Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to, but is not limited to, the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a panel device and an air conditioner. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the improvement of people's demand for life quality, the refrigeration demand of kitchen air conditioners is gradually favored. There are currently three types of kitchen air conditioners on the market: the first is a mobile air conditioner, the second is a split wall-mounted air conditioner, and the third is an embedded air conditioner.

[0003] For the kitchen scene, there are problems such as high humidity and high oil pollution. The installation position of the embedded kitchen air conditioner is inside the kitchen ceiling, and the panel is exposed, so it is more likely to accumulate oil and steam, especially at the return air inlet of the panel.

[0004] The return air inlet of the existing embedded kitchen air conditioner adopts the structure form of the open return air inlet of the ordinary embedded air conditioner, and whether the air conditioner is turned on or not, the problem of high-temperature steam and oil pollution entering the return air inlet exists, which will reduce the service life of the oil pollution filter screen and affect the service life of the evaporator. In addition, it will also cause the internal components to be exposed to oil pollution for a long time, making it difficult to clean and shortening the regular cleaning cycle, thereby affecting user experience and air conditioner reliability. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a panel device and an air conditioner, which can reduce the oil pollution and steam entering the air conditioner through the return air inlet.

[0006] The panel device provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises a panel frame provided with an opening, a panel assembly comprising a panel and a sliding limiting piece, the panel being rotatably connected with the panel frame and being arranged to open and close the opening, the sliding limiting piece being limited to the panel and being capable of sliding relative to the panel between a locked position and an unlocked position, the sliding limiting piece being provided with a sliding cooperation part, a driving mechanism comprising a driving piece arranged on the panel frame and a swing piece connected with the driving piece, the swing piece being provided with a sliding part for cooperating with the sliding cooperation part, based on the sliding limiting piece being located at the locked position, the sliding part being capable of sliding and rotating relative to the sliding cooperation part, so that the panel can rotate between an open position for opening the opening and a closed position for closing the opening, and based on the sliding limiting piece being located at the unlocked position, the sliding part is separated from the sliding cooperation part, so that the panel assembly can be unlocked from the driving mechanism.

[0007] The panel device provided by the embodiments of the present application can open or close the opening (i.e., the return air inlet) on the panel frame through the panel. In this way, when the air conditioner needs to be started, the driving mechanism can drive the panel to open the opening, so that indoor air can enter the air conditioner through the return air inlet, ensuring the normal use of the air conditioner. When the air conditioner does not need to be started, the driving mechanism can drive the panel to close the opening, so that oil stains, steam and the like can only stay outside the air conditioner, avoiding the oil stains, steam and the like in the kitchen from entering the air conditioner through the return air inlet, thereby being beneficial to prolonging the service life of the oil stain filter screen and the evaporator, and being beneficial to prolonging the cleaning cycle of the air conditioner, so as to improve the user experience and the reliability of the air conditioner.

[0008] In addition, by reasonably controlling the opening angle of the panel under the use state of the air conditioner (for example, less than 90°), the oil stains entering the equipment can be effectively reduced while ensuring the return air volume of the air conditioner, because the panel itself can intercept part of the oil stains, so that the oil stains are deposited on the panel.

[0009] In addition, the sliding limiting piece and the swinging piece are matched between the panel and the driving piece. When the panel does not need to be cleaned and maintained, the sliding limiting piece is in the locked position, so as to ensure the effective cooperation between the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part, thereby ensuring that the driving piece can drive the panel to rotate between the opening position and the closing position. When the panel needs to be cleaned and maintained, the sliding limiting piece can be slid to the unlocked position, so that the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part are separated, and the panel assembly and the driving mechanism are unlocked. Therefore, the panel assembly can be opened to about 90° under the action of gravity, which greatly facilitates the operator to clean and maintain the panel, and is also beneficial to the operator to clean or maintain the components inside the return air inlet area and the return air inlet.

[0045] The principles and features of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and the examples are only used to explain the present application and not to limit the scope of the present application.

