[0035] The embodiments of the present application provide an electric control assembly and an air conditioner to solve the problem of poor structural strength of the electric control box.

[0036] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides an electric control component 9, including a first connecting plate 1, a second connecting plate 2, a third connecting plate 3, a connecting beam 4 and a fixing member 5.

[0037] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first connecting plate 1 is used to carry the first electrical control 11, and the second connecting plate 2 is used to carry the second electrical control 21. The first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2 are both arranged in the vertical direction and are perpendicular to each other. One end of the first connecting plate 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the second connecting plate 2. Specifically, the fixing member 5 includes two mutually perpendicular fixing parts, and a clamping hole 51 is provided at the connection between the two fixing parts. Both fixing parts are provided with threaded holes. A buckle 22 that matches the clamping hole 51 is provided on the side of the second connecting plate 2 close to the first connecting plate 1. By bolting one of the fixing parts to the first connecting plate 1, and then buckling the buckle 22 of the second connecting plate 2 into the clamping hole 51, the second connecting plate 2 is preliminarily fixed relative to the first connecting plate 1, and then the second connecting plate 2 is bolted to the other fixing part, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2.

[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The third connecting plate 3 is used to carry the third electrical control unit 31. The third connecting plate 3 is arranged horizontally and is located on the top of the first connecting plate 1. The third connecting plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top side edge of the first connecting plate 1 by bolts. The first connecting plate 1, the second connecting plate 2 and the third connecting plate 3 enclose a receiving cavity 6. The connecting beam 4 connects the first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2. Specifically, the connecting beam 4 includes a first connecting portion 41, a second connecting portion 42 and a beam body 43. The first connecting portion 41 and the second connecting portion 42 are respectively arranged at both ends of the beam body 43 in the length direction. The first connecting portion 41 is fixedly connected to the end of the first connecting plate 1 away from the third connecting plate 3 by bolts, and the second connecting portion 42 is fixedly connected to the end of the second connecting plate 2 away from the third connecting plate 3 by bolts. In addition, a protrusion is provided at one end of the beam body 43 in the thickness direction, thereby improving the bending resistance of the connecting beam 4. The connecting beam 4 is provided to connect the first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2 so that the connecting beam 4, the first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2 form a triangular structure, thereby improving the structural strength of the first connecting plate 1 and the second connecting plate 2.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first electric control unit 11 is a high-power heat source, the second electric control unit 21 is a low-power heat source, and the third electric control unit 31 is a high-power heat source. An air outlet 12 is provided on the first connecting plate 1. When a negative pressure is formed on the air outlet side of the air outlet 12, the air in the accommodating cavity 6 can flow out from the air outlet 12 and take away the heat generated by the first electric control unit 11, the second electric control unit 21 and the third electric control unit 31. The air outlet 12 is directly opposite the third electric control unit 31, so that the air can take away a large amount of heat generated by the third electric control unit 31.

[0040] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The electronic control component 9 further includes a radiator 7 for dissipating heat for the first electronic control component 11 . The radiator 7 includes a heat conductor 71 , a heat pipe 72 and a heat dissipation component 73 . The heat conducting member 71 includes a first heat conducting plate 711 and a second heat conducting plate 712. Specifically, a mounting hole 13 is provided on the first connecting plate 1. The first heat conducting plate 711 is passed through the mounting hole 13 and is fixedly connected to the first electrical control unit 11 to facilitate the heat generated by the first electrical control unit 11. The second heat conducting plate 712 is arranged on the side of the first heat conducting plate 711 away from the first electrical control unit 11. A first receiving groove is provided on the side of the first heat conducting plate 711 close to the second heat conducting plate 712. A second receiving groove is provided on the side of the second heat conducting plate 712 close to the first heat conducting plate 711. The first receiving groove and the second receiving groove are combined to form a receiving cavity 6 for receiving and fixing the heat pipe 72. When the heat pipe 72 is received in the receiving cavity 6, the groove wall of the first receiving groove and the groove wall of the second receiving groove are both in contact with the pipe wall of the heat pipe 72 to facilitate the heat on the first heat conducting member 71 to be transferred to the heat pipe 72.

[0041] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The heat sink 73 includes a plurality of heat sink fins 731, which are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the heat pipe 72 at one end of the heat pipe 72 away from the heat conductor 71, so that the heat on the heat pipe 72 can be dissipated through the heat sink 73. In addition, the heat sink 73 is placed on the air outlet side of the air outlet 12, so that the air can convectively exchange heat with the radiator 7 when flowing out of the air outlet 12, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the radiator 7.

[0042] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The heat pipe 72 includes a tube body, a tube core, and a working medium. A heat conduction cavity is defined within the tube body, and the tube core is disposed within the tube body. In this embodiment, the tube body is cylindrical, and the tube core is cylindrical. The outer wall of the tube core abuts the inner wall of the tube body. The tube core has a porous structure, allowing the tube core to absorb liquid working medium. When one end of the heat pipe 72 disposed within the heat conducting element 71 is heated, the working medium within the tube core is heated and transformed into vapor. The working medium vapor enters the cavity in the middle of the tube core and flows toward the heat dissipation element 73 end of the heat pipe 72. Subsequently, the working medium vapor releases heat and transforms into liquid. The liquid working medium is absorbed by the tube core and moves to the heat conducting element 71 section of the heat pipe 72 under the action of a siphon, thereby achieving heat transfer.

[0043] To summarize, an electric control box is formed by arranging a first connecting plate, a second connecting plate and a third connecting plate to carry and fix a variety of electric components; the first connecting plate is arranged on the third connecting plate, the second connecting plate is connected to the first connecting plate, and the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are connected by a connecting beam, so that the connecting beam, the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate form a triangular stable structure, thereby improving the structural strength of the electric control box; in addition, the third connecting plate is fixed to one end of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate, and the connecting beam is fixed to the other end of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate, thereby solving the problem of poor structural strength of the electric control box.

[0044] An embodiment of the present application also provides an air conditioner, which includes the electronic control component 9 and the fan 8 as described above. The electronic control component 9 is arranged on the air inlet side of the fan 8, that is, the air outlet 12 of the first connecting plate 1 is opened on the air inlet side of the fan 8, so that when the fan 8 is running, a negative pressure is formed on the air outlet side of the air outlet 12, so that the air in the accommodating cavity 6 can be discharged from the air outlet 12, thereby improving the heat exchange capacity of the electronic control component 9.
