[0031] A U-shaped guide groove 3 is provided on the lower inner wall of the water tray body 1;

[0032] The outlet 4 is fixedly connected to the side end of the water tray body 1 and matches the U-shaped guide groove 3;

[0033] The anti-splashing mechanism includes a mounting seat 7, an anti-splashing guide plate 8, a guide groove 9 and a clamping assembly. The mounting seat 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water tray body 1, and the anti-splashing guide plate 8 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 7 through a rotating shaft. The guide groove 9 is opened at the side end of the anti-splashing guide plate 8, and the clamping assembly is arranged between the water tray body 1 and the anti-splashing guide plate 8 to realize the fixation of the anti-splashing guide plate 8.

[0034] In the specific embodiment of the present invention, the water pan body 1 is the primary load-bearing structure of the entire device, used to collect and direct air conditioning condensate. Its shape and size are designed based on the actual application scenario to ensure sufficient condensate capacity and efficient water discharge through the U-shaped guide groove 3 and outlet 4. A T-shaped bracket 2 is fixedly attached to the water pan body 1 and supports the drainage piping and other related components of the air conditioning system. This provides a stable support point, ensuring that components such as the drainage piping are not easily displaced while also maintaining the normal flow of water within the water pan. The U-shaped guide groove 3, defined on the lower inner wall of the water pan body 1, guides water toward the outlet, preventing vortices from forming within the water pan and causing splashing. The U-shaped design helps slow the water flow, reducing the possibility of splashing, while ensuring a smooth flow toward the outlet 4. The outlet 4 is fixedly attached to the side of the water pan body 1 and aligns with the U-shaped guide groove 3, ensuring smooth water discharge. Its shape and position, designed to match the U-shaped guide groove 3, ensure a smooth and stable flow of water out of the water pan body 1. The mounting base 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the water tray body 1 and is used to fix the anti-splash water guide plate 8. The anti-splash water guide plate 8 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 7 via a rotating shaft, and the angle can be adjusted according to actual conditions to better guide the water flow and prevent splashing. The guide groove 9 is opened at the side end of the anti-splash water guide plate 8 to further guide the water flow and ensure that the water flows along the expected path. The snap-fit assembly is arranged between the water tray body 1 and the anti-splash water guide plate 8 to fix the anti-splash water guide plate 8 and ensure that it does not move easily during use. The snap-fit assembly is used to fix the anti-splash water guide plate 8 and ensure that it remains stable during use. The anti-splash water guide plate 8 can be quickly installed and disassembled through components such as the snap-fit groove 6, the mounting groove 10, the spring 11 and the protrusion 12, which is convenient for maintenance and adjustment.

[0035] For details, please refer to Figure 1-3 The card connection assembly includes a card slot 6, a mounting slot 10, a spring 11 and a protrusion 12. The card slot 6 is opened at the upper end of the water tray body 1, the mounting slot 10 is opened at the lower end of the splash-proof guide plate 8, the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the mounting slot 10, and the protrusion 12 is fixedly connected to the side end of the spring 11. The protrusion 12 is movably connected to the card slot 6.

[0036] In this embodiment, a slot 6 is provided at the upper end of the water tray body 1, engaging with a protrusion 12 to secure the anti-splash guide 8. A mounting slot 10 is provided at the lower end of the anti-splash guide 8 to accommodate a spring 11 and protrusion 12. The spring 11 is fixedly connected to the mounting slot 10, providing a spring force that causes the protrusion 12 to extend outward, thereby engaging with the slot 6. The protrusion 12 is fixedly connected to the side of the spring 11. When the anti-splash guide 8 moves downward and contacts the water tray body 1, the spring 11 forces the protrusion 12 to engage with the slot 6, thereby securing the anti-splash guide 8. To install the anti-splash guide 8, first align the anti-splash guide 8 with the mounting seat 7 on the water tray body 1 and rotate it along the axis until it contacts the water tray body 1. As the anti-splash guide 8 moves downward, the spring 11 forces the protrusion 12 to extend outward until it aligns with the slot 6 and engages. In this way, the anti-splash water guide plate 8 is fixed on the water tray body 1.

