[0045] With technological advancements and rising living standards, window air conditioners have gradually become a common feature of people's lives. As a compact air conditioner that can be installed on a window, a window air conditioner is a single unit. One part of the unit is located indoors, while the other is located outdoors. The condenser and evaporator are arranged horizontally, regulating the indoor temperature.

[0046] In order to prevent the noise generated by the compressor and outdoor fan of the window air conditioner from affecting users, the window air conditioner is usually designed in a saddle shape, thereby isolating the compressor and outdoor fan and other components on the outdoor side to achieve a silent effect.

[0047] However, the indoor part (indoor unit) of the saddle-shaped window air conditioner is located at a low position, so that the position of the air outlet located indoors is low, thereby affecting the cooling effect of the window air conditioner.

[0048] To address the aforementioned technical issues, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a window air conditioner 100. The indoor unit of the window air conditioner 100 can slide up and down via a sliding assembly and be held at a predetermined height by a locking assembly and a mating assembly. This facilitates user adjustment of the indoor unit's air outlet height as needed, thereby improving the cooling effect of the window air conditioner.

[0049] Below, for the convenience of description, as shown in Figure 1, the front and rear direction of the window air conditioner 100 (i.e., the arrangement direction of the indoor unit and the outdoor unit) is defined as the first direction A, the left and right direction of the window air conditioner 100 is defined as the second direction B (i.e., the second predetermined direction), and the up and down direction (i.e., the height direction) of the indoor unit 1 is defined as the third direction C (i.e., the first predetermined direction).

[0050] In some embodiments, the window air conditioner 100 can be installed on a wall having a mounting opening (eg, a window), wherein a first portion of the window air conditioner 100 is located outdoors, and a second portion of the window air conditioner 100 is located indoors.

[0051] 1 , the window type air conditioner 100 includes an outdoor unit 1 (ie, a first portion of the window type air conditioner 100 ). The outdoor unit 1 is located outdoors.

[0052] The outdoor unit 1 includes a compressor. The compressor is configured to compress refrigerant, converting low-pressure refrigerant into high-pressure refrigerant. The compressor includes an exhaust port and a return port. Low-pressure refrigerant enters the compressor through the return port, where it is compressed into high-pressure refrigerant before being discharged through the exhaust port. This high-pressure refrigerant releases heat in the condenser. After decompression, the refrigerant absorbs heat in the evaporator. Finally, the refrigerant enters the compressor through the return port, repeating the cycle.

[0053] The outdoor unit 1 also includes a first heat exchanger (outdoor heat exchanger). The first heat exchanger is configured to exchange heat between outdoor air and the refrigerant transported through the first heat exchanger. For example, when the window air conditioner 100 is in cooling mode, the first heat exchanger operates as a condenser, with the compressor's exhaust port connected to the first heat exchanger. When the window air conditioner 100 is in heating mode, the first heat exchanger operates as an evaporator, with the compressor's return air port connected to the first heat exchanger.

[0054] The outdoor unit 1 also includes an expansion valve. This valve is connected between the second heat exchanger 15 (see Figure 6) and the first heat exchanger of the indoor unit. The opening of the expansion valve regulates the refrigerant pressure flowing through the second heat exchanger 15 and the first heat exchanger, thereby adjusting the refrigerant flow rate between the second heat exchanger 15 and the first heat exchanger.

[0055] The outdoor unit 1 further includes a four-way valve disposed in the refrigerant circuit and configured to switch the flow direction of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit so that the window type air conditioner 100 operates in a cooling mode or a heating mode.

[0056] The outdoor unit 1 also includes a first fan (outdoor fan). The first fan is configured to draw outdoor air into the outdoor unit 1 through a first air inlet of the outdoor unit 1 and to deliver the outdoor air, after heat exchange with the first heat exchanger, through a first air outlet of the outdoor unit 1. The first fan provides power for the flow of outdoor air.

[0057] In some embodiments, the outdoor unit 1 further includes a first housing 11. The first housing 11 includes a first passage (outdoor air passage). A first air inlet and a first air outlet are formed in the first housing 11 and communicate with the first passage.

[0058] For example, the first air outlet is located on a side of the first housing 11 away from the indoor unit 2, so that outdoor air enters the first housing 11 from the first air inlet and is then discharged from the first air outlet.

