[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0035] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features limited to "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears in the full text, its meaning includes three parallel schemes. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes scheme A, or scheme B, or a scheme in which A and B are satisfied at the same time. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is mutually contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0036] The present invention proposes an air conditioner, which includes an indoor air conditioner unit and an outdoor air conditioner unit, wherein a flexible connection component 3 connects the indoor air conditioner unit and the outdoor air conditioner unit, respectively. The air conditioner can be a split-type air conditioner that is convenient for users to install individually. In this case, the flexible connection component 3 includes a flexible refrigerant pipe, which connects the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor air conditioner unit and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor air conditioner unit, and refrigerant is injected into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. In this way, when the user installs the equipment by themselves, they only need to fix the indoor air conditioner unit and the outdoor air conditioner unit separately, without the need to assemble the flexible refrigerant pipe and add refrigerant, thereby reducing the difficulty of installation and enabling personal installation by the user. However, the present design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the air conditioner of the present invention can also be an ordinary split-type air conditioner or an integrated air conditioner.

[0037] Furthermore, this split-type air conditioner, designed for user-friendly installation, can have its compressor installed inside the indoor unit, reducing the weight of the outdoor unit and facilitating its installation outdoors. Accordingly, to reduce compressor noise, a noise-reducing mechanism is required. This results in a heavier overall weight for the indoor unit. To facilitate installation, the indoor unit can be floor-standing, with wheels installed on its bottom to facilitate installation and movement.

[0038] The flexible connection assembly 3 also includes a sleeve. Since the flexible refrigerant pipe generally has two to form a refrigerant circuit, the two flexible refrigerant pipes are both passed through the sleeve, so that the two flexible refrigerant pipes form a whole, thereby further reducing the difficulty of installation and facilitating individual installation by the user. The sleeve can also be configured as a wire structure, which is wrapped around the outer circumference of the flexible refrigerant pipe to form a sleeve.

[0039] Furthermore, the flexible connection assembly 3 also includes a drain pipe and connecting wires. The flexible refrigerant pipe, drain pipe, and connecting wires are all inserted into the casing, thereby configuring the flexible refrigerant pipe, drain pipe, and connecting wires as a whole, further reducing the difficulty of installation and facilitating individual installation by the user. Of course, in other embodiments, only the flexible refrigerant pipe and drain pipe may be inserted into the casing; or only the flexible refrigerant pipe and connecting wire may be inserted into the casing.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner outdoor unit or the air conditioner outdoor unit includes:

[0041] Container 1;

[0042] The fixing bracket 2 is installed on the receiving component 1 to fix the flexible connection component 3 to the receiving component 1, and a pre-installation structure and a fixing structure are provided between the fixing bracket 2 and the receiving component 1.

[0043] Specifically, because the flexible connection assembly 3 connects the indoor air conditioner and the outdoor air conditioner, respectively, a portion of the flexible connection assembly 3 must be inserted into the interior of the indoor air conditioner and the outdoor air conditioner. During installation, the movement of the indoor air conditioner or the outdoor air conditioner can easily cause the flexible connection assembly 3 to swing, potentially causing the flexible connection assembly 3 to detach from the internal components of the air conditioner to which it is connected. It can also cause compression or collision with other components within the air conditioner, affecting the stability of the flexible connection assembly 3 and other components. Especially for the outdoor air conditioner, the movement range is greater during installation, making it more likely to cause the flexible connection assembly 3 to swing. Therefore, the fixed bracket 2 can be installed on the outdoor air conditioner or the indoor air conditioner. The following description will be based on the installation of the fixed bracket 2 on the outdoor air conditioner.

