[0045] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0046] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides various specific processes and examples of materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0047] The following describes the middle partition 100 of the air conditioner 1000 and the air conditioner 1000 according to the embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. The middle partition 100 can be used in the air conditioner 1000, and can also be used in other devices with refrigeration functions and that can generate condensed water. To simplify the description, the following text only uses the middle partition 100 for the air conditioner 1000 as an example for description. In addition, it should be noted that the specific type of the air conditioner 1000 according to the embodiment of the present invention is not limited, and can be a split machine or an integrated machine. The split machine can be a split wall-mounted machine or a split cabinet machine, and the integrated machine can be a mobile air conditioner or a window air conditioner. To simplify the description, only a mobile air conditioner is used as an example for description.
[0048] In some specific examples, the air conditioner 1000 may include a housing and a heat exchange module, the heat exchange module is arranged in the housing, and the housing has an air outlet. The heat exchange module may include a condenser 300, an evaporator 200 and a fan assembly, and the housing may also have an air inlet. When the air conditioner 1000 is working, the fan assembly may drive the indoor airflow to enter the housing from the air inlet and flow out of the housing from the air outlet. The airflow exchanges heat with the evaporator 200 or the condenser 300 in the housing, and thus, the airflow blown out from the air outlet is the airflow after heat exchange. Here, when the air conditioner 1000 is cooling, the airflow blown out from the air outlet at this time is the cold airflow after heat exchange with the evaporator 200, which can cool the room; when the air conditioner 1000 is heating, the airflow blown out from the air outlet at this time is the hot airflow after heat exchange with the condenser 300, which can heat the room.
[0049] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the middle partition 100 of the air conditioner 1000 according to the embodiment of the present invention, wherein the evaporator 200 generates condensed water when working, and the middle partition 100 is used to receive the condensed water generated by the evaporator 200, and the middle partition 100 is arranged above the condenser 300. The middle partition 100 may include a plate body 1 and a guide rib group 2.
[0050] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 The disk body 1 is provided with a water receiving area 11 for receiving condensed water from the evaporator 200. The disk body 1 is also provided with a plurality of water outlets 1111. The condensed water flows to the condenser 300 through the water outlets 1111. The side wall of the disk body 1 is provided with a water inlet 12. The guide rib group 2 is provided on the disk body 1. The guide rib group 2 includes at least one guide rib 21. The guide rib group 2 is configured to guide the condensed water in the disk body 1 to at least a part of the water outlets 1111.
[0051] It is understandable that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 200 can flow to the water receiving area 11 on the tray 1, and the condensed water in the water receiving area 11 can flow to the condenser 300 through the multiple water outlets 1111 on the tray 1, and the condensed water can assist the condenser 300 in dissipating heat. Figure 1 As shown, as a possible implementation method, the air conditioner 1000 may further include a chassis 500, the condenser 300 is located in the chassis 500, and the condensed water flowing to the condenser 300 will flow along the condenser 300 to the chassis 500, and a water pump 400 may be provided in the chassis 500, and a connecting pipe 600 may be connected between the water pump 400 and the water inlet 12 of the middle partition 100, and the water pump 400 may drive the condensed water in the chassis 500 to return to the middle partition 100 through the connecting pipe 600. The condensed water returning to the middle partition 100 may continue to flow to the multiple water outlets 1111, and then flow from the multiple water outlets 1111 to the condenser 300, and then flow to the chassis 500, thereby, the condensed water can circulate between the middle partition 100 and the chassis 500, and in the process of circulation, the condensed water continuously passes through the condenser 300, so as to continuously assist the condenser 300 in heat dissipation.
[0052] On the one hand, by using condensed water to assist the condenser 300 in dissipating heat, the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000 can be improved, and at the same time, the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000 can be improved, thereby playing a role in energy saving; on the other hand, when the condensed water passes through the condenser 300, part of the condensed water vaporizes and dissipates into the air, thereby consuming part of the condensed water from the evaporator 200, extending the water storage time of the chassis 500, thereby extending the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000, reducing the number of times users drain water, and making the product design more user-friendly.
[0053] The condenser 300 is located below the middle partition 100 to facilitate the condensed water to flow from the water outlet 1111 of the middle partition 100 to the condenser 300 , thereby increasing the efficiency of the condensed water cooling the condenser 300 .
