[0047] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below in combination with the drawings in the preferred embodiments of the present application. In the drawings, the same or similar reference signs represent the same or similar components or components with the same or similar functions throughout. The described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present application. The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0048] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms “mounting”, “connection” and “connection” should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixed connection, or indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or internal communication of two elements or interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0049] ​In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", and the like are intended to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0050] The terms "first", "second", "third" (if any) in the description, claims, and drawings of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily indicate a particular order or sequence.

[0051] In addition, the terms "comprise" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or display comprising a series of steps or units does not have to be limited to only those steps or units clearly listed, but can include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products, or displays.

[0052] In the prior art, the kitchen air conditioner comprises a shell and an air conditioning unit, the shell has a cold zone and a hot zone, and the cold zone and the hot zone are separated by a partition. The evaporator of the air conditioning unit is installed in the cold zone, and the condenser of the air conditioning unit is installed in the hot zone. The front side of the shell is provided with a front panel, and the cold zone and the hot zone are closed by the front panel. However, the area of the front panel is large, which is easy to deform, resulting in a gap between the front panel and the partition, and the gas in the cold zone and the gas in the hot zone are easy to flow through the gap between the front panel and the partition, affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0053] After repeated thinking and verification, the inventors found that if a cover plate is used to seal the hot zone of the shell, and then a front panel is provided on the front side of the shell to form a seal of the cold zone through the front panel, and the front panel covers the cover plate. Since the area of the cover plate is smaller than that of the front panel, the cover plate can reliably at least partially seal the hot zone, and the gas in the cold zone and the gas in the hot zone are not easy to flow through each other, which is beneficial to the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioning unit in the kitchen air conditioner.

[0054] Therefore, the inventor designs a shell and a kitchen air conditioner. The shell is provided with a cavity in a shell body and an opening communicating with the cavity. The opening is oriented forward. A partition plate in the shell body divides the cavity into a cold zone and a hot zone. A first opening of the opening communicates with the cold zone, and a second opening of the opening communicates with the hot zone. A cover plate of a shielding assembly is at least partially arranged on the second opening to at least partially seal the hot zone. A front panel is arranged on the opening before use. The front panel seals the cold zone and covers the cover plate. The cover plate is not easily deformed, ensuring the reliability of the sealing of the hot zone. The gas in the cold zone and the gas in the hot zone are not easily communicated with each other, which is beneficial to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioning unit of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0055] The technical solutions of the shell and the kitchen air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0056] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the drawings, the shell 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application is applied to a kitchen air conditioner. The kitchen air conditioner includes a range hood unit 400 and an air conditioning unit 200. Illustratively, the range hood unit 400 includes a range hood fan and a range hood duct. The range hood duct is connected to an air outlet end of the range hood fan. The oil fume in the kitchen can be extracted through the range hood unit 400. The air conditioning unit 200 includes an evaporator, a condenser, a supply fan and a heat dissipation fan. The gas cooled by the evaporator can be brought into the room by the supply fan to cool the room. The gas can flow through the condenser by the heat dissipation fan to cool the condenser.

[0057] The shell 100 includes a shell body 110, a partition plate 120, a shielding assembly and a front panel 140. The shell body 110 has a cavity and an opening communicating with the cavity. The opening is oriented to the front side of the shell body 110. The front side of the shell body 110 is the side of the shell body 110 facing the user. The components of the kitchen air conditioner can be installed in the cavity of the shell body 110 through the opening on the front side of the shell body 110.

[0058] The partition plate 120 is arranged in the cavity. The partition plate 120 divides the cavity into a cold zone 111 and a hot zone 112. The opening includes a first opening and a second opening. The first opening communicates with the cold zone 111, and the second opening communicates with the hot zone 112. Illustratively, the partition plate 120 can extend along the front-rear direction of the shell 100. The cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112 can be arranged side by side along the left-right direction. The evaporator and the supply fan of the air conditioning unit 200 are installed in the cold zone 111, and the condenser and the heat dissipation fan of the air conditioning unit 200 are installed in the hot zone 112. It can be understood that the part of the opening corresponding to the cold zone 111 is the first opening, and the part of the opening corresponding to the hot zone 112 is the second opening.

[0059] The shielding assembly has at least one cover plate 130, which covers at least a part of the second opening and forms at least a partial seal of the hot zone 112. In one possible implementation, the number of cover plates 130 can be one, which can completely cover the second opening and form a seal of the hot zone 112 through the cover plate 130. In another possible implementation, the number of cover plates 130 can be multiple, for example, two, three, or four, etc., which are respectively arranged on different parts of the second opening, each cover plate 130 forms a partial seal of the hot zone 112, and the multiple cover plates 130 collectively seal the hot zone 112. Exemplarily, after the cover plate 130 is arranged on the second opening, the cover plate 130 can be fixed to the partition plate 120 and the shell 110 through fasteners.

