Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning, and more particularly to an indoor air conditioning unit. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, for cabinet air conditioners with vertical air outlets, the limited air guiding capacity of the louvers restricts the oscillation angle in all directions, easily leading to a small air delivery angle and direct airflow onto people, resulting in reduced user comfort. Furthermore, because the air outlets have a large vertical span, cold air does not easily rise, and warm air does not easily fall, easily causing poor cooling and heating effects. Therefore, there is room for improvement in these technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0082] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0083] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of the invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. Additionally, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided in this invention; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0084] The following is for reference. Figures 1-45 An air conditioning indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0085] The air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a housing 10 and multiple air guide components 20. Specifically, the housing 10 is provided with an air outlet 11, which has multiple air outlet areas 12 arranged in the vertical direction. Further, multiple air guide components 20 are provided at the air outlet 11, and the multiple air guide components 20 are arranged one-to-one with the multiple air outlet areas 12. In this way, the multiple air guide components 20 can control the multiple air outlet areas 12 respectively, thereby meeting the user's diverse needs for air outlet.

[0086] In related technologies, for indoor air conditioning units with vertical air outlets, the limited air guiding capacity of the louvers restricts the swing angle in all directions, which can easily lead to problems such as a small air delivery angle and direct airflow, resulting in reduced user comfort. At the same time, because the air outlet has a large vertical span, cold air does not easily rise and warm air does not easily fall, which can easily cause poor cooling and heating effects.

[0087] Therefore, in this application, multiple air guide components 20 are set to adjust the air outlet 11. Specifically, the air volume of the air outlet 11 is divided by multiple air guide components 20, thereby increasing the air outlet direction and air outlet angle, thus realizing multiple air outlet modes and improving user comfort.

[0088] Furthermore, such as Figure 1As shown, each air guide assembly 20 may include an air guide 30 and a movement drive device 40. Further, the air guide 30 is movably disposed in the corresponding air outlet area 12 to change the air outlet direction. Specifically, according to the present invention, the air guide 30 can be movably disposed in the air outlet area 12, and its movement changes the air outlet direction of the air outlet area 12. Further, the movement drive device 40 is disposed in the housing 10, and is connected to the air guide 30 to drive the air guide 30 to move between a first position and a second position. Thus, by driving the air guide 30 to move between the first and second positions, the air conditioning indoor unit 100 can have multiple different air outlet modes, thereby meeting the diverse needs of users.

[0089] In the first position, the air guide 30 cooperates with the first side of the corresponding air outlet area 12 to guide air towards the second side of the corresponding air outlet area 12; in the second position, the air guide 30 cooperates with the second side of the corresponding air outlet area 12 to guide air towards the first side of the corresponding air outlet area 12.

[0090] It should be noted that the first and second sides of the air outlet area 12 can refer to the two sides of the air outlet area 12 in the width direction. When the air guide 30 moves to the first position, the cooperation between the air guide 30 and the first side of the air outlet area 12 can be overlapping, staggered, or abutting, but is not limited to the above cooperation methods. The purpose of the cooperation between the air guide 30 and one side of the air outlet area 12 is to restrict the airflow from exiting between the air guide 30 and the first side of the air outlet area 12. At this time, the air guide 30 and the second side of the air outlet area 12 are separated and there is a large gap. Most of the airflow can be discharged through the gap between the air guide 30 and the air outlet area 12. At this time, the airflow is large, avoiding direct blowing to the user from the air outlet area 12. At the same time, there are no diffusers or other obstructions to the airflow, resulting in a large airflow and sufficient air volume.

[0091] After the air guide 30 moves to the second position, the cooperation between the air guide 30 and the second side of the air outlet area 12 can be overlapping, staggered, or abutting, but is not limited to the above cooperation methods. The purpose of the cooperation between the air guide 30 and the second side of the air outlet area 12 is to restrict the airflow from exiting between the air guide 30 and the second side of the air outlet area 12. At this time, the air guide 30 and the first side of the air outlet area 12 are separated by a large gap, and most of the airflow can be discharged through the gap between the air guide 30 and the air outlet area 12. At this time, the airflow is large, avoiding direct blowing to the user from the air outlet area 12. At the same time, there are no diffusers or other obstructions to the airflow, resulting in a large airflow and sufficient air volume.

[0092] Furthermore, the air guide 30 can move between a first position and a second position. Between the first and second positions, the air guide 30 defines a first air outlet channel 50 between the first and second positions and between the air guide 30 and the first side of the corresponding air outlet area 12, and between the air guide 30 and the second side of the corresponding air outlet area 12. This allows airflow to exit through both sides. Since the air guide 30 is located in the middle of the air outlet area 12, it avoids direct airflow to the user, achieving the effect of direct airflow for cooling. At the same time, the airflow blown out through the first air outlet channels 50 on both sides forms an enveloping airflow effect, which can quickly and evenly reduce the indoor air temperature, and also quickly cool the walls, solving the problem of furnace heat effect in hot summers.

[0093] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 divides the air volume of the air outlet 11 through multiple air guide components 20, thereby increasing the air outlet direction and air outlet angle, thus realizing multiple air outlet modes and improving user comfort.

[0094] In some embodiments, each air outlet zone 12 is provided with multiple air guides 30. Furthermore, the multiple air guides 30 can move synchronously after being combined, preventing airflow between adjacent air guides 30. The multiple air guides 30 move between a first position, a second position, and between the first and second positions to change the air outlet direction and mode. It should be noted that the multiple air guides 30 can also move asynchronously, thereby allowing for separate control of multiple air outlet zones 12 to meet the user's diverse air outlet needs.

[0095] Furthermore, the multiple air guides 30 corresponding to each air outlet area 12 can be selectively positioned away from each other to define a second air outlet channel 60 between two adjacent air guides 30. Airflow can pass between two adjacent air guides 30 to allow the indoor unit 100 to discharge air from the front. Specifically, when the multiple air guides 30 are located between a first position and a second position, a second air outlet channel 60 is formed between the air guide 30 adjacent to the first side of the air outlet area 12 and the first side of the air outlet area 12. Similarly, a second air outlet channel 60 is formed between the air guide 30 adjacent to the second side of the air outlet area 12 and the second side of the air outlet area 12. Further, a first air outlet channel 50 is formed between two adjacent air guides 30. Thus, the airflow can be diverted through the multiple second air outlet channels 60. The first air outlet channel 50 faces the user directly, allowing for airflow adjustment according to needs, thereby improving the user experience. Simultaneously, the first air outlet channel 50 and the second air outlet channel 60 form an airflow that encircles the indoor space, improving the indoor temperature control effect.

