The use of "first" or "second" is solely for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated, or implicitly indicating the order of the technical features indicated.

[0048] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0049] The outdoor unit includes an outer shell and a handle. The handle is connected to the side panel of the outer shell. The handle is usually provided with a pipe port for easy passage of the pipe. Rainwater may enter the outdoor unit through the gap between the pipe port, the handle and the side panel. The condensed water generated by the refrigerant joint may also gather on the inner wall of the handle. If the condensed water cannot be discharged quickly, it may overflow to other locations of the outdoor unit.

[0050] To improve the outdoor unit 1000's malfunction caused by water ingress or overflow, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a handle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is applied to an outdoor unit 1000. The outdoor unit has a side panel 210, and the handle 100 is connected to the side panel 210 of the outdoor unit 1000. Figure 2 As shown, the handle 100 includes a grip portion 110, a protruding portion 120, a water receiving plate 130 and a drainage groove 140. The grip portion 110 is connected to the protruding portion 120. For example, the grip portion 110 is located at the upper end of the protruding portion 120 and is integrally formed with the protruding portion 120. The front end of the protruding portion 120 is protruding, and the inner side of the protruding portion 120 is a hollow structure for accommodating the refrigerant connector. Figure 1 As shown, the front end of the protrusion 120 is a closed structure, and the rear end is an open structure, which is beneficial for the protrusion 120 to cover various pipelines inside the outdoor unit 1000 and play a protective role.

[0051] Reference Figure 2As shown, a water receiving plate 130 is connected to the inner side of the protrusion 120, and a drainage cavity 134 is formed above the water receiving plate 130. For example, the drainage cavity 134 is enclosed by the water receiving plate 130 and a portion of the inner wall of the protrusion 120. A drainage groove 140 is formed below the water receiving plate 130 and is configured to divert rainwater or condensed water from the water receiving plate 130 to the exterior of the handle 100. It should be noted that the drainage groove 140 drains rainwater or condensed water from the refrigerant connection out of the handle 100. This can be done by draining the water to the edge of the drainage cavity 134, then connecting to another diversion component to drain the water out of the handle 100. For example, the diversion component can be a drainage channel formed on the chassis of the outdoor unit 1000. The drainage groove 140 guides the water to the drainage channel and finally out of the outdoor unit 1000. Alternatively, the drainage groove 140 can extend directly to the exterior of the handle 100, thereby draining the water directly.

[0052] It can be understood that by adopting the above-mentioned solution, when water enters the handle 100, rainwater flows from top to bottom, passes through the grip portion 110 and the protrusion 120, and finally gathers in the drainage cavity 134 above the water receiving plate 130, or the condensed water produced by the refrigerant joint located above the drainage cavity 134 drops on the upper surface of the water receiving plate 130, and then flows to the outside of the handle 100 under the guidance of the drainage groove 140, which can reduce the failure of the outdoor unit 1000 caused by water ingress and improve the reliability and safety of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the water receiving plate 130 is arranged downwardly and tilted toward the drainage groove 140, and the bottom wall of the drainage groove 140 is arranged downwardly and tilted toward the open end 122 of the protrusion 120. For example, when the drainage groove 140 is arranged in the middle of the water receiving plate 130, and the drainage groove 140 divides the water receiving plate 130 into a first plate 132 and a second plate 133 arranged in the left-right direction, the first plate 132 and the second plate 133 are both arranged downwardly and tilted toward the sidewalls of the drainage groove 140, which facilitates the diversion of collected water into the drainage groove 140 and reduces the accumulation of water on the water receiving plate 130. The bottom wall of the drainage groove 140 is tilted downward in the direction toward the open end 122 of the protrusion 120, that is, the bottom wall of the drainage groove 140 is tilted downward from the front to the back, which is beneficial for directing the water flow into the drainage channel of the outdoor unit 1000 and finally discharged outside the outdoor unit 1000, so as to reduce the probability of water flow entering electronic components, wiring harnesses and other structures, improve the waterproof performance, and improve the operating safety of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0054] In other embodiments, when the drain trough 140 is set on the left side of the water receiving plate 130, the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward from right to left; when the drain trough 140 is set on the right side of the water receiving plate 130, the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward from left to right, so that water can be smoothly diverted to the drain trough 140; when the drain trough 140 is set on the rear side of the water receiving plate 130, the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward from front to rear, effectively preventing water from remaining on the water receiving plate 130 and causing adverse effects such as bacterial growth and mildew.

[0055] Continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a portion of the edge of the water receiving plate 130 disposed within the drainage cavity 134 is connected to the inner wall surface of the protrusion 120, thereby fixing the relative position between the water receiving plate 130 and the protrusion 120. Another portion of the edge of the water receiving plate 130 is connected to the drainage groove 140, which facilitates the flow of water in the drainage cavity 134 along the water receiving plate 130 into the drainage groove 140, thereby draining rainwater or condensation water out of the handle 100 through the drainage groove 140.

