[0044] Window air conditioners are typically equipped with mounting brackets during installation. These brackets help elevate the exterior of the unit to level with the interior of the room. However, existing mounting brackets are generally bulky, expensive to produce and transport, and are exposed to the exterior of the unit, making them unsightly.

[0045] 1 , 2 and 3 , according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a mounting bracket 100 for a window air conditioner 200 is provided. The mounting bracket 100 is configured to be placed on a windowsill and is configured to support the window air conditioner 200.

[0046] It should be noted that window air conditioners 200 are typically installed near a window, with one portion located indoors and one portion located outdoors. The window sill is typically provided with a window frame, and there is a height difference between the window frame and the window sill, making it not a flat surface. Directly installing the window air conditioner 200 will result in the indoor and outdoor portions of the window air conditioner 200 not being on the same level, making it extremely unstable and prone to shaking. Mounting the mounting bracket 100 on the window sill and placing the window air conditioner 200 on the mounting bracket 100 can keep the window air conditioner 200 level and stable, reducing vibration and noise generated during operation and improving the comfort of the living environment.

[0047] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, there can be at least two mounting brackets 100. At least two mounting brackets 100 can be arranged on the windowsill at intervals. At least two mounting brackets 100 can be arranged at intervals in the left and right directions of the window air conditioner 200. Since the window air conditioner 200 is heavy, deformation or damage of the window sill can be avoided by providing at least two mounting brackets 100 to support the window air conditioner 200. The two mounting brackets 100 arranged at intervals on the left and right increase the supporting area of ​​the mounting bracket 100 for the window air conditioner 200, can more evenly distribute the weight of the window air conditioner 200, reduce the local pressure caused by the window air conditioner 200 on the window sill structure, improve the stability and safety of the installation, and reduce the vibration and noise generated by the window air conditioner 200 during operation, thereby helping to improve the comfort of the living environment.

[0048] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the number of mounting brackets 100 may be three, four, or more, depending on the weight of the window air conditioner 200 and the specific conditions of the installation environment. The heavier the window air conditioner 200 or the more unstable the installation environment, the more mounting brackets 100 are required.

[0049] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6, the mounting bracket 100 may include a support member 110. The support member 110 may extend in the front-to-rear direction of the window air conditioner 200. The support member 110 and the window air conditioner 200 are fixedly connected. The bottom surface of the window air conditioner 200 may be supported on the top surface of the support member 110.

[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5, 7, and 8, the mounting bracket 100 may include a base 120. The base 120 may be disposed on a windowsill. The base 120 may cooperate with the support member 110, and the support member 110 may be supported on the windowsill by the base 120.

[0051] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8, 9, and 10, the mounting bracket 100 may include an adjustment member 130. The adjustment member 130 is used to adjust the distance between the support member 110 and the base 120. The lower end of the adjustment member 130 may be fixedly connected to the base 120. The adjustment member 130 may be provided with a first adjustment portion 131. The support member 110 may be provided with a second adjustment portion 111. The first adjustment portion 131 may cooperate with the second adjustment portion 111 and is used to adjust the distance between the support member 110 and the bottom surface of the window sill.

[0052] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 6, 7, and 8, the support member 110 is a component that can be fixed to the bottom of the window air conditioner 200. The support member 110 can be a plate-like structure. It extends in the front-to-back direction of the window air conditioner 200. The surface of the support member 110 that contacts the bottom of the window air conditioner 200 is flat, and the support member 110 conforms to the bottom surface of the window air conditioner 200 to ensure stable support for the window air conditioner 200 and reduce shaking of the window air conditioner 200.

[0053] In some embodiments, the support member 110 may be a sheet metal member, which is simple to form and has high strength, thereby improving the structural strength of the support member 110 .

[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, the front-to-back dimensions of the support member 110 can be smaller than those of the window air conditioner 200. In other words, the front-to-back dimensions of the support member 110 are smaller than those of the window air conditioner 200. This allows for a more compact mounting bracket 100 and prevents the support member 110 from protruding from the window air conditioner 200 in the front-to-back direction, thereby preventing the support member 110 from scratching the user.

[0055] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8, 9, and 10, the base 120 can be a cylindrical structure. By placing the cylindrical base 120 on the windowsill, stable support can be provided for the support member 110 and the window air conditioner 200. The cylindrical base 120 has a large contact area with the windowsill, and the support area of ​​the cylindrical base 120 is continuous and uniform, which can reduce the risk of deformation or damage to the windowsill caused by excessive local pressure. The cylindrical base 120 has a simple structure, which facilitates subsequent cleaning and maintenance, helping to extend the service life of the mounting bracket 100.

[0056] In some embodiments, the base 120 may be made of plastic, such as PC, ABS, etc.

