Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning equipment technology, and in particular to an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, a radar module is often provided in the casing assembly of an air conditioner. The radar module is located inside the casing assembly and is used to realize the sensing function of the air conditioner. The radar module works with other components of the air conditioner to realize the intelligent control of the air conditioner. The radar module includes a radar box and a radar component. The radar component is located inside the radar box and is connected to a radar harness. The radar box has a cable outlet to facilitate the lead-out of the radar harness.
[0003] However, the connection method of radar modules and radar components in related technologies is limited. For example, when the radar harness is subjected to external tension, it is easy for the harness to detach from the radar component. Related technologies often use secondary potting to fix the radar harness inside the radar box, which increases the assembly process within the box, making the assembly more complex. Furthermore, the secondary potting makes subsequent replacement or maintenance of the radar module more difficult. Therefore, this issue needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one object of this invention is to provide an air conditioner in which a first wiring structure is provided on the outer surface of a radar box. This first wiring structure can restrict the radar wire harness to run along a predetermined wiring path on the outer surface of the radar box. By having at least some adjacent wiring segments with an included angle ranging from 5° to 150°, the force exerted on the radar wire harness by external tension can be distributed to different directions, thereby reducing or avoiding excessive tension on the radar wire harness in a single direction. This effectively reduces the possibility of the radar wire harness being directly pulled off by external tension.

[0071] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0072] The following is for reference. Figures 1-20 An air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0073] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 7 , Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to an embodiment of the present invention, an air conditioner 100 includes a housing assembly 10, a heat exchange and air supply assembly, and a functional assembly 30. The housing assembly 10 has an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 121. The heat exchange and air supply assembly is disposed within the housing assembly 10 and may include a heat exchanger component and a fan component. For example, the air inlet 111 is formed on the rear side of the housing assembly 10, and the air outlet 121 is formed on the left and right sides of the housing assembly 10. The heat exchange and air supply assembly is located between the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 121. When the air conditioner 100 is working, the airflow enters the housing assembly 10 through the air inlet 111 and flows towards the heat exchange and air supply assembly. The air that has been heated by the heat exchange and air supply assembly can be blown out to the room through the air outlet 121 to cool or heat the room.
[0074] Functional component 30 is disposed in housing component 10 and includes radar module 31a. Radar module 31a includes radar box 31 and radar component 33. Radar component 33 is disposed in radar box 31 and connected to radar harness 331. Radar box 31 forms a first outlet 311 for radar harness 331 to exit. The outer surface of radar box 31 includes a first surface 312. A first wiring structure 313 is provided on the first surface 312. The first wiring structure 313 is used to restrict the radar harness 331 to run on the first surface 312 according to a set wiring path. The set wiring path includes multiple wiring segments connected in sequence. The included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments is in the range of 5° to 150°.
[0075] The radar module 31a enables the automatic sensing function of the air conditioner 100, facilitating its integration with other components of the air conditioner 100 (such as the air guide plate 51) to achieve intelligent control of the air conditioner 100. The radar box 31 provides support and protection for the radar assembly 33, preventing damage to the radar assembly 33 due to external impacts.
[0076] The radar module 31a can sense the user's location and automatically adjust the direction or speed of the air blown by the air conditioner 100, or control the air conditioner 100 to turn on or off, in order to save energy and improve the user experience. For example, when the radar module 31a senses that no one is in the room, it can control the air conditioner 100 to turn off or enter energy-saving mode; when the radar module 31a senses that someone is in the room, it can control the air conditioner 100 to automatically adjust to a preset mode based on the sensed user's location.
[0077] By setting a first wiring structure 313 on the first surface 312 of the radar box 31, the radar wire harness 331 can be routed according to the set wiring path, which can effectively prevent the radar wire harness 331 from getting tangled with other wire harnesses, making it easier for later maintenance and troubleshooting.
[0078] Furthermore, by setting the wiring path to include multiple wiring segments connected in sequence, the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments is in the range of 5° to 150°. For example, the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments can be 5°, 20°, 40°, 70°, 90°, 110°, 120°, 150°, etc. By setting the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments to the range of 5° to 150°, the force exerted on the radar wire harness 331 by external tension can be dispersed, thereby reducing or avoiding excessive tension on the radar wire harness 331 in a single direction. This can effectively reduce the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 being directly pulled off by external tension.
[0079] For example, when the angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments approaches 0°, the radar harness 331 is pulled almost in a straight line when subjected to force. This causes the external tension to concentrate at the connection between the radar harness 331 and the radar assembly 33, which can easily lead to the radar harness 331 being pulled directly from the connection. By having the angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments range from 5° to 150°, and the radar harness 331 within at least some adjacent wiring segments having a certain angle, the force exerted on the radar harness 331 by the external tension can be dispersed, thereby reducing or avoiding excessive tension on the radar harness 331 in a single direction. This effectively reduces the possibility of the radar harness 331 being directly pulled off by external tension.
[0080] In addition, by restricting the routing path of the radar harness 331 through the first wiring structure 313, the radar harness 331 can be more stably fixed to the radar box 31. Compared with additionally fixing the radar harness 331 to the radar box 31 by potting glue, this makes the assembly process of the radar harness 331 on the radar box 31 simpler and helps to improve assembly efficiency.
[0081] According to an embodiment of the air conditioner 100 of the present invention, the outer surface of the radar box 31 is provided with a first wiring structure 313. The first wiring structure 313 can restrict the radar wire harness 331 to be routed on the outer surface of the radar box 31 according to a set wiring path. By having at least some of the included angles between two adjacent wiring segments in the range of 5° to 150°, the force exerted by external tension on the radar wire harness 331 can be distributed to different directions, thereby reducing or avoiding excessive tension on the radar wire harness 331 in a single direction. This can effectively reduce the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 being directly pulled off by external tension. Furthermore, by restricting the wiring path of the radar wire harness 331 by the first wiring structure 313, the assembly process of the radar wire harness 331 on the radar box 31 can be made simpler, which is beneficial to improving assembly efficiency.
[0082] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the included angle between at least some adjacent two routing segments is in the range of 60° to 120°. This included situations where the included angle between at least some adjacent two routing segments is in the range of 60° to 120°; or, for example, where the included angle between all adjacent two routing segments is in the range of 60° to 120°.