[0056] Continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, one end of the drain groove 140 is connected to the closed end 121 of the protrusion 120, and the other end protrudes beyond the open end 122 of the protrusion 120. Therefore, the drain groove 140 facilitates the collection of water in the drainage chamber 134, for example, directing the water flow to the drainage channel of the outdoor unit 1000, and finally draining the water out of the outdoor unit 1000, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0057] Continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward in the direction from the open end 122 to the closed end 121, that is, the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward in the back-to-front direction. The inner side of the protrusion 120 is groove-shaped, and the edge of the water receiving plate 130 is connected to the three inner side walls of the protrusion 120, namely the left inner side wall, the right inner side wall, and the front inner side wall, thereby enclosing a drainage cavity 134 with part of the inner side walls of the protrusion 120. When the water receiving plate 130 is tilted downward in the back-to-front direction, the water receiving capacity of the drainage cavity 134 can be increased, while effectively reducing the overflow of water from the rear edge of the water receiving plate 130. When water drips from top to bottom, the tilted water receiving plate 130 can also reduce the splashing of water out of the drainage cavity 134, thereby improving the water collection effect.

[0058] Continue to refer to Figure 2As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the water receiving plate 130 is provided with a rib 131 on one side of the open end 122. The rib 131 is bent upward. The rib 131 can be integrally formed with the water receiving plate 130, that is, the rib 131 can be considered as the rear edge of the water receiving plate 130 bent upward. The provision of the rib 131 can more effectively prevent water from directly overflowing the rear edge of the water receiving plate 130, thereby allowing the water to flow into the drainage groove 140 and finally out of the drainage cavity 134.

[0059] Continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the drain trough 140 and the water receiving plate 130 are an integrally formed part, and the drain trough 140 is configured to be formed by the water receiving plate 130 being recessed downward. For example, the middle portion of the water receiving plate 130 is recessed downward to form the drain trough 140, or the left or right side of the water receiving plate 130 is recessed to form the drain trough 140. Using an integrally formed part, such as integral injection molding, can improve the production efficiency of the handle 100 and simplify the assembly steps. The connection between the drain trough 140 and the water receiving plate 130 is stable, highly reliable, and not easy to loosen or fall off. Among them, the drain trough 140 can also be connected to the water receiving plate 130 by means of snap connection, fastener connection, etc., and the appropriate connection method is selected according to the actual situation.

[0060] As an alternative embodiment, a drainage hole may be provided on the water receiving plate 130, and the drainage groove 140 may be provided below the drainage hole, spaced apart from or connected to the water receiving plate 130. The drainage direction of the drainage groove 140 may be toward the rear or front side of the handle 100. For example, the drainage outlet of the drainage groove 140 may extend outward and rearward from the open end 122 of the protrusion 120, ultimately collecting the water flow into the drainage channel of the outdoor unit 1000 and uniformly draining out of the outdoor unit 1000. As an alternative embodiment, a water outlet hole may be provided at the front end of the protrusion 120, and the water collected in the drainage groove 140 may be directly discharged through the water outlet hole. The appropriate solution may be selected based on actual conditions.

[0061] Reference Figure 2As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the handle 100 further includes a reinforcing rib 150 connected between the water receiving plate 130 and the bottom wall of the protrusion 120. The reinforcing rib 150 can also be integrally formed with the water receiving plate 130 and the protrusion 120 to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the reinforcing rib 150 and the water receiving plate 130 and the protrusion 120. The reinforcing rib 150 serves to support the water receiving plate 130 and the protrusion 120, thereby reducing the risk of deformation and cracking of the water receiving plate 130 and improving the stability and reliability of the water receiving plate 130. Multiple reinforcing ribs 150 can be provided, with the multiple reinforcing ribs 150 spaced apart along the left-right direction between the water receiving plate 130 and the bottom wall of the protrusion 120. For example, two reinforcing ribs 150 can be provided, one on each side of the water receiving trough, to further improve the structural stability of the water receiving plate 130.

[0062] Reference Figure 8 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the handle portion 110 is protruding, and the lower end is recessed to form a hand grip groove 111. Reaching into the hand grip groove 111 and grasping the protruding portion of the handle portion 110 facilitates transport of the outdoor unit 1000. As an alternative embodiment, the handle portion 110 may also include a pull rod and a shell portion (not shown in this embodiment). The shell portion includes two protrusions spaced apart in the front-to-back direction. The ends of the pull rod are fixedly connected to the two protrusions and spaced apart from the shell portion. When transporting the outdoor unit 1000, simply grasp the pull rod. The specific implementation of the handle portion 110 will be selected based on actual circumstances.

