[0045] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below.

[0046] Below, reference is made to Figures 1-11 Describe the outdoor unit 100 of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0047] Referring to Figures 1-4 As shown, the outdoor unit 100 of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a housing 10, a partition 20, a compressor 30, a fan 40, and an electrical box 50.

[0048] The partition 20 is disposed inside the housing 10. The partition 20 divides the internal space of the housing 10 into a compressor chamber 21 and a fan chamber 22. The setting of the partition 20 can reduce the noise of the compressor 30 from spreading to the external environment, so that the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner can be more silent during operation. Moreover, by isolating the compressor 30 and the fan 40 through the partition 20, it is possible to prevent heat interference between the compressor 30 and the fan 40, and it is also possible to ensure their respective working efficiencies, thereby improving the overall performance of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0049] The compressor 30 is disposed in the compressor chamber 21. The compression chamber can provide an independent installation space for the compressor 30, which can protect the compressor 30 and prevent damage to the compressor 30 by external factors such as dust, sand, and rain.

[0050] The fan 40 is disposed in the fan chamber 22. The fan chamber 22 can provide an independent installation space for the fan 40, prevent dust from entering the fan chamber 22, and also prevent damage to the fan 40 by sand.

[0051] The electrical box 50 is disposed in the compressor chamber 21. The electrical box 50 provides a connection interface between the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and the power supply. Through the electrical box 50, the power cord can be connected to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner to provide the required power supply. In addition, there will be connection interfaces for control cables inside the electrical box 50 for transmitting control signals, such as temperature sensors, pressure sensors, etc., so as to realize the control and monitoring of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0052] Moreover, the electrical box 50 is located above the compressor 30. In this way, it is possible to better protect the electrical box 50 from the influence of the external environment, such as rain and dust. This can improve the reliability and durability of the electrical box 50 and also reduce the risk of failures caused by external environmental factors.

[0053] Moreover, the electrical box 50 is located above the compressor 30, so that maintenance personnel can directly access the electrical box 50 for daily inspection, repair, or replacement of required components without the need to move or disassemble other equipment.

[0054] In addition, the housing 10 includes a front panel 11 formed with an air outlet 12 facing the front and back of the blower 40. The blower 40 can send out the hot air that has completed heat exchange with the outdoor heat exchanger inside the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner through the air outlet 12, thereby improving the air outlet efficiency of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0055] A flanging 110 bent backward is formed at the top of the front panel 11, which can ensure that there is no gap on the front surface of the front panel 11. Further, a mesh cover 60 is provided at the air outlet 12 to prevent sand and stones from entering the air outlet 12, thereby protecting the air outlet 12.

[0056] Furthermore, the housing 10 further includes a mesh cover 60 integrally formed with the front panel 11. The integrally formed design can improve the overall strength and stability of the mesh cover 60 and the front panel 11, make it more durable and not easily deformed. Moreover, the integrally formed design of the mesh cover 60 and the front panel 11 can reduce the vibration and noise during the operation of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, thereby improving the user experience.

[0057] Moreover, the integrally formed design of the mesh cover 60 and the front panel 11 can reduce the number of components and the difficulty of maintenance and cleaning, thereby improving the maintainability of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0058] In addition, a top cover 70 is provided above the compressor 30 and the blower 40. The top cover 70 is used to cover the tops of the compressor 30 and the blower 40, and the top cover 70 can shield the compressor 30 and the blower 40, thereby playing a role in protecting the compressor 30 and the blower 40.

[0059] To make there be no screws between the top cover 70 and the front surface of the front panel 11, the flanging 110 at the top of the front panel 11 is bent backward, so that a mating gap 71 is formed between the top cover 70 and the flanging 110 of the front panel 11.

[0060] Since there is a gap between the top cover 70 and the front surface of the front panel 11 in the traditional outdoor unit of the air conditioner, friction will occur between the top cover 70 and the front surface of the front panel 11, resulting in the generation of noise.

[0061] Therefore, the mating gap 71 formed between the top cover 70 and the flanging 110 is provided at the top of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, which can avoid the generation of a gap between the top cover 70 and the front surface of the front panel 11 and prevent vibration and noise on the front surface of the front panel 11.

