[0048] Next, refer to Figures 1 - 14 Describe the air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The air conditioner indoor unit 100 is a structure of an air conditioner. When the air conditioner cools, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 blows cold air towards the room. When the air conditioner heats, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 blows hot air towards the room.
[0049] As Figures 1 - 14 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a housing 10, a filter screen 20, and a processing module 40. An air inlet 11 is provided on the housing 10, and a processing chamber 12 is provided inside the housing 10. Further, the housing 10 may include a first housing 15 and a second housing 16. An air conditioner core 80 is provided inside the air conditioner indoor unit 100. The air conditioner core 80 includes a fan and a cross-flow impeller. Both the first housing 15 and the air conditioner core 80 are provided inside the second housing 16. The second housing 16 is configured as the front frame of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. The first housing 15 can define the processing chamber 12. The first housing 15 may be provided with a first air inlet 17. In the length direction of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, that is Figure 2In the left - right direction, the processing chamber 12 can be arranged on one side of the air - conditioner core 80. A part of the structure of the first housing 15 is arranged on the upper side of the air - conditioner core 80. The second housing 16 is provided with a second air inlet 18 and an air outlet 19. The second air inlet 18 is correspondingly arranged and communicated with the first air inlet 17, and the first air inlet 17 constitutes the air inlet 11 on the housing 10. When the air - conditioner core 80 of the air - conditioner indoor unit 100 works, indoor air flows through the second air inlet 18 and the first air inlet 17 in sequence and enters the air - conditioner indoor unit 100. Under the action of the air - conditioner core 80, the air in the air - conditioner indoor unit 100 is blown into the room from the air outlet 19, and the air outlet 19 can be arranged at the lower end of the second housing 16. The first housing 15 can be fixedly installed on the air - conditioner core 80 by screws or buckles.
[0050] The filter screen support is arranged in the housing 10 and is arranged opposite to the air inlet 11. A sliding space 31 is defined between the housing 10 and the filter screen support. Further, the filter screen support is arranged in the first housing 15, and the sliding space 31 is defined between the first housing 10 and the filter screen support and is communicated with the processing chamber 12. And, the processing module 40 is arranged in the processing chamber 12, that is, the processing module 40 is provided in the processing chamber 12. The processing module 40 includes a processing member 43, a rotating wheel 42 and a driving member 41. The rotating wheel 42 is connected to the driving member 41, and the driving member 41 can drive the rotating wheel 42 to rotate. One end of the filter screen 20 is connected to the rotating wheel 42. When the driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate, at least a part of the filter screen 20 in the sliding space 31 can be recovered into the processing chamber 12 under the drive of the rotating wheel 42, or when the rotating wheel 42 rotates, the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12 is conveyed into the sliding space 31 under the drive of the rotating wheel 42. The processing member 43 is configured to process the adsorbents on the filter screen 20. After the processing member 43 processes the adsorbents on the filter screen 20, the filter screen 20 can be purified to make the filter screen 20 clean.
[0051] When the filter screen 20 is located in the sliding space 31, indoor air flows through the filter screen 20 from the air inlet 11 and then enters the air conditioner indoor unit 100. The filter screen 20 has a filtering effect on the air. By filtering the air through the filter screen 20, it is possible to prevent objects such as particulate matter from flowing into the air conditioner indoor unit 100. When there are adsorbents attached to the filter screen 20, the adsorbents can be objects such as particulate matter, benzene, aldehyde, cotton, etc. The driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate, and the rotating wheel 42 drives the filter screen 20 to move so that the filter screen 20 is recycled into the treatment chamber 12. The treatment member 43 treats the adsorbents on the filter screen 20. Under the action of the treatment member 43, the adsorbents and the filter screen 20 can be separated, which can make the filter screen 20 clean and achieve the effect of purifying the filter screen 20. Further, after the filter screen 20 is purified, the driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate, and the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12 is transported into the sliding space 31. At this time, there are no adsorbents or very few adsorbents on the filter screen 20, and the air resistance of the filter screen 20 is small, which can ensure the air intake volume of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, thereby ensuring the air output volume of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, and further ensuring the performance of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. In addition, when the air conditioner needs to blow strongly into the room, for example, when the air conditioner needs to cool strongly, at this time the air conditioner indoor unit 100 needs a higher air intake volume. The driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate to collect the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12. There is no air resistance at the air inlet 11. In unit time, the air volume flowing into the air conditioner indoor unit 100 increases, which can ensure the air output volume of the air conditioner, thereby ensuring the use performance of the air conditioner.