[0044] Therefore, the air-conditioning outdoor unit has a receiving part 1, and the fixing bracket 2 is fixed on the receiving part 1, so that the flexible connection component 3 is fixed on the receiving part 1, thereby ensuring that the section of the flexible connection component 3 extending into the air-conditioning outdoor unit is fixed, thereby reducing the impact of the swing of the flexible connection component 3 on the internal components of the air-conditioning outdoor unit. In order to facilitate the installation between the fixing bracket 2 and the receiving part 1, a pre-installation structure and a fixing structure are provided between the fixing bracket 2 and the receiving part 1. The pre-installation structure is used for the preliminary installation positioning and pre-fixation of the fixing bracket 2, thereby facilitating the positioning and installation of the fixing bracket 2, and the fixing structure is used to further fix the fixing bracket 2, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the fixing bracket 2, thereby facilitating the installation of the fixing bracket 2, and eliminating the need for manpower or tools to position the fixing bracket 2 during the fixing process of the fixing structure. In other embodiments, only a fixing structure may be provided between the fixing bracket 2 and the receiving part 1.

[0045] The air conditioner outdoor unit includes a housing, and the receiving member 1 is disposed within the housing. The housing is provided with a mounting hole for the flexible connection assembly 3 to pass through, and the fixing bracket 2 can be disposed near the mounting hole. The fixing bracket 2 can be connected to the receiving member 1 on one side and to the flexible connection assembly 3 on the other side to ensure the fixation of the flexible connection assembly 3; the flexible connection assembly 3 can also be directly pressed and fixed to the receiving member 1. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the fixing bracket 2 reserves a certain amount of space for the flexible connection assembly 3 to ensure the normal operation of the flexible connection assembly 3. In other embodiments, the receiving member 1 can also be directly configured as a housing, and the fixing bracket 2 is installed on the inside of the housing to fix the flexible connection assembly 3.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the supporting member 1 is configured as a middle partition, which divides the internal space of the air conditioner into a first space and a second space. The first space is used for installing the heat exchanger of the air conditioner, the flexible connection component 3 extends into the second space, and the fixed bracket 2 is arranged on the side of the middle partition facing the second space.

[0047] Specifically, because the refrigerant circuit of this split-type air conditioner is filled with refrigerant before shipment, there's no need to assemble a flexible refrigerant pipe or add refrigerant. However, to accommodate various installation environments, the length of the flexible connecting assembly 3 must be sufficiently generous. After installation, any excess length of the flexible connecting assembly 3 needs to be stored. To ensure aesthetics and minimize the impact of the excessively long flexible connecting assembly 3 on the user's daily life, a central partition is provided. The central partition divides the interior of the air conditioner into a first space and a second space. The first and second spaces are separated and disconnected, with the first space housing the heat exchanger and fan assembly, serving as the air conditioner's primary space. The excess length of the flexible connecting assembly 3 is stored in the second space, making it easier to store. Therefore, the flexible connecting assembly 3 extends directly from the housing into the second space. The fixing bracket 2 is located on the side of the central partition facing the second space, securing the portion of the flexible connecting assembly 3 inserted into the second space to the central partition, thereby minimizing the possibility of the flexible connecting assembly 3 swinging within the second space.

[0048] When the middle partition is installed in the outdoor air conditioner, it is used to separate the outdoor heat exchanger and the flexible connection assembly 3; when the middle partition is installed in the indoor air conditioner, it is used to separate the indoor heat exchanger and the flexible connection assembly 3. In other embodiments, the air conditioner can be an integrated air conditioner, in which case the middle partition can be used to separate the indoor module and the outdoor module of the air conditioner.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present invention, the pre-installation structure includes a mounting hook 21 provided on the fixing bracket 2 and a mounting position provided on the receiving component 1, with the mounting hook 21 being hooked to the mounting position. Specifically, the fixing bracket 2 has a mounting hook 21 corresponding to the mounting position provided on the receiving component 1, and the mounting hook 21 is hooked to the mounting position, thereby achieving preliminary positioning and installation of the fixing structure. The installation hook 21 is directly hooked to the receiving component 1, which can facilitate the installation of the fixing bracket 2 and the receiving component 1, thereby facilitating the assembly of the operator.

[0050] Furthermore, the mounting hook 21 is hooked to the upper edge of the receiving member 1. That is, the mounting position is provided at the upper edge of the receiving member 1, and the mounting hook 21 is directly hooked to the upper edge of the receiving member 1, eliminating the need to provide a hook hole on the receiving member 1 for the mounting hook 21 to hook thereto. This facilitates the processing of the receiving member 1 and the installation of the mounting hook 21. In other embodiments, a hook hole may be provided at another location on the receiving member 1, and the mounting hook 21 may be inserted into the hook hole and hooked to the edge of the hook hole.

