DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The utility model provides a novel air conditioner. To make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] First embodiment

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides an air conditioner 100, which can ensure the electrical safety of the locking structure of the air conditioner 100 during the disassembly and assembly process, avoid safety accidents caused by disassembly and assembly of the air conditioner without power off, and improve the safety of the air conditioner 100.

[0036] The air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment includes a middle frame 110, a lock plate 130, a switch fixing member 150 and an electrical switch seat 170. The outer side of the middle frame 110 is provided with a mounting hole 111 that penetrates to the inner side. The switch fixing member 150 is arranged on the lock plate 130 and is correspondingly assembled in the mounting hole 111, so that the lock plate 130 can be detachably mounted on the outer side of the middle frame 110. The electrical switch seat 170 is arranged on the inner side of the middle frame 110 and extends to the inner side of the mounting hole 111. The switch fixing member 150 contacts the electrical switch seat 170 after passing through the mounting hole 111, wherein the electrical switch seat 170 is used to be in a power-on state when in contact with the switch fixing member 150, and in a power-off state when separated from the switch fixing member 150.

[0037] In this embodiment, the air conditioner 100 can be an indoor unit of the air conditioner, and the air conditioner 100 can also include a crossflow fan blade and a motor, both of which are arranged in the middle frame 110, and the crossflow fan blade and the motor are a detachable transmission connection structure, wherein a movable part is arranged inside the middle frame 110 in this embodiment, and the movable part can be an end cover structure connected to the crossflow fan blade or other parts that need to be disassembled and assembled, and the position adjustment between the crossflow fan blade and the motor can be achieved by adjusting the position of the movable part, such as pulling the movable part outward. At the same time, the end face of the middle frame 110 can also be provided with a clearance opening to facilitate the axial movement of the movable part, thereby driving the axial movement of the crossflow fan blade to achieve assembly and disassembly with the motor. At the same time, the lock plate 130 can be at least partially located at the end of the middle frame 110, which can achieve a locking effect on the clearance opening, thereby achieving position limitation of the movable part and the crossflow fan blade.

[0038] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, a mounting hole 111 is provided on the middle frame 110, and a switch fixing member 150 is provided on the lock plate 130 and is correspondingly assembled in the mounting hole 111, so that the lock plate 130 can be detachably mounted on the outer side of the middle frame 110 to achieve locking, and the electrical switch seat 170 is provided on the inner side of the middle frame 110 and extends to the inner side of the mounting hole 111, and the switch fixing member 150 can pass through the mounting hole 111 and contact the electrical switch seat 170, wherein the electrical switch seat 170 can be in a powered-on state when in contact with the switch fixing member 150, and in a powered-off state when detached from the switch fixing member 150. Compared with the prior art, the utility model sets the electrical switch seat 170 on the inner side of the middle frame 110, and sets the power on and off by whether the switch is fixed in contact or not, which can ensure that the electrical switch seat 170 will be energized only after the lock plate 130 is locked and the switch fixing part 150 is installed in place, and the electrical switch seat 170 can be used as a starting switch for the internal components of the air conditioner, avoiding the start of the air conditioning components in the unlocked state, ensuring the electrical safety of the lock plate 130 in the unlocking / locking action, avoiding safety accidents caused by powering on in the unlocked state or unlocking without powering off, and improving the safety of the air conditioner 100.

[0039] It should be noted that in this embodiment, locking plates 130 can be provided at both ends of the middle frame 110 to lock and limit different movable components on the middle frame 110. In this embodiment, the locking plate 130 at one end is used as an example for description.

[0040] See also Figures 3 to 6The electrical switch base 170 includes a switch base body 171 and a micro switch 173. The switch base body 171 is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the middle frame 110 and extends to the inner side of the mounting hole 111. The micro switch 173 is arranged on the switch base body 171 and corresponds to the mounting hole 111. The micro switch 173 is used to be energized under the support of the switch fixing member 150 and to be de-energized after the switch fixing member 150 is separated. By setting the switch base body 171, the micro switch 173 can be limited and fixed, and the feeding action of the switch fixing member 150 can be positionally limited. At the same time, the micro switch 173 will only be energized under the pressing action of the switch fixing member 150, which can ensure safety on the one hand and ensure that the switch fixing member 150 is locked in place on the other hand.

