Simultaneously, one end of the light display window is positioned opposite the reflector, meaning the light from the light strip faces away from the light display window. This allows the light from the light strip to be reflected onto the light display window via the reflector, thereby increasing the optical path. Increasing the optical path improves the uniformity of the light, thus enhancing the uniformity of the light on the light display window. Furthermore, by setting the light strip's light and the light display window facing away from each other, the light strip assembly can effectively increase the optical path within a limited space, eliminating the need to increase the distance between the light strip and the light display window to increase the optical path, thus reducing the space occupied by the light strip assembly. Additionally, by setting the light strip's light and the light display window facing away from each other, i.e., the LED beads facing away from the light display window, the LED beads are prevented from being easily visible when the light display window is thin or transparent, thus avoiding affecting the aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0056] Air conditioners, as necessities of life, are increasingly diverse in their functions. An air conditioner includes an indoor unit, which in turn includes a casing, typically with a waistline in the middle. To help users identify the air conditioner's operating mode, a light display window is usually located at the waistline. Inside this window is a light strip assembly; the color of the light changes according to the air conditioner's operating mode and is displayed through the light display window, allowing users to determine the operating mode based on the displayed light color.

[0057] However, in related technologies, LED strip assemblies typically include an LED panel with LED beads positioned facing the light display window. When the light display window is thin or transparent, light shining on it can easily cause uneven lighting, making the LED beads visible and affecting the aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0058] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a light strip assembly. A reflector is disposed on the light strip box, and the light strip is placed within a mounting cavity between the mounting plate and the light strip box. The light strip and the reflector are positioned opposite each other, allowing the light from the light strip to illuminate the reflector. Simultaneously, one end of the light display window is positioned opposite the reflector, meaning the light from the light strip faces away from the light display window. This allows the light from the light strip to be reflected onto the light display window via the reflector, preventing direct illumination of the reflector and thus increasing the optical path. Increasing the optical path improves the uniformity of the light, thereby enhancing the uniformity of the light on the light display window.

[0059] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0060] This disclosure provides an air conditioner, which includes an indoor unit. The indoor unit includes a housing, and a light strip assembly is disposed on the housing.

[0061] Reference Figures 1 to 15 The light strip assembly includes a mounting plate 100, a light strip box 200, a light display window 300, and a light strip 400.

[0062] The mounting plate 100 has a mounting opening 160; the LED strip box 200 is fixed to the mounting plate 100, forming a mounting cavity 260 between the LED strip box 200 and the mounting plate 100, and the mounting cavity 260 is connected to the mounting opening 160; the LED strip box 200 includes a reflector 210, which is disposed opposite to the mounting plate 100; the light display window 300 includes a connector 310 and a display panel 320, the connector 310 being disposed within the mounting cavity 260 and connected to the mounting opening 160. The mounting plate 100 is connected, the display panel 320 is connected to the connector 310 and is disposed in the mounting port 160, and one end of the display panel 320 extends into the mounting cavity 260 and is disposed opposite to the reflector 210; the light strip 400 is located in the mounting cavity 260 and connected to the connector 310, the light strip 400 is disposed opposite to the reflector 210, and the light from the light strip 400 shines on the reflector 210 so that the light is reflected by the reflector 210 onto the display panel 320.

[0063] Based on the above, by setting a reflector 210 on the LED strip box 200 and placing the LED strip 400 between the mounting plate 100 and the LED strip box 200, with the LED strip 400 and reflector 210 facing each other and the light from the LED strip 400 illuminating the reflector 210, and simultaneously, one end of the light display window 300 is positioned opposite the reflector 210, meaning the light from the LED strip 400 faces away from the light display window 300, thus allowing the light from the LED strip 400 to be reflected by the reflector 210 onto the light display window 300. This avoids the light directly illuminating the reflector 210, thereby increasing the optical path. Increasing the optical path helps improve the uniformity of the light, thus improving the uniformity of the light on the light display window 300.

[0064] For example, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the mounting plate 100 is fixedly mounted on the housing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. The mounting plate 100 may include a mounting plate body 110, a first extension plate 120, and a second extension plate 130. The first extension plate 120 and the second extension plate 130 are arranged opposite each other at both ends of the mounting plate body 110 along the length direction of the light strip 400, so that the mounting plate body 110, the first extension plate 120, and the second extension plate 130 form the aforementioned mounting opening 160. In addition, the first extension plate 120 and the second extension plate 130 are respectively provided with insertion slots, and the openings of the two insertion slots are both oriented towards the mounting opening 160, that is, the insertion slots are connected to the mounting opening 160.

