[0034] This invention proposes an air conditioner.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the air conditioner of the present invention, the air conditioner includes an indoor unit 100, a humidification mechanism (not shown), a water intake device 200, and a water delivery assembly 300. The humidification mechanism is disposed in the indoor unit 100. The water intake device 200 is used to process the air to generate condensate. One end of the water delivery assembly 300 is connected to the water intake device 200, and the other end is connected to the humidification mechanism. The water delivery assembly 300 is used to deliver the condensate generated by the water intake device 200 to the humidification mechanism.

[0036] It is understood that the humidification mechanism can be located inside or outside the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner; no specific limitation is made here. The humidification mechanism is used to evaporate water, and the evaporated water humidifies the air. The humidification mechanism has a steam outlet, which can be located at the exhaust vent of the indoor unit 100, so that the humidity of the air blown out from the exhaust vent of the indoor unit 100 can be increased, thereby enabling the indoor unit 100 to humidify the indoor air. The humidification mechanism includes a humidifier, which can be a steam generator. The steam generator can be one or more of a wet film assembly, an ultrasonic assembly, or a heating assembly; no specific limitation is made here. The humidification mechanism may also include a water tank for storing condensate supplied by the water delivery assembly 300.

[0037] Furthermore, the water-collecting device 200 can be installed indoors, or it can be installed outdoors. When installed indoors, the water-collecting device 200 can process indoor air, for example, but not limited to: processing the air blown out by the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner; or, processing the circulating air indoors. When installed outdoors, the water-collecting device 200 can process outdoor air, for example, but not limited to: processing the air blown out by the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; or, processing the outside air. In this case, the outside air can be natural wind or the airflow generated by the water-collecting device 200 itself. The method of air formation processed by the water-collecting device 200 is not limited, as long as the water-collecting device 200 can cool the air to form condensate. That is, this solution obtains moisture from the air without requiring the user to manually add water, thus helping to save water resources.

[0038] Furthermore, the water supply assembly 300 is used to transport condensate. The installation position of the water supply assembly 300 can be set according to the installation position of the water intake device 200. For example, when the water intake device 200 is installed indoors, the water supply assembly 300 is also installed indoors; when the water intake device 200 is installed outdoors, the water supply assembly 300 can connect the indoor air conditioning unit 100 to the outdoor water intake device 200 through the water pipe 320. Therefore, the position of the water supply assembly 300 is not limited, and its installation position can be adapted and adjusted to match the position of the water intake device 200. The structure of the water supply assembly 300 is not limited. For example, the water supply assembly 300 may include a water pump 310 and a water pipe 320. The water pump 310 can be located at one end of the water intake device 200 or at one end of the humidification mechanism, as long as the water pump 310 can pump the condensate generated by the water intake device 200 to the humidification mechanism.

[0039] The air conditioner of the present invention includes an indoor unit 100, a humidification mechanism, a water intake device 200, and a water delivery assembly 300. The water intake device 200 is used to process the air to produce condensate. One end of the water delivery assembly 300 is connected to the water intake device 200, and the other end is connected to the humidification mechanism. The water delivery assembly 300 is used to deliver the condensate produced by the water intake device 200 to the humidification mechanism. This arrangement allows the condensate produced by the water intake device 200 to be automatically delivered to the humidification mechanism, eliminating the need for the user to manually supply water to the humidification mechanism. This solves the problem of cumbersome water supply caused by manual water supply in the indoor unit 100, thereby improving the applicability of the air conditioner.

[0040] In one embodiment, the air conditioner further includes an outdoor unit (not shown), which includes a casing with an air outlet side. A water-collecting device 200 is located on the air outlet side and is used to process the air blown out from the air outlet side. It is understood that the air outlet side of the casing has an exhaust vent, and the air blown out from this vent is the air discharged after heat exchange by the outdoor unit. This air is directly blown into the outside air, and this portion of the discharged air is not fully utilized. However, this application places the water-collecting device 200 on the air outlet side of the outdoor unit, allowing the air discharged from the air outlet side to flow towards the water-collecting device 200. This enables the water-collecting device 200 to fully utilize the remaining energy of the air discharged from the outdoor unit, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the air conditioner and contributing to energy conservation.