[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the window air conditioner 100 further includes an indoor unit 2 (i.e., the first portion of the window air conditioner 100 ). The indoor unit 2 is located indoors. The outdoor unit 1 and the indoor unit 2 are integrally formed and connected by a pipeline to transmit refrigerant.

[0060] The indoor unit 2 includes a second heat exchanger 15 (indoor heat exchanger). The second heat exchanger 15 is configured to exchange heat between indoor air and a refrigerant transmitted through the second heat exchanger 15. For example, the second heat exchanger 15 operates as an evaporator in the cooling mode of the window air conditioner 100 and as a condenser in the heating mode of the window air conditioner 100.

[0061] The compressor, the first heat exchanger, the expansion valve and the second heat exchanger 15 connected in sequence form a refrigerant circuit. The refrigerant circulates in the refrigerant circuit and exchanges heat with the air through the second heat exchanger 15 and the first heat exchanger respectively, thereby realizing the cooling mode or heating mode of the window air conditioner 100.

[0062] The indoor unit 2 also includes a second fan 16 (indoor fan). The second fan 16 is configured to draw indoor air into the indoor unit 2 through the second air inlet of the indoor unit 2 and to deliver the indoor air, after heat exchange with the second heat exchanger 15, through the second air outlet of the indoor unit 2. The second fan 16 provides power for the flow of indoor air.

[0063] For example, the first fan and the second fan 16 are cross-flow fans, which can push or draw air along the fan axis, thereby increasing air volume and air pressure. In addition, the user can also adjust the air volume of the window air conditioner 100 by controlling the speed of the first fan and the second fan 16.

[0064] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a second housing 12. A second passage (indoor air passage) is formed within the second housing 12. A second air inlet and a second air outlet (air outlet) are formed in the second housing 12 and communicate with the second passage. The second air outlet is located on a side of the second housing 12 away from the outdoor unit 1, allowing indoor air to enter the second housing 12 through the second air inlet and be discharged into the room through the second air outlet.

[0065] In some embodiments, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are connected. For example, a portion of the second housing 12 passes through a window or a wall to connect with the first housing 11.

[0066] 1 , the window air conditioner 100 further includes a connecting device 3 (connecting bridge portion). The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are spaced apart and connected by the connecting device 3 .

[0067] For example, at least a portion of the connecting device 3 is located in a window or in a wall. Along a first direction A, a first end of the connecting device 3 is connected to the indoor unit 2, and a second end of the connecting device 3 is connected to the outdoor unit 1. As a result, the outdoor unit 1 and the indoor unit 2 are respectively clamped against the wall from both sides, thereby improving the stability of the window air conditioner 100 and enhancing the reliability of the installation of the window air conditioner 100.

[0068] In some embodiments, the connecting device 3 includes a third housing 13 (connecting bridge housing), which is connected to the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 along the first direction A. For example, a first end of the third housing 13 is connected to a side of the first housing 11 facing the second housing 12, and a second end of the third housing 13 is connected to a side of the second housing 12 facing the first housing 11.

[0069] The second housing 12 is movable relative to the third housing 13 along the third direction C (i.e., the first predetermined direction). For example, the second housing 12 and the third housing 13 are slidably connected, so that the second housing 12 can move relative to the third housing 13 along the third direction C to adjust the height of the second air outlet, thereby improving the cooling effect of the window air conditioner 100.

[0070] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2 , the window air conditioner 100 further includes at least one mating component 31 , which (a first locking member) is fixedly connected to the third shell 13 and is located on a side of the third shell 13 facing the second shell 12 .

[0071] The window air conditioner 100 further includes at least one locking assembly 20. The locking assembly 20 is disposed within the second housing 12 and is configured to cooperate with the mating assembly 31 to limit the second housing 12 when the second housing 12 moves upward to the first position and position the air outlet at a predetermined height.

[0072] For example, during the process of the second shell 12 sliding to the first position relative to the third shell 13, the third shell 13 is fixed, and the height of the second shell 12 is increased relative to the height of the third shell 13. In this case, the locking between the second shell 12 and the third shell 13 can be achieved through the locking cooperation of the locking component 20 and the mating component 31, thereby fixing the second shell 12 in the first position.

[0073] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 20 is further configured to disengage from the mating assembly 31 to release the lock between the second housing 12 and the third housing 13, allowing the second housing 12 to slide relative to the third housing 13. For example, when the locking assembly 20 is disengaged from the mating assembly 31, the second housing 12 may move to the second position under the action of gravity.