[0083] For example, the included angle between at least some adjacent two wiring segments can be 60°, 70°, 90°, 110°, 120°, etc. By having an included angle between at least some adjacent two wiring segments not less than 60°, the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 breaking or its surface being damaged due to excessive bending stress at the bends of adjacent two wiring segments can be reduced or avoided. By having an included angle between at least some adjacent two wiring segments not greater than 120°, the force exerted on the radar wire harness 331 by external tension can be effectively dispersed, thereby reducing or avoiding the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 falling off due to excessive tension in a single direction.
[0084] By setting the included angle between at least some of the adjacent wiring segments to a range of 60° to 120°, the possibility of the radar wiring harness 331 falling off due to external pulling force can be effectively reduced or avoided. At the same time, the possibility of the radar wiring harness 331 breaking or its surface being damaged due to excessive bending stress at the bends of the adjacent wiring segments can be avoided.
[0085] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments is in the range of 80° to 100°. For example, the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments can be 80°, 85°, 90°, 95°, 100°, etc. By having the included angle between at least some adjacent wiring segments in the range of 80° to 100°, the anti-pull-out effect of the radar wire harness 331 on the outer surface of the radar box 31 and the bending stress of the radar wire harness 331 at the bend between adjacent wiring segments can be better balanced. This reduces the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 falling off due to external pulling force, and also reduces the possibility of the radar wire harness 331 breaking or its surface being damaged.
[0086] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the outer surface of the radar box 31 includes a second surface 314, and a first outlet 311 is formed on the second surface 314. The second surface 314 and the first surface 312 are located on different sides of the radar box 31 and are disposed adjacent to the first surface 312. The first outlet 311 facilitates the exit of the radar wiring harness 331 from the inside of the radar box 31 for electrical connection with other components.
[0087] The multiple wiring segments include adjacent first wiring segment 332 and second wiring segment 333. The first wiring segment 332 extends from the connection point of the first surface 312 and the second surface 314 along a first direction toward a direction away from the second surface 314. The second wiring segment 333 extends along a second direction, and there is an angle between the second direction and the first direction. Because there is an angle between the first direction and the second direction, there is also an angle between the first wiring segment 332 and the second wiring segment 333. When the radar wire bundle 331 is routed along the first wiring segment 332 and the second wiring segment 333, a certain angle can be formed between the radar wire bundles 331 corresponding to the first wiring segment 332 and the second wiring segment 333. This can disperse the force exerted on the radar wire bundle 331 by external tension, thereby reducing or avoiding excessive tension on the radar wire bundle 331 in a single direction. This can effectively reduce the possibility of the radar wire bundle 331 being directly pulled off by external tension.
[0088] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19According to some embodiments of the present invention, the multiple trace segments further include a third trace segment 334 and a fourth trace segment 335. The third trace segment 334 is connected between the second trace segment 333 and the fourth trace segment 335. The third trace segment 334 extends along a first direction and toward a direction close to the second surface 314. The fourth trace segment 335 extends along a second direction and extends beyond the outer contour of the first surface 312. Because there is an angle between the first direction and the second direction, the third routing segment 334 extends along the first direction and the fourth routing segment 335 extends along the second direction, so that there is an angle between the second routing segment 333 and the third routing segment 334, and an angle between the third routing segment 334 and the fourth routing segment 335. When the radar wire harness 331 is routed along the third routing segment 334 and the fourth routing segment 335, a certain angle can be formed between the radar wire harness 331 corresponding to the second routing segment 333 and the third routing segment 334, and a certain angle can be formed between the radar wire harness 331 corresponding to the third routing segment 334 and the fourth routing segment 335. This can disperse the force exerted on the radar wire harness 331 by external tension, so as to reduce or avoid the radar wire harness 331 bearing excessive tension in a single direction. This can further reduce the possibility that the radar wire harness 331 will be directly pulled off by external tension.
[0089] In addition, the third wiring segment 334 extends toward the direction close to the second surface 314, and the fourth wiring segment 335 extends beyond the outer contour of the first surface 312, which facilitates the outward routing of the radar wiring harness 331 for electrical connection with other components.
[0090] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first wiring structure 313 includes a first wiring buckle 315, a second wiring buckle 316, a first wiring post 317, a second wiring post 318, and a third wiring post 319. The first wiring buckle 315 and the second wiring buckle 316 are arranged at intervals along a first direction. The first wiring buckle 315 is closer to the second surface 314 than the second wiring buckle 316. The first wiring post 317 and the second wiring post 318 are distributed on opposite sides of the second wiring buckle 316 along a second direction and are spaced apart from the second wiring buckle 316. The third wiring post 319 is spaced apart from the second wiring post 318 along the second direction.
[0091] The first wiring segment 332 runs along the gap between the first wiring buckle 315 and the second wiring buckle 316 and the first wiring post 317. The second wiring segment 333 runs along the second wiring buckle 316. The third wiring segment 334 runs along the gap between the second wiring buckle 316 and the second wiring post 318. The fourth wiring segment 335 runs along the gap between the second wiring post 318 and the third wiring post 319.
[0092] The first wiring clip 315 can limit the radar wire harness 331 in the first wiring segment 332 to ensure that the radar wire harness 331 is routed along the first wiring segment 332. The gap between the second wiring clip 316 and the first wiring post 317 can facilitate the radar wire harness 331 in the first wiring segment 332 to route towards the second wiring segment 333. The first wiring post 317 can also limit the radar wire harness 331 in the first wiring segment 332 to prevent the radar wire harness 331 from routing towards other areas on the outer surface of the radar box 31.
[0093] The second wiring clip 316 can limit the radar wire harness 331 within the second wiring segment 333 to ensure that the radar wire harness 331 is routed along the second wiring segment 333.
[0094] The gap between the second wiring clip 316 and the second wiring post 318 facilitates the routing of the radar wire harness 331 within the third wiring segment 334. The second wiring post 318 can also limit the radar wire harness 331 within the third wiring segment 334 to prevent the radar wire harness 331 from routing towards other areas on the outer surface of the radar box 31.
[0095] The gap between the second wiring post 318 and the third wiring post 319 facilitates the routing of the radar wire harness 331 within the fourth wiring segment 335 and also limits the radar wire harness 331 within the fourth wiring segment 335 to prevent the radar wire harness 331 from routing towards other areas on the outer surface of the radar box 31.
[0096] The first wiring structure 313 includes a first wiring clip 315, a second wiring clip 316, a first wiring post 317, a second wiring post 318, and a third wiring post 319. Through the gap fit between the multiple wiring posts and wiring clips, the radar wire harness 331 can be limited in multiple directions on the first surface 312 of the radar box 31 to ensure that the radar wire harness 331 is routed according to the set wiring path and to prevent the radar wire harness 331 from swinging or deviating arbitrarily on the first surface 312 of the radar box 31.
