The drain nozzle 3 is located at the bottom of the water receiving frame 2 and communicates with the water trough 21.

[0022] This utility model discloses a water collection tray assembly, including a water collection bracket 1, a water collection frame 2, a drain nozzle 3, and a quick-connect device 4. The water collection frame 2 has a water trough 21 on the side facing the water collection bracket 1. The water collection bracket 1 has multiple drain outlets 11 corresponding to the water trough 21. The water collection bracket 1 is installed inside an outdoor unit, and a heat exchanger can be placed on the water collection bracket 1. The multiple drain outlets 11 are respectively connected to the outlet of the heat exchanger. Condensate falls into the water trough 21 and is discharged through the drain nozzle 3. The quick-connect device 4 can quickly connect the water collection frame 2 and the water collection bracket 1. In this water collection tray assembly, the water collection bracket 1 provides support for the heat exchanger and guides the flow of condensate through the multiple drain outlets 11. The stacked water collection frame 2 achieves distributed collection and centralized discharge of condensate, simplifying the drainage pipeline. Furthermore, the quick-connect device 4 connects the water collection frame 2 and the water collection bracket 1, reducing the difficulty of assembling and disassembling the water collection tray assembly.

[0023] The water collection bracket 1 includes a stacked water collection tray 12 and a reinforcing truss 13. Multiple drain outlets 11 are respectively provided on the water collection tray 12. The reinforcing truss 13 has a clearance groove 14 on the side facing the water collection tray 12. The water receiving frame 2 is snapped onto the clearance groove 14. The quick-connect device 4 connects the water collection tray 12 and the water receiving frame 2. On the one hand, the layering of the water collection tray 12 and the reinforcing truss 13 enhances the overall strength of the water collection bracket 1, enabling it to withstand greater loads. On the other hand, the clearance groove 14 can further support the water receiving frame 2, improving the stability of the connection.

[0024] The reinforcing truss 13 includes a first crossbar 15, a second crossbar 16, and two connecting rods 17. The first crossbar 15 and the second crossbar 16 are respectively located on both sides of the water collection tray 12. The two connecting rods 17 are located between the first crossbar 15 and the second crossbar 16. The two ends of each connecting rod 17 are connected to the first crossbar 15 and the second crossbar 16, respectively. The clearance groove 14 is located on one end of the first crossbar 15.

[0025] The water receiving frame 2 is L-shaped. The quick-connect device 4 includes a first buckle 41, a second buckle 42, a insertion slot 43, an insertion block 44, and a connector 45. The first buckle 41 and the connector 45 are arranged adjacent to each other along the width direction of the water collection tray 12. The connector 45 is located adjacent to the clearance groove 14 on the water collection tray 12 and is parallel to the clearance groove 14. The second buckle 42 and the insertion slot 43 are arranged adjacent to each other on any of the connecting rods 17. The opening directions of the first buckle 41 and the second buckle 42 are both aligned with the clearance groove. The openings of 14 are aligned. The plug-in block 44 is mounted on the water receiving frame 2. The plug-in block 44 and the plug-in groove 43 are engaged. The connector 45 and the water receiving frame 2 are respectively provided with screw holes. Referring to the figure, the first buckle 41 and the second buckle 42 correspond to the insertion direction of the water receiving frame 2. The connector 45 provides guidance when the water receiving frame 2 is inserted. The plug-in block 44 and the plug-in groove 43 are respectively inserted. Then, the screws are passed through the screw holes of the connector 45 and the water receiving frame 2 in sequence to achieve limiting and fixing, while taking into account both installation efficiency and stability.

[0026] The first buckle 41 and the second buckle 42 have the same structure. The first buckle 41 includes a fixing plate 46, an L-shaped part 47, and a bending part 48. The fixing plate 46 is connected to the water collection tray 12. The top end of the L-shaped part 47 is connected to one side of the fixing plate 46. The bending part 48 is located at the bottom end of the L-shaped part 47. The bending part 48 extends obliquely along the edge of the L-shaped part 47 toward the side away from the fixing plate 46. The fixing plate 46 is connected and fixed to the water collection tray 12. The water receiving frame 2 is inserted into the L-shaped part 47 to achieve a snap-fit ​​fixation. The oblique arrangement of the bending part 48 increases the size of the opening of the L-shaped part 47 when the water receiving frame 2 is inserted, which is convenient for alignment. When the water receiving frame 2 contacts the bending part 48, the bending part 48 guides the water receiving frame 2 to insert, making assembly convenient.

[0027] The water receiving frame 2 includes a first water receiving trough 22, a second water receiving trough 23, a water collecting hopper 24, and two grooves 25. The two grooves 25 are respectively disposed on the water collecting hopper 24. One end of the first water receiving trough 22 and the second water receiving trough 23 are respectively engaged with the two grooves 25. The first water receiving trough 22 is provided with a first flow channel, and the second water receiving trough 23 is provided with a second flow channel. The first flow channel, the water collecting hopper 24, and the second flow channel are connected to form the water trough 21. The drain nozzle 3 is disposed at the bottom of the water collecting hopper 24. The bottom of the drain end of the first water receiving trough 22 is inclined towards the drain nozzle 3 and has a first water guiding slope 26. The bottom of the drain end of the second water receiving trough 23 is inclined towards the drain nozzle 3 and has a second water guiding slope 27. The first water receiving trough 22 and the second water receiving trough 23 are respectively set for multiple drain outlets 11, and guide the condensate to be discharged into the water collection hopper 24 and then discharged from the drain nozzle 3. The setting of the first water guiding slope 26 and the second water guiding slope 27, on the one hand, extends the bottom of the first water receiving trough 22 and the second water receiving trough 23, so that the drain point is closer to the drain nozzle 3. On the other hand, it forms an inclined surface to prevent the condensate from flowing along the edge of the water receiving trough to the bottom of the water receiving trough due to the surface tension of the liquid, thus avoiding water leakage.

[0028] The water receiving tray assembly also includes a heating wire 5, which is disposed inside the water tank 21 to prevent the liquid in the water tank 21 from freezing in a low-temperature environment, thereby avoiding blockage or damage to the assembly caused by freezing.