[0074] It is understandable that during the cooling or heating process of the window air conditioner, the cold gas with high density will sink to the ground (such as moving downward), while the hot gas with low density will rise (moving upward).

[0075] Therefore, when the indoor unit 2 is cooling in summer, the second shell 12 is in the first position through the locking cooperation of the locking component 20 and the matching component 31, so that cold air can be transported from a high place into the room and settle downward, which is beneficial to improving the cooling effect of the window air conditioner.

[0076] Similarly, when the indoor unit 2 is heating in winter, the locking component 20 and the mating component 31 are disengaged, so that the second shell 12 is in the second position, so that hot air can be transported from a low position into the room and rise upward, which is beneficial to improving the heating effect of the window air conditioner.

[0077] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, the locking assembly 20 includes a first locking member 21 (second locking member). The first locking member 21 is configured to engage or disengage with the mating assembly 31. For example, the first locking member 21 and the mating assembly 31 are a pull-out structure.

[0078] The locking assembly 20 further includes a driving member 22. The driving member 22 extends along the third direction C and is positioned above the first locking member 21. The driving member 22 abuts against the first locking member 21 and is configured to drive the first locking member 21 from the third position (locked position) to the fourth position (unlocked position).

[0079] For example, when the first locking member 21 is in the third position, the first locking member 21 and the mating assembly 31 are engaged, and the second housing 12 is fixed relative to the third housing 13. When the locking assembly 20 is in the fourth position, the first locking member 21 is disengaged from the mating assembly 31, so that the second housing 12 can slide relative to the third housing 13.

[0080] For example, the first end of the driving member 22 passes through a side wall (such as the top wall) of the second housing 12 and is located outside the second housing 12, and the second end of the driving member 22 abuts against the first locking member 21. In this way, the user does not need to open the second housing 12. By pressing the driving member 22, the driving member 22 can drive the first locking member 21 to move from the third position to the fourth position, thereby allowing the second housing 12 to move from the first position to the second position relative to the third housing 13.

[0081] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG5 , the first locking member 21 includes a first guide portion 211 (a first guide slope), which is disposed opposite the second end of the driving member 22. For example, the first guide portion 211 is configured as a slope, and the second end of the driving member 22 abuts against the slope. Thus, when the driving member 22 moves toward the first locking member 21, the driving member 22 can apply a force to the slope along the third direction C, thereby causing the first locking member 21 to move horizontally to the fourth position.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first guide portion 211 is arranged opposite to the driving member 22; the driving member 22 abuts against the first guide portion 211; the first guide portion is configured to: move in a horizontal direction under the action of the driving member to move the first locking member 21 to the fourth position.

[0083] In some embodiments, the driving member 22 includes a second guide portion configured to cooperate with the first guide portion 211 , and an angle between the second guide portion and the horizontal plane is the same as an angle between the first guide portion 211 and the horizontal plane.

[0084] In some embodiments, as shown in Fig. 6 , the indoor unit 2 further includes a duct assembly 14. The duct assembly 14 is disposed in the second housing 12 and is configured to fix components such as the second heat exchanger 15, the second fan 16, and the locking assembly 20.

[0085] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5 and 7, the locking assembly 20 further includes a reset member 23. The reset member 23 is disposed between the first locking member 21 and the channel assembly 14 and is configured to apply a force to the first locking member 21 to reset the first locking member 21 when the first locking member 21 is disengaged from the mating assembly. For example, the reset member 23 includes a spring.

[0086] For example, along the second direction B, the first end of the reset member 23 abuts the first locking member 21, and the second end of the reset member 23 abuts the channel assembly 14. The reset member 23 is configured to drive the first locking member 21 from the fourth position to the third position. In this way, the reset member 23 can provide a reset force to the first locking member 21.

[0087] It is understood that when the first locking member 21 is in the third position, the reset member 23 applies a force to the first locking member 21, thereby improving the locking stability between the first locking member 21 and the mating assembly 31. When the first locking member 21 and the mating assembly 31 are disengaged, the reset member 23 releases the reset force, and the first locking member 21 slides from the third position to the fourth position under the reset force of the reset member 23.

