Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an air conditioning chassis and an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] In air conditioner assembly, the traditional method is to align the evaporator side plate with the chassis baffle, and then fix the other side to the connecting baffle. Since the positioning baffle is generally a ribbed structure with a uniform height, even when the evaporator is placed on the baffle, the other side can still be fixed, resulting in assembly deviations. This requires additional checks and corrections during the assembly process, increasing operational complexity and the probability of errors. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to propose an air conditioner chassis and air conditioner, which aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of assembling the air conditioner chassis and heat exchanger.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an air conditioning chassis, comprising:
[0005] The plate has a bottom wall, the bottom wall having an installation area for supporting the heat exchanger, the installation area having a first side and a second side opposite to each other;
[0006] A first positioning rib is provided on the first side of the bottom wall, and a first positioning part is provided on the side of the first positioning rib away from the bottom wall. The first positioning rib and the first positioning part are used to abut against the long side of the heat exchanger near the first side.
[0007] A connecting rib is provided on the second side of the bottom wall, and the heat exchanger is connected to the disc body through the connecting rib.
[0008] In one embodiment, the connecting rib is provided with a connecting hole, and a fastener passes through the connecting hole to connect with the heat exchanger.
[0009] In one embodiment, the bottom wall is further provided with supporting ribs, which are located within the installation area and are used to support the bottom of the heat exchanger.
[0010] In one embodiment, the height difference between the end of the first positioning part away from the bottom wall and the supporting rib is not less than the radius of the connecting hole.
[0011] In one embodiment, multiple supporting ribs are arranged parallel and spaced apart; and / or,
[0012] The supporting ribs are provided with water passage notches.
[0013] In one embodiment, the air conditioning chassis further includes a second positioning rib, which is disposed on the bottom wall and is used to abut against the short side of the heat exchanger.
[0014] In one embodiment, a second positioning part is provided on the side of the second positioning rib away from the bottom wall, and the second positioning part is used to abut against the short side of the heat exchanger.
[0015] In one embodiment, the second positioning rib is connected to the first positioning rib.
[0016] In one embodiment, the first positioning part is disposed on one end of the first positioning rib near the second positioning rib, and the first positioning part is connected to the second positioning part.
[0017] In one embodiment, the air conditioner chassis further includes a third positioning rib, which is disposed on the second side of the bottom wall and connected to the connecting rib. The third positioning rib is used to abut against the long side of the heat exchanger near the second side.
[0018] This utility model also proposes an air conditioner, including the air conditioner chassis described above.
[0019] In the technical solution of this utility model, by setting a first positioning part on the first positioning rib, when the heat exchanger is mistakenly placed on the first positioning rib, the first positioning part will abut against the bottom of the heat exchanger. At this time, since the first positioning rib is not a traditional rib structure with a uniform height, the heat exchanger will be difficult to place stably and therefore cannot be locked with the chassis in this state, thus achieving the effect of preventing mistaken placement. In addition, the first positioning part is equivalent to raising the first positioning rib, which allows the long side of the heat exchanger to be limited to a larger area, which is also conducive to further improving the positioning accuracy and stability of the heat exchanger after installation.

[0031] To improve the accuracy and efficiency of assembling the air conditioner chassis and heat exchanger 10, this technical solution proposes an air conditioner chassis, comprising:
[0032] The plate body 100 has a bottom wall 110, the bottom wall 110 is provided with a mounting area 120 for supporting the heat exchanger 10, the mounting area 120 has a first side and a second side opposite to each other;
[0033] A first positioning rib 200 is provided on the first side of the bottom wall 110. A first positioning part 210 is provided on the side of the first positioning rib 200 away from the bottom wall 110. The first positioning rib 200 and the first positioning part 210 are used to abut against the long side of the heat exchanger 10 near the first side.
[0034] A connecting rib 300 is provided on the second side of the bottom wall 110, and the heat exchanger 10 is connected to the disc body 100 through the connecting rib 300.
