[0031] The adapter box 200 is applied to the air conditioner outdoor unit, one end of the connecting wire is electrically connected to the electric control box 100 of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and the other end of the connecting wire is electrically connected to the connecting part from the first avoidance area 232, and the part between the two ends of the connecting wire is positioned at the wire straightening part 231. This scheme straightens the connecting wire through the wire straightening part 231 to ensure that the connecting wire is neat and not messy; moreover, since the wire straightening part 231 corresponds to the wiring part 222 and is exposed to the outside, it is also convenient to position the part between the two ends of the connecting wire at the wire straightening part 231.
[0032] In some examples, such as Figures 2 to 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a wiring slot is convexly provided on the side of the box cover 230 facing away from the box body 210, and the line-straightening part 231 includes the wiring slot, and the part between the two ends of the connecting line is inserted into the wiring slot from the notch of the wiring slot. Alternatively, a bending rib is provided on the side of the box cover 230 facing away from the box body 210, one end of the bending rib is fixedly connected to the box cover 230, and the other end is spaced from the box cover 230 to form the notch of the wiring slot, and the area enclosed by the bending rib and the box cover 230 forms the wiring slot. This solution has a simple structure and is easy to implement.
[0033] In some examples, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the connection part 222 is a connection terminal, and the other end of the connection line is provided with a plug, which is plugged into the connection terminal.

The edge of the side panel of the box body 210 is inserted into the slot 252, and the first buckle 253 is snapped into the buckle position 251. The mouth wall of the slot 252 cooperates with the side panel of the box body 210 to limit the relative position of the first buckle 253 and the buckle position 251, thereby preventing the first buckle 253 and the buckle position 251 from being disengaged. In this solution, the box body 210 and the box cover 230 have higher structural strength and better stability after being assembled.
[0036] In some examples, such as Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the first buckle 253 is a convex rib, which is located on the outer side of the side plate of the box body 210. The edge of the box cover 230 is convexly provided with a buckle slot toward the box body 210, and the buckle position 251 includes a buckle slot. Among them, the buckle position 251, the bayonet 252 and the first buckle 253 include multiple groups arranged at intervals, which can better ensure that the box body 210 and the box cover 230 are firmly assembled together.
[0037] The edge of the side plate of the box body 210 and the wall of the bayonet 252 are arranged in a clearance fit or transition fit manner. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the wall of the bayonet 252 is provided with a guide portion 254, and the guide portion 254 guides the edge of the side plate of the box body 210 to be inserted into the bayonet 252. It can be, for example Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the mouth wall of the bayonet 252 located on the outside of the box body 210 is provided with a guiding bevel, and the end face of the mouth wall of the bayonet 252 located on the inside of the box body 210 is located between the two ends of the guiding bevel, and the distance a between the end of the guiding bevel adjacent to the end wall of the box body 210 and the end face of the mouth wall of the bayonet 252 located on the inside of the box body 210 is set to 0.5mm~2mm, and the distance b between the end of the guiding bevel away from the end wall of the box body 210 and the end face of the mouth wall of the bayonet 252 located on the inside of the box body 210 is set to not less than 0.2mm. This design scheme can ensure that the edge of the side panel of the box body 210 directly slides into the bayonet 252 and will not cross the bayonet 252 and abut against the end face of the mouth wall of the bayonet 252 located on the inside of the box body 210.
[0038] In some examples, such as Figures 2 to 5 , Figure 8 As shown, one of the side panels of the box body 210 and the edge of the box cover 230 is also provided with a first stud 261, and the other is provided with a first through hole 262, the first through hole 262 corresponds to the first stud 261, and a screw passes through the first through hole 262 and is tightened on the first stud 261, so as to strengthen and fix the box body 210 and the box cover 230, which can further improve the structural strength of the box body 210 and the box cover 230 after assembly.
[0039] In one embodiment, if Figures 2 to 5 , Figure 8 As shown, the buckle position 251, the bayonet 252 and the first buckle 253 include three groups arranged at intervals, two of which (the buckle position 251, the bayonet 252 and the first buckle 253) are located at a group of opposite side walls of the box body 210, and the other group (the buckle position 251, the bayonet 252 and the first buckle 253) is located at one side wall of another group of opposite side walls of the box body 210.