[0057] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8, 9, and 10, an adjustment member 130 can be disposed between the base 120 and the support member 110. The lower end of the adjustment member 130 can be fixedly connected to the base 120. The lower end of the adjustment member 130 can be movably connected to the second adjustment portion 111 of the support member 110 via a first adjustment portion 131. The first adjustment portion 131 on the adjustment member 130 and the second adjustment portion 111 on the support member 110 cooperate to adjust the distance between the support member 110 and the base 120, thereby adjusting the distance between the window air conditioner 200 and the windowsill. Furthermore, the adjustment member 130 can be used to raise the bottom of the window air conditioner 200 to a position flush with the window frame. This allows the indoor and outdoor portions of the window air conditioner 200 to be on the same horizontal plane, allowing for a secure installation on the window. This reduces vibration and noise generated during operation, thereby improving the comfort of the living environment.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8, 9, and 10, the adjusting member 130 can be a screw. The first adjusting portion 131 can be a threaded structure. The second adjusting portion 111 can be a screw hole, and the inner wall of the screw hole is provided with threads. The first adjusting portion 131 and the second adjusting portion 111 can be matched with each other by threads. By rotating the base 120, the base 120 drives the adjusting member 130 to rotate. The rotation of the threads between the first adjusting portion 131 and the second adjusting portion 111 will produce a spiral upward or downward movement, thereby driving the support member 110 to move up and down, thereby achieving adjustment of the height of the window air conditioner 200.

[0059] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 100 has a streamlined overall structure, is short in length, and occupies a small area, resulting in low production and transportation costs and convenient storage. Furthermore, the mounting bracket 100 is located entirely below the window air conditioner 200, making it relatively concealed and making the installed window air conditioner 200 more aesthetically pleasing and concise.

[0060] Therefore, by setting a short mounting bracket 100, the height of the window air conditioner 200 can be adjusted at a lower cost, so that the window air conditioner 200 can be firmly installed on the window, reducing the vibration and noise generated during operation, and improving the comfort of the living environment. The window air conditioner 200 installed using the mounting bracket 100 is more beautiful and simple.

[0061] 8 , 9 , and 10 , the base 120 may include a first base body 121 . The adjustment member 130 may be disposed on the first base body 121 .

[0062] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8, 9, and 10, the base 120 may include a second base 122. The second base 122 and the first base 121 may interlock. The second base 122 may be placed on a windowsill. The base 120 may be composed of two parts, the first base 121 and the second base 122. The first base 121 may be located above the second base 122 and partially located within the second base 122. The first base 121 and the second base 122 interlock to form a stable structure, thereby supporting the weight of the support member 110 and the window air conditioner 200.

[0063] When the base 120 rotates, the support member 110 and the adjustment member 130 have relative movement. Since the adjustment member 130 is fixed on the first base body 121, the first base body 121 and the second base body 122 are buckled, and the second base body 122 is set on the windowsill, the second base body 122 is fixed on the windowsill under the action of the gravity of the window air conditioner 200 above, so the support member 110 moves up and down, and the distance between the support member 110 and the base 120 changes, thereby achieving the function of adjusting the height of the window air conditioner 200.

[0064] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 9, 10, and 11, a first stopper 1211 may be provided on the outer periphery of the first base 121. A second stopper 1221 may be provided on the inner wall of the second base 122. The first stopper 1211 and the second stopper 1221 cooperate to limit the engagement of the second base 122 and the first base 121, thereby preventing the first base 121 from moving relative to the second base 122 in the circumferential direction.

[0065] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 9, 10, and 11, the first limiting portion 1211 can be a raised portion located on the outer periphery of the first base 121. The second limiting portion 1221 can be a recessed portion located on the inner wall of the second base 122. The raised portion and the recessed portion correspond to each other. When the first base 121 and the second base 122 are fastened together, the raised portion can be embedded in the recessed portion, so that both sides of the raised portion are blocked. In this way, the first base 121 cannot move relative to the second base 122 in the circumferential direction. When the operator rotates the second base 22, the first base 21 can rotate with the second base 22, thereby driving the adjustment member 130 to rotate relative to the support member 110, thereby adjusting the height of the window air conditioner 200.

[0066] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 9, 10, and 11, a receiving groove 1212 may be provided on the side of the first base 121 facing the second base 122. A third position-limiting portion 1222 may be provided on the bottom wall of the second base 122. The third position-limiting portion 1222 may be a boss structure protruding from the bottom wall of the second base 122. The third position-limiting portion 1222 may be engaged with the receiving groove 1212. The lower end of the adjusting member 130 may abut against the third position-limiting portion 1222.

[0067] For example, a receiving groove 1212 is provided below the first base 121 to accommodate the third limiting portion 1222 of the second base 122. The third limiting portion 1222 of the second base 122 can be located in the middle of the bottom wall of the second base 122, with the edge of the bottom wall of the second base 122 leaving a margin equal to the thickness of the side wall of the first base 121. When the first and second bases 121 and 122 are engaged with each other, the side wall of the first base 121 can be inserted into the edge of the bottom wall of the second base 122, thereby limiting the relative position of the first and second bases 121 and 122, ensuring a tight engagement of the first and second bases 121 and improving the reliability of the mounting bracket 100.

