[0096] like Fig.10As shown, in another example, when the first baffle 301 and the second baffle 302 are in the second position, and the third baffle 303 is in the third position, at this time, the airflow in the upper air duct 201 flows toward the first baffle 301 and the third baffle 303 at the same time under the action of the first centrifugal fan, and is discharged to the first air duct 100 through the first connecting port 501 and the third connecting port 503, and is exhausted through the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 at the same time, and the airflow in the lower air duct 202 flows toward the second baffle 302 and the third baffle 303 at the same time under the action of the second centrifugal fan, and is discharged to the first air duct 100 through the second connecting port 502 and the third connecting port 503, and is exhausted through the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 at the same time.

[0097] Combination Figure 11-14 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides another 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 the other end is connected to the first air duct 100.
[0098] 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.
[0099] 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.
[0100] 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.
[0101] 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.
[0102] 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 on one side of the drainage channel 1000; and the fourth communication port 504 is arranged on 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.
[0103] 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 thereby drives the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 and mixes with the airflow, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow.
[0104] 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 thereby drives the airflow in the drainage channel 1000 and mixes with the airflow, thereby improving the comfort of the airflow.
[0105] 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.
[0106] Optionally, the guide channel 1000 divides the second air duct 200 into an upper air duct 201 and a lower air duct 202, and fans 800 are arranged in both the upper air duct 201 and the lower air duct 202. In this way, by arranging fans 800 in the upper air duct 201 and the lower air duct 202, the fans 800 can control the airflow in the upper air duct 201 and the lower air duct 202 separately, so that the airflow generation and flow in the upper air duct 201 and the lower air duct 202 are not affected by each other, thereby ensuring the stability of the airflow.
[0107] like Fig.15 As shown, in one example, the first baffle 301, the second baffle 302, the third baffle 303, and the fourth baffle 304 are all in the first position, that is, they are all opened upward, the airflow in the upper air duct 201 goes upward along the first baffle 301 through the first connecting port 501 into the first air duct 100, and then goes out through the first air outlet 401, the airflow in the lower air duct 202 goes upward along the fourth baffle 304 through the fourth connecting port 504 into the first air duct 100, and then is guided through the guide channel 1000, mixed with the guided airflow and goes out from the guide outlet 1001. In this way, the first air outlet 401 and the guide outlet 1001 exhaust air, and the overall wind direction is offset upward, the cold airflow can be lifted upward during cooling, and the guide outlet 1001 in the middle exhausts the mixed wind of the cold airflow and the indoor airflow, and the airflow is more comfortable.
[0108] like Fig.16As 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.
[0109] like Fig.17 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. In this way, the air is discharged from the first air outlet 401 and the second air outlet 402 at the same time, and the air can be discharged from both the upper and lower parts at the same time, and the air discharge is more comfortable.
[0110] like Fig.18As 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.
