[0017] After adopting the above technical scheme, the effect of the utility model is as follows: since the thin air-conditioning main unit of the electric vehicle includes a shell, the shell is fixed with a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an evaporator connected to each other, the lower end of the shell is provided with an air-conditioning return air port and an air-conditioning outlet, the shell is provided with an upper wind cover for covering the air-conditioning return air port and the air-conditioning outlet, the upper wind cover is provided with an upper partition plate, the upper partition plate divides the wind cover into a return air chamber and an outlet air chamber, the air-conditioning return air port is communicated with the return air chamber, and the air-conditioning outlet is communicated with the outlet The evaporator comprises an evaporator body, on which an evaporator refrigerant inlet, an evaporator refrigerant outlet and an evaporator refrigerant flow channel connecting the evaporator refrigerant inlet and the evaporator refrigerant outlet are arranged, the evaporator refrigerant inlet is connected to the refrigerant outlet of the expansion valve, the evaporator refrigerant outlet is connected to the reflux port of the compressor through a refrigerant return line, the refrigerant outlet of the compressor is connected to the inlet of the condenser, the outlet of the condenser is connected to the refrigerant inlet of the expansion valve, and a refrigerant collecting device for collecting condensed water is arranged below the air outlet chamber. A condensed water collecting tank, at least one end of which is provided with a drain pipe, the evaporator body is fixed in the air outlet chamber at an angle toward the air outlet of the air conditioner, an air blowing port is provided on the upper partition plate, a positive pressure fan for blowing air to the evaporator body is fixed on the upper partition plate, the air outlet of the positive pressure fan is arranged to blow air horizontally and corresponds to the air blowing port, the installation height of the condenser is lower than the installation height of the evaporator body, a blocking plate for obliquely blocking the blowing of the evaporator is arranged along the downstream groove of the condensed water collecting tank, and the upper end of the blocking plate is connected to the wind cover An outlet duct is formed above the air conditioner to facilitate the passage of air flow, and the outlet duct is communicated with the air outlet of the air conditioner, and the upper partition plate is connected to the upstream slot edge of the condensate collecting tank; a lower wind cover covering the air conditioner return air outlet and the air conditioner outlet is installed below the shell, and an air inlet and an air outlet are arranged on the lower wind cover, and the distribution range of the air outlet is larger than the distribution range of the air inlet, and an air inlet chamber and an air outlet chamber corresponding to the air inlet and the air outlet are arranged on the lower wind cover, and the air inlet chamber corresponds to the air conditioner return air outlet, and the air outlet chamber corresponds to the air conditioner outlet;The compressor starts up, compresses the refrigerant and sends it to the condenser, where it dissipates heat and forms liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant is adjusted by the expansion valve to become low-pressure liquid refrigerant and enters the evaporator body, where it absorbs surrounding heat and becomes gaseous refrigerant. The positive-pressure fan blows air to the evaporator body, first drawing air from the air inlet into the air inlet chamber and then into the return air chamber from the air conditioner return air outlet, thereby blowing the cold air in the hood out from the air conditioner outlet. Since the positive-pressure fan has horizontal air outlets and the evaporator body is tilted, a part of it will be aligned with the air outlet of the positive-pressure fan, so that the airflow will enter the evaporator body and guide the airflow to be blown out at an angle. The airflow is large and the wind speed is fast, which can speed up the process. The evaporation of the refrigerant in the evaporator improves the cooling effect of the air conditioner. Since the evaporator is tilted, the airflow will blow to the bottom of the wind shield, which reduces the impact of the airflow. Since the temperature of the evaporator body is relatively low, condensed water will be generated on the outer surface of the evaporator body, and this condensed water may be blown off. At this time, the condensed water falls on the bottom of the wind shield and finally enters the condensed water collection tank. The blocking plate can also effectively block the condensed water splashed to the outside. Then the condensed water flows into the condensed water collection tank along the blocking plate and is discharged through the drain pipe. This can effectively prevent the condensed water from being blown out from the air outlet of the air conditioner; then the airflow is blown out from the air outlet of the air conditioner along the air outlet duct, and finally the airflow enters the exhaust chamber and is discharged from the exhaust port; the air conditioner host can effectively reduce the overall thickness, and ensure that the blowing is stable and does not carry water droplets, thereby improving the use and installation effect. ;
[0018] Because the evaporator body is fixed on the upstream side of the condensate collecting tank and is tilted to cover the condensate collecting tank, a positive pressure airflow gap is formed between the downstream side of the evaporator body and the upper opening of the condensate collecting tank to facilitate the airflow to enter the condensate collecting tank; the condenser is horizontally suspended inside the shell, and the bottom of the shell is provided with heat dissipation holes corresponding to the condenser; it can ensure that the condensed water can quickly enter the condensate collecting tank after being blown by the airflow, and the gas blown out by the positive pressure fan will pass through the positive pressure airflow gap into the condensate collecting tank, and then be blown out from the drain pipe, so that the condensed water in the condensate collecting tank can be discharged more smoothly; and when the condenser is installed horizontally, the installation height is minimized, ensuring that the overall effective thickness of the shell can be reduced, thereby improving the use effect.
