Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to a display panel mounting structure and an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] Modern air conditioners not only have basic cooling and heating functions, but also integrate various intelligent features such as intelligent control, remote operation, and environmental monitoring. To achieve human-computer interaction, air conditioners usually have a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) display board inside to display information such as operating status, mode, and temperature.
[0003] Currently, most air conditioner PCB display boards on the market are installed inside the air conditioner panel or housing using methods such as screw fixing, snap-fit, or adhesive bonding. However, these traditional installation structures generally suffer from problems such as complex structure, cumbersome assembly process, and inconvenient disassembly and assembly. Specifically, while screw fixing provides a secure connection, it requires special tools for disassembly and assembly, increasing the time and cost of production assembly and subsequent maintenance. It also makes repairs difficult due to stripped or lost screws. While snap-fit or adhesive bonding simplifies the structure to some extent, it often suffers from insufficient snap-fit strength, easy breakage, or irreversible bonding, making disassembly and replacement difficult.
[0004] Furthermore, as the display panel is one of the core control and display components of an air conditioner, its stability and maintainability directly affect the overall reliability of the unit and the user experience. A complex installation structure not only hinders large-scale, rapid assembly on the production line but also increases the operational difficulty for technicians and reduces maintenance efficiency during after-sales repair. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a display board mounting structure and an air conditioner to solve the defects of the existing PCB display board mounting structure, such as complex installation, inconvenient disassembly and assembly, and low maintenance efficiency. It enables quick tool-free installation and disassembly of the display board, improving assembly efficiency and maintenance convenience.
[0006] This utility model provides a display panel mounting structure, comprising: a base plate, which forms at least a part of the outer casing of an air conditioner, and has a mounting area thereon for mounting a display panel; a snap-fit assembly, including a plurality of snap-fit structures disposed on the base plate around the mounting area, the snap-fit structures being used for edge-limiting engagement with the display panel; and an elastic attachment disposed on the base plate and located at the edge of the mounting area, for providing an elastic force parallel to the base plate to the display panel, the elastic attachment and at least one of the snap-fit structures being respectively disposed on opposite sides of the mounting area.
[0007] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the buckle structure includes: a vertical plate, which is vertically disposed on the base plate; a wedge-shaped hook, which is disposed on the side of the vertical plate facing the installation area and located at the top of the vertical plate; and a reinforcing plate, which is disposed on the side of the vertical plate facing away from the installation area and is vertically connected between the vertical plate and the base plate.
[0008] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of buckle structures are divided into multiple groups, and the multiple groups of buckle structures are respectively disposed on different sides of the installation area; wherein, each group includes at least two buckle structures disposed at intervals on the same edge of the installation area.
[0009] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the buckle assembly further includes a plurality of limiting plates disposed on the base plate around the mounting area; the limiting plates provide a limiting function parallel to the base plate at the edge position of the display panel in the mounted state of the display panel.
[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the limiting plate has an L-shaped notch on the side facing the installation area; in the installed state of the display panel, the edge of the display panel is located within the L-shaped notch, wherein the horizontal portion of the L-shaped notch provides support between the display panel and the base plate, and the vertical portion of the L-shaped notch provides a limiting function parallel to the base plate.
[0011] According to one embodiment of the present invention, at the top position of the L-shaped notch, the limiting plate is provided with a beveled edge or an arc-shaped bevel.
[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic attachment includes: a fixing part disposed on the base plate and located on one side of the installation area; and an elastic part disposed on the fixing part, wherein in a natural state, the elastic part is biased towards the installation area based on its own elastic force.
[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic part includes elastic arms connected to both sides of the fixed part; in the assembled state, the elastic arms on both sides simultaneously elastically press against the edge of the display panel.
[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic arm is provided with a U-shaped structure at the position where it is connected to the fixed part, so as to generate elastic deformation when the elastic arm is compressed.
[0015] This utility model also provides an air conditioner, including the display panel mounting structure of the above embodiments.
