Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of electrical appliance technology, and specifically relates to an air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] An air conditioner, or air conditioner, is a device that manually adjusts and controls the temperature, humidity, flow rate, and other parameters of the ambient air within a building or structure. The air conditioner contains a fan assembly, whose driver drives the impeller. To support the driver, a support frame is installed inside the air conditioner.
[0003] However, in the prior art, the structural strength of the support frame cannot meet the requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides an air conditioner, which aims to at least to a certain extent solve the technical problem that the structural strength of the support frame cannot meet the requirements.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is:
[0006] An air conditioner is special in that it includes: a driver; a support frame with a receiving groove for receiving the driver; wherein the cross-sectional area of the support frame gradually decreases along the direction from the opening of the receiving groove to the bottom wall of the receiving groove.
[0007] Since the support frame is provided with a receiving slot for accommodating the driver, the receiving slot accommodates the driver and provides installation space for the driver, which can maximize the use of the space inside the support frame and avoid the driver occupying additional space or requiring additional fixing structures during installation, thereby improving the compactness and space efficiency of the overall design. The installer only needs to align the driver with the receiving slot and fix it, without the need for complicated positioning and calibration processes, reducing the difficulty and cost of installation. Since the cross-sectional area of the support frame gradually decreases from the opening of the receiving slot to the bottom wall of the receiving slot, the support frame can form a gradient structure in the direction from the opening of the receiving slot to the bottom wall of the receiving slot. When the support frame is subjected to external loads, the gradient structure can gradually disperse the stress from the top of the support frame to the bottom, thereby reducing the risk of stress concentration and being able to more effectively Disperse stress. At the opening of the receiving groove, the larger cross-sectional area provides higher bending and torsional rigidity, effectively resisting the initial concentrated stress. As the stress is transmitted to the bottom wall of the receiving groove, the gradual reduction in the cross-sectional area of the support frame 20 can make the support frame have good stress resistance, ensure the structural strength of the support frame, and make the support frame have good stability and pressure resistance. Moreover, when the air conditioner is running, the area of the support frame exposed to the wind can be reduced, and the surface area in contact with the support frame during air flow is also reduced accordingly, thereby reducing wind resistance, reducing the obstacles encountered by the air when flowing through the support frame, and flowing more smoothly, ensuring the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, reducing the noise source caused by air turbulence and eddy currents, and reducing the noise during the operation of the air conditioner. At the same time, the amount of material used in the support frame can be reduced, reducing costs, and reducing the weight of the support frame.

[0055] The present application is described below with reference to specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0056] The air conditioner provided in this embodiment is intended to at least to some extent resolve the technical problem that the structural strength of the support frame cannot meet the requirements.
[0057] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an air conditioner according to some embodiments; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Assembly diagram of the motor bracket of the air conditioner; Figure 3 for Figure 2 AA section view. Combined Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The air conditioner of the embodiment of the present application includes: a driver 10 and a support frame 20. The support frame 20 defines a receiving slot 201 for receiving the driver 10. The cross-sectional area of the support frame 20 gradually decreases from the opening of the receiving slot 201 toward the bottom wall of the receiving slot 201.
