[0050] The realization, functional features and advantages of the object of the present invention will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Detailed implementation manners

[0051] It should be noted that if the descriptions such as "first" and "second" are involved in the embodiments of the present invention, such descriptions of "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing throughout the text is that it includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, or solution B, or a solution that satisfies both A and B at the same time.

[0052] The present invention provides an air conditioner, which can be a floor-standing air conditioner, or a wall-mounted air conditioner, or a portable air conditioner or a window air conditioner. Hereinafter, the air conditioner is taken as an example of a floor-standing air conditioner for exemplary illustration.

[0053] In the embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 、 Figures 9 to 11 、 Figure 17 and Figure 19 shown, the air conditioner includes a main body 100, a lower panel 200 and a water tank 300. A heat exchange component 110 is arranged in the main body 100, and a receiving cavity 120 with an opening on one side is formed in the lower part of the main body 100. The lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100 to open or close the opening. The water tank 300 is installed on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200.

[0054] In this embodiment, the main body 100 extends substantially in the vertical direction, and the overall shape of the main body 100 can be cabinet-shaped, cylindrical, or other shapes. Specifically, the main body 100 can further include a housing and an air-conditioning fan component, an air outlet frame component, an electric control component, and an air treatment module installed in the housing. Among them, the housing can be composed of a front shell, a rear shell, a bottom shell, a top shell, etc.; the front shell is composed of one or more pieces, and an air-conditioning air outlet can be provided on the front shell, and an air outlet switch door is provided corresponding to the air-conditioning air outlet for opening or closing the air-conditioning air outlet; the rear shell is composed of one or more pieces, an air-conditioning air inlet is provided on the rear shell, an air inlet grille is provided at the air-conditioning air inlet, and columns are provided on both sides of the rear shell for installing and fixing the evaporator component, the air treatment module, and the electric control component. The air-conditioning fan component is a single cross-flow fan or a double cross-flow fan. An air heat exchange duct communicating the air-conditioning air inlet with the air-conditioning air outlet is formed in the upper part of the main body 100, and the heat exchange assembly 110 is installed in the air heat exchange duct. Specifically, the heat exchange assembly 110 can include a heat exchanger, and an indoor fan is used to drive air flow to enter the air heat exchange duct from the air inlet, and after heat exchange by the heat exchanger, it is blown out from the air outlet 123 to achieve the adjustment of the temperature of the indoor air. The air treatment module can include one or more of a fresh air module, a purification module 600, and a humidification module 400.

[0055] It can be understood that the accommodating cavity 120 is provided with an opening on one side. Specifically, it can be opened forward, to the left, to the right, or to the rear, and can be selected and designed according to actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here. Usually, the electric control component and the air treatment module are arranged in the accommodating cavity 120, so that the accommodating cavity 120 is provided with an opening on one side, which facilitates the maintenance personnel to wire the electric control component or repair the air treatment module from the opening, or facilitates the user to disassemble, replace, and clean the air treatment module from the opening, or clean the lower part of the main body 100. The lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100 to open or close the opening. Then, the lower end of the lower panel 200 can be rotatably connected to the main body 100 so that the lower panel 200 opens the opening from top to bottom, or the left end or the right end of the lower panel 200 can be rotatably connected to the main body 100 so that the lower panel 200 opens or closes the opening from the left or right side. The lower panel 200 can be adapted to the opening to better open and close the opening.

[0056] The lower panel 200 and the main body 100 can be rotatably connected through a rotating shaft 230a and a shaft hole. When the lower panel 200 is opened to form an opening, the lower panel 200 can be suspended on the main body 100 through the rotating shaft 230a. In this way, it is convenient for the operator to perform wiring, clean the air treatment module or the lower part of the main body 100 through the opening. At the same time, when operating, the lower panel 200 is suspended on the main body 100. Compared with the solution of directly disassembling the lower panel 200 for operation, the phenomenon that the lower panel 200 is knocked down and scratched is avoided. And when the lower panel 200 closes the opening, the operation is simple and fast, and it is not easy to have the phenomenon that the contour of the lower panel 200 is deformed due to inaccurate positioning, and the gap between the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 is uneven, which affects the appearance.

