[0040] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0041] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. In addition, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided in this invention; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0042] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a housing 1, a heat exchange and air supply assembly, and a magnetic control switch 3. The housing 1 includes a front frame 11 and a panel 12. The panel 12 is switchably disposed on the front frame 11 between an open state and a closed state. A snap-fit ​​hole 111 is formed on the front frame 11, and a snap fastener 13 is provided on the panel 12. In the closed state, the snap fastener 13 snaps into the snap-fit ​​hole 111. The snap-fit ​​cooperation between the snap fastener 13 and the snap-fit ​​hole 111 can improve the stability of the panel 12 in the closed state, and at the same time, it can realize the snap-fit ​​between the panel 12 and the front frame 11, thereby reducing the difficulty for the user to open the panel 12.

[0044] The heat exchange and air supply assembly is housed within the casing 1. A magnetic switch 3 is also housed within the casing 1 and electrically connected to at least a portion of the power module 2 within the heat exchange and air supply assembly to control the power supply module 2's on / off state. The magnetic switch 3 is positioned opposite to the snap-fit ​​hole 111, and the snap-fit ​​13 is equipped with a magnetic element 4 suitable for engaging with the magnetic switch 3. In other words, while the snap-fit ​​13 engages with the snap-fit ​​hole 111 to secure the panel 12, it also provides an installation position for the magnetic element 4, eliminating the need for an additional mounting structure. Furthermore, when the snap-fit ​​13 engages with the snap-fit ​​hole 111, at least a portion of the snap-fit ​​13 extends into the snap-fit ​​hole 111, effectively maintaining the relative position between the magnetic element 4 and the casing 1. This facilitates control of the switching distance between the magnetic element 4 and the magnetic switch 3, improving the accuracy of the magnetic element 4 in controlling the magnetic switch.

[0045] Therefore, by making full use of the space on the buckle 13 to install the magnetic component 4, there is no need to set up an additional installation structure on the panel 12 for the installation of the magnetic component 4, which can simplify the structure of the panel 12. Furthermore, by engaging the buckle 13 with the snap-fit ​​hole 111, the relative position between the magnetic component 4 and the housing 1 can be maintained well, which facilitates the control of the switching distance between the magnetic component 4 and the magnetic control switch 3, thereby improving the accuracy of the magnetic component 4 in controlling the magnetic switch.

[0046] Specifically, when the latch 13 is engaged with the latch hole 111, i.e., when the panel 12 is in the closed state, the magnetic component 4 triggers the magnetic control switch 3. The magnetic control switch 3 controls the power supply module 2, which is electrically connected to the magnetic control switch 3, to be powered on, so that the power supply module 2 can operate normally. When the panel 12 is in the open state, such as when the user lifts the panel 12, the magnetic component 4 moves away from the magnetic control switch 3. The magnetic control switch 3 is then located outside the magnetic field of the magnetic component 4. The magnetic control switch 3 controls the power supply module 2, which is electrically connected to the magnetic control switch 3, to be de-energized, thereby preventing the user from accidentally touching the power supply module 2 and getting an electric shock or being scratched by contact with the impeller.

[0047] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the air conditioner 100 fully utilizes the space on the buckle 13 to install the magnetic component 4, eliminating the need for additional mounting structures on the panel 12 for the installation of the magnetic component 4. This simplifies the structure of the panel 12. Furthermore, the engagement of the buckle 13 with the snap-fit ​​hole 111 effectively maintains the relative position between the magnetic component 4 and the housing 1, facilitating the control of the switching distance between the magnetic component 4 and the magnetic control switch 3, thereby improving the accuracy of the magnetic component 4 in controlling the magnetic switch.

[0048] In a specific example, there are multiple buckles 13 and multiple snap holes 111 arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. The number of multiple buckles 13 and multiple snap holes 111 are the same and correspond one-to-one. The magnetic component 4 is installed on one of the buckles 13.

[0049] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the magnetic component 4 is disposed at the end of the buckle 13 near the magnetic control switch 3. This effectively shortens the distance between the magnetic component 4 and the magnetic control switch 3 when the buckle 13 engages with the snap-fit ​​hole 111. It is understood that the greater the distance between the magnetic component 4 and the magnetic control switch 3 when the switch is triggered, the higher the required magnetic force of the magnetic component 4. Therefore, by shortening the distance between the magnetic component 4 and the magnetic control switch 3, the requirement for the magnetic force of the magnetic component 4 can be effectively reduced.