[0058] Since the support frame 20 is provided with a receiving slot 201 for accommodating the driver 10, the receiving slot 201 accommodates the driver 10 and provides installation space for the driver 10, which can maximize the use of the space inside the support frame 20 and avoid the driver 10 occupying additional space or requiring additional fixing structures during the installation process, thereby improving the compactness and space efficiency of the overall design. The installer only needs to align the driver 10 with the receiving slot 201 and fix it, without the need for complicated positioning and calibration processes, reducing the difficulty and cost of installation. Since the cross-sectional area of the support frame 20 gradually decreases from the opening of the receiving slot 201 to the bottom wall of the receiving slot 201, the support frame 20 can form a gradient structure in the direction from the opening of the receiving slot 201 to the bottom wall of the receiving slot 201. When the support frame 20 is subjected to external loads, the gradient structure can gradually disperse the stress from the top of the support frame 20 to the bottom, thereby reducing stress concentration. The risk in the accommodating groove 201 can be more effectively dispersed. At the opening of the accommodating groove 201, the larger cross-sectional area provides higher bending and torsional rigidity, effectively resisting the initial concentrated stress. As the stress is transmitted to the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 201, the gradual reduction of the cross-sectional area of the support frame 20 can make the support frame 20 have good stress resistance, ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20, and make the support frame 20 have good stability and pressure resistance. Moreover, when the air conditioner is running, the area of the support frame 20 exposed to the wind can be reduced, and the surface area of the air contacting the support frame 20 during the flow is also reduced accordingly, thereby reducing wind resistance, reducing the obstacles encountered by the air when flowing through the support frame 20, and flowing more smoothly, ensuring the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, reducing the noise source caused by air turbulence and eddy currents, and reducing the noise during the operation of the air conditioner. At the same time, the amount of material used in the support frame 20 can be reduced, reducing costs, and reducing the weight of the support frame 20.
[0059] In some embodiments, in order to ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20, the cross-sectional shape of the support frame 20 along the axial direction of the driver 10 can be triangular or trapezoidal, that is, the support frame 20 can be a frustum, cone, trihedron, tetrahedron or prism.
[0060] In some embodiments, along the axial direction of the driver 10, when the cross-sectional shape of the support frame 20 is a triangle, the three vertices of the support frame 20 can support each other to form a stable frame, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the support frame 20, so that the support frame 20 can more effectively bear the weight of the driver 10 and possible vibrations and impact forces, thereby ensuring stable operation of the driver. Moreover, the support frame 20 has a uniform stress distribution characteristic, which reduces the risk of stress concentration, further ensuring the structural strength of the support frame 20. The triangular cross-sectional shape not only enhances the vertical stability of the support frame 20 (i.e., the ability to resist external forces from the opening of the accommodating groove 201 toward the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 201), but also improves its horizontal stability (i.e., the ability to resist axial wind pressure or vibration of the driver 10), thereby ensuring the stability of the operation of the driver 10. At the same time, the triangular cross-sectional shape is relatively simple and easy to implement in the design and manufacturing process. It does not require complex molds or processing equipment, thereby reducing production costs and cycles.
[0061] In some embodiments, along the axial direction of the driver 10, when the cross-sectional shape of the support frame 20 is a trapezoid, along the direction from the opening of the accommodating groove 201 to the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 201, the support frame 20 is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Since the top of the support frame 20 is wider, it can more effectively disperse the weight and vibration from the driver 10, reduce stress concentration, and ensure the structural strength of the support frame. Moreover, when subjected to external force, the support frame 20 can guide the stress to gradually transition from the wider part at the top to the narrower part at the bottom, reducing the risk of damage caused by stress concentration. The smooth stress transition makes the support frame 20 more reliable in long-term use, further ensuring the structural strength of the support frame 20.
[0062] In some embodiments, along the axial direction of the driver 10, the cross-sectional shape of the support frame 20 can be triangular or trapezoidal, so that compared with the support member with a rectangular or circular cross-section of the same width, the support frame 20 is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom along the direction from the opening of the accommodating groove 201 to the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 201 while maintaining the same load-bearing capacity. This can reduce the use of materials and reduce costs.
[0063] In some embodiments, along the axial direction of the driver 10, the cross-sectional shape of the support frame 20 can be triangular or trapezoidal. The area of the triangular and trapezoidal cross-sectional shapes in vertical projection is usually smaller than that of the square cross-sectional shape of the same height. Under the same conditions, the support frame 20 with a triangular or trapezoidal cross-sectional shape can occupy a smaller ground or installation space, which can reduce the space occupied by the support frame 20. At the same time, when the air conditioner is running, the area of the support frame 20 exposed to the wind is also reduced, and the surface area of the air in contact with the support frame 20 during flow is also reduced accordingly, thereby reducing wind resistance, so that the air encounters less obstacles when flowing through the support frame 20, and flows more smoothly, thereby ensuring the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, reducing the noise sources generated by air turbulence and eddy currents, and reducing the noise during operation of the air conditioner.
