[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202421714293.5, filed on July 18, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] This application relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0004] In the existing technology, the technical means used to discharge the condensate produced by the air conditioner usually include: using a collection box to collect the condensate, and then placing it on the top of the outdoor unit so that it can be blown away by the fan. This method is difficult to guarantee the timely discharge of the condensate. If the air conditioner is continuously cooling, or if the casing of the outdoor unit may have some structural gaps, there is a possibility of condensate leakage, which can easily lead to accidental dripping of water from the outdoor unit. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main purpose of this application is to provide an outdoor unit and air conditioner designed to reduce the possibility of accidental water leakage from the outdoor unit.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner proposed in this application includes:

[0007] Outdoor unit main body;

[0008] A water guiding structure is provided on the outdoor unit body, which guides the condensate water flowing into the outdoor unit of the air conditioner to be discharged from a preset position.

[0009] In one embodiment, the chassis of the outdoor unit body has a first drain hole that communicates with the outside. The water guiding structure includes a water guiding pipe, one end of which is connected to the indoor drain pipe and the other end of which is connected to the first drain hole. At least a portion of the water guiding pipe is fixed to the chassis.

[0010] In one embodiment, the outdoor unit body is provided with a limiting structure, which is used to arrange the water pipe on the chassis according to a preset path.

[0011] In one embodiment, the limiting structure includes a first limiting member disposed on the chassis, the first limiting member extending along a preset path, the first limiting member and the chassis forming a limiting space, and the water guide pipe passing through the limiting space.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first limiting member is fixed to the chassis by a first fastener; and / or,

[0013] The first limiting member is welded to the chassis.

[0014] In one embodiment, the limiting structure includes a plurality of second limiting members disposed on the chassis, the plurality of second limiting members being arranged at intervals along a preset path, the second limiting members pressing the water guide pipe against the chassis; and / or, the second limiting members respectively connecting the water guide pipe and the chassis.

[0015] In one embodiment, the second limiting member is fixed to the chassis by a second fastener; and / or,

[0016] The second limiting member is welded to the chassis; and / or,

[0017] The second limiting component is integrally formed with the water guide pipe.

[0018] In one embodiment, the water conduit is configured as a rigid pipe or a flexible pipe; and / or,

[0019] The outdoor unit body includes an outdoor heat exchanger, and the first drain hole is located below the outdoor heat exchanger; and / or

[0020] The water pipe has multiple bends to avoid other components on the chassis.

[0021] In one embodiment, the water guiding structure further includes a water guiding plate disposed on the outer side of the bottom of the outdoor unit body. The water guiding plate is used to receive the condensate discharged from the outdoor unit body, and a second drain hole is provided on the water guiding plate to drain the condensate in the water guiding plate.

[0022] In one embodiment, the bottom of the water guide plate is provided with a water collection trough, and the bottom of the water collection trough is lower than other positions of the bottom of the water guide plate, and the second drain hole is opened at the bottom of the water collection trough.

[0023] This application also proposes an air conditioner, including an indoor unit, a flexible connection assembly, and an outdoor unit as described above. The flexible connection assembly connects the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. The flexible connection assembly includes a sleeve, a flexible refrigerant pipe disposed within the sleeve, and an indoor drain pipe. The indoor drain pipe is used to discharge condensate from the indoor unit to the outdoor unit.

[0024] The technical solution of this application guides the condensate flowing into the outdoor unit through a water-guiding structure, thereby directing it to drain from a preset location. Condensate from the indoor unit typically drains directly into the outdoor unit. For example, an indoor drain pipe can drain the condensate from the indoor unit onto the outdoor heat exchanger inside the outdoor unit, assisting in heat dissipation during cooling mode, before dripping onto the chassis of the outdoor unit. Alternatively, it can drain directly onto the chassis and then out of the outdoor unit. In this drainage method, the condensate needs to remain inside the outdoor unit. The casing of the outdoor unit inevitably has some installation gaps. When the air conditioner operates continuously, and there is excessive condensate inside the outdoor unit, water can easily leak from these gaps, leading to accidental leakage and making the drainage location uncontrollable. Furthermore, the condensate remaining inside the outdoor unit can easily cause corrosion of the casing.