[0050] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the snap-fit ​​hole 111 penetrates the face frame 11, and the buckle 13 includes a snap-fit ​​part 131 and a connecting part 132. The snap-fit ​​part 131 is connected to the panel 12 through the connecting part 132. In the closed state, at least a portion of the connecting part 132 passes through the snap-fit ​​hole 111, and the snap-fit ​​part 131 is located inside the face frame 11. The magnetic element 4 is disposed on the snap-fit ​​part 131. That is, when the buckle 13 is engaged with the snap-fit ​​hole 111, the snap-fit ​​part 131 extends into the inside of the face frame 11 through the snap-fit ​​hole 111, thereby allowing the snap-fit ​​part 131 to be closer to the magnetic switch 3. Thus, by disposing of the magnetic element 4 on the snap-fit ​​part 131, when the buckle 13 is engaged with the snap-fit ​​hole 111, the distance between the magnetic element 4 and the magnetic switch 3 can be shortened, thereby reducing the magnetic force requirement of the magnetic element 4.

[0051] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 5 to 8 As shown, a mounting hole 133 is formed on the buckle 13, and the magnetic component 4 is installed in the mounting hole 133. Thus, by providing the mounting hole 133, a position indicator can be provided for the installation of the magnetic component 4, thereby simplifying the installation of the magnetic component 4. At the same time, the mounting hole 133 can limit the magnetic component 4 to ensure that the magnetic component 4 is securely installed.

[0052] In one specific example, mounting hole 133 is formed on snap-fit ​​portion 131.

[0053] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the magnetic component 4 is interference-fitted with the mounting hole 133. That is, the size of the magnetic component 4 is slightly larger than the size of the mounting hole 133. During the installation process, the magnetic component 4 can be inserted into the mounting hole 133 by pressing it. Thus, while ensuring the magnetic component 4 is firmly installed, the connection structure between the magnetic component 4 and the buckle 13, as well as the installation steps of the magnetic component 4, are simplified.

[0054] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the buckle 13 and the panel 12 are integrally formed. Therefore, the integrally formed structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the buckle 13 and the panel 12, but also facilitates molding and simplifies manufacturing. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for assembly parts and connection processes used to connect the buckle 13 and the panel 12, resulting in lower production costs and significantly improved assembly efficiency. This ensures reliable connection between the buckle 13 and the panel 12. Moreover, the integrally formed structure has higher overall strength and stability, and a longer lifespan.

[0055] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 9 to 12 As shown, the power module 2 includes a housing 21, on which a partition 22 is provided opposite to the snap-fit ​​hole 111. The housing 21 and the partition 22 together define an accommodating space 23, located on the side of the partition 22 away from the snap-fit ​​hole 111. The magnetic switch 3 is located within the accommodating space 23. In other words, the partition 22 separates the magnetic switch 3 from the snap-fit ​​hole 111, thus forming an effective physical barrier to prevent electric shock to the user from contacting the magnetic switch 3 through the snap-fit ​​hole 111, thereby improving the safety of the air conditioner 100. Furthermore, the accommodating space 23 provides good protection for the magnetic switch 3, enhancing its anti-interference capability and stably maintaining its position on the housing 21, ensuring accurate engagement between the magnetic switch 3 and the magnetic component 4.

[0056] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the receiving space 23 has an installation port for inserting the magnetic switch 3. That is, the magnetic switch 3 can be installed into the receiving space 23 through the installation port. This reduces the installation difficulty of the magnetic switch 3 and facilitates inspection, maintenance, and other operations during the use of the magnetic switch 3.

[0057] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the heat exchange and air supply assembly includes a first power module 2 and a second power module 2 arranged along a first direction. The magnetic switch 3 is electrically connected to the first power module 2, and the mounting port is located on the side of the partition 22 away from the second power module 2. That is, the magnetic switch 3 is installed into the receiving space 23 through the mounting port from the side of the partition 22 away from the second power module 2. This avoids the second power module 2 obstructing the mounting port and affecting the installation of the magnetic switch 3, thereby reducing the difficulty of installing the magnetic switch 3 into the receiving space 23 and improving the installation efficiency of the magnetic switch 3.

[0058] According to some embodiments of this utility model, a first spring-loaded latch 24 is provided at the mounting opening. The first spring-loaded latch 24 engages with the magnetic switch 3 to fix the magnetic switch 3 within the receiving space 23. That is, by engaging the magnetic switch 3 with the first spring-loaded latch 24, the magnetic switch 3 can be stably held within the receiving space 23 to prevent it from falling out, thereby ensuring that the magnetic switch 3 can accurately engage with the magnetic component 4, which helps improve the control accuracy of the magnetic switch 3. In addition, the snap-fit ​​connection structure is simple and the engagement and contact are easy, thereby reducing the difficulty of installing and disassembling the magnetic switch 3, facilitating subsequent inspection and maintenance.