[0068] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 12 , the dimension of the support member 110 in the left-right direction of the window air conditioner 200 can be h1. The dimension of the base 120 in the left-right direction of the window air conditioner 200 can be h2. h2 and h1 can satisfy the relationship: h2>h1. Thus, the dimension of the base 120 in the left-right direction of the window air conditioner 200 is greater than the dimension of the support member 110 in the left-right direction of the window air conditioner 200. In other words, the width of the base 120 is greater than the maximum width of the support member 110. This allows the base 120 to protrude from both sides of the support member 110 in the left-right direction of the window air conditioner 200. When installing the mounting bracket 100, the operator can access the portion of the base 120 exposed outside the support member 110, improving the ease and operability of the mounting bracket 100.

[0069] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 8 and 12, the support member 110 may include multiple second adjustment portions 111. The multiple second adjustment portions 111 may be spaced apart along the front-to-back direction of the window air conditioner 200. The first adjustment portion 131 may be coupled to any one of the second adjustment portions 111. For example, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the support member 110 may include four second adjustment portions 111.

[0070] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the support member 110 may include two, three, five, or more second adjustment portions 111. By providing multiple second adjustment portions 111, the positions of different second adjustment portions 111 vary, resulting in different adjustment effects on the window air conditioner 200. The first adjustment portion 131 can be selectively coupled to any second adjustment portion 111 depending on the installation situation of the window air conditioner 200, thereby improving the practicality of the mounting bracket 100 and providing greater operational flexibility.

[0071] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 6, 7 and 8, a relief groove 112 is provided on the upper surface of the support member 110. One or more second adjustment portions 111 may be provided in the relief groove 112. The upper end of the adjustment member 130 may not exceed the upper end of the relief groove 112. The position of the second adjustment portion 111 may be lower than the contact surface between the support member 110 and the bottom surface of the window air conditioner 200. By providing the relief groove 112, space can be left between the second adjustment portion 111 and the bottom of the window air conditioner 200 to prevent the adjustment member 130 from touching the bottom of the window air conditioner 200 due to exceeding the upper end of the relief groove 112, thereby avoiding the uneven contact surface between the window air conditioner 200 and the support member 110, which affects the stability of the installation.

[0072] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 6, 7, and 8, the support member 110 may include a support portion 113. The support portion 113 may be coupled to the adjustment member 130. The second adjustment portion 111 on the support portion 113 may be coupled to the adjustment member 130 to adjust the height of the window air conditioner 200.

[0073] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5, 6, 7, and 8, the support member 110 may include a fixing portion 114. The fixing portion 114 may be spaced apart from the support portion 113 in the front-to-back direction of the window air conditioner 200. The fixing portion 114 may be fixedly connected to the window air conditioner 200, and the fixing portion 114 may be fixedly connected to the window frame. The fixing portion 114 is configured to be fixedly connected to the bottom of the window air conditioner 200 and the window frame, thereby securing the mounting bracket 100, the window air conditioner 200, and the window frame together, thereby enhancing the stability of the installation.

[0074] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5, 6, 7, and 8, the front end portion of the support member 110 in the front-to-back direction of the window air conditioner 200 may be a fixing portion 114, and the rear end portion of the support member 110 may be a supporting portion 113. The fixing portion 114 may be connected to the front end of the supporting portion 113. The second adjusting portion 111 of the supporting portion 113 and the adjusting member 130 may be fixed portion 114.

[0075] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5, 6, 7, and 8, the fixing portion 114 may be provided with a first mounting portion 1141. The first mounting portion 1141 may be used for fixed connection to the window air conditioner 200. For example, the first mounting portion 1141 may be a mounting hole. The first mounting portion 1141 and the window air conditioner 200 may be connected via bolts. There may be multiple first mounting portions 1141, and the multiple first mounting portions 1141 may be spaced apart on the fixing portion 114 to ensure a secure connection between the support member 110 and the window air conditioner 200.

[0076] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8, the fixing portion 114 may be provided with a mounting flange 1142 that is folded toward the lower side. The mounting flange 1142 may be provided at one end of the fixing portion 114 away from the supporting portion 113. A second mounting portion 1143 may be provided on the mounting flange 1142. The second mounting portion 1143 may be used for fixed connection to the window frame. The mounting flange 1142 may correspond to the position of the window frame. The second mounting portion 1143 on the mounting flange 1142 may be a mounting hole, and the second mounting portion 1143 and the window frame may be connected by bolts. At least two second mounting portions 1143 may be provided, and at least two second mounting portions 1143 may ensure that the support member 110 and the window frame are firmly connected.

[0077] According to another aspect, as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 6, some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a window air conditioner assembly, which may include a window air conditioner 200 and a mounting bracket 100. The window air conditioner 200 may be carried on the mounting bracket 100. The mounting bracket 100 may be set on a windowsill. The window air conditioner 200 may be supported on the window frame and the mounting bracket 100 at the same time. By providing a short mounting bracket 100, the height of the window air conditioner 200 may be adjusted at a lower cost, so that the window air conditioner 200 can be stably installed on the window, reducing vibration and noise generated during operation, improving the comfort of the living environment, and the window air conditioner 200 installed using the mounting bracket 100 is more beautiful and concise.

[0078] 1 and 2 , a window air conditioner 200 includes an indoor unit 201 and an outdoor unit 202. The indoor unit 201 and the outdoor unit 202 may be connected by a pipeline to transmit refrigerant.

[0079] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 201 may include an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan.

