Therefore, the feature associated with “first” or “second” can expressly or impliedly include at least one such feature. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the realization of those of ordinary skill in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be achieved, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist, nor is it within the scope of the present disclosure.

FIG. 1 to FIG. 17 are the drawings of the description of the mobile air conditioner of the present disclosure. The present disclosure provides a mobile air conditioner capable of cooling or heating an indoor environment to adjust the temperature of the indoor environment. The mobile air conditioner adopts a new method for installing the drain valve, which can reduce the corrosion caused by the use of screws and improve the stability for installing the drain valve.

In an embodiment, the mobile air conditioner includes a housing, and an indoor heat exchanger and an outdoor heat exchanger installed in the housing. An outdoor heat exchange chamber and an indoor heat exchange chamber located above the outdoor heat exchange chamber are provided inside the housing. The outdoor heat exchanger is installed in the outdoor heat exchange chamber. The indoor heat exchanger is installed in the indoor heat exchange chamber.

When the mobile air conditioner is cooling the indoor environment, the air in the indoor environment enters the indoor heat exchange chamber, and after heat exchange by the indoor heat exchanger, cold air is generated and blown out to the indoor environment to cool the indoor environment. At the same time, the air in the indoor environment or the outdoor environment enters the outdoor heat exchange chamber, and after heat exchange by the outdoor heat exchanger, hot air is generated and finally discharged to the outdoors through the exhaust pipe.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in an embodiment, the mobile air conditioner includes a housing and a wire control assembly 800. An electric control box is provided in the housing, and the wire control assembly 800 is installed on the housing. The wire control assembly 800 includes a wire controller 810 and an adapter 820 for adapting the wire controller 810 (as shown in FIG. 11). The adapter 820 is installed on the housing, and the adapter 820 is connected to the electric control box through the wire 822. The wire controller 810 is located outside the housing, and the wire controller 810 is connected to the connection end 821.

The housing includes a chassis 100 and a cover mounted at the chassis 100. The adapter 820 of the wire control assembly 800 may be installed on the cover or the chassis 100, as long as the connection end of the adapter 820 is exposed outside the housing. That is, the remote control 810 is also located outside the housing. Therefore, the operator can connect the wire controller 810 to the adapter 820 on the outside of the housing, without disassembling the housing, and without being blocked by other components, which greatly reduces the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the wire controller 810, and is convenient for the user to check the wire controller 810. By checking the wire controller 810, the user can determine whether the wire controller 810 is faulty or the electric control box is faulty, and then determine whether to disassemble the housing.

The wire controller 810 and the adapter 820 of the wire control assembly 800 are common in the current market. When the wire control assembly 800 is working, the wire controller 810 can receive the command signal sent by the remote controller or other control terminal through WiFi, and the command signal is transmitted to the electric control box connected to the wire controller 810 through the adapter 820. After receiving the command signal, the electric control box may control the corresponding electrical components to perform operations corresponding to the signal. The control terminal that sends out the remote control signal through WiFi may be a mobile phone, a computer, or the like. Therefore, the mobile air conditioner does not need to be equipped with a remote control, or when the remote control fails or is lost, the control terminal can send the remote control signal through WiFi to control the operation of the mobile air conditioner.

In technical solutions of the present disclosure, the wire control assembly 800 is provided at the mobile air conditioner. The wire control assembly 800 includes the wire controller 810 and the adapter 820 for adapting the wire controller 810. The wire controller 810 is connected to the electric control box through the adapter 820. The mobile air conditioner can receive the remote control signal from the remote control or other control terminal through WiFi, and there is no need to be equipped with the remote control, or when the remote control fails or is lost, the control terminal can send the remote control signal through WiFi to control the operation of the mobile air conditioner.

