[0038] Combination Figure 1-9 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air conditioner, comprising: a first air duct 100, a second air duct 200 and a drainage channel 1000. The first air duct 100 is provided with an air outlet 400 and a drainage outlet 1001; the second air duct 200 is connected to the first air duct 100 through a connecting port 500; the drainage channel 1000 is arranged toward the drainage outlet 1001, and one end passes through the air conditioner and is connected to the atmosphere, and the other end is connected to the first air duct 100.

[0039] An air conditioner provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is adopted, in which air flows into the first air duct 100 from the second air duct 200, and is then discharged from the air outlet 400 or the drainage outlet 1001 on the first air duct 100. When the air flow in the first air duct 100 is discharged through the drainage outlet 1001, it will be guided through the drainage channel 1000 to mix the air flow. Through the coordination of the two air ducts, the drainage air duct, the air outlet 400 and the drainage outlet 1001, the form of air flow discharge is improved to meet the user's needs for rich and diverse air supply modes.

[0040] Optionally, a damper 1002 is provided in the drainage channel 1000. In this way, the drainage channel 1000 can be opened or closed by the damper 1002, so as to control the opening or closing of drainage.

[0041] Optionally, the air outlet 400 includes: a first air outlet 401 and a second air outlet 402. The first air outlet 401 is arranged at the upper part of the first air duct 100; the second air outlet 402 is arranged at the lower part of the first air duct 100. In this way, the airflow in the first air duct 100 is discharged through the upper end and the lower end of the air conditioner, which is conducive to improving the air outlet effect and meeting the diverse air supply needs of users.

[0042] Optionally, a protective net is provided on the air outlet 400. In this way, the protective net can prevent foreign matter such as dust from entering the air outlet 400 and entering the air conditioner through the air outlet 400, thereby causing a malfunction.

[0043] Optionally, the protective net is provided with circular meshes, so that the airflow in the first air duct 100 is discharged through the circular meshes, and the wind resistance of the circular meshes is small, so that the airflow can be smoother and the airflow resistance can be reduced.

[0044] Optionally, the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 are of the same size. In this way, the airflow discharged from the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 is the same, which avoids large fluctuations in the airflow and improves the stability of airflow discharge.

[0045] Optionally, the drainage outlet 1001 is arranged between the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402. In this way, when the airflow in the second air duct 200 flows into the first air duct 100 through the connecting port 500 and is discharged through the drainage outlet 1001, it will drive the airflow at the drainage outlet 1001, and then drive the airflow in the drainage channel 1000, so that the airflow is mixed, and the mixed airflow is more comfortable. The drainage outlet 1001 is arranged between the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402, so that the airflow blown out of the drainage outlet 1001 is mixed again with the airflow discharged from the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 during the flow process, so that the overall airflow entering the room is more comfortable, which is conducive to improving the comfort of air conditioning use.

[0046] Optionally, the air outlet 1001 is arranged at the center point between the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402. In this way, the first air outlet 401, the air outlet 1001, and the second air outlet 402 can discharge air into the room from different positions, such as high, medium, and low, thereby reducing dead angles for air discharge and preventing some air discharge from being blocked by obstacles, thus affecting the indoor temperature regulation effect, and thus improving the overall air discharge effect of the air conditioner.

[0047] Optionally, the air outlet 1001 is provided with an air guide grille. In this way, the mixed airflow is divided by the air guide grille, so that the airflow is mixed more thoroughly, the blown airflow is more comfortable, and the comfort of the air conditioner is improved.

[0048] Optionally, the connecting port 500 includes: a first connecting port 501 and a second connecting port 502. The first connecting port 501 is arranged toward the first air outlet 401; the second connecting port 502 is arranged toward the second air outlet 402. In this way, the first connecting port 501 is arranged toward the first air outlet 401, so that the airflow in the second air duct 200 flows along the direction toward the first air outlet 401 after passing through the first connecting port 501, and the airflow flows more continuously and smoothly, and the second connecting port 502 is arranged toward the second air outlet 402, so that the airflow in the second air duct 200 flows along the direction toward the second air outlet 402 after passing through the second connecting port 502, and the airflow flows more continuously and smoothly, thereby improving the continuity and smoothness of the airflow at the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402, maintaining the continuity of the air outlet of the air conditioner, and improving the comfort of the air conditioner.

