Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air conditioning equipment, and particularly relates to an air outlet system applied to an air conditioner and the air conditioner. BACKGROUND
[0002] Direct blowing is an uncomfortable experience that people often encounter when the existing air conditioner is working. In the cooling mode, the local skin of a user will produce an overcooling feeling under the blowing of high-speed cold air, and the user will feel uncomfortable. In the heating mode, the nasal mucosa, oral mucosa and skin of the user will produce a rapid wind-drying feeling under the blowing of high-speed warm air, and the user will feel uncomfortable. In order to reduce the direct blowing, the existing air conditioner often adds a buffering and speed-reducing structure to reduce the direct blowing. However, the wind speed is reduced and the indoor temperature cannot be quickly changed. It can be seen that the existing air conditioner cannot simultaneously consider the rapid temperature adjustment and the reduction of the direct blowing, which brings inconvenience to the user. SUMMARY
[0003] In order to solve at least one problem in the prior art, the present application provides an air outlet control device and an air conditioner to solve the problem that the existing air conditioner cannot simultaneously consider the rapid temperature adjustment and the reduction of the direct blowing.
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, in a first aspect, the present application provides an air outlet system applied to an air conditioner, comprising:
[0005] a first air outlet device;
[0006] a second air outlet device, the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device are sequentially arranged from top to bottom, the second air outlet device is provided with a second air force generating port and a driving structure, and the driving structure is arranged to drive the air outlet direction of the second air force generating port to be active;
[0007] wherein when the air outlet direction of the second air force generating port is active to the first air direction position, the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device independently outlet air respectively, and when the air outlet direction of the second air force generating port is active to the second air direction position, the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device converge to outlet air.
[0008] In the use of air conditioner with the air outlet system, when the need for rapid cooling, the first air outlet device in the air supply mode (i.e. not to enable temperature control function), the operation of the second air outlet device in the refrigeration mode, and the driving structure driving the second air outlet device of the second wind force generating port in the first wind direction, then the first air outlet device and the second air outlet device are independent of each other, and the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device are arranged in the machine body from top to bottom, then the cold air flow from the second air outlet device of the second air outlet device blows from the top of the air conditioner, and blows to the direction required by the user, and the cold air flow is slowed down in the process of flowing to the direction required by the user under the buffer effect of air, and the cold air flow is slowed down at the same time. The density of the cold air flow is greater than the density of the indoor air, and then the final speed of the cold air flow is reduced and falls on the head of the user and the part below the head, so that the user can enjoy the comfort brought by the low wind feeling while cooling; at the same time, since the first air outlet device is only in the air supply mode, the first air outlet device will continuously suck the cold air and normal temperature air falling to the area near the bottom of the air conditioner after being slowed down, then mix uniformly to form air flow with temperature higher than the cold air generated by the second air outlet device (reducing the cold feeling, more suitable for human body), and then blow out from the lower position of the air conditioner. In the absence of the increase of direct blowing and cold feeling, the mixing and flowing process of air is accelerated, so as to achieve the effect of rapid cooling; when the need for rapid heating, the operation of the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device are in the heating mode, and the driving structure drives the second air outlet device of the second air outlet device to the second wind direction, then the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device converge, and the air outlet device and the first air outlet device are arranged in the machine body from top to bottom, then the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device converge, and the air outlet device and the first air outlet device are arranged in the machine body from top to bottom. The direction of the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device points to the area below the air conditioner, and the warm air flow from the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device blows from the lower position of the air conditioner, and blows to the direction required by the user. The warm air flow is slowed down in the process of flowing to the direction required by the user under the buffer effect of air, and the density of the warm air flow is less than the density of the indoor air, so that the warm air flow is slowed down at the same time. The density of the warm air flow is less than the density of the indoor air, so that the warm air flow is slowed down at the same time. The final speed of the warm air flow is reduced and floats to the main trunk of the user (the part above the feet and legs), so that the user can enjoy the comfort brought by the low wind feeling while heating.In addition, when the user wants to quickly adjust the temperature of the area below the air conditioner, the user can control the driving structure to drive the second air outlet device to be in the second wind direction position, and then the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device converge air, and the temperature control mode of the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device can be controlled according to the temperature rise or the temperature drop, the air outlet direction of the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device points to the area below the air conditioner, and then the air force of the air outlet of the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device can be concentrated to blow to the area below the air conditioner, so as to achieve the effect of quick temperature adjustment.
