[0061] The specific implementation methods of the present application are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present application but are not intended to limit the scope of the present application.
[0062] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element. The terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technical operators in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0063] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "height", "up", "down", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc. used in the present application to indicate the orientation or position relationship are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0064] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first" and "second" are used in this application for descriptive purposes only, and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0065] In the present application, the air conditioner 100 performs a refrigeration cycle or a heating cycle of the air conditioner 100 through a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle and the heating cycle include a series of processes such as compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and provide cooling or heat to the indoor space through the heat absorption or heat release of the refrigerant to adjust the temperature of the indoor space.
[0066] The compressor compresses the refrigerant gas in a high temperature and high pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and the heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
[0067] The expansion valve expands the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor. The evaporator can achieve a refrigeration effect by utilizing the latent heat of evaporation of the refrigerant to exchange heat with the material to be cooled. In the entire cycle, the air conditioner 100 can adjust the temperature of the indoor space.
[0068] The air conditioner 100 of the present application includes an air conditioner indoor unit 110 and an air conditioner outdoor unit 120. The air conditioner outdoor unit 120 includes a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger, and the air conditioner indoor unit 110 includes an indoor heat exchanger. The expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
[0069] The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger function as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, the air conditioner 100 functions as a heater in a heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator, the air conditioner 100 functions as a cooler in a cooling mode.
[0070] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 14 The air conditioner indoor unit 110 and the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present application are described. The air conditioner indoor unit 110 according to the embodiment of the present application includes a housing 1, an air inlet 2 is arranged at the top of the housing 1, an air outlet (not shown in the figure) is arranged at the bottom of the housing 1, and a filter (not shown in the figure) is arranged at the air inlet 2 to filter the air introduced into the housing 1; and an air guide plate 3 is arranged at the air outlet to guide the air flow direction blowing into the room.
[0071] The air conditioner indoor unit 110 of this embodiment is provided with a panel 4 on the side of the housing 1 facing the indoor room. The panel 4 is provided on the front side of the housing 1, and one end of the panel 4 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, so that the panel 4 can be opened and closed on the front side of the housing 1. The rotation between the panel 4 and the housing 1 can be achieved by setting a rotating shaft, which will not be described here. Moreover, in order to facilitate the user to observe the operation information of the air conditioner indoor unit 110, a display box 5 is generally installed on the side of the panel 4 close to the housing 1, and a window (not shown in the figure) is provided for displaying the display panel (not shown in the figure) on the display box 5.
[0072] The display box 5 is generally a cubic structure to fit the contour structure of the display screen. In the display box 5, two opposite ends of any edge thereof can be divided into a first side 50 and a second side 51, so that the first side 50 and the second side 51 are arranged opposite to each other on two sides of the display box 5. Taking the rectangular parallelepiped box body 52 as an example, the first side 50 and the second side 51 are the end sides at the two ends of the long side of the rectangular parallelepiped or the end sides at the two ends of the short side of the rectangular parallelepiped.
[0073] refer to Figure 3-7The display box 5 is fixed to the inner side of the panel 4, that is, the side of the panel 4 close to the housing 1, through the mounting unit 6. The mounting unit 6 can be directly formed or mounted on the inner side of the panel 4, or can be directly formed or mounted on a base or substrate, and then the base or substrate is mounted on the inner side of the panel 4, so that the mounting unit 6 is connected to the inner side of the panel 4.
[0074] Taking the integral molding of the mounting unit 6 and the panel 4 as an example, specifically, the mounting unit 6 may include a fixing portion 60 and a mounting portion 61, wherein the fixing portion 60 is formed with a fixing space 600 for accommodating the first side 50 of the display box 5, and the first side 50 of the display box 5 can be embedded in the fixing space 600 and wrapped by the fixing portion 60; the mounting portion 61 is formed with an installation space 610 for accommodating the second side 51 of the display box 5, and the mounting portion 61 can fix the second side 51 of the display box 5, so that the opposite sides of the display box 5 can be fixed on the panel 4, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the display box 5 and the panel 4.
[0075] Furthermore, the second side 51 of the display box 5 can cooperate with the mounting portion 61, so that the mounting portion 61 or the second side 51 of the display box 5 is elastically deformed, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 can enter the mounting space 610 from the top of the mounting portion 61 and be fixed in the mounting space 610 by the mounting portion 61.
