[0041] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the present disclosure provides an anti-condensation structure, which includes:

[0042] A frame assembly 100, wherein the frame assembly 100 is disposed at a main air outlet 200 of an air outlet component (preferably an air conditioner indoor unit, but may also be other components that may generate condensation, such as a cooling fan, etc.), and the frame assembly 100 is disposed around the main air outlet 200 (i.e., disposed around the air conditioner outlet), and the frame assembly 100 also includes an auxiliary air inlet 10 and an auxiliary air outlet 20, wherein the auxiliary air inlet 10 can inhale indoor air from around the frame assembly 100, and blow it out from the auxiliary air outlet 20 to form a wind curtain.

[0043] The present invention provides a frame assembly around the main air outlet, and the frame assembly can draw in air from the surrounding indoor room and blow out wind from the auxiliary air outlet to form an air curtain, so that the cold air blown out of the main air outlet can only contact the air outlet structural parts after passing through the air curtain. Since the ambient air temperature must be higher than the temperature of the cold air blown out of the refrigeration air duct, the temperature of the air flow is increased after mixing, so that the structure around the air outlet on the inner side of the air-conditioning room will not be cooled down to below the dew point temperature by the cold air, thereby avoiding the formation of condensation water; and the formation of the wind curtain can effectively block the cold air blown out of the main air outlet, and further effectively prevent the cold air from blowing onto the components around the main air outlet to avoid the generation of condensation; the present invention does not need to set up a heating device, does not increase the indoor heat, and utilizes the phenomenon that the ambient air is higher than the refrigeration outlet temperature, so that the structural parts around the main air outlet are not cooled down by the cold air, and condensation is prevented on the structure around the main air outlet, thereby achieving a stable anti-condensation effect, so as to solve the problem of condensation water at the existing air outlet.

[0044] The reason why condensation occurs at the indoor air outlet of the air conditioner is that the cold air blown out by the cooling air duct cools the structure around the main air outlet. When the temperature is lower than the dew point temperature of the ambient air, the ambient air is cooled and condensation forms around the main air outlet. The principle to solve this problem is to prevent the temperature of the structure at the main air outlet from being cooled below the dew point temperature.

[0045] The specific embodiment of the present disclosure is that an anti-condensation air duct (channel 13 in the frame assembly) is nested outside the main air outlet of the indoor refrigeration air duct of the air conditioner, and there are two independent anti-condensation motors and centrifugal fan blades (fan 4) in the air duct. The air outlet direction is consistent with the air outlet direction of the refrigeration air duct, but in order to avoid affecting the refrigeration air supply range, the air outlet direction of the anti-condensation air duct can be deflected outward within 0-90° than the air outlet direction of the refrigeration air duct. When the cooling or dehumidification mode is turned on, the controller first detects the indoor ambient temperature and humidity; turns on / off the anti-condensation fan according to the indoor ambient temperature and humidity; the user can set the opening conditions independently; the speed of the anti-condensation fan becomes faster or slower corresponding to the wind speed in the cooling or dehumidification mode.

[0046] In some embodiments, the auxiliary air outlet 20 discharges air in the same direction as the air outlet direction of the main air outlet, or discharges air in a direction that is inclined at an angle to the air outlet direction of the main air outlet. The auxiliary air outlet that discharges air in the direction that is inclined at an angle to the air outlet direction of the main air outlet is an outward-expanding air outlet structure, and the outward-expanding air outlet structure, that is, the projection of the airflow blown out from the auxiliary air outlet 20 in the plane where the main air outlet 200 is located, is located on the periphery of the main air outlet 200. This is a further preferred structural form of the auxiliary air outlet disclosed in the present invention, which can effectively form an annular wind curtain (forming a ring around the top, bottom, left and right) by discharging air in the same direction as the air outlet direction of the main air outlet, and can effectively prevent the cold air blown out of the main air outlet from causing condensation on the surrounding parts; and by discharging air in an outward-expanding manner through the auxiliary air outlet, it can not only prevent condensation but also reduce the influence of the wind curtain on the cold air outlet area, thereby increasing the air outlet range of the cold air blown out of the main air outlet and avoiding affecting the indoor cooling effect.

