Specifically, the water collecting tray 200 is disposed above the condenser 100, the water collecting tray 200 has a water tank, a baffle 230 is installed in the water tank along a length direction of the condenser 100, and the baffle 230 divides the water tank into a water receiving tank 210 and a flow dividing tank 220. The upper end of the baffle 230 is horizontally disposed, the bottom wall of the dividing channel 220 is provided with a plurality of water seepage holes 221 arranged along the length direction of the condenser 100, and the side wall of the water receiving tank 210 is provided with a water inlet 211 for letting in condensed water of the indoor unit. When the condensed water in the water receiving tank 210 is accumulated to a certain height, the water in the water receiving tank 210 can overflow into the diversion channel 220 through the upper end surface of the baffle 230, and then flow into the condenser 100 below from the water seepage hole 221. It should be noted that, in order to prevent the condensed water from splashing to the outside from the water receiving tank 210 and the diversion trench 220, a cover plate may be further installed above the water tank, and the top of the water tank may be sealed by the cover plate, so as to prevent the condensed water from splashing to the outside of the water tank. Referring to fig. 4, in particular, the water seepage hole 221 is provided in plurality, and the plurality of water seepage holes 221 are arranged in an array on the bottom wall of the diversion channel 220.

The outdoor unit can effectively utilize the condensed water of the indoor unit to cool the condenser 100, so that the condenser 100 can obtain a better cooling effect, and the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 100 is effectively improved.

Referring to fig. 2, it can be understood that, in order to make the distribution of the condensed water on the condenser 100 more uniform, in some embodiments of the present invention, the outdoor unit further includes a water seepage member 400, and the water seepage member 400 is located below the dividing channel 220 and is installed at the upper end of the condenser 100. When the condensed water in the diversion trench 220 drips to the water seepage part 400, the water seepage part 400 can absorb the condensed water and permeate the condensed water to all parts inside the water seepage part 400, and then the condensed water flows into the condenser 100 to cool the condenser 100, so that the condensed water can cool the condenser 100 more uniformly, the cooling effect of the condenser 100 is further improved, and the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 100 is improved.

It should be noted that, in some embodiments of the present invention, the water permeating member 400 is a sponge, and the sponge is adhered to the upper end of the condenser 100 along the length direction of the condenser 100. The sponge has good water permeability, low price and convenient processing, and can be quickly arranged at the upper end of the condenser 100 in a bonding mode. Of course, the water permeable member 400 may also be a cloth strip or other structural member with good water permeability, and the specific water permeable member 400 may be selected according to actual needs.

It should be noted that, when the indoor unit of the air conditioner operates the cleaning function, a large amount of dirt may be contained in the condensed water discharged from the indoor unit, and if the condensed water is directly introduced into the water receiving tank 210 and then enters the diversion channel 220 to cool the condenser 100, the dirt may adversely affect the normal operation of the condenser 100, so that it is necessary to control the condensed water to enter the water receiving tank 210. For this reason, referring to fig. 2, fig. 3 and fig. 5, in some embodiments of the present invention, the outdoor unit further includes a water diversion control mechanism 300, the water diversion control mechanism 300 includes a box body 310 and a motor 320, the inside of the box body 310 has a water inlet cavity 311 and a water drainage cavity 312 separated by a movable plate 330, the water inlet cavity 311 is provided with a water receiving port 313 connected with a condensed water pipe of the indoor unit, the water inlet 211 is communicated with the water inlet cavity 311, the water drainage cavity 312 is provided with a water drainage port 314, the height of the water drainage port 314 is lower than the height of the water inlet 211, and the motor 320 is used for driving the movable plate 330 to control the conduction or the separation of the water inlet cavity 311 and the water drainage cavity 312. When the condensed water is relatively dirty, the motor 320 controls the movable plate 330 to move, so that the drainage cavity 312 is communicated with the water inlet cavity 311, the condensed water entering the water inlet cavity 311 enters the drainage cavity 312, and then is directly discharged through the drainage outlet 314, thereby preventing the condensed water from cooling the condenser 100 through the water seepage hole 221. When the condensed water is relatively clean, the motor 320 controls the movable plate 330 to move, so that the drainage cavity 312 is separated from the water inlet cavity 311, and the condensed water entering the water inlet cavity 311 can enter the water receiving tank 210 through the water inlet 211, then overflows to the diversion channel 220 through the baffle 230, and finally flows to the condenser 100 below, so as to cool the condenser 100.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments of the present invention, the movable plate 330 may move in a horizontal direction, and the motor 320 may drive the movable plate 330 to move in the horizontal direction through a connecting rod or a driving belt, for example, when the movable plate 330 moves towards one side of the water outlet 314 by a set distance, a conduction opening is formed between the bottom of the movable plate 330 and the bottom wall of the box 310, so that the water outlet cavity 312 is conducted with the water inlet cavity 311; when the movable plate 330 moves toward the water inlet 211 side, the conduction port is gradually reduced until being closed, thereby isolating the drain chamber 312 from the water inlet chamber 311.

