Description

Air conditioner Technical field

The invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular relates to an air conditioner which is stably assembled and disassembled between a water channel module and a base member.

Background technique

As a commonly used household appliance, air conditioners, traditional air conditioners, air ducts and waterway systems are installed on the bottom case parts, and the bottom case parts and the base parts form a conventional air conditioner bottom case, and the air conditioner bottom case is the most basic part. Firstly, it is fixed on the wall surface. If the air conditioner needs to be cleaned, it is extremely inconvenient for the professional to disassemble and clean the air conditioner.

In the long-term use of air conditioners, dust and other debris entering the air duct and water channel from the air inlet make the entire air duct and waterway system seriously polluted. If not cleaned in time, it will cause harm to the environment during the operation of the air conditioner. It is a great hazard to the health of users.

In order to solve the above problem, the patent of the Chinese patent document CN205037533U discloses an outer casing of an air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner indoor unit having the same, which includes an upper chassis, a lower chassis, and a guiding assembly, and the mask is detachably mounted on the upper chassis The heat exchanger is mounted on the upper chassis, and the fan is detachably mounted on the lower chassis. In the above prior art, the fan is fixedly connected with the blade, and the rotation of the fan drives the blade to rotate. Therefore, in the prior art, when disassembling, The fan and the blades need to be disassembled together to clean the contaminants in the blades. This splitting method requires the motor components to be removed and cleaned together with the air duct components. The following problems exist: the sewage is easily connected to the blades when cleaning. The motor part is damaged by the motor water inlet; or the user forgets to disconnect the fan power supply during cleaning, which may cause the user to get an electric shock.

In order to solve the above problem, the research and development personnel developed a connection structure between the first component and the second component in the air conditioner, and connected the top end of the first component through the upper limit component and the upper snap structure, and fixed the connection mechanism. The bottom end position of the first member is limited to finally detachably connect the first member with the base assembly member, and when the impeller in the first member needs to be cleaned, the fixed connection mechanism is disconnected, and then The upper limit component and the upper snap-on structure can be separated from each other, and the first component does not interact with the fan motor during the disassembly process, thereby effectively preventing the user from being shocked.

However, after the first component is mounted on the second component, in order to prevent the first component from falling off when the air conditioner is suspended from the wall, a circular hole is often formed in the first component, the screw is passed through the circular hole and then tightened in the second component. On the part. Since the air conditioner is installed in parallel with the vertical wall surface, it is necessary to first stabilize the first component with an external force during the installation and disassembly of the screw, which is an excessively complicated operation.

Summary of the invention

Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the drawback that the prior art air conditioning module of the air conditioner is screw-fixed, and the external air force is required to stabilize the air channel module during the disassembly cleaning, and the operation process is too complicated.
