[0037] Combination Figure 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a water receiving tray assembly for an air conditioner, comprising a water receiving tray 10 , a drain plug 20 and an elastic member 30 .

[0038] The water receiving tray 10 is provided with a drainage hole 11; the drainage plug 20 is provided at the drainage hole 11 and can move relative to the drainage hole 11 to open or close the drainage hole 11; the elastic member 30 is supported between the water receiving tray 10 and the drainage plug 20, and when the drainage plug 20 opens the drainage hole 11, the elastic member 30 undergoes elastic deformation to be able to drive the drainage plug 20 to return to the position of closing the drainage hole 11.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, the drain plug 20 is located at a position to close the drain hole 11. Figure 4 As shown, the drain plug 20 is located at a position to open the drain hole 11.

[0040] The water receiving pan assembly for air conditioners provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is used. Through the coordinated use of the drain plug 20 and the elastic member 30, the drain plug 20 is designed as a push-pull structure, which can reduce the difficulty of installing and removing the drain plug 20. When drainage is required, the drain plug 20 does not need to be removed. By pressing the drain plug 20 to elastically deform the elastic member 30, the drain plug 20 can be driven to move and open the drain hole 11, saving time and effort. After the external pressing force applied to the drain plug 20 is removed, the elastic member 30 can quickly return to its original state, pushing the drain plug 20 to reset, so that the drain plug 20 squeezes and blocks the drain hole 11, thereby automatically closing the drain hole 11.

[0041] When the drain plug 20 is in the position to close the drain hole 11, the elastic action of the elastic member 30 causes the drain plug 20 to constantly apply force to the drain hole 11, thereby improving the sealing effect of the drain plug 20 on the drain hole 11 and effectively preventing water leakage.

[0042] Optionally, the elastic member 30 is a spring, and the spring is supported between the water receiving tray 10 and the drain plug 20 .

[0043] The spring can evenly apply force to the drain plug 20, improve the sealing between the drain plug 20 and the drain hole 11, and prevent water leakage. When the spring is compressed, it applies elastic force to the drain plug 20, and the drain plug 20 and the inner wall of the drain hole 11 are firmly attached together, so that the drain plug 20 plays a sealing role and can prevent water from overflowing from the drain plug 20. At the same time, the spring has good durability and can withstand long-term repeated use without losing elasticity, so that the water tray assembly can maintain reliability even under frequent drainage operations.

[0044] Optionally, the drain plug 20 is sleeved on the outside of the drain hole 11 or on the inside of the drain hole 11 .

[0045] The drain plug 20 can be sleeved on the outside of the drain hole 11 to cooperate with the drain hole 11 to close the drain hole 11. The drain plug 20 can be sleeved on the water inlet end of the drain hole 11, or can be sleeved on the water outlet end of the drain hole 11. By blocking and sealing the drain hole 11, the condensed water in the water receiving tray 10 can be effectively prevented from leaking.

[0046] The drain plug 20 can also be arranged inside the drain hole 11, and close the drain hole 11 by being inserted into the drain hole 11 and cooperating with the drain hole 11. When the drain plug 20 is arranged inside the drain hole 11, the outer wall surface of the drain plug 20 can closely match the inner wall surface of the drain hole 11, effectively blocking the drain hole 11, thereby preventing the condensed water in the water receiving tray 10 from leaking.

[0047] Optionally, combined Figure 3-4 As shown, the drain plug 20 includes a mounting portion 21 and a sealing portion 22, and one end of the elastic member 30 is arranged on the mounting portion 21; the sealing portion 22 is connected to the mounting portion 21, and is used to cooperate with the drain hole 11 to close the drain hole 11; wherein, along the direction of the drain plug 20 opening the drain hole 11, the sealing portion 22 and the connecting portion 23 are arranged in sequence.

[0048] The direction in which the drain plug 20 opens the drain hole 11 is as follows: Figure 4 In the direction indicated by the arrow.

[0049] The drain plug 20 is connected to the elastic member 30 through the mounting portion 21, which can improve the connection stability between the drain plug 20 and the elastic member 30. Along the direction of the drain plug 20 opening the drain hole 11, the sealing portion 22 and the connecting portion 23 are sequentially arranged, so that the drain plug 20 can be opened from the bottom by pushing the sealing portion 22 from the bottom to the top.

[0050] The drain hole 11 can be opened by pressing the sealing part 22 to move in the direction of opening the drain hole 11. At this time, the force pressing the sealing part 22 is transmitted to the elastic member 30 through the mounting part 21, causing the elastic member 30 to elastically deform. After the external force is removed, the elastic member 30 elastically recovers and can push the mounting part 21 to move in the direction of closing the drain hole 11, so that the mounting part 21 drives the sealing part 22 to return to the position of closing the drain hole 11.

[0051] Optionally, combined Figure 3-4 As shown, one end of the elastic member 30 is sleeved on the mounting portion 21 .