[0062] Among them, the top cover 70 includes: a cover body 73, and the cover body 73 is used to shield the top of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, which can protect the components and circuits of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0063] The top cover 70 further includes: a water guide groove 80, and the water guide groove 80 is connected to the flanging 110, so that the transition between the water guide groove 80 and the flanging 110 can be smoother, thereby facilitating the rainwater in the mating gap 71 to fall.

[0064] In addition, the water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 are integrally formed, which can improve the stability and sealing performance of the top cover 70, reduce the risk of water leakage, and also protect the components and circuit boards inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0065] Moreover, the water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 are integrally formed, which can make cleaning and maintenance more convenient, without the need to disassemble or install additional water guide pipes, saving time and labor costs.

[0066] The water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 are integrally formed, which can also effectively collect the water droplets in the mating gap 71, prevent the water droplets from dripping onto other devices around the air conditioner outdoor unit 100, and avoid damage or safety hazards caused by the water droplets.

[0067] The water guide groove 80 is located below the mating gap 71. Thus, when it rains, the rainwater will accurately fall into the water guide groove 80 along the mating gap 71, and the water guide groove 80 extends from the compressor chamber 21 to the fan chamber 22, so as to guide the liquid flowing from the mating gap 71 to the fan chamber 22.

[0068] Moreover, the setting of the water guide groove 80 can prevent the control board, wiring harness and other circuits in the electrical box 50 from being short-circuited, thereby protecting the internal circuit of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0069] Therefore, the front surface of the front panel 11 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 can be seamless and screwless, thus avoiding vibration and noise on the front surface of the front panel 11. In addition, the water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 are integrally formed, which can improve the stability and sealing performance of the top cover 70, reduce the risk of water leakage, effectively collect the water falling from the mating gap 71, and avoid short-circuiting of the electrical box 50 and other circuit control boards, thereby protecting the internal circuit of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 6 shown, the water guide groove 80 has a first end 81 in its length direction, and the first end 81 of the water guide groove 80 is located in the compressor chamber 21. Among them, the first end 81 of the water guide groove 80 can collect the water falling from the mating gap 71 above the compressor 30.

[0071] Furthermore, the water guide groove 80 further has a second end 82. The second end 82 of the water guide groove 80 is located in the fan chamber 22. The first end 81 of the water guide groove 80 is higher than the second end 82 of the water guide groove 80. The second end 82 of the water guide groove 80 can collect the falling water generated by the mating gap 71 above the fan 40.

[0072] The wall surface of the bottom of the first end 81 of the water guide groove 80 is higher than the wall surface of the bottom of the second end 82 of the water guide groove 80. In this way, the wall surface of the bottom of the water guide groove 80 forms an inclined surface, which can accelerate the flow rate of the water from the first end 81 to the second end 82 of the water guide groove 80, thereby avoiding the accumulation of rainwater.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the water guide groove 80 includes: a connecting plate 83. The connecting plate 83 is connected to the cover body 73. The connecting plate 83 is bent downward relative to the cover body 73. In this way, the distance between the connecting plate 83 and the cover body 73 can be reduced, thereby improving the connection strength between the connecting plate 83 and the cover body 73.

[0074] In addition, the water guide groove 80 further includes: a water guide plate 84. The water guide plate 84 is connected to the connecting plate 83. A water baffle 85 is connected to the water guide plate 84. In this way, the connecting plate 83, the water guide plate 84 and the water baffle 85 together enclose a U-shaped groove, thereby facilitating the collection of rainwater at the mating gap 71.

[0075] The water guide groove 80 further includes: a water baffle 85. The water baffle 85 and the connecting plate 83 are located on opposite sides of the water guide plate 84. This can play a role in blocking water and also prevent rainwater from splashing during the process of falling onto the water guide groove 80.

[0076] Furthermore, the water guide plate 84 constitutes the bottom of the water guide groove 80, and the water baffle 85 and the connecting plate 83 respectively constitute the side walls of the water guide groove 80. Among them, the first end 81 of the water guide plate 84 is higher than the second end 82 of the water guide plate 84. The water guide plate 84 is inclined, which can facilitate rapid drainage, thereby avoiding the accumulation of rainwater.