[0097] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 16According to some embodiments of the present invention, the functional component 30 includes a mounting box 35 and a display module 37. The display module 37 is disposed in the mounting box 35 and includes a display circuit board 371. A radar harness 331 is connected to the display circuit board 371, and a display harness 372 is connected to the display circuit board 371. The display harness 372 is connected to the electrical control box component 16 of the air conditioner 100. A second cable outlet 351 is formed on the mounting box 35, through which the display harness 372 exits. The display module 37 is used to realize the display function of the air conditioner 100, facilitating user operation and viewing of information such as the operating mode, temperature, and fan speed of the air conditioner 100. The mounting box 35 provides support and protection for the display module 37, preventing damage to the display module 37 due to external impacts. Furthermore, the mounting box 35 facilitates the assembly of the display module 37, resulting in a compact overall structure for the display module 37 and the mounting box 35.
[0098] The second outlet 351 facilitates the exit of the display wiring harness 372 from the mounting box 35, enabling the display wiring harness 372 to connect to the electrical control box component 16. By connecting the display circuit board 371 and the electrical control box component 16 via the display wiring harness 372, an electrical connection between the display circuit board 371 and the electrical control box component 16 can be indirectly achieved, enabling the electrical control box component 16 to supply power and transmit information to the display circuit board 371. Furthermore, by connecting the radar wiring harness 331 to the display circuit board 371, an electrical connection between the radar component 33 and the electrical control box component 16 can be indirectly achieved, enabling the electrical control box component 16 to supply power and transmit information to the radar component 33.
[0099] Reference Figure 16 and Figure 19 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the radar module 31a is disposed within the mounting box 35, and the radar wiring harness 331 is routed within the mounting box 35, with at least a portion of the radar wiring harness 331 routed along one side of the display circuit board 371 in the left-right direction. The routing of at least a portion of the radar wiring harness 331 along one side of the display circuit board 371 in the left-right direction can include the following: for example, a portion of the radar wiring harness 331 may route along one side of the display circuit board 371 in the left-right direction; or, for another example, the entire radar wiring harness 331 may route along one side of the display circuit board 371 in the left-right direction.
[0100] By routing at least a portion of the radar harness 331 along one side of the display circuit board 371 in the left-right direction, the disorderly distribution of the radar harness 331 within the mounting box 35 is avoided, reducing the possibility of interference between the radar harness 331 and other components (such as the display harness 372) within the mounting box 35, which is beneficial for layout optimization within the mounting box 35.
[0101] Reference Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 20 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a radar module 31a is disposed within a mounting box 35. The mounting box 35 has a mounting groove 352, within which the radar module 31a is accommodated. A plurality of first limiting buckles 353 are provided on the open side of the mounting groove 352, spaced circumferentially along the groove. The first limiting buckles 353 abut against the side of the radar module 31a facing the open side. The mounting groove 352 facilitates the assembly of the radar module 31a onto the mounting box 35 and allows for a more compact overall structure of the radar module 31a and the mounting box 35. The first limiting buckle 353 abuts against the side of the radar module 31a facing the open opening, which can limit the radar module 31a to reduce or avoid the possibility of the radar module 31a moving towards the open opening due to external impact or vibration. In addition, multiple first limiting buckles 353 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the mounting groove 352, which can limit the radar module 31a at multiple positions along the circumference of the mounting groove 352. This can make the radar module 31a more stably accommodated in the mounting groove 352.
[0102] In addition, compared to fixing the radar module 31a to the mounting box 35 with fasteners, the first limiting buckle 353 abuts against the side of the radar module 31a facing the open opening, which can reduce the number of parts and help reduce manufacturing costs.
[0103] In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0104] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 18 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the radar module 31a is disposed within the mounting box 35, and the mounting box 35 is provided with a mounting slot 352. The radar module 31a is accommodated within the mounting slot 352, and the opening of the mounting slot 352 faces forward. By having the opening of the mounting slot 352 face forward and the radar module 31a accommodated within the mounting slot 352, the radar module 31a can be oriented forward, thereby improving the radar module 31a's ability to identify the location of a user located in front of the air conditioner 100.
[0105] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12According to some embodiments of the present invention, the housing assembly 10 is provided with a first slot 141 and a first fixing post 15. The first slot 141 and the first fixing post 15 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the mounting box 35. The upper and lower sides of the mounting box 35 are respectively provided with a first pin 354 and a first fixing hole 355. The first pin 354 is inserted upward into the first slot 141, and a first fastener passes through the first fixing hole 355 and the first fixing post 15. For example, the housing assembly 10 is provided with a plugging protrusion 14, and the first slot 141 is formed in the plugging protrusion 14. The first slot 141 facilitates the insertion of the first pin 354, and the first fixing post 15 guides the assembly of the mounting box 35 on the housing assembly 10, ensuring accurate positioning of the mounting box 35 on the housing assembly 10. The first pin 354 is inserted upward into the first slot 141, and the first fastener passes through the first fixing post 15 and the first fixing hole 355 on the lower side of the mounting box 35. This simplifies the connection between the mounting box 35 and the housing assembly 10 and provides strong stability. It also allows the mounting box 35 to be more stably fixed on the housing assembly 10, reducing or preventing relative movement between the mounting box 35 and the housing assembly 10 in the vertical direction.
[0106] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 10 , Figure 16 and Figure 17 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a positioning sleeve 356 is formed around the outer periphery of the first fixing hole 355. The positioning sleeve 356 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first fixing post 15, which can further guide the assembly of the mounting box 35 on the housing assembly 10. By sleeved on the outer periphery of the first fixing post 15, the assembly position of the mounting box 35 on the housing assembly 10 can be more accurate.
[0107] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 12 and Figure 18 The housing assembly 10 is provided with multiple second limiting buckles 17, which are distributed on the left and right sides of the mounting box 35. The outer periphery of the mounting box 35 has a limiting protrusion 360, and the second limiting buckles 17 abut against the rear side of the limiting protrusion 360. The limiting protrusion 360 can enhance the overall structural strength of the mounting box 35 to a certain extent, and the second limiting buckles 17 can limit the mounting box 35. By having multiple second limiting buckles 17 abut against the rear side of the limiting protrusion 360, the mounting box 35 can be more stably fixed to the housing assembly 10, reducing or preventing the possibility of relative movement between the mounting box 35 and the housing assembly 10 in the front-back or left-right directions.
