The panel 10 is designed and provided aiming at the problems that in the product assembly process of the prior art, the surface of the shell of the air conditioner made of metal materials is easy to be uneven and scratched due to assembly operation, or deformation, corrugation, indentation or bending occur due to interference among various parts, and the shell of the air conditioner is likely to crack due to stress concentration caused by the drawing process. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a panel 10 is optionally provided on a front end surface of the air conditioner. The air conditioner can be one of a split wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, a split floor-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, a split wall-mounted air conditioner outdoor unit, a split floor-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, an air purifier, fresh air equipment or other electric appliances with air conditioning functions. The panel 10 may constitute the entire front surface of the air conditioner, or may constitute a part of the front surface of the air conditioner. The side end surface of the air conditioner can be formed according to the needs, for example, the side end surface of the air conditioner outdoor machine shell is formed by matching the integral design of the building outer vertical surface, so as to embody different artistic modeling or visual experience.
