[0038] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below.

[0039] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 10 An air conditioner outdoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0040] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the utility model comprises: a casing 10 , an outdoor heat exchanger 20 , a mesh cover 30 and an air guide ring 40 .

[0041] The casing 10 includes a chassis 11 and a panel 12. The panel 12 is connected to the chassis 11 so that the chassis 11 can provide support for the panel 12. The panel 12 is formed with an air vent 13. By setting the air vent 13 on the panel 12, the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 can better dissipate heat, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, and ensuring the normal operating temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100. The air vent 13 can also promote air circulation.

[0042] The outdoor heat exchanger 20 is arranged on the chassis 11, and the chassis 11 can provide an installation position for the outdoor heat exchanger 20. The outdoor heat exchanger 20 is arranged on the rear side of the panel 12. The outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the air outlet 13 are arranged opposite to each other front and back, so that the outdoor air that has exchanged heat through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 can be discharged from the casing 10 through the air outlet 13.

[0043] Specifically, outdoor wind can flow into the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 through the air vents 13, which can accelerate the heat dissipation process of the gas in the outdoor heat exchanger 20, and discharge a portion of the heat from the air vents 13 of the panel 12, thereby accelerating the cooling speed inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100. Moreover, the provision of the air vents 13 can ensure smooth ventilation inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, avoid internal gas stagnation, reduce the situation where the internal temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 is too high, and thus extend the service life of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0044] In addition, the mesh cover 30 is arranged on the panel 12, and the mesh cover 30 is arranged to cover the air outlet 13, which can prevent larger foreign objects from entering the interior of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 through the air outlet 13.

[0045] The air guide ring 40 is mounted on the panel 12 and is arranged around the air outlet 13. The air guide ring 40 can gather wind, thereby preventing the wind from diffusing at the air outlet 13. The air guide ring 40 can also guide the air flow, reduce the turbulence of the air in the air duct, smooth the change of the speed and direction of the air flow, and reduce the impact of the wind pressure difference on the air duct and other components, thereby reducing the noise generated when the air flows.

[0046] Furthermore, a sound insulation material, such as foam or sound insulation cotton, may be disposed inside the air guide ring 40 to further absorb and reduce the noise generated when the air flows.

[0047] The air guide ring 40 is located between the outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the air outlet 13, wherein the air guide ring 40 plays the role of guiding the air flow, so that the air flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 20 or other components of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 in a certain direction and speed, and can also guide the outdoor air heated by the outdoor heat exchanger 20 to the air outlet 13, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0048] The air guide ring 40 is arranged in a circular shape, which can help increase the air circulation and make the air flow through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 more evenly, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0049] Moreover, the air guide ring 40 is extended toward the mesh cover 30, which can increase the speed of delivering air to the mesh cover 30 and prevent heat accumulation in the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, thereby ensuring the normal operating temperature of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 and extending its service life.

[0050] In addition, the mesh cover 30 is integrally formed with the panel 12. The integrally formed design can improve the overall strength and stability of the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12, and can also make them more durable and less prone to deformation. Moreover, the integrally formed design of the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 can reduce vibration and noise when the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 is running, thereby improving the user experience.

[0051] Furthermore, the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 are integrally formed, which can reduce the number of parts and components, and also reduce the difficulty of maintenance and cleaning, thereby improving the maintainability of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0052] Moreover, the air guide ring 40 is detachably mounted on the panel 12, which not only facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the air guide ring 40, but also reduces the maintenance cost. Further, the air guide ring 40 can be set to extend a greater distance toward the mesh cover 30 according to actual conditions, which has good adaptability.

[0053] The panel 12 is provided with a plurality of first clamping parts 121 in the circumferential direction of the air outlet 13, and the air guide ring 40 is provided with a plurality of second clamping parts 41 in the circumferential direction of the air outlet 13. The plurality of first clamping parts 121 and the plurality of second clamping parts 41 are clamped and matched one by one.

[0054] Specifically, multiple first clamping portions 121 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the air outlet 13, and correspondingly, the second clamping portions 41 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the air guide ring 40. The first clamping portions 121 of the panel 12 are clamped together with the second clamping portions 41 of the air guide ring 40, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40.

[0055] The panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 are snap-fitted together to achieve punch-free installation of the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 , thereby avoiding the use of screws and improving the installation efficiency of the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 .

[0056] Moreover, the panel 12 is snap-fitted with the air guide ring 40, which can also increase the stability and strength of the overall structure of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, and can also resist the impact and vibration of the external environment.