[0076] It can be understood that the fixing portion 60 of the mounting unit 6 cooperates with the first side 50 of the display box 5, and the mounting portion 61 cooperates with the second side 51 of the display box 5, so the fixing portion 60 and the mounting portion 61 of the mounting unit 6 are also arranged on the opposite sides of the display box 5, respectively, and the fixing space 600 has an opening toward the mounting portion 61. When assembling the display box 5, the first side 50 of the display box 5 can be first pushed into the fixing space 600 formed by the fixing portion 60 through the opening, so that the first side 50 of the display box 5 is wrapped by the fixing portion 60 to achieve preliminary positioning. Subsequently, as the first side 50 of the display box 5 enters the fixing space 600, the path for the display box 5 to continue to move toward the fixing portion 60 is restricted, and the second side 51 of the display box 5 will move to the top of the mounting portion 61. In this way, the second side 51 of the display box 5 can be pressed into the mounting space 610 from the top of the mounting portion 61.
[0077] It should be noted that the opening of the fixed space 600 faces the mounting portion 61, and can be arranged directly opposite or obliquely. It is mainly used to enable the display box 5 to enter the fixed space 600 from the direction where the mounting portion 61 is located. In this way, after the first side 50 of the display box 5 enters the fixed space 600 from the opening, the second side 51 of the display box 5 can move to the top of the mounting portion 61, close to the mounting portion 61, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 can be pressed into the mounting space 610 from the top of the mounting portion 61 in the future.
[0078] In order to ensure that the display box 5 can be fixed to the inner side of the panel 4 by the mounting unit 6, after the display box 5 is assembled in place, the fixing portion 60 and the mounting portion 61 are generally close to the outer surface of the display box 5. Therefore, when the first side 50 of the display box 5 enters the fixing space 600, since the second side 51 of the display box 5 has not yet entered the mounting space 610, the display box 5 will be inclined to the mounting unit 6. At this time, the first side 50 of the display box 5 has not yet been assembled in place in the fixing space 600, that is, the first side 50 of the display box 5 has not yet been attached to the fixing portion 60, and part of the structure of the second side 51 of the display box 5 is located outside the mounting portion 61. Therefore, the second side 51 of the display box 5 needs to be elastically matched with the mounting portion 61. Through the elastic deformation of at least one of the mounting portion 61 or the second side 51 of the display box 5, a passage space is provided for the second side 51 of the display box 5 to enter the mounting space 610, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 enters the mounting space 610 and is fixed by the mounting portion 61.
[0079] It can be understood that the elastic fit formed between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61 is to provide a passage space for the second side 51 of the display box 5 to enter the mounting space 610. Therefore, when the mounting portion 61 adopts an elastic deformation design, the elastic change generated by the mounting portion 61 should be to deform toward the outside of the mounting space 610 after being squeezed, so as to form a passage space away from the second side 51 of the display box 5; and when the second side 51 of the display box 5 adopts an elastic deformation design, the elastic change generated by the second side 51 of the display box 5 should be to deform toward the inside of the display box 5 after being squeezed, so as to form a passage space away from the mounting portion 61.
[0080] When removing the display box 5, the operator can first force the second side 51 or the mounting portion 61 that can generate elastic deformation to generate elastic deformation according to the elastic fit formed between the second side 51 and the mounting portion 61, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 is separated from the mounting portion 61, and in this way, the operator can take the second side 51 of the display box 5 out of the mounting space 610. In the process of separating the second side 51 of the display box 5 from the mounting portion 61, based on the elastic fit between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61, the mounting portion 61 can remain pressed against the outer surface of the second side 51, so that the display box 5 will not fall from the mounting unit 6. After the second side 51 of the display box 5 is separated from the mounting portion 61, since the first side 50 of the display box 5 is still embedded in the fixing space 600 and wrapped by the fixing portion 60, the display box 5 will still not fall from the mounting unit 6.
[0081] In order to better fix the display box 5 in the installation space 610, as an example of this embodiment, the installation unit 6 may also include a limiting portion 62, which is arranged on both sides of the installation portion 61, and the limiting portion 62 can wrap the second side 51 to limit the second side 51 from leaving the installation space 610.
