[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by technicians in the technical field of this application; the terms used in the specification of the application herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application; the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

[0036] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0037] For ease of understanding, the terms mentioned in the specific implementation are first explained below:

[0038] (1) A vertical direction, parallel to the direction in which the insertion body is inserted into the insertion slot 140;

[0039] (2) Horizontal direction, which is perpendicular to the direction in which the insertion body is inserted into the insertion slot 140 .

[0040] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a shell assembly 10, which is applied to a duct machine; the shell assembly 10 includes a shell 110 and a support member 120; the shell 110 is provided with a cavity 111; the support member 120 is arranged in the cavity 111, and its two ends are respectively abutted against two opposite inner surfaces of the shell 110; a limiting structure is provided between at least one end of the support member 120 and the inner surface of the shell 110, and the limiting structure is used to limit the position of the support member 120 in at least two directions.

[0041] In this embodiment, a limiting structure is used to limit the position of the support member 120 in at least two directions, so that the support member 120 can be accurately limited to the required position, so as to reduce or avoid the deviation or shaking of the support member 120 during the assembly process of the shell component 10, so that the support member 120 can support the upper plate 115 of the shell 110, thereby avoiding the deviation and tilt of the various plates in the shell 110 due to the deviation of the upper plate 115; in this way, the accuracy of the assembly position of the support member 120 and the various plates in the shell 110 is effectively improved, thereby improving the accuracy of the assembly of the shell component 10.

[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The shell 110 includes a plurality of plates, namely an upper plate 115, a side plate 117 and a lower plate 116; wherein the upper plate 115 and the lower plate 116 are arranged opposite to each other, and the side plate 117 is arranged between the upper plate 115 and the lower plate 116, and the cavity 111 is formed by the upper plate 115, the lower plate 116 and the side plate 117, and the two ends of the support member 120 are respectively in contact with the upper plate 115 and the lower plate 116 to form a support for the upper plate 115.

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figures 2 to 5, the limiting structure includes a plug-in body 130 and a plug-in slot 140 for plug-in matching; the plug-in body 130 is installed at one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided in the shell 110; or, the plug-in body 130 is installed at one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided in the shell 110. On the one hand, the plug-in matching connection method using the plug-in body 130 and the plug-in slot 140 is simple and reliable in structure, and convenient for assembly and disassembly. On the other hand, the matching of the plug-in body 130 and the plug-in slot 140 can realize the pre-installed structure of the support member 120 in the shell 110, thereby reducing the assembly process and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0044] Understandably, see Figure 5 , when the plug-in body 130 is installed at one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided in the shell 110, after the plug-in body 130 is inserted into the plug-in slot 140, the plug-in slot 140 is used to limit the horizontal position of the plug-in body 130, thereby realizing the horizontal limitation of the support member 120, and since the two ends of the support member 120 are respectively arranged close to the two opposite inner surfaces of the shell 110, the vertical direction of the support member 120 is limited; in this way, the limitation of the support member 120 in multiple directions is realized, and the accuracy of the installation position of the support member 120 is effectively improved, so that the support member 120 can form a stable support for the upper plate 115 of the shell 110, thereby improving the assembly accuracy of the entire shell component 10.

[0045] When the plug-in body 130 is installed on the inner surface of the shell 110 and the plug-in slot 140 is provided at one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, the above effect of "the plug-in body 130 is installed on one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided in the shell 110" can also be achieved, and no further details are given here.

[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4, the plug-in slot 140 is provided on the housing 110; the housing 110 has a first enclosure 112 and a second enclosure 113 provided on the cavity 111; the first enclosure 112 and the second enclosure 113 are spaced apart, and the first enclosure 112 is provided with a notch 1121, and the two sides of the second enclosure 113 are respectively connected to the two side edges of the notch 1121; the plug-in slot 140 is formed by the inner side surfaces of the second enclosure 113 close to the first enclosure 112. In this way, it is possible to avoid directly providing the plug-in slot 140 on the housing 110, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the housing 110.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 An opening 114 communicating with the cavity 111 is formed on one side of the shell 110 ; the first enclosure 112 is disposed at the edge of the opening 114 ; and the second enclosure 113 is disposed in the cavity 111 or outside the opening 114 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the first enclosure 112 located at the edge of the opening 114 is a flange of the shell 110. On the one hand, it is used to enhance the structural strength of the shell 110 at the opening 114, and a connection point for each panel in the shell 110 can be provided on the first enclosure 112 to facilitate assembly and connection of the panels. On the other hand, the flange is used to cooperate with the second enclosure 113 to form a plug-in groove 140 for installation of the plug-in body 130, so that the installation position of the support member 120 is close to the opening 114, thereby facilitating the assembly and connection of the support member 120 in the shell 110 and improving the convenience of installation.