[0009] In some embodiments, the first air outlet device comprises a first heat exchanger and an air outlet fan, and the first heat exchanger and the air outlet fan are sequentially arranged along the air outlet direction of the first air outlet device.
[0010] In this way, when the air outlet fan works, the air outlet fan rotates to generate a strong suction force to suck air into the air conditioner, the sucked air is first exchanged heat with the first heat exchanger, and then the air after heat exchange is blown out by the air outlet fan.
[0011] In some embodiments, the second air outlet device further comprises a driving fan and a second heat exchanger, and the second heat exchanger and the driving fan are sequentially arranged along the air outlet direction of the second air outlet device, and the second air outlet is arranged on the driving fan.
[0012] In this way, when the second air outlet device works, the driving fan rotates to generate a strong suction force to suck air into the air conditioner, and finally blows out from the second air outlet after heat exchange of the second heat exchanger.
[0013] In some embodiments, the driving structure comprises a driving motor, a driving gear and a driven gear.
[0014] The driving gear is coaxially arranged on the output shaft of the driving motor, the driven gear is arranged on the driving fan, and the driving gear and the driven gear are engaged and paired.
[0015] The driving motor is used to drive the driving gear to drive the driven gear to rotate the driving fan, so that the second air outlet is movable.
[0016] In this way, when the driving motor works, the driving motor drives the driving gear to rotate, and under the meshing transmission action of the driving gear and the driven gear, the driving gear drives the driven gear to rotate the driving fan, so that the air outlet direction of the second air outlet of the driving fan is movable to the first wind direction position or the second wind direction position, for example, when the driving motor rotates clockwise, the second air outlet rotates counterclockwise, and the air outlet direction of the second air outlet is movable to the second wind direction position; when the driving motor rotates counterclockwise, the second air outlet rotates clockwise, and the air outlet direction of the second air outlet is movable to the second wind direction position, that is, the air outlet direction of the second air outlet is movable between the first wind direction position and the second wind direction position.
[0017] In some embodiments, the driven gear is arranged on the shell of the driving fan, and the driven gear is coaxially arranged with the virtual rotation center axis of the driving fan.
[0018] In this way, since the driven gear is coaxially arranged with the virtual rotation center axis of the driving fan, the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port is also arranged around the virtual rotation center axis, so that when the driving motor works, the driving fan is driven to rotate relative to the body by the driving of the driving gear and the driven gear, and at the same time, the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port also coaxially rotates, and the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port only rotates around the virtual rotation center axis and does not move up and down, so that the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port is more stable and controllable.
[0019] In a second aspect, the application provides an air conditioner, which comprises a body and an air outlet system as described above, wherein the upper portion of the body is provided with a second air outlet, and the lower portion of the body is provided with a first air outlet.
[0020] The air outlet system is arranged on the body, the first air outlet device blows air towards the first air outlet, and when the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port moves to the first air direction position, the second wind generating port blows air towards the second air outlet, and when the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port moves to the second air direction position, the second wind generating port blows air towards the first air outlet.
[0021] In this way, when the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port moves to the first air direction position, the first air outlet device and the second air outlet device independently blow air respectively; and when the air outlet direction of the second wind generating port moves to the second air direction position, the first air outlet device and the second air outlet device blow air together.
[0022] In some embodiments, the body comprises a base, a rear shell and a front shell arranged on the base.
[0023] The rear shell and the front shell jointly enclose an internal mounting cavity, and the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device are arranged in the internal mounting cavity.
[0024] In this way, the rear shell and the front shell jointly enclose the internal mounting cavity, and the second air outlet device and the first air outlet device are arranged in the internal mounting cavity, so that the entire air conditioner is vertically erected on the ground under the support of the base, and has the characteristic of compact structure.
[0025] In some embodiments, the body is further provided with a mounting seat, and the second air outlet device is arranged on the mounting seat.
[0026] In this way, under the support of the mounting seat, the second air outlet device can be stably arranged in the body, and has the characteristic of stable structure.
[0027] In some embodiments, the top of the machine body is further provided with a lifting air outlet assembly and a lifting driving assembly, the lifting air outlet assembly is slidingly arranged on the machine body, and the lifting driving assembly is used to drive the lifting air outlet assembly to extend or retract relative to the machine body, so as to form the second air outlet when the lifting air outlet assembly extends relative to the machine body.
[0028] In this way, when the air conditioner is turned on, the lifting air outlet assembly extends relative to the machine body and forms the second air outlet, so that the second air outlet for the second air outlet device is formed on the machine body.