[0057] It can be understood that a humidification module 400 can be arranged in the accommodation cavity 120, and the water tank 300 is used to add water to the humidification module 400. A water tank installation position can be provided on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200 corresponding to the accommodation cavity 120 for installing the water tank 300. It can be understood that the water tank 300 can be fixedly installed on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200, or can be detachably installed on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200. When the lower panel 200 is closed, the water tank 300 is accommodated in the accommodation cavity 120. When the lower panel 200 is opened, the water tank 300 can be driven to rotate at the same time, so that the water tank 300 is transferred out of the accommodation cavity 120 through the opening. Thus, the water tank 300 can be filled with water without removing the lower panel 200. Compared with filling the water tank 300 by taking it out of the accommodation cavity 120, the operation is simple and more convenient for the user. At the same time, the water tank installation position on the inner side surface of the lower panel 200 facilitates the replacement of water in the water tank 300, and can effectively strengthen the structural strength of the lower panel 200, and there is no need to additionally design a reinforcing rib for controlling the radian of the lower panel 200.

[0058] In the air conditioner of the present invention, by providing an accommodation cavity 120 with an opening on one side at the lower part of the main body 100, the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100 to open or close the opening, and the water tank 300 is installed on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200. Then, when the lower panel 200 rotates to open the opening, it can be suspended on the main body 100, so as to facilitate the operation of the components in the accommodation cavity 120. And without disassembling the lower panel 200 and taking out the water tank 300 from the accommodation cavity 120, the water tank 300 can be filled with water, which greatly facilitates the user's operation and improves the use convenience. At the same time, the phenomenon of bumping and scratching during the disassembly of the lower panel 200 is avoided, and the operation of closing the opening of the lower panel 200 is simple and easy. Compared with reinstalling the removed lower panel 200 to the main body 100, it can avoid scratching other components of the main body 100, or the phenomenon that the gap between the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 is uneven due to inaccurate positioning, which affects the appearance.

[0059] In one embodiment, please refer toFigures 4 to 8 , Figure 11 and Figure 15 , the lower panel 200 is detachably connected to the main body 100. While the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100, the lower panel 200 is detachably connected to the main body 100, that is, when the lower panel 200 is rotated to a certain angle, the lower panel 200 can be detached from the main body 100. In this way, when it is necessary to perform a large-scale operation on the lower part of the main body 100, such as cleaning the interior of the accommodating cavity 120 in a large range, the lower panel 200 can also be detached from the main body 100, so as to avoid the lower panel 200 from hindering the user's operation, thereby improving convenience and user experience.

[0060] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 19 As shown, the opening is arranged forward, and the lower end of the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100.

[0061] In this embodiment, by setting the opening forward, the user can operate the lower part of the main body 100 from the front side of the air conditioner without moving the air conditioner, and the operation is more convenient and quick. It can be understood that the lower end of the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100, so when the lower panel 200 is opened, the top of the lower panel 200 is opened outward, and the bottom of the lower panel 200 extends into the inside of the main body 100, so that the user can add water to the water tank 300 from the top, or directly take out the water tank 300. Compared with taking the water tank 300 out of the accommodating chamber 120, the operation is simpler and faster. A avoidance space for the rotation of the lower panel 200 can be set below the main body 100, so that the rotation and opening of the lower panel 200 is more feasible. The size of the avoidance space can be designed according to the preset angle of the lower panel 200 to be rotated and opened. Usually, the preset angle for the lower panel 200 to be rotated and opened is 10° to 60°. Since the air conditioner is usually installed in the corner of the room, by rotating the lower panel 200 from top to bottom to open the opening, compared with rotating the lower panel 200 from left to right or from right to left to open the opening, it is not necessary to occupy the space on the left and right sides of the main body 100, and thus the opening can be opened for operation even when the space on the left and right sides of the main body 100 is small, without moving the air conditioner, making the operation simpler and more feasible. And by rotating the lower panel 200 from top to bottom to open the opening, the gravity of the lower panel 200 and the stopper 220 are used to fix the lower panel 200 at a preset angle below the main body 100, which can prevent the lower panel 200 from accidentally covering when the user operates, reducing safety hazards, and by opening the upper end of the lower panel 200, the user can observe the inside of the opening from top to bottom, so that the observation range is larger and the operation is more convenient.

