[0039] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.
[0040] Embedded air conditioners are usually equipped with a water tray to receive condensed water from the evaporator, and a drain hole is provided on the water tray to drain the condensed water out of the water tray through the drain hole. When the drain hole is not in use, a drain plug is used to block the drain hole to prevent condensed water from leaking out during daily use. At present, the drain plug and the inner wall of the drain hole usually only rely on a simple interference fit on the contact surface, and the protection method is single.
[0041] The related art provides a water tray assembly, which includes a water tray and a hole plug. The water tray is provided with a drainage hole. The hole plug includes a hole plug body and a spiral convex rib. After the hole plug body is matched with the drainage hole, the spiral convex rib seals the gap between the inner wall of the drainage hole and the hole plug body. The hole plug is sealed only by the spiral convex rib and the drainage hole. The hole plug will age and fail if it is immersed in water for a long time, which may easily lead to the hole plug loosening, making the sealing of the drainage plug worse, causing water leakage.
[0042] Combination Figure 1-3 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a water receiving pan assembly for an air conditioner, comprising a water receiving pan 10 and a drain plug 20 .
[0043] The water receiving tray 10 includes an inner tray body 11 and an outer tray body 12 arranged outside the inner tray body 11, the inner tray body 11 defines a water holding space 13 and is provided with a drainage hole 14, and an accommodating space 15 is defined between an outer wall surface 142 of a side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14 and the outer tray body 12; the drainage plug 20 includes a sealing body 21 and a first sealing edge 22, the sealing body 21 cooperates with the drainage hole 14 to close the drainage hole 14, the first sealing edge 22 is connected to the sealing body 21 and is arranged in the accommodating space 15, and the first sealing edge 22 is in contact with the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14 and / or in contact with the outer tray body 12.
[0044] The water receiving pan assembly for air conditioners provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure can improve the sealing stability and reliability between the drain plug 20 and the water receiving pan 10, extend the service life of the drain plug 20, and prevent the drain plug 20 from leaking due to aging or loosening. By providing an inner layer pan body 11 and an outer layer pan body 12, and defining a receiving space 15 between the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 and the outer layer pan body 12, the first sealing edge 22 of the drain plug 20 can be limited in the receiving space 15, and the drain plug 20 can be fixed more effectively. The first sealing edge 22 is avoided from being attached to the outer side of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 and / or is attached to the outer layer pan body 12, which can increase the contact area between the drain plug 20 and the water receiving pan 10, so that the drain plug 20 is more tightly combined with the water receiving pan 10.
[0045] Optionally, the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drainage hole 14 or sleeved outside the drainage hole 14 .
[0046] Combination Figure 2-3 As shown, the sealing body 21 can be inserted into the drainage hole 14 to cooperate with the drainage hole 14 to close the drainage hole 14. The sealing body 21 is inserted into the drainage hole 14 and can be tightly matched with the inner wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14, effectively blocking the drainage hole 14 to prevent water leakage.
[0047] The sealing body 21 can also be sleeved outside the drain hole 14 to cooperate with the drain hole 14 to close the drain hole 14. The sealing body 21 can be sleeved on the water inlet end of the drain hole 14, or can be sleeved on the water outlet end of the drain hole 14 to achieve shielding and sealing of the drain hole 14, effectively preventing water leakage.
[0048] The first sealing edge 22 is fitted with the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14, so that the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 limits the first sealing edge 22. The first sealing edge 22 is fitted with the outer layer disk body 12, so that the outer layer disk body 12 limits the first sealing edge 22. When the first sealing edge 22 is fitted with the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 and the outer layer disk body 12 at the same time, the fixing effect of the accommodating space 15 on the first sealing edge 22 can be increased, and the stability of the drain plug 20 can be improved.
[0049] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the accommodating space 15 is in the shape of a ring extending along the circumference of the drainage hole 14 , and the first sealing edge 22 is in the shape of a ring extending along the circumference of the accommodating space 15 .
[0050] The annular accommodating space 15 can limit the first sealing edge 22 in the accommodating space 15 along the circumference of the drainage hole 14, thereby enhancing the fixing effect of the accommodating space 15 on the drainage plug 20, while also being able to evenly disperse the sealing pressure, avoid local stress concentration, and reduce the wear of the first sealing edge 22.
