[0071] The air conditioner 100 of the embodiments of the present application is described below with reference to the drawings.

[0072] According to the air conditioner 100 of the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figures 1-3 The air conditioner 100 includes a panel component 1 and an air outlet grille 2, the panel component 1 includes an air outlet frame opening 1a, the air outlet grille 2 is detachably connected with the panel component 1, and covers the air outlet frame opening 1a; wherein the panel component 1 includes a locking mechanism 111, the locking mechanism 111 is switchable between a locked state and an unlocked state, and the locking mechanism 111 locks the air outlet grille 2 in the locked state to prevent the air outlet grille 2 from being detached relative to the panel component 1.

[0073] The panel component 1 is provided with the air outlet frame opening 1a, and the air outlet grille 2 covers the air outlet frame opening 1a, and the air outlet of the air conditioner 100 flows out from the air outlet grille 2 through the air outlet frame opening 1a. The air outlet grille 2 of the embodiments of the present application is detachably connected with the panel component 1, and the air outlet grille 2 is designed as a detachable structure, so that the air outlet grille 2 can be detached from the panel component 1 for cleaning or replacement, reducing the dust accumulated on the air outlet grille 2, and being conducive to improving the air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0074] The panel component 1 includes the locking mechanism 111, the locking mechanism 111 is switchable between the locked state and the unlocked state, and the locking mechanism 111 locks the air outlet grille 2 in the locked state to prevent the air outlet grille 2 from being detached relative to the panel component 1, which can reduce the occurrence of the air outlet grille 2 loosening during work or transportation, and improve the installation stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0075] The locking mechanism 111 cancels the locking of the air outlet grille 2 in the unlocked state, and the air outlet grille 2 can be detached from the panel component 1 to clean or replace the air outlet grille 2, thereby reducing the dust accumulated on the air outlet grille 2 and improving the air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0076] According to the air conditioner 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the air outlet grille 2 is detachably connected with the panel component 1, the air outlet grille 2 can be detached from the panel component 1 to clean or replace the air outlet grille 2, thereby reducing the dust accumulated on the air outlet grille 2 and improving the air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100, and the locking mechanism 111 is arranged to lock the air outlet grille 2, thereby reducing the possibility of loosening of the air outlet grille 2 during operation or transportation and improving the installation stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the air outlet grille 2 has a mounting portion 20 at each end of the length, and the panel component 1 has a cooperating portion 10 corresponding to each mounting portion 20, wherein the cooperating portion 10 at at least one end comprises a locking mechanism 111, and the locking mechanism 111 is in limiting cooperation with the corresponding mounting portion 20 in the locked state.

[0078] The two ends of the air outlet grille 2 in the length direction are respectively cooperated with the panel component 1, thereby improving the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1.

[0079] At least one of the two cooperating portions 10 arranged in the length direction of the air outlet grille 2 comprises a locking mechanism 111, and the locking mechanism 111 is in limiting cooperation with the corresponding mounting portion 20 in the locked state, and the locking mechanism 111 cancels the limiting of the corresponding mounting portion 20 in the unlocked state.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the cooperating portion 10 comprising the locking mechanism 111 is a first cooperating portion 11, the mounting portion 20 corresponding to the first cooperating portion 11 is a first mounting portion 21, and the locking mechanism 111 prevents the first mounting portion 21 from moving towards the outside of the air outlet grille 2 to separate from the first cooperating portion 11 in the locked state.

[0081] It is worth noting that the outside of the air outlet grille 2 refers to the air outlet side of the air outlet grille 2, the inside of the air outlet grille 2 refers to the air inlet side of the air outlet grille 2, and the inside-outside direction refers to the interval direction of the outside and the inside of the air outlet grille 2.

[0082] Two mating parts 10 are provided respectively along the length direction of the air outlet grille 2, including the mating part 10 of the locking mechanism 111 which is the first mating part 11. Optionally, the first mating part 11 is provided at both ends along the length direction of the air outlet grille 2; or, the first mating part 11 is provided at one end along the length direction of the air outlet grille 2.