[0065] Furthermore, both sides of the mounting plate body 110 are arc-shaped surfaces. The first extension plate 120 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped surface on one side of the mounting plate body 110 by a reinforcing rib, and the second extension plate 130 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped surface on the other side of the mounting plate body 110 by another reinforcing rib. Simultaneously, there are gaps between the first extension plate 120, the second extension plate 130, and the arc-shaped surfaces of the mounting body, thereby forming an auxiliary groove between the first extension plate 120 and the mounting plate body 110, and also forming an auxiliary groove between the second extension plate 130 and the mounting plate 100. The reinforcing ribs can be disposed within these auxiliary grooves. This structure enhances the overall strength of the mounting plate 100. For example, the mounting plate body 110, the first extension plate 120, and the second extension plate 130 can be an integrally formed structure.

[0066] For example, the mounting plate 100 may be provided with a first fixing member 140 and a second fixing member 150, wherein the first fixing member 140 and the second fixing member 150 may be disposed opposite to each other at both ends of the mounting plate body 110 along the length direction of the light strip box 200, or the first fixing member 140 may be disposed on the first extension plate 120 and the second fixing member 150 may be disposed on the second extension plate 130, that is, the first fixing member 140 and the second fixing member 150 are respectively disposed opposite to both ends of the light strip box 200.

[0067] In this embodiment, as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the first fixing member 140 includes a first column 141 and a first baffle 142. The first column 141 is vertically disposed on the first extension plate 120, and the first column 141 is provided with a first connecting hole. The first baffle 142 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the first column 141. Exemplarily, there can be two first baffles 142, respectively disposed on both sides of the axis of the first column 141. The second fixing member 150 includes a second column 151 and a second baffle 152. The second column 151 is vertically disposed on the second extension plate 130, and the second column 151 is provided with a second connecting hole. The second baffle 152 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the second column 151. Exemplarily, there can be two second baffles 152, respectively disposed on both sides of the axis of the second column 151.

[0068] For example, the mounting plate 100 may be provided with a first mounting groove 114, which extends along the length of the light strip 400, and the opening of the first mounting groove 114 faces the reflector 210; and the first mounting groove 114 is adjacent to the mounting port 160. At the same time, the mounting plate 100 is also provided with a second mounting groove 115, which is located on one side of the first mounting groove 114, and the second mounting groove 115 may be arranged parallel to the first mounting groove 114.

[0069] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a first fixing plate 111 and a second fixing plate 112 may be provided on the mounting plate 100. The first fixing plate 111 is located on one side of the mounting opening 160 and extends along the length direction of the light strip 400. The second fixing plate 112 is opposite to the first fixing plate 111 and spaced apart, so that the first fixing plate 111, the second fixing plate 112 and the mounting plate 100 form a first mounting groove 114.

[0070] In addition, a third fixing plate 113 may be provided on the mounting plate 100. The third fixing plate 113 is parallel to and spaced apart from the second fixing plate 112, so that a second mounting groove 115 is formed between the mounting plate 100, the second fixing plate 112 and the third fixing plate 113. The second mounting groove 115 extends along the length direction of the light strip 400.

[0071] Alternatively, it can be understood that, along the direction perpendicular to the length of the light strip 400, the first fixing plate 111, the second fixing plate 112, and the third fixing plate 113 are arranged side by side and spaced apart, so that the first mounting groove 114 is formed between the first fixing plate 111 and the second fixing plate 112, and the second mounting groove 115 is formed between the second fixing plate 112 and the third fixing plate 113.

[0072] For example, the third fixing plate 113 may have an opening, and a second claw 116 may be provided at the opening. This second claw 116 includes a locking plate, which is disposed in the opening in a direction perpendicular to the third fixing plate 113. The locking plate is provided with a locking flange, which extends toward the light strip box 200. In addition, the second claw 116 and the third fixing plate 113 may be integrally formed, and the integrally formed structure makes the locking plate and the third fixing member more stable.

[0073] like Figure 9 As shown, the LED strip box 200 may include a first side plate 220, a second side plate 230, and a reflector 210.

[0074] The reflector 210 is positioned opposite to the mounting plate 100 and the light strip 400, and also opposite to the second end 322 of the light display window 300. This allows the light from the light strip 400 to directly illuminate the reflector 210 and be reflected back to the second end 322 of the light display window 300, enabling the user to observe the color of the light. Simultaneously, this structure effectively increases the optical path, thereby significantly improving the uniformity of the light. For example, the reflector 210 and the light strip 400 can be arranged parallel to each other, and the length of the reflector 210 can be greater than the length of the light strip 400. This ensures that the light from the light strip 400 is uniformly reflected back to the light display window 300 through the reflector 210, further enhancing the uniformity of the light.

