Fig. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a panel 1 of an air conditioning indoor unit 100 in an opened state according to an exemplary embodiment, fig. 2 is a structural schematic view of a main frame 2 of the air conditioning indoor unit 100 in fig. 1, fig. 3 is a partially enlarged schematic view of fig. 2, fig. 4 is a plan view illustrating the panel 1 of the air conditioning indoor unit 100 in fig. 1 in a closed state, fig. 5 is a sectional schematic view of the air conditioning indoor unit 100 in fig. 4 a-a, and fig. 6 is a partially enlarged schematic view of fig. 5. As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the indoor unit 100 of an air conditioner may include a panel 1 and a main frame 2, the main frame 2 may include a first opening 21, the panel 1 may be movably connected with the main frame, and particularly, the panel 1 may be movably connected to the first opening 21 of the main frame 2, so that the panel 1 may be switched to an open state by a movement of the panel 1 relative to the main frame 2, thereby exposing the first opening 21 as shown in fig. 1, and the main frame and parts disposed in the main frame may be conveniently cleaned or maintained; or the panel 1 can be switched to a closed state, and at this time, the panel 1 can cover the first opening 21, so as to protect the main frame 2 from dust and water. The panel 1 may be rotatably connected to the main frame 2, or the panel 1 may be slidably connected to the main frame 2, or the panel 1 may be detachably connected to the main frame 2, and the disclosure does not limit the movement connection manner between the panel 1 and the main frame 2.

In this embodiment, the main frame 2 may further include a magnet 22 and a mounting portion 23, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, when the panel 1 is in the covering state, the mounting portion 23 is located on a side of the main frame facing away from the panel 1, and the magnet 22 is assembled in the mounting portion 23; the panel 1 may include an inductive switch 11, when the panel 1 is in the closed state, the magnet 22 and the inductive switch 11 are close to each other, and at this time, the inductive switch 11 may be switched to the on state in response to the magnetic field strength with the greater strength, and at this time, the indoor air conditioner 100 may be in the standby state; when the panel 1 is in the open state, the magnet 22 and the inductive switch 11 are away from each other, at this time, the inductive switch 11 can sense a weak magnetic field strength to switch to the power-off state, the indoor air conditioner 100 can be in the shutdown state, and at this time, the user cannot start the indoor air conditioner 100.

For example, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner may further include an ultraviolet sterilization module (not shown), the inductive switch 11 may be electrically connected to the ultraviolet sterilization module, when the panel 1 is in the closed state, the magnet 22 is close to the inductive switch 11, the inductive switch 11 may be switched to the on state in response to the magnetic field of the magnet 22, and at this time, the ultraviolet sterilization module may be switched to the standby state, that is, at this time, the user may start the sterilization function of the ultraviolet sterilization module according to the requirement; when the panel 1 is in the open state, the magnet 22 is far away from the inductive switch 11, the magnetic field is weakened, so that the inductive switch 11 can be switched to the power-off state, and the ultraviolet sterilization module is switched to the closed state, at this time, the user cannot start the sterilization function of the indoor air conditioner 100. Therefore, after the panel 1 is opened by a user or a maintenance person, the inductive switch 11 is powered off, and the ultraviolet sterilization module cannot emit ultraviolet light, so that the influence of the light on the health of the user can be avoided.

Certainly, in other embodiments, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner may further include other functional modules or a combination of other functional modules and an ultraviolet sterilization module, each functional module may be electrically connected to the inductive switch 11, when the inductive switch 11 is switched to the on state, each functional module may be switched to the standby state, a user may start a corresponding function according to a requirement, and when the inductive switch 11 is switched to the off state, each functional module may be in the off state, so as to prevent a user or a maintenance person from getting an electric shock when cleaning or maintaining the air equipment. The other functional modules may include a fan module and a compression module, and of course, may also include other functional modules, which are not limited by the present disclosure. The standby state of the indoor air conditioner 100 may be understood as that one or more functional modules of the indoor air conditioner 100 are in a standby state, and a user may start the indoor air conditioner according to a requirement to execute a related function; the indoor air conditioner 100 is in the off state, which can be understood as that one or more functional modules of the indoor air conditioner 100 are all in the off state and cannot be started by a user.

In order to switch the inductive switch 11 to the conducting state by sensing the magnetic field intensity of the magnet 22 when the panel 1 is in the covering state, as shown in fig. 6, the distance L between the magnet 22 and the inductive switch 11 should be greater than or equal to 10mm and less than or equal to 18mm, i.e. L is greater than or equal to 10mm and less than or equal to 18mm, so as to avoid that the main frame 2 is not thick enough towards the panel 1 due to too close distance, the strength is not enough, and the inductive switch 11 is not conducted due to the inability to sense the magnetic field intensity due to too far distance.