[0083] In the locked state, the locking mechanism 111 prevents the first mounting part 21 from moving toward the outside of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1, thereby restricting the removal of the air outlet grille 2 toward the outside of the panel component 1.

[0084] The locking mechanism 111 is located at the end of the air outlet grille 2 along its length to lock it. After the locking mechanism 111 switches from the locked state to the unlocked state, the end of the air outlet grille 2 where the locking mechanism 111 is located along its length can be pulled outward, which facilitates the quick disassembly of the air outlet grille 2 and makes the design of the quick disassembly scheme simpler.

[0085] Of course, it is not limited to this. For example, in other solutions, locking can also form a limit in other directions. For example, it can restrict the air vent grille 2 from moving upward. After unlocking, it can move upward first and then be pulled forward.

[0086] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, another mounting part 20 opposite to the first mounting part 21 along the length direction of the air outlet grille 2 is the second mounting part 22, and the mating part 10 corresponding to the second mounting part 22 is the second mating part 12. The second mounting part 22 is inserted and mated with the second mating part 12 by the movement of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel member 1 along the direction from the first mating part 11 to the second mating part 12. The second mating part 12 restricts the movement of the second mounting part 22 along the inward and outward directions of the air outlet grille 2.

[0087] A first mating part 11 is provided at only one end of the air outlet grille 2 along its length direction. The mounting part 20 corresponding to the first mating part 11 is the first mounting part 21. The other mounting part 20 of the air outlet grille 2 is the second mounting part 22. The mating part 10 provided corresponding to the second mounting part 22 of the air outlet grille 2 is the second mating part 12.

[0088] The assembly process of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1 is as follows: first, the second mounting part 22 and the second mating part 12 are inserted and mated, and then the first mounting part 21 and the first mating part 11 are assembled. The first mating part 11 restricts the first mounting part 21 from moving towards the outside of the air outlet grille 2.

[0089] The first mounting portion 21 is assembled with the first matching portion 11, and the second mounting portion 22 is inserted and matched with the second matching portion 12, so that the movement of the air outlet grille 2 in the length direction is limited, and the second matching portion 12 and the first matching portion 11 limit the movement of the air outlet grille 2 in the inner-outer direction, thereby improving the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0090] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in

[0091] When the air outlet grille 2 is pressed from the outer side to the inner side relative to the panel component 1, the second mounting portion 22 can be clamped and matched with the second matching portion 12, and the matching is simple and stable, and the operation is convenient.

[0092] In addition, when the air outlet grille 2 is assembled to the panel component 1, it moves from the outer side to the inner side relative to the panel component 1, and through the pressing of the air outlet grille 2 from the outer side to the inner side relative to the panel component 1, the matching can be completed, and the assembly operation difficulty is reduced.

[0093] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The locking mechanism 111 includes a sliding block 1111 or a knob 1112, and further includes a locking pin 1113. The locking mechanism 111 drives the locking pin 1113 to move between a limiting position and a avoiding position through the sliding of the sliding block 1111 or the rotation of the knob 1112. The locking pin 1113 abuts against the first mounting portion 21 in the limiting position to prevent the first mounting portion 21 from moving towards the outer side of the air outlet grille 2, and the locking pin 1113 avoids the first mounting portion 21 in the avoiding position.

[0094] The locking pin 1113 moves between the limiting position and the avoiding position, so that the state of the locking mechanism 111 can be switched. When the locking pin 1113 abuts against the first mounting portion 21 in the limiting position, the locking mechanism 111 is in a locking state to lock the air outlet grille 2, so as to prevent the air outlet grille 2 from moving outward relative to the panel component 1 and being disassembled. When the locking pin 1113 avoids the first mounting portion 21 in the avoiding position, the locking mechanism 111 is in an unlocking state to contact the air outlet grille 2, so as to drive the first mounting portion 21 to move towards the outer side of the air outlet grille 2 to disassemble the air outlet grille 2 from the panel component 1.

[0095] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the locking mechanism 111 comprises a sliding block 1111, sliding of the sliding block 1111 drives the locking pin 1113 to move between the limiting position and the avoiding position, the state of the locking mechanism 111 can be switched by sliding of the sliding block 1111, simple operation and convenient use.

