[0002] With the advancement of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, more and more smart home appliances are entering people's daily lives, providing users with a more convenient and comfortable living and working environment.

[0003] Robotic vacuum cleaners are a type of smart home appliance that uses artificial intelligence to automatically clean floors and collect dust in a dustbin. After a period of operation, the dustbin accumulates a lot of dust, requiring manual opening and emptying. Because the dustbin is small, frequent disassembly reduces the user experience. Furthermore, if the dustbin is not emptied promptly, the robot vacuum may not clean the floor effectively the next time it's used, resulting in reduced cleaning performance and overall usability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The first aspect of this application provides an air duct structure for a cabinet-type air conditioner to solve the technical problem that existing robotic vacuum cleaners require frequent manual disassembly of the dust collection box, resulting in low practicality and poor user experience.

[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a duct structure for a cabinet-type air conditioner. The duct structure includes: an air inlet duct, a first end of which is connected to the air inlet of the air conditioner, and a second end of which is provided with a fan. The air outlet side of the fan is connected to the air outlet of the air conditioner. The fan is used to draw in indoor air that enters the air conditioner through the air inlet and the air inlet duct, and blow it into the room through the air outlet; and a dust collection duct, a first end of which is connected to the dust collection box of the air conditioner, and a second end of which is connected to any position between the first end and the second end of the air inlet duct.

[0006] The dust collection box can be connected to the dust collection box of the robot vacuum cleaner, and the fan is used to suck the dust in the dust collection box into the dust collection box.

[0007] This application improves the air duct of a cabinet air conditioner by setting up a suction air duct connected to the dust collection box. When the dust collection box is connected to the dust collection box of the robot vacuum cleaner, it can clean the dust in the dust collection box of the robot vacuum cleaner without the need for frequent manual disassembly of the dust collection box, effectively reducing the labor intensity of users, improving the user experience, and enhancing the practicality of the robot vacuum cleaner.

[0008] Furthermore, the air duct structure also includes an air damper assembly, which is disposed at the connection between the air inlet duct and the dust extraction duct, and is used to control the opening and closing of the air inlet duct and the dust extraction duct.

[0009] This application provides a damper assembly at the connection between the dust extraction duct and the air intake duct, allowing users to choose to open either the air intake duct or the dust extraction duct to suit their needs.

[0010] Furthermore, the damper assembly includes a damper plate, a rotating shaft, and a driving member. The rotating shaft is connected to the damper plate, the fixed end of the driving member is connected to the outer wall of the air inlet duct, and the free end of the driving member is connected to the rotating shaft. The driving member drives the damper plate to rotate around the rotating shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, a first limiting part is provided in the air inlet duct, which is used to limit the rotation angle of the damper plate along a first direction. When the damper plate is in contact with the first limiting part, the air inlet duct is closed; and / or a second limiting part is provided in the dust suction duct, which is used to limit the rotation angle of the damper plate along a second direction. When the damper plate is in contact with the second limiting part, the dust suction duct is closed, wherein the first direction is opposite to the second direction.

[0012] Furthermore, a first filter screen is provided at the first end of the dust extraction duct, and / or a second filter screen is provided at the air inlet.

[0013] This application can filter out small dust particles by installing a first filter at the first end of the dust extraction duct or a second filter at the air inlet, preventing small dust particles from entering the fan and cabinet air conditioner, thus affecting the working performance of the fan and indoor air quality, and consequently affecting the health of users.

[0014] A second aspect of this application provides a cabinet-type air conditioner, including a base and the aforementioned air duct structure. The base is located below the air duct structure. The base includes a first receiving cavity and a second receiving cavity. The first receiving cavity is used to receive a robotic vacuum cleaner, which includes a dust collection box with a dust discharge port. The second receiving cavity is used to receive a dust collection box, which includes a first suction port. When the robotic vacuum cleaner is received in the first receiving cavity, the first suction port is connected to the dust discharge port.

[0015] This application provides a first and a second accommodating cavity below the air duct structure of a cabinet air conditioner. These accommodating cavities are used to house a robotic vacuum cleaner and a dust collection box, respectively. This provides parking space for the robotic vacuum cleaner, eliminating the need for users to reserve a separate parking space for it when using it indoors, thus improving the utilization of indoor space. Furthermore, it enables the cleaning of dust from the robotic vacuum cleaner's dust collection box without requiring frequent manual disassembly of the dust collection box, effectively reducing the user's workload, improving the user experience, and enhancing the practicality of the robotic vacuum cleaner.

