[0035] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 According to an embodiment of the utility model, the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet includes:

[0036] Plate 100;

[0037] A mounting groove 110, the mounting groove 110 is provided on the outer surface of the plate body 100, a mounting hole 120 is provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, the mounting hole 120 is used for screws to pass through, and the mounting groove 110 is used to accommodate the nut of the screw;

[0038] The sliding cover 200 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 110 so that the sliding cover 200 can cover the opening of the mounting groove 110 .

[0039] It is understandable that when the installer needs to install the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet on the air conditioner cabinet, the installer can first align the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet with the air conditioner cabinet, put the screws for fixing into the mounting groove 110 on the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet, and pass the screws through the mounting holes 120 on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110. Then tighten the screws so that the nuts of the screws press against the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, thereby fixing the inner side of the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet on the air conditioner cabinet to complete the installation of the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet. After the air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet is installed, the installer can install the sliding cover 200 on the inner wall of the mounting groove 110 so that the sliding cover 200 can cover the opening of the mounting groove 110. When the air conditioner cabinet is started, a large amount of air will pass through the air inlet on the plate body 100 and enter the air conditioner cabinet, so that the air flow rate near the plate body 100 is accelerated. Since the slide cover 200 blocks the opening of the mounting slot 110, the screws in the mounting slot 110 are prevented from being exposed to the fast-flowing air, and the surface protective layer of the screws is prevented from being damaged by the fast-flowing air, thereby preventing the screws from rusting, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the air inlet panel connection. On the other hand, the slide cover 200 blocks the screws in the mounting slot 110, preventing the screws from being directly exposed, making the air conditioner cabinet more beautiful.

[0040] It should be explained that the reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the present invention, the inner side of the plate body 100 refers to the side of the plate body 100 used for connecting with the air conditioning cabinet, and the outer side of the plate body 100 refers to the side of the plate body 100 away from the air conditioning cabinet. The inner wall of the mounting groove 110 is composed of a bottom wall and four side walls.

[0041] refer to Figures 2 to 7The air inlet panel of the air conditioner cabinet also includes a buckle assembly, and the sliding cover 200 is detachably buckled to the inner wall of the installation groove 110 through the buckle assembly. As an embodiment of the utility model, the buckle assembly includes a buckle column 150 and a buckle block 210. The side wall of the installation groove 110 is provided with an avoidance hole 130, the buckle column 150 is arranged in the avoidance hole 130, the buckle block 210 is arranged on one end of the sliding cover 200, and the buckle block 210 is provided with a buckle groove 220 for buckling the buckle column 150. It is understandable that when the slide cover 200 needs to be buckled to the inner wall of the installation groove 110, the installer can first place the slide cover 200 in the installation groove 110, so that the buckle block 210 on the slide cover 200 is aligned with the avoidance hole 130 on the side wall of the installation groove 110, and then push the slide cover 200 to move toward the buckle column 150. Since the surface of the buckle column 150 is an arc surface that can play a guiding role, the buckle block 210 pressed against the buckle column 150 can be deformed. Continue to push the slide cover 200, so that the buckle block 210 is separated from the buckle column 150, and the buckle column 150 is buckled in the buckle groove 220, and the buckle block 210 is inserted into the avoidance hole 130, thereby completing the installation of the slide cover 200 on the inner wall of the installation groove 110.

[0042] refer to Figures 4 to 6 , a first guiding slope 211 is provided on the side of the buckle block 210 facing the buckle column 150, and a side wall of the buckle groove 220 close to the first guiding slope 211 is a second guiding slope 221. It can be understood that during the process of installing or removing the slide cover 200, both the first guiding slope 211 and the second guiding slope 221 can abut against the buckle column 150, so that the buckle column 150 can be more easily buckled into the buckle groove 220, and the buckle column 150 can be more easily detached from the buckle groove 220, thereby improving the convenience of installing and removing the slide cover 200.

[0043] Specifically, when the sliding cover 200 needs to be removed from the inner wall of the installation groove 110, the installer presses the sliding cover 200 and slides the sliding cover 200 in a direction away from the buckle column 150, and the second guide inclined surface 221 presses against the buckle column 150, causing the buckle block 210 to deform. The sliding cover 200 is further slid, so that the second guide inclined surface 221 is separated from the buckle column 150, and the buckle column 150 is separated from the buckle groove 220, thereby completing the removal of the sliding cover 200.

