[0031] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments, but is not limited to the contents of the description.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, a heat exchanger assembly is disclosed, including a heat exchanger 10, two filters 20 and a transmission mechanism 30, the heat exchanger 10 forms a windward side and a leeward side in the air duct; the two filters are respectively arranged on the windward side and the leeward side of the heat exchanger 10; the filter 20 has an unfolded state and a retracted state; the two filters 20 are both connected to the same transmission mechanism 30, and the transmission mechanism 30 drives the two filters 20 to switch between the unfolded state and the retracted state respectively, and one of the two filters 20 is kept in the unfolded state and the other in the retracted state. The heat exchanger assembly of the present invention arranges filters on the windward side and the leeward side of the heat exchanger 10 respectively, and connects the two filters to the same transmission mechanism 30, so that after the wind direction changes, the two filters can be switched at the same time through the transmission structure. Since one of the two filters 20 is maintained in the expanded state and the other is maintained in the retracted state, after the switching state, one filter 20 is still in the expanded state and the other is still in the retracted state, thereby ensuring that each filter only filters the airflow in a single direction without affecting the normal operation of the heat exchanger 10, thereby preventing room pollution, and is very convenient to use.

[0033] In the above embodiment, the transmission mechanism 30 includes a transmission rope 31 and a driving wheel 32. The transmission rope 31 forms a transmission closed loop, and the filter screens 20 are all connected to the transmission rope 31. The transmission rope 31 is installed on the driving wheel 32, and the driving wheel 32 drives the transmission rope 31 to rotate in a closed loop. The heat exchanger assembly of the present invention can drive the transmission rope 31 to rotate by providing the driving wheel 32, thereby driving the filter screen 20 to switch states through the transmission rope 31.

[0034] In the above embodiment, the transmission rope 31 includes two opposite straight segments 311, and the two filters 20 correspond to the straight segments 311 one by one, and the two filters 20 are respectively connected to the corresponding straight segments 311; the driving wheel 32 drives the transmission rope 31 to rotate, and the transmission rope 31 drives the two filters 20 to switch between the unfolded state and the retracted state during the rotation process. The heat exchanger assembly of the present invention connects the two filters 20 to the corresponding straight segments 311 respectively, and since the transmission rope 31 forms a transmission closed loop, the moving directions of the two straight segments 311 are always opposite, so that the two filters 20 can be unfolded while the other is retracted, or one is retracted while the other is opened, which is more convenient to use and saves more space.

[0035] In the above embodiment, the filter screen 20 has a movable end and a fixed end, the movable end of the filter screen 20 is fixedly connected to the transmission rope 31, and the fixed end of the filter screen 20 is fixed relative to the heat exchanger 10; when the motor 40 drives the driving wheel 32 to rotate forward and reverse, the driving wheel 32 drives the transmission rope 31 to move back and forth through the forward and reverse rotation, and the transmission rope 31 drives the movable end of the filter screen 20 away from or close to the fixed end of the filter screen 20 during the reciprocating movement. The heat exchanger assembly of the present invention fixes the movable end of the filter screen 20 on the transmission rope 31, and fixes the position of the fixed end relative to the heat exchanger 10, so that the movable end can be driven to move by the transmission rope 31, thereby realizing the deployment and folding of the filter screen 20. Specifically, the fixed end can be fixed to the heat exchanger 10 by a bracket, and the driving wheel 32 can rotate forward and backward. While the driving wheel 32 rotates forward and backward, it also drives the transmission rope 31 to move back and forth in a sawing manner. During the reciprocating movement, the transmission rope 31 also drives the moving end of the filter 20 away from or close to the fixed end of the filter 20, thereby switching the filter 20 between the expanded state and the retracted state.

[0038] In the above embodiment, the filter 20 has a movable end and a fixed end, the slider 22 at the movable end is fixedly connected to the transmission rope 31, and the sub-filter 21 at the fixed end is fixed relative to the heat exchanger 10. The heat exchanger assembly of the present invention fixes the sub-filter 21 at the fixed end relative to the heat exchanger 10 by fixing the slider 22 at the movable end to the transmission rope 31. When the transmission rope 31 moves forward, the slider 22 at the movable end is driven to move in a direction away from the fixed end, and all the sub-filters 21 are in the same plane to form a complete filtering surface, so that the filter 20 is in an unfolded state; when the transmission rope 31 moves in the reverse direction, the slider 22 at the movable end is driven to move in a direction close to the fixed end, and all the sub-filters 21 are stacked together and moved to the edge of the heat exchanger 10. At this time, the filter 20 is in a retracted state, thereby preventing the dust on the sub-filter 21 from being blown away by the airflow, thereby preventing the indoor air from being polluted.

The filter 20 is movably arranged in the air duct, and the filter 20 has an expanded state and a retracted state; there are two filters 20, and the two filters 20 are respectively expanded in different air outlet modes so that the two filters 20 can separately filter the airflows in different directions; the two filters 20 are both connected to the same transmission mechanism 30, and the transmission mechanism 30 drives the two filters 20 to switch between the expanded state and the retracted state respectively, and one of the two filters 20 is kept in the expanded state and the other in the retracted state to correspond to different air outlet modes. The air conditioner of the present invention is provided with two filters 20, and the two filters can be deployed in different air outlet modes, so that the two filters 20 can filter airflows in different directions separately; when the air outlet mode is switched, the transmission mechanism 30 can drive the two filters 20 to switch between the deployed state and the retracted state, so that the two filters 20 always keep one in the deployed state and the other in the retracted state to correspond to different air outlet modes. The air conditioner of the present invention is provided with two filters 20 corresponding to two air outlet modes, so that dust in the filter can be prevented from being blown out after the air outlet mode is changed, polluting the indoor air, and effectively solving the problem of positive and reverse air inlet filtration.

[0042] In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 30 includes a transmission rope 31 and a driving wheel 32.

The transmission rope 31 is installed on the driving wheel 32, and the driving wheel 32 drives the transmission rope 31 to rotate in a closed loop.

The air conditioner of the present invention connects the two filters 20 to the corresponding straight segments 311 respectively, and since the transmission rope 31 forms a transmission closed loop, the moving directions of the two straight segments 311 are always opposite, so that the two filters 20 can be unfolded while the other is retracted, or one is retracted while the other is opened, which is more convenient to use and saves more space.

[0044] In this embodiment, the filter 20 has a movable end and a fixed end, the movable end of the filter 20 is fixedly connected to the transmission rope 31, and the fixed end of the filter 20 is fixed relative to the air duct; the motor 40 drives the driving wheel 32 to rotate forward and reversely, and the driving wheel 32 drives the transmission rope 31 to move back and forth through the forward and reverse rotation, and the transmission rope 31 drives the movable end of the filter 20 away from or close to the fixed end of the filter 20 during the reciprocating movement. The air conditioner of the present invention fixes the movable end of the filter 20 on the transmission rope 31, and fixes the position of the fixed end relative to the air duct, so that the movable end can be driven to move by the transmission rope 31, thereby realizing the unfolding and folding of the filter 20. Specifically, the fixed end can be fixed to the air duct by a bracket, and the driving wheel 32 can rotate forward and backward. While the driving wheel 32 rotates forward and backward, it also drives the transmission rope 31 to move back and forth in a sawing manner. During the reciprocating movement, the transmission rope 31 also drives the moving end of the filter 20 away from or close to the fixed end of the filter 20, thereby switching the filter 20 between the expanded state and the retracted state.