[0057] Furthermore, the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 are snap-fitted together, which can effectively reduce the friction and vibration between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40, and can also further reduce the noise level during the operation of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, thereby improving the comfort of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0058] In addition, the snap-fitting cooperation between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 can facilitate maintenance and cleaning by the user, improve the convenience of maintenance of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, and increase the speed of installation and disassembly between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40.

[0059] Therefore, the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 in the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 are snap-fitted together, so that the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 can be installed without punching, which can avoid the use of screws, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40, and can also effectively reduce the friction and vibration between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40, and can further reduce the noise level of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 during operation, thereby improving the comfort of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0060] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the first clamping portion 121 is a clamping hook, the second clamping portion 41 is a buckle, and the air guide ring 40 is provided with a clamping hole 42. The clamping hook passes through the clamping hole 42 and is clamped with the buckle.

[0061] The air guide ring 40 is provided with a clamping hole 42, which is in a strip shape and is first enlarged and then reduced in the direction toward the second clamping portion 41. When the panel 12 is installed and matched with the air guide ring 40, the first clamping portion 121 of the panel 12 is first penetrated with the clamping hole 42, and the first clamping portion 121 is moved from a larger area of ​​the clamping hole 42 to a smaller area of ​​the clamping hole 42 during installation, so that the clamping hole 42 plays a role of installation guide, thereby facilitating the clamping and matching of the first clamping portion 121 and the second clamping portion 41.

[0062] In addition, the first clamping portion 121 is configured as a hook, and correspondingly, the second clamping portion 41 is configured as a buckle. The clamping cooperation between the hook and the buckle can ensure a firm connection between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40, thereby preventing the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 from loosening during use.

[0063] Furthermore, the hook and the buckle can be assembled together quickly and accurately, which can simplify the assembly process and improve the production efficiency of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0064] According to the specific embodiment of the utility model, Figure 4 As shown, the hook includes: a root 122, a body 123 and a hook 124, the root 122 is connected to the panel 12, the root 122 is penetrated by a hook hole 42, one end of the body 123 is connected to the root 122, the body 123 is bent relative to the root 122, the hook 124 is connected to the other end of the body 123, and the hook 124 is engaged with the buckle.

[0065] Specifically, the hook is mainly composed of a root 122, a body 123 and a hook 124, and the root 122 of the hook is connected to the panel 12 to form a whole, wherein the hook and the panel 12 can be integrally formed, thereby improving the strength and rigidity of the overall connection between the hook and the panel 12.

[0066] The body 123 of the hook is extended toward the buckle, which can reduce the distance between the hook 124 and the buckle, thereby facilitating the engagement between the hook 124 and the buckle.

[0067] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the locking hole 42 is configured as an elongated hole extending along the circumference of the air guide ring 40 , and the length of the locking hole 42 is greater than the width of the root portion 122 .

[0068] Among them, the elongated hole is set to first increase and then decrease. During installation, the root 122 first passes through the larger area of ​​the elongated hole, so that the hook can be easily inserted. Then, the root 122 slides along the extension direction of the elongated hole, that is, slides from the larger area to the smaller area. It can not only play a guiding role, but also gradually limit the root 122 when it reaches the set position, thereby preventing the root 122 from being dislocated and moved in the elongated hole.

[0069] In addition, the length of the card hole 42 is greater than the width of the root 122, so that the card hole 42 can provide a certain sliding space for the root 122, and can also facilitate the adjustment of the position between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40, thereby facilitating the snap-fitting of the hook and the buckle.

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, a limiting step 50 is provided on the side of the buckle away from the locking hole 42 , and the locking hook is engaged with the limiting step 50 .

[0071] Among them, since the air guide ring 40 does not need to be disassembled after being installed on the panel 12, the buckle is provided with a limiting step 50, and the limiting step 50 can be used to stop retreat. The hook is engaged with the limiting step 50, so as to prevent the air guide ring 40 from falling off, and at the same time, the panel 12 can be clamped.

[0072] According to the specific embodiment of the utility model, Figure 4 As shown, a slot 60 is formed between the hook and the panel 12 , and the limiting step 50 is interference fit with the slot 60 .

[0073] The limiting step 50 is L-shaped, and the hook portion 124 of the hook is formed with a slot 60, and the limiting step 50 is interference-fitted with the slot 60. The interference amount of the interference fit between the limiting step 50 and the slot 60 is greater than 1 mm, that is, the interference amount between the limiting step 50 and the slot 60 is not less than 1 mm.

[0074] If the interference fit between the limit step 50 and the slot 60 is less than 1 mm, the fit between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 will become loose, causing the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 to fall off. Therefore, the interference fit between the limit step 50 and the slot 60 is greater than 1 mm.

[0075] Preferably, the interference fit between the limiting step 50 and the slot 60 is not less than 2 mm, so that the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 can be matched more tightly, thereby making the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 match more stably.