[0041] In this embodiment, the end of the switch seat body 171 extends to the mounting hole 111, and a receiving groove 175 is provided at the end of the switch seat body 171, the opening direction of the receiving groove 175 faces the mounting hole 111, and the micro switch 173 is installed in the receiving groove 175. Specifically, the switch seat body 171 is cantilevered and suspended in the middle frame 110. For example, the top of the switch seat body 171 can be connected to the middle frame 110, and the bottom extends to correspond to the mounting hole 111. The receiving groove is set at the bottom of the switch seat body 171, and the micro switch 173 is assembled in the receiving groove 175 and connected to other electrical components in the air conditioner 100 through a wire to realize the switching of the electrical components. By providing the receiving groove 175, and the opening of the receiving groove 175 faces the mounting hole 111, the micro switch 173 can be fixed and limited, and at the same time, it is ensured that the micro switch 173 is directly facing the switch fixing member 150, and it is ensured that it can be energized under the support of the switch fixing member 150.

[0042] It should be noted that the micro switch 173 in this embodiment is a precision electronic switch device, which has the characteristics of fast action, small contact spacing and high sensitivity. The micro switch 173 is usually composed of a group of spring contacts, which will move quickly and briefly when they are acted upon by external mechanical force through the transmission element, thereby realizing the connection or disconnection of the circuit. Its basic structure and switching principle can refer to the existing micro switch 173 structure. In addition, the micro switch 173 in this embodiment can be a start-stop switch of the air-conditioning component in the middle frame 110, for example, it can be a safety start-stop switch of the motor, that is, the motor can be powered on only when and only when the micro switch 173 is started, thereby avoiding accidental power-on of the motor during the unlocking process. At the same time, the micro switch 173 can also be an overall power-on safety switch for the entire air conditioner 100, thereby completely eliminating the situation where the air conditioner 100 is powered on during the unlocking process, and ensuring the safety of the air conditioner 100.

[0043] In this embodiment, the contact of the micro switch 173 protrudes toward the mounting hole 111 and partially extends out of the receiving groove 175 to abut against the end surface of the switch fixing member 150. Specifically, the contact of the micro switch 173 is hemispherical and protrudes from the surface of the switch seat 171. The contact of the micro switch 173 is protruded outward and extends out of the receiving groove 175, so that the switch fixing member 150 can preferentially abut against the contact of the micro switch 173 during the abutting process, thereby ensuring the abutting effect and avoiding the switch seat 171 from interfering with the abutting process of the switch fixing member 150. There is no need to consider whether the receiving groove 175 is compatible with the switch fixing member 150, and the assembly requirements are lower.

[0044] In other preferred embodiments of the utility model, the micro switch 173 can also be accommodated in the accommodating groove 175, that is, the micro switch 173 is retracted and installed in the accommodating groove 175, and the size of the accommodating groove 175 is larger than the size of the end of the switch fixing member 150 passing through the mounting hole 111, so that the switch fixing member 150 extends into the accommodating groove 175 and abuts against the micro switch 173. By setting the size of the accommodating groove 175 larger than the size of the switch fixing member 150, the accommodating groove 175 plays a certain guiding role, so that the switch fixing member 150 can extend along the accommodating groove 175 to achieve abutment against the micro switch 173, and the micro switch 173 is accommodated inside the accommodating groove 175 to prevent it from extending out of the accommodating groove 175 and causing damage to the micro switch 173 during the assembly process.

[0045] In this embodiment, one end of the lock plate 130 is hinged to the middle frame 110 and is spaced from the mounting hole 111. The other end of the lock plate 130 is provided with an assembly hole 135. The switch fixing member 150 is assembled in the assembly hole 135 and threadedly assembled in the mounting hole 111, so that the other end of the lock plate 130 is detachably connected to the middle frame 110. By hingedly connecting one end of the lock plate 130 and detachably connecting the other end through the switch fixing member 150, it is only necessary to remove the switch fixing member 150 at one end when unlocking, which is very convenient. At the same time, after unlocking, the lock plate 130 does not need to be removed and stored separately, and the alignment process is also omitted when reinstalling, thereby improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency. At the same time, the mounting hole 111 adopts a threaded hole, so that the switch fixing member 150 is threadedly assembled in the mounting hole 111, and the fixing effect is better.

