Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
First embodiment
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the present embodiment provides an electrical control box 100, and the electrical control box 100 provided in the present embodiment can lock and fix the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 only after the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is mounted in place, so as to improve the fixing effect of the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114.
The electrical control box 100 is one of the core components of the air conditioner, the electrical control box 100 is mainly used for electrically connecting with each component to control the operation of each component, in the electrical control box 100, the circuit board 112 is mainly used for installing each electronic component, the heat sink 114 is mainly used for dissipating heat of each electronic component on the circuit board 112, and the working effect of the electronic component is prevented from being influenced by the overhigh temperature of the electronic component, and in the process of installing the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114, the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is firstly placed at the installation position, and then the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is locked on the electrical control box 100 by using screws after being installed in place. However, the conventional mounting method is easy to occur when the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is not mounted in place, and the screw locks the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 on the electronic control box 100, so that the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is not stably fixed on the electronic control box 100, and when the air conditioner shakes, the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is easy to be separated from the electronic control box 100, which affects the normal operation of the electronic control box 100. The electrical control box 100 provided in this embodiment can improve the above problem, and can lock and fix the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 after the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114 is mounted in place, thereby improving the fixing effect of the circuit board 112 or the heat sink 114.
Referring to fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4, in the present embodiment, the electrical control box 100 includes an installation component 110, a housing 120, a limiting component 130 and a fixing component (not shown), the limiting component 130 includes a limiting portion 132 and a guiding portion 134, the limiting portion 132 is installed on the housing 120, the installation component 110 has an installation portion (not shown), the installation portion is fixedly connected to the housing 120 through the fixing component, the guiding portion 134 is connected to the limiting portion 132, and under a condition that an end of the installation component 110 and an end of the guiding portion 134 far from the limiting portion 132 are in contact, a distance between the installation portion and the housing 120 is greater than a length of the fixing component.
In this embodiment, in the process of mounting the mounting member 110 on the housing 120, the mounting member 110 slides along the guiding portion 134, and after sliding to the proper position relative to the guiding portion 134, the mounting member 110 is connected to the limiting portion 132, the limiting portion 132 limits the mounting member 110, and after the mounting member 110 is disposed in the limiting portion 132, the mounting member 110 and the housing 120 are fixedly connected by using a fixing member, so that the mounting member 110 is fixed on the housing 120.
Because under the condition that the installation piece 110 is contacted with the one end of the guide part 134 far away from the limiting part 132, the distance between the installation part and the shell 120 is greater than the length of the fixing piece, under the condition that the installation piece 110 slides to be matched with the limiting part 132, the distance between the installation part and the shell 120 is greater than the length of the fixing piece, the fixing piece can not fixedly connect the installation piece 110 and the shell 120, namely, only after the installation piece 110 slides to be matched with the limiting part 132 relative to the guide part 134, the fixing piece can fixedly connect the installation piece 110 and the shell 120, the situation that the installation piece 110 is not installed in place and the fixing piece locks the installation piece on the electronic control box 100 is avoided, and therefore the fixing effect of the installation piece 110 is improved.
The housing 120 is provided with a limiting structure on a side opposite to the limiting member 130, and in the process of installing the installation member 110 on the housing 120, one end of the installation member 110 is first placed on the limiting structure, and the other end of the installation member 110 is slid to be matched with the limiting portion 132 at the extending guide portion 134, so that the installation member 110 can be fixed on the housing 120 by using a fixing member. In other words, when the mounting member 110 is placed inside the housing 120, one end of the mounting member 110 is placed on the limiting structure, and the other end of the mounting member 110 is placed at the end of the guiding portion 134 away from the limiting portion 132 first, because the length of the guiding portion 134 is long, the inclination angle of the whole mounting member 110 is relatively large, and an operator can directly observe that the mounting member 110 is not installed in place.
Generally, the mounting portion is a mounting hole, the fixing member is a screw, and the housing 120 is provided with a coupling hole, and the screw is coupled to the mounting hole after passing through the coupling hole, thereby fixing the mounting member 110 to the housing 120.
Referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6, in the present embodiment, the guiding portion 134 has a guiding surface 136 disposed obliquely, and after the mounting member 110 slides to a position relative to the guiding surface 136, the mounting member 110 is fixedly connected to the limiting portion 132.
In this embodiment, the mounting member 110 may be a circuit board 112, a heat sink 114, or other components. In the process of mounting the mounting member 110 on the housing 120, the mounting member 110 gradually slides along the inclined guide surface 136 toward the direction approaching the position-limiting portion 132, and after the mounting member 110 slides in place relative to the guide surface 136, that is, after being separated from the guide surface 136, the mounting member is fixedly connected with the position-limiting portion 132. After the mounting member 110 is engaged with the stopper 132, the mounting member 110 is fixed to the housing 120 by a fixing member.
