Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to an air-conditioning outdoor unit and an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, in order to discharge the condensed water generated by the air conditioner out of the air conditioner, the technical means usually adopted are: the condensed water generated in the air-conditioned room is passed into the outdoor unit, and the condensed water is collected by a collection box, which is then mounted on the upper end of the outdoor unit and blown away by the fan. This method is difficult to ensure the timely discharge of the condensed water. For example, when the air conditioner is working continuously, the condensed water may leak out, which may easily cause accidental dripping of the outdoor unit. Therefore, a water collecting tank is usually arranged outside the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and the water outlet of the water collecting tank is connected to the sewer pipe. This method requires the additional installation of a water collecting tank and related pipe structures, which takes up a large space and the installation position is relatively limited, making it inconvenient to drain the air from the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0009] In one embodiment, the limit slot has an open side, and the open side is arranged away from the external machine body; and / or,

[0010] The limiting structure and the mounting bracket are formed integrally.

[0011] In one embodiment, the installation position of the outdoor drainage pipe and the external unit body is higher than the installation position of the outdoor drainage pipe and the limiting structure.

[0012] In one embodiment, the outdoor drain pipe and the mounting bracket are both mounted on the bottom of the external unit body, and the limiting structure is disposed on a side of the mounting bracket away from the bottom of the external unit body.

[0013] In one embodiment, a plurality of the limiting structures are provided on the mounting bracket, the plurality of limiting structures are arranged at intervals on the mounting bracket, and at least two of the plurality of limiting structures are disposed on opposite sides of the installation position of the outdoor drainage pipe and the external unit body.

[0023] The technical solution of the present utility model is to provide an outdoor drainage pipe and a mounting bracket on the outdoor unit main body. The mounting bracket is used to mount the outdoor unit main body. The outdoor drainage pipe is connected to the outdoor unit main body and at least partially located outside the outdoor unit main body. The length and bending shape of the outdoor drainage pipe can be arranged according to the actual installation scenario, so that the extension path and bending angle of the outdoor drainage pipe can be adjusted, facilitating the user to arrange the outdoor drainage pipe according to their own needs to facilitate the drainage of the air conditioner. Compared with the scheme of using a collection box to collect condensed water and then placing it on the upper end of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and blowing it away by the fan, this scheme can ensure that the condensed water is discharged from the air conditioner in time and reduce the possibility of water dripping from the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Compared with the scheme of designing a water collection tank outside the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and connecting the water outlet of the water collection tank to the sewer pipe, this scheme does not require an additional water collection tank, with lower cost, smaller overall occupied space, and does not need to consider the installation position of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and the location of the sewer, nor does it need to damage the outer wall to connect to the sewer, which is convenient for installation and does not damage the outer wall.

[0024] However, in order to ensure that the outdoor drainage pipe can be smoothly led to the preset position, the fixation and shaping of the outdoor drainage pipe often rely on other fixing parts. One end of the fixing part is fixed to the external wall or window sill, and the other end is fixed to the outdoor drainage pipe. This form will undoubtedly increase the components of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and may damage the wall or window sill. And due to the interference of the mounting bracket at the section connected to the outdoor unit main body, the fixing part is often not easy to install. Therefore, a limiting structure is provided on the mounting bracket to fix the outdoor drainage pipe, that is, the limiting structure is directly fixed on the mounting bracket, which facilitates the fixation of the limiting structure, reduces the number of components, and reduces the possibility of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner draining water and damaging the wall or window sill.

[0042] The present utility model provides an outdoor unit 100 of an air conditioner for an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner and an indoor unit of the air conditioner. A flexible connection assembly is respectively connected to the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit 100. The air conditioner can be a split-type air conditioner that facilitates personal installation by the user. It uses refrigerant pipes to connect the indoor-side heat exchanger of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor-side heat exchanger of the outdoor unit 100, 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 of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit 100 respectively, and does not need to assemble the refrigerant pipes and add refrigerant, thereby reducing the installation difficulty and realizing personal installation by the user. However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the air conditioner of the present utility model can also be an ordinary split-type air conditioner or an integrated air conditioner.

