[0041] The realization, functional features and advantages of the purpose of the present utility model will be further described in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiments

[0042] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0043] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back,...) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative position relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0044] In addition, if the descriptions such as "first" and "second" are involved in the embodiments of the present utility model, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing throughout the text includes three parallel scenarios. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes Scenario A, or Scenario B, or the scenario where both A and B are satisfied simultaneously. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement. When the combination of technical solutions results in contradictions or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0045] To facilitate the description of the air conditioner outdoor unit of this solution, the air conditioner installation position 920 in the related art will be introduced first. Please refer to Figure 12 , generally speaking, the air conditioner installation position 920 is in a frame shape with a single-sided opening. The opening is used for installing the air conditioner outdoor unit into the air conditioner installation position 920 and for dissipating the heat emitted by the air conditioner outdoor unit to the outside. And the distance between the frame of the air conditioner installation position 920 and the air conditioner outdoor unit is relatively close to achieve the installation and protection of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Since this kind of air conditioner installation position 920 is very common, when maintaining the air conditioner outdoor unit, it is often necessary to unlock the locking structure between the air conditioner outdoor unit and the air conditioner installation position 920, then flip or take out the air conditioner outdoor unit from the air conditioner installation position 920, then remove the top cover 200, and finally remove the front panel 400, and then maintain the air conditioner outdoor unit. The disassembly and assembly are inconvenient. However, the installation and maintenance of the air conditioner outdoor unit are usually high-altitude operations, and the above-mentioned inconvenient disassembly and assembly maintenance operations are likely to increase the operation risks of technicians.

[0046] The present utility model proposes an air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0047] In the embodiments of the present utility model, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 , the air conditioner outdoor unit includes:

[0048] A chassis 100 and a top cover 200, with the chassis 100 and the top cover 200 arranged at intervals up and down;

[0049] Two side plates 300, with the two side plates 300 arranged oppositely. The upper ends of the side plates 300 are connected to the edges of the top cover 200, and the lower ends of the side plates 300 are connected to the edges of the chassis 100. The same side of the chassis 100, the top cover 200, and the two side plates 300 enclose an installation opening 500; and

[0050] A front panel 400, which is pivotally covered on the installation opening 500.

[0051] The technical solution of the present utility model encloses an installation opening 500 by one side of the chassis 100, the top cover 200 and the two side plates 300, and sets the front panel 400 to be openably covered on the installation opening 500 so that the front panel 400 is directly exposed outside. During daily use, the front panel 400 is fixed on the installation opening 500, so that the casing of the air conditioner outdoor unit forms a stable protection for the internal components. When maintenance of the air conditioner outdoor unit is required, the maintenance personnel can directly open the front panel 400 on the installation opening 500, so that the components to be maintained inside the air conditioner outdoor unit are directly exposed in front of the maintenance personnel. Thus, the maintenance personnel can directly face the air conditioner outdoor unit for maintenance operations. Compared with the prior art where it is necessary to first disassemble the top cover 200 and then disassemble the front panel 400, the disassembly and assembly of the front panel 400 in this solution will not be blocked, and the maintenance personnel can disassemble and assemble the front panel 400 more conveniently, and then perform maintenance operations on the air conditioner outdoor unit, thereby improving the maintenance convenience of the maintenance personnel for the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0052] It should be noted that the edge of the front panel 400 can be in a movable connection relationship with one of the chassis 100, the top cover 200 or the side plate 300, and the other edges are detachably connected to the remaining edges of the installation opening 500, so as to realize the opening and closing of the installation opening 500 with the edge of the front panel 400 as the center. Among them, the movable connection method is specifically a rotational connection, a sliding connection, etc. Or, the periphery of the front panel 400 is covered on the installation opening 500 through a detachable connection method. Or, the front panel 400 is divided into two sub-panels, and the mutually remote sides of the two sub-panels are respectively rotatably connected to the corresponding edges of the installation opening 500, and the corresponding parts of the installation opening 500 are respectively opened and closed by opening and closing the sub-panels, so as to realize the maintenance of the air conditioner outdoor unit by opening and closing the installation opening 500 through the front panel 400, referring to an outward-pushing double-door, or, the two sub-panels are respectively slidably connected to the installation opening 500, referring to a flat-pushing double-door. It can be understood that the front panel 400 is openably covered on the installation opening 500, which can be that a part of the front panel 400 is fixed to the corresponding part of the installation opening 500, and the other part of the front panel 400 can movably open and close the remaining part of the installation opening 500, or, the whole of the front panel 400 is openably covered on the installation opening 500.