[0080] In some embodiments, outdoor unit 202 may include a compressor, a four-way valve, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, and an expansion valve. The compressor, outdoor heat exchanger, expansion valve, and indoor heat exchanger are sequentially connected to form a refrigerant circuit. Refrigerant circulates within the refrigerant circuit, exchanging heat with indoor and outdoor air through the outdoor and indoor heat exchangers, respectively, to achieve cooling or heating mode for window air conditioner 200.

[0081] In some embodiments, the outdoor heat exchanger can be configured to exchange heat between outdoor air and the refrigerant transported through the outdoor heat exchanger. For example, when the window air conditioner 200 is in cooling mode, the outdoor heat exchanger operates as a condenser, causing the refrigerant compressed by the compressor to condense by dissipating heat to the outdoor air through the outdoor heat exchanger. When the window air conditioner 200 is in heating mode, the outdoor heat exchanger operates as an evaporator, causing the decompressed refrigerant to absorb heat from the outdoor air through the outdoor heat exchanger and evaporate.

[0082] In some embodiments, the outdoor fan can be configured to draw outdoor air into the outdoor unit 202 through the outdoor air inlet of the outdoor unit 202, and send the outdoor air after heat exchange with the outdoor heat exchanger out through the outdoor air outlet of the outdoor unit 202. The outdoor fan provides power for the flow of outdoor air.

[0083] In some embodiments, the indoor heat exchanger can be configured to exchange heat between indoor air and the refrigerant transported through the indoor heat exchanger. For example, when the window air conditioner 200 is in cooling mode, the indoor heat exchanger operates as an evaporator, causing the refrigerant, after dissipating heat through the outdoor heat exchanger, to evaporate by absorbing heat from the indoor air through the indoor heat exchanger. When the window air conditioner 200 is in heating mode, the indoor heat exchanger operates as a condenser, causing the refrigerant, after absorbing heat through the outdoor heat exchanger, to condense by dissipating heat to the indoor air through the indoor heat exchanger.

[0084] In some embodiments, when the window air conditioner 200 is cooling, the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger, which is a condenser. The outdoor air entering from the outdoor air inlet flows to the outdoor heat exchanger, where the refrigerant releases a large amount of heat; the outdoor air absorbs the heat of the refrigerant.

[0085] In some embodiments, when the window air conditioner 200 is heating, the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the indoor heat exchanger, the outdoor heat exchanger is an evaporator, and the refrigerant releases heat at the indoor heat exchanger and flows to the outdoor heat exchanger. The outdoor air entering from the outdoor air inlet flows to the outdoor heat exchanger, and the refrigerant absorbs heat from the outdoor heat exchanger.

[0086] In some embodiments, the indoor fan can be configured to draw indoor air into the indoor unit 201 through the third air inlet of the indoor unit 201, and send the indoor air after heat exchange with the indoor heat exchanger out through the fourth air outlet of the indoor unit 201. The indoor fan provides power for the flow of indoor air.

[0087] In some embodiments, the window air conditioner 200 may include a control device. The control device may be configured to control the operating frequency of the compressor, the opening of the expansion valve, the speed of the outdoor fan, and the speed of the indoor fan. The control device may be connected to the compressor, the expansion valve, the outdoor fan, and the indoor fan via a data cable to transmit communication information.

[0088] According to yet another aspect, as shown in Figures 13 and 14 , some embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a window air conditioner 200. The window air conditioner 200 may include a chassis 210. The chassis 210 may provide an installation space for the window air conditioner 200.

[0089] 1 , 13 , and 14 , a window air conditioner 200 may include an indoor housing 20. The indoor housing 20 may be disposed on a chassis 210. The indoor housing 20 may be located in front of the chassis 210. The indoor housing 20 may be located indoors.

[0090] 2 , 13 , and 14 , the window air conditioner 200 may include an outdoor housing 30. The outdoor housing 30 is disposed on a chassis 210. The outdoor housing 30 may be located behind the chassis 210. The outdoor housing 30 may be located outdoors.

[0091] 13 and 14 , the window air conditioner 200 may include an indoor heat exchanger 24. The indoor heat exchanger 24 may be used to exchange heat with indoor air.

[0092] 13 and 14 , the window air conditioner 200 may include an indoor fan assembly 25. The indoor fan assembly 25 transports indoor air to the indoor heat exchanger 24 for heat exchange and then outputs the indoor air, thereby adjusting the indoor temperature.

[0093] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 14 , the indoor housing 20 can be used to house an indoor heat exchanger 24 and an indoor fan assembly 25. An indoor cavity 23 can be formed between the indoor housing 20 and the base 210. The indoor cavity 23 houses the indoor heat exchanger 24 and the indoor fan assembly 25. This provides mounting space for the indoor heat exchanger 24 and the indoor fan assembly 25 and facilitates the formation of an indoor air duct, thereby facilitating heat exchange and air supply within the room.

[0094] In addition, the indoor heat exchanger 24 is arranged in the indoor cavity 23. The indoor cavity 23 not only protects the indoor heat exchanger 24, but also prevents dust from falling into the indoor heat exchanger 24, affecting the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger, and also prevents the indoor heat exchanger 24 from being damaged by external forces.