[0088] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3 and 5, the first locking member 21 includes a first locking member body 217 and a third guide portion 213. The third guide portion 213 is disposed on a side of the first locking member body 217 that is adjacent to the channel assembly 14 and extends toward the channel assembly 14 (e.g., along the second direction B). The reset member 23 is sleeved on the outside of the third guide portion 213. The first end of the reset member 23 abuts the first locking member body 217, and the second end of the reset member 23 abuts the channel assembly 14.

[0089] It can be understood that the third guide portion 213 can provide a guiding function for the reset member 23 . For example, the reset member 23 can be compressed or released along the extension direction of the third guide portion 213 .

[0090] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3 and 4 , the locking assembly 20 further includes a housing 24 and a cover 25. The housing 24 and the cover 25 are connected to define a receiving chamber, in which the first locking member 21 and the return member 23 are disposed. The first locking member 21 is movable within the receiving chamber. For example, the housing 24 is closer to the third housing 13 than the cover 25.

[0091] For example, a first end of the reset member 23 abuts against the first locking member body 217 , and a second end of the reset member 23 abuts against a side wall of the box body 24 .

[0092] 3 and 4 , the locking assembly 20 further includes a third hole 26 (first guide groove) disposed in the box cover 25 and extending through a side wall of the box body 24. For example, the third hole 26 is disposed in a side wall of the box body 24 adjacent to the third housing 13.

[0093] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3 to 5, the first locking member 21 further includes a first locking portion 212, which is disposed on a side of the first locking member body 217 that is adjacent to the third housing 13. A first end of the first locking portion 212 is connected to the first locking member body 217, and a second end of the first locking member 21 extends through the third hole 26 and toward the third housing 13.

[0094] The first locking portion 212 is movable in the third hole 26 along the second direction B. When the first locking portion 212 moves to the first end of the third hole 26, the first locking member 21 is in the third position; when the first locking portion 212 moves to the second end of the third hole 26, the first locking member 21 is in the fourth position.

[0095] In some embodiments, when the second housing of the indoor unit 2 is in the second position, the first locking portion 212 abuts the mating assembly 31 along the second direction B under the action of the reset member 23, and the first locking portion 212 is located in the fourth position. During the upward movement of the indoor unit 2 from the second position to the first position, the first locking portion 212 moves upward and maintains abutment with the mating assembly 31. When the indoor unit 2 moves to the second position, the first locking portion 21 disengages from the mating assembly 31 and, under the action of the reset member 23, moves along the second direction B above the mating assembly 31, thereby limiting the position of the second housing 12.

[0096] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3 and 5, the first locking member 21 includes a fourth guide portion 216 (a second guide slope). The fourth guide portion 216 is disposed on the side of the first locking member 212 facing the mating assembly 31. The mating assembly 31 includes a mating body 310 and a fifth guide portion 311 (a second guide groove). The fifth guide portion 311 is located on the side of the mating body 310 proximal to the first locking member 21. The fifth guide portion 311 extends along the third direction C. The fourth guide portion 216 is located within the fifth guide portion 311 and is movable relative to the fifth guide portion 311.

[0097] The mating assembly 31 further includes a sixth guide portion 312 (limiting step), which is located above the fifth guide portion 311. A first end of the sixth guide portion 312 is connected to the fifth guide portion 311, and a second end of the sixth guide portion 312 extends upward and away from the mating body 310.

[0098] When the fourth guide portion 216 moves upward along the fifth guide portion 311 to the end of the fifth guide portion 311, the fourth guide portion 216 moves upward and away from the mating body 310 under the guidance of the sixth guide portion 312, so that the first locking member 21 moves from the third position to the fourth position.

[0099] For example, the fourth guide portion 216 is configured as an inclined surface, and the fifth guide portion 311 is configured as a guide groove.

[0100] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG5 , the first locking member 21 further includes a seventh guide portion 214 disposed on a side of the first locking member body 217 away from the third guide portion 213. The box body 24 and the box cover 25 jointly define a fourth hole 27. The seventh guide portion 214 is disposed within the fourth hole 27 and is movable relative to the fourth hole 27. For example, the seventh guide portion 214 can move within the fourth hole 27 in the second direction B, thereby providing enhanced guidance for the movement of the first locking member 21 within the accommodating cavity, thereby facilitating improved stability and reliability of the movement of the first locking member 21.

[0101] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 6 and 7, the locking assembly 20 includes a second locking member 28. The second locking member 28 differs from the first locking member 21 in that the second locking member 28 is configured to move toward a direction approaching the mating component 31 to a fifth position to engage and lock with the mating component 31, and to move away from the mating component 31 in the accommodating cavity to a sixth position to disengage from the mating component 31.