[0064] Figure 4 for Figure 1 Assembly diagram of the driver of the air conditioner; Figure 9 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the support frame of the air conditioner. Figure 4 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, to further ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20, the air conditioner further includes a first reinforcement member 30. The first reinforcement member 30 is connected to the support frame 20 and is located outside the receiving groove 201. The first reinforcement member 30 can serve as an additional support structure for the support frame 20, effectively limiting the deformation of the support frame 20 when subjected to external forces, thereby improving the rigidity of the support frame 20, maintaining the shape and stability of the support frame 20, and improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the support frame 20. Moreover, the first reinforcement member 30 can disperse stress concentration points and distribute stress more evenly throughout the support frame 20, thereby reducing the risk of damage caused by stress concentration and extending the service life of the support frame 20. This means that the support frame can maintain its performance for a longer period of time, reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement. The first reinforcement member 30 is integrally formed with the support frame 20, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing production costs, and improving the integrity and consistency of the product.
[0065] In some embodiments, since the driver 10 is installed in the accommodating slot 201 along the direction of the opening of the accommodating slot 201 toward the bottom wall of the accommodating slot 201, the first reinforcement 30 extends along the direction of the opening of the accommodating slot 201 toward the bottom wall of the accommodating slot 201, which can ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20 along the direction of the opening of the accommodating slot 201 toward the bottom wall of the accommodating slot 201. The first reinforcement 30 can more directly support the weight and impact force of the driver 10, reduce the energy loss and decreased support efficiency caused by the excessively long support path, and further ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20.
[0066] In some embodiments, the number of first reinforcement members 30 can be multiple, and multiple first reinforcement members 30 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, so that the support frame 20 is supported and reinforced in multiple ways, further improving the overall structural strength of the support frame 20. Moreover, each first reinforcement member 30 can share part of the stress, thereby reducing stress concentration, and making the stress distribution on the support frame 20 more uniform, thereby improving the bearing capacity and durability of the support frame 20.
[0067] Figure 5 for Figure 4 A top view of Figure 10 for Figure 7 Combined with the top view of Figure 5 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, to achieve shock absorption, the driver 10 is provided with a shock absorber 40. The support frame 20 is provided with a mounting slot 202 that communicates with the receiving slot 201. The shock absorber 40 is embedded in the mounting slot 202. The mounting slot 202 provides installation space for the shock absorber 40, maximizing the use of the space within the support frame 20. This prevents the shock absorber 40 from occupying additional space or requiring additional fixing structures during installation, thereby improving the compactness and space efficiency of the overall design. The installer only needs to align the shock absorber 40 with the mounting slot 202 and secure it, eliminating the need for complex positioning and calibration processes, thereby reducing installation difficulty and cost. The shock absorber 40 can be made of a flexible material such as rubber or plastic.
[0068] In some embodiments, the shock absorber 40 can absorb and alleviate the vibration generated by the driver 10 during operation. The shock absorber 40 can effectively absorb and alleviate vibrations through its elastic or damping characteristics, reduce the vibration amplitude and frequency, reduce the noise level when the driver 10 is running, and improve the quietness and comfort of the equipment. Moreover, the presence of the shock absorber 40 can reduce the direct impact and friction between the driver 10 and the support frame 20, thereby reducing wear and fatigue damage to the equipment, which can extend the service life of the driver 10 and reduce maintenance costs and replacement frequency.