[0051] The first sealing edge 22 is in the shape of a ring extending along the circumference of the accommodating space 15. In combination with the annular accommodating space 15, the first sealing edge 22 can have a sufficient contact area with the outer wall surface 142 of the side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14 and / or the outer layer plate body 12, and form a uniform contact, thereby improving the structural stability of the entire water receiving tray assembly, thereby enhancing the sealing of the drainage plug 20 to the drainage hole 14 and reducing the risk of water leakage.
[0052] Optionally, the accommodating space 15 is annular and extends along the circumference of the drainage hole 14 . There are multiple first sealing edges 22 , and the multiple first sealing edges 22 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the accommodating space 15 .
[0053] There are multiple first sealing edges 22. When multiple first sealing edges 22 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the accommodation space 15, multiple first sealing edges 22 can form multiple fixing points along the circumference of the accommodation space 15, so that the drain plug 20 is more stably fixed to the water receiving tray 10, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the entire water receiving tray assembly. By adjusting the number of first sealing edges 22, drain holes 14 of different sizes and shapes can be accommodated.
[0054] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, and the drain plug 20 also includes a second sealing edge 23, which is connected between the sealing body 21 and the first sealing edge 22. The sealing body 21, the first sealing edge 22 and the second sealing edge 23 jointly define a limiting space 27, and the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 is inserted into the limiting space 27 and fits with the sealing body 21.
[0055] The second sealing edge 23 increases the contact surface between the drain plug 20 and the water receiving tray 10, which can enhance the sealing effect of the drain plug 20. The side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 is inserted into the limiting space 27 and fits with the sealing body 21. Through the joint action of the sealing body 21, the first sealing edge 22 and the second sealing edge 23, the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 can be limited in the limiting space 27, thereby improving the stability of the sealing body 21 and preventing the sealing body 21 from shifting or falling off.
[0056] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the second sealing edge 23 is in contact with the side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14 .
[0057] The second sealing edge 23 is fitted with the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14, which more effectively enhances the sealing between the drain plug 20 and the water receiving tray 10, and prevents water from leaking from the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14. Specifically, the second sealing edge 23 is fitted with the wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 that is away from the water containing space 13.
[0058] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drainage hole 14 , and the drainage plug 20 further includes a third sealing edge 24 , which is disposed on the inner side of the inner disk body 11 and fits with the inner wall surface of the inner disk body 11 .
[0059] The inner side of the inner disk body 11 is the side of the inner disk body 11 facing the water-containing space 13. The third sealing edge 24 is in contact with the inner wall surface of the inner disk body 11, so that a tight sealing interface is formed between the third sealing edge 24 and the inner wall surface of the inner disk body 11, which can enhance the sealing performance of the drain plug 20. The third sealing edge 24 and the sealing body 21 work together to seal the drain hole 14 at multiple levels, making the sealing performance of the drain plug 20 more comprehensive.
[0060] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the third sealing edge 24 is annular and extends along the circumference of the sealing body 21 .
[0061] The annular third sealing edge 24 extends along the circumference of the sealing body 21 and can continuously fit with the inner wall surface of the inner disk body 11 along the circumference of the sealing body 21, thereby forming a continuous and tight seal around the drainage hole 14, effectively preventing water from leaking through the drainage hole 14.
[0062] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, when the drain plug 20 includes a sealing body 21, a first sealing edge 22, a second sealing edge 23 and a third sealing edge 24, the sealing body 21, the first sealing edge 22, the second sealing edge 23 and the third sealing edge 24 jointly define a limiting space 27, and the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 is inserted into the limiting space 27, and the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 is in contact with the sealing body 21, the first sealing edge 22, the second sealing edge 23 and the third sealing edge 24.
[0063] The sealing body 21, the first sealing edge 22, the second sealing edge 23 and the third sealing edge 24 form four contact surfaces, each of which is tightly fitted with the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 to form a matching surface. When water overflows from the drain plug 20 into the water storage space 13, it must pass through the resistance of the four matching surfaces. The pressure of the matching surfaces is much greater than the pressure of water, and the water will not overflow. And only after the four contact surfaces of the drain plug 20 are aged and failed, the water in the water storage space 13 may leak out, which can increase the reliability of the drain plug 20.
[0064] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, and the drain plug 20 also includes a sealing member 25, which is arranged between the sealing body 21 and the inner wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14, and the surface of the sealing member 25 includes a first sealing surface 251 and a second sealing surface 252. Along the direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, the first sealing surface 251 and the second sealing surface 252 are arranged in sequence, wherein the first sealing surface 251 forms an acute angle α with the sealing body 21.
