Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of air conditioners, for example, it relates to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] With the industrial development and the increasing number of automobiles in recent years, more and more pollutants are emitted into the atmosphere. Common air pollutants include dust / respirable particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, etc. These air pollutants will inevitably penetrate into the living environment of residents, affecting the indoor air quality and posing a threat to the health of residents. Therefore, how to improve indoor air quality has gradually become the focus of attention in residents' living health. Products such as air purifiers and air conditioners with purification functions are also purchased by more and more consumers. Conventional purification products generally use filter components such as filters and filter cartridges to purify the air. In recent years, a water purification module that uses the water washing method for air purification has also emerged in related technologies. It uses the sprayed water to adsorb pollutants in the flowing air, thereby achieving the effect of filtering and purifying the air.

[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that at least the following problems exist in related technologies:

[0004] Generally, the water used for spraying is indispensable for the water purification module to achieve the purification function. Therefore, existing water purification modules mostly use the method of adding water to the water storage tank regularly to meet the water demand. This requires users to frequently replenish and add water to the water storage tank, increasing the operation burden on users. Summary of the Invention

[0071] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0072] Combined with Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a water purification module, including an air delivery component and a water delivery component.

[0073] The air delivery component and the water delivery component define a common purification chamber 100, and are provided with an air inlet 103 and an air outlet passage 732. Both the air inlet 103 and the air outlet passage 732 are in communication with the purification chamber 100, and the air is purified by means of water washing in the purification chamber 100. Here, for the convenience of explaining the product structure of this embodiment, the mating structures of the components related to the purification chamber 100 with the air delivery component and the mating structures of the components related to the water delivery component are respectively described by way of example.

[0074] In some alternative embodiments, the air delivery component includes: an air inlet duct, arranged at the lower part of the water purification module and admitting air from the circumferential direction; a purification air duct, in communication with the air inlet duct, which is arranged to supply air in the vertical direction and wash and purify the air flow; an air outlet duct, in communication with the purification air duct, which is arranged to discharge the purified air flow.

[0075] By adopting the above-mentioned embodiments, the air inlet air duct, the purified air duct, and the air outlet air duct are sequentially arranged from bottom to top to realize the vertical air supply mode. After the air flow is purified by water washing in the purified air duct, the water droplets carried by the air flow move downward under the action of gravity and are separated from the upward flowing air flow, which helps to reduce the content of water droplets in the air flow and improve the air quality delivered to the indoor environment.

[0076] Combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the water purification module includes a first cylinder body 150 that encloses the air inlet air duct, and an air inlet 103 is provided on the side wall of the first cylinder body 150; the second cylinder body 110 of the purification chamber 100 is arranged above the first cylinder body 150 and is communicated with the first cylinder body 150. Combined with Figure 2 As shown. In this way, the air supply mode of side air inlet and vertical air supply is realized through the first cylinder body 150 and the second cylinder body 110, which is convenient for the air flow to be washed and purified in the second cylinder body 110.

[0077] In this embodiment, the purification chamber 100 serves as the purified air duct of the air delivery assembly.

[0078] Combined with Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the purification chamber 100 includes: a second cylinder body 110 provided with a first air inlet 101, including a second hollow part 111 communicated with the first air inlet 101; a third cylinder body 120 arranged above the second cylinder body 110 and having a first air outlet 102 at the top, including a third hollow part 121 communicated with the first air outlet 102; a second connecting part 140 extending outward from the side wall of the second cylinder body 110 to the side wall of the third cylinder body 120 to connect the second cylinder body 110 and the third cylinder body 120; wherein, an installation hole 104 for cooperating with the spraying part of the water delivery assembly is provided on the side wall of the second cylinder body 110.

[0079] Here, the purification chamber 100 is communicated with the air inlet 103 of the first cylinder body 150 through the first air inlet 101, and is communicated with the air outlet channel through the first air outlet 102.

[0080] By adopting the embodiments of the present disclosure, the air flow enters the third cylinder body 120 through the second cylinder body 110 and is washed and purified in the second cylinder body 110. Based on the second connecting part 140 extending outward from the side wall of the second cylinder body 110 to the side wall of the third cylinder body 120 to connect the second cylinder body 110 and the third cylinder body 120, thus, the coverage area of the water curtain is larger than the cross-sectional area of the air flow flowing from the second cylinder body 110 to the third cylinder body 120, effectively improving the coverage range of the water curtain for purifying the air flow and improving the purification effect.

[0081] Airflow enters the second hollow part 111 from the first air inlet 101 of the second cylinder 110, and vertically supplies air in the second hollow part 111 and the third hollow part 121. For the water washing and purification of the airflow, after the water spray parts of the second cylinder 110 wash and purify the airflow, the water droplets carried by the airflow move downward under the action of gravity, so as to separate from the upward flowing airflow, which helps to reduce the water droplet content in the airflow and improve the air quality delivered to the indoor environment.

[0082] The second connection part 140 extends outward from the side wall of the second cylinder 110 to the side wall of the third cylinder 120. By connecting the second cylinder 110 and the third cylinder 120, it can be obtained that the ventilation area of the third cylinder 120 is larger than that of the second cylinder 110. In this way, it is convenient to set an air outlet cover and a waterproof cover at the first air outlet 102 of the third cylinder 120 to reduce the impact force of the air outlet airflow in the second hollow part 111 on the air outlet cover; secondly, it helps to reduce the water droplets carried by the airflow through the air outlet cover and the waterproof cover and improve the air quality after purification.

[0083] Optionally, the second cylinder 110 includes: a first connection part 130 that extends inward from the side wall of the second cylinder 110 and surrounds to form the first air inlet 101 of the second cylinder 110. In this way, it helps to achieve the full coverage of the intake airflow by the water curtain.

[0084] It can be obtained that the first connection part 130 extends inward from the side wall of the second cylinder 110 and surrounds to form the first air inlet 101 of the second cylinder 110. The ventilation area of the second hollow part 111 of the second cylinder 110 is larger than that of the first air inlet 101. Thus, when the water spray parts are arranged on the side wall of the second cylinder 110, it helps to achieve the full coverage of the intake airflow in the second cylinder 110 by the water curtain in the second cylinder 110.

[0085] When the water curtain formed by the water spray parts washes and purifies the airflow passing through, the water droplets in the water curtain splash outward to the side wall of the second cylinder 110 and the first connection part 130 under the impact of the airflow, and the first connection part 130 can recover the splashed water droplets.

[0086] Optionally, part or all of the upper surface of the first connection part 130 is inclined. In this way, it helps the water droplets splashing onto the second cylinder 110 and the first connection part 130 to flow downward, facilitating the collection and recovery of dirty water. For example, when part of the upper surface of the first connection part 130 is inclined, the dirty water can be collected in the non-inclined part of the upper surface of the first connection part 130, and the first connection part 130 can also play a role in collecting a certain amount of dirty water; when the entire upper surface of the first connection part 130 is inclined, the dirty water directly flows into the device for dirty water recovery, and no dirty water is retained and collected on the upper surface of the first connection part 130.

[0087] Optionally, in combination Figure 7 andFigure 8 As shown, the first connection part 130 includes: a converging section 131 that surrounds the first air inlet 101 of the second cylinder 110; a reflux section 132 that surrounds the converging section 131 and is surrounded by the second cylinder 110; wherein, the upper surface of the reflux section 132 slopes downward from one side of the second cylinder 110 to one side of the converging section 131. In this way, the splashed water droplets are converged and drained to the converging section 131 by the reflux section 132, and the dirty water is collected by the converging section 131. In the case where the discharge is not timely, a certain amount of dirty water can be retained.