[0096] In some embodiments, the air guide 30 is a first air guide 37 or a second air guide 38. Further, in one specific embodiment, the first air guide 37 is located on the left side of the air outlet area 12, and the second air guide 38 is located on the right side of the air outlet area 12. Of course, in another embodiment, the first air guide 37 may also be located on the right side of the air outlet area 12, and the second air guide 38 may also be located on the left side of the air outlet area 12; this will not be elaborated further here. Further, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 extend in the same direction and are in the same direction as the length of the air guide assembly 20. Specifically, refer to... Figure 5 As shown, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 extend in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction, respectively.

[0097] In some embodiments, there are two air guide components 20 and two air outlet areas 12. The two air guide components 20 are configured in a one-to-one correspondence with the two air outlet areas 12. Further, each air guide component 20 includes two air guide elements 30. The two air guide elements 30 corresponding to each air outlet area 12 can be selectively spaced away from each other to define a second air outlet channel 60 between the two air guide elements 30. In this way, by adjusting the air outlet 11 through multiple air guide components 20, the air volume of the air outlet 11 is divided, thereby increasing the air outlet direction and air outlet angle, thus realizing multiple air outlet modes and improving user comfort.

[0098] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner has a first mode. In the first mode, the indoor unit 100 is in a cooling state, and a second air outlet duct 60 is defined between the plurality of air guide elements 30 of the at least one upper air guide assembly 20; the plurality of air guide elements 30 of the lowermost air guide assembly 20 are in a combined state and located directly in front of the corresponding air outlet area 12. Thus, by opening the upper second air outlet duct 60 and closing the lower second air outlet duct 60, cold air is directed upwards, resulting in excellent cooling effect. This avoids direct exposure to cold air for shorter children, thereby enabling multiple air outlet modes for the indoor unit 100, improving user comfort and choice. It should be noted that the first mode is a cooling mode.

[0099] In some embodiments, in a first mode, first air outlet channels 50 are defined between the two sides of at least one upper air guide component 20 and the first and second sides of the corresponding air outlet area 12; first air outlet channels 50 are also defined between the two sides of the lowermost air guide component 20 and the first and second sides of the corresponding air outlet area 12. Thus, airflow can be diverted through multiple second air outlet channels 60. The first air outlet channels 50 face the user directly, allowing for adjustment of airflow according to needs, thereby improving the user experience. Simultaneously, the first air outlet channels 50 and the second air outlet channels 60 form an airflow that encircles the indoor space, improving the temperature control effect.

[0100] In some embodiments, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner has a second mode. In the second mode, the indoor unit 100 is in heating mode, and the plurality of air guide elements 30 of at least one upper air guide assembly 20 are in a combined state and located directly in front of the corresponding air outlet area 12; a second air outlet channel 60 is defined between the plurality of air guide elements 30 of the lowermost air guide assembly 20. Thus, by opening the lower second air outlet channel 60 and closing the upper second air outlet channel 60, warm air is directed downwards, resulting in better heating effect and more comfortable foot warmth. This achieves multiple air outlet modes for the indoor unit 100, improving user comfort and choice. It should be noted that the second mode is the heating mode.

[0101] In some embodiments, in the second mode, first air outlet channels 50 are defined between the two sides of at least one upper air guide component 20 and the first and second sides of the corresponding air outlet area 12, respectively; first air outlet channels 50 are also defined between the two sides of the lowermost air guide component 20 and the first and second sides of the corresponding air outlet area 12, respectively. Thus, airflow can be diverted through multiple second air outlet channels 60. The first air outlet channels 50 face the user directly, allowing for adjustment of airflow according to needs, thereby improving the user experience. Simultaneously, the first air outlet channels 50 and the second air outlet channels 60 form an airflow that encircles the indoor space, improving the temperature control effect.

[0102] Furthermore, according to the present invention, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be adjusted differently for the first mode and the second mode, that is, the air outlet 11 can be adjusted by multiple air guide components 20 to block and guide the air volume of the air outlet 11 facing the user's activity area, thereby adjusting the flow direction of cold air and hot air, thereby improving the cooling and heating effect.

[0103] In some embodiments, the air guide assembly 20 has a split state and a combined state. In the split state, the two air guides 30 are spaced apart to create a second air outlet channel 60 between them. In the combined state, the two air guides 30 are joined together to close the second air outlet channel 60. It is understood that the air guide assembly 30 can switch between the split and combined states, which helps to further enrich the air outlet configuration of the indoor unit 100.

[0104] For example, in the split state, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are spaced apart, so that in the left-right direction, there is a second air outlet channel 60 between the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38. The airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the left space of the first air guide 37, the second air outlet channel 60, and the right space of the second air guide 38. At this time, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in a three-airflow mode, which can greatly increase the air supply angle and shorten the sweeping cycle, which is conducive to meeting the needs of multiple people for direct airflow and improving the comfort of direct airflow; furthermore, in the combined state... In this state, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are spliced ​​together in the left and right directions to close the second air outlet 60. The airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the left space of the first air guide 37 and the right space of the second air guide 38. The indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in the dual-flow air outlet mode at this time. It can be understood that in the dual-flow air outlet mode, two encircling airflows can be formed to form the effect of encircling the indoor space. While cooling the air in the room, it can also quickly cool the walls, solving the furnace heat effect in hot summer, thus helping to maintain the living room's long-lasting cool effect.

