[0034] Optionally, in the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 5As shown, the support rib 300 corresponds to the branch pipe joint 520 of the evaporator 500 in up and down direction. The length direction of the evaporator 500 is consistent with the length direction of the shell 100, and the branch pipe 530 of the evaporator 500 is connected to the branch pipe joint 520 at one end of the length direction of the heat exchange plate 510, so that the support part 310 of the support rib 300 divides the internal space of the shell 100 into two cavities arranged in the length direction, wherein the heat exchange plate 510 of the evaporator 500 is located in one of the cavities, and the branch pipe 530 of the evaporator 500 and the control box and the like are located in the other cavity, so as to reduce the immersion damage of the control box caused by the splashing of the condensed water formed in the cavity where the heat exchange plate 510 is located, thereby ensuring the service life and safety of the control box.
[0035] Specifically, in the embodiment, as shown in the figures, Figure 6 As shown, the outer periphery of the support part 310 includes a top edge 313, a side edge 314 connected to the side plate, and an inclined edge 315 connected between the top edge 313 and the side edge 314, and the inclined edge 315 is parallel to and spaced apart from the plate surface of the corresponding heat exchange plate 510 of the evaporator 500. Here is one of the specific shapes of the support part 310, wherein the support part 310 is connected and supported between the corresponding side plate and the top plate 110 of the shell 100 through the top edge 313 and the side edge 314 thereof, and the top edge 313 is specifically used to support the extension part 320 and the accommodating groove 400, thereby improving the strength and mounting structure 200 of the corner of the side plate and the top plate 110 and the strength of the accommodating groove 400, and accordingly ensuring the orientation and shape thereof, and further ensuring the bearing stability of the mounting structure 200 to the motor 600 and the bearing stability of the accommodating groove 400 to the filter screen roll, and ensuring the cooperation of the motor 600 and the filter screen roll. At the same time, the inclined edge 315 of the support part 310 and the plate surface of the corresponding heat exchange plate 510 of the evaporator 500 form a heat dissipation gap 700, and part of the normal temperature air flow entering through the air return opening 111 and the cold air flow after heat exchange with the heat exchange plate 510 can flow into the cavity where the control box is located through the heat dissipation gap 700 during the refrigeration operation of the air conditioner, thereby conducting heat exchange with the control box, and accordingly improving the heat dissipation effect of the control box during the operation of the air conditioner, and further ensuring the normal operation of the control box. Specifically, the side edge 314 of the support rib 300 can be connected to the front side plate 120 or the rear side plate of the shell 100, and accordingly, the side edge 314 and the front heat exchange surface of the front plate body or the rear heat exchange surface of the rear plate body of the heat exchange plate 510 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart to form a heat dissipation gap 700.
[0036] In the embodiment, as shown in the figures, Figure 2As shown, the mounting structure 200 can include a connecting lug 210 for connecting the lug plate 630 of the motor 600, and at least a partial connecting area of the connecting lug 210 serves as a reinforcing mounting portion. The extension portion 320 serves as a partial connecting area of the connecting lug 210 or the entire connecting lug 210, and the extension portion 320 and the support portion 310 form an integrated support rib 300, so that the support stability of the connecting orientation between the side plate of the shell 100 and the top plate 110, the function of the connecting lug 210 for fixing the motor 600, and the fixing stability of the motor 600 are simultaneously achieved by the single support rib 300, and the structure is simple and functional.
[0037] Similarly, the mounting structure 200 can also include a limiting groove 220 for accommodating the wiring protrusion 620 in the motor 600, and one side groove side plate of the limiting groove 220 serves as a reinforcing mounting portion. Specifically, the limiting groove 220 is concave relative to the top plate 110 and includes four vertical mounting portions, i.e., a front groove side plate 221, a rear groove side plate 222, a left groove side plate 223, and a right groove side plate 224. The extension portion 320 can be one of the four, and the extension portion 320 and the support portion 310 form an integrated support rib 300, so that the support stability of the connecting orientation between the side plate of the shell 100 and the top plate 110, the function of the connecting lug 210 for fixing the motor 600, and the fixing stability of the motor 600 are simultaneously achieved by the single support rib 300, and the structure is simple and functional.
[0038] Optionally, in the present embodiment, as shown, Figure 8 The front side plate 120 of the shell 100 serves as the front groove side plate 221 of the limiting groove 220. On the one hand, when the limiting groove 220 is provided, the front side plate 120 of the shell 100 is directly used as the front groove side plate 221, so that the front side plate 120 simultaneously serves as the front side plate 120 of the shell 100 and the front groove side plate 221 of the limiting groove 220, the structure is simple and functional, and the processing convenience and processing cost of the limiting groove 220 and the shell 100 are higher and lower, respectively. On the other hand, a partial area of the front side plate 120 serves as the front groove side plate 221 of the limiting groove 220, so that the left, right, and bottom of the area where the front groove side plate 221 is located are limited by the integral connection of the adjacent areas of the front side plate 120, and the strength and stability are higher, thereby improving the strength and stability of the limiting groove 220 and the limiting stability of the limiting groove 220 to the wiring protrusion 620.