[0019] Since a car roof is also provided between the lower hood and the outer shell, a notch is provided on the car roof to accommodate an air-conditioning return air port and an air-conditioning outlet. A sealing plate is provided on the lower hood to seal an air inlet chamber and an air exhaust chamber. The sealing plate is connected to the outer shell and fixedly presses the car roof via connecting screws. The lower hood cooperates with the sealing plate via a screw connection. The sealing plate is provided with an air inlet opening for facilitating communication between the air inlet chamber and the return air chamber, and an air outlet opening for corresponding communication between the exhaust chamber and the air outlet chamber. The connecting screws can ensure that the sealing plate and the lower hood are fixed accurately and stably in sequence, and can effectively ensure effective communication between the outer shell and the lower hood.
[0020] Furthermore, since the sealing plate is provided with an air outlet pipe opening inserted into the air outlet of the air conditioner, the air outlet pipe opening corresponds to the position of the air outlet opening, and the return air chamber, the notch and the air inlet chamber are interconnected, so that the exhaust chamber and the air outlet chamber are effectively connected, and the blown gas can directly enter the exhaust chamber, thereby improving the efficiency of blowing. After the return air chamber, the notch and the air inlet chamber are connected, the efficiency of exhaustion can be increased, and the air intake volume can be increased.
[0021] Furthermore, since the lower wind hood includes a downwardly concave mounting plate, the mounting plate is provided with inclined enclosures transitioning to the mounting plate around the mounting plate, the air inlet chamber and the air exhaust chamber are divided and separated by a lower partition plate between the mounting plate and the sealing plate, an air conditioning control panel is provided on the mounting plate, the air inlet and air exhaust outlet are distributed on the mounting plate and the inclined enclosure, and the distribution range of the air exhaust outlet is larger than the distribution range of the air inlet; the lower wind hood will be installed inside the vehicle, so as to effectively circulate the air in the vehicle through the air inlet and air exhaust outlet, and increase the blowing range of the air exhaust outlet.
[0022] Furthermore, since inclined insertion grooves are provided on both side walls of the air outlet chamber, the evaporator body is inserted into the insertion grooves, and the upper wind hood includes an upper wind hood body fixed on the bottom plate of the shell, and an upper cover is fixed on the upper end of the upper wind hood body; the evaporator body can be easily installed along the insertion grooves, thereby being quickly and accurately fixed, and the internal structure of the upper wind hood body can be effectively protected by the upper cover.
[0023] Furthermore, since an annular protrusion is provided at the edge of the notch of the automobile roof, a limit stop ring is provided below the bottom plate of the shell to cover the annular protrusion, and the top plate of the automobile is also provided with a mounting protrusion that allows the shell to be suspended on the top plate of the automobile to facilitate the heat dissipation of the condenser; the bottom plate of the shell can be quickly installed above the top plate of the automobile through the annular protrusion and the limit stop ring, and the shell can be effectively suspended in the air, so that the heat emitted by the condenser during condensation can be effectively dissipated, thereby improving efficiency.
[0024] Furthermore, since the upper end of the blocking plate is provided with a folded edge bent toward the upstream side, this can effectively protect the condensed water on the blocking plate, so when the air volume and air pressure of the positive pressure fan can be increased, the blowing out of the condensed water can also be effectively protected.
[0025] Since the outer contour of the lower wind hood is a rectangle, the lower partition plate includes a middle straight plate portion and an inclined plate portion connecting the two ends of the middle straight plate portion, and the inclined plate portion extends to two adjacent corners of the lower wind hood; this can effectively limit the installation position of the air inlet and the air outlet, expand the position where the air outlet can be installed as much as possible, and improve the blowing range.