[0054] The guide rib group 2 may include one guide rib 21 or multiple guide ribs 21. For example, the guide rib 21 may extend in the direction from the water inlet 12 to the water outlet 1111. When the guide rib group 2 includes one guide rib 21, the guide rib 21 may guide at least part of the condensed water entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12 to at least part of the water outlet 1111. Specifically, for example, there may be two water outlets 1111, and the guide rib is located between the two water outlets 1111. The condensed water may flow along the guide rib 21 to the two water outlets 1111. For another example, there may be more than two water outlets 1111, but the guide rib 21 is only provided at one water outlet 1111 or between two water outlets 1111. In this case, the guide rib 21 may guide the condensed water to the corresponding one water outlet 1111 or two water outlets 1111.
[0055] When the guide rib group 2 includes multiple guide ribs 21, for example, the guide rib group 2 may include two guide ribs 21, and multiple guide channels 211 may be enclosed between the two guide ribs 21 and between a single guide rib 21 and other components on the middle partition 100, and condensed water may flow along the guide channels 211 to at least a portion of the water outlets 1111. Of course, the guide rib group 2 may also have other settings, such as the guide rib group 2 may also include three guide ribs 21, four guide ribs 21, five guide ribs 21, or six guide ribs 21, etc., and multiple guide ribs 21 may enclose guide channels 21 in various forms, and there is no excessive restriction here.
[0056] In addition, a guide channel 211 may be provided at multiple water outlets 1111 , in which case the guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to each water outlet 1111 ; a guide channel 211 may also be provided at some of the water outlets 1111 , in which case the guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to the corresponding water outlet 1111 .
[0057] According to the middle partition 100 of the air conditioner 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, by setting the guide rib group 2 on the disk body 1, the guide rib group 2 is configured to guide the condensed water in the disk body 1 to at least a part of the water outlet 1111. Therefore, the guide rib group 2 can realize efficient and rapid drainage of the condensed water to at least a part of the water outlet 1111, which can accelerate the circulation of the condensed water. On the one hand, it can improve the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300 and save energy; on the other hand, it can accelerate the vaporization of the condensed water, and then more condensed water can be consumed, and the water holding time of the bottom plate 500 can be extended; moreover, the guide rib group 2 can facilitate the condensed water to be divided into multiple streams flowing to the water outlet 111, thereby, the guide rib group 2 can facilitate the uniform distribution of the condensed water, and then the condensed water can flow to the water outlets 111 at different positions, so that the water outlet 111 is uniform, and the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300 is further improved. At the same time, the middle partition 100 of the present invention is drained by the guide ribs 21. Compared with the sealed water box in the prior art for water distribution, the middle partition 100 of the present invention does not require ultrasonic welding and other processes, so the manufacturing process is relatively simple, and the hidden danger of water leakage caused by poor sealing of the sealed water box can be avoided.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the disk body 1 is provided with a plurality of water outlet areas 111 arranged at intervals, each water outlet area 111 is provided with a plurality of water outlets 1111, and the guide rib group 2 is a plurality of groups, and each water outlet area 111 is provided with a group of the guide rib group 2 for guiding the flow direction of the condensed water. It can be understood that the plurality of water outlet areas 111 can facilitate the arrangement of more water outlets 1111, thereby increasing the outflow amount and outflow efficiency of the condensed water from the middle partition 100, thereby accelerating the circulation efficiency of the condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, prolonging the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water, thereby further prolonging the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000, and reducing the number of times the user drains water. There are multiple groups of guide rib groups 2 so that each water outlet area 111 has a corresponding guide rib group 2 for drainage, thereby accelerating the flow efficiency of condensed water on the middle partition 100 and further improving the circulation efficiency of condensed water.
[0059] In some specific examples, such as Figure 5As shown, the water outlet areas 111 may be two areas opposite to each other at both ends of the middle partition 100, and the water inlet 12 is located on the side wall between the water outlet areas 111 of the middle partition 100, and a group of guide rib groups 2 are provided between the water inlet 12 and each water outlet area 111, thereby, after the condensed water flows into the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, it can flow along the guide rib group 2 to the corresponding water outlet area 111, and a condenser 300 can be correspondingly arranged under each water outlet area 111, and the condensed water flowing out from the water outlet 1111 of the water outlet area 111 can directly flow to the corresponding condenser 300, thereby assisting in heat dissipation of the corresponding condenser 300.
