[0034] Currently, the internal wiring of the air conditioner is located above the air outlet of the chassis. The area above the air outlet is a place where hot and cold water meet near the chassis water tank. It is necessary to first apply sponge. The insulation sponge or foam needs to avoid the wire clips, as this will affect the insulation effect.
[0035] This utility model proposes a chassis assembly.
[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the chassis assembly includes a chassis body 100, the chassis body 100 having an air outlet 110, the chassis body 100 having a wiring structure 200 extending along the length direction of the air conditioner, the wiring structure 200 being located below the air outlet 110, one end of the chassis body 100 having a rodent-proof plate 300, and the end of the rodent-proof plate 300 away from the wiring structure 200 having a first hook 120.
[0037] Understandably, the wiring structure 200 is used to accommodate the internal wiring of the air conditioner. Thus, by placing the wiring structure 200 below the air outlet 110, the internal wiring of the air conditioner is laid below the air outlet 110, thereby avoiding the impact on the insulation near the chassis water tank above the air outlet 110, preventing the reduction of the insulation effect, and thus ensuring the performance of the air conditioner.
[0038] Furthermore, a rodent-proof plate 300 is provided at one end of the chassis body 100. Understandably, the rodent-proof plate 300 is used to prevent rodents from entering the air conditioner and gnawing on its internal structural components and wiring. To enable the connection and power supply of the air conditioner's internal wiring harness, some of the wiring needs to extend from the rodent-proof plate 300. To prevent the wiring harness from becoming tangled, the chassis assembly has a first wire hook 120 at the end of the rodent-proof plate 300 away from the wiring structure 200. In this way, the wiring harness extending from the wiring structure 200 can be caught in the first wire hook 120, thus preventing the wiring harness from floating outwards, facilitating cable management, and consequently, simplifying maintenance and repair of the wiring harness.
[0039] The technical solution of this utility model involves setting an air outlet 110 on the chassis body 100, and setting a wiring structure 200 extending along the length of the air conditioner below the air outlet 110. A rodent-proof plate 300 is provided at one end of the chassis body 100, and a first wire hook 120 is provided at the end of the rodent-proof plate 300 away from the wiring structure 200. Thus, on the one hand, compared to setting the wiring structure 200 above the air outlet 110, this invention places the wiring structure 200 below the air outlet 110, thereby avoiding any impact on the insulation of the hot and cold junction above the air outlet 110, preventing a reduction in insulation effect, and thus ensuring the performance of the air conditioner. On the other hand, the first wire hook 120 at the end of the rodent-proof plate 300 away from the wiring structure 200 in this utility model is used to collect the wires extending from the wiring structure 200, thus preventing the wires from floating outwards and improving the convenience of wire management.
[0040] Please see Figure 2 In an embodiment of this utility model, a notch for receiving wires is provided on a groove wall of the chassis body 100 to form a first hook 120.
[0041] Understandably, in one embodiment, the first wire hook 120 and the chassis body 100 are integrally formed. The chassis body 100 has a wire-receiving groove (not shown) at one end near the rodent-proof plate 300. A wire-receiving notch (not shown) is formed on the groove wall away from the wiring structure 200. This notch is used to accommodate the wire harness, and the groove wall serves as the first wire hook 120. Thus, by making the first wire hook 120 and the chassis body 100 an integral structure, the need for additional wire-receiving components is avoided, which simplifies the structure of the chassis assembly and facilitates its manufacturing process.
[0042] More specifically, the cable hold notch includes a connected inlet section and a cable hold section, wherein the inlet section is used for the cable harness to enter the cable hold notch, and the cable hold section is used for the cable harness to be placed. In one embodiment, the inlet section and the cable hold section are arranged at an angle, and the cable harness enters from the inlet section and is then inserted into the cable hold section. When there are multiple cable harnesses, this facilitates the secure securing of each cable harness. In one embodiment, the cable hold notch is inclined, and the inlet section is located above the cable hold section, which facilitates the securing of the cable harness.
[0043] Please see Figure 2 In an embodiment of this utility model, the rodent-proof plate 300 is provided with an anti-detachment flange 310 for blocking the wire harness. The anti-detachment flange 310 includes a first flange 311 and a second flange 312 that are bent and connected. The second flange 312 is located on the side of the first flange 311 that is close to the interior of the chassis body 100.