[0053] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 11, the edges of the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 are bent towards each other to form water-blocking flanges 210, and the front panel 400 is connected to the outer sides of the water-blocking flanges 210. It can be understood that the front panel 400, the top cover 200, the chassis 100, the rear panel, and the two side panels 300 jointly enclose an installation cavity, and the installation opening 500 is formed on the front cavity wall of the installation cavity. The installation cavity is used to accommodate the functional components of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Here, relative to the installation cavity, the front panel 400 is connected to the outer sides of the water-blocking flanges 210. While the water-blocking flanges 210 ensure the connection stability between the upper and lower edges of the front panel 400 and the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 respectively, they also enable the front panel 400 to freely open and close the installation opening 500, thereby avoiding obstacles to the disassembly and assembly of the front panel 400 by the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, and improving the operational convenience for users to repair the air conditioner outdoor unit after disassembling and assembling the front panel 400. Specifically, the side panels 300 can also be bent and extended with flanges at the edges of the installation opening 500 for the front panel 400 to be connected, so that all sides of the front panel 400 are located outside the top cover 200, the chassis 100, and the side panels 300, or when a certain side edge is rotatably connected to a certain side edge of the installation opening 500, the other side edges of the front panel 400 are located outside the installation opening 500, thereby ensuring the operational convenience for disassembling and assembling the front panel 400. Of course, in other embodiments, without interfering with the disassembly and assembly of the front panel 400, some edges of the front panel 400 can also be located inside the flanges at the edges of the installation opening 500 of the top cover 200, the chassis 100, and the side panels 300.

[0054] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 11 , the upper edge or the lower edge or both the upper and lower edges of the front panel 400 are connected to the water-blocking flanges 210 by means of screw fastening. That is to say, corresponding to the connection method between the front panel 400 and the water-blocking flanges 210, at least one edge of the front panel 400 is connected to the corresponding water-blocking flanges 210 by means of screw fastening. Specifically, in this embodiment, both the upper and lower edges of the front panel 400 are connected to the corresponding water-blocking flanges 210 by means of screw fastening, which not only ensures the connection stability between the front panel 400 and the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, but also realizes the operational convenience for disassembling and assembling the front panel 400 at the installation opening 500. Without loss of generality, for the front panel 400 divided into a first plate body 420 and a second plate body 410 as described below, both the upper and lower edges of the two are respectively connected to the water-blocking flanges 210 by means of screw fastening. Among them, screw holes 910 are provided on both the water-blocking flanges 210 and the upper and lower edges of the front panel 400, and the screws are inserted through the opposite screw holes 910 to achieve screw connection. Of course, in other embodiments, the upper and lower edges of the front panel 400 can also be detachably connected to the water-blocking edge by means of snap connection, plug connection, or latch.

[0055] In one embodiment, please refer toFigure 3 and Figure 11 , the water retaining flange 210 of the top cover 200 is concave inward to form an installation step 220, and the upper edge of the front panel 400 is adapted to be connected to the installation step 220. It should be noted that the inside and outside referred to herein are based on the installation cavity, and the installation step 220 is characterized by: the water retaining flange 210 is farther away from the bending part between it and the top cover 200 than the bending part between it and the top cover 200 is closer to the inside of the installation cavity. The upper edge of the front panel 400 is abutted against the concave part of the water retaining flange 210. Here, after the upper edge of the front panel 400 abuts against the concave part of the water retaining flange 210, the air conditioner outdoor unit is smoothly arranged on one side of the front panel 400, improving the connection stability and compactness of the front panel 400 and the top cover 200, thereby preventing external moisture from penetrating into the air conditioner outdoor unit through the connection between the top cover 200 and the front panel 400 as much as possible, and avoiding damage to the air conditioner outdoor unit. Of course, in other embodiments, the water retaining flange 210 of the top cover 200 may also be bent downward and extend in a flat plate, and the upper edge of the front panel 400 is connected to the outer side of the water retaining flange 210 .

