[0034] When connecting an air conditioner indoor unit and an outdoor unit with a refrigerant hose, in order to ensure the stable connection of the hose, part of it needs to be fixed on the housing. Currently, this fixing method mainly relies on screwing with screws. In this process, the staff needs to manually fix the hose first and then use tools to screw the screws into the fixing parts for fixation. This operation method is not only difficult to be independently completed by a single person, but also because the position where the refrigerant hose is arranged is often narrow in space, even for two-person operation, it has relatively high requirements for the proficiency and cooperation of the operators, resulting in low labor efficiency.

[0035] In addition, considering the high and rising labor costs, the traditional screw-locking method is also not economically efficient. What makes users more headache is that many users may not have professional installation skills, and the traditional fixing method is relatively complex, which leads to many users being unable to complete the installation by themselves and having to seek the help of professionals, thus increasing the additional installation cost.

[0036] For the convenience of fixing the refrigerant hose on the indoor unit or the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and without the need for multiple people to operate.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner (not shown) includes an indoor unit of the air conditioner (not shown) and an outdoor unit of the air conditioner (not shown), and a refrigerant hose 100 respectively connecting the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Please refer to Figure 1 , the refrigerant hose 100 is pre-positioned on the fixing panel 200 through a fixing member 300 and is fixed through a locking structure 400.

[0038] In one embodiment, the fixing panel 200 is disposed on the indoor unit of the air conditioner and can serve as an outer panel or an inner partition of the indoor unit of the air conditioner; in one embodiment, the fixing panel 200 is disposed on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; in other embodiments, the fixing panel 200 may also be provided on both the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0039] Specifically, a first positioning portion 210 and a second positioning portion 220 are spaced apart on the plate surface 201 of the fixing panel 200, and the refrigerant hose 100 is placed between the first positioning portion 210 and the second positioning portion 220; the fixing member 300 is provided with a limiting portion 301 for limiting the refrigerant pipe and a first fixing portion 302 and a second fixing portion 303 respectively pre-positioned and matched with the first positioning portion 210 and the second positioning portion 220; the fixing member 300 is fixedly connected to the fixing panel 200 through the locking structure 400.

[0040] The refrigerant hose 200 is a pipe that plays a key role in the refrigeration system. Its main function is to connect the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner to transport and recover the refrigerant. The refrigerant hose 200 is usually made of high-elastic rubber or polyurethane as the material, so that the hose has excellent compressive performance and corrosion resistance. The refrigerant hose 200 is generally bent, so that it can flexibly adapt to various installation environments and space limitations. The refrigerant hose is usually connected by a quick connector. The refrigerant hose 200 is responsible for transporting the refrigerant from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit during the refrigeration process to ensure the normal operation of the refrigeration system. When needed, the refrigerant hose 200 can also be used to recover the refrigerant in the indoor unit to realize the recycling of the refrigerant. The refrigerant will change in volume during the heating and cooling processes, and the flexible pipe can eliminate the stress of this kind of pipe to a certain extent to prevent the pipe from loosening or breaking. The refrigerant hose 200 can better adapt to various complex environments in industrial places such as buildings and equipment, such as restricted spaces, various angles and detailed components.

[0041] The technical solution of the present utility model realizes pre-positioning by using the fixing member 300 and the fixing panel 200. When fixing the refrigerant hose 100, through the first positioning portion 210, the first fixing portion 302, the second positioning portion 220, and the second fixing portion 303, the refrigerant hose 100 can be pre-positioned on the fixing panel 200 first. The movement of the refrigerant hose 100 is restricted by the limiting portion 301, and there is no need to continuously press to fix the refrigerant hose 100, thus freeing both hands. Then, the fixing member 300 is locked to the fixing panel 200 through the locking structure 400 to realize the fixing of the refrigerant hose 100. In this way, the quick fixing and installation of the connecting hose can be realized, which can be operated by a single person, the assembly is simple, the production efficiency of the product is improved, and the requirements of mass production are met.