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner includes:

[0044] An outer machine main body 1;

[0045] An outdoor drain pipe 2, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is connected to the outer machine main body 1 for discharging the condensed water in the outer machine main body 1; and

[0046] A mounting bracket 3, the mounting bracket 3 is used to mount the outer machine main body 1, and a limiting structure 31 is provided on the mounting bracket 3, and the limiting structure 31 fixes the outdoor drain pipe 2.

[0047] Specifically, the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is used for an air conditioner, which includes the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner and an indoor unit of the air conditioner. The flexible connection assembly is respectively connected to the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit 100, and the flexible connection assembly may include a flexible refrigerant pipe and an indoor drain pipe, and a sleeve sleeved on the flexible refrigerant pipe and the indoor drain pipe, or includes a flexible refrigerant pipe, an indoor drain pipe and an energized wire, and a sleeve that simultaneously sleeves the three. For a split air conditioner, the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit 100 need to be connected through a flexible refrigerant pipe and an energized wire. To facilitate the discharge of the condensed water generated by the indoor unit of the air conditioner indoors, the indoor drain pipe is usually introduced into the outdoor unit 100 together with the flexible refrigerant pipe and the energized wire, so as to facilitate the connection between the indoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor unit 100, and facilitate the secondary utilization of the condensed water.

[0048] The indoor drain pipe is used to discharge the condensed water in the indoor unit of the air conditioner to the main body 1 of the outdoor unit, and then discharged from the air conditioner by the outdoor drain pipe 2. The outdoor drain pipe 2 is connected to the main body 1 of the outdoor unit and is at least partially located outside the main body 1 of the outdoor unit. The length and bending shape of the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be arranged according to the actual installation scenario, so that the extension path and bending angle of the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be adjusted, so as to facilitate the user to arrange the outdoor drain pipe 2 according to their own needs to facilitate the drainage of the air conditioner. In this embodiment, the main body 1 of the outdoor unit is installed outside the window through the mounting bracket 3, and the condensed water is led to the corner by the outdoor drain pipe 2 for discharge. However, this solution is not limited thereto, as long as the condensed water can be led out of the air conditioner through the outdoor drain pipe 2, it is within the protection scope of this solution.

[0049] Compared with the solution of using a collection box to collect the condensed water and then placing it on the upper end of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner to be blown away by the fan, this solution can ensure that the condensed water is discharged from the air conditioner in time and reduce the possibility of dripping water from the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner; compared with the solution of designing a water collection tank outside the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, the water outlet of the water collection tank is connected to the sewer pipe, this solution does not require an additional water collection tank, has a lower cost, occupies less overall space, and does not need to consider the installation position of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner and the location of the sewer, nor does it need to externally damage the outer wall to communicate with the sewer, which is both convenient for installation and does not damage the outer wall. And in this solution, only by means of the outdoor drain pipe 2 can the condensed water of the air conditioner be discharged to a suitable position, which is not only convenient for installation and for discharging the condensed water of the air conditioner, but also has a lower installation cost.

[0050] However, to ensure that the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be smoothly led to the preset position, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is often configured as a flexible pipe to ensure that the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be bent arbitrarily as needed. However, the fixation and shaping of the outdoor drain pipe 2 often rely on other fixing parts. One end of the fixing part is fixed to the external wall or window sill, and the other end is fixed to the outdoor drain pipe 2. This form will undoubtedly increase the components of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, and may damage the wall or window sill. Moreover, due to the interference of the mounting bracket 3 at the section connected to the main body 1 of the outdoor unit, the fixing part is often difficult to install. Therefore, a limiting structure 31 is provided on the mounting bracket 3 to fix the outdoor drain pipe 2, that is, the limiting structure 31 is directly provided on the mounting bracket 3, which facilitates the fixation of the limiting structure 31, reduces the number of components, and reduces the possibility of the drainage of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 damaging the wall or window sill.