[0056] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 The front panel 400 includes a first plate body 420 and a second plate body 410 which are separately arranged. The air conditioner outdoor unit also includes a partition plate 800 located between the two side panels 300. A compressor cavity 700 and a fan cavity 600 are respectively formed on opposite sides of the partition plate 800. The first plate body 420 can be opened and closed to cover the fan cavity 600, and the second plate body 410 can be opened and closed to cover the compressor cavity 700. It should be noted that a compressor and an electrical control box 710 are provided in the compressor cavity 700, and a fan is provided in the fan cavity 600. Both the fan and the compressor are electrically connected to the electrical control box 710. The second plate 410 is independently covered on the compressor cavity 700, and the first plate 420 is independently covered on the fan cavity 600. In this way, maintenance personnel can choose to maintain one of the fan cavity 600 and the compressor cavity 700 according to needs without having to disassemble the plate corresponding to the other, thereby reducing the maintenance difficulty of maintenance personnel and avoiding interference with parts that do not require maintenance. Of course, the air-conditioning casing can also be maintained as a whole by opening and closing the first plate 420 and the second plate 410. Specifically, in this embodiment, the electric control box 710 in the press chamber 700 needs to be maintained more frequently, and the volume of the press chamber 700 is smaller than the volume of the fan chamber 600, so that the area of ​​the second plate body 410 is smaller than the area of ​​the first plate body 420. In this way, the smaller second plate body 410 is frequently disassembled and assembled to maintain the electric control box 710, which reduces the maintenance difficulty of the maintenance personnel. Of course, in other embodiments, the front panel 400 can also be configured as a whole plate that is opened and closed to cover the installation port 500.

[0057] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 6, the second plate body 410 is detachably covered on the press cavity 700. It can be understood that when it is necessary to maintain the electric control box 710 or the compressor in the press cavity 700, the second plate body 410 is removed. After the maintenance is completed, the second plate body 410 is reinstalled at the installation opening 500 to cover the press cavity 700. In this way, the second plate body 410 is detachably covered on the press cavity 700, which ensures the stability of the second plate body 410 covering the press cavity 700 and also improves the operation convenience for maintenance personnel to maintain the electric control box 710 in the press cavity 700. In other embodiments, the second plate body 410 can also be rotatably connected to the side plate 300, and the remaining sides are detachably connected to the top cover 200, the chassis 100, and the first plate body 420. Or, the second plate body 410 is slidably connected at its installation opening 500.

[0058] Further, in this embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 6 , the adjacent sides of the second plate body 410 and the first plate body 420 are snap-connected. In this way, after the first plate body 420 covers the fan cavity 600 and the second plate body 410 also covers the fan cavity 600, the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 are snap-connected to ensure the connection stability of the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410, thereby improving the stability of the front panel 400 at the installation opening 500. Moreover, the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 are connected by snap connection, and it is easy to separately remove the first plate body 420 or the second plate body 410 to realize the maintenance of the fan 610 and the fan or the compressor and the electric control box 710, improving the operation convenience of the maintenance. Specifically, in this embodiment, in terms of the disassembly and assembly sequence, the first plate body 420 is installed first and then disassembled. That is, for installation, after the first plate body 420 is installed and fixed, the second plate body 410 is then snap-connected to the first plate body 420. For disassembly, after the second plate body 410 releases the snap connection with the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 is removed, the first plate body 420 is then opened to the fan cavity 600 to correspond to the higher maintenance frequency of the electric control box 710, improving the maintenance convenience for maintenance personnel. Of course, in other embodiments, the second plate body 410 can also be screwed to the first plate body 420.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 5, a plurality of clamping protrusions 411 are distributed on the side of the second plate body 410 relative to the first plate body 420, and a plurality of clamping openings 421 are distributed on the side of the first plate body 420 relative to the second plate body 410. The plurality of clamping protrusions 411 and the plurality of clamping openings 421 are correspondingly clamped with each other. It can be understood that after the plurality of clamping protrusions 411 are clamped in the corresponding clamping openings 421, between the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 are stably clamped everywhere. At the same time, the cooperation between the plurality of clamping protrusions 411 and the plurality of clamping openings 421 provides a positioning reference for the installation of the second plate body 410, improving the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the second plate body 410. Of course, in other embodiments, when ensuring that the second plate body 410 is stably clamped with the first plate body 420 in the direction of opening and closing the press cavity 700, a groove extending in the distribution direction of the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 may also be provided on the side of the first plate body 420 facing the second plate body 410. Similarly, the second plate body 410 is provided with a clamping edge on the side close to the first plate body 420. The clamping edge is clamped in the groove, and then disassembled and assembled by sliding in the distribution direction of the top cover 200 and the chassis 100.