[0037] When the anti-splash water guide plate 8 needs to be removed, it can be moved upward by applying external force, or the protrusion 12 can be directly pressed to retract it into the installation groove 10, thereby releasing the engagement with the slot 6. Once the protrusion 12 is released from the slot 6, the anti-splash water guide plate 8 can be freely rotated or removed. The elastic engagement mechanism of the spring 11 and the protrusion 12 makes the installation and removal of the anti-splash water guide plate 8 simple and quick. The spring 11 provides sufficient elastic force to ensure that the protrusion 12 can be firmly engaged with the slot 6, preventing the anti-splash water guide plate 8 from accidentally falling off during use. Since the anti-splash water guide plate 8 can be rotated by the shaft, its angle can be adjusted according to actual conditions to adapt to different application scenarios.

[0038] For details, please refer to Figure 1-3 The lower end of the water tray body 1 is fixedly connected to a base 5.

[0039] In this embodiment, the base 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the water pan body 1 to enhance the overall stability of the water pan and, in some cases, also provide support and positioning. The base 5, through its fixed connection to the water pan body 1, increases the stability of the entire device. In particular, when the water pan body 1 is subjected to external forces, the base 5 effectively dissipates these forces, reducing the possibility of the water pan body 1 tilting or moving. The base 5 can be designed with a specific shape to better adapt to the installation environment. For example, in a rack-mounted air conditioning system, the base 5 can be designed to match the bottom of the rack to better support the water pan body 1 and ensure its correct installation position. The presence of the base 5 makes it easier to install the water pan body 1 in the desired position, especially when the position of the water pan body 1 needs to be adjusted, as the base 5 provides better support and stability.

[0040] For details, please refer to Figure 1-3 , the height of the water tray body 1 is 5 cm.

[0041] In this embodiment, the height of the water pan body 1 is 5 cm. This design takes into account the amount of condensed water that needs to be collected in actual applications and the total volume of the water pan. The 5 cm height provides sufficient space to accommodate a certain amount of condensed water while also ensuring that the water pan body 1 does not take up too much space.

[0042] For details, please refer to Figure 1-3 , the length of outlet 4 is 2 cm.

[0043] In this embodiment, the outlet 4 is fixedly connected to the side end of the water tray body 1 and is used to discharge the condensed water in the water tray body 1 .

[0044] For details, please refer to Figure 1-3 , the depth of the U-shaped guide groove 3 is 1 cm.

[0045] In this embodiment, a U-shaped guide groove 3 is formed on the lower inner wall of the water tray body 1 to guide the condensed water toward the outlet, preventing the water from forming vortices inside the water tray and splashing out. A depth of 1 cm helps slow the water flow, reducing the possibility of splashing, while ensuring a smooth flow toward the outlet 4.

[0046] The working principle and usage process of the utility model: First, confirm that the water tray body 1, T-shaped frame 2, U-shaped guide groove 3, outlet 4, mounting seat 7, anti-splash water guide plate 8, guide groove 9 and snap-on assembly and other components are complete and undamaged. If necessary, first fix the base 5 to the lower end of the water tray body 1. Place the water tray body 1 in a predetermined position to ensure that it is stable. Fix the T-shaped frame 2 to the inside of the water tray body 1 to support the drainage pipe. Fix the mounting seat 7 to the upper end of the water tray body 1. Rotate the anti-splash water guide plate 8 to the mounting seat 7 via a rotating shaft. Adjust the angle of the anti-splash water guide plate 8 so that it contacts the water tray body 1. Make sure that the protrusion 12 is aligned with the card slot 6. The elastic force provided by the spring 11 makes the protrusion 12 movably snap-fit with the card slot 6, thereby fixing the anti-splash water guide plate 8.