[0051] Among them, the indoor drain pipe discharges the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit into the main body 1 of the outdoor unit, and then the outdoor drain pipe 2 discharges the condensed water in the main body 1 of the outdoor unit. However, the discharge path of the condensed water in the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 is not restricted. For example, the indoor drain pipe can discharge the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit onto the outdoor heat exchanger on the outdoor side in the main body 1 of the outdoor unit to assist the outdoor heat exchanger in dissipating heat in the cooling mode of the air conditioner, and then drip onto the chassis 11 of the main body 1 of the outdoor unit, and then flow to the outdoor drain pipe 2 through the chassis 11; it can also be directly discharged onto the chassis 11 of the main body 1 of the outdoor unit, and then flow to the outdoor drain pipe 2 through the chassis 11; it can also be directly connected to the outdoor drain pipe 2 and directly discharged through the outdoor drain pipe 2; that is, as long as the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit can pass through the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, it is not necessarily required to make the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit stay in the main body 1 of the outdoor unit.

[0052] To facilitate the fixation of the outdoor drain pipe 2, in the embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the limiting structure 31 is provided with a limiting card slot 32, and the outdoor drain pipe 2 is clamped in the limiting card slot 32. Specifically, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is clamped in the limiting card slot 32, which facilitates the clamping of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and simplifies the structure of the limiting structure 31.

[0053] Furthermore, the limiting card slot 32 has an opening side 321, and the opening side 321 is arranged away from the external machine body 1. Since the outdoor drain pipe 2 is led out from the external machine body 1, if the opening side 321 of the limiting card slot 32 is arranged toward the external machine body 1, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is easy to be separated from the limiting card slot 32, so the opening side 321 is arranged away from the external machine body 1, thereby reducing the possibility of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the limiting card slot 32 being separated from each other. In order to further reduce the possibility of the outdoor drain pipe 2 being separated from the limiting card slot 32, in this embodiment, the width of the opening side 321 is smaller than the diameter of the outdoor drain pipe 2, and when the outdoor drain pipe 2 is connected, the elasticity of the outdoor drain pipe 2 is used to clamp the opening side 321 into the limiting card slot 32, so that the opening side 321 can provide a barrier for the outdoor drain pipe 2.

[0054] To facilitate the fixation of the limiting structure 31, in the embodiment of the utility model, the limiting structure 31 and the mounting bracket 3 are integrally formed, thereby ensuring the fixing stability of the limiting structure 31 and facilitating the processing of the limiting structure 31. Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting structure 31 can also be bonded or welded to the mounting bracket 3.

[0055] To facilitate the discharge of condensed water in the external unit body 1, the installation position of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the external unit body 1 is higher than the installation position of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the limiting structure 31, so that the installation height of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the external unit body 1 is lower, thereby facilitating the discharge of condensed water in the external unit body 1 and reducing the possibility of backflow of condensed water in the indoor drain pipe.

[0056] Further, the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the mounting bracket 3 are both mounted on the bottom of the external machine body 1, and the limiting structure 31 is provided on the side of the mounting bracket 3 away from the bottom of the external machine body 1. That is, when the mounting bracket 3 is connected to the bottom of the external machine body 1, the limiting structure 31 can be directly fixed on the side of the mounting bracket 3 away from the bottom of the external machine body 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 The mounting bracket 3 includes a first supporting portion extending horizontally, and a second supporting portion arranged between the bottom of the first supporting portion and the wall. The first supporting portion is supported on the bottom of the external machine body 1, and the second supporting portion further supports the first supporting portion. At this time, the first limiting structure 31 can be arranged on the side of the first supporting portion away from the external machine body 1, or on the second supporting portion.

[0057] In other embodiments, the mounting bracket 3 includes a first mounting portion and a second mounting portion, the first mounting portion is mounted on the rear panel of the external machine body 1, and the second mounting portion connects the first mounting portion and the wall. At this time, the first limiting structure 31 is arranged at the bottom of the second mounting portion and / or the first mounting portion.

