Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioners, and more specifically, to an air outlet assembly and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, their requirements for air conditioning units are increasing. The installation and disassembly of the air outlet and fan components in existing air conditioners are cumbersome, resulting in low installation efficiency and heat exchange efficiency; the airflow is not gentle, causing discomfort; and the internal structure of the air conditioning unit is not compact enough, leading to low stability.

[0003] In view of this, the present invention is hereby proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air outlet assembly and an air conditioner to solve the problem that the internal structure of the existing air conditioner cabinet is not compact enough, resulting in low stability of the air conditioner cabinet.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] An air outlet assembly is installed inside the housing assembly of an air conditioner. The air outlet assembly includes a duct mounting body and a fan assembly. The fan assembly is mounted on the duct mounting body. An installation space assembly is provided on the duct mounting body. The installation space assembly includes a first installation space, a second installation space, and a third installation space. The center lines connecting the first installation space, the second installation space, and the third installation space form a triangular structure.

[0007] The air outlet component described in this invention has two advantages: firstly, the triangular structure provides stability, improving the structural stability of the air conditioner; secondly, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner, making it less prone to accidental tipping or instability, further enhancing its structural stability; and thirdly, it creates a triangular air outlet, thereby improving the windless air distribution effect and enhancing the comfort of the air conditioner.

[0008] Furthermore, the center line connecting the first installation space, the second installation space, and the third installation space forms an equilateral triangle.

[0009] This design, on the one hand, provides stability through the equilateral triangle structure, improving the structural stability of the air conditioner; on the other hand, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner, making it less prone to accidental tipping or instability, further enhancing the structural stability of the air conditioner unit; in addition, this design increases the cross-section of the casing components, increasing the contact area between the bottom panel of the air conditioner and the ground, making it more stable to place.

[0010] Furthermore, the air outlet assembly is detachably connected to the housing assembly.

[0011] This feature allows any damaged structure to be disassembled and replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0012] Furthermore, a slot assembly is provided on the duct mounting body, and a snap-fit ​​assembly is provided on the housing assembly. The slot assembly and the snap-fit ​​assembly cooperate to allow the duct mounting body to slide and snap onto the housing assembly.

[0013] This design facilitates the installation and disassembly of the ductwork mount and the housing assembly, improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0014] Furthermore, the fan assembly is detachably connected to the air duct mounting body.

[0015] This feature allows any damaged structure to be disassembled and replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0016] Furthermore, a first rotating mounting part is provided on the air duct mounting body, and a second rotating mounting part is provided on the fan assembly. The first rotating mounting part and the second rotating mounting part cooperate to make the fan assembly rotate and snap onto the air duct mounting body.

[0017] This design facilitates the installation and removal of the ductwork mount and the fan assembly, improving the efficiency of installation and removal.

[0018] Furthermore, the fan assembly includes a fan body and a fan guard, the fan body is mounted on the fan guard, a fan grille is provided on the inner side of the fan guard, and a raised airflow dissipation structure is provided on the fan grille.

[0019] The raised air diffuser structure facilitates multiple collisions between the heat exchange air and natural wind, resulting in a more even mixing of the two airflows and improving the gentleness of the airflow from the air conditioner, thus enhancing user comfort. Furthermore, the raised air diffuser structure disperses and diffuses the airflow, effectively reducing wind speed and improving the windless airflow effect, further enhancing comfort. Additionally, the air blown by the fan body, after passing through the raised air diffuser structure, does not directly impact the front panel, reducing noise generated by impact and helping to lower noise levels in windless mode.

[0020] Furthermore, the shape of the raised air-dispersing structure is set to spherical.

[0021] This setting reduces wind resistance, improves airflow, increases wind speed, and increases air volume.

[0022] Furthermore, a fan motor is installed on the fan assembly, and a motor cover is installed on the fan motor, the motor cover being detachably connected to the fan motor.