[0029] In some embodiments, the lifting air outlet assembly comprises a first plate, a second plate and a third plate, and the first plate, the second plate and the third plate enclose to form the second air outlet.
[0030] The machine body is provided with a first sliding groove and a second sliding groove, the first plate is slidingly arranged in the first sliding groove, and the third plate is slidingly arranged in the second sliding groove.
[0031] In this way, when the lifting air outlet assembly extends relative to the machine body, the first plate, the second plate and the third plate all move away from the machine body, so that the frame-shaped second air outlet extends out of the machine body and is connected with the atmosphere; when the lifting air outlet assembly retracts into the machine body, the frame-shaped second air outlet retracts into the machine body and is isolated from the atmosphere, that is, the lifting driving assembly controls the conduction or closing of the second air outlet by driving the lifting air outlet assembly to extend or retract relative to the machine body.

[0043] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present application herein are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0044] The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings.
[0045] Please refer to Figures 1-5The embodiment discloses an air conditioner, which comprises a machine body 1 and an air outlet system arranged on the machine body 1. The air outlet system comprises a first air outlet device 2 and a second air outlet device 3, and the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The second air outlet device 3 is provided with a second air force generating port 311 and a driving structure 33, and the driving structure 33 is arranged to drive the second air force generating port 311 to move. When the air outlet direction of the second air force generating port 311 moves to a first air direction position 312, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 independently blow air respectively. When the air outlet direction of the second air force generating port 311 moves to a second air direction position 313, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 blow air together.
[0046] The second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 have a refrigeration mode and a heating mode.
[0047] When the air conditioner is used, when quick cooling is needed, the first air outlet device 2 is operated in the air supply mode, i.e. the temperature regulation function is not enabled, the second air outlet device 3 is in the cooling mode, and the driving structure 33 drives the second air outlet device 3 to be in the first air direction position 312, then the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 independently blow air, since the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom on the machine body 1, then the cold air current emitted from the second air outlet device 3 blows from the top of the air conditioner to the direction needed by the user, and the cold air current is further slowed down in the process of flowing to the direction needed by the user under the air resistance buffering effect, and the cold air current is also falling while slowing down, since the density of the cold air current is greater than the density of indoor air, then the slowed down cold air current finally falls on the head and the parts below the head of the user, then the user can enjoy the comfort brought by low wind feeling while cooling; at the same time, since the first air outlet device 2 is only in the air supply mode, then the first air outlet device 2 continuously sucks the cold air and normal temperature air falling to the area near the bottom of the air conditioner after slowing down, then mixes and forms air current with a temperature higher than the cold air generated by the second air outlet device 3, which reduces the cold feeling and is more suitable for human body, and then blows out from the bottom of the air conditioner, which accelerates the air mixing and flowing process without increasing the direct blowing feeling and the cold feeling, thereby achieving the effect of quick cooling; when quick heating is needed, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are both operated in the heating mode, and the driving structure 33 drives the second air outlet device 3 to be in the second air direction position 313, then the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 blow air in combination, since the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom on the machine body 1, then the direction of the air blown by the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 points to the area below the air conditioner, and the warm air current emitted from the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 blows from the bottom of the air conditioner to the direction needed by the user, and the warm air current is further slowed down in the process of flowing to the direction needed by the user under the air resistance buffering effect, since the density of the warm air current is less than the density of indoor air, then the warm air current is also rising while slowing down, since the density of the warm air current is less than the density of indoor air, then the slowed down warm air current finally floats to the parts above the main trunk, feet and legs of the user, then the user can enjoy the comfort brought by low wind feeling while heating.In addition, when the user wants to quickly adjust the temperature of the area below the air conditioner, the user can control the driving structure 33 to drive the second air outlet device 3 to be in the second wind direction position 313, so that the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 converge to blow air. According to the temperature rise or drop, the temperature control mode of the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 can be controlled at the same time, and the air outlet direction of the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 points to the area below the air conditioner. Then, the air force of the air blown out by the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 can be concentrated to blow to the area below the air conditioner, so as to achieve the effect of quickly adjusting the temperature.