[0051] During the installation process, the fixing bracket 2 may slide on the receiving member 1, affecting the subsequent installation of the fixing structure. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present utility model, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 The receiving member 1 is provided with a first mounting notch 11, and the mounting hook 21 is mounted on the edge of the first mounting notch 11. The width of the first mounting notch 11 is configured to decrease as it approaches the mounting hook 21. Specifically, the first mounting notch 11 can limit the movement of the mounting hook 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the mounting hook 21 during installation, as well as the mounting accuracy of the mounting hook 21 and the accurate installation of the fixed structure. Furthermore, the width of the first mounting notch 11 is configured to decrease as it approaches the mounting hook 21, thereby forming a first guide edge 111 on at least one side of the first mounting notch 11. This guides the movement of the mounting hook 21 during installation and facilitates the mounting of the mounting hook 21.

[0052] In another embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The receiving component 1 is provided with a mounting flange 12 that is bent away from the flexible connection component 3. The mounting flange 12 is provided with a second hanging notch 121. The mounting hook 21 is hung in the second hanging notch 121, and the width of the second hanging notch 121 is set to become smaller in the direction approaching the mounting hook 21. Specifically, the mounting flange 12 is bent away from the flexible connection component 3, thereby increasing the thickness of the receiving component 1 at the hanging position of the mounting hook 21, ensuring the hanging stability of the mounting hook 21. The mounting flange 12 is provided with a second hanging notch 121. The mounting hook 21 is hung in the second hanging notch 121. The second hanging notch 121 can limit the movement of the mounting hook 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the mounting hook 21 during installation, and also ensuring the hanging accuracy of the mounting hook 21, ensuring the accurate installation of the fixed structure. The width of the second hanging gap 121 is set to become smaller in the direction close to the installation hook 21, so that at least one side edge of the second hanging gap 121 forms a second guide edge 122, thereby guiding the movement of the installation hook 21 during the installation process and facilitating the hanging of the installation hook 21.

[0053] See also Figures 1 to 7 In the embodiment of the present invention, the fixing structure includes a first mounting hole 22 provided in the fixing bracket 2 and a second mounting hole 13 provided in the receiving component 1. The fastener passes through the first mounting hole 22 and is connected to the second mounting hole 13. Specifically, the fixing bracket 2 is fixed to the receiving component 1 by the fastener, thereby facilitating the installation of the fixing bracket 2 and ensuring the fixing stability of the fixing bracket 2.

[0054] Among them, in this solution, the initial positioning and installation are achieved by the cooperation of the installation hook 21 and the receiving part 1, and then the fastener is used to further ensure the fixing stability of the fixed bracket 2. In other embodiments, the pre-installation structure includes a clamping structure, and the fixing structure includes a first mounting hole 22 provided on the fixing bracket 2 and a second mounting hole 13 provided on the receiving part 1, and the fastener passes through the first mounting hole 22 and is connected to the second mounting hole 13. Alternatively, the pre-installation structure includes a mounting hook 21 provided on the fixing bracket 2 and a receiving part 1 provided on the receiving part 1, and the mounting hook 21 passes through the receiving part 1 and is clamped to the edge of the receiving part 1, and the fixing structure is configured as a clamping structure. Alternatively, the pre-installation structure is configured as an adhesive such as tape, and the fixing bracket 2 is initially positioned and installed on the receiving part 1 through the adhesive, and then fixed and installed by the fastener. After the fastener is fixed and installed, the tape is torn off. The fastener can be configured as a fastening screw or a fastening bolt, and the fastener is connected to the second mounting hole 13 by threading. However, the receiving part 1 is a thin plate structure, and the depth corresponding to the second mounting hole 13 is very shallow. Therefore, in order to ensure that the fastener does not slip from the receiving part 1 during the tightening process, a thickened portion is provided on the receiving part 1, and the second mounting hole 13 passes through the thickened portion to locally thicken the thickness of the receiving part 1 to ensure the stability of the threaded connection between the fastener and the second mounting hole 13.