[0047] In some embodiments, the anti-condensation structure also includes a fan 4, the frame assembly 100 includes an intermediate frame 1, the intermediate frame 1 includes an outer frame 11 located at the outer periphery and an inner frame 12 located at the inner periphery, the auxiliary air inlet 10 is arranged on the outer frame 11, and a channel 13 is formed between the outer frame 11 and the inner frame 12, the fan 4 is arranged in the channel 13, and the fan 4 can inhale air from the outside through the auxiliary air inlet 10 and blow it into the channel 13.

[0048] This is the preferred structural form of the anti-condensation structure disclosed in the present invention. Through the structure of the middle frame and the fan, the fan is arranged in the air duct between the inner and outer frames of the middle frame, so that the auxiliary air inlet is arranged on the outer frame. The fan is opposite to the auxiliary air inlet to suck the wind around the outer frame from the auxiliary air inlet into the channel, and finally achieves the effect of conveying wind in a specific direction indoors to form a wind curtain.

[0049] In some embodiments, the inner frame 12 includes a guide port 14, a guide channel 15 and the auxiliary air outlet 20, the guide port 14 is opened on the outer peripheral wall of the inner frame 12, one end of the guide port 14 is connected to the channel 13, and the other end extends toward the interior of the inner frame 12; the inner frame 12 includes an inner wall and an outer wall, the guide channel 15 is arranged between the inner wall and the outer wall (that is, the guide channel is arranged inside the inner frame's own material), one end of the guide channel 15 can be connected to the guide port 14, and the other end extends to the auxiliary air outlet 20 for air discharge.

[0050] This is a further preferred structural form of the inner frame disclosed in the present invention. The guide port is arranged on the outer wall of the inner frame, which can effectively introduce airflow from the air duct, and the guide channel arranged inside the inner frame can guide the airflow introduced by the guide port to the auxiliary air outlet for discharge, thereby achieving an effective change in the direction of the airflow, so that the air is discharged from the front of the inner frame in a horizontal direction or a horizontal outward direction, forming a wind curtain, and preventing or reducing the generation of condensation.

[0051] Further preferably, the other end of the guide port extends along the thickness direction of the inner frame 12 .

[0052] When the indoor ambient temperature and humidity reach the set opening requirements, the anti-condensation motor 41 drives the centrifugal fan blades (fan 4) to rotate, and the ambient air is sucked in through the circular air inlet grille 31 of the air inlet surface frame (second frame 3), and blown into the circular air duct (i.e., channel 13) of the anti-condensation middle frame (middle frame 1). There are several notches (i.e., guide ports 14) on the inner wall of the middle frame. The air enters the flat trumpet-shaped guide channel 15 through the notches and then blows out. All the flat trumpets are connected to form a closed circular air outlet. The anti-condensation air duct is outside the refrigeration air duct, and the wind it blows out forms an annular wind curtain at the air outlet. The edge of the cold air blown out of the refrigeration air duct blows on the wind curtain. The two winds are mixed on the contact surface before blowing to the structural parts around the main air outlet. Since the independent air duct blows out ambient air, its temperature must be higher than the cold air blown out of the refrigeration air duct after being cooled by the evaporator. Therefore, the surrounding structures of the main air outlet are exposed to the mixed air after the ambient air blown out of the independent air duct is heated up. It is not directly cooled by the cold air of the refrigeration air duct and is always kept above the dew point temperature, thus achieving a very stable anti-condensation effect, and no matter how the indoor ambient temperature changes, it will not affect the result. The faster the speed of the air curtain and the larger the air volume, the less likely the cold air will cool the main air outlet structure, and the better the anti-condensation effect.

