At the same time, the first connecting part 126 and the second connecting part 23 are reinforced and connected by fasteners, so that the front top plate 12 and the top cover support 22 can be connected more firmly.

[0073] Reference Figure 2-Figure 7According to some embodiments of the present invention, the overflow hole 122 is formed at the first connection portion 126, an overflow groove 232 is formed on the top cover support 22, a portion of the overflow groove 232 is formed at the second connection portion 23 and is located below the overflow hole 122, a first water guide hole is formed on the bottom wall of the overflow groove 232, the first water guide hole is located above the heat exchanger assembly in the casing 100, and the first water guide hole is used to guide the liquid in the overflow groove 232 to the heat exchanger assembly.

[0074] Water on the front top plate 12 can flow into the anti-overflow groove 121, and flow into the overflow hole 122 through the anti-overflow groove 121, and then flow into the overflow groove 232 located below the overflow hole 122 through the overflow hole 122 (for example, when the slot 127 constitutes the overflow hole 122, the water in the anti-overflow groove 121 can flow into the overflow groove 232 located below the overflow hole 122 through the above-mentioned overflow gap), and finally flow to the heat exchanger assembly through the first water guide hole of the overflow groove 232. The condensed water on the heat exchanger assembly can be downwardly collected in the water receiving tray located below the heat exchanger assembly, so that the water on the front top plate 12 can be guided to the heat exchanger assembly and can finally be guided to the water receiving tray, which can further reduce the risk of water on the front top plate 12 flowing into the conductive components in the casing 100, thereby further reducing safety hazards.

[0075] The water flowing into the overflow groove 232 can flow to the heat exchanger bracket of the heat exchanger assembly through the first water guide hole, and can be guided downward to the water receiving tray through the heat exchanger bracket.

[0076] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to 5 and Figure 6 The overflow groove 232 includes a first overflow groove 233 and a second overflow groove 234. The first overflow groove 233 and the second overflow groove 234 are separated by a retaining rib 24. The first overflow groove 233 is formed at the second connecting portion 23. The second overflow groove 234 is located above the heat exchanger assembly. The first water guide hole is formed at the bottom wall of the second overflow groove 234. Water in the front top plate 12 can flow into the anti-overflow groove 121, and flow into the overflow hole 122 through the anti-overflow groove 121, and then flow into the first overflow groove 233 located below the overflow hole 122 through the overflow hole 122 (for example, when the slot 127 constitutes the overflow hole 122, the water in the anti-overflow groove 121 can flow into the first overflow groove 233 located below the overflow hole 122 through the above-mentioned overflow gap). When a certain amount of water accumulates in the first overflow groove 233, it can flow into the second overflow groove 234, and finally flow to the heat exchanger assembly through the first water guide hole of the second overflow groove 234, and flow downward along the heat exchanger assembly to the water receiving tray.

[0077] Optionally, the way in which the water in the first overflow groove 233 flows into the second overflow groove 234 can be achieved in the following manner: for example, when the water level in the first overflow groove 233 is higher than the upper surface of the retaining rib 24, the water in the first overflow groove 233 overflows to the top of the retaining rib 24 and flows into the second overflow groove 234 through the top of the retaining rib 24; for another example, a second water guide hole is provided on the retaining rib 24, and the second water guide hole connects the first overflow groove 233 and the second overflow groove 234, and the water in the first overflow groove 233 can flow into the second overflow groove 234 through the second water guide hole.
