[0019] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will provide further details.

[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up", "down", "inner", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0021] The air conditioner indoor unit frame structure disclosed in this utility model includes a frame 100, a reinforcing plate 200, and a padding 300. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, both the reinforcing plate 200 and the pad 300 are curved plates, and their curvatures are adapted to the curvature of the face frame 100. The reinforcing plate 200 is directly fixedly connected to the face frame 100, and a sufficient gap is left between the reinforcing plate 200 and the face frame 100 to form a space to accommodate the pad 300. The pad 300 is placed between the face frame 100 and the reinforcing plate 200. The pad 300 is pressed tightly by the fixed connection between the reinforcing plate 200 and the face frame 100, so that the inner and outer sides of the pad 300 are in contact with the outer side of the reinforcing plate 200 and the inner side of the face frame 100, respectively. The pad 300 provides support for the reinforcing plate 200 and the face frame 100 and, together with the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing plate 200, improves the strength of the entire face frame structure.

[0022] Specifically, in this utility model, the reinforcing plate 200 is fixed by means of an elastic buckle 400 and a first rigid groove 500 provided on the face frame 100. For example... Figures 1 to 4As shown, multiple elastic buckles 400 and multiple first rigid slots 500 are fixedly disposed on the face frame 100. The elastic buckles 400 are made of plastic to give them a certain elastic deformation capability, while the first rigid slots 500 can be made of metal or hard plastic to prevent deformation. The multiple elastic buckles 400 and multiple first rigid slots 500 are evenly distributed at intervals on the inner side of the face frame 100 at positions corresponding to the upper and lower edges of the reinforcing plate 200. The elastic buckles 400 form a snap-fit ​​engagement with the upper edge of the reinforcing plate 200, and the first rigid slots 500 form a snap-fit ​​engagement with the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200, thereby fixing the reinforcing plate 200. The reinforcing plate 200 is made of plastic, as in the prior art. Since the reinforcing plate 200 in this invention has an arc-shaped surface, pressing the arc surface of the reinforcing plate 200 can cause it to deform to a certain extent. When installing the reinforcing plate 200 and the pad 300, the pad 300 can first be fixed to the inner side of the face frame 100, and the pad 300 can be fixed to the face frame 100 by adhesive. Then, the upper edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is fastened to the elastic buckle 400, so that the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is close to the first rigid groove 5. 00, then press the reinforcing plate 200 to increase its curvature, align the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 with the first rigid slot 500, and then stop applying pressure to the reinforcing plate 200 to allow it to return to its original deformation. The lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 can then be inserted into the first rigid slot 500, thus achieving the installation of the reinforcing plate 200 through a simple assembly method. When disassembling the reinforcing plate 200, apply pressure to the reinforcing plate 200 in the same way as when installing it, and then the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 can be detached from the first rigid slot 500. Therefore, compared with the existing face frame structure that uses connectors to install the reinforcing plate 200, this utility model can effectively reduce the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the reinforcing plate 200 and effectively improve the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the reinforcing plate 200 on the face frame 100.

[0023] Furthermore, the elastic buckle 400 used in this invention can improve the fixing effect on the reinforcing plate 200. The structure of the elastic buckle 400 is as follows: Figure 5As shown, the two ends of the elastic buckle 400 are a fixed end 410 and a free end 420, respectively. The elastic buckle 400 is fixedly connected to the face frame 100 through the fixed end 410. The free end of the elastic buckle 420 is not connected to the face frame 100. A U-shaped groove 430 is provided at the free end of the elastic buckle 420. The groove opening of the U-shaped groove 430 faces the first rigid groove 500. The U-shaped groove 430 is used to form a snap-fit ​​with the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200. When the reinforcing plate 200 is installed, the elastic buckle 400 that applies pressure to the reinforcing plate 200 and engages with the upper edge of the reinforcing plate 200 will deform to a certain extent due to the force exerted by the reinforcing plate 200. After the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is inserted into the first rigid groove 500, the elastic force of the elastic buckle 400 during its own deformation recovery process will apply a clamping force to the reinforcing plate 200 to press the reinforcing plate 200 tightly and prevent the reinforcing plate 200 from coming off the first rigid groove 500, thereby improving the fixing effect of the reinforcing plate 200.

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the elastic buckle 400 used in this utility model also includes a transition section 440. The transition section 440 is the connecting section between the fixed end 410 and the free end 420 of the elastic buckle 400. The connection between the fixed end 410 and the transition section 440 is bent, and the connection between the free end 420 and the transition section 440 is also bent. The transition section 440 is also a free section that is not connected to the face frame 100. When the free end 420 is subjected to pressure, the transition section 440 will undergo elastic deformation to drive the free end 420 to move.

[0025] Furthermore, this utility model also includes a second rigid slot 600 that cooperates with an elastic buckle 400 to fix the upper edge of the reinforcing plate 200. For example... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second rigid slot 600 and the elastic buckle 400 are in a one-to-one correspondence, with a second rigid slot 600 spaced apart next to each elastic buckle 400. The second rigid slot 600, like the first rigid slot 500, is made of metal or hard plastic to prevent deformation. When installing the reinforcing plate 200, the second rigid slot 600 positions the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200 to assist in its installation. After installation, it works with the elastic buckle 400 to secure the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200. The second rigid slot 600 also engages with the U-shaped groove 430 of the elastic buckle 400 to clamp the reinforcing plate 200 from its inner and outer sides. To facilitate assembly of the reinforcing plate 200, such as... Figure 3As shown, after the reinforcing plate 200 is engaged with the first rigid slot 500 and the second rigid slot 600, there is a gap between the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200 and the bottom of the second rigid slot 600. The distance S of this gap is greater than the amount L of engagement between the lower part of the reinforcing plate 200 and the first rigid slot 500, so as to leave enough distance for the reinforcing plate 200 to move backward after being compressed when it is installed.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to improve the fixing effect between the reinforcing plate 200 and the U-shaped groove 430 of the elastic buckle 400, and between the reinforcing plate 200 and the pad 300, the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200 is set as a bent edge. By bending the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200 so that its upper part is bent in the opposite direction and parallel to the unbent part of the reinforcing plate 200, a U-shaped bent edge is formed on the upper part of the reinforcing plate 200. The U-shaped bent edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is adapted to the U-shaped groove 430 of the elastic buckle 400. When the U-shaped bent edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is inserted into the U-shaped groove 430 of the elastic buckle 400, the U-shaped groove 430 will squeeze the U-shaped bent edge of the reinforcing plate 200 to make it elastically deformed. Then, the rebound force of the U-shaped bent edge to recover its deformation is used to fix it in the U-shaped groove 430. This utility model also sets the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 as a bent edge. The lower edge of the reinforcing plate 200 is bent vertically to form a right-angle bent edge. The right-angle bent edge of the reinforcing plate 200 can abut against the edge of the pad 300 to form a limiting fit, thereby improving the fixing effect of the pad 300.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this utility model, two limiting edges 700 are also provided on the face frame 100. The two limiting edges 700 abut against the two sides of the reinforcing plate 200 respectively, and limit the two sides of the reinforcing plate 200 respectively, so as to prevent the reinforcing plate 200 from shifting in the length direction.

[0028] This utility model also discloses an air conditioner that includes the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit frame structure.
