In this way, when the user installs the equipment by himself, only the air conditioner indoor unit and the air conditioner outdoor unit need to be fixed respectively, and the refrigerant pipe and the refrigerant do not need to be assembled, thereby reducing the installation difficulty and realizing personal installation of the user. However, the design is not limited to this, in other embodiments, the air conditioner 100 of the utility model can also be a common split type air conditioner 100 or an integrated air conditioner 100, for example, a window type air conditioner integrated machine, at this time, the air conditioner outdoor unit refers to the part of the window type air conditioner which extends to the outdoor side.

[0040] Optionally, the shell assembly 1 can be arranged in the air conditioner indoor unit, or arranged in the air conditioner outdoor unit, or arranged in both the air conditioner indoor unit and the air conditioner outdoor unit. In order to facilitate the description, the shell assembly 1 is arranged in the air conditioner outdoor unit as an example.

[0041] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 In an embodiment of the utility model, the shell assembly comprises:

[0042] The front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 are spliced, the front shell 11 at least comprises a front panel 111 and a first bottom plate 112 which is bently connected to the bottom side of the front panel 111, the rear shell 12 at least comprises a rear panel 121 and a second bottom plate 122 which is bently connected to the bottom side of the rear panel 121, and the side edges of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122 which are close to each other are spliced.

[0043] Specifically, the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 are spliced, thereby forming a closed space, the heat exchanger 2 and the fan assembly of the air conditioner outdoor unit are arranged in the closed space, that is, the shell assembly 1 in the scheme is formed by splicing two shell parts, thereby reducing the splicing quantity of the shell assembly 1, improving the splicing efficiency and splicing precision of the shell assembly 1, and further improving the production efficiency of the air conditioner 100 and the sealing effect of the air conditioner 100, reducing the possibility of air leakage or water leakage, thereby ensuring the refrigeration or heating efficiency of the air conditioner 100 and the service life, and improving the overall appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0044] The front shell 11 at least comprises a front panel 111 and a first bottom plate 112 connected to the bottom side of the front panel 111; the rear shell 12 at least comprises a rear panel 121 and a second bottom plate 122 connected to the bottom side of the rear panel 121, that is, the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 are spliced along the front-rear direction to form, that is, in the embodiment, at least the front panel 111 and the rear panel 121 are an integral plate, because the air inlet 102 is usually arranged on the rear panel 121 and the air outlet is usually arranged on the front panel 111, therefore, the front panel 111 and the rear panel 121 are both integral plate structures, which are helpful for the processing of the air inlet 102 and the air outlet and also helpful for reducing the assembly difficulty. The front shell 11 is usually integrally formed; the rear shell 12 is also usually integrally formed, so that some structures on the bottom plate are usually inconvenient to process and are not easy to form. Therefore, the bottom plate of the shell assembly 1 is spliced by the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122 to facilitate the processing and forming of the structures on the bottom plate. When the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 are spliced, the side edges of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122 close to each other are spliced.

[0045] In the actual installation process, the user can first install the heat exchanger 2 and the fan assembly and other structures in the air conditioner outdoor unit in the front shell 11 or the rear shell 12 respectively, and then integrally assemble the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12, so as to facilitate the overall assembly of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Alternatively, the first bottom plate 112 and the front panel 111 are integrally formed, for example, the first bottom plate 112 and the front panel 111 are integrally stamped and formed; the second bottom plate 122 and the rear panel 121 are integrally formed, for example, the second bottom plate 122 and the rear panel 121 are integrally stamped and formed.

[0046] In the embodiment of the utility model, the splicing part of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122 is provided with a water collecting groove 13. The water collecting groove 13 is used for collecting the moisture in the air conditioner outdoor unit, such as the condensate water generated by the heat exchanger 2 of the air conditioner indoor unit in the refrigeration state, which is discharged to the heat exchanger 2 of the air conditioner outdoor unit through the drain pipe 15 and then collected in the water collecting groove 13, or the moisture entering the air conditioner outdoor unit from the air inlet 102 or the air outlet by accident is also collected in the water collecting groove 13 and then discharged to the outdoor space by the water collecting groove 13, so as to reduce the possibility of accidental water leakage of the air conditioner outdoor unit. The water collecting groove 13 is arranged at the splicing part of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122, that is, part of the water collecting groove 13 is arranged on the first bottom plate 112 and the other part is arranged on the second bottom plate 122, and the complete water collecting groove 13 is formed through the splicing of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122.

