[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0031] The present application provides a wire assembly structure, a housing and an air conditioner to solve the problem in related technologies that when the wire needs to pass through a plate structure, a through hole is usually opened on the plate structure. The through hole can provide a routing channel for the wire, but the through hole will affect the sealing of the plate structure, and water vapor can easily enter the electrical equipment through the through hole, causing damage to the electronic device.

[0032] In a first aspect, the present application provides a wire assembly structure 10, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the wire assembly structure 10 is used to be installed on a housing 20 (such as Figure 6 ) on the plate body 21, the plate body 21 is provided with a wire hole 211 for the wire 12 to pass through, and the number of the wire holes 211 can be 1, 2 or more; the shell 20 can be the shell of an air-conditioning outdoor unit, an electric control box, a refrigerator, a dishwasher or other electrical equipment, the plate body 21 is a plate-like structure in the shell 20, and the wire hole 211 is a through hole on the plate body 21 for the wire 12 to pass through, so as to provide a wiring channel for the wire 12. The wire hole 211 constrains the wire 12, which can prevent the wire 12 from escaping from the shell 20, and can also prevent the wire 12 from being entangled with other components in the electrical equipment.

[0033] Specifically, the wire assembly structure 10 includes a seal 11 and at least one wire 12. The seal 11 is used to be installed at the wire hole 211 to seal the wire hole 211; the wire 12 is passed through the seal 11, and the insulating shell of the wire 12 is integrally formed with the seal 11. The wire 12 can be a power cord, a data transmission line or other types of conductive wires; the wire 12 can be a flat wire or a round wire, and the diameter and length of the wire 12 can be selected according to actual needs; the insulating shell and seal 11 of the wire 12 can be made of flame-retardant rubber or PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and other materials, and the seal 11 can be integrally injection molded with the insulating shell of the wire 12.

[0034] It can be understood that in the present application, when installing the wire 12, the installation of the wire 12 can be achieved by assembling the seal 11 at the wire hole 211. The installation of the wire 12 is more convenient and quick, and the fixation is reliable. The seal 11 can seal the wire hole 211, and can ensure the sealing of the wire hole 211, thereby preventing water vapor from entering the electrical equipment through the wire hole 211 and causing damage to the electronic device. In addition, since the seal 11 and the insulating shell of the wire 12 are integrally formed, the step of passing the wire 12 through the seal 11 is eliminated, which can improve the assembly efficiency. Since there is no need to open an opening on the seal 11 for the wire 12 to pass through, the sealing of the connection between the seal 11 and the wire 12 can be improved, and the sealing performance of the seal 11 can be further improved.

[0035] In some embodiments, a slot 111 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the seal 11. The slot 111 extends along the circumference of the seal 11 and is used to receive the portion of the plate body 21 forming the wire hole 211. It is understood that when the seal 11 is installed at the wire hole 211, the portion of the plate body 21 forming the wire hole 211 can be inserted into the slot 111, thereby fixing the seal 11 at the wire hole 211. The installation and fixing of the seal 11 is relatively convenient and fast, and the tightness of the connection between the seal 11 and the plate body 21 can also be improved, thereby improving the sealing performance at the wire hole 211.

[0036] In some embodiments, the seal 11 includes a sealing portion 112 and an extension portion 113. The sealing portion 112 is used to be installed at the wire hole 211 to seal the wire hole 211. The extension portion 113 is located on one side of the sealing portion 112 along the axial direction of the wire hole 211 and is connected to the sealing portion 112. It is understandable that when the seal 11 is installed at the wire hole 211, the sealing portion 112 can be used to seal the wire hole 211. At the same time, the extension portion 113 protrudes outward from the wire hole 211 relative to the sealing portion 112. The installer can install and remove the seal 11 by holding the extension portion 113, making the assembly of the seal 11 more convenient.