[0105] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 As shown, the air guide 30 has an air guide surface 31, which is constructed as an arc-shaped surface protruding towards the outside of the housing 10. The air guide 30 can be kept directly opposite the air outlet area 12. The air guide surface 31 is used to guide the airflow blown out of the air outlet area 12. The arc-shaped construction of the air guide surface 31 can reduce the loss of airflow velocity during the air guide 30's airflow guidance process, thereby improving the air supply efficiency of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner. Furthermore, each air guide surface 31 includes an inner air guide surface and an outer air guide surface. In the combined state, the outer air guide surfaces of the two air guide components 30 are smoothly connected. The distance between the inner air guide surface and the outer air guide surface of each air guide component 30 gradually decreases in the direction away from the other air guide component 30. Furthermore, in the combined state, by making the outer air guide surfaces of the two air guide components 30 smoothly connected, when the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in the off state, the outer air guide surface of the combined air guide assembly 20 transitions smoothly, which helps to improve the closing effect of the air guide component 30 on the air outlet 11 and is aesthetically pleasing.

[0106] In some embodiments, the inner air guiding surface of each air guide 30 is formed as a concave curved surface recessed towards the outer air guiding surface, and the outer air guiding surface of each air guide 30 is formed as a convex curved surface protruding away from the inner air guiding surface. It is understood that by forming the outer air guiding surface of the air guide 30 as a convex curved surface protruding away from the inner air guiding surface, the shape of the air guide 30 can be adapted to the shape of the exterior surface of the air conditioning indoor unit 100, which is beneficial to improving the aesthetic appearance of the air conditioning indoor unit 100. Furthermore, by forming the inner air guiding surface of the air guide 30 as a concave curved surface recessed towards the outer air guiding surface, the airflow from the air outlet 11 can be guided by the inner air guiding surface away from the other air guide 30, which is beneficial to increasing the air delivery range of the air conditioning indoor unit 100. Additionally, the smooth transition of the inner air guiding surface of the air guide 30 in the airflow direction is beneficial to reducing airflow noise.

[0107] Since the air guide 30 needs to guide the airflow to the first or second side of the air outlet area 12 to form an enveloping airflow when in the first and second positions, the air guide surface 31 is constructed as an arc-shaped surface protruding towards the outside of the casing 10. This allows the airflow to flow along the arc-shaped surface of the air guide surface 31 when it blows onto the air guide surface 31. This reduces the friction between the airflow and the air guide surface 31 when the air outlet direction is changed, and also reduces the noise generated by the friction between the airflow and the air guide 30, further optimizing the performance of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0108] In some embodiments, the air guide 30 includes an inner air guide plate 32 and an outer air guide plate 33. The inner air guide plate 32 is provided with the air guiding surface 31 in the above embodiments. The outer air guide plate 33 is located outside the inner air guide plate 32. The ends of the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32 cooperate to define a cavity 34 between the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32. The air guide 30 is composed of two parts, the inner air guide plate 32 and the outer air guide plate 33, which reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the air guide 30. The cavity 34 between the inner air guide plate 32 and the outer air guide plate 33 reduces the weight of the air guide 30, thereby reducing the overall weight of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 and saving the cost of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0109] The inner air guide plate 32 and the outer air guide plate 33 are fitted at their ends. The ends can be the outer periphery of the outer air guide plate 33 and the outer periphery of the inner air guide plate 32. Multiple first connecting parts 35 can be provided on the outer periphery of the outer air guide plate 33, and multiple second connecting parts 36 that cooperate with the first connecting parts 35 are provided on the outer periphery extension of the inner air guide plate 32. The first connecting parts 35 and the second connecting parts 36 can be fixed together by snap-fit, screw connection or other means to fix the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32 to form a complete air guide component 30 structure.

[0110] Furthermore, the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32 are engaged by a snap-fit ​​mechanism, which reduces the difficulty of their engagement. The snap-fit ​​mechanism is secure, and the first connecting part 35 and the second connecting part 36 can be formed on the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32 respectively. The forming is easy, and the snap-fit ​​mechanism can eliminate the need for separate assembly steps during the subsequent assembly of the outer air guide plate 33 and the inner air guide plate 32, thus helping to improve the production pace.

[0111] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the outer air guide plate 33 is constructed as a convex arc surface, which can have the same roundness as the outer surface of the housing 10, so that the air guide 30 overlaps or cooperates with the housing 10 to form an appearance surface with the same arc when the air outlet area 12 is closed, thereby improving the aesthetics of the air guide 30 when the air outlet area 12 is closed.

[0112] In some embodiments, when there is one air guide 30, the cross section of the air guide 30 can be constructed as a triangle, a wedge, or a crescent shape; when there are multiple air guides 30, the structure formed by combining multiple air guides 30 is a triangle, a wedge, or a crescent shape. The cross section of the air guide 30 mentioned here is the cross section formed by combining multiple air guides 30.

[0113] In the case where there are one or more air guides 30, and the cross-sectional structure of the air guide 30 or the combination of air guides 30 is triangular, the air guide 30 can be constructed as an isosceles obtuse triangle, with the angle of the obtuse triangle facing the air outlet area 12, and the long side of the triangle located on the side away from the air outlet area 12.

[0114] In some embodiments, the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 is constructed as a convex arc-shaped surface. For example, in one specific embodiment, the arc-shaped surface of the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 may have the same curvature as the arc-shaped surface of the outer surface of the outer air guide plate 33, which helps to improve the overall aesthetics of the air guide component 30. Of course, in other embodiments, the arc-shaped surface of the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 may have a different curvature than the arc-shaped surface of the outer surface of the outer air guide plate 33, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0115] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2As shown, it also includes: air duct component 70. Specifically, the air duct component 70 is located inside the housing 10. The air outlet end 71 of the air duct component 70 is directly opposite the air outlet 11. Furthermore, when the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is turned off, the distance between the protrusion 321 on the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 and the air outlet end 71 of the air duct component 70 is 30-60mm. It should be noted that the distance between the protrusion 321 on the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 and the air outlet 71 of the air duct component 70 is the distance of a perpendicular line drawn from the protrusion 321 to the air outlet 71. By setting the distance between the protrusion 321 on the inner surface of the inner air guide plate 32 and the air outlet 71 of the air duct component 70 to 30-60mm, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can have the best cooling effect. It should be noted that when the distance between the protrusion 321 and the air outlet 71 is less than 30mm, the air guide component 30 obstructs the air outlet 71 too much, which makes the cooling effect of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 worse; when the distance between the protrusion 321 and the air outlet 71 is greater than 60mm, the air guide component 30 does not obstruct the air outlet 71 enough, which makes the air guide component 30 lose its air guiding function.

