[0038] To better understand the above technical solutions, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below through the drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific features in the embodiments of the present application are a detailed description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, rather than a limitation of the technical solutions of the present application. Without conflict, the technical features in the embodiments of the present application and the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0039] Currently, multiple labels need to be pasted on the indoor unit of the air conditioner. The labels are printed by the printing supplier and provided to the general assembly line of the indoor unit of the air conditioner in a roll or sheet form. After manual processing, they are pasted on the housing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. Due to the large variety of labels, it leads to greater management in various aspects such as planning, procurement, inventory, and distribution, and the procurement cost is relatively high. Moreover, the manual workload required for label pasting is large, resulting in increased labor costs. And the manual pasting efficiency is low, and the pasting labor intensity is high. Long-term high-frequency repetitive pasting operations are likely to cause fatigue to the operators, and the quality of manual pasting is low. Problems such as label blistering, skewing, warping, and mispasting are likely to occur, resulting in an increase in the rework rate. During the use of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, refrigeration and heating will affect the temperature at the label pasting location, resulting in a decrease in the viscosity of the label, and the label warps or even falls off from the housing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. Therefore, the present application proposes an air conditioner housing 100 to solve the above problems.

[0040] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, according to the first aspect of the embodiments of the present application, an air conditioner housing 100 is provided, including: a housing body 110, where a printing area is provided on the housing body 110; and an identifier 120, which is printed on the printing area by means of printing.

[0041] It can be understood that the air conditioner housing 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application is provided with a housing body 110 and an identifier 120. Among them, the housing body 110 is used to place air conditioner parts such as heat exchangers and fans. And the housing body 110 is provided with a printing area, and the identifier 120 can be printed on the printing area by means of printing. There is no need to paste labels, thereby reducing the cost of producing labels. The process of pasting labels is reduced, which can reduce labor costs and improve production efficiency. By printing the identifier 120, the automation degree of the identifier 120 process is improved, and through automatic positioning, the accuracy of the identifier 120 printing position is ensured, avoiding the skew of the identifier 120 pasting and improving the pasting quality of the identifier 120. And the type of the identifier 120 to be pasted and the printing position in the printing area can be automatically selected, avoiding errors in manual selection and improving reliability. Printing the identifier 120 can clearly and durably display the identifier 120 information, avoiding problems such as the label pasted on the housing body 110 warping or even falling off, and improving stability.

[0042] It can be understood that the identifier 120 can be printed on the printing area by means of inkjet printing. The color of the ink can be selected according to the color of the printed identifier 120, so that the pattern of the printed identifier 120 is delicate and the color is rich. And the ink layer of the ink has strong adhesion, avoiding phenomena such as warping and falling off like the pasted label. And during the refrigeration or heating operation of the air conditioner, the ink layer will not undergo thermal expansion and contraction, color change, foaming and other phenomena, ensuring the appearance effect and display performance of the identifier 120.

[0043] In some examples, the identifier 120 includes one or more of a body nameplate identifier 120, a warning identifier 120, a fire prevention identifier 120, a barcode identifier 120, and a serial number identifier 120.

[0044] It can be understood that there can be multiple types of the identifier 120 to facilitate the display of the identifier 120 information in multiple aspects. Specifically, the identifier 120 can be a single piece of information, that is, the identifier 120 can be a body nameplate identifier to display information such as manufacturer trademark recognition, brand differentiation, and product parameter memorization; the identifier 120 can be a warning identifier 0 to display the usage warning prompt of the air conditioner; the identifier 120 can be a fire prevention identifier to prompt users to pay attention to safety during use and avoid fires; the identifier 120 can be a barcode identifier for scanning the barcode to read product information; the identifier 120 can be a serial number identifier to facilitate the tracing of the serial number information of the product; the identifier 120 can be an energy efficiency identifier to display the energy efficiency level information of the product. Or the identifier 120 can be multiple of the body nameplate identifier, warning identifier, fire prevention identifier, barcode identifier, and serial number identifier. According to the sizes and display contents of the multiple identifiers 120, they are integrated and arranged to avoid the overly scattered distribution of the multiple identifiers 120, making it more design-sense, improving the aesthetics of the product, and enhancing the user experience.

[0045] In some examples, the above-mentioned housing body 110 includes: a panel 111; and side plates 112 disposed on the sides of the above-mentioned panel 111; wherein, the above-mentioned printing area is formed on the above-mentioned side plates 112.

[0046] It can be understood that the housing body 110 can be provided with a panel 111 and side plates 112. Among them, the panel 111 is used to face the user. The panel 111 serves as the main appearance surface of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, can display the operating information of the air conditioner, and the panel 111 can be designed in a shape to improve the overall aesthetics of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. There are two side plates 112, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the panel 111. A printing area is formed on the side plates 112, and the identifier 120 is printed in the printing area to display the identifier 120 information.

[0047] Exemplarily, the housing body 110 can also be provided with a back plate, the back plate is disposed on the opposite side of the panel 111, and both side plates 112 are connected to the back plate. An air inlet can be provided at the top of the housing body 110, and an air outlet can be provided at the bottom, and the air inlet and the air outlet are connected.

[0048] In some examples, the above-mentioned side plates 112 include a first side plate 112 and a second side plate 112. The above-mentioned first side plate 112 is located on one side of the above-mentioned panel 111, the above-mentioned second side plate 112 is located on the other side of the above-mentioned panel 111, and the above-mentioned printing area is formed on the above-mentioned first side plate 112 and / or the above-mentioned second side plate 112.

