[0029] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. 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.

[0030] A water pan 100 according to embodiments of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in Figures 1-8 The water pan 100 according to embodiments of the present application comprises a pan body 1 and a filter 6.

[0031] The pan body 1 has a water receiving cavity 11, and a wall surface of the water receiving cavity 11 is provided with a drain port 113, i.e. the drain port 113 penetrates through the pan body 1. The filter 6 is arranged in the water receiving cavity 11 and cooperates with the drain port 113.

[0032] The water pan 100 according to embodiments of the present application is provided with the filter 6 cooperating with the drain port 113 in the water receiving cavity 11, so that the filter 6 can be used to filter the water in the water receiving cavity 11. In this way, the filter 6 can be used to intercept impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11, so as to avoid that the water in the water receiving cavity 11 is discharged slowly or even cannot be discharged due to the impurities blocking the drain port 113, and further avoid that the water in the water receiving cavity 11 overflows the water pan 100 to cause corrosion of the ceiling, wall body and other parts around the air conditioner.

[0033] The water filtered of impurities is discharged through the drain port 113. Therefore, the water pan 100 according to embodiments of the present application has the advantages of not being easily blocked and smooth water discharge of the drain port 113.

[0034] The air conditioner 1000 according to embodiments of the present application comprises the water pan 100. Therefore, the air conditioner 1000 according to embodiments of the present application has the advantages of smooth water discharge, no water leakage and no corrosion of the ceiling, wall body and other parts around the air conditioner.

[0035] As shown in Figures 1-8 The air conditioner 1000 according to embodiments of the present application comprises a casing 300, an evaporator 200 and a water pan 100. The evaporator 200 and the water pan 100 are both arranged in the casing 300. The air conditioner 1000 according to embodiments of the present application can be a wall-mounted air conditioner, a floor standing air conditioner, a ducted air conditioner (duct type air conditioner) and the like.

[0036] The water pan 100 comprises the pan body 1 and the filter 6. The pan body 1 comprises a first side plate 12, a second side plate 13, a third side plate 14, a fourth side plate 15 and a bottom plate 16. The first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13 are oppositely arranged (spaced apart) in a first preset direction, and the third side plate 14 and the fourth side plate 15 are oppositely arranged (spaced apart) in a second preset direction. The first side plate 12, the second side plate 13, the third side plate 14 and the fourth side plate 15 are arranged on the bottom plate 16, and the first side plate 12, the second side plate 13, the third side plate 14, the fourth side plate 15 and the bottom plate 16 define the water receiving cavity 11.

[0037] The drain port 113 is arranged on the first side plate 12, and the drain port 113 penetrates the first side plate 12 along a first preset direction. The first preset direction is perpendicular to a second preset direction. The first preset direction is indicated by an arrow in Figure 1 , and the second preset direction is indicated by an arrow in Figure 7 and Figure 8 . For example, the first preset direction can be the length direction of the water tray 100, and the second preset direction can be the width direction of the water tray 100.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 and Figures 3-7 , the filter piece 6 includes a plurality of filter grids 61, and the plurality of filter grids 61 are sequentially and spacedly arranged around the drain port 113. In this way, the structure of the filter piece 6 and the water tray 100 can be more reasonable.

[0039] Optionally, the spacing between two adjacent filter grids 61 is greater than or equal to 0.4 millimeters and less than or equal to 1 millimeter. In this way, not only can the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 be effectively intercepted so as to avoid the impurities from blocking the drain port 113, but also the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can smoothly pass through the gap between the two adjacent filter grids 61, so as to make the water in the water receiving cavity 11 quickly pass through the drain port 113 and be discharged.

[0040] Further optionally, the spacing between two adjacent filter grids 61 is greater than or equal to 0.5 millimeters and less than or equal to 0.8 millimeters. In this way, not only can the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 be more effectively intercepted so as to avoid the impurities from blocking the drain port 113, but also the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can more smoothly pass through the gap between the two adjacent filter grids 61, so as to make the water in the water receiving cavity 11 more quickly pass through the drain port 113 and be discharged.

[0041] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the drain port 113 is located between a part and another part of the plurality of filter grids 61 in the second preset direction, and the first preset direction is perpendicular to the second preset direction. In this way, the plurality of filter grids 61 can be better arranged around the drain port 113, so as to better intercept the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11, thereby further avoiding the impurities from blocking the drain port 113.

[0042] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the plurality of filter grids 61 are arranged in a first straight section 62, an arc-shaped section 63 and a second straight section 64 arranged in sequence, each of the first straight section 62, the arc-shaped section 63 and the second straight section 64 comprising a plurality of filter grids 61. The drain port 113 is located between the first straight section 62 and the second straight section 64 in the second preset direction. In this way, the plurality of filter grids 61 can be better arranged around the drain port 113, so as to better intercept impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11, thereby further avoiding the impurities from blocking the drain port 113.