[0046] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the hinged end of the lock plate 130 is connected to the rear of the middle frame 110, and the other end is connected to the front of the middle frame 110, so that the opening or locking action can be achieved from the front-to-back direction, and the position of the crossflow fan blade can be limited. In addition, the lock plate 130 is at least partially located outside the side end surface of the middle frame 110, and the movable parts on the inner side of the end surface of the middle frame 110 are locked and limited. The switch seat body 171 is a fixed structure, and the mounting hole 111 is a threaded through hole. The switch seat body 171 is located in the middle frame 110 and on the inner side of the mounting hole 111. The switch fixing part 150 can be a bolt and can be threadedly matched with the mounting hole 111. In the process of tightening the switch fixing part 150, the switch fixing part 150 will move inward along the mounting hole 111 until it abuts against the micro switch 173. The switch seat body 171 can limit the switch fixing part 150, and after the switch fixing part 150 contacts and abuts against the micro switch 173, the micro switch 173 can be energized and power on the corresponding air-conditioning components.

[0047] In this embodiment, the lock plate 130 includes an integrally arranged first section 131 and a second section 133. The first section 131 is arranged on the side of the middle frame 110, and one end of the first section 131 is hinged on the middle frame 110. The second section 133 is connected to the other end of the first section 131 and is bent relative to the first section 131 and extends to the front side of the middle frame 110. The switch fixing member 150 is arranged at one end of the second section 133 away from the first section 131. Specifically, the first section 131 and the second section 133 form an L-shaped bending structure, that is, the first section 131 and the second section 133 can be perpendicular to each other, and a transition bending structure is used at the bending position, so that the first section 131 can be used to realize the function of locking the movable part, and the second section 133 can be used to realize the position fixing. The bending setting can make the second section 133 bend forward to the front side of the middle frame 110, so that it is convenient to directly disassemble the switch fixing member from the front side during assembly or disassembly, which is very convenient. At the same time, the bent locking plate 130 can also increase the locking range and ensure the locking limit effect.

[0048] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the rear portion of the middle frame 110 refers to the portion close to the wall after installation, and the front portion of the middle frame 110 refers to the portion close to the air outlet. In addition, the inner side of the middle frame 110 refers to the side close to the center of the crossflow fan blade, and the outer side of the middle frame 110 refers to the side close to the user.

[0049] In this embodiment, a hinge sleeve is further provided at one end of the first section 131 away from the second section 133, and a hinge shaft is provided at the rear of the middle frame 110. The hinge sleeve extends into the rear of the middle frame 110 and is movably sleeved on the hinge shaft to drive the first section 131 and the second section 133 to rotate relative to the middle frame 110. Specifically, the size of the opening on the hinge sleeve is adapted to the size of the hinge shaft, so that the hinge sleeve can rotate freely relative to the hinge shaft. By using the coordinated arrangement of the hinge shaft and the hinge sleeve, the hinge of the lock plate 130 can be realized, and the lock plate 130 can rotate relative to the middle frame 110 under the action of an external force, so as to realize the unlocking and locking actions on the one hand, and on the other hand, by separately arranging the hinge sleeve, the structural strength of the hinge position on the lock plate 130 can be improved, so as to avoid directly opening a hole on the first section 131, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the lock plate 130.

[0050] In this embodiment, the hinge sleeve protrudes inward relative to the first section 131, and the first section 131 is located outside the end surface of the middle frame 110. Specifically, the hinge sleeve is integrally provided at one end of the first section 131 and protrudes inward, so that the opening position on the hinge sleeve is separated from the first section 131 by a distance. The hinge sleeve protrudes inward, so that the hinge sleeve can extend into the middle frame 110 while the first section 131 is located outside the middle frame 110, ensuring the parallel locking effect of the first section 131 and avoiding interference between the first section 131 and the middle frame 110.

[0051] In this embodiment, the bottom edges of the first section 131 and the second section 133 are provided with reinforcing folds. Preferably, since the first section 131 mainly plays a locking role and has force transmission with the movable parts, a reinforcing fold can be provided on the bottom edge of the first section 131, and the bottom edge of the second section 133 can be provided with a reinforcing fold or not. By adding reinforcing folds, the structural strength of the lock plate 130 can be improved, and the lock plate 130 and other components can be connected stably. At the same time, the reinforcing fold is located at the bottom edge, so that a gap opening can be left at the top edge, which is convenient for manually pulling out the lock plate 130.

