[0025] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] The following is combined with Figures 1-5 This invention describes a cabinet-type air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0027] The cabinet air conditioner of this utility model embodiment includes a housing 1, an evaporator 2, and a clamping member 3. The evaporator 2 includes a body 21 and a pipe 22. The body 21 is installed inside the housing 1, and the pipe 22 is connected to the body 21. The clamping member 3 is connected to the housing 1, and the clamping member 3 and the housing 1 surround a molded limiting cavity, or the clamping member 3 surrounds the molded limiting cavity, and the pipe 22 passes through the limiting cavity.

[0028] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the cabinet air conditioner is connected to the housing 1 by setting a clamping member 3, and the clamping member 3 and the housing 1 surround and form a limiting cavity, or the clamping member 3 itself surrounds and forms a limiting cavity, and the limiting cavity can accommodate part of the pipe 22 in the evaporator 2, so as to limit the pipe 22. This makes it less likely for the pipe 22 of the evaporator 2 to deform or shift during the transportation, installation and use of the air conditioner, thereby effectively preventing the pipe 22 from encroaching on the movement space of other components in the air conditioner, ensuring the normal operation of the air conditioner and reducing the failure rate of the air conditioner.

[0029] It should be noted that the pipe 22 of the evaporator 2 typically includes at least one bend. During transportation, installation, and use of the air conditioner, the bend is more prone to deformation and displacement. Therefore, it is preferable that the bend of the pipe 22 is located within the limiting cavity. For example, the pipe 22 includes a first pipe section 221 and a second pipe section 222 at an angle. The free end of the first pipe section 221 is connected to the body 21. The first pipe section 221 extends generally along the height direction of the housing 1. The second pipe section 222 is located below the first pipe section 221 and extends obliquely downward. The end of the first pipe section 221 near the second pipe section 222 is located within the limiting cavity.

[0030] For example, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the end of the second pipe section 222 closest to the first pipe section 221 is located in the limiting cavity.

[0031] That is, the clamping component 3 simultaneously clamps part of the first pipe section 221 and part of the second pipe section 222, thereby making the limiting reliability of the pipe 22 of the evaporator 2 more reliable and reducing the chance of the air conditioner being affected by the deformation and displacement of the pipe 22.

[0032] Specifically, at this time, the clamping element 3 and the housing 1 surround the forming limiting cavity.

[0033] In the air conditioner of the related technology, a converging member is installed in the housing 1 to gather multiple pipes at the end of the first pipe section 221 away from the second pipe section 222. In this embodiment, the end of the first pipe section 221 away from the second pipe section 222 is located in the limiting cavity, so that the clamping member 3 also has the function of the above-mentioned converging member. This eliminates the need for the arrangement of the converging member, reduces the manufacturing cost of the air conditioner, and improves the assembly efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0034] Specifically, the clamping member 3 can be a cylindrical structure itself, which is formed around the limiting cavity used to limit the first pipe section 221.

[0035] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 1 includes a rear frame 11, and the clamping member 3 includes a first connecting part 31, a clamping part 32 and a second connecting part 33 connected in sequence. The first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 33 are both connected to the rear frame 11, and the clamping part 32 and the housing 1 surround a molded limiting cavity.

[0036] By setting both the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 33 to the rear frame 11, the connection strength between the clamping member 3 and the rear frame 11 is high, the shape of the formed limiting cavity is reliable, and the clamping member 3 has higher reliability in clamping and limiting the pipeline 22.

[0037] Specifically, the clamping part 32 of the clamping member 3 mainly realizes the clamping and limiting of the pipeline 22. The first connecting part 31, the clamping part 32 and the second connecting part 33 are integrally formed. The first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 33 are both connected to the rear frame 11 by fasteners.

[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamping part 32 is provided with a reinforcing rib 34, which extends from one end of the clamping part 32 near the first connecting part 31 to one end of the clamping part 32 near the second connecting part 33.

[0039] The addition of reinforcing rib 34 effectively improves the bending strength of the clamping part 32, thereby increasing the clamping reliability of the clamping part 32 on the pipe 22. It is less likely to deform under the action of the pipe 22 and encroach on the movement space of components such as sliding doors inside the air conditioner.

[0040] Specifically, the pressing part 32 is a bent plate structure, the width direction of which is consistent with the height direction of the shell 1, and the reinforcing rib 34 is a bent plate perpendicular to the pressing part 32.