[0025] Therefore, a drainage structure is installed that can guide the condensate flowing into the outdoor unit of the air conditioner to be discharged from a preset position, so that the condensate of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can only be discharged from the preset position, thereby reducing the possibility of accidental water leakage from the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0046] This application discloses an outdoor unit 100 for an air conditioner, comprising an outdoor unit 100 and an indoor unit. A flexible connection assembly 200 connects the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100. This air conditioner can be a split-type air conditioner that facilitates individual installation by the user. It uses refrigerant pipes to connect the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit and the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit 100, and refrigerant is injected into the refrigerant circuit before the equipment leaves the factory. Thus, when the user installs the equipment themselves, they only need to fix the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100 separately, without needing to assemble the refrigerant pipes or add refrigerant, thereby reducing installation difficulty and enabling individual installation. However, this design is not limited to this; in other embodiments, the air conditioner of this application can also be a conventional split-type air conditioner or an integrated air conditioner.

[0047] The flexible connection assembly 200 includes a sleeve, a flexible refrigerant pipe and an indoor drain pipe disposed within the sleeve, the indoor drain pipe being used to discharge condensate from the indoor unit of the air conditioner to the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1 to 14. In one embodiment of this application, the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner includes:

[0049] Outdoor unit body 1;

[0050] Water guiding structure 2 is located on the outdoor unit body 1. Water guiding structure 2 can guide the condensate water flowing into the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner to be discharged from a preset position.

[0051] Specifically, the outdoor unit 100 is used in an air conditioner, which includes an outdoor unit 100 and an indoor unit. The flexible connection assembly 200 connects the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100 respectively. The flexible connection assembly 200 may include a flexible refrigerant pipe and an indoor drain pipe, and a sleeve fitted over the flexible refrigerant pipe and the indoor drain pipe; or it may include a flexible refrigerant pipe, an indoor drain pipe, and a power conductor, and a sleeve fitted over all three. For split-type air conditioners, the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100 need to be connected via a flexible refrigerant pipe and a power conductor. To facilitate the drainage of condensate generated by the indoor unit, the indoor drain pipe is usually introduced into the outdoor unit 100 together with the flexible refrigerant pipe and the power conductor, thereby facilitating the connection between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100 and enabling the secondary use of condensate.

[0052] To facilitate the drainage of condensate from the air conditioner, the outdoor unit 100 is generally equipped with an outdoor drain pipe. The indoor drain pipe drains the condensate from the indoor unit into the outdoor unit body 1, and then the outdoor drain pipe drains the condensate from the outdoor unit body 1. Therefore, one end of the outdoor drain pipe is installed in the outdoor unit body 1, and the other end extends to a preset position.

[0053] However, in existing technologies, condensate from the indoor unit of an air conditioner is typically discharged directly into the outdoor unit 1. For example, an indoor drain pipe can drain the condensate from the indoor unit onto the outdoor heat exchanger inside the outdoor unit 1, assisting in heat dissipation during cooling mode, before dripping onto the chassis 11 of the outdoor unit 1. Alternatively, it can drain directly onto the chassis 11 and then out of the outdoor unit 1. This drainage method requires the condensate to remain inside the outdoor unit 1. The casing of the outdoor unit 1 inevitably has some installation gaps. When the air conditioner operates continuously, and there is excessive condensate inside the outdoor unit 1, water can easily leak from these gaps, causing unexpected leakage and making the drainage location uncontrollable. Furthermore, the condensate remaining inside the outdoor unit 1 can easily lead to corrosion of the casing.

[0054] Therefore, a drainage structure is provided that guides the condensate flowing into the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner to be discharged from a preset location, thus ensuring that the condensate from the outdoor unit 100 can only be discharged from the preset location, thereby reducing the possibility of accidental leakage from the outdoor unit 100. This drainage structure can be installed inside the outdoor unit body 1. In this case, the condensate in the indoor drain pipe can also flow into a preset water pipe located inside the outdoor unit body 1, and be guided by the preset water pipe to the preset location for discharge. In this case, the condensate will not remain inside the outdoor unit body 1. Alternatively, the drainage structure can be installed outside the outdoor unit body 1, such as by setting a receiving structure on the outside of the outdoor unit body 1 to receive the condensate flowing out of the outdoor unit body 1 and guide it to the preset location for discharge. Therefore, the preset location can be set on the outdoor unit body 1 or on the water guiding structure 2 outside the outdoor unit body 1, as long as it ensures that the condensate flows out from the preset controllable location, it is within the protection scope of this solution.

