Technical Field

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

[0002] Currently, with the continuous improvement of living standards, air conditioners have become a common household appliance. In modern floor-standing air conditioners, the air deflector and air outlet frame typically rotate relative to each other using a rotating shaft and bushing. However, this means that the air deflector remains closed during packaging and transportation. If the air deflector is subjected to external impact, the force will be directly transmitted to the rotating shaft, causing deformation or even breakage, thus affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The problem solved by this utility model is how to effectively protect the air guide door during the packaging and transportation of air conditioners, improve safety, prevent the rotating shaft from deforming or even breaking under external impact, and enhance the user experience.

[0005] Firstly, this utility model provides an air conditioner housing, including an air outlet frame and an air guide damper. The air outlet frame includes a support arm with a shaft hole, and the air guide damper includes an extension platform with a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft rotatably engages with the shaft hole. The air outlet frame also includes a connecting block connected to the support arm and disposed outside the shaft hole. The connecting block is used to abut against the extension platform under external force when the air guide damper rotates to close the air outlet frame. Compared with the prior art, the air conditioner housing provided by this utility model, due to the use of a rotating shaft and shaft hole with rotatable engagement, as well as a connecting block connected to the support arm, can effectively protect the air guide damper during the packaging and transportation of the air conditioner, improve safety, prevent the rotating shaft from deforming or even breaking under external impact, and enhance the user experience.

[0006] Furthermore, the connecting block is positioned perpendicular to the support arm, and the rotating shaft is positioned perpendicular to the extension platform.

[0007] Furthermore, the extension platform is provided with a clearance groove, which is used to allow space for the connecting block.

[0008] Furthermore, the connecting block is arc-shaped, and the arc of the connecting block is the same as the arc of the shaft hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting block is equipped with reinforcing ribs, which are connected to the support arm.

[0010] Furthermore, a reinforcing rib is provided on the side of the connecting block near the shaft hole, and the end face of the reinforcing rib is flush with the inner wall of the shaft hole.

[0011] Furthermore, there are multiple reinforcing ribs, which are spaced apart and extend in a direction perpendicular to the support arm.

[0012] Furthermore, there are multiple support arms and extension platforms. Multiple support arms are spaced apart along the height direction of the air outlet frame, and each support arm cooperates with an extension platform.

[0013] Furthermore, there are multiple air deflectors, which are arranged side by side and all cooperate with the air outlet frame.

[0014] Secondly, this utility model provides an air conditioner, including the aforementioned air conditioner housing. The housing includes an air outlet frame and an air guide damper. The air outlet frame includes a support arm with a shaft hole. The air guide damper includes an extension platform with a rotating shaft, which rotatably engages with the shaft hole.

[0024] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] First Embodiment

[0026] Please refer to the reference. Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides an air conditioner housing 100 for shielding and protecting the internal components of the air conditioner. It effectively protects the air deflector 120 during packaging and transportation, improving safety and preventing the rotating shaft 121 from deforming or even breaking under external impact, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0027] It should be noted that the air conditioner housing 100 is used in air conditioner cabinet units, which are placed on the indoor floor. These cabinet units blow hot or cold air into the room to achieve heating or cooling functions. Specifically, the air conditioner cabinet unit includes the air conditioner housing 100, a fan (not shown), and an evaporator (not shown). Both the fan and evaporator are installed inside the air conditioner housing 100. The housing 100 serves to shield and protect the fan and evaporator. The fan generates negative pressure to drive airflow and form an outlet airflow. The evaporator exchanges heat with the outlet airflow to achieve the heating or cooling function of the outlet airflow, meeting user needs.

[0028] The air conditioner housing 100 includes an air outlet frame 110 and an air guide damper 120. The fan and evaporator are both located inside the air outlet frame 110, while the air guide damper 120 is rotatably located outside the air outlet frame 110. The air guide damper 120 can rotate relative to the air outlet frame 110, and the air outlet frame 110 can limit the movement of the air guide damper 120. Specifically, when the air conditioner is running normally, the air guide damper 120 rotates to open the air outlet frame 110, allowing airflow to pass through and be blown outwards, thus achieving heat exchange. When the air conditioner is turned off, the air guide damper 120 rotates to close the air outlet frame 110, preventing external dust from entering the air conditioner and facilitating packaging and transportation.