[0046] The panel device provided by the embodiments of the present application and the air conditioner. The panel device can be used in an embedded air conditioner to solve the problem that the return air inlet of the embedded air conditioner is easy to be contaminated by oil and steam when the embedded air conditioner is used as a kitchen air conditioner. Accordingly, the opening 11 of the panel frame 1 is a return air inlet, and the panel 21 is a return air panel 21. Of course, the panel device can also be used in other scenarios. For example, the panel 21 can also be an air outlet panel 21, and the opening 11 is an air outlet; or the panel 21 is a maintenance panel 21, and the opening 11 is a maintenance opening; or the opening 11 is an opening 11 for other purposes, and the panel 21 is a panel 21 for other purposes. The equipment including the panel device is not limited to an embedded air conditioner, but can also be a non-embedded air conditioner, or other equipment such as an air purifier.

[0047] The embedded air conditioner can be a kitchen air conditioner, and of course can also be used in other places. The embedded air conditioner can be an all-in-one machine, or an indoor unit of a split air conditioner. The embedded air conditioner can be installed in the ceiling (such as a suspended ceiling), or can be installed in a wall. The following is explained and described by taking the panel device used in an air conditioner, the air conditioner being an embedded kitchen air conditioner, and the air conditioner being installed in a suspended ceiling as an example.

[0048] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 , the panel device comprises a panel frame 1, a panel assembly 2, and a driving mechanism 3.

[0049] The panel frame 1 is provided with an opening 11. The panel assembly 2 comprises a panel 21 and a sliding limiting piece 22. The panel 21 is rotatably connected with the panel frame 1 and is configured to open or close the opening 11. The sliding limiting piece 22 is limited to the panel 21 and can slide relative to the panel 21 between a locked position and an unlocked position. The sliding limiting piece 22 is provided with a sliding matching part. The opening 11 is an air return opening, and the panel 21 is an air return panel 21. The sliding matching part can be, but is not limited to, a sliding groove 2211, a sliding rail, a sliding shaft 321, and the like.

[0050] The driving mechanism 3 comprises a driving piece 31 arranged on the panel frame 1 and a swing piece 32 connected with the driving piece 31. The swing piece 32 is provided with a sliding part for matching with the sliding matching part. The sliding part can be, but is not limited to, a sliding shaft 321, a sliding block, a sliding groove 2211, and the like. The driving piece 31 can be, but is not limited to, a stepping motor. The swing piece 32 can be, but is not limited to, a swing rod.

[0051] Based on that the sliding limiting piece 22 is located at the locked position, the sliding part can slide and rotate relative to the sliding matching part, so that the panel 21 can rotate between an open position for opening the opening 11 and a closed position for closing the opening 11.

[0052] Based on that the sliding limiting piece 22 is located at the unlocked position, the sliding part is separated from the sliding matching part, so that the panel assembly 2 can be unlocked with the driving mechanism 3.

[0053] The panel device provided by the embodiment of the present application can open or close the opening 11 (i.e., the air return opening) on the panel frame 1 through the panel 21. In this way, when the air conditioner needs to be started, the driving mechanism 3 can drive the panel 21 to open the opening 11, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 , so that indoor air can enter the air conditioner through the air return opening, ensuring normal use of the air conditioner. When the air conditioner does not need to be started, the driving mechanism 3 can drive the panel 21 to close the opening 11 (as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 ), so that oil stains, steam and the like can only stay outside the air conditioner, avoiding that the oil stains, steam and the like in the kitchen enter the air conditioner through the air return opening, thereby being beneficial to prolong the service life of the oil stain filter screen and the evaporator and being beneficial to prolong the cleaning cycle of the air conditioner, so as to improve user experience and reliability of the air conditioner.

[0054] In addition, by reasonably controlling the opening angle of the panel 21 (such as less than 90°) under the use state of the air conditioner, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the air return amount of the air conditioner can be ensured while effectively reducing the oil stains entering the equipment interior, because the panel 21 itself can intercept a part of the oil stains, so that the oil stains are deposited on the panel 21.