[0039] Specifically, as shown, Figure 4As shown, the motor 600 includes a main body part 610, an ear plate 630 connected to the main body part 610, and a wiring protrusion 620. The mounting structure 200 can simultaneously include the connecting ear 210 and the limiting slot 220. When the motor 600 is mounted, the wiring protrusion 620 of the motor 600 can be embedded in the limiting slot 220 for preliminary installation and positioning. Then, the ear plate 630 of the motor 600 is connected to the connecting ear 210, so as to conveniently and stably fix the motor 600.
[0040] In the embodiment, as shown in Figures 1-4 The mounting structure 200 can include two connecting ears 210. Each of the two connecting ears 210 includes a connecting arm 212 and an ear part 211 for connecting the ear plate 630 of the motor 600. The connecting arm 212 is connected between the top plate 110 and the corresponding ear part 211. The ear parts 211 of the two connecting ears 210 extend towards each other and form a clamping slot 213 between them for clamping the main body part 610 of the motor 600. The connecting arm 212 of one of the two connecting ears 210 serves as a reinforcing mounting part. On the one hand, the extension part 320 of the support rib 300 extends upwards as the connecting arm 212 of one of the two connecting ears 210, so as to improve the strength and stability of the entire connecting ear 210 and the fixing stability of the connecting ear 210 to the motor 600. On the other hand, the ear parts 211 of the two connecting ears 210 extend towards each other to form the clamping slot 213. When the mounting structure 200 includes the limiting slot 220, the limiting slot 220 is located below the clamping slot 213. When the motor 600 is mounted, the main body part 610 of the motor 600 is adjusted to a mounting orientation with a width consistent with the width of the clamping slot and is clamped into the clamping slot until the wiring protrusion 620 is partially or entirely embedded in the limiting slot 220. At this time, the two ear plates 630 of the motor 600 correspond to the two ear parts 211 one by one. The two ear plates 630 are connected to the two ear parts 211. The two connecting ears 210 can simultaneously serve as a limiting mechanism to preliminarily position the motor 600 during installation and limit the main body part 610 of the motor 600 after installation. Thus, the convenience and stability of the motor 600 mounted on the mounting structure 200 are improved by a simple structure. The structure is simple, functional, and low in cost.

Along the width direction of the shell 100, the extension length of the damping hole 112 is not less than the thickness of the ear portion 211, and the two damping holes 112 are respectively arranged below the two ear portions 211. Then the motor 600 is connected to the top plate 110 through the connecting ears 210, and when the motor 600 operates, the damping hole 112 can effectively reduce the vibration transmitted to the top plate 110 through the connecting ears 210, thereby improving the stability of the top plate 110 and other components such as the filter screen roll mounted thereon, and correspondingly improving the stable cooperation between the motor 600 and the filter screen roll, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the filter screen assembly formed by the two.
[0042] In the embodiment, when the mounting structure 200 includes the limiting groove 220 for accommodating the wiring lug 620 of the motor 600, the limiting groove 220 is located between the two ear portions 211; along the thickness direction of the ear portion 211, the extension area of the damping hole 112 completely covers the area where the limiting groove 220 is located. Along the thickness direction of the ear portion 211, the extension length of the damping hole 112 is not less than the length of the area where the ear portion 211 and the limiting groove 220 are located, and the two damping holes 112 are respectively arranged below the two ear portions 211 and on both sides of the limiting groove 220. Then the motor 600 is connected to the top plate 110 through the connecting ears 210 and the limiting groove 220, and when the motor 600 operates, the damping hole 112 can effectively reduce the vibration transmitted to the top plate 110 through the connecting ears 210 and the limiting groove 220, thereby improving the stability of the top plate 110 and other components such as the filter screen roll mounted thereon, and correspondingly further ensuring the stable cooperation between the motor 600 and the filter screen roll, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the filter screen assembly formed by the two.
[0043] The embodiment also provides an air conditioner, which comprises the motor 600 and the shell assembly, and the motor 600 is connected to the mounting structure 200 of the shell assembly. In the air conditioner, the motor 600 is connected to the mounting structure 200 of the shell assembly, wherein the support part 310 of the support rib 300 in the shell assembly can serve as a reinforcing rib to improve the strength and stability of the shell 100 and the mounting structure 200 arranged on the shell 100, thereby ensuring the stability of the shell 100 and the mounting structure 200 arranged thereon, the firmness and stability of the mounting structure 200 bearing the motor 600, and the driving operation of the motor 600 to the filter screen roll to be driven and the normal operation of the air conditioner. Meanwhile, the extension part 320 of the support rib 300 is integrally formed with the support part 310 and serves as one vertical mounting part of the mounting structure 200, so that the connection firmness and strength of the extension part 320 and the support part 310 are higher, and the extension part 320 is connected with other parts of the mounting structure 200, thereby effectively improving the strength and stability of the whole mounting structure 200, further improving the firmness and stability of the mounting structure 200 bearing the motor 600, and ensuring the stable driving of the motor 600 to the filter screen roll to be driven. In addition, the extension part 320 simultaneously serves as a part of the support rib 300 and the mounting structure 200, so that the structure is simple and the functionality is strong, thereby improving the structural simplicity of the shell assembly and reducing the processing cost of the shell assembly on the basis of ensuring the overall strength and stability of the shell assembly.