[0042] To ensure the safe and stable arrangement of the refrigerant hose 100 between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and to prevent the refrigerant hose 100 from shifting or being damaged due to vibration or other external forces during operation.

[0043] Refer to Figures 2 to 4 , the fixing member 300 includes a main body section 310 and a first folded edge section 320 and a second folded edge section 330 provided on both sides of the main body section 310. Refer to Figure 2 , the limiting portion 301 is a clamping groove 311 formed by the main body section 310 recessing along the side away from the refrigerant hose 100, and at least a part of the outer wall of the refrigerant hose 100 is clamped with the clamping groove 311; the first fixing portion 302 is provided on the first folded edge section 320, and the second fixing portion 303 is provided on the second folded edge section 330.

[0044] During use, the fixing member 300 is clamped on the refrigerant hose 100 through the clamping groove 311, and the fixing member 300 is moved to a suitable position so that the first fixing portion 302 of the first folded edge section 320 is aligned with the first positioning portion 210, and the second fixing portion 303 is aligned with the second positioning portion 220, so as to facilitate the assembly of the first fixing portion 302 and the first positioning portion 210, and the second fixing portion 303 and the second positioning portion 220. The fixing member 300 is pre-positioned on the fixing panel 200, thereby restricting the movement of the refrigerant hose 100, ensuring that the refrigerant hose 100 is stably fixed on the fixing panel 200 and will not shift due to vibration or other external forces, and facilitating the subsequent locking operation of the fixing member 300. The fixing member 300 is arranged in the form of a main body section 310 and two folded edge sections, with a simple structure, using less material, thus reducing costs and optimizing space utilization and being easy to install.

[0045] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in this embodiment, in order to simplify the installation process, improve the stability and fixing effect of the fixing member 300, and at the same time facilitate maintenance and adapt to different installation environments, the entire first folded edge section 320 is the first fixing portion 302, and the first fixing portion 302 is in clamping fit with the first positioning portion 210.

[0046] Specifically, the first positioning portion 210 is configured to protrude a positioning protrusion 211 from the plate surface 201 of the fixing panel 200, and a limiting groove 212 is formed between the positioning protrusion 211 and the plate surface 201 of the fixing panel 200; the first folded edge segment 320 is clamped in the limiting groove 212.

[0047] Regarding the first folded edge segment 320 as the whole of the first fixing portion 302 simplifies the structure of the fixing member 300, reduces the number of components, and can lower the production and manufacturing costs. The clamping fit method usually does not require the use of additional tools. During installation, only by inserting the first folded edge segment 320 into the limiting groove 212 can the fixing be completed, which improves the installation efficiency. The limiting groove 212 formed between the positioning protrusion 211 and the fixing panel 200 can limit the movement of the fixing member 300 on the panel, improve the stability of the fixing member 300, and prevent the displacement of the fixing member 300 caused by vibration or other reasons. And this design enables the fixing member 300 to adapt to fixing panels 200 of different thicknesses, and only by adjusting the height of the positioning protrusion 211 or the depth of the limiting groove 212 can the flexibility of the design be improved.

[0048] In other embodiments, the first fixing portion 302 is provided as a protruding or projecting snap structure located on the first folded edge segment 320. The first positioning portion 210 is provided as a corresponding groove or hole structure located on the fixing panel 200 for receiving the snap of the first fixing portion 302. It can also be set in the opposite way.

[0049] Refer to Figure 2 , on this basis, the locking structure 400 includes a first locking hole 410 provided on the first folded edge segment 320 and a first mounting hole 420 provided on the fixing panel 200 and corresponding to the first locking hole 410. The first folded edge segment 320 is attached to the fixing panel 200 under the action of the fastener 500. By screwing a screw into the first mounting hole 420 and the first locking hole 410, the screw passes through the fixing panel 200, thereby firmly fixing the fixing member 300 on the fixing panel 200.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to simplify the installation process, improve the stability and fixing effect of the fixing member 300, and at the same time facilitate maintenance and adapt to different installation environments, the second folded edge segment 330 is the whole of the second fixing portion 303, and the second folded edge segment 330 and the second positioning portion 220 are in clamping fit.