[0023] This feature allows any damaged structure to be disassembled and replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0024] In a second aspect, the present invention provides an air conditioner, any one of which uses the aforementioned air outlet assembly.

[0025] The present invention provides an air outlet assembly and an air conditioner, which, compared with the prior art, have the following advantages:

[0026] 1) The air outlet component of the present invention forms a triangular structure by connecting the centers of the first installation space, the second installation space and the third installation space. On the one hand, the triangular structure has stability, which improves the structural stability of the air conditioner; on the other hand, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner, making it less likely to tip over or become unstable, further improving the structural stability of the air conditioner; in addition, it also forms a triangular air outlet, thereby improving the windless air dissipation effect and thus enhancing the comfort of the air conditioner.

[0027] 2) The air outlet component of the present invention has a raised air diffuser structure on the fan grille. The raised air diffuser structure facilitates multiple collisions between the heat exchange air and the natural air, thereby making the heat exchange air and the natural air mix evenly, thus improving the gentleness of the air outlet of the air conditioner and thus improving the comfort of the air conditioner. On the other hand, the raised air diffuser structure disperses and diffuses the airflow, thereby effectively reducing the wind speed and improving the windless air diffusion effect, thus improving the comfort of the air conditioner. In addition, the air blown by the fan body will not directly impact the front panel after passing through the raised air diffuser structure, so it is less likely to impact the front panel and generate noise, which helps to reduce noise in the windless mode.

[0028] 3) In the air outlet assembly described in this invention, the air duct mounting body is slidably snapped onto the housing assembly, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the air duct mounting body and the housing assembly, thereby improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0029] 4) The air outlet assembly of the present invention has a fan assembly that is rotatably snapped onto the air duct mounting body, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the air duct mounting body and the fan assembly, and improves the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0030] 5) In the air outlet assembly described in this invention, the motor cover is detachably connected to the fan motor, which improves the efficiency of installation and disassembly. Attached Figure Description

[0063] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] As people's living standards improve, their requirements for air conditioner cabinet units are getting higher and higher. The internal structure of existing air conditioner cabinet units is not compact enough, resulting in low stability; the airflow is not gentle, making people feel uncomfortable; the installation and disassembly of the air outlet components and fan components are relatively troublesome, and the installation efficiency of the air outlet components is low.

[0066] The prior art patent application CN201980061545.4 discloses an air conditioner, including: a housing assembly 10, a heat exchanger 40 located inside the housing assembly 10; and a fan assembly 50 located behind the heat exchanger 40. The patent's design, including the partition members and the first and second flow paths, results in a large temperature difference between the air blown out from the first and second flow paths, causing discomfort to the user; the vertical distribution of three fan assemblies makes the airflow harsh and uncomfortable; the internal structure of the air conditioner is not compact enough, leading to low stability; and the installation and disassembly of the air outlet assembly and fan assembly are cumbersome, resulting in low installation efficiency for the air outlet assembly.

[0067] This embodiment proposes an air outlet component, such as... Figures 1-29 As shown, the air outlet assembly includes an air duct mounting body 80 and a fan assembly 50. The air outlet assembly is disposed between the front panel 14 and the heat exchanger 40. Figure 3 As shown, the fan assembly 50 is located behind the front panel 14 and in front of the heat exchanger 40. A blower unit 46 is located below the air outlet assembly. The air outlet assembly mixes the air coming out of the heat exchanger 40 and the air blown in from the blower unit 46 and blows it onto the front panel 14.

[0068] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, an air inlet is provided below the air duct mounting body 80, which facilitates the entry of air blown from the blower unit 46 into the interior of the air outlet assembly.

