DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the embodiments of the utility model will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other arbitrarily without conflict.

[0028] The ceiling machine provided by the utility model embodiment is as follows Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it includes: a chassis 100; a water receiving tray 200, which is arranged at the opening of the chassis 100 and opposite to the bottom wall of the chassis 100, and the water receiving tray 200 is provided with a first avoidance opening 210; an electric control box assembly 300, which is arranged at the first avoidance opening 210 from the opening of the chassis 100 toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100; and a first connecting line 410, which passes between the electric control box assembly 300 and the bottom wall of the chassis 100 and is electrically connected to the electric control box assembly 300.

[0029] In the ceiling machine, the first connection line 410 is arranged between the electric control box assembly 300 and the bottom wall of the chassis 100, which defines the routing path of the first connection line 410 and avoids the first connection line 410 from being messy and untidy. Moreover, after the ceiling machine is installed on the ceiling, the electric control box assembly 300 can be directly disassembled and assembled from the first avoidance opening 210 below the ceiling machine without disassembling the water tray 200, so that the maintenance process of the electric control box assembly 300 is simpler.

[0030] In some examples, such as Figure 5 As shown, the ceiling machine also includes: a second connection line 420, which is located radially outside the electric control box assembly 300 in the radial direction of the chassis 100 and is electrically connected to the electric control box assembly 300. This solution limits the routing path of the second connection line 420 to avoid messy and untidy routing of the second connection line 420.

[0031] In some examples, such as Figure 5As shown, the first connection line 410 extends from one end of the electric control box assembly 300 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 into the electric control box assembly 300 and is electrically connected to the electric control box assembly 300, and the second connection line 420 extends from the other end of the electric control box assembly 300 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 into the electric control box assembly 300 and is electrically connected to the electric control box assembly 300. Among them, the first connection line 410 is set as a strong current connection line, and the second connection line 420 is set as a weak current connection line. This solution separates the first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 to avoid mutual interference between strong current and weak current.

[0032] In some examples, such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the electric control box assembly 300 includes: a first box body 310, which is vertically arranged in the up-down direction and installed at the first avoidance opening 210 from the opening of the chassis 100 toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100; and an electric control board 320, which is vertically arranged in the up-down direction and arranged in the first box body 310, and one end of the electric control board 320 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 has a first interface 321, and the other end of the electric control board 320 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 has a second interface 322, the first connection line 410 extends into the first box body 310 and is electrically connected to the first interface 321, and the second connection line 420 extends into the first box body 310 and is electrically connected to the second interface 322. Among them, the first interface 321 is set as a strong current interface, and the second interface 322 is set as a weak current interface. In this solution, the first connection line 410 and the first interface 321 are located at one end of the electric control board 320 located in the circumference of the chassis 100, and the second connection line 420 and the second interface 322 are located at the other end of the electric control board 320 located in the circumference of the chassis 100, which can better avoid mutual interference between strong electricity and weak electricity.

[0033] In some examples, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the chassis 100 is provided with a third wiring structure 110, one end of the first box body 310 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 has a first wiring structure 311, and the other end of the first box body 310 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 has a second wiring structure 312, the first connecting line 410 is positioned at the first wiring structure 311 and the third wiring structure 110, and the second connecting line 420 is positioned at the second wiring structure 312, so that strong electricity and weak electricity are less likely to interfere with each other. It can be that the first wiring structure 311 is set as a first wiring groove, which is located at the inner side of one end of the first box body 310 located in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100, the second wiring structure 312 is set as a second wiring groove, which is located at the inner side of the other end of the first box body 310 located in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100, and the third wiring structure 110 is set as a third wiring groove, and the radial inner end of the first box body 310 located in the radial direction of the chassis 100 is penetrated to form a fourth through opening 314. This scheme has a simple structure, and the first connecting line 410 can be easily inserted into the first wiring groove from the fourth through opening 314, and the second connecting line 420 can be easily inserted into the second wiring groove from the fourth through opening 314. The ceiling machine also includes a water pump 800, which is located radially outside the first box body 310 and has a water pump connecting line 810. The end of the electric control board 320 located in the circumference of the chassis 100 also has a third interface and a fourth interface. The water pump connecting line 810 is positioned in the first wiring structure 110 and is electrically connected to the third interface. The fourth interface is used to connect the power cord.