[0055] Please refer again Figures 1 to 7 In an embodiment of the present invention, the fixing bracket 2 forms a pressing groove for the flexible connection component 3 to be inserted into, and the pressing groove presses the flexible connection component 3 onto the receiving part 1, and the notch of the pressing groove and the opposite sides of the flexible connection component 3 are bent and connected to a mounting portion 23, and the pre-installation structure and the fixing structure are installed between the mounting portion 23 and the receiving part 1. Specifically, the fixing bracket 2 forms a pressing groove, and the pressing groove is opened on both sides along the axial direction of the flexible connection component 3 to facilitate the flexible connection component 3 to be inserted into the pressing groove, so that the pressing groove forms a semi-enclosing structure for the flexible connection component 3, so that by fixing the pressing groove on the opposite sides of the flexible connection component 3 to the receiving part 1, the flexible connection component 3 can be pressed and fixed to the receiving part 1, thereby facilitating the fixation of the flexible connection component 3, and the cross-sectional shape of the pressing groove should be adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the flexible connection component 3, so that the flexible connection component 3 can be fixed without generating excessive extrusion force on the flexible connection component 3. In other embodiments, the fixing bracket 2 may also be configured as a cable tie, which is used to fasten the flexible connection component 3 and then fixed to the receiving component 1 .

[0056] The notch of the compression groove and the opposite sides of the flexible connection component 3 are bent and connected to a mounting portion 23, and the pre-installation structure and the fixing structure are installed between the mounting portion 23 and the receiving part 1, thereby facilitating the installation between the compression clamp and the receiving part 1.

[0057] In an embodiment of the present invention, the mounting hook 21 includes a main body 211 extending in a direction away from the fixed bracket, and a hook portion 112 bent and connected to one end of the main body 211. The distance between the hook portion 112 and the opposite side of the fixed bracket is greater than the thickness of the receiving member 1. Specifically, the main body 211 extends in a direction away from the fixed bracket 2, that is, when installed, the main body 211 is arranged generally horizontally. Moreover, the overall thickness of the mounting hook 21 is relatively thin, so the distance between the hook portion 112 and the opposite side of the fixed bracket 2 is approximately equal to the width of the main body 211 in a direction perpendicular to the fixed bracket 2. If the distance between the hook portion 112 and the opposite side of the fixed bracket 2 is less than or equal to the thickness of the receiving member 1, it will be more difficult to attach the mounting hook 21 to the receiving member 1, which is not conducive to the installation of the mounting hook 21. In addition, in this embodiment, the fixed bracket 2 fixes the flexible connection component 3 to the receiving member 1 through a crimping action. For example, during actual installation, if the inner width of the installation hook 21 is equal to the thickness of the receiving part 1, then when the fixing bracket 2 is hung on the receiving part 1, the flexible connection component 3 can be pressed against the receiving part 1, making the installation of the installation hook 21 more difficult, and under the action of the rebound force of the flexible connection component 3, the installation hook 21 is easy to fall out, which is not conducive to the subsequent fixation of the fixed structure.

[0058] In order to ensure the structural strength of the fixing bracket 2, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the fixing structure is provided with a reinforcing rib 24. The fixing bracket 2 is partially stamped to form the reinforcing rib 24, so as to facilitate the processing of the reinforcing rib 24.

[0059] To further facilitate the positioning and installation of the flexible connection assembly 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, the receiving member 1 is provided with at least one stopper protrusion 14 on opposite sides of the flexible connection assembly 3, with the multiple stopper protrusions 14 protruding toward the flexible connection assembly 3. Specifically, the stopper protrusions 14 are provided on opposite sides of the flexible connection assembly 3 and protrude toward the flexible connection assembly 3, thereby forming a stopper groove on the receiving member 1. The flexible connection assembly 3 is positioned in this stopper groove, thereby ensuring the installation and positioning of the flexible connection assembly 3. The stopper protrusions 14 are partially stamped on the receiving member 1 to facilitate the processing of the stopper protrusions 14, and the stopper protrusions 14 are adapted to the shape of the flexible connection assembly 3.

[0060] The above are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
