Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a panel mesh cover and an outdoor unit casing. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the panel mesh of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner at home and abroad mostly adopts a structure in which annular ribs and radial ribs are interlaced. During the operation of the outdoor unit, the wind enters from the condenser side and is blown out from the mesh through the axial flow fan blades. In order to ensure the strength, the mesh mostly adopts thick annular ribs, which leads to a large wind resistance at the air outlet, resulting in a small air volume, and also causes the phenomenon of air rebounding and backflow, resulting in a turbulent wind field, which in turn affects the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser. Utility Model Content

[0003] The first purpose of the utility model is to provide a panel mesh cover to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the mesh cover has large wind resistance, resulting in small air volume and low heat exchange efficiency.

Furthermore, the first rib and the third rib are arranged alternately in the radial direction, and in each circle of ribs, there are only first ribs or only third ribs; or, in the same circle of ribs, the first rib and the third rib are arranged alternately; or, the first rib and the third rib are arranged alternately in both the radial direction and the circumferential direction.

[0016] Furthermore, the first rib, the second rib and the third rib are an integrated structure.

[0017] In this technical solution, the first rib, the third rib and the second rib are firmly connected, which can ensure that the mesh cover has good structural strength as a whole. Furthermore, the first rib, the second rib and the third rib are made of a plate by stamping and other processes, which is simple in process and high in production efficiency.

Moreover, the first rib 110 greatly reduces the wind blocking area, which can effectively prevent the air from being rebounded and flowing back, thereby helping to further ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser.

[0035] In this embodiment, both ends of the first rib 110 are torsion structures and the torsion direction is consistent. In this arrangement, the end of the first rib 110 is transitionally connected to the second rib 120 by torsion, and there are no sharp corners or other structures at the connection between the first rib 110 and the second rib 120, which is safer. Moreover, both ends of the first rib 110 are torsion structures and the torsion direction is consistent, so the main part of the first rib 110 can be parallel to the air outlet direction, thereby minimizing wind resistance. "The main part of the first rib 110" refers to the part of the first rib 110 after removing the torsion parts at both ends.

[0036] It should be noted here that in other embodiments of the present application, both ends of the first rib 110 may also be directly fixedly connected to the second rib 120 at an angle of approximately 90°, so that the overall width direction of the first rib 110 is consistent with the air outlet direction.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the torsion surfaces at both ends of the first rib 110 are fan-blade-shaped. The end torsion surfaces of the first rib 110 are fan-blade-shaped, that is, the end torsion fits the wind field, so it is easy to blow out the wind. Moreover, compared with direct 90° torsion, fan-blade-shaped torsion can improve the strength of the ribs, and can also effectively prevent the exposed ribs from cutting the user's fingers, with a high safety factor.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mesh cover portion 100 is circular, the first ribs 110 extend in the circumferential direction, and the first ribs 110 and the second ribs 120 are arranged alternately in the circumferential direction; in the radial direction, a plurality of first ribs 110 are arranged at intervals; the second ribs 120 extend in the radial direction and are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction. In this arrangement, the first ribs 110 and the second ribs 120 are interlaced to form a circular mesh structure, and the first ribs 110 and the second ribs 120 are connected and supported by each other. It should be noted that, Figure 1 As shown, “the second rib 120 extends radially” may not be strictly extended in the radial direction, but may be extended approximately in the radial direction with some deviation, or in other words, the second rib 120 may be arc-shaped.

[0039] Of course, in this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the mesh cover portion 100 further includes a central plate 140 , one end of the second rib 120 is connected to the central plate 140 , and the other end is connected to the panel portion 200 or the outermost rib.

[0040] It should be noted here that, although the mesh cover portion 100 is circular in the present embodiment, in other embodiments of the present application, the shape of the mesh cover portion 100 may vary with the panel portion 200 and process technology requirements, for example, the mesh cover portion 100 may also be rectangular, the first ribs 110 extend in the horizontal direction, and the plurality of first ribs 110 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction; the second ribs 120 extend in the vertical direction, and the plurality of second ribs 120 are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mesh cover 100 further includes third ribs 130, which are arranged in parallel with the first ribs 110, and the third ribs 130 and the first ribs 110 are arranged alternately. In this arrangement, the third ribs 130 play a structural reinforcement role for the mesh cover 100 as a whole.

In this way, the first rib 110, the third rib 130 and the second rib 120 are firmly connected, which can ensure that the mesh cover part 100 has good structural strength as a whole. More specifically, in this embodiment, the first rib 110, the second rib 120 and the third rib 130 are made of a plate by stamping and other processes, which is simple in process and high in production efficiency.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the second rib 120 is provided with a first protrusion 121 along its extension direction; the third rib 130 is provided with a second protrusion 131 along its extension direction. In this arrangement, the structural strength of the second rib 120 and the third rib 130 is improved, which is conducive to ensuring the overall structural strength of the mesh cover 100.

As the radius of the first rib 110 and the third rib 130 increases, the gap between two adjacent second ribs 120 also increases. By providing the auxiliary connecting rib, the structural strength of the outer portion of the mesh cover portion 100 can be improved, and the overall structural strength of the mesh cover portion 100 can be made more uniform.

[0046] More specifically, in this embodiment, the auxiliary connecting ribs are also provided with protrusions having a structural reinforcement function. Moreover, the auxiliary connecting ribs, the first ribs 110, the second ribs 120, the third ribs 130, and the central plate 140 are an integrated structure, that is, the entire mesh cover portion 100 is an integrated structure.
