DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, one or more examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The various embodiments provided are intended to illustrate the present invention, not to limit it. Indeed, various modifications and variations of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. For example, features illustrated or described as part of one embodiment can be used with another embodiment to produce still further embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is intended to cover such modifications and variations within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0036] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 8The integrated air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below.

[0037] In the description of this embodiment, it should be understood that the term "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined. When a feature "includes or comprises" one or more of the features it covers, unless otherwise specifically described, this indicates that other features are not excluded and may further include other features.

[0038] In the description of the present embodiment, reference to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "some examples," or "an example" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in conjunction with that embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0039] Integrated air conditioners can be mainly divided into two types according to different application scenarios: window air conditioners and wall-mounted air conditioners.

[0040] Window air conditioners are usually installed with the help of window frames. Part of the window air conditioner body is indoors and the other part is outdoors. Its characteristic is that it can meet basic cooling and heating needs without taking up too much indoor space.

[0041] Wall-type air conditioners are usually installed through holes in the wall. Part of the body of the wall-type air conditioner is in the room, and the other part is in the wall. Its characteristics are better than installing on the window frame. It does not affect the lighting and can avoid the vibration of the window frame and the noise entering the room.

[0042] The utility model provides an integrated air conditioner. Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of an integrated air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the integrated air conditioner may generally include an indoor unit (not shown in the figure), an outdoor unit 10 and an electric control box 20.

[0043] The indoor unit is primarily responsible for air circulation and temperature regulation. Its housing is typically made of metal or plastic, and air circulates through ductwork or directly into and out of the room. Inside the housing are components such as the evaporator, filter, and ionizer, which together purify, dehumidify, and improve air quality.

[0044] The outdoor unit 10 is primarily responsible for heat transfer within the refrigeration cycle. Inside its housing are components such as a compressor, fan, and condenser. These components transfer heat from the indoor air to the outside air, reducing the temperature. The performance of the outdoor unit 10 directly impacts the air conditioner's cooling efficiency and energy consumption.

[0045] The electronic control box 20 is the control center of the all-in-one air conditioner, integrating functions such as power management, temperature control, and mode switching. The control box 20 receives user commands and controls the operation of the indoor and outdoor units 10, ensuring the air conditioner operates according to user requirements. The performance and stability of the control box 20 are crucial to the overall operation of the air conditioner.

[0046] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of an integrated air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 2 is a schematic side view of an integrated air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 3 It is along Figure 2 A schematic cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line AA in FIG. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic enlarged view of part A.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the outdoor unit 10 includes a rear baffle 110 and a fan bracket 120. The fan bracket 120 is fixed to one side of the rear baffle 110. A mounting base 130 is connected to the fan bracket 120, and a slot 131 is formed at the top of the mounting base 130. The electrical control box 20 is disposed above the fan bracket 120, and a buckle 211 is formed at the bottom of the electrical control box 20. The buckle 211 slides and plugs into the slot 131 to support the electrical control box 20 on the mounting base 130.

[0048] The rear partition 110 forms the main structure of the outdoor unit 10 and is provided with an air inlet. A fan bracket 120 is secured to the front of the rear partition 110 and supports and secures the outdoor fan, ensuring stable operation. The slot 131 at the top of the mounting base 130 slides into the latch 211 at the bottom of the electrical control box 20, supporting the electrical control box 20 on the mounting base 130.

[0049] In this way, it is possible to achieve a quick and stable installation of the electric control box 20. This installation method not only simplifies the installation steps, reduces the time and labor costs required for installation, but also improves the installation quality and reduces the risk of failure caused by improper installation.

[0050] In addition, since no fixing parts such as screws are required during the installation process, possible loosening and falling problems are avoided, further enhancing the overall stability of the outdoor unit 10.

[0051] In some embodiments, the electric control box 20 may be horizontally disposed along the transverse direction of the outdoor unit 10 , that is, the electric control box 20 is placed horizontally between the outdoor unit 10 and the top of the indoor unit.

[0052] The horizontal arrangement of the electrical control box 20 facilitates heat dissipation. Because the electrical control box 20 houses a large number of electronic components, these components generate heat during operation. This horizontal arrangement provides a larger heat dissipation area and improved heat dissipation, thereby ensuring stable operation of the electronic components and extending their service life.