[0049] It can be understood that when the second enclosure 113 is disposed in the cavity 111, the installation position of the support member 120 is located in the cavity 111, which can protect the support member 120, reduce or prevent the wear of external components, and reduce the overall space occupied by the shell assembly 10; when the second enclosure 113 is disposed outside the opening 114, it is convenient for the operator to directly install the parts on the shell 110, thereby further improving the installation convenience of the support member 120.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figures 2 to 5 The second enclosure 113 is provided with a first fixing portion 1131, and the support member 120 is provided with a second fixing portion 121 used in conjunction with the first fixing portion 1131. By means of the cooperation between the first fixing portion 1131 and the second fixing portion 121, the second enclosure 113 and the support member 120 are connected and fixed, thereby ensuring the connection stability between the two.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first fixing portion 1131 is a first fixing hole opened in the second enclosure 113, and the second fixing portion 121 is a second fixing hole opened in the support member 120. Through the cooperation between the first fixing portion 1131 and the second fixing portion 121, after the fixing components such as pins and screws are passed through the first fixing portion 1131 and the second fixing portion 121, the connection and fixation between the second enclosure 113 and the support plate are achieved, and the installation is simple and reliable.

[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The plug body 130 includes a plug part 131 and a limiting part 132; the plug part 131 is used to plug and match with the plug slot 140; the limiting part 132 is used to limit the position of the plug part 131 inserted into the plug slot 140. The limiting part 132 is used to limit the position of the plug part 131 after being inserted into the plug slot 140, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the plug position of the plug part 131, and further ensuring the accuracy of the installation position of the support member 120.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The limiting portion 132 is a limiting stopper, and the limiting stopper abuts against the housing 110 or the supporting member 120 .

[0054] It can be understood that, when "the plug-in body 130 is installed on one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided on the shell 110", the limit stopper abuts against the surface of the shell 110 close to the plug-in slot 140, thereby limiting the insertion position of the insertion part; ② When "the plug-in body 130 is installed on the inner surface of the shell 110, and the plug-in slot 140 is provided on one end of the support member 120 close to the inner surface of the shell 110", the limit stopper abuts against the surface of the support member 120 close to the plug-in slot 140, thereby limiting the insertion position of the insertion part.

[0055] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 , the plug body 130 is in a stepped shape. Understandably, the stepped plug body 130 has a surface extending in the vertical direction on the one hand, which can be plugged with the plug slot 140 to form a limit on the position of the support member 120 in multiple directions, thereby improving the assembly accuracy of the housing assembly 10. On the other hand, the ladder-shaped plug body 130 also has a surface perpendicular to the vertical direction, which can form abutment with the surface of the housing 110 provided with the plug slot 140 or the support member 120 close to the plug slot 140 when the plug body 130 and the plug slot 140 are plugged, thereby limiting the plugging position of the plug body 130, further improving the assembly accuracy of the support member 120, and further improving the assembly accuracy of the housing assembly 10.

[0056] In some embodiments, the number of the limiting structures is two, and the two limiting structures are respectively arranged at both ends of the support member 120. The two limiting structures can respectively and simultaneously ensure the assembly accuracy of both ends of the support member 120, thereby further improving the assembly accuracy of the housing assembly 10.

[0057] See also Figure 6 The embodiment of the present application also provides a duct machine, including the housing assembly 10 as described above.

[0058] In this embodiment, the housing assembly 10 includes but is not limited to being used for installing at least one component such as a heat exchanger, a fan, a water tray and a drainage pump.

[0059] In the shell assembly 10, a limiting structure is used to limit the position of the support member 120 in at least two directions, so that the support member 120 can be accurately limited to the required position, so as to reduce or avoid the deviation or shaking of the support member 120 during the assembly process of the shell assembly 10, so that the support member 120 can support the upper plate 115 of the shell 110, thereby avoiding the problem of deviation and tilt of each plate in the shell 110 due to the deviation of the upper plate 115; in this way, the accuracy of the assembly position of the support member 120 and each plate in the shell 110 is effectively improved, thereby improving the accuracy of the assembly of the shell assembly 10.

[0060] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. The preferred embodiments of the present application are given in the accompanying drawings, but they do not limit the patent scope of the present application. The present application can be implemented in many different forms. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.