[0116] In some embodiments, each air guide assembly 20 includes two moving drive devices 40, which are located at two points along the length of the corresponding air guide 30. Thus, the two moving drive devices 40 can move the corresponding air guide 30 in the left-right direction, thereby adjusting the airflow to multiple air outlet areas 12, achieving various air outlet modes and improving user comfort.

[0117] In some embodiments, the mobile drive device 40 includes a drive box 41, two racks 42, and a sliding drive mechanism 43. The drive box 41 has two slide rails 411 and a clearance groove 412. The two racks 42 are both disposed inside the drive box 41. The two racks 42 are respectively engaged with the two slide rails 411. The sliding drive mechanism 43 drives each rack 42 to move along the corresponding slide rail 411. The two racks 42 are respectively linked with the two air guides 30 through the linkage 44 passing through the clearance groove 412, so that each rack 42 drives the corresponding air guide 30 to move along the corresponding slide rail 411 through the corresponding linkage 44.

[0118] Furthermore, referring to Figure 17-19As shown, the two racks 42 are respectively the first rack 421 and the second rack 422, the two slide rails 411 are respectively the first slide rail 4111 and the second slide rail 4112, and the two linkages 44 are respectively the first linkage 441 and the second linkage 442. The first rack 421 cooperates with the first slide rail 4111, and the second rack 422 cooperates with the second slide rail 4112. The first rack 421 is connected to the first air guide 37 through the first linkage 441, and the second rack 422 is connected to the second air guide 38 through the second linkage 442. The first linkage 441 and the second linkage 442 respectively pass through the clearance groove 412 of the drive box 41. Specifically, the upper and lower ends of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are provided with multiple insertion holes 301. The first linkage 441 and the second linkage 442 can be inserted and cooperated with the multiple insertion holes 301, thereby realizing the connection between the linkage 44 and the air guide 30.

[0119] It is understandable that by setting both the first rack 421 and the second rack 422 inside the drive box 41, the moving drive device 40 can drive the first rack 421 to move along the first slide rail 4111. The first rack 421 drives the first air guide 37 to move along the length direction of the first slide rail 4111 through the first linkage 441. The moving drive device 40 can also drive the second rack 422 to move along the second slide rail 4112. The second rack 422 drives the second air guide 38 to move along the length direction of the second slide rail 4112 through the second linkage 442. This helps to reduce the influence of external dust and other debris on the movement of the rack 42 along the slide rail 411. At the same time, the reliability of the movement of the rack 42 along the corresponding slide rail 411 is high, which can improve the reliability of the air guide assembly 20 and reduce safety hazards.

[0120] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 17-19 As shown, the sliding drive mechanism 43 includes two gears 431 and two first motors 432. The two gears 431 mesh with two racks 42 respectively, so that each gear 431 drives the corresponding rack 42 to move along the corresponding slide rail 411. The two first motors 432 correspond to the two gears 431 respectively, so that each first motor 432 drives the corresponding gear 431 to rotate. It can be understood that by making the moving drive device 40 include two independently controlled first motors 432, the first motors 432 can independently control the rotation of the corresponding gears 431. When the air guide assembly 20 is installed on the air conditioner indoor unit 100, the air outlet modes of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be further enriched.

[0121] Furthermore, both first motors 432 are fixed to the drive box 41 and located outside the drive box 41. The two gears 431 are a first gear 4311 and a second gear 4312. The first gear 4311 meshes with the first rack 421 to move along the first slide rail 4111, and the second gear 4312 meshes with the second rack 422 to move along the second slide rail 4112. The drive shaft 4321 of one of the first motors 432 passes through the drive box 41 and is connected to the first gear 4311 to drive the first gear 4311 to rotate. The first gear 4311 drives the first air guide 37 to move along the first slide rail 4111 via the first rack 421. The drive shaft 4321 of the other first motor 432 passes through the drive box 41. 1 is connected to the second gear 4312 to drive the second gear 4312 to rotate. The second gear 4312 drives the second air guide 38 to move along the second slide rail 4112 through the second rack 422. Thus, the two first motors 432 can drive the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 to move toward or away from each other, and can also drive the two air guides 30 to move in one direction. In a specific embodiment, the two air guides 30 can move to the left to the left limit position at the same time. In a specific embodiment, the two air guides 30 can move to the right to the right limit position at the same time. When the air guide assembly 20 is installed in the air conditioner indoor unit 100, it can further enrich the air outlet mode of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, thereby helping to meet the personalized needs of users.

[0122] It should be noted that, in another specific embodiment, the sliding drive mechanism 43 may also include: two gears 431 and a first motor 432. The two gears 431 mesh with two racks 42 respectively, so that each gear 431 drives the corresponding rack 42 to move along the corresponding slide rail 411. The two gears 431 are externally meshed, and the first motor 432 drives one of the gears 431 to rotate. The gear 431 connected to the first motor 432 drives the other gear 431 to rotate. It can be understood that the rotation directions of the two gears 431 are opposite, so that the movement directions of the two racks 42 are opposite, and thus the movement directions of the two air guides 30 are opposite. Thus, the first motor 432 can simultaneously drive the two air guides 30 to move towards or away from each other. The number of motors used is small. At the same time, when the air guide assembly 20 is installed in the air conditioner indoor unit 100, the two air guides 30 can switch between a split state and a combined state, which is beneficial for the air conditioner indoor unit 100 to have multiple air outlet modes to meet the personalized needs of users.

[0123] Furthermore, the first motor 432 is mounted on the drive box 41 and located outside the drive box 41. Two gears 431 are respectively the first gear 4311 and the second gear 4312. The first gear 4311 meshes with the first rack 421 to cause the first rack 421 to move along the first slide rail 4111. The second gear 4312 meshes with the second rack 422 to cause the second rack 422 to move along the second slide rail 4112. The first gear 4311 and the second gear 4312 are externally meshed. The drive shaft 4321 of the first motor 432 passes through the drive box 41 and is connected to the first gear 4311 to drive the first… When gear 4311 rotates, the first gear 4311 can drive the second gear 4312 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the first rack 421 and the second rack 422 to slide to the left and right or towards the center. Thus, the first motor 432 can simultaneously drive the air guide 30 to move towards or away from each other. The number of motors used is small. At the same time, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 can switch between separate and combined states. When the air guide assembly 20 is installed in the air conditioner indoor unit 100, it is beneficial to enable the air conditioner indoor unit 100 to have multiple air outlet modes, which can meet the personalized needs of users.

