由此，本公开实施例提供的空调器具有空间利用率高的优点。
在一些实施例中，外壳120包括壳体123和把手壳124，把手壳124可拆卸地设在壳体123上，把手壳124构成了外壳120的该凸出部。进一步地，把手壳124包括端板1241和围绕端板1241并与其连接的围板1242。
进一步地，在一些实施例中，控制器110与把手壳124可拆卸地相连，端板1241上设有与容纳腔121连通的操作孔122，控制器110的操作面111与操作孔122相对，且操作面111通过操作面111露出。操作人员可以对通过操作孔122露出的操作面111进行触碰操作，此时控制器110为内置。由于控制器110与把手壳124可拆卸地相连，可以将控制器110从把手壳124上拆卸下来，置于室内墙或室外墙壁上，此时控制器110外置。对控制器110进行拆卸时，可以先将把手壳124从壳体123上拆下，即可将与把手壳124连接的控制器110拆下，无需拆开壳体123或者外壳120的外围钣金，方便快捷，便于售后维修，并使 得控制器110的设置更加灵活。
或者，在另一些实施例中，端板1241上不设置操作孔122，控制器110的操作面111设在端板1241上且与端板1241一体成型。端板1241的外侧面即凸出部的外侧面。进一步地，把手壳124与控制器110的操作面111一体成型。所述操作面111为触摸感应操作盘，例如把手壳124由塑料制成，触摸设置在端板1241上的操作面111既可对控制器110进行控制。
下面根据图1-图3为例详细描述本实施例提供的若干实施例。
实施例一：
如图1和图2所示，在本实施例中，空调器100包括本体和控制器110。本体包括外壳120，外壳120包括壳体123以及可拆卸设置在壳体123上的把手壳124，把手壳124相对壳体123向外突出形成凸出部，把手壳124包括端板1241以及围板1242，端板1241和围板1242限定出位于端板1241后侧的容纳腔121。端板1241的一部分相对其余部分向容纳腔121内部凹陷以形成了把手槽1243，把手槽1243便于操作人员搬动空调器100。
也就是说，在本实施例中，正是利用了空调器100的把手壳124限定出的容纳腔121，将控制器110安置在内，没有改变原本的空调100的外观，提高了空间利用率。需要说明的是，本实施例只是以把手壳124作为示例，在其他实施例中，还可以利用空调器100的外壳120上形成的其他凸出部限定出的容纳腔121来安置控制器110，同样也可以提高空间利用率，这里不作赘述。
如图2所示，端板1241上开设有用于露出控制器110的操作面111的操作孔122。控制器110与把手壳124可拆卸地相连。在一些具体实例中，操作面111位于操作孔122内，即在前后方向上位于端板1241的前壁面和后壁面之间，或者，操作面111与端板1241的前壁面平齐，这里不作限制。
具体地，控制器110包括操作面板，操作面111即设置在该操作面板的前侧面上。控制器120的其余部分位于操作面板的后方。操作面板的至少一部分配合在操作孔122中，控制器120的其余部分则位于容纳腔121中。控制器120的该其余部分抵靠在端板1241的后壁面上，更具体地，控制器120的该其余部分端板1241的位于操作孔122附近的部分上，以便控制器110在向前方向上被限位。
在对本实施例中的控制器110进行安装时，将控制器110的控制面板从后向前安装到把手壳124的操作孔122中，并且如上设置使得控制器110在从后向前安装的过程中能够被限位，控制器110不会从操作孔122中向前窜出。
在一些具体实例中，控制器110的该其余部分的尺寸大于操作面板部分的尺寸，在控制器110上形成了台阶结构。
进一步地，为了将控制器110与把手壳124相互连接，本实施例的空调器100还包括控制器支撑件130和控制器限位件140。
如图2所示，控制器支撑件130用于对控制器110进行支撑，控制器支撑件130与端板1241的后壁面相连，且围绕控制器110的位于容纳腔121中的该其余部分设置。并且，控制器110的该其余部分配合在控制器支撑件130中，以便控制器支撑件130对控制器110在上下左右方向上进行限位支撑。也就是说，控制器支撑件130为中空框，控制器110从后向前穿过控制器支撑件130的中部通孔，使控制器支撑件130套设在控制器110的该其余部分上。由此，在上下左右方向控制器110不会发生跳跃或窜动。
