in the upper water receiving pan 40 and discharged into the lower water receiving pan 50 along the second drain port 42 and the third drain port 43 at both ends of the upper water receiving pan 40, thereby improving the drainage efficiency.
[0054] Furthermore, the outdoor unit is provided with a motor bracket 31, which is fixedly connected to the back plate 60 and is used to install and fix the driving motor of the outdoor fan. The middle section of the upper water receiving tray 40 is convexly provided in the direction away from the outer cover 20 to form a water storage portion 41, and the water storage portion 41 is overlapped and fixed on the top of the motor bracket 31, so that the upper water receiving tray 40 can be supported and fixed by the motor bracket 31 to prevent the upper water receiving tray 40 from sinking after receiving water. The side of the water storage portion 41 away from the outer cover 20, that is, toward the back plate 60, also adopts a structure that is inclined from bottom to top in the direction away from the outer cover 20 at a first preset angle (such as 45°) to further increase the water receiving capacity and local water receiving width of the upper water receiving tray 40.
[0055] The lower water receiving tray 50 is fixed on the motor bracket 31 and is located below the upper water receiving tray 40. The width of the lower water receiving tray 50 is greater than the width of the upper water receiving tray 40. Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the lower water receiving tray 50 can be configured to include a lower guide groove 52 and a water receiving groove 51, the lower guide groove 52 and the water receiving groove 51 are arranged side by side, and the bottom plate of the lower guide groove 52 is connected to the bottom plate of the water receiving groove 51 and is concave relative to the bottom plate of the water receiving groove 51. Among them, the water receiving groove 51 is intermittently arranged at both ends of the length direction of the lower water receiving tray 50, and the water receiving groove 51 is used to communicate with the second drain port 42 and the third drain port 43 at both ends of the upper water receiving tray 40. The lower guide groove 52 is located on the side close to the outer cover 20, and the water receiving groove 51 is located on the side away from the outer cover 20.
[0056] The side of the water receiving groove 51 overlaps the outer side of the second side of the upper water receiving tray 40 and is sealed with the second side of the upper water receiving tray 40. The bottom plate of the water receiving groove 51 overlaps below the bottom plate end of the upper water receiving tray 40 and is sealed with the bottom plate of the upper water receiving tray 40. The bottom plate of the lower guide groove 52 is sealed with the bottom of the upper water receiving tray 40 to avoid water leakage. The side of the lower guide groove 52 is attached to the outer side of the first side of the upper water receiving tray 40. That is, the side of the lower water receiving tray 50 is respectively located on the outer side of the two side surfaces of the upper water receiving tray 40, so that the width of the lower water receiving tray 50 is greater than that of the upper water receiving tray 40, so as to better receive the drainage of the upper water receiving tray 40 and avoid water leakage.
[0057] The bottom plate of the lower guide groove 52 extends downwardly at a second preset angle (e.g., 10°) from the direction away from the outer cover 20 to the direction close to the outer cover 20, that is, from the water receiving groove 51 to the lower guide groove 52. The first drain port 53 is provided on the side of the lower water receiving tray 50 or the lower guide groove 52 facing the outer cover 20, and can be specifically provided at the connection transition between the bottom plate and the side of the lower guide groove 52, so that the water discharged into the lower guide groove 52 is collected along the inclined bottom plate to the side of the bottom plate close to the outer cover 20, and is discharged from the first drain port 53 on this side.
[0058] In this way, external water enters the upper water receiving tray 40 from the first gap 32 and the water is gathered and then flows to the second drain port 42 and the third drain port 43 at both ends of the upper water receiving tray 40, and flows into the water receiving groove 51 of the lower water receiving tray 50 through the second drain port 42 and the third drain port 43. The drainage received by the water receiving groove 51 flows to the lower guide groove 52. The external water falls directly into the lower water receiving tray 50 from the second gap 33 and is gathered with the drainage of the upper water receiving tray 40. It is gathered to the side of the lower guide groove 52 close to the outer cover 20 and then discharged from the first drain port 53, and finally enters the bottom plate and is discharged by the drainage structure of the bottom plate.
[0059] In the above embodiment, a guide ring 21 is provided at the inner side surface of the outer cover 20 corresponding to the exhaust port, and the structure of the guide ring 21 is provided with reference to the existing outdoor unit. Two groups of first drain ports 53 can be provided, and the two groups of first drain ports 53 are respectively located on both sides of the axis of the guide ring 21. The water discharged from the first drain ports 53 of the lower water receiving tray 50 can flow to the bottom plate along the guide ring 21, avoiding the splashing of the drainage, and there is no need to set up an additional guide structure. The drainage can be smoothly guided to the bottom plate with the help of the guide ring 21 that guides the exhaust of the outdoor fan.
[0060] In some other embodiments, a guide pipe may be connected between the first drain port 53 and the chassis, and the drainage from the first drain port 53 may be guided to the chassis by the guide pipe.
[0061] It should be noted that the structure of the lower water receiving tray 50 is not limited to the above embodiments and drawings. As long as the length and width of the lower water receiving tray 50 are greater than the upper water receiving tray 40 and can receive water from the second gap 33 and drain water from the upper water receiving tray 40, the position of the first drain port 53 can be flexibly opened according to actual needs.
[0062] The upper water receiving tray 40 and the lower water receiving tray 50 can be formed by cutting and bending metal sheets, or can be stamped separately. In order to reduce water ingress into the splicing gap, a sealing gasket can be provided between the splicing edge of the top cover 30 and the front panel as required.
[0063] The embodiment of the present application also provides an air conditioner, including an indoor unit and an outdoor unit provided by any of the above embodiments, the outdoor unit including a shell structure and a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger and an outdoor fan arranged in the shell structure. The shell structure includes a top cover 30, a chassis, and a front panel, a side panel and a back panel 60 supported between the top cover 30 and the chassis. The top of the shell structure adopts a splicing structure, and a splicing gap is formed between the side of the top cover 30 and the top of the front panel. A drainage assembly is arranged below the splicing gap, so that the water entering the interior of the outdoor unit from the splicing gap can be received, collected and diverted by the drainage assembly to avoid safety hazards caused by water inflow, and improve the reliability of the outdoor unit and the air conditioner. Other parts of the air conditioner can refer to the prior art, and this application will not elaborate on them.
