Description

[0002] In existing air conditioners, a fan drive circuit is used to drive the fan to operate. As a core electric control component, the stability and safety of the fan drive circuit directly affect the operating performance of the air conditioner. However, in the prior art, the fan drive circuit is generally arranged in the electric control box in an exposed or semi-exposed manner, and this way has significant potential safety hazards and reliability problems.

[0003] From the perspective of after-sales maintenance scenarios, when maintenance personnel conduct fault troubleshooting or component replacement on the air conditioner, they need to frequently contact the fan drive circuit in the electric control box. Due to the lack of an effective protection structure for the module components, it is very likely that the operator's hand will accidentally touch the live interface, exposed circuit, or high-voltage component of the fan drive circuit, resulting in an electric shock risk and seriously threatening the personal safety of the maintenance personnel. At the same time, dust accumulation on the components of the fan drive circuit may also cause the fan drive circuit to fail.

[0030] An embodiment of this application also proposes an air conditioner. The air conditioner is a split air conditioner. The air conditioner includes an indoor unit of the air conditioner. The indoor unit of the air conditioner is arranged in an indoor space. One or more indoor units of the air conditioner can be arranged.

[0031] The air conditioner indoor unit includes an electronic control box 100, an indoor heat exchanger, an electronic expansion valve, a display panel, a remote controller, sensors, a fan, an electric heater, and a housing. A duct is provided inside the housing, and an air inlet located at one end of the duct and an air outlet located at the other end of the duct are also provided on the housing. The fan and the indoor heat exchanger are both arranged in the duct. The fan is used to drive the air in the duct to flow from the air inlet to the air outlet, so that the air flows through the indoor heat exchanger and exchanges heat with the indoor heat exchanger, thereby realizing heating and cooling of the air.

[0032] The electronic expansion valve is arranged inside the housing. The electronic expansion valve is connected to the indoor heat exchanger. The electronic expansion valve is used to precisely control the flow rate and pressure of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation circuit, and plays the roles of throttling and reducing pressure, dynamically adjusting the refrigerant flow rate, improving energy efficiency, and enhancing system stability.

[0033] The display panel is arranged at the front end of the housing. The display panel is used to display the working status information of the air conditioner. For example, the display panel can display information such as the set temperature of the air conditioner, the working mode of the air conditioner, the indoor temperature, and the fault code.

[0034] The remote controller is the control panel of the air conditioner. The remote controller can be installed on the indoor wall. The remote controller is used to set the working mode of the air conditioner, set the set temperature of the air conditioner, and turn the air conditioner on and off.

[0035] The sensors include a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor. The temperature sensor can be arranged on the housing or on the display panel. The temperature sensor is used to measure the indoor ambient temperature. The humidity sensor can be arranged on the housing. The humidity sensor is used to measure the indoor ambient humidity.

[0036] The electric heater is arranged in the duct. The electric heater is used to assist in heating the air flowing through the duct.

[0037] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the electronic control box 100 includes a box body 1 and an electronic control board 2 arranged inside the box body 1. The electronic control board 2 includes a fan drive module 27 and a power supply board 21. The fan drive module 27 is installed on the power supply board 21.

[0038] As Figure 5 、 6 shown, Figure 5 、 6 shows a fan drive module 27 of an air conditioner in the present application. The fan drive module 27 includes a fan drive board 274, a radiator 271, and an insulating housing 270.

[0039] As Figure 7As shown, the fan drive board 274 includes a substrate 2741 and a fan drive circuit 2742. The fan drive circuit 2742 is disposed on the substrate 2741. The substrate 2741 may be a printed circuit board. The fan drive circuit 2742 of the fan drive board 274 is electrically connected to the power supply board 21, and the power supply board 21 is configured to convert industrial frequency alternating current into direct current to supply power to the fan drive circuit 2742 of the fan drive board 274. The fan drive circuit 2742 is used to drive the fan to operate. The fan may be a DC fan, and the fan drive circuit 2742 may be a square wave drive circuit, a sine wave drive circuit, or a brushless DC motor (BLDC) drive circuit.

[0040] As Figure 6 , 9 shown, the radiator 271 is made of a material with high thermal conductivity. The radiator 271 may be made of metal, such as aluminum or an alloy of aluminum. The radiator 271 abuts against the fan drive board 274. The radiator 271 may be a fin radiator.

