The upper and lower surfaces of the cabinet body 300 are open to form an air duct 301 communicated with the air outlet 120. The heating assembly 200 is detachably installed in the cabinet body 300. It can be understood that when the heating assembly 200 needs to be installed or inspected, the panel can be opened and the heating assembly 200 may be taken out or put in through the window 110 without removing the fan box 1000 and the heat exchange box, enabling an easy and convenient operation.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the heating assembly 200 includes a terminal block 220 and a heating unit 210. The front side of the terminal block 220 faces the window 110. The heating unit 210 is connected to the rear side of the terminal block 220. The terminal block 220 is configured to install an electrical component 221 such as a switch, a wiring terminal or a circuit breaker, and to provide power to the heating unit 210. The cabinet body 300 is provided with an opening at a front side wall surface thereof. During the process of installation, the heating unit 210 may be put into the cabinet body 300 through the opening by pushing the terminal block 220. The heating unit 210 may also be moved out of the cabinet body 300 through the opening to realize the detachable installation of the heating assembly 200. It can be understood that after being installed in place, the heating unit 210 is located in an inner cavity of the cabinet body 300, and the terminal block 220 is located outside of the cabinet body 300, thereby achieving isolation between the heating unit 210 and the electrical component 221, and safety requirements are met.
Referring to FIG. 2, it can be understood that in an embodiment, a first guide member 230 is provided at the terminal block 220, and a second guide member 330 is provided at the cabinet body 300. The first guide member 230 is in sliding connection with the second guide member 330. In addition, each of the first guide member 230 and the second guide member 330 is arranged along a direction from a front end to a rear end of the box body 100. With the cooperation of the first guide member 230 and the second guide member 330, the heating unit 210 can be quickly moved into or out of the cabinet body 300. This arrangement is stable and reliable.
It should be noted that, as shown in FIG. 1, the bottom of the cabinet body 300 is provided with a bottom plate 320. The bottom plate 320 separates the inner cavity of the box body 100 to form an upper chamber and a lower chamber. The bottom plate 320 may also be understood as a partition, where the heating assembly 200 is located in the upper chamber, and the fan assembly is located in the lower chamber. It can be understood that the bottom plate 320 is fixedly connected with the box body 100, and the heating assembly 200 can be supported by the bottom plate 320. The second guide member 330 is disposed on the bottom plate 320. The first guide member 230 and the second guide member 330 may be guide rails or other guiding structures. For example, the bottom of the terminal block 220 and the upper surface of the bottom plate 320 are respectively provided with a guide rail that is matched, where the guide rail on the bottom plate 320 extends from the window 110 to the opening, and the terminal block 220 can move between the window 110 and the opening along the guidance of the guide rails, enabling the heating unit 210 to be pushed into or pulled out of the cabinet body 300.
In an embodiment, the first guide member 230 may be disposed on a side of the terminal block 220, and the second guide member 330 may be disposed on the inner wall of the box body 100, for example, the guide rails are disposed on a side wall of the terminal block 220 and an opposite side wall of the box body 100, thus the heating assembly 200 can be guided.
In the related art, when there is no guide structure, it is inconvenient to pull out the heating assembly 200, and when the heating assembly 200 is inserted to be installed, it is easy to cause inaccurate positioning, which reduces the installation efficiency. In addition, if the installation is not in place, it is easy to cause the air handling unit to vibrate during operation, which will further generate noise and affect user experience.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 4, in some embodiments, the first guide member 230 includes folding edges 231 formed at each side of the bottom end of the terminal block 220, and each of the folding edges 231 is arranged extending along a direction from front to rear of the terminal block 220. The second guide member 330 includes two guide grooves 332 formed at the bottom plate 320. The two folding edges 231 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the two guide grooves 332. The folding edges 231 are capable of sliding along the guide grooves 332, such that a guiding function can be provided for the terminal block 220 by the folding edges 231 being in sliding fit with the guide grooves 332.
As shown in FIG. 4, it can be understood that in an embodiment, the terminal block 220 and the bottom plate 320 may be made of sheet metal parts, and the sheet metal parts may be bent to form the folding edges 231 at the bottom of the terminal block 220. The bottom plate 320 may be stamped to have the guide grooves 332. The notches of the two guide grooves 332 both face the terminal block 220, and the notches of the two guide grooves 332 are arranged oppositely. The terminal block 220 is located between the two guide grooves 332, such that the folding edges 231 of two sides can be correspondingly inserted into the guide grooves 332 and slide along the guide grooves 332.
In an embodiment, the folding edges 231 may be disposed towards the bottom plate 320, and the notches of the guide grooves 332 may be disposed upwards, such that the two folding edges 231 can be inserted downwards into the corresponding guide grooves 332 for matching. In some embodiments, the number of folding edges 231 and guide grooves 332 are not limited to two. That is, two or more folding edges 231 may also be disposed on each side of the terminal block 220, and meanwhile two or more folding edges 231 are disposed on the bottom plate 320 correspondingly. A more stable guide structure is achieved by the cooperation of the folding edges 231 and the guide grooves 332.
Referring to FIG. 4, in an embodiment, each folding edge 231 includes two bending segments connected in sequence. The bottom plate 320 is provided with two limit plates 331. Each limit plate 331 cooperates with an upper surface of the bottom plate 320 to form a guide groove 332. The folding edge 231 and the guide groove 332 on the right side are taken as an example for illustration. The folding edge 231 includes a first bending segment 2311 and a second bending segment 2312. The bending angle between the first bending segment 2311 and the second bending segment 2312 is substantially 90°, such that the two bending segments are connected in sequence to form a structure with a substantially U-shaped cross-section. One end of the limit plate 331 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 320, and the other end is spaced from the bottom plate 320 to form a guide groove 332 with a substantially U-shaped cross-section. The folding edge 231 and the guide groove 332 are in clearance fit, thereby ensuring that the folding edge 231 can be in sliding connection with the guide groove 332.