[0060] Further, in this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figures 2 to 5, the clamping protrusion 411 extends outward parallel to the second plate body 410 and is inclined upward. The lower corner of the clamping protrusion 411 is provided with a first guiding bevel edge 412 to guide the upward installation or downward disassembly of the second plate body 410. It should be noted that the bayonet 421 extends in the vertical direction, and its extension length is less than the length of the clamping protrusion 411 in the vertical direction. Taking the extension direction of the clamping protrusion 411 as a reference, the width of the clamping protrusion 411 is less than the extension length of the bayonet 421 in the vertical direction. Thus, when installing the second plate body 410, the end of the clamping protrusion 411 needs to be first snapped into the corresponding bayonet 421, and then the second plate body 410 is lifted upward as a whole. After the screw holes 910 at the upper and lower edges of the second plate body 410 are axially opposite to the screw holes 910 of the water retaining flange 210, the second plate body 410 is screwed and fixed by means of screw locking. At this time, the clamping protrusion 411 has an extending part higher than the upper edge of the bayonet 421, realizing stable clamping of the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 in the distribution direction of the second plate body 410 and the first plate body 420. At the same time, in the direction of the second plate body 410 opening and closing the press cavity 700, the clamping protrusion 411 is adapted to abut against the bayonet 421, thereby ensuring the clamping stability of the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410. Similarly, when it is necessary to remove the second plate body 410, first, the connection relationship between the second plate body 410 and the chassis 100, the top cover 200, and the side plate 300 is released. Then, the second plate body 410 slides downward under the action of gravity and the operation of the maintenance personnel. During this process, the first guiding bevel edge 412 guides the clamping protrusion 411 out of the bayonet 421, thereby releasing the clamping relationship between the second plate body 410 and the first plate body 420, improving the convenience of the disassembly operation. Specifically, in this embodiment, the plane where the clamping protrusion 411 is located is arranged in parallel with the planes where the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 are located. Or, the second plate body 410 is clamped inward to the partition plate 800 or the flanging at the edge of the first plate body 420. In other embodiments, the first guiding bevel edge 412 can be arranged at the upper corner of the clamping protrusion 411 to guide the downward installation or upward disassembly of the second plate body 410.

[0061] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 5, a locking flange 413 is provided at the edge of the second plate body 410 away from the first plate body 420. The locking flange 413 presses against the corresponding side plate 300, and the upper and lower ends of the locking flange 413 are respectively screwed to the top cover 200 and the chassis 100. It can be understood that the locking flange 413 bends and extends towards the corresponding side plate 300 and covers and presses against the outer side of the corresponding side plate 300. In this way, the acting direction of the clamping of the clamping protrusion 411 and the clamping opening 421 is opposite to the acting direction of the locking flange 413 and the side plate 300, so as to ensure the stability of the second plate body 410 in the horizontal direction. Combining with the screwing relationship between the second plate body 410 and the water retaining flange 210, it can ensure that the second plate body 410 is stably covered on the press cavity 700. Specifically, the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 also bend and extend towards each other at the edges corresponding to the side plate 300. The upper and lower ends of the locking flange 413 are connected to the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 by screwing, so that the locking flange 413 can be connected to the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, thereby improving the connection stability between the second plate body 410, the top cover 200, the chassis 100 and the side plate 300.