[0060] The front panel 140 is arranged on the opening to form a seal of the cold zone 111 and covers the cover plate 130. It can be understood that the front panel 140 is located on the front side of the shell 100 and can be fixed to the shell 110 through fasteners after being arranged on the opening. After the front panel 140 is arranged on the opening, a seal of the cold zone 111 can be formed to prevent the gas in the cold zone 111 from escaping from the opening. The cover plate 130 behind the front panel 140 is not visible to the user, which can make the front side of the shell 100 more concise. The front panel 140 can be spaced apart from the cover plate 130 or be closely attached to the cover plate 130, which is not uniquely limited herein.

[0061] The shell 100 provided by the embodiment has a shell 110 with a cavity and an opening communicating with the cavity, and the opening faces forward. The partition plate 120 is arranged in the cavity of the shell 110, which divides the cavity into the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112. The opening includes a first opening communicating with the cold zone 111 and a second opening communicating with the hot zone 112. The cover plate 130 of the shielding assembly is arranged on at least a part of the second opening and forms at least a partial seal of the hot zone 112. The front panel 140 is arranged on the opening of the shell 100 to form a seal of the cold zone 111 and covers the cover plate 130. Since the area of the cover plate 130 is smaller than that of the front panel 140, the cover plate 130 is not easy to deform and has no gap with the partition plate 120, so that the cover plate 130 can reliably seal at least a part of the second opening to reliably form at least a partial seal of the hot zone 112. During the working process of the kitchen air conditioner, the gas in the cold zone 111 and the gas in the hot zone 112 are not easy to flow into each other, which reduces the cold-hot flow mixing problem and ensures the heat exchange efficiency of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0062] In other embodiments, the cover plate 130 of the shielding assembly is arranged on at least a part of the first opening and forms at least a partial seal of the cold zone 111. The front panel 140 is arranged on the opening to form a seal of the hot zone 112.

[0063] In one embodiment, the front side of the cover plate 130 abuts against the back side of the front panel 140.

[0064] In one embodiment, the front side of the cover plate 130 abuts against the back side of the front panel 140 after the cover plate 130 and the front panel 140 are connected to the housing 110. The arrangement can prevent the gas in the hot zone 112 from flowing between the cover plate 130 and the front panel 140, which can affect the heat exchange efficiency of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0065] In one embodiment, the number of the cover plates 130 is at least two, and the at least two cover plates 130 are arranged along the height direction of the housing 100.

[0066] In one embodiment, the number of the cover plates 130 is at least two, and the at least two cover plates 130 are arranged along the height direction of the housing 100.

[0067] In one embodiment, the number of the cover plates 130 is at least two, and the at least two cover plates 130 are arranged along the height direction of the housing 100. Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the housing 100 further includes a base plate 150, and the base plate 150 extends laterally. The base plate 150 covers a part of the first opening and a part of the second opening.

[0068] In one embodiment, the base plate 150 is located at the front side of the housing 100, and the base plate 150 can be formed in a strip structure and extends laterally along the length direction. The first part of the base plate 150 covers a part of the first opening, and the second part of the base plate 150 covers a part of the second opening. In one embodiment, the part of the base plate 150 covering the first opening can serve as a mounting position of the air supply fan.

[0069] In one embodiment, the number of the cover plates 130 is two, and the two cover plates 130 are located at the two sides of the base plate 150 along the height direction of the housing 100. In other words, one of the cover plates 130 is located above the base plate 150, and the other cover plate 130 is located below the base plate 150.

[0070] In one embodiment, the base plate 150 and the two cover plates 130 are connected in sequence to jointly close the second opening. In one embodiment, the top end of the base plate 150 is connected to the bottom end of one of the cover plates 130, and the bottom end of the base plate 150 is connected to the top end of the other cover plate 130. After the base plate 150 and the two cover plates 130 are connected, the gas in the hot zone 112 cannot escape from between the base plate 150 and the cover plates 130.

[0071] In the embodiment, the substrate 150 and the two cover plates 130 jointly seal the second opening, which avoids excessive number of cover plates 130 and facilitates the sealing of the hot zone 112 by the staff.

[0072] In a more specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The housing 110 has two oppositely arranged side plates 160, specifically, the two side plates 160 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the housing 110. The housing 110 also includes a back plate, which is located on the back side of the housing 110, and the back plate is connected to the two side plates 160 respectively.

[0073] The two ends of the substrate 150 in the extension direction are respectively connected to the two side plates 160. Specifically, the left end of the substrate 150 in the transverse direction is connected to the left side plate 160, and the right end of the substrate 150 in the transverse direction is connected to the right side plate 160. The substrate 150 can be fixed to the side plate 160 by fastening.

[0074] Through the above arrangement, the two ends of the substrate 150 are respectively connected to the two side plates 160 of the housing 110, so that the substrate 150 can be reliably covered on the local part of the first opening and the local part of the second opening. In addition, the substrate 150 can support the housing 110 to some extent and strengthen the structural strength of the housing 110.

[0075] In a specific embodiment, the partition plate 120 is located in the middle of the chamber, and the middle part of the substrate 150 is connected to the partition plate 120.

[0076] Specifically, the middle part of the back side of the substrate 150 abuts against the front end of the partition plate 120, and the substrate 150 can be fixed to the partition plate 120 by clamping connection or fastening.