[0052] It should be noted that when the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12 is transported into the sliding space 31, the rotation direction of the rotating wheel 42 is opposite to the rotation direction of the rotating wheel 42 when the filter screen 20 is recycled into the treatment chamber 12. For example, when the filter screen 20 is recycled into the treatment chamber 12, the rotating wheel 42 rotates counterclockwise, and when the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12 is transported into the sliding space 31, the rotating wheel 42 rotates clockwise.
[0053] Specifically, when the air conditioner needs to turn on the purification function, the driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate, so that the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12 is transported into the sliding space 31, so that the filter screen 20 corresponds to the position of the air inlet 11. Preferably, the filter screen 20 covers the entire air inlet 11. Under the action of the cross-flow fan, a negative pressure is formed in the air conditioner indoor unit 100, and the indoor air is circulated. The air is purified through the filter screen 20. At this time, particulate matter, benzene, aldehyde, etc. in the indoor air are adsorbed on the filter screen 20. When the air conditioner needs to turn on the strong cooling mode or heating mode, that is, when the air conditioner needs a greater circulating air volume demand, the filter screen 20 in the treatment chamber 12 is transported into the sliding space 31 driven by the rotating wheel 42. At this time, there is no filter screen 20 blocking the air inlet 11 of the air conditioner, and it can operate without air resistance.
[0054] Thus, through the cooperation of the filter screen support, the filter screen 20, and the processing module 40, the air output of the air conditioner can be ensured, the performance of the air conditioner can be guaranteed, and the adsorbents on the filter screen 20 can also be automatically cleaned, enabling the filter screen 20 to be reused.
[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figures 2 - 8 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 may further include: an auxiliary wheel 50. The auxiliary wheel 50 is disposed in the processing chamber 12 and is rotatable in the processing chamber 12. The filter screen 20 cooperates with the auxiliary wheel 50, and the rotating wheel 42 rotates in the same direction as the auxiliary wheel 50. Among them, the auxiliary wheel 50 can support the filter screen 20. During the movement of the filter screen 20, by supporting the filter screen 20 through the auxiliary wheel 50, it is possible to prevent the structure of the filter screen 20 from being stacked together, enabling the filter screen 20 to smoothly move from the sliding space 31 into the processing chamber 12 and also enabling the filter screen 20 to smoothly move from the processing chamber 12 into the sliding space 31.