It should be noted that the outdoor unit is usually provided with a fan, the fan blows the outside air to the condenser 100, when the condensed water flowing into the condenser 100 is too much, water is easily blown away by the fan and splashes around to cause adverse effects on the internal electric appliances of the outdoor unit, for this reason, referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments of the present invention, the water inlet cavity 311 is further provided with a spillway 315, the height of the bottom wall of the spillway 315 is higher than the height of the upper end of the overflow plate, therefore, the water level of the water inlet cavity 311 can be controlled through the spillway 315, and then the flow of the condensed water entering the water receiving tank 210 is controlled.

Referring to fig. 5, it can be understood that, in some embodiments of the present invention, the height difference between the bottom wall of the overflow gap 315 and the upper end surface of the overflow plate is H, and it is satisfied that 0mm < H is less than or equal to 6mm, and the height difference is controlled within the above range, so that the condensed water entering the water receiving tank 210 from the water inlet cavity 311 can be controlled within a suitable flow range, and within the flow range, the condensed water can cool the condenser 100 well, and meanwhile, the problem that the condensed water is blown by wind to cause the condensed water to splash around can be avoided as much as possible.

Referring to fig. 5, it can be understood that, in order to better manage the condensed water discharged from the overflow 315, in some embodiments of the present invention, the drain pipe 316 is connected to the drain outlet 314, the overflow 315 is connected to the overflow 317, and the overflow 317 is communicated with the drain pipe 316, so that the condensed water discharged from the overflow 315 passes through the overflow 317 and then is introduced into the drain pipe 316, and is discharged to the outside of the outdoor unit, thereby preventing the condensed water discharged from the overflow 315 from being directly discharged to the inside of the outdoor unit to cause adverse effects on the electric appliances inside the outdoor unit.

It is understood that, in some embodiments of the present invention, the water diversion control mechanism 300 further comprises a turbidity sensor disposed in the water inlet cavity 311, and the turbidity sensor is connected to the motor 320. When turbidity sensor detected the turbidity of the comdenstion water in the intake antrum 311 and reached first setting value, turbidity sensor sent signal gave the motor 320, and the removal of motor 320 control movable plate 330 for drainage chamber 312 and intake antrum 311 switch on, thereby let in the comdenstion water in the intake antrum 311 drainage chamber 312 in, then discharge through outlet 314, avoid cooling off condenser 100 in letting in the higher comdenstion water of turbidity with water receiving tank 210. When the turbidity sensor detects that the turbidity of the condensed water in the water inlet cavity 311 is lower than the second set value, the turbidity sensor sends a signal to the motor 320, the motor 320 controls the movable plate 330 to move, so that the water discharge cavity 312 is separated from the water inlet cavity 311, so that the water in the water inlet cavity 311 can enter the water receiving tank 210 through the water inlet 211, then overflow to the diversion channel 220 through the baffle 230, and finally flow into the condenser 100 to cool the condenser 100. It will be appreciated that the second set point is lower than the first set point, thereby avoiding frequent motor 320 starts. Of course, the activation of the motor 320 may also be controlled by the control system, for example, when the indoor unit activates the cleaning function, the control system controls the motor 320 to drive the movable plate 330 such that the drain chamber 312 and the inlet chamber 311 are communicated, and when the indoor unit deactivates the cleaning function, the control system controls the motor 320 to drive the movable plate 330 such that the drain chamber 312 and the inlet chamber 311 are separated.

Referring to fig. 2, it should be noted that the casing assembly 500 of the outdoor unit generally includes a top cover 510, so as to facilitate the processing, in some embodiments of the present invention, the water collecting tray 200 is integrally formed at the lower end of the top cover 510, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the water collecting tray 200. Of course, the water collection tray 200 may be attached to the lower end of the top cover 510 by a connector such as a bolt, or the water collection tray 200 may be attached to the upper side of the condenser 100 by a mounting bracket.

Specifically, the water receiving tray is provided with a condensate pipe, and the condensate pipe is connected with the water receiving port 313 of the box body 310 of the water distribution control mechanism 300. When the heat exchanger of the indoor unit generates condensed water, the condensed water drops into the water receiving tray, and then part of the condensed water is discharged through the condensed water pipe and flows into the water inlet cavity 311 of the box body 310, then enters the water receiving tank 210 of the water collecting tray 200 through the water inlet 211, then evenly overflows into the flow dividing tank 220 through the baffle 230, and finally is discharged to the condenser 100 below through the water seepage hole 221, so that the condenser 100 is cooled.

Because the air conditioner adopts the outdoor unit, when the condenser 100 needs to be cooled, the water collecting tray 200 can lead the condensed water of the indoor unit into the water receiving tank 210 through the water inlet 211, under the blocking effect of the baffle plate 230, the condensed water is accumulated to a certain height in the water receiving tank 210 and then overflows to the diversion channel 220 through the baffle plate 230, and because the upper end of the baffle plate 230 is horizontally arranged, the water in the water receiving tank 210 can uniformly flow into the diversion channel 220 and then flows into the issued condenser 100 through the water seepage holes 221, so that the condenser 100 is cooled more uniformly, the cooling effect of the condenser 100 is favorably improved, the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 100 is improved, and the energy-saving effect of the air conditioner is favorably improved.