[0095] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 , the indoor fan assembly 25 is disposed in the indoor cavity 23 , and the indoor fan assembly 25 may be located above the indoor heat exchanger 24 .

[0096] In some embodiments, the indoor fan assembly 25 may include an axial flow fan. The axial flow fan can draw air in, pass it through the indoor heat exchanger 24 for heat exchange, and then deliver it out, thereby regulating the indoor temperature. The axial flow fan has efficient air flow characteristics and can effectively promote air flow, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the window air conditioner 200.

[0097] 13 and 14 , the window air conditioner 200 may include an outdoor heat exchanger 32. The outdoor heat exchanger 32 may be configured to exchange heat with outdoor air.

[0098] 13 and 14 , the window air conditioner 200 may include an outdoor fan assembly 33. The outdoor fan assembly 33 may transport outdoor air to the outdoor heat exchanger 32 for heat exchange and then output the air to the outside, thereby adjusting the outdoor temperature.

[0099] In some embodiments, the outdoor fan assembly 33 includes a motor and an outdoor fan. The motor drives the outdoor fan to rotate, which can transport the outdoor air to the outdoor heat exchanger 32 for heat exchange and then output it to the outdoors, thereby adjusting the outdoor temperature.

[0100] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 14 , the outdoor housing 30 can be used to house an outdoor heat exchanger 32 and an outdoor fan assembly 33. An outdoor cavity 31 can be formed between the outdoor housing 30, the indoor housing 20, and the chassis 210. The outdoor heat exchanger 32 is disposed in the outdoor cavity 31, and the outdoor fan assembly 33 is disposed in the outdoor cavity 31. The outdoor cavity 31 provides installation space for the outdoor heat exchanger 32 and the outdoor fan assembly 33.

[0101] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 14 , the outdoor housing 30 can be spaced relative to the indoor housing 20, thereby adjusting the distance between the outdoor chamber 31 and the outdoor chamber 31 in the front-to-back direction. The chassis 210 corresponding to the outdoor housing 30 can provide mounting and support for the outdoor heat exchanger 32 and the outdoor fan assembly 33.

[0102] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 14, 16, and 18, the window air conditioner 200 may include a water pan 40. The water pan 40 may be disposed within the interior cavity 23. The water pan 40 may be located below the indoor heat exchanger 24. This allows the water pan 40 to collect condensed water from the indoor heat exchanger 24, thereby preventing it from flowing out and improving the safety of the internal circuitry of the window air conditioner 200.

[0103] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 16, 17, 18, and 19, the water receiving pan 40 may have a drainage channel 41 extending to the outdoor chamber 31. The provision of the drainage channel 41 not only serves to collect condensed water but also serves to drain water, thereby allowing condensed water generated by the indoor heat exchanger 24 to flow to the outdoor chamber 31 through the drainage channel 41 on the water receiving pan 40.

[0104] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 18, the indoor housing 20 may include a front housing 21. The front housing 21 is disposed on a chassis 210. The front housing 21 may be provided with an indoor air inlet 211 and an indoor air outlet 212. The indoor air inlet 211 and the indoor air outlet 212 are each connected to the indoor cavity 23. This facilitates indoor air to enter the indoor cavity 23 through the indoor air inlet 211, exchange heat with the indoor heat exchanger 24, and then flow out of the indoor air outlet 212, thereby regulating the indoor temperature.

[0105] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 18, the indoor housing 20 may include a rear housing 22. The rear housing 22 may be disposed on a chassis 210. The rear housing 22 may be connected to the front housing 21, thereby forming an indoor cavity 23 between the rear housing 22 and the front housing 21.

[0106] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 18, 24, 25, and 26, an outdoor fan assembly 33 may be disposed within the outdoor chamber 31. The motor and outdoor fan in the outdoor fan assembly 33 generate noise during operation. A compressor 34 may be disposed within the outdoor chamber 31. The compressor 34 also generates noise during operation. The noise generated by the outdoor fan assembly 33 and the compressor 34 can be transmitted through the air. The rear housing 22 can separate the outdoor chamber 31 from the indoor chamber 23, thereby providing sound insulation.

[0107] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 18, 24, 25, and 26, the rear housing 22 may be formed with a relief hole 221. A portion of the drainage channel 41 in the water receiving tray 40 may extend through the relief hole 221 into the outdoor cavity 31. This allows some of the noise generated in the outdoor cavity 31 to be directly transmitted to the indoor cavity 23 through the gap between the drainage channel 41 in the water receiving tray 40 and the relief hole 221.

[0108] 14 and 18 , the rear housing 22 may be provided with a first soundproofing structure 50 near the drainage channel 41. The first soundproofing structure 50 may prevent noise generated by the outdoor chamber 31 from being transmitted to the indoor chamber 23 through the drainage channel 41.

[0109] In some embodiments, sound insulation cotton may be provided on the rear housing 22 of the indoor housing 20. The sound insulation cotton may further play a role in sound insulation, thereby further playing a role in noise reduction.