[0026] Since a PTC heater is also provided on the upper wind hood downstream of the evaporator body, when heating is needed in winter, the PTC heater can be started for heating. At this time, the positive pressure fan blows the heated hot air into the car, thereby achieving heating in the car. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

When the positive pressure fan 15 blows air, the airflow blows out horizontally when the positive pressure fan 15 discharges air, and the evaporator 5 body is tilted toward the air outlet 7 of the air conditioner, so that one side of the evaporator 5 body will be aligned with the bottom of the air outlet chamber 11, and a part of it will also cover the condensate collection tank 12. In this way, when the airflow passes through the evaporator 5 body, the horizontal airflow will be tilted and blown out, with a large airflow and a fast wind speed.

[0045] Furthermore, the upper end of the blocking plate 16 is provided with a folded edge 38 bent toward the upstream side; this can effectively protect the condensed water on the blocking plate 16, so when the air volume and air pressure of the positive pressure fan 15 can be increased, the condensed water can be effectively protected from being blown out.
[0046] like Figure 8 As shown, the outer contour of the lower wind hood 18 is a rectangle, and the lower partition plate 23 includes a middle straight plate portion 46 and an inclined plate portion 47 connecting the two ends of the middle straight plate portion 46, and the inclined plate portion 47 extends to two adjacent corners of the lower wind hood 18; the inclined plate portion 47 extending along the two adjacent corners of the lower wind hood 18 can expand the installation range of the exhaust port 19 as much as possible, and make full use of the space of the inclined plate portion 47, and the exhaust hole 44 is installed on the inclined enclosure 31 away from the regulating air outlet 43, close to the two corners of the lower wind hood 18, and it is also necessary to prevent the installation range of the air inlet 20 from being too small, resulting in too fast exhaust speed, so that the airflow just blown out is sucked back, affecting the use effect.
[0047] A PTC heater 39 is also provided on the upper wind hood downstream of the evaporator 5 body; in this way, when heating is needed in winter, the PTC heater 39 can be started for heating, and at this time, the positive pressure fan 15 blows the heated hot air into the car, thereby realizing heating in the car; the PTC heater 39 has a plate-like structure on the outside, which is snapped into the upper wind hood 8 and fixed with the top and bottom of the upper wind hood 8, so that the PTC heater 39 can be effectively pressed and the airflow can pass effectively, and the PTC heater 39 and the upper wind hood 8 are only snap-fitted together without any sealing, and the condensed water on the blocking plate 16 can flow into the condensed water collecting tank 12 through the gap between the PTC heater 39 and the upper wind hood 8 in turn.
[0048] When working, the air conditioner host is installed in the new energy vehicle At the top, when air conditioning is needed, the compressor 2 is started, and the compressor 2 compresses the refrigerant and enters the condenser 3. The refrigerant dissipates heat in the condenser 3 to form a liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant is controlled and regulated by the expansion valve 4 to become a low-pressure liquid refrigerant and enters the evaporator 5 body. The refrigerant absorbs the surrounding heat energy on the evaporator 5 body and becomes a gaseous refrigerant. The positive pressure fan 15 just blows air to the evaporator 5 body, draws the air flow in the car through the air inlet 20, enters the air inlet chamber 21 and then enters the return air chamber 10. The positive pressure fan 15 blows out the air horizontally through the tilted evaporator 5 body, so that the air flow will be driven to blow out tilted, and the cold air brought out of the evaporator 5 body is blown out from the air conditioning outlet 7 through the air outlet pipe 29 into the exhaust chamber, and finally from the exhaust port 19 The condensed water will be discharged from the evaporator 5 body, and the air flow is large and the wind speed is fast, so condensed water will be generated on the outer surface of the evaporator 5 body. The evaporator 5 body is tilted to cover the bottom of the upper wind hood 8, and the air flow will drive the condensed water to fall and flow into the condensed water collecting tank 12. At the same time, the blocking plate 16 can also be used to block the splashing condensed water, and then the condensed water flows into the condensed water collecting tank 12 along the blocking plate 16 and is discharged from the drain pipe 13; since the evaporator box body is tilted, the condensed water that naturally drips when the positive pressure fan 15 stops will directly fall into the condensed water collecting tank 12; when heating is needed in winter, the PTC heater 39 can be started for heating. At this time, the positive pressure fan 15 blows the heated hot air into the car, thereby realizing heating in the car.