As shown in FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, in an embodiment, in order to maintain and repair the wire controller 810, the wire controller 810 may be provided outside the housing, which not only facilitates the user to disassemble and assemble the wire controller 810 on the outside, so as to repair or replace the wire controller 810. Besides, since the wire controller 810 is not easily blocked by the housing of the mobile air conditioner or its internal components, the wire controller 810 is easier to receive the remote control command signal, which improves the signal receiving efficiency of the wire controller 810. The housing includes a chassis 100 and a cover (not shown) mounted at the chassis 100, and the wire controller 810 may be disposed outside the chassis 100 or outside the housing.

As shown in FIG. 6 to FIG. 8, the wire controller 810 may be provided at the chassis 100. The chassis 100 includes a bottom plate 110 and a side plate 120 provided along the periphery of the bottom plate 110. A lower surface of the bottom plate 110 is provided with a mounting plate 190. The adapter 820 is mounted at the mounting plate 190, and a connection end 821 of the adapter 820 extends toward a side of the chassis for connecting the wire controller 810. The mounting plate 190 is provided at the lower surface of the bottom plate 110. Therefore, when installing the remote control 810, the operator can extend the remote control 810 to the mounting plate 190 under the chassis 100 from one side of the chassis 100 (such as the front side, the rear side, the left side, the right side), and the wire controller 810 can be inserted into the connection end 821 of the adapter 820.

As shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, the bottom plate 110 is provided with a wiring channel 900 for a wire of the adapter 820 to pass through, an opening is formed at a lower end of the wiring channel 900, and the opening is located at a side of the mounting plate 190 away from the wire controller 810. That is, for the same side plate 120 of the chassis 100, the mounting plate 190 is closer to the side plate 120 than the wiring channel 900, which is convenient for the operator to connect the wire controller 810 with the adapter 820 nearby.

Since the position where the wire controller 810 and the adapter 820 are connected is located at the open side of the mounting plate 190 away from the wiring channel 900, even if the condensed water of the water receiving groove 101 or the outdoor heat exchanger or its surrounding components falls into the wiring channel 900, the condensed water will be blocked by the mounting plate 190, and will not fall to the position where the wire controller 810 and the adapter 820 are connected. That is, the mounting plate 190 can be used as a water blocking plate for the wire controller 810, to effectively waterproof the wire controller 810.

When installing the wire control assembly 800, the adapter 820 of the wire control assembly 800 may extend from the side of the mounting plate 190 corresponding to the opening to the side away from the opening (and vice versa), and the adapter 820 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 190. The connection end 821 of the adapter 820 is located at the side, that faces away from the opening, of the mounting plate 190. A wire 822 may extend from the end of the adapter 820 away from the connection end 821. The wire 822 may extend upwards into the wiring channel 900 from the opening at the lower end of the wiring channel 900, and then pass through the upper end of the wiring channel 900 and is connected to the electric control box. The wire controller 810 is connected to the connection end 821 of the adapter 820 on the side of the mounting plate 190 facing away from the opening at the lower end of the wiring channel 900.

As shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, the upper surface of the bottom plate 110 may produce condensed water. To avoid the condensed water dripping from the wiring channel 900 to the floor of the room, in an embodiment, a channel enclosure plate 910 protrudes from the upper surface of the bottom plate 110, the channel enclosure plate 910 encloses to form the wiring channel 900, and a wire outlet hole 911 is provided at a side wall of the channel enclosure plate 910, for the wire 822 of the adapter 820 to pass through the wiring channel 900. The wire 822 is passed out and then connected to the electric control box.

The channel enclosure plate 910 is close to the water receiving groove of the chassis, and the channel enclosure plate 910 is provided with the wire outlet hole 911 on the side wall away from the water receiving groove 101. The opening at the upper end of the channel enclosure plate 910 can be provided with a cover plate or covered by the electrical appliance protective cover 500. When there is water on the upper surface of the bottom plate 110, the water will be blocked by the channel enclosure plate 910, and will be difficult to flow into the wiring channel 900, thereby avoiding a water leakage accident and causing trouble to users.

