In the above embodiment, the driving assembly 30 is provided to effectively ensure the stability of the reciprocating sliding of the door panel 20. Specifically, the driving assembly 30 includes a driving part, a driving part and a driven part, and the driving part provides a power source for the reciprocating sliding of the door panel 20; the driving part is matched with the driven part to convert the mechanical energy of the driving part into the kinetic energy of the door body, so that the reciprocating sliding of the door body is realized.

The number of the driving assemblies 30 is two, and the two driving assemblies 30 are symmetrically arranged at the two ends of the door panel 20, so that the two driving assemblies 30 can enable the door panel 20 to move more stably and reliably; and the two driving assemblies 30 simplify the structure of the driving assembly 30 and relatively reduce the occupied space of the driving assembly 30 in the installation cavity 11 compared with the single driving assembly 30.

Specifically, when the door panel 20 is reciprocally slid in the left-right direction, the two driving assemblies 30 are symmetrically disposed at the upper and lower ends of the door panel 20, as shown in fig. 1 to 12; when the door panel 20 is reciprocally slid in the up-down direction in the left-right direction, the two driving assemblies 30 are symmetrically disposed at the left and right ends of the door panel 20.

The driving part is a motor 31, and a motor shaft is inserted into a central hole of the gear 32 and is used for driving the gear 32 to rotate; when the gear 32 rotates, the rack 33 meshed with the gear is driven to move; when the rack 33 moves, the door panel 20 connected with the rack is driven to slide, so that the door panel 20 slides back and forth; the reciprocating sliding of the door plate 20 is realized by the linkage of the gear rack and the motor 31, and the door plate has the advantages of simple structure, high precision, easily controlled process, smooth sliding and the like.

It is worth explaining that the conditions of vibration, collision and the like in the transportation process or the drop test of the air conditioner easily cause frequent switch resetting of the door panel 20 to cause mutual collision between the gear 32 and the rack 33 and repeated friction to cause damage to the gear and the rack or track jump of the rack 33, so that the later normal operation of the air conditioner is seriously influenced, even scrapping is caused, and therefore, the design of the damping piece 40 has more protective significance for the technical scheme that the door panel 20 is driven to slide in a reciprocating manner by the gear and the rack, the safety and the reliability of the gear and the rack of the motor 31 linked door panel 20 can be greatly improved, and the driving protection are guaranteed for the transportation process and the drop test of the air conditioner.

In summary, the air conditioner provided by the invention has the advantages that the damping piece is installed at the air outlet, one end of the damping piece is clamped at one side of the air outlet, which is far away from the door panel, and the other end of the damping piece can be abutted against the edge of the door panel, so that the door panel is limited to slide back and forth relative to the shell, the problem of damage to the driving structure caused by frequent switch resetting in the transportation process or the drop test of the door panel is effectively prevented, and the safety and reliability of the driving structure are greatly improved.