[0058] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5, in an embodiment of the present utility model, a plurality of limiting structures 31 are provided on the mounting bracket 3. The plurality of limiting structures 31 are arranged at intervals on the mounting bracket 3, and at least two of the plurality of limiting structures 31 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the installation positions of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the outdoor unit main body 1. Specifically, the plurality of limiting structures 31 are arranged at intervals on the mounting bracket 3 to jointly fix the outdoor drain pipe 2 and limit the extending direction of the outdoor drain pipe 2. At least two of the plurality of limiting structures 31 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the installation positions of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the outdoor unit main body 1. Since the extending direction of the outdoor drain pipe 2 may be different in different installation environments, limiting structures 31 are provided on both opposite sides of the installation positions of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and the outdoor unit main body 1. No matter how the user actually installs it, when the outdoor drain pipe 2 extends to either side, the limiting structure 31 can fix the outdoor drain pipe 2, thereby improving the installation adaptability of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the outdoor unit main body 1 has an outdoor heat exchanger provided inside the outdoor unit main body 1. The chassis 11 of the outdoor unit main body 1 is provided with a mounting hole 111 for connecting the outdoor drain pipe 2, and the mounting hole 111 is located below the outdoor heat exchanger. Specifically, the mounting hole 111 is used to connect the outdoor drain pipe 2 so that the outdoor drain pipe 2 communicates with the inside of the outdoor unit main body 1. The mounting hole 111 is provided on the chassis 11 of the outdoor unit main body 1. When the indoor drain pipe and the outdoor drain pipe 2 are not directly connected, for example, the indoor drain pipe can drain the condensed water in the air conditioner indoor unit onto the outdoor heat exchanger inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100. In the cooling mode of the air conditioner, after assisting the outdoor heat exchanger to dissipate heat, it is then discharged by the outdoor drain pipe 2. The mounting hole 111 is provided on the chassis 11, which can facilitate the condensed water to flow into the mounting hole 111 after dripping from the outdoor heat exchanger. And the mounting hole 111 is located below the outdoor heat exchanger, which further facilitates the condensed water to flow into the mounting hole 111 after dripping from the outdoor heat exchanger. And to facilitate the flow of the condensed water on the chassis 11, a guiding channel can be opened on the chassis 11, and the mounting hole 111 is correspondingly opened at the bottom of the guiding channel, so as to guide the condensed water on the chassis 11 and facilitate the condensed water to flow into the mounting hole 111, and can also reduce the possibility of accidental leakage of the condensed water when the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 is installed obliquely.

[0060] Please refer to Figures 6 to 10 , to facilitate the installation of the outdoor drain pipe 2, in an embodiment of the present utility model, a pipe joint 4 is installed on the mounting hole 111, and the outdoor drain pipe 2 is connected to the pipe joint 4. Specifically, one end of the pipe joint 4 is installed on the mounting hole 111, and the other end is connected to the outdoor drain pipe 2, thereby facilitating the installation of the outdoor drain pipe 2. When the indoor drain pipe needs to be directly connected to the outdoor drain pipe 2, the indoor drain pipe can directly extend into the outdoor unit main body 1 and be connected to the indoor drain pipe.

[0061] Moreover, in order to reduce the accidental leakage of condensed water, in the embodiment of the present invention, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is inserted into the other end of the pipe joint 4, and an anti - detachment ring convex 45 is provided at the other end of the outdoor drain pipe 2 and / or the pipe joint 4. That is, if the outdoor drain pipe 2 is sleeved on the other end of the pipe joint 4, the anti - detachment ring convex 45 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the end of the pipe joint 4 close to the outdoor drain pipe 2 or the inner peripheral surface of the outdoor drain pipe 2; if the outdoor drain pipe 2 is inserted into the other end of the pipe joint 4, the anti - detachment ring convex 45 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the end of the pipe joint 4 close to the outdoor drain pipe 2 or the outer peripheral surface of the outdoor drain pipe 2. Thus, it can not only reduce the possibility of accidental detachment of the outdoor drain pipe 2, but also ensure the sealing performance between the pipe joint 4 and the outdoor drain pipe 2, reducing the possibility of accidental leakage of condensed water.

[0062] To facilitate the timely discharge of condensed water in the outdoor unit main body 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, please refer again to Figures 6 to 10 , a plurality of water passing openings 41 are spaced around the circumference of the end of the pipe joint 4 inserted into the mounting hole 111. The water passing openings 41 are used for the condensed water on the chassis 11 to flow out, and a buckle 42 is provided at the water passing opening 41. A plurality of buckles 42 are clamped on the edge of the mounting hole 111; the outdoor drain pipe 2 is connected to the other end of the pipe joint 4.

