In the prior art, silicone is used to wrap the sensor to inhibit water from entering the sensor, and a protective sponge is used to wrap the charged component to prevent electric shock to the limbs, that is, the outdoor unit needs to additionally assemble multiple components such as silicone and protective sponge, which makes the overall assembly operation complicated, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost. The barrier 400 of the present solution is arranged in the cavity 110 of the housing 100, and a part of the barrier 400 is located between the sensor 300 and the grille opening 120, that is, the barrier 400 can prevent rainwater from splashing from the grille opening 120 to the sensor 300, and prevent limbs from passing through the grille opening 120 to touch the sensor 300, causing electric shock and damage to the sensor 300, and a part of the barrier 400 is located between the charged component 200 and the grille opening 120, that is, the barrier 400 can prevent limbs from passing through the grille opening 120 to touch the charged component 200 and cause electric shock, and can prevent rainwater from splashing from the grille opening 120 to the charged component 200 and causing hidden dangers.

[0059] Reference Figures 1 to 5, the specific relative positions of the partition member 400, the charged component 200, and the sensor 300 are introduced below. For ease of description and understanding, a projection plane is defined. The projection plane is perpendicular to the axis 121 direction of the grille opening 120. Taking the orientation in Figure 3 as a reference, the axis 121 direction of the grille opening 120 points in the front-rear direction, that is, the projection plane is perpendicular to the front-rear direction. Along the axis 121 direction of the grille opening 120, the partition member 400 forms a first orthographic projection on the projection plane. It can be understood that the first orthographic projection is the contour shape of the cross-section of the partition member 400 along the direction perpendicular to the axis 121 of the grille opening 120, and the first orthographic projection is a closed geometric figure. The charged component 200 forms a second orthographic projection on the projection plane, and the second orthographic projection is the contour shape of the cross-section of the charged component 200 along the direction perpendicular to the axis 121 of the grille opening 120, and the second orthographic projection is a closed geometric figure. The sensor 300 forms a third orthographic projection on the projection plane, and the third orthographic projection is the contour shape of the cross-section of the sensor 300 along the direction perpendicular to the axis 121 of the grille opening 120, and the third orthographic projection is a closed geometric figure.

[0060] The first orthographic projection covers the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection. In some embodiments, the first orthographic projection may completely cover the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection, that is, the area of the first orthographic projection is greater than the areas of the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection. In other embodiments, the first orthographic projection may cover part of the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection, that is, the area of the first orthographic projection may be less than or equal to the area of the second orthographic projection, and the area of the first orthographic projection may be less than or equal to the area of the third orthographic projection. Some embodiments of the present application are described by taking the first orthographic projection completely covering the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection as an example. The first orthographic projection of the present solution covers the second orthographic projection and the third orthographic projection, that is, when observed along the axis 121 direction of the grille opening 120, the partition member 400 covers the charged component 200 and the sensor 300. Therefore, the partition member 400 can not only prevent rainwater from splashing through the grille opening 120 onto the charged component 200 and the sensor 300, but also avoid the relevant personnel's limbs from touching the charged component 200 and the sensor 300 and getting an electric shock, and can reduce the number of parts of the outdoor unit 10 and simplify the assembly process of the outdoor unit 10.

[0061] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the specific setting of the charged component 200 is introduced below. The charged component 200 includes a first charged part 210, and the outdoor unit 10 includes a compressor 500. The first charged part 210 can be electrically connected to the compressor 500. Specifically, in some embodiments, the first charged part 210 may include a compressor power cord. In other embodiments, the first charged part 210 may include a compressor terminal block (i.e., Figure 4At the upper end of the middle compressor), in some embodiments of the present application, the first energized part 210 includes a compressor power cord and a compressor terminal block as an example for illustration. The applicant found that both the compressor power cord and the compressor terminal block are energized with strong electricity, and in this solution, by providing the partition member 400, it can effectively prevent the human body from passing through the grille opening 120 to touch the first energized part 210 and get an electric shock, and prevent rainwater from passing through the grille opening 120 and splashing onto the first energized part 210 to cause potential safety hazards.

[0062] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the energized component 200 includes a second energized part 220, and the second energized part 220 can be electrically connected to the four-way valve 600.

In some embodiments of the present application, the second energized part 220 includes a four-way valve coil and a four-way valve terminal block as an example for illustration. The applicant found that both the four-way valve coil and the four-way valve terminal block are energized with strong electricity, and in this solution, by providing the partition member 400, it can effectively prevent the human body from passing through the grille opening 120 to touch the second energized part 220 and get an electric shock, and prevent rainwater from passing through the grille opening 120 and splashing onto the second energized part 220 to cause potential safety hazards.

In some embodiments of the present application, the first opening 412 is provided at the bottom of the first cavity 410 as an example for illustration, that is, the partition member 400 can be buckled onto the first energized part 210 vertically. In this solution, the first energized part 210 passes through the first opening 412 and extends into the first cavity 410, that is, the partition member 400 can wrap the first energized part 210 in multiple directions, improving the anti-electric shock performance of the partition member 400, and can also prevent condensed water droplets at multiple positions in the housing 100 from dripping onto the first energized part 210, improving the waterproof performance of the partition member 400. Further, when the first energized part 210 is a compressor power cord and a compressor terminal block, that is, the terminal block of the compressor 500 can extend into the first cavity 410, so the partition member 400 can block the vibration noise of the compressor 500 from being transmitted out through the first cavity 410, effectively reducing the operating noise of the outdoor unit 10.

Specifically, the second charged part 220 can at least partially pass through the second opening 421 and extend into the second cavity 420, and the extension length of the second charged part 220 in the second cavity 420 can be determined according to the actual situation. It can be understood that the second opening 421 can be provided at the bottom of the second cavity 420 or on the side of the second cavity 420. In some embodiments of the present application, the case where the second opening 421 is provided at the bottom of the second cavity 420 is taken as an example for illustration, that is, the partition member 400 can be buckled onto the second charged part 220 vertically. In the solution of the present application, the second charged part 220 passes through the second opening 421 and extends into the second cavity 420, that is, the partition member 400 can wrap the second charged part 220 in multiple directions, effectively improving the anti-electric shock performance of the partition member 400, and can also prevent the condensed water droplets at multiple positions in the housing 100 from dripping onto the second charged part 220, ensuring the waterproof performance.