[0062] For further information, please refer to Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 17 and Figure 19, an inner wall surface of the lower panel 200 is provided with a mounting groove 210 opening upward, and the water tank 300 is detachably mounted in the mounting groove 210. A water injection port 310 and / or a handle 320 are provided at the top of the water tank 300. Specifically, a mounting plate or a bracket can be provided on the inner wall surface of the lower panel 200, so that the mounting plate or the bracket and the inner wall surface of the lower panel enclose to form the mounting groove 210. The mounting plate or the bracket and the lower panel 200 can be integrally formed or separately formed. The size of the mounting groove 210 is slightly larger than the size of the water tank 300 to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the water tank 300 into the mounting groove 210. By setting the mounting position of the water tank as the mounting groove 210 with an upward opening at the top, when the lower panel 200 is opened, the water tank 300 is driven to rotate as a whole, and the top of the water tank 300 is exposed, so that the user can directly add water to the water tank 300 from the water injection port 310 without taking out the water tank 300 separately, which is convenient for the user to use. When it is necessary to take out the water tank 300, a handle 320 is provided at the top of the water tank 300, and the user can directly lift the water tank 300 upward, which is convenient and fast to operate and improves the user experience. It can be understood that when the lower panel 200 is opened from top to bottom to form an opening, when water needs to be added, the lower panel 200 only needs to be opened at a preset angle to add water to the water tank 300, without completely disassembling the lower panel 200 and taking out the water tank 300 from the accommodation cavity 120, thus simplifying the operation steps and improving the user convenience. The handle 320 of the water tank 300 can be an inward concave handle 320 or an outward convex handle 320. To save space, usually the handle 320 of the water tank 300 is an inward concave handle 320.

[0063] In one embodiment, as Figures 4 to 8 、 Figures 15 to 18 shown, one of the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 is provided with a limiting member 220, and the other is provided with a cooperating member 130 cooperating with the limiting member 220, so that the lower panel 200 can rotate and be fixed to a preset angle.

[0064] In this embodiment, the limiting member 220 can be any one of a limiting pin, a limiting shaft, a limiting block, a limiting protrusion, a hook, a telescopic rod, a limiting rod, etc. And the mating member 130 can be any one of a limiting groove, a limiting surface, a limiting protrusion, etc. It can be understood that the lower panel 200 has a rotating end, and the rotating end is rotatably connected to the main body 100. Then the limiting member 220 can be arranged at the rotating end of the lower panel 200 or at the end opposite to the rotating end, as long as the lower panel 200 can be rotated to a preset angle and fixed at the preset angle through the cooperation of the limiting member 220 and the mating member 130. It can be understood that the limiting member 220 and the mating member 130 can be arranged to be detachably connected, combined with the solution that the main body 100 and the lower panel 200 are detachably connected. When the lower panel 200 can be fixed to the preset angle, it can also be detached from the main body 100 as a whole. By making the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 cooperate through the limiting member 220 and the mating member 130, so that the lower panel 200 can rotate and be fixed to the preset angle, the lower panel 200 can be prevented from shaking, which is convenient for the user to add water to the water tank 300. Specifically, the lower panel 200 has a rotating end, and the rotating end is rotatably connected to the main body 100. One of the rotating end and the main body 100 is provided with the limiting member 220, and the other is provided with the mating member 130 that cooperates with the limiting member 220. By arranging the limiting member 220 or the mating member 130 at the rotating end of the lower panel 200, the rotating end of the lower panel 200 is in limiting cooperation with the main body 100. Compared with arranging the limiting member 220 or the mating member 130 at the end of the lower panel 200 opposite to the rotating end, the length of the limiting member 220 can be shortened, the limiting member 220 can be prevented from hindering the user's operation, and the limiting member 220 can be hidden in the main body 100, thereby avoiding the exposure of the limiting member 220 and improving the user experience.

