Therefore, this application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the broadest scope of the principles and features disclosed in this application.

[0044] This application provides an indoor air conditioning unit to solve the problem of excessive noise caused by vibration transmission. The following description is in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0045] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes:

[0046] The air duct component 1 has a through first notch 111 and a first elastic cantilever portion 112 on its outer side. One end of the first elastic cantilever portion 112 is connected to the bottom wall of the first notch 111, and the first elastic cantilever portion 112 is spaced apart from the side wall of the first notch 111.

[0047] The structural component has a mounting groove 21 on its side for the outer side of the air supply duct component 1 to be inserted. The side wall of the mounting groove 21 is provided with a second notch 22, and the bottom wall of the second notch 22 is provided with a second elastic cantilever portion 23. The second elastic cantilever portion 23 is spaced apart from the side wall of the second notch 22.

[0048] The first elastic cantilever portion 112 and the second elastic cantilever portion 23 are snapped together.

[0049] It should be noted that the air duct component 1 refers to the structure that forms the air outlet channel of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. The first notch 111 extends through the air duct component 1 along its thickness direction, and the second notch 22 extends through the opening end of the mounting groove 21. The first elastic cantilever portion 112 can swing slightly within the first notch 111, and the second elastic cantilever portion 23 can swing slightly within the second notch 22. The structural component can refer to the panel 2 of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, or other components that have a connection relationship with the outer side of the air duct component 1.

[0050] It is understandable that the installation groove 21 is used to limit the installation of the air duct component 1, and the first elastic cantilever part 112 and the second elastic cantilever part 23 are further connected by a snap fastener. On the one hand, the structural component and the air duct component 1 are fixed. On the other hand, the first elastic cantilever part 112 can undergo elastic deformation relative to the air duct component 1, and the second elastic cantilever part 23 can also undergo elastic deformation relative to the structural component. This reduces the vibration energy transmitted to other parts of the structural component and the air duct component 1, avoids vibration collisions in other parts, and thus reduces the noise caused by vibration.

[0051] For example, the mounting groove 21 gradually decreases in size along the direction in which the outer edge of the air duct component 1 is embedded. This facilitates the alignment and insertion of the outer edge of the air duct component 1 into the mounting groove 21.

[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, the first elastic cantilever portion 112 is provided with a first slot 1121, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 as well as Figure 10 As shown, a second locking block 231 is provided on the side of the second elastic cantilever portion 23 facing the first elastic cantilever portion 112, as... Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the second locking block 231 is used to engage with the first locking slot 1121, and the space between the second locking block 231 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 21 is used for at least a portion of the first elastic cantilever portion 112 to engage.

[0053] It should be noted that a slot-like structure is formed between the second locking block 231 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 21, allowing at least a portion of the first elastic cantilever portion 112 to be engaged and fixed. Therefore, the first elastic cantilever portion 112 and the second elastic cantilever portion 23 are interlocked together. It is conceivable that both the first elastic cantilever portion 112 and the second elastic cantilever portion 23 have or are provided with a buckle-like structure and a slot-like structure.

[0054] It is understandable that the first slot 1121 is used to clamp and fix the second block 231, and the space between the second block 231 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 21 is used to clamp and fix at least a portion of the first elastic cantilever 112, thereby improving the connection reliability between the first elastic cantilever 112 and the second elastic cantilever 23.

[0055] For example, a second slot is formed between the second locking block 231 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 21, and a first locking block 1123 is defined between the end of the first elastic cantilever portion 112 away from the second locking block 231 and the side wall of the first slot 1121, and the first locking block 1123 is engaged in the second slot.

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the opening end of the first slot 1121 is provided with a first inclined surface 1122, and the second block 231 is provided with a second inclined surface 2311. The first inclined surface 1122 and the second inclined surface 2311 are in contact.

[0057] It is understandable that the combination of the first inclined surface 1122 and the second inclined surface 2311 can disperse the vibration direction, avoid vibration concentration, and further improve the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect.

[0058] For example, the second inclined surface 2311 is located on the side of the second locking block 231 facing the bottom wall of the mounting groove 21, and the angle between the second inclined surface 2311 and the horizontal plane is greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 70 degrees. Further, the second locking block 231 is provided with a third inclined surface, which is disposed opposite to the second inclined surface 2311. The third inclined surface facilitates the insertion of the first elastic cantilever portion 112 into the mounting groove 21 and its engagement with the second elastic cantilever portion 23.

[0059] In some specific embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second notch 22 is located inside the structural component, the side wall of the mounting groove 21 blocks the first notch 111, the depth of the second notch 22 is less than the depth of the mounting groove 21, and the height of the second elastic cantilever 23 is less than the depth of the second notch 22.

[0060] It is understandable that the second notch 22 is placed on the inside of the structural component to ensure the aesthetic appearance of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 as well as Figure 12 As shown, the structural component includes a panel 2, which has an air outlet 24, and at least one side wall of the air outlet 24 has a mounting groove 21.

[0062] It should be noted that panel 2 refers to at least a portion of the structure that forms the appearance of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0063] It is understandable that by providing the mounting groove 21 on the panel 2, the vibration transmitted from the air duct component 1 to the panel 2 is buffered.

[0064] For example, the upper or lower side wall of the air outlet 24 may be provided with a mounting groove 21. If the indoor unit of the air conditioner can be installed by table mounting or ceiling mounting, and if the indoor unit of the air conditioner is installed by table mounting with the air outlet 24 facing upward, then one side wall of the air outlet 24 may be provided with a mounting groove 21.

