[0049] The air duct member 200 is arranged in the housing 100, and an air supply duct 210 is arranged in the air duct member 200. An air outlet chamber 300 is arranged between the front side of the air supply duct 210 and the air outlet grille 110, and the air outlet chamber 300 is in communication with the air supply duct 210. Preferably, the air supply duct 210 is gradually outwardly expanded along the air supply direction.

[0050] The guide air assembly 400 is arranged in the air outlet chamber 300, and is used to limit or allow the flow of the air flow flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to at least part of the air outlet holes 120 and adjust the air outlet direction of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10.

[0054] The driving mechanism can control the independent rotation of the first deflector 410 and the second deflector 420, so that the rotation direction and the rotation angle of the first deflector 410 and the second deflector 420 can be independently controlled. The driving mechanism is used to drive the first deflector 410 and the second deflector 420 to rotate respectively, so that the first deflector 410 and the second deflector 420 have a closing position (such as Figure 2 ) closing the air outlet holes 120 in the middle region of the air outlet grating 110, a first opening position (such as Figure 3 ) opening the air outlet holes 120 in the middle region of the air outlet grating 110 and limiting the flow of the air flow flowing out of the air supply air duct 210 to the air outlet holes 120 in one side region of the left and right sides of the air outlet grating 110, and a second opening position (such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 ).

[0055] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2As shown in FIG. 1, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the closed position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 close the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 to limit the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 and allow the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left and to the right at the same time.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 2, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the first open position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 and limit the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110 to guide the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to only the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the front. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 3, when one of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 is in the first open position and the other is in the closed position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in part of the middle region of the air grating 110 and allow the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left and to the front at the same time or to the right and to the front at the same time.

[0057] Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 4, in one embodiment, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 while allowing the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left, to the right, and to the front at the same time. Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 4, in one embodiment, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 while allowing the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left, to the right, and to the front at the same time.

[0058] Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 4, in one embodiment, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 while allowing the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left, to the right, and to the front at the same time. Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 4, in one embodiment, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 open the air outlets 120 in the middle region of the air grating 110 while allowing the flow of air flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to the air outlets 120 in one of the left and right regions of the air grating 110, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left, to the right, and to the front at the same time.

[0059] ​​The positions of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 can have various combinations, realizing free combination adjustment of different air volume and air direction, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 has various air supply modes such as left air supply, right air supply, front air supply, left and right air supply, and front air supply, thereby facilitating better user experience. Meanwhile, the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 is provided with the air outlet grilles 110 on the front side, the left side and the right side, and cooperates with the air guide assembly 400 for adjusting the air outlet direction of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 can perform air outlet on the left side, the right side and the front side, effectively increasing the air outlet range, thereby making the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 have a wide air supply range.

[0060] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 2 to 7 The air outlet grilles 110 include a first grille bar group 111, a second grille bar group 112 and a third grille bar group 113. The first grille bar group 111 is located in the middle region in front of the air outlet cavity 300. The second grille bar group 112 is located in the left side region in front of the left side of the air outlet cavity 300. The third grille bar group 113 is located in the right side region in front of the right side of the air outlet cavity 300. The grille bars of each grille bar group are arranged in the up-down direction, and the air outlet holes 120 are located between any two grille bars.

[0061] The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 has a larger air outlet area, a larger air outlet range and higher air outlet efficiency compared with the prior art in which only one fixed air outlet is provided on the front side, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0062] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 2 to 7 The rotation axis of the first guide plate 410 is arranged near the first grille bar group 111 and the second grille bar group 112, and the rotation axis of the second guide plate 420 is arranged near the first grille bar group 111 and the third grille bar group 113. In this embodiment, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are arranged at positions near the first grille bar group 111 in the air outlet cavity 300. The first guide plate 410 is located to the left of the second guide plate 420. The rotation axis of the first guide plate 410 is arranged near the left end of the first guide plate 410, and the rotation axis of the second guide plate 420 is arranged near the right end of the second guide plate 420.

[0063] As shown in Figure 2As shown, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the closed position, the side edges of the two away from the rotation axis are overlapped to close the air outlets 120 on the first lattice strip group 111, so as to guide the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the outside of the shell 100 through the air outlets 120 on the second lattice strip group 112 and the third lattice strip group 113, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the left and to the right at the same time.

[0064] As shown in FIG. 4, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are rotatably arranged on the air supply air duct 210. Figure 3 As shown, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the first open position, the side edges of the two away from the rotation axis are overlapped with the inner wall of the air supply air duct 210 to completely open the air outlets 120 on the first lattice strip group 111, and completely limit the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlets 120 on the second lattice strip group 112 and the third lattice strip group 113, so as to guide the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the outside of the shell 100 through the air outlets 120 on the first lattice strip group 111, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the front.

[0065] As shown in FIG. 4, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are rotatably arranged on the air supply air duct 210. Figure 4 As shown, when the first guide plate 410 is in the first open position and the second guide plate 420 is in the closed position, the side edge of the first guide plate 410 away from the rotation axis is overlapped with the inner wall of the air supply air duct 210 to open the air outlets 120 on the left side area of the first lattice strip group 111, and completely limit the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlets 120 on the second lattice strip group 112, and the second guide plate 420 is arranged in close contact with the first lattice strip group 111 to close the air outlets 120 on the right side area of the first lattice strip group 111, so as to guide the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the outside of the shell 100 through the air outlets 120 on the left side area of the first lattice strip group 111 and the third lattice strip group 113, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the front and to the right.