[0102] The first end of the driving member 22 passes through the box cover 25 and abuts against the second locking member 28, and the second end of the driving member 22 extends to the outside of the second housing 12 along the second direction B. The driving member 22 is configured to move along the second direction B to drive the second locking member 28 to move along the first direction A.

[0103] The reset member 23 is disposed between the second locking member 28 and the housing 24 along the second direction B to apply a force to the second locking member 28 toward the driving member 22. For example, the reset member is disposed between the second locking member and the housing along the second direction; the reset member is configured to drive the second locking member from the sixth position to the fifth position.

[0104] The second locking member 28 includes a second locking member body 280 and a second locking portion 281 (locking column). The second locking portion 281 is disposed on a side of the second locking member body 280 facing the mating component 31 and extends toward the mating component 31.

[0105] The mating assembly 31 includes a fixing portion 314. The fixing portion 314 is disposed on the third housing 13 and extends along the third direction C. The fixing portion 314 includes at least two fifth holes 313 (locking holes). The at least two fifth holes 313 are spaced apart along the length of the fixing portion 314 and penetrate the fixing portion 314 along the thickness direction of the fixing portion 314.

[0106] It should be noted that the length direction of the fixing portion 314 corresponds to the height direction (third direction C) of the window air conditioner, and the length direction of the fixing portion 314 corresponds to the front-rear direction (first direction A) of the window air conditioner.

[0107] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG7 , the second locking member 28 further includes an eighth guide portion 282 (second guide slope), which is disposed opposite the second guide portion. For example, the eighth guide portion 282 is configured as an inclined surface, with the end of the eighth guide portion 282 proximal to the driver 22 being further away from the fixed portion 314 than the end of the eighth guide portion 282 distal to the driver 22. Thus, when a user applies a force toward the second locking member 28 (i.e., the eighth guide portion 282) via the driver 22 (i.e., the second guide portion), the second locking member 28 moves in a direction away from the fixed portion 314 under the guidance of the second guide portion and the eighth guide portion 282.

[0108] In addition, the force applied by the reset member 23 to the second locking member 28 will cause the second locking member 28 to move toward the fixing portion 314 , thereby driving the driving member 22 to reset through the second guide portion and the eighth guide portion 282 .

[0109] For example, when the second housing 12 is located at the first position, the second locking portion 281 is located in the upper fifth hole 313 to limit the second housing 12 .

[0110] When the user presses the driving member 22 in the second direction B, the second locking member 28 overcomes the force of the reset member 23 and moves toward the reset member 23, so that the second locking portion 281 is disengaged from the fifth hole 313. In this case, the second locking portion 281 abuts against the fixing portion 314 under the action of the reset member 23, and the second housing 12 can slide downward along the third direction C to the second position.

[0111] When the second housing 12 moves to the second position, the second locking portion 281 moves along the second direction to the fifth hole 313 located below, thereby limiting the second housing 12 to the second position.

[0112] It is understandable that by cooperating with the second locking portion 281 and at least two fifth holes 313, the second shell 12 can be limited at different heights (such as the first position or the second position), which is beneficial to improving the cooling or heating effect of the window air conditioner.

[0113] 8 , the channel assembly 14 includes a channel body 140 and at least one receiving member 40 (receiving groove). The receiving member 40 is configured as a groove, for example.

[0114] For example, the at least one receiving member 40 includes two receiving members 40, which are disposed opposite each other at two ends of the channel body 140 along the second direction B and are recessed toward the center of the channel body 140 to form two receiving cavities. The at least one locking assembly 20 includes two locking assemblies 20, which are disposed in the two receiving members 40, respectively.

[0115] The accommodating member 40 is located below the second fan and is open toward one side of the mating component 31 so that the locking component 20 and the mating component 31 are arranged opposite to each other, thereby facilitating the mating and locking of the locking component 20 and the mating component 31 .

[0116] It is understandable that by fixing the locking assembly 20 in the receiving member 40 , the space of the channel assembly 14 can be utilized, thereby improving the space utilization of the second shell 12 and facilitating the reduction of the volume of the window air conditioner 100 .