[0110] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15, 16, and 17, a first sound insulation structure 50 may be provided on the side of the rear housing 22 facing the outdoor cavity 31. The first sound insulation structure 50 may cover a portion of the drainage channel 41. A portion of the drainage channel 41 includes a water outlet 90. The first sound insulation structure 50 may cover the drainage channel 41 including the water outlet 90.

[0111] When noise from the outdoor cavity 31 is transmitted to the drainage channel 41, it propagates through the air as sound waves. When the noise encounters the first sound insulation structure 50, it is reflected back, preventing the noise from the outdoor cavity 31 from being transmitted to the indoor cavity 23. This reduces the noise transmitted to the drainage channel 41 and improves the sound insulation in the drainage channel 41.

[0112] Therefore, the first sound insulation structure 50 in the window air conditioner 200 can reflect the noise generated by the compressor 34 and the outdoor fan assembly 33 in the outdoor cavity 31 back through the obstruction of the first sound insulation structure 50, thereby preventing the noise in the outdoor cavity 31 from being transmitted to the indoor cavity 23, thereby reducing the noise transmitted to the drainage channel 41 and improving the sound insulation at the drainage channel 41.

[0113] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 15 and 17 , the first sound insulation structure 50 can be configured as a bottom-open soundproof cover. The soundproof cover can act as a wrap, enclosing the portion of the drainage channel 41 containing the water outlet 90, thereby preventing noise from entering from different directions outside the soundproof cover. Furthermore, the bottom opening of the soundproof cover facilitates drainage, preventing condensation from being blocked and thus preventing its accumulation.

[0114] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 17 and 19 , a first soundproof cavity 54 communicating with the avoidance hole 221 can be formed within the first soundproof structure 50. This first soundproof cavity 54 can absorb energy and reduce noise. A portion of the drainage channel 41 is located within the first soundproof cavity 54, effectively preventing noise from entering the indoor cavity 23 through the drainage channel 41. Within the first soundproof cavity 54, noise is reflected multiple times, thereby reducing noise transmission.

[0115] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 25 , the first sound insulation structure 50 may include a top plate 51. The top plate 51 may be connected to the rear housing 22. The top plate 51 is connected to the rear housing 22 in a transverse direction, i.e., in a front-to-back direction. The top plate 51 may be located at the top of the first sound insulation cavity 54.

[0116] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 25 , the first sound insulation structure 50 may include a first side panel 52. Two first side panels 52 may be provided. The two first side panels 52 may be vertically connected to opposite sides of the top panel 51, with the vertical direction being the up-down direction. The two first side panels 52 are respectively connected to the rear housing 22. The two first side panels 52 may be located on the left and right sides of the first sound insulation cavity 54, respectively.

[0117] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 25 , the first sound insulation structure 50 may include a rear panel 53. The rear panel 53 may be connected to the top panel 51 and the first side panel 52, respectively. Together, the top panel 51, the two first side panels 52, and the rear panel 53 may form a first sound insulation cavity 54. A portion of the drainage channel 41 containing the water outlet 90 may be located within the first sound insulation cavity 54, preventing noise from the outdoor cavity 31 from entering the indoor cavity 23 through the drainage channel 41 containing the water outlet 90.

[0118] It should be noted that the noise from the outdoor cavity 31 first passes through the rear panel 53, which initially reflects most of the noise from the outdoor cavity 31. The portion of noise that passes through the rear panel 53 then reflects multiple times within the first soundproof cavity 54 via the top panel 51 and the two first side panels 52, further attenuating the noise. This further reduces the noise transmitted into the first soundproof cavity 54.

[0119] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 17 , the rear panel 53 can be positioned opposite the avoidance hole 221. A portion of the drainage channel 41 passes through the avoidance hole 221 and enters the first sound insulation cavity 54. By positioning the rear panel 53 opposite the avoidance hole 221, the rear panel 53 and a portion of the drainage channel 41 are accurately positioned, thereby preventing interference between the portion of the drainage channel 41 containing the water outlet 90 and the rear panel 53.

[0120] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 17 , the portion of the chassis 210 corresponding to the outdoor chamber 31 is formed with a water storage tank 80 and a water diversion channel 70, which are connected to each other. A portion of the drainage channel 41 can be connected to the water diversion channel 70. The water outlet 90 of the drainage channel 41 can be connected to the water storage tank 80 through the water diversion channel 70. In this way, condensed water generated by the indoor heat exchanger 24 can flow through the water outlet 90 of the drainage channel 41 to the water diversion channel 70. The water diversion channel 70 can serve as a guide, thereby accurately draining the condensed water into the water storage tank 80.

[0121] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 15 and 17 , two first side panels 52 can be located on either side of the width of the water diversion channel 70. Two first side panels 52 can be provided, with the two first side panels 52 positioned opposite each other. One first side panel 52 is located on one side of the width of the water diversion channel 70, while the other first side panel 52 is located on the other side of the width of the water diversion channel 70. In this way, the two first side panels 52 and the top panel 51 can cover a portion of the drainage channel 41, thereby preventing noise from the outdoor cavity 31 from entering the first sound insulation cavity 54 from various directions around the first sound insulation structure 50.

