DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein with reference to the attached drawings. The following description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings in which like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. The following description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings in which like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. The following exemplary embodiments described herein represent the best known uses of the present disclosure. However, the described embodiments are not intended to be exhaustive of all embodiments consistent with the disclosure. Rather, they are intended to be illustrative only so that others skilled in the art can better understand the application and its practical use and advantages. Accordingly, numerous modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the disclosure.

[0033] According to a first aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a chassis assembly 100 of an air conditioner outdoor unit is provided, which comprises Figures 1 to 4The chassis assembly 100 includes a main body 10 and a fastener 200, and the compressor 300 can be fixed on the main body 10 through the fastener 200. For example, the bottom of the compressor 300 can be provided with a rubber sleeve 310, the rubber sleeve 310 is used to be sleeved on the outer periphery of the fastener 200, and the body of the compressor 300 is supported on the rubber sleeve 310. The rubber sleeve 310 can play a role of reducing vibration and balancing the compressor 300. The top of the main body 10 of the chassis assembly 100 is formed with a concave groove 11 and a flow guide groove 12. The fastener 200 is fixed in the groove 11, one end of the flow guide groove 12 is communicated with the groove 11, and the other end is communicated with the outside of the groove 11, so as to guide the liquid in the groove 11 out. It can be understood that the groove 11 and the flow guide groove 12 are both structures with groove bottoms, that is, they are groove structures that do not penetrate the main body 10. The fastener 200 is installed into the groove 11 from one side of the top of the main body 10. The fastener 200 is arranged in the groove 11, and the flatness of the groove 11 can ensure that the compressor 300 is placed flat. The flow guide groove 12 can be arranged lower than the groove 11 to guide the liquid in the groove 11 out. It should be noted that, unless otherwise indicated, the terms "upper", "lower", "top" and "bottom" used in the embodiments of the present disclosure are defined according to the usage habit of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0034] Through the above technical solution, the groove 11 is formed on the top side of the main body 10 of the chassis assembly 100, so that the fastener 200 for installing the compressor 300 is located in the groove 11. The flow guide groove 12 is arranged to guide the liquid in the groove 11 out, so as to prevent the condensate water from staying in the groove 11 for a long time, causing the fastener 200 to rust and affecting the stability or causing the compressor to vibrate abnormally. In addition, the liquid can flow into a specific area from the flow guide groove 12, avoiding direct dripping and affecting the use experience.

[0035] In related technologies, a hole is usually opened on the chassis, and the fastener is welded in the hole. After the fastener is welded with the chassis, there is a dead angle that cannot be painted when spraying, which causes the through hole to rust for a long time, and then spreads to the fixed area of the compressor, causing the compressor to vibrate for a long time, resulting in loud noise of the compressor, and possibly causing the compressor to fall off. In addition, in order to facilitate the insertion of the fastener into the through hole, the through hole is usually arranged to be larger. When the melting point of the welding surface of the fastener is not completely melted, the fastener is not completely attached to the chassis, and the condensate water will drip along the through hole. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the fastener is fixed by welding, the fastener is in the groove and does not contact the external environment of the air conditioner outdoor unit, avoiding rust caused by exposure to the outside world, and improving the installation stability of the compressor 300.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 3The body 10 is provided with a water channel 13, and the flow guide groove 12 can be in communication with the water channel 13. The water channel 13 can be arranged to be lower than the flow guide groove 12. The water channel 13 can be arranged to have a large area and can store more water. Since the amount of condensed water is small, the condensed water in the water channel 13 will evaporate over time.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the water channel 13 can be formed with a water channel opening 131 for communication with the outside of the air conditioner outdoor unit. The liquid in the recess 11 can flow from the flow guide groove 12 into the water channel 13 of the chassis assembly 100 and be discharged from the water channel opening 131 at a specific position. The water channel opening 131 of the water channel 13 can be in communication with the discharge water pipe of the air conditioner outdoor unit, so as to discharge the condensed water outside the air conditioner outdoor unit.

