- FIGURE 2 illustrates indoor unit 102 according to embodiments of the disclosure.
- Indoor unit 102 includes a cabinet 180 in which electric heat 103, blower 110, expansion valve 112, and evaporator coil 120 are housed. For the purposes of illustration, portions of cabinet 180 have been removed from the view in FIGURE 2 .
- Indoor unit 102 includes a compartment 182 that houses, for example, HVAC controller 170 and a circuit breaker 184. HVAC controller 170 is shown installed in a tray 186.
- indoor unit 102 is in an upflow configuration.
- cabinet 180 is oriented vertically with blower 110 positioned above evaporator coil 120 and air flows through indoor unit 102 from evaporator coil 120 toward blower 110.
- cabinet 180 may be oriented horizontally with either of a side 188 or a side 189 facing upward. In either horizontal orientation, airflow through indoor unit 102 follows the same general path from evaporator coil 120 to blower 110.
- condensate can form within indoor unit 102.
- condensate can form within compartment 182. Condensation occurs when air is cooled to the air's dew point temperature. At the dew point temperature, water within the air condenses from vapor into water (i.e., condensate). Formation of condensate within compartment 182 can be problematic as the condensate can short out and/or damage components of HVAC controller 170. In some embodiments, condensate tends to form on or around circuit breaker 184.
- indoor unit 102 When indoor unit 102 is configured for upflow (e.g., the orientation shown in FIGURE 2 ), condensate that forms on or around circuit breaker 184 tends to collect on a bottom wall 192 of compartment 182. HVAC controller 170 is mounted within compartment 182 to be positioned above bottom wall 192, preventing condensate that has settled on bottom wall 192 from damaging HVAC controller 170. Similarly, when indoor unit 102 is configured for horizontal operation with side 189 facing upward, condensate that forms on or around circuit breaker 184 tends to collect within compartment 182 underneath circuit breaker 184. As HVAC controller 170 is positioned above circuit breaker 184 in this orientation, condensate that has formed on or around circuit breaker 184 does not drip onto HVAC controller 170.
- HVAC controller 170 When indoor unit 102 is configured for horizontal operation with side 188 facing upward, condensate that forms on or around circuit breaker 184 tends to drip down toward HVAC controller 170.
- HVAC controller 170 typically includes, for example, a printed circuit board (PCB) comprising various electronics components (e.g., capacitors, resistors, etc.). Condensate that drips onto HVAC controller 170 can lead to failure of HVAC controller 170 due to electrical shorts. To prevent this type of failure and to provide additional protection from physical impacts, HVAC controller 170 can be mounted to tray 186.
- PCB printed circuit board
- FIGURES 3A-3F illustrate multiple views of tray 186 according to various embodiments of the disclosure.
- FIGURES 3A-3F are top, bottom, front, back, and side views, respectively, of tray 186 with HVAC controller 170 installed therein.
- Tray 186 includes a tray base 200 to which HVAC controller 170 may be secured.
- HVAC controller 170 is secured to tray base 200 via a pair of mounting screws 202 and a pair of mounting tabs 204.
- Each mounting tab 204 extends up from tray base 200 to form a small hook-like or slot-like protrusion that is configured to receive an edge of the PCB of HVAC controller 170.
- HVAC controller 170 To secure HVAC controller 170 to tray base 200, an edge of HVAC controller 170 is positioned so that an edge of the PCB of HVAC controller 170 engages the pair of mounting tabs 204 and the pair of mounting screws 202 are then fastened to mounting points (e.g., threaded bores) of tray base 200 to secure HVAC controller 170 to tray base 200.
- Prior HVAC system designs secured HVAC controllers to the indoor unit using a plurality of screws (i.e., without mounting tabs). Compared to those prior designs, the design illustrated in FIGURES 3A-3F simplifies the process of attaching HVAC controller 170 to tray 186, reducing the time and cost to assemble indoor unit 102.
- HVAC controller 170 may be secured to tray base 200 via a single mounting screw 202 and a single mounting tab 204 (e.g., similar to the way tray 186 is secured to indoor unit 102).
- Tray 186 includes a drip wall 206 that extends outward from tray base 200.
- Drip wall 206 is oriented at an angle ⁇ that is less than 90° (best seen in FIGURES 3C and 3D ).
- drip wall 206 acts as a drain pan for condensate that drips off of circuit breaker 184.
- Orienting drip wall 206 at an angle that is less than 90° causes condensate that has fallen onto drip wall 206 to drain off of drip wall 206 toward a back side 201 of tray base 200 and away from HVAC controller 170.
- drip wall 206 includes guides 207 that form walls that prevent condensate that has fallen onto drip wall 206 from draining over the sides of drip wall 206 (best seen in FIGURES 3A and 3B ). As illustrated in FIGURES 3A-3F , guides 207 are positioned near the edges of drip wall 206. In other embodiments, drip wall 206 may include a single guide 207 or may include more than two guides 207.
- Tray 186 includes a cover 208 that provides impact protection for components 214 of HVAC controller 170 that are positioned beneath cover 208.
- Components 214 can be, for example, various electronic components such as capacitors or the like.
- Cover 208 includes a wall 210 that extends up from tray base 200 and a top plate 212 that is removably coupled to wall 210. As illustrated in FIGURES 3A-3F , wall 210 wraps around a corner of tray base 200 to partially surround components 214 to provide protection from impacts from the top and sides of components 214.
- Top plate 212 includes one or more locking tabs 213 that engage wall 210 to allow top plate 212 to be removably secured to wall 210.
- Top plate 212 optionally includes a plurality of perforations 220 that allow for improved heat dissipation.
- top plate 212 allows for technicians to more easily access components 214 and HVAC controller 170 to perform an inspection or maintenance.
- Tray 186 is secured to indoor unit 102 via a mounting tab 216 and a mounting bracket 218 that includes an aperture 219 for receiving a mounting screw.
- Mounting tab 216 extends down from back side 201 of tray base 200 and is configured to engage/interlock with a corresponding mount (e.g., a tab or slot) within compartment 182.
- Mounting bracket 218 extends from tray base 200 so that HVAC controller 170 does not cover aperture 219 when HVAC controller 170 is installed in tray 186. With mounting tab 216 engaged with the corresponding mount within compartment 182, the mounting screw can then be used to secure tray 186 by passing the mounting screw through aperture 219 of mounting bracket 218 and threading the mounting screw into a corresponding mounting hole positioned on a wall of compartment 182.
- the design of tray 186 with mounting tab 216 and mounting bracket 218 allows for tray 186 to be quickly and easily installed or removed, making both assembly and maintenance simpler and cheaper.
- FIGURE 4 illustrates tray 186 according to various embodiments of the disclosure.
- tray 186 does not include drip wall 206 but is otherwise similar to the embodiment of tray 186 illustrated in FIGURES 3A-3F .
- the inclusion of drip wall 206 may be optional.
- tray 186 is not positioned beneath circuit breaker 184 and the inclusion of drip wall 206 is optional.
- indoor unit 102 is configured with side 189 facing up, tray 186 is positioned above circuit breaker 184 and the inclusion of drip wall 206 is optional.