[0049] Optionally, the communication port 500 and the air outlet 400 are located at the same horizontal plane. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 can enter the first air duct 100 through the communication port 500 and then be discharged through the air outlet 400, so that the airflow flows continuously and smoothly.

[0050] Optionally, the communication port 500 further includes: a third communication port 503 and a fourth communication port 504. The third communication port 503 is arranged at one side of the drainage channel 1000; the fourth communication port 504 is arranged at the other side of the drainage channel 1000. In this way, when the airflow in the second air duct 200 enters the first air duct 100 through the third communication port 503 and the fourth communication port 504, the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 will be driven to flow toward the drainage outlet 1001, so that the airflow blown out of the first air duct 100 is mixed with the airflow led out of the drainage channel 1000, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow and meeting the rich and diverse air supply needs of users.

[0051] Optionally, the third communication port 503 is disposed on the upper side of the drainage channel 1000. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 is passed into the first air duct 100 from the upper side of the drainage channel 1000, and the negative pressure generated by the side drives the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 and mixes with the airflow, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow.

[0052] Optionally, the fourth communication port 504 is disposed at the lower side of the drainage channel 1000. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 is passed into the first air duct 100 from the lower side of the drainage channel 1000, and the negative pressure generated by the side drives the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 and mixes with the airflow, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow.

[0053] Optionally, the third communication port 503 and the fourth communication port 504 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the drainage channel 1000. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 can flow into the first air duct 100 through the third communication port 503 and the fourth communication port 504 synchronously, thereby maintaining the stability of the airflow on both sides of the drainage channel 1000, which is conducive to the airflow entering the first air duct 100 through the third communication port 503 and the fourth communication port 504 to drive the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 and mix with it, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow.

[0054] Optionally, the air conditioner further includes: a baffle 300. The baffle 300 is disposed on a side of the connecting port 500 facing the second air duct 200, and one end of the baffle 300 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second air duct 200, and the other end is located at the first side of the connecting port 500 in the case of the first position, and is located at the second side of the connecting port 500 in the case of the second position. In this way, the opening and closing state of the connecting port 500 is regulated by the baffle 300, and the airflow in the second air duct 200 is guided to flow into the first air duct 100. By adjusting the position of the baffle 300, the airflow in the second air duct 200 can have different forms of entering the first air duct 100, thereby meeting the rich and diverse air supply requirements of users.

[0055] Optionally, one end of the baffle 300 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second air duct 200 through the rotating structure 600. In this way, the baffle 300 rotates on the inner wall of the second air duct 200, changing the flow angle of the airflow entering the first air duct 100 from the second air duct 200, thereby changing the flow direction of the airflow, which is conducive to improving the diversity of the flow direction of the airflow and meeting the rich and diverse air supply needs of users.

[0056] Optionally, the rotating structure 600 is in the same horizontal plane as the center of the connecting port 500. In this way, the distance that the baffle 300 moves upward to the first side of the connecting port 500 is the same as the distance that the baffle 300 moves downward to the second side of the connecting port 500, thereby improving the stability of the airflow in the second air duct 200 when it flows to the first air duct 100 through the connecting port 500. At the same time, by rotating the baffle 300 to change its inclination angle, the flow angle of the airflow flowing into the first air duct 100 can be adjusted, thereby improving the diversity of the airflow direction.

[0057] Optionally, the rotating structure 600 includes: a rotating shaft 601 and a shaft hole 602. The shaft hole 602 is fixed on the inner wall of the second air duct 200; the rotating shaft 601 is connected to both ends of the baffle 300 and can be movably inserted into the shaft hole 602. In this way, the baffle 300 can stably control the flow angle and direction of the airflow entering from the second air duct 200 into the first air duct 100, improve the diversity of the airflow direction, and facilitate disassembly, installation and cleaning.

[0058] Optionally, one end of the rotating shaft 601 extends to the outside of the second air duct 200 and is connected to the driving motor 603. In this way, the end of the rotating shaft 601 extending outside the second air duct 200 is connected to the driving motor 603, and the driving motor 603 drives the rotating shaft 601 to rotate, thereby driving the baffle 300 to rotate and change its inclination angle, which is conducive to increasing the diversification of the air flow direction. At the same time, extending one end of the rotating shaft 601 to the outside of the second air duct 200 will not affect the installation structure inside the air conditioner, and the driving motor 603 can be disassembled and repaired and maintained separately, which is more convenient and quick, and is conducive to cost saving.