[0108] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the second outlet 351 is located on the bottom surface of the mounting box 35. The housing assembly 10 also includes a terminal block electrically connected to the electrical control box component 16. The terminal block is located above the heat exchange and air supply assembly and above the display module 37. The display wiring harness 372 runs upwards from the back of the mounting box 35 to connect with the terminal block. By placing the second outlet 351 on the bottom surface of the mounting box 35 and allowing the display wiring harness 372 to run upwards from the back of the mounting box 35 to the terminal block located above the heat exchange and air supply assembly, the vertical space inside the air conditioner 100 is fully utilized, resulting in a more compact and orderly layout of the terminal block and the heat exchange and air supply assembly. This also prevents interference between the display wiring harness 372 and other components.
[0109] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 18 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the back of the mounting box 35 is provided with a plurality of third wiring clips 357 spaced apart in the vertical direction, and at least some adjacent third wiring clips 357 have opposite openings in the horizontal direction, indicating that the wiring harness 372 is routed along the plurality of third wiring clips 357. The opposite openings of at least some adjacent third wiring clips 357 in the horizontal direction can include the following situations: for example, some adjacent third wiring clips 357 may have opposite openings in the horizontal direction; or, for example, all adjacent third wiring clips 357 may have opposite openings in the horizontal direction.
[0110] Multiple third wiring clips 357, spaced apart along the vertical direction, can limit the display wiring harness 372 to ensure that the display wiring harness 372 is routed vertically. By having at least some adjacent third wiring clips 357 with opposite openings in the left-right direction, the wiring of the display wiring harness 372 can be limited in the left-right direction, reducing or avoiding the possibility of the display wiring harness 372 deviating from the predetermined routing path in the left-right direction. This allows the display wiring harness 372 to be held more stably on the back of the mounting box 35.
[0111] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the functional component 30 further includes a voice component 39, which includes at least one of a microphone module 391 and a speaker module 394, and the voice component 39 is electrically connected to the display circuit board 371.
[0112] For example, the voice component 39 includes a microphone component, which can control various commands of the air conditioner 100 through voice commands, thereby enhancing the intelligence of the air conditioner 100 and improving the user experience.
[0113] For example, the voice component 39 includes a speaker module 394, which enables the air conditioner 100 to convey relevant information to the user through the speaker. This allows the user to understand the operating status of the air conditioner 100 more intuitively, forming a two-way interactive experience that helps improve the user's experience.
[0114] The voice component 39 is electrically connected to the display circuit board 371, and the display circuit board 371 is connected to the electrical control box component 16 of the air conditioner 100. This indirectly enables the electrical connection between the voice component 39 and the electrical control box component 16, thereby enabling the electrical control box component 16 to supply power to the voice component 39 and transmit information.
[0115] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the voice component 39 is located above the display module 37 and is connected to the upper end of the display circuit board 371. While providing power to the voice component 39 and transmitting information, since the voice component 39 is located above the display module 37, for example, the voice component 39 is connected to the display circuit board 371 via a first voice harness 392, and the connection between the voice component 39 and the upper end of the display circuit board 371 can reduce the length of the first voice harness 392 between the voice component 39 and the display circuit board 371.
[0116] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the voice component 39 includes a microphone module 391, a first voice harness 392 connected between the microphone module 391 and the display circuit board 371, and a third outlet 358 formed on the upper part of the mounting box 35. The first voice harness 392 exits through the third outlet 358, which is formed on the side wall of the mounting box 35 in the left-right direction. The third outlet 358 is close to the upper part of the mounting box 35, which facilitates the exit of the first voice harness 392 and allows the length of the first voice harness 392 to be as short as possible. Furthermore, if the third outlet 358 were formed on the side wall of the top of the mounting box 35, water might enter the interior of the mounting box 35 through the third outlet 358. By forming the third outlet 358 on the side wall of the mounting box 35 in the left-right direction, the possibility of water directly entering the mounting box 35 through the third outlet 358 due to its own gravity can be reduced or avoided.
[0117] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 11According to some embodiments of the present invention, the outer surface of the mounting box 35 is provided with a wire-blocking rib 359, which is located on the outer periphery of the third cable outlet 358. The wire-blocking rib 359 can enhance the overall structural strength of the mounting box 35 to a certain extent. The wire-blocking rib 359 can limit the first voice cable harness 392, so that the first voice cable harness 392 is routed according to a predetermined routing path. It can also make the first voice cable harness 392 close to the outer surface of the mounting box 35, thereby reducing the space occupied by the first voice cable harness 392 in the left and right direction. It can also reduce or avoid interference between the first voice cable harness 392 and other cable harnesses due to excessive protrusion of the first voice cable harness 392 from the outer surface of the mounting box 35.
[0118] In some embodiments, the wire-blocking rib 359 is an elastic element. When the diameter of the cross-section of the first voice cable 392 is large, at least a portion of the wire-blocking rib 359 undergoes elastic deformation, causing at least a portion of the wire-blocking rib 359 to move away from the outer surface of the mounting box 35. This allows the first voice cable 392 to pass through the gap between the wire-blocking rib 359 and the outer surface of the mounting box 35. After the first voice cable 392 passes through the wire-blocking rib 359, the wire-blocking rib 359 can recover towards the outer surface of the mounting box 35 due to the elastic restoring force. This can press the first voice cable 392, making the first voice cable 392 more stably fixed to the outer surface of the mounting box 35.
[0119] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the voice component 39 includes a speaker module 394, and a second voice harness 395 is connected between the speaker module 394 and the display circuit board 371. The second voice harness 395 exits through a second outlet 351. The second voice harness 395 can indirectly realize the electrical connection between the speaker module 394 and the display circuit board 371, so as to realize the power supply and information transmission of the speaker module 394 by the display circuit board 371. The second outlet 351 facilitates the exit of the second voice harness 395 from the mounting box 35 for connection with the speaker module 394.
[0120] In some embodiments, the second outlet 351 is located on the bottom surface of the mounting box 35. The housing assembly 10 also includes a terminal block electrically connected to the electrical control box component 16. The terminal block is located above the heat exchange and air supply assembly and above the display module 37. The display wiring harness 372 runs upwards from the back of the mounting box 35 to connect with the terminal block. The second voice wiring harness 395 runs upwards from the back of the mounting box 35 to connect with the speaker module 394. Both the second voice wiring harness 395 and the display wiring harness 372 exit from the second outlet 351 and run upwards from the back of the mounting box 35 to connect with the terminal block or speaker module 394. This fully utilizes the relatively concentrated area on the back of the mounting box 35 for wiring, making the wiring on the back of the mounting box 35 more organized and preventing the display wiring harness 372 and the second voice wiring harness 395 from occupying too much space due to different wiring paths. This is beneficial for optimizing the internal layout of the housing assembly 10.