[0117] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG6 , the at least one mating component 31 includes two mating components 31 , which are disposed on a side wall of the third housing 13 adjacent to the second housing 12 and adjacent to both sides of the third housing 13 along the second direction B. The two mating components 31 are disposed corresponding to the two locking components 20 , thereby facilitating the locked engagement between the mating components 31 and the locking components 20 and improving the reliability and stability of the engagement between the mating components 31 and the locking components 20 .

[0118] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 6 and 8, a second heat exchanger 15 and a second fan 16 are disposed in the channel assembly 14. The second fan 16 is located at an upper portion of the channel assembly 14. A first portion of the second heat exchanger 15 is located on a side of the second fan 16 away from the third housing 13, and a second portion of the second heat exchanger 15 is located below the second fan 16.

[0119] At least one of the two receiving members 40 protrudes toward the second portion of the second heat exchanger 15 to form a protrusion 41. The protrusion 41 has a sloped surface facing the second heat exchanger 15, and the slope is spaced apart from the second heat exchanger 15. This reduces resistance within the channel assembly 14 and the space occupied by the locking assembly 20 within the second housing 12, thereby improving space utilization within the second housing 12.

[0120] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 7, 9, and 10, the locking assembly 20 further includes two mounting portions 251 (mounting legs). The two mounting portions 251 are respectively disposed on either side of the box cover 25 and extend away from the box cover 25. The locking assembly 20 further includes two sixth holes 252, which are respectively formed in the two mounting portions 251 and penetrate the two mounting portions 251.

[0121] The receiving member 40 includes two seventh holes 44. The two seventh holes 44 correspond to the positions of the two sixth holes 252. In this way, a fastener (such as a screw) is passed through the sixth holes 252 and the corresponding seventh holes 44, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the locking assembly 20 and the receiving member 40.

[0122] In some embodiments, the box body 24 is located between the box cover 25 and the receiving member 40, for example, the box body 24 is located in the receiving member 40. In this way, after the box cover 25 is fixedly connected to the channel assembly 14, the box body 24 can be fixed between the box cover 25 and the receiving member 40, thereby omitting additional fasteners or fixing structures, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the locking assembly 20.

[0123] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7, the second locking member further includes a third guide portion 213. The third guide portion is disposed on a side of the second locking member body away from the second locking portion; the reset member is disposed on the periphery of the third guide portion.

[0124] The box body 24 includes a twelfth hole 242, and the twelfth hole 242 corresponds to the third guide portion 213. When the second locking member is located at the sixth position, the third guide portion is located in the twelfth hole.

[0125] The accommodating member includes a first avoidance portion, which is located at an end of the accommodating member away from the third shell and is open toward the third shell; the first avoidance portion is configured to avoid the third guide portion.

[0126] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG10 , the accommodating member 40 further includes a first avoidance portion 42. The first avoidance portion 42 is, for example, a avoidance groove located at an end of the accommodating member 40 away from the third housing 13 and open toward the third housing 13. The first avoidance portion 42 is configured to avoid the third guide portion 213, thereby facilitating movement of the second locking member 28 between the fifth position and the sixth position.

[0127] For example, when the third guide portion 213 moves into the first avoidance portion 42 , the second locking portion 281 escapes from the fifth hole, so that the second locking member 28 is in the unlocked state, and the second housing 12 can move along the third direction C.

[0128] As the third guide portion 213 moves into the first escape portion 42, the reset member 23 abuts between the second locking member and the housing, accumulating a reset force. When the second locking member 281 moves to a position opposite the fifth hole, the reset member 23 releases the reset force, pushing the third guide portion 213 out of the first escape portion 42 and allowing the second locking member 281 to enter the fifth hole, thereby retaining the second housing 12.

[0129] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG7 , the box body 24 includes at least one first engaging portion 241, which is either a buckle or a slot. The box cover 25 includes at least one second engaging portion 254, which is either a buckle or a slot. The engaging engagement of the slot and the buckle securely connects the box body 24 to the box cover 25.

[0130] It can be understood that the snap connection between the buckle and the slot is simple and quick, which is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the window air conditioner 100.

[0131] For example, referring to Figure 7 , the at least one first engaging portion 241 includes four first engaging portions 241, which are respectively located near the four corners of the box body 24. The at least one second engaging portion 254 includes four second engaging portions 254, which correspond to the positions of the four first engaging portions 241. Thus, the engagement of the four second engaging portions 254 with the four first engaging portions 241 helps to improve the reliability of the connection between the box body and the box cover.