[0055] Further, the panel 21 cooperates with the driving member 31 through the sliding limiting member 22 and the swinging member 32. When the panel 21 does not need to be cleaned and maintained, the sliding limiting member 22 is in the locked position (as shown in Figure 8 to Figure 11 ), ensuring the effective cooperation between the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part, so as to ensure that the driving member 31 can drive the panel 21 to rotate between the open position and the closed position. When the panel 21 needs to be cleaned and maintained, the sliding limiting member 22 can be slid to the unlocked position (as shown in Figure 12 ), at which time the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part are separated, so that the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 are unlocked, and thus the panel assembly 2 can be opened to about 90° (as shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14 ) under the action of gravity, which greatly facilitates the operator to clean and maintain the panel 21 and clean or maintain the components inside the return air outlet area.

[0056] In some exemplary embodiments, the sliding limiting member 22 is arranged to be able to slide from the locked position to the unlocked position under the action of an external force, as shown in Figure 12 . Figure 12 The arrow in indicates the direction of the external force, which is also the direction in which the sliding limiting member 22 slides from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0057] Figure 6 The panel assembly 2 further comprises a resilient member 23, as shown in . The resilient member 23 cooperates with the sliding limiting member 22 and the panel 21 and is arranged to be able to drive the sliding limiting member 22 to slide from the unlocked position to the locked position by using the restoring force thereof.

[0058] In other words, when it is needed to unlock the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3, a driving force is applied to the sliding limiting member 22. When the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 are unlocked, the driving force applied to the sliding limiting member 22 is removed, and the sliding limiting member 22 is automatically returned to the locked position.

[0059] Conversely, in the unlocked state, when it is needed to connect the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3, a driving force is first applied to the sliding limiting member 22 to slide the sliding limiting member 22 to a position in which the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part are opposite to each other, and then the driving force applied to the sliding limiting member 22 is removed, and the sliding limiting member 22 is automatically returned to the locked position, the sliding cooperation part and the sliding part are cooperated, and the locking of the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 is realized.

[0060] The elastic element 23 can reduce the operation difficulty of the operator, and improve the user experience. In addition, the unlocking of the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 needs to overcome the elastic force of the elastic element 23 by applying an external force, so that the elastic element 23 improves the stability of the sliding limiting piece 22 in the locked position, and improves the cooperation reliability of the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3.

[0061] Of course, the panel assembly 2 can also not include the elastic element 23, and the sliding of the sliding limiting piece 22 from the unlocked position to the locked position can also be driven by applying an external force. Further, other limiting structures (such as a latch, a screw, etc.) are used to realize the locking and unlocking of the sliding part and the sliding cooperation part, so as to ensure the stability of the sliding limiting piece 22 in the locked position.

[0062] In some embodiments, the elastic element 23 and the limiting sliding piece are an integral structure. Alternatively, the elastic element 23 and the limiting sliding piece are a split assembly structure.

[0063] In another embodiment, the elastic element 23 and the panel 21 are an integral structure. Alternatively, the elastic element 23 and the panel 21 are a split assembly structure.

[0064] In some examples, the panel 21 is provided with a limiting portion 211, as shown in Figure 7 The elastic element 23 includes at least one elastic arm 231, one end of the elastic arm 231 is connected with the sliding limiting piece 22, and the other end of the elastic arm 231 is limited in the limiting portion 211.

[0065] The structure of the limiting portion 211 is not limited. For example, the limiting portion 211 can be a limiting column 2111, a limiting rib 2113, a limiting block, a limiting plate 2112, or a combination thereof. For example, as shown in Figure 9 The limiting plate 2112 can be arranged below the limiting column 2111, and the limiting rib 2113 can be arranged on the side wall surface of the limiting column 2111, so that the limiting plate 2112 can avoid friction between the elastic arm 231 and the panel 21, and the elastic arm 231 can be better limited.

[0066] The limiting cooperation mode of the elastic arm 231 and the limiting portion 211 is not limited. For example, the other end of the elastic arm 231 and the limiting portion 211 can be limited by abutting, or can be limited by plug-in cooperation, or can be limited by hooking cooperation, or can be limited by fixed connection.