It will be readily appreciated that the mounting member 110 sliding into position relative to the guide surface 136 means that the mounting member 110 slides out of abutment with the guide surface 136, i.e. the mounting member 110 slides into engagement with the position-limiting portion 132, which means that the mounting member 110 slides into position relative to the guide surface 136.
In the present embodiment, the guide surface 136 is gradually inclined toward the stopper portion 132, that is, the thickness of the guide portion 134 gradually increases in the direction toward the stopper portion 132, and the thickness of the guide portion 134 increases in the direction toward the stopper portion 132.
In the present embodiment, the position-limiting portion 132 has a position-limiting groove 138, and the mounting member 110 is received in the position-limiting groove 138 after sliding in place relative to the guiding surface 136.
In the process that the mounting member 110 slides relative to the guide surface 136, the mounting member 110 abuts against the guide surface 136, an external force is applied to the mounting member 110, the mounting member 110 extends to the guide surface 136 to slide under the action of the external force, and when the mounting member slides to the connection position between the guide surface 136 and the limiting part 132, the mounting member 110 is separated from the abutting against the guide surface 136 and is clamped into the limiting groove 138.
In the present embodiment, the guide portion 134 is an elastic portion. The guide portion 134 has a certain elasticity, and when the mounting member 110 is mounted to the housing 120, a certain external force is applied to the mounting member 110, and the mounting member 110 slides relative to the guide surface 136, and the guide portion 134 has elasticity and generates a certain deformation, so that the mounting member 110 can slide to be matched with the limiting groove 138.
The mounting member 110 may be a circuit board 112. When the mounting member 110 is the circuit board 112, the position-limiting portion 132 and the guiding portion 134 are perpendicular to each other. The limiting parts 132 and the guide parts 134 which are perpendicular to each other can increase the length of the guide parts 134, and before the circuit board 112 is installed, the longer the guide parts 134 are, the larger the inclination angle of the circuit board 112 is, the easier the operator can find that the circuit board 112 is not installed in place, and the position of the circuit board 112 can be adjusted in time.
Of course, the limiting portion 132 may not be perpendicular to the guiding portion 134, and may form other angles, and the same scheme as the present embodiment can achieve the effect of the present embodiment, and all of them are within the protection scope of the present invention.
In addition, the mounting member 110 may be a heat sink 114. When the mounting member 110 is the heat sink 114, since the mass of the heat sink 114 is larger than that of the circuit board 112, in order to reduce the stress of the guide portions 134, a plurality of guide portions 134 are provided on the position-limiting portion 132, and a plurality of guide portions 134 are sequentially provided on the position-limiting portion 132 at intervals.
Of course, under the condition that the mounting member 110 is the heat sink 114, the guide portion 134 and the limiting portion 132 are also vertically arranged, and the length of the guide portion 134 is similarly increased, and before the heat sink 114 is mounted, the longer the guide portion 134 is, the larger the inclination angle of the heat sink 114 is, the easier the operator can find that the heat sink 114 is not mounted in place, and the position of the heat sink 114 can be adjusted in time.
In the present embodiment, there are a plurality of the limiting members 130, and the limiting members 130 are disposed on the same side of the housing 120.
No matter the mounting member 110 is a circuit board 112, a heat sink 114, or other structures, the length may be relatively large, and the mounting member 110 may be limited by a plurality of spacing members 130, so as to improve the limiting effect on the mounting member 110.
The operation principle of the electric control box 100 provided by the embodiment is as follows: in this embodiment, first, one end of the mounting element 110 is placed on the limiting structure, and the other end is placed on the side of the guiding portion 134 away from the limiting portion 132, so that an external force is applied to the mounting element 110, and after the mounting element 110 slides along the guiding portion 134 to be matched with the limiting portion 132, the mounting element 110 can be fixed on the housing 120 by using the fixing element, thereby completing the fixing of the mounting element 110.
In summary, in the electrical control box 100 provided in this embodiment, under the condition that the mounting element 110 is in contact with the end of the guide portion 134 away from the limiting portion 132, the distance between the mounting portion and the housing 120 is greater than the length of the fixing element, and under the condition that the mounting element 110 slides to be matched with the limiting portion 132, the distance between the mounting portion and the housing 120 is greater than the length of the fixing element, and the fixing element cannot fixedly connect the mounting element 110 and the housing 120, that is, only after the mounting element 110 slides to be matched with the limiting portion 132 relative to the guide portion 134, the fixing element can fixedly connect the mounting element 110 and the housing 120, thereby avoiding the situation that the mounting element 110 is not mounted in place and the fixing element locks the mounting element on the electrical control box 100, and improving the fixing effect of the mounting element 110.