[0096] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 The panel component 1 is provided with an elastic clamping buckle 161, the sliding block 1111 is provided with a first clamping portion 11111, and the elastic clamping buckle 161 and the first clamping portion 11111 are clamped and matched in the locking state.

[0110] The limiting protrusion 221 protrudes upward to be inserted into the limiting groove 121, and the upper end of the limiting protrusion 221 has a clamping protrusion 2211 protruding towards the inner side or the outer side of the air outlet grille 2, the clamping protrusion 2211 abuts against the top of the clamping step 1211, the cooperation of the clamping protrusion 2211 and the clamping step 1211 can limit the movement of the limiting protrusion 221 in the inward and outward directions of the air outlet grille 2, and limit the downward movement of the limiting protrusion 221, which can reduce the problem that the second cooperation part 12 is separated from the second mounting part 22 due to the backward movement (for example, sinking) of the air outlet grille 2, and improve the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0111] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the length direction of the air outlet grille 2 is the upward and downward direction, the first mounting part 21 is located at the lower end of the air outlet grille 2, and the first mounting part 21 is formed with a cooperation groove hole 213, as shown in Figure 8 , the first cooperation part 11 is formed with a protrusion 112 protruding outward, and the cooperation groove hole 213 is sleeved on the protrusion 112 towards the inner side of the air outlet grille 2, and the protrusion 112 at least provides upward supporting force to the air outlet grille 2.

[0112] The first cooperation part 11 is provided with a protrusion 112 protruding outward, the inner side of the first mounting part 21 has a cooperation groove hole 213 recessed outward, the cooperation groove hole 213 is sleeved on the protrusion 112 towards the inner side of the air outlet grille 2, the cooperation of the protrusion 112 and the cooperation groove hole 213 can limit the movement of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1, and the protrusion 112 at least provides upward supporting force to the air outlet grille 2, thereby improving the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0114] By arranging a plurality of protrusions 112 and a plurality of cooperation groove holes 213 corresponding to each other, and arranging the plurality of protrusions 112 at intervals along the width direction of the air outlet grille 2, the stress uniformity of the air outlet grille 2 can be improved, and the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2 is further improved.

[0115] The plurality of protrusions 112 are arranged along the width direction of the air outlet grille 2, which can limit the movement of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1 along the width direction of the air outlet grille 2, reduce the shaking of the air outlet grille 2, and improve the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2.

[0116] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 8 The length direction of the air outlet grille 2 is the up-down direction, the first mounting portion 21 is located at the lower end of the air outlet grille 2, and the first matching portion 11 includes an elastic cantilever 113, the free end of the elastic cantilever 113 is located above the fixed end and can elastically swing relative to the fixed end along the inside-outside direction of the air outlet grille 2, as shown in Figure 11 The first mounting portion 21 includes a clamping portion 212, as shown in Figure 2 And Figure 12 The free end of the elastic cantilever 113 is elastically stopped at the outside and the bottom of the clamping portion 212.

[0117] The free end of the elastic cantilever 113 is elastically stopped at the front side of the clamping portion 212 to limit the outward movement of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1, thereby limiting the position of the air outlet grille 2 relative to the panel component 1. The free end of the elastic cantilever 113 can elastically swing along the inside-outside direction to drive the clamping portion 212 to move outward and disengage from the stop of the elastic cantilever 113, that is, the disassembly of the first mounting portion 21 relative to the panel component 1 can be completed, which is simple to operate.

[0118] By arranging the locking mechanism 111 to hinder the outward movement of the first mounting portion 21 relative to the first matching portion 11 in the locked state, the situation that the first mounting portion 21 is disengaged from the panel component 1 due to accidental touch or impact can be reduced, and the installation stability of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1 can be improved.

[0122] The elastic suspension arm 113 is provided with a reinforcing rib at the fixed end and / or the free end, which can improve the structural stability of the elastic suspension arm 113, thereby improving the limiting effect of the elastic suspension arm 113 on the abutting portion. The width of the elastic suspension arm 113 gradually increases from the free end to the fixed end, which can also improve the structural stability of the elastic suspension arm 113 and be conducive to improving the limiting effect of the elastic suspension arm 113 on the abutting portion; and the width of the free end of the elastic suspension arm 113 is small, which is conducive to the elastic swing of the free end of the elastic suspension arm 113.

