[0033] The top cover 100 of the air conditioner according to the first embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 5-Figure 8 , comprising: a top cover body 10. A positioning structure 11 is formed on the top cover body 10. The positioning structure 11 is suitable for cooperating with the ornament 20 placed on the top cover 100 to fix the ornament 20 on the top cover 100. By forming the positioning structure 11 on the top cover body 10, when a user needs to place the ornament 20 on the top cover 100, the ornament 20 can be matched with the positioning structure 11 on the top cover 100, so that the ornament 20 can be placed on the top cover 100 more stably and the ornament 20 is not easy to fall over, thereby preventing the ornament 20 on the top cover 100 from falling over and causing damage to the ornament 20 or injuring someone.

[0034] The case of the air conditioner may include a top cover 100 and a housing, the top of the housing is open, and the top cover 100 is provided on the top of the housing.

[0035] For example, the top cover 100 may include a mounting portion and a top portion. The mounting portion may be disposed on a side of the top portion. When the top cover 100 is connected to the housing of the case, the mounting portion is received within the housing and connected thereto. The mounting portion may secure the top cover body 10 to the housing through a snap-fit ​​connection. The positioning structure 11 may be disposed on the top portion.

[0036] For example, the top cover body 10 may be a plastic part.

[0037] According to the top cover 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, a positioning structure 11 is provided on the top cover body 10, so that when the user places the ornament 20 on the top cover 100, the ornament 20 can cooperate with the positioning structure 11 on the top cover 100, so that the ornament 20 can be placed on the top cover 100 more stably, thereby making it difficult for the ornament 20 to fall over.

[0038] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figures 1-4 The positioning structure 11 includes a positioning groove 12 formed on the top cover body 10, and the bottom surface of the ornament 20 has a positioning protrusion 21 that cooperates with the positioning groove 12. The positioning protrusion 21 is disposed in the positioning groove 12. By making the positioning structure 11 include the positioning groove 12 formed on the top cover body 10, and the bottom surface of the ornament 20 has the positioning protrusion 21 that cooperates with the positioning groove 12, when the user needs to place the ornament 20 on the top cover 100, the positioning protrusion 21 can be accommodated in the positioning groove 12, so that the top cover 100 can limit the position of the ornament 20, making it less likely to fall off, thereby preventing the ornament 20 on the top cover 100 from falling off and causing damage to the ornament 20 or injuring people.

[0039] For example, the positioning groove 12 can be interference fit with the positioning protrusion 21. By making the positioning groove 12 and the positioning protrusion 21 interference fit, it is more convenient and labor-saving for the user to take out or place the ornament 20.

[0040] For example, the positioning groove 12 has a bottom. When the positioning protrusion 21 is received in the positioning groove 12, the positioning protrusion 21 contacts the bottom of the positioning groove 12. This allows the positioning protrusion 21 to be fully restrained by the sidewalls of the positioning groove 12. The bottom of the positioning groove 12 supports the positioning protrusion 21, and the ornament 20 is not likely to fall over.

[0041] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The positioning groove 12 is a groove formed on the upper surface of the top cover body 10. By forming the positioning groove 12 on the upper surface of the top cover body 10, the positioning groove 12 can be more easily matched with the ornament 20 placed on the top cover 100. The sidewalls of the positioning groove 12 can limit the ornament 20 in the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction, making it less likely to fall off.

[0042] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The positioning groove 12 is formed by a portion of the top cover body 10 that is recessed downward. By forming the positioning groove 12 by a portion of the top cover body 10 that is recessed downward, the processing of the positioning groove 12 can be simplified. Furthermore, the structural strength of the top cover body 10 near the positioning groove 12 is not weakened by the provision of the positioning groove 12, and can be improved to a certain extent.

[0043] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 8 The depth of the positioning groove 12 is a, and the thickness of the top cover body 10 is b, where a>b. By making the depth of the positioning groove 12 greater than the thickness of the top cover body 10, the mating area between the positioning groove 12 and the ornament 20 is increased, and the positioning groove 12 more effectively limits the position of the ornament 20, thereby making the ornament 20 more stable on the top cover 100 and less likely to fall over.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 8 The depth of the positioning groove 12 is a, the thickness of the top cover body 10 is b, and the ratio of a to b ranges from 2 to 6. For example, the ratio of a to b can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. By setting the ratio of a to b to be no less than 2, the depth of the positioning groove 12 can be sufficiently large, the mating area of ​​the positioning groove 12 and the ornament 20 can be larger, and the positioning groove 12 can more effectively limit the ornament 20. By setting the ratio of a to b to no more than 6, the depth of the positioning groove 12 in the vertical direction can be prevented from being too large, thereby preventing the positioning groove 12 from interfering with components inside the air conditioner.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the positioning protrusion 21 is interference-fitted with the positioning groove 12. By making the positioning protrusion 21 and the positioning groove 12 interference-fitted, the connection between the positioning protrusion 21 and the positioning groove 12 can be tightened.

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 5 There is at least one positioning structure 11, and at least one positioning structure 11 is located at the front of the top cover body 10. Since the top cover 100 is located at a higher position, it is more convenient for the user to place the ornament 20 at the front of the top cover 100. By having at least one positioning structure 11 located at the front of the top cover body 10, the positioning structure 11 can easily fix the ornament 20 at the front of the top cover body 10, making it easier for the user to place the ornament 20.

[0047] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 5There are multiple positioning structures 11, and at least some of the positioning structures 11 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. Having multiple positioning structures 11 makes it easier for a user to place and secure multiple ornaments 20 on the top cover 100, so that each of the ornaments 20 can be restrained by the positioning structures 11 and prevented from falling off. At least some of the positioning structures 11 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction, and when the positioning structures 11 arranged at intervals along the left-right direction respectively cooperate with the ornaments 20, the user can easily see the multiple ornaments 20 from the front of the air conditioner.

[0048] For example, there may be two positioning structures 11, which are spaced apart in the left-right direction. When a user places two ornaments 20 on the top cover 100, the two ornaments 20 engage with the two positioning structures 11, respectively. The two ornaments 20 are spaced apart in the left-right direction, and the user can see both ornaments 20 from the front of the air conditioner.