[0077] In the embodiment, the left and right ends of the substrate 150 are respectively connected to the two side plates 160, and the middle part of the substrate 150 is also connected to the partition plate 120, which further improves the reliability of the connection between the substrate 150 and the housing 110, and further improves the reliability of the substrate 150 and the two cover plates 130 in sealing the second opening.

[0078] In an embodiment, as shown in Figures 4-7 The front end of the partition plate 120 has a connecting edge 121, and the cover plate 130 is connected to the partition plate 120 through the connecting edge 121.

[0079] The connecting edge 121 can be a strip-shaped structure, the length of which extends along the height direction of the housing 110. In one possible implementation, the connecting edge 121 can be a flange formed by bending the front end of the partition 120. In another possible implementation, the connecting edge 121 can also be a strip-shaped structure welded to the front end of the partition 120. Optionally, the extending direction of the connecting edge 121 can be perpendicular to the extending direction of the main body of the partition 120.

[0080] Indicatively, the left side of the cover plate 130 can be pressed against the front side of the connecting edge 121. At this time, the connecting edge 121 can fit against the cover plate 130. After the cover plate 130 is pressed onto the connecting edge 121, it can be fixed to the connecting edge 121 by fastening with fasteners.

[0081] In this embodiment, the connecting edge 121 on the front side of the partition 120 can ensure the contact area between the partition 120 and the cover plate 130, and can realize a reliable connection between the cover plate 130 and the partition 120.

[0082] It is worth mentioning that when the middle part of the substrate 150 is connected to the partition 120, the substrate 150 can be pressed onto the connecting edge 121 on the front side of the partition 120, and the substrate 150 and the connecting edge 121 can be fixed by fastening with fasteners.

[0083] like Figure 1 and Figures 5-7 As shown, a notch 122 is provided on the front side of the partition 120 for the refrigerant pipe 210 of the air conditioning unit 200 to pass through, and the notch 122 connects the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112.

[0084] In this embodiment, the notch 122 extends from the front side of the partition 120 toward the middle of the partition 120. The cross-sectional shape of the notch 122 can be U-shaped, with the opening of the U-shape facing the front side of the partition 120. A portion of the refrigerant piping 210 of the air conditioning unit 200 passes between the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112, for example, the refrigerant piping 210 between the evaporator and the condenser. The refrigerant piping 210 connecting the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112 can pass through the notch 122 on the partition 120. This embodiment does not limit the width or depth of the notch 122; those skilled in the art can configure it as needed.

[0085] In one possible implementation, there may be one gap 122 through which all refrigerant pipes 210 between the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112 pass. In another possible implementation, there may be multiple gaps 122 through which multiple refrigerant pipes 210 between the cold zone 111 and the hot zone 112 pass.

[0086] In this embodiment, the refrigerant pipeline 210 between the cold area 111 and the hot area 112 of the air conditioning unit 200 can pass through the gap 122 on the partition 120. The air conditioning unit 200 can be put into or taken out of the housing 100 as a whole. When the air conditioning unit 200 is put into the housing 100, the refrigerant pipeline 210 between the cold area 111 and the hot area 112 can be directly put into the gap 122 of the partition 120; when the air conditioning unit 200 is taken out, the refrigerant pipeline 210 between the cold area 111 and the hot area 112 can also be directly taken out from the gap 122 of the partition 120. This facilitates the maintenance of the kitchen air conditioner by the staff.

[0087] In a specific embodiment, a blocking piece for blocking the gap between the refrigerant pipeline 210 and the gap 122 is further arranged at the gap 122.

[0088] In a possible implementation, a baffle can be used as the blocking piece, and a notch for the refrigerant pipeline 210 to pass through is formed on the baffle. The notch can be located on the rear side of the baffle, and the notch can extend from the rear side of the baffle to the middle of the baffle. After the refrigerant pipeline 210 passes through the gap 122 of the partition 120, the baffle is installed on the partition 120, and the refrigerant pipeline 210 in the gap 122 also passes through the notch of the baffle, and the rest of the gap 122 is shielded by the baffle. In other embodiments, a filling material can also be used as the blocking piece. For example, after the refrigerant pipeline 210 passes through the gap 122 of the partition 120, a filling material such as foaming glue can be arranged at the position of the gap 122 of the partition 120 to fill the gap between the refrigerant pipeline 210 and the gap 122.

[0089] By arranging the blocking piece, the gas in the cold area 111 and the gas in the hot area 112 can be prevented from flowing through the gap 122, so as to ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioning unit 200 of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0090] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The application further provides a kitchen air conditioner, which comprises an extractor unit 400, an air conditioning unit 200, an electric control box 500, and the housing 100 described above. The housing 110 of the housing 100 further has an exhaust cavity 113, and the exhaust cavity 113 is located below the cold area 111 and the hot area 112. The extractor unit 400 is installed in the exhaust cavity 113. Illustratively, the inside of the housing 110 has a mounting plate, and the mounting plate can extend transversely. The inside of the housing 110 is divided into a cavity and the exhaust cavity 113 by the mounting plate.