[0067] In other examples, the elastic member 23 is a spring, one end of the spring is limited in the limiting portion 211, and the other end of the spring is limited in the sliding limiting member 22. The limiting manner of the spring with the limiting portion 211 and the sliding limiting member 22 is not limited, and can refer to the limiting manner of the elastic arm 231 described above, which will not be listed one by one here.

[0068] In some example embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 7 The sliding limiting member 22 includes a sliding rail portion 221 and an operation portion 222. The sliding rail portion 221 is provided with a sliding fitting portion. The operation portion 222 is connected with the sliding rail portion 221 and is arranged to drive the sliding rail portion 221 to slide relative to the panel 21 under an external force to make the sliding portion disengage from the sliding fitting portion.

[0069] When it is needed to unlock the driving mechanism 3 and the panel assembly 2, the operation portion 222 can be operated to apply an external force to the operation portion 222, so as to realize the sliding of the sliding limiting member 22 from the locking position to the unlocking position.

[0070] In one example, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 7 The sliding rail portion 221 is a block structure in the shape of a cuboid and is provided with a sliding groove 2211. The operation portion 222 can be a plate structure in the shape of a rectangle.

[0071] The operation portion 222 can be a pressing operation portion 222, that is, the driving force is applied by pressing the operation portion 222, the pressing direction is consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding limiting member 22 from the locking position to the unlocking position, and then the inlet and outlet of the sliding groove 2211 are towards the operation portion 222.

[0072] The operation portion 222 can also be a pulling operation portion 222, that is, the driving force is applied by pulling the operation portion 222, the pulling direction is consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding limiting member 22 from the locking position to the unlocking position, and then the inlet and outlet of the sliding groove 2211 are away from the operation portion 222.

[0073] In some example embodiments, the panel 21 is further provided with a guiding positioning portion, as shown in Figure 7 The sliding limiting member 22 further includes a guiding positioning fitting portion 223. The guiding positioning portion cooperates with the guiding positioning fitting portion 223 and is arranged to guide the sliding of the sliding limiting member 22 between the locking position and the unlocking position and limit the sliding amplitude of the sliding limiting member 22.

[0074] This is conducive to improving the consistency of the sliding track of the sliding limiting member 22 and avoiding the deviation of the sliding track of the sliding limiting member 22 or the excessive sliding amplitude to affect the repeated disassembly and assembly cooperation between the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3.

[0075] In some example embodiments, as shown inFigure 7 As shown, the guide positioning part includes a guide positioning column 212, and the guide positioning matching part 223 is provided with a guide positioning sliding groove 2231. The guide positioning column 212 is inserted into the guide positioning sliding groove 2231 and can slide relative to the guide positioning sliding groove 2231. The guide positioning column 212 can be, but is not limited to, a cylinder or a circular truncated cone, and the guide positioning sliding groove 2231 can be, but is not limited to, a waist-shaped hole groove. When the guide positioning column 212 slides relative to the sliding limiting piece 22 to one end of the guide positioning sliding groove 2231, the sliding limiting piece 22 is located at the locked position; when the guide positioning column 212 slides relative to the sliding limiting piece 22 to the other end of the guide positioning sliding groove 2231, the sliding limiting piece 22 is located at the unlocked position.

[0076] Of course, the positions of the guide positioning column 212 and the guide positioning sliding groove 2231 can also be exchanged, and the sliding process of the sliding limiting piece 22 between the locked position and the unlocked position can also be guided.

[0077] In some exemplary embodiments, in combination with Figure 8 to Figure 11 As shown, the sliding matching part is provided as a sliding groove 2211 extending along the length direction of the sliding rail part 221, and the sliding part is provided as a sliding shaft 321. The sliding shaft 321 is provided to be inserted into or out of the sliding groove 2211 along the width direction of the sliding rail part 221. The sliding limiting piece 22 is provided to slide along the width direction of the sliding rail part 221 between the locked position and the unlocked position. The length direction of the sliding rail part 221 can be perpendicular to the extension direction of the rotation axis of the panel 21, and the width direction of the sliding rail part 221 can be consistent with the extension direction of the rotation axis of the panel 21.