[0124] In some embodiments, both slide rails 411 are arc-shaped slide rails 411 and are concentrically arranged with equal radii. Specifically, as shown in... Figure 23 and Figure 24 As shown, both the first slide rail 4111 and the second slide rail 4112 are formed into arc shapes and are concentrically arranged with equal radii. This helps to ensure that the movement trajectories of the first rack 421 and the second rack 422 are concentric and have equal radii, which in turn helps to ensure that the movement trajectories of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are concentric and have equal radii, thereby improving the reliability of the air guide assembly 20. At the same time, by making the movement trajectories of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 concentric and have equal radii, it is easy to achieve the splicing of the two air guides 30 in the combined state.

[0125] In some embodiments, each slide rail 411 includes a groove 47 on at least one side of the corresponding rack 42 in the thickness direction. In one specific embodiment, the groove 47 may be provided on one side of the corresponding rack 42 in the thickness direction of each slide rail 411; in another embodiment, the groove 47 may be provided on both sides of the corresponding rack 42 in the thickness direction of each slide rail 411, and a sliding post 46 may be provided on the corresponding side of the corresponding rack 42 in the thickness direction of each rack 42, the sliding post 46 cooperating with the corresponding groove 47. It is understood that the cooperation between the slide rail 411 and the groove 47 helps to ensure the reliability of the cooperation between the slide rail 411 and the corresponding rack 42, and the structure is simple, easy to install, and low in cost.

[0126] Further, in a specific embodiment, the first slide rail 4111 includes slide grooves 47 on both sides of the first rack 421 in the thickness direction, and first slide posts 461 are provided on both sides of the first rack 421 in the thickness direction. There are multiple first slide posts 461 arranged in the length direction of the first rack 421. Each first slide post 461 is formed into a cylinder. The first slide post 461 extends into the corresponding slide groove 47 and slides along the first slide rail 4111. The second slide rail 4112 includes slide grooves 47 on both sides of the second rack 422 in the thickness direction, and second slide posts 462 are provided on both sides of the second rack 422 in the thickness direction. Each second slide post 462 is formed into a cylinder. The second slide post 462 extends into the corresponding slide groove 47 and slides along the second slide rail 4112.

[0127] In some embodiments, such as Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, the drive box 41 includes a box cover 401, a box frame 402, and a box base 403. The box cover 401 and the box base 403 are respectively disposed on both sides of the box frame 402. The two racks 42 are a first rack 421 and a second rack 422, respectively. The first rack 421 is disposed between the box cover 401 and the box frame 402. At least one of the box cover 401 and the box frame 402 has a slide rail 411 on the side facing the first rack 421 that corresponds to and cooperates with the first rack 421. In other words, the drive box 401 and the box frame 402 can be connected by a slide rail 411. One of the boxes in the frame 402 has a slide rail 411 on its side facing the first rack 421, which corresponds to and engages with the first rack 421. Alternatively, both the box cover 401 and the box frame 402 have slide rails 411 on their sides facing the first rack 421. Further, a second rack 422 is located between the box frame 402 and the box base 403, and at least one of the box frame 402 and the box base 403 has a slide rail 411 on its side facing the second rack 422, which corresponds to and engages with the second rack 422. In other words, one of the box frame 402 and the box base 403 has a slide rail 411 on its side facing the second rack 422, which corresponds to and engages with the second rack 422; or both the box frame 402 and the box base 403 have slide rails 411 on their sides facing the second rack 422. Understandably, the box frame 402 can spatially separate the first rack 421 and the second rack 422, which helps to ensure the reliability of the first rack 421 and the second rack 422 in driving the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 respectively.

[0128] Furthermore, referring to Figures 20-22As shown, the box cover 401, box frame 402, and box base 403 are arranged in the vertical direction. The first rack 421 is located between the box cover 401 and the box frame 402. The side of the box cover 401 and the box frame 402 facing the first rack 421 is provided with a first slide rail 4111 that corresponds to and cooperates with the first rack 421. The second rack 422 is located between the box frame 402 and the box base 403. The side of the box frame 402 and the box base 403 facing the second rack 422 is provided with a second slide rail 4112 that corresponds to and cooperates with the second rack 422.

[0129] Furthermore, taking the upper air guide assembly 20 as an example, the drive box 41 is located on the same side along the length of the air guide 30, and the box frame 402 is located on the side of the box base 403 away from the air guide assembly 30, referring to... Figure 19 As shown, the box frame 402 has a through hole 48, and the box base 403 has a relief groove 412. The through hole 48 and the relief groove 412 are arranged opposite to each other. The linkage 44 includes a first linkage 441 and a second linkage 442. The insertion hole 301 includes a first insertion hole 3011 and a second insertion hole 3012. Further, one of the two air guides 30 has a first insertion hole 3011 on the side facing the box base 403. The first rack 421 is provided with a first linkage 441. The first linkage 441 passes through the through hole 48 and the relief groove 412 and is inserted into the first insertion hole 3011. The other of the two air guides 30 has a second insertion hole 3012 on the side facing the box base 403. The second rack 422 is provided with a second linkage 442. The second linkage 442 passes through the relief groove 412 and is inserted into the second insertion hole 3012. It is understandable that by having a through hole 48 on the box frame 402 and a clearance groove 412 on the box base 403, with the through hole 48 and the clearance groove 412 being arranged opposite to each other, the first rack 421 and the second rack 422 can be installed compactly on the drive box 41, which is beneficial to ensuring the reliability of the movement of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38. Further, in a specific embodiment, there are multiple first insertion holes 3011 and multiple first linkages 441, with each pair of first insertion holes 3011 and multiple first linkages 441 corresponding to each other. Similarly, there are multiple second insertion holes 3012 and multiple second linkages 442, with each pair of second insertion holes 3012 and multiple second linkages 442 corresponding to each other. Of course, when the cross-section of the insertion hole is not circular, the rack 42 and the corresponding air guide 30 can also be connected by only one linkage 44.