[0060] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, a corresponding group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged corresponding to a portion of the water outlets 1111 in each water outlet area 111, and each group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged adjacent to the water inlet 12. Therefore, the guide rib groups 2 corresponding to a portion of the water outlets 1111 can guide the condensed water to the portion of the water outlets 1111, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow to a portion of the water outlets 1111 and accelerating the flow efficiency of the condensed water.
[0061] In addition, each group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged near the water inlet 12, which makes it convenient for the condensed water to be guided to the water outlet 1111 by the guide rib group 2 after entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, thereby further accelerating the circulation of the condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, extend the time that the chassis 500 contains water, thereby further extending the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000 and reducing the number of times users drain water.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the middle partition 100 further includes a water dividing rib 3, which is disposed on the disc body 1 and adjacent to the water inlet 12. The water dividing rib 3 divides the condensed water flowing in from the water inlet 12 into multiple streams to flow to multiple water outlet areas 111. The water dividing rib 3 is disposed on the disc body 1 and adjacent to the water inlet 12 so that the condensed water can be divided into multiple streams by the water dividing rib 3 after entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow to multiple water outlet areas 111 respectively.
[0063] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3As shown, the water-dividing rib 3 includes two water-dividing surfaces 31 arranged opposite to each other, and the two water-dividing surfaces 31 extend obliquely in a direction away from the water inlet 12 and away from each other. As a feasible way, the water outlet area 111 can be two located on both sides of the water-dividing rib 3, one of the water-dividing areas 111 is located on one side of one of the water-dividing surfaces 31 of the water-dividing rib 3, and the other water-dividing area 111 is located on one side of the other water-dividing surface 31 of the water-dividing rib 3, and the water-dividing surface 31 on the side corresponding to the water-dividing area 111 can guide the condensed water to the water-dividing area 111. The two water-dividing surfaces 31 extend obliquely in a direction away from the water inlet 12 and away from each other, which can facilitate the guidance of the condensed water to the corresponding water outlet area 111.
[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the middle partition 100 may further include a first rib 4, the first rib 4 defines a guide area 41, a plurality of water outlets 1111 are provided in the guide area 41, and the guide rib group 2 guides the condensed water toward the guide area 41. It can be understood that the first rib 4 can facilitate defining the guide area 41, and the guide area 41 can be used to accumulate condensed water. Specifically, after the condensed water flows into the guide area 41 through the guide rib group 2, the first rib 4 can confine the condensed water in the guide area 41, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow out of the middle partition 100 from the plurality of water outlets 1111 in the guide area 41.
[0065] Furthermore, if Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the first rib 4 is a plurality of guide areas 41 defined by a plurality of intervals, and each guide area 41 is correspondingly provided with a guide channel 211 defined by at least one guide rib 21. Here, there can be one or more guide ribs 21, and one guide rib 21 can define a guide channel 211 with other components on the middle partition 100 on both sides of the guide rib 21. When there are multiple guide ribs 21, a guide channel 211 can be formed between two guide ribs 21, and at the same time, the guide rib 21 located on the outside of the multiple guide ribs 21 can define a guide channel 211 with other components on the middle partition 100. The guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to the corresponding guide area 41.
[0066] By setting a plurality of spaced guide areas 41, it is convenient to set more water outlets 1111, thereby increasing the outflow amount and outflow efficiency of condensed water from the middle partition 100, thereby accelerating the circulation efficiency of condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, prolong the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water, thereby further prolonging the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000 and reducing the number of times the user drains water. The plurality of guide rib groups 2 can facilitate each water outlet area 111 to have a corresponding guide rib group 2 for drainage, thereby accelerating the flow efficiency of condensed water on the middle partition 100 and further improving the circulation efficiency of condensed water.
