Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and specifically provides an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] In existing air conditioners, the support structure is set on the air conditioner panel. When supporting the air conditioner panel, the support structure is supported on the air conditioner cover, so that the air conditioner panel can be supported at a fixed angle, which makes it convenient for users to clean or repair the inside of the air conditioner.

[0003] However, as Figure 1 As shown, in the prior art, the support structure is located on the panel. During panel rotation, the support structure is prone to detachment, resulting in a lack of fit between the panel and the cover. Furthermore, placing the support structure on the panel makes the support insufficiently stable, making the panel prone to falling off.

[0004] Therefore, an air conditioner that can solve the above problems is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, namely, to solve the problem of unstable panel support structure of air conditioners in the prior art.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an air conditioner, including a cover, a first support structure and a second support structure for the panel, the panel being rotatably connected to the cover; the first support structure is disposed on the cover and rotatably connected to the cover, the first support structure is used to support the panel and can be retracted inside the cover; the second support structure is disposed on the panel and stops with the first support structure.

[0007] In the preferred technical solution of the air conditioner described above, the second support structure includes a positioning plate and a positioning block. The positioning plate is located at one end of the panel, and the positioning block is located at the other end of the panel. There are two first support structures, which are respectively located at both ends of the cover. The two first support structures cooperate with the positioning plate and the positioning block respectively.

[0008] In the preferred technical solution of the above air conditioner, the thickness of the positioning block is greater than the thickness of the positioning plate.

[0009] In the preferred technical solution of the above air conditioner, the positioning plate is L-shaped and includes a first section and a second section that are connected to each other. The first section cooperates with the stop of the first support structure, and the second section is used to limit the first support structure.

[0010] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned air conditioner, the end of the positioning block away from the panel has a positioning groove, and the positioning groove cooperates with the stop of the first support structure.

[0011] In the preferred technical solution of the air conditioner described above, a storage groove is provided on the side of the cover near the panel, and the first support structure is rotatably disposed in the storage groove, so that the first support structure can be stored in the storage groove.

[0012] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned air conditioner, the air conditioner further includes a limiting protrusion, which is disposed at the edge of the storage groove and stops the first support structure; and / or, the length of the storage groove is greater than the length of the first support structure.

[0013] In the preferred technical solution of the air conditioner described above, the air conditioner also includes a rotating shaft, which is located at one end of the first support structure near the cover. The side wall of the storage groove has a guide groove, the width of which gradually decreases along the depth direction of the storage groove. The rotating shaft is rotatably located at the bottom of the guide groove.

[0014] In the preferred technical solution of the above air conditioner, the first support structure includes an inclined section and a flat section connected to each other. The end of the flat section away from the inclined section is rotatably connected to the cover. The thickness of the inclined section gradually decreases as it moves away from the flat section.

[0015] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned air conditioner, the first support structure includes a support plate and a reinforcing rib, with the reinforcing rib disposed on the side of the support plate near the storage groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model provides an air conditioner, including a cover, a first support structure for the panel, and a second support structure. The panel is rotatably connected to the cover. The first support structure is disposed on the cover and rotatably connected to the cover. The first support structure supports the panel and can be retracted inside the cover. The second support structure is disposed on the panel and engages with the first support structure at a stop. With this arrangement, when the panel is attached to the cover, the first support structure is retracted inside the cover. When the panel needs support, the first support structure rotates at a certain angle relative to the cover, and the end of the first support structure facing away from the cover supports the second support structure. This allows the first and second support structures to engage at a stop, supporting the panel at a certain angle, providing relatively stable support and preventing the panel from falling. This solution solves the problem of unstable panel support in the prior art. Attached Figure Description

[0035] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer," which indicate direction or positional relationships, are based on the direction or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These are used merely for ease of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or element 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. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "setting," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0038] like Figures 2 to 11 As shown, this utility model provides an air conditioner, including a cover 10, a panel 20, a first support structure 30, and a second support structure 40. The panel 20 is rotatably connected to the cover 10. The first support structure 30 is disposed on the cover 10 and rotatably connected to the cover 10. The first support structure 30 is used to support the panel 20 and can be retracted inside the cover 10. The second support structure 40 is disposed on the panel 20 and stops the first support structure 30.