[0065] Specifically, the preset angle is greater than or equal to 10 degrees and less than or equal to 60 degrees. The preset angle can specifically be 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 28 degrees, 30 degrees, 36 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 55 degrees, 60 degrees, etc. When the preset angle is less than 10 degrees, the opening angle of the lower panel 200 is too small, so it is not easy for the user to operate the lower part of the main body 100 from the opening. When the preset angle is greater than 60 degrees, the opening angle of the lower panel 200 is too large, increasing the overall operation space required. By making the preset angle greater than or equal to 10 degrees and less than or equal to 60 degrees, while being able to add water to the water tank 300 and operate the internal components of the accommodating cavity 120 through the opening, the operation space is made more reasonable. Of course, when the lower panel 200 opens the opening from the left and right sides, the preset angle can be greater than 60 degrees, or even greater than 90 degrees.

[0066] Further, one of the lower end of the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 is provided with a rotating shaft 230a, and the other is provided with a rotating groove 140a for installing the rotating shaft 230a. By connecting the lower end of the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 through the rotating shaft 230a and the rotating groove 140a, the connection is stable and reliable and easy to achieve. Specifically, rotating shafts 230a are provided on both sides of the lower panel 200, and rotating grooves 140a that cooperate with the rotating shafts 230a are provided on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 120. It can be understood that since the thickness of the lower panel 200 is relatively thin, by providing the rotating shafts 230a at both side ends of the lower panel 200, compared with providing the rotating groove 140, the structural strength of the lower panel 200 will not be reduced. In other embodiments, the rotating groove 140a can also be provided at the side end of the lower panel 200, and the rotating shaft 230a can be provided on the side wall surface of the main body 100. In still other embodiments, the rotating shaft 230a can also be provided at the lower end of the lower panel 200, and the rotating groove 140a structure can be provided at the bottom end of the main body 100.

[0067] Combined with the above embodiment in which the rotating shaft 230a is provided at the side end of the lower panel 200, further, please refer to Figures 4 to 8 , limiters 220 are provided on both sides of the lower panel 200. The limiters 220 are located above the rotating shaft 230a. The cooperating member 130 includes a travel groove 131 formed on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 120. When the lower panel 200 is opened to a preset angle, the limiter 220 abuts against the groove wall of the travel groove 131. During the process of opening and closing the opening of the lower panel 200, the limiter 220 slides back and forth in the travel groove 131, so that the lower panel 200 can open and close the opening along a preset track, avoiding dislocation. And when the limiter 220 abuts against the groove wall of the travel groove 131, the groove wall of the travel groove 131 can limit the movement of the limiter 220, so that the lower panel 200 can be opened and fixed to the preset angle.

[0068] In one embodiment, a sliding groove 150 is further provided on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 120. The sliding groove 150 is opened forward, and the extending direction of the sliding groove 150 forms an angle with the vertical direction as the preset angle. The travel groove 131, the rotating groove 140a and the sliding groove 150 are communicated to allow the lower panel 200 to be removed from the sliding groove 150.

[0069] In this embodiment, the sliding groove 150 communicates with the rotating groove 140a, and the sliding groove 150 opens forward. Then, the sliding groove 150 is arranged obliquely upward and forward, and the included angle between the extending direction of the sliding groove 150 and the vertical direction is a preset angle. At the same time, since the stroke groove 131 also communicates with the sliding groove 150, in this way, the rotating shaft 230a can move from the rotating groove 140a to the sliding groove 150, and the limiting member 220 can move from the stroke groove 131 to the sliding groove 150, and both the rotating shaft and the limiting member 220 can be separated from the main body 100 from the opening of the sliding groove 150. When it is necessary to disassemble the lower panel 200, only need to rotate the lower panel 200 to a preset angle and pull it out obliquely upward, then the rotating shaft 230a and the limiting member 220 can be separated from the sliding groove 150, and further the separation between the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 can be realized. This operation is simple and easy to perform, and the disassembly and assembly are convenient. Specifically, the lower edge of the opening of the sliding groove 150 is arranged higher than the lower edge of the stroke groove 131. Then, when the limiting member 220 rotates to the sliding groove 150, it can abut against the inner wall surface of the sliding groove 150 and will not directly escape from the opening of the sliding groove 150. Furthermore, the lower panel 200 can be fixed at a preset angle after being opened.