[0132] In some embodiments, the box body 24 further includes a first hole, and the box cover 25 includes a second hole. The first hole and the second hole are penetrated by fasteners (such as screws, etc.), so that the box body 24 and the box cover 25 can be fixedly connected.

[0133] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG10 , the container 40 further includes a plurality of second relief portions 43 , such as a plurality of relief grooves. The plurality of second relief portions 43 open toward the interior of the container 40 and correspond to the positions of the first and second clamping portions 241 and 254 . The second relief portions 43 are configured to avoid the corresponding first and second clamping portions 241 and 254 .

[0134] In this way, during the assembly process, the box body 24 is first placed in the accommodating part 40, the second avoidance portion 43 avoids the second clamping portion 254, and then the box cover 25 is covered on the box body 24, the first clamping portion 241 and the second clamping portion 254 are clamped together, and the first clamping portion 241 and the second clamping portion 254 are located in the second avoidance portion 43.

[0135] In some embodiments, the box cover 25 further includes a first flange portion 253 (limiting flange), which protrudes away from the box body 24 and defines a channel for the movement of the driving member 22. Therefore, the first flange portion 253 can limit the driving member 22 in the radial direction of the driving member 22, which helps to improve the assembly reliability of the locking assembly 20. In addition, the first flange portion 253 can also increase the structural strength of the box cover 25, thereby preventing the box cover 25 from deforming.

[0136] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG11 , the window air conditioner 100 further includes a positioning member 50, which is disposed on a side of the third housing 13 facing the second housing 12 and is fixedly connected to the third housing 13. The mating assembly 31 is fixedly connected to the positioning member 50, so that the mating assembly 31 is fixedly connected to the third housing 13.

[0137] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG12 , the positioning member 50 includes a first positioning member body 51. The mating component 31 is fixedly connected to the first positioning member body 51. The first positioning member body 51 is fixedly connected to the third housing 13. The positioning member 50 also includes a plurality of first positioning portions 52. The plurality of first positioning portions 52 are disposed on the first positioning member body 51 and are configured to position the mating component 31 to prevent the mating component 31 from shifting.

[0138] 12 and 13 , the first positioning portion 52 is configured as a second flange portion 53 (positioning flange), and a plurality of second flange portions 53 are spaced apart and arranged around the circumference of the first positioning member body 51. The mating component 31 is disposed between the plurality of second flange portions 53.

[0139] For example, the first portions of the plurality of second flanges 53 are spaced apart on both sides of the mating component 31 (i.e., the fixing portion 314) in the width direction (second direction B), thereby limiting the position of the mating component 31 in the width direction of the mating component 31. The second portions of the plurality of second flanges 53 are disposed on the lower side of the mating component 31 to limit the position of the mating component 31 in the height direction (third direction C) of the mating component 31. In this way, the plurality of second flanges 53 can limit the position of the mating component 31 in both the width and height directions, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the mating between the mating component 31 and the locking assembly 20.

[0140] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG13 , the positioning member 50 includes at least one eighth hole 54. For example, the at least one eighth hole 54 includes a plurality of eighth holes 54, and the plurality of eighth holes 54 are spaced apart and arranged in the first positioning member body 51 along the third direction C. The mating component 31 includes at least one ninth hole 315, and the at least one ninth hole 315 is arranged in the fixing portion 314 and corresponds to the at least one eighth hole 54. In this way, the eighth hole 54 and the ninth hole 315 are penetrated by a fastener, so that the mating component 31 can be fixedly connected to the positioning member 50.

[0141] For example, the at least one eighth hole 54 includes a plurality of eighth holes 54, and the at least one ninth hole 315 includes a plurality of ninth holes 315. The plurality of eighth holes 54 and the plurality of ninth holes 315 are respectively penetrated by a plurality of fasteners, thereby facilitating improved reliability of the connection between the mating component 31 and the positioning member 50.

[0142] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 , the positioning member 50 further includes a third flange portion 55 (fixed flange), which is disposed on the top of the first positioning member body 51 and extends toward the third shell 13 .

[0143] The positioning member 50 also includes a tenth hole 551. The tenth hole 551 is disposed in the third flange portion 55 and extends through the third flange portion 55 along its thickness. Thus, after a fastener is inserted through the tenth hole 551 and then fixedly connected to the third housing 13, the positioning member 50 is securely connected to the third housing 13. For example, the third flange portion 55 can be located at the top of the third housing 13, or the third flange portion 55 can be located within the third housing 13.

