In the utility model, the transverse direction is parallel to the plane 200 and perpendicular to the vertical direction.

[0038] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 The cavity structure 3 protrudes from the inner surface of the main wall plate of the shell 19 towards the inner side 209, the inside of the cavity structure 3 forms a handle position 300, the handle position 300 is the accommodation space of the fingers when the air conditioner body is lifted, and the handle position 300 is open towards the outer side 208. The peripheral wall 4 is connected with the cavity structure 3 and arranged directly above the cavity structure 3. The mounting buckle 5 and the mounting fixing hole 6 are both arranged towards the inner side 209 and partially located on the inner side 209, the mounting buckle 5 and the mounting fixing hole 6 are arranged at the lower part of the main body 1 and on the transverse two sides of the main body 1 respectively.

[0039] Further combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5The cavity structure 3 comprises a top wall 31, and the cavity structure 3 is provided with an upper ventilation hole penetrating through the top wall 31 in the vertical direction, the upper ventilation hole is communicated with the handle position 300, and the upper ventilation hole comprises a first upper ventilation hole 311 and a second upper ventilation hole 312. The first upper ventilation hole 311 and the second upper ventilation hole 312 are both located on the inner side 209, and the first upper ventilation hole 311 is located farther away from the outer side 208 than the second upper ventilation hole 312. Since the main body 1 in the embodiment comprises the shell 19 which is outwardly convex towards the outer side 208, and the cavity structure 3 is convex from the main wall plate of the shell 19 towards the inner side 209, the top wall 31 is partially located on the outer side 208 and partially located on the inner side 209, and the first upper ventilation hole 311 and the second upper ventilation hole 312 are both arranged on the part of the top wall 31 located on the inner side 209.

[0040] The peripheral wall 4 is located on the inner side 209 and is arranged directly above the first upper ventilation hole 311, the peripheral wall 4 is connected to the upper side of the top wall 31, the inner periphery of the peripheral wall 4 is provided with an airflow channel 40, and the airflow channel 40 is communicated with the first upper ventilation hole 311. The inner rib plates 71 are arranged on the inner periphery of the peripheral wall 4, and the bottom of the inner periphery of the peripheral wall 4 is separated by the plurality of inner rib plates 71 to form a plurality of first upper ventilation holes 311. Among them, along the front-rear direction of the handle of the air conditioner main body, the peripheral wall 4 comprises a front wall plate 41 close to the front side 208 and a rear wall plate 42 away from the front side 208 relative to the front wall plate 41, the front wall plate 41 is the wall plate close to the front side of the peripheral wall 4 in the utility model, and the plurality of inner rib plates 71 extend along the front-rear direction of the handle of the air conditioner main body and are connected between the front wall plate 41 and the rear wall plate 42.
