Detailed Implementation

[0030] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown 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 are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0031] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 Describes a face mask assembly 100 according to an embodiment of this application.

[0032] The mask assembly 100 according to this application can be applied to an indoor unit of an air conditioner. The mask assembly 100 may include: a front mask 110, a lower mask 120 and an external air guide plate 130.

[0033] The faceplate assembly 100 generally serves as a decorative element, used to conceal the internal components of the air conditioner indoor unit, improving the overall appearance of the indoor unit and preventing the components from being directly exposed. The front faceplate 110 can be located directly in front of the frame of the air conditioner indoor unit, and the lower faceplate 120 can be located on the lower side of the indoor unit. Specifically, the front side of the lower faceplate 120 can be constructed as an arc-shaped plate to match the shape of the frame. An air outlet 101 can be provided on the arc-shaped plate. The lower faceplate 120 is formed at the lower edge of the front faceplate 110, and the extension direction of the lower faceplate 120 can be downward and backward, wherein the portion extending downward and backward simultaneously is the aforementioned arc-shaped plate.

[0034] The outer air guide plate 130 may be mounted on at least one of the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120 and be rotatable relative to the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120. For example, the outer air guide plate 130 may be rotatably disposed on the front cover 110, or the outer air guide plate 130 may be disposed on the lower cover 120 and be rotatable relative to the lower cover 120, or the outer air guide plate 130 may be simultaneously disposed on the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120 and be rotatable relative to both the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120.

[0035] Since the outer air guide plate 130 can be installed on the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120 and is rotatable relative to the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120, the outer air guide plate 130 can open or close the air outlet 101, thereby achieving the closing or opening of the air outlet 101; in addition, during the rotation of the outer air guide plate 130, the outer air guide plate 130 can adjust the air outlet angle and air volume of the air outlet 101.

[0036] In a specific embodiment of this application, the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 is flush with the left end of the front cover 110, and the right end of the outer air guide plate 130 is flush with the right end of the front cover 110. That is, the dimensions of the outer air guide plate 130 in the left-right direction are the same as those of the front cover 110 in the left-right direction, and the left edge of the outer air guide plate 130 does not protrude or recess relative to the left edge of the front cover 110, and the right edge of the outer air guide plate 130 does not protrude or recess relative to the right edge of the front cover 110.

[0037] Therefore, the overall integrity of the mask assembly 100 is stronger, and the visual appeal is better. When viewing the indoor unit of the air conditioner from the front, there are fewer boundaries between the components, resulting in a simpler overall appearance. Specifically, in the prior art, the length dimension of the outer air guide plate in the left-right direction is smaller than that of the front cover in the left-right direction. Therefore, the outer air guide plate not only has boundaries with the front cover and the lower cover at the top and bottom respectively, but also has boundaries with the front cover or the lower cover on the left and right sides.

[0038] In this application, there is no boundary between the left side of the external air guide plate 130 and the left side of the front cover 110 or the left side of the lower cover 120, and there is no boundary between the right side of the external air guide plate 130 and the right side of the front cover 110 or the right side of the lower cover 120. Therefore, when viewing the indoor unit of the air conditioner from the front, the overall appearance of the indoor unit of the air conditioner is better and the consistency is better.

[0039] According to the embodiments of this application, the mask assembly 100 is made to have a stronger overall integrity and better visual appeal by aligning the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 with the left end of the front cover 110 and the right end of the outer air guide plate 130 with the right end of the front cover 110. When the air conditioner indoor unit is viewed from the front, there are fewer boundaries between the components, the integration is stronger, and the overall design is simpler.

[0040] It should be noted that the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120 in this embodiment can be constructed as a single molded part, thereby reducing the production difficulty of the mask assembly 100 and improving the production efficiency of the mask assembly 100. In addition, the single-molded front cover 110 and lower cover 120 have a stronger overall integrity, which further enhances the appearance of the product.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, a support is also provided on the rear side of the lower cover 120. The support includes a first support 141 and a second support 142. The first support 141 and the second support 142 are not adjacent, but are spaced apart in the left-right direction. The left and right ends of the outer air guide plate 130 are connected to the first support 141 and the second support 142, respectively. Specifically, the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 is rotatable relative to the first support 141, and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 is rotatable relative to the second support 142. Thus, the left and right ends of the outer air guide plate 130 are respectively mounted on the first support 141 and the second support 142, and the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 is rotatable relative to the first support 141, and the right end of the outer air guide plate 130 is rotatable relative to the second support 142.