[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 7 shown, the driving member 41 may be disposed between the rotating wheel 42 and the auxiliary wheel 50. The driving member 41 and the rotating wheel 42 may be drivingly connected through a belt 90. The driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise through the belt 90.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 8 shown, the driving member 41 may be provided in multiple numbers. For example, the driving member 41 is provided in two. One of the two driving members 41 is connected to the auxiliary wheel 50, and the driving member 41 can drive the auxiliary wheel 50 to rotate. One of the two driving members 41 is connected to the rotating wheel 42. By simultaneously driving the auxiliary wheel 50 and the rotating wheel 42 to rotate through the two driving members 41, it can be ensured that the filter screen 20 can move from the sliding space 31 into the processing chamber 12 and can also ensure that the filter screen 20 moves from the processing chamber 12 into the sliding space 31, thereby ensuring the working reliability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figures 3 - 8As shown in the figure, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 may further include: a reset rotating shaft 60, a pulling rope, and a reset driving member. The reset rotating shaft 60 may be disposed within the housing 10 and is rotatable within the housing 10. Further, the reset rotating shaft 60 is disposed within a sliding space 31 within the first housing 15. One end of the pulling rope is connected to the reset rotating shaft 60, and the other end of the pulling rope is connected to the other end of the filter screen 20. The reset rotating shaft 60 is connected to the reset driving member, and the reset driving member can drive the reset rotating shaft 60 to rotate. When the reset rotating shaft 60 rotates, the pulling rope can be wound around the reset rotating shaft 60, and the pulling rope pulls the filter screen 20 to slide to a position directly opposite to the air inlet 11. Among them, the reset driving member can be set as a motor, and the pulling rope can be made of a wound material. For example, the pulling rope is set as a steel wire. The reset rotating shaft 60 can be disposed at one end of the sliding space 31 away from the processing chamber 12. When it is necessary to transport the filter screen 20 to a position corresponding to the air inlet 11, the reset driving member drives the reset rotating shaft 60 to rotate. For example, it drives the reset rotating shaft 60 to rotate clockwise. During the rotation of the reset rotating shaft 60, the filter screen 20 is driven by the pulling rope to move into the sliding space 31, so that the filter screen 20 moves to a position corresponding to the air inlet 11, thereby enabling the filter screen 20 to be more smoothly returned to a position corresponding to the air inlet 11.
[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 2 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 shown, the housing 10 may include: a main bracket 13 (i.e., the above-mentioned first housing 15). A motor fixing structure may be provided on the main bracket 13, the reset driving member may be disposed on the motor fixing structure, the air inlet 11 may be provided on the main bracket 13, a filter screen bracket may be disposed within the main bracket 13, and the filter screen bracket and the main bracket 13 cooperate to define sliding spaces 31 on both sides of the filter screen bracket. The filter screen 20 is configured such that a part of its structure is located within one of the sliding spaces 31, and another part of the structure of the filter screen 20 is located within the processing chamber 12. Among them, a first sliding space 32 may be defined between the upper surface of the filter screen bracket and the main bracket 13, a second sliding space 33 may be defined between the lower surface of the filter screen bracket and the main bracket 13, a part of the structure of the filter screen 20 may be disposed within the first sliding space 32 and / or the second sliding space 33, and another part of the structure of the filter screen 20 may be disposed within the processing chamber 12. The filter screen bracket can support the filter screen 20, preventing the filter screen 20 from bending and deforming due to its own gravity within the sliding space 31, thereby preventing the filter screen 20 from getting stuck within the sliding space 31, and further ensuring that the filter screen 20 can move within the sliding space 31 and the processing chamber 12.
[0060] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figures 9 - 12As shown, the driving member 41 can be set as a stepping motor, and the rotating wheel 42 can be set as a gear. The rotating wheel 42 is in meshing transmission with the side edge of the filter screen 20. Among them, the stepping motor controls the rotation of the rotating wheel 42 through the gear set 191. According to Figure 12 From the meshing situation between the rotating wheel 42 and the filter screen 20, it can be known that when the rotating wheel 42 rotates clockwise, one end of the filter screen 20 enters the first sliding space 32. The filter screen 20 that enters the first sliding space 32 starts to perform filtration and adsorption. At the same time, during the movement of the filter screen 20, the filter screen 20 in the second sliding space 33 moves from the second sliding space 33 to the processing chamber 12. The processing member 43 in the processing chamber 12 performs desorption treatment on the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12. When the filter screen 20 completely covers the first sliding space 32, the filter screen 20 in the first sliding space 32 adsorbs and filters the gas flowing into the air conditioner indoor unit 100. As Figure 13 shown, when the rotating wheel 42 rotates counterclockwise, the filter screen 20 in the first sliding space 32 enters the processing chamber 12. The processing member 43 in the processing chamber 12 performs desorption treatment on the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12, and the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12 moves to the second sliding space 33. As Figure 9 shown, the filter screen 20 in the second sliding space 33 starts to perform filtration and adsorption.
