For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.

[0040] Refer to Figures 1-7As shown in the figure, in an embodiment of the present utility model, a wind net is provided, which includes a wind net body 11 and a heating structure 12. The wind net body 11 further includes an installation part 112 and a grille part 111. Among them, the installation part 112 is used for installing the cooling fan in the outdoor unit. The shape of the installation part 112 can be set to a circle or a rectangle, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present utility model. The grille part 111 is arranged on the outer periphery of the installation part 112 and is connected to the installation part 112. Mesh holes for gas to enter and exit are formed on the grille part 111. For the purpose of protecting the heating structure 12, a first clamping groove 1113 cooperating with the heating structure 12 is provided on the grille part 111, and the heating structure 12 is placed in the first clamping groove 1113 and is clamped with the grille part 111.

[0041] The above-mentioned wind net is provided with a heating structure 12 on the wind net body 11, which can effectively reduce the possibility of frosting and icing on the wind net in environments such as low external temperature and rainy and snowy weather. Moreover, the heating structure 12 is clamped and fixed on the wind net body 11, which is beneficial to the relative stability between the heating structure 12 and the wind net body 11, and also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the heating structure 12, so that the heating structure 12 can be replaced in time when it is damaged. The heating structure is arranged on the grille part 111, which is beneficial to heating the grille part 111 and reducing the influence on the motor of the cooling fan located on the installation part 112.

[0042] Specifically, the clamping limit of the first clamping groove 1113 on the heating structure 12 can be achieved by reasonably defining the size of the first clamping groove 1113. For example, the width of the first clamping groove 1113 is slightly smaller than the width of the heating structure 12, so that the heating structure 12 and the first clamping groove 1113 are in interference fit. Or as Figure 6 shown, a first clamping block 11133 is arranged in the first clamping groove 1113. The width of the first clamping groove 1113 is greater than the width of the heating structure 12. At least two first clamping blocks 11133 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first clamping groove 1113 along the width direction. The heating structure 12 can be placed in the first clamping groove 1113 and clamped between the two first clamping blocks 11133, so as to realize the clamping and fixing with the wind net body 11. Using the first clamping block 11133 to fix the heating structure 12 can reduce the fixing difficulty of the heating structure 12.

[0043] Based on the setting of the first clamping groove 1113, referring to Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the wind net further includes a cover plate 13. The cover plate 13 seals the notch of the first clamping groove 1113 to further protect the heating structure 12. The cover plate 13 is detachably connected to the wind net body 11 by means including but not limited to bolt connection and clamping.

[0044] Referring to Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the air duct body 11 includes a first clamping structure, and the cover plate 13 includes a second clamping structure. The cover plate 13 is clamped and cooperated with the air duct body 11 through the mutually cooperating first clamping structure and second clamping structure. The clamping method is not only convenient for disassembly and assembly, but also does not require the use of additional fixing parts, reducing the risk that may be caused by the loosening of the fixing parts.

[0045] In one embodiment, the first clamping structure includes at least two second clamping blocks 11134, and the second clamping structure includes a second clamping groove 133. The two second clamping blocks 11134 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the notch of the first clamping groove 1113. A guiding surface for guiding the cover plate 13 is arranged on the second clamping block 11134, and the second clamping groove 133 is arranged on the top surface of the cover plate 13. Specifically, the cover plate 13 includes a cover plate body 131 and a limiting plate 132. A plurality of limiting plates 132 are fixedly arranged at intervals along the circumference on the side of the cover plate body 131 facing away from the first clamping groove 1113. Limiting grooves are respectively opened on opposite sides of the limiting plate 132 along the width direction of the first clamping groove 1113. When the cover plate body 131 seals the notch of the first clamping groove 1113, it at least partially seals one end opening of the limiting groove facing the first clamping groove 1113 to cooperate with the limiting groove to form the second clamping groove 133, and the second clamping block 11134 is clamped in the limiting groove, that is, the second clamping groove 133.

[0046] In another embodiment, the first clamping structure includes a second clamping groove 133 opened on the groove wall of the first clamping groove 1113, and the second clamping structure includes a second clamping block 11134 arranged on the cover plate 13.

[0047] It should be emphasized that the width of the limiting plate 132 is greater than the width of the first clamping groove 1113 to prevent the cover plate 13 from moving into the first clamping groove 1113. Further, the cover plate 13 abuts against the first clamping block 11133. In addition to playing a role in limiting and fixing the heating structure 12, the first clamping block 11133 can also be used to support the cover plate 13 to limit the cover plate 13 from moving into the first clamping groove 1113, further improving the stability of the cover plate 13 relative to the first clamping groove 1113 and avoiding the extrusion of the heating structure 12 by the cover plate 13 or the noise generated by the shaking of the cover plate 13 due to the air flow. Moreover, the second clamping groove 133 is formed by the cooperation of the cover plate body 131 and the limiting plate 132. Compared with being directly opened on the cover plate body 131, it can reduce the weight of the cover plate 13 and is not easy to increase the load of the air duct.