[0075] For example, one end face of the reflector 210 can be a rough surface, with the rough surface facing the light strip 400 so that the light shines on the rough surface. By setting one end face of the reflector 210 to a rough surface, the light can be scattered, thereby further improving the uniformity of the light.

[0076] Continue to refer to Figure 5 One end of the first side plate 220 is connected to the reflector 210, and the other end extends into the mounting opening 160. A receiving gap exists between the first side plate 220 and the first fixing plate 111. Simultaneously, the second side plate 230 is positioned opposite the first side plate 220. One end of the second side plate 230 is connected to the reflector 210, and the other end extends towards the mounting plate 100 and is provided with a limiting plate, which is engaged within the second mounting groove 115. It can be understood that the first side plate 220, the reflector 210, and the second side plate 230 are connected sequentially to form a light strip box 200 with an opening at one end. The opening of the light strip box 200 faces the mounting plate 100, thereby forming a mounting cavity 260 between the light strip box 200 and the mounting plate 100.

[0077] In this embodiment, a groove 270 is provided on the first side plate 220. The groove 270 is located near the mounting port 160 and is connected to the mounting port 160. The first end 321 of the light display window 300 is inserted into this groove 270 and is in contact with the end face of the first fixing plate 111, so that the light display window 300, the first side plate 220 and the first fixing plate 111 are tightly fitted together, preventing light from shining out through gaps and causing uneven light display.

[0078] For example, the second side plate 230 is vertically connected to the limiting plate, and the structure of the limiting plate matches the structure of the second mounting groove 115, so that the limiting plate can be locked in the second mounting groove 115, thereby further improving the stability of the connection between the light strip box 200 and the mounting plate 100. In addition, the limiting plate is provided with a snap-fit ​​block 232, and the snap-fit ​​block 232 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​groove is correspondingly provided with the second snap-fit ​​claw 116 on the third fixing plate 113, and the snap-fit ​​flange on the second snap-fit ​​claw 116 is locked in the snap-fit ​​groove, thereby making the light strip box 200 more securely connected to the mounting plate 100.

[0079] In this embodiment, as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the LED strip box 200 may further include a third side plate 240 and a fourth side plate 250. The third side plate 240 and the fourth side plate 250 are respectively disposed at both ends of the LED strip box 200 along the length direction of the LED strip 400. The third side plate 240 is sequentially connected to one end of the first side plate 220, the reflector 210 and the second side plate 230, and the fourth side plate 250 is sequentially connected to the other end of the first side plate 220, the reflector 210 and the second side plate 230. Thus, the LED strip box 200 is formed by connecting the reflector 210, the first side plate 220, the second side plate 230, the third side plate 240 and the fourth side plate 250, so that the LED strip box 200 has only one opening, and this opening is set towards the mounting plate 100.

[0080] For example, the third side plate 240 may be provided with a first connecting plate 241, a second connecting plate 242, and a third connecting plate 243 connected in sequence, and the first connecting plate 241, the second connecting plate 242, and the third connecting plate 243 form a first limiting cavity 244; at the same time, the second connecting plate 242 is provided with a third connecting hole. The first limiting cavity 244 cooperates with the first column 141, and the first column 141 is located in the first limiting cavity 244, and the first connecting hole and the third connecting hole are correspondingly provided. The second connecting plate 242 and the first column 141 can be fixedly connected by bolts, thereby further improving the stability between the light strip box 200 and the mounting plate 100. At the same time, the first baffle 142 abuts against one end of the first connecting plate 241, and the second baffle 152 abuts against one end of the second connecting plate 242. This structure can limit the light strip box 200, thereby facilitating the installation of the light strip box 200 in an accurate position.

[0081] Additionally, the fourth side plate 250 may be provided with a fourth connecting plate 251, a fifth connecting plate 252, and a sixth connecting plate 253 connected in sequence, forming a second limiting cavity 254. Simultaneously, the fifth connecting plate 252 is provided with a fourth connecting hole. The second limiting cavity 254 cooperates with the second column 151, and the second column 151 is located within the second limiting cavity 254. The third connecting hole corresponds to the fourth connecting hole, allowing the fifth connecting plate 252 and the second column 151 to be fixedly connected by bolts, thereby further improving the stability between the LED strip box 200 and the mounting plate 100. Furthermore, the third baffle abuts against one end of the fourth connecting plate 251, and the fourth baffle abuts against one end of the sixth connecting plate 253. This structure provides a limiting function for the LED strip box 200, facilitating its installation in an accurate position.

[0082] like Figure 11 As shown, the light display window 300 includes a connector 310 and a display panel 320.