[0069] Specifically, the air outlet assembly is installed within the housing assembly 10 of the air conditioner 1. The air outlet assembly includes a duct mounting body 80 and a fan assembly 50. The fan assembly 50 is mounted on the duct mounting body 80, and a mounting space assembly 88 is provided on the duct mounting body 80. Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mounting space component 88 includes a first mounting space 81, a second mounting space 82, and a third mounting space 83, and the center line connecting the first mounting space 81, the second mounting space 82, and the third mounting space 83 forms a triangle.

[0070] The center lines connecting the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 form a triangle. On the one hand, the triangular structure provides stability, improving the structural stability of the air conditioner 1. On the other hand, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner 1, making it less prone to accidental tipping or instability, further enhancing its structural stability. In addition, the triangular shape formed by the center lines of the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 creates a triangular air outlet, reducing the direct airflow and improving the air distribution effect, thus enhancing the comfort of the air conditioner 1. Moreover, the triangular air outlet shape can also increase the airflow diffusion range, improving the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1.

[0071] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the housing assembly 10 forms the appearance of the air conditioner 1. The housing assembly 10 may include a front panel 14, a middle frame 12, a front housing 20, and a rear housing 30. The front housing 20 includes a pair of side panels 22 located between the front panel 14 and the rear housing 30, an upper panel 24 forming the upper surface of the housing assembly 10, and a lower panel 26 forming the lower surface of the housing assembly 10. An air inlet is provided on the housing assembly 10, and the air inlet is provided on the rear housing 30.

[0072] Specifically, the fan assembly 50 includes a first fan assembly, a second fan assembly, and a third fan assembly. The first fan assembly cooperates with the first mounting space 81, the second fan assembly cooperates with the second mounting space 82, and the third fan assembly cooperates with the third mounting space 83.

[0073] Specifically, the first fan assembly is installed in the first mounting space 81, the second fan assembly is installed in the second mounting space 82, and the third fan assembly is installed in the third mounting space 83.

[0074] More specifically, the positions of the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 on the air duct mounting body 80 are not limited.

[0075] More specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the upper side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the lower side of the air duct mounting body 80; or, as... Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the lower side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the upper side of the air duct mounting body 80; or, as... Figure 6 As shown, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the right side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the left side of the air duct mounting body 80; or, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the left side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the right side of the air duct mounting body 80.

[0076] In this embodiment, preferably, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the lower side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the upper side of the air duct mounting body 80.

[0077] This design makes the weight of the lower part of the air conditioner 1 greater than that of the upper part, thereby lowering the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner 1, making it less likely to tip over or become unstable, and further improving the structural stability of the air conditioner 1.

[0078] Specifically, the centers of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are both at the same height of the air conditioner 1, which makes the corresponding second fan assembly and third fan assembly have the same installation height in the housing assembly 10. That is, the center of gravity of the second fan assembly and the third fan assembly are at the same height, thereby making the overall structure of the air conditioner 1 compact, the center of gravity lowered, and thus improving its structural stability.

[0079] Specifically, the size relationship between the radii of the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 is not limited.

[0080] More specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the radii of the second mounting space 82 and the third mounting space 83 can be set to be equal to the radius of the first mounting space 81; for example... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the radii of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 can also be set to be different from the radius of the first installation space 81.

[0081] In this embodiment, preferably, such as Figure 7 As shown, the radii of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are set to be equal to the radius of the first installation space 81.

[0082] The radii of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are set to be equal to the radius of the first installation space 81, which improves the structural stability of the air conditioner 1.

[0083] Specifically, the center line connecting the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 forms an equilateral triangle.

[0084] The center line connecting the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 forms an equilateral triangle. On the one hand, the equilateral triangle structure has stability, which improves the structural stability of the air conditioner 1; on the other hand, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner 1, making it less likely to tip over or become unstable, further improving the structural stability of the air conditioner cabinet unit; in addition, this setting also increases the cross-section of the shell assembly 10, making the contact area between the lower panel 26 of the air conditioner 1 and the ground larger, and making it more stable to place.