[0130] Optionally, the first rack 421 and the first linkage 441 are integral parts. Therefore, this integral structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the first rack 421 and the first linkage 441, but also facilitates molding and simplifies manufacturing. Furthermore, it eliminates unnecessary assembly parts and connection processes, greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the first rack 421 and the first linkage 441, ensuring the reliability of their connection. Moreover, the integral structure has higher overall strength and stability, is easier to assemble, and has a longer service life.

[0131] Optionally, the second rack 422 and the second linkage 442 are integral parts. This integral structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the second rack 422 and the second linkage 442, but also facilitates molding and simplifies manufacturing. Furthermore, it eliminates unnecessary assembly parts and connection processes, greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the second rack 422 and the second linkage 442, ensuring the reliability of the connection between them. Moreover, the integral structure has higher overall strength and stability, is easier to assemble, and has a longer service life.

[0132] In some optional embodiments, the moving drive device 40 is located on the same side of the two air guides 30 along their length. This facilitates installation and allows for a compact arrangement of the moving drive device 40 and the multiple air guides 30, thus reducing the overall space occupied by the indoor unit 100. For example, the moving drive device 40 is located on both sides of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 in the vertical direction.

[0133] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 23 and Figure 24 As shown, both racks 42 are arc-shaped racks 42 and are concentrically arranged with equal radii. The two racks 42 are spaced apart along the length of the air guide 30 assembly. This facilitates the synchronous movement of a group of air guides 30, thereby ensuring the reliability of the air guide 30 assembly. For example, in one example, the number of teeth, module, and pitch circle diameter of the first gear 4311 and the first rack 421 are equal to those of the second gear 4312 and the second rack 422, which facilitates the synchronous movement of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 in the same group.

[0134] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 27 and Figure 28 As shown, a moving drive device 40 is provided on each of the two sides along the length of the air guide assembly 20. For example, a moving drive device 40 is provided on both the upper and lower sides of a group of air guide components 30. This helps to ensure the reliability of the movement of the first air guide component 37 and the second air guide component 38 in the same group according to a preset trajectory, thereby ensuring the reliability of the operation of the air guide assembly 20.

[0135] In some embodiments, for two adjacent drive boxes 41 in the vertical direction, the base 403 of the upper drive box 41 is connected to the cover 401 of the lower drive box 41. Specifically, two adjacent moving drive devices 40 in the vertical direction can jointly form an intermediate drive mechanism 45. The intermediate drive mechanism 45 is connected to the housing 10 in the left-right direction and to a plurality of air guides 30 in the vertical direction.

[0136] In some embodiments, the base 403 of the upper drive box 41 and the cover 401 of the lower drive box 41 are integral parts. This integral structure not only ensures the structural and performance stability of the upper base 403 and the lower cover 401, but also facilitates molding and manufacturing, eliminating unnecessary assembly parts and connection processes. This significantly improves the assembly efficiency of the upper base 403 and the lower cover 401, ensuring the reliability of their connection. Furthermore, the integral structure has higher overall strength and stability, is easier to assemble, and has a longer lifespan. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the base 403 of the upper drive box 41 and the cover 401 of the lower drive box 41 can also be separate parts, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0137] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, it also includes: a switch door 80 component, which includes two vertically extending switch doors 80. The two switch doors 80 are arranged laterally on both sides of the air outlet 11. The two switch doors 80 are movable between a closed position and an open position. The two switch doors 80 can be moved to the closed position so that the switch doors 80 are adjacent to the air guide 30. When the two switch doors 80 are moved to the open position, the air guide 30 can be selectively moved between a first position and a second position.

[0138] Understandably, by moving the two doors 80 to the open position, the air guide assembly 20 can switch between the combined state and the split state, enabling the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner to achieve a single-flow air outlet mode, a dual-flow air outlet mode, or a tri-flow air supply mode. This corresponds to the airflow of single-flow air outlet, dual-flow air outlet, or tri-flow air outlet, which is compatible with the front air outlet of a normal single cross-flow cabinet air conditioner, and also achieves the functions of wind avoidance for people or prevention of direct airflow, as well as flexible switching between multiple airflow supply. Furthermore, it has a simple structure, low cost, good reliability, and is easy to control.

[0139] In this embodiment, the switch door 80 component can be disposed on the outer periphery of the housing 10. In the closed state, the switch door 80 and the air guide 30 are adjacent to each other. It should be noted that the adjacent state can be that part of the edge of the switch door 80 and part of the edge of the air guide 30 contact each other to fit together. In the closed state, part of the air guide 30 is directly opposite the air outlet 11, and the two sides of the air guide 30 are adjacent to the switch door 80 so that the switch door 80 and the air guide 30 together form the outer surface of the housing 10.

[0140] When the two doors 80 are in the open state, they are far apart from each other to avoid the movement trajectory of the air guide 30. In particular, the doors 80 can be moved away from the first and second positions, so that the air guide 30 does not interfere with the doors 80 during its movement in the first and second positions.

[0141] like Figure 2 As shown, according to the present invention, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is configured to move between the open and closed positions by setting the door 80 to form a complete appearance surface with the air guide 30 in the closed position, thereby improving the aesthetics of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, reducing the operating angle of the door 80, improving the technological feel of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, and increasing the stability of the door 80 during operation.

[0142] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the switch door 80 includes a first switch door 801 and a second switch door 802, which are located on the left and right sides of the air guide assembly 20. Both the first switch door 801 and the second switch door 802 are movable between an open position and a closed position. When the switch door 80 is in the closed state, it covers the air outlet 11 to close it. The switch door 80 not only closes the air outlet 11 but also closes the air guide component 30 located at the air outlet 11. In this embodiment, the switch door 80 has a large coverage area when closed, which can effectively protect the outer surface of the air guide surface 31 when closed.