[0043] The extension direction of the first straight section 62 can be parallel to the first preset direction. Alternatively, the angle between the extension direction of the first straight section 62 and the first preset direction is less than or equal to a preset angle. The extension direction of the second straight section 64 can be parallel to the first preset direction. Alternatively, the angle between the extension direction of the second straight section 64 and the first preset direction is less than or equal to a preset angle. In this way, the structure of the filter piece 6 can be more reasonable.

[0044] As shown in Figure 1 and Figures 3-7 As shown, the bottom wall surface 111 of the water receiving cavity 11 is provided with a drain groove 112 cooperating with the drain port 113. The drain groove 112 is located between the first straight section 62 and the second straight section 64 in the second preset direction. A part of the filter grids 61 of the arc-shaped section 63 is arranged on the bottom wall surface of the drain groove 112. In this way, the structure of the filter piece 6 and the water receiving tray 100 can be more reasonable.

[0045] Alternatively, the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 is connected to the first side plate 12. Alternatively, the distance between the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 and the first side plate 12 is less than or equal to a preset value. In this way, the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can be prevented from flowing to the drain port 113 through the gap between the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 and the first side plate 12, thereby further avoiding the impurities from blocking the drain port 113.

[0046] The last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 is connected to the first side plate 12. Alternatively, the distance between the last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 and the first side plate 12 is less than or equal to a preset value. In this way, the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can be prevented from flowing to the drain port 113 through the gap between the last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 and the first side plate 12, thereby further avoiding the impurities from blocking the drain port 113.

[0047] The first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 refers to the filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 farthest from the arc-shaped section 63 in the arrangement direction of the plurality of filter grids 61 (the extension direction of the filter piece 6). The last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 refers to the filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 farthest from the arc-shaped section 63 in the arrangement direction of the plurality of filter grids 61 (the extension direction of the filter piece 6).

[0048] Optionally, the distance between the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 and the first side plate 12 is greater than or equal to 0.4 mm and less than or equal to 1 mm. Further optionally, the distance between the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 and the first side plate 12 is greater than or equal to 0.5 mm and less than or equal to 0.8 mm. In this way, not only can the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 be effectively intercepted so as to avoid the impurities from blocking the water outlet 113, but also the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can smoothly pass through the gap between the first filter grid 61 of the first straight section 62 and the first side plate 12.

[0049] Optionally, the distance between the last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 and the first side plate 12 is greater than or equal to 0.4 mm and less than or equal to 1 mm. Further optionally, the distance between the last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 and the first side plate 12 is greater than or equal to 0.5 mm and less than or equal to 0.8 mm. In this way, not only can the impurities in the water in the water receiving cavity 11 be effectively intercepted so as to avoid the impurities from blocking the water outlet 113, but also the water in the water receiving cavity 11 can smoothly pass through the gap between the last filter grid 61 of the second straight section 64 and the first side plate 12.

[0050] As shown in Figure 1 and Figures 3-6 The plurality of filter grids 61 and the disc body 1 form a filtered cavity 66, and the filtered cavity 66 is open at the upper end and communicates with the water outlet 113. The filter element 6 further comprises a filter grid cover 65 arranged at the upper portion of the plurality of filter grids 61 to cover the upper end of the filtered cavity 66. In this way, the impurities can be prevented from falling into the filtered cavity 66 through the upper end of the filtered cavity 66, thereby further avoiding the impurities from blocking the water outlet 113.

[0051] In an example of the present application, the filter grid cover 65 is provided with a plurality of mounting grooves 651, and the upper portions of the plurality of filter grids 61 are correspondingly matched with the mounting grooves 651. In this way, the filter grid cover 65 can be more stably mounted on the plurality of filter grids 61, thereby making the structure of the filter element 6 more firm and further preventing the impurities from falling into the filtered cavity 66 through the upper end of the filtered cavity 66.

[0052] As shown in Figures 4-6As shown, the filter 6 further comprises a connecting portion 67 connected to the upper portion of each filter grid 61. The filter grid cover 65 is provided with a mounting groove 651, and at least a portion of the connecting portion 67 is fitted into the mounting groove 651. By providing the connecting portion 67 connected to the upper portion of each filter grid 61, the number of mounting grooves 651 on the filter grid cover 65 can be greatly reduced. Thus, not only the manufacturing difficulty of the filter grid cover 65 can be reduced, but also the filter grid cover 65 can be more conveniently and easily assembled to the connecting portion 67 (the plurality of filter grids 61).