[0044] Understandably, the wire harness extending from the wiring structure 200 needs to pass through the rodent-proof plate 300. To prevent the wire harness from coming loose at the rodent-proof plate 300, an anti-detachment flange 310 is provided on the rodent-proof plate 300 to stop the wire harness between the rodent-proof plate 300 and the chassis body 100. In one embodiment, the anti-detachment flange 310 includes a first flange 311 and a second flange 312, which are arranged at an angle, and the second flange 312 is located on the side of the first flange 311 closer to the interior of the chassis body 100. Thus, compared to the arrangement of the first flange 311 and the second flange 312 as a single flat plate, placing the second flange 312 on the side of the first flange 311 closer to the interior of the chassis body 100 further reduces the possibility of the wire harness floating out.
[0045] In one embodiment, the first flange 311 is approximately perpendicular to the extension direction of the wiring extending from the wiring structure 200. This facilitates the alignment of the plane containing the first flange 311 with the plane containing the outer side wall of the chassis body 100, thereby improving the overall structural consistency of the chassis assembly. In one embodiment, the first flange 311 and the second flange 312 are an integral structure, which facilitates the processing and forming of the rodent-proof plate 300. Of course, in other embodiments, the first flange 311 and the second flange 312 can also be separate structures, which is not limited here. In one embodiment, the included angle between the first flange 311 and the second flange 312 is an obtuse angle, and the angle between them is not limited here. In one embodiment, the first flange 311 and the second flange 312 are each arranged in a triangular shape, which helps to reduce the material used for the anti-detachment flange 310.
[0046] Please see Figure 3 In an embodiment of this utility model, the wiring structure 200 includes a wiring groove 210 extending along the length direction of the air conditioner and a wire hook 220 provided in the opening of the wiring groove 210.
[0047] Understandably, the wiring structure 200 is used to accommodate the internal wiring of the air conditioner. In the embodiment shown in the figures of this utility model, the wiring structure 200 includes a wiring groove 210 and wire hooks 220. The wiring groove 210 is used to accommodate the internal wiring harness of the air conditioner, and the wire hooks 220 ensure that the wiring harness can be secured within the wiring groove 210, preventing the wiring harness from floating out. In one embodiment, multiple wire hooks 220 are spaced apart along the length of the wiring groove 210. The arrangement of multiple wire hooks 220 improves the reliability of the wiring harness being accommodated within the wiring groove 210. In one embodiment, the multiple wire hooks 220 are located in a straight line along the length of the wiring groove 210, which is beneficial to the consistency of the tightness of the wiring harness.
[0048] In an embodiment of this utility model, the chassis body 100 has a folding notch (not shown) at the cable hook 220. It can be understood that in one embodiment, the cable hook 220 is formed by folding up a portion of the chassis body 100, thus creating a folding notch on the bottom side of the cable hook 220. In this way, the cable hook 220 and the chassis body 100 are an integral structure, thereby saving materials.
[0049] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the cable tray 210 has a cable passage notch 230 opposite to the cable catch hook 220. It is understood that because the cable catch hook 220 is located at the opening of the cable tray 210, the distance between the sidewall of the cable tray 210 and the cable catch hook 220 is relatively short, making it inconvenient to insert the cable harness into the cable tray 210. Therefore, by providing the cable passage notch 230 at the opposite position of the cable catch hook 220, the cable tray 210 facilitates the insertion of the cable harness.
[0050] In one embodiment, a reinforcing notch (not shown) is provided between adjacent through-line notches 230. It is understood that the chassis body 100 needs to be formed by a mold during the molding process, and the setting of the reinforcing notch is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the mold and the service life of the mold.
[0051] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In an embodiment of this utility model, a first ion module 410 is provided below the air outlet 110, and the chassis body 100 is also provided below the air outlet 110 for the connection line of the first ion module 410 to enter the wiring groove 210 for cable entry.
[0052] Understandably, to improve the performance of the air conditioner, a first ion module 410 is also provided in the air conditioner. In one embodiment, the first ion module 410 is configured as a cloud ion module. The cloud ions in the air conditioner mainly refer to the ions generated in the Be ion cloud virus removal technology, including Be ions and high-energy jet ions. The Be ion cloud virus removal technology can not only effectively eliminate viruses in the air, but also remove dust and bacteria from the air. Understandably, the wiring trough 210 extends along the length of the air conditioner, and the first ion module 410 is located below the air outlet 110 and above the wiring trough 210. To allow the connecting wire of the first ion module 410 to enter the wiring trough 210, an inlet notch 130 communicating with the wiring trough 210 is provided below the air outlet 110. The inlet notch 130 prevents the connecting wire of the first ion module 410 from being exposed and also facilitates the containment of the connecting wire of the first ion module 410 within the wiring trough 210. In one embodiment, the inlet notch 130 is located between the two through notches 230, that is, the inlet notch 130 and the wire hook 220 are not correspondingly set, thus avoiding interference between the inlet notch 130 and the through notches 230 and the wire hook 220.
