[0002] In existing air conditioning equipment, magnetic switches and humidity sensors are important functional components that need to be installed separately. The magnetic switch is mainly used for position detection and control, while the humidity sensor is used for environmental humidity monitoring and regulation.

[0003] In existing technologies, the magnetic switch mounting position and the humidity sensor mounting position are located in different areas of the air conditioning component. This dispersed layout leads to complex assembly processes and lengthy cable routing paths, which not only increases the time cost of production and assembly but also easily causes reliability issues such as wire tangling or poor contact. Especially in confined space scenarios, the separate installation of the two functional components requires the design of a separate fixing structure, which increases mold development costs and reduces the convenience of maintenance and repair.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need in the art for a connection device and an air conditioner to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0054] In existing air conditioning equipment, magnetic switches and humidity sensors, as important functional components, need to be installed separately. The magnetic switch is mainly used for position detection and control, and its core functions include: 1. Position signal feedback: By detecting the position of the magnetic ring of the cylinder piston or moving parts, it sends a switching signal to the controller to realize the equipment's stop, start, or cyclic control; 2. Safety protection: For example, in oil level monitoring, the magnetic switch can trigger high / low level alarms to prevent overflow or dry burning. The humidity sensor is used for environmental humidity monitoring and regulation, and its main functions are: 1. Humidity data acquisition: By detecting the relative humidity of the air through a humidity-sensing element, it outputs an electrical signal to the air conditioning system to adjust humidification / dehumidification; 2. Comfort control: Working in conjunction with the temperature sensor, it optimizes the air conditioning operation mode and improves human comfort.

[0055] In existing technologies, the magnetic switch mounting position and the humidity sensor mounting position are located in different areas of the air conditioning component. This dispersed layout leads to complex assembly processes and lengthy cable routing paths, which not only increases the time cost of production and assembly but also easily causes reliability issues such as wire tangling or poor contact. Especially in confined space scenarios, the separate installation of the two functional components requires the design of a separate fixing structure, which increases mold development costs and reduces the convenience of maintenance and repair.

[0056] First, see Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a structural schematic diagram of the connecting device provided by this utility model, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a connecting device with a first slot 1 and a second slot 2. The first slot 1 is configured to install a humidity sensor, and the second slot 2 is configured to install a magnetic switch. Based on the above structural configuration, this utility model, by separately placing the magnetic switch and humidity sensor on the connecting device, allows the two components to be integrated into a single base design, thereby reducing the complexity of cable routing and facilitating assembly and maintenance. Simultaneously, placing the magnetic switch and humidity sensor in two different slots avoids magnetic interference affecting the humidity detection accuracy, improving the precision of humidity data acquisition. It should be noted that this utility model does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure and placement of the first slot 1 and the second slot 2, only requiring that the first slot 1 be compatible with the humidity sensor and the second slot 2 be compatible with the magnetic switch. Technicians can configure these according to actual usage requirements.

[0057] In this preferred embodiment, the connecting device provided by this utility model is further provided with a first wire port 3, see [link to previous embodiment]. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the wiring in the first part of the connecting device provided by this utility model. (See diagram below.) Figure 2 As shown, the first wire inlet 3 and the first slot 1 are interconnected to form a first wiring channel 01, which is configured to accommodate the connection wire of the humidity sensor. (See also...) Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the wiring in the second part of the connecting device provided by this utility model. (See diagram below.) Figure 3 As shown, the first wire port 3 and the second slot 2 are interconnected to form a second wiring channel 02, which is configured to accommodate the connecting wire of the magnetic switch. By connecting the first wire port 3 to the first slot 1 and the second slot 2 respectively, two different wiring channels are formed, ensuring that the connecting wires of the humidity sensor and the magnetic switch do not interfere with each other during wiring, reducing reliability issues such as wire tangling or poor contact. It should be noted that this invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure and location of the first wire port 3, only requiring that the first wire port 3 can accommodate the connecting wires of the humidity sensor and the magnetic switch. Technicians can set it themselves according to actual usage requirements.

Technicians can set it themselves according to actual usage requirements.

[0059] In this preferred embodiment, the first cover 11 is provided with a plurality of holes 12, which are arranged in an array on the first cover 11.

It should be noted that this invention does not impose any limitations on the specific structure or number of holes 12; those skilled in the art can set them according to actual usage requirements. For example, as... Figure 1 As shown, the holes 12 can be elongated and arranged in two rows and four columns on the first cover 11.

[0060] In this preferred embodiment, the connecting device provided by this utility model further includes a second cover 21, which is rotatably connected to one side of the second slot 2.

[0062] In this preferred embodiment, the connecting device provided by this utility model is further provided with a third slot 4 and a second wire port 5. The third slot 4 is configured to install a temperature sensor, so the temperature sensor, magnetic switch and humidity sensor can be respectively set on the connecting device. The three components can be integrated into a single base design, which can reduce the complexity of cable laying and facilitate assembly and maintenance. At the same time, setting the temperature sensor, magnetic switch and humidity sensor in three different slots can also avoid magnetic interference affecting the accuracy of temperature and humidity detection and improve the accuracy of temperature and humidity data acquisition.

[0063] In this preferred embodiment, see Figure 2The second lead-in port 5 and the third slot 4 are interconnected to form a third wiring channel 03, which is configured to accommodate the connection wire of the temperature sensor. By connecting the second lead-in port 5 and the third slot 4 to form a new wiring channel, the connection wires of the temperature sensor, humidity sensor, and magnetic switch do not interfere with each other during wiring, reducing reliability issues such as wire tangling or poor contact. It should be noted that this invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure and placement of the second lead-in port 5 and the third slot 4, as long as the third slot 4 is compatible with the temperature sensor and the second lead-in port 5 can accommodate the connection wire of the temperature sensor. Technicians can set it according to actual usage requirements.