[0088] Optionally, the upper surface of the reflux section 132 at the connection with the converging section 131 is higher than or equal to the upper surface of the converging section 131. In this way, it helps to drain and converge the dirty water. For example, when the upper surface of the reflux section 132 at the connection with the converging section 131 is higher than the upper surface of the converging section 131, the converging section 131 will not occupy the space of the reflux section 132 when retaining a certain amount of dirty water; when the upper surface of the reflux section 132 at the connection with the converging section 131 is equal to the upper surface of the converging section 131, that is, the upper surface of the reflux section 132 at the connection with the converging section 131 and the upper surface of the converging section 131 are on the same plane, in this way, it helps to avoid the generation of water flow noise when the dirty water flows from the reflux section 132 to the converging section 131.

[0089] Optionally, the reflux section 132 of the first connection part 130 includes a plurality of diversion grooves 133 arranged in a row; wherein, the bottom surface of the diversion groove 133 is higher than or equal to the upper surface of the converging section 131. In this way, the splashed water droplets can be converged and drained to the converging section 131 through the diversion grooves 133. For example, when the bottom surface of the diversion groove 133 is higher than the upper surface of the converging section 131, the converging section 131 will not occupy the space of the reflux section 132 when retaining a certain amount of dirty water; when the bottom surface of the diversion groove 133 is equal to the upper surface of the converging section 131, that is, the bottom surface of the diversion groove 133 and the upper surface of the converging section 131 are on the same plane, in this way, it helps to avoid the generation of water flow noise when the dirty water flows from the diversion groove 133 to the converging section 131.

[0090] Optionally, the diversion groove 133 slopes downward from one side of the second cylinder 110 to one side of the converging section 131. In this way, it helps to converge and drain the splashed water droplets.

[0091] Optionally, the plurality of diversion grooves 133 extend radially and are spaced circumferentially, and all are arranged towards the axis of the first connection part 130. In this way, the splashed water droplets are converged and drained through the diversion grooves 133.

[0092] Optionally, the top end of the diversion groove 133 is close to or in contact with the side wall of the second cylinder 110. In this way, when the top end of the diversion groove 133 contacts the side wall of the second cylinder 110, the water droplets on the side wall of the second cylinder 110 can be better converged and drained; when the top end of the diversion groove 133 is close to the side wall of the second cylinder 110, it is convenient to connect the first connection part 130 to the second cylinder 110, preventing cracks from occurring at the connection due to the accumulation of dirty water in the gap.

[0093] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the water purification module further includes a waterproof cover 600 and / or an air outlet cover 700. The waterproof cover 600 and the air outlet cover 700 are disposed on the first air outlet 102. A plurality of zigzag channels 632 are provided on the waterproof cover 600, and the plurality of zigzag channels 632 are arranged in a ring shape; a plurality of air outlet channels 732 are provided on the air outlet cover 700, and the plurality of air outlet channels 732 are arranged in a ring shape. Through the arrangement of the zigzag channels 632, the waterproof cover 600 can intercept some of the water vapor or water molecule clusters carried in the purified air and flow back into the purification chamber 100 under the action of gravity, thereby effectively reducing the water content in the outflowing air flow. The air outlet cover 700 guides the purified air flowing out of the purification chamber 100 and reduces the flow rate of the purified air, thereby achieving a more stable air outlet effect.

[0094] Optionally, the air outlet cover 700 is on the lower side and the waterproof cover 600 is on the upper side.

[0095] Figure 11 is a schematic structural view of the waterproof cover for the water purification module provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 12 is a cross-sectional view of the waterproof cover for the water purification module provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 13 is provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure Figure 12 partial enlarged view of.

[0096] In combination with Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a waterproof cover for a water purification module, including a first central cover plate 610, a first annular cover plate 620, and a first annular connection part 630. The first annular cover plate 620 is coaxial with the first central cover plate 610; the first annular connection part 630 connects the first central cover plate 610 and the first annular cover plate 620 and includes a plurality of inclined gratings 631 arranged in a row, and a zigzag channel 632 is formed between adjacent inclined gratings 631.

[0097] By using the waterproof cover for the water purification module provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, a zigzag channel is formed between adjacent inclined grilles connecting the first central cover plate and the first annular cover plate. Water vapor or water molecule clusters contained in the air flow passing through this channel are intercepted during the flowing process and flow downward along the grille wall under the action of gravity, thereby effectively reducing the amount of liquid droplets in the air flow flowing out through the waterproof cover.

[0098] Figure 14 is a schematic structural diagram of the air outlet cover for the water purification module provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. Combining Figure 14 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide an air outlet cover for a water purification module, including a second central cover plate 710, a second annular cover plate 720, and a second annular connection part 730. The second annular cover plate 720 is coaxially arranged with the second central cover plate 710; the second annular connection part 730 connects the second central cover plate 710 and the second annular cover plate 720 and includes a plurality of air outlets arranged circumferentially; a grille 731 is provided at the air outlet; an air outlet channel 732 is formed between adjacent grilles 731.

[0099] Optionally, the second annular connection part 730 is provided with a plurality of air outlets arranged circumferentially, and a plurality of grilles 731 are provided at the air outlets, and an air outlet channel is formed between adjacent grilles 731. In this way, the air can flow smoothly from one side of the air outlet cover to the other side along the air outlet channel 732.

[0100] By using the air outlet cover for the water purification module provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the air blown out along the purification cavity can be dispersed through the grille provided at the air outlet, and the air flow rate can be effectively reduced, thereby achieving a more stable air outlet effect.

[0101] In some embodiments, the second annular connection part 730 is inclined upward from one side of the second annular cover plate 720 to one side of the second central cover plate 710. An included angle is formed between the second annular connection part 730 and the second central cover plate 710. In this way, the air blown out along the purification cavity can be dispersed and the direction of the air flow can be changed, effectively reducing the air flow rate and achieving a stable air outlet effect.

[0102] Optionally, combining Figure 4 , Figure 15 and Figure 16As shown in the figure, the air outlet air path includes: a fan housing 510, which is disposed above the second cylinder 110 and communicated with the second cylinder 110, and an air outlet is provided on the side wall; a centrifugal fan 550, which is disposed in the fan housing 510 and is configured to suck air flow from the air inlet, flow through the air inlet air path and the purified air path, and then discharge it from the air outlet. In this way, the clean air is discharged from the air outlet of the fan housing 510 through the centrifugal fan 550. The air outlet is disposed on the side wall of the fan housing 510, which is convenient for air supply. The fan housing 510 is disposed above the second cylinder 110. During the upward flow of the air flow, it helps the air flow to separate from the water droplets, further reducing the water droplet content in the purified air and avoiding increasing the humidity of the indoor space.

[0103] Optionally, the air outlet of the fan housing 510 includes: a first-direction air outlet 511, which is disposed at a first position on the side wall of the fan housing 510, and is provided with a plurality of rotatable first grilles 520, and is configured to discharge the purified air to the external environment, such as Figure 4 shown in the figure. In this way, through the rotatable first grilles 520, the air flow rate of the first-direction air outlet 511 is controlled, improving the comfort.

[0104] The first position is located on the front side of the fan housing 510. Herein, the "front side of the fan housing 510" can be understood as the side facing the user. In this way, it helps the centrifugal fan 550 to directly blow the purified air towards the user, enabling the user to have a better experience.