[0053] This layout makes full use of space, optimizes the overall structure, and avoids the electric control box 20 occupying additional vertical space, making the overall size of the integrated air conditioner more compact and more in line with the decorative style of modern homes.

[0054] In addition, this layout also takes into account the convenience of repair and maintenance. When the electric control box 20 needs to be maintained or parts need to be replaced, the horizontal arrangement makes the operation more convenient, and maintenance personnel can more easily approach the electric control box 20 to perform necessary inspections and operations.

[0055] In some embodiments, the buckle 211 and the slot 131 can be slidably connected along the horizontal direction of the outdoor unit 10. Specifically, the buckle 211 can be inserted into the slot 131 from left to right or from right to left. This lateral sliding connection makes the installation and removal of the electrical control box 20 very simple and intuitive. When the electrical control box 20 needs to be replaced or repaired, the user or maintenance personnel simply pulls the electrical control box 20 outward from one side without removing other components between the indoor and outdoor units 10.

[0056] The benefit of this design is that it significantly reduces the difficulty and complexity of repair and replacement. Traditional installation methods may require disassembling multiple components to access the electrical control box 20, but this transverse sliding connection eliminates this requirement. This not only saves repair time and labor costs, but also reduces the risk of damage caused by improper operation.

[0057] In some embodiments, the buckle 211 and the slot 131 can also be connected by sliding along the depth direction of the outdoor unit 10. Specifically, the buckle 211 can be inserted into the slot 131 from the front to the back. This depth-direction sliding connection also makes the installation process more intuitive and simple. The user or maintenance personnel only needs to push the buckle 211 into the slot 131 in the predetermined direction, without complicated operation or adjustment.

[0058] The advantage of this design is that after the entire unit is installed, the electrical control box 20 is firmly secured between the indoor and outdoor units 10, effectively preventing the risk of the clip 211 accidentally falling out of the slot 131, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the electrical control box 20. Even in complex or vibrating environments, the electrical control box 20 remains in its installed position, effectively ensuring the normal operation of the air conditioner.

[0059] In the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings of the present invention, the buckle 211 is inserted into the slot 131 from right to left.

[0060] In some embodiments, the slot 131 has a first slot section 131a and a second slot section 131b along the insertion direction, wherein the first slot section 131a is taller than the second slot section 131b. The buckle 211 has a first buckle section 211a and a second buckle section 211b along the insertion direction, wherein the first buckle section 211a and the second buckle section 211b are adapted to be inserted into the first slot section 131a and the second slot section 131b, respectively.

[0061] That is to say, the slot 131 is cleverly divided into a first slot section 131a and a second slot section 131b. At the same time, the buckle 211 is also divided into a first buckle section 211a and a second buckle section 211b. These two buckles are perfectly matched with the two slot sections of the slot 131 in shape and size. When the first buckle section 211a is inserted into the first slot section 131a, the second buckle section 211b is also inserted into the second slot section 131b.

[0062] This design not only provides enough space for the buckle 211 to be inserted smoothly, but also greatly enhances the stability of the connection between the electrical control box 20 and the rear partition 110, so that the buckle 211 can stay stably in the predetermined position after insertion, effectively preventing the electrical control box 20 from loosening, shifting, and other problems caused by unstable connection.

[0063] Reference Figure 4The bottom walls of the first and second slot sections 131a and 131b are flush, and the top wall of the first slot section 131a is higher than the top wall of the second slot section 131b, similar to forming a stepped structure within the slot 131. The buckle 211 partially extends downward from the bottom of the electrical control box 20 and then extends horizontally to the left to form a first buckle section 211a. The distal end of the first buckle section 211a extends downward and then horizontally to the left to form a second buckle section 211b.

[0064] Furthermore, a gentle slope is formed between the first buckle section 211a and the second buckle section 211b. This gentle slope design can avoid stress concentration between the first buckle section 211a and the second buckle section 211b, reducing the risk of fracture at the connection between the first buckle section 211a and the second buckle section 211b. Accordingly, a gentle slope is formed between the top walls of the first groove section 131a and the second groove section 131b, and the contour of this gentle slope is compatible with the contour of the aforementioned skin change. In this way, the first buckle section 211a and the second buckle section 211b can be tightly fitted within the first groove section 131a and the second groove section 131b, which helps to achieve complete fixation and position limiting of the electric control box 20. This multi-stage position limiting design not only improves the stability of installation, but also makes the disassembly process more convenient and safe.

