However, the design is not limited to this, in other embodiments, the limiting block 40 can also be arranged at the end of the bottom disc 10 far away from the motor 22.

[0044] Specifically, in the embodiment of the utility model, the bottom disc 10 includes the bottom disc main body 12 and the two end walls 13 at the length direction both ends of the air outlet 11, the motor 22 and the limit block 40 are separately arranged on the opposite sides of the end wall 13, the limit block 40 is connected with the bottom disc main body 12, and also connected with the end wall 13, so setting, the motor 22 and the limit block 40 are fixed on the opposite sides of the same end wall 13, on the basis of not affecting the rotation of the air deflector 21, the connecting end of the air deflector 21 is as close to the end wall 13 as possible, and when the air deflector 21 opens to the preset position, can reliably abut the second limit surface 421 of the limit block 40, ensure the limiting effect of the air deflector 21, and the limit block 40 is connected with the bottom disc main body 12 and the end wall 13 simultaneously, can effectively increase the effective connection area of the limit block 40 and the bottom disc 10, improve the connection strength of the limit block 40 and the bottom disc 10, further guarantee the limiting effect of the air deflector 21, also can make the limit block 40 not occupy the air outlet 11 place air outlet space, reduce the influence of the limit block 40 to the air conditioner air outlet.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 8 In the embodiment of the utility model, the limit block 40 includes the convex convex 42, the second limit surface 421 is formed on the back of the convex 42, it can be understood that the limit block 40 is at least partially located on the rotation path of the air deflector 21, as Figure 3 The wall-mounted air conditioner as shown in the figure, the limit block 40 includes the block main body 41 and the convex 42, the block main body 41 is connected with the bottom disc main body 12 and the end wall 13, the convex 42 is connected below the block main body 41, and is connected with the end wall 13, the convex 42 is also located on the rotation path of the air deflector 21, and its back has the second limit surface 421 for restricting the air deflector 21 further rotates, that is, the air deflector 21 can rotate clockwise towards the back of the bottom disc 10, and stops rotating when abutting the second limit surface 421, at this time, the air deflector 21 opens to the preset position. Wherein, the cross-sectional shape of the convex 42 includes but is not limited to triangle, semicircle.