[0144] In some embodiments, the third shell 13 includes an eleventh hole, which corresponds to the position of the tenth hole 551. The second fastener passes through the tenth hole 551 and the eleventh hole and is fixedly connected to the third shell 13, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the positioning member 50 and the third shell 13.

[0145] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 12, 13, and 15, the window air conditioner 100 further includes a sliding assembly 32. The first portion of the sliding assembly 32 is fixed relative to the third housing 13, and the second portion of the sliding assembly 32 is fixed relative to the second housing 12. The second portion of the sliding assembly 32 can slide relative to the first portion in a third direction C, thereby allowing the second housing 12 to slide relative to the third housing 13 in the third direction C. This allows the user to raise or lower the second housing 12 as needed, thereby increasing or decreasing the height of the indoor unit's air outlet, thereby improving the cooling or heating performance of the window air conditioner.

[0146] For example, the first portion of the sliding assembly 32 is fixedly connected to the positioning member 50 , so that the positions of the sliding assembly 32 and the mating assembly 31 are relatively fixed, which is beneficial to improving the position accuracy between the sliding assembly 32 and the mating assembly 31 .

[0147] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 12 and 13, the positioning member 50 further includes a second positioning member body 57, which is disposed on one side in the width direction of the first positioning member body 51 and extends in a direction away from the third housing 13. The first portion of the sliding assembly 32 is fixedly connected to the second positioning member body 57, thereby achieving fixation of the first portion of the sliding assembly 32 relative to the third housing 13.

[0148] In some embodiments, the first positioning member body 51 and the second positioning member body 57 are an integral piece, and the second positioning member body 57 is bent relative to the first positioning member body 51 , which is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the positioning member 50 .

[0149] In some embodiments, the first positioning member body 51 and the second positioning member body 57 are separate parts, and the first positioning member body 51 and the second positioning member body 57 are fixedly connected by fasteners. In this way, when one of the first positioning member body 51 and the second positioning member body 57 is damaged, it is convenient to replace the damaged part.

[0150] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 15, the sliding assembly 32 includes a first sliding member 321 (i.e., a first portion) and a second sliding member 322 (i.e., a second portion). The first sliding member 321 is fixedly connected to the second positioning member body 57, and the second sliding member 322 is fixedly connected to the second housing 12. The second sliding member 322 is slidably connected to the first sliding member 321. The second sliding member 322 is configured to slide along the length direction (third direction C) of the first sliding member 321 to enable the second housing 12 to move relative to the third housing 13 along the third direction C.

[0151] In some embodiments, the sliding assembly 32 also includes a third sliding member 323, which is slidably connected to the first sliding member 321 and the second sliding member 322 respectively, so that the second sliding member 322 can slide relative to the first sliding member 321, and is conducive to improving the smoothness and stability of the sliding between the second sliding member 322 and the first sliding member 321.

[0152] For example, the first sliding member 321 is a sliding rail or a sliding groove, and the surface of the third sliding member 323 facing the first sliding member 321 is configured as the other of the sliding rail or the sliding groove. The sliding rail cooperates with the sliding groove and is slidable in the sliding groove.

[0153] For example, the second sliding member 322 is a slide rail or a slide groove, and the surface of the third sliding member 323 facing the second sliding member 322 is configured as the other of the slide rail or the slide groove. The slide rail cooperates with the slide groove and is slidable in the slide groove.

[0154] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG13 , the positioning member 50 further includes a fourth flange portion 56 (support flange), which is disposed at the lower end of the second positioning member body 57 and is bent relative to the second positioning member body 57. The fourth flange portion 56 is perpendicular to the second positioning member body 57 and is configured to support and position the second sliding member 322, thereby improving the accuracy of the installation position of the second sliding member 322.

[0155] In some embodiments, the window air conditioner 100 further includes a protective member 60, which is sleeved on the lower end of the second sliding member 322. For example, the protective member 60 wraps the lower end of the second sliding member 322 to protect the second sliding member 322 and facilitate operation.

[0156] In some embodiments, the second housing 12 is made of plastic, which helps reduce the weight of the second housing 12 and facilitates the user to lift the indoor unit 2. In addition, the manufacturing process of plastic parts is simple, which helps improve production efficiency.
