Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a technical field of an air conditioner device,
and in particular to an indoor unit and an air conditioner with the indoor unit.
Background
[0002] In the prior art, the design of an evaporator pipeline layout of the air conditioner
mainly to use s a back of a bottom shell to open an avoiding groove for a pipeline
layout, so as to make the pipeline extend to a pipeline avoiding area at a lower part
of the bottom shell, and the pipeline can be discharged from both sides of the air
conditioner at the final installation. Such the design can prevent the pipeline layout
from affecting an outer design of the air conditioner to some extent, and can protect
the pipeline from collision damage during transportation. However, in the production
assembly, the evaporator component must be integrally lifted up firstly when assembled
to the bottom shell component, so that the pipeline passes longitudinally through
the avoiding groove pipeline at the back of the bottom shell, and then the pipeline
at the lower part of the bottom shell is hidden below the air conditioner. This largely
limits the increase in production efficiency and increases the length of the pipeline,
which is disadvantageous for production and cost control. Due to the design structure
of the groove at the back of the bottom shell, the length direction of the bottom
shell is cut off by the longitudinally generated pipeline layout groove, resulting
in a problem of reduction in overall strength. Meanwhile, in the prior art, the left
and right asymmetric screw connections and snap-fitting connections are adopted to
fix the evaporator component, which causes the problem that the evaporator component
shakes greatly and is easily broken and collides with the local structure when the
whole machine is dropping.

improve the connection reliability of the angle-shaped frame assembly with the housing
10.
[0037] As shown in Fig. 3, the second mounting surface of the base 11 is provided with a
first limiting plane 13. The first limiting plane 13 is parallel to a plane where
the second mounting surface of the base 11 is located, the first limiting plane 13
is disposed close to the first connecting hole 12, and a hook portion of the first
hook 222 and the first limiting plane 13 cooperate with each other, that is, a hook
portion surface of the first hook 222 and the first limiting plane 13 are fitted together.
As shown in Fig. 2, the second mounting surface of the base 11 is provided with a
second limiting plane 14, an included angle is provided between the second limiting
plane 14 and the plane where the bottom of the base 11 is located, the second limiting
plane 14 is disposed close to the second connecting hole 112, and a hook portion of
the second hook 224 and the second limiting plane 14 cooperate with each other. It
can be seen from Fig. 2 that the second limiting plane 14 gradually extends obliquely
toward a side of a surface of the second mounting surface of the base 11, so that
the connection stability between the angle-shaped frame assembly and the housing 10
can be further improved.
[0038] As shown in Fig. 9, in order to further improve the connection stability between
the angle-shaped assembly and the housing 10, the pressing plate 223 is provided with
a first positioning hole 225 for connecting with the base 11. The angle-shaped frame

plane where the first mounting surface of the base 11 is located gradually increases
in a width direction of the base 11. Wherein the first side and the second side are
two sides along a longitudinal direction of the base 11. In this way, the installation
of the air duct assembly can be effectively facilitated, and the function of effectively
protecting the pipe assembly can be achieved.
[0042] In particular, the pipeline assembly 30 includes a first component section 31, a
second component section 32, and a third component section 33. The first end of the

the predetermined position is located in the accommodation space below the protective
plate 16. In this way, the pipeline layout of the pipeline assembly can be conveniently
arranged, and the installation work of the evaporator is conveniently facilitated.
[0043] In order to further make the pipeline layout of the pipeline assembly more reasonable
and compact, at least a part of the first component 31 may be disposed within a pipeline
slot 41. In the present embodiment, the pipeline assembly 30 includes an air pipe
34 and a liquid pipe 35, and the air pipe 34 and the liquid pipe 35 are arranged in

[0044] The indoor unit in the above embodiments can also be used in the technical field
of air conditioner devices, that is, according to another aspect of the present disclosure,