[0041] Please see Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the water-drawing device 200 includes a housing 210 and a water-drawing assembly 220 disposed within the housing 210. The housing 210 has an air inlet 211, an air outlet 212, and an air duct 213 connecting the air inlet 211 and the air outlet 212. The air inlet 211 is disposed facing the air outlet side, and the water-drawing assembly 220 is used to process the air in the air duct 213.

[0042] Understandably, the air inlet 211 of the water-collecting device 200 is positioned facing the air outlet side of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. This means that the air blown out from the outdoor unit can flow towards the air inlet 211 of the water-collecting device 200, resulting in a larger airflow at the air inlet 211, which is beneficial for increasing airflow volume. Furthermore, the air blown out from the outdoor unit can enter through the air inlet 211 of the outer casing 210, flow through the air duct 213, and then be discharged again through the air outlet 212 of the outer casing 210. During this process, the water-collecting component 220 cools the flowing air to form condensate. The flowing air helps to increase the amount and speed of condensate collection. Especially in summer, the air discharged from the outdoor unit is hot air; after being cooled by the water-collecting component 220, the hot air can quickly form a large amount of condensate. It can be seen that by setting up the water-drawing device 200, the energy utilization rate of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner can be improved and water resources can be saved. At the same time, the water-drawing device 200, together with the water supply component 300, can automatically transport the generated condensate to the humidification mechanism, which solves the problem of cumbersome water supply caused by the manual water supply of the indoor unit of the air conditioner 100, thereby improving the applicability of the air conditioner.

[0043] In one embodiment, the water-collecting assembly 220 includes a cooling element 221 disposed within the air duct 213. The cooling element 221 is used to cool the air within the air duct 213. It is understood that there can be multiple cooling elements 221, which can be sequentially and spaced apart within the air duct 213, allowing air to pass through them sequentially and form condensate. The specific arrangement of the multiple cooling elements 221 is not limited. This solution uses multiple cooling elements 221, which helps to increase the speed at which the cooling elements 221 cool the air, thereby quickly obtaining condensate and increasing the rate of condensate formation.

[0044] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the air duct 213 includes a heat exchange section 201, a water collection section 202, and an air outlet section 203 connected in sequence. The heat exchange section 201 is connected to the air inlet 211, and the air outlet section 203 is connected to the air outlet 212. The heat exchange section 201 is provided with the cooling chip 221, and the water collection section 202 is located below the cooling chip 221 in the heat exchange section 201. The water collection section 202 is used to collect condensate.

[0045] Specifically, air enters the air duct 213 through the air inlet 211, then passes through the heat exchange section 201, the water collection section 202, and the air outlet section 203 before being discharged outwards from the air outlet 212. During this process, the cooling fins 221 in the heat exchange section 201 cool the air to form condensate. The water collection section 202 is located below the cooling fins 221 in the heat exchange section 201, allowing the condensate to flow from a higher to a lower position. That is, the condensate can flow from the position of the cooling fins 221 to the water collection section 202, which is lower than the cooling fins 221, so that the water collection section 202 can collect the condensate. This design, by placing the water collection section 202 below the cooling fins 221 in the heat exchange section 201, facilitates the collection of condensate, avoids the backflow of condensate to the air outlet 212, and improves the reliability of the water collection device 200.

[0046] Considering that when air flows from the heat exchange section 201 to the outlet section 203, the air is not completely cooled and still contains moisture, the heat exchange section 201 does not adequately absorb the moisture. To avoid this, optionally, the outlet section 203 is equipped with the cooling fins 221, and the water collection section 202 is located below the cooling fins 221 within the outlet section 203. This arrangement ensures that both the outlet section 203 and the heat exchange section 201 are positioned above the water collection section 202. When air flows from the heat exchange section 201 to the outlet section 203, the cooling fins 221 in the outlet section 203 can further cool the air, ensuring complete cooling. The moisture in the air will condense and flow downwards from the outlet section 203 to the water collection section 202. In this embodiment, the heat exchange section 201, water collection section 202, and air outlet section 203 are generally arranged in a U-shape, with the water collection section 202 located at the lowest point of the U-shape. This allows the condensate formed after passing through the cooling plate 221 to flow towards the lowest point, thus facilitating condensate collection. Therefore, by placing the cooling plate 221 within the air outlet section 203 and positioning the water collection section 202 below the cooling plate 221 within the air outlet section 203, sufficient moisture in the air can be captured to form condensate, thereby improving the efficiency of condensate formation.

