Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the indoor unit of an air conditioner is connected to the outdoor unit via a connecting pipe assembly (including refrigerant pipes, water pipes, and electrical wires). The indoor unit has a pipe outlet, and all refrigerant pipes exit together at the outlet. The simultaneous exit of refrigerant pipes, water pipes, and electrical wires can easily cause interference. The electrical wires, being thicker and stiffer as connecting wires, are concentrated in the space at the pipe outlet, making them prone to crisscrossing and stacking. This makes them difficult to manage and affects panel installation. Furthermore, the electrical wires' insulation is at risk of wear and tear over long-term operation, and the refrigerant pipes pose a risk of electrical leakage. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to propose an air conditioner that aims to solve the risk of electric leakage that may occur when the refrigerant pipe comes into contact with the wire by separating the wire from the refrigerant pipe. It also solves the problem of interference between the two and squeezing the drain pipe, which would cause the whole unit to stop due to full water, thus solving the safety hazards of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an air conditioner comprising:

[0005] Connecting piping assemblies, including refrigerant piping and electrical wiring; and

[0006] An air conditioner outdoor unit and an air conditioner indoor unit are connected by a connecting pipe assembly. The air conditioner indoor unit includes a panel with a pipe outlet, a wire outlet located above the pipe outlet, and a wire passage groove connecting the pipe outlet and the wire outlet. The wire passes through the panel and through the wire passage groove to the wire outlet. The refrigerant pipe assembly passes through the pipe outlet. The wire passage groove includes a main groove section and a first guide section connecting the main groove section and the pipe outlet. The width of the first guide section increases in the direction close to the pipe outlet.

[0007] In one embodiment, the upper end of the pipe outlet is provided with a second guide section, which is connected and transitioned to the first guide section, and the width of the second guide section is set to decrease in the direction close to the first guide section.

[0008] In one embodiment, the groove wall of the first guide section is planar.

[0009] In one embodiment, the groove wall of the second guide section is arranged in an arc shape.

[0010] In one embodiment, the diameter of the pipe outlet is larger than the diameter of the wire outlet, and the diameter of the wire outlet is larger than the diameter of the wire passage groove.

[0011] In one embodiment, the wire passage further includes a third guide section connecting the main passage section and the wire outlet, the width of the third guide section being increased in the direction close to the wire outlet.

[0012] In one embodiment, the diameter of the wire channel is greater than or equal to the outer diameter of the wire.

[0013] In one embodiment, the indoor unit of the air conditioner further includes an indoor unit body and a positioning member disposed on the indoor unit body. The panel is installed outside the indoor unit body, and the positioning member positions a portion of the wire on the indoor unit body, with the remaining portion of the wire passing through the wire outlet.

[0014] In one embodiment, the positioning element is configured as a wire harness clamp.

[0015] In one embodiment, the positioning member is fastened to the indoor unit body by screws.

[0016] In one embodiment, the wire passes through the positioning member and then passes through the wire outlet in a U-shape.

[0017] In one embodiment, the wire harness clamp is a metal bundle, and the metal bundle includes multiple metal bundles, which are spaced apart on the indoor unit body along the direction in which the wires pass through.

[0018] In one embodiment, the air conditioner further includes a piping cover connected to the panel, which covers the pipe outlet, the wire outlet, and the wire channel.

[0019] In one embodiment, the connecting pipe assembly further includes a protective sleeve, the refrigerant pipe assembly is configured as a flexible refrigerant pipe, the protective sleeve covers the refrigerant pipe assembly and the wires, and the piping cap is located on the upper end of the pipe relative to the pipe outlet and covers the protective sleeve.

[0020] In one embodiment, the compressor of the air conditioner is located inside the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0021] This invention's technical solution involves creating pipe and wire outlets of different heights on the panel, connected by a wire channel. During panel assembly, the wires enter the outlets through the pipe and wire channels, allowing them to directly enter the protective sleeve of the connecting pipe assembly after exiting the indoor unit. This prevents the wires from contacting exposed parts of the refrigerant pipe assembly, eliminating the risk of leakage. Furthermore, separating the wires and refrigerant pipes at the outlets avoids the problem of pipes easily crossing and stacking, reducing direct pressure on the drain pipe and preventing drainage problems or pipe damage. This helps ensure the normal drainage function of the indoor unit, preventing shutdowns due to overfilling and improving the stability and reliability of the air conditioning system. Moreover, the separate pipe design makes it easier for installers to identify and operate different pipes during installation and maintenance, reducing misoperation and time waste caused by mixed pipes, and improving work efficiency.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0034] In related technologies, the indoor unit of an air conditioner is connected to the outdoor unit via a connecting pipe assembly (including refrigerant pipes, water pipes, and electrical wires). The indoor unit has a pipe outlet, and all refrigerant pipes exit together at this outlet. The simultaneous exit of refrigerant pipes, water pipes, and electrical wires can easily cause interference. The electrical wires, being thicker and stiffer as connecting wires, are concentrated in the space at the pipe outlet, making them prone to crisscrossing and stacking. This makes them difficult to manage, affecting panel installation, and can also compress the drain pipe, hindering drainage from the indoor unit. This could lead to the entire unit filling with water and shutting down, impacting user experience.

