[0074] In some embodiments of the utility model, reinforcing ribs may be provided at the intersection of the first plate portion 1410 and the second plate portion 1420 on the support member 140. The reinforcing ribs can enhance the strength and rigidity of the product by locally increasing the material thickness without increasing the wall thickness of the product, thereby saving material usage, reducing weight, and reducing costs. Moreover, the product can overcome the distortion caused by uneven stress due to the difference in wall thickness, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the structure.

[0075] In some embodiments of the utility model, the support member 140 can be processed by a sheet metal stamping process. A series of through holes on the support member 140 can be processed by a punching process to bend the metal sheet into a desired shape along a certain bending line. Polishing, spraying and other processes can also be performed later to improve the surface quality and aesthetics of the product. The stamping process can realize automated production and greatly improve production efficiency.

The stamping process can ensure the accuracy and consistency of the parts and meet the production of products with high precision requirements. And the stamping process is suitable for the processing of various metal materials, including aluminum, copper, stainless steel, etc.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present invention, the support member 140 can be made of materials such as stainless steel and aluminum. Stainless steel has high strength and hardness, can withstand high pressure and load, and is a material more suitable for use as a support structure. In addition, the surface of stainless steel is smooth and is not easy to adhere to bacteria and dirt.

[0077] In some embodiments of the utility model, the functional module 160 can be a humidification module, and the humidification module has a water storage drawer that can be pulled forward. In winter or dry seasons, the indoor humidity is often low. The use of an air conditioning humidification module can effectively increase the air humidity and reduce problems such as dry skin and throat discomfort. Appropriate humidity helps reduce dust and bacterial suspension in the air and improves indoor air quality. Too low humidity may cause problems such as cracking of wood furniture and falling off of wallpaper. The humidification module helps maintain appropriate humidity and protect furniture and decoration materials.

[0078] The functional module 160 can also be an air purification module with a replaceable filter element, so that the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a fresh air function. The air purification module can remove dust, pollen, bacteria, viruses and other tiny particles in the air, as well as harmful gases such as formaldehyde and benzene, and reduce the concentration of indoor air pollutants. Through purification, the indoor air is made fresher and healthier, and the incidence of allergic diseases and respiratory diseases is reduced. The damage of dust in the air to furniture and decoration materials is reduced, and their service life is extended.
