[0046] According to the implementation mode of the present utility model, Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, an air conditioner outdoor unit is proposed, including a housing 10, a partition 20, an electric control component 30 and a water baffle 40. The partition 20 is arranged inside the housing 10, one end of the partition 20 is arranged toward the top of the housing 10, and the other end of the partition 20 is arranged toward the bottom of the housing 10, and the cavity inside the housing 10 is divided into two parts, one part of the cavity forms a first air duct, and the other part of the cavity is an installation cavity. The electric control component 30 is arranged in the installation cavity. The water baffle 40 is arranged in the housing 10 and is located above the electric control component 30. The water baffle 40 covers the electric control component 30 and is sealed and connected to the top of the partition 20.

[0047] Optionally, the air inlet end of the first air duct may be arranged on the top wall of the cavity, or on the side wall of the cavity.

[0048] Optionally, the electric control component 30 may be installed on a side wall of the installation cavity.

[0049] Optionally, the water baffle 40 may be spaced apart from the electric control component 30 , or may be disposed on the top of the electric control component 30 .

[0050] Optionally, a fan blade 80 is installed in the first air duct, and the fan blade 80 can send the cold or heat of the air conditioner outdoor unit to the outside through the first air duct. Figure 1 It is schematically shown that there are two fan blades 80 in the first air duct, which are arranged in the first air duct with an upper and lower interval.

[0051] Optionally, the connection between the water retaining plate 40 and the top of the partition plate 20 includes but is not limited to screw connection, riveting, welding or bonding, etc.

[0052] Exemplarily, a sealing layer is formed on the lower surface of the water baffle 40, and the sealing layer abuts against the top of the partition 20. The water baffle 40 is connected to the partition 20 by screws, and the water baffle 40 presses the sealing layer on the top of the partition 20 to seal. In other examples, the screws can also be replaced by fasteners such as anchors or screws. The water baffle 40 and the partition 20 can also be bonded together by a sealant. In order to further improve the connection strength between the two, the two can also be fastened by fasteners such as screws.

[0053] Optionally, the top end of the partition 20 is connected to the top of the housing 10, and the bottom end of the partition 20 is connected to the bottom of the housing 10. The connection between the partition 20 and the housing 10 includes but is not limited to screw connection, clamping, riveting or welding.

[0054] According to an air-conditioning outdoor unit of the utility model, a water baffle 40 is arranged above the electric control component 30, which can prevent condensed water on the top of the shell 10 from directly dripping into the electric control component 30, thereby reducing the probability of a short circuit in the electric control component 30; at the same time, the water baffle 40 is sealed and connected to one end of the top of the partition 20, which can prevent water vapor in the first air duct from entering the installation cavity, so as to further reduce the probability of a short circuit in the electric control component 30, thereby improving the safety of the air-conditioning outdoor unit.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a water receiving groove 41 is formed on the top surface of the water baffle plate 40. The water receiving groove 41 is provided with a drain port 43. The drain port 43 is communicated with the first air duct.

[0056] Optionally, the water retaining plate 40 may be formed into the water receiving groove 41 by stamping or injection molding, which not only facilitates processing but also improves the overall strength of the water retaining plate 40 .

[0057] Exemplarily, the drain port 43 is connected to one end of a drain pipe, and the other end of the drain pipe can pass through the partition 20 and be disposed in the first air duct to achieve communication between the drain port 43 and the first air duct.

[0058] When the air conditioner outdoor unit releases heat or cold, the cold or heat is transferred to the surface of the housing 10, and condensed water is generated on the inner surface of the top wall of the housing 10. When the condensed water on the top wall of the housing 10 corresponding to the electric control component 30 reaches a certain amount, it will drip into the water receiving groove 41 to collect the condensed water, and the condensed water is discharged into the first air duct through the drain port 43. Therefore, the water receiving groove 41 can prevent the condensed water on the top wall of the housing 10 from directly dripping into the electric control component 30, and discharge the condensed water in the installation cavity in time to reduce the humidity of the air in the installation cavity, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the electric control component 30 due to moisture or short circuit caused by condensed water dripping in.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a portion of the water receiving groove 41 is located in the first air duct, and the drain port 43 is formed on the side wall or the bottom of the water receiving groove 41 in the first air duct.

[0060] Exemplarily, the water baffle 40 extends from the installation cavity into the first air duct, and the water receiving groove 41 is provided with a drain port 43 at one end of the first air duct or at the bottom of the first air duct.