[0062] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , the side of the first plate body 420 close to the second plate body 410 is screwed to the partition plate 800. It can be understood that after the first plate body 420 is covered on the fan cavity 600, the edge of the first plate body 420 close to the second plate body 410 is screwed to the partition plate 800, and the second plate body 410 is clamped to the first plate body 420 to form a supporting effect at the splicing part of the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 through the partition plate 800, so as to ensure the connection stability of the front panel 400 at the installation opening 500. Specifically, a connection step is formed on the side of the first plate body 420 close to the second plate body 410, and the side of the second plate body 410 close to the first plate body 420 is adaptively clamped to the connection step. The connection step has a flange that is closer to the inside than the second plate body 410, and the flange is connected to the partition plate 800 by screwing. At the partition plate 800, from the inside to the outside are: the partition plate 800, the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410, so as to meet the requirement of frequent disassembly and assembly of the second plate body 410 and facilitate the maintenance of the electric control box 710. Of course, in other embodiments, it can also be that the side edge of the second plate body 410 close to the first plate body 420 is screwed to the partition plate 800, or at least one of the adjacent sides of the second plate body 410 or the first plate body 420 is connected to the partition plate 800 by clamping, plugging or screwing, etc. The first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 can also be screwed, clamped or plugged.

[0063] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 , Figures 8 to 11, the first plate body 420 is detachably covered on the fan cavity 600. It can be understood that when it is necessary to maintain the fan or the fan 610 in the fan cavity 600, the fan cavity 600 is opened and closed by installing and removing the first plate body 420, so as to complete the maintenance operation and ensure the convenience of maintaining the fan or the fan 610.

[0064] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 , Figures 8 to 11 , the side of the first plate body 420 away from the second plate body 410 is movably inserted into the corresponding side plate 300, and the other edges of the first plate body 420 are respectively detachably connected to the top cover 200, the chassis 100 and the second plate body 410. It can be understood that during the process of removing the first plate body 420, first, the screwing connection relationship between the upper and lower edges of the first plate body 420 and the water baffle flange 210 is released, and then the connection relationship between the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 is released. After that, after rotating a certain angle around the connection between the first plate body 420 and the side plate 300, the first plate body 420 is pulled out of the side plate 300, so as to remove the first plate body 420. When it is necessary to install the first plate body 420, first, the first plate body 420 is inserted into the corresponding side plate 300, and then rotated by a certain angle so that the screw holes 910 at the upper and lower edges of the first plate body 420 are aligned with the screw holes 910 of the water baffle flange 210. Then, the upper and lower parts of the first plate body 420 are locked to the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 respectively. Finally, the side of the first plate body 420 close to the second plate body 410 is connected to the partition plate 800, so as to realize that the first plate body 420 is stably covered on the fan cavity 600. It should be noted that the side of the first plate body 420 away from the second plate body 410 is movably inserted into the corresponding side plate 300, which is manifested as: there is a certain gap in the circumferential direction at the connection between the first plate body 420 and the side plate 300, so that the first plate body 420 can rotate a certain angle around the side plate 300 while being stably inserted into the side plate 300, providing an operating space for removing the heavier or larger first plate body 420 and improving the operation convenience of maintenance.

[0065] Specifically, in this embodiment, please refer to Figures 8 to 11, a plurality of insertion protrusions 423 are distributed on the side of the first plate body 420 away from the second plate body 410, and a plurality of sockets 310 are distributed on the corresponding side plates 300. The plurality of insertion protrusions 423 and the plurality of sockets 310 are inserted into each other in a one-to-one correspondence. It can be understood that after the plurality of insertion protrusions 423 are clamped in the corresponding sockets 310, between the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, the first plate body 420 and the side plates 300 are stably clamped everywhere. At the same time, the cooperation between the plurality of insertion protrusions 423 and the plurality of sockets 310 provides a positioning reference for the installation of the first plate body 420, improving the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the first plate body 420. Of course, in other embodiments, on the premise of ensuring that the first plate body 420 is stably clamped with the side plates 300 in the direction of opening and closing the fan cavity 600, a groove extending in the distribution direction of the top cover 200 and the chassis 100 may also be provided on the side of the side plate 300 facing the first plate body 420. Similarly, the first plate body 420 is provided with a clamping edge on the side close to the side plate 300, and the clamping edge is clamped in the groove, and then disassembled and assembled by sliding in the distribution direction of the top cover 200 and the chassis 100.