[0123] In some embodiments of the present application, in the up-down direction, the distance L1 between the upper end surface of the second mounting portion 22 of the air outlet grille 2 and the bottom surface of the abutting portion 212 is greater than the distance L2 from the second cooperation portion 12 of the panel component 1 to the upper surface of the free end of the elastic suspension arm 113. In this way, after the air outlet grille 2 is installed, it will press the elastic suspension arm 113 downward, the elastic suspension arm 113 will generate an upward elastic force, which can provide an upward supporting force to the air outlet grille 2, push the air outlet grille 2 upward, thereby limiting the air outlet grille 2 in the up-down direction, improving the assembly stability of the air outlet grille 2, and reducing the gap between the upper end of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1, improving the integrity of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1.

[0124] In some embodiments of the present application, the distance L1 between the upper end surface of the second mounting portion 22 of the air outlet grille 2 and the bottom surface of the abutting portion 212 is 3mm-6mm higher than the distance L2 from the second cooperation portion 12 of the panel component 1 to the upper surface of the free end of the elastic suspension arm 113, which can provide an upward supporting force to the air outlet grille 2, reduce the gap between the upper end of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1, and improve the integrity of the air outlet grille 2 and the panel component 1.

[0130] When the air outlet grille 2 is assembled to the panel component 1, the air outlet grille 2 moves relative to the panel component 1 along the direction from the first matching portion 11 to the second matching portion 12.

[0153] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 20 and Figure 21 The shielding panel 4 is located below the air outlet grille 2 and comprises a panel piece 44 and a decorative piece 45, the back side of the panel piece 44 is provided with side frames 441 and a lower frame 442, the side frames 441 extend along the up-down direction, the side frames 441 are two and are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction, the side frames 441 are on the sides away from each other in the left-right direction, and the lower frame 442 extends along the left-right direction and is connected between the lower ends of the two side frames 441; the decorative piece 45 is arranged on the back side of the panel piece 44 and comprises side decorative strips 451 and a lower decorative strip 452, the side decorative strips 451 extend along the up-down direction and are two to correspond to the outer sides of the two side frames 441 respectively, and the lower decorative strip 452 extends along the left-right direction, is connected between the lower ends of the two side decorative strips 451 and is arranged on the lower side of the lower frame 442.

[0154] In the related art, in order to make the appearance of the air conditioner beautiful and ensure the sealing of the air conditioner, a decorative piece is arranged at the joint of the panel and the panel support, and the mainstream method is to integrally form the decorative piece with the panel support, and then fix and install the panel on the panel support through screws, which not only easily causes damage to the appearance, but also increases the processing difficulty of the panel support.

[0155] In the technical scheme of the air conditioner, the decorative piece 45 is separately taken as a part, which reduces the processing difficulty of the panel support 14, the decorative piece 45 is arranged on the back side of the panel piece 44 and does not cause shielding and damage to the front side, then the decorative piece 45 is assembled and connected with the panel piece 44, at least part of the outer side of the decorative piece 45 constitutes the appearance side of the panel component 1, and thus the panel piece 44 and the decorative piece 45 constitute the overall appearance of the panel component 1, so that when the panel component 1 is assembled with the panel support 14, the relative movement friction, knocking and the like of the components constituting the appearance do not cause damage to the appearance. In addition, the separate manufacturing of the decorative piece 45 and the panel piece 44 enables the two to be separately replaced or repaired, and the entire panel component 1 does not need to be replaced due to damage of one of the components, which reduces the maintenance cost and improves the maintainability and service life of the air conditioner 100. Further, the assembly and connection of the decorative piece 45 and the panel piece 44 also enhances the structural strength of the shielding panel 4 to a certain extent and improves the durability thereof.