[0069] Combine Figure 5 and Figure 10In some embodiments, in order to further ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20, a second reinforcement 50 is provided at the end of the mounting groove 202 away from the accommodating groove 201, and the second reinforcement 50 is connected to the support frame 20, that is, the second reinforcement 50 can be a side wall on one side of the mounting groove 202, which can increase the rigidity and bearing capacity of the mounting groove 202 area. When installing and fixing the shock absorber 40 and the driver 10, the mounting groove 202 can better resist various forces and moments from the operation of the driver 10, reduce the risk of deformation and damage, and improve the structural strength. Moreover, when the driver 10 generates vibration or impact force during operation, these forces first act on the shock absorber 40 and are transmitted to the support frame 20 through the mounting groove 202. The presence of the second reinforcement 50 helps to disperse the force to a wider area, reduce local stress concentration, and thus improve the strength and stability of the entire support frame 20. The second reinforcement member 50 is integrally formed with the support frame 20 , which simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces production costs, and improves the integrity and consistency of the product. The second reinforcement member 50 is provided with a through hole 503 for the shaft to pass through.
[0070] In some embodiments, since the second reinforcement 50 enhances the structural strength of the mounting slot 202 and reduces wear and fatigue damage caused by vibration and impact, the service life of the support frame 20 can be extended, and the cost and inconvenience caused by frequent replacement and maintenance can be reduced. Moreover, the second reinforcement 50, as a part of the support frame 20, is tightly combined with the main body of the support frame 20 to form a stable structural system, improve rigidity, reduce shaking and offset caused by vibration and impact, and ensure stable operation of the system.
[0071] Combine Figure 4 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, to further ensure the structural strength of the support frame 20, the second reinforcement member 50 includes a first reinforcement portion 502 and a second reinforcement portion 501. The first reinforcement portion 502 is arranged parallel to the support frame 20 and spaced apart. The second reinforcement portion 501 connects the first reinforcement portion 502 and the support frame 20 at an angle, giving the second reinforcement member 50 a double-layer structure. Through the dual functions of the first reinforcement portion 502 and the second reinforcement portion 501, the structural rigidity of the support frame 20 in the mounting slot 202 area is significantly improved, better resisting external loads and vibrations, reducing structural deformation, improving structural rigidity, more effectively transmitting and dissipating stress, and improving overall torsional and bending resistance. Furthermore, the through hole 503 can be provided in the first reinforcement portion 502.
[0072] In some embodiments, the angle between the second reinforcing portion 501 and the first reinforcing portion 502 can be an acute angle, an obtuse angle, or a right angle, and the angle between the second reinforcing portion 501 and the support frame 20 can be an acute angle, an obtuse angle, or a right angle.
[0073] Figure 7 for Figure 4 Assembly diagram of the middle vibration damper; Figure 8 for Figure 7 Side view of the combined Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, to ensure the stability of the shock absorber 40 during installation, the shock absorber 40 is provided with a limiting groove 401. The air conditioner further includes a limiting member 60. The limiting member 60 is connected to the support frame 20 and disposed within the installation groove 202. The limiting member 60 can be embedded within the limiting groove 401, which can be annular. The limiting member 60 is integrally formed with the support frame 20, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing production costs, and improving product integrity and consistency.
[0074] In some embodiments, the limiting member 60 cooperates with the groove wall of the limiting groove 401 to provide precise constraints for the position of the shock absorber 40 in the installation groove 202 to avoid axial movement of the shock absorber 40 along the driver 10, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the shock absorber 40 after installation and avoiding performance degradation due to position offset or looseness. Moreover, when the shock absorber 40 is installed in the installation groove 202, the shock absorber 40 can be positioned to ensure that the shock absorber 40 is installed in place, thereby simplifying the installation process.
[0075] In some embodiments, to ensure the stability of the position limiting member 60 when installed in the position limiting groove 401, the position limiting member 60 has an interference fit with the bottom wall of the position limiting groove 401, and the position limiting member 60 has an interference fit with the side wall of the position limiting groove 401. The interference fit generates a tight bonding force between the position limiting member 60 and the bottom wall and side wall of the position limiting groove 401 through elastic deformation between the materials, thereby enhancing the installation stability of the shock absorber 40 on the support frame 20, reducing the risk of loosening or falling off due to vibration or impact, limiting the relative movement of the shock absorber 40 in the installation groove 202, and ensuring that it maintains a stable position and posture during operation. Among them, the interference fit range between the position limiting member 60 and the bottom wall of the position limiting groove 401 is 0mm to 1mm, and the interference fit between the position limiting member 60 and the side wall of the position limiting groove 401 is 0.5mm to 2.5mm.