[0067] In addition, the multiple guide areas 41 are arranged at intervals to facilitate the condensed water to flow more evenly to the condenser 300. Specifically, the multiple guide areas 41 can be arranged at intervals along the length extension direction of the condenser 300. As a result, the heat dissipation of the condenser 300 can be made more uniform, thereby further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, the bottom wall of the tray body 1 is provided with a guide surface 13 extending obliquely downward toward the water outlet 1111. Thus, the condensed water can flow from the water inlet 12 to the water outlet 1111.
[0069] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the disc body 1 is provided with a blocking portion 5 arranged around the edge of each water outlet 1111 to prevent impurities in the condensed water from flowing toward the water outlet 1111. Since there are impurities in the condensed water, the blocking portion 5 can block the impurities in the condensed water so that the impurities cannot flow out of the water outlet 1111, thereby making the condensed water flowing onto the condenser 300 clean, thereby preventing impurities from flowing onto the condenser 300 to reduce the life of the condenser 300 or even damage the condenser 300.
[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 3As shown, the disk body 1 is provided with an overflow port 6, and the water inlet end surface 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the water inlet end surface of each blocking portion 5 away from the water outlet 1111. It should be noted that when the water outlet 1111 of the middle partition 100 is blocked or the water outlet 1111 cannot meet the water discharge of condensed water, the condensed water can flow out from the overflow port 6, thereby accelerating the condensed water to flow out of the middle partition 100 and flow to the condenser 300, thereby preventing the condensed water from overflowing from the surroundings of the middle partition 100 and flowing to other components of the air conditioner 1000 to damage the air conditioner 1000. The water inlet end surface 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the water inlet end surface of each blocking portion 5 away from the water outlet 1111, which can prevent the condensed water from flowing out of the overflow port 6 under normal circumstances (when the water outlet 1111 can meet the water discharge of condensed water).
[0071] Furthermore, the water inlet end surface 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the water inlet end surface of each blocking portion 5 away from the water outlet 1111 by no less than 5 mm.
[0072] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, a portion of the edge of the water outlet 1111 is provided with a non-circular water-breaking portion 7 protruding upward, and the water-breaking portion 7 punctures the condensed water flowing toward the water outlet 1111. This can destroy the surface tension of the condensed water, thereby causing the condensed water to flow out of the water outlet 1111. Further, referring to Figure 3 Each water outlet 1111 is provided with a plurality of spaced water-breaking portions 7 . Thus, more condensed water can be punctured, and the surface tension of more condensed water can be destroyed, thereby causing more condensed water to flow out from the water outlet 1111 .
[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the middle partition 100 also includes a first fixing portion 8 suitable for fixing the evaporator 200. The first fixing portion 8 is connected to the tray body 1. The first fixing portion 8 has a first fixing groove 81. The first fixing groove 81 extends along the height direction of the evaporator 200. The evaporator 200 is arranged on the tray body 1, and at least part of the evaporator 200 extends into the first fixing groove 81. Here, the height direction of the evaporator 200 can be understood as the height direction of the air conditioner 1000, that is, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 Up and down directions shown.
[0074] It is understandable that at least part of the evaporator 200 extends into the first fixing groove 81 so that the first fixing groove 81 can limit the evaporator 200. Since the first fixing groove 81 extends along the height direction of the evaporator 200, the first fixing groove 81 can limit more parts of the evaporator 200 in the height direction of the evaporator 200. Therefore, the evaporator 200 can be installed on the tray body 1 more stably, and the evaporator 200 can be prevented from tipping over and causing a malfunction of the evaporator 200. In addition, the condensed water generated by the evaporator 200 can also flow to the water receiving area 11 in the tray body 1 through the inner wall of the first fixing groove 81.
[0075] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the middle partition 100 further includes a second fixing portion 9 suitable for fixing the condenser 300, the second fixing portion 9 is connected to the plate body 1, and the second fixing portion 9 has a second fixing groove 91, the second fixing groove 91 extends along the height direction of the condenser 300, and at least part of the condenser 300 extends into the second fixing groove 91. Here, the height direction of the condenser 300 can be understood as the height direction of the air conditioner 1000, that is, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 Up and down directions shown.
[0076] It can be understood that at least a portion of the condenser 300 extends into the second fixing groove 91 so that the second fixing groove 91 can limit the condenser 300. Since the second fixing groove 91 extends along the height direction of the condenser 300, the second fixing groove 91 can limit more parts of the condenser 300 in the height direction of the condenser 300. Therefore, the condenser 300 can be installed on the chassis 500 more stably, and the condenser 300 can be prevented from tipping over and causing a malfunction of the condenser 300.