[0034] In some examples, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, a first through hole 313 is formed through one side of the bottom wall of the first box body 310 facing away from the chassis 100, and the first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 both extend into the first box body 310 from the first through hole 313. In this way, after the ceiling machine is installed in the suspended ceiling, the first through hole 313 faces downward, and the first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 both extend into the first box body 310 from the first through hole 313 and extend upward to be connected to the first interface 321 and the second interface 322 respectively. Condensed water will not flow along the first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 to the electric control board 320, and it is also convenient to disassemble and install the first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 on the electric control board 320. The water pump connection line 810 also extends into the first box body 310 from the first through hole 313, and condensed water will not flow along the water pump connection line 810 to the electric control board 320.

[0035] In some examples, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the electric control box assembly 300 also includes: a second box body 330, the second box body 330 is installed at the first avoidance opening 210 from the opening of the chassis 100 toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100, and the side of the bottom wall of the second box body 330 facing away from the chassis 100 is penetrated to form a second through opening 331, and the first box body 310 is installed in the second box body 330 from the second through opening 331 toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100; and a box cover 340, the box cover 340 is installed at the second through opening 331 from the opening of the chassis 100 toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100, and the first box body 310 is located in the space enclosed by the second box body 330 and the box cover 340. In this way, after the ceiling machine is installed on the suspended ceiling, when the electric control box assembly 300 needs to be disassembled for maintenance, there is no need to disassemble the water tray 200. After removing the lower box cover 340 under the ceiling machine, the first box body 310 can be taken out downward in the second box body 330 to realize maintenance of the electric control board 320 in the first box body 310. This solution makes the maintenance process of the electric control box assembly 300 simpler.

[0036] In some examples, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the box cover 340 is a folding structure and includes a cover plate 341 and an insertion plate 342. The radial inner end of the second box body 330 located in the radial direction of the chassis 100 is provided with a socket 333, and the opening 334 of the socket 333 faces away from the bottom wall of the chassis 100. The insertion plate 342 is inserted into the socket 333 from the opening 334 of the socket toward the bottom wall of the chassis 100. The cover plate 341 is covered at the second through hole 331 and enclosed with the mouth wall of the second through hole 331 to form a wire hole. The first connection line 410 and the second connection line 420 extend into the first box body 310 through the wire hole. It can be, as Figure 6 As shown, the radial inner end of the second box body 330 is penetrated to form a third through opening 335, and the two ends of the third through opening 335 located in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100 form two flanges 332 folded inwardly into the third through opening 335, and a socket 333 is formed between the two flanges 332 and the wall of the fourth through opening 314 of the first box body 310, and the plug-in plate 342 closes the third through opening 335. This solution has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0037] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 5As shown, the ceiling machine also includes: an open annular heat exchanger 500, a water collecting pan 200 in a ring shape, the heat exchanger 500 is arranged between the chassis 100 and the water collecting pan 200, and the opening formed by the heat exchanger 500 in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100 is a second avoidance opening 510, the first avoidance opening 210 and the second avoidance opening 510 are opposite to each other in the axial direction of the chassis 100, and the electric control box assembly 300 is located at the first avoidance opening 210 and the second avoidance opening 510 at the same time, so that the electric control box assembly 300 will not block the fins of the heat exchanger 500, not only the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 500 is higher and the heat exchange effect is better, but also the air outlet of the ceiling machine is larger and the air outlet noise generated is smaller.

[0038] Among them, Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the two ends of the second box body 330 located in the circumferential direction of the bottom plate 100 are fixed to the two side plates of the heat exchanger 500 at the second avoidance opening 510, and the cover plate 341 of the box cover 340 is fixed to the water receiving tray 200. Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a motor 600 is provided inside the area enclosed by the heat exchanger 500, and the motor 600 has a motor connection line, and a panel 700 is installed at the opening of the chassis 100. The strong current connection line includes the motor connection line, etc., and the weak current connection line includes the water level detection device connection line and the temperature detection device connection line.

[0039] Of course, the first avoidance opening 210 and the second avoidance opening 510 may be offset in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100. In this case, the electric control box assembly 300 is located in the first avoidance opening 210 and on the inner side of the heat exchanger 500. The second avoidance opening 510 is located on one side of the electric control box assembly 300 in the circumferential direction of the chassis 100. However, in this solution, the electric control box assembly 300 will block a portion of the fins of the heat exchanger 500. This solution can also achieve the purpose of the present application. Its purpose does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and will not be repeated here. It should also fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0042] To sum up, in the ceiling machine provided by the embodiment of the utility model, the first connecting line is arranged between the electric control box assembly and the bottom wall of the chassis, which limits the routing path of the first connecting line and avoids the messy and untidy routing of the first connecting line; moreover, after the ceiling machine is installed on the ceiling, the electric control box assembly can be directly disassembled and assembled from the first avoidance opening below the ceiling machine without disassembling the water tray, so that the maintenance process of the electric control box assembly is simpler.