[0053] Optionally, the connecting portion 67 is integrally formed with the upper portion of each filter grid 61, i.e. the connecting portion 67 and the plurality of filter grids 61 are integrally formed. The lower portion of the filter grid 61 is connected to the bottom wall surface 111 of the water receiving cavity 11, i.e. the lower portion of the filter grid 61 is connected to the bottom plate 16. For example, the plurality of filter grids 61 and the bottom plate 16 are integrally formed, i.e. the plurality of filter grids 61 and the disc body 1 are integrally formed. Thus, the plurality of filter grids 61 (the filter 6) can be more stably mounted to the disc body 1. The up-down direction is indicated by an arrow D in Figure 5 and Figure 6 .

[0054] Optionally, the depth of the mounting groove 651 is greater than or equal to 2 millimeters and less than or equal to 4 millimeters. Thus, the upper portion of the filter grid 61 or at least a portion of the connecting portion 67 can be more stably fitted into the mounting groove 651, so that the structure of the filter 6 is more firm, and further prevents impurities from falling into the filtered cavity 66 through the upper end of the filtered cavity 66.

[0055] Further optionally, the depth of the mounting groove 651 is greater than or equal to 2.5 millimeters and less than or equal to 3 millimeters. Thus, the upper portion of the filter grid 61 or at least a portion of the connecting portion 67 can be more stably fitted into the mounting groove 651, so that the structure of the filter 6 is more firm, and further prevents impurities from falling into the filtered cavity 66 through the upper end of the filtered cavity 66.

[0056] Optionally, the width of the mounting groove 651 is greater than or equal to 0.6 millimeters and less than or equal to 1.5 millimeters. Thus, the upper portion of the filter grid 61 or at least a portion of the connecting portion 67 can be more conveniently and easily fitted into the mounting groove 651, and the filter grid 61 and the connecting portion 67 can have a certain thickness to improve their structural strength.

[0057] Further optionally, the width of the mounting groove 651 is greater than or equal to 0.8 millimeters and less than or equal to 1.2 millimeters. Thus, the upper portion of the filter grid 61 or at least a portion of the connecting portion 67 can be more conveniently and easily fitted into the mounting groove 651, and the filter grid 61 and the connecting portion 67 can have a certain thickness to improve their structural strength.

[0058] As shown in Figures 1-4 The water pan 100 further comprises a drain pipe 71 connected with the drain port 113, and the drain pipe 71 extends out of the pan body 1, i.e. at least a part of the drain pipe 71 is located outside the pan body 1 (the water receiving cavity 11). By arranging the drain pipe 71 connected with the drain port 113, the water in the water pan 100 can be further ensured to be drained to the preset position. Optionally, the drain pipe 71 is arranged on the outer side face 121 of the first side plate 12, so that the structure of the water pan 100 can be made more reasonable.

[0059] The water pan 100 further comprises a first reinforcing rib assembly connected with each of the drain pipe 71 and the outer side face 121 of the first side plate 12. In this way, the structural strength at the first side plate 12, the drain pipe 71 and the drain port 113 can be effectively improved, so that the connection between the drain pipe 71 and the drain port 113 can be prevented from being broken.

[0060] The water pan 100 further comprises a second reinforcing rib assembly connected with each of the inner side face 122 of the first side plate 12 and the bottom wall face 111 of the water receiving cavity 11. The inner side face 122 of the first side plate 12 is a side wall face of the water receiving cavity 11. In this way, the structural strength at the first side plate 12 and the drain port 113 can be effectively improved.

[0061] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first reinforcing rib assembly comprises a plurality of reinforcing ribs 72, each of which is connected with each of the drain pipe 71 and the outer side face 121 of the first side plate 12, and the plurality of reinforcing ribs 72 are arranged around the drain pipe 71. In this way, the structural strength at the first side plate 12, the drain pipe 71 and the drain port 113 can be more effectively improved, so that the connection between the drain pipe 71 and the drain port 113 can be further prevented from being broken.

[0062] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first reinforcing rib assembly (the plurality of reinforcing ribs 72) comprises an upper reinforcing rib 72a, a lower reinforcing rib 72b, a first side reinforcing rib 72c and a second side reinforcing rib 72d. The upper reinforcing rib 72a, the lower reinforcing rib 72b, the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d are all arranged on the outer side face 121 of the first side plate 12.

[0063] The lower end of the upper reinforcing rib 72a is connected with the drain pipe 71, the side end of the first side reinforcing rib 72c is connected with the drain pipe 71, and the side end of the second side reinforcing rib 72d is connected with the drain pipe 71. The drain pipe 71 is located between the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d in the second preset direction. The lower reinforcing rib 72b has an arc-shaped face connected with the drain pipe 71.