[0082] The shape contour of the limiting portion 62 can be configured according to the shape contour of the second side 51 of the display box 5, so that the second side 51 fixed in the installation space 610 can be wrapped by the limiting portion 62 on its outer peripheral side, so that the circumferential displacement of the second side 51 of the display box 5 is limited. Combined with the connection structure in which the installation portion 61 is fixed to its top, the second side 51 of the display box 5 can be well fixed in the installation space 610.
[0083] It is understandable that there are various ways to form elastic fit between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61, such as the elastic change between the second side 51 and the mounting portion 61 can be achieved by using buckles, spring blocks, marbles, etc. Of course, in order to facilitate the operation of the operator, the one with elastic deformation design between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61 can be provided with a pull piece outside the mounting space 610, so that the operator can drive it to elastically deform.
[0084] Take the installation portion 61 as an example, which adopts an elastic buckle structure. Figure 3-4 As an example of this embodiment, the mounting portion 61 may include a connecting block 611 and a buckle block 612, wherein:
[0085] The connection block 611 is vertically arranged on the panel 4, and the bottom of the connection block 611 is connected to the panel 4; the buckle block 612 is connected to the top of the connection block 611, and the buckle block 612 extends to the top of the installation space 610 in the direction of the fixing portion 60, and the buckle block 612 can be squeezed by the display box 5 to make the connection block 611 elastically deformed toward the outside of the installation space 610. In addition, the buckle block 612 can be provided with a guide surface 6110 for guiding the second side 51 to enter the installation space 610, and the second side 51 can be squeezed on the guide surface 6110 to make the connection block 611 elastically deformed.
[0086] It can be understood that the connection and cooperation between the first side 50 of the display box 5 and the fixing portion 60 can make the display box 5 stay in the mounting unit 6 when disassembled and will not fall off by itself. To this end, the fixing portion 60 needs to wrap the first side 50 of the display box 5 so that the first side 50 is confined in the fixing space 600. Take the display box 5 as a cubic structure as an example, refer to Figure 3-4 As an example of this embodiment, the fixing portion 60 may include a first fixing block 601, a second fixing block 602 and a third fixing block 603, wherein:
[0087] The first fixing block 601 is vertically arranged on the panel 4; the second fixing block 602 is vertically arranged on the panel 4 and intersects with the first fixing block 601 to wrap the outer peripheral side of the first side 50 to fix the first side 50; the third fixing block 603 is connected to the top of the first fixing block 601 and the second fixing block 602 to wrap the top of the first side 50; and the first fixing block 601, the second fixing block 602 and the third fixing block 603 are interconnected to form a fixed space 600.
[0088] By the first fixing block 601, the second fixing block 602 and the third fixing block 603 intersecting each other, the fixing space 600 can form a space that wraps the outer peripheral side and the top of the first side 50. When the display box 5 is assembled to the panel 4, the bottom of the display box 5 is attached to the panel 4 so that its display screen can be displayed through the window of the panel 4. Combined with the layout of the first fixing block 601, the second fixing block 602 and the third fixing block 603, the first side 50 of the display box 5 can be wrapped and restricted to only be able to enter and exit through the opening of the fixing space 600. Since the opening of the fixing space 600 is arranged toward the mounting portion 61, in this way, even if the second side 51 of the display box 5 is separated from the mounting portion 61, the fixing portion 60 can still support the first side 50 of the display box 5, so that the display box 5 stays in the mounting unit 6 to prevent the display box 5 from falling.
[0089] According to the shape of the display box 5, the number of the fixing portion 60 can be one or more. Figure 3-4 It is understood that when the display box 5 is installed on the panel 4 of the air conditioner indoor unit 110, it will generally be as shown. Figure 7 As shown in the vertical arrangement. In this way, taking the display box 5 as a cubic structure as an example, the installation unit 6 can be arranged in only one Figure 7 The fixing portion 60 shown below wraps the lower left corner of the display box 5, and combined with the fixing function of the mounting portion, the display box 5 can be fixed in the mounting unit 6. Of course, Figure 3-4 The design of the two fixing parts 60 shown in the figure can also make the second fixing blocks 602 of the two fixing parts 60 along Figure 7 As shown, they extend in opposite directions in the upper and lower directions and are connected as a whole, thereby completely surrounding the first side 50 of the display box 5, which will not be shown in the figure for explanation here.
