[0044] The following refers to Figures 1-5 An air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present application is described.

[0045] As Figures 1-5As shown, the air conditioner 1 comprises an air conditioner body 10, a movable panel 20, a display assembly 30, a driving component 40 and a connecting wire 50. The air conditioner body 10 is provided with an air outlet 112a, and the airflow after heat exchange in the air conditioner 1 can be blown to the user through the air outlet 112a to complete the air supply operation. The movable panel 20 is arranged at the air outlet 112a, and when the air conditioner 1 is in the shutdown state, the movable panel 20 is the appearance panel of the air conditioner 1 and shields at least part of the air outlet 112a (the movable panel 20 can completely shield the air outlet 112a, or shield part of the air outlet 112a), and it can be understood that the movable panel 20 is movably arranged on the air conditioner body 10 to selectively shield or open the air outlet 112a.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, the number of movable panels 20 can be one or more, and when the movable panels 20 are multiple, the multiple panels can be arranged in sequence in the transverse direction or the vertical direction at the air outlet 112a; when the movable panel 20 is one, the movable panel 20 is matched in size with the air outlet 112a and can be used to shield the air outlet 112a.

[0047] The display assembly 30 is arranged on the movable panel 20, and the display assembly 30 moves together with the movable panel 20, which can avoid the problem that the display assembly 30 is too high to be controlled and the movable panel 20 may shield the display assembly 30. If the display assembly 30 is arranged on the air conditioner body 10, there is a problem that the display assembly 30 is shielded after the movable panel 20 moves, and arranging the display assembly 30 on the movable panel 20 controls the display assembly 30 to move together with the movable panel 20 to ensure that the display assembly 30 will not be shielded by the movable panel 20, and the user can more easily find the display assembly 30.

[0048] The driving component 40 is arranged on the air conditioner body 10, the driving component 40 is connected with the movable panel 20, the driving component 40 can drive the movable panel 20 to move to adjust the position of the movable panel 20 in the air conditioner 1, the driving component 40 drives the movable panel 20 to move relative to the air outlet 112a to meet the needs of different operations of the air conditioner 1; the driving component 40 has a wiring structure for accommodating the connecting wire 50. The inner end of the connecting wire 50 of the air conditioner is in the air conditioner body 10, the connecting wire 50 is wired through the wiring structure to connect the outer end of the connecting wire 50 with the display assembly 30 on the movable panel 20, realize the electrical connection between the display assembly 30 and the control unit inside the air conditioner body 10, to ensure that the display assembly 30 can reliably display corresponding images or characters, and simplify the wiring arrangement of the air conditioner 1.

[0049] When air in the air conditioner is discharged through the air outlet 112a of the air conditioner body 10, the driving assembly 41 drives the movable panel 20 to move, the display assembly 30 on the movable panel 20 moves together with the movable panel 20, the connecting wire 50 supplies power for the display assembly 30, and can also be used to control the content to be displayed by the display assembly 30. By arranging the wire structure on the driving assembly 41, the wire can move with the movement of the movable panel 20, and the electrical connection problem of the display assembly 30 is solved.

[0050] Some air conditioner cabinet machines in the related art are provided with left and right opening and closing doors. In this design, the display module needs to be designed on the fixed panel above the air outlet, and the display module cannot be set too high due to the observation requirement of the display module, so that the height of the air outlet needs to be correspondingly reduced, and the air outlet area is limited.