[0052] The elastic member 30 is sleeved on the mounting portion 21, which can provide a stable connection between the two, so that the elastic member 30 moves in the direction of opening the drain hole 11 under the action of external force, and will not slide or shift relative to the mounting portion 21 in other directions. At the same time, the elastic member 30 is sleeved on the mounting portion 21, which can make the external force transmitted from the mounting portion 21 to the elastic member 30 or the elastic force transmitted from the elastic member 30 to the mounting portion 21 more direct and effective, thereby improving the force transmission efficiency.

[0053] Optionally, combined Figure 3-4 As shown, the drain plug 20 is arranged in the drain hole 11, the inner wall surface of the drain hole 11 includes a first sealing surface 111, and the outer wall surface of the sealing portion 22 includes a second sealing surface 221. When the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 11, the first sealing surface 111 abuts against the second sealing surface 221; wherein, along the direction in which the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 11, the first sealing surface 111 presents a closing structure, and the second sealing surface 221 matches the first sealing surface 111.

[0054] The first sealing surface 111 abuts against the second sealing surface 221 , and when the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 11 , a tight seal can be formed between the outer wall surface of the sealing portion 22 and the inner wall surface of the drain hole 11 , thereby enhancing the sealing effect between the drain plug 20 and the drain hole 11 .

[0055] The first sealing surface 111 is a closed structure, so that when the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 11, the first sealing surface 111 and the second sealing surface 221 are more closely abutted, which can effectively enhance the sealing between the drain plug 20 and the drain hole 11. At the same time, the first sealing surface 111 is a closed structure and can also play a guiding role, accurately guiding the drain plug 20 to move along the closing direction to the position of closing the drain hole 11, so that the first sealing surface 111 and the second sealing surface 221 are accurately abutted and aligned, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0056] Optionally, the first sealing surface 111 is in a ring shape extending along the circumference of the drainage hole 11 .

[0057] The first sealing surface 111 forms a continuous annular sealing surface extending along the circumference of the drain hole 11, which can increase the contact area between the first sealing surface 111 and the second sealing surface 221, thereby improving the sealing effect. When the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 11, the first sealing surface 111 abuts against the second sealing surface 221, so that the outer wall surface of the sealing portion 22 forms a seal with the inner wall surface of the drain hole 11 along the circumference of the drain hole 11, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the seal between the drain plug 20 and the drain hole 11.

[0058] Optionally, combined Figure 3-4As shown, the drain plug 20 also includes a connecting portion 23, which is connected between the mounting portion 21 and the sealing portion 22, and a cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting portion 23 is smaller than an inner diameter of the drain hole 11, so that a drainage gap 24 is formed between the outer wall surface of the connecting portion 23 and the inner wall surface of the drain hole 11.

[0059] A connecting portion 23 is connected between the mounting portion 21 and the sealing portion 22 . When the drain hole 11 is opened, the force pressing the sealing portion 22 is transmitted to the mounting portion 21 through the connecting portion 23 , so that the mounting portion 21 drives the elastic member 30 to undergo elastic deformation.

[0060] The cross-sectional area of ​​the connection portion 23 is smaller than the inner diameter of the drain hole 11, so that a drainage gap 24 is formed between the connection portion 23 and the drain hole 11. During the drainage process, the existence of the drainage gap 24 allows the condensed water to be discharged more smoothly through the drain hole 11, which can improve the drainage efficiency and reduce the possibility of blockage. At the same time, the cross-sectional area of ​​the connection portion 23 is smaller than the inner diameter of the drain hole 11, which can also make the drain plug 20 more smoothly inserted and removed, reducing the installation difficulties caused by interference fit, thereby improving the installation and removal efficiency of the drain plug 20.

[0061] When drainage is required, the sealing part 22 is pressed from bottom to top. At this time, the drain plug 20 moves up to the position of opening the drain hole 11 under the action of external force, so that a separation gap is formed between the first sealing surface 111 and the second sealing surface 221, and the outside world is in a connected state with the water receiving tray 10. The water in the water receiving tray 10 flows through the drainage gap 24 and the separation gap in turn, and flows out from the drain hole 11. After the drainage is completed, no external force is applied to the sealing part 22. Under the elastic force of the elastic member 30, the mounting part 21 pushes the connecting part 23 and the sealing part 22 to move in the direction of closing the drain hole 11. The drain plug 20 moves until the first sealing surface 111 and the second sealing surface 221 are in contact, so that the drain plug 20 fits the water receiving tray 10, plays a sealing role, and can close the drain hole 11.

[0062] Optionally, combined Figure 1-4 As shown, the water receiving tray 10 includes a tray body 12 and a fixing frame 13. The tray body 12 defines a water holding space 121. The drainage hole 11 is provided in the tray body 12 and is connected to the water holding space 121. The fixing frame 13 is provided in the water holding space 121. The elastic member 30 is supported between the fixing frame 13 and the drainage plug 20.

[0063] The tray body 12 defines a water containing space 121 for collecting and storing condensed water. The drain hole 11 is provided in the tray body 12 and communicates with the water containing space 121 , so that the condensed water can be discharged from the water containing space 121 through the drain hole 11 .