[0066] Further, in this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figures 8 to 11The plug-in protrusion 423 is bent and extended relative to the first plate body 420 toward the corresponding side plate 300, and is tilted downward. The upper corner of the plug-in protrusion 423 is provided with a second guide bevel 424 to guide the first plate body 420 to be installed or disassembled downward. It should be noted that the socket 310 extends in the vertical direction, and its extension length is less than the length of the plug-in protrusion 423 in the vertical direction. Taking the extension direction of the plug-in protrusion 423 as a reference, the width of the plug-in protrusion 423 is less than the extension length of the socket 310 in the vertical direction. In this way, when installing the first plate body 420, it is necessary to first insert the end of the plug-in protrusion 423 into the corresponding socket 310, and then place the first plate body 420 downward as a whole, and rotate the first plate body 420 inward around the side plate 300 appropriately, so that the screw holes 910 at the upper and lower edges of the first plate body 420 are aligned with the water retaining flange. After the screw holes 910 of 210 are aligned, the first plate body 420 is screwed and fixed by means of screw locking. At this time, the plug-in protrusion 423 has an extending portion lower than the lower edge of the socket 310, so that the first plate body 420 and the side plate 300 are stably clamped in the distribution direction of the side plate 300 and the first plate body 420. At the same time, in the direction of the first plate body 420 opening and closing the fan cavity 600, there is a certain gap between the plug-in protrusion 423 and the socket 310 in the horizontal circumferential direction, thereby ensuring that the first plate body 420 can rotate around the side plate 300 at a certain angle to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the first plate body 420. Similarly, when the first plate 420 needs to be removed, the connection between the first plate 420 and the chassis 100, the top cover 200 and the side plate 300 is first released, and then the first plate 420 is appropriately rotated outward around the side plate 300, wherein the plug-in protrusion 423 remains stable relative to the socket 310 in the vertical direction to stably rotate the first plate 420, providing an operating space for removing the first plate 420, and then the first plate 420 slides upward under the operation of the maintenance personnel. During this process, the second guide bevel 424 guides the plug-in protrusion 423 to escape from the socket 310, thereby releasing the plug-in relationship between the side plate 300 and the first plate 420, and improving the convenience of the disassembly operation. Specifically, in this embodiment, the plane where the plug-in protrusion 423 is located is set at an angle with the plane where the first plate 420 is located, and is set in parallel with the plane where the side plate 300 is located, or the first plate 420 is plugged inwardly into the side plate 300. Of course, in other embodiments, the second guiding bevel 424 may also be disposed at the upper corner of the plug-in protrusion 423 to guide the second plate 410 to be installed upward or removed downward.

[0067] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 7, the first plate body 420 is rotatably covered on the fan cavity 600. It can be understood that when it is necessary to maintain the fan or the fan 610 in the fan cavity 600, the connection relationship of the sides of the first plate body 420 except for the connecting side plate 300 is released, and then it rotates around the rotating shaft 422 of the first plate body 420 and the side plate 300 to open and close the fan cavity 600, so as to complete the maintenance operation and ensure the convenience of maintaining the fan or the fan 610.

[0068] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 7 , the side of the first plate body 420 away from the second plate body 410 is rotatably connected to the corresponding side plate 300, and the other edges of the first plate body 420 are respectively detachably connected to the top cover 200, the chassis 100 and the second plate body 410. It can be understood that during the process of opening the fan cavity 600, first, the screwing connection relationship between the upper and lower edges of the first plate body 420 and the water baffle flange 210 is released, then the connection relationship between the first plate body 420 and the second plate body 410 is released, and then it rotates around the rotating shaft 422 between the first plate body 420 and the side plate 300 to open the fan cavity 600 for maintaining the fan 610 and the fan. When it is necessary to close the fan cavity 600, first, the first plate body 420 is rotated by a certain angle so that the screw holes 910 at the upper and lower edges of the first plate body 420 are aligned with the screw holes 910 of the water baffle flange 210, then the upper and lower parts of the first plate body 420 are respectively locked with the top cover 200 and the chassis 100, and finally the side of the first plate body 420 close to the second plate body 410 is connected to the partition plate 800 to realize that the first plate body 420 is stably covered on the fan cavity 600.