[0051] In the air conditioner 1 of the present application, the display assembly 30 of the air conditioner 1 is arranged on the movable panel 20 which can swing at the air outlet 112a of the air conditioner 1, effectively solving the problem of the opening and closing door blocking the display assembly 30 and the problem of user inconvenience in operating the air conditioner. The air conditioner 1 according to the present application has a simple structure, the display assembly 30 is located on the movable panel 20, the operation is convenient, the display assembly 30 is not easily blocked, and the setting position of the display assembly 30 does not affect the size of the air outlet 112a, so that the air outlet area of the air outlet 112a can be increased as needed, and the wire structure arranged on the driving part 40 is also used to arrange the connecting wire 50, reduce the movement allowance of the connecting wire 50, and improve the reliability problem caused by the free overhanging of the connecting wire 50.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving part 40 includes a driving assembly 41 and a connecting arm 44, the driving assembly 41 is a power source of the driving part 40, the connecting arm 44 is connected with the driving assembly 41 to move under the driving of the driving assembly 41, and the connecting arm 44 is a connecting structure 21b in the driving part 40 which can connect the driving part 40 with other structures; the connecting arm 44 is connected with the movable panel 20, so that the connecting arm 44 and the movable panel 20 move together under the driving of the driving assembly 41.

[0053] The wire structure includes a first wire passing groove 441, and the first wire passing groove 441 can accommodate the connecting wire 50. The first wire passing groove 441 is formed on the connecting arm 44, and is used to accommodate the connecting wire 50, and at the same time, the driving assembly 41 moves the connecting wire 50 synchronously when driving the connecting arm 44 to move, so as to ensure the stability of the electrical connection of the display assembly 30.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present application, the first wire passing groove 441 on the connecting arm 44 can be an arc-shaped groove or a rectangular groove; the first wire passing groove 441 can be arranged on the upper surface of the connecting arm 44 or on the lower surface of the connecting arm 44 or on the side surface of the connecting arm 44.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, the wire arrangement further comprises a first wire retaining buckle 441a, which is arranged in the first wire passing groove 441, the first wire retaining buckle 441a is arranged on the inner side wall of the first wire passing groove 441 and protrudes towards the inside of the first wire passing groove 441, the first wire retaining buckle 441a can press against the connecting wire 50, thereby pressing the wire harness in the first wire passing groove 441 and keeping the connecting wire 50 stable during the movement of the connecting arm 44. After the first wire retaining buckle 441a defines the position of the connecting wire 50, it can prevent the excess connecting wire 50 from interfering with the operation of the movable panel 20.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving assembly 41 comprises a first driving mechanism 411 and a second driving mechanism 412. The driving component 40 further comprises a first carrier 42 and a second carrier 43, the second carrier 43 is arranged on the first carrier 42, the connecting arm 44 is arranged on the second carrier 43, the first driving mechanism 411 can drive the second carrier 43 to move, when the second carrier 43 moves, the second carrier 43 can drive the connecting arm 44 to move together, so that the first carrier 42 moves in the direction of the inner and outer of the air outlet 112a, the second driving mechanism 412 can also drive the connecting arm 44 to move, so that the connecting arm 44 moves in the transverse direction of the air outlet 112a relative to the second carrier 43.

[0057] Under the action of the first driving component, the first carrier 42 moves in the direction of the inner and outer of the air outlet 112a, so that the second carrier 43 drives the connecting arm 44, and the connecting arm 44 drives the movable panel 20 to move towards the direction of opening or closing the air outlet 112a.

[0058] Under the action of the second driving component, the connecting arm 44 moves on the second carrier 43, so that the connecting arm 44 drives the movable panel 20 to move in the width direction of the air outlet 112a, thereby adjusting the direction of the air outlet 112a.

[0059] For example, after the first driving member drives the first bearing member 42 to move to a position away from and open the air outlet 112a, the second driving member further drives the connecting arm 44 to move in the width direction of the air outlet 112a to adjust the air outlet direction. When the connecting arm 44 and the movable panel 20 are configured in one-to-one correspondence, the second driving member can drive two adjacent movable panels 20 to move away from each other to further open the air outlet 112a, reduce the area of the movable panel 20 facing the air outlet 112a, and increase the air volume.