[0059] Optionally, the first side and the second side are two opposite sides of the communication port 500. In this way, when the baffle plate 300 swings relative to each other, it can contact the two opposite sides of the communication port 500 to open or close the communication port 500, and the flow angle and direction of the airflow from the second air duct 200 into the first air duct 100 can be controlled by swinging the baffle plate 300.

[0060] Optionally, the first side of the communication port 500 refers to the upper side of the communication port 500. In this way, the other end of the baffle 300 can swing to the upper side of the communication port 500, so that the baffle 300 has the first position, and then the airflow angle and direction of the airflow in the second air duct 200 when flowing into the first air duct 100 are changed by the different positions of the baffle 300, thereby improving the diversity of the airflow direction and meeting the rich and diverse air supply needs of users.

[0061] Optionally, the second side of the communication opening 500 refers to the lower side of the communication opening 500. In this way, the other end of the baffle 300 can swing to the lower side of the communication opening 500, so that the baffle 300 has a second position, and then the airflow angle and direction of the airflow in the second air duct 200 when flowing into the first air duct 100 are changed by the different positions of the baffle 300, thereby improving the diversity of the airflow direction and meeting the user's usage needs.

[0062] Optionally, both sides of the communication port 500 are provided with limit plates 005. In this way, the baffle 300 is swung between the limit plates 005 on both sides of the communication port 500, and the swing range of the baffle 300 is limited, so that the airflow in the second air duct 200 flows to the first air duct 100 at different flow angles, thereby improving the diversity of the airflow direction. At the same time, the limit plates 005 on both sides of the communication port 500 can also prevent the swing position of the baffle 300 from being offset, reduce the swing amplitude of the baffle 300, and make the baffle 300 swing in the area between the limit plates 005, thereby improving the swing accuracy of the baffle 300.

[0063] Optionally, the baffle 300 includes: a first baffle 301, a second baffle 302, a third baffle 303 and a fourth baffle 304. The first baffle 301 is arranged on the side of the first connecting port 501 facing the second air duct 200; the second baffle 302 is arranged on the side of the second connecting port 502 facing the second air duct 200; the third baffle 303 is arranged on the side of the third connecting port 503 facing the second air duct 200; and the fourth baffle 304 is arranged on the side of the fourth connecting port 504 facing the second air duct 200. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 is guided by the first baffle 301, the second baffle 302, the third baffle 303 and the fourth baffle 304, and its flow angle and direction are changed, so that the airflow has different flow directions, thereby meeting the rich and diverse air supply needs of users.

[0064] Optionally, it also includes: a shell 001 and a partition 002. The shell 001 defines an airflow channel; the partition 002 divides the airflow channel into a first air duct 100 and a second air duct 200. In this way, the airflow channel is defined by the shell 001, so that the internal structure design of the air conditioner is simplified, and installation, repair and maintenance are convenient. The airflow channel is divided into the first air duct 100 and the second air duct 200 by the partition 002. When the airflow enters the first air duct 100 from the second air duct 200 and is discharged through the drainage outlet 1001, it will drive the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 to flow, so that the airflow entering the first air duct 100 and the airflow introduced by the drainage channel 1000 are mixed, thereby improving the form of airflow discharge and meeting the diverse air supply needs of users.

[0065] Optionally, the housing 001 and the partition 002 are integrally formed. Thus, the housing 001 and the partition 002 are integrally formed to enhance the overall stability of the partition 002 inside the housing 001, and prevent the partition 002 from loosening due to vibration of the air conditioner, thereby causing a malfunction.

[0066] Optionally, the air conditioner further includes an air inlet channel 003. The second air duct 200 is connected to the outside of the air conditioner through the air inlet channel 003. In this way, it is convenient for the air outside the air conditioner to enter the second air duct 200 through the air inlet channel 003.

[0067] Optionally, a heat exchanger 004 is provided in the air inlet channel 003. In this way, the air introduced by the fan 800 can continuously enter the heat exchanger 004 for heat exchange, thereby providing cold and warm air for the room, and improving the working efficiency of the heat exchanger 004.

[0068] Optionally, the first air duct 100 and the second air duct 200 are arranged in parallel. In this way, the airflow in the second air duct 200 can enter the first air duct 100 and be discharged through the air outlet 400, making the flow of the airflow more coherent and smooth, and can also reduce the installation space of the first air duct 100 and the second air duct 200, which is convenient for installation, repair and maintenance, and is conducive to cost saving.