[0035] In the technical solution of this utility model, by setting a first positioning part 210 on the first positioning rib 200, when the heat exchanger 10 is misplaced on the first positioning rib 200, the first positioning part 210 will abut against the bottom of the heat exchanger 10. At this time, since the first positioning rib 200 is not a traditional rib structure with a uniform height, the heat exchanger 10 will be difficult to place stably, and therefore cannot be locked with the chassis in this state, thus achieving the effect of preventing mistaken identity. In addition, the first positioning part 210 is equivalent to raising the first positioning rib 200, so that the long side of the heat exchanger 10 can be limited to a larger area, which is also conducive to further improving the positioning accuracy and stability of the heat exchanger 10 after installation.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 4In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner chassis includes a chassis 100, which is disposed at the bottom of the air conditioner. The chassis 100 has a bottom wall 110 disposed at the top, and a mounting area 120 is provided on the bottom wall 110 for placing a heat exchanger 10. The heat exchanger 10 can be an evaporator or a condenser, etc. The mounting area 120 has a first side and a second side located opposite each other. A first positioning rib 200 is also provided on the bottom wall 110. The first positioning rib 200 can be integrally formed with the chassis 100. The first positioning rib 200 is disposed on the outer side of the mounting area 120. Specifically, the first positioning rib 200 can be disposed on the first side of the mounting area 120. During assembly, the first positioning rib 200 can abut against the long side of the heat exchanger 10 to align the heat exchanger 10. For positioning, in this design, the first positioning rib 200 is a rib structure of equal height extending along the long side of the heat exchanger 10. A first positioning part 210 is provided on the top of the first positioning rib 200 away from the bottom wall 110. The first positioning part 210 can be a protrusion integrally formed with the first positioning rib 200. During assembly, the first positioning part 210 can also abut against the long side of the heat exchanger 10 for positioning. By setting the first positioning part 210, the area of the heat exchanger 10 that is abutted can be increased, the positioning effect can be improved, and the assembly accuracy can be guaranteed. In addition, if the heat exchanger 10 is incorrectly placed on the first positioning rib 200 during assembly, the bottom will not be able to be placed stably due to the presence of the first positioning part 210, and thus cannot be properly locked with the chassis, achieving the effect of preventing mistaken identity. In addition, in this solution, the air conditioner chassis also includes a connecting rib 300, which is located on the bottom wall 110 and on the second side opposite to the first positioning rib 200. The connecting rib 300 is used to connect with the heat exchanger 10. The connecting rib 300 can be integrally formed on the bottom wall 110 of the plate body 100. When the heat exchanger 10 is installed on the plate body 100, the connecting rib 300 and the first positioning rib 200 abut against the two opposite long sides of the heat exchanger 10, respectively. In this way, the connecting rib 300 and the first positioning rib 200 cooperate to clamp and fix the heat exchanger 10, further ensuring the stability of the position of the heat exchanger 10 on the plate body 100. In addition, the connecting rib 300 can also be connected to the heat exchanger 10 by means of bonding or welding, which can ensure sufficient connection strength between the heat exchanger 10 and the plate body 100.
[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the connecting rib 300 is provided with a connecting hole 310, and a fastener passes through the connecting hole 310 to connect with the heat exchanger 10. The fastener can be a bolt, and the fastener is screwed to the heat exchanger 10 for easy assembly and disassembly of the heat exchanger 10 and the disc 100.
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4In one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom wall 110 is further provided with a support rib 400. The support rib 400 is disposed within the mounting area 120 and is used to support the bottom of the heat exchanger 10, thereby spacing the heat exchanger 10 from the bottom wall 110. The support rib 400 can be integrally formed with the plate body 100. The support rib 400 is disposed on the bottom wall 110, and the heat exchanger 10 can be placed on the support rib 400. At this time, the heat exchanger 10 is spaced apart from the bottom wall 110. This ensures that the condensate from the heat exchanger 10 can drip smoothly onto the plate body 100 while preventing the condensate on the plate body 100 from contacting the heat exchanger 10, thus preventing corrosion of the heat exchanger 10 and ensuring heat exchange efficiency. In addition, to improve the stability of the support for the heat exchanger 10, multiple support ribs 400 are arranged parallel and at intervals. These multiple support ribs 400 can be arranged parallel and at intervals along the short side of the heat exchanger 10, thus increasing the number of support points for the heat exchanger 10 and improving its stability. Furthermore, if... Figure 4 A water passage notch 410 is provided on the support rib 400, and the condensate on the chassis can flow between the support ribs 400 through the water passage notch 410, thus preventing the condensate from clogging.