[0051] Specifically, the second positioning portion 220 is configured as a positioning plate 221 extending away from the plate surface 201 of the fixing panel 200 and an elastic snap 221 formed on the positioning plate 221; the second folded edge segment 330 is in clamping fit with the elastic snap 221.

[0052] Refer to Figures 2 to 4, taking the entire second folded edge section 330 as the second fixing part 303 simplifies the structure of the fixing member 300, reduces the number of components, and can lower the production and manufacturing costs. The snap-fit method usually does not require the use of additional tools. During installation, first insert the first folded edge section 320 into the limiting groove 212 to complete the pre-positioning on one side, and then press the second folded edge section 330 so that the elastic snap 221 limits the second folded edge section 330 to complete the pre-positioning process.

[0053] The design of the elastic snap 221 usually makes the installation process simpler and faster. Without using tools, just insert the second folded edge section 330 into the elastic snap 221, and utilize the elasticity of the snap to achieve fixation. The elastic snap 221 can provide a certain elastic deformation ability, which enables the second folded edge section 330 to more easily adapt to the shape and size of the second positioning part 220 during snap connection. Even if there are slight dimensional deviations or deformations, a good fit can still be maintained.

[0054] Refer to Figure 2 , the elastic snap 221 is formed by partial bending of the positioning plate 221, and a hollow groove 222 is formed on the positioning plate 221. When the elastic snap 221 is squeezed, the hollow groove 222 can also play a role in making way, facilitating the reset and snap connection of the elastic snap 221 to the second folded edge section 330.

[0055] Specifically, a positioning plate 221 is provided on each of the upper and lower sides of the second folded edge section 330, and the elastic snaps 221 on the two positioning plates 221 both snap onto the second folded edge section 330; in other embodiments, the positioning plate 221 can be provided on one side of the short side of the second folded edge section 330, and at least extend from the middle of the short side to both sides by more than half of the length of the short side.

[0056] In other embodiments, the second fixing part 303 is also set as a protruding or projecting snap structure located on the second folded edge section 330. The second positioning part 220 is set as a corresponding groove or hole structure located on the fixing panel 200 for receiving the snap of the second fixing part 303.

[0057] On this basis, the locking structure 400 includes a second locking hole 430 provided on the second folded edge section 330 and a second mounting hole 440 provided on the fixing panel 200 and corresponding to the second locking hole 430. The second folded edge section 330 is attached to the fixing panel 200 under the action of the fastener 500. The second folded edge section 330 is attached to the fixing panel 200 under the action of the fastener 500. By screwing a screw into the second mounting hole 440 and the second locking hole 430, the screw passes through the fixing panel 200, thereby firmly fixing the fixing member 300 on the fixing panel 200.

[0058] Either the first locking hole 410 and the first mounting hole 420, or the second locking hole 430 and the second mounting hole 440 can be locked; or both can be locked. Understandably, through the pre-positioning effect of the fixing member 300 and the positioning portion of the fixing panel 200, the installer can operate with both hands for the fixing operation.

[0059] In addition, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in this embodiment, in order to avoid installation errors and greatly improve the assembly efficiency, anti-mistake measures are taken for the fixing member 300 and the refrigerant hose 100. The structures of the fixing member 300 and the refrigerant hose 100 are symmetrically arranged. When fixing, the installer does not need to judge the part direction. In this way, anti-mistake is effectively achieved, wrong installation and misinstallation are avoided, and the installation difficulty is reduced.