[0029] Furthermore, the air outlet frame 110 includes a support arm 112 with a shaft hole 111, and the air guide door 120 includes an extension platform 122 with a rotating shaft 121. The extension platform 122 is attached to the support arm 112, and the support arm 112 can support and limit the extension platform 122. The rotating shaft 121 extends into the shaft hole 111 and rotates with the shaft hole 111 to realize the function of the air guide door 120 rotating relative to the air outlet frame 110, thereby facilitating the opening or closing of the air outlet frame 110 using the air guide door 120.

[0030] The air outlet frame 110 also includes a connecting block 113, which is connected to the support arm 112 and disposed outside the shaft hole 111. When the air guide damper 120 rotates to close the air outlet frame 110, the rotating shaft 121 and the shaft hole 111 maintain a rotational engagement state, while the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122 are spaced apart to avoid friction between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122, which would affect the rotation and opening of the air guide damper 120 (e.g., increase resistance, generate abnormal noise, etc.). Furthermore, the gap between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122 is small. If the air guide damper 120 is subjected to external impact at this time, the air guide damper 120 will drive the extension platform 122 to move until the extension platform 122 and the connecting block 113 abut against each other, so as to share the impact force on the rotating shaft 121 and prevent the rotating shaft 121 from deforming or even breaking.

[0031] Specifically, during the packaging and transportation of the air conditioner unit (with the air deflector 120 always closed), if the air deflector 120 is subjected to external impact, part of the impact force will be transmitted through the rotating shaft 121 to the mating point between the rotating shaft 121 and the shaft hole 111, and another part of the impact force will be transmitted through the extension platform 122 to the abutting point between the extension platform 122 and the connecting block 113. That is, the abutting between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122 can share the impact force on the rotating shaft 121, so as to effectively protect the rotating shaft 121 of the air deflector 120, improve safety, prevent the rotating shaft 121 from deforming or even breaking under external impact, and improve the user experience.

[0032] Preferably, the axial direction of the shaft hole 111 is perpendicular to the support arm 112, the connecting block 113 is perpendicular to the support arm 112, and the rotating shaft 121 is perpendicular to the extension platform 122, so as to facilitate the assembly of the rotating shaft 121 and the shaft hole 111, and ensure the fitting accuracy of the rotating shaft 121 and the shaft hole 111 after assembly, so that the air guide door 120 can rotate stably relative to the air outlet frame 110, while improving the supporting effect of the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122, ensuring that the extension platform 122 can reliably transmit the impact force to the connecting block 113.

[0033] Preferably, the extension platform 122 is provided with a clearance groove 123, which is used to allow space for the connecting block 113 to avoid affecting the rotation of the air guide damper 120. Specifically, when the air conditioner is running normally, the air guide damper 120 can rotate relative to the air outlet frame 110 to adjust the air outlet direction. During this process, the rotating shaft 121 rotates relative to the shaft hole 111, and the extension platform 122 rotates relative to the support arm 112. The connecting block 113 located on the support arm 112 can extend into or retract from the clearance groove 123 located on the extension platform 122 to avoid interference between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122, thereby avoiding affecting the rotation of the air guide damper 120.

[0034] Furthermore, the connecting block 113 is arc-shaped, and the curvature of the connecting block 113 is the same as the curvature of the shaft hole 111. That is, the connecting block 113 surrounds part of the shaft hole 111 to facilitate the cooperation between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122. Specifically, the end of the extension platform 122 is arc-shaped, and the curvature of the end of the extension platform 122 is the same as the curvature of the connecting block 113. This ensures a tight fit between the connecting block 113 and the extension platform 122 when the air guide damper 120 is in the closed state, thereby ensuring a supporting effect, effectively distributing the impact force on the rotating shaft 121, and preventing damage to the rotating shaft 121.