[0122] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 17, the lower edge of the first sound insulation structure 50 contacts the upper surface of the chassis 210. The upper surface of the chassis 210 is the surface of the chassis 210 away from the water diversion channel 70, and the lower edge of the sound insulation cover is tightly attached to the upper surface of the chassis 210.

[0123] For example, the bottoms of the two first side panels 52 are in close contact with the upper surface of the chassis 210, which can prevent the formation of a gap between the bottoms of the first side panels 52 and the upper surface of the chassis 210, thereby preventing the noise of the outdoor cavity 31 from being transmitted to the first sound insulation cavity 54 from the gap between the first side panels 52 and the upper surface of the chassis 210.

[0124] In addition, the bottom of the rear panel 53 is in close contact with the upper surface of the chassis 210, which can also prevent the formation of a gap between the bottom of the rear panel 53 and the upper surface of the chassis 210, thereby preventing the noise of the outdoor cavity 31 from being transmitted to the first sound insulation cavity 54 through the gap between the rear panel 53 and the upper surface of the chassis 210.

[0125] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a window air conditioner 200 may include a chassis 210, an indoor housing 20, an outdoor housing 30, and a drain pan 40. The indoor housing 20 is mounted on the chassis 210, and the indoor housing 20 and the chassis 210 form an indoor chamber 23. An indoor heat exchanger 24 is disposed within the indoor chamber 23. The outdoor housing 30 is mounted on the chassis 210, and the outdoor housing 30, the indoor housing 20, and the chassis 210 together form an outdoor chamber 31. The drain pan 40 is disposed within the indoor chamber 23 and below the indoor heat exchanger 24. The drain pan 40 has a drainage channel 41 extending into the outdoor chamber 31. The indoor housing 20 includes a front housing 21 and a rear housing 22. The front housing 21 is provided with an indoor air inlet 211 and an indoor air outlet 212. The rear housing 22 is mounted above the chassis 210 and connected to the front housing 21. The rear housing 22 has a relief hole 221. A portion of the drainage channel 41 extends to the outdoor cavity 31 through the avoidance hole 221. A first sound insulation structure 50 is provided on one side of the rear housing 22 facing the outdoor cavity 31. The first sound insulation structure 50 covers a portion of the drainage channel 41.

[0126] Therefore, the first sound insulation structure 50 in the window air conditioner 200 can reflect the noise generated by the compressor 34 and the outdoor fan assembly 25 in the outdoor cavity 31 back through blocking, thereby preventing the noise in the outdoor cavity 31 from being transmitted to the indoor cavity 23, thereby reducing the noise transmitted to the drainage channel 41 and improving the sound insulation at the drainage channel 41.

[0127] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20 and 21, a second sound insulation structure 60 may be provided on the water receiving tray 40. The second sound insulation structure 60 may be located in the indoor cavity 23. The second sound insulation structure 60 may be located on the periphery of the drainage channel 41. A avoidance hole 221 is provided through a portion of the drainage channel 41, so that a gap is created between a portion of the drainage channel 41 and the avoidance hole 221. The second sound insulation structure 60 may be provided on the periphery of the water receiving tray 40 near the avoidance hole 221, so that the second sound insulation structure 60 can seal the gap between a portion of the drainage channel 41 and the avoidance hole 221, thereby preventing the remaining noise after absorption by the first sound insulation cavity 54 from being transmitted to the indoor cavity 23 through the gap between a portion of the drainage channel 41 and the avoidance hole 221.

[0128] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, a second soundproofing structure 60 is positioned within the interior cavity 23. This seals the avoidance hole 221 within the interior cavity 23. The second soundproofing structure 60 is positioned around the periphery of the drainage channel 41. Since the avoidance hole 221 is shaped like a square, the second soundproofing structure 60 surrounds the periphery of the drainage channel 41. This seals the edge of the avoidance hole 221, preventing noise within the first soundproofing cavity 54 from being transmitted to the interior cavity 23 through the gap created between the avoidance hole 221 and a portion of the drainage channel 41.

[0129] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, the second sound insulation structure 60 can be constructed as a soundproof cover with openings at the bottom and rear. A second sound insulation cavity 623 can be formed in the second sound insulation structure 60. A portion of the drainage channel 41 located in the interior chamber 23 is located in the second sound insulation cavity 623. The bottom opening of the second sound insulation structure 60 facilitates the formation of the second sound insulation cavity 623 between the bottom of the second sound insulation structure 60 and the upper surface of the chassis 210. The rear opening of the second sound insulation structure 60 facilitates the protrusion of a portion of the drainage channel 41 containing the water outlet 90 from the rear opening of the second sound insulation structure 60.

[0130] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, a portion of the drainage channel 41 located within the interior chamber 23 is located within the second soundproof chamber 623. When noise within the first soundproof chamber 54 is transmitted to the second soundproof chamber 623 through the gap created by the avoidance hole 221 and a portion of the drainage channel 41, the second soundproof chamber 623 can provide secondary noise reduction. The second soundproof chamber 623 can further reflect the remaining noise, thereby further reducing noise.

[0131] In some embodiments, the second sound insulation cavity 623 can seal the outer peripheral edge of the avoidance hole 221, so that the second sound insulation cavity 623 can form a sealed cavity, thereby preventing the residual noise of the first sound insulation cavity 54 from being transmitted to the indoor cavity 23.