[0085] Specifically, such as Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the air outlet assembly is detachably connected to the housing assembly 10. This design allows for individual replacement of any damaged structure, eliminating the need for complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0086] More specifically, the air duct mounting body 80 is detachably connected to the housing assembly 10.

[0087] More specifically, such as Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, a slot assembly 85 is provided on the air duct mounting body 80, such as... Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, a snap-fit ​​assembly 18 is provided on the housing assembly 10, and the slot assembly 85 cooperates with the snap-fit ​​assembly 18 to allow the air duct mounting body 80 to slide and snap onto the housing assembly 10.

[0088] This arrangement facilitates the installation and disassembly of the duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10, improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0089] More specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the slot assembly 85 includes a positioning part 851 and a slot part 852. The positioning part 851 communicates with the slot part 852, and the positioning part 851 and the slot part 852 are disposed on the mounting protrusion 853.

[0090] The positioning part 851 serves to position the air duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10 during installation, and can also pre-fix the air duct mounting body 80 onto the housing assembly 10. The mounting protrusion 853 enhances the structural strength of the slot assembly 85.

[0091] More specifically, the positioning part 851 is configured as a positioning groove.

[0092] More specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the mounting protrusion 853 is disposed on the clearance groove 84, as... Figure 10 As shown, the clearance grooves 84 are provided on both sides of the air duct mounting body 80. This configuration provides installation space between the air duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10.

[0093] More specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, a reinforcing structure 86 is also provided within the clearance groove 84. The reinforcing structure 86 includes a first reinforcing rib 861 and a second reinforcing rib 862. This arrangement strengthens the structural strength of the air duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the air conditioner 1.

[0094] More specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, a first reinforcing rib 861 is provided below the mounting protrusion 853, and the first reinforcing rib 861 is fitted to the mounting protrusion 853. This arrangement strengthens the structural strength of the slot assembly 85, thereby improving the installation stability between the air duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10.

[0095] Specifically, such as Figure 12 As shown, the latching assembly 18 includes a guide portion 182 and a latching portion 181. The guide portion 182 is connected to the latching portion 181, and the guide portion 182 and the latching portion 181 are disposed inside the housing assembly 10.

[0096] The slot portion 852 engages with the buckle portion 181.

[0097] More specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown, a handle assembly 87 is provided on the duct mounting body 80. The handle assembly 87 facilitates the installation of the duct mounting body 80 on the housing assembly 10 and also enhances the structural strength of the duct mounting body 80.

[0098] More specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown, the handle assembly 87 is positioned at the center of the air duct mount 80 near the front panel 14. This arrangement facilitates balanced force distribution on the air duct mount 80 during installation with the housing assembly 10.

[0099] More specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown, the handle assembly 87 includes a first handle 871 and a second handle 872, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the center position of the air duct mounting body 80 near the front panel 14.

[0100] When installing the air duct mounting body 80 and the housing assembly 10, the air duct mounting body 80 is first placed downwards by the handle assembly 87, so that the positioning part 851 of the air duct mounting body 80 is pre-fixed on the buckle assembly 18. Then, the air duct mounting body 80 is slid upwards by the handle assembly 87, so that the buckle part 181 engages with the slot part 852.

[0101] When removing the duct mounting body 80 from the housing assembly 10, first slide the duct mounting body 80 downwards using the handle assembly 87, so that the latching part 181 disengages from the latching part 852. At this time, the latching assembly 18 enters the positioning part 851. Then, lift the duct mounting body 80 upwards using the handle assembly 87 to remove the duct mounting body 80 from the housing assembly 10.

[0102] Specifically, such as 13. Figure 14 , Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the fan assembly 50 is detachably connected to the air duct mounting body 80.

[0103] This feature allows any damaged structure to be disassembled and replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0104] Specifically, such as Figure 13 As shown, an installation space component 88 is provided on the air duct mounting body 80, and the fan assembly 50 is rotatably snapped onto the installation space component 88.