[0052] In this embodiment, the assembly hole 135 is provided at one end of the second section 133 away from the first section 131, and a mounting sleeve 137 is further provided on the inner side of the second section 133. The mounting sleeve 137 is held against the front side of the middle frame 110 and corresponds to the mounting hole 111. The switch fixing member 150 passes through the assembly hole 135 and the mounting sleeve 137 in sequence and is threadedly connected with the mounting hole 111. By providing the mounting sleeve 137, on the one hand, the structural strength of the second section 133 can be improved to ensure its fixed installation effect, and on the other hand, the switch fixing member 150 can achieve a further limited fixing effect and ensure the connection structural strength between the switch fixing member 150 and the second section 133.

[0053] It should be noted that the mounting sleeve 137 is integrally arranged on the second section 133, and in the locked state, the assembly hole 135, the mounting hole 111 and the mounting sleeve 137 are concentrically arranged, which can ensure the concentric installation of the switch fixing member 150. In addition, the arrangement of the mounting sleeve 137 can also allow a gap to exist between the second section 133 and the front side surface of the middle frame 110, and the gap can form a shielding space, which is convenient for shielding the buttons and other components that need to be hidden on the front side surface of the middle frame 110.

[0054] Furthermore, the switch fixing member 150 includes a nut 151 and a stud 153. The stud 153 is inserted into the assembly hole 135 and is threadedly connected to the assembly hole 111 after passing through the mounting sleeve 137. The nut 151 is arranged at one end of the stud 153 located outside the assembly hole 135, and a positioning head 155 is also arranged at one end of the stud 153 away from the nut 151. The diameter of the positioning head 155 is larger than the inner diameter of the assembly hole 135. By providing the positioning head 155, on the one hand, the supporting effect on the micro switch 173 can be ensured, and on the other hand, the diameter of the positioning head 155 is larger than the inner diameter of the assembly hole 135, so that the switch fixing member 150 will not fall out of the assembly hole 135 when it is removed from the mounting hole 111. When unlocking and disassembling, it is not necessary to remove the switch fixing member 150 separately for separate storage, thereby avoiding the loss of the switch fixing member 150 and improving the convenience of maintenance operations.

[0055] In this embodiment, a movable part is further provided on the inner side of the middle frame 110, and a clearance opening is provided on the side of the middle frame 110, which passes through the inner side of the middle frame 110 and corresponds to the movable part. A connecting rod is further provided on the inner side of the first section 131, and the connecting rod is hinged to the movable part. Specifically, by providing the connecting rod, the movable part can be driven to move during the process of unlocking and opening the lock plate 130, so as to adjust the position of the movable part and facilitate the subsequent disassembly and assembly of the internal components of the middle frame 110.

[0056] In summary, the air conditioner 100 provided in this embodiment is provided with a mounting hole 111 on the middle frame 110, and the switch fixing member 150 is provided on the lock plate 130 and is correspondingly assembled in the mounting hole 111, so that the lock plate 130 can be detachably mounted on the outer side of the middle frame 110 to achieve locking of the inner movable parts, and the electrical switch seat 170 is provided on the inner side of the middle frame 110 and extends to the inner side of the mounting hole 111, and the switch fixing member 150 can pass through the mounting hole 111 and contact with the electrical switch seat 170, wherein the electrical switch seat 170 can be in a power-on state when in contact with the switch fixing member 150, and in a power-off state when separated from the switch fixing member 150. Compared with the prior art, the utility model sets the electrical switch seat 170 on the inner side of the middle frame 110, and sets the power on and off by whether the switch is fixed in contact or not, which can ensure that the electrical switch seat 170 will be energized only after the lock plate 130 is locked and the switch fixing part 150 is installed in place, and the electrical switch seat 170 can be used as a starting switch for the internal components of the air conditioner, avoiding the start of the air conditioning components in the unlocked state, ensuring the electrical safety of the lock plate 130 in the unlocking / locking action, avoiding safety accidents caused by powering on in the unlocked state or unlocking in the unlocked state, and improving the safety of the air conditioner 100.

[0057] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