[0035] Preferably, the connecting block 113 is provided with a reinforcing rib 114, which is connected to the support arm 112. The reinforcing rib 114 is used to improve the connection strength between the connecting block 113 and the support arm 112, prevent the connecting block 113 from being misaligned relative to the support arm 112 or even falling off the support arm 112, and improve safety.

[0036] In this embodiment, the reinforcing rib 114 is disposed on the side of the connecting block 113 near the shaft hole 111. The end face of the reinforcing rib 114 is flush with the inner wall of the shaft hole 111, meaning that the reinforcing rib 114 will not protrude into the shaft hole 111, thus avoiding any impact on the fit between the shaft hole 111 and the rotating shaft 121. Since the end face of the reinforcing rib 114 is flush with the inner wall of the shaft hole 111, the reinforcing rib 114 can simultaneously reinforce the inner wall of the shaft hole 111, preventing the shaft hole 111 from cracking. Specifically, the edges of the reinforcing rib 114 are chamfered to improve stress transmission. However, this is not the only limitation; in other embodiments, the reinforcing rib 114 can also be disposed on the side of the connecting block 113 away from the shaft hole 111, and the specific location of the reinforcing rib 114 is not limited.

[0037] Furthermore, there are multiple reinforcing ribs 114, spaced apart, extending perpendicular to the support arm 112. These multiple reinforcing ribs work together to further enhance the connection strength between the connecting block 113 and the support arm 112, preventing misalignment of the connecting block 113 relative to the support arm 112 or even detachment from it. In this embodiment, there are three reinforcing ribs 114, but this is not limited to this. In other embodiments, there may be two or four reinforcing ribs 114; the number of reinforcing ribs 114 is not specifically limited.

[0038] Preferably, there are multiple support arms 112 and extension platforms 122. Multiple support arms 112 are spaced apart along the height direction of the air outlet frame 110. Each support arm 112 cooperates with one extension platform 122. The multiple support arms 112 and multiple extension platforms 122 work together to improve the support and limiting effect of the air outlet frame 110 on the air guide damper 120, preventing the air guide damper 120 from falling downwards. Specifically, the shaft holes 111 on the multiple support arms 112 are coaxially arranged, and the rotating shafts 121 on the multiple extension platforms 122 are coaxially arranged to ensure the rotational accuracy of the air guide damper 120.

[0039] Preferably, there are multiple air guides 120 arranged side by side and each of them cooperates with the air outlet frame 110. All of the multiple air guides 120 can rotate relative to the air outlet frame 110. The multiple air guides 120 work together to open or close the air outlet frame 110 and improve the air guiding effect.

[0040] In this embodiment, there are four support arms 112 on the air outlet frame 110, two air guide doors 120, and two extension platforms 122 on each air guide door 120. The four support arms 112 on the air outlet frame 110 correspond one-to-one with the four extension platforms 122 on the two air guide doors 120 to achieve the cooperation between the air outlet frame 110 and the two air guide doors 120.

[0041] The air conditioner housing 100 of this embodiment includes an air outlet frame 110 comprising a support arm 112 with a shaft hole 111, and an air guide damper 120 comprising an extension platform 122 with a rotating shaft 121. The rotating shaft 121 is rotatably engaged with the shaft hole 111. The air outlet frame 110 also includes a connecting block 113, which is connected to the support arm 112 and disposed outside the shaft hole 111. The connecting block 113 is used to abut against the extension platform 122 under external force when the air guide damper 120 rotates to close the air outlet frame 110. Compared with the prior art, the air conditioner housing 100 provided by this invention, due to the use of the rotatably engaged rotating shaft 121 and shaft hole 111, and the connecting block 113 connected to the support arm 112, can effectively protect the air guide damper 120 during the packaging and transportation of the air conditioner, improving safety, preventing the rotating shaft 121 from deforming or even breaking under external impact, and enhancing the user experience.