[0048] In one embodiment, the heating structure 12 is an electric heating structure. The heating body of the heating structure 12 includes an annular electric heating tape or electric heating wire. The electric heating wire or electric heating tape is light in weight and generally small in diameter, which neither easily increases the load of the air net 10 nor easily affects the effective air outlet area of the air net 10. To connect to an external power supply, the heating structure further includes a cable. Both the electric heating tape and the electric heating wire are connected to the external power supply through the cable.

[0049] In another embodiment, the heating structure 12 heats the air net body through heat exchange with a heat-conducting medium. At this time, the heating body of the heating structure 12 includes a heating pipe arranged in a ring shape. A heat-conducting medium can flow in the heating pipe, and the heat-conducting medium can provide heat to the air net body 11. For example, the heating pipe can be connected to the outlet of the compressor and the inlet of the outdoor heat exchanger in the air conditioner, using the compressor as the supply device for the heat-conducting medium, so that there is no need to additionally set a supply device for the heat-conducting medium.

[0050] Whether it is an electric heating structure or a heating structure that realizes heating through heat exchange with a heat-conducting medium, it needs to be connected to an external device (the electric heating tape needs to be connected to the power supply, and the heating pipe needs to be connected to the supply device for the heat-conducting medium). Therefore, the heating structure further includes heating connection parts arranged at both ends of the heating body (if the heating structure 12 is an electric heating structure, the heating connection part is a cable; if the heating body includes a heating pipe, the heating connection part is a connecting pipe). In order to lead out the heating structure 12 from the air net body 11 and form a protection, the first card slot 1113 includes a main slot part 11131 and an extending slot part 11132. The main slot part 11131 is arranged in a ring shape. The first end of the extending slot part 11132 is communicated with the main slot part 11131, and the second end extends to the outer edge of the air net body 11.

[0051] Taking the heating body including an electric heating tape as an example, the electric heating tape is arranged around the main slot part 11131, and the cable connected to the electric heating tape is led out from the extending slot part 11132 to the area where the air net body 11 is located. It can be understood that in order to minimize the influence of the extending slot part 11132 on the effective air outlet area of the air net body 11, the extending slot part 11132 is arranged in a straight line and extends along the radial direction of the grille part 111.

[0052] In one embodiment, the air net further includes a temperature sensor 14. The temperature sensor 14 is used to sense the external environment temperature where the air net 10 is located, so as to be able to start the heating structure 12 when it is necessary to heat the air net body 11, reducing energy consumption.

[0053] The temperature sensor 14 also needs to be connected to the electronic control module of the air conditioner through a cable. When the temperature sensor 14 monitors that the external environment temperature where the air duct 10 is located is less than the preset temperature, the electronic control module controls the heating structure 12 to start or be connected, and then heats the air duct body 11. The preset temperature can be determined according to the local climate environment including air humidity, and is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0054] Based on the setting of the extension groove portion 11132, as shown in Figure 3 the cable connecting the temperature sensor 14 and the electronic control module extends out of the air duct body 11 from the extension groove portion 11132, and a probe hole 113 for the sensing end of the temperature sensor 14 to extend out is arranged inside the first card slot 1113 corresponding to the position of the temperature sensor 14. The sensing end of the temperature sensor 14 extends out of the first card slot 1113 from the probe hole 113, so as to more directly monitor the temperature of the external environment where the air duct is located.

[0055] In one embodiment, the main body groove portion 11131 is located in the middle of the grille portion 111 in the radial direction, that is, the position of the heating main body on the air duct body 11 can meet the requirement of uniformly heating the grille portion 111.

[0056] In one embodiment, the grille portion 111 includes a plurality of annular frame bars 1111 sleeved in sequence from inside to outside at intervals and spokes 1112 connecting the plurality of annular frame bars 1111. The plurality of spokes 1112 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the annular frame bars 1111. The spokes 1112 and the annular frame bars 1111 cooperate with each other to form mesh holes for gas to enter and exit. The main body groove portion 11131 is arranged between two adjacent annular frame bars 1111.

