[0035] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an electrical appliance box body 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, asFigure 1 as shown and with reference to Figures 2 to 5 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides an electrical appliance box body 100. The electrical appliance box body 100 includes a box body 10 and a partition board 20. The box body 10 has an opening 11, and a wire routing space is formed inside the box body 10. The partition board 20 is movably connected to the box body 10, and the partition board 20 can be switched between a first position and a second position. The partition board is configured such that when the partition board 20 is located at the first position, the wire routing space is divided into a first wire routing space 12 and a second wire routing space 13 along a first direction, and the second wire routing space 13 is away from the opening 11; wherein, the first direction is perpendicular to the plane where the opening 11 of the box body 10 is located, the second wire routing space 13 is away from the opening 11 of the box body 10, the first wire routing space 12 is close to the opening 11 of the box body 10 and is communicated with the opening 11 of the box body 10. When the partition board 20 is located at the second position, the opening 11, the first wire routing space 12 and the second wire routing space of the box body 10 are communicated as a whole.
[0036] Specifically, the opening 11 of the box body 10 can be located on any side of the box body 10. That is to say, the box body 10 can have an opening 11 on the upper side, or an opening 11 on the lower side, left side, right side, rear side or front side.
[0037] When the electrical appliance box body 100 of this embodiment is in use, first switch the partition board 20 from the first position to the second position to communicate the opening 11, the first wire routing space 12 and the second wire routing space 13 of the box body 10 together, and then one of the strong wires 72 and the weak wires 71 can be installed in the first wire routing space 12; then switch the partition board 20 from the second position to the first position and install the other wire in the second wire routing space 13. In this way, the installation of the strong wires 72 and the weak wires 71 is completed, and the above installation process is simple and easy to operate.
[0038] In this embodiment, by providing the movable partition board 20, the installation of the strong wires 72 and the weak wires 71 can be completed quickly; the box body 10 can also have two layers of wiring spaces, so that the strong wires 72 and the weak wires 71 can be connected to different wiring spaces. Under the isolation of the partition board 20, the signal interference of the strong wires 72 on the weak wires 71 can be reduced, thereby improving the stability of signal transmission. Further, when the electrical appliance box body 100 is used for an air conditioner, the control stability of the air conditioner can be improved. In addition, the electrical appliance box body 100 also has the beneficial effects of being easy to manufacture and assemble and having a low production cost.

[0041] In some alternative embodiments of the present utility model, the partition plate 20 is rotatably connected to the box body 10 through a hinge structure, so as to realize the movable connection of the partition plate 20 to the box body 10. The hinge structure connection method in this embodiment has the advantages of being easy to manufacture and assemble, having a small installation volume and low production cost.
[0042] Furthermore, the axis of the hinge structure is perpendicular to the first direction. That is to say, the axis of the hinge structure extends along the second direction. Further, the first direction can be the height direction of the box body 10, and the second direction can be the width direction or the length direction of the box body 10, so that the partition plate can divide the wiring space into upper and lower layers.