[0105] Optionally, the air outlet of the fan housing 510 further includes: a second-direction air outlet 512 and a second-direction air outlet passage 540. The second-direction air outlet 512 is disposed at a second position on the side wall of the fan housing 510 and is configured to discharge the purified air to the air inlet side of the heat exchanger; wherein, the second position of the fan housing 510 is disposed opposite to the first position of the fan housing 510, such as Figure 15 shown in the figure. In this way, it helps to improve the quality of the air discharged after passing through the heat exchanger. The first position and the second position are disposed opposite to each other. When the first-direction air outlet 511 and the second-direction air outlet 512 discharge air simultaneously, they do not interfere with each other.

[0106] In some embodiments, the fan housing for the water purification module further includes a second air inlet 513, which is disposed on the bottom wall of the housing main body and is configured to suck the air purified in the purification chamber. Optionally, the second air inlet 513 is connected to the air outlet of the water purification module. In this way, it can ensure that the air purified by the water purification module is directly sent into the room or the air inlet side of the indoor heat exchanger through the fan.

[0107] The air purified by water has two control modes and two air ducts. One is that the purified air passes through the front housing of the fan and then blows out through the front panel; the other is that it passes through the rear housing of the fan, blows upward through the air duct to the heat exchanger, and after being condensed by the heat exchanger, it returns to the purification chamber 100 of the water purification, thus reducing the frequency of user water replacement and avoiding excessive water vapor flowing into the room, and realizing the control of the indoor humidity. Or, according to different indoor humidity requirements, the air after water washing controls the flow of the purified air. One is to blow directly, and the other is to enter the heat exchanger through the air duct. After the dehumidification function of the heat exchanger, the condensed water flows back to the water washing and purification module.

[0108] In summary, the water purification module provided by the present application realizes the three-degree adjustment of the temperature, humidity and cleanliness of the air by washing the air with water; realizes "consumable-free" purification, pure ecological environmental protection and enjoyment of fresh air after rain through the technology of washing air with water; and generates ecological negative ions beneficial to the human body by simulating natural phenomena.

[0109] In some optional embodiments, the water delivery assembly includes a water purification assembly, a water inlet waterway and a water return waterway.

[0110] Combined with Figures 17 to 26 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a water purification assembly for a water purification module, including a purification chamber 100 and a counter-jet member 200. The counter-jet member 200 is arranged in the purification chamber 100; the counter-jet member 200 can make the water flow jet towards each other and form water mist or water droplets in the purification chamber 100 after the water flow collides.

[0111] In the water purification assembly for the water purification module provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the counter-jet member 200 uses the collision of the water flow jet out towards each other to generate water mist or water droplets. The water mist or water droplets fill the entire purification chamber 100, can completely cover the cross-section of the air flow path, and comprehensively wash and purify the air flowing through the purification chamber 100. Moreover, the atomization effect of the water mist or water droplets generated by the counter-jet member is better, the water droplet diameter is smaller and more uniform, and a better water washing and purification effect is achieved.

[0112] The counter-jet member 200 includes a nozzle and a water inlet. The nozzle of the counter-jet member 200 is communicated with the water inlet of the counter-jet member. The nozzle is located in the purification chamber 100 and is used for spraying water into the purification chamber 100. The water outlet of the water inlet waterway is communicated with the water inlet of the counter-jet member. The water inlet of the water return waterway is communicated with the purification chamber 100 and is used for leading out the water flow in the purification chamber 100 from the purification chamber 100.

[0113] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 23 to 26As shown, the nozzles of the counter-jet part 200 include a first nozzle 210 and a second nozzle 220. The first nozzle 210 includes a first nozzle orifice 211, and the second nozzle 220 includes a second nozzle orifice 221. The second nozzle orifice 221 is disposed opposite to the first nozzle orifice 211; a baffle is disposed on the first nozzle 210 and / or the second nozzle 220. The counter-jet part utilizes the collision of water flows ejected from two opposite nozzles to generate water mist or water droplets. The water mist or water droplets are diffused in the purification chamber 100 to wash and purify the air flow passing through the purification chamber 100. The setting of the baffle can help the counter-jet part 200 form a better water mist effect, form smaller droplets, and diffuse inside the entire cavity of the purification chamber 100, so that the air passing through the purification chamber 100 can fully contact with water, achieving the effect of washing and purifying.

[0114] In some embodiments, the baffle includes a first baffle 230 and / or a second baffle 240. The first baffle 230 is disposed on the circumferential direction of the first nozzle orifice 211 or the circumferential direction of the second nozzle orifice 221; the second baffle 240 is disposed at the position on the back side of the first nozzle orifice 211 or the second nozzle orifice 221.

[0115] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first baffle 230 is disposed on the circumferential direction of the nozzle (the first nozzle orifice 211 or the second nozzle orifice 221), so that the water ejected from the opposite nozzles impacts on the first baffle 230, improving the water mist effect. The second baffle 240 is disposed at the position on the side of the nozzle in the direction opposite to the jet direction (i.e., the back position), playing a protective role for the water flow ejected from the jet, and avoiding the influence of the external environment on the water flow. For example, when the counter-jet part 200 is on the air flow path of the purification chamber 100, the air flow will cause the jet water flow to deflect, resulting in a poor counter-flushing effect of the relatively jet water flows, affecting the formation of the water mist, and also causing the formed water mist or water droplets to deflect towards the air outlet side, further affecting the formation of the water mist, and finally resulting in a reduction in the purification effect.

[0116] Optionally, the second baffle 240 is disposed on the first nozzle 210 or the second nozzle 220 on the windward side, and is located between the first nozzle orifice 211 or the second nozzle orifice 221 of the incoming air and the windward side, so as to provide a good protective effect for the first nozzle orifice 211 and the second nozzle orifice 221 of the counter-jet part 200.

[0117] The counter-jet part of the embodiments of the present disclosure has at least the following three structures. The first type of counter-jet part, combined Figure 23 As shown, the first baffle 230 is disposed on the circumferential direction of both the first nozzle orifice 211 and the second nozzle orifice 221. The second type of counter-jet part, combined Figure 25 As shown, the second baffle 240 is disposed at the back position of the first nozzle 210 or the second nozzle 220 on the windward side. The third type of counter-jet part, combined Figure 27As shown, first baffles 230 are provided both in the circumferential direction of the first nozzle 211 and in the circumferential direction of the second nozzle 221, and a second baffle 240 is provided at the position on the back side of the first spray head 210 on the windward side. Just select a suitable counter-jet part 200 according to actual needs.

[0118] Optionally, an atomization sandwich layer 232 is formed between the first baffle 230 on the first spray head 210 and the first baffle 230 on the second spray head 220. The atomization sandwich layer 232 can cause the collided water droplets to collide again.

[0119] Optionally, mounting holes 104 are provided on the cavity wall of the purification chamber 100. For example, the mounting holes 104 are integrally formed on the cavity wall of the purification chamber 100, and the mounting holes 104 can be regarded as through holes. Providing mounting holes on the cavity wall of the purification chamber facilitates the installation and fixation of the counter-jet part.

[0120] Optionally, in combination Figure 27 As shown, the water purification module includes a water tank 310, and the water tank 310 is arranged on the air delivery assembly.

[0121] Optionally, the water purification module includes a water supply pipe fitting 320. The water supply pipe fitting 320 is arranged on the air delivery assembly. The water supply pipe fitting 320 defines a water flow channel 323, and the water flow channel 323 is communicated between the water tank 310 and the circulation channel 322.