[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, part of the plate 1 is recessed upward to form a evacuation space for evacuation, and the opening of the evacuation space is downward. The evacuation space can be used to evade other components of the air conditioner 1000, that is, other components of the air conditioner 1000, such as electronic components of the air conditioner, disinfection and sterilization modules, etc., can be located in the evacuation space, thereby saving the installation space of the air conditioner 1000, so that the structure of the air conditioner 1000 is compact and the product volume of the air conditioner 1000 can be reduced.
[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2As shown, the portion of the disk body 1 that is concave upward is the avoidance portion 14, and the side of the avoidance portion 14 that is away from the avoidance space has a guide surface 141 that extends downwardly and obliquely. It should be noted that the air duct housing of the air conditioner 1000 can be installed above the avoidance portion 14, and the air flow flows in the air duct housing. When the air flow is a cold air flow, condensed water may form on the outer wall of the air duct housing, and the condensed water will fall to the side of the avoidance portion 14 that is away from the avoidance space. Therefore, the guide surface 141 that extends downward can guide the condensed water to flow obliquely downward into the water receiving area 11 of the disk body.
[0079] Refer to the following Figure 1-Figure 5 The middle separator 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail. It is worth noting that the following description is only for exemplary purposes and is not intended to limit the present invention.
[0080] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the evaporator 200 generates condensed water when working, and the middle partition 100 is used to receive the condensed water generated by the evaporator 200. The middle partition 100 is arranged above the condenser 300. The middle partition 100 may include a plate body 1 and a guide rib group 2.
[0081] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 The disk body 1 is provided with a water receiving area 11 for receiving condensed water from the evaporator 200. The disk body 1 is also provided with a plurality of water outlets 1111. The condensed water flows to the condenser 300 through the water outlets 1111. The side wall of the disk body 1 is provided with a water inlet 12. The guide rib group 2 is provided on the disk body 1. The guide rib group 2 includes at least one guide rib 21. The guide rib group 2 is configured to guide the condensed water in the disk body 1 to at least a part of the water outlets 1111.
[0082] It can be understood that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 200 can flow to the water receiving area 11 on the disk body 1, and the condensed water in the water receiving area 11 can flow to the condenser 300 through multiple water outlets 1111 on the disk body 1. On the one hand, the condensed water can assist the condenser 300 in dissipating heat, thereby improving the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, and at the same time, it can also improve the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, thereby playing a role in energy saving; on the other hand, when the condensed water passes through the condenser 300, part of the condensed water vaporizes and dissipates into the air, thereby consuming part of the condensed water from the evaporator 200, extending the time for the chassis 500 to hold water, thereby extending the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000, reducing the number of times users drain water, and making the product design more humane.
[0083] The condenser 300 is located below the middle partition 100 to facilitate the condensed water to flow from the water outlet 1111 of the middle partition 100 to the condenser 300 , thereby increasing the efficiency of the condensed water cooling the condenser 300 .
[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, as a possible implementation method, the air conditioner 1000 may further include a chassis 500, the condenser 300 is located in the chassis 500, and the condensed water flowing to the condenser 300 will flow along the condenser 300 to the chassis 500, and a water pump 400 may be provided in the chassis 500, and a connecting pipe 600 may be connected between the water pump 400 and the water inlet 12 of the middle partition 100, and the water pump 400 may drive the condensed water in the chassis 500 to return to the middle partition 100 through the connecting pipe 600. The condensed water returning to the middle partition 100 may continue to flow to the multiple water outlets 1111, and then flow from the multiple water outlets 1111 to the condenser 300, and then flow to the chassis 500, thereby, the condensed water can circulate between the middle partition 100 and the chassis 500, and in the process of circulation, the condensed water continuously passes through the condenser 300, so as to continuously assist the condenser 300 in heat dissipation.