[0083] The connector 310 is fixedly installed in the first mounting groove 114, the display panel 320 is located outside the first mounting groove 114, and the first end 321 of the display panel 320 extends into the mounting cavity 260 and is arranged opposite to the reflector 210, and the second end 322 extends to the outside of the mounting port 160.

[0084] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the connector 310 may include a first plate 311, a second plate 312, and a support plate 313. The first plate 311 is disposed within the first mounting groove 114 and abuts against the end face of the second fixing plate 112. The support plate 313 is disposed within the first mounting groove 114, with one end connected to the first fixing plate 111 and the other end connected to the first plate 311. The second plate 312 is disposed outside the first mounting groove 114, with one end connected to the first plate 311 and the other end connected to the display panel 320. A light strip 400 is disposed on the second plate 312. For example, multiple support plates 313 may be used, and these support plates 313 may be evenly arranged sequentially along the length of the first mounting groove 114. By using these support plates 313, the first plate 311 can abut against the second fixing plate 112, thereby allowing the connector 310 to be fixed within the first mounting groove 114.

[0085] Continue to refer to Figure 5The first end 321 of the display panel 320 is disposed within the receiving gap between the first side plate 220 and the first fixing plate 111, and is respectively attached to the surfaces of the first fixing plate 111 and the second fixing plate 112, so that the light display window 300, the first side plate 220 and the first fixing plate 111 are tightly fitted together, thereby avoiding uneven light display caused by light shining through the gap; at the same time, the second end 322 of the display panel 320 extends to the outside of the mounting opening 160. In addition, the first end 321 of the display panel 320 has a flange, which is located in the groove 270 of the first side plate 220 and is opposite to the reflector 210. The reflector 210 can reflect light onto this flange, and then emit light from the second end 322 of the display panel 320 through this flange, so that the user can observe the color of the light. In addition, the horizontal plane of the upper end surface of the flange is higher than the upper end surface of the first side plate 220, so that the flange can support the required components.

[0086] In addition, two plug-in plates 340 are provided on the display panel 320. The two plug-in plates 340 are arranged opposite each other at both ends of the display panel 320 along the length of the light strip 400, and the two plug-in plates 340 are respectively plugged into the plug-in slots on the corresponding mounting plate 100, so that the light display window 300 is more stably set on the mounting plate 100.

[0087] For example, the light display window 300 may further include two first claws 330, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the second plate 312 along the length direction of the light panel 420, and the two first claws 330 are respectively located at both ends of the light panel 420 and engaged with the light panel 420. The first claw 330 may include a block and a head, the block extending toward the light panel 420, and the block and the head being perpendicularly connected, forming a slot between the block and the head, the slot being disposed toward the light strip 400.

[0088] like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the light strip 400 may include a light panel 420, LED beads 430, and a lampshade 410.

[0089] The lampshade 410 is connected to the second plate 312 and extends along the length of the light strip box 200; the lamp plate 420 is disposed inside the lampshade 410 and both ends of the lamp plate 420 extend to the outside of the lampshade 410 and are connected to the second plate 312; there are multiple lamp beads 430 disposed inside the lampshade 410 and the multiple lamp beads 430 are evenly disposed on the lamp plate 420 along the length of the lamp plate 420 and the lamp beads 430 are facing the reflector 210.

[0090] In this embodiment, the lampshade 410 is located on the flange of the first end 321 of the display panel 320, and one side of the lampshade 410 is in contact with the end face of the second plate 312. At the same time, both ends of the lamp plate 420 extend into their corresponding slots and abut against their corresponding clips, so that the light strip 400 can be stably set on the first end 321 of the light display window 300.

[0091] Based on the above, by setting a reflector 210 on the LED strip box 200 and placing the LED strip 400 between the mounting plate 100 and the LED strip box 200, with the LED strip 400 and reflector 210 facing each other, the light from the LED strip 400 is illuminated by the reflector 210. Simultaneously, one end of the light display window 300 is positioned opposite the reflector 210, meaning the light from the LED strip 400 faces away from the light display window 300. This allows the light from the LED strip 400 to be reflected by the reflector 210 onto the light display window 300, thereby increasing the optical path. Increasing the optical path improves the uniformity of the light, thus enhancing the uniformity of the light on the light display window 300. Furthermore, by positioning the light from the LED strip 400 facing away from the light display window 300, the LED strip assembly can effectively increase the optical path within a limited space, eliminating the need to increase the distance between the LED strip 400 and the light display window 300 to increase the optical path, thereby reducing the space occupied by the LED strip assembly. Meanwhile, by setting the light strip 400 and the light display window 300 to face away from each other, that is, setting the LED beads 430 and the light display window 300 to face away from each other, the LED beads 430 are not easily seen when the light display window 300 is thin or transparent, thus avoiding affecting the aesthetics of the air conditioner.