As can be seen from the above embodiments, the inductive switch 11 in the present disclosure can be turned on when the panel 1 covers the main frame 2, at this time, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner can work normally, and when the panel 1 is opened, the inductive switch 11 is turned off, and the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is switched to the off state, so that a user or a maintenance person can perform cleaning or maintenance under the condition of power failure, thereby preventing electric shock, and improving safety without manual power failure of the user. Compared with the scheme of adopting the micro switch in the related art, the method reduces the requirement on the installation space and the limitation on the structural position, and is beneficial to improving the compactness of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner during assembly.

In the above embodiments, the main frame may include the magnet 22, and the panel 1 includes the inductive switch 11. In fact, in other embodiments, it is also possible that the main frame includes the inductive switch assembly, and the panel 1 includes the magnet, which may be designed as required, and the disclosure does not limit this. Wherein, inductive switch 11 can include hall switch assembly or tongue tube switch assembly, and when this air conditioning indoor set 100 includes a plurality of inductive switch 11, this a plurality of inductive switch 11 can be hall switch assembly or tongue tube switch assembly, or also can include both hall switch assembly and tongue tube switch assembly, and this disclosure does not limit this. The air conditioning indoor unit 100 may include a wall-mounted air conditioner or a cabinet air conditioner.

As shown in fig. 3, the mounting portion 23 may include a positioning rib 231 and a mounting groove 232, the positioning rib 231 may extend from the surface of the main frame 2 toward a direction away from the panel 1, the mounting groove 232 may be defined by the positioning rib 231, the main frame 2 including the magnet 22 may be assembled in the mounting groove 232, and of course, when the main frame 2 includes the inductive switch, the inductive switch may also be assembled in the mounting groove 232. Based on this, by forming the positioning rib 231 to surround the mounting groove 232, it is possible to prevent the strength from being affected by forming a groove in the surface of the main frame 2. The extending length of the positioning rib 231 is smaller than the height of the magnet 22 in the extending direction of the positioning rib 231, so that the magnet 22 can partially protrude out of the mounting groove 232, and the magnet 22 is convenient to detach. Specifically, the difference between the extension length of the positioning rib 231 and the height of the magnet 22 in the extension direction of the positioning rib 231 is greater than or equal to 0.3 mm and less than or equal to 0.5 mm, so that the protruding height of the magnet 22 is prevented from being too short, the magnet is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble, and the protruding height of the magnet 22 is prevented from being too long to influence the assembly stability of the magnet 22 and the installation groove 232.

In this embodiment, the magnet 22 may be interference fit into the mounting slot 232, or the magnet 22 may be snapped into the mounting slot 232 by other snap-fit elements, or the magnet 22 may be glued into the mounting slot 232. The magnet 22 and the mounting groove 232 may be bonded by a double-sided adhesive tape, or may be bonded by injecting glue. It can be understood that, when injecting glue to bond the magnet 22, there is a risk of the glue overflowing the mounting groove 232, so, in order to prevent the glue from overflowing to other surfaces of the main frame 2, causing dirt, the mounting portion 23 may further include an anti-overflow rib 233, the anti-overflow rib 233 extends from the surface of the main frame 2 toward a direction away from the panel 1, and the anti-overflow rib 233 surrounds the positioning rib 231 and is disposed at an interval with the positioning rib 231, so that a space for containing the overflow glue may be reserved between the positioning rib 231 and the anti-overflow rib 233, which is beneficial to improving the aesthetic measure of the main frame 2.

As shown in fig. 7-9, the panel 1 may include a second opening (not shown), the air conditioning indoor unit 100 may further include a display component 3, the display component 3 may include a light-transmitting cover plate 31, a base 32, a circuit board 33, and a display layer 34, the circuit board 33 is fixed on the base 32, and the display layer 34 is disposed on a side of the circuit board 33 away from the base 32 and electrically connected to the circuit board 33, so as to supply power to the display layer 34, and ensure normal display of the display component 3. The base 32 is connected with the panel 1 and is arranged corresponding to the second switch, so that the second opening on the panel 1 can be covered by the display component 3, the circuit board 33 and the display layer 34 are arranged between the base 32 and the transparent cover plate 31, so that the circuit board 33 and the display layer 34 can be limited and fixed through the connection between the base 32 and the panel 1 and the connection between the transparent cover plate 31 and the panel 1, the display layer 34 can be bonded with the transparent cover plate 31 or not, and the disclosure does not limit the connection.

The inductive switch 11 included in the panel 1 may be disposed on the circuit board 33 and electrically connected to the circuit board 33, so that the conductive path of the inductive switch 11 may be disposed on the circuit board 33 without providing a special wire or contact or circuit board for the inductive switch 11. When the panel 1 includes a magnet, the magnet included in the panel 1 may be disposed on the base 32, so that the magnet may be close to the induction switch of the main frame 2. Of course, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, only the inductive switch 11 or the magnet included in the panel 1 is disposed in the display module 3 for example, but in other embodiments, the inductive switch 11 and the magnet may be disposed at other positions of the panel 1, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