[0065] Figure 5 is a schematic top view of the rear partition 110, the fan bracket 120 and the mounting base 130, Figure 6 It is along Figure 5 A schematic cross-sectional view of the mounting base 130 taken along the section line BB in FIG. Figure 7 is a schematic structural diagram of the electric control box 20 at a first viewing angle, Figure 8 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the electric control box 20 at a second viewing angle.

[0066] In some embodiments, a reinforcing rib 211c is connected between the top of the first and second buckle sections 211a, 211b and the bottom of the electric control box 20. A clearance opening 132 is defined at the top of the mounting base 130 to allow the reinforcing rib 211c to extend into the mounting base 130. The clearance opening 132 is primarily provided to allow the reinforcing rib 211c to pass through, allowing the first and second buckle sections 211a, 211b to be smoothly inserted into place.

[0067] Specifically, the reinforcing rib 211c can not only improve the connection strength between the first buckle 211a, the second buckle 211b and the electric control box 20, but also improve the rigidity and deformation resistance of the overall structure, and effectively disperse and withstand possible external forces when necessary.

[0068] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 7The clearance opening 132 is a long strip, and its width is approximately the same as the width of the reinforcing rib 211c. The design of the clearance opening 132 ensures that the reinforcing rib 211c will not interfere with or affect other parts of the mounting base 130 during the insertion of the buckle 211, thereby ensuring the compactness and functionality of the overall structure.

[0069] The combined design of the reinforcing ribs 211c and the clearance opening 132 provides a more secure and reliable connection between the electric control box 20 and the mounting base 130, effectively resisting external vibrations and shocks and extending the service life. Furthermore, this design improves installation convenience and efficiency, and reduces maintenance costs.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first buckle 211 a , the second buckle 211 b , the reinforcing rib 211 c and the electric control box 20 are an integrated structure.

[0071] On the one hand, the integrated structure significantly enhances the overall strength and stability of the buckle 211. Because the first buckle section 211a, the second buckle section 211b, and the reinforcing rib 211c are integrally formed with the electrical control box 20, the connection between them is more secure, eliminating the risk of breakage or detachment due to prolonged use or external factors. This design allows the electrical control box 20 to better withstand various external forces and vibrations, improving the stability and reliability of the entire device.

[0072] Furthermore, the integrated structure simplifies production and installation. If the buckle 211 and the electrical control box 20 were designed as separate components, multiple parts would be required for assembly, increasing production costs and installation difficulty while also potentially introducing errors and instability during installation. The integrated structure avoids these issues. The components are formed in one go during production, and installation requires only the entire electrical control box 20 to be fixed to the mounting base 130, significantly improving production efficiency and installation quality.

[0073] In some embodiments, the reinforcing rib 211c may be a hollow structure. Figure 8 As shown, the hollow structure can effectively reduce the weight of the reinforcing rib 211c, thereby reducing the weight of the entire electrical control box 20 to a certain extent. This is very important for applications where weight control is required. At the same time, the hollow structure also retains sufficient strength and rigidity, allowing the reinforcing rib 211c to enhance structural stability without adding excessive mass burden.

[0074] Furthermore, one or more ribs may be provided within the reinforcing rib 211c. The provision of these ribs further enhances the structural strength of the reinforcing rib 211c. These ribs form a support structure within the reinforcing rib 211c, enhancing its resistance to external forces and pressures and effectively preventing deformation and breakage. This design ensures that the reinforcing rib 211c maintains excellent load-bearing capacity and stability while maintaining its lightweight.

[0075] In some embodiments, the width of the buckle 211 can be equal to or slightly smaller than the width of the slot 131 to ensure a tight fit between the buckle 211 and the slot 131. Since the widths are roughly the same, the buckle 211 can be fully embedded in the slot 131, leaving no extra space or gap in the slot 131 for the buckle 211 to wiggle left or right. This tight fit can enhance the installation stability of the electric control box 20 and effectively prevent displacement due to vibration or external forces.

[0076] Since the width of the buckle 211 and the slot 131 are substantially the same, users or maintenance personnel do not need to perform complex adjustments or positioning, and can simply align the buckle 211 and insert it directly into the slot 131. This design not only improves installation efficiency, but also reduces the possibility of installation errors.

[0077] In addition, the close fit between the buckle 211 and the slot 131 allows them to withstand external pressure and vibration together, thus enhancing the rigidity and stability of the overall structure. This design allows the electric control box 20 to better resist the influence of external factors and extend its service life.