[0070] Further, the stroke groove 131 includes an avoidance groove 131a protruding inward from the sliding groove 150, and a limiting groove 131b communicating with the avoidance groove 131a. The limiting groove 131b is located on the front side of the avoidance groove 131a; when the panel is opened to a preset angle, the limiting member 220 abuts against the groove wall of the limiting groove 131b; when the panel is closed, the limiting member 220 is accommodated in the avoidance groove 131a.

[0071] In this embodiment, when the lower panel 200 closes the opening, the rotating shaft 230a is located in the rotating groove 140, and the limiting member 220 is accommodated in the avoidance groove 131a; when the lower panel 200 opens the opening, with the rotating shaft 230a as the rotation center, the limiting member 220 moves from the avoidance groove 131a to the limiting groove 131b. The limiting groove 131b can be a part of the sliding groove 150, or can be a groove separately provided and communicating with the sliding groove 150. Optionally, the limiting groove 131b is made to be a part of the sliding groove 150. Then, when the lower panel 200 opens the opening, with the rotating shaft 230a as the rotation center, the limiting member 220 moves from the avoidance groove 131a to the sliding groove 150, so that it is more convenient for the limiting member 220 and the rotating shaft to be pulled out from the opening together.

[0072] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figure 11, the limiting member 220 is a limiting shaft 221 spaced apart from the rotating shaft 230a. The limiting member 220 being the limiting shaft 221 is simple in structure and easy to form and manufacture while facilitating detachment from the sliding groove 150. To facilitate the simultaneous detachment of the limiting shaft 221 and the rotating shaft 230 from the sliding groove 150, the limiting shaft 221 is usually located directly above the rotating shaft 230a. In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, the limiting member 220 is a limiting strip 222 integrally provided with the rotating shaft 230a, and the avoidance groove 131a communicates with the rotating groove 140. Then the bottom end of the limiting strip 222 is rotatably connected to the rotating groove 140. The extending direction of the limiting strip 222 is the same as the extending direction of the lower panel 200, so that when the lower panel 200 rotates to a preset angle, it abuts against the inner wall surface of the sliding groove 150 through the limiting strip 222, thereby enabling the lower panel 200 to be fixedly opened at the preset angle. When the lower panel 200 needs to be disassembled, it only needs to be pulled out obliquely upward to extract the limiting strip 222 from the sliding groove 150, and then it is convenient to disassemble the lower panel 200 from the main body 100.

[0073] In another embodiment, please refer to Figures 15 to 18 , the main body 100 includes a chassis 170, a convex column 171 is provided on the chassis 170, a rotating shaft 230b is provided at the upper end of the convex column 171, a rotating buckle 240 is provided at the lower end of the lower panel 200, and the rotating buckle 240 forms a rotating groove 140b that rotates in cooperation with the rotating shaft 230b.

[0074] In this embodiment, it can be understood that a plurality of convex columns 171 are specifically provided, so that the convex columns 171 are opposite to each other in pairs, and a rotating shaft 230b is provided between two opposite convex columns 171. Then the rotating shaft 230b can be provided as one or a plurality of rotating shafts 230b can be spaced apart along the width direction of the lower panel 200. By providing the rotating shaft 230b on the convex column 171 of the chassis 170, when the rotating buckle 240 of the lower panel 200 cooperates with the rotating shaft 230b, the rotating buckle 240 has a rotating space, and thus the rotation of the lower panel 200 can be realized. By making the lower end of the lower panel 200 cooperate with the rotating shaft 230b on the chassis 170 through the rotating buckle 240, compared with making the side end of the lower panel 200 rotatably connected to the side wall surface of the main body 100, it is more convenient for the user to disassemble and assemble the lower panel 200, and it is also more convenient for forming and manufacturing. At the same time, the avoidance space required for the rotation of the lower panel 200 is small. Further, the rotating groove 140b is a notch groove for separating the lower panel 200 from the main body 100. In this way, the rotating shaft 230b can be rotatably installed in the rotating groove 140b through the notch or detached from the rotating groove 140b through the notch, which is more convenient for disassembling and assembling the lower panel 200.

