[0032] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] See also Figure 1 , 2 As shown;

[0034] The utility model is used for a top cover of an indoor unit of an air conditioner, comprising: a top cover body 100, the top cover body 100 having an upper cover body 10, a lower cover body 20 and a lock buckle 30;

[0035] The top cover body 100 can be detachably connected to the rear box body 200 and docked with the front panel 300;

[0036] The lower cover 20 can be detachably connected to the rear box 200 through a connecting piece, the upper cover 10 covers the upper part of the lower cover 20, a first coupling portion 12 is formed on one side of the upper cover 10, and a lock buckle 30 is installed on the other side. The upper cover 10 is locked or disengaged with the lower cover 20 through the lock buckle 30, and the lower cover 20 forms a second coupling portion 23 at the position of the first coupling portion 12;

[0037] During use, when the upper cover 10 and the lower cover 20 are in a locked state, the first coupling portion 12 is coupled with the second coupling portion 23, so that the upper cover 10 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the lower cover 20. During disassembly, the lock buckle 30 is pressed to unlock and detach from the lower cover 20, and the upper cover 20 is pulled horizontally, so that the upper cover 20 and the lower cover 10 can be quickly disassembled.

[0038] See also Figure 3 , 4 、5 as shown:

[0039] Preferably, the upper cover 10 has a docking surface on the side away from the lock buckle 30, and docks with the front panel 300 through the docking surface. The first coupling portion 12 is a slot provided on the docking surface, and an insert block is formed at a position corresponding to the slot on the lower cover 20, and the insert block is the second coupling portion 23. When assembling, the upper cover 10 slides horizontally, and the slot slides into the insert block for coupling, thereby preventing the upper cover 10 from moving up and down.

[0040] In order to ensure that the upper cover body 10 and the lower cover body 20 are concentric, in a preferred embodiment, the side wall of the slot is formed with a first mating surface 13 that extends obliquely toward the lock buckle 30, and the plug block is formed with a second mating surface 25 that fits with the first mating surface 13. In other words, the plug block is a wedge-shaped block, and the upper cover body 10 is ensured to be centered by the cooperation of the inclined surfaces, thereby ensuring that the upper cover body 10 and the lower cover body 20 are concentric after assembly, thereby ensuring the assembly quality and improving the aesthetics of the product.

[0041] See also Figure 6 As shown:

[0042] Preferably, a protrusion 24 is formed on the upper surface of the plug block, and the protrusion 24 is a wedge-shaped block. A second mating surface 25 is formed on one side of the protrusion 24, and a fourth mating surface 26 is formed on the lower surface of the plug block. The fourth mating surface 26 contacts the third mating surface 14 formed on the slot. During assembly, the first mating surface 13 contacts the second mating surface 23 to guide the upper cover body 10 to be centered, and the third mating surface 14 contacts the fourth mating surface 26 to prevent the upper cover body 10 from moving up and down.

[0043] See also Figure 3 As shown:

[0044] Preferably, the lock buckle 30 is a snap button that can be extended and retracted by being pressed, and the snap button is fixedly connected with a lock tongue 31, which is locked or disengaged with a lock groove 21 provided on the lower cover body 20 through the lock tongue 31. Preferably, the upper cover body 10 is provided with a lock hole 11 for exposing the lock buckle 30, and the lock buckle 30 is driven to move through the lock hole 11.

[0045] When in use, a finger is inserted into the lock hole 11 to press the lock buckle 30, and the lock buckle 30 moves upward, driving the lock tongue 31 to disengage from the lock groove 21, unlocking the upper cover 10. An elastic component is installed in the lock buckle 30, and the lock buckle 30 is driven by the elastic component to keep the extended state. After the hand is released, the lock tongue 31 is driven by the lock buckle 30 to keep locked with the lock groove 21;

[0046] See also Figure 6 As shown:

[0047] Preferably, the lower cover body 20 has a positioning column inside, and the positioning column is provided with a mounting hole 22. The mounting hole 22 can be detachably connected to the rear box body 200 through a connecting piece. The connecting piece is a screw in the prior art. In this structure, the top cover body 100 sets the upper cover body 10 and the lower cover body 20 as a split structure. The lower cover body 20 is detachably connected to the rear box body 200 by screws. The upper cover body 10 covers the upper part of the lower cover body 20 to cover the connecting piece, and can be quickly unlocked from the lower cover body 20 by the lock buckle 30, which is convenient for assembly. At the same time, the upper cover body 10 covers the connecting piece, which effectively avoids exposure of the connecting piece.

[0048] The above only describes some exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