[0041] In some embodiments, the reinforcing rib 34 is disposed on the side of the clamping part 32 away from the limiting cavity. This ensures that the side of the clamping part 32 facing the pipeline 22 is smooth, thereby preventing excessive local pressure on the pipeline 22 when the clamping part 32 clamps the pipeline 22, which could damage the pipeline 22 and effectively ensure the service life of the pipeline 22.

[0042] And / or, there are multiple reinforcing ribs 34 arranged at intervals along the height direction of the rear frame 11. The arrangement of multiple reinforcing ribs 34 further improves the bending strength of the clamping part 32, thereby further reducing the deformation of the clamping part 32 and its encroachment on the movement space of other components inside the air conditioner.

[0043] Specifically, there are four reinforcing ribs 34, two of which are folded edges formed at both ends of the clamping part 32 in the width direction, and the other two reinforcing ribs 34 are located between the two reinforcing ribs 34. They can be reinforcing plates, reinforcing strips or reinforcing rods that extend from one end of the clamping part 32 near the first connecting part 31 to one end of the clamping part 32 near the second connecting part 33.

[0044] In some embodiments, one of the first connecting portion 31 and the rear frame 11 is provided with a first positioning hole 311, and the other is provided with a first positioning post 111, the first positioning post 111 being inserted into the first positioning hole 311.

[0045] The insertion and engagement of the first positioning post 111 and the first positioning hole 311 can pre-position the clamping member 3, thereby effectively improving the connection efficiency between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 33 of the clamping member 3 and the rear frame 11.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first connecting part 31 is provided with a first positioning hole 311, which is a through hole, and the rear frame 11 is provided with a first positioning post 111. The cross-sectional outer contour of the first positioning hole 311 and the cross-sectional outer contour of the first positioning post 111 are the same.

[0047] Optionally, when the first positioning hole 311 and the first positioning post 111 are engaged, they form a circumferential constraint, preventing relative rotation between them. As a result, after the two are engaged, the positioning effect of the clamping member 3 on the rear frame 11 is higher.

[0048] For example, the cross-sectional outer contour of the first positioning hole 311 and the cross-sectional outer contour of the first positioning post 111 can be square, hexagonal, triangular, elliptical or other irregular shapes.

[0049] In some embodiments, one of the second connecting portion 33 and the rear frame 11 is provided with a second positioning hole, and the other is provided with a second positioning post, the second positioning post being inserted into the second positioning hole.

[0050] By setting the second positioning post and the second positioning hole to be inserted and engaged, combined with the first positioning post 111 and the first positioning hole 311, the positioning reliability of the clamping member 3 on the rear frame 11 is further improved, and the installation efficiency of the clamping member 3 on the rear frame 11 is higher.

[0051] Specifically, the second connecting part 33 is provided with a second positioning hole on the side facing the rear frame 11. The second positioning hole is a blind hole. The rear frame 11 is provided with a second positioning post. The outer contour of the cross-section of the second positioning hole and the second positioning post can both be rectangular.

[0052] Optionally, the extension direction of the second positioning post is the same as the extension direction of the first positioning post 111. In this case, when the clamping member 3 approaches the rear frame 11 in the same direction, the first positioning post 111 and the second positioning post can be inserted into the first positioning hole 311 and the second positioning hole respectively, and the pre-installation efficiency of the clamping member 3 on the rear frame 11 is high.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 31 is provided with a first mounting hole 312 for a first threaded member to pass through, and the rear frame 11 is provided with a first threaded hole, the first threaded member being threadedly engaged with the threaded hole. And / or, the second connecting portion 33 is provided with a second mounting hole 331 for a second threaded member to pass through, and the rear frame 11 is provided with a second threaded hole, the second threaded member being threadedly engaged with the second threaded hole.

[0054] This makes it easy to install and remove the clamping part 3 from the rear frame 11, and the connection strength between the clamping part 3 and the rear frame 11 is high.

[0055] Specifically, both the first threaded component and the second threaded component are bolts, and the first mounting hole 312 and the second mounting hole 331 are axially aligned.

[0056] In some embodiments, a portion of the clamping member 3 is recessed toward the rear frame 11, and a clearance groove is formed at the recess on the side of the clamping member 3 away from the rear frame 11.

[0057] This design further reduces the space of the limiting cavity, so as to better compress the limiting pipe 22, while also effectively preventing the newly added clamping part 3 from occupying the movement space of other components in the housing 1, thus ensuring the normal operation of the air conditioner.