[0047] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the water intake assembly 220 further includes a heating element 222, which is disposed in the heat exchange section 201 and located between the cooling chip 221 and the air inlet 211 in the heat exchange section 201. The heating element 222 is used to heat the air in the heat exchange section 201.

[0048] It is understood that the heating element 222 can be a heating wire or a heating plate, and the specific method is not limited here. There can be multiple heating elements 222, arranged sequentially and at intervals within the heat exchange section 201, so that air can pass through multiple heating elements 222 in sequence, thereby ensuring that the air is sufficiently heated. The specific arrangement of the heating elements 222 is not limited. The heating element 222 is located between the cooling plate 221 and the air inlet 211 within the heat exchange section 201. That is, the air entering from the air inlet 211 is first heated by the heating element 222, and then cooled by the cooling plate 221. This process of heating and cooling the air first helps to increase the rate of condensation formation, thus improving the efficiency of condensate collection.

[0049] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the heat exchange section 201 includes a heating section 201a and a cooling section 201b that are interconnected. The heating section 201a is connected to the air inlet 211, and the cooling section 201b is connected to the water collection section 202. The heating element 222 is provided in the heating section 201a, and the cooling chip 221 is provided in the cooling section 201b. The cooling chip 221 in the cooling section 201b is located below the connection between the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a.

[0050] Specifically, the cooling element 221 in the cooling section 201b and the heating element 222 in the heating section 201a are both located below the connection between the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a. In this embodiment, the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a are arranged in an inverted U-shape, with the connection between them located at the highest point of the inverted U-shape. The cooling element 221 and the heating element 222 are respectively located on both sides below the highest point of the inverted U-shape. When air enters the heating section 201a from the air inlet 211, the air is heated by the heating element 222 to form hot air, which flows upward. The heating section 201a of this application is inclined upward, which facilitates the flow of hot air. Then, the hot air enters the cooling section 201b, where it is cooled by the cooling element 221 to form cold air, which flows downward. The cooling section 201b of this application is inclined downward, which facilitates the flow of cold air. Therefore, the arrangement of the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a in this application is conducive to improving the smoothness of air flow, thereby increasing the speed of air flow, which in turn enables the air to be processed quickly to form condensate, thus improving the efficiency of the water collection device 200 in forming condensate.

[0051] In one embodiment, the connection between the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a is located above the air inlet 211. This arrangement causes the heating section 201a to be angled upwards from the air inlet 211 to the connection between the cooling section 201b and the heating section 201a. Air enters from the air inlet 211 and flows along the upwardly angled heating section 201a. The heating element 222 heats the air, which tends to flow upwards. The air flow direction within the heating section 201a is the same as the flow direction of the hot air, making the flow of hot air smoother and thus improving the airflow speed.

[0052] In one embodiment, the water-drawing device 200 further includes a water tank 230 disposed within the housing 210. The water tank 230 is used to collect condensate generated by the water-drawing assembly 220, and one end of the water-transmitting assembly 300 is connected to the water tank 230. It can be understood that, in one embodiment, the water tank 230 is integrally formed on the bottom of the housing 210 to collect condensate generated by the water-drawing assembly 220; in another embodiment, the water tank 230 has an opening facing outwards, and the water-drawing assembly 220 is disposed above the opening of the water tank 230, so that the condensate generated by the water-drawing assembly 220 can be collected together, and the water-transmitting assembly 300 can transport the condensate collected in the water tank 230 to the humidification mechanism. Of course, in other embodiments, the water tank 230 can also be disposed outside the housing 210 and below the housing 210, as long as the water tank 230 can collect the condensate generated by the water-drawing assembly 220.

[0053] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the bottom wall of the water collection section 202 is provided with a water outlet 204 communicating with the water tank 230. It is understood that there can be multiple water outlets 204, arranged sequentially and at intervals on the bottom wall of the water collection section 202. The water outlets 204 can be circular, square, or other shapes as needed, and are not specifically limited here. The water outlets 204 are located on the bottom wall of the water collection section 202, allowing the condensate formed by the cooling plate 221 to quickly flow from the water outlets 204 into the water tank 230. The condensate will not accumulate in the water collection section 202, preventing it from affecting the smooth flow of air and thus ensuring the smooth flow of air within the air duct 213.