[0061] Compared with the method in which the drain port 43 is connected to the first air duct through a drain pipe, the trouble of connecting the drain pipe can be omitted, and the condensed water can be directly discharged from the drain port 43 into the first air duct, which is convenient for installation.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4As shown, along the direction from the electric control component 30 to the partition 20, the bottom surface of the water receiving tank 41 is tilted downward.

[0063] Thus, the bottom surface of the water receiving groove 41 can be made into a slope structure. After the condensed water drops into the water receiving groove 41, the condensed water can flow along the slope of the water receiving groove 41 to the drain port 43, and finally flow to the first air duct, so that too much condensed water will not remain in the water receiving groove 41, thereby reducing the humidity of the air in the installation cavity, thereby reducing the probability of the electronic control component 30 being affected by moisture and short-circuited.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a protrusion 42 is formed at the bottom of the water receiving groove 41 , and a connecting hole 421 is provided at the top of the protrusion 42 , and the water baffle plate 40 is connected to the electric control component 30 through the connecting hole 421 .

[0065] Optionally, the water tank 41 can be connected to the electric control component 30 by screws. Specifically, the electric control component 30 includes a mounting plate 31, an electric control main board 32 and a filter plate 33, wherein the filter plate 33 and the electric control main board 32 can be mounted on both sides of the mounting plate 31, and the filter plate 33 and the electric control main board 32 can be connected to the mounting plate 31 by screws. The mounting plate 31 includes a main body and a connecting part, the connecting part is located at the top of the main body and connected to the main body, the connecting part and the main body can be integrally formed, or can be fixed together by welding or screw connection, the connecting part can be generally a plate-like structure, the connecting part and the main body can be generally arranged at 90°, the top surface of the connecting part is provided with a mounting hole, a fastener is placed in the connecting hole 421 of the water retaining plate 40, the end of the fastener is connected to the mounting hole, and the fastener and the mounting hole can be connected by, but not limited to, screw connection, riveting or bolt connection.

[0066] A protrusion 42 is provided at the bottom of the water receiving groove 41, and a connecting hole 421 is provided on the protrusion 42, so that the water in the water receiving groove 41 will not penetrate into the connecting hole 421, thereby preventing the water from penetrating into the electric control component 30 through the connecting hole 421, so as to reduce the probability of short circuit of the electric control component 30.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner outdoor unit further includes a sealing strip 50 , which is sandwiched between the water baffle 40 and the top of the partition 20 .

[0068] Optionally, the sealing strip 50 includes but is not limited to a rubber sealing strip 50, a silicone sealing strip 50, a sponge sealing strip 50 or a sealing adhesive strip, etc.

[0069] Compared with the method of sealing the water baffle plate 40 and the partition plate 20 together by welding, the provision of the sealing strip 50 facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the water baffle plate 40 and the partition plate 20, so as to facilitate the maintenance of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, an air inlet 111 penetrating the installation cavity is formed on the outer surface of the housing 10, and an air outlet 213 penetrating the installation cavity and the first air duct is formed on the partition plate 20.

[0071] Optionally, the air inlet 111 may be disposed on a side wall of the housing 10 , and the air inlet 111 may have a shutter structure on an outer surface of the side wall of the housing 10 , which may prevent rainwater from entering.

[0072] Optionally, the air inlet 111 is closer to the top of the housing 10 than to the bottom of the housing 10 .

[0073] Optionally, the air inlet 111 is located below the electronic control component 30 .

[0074] The partition 20 is provided with an exhaust port 213, so that wind can enter the first air duct from the installation cavity, and then the heat of the electric control component 30 is taken out of the room through the first air duct. In other examples, the first air duct may not draw air from the first air duct, and the electric control component 30 may be installed with a fan to dissipate heat through the fan.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioner outdoor unit also includes a waterproof cover 60, which is located in the first air duct and covers the exhaust port 213. The bottom of the waterproof cover 60 and the partition 20 jointly define an air inlet and outlet 61, and the exhaust port 213 is connected to the first air duct through the air inlet 61.

[0076] Optionally, a notch communicating with the interior of the waterproof cover 60 is formed at the bottom of the waterproof cover 60 , and the waterproof cover 60 is connected to the partition 20 by screws, and the notch and the partition 20 together form an air inlet 61 .

[0077] The provision of the waterproof cover 60 can prevent the water in the first air duct from entering the installation cavity through the air outlet 213 , so as to reduce the probability of a short circuit of the electronic control component 30 .