[0061] As another specific embodiment of the present invention, the filter screen 20 can be set as an annular structure. At this time, the filter screen 20 is simultaneously arranged in the first sliding space 32, the second sliding space 33, and the processing chamber 12. The filter screen 20 can move cyclically in the air conditioner indoor unit 100. During the operation of the air conditioner, by turning on the desorption function, the driving member 41 drives the rotating wheel 42 to rotate, and the filter screen 20 can reciprocate between the first sliding space 32, the second sliding space 33, and the processing chamber 12. When the processing member 43 in the processing chamber 12 performs desorption treatment on the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12, the filter screens 20 in the first sliding space 32 and the second sliding space 33 can perform filtration and adsorption.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figures 2 - 5 shown, the processing member 43 can be set as a heating member 44. The heating member 44 is used to heat the filter screen 20. The filter screen 20 is configured such that when it is heated, the mesh holes of the filter screen 20 increase so that the adsorbed substances on the filter screen 20 fall off from the filter screen 20. Among them, the heating member 44 can be set as a PTC heater. When the filter screen 20 moves into the processing chamber 12 and the heating member 44 starts to work, the heating member 44 can heat the filter screen 20 to raise the temperature of the filter screen 20 to 80 °C - 100 °C, so that the mesh hole size on the filter screen 20 becomes larger, thereby causing the adsorbed substances on the filter screen 20 to fall into the processing chamber 12, achieving the effect of purifying the filter screen 20.
[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, asFigure 6 As shown, the processing member 43 can also be set as a carbon radiation heating tube 45, and the carbon radiation heating tube 45 can be arranged on one side of the rotating wheel 42. For example, the carbon radiation heating tube 45 is arranged Figure 6 on the left side of the rotating wheel 42 in []. Moreover, the carbon radiation heating tube 45 has rapid temperature rise, small thermal lag, uniform heat generation, and a long heat radiation transfer distance. When the carbon radiation heating tube 45 is working, it can quickly heat the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12, and can also heat the filter screen 20 evenly, ensuring that the adsorbents on the filter screen 20 fall into the processing chamber 12, thereby improving the working reliability of the processing member 43.
[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 5 shown, the processing member 43 can be arranged inside the rotating wheel 42. Further, the processing member 43 can also be arranged inside the auxiliary wheel 50. It should be noted that the rotating wheel 42 and the auxiliary wheel 50 are close to the filter screen 20. When the processing member 43 is arranged inside both the rotating wheel 42 and the auxiliary wheel 50, for example, when heating members 44 are arranged inside both the rotating wheel 42 and the auxiliary wheel 50, the heating members 44 can heat the filter screen 20 more quickly, improving the heating efficiency of the heating members 44, enabling the filter screen 20 to quickly increase in temperature, so that the adsorbents can quickly fall off, thereby saving the processing and purification time of the processing member 43 for the filter screen 20, reducing the working time of the processing member 43, and saving electric energy.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a discharge pipe 70 can be arranged on the housing 10, and the discharge pipe 70 is communicated with the processing chamber 12. Further, the first housing 15 is provided with the discharge pipe 70. One end of the discharge pipe 70 is communicated with the processing chamber 12, and the other end of the discharge pipe 70 can be communicated with the outdoor environment after passing through the second housing 16. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the other end of the discharge pipe 70 can also be communicated with a storage box. This application will be described with the other end of the discharge pipe 70 being communicated with the outdoor environment. The air conditioner indoor unit 100 can further include: a processing fan 71. When the processing fan 71 operates, it can discharge the adsorbents in the processing chamber 12 through the discharge pipe 70. Among them, the processing fan 71 can be set as a centrifugal fan. In the length direction of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, that is, Figure 2 the left-right direction in [], the processing fan 71 can be arranged outside the processing chamber 12. The processing fan 71 communicates the discharge pipe 70 and the processing chamber 12. When the processing fan 71 is working, due to the action of negative pressure, the adsorbents in the processing chamber 12 can be discharged to the outdoor environment through the discharge pipe 70, avoiding secondary pollution caused by pollutants (i.e., adsorbents) remaining inside the air conditioner indoor unit 100. Moreover, when the processing fan 71 is working, it can also discharge the carbon dioxide in the indoor environment to the outdoor, reducing the carbon dioxide concentration in the indoor environment, thereby improving user comfort.