[0065] The direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14 is as follows: Figure 3 shown.
[0066] The seal 25 is disposed between the sealing body 21 and the inner wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14, so that the drain plug 20 and the drain hole 14 form an interference fit, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the drain plug 20. The seal 25 cooperates with the sealing body 21 to achieve a double anti-failure effect on the drain plug 20.
[0067] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 4-5 As shown, the first sealing surface 251 of the sealing member 25 is the surface of the sealing member 25 facing the drain hole 14 along the direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14. The angle between the first sealing surface 251 and the sealing body 21 is as shown in FIG. Figure 4-5 The first sealing surface 251 forms an acute angle with the sealing body 21 , forming a guide surface for the sealing body 21 to be inserted into the drain hole 14 , so that the drain plug 20 can be installed into the drain hole 14 more easily.
[0068] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the sealing member 25 is annular and extends along the circumference of the sealing body 21 .
[0069] The annular sealing member 25 forms a sealing ring, which can form a continuous interference fit with the drain hole 14 along the entire circumference of the sealing body 21, so that a continuous seal is formed between the sealing member 25 and the drain hole 14, thereby improving the sealing effect.
[0070] Optionally, the sealing member 25 is made of rubber.
[0071] The rubber material has good elasticity, and the rubber seal 25 can fit tightly against the inner wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drainage hole 14 to form an effective seal.
[0072] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 4-5 As shown, the second sealing surface 252 is perpendicular to the sealing body 21 or forms an obtuse angle with the sealing body 21 .
[0073] The second sealing surface 252 of the sealing member 25 is the surface of the sealing member 25 that is away from the drain hole 14 along the direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14. A triangle is formed between the first sealing surface 251, the second sealing surface 252 and the sealing body 21. The angle between the second sealing surface 252 and the sealing body 21 is as follows: Figure 4-5 As shown in β. The second sealing surface 252 is perpendicular to the sealing body 21 or forms an obtuse angle with the sealing body 21. When the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, the sealing member 25 is compressed under the squeezing action of the drain hole 14. The angle between the second sealing surface 252 and the sealing body 21 becomes larger, from a right angle to an obtuse angle, or from an obtuse angle with a smaller angle to an obtuse angle with a larger angle, so that the sealing member 25 forms a barb shape. The barb-shaped sealing member 25 can increase the self-locking property of the drain plug 20. When the drain plug 20 is to be removed, the barb-shaped sealing member 25 resists against the inner surface of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 to form resistance, which can increase the sealing stability of the drain plug 20.
[0074] Optionally, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, the sealing body 21 is provided with a cavity 26 .
[0075] The cavity 26 can form a buffer space in the sealing body 21. When the drain plug 20 is installed into the drain hole 14, the sealing body 21 or the sealing member 25 is compressed and contracted, and the excess stress can be released in the cavity 26, reducing the direct impact on the sealing body 21 and preventing the sealing body 21 from being damaged when subjected to external force. When removing the drain plug 20, it is also possible to insert a tool into the cavity 26 to more easily grasp or pry the drain plug 20, thereby improving the convenience of removing the drain plug 20.
[0076] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing body 21 includes a first body section 211 and a second body section 212. The first body section 211 is arranged inside the drainage hole 14; the second body section 212 is connected to the first body section 211, and along the direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drainage hole 14, the first body section 211 and the second body section 212 are arranged in sequence; wherein, along the direction in which the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drainage hole 14, the surface of the second body section 212 that is away from the first body section 211 is inclined toward the axis of the sealing body 21.
[0077] Along the direction of the sealing body 21 being inserted into the drain hole 14, the first body section 211 and the second body section 212 are arranged in sequence, and the surface of the second body section 212 that is away from the first body section 211 is inclined toward the axis of the sealing body 21, so that the surface of the second body section 212 that is away from the first body section 211 forms a guide surface. When the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, the guide surface can provide a path guide for the sealing body 21, guide the sealing body 21 to be smoothly inserted into the drain hole 14, reduce the resistance during insertion, and thus improve the installation efficiency and accuracy. After the sealing body 21 is inserted into the drain hole 14, the first body section 211 cooperates with the inner wall surface of the side wall 141 of the drain hole 14 to achieve sealing of the drain hole 14, so that the drain plug 20 closes the drain hole 14, and at this time, the second body section 212 is located in the water holding space 13.