[0037] In some embodiments, multiple wires 12 are provided, and the multiple wires 12 are arranged in parallel and at intervals. There can be 2, 3 or more wires 12, and multiple wires 12 can be installed at the same time through a seal 11, and the multiple wires 12 are spaced from each other to prevent short circuit of the multiple wires 12.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the wire hole 211 is provided at the edge of the plate body 21, and the wire hole 211 extends toward the edge of the plate body 21 to penetrate the first side surface 214 of the peripheral side surface of the plate body 21 to form an opening 211a. It is understandable that the wire hole 211 as a whole can be U-shaped or roughly U-shaped, and the groove bottom of the wire hole 211 (the wall surface on the side opposite to the opening 211a in the inner wall surface of the wire hole 211) can be semicircular, arched or flat. Compared with an annular hole (such as a circle or square) provided on the plate body 21, the U-shaped hole has a smaller opening area and has less influence on the structural strength of the plate body 21, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the plate body 21 and improving the stability of the plate body 21. In addition, the sealing member 11 can also enter and exit the wire hole 211 through the opening 211a, so as to Figure 4 Taking the perspective shown as an example, when assembling the seal 11, the seal 11 is moved downward and inserted into the wire hole 211 through the opening 211a, and then the part of the plate body 21 forming the wire hole 211 is inserted into the slot 111, so that the assembly of the seal 11 can be achieved, so that the seal 11 does not need to be assembled and fixed in the wire hole 211 by extrusion along the axial direction of the wire hole 211, thereby making the assembly of the seal 11 more convenient and quick.

[0039] Specifically, on a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the wire hole 211 , the projected shape of the seal 11 can be adapted to the shape of the wire hole 211 , which can improve the tightness of the connection between the seal 11 and the plate body 21 , thereby improving the sealing at the wire hole 211 .

[0040] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the wire hole 211 includes a main wall 212 and a guide slope 213. The guide slope 213 is located between the main wall 212 and the first side surface 214. The guide slope 213 extends from the main wall 212 toward the first side surface 214 and away from the main wall 212. Figure 4 For example, when assembling the seal 11, the seal 11 is moved downward and first contacts the guide slope 213. The guide slope 213 guides the seal 11 so that it can more smoothly enter the groove formed by the main wall 212. The guide slope 213 can be a flat surface or a curved surface.

[0041] In some embodiments, the side surface of the sealing member 11 close to the first side surface 214 is a plane. Figure 6 As shown, the side surface of the seal 11 close to the first side surface 214 is the first sealing surface 114, and the first sealing surface 114 is exposed from the opening 211a. The first sealing surface 114 is set to a plane, so that the first sealing surface 114 and the shell 20 can fit more tightly, thereby improving the sealing of the connection between the first sealing surface 114 and the shell 20.

[0042] Furthermore, the side surface of the seal 11 close to the first side surface 214 is flush with the first side surface 214, or the seal 11 protrudes from the opening 211a through the wire hole 211 to ensure that the opening 211a can also be sealed by the seal 11, while allowing the first sealing surface 114 to contact the shell 20, thereby improving the sealing of the connection between the first sealing surface 114 and the shell 20.

[0043] In the second aspect, based on the above-mentioned wire assembly structure 10, the present application further provides a housing 20, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the housing 20 includes a frame 22 , a plate 21 and a wire assembly structure 10 as in any one of the above embodiments.

[0044] Among them, the frame 22 has a accommodating cavity, the frame 22 can be made of metal material, and the frame 22 as a whole can be a rectangular parallelepiped, a cube, a cylinder or other shapes; the plate 21 is located in the accommodating cavity and is connected to the frame 22, the plate 21 divides the accommodating cavity into a first cavity 221 and a second cavity 222, and a wire hole 211 is provided on the plate 21, which connects the first cavity 221 and the second cavity 222. The plate 21 is a plate-like structure and can be made of metal material; the wire assembly structure 10 is located in the accommodating cavity, and the seal 11 is installed at the wire hole 211 to seal the wire hole 211.

[0045] It can be understood that the plate body 21 can separate the accommodating cavity into a first cavity 221 and a second cavity 222 to prevent the electronic devices in the first cavity 221 and the second cavity 222 from interfering with each other. The wire 12 can pass through the wire hole 211 from the first cavity 221 to the second cavity 222, so that the electronic devices in the first cavity 221 and the second cavity 222 can be connected, and the wire assembly structure 10 is located in the accommodating cavity, which can prevent the wire assembly structure 10 from being exposed to the outside for a long time and being affected by exposure to sunlight or erosion and causing failure.

[0046] In some embodiments, the side of the seal 11 close to the first side 214 abuts against the inner wall of the frame 22, so that the frame 22 provides a limit for the side of the seal 11 close to the first side 214, so that the seal 11 can be stably placed in the wire hole 211.

[0047] In a third aspect, based on the above-mentioned shell 20, the present application also provides an air conditioner, including an indoor unit and an outdoor unit, and the outdoor unit includes the shell 20 as any one of the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0048] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
