Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner housing connection components, and in particular to an air conditioner housing connection component. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of modern home appliance technology, consumers have put forward higher requirements for the functionality and ease of use of home appliances. In air conditioning products, the ease of use and stability of the panel directly affect the user experience.

[0003] Most air conditioner panel hinges on the market use the traditional rotating shaft connection method. Although this method is simple in structure, it has problems such as limited opening angle and insufficient stability. In order to improve these problems, some manufacturers have tried to use auxiliary structures such as springs or dampers to realize the panel's hovering function, but these structures often increase the complexity of the product and the manufacturing cost.

[0029] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an air conditioner housing connection assembly, including a hinge 1, a connecting shaft 3, a base 2, an arc-shaped suspension rod 4, and a latch 5;

[0031] Both the hinge head 1 and the base 2 have an L-shaped cross-section, and the horizontal portions of both the hinge head 1 and the base 2 are loosened around the connecting shaft 3.

[0032] One end of the arc-shaped suspension rod 4 is fixedly connected to the vertical part surface of the hinge head 1, and a through hole corresponding to the free end of the arc-shaped suspension rod 4 is opened on the vertical part surface of the base 2;

[0033] The latch 5 is installed on the surface of the vertical part of the base 2 to restrict the arc-shaped suspension rod 4 from moving in and out of the through hole in one direction.

[0034] The arc-shaped hovering rod 4 has an arc-shaped groove 41 on one side, and a number of one-way helical teeth 42 are evenly spaced in the arc-shaped groove 41. The other side of the arc-shaped hovering rod 4 is a smooth surface. The latch 5 includes a locking tooth 52, which engages with the one-way helical teeth 42 to lock together.

[0035] The latch 5 also includes a lock seat 51, which is fixed to the surface of the vertical part of the base 2. The lock seat 51 has a lock hole that matches the through hole. The top of the lock hole has a groove, and the bottom of the lock tooth 52 is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the groove.

[0036] A pressing handle 53 is provided on the side of the locking tooth 52 away from the arc-shaped suspension rod 4;

[0037] When in use, flip the air conditioner panel upwards. With the cooperation of the hinge 1, connecting shaft 3 and base 2, the one-way oblique tooth 42 on the arc-shaped hovering rod 4 is not affected by the locking tooth 52 and can continue to move upwards. When the air conditioner panel is flipped to the ideal angle, the air conditioner panel cannot be reset under the restriction of the locking tooth 52 and remains in the hovered open state, thereby realizing multi-angle hovering control of the air conditioner panel. When closing the air conditioner panel, simply press the pressing handle 53 manually to make the locking tooth 52 move away from the one-way oblique tooth 42, and then the air conditioner panel can be closed.

[0038] In this embodiment, the end of the arc-shaped groove 41 away from the latch 5 is smoothly designed. When the locking tooth 52 enters the end of the latch 5, the angle between the panel and the air conditioner housing is 10-20°. The smooth design of the end of the arc-shaped groove 41 is beneficial to the fact that when the angle between the panel and the air conditioner housing is less than a certain range, such as 20°, it is not necessary to press the pressing handle 53 to complete the panel closure.

[0039] In this embodiment, the end of the arc-shaped suspension rod 4 away from the hinge head 1 passes through the through hole and is fixedly installed with a limiting block, which cannot pass through the through hole.

[0040] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0041] When the air conditioning panel is flipped upwards, with the cooperation of the hinge 1, connecting shaft 3 and base 2, the one-way oblique tooth 42 on the arc-shaped hovering rod 4 is not affected by the locking tooth 52 and can continue to move upwards. When the air conditioning panel is flipped to the ideal angle, the air conditioning panel cannot be reset under the restriction of the locking tooth 52 and remains in the hovered open state, thereby realizing multi-angle hovering control of the air conditioning panel. When closing the air conditioning panel, simply press the pressing handle 53 manually to make the locking tooth 52 move away from the one-way oblique tooth 42, and then the air conditioning panel can be closed.

[0042] The circuits, electronic components, and modules involved are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this utility model does not involve any improvement to the software and methods.

[0043] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent modifications made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.

[0044] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