[0041] As Figure 5 shown, the insulating shell 270 is made of an insulating material and has insulating properties. The insulating material may be plastic. The insulating shell 270 may be configured as a thin shell structure. The insulating shell 270 and the radiator 271 enclose a cavity that houses the fan drive board 274.

[0042] In this way, the insulating shell 270 and the radiator 271 enclose a sealed cavity that houses the fan drive board 274. This can prevent direct human contact with the fan drive board 274, avoid electric shock to humans, and improve safety. At the same time, this cavity can also prevent external dust and water from entering the cavity, avoid dust accumulation or moisture on the fan drive board 274, and extend the service life of the fan drive board 274. In particular, the radiator 271 abuts against the fan drive board 274, and the radiator 271 can dissipate the heat generated when the fan drive board 274 operates to the outside of the cavity, preventing the fan drive board 274 from overheating and causing unstable operation of the electronic components on the fan drive board 274.

[0043] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 5 , 6 , 8 shown, the insulating shell 270 includes a protective shell 272 and an insulating member 273. Both the protective shell 272 and the insulating member 273 are made of insulating materials. The protective shell 272 is a thin shell structure. An inner cavity 2720 is provided inside the protective shell 272, and a first opening 2721 is also provided on the protective shell 272. The first opening 2721 may be a rectangular opening. The first opening 2721 is provided on one side of the inner cavity 2720 and communicates with the inner cavity 2720.

[0044] The insulating member 273 can be set to a straight bar shape. The insulating member 273 is disposed at the bottom end of the radiator 271 and extends along the bottom end of the radiator 271. The insulating member 273 and the radiator 271 jointly cover the first opening 2721 of the protective case 272. The insulating member 273 and the radiator 271 close the first opening 2721 of the protective case 272. The insulating member 273 is also connected to the protective case 272. A snap connection can be provided between the insulating member 273 and the protective case 272. For example, male snaps are provided at both opposite ends of the insulating member 273, and two female snaps are respectively provided on the opposite side walls of the protective case 272, and the two male snaps are respectively inserted into the two female snaps.

[0045] The insulating member 273 is disposed at the bottom end of the radiator 271. The insulating member 273 can separate the radiator 271 of the fan driving module 27 from the power supply board 21, which is usually a circuit board. After separating the radiator 271 from the power supply board 21, it can avoid large-area contact between the radiator 271 and the power supply board 21 of the fan driving module 27, resulting in electric leakage and short circuit, and at the same time increase the creepage distance between the radiator 271 and the power supply board 21.

[0046] In a schematic embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a first connection pin 2744 is further provided on the substrate 2741. A plurality of first connection pins 2744 can be provided. The substrate 2741 can be configured as a flat plate, such as a rectangular flat plate. A plurality of first connection pins 2744 are all located at one end of the substrate 2741 close to the insulating member 273. One ends of the plurality of first connection pins 2744 are all connected to the substrate 2741, and the other ends of the first connection pins 2744 extend towards the insulating member 273. The first connection pin 2744 is a rod-shaped structure made of a metal material, and a welding connection can be provided between the first connection pin 2744 and the substrate 2741. The first connection pin 2744 is a pin of the fan driving board 274 and is used for transmitting electrical signals or power.

[0047] A plurality of profiling openings 2733 are provided on the insulating member 273. The number of profiling openings 2733 is the same as the number of first connection pins 2744. The profiling openings 2733 extend from the side of the insulating member 273 close to the radiator 271 to the side of the insulating member 273 facing away from the radiator 271. The plurality of first connection pins 2744 respectively extend out of the cavity enclosed by the insulating case 270 and the radiator 271 through the plurality of profiling openings 2733 on the insulating member 273.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first connection pin 2744 can be L-shaped. The first connection pin 2744 includes a first straight segment 27441 and a second straight segment 27442. The first straight end is perpendicular to the substrate 2741, and one end of the first straight segment 27441 is connected to the substrate 2741. The second straight end is parallel to the substrate 2741, and one end of the second straight segment 27442 is connected to the end of the first straight segment 27441 facing away from the substrate 2741. The other end of the second straight segment 27442 extends towards the insulating member 273. The second straight end of the first connection pin 2744 passes through the profiling opening 2733.