extends from the first side of the first mounting surface of the base toward the second
side of the base, and the second end of the pipeline assembly passes through the first
mounting surface and the side where the second mounting surface is located and communicates
with the outdoor unit. In this way, the pipeline assembly communicating with the outdoor
unit is provided to arrange from the front of the base of the indoor unit, thereby
avoiding the pipeline distribution mode in which the pipeline groove is provided in
the back of the indoor unit in the prior art. The pipeline layout of the indoor unit
is made more reasonable by adopting the pipeline layout of the pipe assembly in the
present application. Furthermore, by means of the pipeline layout of the present application,
it can be avoided that the pipeline groove is arranged at the back of the housing.
Thus, the overall strength of the housing of the indoor unit is effectively improved,
and the installation difficulty of the evaporator assembly is reduced, mechanized
assembly of the indoor unit can be realized.
[0046] In the present embodiment, the left and right sides of the evaporator component are
respectively provided with a angle-shaped frame and a pressing plate with screws and
hooks, and the pipeline is designed to be lifted up and bent forwardly and upwardly,
so as to cooperate with a fixation of a motor seat and a pipeline layout groove structure
on the base, so that the evaporator component can be directly assembled from the front
surface without reversing the whole machine. This arrangement not only improves the
assembly efficiency of the whole machine, but also facilitates the maintenance work
of disassembly and assembly after sale. The front edge of the base raises for avoiding
a pipeline layout, thereby achieving unobstructed assembly and disassembly of the
bottom shell component and satisfying the requirement of convenient assembly and disassembly
of the bottom shell component.
[0047] As shown in Fig. 7, the motor base component is firstly assembled to the base component,
and then the pre-assembled evaporator component is assembled to the base component.
The left side of the evaporator component is designed with an angle-shaped frame structure
(the angle-shaped frame is fitted together with the evaporator by two screws), the
front end of the angle-shaped frame is designed with a hook and a screw column structure
cooperated with the base, the back portion of the the angle-shaped frame is provided
with a screw column for fixing the bottom shell, and the peripheral structure is a
protective pipe structure 227 for protecting the U-shaped pipe of the evaporator and
a screw column 228. The right side of the evaporator component is designed with a
right pressing plate structure (the right pressing plate is connected to the evaporator
by an edge evaporator buckle), the front of the right pressing plate is designed with
a hook structure cooperated with the base, the back portion of the right pressing
plate is provided with a screw hole cooperated with the motor base, and the pipeline
is designed to be raised and bent forwardly and upwardly, and then directly extended
to the front of the evaporator component, then bent toward the bottom of the evaporator.
Hold the two sides of the evaporator component by hands while assembling, the hooks
on the left and right sides are quickly inserted into the left and right hook mounting
holes designed on the base to complete preset positioning and mounting, and at this
time, the inner side surface of the hook cooperates with the platform surface of the
base hook, and this surface is parallel to the bottom surface of the base, thereby
ensuring that the mounted evaporator component is smoothly mounted on the base. As
shown in Fig. 2, A and B in the figure are evaporator buckles of the right pressing
plate.
[0048] The evaporator component is mounted on the base component to realize the pre-positioning
and preliminary assembly of the evaporator component, at this time, the evaporator
component can be preliminarily stabilized on the base, and the fixing screw holes
of the left angle-shaped frame and the base are aligned. Furthermore, a fixing screw
hole of the right pressing plate and a fixing screw column hole of the right pressing
plate at the top of the motor base are aligned, and then two fixing screws can be
used to directly fix the evaporator component on the base component to complete fixing
and assembling of the evaporator component. The whole assembly process only needs
to be hanged from the front of the base component, and the whole assembly operation
can be completed by bolting the screws, which is simple and quick to assemble.
[0049] After the fixing of the evaporator component and the base is completed, according
to the pipeline layout shown in Fig. 5, only a micro-corrective on deformed pipelines
is required, so that the pipeline can be arranged along the pipeline layout groove
structure at the top of the motor base, then passes downward through the front of
the motor base, and extends along the preset pipeline layout avoiding notched of the
base to front edge lower portion of the base, and finally, bends to left and extends
to the bottom protruding the protective plate of a front edge of the base . In this
case, the protective plate structure disposed on the base is protruded and lifted,
so that the space at the bottom of the front edge of the base facilitates the pipeline
layout. The dismantling process of the bottom shell component always slides along
the inclined surfaces generated by the base front edge lifting for the pipeline layout
and the base front edge lifting and the protruding protective plate structure can
protect the air-liquid pipeline well, so that the bottom shell component can be prevented
from colliding during pulling and loading. The disassembly operation of the bottom
shell component is facilitated, the production assembly efficiency is improved, and
the disassembly of the bottom shell component can also be realized when the user cleans
the bottom shell component after sale. In the schematic diagram of the bottom shell
component and the base component, the bottom shell component and the bottom shell
fixing screw column of the angle-shaped frame and the bottom shell fixing screw column
of the right pressing plate are respectively fastened by screws, and since the bottom
shell component is slid into the base by the guide rail and then is fastened integrally
with the base by screws. At this time, in the completely fastened structure, the front
part of the evaporator component and the bottom shell component are merely connected,
which also enables the evaporator component to have a screw symmetrically fastened
to the hanging hook at four diagonal corners respectively, so that the evaporator
component is firmly connected to the base as a whole, thereby avoiding a shaking collision
in the fall, and improving the stability of the structure.
[0050] With the air conditioner of the present mechanism, modularization and integration
of the structure design of the air conditioner are realized. However, the conventional