[0085] The guide rib group 2 may include one guide rib 21 or multiple guide ribs 21. For example, the guide rib 21 may extend in the direction from the water inlet 12 to the water outlet 1111. When the guide rib group 2 includes one guide rib 21, the guide rib 21 may guide at least part of the condensed water entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12 to at least part of the water outlet 1111. Specifically, for example, there may be two water outlets 1111, and the guide rib is located between the two water outlets 1111. The condensed water may flow along the guide rib 21 to the two water outlets 1111. For another example, there may be more than two water outlets 1111, but the guide rib 21 is only provided at one water outlet 1111 or between two water outlets 1111. In this case, the guide rib 21 may guide the condensed water to the corresponding one water outlet 1111 or two water outlets 1111.
[0086] When the guide rib group 2 includes multiple guide ribs 21, for example, the guide rib group 2 may include two guide ribs 21, and multiple guide channels 211 may be enclosed between the two guide ribs 21 and between a single guide rib 21 and other components on the middle partition 100, and condensed water may flow along the guide channels 211 to at least a portion of the water outlets 1111. Of course, the guide rib group 2 may also have other settings, such as the guide rib group 2 may also include three guide ribs 21, four guide ribs 21, five guide ribs 21, or six guide ribs 21, etc., and multiple guide ribs 21 may enclose guide channels 21 in various forms, and there is no excessive restriction here.
[0087] In addition, a guide channel 211 may be provided at multiple water outlets 1111 , in which case the guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to each water outlet 1111 ; a guide channel 211 may also be provided at some of the water outlets 1111 , in which case the guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to the corresponding water outlet 1111 .
[0088] The middle partition 100 of the present invention is provided with a guide rib group 2 on the disk body 1, and the guide rib group 2 is configured to guide the condensed water in the disk body 1 to at least a part of the water outlet 1111. Therefore, the guide rib group 2 can realize efficient and rapid drainage of the condensed water to at least a part of the water outlet 1111, which can accelerate the circulation of the condensed water. On the one hand, it can improve the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300 and save energy; on the other hand, it can accelerate the vaporization of the condensed water, and then more condensed water can be consumed, extending the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water. At the same time, the middle partition 100 of the present invention is drained by the guide ribs 21. Compared with the water distribution of the sealed water box in the prior art, the middle partition 100 of the present invention does not require ultrasonic welding and other processes, so the manufacturing process is relatively simple, and the hidden danger of water leakage caused by poor sealing of the sealed water box can be avoided.
[0089] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the disk body 1 is provided with a plurality of water outlet areas 111 arranged at intervals, each water outlet area 111 is provided with a plurality of water outlets 1111, and the guide rib group 2 is a plurality of groups, and each water outlet area 111 is provided with a group of the guide rib group 2 for guiding the flow direction of the condensed water. It can be understood that the plurality of water outlet areas 111 can facilitate the arrangement of more water outlets 1111, thereby increasing the outflow amount and outflow efficiency of the condensed water from the middle partition 100, thereby accelerating the circulation efficiency of the condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, prolonging the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water, thereby further prolonging the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000, and reducing the number of times the user drains water. There are multiple groups of guide rib groups 2 so that each water outlet area 111 has a corresponding guide rib group 2 for drainage, thereby accelerating the flow efficiency of condensed water on the middle partition 100 and further improving the circulation efficiency of condensed water.
[0090] In some specific examples, such as Figure 5As shown, the water outlet areas 111 may be two areas opposite to each other at both ends of the middle partition 100, and the water inlet 12 is located on the side wall between the water outlet areas 111 of the middle partition 100, and a group of guide rib groups 2 are provided between the water inlet 12 and each water outlet area 111, thereby, after the condensed water flows into the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, it can flow along the guide rib group 2 to the corresponding water outlet area 111, and a condenser 300 can be correspondingly arranged under each water outlet area 111, and the condensed water flowing out from the water outlet 1111 of the water outlet area 111 can directly flow to the corresponding condenser 300, thereby assisting in heat dissipation of the corresponding condenser 300.
[0091] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, a corresponding group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged corresponding to a portion of the water outlets 1111 in each water outlet area 111, and each group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged adjacent to the water inlet 12. Therefore, the guide rib groups 2 corresponding to a portion of the water outlets 1111 can guide the condensed water to the portion of the water outlets 1111, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow to a portion of the water outlets 1111 and accelerating the flow efficiency of the condensed water.