[0054] In one embodiment, the water-collecting assembly 220 further includes a filter element 223, which is disposed on the bottom wall of the water collection section 202 and corresponding to the water outlet 204. The filter element 223 is used to filter condensate. It is understood that the filter element 223 is detachably installed on the bottom wall of the water collection section 202, completely covering the water outlet 204 on the water collection section 202. The filter element 223 can filter particulate impurities or foreign objects in the condensate to prevent impurities or foreign objects from entering the water tank 230 and clogging the water outlet of the water tank 230. The filter element 223 can be non-woven fabric or sponge, and it purifies the condensate. Of course, the filter element 223 can also be a HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filter to improve its filtration effect.

[0055] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the water-drawing device 200 further includes a water level detector 240, which is disposed within the water tank 230 and is used to detect the water level in the water tank 230. The type of water level detector 240 is not limited, as long as it can detect changes in the water level within the water tank 230. The water-drawing device 200 also includes a control board electrically connected to the water-drawing device 200. When the water level detector 240 detects that the water level in the water tank 230 has not reached a preset water level, the control board can control the water-drawing device 200 to operate to collect the generated condensate; when the water level detector 240 detects that the water level in the water tank 230 has reached the preset water level, the control board controls the water-drawing device 200 to stop operating. Alternatively, in the above process, the control board can also be electrically connected to the water supply assembly 300 to control the water supply assembly 300 to cooperate with the water-drawing device 200 to deliver condensate to the humidification mechanism. The water level detector 240 can be an infrared detector or a floating detection device; the specific type is not limited here.

[0056] In one embodiment, the water level detector 240 includes a guide rod 241, a float 242, and a micro switch 243. The guide rod 241 is disposed within the water tank 230. The float 242 is sleeved on the guide rod 241 and can float vertically. The micro switch 243 is disposed at the top of the guide rod 241 and is electrically connected to the control board of the water-drawing device 200. It is understood that the guide rod 241 can be vertically installed within the water tank 230 along its height direction. The float 242, with a density less than that of water, can float vertically on the guide rod 241 as the water level rises and falls. The top of the guide rod 241 is equipped with a micro switch 243. When the water level in the water tank 230 rises to the first preset position, the float ball 242 floats upward and touches the micro switch 243, causing the micro switch 243 to close. The micro switch 243 sends a closing signal to the control board, and the control board controls the water intake assembly 220 to stop working.

[0057] Furthermore, the control board controls the water supply assembly 300 to deliver water from the water tank 230 to the humidification mechanism, causing the water level in the water tank 230 to drop. When the water level in the water tank 230 drops to the second preset position, the float 242 floats downward and disengages from the micro switch 243. At this time, the micro switch 243 will reopen and send an open signal back to the control board, which then controls the water intake assembly 220 to start working. By repeating the above steps, the function of controlling the water level in the water tank 230 is achieved. Moreover, the floating detection device in this solution has a simple structure and is easy to implement, which helps to simplify the structure of the water intake device 200.

[0058] In one embodiment, the water delivery assembly 300 includes a water pump 310 and a water pipe 320. The water pump 310 is disposed in the housing 210. One end of the water pipe 320 is connected to the water pump 310, and the other end is connected to the water tank of the humidification mechanism. The water pump 310 is used to deliver water from the water tank 230 to the water tank of the humidification mechanism. It is understood that the water pump 310 can be disposed inside the housing 210, or it can be disposed outside the housing 210; no specific limitation is made here. The water delivery assembly 300 can be electrically connected to the control board of the water intake device 200 to cooperate with the water level detector 240 to deliver condensate from the water tank 230 to the water tank of the humidification mechanism. During this process, not only the water tank of the humidification mechanism can store condensate, but the water tank 230 of the water intake device 200 can also store condensate. Specifically, the condensate consumption rate of the humidification mechanism can be controlled according to the condensate consumption rate. This solution, by setting up a water pump 310 and a water pipe 320, ensures that the condensate in the water tank 230 can be transported to the water tank of the humidification unit, thereby realizing the function of automatic water supply for the humidification unit and improving the applicability of the air conditioner.

[0059] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
