[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the utility model and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art, the utility model is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model discloses a wiring structure, including a wire fixing buckle 10 and a fixing part 20, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the fixing part 20 are integrally formed, one end of the wire fixing buckle 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing part 20, and the other end of the wire fixing buckle 10 and the other side of the fixing part 20 form a clearance space 30, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the fixing part 20 are surrounded to form a wire pressing space 40, the clearance space 30 is connected to the wire pressing space 40, and the wire body is introduced into the wire pressing space 40 through the clearance space 30 for fixing.

[0030] The wire fixing buckle 10 of this embodiment is used to compress and fix power lines, rubber-sheathed soft wires, etc. The fixing part 20 is a part of the electrical box 1. To be more specific, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the fixing part 20 are integrally formed, that is, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the electrical box 1 are integrally formed. A clearance space 30 is left between the other end of the wire fixing buckle 10 and the other side of the fixing part 20, so that the wire body can enter the wire pressing space 40 from the clearance space 30, and the wire body can be compressed and fixed by the wire pressing space formed by the fixing part 20 and the wire fixing buckle 10.

[0031] Furthermore, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the electrical box 1 can be injection molded in one step, so that the electrical box 1 has a built-in wire fixing function and the wiring is reliable.

[0032] In this embodiment, the wire fixing buckle 10 is directly assembled on the electrical box 1 in advance, and there is no need to manually assemble the wire fixing buckle 10 on the electrical box 1 by screw fixing. In this regard, the method in the prior art that the wire fixing clip needs to be fixed on the electrical box 1 with two screws is eliminated. From the perspective of wire fixing clip assembly, the screw driving process is omitted, and the assembly process is optimized. Overall, the fixing assembly process of the wire fixing buckle 10 is omitted, and the fixing efficiency of power lines, rubber-sheathed soft wires, etc. is improved; from a cost perspective, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the electrical box 1 are injection molded at one time. This design reduces the use of screws, saves material costs, and improves assembly efficiency to achieve labor cost savings. In addition, the original wire fixing clip mold is omitted, saving mold opening costs.

[0033] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a compression rib 50 is provided on the fixing portion 20 along the wiring direction of the wire body, and the compression rib 50 is convexly arranged toward the wire fixing buckle 10. On the one hand, the arrangement of the compression rib 50 improves the structural strength of the fixing portion, and on the other hand, the convex arrangement mode enables the wire to be lifted up by the compression rib 50 after passing through the wire pressing space 40, so that the wire body is pressed more tightly by the wire pressing space 40 formed by the wire fixing buckle 10 and the fixing portion 20, and the wire fixing is stable and reliable.

[0034] The fixing portion 20 has a first fixing surface 201, and the compression rib 50 is protruded on the first fixing surface 201. The first fixing surface 201 is arranged opposite to the wire fixing buckle 10, and the first fixing surface 201 is located in the lower area of the wire fixing buckle 10. Furthermore, the wire fixing buckle 10 and the first fixing surface 201 form the middle part of the wire pressing space 40. After the wire body is inserted into the wire pressing space 40, the upper side surface of the wire body is opposite to the wire fixing buckle 10, and the lower side surface of the wire body is opposite to the first fixing surface 201.

[0035] Along the routing direction of the wire body, the first fixed surface 201 has a front part, a middle part, and a rear part relative to the wire fixing buckle 10. The front part of the first fixed surface 201 is the front end of the wire body, the middle part of the first fixed surface 201 is arranged opposite to the wire fixing buckle 10, and the rear part of the first fixed surface 201 is the rear end of the wire body. The compression rib 50 is arranged at the rear end of the first fixed surface relative to the routing of the wire body.

[0036] The height of the wire fixing buckle 10 from the first fixing surface 201 and the width of the wire fixing buckle 10 are adjusted according to the wire diameter and the number of wires to ensure that the wires are clamped.

[0037] In order to improve the fixing reliability of the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord, in this embodiment, a compression rib 50 is arranged at at least one position on the rear of the first fixing surface 201, and the number of the compression ribs 50 is adjusted according to the actual situation. The wire body is introduced from the clearance space 30 into the wire pressing space 40. After the compression ribs 50 are added, the wire body is not easy to loosen out of the pressing space, and the fastening is reliable.

[0038] The compression ribs 50 are arranged as follows. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The rear position of the first fixing surface 201 is shown to facilitate mold opening.

[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the wire fixing buckle 10 includes a limiting hook 101 and a pressing portion 102 , one end of the pressing portion 102 is fixedly connected to the fixing portion 20 , and the other end of the pressing portion 102 is fixedly connected to the limiting hook 101 .

[0040] The limiting hook 101 is bent toward the first fixing surface 201 , and a lead wire opening is formed between the limiting hook 101 and the first fixing surface 201 , and the lead wire opening communicates the clearance space 30 with the wire pressing space 40 .

[0041] By setting a limiting hook 101 on the wire fixing buckle 10, the limiting hook 101 is bent toward the first fixed surface 201. After the wire body is introduced into the wire pressing space 40 through the clearance space 30, the limiting hook 101 makes it difficult for the wire body to loosen from the clearance space 30. After the wiring is completed, the wire body is affected by the limiting hook 101 to ensure that the wire body is fixed in the upper limit direction in the left and right directions.