[0057] The setting of the spokes 1112 is to ensure the structural strength of the air duct body 11. Therefore, there are requirements for the distance between two adjacent spokes 1112 arranged along the circumferential direction. Since the spokes 1112 are arranged in a radial pattern along the circumferential direction of the installation portion 112, the distance between two adjacent spokes 1112 becomes larger and larger. Obviously, this requirement is based on the connection strength of the annular frame bar 1111 located on the relatively outer side of the air duct body 11. While meeting the structural strength of the air duct body 11, reducing the number or total length of the spokes 1112 can increase the effective air outlet area of the air duct body 11 under the condition that the area of the air duct body 11 remains unchanged. As shown in Figure 1As shown, there are two sets of spokes 1112. One set is located on the side of the main body groove portion 11131 close to the mounting portion 112 and is arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the mounting portion 112, and the other set is located on the side of the main body groove portion 11131 far from the mounting portion 112 and is arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the mounting portion 112. Among the set of spokes 1112 located outside the main body groove portion 11131, the central angle corresponding to two adjacent spokes 1112 is smaller than the central angle corresponding to two adjacent spokes 1112 in the set of spokes 1112 located inside the main body groove portion 11131. Thus, on the basis of meeting the connection strength of the plurality of annular frame bars 1111 located outside the main body groove portion 11131, the number of spokes 1112 required to connect the plurality of annular frame bars 1111 located inside the main body groove portion 11131 can be reduced, and then the effective air outlet area of the air net body 11 can be increased.

[0058] In other embodiments, the grille portion 111 can also be arranged in a mesh shape or other annular structures with mesh holes, which will not be elaborated here.

[0059] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, a panel is further provided. The panel includes a panel body 20 and the air net 10 in any of the above embodiments. An installation opening 21 is formed on the panel body 20, and the air net 10 is detachably arranged at the installation opening 21 of the panel body 20 by means including but not limited to snap connection and bolt connection.

[0060] In one embodiment, in order to reduce the disassembly and assembly difficulty of the air net 10 and improve safety at the same time, the panel body 20 includes a third snap connection structure, and the air net body 11 includes a fourth snap connection structure. The air net body 11 is snap-connected to the panel body 20 through the mutually cooperating third snap connection structure and fourth snap connection structure. Specifically, the third snap connection structure includes a snap hole 23, and the fourth snap connection structure includes a third snap block 114 arranged on the outer edge of the air net body 11. A plurality of snap holes 23 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the panel body 20. The snap hole 23 includes an insertion portion and a snap connection portion. The width of the insertion portion along the circumferential extension direction of the installation opening 21 is greater than the width of the snap connection portion. A plurality of third snap blocks 114 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the air net 10 corresponding to the snap holes 23.

[0061] When assembling the air net 10 and the panel body 20, first insert the third snap block 114 into the insertion portion, and then rotate the air net 10 to snap the third snap block 114 into the snap connection portion, realizing the snap connection cooperation between the air net 10 and the panel body 20. In order to prevent the air net 10 from rotating relative to the panel body 20, at least one installation hole is formed on the outer edge of the air net 10, and a threaded hole is correspondingly formed on the panel body 20. The relative rotation between the air net 10 and the panel body 20 is restricted by a bolt passing through the installation hole and the threaded hole.

[0062] In the above embodiments, the connection between the air duct network 10 and the panel body 20 adopts a combination of bolt connection and snap connection, which not only reduces the assembly difficulty but also ensures the connection stability between the air duct network 10 and the panel body 20.

[0063] In addition, a wire outlet hole 22 is formed in the panel, and the cables used to connect the electric heating tape and the temperature sensor 14 pass through the wire outlet hole 22 and are connected to the electric control module of the air conditioner. Specifically, in order to better pass the cable through the wire outlet hole 22, the second end of the extension groove portion 11132 faces a third snap block 114, and the wire outlet hole 22 communicates with one of the card holes 23. The third snap block 114 not only plays a role in snap connection with the card hole 23, but also helps to change the direction of the cable, reducing the difficulty of passing the cable through the wire outlet hole 22.

[0064] An embodiment of the present invention further provides an outdoor unit, which includes an outdoor heat exchanger, side plates, and the panel in any of the above embodiments. The panel cooperates with a plurality of side plates to enclose a containing space, and the outdoor heat exchanger is located in the containing space.

[0065] It should be noted that based on the setting of the first card slot 1113, when the panel is installed at the air outlet position of the outdoor unit, the slot opening of the first card slot 1113 faces the outdoor heat exchanger to improve the aesthetics of the outdoor unit.

[0066] Since the outdoor unit includes the air duct network 10 in the above embodiments, it has all the beneficial effects of the air duct network 10, and will not be described in detail here.

[0067] In the specific content of the above specific implementation manners, the technical features can be combined arbitrarily without contradiction. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the above technical features are described. However, as long as the combinations of these technical features do not conflict, they should all be considered as within the scope described in this specification.

[0068] The specific content of the above specific implementation manners only expresses several implementation manners of the present utility model. Its description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present utility model. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several deformations 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 patent of the present utility model should be subject to the appended claims.