[0053] In some embodiments, the inner frame includes an inner frame front and an inner frame back, the inner frame back is opposite to the air outlet component, the inner frame front and the inner frame back are arranged opposite to each other, and the auxiliary air outlet 20 is arranged on the front of the inner frame 12. The present disclosure can discharge air from the front of the inner frame in a horizontal direction or a horizontal outward expansion direction by arranging the auxiliary air outlet on the front of the inner frame to form a wind curtain, thereby preventing or reducing the generation of condensation.

[0054] In some embodiments, the frame assembly 100 further includes a first frame 2, which is buckled on the back surface of the middle frame 1. The back surface of the middle frame 1 faces the air outlet component. The middle frame 1 further includes a connecting plate 16. The outer frame 11 and the inner frame 12 are connected by the connecting plate 16. The connecting plate 16, the inner frame 12, the outer frame 11 and the first frame 2 enclose the sealed channel 13.

[0055] This is a further preferred structural form of the frame assembly of the present disclosure. The first frame can cover the air duct part on the back surface of the middle frame, so as to effectively seal the air duct, making the air duct sealed. The air flow in the air duct can only enter the diversion channel through the diversion opening on the inner frame and be discharged from the auxiliary air outlet, reducing the flow area of the air flow, thereby increasing the flow velocity and strengthening the velocity of the air flow blown out from the auxiliary air outlet. The formed air curtain has a better guiding and driving effect, preventing the cold air blown out from the main air outlet from reaching the components around the main air outlet and causing condensation.

[0056] In some embodiments, the frame assembly 100 further includes a second frame 3, which is buckled on the front and side surfaces of the middle frame 1. The front surface of the middle frame 1 faces the room and is opposite to the direction facing the air outlet component. The front surface of the second frame 3 covers the connecting plate 16, and the side surface of the second frame 3 covers the side surface of the middle frame 1. An air inlet grille 31 is further provided on the side surface of the second frame 3, and the air inlet grille 31 is arranged opposite to the auxiliary air inlet 10.

[0057] This is a further preferred structural form of the frame assembly of the present disclosure. The second frame can cover the connecting plate on the front surface of the middle frame, improving the appearance. And the side surface of the second frame is buckled and covered on the side surface of the middle frame. The air inlet grille can effectively filter the incoming air flow.

[0058] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the middle frame 1 in the vertical direction is in a "hui" shape, and the enclosed channel 13 is in a "kou" shape. This is a preferred structural form of the middle frame of the present disclosure, and the "hui" shape effectively forms a loop-shaped air duct (in a "kou" shape).

[0059] In some embodiments, there are two fans 4, one of which is arranged in the channel 13 on one side in the horizontal direction, and the other is arranged in the channel 13 on the other side in the horizontal direction; there are also two auxiliary air inlets 10, one of which is arranged on the outer frame 11 on one side in the horizontal direction and opposite to one of the fans 4, and the other is arranged on the outer frame 11 on the other side in the horizontal direction and opposite to the other fan 4; and / or, the fan 4 is a centrifugal fan. This is the preferred number and setting form of the fans disclosed in the present invention, that is, by having two fans located on both sides, airflow can be introduced into the air duct from both sides, and then blown out from the auxiliary air outlet through the guide port and the guide channel; the centrifugal fan can effectively realize the effect of taking in air from the circumferential direction and blowing the wind into the channel from the radial direction.

[0060] In some embodiments, the air flow area in the guide channel 15 gradually increases in the flow direction of the air flow (in a bell-mouth shape, see Figure 6 ); and / or, there is at least one guide port 14, and there is also at least one guide channel 15, which is arranged one-to-one with the guide port 14. The present disclosure can also effectively increase the air outlet area by setting the structure of the guide channel and gradually increasing the flow area of ​​the guide channel along the airflow direction, thereby increasing the formation range of the wind curtain, and finally forming an almost complete wind curtain in all directions, further improving the warming effect of the cold air blown out of the main air outlet, and improving the blocking effect on the cold air blown out of the main air outlet, and finally improving the anti-condensation effect of the components around the main air outlet. The present disclosure can also further increase the air outlet area through multiple guide ports and multiple guide channels, so as to increase the air outlet area to the maximum extent and further improve the anti-condensation effect.