[0063] Specifically, since one end of the pipe joint 4 is inserted into the mounting hole 111, the water inlet level at the pipe joint 4 is necessarily higher than the water flow bottom surface of the chassis 11, resulting in some condensed water accumulating in the outdoor unit main body 1 and being difficult to discharge. Therefore, a plurality of water passing openings 41 are spaced around the circumference of the end of the pipe joint 4 inserted into the mounting hole 111, so as to lower the water inlet level at the pipe joint 4, making the water inlet level at the pipe joint 4 flush with or lower than the water flow bottom surface of the chassis 11, thus facilitating the discharge of condensed water in the outdoor unit main body 1. And for the convenience of installing the pipe joint 4, a buckle 42 is provided at the water passing opening 41, and a plurality of buckles 42 are clamped on the edge of the mounting hole 111, so that the water passing opening 41 can provide an avoidance function for the buckle 42, without having to open an avoidance notch on the periphery of the mounting hole 111, thus facilitating the processing of the mounting hole 111. During actual installation, only need to insert the pipe joint 4 into the mounting hole 111. When the buckle 42 passes through the mounting hole 111, the buckle 42 can be clamped on the edge of the mounting hole 111, thus facilitating the installation of the pipe joint 4.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present invention, one end of the pipe joint is provided with a plurality of buckles spaced at intervals in the circumferential direction. The plurality of buckles are clamped on the edge of the mounting hole, and the interval between any two adjacent buckles forms a water passing gap for the condensed water on the chassis to flow out; the outdoor drain pipe is connected to the other end of the pipe joint. However, at this time, an avoidance notch needs to be provided on the edge of the mounting hole corresponding to each buckle. After the buckle passes through the corresponding avoidance notch and rotates the pipe joint, the buckle can be clamped on the edge of the mounting hole.

[0065] Further, an annular abutting portion 43 spaced from the buckle 42 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the pipe joint 4, and the annular abutting portion 43 and the buckle 42 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the chassis 11. Specifically, the annular abutting portion 43 is spaced from the buckle 42, and the annular abutting portion 43 and the buckle 42 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the chassis 11, so that the annular abutting portion 43 presses the chassis 11 to ensure that the buckle 42 tightly clamps the edge of the mounting hole 111, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the first pipe joint 4.

[0066] To further reduce the possibility of water leakage between the pipe joint 4 and the mounting hole 111, an annular seal 44 is provided between the annular abutting portion 43 and the mounting hole 111. The annular seal 44 seals between the mounting hole 111 and the annular abutting portion 43, thereby further sealing the mounting hole 111 and reducing the possibility of water leakage between the pipe joint 4 and the mounting hole 111.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is configured as a corrugated pipe. The corrugated pipe can be bent at any angle, which is convenient for the layout of the outdoor drain pipe 2 in the outdoor space. The corrugated pipe can also be telescoped, so that when the user needs to adjust the length of the outdoor drain pipe 2, it is not necessary to cut with scissors, and it is convenient for the storage of the outdoor drain pipe 2. In the stretched state, after bending the outdoor drain pipe 2, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is fixed in the bent state. Without applying external force, the outdoor drain pipe 2 will not rebound by itself, which is convenient for the layout of the outdoor drain pipe 2.

[0068] In other embodiments, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is configured as a flexible member, and a bendable skeleton is provided in the outdoor drain pipe 2, such as inserting a wire into the diameter of the outdoor drain pipe 2 to ensure that the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be fixed after being bent by the user; the bendable skeleton can also be installed outside the outdoor drain pipe 2, such as sleeved on the outdoor drain pipe 2 and extending along with the extension of the outdoor drain pipe 2; or, the outdoor drain pipe 2 is configured as a bendable rigid pipe. Specifically, the rigidity only means that the outdoor drain pipe 2 can be fixed after being bent, rather than indicating that the outdoor drain pipe 2 is an inflexible rigid structure. Therefore, the bendable rigid pipe can be directly fixed after being bent by the user, which is convenient for the fixation of the outdoor drain pipe 2.