As shown in FIG. 8, FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, in an embodiment, in order to facilitate passing the adapter 820 out of the mounting plate 190, the mounting plate 190 is provided with an extension port 191 for the adapter 820 to pass through. The adapter 820 may be fixed with the extension port 191 by interference fit, or a positioning structure can be provided between the adapter 820 and the extension port 191 to fix the adapter 820 in the extension port 191. In an embodiment, a first positioning block 823 protrudes from a top surface of the adapter 820 at a position away from the connection end of the adapter 820, and the first positioning block 823 is configured to abut against a periphery, that faces the opening, of the extension port 191 after the connection end 821 of the adapter 820 protrudes from the extension port 191. The first positioning block 823 protrudes from the side surface of the adapter 820.

When installing the adapter 820, the connection end 821 of the adapter 820 extends from the inner side (i.e., the side of the extension port 191 corresponding to the opening) of the extension port 191 to the outer side (i.e., the side of the extension port 191 facing away from the opening) of the extension port 191 until after the connection end 821 completely protrudes from the outer side of the extension port 191, the first positioning block 823 on the adapter 820 abuts against the inner periphery of the extension port 191, so that the adapter 820 cannot continue to pass through the extension port 191. Since the center of gravity of the adapter 820 tends to fall on the outer side of the mounting plate 190, the connection end 821 of the adapter 820 has a downward slope. The connection end of the adapter 820 has a tendency to incline upward, but is resisted by the first positioning block 823 and the inner periphery of the extension port 191, so that the adapter 820 is not easy to fall out from the extension port 191.

Further, in order to improve the stability of installing the adapter 820, in an embodiment, each side of the adapter 820 is provided with a second positioning block 824, the second positioning block 824 extends from the extension port 191 along with the connection end 821 of the adapter 820, and is configured to abut against the periphery of the extension port 191 away from the opening. The second positioning block 824 protrudes from the side surface of the adapter 820.

After the adapter 820 is installed at the extension port 191, the first positioning block 823 may abut against the inner periphery of the extension port 191, and the second positioning block 824 may abut against the outer periphery of the extension port 191, thereby limiting the movement of the adapter 820 along the inward and outward direction of the extension port 191. Under the action of no strong external force, the adapter 820 is not easy to fall out from the extension port 191. When the adapter 820 needs to be disassembled, a strong force is applied to the adapter 820 to overcome the resistance of the first positioning block 823 or the second positioning block 824, and the adapter 820 can be removed.

In an embodiment, the second positioning block 824 is provided with a front guide surface 8241 extending in a slope shape from a top of the second positioning block 824 toward the connection end 821 of the adapter 820. During the process of passing the adapter 820 from the inner side of the extension port 191 to the outer side of the extension port 191, the side edge of the extension port 191 slides along the front guide surface 8241 of the second positioning block 824, to reduce the resistance of the second positioning block 824 to the installation of the adapter 820, and reduce the difficulty of installing the adapter 820 to the extension port 191.

In addition, the second positioning block 824 may also be provided with a rear guide surface 8242 extending in a slope shape from a top of the second positioning block 824 away from the connection end of the adapter 820. During the process of disassembling the adapter 820 from the outer side of the extension port 191 to the inner side of the extension port 191, the side edge of the extension port 191 slides along the rear guide surface 8242 of the second positioning block 824, to reduce the resistance of the second positioning block 824 to the disassembly of the adapter 820, and reduce the difficulty of disassembling the adapter 820.

An angle is formed between the front guide surface 8241 of the second positioning block 824 and the rear guide surface 8242 of the second positioning block 824. A top portion that can abut against the outer periphery of the extension port 191 is formed at the angle position between the front guide surface 8241 and the rear guide surface 8242. The angle between the front guide surface 8241 and the rear guide surface 8242 may be 80° to 120°, such as but not limited to 85°, 90°, 95°, 100°, 105°, 110°, 115°, or the like.

