Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application filed on December 5, 2016, entitled "A Wall-Mounted Air Conditioner Structure with Large Air Intake Area" with application number 201611103469.3. Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to a wall-mounted air conditioning structure. Background Technology
[0003] In the field of wall-mounted air conditioner indoor units, the back of the indoor unit is flush with the wall, and the air intake method is from the top, bottom, left, right, one or more sides. The air intake surface has two forms: open and fixed.
[0004] The disadvantages of an open air intake are that dust and other debris can easily enter when the air conditioner is not in use, affecting its energy efficiency. At the same time, the entry of various insects can easily lead to the growth of bacteria, affecting human health. Fixed air intakes are often limited in design, with a small air intake area and high air intake resistance, which is not conducive to improving the energy efficiency of the air conditioner and limits the increase in air volume.
[0005] Therefore, while ensuring the integrity and aesthetic value of the appearance, how to achieve the diversity of air intake and exhaust in air conditioners has become a major research focus for designers. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a wall-mounted air conditioner structure with low air intake resistance and large air intake area in light of the current state of the technology.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: the wall-mounted air conditioner structure with a large air intake area includes an indoor wall-mounted unit, and an air intake is provided on the back of the wall-mounted unit; the wall-mounted unit is rotatably mounted on the wall through a rotating mechanism.
[0008] When the unit is off, the back of the wall-mounted air conditioner is flush against the wall. When the unit is on, the air conditioner rotates under the action of the rotating mechanism to create a certain angle between the air conditioner and the wall.
[0009] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a base connected to the wall mount, the lower edge of the base being hinged to a pedestal, the upper edge of the base being connected to a telescopic assembly, and the pedestal being mounted on a wall.
[0010] Preferably, a sliding hole can be provided in the middle of the base; one end of the pull rod is hinged to the base, and the other end is hinged in the sliding hole.
[0011] The telescopic assembly may include a motor mounted on the base, the output shaft of the motor being connected to a gear, the gear meshing with a rack, and the rack being fixed to the base.
[0012] The rack is provided with a guide hole;
[0013] The motor is housed inside a motor housing, and a connecting rod is connected to the motor housing. The connecting rod is slidably limited within the guide hole.
[0014] Alternatively, the telescopic assembly includes a toothed plate that is motive-connected to the base;
[0015] The motor is mounted on the base, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to a drive gear, which meshes with the gear plate.
[0016] The motor is installed inside a motor housing, which is positioned on the base.
[0017] Alternatively, the telescopic assembly includes a guide rod fixed to the base, the guide rod having a guide hole;
[0018] The base is provided with a guide post, which is slidably limited within the guide hole;
[0019] The middle part of the drive rod is hinged to the base, the lower end of the drive rod is hinged to the base, and the upper end of the drive rod is eccentrically hinged to the turntable.
[0020] The output shaft of the motor is rotatably connected to the turntable; the motor and the turntable are positioned relative to the base.
[0021] The base is provided with a connecting plate, and the connecting plate is provided with a limiting post, which is hinged to the middle of the drive rod.
[0022] Alternatively, the rotating mechanism may include a rotating shaft connected to the wall mount, the rotating shaft being hinged to the lower part of the wall mount, the rotating shaft being connected to a base, a pull rope being connected between the upper part of the wall mount and the base or wall, and a positioning component being provided between the wall mount and the base or wall; the base is mounted on the wall.
[0023] The back of the device is provided with a socket for accommodating the rotating shaft.
[0024] The positioning component includes a hook disposed on the base or wall, and correspondingly, the back of the mounting bracket is provided with a latching element for engaging the hook. The latching element may be a slot, a pull ring, a hook, etc.
[0025] Compared with existing technologies, the wall-mounted air conditioner structure with a large air intake area provided by this invention is designed to be rotatable when turned on, with an air intake also provided on its back. When the air conditioner is turned on, it rotates under the action of the rotating mechanism, creating a gap between its back and the wall. This allows air to enter the air conditioner from the back as well, resulting in a large air intake area, low air intake resistance, and a significant increase in air volume. Furthermore, when the wall-mounted unit is tilted, the air blown out is tilted downwards, increasing the vertical sweeping angle and shortening the distance between the air landing point and the air outlet, thereby improving temperature regulation efficiency and increasing comfort.

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0040] Example 1
[0041] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the structure of this wall-mounted air conditioner with a large air intake area includes:
[0042] Base 2 is used to install an indoor wall-mounted air unit (not shown in the figure); the front of the unit has an air outlet, and the back of the unit has an air inlet (not shown in the figure); its lower edge is hinged to the base 3, and its upper edge is connected to the base 3 via a telescopic assembly. By extending and retracting the telescopic assembly, the upper edge of the base 2 can swing relative to the base 3, thereby tilting or closing the base 2 onto the base 3.
[0043] The base 3 is fixed to the mounting wall.
[0044] Pull lever 5, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a sliding hole 21 is located in the middle of base 2 and base 3 to provide additional tension when the base is opened, making the hanger more stable. Base 2 has a sliding hole 21 in the middle. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown; one end of the pull rod 5 is hinged to the base 3, and the other end is hinged in the sliding hole 21.
