[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 - 4, the present utility model provides an air conditioner casing 100, which includes a frame 10, a fan partition 20 and a water receiving tray 30. The interior of the frame 10 has a hollow, and both ends of the frame 10 along the first direction respectively have a first air outlet 11 and a second air outlet 12. Both the first air outlet 11 and the second air outlet 12 are communicated with the hollow. The fan partition 20 is installed in the hollow, and the outer side wall of the fan partition 20 is connected to the inner wall of the frame 10. The water receiving tray 30 is installed in the hollow and is connected to one side surface of the fan partition 20 along the first direction. Among them, at least one reinforcing rib 21 is provided on the fan partition 20, and the reinforcing rib 21 protrudes along the first direction. In this way, the first air outlet 11 and the second air outlet 12 are used for air flow. The outer wall of the fan partition 20 is connected to the inner wall of the frame 10 to achieve the function of wind blocking. The water receiving tray 30 is used to carry the condensed water dripping during the operation of the fan and can support the fan to fix the fan. And the reinforcing rib 21 protrudes on the fan partition 20, making the torsional resistance of the fan partition 20 stronger, and it is not easy to deform and break during long-term use.
[0031] In an embodiment, the air conditioner casing 100 further includes a fan (not shown in the figure). The fan is installed in the frame 10 and is located on the side of the fan partition 20 away from the first air outlet 11.
[0032] It should be explained that, please refer to Figure 1 , in this embodiment, the first direction refers to the axial (i.e., length) direction of the frame 10, the second direction refers to the transverse direction perpendicular to the first direction (in this embodiment, it is the width direction of the frame 10 and the fan partition 20), and the third direction refers to the vertical direction when the frame 10 is placed as Figure 1 shown, that is, the thickness direction of the frame 10 and the width direction of the fan partition 20.
[0033] Furthermore, the fan partition 20 is recessed towards the first air outlet 11 to form the reinforcing rib 21. In this way, the reinforcing rib 21 is formed by the fan partition 20 itself (for example, directly formed through a stamping process), and the processing technology is simple and the cost is low.
[0034] In other embodiments, the reinforcing rib 21 can also be additionally provided. For example, a rib is provided, and then it is connected to the fan partition 20 through an adhesive or welding process, which can also play a role in strengthening the fan partition 20.
[0035] A ventilation opening 22 is formed in the middle of the fan partition plate 20. The ventilation opening 22 communicates with the first air outlet 11 and the second air outlet 12. Two reinforcing ribs 21 are provided on the fan partition plate 20, and the two reinforcing ribs 21 are respectively arranged on both sides of the ventilation opening 22 in the second direction. In this way, the two reinforcing ribs 21 further improve the structural strength of the fan partition plate 20, and being respectively arranged on both sides of the ventilation opening 22 can provide a targeted strengthening effect on the areas on both sides of the ventilation opening 22, reducing the influence of the formation of the ventilation opening 22 on the structural strength of the partition plate.
[0036] It should be noted that the middle part of the fan partition plate 20 means that the position where the ventilation opening 22 is formed is located at a position tending to the middle in the length direction (i.e., the second direction) of the fan partition plate 20, and the distances from the two sides of the fan partition plate 20 in the second direction are the same.
[0037] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of the reinforcing ribs 21 can be further increased according to working requirements, and multiple reinforcing ribs 21 can all extend along the width direction of the fan partition plate 20 and be evenly arranged at intervals along the length direction of the fan partition plate 20, so as to provide a balanced structural strengthening effect.
[0038] Furthermore, the reinforcing rib 21 extends along the third direction, and the length of the reinforcing rib 21 in the third direction is at least 1 / 2 of the length of the fan partition plate 20 in the third direction, that is, the reinforcing rib 21 extends at least more than half of the distance in the width direction of the fan partition plate 20. In this way, it is ensured that the supporting effect that each reinforcing rib 21 can provide is strong enough.
[0039] Both sides of the fan partition plate 20 in the second direction are bent along the length direction of the frame 10 to form a first flanging 23 and a second flanging 24, and the first flanging 23 and the second flanging 24 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the frame 10. Both sides of the fan partition plate 20 in the third direction are bent along the length direction of the frame 10 to form a third flanging 25 and a fourth flanging 26, and the third flanging 25 and the fourth flanging 26 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the frame 10. The first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, the third flanging 25 and the fourth flanging 26 increase the connection area between the fan partition plate 20 and the frame 10, thereby improving the connection strength between the fan partition plate 20 and the frame 10.