[0077] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 6 and Figure 10 shown, the water guide plate 84 is configured as an inclined flat plate. In this way, the inclined flat plate-shaped water guide plate 84 can more effectively guide the water flow to flow along the specified direction. When the water flow encounters the inclined surface, it will be pushed, which helps the water flow to flow along the surface of the water guide plate 84, thereby reducing the dispersion and splashing of the water flow and also improving the water guiding efficiency.

[0078] Moreover, the surface of the inclined flat water guide plate 84 is relatively flat, making it more convenient to clean. When water flows along the inclined surface, it can carry away dirt and debris, thereby reducing the deposition of dirt on the water guide plate 84 and also reducing the cleaning difficulty and frequency.

[0079] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 6 shown, the included angle between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is α, and α satisfies the relational expression: 2° ≤ α ≤ 10°.

[0080] Among them, the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is not less than the first parameter value. If the included angle between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is less than the first parameter value, it will affect the formation of an inclined slope by the water guide plate 84, resulting in the accumulation of rainwater at the water guide plate 84. Therefore, the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane cannot be less than the first parameter value.

[0081] The value of the first parameter can be from 1° to 2°. Preferably, the value of the first parameter can be 2°. When the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is 2°, a slope is just formed between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane, which can reduce the resistance of rainwater and thus accelerate the drainage speed of rainwater.

[0082] The value range of the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is from 2° to 4°. Preferably, if the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is 2°, the inclination angle of the water guide plate 84 relative to the horizontal plane is relatively large, and the drainage effect is more obvious, thus avoiding rainwater in the water guide groove 80 from falling into the compressor cavity 21.

[0083] In addition, the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is not greater than the second parameter value. If the included angle between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is greater than the second parameter value, the water flow speed will increase when rainwater flows through the water guide plate 84. This increased water flow speed will cause the rainwater to have a large kinetic energy when flowing through the water guide plate, resulting in the splashing of rainwater. In addition, too large an included angle will also cause the water flow to separate and form vortices, further increasing the possibility of splashing. Therefore, the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane cannot be greater than the second parameter value.

[0084] The value of the second parameter can be from 10° to 15°. Preferably, the value of the first parameter can be 10°. When the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is 10°, the rainwater dripping on the water guide plate is about to splash due to the too large flow rate.

[0085] The value range of the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is from 5° to 10°. Preferably, when the included angle α between the water guide plate 84 and the horizontal plane is 5°, not only can the splashing of water droplets at the water guide plate 84 be avoided, but also the drainage effect can be more obvious.

[0086] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 10 as shown, the height of the water baffle 85 is h1, and the height of the connecting plate 83 is h2. h1 and h2 satisfy the relationship: 3mm < h1 < h2.

[0087] Among them, when the overflow of the water guide groove 80 is not occurred, the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is less than the height h2 of the connecting plate 83, so that the space can be reasonably utilized, which can not only prevent the waste of materials, but also facilitate heat dissipation.

[0088] Among them, the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is greater than the third parameter value. If the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is less than or equal to the second parameter value, it will cause the water to easily overflow at the water baffle 85, resulting in rainwater falling into the interior of the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, causing a short circuit in the internal circuit. Therefore, the height h1 of the water baffle 85 cannot be less than or equal to the third parameter value.

[0089] The third parameter value can be 2mm - 3mm. Preferably, the third parameter value can be 3mm. When the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is 3mm, the water baffle 85 can just block the rainwater and prevent the rainwater from overflowing.

[0090] The value range of the height h1 of the water baffle 85 can be from 3mm to 5mm. Preferably, when the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is 5mm, the water baffle 85 has a larger depth, which can prevent the rainwater from overflowing or splashing, thereby improving the waterproof effect inside the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0091] In addition, the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is less than the height h2 of the connecting plate 83. If the height h1 of the water baffle 85 is greater than or equal to the height h2 of the connecting plate 83, it will waste materials. Since the electrical box 50 is arranged close to the water guide groove 80, the water baffle 85 will also form an obstruction, which is not conducive to the heat dissipation of the electrical box 50, and will also cause interference between the water baffle 85 and the electrical box 50. Therefore, the height h1 of the water baffle 85 cannot be greater than or equal to the height h2 of the connecting plate 83.