[0053] Please see Figure 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the chassis body 100 is provided with a cantilever baffle 500 at the end away from the rodent-proof plate 300, and a drive assembly 430 and a second ion module 420 are installed at the end of the chassis body 100 near the cantilever baffle 500.
[0054] Specifically, along the length of the air conditioner, the chassis body 100 has two ends, one end of which is equipped with a rodent-proof plate 300, and the other end is equipped with a cantilever baffle 500. Thus, the rodent-proof plate 300 and the cantilever baffle 500 ensure that when the air conditioner is flipped over, hands reaching to either end of the chassis body 100 will not touch any unprotected areas of components, wiring harnesses, wiring harnesses, plugs, or connection connectors, thereby meeting safety regulations regarding electric shock prevention and improving the safety of the air conditioner.
[0055] The chassis body 100 has a drive assembly 430 and a second ion module 420 installed at one end near the cantilever baffle 500. The drive assembly 430 drives the air conditioner's fan blades to rotate and blow air. The second ion module 420 enhances the functionality of the air conditioner. In one embodiment, the second ion module 420 is configured as a negative ion module. The negative ion module generates a high voltage through a boost circuit and discharges using the tips of carbon brushes to form negative ions. These negative ions can combine with oxygen molecules in the air to form negative oxygen ions, thereby purifying the indoor air.
[0056] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5In an embodiment of this utility model, the chassis body 100 is provided with a second hook 140 at one end near the cantilever baffle 500, and the opening of the second hook 140 is arranged opposite to the cantilever baffle 500.
[0057] Understandably, the chassis body 100 has a drive assembly 430 and a second ion module 420 at one end near the cantilever baffle 500. Both the drive assembly 430 and the second ion module 420 have connecting wires extending out. To facilitate the routing of the connecting wires of the drive assembly 430 and the second ion module 420 at the cantilever baffle 500, a second wire hook 140 is provided on the chassis body 100. The second wire hook 140 is used to accommodate the connecting wires of the drive assembly 430 and the second ion module 420. In one embodiment, the latch of the second wire hook 140 is positioned opposite to the cantilever baffle 500, thus facilitating the insertion of the connecting wires of the drive assembly 430 and the second ion module 420.
[0058] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the width of the opening of the second hook 140 is smaller than the width of the bottom of the groove of the second hook 140.
[0059] Understandably, the opening of the second hook 140 is for the wire harness to enter, and the bottom of the groove of the second hook 140 is for accommodating the wire harness. The width of the opening of the second hook 140 is smaller than the width of the bottom of the groove of the second hook 140. This prevents the wire harness contained in the bottom of the groove from coming out of the latch, thereby improving the reliability of the second hook 140 in securing the wire harness.
[0060] This utility model also proposes an air conditioner, which includes an air guide assembly 440, a drive assembly 430, and a chassis assembly. The specific structure of the chassis assembly is as described in the above embodiments. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, and will not be described in detail here. The air guide assembly 440 is rotatably disposed within the air outlet 110; the drive assembly 430 is disposed at one end of the chassis body 100 and is connected to the air guide assembly 440 in a transmission manner; the connecting line of the drive assembly 430 corresponding to the air outlet 110 is located within the wiring structure 200.
[0061] The air conditioner also includes an outdoor unit, an indoor unit, and a flexible connection assembly. The indoor unit includes an air guide assembly 440, a drive assembly 430, and a chassis assembly. The flexible connection assembly connects the indoor and outdoor units. This air conditioner can be a split-type unit that is easy for users to install themselves. It uses flexible refrigerant pipes to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit, and refrigerant is injected into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. Thus, when users install the equipment themselves, they only need to fix the indoor and outdoor units separately, without needing to install refrigerant pipes or add refrigerant, thereby reducing installation difficulty and enabling individual installation.
[0062] In one embodiment, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is connected to the mounting medium via a mounting bracket, and the compressor of the air conditioner is located in the indoor unit. This reduces the weight that the mounting bracket needs to bear, thereby reducing the risk of the mounting bracket falling. However, this design is not limited to this; in other embodiments, the compressor of the air conditioner is located in the outdoor unit.
[0063] In one embodiment, the indoor unit of the air conditioner is further provided with a noise reduction structure to reduce the noise of the compressor. This improves the user experience indoors.
[0064] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