[0075] Further, the limiting member 220 includes a bolt 223, the mating member 130 includes a jack 132, the jack 132 is provided on the chassis 170, and the bolt 223 is provided at the lower end of the lower panel 200. When the lower panel is opened, the bolt 223 abuts against the inner wall of the jack 132. It can be understood that the size of the jack 132 is larger than that of the bolt 223. During the rotation of the lower panel 200, when the end of the bolt 223 abuts against the inner wall surface or the bottom of the jack 132, the lower panel 200 is limited and fixed, so that the lower panel 200 can be opened and fixed at a preset angle. The limiting method of the bolt 223 and the jack 132 is more stable and reliable and easy to implement.

[0076] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 9 to 11 , an air inlet, an air outlet 123 and an air treatment air duct 124 connecting the air inlet and the air outlet 123 are defined in the accommodation cavity 120. A humidification module 400 is arranged in the air treatment air duct 124, and the water tank 300 is used to supply water to the humidification module 400. Specifically, the humidification module 400 is a wet film and / or an atomization component.

[0077] In this embodiment, it can be understood that the humidification module 400 further has a water tank. The atomization component is placed in the water tank, so that the water tank 300 supplies water to the water tank to realize humidification of the room. The atomization component can be ultrasonic atomization. The water tank 300 can be arranged on the upper side of the wet film, then the wet film can be put into the water tank, and water makes the whole wet film wet through the water absorption effect of the wet film itself from the lower end of the wet film. The water tank 300 can also be arranged on the lower side of the wet film. The water is guided to the water tank at the lower end of the wet film or to the upper side of the wet film through a water pump to directly wet the wet film, so as to realize humidification of the indoor air. Generally, a fan 500 is further arranged in the air treatment air duct 124 to drive the air flow to quickly enter the air treatment air duct 124 from the air inlet, and blow out from the air outlet 123 after passing through the humidification module 400, so as to improve the humidification efficiency. Specifically, an aromatherapy component can also be added to the air treatment air duct 124.

[0078] Combined with the above embodiment provided with the air treatment air duct 124, further, please refer to Figures 9 to 11 again, a fan 500 and at least one purification module 600 located on the air outlet side of the fan 500 are further arranged in the air treatment air duct 124, and the purification module 600 is located above the water tank 300.

[0079] In this embodiment, the number of purification modules 600 can be one, two, three, etc. When at least two purification modules 600 are provided, at least two purification modules 600 can be stacked on top of each other along the air outlet direction of the air handling duct 124. The purification module 600 can specifically include one or at least two of a filter module, a plasma module, a negative ion module, and an electrostatic dust removal module. The filter module can include one or more of a HEPA net, an activated carbon filter, a plasma integrated net, a photocatalyst filter, and a formaldehyde filter. The functions of multiple purification modules 600 can be the same or different. The purification module 600 can sterilize, remove dust, filter gaseous pollutants, etc. from the indoor air, thereby purifying the air. It can be understood that a fresh air module can also be provided in the air handling duct 124. The fresh air module can be provided with an independent fresh air fan 500, or can share a fan 500 with multiple purification modules 600 and a humidification module 400. Specifically, the air inlet includes a fresh air inlet 121 communicating with the outside and a return air inlet 122 communicating with the inside. Then, the fresh air from the outside can be introduced into the air handling duct 124 through the fresh air inlet 121 by the fan 500 and blown out through the air outlet 123. The fresh air module can also include a fresh air filter assembly, a fresh air duct assembly, etc. The air outlet channel of the fresh air module and the air outlet channel of the purification module 600 can be communicated with each other or isolated from each other, so that after the fresh air enters the air handling duct 124, it can be discharged without being purified by the purification module 600, which can extend the service life of the purification module 600. In some embodiments, the fresh air module can also have an exhaust mode, that is, it can discharge the indoor air flow to the outside.