[0090] The display box 5 may be configured with a connection structure corresponding to the fixing portion 60 and the mounting portion 61, so that the display box 5 can be better connected to the mounting unit 6. Figure 5-6 As an example of this embodiment, the display box 5 may include a box body 52, an access portion 53, a plug-in portion 54 and a clamping portion 55, wherein:
[0091] The box body 52 is formed with a first side 50 and a second side 51; the access portion 53 is connected to the first side 50 of the box body 52, and the access portion 53 is configured to be embedded in the fixed space 600 and wrapped by the fixed portion 60; the plug-in portion 54 is arranged at the top of the access portion 53, and a spacing is formed between the access portion 53 for the fixed portion 60 to be embedded, and the plug-in portion 54 can be squeezed by the fixed portion 60 and elastically deformed toward the outer side of the top of the box body 52; the clamping portion 55 is connected to the second side 51 of the box body 52, and protrudes toward the outer side of the box body 52, and the clamping portion 55 is configured to be embedded in the installation space 610, so that the installation portion 61 is pressed on the top of the clamping portion 55.
[0092] Specifically, a plug-in buckle body 540 is provided on the plug-in portion 54, and the buckle body is arranged toward the access portion 53. In addition, a fixed buckle body 604 that cooperates with the plug-in buckle body 540 is provided on the fixed portion 60. The fixed buckle body 604 can be engaged with the plug-in buckle body 540 to limit the plug-in portion 54 from moving toward the opening relative to the fixed portion 60.
[0093] The snap-fitting portion 55 is provided with a snap-fitting assembly position 550 that matches the snap-fitting block 612 . The snap-fitting portion 55 is embedded in the installation space 610 so that the snap-fitting block 612 can be snapped into the snap-fitting assembly position 550 , thereby fixing the snap-fitting portion 55 in the installation space 610 .
[0094] By providing the access portion 53 and the plug-in portion 54 on the first side 50 of the box body 52, the first side 50 of the display box 5 can also form an elastic fit with the mounting unit 6. In this way, when the display box 5 is inserted into the fixed space 600, the display box 5 can adjust the insertion angle by squeezing the plug-in portion 54, and the operator can more easily insert the first side 50 of the display box 5 into the fixed space 600. By providing the clamping portion 55 on the second side 51 of the box body 52, the box body 52 itself does not need to be provided with a connection structure, and its internal space can be more reasonably configured to install the display screen and accessories.
[0095] Based on the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110, this embodiment describes its installation and removal process as follows:
[0096] When assembling the display box 5, refer to Figure 8-11 First, the display box 5 is tilted at a certain angle so that the first side 50 of the display box 5 faces the opening of the fixed space 600, and the first side 50 of the display box 5 is inserted into the fixed space 600 through the opening of the fixed space 600.
[0097] When the first side 50 of the display box 5 is inserted into the fixing space 600, the fixing portion 60 enters the gap between the plug-in portion 54 and the access portion 53, and squeezes the plug-in portion 54, so that the plug-in portion 54 is elastically deformed toward the top of the box body 52, so that the first side 50 can be further inserted into the fixing space 600 until the fixing buckle body 604 of the fixing portion 60 is engaged with the plug-in buckle body 540 of the plug-in portion 54. At this time, the first side 50 of the display box 5 is initially in place, and the second side 51 of the display box 5 is close to the top of the mounting portion 61.
[0098] Subsequently, the display box 5 is pressed toward the mounting portion 61, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 squeezes the buckle block 612 of the mounting portion 61, thereby making the connection block 611 elastically deformed, and the connection block 611 deforms toward the outside of the mounting space 610, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 can enter the mounting space 610 from the top of the mounting portion 61. At the same time, since the display box 5 gradually changes from a state inclined to the panel 4 to a state flush with the panel 4, the first side 50 of the display box 5 can further extend into the fixed space 600, so that the first side 50 and the second side 51 of the display box 5 are respectively installed in the fixed space 600 and the mounting space 610, completing the assembly of the display box 5. At this time, the connection block 611 elastically recovers because it is no longer squeezed by the second side 51, and the buckle block 612 is buckled in the buckle assembly position 550, so that the clamping portion 55 is fixed in the mounting space 610.