[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 10 shown, the processing member 43 may include: a light source 46 and a catalytic module 47. Both the light source 46 and the catalytic module 47 may be provided in multiple numbers. The catalytic module 47 is disposed in the processing chamber 12. When the light source 46 is turned on, the photocatalytic catalytic module 47 decomposes the adsorbate in the processing chamber 12. Among them, when the filter screen 20 is recycled into the processing chamber 12, the catalytic light source 46 is turned on, and the photocatalytic catalytic module 47 decomposes the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds - volatile organic substances) adsorbed on the filter screen 20, so that the adsorbate is desorbed from the filter screen 20, achieving the effect of purifying the filter screen 20.
[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 10 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 may further include: a disturbing member 48. The disturbing member 48 may be provided as a fan, and the disturbing member 48 is configured to disturb the air flow in the processing chamber 12. Among them, during the process of the photocatalytic catalytic module 47 decomposing the adsorbate on the filter screen 20, the disturbing member 48 is started to work, and the fan generates a weak air flow flowing in the processing chamber 12, making the gas more uniform in the processing chamber 12.
[0068] Further, as Figure 10 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 may further include: a detection device 49. The detection device 49 may be a detection sensor. The detection device 49 is used to detect the gas concentration in the processing chamber 12. When the detection result of the detection device 49 is lower than the set concentration, the rotating wheel 42 is controlled to rotate, so that the filter screen 20 in the processing chamber 12 can be conveyed into the sliding space 31. Further, during the process of the photocatalytic catalytic module 47 decomposing the adsorbate on the filter screen 20, the disturbing member 48 is started to work, and the fan generates a weak air flow flowing in the processing chamber 12, making the gas in the processing chamber 12 more uniform. At this time, the detection device 49 real-time detects the VOC concentration in the processing chamber 12 until the VOC concentration in the processing chamber 12 is lower than 0.6 mg / m3, which means that the adsorbate on the filter screen 20 has been processed cleanly, and the filter screen 20 can move to the air inlet 11 for filtering.
[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 14 shown, a slideway 14 may be provided in the processing chamber 12. Multiple slideways 14 may be provided. The multiple slideways 14 are spaced apart. The multiple slideways 14 are spaced in the sliding direction parallel to the sliding space 31. The filter screen 20 is slidably engaged with the multiple slideways 14. Among them, during the movement of the filter screen 20, the slideway 14 can play a guiding role for the filter screen 20, enabling the filter screen 20 to move smoothly between the processing chamber 12 and the sliding space 31.
[0070] Further, as Figures 3 - 8As shown, a plurality of slideways 14 are connected in sequence to form a slideway 14. Such a setting can simplify the setting process of the slideway 14 and improve the production efficiency of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.
[0071] Furthermore, the filter screen 20 is arranged in the slideway 14. Guide wheels can be arranged on the side surface of the slideway 14 opposite to the filter screen 20. The guide wheels can rotate and can play a role in supporting and guiding the filter screen 20. When the filter screen 20 moves between the processing chamber 12 and the sliding space 31, under the action of the guide wheels, the friction between the slideway 14 and the filter screen 20 can be reduced, so that the filter screen 20 can move more smoothly between the processing chamber 12 and the sliding space 31.
[0072] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 10 、 Figure 12 、 Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, a processing member 43 can be arranged in the interval space between adjacent slideways 14. Such a setting can make the arrangement position of the processing member 43 reasonable, improve the purification effect on the filter screen 20, and thus quickly separate the adsorbents on the filter screen 20 from the filter screen 20.
[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, a wind deflector can be arranged at the air outlet 19. The wind deflector is rotatably arranged at the air outlet 19.