[0121] Furthermore, the back of the mounting box 35 is provided with a plurality of third wiring clips 357 spaced apart in the vertical direction. At least some adjacent third wiring clips 357 have opposite openings in the horizontal direction. The second voice harness 395 is routed along the plurality of third wiring clips 357. The third wiring clips 357 can simultaneously limit the display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 to ensure that the display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 are routed in the vertical direction. By having at least some adjacent third wiring clips 357 have opposite openings in the horizontal direction, the routing of the display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 can be limited in the horizontal direction, reducing or avoiding the possibility that the display harness 372 or the second voice harness 395 deviates from the predetermined routing path in the horizontal direction. This allows the display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 to be more stably held on the back of the mounting box 35.
[0122] In addition, when the operator assembles the various components of the air conditioner 100, the display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 both exit from the second outlet 351 and are routed from the back of the mounting box 35 along multiple third wiring clips 357. This eliminates the need to find different outlet positions and routing paths separately. The display harness 372 and the second voice harness 395 can exit from the second outlet 351 and be routed along the third wiring clips 357, which simplifies the operation process and improves assembly efficiency.
[0123] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 16According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioner further includes an air guide assembly 50 and a drive motor assembly 60. The air guide assembly 50 is disposed on the housing assembly 10 and is used to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 121. The drive motor assembly 60 includes at least one drive motor and is used to drive the air guide assembly 50 to move. The drive motor is connected to a motor harness 611, which is connected to a display circuit board 371. The air guide assembly 50 is disposed on the housing assembly 10 and is used to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 121. Combined with the driving action of the drive motor assembly 60, the air conditioner 100 can precisely change the air outlet direction according to user needs or internally preset programs. For example, in different usage scenarios, such as during cooling, the air can be directed upwards to avoid cold air blowing directly on the body and causing discomfort; during heating, the air can be directed downwards to allow hot air to circulate better indoors and improve the overall temperature uniformity of the room. By driving the air guide assembly 50 to move, the air outlet direction of the air outlet 121 can be flexibly adjusted, improving user comfort.
[0124] The motor wiring harness 611 is connected to the display circuit board 371, which indirectly realizes the electrical connection between the drive motor and the display circuit board 371, so as to realize the control of the drive motor by the display circuit board 371. For example, the user can make operation settings through the display module 37, select a specific air outlet mode (such as automatic swing, directional air supply, etc.) on the display module 37. After receiving the corresponding command, the display circuit board 371 transmits the control signal to the drive motor through the motor wiring harness 611. The drive motor then drives the air guide component 50 to move according to the set requirements to adjust the air outlet 121.
[0125] In some embodiments, the air guide assembly 50 may include an air guide plate 51 and a louver mechanism 52. The air guide plate 51 is disposed at the air outlet 121 for opening and closing the air outlet 121. The rotation axis of the air guide plate 51 extends in the vertical direction. The air guide plate 51 can also adjust the air outlet direction. The louver mechanism is disposed inside the housing assembly 10 and adjacent to the air outlet 121. The louver mechanism 52 may include a plurality of louvers arranged vertically. Each louver can swing up and down. The drive motor assembly 60 includes a drive motor for driving the air guide plate 51 to rotate and a drive motor for driving the louver mechanism 52 to move. The drive motor for driving the air guide plate 51 to rotate is a first drive motor, and the drive motor for driving the louver mechanism 52 to move is a second drive motor 61.
[0126] By rotating the air guide plate 51 along its axis in the vertical direction, the air guide plate 51 can open and close the air outlet 121. When the air outlet 121 is open, the airflow direction of the air outlet 121 can be adjusted in the left and right directions by adjusting the rotation amplitude of the air guide plate 51. Furthermore, the airflow direction can be adjusted in the vertical direction by the oscillation of the louvers. The air guide plate 51 is driven to rotate by the first drive motor, and the louver mechanism 52 is driven to rotate by the second drive motor 61, which allows for separate control of the air guide plate 51 and the louver mechanism 52, enhancing the flexibility of adjusting the airflow direction of the air outlet 121.
[0127] For example, users can control the opening, closing and rotation of the air guide plate 51 independently, adjust the angle of the louvers in the louver mechanism 52 independently, and coordinate the air guide plate 51 and the louver mechanism 52 according to actual needs, so as to achieve more diversified air outlet directions.
[0128] Reference Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the motor wiring harness 611 has a plug-in terminal that plugs into the display circuit board 371. Directly plugging the plug-in terminal of the motor wiring harness 611 into the display circuit board 371 improves the reliability of the electrical connection between the motor wiring harness 611 and the display circuit board 371, reduces the number of additional plug-in terminals used, improves assembly efficiency, and reduces the reduction in the reliability of the electrical connection between the motor wiring harness 611 and the display circuit board 371 due to loose connections at the plug-in terminals.
[0129] Reference Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the motor wiring harness 611 exits through the second outlet 351, which facilitates the exit of the motor wiring harness 611 inside the mounting box 35 for electrical connection with the drive motor.
[0130] In some embodiments, the air conditioner 100 includes a voice component 39, which includes a speaker module 394. A second voice harness 395 is connected between the speaker module 394 and the display circuit board 371. The second voice harness 395 exits through a second outlet 351. The display circuit board 371 is connected to a display harness 372, which is connected to the electrical control box component 16 of the air conditioner 100. The display harness 372 exits through the second outlet 351. For example, when the operator assembles the various components of the air conditioner 100, the motor harness 611, the display harness 372, and the second voice harness 395 all exit from the second outlet 351. This eliminates the need to find different exit positions separately. Simultaneously, the motor harness 611, the display harness 372, and the second voice harness 395 can all exit from the second outlet 351, which simplifies the operation process and improves assembly efficiency.
[0131] Reference Figure 16 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the radar module 31a is disposed within the mounting box 35 and is located below the display module 37. The second cable outlet 351 is formed at the bottom of the mounting box 35. The portion of the motor wiring harness 611 located within the mounting box 35 is the box-in-box wiring harness 612, and at least a portion of the box-in-box wiring harness 612 is located on the outer periphery of the radar module 31a. Wherein, at least a portion of the box-in-box wiring harness 612 is located on the outer periphery of the radar module 31a can include the following situations: for example, a portion of the box-in-box wiring harness 612 may be located on the outer periphery of the radar module 31a; or, for another example, all of the box-in-box wiring harness 612 may be located on the outer periphery of the radar module 31a.