[0048] Further, the upper part of the body 1 is provided with a second air outlet 122, and the lower part of the body 1 is provided with a first air outlet 121. The first air outlet device 2 blows air towards the first air outlet 121, and the second air outlet 311 blows air towards the second air outlet 122 when the second air outlet 311 is in the first wind direction position 312, so that the first air outlet device 2 and the second air outlet device 3 blow air independently. When the second air outlet 311 is in the second wind direction position 313, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 blow air towards the first air outlet 121, so that the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 converge to blow air. In this way, when the driving structure 33 drives the second air outlet device 3 to be in the first wind direction position 312, i.e. the second air outlet device 3 blows air towards the second air outlet 122, and the first air outlet device 2 blows air towards the first air outlet 121, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 blow air independently through the second air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 121 respectively. When the driving structure 33 drives the second air outlet device 3 to be in the second wind direction position 313, the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 converge to blow air towards the first air outlet 121.
[0049] In the embodiment, the second air outlet device 3 is also provided with a second air inlet, and the body 1 is further provided with a second air supply port 112 for providing air source for the second air outlet device 3 and a first air supply port 111 for providing air source for the first air outlet device 2. The second air outlet device 3 further comprises an air inlet driving assembly configured to drive the second air inlet to move between the second air supply port 112 and the air path of the first air outlet device 2. In this way, when the user needs to quickly adjust the temperature, the air inlet driving assembly drives the second air inlet to move to the air path of the first air outlet device 2, so that the second air outlet device 3 can absorb the air flow processed by the first air outlet device 2 through the second air inlet, so as to obtain the effect of strengthening the temperature adjustment. When the user wants to cancel the quick adjustment mode, the air inlet driving assembly drives the second air inlet to move to the second air supply port 112 again, so that the second air inlet of the second air outlet device 3 is disconnected from the air path of the first air outlet device 2.
[0050] In the embodiment, the first air outlet device 2 comprises a first heat exchanger 21 and an air outlet fan 22, which are sequentially arranged on the air path of the first air outlet device 2 along the air outlet direction of the first air outlet device 2. In this way, when the air outlet fan 22 works, the suction air path and the blowing air path are generated in the air path direction of the first air outlet device 2, and the first heat exchanger 21 is located on the suction air path, so that the indoor air is first processed by the first heat exchanger 21 after being sucked into the air conditioner, and then is blown out by the air outlet fan 22 after the temperature is adjusted.
[0051] It can be understood that in other preferred embodiments, the specific structure of the first air outlet device 2 can also be appropriately adjusted according to actual conditions, that is, as long as it can have temperature control and blowing functions, and is not limited herein.
[0052] Exemplarily, the specific type of the air outlet fan 22 is a cross-flow fan, and in other embodiments, the specific type of the air outlet fan 22 can also be appropriately adjusted according to specific conditions.
[0053] In the embodiment, the suction port driving assembly is provided with a first moving position and a second moving position on the air path of the first air outlet device 2, the first moving position is arranged between the first heat exchanger 21 and the air outlet fan 22, and the second moving position is arranged at a position downstream of the air outlet of the air outlet fan 22. Figure 3The second air inlet is driven to move to the first moving position by the air inlet driving assembly. When the user needs to quickly regulate the temperature, the second air inlet is driven to move to the first moving position by the air inlet driving assembly. Since the first moving position is arranged between the first heat exchanger 21 and the air outlet fan 22, the air sucked by the second air inlet is processed by the first heat exchanger 21 to obtain a regulated temperature value, and is not accelerated by the air outlet fan 22. Therefore, the second air outlet device 3 obtains the air in the first air outlet device 2 that has only been subjected to temperature regulation, that is, a stronger temperature regulation function is obtained without increasing the wind speed. In addition, when the user needs to quickly regulate the temperature, the second air inlet is driven to move to the second moving position by the air inlet driving assembly. Since the second moving position is arranged downstream of the air outlet of the air outlet fan 22, the air sucked by the second air inlet is processed by the first heat exchanger 21 to obtain a regulated temperature value, and is accelerated by the air outlet fan 22. Therefore, the second air outlet device 3 obtains the air in the first air outlet device 2 that has been subjected to temperature regulation and acceleration, that is, a stronger temperature regulation function is obtained while the wind speed is increased. Since the first moving position is arranged between the first heat exchanger 21 and the air outlet fan 22, and the second moving position is arranged downstream of the air outlet of the air outlet fan 22, the first heat exchanger 21 and the air outlet fan 22 are arranged in the air path of the first air outlet device 2, that is, the second air inlet is moved to the air path of the first air outlet device 2.
