[0024] To illustrate the possible application scenarios, technical principles, implementable specific solutions, and achievable objectives and effects of this application in detail, the following description, in conjunction with the listed specific embodiments and accompanying drawings, provides a detailed explanation. The embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the technical solutions of this application and are therefore intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] In the description of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features.

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0027] This application provides a speaker mounting structure and an air conditioner to solve the problem that opening a sound outlet on the front panel of the air conditioner reduces its aesthetic appeal. The following description will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a speaker mounting structure, including a speaker body 2, a buffer seat 1, and a middle frame 3. The speaker body 2 is disposed in the buffer seat 1, the buffer seat 1 is disposed in the middle frame 3, and both the speaker body 2 and the buffer seat 1 are fixedly connected to the middle frame 3. The middle frame 3 is provided with a sound outlet hole 33.

[0029] By installing the speaker body 2 into the buffer seat 1 and setting the buffer seat 1 on the middle frame 3, not only is the speaker body 2 fixedly connected to the air conditioner, but also by installing the speaker body 2 on the middle frame 3, the problem of needing to open a sound hole 33 on the front panel of the air conditioner is avoided, which would otherwise require installing the speaker on the front panel of the air conditioner. This improves the overall integrity of the front panel of the air conditioner, thereby enhancing the aesthetics of the air conditioner and solving the problem of reducing the aesthetics of the air conditioner due to opening a sound hole 33 on the front panel of the air conditioner.

[0030] In this embodiment, the buffer seat 1 is disposed on the inner frame surface of the middle frame 3 and located at the bottom. In some embodiments of this application, the buffer seat 1 can also be disposed on both sides of the middle frame 3 in the horizontal direction or on the top side of the middle frame 3. The sound outlet 33 is disposed opposite to the buffer seat 1. That is, in this embodiment, the sound outlet 33 is opened at the bottom of the middle frame 3. In some embodiments of this application, the sound outlet 33 is opened on both sides of the middle frame 3 in the horizontal direction or on the top side of the middle frame 3.

[0031] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The middle frame 3 has a first fixing member 31 and a second fixing member 32 integrally formed on it. The buffer seat 1 has a first connecting member 11 integrally formed on it. The speaker body 2 has a second connecting member 21 integrally formed on it. The first fixing member 31 includes a fixing part 311, a plugging part 312 and a locking part (not shown in the figure). The fixing part 311 is fixedly connected to the middle frame 3. The plugging part 312 is cylindrical. One end of the plugging part 312 is fixedly connected to the fixing part 311 and the plugging part 312 is horizontally arranged. The first connecting member 11 has a first plug hole 12 that is plugged into the plugging part 312. The second connecting member 21 has a second plug hole 22 that is plugged into the plugging part 312. The locking part and the plug-in part 312 are detachably connected. In this embodiment, the locking part is a bolt. The plug-in part 312 is provided with a threaded hole 34 that mates with the locking part. By passing the plug-in part 312 through the first plug hole 12 and the second plug hole 22, the locking part is then installed on the plug-in part 312, so that the locking part is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 34. The head of the installation part abuts against the first connector 11, thereby restricting the first connector 11 and the second connector 21 from disengaging from the plug-in part 312.

[0032] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3The first connector 11 includes a first connecting portion 111 and a second connecting portion 112, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the width direction of the buffer seat 1. A first insertion hole 12 passes through the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112, forming a storage groove 13 between the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112 for the second connector 21 to extend into. A notch 23 is provided at the bottom of the second connector 21, which communicates with the second insertion hole 22, allowing the insertion part 312 to be inserted into the second insertion hole 22 through the notch 23. The opening size of the notch 23 gradually decreases from the bottom of the second connector 21 to the wall of the second insertion hole 22, which not only facilitates the insertion part 312 to be inserted into the second insertion hole 22 through the notch 23, but also helps to keep the insertion part 312 in the second insertion hole 22.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the number of the first fixing member 31, the first connecting member 11, and the second connecting member 21 are all set to two. The two first fixing members 31 are spaced apart along the length direction of the middle frame 3, the two first connecting members 11 are spaced apart along the length direction of the buffer seat 1, and the two second connecting members 21 are spaced apart along the length direction of the speaker body 2. One of the first fixing members 31 is configured to correspond one-to-one with one of the first connecting members 11 and one of the second connecting members 21, and the other first fixing member 31 is configured to correspond one-to-one with another of the first connecting members 11 and another of the second connecting members 21.

[0034] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The buffer seat 1 has a receiving groove 15, and the speaker body 2 is housed in the receiving groove 15. A sound-transmitting hole is provided at the bottom of the receiving groove 15. The sound-emitting side of the speaker body 2 is directly opposite the sound-transmitting hole, and the sound outlet 33 is directly opposite the sound-transmitting hole, so that when the speaker body 2 is installed in the receiving groove 15, the sound emitted by the speaker body 2 can be transmitted to the outside of the air conditioner through the sound-transmitting hole and the sound outlet 33. A slot 321 is provided on the second fixing member 32, and an insertion part 14 is provided on the buffer seat 1 to engage with the slot 321. In this embodiment, the number of the second fixing member 32 and the insertion part 14 are both set to two. The two second fixing members 32 are arranged alternately along the length direction of the middle frame 3, and the two insertion parts 14 are arranged alternately along the length direction of the buffer seat 1. In addition, the buffer seat 1 is made of elastic material. In this embodiment, the buffer seat 1 is made of rubber. By setting the buffer seat 1, not only can the vibration generated when the speaker body 2 emits sound be buffered, but the vibration generated by the middle frame 3 can also be buffered, thus avoiding noise caused by vibration between the speaker body 2 and the middle frame 3.

[0035] This application also provides an air conditioner that includes the speaker mounting structure described above. Since this air conditioner has the aforementioned speaker mounting structure, it possesses at least some or all of the beneficial effects of the aforementioned speaker mounting structure, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0036] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions in other embodiments.
