[0052] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0053] With the progress of society and the development of technology, consumers' demand for air conditioners is not only satisfied with simple refrigeration and heating, but also increasingly diversified. In the prior art, different directions of air outlet are mostly achieved by setting two movable baffles on the panel 10 or the outer shell 50 of the air conditioner, and adjusting the air outlet direction by adjusting the angle of the two baffles relative to the air outlet. This results in multiple narrow butt joints on the panel 10 or the outer shell 50 of the air conditioner, and dust is likely to accumulate in these positions for a long time, causing inconvenience to users during cleaning.

[0054] According to an aspect of the present application, an air conditioner panel 10 assembly is provided, comprising:

[0055] The panel 10 includes a first cover 11 and a second cover 12 . The first cover 11 defines a first air outlet 101 , which is connected to a first vent 21 of the air conditioner main unit 20 .

[0056] A first deflector 30 rotatably mounted on the first cover 11 , the second cover 12 facing the second vent 22 of the air conditioner 20 , and the first deflector 30 facing the first air outlet 101 ;

[0057] The drive assembly 40 includes a first drive mechanism 41 and a second drive mechanism 42. The first drive mechanism 41 is used to drive the first cover body 11 to rotate, so as to drive the second cover body 12 to open and close the second vent 22 of the air-conditioning host 20. The second drive mechanism 42 is used to drive the first deflector 30 to rotate, so as to open and close the first air outlet 101.

[0058] refer to Figures 1-6 As shown, the first air outlet 101 is controlled to be opened and closed by setting a first air guide plate 30 on the inner side of the panel 10 on the first cover body 11 of the panel 10, so that the first vent 21 is connected with the first air outlet 101 to realize the first air outlet mode, and the first cover body 11 is controlled to rotate by the second driving mechanism 42, thereby driving the second cover body 12 to open and close the second vent 22 to realize the second air outlet mode, thereby reducing the docking gap on the panel 10 caused by the two air guide plates, reducing the dust accumulation phenomenon of the panel 10 component during use, and improving the convenience of users during use.

[0059] As an example, the first cover 11 and the second cover 12 are integrally formed and connected to further reduce the connection gap between the panel 10 and the outside. Preferably, the first cover 11 faces the first air outlet surface of the air conditioner, and the second cover 12 faces the second air outlet surface of the air conditioner. The first air outlet surface can achieve upward air outlet, and the second air outlet surface can achieve downward air outlet. As an example, when the air conditioner is a wall-mounted air conditioner, the first cover 11 is the front of the air conditioner, and the second cover 12 extends toward the side of the air conditioner bottom shell. A bend is formed between the first cover 11 and the second cover 12 so that the second cover 12 can face the second vent 22 of the air conditioner main unit 20.

[0060] As an example, in an actual use scenario, the first vent 21 faces the first air outlet surface of the air conditioner, and the second vent faces the second air outlet surface of the air conditioner. When the air needs to be discharged from the first air outlet surface, the initial state is as follows: Figure 2 or Figure 3As shown, it is only necessary to control the second driving mechanism 42 to drive the first guide plate 30 to rotate, so that the second guide plate 60 rotates to the state of opening the first air outlet 101, so that the first vent 21 is connected to the first air outlet 101, and the first air outlet 101 is opened, and then the heat exchange gas is discharged to the first air outlet surface through the first air outlet 101. At this time, Figure 4 As shown, the second driving mechanism 42 can be used to control the first guide plate 30 to open the opening area of ​​the first air outlet 101, thereby controlling the air volume and wind speed, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0061] Preferably, the first guide plate 30 is controlled to open toward the outer surface of the first cover body 11 , so as to control the outlet angle of the heat exchange fluid on the first outlet surface by controlling the rotation angle of the first guide plate 30 , thereby further improving user convenience.

[0062] In another usage scenario, when the second air outlet needs to be realized, the initial state is as follows: Figure 2 or Figure 3 As shown, only the first drive device needs to be started, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first cover body 11 is rotated toward the side away from the second vent 22. The first cover body 11 and the second cover body 12 are connected as a whole, which drives the second cover body 12 to rotate toward the side away from the second vent 22, thereby opening the second vent 22 and realizing air outlet from the second air outlet surface.

The second air outlet 53 is connected to the first vent 21. By controlling the spacing distance between the end of the second cover body 12 and the open end 52 of the shell 50, the effective air outlet area of ​​the second air outlet 53 is controlled to improve convenience during actual use.

[0068] Preferably, there is a bending portion (not marked in the figure) between the first cover body 11 and the second cover body 12, and the heat exchange fluid is guided by the second cover body 12 and the first cover body 11, thereby achieving air outlet at different angles in the second air outlet side, further improving the comfort of use.