It can be understood that the folding edge 231 and the guide groove 332 use the arrangement of the embodiment shown in FIG. 4. When the folding edge 231 slides along the guide groove 332, each of the first bending segment 2311 and the second bending segment 2312 is capable of abutting against the inner wall of the guide groove 332, playing a limiting role. Specifically, the top and bottom walls of the guide groove 332 are capable of limiting the folding edge 231 in the vertical direction, and the side wall of the guide groove 332 is capable of limiting the folding edge 231 in the horizontal direction. At the same time, the two guide grooves 332 are cooperated to limit the left and right sides of the terminal block 220, such that the heating assembly 200 is limited by four directions, up, down, left, and right, thereby achieving a more stable installation and guiding effect. No matter what install position the air handling unit is adopt, vertical, horizontal or upside down, it can be ensured that the heating assembly 200 will not easily to shake or fall, and the structure will be more stable and reliable.
It should be noted that the number of bending segments is not limited to two, and more bending segments may also be disposed. For example, three bending segments are connected in sequence to form a folding edge 231 with a substantially square-shaped cross-section. Of course, the cross-sectional shape of the folding edge 231 may also be a cylindrical, triangular or other polygonal shape, without specific definition.
Referring to FIG. 4, the limit plate 331 includes an upper baffle and a side baffle. The upper baffle and the side baffle cooperate with the upper surface of the bottom plate 320 to form a guide groove 332. The upper baffle plate and the side baffle plate are respectively provided with a turning edge 3311 at one end facing the window 110. The turning edge 3311 is bent and disposed obliquely towards the outer side of the guide groove 332, such that the two turning edges 3311 form a guide bevel towards the end face of the window 110. The second introduction port is formed at the front end of the guide groove 332 by matching the guide bevel, and serves as a guide member, which facilitates the folding edge 231 to enter the guide groove 332 along the second introduction port, thereby achieving rapid positioning of the folding edge 231 and the guide groove 332.
Referring to FIG. 2, it can be understood that manual operation is required when removing and installing the heating assembly 200. Thus, in an embodiment, the side wall of the terminal block 220 is provided with an opening hole 222. The opening hole 222 is disposed along the height direction of the terminal block 220, and is substantially in a long and narrow shape. The specific size of the opening hole 222 allows human hands to access, thereby making it easy to grasp the heating assembly 200 for removal and installation without the need for additional handles, simplifying the structure of the heating assembly 200, and being conducive to saving installation space. In an embodiment, it can be understood that the opening hole 222 may be disposed on each side of the terminal block 220, or the opening hole 222 may be disposed on the top wall surface of the terminal block 220. The specific arrangement is based on application requirements without specific definition.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, in some embodiments, a convex edge 223 is disposed on each side of the terminal block 220, and an opening is disposed in a front baffle 310 of the cabinet body 300. The convex edge 223 and the front baffle 310 are respectively provided with corresponding screw holes. When the heating assembly 200 is installed in place, the terminal block 220 is fixedly connected with the cabinet body 300 by screwing the screws into the screw holes, thereby achieving the object of fixing the heating assembly 200 and preventing the heating assembly 200 from loosening and falling.
Considering that the heating unit 210 needs to be positioned within the cabinet body 300, in the related art, the heating assembly 200 is positioned using an installation method of shafts being inserted in holes. In this method, mounting holes are reserved on the cabinet body 300, and steel wire shafts are disposed on the heating unit 210, thus multiple steel wire shafts need to be inserted into the corresponding mounting holes at the same time to install them in place. After the air handling unit is installed, due to the obstruction of the air duct, after-sales personnel need to perform blind installation when aligning the steel wire shaft with the mounting hole. However, the heating assembly 200 may be difficult to be installed in place due to the deformation of the steel wire shaft or the inability of the installation guide to accurately limit the position, thereby reducing the work efficiency.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, it can be understood that one end of the heating unit 210 is connected to the terminal block 220, the other end is provided with a first positioning member 213, and multiple second positioning members 401 are arranged in the cabinet body 300. The multiple second positioning members 401 are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the cabinet body 300 facing the opening. The first positioning member 213 can fit with any one of second positioning members 401 for positioning. The second positioning members 401 are arranged adjacent to each other. When the terminal block 220 drives the heating unit 210 to move into the inner cavity of the cabinet body 300 through the opening, the first positioning member 213 will move towards the second positioning member 401. When the heating unit 210 is installed in place, the first positioning member 213 is capable of having location fit with one of the second positioning members 401 to enable the heating unit 210 to be quickly positioned.
It can be understood that, compared with the one-to-one positioning method in the related art, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a one-to-many positioning method is used, that is, one first positioning member 213 may correspond to the multiple second positioning members 401. The number of the second positioning members 401 needs to be greater than the number of the first positioning members 213. For example, the first positioning member 213 may be a positioning rod, the second positioning member 401 may be a positioning groove, and multiple positioning grooves are arranged next to each other. When the positioning rod is deformed and deviated, it may be inserted into the adjacent positioning groove for positioning, thereby the positioning of the heating unit 210 is not affected, and positioning problems caused by component deformation or the inability of installation guide to accurately limit the position are effectively solved. In this way, rapid positioning can be achieved without the need for precise guidance, and the heating assembly 200 can be quickly installed in place even when it is blindly installed, effectively improving the maintenance efficiency of the air handling unit.
Referring to FIG. 3, according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the heating unit 210 includes a bracket 212 and a heating body. The heating body is an electric heating wire 211.