[0092] In addition, each group of guide rib groups 2 is arranged near the water inlet 12, which makes it convenient for the condensed water to be guided to the water outlet 1111 by the guide rib group 2 after entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, thereby further accelerating the circulation of the condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, extend the time that the chassis 500 contains water, thereby further extending the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000 and reducing the number of times users drain water.
[0093] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the middle partition 100 further includes a water dividing rib 3, which is disposed on the disc body 1 and adjacent to the water inlet 12. The water dividing rib 3 divides the condensed water flowing in from the water inlet 12 into multiple streams to flow to multiple water outlet areas 111. The water dividing rib 3 is disposed on the disc body 1 and adjacent to the water inlet 12 so that the condensed water can be divided into multiple streams by the water dividing rib 3 after entering the middle partition 100 from the water inlet 12, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow to multiple water outlet areas 111 respectively.
[0094] like Figure 3As shown, the water-dividing rib 3 includes two water-dividing surfaces 31 arranged opposite to each other, and the two water-dividing surfaces 31 extend obliquely in a direction away from the water inlet 12 and away from each other. As a feasible way, the water outlet area 111 can be two located on both sides of the water-dividing rib 3, one of the water-dividing areas 111 is located on one side of one of the water-dividing surfaces 31 of the water-dividing rib 3, and the other water-dividing area 111 is located on one side of the other water-dividing surface 31 of the water-dividing rib 3, and the water-dividing surface 31 on the side corresponding to the water-dividing area 111 can guide the condensed water to the water-dividing area 111. The two water-dividing surfaces 31 extend obliquely in a direction away from the water inlet 12 and away from each other, which can facilitate the guidance of the condensed water to the corresponding water outlet area 111.
[0095] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the middle partition 100 may further include a first rib 4, the first rib 4 defines a guide area 41, a plurality of water outlets 1111 are provided in the guide area 41, and the guide rib group 2 guides the condensed water toward the guide area 41. It can be understood that the first rib 4 can facilitate defining the guide area 41, and the guide area 41 can be used to accumulate condensed water. Specifically, after the condensed water flows into the guide area 41 through the guide rib group 2, the first rib 4 can confine the condensed water in the guide area 41, thereby facilitating the condensed water to flow out of the middle partition 100 from the plurality of water outlets 1111 in the guide area 41.
[0096] Furthermore, if Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the first rib 4 is a plurality of guide areas 41 defined by a plurality of intervals, and each guide area 41 is correspondingly provided with a guide channel 211 defined by at least one guide rib 21. Here, there can be one or more guide ribs 21, and one guide rib 21 can define a guide channel 211 with other components on the middle partition 100 on both sides of the guide rib 21. When there are multiple guide ribs 21, a guide channel 211 can be formed between two guide ribs 21, and at the same time, the guide rib 21 located on the outside of the multiple guide ribs 21 can define a guide channel 211 with other components on the middle partition 100. The guide channel 211 can guide the condensed water to the corresponding guide area 41.
[0097] By setting a plurality of spaced guide areas 41, it is convenient to set more water outlets 1111, thereby increasing the outflow amount and outflow efficiency of condensed water from the middle partition 100, thereby accelerating the circulation efficiency of condensed water, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving; it can also consume more condensed water from the evaporator 200, prolong the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water, thereby further prolonging the non-stop use time of the air conditioner 1000 and reducing the number of times the user drains water. The plurality of guide rib groups 2 can facilitate each water outlet area 111 to have a corresponding guide rib group 2 for drainage, thereby accelerating the flow efficiency of condensed water on the middle partition 100 and further improving the circulation efficiency of condensed water.
[0098] In addition, the multiple guide areas 41 are arranged at intervals to facilitate the condensed water to flow more evenly to the condenser 300. Specifically, the multiple guide areas 41 can be arranged at intervals along the length extension direction of the condenser 300. As a result, the heat dissipation of the condenser 300 can be made more uniform, thereby further improving the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300, further enhancing the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1000, improving the capacity and energy efficiency of the air conditioner 1000, and playing a role in energy saving.
[0099] like Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, the bottom wall of the tray body 1 is provided with a guide surface 13 extending obliquely downward toward the water outlet 1111. Thus, the condensed water can flow from the water inlet 12 to the water outlet 1111.