[0099] When disassembling the display box 5, refer to Figure 12-14 , the buckle block 612 is pulled to make the mounting portion 61 elastically deform toward the outside of the mounting space 610, so that the mounting portion 61 will be separated from the second side 51 of the display box 5, and the buckle block 612 is no longer engaged in the buckle assembly position 550, and the second side 51 of the display box 5 can be taken out from the mounting space 610. At this time, the display box 5 will be inclined to the panel 4, and the fixed portion 60 squeezes the plug-in portion 54, so that the plug-in portion 54 elastically deforms toward the top of the box body 52, but the fixed buckle body 604 and the plug-in buckle body 540 of the plug-in portion 54 are still engaged, limiting the plug-in portion 54 from moving toward the opening relative to the fixed portion 60, and the first side 50 of the display box 5 is still in the fixed space 600, so the display box 5 will not fall off from the mounting unit 6 by itself. By pulling the display box 5 out to the outside of the opening, the display box 5 will be separated from the fixed space 600 and the disassembly operation is completed.
[0100] Based on the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110, some embodiments of the present application also provide an air conditioner 100, which includes the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110 and an air conditioner outdoor unit 120, wherein the air conditioner outdoor unit 120 has an outdoor heat exchanger (not shown in the figure), and the air conditioner indoor unit 110 has an indoor heat exchanger (not shown in the figure), and the outdoor heat exchanger (not shown in the figure) and the indoor heat exchanger (not shown in the figure) are interconnected to realize a heat exchange cycle.
[0101] Since the air conditioner 100 has the structure of the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110 , the air conditioner 100 also has the effect of the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110 .
[0102] In summary, the air conditioner indoor unit 110 of the present application provided by the embodiment of the present application is provided with a mounting unit 6, so that the first side 50 of the display box 5 can be embedded in the fixed space 600 formed by the fixing portion 60 and wrapped by the fixing portion 60, and the second side 51 of the display box 5 can cooperate with the mounting portion 61. When the second side 51 of the display box 5 enters the mounting space 610, the second side 51 of the display box 5 can cooperate with the mounting portion 61, so that the mounting portion 61 or the second side 51 is elastically deformed to form a space for the second side 51 to enter the mounting space 610, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 can enter the mounting space 610 and be fixed in the mounting space 610 by the mounting portion 61. In this way, the two opposite sides of the display box 5 are fixed, and the display box 5 can be firmly mounted and fixed on the panel 4.
[0103] In addition, due to the cooperation between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61, when the operator removes the display box 5, the operator can utilize the elastic deformation cooperation between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61, and through the space generated by the elastic deformation of the two, make the second side 51 of the display box 5 withdraw from the mounting space 610. Since the first side 50 of the display box 5 is fixed in the fixed space 600 and wrapped by the fixed portion 60, when the second side 51 of the display box 5 withdraws from the mounting space 610, the cooperation between the first side 50 of the display box 5 and the fixed portion 60 can make the display box 5 stay in the current position and will not fall from the panel 4. In this way, the operator only needs to remove the second side 51 of the display box 5 with one hand, and then pull the first side 50 of the display box 5 out of the fixed space 600, thereby realizing the one-handed operation of removing the display box 5, so that the display box 5 does not need to be assembled and removed using tools, and the assembly and removal operations of the display box 5 are also more convenient.
[0104] Moreover, the first side 50 and the second side 51 of the display box 5 of the present application respectively form an elastic fit with the mounting unit 6, and the connection between the first side 50 of the display box 5 and the fixing portion 60 has a certain elastic change, so that when the first side 50 of the display box 5 is inserted into the fixing space 600, the display box 5 can flexibly adjust the insertion angle, and the connection between the second side 51 of the display box 5 and the mounting portion 61 also has a certain elastic change, so that the second side 51 of the display box 5 can be directly pressed and pushed into the mounting space 610, and the operator can more easily assemble the display box 5 into the mounting unit 6. The present application also provides an air conditioner 100, which includes the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110, so the air conditioner 100 of the present application also has the beneficial effects of the aforementioned air conditioner indoor unit 110.