[0132] In some embodiments, since an indoor fan assembly 25 is provided in the indoor cavity 23, the indoor fan assembly 25 will also generate noise during operation. The second sound insulation cavity 623 is provided in the indoor cavity 23, which can prevent the noise generated by the indoor fan assembly 25 in the indoor cavity 23 from being transmitted to the first sound insulation cavity 54 through the gap at the avoidance hole 221.

[0133] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, a third soundproofing cavity or a third soundproofing structure may be provided on one side of the avoidance hole 221 within the first soundproofing cavity 54. This third soundproofing cavity or structure can seal the gap between the avoidance hole 221 and a portion of the drainage channel 41, thereby preventing noise within the first soundproofing cavity 54 from flowing through the gap to the second soundproofing cavity 623. In this way, the gaps on both sides of the avoidance hole 221 can be sealed, achieving a double seal at the avoidance hole 221.

[0134] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, the second sound insulation structure 60 can include a front panel 621. The front panel 621 can be connected to the bottom of the drainage channel 41. The top of the front panel 621 can be connected to the bottom of the drainage channel 41, and the front panel 621 can extend downward. In this way, noise within the second sound insulation cavity 623 can be reflected by the front panel 621, thereby preventing the noise from the second sound insulation cavity 623 from being transmitted to the interior cavity 23.

[0135] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, the second sound insulation structure 60 may include a second side panel 622. Two second side panels 622 may be provided. The two second side panels 622 are arranged opposite each other. The two second side panels 622 may be connected to opposite sides of the front panel 621. The two second side panels 622 may respectively contact the rear housing 22.

[0136] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 19, 20, and 21, the second sound insulation structure 60 can include a top cover plate 624. The top cover plate 624 is disposed on top of the second side plate 622. The top cover plate 624 can extend from the top of the second side plate 622 toward the drainage channel 41. Thus, when the second side plate 622 contacts the rear housing 22, the top cover plate 624 and the second side plate 622 can respectively seal the upper and middle portions of the edge of the avoidance hole 211, thereby preventing noise from being transmitted from the upper and middle portions of the edge of the avoidance hole 211.

[0137] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 21, 22, and 23, the lower edge of the second sound insulation structure 60 contacts the upper surface of the bottom chassis 210. For example, the lower edge of the front panel 621 of the second sound insulation structure 60 can be in close contact with the upper surface of the bottom chassis 210, thereby preventing noise within the second sound insulation cavity 623 from being transmitted from the lower edge of the front panel 621 to the interior cavity 23.

[0138] For another example, the lower edge of the second side panel 622 can be tightly fitted with the upper surface of the chassis 210 , thereby preventing the noise in the second sound insulation cavity 623 from being transmitted from the lower edge of the second side panel 622 to the indoor cavity 23 .

[0139] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a window air conditioner 200 is provided, as shown in Figures 13 and 14. The window air conditioner 200 may include a chassis 210, an indoor housing 20, an outdoor housing 30, an indoor heat exchanger 24, an indoor fan assembly 25, an outdoor fan assembly 33, and a drain pan 40. The indoor housing 20 may be mounted on the chassis 210. The indoor housing 20 and the chassis 210 may form an indoor cavity 23. The indoor heat exchanger 24 and the indoor fan assembly 25 are installed within the indoor cavity 23. The indoor fan assembly 25 transports indoor air to the indoor heat exchanger 24 for heat exchange, and then outputs it to the indoor room, thereby regulating the indoor temperature. The outdoor housing 30 may be mounted on the chassis 210. The outdoor housing 30, the indoor housing 20, and the chassis 210 together form an outdoor cavity 31. In this way, the outdoor housing 30, the area formed by the connection between the chassis 210 and the outdoor housing 30, and the rear panel of the indoor housing 20 can enclose an outdoor chamber 31, thereby forming an independent, enclosed area. When the compressor 34 and outdoor fan assembly 33 in the outdoor chamber 31 generate noise, the enclosed area of ​​the outdoor chamber 31 prevents the noise from the outdoor chamber 31 from being transmitted to the indoor chamber 23.

[0140] In some embodiments, the water receiving tray 40 is disposed in the indoor cavity 23. The water receiving tray 40 is located below the indoor heat exchanger 24, which can facilitate the collection of condensed water generated by the indoor heat exchanger 24, thereby preventing the condensed water from overflowing.

[0141] 14 and 17 , the water receiving tray 40 has a drainage channel 41 extending to the outdoor cavity 31. The drainage channel 41 can drain condensed water from the water receiving tray 40 out of the outdoor cavity 31, thereby preventing condensed water from accumulating in the water receiving tray 40.

[0142] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 13 and 14, the outdoor heat exchanger 32 is arranged in the outdoor cavity 31, and the outdoor fan assembly 33 is arranged in the outdoor cavity 31. The outdoor fan assembly 33 transports the outdoor air to the outdoor heat exchanger 32 for heat exchange and then outputs it to the outdoors, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the outdoor temperature.

[0143] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 14 and 17, the indoor housing 20 is formed with an avoidance hole 221.