[0092] The height h1 of the water baffle 85 is less than the height h2 of the connecting plate 83, so that the height of the water baffle 85 can be smaller, which can not only save materials and reduce costs, but also avoid the excessive height of the water baffle 85. In this way, the air flow space at the water baffle 85 can be increased, the obstruction to the air can be reduced, and thus the electrical box 50 can dissipate heat better.

[0093] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, such as Figure 10As shown, the flanging 110 includes: a first flanging 111, the first flanging 111 is connected to the top of the panel 11, and the first flanging 111 is bent backward, so that the front surface of the panel 11 is an integral body. In this way, a seamless design of the front surface of the panel 11 can be achieved, and the use of screws can also be avoided, thereby reducing the vibration and noise generation on the front surface of the panel 11.

[0094] The flanging 110 further includes: a second flanging 112, the second flanging 112 is connected to the first flanging 111, and the second flanging 112 is bent downward, which can play a role in guiding water, and can also make the connection between the first flanging 111 and the second flanging 112 play a transitional role, so that rainwater can be easily guided along the second flanging 112 to the water guide groove 80, thereby avoiding rainwater flowing to other areas inside the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0095] In addition, the second flanging 112 is attached to the connecting plate 83. In this way, the connection strength between the second flanging 112 and the connecting plate 83 can be improved, and a large amount of rainwater can also be avoided from entering, thereby playing a waterproof role.

[0096] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 6 shown, a clearance space is formed between the top of the partition plate 20 and the first flanging 111. The setting of the clearance space can facilitate the installation and fixation of the partition plate 20.

[0097] The water guide groove 80 is located in the clearance space 93, so that interference between the water guide groove 80 and other components can be avoided. The water guide groove 80 overlaps the top of the partition plate 20, and the partition plate 20 can provide a supporting effect for the water guide groove 80, thereby preventing the water guide groove 80 from deforming.

[0098] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the water guide groove 80 has a first end 81 in its length direction, and the first end 81 of the water guide groove 80 is located in the compressor chamber 21, which can facilitate the water guide groove 80 to collect and convey the rainwater above the compressor chamber 21.

[0099] The water guide groove 80 further has a second end 82 in its length direction, and the second end 82 of the water guide groove 80 is located in the blower chamber 22. In this way, it can facilitate the water guide groove 80 to convey the rainwater from the compressor chamber 21 to the blower chamber 22, thereby avoiding the short circuit of the circuit inside the compressor chamber 21.

[0100] In addition, as Figure 8 shown, the electrical box 50 has a third end 91 in its length direction, and the third end 91 of the electrical box 50 is located in the compressor chamber 21. The electrical box 50 further has a fourth end 92 in its length direction, and the fourth end 92 of the electrical box 50 is located in the blower chamber 22.

[0112] In addition, a flange 110 that bends backward is formed at the top of the front panel 11, which can ensure that there are no gaps on the front surface of the front panel 11. The water guide groove 80 is connected to the flange 110, and the water guide groove 80 is located below the mating gap 71. Thus, when it rains, the rainwater will fall into the water guide groove 80 along the mating gap 71. The water guide groove 80 extends from the compressor chamber 21 to the blower chamber 22, so that the liquid left from the mating gap 71 can be guided to the blower chamber 22.

[0113] The housing 10 further includes: a top cover 70, the top cover 70 is arranged above the compressor 30 and the blower 40, and a mating gap 71 is formed between the top cover 70 and the flange 110. Among them, the top cover 70 includes: a cover body 73, and the cover body 73 is used to shield the top of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100 and can protect the components and circuits of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0114] The top cover 70 further includes: a water guide groove 80, and the water guide groove 80 is connected to the flange 110, which can make the transition between the water guide groove 80 and the flange 110 smoother, so that the rainwater in the mating gap 71 can fall more easily.

[0115] In addition, the water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 are integrally formed, which can improve the stability and sealing performance of the top cover 70, reduce the risk of water leakage, and also protect the components and circuit boards inside the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0116] Moreover, the integral forming design of the water guide groove 80 and the cover body 73 makes cleaning and maintenance more convenient, without the need to disassemble or install additional water guide pipes, saving time and labor costs.

[0117] Moreover, the setting of the water guide groove 80 can prevent the electrical box 50 and other circuits from short-circuiting, thereby protecting the internal circuit of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.