[0066] As shown in FIG. 4, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are rotatably arranged on the air supply air duct 210. Figure 5 As shown, when the first guide plate 410 is in the closed position and the second guide plate 420 is in the first open position, the first guide plate 410 is arranged in close contact with the first lattice strip group 111 to close the air outlets 120 on the left side area of the first lattice strip group 111, and the side edge of the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis is overlapped with the inner wall of the air supply air duct 210 to open the air outlets 120 on the right side area of the first lattice strip group 111, and completely limit the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlets 120 on the third lattice strip group 113, so as to guide the airflow out of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the outside of the shell 100 through the air outlets 120 on the right side area of the first lattice strip group 111 and the second lattice strip group 112, so that the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air to the front and to the left.

[0067] As shown in FIG. 4, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are rotatably arranged on the air supply air duct 210.Figure 6 As shown, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, there is an air outlet gap between their sides away from the rotation axis to open the air outlet 120 on the left side of the first grille bar group 111, and there is an air outlet gap between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis and the inner wall of the air supply duct 210. At this time, the width P of the air outlet interval between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis is greater than the width K of the air outlet interval between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis and the inner wall of the air supply duct 210. This guides most of the airflow flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to flow to the outside of the housing 100 through the air outlet holes 120 on the first grille bar group 111 and a small part through the second grille bar group 112 and the third grille bar group 113. This allows the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 to supply air in a way that is mainly forward air outlet and secondarily left and right air outlet.

[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the second open position, and there is an air outlet gap between the sides of the two away from the rotation axis to open the air outlet 120 on the left side of the first grille bar group 111. There is also an air outlet gap between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis and the inner wall of the air supply duct 210. At this time, the width M of the air outlet interval between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis is smaller than the width N of the air outlet interval between the sides of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 away from the rotation axis and the inner wall of the air supply duct 210. This guides most of the airflow flowing out of the air supply duct 210 to flow to the outside of the housing 100 through the second grille bar group 112 and the third grille bar group 113, and a small part through the air outlet hole 120 on the first grille bar group 111. This results in the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 discharging air mainly to the left and right, and secondarily to the front.

[0069] Of course, the combination of the positions of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 of the present invention includes, but is not limited to, the aforementioned combination methods. The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 of the present invention can also adjust the rotation angle of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 according to user needs to form a different combination of the positions of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 than in the above embodiments, thereby achieving more diversified air supply methods and improving the user experience.

[0070] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2As shown, the width D of the first grid bar group 111 is 0.8-1.2 times the width d of the air outlet 211 of the air supply duct 210, and the first grid bar group 111 is arranged opposite to the air outlet 211. Preferably, the width D of the first grid bar group 111 is equal to the width d of the air outlet 211 of the air supply duct 210. Further, in the case that the air outlet holes 120 on the first grid bar group 111 are opened, the air outlet efficiency of the air outlet forward is improved, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0071] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are arranged on the left and right sides of the air outlet holes 120 on the first grid bar group 111, respectively. Figure 2 As shown, the sum of the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 is the same as the width D of the first grid bar group 111. At this time, when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both in the closed position, the side edges away from the rotation axis of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are overlapped, and the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 are both arranged in close contact with the first grid bar group 111, so as to ensure that the air outlet holes 120 on the first grid bar group 111 are completely closed, thereby improving the stability of the air outlet of the upright air conditioner indoor unit 10 to the left and to the right at the same time.

[0072] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are the same. Figure 2 As shown, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are the same. Thus, under the condition that other operating parameters are the same, the air volume of the air outlet of the upright air conditioner indoor unit 10 when air is outlet to the front and to the right is the same as that when air is outlet to the front and to the left, and the air outlet angle is mirror-inverted, so as to improve the user experience.

[0073] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are the same. Figure 4 As shown, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are 8-20 times the width L of the air outlet hole 120, so that the air outlet hole 120 has an appropriate width, so as to ensure the uniformity of the front panel of the upright air conditioner indoor unit 10 in appearance while ensuring the air outlet efficiency, thereby further improving the user experience.

[0074] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are the same. Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are greater than the thickness T of the air outlet cavity 300 in the front-rear direction, so as to ensure that when the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 rotate from the closed position to the first open position, the side edges away from the rotation axis of the first guide plate 410 and the second guide plate 420 can be tightly overlapped with the inner wall of the air supply duct 210, thereby stopping rotation and being stable at the first open position, and further ensuring the operating stability of the upright air conditioner indoor unit 10.

[0075] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4, the width B of the first guide plate 410 and the width C of the second guide plate 420 are the same. Figures 2 to 7As shown, the air guide assembly 400 can further include a swing leaf 430. The swing leaf 430 is rotatably arranged in the air supply air duct 210 and extends in the up-down direction, with the rotation axis arranged in the up-down direction. The driving mechanism can further be configured to drive the swing leaf 430 to rotate, so that the swing leaf 430 has a first air supply position (as shown in Figure 2 、 3 Fig. 6 and Fig. 7) to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlet holes 120 of the middle region of the air outlet grille 110, a second air supply position (as shown in Figure 5 ) to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlet holes 120 of the left region of the air outlet grille 110, and a third air supply position (as shown in Figure 4 ) to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to flow to the air outlet holes 120 of the right region of the air outlet grille 110.

[0076] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 、 3 Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, when the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 blows air symmetrically in the left-right direction, the swing leaf 430 is in the first air supply position to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to blow air uniformly on both sides of the air supply air duct 210. As shown in Figure 5 , when the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 mainly blows air to the left, the swing leaf 430 is in the second air supply position to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to blow air to the left. As shown in Figure 4 , when the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 mainly blows air to the right, the swing leaf 430 is in the third air supply position to guide the airflow of the air supply air duct 210 to blow air to the right. Thus, the air guide assembly 400 of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10 of the present application can better complete the adjustment of the air outlet direction of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 10, thereby further improving the user's experience.
