[0038] 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 are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0039] The following is for reference. Figures 1-12 This invention describes an air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0040] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the air conditioner 100 includes a housing 1, a heat exchange and air supply assembly, and a display panel 2. The housing 1 has an air inlet and an air outlet 11, and the heat exchange and air supply assembly is disposed inside the housing 1.
[0041] For example, the air conditioner 100 can be a split-type air conditioner 100, which may include an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit includes the aforementioned casing 1, heat exchange and air supply assembly, and display panel 2. The heat exchange and air supply assembly is used to heat or cool the air supplied to the heat exchange and air supply unit through the air inlet and discharge it from the air outlet 11. For example, air enters the casing 1 through the air inlet, exchanges heat with the heat exchanger assembly, and is then discharged into the room through the air outlet 11, thereby regulating the indoor temperature.
[0042] The housing 1 serves to prevent dust and protect the internal components. The air inlet on the housing 1 is used to introduce indoor or outdoor air into the housing 1, and the air outlet 11 is used to exhaust the treated air into the room. For example, the air inlet is located at the rear of the housing 1, and the air outlet 11 is located at the front of the housing 1.
[0043] For example, the housing 1 may include a front housing component, a rear housing component, a top cover, and a base. An air inlet may be formed on the rear housing component, and an air outlet 11 may be formed on the front housing component. The front housing component is connected to the front side of the rear housing component, the top cover is provided on the top of both the front and rear housing components, and both the front and rear housing components are mounted on the base, which serves to support the front and rear housing components.
[0044] The housing 1 includes a mounting frame 12, and a display panel 2 is detachably mounted on the mounting frame 12. The display panel 2 is used to display relevant information about the air conditioner 100 for user viewing. The detachable mounting of the display panel 2 to the mounting frame 12 makes maintenance or replacement of the display panel 2 more convenient. Compared to a one-piece molding of the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12, the detachable connection allows the display panel 2 and housing 1 to undergo different processes. For example, the display panel 2 can use coating or spraying, and the housing 1 can be treated with other processes, resulting in greater versatility in the processing of both the display panel 2 and the housing 1, thus meeting the needs of more users.
[0045] The display panel 2 is provided with a first snap-fit structure 21, and the mounting frame 12 is provided with a second snap-fit structure 124. The first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 are snap-fit connected. When the display panel 2 is assembled to the mounting frame 12 in the direction from bottom to top, the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 snap-fit together. The snap-fit connection between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 can realize the detachable connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12, and can also make the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 simple and have strong stability. When the display panel 2 is assembled to the mounting frame 12 from bottom to top, the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 snap together. This makes the connection between the display panel 2 and the housing 1 simple and has strong stability. When the display panel 2 is assembled to the mounting frame 12 from bottom to top, the space of the housing 1 in the vertical direction can be fully utilized, making the assembly of the display panel 2 on the housing 1 smoother. The display panel 2 can also be assembled to the mounting frame 12 with relatively small force, which helps to improve the convenience of assembling the display panel 2 on the housing 1.
[0046] For example, compared to assembling the display panel 2 onto the housing 1 from the top of the outer surface or from the front of the housing 1, assembling the display panel 2 onto the mounting frame 12 from bottom to top can also guide the assembly of the display panel 2 onto the housing 1, making the assembly of the display panel 2 onto the housing 1 smoother and allowing for the assembly of the display panel 2 onto the mounting frame 12 with relatively less force, which helps to improve the convenience of assembling the display panel 2 onto the housing 1.
[0047] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, when the display panel 2 is assembled to the mounting frame 12 in the direction from bottom to top, the space of the housing 1 itself in the vertical direction can be fully utilized, so that the assembly of the display panel 2 on the housing 1 is smoother, and the display panel 2 can be assembled to the mounting frame 12 with relatively small force, which is conducive to improving the convenience of assembling the display panel 2 on the housing 1.
[0048] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the first snap-fit structure 21 includes a hook 211, and the second snap-fit structure 124 includes a slot 125. The lower side of the slot 125 is open, and the hook 211 is adapted to snap into the slot 125 upwards. The snap-fit connection between the hook 211 and the slot 125 can realize the snap-fit connection between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124, thereby making the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 simple and highly stable. When the display panel 2 is assembled onto the mounting frame 12 in an upward direction, the open lower side of the slot 125 allows the hook 211 to smoothly snap into the slot 125 upwards, thus completing the snap-fit connection between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124.