在使控制器110与控制器支撑件130相互配合之后，将控制器限位件140从后方安装在端板1241的后壁面上，控制器限位件140包括在前后方向上与控制器110相抵的部分，该部分与控制器110的后侧相抵以便对控制器110在向后方向上进行限位。也就是说，控制器限位件140与端板1241的后壁面相连，控制器限位件140用于对控制器110在向后方向上进行限位。由此，通过控制器支撑件130和控制器限位件140，控制器110与把手壳124相互固定。可以理解的是，控制器限位件140还可以与控制器支撑件130相连。
在其他实施例中，空调器100也可以不包括控制器限位件140，使控制器支撑件130连接有限位部，该限位部在在前后方向上与控制器110相抵，也可以实现对控制器110的在向后方向上的限位，即利用控制器支撑件130同时对控制器110在上下左右方向上以及向后方向上进行限位。
在一些具体实例中，空调器100还包括密封圈150，密封圈150配合在操作孔122内并位于操作面板的配合在操作孔122中的部分与端板1241之间。也就是说，密封圈150的外周面与操作孔122的周面相抵，内周面与操作面板的位于操作孔122中的部分相抵，密封圈150用于控制器110与端板1241之间的密封，避免水或灰尘通过控制器110与端板1241之间的缝隙进入空调器100内部，影响空调器100的运行。
在具体实例中，空调器100还包括盖板160，盖板160在覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置和露出操作面111的露出位置可旋转地连接在把手壳124上。具体地，盖板160可以连接在端板1241上，与端板1241的连接位置可以位于操作孔122的上方。当无需对控制器110进行操作时，可以将盖板160旋转到覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置，防水防尘，需要操作时，可以将盖板160旋转至露出操作面111的露出位置，以便对操作面111进行操作。并且，在控制器110需要拆卸下来外置时，可以将盖板160移动到覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置，避免水或灰尘通过操作孔122进入空调器内部。
实施例二：
下面以图3为例描述本实施例的空调器100。在本实施例中，空调器100包括本体和控 制器110。本体包括外壳120，外壳120包括壳体123以及可拆卸设置在壳体123上的把手壳124，把手壳124相对壳体123向外突出形成凸出部，把手壳124包括端板1241以及围板1242，端板1241和围板1242限定出位于端板1241后侧的容纳腔121。端板1241的一部分相对其余部分向容纳腔121内部凹陷以形成了把手槽1243，把手槽1243便于操作人员搬动空调器100。
如图3所示，端板1241上开设有操作孔122。在本实施例中，控制器110与把手壳124可拆卸地相连。
具体地，空调器100包括控制器安装盒170，控制器安装盒170限定出安装腔，安装腔的前侧敞开，控制器110安装在控制器安装盒170的安装腔内，且操作面111与该安装腔的前侧敞口相对以便使操作面111露出，控制器安装盒170的至少一部分位于容纳腔121中并与端板1241相连。可以理解的是，为了使操作面111露出，该安装腔的前侧敞口与操作孔122相对。
在对本实施例中的空调器100组装时，可以先将把手壳124安装在壳体123上，并将控制器110安装在控制器安装盒170的安装腔内，并将安装有控制器110的控制器安装盒170从前向后穿过操作孔122，将控制器安装盒170安装入容纳腔121中。或者，也可以先安装有将有控制器110的控制器安装盒170从后向前安装在端板1241上，再将把手壳124连接在壳体123上。采用第一种安装方式时，在需要将控制器110拆卸下时，可以不用对把手壳124进行拆卸，直接将控制器安装盒170从把手壳124上拆下，更加方便快捷。
在一些具体实例中，空调器100还包括盖板170，盖板160在覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置和露出操作面111的露出位置可旋转地连接在控制器安装盒170上。当无需对控制器110进行操作时，可以将盖板160旋转到覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置，防水防尘，需要操作时，可以将盖板160旋转至露出操作面111的露出位置，以便对操作面111进行操作。
在其他实施例中，盖板160还可以在覆盖操作面111的覆盖位置和露出操作面111的露出位置可旋转地连接在把手壳124上。