[0016] This utility model provides a display panel mounting structure and an air conditioner. By setting an mounting area on a base plate that forms part of the air conditioner's outer casing, and configuring multiple snap-fit structures around this area along with elastic attachments located on opposite edges of the mounting area, a synergistic positioning and clamping mechanism is formed. The snap-fit structures circumferentially limit the edges of the display panel, achieving reliable fixation perpendicular to the base plate. The elastic attachments apply an elastic preload parallel to the plane of the base plate to the display panel, pressing it against the opposite side of the snap-fit structures, effectively preventing the display panel from loosening or detaching during vibration or handling. This mounting structure eliminates the need for screws or other fasteners, enabling tool-free push-in installation and press-release disassembly of the display panel: during installation, simply align the display panel with the snap-fits and slide or press it into place; the elastic attachments deform under pressure and then recover, completing the locking process. During disassembly, simply press the display panel to overcome the pressure of the elastic attachments, allowing the edges to disengage from the snap-fits for removal. This significantly simplifies the assembly process, improves production efficiency, and facilitates after-sales maintenance and component replacement. Attached Figure Description

[0025] This utility model provides a mounting structure for a display PCB board in an air conditioner, which allows for quick installation of the display board and is reliable in structure. The following describes the structure in conjunction with... Figures 1-4 This invention describes the specific implementation of the display panel mounting structure and the air conditioner of this utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, this utility model provides a display panel mounting structure, including: a base plate 10, which forms at least a part of the air conditioner casing, and has a mounting area 11 for mounting the display panel; a snap-fit assembly, including a plurality of snap-fit structures 12 disposed around the mounting area 11 on the base plate 10, the snap-fit structures 12 being used for edge-limiting engagement with the display panel; and an elastic attachment 13 disposed on the base plate 10 and located at the edge of the mounting area 11, for providing an elastic force parallel to the base plate 10 to the display panel, the elastic attachment 13 and at least one snap-fit structure 12 being respectively disposed on opposite sides of the mounting area 11. Specifically, the solution integrates the snap-fit assembly and the elastic attachment 13 on the base plate 10 to construct a self-locking, easily detachable display panel positioning system. The plurality of snap-fit structures 12 are distributed along the periphery of the mounting area 11, forming a circumferential limit on the edge of the display panel, ensuring its positioning and preventing detachment in the direction perpendicular to the base plate 10. The elastic attachment 13 is located on one edge of the mounting area 11 and is positioned on opposite sides of at least one snap-fit structure 12, forming a "one-end pressing, one-end snap-fit" mating layout. The elastic attachment 13 can be an elastic arm, a spring sheet, or a spring support structure, and its direction of action is parallel to the surface of the base plate 10. It can apply a lateral elastic preload to the display panel, so that the display panel is continuously subjected to a pressing force towards the snap-fit structure 12 after it is installed in place, thereby effectively preventing loosening or detachment caused by vibration, impact, or thermal expansion and contraction.
[0027] In practical applications, this display panel mounting structure can be installed using a push-pull tool-free method. During installation, the display panel is first tilted so that one end is inserted from the side where the elastic attachment 13 is located. The edge of this end presses against the elastic attachment 13, causing deformation and displacement. As the display panel continues to slide in, the other end gradually enters the snap-fit structure 12 on the opposite side of the elastic attachment 13, achieving snap-fit positioning. When the display panel is fully pushed in, the elastic attachment 13, due to its deformation recovery, applies continuous lateral pressure to the display panel, firmly pressing it against the snap-fit structure 12, forming a stable anti-disengagement locking state. For disassembly, pressure is simply applied from the side of the elastic attachment 13, causing that end of the display panel to compress the elastic attachment 13 and disengage from the snap-fit. Then, it can be tilted and pulled out to complete disassembly. The entire process requires no tools, is simple and quick to operate, significantly improving production line assembly efficiency and after-sales maintenance convenience, and is especially suitable for residential and commercial air conditioning products with high requirements for repair response speed and user experience.