[0076] In some embodiments, the limiting member 60 is interference fit with the bottom wall and side wall of the limiting groove 401, which can reduce the relative movement between the shock absorber 40 and the support frame 20, thereby reducing the performance degradation caused by friction and wear, extending the service life of the shock absorber 40 and the support frame 20, and improving the overall durability of the system. Moreover, under the action of vibration or impact, the shock absorber 40 can maintain a stable position and posture, effectively absorb and disperse energy, and reduce the vibration and impact transmitted to the support frame 20.
[0077] Combine Figure 7 In some embodiments, in order to further ensure the stability of the installation of the shock absorber 40, the shock absorber 40 is provided with a positioning member 402, and the support frame 20 is provided with a positioning groove 203 connected to the installation groove 202. The positioning member 402 can be embedded in the positioning groove 203. The fitting relationship between the positioning member 402 and the positioning groove 203 provides a clear rotation stop point for the shock absorber 40. During the installation process, the positioning member 402 is guided and embedded in the positioning groove 203, thereby effectively limiting the rotational freedom of the shock absorber 40 and ensuring that the shock absorber 40 can maintain a stable posture after installation. It will not rotate due to external factors. The engagement of the positioning member 402 and the positioning groove 203 provides additional stability for the installation of the shock absorber. Double locking is achieved under the condition of cooperation between the limit groove 401 and the limit member 60, so that the position of the shock absorber 40 in the installation groove 202 is more stable and reliable, reducing the risk of loosening due to vibration or impact. Moreover, when installing the shock absorber 40, the installer only needs to align the positioning member 402 with the positioning groove 203 and gently push it in to achieve a stable installation. There is no need for complicated adjustment or fixing steps, which reduces the difficulty of installation and improves installation efficiency.
[0078] Figure 12 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the assembly of the middle support frame and the chassis. Figure 12 In some embodiments, in order to further ensure the stability of the support frame 20 supporting the driver 10, the air conditioner also includes a shell 70, and the chassis 701 of the shell 70 is connected to the bottom of the accommodating groove 201, so that the support frame 20 and the chassis 701 form a stable overall structure. The support frame 20 is supported by the chassis 701, and the support frame 20 can transfer part of the gravity of the driver 10 to the chassis 701, so that the support frame 20 can better carry the driver 10. Moreover, during the operation of the driver 10, the driver 10 will generate vibrations. By tightly connecting the chassis 701 and the support frame 20, the stress generated by these vibrations can be effectively dispersed, thereby reducing damage to the support frame 20 and ensuring the service life of the support frame 20.
[0079] Figure 6 for Figure 4 Bottom view of Figure 11 for Figure 7Bottom view of . Combined Figure 6 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the connection between the support frame 20 and the chassis 701, the support frame 20 is provided with a mounting opening 204 connected to the receiving groove 201, and the mounting opening 204 is set at an angle to the chassis 701.
[0080] In some embodiments, when connecting the support frame 20 and the chassis 701 via a connecting member, the connecting member can be inserted into the receiving groove 201 through the installation opening 204 and placed in the installation position. Then, an installation tool is inserted into the receiving groove 201 through the installation opening 204 to operate the connecting member to achieve the connection between the support frame 20 and the chassis 701. This facilitates operation, reduces operational difficulty, and improves installation efficiency. The connecting member can be a bolt, a screw, or a connecting pin.
