[0050] Figure 1 is a schematic front view of a cover plate installation structure according to an embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1 shown, and with reference to Figures 2 to 10 , the embodiment of the present utility model provides a cover plate installation structure for an air conditioner. The cover plate installation structure includes a cover plate 100 and an installation frame 300.

[0051] The cover plate 100 includes a cover plate body 110, a first connection structure 210 and a second connection structure 220. The cover plate body 110 has a first side 111 and a second side 112 that are arranged opposite to each other. The first connection structure 210 is fixedly arranged on the first side 111, and the first connection structure 210 includes a first baffle 211 and an elastic buckle 212. The first baffle 211 extends from the first side 111 to a side away from the second side 112. The front end of the elastic buckle 212 is vertically fixedly connected to the first baffle 211, and a first clamping block 213 protruding toward a side away from the first side 111 is provided on the elastic buckle 212. The first clamping block 213 is arranged at intervals on the rear side of the first baffle 211. The second connection structure 220 is fixedly arranged on the second side 112, and the second connection structure 220 includes an opening groove 224 that opens in a direction away from the first side 111.

[0052] The mounting frame 300 includes a first protrusion 311 and a second protrusion 312 which are relatively protruding and spaced apart. The first protrusion 311 is clamped between the first baffle 211 and the first clamping block 213. The second protrusion 312 is inserted into the opening groove 224.

[0053] The directional words such as "front" and "rear" are only used to clearly describe the relative position of the specific structure. For example, the cover plate 100 can be arranged vertically or horizontally. For example, the cover plate 100 is arranged vertically.

[0054] In this embodiment, when installing the cover plate 100 on the mounting frame 300, the opening groove 224 is first buckled on the second protrusion 312, that is, the second protrusion 312 is inserted into the opening groove 224, so that the second protrusion 312 has a limiting effect on the cover plate 100. Then, the cover plate 100 is rotated around the front edge of the second protrusion 312, so that the cover plate 100 is covered on the mounting frame 300 from the front side, and the first clamping block 213 and the first baffle 211 are clamped on the first protrusion 311.

[0055] Only one end of the elastic clip 212 is fixedly connected to the first baffle 211, and the other end is a movable end. During the process of moving the cover plate 100, the first clamping block 213 at the movable end of the elastic clip 212 is squeezed by the first protrusion 311, thereby causing the first clamping block 213 to move, so as to avoid interference between the first clamping block 213 and the first protrusion 311 during the movement of the cover plate 100, or even causing the cover plate 100 to be unable to move.

[0056] When the cover plate 100 is mounted on the mounting frame 300, the opening slot 224 is clamped to the second protrusion 312, and the second protrusion 312 limits the opening slot 224 to limit the movement of the cover plate 100. The first baffle 211 and the first clamping block 213 are clamped on the front and rear sides of the first protrusion 311, and the first protrusion 311 limits the first baffle 211 and the first clamping block 213 to limit the movement of the elastic cover plate 100. The first baffle 211 is covered on the mounting frame 300 from the front side, and the elastic buckle 212 is on the rear side of the first baffle 211 and hidden inside the housing of the air conditioner, so as to avoid the elastic buckle 212 scratching the user or interfering with the items placed outside the air conditioner, thereby improving the user experience.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the first baffle 211 extends from the front edge of the first side edge 111 toward a side away from the second side edge 112 .

[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the elastic buckle 212 and the cover body 110 are spaced apart from each other along the extension direction of the first baffle 211 to form a clearance space 120 at the spaced apart position.

[0059] The elastic buckle 212 is spaced apart from the first side 111 to form a clearance space 120 at the space. When installing the cover plate 100 on the mounting frame 300, first, the opening groove 224 is buckled on the second protrusion 312, that is, the second protrusion 312 is inserted into the opening groove 224, so that the second protrusion 312 plays a limiting role on the cover plate 100. Then, the cover plate 100 is rotated around the front side edge of the second protrusion 312, so that the cover plate 100 is covered on the mounting frame 300 from the front side, and the first clamping block 213 and the first baffle 211 are clamped on the first protrusion 311.

[0060] During the process of moving the cover 100, the first block 213 at the movable end of the elastic buckle 212 is squeezed by the first protrusion 311, so that the first block 213 moves into the clearance space 120, so as to avoid interference between the first block 213 and the first protrusion 311 during the movement of the cover 100, or even cause the cover 100 to be unable to move.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the second connection structure 220 includes a second baffle 221 and a second clamping block 223. The second baffle 221 extends from the second side edge 112 toward the side away from the first side edge 111. The second clamping block 223 protrudes laterally toward the side away from the first side edge 111. The second baffle 221 is spaced apart from the second clamping block 223 along the front side to form an opening slot 224.

[0062] The rear end of the first bump 311 is connected to a first positioning plate 320 extending rearward. A first positioning groove 321 corresponding to the first latch 213 is provided on the first positioning plate 320, and the first latch 213 is inserted into the first positioning groove 321.

[0063] The rear end of the second bump 312 is connected to a second positioning plate 330 extending rearward. A second positioning groove 331 corresponding to the second latch 223 is provided on the second positioning plate 330, and the second latch 223 is inserted into the second positioning groove 331.

