Abstract
A window air conditioner includes a housing, an indoor heat exchanger, an indoor fan assembly, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan assembly, an indoor air duct casing body, and a sound insulation board. The sound insulation board is provided on on a side of the indoor air duct casing body toward the outdoor fan assembly, separates the outdoor heat exchanger and the outdoor fan assembly from the indoor fan assembly and the indoor heat exchange, and extends from a bottom to a top of the indoor air duct casing body.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:

2 . The window air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein the indoor fan assembly comprises:
an indoor front air duct provided with an air duct outlet; an indoor rear air duct located at a side of the indoor front air duct away from the air duct outlet and communicating with the indoor front air duct; and an indoor fan provided between the indoor front air duct and the indoor rear air duct and delivering indoor air from an air duct inlet to the air duct outlet; wherein the side of the indoor air duct casing body toward the outdoor fan assembly is a side of the indoor rear air duct toward the outdoor fan assembly.
3 . The window air conditioner according to claim 2 , wherein:
the sound insulation board is provided with a first positioning portion and first mounting portions; and a rear surface of the indoor rear air duct is provided with a second positioning portion and second mounting portions, the first positioning portion being in a positioning fit with the second positioning portion, and the first mounting portions and the second mounting portions being connected through fasteners.
4 . The window air conditioner according to claim 3 , wherein the first positioning portion is configured as a positioning hole, a reinforcing protrusion protruding forward is provided in the middle of the sound insulation board, and the positioning hole is provided at the reinforcing protrusion; and
wherein the second positioning portion is configured as a positioning post protruding backward, and the positioning post passes through the positioning hole.
5 . The window air conditioner according to claim 3 , wherein a plurality of first mounting portions are provided and distributed on left and right sides of the sound insulation board, a plurality of second mounting portions are provided and distributed on left and right sides of the indoor rear air duct, and the plurality of first mounting portions and the plurality of second mounting portions are correspondingly connected through the fasteners.
6 . The window air conditioner according to claim 3 , wherein the sound insulation board comprises:
a lower insulation board portion provided with the first positioning portion and the first mounting portions; and an upper insulation board portion connected to a top of the lower insulation board portion and bent relative to the lower insulation board portion in a direction toward the indoor rear air duct.
7 . The window air conditioner according to claim 6 , wherein the lower insulation board portion is provided with a reinforcing rib ring on a side toward the outdoor fan assembly.
8 . The window air conditioner according to claim 6 , wherein the housing is provided with first outdoor air inlets on two opposite sides and air makeup inlets at a top, the outdoor fan assembly delivers outdoor air at the first outdoor air inlets and the air makeup inlets to the outdoor heat exchanger for heat exchange and then outputs the air outdoors, and the air makeup inlets are located directly above the upper insulation board portion.
9 . The window air conditioner according to claim 2 , wherein an indoor air duct is formed inside the indoor air duct casing body, a portion of the indoor air duct close to an indoor space being the indoor front air duct, a portion of the indoor air duct away from the indoor space being the indoor rear air duct, and a rear surface of the indoor rear air duct being a rear surface of the indoor air duct casing body, wherein the sound insulation board is provided on the rear surface of the indoor rear air duct.
10 . The window air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein the indoor air duct casing body has a rear surface, wherein the sound insulation board is provided on the rear surface of the indoor air duct casing body.
11 . The window air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein the sound insulation board is arranged in a transverse direction of the window air conditioner and located on a path through which noise propagates toward an indoor space.
12 . The window air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a base and an outer housing, the base comprising an indoor base and an outdoor base adjacent to each other; and wherein the sound insulation board is provided at an intersection boundary between the indoor base and the outdoor base and faces indoors, and the sound insulation board extends from the outdoor base to the top of the indoor air duct casing body.