[0081] Combine Figure 5 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, to facilitate cable routing, the support frame 20 is provided with a cable outlet 205 connected to the receiving slot 201 and a cable routing buckle 206. The air conditioner further includes a cable 80. One end of the cable 80 is electrically connected to the driver 10, and the other end is sequentially passed through the cable outlet 205 and the cable routing buckle 206. This ensures that the cables are routed neatly within the device, avoiding a chaotic entanglement of cables. This not only improves the overall aesthetics of the device but also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair.
[0082] In some embodiments, in order to ensure the safety of the driver 10, the connection between the cable 80 and the driver 10 and the wiring buckle 206 are both higher than the outlet 205 to form a return bend structure. The position of the cable 80 at the outlet 205 is the lowest point of the cable 80. When the air conditioner is cooling, if condensation water appears on the cable 80, under the action of gravity, the condensation water will flow to the lowest point of the cable 80 to prevent the condensation water from flowing to the driver 10, avoiding short circuits, insulation damage, etc. in the driver 10, and ensuring the safety of the driver 10.
[0083] Combine Figure 5 and Figure 10In some embodiments, in order to facilitate wiring, the air conditioner further includes: a wire fastener 90. The wire fastener 90 is connected to the support frame 20 and is located at the wire outlet 205. Among them, the cable 80 is sequentially passed through the outlet 205, the wire fixing buckle 90 and the wiring buckle 206. The cable 80 first passes through the outlet 205. The outlet 205 provides preliminary guidance and positioning for the cable 80. Then, the cable is more firmly fixed through the wire fixing buckle 90. The outlet 205 and the wire fixing buckle 90 realize double fixation of the cable 80, which improves the stability of the cable 80 inside the device and reduces the risk of the cable loosening or falling off due to vibration or movement. Moreover, the wire fixing buckle 90 can fit tightly to the cable 80 and provide a certain clamping force, thereby enhancing the tensile strength of the cable 80. Even under the action of external force, the cable 80 can maintain its position unchanged, ensuring the reliability of the electrical connection and preventing the cable 80 from being caught in the fan of the air conditioner. Moreover, through the guidance of the wire fixing buckle 90 and the wiring buckle 206, the cable 80 can be arranged in an orderly and neat manner inside the device.
[0084] In some embodiments, the cable fixing buckle 90, the cable routing buckle 206 and the support frame 20 are integrally formed, which simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces production costs, and improves the integrity and consistency of the product.
[0085] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, to ensure the stability of the driver 10 when mounted on the support frame 20, the air conditioner further includes a cover 100. The cover 100 is detachably connected to the support frame 20 and is pressed against the driver 10. One end of the cover 100 can be snap-engaged with the support frame 20, and the other end can be locked to the support frame 20.
[0086] In some embodiments, when the driver 10 is to be installed, the driver 10 is placed in the accommodating groove 201, and then one end of the cover body 100 can be snapped into engagement with the support frame 20, which can serve as a pre-positioning assembly. When the cover body 100 is locked on the support frame 20, there is no need to hold the cover body 100 by hand, thereby improving the installation efficiency. At this time, the cover body 100 is pressed onto the driver 10 to prevent the driver 10 from falling from the support frame 20, thereby ensuring the stability of the driver 10 installed on the support frame 20.
[0087] Since the cover 100 and the support frame 20 are generally made of plastic, thread slippage is likely to occur when the cover 100 and the support frame 20 are connected via the locking member 120. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5In some embodiments, to ensure the stability of the connection between the cover 100 and the support frame 20, the air conditioner further includes: an insert 110 and a locking member 120. The insert 110 is disposed on the support frame 20. The locking member 120 is disposed through the cover 100 and connected to the insert 110. The connection between the locking member 120 and the insert 110 can prevent thread slippage, make the engagement force between the locking member 120 and the insert 110 more concentrated and effective, and ensure that the locking member 120 and the insert 110 remain in a fastened state for a long time. The insert 110 is made of metal, and the locking member 120 can be a bolt, screw, or connecting pin.