[0076] Further preferably, the interference fit between the limiting step 50 and the slot 60 is not less than 3 mm, so that the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 can fit more closely, thereby making the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 fit more stably.

[0077] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a guide slope 43 is formed on one side of the buckle close to the buckle hole 42, and the guide slope 43 is used to guide the buckle hook to engage with the buckle.

[0078] The inclined guide surface 43 of the buckle is tilted to play a guiding role and avoid interference between the hook portion 124 of the buckle and the inclined guide surface 43, thereby achieving quick and convenient installation of the hook and the buckle.

[0079] According to a specific embodiment of the present utility model, there are at least five first clamping parts 121, which are evenly spaced around the circumference of the air outlet 13, and there are at least five second clamping parts 41, which are evenly spaced around the circumference of the air outlet 13.

[0080] Specifically, five first clamping portions 121 may be provided at the air outlet 13 of the panel 12 . The five first clamping portions 121 are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the air outlet 13 . Correspondingly, the air guide ring 40 is also provided with five second clamping portions 41 .

[0081] The five second clamping parts 41 are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the air outlet 13. The five first clamping parts 121 are clamped together with the five second clamping parts 41, which can further make the connection between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 more stable and firm, and can also make the force between the panel 12 and the air guide ring 40 more uniform.

[0082] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 are constructed as an integral polypropylene material plate.

[0083] Among them, the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 can both be set as PP material plates. Since the polypropylene material plate has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and aging resistance, the integrated design can increase its durability and service life.

[0084] In addition, the integrated design of the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 can reduce the gap between the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12, thereby preventing air leakage in the air duct system inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, thereby improving the cooling or heating efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0085] The mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 are constructed as one body to increase the overall strength and stability, thereby preventing loosening or falling off and improving its reliability.

[0086] Furthermore, the air guide ring 40 can be set as a polypropylene material board, for example, a PP material board. In this way, the polypropylene material board has the characteristics of light weight and high strength. It is not only convenient to carry and install, but also can withstand a certain wind pressure and vibration during use, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the air guide ring 40.

[0087] Moreover, the polypropylene material plate itself has good insulation performance, which can effectively isolate the heat conduction and electrical conduction between the air guide ring 40 and the external environment, thereby helping to maintain the efficient operation of the air conditioning system.

[0088] In addition, the polypropylene material plate has good corrosion resistance to chemical substances such as acid and alkali, and can resist the erosion of the air guide ring 40 by oxidation, dust, chemical substances, etc. in the air, thereby ensuring that its appearance and performance are not affected.

[0089] Moreover, the air guide ring 40 can also be set as a metal plate, for example, a hot-dip galvanized plate, which can not only prevent it from deformation but also have higher strength and rigidity, thereby extending its service life.

[0090] According to the second embodiment of the present utility model, the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner includes: a casing 10, an outdoor heat exchanger 20, a mesh cover 30 and an air guide ring 40.

[0091] The casing 10 includes a chassis 11 and a panel 12, the panel 12 is connected to the chassis 11, and an air outlet 13 is formed on the panel 12. An outdoor heat exchanger 20 is arranged on the chassis 11, and the outdoor heat exchanger 20 is arranged on the rear side of the panel 12. The outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the air outlet 13 are arranged opposite to each other front and back, so that the outdoor air that has exchanged heat through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 can be discharged from the casing 10 through the air outlet 13.

[0092] The mesh cover 30 is arranged on the panel 12, and the mesh cover 30 covers the air outlet 13. The air guide ring 40 is installed on the panel 12, and the air guide ring 40 is arranged around the air outlet 13. The air guide ring 40 is located between the outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the air outlet 13, so that the outdoor wind that has passed through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 for heat exchange can be guided to the air outlet 13. The mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 are integrally formed, and the air guide ring 40 is snap-fitted with the panel 12.

[0093] Specifically, the mesh cover 30 is integrally formed with the panel 12. The integrally formed design can improve the overall strength and stability of the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12, and can also make them more durable and less prone to deformation. Moreover, the integrally formed design of the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 can reduce vibration and noise when the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 is running, thereby improving the user experience.

[0094] Furthermore, the mesh cover 30 and the panel 12 are integrally formed, which can reduce the number of parts and components, and also reduce the difficulty of maintenance and cleaning, thereby improving the maintainability of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0095] Moreover, the air guide ring 40 is detachably mounted on the panel 12, which not only facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the air guide ring 40, but also reduces the maintenance cost. Further, the air guide ring 40 can be set to extend a greater distance toward the mesh cover 30 according to actual conditions, which has good adaptability.