[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, the snap-fit structure 12 includes: a vertical plate 121, vertically disposed on the base plate 10; a wedge hook 122, disposed on the side of the vertical plate 121 facing the mounting area 11 and located at the top of the vertical plate 121; and a reinforcing plate 123, disposed on the side of the vertical plate 121 facing away from the mounting area 11 and vertically connected between the vertical plate 121 and the base plate 10. The snap-fit structure 12 adopts an integrated design combining the vertical plate 121, the wedge hook 122, and the reinforcing plate 123, which not only achieves reliable snap-fit positioning of the edge of the display panel, but also significantly improves the structural strength and assembly guidance.
[0029] The upright plate 121 is vertically mounted on the base plate 10, forming the main support structure of the snap-fit mechanism. The wedge hook 122 is located at the top of the upright plate 121 on the side facing the installation area 11. Its front end is designed as a sloping guide structure, which can smoothly compress and guide the display panel when it comes into contact with the edge of the panel during installation. This allows the display panel to slide along the sloping surface and gradually press down or move out of position when pushed in, achieving a "self-guided" function and reducing assembly difficulty. When the display panel is fully in place, the hook of the wedge hook 122 engages with the edge of the display panel, forming an axial (i.e., perpendicular to the base plate 10) limit, preventing it from coming off due to vibration or external force during normal use. Furthermore, the reinforcing plate 123 is disposed on the side of the upright plate 121 facing away from the installation area 11, and vertically connects the upright plate 121 and the base plate 10 to form a triangular or L-shaped support structure, which effectively enhances the bending stiffness and overall stability of the upright plate 121, and avoids deformation or breakage under frequent installation and disassembly or long-term stress, thereby ensuring the durability and reliability of the snap-fit structure 12.
[0030] Furthermore, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, multiple snap-fit structures 12 are divided into multiple groups, and the multiple groups of snap-fit structures 12 are respectively arranged on different sides of the mounting area 11; wherein, each group includes at least two snap-fit structures 12 spaced apart on the same edge of the mounting area 11. Multiple snap-fit structures 12 are grouped and arranged on different sides (such as the upper side, lower side, or left and right sides) of the mounting area 11, and each group includes at least two snap-fit structures 12 spaced apart on the same edge. This distribution method can achieve multi-point, balanced circumferential constraint on the display panel, ensuring that it is evenly stressed after installation and does not warp or shift. For example, setting a group of two spaced snap-fit structures 12 on the upper edge of the mounting area 11 can effectively prevent the display panel from rotating or sliding in the lateral direction; while setting corresponding snap-fit groups on the lower side or other sides further enhances the overall stability of the fixing. Meanwhile, when the elastic attachment 13 is set on the side opposite to a certain buckle group (e.g., the buckle group is set on the upper side and the elastic attachment 13 is set on the lower side), a lever-type pressing fit can be formed during installation: one end of the display panel is first pressed in through the elastic attachment 13 side, and the other end is then snapped into the buckle group on the opposite side.