[0040] Preferably, the first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, the third flanging 25 and the fourth flanging 26 all extend towards the direction of the first air outlet 11. Since the fan is arranged on the side of the fan partition plate 20 close to the second air outlet 12, the fact that the first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, the third flanging 25 and the fourth flanging 26 are bent towards the first air outlet 11 can prevent the four from affecting the arrangement of internal components such as the fan and prevent interference.
[0041] Further, the frame 10 has a top plate 13 and a bottom plate 14. The fourth flanging 26 is connected to the bottom plate 14. The fourth flanging 26 includes a connecting section 261 and a sealing section 262. The connecting section 261 is connected to the bottom plate 14, and the sealing section 262 is inclined towards the bottom plate 14. Since the connection between the connecting section 261 and the bottom plate 14 means that the connecting section 261 is parallel to and abuts against the bottom plate 14, the sealing section 262 is inclined towards the bottom plate 14, and an interference fit is formed between the sealing section 262 and the bottom plate 14, making their abutment closer and the sealing effect stronger.
[0042] Specifically, the angle between the sealing section 262 and the connecting section 261 is an obtuse angle to avoid difficult assembly due to too small an angle between the sealing section 262 and the connecting section 261, and it is difficult for the sealing section 262 to form an interference seal with the bottom plate 14.
[0043] Both ends in the length direction of the third flanging 25 are respectively connected to one end on the same side of the first flanging 23 and the second flanging 24, and both ends in the length direction of the fourth flanging 26 are respectively connected to the other end on the same side of the first flanging 23 and the second flanging 24. In this way, the first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, the third flanging 25, and the fourth flanging 26 can support each other and provide torsional resistance support effects for each other, making the structural strength of each flanging higher.
[0044] Along the first direction, the lengths of the first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, and the fourth flanging 26 are all greater than the length of the third flanging 25. The sealing section 262 protrudes from the first flanging 23 and the second flanging 24 in the first direction to avoid affecting the formation of the above-mentioned flangings and ensure the length of the connecting section 261 in the first direction, thereby increasing the connection area between the fourth flanging 26 and the bottom plate 14.
[0045] The water receiving tray 30 is installed inside the hollow and connected to the frame 10. The inner wall of the frame 10 connected to the water receiving tray 30 is the bottom wall; a clamping structure 27 is constructed on the side of the fan partition 20 close to the bottom wall. The clamping structure 27 includes a first plate 271 and a second plate 272. The first plate 271 bends and extends towards the direction of the first air outlet 11, and the second plate 272 is connected to the side of the first plate 271 close to the first air outlet 11 and extends towards the bottom wall. The first plate 271 and the second plate 272 cooperate to form a clamping space. The water receiving tray 30 is located on the side of the fan partition 20 away from the first air outlet 11 and extends into the clamping space and abuts against the first plate 271 and the second plate 272. In this way, the first plate 271 abuts against the upper end surface of the water receiving tray 30 (i.e., the end of the water receiving tray 30 close to the top plate 13), the second plate 272 abuts against the side of the water receiving tray 30 close to the fan partition 20, and at the same time, the lower bottom surface of the water receiving tray 30 is installed on the frame 10. Therefore, the water receiving tray 30 is limited in multiple directions, ensuring the stability of its installation position. There is no need to additionally provide structures such as clamping plates connected to the fan partition 20, reducing costs and simplifying the structure.
[0046] Each structure on the fan partition plate 20, including the first flanging 23, the second flanging 24, the third flanging 25, the fourth flanging 26, and the clamping structure 27, is formed by bending the fan partition plate 20. The above-mentioned structures are formed by bending multiple sides of the originally flat fan partition plate 20, without the need to additionally add through processes such as welding. Therefore, the fan partition plate 20 provided by the present utility model is simple to form and has low cost.
[0047] The fan is preferably installed in the water receiving tray 30 and communicated with the ventilation opening 22 on the fan partition plate 20 to drive the gas flow between the first air outlet 11 and the second air outlet 12.
[0048] The present utility model also provides an air conditioner indoor unit, including the air conditioner housing 100 as described above.
[0049] Compared with the prior art, by providing the reinforcing rib 21 on the fan partition plate 20, the present utility model makes the structural strength of the fan partition plate 20 higher. Multiple flangings are provided around the fan partition plate 20 to improve the connection strength between the fan partition plate 20 and the frame 10. A clamping structure 27 is formed by bending at the bottom of the fan partition plate 20 to be clamped with the water receiving tray 30, thereby eliminating the clamping plate structure for connecting the fan partition plate 20 and the water receiving tray 30 in the conventional solution, reducing costs and the processing difficulty of the fan partition plate 20.
[0050] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.
[0051] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation to the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