In an embodiment, the wire controller 810 is inserted in and connected to the connection end 821 of the adapter 820. In order to enhance the firmness of the connection between the wire controller 810 and the adapter 820, in an embodiment, two opposite sides of the remote controller 810 are provided with positioning grooves 811 with forward openings, and the positioning grooves 811 are inserted into the second positioning blocks 824. When the wire controller 810 is inserted into the connection end 821 of the adapter 820, the positioning groove 811 on the wire controller 810 is aligned with the second positioning block 824. After the wire controller 810 is inserted into the connection end 821 of the adapter 820, the second positioning block 824 just enters the positioning groove 811, and the two fit together to define the wire controller 810.

Further, a third positioning block 825 protrudes from the top surface of the adapter 820 at a position close to the connection end 821 of the adapter 820, an elastic buckle 812 is provided at the wire controller 810, and the elastic buckle 812 is configured to buckle and fix with the third positioning block 825 after the wire controller 810 is inserted in and connected to the connection end 821. That is, after the insertion of the wire controller 810 and the connection end 821 of the adapter 820 is completed, the elastic buckle 812 of the wire controller 810 is just fastened to the third positioning block 825 of the adapter 820. In this way, the wire controller 810 is further fixedly connected to the adapter 820, which greatly improves the firmness of the installation of the wire controller 810, and the wire controller 810 does not easily fall off.

As shown in FIG. 9, based on any of the above embodiments, the chassis 100 is provided with a water receiving groove 101 and an installation position 105 for a compressor to be installed. The chassis 100 is configured to form an electrical appliance accommodation area 106 between the water receiving groove 101 and the installation position 105, and the electrical appliance accommodation area 106 is configured for accommodating and installing an electrical component.

The water receiving groove 101 on the chassis 100 is located below the outdoor heat exchanger for receiving the condensed water generated by the outdoor heat exchanger. Generally, a large vacant area is formed between the water receiving groove 101 and the installation position 105 for the compressor to be installed, so that the vacant area may form an electrical appliance accommodation area 106, for accommodating and installing the power supply components, making full use of the internal space of the mobile air conditioner and effectively regulating the distribution of the internal components of the mobile air conditioner. The wiring channel 900 is close to or within the electrical appliance accommodation area 106. After the wires of the adapter 820 are extended out of the wiring channel 900, the wires of the adapter 820 and the wires of the electrical components in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106 form a wiring harness and are connected to the electric control box together.

As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 12, in an embodiment, the mobile air conditioner further includes an electrical appliance protective cover 500. The electrical appliance protective cover 500 is provided in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106 and is configured to cover the electrical component and/or the wiring channel in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106.

FIG. 15 to FIG. 17 are schematic structural views of the electrical appliance protective cover 500 from different perspectives. The electrical appliance protective cover 500 can not only prevent the water droplets inside the mobile air conditioner from falling on the electrical components or the wiring channel 900, but also prevent the electrical components or the wires in the wiring channel 900 from being damp and causing leakage or damage. Moreover, surrounding components can also be prevented from colliding or being squeezed against the wiring channel 900 or the electrical components. The electrical components may be any one or more of the first water level detector 710, the second water level detector 720, the water pumping motor 620, and the drain valve 400, which will be described in detail in the following embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 12, in an embodiment, the electrical component further includes a first water level detector 710. The first water level detector 710 is installed in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106 to detect a first water level in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106, and feed the first water level signal back to the control device of the mobile air conditioner, and then the control device may receive the first water level signal for alarm or drainage.

Since the electrical appliance protective cover 500 covers the first water level detector 710 in its interior, it is difficult for maintenance personnel to view the first water level detector 710 from the outside of the electrical appliance protective cover 500 due to the obstructed view, so the electrical appliance protective cover 500 needs to be removed to inspect the first water level detector 710, and the operation is cumbersome. In view of this, in order to solve this problem, a side wall of the electrical appliance protective cover 500 is provided with a first notch 501, and the first notch 501 is configured to check the first water level detector 710.