[0039] With this configuration, when panel 20 is attached to cover 10, the first support structure 30 is housed within cover 10. When panel 20 requires support, the first support structure 30 rotates at a certain angle relative to cover 10. The end of the first support structure 30 facing away from cover 10 is supported by the second support structure 40, allowing the first support structure 30 and the second support structure 40 to engage in a stop-and-hold action, supporting panel 20 at a certain angle with relatively stable support and preventing panel 20 from falling. This solution solves the problem of unstable panel support in existing technologies.

[0040] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the second support structure 40 includes a positioning plate 42 and a positioning block 41. The positioning plate 42 is disposed at one end of the panel 20, and the positioning block 41 is disposed at the other end of the panel 20. There are two first support structures 30, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the cover 10. The two first support structures 30 are respectively engaged with the positioning plate 42 and the positioning block 41.

[0041] With this configuration, the positioning plate 42 and the positioning block 41 are respectively positioned at both ends of the panel 20. The positioning plate 42 and the positioning block 41 cooperate with the first support structure 30 to stop, so that the first support structure 30 supports both ends of the panel 20, making the force on the panel 20 more uniform. During the process of supporting the panel 20, the panel 20 will not deform due to uneven force, thus affecting the normal use of the panel 20.

[0042] In one specific embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner also includes a display box, which is installed at one end of the cover 10 near the positioning block 41. In order to avoid the installation position of the display box and its wiring, the first support structure 30 that cooperates with the positioning block 41 moves away from the panel 20.

[0043] In order to make the support heights at both ends of the panel 20 the same, the structure of the air conditioner can be adjusted in various ways. For example, the thickness of the positioning block 41 is greater than the thickness of the positioning plate 42, or the lengths of the first support structures 30 at both ends of the panel 20 are different, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the specific structure of the air conditioner do not deviate from the principle and scope of this utility model and should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0044] Preferably, it is understood that the thickness of the positioning block 41 is greater than the thickness of the positioning plate 42.

[0045] With this configuration, the positioning block 41 is higher than the positioning plate 42, ensuring that the two ends of the panel 20 are supported at the same height, thus preventing the panel 20 from twisting or deforming during support. Furthermore, by changing the height of the positioning block 41, rather than the length of the first support structure 30, the reverse installation of the first support structures 30 on both sides during air conditioner assembly is prevented.

[0046] like Figure 9 As shown, the positioning plate 42 is L-shaped and includes a first section 421 and a second section 422 that are connected to each other. The first section 421 cooperates with the first support structure 30 to stop, and the second section 422 is used to limit the first support structure 30.

[0047] With this configuration, the first segment 421 engages with the stop of the first support structure 30, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the panel 20 to support and fix it. The second segment 422 is positioned on the side of the first segment 421 to limit the first support structure 30 laterally, preventing it from sliding laterally during panel 20 support and affecting its support effect. The engagement of the first segment 421 with the stop of the first support structure 30 and the lateral limitation by the second segment 422 improve the user experience and make the support of the panel 20 more stable.

[0048] like Figure 10As shown, the positioning block 41 has a positioning groove 411 at one end away from the panel 20, and the positioning groove 411 cooperates with the stop of the first support structure 30.

[0049] With this configuration, the end of the first support structure 30 facing away from the cover 10 engages with the positioning groove 411, which limits the rotation angle of the first support structure 30, thus supporting and fixing the panel 20. The sidewall of the positioning groove 411 prevents the first support structure 30 from detaching from the positioning block 41. This configuration makes the support of the first support structure 30 more stable.

[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a storage groove 11 is provided on the side of the cover 10 near the panel 20, and the first support structure 30 is rotatably disposed in the storage groove 11, so that the first support structure 30 can be stored in the storage groove 11.