[0132] By placing the radar module 31a inside the mounting box 35 and below the display module 37, with the second cable outlet 351 at the bottom of the mounting box 35, this layout fully utilizes the vertical space of the mounting box 35, achieving a partitioned arrangement of the radar module 31a and the display module 37. This makes the internal structure of the mounting box 35 more compact and orderly, and also prevents interference between the display module 37 and the radar module 31a. Furthermore, by ensuring that the motor wiring harness 611's internal wiring harness 612 is at least partially located on the outer periphery of the radar module 31a, the gap between the outer periphery of the radar module 31a and the inner wall of the mounting box 35 is further utilized, improving the utilization rate of the internal space of the mounting box 35.
[0133] Furthermore, the mounting box 35 is provided with a mounting groove 352, in which the radar module 31a is accommodated. The open side of the mounting groove 352 is provided with a plurality of first limiting buckles 353, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the mounting groove 352. The first limiting buckles 353 abut against the side of the radar module 31a facing the open side. The open side of the mounting groove 352 and the side away from the radar module 31a are provided with a fourth wiring buckle 361. At least a portion of the wiring harness 612 inside the box of the motor wiring harness 611 is routed along the fourth wiring buckle 361. The fourth wiring buckle 361 can limit the wiring harness 612 inside the box that is routed along the outer periphery of the radar module 31a, so as to ensure that at least a portion of the wiring harness 612 inside the box is routed along the outer periphery of the radar module 31a. This can reduce or prevent the wiring harness 612 inside the box from getting tangled with other wiring harnesses.
[0134] Reference Figure 16According to some embodiments of the present invention, the display circuit board 371 is provided with a first connection area 373 and a second connection area 374. The first connection area 373 and the second connection area 374 are located at the upper and lower ends of the display circuit board 371. The first connection area 373 may be located above the second connection area 374. The first connection area 373 is provided with a first connector 375 and a second connector 376. The radar harness 331 is connected to the first connector 375, and the voice harness is connected to the second connector 376. The second connection area 374 is provided with a third connector 377 and a fourth connector 378. The motor harness 611 is connected to the third connector 377, and the display harness 372 is connected to the fourth connector 378.
[0135] The first connection area 373 and the second connection area 374 are divided on the display circuit board 371 and are located at the upper and lower ends respectively. During the assembly process, the corresponding plug of the wire harness can be found quickly and accurately, reducing or avoiding misoperation caused by confusion of connection positions, improving the accuracy of wiring and connection and assembly efficiency, and also facilitating later maintenance and troubleshooting.
[0136] By connecting the wiring harnesses with different functions to different connectors located at the top and bottom, the wiring harnesses can naturally form a more orderly path as they extend outward from the display circuit board 371, avoiding the messy convergence and crossing of wiring harnesses around the circuit board. For example, the voice wiring harness can be routed along the upper part of the mounting box 35 after being led out from the second connector 376 in the upper first connection area 373, and the display wiring harness 372 can be routed along the back of the mounting box 35 after being led out from the lower second connection area 374. This makes the wiring harness layout inside the mounting box 35 and connected to the outside more orderly, improves space utilization, and reduces the possibility of mutual interference between wiring harnesses.
[0137] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7According to some embodiments of the present invention, the housing assembly 10 includes a rear housing component 11 and a front housing component 12. An air outlet 121 is formed on the front housing component 12, and an air inlet 111 is formed on the rear housing component 11. The front housing component 12 includes an air outlet frame assembly 122, which includes an air outlet frame 123 and a front panel 124. The front panel 124 is disposed on the front side of the air outlet frame 123. The radar module 31a and the display module 37 are both disposed on the front panel 124, with the radar module 31a located below the display module 37. Both the radar module 31a and the display module 37 are installed on the inside of the front panel 124. The front panel 124 can provide a certain degree of protection for the radar module 31a and the display module 37, preventing them from being damaged by external impacts. Furthermore, the fact that the display module 37 is installed on the inside of the front panel 124 allows it to directly transmit the display content to the outside of the front panel 124, making it convenient for users to view or operate the display content of the air conditioner 100 from the outside of the front panel 124.
[0138] It should be explained that the inner side of the front panel 124 refers to the side of the front panel 124 facing the interior of the housing assembly 10.
[0139] For example, the air outlet 121 is located on the left and right sides of the front panel 124. With the radar module 31a and the display module 37 both located on the front panel 124, and the radar module 31a located below the display module 37, the airflow of the air outlet 121 can be ensured to be smooth. This prevents the radar module 31a and the display module 37 from blocking the airflow of the air outlet 121. It can also ensure the detection accuracy of the radar module 31a, and prevent the air guide plate 51 at the air outlet 121 from affecting the detection accuracy of the radar module 31a. This also prevents the radar module 31a from misinterpreting the movement of the air guide plate 51 at the air outlet 121 as a human movement. The radar module 31a is located below the display module 37, which can reduce the obstruction of the display effect of the radar module 31a to the display module 37 or the interference of the display module 37 to the radar module 31a signal, ensuring the normal operation of the radar module 31a and the display module 37. Furthermore, the radar module 31a is located below the display module 37, which can utilize the vertical space and reduce the horizontal occupation, thereby making the overall structure of the air outlet 121, the display module 37 and the radar module 31a compact.
[0140] With the air outlet 121 located on the left and right sides of the radar module 31a, and the radar module 31a located below the display module 37, the internal space of the housing assembly 10 can be fully utilized, making the overall structure of the air outlet 121, display module 37 and radar module 31a compact. While the air outlet 121, display module 37 and radar module 31a are integrated in an orderly manner, mutual interference between the air outlet 121, display module 37 and radar module 31a can be reduced.
[0141] In some embodiments, both the display module 37 and the radar module 31a are mounted on the mounting box 35 and the mounting box 35 is detachably connected to the front panel 124, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the display module 37 and the radar module 31a on the front panel 124, thereby making the replacement or maintenance of the display module 37 or the radar module 31a more convenient.
[0142] For example, the assembly process of functional component 30 on the front panel 124 can be as follows: first, install the display module 37 and radar module 31a into the mounting box 35, and then assemble the display module 37, radar module 31a and mounting box 35 as a whole onto the front panel 124. This can realize the assembly process of assembling the radar module 31a and display module 37 into a whole and then installing them onto the front panel 124.