[0049] In this way, the first connection pin 2744 of the fan driving board 274 passes through the profiling opening 2733 on the insulating member 273 and extends out of the cavity enclosed by the insulating shell 270 and the radiator 271, so that there is a large creepage distance between the first connection pin 2744 and the radiator 271, avoiding the safety risk of the first connection pin 2744 discharging to the radiator 271. At the same time, the fan driving board 274 also realizes fixed connection and electrical connection with the power board 21 through the first connection pin 2744.

[0050] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 6 、 8 shown, the profiling opening 2733 of the insulating member 273 is arranged as a groove, and the groove is formed by the depression of the side surface of the insulating member 273 that abuts against the protective shell 272. The end face of the protective shell 272 facing the insulating member 273 covers the opening of the groove.

[0051] In this way, during assembly, the fan driving board 274 can be first installed into the protective shell 272, then the first connection pin 2744 is welded to the power board 21, and then the profiling opening 2733 of the insulating member 273 is aligned with the first connection pin 2744, and the insulating member 273 is moved so that the plurality of first connection pins 2744 respectively enter the plurality of profiling openings 2733, and then the insulating member 273 is installed on the protective shell 272, and finally the radiator 271 is installed on the protective shell 272 and abuts against the fan driving board 274. By arranging the profiling opening 2733 of the insulating member 273 as a groove, the assembly of the fan driving module 27 is more convenient.

[0052] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 6 、 9As shown, the radiator 271 includes a heat dissipation plate 2711 and a plurality of first fins 2712. The heat dissipation plate 2711 can be configured as a flat plate. The heat dissipation plate 2711 is parallel to the substrate 2741. The heat dissipation plate 2711 covers the first opening 2721 of the protective case 272. The plurality of first fins 2712 are all arranged on the surface of the heat dissipation plate 2711 facing away from the protective case 272. The first fins 2712 are configured as straight strip-shaped plates. The first fins 2712 are perpendicular to the heat dissipation plate 2711. The first fins 2712 extend from one side of the heat dissipation plate 2711 to the other side of the heat dissipation plate 2711. The plurality of first fins 2712 are parallel to each other and are arranged at intervals in a direction perpendicular to the first fins 2712.

[0053] The first fins 2712 can increase the contact area between the air and the radiator 271, improve the heat exchange efficiency between the radiator 271 and the air, and the radiator 271 can dissipate heat to the air outside the cavity faster.

[0054] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the insulating member 273 includes a main body portion 2731 and a plurality of second fins 2732. The main body portion 2731 can be configured as a strip. The main body portion 2731 is arranged at the bottom end of the heat dissipation plate 2711. The two ends of the main body portion 2731 can be respectively aligned with the two ends of the heat dissipation plate 2711. The main body portion 2731 and the heat dissipation plate 2711 jointly cover the first opening 2721 of the protective case 272. The second fins 2732 have the same shape and size as the first fins 2712. The plurality of second fins 2732 are all arranged on the side of the main body portion 2731 facing away from the protective case 272. The plurality of second fins 2732 are parallel to the plurality of first fins 2712. The plurality of second fins 2732 are arranged at intervals. The arrangement direction of the plurality of second fins 2732 is the same as the arrangement direction of the plurality of first fins 2712.

[0055] In this way, the insulating member 273 is provided with the second fins 2732, and it is easily considered as a part of the radiator 271 in appearance, improving the aesthetic degree of the fan drive module 27.

[0056] In a schematic embodiment, the radiator 271 further includes a plurality of struts 2713. The struts 2713 can be straight strip-shaped. The struts 2713 can be cylindrical. The struts 2713 are arranged at the bottom end of the radiator 271. The struts 2713 can be connected to the bottom ends of the first fins 2712 or the heat dissipation plate 2711. In this embodiment, the struts 2713 are connected to the plurality of first fins 2712 close to the insulating member 273. The struts 2713 can vertically penetrate through the plurality of first fins 2712.

[0057] A plurality of relief openings 2734 are provided on the insulating member 273. The relief openings 2734 can be configured as through holes or grooves, and the relief openings 2734 extend from the side of the insulating member 273 close to the radiator 271 to the side of the insulating member 273 facing away from the radiator 271. The relief openings 2734 are for the struts 2713 of the insulating member 273 to pass through.