[0060] The movable panel 20 is movably arranged at the air outlet 112a of the air conditioner 1 under the driving of the connecting arm 44, and the movable panel 20 moves under the action of the first driving member and the second driving member, thereby guiding the air blown out of the air conditioner 1. The first driving member is used to control the opening or closing of the movable panel 20 to the air outlet 112a, and the second driving member is used to control the position of the movable panel 20 relative to the air outlet 112a to change the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112a. When the movable panel 20 does not block the air outlet 112a, i.e., the movable panel 20 is opened, air can be blown out from the gap of the movable panel 20. By adjusting the operation mode or opening position of the movable panel 20, various air supply modes can be realized to meet the various use requirements of users.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, the second bearing member 43 is formed with a second wire passing groove 431 in the wire arrangement structure, which can be used to accommodate the connecting wire 50. Since the second bearing member 43 can move relative to the first bearing member 42 under the driving of the first driving member, the connecting wire 50 will also move relatively. To ensure that the connecting wire 50 remains stable during movement, the second wire passing groove 431 is arranged on the second bearing member 43 to further limit the connecting wire 50, so as to ensure that the connecting wire 50 will not move with the second bearing member 43 and interfere with other components.

[0062] The connecting arm 44 is formed with a first wire passing groove 441 in the wire arrangement structure, and the connecting arm 44 is arranged on the second bearing member 43 and adjacent to the second bearing member 43. The position of the second wire passing groove 431 can be adjacent to the first wire passing groove 441, so that the connecting wire 50 can be completely embedded in the first wire passing groove 441 and the second wire passing groove 431. This arrangement can ensure that the connecting wire 50 does not interfere with the operation of the movable panel 20 when the movable panel 20 is working.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, the connecting wire 50 has a spiral telescopic part 51, which is arranged at the second wire slot 431. The spiral telescopic part 51 is in a spiral telescopic structure, which is arranged to facilitate the free length change of the connecting wire 50 when the movable panel 20 swings. The spiral telescopic part 51 can be understood as at least part of the connecting wire 50 being arranged in a spiral shape. The spiral telescopic part 51 is arranged in the second wire slot 431, and can be used to adjust the length of the connecting wire 50 when the second carrier 43 moves relative to the first carrier 42. Since the second carrier 43 moves relative to the first carrier 42, and the connecting wire 50 moves with the second carrier 43, the spiral telescopic part 51 is arranged to adjust the length of the connecting wire 50 to adapt to the movement of the second carrier 43.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, the movable panel 20 includes an outer panel 21 and an inner panel 22.

The wiring part 31 can be configured as a wiring terminal, which is matched with one end of the connecting wire 50. The wiring part 31 and the display assembly 30 are further electrically connected through a wire harness.