[0100] like Figure 3 As shown, the disc body 1 is provided with a blocking portion 5 arranged around the edge of each water outlet 1111 to prevent impurities in the condensed water from flowing toward the water outlet 1111. Since there are impurities in the condensed water, the blocking portion 5 can block the impurities in the condensed water so that the impurities cannot flow out of the water outlet 1111, thereby making the condensed water flowing onto the condenser 300 clean, thereby preventing impurities from flowing onto the condenser 300 to reduce the life of the condenser 300 or even damage the condenser 300.
[0101] like Figure 2-Figure 3As shown, the disk body 1 is provided with an overflow port 6, and the water inlet end face 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the water inlet end face of each water outlet 1111. It should be noted that when the water outlet 1111 of the middle partition 100 is blocked or the water outlet 1111 cannot meet the water discharge of condensed water, the condensed water can flow out from the overflow port 6, thereby accelerating the condensed water to flow out of the middle partition 100 and flow to the condenser 300, thereby preventing the condensed water from overflowing from the surroundings of the middle partition 100 and flowing to other components of the air conditioner 1000 to damage the air conditioner 1000. The water inlet end face 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the water inlet end face of each water outlet 1111, which can prevent the condensed water from flowing out of the overflow port 6 under normal circumstances (when the water outlet 1111 can meet the water discharge of condensed water).
[0102] Furthermore, the water inlet end surface 61 of the overflow port 6 is higher than the bottom wall where the overflow port 6 is located by no less than 5 mm.
[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, a portion of the edge of the water outlet 1111 is provided with a non-circular water-breaking portion 7 protruding upward, and the water-breaking portion 7 punctures the condensed water flowing toward the water outlet 1111. This can destroy the surface tension of the condensed water, thereby causing the condensed water to flow out of the water outlet 1111. Further, referring to Figure 3 Each water outlet 1111 is provided with a plurality of spaced water-breaking portions 7 . Thus, more condensed water can be punctured, and the surface tension of more condensed water can be destroyed, thereby causing more condensed water to flow out from the water outlet 1111 .
[0104] like Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an evaporator 200, a middle partition 100 and a condenser 300. The middle partition 100 is the middle partition 100 of the air conditioner 1000 as described above. The middle partition 100 is located below the evaporator 200 to receive condensed water; the condenser 300 is arranged below the middle partition 100, and the condensed water flows to the condenser 300 through the water outlet 1111.
[0105] According to the air conditioner 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, by setting the guide rib group 2 on the disk body 1, the guide rib group 2 is configured to guide the condensed water in the disk body 1 to at least a part of the water outlet 1111. Therefore, the guide rib group 2 can realize efficient and rapid drainage of the condensed water to at least a part of the water outlet 1111, which can accelerate the circulation of the condensed water. On the one hand, it can improve the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300 and save energy; on the other hand, it can accelerate the evaporation of the condensed water, and then more condensed water can be consumed, and the time for the bottom plate 500 to hold water can be extended; moreover, the guide rib group 2 can facilitate the condensed water to be divided into multiple streams flowing to the water outlet 111, thereby, the guide rib group 2 can facilitate the uniform distribution of the condensed water, and then the condensed water can flow to the water outlets 111 at different positions, so that the water outlet 111 is uniform, and the heat dissipation effect of the condenser 300 is further improved. At the same time, the middle partition 100 of the present invention is drained by the guide ribs 21. Compared with the sealed water box in the prior art for water distribution, the middle partition 100 of the present invention does not require ultrasonic welding and other processes, so the manufacturing process is relatively simple, and the hidden danger of water leakage caused by poor sealing of the sealed water box can be avoided.
[0106] According to some embodiments of the present invention, at least one of the evaporator 200 and the condenser 300 is connected to the middle partition 100 through a connector. It is understandable that the evaporator 200 and the middle partition 100 can be connected through a connector, and the condenser 300 and the middle partition 100 can also be connected through a connector, and the evaporator 200 and the condenser 300 can also be connected to the middle partition 100 through a connector. Among them, the evaporator 200 and / or the condenser 300 can be reliably fixed on the middle partition 100 through the connector. In addition, the connection through the connector makes it easy for the evaporator 200 and / or the condenser 300 to be installed on the middle partition 100 and also easy to remove from the middle partition 100.