[0143] Furthermore, when the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are combined in the left and right directions and located directly in front of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, and when the first switch door 801 and the second switch door 802 are both in the open position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the first air outlet channel 50 located on the left side of the space on the left side of the first air guide 37 and the first air outlet channel 50 located on the right side of the space on the right side of the second air guide 38. At this time, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in a dual-flow air outlet mode, which can realize the functions of wind avoiding people and preventing direct blowing. It can be understood that in the dual-flow air outlet mode, two encircling airflows can be formed to form the effect of encircling the indoor space. While cooling the air in the room, it can also quickly cool the walls, solving the furnace heat effect in hot summer, thus helping to maintain the living room's long-lasting cool effect.

[0144] Furthermore, when the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are in a split state, and the first switch door 801 and the second switch door 802 are both in the open position and are separated from the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 respectively, the airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the left space of the first air guide 37, the second air outlet channel 60 and the right space of the second air guide 38. At this time, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is in a three-airflow air supply mode, which can greatly increase the air supply angle and shorten the sweeping cycle, which is conducive to meeting the needs of multiple people for direct airflow and improving the comfort of direct airflow.

[0145] Furthermore, when the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are in a separate state, and the first switch door 801 and the second switch door 802 are both in the open position and overlap with the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 respectively, the width of the second air outlet channel 60 is greater than the width of the second air outlet channel 60 in the above-mentioned three-flow air supply mode. Thus, the single-flow air outlet mode of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be realized, and the air conditioner indoor unit 100 concentrates the air outlet towards the front, which is conducive to quickly reducing the temperature of the indoor environment.

[0146] In some embodiments of the present invention, when the air guide assembly 20 is located directly in front of the air outlet 11 and the two opening and closing doors 80 slide backward to the open position, a first air outlet channel 50 is formed between each opening and closing door 80 and the air guide assembly 20. Further, in a specific embodiment, each first air outlet channel 50 may be provided with a baffle plate, which is movable between a position that avoids the first air outlet channel 50 and a position that blocks the first air outlet channel 50. It is understood that when the baffle plate is in the avoidance position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 flows directly through the first air outlet channel 50; when the baffle plate is in the blocking position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 is dispersed by the baffle plate and flows out through the first air outlet channel 50, thereby weakening the airflow and achieving a windless airflow from the indoor unit 100, which is beneficial for further improving the user experience.

[0147] In some specific examples, when the air guide assembly 20 is in the combined state and located directly in front of the air outlet 11, and the two opening and closing doors 80 slide backward to the open position, a first air outlet channel 50 is formed between the two opening and closing doors 80 and the air guide assembly 20. The airflow from the air outlet 11 flows out through the two first air outlet channels 50. When the baffle is in the avoidance position, the airflow of the indoor unit 100 can be guaranteed, and the effect of wind avoiding people can be achieved. When the baffle is switched to the blocking position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 is dispersed by the baffle and flows out through the first air outlet channel 50. On the basis of wind avoiding people, the airflow is further weakened, which is conducive to further improving the user experience.

[0148] Furthermore, when the air guide assembly 20 is in a split state and located directly in front of the air outlet 11, and the two opening and closing doors 80 slide backward to the open position, a first air outlet channel 50 is formed between the two opening and closing doors 80 and the air guide assembly 20, and a second air outlet channel 60 is formed between the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38. The airflow from the air outlet 11 flows out through the second air outlet channel 60 and the two first air outlet channels 50 respectively. At this time, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in a three-airflow mode. When the baffle is in the avoidance position, the air volume of the indoor unit 100 can be guaranteed, the air supply angle can be greatly increased, the sweeping cycle can be shortened, which is conducive to meeting the needs of multiple people for direct airflow and improving the comfort of direct airflow. When the baffle is in the blocking position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 is dispersed by the baffle and flows out through the first air outlet channel 50, which can weaken the airflow from the first air outlet channel 50 and improve the comfort of direct airflow, which is conducive to further enriching the air outlet modes of the indoor unit 100.

[0149] like Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the switch door 80 is constructed as a revolving door, and the rear edge of the switch door 80 is hinged to the housing 10 so that the rear edge of the revolving door can rotate. The switch door 80 can be constructed as two opposing switch doors 80, and the switch door 80 is constructed as a long strip switch door 80 and extends in the same direction as the air outlet 11. The rear edge of the switch door 80 extends in the vertical direction and can be hinged to the housing 10. During rotation, the switch door 80 avoids the movement trajectory of the air guide 30.

[0150] like Figure 2 In some embodiments, when the switch door 80 is in the closed state, the outer surface of the switch door 80 is spliced ​​with the outer surface of the air guide 30 to form an integral unit. When the switch door 80 switches from the closed state to the open state, the switch door 80 rotates toward the inside of the housing 10 so that the switch door 80 and the air guide 30 are staggered to form an air outlet channel. This arrangement of the switch door 80 makes the movement range of the switch door 80 small, and the operation is convenient and easy to control.

[0151] In some embodiments, when the switch door 80 is in the closed state, the inner surface of the switch door 80 covers the outer surface of the air guide 30, the outer surface of the switch door 80 serves as the appearance surface, and the switch door 80 opens towards the outside of the housing 10 in a split manner to expose the air guide 30, so that the air guide 30 can move along a preset trajectory.

[0152] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the switch door 80 is constructed as a sliding door, which slides around the outer periphery of the housing 10 and along the circumference of the housing 10. Constructing the switch door 80 as a sliding door greatly reduces the range of motion of the switch door 80, and the transition between the open and closed states of the switch door 80 is more aesthetically pleasing, improving the user experience of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 and enhancing the user's experience.

[0153] The sliding door mentioned here can be a sliding door with a fixed sliding track on the casing 10 of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner. When the sliding door is in the closed position, the sliding door remains in a position surrounding the casing 10. The sliding track can be set around the casing 10 so that when the sliding door is opened, it can slide away from each other and slide along the extension direction of the outer periphery of the casing 10.

[0154] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner also includes two vertically extending storage cavities 39. Furthermore, the indoor unit 100 also includes an outer panel 391 that covers the outside of each storage cavity 39. The two storage cavities 39 are respectively located on both sides of the air guide assembly 20. The moving drive device 40 can drive each air guide 30 to slide into the corresponding storage cavity 39. It is understood that by enabling the moving drive device 40 to drive each air guide 30 to slide into the corresponding storage cavity 39, it is beneficial to avoid designing two large opening and closing doors 80, thereby reducing production costs.

