[0052] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the following will be combined with the accompanying drawings to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0053] The following combination Figures 1 to 12 The utility model describes an electric control box for an outdoor unit of an air conditioner.
[0054] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, the electric control box for the outdoor unit of the air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a box body 1, a cover cap 5 and a cover plate 6.
[0055] Specifically, the box body 1 includes a panel 2, a pair of side panels 3 and a bottom panel 4. The panel 2 is used for fixing and installing control components such as a drive board and a main control board.
[0056] The structure of the box 1 is as follows Figure 3 As shown, a pair of side panels 3 are located on either side of the panel 2, and a bottom panel 4 is located at the bottom ends of the panel 2 and side panels 3, with the bottom panel 4 positioned between the pair of side panels 3. Any adjacent pair of the panel 2, the pair of side panels 3, and the bottom panel 4 are connected to form a one-piece structure. By making the panel 2, side panels 3, and bottom panel 4 an integrated structure, there are no gaps between them, resulting in better sealing and waterproofing.
[0057] The cap 5 is arranged at the top of the box body 1, and the top of the panel 2 and the top of the pair of side panels 3 extend into the interior of the cap 5. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cover plate 6 is arranged on the side of the side plate 3 away from the panel 2, and the cover plate 6 is arranged facing the panel 2. The top end of the cover plate 6 is inserted into the inside of the cap 5, and the bottom end of the cover plate 6 is detachably connected to the box body 1.
[0058] With this arrangement, the housing 1, the cover plate 6, and the cap 5 form a structure with an internal cavity to protect the control components therein. The cap 5 seals the top of the cover plate 6 with the top of the housing 1. The top of the cover plate 6 and the top of the housing 1 are both inserted into the interior of the cap 5. The gaps between the cap 5 and the cover plate 6, as well as the gap between the cap 5 and the housing 1, are arranged downward. There are no upward gaps in the electric control box for the air conditioner outdoor unit, which can effectively prevent the leakage of rainwater, etc., effectively improve the waterproof effect, and solve the problem of poor waterproof effect of the electric control box for the air conditioner outdoor unit in the prior art.
[0059] It should be noted that the cap 5 is an integrally formed stretch-molded part, and there is no seam on the side wall of the cap 5. The box body 1 can be stamped by a stamping die, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency and sealing of the electric control box body for the air conditioner outdoor unit.
[0060] Each sidewall of the cap 5 is provided with a flattening edge 27 corresponding to one of the cover plates 6. This edge 27 is located inside the cap 5. This prevents scratches on the operator and the wiring harness, and prevents the cap 5 from tearing under stress, thereby improving the reliability of the cap 5. Furthermore, the flattening edge 27 ensures that rainwater flowing downward from the top of the cap 5 slides smoothly, preventing water from accumulating on the cap 5.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present invention, first bending portions 7 are provided at both ends of the cover plate 6, and the first bending portions 7 correspond to the side plates 3. Figure 6 When the cover plate 6 is connected to the box body 1, the first bent portions 7 at both ends of the cover plate 6 are respectively located on the side away from the pair of side panels 3, so that the two ends of the cover plate 6 are covered on the outside of the box body 1, which can enhance the protection of the side panels 3 of the box body 1.
[0062] In this embodiment, local protrusions 8 are formed on the cap 5 at two corner positions corresponding to the cover plate 6. Figure 4 From the top to the bottom of the box body 1, the projection area of the box body 1 is within the projection area of the cap 5. The local protrusion 8 increases the space at the corners of the cap 5, making the cap 5 compatible with the structure of the cover plate 6 and ensuring that the first bend 7 on the cover plate 6 can be inserted into the interior of the cap 5.
[0063] In the embodiment of the present invention, a second bending portion 9 is provided at the bottom end of the cover plate 6. Figure 6 As shown, the second bending portion 9 is located on the side of the bottom plate 4 away from the cover cap 5 , and the second bending portion 9 is set at an angle to the panel 2 , and the second bending portion 9 is set at an angle to the bottom plate 4 .
[0064] That is to say, the second bending portion 9 is tilted downward, so when rainwater flows downward along the cover plate 6, it can prevent rainwater from entering the gap between the bottom end of the cover plate 6 and the bottom end of the box body 1 due to the infiltration effect, thereby preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the box body 1.