[0065] The movable panel 20 includes the outer panel 21 and the inner panel 22. The outer panel 21 and the inner panel 22 are arranged to reasonably arrange the movable panel 20, so as to facilitate the arrangement of the display assembly 30 in the movable panel 20. The inner panel 22 is provided with a clearance 22a. At least part of the clearance 22a is opposite to the wiring part 31. The clearance 22a can be used to avoid the wiring part 31, and at the same time, the wiring part 31 is exposed, so as to avoid the extrusion of the connecting wire 50 when the inner panel 22 and the outer panel 21 are closed.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, the inner surface of the outer panel 21 is provided with a mounting structure 21a, which can fix the display assembly 30 on the inner surface of the outer panel 21. In this way, when the movable panel 20 moves, the display assembly 30 can stably move with the movable panel 20.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present application, the mounting structure 21a can be configured as a rib formed on the inner surface of the outer panel 21. The rib is arranged around the outer periphery of the display part 32. The outer periphery of the display part 32 is provided with a clamping protrusion. The rib is provided with a clamping groove suitable for the clamping protrusion to pass through. The clamping protrusion and the clamping groove are matched to fix the display assembly 30 and the outer panel 21.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, the inner surface of the inner layer plate 22 is provided with a connecting structure 21b, which is connected with the driving component 40, or the inner surface of the outer layer plate 21 is provided with a connecting structure 21b opposite to the avoiding opening 22a, which is connected with the driving component 40. In order to connect the movable panel 20 with the driving component 40, the connecting structure 21b can be provided on the inner surface of the inner layer plate 22, and the connecting arm 44 of the driving component 40 is connected through the connecting structure 21b; or the connecting structure 21b opposite to the avoiding opening 22a is provided on the inner surface of the outer layer plate 21, so that the connecting structure 21b is connected with the connecting arm 44 of the driving component 40. In this way, the connecting arm 44 can drive the movable panel 20 to move together.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present application, the air conditioner body 10 comprises an electric control component 14. The driving component 40 and the inner end of the connecting wire 50 are both connected with the electric control component 14, and the electric control component 14 can supply power to the driving component 40 and the display assembly 30 in the air conditioner 1. In some embodiments of the present application, the electric control component 14 can be configured as an electric control box, which is arranged on the lower side of the air conditioner body 10 and is connected with the driving component and the inner end of the connecting wire 50 respectively. The electric control box can be used to control the movement of the driving component to control the opening and closing of the movable panel 20, and the electric control box is connected with the display assembly 30 through the connecting wire 50 to control the display assembly 30 to display the corresponding picture.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, the air outlet 112a of the air conditioner 1 extends vertically, and the movable panel 20 covering the air outlet 112a also extends vertically; the air conditioner 1 has a plurality of driving components 40, and the plurality of driving components 40 are arranged vertically and spaced apart, and at least one driving component 40 is provided with a wiring structure to drive the movable panel 20 to move.

[0071] By arranging a plurality of driving components 40, the movement of the movable panel 20 can be driven more stably and reliably, and the stability of the movement of the movable panel 20 is improved. The plurality of driving components 40 are arranged vertically and spaced apart, so that the plurality of driving components 40 can support the movable panel 20 in the vertical direction, ensuring the reliable movement of the movable panel 20. The wiring structure is arranged on at least one driving component 40 to realize stable electrical connection between the display assembly 30 and the electric control component 14. The wiring structure can be arranged on each driving component 40, which on the one hand reduces the number of required mold parts, and on the other hand can disperse the wire harness, and the corresponding wire terminals on the display assembly 30 are connected through the wiring structure on the corresponding driving component 40.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present application, the transverse direction of the air outlet 112a is the left-right direction, and the air outlet 112a has two movable panels 20 arranged along the left-right direction of the air outlet 112a. When the two movable panels 20 are closed, they can block the air outlet 112a. When the first driving mechanism 411 drives the second carrier 43 to move, the second carrier 43 drives the connecting arms 44 to move together, and the connecting arms 44 are configured to correspond to the two movable panels 20. When the first driving mechanism 411 drives the first carrier 42 to move, the two movable panels 20 move away from the air outlet 112a at the same time to open the air outlet 112a. When the second driving mechanism 412 drives the corresponding connecting arms 44, the two movable panels 20 can move away from or close to each other to further open the air outlet 112a and adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112a. When the second driving mechanism 412 drives the connecting arms 44 to move, the connecting arms 44 move transversely relative to the second carrier 43 along the air outlet 112a. In this way, the position of the movable panels 20 in the transverse direction of the air outlet 112a can be adjusted to meet the movement of the movable panels 20 in different directions.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, the air conditioner body 10 includes a shell 11, a heat exchanger 12, a water pan 13, and an electronic control component 14. The shell 11 is used to accommodate the heat exchanger 12, the water pan 13, and the electronic control component 14; the shell 11 includes a rear box body 111 and a front panel 112, the front panel 112 is arranged on the front side of the rear box body 111, and the air outlet 112a of the air conditioner body 10 is arranged on the front panel 112. The heat exchanger 12 is used to heat or cool the air entering the air conditioner 1, and the heat exchanger 12 is arranged in the shell 11. The water pan 13 is used to collect the condensed water generated during the operation of the air conditioner 1, and the water pan 13 is arranged below the heat exchanger 12. The electronic control component 14 is used to power the driving components 40 and the display assemblies 30 in the air conditioner 1, and the electronic control component 14 is arranged below the water pan 13.