[0042] Furthermore, a driving component is also needed to drive the outer air guide plate 130 to rotate, so that the outer air guide plate 130 can open or close the air outlet 101 and adjust the air volume and air outlet angle of the air outlet 101.

[0043] The driving components may include a first motor 151 and a second motor 152. The motor shaft of the first motor 151 may be connected to the left end of the outer air guide plate 130, and the motor shaft of the second motor 152 may be connected to the right end of the outer air guide plate 130.

[0044] Because the outer air guide plate 130 is large in size and heavy in weight, in order to make the outer air guide plate 130 rotate smoothly, this application designs dual motors to drive the outer air guide plate 130 to rotate. By setting drive motors at both the left and right ends of the outer air guide plate 130, the outer air guide plate 130 can rotate faster and more easily.

[0045] Furthermore, the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 is located below the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130, and the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 is spaced apart from the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 by a certain distance. As a result, when the outer air guide plate 130 is closed, the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 is in close contact with the lower edge of the air outlet 101 without any gaps, which greatly improves the appearance of the mask assembly 100.

[0046] It should be noted that the distance between the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 needs to ensure that the gap between the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower cover 120 is infinitely close to zero when closed. The distance between the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 is related to, but is not limited to, the shape of the outer air guide plate 130. The distance between the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 can be adjusted as needed. Here, no limitation is made on the distance between the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130.

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, the face mask assembly 100 further includes an inner air guide plate 160, which may be disposed behind the outer air guide plate 130. The inner air guide plate 160 is disposed on the lower cover 120 and / or the front cover 110 and is rotatable relative to the lower cover 120 and / or the front cover 110. For example, the inner air guide plate 160 is disposed on the front cover 110 and is rotatable relative to the inner air guide plate 160, or the inner air guide plate 160 is disposed on the lower cover 120 and is rotatable relative to the inner air guide plate 160, or the inner air guide plate 160 is disposed on both the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120 and is rotatable relative to both the front cover 110 and the lower cover 120.

[0048] The inner air guide plate 160 can open or close part or all of the air outlet 101. That is, the inner air guide plate 160 can completely close or open the air outlet 101, or it can close or open part of the air outlet 101. In the latter case, when the inner air guide plate 160 is in the closed state, the air outlet 101 will not be completely blocked by the inner air guide plate 160, and part of the air that has undergone heat exchange through the indoor heat exchanger can flow outward without passing through the inner air guide plate 160.

[0049] Furthermore, a third and a fourth bracket can be provided on the rear side of the lower cover 120. The third and fourth brackets are not adjacent but are spaced apart horizontally and upwards. The left end of the inner air guide plate 160 can be connected to the third bracket, and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 can be connected to the fourth bracket. Specifically, the left end of the inner air guide plate 160 is rotatable relative to the third bracket, and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 is rotatable relative to the fourth bracket.

[0050] In some embodiments of this application, the first bracket 141 may be the same bracket as the third bracket, and the second bracket 142 may be the same bracket as the fourth bracket. That is, the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 and the left end of the inner air guide plate 160 are rotatably mounted on the same bracket, and the right end of the outer air guide plate 130 and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 are also rotatably mounted on another identical bracket.

[0051] Furthermore, the inner air guide plate 160 requires a driving component to provide power for its rotation. This driving component includes a third motor 153, which can be mounted on a third or fourth bracket. The motor shaft of the third motor 153 can be connected to the inner air guide plate 160. In other words, the inner air guide plate 160 is driven by a single motor. It is understood that the size and weight of the inner air guide plate 160 are smaller than those of the outer air guide plate 130, therefore a single motor is sufficient to drive the inner air guide plate 160 to rotate.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the length of the lower cover 120 in the left-right direction is smaller than that of the front cover 110 in the left-right direction. The left end of the lower cover 120 is closer to the right side than the left end of the front cover 110, and the right end of the lower cover 120 is closer to the left side than the right end of the front cover 110. Therefore, the left end of the lower cover 120 and the lower edge of the front cover 110 form a first notch, and the right end of the lower cover 120 and the lower edge of the front cover 110 form a second notch.