[0122] The water supply pipe fitting 320 is used to connect the water tank 310 and the circulation channel 322. The water in the water tank 310 flows into the circulation channel 322 through the water flow channel 323, flows into the water inlet of the water inlet waterway through the circulation channel 322, and then flows into the water inlet of the counter-jet part 200 through the water outlet of the water inlet waterway, and then flows to the spray head and is sprayed into the purification chamber 100 through the spray head.

[0123] Optionally, the water tank 310 is slidably connected to the air delivery assembly. Among them, a slider is provided on one of the water tank 310 and the air delivery assembly, and a sliding groove 315 is provided on the other. The slider is located in the sliding groove 315 and can slide relative to the sliding groove 315.

[0124] The water tank 310 is slidably connected to the air delivery assembly. In this way, the water tank 310 can be installed on the air delivery assembly or removed from the air delivery assembly by pulling the water tank 310, which improves the convenience for users to take the water tank 310 to change water and load the water tank 310.

[0125] In combination Figure 28 As shown, the air delivery assembly includes a plug-in part 321. The plug-in part 321 is connected to the purification chamber 100, and a circulation channel 322 is provided in the plug-in part 321. The circulation channel 322 is communicated between the water tank 310 and the water inlet of the water inlet waterway.

[0126] In combination Figure 1As shown, a gap between the water tank 310 and the air delivery assembly forms a communication channel 900. The air inlet 103 is connected to the outside through the communication channel 900. The purification part is located above the insertion part 321, and the purification chamber 100 is located above the flow channel 322. After the outside air enters the air inlet 103 from the communication channel 900, it flows into the flow channel 322, and the air flows upward into the purification chamber 100. The spray member 200 is located in the purification chamber 100, and the water sprayed from the spray member 200 forms a water washing environment in the purification chamber 100 to wash the air entering the purification chamber 100.

[0127] The purification chamber 100 is located above the flow channel 322. The air from the flow channel 322 flows upward into the purification chamber 100, and the water sprayed from the spray member 200 flows downward, thereby increasing the contact area between the water and the air and enhancing the water washing effect on the air.

[0128] The air inlet 103 is connected to the outside through the communication channel 900, avoiding the need to separately provide the communication channel 900 on the air delivery assembly, simplifying the structure of the air delivery assembly and reducing the cost of the air delivery assembly.

[0129] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 27 the insertion part 321 is connected to the purification part, and an installation notch 314 is provided on the water tank 310. At least part of the insertion part 321 is located within the installation notch 314.

[0130] The installation notch 314 is provided to avoid interference between the water tank 310 and the insertion part 321 and realize the installation of the water tank 310 on the air delivery assembly. The direction in which the insertion part 321 is inserted into the installation notch 314 is on the same straight line as or parallel to the movement direction of the slider relative to the sliding groove 315. In this way, during the sliding of the slider relative to the sliding groove 315, the insertion part 321 is inserted into the installation notch 314.

[0131] The gap between the water tank 310 and the purification part forms the communication channel 900, and the air inlet 103 is located at one end of the insertion part 321 close to the purification part, improving the compactness of the water purification module structure. As shown in Figure 3 the gap between the upper surface of the water tank 310 and the purification part forms the communication channel 900, and the air inlet 103 is provided at the upper end of the insertion part 321.

[0132] As shown in Figures 20 to 22 an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a water collection assembly for a water purification module, including a water retaining edge 410 and a drainage pipe 420. The water retaining edge 410 is provided at the water outlet of the purification chamber 100 to define a return water collection area; the drainage pipe 420 is provided below the water outlet of the purification chamber 100, with the first end 421 communicating with the return water collection area and the second end capable of discharging water.

[0133] Optionally, a bending portion 411 is provided on the water retaining edge 410. When the water retaining edge 410 is provided on the water outlet (i.e., the first air inlet 101) of the purification chamber 100, the concave side of the bending portion 411 and the edge of the water outlet (i.e., the first air inlet 101) form a connecting hole; the first end 421 of the drainage tube 420 is connected to the connecting hole.

[0134] The water collection assembly 400 of the disclosed embodiment first collects the return water from the purification chamber 100, and then drains it through the drainage pipe 420, collects the water after air purification, and avoids it returning to the water tank containing purified water, thereby ensuring that the water entering the spray piece is clean water and will not cause secondary pollution, thereby ensuring the purification effect. There is no need to filter the water entering the spray piece, which reduces the setting of the filter device, and there is no need to clean or replace the filter device regularly, so there is no need for secondary consumption, which reduces costs. Moreover, the noise generated when the return water flows down the edge of the water outlet of the purification chamber 100 is reduced. At the same time, when the water outlet of the purification chamber 100 coincides with the air inlet, the setting of the water retaining edge 410 can avoid the head-on collision between the return water and the incoming air, reduce wind resistance, and prevent the incoming air from bringing impurities and microorganisms in the return water, thereby improving the purification effect.

[0135] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second end 422 of the drainage pipe 420 can discharge water directly to the outside or to the water collecting box 430 disposed inside. It can be determined according to actual conditions.

[0136] In some embodiments, the water collection assembly 400 further includes a water collection tank 430. The water collection tank 430 is disposed below the purification chamber 100 and is in communication with the second end 422 of the drainage pipe 420. The purified return water is drained into the water collection tank 430 for centralized treatment.

[0137] Optionally, combined Figure 22 As shown, the water collecting tank 430 can be connected to the drainage pipeline 840 of the external air conditioner. The external air conditioner can be an air conditioner, for example, a cabinet air conditioner. The water in the water collecting tank 430 is discharged through the drainage pipeline 840 of the external air conditioner, avoiding the disassembly of the water collecting tank 430 and facilitating drainage.

[0138] Optionally, the water supply pipe 320 is disposed on the top cover of the water collection assembly 400. The water supply pipe 320 is disposed on the top cover of the water collection assembly 400, which improves the compactness of the purification module structure, reduces the occupied space of the purification module, and improves the utilization rate of the space.

[0139] Optionally, the water purification module further includes a water pump 330, the water inlet waterway includes a water supply pipe 340, and the water pump 330 is arranged on the water supply pipe 340 to transport the water in the water supply pipe 340 to the water inlet of the spray piece.

[0140] The water pump 330 provides water with a certain pressure to the spraying member 200, so that water can continuously flow from the water tank 310 into the purification chamber 100. The water in the water tank 310 enters the water supply pipe 340 through the water flow channel 323, the circulation channel 322, and the communication hole 325. Driven by the water pump 330, the water in the water supply pipe 340 flows into the water inlet of the spraying member. The communication hole 325 and the water supply member 320 are located on opposite sides of the insertion portion 321, making the components of the water purification module more reasonably arranged and occupying less volume.

[0141] Optionally, the purification chamber 100, the insertion portion 321, the water collection assembly 400, and the water supply member 320 are fixedly connected, for example, as an integral structure.

[0142] Combined with Figures 29 to 34 As shown, another embodiment of the present disclosure provides another water purification module, including a housing 91, a water inlet channel 93, and a purification structure 92.

[0143] The housing 91 defines an installation space 911. The housing 91 is provided with a flow outlet 913 and an inlet 912, and both the flow outlet 913 and the inlet 912 are communicated with the installation space 911.

[0144] Combined with Figure 31 As shown, the purification structure 92 is located in the installation space 911. At least part of the surface of the purification structure 92 has a concavo-convex structure 9213. The concavo-convex structure 9213 is located on the flow path of the air flowing from the inlet 912 to the flow outlet 913, and corresponds to the water outlet of the water inlet channel 93, so that the water flowing out of the water outlet can flow to the concavo-convex structure 9213.