[0088] Combine Figure 6 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, in order to achieve heat dissipation of the driver 10, heat dissipation holes 207 are opened on the two opposite side walls of the receiving slot 201. The heat dissipation holes 207 are connected to the receiving slot 201. The opening of the heat dissipation holes 207 directly increases the contact area between the receiving slot 201 and the external environment, so that the heat of the driver 10 can be dissipated into the air through the heat dissipation holes 207, thereby accelerating the heat transfer speed and improving the heat dissipation efficiency. Moreover, the heat dissipation holes 207 on the two side walls of the receiving slot 201 are arranged relative to each other, so that the air inside the receiving slot 201 can effectively exchange convection with the external air, further accelerating the heat dissipation and ensuring the safety of the driver 10.
[0089] Combine Figure 11 In some embodiments, to further enhance the structural strength of the support frame 20, the air conditioner further comprises a third reinforcement member 130 and a fourth reinforcement member 140. The third reinforcement member 130 is disposed around the edge of the support frame 20. As a reinforcement structure surrounding the edge of the support frame 20, the third reinforcement member 130 can significantly enhance the lateral and torsional rigidity of the support frame 20, making the support frame 20 more stable and less susceptible to deformation or distortion when subjected to external forces. This ensures the structural strength of the support frame 20 and disperses the generated stress concentration points over a larger area, thereby reducing the risk of damage caused by excessive local stress. The fourth reinforcement member 140 is connected to the third reinforcement member 130 and the support frame 20. The third and fourth reinforcement members 130 and 140 work together to increase the load-bearing area of the support frame 20. This allows each part of the support frame 20 to bear the same load more evenly, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity of the support frame 20. Furthermore, the fourth reinforcement member 140 can guide the load to be transferred to other parts of the support frame 20 in a more optimized manner, thereby further improving the load-bearing efficiency and stability of the support frame 20. This can reduce fatigue damage caused by factors such as vibration and impact during long-term use of the support frame 20, and extend the service life of the support frame 20 by dispersing stress and improving rigidity. The third and fourth reinforcement members 130 and 140 are integrally formed with the support frame 20, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing production costs, and improving the integrity and consistency of the product.
[0090] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, in order to support the support frame 20, the air conditioner also includes an intermediate partition 150. The support frame 20 and the intermediate partition 150 are integrally formed, and the support frame 20 is integrated into the intermediate partition 150. That is, the intermediate partition 150 has a driver mounting position, and there is no need to install the support frame in the shell of the air conditioner, which reduces assembly actions and improves production efficiency. Moreover, a seamless connection between the intermediate partition 150 and the support frame 20 can be achieved, which enhances structural strength and improves product stability and durability. Moreover, during the manufacturing process, the position of the support frame 20 on the intermediate partition 150 can be accurately fixed, which can eliminate installation errors that may occur in subsequent assembly processes, ensure precise matching between components, and thus improve the overall performance and reliability of the product. At the same time, the one-piece molding design simplifies the structure formed by the intermediate partition 150 and the support frame 20 into an integral component. During the production process, the manufacturing, storage, transportation and assembly costs of multiple components can be saved. The reduction in the number of components directly reduces the complexity and management difficulty of the production process, thereby reducing the overall cost.
[0091] In some embodiments, the intermediate partition 150 and support frame 20 can be injection molded, allowing multiple steps to be completed in a single operation, reducing production cycle time and manual intervention. Furthermore, by eliminating the need for assembly steps between the intermediate partition 150 and support frame 20, assembly line errors and rework rates are reduced, further improving production efficiency and product quality.
[0092] Combine Figure 3 In some embodiments, the distance between the support frame 20 and the middle partition 150 gradually increases along the direction from the opening of the accommodating groove 201 to the bottom wall of the accommodating groove 201, so that the wind can pass through the distance between the support frame 20 and the middle partition 150, thereby reducing the wind resistance. As a result, the air encounters less obstacles when flowing through the support frame 20, and the flow is smoother, thereby ensuring the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, reducing the noise source caused by air turbulence and eddy currents, and reducing the noise during the operation of the air conditioner.