[0053] The first notch can accommodate the rightward extension of the left end cover 211 and the left end of the lower panel 222, while the second notch can accommodate the leftward extension of the right end cover 212 and the right end of the lower panel 222. This facilitates the support of the left end cover 211 and the right end cover 212 for the cover assembly 100 and the lower panel 222, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0054] According to some embodiments of this application, the outer air guide plate 130 and / or the inner air guide plate 160 are provided with micropores. That is, micropores can be provided only on the outer air guide plate 130 or the inner air guide plate 160, or micropores can be provided on both the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160. Thus, even if the outer air guide plate 130 and / or the inner air guide plate 160 are in a closed state, the air that has undergone heat exchange with the indoor heat exchanger can still pass through the outer air guide plate 130 and / or the inner air guide plate 160.

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, both the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 are provided with micro-holes. The outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 can be in the open state at the same time. At this time, when the impeller speed is constant, the wind speed discharged from the air outlet 101 is the maximum, and the wind feeling is obvious. When one of the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 is in the closed state, when the impeller speed is constant, the wind discharged from the air outlet 101 can pass through the micro-holes on the outer air guide plate 130 or the inner air guide plate 160, thereby achieving a windless effect. When both the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 are in the closed state, when the impeller speed is constant, the windless effect of the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 is the best, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0056] The mask assembly 100 of the present application embodiment is described in detail below.

[0057] The mask assembly 100 may include a front mask 110, a lower mask 120, and an external air guide plate 130. The front mask 110 may be located directly in front of the frame of the indoor air conditioning unit, and the lower mask 120 may be located on the lower side of the indoor air conditioning unit. Specifically, the front side of the lower mask 120 may be constructed as an arc-shaped plate to match the shape of the frame, and an air outlet 101 may be provided on the arc-shaped plate. The lower mask 120 is located at the lower edge of the front mask 110 and may extend downward and backward.

[0058] The outer air guide plate 130 is disposed on the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120 and is rotatable relative to the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120. The left end of the outer air guide plate 130 is flush with the left end of the front cover 110, and the right end of the outer air guide plate 130 is flush with the right end of the front cover 110.

[0059] The front cover 110 and the lower cover 120 can be constructed as a single molded part. The rear side of the lower cover 120 is also provided with a bracket, which may include a first bracket 141 and a second bracket 142. The first bracket 141 and the second bracket 142 are not adjacent, but are spaced apart by a distance in the left and right directions. The left and right ends of the outer air guide plate 130 are connected to the first bracket 141 and the second bracket 142 respectively. Specifically, the left end of the outer air guide plate 130 is rotatable relative to the first bracket 141, and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 is rotatable relative to the second bracket 142.

[0060] The rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 is located below the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130, and the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 is spaced apart from the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 by a certain distance. The distance between the rotation axis of the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower edge of the outer air guide plate 130 needs to ensure that the gap between the outer air guide plate 130 and the lower cover 120 is infinitely close to zero when closed.

[0061] The face mask assembly 100 may further include an inner air guide plate 160, which may be disposed behind the outer air guide plate 130. The inner air guide plate 160 is disposed on the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120 and is rotatable relative to the front cover 110 and / or the lower cover 120. The inner air guide plate 160 can open or close part or all of the air outlet 101. That is, the inner air guide plate 160 can completely close or open the air outlet 101, or it can close or open part of the air outlet 101.

[0062] A third and a fourth bracket can be provided on the rear side of the lower cover 120. The third and fourth brackets are not adjacent, but are spaced apart to the left and right. The left end of the inner air guide plate 160 can be connected to the third bracket, and the right end of the inner air guide plate 160 can be connected to the fourth bracket. The first bracket 141 can be the same bracket as the third bracket, and the second bracket 142 can be the same bracket as the fourth bracket.