[0078] The guide positioning matching part 223 and the operation part 222 are respectively located on both sides of the width direction of the sliding rail part 221. The elastic piece 23 of the panel assembly 2 includes two elastic arms 231, which are symmetrically provided on both sides of the guide positioning matching part 223 and connected to both ends of the guide positioning matching part 223 along the length direction of the sliding rail part 221.

[0079] Among them, the guide positioning matching part 223 can be roughly in the form of a plate structure. In the length direction of the sliding rail part 221, the length of the guide positioning matching part 223 can be greater than that of the operation part 222 and less than that of the sliding rail part 221. The guide positioning matching part 223 is provided with a guide positioning sliding groove 2231 in the middle part in the length direction of the sliding rail part 221. Both ends of the guide positioning matching part 223 are connected to the two elastic arms 231, respectively, as shown in Figure 7 As shown, the other end of the two elastic arms 231 can be respectively abutted against the limiting part 211 (such as a limiting column 2111) on the panel 21. The part (root) of the elastic arm 231 connected to the guide positioning matching part 223 can be appropriately thickened to improve the strength of the root and reduce the risk of breakage.

[0080] In some exemplary embodiments, the panel 21 is provided with a limiting rib 215, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 The limiting rib 215 is located on the side of the sliding rail part 221 away from the elastic arm 231 and abuts against the sliding rail part 221, so that the elastic arm 231 is in an elastic deformation state when the sliding limiting piece 22 is in the locked position, to limit the sliding part from disengaging from the sliding fitting part. The number of limiting ribs 215 can be two, and the two limiting ribs 215 can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the operation part 222.

[0081] In this way, when the sliding limiting piece 22 is in the locked position, the elastic arm 231 is in a relatively weak elastic deformation state; when the sliding limiting piece 22 is in the unlocked position, the elastic arm 231 is in a relatively strong elastic deformation state. This is conducive to increasing the driving force required to be applied to unlock the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3, thereby facilitating the prevention of the panel assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 from being unlocked by mistake due to misoperation.

[0082] In some embodiments, the elastic arm 231 and the sliding limiting piece 22 are of an integral structure, as shown in Figure 7 The integral structure is a mirror-symmetrical structure, and the symmetry plane vertically bisects the operation part 222, the sliding rail part 221 and the guide positioning fitting part 223.

[0083] In some exemplary embodiments, one end of the panel 21 is provided with a limiting groove 213, as shown in Figure 7 The end of the operation part 222 away from the sliding rail part 221 is provided with a protruding part 2221, and the operation part 222 is arranged to pass through the limiting groove 213, as shown in Figure 7

[0084] Based on the sliding limiting piece 22 being in the locked position, the protruding part 2221 protrudes from the limiting groove 213 and one end of the panel 21. This facilitates user identification of operation.

[0085] The operation part 222 can be arranged to be pressed, and the pressed operation part 222 can slide the sliding limiting piece 22 to the unlocked position under the pressing driving force, and at least partially retract the protruding part 2221 into the limiting groove 213; or the operation part 222 can also be arranged to be pulled, and the pulled operation part 222 can slide the sliding limiting piece 22 to the unlocked position under the pulling action, and increase the length of the protruding part 2221 protruding from the limiting groove 213.

[0086] In some exemplary embodiments, the panel assembly 2 further comprises a decorative plate 24, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 10 and Figure 12 ​The decorative plate 24 is located on the side of the panel 21 close to the driving mechanism 3 and is fixedly connected with the panel 21, and the decorative plate 24 and the panel 21 enclose a containing groove, and a part of the sliding limiting piece 22 is located in the containing groove, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 11 as shown.

[0087] As shown in Figure 4 , the decorative plate 24 is provided with an avoiding groove 241 for avoiding the sliding part. Based on the sliding cooperation piece sliding to the unlocking position: the sliding part corresponds to the avoiding groove 241 (as shown in Figure 12 ), and can pass through the avoiding groove 241 to separate from the panel assembly 2.