[0156] The arrangement of the side decorative strip 451 effectively shields the assembly and connection structure of the side frame 441, so that when the product is viewed from the left and right sides, only a neat decorative surface can be seen, and consistent visual experience can be obtained from the two sides, which greatly improves the overall appearance of the product. The assembly and connection of the side decorative strip 451 and the side frame 441 not only plays a decorative role, but also enhances the structural stability of the shielding panel 4 to a certain extent and improves the durability and service life of the shielding panel 4.

[0157] The lower frame 442 is connected between the lower ends of the two side frames 441, so that the frame part forms a U-shaped structure composed of the two side frames 441 and the lower frame 442, which improves the overall structural strength of the frame part, and the lower frame 442 also provides a basis for the assembly of the lower decorative strip 452; the lower decorative strip 452 is arranged on the lower side of the lower frame 442 and effectively shields the assembly and connection structure of the lower frame 442, so that when the product is viewed from the lower side, only a neat decorative surface can be seen, and consistent visual experience can be obtained from the lower side, which greatly improves the overall appearance of the product. The assembly and connection of the lower decorative strip 452 and the lower frame 442 not only plays a decorative role, but also enhances the structural stability of the shielding panel 4 to a certain extent and improves the durability and service life of the shielding panel 4.

[0158] In some embodiments of the air conditioner, the decorative piece 45 is arranged on the back side of the panel piece 44, and the decorative piece 45 is assembled and connected with the panel piece 44. Figure 20 andFigure 21 As shown, the side frame 441 has a first insertion structure 4411, and the side decoration strip 451 has a second insertion structure 4511, the first insertion structure 4411 defines an open-bottom slot 44111, and the second insertion structure 4511 is inserted into the slot 44111 by the upward movement of the decoration piece 45 relative to the panel piece 44, so as to limit the relative movement of the side frame 441 and the side decoration strip 451 along the left-right direction, the lower frame 442 has a first clamping structure 4421, and the lower decoration strip 452 has a second clamping structure 4521, the second clamping structure 4521 is clamped and matched with the first clamping structure 4421 by the upward movement of the decoration piece 45 relative to the panel piece 44, so as to limit the relative movement of the lower frame 442 and the lower decoration strip 452 along the up-down direction.

[0159] The side frame 441 and the side decoration strip 451 are matched by insertion, so that the side decoration strip 451 can be quickly and accurately installed on the side frame 441, and the firm connection between the side decoration strip 451 and the side frame 441 is ensured, and even when subjected to external force, the stable assembly state can be maintained, and the side decoration strip 451 is not easy to fall off or loosen. The first insertion structure 4411 defines an open-bottom slot 44111, so that the second insertion structure 4511 can be easily inserted into the slot 44111 from the up-down direction, and the quick assembly of the side frame 441 and the side decoration strip 451 is realized.

[0160] The lower frame 442 and the lower decoration strip 452 are matched by clamping, and the clamping structure is arranged, so that the lower decoration strip 452 can be quickly and simply assembled with the lower frame 442, without the need for complex fixing steps or tools, and when installed, the user or the assembly worker only needs to align the lower decoration strip 452 with the lower frame 442, and then apply an upward force to clamp it in place, thereby greatly saving the assembly time. Once the clamping structure is assembled, a stable connection effect can be provided, so that the lower decoration strip 452 and the lower frame 442 are not easily loosened or fallen off due to external force, and the stable connection also helps to improve the structural strength and service life of the entire shielding panel 4.

[0161] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, the air conditioner 100 comprises a rear cabinet part 100b and a front panel part 100a, the front panel part 100a is arranged on the front side of the rear cabinet part 100b, and comprises a panel part 1 and an air outlet grille 2, the panel part 1 comprises a panel support 14 and an appearance panel 15, the panel support 14 defines an air outlet frame 1a, the appearance panel 15 is arranged on the outer side of the panel support 14 and is assembled and connected with the panel support 14, and the panel support 14 is assembled and connected with the rear cabinet part 100b.