[0105] Specifically, such as Figure 13 As shown, the installation space component 88 includes a first positioning hole 881, a limiting block 882 is provided in the first positioning hole 881, and a second positioning hole 883 is provided on the limiting block 882.

[0106] When the fan assembly 50 is installed on the mounting space component 88 on the air duct mounting body 80, the first positioning hole 881 serves to position and pre-fix the fan assembly 50. The limit block 882 limits the installation of the fan assembly 50, and the second positioning hole 883 facilitates the fan body 52 to be exposed from the rear side of the air duct mounting body 80.

[0107] Specifically, such as Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the first positioning hole 881 and the second positioning hole 883 are concentrically arranged. The arrangement of the first positioning hole 881 and the second positioning hole 883 facilitates the flow of air from the heat exchanger 40 into the air duct mounting body 80.

[0108] Specifically, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, a first flange 884 is provided around the first positioning hole 881. This provision is used to strengthen the structural strength of the first positioning hole 881; on the other hand, the first flange 884 cooperates with the outer cover 72 of the fan assembly 50, thereby facilitating the installation of the fan assembly 50 on the air duct mounting body 80.

[0109] Specifically, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, a second flange 885 is provided around the first flange 884.

[0110] Specifically, such as Figure 15 As shown, a first rotating mounting part 886 is provided on the air duct mounting body 80, such as... Figure 17 As shown, a second rotary mounting portion 73 is provided on the fan assembly 50, such as... Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the first rotary mounting part 886 and the second rotary mounting part 73 cooperate to make the fan assembly 50 rotate and snap onto the air duct mounting body 80.

[0111] This design facilitates the installation and removal of the air duct mount 80 and the fan assembly 50, improving the efficiency of installation and removal.

[0112] Specifically, the number of the first rotary mounting portion 886 and the second rotary mounting portion 73 is not limited. Preferably, in this embodiment, as... Figure 14 and Figure 16 As shown, the number of the first rotary mounting part 886 and the second rotary mounting part 73 is set to four. This arrangement ensures that the rotation angle is less than 90 degrees, improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0113] The first rotary mounting part 886 is disposed on the second flange 885. This arrangement is used to enhance the structural strength of the first rotary mounting part 886.

[0114] Specifically, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the first rotating mounting part 886 includes a first locking block 8861, a second locking block 8862, and a first mounting hole 8863. The first mounting hole 8863 is disposed between the first locking block 8861 and the second locking block 8862.

[0115] More specifically, such as Figure 15 As shown, a first reinforcing protrusion 8866 is provided at one end of the first locking block 8861 near the first mounting hole 8863. This feature strengthens the structural strength of the first locking block 8861 and raises its height, making it easier for the first locking block 8861 to engage with the first locking hole 731.

[0116] More specifically, such as Figure 15 As shown, a second reinforcing protrusion 8864 is provided at the end of the second locking block 8862 away from the first mounting hole 8863. This feature strengthens the structural strength of the second locking block 8862 and raises its height, facilitating engagement between the second locking block 8862 and the second locking hole 732. It also limits the mounting protrusion 75 of the second rotating mounting portion 73 of the fan assembly 50.

[0117] More specifically, such as Figure 15 As shown, a reinforcing device is provided around the first mounting hole 8863.

[0118] More specifically, such as Figure 15 As shown, the first rotary mounting portion 886 further includes a limiting protrusion 8865, which is disposed on the second flange 885 and extends toward the front panel 14. This arrangement is used to enhance the structural strength of the first rotary mounting portion 886; on the other hand, the first flange 884 cooperates with the outer cover 72 of the fan assembly 50, thereby facilitating the installation of the fan assembly 50 on the air duct mounting body 80.

[0119] Specifically, such as Figure 16 As shown, the fan assembly 50 includes a fan body 52 and a fan guard 60. The fan body 52 is disposed on the fan guard 60.