[0035] Therefore, this utility model proposes an air conditioner that aims to solve the risk of electric leakage that may occur when the refrigerant pipe and the wire come into contact by separating the wire from the refrigerant pipe. It also solves the problem of interference between the two causing the water pipe to be squeezed and the whole unit to shut down due to full water. This also solves the safety hazards of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner includes an outdoor unit (not shown in the figure) and an indoor unit 100. The outdoor unit and the indoor unit 100 are connected by a connecting pipe assembly 200. In one embodiment, the connecting pipe assembly 200 includes a refrigerant pipe assembly 210, an electrical wire 220, and a drain pipe 230. In other embodiments, the connecting pipe assembly 200 includes a refrigerant pipe assembly 210, an electrical wire 220, and a drain pipe 230, which is separate and is disposed outside a protective sleeve 240, either partially or completely.

[0037] The air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a pipe outlet 120, a wire outlet 130 located above the pipe outlet 120, and a wire channel 140 connecting the pipe outlet 120 and the wire outlet 130. The wire 220 passes through the pipe outlet 120 and exits the panel, and passes through the wire channel 140 to the wire outlet 130. The refrigerant pipe assembly 210 and the drain pipe 230 pass through the pipe outlet 120.

[0038] During installation, arrange the wire 220, refrigerant pipe, and drain pipe 230 neatly. Install the panel 110 onto the indoor unit body 101 from top to bottom. The wire 220 passes through the pipe outlet 120, the wire groove 140, and enters the wire outlet 130. After assembly, the two refrigerant pipes and the drain pipe 230 in the refrigerant pipe group 210 are in the pipe outlet 120, and the wire 220 is in the upper wire outlet 130. In this way, the wire 220 will not come into contact with the refrigerant pipe, and at the same time, it will not squeeze the drain pipe 230.

[0039] The technical solution of this utility model involves opening pipe outlets 120 and wire outlets 130 at different heights on the panel 110 and connecting them through a wire channel 140. When assembling the panel 110, the wire 220 enters the wire outlet 130 from the pipe outlet 120 and the wire channel 140, allowing the wire 220 to directly enter the protective sleeve 240 of the connecting pipe assembly 200 after exiting the air conditioner indoor unit 100. The wire 220 does not come into contact with the exposed part of the refrigerant pipe assembly 210, thus solving the potential leakage hazard of the refrigerant pipe assembly 210. In addition, the wire 220 and the refrigerant pipe assembly 210 exit separately, solving the problem of easy cross-stacking between pipes at the pipe outlet 120. This reduces the problem of poor drainage or water pipe damage caused by direct compression of the drain pipe 230 by the wire 220 and refrigerant pipe. This helps ensure the normal drainage function of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, prevents shutdown failure due to water overflow, and improves the stability and reliability of the air conditioning system. Moreover, the separate pipeline design makes it easier for installers to distinguish and operate different pipelines during installation and subsequent maintenance, reducing misoperation and time waste caused by pipeline mixing, and improving work efficiency.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 Specifically, to improve the convenience and efficiency of installing the wire 220, the cable tray 140 includes a main tray section 141 and a first guide section 142 connecting the main tray section 141 and the pipe outlet 120. The width of the first guide section 142 increases towards the pipe outlet 120. The first guide section 142 is located at the connection between the cable tray 140 and the pipe outlet 120. The first guide section 142 slopes from the pipe outlet 120 towards the opening of the cable tray 140 to guide the wire 220 from the pipe outlet 120 into the cable tray 140. Figure 4 The diagram illustrates the definition of the width direction, which is also the width direction of the first guide segment 142. Figure 4 The direction is illustrated in the diagram; specifically, the first guide segment 142 has two opposing guide walls, and the width of the first guide segment 142 is the distance between these two opposing guide walls. The width direction will be referred to later. Figure 4 Example direction.