[0051] With this setup, when panel 20 is closed, panel 20 fits against cover 10, and the first support structure 30 is stored in storage slot 11. When panel 20 is lifted, the first support structure 30 is rotated at a certain angle so that the first support structure 30 can support panel 20.

[0052] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner also includes a limiting protrusion 12, which is disposed on the edge of the storage groove 11 and stops the first support structure 30.

[0053] With this setting, the limiting protrusion 12 is located at the edge of the storage groove 11. When the first support structure 30 is stored in the storage groove 11, the limiting protrusion 12 can stop the first support structure 30, so as to prevent the first support structure 30 from falling out during the normal operation of the air conditioner and affecting the normal use of the air conditioner.

[0054] like Figure 6 As shown, the length of the storage slot 11 is greater than the length of the first support structure 30.

[0055] With this setup, when the panel 20 is raised, the user can lift the first support structure 30 out of the storage slot 11 through the gap between the storage slot 11 and the first support structure 30, thereby allowing the first support structure 30 to support the panel 20.

[0056] like Figure 7 As shown, the air conditioner also includes a rotating shaft 50, which is disposed at one end of the first support structure 30 near the cover 10. The side wall of the storage groove 11 has a guide groove 13, the width of which gradually decreases along the depth direction of the storage groove 11. The rotating shaft 50 is rotatably disposed at the bottom of the guide groove 13.

[0057] With this design, the end of the guide groove 13 that is wider away from the bottom of the storage groove 11 makes it less likely for the rotating shaft 50 to deviate during installation, thus improving installation efficiency. The guide groove 13 serves to guide the rotating shaft 50. After the rotating shaft 50 slides to the bottom along the guide groove 13, the guide groove 13 limits the rotation shaft 50, allowing the rotating shaft 50 to be rotatably connected to the cover 10.

[0058] In practical applications, the rotating shaft 50 and the first support structure 30 can be configured in various ways. For example, the rotating shaft 50 can be fixedly connected to the first support structure 30 and rotatably connected to the cover 10; or, the rotating shaft 50 can be rotatably connected to the first support structure 30 and fixedly connected to the cover 10; or, the rotating shaft 50 can be rotatably connected to both the cover 10 and the first support structure 30, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the connection method between the rotating shaft 50 and the first support structure 30 do not deviate from the principle and scope of this utility model and should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0059] like Figure 7 As shown, the first support structure 30 includes an inclined section 301 and a flat section 302 connected to each other. The end of the flat section 302 away from the inclined section 301 is rotatably connected to the cover 10. The thickness of the inclined section 301 gradually decreases as it moves away from the flat section 302.

[0060] With this design, the inclined section 301 is inclined on the side closest to the panel 20, ensuring that when the first support structure 30 and the second support structure 40 are supporting each other, the inclined section 301 can avoid interference with the panel 20 and provide better support. The thickness of the flat section 302 remains unchanged, ensuring the supporting strength of the first support structure 30 and preventing deformation during the support of the panel 20.

[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, the first support structure 30 includes a support plate 31 and a reinforcing rib 32, with the reinforcing rib 32 disposed on the side of the support plate 31 near the storage groove 11.

[0062] With this configuration, the reinforcing rib 32 can enhance the support strength of the support plate 31, ensuring that the first support structure 30 will not deform during the support process.

[0063] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the reinforcing ribs 32 can be arranged in a variety of different ways. For example, the horizontal and vertical reinforcing ribs 32 can be arranged in a cross pattern, or multiple horizontal reinforcing ribs 32 can be arranged, or multiple vertical reinforcing ribs 32 can be arranged, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the arrangement of the reinforcing ribs 32 do not deviate from the principle and scope of this utility model and should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0064] The specific implementation of the first support structure 30 and the second support structure 40 is not unique, as long as they can achieve the function of supporting the panel 20 at a certain angle. The structures of the first support structure 30 and the second support structure 40 can be adjusted.

[0065] The technical solution of this utility model has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the protection scope of this utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