[0145] The concavo-convex structure 9213 corresponds to the water outlet of the water inlet channel 93, so that the water flowing out of the water outlet of the water inlet channel 93 can flow to the concavo-convex structure 9213. Affected by the concavo-convex structure 9213, the water does not flow in a straight line on the concavo-convex structure 9213, but in a turbulent flow state. The concavo-convex structure 9213 is located on the flow path of the air flowing from the inlet 912 to the flow outlet 913. Thus, the air flowing into the installation space 911 from the inlet 912 flows out of the installation space 911 after passing through the concavo-convex structure 9213. When the air flows to the concavo-convex structure 9213, the air is also affected by the concavo-convex structure 9213 and flows in a turbulent flow state on the concavo-convex structure 9213. Thus, the water in a turbulent state can fully contact the air in a turbulent state, and then wash the air, and dust in the air is incorporated into the water, improving the cleanliness of the air.

[0146] Optionally, combined with Figure 31 、 Figure 33 and Figure 34As shown, the purification structure 92 includes a plurality of purification sheets 921. The plurality of purification sheets 921 are sequentially arranged in the direction from the inside to the outside. A flow channel 9241 communicating with both the inlet 912 and the outlet 913 is defined between two adjacent purification sheets 921. The concavo-convex structure 9213 is located on the outer surface and / or the inner surface of the purification sheet 921.

[0147] The air entering from the inlet 912 flows through the flow channel 9241 to the outlet 913. When the air flows through the flow channel 9241, it passes through the concavo-convex structure 9213, forming a turbulent state. When the water passes through the concavo-convex structure 9213, it also presents a turbulent state, realizing the purification of the air by the water flow.

[0148] A plurality of purification sheets 921 are provided, and the concavo-convex structure 9213 is provided on at least one of the outer surface and the inner surface of the purification sheet 921, so as to increase the area of the concavo-convex structure 9213, increase the contact area between the water flow and the air, and enhance the cleaning effect of the water flow on the air. Combined Figure 31 As shown, the concavo-convex structure is provided on the outer surface of the purification sheet.

[0149] Optionally, combined Figure 34 As shown, the purification sheet 921 is in a ring shape extending along the circumferential direction of the purification structure 92.

[0150] The plurality of purification sheets 921 are in a ring shape. Along the direction from the inside to the outside, the outer layer of the purification sheet 921 is sleeved outside the inner layer of the purification sheet 921. The ring-shaped purification sheet 921 can increase the area of the ring, thereby increasing the area of the concavo-convex structure 9213 and enhancing the purification effect of the water flow on the air.

[0151] The inlet 912 is in a ring shape and is arranged along the circumferential direction of the housing 91. A grille is provided inside the inlet 912. Providing the ring-shaped inlet 912 can increase the area of the inlet 912 and increase the air intake volume per unit time.

[0152] Or the number of the inlets 912 is multiple, and the multiple inlets 912 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the housing 91. Providing multiple inlets 912 can increase the area of the inlets 912 and increase the air intake volume per unit time.

[0153] Optionally, along the direction from top to bottom, the outer surface and / or the inner surface of the purification sheet 921 inclines outward to form an inclined surface 9212, and the concavo-convex structure 9213 is provided on the inclined surface 9212.

[0154] The water outlet of the water inlet channel 93 is located above the concavo-convex structure 9213. In this way, after the water flow flowing out from the water outlet of the water inlet channel 93 flows to the concavo-convex structure 9213, under the action of the gravity of the water flow and the adhesion of the purification sheet 921, it flows down along the purification sheet 921. During the downward flow process, affected by the concavo-convex structure 9213, the water does not flow straight down, but flows down turbulently.

[0155] The air inlet 9242 of the flow channel is located below the concave-convex structure 9213. The air entering through the air inlet 912 of the concave-convex structure 9213 enters the flow channel 9241 through the air inlet of the flow channel. Since the air inlet is located above the concave-convex structure 9213, the air moves upward along the purification sheet 921 and is affected by the concave-convex structure 9213 when passing through the concave-convex structure 9213, forming a turbulent flow state.

[0156] The water flow flows downward as a whole along the concave-convex structure 9213, and the air flows upward as a whole along the concave-convex structure 9213. In other words, the flow directions of the water flow and the air on the concave-convex structure 9213 are opposite, so that the water flow and the air are in full contact, enhancing the cleaning effect of the water flow on the air.

[0157] The concave-convex structure 9213 is arranged on the inclined surface 9212, so that the concave-convex structure 9213 is also in an inclined state. On the premise that both the air and the water flow can form a turbulent flow state, the path length of the flow of the air and the water flow on the concave-convex structure 9213 is increased, further enabling the air and the water flow to be in full contact and enhancing the purification effect of the water flow on the air.

[0158] Combined Figure 34 As shown, the purification sheet 921 further includes a vertical surface 9211, the vertical surface 9211 is arranged along the vertical direction, and the upper end of the vertical surface 9211 is connected to the lower end of the inclined surface 9212.

[0159] Optionally, the outermost purification sheet 921 (the outermost purification sheet combined Figure 31 as shown in D in) abuts against the inner wall surface of the housing 91. The air inlet 912 and the air outlet 913 are respectively located on both sides of the abutting portion of the outermost purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91. Combined Figure 34 as shown, the air inlet 912 is located below the abutting portion of the outermost purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91, and the air outlet 913 is located above the abutting portion of the outermost purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91.

[0160] The outermost purification sheet 921 abuts against the housing 91, thereby reducing the gap between the outermost housing 91 and the housing 91, and preventing the air flow in the air inlet 912 from flowing directly from the gap between the purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91 to the air outlet 913 without passing through the flow channel 9241. Optionally, a sealing member is provided at the abutting portion of the outermost purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91 to further enhance the sealing performance between the outermost purification sheet 921 and the inner wall surface of the housing 91. The specific manner in which the outermost purification sheet 921 abuts against the housing 91 may be that the inner wall surface of the housing protrudes inward to form a first protrusion, and the first protrusion abuts against the outermost purification sheet, or the outermost purification sheet protrudes outward to form a second protrusion, and the second protrusion abuts against the inner wall surface of the housing.

[0161] Optionally, combined with Figure 31 As shown, the water inlet waterway 93 is arranged inside the innermost purification sheet 921 (the innermost purification sheet is combined as shown in C), and the water inlet of the water inlet waterway 93 is communicated with the bottom of the installation space 911, and the bottom of the installation space is combined as shown in B in Figure 31 shown. Figure 31 As shown in B.

[0162] A water inlet pipe is provided in the middle of the innermost purification sheet 921, and the water inlet waterway 93 includes the water inlet pipe, or a flow channel is provided in the middle of the innermost purification sheet 921, and the water inlet waterway 93 includes the flow channel. The inlet water flow is arranged inside the innermost purification sheet 921, so that when the water flow flows into the water inlet waterway 93 through the water inlet of the water inlet waterway 93 and flows out of the water outlet of the water inlet waterway 93, the water flow can reach each concave-convex structure 9213 from the inside to the outside.

[0163] Water is located at the bottom of the installation space 911. The water inlet of the water inlet waterway 93 is communicated with the bottom of the installation space 911. The water at the bottom of the installation space 911 flows through the water inlet waterway 93 to the concave-convex structure 9213. After the water flow washes the air, under the action of the gravity of the water flow, the water flow flows down along the purification sheet 921 and then flows to the bottom of the installation space 911.