[0080] The purification module 600 can circulate and purify the indoor air flow, can also purify the fresh air flowing in from the outside, and can also purify the indoor air flow and the fresh air from the outside at the same time. When the purification module 600 separately circulates and purifies the indoor air flow, the fresh air inlet 121 is closed and the return air inlet 122 is opened, so that the indoor air flow enters the air handling duct 124 through the return air inlet 122 and is blown out through the air outlet 123 after being purified by the purification module 600. By providing the purification module 600 in the air handling duct 124 and making the air inlet include the fresh air inlet 121 and the return air inlet 122 communicating with the inside, the entire air conditioner can have functions such as humidification, purification, and fresh air introduction through one fan 500, thereby meeting the different usage requirements of users, and the multi-functional modules are integrated, occupying less space.

[0081] Further, as Figures 9 to 11As shown, the purification module 600 is inclined upward with the opening facing upward, and the purification module 600 is slidably installed in the accommodation cavity 120 through the opening. Then the extraction direction of the purification module 600 is inclined upward and facing the opening. An installation groove or an installation bracket can be provided in the accommodation cavity 120 for installing the purification module 600. It can be understood that the purification module 600 is installed in the accommodation cavity 120 in an inclined upward direction from the inside to the outside, so that the extraction direction of the purification module 600 is inclined upward and facing the opening. After the lower panel 200 is opened, the user can directly extract the purification module 600 obliquely upward through the opening, improving the convenience of user operation. Combining the embodiment in which the lower end of the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100 and the lower panel 200 opens the opening from top to bottom, when the preset angle at which the lower panel 200 is opened is relatively small, the purification module 600 can also be conveniently taken out, thereby reducing the operation space. To further improve the convenience of taking out the purification module 600, the included angle between the extraction direction of the purification module 600 and the vertical direction can be made less than or equal to the preset angle at which the lower panel 200 is opened.

[0082] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 13 , the lower end of the lower panel 200 is rotatably connected to the main body 100, and the upper end of the lower panel 200 is connected to the main body 100 through a buckle and / or a magnetic attraction member. The magnetic attraction member can be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. When the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 are connected by a permanent magnet, the cost is low, it is easy to disassemble, the operation feel is good, and the user experience effect is excellent. Specifically, a magnetic attraction member can be provided on one of the main body 100 and the lower panel 200, and a magnetic attraction member or a sheet metal part can be provided on the other, so that the lower panel 200 can be automatically closed and fastened after covering the opening. When the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 are connected by an electromagnet, the magnetism of the electromagnet can be controlled by controlling the on / off of the circuit of the electromagnet, so that the lower panel 200 can be automatically opened or closed, avoiding misoperation by the user or accidental opening of the lower panel 200. When the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 are connected by a buckle, no tool assistance is required, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, and the connection is more stable and reliable. Of course, the upper end of the lower panel 200 and the main body 100 can also be detachably connected by screws or other structural parts. The upper end of the lower panel 200 is connected to the main body 100 through a buckle and / or a magnetic attraction member, which makes the lower panel 200 more stable when closing the opening without affecting the convenience of opening the lower panel 200, thereby preventing the lower panel 200 from accidentally opening.

[0083] In one embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3As shown, a part of the outer wall surface of the lower panel 200 is recessed to form a groove 270. An air outlet 123 is provided on the bottom wall surface of the groove 270, and a handle 280 is arranged in the groove 270. Generally, the handle 280 is provided at the upper end of the lower panel 200. By providing the handle 280 on the lower panel 200, it is convenient for users to operate. The handle 280 is arranged in the groove 270, and the air outlet 123 is also arranged in the groove 270. Specifically, an air outlet grille is provided at the air outlet 123. Then, the handle 280 and the air outlet grille are integrated. The integrated structure of the handle 280 and the air outlet grille greatly improves the appearance and eliminates the problem that the structure of the handle 280 affects the appearance.

[0084] The above are only alternative embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present invention by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