[0055] Please refer to Figures 1 to 11. In the embodiments of this application, the chassis 11 of the outdoor unit body 1 has a first drain hole connected to the outside. The water guiding structure 2 includes a water guiding pipe 21. One end of the water guiding pipe 21 is connected to the indoor drain pipe, and the other end is connected to the first drain hole. At least a portion of the water guiding pipe 21 is fixed to the chassis 11. That is, the outdoor unit body 1 is provided with a water guiding pipe 21 (preset water pipe), and the water is guided to a preset position for discharge by the water guiding pipe 21 (preset water pipe). At this time, the condensate will not stay in the outdoor unit body 1, thereby reducing the possibility of condensate seeping through the structural gaps of the casing of the outdoor unit body 1, thereby reducing the possibility of accidental water leakage from the outdoor unit 100, and also reducing the possibility of corrosion and rust on the chassis 11. The water guiding structure 2 can also achieve precise guidance of condensate. This "point-to-point" drainage method can prevent condensate discharged from the indoor unit of the air conditioner from staying in the outdoor unit 100. There is no need to consider the installation angle of the outdoor unit 100. Even if the outdoor unit 100 is installed at an angle due to the installation environment or installation error, the condensate will not leak from the casing of the outdoor unit. One end of the water guiding pipe 21 is connected to the indoor drain pipe, and the other end is connected to the first drain hole. Therefore, the water guiding hole can be partially fixed in the chassis 11, such as one end of the water guiding pipe 21 extending upward to connect with the indoor drain pipe, and / or the other end of the water guiding pipe 21 passing through the first drain hole, with the remaining part fixed to the chassis 11; or, the water guiding hole is completely fixed to the chassis 11, the indoor drain pipe extends downward to the chassis 11 and connects to one end of the water guiding pipe 21, and the outdoor drain pipe connects to the other end of the water guiding pipe 21 at the first drain hole.

[0056] At this point, the preset position is also the location of the first drain hole. The first drain hole is typically located below the outdoor heat exchanger, further facilitating the flow of condensate dripping from the outdoor heat exchanger into the first drain hole. To further facilitate the flow of condensate on the chassis 11, guide channels can be provided on the chassis 11, with the first drain hole correspondingly located at the bottom of the guide channels. This guides the condensate on the chassis 11, facilitating its flow into the first drain hole and reducing the possibility of accidental condensate leakage when the outdoor unit 100 is installed at an angle.

[0057] To ensure the fixation of the water guide pipe 21, in this embodiment of the novel, a limiting structure 3 is provided inside the outdoor unit body 1. The limiting structure 3 is used to arrange the water guide pipe 21 on the chassis 11 according to a preset path. The limiting structure 3 can restrict the arrangement direction and arrangement method of the water guide pipe 21, thereby controlling the water guide pipe 21 to be arranged along the preset path, thereby restricting the flow path of condensate water, and thus controlling the flow of condensate water in the outdoor unit 100 of the air conditioner.

[0058] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5. The limiting structure 3 includes a first limiting member 31 disposed on the chassis 11. The first limiting member 31 extends along a preset path, forming a limiting space with the chassis 11. The water guide pipe 21 passes through the limiting space. Specifically, the first limiting member 31 is often configured as a slender member whose length is much greater than its width. In this case, the first limiting member 31 and the chassis 11 form a limiting space, and the water guide pipe 21 passes through the limiting space, thereby restricting the extension path of the water guide pipe 21 and fixing the water guide pipe 21.

[0059] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3. In the embodiments of this application, the limiting space is configured as a limiting groove formed in the first limiting member 31. In this case, the first limiting member 31 is fixed to the chassis 11 by the first fastener. In actual installation, the water pipe 21 can be installed in the limiting groove of the first limiting member 31 first, and then the first limiting member 31 can be installed to the chassis 11 by the first fastener, thereby facilitating the installation of the first limiting member 31 and ensuring the stability of the first limiting member 31. At this time, the first limiting member 31 can also be welded or snapped to the chassis 11. Moreover, the first limiting member 31 can be manufactured by blow molding, and the first fastener can be configured as a fastening screw.

[0060] Referring to Figures 4 and 5, in another embodiment of this application, the limiting space can be formed by the first limiting member 31 and the chassis 11 together, in which case the first limiting member 31 is welded to the chassis 11. During actual installation, the first limiting member 31 can be welded to the chassis 11 first to form the limiting space, and then the water pipe 21 can be passed through this limiting space. In this case, the first limiting member 31 can also be fixed to the chassis 11 by the first fastener, or snapped onto the chassis 11. The first limiting member 31 can be manufactured by a stamping process.