[0162] In the related art, the panel component 1 of the air conditioner 100 generally comprises a panel support 14 and an appearance panel 15, wherein the appearance panel 15 generally serves as a main structure (such as a top cover, a chassis, a display component 6, and a rear box body component 100b) connected with other components, and the panel support 14 generally serves as a function of an air duct and is fixed on the appearance panel 15 and does not serve as a main structure bearing stress and connecting other components. Thus, the following problems may occur:

[0163] In terms of production, when the appearance panel serves as a main structure of the panel component connected with other components, such as the rear box body component, a plurality of connection and fixing structures need to be arranged on both sides of the length direction of the appearance panel, and the ejection mode is a slanted top or a sliding block. Under the existing mold process condition, after the appearance panel is etched, stress marks are easily generated on both sides of the appearance panel, which causes appearance defects on both sides of the appearance panel and seriously affects the appearance effect of the product. In addition, the panel support can only be attached to the appearance panel and has a part of the function of the air duct, but does not bear the function of stress and connection with other components, which causes the appearance panel to bear more stress and the function of connection with other components, so that the modeling of the appearance panel is limited by many connection structures and strength reinforcing structures, and it is difficult to make a very complex modeling structure.

[0164] In terms of product transportation, if the whole machine product is collided or dropped during transportation and handling, the appearance panel as a main connection structure will bear a large impact force, which causes the connection with other components to be easily loose, and the product is easily disassembled during transportation. If the connection strength is not enough, the connection structure needs to be strengthened, but the strengthening of the connection structure will cause many connection structure marks on the appearance surface, and the area of the appearance surface is obviously reduced.

[0165] In the technical scheme of the utility model, the panel support 14 is assembled and connected with the rear box body component 100b, and the appearance panel 15 is covered outside the panel support 14 and assembled and connected with the panel support 14. Thus, the panel support 14 serves as a main structure of the panel component 1 connected with other components, the appearance panel 15 serves as an appearance decoration piece 45 covered outside the panel support 14 and fixed on the panel support 14, most of the connection structures are arranged on the panel support 14, the connection structures on the appearance panel 15 are greatly reduced, the risk of appearance defects such as stress marks on the appearance panel 15 is significantly reduced, and the strength requirement of the appearance panel 15 itself is also greatly reduced. On the other hand, the connection structures on the panel support 14 are shielded by the appearance panel 15, so the connection structure strength can be increased without considering the reduction of the appearance area caused by too many connection structures. In summary, the panel support 14 serves as a main structure of the panel component 1 connected with other components, which solves the problems of appearance defects such as stress marks on the panel appearance and insufficient connection structure strength.

[0166] In addition, the panel support 14 can no longer be limited to the structural part of the air duct, but can also be part of the appearance modeling, and the modeling structure is more complex than the appearance panel 15, thereby improving the plasticity of the product modeling, making the product modeling more novel and unique, and improving the competitiveness of the product in the market.

[0167] It is worth noting that the panel support 14 is assembled and connected with the rear box body part 100b, and the appearance panel 15 is assembled and connected with the panel support 14. The assembly connection means that the two are two separate parts, which are connected together by assembly, such as screw connection, buckle connection, welding, etc.

[0168] It is also worth noting that the appearance panel 15 covers the panel support 14, which means that the appearance panel 15 covers the outside of the panel support 14. However, it does not mean that the appearance panel 15 completely encloses the panel support 14, that is, the appearance panel 15 can partially cover the outside of the panel support 14, or can completely cover the outside of the panel support 14. The appearance panel 15 partially covers the outside of the panel support 14, which can shield various connection structures on the panel support 14, so that they are not exposed to the user's visual range, thereby improving the user's experience, and can also not hinder the connection between the panel support 14 and other components, thereby improving the connection strength. It is worth noting that the appearance panel 15 covers the panel support 14, which does not mean that the appearance panel 15 is matched with the panel support 14, but the appearance panel 15 only covers or wraps the panel support 14, and the appearance panel 15 can have its own shape. In addition, it also does not mean that the appearance panel 15 is also a one-piece part, and the appearance panel 15 can be formed by combining multiple components (such as the side panel 151, the top plate 152, and the bottom plate 153 described below) to cover the panel support 14.