[0069] Optionally, the upper ends of the first air duct 100 and the lower ends of the second air duct 200 are in the same horizontal plane. In this way, by restricting the upper ends and lower ends of the first air duct 100 and the second air duct 200, the overall structures of the two are in the same horizontal plane, thereby making the airflow in the second air duct 200 enter the first air duct 100 more coherent and unobstructed.

[0070] Optionally, it further includes: a cover plate 700, which is disposed on one side of the air outlet 400 and is configured to open or close part or all of the air outlet 400. In this way, the opening or closing state of the air outlet 400 can be regulated by the cover plate 700, thereby changing the airflow discharge amount of the air outlet 400 to meet the conversion of various air supply modes.

[0071] Optionally, the cover plate 700 includes: a first cover plate 701. The first cover plate 701 is disposed at the first air outlet 401 and is configured to open or close part or all of the first air outlet 401.

[0072] Optionally, the first cover plate 701 is connected to the first driving mechanism 702, and is configured to drive the first cover plate 701 to open or close part or all of the first air outlet 401. In this way, the first cover plate 701, driven by the first driving mechanism 702, regulates the opening or closing state of the first air outlet 401, thereby changing the air outlet form of the first air outlet 401.

[0099] like Fig.14 As shown, in another example, the first baffle 301, the second baffle 302, the third baffle 303, and the fourth baffle 304 are all in the second position, that is, they are all open downward, the airflow in the upper air duct 201 goes down along the third baffle 303 through the third connecting port 503 into the first air duct 100, and then is guided through the guide channel 1000, mixed with the guided airflow and discharged from the guide outlet 1001, the airflow in the lower air duct 202 goes down along the second baffle 302 through the second connecting port 502 into the first air duct 100, and then is discharged through the second air outlet 402. In this way, the second air outlet 402 and the guide outlet 1001 exhaust air, and the overall wind direction is shifted downward, the cold air can be lifted downward during heating, and the guide outlet 1001 located in the middle discharges the mixed wind of the hot air flow and the indoor air flow, and the air discharge is more comfortable.

[0100] like Fig.15 As shown, in another example, the first baffle 301 and the third baffle 303 are in the first position, and the second baffle 302 and the fourth baffle 304 are in the second position, that is, the first baffle 301 and the third baffle 303 are opened upward, and the second baffle 302 and the fourth baffle 304 are opened downward. At this time, the airflow of the upper air duct 201 will go upward along the first baffle 301 through the first connecting port 501 into the first air duct 100, and then be discharged through the first air outlet 401, and the airflow in the lower air duct 202 will go downward along the second baffle 302 through the second connecting port 502 into the first air duct 100, and then be discharged through the second air outlet 402.

[0101] like Fig.16As shown, in another example, the damper 1002 in the drainage channel 1000 is opened, the first baffle 301 and the third baffle 303 are in the second position, and the second baffle 302 and the fourth baffle 304 are in the first position, that is, the first baffle 301 and the third baffle 303 are opened downward, and the second baffle 302 and the fourth baffle 304 are opened upward. At this time, the airflow in the upper air duct 201 will go downward along the third baffle 303 through the third connecting port 503 into the first air duct 100, and then be guided through the drainage channel 1000, mix with the guided airflow and discharge from the drainage outlet 1001. The airflow in the lower air duct 202 will go upward along the fourth baffle 304 through the fourth connecting port 504 into the first air duct 100, and then be guided through the drainage channel 1000, mix with the guided airflow and discharge from the drainage outlet 1001. In this way, the airflow in the upper air duct 201 and the lower air duct 202 only flows out from the drainage outlet 1001, and the cold air flowing out of the drainage outlet 1001 will mix with the air, making the airflow flow more uniform, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow flow, making people feel less cold, and enhancing the user experience; when the damper 1002 is in the open state, the airflow in the second air duct 200 flows into the first air duct 100 through the connecting port 500, which will drive the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 to flow, thereby making the second air duct 20 0 is mixed with the air flow in the drainage channel 1000 and discharged through the drainage outlet 1001. The mixed air flow enters the room and mixes with the indoor air again, which will be more comfortable. When the damper 1002 is in a closed state, since the damper 1002 is in a closed state, the air flow in the drainage channel 1000 is not fluid, the air flow in the second air duct 200 will not be mixed with the air flow in the drainage channel 1000, but will flow directly into the first air duct 100 through the connecting port 500 and be discharged into the room.