[0065] Specifically, panel 2 is manufactured using injection molding, and duct component 1 is made of plastic. Compared to the sheet metal structure used in related technologies, this reduces vibration and noise. Furthermore, in related technologies, panels with sheet metal structures are typically bonded to a plastic drip tray before being fixed to other components with screws. This not only easily generates noise but also involves complex and costly production and assembly processes. Injection molding, however, allows for the simultaneous manufacture of panel 2 and drip tray 5, with an insulation layer, such as sponge or an air gap, between them. This simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces costs, and also prevents condensation. It should be noted that drip tray 5 is the component used to collect condensate from the heat exchanger in the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0066] Furthermore, the second notch 22 provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 21 is located on the inner side of the panel 2 to ensure the aesthetic appearance of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are two air duct components 1 arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, namely a first side plate 11 and a second side plate 12. The outer side of the first side plate 11 is used to embed into the mounting groove 21.

[0068] A sealing groove 121 is provided on the outer side of the second side plate 12, and at least a portion of the inner end of the air outlet 24 is used to embed into the sealing groove 121.

[0069] It should be noted that the air duct component 1 has an outer side and an inner side, with the outer side close to the air outlet 24 and the inner side close to the fan 3 of the indoor air conditioning unit. In some wall-mounted indoor air conditioning units, the air outlet 24 is located on the front side, and the two air duct components 1 are arranged vertically opposite each other and spaced apart. The upper air duct component 1 can be connected to the panel 2, or the lower air duct component 1 can be connected to the panel 2.

[0070] Understandably, the sealing groove 121 is used to improve the sealing of the connection between the air duct component 1 and the panel 2, preventing the cold air from the air outlet 24 from flowing back into the interior of the air conditioner indoor unit and causing condensation. In addition, in this application, the panel 2 is made of plastic, which has a slower heat conduction speed and better heat insulation effect than sheet metal, thus reducing the generation of condensation on the surface of the panel 2.

[0071] For example, the lower air duct component 1 is embedded in the mounting groove 21, the lower side wall of the air outlet 24 is provided with the mounting groove 21, and the outer side of the upper air duct component 1 is provided with a sealing groove 121. Under the action of gravity, the air duct component 1 is more easily aligned and embedded in the mounting groove 21, and is more stably fixed in the mounting groove 21 for a longer period of time compared to the mounting groove 21 being provided on the upper side wall of the air outlet 24.

[0072] Furthermore, the upper air duct component 1 bends outward and upward to form an L-shaped structure, which facilitates the installation of the sealing groove 121.

[0073] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 as well as Figure 13 As shown, a first sealing part 25 is provided on the inner side of the panel 2. The first sealing part 25 is used to embed into the sealing groove 121. The sealing groove 121 passes through the side of the second side plate 12 facing the first side plate 11.

[0074] It should be noted that the sealing groove 121 has openings in two adjacent directions.

[0075] It is understood that the structure of the sealing groove 121 defined in this embodiment reduces the installation difficulty of the panel 2 and facilitates the synchronous assembly of the panel 2 with the two air duct components 1.

[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 13 As shown, a second sealing part 26 is provided protrudingly on the inner side of the panel 2. The second sealing part 26 is spaced apart from the first sealing part 25. At least a portion of the second side plate 12 is connected between the first sealing part 25 and the second sealing part 26.

[0077] It is understandable that the sealing performance is further improved by the space between the first sealing part 25 and the second sealing part 26, and a multi-seal is formed together with the sealing groove 121.

[0078] For example, the upper air duct component 1 is bent outward and upward to form an L-shaped structure, and the second sealing part 26 fits against the bent edge.

[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 13 As shown, the first sealing part 25 is provided with a sealing slope 251. The angle between the sealing slope 251 and the bottom wall of the sealing groove 121 is not equal to 90 degrees. The sealing slope 251 fits against the side wall of the sealing groove 121.

[0080] It should be noted that the bottom wall of the sealing groove 121 is directly opposite the panel 2.

[0081] It is understood that by providing the sealing bevel 251, it is easier to fit tightly with the first sealing part 25, reducing assembly gaps. For example, the included angle between the sealing bevel 251 and the bottom wall of the sealing groove 121 is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees.

[0082] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 as well as Figure 7 As shown, multiple first notches 111 and multiple first elastic cantilever portions 112 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, and multiple second notches 22 and multiple second elastic cantilever portions 23 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, with multiple first elastic cantilever portions 112 corresponding to multiple second elastic cantilever portions 23.

[0083] It is understood that the connection reliability between the duct component 1 and the structural component is improved by using multiple first elastic cantilever portions 112 and multiple second elastic cantilever portions 23. For example, multiple first notches 111 and multiple first elastic cantilever portions 112 are spaced apart along the length direction of the duct component 1, and multiple second notches 22 and multiple second elastic cantilever portions 23 are spaced apart along the length direction of the structural component.

[0084] This application also provides an air conditioner, which includes the above-mentioned indoor unit. The specific structure of the indoor unit is as described in the above embodiments. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0085] In some embodiments, the air conditioner further includes an outdoor unit, and the indoor unit further includes a fan 3, a heat exchanger 4, and a drip tray 5.

[0086] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0087] The air conditioning indoor unit and air conditioner provided in the embodiments of this application have been described in detail above.