[0064] In this embodiment, the first positioning groove 321 and the second positioning groove 331 extend horizontally. When installing the installation cover plate 100 on the installation frame 300, first insert the second latch 223 into the second positioning groove 331 so that the second positioning groove 331 positions the second latch 223. Then rotate the cover plate 100 around the front side edge of the second bump 312, so that the first latch 213 and the first baffle 211 are latched to the first bump 311, and the first latch 213 is inserted into the first installation groove, thereby covering the cover plate 100 from the front side onto the installation frame 300.

[0065] When the cover plate 100 is installed on the installation frame 300, the first latch 213 is within the first positioning groove 321 to limit the up and down movement of the first latch 213. The second latch 223 is within the second positioning groove 331 to limit the up and down movement of the second latch 223. The first baffle 211 and the first latch 213 are latched on the front and rear sides of the first bump 311 to limit the front and rear movement of the first latch 213. The second baffle 221 and the second latch 223 are latched on the front and rear sides of the second bump 312 to limit the front and rear movement of the second latch 223. The settings of the first positioning groove 321, the second positioning groove 331, the first bump 311, and the second bump 312 limit the cover plate 100 to a unique position after being installed on the installation frame 300, improving the stability of the cover plate 100 and preventing the cover plate 100 from falling off the installation frame 300.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 4 shown, the first connection structures 210 are provided at intervals along the length direction of the first side edge 111.

[0067] The cover plate 100 further includes a plurality of first mounting plates 130. The plurality of first mounting plates 130 are fixedly connected to the first baffle 211 and extend in the same direction as the elastic buckle 212. The plurality of first mounting plates 130 and the elastic buckle 212 are arranged at intervals and alternately along the length direction of the first side edge 111.

[0068] In this embodiment, the first mounting plate 130 is fixedly connected to the first baffle 211 and is spaced apart from the elastic buckle 212 along the length direction of the first side 111. In this way, while the arrangement of the first mounting plate 130 does not interfere with the movement of the elastic buckle 212, the structural strength of the cover plate 100 is improved. When the cover plate 100 is mounted on the mounting frame 300, the surface of the first mounting plate 130 away from the cover plate 100 contacts the first positioning plate 320 to improve the connection stability between the cover plate 100 and the mounting frame 300.

[0069] Preferably, there are three elastic buckles 212 and four first mounting plates 130. The multiple first mounting plates 130 and the elastic buckles 212 are alternately arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. The cover plate 100 and the mounting frame 300 are clamped on the first convex block 311 through two first clamping blocks 213 and the first baffle 211 arranged at intervals up and down, thereby improving the connection strength between the cover plate 100 and the mounting frame 300. First mounting plates 130 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of each elastic buckle 212 to enclose both sides of the elastic buckle 212 with the first mounting plates 130, thereby reducing the situation where the rear end of the elastic buckle 212 is knocked.

[0070] Furthermore, the height of the first mounting plate 130 in the vertical direction is greater than the height of the elastic buckle 212 in the vertical direction, that is to say, the connection area between the first mounting plate 130 and the first baffle 211 is greater than the connection area between the elastic buckle 212 and the first baffle 211. Therefore, the structural strength of the first mounting plate 130 is greater than that of the elastic buckle 212.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 5 shown, the rear end of the elastic buckle 212 is not behind the rear end of the first mounting plate 130.

[0072] In this embodiment, the elastic buckle 212 extends backward to the front side of the rear end of the first mounting plate 130, or is flush with the first mounting plate 130 in the extending direction, so as to prevent the elastic buckle 212 from protruding backward and being knocked, improve the service life of the elastic buckle 212, and further improve the user experience.

[0073] Preferably, the rear end of the elastic buckle 212 is at the front side of the rear end of the first mounting plate 130. When the cover plate 100 is mounted on the mounting frame 300, due to the rearward arrangement of the first mounting plate 130, it plays a blocking role for other components, reducing the situation where the rear end of the elastic buckle 212 is knocked.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 5 shown, the distance between the first clamping block 213 and the first baffle 211 is greater than the distance between the second clamping block 223 and the second baffle 221.

[0075] In this embodiment, the closer the first clamping block 213 is to the first baffle plate 211, the greater the force required to move it into the clearance space 120, and when the first clamping block 213 moves into the clearance space 120, the greater the angle of rotation of the elastic buckle 212. The first clamping block 213 is arranged away from the first baffle plate 211, so as to reduce the bending degree of the elastic buckle 212 during the installation of the cover plate 100, reduce the situation of the elastic buckle 212 breaking due to excessive bending, and make the installation of the first clamping block 213 clamped on the rear side of the first protrusion 311 easier, thereby improving the user experience.