[0164] Optionally, the inlet 912 is located above the water at the bottom of the installation space 911 to prevent the water at the bottom of the installation space 911 from flowing out of the installation space 911 through the inlet 912.

[0165] Optionally, combined with Figure 31 As shown, the purification structure 92 further includes a connection structure 96. The connection structure 96 is connected to a plurality of purification sheets 921. A communication hole is provided on the connection structure 96, and the flow channel 9241 is communicated with the flow outlet 913 through the communication hole.

[0166] The connection structure 96 realizes the connection between the plurality of purification sheets 921 and enhances the structural stability of the purification structure 92. Optionally, the connection structure 96 is fixedly connected to the plurality of purification sheets 921. For example, the connection structure 96 is welded or screwed to the plurality of purification sheets 921.

[0167] After the air flow in the inlet 912 flows through the flow channel 9241, it flows from the communication hole to the flow outlet 913 to realize air circulation. Optionally, combined with Figure 29 As shown, the number of the flow outlets is multiple, and the multiple flow outlets are circumferentially distributed along the shell, and the flow outlets are arranged corresponding to the concave-convex structure. Combined with Figure 31 As shown, the flow outlet is located directly above the concave-convex structure.

[0168] Optionally, the water purification module further includes a water pump 94 and a fan 95.

[0169] Combined with Figure 31 As shown, the water pump 94 is arranged on the water inlet passage 93. The water pump 94 drives the water at the bottom of the driving installation space 911 to flow into the water inlet passage 93 and drives the water flow in the water inlet passage 93 to flow towards the water outlet, and then flows from the water outlet to the concave-convex structure 9213, realizing the water flow from the bottom of the installation space 911 to the concave-convex structure 9213. Optionally, the water pump 94 is located at the bottom of the installation space 911, improving the structural compactness of the water purification module.

[0170] Combined with Figure 31 As shown, the fan 95 is located between the purification structure 92 and the outflow port 913, and is used to discharge air to the outflow port 913.

[0171] The fan 95 provides a driving force for the air to flow from the inlet 912 to the outflow port 913, realizing the air flow in the installation space 911. Optionally, the fan 95 is located between the purification sheet 921 and the concave-convex structure 9213.

[0172] Optionally, the concave-convex structure 9213 is corrugated. The corrugated concave-convex structure 9213 is easy to process and can make the air and water flow passing through the corrugated structure in a turbulent state.

[0173] It can be understood that the concave-convex structure 9213 may not be corrugated, for example, it may be serrated.

[0174] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air conditioner, which includes an air conditioner main body and one or more water purification modules. In this embodiment, the air conditioner main body mainly refers to the indoor unit part of the air conditioner, which includes a housing 810, an electric control component arranged inside the housing 810, a heat exchanger 850, a fan, a refrigerant pipeline and other components; the water purification module is one or more water purification modules shown in the above-mentioned embodiments, which is arranged in the air conditioner main body and can cooperate with the air conditioner main body to perform purification work when the air conditioner main body is in various working modes such as air supply, refrigeration, heating, and dehumidification, or it can also operate independently to perform purification work.

[0175] Combined with Figures 35 to 39 As shown, a third air inlet 811 and a third air outlet 812 are arranged on the periphery of the housing 810; the water purification module is arranged inside the housing 810, and air flow enters the housing 810 from the third air inlet 811, flows through the inside of the water purification module, and flows out of the housing 810 from the third air outlet 812.

[0176] By adopting the above embodiment, the air flow in the air is discharged after being washed and purified by the water purification module in the housing 810, improving the air quality of the indoor environment and obtaining a good purification effect.

[0177] The third air inlet 811 of the cabinet 810 is connected to the third air inlet 811 of the water purification module, and the third air outlet 812 is connected to the third air outlet 812 of the water purification module, thereby enabling the circulation of air between the cabinet 810 and the water purification module.

[0178] Optionally, the third air inlet 811 is located at the lower part of the water purification module, and the third air outlet 812 is located at the upper part of the water purification module. In this way, better air circulation can be achieved. Under the action of gravity, impurities in the air sink, so the air quality in the lower middle part of the room is worse than that in the upper part. By having the third air inlet 811 at the lower part of the water purification module and the third air outlet 812 at the upper part of the water purification module, the air with relatively poor quality enters through the third air inlet 811, is purified by water washing through the water purification module, and is discharged into the room through the third air outlet 812 to obtain clean air; the air in the room is fully circulated and purified by the air conditioner to improve the indoor air quality.

[0179] Optionally, as shown in Figure 35 The water purification module is located at the lower part inside the cabinet 810. On the one hand, this helps to fully circulate and purify the air in the room and improve the indoor air quality; on the other hand, the clean air from the water purification module can continue to be conveyed upward to the heat exchanger of the air conditioner, and the clean air is discharged into the room after passing through the heat exchanger, thereby obtaining air with appropriate temperature and cleanliness and improving the comfort of users.

[0180] Among them, as shown in Figure 37 The heat exchanger 850 is located above the water purification module. In this way, through the vertical arrangement of the water purification module and the heat exchanger 850, it helps to save the floor area of the air conditioner.

[0181] Optionally, the air conditioner further includes: a frame 860, which is arranged inside the cabinet 810 and includes a purification space 801 surrounded by a bottom plate 861, a first side plate 862, a second side plate 863, a back plate 864, and a top plate 865; the purification space 801 is configured to place the water purification module. In this way, the water purification module is installed through the frame 860 to improve its stability and prevent vibration and noise during water washing purification.

[0182] Optionally, a certain distance is preset between the purification space 801 and the bottom of the frame 860. This helps the air in the room to enter the air conditioner for water washing purification.

[0183] Optionally, the first side plate 862 and the second side plate 863 are symmetrically arranged on the frame 860 and are detachably connected to the frame 860. The first side plate 862, the back plate 864, and the second side plate 863 are arranged in sequence and surround the bottom plate 861, and are all connected to the bottom plate 861. The water purification module is located on the bottom plate 861.

[0184] Optionally, the bottom plate 861 is provided with a rib structure. In this way, the bearing capacity of the bottom plate 861 can be improved, and it can better play a load-bearing role. Among them, the rib structure includes a plurality of plate ribs, and the plurality of plate ribs are distributed at intervals on the lower surface of the bottom plate 861. The rib structure further includes a concave groove 8610 recessed downward from the upper surface of the bottom plate 861, as Figure 36 shown. In this way, on the one hand, the concave groove plays a strengthening role, and on the other hand, when the water purification module vibrates during water washing and purification, the concave groove can also absorb and reduce the noise generated by the vibration.

[0185] Combined Figure 40 with Figure 41 shown, the purification space 801 formed inside the casing 810 can play a role in protecting the water purification module to a certain extent. The rigid casing 810 can reduce or avoid the collision of external objects with the water purification module, thereby effectively ensuring the service life of the water purification module.

[0186] Here, the shape design of the purification space 801 is adapted to the outer contour shape of the water purification module. Optionally, the overall outer contour of the water purification module is approximately cylindrical, and correspondingly, the purification space 801 can be designed as a cylindrical shape. In the embodiment, the overall size of the purification space 801 is larger than the size of the outer contour of the water purification module to facilitate the assembly of the water purification module and the purification space 801.