[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, along the direction from the electronic control component 30 to the partition 20, the opening size of the exhaust port 213 gradually increases.

[0079] Optionally, the inner surface of the air outlet 213 may be, but is not limited to, a conical surface or a pyramidal surface structure.

[0080] Therefore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the air inlet side of the exhaust port 213 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the air outlet side, which can prevent the water in the waterproof cover 60 from flowing back to the air inlet side of the exhaust port 213, thereby further reducing the risk of short circuit of the electronic control component 30.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the bottom edge of the exhaust port 213 and the top of the housing 10 is H1, the distance between the bottom of the housing 10 and the top of the housing 10 is H, and the distance between the bottom of the electronic control component 30 and the top of the housing 10 is H2, wherein H>2*H1, H>2*H2.

[0082] Optionally, along the thickness direction of the partition 20, the air outlet 213 and the electric control component 30 can be arranged opposite or obliquely, so that the air flow can take away the heat generated by the electric control component 30 when passing through the air outlet 213. Among them, along the spacing direction between the electric control component 30 and the partition 20, the air outlet 213 is located on one side of the electric control component 30, and H1 is smaller than H2, which can better bring the heat of the electric control component 30 directly into the first air duct.

[0083] Since water flows from top to bottom, the exhaust port 213 of the first air duct is arranged at a position close to the top of the outer shell 10. Compared with a position where the exhaust port 213 is arranged closer to the bottom of the outer shell 10, on the one hand, it can reduce the probability of water flowing from the exhaust port 213 into the installation cavity and causing a short circuit of the electronic control component 30, and on the other hand, it is convenient to take away the heat dissipated from the electronic control component 30 to the installation cavity.

[0084] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, a first reinforcing rib 211 and a second reinforcing rib 212 are formed on the surface of the partition 20 . The first reinforcing rib 211 extends along the height direction of the shell 10 and is arranged at an angle with the second reinforcing rib 212 .

[0085] The height direction of the housing 10 refers to the distance direction between the bottom and the top of the housing 10 .

[0086] Optionally, the first reinforcing rib 211 is perpendicular to the second reinforcing rib 212 .

[0087] Optionally, a groove is formed on one side of the partition 20, and a protrusion 42 is formed on the other side thereof at a position corresponding to the groove. The protrusion 42 can serve as a reinforcing rib, that is, the first reinforcing rib 211 and the second reinforcing rib 212 can be formed by stamping.

[0088] The first reinforcement member and the second reinforcement rib 212 extend in two different directions, which can improve the lateral and height strength of the partition 20, so that the partition 20 is not prone to bending and deformation when installed in the outer shell 10, thereby better preventing water in the first air duct from entering the installation cavity through the gap between the partition 20 and the outer shell 10.

[0089] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7As shown, the partition 20 includes a first part 21 and a second part 22 . One end of the first part 21 along a first direction X is connected to the second part 22 , and the two are arranged at an angle. The first direction X is perpendicular to the height direction of the housing 10 .

[0090] The connection method between the first part 21 and the second part 22 includes, but is not limited to, riveting, welding, bolting or integral molding.

[0091] The first portion 21 and the second portion 22 are arranged at an angle, which can further improve the bending resistance of the partition 20 so that the partition 20 is not easily bent or deformed during use.

[0092] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, a third reinforcing rib 221 is formed on the surface of the second portion 22 , and the second reinforcing rib 212 extends to the surface of the second portion 22 and is arranged at an angle to the third reinforcing rib 221 .

[0093] Optionally, the first reinforcing rib 211 , the second reinforcing rib 212 and the third reinforcing rib 221 may be formed by stamping on a flat plate, and then the first portion 21 and the second portion 22 may be formed by bending, so that the second reinforcing rib 212 extends to the surface of the second portion 22 .

[0094] Optionally, a portion of the second reinforcing ribs 212 intersect with the third reinforcing ribs 221 .

[0095] Thus, the bending resistance of the partition 20 can be further improved to prevent water in the first air duct from entering the installation cavity through the gap between the partition 20 and the housing 10 , thereby improving the waterproofness of the partition 20 .

[0096] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the housing 10 includes a top plate 12, a bottom plate 13, a side plate 11 and a heat exchanger 70. The top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13 are spaced apart. Both ends of the side plate 11 are connected to the top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13. Both ends of the heat exchanger 70 are connected to the top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13. The specific connection method can be screw connection. The side plate 11, the heat exchanger 70, the top plate 12 and the bottom plate 13 jointly define the housing 10. The housing 10 can be a box structure.
