[0028] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. 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 any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0030] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an air conditioner that is easy to drain includes a box body 1 and a sealing plate 2. The box body 1 is sealed, and the sealing plate 2 is used to divide the interior of the box body 1. The sealing plate 2 divides the interior of the box body 1 into two closed spaces. There is an internal circulation system 3 and an external circulation system 4 inside the box body 1. The internal circulation system 3 and the external circulation system 4 are located on both sides of the sealing plate 2. In this example, the external circulation system 4 is above the internal circulation system 3.
[0032] The internal circulation system 3 includes an evaporating fan 31 and an evaporator 32. The air outlet and the air inlet are both arranged on the box body 1 where the internal circulation system 3 is located. The air outlet end of the evaporating fan 31 is aligned with the air outlet, and the evaporator 32 is aligned with the air inlet. The air is inhaled through the evaporating fan 31, and the gas enters the internal circulation system 3 through the evaporator 32, that is, enters the lower space of the sealing plate 2, and then the cooled gas passes through the evaporator 32 and goes out from the air outlet.
[0033] A lower folding plate 33 is also provided in the internal circulation system 3, and the evaporating fan 31 is provided on the lower folding plate 33. The lower folding plate 33 is bent and provided at the bottom of the box body 1. The lower folding plate 33 divides the internal circulation system 3 into two parts. The lower folding plate 33 is formed by multiple bendings.
[0034] A hanging plate 34 is also provided at the bottom of the sealing plate 2. The two ends of the evaporating fan 31 are respectively connected to the hanging plate 34 and the lower folding plate 33. The hanging plate 34 is also bent. When the evaporating fan 31 shakes, the hanging plate 34 and the lower folding plate 33 play a buffering role.
[0035] The external circulation system 4 includes a condensing fan 41 and a condenser 42. The air intake end of the condensing fan 41 is aligned with the air inlet, and the air outlet end of the condenser 42 is aligned with the air outlet. The air inlet and air outlet here are located on the wall where the external circulation system 4 is located. The condensing fan 41 inhales air, and the gas enters the external circulation system 4. The gas then passes through the condenser 42. After passing through the condenser 42, the gas goes out from the air outlet, and at the same time, condensed liquid will appear in the condenser 42.
[0036] An upper folding plate 43 is also provided in the external circulation system 4. The upper folding plate 43 is bent and provided on the sealing plate 2. The condensing fan 41 is provided on the upper folding plate 43. The upper folding plate 43 divides the external circulation system 4 into two parts. The upper folding plate 43 is formed by multiple bendings.
[0037] A hanging plate 44 is also provided on the upper folding plate 43. The two ends of the condensing fan 41 are respectively connected to the hanging plate 44 and the upper folding plate 43. The top of the hanging plate 44 is connected to the top of the box body 1. The hanging plate 44 is also formed by bending. In this way, when the condensing fan 41 shakes, the hanging plate 44 and the upper folding plate 43 have a buffering effect.
[0038] A water receiving box 5 is also provided in the external circulation system 4, and the condenser 42 is arranged on the water receiving box 5, so that the condensed water on the condenser 42 enters the water receiving box 5, and a first water outlet pipe 51 and a second water outlet pipe 52 are respectively provided on both sides of the bottom of the water receiving box 5. The evaporator 32 is located below the first water outlet pipe 51 and the second water outlet pipe 52. When the air conditioner on the ship tilts, the water in the water receiving box 5 can be discharged through the first water outlet pipe 51 or the second water outlet pipe 52, regardless of whether it flows toward the first water outlet pipe 51 or the second water outlet pipe 52. The condensed water discharged from the first water outlet pipe 51 or the second water outlet pipe 52 drops onto the evaporator 32, and the evaporator 32 evaporates the condensed water when it is working, and a small amount of remaining unevaporated water is discharged from the bottom of the box body 1.
[0039] Furthermore, the first water outlet pipe 51 and the second water outlet pipe 52 can also extend to the outside of the cabinet 1, so that the condensed water is directly discharged outside the air conditioner.
[0040] The water receiving box 5 is arranged on the sealing plate 2 , the first water outlet pipe 51 and the second water outlet pipe 52 pass through the sealing plate 2 , and the evaporator 32 is located below the water outlet ends of the first water outlet pipe 51 and the second water outlet pipe 52 .
[0041] An air inlet pipe 11 and an air outlet pipe 12 are provided on the box body 1. The air suction end of the condensing fan 41 is aligned with the air inlet pipe 11, and the air outlet end of the condenser 42 is aligned with the air outlet pipe 12. The air inlet pipe 11 and the air outlet pipe 12 can collect the gas together without dispersing the gas.
[0042] A first connecting plate 57 and a second connecting plate 58 are further provided at both ends of the guide plate 55 , and both ends of the condenser 42 are connected to the first connecting plate 57 and the second connecting plate 58 respectively.
[0043] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the water receiving box 5 has a bottom plate 53, and the first water outlet pipe 51 and the second water outlet pipe 52 are arranged at both ends of the bottom plate 53. The bottom plate 53 is higher in the middle and lower at both ends. In this way, the liquid flowing out of the condenser 42 reaches the bottom plate 53, and the liquid is automatically diverted to both sides of the bottom plate 53. When the air conditioner is tilted, the liquid can be stored at both ends of the water receiving box 5, so that the liquid in the water receiving box 5 can be discharged at any time.
[0044] The water receiving box 5 has an opening 54, and the condenser 42 is stuck in the opening 54. The water receiving box 5 has a guide plate 55 and a flap 56. The guide plate 55 and the flap 56 are both located on both sides of the opening 54. The guide plate 55 is tilted, and the condenser 42 is stuck between the guide plate 55 and the flap 56. The flap 56 is bent to form a step. The closer the flap 56 is to the condenser 42, the lower its position is. In this way, the air conditioner tilts, driving the condenser 42 to tilt, and the liquid on the condenser 42 falls onto the guide plate 55 or the flap 56. The liquid flows from the guide plate 55 or the flap 56 into the water receiving box 5. The guide plate 55 and the flap 56 can prevent the condensed water from flowing out of the water receiving box 5.
[0045] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