[0120] More specifically, such as Figure 16 As shown, the fan body 52 is disposed inside the fan protective cover 60.

[0121] Specifically, such as Figure 16 As shown, the fan guard 60 includes an outer cover 72, which is disposed on the outside of the fan assembly 50.

[0122] Specifically, such as Figure 17 As shown, a second rotating mounting part 73 is provided on the fan guard 60.

[0123] More specifically, such as Figure 17 As shown, a mounting protrusion 75 is provided on the outer cover 72, and a second rotating mounting part 73 is provided on the mounting protrusion 75.

[0124] The second rotating mounting part 73 includes a first locking hole 731, a second locking hole 732, and a second mounting hole 733, wherein the second mounting hole 733 is disposed between the first locking hole 731 and the second locking hole 732.

[0125] More specifically, such as Figure 17As shown, a third locking block 734 is provided in the middle of the second locking hole 732. This arrangement strengthens the structural strength of the second locking hole 732 and facilitates the engagement of the second locking block 8862 with the third locking block 734 of the second locking hole 732.

[0126] When installing the fan assembly 50 and the air duct mount 80: (e.g.) Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, the fan assembly 50 is first placed in the first positioning hole 881 of the mounting space component 88 on the air duct mounting body 80, and then the second rotating mounting part 73 on the fan assembly 50 is rotated clockwise so that the first locking block 8861 engages with the first locking hole 731, and the second locking block 8862 engages with the third locking block 734; when the mounting protrusion 75 contacts the second reinforcing protrusion 8864, the rotation stops, and finally the fan assembly 50 is fixed on the air duct mounting body 80 by the third connecting piece 74 passing through the second mounting hole 733 and the first mounting hole 8863.

[0127] When disassembling the fan assembly 50 and the air duct mounting body 80: first remove the third connector 74 from the second mounting hole 733 and the first mounting hole 8863, then rotate the second rotating mounting part 73 on the fan assembly 50 counterclockwise so that the first locking block 8861 disengages from the first locking hole 731, and the second locking block 8862 disengages from the third locking block 734; finally, remove the fan assembly 50 from the first positioning hole 881.

[0128] Specifically, such as Figure 20 , Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, a fan grille 64 is also provided on the inner side of the fan guard 60, and the fan grille 64 guides the air flowing through the fan body 52. Figure 16 As shown, a fan grille 64 is disposed on the front side of the fan body 52 to guide the air blown by the fan body 52. ​​The front surface of the fan grille 64 faces the front panel 14, and the rear surface of the fan grille 64 faces the fan body 52. ​​That is, the fan grille 64 can separate the front panel 14 from the fan body 52.

[0129] More specifically, such as Figure 16 As shown, viewed from the front of the housing assembly 10, the fan grille 64 can be bent counterclockwise from the center. The fan body 52 may have blades that are bent clockwise from the center. Because the bending direction of the fan grille 64 is opposite to the bending direction of the blades of the fan body 52, the air blown by the fan body 52 can move further in a straight line when passing through the fan grille 64.

[0130] Specifically, such as Figure 22 , Figure 23 , Figure 24 and Figure 25As shown, a raised airflow structure 641 is provided on the fan assembly 50.

[0131] The raised air diffuser structure 641 facilitates multiple collisions between the heat exchange air and the natural wind, resulting in a more uniform mixture and improving the gentleness of the airflow from the air conditioner 1, thus enhancing the user comfort. Furthermore, the raised air diffuser structure 641 disperses and diffuses the airflow, effectively reducing wind speed and improving the windless airflow effect, further enhancing the comfort of the air conditioner 1. Additionally, the air blown by the fan body 52, after passing through the raised air diffuser structure 641, does not directly impact the front panel 14, thus reducing noise generated by the impact and helping to lower noise levels in windless mode.

[0132] Specifically, such as Figure 22 , Figure 23 , Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, the raised air dissipation structure 641 is disposed on the fan grille 64.