[0016] Furthermore, a first one-way valve assembly is provided at the first suction port, which can prevent dust in the dust collection box from leaking from the first suction port; and / or, a second one-way valve assembly is provided at the dust discharge port, which can prevent dust in the dust collection box from leaking from the dust discharge port.

[0017] This application provides a first one-way valve assembly and a second one-way valve assembly on the dust discharge port of the dust collection box and the first suction port of the dust collection box, respectively, which can prevent dust from leaking from the dust discharge port and the first suction port, and prevent dust from returning to the dust collection box from the dust collection box.

[0018] Furthermore, the dust collection box is provided with a second dust suction port, which is connected to the first end of the dust suction duct.

[0019] Furthermore, the first receiving cavity includes a robot vacuum cleaner inlet / outlet, which is located on one side of the air conditioner outlet.

[0020] This application places the inlet and outlet of the robotic vacuum cleaner and the air outlet of the cabinet air conditioner on the same side of the second receiving cavity, so that the robotic vacuum cleaner can enter and exit without being affected when the air conditioner is placed in a corner.

[0021] Furthermore, the base includes a third baffle, which is movably connected to the base and is used to open or close the inlet and outlet of the sweeping robot.

[0022] This application, by setting a third baffle at the opening of the second receiving cavity, can prevent external objects, or even conductive objects, from entering the first receiving cavity and causing an electric shock safety accident. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the foregoing objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the following description is provided in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-2 Specific embodiments of this application are described in detail.

[0030] In this application, the terms "connection" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly, for example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure.

[0031] In this application, the terms "inner", "outer", "upper", "lower", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0032] See appendix Figure 1 The first aspect of this application provides a duct structure 100 for a cabinet air conditioner. The duct structure 100 includes: an air inlet duct 110, the first end of which is connected to an air conditioner air inlet 120, and a fan 130 at the second end, the air outlet side of which is connected to an air conditioner air outlet 140. The fan 130 is used to draw in indoor air entering the air conditioner through the air conditioner air inlet 120 and the air inlet duct 110, and blow it into the room through the air conditioner air outlet 140; and a dust collection duct 150, the first end of which is connected to a dust collection box 330 of the air conditioner, and the second end of which is connected to any position between the first end and the second end of the air inlet duct 110.

[0033] The dust collection box 330 can be connected to the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200, and the fan 130 is used to suck the dust in the dust collection box 210 into the dust collection box 330.

[0034] It should be noted that the fan 130 can be a centrifugal fan 130, an axial fan 130, or a mixed-flow fan 130.

[0035] Therefore, this application improves the air duct of the cabinet air conditioner by setting up a dust suction air duct 150 connected to the dust collection box 330. When the dust collection box 330 is connected to the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200, the dust in the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 can be cleaned without the need for frequent manual disassembly of the dust collection box 210, which effectively reduces the user's labor intensity, improves the user experience, and enhances the practicality of the robot vacuum cleaner 200.

[0036] Preferably, the air duct structure 100 further includes an air damper assembly, which is disposed at the connection between the air inlet duct 110 and the dust extraction duct 150. The air damper assembly is used to control the opening and closing of the air inlet duct 110 and the dust extraction duct 150.

[0037] It should be noted that when the air conditioner is in heating, cooling, or fan mode, and the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 is connected to the dustbin, the user can control the damper assembly to open both the air intake duct 110 and the suction duct 150. When the air conditioner is not in heating, cooling, or fan mode, and the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 is connected to the dustbin, the user can control the damper assembly to open the suction duct 150 while closing the air intake duct 110. When the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 is not connected to the dustbin, and the air conditioner is in heating, cooling, or fan mode, the user can control the damper assembly to open the air intake duct 110 while closing the suction duct 150.

[0038] Therefore, by providing a damper assembly at the connection between the dust extraction duct 150 and the air intake duct 110, this application allows the user to choose to open either the air intake duct 110 or the dust extraction duct 150, thus adapting to the user's needs.

[0039] Preferably, the damper assembly includes a damper plate 151, a rotating shaft, and a drive component. The rotating shaft is connected to the damper plate 151, the fixed end of the drive component is connected to the outer wall of the air inlet duct 110, and the free end of the drive component is connected to the rotating shaft. The drive component drives the damper plate 151 to rotate around the rotating shaft.

[0040] Specifically, the driving component is a motor or electric motor.

[0041] It should be noted that the rotating shaft and the damper plate 151 can be an integral structure or a separate structure.

[0042] It should be noted that the damper plate 151 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape and size of the dust suction duct 150 and the air intake duct 110.