[0054] In the embodiment, the second air outlet device 3 further comprises a driving fan 31 and a second heat exchanger 32. The second heat exchanger 32 and the driving fan 31 are sequentially arranged in the air path of the second air outlet device 3 along the air outlet direction of the second air outlet device 3, and the second air power generation port 311 is arranged on the driving fan 31. In this way, by sequentially arranging the second heat exchanger 32 and the driving fan 31 in the air path of the second air outlet device 3 along the air outlet direction of the second air outlet device 3, when the second air outlet device 3 is working, the driving fan 31 rotates to generate a strong suction force to suck air into the air conditioner, and finally blows out from the second air power generation port 311 after heat exchange of the second heat exchanger 32.
[0055] Specifically, the specific type of the driving fan 31 is a turbine fan. In other embodiments, the specific type of the driving fan 31 can also be appropriately adjusted according to specific circumstances.
[0056] In the embodiment, the driving structure 33 comprises a driving motor 331, a driving gear 332 coaxially arranged on an output shaft of the driving motor 331, and a driven gear 333 meshingly arranged with the driving gear 332; the driving fan 31 is pivotally arranged in the body 1, and the driven gear 333 is arranged on the driving fan 31, so that when the driving motor 331 works, the driving gear 332 can drive the driven gear 333 to drive the driving fan 31 to rotate relative to the body 1, so as to make the second wind generating port 311 of the driving fan 31 rotate and offset in the range covered by the second air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 121. In this way, when the driving motor 331 works, the driving motor 331 drives the driving gear 332 to rotate, and under the meshing transmission of the driving gear 332 and the driven gear 333, the driving gear 332 drives the driven gear 333 to drive the second air outlet 3 to rotate relative to the body 1, so as to make the second wind generating port 311 of the second air outlet 3 rotate and offset in the range covered by the second air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 121. For example, when the driving motor 331 rotates clockwise, the second wind generating port 311 rotates counterclockwise, and the second wind generating port 311 rotates and offsets towards the second air outlet 122; when the driving motor 331 rotates counterclockwise, the second wind generating port 311 rotates clockwise, and the second wind generating port 311 rotates and offsets towards the first air outlet 121, that is, the driving of the second wind generating port 311 to rotate and offset in the range covered by the second air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 121 is realized, so as to make the driving structure 33 realize that when the driving of the second wind generating port 311 to rotate to the first wind direction position 312 is realized, the second air outlet 3 and the first air outlet 2 independently blow air; and when the driving of the second wind generating port 311 to rotate to the second wind direction position 313 is realized, the second air outlet 3 and the first air outlet 2 blow air together.
[0057] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the specific structure of the driving structure 33 can also be appropriately adjusted according to actual conditions, that is, as long as the structure can drive the second wind generating port 311 to rotate and offset in the range covered by the second air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 121.
[0058] In the embodiment, the driven gear 333 is arranged on the shell of the driving fan 31, and the driven gear 333 is coaxially arranged with the virtual rotation center axis of the driving fan 31. The virtual rotation center axis is the central axis around which the driving fan 31 rotates. In this way, since the driven gear 333 is coaxially arranged with the virtual rotation center axis of the driving fan 31, the air outlet direction of the second air generating port 311 is also arranged around the virtual rotation center axis. When the driving motor 331 works, the driving motor 331 drives the driven gear 333 to drive the driving fan 31 to rotate relative to the machine body 1, and at the same time, the air outlet direction of the second air generating port 311 also coaxially rotates relative to the machine body 1. Moreover, the air outlet direction of the second air generating port 311 only rotates around the virtual rotation center axis and does not move up and down, so that the air outlet direction of the second air generating port 311 is more stable and controllable.
[0059] In the embodiment, the machine body 1 includes the base 13, and the rear shell 11 and the front shell 12 arranged on the base 13. The rear shell 11 and the front shell 12 jointly enclose the internal mounting cavity, and the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are arranged in the internal mounting cavity. In this way, the rear shell 11 and the front shell 12 jointly enclose the internal mounting cavity, and the second air outlet device 3 and the first air outlet device 2 are arranged in the internal mounting cavity. The entire air conditioner is vertically erected on the ground under the support of the base 13, and has the characteristic of compact structure.
[0060] In the embodiment, the machine body 1 further includes the mounting seat 14, and the second air outlet device 3 is arranged on the mounting seat 14. In this way, under the support of the mounting seat 14, the second air outlet device 3 can be stably arranged in the machine body 1, and has the characteristic of stable structure.