[0045] In this embodiment, the telescopic component includes a motor 4 mounted on a base 2. The output shaft of the motor 4 is connected to a gear 42, which meshes with a rack 43. The rack 43 is fixed to the base 3.
[0046] The rack 43 is provided with a guide hole 44; the motor 4 is installed in the motor box 41, and the motor box 41 is connected to a connecting rod 46, which is slidably limited in the guide hole 44.
[0047] When the air conditioner is started, the motor rotates forward, driving the gear to rotate along the rack, which in turn causes the motor, motor box, and the upper part of the base to move outward together. This causes the wall-mounted unit to tilt relative to the base, i.e., the wall, allowing air to enter from the back of the unit, increasing the air intake area and reducing air intake resistance.
[0048] When the air conditioner is turned off, the motor reverses and drives the base to close onto the base.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the telescopic component in this embodiment includes:
[0051] The toothed plate 61 is fixedly connected to the base 2; the motor 4 is mounted on the base 3 and installed inside the motor box 41, which is fixed to the base 3; the output shaft of the motor is connected to the gear 63, which meshes with the toothed plate 61.
[0052] When the air conditioner is turned on, the motor works simultaneously, driving the gears to rotate and moving the gear plate outward. This causes the base and the wall-mounted unit installed on it to move outward together, thus tilting the wall-mounted unit relative to the base, i.e., the wall. This allows air to enter from the back of the unit, increasing the air intake area and reducing air intake resistance.
[0053] When the air conditioner is turned off, the motor reverses and drives the base to close onto the base.
[0054] The rest of the content is the same as in Example 1.
[0055] Example 3
[0056] like Figures 8 to 10 As shown, the telescopic component in this embodiment includes:
[0057] The guide rod 71 is fixed on the base 3 and has a guide hole 72; the base 2 has a guide post 22, which is slidably limited within the guide hole 72.
[0058] The middle part of the drive rod 73 is hinged to the base 3, the lower end of the drive rod 73 is hinged to the base 2, the upper end of the drive rod 73 is provided with a connecting hole 75, and the turntable 74 is provided with an eccentric column 76, which is slidably hinged in the connecting hole 75 on the turntable 74.
[0059] The output shaft of motor 4 is connected to turntable 74 and can drive turntable 74 to rotate; motor 4 is set in motor box 41, motor box is fixed on base 3, and turntable 74 is positioned relative to base 3.
[0060] The base 3 is provided with a connecting plate 31, and the connecting plate 31 is provided with a limiting post 32. The limiting post 32 is hinged to the middle of the drive rod 73.
[0061] When the air conditioner is started, the motor works simultaneously, driving the turntable to rotate. Since the upper end of the drive rod is eccentrically connected to the turntable, the rotation of the turntable will drive the drive rod to rotate around the limit post as the axis, thereby driving the upper end of the connecting plate to slide outward along the guide hole and open the wall unit. When the air conditioner is turned off, the motor reverses and drives the base to close onto the base.
[0062] The rest of the content is the same as in Example 1.
[0063] Example 4
[0064] like Figures 11 to 13As shown, in this embodiment, the wall-mounted unit 1 has an air outlet 12 on its front side. The main body 1 of the wall-mounted unit 1 has air inlets 11 on the top, bottom, left, right and back sides. The air inlets 11 are air inlet grilles with axial flow fan blades 4 inside. The wall has a base 3 for mounting the wall-mounted unit 1. A rotating shaft 2' is horizontally provided at the lower back of the wall-mounted unit 1. The lower back of the wall-mounted unit 1 has an arc-shaped groove (not shown in the figure) for the rotating shaft 2' to be inserted. The rotating shaft 2' is fixed on the base 3.
[0065] The base 3 is also provided with a hook 13, and correspondingly, the back of the hanging device 1 is provided with a slot (not shown in the figure); a pull rope 14 is also provided between the upper part of the hanging device 1 and the base 3 to limit the rotation angle of the hanging device 1. The pull rope 14 can also be replaced by a telescopic rod.
[0066] When the air conditioner is turned on, the connection between the hook 13 and the slot 14 is released, and the wall-mounted unit 1 rotates automatically along the shaft. When it rotates to a certain angle (30° in this embodiment), the wall-mounted unit 1 is positioned under the action of the pull rope 14, exposing the air inlet on the back of the wall-mounted unit 1. By having the air inlet on the back of the wall-mounted unit 1 cooperate with other air inlets to simultaneously intake air, the air intake volume is greatly increased, and the temperature adjustment rate is improved. At this time, because the wall-mounted unit 1 is tilted downward, the air outlet 12 is tilted downward, which increases the vertical sweeping angle, shortens the distance between the air landing position and the air outlet, and improves comfort.
[0067] After the work is completed, push the wall mount 1 backward. The hook 13 will then engage with the slot 14, and the wall mount 1 will be attached to the wall.