[0064] Therefore, the structural strength of the first side plate 12, the drain pipe 71 and the drain opening 113 can be effectively improved, the connection between the drain pipe 71 and the drain opening 113 can be further avoided from being broken, the arrangement of the plurality of reinforcing ribs 72 can be more reasonable, and the number of the reinforcing ribs 72 can be reduced.

[0065] For example, the upper reinforcing rib 72a, the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d are generally in the shape of a right triangle, i.e., the upper reinforcing rib 72a, the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d each have a first right-angled face and a second right-angled face. The first right-angled face of the upper reinforcing rib 72a, the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d is connected to the outer side face 121 of the first side plate 12, and the second right-angled face of the upper reinforcing rib 72a, the first side reinforcing rib 72c and the second side reinforcing rib 72d is connected to the drain pipe 71.

[0066] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the second reinforcing rib assembly includes a third side reinforcing rib 73 and a fourth side reinforcing rib 74. The third side reinforcing rib 73 is connected to each of the inner side face 122 of the first side plate 12 and the bottom wall face 111 of the water receiving cavity 11. The fourth side reinforcing rib 74 is connected to each of the inner side face 122 of the first side plate 12 and the bottom wall face 111 of the water receiving cavity 11. The drain opening 113 is located between the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 in the second preset direction. Therefore, the structural strength of the first side plate 12 and the drain opening 113 can be effectively improved.

[0067] Optionally, the third side reinforcing rib 73 is a plurality of third side reinforcing ribs 73, and the plurality of third side reinforcing ribs 73 are arranged at intervals along the second preset direction. The fourth side reinforcing rib 74 is a plurality of fourth side reinforcing ribs 74, and the plurality of fourth side reinforcing ribs 74 are arranged at intervals along the second preset direction. Therefore, the structural strength of the first side plate 12 and the drain opening 113 can be effectively improved.

[0068] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the first straight section 62 and the second straight section 64 are located between the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 in the second preset direction. Therefore, the size of the filter element 6 can be reduced, the filter element 6 can be avoided from interfering with the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74, and the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the water receiving tray 100 can be reduced.

[0069] For example, the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 are generally in the shape of a right triangle, i.e., the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 each have a third right-angled face and a fourth right-angled face. The third right-angled face of the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 is connected to the inner side face 122 of the first side plate 12, and the fourth right-angled face of the third side reinforcing rib 73 and the fourth side reinforcing rib 74 is connected to the bottom wall face 111 of the water receiving cavity 11.

[0070] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the water pan 100 further comprises a drainage bump 2. The drainage bump 2 is arranged in the water receiving cavity 11, and the drainage bump 2 has a first drainage surface 21. An upper edge of the first drainage surface 21 is matched with an upper portion of the third side plate 14.

[0071] The inventor of the present application found through research that after the water pan 100 is assembled into the air conditioner 1000, the third side plate 14 of the water pan 100 is adjacent to the air outlet 310 of the air conditioner 1000. As a result, the upper portion of the third side plate 14 is prone to condensation. The existing water pan of the air conditioner cannot effectively collect the condensation generated on the upper portion of the third side plate, resulting in the condensation generated on the upper portion of the third side plate flowing out of the air conditioner, and further causing corrosion of the ceiling, wall and other parts.

[0072] According to the water pan 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the upper edge of the first drainage surface 21 of the drainage bump 2 is matched with the upper portion of the third side plate 14, so that the condensation generated on the upper portion of the third side plate 14 can be guided to the first drainage surface 21, and then the condensation moves downward along the first drainage surface 21.

[0073] Since the first drainage surface 21 (the drainage bump 2) is located in the water receiving cavity 11, the first drainage surface 21 can guide the condensation generated on the upper portion of the third side plate 14 into the water receiving cavity 11. As a result, a series of problems such as ceiling corrosion and wall corrosion caused by the condensation generated on the upper portion of the third side plate 14 flowing out of the air conditioner 1000 can be avoided.

[0074] As shown in Figure 8 , the third side plate 14 of the water pan 100 is adjacent to the air outlet 310. For example, the third side plate 14 of the water pan 100 is adjacent to the air outlet 310 in a second preset direction. Since the third side plate 14 is adjacent to the air outlet 310, the temperature of the third side plate 14 itself differs greatly from the ambient temperature, and the upper portion of the third side plate 14 is prone to condensation.