[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, the height difference between the end of the first positioning part 210 away from the bottom wall 110 and the support rib 400 is not less than the radius of the connecting hole 310. Thus, if the heat exchanger 10 is incorrectly placed on the first positioning part 210, the height of the heat exchanger 10 is the height difference between the top of the first positioning part 210 and the top of the support rib 400. Since this height difference is not less than the radius of the connecting hole 310, the connection point on the heat exchanger 10 that originally corresponded to the position of the connecting hole 310 will be raised upwards to be offset from the connecting hole 310. Therefore, the heat exchanger 10 cannot be locked by fasteners, thereby achieving the effect of preventing incorrect assembly.
[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner chassis further includes a second positioning rib 500, which is disposed on the bottom wall 110 and abuts against the short side of the heat exchanger 10. The second positioning rib 500 can be integrally formed with the chassis body 100 and is also disposed at the edge of the mounting area 120. During assembly, the second positioning rib 500 can abut against the short side of the heat exchanger 10 to position the heat exchanger 10. Thus, the second positioning rib 500, in cooperation with the first positioning rib 200, can simultaneously limit the heat exchanger 10 in both the long and short side directions, ensuring the accurate positioning of the heat exchanger 10 when it is assembled on the chassis body 100.
[0041] like Figure 4In one embodiment of this utility model, a second positioning part 510 is provided on the side of the second positioning rib 500 away from the bottom wall 110. The second positioning part 510 is used to abut against the short side of the heat exchanger 10. The second positioning part 510 may be a protrusion integrally formed with the second positioning rib 500. During assembly, the second positioning part 510 may also abut against the short side of the heat exchanger 10 for positioning. By providing the second positioning part 510, the area of the heat exchanger 10 that is abutted can be increased, the positioning effect can be improved, and the assembly accuracy can be guaranteed. In addition, the provision of the second positioning part 510 also prevents the heat exchanger 10 from being mistakenly placed on the second positioning rib 500, thus achieving a foolproof effect.
[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the second positioning rib 500 is connected to the first positioning rib 200. Thus, the second positioning rib 500 and the first positioning rib 200 support each other, improving the structural strength of the air conditioner chassis and its support capacity for the heat exchanger 10.
[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the first positioning part 210 is disposed on the first positioning rib 200 near one end of the second positioning rib 500, and the first positioning part 210 is connected to the second positioning part 510. In this way, the first positioning part 210 and the second positioning part 510 can support each other to improve the structural strength and the support capacity for the heat exchanger 10. In addition, since heat exchangers such as evaporators generally have side plates at both ends of the long side for easy installation, the first positioning part 210 and the second positioning part 510 can be correspondingly disposed at the corners near the side plates, which can improve the positioning effect of the side plates.
[0044] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner chassis further includes a third positioning rib 600. The third positioning rib 600 is disposed on the second side of the bottom wall 110 and connected to the connecting rib 300. The third positioning rib 600 is used to abut against the long side of the heat exchanger 10 near the second side. The third positioning rib 600 can be connected to the connecting rib 300 for mutual support, improving the structural strength of the air conditioner chassis. The third positioning rib 600 can also cooperate with the first positioning rib 200 to clamp the two opposite long sides of the heat exchanger 10, thus further ensuring positioning accuracy and improving the stability of the heat exchanger 10 mounted on the air conditioner chassis.
[0045] This utility model also proposes an air conditioner, including the above-mentioned air conditioner chassis. The specific structure of the air conditioner chassis is as described in the above embodiments. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.
[0046] In one embodiment, the air conditioner includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit is mounted on the aforementioned air conditioning chassis. The indoor and outdoor units are connected by flexible refrigerant pipes pre-filled with refrigerant. Refrigerant can be pre-filled into the refrigerant circuit at the factory. During installation, only the indoor and outdoor units need to be fixed separately, eliminating the need to assemble the refrigerant pipes and add refrigerant, thus reducing installation difficulty and enabling individual user installation. Furthermore, the flexible refrigerant pipes allow for some relative displacement between the indoor and outdoor units, ensuring the pipes' airtightness and preventing refrigerant leakage. In another embodiment, the compressor can be mounted on the indoor unit to reduce the weight of the outdoor unit, facilitating its installation. Additionally, the compressor on the indoor unit can be equipped with a noise reduction structure to lower the operating noise of the indoor unit, thereby improving the user experience. In another embodiment, the indoor unit is provided with four casters at the bottom. The four casters are respectively located at the four corners of the bottom of the air conditioner chassis. The indoor unit is supported on the ground by the casters and can move on the ground. In this way, the indoor unit can be moved to any position in the room according to the usage needs, which improves the flexibility of the air conditioner.
[0047] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model.