[0133] Specifically, such as Figure 23 As shown, the side of the fan grille 64 closest to the outer cover 72 is designated as the first region 642, the central region of the fan grille 64 is designated as the second region 643, and the side of the fan grille 64 closest to the center of the fan shield 60 is designated as the third region 644.

[0134] Specifically, such as Figure 23 , Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, the raised airflow structure 641 includes a first protrusion 6411, a second protrusion 6412, and a third protrusion 6413. The first protrusion 6411 is disposed on the first region 642, the second protrusion 6412 is disposed on the second region 643, and the third protrusion 6413 is disposed on the second region 643.

[0135] Specifically, the shape of the raised air diffuser structure 641 is not limited. The shape of the raised air diffuser structure 641 can be set as a pyramid, or it can be set as a sphere.

[0136] Preferred, such as Figure 25 As shown, in this embodiment, the shape of the raised air-diffusing structure 641 can also be set to spherical. The spherical shape can reduce wind resistance, improve air circulation performance, increase wind speed, and increase air volume.

[0137] The diameter of the first protrusion 6411 is set to D1, the diameter of the second protrusion 6412 is set to D2, and the diameter of the third protrusion 6413 is set to D3.

[0138] Specifically, such as Figure 23 , Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, the sizes of the first protrusion 6411, the second protrusion 6412, and the third protrusion 6413 are not limited.

[0139] More specifically, the diameter of the first protrusion 6411 is set to D1 = D2 * 1 / 2 + 0.4, and the diameter of the third protrusion 6413 is set to D3 = D2 * 1 / 2 + D1 * 1 / 2. This setting, on the one hand, further facilitates multiple collisions between the heat exchange air and the natural wind, thereby making the heat exchange air and the natural wind mix evenly, thus improving the gentleness of the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner 1 and thus improving the user comfort of the air conditioner 1; on the other hand, it further facilitates the dispersion and diffusion of airflow, thereby effectively reducing wind speed, improving the windless air dispersion effect, improving the gentleness of the air outlet speed of the air conditioner 1, and thus improving the comfort of the air conditioner 1; in addition, it also helps to reduce the noise of air impacting the front panel 14 in windless mode.

[0140] The triangle formed by the center line connecting the first installation space 81, the second installation space 82, and the third installation space 83 is interconnected with the raised air diffusion structure 641. The two work together to further improve the windless air diffusion effect, enhance the gentleness of the air outlet temperature and speed of the air conditioner 1, and thus improve the comfort of the air conditioner 1. On the other hand, it also helps to reduce the noise of air impacting the front panel 14 in windless mode. In addition, it can increase the airflow diffusion range and improve the cooling effect of the air conditioner 1.

[0141] Specifically, such as Figure 26 , Figure 27 , Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown, a fan motor 54 is mounted on the fan assembly 50, and a motor cover 55 is mounted on the fan motor 54. The motor cover 55 is detachably connected to the fan motor 54.

[0142] This feature allows any damaged structure to be disassembled and replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement and significantly reducing maintenance costs.

[0143] More specifically, such as Figure 26 As shown, a motor mounting part 65 is provided on the fan protective cover 60, and the fan motor 54 is installed in the motor mounting part 65.

[0144] More specifically, such as Figure 26 As shown, mounting posts 651 are provided inside the motor mounting part 65, and the mounting posts 651 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fan motor 54.

[0145] More specifically, such as Figure 26As shown, a positioning protrusion 541 is provided on the fan motor 54. The positioning protrusion 541 is located on the side of the fan motor 54 near the motor cover 55 and extends towards the front panel 14. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the fan motor 54 and the motor cover 55, and also ensures that the positioning protrusion 541 is not covered by the motor cover 55, thus facilitating heat dissipation of the fan motor 54.

[0146] More specifically, such as Figure 26 As shown, a wiring section 542 is also provided on the fan motor 54. This arrangement facilitates the wiring of the fan motor 54.

