Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceiling-mounted air conditioning technology, and in particular to a waterproof wiring connector and a ceiling-mounted air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] The outdoor unit of a vehicle air conditioner is installed on the outside of the vehicle. When water enters the outdoor unit, water droplets will flow down the cable from top to bottom, damaging the electronic components inside the air conditioner box and causing a safety hazard.

[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN220510678U discloses a wiring structure for an outdoor unit of a vehicle air conditioner and a vehicle air conditioner. The wiring structure includes a chassis and an electrical box mounted on the chassis. Electrical components are installed inside the outdoor unit, and cables are connected to these components. The electrical box houses the cables and has an inlet for the cables to enter. The chassis has cable fixing holes, and the cables are fixed to these holes using fasteners. The plane of the cable fixing holes is lower than the plane of the lowest point of the inlet. A rubber ring is provided at the inlet. The rubber ring and the cable fixing holes provide waterproofing and secure fastening.

[0004] The problem with existing technology is that the steps for removing and installing rubber rings and fixing cables are complicated and inconvenient. Therefore, existing technology needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof wiring connector and a ceiling-mounted air conditioner that are easy to install and have both waterproof and fixing functions.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: a waterproof wire threading connector and a top-mounted air conditioner, including a connecting column that runs through the middle, an end cap sleeved on one end of the connecting column, a first through hole on the end side wall of the connecting column, and a second through hole on the end cap, with the first through hole and the second through hole being in corresponding positions.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the end cap is T-shaped, and the end cap includes an extension and a cap body. The extension is inserted into the connecting post, and the cap body covers the port of the connecting post.

[0008] The width of the cap body is greater than that of the connecting post, and the inner circumference of the cap body is provided with a slot, which is engaged with the outer wall of the connecting post.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a wire-passing groove is provided on the side wall of the extension portion along its extension direction.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the end cap is made of rubber, and the extension and the cap body are integrally formed.

[0011] A top-mounted air conditioner includes a housing and a waterproof wiring connector as described above. The housing has a wiring hole, the waterproof wiring connector is located inside the housing, and the end of the connecting post away from the end cap is fixedly connected to the wiring hole.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A waterproof cable connector is provided on the cable passage hole of the top-mounted air conditioner. The cables of electronic devices are passed through the first through hole, the second through hole, the cable groove and the cable passage hole. The connecting post can fix the cable. The extension of the end cap and the cap body can prevent water from flowing into the top-mounted air conditioner box. Therefore, the waterproof cable connector has both cable fixing and waterproof functions. At the same time, the waterproof cable connector can be disassembled and assembled by simply plugging and unplugging the end cap, which is convenient and quick. Attached Figure Description