[0049] It can be understood that there may be two side plates 112, namely a first side plate 112 and a second side plate 112 respectively. Among them, the first side plate 112 is connected to one side of the panel 111, and the second side plate 112 is connected to the other side of the panel 111. Since the area of the side plate 112 is fixed and the printing area of each side plate 112 is limited, it is necessary to reasonably design and integrate the content of the logo 120 so that all the printed logos 120 fall within the printing area, ensuring the display effect of the logo 120 and the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner housing 100. Specifically, when the overall area of the logo 120 is larger than the area of a single printing area, it is necessary to set printing areas on both the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 112, and design and integrate the content and layout of the logo 120 printed in the printing areas of the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 112. When the overall area of the logo 120 is less than or equal to the area of a single printing area, it is necessary to select to set a printing area on the first side plate 112 or the second side plate 112 according to the design situation, and reasonably arrange the printed logo 120 to improve the neatness of the logo 120 display.

[0050] Exemplarily, along the direction from the panel 111 to the back plate, the size of the printing area is 70 mm, which ensures that the printing area has sufficient printing area while ensuring the overall display effect of the side plate 112 and improving the aesthetic degree.

[0051] In some examples, the flatness of the above-mentioned printing area is from -2.5 mm to 1 mm.

[0052] It can be understood that the logo 120 is printed on the printing area and will completely fit the housing body 110 at the printing area. The printing area of the side plate is designed to be a plane, but during the processing, due to the influence of the injection molding process and packaging logistics, there may be phenomena of concave or convex deformation, resulting in deformation in the printing area and forming a concave or convex micro-arc surface. When the micro-arc surface concaves by more than -2.5 mm, the content of the logo printed in the printing area will be unclear; when the micro-arc surface bulges by more than 1 mm, it may cause interference between the bulging part and the printing equipment, and the printing device may be damaged due to collision. Therefore, the flatness of the printing area of the side plate 112 is controlled within the range of -2.5 mm to 1 mm, ensuring that the content of the printed logo 120 in the printing area is clearly displayed, improving the visual effect, ensuring the smooth progress of the printing operation, avoiding collisions, and improving reliability.

[0053] In some examples, a through hole 1121 is provided between the above-mentioned printing area of the above-mentioned side plate 112 and one end of the above-mentioned side plate 112 away from the above-mentioned panel 111, and the above-mentioned through hole 1121 is used for inserting a pipeline.

[0054] It can be understood that through holes 1121 are also provided on the side plate 112, and a fresh air pipeline can be inserted through the through holes 1121. Specifically, the through holes 1121 are provided in the area between the printing area of the side plate 112 and the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111. When the air conditioner is installed on the wall, the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111 abuts against the wall, so that the through holes 1121 are close to the wall. In this way, when installing the fresh air pipeline, the pipeline length between the side plate 112 and the wall can be reduced, which is convenient for installation and improves the overall visual effect of the air conditioner.

[0055] In some examples, the distance between the above-mentioned identifier 120 and the end of the above-mentioned side plate 112 away from the above-mentioned front panel 111 is greater than 40 mm.

[0056] It can be understood that since the through holes 1121 are provided in the area between the printing area of the side plate 112 and the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111, in order to avoid interference between the through holes 1121 and the printed identifier 120, the distance between the printed identifier 120 and the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111 needs to be greater than 40 mm. In this way, the identifier 120 completely avoids the position of the through holes 1121, ensuring the integrity of the display of the identifier 120.

[0057] It can be understood that the side plate 112 can be provided with a shape to improve the overall beauty of the air conditioner. Affected by the shape, the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111 can be a complete straight line; or it can be a discontinuous straight line with partial gaps; or it can be the installation line of the side plate 112 and the installation wall after the indoor unit of the air conditioner is installed. However, from the projection direction from the air inlet to the air outlet of the air conditioner housing 100, the distance between the printed identifier 120 and the end of the side plate 112 away from the front panel 111 is greater than 40 mm to ensure the integrity of the display of the identifier 120.

[0058] In some examples, the line width of the lines of the above-mentioned identifier 120 is 0.2 mm to 5 mm; and / or the character height of the above-mentioned identifier 120 is 1 mm to 20 mm; and / or the character spacing of the above-mentioned identifier 120 is 0.2 mm to 2 mm.

[0059] It can be understood that the line width dimension of the line printing the identifier 120 can be set to 0.2 mm to 5 mm. Among them, the line width dimension of the line needs to be set to be greater than or equal to 0.2 mm to ensure that the lines of the identifier 120 are clearly displayed and the content of the identifier 120 is completely displayed, and less than 5 mm to ensure the display aesthetics. Exemplarily, the line width of the barcode of the identifier 120 is 0.3 mm, ensuring that the barcode can be accurately scanned to obtain the information corresponding to the barcode. The character height of the identifier 120 can be set to 1 mm to 20 mm. Among them, the character height of the identifier 120 needs to be greater than or equal to 1.5 mm. To ensure that the characters in the identifier 120 are clearly and completely displayed, so as to facilitate reading the information of the identifier 120 displayed by the characters of the identifier 120, and the height of the characters needs to be less than or equal to 20 mm to ensure the display aesthetics. Exemplarily, the character height of the warning identifier is 2 mm, ensuring that the warning information can be clearly read to standardize the operation of the air conditioner and improve safety. The spacing between the characters of the identifier 120 can be set to 0.2 mm to 2 mm. Among them, the spacing between the characters needs to be greater than or equal to 0.3 mm. To avoid overlapping between the characters in the identifier 120, ensure that the characters in the identifier 120 are clearly and completely displayed, so as to facilitate reading the information of the identifier 120 displayed by the characters of the identifier 120. And the spacing between the characters is less than or equal to 2 mm to ensure the display aesthetics. Exemplarily, the spacing between the characters in the body nameplate identifier is 0.4 mm to ensure that the body nameplate information can be clearly read.