[0065] In a specific embodiment, the included angle between the second bent portion 9 and the panel 2 can be 55 degrees, that is, the included angle between the second bent portion 9 and the bottom plate 4 can be 35 degrees.
[0066] In the embodiment of the present invention, a first plug-in structure is provided inside the cap 5 to be plugged with the top end of the cover plate 6 .
[0067] Specifically, a stopper 10 is provided inside the cap 5, and the stopper 10 can be fixedly connected to the cap 5 by welding. There is a gap between the stopper 10 and one of the side walls of the cap 5 corresponding to the cover plate 6, and the gap forms a space for the top end of the cover plate 6 to be inserted. In other words, the stopper 10 and one of the side walls of the cap 5 corresponding to the cover plate 6 constitute the first plug-in structure mentioned above, referring to FIG. Figure 5 After the top end of the cover plate 6 is inserted from bottom to top between the stopper 10 and the side wall of the cap 5, the interaction between the stopper 10 and the cover plate 6 and the interaction between the cover plate 6 and the side wall of the cap 5 can limit the position of the top end of the cover plate 6 along the distribution direction of the panel 2 and the cover plate 6 to prevent the cover plate 6 from being misplaced.
[0068] In a further embodiment, the bottom end of the cover plate 6 is detachably connected to the housing 1 via a first fastener 23. Specifically, at least two threaded holes are provided at the bottom end of the housing 1, and the cover plate 6 is provided with connection holes 11 corresponding to the threaded holes. The first fastener 23 comprises a screw or bolt, which can be used to fasten the cover plate 6 to the housing 1, thereby achieving a detachable connection between the cover plate 6 and the housing 1.
[0069] One of the connection holes 11 on the cover plate 6 is provided with an avoidance hole 12 on one side close to the top of the cover plate 6, and the avoidance hole 12 is connected to the connection hole 11. The size of the avoidance hole 12 is larger than that of the connection hole 11, and the avoidance hole 12 is located above the connection hole 11, referring to Figure 7 .
[0070] When it is necessary to remove the cover plate 6 from the box body 1, the first fastener 23 at the connection hole 11 where the avoidance hole 12 is not provided can be removed, and the first fastener 23 at the connection hole 11 where the avoidance hole 12 is provided can be loosened but not removed. Then, a downward force is applied to the cover plate 6 to slide the cover plate 6 downward relative to the box body 1, so that the cover plate 6 and the first plug-in structure on the cover cap 5 are disengaged. Then, the first fastener 23 is removed, and the cover plate 6 can be removed. In this way, during the process of disengaging the first plug-in structure of the cover plate 6 from the cover cap 5, the unremoved first fastener 23 can effectively prevent the cover plate 6 from accidentally sliding off, thereby avoiding accidental damage to the cover plate 6.
[0071] The edges of the side panels 3 and bottom panel 4 facing away from the front panel 2 are both provided with raised edges to facilitate engagement with the cover panel 6 and enhance the seal between the cover panel 6 and the housing 1. The threaded holes for engaging the first fasteners 23 are located on the raised edges connected to the side panels 3. The edges of the raised edges are provided with flattening edges 27 to prevent burrs on the housing 1 from injuring operators. Furthermore, the flattening edges 27 reinforce the housing 1, enhancing its overall strength.

[0074] The aforementioned lifting holes 14 are strip-shaped holes extending along the direction of the pair of side panels 3. At least two lifting holes 14 are provided, spaced apart along the direction of the pair of side panels 3. Lifting or hanging through at least two lifting holes 14 improves the stability of the air conditioner outdoor unit's electrical control box.
[0075] The hanging part 13 is provided with a fixing hole 15. After the electric control box of the air conditioner outdoor unit is hung on the frame of the air conditioner outdoor unit, the hanging part 13 can be fixedly connected to the frame of the air conditioner outdoor unit at the fixing hole 15 using screws or bolts.
[0076] Flattening edges 27 are provided on the edge of the hanging part 13 away from the box body 1 and the edge of the lifting hole 14. The setting of the flattening edges 27 can prevent the burrs on the cutting edges of the hanging part 13 from scratching the operator. Moreover, the flattening edges 27 have a reinforcing effect on the hanging part 13, avoiding the problem of strength failure such as tearing of the hanging part 13.