Thus, the maintenance personnel can check whether the first water level detector 710 works normally through the first notch 501 of the electrical appliance protective cover 500. The maintenance personnel determine whether it is necessary to remove the electrical appliance protective cover 500 according to the structure viewed from the first notch 501, to reduce useless operations during the inspection process. For example, the maintenance personnel finds that the first water level detector 710 is not working normally, an inspection tool can extend into the electrical appliance protective cover 500 from the first notch 501 to repair the first water level detector 710; or the electrical appliance protective cover 500 is opened to repair or replace the first water level detector 710.

Thus, the maintenance personnel can check whether the water pumping motor 620 works normally through the third notch 503 of the electrical appliance protective cover 500. The maintenance personnel determine whether it is necessary to remove the electrical appliance protective cover 500 according to the structure viewed from the third notch 503, to reduce useless operations during the inspection process. For example, the maintenance personnel finds that the water pumping motor 620 is not working normally, an inspection tool can extend into the electrical appliance protective cover 500 from the third notch 503 to repair the water pumping motor 620; or the electrical appliance protective cover 500 is opened to repair or replace the water pumping motor 620.

As shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 9 and FIG. 15, in an embodiment, the electrical component further includes a drain valve 400. The drain valve 400 is installed in the electrical appliance accommodation area 106 to open and close a water outlet of the water receiving groove 101. After the drain valve 400 opens the water outlet, the water in the water receiving groove 101 flows out of the water outlet, then enters the drainpipe under the chassis 100, and finally drains out from the drainpipe. A fourth notch 504 is opened on a side, away from the water receiving groove 101, of the electrical appliance protective cover 500, and the fourth notch 504 corresponds to the drain valve 400, to check the drain valve 400.

Thus, the maintenance personnel can check whether the drain valve 400 works normally through the fourth notch 504 of the electrical appliance protective cover 500. The maintenance personnel determine whether it is necessary to remove the electrical appliance protective cover 500 according to the structure viewed from the fourth notch 504, to reduce useless operations during the inspection process. For example, the maintenance personnel finds that the drain valve 400 is not working normally, an inspection tool can extend into the electrical appliance protective cover 500 from the fourth notch 504 to repair the drain valve 400; or the electrical appliance protective cover 500 is opened to repair or replace the drain valve 400.

Further, a top surface of the electrical appliance protective cover 500 corresponding to the drain valve 400 is provided with a wire passage hole 505, and the wire passage hole 505 is configured for the connection wire of the drain valve 400 to pass through. The drain valve 400 is provided with a wiring terminal 412, and the wire of the wiring terminal 412 is drawn out from the wire passage hole 505. If the wire of the drain valve 400 is passed through the wire passage hole 505 inside the electrical appliance protective cover 500, it will be difficult to pass the wire due to the obstruction of the line of sight. The fourth notch 504 extends from the lower edge of the side wall of the electrical appliance protective cover 500 to the wire passage hole 505. In this way, the wire of the drain valve 400 can protrude laterally from the fourth notch 504 and then be inserted into the wire passage hole 505 along the fourth notch 504, which greatly reduces the difficulty of passing the wire.

In order to prevent the wire from falling off from the fourth notch 504, in an embodiment, a winding post 550 protrudes from a top surface of the electrical appliance protective cover, and the winding post 550 is configured to be surrounded by the wire passing through the wire passage hole 505, to position the wire on the winding post 550, so that the wire is not easy to be moved, and is difficult to escape from the fourth notch 504. When in use, the wire of the drain valve 400 extends from the fourth notch 504 to the wire passage hole 505, and is wound around the winding post 550 (wound in one or more turns), then is fixed to the clip on a side of the winding post 550, and finally connected to the electric control box.