[0143] By pre-assembling the display module 37, radar module 31a, and mounting box 35 into a whole, the installation process of the display module 37 and radar module 31a on the front panel 124 can be completed by installing the mounting box 35 onto the front panel 124. This simplifies the operation steps of assembling the display module 37 and radar module 31a onto the front panel 124, reduces the assembly time of the display module 37 and radar module 31a on the front panel 124, and improves assembly efficiency. Furthermore, when the display module 37 or radar module 31a needs maintenance or replacement, only the mounting box 35 needs to be removed to remove the display module 37 and radar module 31a from the front panel 124, reducing disassembly time and facilitating the maintenance or replacement of the display module 37 or radar module 31a.
[0144] In some embodiments, the front panel 124 has a light-transmitting portion. The display module 37 and the radar module 31a are both located inside the front panel 124. The display module 37 includes a lamp body, a display circuit board 371, and a reflective cavity. The lamp body is disposed on the display circuit board 371. The reflective cavity is a light-transmitting element and is disposed on the display circuit board 371. The reflective cavity covers the outside of the lamp body. The light emitted by the lamp body is suitable to pass through the reflective cavity and finally propagate to the light-transmitting portion of the front panel 124 so that the user can see the display content from the outside of the front panel 124.
[0145] In some embodiments, the front panel 124 includes a panel body 126 and a panel support 127, the panel support 127 being disposed inside the panel body 126, and the mounting box 35 being detachably connected to the panel support 127.
[0146] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 12According to some embodiments of the present invention, the functional component 30 includes a microphone module 391. The microphone module 391 is disposed on the front panel 124 and is located above the display module 37. The microphone module 391 is detachably connected to the front panel 124, which facilitates the maintenance or replacement of the microphone module 391. For example, the air outlet 121 is located on the left and right sides of the front panel 124. By having both the microphone module 391 and the display module 37 disposed on the front panel 124 and the microphone module 391 located above the display module 37, the airflow of the air outlet 121 can be ensured to be smooth, and the microphone module 391 and the display module 37 can be prevented from blocking the airflow of the air outlet 121. The microphone module 391 is located above the display module 37, which can reduce the obstruction of the display effect of the microphone module 391 on the display module 37 or the interference of the display module 37 on the sound transmission of the microphone module 391, ensuring the normal operation of the microphone module 391 and the display module 37. Furthermore, the microphone module 391 is located above the display module 37, which can utilize the vertical space and reduce the horizontal occupation, thereby making the overall structure of the air outlet 121, the display module 37 and the microphone module 391 compact.
[0147] By positioning the microphone module 391 above the display module 37, the internal space of the housing assembly 10 can be fully utilized, resulting in a compact overall structure for the air outlet 121, display module 37, and microphone module 391. Furthermore, while the air outlet 121, display module 37, and microphone module 391 are integrated together in an orderly manner, mutual interference between them can be reduced.
[0148] In some embodiments, the housing assembly 10 is provided with a second fixing hole and a third limiting buckle 19. The second fixing hole and the third limiting buckle 19 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the microphone module 391. The left and right sides of the microphone module 391 are respectively provided with a third fixing hole and a first protrusion 396. The second fastener 393 passes through the third fixing hole and the second fixing hole. The third limiting buckle 19 abuts against the rear side of the first protrusion 396. The first protruding edge 396 can enhance the overall structural strength of the microphone module 391 to a certain extent. The second fastener 393 passes through the third fixing hole and the second fixing hole, which can make the connection between the microphone module 391 and the housing assembly 10 simple and have strong stability. Furthermore, the third limiting buckle 19 abuts against the rear side of the first protruding edge 396, which can limit the microphone module 391. Through the abutment between the third limiting buckle 19 and the rear side of the first protruding edge 396, the microphone module 391 can be more stably fixed on the housing assembly 10, reducing or preventing the microphone module 391 from moving relative to the housing assembly 10 in the front-back direction.
[0149] By having the second fastener 393 pass through the third fixing hole and the second fixing hole, and the third limiting buckle 19 abutting against the rear side of the first protrusion 396, a detachable connection between the microphone module 391 and the front panel 124 can be achieved. Furthermore, by having the second fixing hole and the third limiting buckle 19 located on the left and right sides of the microphone module 391 respectively, the microphone module 391 can be limited in the left and right direction, reducing or preventing the microphone module 391 from moving relative to the housing assembly 10 in the left and right direction.
[0150] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a second fastener 393 connects the microphone module 391 to the front panel 124. A clearance groove 125 is formed on the top of the front panel 124, adjacent to the second fastener 393 and used to clear assembly operation space. The clearance groove 125 allows for a larger assembly space for the operator, making the assembly of the microphone module 391 on the front panel 124 smoother and improving assembly efficiency.
[0151] For example, during assembly, when the operator needs to use the second fastener 393 to fix the microphone module 391 to the front panel 124, the clearance groove 125 creates space for the assembly operation. This avoids obstruction of the operating tools by the surrounding structure, allowing the operator to tighten the second fastener 393 more conveniently and smoothly, thereby improving assembly efficiency. For example, without the clearance groove 125, the operating tools might not be able to operate in a confined space, leading to a longer assembly time. By creating space for the assembly operation through the clearance groove 125, the operator can complete the fixing work quickly and accurately.
[0152] Reference Figure 2 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the functional component 30 includes a speaker module 394. The speaker module 394 is disposed at the upper end of the rear shell component 11 and is located above the heat exchange and air supply component. This can make full use of the space in the vertical direction and reduce the lateral occupation, so that the overall structure of the speaker module 394 and the heat exchange and air supply component is compact. At the same time, while the speaker module 394 and the heat exchange and air supply component are integrated together in an orderly manner, the mutual interference between the speaker module 394 and the heat exchange and air supply component can be reduced.
[0153] In some embodiments, an air inlet 111 is formed on the rear housing component 11, and an air duct is formed on the heat exchange air supply assembly. The air duct is opposite to the air inlet 111. By having the speaker module 394 disposed at the upper end of the rear housing component 11 and positioned above the heat exchange air supply assembly, the airflow of the air inlet 111 can be ensured to be smooth, and the speaker module 394 is prevented from blocking the airflow of the air inlet 111 due to its position on the air inlet 111.
[0154] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the front panel 124 includes a panel body 126 and a panel support 127. The panel support 127 is disposed on the rear side of the panel body 126, and a support plate 128 is provided on the rear side of the panel support 127. The support plate 128 is located on top of the panel support 127 and is supported above the air outlet frame 123. The support plate 128 can enhance the overall structural strength of the front panel 124 to a certain extent. By supporting the air outlet frame 123 above the air outlet frame 123 through the support plate 128, the air outlet frame 123 can support the front panel 124, enabling the front panel 124 to better withstand external impacts and effectively reduce or prevent the front panel 124 from shaking.