[0060] Specifically, the first folded edge section 320 and the second folded edge section 330 are symmetric with respect to the main body section 310. The first folded edge section 320 and the second folded edge section 330 have the same structure. During installation, without distinction, the first folded edge section 320 can be inserted into the clamping groove 311, and the second folded edge section 330 is clamped with the buckle. Or the second folded edge section 330 can be inserted into the clamping groove 311, and the first folded edge section 320 is clamped with the buckle.

[0061] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , specifically, the refrigerant hose 100 has a first pipe orifice 101 and a second pipe orifice 102 in a cross-section perpendicular to the extension center line. The first pipe orifice 101 and the second pipe orifice 102 are important interfaces of the refrigerant hose 100. They are used to connect different components in the air-conditioning system to ensure that the refrigerant (refrigerant) circulates in the system, thereby realizing the functions of refrigeration or heating.

[0062] In this embodiment, the first pipe orifice 101 and the second pipe orifice 102 are symmetric with respect to the extension center line, and the cross-sections of the pipelines (not shown) inside the first pipe orifice 101 and the second pipe orifice 102 can be different to adapt to different flow requirements.

[0063] The cross-section of the refrigerant hose is elliptical and symmetric with respect to the extension center line. When the fixing member 300 is clamped on the outer wall of the refrigerant hose, that is, the outer wall of the refrigerant hose 100 is adapted to the shape of the clamping groove 311 of the limiting portion 301. During clamping, there is no need to distinguish between up / down or front / back, which can reduce the installation difficulty.

[0064] Furthermore, a refrigerant medium is preset in the refrigerant hose 100. The air conditioner of the present utility model can be a split-type air conditioner that is convenient for users to install personally. It uses a flexible refrigerant pipe to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and injects refrigerant into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. In this way, when the user installs the equipment by himself, he only needs to fix the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner respectively. The fixing member 300 and the refrigerant hose 100 have anti-fooling designs, and the refrigerant hose 100 is pre-charged with refrigerant, so that even if the installer has no corresponding basic knowledge, it will not be affected, breaking the traditional need for professional technicians to come to install and perform professional operations such as vacuum pumping, thereby reducing the installation difficulty and realizing personal installation by the user.

[0065] In one embodiment, the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be integrally arranged. At this time, the air conditioner is a mobile air conditioner, which does not require an external exhaust pipe or an outdoor unit, and all components are integrated in one unit; the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner are connected by a flexible refrigerant pipe; and the compressor of the air conditioner can be further arranged in the indoor unit. However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the air conditioner of the present utility model can also be a common split-type air conditioner.

[0066] In this way, the air conditioner is convenient for users to install personally. It uses a flexible refrigerant pipe to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and injects refrigerant into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. In this way, when the user installs the equipment by himself, he only needs to fix the indoor unit and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner respectively, without the need to assemble the refrigerant pipe and add refrigerant, thereby reducing the installation difficulty and realizing personal installation by the user.

[0067] After arranging the compressor in the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the weight of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be reduced, making it more convenient for the user to move the outdoor unit of the air conditioner by himself to find a suitable installation position, reducing the installation difficulty and reducing the installation labor cost, especially in areas where the labor cost is expensive. Correspondingly, in order to reduce noise, the compressor arranged in the indoor unit is subjected to noise reduction treatment, such as filling noise reduction materials; a buffer structure is set to reduce the transmission of compressor vibration.

[0068] In this way, the present utility model provides an air conditioner that is more simple, efficient and suitable for DIY installation by users. When fixing the refrigerant hose, a fixing member is used to clamp the outer wall of the refrigerant hose, then one side of the fixing member is inserted into the card slot, and the other side is clamped by an elastic buckle, reducing the requirements for the operator's skills, while improving the installation efficiency and safety. Greatly simplify the installation process, enabling users to easily complete the fixing operation without relying on professionals.

[0069] The above are only exemplary embodiments of the present utility model, and do not thus limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the technical concept of the present utility model by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