[0038] In combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the top of the body 10 can be formed with an upper convex boss 15, and the recess 11 can be formed on the boss 15. The recess 11 is configured in a downwardly recessed form from the top of the boss 15. The provision of the boss 15 can provide a recessed space for the recess 11 on the one hand, and provide a raised installation height for the compressor 300 on the other hand, so that the compressor 300 has sufficient installation space in height, and also facilitates the flow of liquid to structures lower than the boss 15.

[0039] As shown in Figure 3 , since the flow guide groove 12 is formed by being recessed downward from the boss 15, the stress originally formed on the plane of the boss 15 can be transferred to the flow guide groove 12, so that the stress on the plane of the boss 15 is released, thereby avoiding resonance to avoid noise or abnormal sound, improving the reliability of the product, and improving the user experience.

[0040] As shown in Figure 3 , the outer periphery of the boss 15 can be configured with a multi-stage pressing structure 16, and the multi-stage pressing structure 16 is configured to have multiple heights. The multi-stage pressing structure 16 can increase the rigidity of the boss 15 in the circumferential direction, and ensure the stability of the chassis assembly 100 in installing the compressor 300.

[0041] As shown in Figure 3 , when the boss 15 is provided, the flow guide groove 12 can extend from the recess 11 to the edge of the boss 15, so that the liquid can flow down from the boss 15, for example, into the water channel 13 located at a lower position.

[0042] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the number of the grooves 11 can be multiple, and the number of the bosses 15 can be the same as that of the grooves 11, that is, one groove 11 is arranged on each boss 15. In this embodiment, the multiple bosses 15 can be arranged at intervals, so that the multiple bosses 15 can be independent of each other, ensuring the strength of each foot of the compressor 300, and avoiding resonance of the compressor 300.

[0043] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the grooves 11 is at least three, and the multiple grooves 11 are not arranged in a line, so that the multiple grooves 11 can determine a plane, so that the installation flatness of the compressor 300 is avoided, and the situation of skew is avoided, thereby improving the reliability during work.

[0044] Referring to Figure 4 As shown in the figure, a gap is formed between the inner wall of the groove 11 and the outer wall of the fastener 200, and the gap can be 0.5mm-1mm, so as to facilitate positioning and welding of the fastener 200, and also to ensure effective support after the compressor 300 is placed.

[0045] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the fastener 200 can include a base 210 and a column 220 formed on the base 210, and the diameter of the base 210 can be larger than that of the column 220. The base 210 is fixed in the groove 11, and the column 220 is used for connecting the compressor 300, for example, for sleeving the rubber sleeve 310. The base 210 is arranged to have a larger diameter, which can ensure the stability of the connection, and the diameter of the column 220 can be smaller, so as not to occupy a large space.

[0046] After the fastener 200 is placed in the groove 11, the height of the base 210 is 1mm-1.5mm smaller than the depth of the groove 11, for example, 1.2mm smaller, so as to ensure that the fastener 200 can be completely embedded in the groove 11 after welding, so as to ensure that the compressor 300 is placed stably, and the base 210 has sufficient thickness and strength to support the compressor 300.

[0047] The groove 11 can be arranged to have a certain draft angle, and the draft angle can be not less than 15 degrees, so as to facilitate the molding of the chassis assembly 100, and to play a guiding role when the fastener 200 is placed in the groove 11.

[0048] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The bottom end of the fastener 200 can be formed with a welding bump 230, that is, the welding bump 230 can be formed at the bottom of the base 210, and the fastener 200 is connected to the bottom of the groove 11 through the welding bump 230. The number of the welding bump 230 is at least three, so as to ensure that the perpendicularity of the fastener 200 after welding is not greater than 0.5.

[0049] The height of the solder bump 230 can be 0.3mm-1.2mm to ensure that there is enough solder material and to avoid material waste.

[0050] According to a second aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, an air conditioner outdoor unit is provided, which comprises a compressor 300 and a chassis assembly 100. The chassis assembly 100 is the above-mentioned chassis assembly, and the compressor 300 is fixed to the main body 10 by the fastener 200. The air conditioner outdoor unit can further comprise a front panel, a back panel, and side panels, which together with the chassis assembly 100 enclose a cavity in which the compressor 300 is accommodated. The air conditioner outdoor unit comprises all the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned chassis assembly 100, which will not be repeated here.