[0058] A plurality of mounting holes are provided on the power supply board 21. The plurality of mounting holes on the power supply board 21 are aligned with the plurality of relief openings 2734 on the insulating member 273.

[0059] The struts 2713, the relief openings 2734 on the insulating member 273, and the mounting holes on the power supply board 21 are provided in one-to-one correspondence. Each strut 2713 passes through the relief opening 2734 of the insulating member 273 corresponding to the strut 2713 and is inserted into the mounting hole on the power supply board 21 corresponding to the strut 2713, thereby realizing the fixed connection between the strut 2713 and the power supply board 21. The strut 2713 can support the radiator 271, and the radiator 271 can be installed more stably.

[0060] In a schematic embodiment, the strut 2713 is provided and connected to a plurality of first fins 2712 close to the insulating member 273. The extending direction of the strut 2713 is perpendicular to the first fins 2712, and the strut 2713 penetrates through the plurality of first fins 2712 and is connected to the plurality of first fins 2712. The relief openings 2734 are provided on the second fins 2732. The relief openings 2734 are grooves formed by the recess on the side of the second fins 2732 facing away from the main body portion 2731.

[0061] In this way, after the protective case 272 and the insulating member 273 are assembled together, when the radiator 271 is installed again, the radiator 271 can enter the relief opening 2734 from the opening of the groove-shaped relief opening 2734, making the assembly between the radiator 271 and the insulating member 273 simpler.

[0062] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, the fan drive circuit 2742 includes a power semiconductor module 2743. The power semiconductor module 2743 is formed by encapsulating a plurality of power semiconductor devices. The power semiconductor module 2743 can be configured as a substantially hexahedral structure. The power semiconductor module 2743 can be a field effect transistor, a thyristor, or an IGBT. The power semiconductor module 2743 is disposed on the board surface of the substrate 2741 close to the radiator 271.

[0063] The radiator 271 further includes a boss 2714. The boss 2714 can be configured as a straight hexahedron. The boss 2714 is disposed on the side of the heat dissipation plate 2711 facing the fan drive board 274. The top end of the boss 2714 facing away from the heat dissipation plate 2711 abuts against one end of the power semiconductor facing away from the substrate 2741.

[0064] When the fan drive circuit 2742 is operating, the power semiconductor module 2743 generates a large amount of heat. The power semiconductor module 2743 directly abuts against the boss 2714 of the radiator 271, enabling the heat to be quickly transferred to the radiator 271 and then from the radiator 271 to the outside air, thus enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency of the fan drive module 27.

[0065] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 6 、 9 shown in 10, the boss 2714 is configured as a strip-shaped platform that extends from one side of the substrate 2741 to the other side of the substrate 2741. The side wall of the protective case 272 near one end of the substrate 2741 is further provided with a positioning groove 2725, and the boss 2714 extends into the positioning groove 2725. Two positioning grooves 2725 can be provided, and the two positioning grooves 2725 are located on opposite sides of the protective case 272.

[0066] The boss 2714 extending from one side of the substrate 2741 to the other side of the substrate 2741 is conducive to quickly introducing heat from the boss 2714 to the substrate 2741, accelerating the heat transfer between the boss 2714 and the substrate 2741, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency. At the same time, the protective case 272 is provided with a positioning groove 2725. When assembling the radiator 271, the boss 2714 of the radiator 271 can be inserted into the positioning groove 2725, thereby achieving the positioning between the radiator 271 and the protective case 272 and reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0067] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 10 shown, the protective case 272 includes a first side plate 2722, a back plate 2727, and a plurality of support platforms 2723. The first side plate 2722 can be configured as a cylindrical shape. The back plate 2727 can be configured as a flat plate, such as a rectangular flat plate. The back plate 2727 covers one end of the first side plate 2722. The back plate 2727 and the first side plate 2722 enclose an inner cavity 2720. The back plate 2727 is parallel to the substrate 2741 and the heat dissipation plate 2711.

[0068] The support platforms 2723 are arranged in the inner cavity 2720 and are connected to the back plate 2727. The support platforms 2723, the back plate 2727, and the first side plate 2722. A plurality of support platforms 2723 can be spaced apart. The top end of the support platform 2723 facing away from the back plate 2727 abuts against the surface of the substrate 2741 facing away from the radiator 271.