[0044] refer to Figures 4 to 7The buckle assembly further includes a limit block 240. A limit hole 140 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 110 opposite to the buckle column 150. The limit block 240 is provided on the other end of the slide cover 200. The limit block 240 is used to pass through the limit hole 140. It can be understood that when the slide cover 200 needs to be buckled to the inner wall of the mounting groove 110, the installer can first place the slide cover 200 in the mounting groove 110, so that the first guide inclined surface 211 on the buckle block 210 on the slide cover 200 is aligned with the avoidance hole 130 on the side wall of the mounting groove 110, so that the limit block 240 on the slide cover 200 is aligned with the limit hole 140 on the side wall of the mounting groove 110, and then push the slide cover 200 to move toward the buckle column 150, so that the buckle column 150 is buckled in the buckle groove 220, so that the limit block 240 is used to pass through the limit hole 140 on the side wall of the mounting groove 110. The hole wall of the limiting hole 140 can abut against the limiting block 240, so that the hole wall of the limiting hole 140 can limit the limiting block 240, and then under the limiting effect of the limiting block 240 and the hole wall of the limiting hole 140, the sliding cover 200 can be prevented from shaking relative to the installation groove 110, thereby improving the stability of the buckling of the sliding cover 200. As an embodiment of the utility model, a third guiding inclined surface 241 is provided on the side of the limiting block 240 facing the buckle block 210. It can be understood that the third guiding inclined surface 241 can play a guiding role, so that the limiting block 240 can more easily enter the limiting hole 140 on the installation groove 110.

[0045] refer to Figures 4 to 6 , a baffle 230 is provided on the sliding cover 200, and a limiting block 240 is connected to the other end of the sliding cover 200 through the baffle 230, and the baffle 230 is used to cover the limiting hole 140. It can be understood that when the sliding cover 200 is buckled on the buckle column 150 on the mounting groove 110 through the buckle block 210, and the limiting block 240 is inserted into the limiting hole 140 on the side wall of the mounting groove 110, the baffle 230 can abut against the side wall of the mounting groove 110, so that the baffle 230 can play a positioning role for the sliding cover 200. On the other hand, the baffle 230 can cover the limiting hole 140 on the side wall of the mounting groove 110, so that the baffle 230 can block the external air from passing through the limiting hole 140 and blowing into the mounting groove 110 to a certain extent, further preventing the screws in the mounting groove 110 from contacting with the external air, and further reducing the possibility that the screws in the mounting groove 110 will rust.

[0046] refer to Figures 4 to 6, a limiting plate 160 is provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, and a supporting plate 250 is provided on the sliding cover 200, and a gap is left between the limiting plate 160 and the buckle column 150, and the supporting plate 250 is used to abut against the limiting plate 160, so that the surface of the sliding cover 200 away from the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 can be connected with the outer side of the plate body 100. It can be understood that when the sliding cover 200 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 110, the supporting plate 250 on the sliding cover 200 will abut against the limiting plate 160 on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110. Under the limiting action of the limiting plate 160 and the supporting plate 250, the surface of the sliding cover 200 away from the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 can be connected with the outer side of the plate body 100, that is, the surface of the sliding cover 200 will not be convex or concave compared with the outer side of the plate body 100, which is conducive to improving the overall aesthetics of the back plate of the air conditioner cabinet. On the other hand, there are two support plates 250 and two limit plates 160, and the two support plates 250 are respectively in contact with the two limit plates 160, and the two support plates 250 are respectively arranged on both sides of the slide cover 200. The support plates 250 also play a supporting role for the slide cover 200, preventing the slide cover 200 from deforming during the process of pressing and sliding the slide cover 200 by the installer, which is beneficial to improving the overall strength of the slide cover 200. It should be explained that in the present utility model, the surface of the slide cover 200 away from the bottom wall of the installation groove 110 can be connected with the outer side surface of the plate body 100, and the connection here means that there is a smooth transition between the surface of the slide cover 200 and the outer side surface of the plate body 100.

[0047] Furthermore, a gap is left between the limit plate 160 and the buckle column 150. When the anti-slip structure 260 is pressed, the limit plate 160 and the support plate 250 will not be completely blocked. The gap between the limit plate 160 and the buckle column 150 provides space for the sliding cover 200 to elastically deform downward, so that the buckle column 150 can be more easily detached from the buckle groove 220, thereby improving the convenience of disassembling the sliding cover 200.

[0048] refer to Figure 6 , an anti-skid structure 260 is provided on the surface of the sliding cover 200 away from the bottom wall of the installation groove 110, and the anti-skid structure 260 is in the shape of an arrow. It can be understood that the installer can slide the sliding cover 200 through the anti-skid structure 260 to prevent the installer from slipping during the sliding of the sliding cover 200. On the other hand, the anti-skid structure 260 is in the shape of an arrow. Specifically, the anti-skid structure 260 in the shape of an arrow points in the direction away from the buckle column 150 to remind the installer that the direction away from the buckle column 150 is the direction of sliding and removing the sliding cover 200. Specifically, the anti-skid structure 260 includes an arrow-shaped protrusion.

[0049] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0050] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and technicians familiar with the field may make equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention. These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