[0049] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the latch 211 includes a latching portion 212 and a connecting arm 213. The connecting arm 213 is fixed to the display panel 2 and extends in the front-to-back direction. One end of the latching portion 212 is connected to the connecting arm 213, and the other end of the latching portion 212 extends upward. The latching portion 212 is accommodated in the latching slot 125. By fixing the connecting arm 213 to the display panel 2 and extending it in the front-to-back direction, the connecting arm 213 can support and fix the latching portion 212. It can also ensure that there is a certain gap between the latching portion 212 and the display panel 2 in the front-to-back direction. In this way, when the latching portion 212 is engaged in the latching slot 125, the assembly error between the latching portion 212 and the latching slot 125 in the front-to-back direction can be eliminated, so that the latching portion 212 can be engaged into the latching slot 125 more smoothly.
[0050] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of this utility model, there are multiple hooks 211, which are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. There are also multiple slots 125, with the same number of slots 125 as the number of hooks 211, and each slot corresponds to one hook. By arranging multiple hooks 211 at intervals along the left-right direction and ensuring that the number of slots 125 corresponds to the number of hooks 211, the stability of the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 can be further enhanced. This also limits the movement of the display panel 2 in the left-right direction, reducing or avoiding the possibility of relative movement between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12. Furthermore, the engagement of multiple hooks 211 with multiple slots 125 ensures a more uniform force distribution between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12, reducing or avoiding the possibility of the engagement between a single hook 211 and slot 125 breaking due to excessive localized force.
[0051] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the first snap-fit structure 21 is located at the top of the display panel 2, and the second snap-fit structure 124 is located at the top of the mounting frame 12. By placing the first snap-fit structure 21 at the top of the display panel 2 and the second snap-fit structure 124 at the top of the mounting frame 12, the distance between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 is minimized in the vertical direction. This facilitates the snap-fit connection between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 when the display panel 2 is assembled to the mounting frame 12 from bottom to top. It also makes the overall structure of the first snap-fit structure 21 and the second snap-fit structure 124 more compact, thereby making the overall structure of the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 more compact.
[0052] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the top of the mounting frame 12 is provided with a downwardly extending first limiting rib plate 121, and a first limiting groove 214 is defined between the first snap-fit structure 21 and the display panel 2. The upper side of the first limiting groove 214 is open, and the first limiting rib plate 121 is accommodated within the first limiting groove 214. The first limiting groove 214 makes the assembly between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 more convenient, and the first limiting rib being accommodated within the first limiting groove 214 makes the overall structure of the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 more compact. It can also limit the assembly between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12, reduce the relative movement between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12, and effectively enhance the stability of the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12.
[0053] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 12 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the lower end of the display panel 2 is provided with a second limiting groove 22, the upper side of the second limiting groove 22 is open, and the bottom of the mounting frame 12 is provided with a downwardly extending second limiting rib 122, at least a portion of the second limiting rib 122 is accommodated within the second limiting groove 22. Wherein, at least a portion of the second limiting rib 122 is accommodated within the second limiting groove 22 may include the following situations: for example, a portion of the second limiting rib 122 may be accommodated within the second limiting groove 22; or, for another example, the entire second limiting rib 122 may be accommodated within the second limiting groove 22.
[0054] During the process of installing the display panel 2 from bottom to top onto the mounting frame 12, the upper side of the second limiting groove 22 is open, and the bottom of the mounting frame 12 is provided with a downwardly extending second limiting rib 122, which allows the second limiting rib 122 to be inserted into the second limiting groove 22 more smoothly. This can limit the assembly of the display panel 2 on the mounting frame 12 at the bottom of the mounting frame 12, ensuring that the assembly position between the mounting frame 12 and the display panel 2 is accurate.
[0055] Reference Figures 4-6 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the display panel 2 has a first mounting hole 23, the mounting frame 12 has a second mounting hole 123, and fasteners are inserted through the first mounting hole 23 and the second mounting hole 123. By inserting fasteners through the first mounting hole 23 and the second mounting hole 123, the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 can be simple and have strong stability.
