Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioner outdoor units, specifically to a waterproof and corrosion-resistant housing for air conditioner outdoor units. Background Technology
[0002] An air conditioner, also known as an air conditioning unit, is a device that artificially regulates and controls parameters such as temperature, humidity, and airflow of indoor air. It mainly consists of a cold or heat source, a cold or hot medium distribution system, terminal units, and other auxiliary equipment. Among these, the refrigeration unit, water pump, fan, and piping system are the core components. The refrigeration unit, also called the outdoor unit, is usually installed outside the user's window and is responsible for providing cooling or heating. The terminal units utilize the distributed cooling or heating to process the air, ensuring that indoor air parameters meet set requirements, thereby creating a comfortable indoor environment for people.
[0003] According to Chinese patent CN222480730U, a noise-reducing housing for an air conditioner outdoor unit is disclosed, including a base plate. A housing is fixedly installed on the upper part of the base plate. A mounting groove is opened at the front end of the housing. A ventilation plate is fixedly installed in the mounting groove. A mounting plate is fixedly installed on the housing. A top cover is fixedly installed on the mounting plate by bolts. A placement box is fixedly installed at the bottom of the housing. A rubber plate is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the placement box. By rotating the bolts, the top cover can be separated from the mounting plate. Opening the top cover makes it easy to place the air conditioner outdoor unit on the rubber plate in the placement box. The rubber plate can buffer the air conditioner outdoor unit and reduce the noise generated by the vibration of the rubber plate. Pulling the pull plate separates the limiting plate from the sound-absorbing plate, releasing the limitation plate from the sound-absorbing plate. The sound-absorbing plate can be removed from the mounting block for cleaning or replacement to ensure the sound absorption effect of the sound-absorbing plate. The operation is simple.
[0004] However, during the use of existing air conditioner outdoor unit casings, because the casings are exposed to the outside environment for many years, rainwater and impurities easily accumulate and adhere to the casings, causing chemical reactions and resulting in corrosion of the air conditioner outdoor unit. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the problem that, during the use of existing air conditioner outdoor unit casings, rainwater and impurities are easily accumulated and adhered to the air conditioner outdoor unit casing due to the long-term exposure to the outside environment, resulting in chemical reactions and corrosion of the air conditioner outdoor unit.
[0006] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is:
[0007] A waterproof and corrosion-resistant outer casing for an air conditioner outdoor unit includes an air conditioner casing body, a guide pipe, an air inlet, and an air outlet pipe.

The guide pipe has an air inlet on the inside of the air outlet and is hollowed out. An air outlet pipe is fixed on the air conditioner casing body and is connected to the guide pipe. An air outlet hole is opened on the air outlet pipe.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the flow guide pipe has a drag reduction hole, and a sealing plate is provided in the drag reduction hole. The sealing plate is rotatably connected to the drag reduction hole through a rotating rod. When the air volume of the air conditioner outlet is too large, the sealing plate will be blown up under the action of the airflow, thereby playing a role in relieving pressure.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the front of the air conditioner housing body has a storage groove, the inner wall of the storage groove has a sliding groove, and a baffle is slidably connected in the sliding groove. During transportation, the baffle can be stored in the sliding groove, which facilitates the transportation of the device.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the length of the sliding groove is greater than the width of the baffle plate, and the height of the storage groove is less than the width of the baffle plate.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the air conditioner housing body has a water leakage hole, and water guide holes are opened on both sides of the water leakage hole. The water guide holes extend to the bottom of the air conditioner housing body, and a flow guide hole is opened on the inner wall of the water guide hole. The flow guide hole is opened at the flow guide pipe, which can draw out the airflow in the flow guide pipe.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cross-section of the leakage hole is triangular, a filter box is installed on the leakage hole, the filter box has filter holes and gripping holes.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] Because this utility model has a guide pipe at the air outlet of the air conditioner, it can guide the air to the side of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and dry the outer shell of the air conditioner outdoor unit through the drying pipe, and blow away the impurities on the outer shell of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

The air inlet 3 of the guide pipe 2 can absorb part of the airflow and discharge the airflow from the air outlet 4. Finally, it acts on the air conditioner outer shell body 1 to dry the surface of the air conditioner outer shell body 1.
[0027] In one aspect of this embodiment, a drag-reducing hole 5 is provided on the flow guide pipe 2, and a sealing plate 6 is provided inside the drag-reducing hole 5. The sealing plate 6 is rotatably connected to the drag-reducing hole 5 through a rotating rod. A storage groove 7 is provided on the front of the air conditioner housing body 1, and a sliding groove 8 is provided on the inner wall of the storage groove 7. A baffle plate 9 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 8. The length of the sliding groove 8 is greater than the width of the baffle plate 9, and the height of the storage groove 7 is less than the width of the baffle plate 9. When the air volume of the air conditioner is large, the sealing plate 6 will be blown up, thereby playing a role in relieving pressure. Users can also move the baffle plate 9 out, thereby playing a role in blocking rain and reducing the probability of rainwater entering the air outlet.
[0028] In one aspect of this embodiment, a water leakage hole 10 is provided on the air conditioner housing body 1, and water guide holes 11 are provided on both sides of the water leakage hole 10.

A filter box 13 is installed on the water leakage hole 10. The filter box 13 has filter holes 14 and grab holes 15. When it rains, the rainwater will be filtered through the filter box 13 and then flow out from the water guide holes 11 on both sides of the water leakage hole 10. The triangular cross-section of the water leakage hole 10 can effectively prevent rainwater from accumulating on the upper side of the housing. At the same time, when the air conditioner is operating, the flow guide hole 12 will guide the airflow in the flow guide pipe 2 to dry the inner wall of the water guide hole 11.
[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During the use of this utility model, when the air conditioner is operating, it will export airflow from the air outlet. The air inlet 3 of the guide pipe 2 can absorb part of the airflow and discharge the airflow from the air outlet 4. Finally, it acts on the air conditioner housing body 1 to dry the surface of the air conditioner housing body 1. When the air volume of the air conditioner is large, the sealing plate 6 will be blown up, thereby playing a role in pressure relief. When it rains, the rainwater will be filtered through the filter box 13 and then flow out from the water guide holes 11 on both sides of the water leakage hole 10. The water leakage hole 10 with a triangular cross-section can effectively prevent rainwater from accumulating on the upper side of the housing. At the same time, when the air conditioner is operating, the guide hole 12 will introduce the airflow in the guide pipe 2 to dry the inner wall of the water guide hole 11.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