[0069] In this way, the fan drive board 274 is clamped between the radiator 271 and the support platform 272, which can not only firmly fix the fan drive board 274 to prevent the fan drive board 274 from being damaged when the fan drive module 27 drops or collides, but also enable the fan drive board 274 to be in close contact with the radiator 271, enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0070] In a schematic embodiment, the protective case 272 includes a first buckle 2726. The first buckle 2726 is provided on the back plate 2727. There may be two first buckles 2726. The two first buckles 2726 hook the opposite ends of the substrate 2741.

[0071] In this way, when the substrate 2741 of the fan drive board 274 is installed into the protective case 272, the protective case 272 is snap-connected to the substrate 2741 through the two first buckles 2726. At the same time, the support platform 2723 abuts against the back surface of the substrate 2741, so that the substrate 2741 can be fixed on the protective case 272, which is more convenient for the assembly between the fan drive board 274 and the protective case 272.

[0072] In a schematic embodiment, screw holes are provided on the radiator 271. The screw holes are located on the side of the radiator 271 close to the fan drive board 274. The screw holes may be provided on the top surface of the boss 2714. There may be multiple screw holes.

[0075] The fan drive module 27 further includes screws. There may be multiple screws. The screws, screw holes, first through holes 2745 and second through holes 2724 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. Each screw sequentially passes through the corresponding second through hole 2724 and first through hole 2745 and is screwed into the screw hole.

[0076] The screws can connect the radiator 271, the fan drive board 274 and the protective case 272 together in sequence. The radiator 271, the fan drive board 274 and the protective case 272 are connected by screws, which is more stable.

[0078] The fan driving module 27 is arranged inside the box body 1. The side of the radiator 271 facing away from the protective case 272 covers the heat dissipation opening 13 of the box body 1. The radiator 271 can be configured as a fin radiator, and the side of the radiator 271 provided with the first fins 2712 covers the heat dissipation opening 13.

[0079] When the fan driving board 274 is working, a large amount of heat is generated. This heat is transferred to the radiator 271 and then directly transferred to the air outside the box body 1 through the radiator 271, so that the temperature inside the electric control box 100 can be maintained at an appropriate temperature, avoiding the overheating of the temperature inside the electric control box 100, which may cause the electrical components inside the electric control box 100 to malfunction.

[0080] In a schematic embodiment, the position of the heat dissipation opening 13 is not limited. The heat dissipation opening 13 can be arranged on the side, top or bottom of the box body 1. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation opening 13 is arranged on a side of the box body 1.

[0150] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the electronic control box 100 further includes a first sealant layer 41. The first sealant layer 41 fills the gap between the bottom case 11 and the surface of the power supply board 21 facing away from the control board 22. The gap between the bottom case 11 and the power supply board 21 can be filled with potting glue by potting, and the first sealant layer 41 is formed after the potting glue solidifies. The potting glue can be UV glue. The first sealant layer 41 can fill the gap between the bottom case 11 and the power supply board 21, prevent water and dust from entering the gap and causing damage to the power supply board 21, and improve the reliability of the power supply board 21.

[0151] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 11 shown, an isolation ring 112 is further provided on one side of the bottom case 11 close to the power supply board 21. The isolation ring 112 is configured as a circular protrusion, and the isolation ring 112 can be circular. The isolation ring 11 and the bottom case 11 can be an integrally formed structure. One end of the isolation ring 112 surrounds the second mounting through hole 111 on the bottom case 11, and the isolation ring 112 can be coaxially arranged with the second mounting through hole 111.

[0152] In this way, when the potting glue is filled into the gap between the bottom case 11 and the power supply board 21, the potting glue will not flow into the second mounting through hole 111, which can not only ensure the smoothness of the second mounting through hole 111, so that the grounding screw can pass through the second mounting through hole 111, but also ensure that the potting glue will not overflow from the second mounting through hole 111.

[0153] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 8As shown, the electronic control box 100 further includes a second sealant layer 42. The second sealant layer 42 covers the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22.

The potting compound can be UV glue. The second sealant layer 42 can completely cover the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22. The thickness of the second sealant layer 42 is greater than or equal to the maximum distance between the main body part 2731 of the electronic components on the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22 and the power supply board 21. The second sealant layer 42 potting-seals all the pins of the electronic components on the surface of the power supply board 21.