[0061] Compared to fixing the water pipe 21 with only a single first limiting member 31, in another embodiment of this application, as shown in Figures 6 to 11, the limiting structure 3 includes a plurality of second limiting members 32 disposed on the chassis 11. The plurality of second limiting members 32 are arranged at intervals along a preset path, and the second limiting members 32 press the water pipe 21 against the chassis 11; and / or, the second limiting members 32 are respectively connected to the water pipe 21 and the chassis 11. Specifically, the plurality of second limiting members 32 are arranged at intervals along a preset path, thereby fixing the water pipe 21 to the chassis 11 along a preset path. Moreover, in this fixing method, the space occupied by the second limiting members 32 is smaller, which facilitates the installation of the second limiting members 32.

[0062] Referring to Figures 10 and 11, the second limiting member 32 can press the water guide pipe 21 tightly against the chassis 11; referring to Figures 6 and 9, the second limiting member 32 can also connect the water guide pipe 21 and the chassis 11 respectively, such as one end of the first limiting member 31 being installed on the water guide pipe 21 and the other end being installed on the chassis 11, or one end of the first limiting member 31 bypassing the water guide pipe 21 and being fixedly installed on the chassis 11 with the other end.

[0063] To facilitate the installation of the second limiting member 32, in the embodiments of this application, the second limiting member 32 is fixed to the chassis 11 by a second fastener, thereby facilitating the installation of the second limiting member 32 and ensuring the stability of the second limiting member 32. The second fastener can be configured as a fastening screw.

[0064] In another embodiment of this application, the second limiting member 32 is welded to the chassis 11, thereby facilitating the fixation of the water pipe 21.

[0065] In another embodiment of this application, the second limiting member 32 is integrally formed with the water guide pipe 21. That is, the water guide pipe 21 is configured as a special-shaped pipe, and the second limiting member 32 and the water guide pipe 21 can be supported by a blow molding process. In other embodiments, the second limiting member 32 can also be snapped onto the chassis 11, or integrally formed with the chassis 11.

[0066] In the embodiments of this application, the water guide pipe 21 is configured as a flexible pipe, thereby facilitating the arrangement and installation of the water guide pipe 21 on the chassis 11. Of course, in other embodiments, the water guide pipe 21 may also be configured as a rigid pipe.

[0067] Furthermore, the water pipe 21 has multiple bends to avoid other components on the chassis 11. This allows the water pipe 21 to be arranged using the existing space inside the outdoor unit body 1, which helps to reduce the size of the air conditioner outdoor unit 100.

[0068] Compared to guiding condensate through the water pipe 21, in another embodiment of this application, as shown in Figures 12 to 14, the water guiding structure 2 also includes a water guiding plate 22 located on the outer side of the bottom of the outdoor unit body 1. The water guiding plate 22 is used to receive the condensate discharged from the outdoor unit body 1, and a second drain hole 221 is provided on the water guiding plate 22 to drain the condensate in the water guiding plate 22.

[0069] Specifically, the water guide plate 22 is located on the outer side of the bottom of the outdoor unit body 1, thereby receiving the condensate discharged from the outdoor unit body 1. This ensures that regardless of where the condensate flows from within the outdoor unit body 1 (at the first drain hole and / or the assembly gap of the casing), it first flows into the water guide plate 22, and is then uniformly discharged through the second drain hole 221. Therefore, the installation angle of the outdoor unit 100 is not a concern; even if the outdoor unit 100 is installed at an angle due to the installation environment or installation errors, condensate will not leak from the casing. Compared to using a water guide pipe 21 to guide the condensate, this design facilitates the assembly of the outdoor unit body 1.

[0070] Furthermore, the bottom of the water guide plate 22 is provided with a water collection trough 222, and the bottom of the water collection trough 222 is lower than other positions on the bottom of the water guide plate 22. A second drain hole 221 is also located at the bottom of the water collection trough 222. Specifically, the bottom of the water collection trough 222 is lower than other positions on the bottom of the water guide plate 22, so that the condensate flowing into the water guide plate 22 will flow into the water collection trough 222 due to its own weight, thereby reducing the accumulation of condensate in other positions on the water guide plate 22. The second drain hole 221 is located at the bottom of the water collection trough 222, further facilitating the discharge of condensate.

[0071] This application also proposes an air conditioner, which includes an indoor unit, a flexible connection assembly 200, and an outdoor unit 100. The specific structure of the outdoor unit 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here. The flexible connection assembly 200 connects the indoor unit and the outdoor unit 100.

[0072] The above are merely exemplary embodiments of this application and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of this application and the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