[0043] Preferably, the air inlet duct 110 is provided with a first limiting part 111, which is used to limit the rotation angle of the damper plate 151 along the first direction. When the damper plate 151 is in contact with the first limiting part 111, the air inlet duct 110 is closed; and / or the dust suction duct 150 is provided with a second limiting part 152, which is used to limit the rotation angle of the damper plate 151 along the second direction. When the damper plate 151 is in contact with the second limiting part 152, the dust suction duct 150 is closed. The first direction is opposite to the second direction.

[0044] Preferably, a first filter 153 is provided at the first end of the dust extraction duct 150, and / or a second filter 112 is provided at the air inlet.

[0045] If the fan 130 is used to directly extract air from the dust collection box 330, small dust particles inside the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 will enter the fan 130 and the cabinet air conditioner through the suction duct 150. Long-term use will affect the working performance of the fan 130, and the dust particles will enter the cabinet air conditioner and then enter the indoor space through the air outlet, affecting the indoor air quality.

[0046] Therefore, by setting a first filter 153 at the first end of the dust extraction duct 150 or a second filter 112 at the air inlet, this application can filter out small dust particles, preventing them from entering the fan 130 and the cabinet air conditioner, thus affecting the working performance of the fan 130 and the indoor air quality, and consequently affecting the health of the user.

The second receiving cavity 320 is used to receive a dust collection box 330. The dust collection box 330 includes a first suction port 331. When the robotic vacuum cleaner 200 is received in the first receiving cavity 310, the first suction port 331 is connected to the dust discharge port 211.

[0048] In one embodiment, the first receiving cavity 310 is located below the second receiving cavity 320, the first dust suction port 331 is located at the bottom of the garbage collection box, and the dust discharge structure is located at the top of the dust collection box 210. The first dust suction port 331 and the dust discharge structure are arranged opposite to each other.

[0049] In another embodiment, the first receiving cavity 310 is located in front of the second receiving cavity 320, and the first dust suction port 331 and the dust discharge port 211 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0050] In other embodiments, the first receiving cavity 310 and the second receiving cavity 320 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the first dust suction port 331 and the dust discharge port 211 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0051] This application provides a first receiving cavity 310 and a second receiving cavity 320 below the air duct structure 100 of the cabinet air conditioner, which are used to accommodate the robot vacuum cleaner 200 and the dust collection box 330, respectively. This provides parking space for the robot vacuum cleaner 200, so that users do not need to reserve a separate parking space for the robot vacuum cleaner 200 when using it indoors, thus improving the utilization rate of indoor space. On the other hand, it enables the cleaning of dust in the dust collection box 210 of the robot vacuum cleaner 200 without the need for frequent manual disassembly of the dust collection box 210, effectively reducing the user's labor intensity, improving the user experience, and enhancing the practicality of the robot vacuum cleaner 200.

The first one-way valve assembly 340 can open or close the first suction port 331. When the suction duct 150 is connected, under the strong suction of the fan 130, the second one-way valve assembly 220 opens the first suction port 331, the air passage is connected, and the dust in the dust collection box is sucked into the dust collection box 330. When the suction duct 150 is closed, the first one-way valve assembly 340 closes the first suction port 331, preventing dust from leaking from the first suction port 331.

[0054] To prevent dust from escaping from the dust outlet 211 when the robot vacuum cleaner 200 is working, a second one-way valve assembly 220 is installed at the dust outlet 211. The second one-way valve assembly 220 can open or close the dust outlet 211. When the suction duct 150 is connected, under the strong suction of the fan 130, the second one-way valve assembly 220 opens the dust outlet 211, the air passage is connected, and the dust in the dust collection box 210 is sucked into the dust collection box 330. When the robot vacuum cleaner 200 is working normally, the second one-way valve assembly 220 closes the dust outlet 211 to prevent dust leakage.

[0055] In addition, the first suction port 331 and the dust discharge port 211 are respectively provided with a first one-way valve assembly 340 and a second one-way valve assembly 220 to prevent dust from returning from the dust collection box 330 back to the dust collection box 210.

[0061] See appendix Figure 1 Preferably, the dust collection box 330 is provided with a second dust suction port 332, which is connected to the first end of the dust suction duct 150.

[0062] See appendix Figure 1 and 2 Preferably, the first receiving cavity 310 includes a robot vacuum cleaner inlet / outlet 311, which is located on one side of the air outlet.

[0063] This application places the robot vacuum cleaner inlet / outlet 311 of the first receiving cavity 310 and the air outlet 140 of the cabinet air conditioner on the same side, so that the robot vacuum cleaner 200 can enter and exit without being affected when the air conditioner is placed in a corner.