[0078] In some embodiments, guide surfaces 211d may be provided on both sides of the insertion end of the second buckle section 211b. These guide surfaces 211d guide the second buckle section 211b for smoother insertion into the slot 131. During insertion, the guide surfaces 211d automatically adjust the direction and angle of the second buckle section 211b to align it with the entrance of the slot 131, thereby reducing resistance and friction during insertion. This not only improves installation convenience but also reduces the risk of installation difficulties or damage due to improper operation.

[0079] In addition, the guide surface 211d can also reduce noise and vibration during the installation process. Since the insertion process is smoother, the noise and vibration caused by friction or impact of the second buckle 211b are reduced, which improves the user experience and makes the insertion of the second buckle 211b more stable.

[0080] In some embodiments, a receiving groove 133 is formed at the top of the mounting base 130. This groove 133 communicates with the insertion end of the slot 131 and includes a top opening or a side opening that allows the clip 211 to extend into the mounting base 130. The design of the receiving groove 133 provides additional space for the insertion of the clip 211. When the clip 211 is installed along the insertion end of the slot 131, the receiving groove 133 can accommodate a portion of the clip 211, ensuring that the clip 211 can enter the slot 131 smoothly and unobstructed. This helps simplify the installation process, reduce installation difficulty, and improve installation efficiency.

[0081] The provision of a top opening or a side opening in the receiving groove 133 allows for greater flexibility in inserting the clip 211. Depending on the specific installation environment and requirements, either the top opening or the side opening can be selected as the insertion channel for the clip 211. This design not only enhances installation convenience but also allows the mounting base 130 to adapt to various installation scenarios and conditions.

[0082] In some embodiments, the fan bracket 120 may include a fixing portion 121 and at least one connecting portion 122. The fixing portion 121 is coaxially arranged with the air inlet on the rear partition 110 and is used to mount the outdoor fan motor, ensuring that the outdoor fan can be accurately positioned at the air inlet. One end of the connecting portion 122 is connected to the fixing portion 121, and the other end is connected to the rear partition 110, which is used to improve the stability of the fixing portion 121 so that it can effectively withstand the vibration and impact generated by the operation of the outdoor fan. The mounting base 130 extends upward from the top of the fixing portion 121, so that it is tightly integrated with the fan bracket 120 to form a whole.

[0083] The height of the mounting base 130 can be designed according to actual needs. For example, the height of the mounting base 130 can be designed so that the upper surface of the top wall of the electric control box 20 is slightly lower than the upper surface of the top wall of the rear partition 110.

[0084] In some embodiments, a support plate 111 is formed at the bottom of the rear partition 110 and extends below the fixing portion 121. The fan bracket 120 further includes a support portion 123 connected between the fixing portion 121 and the support plate 111. The support plate 111 can provide additional support for the fixing portion 121 through the support portion 123, sharing the load-bearing pressure of the connecting portion 122, helping to resist vibration and impact caused by the operation of the fan, and ensuring stable operation of the outdoor fan.

[0085] The additional support portion 123 connected between the fixing portion 121 and the supporting plate 111 also helps to strengthen the connection strength between the fan bracket 120 and the rear partition 110. The design of the support portion 123 can be adjusted and optimized according to actual needs to achieve optimal support effect and stability.

[0086] In some embodiments, the top of the rear partition 110 has a lap plate 112 extending toward the electric control box 20 , and the top of the electric control box 20 has an extension 212 toward the rear partition 110 . The extension 212 is at least partially supported on the lap plate 112 .

[0087] The extension 212 and the lap plate 112 can extend in the lateral direction of the indoor unit. During installation, the extension 212 of the electric control box 20 is supported on the lap plate 112 of the rear partition 110. The lap plate 112 not only effectively shares part of the weight of the electric control box 20 and reduces the burden on the connection between the mounting base 130 and the clip 211, but also significantly enhances the installation stability of the electric control box 20.

[0088] Through the cooperation of the lap plate 112 and the extension portion 212 , the electric control box 20 can be more stably fixed on the outdoor unit 10 , effectively preventing loosening or displacement caused by factors such as vibration and temperature changes.

[0089] At this point, those skilled in the art should recognize that, although multiple exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications consistent with the principles of the present invention can be directly determined or deduced from the contents disclosed herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be understood and deemed to cover all such other variations or modifications.