The outer end of the connecting wire 50 is connected to each display assembly 30, and the inner end of the connecting wire 50 is connected to the electronic control component 14.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, the active panels 20 are adapted to the size of the air outlets 112a when the active panels 20 are closed, and can shield the air outlets 112a. When the first driving mechanism 411 drives the second carrier 43 to move, the second carrier 43 drives the connecting arms 44 to move together, and the connecting arms 44 are configured in a corresponding number to the active panels 20. When the first driving mechanism 411 drives the first carrier 42 to move, the active panels 20 move away from the air outlets 112a to open the air outlets 112a. When the second driving mechanism 412 drives the corresponding connecting arms 44 to move, the active panels 20 can move away from or close to each other to further open the air outlets 112a and adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlets 112a. When the second driving mechanism 412 drives the connecting arms 44 to move, the connecting arms 44 move transversely to the air outlets 112a relative to the second carrier 43. In this way, the position of the active panels 20 in the transverse direction of the air outlets 112a can be adjusted to meet the movement of the active panels 20 in different directions.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, the surface of the side of the active panels 20 facing the air outlets 112a includes a wind guide surface 22b, for example, the wind guide surface 22b can be provided on the inner layer panel 22. The wind guide surface 22b can guide the wind at the air outlets 112a, so that the active panels 20 have the function of a wind guide panel, and the wind guide panel and the like can be omitted as needed, thereby simplifying the structure of the whole machine and reducing the cost.

[0076] When the surface of the side of the active panels 20 facing the air outlets 112a includes the wind guide surface 22b, in some embodiments of the present application, the air outlets 112a extend in the vertical direction, the transverse direction of the air outlets 112a is the left-right direction of the air conditioner, and the active panels 20 are two, and the two active panels 20 are arranged in the left-right direction of the air outlets 112a. The air conditioner 1 can have a plurality of air outlet states, at least including one of a left air outlet state, a right air outlet state, a left-right air outlet state, and a left-middle-right three air outlet state.

[0077] For example Figure 6 For example, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left air outlet state, the two active panels 20 are respectively at the right limit positions that can be reached, the left side of the left active panel 20 forms an air outlet channel, and the wind at the air outlets 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the air outlet channel. For example, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left air outlet state, the two active panels 20 are respectively at the right limit positions that can be reached, an air outlet channel is formed between the left edge of the air outlets 112a and the left edge of the active panels 20, and the wind at the air outlets 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the air outlet channel to guide the airflow to the left side of the air outlets 112a.

[0078] For example Figure 7As shown, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel. For example, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel.

[0079] For example Figure 8 As shown, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel. For example, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel.

[0080] For example Figure 9 As shown, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel. For example, when the air conditioner 1 is in the left outflow state, the two movable panels 20 are respectively at the left limit positions that each can reach, the left side of the left movable panel 20 and the right side of the right movable panel 20 respectively form the outflow channel, and the air at the air outlet 112a leaves the air conditioner 1 through the outflow channel.

[0081] Thus, the air conditioner 1 can adjust its air volume and air direction by adjusting different air outlet states, so that the air conditioner 1 can better adapt to different air requirements of the user. In addition, it should be noted that the specific structure and driving mode of the driving component 40 are not limited, and can be specifically designed according to the action trajectory of the movable panel 20. For example, the driving component 40 can only push the movable panel 20 to slide left and right. For another example, the driving component 40 can push the movable panel 20 to move forward and backward, and also slide left and right, wherein the forward movement of the movable panel 20 can open the air outlet 112a.