[0154] In this way, the second sealant layer 42 can isolate the air from the power supply board 21, avoiding moisture and dust from soiling the power supply board 21. At the same time, the second potting-sealant layer potting-seals all the pins of the electronic components on the surface of the power supply board 21, which can not only improve the electrical insulation performance, but also prevent the electronic components from falling off when the electronic control box 100 vibrates, further improving the reliability of the power supply board 21.

[0155] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 4 、 15 shown, the electronic control box 100 further includes a glue-blocking cylinder 5. The glue-blocking cylinder 5 is arranged on the surface of the power supply board 21 facing away from the bottom case 11. The glue-blocking cylinder 5 includes a cylinder body 51 and a connecting column 52. One end of the connecting column 52 is connected to the cylinder body 51, and the other end of the connecting column 52 is connected to the power supply board 21. The connecting column 52 can be inserted into the power supply board 21. The cylinder body 51 is configured as a cylindrical structure. One end of the cylinder body 51 abuts against the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22. The cylinder body 51 surrounds the third mounting through-hole 210 of the power supply board 21. The height of the cylinder body 51 in its axial direction is greater than the thickness of the second sealant layer 42. The second sealant layer 42 is located outside the cylinder body 51.

[0156] In this way, when the potting compound is delivered to the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22, it can prevent the potting compound from entering the third mounting through-hole 210 of the power supply board 21, ensuring that the third mounting through-hole 210 is unobstructed, so that the screw rod of the grounding screw can smoothly pass through the third mounting through-hole 210 during subsequent installation.

[0157] In a schematic embodiment, as Figure 12As shown in the figure, a guiding cylinder 124 is further provided on the housing 121 of the upper cover 12. The guiding cylinder 124 is configured as a straight tubular structure. The guiding cylinder 124 extends from the first mounting through-hole 123 of the upper cover 12 to the third mounting through-hole 210 on the power supply board 21. One end of the guiding cylinder 124 close to the first mounting through-hole 123 on the upper cover 12 is fixed on the housing 121, and the guiding cylinder 124 and the housing 121 may be of an integrally formed structure. One end of the guiding cylinder 124 close to the third mounting through-hole 210 on the power supply board 21 abuts against the surface of the power supply board 21 facing the control board 22 and is inserted into the barrel 51 of the rubber baffle cylinder 5.

[0158] In this way, when installing the grounding screw, the grounding screw is fed into the guiding cylinder 124 from the first mounting through-hole 123, and the grounding screw can slide along the guiding cylinder 124 into the third mounting through-hole 210, making the installation of the grounding screw more convenient.

[0159] In another exemplary embodiment, as Figure 12 , 13 shown, the electric control board 2 includes an insulating housing 261 and a switch circuit 215. The switch circuit 215 may include a relay. The switch circuit 215 is disposed within the insulating housing 261. The top end of the insulating housing 261 seals the load wiring opening 103a of the box body 1. The electric auxiliary heating wiring terminal 33 is connected to the top end of the insulating housing 261 and extends out of the box body 1 from the load wiring opening 103a. The switch circuit 215 is electrically connected to the power supply line terminal 31 and the electric auxiliary heating wiring terminal 33. The switch circuit 215 is used to conduct and disconnect the circuit between the power supply line terminal 31 and the electric auxiliary heating wiring terminal 33, thereby realizing the switching of the electric heater in the indoor unit.

[0160] The insulating housing 261 seals the load wiring opening 103a of the box body 1, which can prevent water and dust from entering the box body 1 from the load wiring opening 103a of the box body 1, improving the protection performance of the box body 1.

[0161] In another exemplary embodiment, as Figure 18 , 19 shown, all the wiring terminals 3 extend out of the box body 1 through the wiring opening 10a. In this embodiment, the multiple wiring terminals 3 include an electric auxiliary heating wiring terminal 33, a weak current wiring terminal 34, a power supply line terminal 31, a communication line terminal 32, and a fan wiring terminal 35.

[0162] Since all the terminal blocks 3 extend out of the box body 1 through the wiring openings 10a, the terminal blocks 3 occupy little internal space of the box body 1, which can reduce the volume occupied by the box body 1, increase the flow area of the air duct of the air conditioner indoor unit, reduce the resistance of the air in the air duct, and thus increase the air volume of the air conditioner indoor unit.