[0187] Optionally, for cabinet-type air conditioner models, functional components such as heat exchangers and fans are mainly arranged in the upper-middle position of the air conditioner body. Therefore, in order to reduce the excessive change in the component space layout of the cabinet-type air conditioner caused by adding the purification space 801, in this embodiment, the purification space 801 is arranged at the lower part of the cabinet-type air conditioner.

[0188] In order to enable users to more intuitively view the working state of the water purification module in the purification space 801, in some optional embodiments, a window is opened at the part of the casing 810 corresponding to the purification space 801. The window is located on the circumferential side of the purification space 801, so that users can see the working state of the water purification module inside the purification space 801 from the side through this window.

[0189] In this embodiment, the window includes a window opening 821 and a window cover plate 822; among them, the window opening 821 is an opening opened on the casing 810. The cabinet-type air conditioner in this embodiment is approximately cylindrical, and the circumferential length of the window opening 821 can be set to 1 / 6 to 1 / 4 of the circumference of the cylindrical shape, so that the opening of the window opening 821 will not cause too much impact on the overall bearing capacity of the casing 810; the window cover plate 822 covers the window opening 821, and it can play a role in closing the window opening 821, blocking pollutants such as dust in the external environment from entering the purification space 801 through the window opening 821 to ensure the cleanliness of the internal environment of the purification space 801.

[0190] Optionally, the shape of the viewing window 821 includes, but is not limited to, square, rectangular, circular, triangular or diamond-shaped, and the viewing window 821 can be set to other regular or irregular shapes according to actual needs.

[0191] Optionally, the viewing window cover plate 822 is made of a transparent or translucent material, such as glass, transparent plastic, etc., so that the user can normally view the internal condition of the purification space 801 through the viewing window cover plate 822.

[0192] In some optional embodiments, the viewing window cover plate 822 is disposed to be openable and closable relative to the viewing window 821. Therefore, the user can selectively open or close the viewing window 821 by operating the viewing window cover plate 822 to facilitate operations such as cleaning the purification space 801 and taking and placing the water washing module.

[0193] Optionally, the viewing window cover plate 822 and the viewing window 821 are clamped and fixed through a structure in which a clamping protrusion and a clamping groove cooperate. Here, one or more clamping protrusions are provided on the outer peripheral edge of the viewing window cover plate 822, and one or more clamping grooves are provided at the positions corresponding to the clamping protrusions on the outer peripheral edge of the viewing window 821. When the viewing window cover plate 822 is assembled over the viewing window 821, each clamping protrusion is inserted into the corresponding clamping groove, and a clamping limit can be formed between the clamping groove and the clamping protrusion, so that the viewing window cover plate 822 can be tightly fixed on the viewing window 821.

[0194] Optionally, an arc-shaped groove is additionally provided on one side edge of the viewing window 821, and a part of the arc-shaped groove is not covered by the viewing window cover plate 822, so that the arc-shaped groove can be used as a structure for the user to pry the viewing window cover plate 822 and thus separate the viewing window cover plate 822 from the viewing window 821.

[0195] Optionally, the viewing window cover plate 822 is disposed flush with the outer wall surface of the housing 810. In the embodiment, the outer wall surface of the housing 810 is an arc surface, and the viewing window cover plate 822 is also provided with an arc-shaped plate surface structure corresponding to the radian. After the viewing window cover plate 822 is flush-mounted on the viewing window 821 with the outer wall surface, there is no redundant protrusion on the outer wall surface of the housing 810, and the whole is smooth and beautiful.

[0196] In the above-mentioned multiple embodiments, since the user can open the viewing window 821 by operating the viewing window cover plate 822, optionally, the viewing window cover plate 822 can also be made of a non-transparent material. When the user needs to view the working state of the water washing module, the user can operate the viewing window cover plate 822 to open the viewing window 821 to achieve this.

[0197] In some optional embodiments, the working principle of the water purification module is to absorb and filter pollutants in the air by spraying water, so continuous consumption of clean water is required. The water purification module is provided with a water tank, which stores clean water for spraying. Since there is an upper limit to the clean water storage capacity of the water tank, users generally need to add water to the water tank regularly. In order to facilitate the user's water addition operation to the water tank, the caliber design of the window needs to at least allow the water tank to be moved in or out of the housing 810.

[0198] For example, the shape of the water tank in the embodiment is approximately pie-shaped, with a height of 8 cm and a diameter of 20 cm. Correspondingly, the aperture of the window can be designed to be 12 cm in height and 25 cm in width, so that the height and width of the window are both larger than the height and width of the water tank, ensuring that the water tank can pass through the window more easily.

[0199] Optionally, in order to reduce the collision between the water tank and the housing 810 during the process of moving the water tank in or out, a buffer strip is arranged along the periphery of the inner side of the window in this embodiment, and the buffer strip can play a role in buffering and reducing pressure. Optionally, the buffer strip can be a cotton strip or a rubber strip.

[0200] Optionally, the frame 860 further includes: a limiting member 866, which is symmetrically arranged on the bottom plate 861 and arranged opposite to the window. Optionally, the window is arranged opposite to the back plate. In this way, the limiting member 866 prevents the water purification module from being installed in a position that does not correspond, resulting in failure to install, or the water purification module is unstable after installation, and abnormal noise occurs during use, thereby reducing the service life of the water purification module. Among them, there are at least two limiting members 866, and they are symmetrically arranged at a position near the back plate 864 of the bottom plate 861, that is, one limiting member 866 is located in the direction of the first side plate 862, and the other limiting member 866 is located in the direction of the second side plate 863, and the first side plate 862 and the second side plate 863 are symmetrically arranged.

[0201] Optionally, the upper surface of the limiting member 866 is tilted upward from the upper surface of the bottom plate 861 to the side of the back plate 864. In this way, it is helpful to prevent the water purification module from being forcibly squeezed by the limiting member 866 during installation, thereby causing unnecessary damage. For example, when the water purification module is installed, it conflicts with the limiting member 866. When the user continues to push the water purification module, the water purification module is forced to move upward along the upper surface of the limiting member 866, so that the water purification module is tilted, thereby reminding the user to adjust the position of the water purification module. Among them, the limiting member 866 can be a limiting block. The upper surface of the limiting member 866 can be an inclined surface or a curved surface.

[0202] Optionally, combined Figure 37As shown, the back panel 864 is provided with a hollowed-out portion 8640, and the hollowed-out portion 8640 is configured to install the pipe fittings of the water purification module. In this way, the fixation of the pipe fittings of the water purification module and the fixation of other key components of the air conditioner can be achieved through the hollowed-out portion 8640. Among them, there may be multiple hollowed-out portions 8640, which are evenly arranged on the back panel 864. On the one hand, it is beautiful, and on the other hand, it is convenient for processing and manufacturing. The pipe fittings can pass through the hollowed-out portion 8640, and their movement is restricted by the back panel 864 around the hollowed-out portion 8640. Secondly, the circulation of the water purification module and the external air can also be achieved through the hollowed-out portion 8640. After the external air enters the housing 810, it can also enter the water purification module from the hollowed-out portion 8640.

[0203] Optionally, in combination with Figure 37 As shown, the first side panel 862 is provided with a first groove 8620; the second side panel 863 is provided with a second groove 8630 opposite to the first groove 8620; among them, the first groove 8620 and the second groove 8630 define a space for installing the blower housing of the water purification module. In this way, the blower housing is installed through the space defined by the first groove 8620 and the second groove 8630, and the blower housing is embedded in the first groove 8620 and the second groove 8630. Among them, the first-direction air outlet 511 of the blower housing 510 is consistent with the window of the purification space 801. The blower housing 510 is detachably connected to the first side panel 862, the second side panel 863 and the frame 860. The first-direction air outlet 511 of the blower housing corresponds to the third air outlet 812 of the housing 810.