[0169] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 24 The panel support 14 includes two side support parts 141, a top support part 142, and a bottom support part 143. The length direction of the side support part 141 extends along the up-down direction, the width direction of the side support part 141 extends along the front-rear direction, and the rear end of the side support part 141 is assembled and connected with the rear box body part 100b. The top support part 142 is connected between the upper ends of the two side support parts 141 and opposite the upper end of the rear box body part 100b in the front-rear direction. The bottom support part 143 is connected between the lower ends of the two side support parts 141 and opposite the lower end of the rear box body part 100b in the front-rear direction. The appearance panel 15 includes two side panels 151, a top plate 152, and a bottom plate 153. The two side panels 151 cover the outside of the two side support parts 141, respectively. The top plate 152 is arranged above the top support part 142, and the bottom plate 153 is arranged below the bottom support part 143.

[0170] By setting the side frame part 141, the air outlet frame opening 1a is stably fixed and supported, and the overall structural strength and safety of the air conditioner 100 are improved. In addition, the setting of the side frame part 141 provides a space for the setting of the connecting structure of the panel support 14 and the rear box body part 100b, thereby improving the connecting strength of the panel support 14 and the rear box body part 100b. The rear end of the side frame part 141 is assembled and connected with the rear box body part 100b, which is convenient and fast, and does not occupy the space of other panel supports 14; the two side panels 151 are respectively covered on the outer sides of the two side frame parts 141, can cover the connecting structure on the side frame part 141, and constitute the side appearance surface of the air conditioner 100, so that the appearance of the air conditioner 100 is more simple and concise.

[0171] By setting the top frame part 142, the upper part of the panel support 14 forms a more stable frame structure, which helps to improve the integrity and stability of the entire air conditioner 100. In addition, the top frame part 142 can also be provided with a connecting structure with the top cover part, thereby strengthening the overall connection of the air conditioner 100. The appearance panel 15 further comprises a top plate 152 arranged above the top frame part 142. The top plate 152 not only plays a role in covering and protecting the internal components, but also effectively prevents the invasion of external factors such as dust and moisture, thereby protecting the safety of the internal components.

[0172] By setting the bottom frame part 143, the lower part of the panel support 14 forms a more stable frame structure, which helps to improve the integrity and stability of the entire air conditioner 100. In addition, the bottom frame part 143 can also be provided with a connecting structure with the bottom disc part, thereby strengthening the overall connection of the air conditioner 100. The appearance panel 15 further comprises a bottom plate 153 arranged below the bottom frame part 143. The setting of the bottom plate 153 further enhances the protection capability of the bottom of the equipment, effectively preventing the erosion of external factors such as dust and moisture to the internal components of the equipment. At the same time, the bottom plate 153 can also play a role in sound insulation and shock absorption, thereby improving the user experience.

[0173] In the above technical solution, the panel support 14 comprises two side frame parts 141, a top frame part 142 and a bottom frame part 143 connected between the two side frame parts 141, and forms a stable cuboid structure, which stably protects the components arranged therein and provides a good connection basis for other components connected therewith, thereby helping to improve the overall connection strength of the air conditioner 100. In addition, when the appearance panel 15 simultaneously comprises the side panel 151, the top plate 152 and the bottom plate 153, the appearance panel 15 can be arranged outside the cuboid structure of the panel support 14, thereby achieving all-around shielding of the panel support 14.

[0174] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 23As shown, the front panel component 100a further comprises a display panel 5, which is located above the air outlet grille 2, the display panel 5 is installed on the panel support 14, the panel support 14 is formed with a avoiding opening 144 at the position corresponding to the display panel 5, and the air conditioner 100 further comprises a display component 6, which is installed on the panel support 14 and opposite to the avoiding opening 144.

[0175] The height of the display panel 5 is just the same as the line of sight of the user, so that the display panel 5 can clearly display the content of the display component 6 (such as temperature, humidity, working mode, etc.), and it is also beneficial for the user to observe the information on the display panel 5 and more intuitively understand the running state of the equipment, thereby improving the intelligence of the equipment and the user experience.

[0176] The avoiding opening 144 provides installation space for the display component 6, and meanwhile avoids interference with the display panel 5, so that the display panel 5 can be kept on the same continuous appearance surface with the air outlet grille 2 without protruding from other front panel components 100a.