[0063] Reference Figure 1 As shown, an outdoor unit 1000 according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 200 and the handle 100 of the above embodiment. The housing 200 includes a side panel, and the handle 100 is mounted on a side panel 210. The outdoor unit 1000 according to the present embodiment utilizes the handle 100 of the above embodiment. The protrusion 120 of the handle 100 is connected to the grip portion 110. A water receiving plate 130 is disposed within the protrusion 120. A drainage cavity 134 is formed above the water receiving plate 130, and a drainage groove 140 is formed below the water receiving plate 130. Therefore, when water enters the handle 100, the water flows from top to bottom, passing through the grip portion 110 and the protrusion 120, and finally converges into the drainage cavity 134 above the water receiving plate 130. The water is then directed by the drainage groove 140 to flow out of the handle 100. This reduces malfunctions of the outdoor unit 1000 due to water ingress, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0064] exist Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in FIG. 1 , in the embodiment of the present invention, the side walls of the handle 100 are provided with outwardly bent abutting portions 160. Figure 2 Taking the direction in the figure as an example, the two side walls of the handle 100 are the left and right side walls. The side of the abutting portion 160 facing the side plate 210 is provided with a first rib 161, and the side of the abutting portion 160 facing the side plate 210 is the rear side of the abutting portion 160. The first rib 161 is arranged to extend in the up-down direction. Figure 6 As shown, the side panel 210 is provided with a first groove 211 extending in the vertical direction. The first groove 211 may be a recessed structure formed by the side panel 210. Two first grooves 211 are provided, spaced apart in the left-right direction, and correspond to the positions of the two first ribs 161. When the handle 100 is mounted on the side panel 210, the rear side of the abutment portion 160 abuts and engages with the outer sidewall of the side panel 210, and the first rib 161 engages with the first groove 211. Therefore, when the outer side wall of the abutting portion 160 and the side panel 210 cooperate, it is possible to effectively reduce the amount of rainwater that enters the interior of the outdoor unit 1000 along the gap between the abutting portion 160 and the side panel 210. Then, by providing the first rib 161 and cooperating with the first groove 211, the path for rainwater to enter the interior of the outdoor unit 1000 is extended. When the first groove 211 is extended in the up and down directions, it can divert rainwater, causing the water to flow downward along the first groove 211, further reducing the amount of rainwater that penetrates into the interior of the outdoor unit 1000 and improving the safety of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0065] Reference Figure 6 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, two second ribs 212 are provided on the outer wall of the side panel 210. The two second ribs 212 are spaced apart in the left-right direction and located between the two abutting portions 160. For example, the two second ribs 212 are located between the two first ribs 161. The second ribs 212 abut the inner wall of the handle 100. Thus, three waterproof lines are formed between the handle 100 and the side panel 210: the first abutting portion 160 and the outer wall of the side panel 210; the second abutting portion 161 and the first groove 211; and the third abutting portion 212 and the inner wall of the handle 100. The provision of these three waterproof lines further reduces the risk of rainwater entering the interior of the outdoor unit 1000 through the gap between the handle 100 and the side panel 210, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the outdoor unit 1000 and thereby enhancing the safety and reliability of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0066] Reference Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, the side panel 210 is provided with a flange 214. The flange 214 can be formed by bending the upper end wall of the through hole 215 of the side panel 210 inward. The upper end of the handle 100 is provided with a hook portion 190. The hook portion 190 extends in the left-right direction and has a slot 191 formed at the upper end. The hook portion 190 is configured to engage the flange 214 when the handle 100 is slid upward to the installation position, that is, the flange 214 is locked into the slot 191. During installation, the hook 190 and the flange 214 cooperate to limit the handle 100 from moving further upward, thereby playing a positioning role. The hook 190 extends in the left and right directions. When water seeps from the upper end of the handle 100, the hook 190 and the flange 214 can divert the water flow to the left and right sides, which is conducive to the water flow gathering into the drainage cavity 134, preventing the water flow from penetrating into the interior of the outdoor unit 1000, and improving the waterproof effect of the outdoor unit 1000.

[0067] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, buckles 170 are respectively provided on both side walls of the handle 100. For example, two buckles 170 are provided on each of the left and right side walls of the handle 100. The buckles 170 include an upwardly bent portion. The side panels 210 are provided with latch holes 213 that cooperate with the buckles 170. The number of latch holes 213 is the same as the number of buckles 170. For example, two buckles 170 are provided on each of the left and right sides. The width of the buckles 170 gradually decreases from bottom to top. The buckles 170 are configured to be able to penetrate into the latch holes 213 and snap into the latch holes 213 when the handle 100 slides upward. That is, the bent portion of the buckle 170 is inserted into the latch holes 213 and snaps into the upper end of the latch holes 213, thereby fixing the relative position between the handle 100 and the side panels 210. The installation is simple and convenient, which can simplify the assembly process.

[0068] In another embodiment, the handle 100 and the side panel 210 can also be connected and fixed by fasteners. Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the handle 100 further includes a screw column 180, which is fixed to the side plate 210 by screws to lock the handle 100 and the side plate 210. Therefore, fixing the position of the handle 100 by screws can improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle 100 and the side plate 210, and avoid the risk of the handle 100 loosening and falling off.

[0069] Reference Figure 1As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the housing 200 further includes a top cover 220, a front panel 230, and a mesh cover 250. The side panels 210 are connected to the sides of the front panel 230. The top cover 220 is connected to the upper end of the front panel 230. The middle portion of the front panel 230 is provided with an air hole. The mesh cover 250 covers the air hole to play a protective role and facilitate air flow in and out. The top cover 220, the front panel 230, the side panels 210, and the mesh cover 250 are surrounded by a mounting cavity, and the mounting cavity is equipped with structures such as a condenser, a compressor, and an axial flow fan.