[0155] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a support protrusion 129 is further provided on the rear side of the panel support 127. The support protrusion 129 may be one or a plurality of protrusions spaced apart in the vertical direction. The support protrusion 129 is located below the support plate 128, and the rear surface of the support protrusion 129 is on the same plane as the rear side surface of the support plate 128. The support protrusion 129 can further enhance the overall structural strength of the front panel 124.
[0156] For example, the rear surface of the support protrusion 129 and the rear side of the support plate 128 are located on the same vertical plane. One or multiple support protrusions 129 are provided on the rear side of the panel support 127 at intervals in the vertical direction. Together with the support plate 128 located above, they form a multi-point support structure. This multi-point support structure can more evenly distribute the various external forces borne by the front panel 124. For example, the vibration generated by the operation of the air conditioner 100 itself, the impact and pressing forces applied by the outside, etc., can all be effectively distributed through the multi-point support structure, avoiding excessive stress concentration in a certain place. This further enhances the overall structural stability of the front panel 124, making it more firmly fixed in the corresponding position and reducing or avoiding the possibility of shaking, deformation, etc.
[0157] For example, during assembly, to facilitate assembly, the operator places the front panel 124 on the working surface, which is horizontal, with the rear side of the panel support 127 facing the working surface. A support protrusion 129 is provided on the rear side of the panel support 127, and the rear surface of the support protrusion 129 is on the same plane as the rear side of the support plate 128. At this time, the support protrusion 129 and the support plate 128 can form a multi-point support structure. When the operator is working, this multi-point support structure can effectively distribute the force applied by the operator, reducing or preventing the possibility of deformation of the front panel 124 due to uneven force.
[0158] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the panel support 127 is provided with a first slot 141 and a first fixing post 15. The first slot 141 and the first fixing post 15 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the mounting box 35. The upper and lower sides of the mounting box 35 are respectively provided with a first pin 354 and a first fixing hole 355. The first pin 354 is inserted upward into the first slot 141. A first fastener passes through the first fixing hole 355 and the first fixing post 15. The panel support 127 is provided with a plugging protrusion 14, and the first slot 141 is formed in the plugging protrusion 14. The rear surface of the plugging protrusion 14, the rear surface of the support protrusion 129, and the rear side of the support plate 128 are located on the same plane, for example, on the same vertical plane.
[0159] The insertion protrusion 14, the support protrusion 129 and the support plate 128 together form a multi-point support structure, which can more evenly distribute the various external forces borne by the front panel 124, thereby reducing or avoiding the possibility of deformation of the front panel 124.
[0160] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 14 and Figure 15According to some embodiments of the present invention, the front panel 124 includes a panel body 126 and a panel support 127. There are two air outlets 121 formed in the air outlet frame 123. The front panel 124 is located between the two air outlets 121. Sealing strips 130 are provided at the left and right ends of the front panel 124 respectively. The sealing strips 130 are used to seal the gap between the panel body 126 and the panel support 127. A sealing protrusion 131 is formed on the rear side of the sealing strip 130. The sealing protrusion 131 is used to seal the gap between the air outlet frame 123 and the panel support 127. The sealing strip 130 can effectively fill the gap between the panel body 126 and the panel support 127, preventing external dust, water and other impurities from entering the area between the panel body 126 and the panel support 127. The sealing protrusion 131 can seal the gap between the air outlet frame 123 and the panel support 127. Compared with the flat sealing method, the sealing protrusion 131 can better fit the surface of the gap between the air outlet frame 123 and the panel support 127, increasing the sealing contact area and forming a tighter seal. This allows the airflow at the air outlet 121 to blow out towards both sides of the front panel 124, effectively blocking the possibility of the airflow at the air outlet 121 flowing into the gap between the panel support 127 and the air outlet frame 123, thus improving the air output efficiency of the air conditioner 100.
[0161] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the housing assembly 10 includes a top cover 70, which covers the top of the air outlet frame 123. The top cover 70 is provided with a first overflow column 71, which forms a first overflow channel 711. The first overflow channel 711 extends from top to bottom through the first overflow column 71. The support plate 128 is provided with a water receiving area, and the water receiving area is provided with a second overflow column 132. The second overflow column 132 forms a second overflow channel 134, which extends from top to bottom through the second overflow column 132. At least a portion of the first overflow channel 711 is opposite to the second overflow channel 134. Air outlet channels are formed on the left and right sides of the air outlet frame 123, and at least a portion of the second overflow column 132 is opposite to the air outlet channels.
[0162] The condensate at the top of the top cover 70 can flow into the panel support 127 through the first overflow column 71, and then flow into the air outlet channel through the second overflow channel 134 on the second overflow column 132 on the panel support 127. After that, it flows to the bottom of the air outlet channel and is drained through the water tray.
[0163] Furthermore, the lower surface of the second overflow column 132 protrudes from the lower surface of the support plate 128, and a guide slope 133 is formed at the lower part of the second overflow column 132. The guide slope 133 is located at the lower part of the support plate 128 and extends obliquely towards the panel support 127 in a downward direction. The guide slope 133 can guide the condensate flowing into the second overflow channel 134, so that the condensate flows towards the air outlet channel as much as possible.
[0164] Additionally, the louver mechanism 52 is located within the air outlet duct. The louver mechanism 52 includes multiple louvers arranged vertically, each capable of oscillating up and down. The drive motor assembly 60 includes a second drive motor 61 for driving the louver mechanism 52. A motor cover 613 is provided around the outer periphery of the second drive motor 61. The upper part of the motor cover 613 has a water-retaining rib. Since the second drive motor 61 is located within the air outlet duct, the motor cover 613 protects it. By covering the outer periphery of the second drive motor 61 with the motor cover 613, the impact of external impacts on the second drive motor 61 can be reduced. The condensate flows through the inner wall of the air outlet channel to the water collection tray. The upper part of the motor cover 613 is provided with a water-blocking rib. For example, the water-blocking rib is set along the circumference of the motor cover 613. The water-blocking rib can increase the height of the outer circumference of the motor cover 613. For example, the upper edge of the water-blocking rib can be flush with the lower edge of the second overflow column 132 or the upper edge of the water-blocking rib can be located above the lower edge of the second overflow column 132. This can effectively prevent the condensate in the second overflow channel 134 from overflowing into the motor cover 613, thereby reducing or preventing the condensate from flowing to the second drive motor 61, which is beneficial to extending the service life of the second drive motor 61.