[0063] The first support 141 and the third support can be integrally molded, and the second support 142 and the fourth support can be integrally molded. Specifically, the face mask 120 is integrally molded with the first support 141 and the second support 142. This facilitates the molding of the face mask assembly 100 and improves the production efficiency of the face mask assembly 100.

[0064] The lower cover 120 is shorter in length from left to right than the front cover 110. The left end of the lower cover 120 is closer to the right side than the left end of the front cover 110, and the right end of the lower cover 120 is closer to the left side than the right end of the front cover 110. Therefore, the left end of the lower cover 120 forms a first notch with the lower edge of the front cover 110, and the right end of the lower cover 120 forms a second notch with the lower edge of the front cover 110. Micropores are provided on the outer air guide plate 130 and / or the inner air guide plate 160.

[0065] The air conditioner indoor unit 200 in the embodiments of this application is briefly described below.

[0066] An air conditioner indoor unit 200 according to an embodiment of this application may include a front frame and a mask assembly 100, wherein the mask assembly 100 is disposed on the front frame and is rotatable relative to the front frame. Because the air conditioner indoor unit 200 according to an embodiment of this application is provided with the aforementioned mask assembly 100, the overall appearance of the air conditioner indoor unit is excellent and its appearance is simple; at the same time, the air conditioner indoor unit can also have a windless mode, greatly improving the user experience.

[0067] Furthermore, the faceplate includes a left end cover 211 and a right end cover 212, with the left end cover 211 disposed to the left of the right end cover 212 and the right end cover 212 disposed to the right of the left end cover 211, and the two being spaced apart in the left-right direction.

[0068] Specifically, the faceplate includes: a left end cover 211, a right end cover 212, a front panel 221, and a lower panel 222. The left end cover 211 and the right end cover 212 are spaced apart in the left and right directions. The front panel 221 and the lower panel 222 are both located between the left end cover 211 and the right end cover 212. The lower panel 222 is located below the front panel 221. A fan wheel 232 is provided between the lower panel 222 and the lower chassis 231. Of course, the fan wheel can be fixed on the lower chassis.

[0069] The lower panel 222 is mounted on the front panel 221 and is detachable relative to the lower panel 222. When the impeller 232 needs to be removed for cleaning, the mask assembly 100 can be rotated open first, and then the latch between the lower panel 222 and the front panel 221 can be opened to remove the lower panel 222. After that, the latch between the lower chassis 231 and the front panel 221 can be opened to remove the lower chassis 231 and the impeller 232 on the lower chassis 231 together.

[0070] Specifically, the face mask assembly 100 is rotatably mounted on the face frame. The face mask assembly 100 can have an open state and a closed state. When the face mask assembly 100 is in the closed state, the face mask 100 covers the face frame and the components inside the face frame. When the face mask assembly 100 is in the open state, the face mask assembly 100 exposes the components inside the face frame, making it convenient to inspect and repair the components inside the face frame.

[0071] A first locking mechanism is provided between the lower panel 222 and the front panel 221. The lower panel 222 can be fixed to the front panel 221 by the first locking mechanism. Of course, the lower panel 222 can be removed from the front panel 221 after the first locking mechanism is opened. A second locking mechanism is provided between the lower chassis 231 and the front panel 221. The lower chassis 231 and the impeller 232 on the lower chassis 231 can be fixed to the front panel 221 by the second locking mechanism. Of course, the lower chassis 231 and the impeller 232 on the lower chassis 231 can be removed from the front panel 221 after the second locking mechanism is opened.

[0072] Specifically, both the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 of this application are provided with micro-holes. The outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 can be in the open state at the same time. At this time, with a constant impeller speed, the wind speed discharged from the air outlet 101 is the maximum, and the wind feeling is obvious. When one of the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 is in the closed state, with a constant impeller speed, the air discharged from the air outlet 101 can pass through the micro-holes on the outer air guide plate 130 or the inner air guide plate 160, thereby achieving a windless effect. When both the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 are in the closed state, with a constant impeller speed, the windless effect of the outer air guide plate 130 and the inner air guide plate 160 is the best, which greatly improves the user experience.