[0075] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the third side plate 14 comprises a plate body 141 and an outward turning edge 142, and the plate body 141 is arranged on the bottom plate 16. The outward turning edge 142 is arranged on the upper surface of the plate body 141, and at least a portion of the upper surface of the outward turning edge 142 is a first inclined surface 143. A lower edge of the first inclined surface 143 is connected with the upper edge of the first drainage surface 21, and the lower edge of the first inclined surface 143 is located on the inner side of the upper edge of the first inclined surface 143. That is, the lower edge of the first inclined surface 143 is adjacent to the middle portion of the water receiving cavity 11 relative to the upper edge of the first inclined surface 143.

[0076] By making at least a part of the upper surface of the out-turned edge 142 a first inclined surface 143, and making the lower edge of the first inclined surface 143 connected with the upper edge of the first drainage surface 21, the condensation generated on the upper surface of the third side plate 14 can be more easily and smoothly drained onto the first drainage surface 21, so as to further avoid the condensation generated on the upper surface of the third side plate 14 from flowing out of the air conditioner 1000.

[0077] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the drainage bump 2 further comprises a transition curved surface 22, the upper edge of the transition curved surface 22 is connected with the lower edge of the first drainage surface 21, and the lower edge of the transition curved surface 22 is connected with the upper edge of the upper surface of the inclined portion 161.

[0078] By providing the transition curved surface 22 between the upper surface of the inclined portion 161 and the first drainage surface 21, the condensation on the first drainage surface 21 can be more smoothly drained onto the upper surface of the inclined portion 161, and then more smoothly drained into the drain groove 112, so as to avoid the condensation from being stuck between the upper surface of the inclined portion 161 and the first drainage surface 21. In this way, the condensation generated on the upper portion (upper surface) of the third side plate 14 can be more smoothly drained into the drain groove 112 of the water receiving cavity 11, and then drained out through the drain opening of the water receiving tray 100.

[0079] Optionally, a part of the bottom plate 16 of the tray body 1 constitutes the drainage bump 2, and a part of the upper surface of the bottom plate 16 constitutes the first drainage surface 21 and the transition curved surface 22. In this way, the structure of the water receiving tray 100 can be more reasonable.

[0080] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the water receiving tray 100 further comprises a filling bump 3, the filling bump 3 is arranged in the water receiving cavity 11, and the filling bump 3 is adjacent to the fourth side plate 15 in the second predetermined direction.

[0081] In this way, after the water receiving tray 100 and the evaporator assembly are assembled together, the filling bump 3 can fill into the cavity between the evaporator 200, the top cover plate and the air duct mounting plate. In this way, the cavity volume between the evaporator 200, the top cover plate and the air duct mounting plate can be effectively reduced, so as to effectively reduce the cavity abnormal sound generated when the air conditioner 1000 is running.

[0082] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the filling bulge 3 has a second drainage surface 31. After the water receiving tray 100 and the evaporator assembly are assembled together, at least a portion of the second drainage surface 31 is located below the evaporator 200 and opposite to the evaporator 200 in the vertical direction. Therefore, condensation generated on the fins of the evaporator 200 can fall onto the second drainage surface 31 and flow through it to the bottom of the water receiving cavity 11, thereby better collecting and discharging the condensation generated on the fins of the evaporator 200.

[0083] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, another part of the base plate 16 of the tray 1 forms a filling protrusion 3, and another part of the upper surface of the base plate 16 forms a second drainage surface 31. This makes the structure of the water receiving tray 100 more reasonable.

[0084] like Figure 8 As shown, the evaporator 200 is inclined, and the lower end 210 of the evaporator 200 is adjacent to the filling protrusion 3 of the water receiving pan 100. Thus, when the evaporator 200 undergoes a slight displacement due to vibration or other reasons, the lower end 210 of the evaporator 200 can abut against the filling protrusion 3, thereby using the filling protrusion 3 to support the lower end 210 of the evaporator 200 and keep the evaporator 200 stable.

[0085] like Figure 8 As shown, a portion of the second drainage surface 31 of the filling bulge 3 is parallel to the end face of the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200, and the end face of the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200 is adjacent to this portion of the second drainage surface 31. For example, the end face of the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200 is spaced 1 mm to 2 mm from this portion of the second drainage surface 31. Thus, when the evaporator 200 experiences a small displacement due to vibration or other reasons, this portion of the second drainage surface 31 can better support the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200, thereby better stabilizing the evaporator 200.

[0086] Optionally, a flexible layer is filled between the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200 and the filling protrusion 3. This prevents the fins of the evaporator 200 from damaging the filling protrusion 3. For example, a sponge layer is filled between the lower end portion 210 of the evaporator 200 and the second drainage surface 31 of the filling protrusion 3.