[0155] In some examples, the opening of the storage cavity 39 may also be provided with a rotating door, which includes a first rotating door and a second rotating door. The first rotating door and the second rotating door are located on the left and right sides of the air guide assembly 20. Both the first rotating door and the second rotating door can rotate between a first position and a second position. When the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are in a combined state in the left and right direction and are located in front of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, and both the first rotating door and the second rotating door are in the second position, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is in the off state.

[0156] Furthermore, when the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are combined in the left and right directions and located directly in front of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner, and when both the first rotating door and the second rotating door are in the first position, the airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the left space of the first air guide 37 and the right space of the second air guide 38 respectively. At this time, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is in a dual-flow air outlet mode, which can realize the functions of wind avoiding people and preventing direct blowing. It can be understood that in the dual-flow air outlet mode, two encircling airflows can be formed to form the effect of encircling the indoor space. While cooling the air in the room, it can also quickly cool the walls, solving the furnace heat effect in hot summer, thus helping to maintain the living room's long-lasting cool effect.

[0157] Furthermore, when both the first rotating door and the second rotating door are in the first position, and parts of the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 slide into the corresponding receiving cavity 39, the airflow from the air outlet 11 can flow out through the second air outlet channel 60 between the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38, which can realize the single-flow air outlet mode of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. The air conditioner indoor unit 100 concentrates the airflow to the front, which is conducive to quickly reducing the temperature of the indoor environment.

[0158] Furthermore, the first rotating door is in the first position, the second rotating door is in the second position, and part of the first air guide 37 extends into the storage cavity 39 located on the left side. The first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are in a combined state, which can realize the right limit air supply of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. Thus, the air supply effect to the right side space of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be improved, which is conducive to further enriching the air outlet form of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0159] Furthermore, the first rotating door is in the second position, the second rotating door is in the first position, the first air guide 37 and the second air guide 38 are in a combined state, and part of the second air guide 38 extends into the storage cavity 39 located on the left side, which can realize the left limit air supply of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. Thus, the air supply effect to the left side space of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be improved, which is conducive to further enriching the air outlet form of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0160] In other examples, the first and second opening / closing doors 801 and 802 described above may be omitted, allowing the indoor unit 100 to include two vertically extending storage cavities 39. The indoor unit 100 also includes a panel that covers the outside of each storage cavity 39. The two storage cavities 39 are respectively located on both sides of the air guide assembly 20, and the moving drive device 40 can drive each air guide 30 to slide into the corresponding storage cavity 39. It is understood that by allowing the moving drive device 40 to drive each air guide 30 to slide into the corresponding storage cavity 39, it is beneficial to avoid designing two large sliding opening / closing doors 80, thus reducing production costs.

[0161] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner further includes a diffuser plate, which is rotatably disposed on the housing 10 and can selectively close the air outlet channels (first air outlet channel 50 and second air outlet channel 60). The diffuser plate is provided with a diffuser area directly opposite the air outlet channel, and the airflow can pass through the diffuser plate at the diffuser area. The diffuser area is provided with a diffuser structure for diffuser to reduce the air outlet pressure of the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner and achieve windless air outlet.

[0162] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air diffuser structure can be configured to form multiple micropores on the air diffuser plate, and the airflow from the air outlet duct flows out after passing through the multiple micropores to reduce the air pressure of the air outlet duct and achieve windless airflow.

[0163] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of air-diffusing holes are provided on the air-diffusing plate, and the air-diffusing structure is constructed as blades provided at the air-diffusing holes. The blades can rotate when the airflow passes through to reduce the wind pressure from the air outlet duct, thereby achieving windless airflow.

[0164] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air diffuser and the air guide 30 are constructed with the same structure, and the air guide 30 is provided with an air diffuser area to achieve windless airflow.

[0165] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air diffuser and the switch door 80 are constructed with the same structure, and the switch door 80 is provided with an air diffuser area to achieve windless airflow.

[0166] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air guide 30 is movably disposed at the air outlet 11 to selectively open or close the air outlet 11. In this embodiment, the opening and closing of the air outlet 11 is achieved by the forward and backward movement of the air guide 30. When the air guide 30 closes the air outlet 11, the air guide 30 is in a state of engaging with the outer edge of the air outlet 11, which can cause the outer edge of the air guide 30 to abut, intersect, or be adjacent to the outer edge of the air outlet 11, so as to close or partially close the air outlet 11.

[0167] After the air guide 30 moves forward or backward, a gap is formed between the outer edge of the air guide 30 and the air outlet 11 to open the air outlet 11 so that the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner can discharge air.

[0168] According to the present invention, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 opens and closes the air outlet 11 by controlling the back-and-forth movement of the air guide 30. The movement trajectory of the air guide 30 is simple, making the opening and closing control of the air outlet 11 more convenient. It does not require a complex transmission structure, reduces the number of parts of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, lowers the cost of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, and improves the stability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0169] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a display panel is provided on the upper side of the air outlet 11, which can be used to display the parameters of the indoor air conditioning unit 100. By placing the display panel on the upper side of the air outlet 11, users can more intuitively observe the detailed parameters of the indoor air conditioning unit 100.

[0170] According to some embodiments of the present invention, an air conditioner indoor unit 100 is provided with a human body detection device. The human body detection device can be used to detect active human bodies in front of the air outlet 11. When the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is turned on, the human body detection device is adapted to control the position of the air guide 30 so that the air outlet 11 avoids the human body, avoids direct cold air blowing, and improves the user's comfort.

[0171] In summary, according to the present invention, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 adjusts the air outlet 11 through multiple air guiding components 20. On the one hand, it divides the air volume of the air outlet 11, thereby increasing the air outlet direction and air outlet angle, thus realizing multiple air outlet modes and improving user comfort. On the other hand, it blocks and guides the air volume of the air outlet 11 directly facing the user's activity area, thereby adjusting the flow direction of cold air and hot air, thereby improving the cooling and heating effect.