[0064] The setting of the fixing frame 13 is such that the elastic member 30 and the drain plug 20 form a stable support, which can enhance the structural stability of the water receiving tray assembly. The fixing frame 13 is arranged in the water containing space 121, and the elastic member 30 is supported between the fixing frame 13 and the drain plug 20. The fixing frame 13 can also limit the elastic member 30, limiting the elastic member 30 from moving in a direction away from the drain plug 20.

[0065] Optionally, combined Figure 3-4 As shown, along the radial direction of the drain hole 11 , the size of the connecting portion 23 is larger than that of the mounting portion 21 , one end of the elastic member 30 is disposed on the mounting portion 21 and abuts against the connecting portion 23 , and the other end of the elastic member 30 abuts against the fixing frame 13 .

[0066] The elastic member 30 is supported between the fixing frame 13 and the drain plug 20, one end of the elastic member 30 abuts against the connecting portion 23, and the other end of the elastic member 30 abuts against the fixing frame 13, so that the elastic member 30 can elastically move between the fixing frame 13 and the connecting portion 23. When the elastic member 30 is a spring, the first end of the spring is sleeved on the outside of the mounting portion 21, and the first end of the spring abuts against the connecting portion 23, and the second end of the spring abuts against the fixing frame 13.

[0067] Optionally, combined Figure 1-4 As shown, the fixing frame 13 is provided with a communication hole 131 , and the communication hole 131 communicates the water containing space 121 with the drainage hole 11 .

[0068] The fixing frame 13 is disposed in the water storage space 121 . A connecting hole 131 is provided on the fixing frame 13 to connect the melt water space and the drainage hole 11 , so that the condensed water in the water storage space 121 can flow into the drainage hole 11 through the connecting hole 131 , and the water can be drained more directly and quickly.

[0069] Optionally, combined Figure 1-4 As shown, the fixing frame 13 includes a fixing portion 132 and a connecting portion 133. The fixing portion 132 is arranged opposite to the drain plug 20, and the elastic member 30 is supported between the fixing portion 132 and the drain plug 20; the connecting portion 133 is arranged between the fixing portion 132 and the disk body 12, and the connecting hole 131 is arranged in the connecting portion 133.

[0070] The fixing part 132 is arranged opposite to the drain plug 20, and the elastic member 30 is supported between the fixing part 132 and the drain plug 20. The fixing part 132 provides a stable support point for the elastic member 30, which can improve the sealing and stability of the water receiving tray assembly. The connecting hole 131 is arranged on the connecting part 133, so that the connecting part 133 can connect the water holding space 121 and the drain hole 11 through the connecting hole 131, so as to realize the water inlet function of the connecting part 133. The connecting part 133 is arranged between the fixing part 132 and the tray body 12, so that the connecting part 133 is arranged close to the tray body 12. The connecting hole is arranged in the connecting part 133, which can reduce the path length of the water flow, thereby reducing the water flow resistance and improving the drainage efficiency.

[0071] Optionally, combined Figure 1-2 As shown, there are multiple communicating holes 131 , and the multiple communicating holes 131 are sequentially arranged along the circumferential direction of the communicating portion 133 .

[0072] By providing a plurality of connecting holes 131, a larger drainage area is provided, allowing more water to flow through at the same time, which can increase the drainage volume per unit time, thereby improving the drainage capacity. The plurality of connecting holes 131 are arranged along the circumference of the connecting portion 133, and water can be uniformly introduced from the water storage space 121 of the water receiving tray 10 into the drainage hole 11, avoiding local overload of water flow.

[0073] At the same time, a plurality of communication holes 131 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the communication portion 133, and the communication portion 133 between adjacent communication holes 131 forms a blocking structure, which can block the elastic member 30. The blocking structure can limit the range of movement of the elastic member 30 between the drain plug 20 and the fixing frame 13, prevent the elastic member 30 from being displaced along the circumference of the communication portion 133, and improve the reliability of the seal.

[0074] Optionally, combined Figure 1-4 As shown, the fixing frame 13 further includes a flange 134 , which is disposed on the outer side of the connecting portion 133 and is used to connect with the disk body 12 .

[0075] By providing the flange 134 on the fixing frame 13, the structural stability of the fixing frame 13 is enhanced. The flange 134 is provided on the outer side of the connecting portion 133, providing a fixing point between the fixing frame 13 and the dish body 12, so that the fixing frame 13 can be more firmly fixed on the dish body 12, thereby improving the stability and durability of the water receiving tray assembly. At the same time, the flange 134 can form a better sealing contact with the dish body 12, thereby improving the connection effect between the fixing frame 13 and the dish body 12.

[0076] Optionally, combined Figure 1-4As shown, the flange 134 is provided with a fixing hole 135 , and the disk body 12 is provided with a fixing matching hole 122 , and the fixing frame 13 is connected to the disk body 12 by fasteners that cooperate with the fixing hole 135 and the fixing matching hole 122 .

[0077] The fixing hole 135 and the fixing matching hole 122 are used together to provide a precise positioning point, so that the relative position between the flange 134 and the tray body 12 is accurate. At the same time, the fixing frame 13 is firmly connected to the tray body 12 by the fastener passing through the fixing hole 135 and the fixing matching hole 122 in sequence, thereby improving the structural stability of the entire water tray assembly.