[0042] The limiting hook 101 and the pressing part 102 are integrally formed structures, and the limiting hook 101, the pressing part 102, and the fixing part 20 are integrally formed and connected. An angle is formed between one end of the limiting hook 101 and the other end of the pressing part 102, and the range of the angle can be an obtuse angle or a right angle. One end of the limiting hook 101 extends and protrudes toward the first fixing surface 201.

[0043] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the clamping rib 50 is located at the rear side of the limiting hook 101, and adopts the upper and lower demolding method, while the limiting hook 101 adopts the front and back demolding method. This solution can meet the mold demolding requirements and avoid demolding interference.

[0044] According to the design scheme of this embodiment, the wire pressing function of the wire fixing clamp can be integrated into the electrical box 1, reducing one wire fixing clamp and one screw. The electrical box 1 has a self-contained wiring structure, which can save a lot of mold opening costs, material costs, and labor costs, while reducing the air conditioner assembly process, achieving the effect of reducing staff and increasing efficiency.

[0045] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the fixing portion 20 is further provided with a second fixing surface 202 , and an angle is formed between the second fixing surface 202 and the first fixing surface 201 , and the above-mentioned clearance space 30 is formed between the second fixing surface 202 and the limiting hook 101 .

[0046] A second fixing surface 202 is extended from the other side of the first fixing surface 201, and the second fixing surface 202 is arranged close to one side of the limiting hook 101. The limiting hook 101 and the second fixing surface 202 are surrounded to form a clearance space 30. Usually, the height of the second fixing surface 202 is greater than the height of the wire fixing buckle 10, that is, the height of the second fixing surface 202 is greater than the highest height of the limiting hook 101.

[0047] In this embodiment, the wiring structure is designed on the electrical box 1, and the first fixed surface 201 and the second fixed surface 202 are components of the electrical box. The second fixed surface 202 is close to the edge of the electrical box 1, and the other end of the limit hook 101 is close to the edge of the electrical box 1. The design of the clearance space 30 is convenient for wiring. When wiring the air conditioner indoor unit, first plug the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord into the main board of the electrical box 1, and after reserving enough length, the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord is sequentially inserted into the wire pressing space 40 formed by the fixed wire buckle 10 and the first fixed surface 201 along the clearance space 30. Thus, the fixed wire buckle 10 presses and fixes the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord, and under the limiting action of the pressing rib 50, the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord is more fixed and reliable, and at the same time, the limit hook 101 is used to prevent the power cord or rubber-sheathed soft cord from loosening.

[0048] In some embodiments, a reinforcing rib structure 60 is provided on the outer side of the wire fixing buckle 10, and the reinforcing rib structure 60 is integrally formed with the wire fixing buckle 10. Usually, the reinforcing rib structure 60 is formed protrudingly on the outer side of the wire fixing buckle 10, the outer side of the wire fixing buckle 10 is arranged away from the first fixing surface 201, and the inner side of the wire fixing hook is arranged close to the first fixing surface 201.

[0049] Generally speaking, the reinforcing rib structure 60 is formed on the outside of the clamping portion 102. The reinforcing rib structure 60 is in the shape of a strip, i.e., a reinforcing rib strip. Two or more reinforcing rib structures 60 can be designed. The number of reinforcing rib structures 60 can be increased or decreased according to actual conditions to improve the structural strength of the wire buckle 10.

[0050] In some embodiments, the reinforcing rib structure 60 extends to the outer side of the limiting hook 101 to improve the structural strength of the limiting hook 101 .

[0051] The present invention also provides an electrical box 1 including the above-mentioned wiring structure. The wiring structure and the electrical box 1 are integrally formed by injection molding, and the fixing portion 20 of the wiring structure is a component structure of the electrical box 1, that is, the wire fixing buckle 10 is formed on the electrical box 1 by injection molding.

[0052] The embodiment of the utility model further provides an air conditioner, comprising the above-mentioned electrical appliance box 1.

[0053] The main functions of this utility model:

[0054] 1. The utility model designs the wire fixing buckle 10 and the fixing part 20 to be integrally formed. The fixing part 20 is a component of the electrical box 1. When routing the wires, there is no need to manually screw the wire fixing buckle 10 to the fixing part 20, which saves the step of fixing the wire fixing buckle 10 and the cost of screw materials. The overall assembly efficiency of the wire fixing buckle 10 is improved and the material cost is reduced.

[0055] 2. The wire fixing buckle 10 of the utility model and the first fixing surface 201 of the fixing part 20 are arranged to form a wire pressing space 40, and the other end of the wire fixing buckle 10 and the second fixing surface 202 of the fixing part 20 are provided with a clearance space 30, so that the wire body can be inserted into the wire pressing space 40 through the clearance space 30, and the wiring is reliable and stable.

[0056] 3. The limit hook 101 designed in the utility model is bent toward the first fixing surface 201 of the fixing part 20, which reduces the lead opening of the wire body entering the wire pressing space 40, and can effectively prevent the wire body from loosening out of the wire pressing space 40 through the lead opening and sliding out of the wire fixing buckle 10 from the avoidance space, thereby ensuring the limit fixation of the wire body in the left and right directions.

[0057] 4. The utility model also designs a clamping rib 50 on the first fixing surface 201 of the fixing portion 20. The clamping rib 50 is arranged in the routing direction of the wire body to ensure the limiting fixation of the wire body in the front-back direction.

[0058] 5. The utility model also provides a reinforcing rib structure 60 on the outer side of the wire fixing buckle 10 to improve the structural strength of the wire fixing buckle 10 .