[0047] For example, the first bottom plate 112 is provided with a first recess 113 near a side of the second bottom plate 122, and the second bottom plate 122 is provided with a second recess 123 near a side of the first bottom plate 112, and the first recess 113 and the second recess 123 jointly define a water receiving groove 13. That is, the edge of the first bottom plate 112 near the second bottom plate 122 is deformed by stamping, thereby forming the first recess 113, and the edge of the second bottom plate 122 near the first bottom plate 112 is deformed by stamping, thereby forming the second recess 123, and the first recess 113 and the second recess 123 are combined to form the water receiving groove 13. Compared with stamping the water receiving groove 13 on the first bottom plate 112 or the second bottom plate 122, the present solution is more convenient for processing the water receiving groove 13, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12.

[0048] In order to reduce water leakage of the water receiving groove 13, in an embodiment, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a sealing member 14 is arranged between the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122. The sealing member 14 can seal the joint gap between the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the water receiving groove 13 and reducing the possibility of accidental water leakage of the water receiving groove 13. Generally, the sealing member 14 is made of flexible materials such as rubber or silicone.

[0049] Further, the edge of the first bottom plate 112 near the second bottom plate 122 forms a first abutting edge 114, the edge of the second bottom plate 122 near the first bottom plate 112 forms a second abutting edge 124, at least the joint between the first abutting edge 114 and the first bottom plate 112 forms a limiting step 125, the second abutting edge 124 abuts against the limiting step 125, and the sealing member 14 is arranged between the second abutting edge 124 and the limiting step 125. Specifically, the edge of the first bottom plate 112 near the second bottom plate 122 forms the first abutting edge 114, the thickness of the first abutting edge 114 is less than the thickness of the edge of the first bottom plate 112 near the second bottom plate 122, and the inner side of the joint between the first abutting edge 114 and the first bottom plate 112 is aligned, thereby forming the limiting step 125 on the outer side of the joint between the first abutting edge 114 and the first bottom plate 112, and the second abutting edge 124 abuts against the limiting step 125, thereby ensuring the joint flatness of the outer surfaces of the first bottom plate 112 and the second bottom plate 122. The sealing member 14 is arranged between the second abutting edge 124 and the limiting step 125, thereby ensuring the sealing effect and facilitating the installation of the sealing member 14.

[0050] Further, the thickness of the second abutting edge 124 is less than the thickness of the edge of the second bottom plate 122 close to the first bottom plate 112, and the outside of the joint of the second abutting edge 124 and the second bottom plate 122 is aligned, so that a limiting step 125 is also formed on the inside of the joint of the second abutting edge 124 and the second bottom plate 122, and the first abutting edge 114 abuts against the limiting step 125, thereby ensuring the joint flatness of the inside of the bottom of the water collecting groove 13.

Specifically, the drain pipe 15 is directly communicated with the water collecting groove 13, so as to drain the water in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0052] Optionally, the drain pipe 15 is integrally formed with the first bottom plate 112, that is, the drain pipe 15 is mounted on the first bottom plate 112 and integrally formed with the first bottom plate 112, so as to facilitate the communication of the drain pipe 15 with the water collecting groove 13 and reduce the possibility of accidental seepage of water flow from the joint of the drain pipe 15 and the water collecting groove 13. In another embodiment, the drain pipe 15 is mounted on the second bottom plate 122, and preferably, the drain pipe 15 is integrally formed with the second bottom plate 122.

[0053] In order to facilitate the connection of the drain pipe 15 with the external water pipe, so as to guide the water flow in the air conditioner 100 to the preset position for drainage, in an embodiment, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the end of the drain pipe 15 away from the water collecting groove 13 extends to the joint of the first bottom plate 112 and the front panel 111. Specifically, one end of the drain pipe 15 extends to the joint of the first bottom plate 112 and the front panel 111, that is, extends to the front edge of the bottom plate, so as to facilitate the user to observe the drain pipe 15 in time, and the connection of the drain pipe 15 with the external water pipe can be achieved without turning over the air conditioner 100.

[0054] In another embodiment, the end of the drain pipe 15 away from the water collecting groove 13 extends to the joint of the second bottom plate 122 and the rear panel 121, that is, extends to the rear edge of the bottom plate.

Specifically, the first protrusion 115 is protruded on the outer side of the first bottom plate 112, the second protrusion 126 is protruded on the outer side of the second bottom plate 122, and when the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12 are spliced, the first protrusion 115 and the second protrusion 126 abut. One of the first protrusion 115 and the second protrusion 126 is provided with a mounting through hole, and the other is provided with a mounting hole, the fastener is arranged in the mounting through hole and is screwed into the mounting hole, so as to lock the first protrusion 115 and the second protrusion 126, and further lock the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12. Therefore, the fastener is generally configured as a fastening screw or a fastening bolt.

[0056] In the embodiment of the utility model, the first protrusion 115 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 115, and the plurality of first protrusions 115 are arranged at least on the first bottom plate 112 and can also be arranged at other positions of the front shell 11.