[0076] The second clamping block 223 forms a fixed buckle. During the process of installing the cover plate 100, the second clamping block 223 does not need to move relative to the cover plate body 110. The closer the second clamping block 223 is to the second baffle plate 221, the greater the force required to move it. The second clamping block 223 is arranged close to the second baffle plate 221 to prevent the second clamping block 223 from moving during the process of installing the cover plate 100, thereby improving the stability of the second clamping block 223.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the cover 100 further includes a second mounting plate 140, which is fixedly connected to the second baffle 221, and the second mounting plate 140 and the cover body 110 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the first baffle 211. The second clamping block 223 is fixedly connected to the side of the second mounting plate 140 away from the cover body 110.

[0078] In this embodiment, the second clamping block 223 and the second mounting plate 140 form a fixed buckle, and the second clamping block 223 is set close to the second baffle 221 to prevent the second clamping block 223 from moving during the installation of the cover plate 100, thereby improving the stability of the second clamping block 223 and the second mounting plate 140.

[0079] When the cover plate 100 is mounted on the mounting frame 300 , the surface of the second mounting plate 140 away from the cover plate 100 contacts the second positioning plate 330 to improve the connection stability between the cover plate 100 and the mounting frame 300 .

[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 400 are fixedly connected between the first mounting plate 130 and the first side edge 111 .

[0081] In this embodiment, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 400 are fixedly connected between the first mounting plate 130 and the first side edge 111, which improves the strength and structural stability of the first mounting plate 130 and also improves the strength of the cover plate 100. Moreover, the plurality of reinforcing ribs 400 are staggered with the elastic buckle 212 in the horizontal direction to avoid affecting the movement of the elastic buckle 212.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 4 shown, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 400 are fixedly connected between the second mounting plate 140 and the second side 112.

[0083] In this embodiment, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 400 are fixedly connected between the second mounting plate 140 and the second side 112, which improves the strength and structural stability of the second mounting plate 140 and avoids the movement of the second mounting plate 140 and the second clamping block 223. The arrangement of the reinforcing ribs 400 also improves the strength of the cover plate 100.

[0084] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the mounting frame 300 includes a receiving groove 350, and the opening of the receiving groove 350 faces forward.

[0085] The cover plate body 110 is located in the receiving groove 350, and the front end of the cover plate body 110 is flush with the front end of the mounting frame 300 in the front-rear direction.

[0086] In this embodiment, the receiving groove 350 is located at the front end of the first convex block 311 and the second convex block 312, so that the first convex block 311 and the second convex block 312 form the bottom of the receiving groove 350. The cover plate body 110 is embedded in the receiving groove 350, and the first baffle 211 and the second baffle 221 are lapped on the bottom of the receiving groove 350. The front end of the cover plate 100 is flush with the mounting frame 300 in the front-rear direction, so as to avoid scratching the user by the front end of the cover plate 100, improve the ornamental property of the cover plate mounting structure, and improve the user experience.

[0087] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the cover plate body 110 is a grille plate.

[0088] In this embodiment, the grille plate enables the cover plate 100 to be used for ventilation and air exchange, and at the same time, can block part of the dust and rodents and insects from passing through the cover plate 100.

[0089] Further, the grilles on the grille plate can have various different shapes and sizes, that is, there are various models of the cover plate 100. Since the cover plate 100 is clamped on the mounting frame 300, the cover plate 100 is detachably connected to the mounting frame 300, and the user can detach the cover plate 100 according to needs and replace it with other cover plates 100.

[0090] An embodiment of the present utility model provides an air conditioner. In some embodiments of the air conditioner of the present utility model, the air conditioner includes a housing and the cover plate mounting structure in any of the above embodiments, and the housing includes an air inlet. The cover plate mounting structure is connected to the housing and covers the air inlet.

[0091] In this embodiment, when installing the cover plate 100 on the installation frame 300, first buckle the opening groove 224 on the second convex block 312, that is, insert the second convex block 312 into the opening groove 224, so that the second convex block 312 plays a limiting role on the cover plate 100. Then rotate the cover plate 100 around the front side edge of the second convex block 312, so that the cover plate 100 covers the installation frame 300 from the front side, and the first clamping block 213 and the first baffle 211 are clamped to the first convex block 311.

[0092] Only one end of the elastic buckle 212 is fixedly connected to the first baffle 211, and the other end is a movable end. During the process of moving the cover plate 100, the first clamping block 213 at the movable end of the elastic buckle 212 is squeezed by the first convex block 311, so that the first clamping block 213 moves, so as to avoid interference between the first clamping block 213 and the first convex block 311 during the movement of the cover plate 100, and even cause the situation that the cover plate 100 cannot move.

[0093] When the cover plate 100 is installed on the installation frame 300, the opening groove 224 is clamped to the second convex block 312, and the second convex block 312 plays a limiting role on the opening groove 224 to limit the movement of the cover plate 100. The first baffle 211 and the first clamping block 213 are clamped on the front and rear sides of the first convex block 311, and the first convex block 311 plays a limiting role on the first baffle 211 and the first clamping block 213 to limit the movement of the elastic cover plate 100. The first baffle 211 covers the installation frame 300 from the front side, the elastic buckle 212 is located at the rear side of the first baffle 211, and is hidden inside the shell of the air conditioner, avoiding the situation that the elastic buckle 212 scratches the user or interferes with the items placed outside the air conditioner, and improving the user experience.