[0056] Reference Figures 4-6 According to some embodiments of this utility model, there are multiple first mounting holes 23, which are distributed at the left and right ends of the display panel 2. There are also multiple second mounting holes 123, the number of which is the same as the number of first mounting holes 23 and corresponds one-to-one. By distributing multiple first mounting holes 23 at the left and right ends of the display panel 2, and ensuring that the number of second mounting holes 123 is the same as the number of first mounting holes 23 and corresponds one-to-one, the stability of the connection between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 can be further enhanced. This also limits the movement of the display panel 2 in the left and right directions, reducing or avoiding the possibility of relative movement between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 in the left and right directions. Furthermore, the engagement of multiple hooks 211 with multiple slots 125 can make the force distribution between the display panel 2 and the mounting frame 12 more uniform, reducing or avoiding the possibility of connection failure between the display panel 2 or the mounting frame 12 due to excessive local force.
[0057] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a display module 3 is also included. The display module 3 is detachably disposed on the mounting frame 12 and is located on the rear side of the display panel 2. The display panel 2 includes a light-transmitting part. The display module 3 is opposite to the light-transmitting part. The light-transmitting part can ensure that the light emitted by the display module 3 is transmitted to the outside of the air conditioner 100 so that the user can view the relevant information of the air conditioner 100 according to the display information emitted by the display module 3.
[0058] The mounting frame 12 is partially located on the front side of the display module 3 to limit its movement. The mounting frame 12 has a limiting structure 126 that abuts against the display module 3. The limiting structure 126 includes multiple limiting buckles 1261, which are located on opposite sides of the mounting frame 12 in the vertical direction and abut against the rear side of the display module 3. By partially positioning the mounting frame 12 on the front side of the display module 3 and abutting against the rear side of the display module 3, the limiting buckles 1261 effectively press the display module 3 firmly against the mounting frame 12. This limits the forward and backward movement of the display module 3, reducing the possibility of relative movement in this direction and simplifying the connection between the display module 3 and the mounting frame 12, resulting in a more stable and reliable connection.
[0059] Compared to fixing the display module 3 to the mounting frame 12 with fasteners, the mounting frame 12 partially limits the display module 3 from the front, and the limiting buckle 1261 abuts against the rear of the display module 3. This makes the assembly process of the display module 3 on the mounting frame 12 simpler, reduces the time required for fastener assembly, improves assembly efficiency, reduces the number of parts, and lowers manufacturing costs.
[0060] In addition, by having multiple limiting buckles 1261 located on opposite sides of the mounting frame 12 in the vertical direction, the display module 3 can also be limited in the vertical direction, reducing the possibility of the display module 3 moving relative to each other in the vertical direction.
[0061] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 11According to some embodiments of this utility model, the limiting structure 126 further includes multiple limiting ribs 1262. These multiple limiting ribs 1262 are located on opposite sides of the display module 3 in the vertical direction, and abut against the upper and lower sides of the display module 3 respectively. By having multiple limiting ribs 1262 located on opposite sides of the display module 3 in the vertical direction and abutting against the upper and lower sides of the display module 3 respectively, the assembly position of the display module 3 on the mounting frame 12 is accurate. This also further enhances the limiting effect on the display module 3, effectively reducing the possibility of relative movement of the display module 3 in the vertical direction.
[0062] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 According to some embodiments of this utility model, the display module 3 includes a display body 31 and a mounting part 32. The mounting part 32 is located on the outer periphery of the display body 31. A limiting structure 126 abuts against the mounting part 32, and a sealing layer 33 is provided between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12. By the limiting buckle 1261 of the limiting structure 126 abutting against the rear side of the mounting part 32, a certain clamping force can be provided to the mounting part 32 to press and fix the mounting part 32 onto the mounting frame 12. By providing a sealing layer 33 between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12, the gap between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12 can be fully utilized to reduce noise between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12.
[0063] For example, the vibration of the air conditioner 100 during operation may cause the mounting part 32 to collide with the mounting frame 12. By providing a sealing layer 33 between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12, the collision force between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12 can be effectively buffered, thereby reducing the noise generated by the collision between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12.
[0064] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the sealing layer 33 is a sponge component. The sponge component can effectively buffer the collision force between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12, and can also absorb the noise generated by the collision between the mounting part 32 and the mounting frame 12, thereby achieving noise reduction effects such as sound absorption and noise reduction.