[0088] The decorative plate 24 can play a decorative role on the one hand, and can block the sliding limiting piece 22 and other structures (such as the elastic arm 231, the guide positioning cooperation part 223, the limiting part 211 and the guide positioning part of the panel 21 and other structures) when the panel 21 opens the air return port, which is beneficial to improve the appearance of the air conditioner. On the other hand, the decorative plate 24 can also limit the sliding limiting piece 22, which is beneficial to prevent the sliding limiting piece 22 from being warped or even separated from the panel 21, thereby improving the use reliability of the sliding limiting piece 22.

[0089] The area of the decorative plate 24 is smaller than the area of the panel 21, and the area of the decorative plate 24 can be smaller than the area of the air return port, so that the decorative plate 24 can be at least partially embedded in the air return port when the panel 21 is in the closed position.

[0090] In one embodiment, the decorative plate 24 is provided with a connecting hole 243, as shown in Figure 12 , the connecting hole 243 is correspondingly arranged with the limiting column 2111 on the panel 21, and the fastener 244 is fixedly connected with the limiting column 2111 through the connecting hole 243, as shown in Figure 4 , realizing the fixed connection of the decorative plate 24 and the panel 21.

[0091] Of course, the panel assembly 2 can also not include the decorative plate 24, and the position stability and reliability of the sliding limiting piece 22 can be ensured by arranging corresponding structures on the panel 21.

[0092] In some exemplary embodiments, the decorative plate 24 is also provided with a anti-disengagement rib 242, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 . The anti-disengagement rib 242 is located on the side of the slide rail part 221 close to the swing piece 32, and the swing piece 32 is located between the anti-disengagement rib 242 and the slide rail part 221, and is arranged to limit the swing piece 32 to move away from the slide rail part 221.

[0093] The anti-disengagement rib 242 can be substantially a rectangular structure with one end opening 11, as shown in Figure 4, Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the opening 11 faces the slide rail 221. The anti-detachment rib 242 can prevent the swing member 32 from moving in the sliding direction of the sliding limit member 22 and detaching from the sliding limit member 22, thereby improving the positional stability and reliability of the swing member 32.

[0094] In some exemplary embodiments, the anti-detachment rib 242 is provided with an insertion hole 2421, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the operating part 222 passes through the insertion hole 2421. This allows for better limiting of the sliding limit member 22, which helps improve the stability and reliability of the sliding limit member 22.

[0095] In some exemplary embodiments, the number of drive mechanisms 3 is two, such as... Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, there are two sliding limit members 22, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the rotation axis of the panel 21. Two drive mechanisms 3 correspond to the two sliding limit members 22. This facilitates balanced force distribution on the panel assembly 2, thereby improving the reliability of the panel assembly 2.

[0096] In some exemplary embodiments, panel 21 is detachably connected to panel frame 1.

[0097] In this way, once the panel assembly 2 is unlocked from the drive mechanism 3, the entire panel assembly 2 can be removed from the panel frame 1 for easy cleaning and other operations.

[0098] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 14 As shown, one of the panel 21 and the panel frame 1 is provided with a bushing 214, and the other is provided with a rotating shaft 12. The panel 21 is configured to: be movable relative to the panel frame 1 in a first direction, so that the rotating shaft 12 is inserted into the bushing 214 to assemble the panel 21 onto the panel frame 1; and be movable relative to the panel frame 1 in a second direction opposite to the first direction, so that the rotating shaft 12 is disengaged from the bushing 214 to detach the panel 21 from the panel frame 1. Figure 13 The arrow in the image indicates the second direction.

[0099] When it is necessary to disassemble panel assembly 2, a sliding driving force can be applied to the sliding limit member 22 to slide it from the locked position to the unlocked position. The external force can then be removed, causing the sliding post of the swing member 32 to disengage from the sliding groove 2211 of the sliding limit member 22 and exit through the clearance groove 241 of the decorative panel 24, thus unlocking the drive mechanism 3 from the panel assembly 2. Then, panel assembly 2 can be moved along the second direction, such as... Figure 13The faceplate assembly 2 can be disassembled by moving the faceplate assembly 2 along the second direction shown by the arrow in the figure, so that the rotating shaft 12 is pulled out of the shaft sleeve 214.

