The invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict. Embodiment 1

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 2, the embodiment provides a duct hole baffle 1 including a curved surface 1 1 , a connecting plate 12 , a tongue 13 and two elastic buckles 14 , and the connecting plate 12 is disposed in the arc On the periphery of the profile 11 , the curved surface 11 protrudes from the connecting plate 12 , the shape of the curved surface 11 is adapted to the shape of the pipe hole, and the tongue 13 is disposed on the connecting plate 12 , and the two elastic buckles 14 Symmetrically disposed on both ends of the other side of the connecting plate 12 opposite to the curved surface 11.

In this embodiment, the shape of the curved surface is adapted to the hole of the pipe, that is, the curved surface is used to shield the pipe hole. When the pipe hole baffle of the embodiment is installed on the pipe hole, the curved surface It should just fit in the hole in the pipe. In order to assemble the pipe hole baffle on the air conditioner casing, the embodiment has a double combination manner of the tongue piece and the buckle, and the tongue piece of the pipe plate baffle plate is used for inserting into the air conditioner casing, so that it will go The top end of the pipe hole baffle is fixed; the two elastic snaps of the pipe hole baffle are combined with the air conditioner case to fix the bottom end of the pipe hole baffle to the air conditioner case. The elastic snap fastener is fixed in combination with the tongue piece, so that the pipe hole baffle plate of the embodiment can be applied to air conditioner housings of various surface shapes, especially for an air conditioner housing having a curved surface shape. The installation method is applicable to a wide range, easy to use and easy to disassemble.

Preferably, as an embodiment, the tube aperture baffle 1 further comprises a skirt 15 , the skirt 15 is disposed on the curved surface 11 , and the skirt 15 and the connecting plate 11 together surround the curved surface 1 1. In this embodiment, in order to maintain the uniformity of the air conditioner housing, the skirt of the embodiment is provided with a skirt at the edge of the curved surface of the duct hole baffle.

Preferably, as an embodiment, a rib 16 is disposed between the two ends of the skirt 15 and the connecting plate 12. The limit ribs are set to limit the venting hole baffle to ensure the installation position and easy installation.

Preferably, as an embodiment, referring to FIG. 4, the curved surface 11 is U-shaped as a whole, the shape of the connecting plate 12 is U-shaped, and the tongue 13 is disposed on an arc segment of the U-shaped connecting plate. Two elastic buckles 14 are respectively disposed at the ends of the straight sections of the U-shaped connecting plates. In this embodiment, the general shape of the pipe hole baffle is U-shaped, and in order to better fix the pipe hole baffle, the tongue is placed on the top of the connecting plate.

Preferably, as an embodiment, the tongue 13 is curved, and the tongue 13 is integrally formed with the connecting plate 12. The edges of the curved tongue are rounded for easy insertion and removal of the tube aperture baffle.

Preferably, as an embodiment, the arc length of the tongue piece 13 is 1 / 5 to 1 / 3 of the arc length of the arc segment of the U-shaped connecting plate 12. When the arc length of the tongue 13 is less than 1 / 5 of the length of the arc segment of the U-shaped connecting plate 12, the arc length of the tongue 13 is too short, so that the contact point of the pipe hole baffle with the casing is small. Therefore, the pipe hole baffle plate cannot be firmly fixed on the casing, and may fall off when vibrating greatly; when the arc length of the tongue piece 13 is larger than 1 / 3 of the length of the arc segment of the connecting plate, although the pipe hole The baffle is firmly bonded to the housing, but the long arc length of the tab may result in inconvenience in disassembly.

Preferably, as an implementable embodiment, the conduit hole baffle 1 further includes a wire hole shield 17 for covering the wire hole. In this embodiment, in order to further maintain the aesthetic appearance of the air conditioner, when the user needs to separately take the power line and the refrigerant tube on the left and right sides of the air conditioner, a wire hole baffle is disposed on the pipe hole baffle.

Preferably, the wire hole baffle 17 and the pipe hole baffle 1 have the same shape as the outer edge of the wire hole baffle plate 17. The trough is removed, and the trough hole baffle 17 and the trough hole baffle 1 are detachably connected or integrally formed by the dismounting groove. In the embodiment, the thickness of the disassembly groove is 'j, and the thickness of the pipe hole baffle plate. If the wire hole baffle plate is to be removed, the two can be cut or broken to separate the two. The technical effect is that when the user needs to separate the refrigerant pipe from the power line on both sides of the left and right sides of the air conditioner, the user can remove the pipe hole baffle on one side for taking the refrigerant pipe; The wire duct baffle is removed for arranging the power cord, so that the pipe hole baffle on this side is not affected. The pipe hole baffle on this side can still be fixed on the inner casing of the air conditioner, further ensuring The beauty of the air conditioner. Alternatively, a tongue and a snap connection may be used between the wire guide baffle and the pipe hole baffle. The structure of the tongue and the buckle has been described in detail in the above embodiments, and this embodiment is not described.

Preferably, the area of the wire guide baffle 17 occupies 1 / 4 of the area of the pipe hole baffle 1. This setting is convenient for manufacturing, convenient to use, and high in user satisfaction.