[0041] The design of the first guide section 142 allows the wire 220 to be guided along a smooth and gradually transitioning path as it enters the cable tray 140 from the conduit outlet 120, reducing the resistance and friction that the wire 220 may encounter during installation. This not only simplifies the installation steps and reduces installation difficulty but also improves installation efficiency. The inclined first guide section 142 can mitigate the impact force on the wire 220 when entering the cable tray 140, preventing damage to the wire 220 from direct impact with the hard edge of the tray.

[0042] Specifically, a second guide section 143 is provided at the pipe outlet 120. The second guide section 143 is connected and transitioned to the first guide section 142. The groove wall of the first guide section 142 is flat, while the groove wall of the second guide section 143 is curved. The second guide section 143 is also curved. The second guide section 143 (curved surface) allows the wire 220 to travel along a more natural and smooth curve when contacting and passing through the pipe outlet 120, reducing the stress caused by sharp bending or right-angle turns of the wire 220, thereby solving the risk of damage to the wire 220. This makes it easier for the wire 220 to pass through the first guide section 142 from the pipe outlet 120 into the inlet of the wire trough 140.

[0043] Specifically, in order to prevent damage to the wire 220 during installation, both the first guide section 142 and the second guide section 143 are designed with smooth surfaces. The smooth surfaces are rounded at the edges of the pipe outlet 120, the wire groove 140 and the wire outlet 130, without any sharp edges, thus preventing the wire 220 from being damaged by direct impact with the hard groove edge.

[0044] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 and refer to Figure 4 To better guide the wire 220 into the wire outlet 130, the wire trough 140 also includes a third guide section 144 connecting the main trough section 141 and the wire outlet 130. The width of the third guide section 144 increases in the direction closer to the wire outlet 130. The third guide section 144 is located at the connection between the wire trough 140 and the wire outlet 130. The third guide section 144 slopes from the wire outlet 130 towards the opening of the wire trough 140 to guide the wire 220 from the wire trough 140 into the wire outlet 130.

[0045] The design of the third guide section 144 allows the wire 220 to be guided along a smooth and gradually transitioning path as it enters the wire outlet 130 from the wire trough 140. By precisely controlling the guide path of the wire 220, the limited space can be maximized.

[0046] Furthermore, to facilitate the entry of the wire 220 into the wire outlet 130 and to resolve the conflict and interference between the wire 220 and the refrigerant pipe assembly 210 and the drain pipe 230 caused by the wire 220 being stuck at the wire channel 140 and the wire outlet 130, the diameter of the pipe outlet 120 is larger than that of the wire outlet 130, and the diameter of the wire outlet 130 is larger than that of the wire channel 140, which in turn has a larger diameter than the outer diameter of the wire 220. In one embodiment, the pipe outlet 120 and the wire outlet 130 are bottle-shaped, and the wire channel 140, shaped like a connecting pipe the size of the bottle opening, connects the two.

[0047] Reference Figure 3The wire 220 needs to connect the indoor unit 100 and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The wire 220 is relatively thick and stiff, and not easy to bend, which makes the assembly of the wire 220 difficult. In order to facilitate the assembly of the panel 110 onto the indoor unit body 101, solve the problem of congestion at the pipe outlet 120 and the difficulty in organizing the pipes, thereby improving the assembly efficiency, the indoor unit 100 also includes a positioning member 150 provided on the indoor unit body 101. The panel 110 is installed on the outside of the indoor unit body 101, and the positioning member 150 clamps and fixes part of the wire 220 to the indoor unit body 101. The remaining part of the wire 220 passes through the wire outlet 130.

[0048] The positioning component 150 is configured as a wire harness clamp, which is fastened to the indoor unit body 101 by screws. Of course, the wire harness clamp can also be fixed in other ways, such as welding, snap-fitting, and screw fastening.

[0049] In one embodiment, the wire harness clip is a metal bundle, comprising multiple metal bundles, which are spaced apart on the indoor unit body 101 along the direction in which the wire 220 passes. In another embodiment, the wire harness clip is a plastic U-shaped clip that confines the wire 220 within a U-shaped groove. In yet another embodiment, the wire harness clip is a metal bundle, comprising multiple metal bundles, which are spaced apart on the indoor unit body 101 along the direction in which the wire 220 passes.