[0031] According to the display panel mounting structure of this utility model, the snap-fit assembly further includes a plurality of limiting plates 14 disposed on the base plate 10 surrounding the mounting area 11; the limiting plates 14 provide a limiting function parallel to the base plate 10 at the edge position of the display panel in the mounted state. Specifically, the limiting plates 14 are disposed on the base plate 10 surrounding the mounting area 11, and cooperate with the snap-fit structure 12 to further improve the positioning accuracy and lateral stability of the display panel installation. The limiting plates 14 are distributed along the edge of the mounting area 11, and their inner sides form a limiting surface that matches the edge of the display panel. After the display panel is installed in place, the limiting surface constrains the periphery of the display panel from the side (i.e., in a direction parallel to the base plate 10), preventing it from displacing in the horizontal plane in the front-back or left-right directions. Especially during the operation of the air conditioner, the vibration of the fan or the thermal expansion and contraction of the outer casing may cause slight movement of internal components. The limiting plates 14 can effectively suppress the shaking of the display panel in the plane, ensuring that it is always in the correct position. In addition, the limiting plate 14 usually adopts a thin plate structure with a certain degree of elasticity, which not only facilitates the sliding installation of the display panel, but also provides stable lateral support after it is in place.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, four snap-fit structures 12 are arranged in pairs on opposite sides of the mounting area 11 (e.g., two pairs located on the upper and lower sides of the mounting area 11 respectively), forming a symmetrical force-bearing layout. This ensures that the display panel receives balanced snap-fit pressure axially, preventing warping or stress concentration caused by unilateral force. Combined with the aforementioned multiple limiting plates 14, two or more limiting plates 14 can be installed on the left and right sides or other locations where snap-fit groups are not present, thereby achieving comprehensive limiting of the display panel's four edges. The snap-fit structures 12 are responsible for the main axial locking and anti-dislodgement functions, while the limiting plates 14 undertake the lateral positioning and anti-displacement functions. The elastic attachment 13 provides clamping force on the opposite side of one of the snap-fit structures 12. These three elements work together to form a stable installation system. This preferred structure ensures ease of installation while improving the structural stability and reliability of the display panel under complex working conditions.
[0033] Furthermore, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, the limiting plate 14 is provided with an L-shaped notch 141 on the side facing the mounting area 11. In the installed state of the display panel, the edge of the display panel is located within the L-shaped notch 141. The horizontal portion of the L-shaped notch 141 provides support between the display panel and the base plate 10, while the vertical portion of the L-shaped notch 141 provides a limiting function parallel to the base plate 10. Specifically, the structure of the L-shaped notch 141 achieves both support and limiting of the display panel edge. After the display panel is installed in place, its side edge is embedded in the L-shaped notch 141. The horizontal section (lateral portion) of the L-shaped notch 141 supports the bottom edge of the display panel, providing vertical support. The vertical section (longitudinal portion) of the L-shaped notch 141 fits against the side edge of the display panel, forming a limiting surface parallel to the plane of the base plate 10, restricting the lateral movement of the display panel in the horizontal direction, thereby preventing it from shifting or wobbling in the left-right or front-back directions. This L-shaped structure not only improves the reliability of the limit switch, but also enhances the guidance during the installation process.
[0034] Furthermore, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, a limiting plate 14 is provided with a chamfered edge or an arc-shaped chamfer at the top position of the L-shaped notch 141. This chamfered structure plays a crucial guiding role during installation. When the display panel is inserted at an angle or pushed along the installation path, its upper edge first contacts the chamfered area at the top of the L-shaped notch 141. The chamfered or arc-shaped design can convert the vertical contact force into a smooth lateral component force, guiding the display panel to slide smoothly into the L-shaped notch 141, avoiding jamming, scratching, or damage to the edge of the display panel caused by sharp right angles. Especially in automated assembly or manual rapid insertion processes, this chamfer significantly reduces the assembly difficulty and improves the operational error tolerance and assembly efficiency. The design of the L-shaped notch 141 combined with the top chamfer takes into account the ease of installation, structural strength, and long-term stability, further optimizing the overall performance of the display panel mounting structure.
[0035] According to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, the elastic attachment 13 includes: a fixing part 131, disposed on a base plate 10 and located on one side of the mounting area 11; and an elastic part 132, disposed on the fixing part 131. In its natural state, the elastic part 132 deflects into the mounting area 11 based on its own elastic force. Specifically, the elastic attachment 13 is composed of the fixing part 131 and the elastic part 132, forming an elastic clamping unit integrated on the base plate 10. The fixing part 131 is connected to the base plate 10 and located on one side edge of the mounting area 11, serving as the supporting foundation for the entire elastic attachment 13. The elastic part 132 is disposed on the fixing part 131. In its natural, unloaded state, it deflects into the mounting area 11 based on the elastic properties of the material itself (such as using a plastic or metal material with a certain elasticity), that is, its free end extends towards the center of the mounting area 11 and has a preset elastic restoring force. When the display panel is installed, its edge first contacts the front end of the elastic part 132, pressing the elastic part 132 outward (i.e., away from the installation area 11) to deform. As the display panel continues to be pushed in, the elastic part 132 continues to store energy and deform until the display panel is fully in place and engages with the snap-fit structure 12 on the opposite side. At this time, the elastic part 132 continuously applies a clamping force parallel to the base plate 10 to the display panel, firmly pressing it against the snap-fit structure 12 on the opposite side to achieve a stable fit. This structure can achieve reliable anti-loosening without additional fasteners, significantly improving the ease of disassembly and assembly.