[0204] Optionally, the housing 810 includes: a plurality of sheet bodies 813, which are detachably connected to the frame 860. In this way, the plurality of sheet bodies 813 are sequentially arranged around the frame 860. On the one hand, it is convenient to maintain different parts of the air conditioner; secondly, it is convenient for processing, manufacturing and installation. For example, the housing 810 is formed by sequentially connecting four sheet bodies 813. Among them, the sheet bodies 813 can be connected by connecting pieces. One side of the sheet body 813 is connected to the connecting piece, and the other side is connected to the frame 860; the connecting piece 814 is arranged vertically, with one end detachably connected to the frame 860 and the other end suspended.

[0205] Optionally, the air flow directions of the third air inlet 811 and the third air outlet 812 are partially or completely the same. In this way, it helps to overcome the limitation of the installation position of the air conditioner. For example, the third air inlet 811 and the third air outlet 812 intake air from the same side, and the air conditioner can be installed in a corner, and clean air is radiated and transported outward with the installation position as the origin, improving the indoor air quality. When the air flow directions of the third air inlet 811 and the third air outlet 812 are partially the same, it helps to prevent the mixing of clean air and air with impurities, reducing the purification effect.

[0206] Optionally, in combination with Figure 35 andFigure 39 As shown, the third air outlet 812 is provided with a mesh structure 8120. In this way, the mesh structure 8120 can block the water droplets carried by the output air flow, further reducing the water droplet content in the air flow, preventing the indoor air temperature from decreasing, and improving the air purification effect. Secondly, it is beautiful and easy to clean.

[0207] Optionally, the mesh structure 8120 of the third air outlet 812 can be a plurality of evenly spaced-apart mesh holes or grids. It can be integrally formed with the casing 810 or formed by stamping the casing 810.

[0208] In some alternative embodiments, in combination with Figure 42 and Figure 43 As shown, the air conditioner main body further includes a water receiving tray and a drainage pipe 840. Among them, the water receiving tray is generally arranged below the heat exchanger. Since the temperature of the heat exchanger is relatively low when the air conditioner operates in cooling and dehumidifying modes, a relatively large amount of condensed water will condense on the surface of the heat exchanger. This part of the condensed water will flow downward under its own gravity and drip into the water receiving tray. The drainage pipe 840 is connected to the water receiving tray and is used to drain the condensed water collected in the water receiving tray to the outdoor side.

[0209] In this embodiment, in order to realize the reuse of the condensed water collected in the water receiving tray, the water supply assembly 300 is provided with a condensed water inlet, which is connected to the upstream pipe section of the drainage pipe 840. In this way, when the condensed water flows through the upstream pipe section of the drainage pipe 840, at least part of the condensed water will be diverted into the water supply assembly 300. This part of the diverted condensed water can be used as a supplementary water source for the water supply assembly 300, effectively reducing the frequency of the user adding water to the water purification module and reducing the operation burden of the user.

[0210] In some alternative embodiments, the condensed water inlet is connected to the upstream pipe section of the drainage pipe 840 through a three-way valve 841; among them, the three-way valve 841 includes a valve inlet and two valve outlets (the first valve outlet and the second valve outlet), and it can switch between a first on-off state and a second on-off state. The first on-off state is that the valve inlet is connected to the first valve outlet and the second valve outlet is blocked, and the second on-off state is that the valve inlet is blocked from the first valve outlet and the second valve outlet is connected.

[0211] Here, the three-way valve 841 is connected in series to the upstream pipe section. The valve inlet and the second valve outlet are respectively connected to the upstream pipe section, and the first valve outlet is connected to the condensate inlet. Therefore, when condensate replenishment is required for the water supply assembly 300, the three-way valve 841 can be controlled to switch to the first state, so that the condensate flowing through the upstream pipe section of the drain pipe 840 can flow through the first valve outlet to the condensate inlet of the water supply assembly 300; when condensate replenishment is not required for the water supply assembly 300, the three-way valve 841 can be controlled to switch to the second state, so that the condensate can be directly discharged to the outdoor side through the drain pipe 840.

[0212] In some alternative embodiments, since the condensate drips from the heat exchanger, the condensate may be mixed with pollutants such as dust on the heat exchanger. If the condensate mixed with pollutants is used as the purification water source of the water purification module, the actual air purification effect will be greatly reduced. To address this possible problem, a filter element 842 is provided at the condensate inlet in this embodiment. The filter element can be used to purify the condensate before it flows into the water supply assembly 300 to filter out the pollutants that may be mixed therein, so that the purified condensate can meet the water quality requirements for air purification.

[0213] In this embodiment, the filter element 842 includes a sleeve and a filter element; the two ends of the sleeve are respectively connected to the first valve outlet of the three-way valve 841 and the condensate inlet, and the filter element is arranged inside the sleeve. In this way, the condensate diverted from the first valve outlet of the three-way valve 841 first flows through the sleeve and is purified by the filter element inside the sleeve, and then flows into the water supply assembly 300. Optionally, the sleeve is a straight pipe or a bent pipe to adapt to different space installation requirements inside the air conditioner.

[0214] Here, after the filter element has been used for a period of time, there are more pollutants adsorbed inside it and the purification effect deteriorates. Therefore, it needs to be replaced regularly. In this embodiment, the sleeve is detachably connected to the first valve outlet of the three-way valve 841 and the condensate inlet. Optionally, the detachable connection methods include but are not limited to threaded connection, flange connection, etc.

[0215] Optionally, the filter element types include activated carbon filter elements, polypropylene melt-blown filter elements, polyester filter elements or ceramic filter elements.

[0216] In some alternative embodiments, regarding the installation method of the water purification module and its related structures in the cabinet air conditioner, the space installation height of the condensate inlet is lower than the space installation height of the upstream pipe section of the drain pipe 840. Specifically, the space installation height of the three-way valve 841 relative to the connection position of the upstream pipe section of the drain pipe 840 is higher than the space installation height of the condensate inlet. In this way, the condensate can flow from the upstream pipe section to the condensate inlet under the action of gravity, without the need to additionally install a driving device such as a pump for transporting the condensate.

[0217] In some optional embodiments, the water collection tank of the water purification module itself has a water storage upper limit. Therefore, when the amount of dirty water stored in the water collection tank is relatively large, it needs to be discharged. In this embodiment, the outlet end of the water collection tank is connected to the downstream pipe section of the drainage pipeline 840, so that the dirty water in the water collection tank can be discharged to the outdoor side via the drainage pipeline 840.

[0218] Optionally, a one-way valve is provided at the outlet end of the water collection tank. The water flow direction defined by the one-way valve is from the outlet end to the downstream pipe section, so as to reduce the occurrence of the situation of dirty water backflow caused by the blockage of the drainage pipeline 840.

[0219] Here, regarding the installation method of the water purification module and its related structures in the cabinet air conditioner, the space installation height of the outlet end of the water collection tank is higher than that of the downstream pipe section of the drainage pipeline 840. In this way, the dirty water in the water collection tank can flow to the downstream pipe section of the drainage pipeline 840 under the action of gravity, without the need to additionally install a driving device such as a pump for transporting the dirty water.

[0220] It should be understood that the present application is not limited to the processes and structures already described and shown in the drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The scope of the present application is only limited by the appended claims.