[0050] The wire harness clip is used to organize the wires 220. Before assembling the panel 110, the wiring is first organized, and the wires 220 are fixed to the panel 110 using the wire harness clip (i.e., the side where the wires 220 come out of the indoor unit body 101). The wires 220 are bent 180 degrees into a U-shape at the last wire harness clip (to better bend the wires 220, the positioning piece 150 is close to the upper edge of the wire outlet 130). Next, the panel 110 is assembled. First, the panel 110 is placed between the indoor unit body 101 and the refrigerant pipe assembly 210, and then inserted from top to bottom, with the pipe outlet 120... The cable tray 140 and cable outlet 130 pass sequentially through the U-shaped bend of the wire 220 (i.e., the 180-degree bend), allowing the panel 110 to be smoothly installed in the predetermined position. The wire 220 passes through the cable outlet 130, ensuring it does not contact the exposed parts of the refrigerant pipe assembly 210, thus eliminating the potential for leakage from the refrigerant pipe assembly 210. Furthermore, the separate exit of the wire 220 and the refrigerant pipe assembly 210 prevents the pipes from easily crossing and stacking, reducing the risk of direct pressure on the water pipes and resolving drainage problems or water pipe damage caused by the thick and stiff wire 220. Additionally, by pre-positioning the wire 220, its exit length can be controlled, preventing situations where subjective bending of the wire 220 during assembly results in excessively long wires after passing through the cable outlet 130, leaving insufficient space for redundant wires; or where the wire 220 is too short, preventing the installation of the rear panel 110.

[0051] Reference Figure 5 Furthermore, in order to shield and protect the refrigerant pipe assembly 210 at pipe outlet 120 and the electrical wire 220 at wire outlet 130, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is also equipped with a pipe cover 300, which is connected to the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner and shields the refrigerant pipe assembly 210 exposed at pipe outlet 120 and wire outlet 130.

[0052] The air conditioner includes an indoor unit 100 and an outdoor unit. A refrigerant piping assembly 210 (usually copper pipe) connects the indoor unit 100 and the outdoor unit. A pipe cover 300 protects the refrigerant piping assembly 210 and enhances its appearance. The indoor unit 100 and outdoor unit can be integrated into one unit, making it a portable air conditioner that does not require an external exhaust pipe or outdoor unit; all components are integrated into a single unit. However, this is not the only option. In one embodiment, the indoor unit 100 and outdoor unit are connected via flexible refrigerant piping pre-filled with refrigerant before leaving the factory. This eliminates the need for a professional to refrigerant charge after purchase, reducing user operating costs. Furthermore, when installing the equipment themselves, users only need to fix the indoor unit 100 and outdoor unit separately, without needing to assemble the refrigerant piping or add refrigerant, thus simplifying installation and enabling individual installation. In another embodiment, the compressor is located in the indoor unit of the air conditioner. This reduces the weight of the outdoor unit, making it easier for users to move the outdoor unit to a suitable installation location, thus reducing installation difficulty and labor costs, especially in areas with high labor costs. Correspondingly, to address noise issues, the compressor in the indoor unit undergoes noise reduction treatment, such as by filling it with noise-reducing materials; and a buffer structure is incorporated to mitigate compressor vibration transmission.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 The pipe outlet 120 is located at the bottom of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner. The refrigerant pipe assembly 210 is bent at the pipe outlet 120 and exposed outside the panel 110. The wire channel 140 extends upward from the middle of the first refrigerant pipe 211 and the second refrigerant pipe 212 to the wire outlet 130 (to more clearly show the relationship between the wire 220 and the wire outlet 130, part of the fixing structure is hidden). The wire 220 inside the indoor unit 100 is located at the wire outlet 130 through the wire channel 140. The protective sleeve 240 extends to the wire outlet 130. The wire 220 directly enters the protective sleeve 240, while the two bent refrigerant pipe assemblies 210 extend into the protective sleeve 240. The drain pipe 230 hangs down from inside the protective sleeve 240. The upper end of the piping cover 300 presses the protective sleeve 240, covering the wire 220, the protective sleeve 240 and the drain pipe 230 inside, making them invisible from the outside. In other embodiments, the wire outlet 130 is a separately opened circular hole, rectangular hole, prismatic hole, etc.

[0054] For ease of installation, the pipe cover 300 and the indoor air conditioner unit 100 are fixed by snap-fit. In a further design, in addition to the snap-fit ​​fixing of the pipe cover 300 and the indoor air conditioner unit 100, screw fastening is added. In this way, the snap-fit ​​fixing solves the cumbersome operation in the fastening process and makes fastening easier. Moreover, while ensuring the fixing effect, it reduces the number of screws required, thereby improving the installation efficiency to a certain extent.

[0055] Specifically, the pipe cover 300 has buckles on both sides (not shown in the figure), and the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has corresponding slots. The slots are located on both sides of the connecting pipe assembly 200. The buckles and slots cooperate to fix the pipe cover 300 to the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0056] 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.