[0036] Furthermore, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, the elastic part 132 includes elastic arms connected to both sides of the fixed part 131, forming a symmetrical double-arm pressing structure. In the assembled state, the elastic arms on both sides simultaneously elastically press against the edge of the display panel. The free ends of the two elastic arms simultaneously contact and elastically press against different positions on the same side edge of the display panel, achieving uniform force application at two points. Compared with the single-arm structure, the double elastic arm design can more effectively prevent the display panel from tilting or twisting during the pressing process, ensuring its installation posture is flat and the force is balanced. At the same time, the elastic arms on both sides jointly bear the deformation and recovery force, improving the overall load-bearing capacity and fatigue life of the elastic accessory 13.
[0037] Furthermore, according to a display panel mounting structure of this utility model, a U-shaped structure is provided at the connection position between the elastic arm and the fixing part 131. This U-shaped structure serves as a stress release zone and deformation hub for elastic deformation, allowing the elastic arm to undergo elastic deformation when compressed. When the elastic arm bends outward under pressure from the edge of the display panel, the U-shaped structure, due to its greater flexibility and arc transition characteristics, can concentrate and guide the material to undergo controllable bending deformation, effectively reducing the risk of stress concentration and extending the service life of the elastic accessory 13. The U-shaped structure is equivalent to a miniature spring hinge, enhancing the elastic arm's resilience and durability, ensuring that it maintains a stable elastic force output after multiple installation and disassembly cycles and will not fail due to plastic deformation. This design ensures functional reliability while also considering structural durability.
[0038] The air conditioner provided by this utility model is described below. The air conditioner described below can be referred to in correspondence with the display panel mounting structure described above.
[0039] This utility model also provides an air conditioner including the display panel mounting structure described in the above embodiments. Specifically, the air conditioner provided by this utility model integrates the above-described display panel mounting structure, which is located on the front panel or top control area of the air conditioner casing, serving as an important supporting component for the human-machine interface. The air conditioner casing is at least partially composed of a base plate 10, and the PCB display panel is mounted in the mounting area 11 of the base plate 10, and is quickly and reliably fixed by a snap-fit assembly and an elastic attachment 13. During assembly, the display panel does not require screws or auxiliary tools; installation is completed simply by oblique insertion and pushing into place. One end is first pressed into the side with the elastic attachment 13, compressing the elastic arm to cause elastic deformation, while the other end is then snapped into the wedge hook 122 structure on the opposite side. After installation, the elastic attachment 13 recovers its deformation and continuously applies lateral pressure to the display panel, ensuring it is stably attached to the base plate 10. At the same time, multiple limiting plates 14 and the snap-fit structure 12 work together to achieve circumferential limiting, ensuring that the display panel remains stable under vibration during air conditioner operation.
[0040] This display panel mounting structure not only improves the assembly efficiency of the entire air conditioner and reduces the process complexity of the production line, but also facilitates after-sales maintenance. When it is necessary to replace the display panel or perform circuit testing, maintenance personnel only need to apply pressure from the elastic attachment 13 side to disengage the display panel from the clip, allowing for easy removal without disassembling the outer casing or other components. This significantly shortens maintenance time and improves the service experience. By applying the above-mentioned display panel mounting structure to air conditioners, this invention achieves tool-free, highly reliable installation of the display component, taking into account the needs of the entire life cycle of production, use, and maintenance, and effectively improving the overall design level and manufacturing efficiency of air conditioners.