[0147] More specifically, such as Figure 27 and Figure 28 As shown, a third positioning hole 551 is provided on the motor cover 55, and the third positioning hole 551 cooperates with the positioning protrusion 541.

[0148] More specifically, such as Figure 27 and Figure 28 As shown, a third mounting hole 553 is provided on the motor cover 55, and the third mounting hole 553 cooperates with the mounting post 651. This arrangement improves the installation stability of the motor cover 55 and the fan motor 54.

[0149] More specifically, such as Figure 27 and Figure 28 As shown, a wiring groove 552 is provided on the motor cover 55, and the wiring groove 552 cooperates with the wiring part 542. This arrangement facilitates the wiring of the fan motor 54.

[0150] A reinforcing protrusion 554 is provided on the third positioning hole 551. This feature improves the installation stability of the motor cover 55 and the fan motor 54.

[0151] The present invention provides an air outlet assembly, which, compared with the prior art, has the following advantages:

[0152] 1) The air outlet component of the present invention forms a triangular structure by connecting the centers of the first installation space, the second installation space and the third installation space. On the one hand, the triangular structure has stability, which improves the structural stability of the air conditioner; on the other hand, it lowers the overall center of gravity of the air conditioner, making it less likely to tip over or become unstable, further improving the structural stability of the air conditioner; in addition, it also forms a triangular air outlet, thereby improving the windless air dissipation effect and thus enhancing the comfort of the air conditioner.

[0153] 2) The air outlet component of the present invention has a raised air diffuser structure on the fan grille. The raised air diffuser structure facilitates multiple collisions between the heat exchange air and the natural air, thereby making the heat exchange air and the natural air mix evenly, thus improving the gentleness of the air outlet of the air conditioner and thus improving the comfort of the air conditioner. On the other hand, the raised air diffuser structure disperses and diffuses the airflow, thereby effectively reducing the wind speed and improving the windless air diffusion effect, thus improving the comfort of the air conditioner. In addition, the air blown by the fan body will not directly impact the front panel after passing through the raised air diffuser structure, so it is less likely to impact the front panel and generate noise, which helps to reduce noise in the windless mode.

[0154] 3) In the air outlet assembly described in this invention, the air duct mounting body is slidably snapped onto the housing assembly, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the air duct mounting body and the housing assembly, thereby improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0155] 4) The air outlet assembly of the present invention has a fan assembly that is rotatably snapped onto the air duct mounting body, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the air duct mounting body and the fan assembly, and improves the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0156] 5) In the air outlet assembly described in this invention, the motor cover is detachably connected to the fan motor, which improves the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0157] Example 2

[0158] This embodiment proposes an air outlet component, which differs from Embodiment 1 in that, Figure 6 As shown, the radii of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 can also be set to be different from the radius of the first installation space 81.

[0159] More specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the radii of the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 can be set to half the radius of the first installation space 81. This arrangement makes the overall structure of the air conditioner 1 compact, thereby improving the structural stability of the air conditioner 1.

[0160] Unlike Example 1, as Figure 6 As shown, the second installation space 82 and the third installation space 83 are located on the right side of the air duct mounting body 80, and correspondingly, the first installation space 81 is located on the left side of the air duct mounting body 80.

[0161] This design also increases the cross-section of the housing assembly 10, resulting in a larger contact area between the lower panel 26 of the air conditioner 1 and the ground, making it more stable to place.

[0162] Example 3

[0163] This embodiment proposes an air conditioner that uses an air outlet assembly as described in either Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.

[0164] In addition to the air outlet assembly structure, the air conditioner also includes other related components such as a compressor, a heat exchanger, and an expansion valve. Since the specific structure and assembly relationship of these related components are existing technologies, they will not be described in detail here.

[0165] The advantages of the air conditioner described above over the prior art are the same as those of the air outlet component mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0166] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