[0100] Conversely, during installation, the faceplate assembly 2 can be first moved along the first direction, so that the rotating shaft 12 is inserted into the shaft sleeve 214; then a sliding driving force is applied to the sliding limiting piece 22, so that the sliding limiting piece 22 is slid from the locked position to the unlocked position, and the faceplate assembly 2 is rotated until the sliding shaft 321 of the swing piece 32 passes through the avoiding groove 241 of the decorative plate 24 to reach the slot of the sliding groove 2211, and then the external force is removed, so that the sliding limiting piece 22 is automatically reset, the sliding shaft 321 is inserted into the sliding groove 2211, and the assembly of the faceplate assembly 2 and the driving mechanism 3 is realized.

[0101] Of course, the detachable assembly mode between the faceplate frame 1 and the faceplate 21 is not limited to this. For example, the faceplate frame 1 and the faceplate 21 can also be provided with shaft sleeves 214. The assembly of the faceplate frame 1 and the faceplate 21 is realized by inserting the rotating shaft 12 independent of the faceplate frame 1 and the faceplate 21 into the shaft sleeves 214 of the faceplate frame 1 and the faceplate 21, and the faceplate assembly 2 is disassembled from the faceplate frame 1 by pulling out the rotating shaft 12.

[0102] In some exemplary embodiments, the number of the rotating shaft 12 and the shaft sleeve 214 is multiple, the multiple rotating shafts 12 and the multiple shaft sleeves 214 are correspondingly arranged, and the distance between adjacent shaft sleeves 214 is greater than the length of the rotating shaft 12, as shown in Figure 14 .

[0103] In this way, the movement range of the faceplate assembly 2 during disassembly can be reduced, and the operation difficulty of the operator can be reduced.

[0104] In some exemplary embodiments, the faceplate frame 1 is further provided with a anti-disassembly fitting piece, which has a locked state and an unlocked state.

[0105] Based on the locked state of the anti-disassembly fitting piece, the anti-disassembly fitting piece limits the movement of the faceplate 21 along the second direction to limit the rotating shaft 12 from being pulled out of the shaft sleeve 214. Based on the unlocked state of the anti-disassembly fitting piece, the limiting piece releases the limitation on the faceplate 21, so that the faceplate 21 can move along the second direction to make the rotating shaft 12 pulled out of the shaft sleeve 214.

[0106] The anti-disassembly fitting piece can prevent the faceplate assembly 2 from falling off due to the rotating shaft 12 being pulled out of the shaft sleeve 214 in a natural state. The anti-disassembly fitting piece can be, but is not limited to, a buckle, a snap buckle, a lock buckle, etc.

[0107] In one embodiment, one end of the faceplate 21 is provided with multiple shaft sleeves 214, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the plurality of shaft sleeves 214 are integrally formed with the panel 21. The panel 21 can further be provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs to reinforce the shaft sleeves 214. The plurality of rotating shafts 12 and the anti-disengagement limiting piece 13 are integrally formed with the panel frame 1. The anti-disengagement limiting piece 13 is a buckle, such as Figure 14 As shown, when the anti-disengagement limiting piece is in the locked state, the anti-disengagement limiting piece is located on the other side of the insertion opening of the shaft sleeve 214 to limit the movement of the shaft sleeve 214 in the direction of disengaging the rotating shaft 12 (i.e., the second direction). By bending the buckle upwards, the buckle can be deviated from the movement direction of the shaft sleeve 214 to the unlocked state, and the panel assembly 2 can be moved in the second direction and disassembled.

[0108] Conversely, when installing, the buckle can also be bent until the rotating shaft 12 is inserted into the shaft sleeve 214 to realize the assembly of the panel assembly 2 and the support of the panel frame 1.

[0109] The number of anti-disengagement limiting pieces 13 can be one or multiple. When there is one, the operation difficulty of the operator can be reduced, and the disassembly convenience of the panel assembly 2 can be improved.