[0059] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the first spring-loaded latch 24 is disposed at one end of the partition 22 near the mounting opening and includes an elastic connecting arm 241 and a snap-fit ​​protrusion 242. The elastic connecting arm 241 is located between the magnetic control switch 3 and the snap-fit ​​hole 111, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 242 is disposed on the side of the elastic connecting arm 241 facing the magnetic control switch 3 and engages with the magnetic control switch 3. The snap-fit ​​protrusion 242 is located on the outside of the magnetic control switch 3 and abuts against the magnetic control switch 3, thereby preventing the magnetic control switch 3 from dislodging from the receiving space 23 through the limiting protrusion. Furthermore, the elastic connecting arm 241 blocks the side of the magnetic control switch 3 facing the snap-fit ​​hole 111. In other words, the first spring-loaded latch 24 can limit the position of the magnetic control switch 3 and prevent the user from contacting the magnetic control switch 3 through the snap-fit ​​hole 111 and causing electric shock, thus improving the safety of using the air conditioner 100.

[0060] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the partition 22 is made of plastic. Since the partition 22 is positioned between the magnetic switch 3 and the snap-fit ​​hole 111, after the snap-fit ​​13 engages with the snap-fit ​​hole 111, the partition 22 is positioned between the magnetic switch 3 and the magnetic component 4. The fact that the partition 22 is made of plastic prevents it from interfering with or absorbing the magnetic field of the magnetic component 4, thus ensuring that the magnetic field of the magnetic component 4 can stably act on the magnetic switch 3 to accurately trigger the magnetic switch 3.

[0061] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 9 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the magnetic switch 3 is electrically connected to the power module 2 via a connecting wire harness 5. The power module 2 includes a housing 21, and a wiring space 25 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 21. At least a portion of the connecting wire harness 5 runs along the wiring space 25. Therefore, the wiring space 25 provides a good limiting effect for the connecting wire harness 5, thus stably fixing the connecting wire harness 5 to the housing 21. This prevents the connecting wire harness 5 from being suspended and interfering with other components, ensuring a reliable connection between the magnetic switch 3 and the power module 2.

[0062] According to some embodiments of this utility model, a second spring-loaded buckle 26 is provided on the outer wall surface of the outer shell 21, and the second spring-loaded buckle 26 and the outer wall surface of the outer shell 21 together define a wiring space 25. That is, the position of the connecting wire harness 5 on the outer shell 21 is restricted by the second spring-loaded buckle 26. As a result, the difficulty of fixing the connecting wire harness 5 on the outer shell 21 can be reduced. Specifically, during wiring, the connecting wire harness 5 is pressed down through the gap between the second spring-loaded buckle 26 and the outer shell 21, pushing the second spring-loaded buckle 26 to deform, so that the connecting wire harness 5 can enter the wiring space 25 defined between the second spring-loaded buckle 26 and the outer shell 21. The second spring-loaded buckle 26 returns to its original shape to limit the connection of the connecting wire harness 5.

[0063] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the power module 2 electrically connected to the magnetic switch 3 is a fresh air module. Therefore, when the panel 12 is opened, the magnetic component 4 moves away from the magnetic switch 3, and the magnetic switch 3 controls the fan of the fresh air module to cut off the power, which can prevent the user from coming into contact with the rotating fan wheel and causing injury, thus ensuring a high safety factor.

[0064] In a specific example, the first power module 2 is a fresh air module, and the second power module 2 is a heat exchange module. The fresh air module and the heat exchange module are arranged in a left-right direction. The outer shell 21 of the fresh air module is a volute, and a fresh air duct 211 is formed inside the volute. The fresh air duct 211 has a forward-facing fresh air outlet 212. A connecting opening 114 is formed on the front wall of the face frame 11, which is opposite to the fresh air outlet 212. A fresh air outlet 121 is formed on the panel 12, which is opposite to the connecting opening 114. An air outlet grille 122 is provided inside the fresh air outlet 121. The fresh air module has a connection with the room. The air inlet is connected to the external space. A fresh air impeller is installed inside the casing. The rotation of the fresh air impeller drives the outdoor air into the casing and discharges it into the indoor space through the fresh air outlet 212, the connecting port 114 and the fresh air outlet 121 in sequence. An indoor air inlet 112 is formed on the top of the face frame 11, and an indoor air outlet 113 is formed on the bottom front side of the face frame 11. The heat exchange module is used to drive indoor air into the casing 1 through the indoor air inlet 112 and discharge it into the indoor space through the indoor air outlet 113 after heat exchange treatment to regulate the temperature of the indoor space.
