Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of air conditioning engineering, and particularly relates to a backboard air conditioner with a side-embedded modular electric control box. Background Art

[0002] The backboard air conditioner of the existing server cabinet in the data center includes a door frame, a heat exchanger assembly installed in the door frame, a control board, an outer panel installed outside the door frame to enclose the door frame, and a fan assembly installed on the outer panel. Since the refrigerant inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger need to be connected to the compressor through pipelines, in order to facilitate the layout of the pipelines and the maintenance of the heat exchanger assembly and the control board, the existing backboard air conditioner is generally hinged to the server cabinet. However, due to the low load-bearing limit of the hinge, in order to prevent the hinge from deforming, generally, the proportion of the area of the heat exchanger in the backboard air conditioner is controlled to reduce the weight of the backboard air conditioner, which results in low heat exchange efficiency per unit area of the backboard air conditioner. Therefore, in the prior art, in order to improve the heat exchange efficiency per unit area of the backboard air conditioner, the backboard air conditioner is slidably installed on the server cabinet through a guide rail, and the bearing capacity is improved through the guide rail, and the area of the heat exchanger in the backboard air conditioner is increased. However, with the increase of the area of the heat exchanger, the installation space of the control board is reduced. Previously, a maintenance door could be opened at the position corresponding to the control board on the outer panel to maintain the control board. With the increase of the area of the heat exchanger, the fan assembly needs to be arranged at the position corresponding to the heat exchanger on the outer panel, resulting in insufficient space to arrange the maintenance door. When the control board needs to be maintained, the entire outer panel needs to be disassembled, resulting in a large amount of maintenance work and complex maintenance of the control board. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model provides a backboard air conditioner with a side-embedded modular electric control box for facilitating the maintenance of the control board to solve the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the utility model first proposes a backboard air conditioner with a side-embedded modular electric control box, which includes a door frame, a heat exchanger assembly installed in the door frame, an outer panel installed outside the door frame to enclose the door frame, and a fan assembly installed on the outer panel, and further includes a fixed bracket and an electric control box body. The electric control box body includes a pull-out box and a pull-out panel installed on the front panel of the pull-out box. A plurality of through holes convenient for wire threading are provided on the rear panel of the pull-out box to form a wire passing hole. A control board is fixed on the bottom plate inside the pull-out box. A pull-out area matching the size of the pull-out box is provided inside the fixed bracket. A drawer opening communicating with the pull-out area is provided on one side of the fixed bracket. The pull-out box is inserted into the pull-out area of the fixed bracket through the drawer opening, and the two side plates of the pull-out box are slidably connected with the fixed bracket.
